00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,900
You just published the dossier
Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.

2
00:00:04,170 --> 00:00:07,530
Thursday, January 12 2017. And
this is your award winning get

3
00:00:07,530 --> 00:00:11,460
my nation media assassination
episode eight matter for this is

4
00:00:11,460 --> 00:00:15,900
no agenda. streaming all that is
golden showering the internet

5
00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:18,120
with deconstruction and
broadcasting live from the

6
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,880
darkest corners of the internet
here in Austin J Haas Chi Minh

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,700
region 6am morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry

8
00:00:23,850 --> 00:00:27,990
and from Northern Silicon Valley
without all the puns, I'm John

9
00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:30,990
C. Dvorak. Greg Levin Buzzkill.

10
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,010
Figured I'd get them out of the
way right at the top just said,

11
00:00:35,010 --> 00:00:37,290
we're done. Yeah, we're done
with it. We're done with it.

12
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:43,590
Yes. You think? Yeah, of course.
Ah, yeah. It's been quite an

13
00:00:43,590 --> 00:00:46,830
interesting couple of days. Oh,
speaking of speaking of the

14
00:00:46,830 --> 00:00:51,570
opening of the show. I would
like you to know that I feel I

15
00:00:51,570 --> 00:00:58,170
miss Plato. Plato says, you do?
Yes. And I feel you might want

16
00:00:58,170 --> 00:01:03,390
to reconsider bringing him back
because London University

17
00:01:03,390 --> 00:01:08,700
students are demanding Plato be
dropped from courses because

18
00:01:08,970 --> 00:01:15,540
they're old white guys. Plato
and who else? Someone else? But

19
00:01:15,540 --> 00:01:15,900
Plato.

20
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:22,560
Aristotle. discards just arrows.
There's got this, Socrates. He's

21
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:23,790
gotta go. Yeah.

22
00:01:23,820 --> 00:01:27,060
And this is apparently a not a
joke. They really,

23
00:01:27,330 --> 00:01:30,960
I know, this is a worldwide
phenomenon. That's isn't

24
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:35,100
happening here to really? Yeah.
Oh, yeah, definitely.

25
00:01:35,220 --> 00:01:36,240
Definitely. Definitely.

26
00:01:39,810 --> 00:01:44,670
Well, I'm not quite sure where
to start. Because it pretty much

27
00:01:44,670 --> 00:01:47,310
what happened in the past few
days is the mainstream media

28
00:01:47,340 --> 00:01:52,440
fell apart, completely melted
down. And everybody knows it.

29
00:01:53,850 --> 00:01:59,040
It's really fantastic. The
credibility is, yeah, I mean, it

30
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,890
won't last more than a week. But
for now, I think it's kind of

31
00:02:01,890 --> 00:02:02,490
low.

32
00:02:03,149 --> 00:02:06,119
Well, hopefully people listen to
the whole show, because later in

33
00:02:06,119 --> 00:02:09,179
this show, I'll show some stuff.
That's it ended up covering up.

34
00:02:09,449 --> 00:02:11,339
It's been the distraction of the
week.

35
00:02:11,370 --> 00:02:15,030
Yes. Oh, there's tons of stuff
that was covering up I totally

36
00:02:15,030 --> 00:02:18,330
okay. Oh, yeah. There's great
stuff. So while everyone is

37
00:02:18,330 --> 00:02:22,080
like, Oh, I can't wait to hear
the show on Thursday. It's okay.

38
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,880
So we just started let's take a
look. What do you think? First

39
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,310
of all, you know, if we do it,
if we do it alphabet if we do it

40
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,040
chronologically, we should start
with Obama's

41
00:02:33,180 --> 00:02:37,290
a good. Yes, it is. Goodbye
speech. Now. Did you catch any

42
00:02:37,290 --> 00:02:37,710
of it?

43
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,920
Yes, I caught the whole thing.
Okay. And I actually have a

44
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:44,370
small clip. Oh, nice. Not that
small. But it's go bomb a

45
00:02:44,370 --> 00:02:44,880
goodbye.

46
00:02:44,940 --> 00:02:48,090
Now what I what I'm sorry to
interrupt while I was doing

47
00:02:48,090 --> 00:02:52,170
stuff. And I found out that
listening to CNN is so much

48
00:02:52,170 --> 00:02:56,010
better than then watching it.
And I put it on the Sonos and

49
00:02:56,010 --> 00:03:01,410
it's kind of it's kind of nice.
I don't know why, but it's much

50
00:03:01,410 --> 00:03:05,070
worse, much better than
watching. And what was my point

51
00:03:05,070 --> 00:03:05,730
about that?

52
00:03:06,209 --> 00:03:08,789
I don't know. Maybe it's the
hearing Obama's

53
00:03:08,850 --> 00:03:12,870
Oh, yes. Yeah, I heard him say
the change, say change a lot. We

54
00:03:12,870 --> 00:03:14,100
had a lot of change.

55
00:03:14,519 --> 00:03:18,329
Tons of the one thing that that
was that was bothersome to me is

56
00:03:18,329 --> 00:03:22,289
that I was watching it on CBS.
But it was on everything. And

57
00:03:22,889 --> 00:03:26,849
there was some ruckus going on.
Got a lot of work early part of

58
00:03:26,849 --> 00:03:29,039
the speech and it was being
interrupted. Nobody would put

59
00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:31,439
the cameras out. Just see what
it was. They eventually put the

60
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:33,809
camera out there for a few
seconds and said, and there's a

61
00:03:33,809 --> 00:03:36,689
guy holding up a sign people
grabbing at me standing up in

62
00:03:36,689 --> 00:03:38,879
like on top of a chair or
something that grabbing and

63
00:03:39,029 --> 00:03:43,349
trying to pull them down. Yeah.
And it's a sign said pardon us

64
00:03:43,349 --> 00:03:50,129
now. Huh. And he's yelling some
pardoning who are well, thank

65
00:03:50,129 --> 00:03:53,129
you, CBS and the rest of the
news media for not letting us

66
00:03:53,129 --> 00:03:57,509
know. I had no idea what this
was all about. There is

67
00:03:57,540 --> 00:04:08,070
word that Obama may pardon
Chelsea. Chelsea the man. Now

68
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:12,300
he's gonna throw here and Gitmo.
Chelsea Manning? Yes. Do you

69
00:04:12,300 --> 00:04:15,510
think that's going to happen?
No, I don't either. I don't know

70
00:04:15,510 --> 00:04:16,440
why they think that

71
00:04:17,790 --> 00:04:21,750
I would be stunned if he did, I
would actually have better

72
00:04:21,750 --> 00:04:25,530
feelings toward Obama if he did
that. But he won't do it and

73
00:04:25,530 --> 00:04:27,780
Trump won't do it. They're both
there. These are all just part

74
00:04:27,780 --> 00:04:31,350
of the machine, no matter what
we'd like to believe. All right.

75
00:04:31,350 --> 00:04:31,470
So

76
00:04:31,470 --> 00:04:32,850
you have a clip, you have a

77
00:04:33,180 --> 00:04:36,330
clip, I want to say a couple of
things before we do this. The

78
00:04:36,330 --> 00:04:40,380
speech was terrible. It was an
amalgam of a 2008 speech and

79
00:04:40,380 --> 00:04:43,800
it's 2012 speech and people had
shown some evidence of that.

80
00:04:44,940 --> 00:04:49,440
Using some of the same
phraseology and gimmicks he in

81
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,870
this is the part of the speech I
thought was the nut. This was

82
00:04:51,870 --> 00:04:56,340
the part that had what he wanted
to say in it. And it was to me,

83
00:04:56,370 --> 00:05:00,540
you know, week in more than a
few a few minutes. Few days in a

84
00:05:00,540 --> 00:05:04,980
few ways, and but here, and
there's also he uses an

85
00:05:04,980 --> 00:05:08,550
interesting word, which when I
looked it up was kind of made

86
00:05:08,550 --> 00:05:11,220
the whole speech, his whole
laundry list of complaints

87
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:13,800
redundant because it kind of
encompasses all of this stuff he

88
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,060
says but play play,

89
00:05:15,750 --> 00:05:18,720
we must guard against a
weakening of the values that

90
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:24,720
make us who we are. And that's
why for the past eight years,

91
00:05:25,830 --> 00:05:29,580
I've worked to put the fight
against terrorism on a firmer

92
00:05:29,610 --> 00:05:35,430
legal footing and to torture,
work to close Gitmo reformed our

93
00:05:35,430 --> 00:05:38,460
laws governing surveillance to
protect privacy and civil

94
00:05:38,460 --> 00:05:43,980
liberties exposed that's why I
reject discrimination against

95
00:05:44,010 --> 00:05:45,180
Muslim Americans

96
00:05:52,530 --> 00:05:55,890
I like to I works to close
Gitmo. That's pretty good.

97
00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:59,460
And the other one was, this is
why I reject discrimination.

98
00:05:59,460 --> 00:06:05,790
What is it? This is why I reject
discrimination. What what is why

99
00:06:05,790 --> 00:06:05,910
let's

100
00:06:05,910 --> 00:06:09,120
go back a little bit. This is
really this is good stuff. This

101
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:26,490
is this is the best part of it
yes,

102
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,800
this is actually if you could
have recorded a sound the sound

103
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,470
that face bag makes when he did
this speech, it would have

104
00:06:34,470 --> 00:06:39,090
sounded a bit like this. The
face bags were all I'm going to

105
00:06:39,090 --> 00:06:39,870
miss him

106
00:06:39,870 --> 00:06:41,160
so much.

107
00:06:41,789 --> 00:06:44,909
Yeah, the face bags. Also
according to Mimi, there's we

108
00:06:44,909 --> 00:06:47,969
have a friend that I adore. I'm
not going to mention her name,

109
00:06:47,969 --> 00:06:52,109
but she's all she does is she's
everyday she's posting it over

110
00:06:52,109 --> 00:06:53,459
and over and I'm still crying.

111
00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:56,760
I had a nice chat with Mimi,
which may come up later in the

112
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,080
show. Yes, hopefully it will.
Probably Well, let's continue.

113
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:16,020
That's why we cannot withdraw.
That's why we cannot withdraw

114
00:07:16,020 --> 00:07:18,450
from big global fights.

115
00:07:19,650 --> 00:07:21,180
Big global safe and

116
00:07:21,179 --> 00:07:24,779
democracy and human rights and
women's rights and LGBT rights.

117
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:32,159
No matter how imperfect our
efforts, no matter how expedient

118
00:07:32,189 --> 00:07:38,669
ignoring such values may seem.
That's part of defending

119
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:45,779
America. The fight against
extremism and intolerance and

120
00:07:45,779 --> 00:07:52,199
sectarianism and chauvinism. Why
are of a peace with a chauvinist

121
00:07:52,199 --> 00:07:53,099
authoritarianism.

122
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,680
Lots of isms isn't much there
today, isms. Now,

123
00:07:58,710 --> 00:08:01,800
Doug, go let's start stop right
here and go to the book of

124
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:07,650
knowledge and look up the
definition of Shogun chauvinism.

125
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,670
Pretty much everything he said
in there, sectarianism,

126
00:08:11,790 --> 00:08:15,870
xenophobia, everything that is,
it's a laundry list of

127
00:08:15,930 --> 00:08:18,780
chauvinism is a very interesting
word. People use it and here we

128
00:08:18,780 --> 00:08:21,150
go. male chauvinist pig
interesting,

129
00:08:21,180 --> 00:08:25,890
exaggerated or aggressive.
Patriotism is the first one. And

130
00:08:25,890 --> 00:08:29,640
the second one is excessive or
prejudice, loyalty or support

131
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,870
for one's own cause group or
gender. Hello, which is,

132
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,420
which is Obama? Yeah. Well,

133
00:08:36,419 --> 00:08:39,299
it's a it's Obama and Trump and
Clinton and everybody,

134
00:08:39,299 --> 00:08:42,239
everybody, Hitler. Hitler was a
chauvinist, Hitler. Hitler,

135
00:08:42,269 --> 00:08:47,699
Hitler. Wow, that's pretty good.
Let's listen to some more. And

136
00:08:47,699 --> 00:08:51,539
nationalist aggression. That
nationalist aggression.

137
00:08:53,130 --> 00:08:56,580
Yeah, yeah, he's against him.
He's against nationalist,

138
00:08:56,580 --> 00:08:59,520
aggressive This is, by the way,
if you backed it up and started

139
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:04,590
over and thought, this is a
promotion of the New World Order

140
00:09:04,650 --> 00:09:08,250
one world government, this is
the speech you'd give.

141
00:09:10,620 --> 00:09:13,710
Seriously, yeah. And meanwhile,
by the way, right after this

142
00:09:13,710 --> 00:09:16,500
clip, I've got another clip.
Because he's saying what, you

143
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:19,800
know, there's aggressive
nationalism. And then there's a

144
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:24,060
clip that follows this, which is
the doing you figure out which

145
00:09:24,060 --> 00:09:30,060
one it is, is the clip. There's
a clip that was done on NBC and

146
00:09:30,060 --> 00:09:35,010
it's about our troops. We have a
bunch of people we're running

147
00:09:35,010 --> 00:09:36,030
around. Can

148
00:09:36,030 --> 00:09:38,520
I just try something? Okay, just
try something for a minute.

149
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,070
Yeah, let me just see. Let me
just go back to the beginning of

150
00:09:41,070 --> 00:09:41,490
this clip.

151
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,030
We must guard against a
weakening of the values

152
00:09:55,830 --> 00:09:57,330
think I can do somewhere that I
gotta work?

153
00:09:57,900 --> 00:10:00,810
I think you should. Really good
speed. It's all worth it. So

154
00:10:00,810 --> 00:10:03,630
first ask Is there any way that
clip that follows this as NATO

155
00:10:03,630 --> 00:10:07,170
saber rattling? Because he talks
about nationalist aggression?

156
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,210
But I guess it's okay for NATO
to be on our watch with no,

157
00:10:12,210 --> 00:10:14,760
no, it's a defensive
organization. What speeds you

158
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,490
up? NATO is a defensive
organization.

159
00:10:17,699 --> 00:10:20,759
Oh, who are they defending when
they were bombing Libya? The

160
00:10:20,759 --> 00:10:21,629
Libyan people

161
00:10:21,660 --> 00:10:24,060
against the dictator? Okay.

162
00:10:24,090 --> 00:10:27,840
Landgraf. But it staged in
Crimea. When Russian forces

163
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,320
invaded what had been part of
Ukraine and seized it for the

164
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:36,300
Kremlin. America's response was
to beef up both its own force in

165
00:10:36,300 --> 00:10:40,590
Europe, and its support of NATO.
Though President Elect Donald

166
00:10:40,590 --> 00:10:44,100
Trump, who's called NATO
obsolete, says he now wants to

167
00:10:44,100 --> 00:10:47,640
pursue good relations with
Russia, all major general

168
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,990
Timothy McGuire, how quickly
could the new president as a

169
00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:55,740
gesture of goodwill to Russia,
turn this whole thing around and

170
00:10:55,740 --> 00:10:56,880
pull you all out? Again?

171
00:10:57,420 --> 00:11:00,510
I'm not going to speculate on
what the incoming President may

172
00:11:00,510 --> 00:11:05,580
or may not do. But I will tell
you this is in the interest of

173
00:11:05,580 --> 00:11:08,970
the United States Army to build
readiness.

174
00:11:09,630 --> 00:11:12,720
Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin has
already implied the European

175
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,070
buildup is stupid and
unrealistic. He said to think

176
00:11:17,070 --> 00:11:20,850
that Russia would attack anyone.
But for the US and its NATO

177
00:11:20,850 --> 00:11:27,480
allies. Extra deterrence never
hurts. But that deterrence comes

178
00:11:27,510 --> 00:11:31,440
at a price Scott and a hefty one
last year, the bill to the US

179
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,490
for bolstering European defense
came to $3.4 billion.

180
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,670
Liz Palmer for us tonight, Liz
Thank you.

181
00:11:40,350 --> 00:11:43,440
Yeah, I'm just throwing away
$3.4 billion just on these

182
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,830
exercises. And we have to haul
you know what you can't imagine

183
00:11:46,830 --> 00:11:51,420
what is it cost to ship we
shipped all the way to like, you

184
00:11:51,420 --> 00:11:52,050
know, he's stolen

185
00:11:52,050 --> 00:11:53,880
a whole crapload of tanks.

186
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,890
Tanks, what does it cost to ship
a tank and then ship it back?

187
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,670
He has a lot of in the south of
the of the Netherlands as well.

188
00:12:02,670 --> 00:12:05,250
And people are talking about
that. A lot of tanks

189
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,040
will cease are expensive to
ship.

190
00:12:08,970 --> 00:12:13,350
They're expensive. And the
mileage the gas mileage to ship.

191
00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:15,480
Gas mileage is horrible on those
things. The

192
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,590
gas mileage sucks.

193
00:12:18,810 --> 00:12:22,080
Alright, was there anyone that
was Obama that was Obama's, as I

194
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,340
said it was I got a lot of the
face bag feed if I'm going to

195
00:12:26,340 --> 00:12:28,440
miss it. That was the main
thing. I'm going to miss them so

196
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,170
much. And at first I didn't get
it people just posting without

197
00:12:31,170 --> 00:12:35,100
posting a link or a story. I
thought someone had died. It was

198
00:12:35,100 --> 00:12:39,420
in the MTV girl, you know, the
MTV alumni. So what happened is

199
00:12:39,420 --> 00:12:41,820
oh, I'm gonna miss him miss and
miss it. But there was no rip.

200
00:12:41,820 --> 00:12:45,570
So I'm like, No Love and Light.
What's going on? And I'd say

201
00:12:45,570 --> 00:12:47,670
okay, they're all watching Obama
and I get it.

202
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,450
I can't believe anybody watched
that speech.

203
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,790
It was he had all the right
elements. He had the you know,

204
00:12:56,790 --> 00:12:58,590
the big echo the big boomy
sound?

205
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,920
No, it wasn't done well. In
fact, I'm pretty sure the big

206
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,140
boomy sound he should have had
was not the one that was in

207
00:13:04,140 --> 00:13:07,830
play. I'm glad you mentioned
that. Because I've given

208
00:13:07,830 --> 00:13:12,990
speeches with the right sound
setups and the normal ones. And

209
00:13:12,990 --> 00:13:15,780
the right sound setup. Just for
people out there ever give a

210
00:13:15,780 --> 00:13:17,940
speech, if you can find a sound
engineer that knows what he's

211
00:13:17,940 --> 00:13:21,780
doing, he'll set this up for you
like this. The sound setup is

212
00:13:21,780 --> 00:13:26,010
that they spaced the speakers
out into this large audience and

213
00:13:26,010 --> 00:13:29,160
every one of the speakers is on
a certain delay that is that

214
00:13:29,190 --> 00:13:33,420
coincides with the speed of
sound 600 miles an hour or so.

215
00:13:34,110 --> 00:13:38,430
And a read through a computer
and so your voice is as if you

216
00:13:38,430 --> 00:13:42,750
were yelling from one spot. When
you hear your voice in the back

217
00:13:42,750 --> 00:13:45,960
of the room would be the time
that sound would actually get

218
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,250
there as though you were
shouting

219
00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:51,030
at speed of sound, I think is
that 600 Did you say that?

220
00:13:51,990 --> 00:13:54,330
600 miles an hour, something
like that. Okay, I don't know

221
00:13:54,330 --> 00:13:59,850
when? Okay, well, what it's in
that arena. Anyway, so they have

222
00:13:59,850 --> 00:14:02,820
the sound setup. So So that
sounds like what it sounds like

223
00:14:02,820 --> 00:14:08,280
your voice louder, all the way
to the end. And so you don't get

224
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,570
these echoes and you don't get
all this crap that you get. And

225
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,570
when I first was confronted with
this kind of setup, which is

226
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,470
that has a name somebody some
sound engineer will tell us. But

227
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,700
the sound guys will tell you
it's expensive to set up because

228
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:26,430
you have to have about these
arrays of speakers and they have

229
00:14:26,430 --> 00:14:29,730
to be the distance from you to
the speaker has to be major

230
00:14:29,850 --> 00:14:33,420
just right, it's 768 mph. Okay,

231
00:14:33,449 --> 00:14:36,809
now anyway, that's so that's all
figured in with the computer and

232
00:14:36,809 --> 00:14:39,869
it does. So when you first get
behind the mic on one of these

233
00:14:39,869 --> 00:14:44,399
setups and you say something,
holy crap. You think you're the

234
00:14:44,399 --> 00:14:45,119
voice that you think

235
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,320
you're the voice of God.
Exactly. That's huge. And so I

236
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,750
think therefore they got what he
wanted he wanted.

237
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,290
I was constantly hearing his
voice bouncing off the back

238
00:14:55,290 --> 00:14:55,650
wall.

239
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,740
There is a milestone it to
discuss just briefly because it

240
00:14:58,740 --> 00:15:04,500
saddens me tremendously Okay, I
am now officially one of those

241
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:05,010
people.

242
00:15:06,030 --> 00:15:08,340
Oh, you got the Twitter thing?

243
00:15:08,819 --> 00:15:12,629
No, no, no, no, I'm not
verified? No, no, no, it's much

244
00:15:12,629 --> 00:15:17,249
worse. I am not one of those
people who has his eyeglasses on

245
00:15:17,249 --> 00:15:18,749
a chain around his neck.

246
00:15:21,270 --> 00:15:25,110
Oh, geez, I know. I'm thinking
I'm thinking to drop in the

247
00:15:25,110 --> 00:15:25,470
show.

248
00:15:26,700 --> 00:15:30,330
This is it's all downhill from
here. We can probably write it

249
00:15:30,330 --> 00:15:32,880
for another couple of years. But
holy crap.

250
00:15:33,330 --> 00:15:36,690
Why are you doing this? Well,
you're doing this to yourself?

251
00:15:36,690 --> 00:15:36,810
Well,

252
00:15:36,810 --> 00:15:43,590
because I, I only use my glasses
indoors to see television or to

253
00:15:43,590 --> 00:15:46,620
look outside, obviously. And I
really don't need them, although

254
00:15:46,830 --> 00:15:51,180
it's fuzzy when I'm walking
around. But it's my focal length

255
00:15:51,180 --> 00:15:53,820
is all messed up. So I keep
putting my glasses down. And

256
00:15:53,820 --> 00:15:56,910
then of course, oh, I need my
glasses. Where are my glasses? I

257
00:15:56,910 --> 00:15:59,790
can never find my glasses. The
way I usually find them is by

258
00:15:59,790 --> 00:16:01,770
sitting on them and breaking
them.

259
00:16:02,970 --> 00:16:06,420
This has happened to you? Yes.
You just don't look where you're

260
00:16:06,420 --> 00:16:09,180
sitting. So this is the whoopee
cushion.

261
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:14,550
I can't see it. I just can't see
it. Anyway, so but I don't I'm

262
00:16:14,550 --> 00:16:17,850
not I'm not going out of the
house with this. Obviously. This

263
00:16:17,850 --> 00:16:22,740
just I need to have kind of a V
neck sweater this little crusty

264
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:23,310
and dirty.

265
00:16:24,270 --> 00:16:27,510
That would make it perfect. You
need patches on your elbows.

266
00:16:27,510 --> 00:16:27,870
Yes.

267
00:16:27,870 --> 00:16:33,120
And my eyebrows have to be crazy
out of control. Crazy. Yeah,

268
00:16:33,180 --> 00:16:33,870
definitely.

269
00:16:35,340 --> 00:16:36,090
However,

270
00:16:36,390 --> 00:16:37,440
sorry to hear that, ya

271
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,480
know, on a different topic.
Thank you very much for the

272
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:44,070
outstanding use of the word slug
in the newsletter. I love that

273
00:16:44,070 --> 00:16:48,630
slug man. I hadn't heard slug in
years. Good word. Yeah, my

274
00:16:48,630 --> 00:16:50,880
parents used to have schlock
parties, which I think now is

275
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,960
called a white elephant party.
Used to be called the schlock

276
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,860
party. And you know how to
select party works, right, you

277
00:16:58,860 --> 00:17:02,430
bring a piece of schlock which
is hard to define exactly what a

278
00:17:02,430 --> 00:17:03,000
piece of slot,

279
00:17:03,030 --> 00:17:06,330
you know what it is when you see
it, just like foreign Exactly.

280
00:17:07,980 --> 00:17:09,960
You're, for instance, your
Hillary Clinton laughing pen

281
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:14,460
that's a piece of schlock. It's
totally you know, is that

282
00:17:14,460 --> 00:17:18,540
ashtray with the, with the
Viennese glass? BitSight.

283
00:17:18,540 --> 00:17:21,630
Whatever. That's a slug and nice
word. We should we shouldn't be

284
00:17:21,630 --> 00:17:23,070
bringing more of these words
back.

285
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:26,910
Well, the newsletter was very
ineffective.

286
00:17:26,940 --> 00:17:31,620
I noticed that. Well, we can
talk. We can talk about that

287
00:17:31,620 --> 00:17:35,280
later. Anyway, let's let's get
into this report.

288
00:17:35,820 --> 00:17:40,500
Okay. Do you want to first I
want to say but let so many

289
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:43,170
angles we can go first. I want
everyone to know

290
00:17:43,170 --> 00:17:48,450
that there is a copy of the PDF
in the show notes. 894. Dot no

291
00:17:48,450 --> 00:17:49,680
agenda notes.com.

292
00:17:50,250 --> 00:17:52,050
There's also a link in the
newsletter.

293
00:17:53,220 --> 00:17:57,330
Yes. And it's well worth a read.
I mean, it's it's pretty fun to

294
00:17:57,330 --> 00:18:01,830
look over boring. Now, do you
have I'm sure you have a

295
00:18:01,830 --> 00:18:02,970
background of sorts.

296
00:18:04,290 --> 00:18:07,080
i Well, there's the one
background or the long one,

297
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,750
which I don't it's not even that
good. It's about the it combines

298
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:13,020
the information about the the
first press conference, NBC

299
00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:16,440
covered as a backgrounder. Now,
well, let's why don't we just

300
00:18:16,470 --> 00:18:18,600
net we before playing any
because why don't we explained

301
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:22,500
what happened? Yeah, that's
probably good. Now what happened

302
00:18:22,500 --> 00:18:27,150
was BuzzFeed, there's this old
memo that's been floating

303
00:18:27,150 --> 00:18:27,690
around. I

304
00:18:27,690 --> 00:18:29,910
have a question about that. I
have a question about that right

305
00:18:29,910 --> 00:18:33,210
off the bat. This old memo,
which apparently had been around

306
00:18:33,210 --> 00:18:35,790
since some say October, some
say,

307
00:18:35,940 --> 00:18:40,230
July? July? Yeah. Okay. But it
was rolled out in October.

308
00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:45,300
But of all Well, yes. Because
that douchebag David Corn. This

309
00:18:45,300 --> 00:18:48,210
is this is his source. That was
funny when I saw his name show

310
00:18:48,210 --> 00:18:54,540
up. But we did not hear the only
thing we heard about this is we

311
00:18:54,540 --> 00:18:56,760
knew there was a letter that
some Senator sent, we'd read

312
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,580
that on the show and said,
Something's going on. This was

313
00:18:59,730 --> 00:19:05,670
this must have been six, seven
weeks ago. But no one ever told

314
00:19:05,670 --> 00:19:10,320
us about this. I mean, we have a
lot of producers inside, you

315
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,930
know, different organizations. I
can't believe that no one even

316
00:19:12,930 --> 00:19:16,410
mentioned this to us. So this
was around that long. That's

317
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:16,920
that's

318
00:19:16,949 --> 00:19:21,989
interesting was as I but here's
what I here's my basis theory to

319
00:19:21,989 --> 00:19:26,159
start this a little bit. Corn is
an operator for the hill bots.

320
00:19:26,159 --> 00:19:32,219
He was a party operative for the
Democrats. Yeah. This was the

321
00:19:32,219 --> 00:19:34,799
thing that people shouldn't be
investigating us who paid for

322
00:19:34,799 --> 00:19:38,099
this report. We have really
don't have oh, well, I

323
00:19:38,100 --> 00:19:42,330
believe the Democratic party
that's what Greg Raff Glenn

324
00:19:42,330 --> 00:19:46,440
Greenwald wrote. He said this
was a guy who had previously

325
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,560
done stuff for the Democratic
for the Republicans, and he was

326
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,100
compiling a an intelligence
report on Donald Trump for the

327
00:19:53,100 --> 00:19:53,850
Democrats.

328
00:19:54,510 --> 00:19:58,710
Well, we do we know that for
sure. The Republicans are the

329
00:19:58,740 --> 00:20:02,370
cause of the here's what The
dates of the report the first

330
00:20:02,370 --> 00:20:05,700
parts of these reports before it
got lewd, the early ones, the

331
00:20:05,730 --> 00:20:08,280
early reports, which are all in
this document that you can

332
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,340
download. It's the different
reports all stacked together as

333
00:20:11,340 --> 00:20:14,520
one. Yes, it is. Yeah, it's a
compendium. So it starts during

334
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,100
the primaries. And I think Well,
ya know,

335
00:20:17,580 --> 00:20:21,900
according to Glenn Greenwald,
this guy had was what was worse

336
00:20:21,930 --> 00:20:24,390
first working for the
Republicans to get dirt on

337
00:20:24,390 --> 00:20:27,090
Trump. So it was the anti Trump
Republicans that right, that's

338
00:20:27,090 --> 00:20:27,630
the ones that got it.

339
00:20:28,050 --> 00:20:31,110
Got that right. Yeah, I agree.
But who was it? Oh,

340
00:20:31,890 --> 00:20:35,340
yeah. No, he has he mentioned
his name. Who? I'm gonna get to

341
00:20:35,340 --> 00:20:38,070
it. Hold on a second. Let me
see. Who's in the Glenn

342
00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:40,470
Greenwald article? I'm sure Tom
surprise, you didn't see that.

343
00:20:41,070 --> 00:20:44,940
He had the article. Greenwald
wrote, which I liked a lot was

344
00:20:44,940 --> 00:20:48,690
the deep state goes to war with
the president elect using

345
00:20:48,690 --> 00:20:53,640
unverified claims as Democrats
cheer. And of course, there is

346
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,040
some we do you need to talk
about that in the moment about

347
00:20:56,370 --> 00:20:57,270
is what is

348
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:58,740
what do I know who is what is
this?

349
00:20:58,980 --> 00:21:01,560
I'm gonna tell you what it is.
Here it is. Was this guy it was

350
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,810
like Steve, right or something
really plain

351
00:21:03,810 --> 00:21:06,600
name? No, no, no, you're talking
about steel? No,

352
00:21:06,630 --> 00:21:11,880
no, no. I'm looking for this
guy. Anyway, continue on. I'll

353
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,540
give you his name in

354
00:21:12,540 --> 00:21:16,170
a minute. Okay. You're talking
about the Republican who paid

355
00:21:16,170 --> 00:21:18,630
for it? No, I'm talking about
the guy who did it. But maybe

356
00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:22,710
maybe I'm not the guy who did it
is steal. From Orbis? Yes.

357
00:21:22,710 --> 00:21:25,200
That's the guy. Okay. You want
to know who paid for it? Well,

358
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,510
the Republicans, yes. You're
missing the point. I'm trying to

359
00:21:27,510 --> 00:21:29,580
figure out who paid for it.
That's what I say.

360
00:21:30,330 --> 00:21:33,090
McCain paid for it. Well, he had
the report. It seems the most

361
00:21:33,090 --> 00:21:36,960
obvious guy and he is the aihole
du jour. He hates Trump with the

362
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,640
passion. Yeah, I'd agree. That
is overlooked completely. And I

363
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,510
say well, I was I was given this
and by Dr. course like every

364
00:21:45,510 --> 00:21:47,220
good American should do. I
handled it all.

365
00:21:47,250 --> 00:21:50,160
Yeah. How did he do two guys who
got a hold of it. Harry Reid.

366
00:21:50,340 --> 00:21:55,380
got a hold of a copy. And but
McCain got one. How did McCain

367
00:21:55,380 --> 00:22:00,000
get? He froze? I think McCain
was working with either Jeb Bush

368
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:04,800
or with Rubio and they decided
to do this and then McCain got a

369
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,090
hold of it. I agree. Well, how
are we going to slipped? Here's

370
00:22:09,090 --> 00:22:12,540
like Rubio, how are we going to
slip this to the FBI? And don't

371
00:22:12,540 --> 00:22:15,900
know without looking suspicious?
We're gonna get caught. And I'll

372
00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:21,690
do it. I can do it. No, why not
running for anything? I can just

373
00:22:21,690 --> 00:22:25,080
do it. I'll do it. Yeah, because
I hate that guy. Trump. Yeah.

374
00:22:25,410 --> 00:22:29,100
Well, he probably got it from,
from his Nazi friends in

375
00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:32,010
Ukraine. And that guy's
incredible. The people he hangs

376
00:22:32,010 --> 00:22:38,160
out with is unreal. Yeah. Okay,
good. All right. So so so this

377
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,540
report goes in, and then the way
I understand it, that you know,

378
00:22:42,540 --> 00:22:45,570
so Okay, let's just say this
report was around fine. I find

379
00:22:45,570 --> 00:22:47,340
it hard to believe was around
that long. We didn't hear about

380
00:22:47,340 --> 00:22:51,480
it. But okay. Then the
President, I have a thought on

381
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,030
that, too. Will give me that
thought Now then.

382
00:22:54,180 --> 00:22:57,270
Well, first, let's go start with
the corn thing. Here's the way I

383
00:22:57,270 --> 00:22:59,910
saw it as as a as a situation

384
00:22:59,940 --> 00:23:02,760
and do we need to replay David
Korn for a second? What an idiot

385
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:03,540
That guy is? Because

386
00:23:03,570 --> 00:23:06,930
no, I don't think so. Okay. Beat
him up. Unless you have a

387
00:23:06,930 --> 00:23:09,180
special Clint. Oh, no, they
didn't bring him into the

388
00:23:09,180 --> 00:23:12,630
conversation during this era,
this little Tete that's been

389
00:23:12,630 --> 00:23:16,560
going on, but he will be? I
don't think so. At some point.

390
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,490
Yeah. Here's what I think
happened. The Republicans tried

391
00:23:20,490 --> 00:23:24,240
to bring this roll this out. And
if you look at the timeline of

392
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,690
the thing that really dirty
parts about the a will mention

393
00:23:27,690 --> 00:23:34,260
this. What happened was this
report claims that Trump went to

394
00:23:34,260 --> 00:23:38,670
the Ritz Carlton in Moscow, just
for the sole purpose of hiring

395
00:23:38,670 --> 00:23:42,780
two hookers. This is this is
this how nuts Trump must be for

396
00:23:42,780 --> 00:23:47,820
the sole purpose of hiring two
hookers to pee on the bed that

397
00:23:47,850 --> 00:23:51,000
Obama and Michelle slept in?
Because he hates them so much,

398
00:23:51,030 --> 00:23:53,940
which, by the way, is not a
golden shower to everyone who's

399
00:23:53,940 --> 00:23:57,510
making the jokes. No, it's not.
It's just peeing on the bed.

400
00:23:57,540 --> 00:24:01,020
It's like wetting the bed. Or
something like that. Something

401
00:24:01,020 --> 00:24:01,350
different.

402
00:24:01,379 --> 00:24:07,109
Yeah. Now, as an aside, I want
to play the Trump before I get

403
00:24:07,109 --> 00:24:09,209
to the point I'm trying to make,
but I want to get this out of

404
00:24:09,209 --> 00:24:12,689
the way. This is the Trump clip
describing security in hotel

405
00:24:12,689 --> 00:24:13,229
cameras.

406
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,180
When I leave our country, I'm a
very high profile person would

407
00:24:18,180 --> 00:24:18,690
you say?

408
00:24:21,330 --> 00:24:23,040
And so modest, I

409
00:24:23,250 --> 00:24:27,060
am extremely careful. I'm
surrounded by bodyguards. I'm

410
00:24:27,060 --> 00:24:31,290
surrounded by people. And I
always tell them anywhere, but I

411
00:24:31,290 --> 00:24:36,030
always tell them if I'm leaving
this country, be very careful.

412
00:24:36,810 --> 00:24:40,230
Because in your hotel rooms, and
no matter where you go, you're

413
00:24:40,230 --> 00:24:43,890
gonna probably have cameras, you
better be careful. Or you'll be

414
00:24:43,890 --> 00:24:48,990
watching yourself for nightly
television. Does anyone really

415
00:24:48,990 --> 00:24:52,560
believe that story? I'm also
very much of a germaphobe by the

416
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:53,880
way, that part

417
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:58,740
I love that. I you know, I can't
even shake your hand let alone

418
00:24:58,740 --> 00:25:00,450
have you pee in my bed. Ed.

419
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,650
I thought that was interesting.
Now, Mark Eames tweeted and I

420
00:25:04,650 --> 00:25:05,580
retweeted Can I

421
00:25:05,580 --> 00:25:09,420
Can I just relate a personal
story about the about Russia?

422
00:25:10,170 --> 00:25:14,340
Sure. I went to Moscow in 1988,
the Moscow music Peace Festival.

423
00:25:14,370 --> 00:25:19,380
This was before David Hasselhoff
brought down the wall, because

424
00:25:19,380 --> 00:25:24,180
we all know the Hoff did that.
And my manager at the time was

425
00:25:24,420 --> 00:25:29,040
LIBOR, LIBOR and cribs, LIBOR.
And cribs famous for managing

426
00:25:29,070 --> 00:25:32,280
Aerosmith and a couple other
bands like that. And they also

427
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,900
at the time, Steve Lieber manage
the Moscow circus. Remember that

428
00:25:36,900 --> 00:25:39,870
it was touring around the States
in the late 80s, early 90s.

429
00:25:39,870 --> 00:25:43,200
Yeah. So he managed that. There.
He'd been to Moscow a lot. And

430
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,360
then before I left, he says,
Okay, sit down. I gotta tell you

431
00:25:45,360 --> 00:25:48,900
something. Every single woman
who talks to you is a KGB

432
00:25:48,900 --> 00:25:53,520
hooker. Every single hook or you
talk to is KGB. In fact, anyone

433
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,120
you talk to is KGB. Just be very
aware. It's not a joke.

434
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:04,740
Well, I went to Moscow, before
the fall was still the Soviet

435
00:26:04,740 --> 00:26:09,720
Union. And I was being followed
the whole time. And there are

436
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,450
microphones in the room, and I
was staying at the mirror, which

437
00:26:12,450 --> 00:26:15,570
was it was falling into
disrepair. But the mirror was a

438
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,200
hotel that was for diplomats.
And they had allowed the public

439
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,080
to stay there now. And there
were microphones, you could find

440
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,870
the microphones, and many were
just painted over, as they kept

441
00:26:24,870 --> 00:26:29,010
painting. You can find you see,
there's a microphone is just

442
00:26:29,010 --> 00:26:33,570
painted over. It was laughable.
But anyway, back to the story.

443
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,280
Mark Eames left a tweet, a
tweet, which I thought was

444
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,190
interesting. Mark. James is one
of the few writers that I really

445
00:26:41,190 --> 00:26:43,740
have nothing but respect for
it's a gray investigator lived

446
00:26:43,740 --> 00:26:47,610
in Russia. And he says, does
anybody really believe this? The

447
00:26:47,610 --> 00:26:51,300
gist of it, did anybody really
believe that Trump who has mob

448
00:26:51,300 --> 00:26:56,550
connections and owns hotels,
wouldn't be fully aware of the

449
00:26:56,550 --> 00:27:01,200
situation at all times, and know
that this kind of thing would be

450
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,630
going on? You think he's that
stupid, it doesn't make any

451
00:27:03,630 --> 00:27:07,800
sense. And so this whole thing
is like something of a fiasco.

452
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,470
So here's what I think happened.
And then we can go into some

453
00:27:10,470 --> 00:27:15,840
clips there. Yeah. I think the
Republicans paid to go have

454
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,530
this, have this this old buddy
of somebody because this Orbis

455
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:23,580
operation is a two man
operation. And it's in London,

456
00:27:23,580 --> 00:27:26,490
and it's got to have they also
in some guy's house, it's just I

457
00:27:26,490 --> 00:27:28,800
looked up all the specs on it.
There's two people there,

458
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,400
period. Yeah. And and it's like,
it's something that maybe the

459
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,620
guys mi six, maybe he's not, but
he's like an old investor.

460
00:27:34,650 --> 00:27:39,210
I think that part is he probably
is an old mi six stringer. I'm

461
00:27:39,210 --> 00:27:41,760
sure that was that's the only
thing that is probably true is

462
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,620
that he had a relationship with
MI six.

463
00:27:44,490 --> 00:27:48,270
I think that's, I think it might
be true, but I also assume it's

464
00:27:48,270 --> 00:27:52,350
true. And so this guy is good at
doing hit pieces, disinformation

465
00:27:52,350 --> 00:27:54,630
pieces, stuff that you know,
might work and do it. Let's hire

466
00:27:54,630 --> 00:27:58,740
him. And then we're, you know,
we the Republicans that are

467
00:27:58,860 --> 00:28:01,830
trying to do this stuff where
you remove ourselves from this.

468
00:28:02,070 --> 00:28:06,450
So they did this and it got zero
traction, nobody cared. So they

469
00:28:06,450 --> 00:28:08,820
kind of gave up on it. The
Democrats picked up the ball,

470
00:28:08,820 --> 00:28:12,450
the the Clinton aides, or it's
It could be anybody in the

471
00:28:12,450 --> 00:28:15,660
Democrat party, but same thing
or could have still been McCain

472
00:28:15,660 --> 00:28:18,840
at the end. Because he was for
Hillary, I think he voted for

473
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,440
Hillary. And so they may have
maintained this relationship or

474
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,260
even bill could know this guy,
too. It seems like a kind of a

475
00:28:25,260 --> 00:28:29,010
douche bag that bill might know.
And so they said let's up the

476
00:28:29,010 --> 00:28:31,020
ante on this. And that's when
they came up with a golden

477
00:28:31,020 --> 00:28:32,850
showers and he's peeing in
there.

478
00:28:33,389 --> 00:28:37,349
Because apparently, this what I
understood as this report

479
00:28:37,469 --> 00:28:40,859
existed with the peeing and the
golden showers and salaciousness

480
00:28:41,129 --> 00:28:47,009
but the Russians eavesdropping
and blackmailing Trump in

481
00:28:47,009 --> 00:28:48,629
Moscow, I think that was added.

482
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,660
I think that was at the very
end, I think they kept up upping

483
00:28:51,660 --> 00:28:54,510
the ante. It started simple, and
it upped the ante and up the

484
00:28:54,510 --> 00:28:58,020
ante till he got ridiculous. And
so they by the it was pretty

485
00:28:58,020 --> 00:29:02,610
ridiculous. By October 31, when
David Corn, the friend who's

486
00:29:02,610 --> 00:29:06,660
apparently a friend of the steel
guy, yes, yeah. According to the

487
00:29:06,690 --> 00:29:07,710
independent and maybe

488
00:29:07,740 --> 00:29:10,050
maybe corn paid for it. Who does
he work for? Again?

489
00:29:10,650 --> 00:29:12,840
Mother Jones, you think? No,

490
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:16,440
this really puts a damper on
Mother Jones, doesn't it?

491
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,800
I don't know that it does.
Because I've forgotten this

492
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,730
part. Not me. But corn runs out
a piece. That's pretty much the

493
00:29:23,730 --> 00:29:27,630
piece that was done by BuzzFeed
without the document because I

494
00:29:27,630 --> 00:29:29,340
don't think he I don't know why.

495
00:29:29,790 --> 00:29:33,150
He said I've read the documents.
He showed me his top secret

496
00:29:33,180 --> 00:29:34,530
filings. Remember that

497
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,330
and the clip? Yeah. So So corn
runs this out. But he has such a

498
00:29:39,330 --> 00:29:41,910
bad reputation. It's a very
interesting article to read.

499
00:29:41,910 --> 00:29:46,350
It's on. David Corn October
31 2016. A veteran spy has given

500
00:29:46,350 --> 00:29:50,340
the FBI and for me, the veterans
fight it and give the FBI the

501
00:29:50,340 --> 00:29:54,180
information John McCain and
Harry Reid did but okay,

502
00:29:54,390 --> 00:29:58,350
alleging every Russian operation
to cultivate Donald Trump. And

503
00:29:58,350 --> 00:30:01,290
so he runs this thing out on
October 31st, which was the idea

504
00:30:01,290 --> 00:30:05,130
was to taint the election in
favor of Hillary? Yes, October

505
00:30:05,130 --> 00:30:09,690
31, just before the November
election, it gets zero traction,

506
00:30:09,690 --> 00:30:11,940
because I think they've gone
they went overboard with the

507
00:30:11,970 --> 00:30:12,720
instructions. And

508
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,570
this is because I guess people
knew this document at the time,

509
00:30:15,690 --> 00:30:16,140
right?

510
00:30:16,350 --> 00:30:19,680
And yet, I think and then they
kept, it kept getting worse and

511
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,620
worse, every time a new version
came out, it was getting worse

512
00:30:22,620 --> 00:30:25,230
and worse. And it was like this
doesn't even make any sense. In

513
00:30:25,230 --> 00:30:29,280
fact, there was an X i have a, I
have an odd clip that I picked

514
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:33,930
up from CNBC on the on the Trump
segment where they would end up

515
00:30:33,930 --> 00:30:37,020
getting killed as the guy that
was one of the financial and now

516
00:30:37,020 --> 00:30:42,510
analysts on CNBC, and he's rolls
out have an interesting thesis.

517
00:30:44,550 --> 00:30:48,660
Assuming that any of this is
true, and CNBC kills it, you got

518
00:30:48,690 --> 00:30:51,240
you just as just as definitely
worth listening to, to watch how

519
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,960
this guy gets gets killed is
pretty funny.

520
00:30:54,990 --> 00:30:58,680
25 Page leaked document from
BuzzFeed comes out last night.

521
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,640
And the whole conversation
changes today. And we were once

522
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,170
again focused on his
relationship

523
00:31:04,409 --> 00:31:07,019
with do I need do we need the
director on this one? It sounds

524
00:31:07,019 --> 00:31:10,409
like we might need the director.
No, he's good. The intelligence

525
00:31:10,409 --> 00:31:13,529
agencies. George, what do you
think about that, and the way he

526
00:31:13,529 --> 00:31:13,889
spoke

527
00:31:13,890 --> 00:31:14,550
about them today?

528
00:31:15,180 --> 00:31:18,660
Well, just a couple of points
here. You know, as a former CIA

529
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,500
analyst, I mean, I can say with
complete confidence, complete

530
00:31:22,500 --> 00:31:28,080
confidence that those leaked
memos are as fake as the plain

531
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,560
money that you would buy at a
toy store. Okay. And let's,

532
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,660
let's face it, I mean, we're
talking about

533
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,240
Yeah, isn't it George sure to
jump in. But is it dangerous

534
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,640
even to call them a leaked memo?
Because it sounds like that

535
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,160
might be something official,
rather than maybe something that

536
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,170
somebody literally just
fabricated out of nothing?

537
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,210
Oh, precisely. I mean, that's
absolutely right. So, but again,

538
00:31:49,650 --> 00:31:53,070
let's assume that this thing is
real. It's humor. Let's humor

539
00:31:53,070 --> 00:31:55,980
the possibility that it's real.
And what would this actually

540
00:31:55,980 --> 00:32:02,730
mean? Okay. The first point is
that Russian counterintelligence

541
00:32:02,790 --> 00:32:06,990
is in totally disarray. You
supposedly have this former

542
00:32:06,990 --> 00:32:11,160
British intelligence official,
meeting senior officials from

543
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,760
the Kremlin, folks from the
Russian intelligence services

544
00:32:14,790 --> 00:32:18,570
meet, he's meeting these people
in hotels, and bars and cafes

545
00:32:18,570 --> 00:32:21,270
down the street from the
Kremlin, wherever it is, the

546
00:32:21,270 --> 00:32:23,820
Russians should know that,
right? The fact that they

547
00:32:23,820 --> 00:32:31,320
haven't caught up with that is a
problem. Second point. The the

548
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,290
sources, if this is real, these
sources are all dead at this

549
00:32:34,290 --> 00:32:37,950
point where I've thrown in jail,
because at this point, the

550
00:32:37,950 --> 00:32:41,370
Russians, the Russians would
know who they are, again, this

551
00:32:41,370 --> 00:32:43,830
kind of information would be in
the hands of only a few people.

552
00:32:43,860 --> 00:32:46,980
Jared, I got to imagine though,
that you were a little bit happy

553
00:32:46,980 --> 00:32:49,380
in hearing about drug pricing,
because when I heard the

554
00:32:49,380 --> 00:32:52,320
President Elect talk about
additional bidding

555
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,280
and a bid to shut up on that and
be quiet now.

556
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,370
Now let me just I thought this
was interesting because in the

557
00:32:59,370 --> 00:33:02,220
Telegraph when I was reading
about the steel guy and his

558
00:33:02,220 --> 00:33:07,650
partner that run Orbis steel is
is took off like a rocket he

559
00:33:07,650 --> 00:33:12,510
apparently is fled, fled the
area is in hiding, and he says

560
00:33:12,510 --> 00:33:14,220
that the Russians are going to
kill him.

561
00:33:15,210 --> 00:33:19,560
Ah, that's gonna get better.
Maybe I do want to read

562
00:33:19,830 --> 00:33:22,860
during the way Wait, just let me
finish my thesis. Now. I don't

563
00:33:22,860 --> 00:33:26,730
take one sec. Got one. Okay, so
corn roses thing out, nothing

564
00:33:26,730 --> 00:33:32,520
comes of it. Nobody can get
bites. And nobody bites before

565
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,420
the election. Nobody bites in
December. And they finally bite

566
00:33:37,410 --> 00:33:44,460
in January January 7, eighth,
one of these just recently. That

567
00:33:44,460 --> 00:33:48,960
is how long it takes to do a
disinformation campaign and

568
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:53,610
actually have it catch fire.
They screwed up. Yeah. This

569
00:33:53,610 --> 00:33:56,070
should they should go corn
should have written this thing

570
00:33:56,070 --> 00:34:00,120
in September, late August. Yeah.
And they could have let the

571
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,610
things simmer and then it would
have popped up maybe before the

572
00:34:02,610 --> 00:34:07,230
election. This was this just is
a joke. Now it's just laughable.

573
00:34:07,230 --> 00:34:10,980
In fact, it's even being
discussed at all is ludicrous.

574
00:34:12,450 --> 00:34:14,700
Anyway, okay. That's my thesis.
Right.

575
00:34:15,180 --> 00:34:20,820
Okay, so the campaign that went
awry, right. Well, the public

576
00:34:20,820 --> 00:34:27,600
story is that Trump received a
briefing, and they said, Oh,

577
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:30,090
yeah, we've attached a couple of
things. You need to look at some

578
00:34:30,090 --> 00:34:35,130
agenda items and agenda, and he
looked at it, but that he had

579
00:34:35,130 --> 00:34:41,130
set a trap. A love this guy.
He'd set a trap until no one not

580
00:34:41,130 --> 00:34:45,240
even his trusty executive
assistant, Rhoda.

581
00:34:45,630 --> 00:34:47,100
Where did this theory come from?

582
00:34:47,970 --> 00:34:52,350
It Trump said it himself. He
said I set a trap and and I told

583
00:34:52,350 --> 00:34:54,570
no one I was having this
briefing not even my assistant

584
00:34:54,570 --> 00:34:57,360
Rota, because I thought maybe
the leaks are coming from inside

585
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:03,060
my organization. And Lee AIX.
Yeah. And then it has to be the

586
00:35:03,060 --> 00:35:07,650
intelligence community because
they then somebody must have

587
00:35:07,650 --> 00:35:11,130
said, we gave this to them. That
is the that is the only the real

588
00:35:11,130 --> 00:35:15,030
file here. We gave this to him
in a classified briefing now

589
00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:18,510
that is a violation of the
classification of the briefing

590
00:35:18,510 --> 00:35:21,150
to tell anyone's particularly
the press to tell them about

591
00:35:21,150 --> 00:35:21,450
that.

592
00:35:21,690 --> 00:35:27,690
Well, there's this is dubious.
Okay. And I'll tell you this

593
00:35:27,690 --> 00:35:30,630
whole timeline thing was it was
because everyone's saying one

594
00:35:30,630 --> 00:35:35,580
thing or another. Yeah. And NBC
went out of his way to clear up

595
00:35:35,580 --> 00:35:39,030
the timeline and you want to
listen to this clip finishes NBC

596
00:35:39,150 --> 00:35:41,460
clears up p timeline.

597
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,370
Thank you. Let's step back a
moment and take a closer look

598
00:35:44,370 --> 00:35:48,480
now at that Firestorm over the
explosive but unverified memo

599
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,570
that Hallie just mentioned that
so angered the president elect.

600
00:35:51,810 --> 00:35:55,680
Multiple sources telling NBC
News US spy chiefs did not tell

601
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,260
Mr. Trump about its contents
regarding him during the

602
00:35:58,260 --> 00:36:01,470
briefing. NBC News Senior
investigative correspondent

603
00:36:01,470 --> 00:36:03,690
Cynthia McFadden explains what
we know.

604
00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:09,630
Tonight, this question, does US
intelligence have proved the

605
00:36:09,630 --> 00:36:12,690
Russians hold compromising
information about Donald Trump?

606
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:14,820
And did they brief Mr. Trump

607
00:36:14,820 --> 00:36:18,450
about it last Friday? The answer
according to multiple

608
00:36:18,450 --> 00:36:22,260
intelligence officials, is no. A
senior intelligence official

609
00:36:22,260 --> 00:36:25,800
tells NBC news that there was
indeed a two page summary

610
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,430
accompanying that classified
report on Russian interference

611
00:36:29,430 --> 00:36:32,970
in the US election, which dealt
with explosive and

612
00:36:32,970 --> 00:36:36,870
unsubstantiated claims that
Russia had compromising personal

613
00:36:36,870 --> 00:36:40,470
information about Mr. Trump.
Last night, it was widely

614
00:36:40,470 --> 00:36:43,530
reported that Mr. Trump was
himself briefed on the material.

615
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,800
But multiple sources, including
those involved in the briefing

616
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,920
process, tell NBC News, that is
simply

617
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:50,820
not true.

618
00:36:50,850 --> 00:36:55,050
I was in the room that the first
I heard of any of these wild

619
00:36:55,050 --> 00:36:59,370
accusations was when someone
printed it off of the BuzzFeed

620
00:36:59,550 --> 00:37:00,360
website.

621
00:37:00,930 --> 00:37:03,720
Alright, let me play this thing
from Trump where he's talking

622
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:06,540
about wondering if the
intelligence agencies leaked

623
00:37:06,540 --> 00:37:06,840
this,

624
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:12,810
but I do have to say that. And I
must say that, I want to thank a

625
00:37:12,810 --> 00:37:17,700
lot of the news organizations
here today. Because they looked

626
00:37:17,700 --> 00:37:23,370
at that nonsense that was
released by maybe the

627
00:37:23,370 --> 00:37:27,420
intelligence agencies, who
knows, but maybe the

628
00:37:27,420 --> 00:37:29,640
intelligence agencies would be a
Trump

629
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,730
is a very interesting speech
pattern. Maybe the intelligence

630
00:37:32,730 --> 00:37:36,120
agencies who knows but maybe the
intelligence agents, yeah, he

631
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:41,070
does it. That's, that's got to
be NLP somehow. Because he got

632
00:37:41,070 --> 00:37:41,130
to

633
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:46,050
agencies, who knows, but maybe
the intelligence agencies, which

634
00:37:46,050 --> 00:37:49,920
would be a tremendous blot on
their record, if they in fact,

635
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,330
did that a tremendous blog.
thing like that should have

636
00:37:54,330 --> 00:37:58,470
never been written. It should
never been had, and it should

637
00:37:58,470 --> 00:38:01,860
certainly never have been
released. But I want to thank a

638
00:38:01,860 --> 00:38:06,090
lot of the news organizations
for some of whom have not

639
00:38:06,090 --> 00:38:10,470
treated me very well over the
years, a couple in particular,

640
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:15,240
and they came out so strongly
against that fake news. And the

641
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:20,700
fact that it was written about
by primarily one group and one

642
00:38:20,700 --> 00:38:21,930
television station,

643
00:38:22,020 --> 00:38:27,450
so I pulled a couple more quick
clips from his from his press

644
00:38:27,450 --> 00:38:30,480
conference, which I want to
share. And the first one was

645
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,560
what Scott Adams said, was a
great persuasion tactic against

646
00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:37,920
the Hitler mean. And that, of
course, was him saying, hey,

647
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,400
wait a minute, is this is this
Nazi Germany? Tweet that you had

648
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,060
this morning about?

649
00:38:42,090 --> 00:38:44,490
Are we living in Nazi Germany?
What were you driving out there?

650
00:38:44,490 --> 00:38:45,420
What are you trying to tell
them? I

651
00:38:45,420 --> 00:38:48,840
think it was disgraceful,
disgraceful that the

652
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,920
intelligence agencies allowed
any information that turned out

653
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:57,720
to be so false and fake out. I
think it's a disgrace. And I say

654
00:38:57,720 --> 00:39:01,350
that and I say that, and that's
something that Nazi Germany

655
00:39:01,530 --> 00:39:01,890
would have

656
00:39:01,890 --> 00:39:03,480
done. Don't repeat himself think
it's

657
00:39:03,930 --> 00:39:05,610
sorry. You know, I

658
00:39:05,610 --> 00:39:08,760
want you to start that clip over
and listen to the way he repeat

659
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,000
this is that he may be onto
something with the NLP says

660
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,420
disgraceful, disgraceful. And
then he repeats himself a number

661
00:39:15,420 --> 00:39:17,910
of times, in sometimes whole
sentences.

662
00:39:17,940 --> 00:39:20,280
It's neuro linguistic
programming for those of you

663
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,920
that want to look at the tweet
that you had this morning about,

664
00:39:22,950 --> 00:39:23,970
are we living in knots will

665
00:39:23,970 --> 00:39:31,410
count. disgraceful, disgraceful
that the intelligence agencies

666
00:39:31,650 --> 00:39:34,710
allowed any information that
turned out to be so false and

667
00:39:34,710 --> 00:39:39,210
fake out? I think it's a
disgrace. And I say that and I

668
00:39:39,210 --> 00:39:42,720
say that, and that's something
that Nazi Germany would have

669
00:39:42,720 --> 00:39:47,250
done and did do. I think it's a
disgrace. That information that

670
00:39:47,250 --> 00:39:51,240
was false and fake and never
happened. got released to the

671
00:39:51,240 --> 00:39:51,780
public.

672
00:39:52,860 --> 00:39:56,610
I counted five. Well, there was
it depends on if you want to

673
00:39:56,610 --> 00:39:59,400
extend four or five. Yeah, yeah,
it was a bunch. It's

674
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,460
a repeat That's 32nd clip so
this repeat every six seconds

675
00:40:02,460 --> 00:40:06,720
not bad. All right now, of
course, the bit that everybody

676
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:09,180
saw if you didn't, it's just too
beautiful. Since you're

677
00:40:09,180 --> 00:40:13,170
attacking us. Can you give us a
question? Mr. President Elect?

678
00:40:13,230 --> 00:40:15,570
Go ahead president. Since you
are attacking our news

679
00:40:15,570 --> 00:40:18,150
organization, not can you give
us a cheater organization

680
00:40:18,450 --> 00:40:21,390
tracking our news organizations?
You give us a chance to ask a

681
00:40:21,390 --> 00:40:25,200
question, sir. Sir. Stay quiet,
Mr. President Elect Go ahead.

682
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:30,150
You say like can you give us a
Don't be rude. Give us a

683
00:40:30,150 --> 00:40:34,830
question. Don't be. I'm not
gonna give you can you stay kind

684
00:40:34,830 --> 00:40:38,040
of you are fake news, sir. Can
you state categorically that

685
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:38,520
nobody?

686
00:40:41,550 --> 00:40:45,150
That's not appropriate. I love
the clapping. Of course he did.

687
00:40:45,150 --> 00:40:48,330
This at Trump Tower says a lot
of people they're like, Yeah,

688
00:40:48,750 --> 00:40:51,720
screw that. You are fake news.
This is a great ISO.

689
00:40:51,900 --> 00:40:53,160
You are fake news.

690
00:40:53,700 --> 00:40:58,560
I love that. Best ice. You are
fake news. Perfect. All right.

691
00:40:59,490 --> 00:41:02,490
But what was interesting is
right after that bit about the

692
00:41:02,490 --> 00:41:06,960
fake news. A question was asked
that didn't really make the

693
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:11,160
airways. But to us to the no
agenda thinking, no agenda

694
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:12,720
minded people. It was
interesting.

695
00:41:12,990 --> 00:41:16,260
President Obama went too far
with the sanctions he put on

696
00:41:16,260 --> 00:41:19,830
Russia after the hacking. Do you
think they went too far? Well,

697
00:41:19,830 --> 00:41:23,040
he rolled them back. What do you
think of Lindsey Graham say send

698
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,480
you a bill for tougher ones.

699
00:41:25,020 --> 00:41:28,950
Please just send me a bill for
what? tougher sanctions? I

700
00:41:28,950 --> 00:41:32,370
hadn't heard Lindsey Graham was
gonna do that. Lindsey Graham.

701
00:41:32,670 --> 00:41:36,360
I've been competing with him for
a long time. He's going to crack

702
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,130
that 1% barrier one day.

703
00:41:38,490 --> 00:41:40,140
What do you think he means by
that?

704
00:41:40,620 --> 00:41:42,870
He means that he never got more
of a

705
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,080
1% or 1%. Ah, yes.

706
00:41:46,170 --> 00:41:50,010
He's gonna crack that 1% barrier
one day. I didn't realize

707
00:41:50,010 --> 00:41:51,180
Lindsey Graham still at it.

708
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,180
And now he does a real Trump
thing.

709
00:41:54,210 --> 00:41:56,850
I think Lindsey Graham's a nice
guy. Oh, I've heard that. He's a

710
00:41:56,850 --> 00:41:58,530
nice guy. And I've been hearing
it.

711
00:41:59,820 --> 00:42:02,070
I've been hearing it. Yeah.
Don't worry, you'll change your

712
00:42:02,070 --> 00:42:06,990
tune pretty quickly. He's not a
nice guy. Now in in the

713
00:42:07,020 --> 00:42:10,860
previous, I forget which
session, this was exactly. They

714
00:42:10,860 --> 00:42:15,480
had the intel community at the
Senate. And it was Clapper, it

715
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,400
was Brennan. It was Admiral
Michael Rogers, and it was

716
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,540
Comey. And before you before you
jump to that, no, no, no, no, it

717
00:42:24,540 --> 00:42:27,180
is. It isn't connecting,
connecting it. It is very

718
00:42:27,180 --> 00:42:30,120
important. Because what are we
talking about? This is before?

719
00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:36,300
This is before this memo came
out? Before you got to put that

720
00:42:36,300 --> 00:42:39,510
in your head? I'm gonna say one
more time before? Well, before

721
00:42:39,510 --> 00:42:43,650
it came out. It was yes. It
actually came out. Yeah. So

722
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:51,300
yes. Before before this whole
practice. Okay. All right. And I

723
00:42:51,300 --> 00:42:54,570
think it was it's a Yeah,
Senator Mark Warner, Democrat

724
00:42:54,570 --> 00:42:59,700
from Virginia. It says something
that in this context is mind

725
00:42:59,700 --> 00:43:00,210
boggling.

726
00:43:00,569 --> 00:43:05,339
You're There's long been a
target of Russian attempts to

727
00:43:05,339 --> 00:43:10,919
manipulate electoral processes.
So they will continue with that.

728
00:43:11,519 --> 00:43:16,739
And certainly, because of the
controversy that's generated in

729
00:43:16,739 --> 00:43:20,369
our country, I think that will
reinforce their desire to do

730
00:43:20,369 --> 00:43:20,669
that.

731
00:43:21,509 --> 00:43:24,569
One of the things that actually
another member of the committee

732
00:43:24,569 --> 00:43:28,319
raised is certain Russian
activities, again, just a no go

733
00:43:28,319 --> 00:43:30,479
to the seriousness not only
retrospectively, but

734
00:43:30,479 --> 00:43:35,939
prospectively, that I believe
there was a Russian dissident in

735
00:43:35,939 --> 00:43:41,249
London, where Russian agents, in
effect, planted false

736
00:43:41,249 --> 00:43:46,769
information in this individual's
personal file, and then called

737
00:43:46,769 --> 00:43:50,759
law enforcement and said, look
in this person's file, and there

738
00:43:50,759 --> 00:43:54,809
was criminal child pornography
placed there. Could you

739
00:43:54,809 --> 00:43:57,389
anticipate at some time Russia
trying if we don't take more

740
00:43:57,389 --> 00:44:00,479
aggressive actions, trying those
actions against American public

741
00:44:00,479 --> 00:44:00,989
officials?

742
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:06,660
I love this. They're talking
about the Russians doing what

743
00:44:06,660 --> 00:44:10,260
they themselves just did. Now,
whether they had done that

744
00:44:10,260 --> 00:44:13,530
before the Senate hearing? I
don't know. But we'll roll that

745
00:44:13,530 --> 00:44:15,120
back. Just a little bit with
that question.

746
00:44:16,230 --> 00:44:20,460
Is there could you anticipate at
some time Russia trying if we

747
00:44:20,460 --> 00:44:22,590
don't take more aggressive
actions, trying those actions

748
00:44:22,590 --> 00:44:24,600
against American public
officials?

749
00:44:24,750 --> 00:44:29,580
Russians? I think well, I have
no compunction about using the

750
00:44:29,580 --> 00:44:34,050
full array of tools and
techniques available in our kit

751
00:44:34,050 --> 00:44:34,470
bag.

752
00:44:35,730 --> 00:44:39,000
Do you have your kit bag ready
John? Kit got your kit bag.

753
00:44:39,450 --> 00:44:43,410
So I wouldn't put it past him to
do that. Oh, and the tools that

754
00:44:43,410 --> 00:44:48,000
he used, such as paying people
to participate in social media

755
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:48,600
for example.

756
00:44:49,020 --> 00:44:51,630
GE we don't do that if we don't
do that.

757
00:44:52,590 --> 00:44:57,150
Described as an effect the the
new normal, the new normal

758
00:44:57,660 --> 00:44:59,100
Russian doctrine is that
correct?

759
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:00,720
Yes.

760
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,110
This is why didn't they just
come right out and say, Oh,

761
00:45:04,110 --> 00:45:06,480
Russia inserted that into the
file that would have been much

762
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:10,740
better? would have been even
funnier. But no, but just being

763
00:45:10,740 --> 00:45:14,430
yourself up to the health, what
you say about others is quite

764
00:45:14,430 --> 00:45:15,210
you are.

765
00:45:15,870 --> 00:45:19,500
I found that turning out to be
the theme of this whole podcast,

766
00:45:19,500 --> 00:45:20,490
generally speaking,

767
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,640
and listen to the last question.
He doesn't one of those down the

768
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:29,100
line, everybody answered the
question. Oh, yeah, I hate it if

769
00:45:29,100 --> 00:45:31,290
you're sitting there, but it's
great for the show.

770
00:45:32,279 --> 00:45:39,689
Okay, go. And again, we've seen
our system, your words, a

771
00:45:39,689 --> 00:45:43,079
significant escalation in all
and before us, we have people

772
00:45:43,079 --> 00:45:48,839
with service in the IC, and
defensive our nation and

773
00:45:48,869 --> 00:45:53,789
hundreds of years. I'd like to
just go down the line in any of

774
00:45:53,789 --> 00:45:58,559
your careers. Have you ever seen
this level of Russian

775
00:45:58,559 --> 00:46:01,499
interference in our political
process? And we'll start with

776
00:46:01,499 --> 00:46:02,879
Director Comey and just go down
the line.

777
00:46:02,970 --> 00:46:07,740
Now. What would you say? So have
we ever seen any say yeah,

778
00:46:07,770 --> 00:46:13,980
in the 50s. It was like, when I
was a kid, there we go. When I

779
00:46:13,980 --> 00:46:16,350
was a kid, I forgot what grade I
was in. But I was given an

780
00:46:16,350 --> 00:46:19,110
assignment of it. It was
something and it was when there

781
00:46:19,110 --> 00:46:22,170
was so much anti communist stuff
going on. That one of the

782
00:46:22,170 --> 00:46:24,810
assignments was to find all the
front organizations that are

783
00:46:24,810 --> 00:46:27,660
actually can be linked to the
Soviet Union. And I did this

784
00:46:27,660 --> 00:46:31,800
report for me in grammar school,
and it was page after page after

785
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:36,390
page. I was stunned myself, but
apparently not compared to

786
00:46:36,390 --> 00:46:37,050
today.

787
00:46:38,190 --> 00:46:41,520
See the question one more time,
this level of Russian

788
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,460
interference in our political
process, and we'll start with

789
00:46:44,460 --> 00:46:51,870
Director Comey and just go down
the line. No. No, no, no. No,

790
00:46:51,900 --> 00:46:53,850
that a lot of members. Oh,
trash.

791
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,400
Now it's a lie. Yeah, these
people are either idiots or

792
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,770
they're just stooges. Oh, take
door

793
00:47:01,770 --> 00:47:03,300
number one for 500.

794
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:04,380
Okay, wait, let

795
00:47:04,380 --> 00:47:06,810
me let me just read clapper
statement. That's important

796
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,120
because clapper released the
statement after this all

797
00:47:09,150 --> 00:47:10,620
everything got really high

798
00:47:10,890 --> 00:47:11,880
after this go.

799
00:47:13,020 --> 00:47:14,910
This evening, I had the
opportunity to speak with

800
00:47:14,910 --> 00:47:17,670
President Elect Donald Trump to
discuss recent media reports

801
00:47:17,670 --> 00:47:21,840
about our briefing last Friday.
I express my profound dismay at

802
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:23,790
the leaks that have been
appearing in the press and we

803
00:47:23,790 --> 00:47:26,430
both agree that they are
extremely corrosive and damaging

804
00:47:26,430 --> 00:47:29,310
to our national security. By the
way, Clapper is out now. He's

805
00:47:29,310 --> 00:47:33,690
done. He's leaving. We already
quit. Yeah. We also discussed

806
00:47:33,690 --> 00:47:36,120
the private security company
document which was widely

807
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,820
circulated in recent months
among the media members of

808
00:47:38,820 --> 00:47:42,120
Congress and congressional staff
even before the IC became aware

809
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:43,200
of it. Oh, it's not

810
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,680
a private security company. But
go on now. But and also litical

811
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,960
consultancy big difference. Yes,
thank

812
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,440
you. But also why didn't they
have a copy of it? Everybody had

813
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,590
it? That great, great work. I
see.

814
00:47:55,950 --> 00:47:57,900
I got it. I got a topper I wanna

815
00:48:01,140 --> 00:48:05,760
I emphasize that this document
is not emboldened, a US

816
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:09,900
intelligence community product
that I do not believe that I do

817
00:48:09,900 --> 00:48:15,240
not believe the see, read. This,
again, is not a US intelligence

818
00:48:15,240 --> 00:48:19,080
community product and that I do
not believe the leaks came from

819
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:20,880
within the intelligence
community. The intelligence

820
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,160
community has not made any
judgment that the information in

821
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,700
this document is reliable, and
we do not rely upon it in any

822
00:48:26,700 --> 00:48:30,000
way for our conclusions.
However, part of our obligation

823
00:48:30,030 --> 00:48:33,240
is to ensure that policymakers
are provided with the fullest

824
00:48:33,240 --> 00:48:36,510
possible picture of any matters
that might affect national

825
00:48:36,510 --> 00:48:40,170
security. President elect Trump
again affirmed his appreciation

826
00:48:40,170 --> 00:48:41,880
for all the men and women
serving in the intelligence

827
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:44,340
community. And I assured him
that the IC stands ready to

828
00:48:44,340 --> 00:48:47,100
serve his administration and the
American people except for me,

829
00:48:47,100 --> 00:48:51,960
because I quit. That's just
minor detail. Okay, now not that

830
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,000
anyone will care that he said
that.

831
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:59,100
No, I sure don't know. So this
guy now let me get this

832
00:48:59,100 --> 00:49:04,320
straight. So So Clapper is the
head of the all the head of the

833
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,950
he's the he's the Tet the detent
He's the new Moto capo. Yeah,

834
00:49:08,130 --> 00:49:13,020
he's the guy that top he should
know everything right? Yep. And

835
00:49:13,020 --> 00:49:15,270
he apparently doesn't know
anything. And we've ruined this

836
00:49:15,270 --> 00:49:17,880
before. If you remember that one
time. There's some big yeah,

837
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,540
there's a couple years ago, I
think this one here comes close.

838
00:49:21,540 --> 00:49:23,310
This is clapper on RT.

839
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:27,870
Okie dokie. And James Clapper
who is the Director of National

840
00:49:27,870 --> 00:49:31,080
Intelligence joined the chorus
against RT however, when asked a

841
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,470
question about Artis reach in
America, he seemed unsure

842
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,480
China continues to succeed

843
00:49:36,540 --> 00:49:38,490
director collaborateurs RT get

844
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:43,290
any events broadcast into the
United States? Yes, it does.

845
00:49:43,290 --> 00:49:47,190
Some it does is very prevalent
in Europe and lesser so I think

846
00:49:47,190 --> 00:49:48,570
there's an RT channel here.

847
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:53,880
She's Oh, I think there's an RT
channel here. Maybe pause it I

848
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,350
don't know. I think

849
00:49:56,100 --> 00:50:00,660
the channel here that's his
extent of His knowledge

850
00:50:00,690 --> 00:50:03,840
that is that is our intelligence
community right there. Oh, I

851
00:50:04,350 --> 00:50:07,320
think there's an RT channel
here, I think,

852
00:50:07,740 --> 00:50:13,200
how can he say that? What did he
tell me? What an idiot? Oh, my

853
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:13,980
goodness.

854
00:50:14,130 --> 00:50:16,290
And besides that the bitching
and moaning about our tea

855
00:50:16,290 --> 00:50:18,930
constantly, and then he thinks
there's an RT channel here. He

856
00:50:18,930 --> 00:50:22,140
thinks maybe there might be.
Well, of course, they're big in

857
00:50:22,140 --> 00:50:23,100
Europe, big in Europe.

858
00:50:24,150 --> 00:50:27,480
So there's not much more to say
about this. Other than that, it

859
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:32,700
was obviously fake news. And
that, not BuzzFeed. Putting this

860
00:50:32,700 --> 00:50:35,760
out. I mean, for me, the
funniest thing is also

861
00:50:35,790 --> 00:50:38,610
everyone's like, Well, how could
a news organization put this

862
00:50:38,610 --> 00:50:44,280
out? Hello, Buzzfeed. It's a
clickbait farm.

863
00:50:44,670 --> 00:50:46,410
I have a couple more clips. Oh,
my

864
00:50:46,410 --> 00:50:50,820
me. If I ran BuzzFeed shit,
yeah. And put that out.

865
00:50:51,750 --> 00:50:55,080
Here's Ben Smith being grilled
by

866
00:50:55,380 --> 00:50:59,460
Ben Smith. Or he's the he's the
editor of BuzzFeed.

867
00:50:59,790 --> 00:51:04,860
He owns it. Yeah. The Meet the
Press guy. Yeah, Chuck. Chuck.

868
00:51:04,860 --> 00:51:08,520
Chuck. Chuck. Chuck, Chuck's
grilling and I could have put

869
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:10,620
the whole thing in here. I got a
little bit of it. I got these

870
00:51:10,620 --> 00:51:14,160
clips too. So it's on and on.
And Chuck is Chuck is actually

871
00:51:14,190 --> 00:51:17,730
irked. He hates this guy, even
though they're friends. He hates

872
00:51:17,730 --> 00:51:19,860
him for doing this. This is this
is the worst thing you could do.

873
00:51:19,890 --> 00:51:21,930
I think Ben Smith is right.

874
00:51:21,990 --> 00:51:25,110
This sentence publishing this
dossier reflects how we see

875
00:51:25,110 --> 00:51:29,010
referring to yourself. The job
of reporters in 2017, that makes

876
00:51:29,010 --> 00:51:32,520
this makes me think this is a
decision you would have you

877
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,520
would not have made the same
decision in the pre Trump era.

878
00:51:36,090 --> 00:51:38,370
Oh, no, I'm not really referring
to the pre Trump era, I think

879
00:51:38,370 --> 00:51:40,440
more of the pre Internet era. I
mean, I think there was an

880
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,110
arrow. And I think there are
reasons for us to be nostalgic

881
00:51:43,110 --> 00:51:46,080
for it reasons for us to have
issues with it where we could

882
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,860
act as gatekeepers, where we
could say, You know what, crazy

883
00:51:49,860 --> 00:51:52,320
people are claiming that Barack
Obama's birth certificate is

884
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:54,960
forged. But we're not going to
talk about that. That's crazy.

885
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,780
And I remember, remember, we
were both there during Obama's

886
00:51:57,780 --> 00:51:59,760
first campaign that was at first
the approach, and then you see

887
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,040
these things spread. And you
have to engage them. And I

888
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,700
think, I think there was an era
when you would, when you would

889
00:52:05,730 --> 00:52:08,130
be the gatekeeper for
information, you would say to

890
00:52:08,130 --> 00:52:10,320
end you would say to your
audience, trust us, we're

891
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:12,420
keeping things from you. We have
lots of secrets, we're not

892
00:52:12,420 --> 00:52:15,210
telling you that you should
trust us. I think you could say

893
00:52:15,210 --> 00:52:17,130
that was a good error. You could
say that was a bad error. That

894
00:52:17,130 --> 00:52:19,680
is not the present day. And so I
guess I would I mean, I think

895
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:24,150
that so there were in in that
context, that we that we did

896
00:52:24,150 --> 00:52:26,460
decide to publish this. And we
like, like many other

897
00:52:26,460 --> 00:52:29,010
organizations that had it for
weeks had reporters in Europe in

898
00:52:29,010 --> 00:52:32,250
the United States, trying to
stand up or knock down specific

899
00:52:32,250 --> 00:52:37,500
details. There. And this was a
document that was not just

900
00:52:37,500 --> 00:52:39,300
circulating at the highest
levels of the intelligence

901
00:52:39,300 --> 00:52:41,790
community, the most powerful
intelligence officials in the

902
00:52:41,790 --> 00:52:44,310
country, referring to in
briefings to the president and

903
00:52:44,310 --> 00:52:48,720
States President Elect
reportedly disputed lay the

904
00:52:48,750 --> 00:52:51,240
political elite, you know, top
elected officials, the Gang of

905
00:52:51,240 --> 00:52:54,090
Eight John McCain's facade,
certainly the media elite had

906
00:52:54,090 --> 00:52:56,580
it. And I think, and we're not
enough, didn't just had it,

907
00:52:56,580 --> 00:52:58,800
we're starting to act on Harry
Reid had written the letter

908
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,790
referring to it. And I think
when you have an object that is

909
00:53:02,790 --> 00:53:05,670
in play, that is having
consequences for the way our

910
00:53:05,670 --> 00:53:07,890
elected leaders are acting, the
court you do have to ask the

911
00:53:07,890 --> 00:53:09,930
question of why should I
suppress that? There are then

912
00:53:09,930 --> 00:53:13,650
good reasons right? Once though,
emerges as it did last night,

913
00:53:13,770 --> 00:53:16,260
the in the public conversation
that there is this secret

914
00:53:16,260 --> 00:53:19,260
document floating around full of
dark allegations that we will

915
00:53:19,260 --> 00:53:21,840
not repeat to you that I feel
like in this era, you really

916
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,160
have to share your readers what
that is.

917
00:53:23,399 --> 00:53:26,219
I pulled completely different
clips from that from that piece.

918
00:53:26,249 --> 00:53:29,909
I'm, I find it interesting, you
pulled those?

919
00:53:30,629 --> 00:53:32,849
Well, the reason is, because
that was at the beginning. And

920
00:53:32,849 --> 00:53:37,109
that was when check was the most
direct. Can I play my claim? And

921
00:53:37,229 --> 00:53:39,479
then the Yeah, and then they
went back and forth and back and

922
00:53:39,479 --> 00:53:42,329
forth. And I don't think that
Smith really altered his

923
00:53:42,329 --> 00:53:46,649
position much. I think Todd made
some good points. But the more I

924
00:53:46,649 --> 00:53:50,879
think about it, especially in
regards to our show, we don't

925
00:53:50,879 --> 00:53:54,629
mind talking about the potential
of Obama being a Muslim, or

926
00:53:54,629 --> 00:53:58,139
they're Obama might be gay or
bisexual or we discuss these

927
00:53:58,139 --> 00:54:01,139
things. We have some evidence
and we used to play you know,

928
00:54:01,139 --> 00:54:05,099
have different kinds of crazy
clips. We bring all this stuff

929
00:54:05,099 --> 00:54:08,039
out. And I think this because
this is I think Smith is right,

930
00:54:08,039 --> 00:54:09,749
this is the new world that we're

931
00:54:09,750 --> 00:54:13,350
I got so I got some grass. Yes.
So

932
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:17,100
this WikiLeaks, WikiLeaks is
just like, let's get it all out

933
00:54:17,100 --> 00:54:18,600
there. Yeah, we leeches

934
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:21,630
more news than than BuzzFeed.
Hulu.

935
00:54:22,020 --> 00:54:22,770
Exactly.

936
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:24,270
Here's I here's my I know this

937
00:54:24,270 --> 00:54:28,020
was not your intent. I've known
you a long time. Which you just

938
00:54:28,050 --> 00:54:29,100
published fake news.

939
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,090
That's that's why I like that.
You just published fake news,

940
00:54:33,090 --> 00:54:33,420
bitch.

941
00:54:33,450 --> 00:54:36,150
We just published a dossier. No,
I think that's a really Yeah,

942
00:54:36,150 --> 00:54:37,800
not a lie is that we just
published

943
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:38,670
the dossier.

944
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,040
I agree that I don't think it
was fake.

945
00:54:41,820 --> 00:54:45,240
I think BuzzFeed is not news
fair description.

946
00:54:45,240 --> 00:54:49,380
I would love to throw the term
fake news around to diminish

947
00:54:49,380 --> 00:54:49,650
anything.

948
00:54:49,860 --> 00:54:52,200
Like, trust me, I'm aware.

949
00:54:52,230 --> 00:54:54,570
It seems to be there. It's
almost like you're saying there

950
00:54:54,570 --> 00:54:58,680
was there was only two choices
you had here. Not publish or

951
00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:03,510
publish. There is a gray area. I
understand this idea in this day

952
00:55:03,510 --> 00:55:06,420
and age that that there are many
readers that feel as if proof

953
00:55:06,450 --> 00:55:09,810
show me that you have the goods.
There is such thing as redaction

954
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:15,960
and redacted. Yeah, there could
have said here it is there. You

955
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:20,220
didn't do many. You did very
few. And in some cases, not

956
00:55:20,220 --> 00:55:22,980
enough as far as even I believe
one of one of the people who

957
00:55:22,980 --> 00:55:23,460
contributed

958
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:28,620
to it. Okay, so luckily, we have
a print journalist in our midst.

959
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:30,510
What do you think about
redacting? Should they be

960
00:55:30,510 --> 00:55:32,100
redacted? The the P bit

961
00:55:32,100 --> 00:55:35,820
action is done on behalf of the
government to keep certain names

962
00:55:35,820 --> 00:55:39,930
and addresses and maybe some
details away from the public in

963
00:55:39,930 --> 00:55:41,610
government documents?

964
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,490
Which is why Chuck Todd is so
familiar with it.

965
00:55:45,420 --> 00:55:50,250
That are you exactly. That is
used to protect certain is it's

966
00:55:50,250 --> 00:55:53,730
a protection mechanism that is
used by the government to censor

967
00:55:53,730 --> 00:55:57,090
stuff? Yes. That can't be given
out. This isn't a government

968
00:55:57,090 --> 00:56:01,140
document is some guys rant. Why
would you redact anything you

969
00:56:01,140 --> 00:56:02,790
look like a total douchebag?
Well,

970
00:56:03,030 --> 00:56:05,400
what it said what it tells I
think it uses

971
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,980
the word P let's take that word
P out.

972
00:56:08,850 --> 00:56:14,100
It. It shows that Chuck Todd
certainly believes this is a

973
00:56:14,100 --> 00:56:17,610
government document. I think
that's what it shows.

974
00:56:18,060 --> 00:56:21,390
No. I just think he thinks that
redaction

975
00:56:21,390 --> 00:56:21,720
is good. I

976
00:56:22,050 --> 00:56:23,460
understand. You're probably
right.

977
00:56:25,020 --> 00:56:27,060
I think here's another here's
another quickie late I'm gonna

978
00:56:27,060 --> 00:56:30,420
quote Margaret Sullivan. Who's
Margaret Solomon. Oh, yeah,

979
00:56:30,420 --> 00:56:31,350
right. Yes. Here we go.

980
00:56:31,410 --> 00:56:34,380
She just says flatly, it's never
been acceptable to publish rumor

981
00:56:34,380 --> 00:56:37,920
and innuendo period. I agree
with her.

982
00:56:38,009 --> 00:56:40,709
I think that we are now in a
media environment where you have

983
00:56:40,709 --> 00:56:45,629
to engage in Lauren at once. I
mean, I guess I think it's an

984
00:56:45,629 --> 00:56:48,809
event we have to you no longer
have the luxury, where the and

985
00:56:48,809 --> 00:56:52,529
where the legacy media, which
has, at times turned away from

986
00:56:52,529 --> 00:56:54,929
saying, Wow, there is all of
this crazy stuff on the

987
00:56:54,929 --> 00:56:56,549
internet, we're not going to
touch it. We're going to stay

988
00:56:56,549 --> 00:56:59,339
out of it. And we're just going
to kind of let it spread. And I

989
00:56:59,339 --> 00:57:02,159
think that sunlight is a
disinfectant where it is

990
00:57:02,159 --> 00:57:03,449
important to

991
00:57:03,870 --> 00:57:06,660
show I'm a little tired of the
sunlight is the best

992
00:57:06,660 --> 00:57:10,890
disinfectant. I'm tired of this.
I'm hearing this everywhere. So

993
00:57:10,890 --> 00:57:14,580
we believe sunlight is the best
disinfectant. I'm reading this

994
00:57:14,580 --> 00:57:18,690
in company mission statements,
all kinds of stuff. This is

995
00:57:18,690 --> 00:57:21,300
a tell somebody with the flesh
eating bacteria that

996
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,470
spread. And I think that this is
a place where sunlight is a

997
00:57:25,470 --> 00:57:28,890
disinfectant word is important
to show your audience

998
00:57:29,130 --> 00:57:32,310
you have it there was a line,
when does the line become

999
00:57:32,310 --> 00:57:33,570
yelling fire in a theater?

1000
00:57:33,930 --> 00:57:35,940
I think that you're absolutely
right that there's

1001
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:41,190
a fire in the theater. That's
the That's the right answer. I'm

1002
00:57:41,190 --> 00:57:43,500
sorry, the right answers. You
asked me the question, what when

1003
00:57:43,500 --> 00:57:45,840
does it become there was a time
when you can yell fire in the

1004
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,650
theater when there's a fire when
there's a fire? So fire is the

1005
00:57:49,650 --> 00:57:50,640
other right answer. Yeah.

1006
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:51,810
What is What is your answer?

1007
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:53,880
What is your answer to good
answers?

1008
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:55,740
My What is your answer?

1009
00:57:57,060 --> 00:57:59,190
When there's a fire? No, it is
the right answer is what I was

1010
00:57:59,190 --> 00:57:59,460
thinking

1011
00:57:59,759 --> 00:58:01,589
on become yelling fire in a
theater.

1012
00:58:01,980 --> 00:58:05,100
I think that you're absolutely
right, that there's that that

1013
00:58:05,130 --> 00:58:07,770
you can reasonable people can
disagree. I mean, I'm not sure

1014
00:58:07,770 --> 00:58:10,320
that you would say that the
effect of public that the effect

1015
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,390
of publishing this has made
people think it's more credible,

1016
00:58:12,420 --> 00:58:12,870
by the way.

1017
00:58:13,830 --> 00:58:17,430
Hold on. Yeah. I said no, I
actually had all this too, but I

1018
00:58:17,430 --> 00:58:22,470
cut it off. But you're right.
It's it's actually very good. U

1019
00:58:22,470 --> 00:58:25,890
haul you have to do is go to
BuzzFeed. to that article where

1020
00:58:25,890 --> 00:58:29,160
they released that document and
read the comments. What he said

1021
00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:33,450
is total bull crap. All the
comments are the same. Oh, this

1022
00:58:33,450 --> 00:58:37,290
will do it. This will finish off
Trump. The guy's a douche. I

1023
00:58:37,290 --> 00:58:40,620
knew Trump was doing stuff like
this. It was just a whole the

1024
00:58:40,620 --> 00:58:43,410
comment stream is all about how
bad Trump is.

1025
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:48,600
And what's so sad. And this is,
you see this on the face bag is

1026
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:54,000
that the people who live now you
and I live pretty much in two

1027
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,700
dimensions. At the same time.
It's very tiring, but we were

1028
00:58:56,700 --> 00:59:00,330
able to live in, in these two
dimensions that we've been split

1029
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:05,730
down the middle worldwide, for
sure. The United States. They

1030
00:59:05,730 --> 00:59:12,510
are so desperate is that they
like any, like anything crying

1031
00:59:12,510 --> 00:59:16,500
all the time. Anything that
floats by? They'll just grab it

1032
00:59:16,500 --> 00:59:21,210
as some driftwood grab it. Yes.
I mean, we do have a system in

1033
00:59:21,210 --> 00:59:25,650
America, we have a political
system. And you can there's ways

1034
00:59:25,650 --> 00:59:29,430
to work against the party you
don't like and a president you

1035
00:59:29,430 --> 00:59:32,670
don't like and there's a system
we have a system for that. It's

1036
00:59:32,670 --> 00:59:35,100
called governance. And there's
you know, there's rules and

1037
00:59:35,100 --> 00:59:39,360
regulations. And he's not a
dictator, but it's pathetic,

1038
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:44,580
this image. You see the stuff
the stuff that people are coming

1039
00:59:44,580 --> 00:59:48,570
up with for this, you know, for
the parade, you know, for the

1040
00:59:48,570 --> 00:59:53,040
big for the big Women's March.
And now women by the way, are

1041
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:56,280
all fight. They're all pissed
off that men aren't showing

1042
00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,730
enough support for the Women's
March. I mean, what do you want?

1043
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:04,650
What do you want? Huh? And then,
you know, part of this is the

1044
01:00:04,650 --> 01:00:10,350
pussy hat project. So everyone
has to knit a pussy hat.

1045
01:00:11,429 --> 01:00:12,329
Oh, I don't know this.

1046
01:00:12,359 --> 01:00:16,169
Oh my god. Yeah, it's a Lincoln.
Like, give me a link in the show

1047
01:00:16,169 --> 01:00:20,759
notes. I'll send it to you. It's
celeb celebrities. This is my

1048
01:00:20,759 --> 01:00:23,999
favorite. Celebrities are
calling for a total Hollywood

1049
01:00:23,999 --> 01:00:32,009
strike until Trump resigns. The
watch? Yes. Strike. No more

1050
01:00:32,009 --> 01:00:34,889
entertainment. Oh, no. What

1051
01:00:34,890 --> 01:00:36,480
will we do with that? We

1052
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:37,560
must have our movies.

1053
01:00:37,590 --> 01:00:42,270
What will we do? And this kind
of leads into Meryl Streep? I

1054
01:00:42,270 --> 01:00:47,310
didn't clip her everyone saw it.
But there is an issue a couple

1055
01:00:47,310 --> 01:00:54,450
of issues with what she said.
Number one to say that mixed

1056
01:00:54,450 --> 01:01:00,360
martial arts is not an art form
is I think a mistake

1057
01:01:01,830 --> 01:01:04,140
which is you got a lot of
backlash for saying oh yeah,

1058
01:01:04,140 --> 01:01:07,770
and to say that they're not an
international group is also you

1059
01:01:07,770 --> 01:01:09,990
that actually one of our
producer what she was thinking,

1060
01:01:09,990 --> 01:01:12,840
what did she do that Ashley is
one of our producers and she

1061
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:16,080
said, Hey, excuse me. I have
listed the current list of

1062
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,780
female and male UFC champions
where the respective

1063
01:01:18,780 --> 01:01:22,500
nationalities as you can see,
they're quite a bit more foreign

1064
01:01:22,500 --> 01:01:25,830
than Meryl Streep made it out to
be Poland, Brazil, us, Ireland,

1065
01:01:25,860 --> 01:01:27,420
England, Croatia.

1066
01:01:28,980 --> 01:01:30,960
Go all over to find those
maniacs. Yeah,

1067
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,860
but also it so this kind of
comes back to the same thing

1068
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,830
that people living this
dimension of we're all gonna die

1069
01:01:37,830 --> 01:01:41,280
Trump is horrible. You know?
We'll have no health care. We'll

1070
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:44,640
have to do abortions with with
coat hangers, and all this

1071
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:49,590
stuff. You know, the oh, well,
let's reach out to the

1072
01:01:49,590 --> 01:01:58,020
celebrity. And the hero worship
of Meryl Streep. Which to me was

1073
01:01:59,820 --> 01:02:04,560
almost disgusting. Almost almost
a seriously almost disgusting.

1074
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:09,240
It's really pathetic. Like, oh,
thank you Meryl. You really set

1075
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:13,710
it girl. You know, one of the
Oscars. I can't wait for that.

1076
01:02:13,710 --> 01:02:14,310
That's gonna be a

1077
01:02:14,370 --> 01:02:17,700
show. That's gonna go Jim. I
actually didn't see I'm sorry.

1078
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:19,530
Last clips on this.

1079
01:02:20,190 --> 01:02:24,090
But I'm not quite done. I just
wanted to play live a couple

1080
01:02:24,090 --> 01:02:27,210
more things. We got to take a
break though. So I think we're

1081
01:02:27,210 --> 01:02:32,310
in agreement that BuzzFeed de
totally in their right. There's

1082
01:02:32,310 --> 01:02:34,770
not a news organization. But
they do

1083
01:02:34,770 --> 01:02:37,920
listen. I don't care where they
are not they can do this. Yeah,

1084
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:39,570
but they do. listicles who gives
a

1085
01:02:39,570 --> 01:02:46,500
crap? Now CNN who pretend to be
a credible news organization. I

1086
01:02:46,500 --> 01:02:50,940
think that they definitely were
screwed up they screwed up. And

1087
01:02:50,970 --> 01:02:56,850
the the amount of defense people
coming to CNN is defense on

1088
01:02:56,850 --> 01:03:00,090
this. In fact, Here is Shep
Smith from Fox new Fox News

1089
01:03:00,090 --> 01:03:01,350
defending CNN,

1090
01:03:01,380 --> 01:03:05,370
the internet is now courage the
sorry, that's the wrong one.

1091
01:03:05,370 --> 01:03:05,520
Here

1092
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,270
it is further. President elect
Trump today told CNN Jim Acosta,

1093
01:03:09,510 --> 01:03:13,890
that his organization amounts to
fake news. CNN is exclusive

1094
01:03:13,890 --> 01:03:16,560
reporting on the Russian matter
was separate and distinctly

1095
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:19,980
different from the document dump
executed by an online news

1096
01:03:19,980 --> 01:03:24,450
property that we at Fox News
cannot confirm CNN report. It is

1097
01:03:24,450 --> 01:03:27,540
our observation that its
correspondence followed

1098
01:03:27,540 --> 01:03:31,440
journalistic standards and that
neither they nor any other

1099
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,650
journalists should be subjected
to belittling, and D

1100
01:03:34,650 --> 01:03:38,220
legitimizing by the president
elect of the United States.

1101
01:03:38,279 --> 01:03:40,229
And then here's CNN with an X
Wait,

1102
01:03:40,230 --> 01:03:44,130
hold on a second. He calls him
an online news property instead

1103
01:03:44,130 --> 01:03:47,310
of actually mentioning BuzzFeed
data some spite.

1104
01:03:47,759 --> 01:03:50,459
I don't know why. Maybe that's a
Fox News.

1105
01:03:51,690 --> 01:03:55,170
Why they mentioned CNN, which is
a direct competitor. BuzzFeed

1106
01:03:55,170 --> 01:03:55,560
isn't?

1107
01:03:55,590 --> 01:04:00,450
I don't know. I don't know. But
here's CNN is panel talking

1108
01:04:00,450 --> 01:04:03,690
about hate and hostility towards
journalists. Oh, yeah. It's

1109
01:04:03,690 --> 01:04:04,470
finally Ave

1110
01:04:04,500 --> 01:04:07,950
he doesn't think about the
implications to anybody other

1111
01:04:07,950 --> 01:04:12,030
than himself. Have you ever
heard of anybody in politics,

1112
01:04:12,030 --> 01:04:15,930
let alone a presidential nominee
doing anything like this to the

1113
01:04:15,930 --> 01:04:19,470
fourth is much, much worse than
the Fourth Estate,

1114
01:04:19,740 --> 01:04:21,360
the fourth estate and

1115
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:26,610
Obama do with Fox when he first
got in on the White House press

1116
01:04:26,610 --> 01:04:28,050
company arrested people.

1117
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:30,840
The fourth is this is much, much
worse than what we've seen in

1118
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:34,110
the past. It is one thing for
candidates to criticize the

1119
01:04:34,110 --> 01:04:37,200
press say they're getting bad
coverage. But Donald Trump is

1120
01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:40,350
routinely lying to his
supporters about the media.

1121
01:04:40,380 --> 01:04:43,860
Yeah, in little ways and in big
ways. And that has damaging

1122
01:04:43,860 --> 01:04:47,070
effects. For the viewers who are
watching and more importantly

1123
01:04:47,130 --> 01:04:49,680
for the voters who support him
because they're being misled and

1124
01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:53,820
there's a mob mentality now of
steak. People are yelling and

1125
01:04:53,820 --> 01:04:56,430
shouting and threatening
reporters in a way I've never

1126
01:04:56,430 --> 01:04:57,150
seen. That's right.

1127
01:04:57,150 --> 01:04:58,140
They go over to the prospect. I

1128
01:04:58,140 --> 01:05:00,360
mean, they I mean, there's the
largest Shut up.

1129
01:05:02,100 --> 01:05:05,940
But then there's the individual
aspect of people going to the

1130
01:05:05,940 --> 01:05:10,380
press and the press are penned
in and yelling at them making

1131
01:05:10,740 --> 01:05:11,790
vulgar gestures.

1132
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:19,290
I dealt with it. At the RNC, I
get the passion. But a

1133
01:05:19,290 --> 01:05:22,680
politician has a responsibility
you shake the passion of people,

1134
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:26,220
I don't mean to call supporters,
sheep, I respect people who want

1135
01:05:26,220 --> 01:05:30,000
to back politicians trust me,
but he makes them angry. And

1136
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,640
then instead of saying things to
you, they want to do things to

1137
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:34,530
you, and I'm telling you,
something's gonna happen.

1138
01:05:35,340 --> 01:05:36,240
Something is going,

1139
01:05:36,810 --> 01:05:39,030
something's gonna happen. I'm
telling, like,

1140
01:05:39,300 --> 01:05:41,910
we had this clip of our local
guy went to a Trump thing, and

1141
01:05:41,910 --> 01:05:44,400
he says it seemed like it was in
good fun. They were yelling and

1142
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,400
screaming at the press. So he
says he never felt threatened.

1143
01:05:47,490 --> 01:05:50,790
Now, these people don't get out
much. I have two clips in this

1144
01:05:50,790 --> 01:05:53,910
next clip is the topper to what
you just played. Here is the

1145
01:05:53,910 --> 01:05:59,880
same kind of thing that you just
played by Ed Schultz. And he is

1146
01:06:01,050 --> 01:06:04,230
Schultz is the guy who used to
be at MSNBC on RT firebrand,

1147
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,790
a US intelligence community
product, and they have not made

1148
01:06:08,790 --> 01:06:12,990
any judgments on RT America host
Ed Schultz told us that

1149
01:06:12,990 --> 01:06:16,650
publishing unverified stories is
ruining the credibility of

1150
01:06:16,650 --> 01:06:17,670
several outlets.

1151
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:22,230
I think that this is a low time
for journalism in America, that

1152
01:06:22,260 --> 01:06:25,530
this is going to hurt the entire
industry. It's unfortunate that

1153
01:06:25,860 --> 01:06:29,640
CNN is letting it play out like
the old movie, The Godfather,

1154
01:06:29,820 --> 01:06:33,060
there's a lot of buffers here.
Nobody wants to say who did

1155
01:06:33,060 --> 01:06:35,430
what, when and how. But there's
just a lot of buffers, and

1156
01:06:35,430 --> 01:06:39,060
there's a few names on there.
Keep in mind that all of these

1157
01:06:39,060 --> 01:06:42,960
intelligence people work for
Barack Obama. Keep in mind that

1158
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:46,440
this reeks of Clinton politics.
This is the kind of stuff that

1159
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:49,680
they do. They get behind the
scenes, they get operatives,

1160
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:54,060
they pay them off, they get an
MI six guy involved and they get

1161
01:06:54,060 --> 01:06:56,460
this person involved in that
person involved. The next thing

1162
01:06:56,460 --> 01:06:59,070
you know, it's in the mainstream
media. And oh, by the way,

1163
01:06:59,070 --> 01:07:02,670
Donald Trump is put in a
position today where he has to

1164
01:07:02,670 --> 01:07:07,650
come out and label CNN fake
news. CNN took the bite, and now

1165
01:07:07,650 --> 01:07:10,740
they're taking the dive their
credibility right now goes right

1166
01:07:10,740 --> 01:07:12,960
in the toilet for what has
happened to them over the last

1167
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:16,980
48 hours. Jake Tapper actually
went on the air last night with

1168
01:07:16,980 --> 01:07:20,370
other anchors and reporters and
said, we've been working on

1169
01:07:20,370 --> 01:07:24,060
this. This is outrageous.
They've taken a couple of phone

1170
01:07:24,060 --> 01:07:26,850
calls from people who are trying
to get Donald Trump. They've

1171
01:07:26,850 --> 01:07:30,240
tried to turn it into a story.
It's unsourced. And as I said,

1172
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,300
there's times in this business
of yesteryear, when people acted

1173
01:07:33,300 --> 01:07:34,380
like this was they got

1174
01:07:34,410 --> 01:07:39,810
fired. Oh, boy, he's really
changed. I don't recognize him.

1175
01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:44,100
It's very funny. Now, the funny
thing is, is that they trump

1176
01:07:44,100 --> 01:07:46,710
thanked all these news
organizations for really

1177
01:07:46,710 --> 01:07:51,060
reporting on this. But what he
missed on was the the night of

1178
01:07:51,060 --> 01:07:56,100
the night after that. All the
late night hosts all of them

1179
01:07:56,820 --> 01:08:00,870
didn't material. And the
material was, I think, worse

1180
01:08:00,870 --> 01:08:03,840
than any news report. It's
shameful. But you have to admit

1181
01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:07,230
it's funny. And I do have one
clip of Jimmy Kimmel's rude

1182
01:08:07,230 --> 01:08:11,250
routine on this particular
thing. This is ABC, and you have

1183
01:08:11,250 --> 01:08:14,910
to assume that it's once the
cat's out of the bag, which I

1184
01:08:14,910 --> 01:08:17,220
think it was, you know, the once
the story is out, and once you

1185
01:08:17,220 --> 01:08:22,410
hear these, these these ad
assertions, not only do they do

1186
01:08:22,410 --> 01:08:25,440
material on it, which is what a
comedian is supposed to do, but

1187
01:08:25,440 --> 01:08:30,120
they add a little negative Trump
stuff in there just to make it

1188
01:08:30,150 --> 01:08:32,880
worse. I mean, this is not
healthy. What's what you're

1189
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:33,480
going to hear

1190
01:08:34,020 --> 01:08:36,840
heard about this because this
story that just came through but

1191
01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:40,500
the big story today CNN learned
that top intelligence officials

1192
01:08:40,500 --> 01:08:44,070
in the United States like FBI
CIA, have presented evidence

1193
01:08:44,070 --> 01:08:47,220
that Russian operatives claimed
to have compromising personal

1194
01:08:47,220 --> 01:08:50,760
and financial information about
Donald Trump and you hate to

1195
01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,940
mention unsubstantiated rumors
about Trump because he would

1196
01:08:53,940 --> 01:08:58,080
never do that to someone else.
But there's a document going

1197
01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:02,340
around that indicates he hired
prostitutes to perform golden

1198
01:09:02,340 --> 01:09:08,040
showers on a bed the Obamas once
slept, in which stat so that is

1199
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:13,230
a leak of elite. Maybe this is
what Hillary was hinting at when

1200
01:09:13,230 --> 01:09:15,180
she mentioned Trump trickle down
economics.

1201
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:26,610
The intelligence of Israel say
not only does Russia claim to

1202
01:09:26,610 --> 01:09:30,030
have information on Trump, there
was a continuing exchange of

1203
01:09:30,030 --> 01:09:33,630
information during the campaign
between Trump's people and the

1204
01:09:33,630 --> 01:09:37,890
Russian government, which would
can a president be impeached

1205
01:09:37,890 --> 01:09:39,390
before he's even inaugurated?

1206
01:09:40,529 --> 01:09:44,009
Well, it's your own fault. John,
your own damn fault. You brought

1207
01:09:44,009 --> 01:09:49,769
up ABC, sorry. Now you have to
endure. You know what I'm

1208
01:09:49,769 --> 01:09:54,749
talking about? ABC. Okay. This
is how the ladies of the view

1209
01:09:55,379 --> 01:10:00,239
responded to this news. And
remember a lot of women get

1210
01:10:00,239 --> 01:10:02,399
their news from the view they
believe that this is

1211
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:06,300
so if I didn't play that last
clip I last I would put into

1212
01:10:06,300 --> 01:10:09,180
play this bullcrap I would have

1213
01:10:10,020 --> 01:10:11,550
used to be right is bullcrap.

1214
01:10:13,290 --> 01:10:17,280
Donald Trump had just been
rocked by an unsubstantiated

1215
01:10:17,610 --> 01:10:22,020
collection of research memos
claiming Russian operatives have

1216
01:10:22,440 --> 01:10:27,810
compromising financial and
personal info that they can use

1217
01:10:27,810 --> 01:10:31,380
to blackmail him. Now, we can't
get into specifics, but I do

1218
01:10:31,380 --> 01:10:38,430
have a Shaolin with allegations
right now. Is this a golden

1219
01:10:38,430 --> 01:10:44,760
opportunity? Democrat? Will he
be able to clean his lakes?

1220
01:10:48,540 --> 01:10:51,810
Why is it that when

1221
01:10:53,790 --> 01:10:57,030
people on mainstream media or
some would say legacy media,

1222
01:10:57,990 --> 01:11:00,930
by the way, I didn't mention it
when they came up with one of

1223
01:11:00,930 --> 01:11:04,290
the previous quotes, this is
show showing up a lot. legacy

1224
01:11:04,290 --> 01:11:07,530
media, I think, is that I
haven't really heard this like

1225
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:11,040
six months ago, during what do
we want? Corporate media, big

1226
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:11,850
media?

1227
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:14,670
Do we want to adopt that? I
mean, it's it's a delicacy.

1228
01:11:14,790 --> 01:11:17,850
I don't know that we want to
adopt it. But I definitely want

1229
01:11:17,850 --> 01:11:22,320
to make people aware of it being
used to for mainstream, may it

1230
01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:23,490
just be MSM. Right.

1231
01:11:23,490 --> 01:11:27,150
So what is mainstream media?
Yeah, I don't like that. What is

1232
01:11:27,150 --> 01:11:33,090
mainstream? What is the well,
you know, what? Let's get the

1233
01:11:33,090 --> 01:11:36,930
exact definition of mainstream
the ideas, attitudes or

1234
01:11:36,930 --> 01:11:39,690
activities that are regarded as
normal or conventional, the

1235
01:11:39,690 --> 01:11:45,930
dominant trend in opinion,
fashion or the arts. Okay, and I

1236
01:11:45,930 --> 01:11:47,610
think it's still mainstream,
because it's still the

1237
01:11:47,610 --> 01:11:50,880
dominating opinion. Would you
not agree? Yes, absolutely.

1238
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,610
Okay. So it's still the
dominating opinion. And we

1239
01:11:53,610 --> 01:11:59,430
continue. What I was going to
say is, it's amazing that people

1240
01:11:59,430 --> 01:12:03,660
love the simplest jokes I made.
I made the same jokes in the

1241
01:12:03,660 --> 01:12:08,250
opening of the show. Yeah, did
we get but you go, who? And by

1242
01:12:08,250 --> 01:12:13,950
the way, I agree. But everyone
else is clapping. It's fabulous.

1243
01:12:13,950 --> 01:12:19,740
Oh, Jimmy Kimmel, you made so
many funny. Use of funny instead

1244
01:12:19,740 --> 01:12:23,730
of just saying, just what was in
the report? We can't say that

1245
01:12:23,730 --> 01:12:27,570
because I don't know. It's gonna
butthurt somebody? Why don't we

1246
01:12:27,570 --> 01:12:30,930
just say what's in the report?
You know, why does mo kinda did

1247
01:12:31,590 --> 01:12:34,320
kind of, but then he again, goes
back to golden shower. This has

1248
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:43,410
nothing to do with golden shower
anyway to get the morning,

1249
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:49,350
you know, you know,
unsubstantiated but you know, I

1250
01:12:49,350 --> 01:12:54,060
do recall, though, you know,
that when, you know, the days

1251
01:12:54,060 --> 01:12:56,280
when they were saying, you know,
Mama's not?

1252
01:12:57,210 --> 01:13:00,030
Oh, she's Oh, she's so old.
She's still using, you know,

1253
01:13:00,030 --> 01:13:01,320
hello. 1980 days

1254
01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:05,670
when they were saying, you know,
Obama's not on America. He's,

1255
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:12,690
he's, he's, he's part of the,
the, he's a Muslim, or he's part

1256
01:13:12,690 --> 01:13:15,420
of the Taliban. Those weren't

1257
01:13:15,599 --> 01:13:22,019
squinted. Did anyone say he was
part of the Taliban? Wow.

1258
01:13:23,100 --> 01:13:27,180
Those were fake news. And yet
they ran with it. Yeah. So well,

1259
01:13:27,180 --> 01:13:27,510
we're gonna

1260
01:13:28,590 --> 01:13:31,740
I think she's saying the news.
Who, right?

1261
01:13:31,770 --> 01:13:33,960
I never heard anybody running
with this

1262
01:13:34,110 --> 01:13:37,170
with the TAT Well, there was
certainly Taliban or Muslim

1263
01:13:37,170 --> 01:13:39,840
Well, what she's trying to say
is the birth certificate she's

1264
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,300
trying to say the birth
certificate but she can't say it

1265
01:13:42,300 --> 01:13:44,430
I don't know why she can't say I
don't know what's going on

1266
01:13:47,550 --> 01:13:48,990
whatever she said it was funny.

1267
01:13:51,870 --> 01:13:54,360
This present came a little late.
My running shoes

1268
01:13:54,660 --> 01:13:57,510
with the Russians are calling
these leaks nonsense. They're

1269
01:13:57,510 --> 01:14:00,720
saying no, none of this is true.
None of this is true. But you

1270
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:00,900
know,

1271
01:14:00,900 --> 01:14:03,030
awkwardness warping, the
Russians are saying it the

1272
01:14:03,030 --> 01:14:05,280
operative word being the
Russians are saying it's little

1273
01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:06,000
more than one word.

1274
01:14:06,030 --> 01:14:11,550
I think that the ex CIA acting
director, his name's Michael

1275
01:14:11,550 --> 01:14:15,120
Morrell. He said this morning,
that they do appear to be

1276
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:20,340
intelligence reports. Oh Morales
in on it from an MI six British

1277
01:14:20,370 --> 01:14:24,060
intelligence officer. And so
while they are unsubstantiated

1278
01:14:24,060 --> 01:14:28,500
and unsourced or unconfirmed, I
think what we really need to be

1279
01:14:28,590 --> 01:14:32,790
concerned about is the fact that
our now future president could

1280
01:14:32,820 --> 01:14:37,980
possibly be at the, you know, as
compromised by our Russian

1281
01:14:38,010 --> 01:14:42,900
adversary. And they could have
information that could I guess,

1282
01:14:43,440 --> 01:14:44,760
blackmail him? Well, here's

1283
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:49,410
the thing like so I know I have
a source I can't name who it is,

1284
01:14:49,440 --> 01:14:55,380
oh, my source says that he owes
the Russians a lot of money like

1285
01:14:55,380 --> 01:14:58,620
a half a billion dollars or
something back to now here's the

1286
01:14:58,620 --> 01:15:03,480
scenario. So he becomes The
President Oh my god. I know

1287
01:15:04,500 --> 01:15:08,040
because you know, as day follows
night that's gonna happen. She

1288
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:08,160
was

1289
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:10,800
She This is the first time she
actually said Trump will be

1290
01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:12,570
president. This has been very
hard for her.

1291
01:15:13,620 --> 01:15:16,920
So he becomes the this the
leader of the free world, you

1292
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:22,110
can't make this up. And, and the
Russians can blackmail him about

1293
01:15:22,140 --> 01:15:25,410
the boycotts, for example. And
the all of the stuff that we've

1294
01:15:25,410 --> 01:15:26,070
been doing what she

1295
01:15:26,070 --> 01:15:29,520
can't figure out what she also
is, what she's just bad, she's

1296
01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:30,750
trying to say is sanctions,

1297
01:15:31,349 --> 01:15:34,319
sanctions, the sanctions, right,
so he lives for sanctions,

1298
01:15:34,559 --> 01:15:38,309
because otherwise we're gonna
get to soccer. And that's why

1299
01:15:38,669 --> 01:15:41,339
there's a problem. That's
exactly why there is a problem.

1300
01:15:41,519 --> 01:15:44,279
To clarify, our legal team is
saying that this is a collection

1301
01:15:44,279 --> 01:15:47,789
of research and memo. This is
the ABC legal teams, ABC News is

1302
01:15:47,789 --> 01:15:50,819
saying this is unconfirmed, this
is unverified as explosive, but

1303
01:15:50,819 --> 01:15:54,209
unsubstantiated allegations.
With that being said, you have

1304
01:15:54,209 --> 01:15:57,329
to say that because this stuff
is unverified, if any of this is

1305
01:15:57,329 --> 01:15:59,609
true, and is found to be true,
and the FBI is currently

1306
01:15:59,609 --> 01:16:01,739
investigating it, they're doing
their job. This is very

1307
01:16:01,739 --> 01:16:04,739
problematic, because the
allegations are that there was

1308
01:16:04,739 --> 01:16:07,979
collusion between the Trump
campaign and the Russians. And

1309
01:16:07,979 --> 01:16:10,619
if you remember, a lot of people
that opposed Hillary Clinton

1310
01:16:10,649 --> 01:16:13,859
opposed to our because they felt
that as a result of this email

1311
01:16:13,859 --> 01:16:17,189
leak, that she was potentially
compromised, that there could

1312
01:16:17,189 --> 01:16:19,409
have sworn and untrustworthy and
not only that, but there could

1313
01:16:19,409 --> 01:16:21,449
have been foreign involvement
and all of these questions

1314
01:16:21,449 --> 01:16:24,899
conservative rose, which I think
were justified came up now many

1315
01:16:24,899 --> 01:16:28,019
of those people all of a sudden,
don't have a problem with any of

1316
01:16:28,019 --> 01:16:31,499
these stories. You know what?
Question everything right now

1317
01:16:31,529 --> 01:16:33,719
everything that comes out, you
need to question it and you need

1318
01:16:33,719 --> 01:16:37,289
to let investigators do their
job. The fact that this went to

1319
01:16:37,289 --> 01:16:40,559
President Obama, this has gone
to top officials now

1320
01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:43,080
we're going to have Whoopi wrap
it all up and she's just going

1321
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:44,910
to come out and say she thinks
it's probably true.

1322
01:16:44,940 --> 01:16:49,830
Wayne's gay went to Mr. And it's
not like they just found this

1323
01:16:49,830 --> 01:16:55,770
out. They had known this for a
while. Listen, y'all set the

1324
01:16:55,770 --> 01:17:00,060
bar. You set this up. You said
this is we should trust all

1325
01:17:00,060 --> 01:17:04,110
this. Well, now we gotta trust
this to you. It's not good for

1326
01:17:04,110 --> 01:17:05,070
the goose and not good.

1327
01:17:08,250 --> 01:17:10,890
Like it's not good for the goose
and good for the gander. These

1328
01:17:10,890 --> 01:17:15,090
people are crazy. They're just
throwing out throwing out things

1329
01:17:15,090 --> 01:17:20,430
and even know what it means. But
Oh yeah, well, this could be

1330
01:17:20,430 --> 01:17:23,610
true. We gotta believe this. We
got we got to do that Shane

1331
01:17:23,610 --> 01:17:27,420
things possum it's just
shameful. Anyway, that's, uh, I

1332
01:17:27,420 --> 01:17:30,060
guess that's kind of what we
have. Or he is our president.

1333
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:37,560
He's Trump. He's the president
of that jingle. And with that,

1334
01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:39,450
I'd like to thank you for your
courage and say in the morning

1335
01:17:39,450 --> 01:17:43,800
to you John. So he stands for
CNN is fake news don't

1336

morning to all of our artists

1342
01:18:02,340 --> 01:18:05,880
but specifically I would like to
say in the morning to Mark G who

brought us the album artwork for
episode 8903. throw a rock nice

1344
01:18:11,070 --> 01:18:15,300
piece of art with a quasi
government troll on the it was

1345
01:18:15,300 --> 01:18:18,780
just a beautiful piece of art.
It was well done. Like oh,

1346
01:18:18,780 --> 01:18:20,070
we liked it. Yes, for sure.

1347
01:18:20,100 --> 01:18:24,750
I know agenda are generated.com.
We appreciate Mark jeez efforts

1348
01:18:24,750 --> 01:18:28,050
and of course, everyone who
submit something which is used

1349
01:18:28,050 --> 01:18:30,000
for newsletters and all kinds of
stuff.

1350
01:18:30,990 --> 01:18:37,590
Indeed. Okay, so we got a couple
of we don't have any Associate

1351
01:18:37,590 --> 01:18:41,040
Executive producers, but we have
a bunch of executive producers

1352
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:45,870
12345 of them. This is new.
Yeah, it is new. And starting

1353
01:18:45,870 --> 01:18:50,190
with John Hall in El Paso, Texas
that both of these top donors

1354
01:18:50,190 --> 01:18:56,130
are sending in a lot of money
$1,000 from haul it by cheque.

1355
01:18:56,850 --> 01:19:02,220
And so Hall writes a note. He
actually has my handwriting, but

1356
01:19:02,250 --> 01:19:05,850
when I was younger, it's weird.
As a longtime listener, and

1357
01:19:05,850 --> 01:19:09,750
unfortunately a huge boner. It's
way past time that I donated to

1358
01:19:09,750 --> 01:19:11,580
the show, so he hasn't donated
before. So you.

1359
01:19:14,130 --> 01:19:17,820
You've been de deuced right off
the bat. Oh,

1360
01:19:18,300 --> 01:19:21,840
he actually asked for that. I
just want to take a moment to

1361
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,150
thank both of you for the
incredible job you do. You have

1362
01:19:24,150 --> 01:19:27,180
definitely preserved my sanity
over the years and especially

1363
01:19:27,180 --> 01:19:30,300
during the past election season.
You have made me laugh

1364
01:19:30,300 --> 01:19:33,660
incredibly hard and educated me
on a wide variety of subjects

1365
01:19:33,660 --> 01:19:39,330
ranging from cooking, double dip
recession, slaves to do

1366
01:19:39,330 --> 01:19:44,070
politics, history, technology
and entrepreneurship. This is

1367
01:19:44,070 --> 01:19:45,450
what we do. We

1368
01:19:45,480 --> 01:19:49,140
failed. We are serial
entrepreneurs one gig for 10

1369
01:19:49,140 --> 01:19:49,830
years as

1370
01:19:50,910 --> 01:19:53,250
the show's balance of
entertainment and education is

1371
01:19:53,250 --> 01:19:56,460
remarkable. It's a remarkable
accomplishment. I also applaud

1372
01:19:56,460 --> 01:19:59,250
both of you for your courage. I
believe it took real audacity to

1373
01:19:59,250 --> 01:20:02,550
start no agenda No and even more
to remain committed to the show

1374
01:20:02,550 --> 01:20:07,290
for so long and never selling
out. agreed this except my

1375
01:20:07,290 --> 01:20:10,710
donation and my apology for
being such a boner I humbly

human resource karma for my wife

01:21:58,139 --> 01:21:59,129
You're the chicken?

1402
01:21:59,309 --> 01:22:01,559
I thought it was the red
chicken? Well, he

1403
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:04,470
says red chicken. I mean, I
think he's referring to red fire

1404
01:22:04,470 --> 01:22:04,980
chicken.

1405
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:07,650
Red Fire chicken. Is that is
that? Is that the official

1406
01:22:07,650 --> 01:22:08,310
Chinese here?

1407
01:22:08,670 --> 01:22:11,820

rooster. Well,

01:22:11,820 --> 01:22:13,740
maybe it's the year of the hot
caulk then.

1409
01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:19,950
Could be is. That would be a red
fire chicken. Yeah. Okay. No

John Adam. I was in line at

1417
01:22:51,330 --> 01:22:53,550
Starbucks behind the white
delivery van. Listen to the show

1418
01:22:53,550 --> 01:22:57,570

not cutting the whipped cream on

1419
01:22:57,570 --> 01:23:00,540
my overpriced drink. Yeah, so
the past few days, I've been

1420
01:23:00,540 --> 01:23:04,050
thinking about an old instrument
I have. Sorry, story seems to be

1421
01:23:04,050 --> 01:23:06,270
going the route of a shaggy dog
and had been considering

1422
01:23:06,270 --> 01:23:10,770
donating it to the show. The
Indira The mbira is a

1423
01:23:10,770 --> 01:23:14,790
traditional African instrument
and it's a lot of fun to mess

1424
01:23:14,790 --> 01:23:18,960
around and play with. I saw I
look up at this van and while

1425
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:21,690
I'm not the superstitious type,
the license plate was jaw

1426
01:23:21,690 --> 01:23:25,320
dropping. This is what I saw.
Which means I have to click on

1427
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,150
the attachment to open it.

1428
01:23:27,150 --> 01:23:30,000
It's a good one. Okay, hold on.

1429
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:32,760
It's not opening I'll continue
to read.

1430
01:23:33,150 --> 01:23:36,780
What did not tell you what it is
is Texas plate that says d bag

1431
01:23:37,500 --> 01:23:40,860
3333. No. Yes.

1432
01:23:42,270 --> 01:23:43,620
That must be a listener.

1433
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:47,610
Maybe it's

1434
01:23:47,610 --> 01:23:50,430
definitely Fantastic. Well, it
was a clear sign I needed to

1435
01:23:50,430 --> 01:23:54,120
donate. She says until last year
I did a terrible job in retail

1436
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,040
and this past year we've not
only found a brand new career,

1437
01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,170
but I've already been promoted
to a very nice position within a

1438
01:23:58,170 --> 01:24:01,020
company I was on a $5 month
subscription. But now I can

1439
01:24:01,020 --> 01:24:03,840
definitely give more I'm trading
out my $5 month subscription for

1440
01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:07,980
the 3333 for still doing podcast
licenses. I'd love one yes, I'll

1441
01:24:07,980 --> 01:24:10,320
set it up for you just email me
where you want it to point to.

1442
01:24:11,130 --> 01:24:13,980
The value for value model ROG
works and it's time for me to

1443
01:24:13,980 --> 01:24:17,910
give my part and be a day madam.
I remember when I was a kid. If

1444
01:24:17,910 --> 01:24:20,580
I was really good, my parents
would let me stay up and watch

1445
01:24:20,580 --> 01:24:24,270
you on headbangers ball. Imagine
my surprise years later to get

1446
01:24:24,270 --> 01:24:26,880
hit in the mouth by a co worker
from my interest in 911 and

1447
01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,700
discover my favorite long laws
Vijay hosting something really

1448
01:24:29,700 --> 01:24:35,580
special. John your snappy banter
had me immediately hooked a true

1449
01:24:35,580 --> 01:24:43,200
dream team. I hope you guys live
forever. Yeah, me too. So she

1450
01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:50,250
says please accept my donation.
Holy crap of $777.77 hockey

1451

01:25:01,770 --> 01:25:03,750
These sheets are added to the
list. Yeah, she's

1455
01:25:03,750 --> 01:25:06,090
not on the list. You're right.
That's

1456
01:25:07,259 --> 01:25:10,439
what was because she did email.
No, we didn't forward it to

1457
01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:10,889
Eric.

1458
01:25:11,129 --> 01:25:18,119
Right. Okay, so that is Shannon
brain and she wants to be Dane.

1459
01:25:18,119 --> 01:25:18,689

1478
01:26:39,510 --> 01:26:44,370
Please as half of as much half

Desert sprawl. Okay, got it.

1480
01:26:49,830 --> 01:26:56,490
proced is this all donors? Yeah.
Suck it to all douchebags. We

1481
01:26:59,700 --> 01:27:01,950
All right, perfect. Let me give
this guy a karma. Thank you so

1482
01:27:01,950 --> 01:27:05,610
much. You've got karma

1483
01:27:05,610 --> 01:27:10,110
outstanding. Oh, no associates,
but we'll take the exact for

1484
01:27:10,110 --> 01:27:13,170
today. Thank you very much.
Appreciate that. And of course,

1485
01:27:13,170 --> 01:27:15,300
these are real credits, which
you can put on your LinkedIn

1486
01:27:15,300 --> 01:27:17,850
seems to work extremely well,
although no longer in Russia.

1487
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,390
You know that they took the
Russia, you got to take the

1488
01:27:21,570 --> 01:27:23,700
LinkedIn app out of your app
store apple.

1489
01:27:24,750 --> 01:27:28,830
Why? Because again, you still
get to it on the internet on the

1490
01:27:28,830 --> 01:27:29,280
web.

1491
01:27:30,030 --> 01:27:33,030
The reason? No, I think they're
blocking it. And the reason why

1492
01:27:33,030 --> 01:27:36,780
is because they do not adhere to
the Russian law, which is very

1493
01:27:36,780 --> 01:27:41,070
similar to the EU, you have to
have a copy of the data on

1494
01:27:41,100 --> 01:27:45,720
Russian servers, not just
somewhere else. Well, yeah. So

1495
01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,110
So it's being taken out anyway,
forget that. You can still get

1496
01:27:49,110 --> 01:27:51,450
gigs, maybe not in Russia, but
maybe in United States by

1497
01:27:51,450 --> 01:27:54,090
putting that executive producer
ship right on your profile.

1498
01:27:54,180 --> 01:27:56,340
People seem to dig it. We
certainly do. And I'll be

1499
01:27:56,340 --> 01:27:59,370
talking more about the
relationship, the new modern

1500
01:27:59,370 --> 01:28:03,180
relationship between artists and
their audiences, why they're

1501
01:28:03,180 --> 01:28:06,720
melding into one which is why we
call you producers. And in this

1502
01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:09,390
case, executive producers. Now
the show coming up on Sunday,

1503
01:28:09,390 --> 01:28:15,180
remember I remember.org/and and
I'll be in Amsterdam for the

1504
01:28:15,180 --> 01:28:17,970
show on Sunday. And while you're
at it, coffee formula, our

1505
01:28:17,970 --> 01:28:29,670
formula is this we go out for
hit people in the mouth Hey,

1506
01:28:29,670 --> 01:28:35,580
citizens. Nice.

1507
01:28:36,270 --> 01:28:40,710
I'm gonna read a note from Scott
Hamilton, who actually is the

1508
01:28:40,710 --> 01:28:42,480
notice of reference Scott
Hamilton

1509
01:28:42,480 --> 01:28:45,030
the the skater? I

1510
01:28:45,030 --> 01:28:49,290
don't I really doubt it. It's
like Cohen pretty common name.

1511
01:28:49,440 --> 01:28:53,070
Oh, no agenda shall be remains
the best podcast because it's

1512
01:28:53,070 --> 01:28:55,410
not beholding to advertisers.
And he points to this thing

1513
01:28:55,410 --> 01:29:00,660
that's in the Holiday Inn entry
on Wikipedia, which is a movie

1514
01:29:00,660 --> 01:29:03,870
he and his wife just watched and
the Wikipedia says beginning in

1515
01:29:03,870 --> 01:29:08,400
the 1980s, some broadcasts of
the film entire entirely omitted

1516
01:29:08,400 --> 01:29:12,540
the Abraham musical number
staged at the end for Lincoln's

1517
01:29:12,540 --> 01:29:16,320
birthday. It is in this movie
Holiday Inn, because of its dis

1518
01:29:16,350 --> 01:29:19,560
depiction of a Blackface
minstrel show incorporating

1519
01:29:19,560 --> 01:29:22,140
images and behaviors that are
now considered offensive.

1520
01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:26,970
However, because Turner Classic
Movies airs, uncut and unedited

1521
01:29:26,970 --> 01:29:30,150
the network is left to Abraham
number intact. During the

1522
01:29:30,150 --> 01:29:35,820
screenings of Holiday Inn. AMC
also aired the film intact

1523
01:29:35,970 --> 01:29:39,450
before they became an advertiser
supported channel to avoid

1524
01:29:39,450 --> 01:29:43,470
advertiser objections. The
edited version now airs annually

1525
01:29:43,470 --> 01:29:49,530
on AMC just a little point that
advertising has this influence

1526
01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:53,100
to keep people from seeing or
discussing certain things or

1527
01:29:53,100 --> 01:29:55,260
saying, Yes, this case, yes.

1528
01:29:57,450 --> 01:29:59,280
Well, I want to talk about
something else which I think is

1529
01:29:59,310 --> 01:30:03,090
very pourtant case I'm not quite
sure of the legal status of it,

1530
01:30:03,090 --> 01:30:07,590
but it is being discussed in the
Senate right now. And it's

1531
01:30:07,590 --> 01:30:11,130
incredibly important for social
media networks and why this is

1532
01:30:11,130 --> 01:30:15,570
getting zero play. I've been I
caught it on C span, by

1533
01:30:15,570 --> 01:30:16,290
accident.

1534
01:30:18,420 --> 01:30:19,440
By serendipity,

1535
01:30:19,590 --> 01:30:24,750
serendipity would be the right
thing. The premier place for

1536
01:30:25,770 --> 01:30:31,500
escorts to advertise their wares
is Backpage. I don't know if

1537
01:30:31,500 --> 01:30:34,710
that's International, but I'm
sure it is in the United States.

1538
01:30:35,250 --> 01:30:37,800
And they were shut down in the
United States.

1539
01:30:37,830 --> 01:30:41,790
Well, so this just happened.
This just happened two days ago,

1540
01:30:42,330 --> 01:30:48,630
the Backpage shut down their
adult entertainment category.

1541
01:30:49,050 --> 01:30:53,460
And if you go there now, then
you click on any of the

1542
01:30:53,460 --> 01:30:56,820
categories of adult
entertainment, which is code for

1543
01:30:57,120 --> 01:31:00,960
hookers. pokers, it says
censored the government has

1544
01:31:01,260 --> 01:31:06,180
unconstitutionally censored this
content, and then has some

1545
01:31:06,180 --> 01:31:10,020
links, what happened? Find out,
use your social media to support

1546
01:31:10,020 --> 01:31:13,260
free speech, blah, blah, blah.
Okay. Now, the allegation, of

1547
01:31:13,260 --> 01:31:17,850
course, for a long time, which
started with Craigslist, is that

1548
01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:24,060
these advertisements, often are
used for human trafficking,

1549
01:31:24,390 --> 01:31:28,770
child prostitution, etc, which
I'm sure there's a level of that

1550
01:31:28,770 --> 01:31:35,010
no doubt about it. But they are
now being hauled in Backpage.

1551
01:31:35,010 --> 01:31:39,870
That is, and this is a
conversation between Senator

1552
01:31:39,900 --> 01:31:46,980
Portman who was questioning the
CEO of Backpage about their

1553
01:31:46,980 --> 01:31:53,400
practices, but what the the, the
reasoning they use to say, you

1554
01:31:53,400 --> 01:31:56,970
are bad, you are horrible be you
are breaking the law, which I

1555
01:31:56,970 --> 01:32:01,170
believe to be incorrect, is
quite interesting. And I think

1556
01:32:01,170 --> 01:32:04,950
very, very important for the
Internet and services on the

1557
01:32:04,950 --> 01:32:08,400
internet, in general. So to set
that up, we have the Digital

1558
01:32:08,400 --> 01:32:14,760
Millennium Millennium Millennium
Copyright Act. And what was the

1559
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:20,790
genius of this act? Is that it
said that if you are just a a

1560
01:32:20,790 --> 01:32:24,810
place where people post content,
you are not liable for what

1561
01:32:24,810 --> 01:32:27,660
happens or what is being said
the am I summing that up

1562
01:32:27,660 --> 01:32:28,170
correctly.

1563
01:32:29,310 --> 01:32:32,010
It's an element, the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act, it was

1564
01:32:32,010 --> 01:32:34,920
a lot bigger than that. It was a
lot. It was mostly about back

1565
01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:37,950
engineering and things, reverse
engineering things like

1566
01:32:37,950 --> 01:32:41,100
but this is the entire reason
that we can have Twitter that we

1567
01:32:41,100 --> 01:32:44,640
can have YouTube that we can all
these different things. That was

1568
01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:48,930
the entire reason because you're
not editorializing. You're not a

1569
01:32:48,930 --> 01:32:53,820
news is for Yahoo groups and
some of these others. So this is

1570
01:32:53,820 --> 01:32:56,340
an important now listen to what
he's saying.

1571
01:32:56,490 --> 01:32:59,700
Mr. Ferreira, your company has
repeatedly avoided liability by

1572
01:32:59,700 --> 01:33:04,110
invoking invoking section 230 of
the Communications Decency

1573
01:33:04,110 --> 01:33:07,830
Act Okay, shall we listen to
them just for a second? Section

1574
01:33:07,830 --> 01:33:13,410
230 of the Communications
Decency Act. And in this it says

1575
01:33:14,790 --> 01:33:19,170
no provider or user of an
interactive computer service

1576
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:22,920
shall be treated as the
publisher or speaker of any

1577
01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:26,730
information provided by another
information content provider.

1578
01:33:28,230 --> 01:33:30,150
So, in other words, in other
words, these are online

1579
01:33:30,180 --> 01:33:33,480
intermediaries. That was the
entire idea. Can

1580
01:33:33,690 --> 01:33:35,070
you read that again? Yeah, sure.

1581
01:33:36,750 --> 01:33:40,920
No provider or user of an
interactive computer service

1582
01:33:41,130 --> 01:33:44,220
shall be treated as the
publisher or speaker of any

1583
01:33:44,220 --> 01:33:49,710
information provided by another
information content provider. So

1584
01:33:49,710 --> 01:33:52,860
this means if I think it
actually also means if the if I

1585
01:33:52,860 --> 01:33:57,750
have an RSS feed and it posts
something that is defamatory

1586
01:33:57,750 --> 01:34:02,610
that I cannot be held liable,
because I am not. I'm not a

1587
01:34:02,610 --> 01:34:06,060
public, I would not treat it as
a publisher. If I'm if it's just

1588
01:34:06,090 --> 01:34:11,430
stuff people post in comments or
anything of the like. Okay. So

1589
01:34:11,430 --> 01:34:13,080
that's what that's what it says

1590
01:34:13,110 --> 01:34:16,290
Mr. Ferreira, your company has
repeatedly avoided liability by

1591
01:34:16,290 --> 01:34:20,850
invoking invoking section 230 of
the Communications Decency Act

1592
01:34:20,850 --> 01:34:25,140
that's been referenced a couple
of times this morning. This Act

1593
01:34:25,140 --> 01:34:28,680
protects websites who just post
content created by third

1594
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:33,540
parties. But a report issued
today and posted yesterday

1595
01:34:33,540 --> 01:34:37,200
afternoon demonstrates
conclusively that your reliance

1596
01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:40,710
on this Communications Decency
Act Section has not been

1597
01:34:40,710 --> 01:34:43,410
accurate. It's been a fraud,
frankly, on the courts on the

1598
01:34:43,410 --> 01:34:47,310
victims you sued, who sued you
and on the public. Why do I say

1599
01:34:47,310 --> 01:34:50,490
that? I say that because
Backpage took an active hand in

1600
01:34:50,490 --> 01:34:52,890
creating the ads on your site.
As I talked about my opening

1601
01:34:52,890 --> 01:34:55,410
statement, you systematically
deleted words, phrases and

1602
01:34:55,410 --> 01:34:59,430
images submitted by users that
reveal that the posted ad is for

1603
01:34:59,670 --> 01:35:03,330
any old legal transaction not
just prostitution but also child

1604
01:35:03,330 --> 01:35:06,780
sex trafficking documents show
that you called the practice

1605
01:35:07,110 --> 01:35:10,770
stripping out content from an ad
you even maintained an extensive

1606
01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:16,860
strip ad strip term from ADS
list of words that we talked

1607
01:35:16,860 --> 01:35:17,430
about earlier

1608
01:35:17,460 --> 01:35:21,990
I'm explain what he's talking
about on many sites when you and

1609
01:35:21,990 --> 01:35:25,200
chat rooms and all over the
internet I'll give you a good

1610
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:29,640
example. Airbnb does not want
you to communicate through

1611
01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:34,350
anything but the Airbnb system
when you reserve an Airbnb, so

1612
01:35:34,350 --> 01:35:37,920
if you type in your phone number
or email address, Airbnb strips

1613
01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:41,520
that out in the messaging
system, okay, that's what

1614
01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,040
they're talking about stripping
out things is basically saying,

1615
01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:48,240
okay, for some reason why?
Because it's a it's a Silicon

1616
01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:49,980
Valley thing, right. Okay, go.

1617
01:35:50,070 --> 01:35:52,350
Let's talk about one of the
words on that list. This is an

1618
01:35:52,350 --> 01:35:55,560
email you received from Mr.
pedia, explaining that he was

1619
01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:59,460
preparing a spreadsheet of and I
quote, the most current list of

1620
01:35:59,460 --> 01:36:02,580
coded terms set to be stripped
out in the document in front of

1621
01:36:02,580 --> 01:36:06,690
you. You've highlighted one of
the many words on that list. Can

1622
01:36:06,690 --> 01:36:08,820
you read that? Highlight it word
on that list?

1623
01:36:09,210 --> 01:36:11,790
Asshole after consultation?
Whoa, stop

1624
01:36:11,790 --> 01:36:15,630
in a second. Now, what I'm
getting from this so far is that

1625
01:36:15,630 --> 01:36:19,650
this guy, the senator, whoever
it is, I can't you mentioned

1626
01:36:19,650 --> 01:36:26,430
him. Yeah, Porter is grilling
this guy for doing this. Because

1627
01:36:26,430 --> 01:36:31,230
if he wasn't doing this, that
would give him the right to

1628
01:36:31,290 --> 01:36:35,520
publish oldest child. In other
words, he's encouraging child

1629
01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:39,600
trafficking. Yeah, the guy that
does Backpage but the senator

1630
01:36:39,630 --> 01:36:43,560
well, so the senator what the
Senator is trying to say. Is

1631
01:36:43,560 --> 01:36:47,340
that a current as a congressman,
now this is Senator. Okay. The

1632
01:36:47,340 --> 01:36:55,230
senator is trying to say, your
ads, advertise Child child

1633
01:36:55,530 --> 01:36:59,310
trafficking, human trafficking,
child sex, prostitution, etc.

1634
01:36:59,490 --> 01:37:03,570
And he's connecting that by
saying, you automatically strip

1635
01:37:03,570 --> 01:37:06,120
out words, which he's going to
say in a moment, you

1636
01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:08,700
automatically strip out words,
therefore you are

1637
01:37:08,700 --> 01:37:13,680
editorializing. Just keep
listening word on that list. So

1638
01:37:13,770 --> 01:37:17,880
it's really nice as could you
please read the first word on

1639
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:18,720
that list?

1640
01:37:18,840 --> 01:37:21,180
Can you read that highlighted
word on that list?

1641
01:37:22,110 --> 01:37:25,380
After consultation with counsel?
I declined to answer your

1642
01:37:25,380 --> 01:37:29,430
question. Based on the rights
provided by the First and Fifth

1643
01:37:29,430 --> 01:37:30,120
Amendments.

1644
01:37:30,360 --> 01:37:33,480
In that case, I'll read it the
word is Lolita. There are some

1645
01:37:33,480 --> 01:37:38,130
other words on that list.
Teenage rape, young, just so

1646
01:37:38,130 --> 01:37:41,100
everyone understands. This is a
document listing code words to

1647
01:37:41,100 --> 01:37:43,830
be stripped out of
advertisements. And the ads were

1648
01:37:43,830 --> 01:37:48,090
then posted on the internet on
Backpage. Anyway, consists of

1649
01:37:48,090 --> 01:37:50,700
what we talked about in the
opening statement. This was a

1650
01:37:50,700 --> 01:37:54,870
way to edit these ads, but still
take the payment and profit from

1651
01:37:54,870 --> 01:37:57,480
the ads. Next question. Mr.
Farrar if an underage girl is

1652
01:37:57,480 --> 01:38:00,270
being sold for sex on Backpage,
and her pimp puts the word

1653
01:38:00,270 --> 01:38:02,400
Lolita in the advertisement
stripping that term out of the

1654
01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:04,890
ad doesn't magically change the
girls age does it?

1655
01:38:05,099 --> 01:38:08,729
After consultation with counsel.
I declined to answer your

1656
01:38:08,729 --> 01:38:13,229
question based on the rights
provided by the First and Fifth

1657
01:38:13,229 --> 01:38:13,949
Amendments.

1658
01:38:14,309 --> 01:38:17,669
Okay, so he's very, and I liked
that. I've never heard the

1659
01:38:17,669 --> 01:38:20,309
taking the fifth by adding the
first I like that, that's pretty

1660
01:38:20,309 --> 01:38:25,859
cool. Now, here's the problem.
What the Senator is saying is

1661
01:38:25,859 --> 01:38:29,129
when you automatically by
computer system, strip out

1662
01:38:29,129 --> 01:38:32,519
certain words, which could be F
words, s words, all kinds of

1663
01:38:32,519 --> 01:38:35,579
things. This is done all over
the internet viewer than

1664
01:38:35,579 --> 01:38:39,089
editorializing because you then
still take money and place the

1665
01:38:39,089 --> 01:38:46,109
ad. In, you know, I think
Backpage is, you know, for them

1666
01:38:46,109 --> 01:38:50,009
to shut down their adult
services, you know, it's going

1667
01:38:50,009 --> 01:38:54,029
to hurt local commerce. I'm not
kidding. I think it's I think

1668
01:38:54,029 --> 01:38:57,149
it's much bigger than anybody
realizes. But the Senator is

1669
01:38:57,149 --> 01:38:59,999
incorrect. Specifically, there
are a number of court cases that

1670
01:38:59,999 --> 01:39:04,109
have gone through this, the
Fourth Circuit lawsuits seeking

1671
01:39:04,109 --> 01:39:08,369
to hold a service liable for its
exercise of a publishers

1672
01:39:08,369 --> 01:39:12,119
traditional editorial functions
such as deciding whether to

1673
01:39:12,119 --> 01:39:19,079
publish withdraw, postpone or
alter content are barred. The

1674
01:39:19,079 --> 01:39:21,959
purpose of the statutory
immunity is not difficult to

1675
01:39:21,959 --> 01:39:25,259
discern, Congress recognized the
threat that tort based lawsuits

1676
01:39:25,259 --> 01:39:27,539
posed to freedom of speech in
the new emerging internet

1677
01:39:27,539 --> 01:39:31,439
medium. Section 230 was enacted
in part two maintain the robust

1678
01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:33,509
nature of internet
communication. And there are

1679
01:39:33,509 --> 01:39:38,339
many lawsuits where this type of
editorializing is not seen as

1680
01:39:38,339 --> 01:39:41,249
editorializing. And therefore
you still have the safe harbor.

1681
01:39:41,459 --> 01:39:45,209
If this is successful, whatever
they're trying to do, I don't

1682
01:39:45,209 --> 01:39:47,579
know if there's an actual
lawsuit. If this is successful,

1683
01:39:48,389 --> 01:39:53,609
then I mean, how can you apply
that to adult services

1684
01:39:53,609 --> 01:39:56,849
advertisements, but not to
Facebook or Twitter or YouTube

1685
01:39:56,849 --> 01:39:58,139
or any of these systems?

1686
01:40:01,020 --> 01:40:02,010
You'd have to

1687
01:40:02,580 --> 01:40:05,370
exactly so that's why I find
this to be incredibly

1688
01:40:05,370 --> 01:40:06,930
interesting and very important.

1689
01:40:08,220 --> 01:40:21,630
I think it is. And there we had
that clip sucks. Especially, the

1690
01:40:21,630 --> 01:40:27,000
clip was fine. It was never
good.

1691
01:40:28,140 --> 01:40:30,690
I know I didn't have a kicker. I
should have had a hooker here.

1692
01:40:31,860 --> 01:40:32,580
Kicker. I'm

1693
01:40:32,580 --> 01:40:34,140
so dumb. I'm sorry. You
actually,

1694
01:40:34,440 --> 01:40:37,290
the kicker was in your little
exposition at the end, but I

1695
01:40:37,320 --> 01:40:40,320
didn't. I didn't. I didn't take
it as a kick. I

1696
01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:42,480
didn't kick it right. I kicked

1697
01:40:43,230 --> 01:40:44,190
it was this you missed the

1698
01:40:46,230 --> 01:40:48,960
Lucy pulled the ball from under
me.

1699
01:40:49,469 --> 01:40:52,499
Your play this little Iso I have
reptile wins.

1700
01:40:53,700 --> 01:40:58,110
We love the ISOs. Really? What
is that from?

1701
01:40:59,790 --> 01:41:03,120
Oh, it's from some stupid thing
that was watching and everyone's

1702
01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:05,100
similar that show it was one of
these things where they're

1703
01:41:05,100 --> 01:41:08,250
showing all these suppose it
reptiles in the media? Yeah. And

1704
01:41:08,250 --> 01:41:11,670
then they you know they'd show a
digital guy would go out of out

1705
01:41:11,670 --> 01:41:15,120
of whack because the
digitisation didn't work and

1706
01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:19,320
make it look like he was
changing. He was doing a what do

1707
01:41:19,320 --> 01:41:22,740
you call it but shape shifting.
And every time they didn't go

1708
01:41:22,740 --> 01:41:28,470
reptile? Reptile did they had at
the end? It was reptile when I

1709
01:41:28,470 --> 01:41:33,360
like that was I think referring
to Katy Perry. Ah, was supposed

1710
01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:37,860
to be able years ago. Go ahead.
Okay. Ask that question.

1711
01:41:37,860 --> 01:41:41,250
Whatever it was. No, go ahead,
please. I want to play this

1712
01:41:41,250 --> 01:41:44,370
little thing since we were
talking about this hearings. And

1713
01:41:44,370 --> 01:41:48,090
I just had to play this one.
This is there's two hearings

1714
01:41:48,090 --> 01:41:50,880
that were important. There was
the Tillerson and then there was

1715
01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:54,930
the Jeff Sessions and the Jeff
Sessions one which I have a

1716
01:41:54,930 --> 01:41:57,750
little clip of. They were
grilling him it was really

1717
01:41:57,750 --> 01:42:00,780
embarrassing. Cory Booker, this
is apparently the first time

1718
01:42:00,780 --> 01:42:01,500
they set

1719
01:42:02,220 --> 01:42:05,040
this back on one second. What is
happening here? Is there a

1720
01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:07,950
number of cabinet positions that
the United States president can

1721
01:42:07,950 --> 01:42:11,370
appoint, but they have to be
confirmed by the Senate? And

1722
01:42:11,370 --> 01:42:16,260
that includes state? Defense,
DHS,

1723
01:42:16,559 --> 01:42:18,059
all the cabinet jobs, actually.

1724
01:42:19,590 --> 01:42:25,170
Every single one, I get I guess,
Secretary Yeah, okay. Chuck

1725
01:42:25,170 --> 01:42:28,620
Schumer himself, the leader of
the Democrats, now the minority

1726
01:42:28,620 --> 01:42:32,430
speaker said, Oh, we're gonna
take our time. We're gonna make

1727
01:42:32,430 --> 01:42:35,760
it difficult. The

1728
01:42:35,910 --> 01:42:41,250
how's that? Good? Yeah. Anyway,
so Cory Booker went after Jeff

1729
01:42:41,250 --> 01:42:44,070
Sessions, who after Chris has a
lot of stuff on the internet

1730
01:42:44,070 --> 01:42:46,950
showing that they're great
buddies before, but apparently,

1731
01:42:46,980 --> 01:42:50,850
I think Booker was goaded into
this by the Black Caucus,

1732
01:42:51,510 --> 01:42:54,570
senators who seemed
uncomfortable. He seemed very

1733
01:42:54,570 --> 01:42:57,210
uncomfortable. And it was
embarrassing. I thought for him,

1734
01:42:57,210 --> 01:42:59,400
and he's supposed to be the
next, you know, the next Obama.

1735
01:42:59,730 --> 01:43:02,130
But he's not going to cut it
with pulling this stunt because

1736
01:43:02,130 --> 01:43:07,830
no senator has ever done this
before. Senators do not testify

1737
01:43:07,830 --> 01:43:10,740
against senators. It's a boys
club. It's not something we do

1738
01:43:10,740 --> 01:43:13,560
girls club. Yeah, whatever club
it is, it's like you don't do

1739
01:43:13,560 --> 01:43:16,530
this. So so this guy is going to
be snubbed for quite a while.

1740
01:43:16,650 --> 01:43:20,310
But the more interesting one was
Rubio, who was testifying

1741
01:43:20,310 --> 01:43:22,860
against Tillerson, which you can
do and Rubio

1742
01:43:23,820 --> 01:43:28,230
was like, all of a sudden, he's
gonna be the defender, like, Oh,

1743
01:43:28,230 --> 01:43:31,500
I'm gonna take care of this.
It'll all hang on me, Marco

1744
01:43:31,500 --> 01:43:33,300
Rubio. That's the feeling I got
from him.

1745
01:43:33,810 --> 01:43:36,120
Well, I get the feeling that he
for one thing he's definitely

1746
01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:40,200
not a no agenda listener because
he's all in with with the bull

1747
01:43:40,200 --> 01:43:44,550
crap memes and the nonsense
about it. Aleppo in particular

1748
01:43:44,550 --> 01:43:48,210
is bad. And let's play a little
bit. That is a compilation of

1749
01:43:48,240 --> 01:43:52,620
some of Rubio's kind of going
after this Tillerson character

1750
01:43:52,620 --> 01:43:54,330
in an anti Putin manner.

1751
01:43:55,140 --> 01:43:58,980
Is that the Rubio blasting
Putin? Yeah, okay.

1752
01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:00,630
It's Vladimir Putin, the war
criminal.

1753
01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:07,170
This question? Yeah, this was a
big conversation. Well, two guys

1754
01:44:07,170 --> 01:44:11,040
asked it. Yeah. It's Vladimir
Putin a war criminal? Is George

1755
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:11,370
Bush

1756
01:44:11,370 --> 01:44:12,240
use that term?

1757
01:44:12,450 --> 01:44:15,840
In Aleppo? Mr. Putin has
directed his military to conduct

1758
01:44:15,840 --> 01:44:18,900
a devastating campaign. He's
targeted schools market that's

1759
01:44:18,900 --> 01:44:22,500
resulted in the death of 1000s
of civilians. This is not the

1760
01:44:22,500 --> 01:44:25,230
first time Mr. Putin is involved
in campaigns of the SAR

1761
01:44:25,230 --> 01:44:26,100
guys that

1762
01:44:26,430 --> 01:44:30,030
are very, very serious charges
to make. And I would want to

1763
01:44:30,030 --> 01:44:32,730
have much more information
before reaching a conclusion.

1764
01:44:32,850 --> 01:44:37,110
This person that has videos and
the pictures, are

1765
01:44:37,110 --> 01:44:39,930
they only informed before
advising the president? Well,

1766
01:44:39,960 --> 01:44:43,380
are you aware that people who
oppose lameer Putin wind up dead

1767
01:44:43,380 --> 01:44:46,500
all over the world poisoned shot
in the back of the head? And

1768
01:44:46,530 --> 01:44:48,990
have you never seen the Clinton
body count?

1769
01:44:51,480 --> 01:44:53,190
Do you think that was
coincidental or do you think

1770
01:44:53,190 --> 01:44:56,190
that it is quite possible or
likely is I believe that they

1771
01:44:56,190 --> 01:44:58,950
were part of an effort to murder
this political opponents?

1772
01:44:59,490 --> 01:45:03,000
Well, People who speak up for
freedom in regimes that are

1773
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:07,980
repressive are often a threat.
And this and these things happen

1774
01:45:07,980 --> 01:45:12,450
to them. In terms of assigning
specific responsibilities, I

1775
01:45:12,450 --> 01:45:13,980
would have to have more
information.

1776
01:45:14,009 --> 01:45:16,319
None of this is classified. Mr.
Tillerson, these people are

1777
01:45:16,319 --> 01:45:16,709
dead.

1778
01:45:19,350 --> 01:45:21,300
They're dead. Marco.

1779
01:45:22,620 --> 01:45:26,460
I don't know what he's trying to
pull. But I thought it was

1780
01:45:26,490 --> 01:45:27,300
ludicrous.

1781
01:45:27,330 --> 01:45:31,620
I have a couple other clips from
the hearings. Okay, from the

1782
01:45:31,620 --> 01:45:34,140
confirmation hearings, I
thought, well, let's stay with

1783
01:45:34,140 --> 01:45:37,980
sessions for a moment. You know,
it's just a funny little bit

1784
01:45:37,980 --> 01:45:42,720
just to get an idea of the
humor. obsessions, of course,

1785
01:45:42,720 --> 01:45:48,960
he, he is being questioned for
confirmation for attorney

1786
01:45:48,960 --> 01:45:53,970
general. And he is asked a
question, and then he remembers

1787
01:45:53,970 --> 01:45:54,870
he's under oath.

1788
01:45:54,960 --> 01:45:57,630
But let me just ask you maybe
it's not a great analogy. But

1789
01:45:57,630 --> 01:46:00,570
let me try anyway. You've been
married to your wife, Mary,

1790
01:46:00,570 --> 01:46:05,700
almost 50 years, right? Well, it
hadn't gotten to 50. Yet. 4740.

1791
01:46:06,690 --> 01:46:10,950
Well, that's a good run. Let me
just ask you any content, other

1792
01:46:10,950 --> 01:46:15,150
than blasts? Are there occasions
when you and your wife disagree?

1793
01:46:15,360 --> 01:46:16,020
No.

1794
01:46:18,270 --> 01:46:20,850
This is like, it's such an
honest answer. You know, it's

1795
01:46:20,850 --> 01:46:25,470
like every guy No, no, no, none
of 47 years now.

1796
01:46:26,160 --> 01:46:30,840
occasions when you and your
dancer disagree. No, Senator.

1797
01:46:34,410 --> 01:46:35,040
White Man, I'm

1798
01:46:35,040 --> 01:46:37,350
under oath. On occasion we do.

1799
01:46:38,430 --> 01:46:41,400
What do you think it would be
fair to carry? Oh,

1800
01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:44,040
I'm under oath. Someone actually
yelled that in the background a

1801
01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:45,810
year. And I noticed. Yeah, it
was funny.

1802
01:46:48,180 --> 01:46:49,110
That was a funny bit.

1803
01:46:51,630 --> 01:46:55,140
Wait a minute. I'm under oath,
on occasion. And we do. Yes.

1804
01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:58,410
What do you think it would be
fair to characterize the nature

1805
01:46:58,410 --> 01:47:02,430
of your relationship with your
wife based upon those handful of

1806
01:47:02,670 --> 01:47:06,600
disagreements that you've had
with her over over time? As a

1807
01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:10,950
good point, thank you for making
it. No, I don't. Well, and to

1808
01:47:10,950 --> 01:47:14,130
your original point, your wife
is always great.

1809
01:47:15,900 --> 01:47:17,520
Yeah. Okay.

1810
01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:20,910
That was cute. was careless.
Cute. Good. Good catch.

1811
01:47:20,940 --> 01:47:24,540
Then we have now the nominee for
Department of Homeland Security

1812
01:47:24,780 --> 01:47:28,500
is General John Kelly don't know
a lot about him. But he was

1813
01:47:28,500 --> 01:47:32,310
asked I think it was McCain who
was grilling him asked about the

1814
01:47:32,340 --> 01:47:35,520
problem, which I think only one
person really highlighted. That

1815
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:40,590
was Donald Trump, which is our
opioid addiction. And he

1816
01:47:40,590 --> 01:47:44,160
mentioned this several times
throughout many states, that we

1817
01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:48,030
have a real problem with heroin,
but really opioid addiction. And

1818
01:47:48,030 --> 01:47:50,400
now, of course, you know, we got
McCain, like, oh, we have a

1819
01:47:50,400 --> 01:47:53,040
problem with opioid addiction.
Now sudden, it's top of the

1820
01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:57,240
list. And here's General John
Kelly nominee for Department of

1821
01:47:57,240 --> 01:48:03,090
Homeland Security, his feelings
on the public and narcotics of

1822
01:48:03,090 --> 01:48:04,140
the opioid variety.

1823
01:48:04,170 --> 01:48:08,400
Senator, I think I'd start off
by saying, it's amazing to me,

1824
01:48:08,400 --> 01:48:11,520
but I just found out very
recently that a an old friend

1825
01:48:13,380 --> 01:48:17,700
who's not so old, 62 years old,
just just after a very

1826
01:48:17,700 --> 01:48:22,440
successful life just overdosed
on heroin. And I think it to

1827
01:48:22,440 --> 01:48:25,920
your point, it's cheaper and
more available in many ways than

1828
01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:30,660
some of the opioids and she
could not apparently get a

1829
01:48:30,660 --> 01:48:32,340
prescription for what she
thought she needed. But the

1830
01:48:32,340 --> 01:48:36,870
point is that most Americans
don't realize it, but an awful

1831
01:48:36,870 --> 01:48:40,590
lot 100% of the heroin that we
consume in the United States is

1832
01:48:40,590 --> 01:48:43,830
in fact produced in Mexico. And
it's creeping down now into

1833
01:48:43,830 --> 01:48:47,550
Central America. They have
responded to cartels, the

1834
01:48:47,550 --> 01:48:52,410
networks have responded to the
demand. So instead of Asia and

1835
01:48:52,620 --> 01:48:55,590
South Asia, it now is all
produced here in the Western

1836
01:48:55,590 --> 01:49:00,510
Hemisphere. Poppies have grown
in countries as far south now as

1837
01:49:00,510 --> 01:49:02,820
Guatemala, a little bit in
Colombia, although they're

1838
01:49:02,820 --> 01:49:06,930
getting after it. But it is all
produced here, an awful lot of

1839
01:49:06,930 --> 01:49:10,560
the opioid see what looks like
pharmaceuticals are actually

1840
01:49:10,560 --> 01:49:14,850
produced again in Mexico, and
then paired it up here through

1841
01:49:15,210 --> 01:49:19,050
through the border. And of
course, part of the problem, I

1842
01:49:19,050 --> 01:49:21,780
think, and this is, I think,
would be outside my particular

1843
01:49:21,780 --> 01:49:24,840
area, if confirmed, but part of
the problem is we are a very

1844
01:49:24,870 --> 01:49:31,320
overly medicated society. Huge
amounts of opioids are

1845
01:49:31,710 --> 01:49:36,240
prescribed legally for things
that in the past would probably

1846
01:49:36,240 --> 01:49:39,120
not receive that level of
medication. So the point is

1847
01:49:39,180 --> 01:49:44,220
huge, huge problem getting
worse. And the profits are just

1848
01:49:44,250 --> 01:49:48,000
unbelievable to the cartels that
control the whole marketing and

1849
01:49:48,000 --> 01:49:48,630
transport.

1850
01:49:48,690 --> 01:49:51,630
Yeah. Which would be Big Pharma
is the cartel you're referring

1851
01:49:51,630 --> 01:49:55,170
to. I liked that. He's thinking
that way though. But we're over

1852
01:49:55,200 --> 01:50:02,130
there. We're over medicated.
He's right Interesting. Yeah.

1853
01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:07,770
Now for some reason, you know
that well done for some reason,

1854
01:50:07,770 --> 01:50:08,730
but the fear monitor,

1855
01:50:08,730 --> 01:50:11,190
I should mention somebody,
there's, for people out there,

1856
01:50:11,190 --> 01:50:15,600
there may be a addict or two in
our audience and it was the

1857
01:50:15,630 --> 01:50:20,040
reason that the guy like the 62
year old is a problem getting

1858
01:50:20,040 --> 01:50:21,960
off this stuff. Have you ever
get addicted? You probably

1859
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:26,760
should avoid it. But the problem
is that, especially with heroin,

1860
01:50:26,790 --> 01:50:30,060
you start using it and you build
up a tolerance, and you start

1861
01:50:30,060 --> 01:50:33,150
using more and more and more.
Yeah. And then so you get to

1862
01:50:33,150 --> 01:50:36,390
like, instead of using one get
you may get to peak heroin.

1863
01:50:37,050 --> 01:50:40,560
Yeah, yeah, peak heroin, say
you're 5x and then you get off

1864
01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:42,960
of it somehow. And then you
somehow want to go back. For

1865
01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:44,580
some reason you you're
depressed. I don't know what

1866
01:50:44,610 --> 01:50:48,510
causes people to backslide. But
apparently they do. They start

1867
01:50:48,510 --> 01:50:50,160
with their old dose that kills
them

1868
01:50:50,370 --> 01:50:53,820
right off the bat, because they
don't have the resistance. Yeah.

1869
01:50:54,600 --> 01:51:01,860
Well, it's very sad. Now, what
is? I'm a little I don't know if

1870
01:51:01,860 --> 01:51:07,110
I'm surprised or not. But so the
president elect Trump has said,

1871
01:51:07,110 --> 01:51:09,480
we're going to repeal and
replace Obamacare, the

1872
01:51:09,480 --> 01:51:11,670
Affordable Care Act, which we
know a lot about here on the

1873
01:51:11,670 --> 01:51:15,600
show. That's gonna be the first
order of business, and we're

1874
01:51:15,600 --> 01:51:19,410
going to sign the repeal, and
then we're going to within the

1875
01:51:19,410 --> 01:51:23,700
same hour, maybe sign the New
Deal. And from what I understand

1876
01:51:23,700 --> 01:51:26,250
the new did there have been
plans around for a long time?

1877
01:51:26,250 --> 01:51:29,190
There's a lot of different
plans. But every everywhere I

1878
01:51:29,190 --> 01:51:32,100
look everywhere, I tried to find
out what are the plans I hear,

1879
01:51:32,130 --> 01:51:38,010
they don't even have a plan?
Well, it turns out, they do have

1880
01:51:38,010 --> 01:51:42,330
a plan. And Rand Paul, Rand Paul
is the man with the plan.

1881
01:51:42,420 --> 01:51:45,090
Actually, I don't want to delay
the repeal. I'm all for the

1882
01:51:45,090 --> 01:51:47,790
repeal as soon as we can get to
it. But we should vote on

1883
01:51:47,790 --> 01:51:51,000
replacement the same day. And
I'm putting together a bill that

1884
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:54,570
will be out this week, that will
be a consensus replacement bill.

1885
01:51:54,870 --> 01:51:58,260
There are many bills, probably
50 Different Republican bills,

1886
01:51:58,350 --> 01:52:01,590
some of them that have been out
two and three decades for the

1887
01:52:01,590 --> 01:52:04,980
replacement part. What we want
to do in the replacement is

1888
01:52:05,160 --> 01:52:09,210
legalize the ability to buy
inexpensive insurance, get rid

1889
01:52:09,210 --> 01:52:12,540
of the Obamacare mandates, let
any insurance product we sold,

1890
01:52:12,690 --> 01:52:15,060
particularly inexpensive
insurance products, that's

1891
01:52:15,060 --> 01:52:20,220
number one, let people save tax
free, give them tax credits for

1892
01:52:20,220 --> 01:52:23,850
health savings accounts, so they
can buy insurance. And then the

1893
01:52:23,850 --> 01:52:26,880
third thing we want to do is let
individuals come together as

1894
01:52:26,880 --> 01:52:30,900
part of groups or associations.
So they can buy their insurance

1895
01:52:30,900 --> 01:52:34,590
as part of a big pool to have
leverage to get lower prices.

1896
01:52:34,680 --> 01:52:37,680
And also so they don't get
affected by adverse things like

1897
01:52:38,040 --> 01:52:41,760
pre existing conditions. And so
basically, we put together the

1898
01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:45,030
most popular, and I think there
is a consensus, I think it'll

1899
01:52:45,030 --> 01:52:48,120
pass overwhelmingly in the
house. The question in the

1900
01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:51,360
Senate is, Will Democrats be
willing to work with us to

1901
01:52:51,360 --> 01:52:52,530
replace Obamacare?

1902
01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:57,450
They won't? Oh, no, of course
they want but what do you think

1903
01:52:57,450 --> 01:52:59,580
of what do you think? What do
you think of the general plans?

1904
01:52:59,580 --> 01:53:02,820
The way I hear it, is they're
going to deregulate the

1905
01:53:02,820 --> 01:53:07,530
industry, which is arguably one
of the problems that you can't

1906
01:53:07,530 --> 01:53:09,420
sell across state lines and
there's all these

1907
01:53:10,290 --> 01:53:12,510
supplies to be able to sell
across state lines. Yeah, but

1908
01:53:12,510 --> 01:53:17,040
that's a temporary fix. I'm to
do and it was well, you know, I

1909
01:53:17,040 --> 01:53:21,540
like the idea of I think it's
too late to do anything other

1910
01:53:21,540 --> 01:53:26,250
than than a aggressive single
payer and that means Medicare

1911
01:53:26,310 --> 01:53:30,840
Medicare, not Medicaid. Big
difference Medicare for

1912
01:53:30,840 --> 01:53:34,800
everyone. Medicare's been in
place nobody bitches about it.

1913
01:53:34,800 --> 01:53:38,820
In fact, you'll lose votes if
you run on an anti Medicare

1914
01:53:38,910 --> 01:53:42,990
ticket you will not get anyone
over 65 will not vote for you

1915
01:53:42,990 --> 01:53:47,340
period because everyone over 65
Who uses Medicare likes it Yeah,

1916
01:53:47,550 --> 01:53:50,160
they all like it even though
it's a government program but

1917
01:53:50,160 --> 01:53:53,460
the but but there's no bitching
about it so if it's so good that

1918
01:53:53,460 --> 01:53:58,050
all these old farts like it why
don't you just extend it to

1919
01:53:58,050 --> 01:54:01,110
everybody? That's what doesn't
make sense to me where they they

1920
01:54:01,110 --> 01:54:03,450
are what's what that brings it
up at all the Republicans and

1921
01:54:03,450 --> 01:54:07,050
all the guys all the Republicans
and Democrats are on the pockets

1922
01:54:07,050 --> 01:54:11,040
of the pharmaceutical companies.
Oh no, we can't do that. We

1923
01:54:11,040 --> 01:54:13,440
can't do that we have to do this
we have to do something else.

1924
01:54:13,590 --> 01:54:17,910
Because the whole thing is based
on a complete scam relating to

1925
01:54:17,910 --> 01:54:20,670
the pharmaceutical companies I
need to write this up so it's

1926
01:54:20,670 --> 01:54:23,970
more clear but that's all it's
about. That's our reason all

1927
01:54:23,970 --> 01:54:26,970
these prices have skyrocketed
because the pharmaceutical

1928
01:54:26,970 --> 01:54:29,040
companies figure well we got the
we can just

1929
01:54:30,450 --> 01:54:35,070
do not discount the the two
companies that own all the

1930
01:54:35,070 --> 01:54:37,140
hospitals I mean, they're also
the completely out of

1931
01:54:37,349 --> 01:54:40,019
another issue, which is a
problem. And then the other

1932
01:54:40,019 --> 01:54:42,269
thing is because of the because
this is all going through

1933
01:54:42,269 --> 01:54:45,389
insurance companies and not the
government. The dot you talk to

1934
01:54:45,389 --> 01:54:50,159
any doctor who's sensible who do
handles all these insurance, you

1935
01:54:50,159 --> 01:54:54,689
know, networks is it whereas if
isn't a network, they spend all

1936
01:54:54,689 --> 01:54:57,569
their time on the phone. They
have full time people arguing

1937
01:54:57,569 --> 01:55:01,109
with everything they prescribe
every Anything they recommend if

1938
01:55:01,109 --> 01:55:04,169
it involves a prescription and
they have to fight it and fight

1939
01:55:04,169 --> 01:55:06,359
it and fight it and then they're
always they always give us in at

1940
01:55:06,359 --> 01:55:09,479
the end. My doctor just bitches
about this incessantly.

1941
01:55:10,470 --> 01:55:15,540
I be the single payer is a big
dispute. A lot of people don't

1942
01:55:15,540 --> 01:55:20,280
do not like that idea at all at
all at all. I definitely don't

1943
01:55:20,310 --> 01:55:22,530
I don't want to say been
brainwashed not to like the

1944
01:55:22,560 --> 01:55:26,130
I've lived in single payer, and
I didn't like it. That's me.

1945
01:55:26,490 --> 01:55:29,430
That's my experience. That's not
brainwashing I lived it. It

1946
01:55:29,430 --> 01:55:30,090
sucks.

1947
01:55:30,600 --> 01:55:33,240
Yeah, you couldn't do anything
private, you couldn't do your

1948
01:55:33,240 --> 01:55:37,080
own thing on the side? Well,
yes, of course I could. Well,

1949
01:55:37,080 --> 01:55:37,980
then what's wrong with that?

1950
01:55:39,990 --> 01:55:43,800
Because I just saw that it
doesn't work for people who

1951
01:55:43,800 --> 01:55:44,910
can't afford private.

1952
01:55:46,140 --> 01:55:49,830
So So what you're saying is that
because, first of all, the

1953
01:55:49,830 --> 01:55:51,990
French system works quite well.
And people like it.

1954
01:55:51,990 --> 01:55:54,750
I'm not familiar with the French
system. I've only lived in UK

1955
01:55:54,750 --> 01:55:56,100
and the Netherlands and both of

1956
01:55:56,100 --> 01:55:59,700
those about the Canadian system,
which is i which is

1957
01:55:59,700 --> 01:56:02,580
why all the Canadians come here
for their operations. Please

1958
01:56:02,610 --> 01:56:06,210
don't okay with this, what's
wrong with that? Nothing. But

1959
01:56:06,210 --> 01:56:08,430
it's but they're running away
from their system.

1960
01:56:09,330 --> 01:56:11,880
Then for certain things, because
they're using because there's a

1961
01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:16,050
waiting lists because the system
is abused. You know, most people

1962
01:56:16,050 --> 01:56:19,140
has been Canada, the United
States everywhere except France.

1963
01:56:19,140 --> 01:56:22,530
I think Switzerland, Germany,
maybe. Yeah, they got these

1964
01:56:22,530 --> 01:56:25,110
crappy systems, because they
just abused the poor as what

1965
01:56:25,110 --> 01:56:28,320
happens in the DHS, they're all
they do is he would listen to

1966
01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:32,190
the British Parliament. And this
is all this complaining about

1967
01:56:32,190 --> 01:56:35,640
for our weight. And so they're
moaning and groaning constantly,

1968
01:56:35,640 --> 01:56:39,360
because they hate their they
hate the commoners. If you hate

1969
01:56:39,360 --> 01:56:42,270
your public, and you treat them
like crap, which is what the

1970
01:56:42,270 --> 01:56:45,810
British seem to do with their
DHS, yeah, it's gonna be a

1971
01:56:45,810 --> 01:56:50,280
crappy system. But you turn it
around. And the particular

1972
01:56:50,280 --> 01:56:52,620
system we had, most people
didn't have an end to any sort

1973
01:56:52,620 --> 01:56:55,410
of insurance at all. So it had
to have to go into the day you

1974
01:56:55,410 --> 01:56:57,660
have to wait for are you want a
four hour? Wait, yeah, you go to

1975
01:56:57,660 --> 01:57:00,390
the emergency room, you wait six
hours, you wait eight hours,

1976
01:57:00,390 --> 01:57:04,050
what's the emergency room?
That's acceptable. None of this

1977
01:57:04,080 --> 01:57:11,070
is well, well done. single payer
system that wasn't rife with

1978
01:57:11,070 --> 01:57:15,300
corruption and hatred for the
poor would work fine. It can be

1979
01:57:15,300 --> 01:57:21,810
done. And the example is,
France. I brought up this

1980
01:57:21,810 --> 01:57:24,450
example with a guy like you. And
he says

1981
01:57:25,320 --> 01:57:27,360
incredibly handsome, intelligent
dude.

1982
01:57:27,509 --> 01:57:31,559
Exactly. He was but he was. He
says, Well, France is a

1983
01:57:31,559 --> 01:57:32,309
different story.

1984
01:57:32,519 --> 01:57:35,969
I don't I can't speak about
France In France, not what seems

1985
01:57:35,969 --> 01:57:38,009
to happen in general. So that's
the

1986
01:57:38,670 --> 01:57:42,000
people move from England to
France for their long term long

1987
01:57:42,210 --> 01:57:43,740
term health care.

1988
01:57:43,950 --> 01:57:47,310
Yes. Because the NHS Associate
exam. Yes. Because they hate the

1989
01:57:47,310 --> 01:57:51,690
commoners. Okay, so hatred of
the poor. All right. Well, I'll

1990
01:57:51,690 --> 01:57:54,690
give you this. I don't I don't
do not agree, I would love to

1991
01:57:54,690 --> 01:57:58,860
see it outside of single payer
first. But I will give you this,

1992
01:57:59,190 --> 01:58:01,680
the single payer would, of
course, require incredible

1993
01:58:01,680 --> 01:58:05,100
negotiations with the insurance
companies. But as you point out,

1994
01:58:05,640 --> 01:58:09,690
the pharmaceuticals and the
entire healthcare industry, and

1995
01:58:09,690 --> 01:58:12,690
there would have to be
negotiations to get the prices

1996
01:58:12,690 --> 01:58:18,720
down significantly. And I think
Trump would be the guy to do

1997
01:58:18,720 --> 01:58:21,210
that. But I don't know if that's
the plan. I don't think that is

1998
01:58:21,210 --> 01:58:22,200
gonna go in that direction.

1999
01:58:22,230 --> 01:58:24,630
Well, Trump has thought about
single payer, he used to be a

2000
01:58:24,630 --> 01:58:28,080
single payer advocate. But he's
not going to do it, because the

2001
01:58:28,080 --> 01:58:30,960
Republicans aren't going to go
for it. Right. As far as they're

2002
01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:33,960
concerned, these pharmaceutical
companies can rip off the public

2003
01:58:33,960 --> 01:58:38,070
and nobody cares. Now, whatever
hearing Oh, it's free to free

2004
01:58:38,070 --> 01:58:39,000
enterprise. So

2005
01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:41,490
they will have but they will
have to pay Medicare will have

2006
01:58:41,490 --> 01:58:44,820
to pay the doctors more. Because
they a lot of doctors don't take

2007
01:58:44,820 --> 01:58:48,000
Medicare patients hatred of the
poor, maybe, but also because it

2008
01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:50,700
really doesn't cover their cost.
So that'll have to go up.

2009
01:58:51,780 --> 01:58:56,100
You can you can do a hybrid
system that I think would work

2010
01:58:56,100 --> 01:59:02,400
fine. Okay. But we'll see. It's
doable. They're not going to do

2011
01:59:02,400 --> 01:59:06,060
it. I just mentioned this is
just that people, most people on

2012
01:59:06,060 --> 01:59:10,410
Medicare, like it, and they'll
vote against you if you if you

2013
01:59:10,410 --> 01:59:14,310
go against it. So why is why is
that? Why do they like it so

2014
01:59:14,310 --> 01:59:16,950
much. And that's a socialized
medicine system that is single

2015
01:59:16,950 --> 01:59:19,860
payer? I'm thinking you're this
country. I'm thinking you have

2016
01:59:19,860 --> 01:59:24,180
Medicare. It's single payer in
this country. Yes. Why do they

2017
01:59:24,180 --> 01:59:25,080
like it so much?

2018
01:59:25,320 --> 01:59:26,730
Do you have it? Do you like it?

2019
01:59:27,360 --> 01:59:30,150
not that old? Me neither? Oh,
what's my official age? I

2020
01:59:30,150 --> 01:59:35,430
can't 64 here's some good news,
though. On that on the health

2021
01:59:35,430 --> 01:59:35,880
front.

2022
01:59:37,350 --> 01:59:42,270
Trump has named Robert Kennedy
as the lead on the panel on

2023
01:59:42,270 --> 01:59:46,800
vaccine safety. I like that,
yeah, get the crazy crackpots in

2024
01:59:46,800 --> 01:59:47,100
there.

2025
01:59:47,430 --> 01:59:52,080
Well, they got the crazy they
got an anti global warming head

2026
01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:57,090
of the EPA. Yeah. They have an
anti Vaxxer that's the head of

2027
01:59:57,090 --> 01:59:58,770
the Health and Human Services.
Gotta

2028
01:59:58,770 --> 02:00:00,690
love it. I mean, if

2029
02:00:00,690 --> 02:00:06,540
we hadn't I live as a protester
who was during Tillerson who I

2030
02:00:06,540 --> 02:00:08,730
liked by the way, I love
listening to him again. I wasn't

2031
02:00:08,730 --> 02:00:10,590
watching him just listening. He
reminds

2032
02:00:10,590 --> 02:00:16,590
me Tillerson reminds me of
Jonathan Winters. That's a

2033
02:00:16,590 --> 02:00:17,430
winter 2000

2034
02:00:17,430 --> 02:00:18,570
year old man. Is that it?

2035
02:00:18,989 --> 02:00:22,979
No, Jonathan Winters was a very
famous stand up comic that.

2036
02:00:23,399 --> 02:00:26,699
Didn't he do the bit the 2000
year old man? No, no, that's Mel

2037
02:00:26,699 --> 02:00:27,239
Brooks and

2038
02:00:27,240 --> 02:00:27,930
bar. All right.

2039
02:00:27,960 --> 02:00:28,680
I'm sorry. Okay.

2040
02:00:29,189 --> 02:00:32,639
So Jonathan Winters did these
characters and one of the

2041
02:00:32,639 --> 02:00:36,629
characters that he did was was
Tillerson is exactly, Tillerson.

2042
02:00:36,629 --> 02:00:41,939
Yeah. Anyway, only the older
members of the audience will get

2043
02:00:41,939 --> 02:00:42,869
the reference. So tiller.

2044
02:00:43,650 --> 02:00:47,280
So Tillerson is testifying or
answering questions, and then a

2045
02:00:47,280 --> 02:00:53,070
protest, like don't give the
State Department to Exxon. And

2046
02:00:53,070 --> 02:00:56,040
I'm thinking to myself, are you
kidding me? Just State

2047
02:00:56,040 --> 02:00:59,910
Department has been working on
Exxon's behalf for decades,

2048
02:01:00,000 --> 02:01:04,470
forever. Yes, it's their
extraction unit. Maybe Maybe

2049
02:01:04,470 --> 02:01:08,700
naive our people and maybe we'll
have better deals with without

2050
02:01:08,700 --> 02:01:12,180
killing people if we do it their
way. I don't know. It's just the

2051
02:01:12,180 --> 02:01:17,190
thought. However, in the United
States of Gitmo, nation, Europe,

2052
02:01:17,610 --> 02:01:21,750
things are not good. Things are
not good at all. There's a lot

2053
02:01:21,750 --> 02:01:27,180
of problems, particularly with
the the entire concept of the

2054
02:01:27,180 --> 02:01:29,970
European Union, which is,
amongst other things, which was

2055
02:01:29,970 --> 02:01:33,660
sold to people as freedom of
movement. Yes, we're back to

2056
02:01:33,660 --> 02:01:36,480
talking about Schengen. It's in
danger.

2057
02:01:36,540 --> 02:01:39,660
Officials from Denmark, Sweden
and Germany have been as

2058
02:01:39,660 --> 02:01:43,290
emergency talks in Brussels amid
mounting concerns over new

2059
02:01:43,290 --> 02:01:47,250
border controls. It comes after
Sweden introduced ID checks on

2060
02:01:47,250 --> 02:01:51,090
all people traveling to Denmark
and Denmark tighten controls on

2061
02:01:51,090 --> 02:01:54,510
its frontier with Germany. It's
down to double blow to the

2062
02:01:54,510 --> 02:01:55,500
Schengen area.

2063
02:01:55,530 --> 02:02:01,380
We all agreed that the Schengen
and free movement must be

2064
02:02:01,410 --> 02:02:05,520
safeguarded both for citizens
and economy.

2065
02:02:05,910 --> 02:02:10,740
Sweden soak in more than 160,000
migrants last year, many of them

2066
02:02:10,740 --> 02:02:14,790
having traveled through Denmark
is the largest number for any EU

2067
02:02:14,790 --> 02:02:18,120
country in relation to its
population and has put a huge

2068
02:02:18,120 --> 02:02:21,990
strain on services. That's why
the government decided to impose

2069
02:02:22,020 --> 02:02:23,250
stricter controls.

2070
02:02:23,400 --> 02:02:26,550
Now we of course, know that
Denmark are the happiest people

2071
02:02:26,550 --> 02:02:27,030
on Earth.

2072
02:02:28,890 --> 02:02:31,170
So they are going through
Denmark, which isn't really

2073
02:02:31,170 --> 02:02:35,250
attached to Sweden, but you can
take that trip new train. Yes.

2074
02:02:36,060 --> 02:02:39,330
Into Malmo. Yeah, that's funny.
Yeah.

2075
02:02:40,350 --> 02:02:43,530
So Denmark, happiest people on
Earth. Also the most medicated

2076
02:02:43,530 --> 02:02:46,080
people on Earth, but you might
want to just keep that secret.

2077
02:02:46,950 --> 02:02:50,190
They're also a little tired of
the migrants, the fun loving

2078
02:02:50,190 --> 02:02:53,670
Danes who have everything
perfect education, health care.

2079
02:02:53,700 --> 02:02:54,840
Oh and have some migrants

2080
02:02:54,870 --> 02:02:58,140
Denmark has agreed to back
controversial changes to its

2081
02:02:58,140 --> 02:03:01,950
immigration laws. Among the
proposals is a new measure to

2082
02:03:01,950 --> 02:03:06,030
take away refugees possessions
worth around one and a half 1000

2083
02:03:06,030 --> 02:03:10,200
euros to pay for their stay.
Last week, the Danish Prime

2084
02:03:10,200 --> 02:03:14,520
Minister made around refugees
could keep would be raised from

2085
02:03:14,520 --> 02:03:18,990
the 400 euros initially
suggested a backlash over the

2086
02:03:18,990 --> 02:03:22,320
rise in asylum seekers in
Denmark has put the minority

2087
02:03:22,320 --> 02:03:26,280
center right government under
pressure. It has just 34 seats

2088
02:03:26,280 --> 02:03:29,820
out of 179 in Parliament, and
depends on the support of

2089
02:03:29,820 --> 02:03:33,300
parties to the right of center,
including the anti immigrant

2090
02:03:33,300 --> 02:03:34,710
Danish People's Party.

2091
02:03:34,830 --> 02:03:40,710
Oh yeah, come here with your
money. That is so funny that you

2092
02:03:40,710 --> 02:03:42,990
can come in here but you need to
give us some money

2093
02:03:43,830 --> 02:03:50,670
go over floating around Europe.
Let's listen to question time by

2094
02:03:50,670 --> 02:03:53,760
us. We love the Prime Minister
and I have two clips here and

2095
02:03:53,760 --> 02:03:56,730
one of them is very interesting.
The first one is question time.

2096
02:03:56,730 --> 02:04:01,380
This is the Scots one of the
Scots. The Scots are always in

2097
02:04:01,380 --> 02:04:04,440
Parliament bitching about stuff
and here's the Scots complaint.

2098
02:04:05,760 --> 02:04:09,270
It has been over six months
since European referendum

2099
02:04:10,140 --> 02:04:12,870
embarrassingly for the Prime
Minister, the Scottish

2100
02:04:12,870 --> 02:04:15,720
government is the only
administration on his island

2101
02:04:15,720 --> 02:04:21,270
self published the plan on what
to do next. Is the Prime

2102
02:04:21,270 --> 02:04:28,050
Minister read it yet? I said
Prime Minister read it yet. And

2103
02:04:28,050 --> 02:04:29,640
when we should be publishing our
own plan.

2104
02:04:32,400 --> 02:04:34,860
Come on join the honourable
gentleman in wishing everybody

2105
02:04:34,890 --> 02:04:37,410
in the house not only members
but all the staff of the house a

2106
02:04:37,410 --> 02:04:41,790
very happy new year. And can I
say to him that I've as I said

2107
02:04:41,790 --> 02:04:44,250
to the liaison committee when I
appeared in front of them before

2108
02:04:44,430 --> 02:04:48,240
Christmas. I will in a few weeks
in a matter of weeks be setting

2109
02:04:48,240 --> 02:04:51,360
out some more details of our
proposals on this issue. But I

2110
02:04:51,360 --> 02:04:54,900
would like just to remind the
honourable gentleman when he

2111
02:04:54,900 --> 02:04:57,360
talks about the Scottish
Government's plan that of course

2112
02:04:57,510 --> 02:05:00,480
it is his party, the Scottish
nationalist party. wants to

2113
02:05:00,480 --> 02:05:03,060
leave the United Kingdom and
therefore leave the European

2114
02:05:03,060 --> 02:05:03,480
Union.

2115
02:05:06,180 --> 02:05:10,380
Zinger there's nothing like
parliament, you just say, Hey,

2116
02:05:10,410 --> 02:05:16,410
let me talk about this. I got
something on my mind. I'm really

2117
02:05:16,410 --> 02:05:17,190
pissed off about

2118
02:05:19,439 --> 02:05:23,609
it. The head of the Scott, the
Scots is Angus Robertson, I

2119
02:05:23,609 --> 02:05:25,679
always get a kick out of him.
And he's always got the most

2120
02:05:25,709 --> 02:05:29,009
nasty things. And then he brings
up a point, which I think was

2121
02:05:29,009 --> 02:05:32,789
completely obscured in American
media for a number of reasons.

2122
02:05:33,119 --> 02:05:35,699
But let's listen to his
question. And this is Angus

2123
02:05:35,939 --> 02:05:39,119
bitching about a situation
that's evolved in Northern

2124
02:05:39,119 --> 02:05:40,619
Ireland because Robertson

2125
02:05:40,800 --> 02:05:43,890
Speaker, the Prime Minister has
indicated that she wants to take

2126
02:05:43,890 --> 02:05:47,640
the views of the elected
representatives and the devolved

2127
02:05:47,670 --> 02:05:51,720
institutions on Brexit,
seriously. So it stands to

2128
02:05:51,720 --> 02:05:55,380
reason then that if there is no
Northern Irish assembly, and

2129
02:05:55,380 --> 02:05:58,350
there is no Northern Irish
executive for much of the time,

2130
02:05:58,620 --> 02:06:02,400
before the March timetable that
she has set before invoking

2131
02:06:02,640 --> 02:06:07,020
Article 50, that she'll be
unable to properly consult, to

2132
02:06:07,020 --> 02:06:10,740
fully discuss and to find
agreement on the complex issues

2133
02:06:10,860 --> 02:06:15,660
during this time period. In
these circumstances, will the

2134
02:06:15,660 --> 02:06:23,220
Prime Minister postpone invoking
Article 50? Will she persona

2135
02:06:23,880 --> 02:06:25,080
article 50?

2136
02:06:26,130 --> 02:06:29,520
Or will she just plow on
regardless?

2137
02:06:32,550 --> 02:06:35,610
It's about ensuring as he as he
says, We want to ensure that we

2138
02:06:35,610 --> 02:06:38,640
do here that views from all
parts of the United Kingdom

2139
02:06:38,640 --> 02:06:44,040
that's why we have established
the JMC European committees

2140
02:06:44,040 --> 02:06:47,520
specifically to take the views
and the JMC plenary, which is

2141
02:06:47,520 --> 02:06:51,120
also obviously meeting more
frequently than previously. And

2142
02:06:51,120 --> 02:06:53,730
I'm clear that first of all, we
want to try to ensure that

2143
02:06:53,730 --> 02:06:56,340
within this period of seven
days, we can find a resolution

2144
02:06:56,580 --> 02:06:59,640
to the political situation in
Northern Ireland, so that we can

2145
02:06:59,670 --> 02:07:04,590
continue to see the assembly
government continuing. But I'm

2146
02:07:04,620 --> 02:07:07,350
also clear that in the
discussions that we have, it

2147
02:07:07,350 --> 02:07:09,990
will be possible. I mean, it is
still the case that actually

2148
02:07:09,990 --> 02:07:14,490
ministers are in place. And that
obviously there are executives

2149
02:07:14,490 --> 02:07:16,410
in place that we are still able
to take the views of the

2150
02:07:16,410 --> 02:07:17,460
Northern Ireland people.

2151
02:07:19,080 --> 02:07:21,780
Alright, so explain to me
exactly what's going on the way

2152
02:07:21,780 --> 02:07:25,980
I lost the way we left it. I
thought we were going to find

2153
02:07:25,980 --> 02:07:29,700
out from the courts if
Parliament had to have a say in

2154
02:07:29,700 --> 02:07:32,670
the triggering of article 50.
What exactly that we learned.

2155
02:07:32,760 --> 02:07:34,770
Now this is no this is a
completely different

2156
02:07:34,770 --> 02:07:38,340
complication. The Irish
government, which has not been

2157
02:07:38,340 --> 02:07:40,530
reported by any of the news
media here, for some unknown

2158
02:07:40,530 --> 02:07:46,470
reason, collapsed. There's no
Irish government. No northern

2159
02:07:46,620 --> 02:07:49,680
cabinet fell out Northern
Ireland had done a shared power

2160
02:07:49,680 --> 02:07:51,900
thing. So they would have their
own little parliament with a

2161
02:07:51,900 --> 02:07:57,000
first deputy minister, and then
the first minister and a deputy

2162
02:07:57,000 --> 02:08:01,590
minister. Everyone's quit. Ah,
they bailed out because of this

2163
02:08:01,620 --> 02:08:06,150
ash for cash scandal, which I
think is the reason that they've

2164
02:08:06,150 --> 02:08:08,610
nobody wants to talk about this
because this was an

2165
02:08:08,610 --> 02:08:13,860
environmental idea called ash
for cash part of something

2166
02:08:13,860 --> 02:08:19,110
called RHI, which was the reuse
a reusable heating initiative, I

2167
02:08:19,110 --> 02:08:19,350
believe,

2168
02:08:19,380 --> 02:08:25,440
are we back to the Backpage
story you say as forecasts. Ash

2169
02:08:26,070 --> 02:08:27,990
lash for cash? Gotcha, gotcha.

2170
02:08:28,470 --> 02:08:32,130
It turned out that the greenies
the the, you know, the global

2171
02:08:32,130 --> 02:08:37,020
warmists in Ireland 2012 set up
the system to get people to stop

2172
02:08:37,020 --> 02:08:41,220
using coal, horrible coal. And
so they came up with this

2173
02:08:41,220 --> 02:08:45,480
incentive plan. Oh, it's a
global warming thing. Yeah. Oh,

2174
02:08:45,480 --> 02:08:48,870
God. And so they came up with
this incentive plan to get

2175
02:08:48,870 --> 02:08:51,180
people to use pelletized wood.

2176
02:08:52,650 --> 02:08:56,070
Hey, that's really good, though.
pelletize when you can use to

2177
02:08:56,100 --> 02:08:56,970
run your car.

2178
02:08:57,839 --> 02:09:01,379
Yeah, I guess. Yeah. And I don't
know how you do it, but I guess

2179
02:09:01,379 --> 02:09:04,349
it's possible. Now this would
kill I first have a bitch about

2180
02:09:04,349 --> 02:09:06,959
these would cause Horowitz
bought one of these things and

2181
02:09:06,959 --> 02:09:10,469
it kind of bugs me. I was
shocked by it. Because I've seen

2182
02:09:10,469 --> 02:09:13,769
these these are barbecues that
use this pelletized wood you can

2183
02:09:13,769 --> 02:09:16,079
buy at Costco has and once in a
while some guys will come in

2184
02:09:16,079 --> 02:09:19,289
there and their sellers
pelletized wood barbecue thing.

2185
02:09:19,289 --> 02:09:22,469
Why would you just like buy some
charcoal or some real wood.

2186
02:09:22,619 --> 02:09:26,099
Throw it in there. Now I want
these pellets. Now pellets are

2187
02:09:26,099 --> 02:09:28,469
in the Pacific Northwest. I'm
very familiar with this because

2188
02:09:28,469 --> 02:09:31,889
there's a bunch of furnaces and
other items you can buy that use

2189
02:09:31,889 --> 02:09:36,299
these pellets. You buy a sack of
these pellets. They're pretty

2190
02:09:36,299 --> 02:09:40,169
cheap. And it's like some sort
of little pieces of wood that

2191
02:09:40,169 --> 02:09:41,189
have been turned in.

2192
02:09:41,969 --> 02:09:44,339
Are they green? Are they
friendly for the environment?

2193
02:09:44,339 --> 02:09:45,269
Are they recycled?

2194
02:09:45,420 --> 02:09:48,480
Well, they're supposed to burn
at a better efficiency so

2195
02:09:48,480 --> 02:09:52,020
they're much better for the
environment. And but I see them

2196
02:09:52,020 --> 02:09:55,800
as like they're like miniature
little miniature those news logs

2197
02:09:55,800 --> 02:09:57,510
you can buy and burn in the
fireplace.

2198
02:09:57,540 --> 02:10:01,290
I bought a couple of those for
Tina she is a fireplace at her

2199
02:10:01,290 --> 02:10:06,300
apartment. Yeah. And I, this was
Christmas and the only place

2200
02:10:06,300 --> 02:10:09,120
that I could buy anything was
Whole Foods. And I go in and I

2201
02:10:09,120 --> 02:10:12,570
get some logs. They're made for
very expensive. They're made

2202
02:10:12,570 --> 02:10:17,700
from recycled coffee grounds. I
know.

2203
02:10:19,260 --> 02:10:23,250
And one of the things Presto
Luxus. As an aside, presto logs

2204
02:10:23,280 --> 02:10:26,310
I was when I was working as an
inspector of the Chevron

2205
02:10:26,310 --> 02:10:29,670
refinery. There's different
layers, I think I've told the

2206
02:10:29,670 --> 02:10:32,460
story in the show before there's
different layers of you know,

2207
02:10:32,460 --> 02:10:35,820
you get your aromatics will come
off the distillation tank,

2208
02:10:35,820 --> 02:10:38,700
there's all these distillation
tower. There's all these

2209
02:10:38,700 --> 02:10:42,000
different products that come off
of that process that goes on in

2210
02:10:42,000 --> 02:10:45,360
the refineries, all these
different processes. And when

2211
02:10:45,360 --> 02:10:47,880
you're done and through with
when you pretty much gotten

2212
02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:51,930
everything you could out of a
gallon of oil. There's this

2213
02:10:51,930 --> 02:10:52,440
goop.

2214
02:10:52,650 --> 02:10:54,870
Ah, that famous golf

2215
02:10:54,870 --> 02:10:58,620
bottoms. And bottoms is this
like, there's nothing they can

2216
02:10:58,620 --> 02:11:01,320
do with it. But ah, no, there is
something they can do with it is

2217
02:11:01,320 --> 02:11:06,390
horrible goo. They use it to
make these Presto logs. That's

2218
02:11:06,390 --> 02:11:08,430
what sticks. First, you get a
bunch of sawdust, and you

2219
02:11:08,430 --> 02:11:11,700
dropped his goo in there, which
is probably the most unhealthy

2220
02:11:11,700 --> 02:11:14,700
stuff to breed. It's got all the
heavy metals, everything about

2221
02:11:14,700 --> 02:11:17,940
it is got to be bad. And but
that's what these Prestel lugs

2222
02:11:17,940 --> 02:11:21,360
are made from which you saw dust
and mixed with this crap. So

2223
02:11:21,360 --> 02:11:24,270
this is and I'm always thinking
that these wood pellets have an

2224
02:11:24,300 --> 02:11:26,220
element of that because if you
look at these little wood

2225
02:11:26,220 --> 02:11:29,040
pellets or like little miniature
Presto logs, they're very small,

2226
02:11:29,220 --> 02:11:33,000
little pieces. And but to get
like a shine to them, which

2227
02:11:33,000 --> 02:11:35,190
makes which What the What's the
shine from it's got to be a

2228
02:11:35,190 --> 02:11:35,670
chemical.

2229
02:11:35,820 --> 02:11:38,700
So and we were against this
because it's it's dumb.

2230
02:11:39,690 --> 02:11:43,440
I think it's dumb. Yeah. So
anyway, so the Irish decided

2231
02:11:43,440 --> 02:11:46,710
this one deputy ministers are
the ministers, she's decided

2232
02:11:46,710 --> 02:11:49,890
that we're going to have this
this program. And it turns out

2233
02:11:49,890 --> 02:11:53,940
that incentives were such that
the that was only for farmers

2234
02:11:53,940 --> 02:11:57,450
and industry. And they
determined as whistleblowers

2235
02:11:57,450 --> 02:11:59,370
came in, nobody paid any
attention. I'm saying these

2236
02:11:59,370 --> 02:12:03,060
farmers are using this to heat
their barns or barns are now

2237
02:12:03,060 --> 02:12:06,480
being heated, which is stupid on
a farm. But they, it turns out,

2238
02:12:06,480 --> 02:12:09,720
the more that they use more
pellets they use, the more money

2239
02:12:09,720 --> 02:12:14,070
they can make on these rebates.
For every every dollar they

2240
02:12:14,070 --> 02:12:19,140
spent on these pellets, they get
a buck 60 back. Ah, so this

2241
02:12:19,140 --> 02:12:22,410
became this huge scandal in
Ireland that has brought down

2242
02:12:22,410 --> 02:12:23,190
the government.

2243
02:12:23,430 --> 02:12:27,000
Oh, I didn't know this at all.
This is very interesting.

2244
02:12:27,210 --> 02:12:29,700
And so the government, there's
no government there now and the

2245
02:12:29,700 --> 02:12:32,010
British don't know what to do
because they have to be involved

2246
02:12:32,010 --> 02:12:35,580
in the Brexit and all the risks.
Of course, they can't just do so

2247
02:12:35,580 --> 02:12:38,070
they're going to have a kind of
a quick election to try to put

2248
02:12:38,070 --> 02:12:41,160
some people in but this could
take months. And but the whole

2249
02:12:41,160 --> 02:12:44,850
thing is because of that some do
gooder. Oh, global warming, that

2250
02:12:44,850 --> 02:12:48,300
burning coal, we can have that
as don't burn coal, this burn

2251
02:12:48,300 --> 02:12:51,600
these pellets, which obviously
some pellet makers making tons

2252
02:12:51,600 --> 02:12:55,530
of money. And it's just a
fiasco, none of its being

2253
02:12:55,530 --> 02:12:57,600
covered. And I think the reason
has not been covered because

2254
02:12:57,600 --> 02:13:01,620
it's another example of you
know, the do gooders that are

2255
02:13:02,040 --> 02:13:03,330
screwing up the world.

2256
02:13:04,320 --> 02:13:08,790
story of our lives. do gooders,
hey, I want to I want to get us

2257
02:13:08,790 --> 02:13:14,700
into the donation segment, but I
got a clip, which, in context of

2258
02:13:14,700 --> 02:13:21,270
our value for value, which we
started about six, seven years,

2259
02:13:21,270 --> 02:13:26,580
about seven, eight years. No,
but five years after five or

2260
02:13:26,580 --> 02:13:30,030
six, seven years after this
statement was made, and you

2261
02:13:30,030 --> 02:13:33,300
know, our concept of how the
internet should work and how

2262
02:13:33,300 --> 02:13:37,560
media will work and in this
case, it's relating more to the

2263
02:13:37,560 --> 02:13:40,650
music business, but I think
you'll enjoy this and and for

2264
02:13:40,650 --> 02:13:42,450
this I want to go can you get in
the Time Machine?

2265
02:13:43,950 --> 02:13:45,780
Yeah, hang on. There we go.

2266
02:13:48,330 --> 02:13:55,470
9099 Welcome. Hey, John. Hey,
man. Hey, dude. 99 is still

2267
02:13:55,470 --> 02:14:00,450
alive is beautiful. You know
else is alive. A David Bowie. A

2268
02:14:00,450 --> 02:14:03,690
David Bowie is from the future.
And we listen to him now from

2269
02:14:03,690 --> 02:14:06,000
1999 The internet

2270
02:14:06,030 --> 02:14:11,010
is now carries the flag of being
subversive and possibly

2271
02:14:11,010 --> 02:14:15,480
rebellious and chaotic,
nihilistic and oh, yes, it is.

2272
02:14:15,480 --> 02:14:17,490
Isn't it? Forget about the
microbes. By

2273
02:14:17,490 --> 02:14:21,210
the way, he's talking with
Jeremy Paxman who is like what

2274
02:14:21,210 --> 02:14:24,810
is this internet thing is 1999.
So you remember like, what is

2275
02:14:24,810 --> 02:14:25,620
the Internet is a

2276
02:14:25,890 --> 02:14:26,640
calendar,

2277
02:14:27,120 --> 02:14:32,040
Microsoft element. The
monopolies do not have a

2278
02:14:32,040 --> 02:14:34,560
monopoly. Maybe on programs,

2279
02:14:34,590 --> 02:14:37,920
what do you like about the fact
do what you like about it is the

2280
02:14:37,920 --> 02:14:41,490
fact that anyone can say
anything, or do any,

2281
02:14:41,700 --> 02:14:44,910
from my study from where I am
because of the by virtue of the

2282
02:14:44,910 --> 02:14:51,240
fact that I am a pop singer and
writer. I really, I really like

2283
02:14:51,270 --> 02:14:55,260
I embrace the idea that there's
a new demystification process

2284
02:14:55,260 --> 02:14:57,810
going on between the artist and
the audience. Because the

2285
02:14:57,810 --> 02:15:01,050
vocabulary of rock is too well
known is is a currency that is

2286
02:15:01,050 --> 02:15:04,740
not. It's not devoid of meaning
anymore, but is certainly only a

2287
02:15:04,740 --> 02:15:09,210
conveyor of information. It's
not a conveyor of rebellion. And

2288
02:15:09,210 --> 02:15:13,800
the Internet has taken on that,
as I say. And so I find that a

2289
02:15:13,800 --> 02:15:17,670
terribly exciting area. So from
my standpoint, being an artist,

2290
02:15:17,940 --> 02:15:22,140
I like to see what the new
construction is between artists

2291
02:15:22,140 --> 02:15:25,920
and audience. There is a
breakdown. There's personified,

2292
02:15:25,920 --> 02:15:29,190
I think, by the rave culture the
last few years, where the

2293
02:15:29,190 --> 02:15:32,820
audience is at least as
important as whoever is playing

2294
02:15:32,880 --> 02:15:37,740
at the road. It's almost like
the artist is to accompany the

2295
02:15:37,740 --> 02:15:40,710
audience and what the audience
is doing. And that feeling is

2296
02:15:40,710 --> 02:15:44,460
very much permeating music and
permeating the internet. But

2297
02:15:44,460 --> 02:15:44,730
what

2298
02:15:44,730 --> 02:15:47,700
is it specifically about the
internet? Anybody can say

2299
02:15:47,700 --> 02:15:52,230
anything? And it all adds up to
what I mean, it seems to me,

2300
02:15:52,410 --> 02:15:55,800
there's no, there's nothing
cohesive about it in the way

2301
02:15:55,800 --> 02:15:57,330
that there was something
cohesive about the

2302
02:15:57,930 --> 02:16:02,100
youth. I love how this guy is
thinking like, what an old

2303
02:16:02,100 --> 02:16:05,910
fashioned douchebag. But this is
what the dilution in music.

2304
02:16:05,940 --> 02:16:09,810
Oh, absolutely. And because I
think that we, at the time, up

2305
02:16:09,810 --> 02:16:13,170
until at least the mid 70s,
really felt that we were still

2306
02:16:13,170 --> 02:16:19,980
living under the, in the guise
of a single an absolute,

2307
02:16:20,880 --> 02:16:25,080
creative society where there
were known truths and known

2308
02:16:25,080 --> 02:16:29,910
lies. And there was no kind of
duplicity, or pluralism, about

2309
02:16:29,910 --> 02:16:32,790
the things that we believed him
that started to break down

2310
02:16:32,790 --> 02:16:37,350
rapidly in the 70s. And the idea
of duality in the way that we

2311
02:16:37,350 --> 02:16:43,320
live in, there are always 2345
sides to every question that the

2312
02:16:43,320 --> 02:16:47,580
singularity disappeared. And
that I believe, has produced

2313
02:16:47,760 --> 02:16:52,290
such a medium as the internet,
which absolutely establishes and

2314
02:16:52,860 --> 02:16:57,120
shows us that we are living in
total fragmentation. I don't

2315
02:16:57,120 --> 02:17:00,210
think we've even seen the tip of
the iceberg. I think the

2316
02:17:00,210 --> 02:17:04,890
potential of what the internet
is going to do to society, both

2317
02:17:04,890 --> 02:17:10,410
good and bad, is unimaginable. I
think we're actually on the cusp

2318
02:17:10,410 --> 02:17:13,770
of something exhilarating and
terrifying.

2319
02:17:14,430 --> 02:17:15,960
It's just a tool, though, isn't
it?

2320
02:17:16,440 --> 02:17:20,010
It's not. Now it's an alien life
form,

2321
02:17:20,310 --> 02:17:23,400
that it is simply a different
delivery system. And yeah,

2322
02:17:23,430 --> 02:17:24,900
you're arguing about something
more profound.

2323
02:17:24,929 --> 02:17:27,329
Oh, yeah, I'm talking about
that. There's the actual

2324
02:17:27,329 --> 02:17:31,199
context. And the state of
content is going to be so

2325
02:17:31,409 --> 02:17:33,569
different to anything that we
can really envisage at the

2326
02:17:33,569 --> 02:17:36,779
moment where the interplay
between the user and the

2327
02:17:36,779 --> 02:17:41,279
provider will be so in simpatico
it's going to it's going to

2328
02:17:41,309 --> 02:17:47,429
crush our ideas of what mediums
are all about. Yeah, yes.

2329
02:17:47,639 --> 02:17:50,459
You know, where he got all those
thoughts right. From the grave.

2330
02:17:51,149 --> 02:17:52,139
Check TV.

2331
02:17:52,529 --> 02:17:54,389
Oh, really? Yeah,

2332
02:17:54,389 --> 02:17:56,459
he's a bit when he was in
Britain. He has a place in or a

2333
02:17:56,459 --> 02:18:01,289
did have a place in Bermuda. And
Tech TV was available there. And

2334
02:18:01,289 --> 02:18:04,679
he watched it his religious
watch your vault material,

2335
02:18:04,710 --> 02:18:06,690
what does it mean? simpatico
mean?

2336
02:18:08,190 --> 02:18:10,650
It means the same as simpatico I
think

2337
02:18:11,730 --> 02:18:14,190
Well, the reason well first of
all, let's go back to let's go

2338
02:18:14,190 --> 02:18:19,890
back happened to get back yes
and get back. I hate time

2339
02:18:19,890 --> 02:18:24,180
travel. Oh god, it makes me
hurts makes me nauseous. He was

2340
02:18:24,180 --> 02:18:28,080
so spot on though, that and you
can hear the legacy media,

2341
02:18:28,080 --> 02:18:31,230
mainstream media, the old guy
going it's just a tool. It's

2342
02:18:31,230 --> 02:18:33,720
just a different delivery
mechanism. We we saw this like

2343
02:18:33,720 --> 02:18:36,330
that. We saw this with K ball.
It's like, what's the big deal?

2344
02:18:36,510 --> 02:18:41,790
And now you when you hear this?
It makes so much sense to me. I

2345
02:18:41,790 --> 02:18:48,030
would say I'm not quite sure if
the universe gave us these ideas

2346
02:18:48,030 --> 02:18:52,110
or overtime, but I think we've
been riding the crest of the

2347
02:18:52,110 --> 02:18:57,240
wave with our value for value
profit proposition. And and I

2348
02:18:57,240 --> 02:19:00,120
think Bo is absolutely right.
And the people who do not

2349
02:19:00,420 --> 02:19:03,960
innovate music, business,
television, news, business,

2350
02:19:03,990 --> 02:19:08,250
printed news business. You don't
innovate, you're gonna die. It's

2351
02:19:08,250 --> 02:19:10,770
just it's slow motion. And
they're all thinking it's just

2352
02:19:10,770 --> 02:19:12,480
another delivery mechanism.

2353
02:19:14,340 --> 02:19:18,210
Yeah, well, I can see where you
come from. Well, you could think

2354
02:19:18,210 --> 02:19:21,120
that right is a delivery
mechanism.

2355
02:19:21,180 --> 02:19:25,320
It is a delivery mechanism. But
the wood bowl he said, and of

2356
02:19:25,320 --> 02:19:28,440
course vo He is God what you
take when you know what is

2357
02:19:28,440 --> 02:19:31,860
happening between the audience's
and the what do you call them?

2358
02:19:31,860 --> 02:19:36,450
The the artists are produced. I
mean, this is why our supporters

2359

see. First one Oh, yeah, this
was nice. This was from Scott.

2419
02:24:33,810 --> 02:24:37,950
He is a dude named Ben. A few
shows back you and John were

2420
02:24:37,950 --> 02:24:42,210

a pen?

2423
02:24:48,150 --> 02:24:52,920
Yes, I got a Waterman pen. My
paper made me to a very nice no

2424
02:24:52,920 --> 02:24:55,950
this This was news to me that
paper mate was owned by Waterman

2425
02:24:56,340 --> 02:25:01,650
no other way around. Oh yeah. So
I appreciate that. Yeah, I like

2426
02:25:01,650 --> 02:25:04,710
that pen. But you know, these
pens. I was trying to get it,

2427

The dude named Ben gets gets one

2430
02:25:12,930 --> 02:25:16,350

discount. So pay pay for it.

2431
02:25:16,380 --> 02:25:21,690

2446
02:26:09,120 --> 02:26:11,940
already aware, there's a tip for
people. Yes, two years ago, we

This is Mickey. So we'll give
him the for that stock tip.

2457
02:26:41,070 --> 02:26:44,190
Yes, that's a great stock to
have handy, but even more

2458
02:26:44,190 --> 02:26:46,470
important, can we get some of
the hydroponics?

02:26:47,760 --> 02:26:53,100
Well, maybe if you're gonna grow
it yourself. Yeah, maybe. Yeah.

by the Israel. It's in the

2510
02:30:17,399 --> 02:30:22,289
Mediterranean. And it is Jordan
claims a little bit of it. And,

2511
02:30:23,009 --> 02:30:26,609
of course, we've had Nobel
energy who owns the contract,

2512
02:30:26,999 --> 02:30:31,319
which was expertly negotiated by
their consultant, William

2513
02:30:31,319 --> 02:30:35,939
Jefferson Clinton. So everyone's
all in and this thing is

2514
02:30:35,939 --> 02:30:39,389
starting to ramp up. Now, it's
been a couple of years. And the

2515
02:30:39,389 --> 02:30:44,189
idea of almost any gas play, is
to get the gas to the number one

2516
02:30:44,189 --> 02:30:48,569
customer in the world, which is
Europe. And while we're doing

2517
02:30:48,569 --> 02:30:54,179
that, try and cut off all of
Russia's about, say, pipelines,

2518
02:30:54,299 --> 02:31:00,569
make sure whatever you do, F
Russia take our gas. Now we like

2519
02:31:00,629 --> 02:31:02,999
it's Well, it's true. So now

2520
02:31:03,240 --> 02:31:06,150
they want but the price is
better with the Russian stuff.

2521
02:31:06,630 --> 02:31:07,200
Yes.

2522
02:31:07,560 --> 02:31:13,080
Now the problem is that the
pipelines will be partially

2523
02:31:13,080 --> 02:31:18,960
underwater. And Noble Energy has
always planned to get this into

2524
02:31:18,960 --> 02:31:23,550
Europe through Cyprus, through
Cyprus, and then off into

2525
02:31:23,550 --> 02:31:28,200
Greece, and then we can go off
into into other parts of the EU.

2526
02:31:28,980 --> 02:31:32,760
Cyprus is in play right now.
very underreported

2527
02:31:32,790 --> 02:31:35,970
talks in Geneva on the
reunification of Cyprus have

2528
02:31:35,970 --> 02:31:41,160
reached a crucial point, Greece
has suggested Turkey has a 28.2%

2529
02:31:41,160 --> 02:31:44,460
share of the island. While the
Turkish delegation is pushing

2530
02:31:44,460 --> 02:31:49,530
for 29.2%, the UN envoy to
Cyprus said there was still work

2531
02:31:49,530 --> 02:31:52,680
to do. But I did that
discussions to resolve the 42

2532
02:31:52,680 --> 02:31:56,190
year division are on track and
many contentious issues have

2533
02:31:56,190 --> 02:31:59,640
been resolved. The aim of the
talks is to establish a two

2534
02:31:59,640 --> 02:32:04,170
state federation with both sides
sharing power. The Greek Turkish

2535
02:32:04,200 --> 02:32:07,770
and British foreign ministers
are expected to join discussions

2536
02:32:07,770 --> 02:32:11,400
in the Swiss city on Thursday
talks between the two sides on

2537
02:32:11,400 --> 02:32:14,430
the internal issue of politics
finished tonight with the

2538
02:32:14,430 --> 02:32:17,940
exchange of marks for the first
time in over a decade.

2539
02:32:18,150 --> 02:32:22,470
Now this is a big deal. I don't
know about reunification, I

2540
02:32:22,470 --> 02:32:26,490
could not find out exactly why
that one extra percent makes a

2541
02:32:26,490 --> 02:32:30,210
difference for Turkey. But I can
bet it has something to do with

2542
02:32:30,210 --> 02:32:34,620
not allowing a pipeline to come
through or some other maybe to

2543
02:32:34,620 --> 02:32:37,410
have it come through go to
Turkey. I mean, Turkey is the

2544
02:32:37,410 --> 02:32:41,190
number one partner right now
with Russia. For all of the new

2545
02:32:41,190 --> 02:32:44,460
pipelines that are going to be
going into Europe. This is in

2546
02:32:44,460 --> 02:32:48,090
play. And there's what 30,000
Turkish troops already in

2547
02:32:48,120 --> 02:32:50,850
Cyprus, we could see a civil war
breakout.

2548
02:32:53,640 --> 02:32:57,000
Well, there's been borderline
civil war breaking out in Cyprus

2549
02:32:57,000 --> 02:32:59,130
for decades, yes,

2550
02:32:59,130 --> 02:33:04,500
but now it's about real money
about the gas pipelines. I think

2551
02:33:04,500 --> 02:33:08,130
we're going to see a lot of
crazy crap coming down.

2552
02:33:08,730 --> 02:33:10,410
We'll let the shooting commence.

2553
02:33:11,130 --> 02:33:14,070
We'll be on top of it for you. I
put in the show notes, a number

2554
02:33:14,070 --> 02:33:18,570
of images, you can find it under
the Cypress heading. And it

2555
02:33:18,570 --> 02:33:22,530
shows how these pipelines will
run at fascinating stuff to see

2556
02:33:22,530 --> 02:33:26,430
how this is playing out. And the
Brits Of course, I'm not

2557
02:33:26,430 --> 02:33:29,610
involved are involved not just
for any reason. They have

2558
02:33:29,640 --> 02:33:35,850
interest in in oil and gas. But
Turkey with going from 28.9 to

2559
02:33:35,880 --> 02:33:39,210
29.9. There's something about
that, that I haven't figured

2560
02:33:39,210 --> 02:33:42,180
out. Maybe one of our listeners
or producers will have an idea

2561
02:33:42,180 --> 02:33:46,140
about it. But I see trouble
ahead for Cyprus. Remember when

2562
02:33:46,140 --> 02:33:49,440
they met when they they locked
down all the banks? Russian

2563
02:33:49,440 --> 02:33:50,160
Russian money, they

2564
02:33:50,160 --> 02:33:51,780
stole the money. Yeah,

2565
02:33:51,810 --> 02:33:52,770
with a bail in.

2566
02:33:54,180 --> 02:33:57,810
Yeah, that's an old trick could
happen anywhere. It's an oldie

2567
02:33:57,810 --> 02:34:01,530
but a goodie. So while you're
discussing Russia, I might as

2568
02:34:01,530 --> 02:34:04,440
well do this because it brings
up a kind of a theme of our

2569
02:34:04,440 --> 02:34:09,660
show. This is Chris Matthews.
And this is a clip as a Chris

2570
02:34:09,660 --> 02:34:13,590
Matthews and with Chris Coons
was one of the Democrat

2571
02:34:13,590 --> 02:34:19,440
senators. And Matthews kind of
asked the question. You'll see

2572
02:34:19,440 --> 02:34:22,710
here it but the question about
Russia because he's kind of

2573
02:34:22,710 --> 02:34:25,530
befuddled himself. Like I think
most of the public is

2574
02:34:25,560 --> 02:34:27,750
over the goods for the neocon
certainly both of those

2575
02:34:27,750 --> 02:34:32,100
gentlemen, why is Russia such a
focus of our foreign policy

2576
02:34:32,100 --> 02:34:35,430
right now? Why is it almost the
exclusive domain of debate?

2577
02:34:35,730 --> 02:34:36,780
What's it about Russia?

2578
02:34:37,620 --> 02:34:41,100
Because they carried out a cyber
attack on our election, because

2579
02:34:41,100 --> 02:34:43,560
they've been carrying out
aggression against Ukraine and

2580
02:34:43,560 --> 02:34:46,470
threatening our NATO allies in
Europe, undermining our Western

2581
02:34:46,470 --> 02:34:50,760
European allies and have engaged
in I think also war crimes in

2582
02:34:50,760 --> 02:34:54,330
Syria. So it's a fairly
assertive aggressive Russia

2583
02:34:54,420 --> 02:34:55,320
under Vladimir Putin.

2584
02:34:55,440 --> 02:34:59,010
Well, Trump clearly sides with
Tillerson and against you. He

2585
02:34:59,010 --> 02:35:02,400
thinks there's a hope For some
kind of alliance with Putin,

2586
02:35:02,400 --> 02:35:02,970
what do you think?

2587
02:35:03,839 --> 02:35:06,059
And alliances I think would be
overstating it what Mr.

2588
02:35:06,059 --> 02:35:08,969
Tillerson said today, and I
would agree with this point was

2589
02:35:08,969 --> 02:35:12,149
that Russia is our adversary.
But there are certain areas

2590
02:35:12,149 --> 02:35:15,449
where we could be partners,
nuclear Non Proliferation, and

2591
02:35:15,449 --> 02:35:19,679
fighting against terrorism,
working to improve some of our

2592
02:35:19,829 --> 02:35:23,099
relations with the rest of the
world. I think we were going to

2593
02:35:23,099 --> 02:35:26,339
face a very difficult menu for
President elect Trump. He's got

2594
02:35:26,339 --> 02:35:30,359
problems from North Korea, to
the South China Sea from global

2595
02:35:30,359 --> 02:35:33,929
warming to the real challenges
containing Iran. And I don't

2596
02:35:33,929 --> 02:35:36,119
think there's going to be a lot
of bandwidth for them

2597
02:35:36,540 --> 02:35:39,690
to focus. Well, last question,
we were able to get along with

2598
02:35:39,690 --> 02:35:42,600
Stalin in World War Two, he
basically carried the load of

2599
02:35:42,600 --> 02:35:45,540
the war on the Eastern Front and
fighting the Nazis. We were able

2600
02:35:45,540 --> 02:35:47,970
to get along with Khrushchev on
the Limited Test Ban Treaty with

2601
02:35:47,970 --> 02:35:51,030
nuclear weapons testing. But
Kennedy, were able to get along

2602
02:35:51,030 --> 02:35:53,880
with Brezhnev in terms of salt
and the rest of it. Should we

2603
02:35:53,880 --> 02:35:57,090
always be trying to get along
with the Russians? To some

2604
02:35:57,090 --> 02:35:57,630
extent,

2605
02:35:58,289 --> 02:36:00,749
of course, Chris, it is possible
that we could reach some

2606
02:36:00,749 --> 02:36:03,539
agreements that would make our
world more safe, and would

2607
02:36:03,539 --> 02:36:07,169
reduce conflict, but that cannot
include turning a blind eye to

2608
02:36:07,169 --> 02:36:10,049
their annexation of Crimea, or
their crimes in Syria. Okay,

2609
02:36:10,050 --> 02:36:12,120
thank you so much. Chris Coons
on the Foreign Relations

2610
02:36:12,120 --> 02:36:12,390
Committee.

2611
02:36:14,100 --> 02:36:15,120
What do you leave out?

2612
02:36:16,710 --> 02:36:17,550
What do you leave out?

2613
02:36:18,150 --> 02:36:19,230
snowed in?

2614
02:36:19,980 --> 02:36:24,180
I see, I'm afraid to say it. I'm
not. I'm not saying

2615
02:36:24,180 --> 02:36:27,690
authority. This whole thing
started in 2013. This hatred of

2616
02:36:27,690 --> 02:36:31,320
Russia and making Russia the bad
guy. And that started in 2013.

2617
02:36:31,320 --> 02:36:34,950
When Snowden they refused to
give up Snowden because we have

2618
02:36:34,950 --> 02:36:38,790
no extradition treaty with the
Russians, probably for a lot of

2619
02:36:38,790 --> 02:36:42,690
reasons. But if we don't have
the extradition treaty, we can't

2620
02:36:42,690 --> 02:36:45,960
demand somebody to be
extradited. Right. Why don't we

2621
02:36:45,960 --> 02:36:49,590
just stop beating around the
bush and say, okay, Snowden is

2622
02:36:49,590 --> 02:36:53,370
very stuck there. And that's
that we don't have to, like turn

2623
02:36:53,370 --> 02:36:56,970
this into this never ending
battle with all this bull crap.

2624
02:36:57,000 --> 02:37:00,720
Right. And that his laundry
list, there was all bull crap.

2625
02:37:01,230 --> 02:37:03,900
Oh, this and that. I mean,
nobody likes to mention that

2626
02:37:03,900 --> 02:37:06,360
Newland, and the Americans are
the ones that caused that

2627
02:37:06,360 --> 02:37:13,380
problem in the Ukraine resulted.
Yeah. Maybe ever gets met never

2628
02:37:13,380 --> 02:37:13,620
gets.

2629
02:37:13,770 --> 02:37:22,680
Let's just Let's remind
everybody we remember.

2630
02:37:23,519 --> 02:37:25,799
Yes, we do. You remember
episode.

2631
02:37:26,550 --> 02:37:30,240
I caught a bit from Judge
Napolitano as speaking of

2632
02:37:30,240 --> 02:37:36,060
pardons. And this is regarding
the FBI, Clinton email records

2633
02:37:36,060 --> 02:37:39,330
released they did was that
Friday before Christmas as well,

2634
02:37:39,330 --> 02:37:42,030
I think it was I don't remember.
Yeah. They had another Yeah, it

2635
02:37:42,030 --> 02:37:44,790
was a lot of the there was a lot
of releases. Well, it's

2636
02:37:44,790 --> 02:37:45,780
explained here.

2637
02:37:45,810 --> 02:37:50,220
300 pages of documents released
by we don't know who within the

2638
02:37:50,220 --> 02:37:53,880
FBI which had possession of
them, right, turning them over

2639
02:37:53,880 --> 02:37:58,650
to to the public to see. And
they suggest clearly that there

2640
02:37:58,650 --> 02:38:02,970
are a lot of misunderstandings
about what was held by Mrs.

2641
02:38:02,970 --> 02:38:07,560
Clinton, what was communicated
by her and to her of a highly

2642
02:38:07,560 --> 02:38:08,490
sensitive nature.

2643
02:38:08,580 --> 02:38:14,790
The highly sensitive nature was
301 pages of emails, which Mrs.

2644
02:38:14,790 --> 02:38:18,540
Clinton sent on a regular basis
to a non government person. We

2645
02:38:18,540 --> 02:38:20,670
have reason to believe that that
was Sid Blumenthal, with whom

2646
02:38:20,670 --> 02:38:24,300
she emailed on a on a daily and
regular basis several times a

2647
02:38:24,300 --> 02:38:29,850
day. But what we now know what
Donald Trump feared and argued

2648
02:38:29,850 --> 02:38:33,840
during the campaign, and what
rogue FBI agents who profoundly

2649
02:38:33,840 --> 02:38:36,360
disagreed with Director Comey.
His decision to recommend

2650
02:38:36,360 --> 02:38:40,020
against indictment was true that
the information Mrs. Clinton

2651
02:38:40,020 --> 02:38:45,780
regularly sent to her emailer
was hacked by foreign

2652
02:38:45,780 --> 02:38:49,650
intelligence agencies of
countries unfriendly to us and

2653
02:38:49,650 --> 02:38:54,210
friendly to us. And Sources tell
Fox News. Those were Russia,

2654
02:38:54,420 --> 02:38:59,400
China, unfriendly, Israel
friendly, this is the smoking

2655
02:38:59,400 --> 02:39:03,120
gun, if ever there was one this
it ramps up the case for her

2656
02:39:03,120 --> 02:39:07,650
prosecution, to the point where
ironically, it may also ramp up

2657
02:39:07,650 --> 02:39:11,340
the case for President Obama to
Aisha her pardon, and to take

2658
02:39:11,340 --> 02:39:15,300
this off of Donald Trump and
Jeff Sessions desks. But if he

2659
02:39:15,300 --> 02:39:19,950
doesn't do that, the pressure on
the Attorney General from the

2660
02:39:19,950 --> 02:39:23,310
FBI agents who conducted the
investigation, who probably

2661
02:39:23,310 --> 02:39:26,430
posted this stuff last night
during the Giants Packers game

2662
02:39:26,490 --> 02:39:28,590
will be very difficult for him
to resist.

2663
02:39:28,980 --> 02:39:33,720
And I'm thinking Obama is going
to let it ride. I bet he loves

2664
02:39:33,720 --> 02:39:36,180
that. Yeah, he'll you know, now
I'm not going to pardon you.

2665
02:39:36,570 --> 02:39:37,770
Enjoy session. Well,

2666
02:39:37,770 --> 02:39:42,510
you know, this is this is a very
interesting pickle. Yeah.

2667
02:39:43,500 --> 02:39:50,070
Because yeah, they could pardon
her and there's a way of parting

2668
02:39:50,070 --> 02:39:54,750
her for stuff that she's going
to be indicted for later.

2669
02:39:54,780 --> 02:39:56,970
There's there's something called
a special kind of a pardon.

2670
02:39:57,000 --> 02:39:59,520
Yeah, we know you're a criminal
and they're gonna party in

2671
02:39:59,520 --> 02:40:04,320
advance. He won't do that in a
million years. So they'd have to

2672
02:40:04,320 --> 02:40:08,640
indict her before, which means
in the next week, because the 20

2673
02:40:08,640 --> 02:40:12,390
of this coming up as next Friday
is right. Yes. So he has to

2674
02:40:12,390 --> 02:40:16,350
pardon her before Friday of next
week. I just don't see it

2675
02:40:16,350 --> 02:40:18,360
happening. And I think that's
why everyone's Well, we're not

2676
02:40:18,360 --> 02:40:21,600
going to do anything. I'm Trump
made a big deal about saying

2677
02:40:21,660 --> 02:40:25,020
they're not going to do
anything. Oh, Hillary's fine.

2678
02:40:25,020 --> 02:40:26,340
She just loves you. Like I'm not
gonna

2679
02:40:26,369 --> 02:40:30,299
write. So the setup is FBI
demands it. That's the setup.

2680
02:40:30,929 --> 02:40:34,529
That's the setup. I don't think
Comey is going to do that. But

2681
02:40:34,529 --> 02:40:35,759
we'll see. But I you know, I

2682
02:40:35,760 --> 02:40:37,770
have my doubts about Comey said
he might do

2683
02:40:37,770 --> 02:40:40,260
it after the after the
inauguration.

2684
02:40:41,370 --> 02:40:43,770
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Possibly after the inauguration.

2685
02:40:43,770 --> 02:40:44,070
That's my

2686
02:40:44,070 --> 02:40:46,470
point. Yeah, no, I said, yeah,
no, sorry.

2687
02:40:46,470 --> 02:40:50,280
But yeah, call me is, but he's
not clean. I don't see him as a

2688
02:40:50,280 --> 02:40:54,450
clean guy. The he has, he has
shit on his hands from HSBC.

2689
02:40:54,450 --> 02:40:58,290
He's definitely deeply involved.
But he's an FBI. His

2690
02:40:58,290 --> 02:41:00,900
whole thing was how he is
protected. He also is good,

2691
02:41:00,900 --> 02:41:04,590
politically savvy. He knows not
even he can't do that now before

2692
02:41:04,590 --> 02:41:10,500
the 20 suspicious because that,
you know, two or three months he

2693
02:41:10,500 --> 02:41:12,780
can do it saying well, we've
been working on and working on

2694
02:41:12,780 --> 02:41:15,690
and working on it. We had to be
very thorough because a public

2695
02:41:15,690 --> 02:41:19,500
figure and all the rest of it,
he can, you know, three, six

2696
02:41:19,500 --> 02:41:22,200
months from now it's even
better. Yeah. But once it

2697
02:41:22,200 --> 02:41:28,380
happens have Trump's second
partner that's for sure. Vaughn

2698
02:41:28,380 --> 02:41:29,580
Schmied phone.

2699
02:41:30,630 --> 02:41:35,250
I ended the segment Josh. Tech
News,

2700
02:41:35,550 --> 02:41:38,940
where the Hornies always never
do what we do, because we're

2701
02:41:38,940 --> 02:41:42,390
much better than them. I have
two tech news segments. I don't

2702
02:41:42,390 --> 02:41:45,000
think you have anything for us
today, but I will play my music.

2703
02:41:45,390 --> 02:41:47,940
Alright, here's number one. It's
actually oops.

2704
02:41:48,810 --> 02:41:52,320
Norway is the first country in
the world to begin switching off

2705
02:41:52,320 --> 02:41:55,200
its FM radio network. Right

2706
02:41:56,580 --> 02:41:59,790
that Norway has become the first
country to switch off its radio

2707
02:41:59,790 --> 02:42:00,870
FM network Norway

2708
02:42:00,870 --> 02:42:03,870
has become the first country in
the world to begin switching off

2709
02:42:03,870 --> 02:42:09,870
its FM radio network. The moment
the scheme applies only to

2710
02:42:09,870 --> 02:42:13,290
Northern Nordland. But the whole
country will be digital by the

2711
02:42:13,290 --> 02:42:16,740
end of the year. The government
says Dav radio will save money

2712
02:42:16,740 --> 02:42:19,980
allow more broadcasters and
sound better. But that is only

2713
02:42:19,980 --> 02:42:22,440
if people can hear it. It will
pick it up on my new products

2714
02:42:22,440 --> 02:42:24,900
will be introduced onto the
market over the next few months.

2715
02:42:24,930 --> 02:42:28,620
They'll have tactile buttons and
a text to speech function may

2716
02:42:28,620 --> 02:42:31,650
display at the last stop.
Critics say that while FM

2717
02:42:31,650 --> 02:42:34,530
programs in mountainous Norway
need many transmitters and is

2718
02:42:34,530 --> 02:42:38,310
costly reception at the launch
was poor and especially elderly

2719
02:42:38,310 --> 02:42:41,850
people particularly dependent on
the radio with first generation

2720
02:42:41,850 --> 02:42:47,310
Dav sets will have to upgrade to
dA b plus devices. 2.3 million

2721
02:42:47,310 --> 02:42:50,610
car owners will have no dA b in
their vehicles either.

2722
02:42:51,030 --> 02:42:53,880
Now, there's dA b stuff which
are followed for a long time

2723
02:42:53,880 --> 02:42:58,980
because UK has dA b and the
Netherlands has dA b It's pretty

2724
02:42:58,980 --> 02:43:00,180
much been a failure.

2725
02:43:00,480 --> 02:43:03,450
We have a version of it. We've
had it for years called HD

2726
02:43:03,450 --> 02:43:06,390
Radio, right? But it's a failed
it's been all over the place. I

2727
02:43:06,390 --> 02:43:10,980
can get HD radio, I don't get
it. In HD Radio has been and I

2728
02:43:10,980 --> 02:43:13,950
write but AC radio, HD Radio
still is broadcast on the

2729
02:43:13,950 --> 02:43:20,640
regular FM transmitters. This is
dA b, which requires a different

2730
02:43:20,640 --> 02:43:23,700
transmitter different I think
different frequencies. And it's

2731
02:43:23,700 --> 02:43:25,920
all digital. You need new
receivers.

2732
02:43:28,080 --> 02:43:30,570
I'm going to look into that I'm
not sure that was the same was

2733
02:43:30,570 --> 02:43:36,270
broadcast on the same system.
This is FM. All I know is that

2734
02:43:36,270 --> 02:43:37,200
nobody uses it.

2735
02:43:37,289 --> 02:43:43,049
Right. And but a huge flop. I
think this is it the government

2736
02:43:43,559 --> 02:43:48,149
is forcing people into a digital
only mode which they control.

2737
02:43:48,419 --> 02:43:52,379
Whereas you know, just get on
the interwebs it's not a good

2738
02:43:52,379 --> 02:43:55,439
thing. That's not a good thing.
And Finland should fight against

2739
02:43:55,439 --> 02:43:58,409
this. I don't know why they let
that happen is very and it

2740
02:43:58,859 --> 02:43:59,279
doesn't make

2741
02:43:59,280 --> 02:44:02,370
me famous government control. If
you think about it, that's

2742
02:44:03,269 --> 02:44:06,869
that's my point. It's there's no
improvement.

2743
02:44:07,439 --> 02:44:09,689
No, there's no improve. There's
no reason for it. No, it's

2744
02:44:09,689 --> 02:44:12,989
completely completely I don't
see that the cost savings either

2745
02:44:12,989 --> 02:44:14,009
that they keep talking about

2746
02:44:14,040 --> 02:44:16,620
Well, I think it'll cost only
more and everyone has to buy new

2747
02:44:16,620 --> 02:44:20,010
receivers and yeah, I don't know
it's a scam. It's not it'd be

2748
02:44:20,010 --> 02:44:22,080
what they do is they want all
those frequencies for other

2749
02:44:22,080 --> 02:44:23,460
things. You know, they're going
to Well,

2750
02:44:23,460 --> 02:44:27,360
they did that with digital TV.
And they got away with it. Yeah.

2751
02:44:28,410 --> 02:44:30,750
And they gotta remember when
they went through the process,

2752
02:44:30,750 --> 02:44:32,760
they had these little cards, you
get a free card, you get a

2753
02:44:32,760 --> 02:44:35,190
discount. I mean, there's all
these deals, you have to buy a

2754
02:44:35,190 --> 02:44:38,310
little converter to turn your
regular broadcasting that

2755
02:44:38,310 --> 02:44:42,750
digital bought a couple of them
because they were cheap. And

2756
02:44:43,770 --> 02:44:47,010
then everything it seemed like
an improvement. I think it is.

2757
02:44:47,970 --> 02:44:52,110
But that's a distinct
improvement. HD radio is not

2758
02:44:52,140 --> 02:44:52,530
right.

2759
02:44:54,330 --> 02:44:57,840
Then I have a report from the
Consumer Electronics Show one

2760
02:44:57,840 --> 02:45:00,630
report one report only that I
picked up off of C in it and I'm

2761
02:45:00,630 --> 02:45:04,800
very happy with this report
because I'm feeling a big

2762
02:45:05,040 --> 02:45:06,120
payday.

2763
02:45:06,510 --> 02:45:08,460
It's actually coming from the
verge just say we're checking

2764
02:45:08,460 --> 02:45:12,990
out a new Smart Home robot named
curry bakery, a company called

2765
02:45:12,990 --> 02:45:16,320
Mayfield robotics, which is a
Bosch startup designed curry

2766
02:45:16,350 --> 02:45:19,320
with personality in mind. So the
first thing you'll probably

2767
02:45:19,320 --> 02:45:22,560
notice is curries, eyes and
demeanor. Similarly to the

2768
02:45:22,560 --> 02:45:26,040
Amazon Echo or Google Home
Korean can play music on command

2769
02:45:26,040 --> 02:45:29,730
over Bluetooth, but there's no
voice control just yet. The key

2770
02:45:29,730 --> 02:45:32,610
difference between the Echo and
the Google Home and curry is

2771
02:45:32,610 --> 02:45:35,850
that curry is on wheels. So yes,
in theory, you could have a

2772
02:45:35,850 --> 02:45:39,090
robot Bluetooth speaker
following you around curry moves

2773
02:45:39,090 --> 02:45:42,150
around your house rely on a
depth sensor to figure out where

2774
02:45:42,150 --> 02:45:45,120
obstacles are navigate around
them and make sure it's in the

2775
02:45:45,120 --> 02:45:47,610
right room. One of the ideas
behind Korea is that when you're

2776
02:45:47,610 --> 02:45:50,850
not at home, you can use a kind
of like a surveillance robot. It

2777
02:45:50,850 --> 02:45:54,540
has a camera behind his eyes and
can watch the live feed through

2778
02:45:54,540 --> 02:45:58,830
its companion app. But it
technically dies after two hours

2779
02:45:58,830 --> 02:46:02,550
of constant news. So you
probably won't get a complete

2780
02:46:02,550 --> 02:46:05,370
live feed of the entire day.
Curry knows when its battery's

2781
02:46:05,370 --> 02:46:07,950
running low though, so it will
automatically return to its dock

2782
02:46:07,950 --> 02:46:10,680
so that it's pretty much always
charged. Honestly, during my

2783
02:46:10,680 --> 02:46:14,130
demo with curry. I thought the
robot was super cute. Its eyes

2784
02:46:14,130 --> 02:46:16,500
are expressive and it's
adorable. You can't help but

2785
02:46:16,500 --> 02:46:19,830
want to play with it. But with
that said curry really didn't

2786
02:46:19,830 --> 02:46:21,270
live up to its expectations.

2787
02:46:22,020 --> 02:46:26,040
Now, why these people would not
want curry.com is beyond me.

2788
02:46:26,760 --> 02:46:29,610
They want it they need to buy
that off of me.

2789
02:46:30,180 --> 02:46:32,310
I think so I think it's worth
it. What do you think?

2790
02:46:32,370 --> 02:46:34,770
Well, what I think is first of
all, I think that everyone needs

2791
02:46:34,770 --> 02:46:38,250
to be promoting this promoted
you should sell

2792
02:46:38,250 --> 02:46:41,520
your domain yesterday really
didn't live up to its

2793
02:46:41,520 --> 02:46:42,300
expectations.

2794
02:46:42,330 --> 02:46:44,640
There you go. That's I love that
curry really didn't live up to

2795
02:46:44,640 --> 02:46:45,810
its expectations. Yes,

2796
02:46:45,810 --> 02:46:47,130
that's me. That's all good.

2797
02:46:48,750 --> 02:46:51,510
So yeah, I think it would be
what what do you think domain

2798
02:46:51,510 --> 02:46:54,270
name? I've had it for 20 years.
Yeah. 20

2799
02:46:54,600 --> 02:46:58,680
beside the point, but I You're
smart. But when you bought that

2800
02:46:58,680 --> 02:47:00,930
you should have bought art.com

2801
02:47:00,960 --> 02:47:05,880
Oh, wait a minute. Wait a
minute. Stop. No, no, they spell

2802
02:47:05,880 --> 02:47:16,980
it ko you are I? Oh, no, no.
Dammit. All right, closing out

2803
02:47:16,980 --> 02:47:21,000
the segment. No money line, and
the phone should be made out of

2804
02:47:21,000 --> 02:47:24,870
Bakelite. That's right. That's
your tech news for today. And I

2805
02:47:24,870 --> 02:47:27,450
get no money. No money. Not too
bad.

2806
02:47:28,710 --> 02:47:31,860
Do you think it would have been
worse? I would say I've always

2807
02:47:31,860 --> 02:47:34,050
said a million dollars. That's
where That's where yeah, that's

2808
02:47:34,080 --> 02:47:37,170
that's. Well, I wouldn't sell
it. If it's not a million bucks.

2809
02:47:37,170 --> 02:47:37,860
I wouldn't sell it.

2810
02:47:38,640 --> 02:47:42,000
No, I should be a buyer would
say I think between two and

2811
02:47:42,000 --> 02:47:45,570
five, two and 5 million. Yeah.

2812
02:47:46,860 --> 02:47:48,510
Dream on No way.

2813
02:47:50,040 --> 02:47:51,870
Today's market I believe that
would be the case.

2814
02:47:51,900 --> 02:47:54,540
Well, you are here by my agent.
If you can sell it. I'll give

2815
02:47:54,540 --> 02:48:01,170
you 20% 20 I tell if I had 25%
There you go. You sell it to two

2816
02:48:01,170 --> 02:48:04,350
to 5 million. You sell it for 5
million. A million bucks. I

2817
02:48:04,350 --> 02:48:05,400
think you should go for it.

2818
02:48:05,760 --> 02:48:09,000
Yeah, well, vibe is a tough one.
But it's doable. I think that's

2819
02:48:09,000 --> 02:48:10,650
what it's worth. Alright,

2820
02:48:10,650 --> 02:48:12,960
let's wrap this up, Johnny Boy.
Well, that's k.

2821
02:48:12,960 --> 02:48:17,460
Let's wrap it up by keeping the
hooking up with the report that

2822
02:48:17,460 --> 02:48:21,720
was buried by the Trump news.
The Fort Lauderdale shooter he

2823
02:48:21,720 --> 02:48:24,900
forgot all about him for some
reason. Let's play this clip.

2824
02:48:25,080 --> 02:48:28,680
Well, we now know the identities
so four of the five people who

2825
02:48:28,680 --> 02:48:31,860
were shot to death at the
airport in Fort Lauderdale on

2826
02:48:31,860 --> 02:48:37,770
Friday. They ranged in age from
57 to 84. All were either on

2827
02:48:37,770 --> 02:48:42,870
their way to or returning from a
cruise. Five others remain in

2828
02:48:42,870 --> 02:48:46,710
the hospital. The gunman made
his first court appearance today

2829
02:48:46,770 --> 02:48:50,460
he was assigned a public
defender and denied bail. David

2830
02:48:50,460 --> 02:48:52,290
bagno is in Fort Lauderdale

2831
02:48:53,430 --> 02:48:56,970
with a steely stare has Stevan
Santiago was escorted into

2832
02:48:56,970 --> 02:49:01,050
federal court, feet shackled,
handcuffed and shaking at times.

2833
02:49:01,260 --> 02:49:04,980
He did not explain his motive
and said he only had five to $10

2834
02:49:04,980 --> 02:49:09,210
in his bank account. This video
obtained by TMZ appears to show

2835
02:49:09,210 --> 02:49:12,960
Santiago firing randomly at Fort
Lauderdale International Airport

2836
02:49:12,960 --> 02:49:17,520
on Friday. Prosecutor say
Santiago shot 11 people killing

2837
02:49:17,520 --> 02:49:21,120
five and when he ran out of
ammunition he dropped his weapon

2838
02:49:21,180 --> 02:49:24,810
and surrendered. A law
enforcement source tell CBS News

2839
02:49:24,810 --> 02:49:27,360
Santiago use this nine
millimeter handgun in the

2840
02:49:27,360 --> 02:49:30,960
shooting. It is the same gun the
Iraq War veteran had with him

2841
02:49:31,140 --> 02:49:34,740
when he went to an FBI office in
Anchorage, Alaska last November,

2842
02:49:34,920 --> 02:49:37,830
claiming his mind was being
controlled by US intelligence.

2843
02:49:38,010 --> 02:49:41,820
He said he was being forced to
watch ISIS videos. Santiago was

2844
02:49:41,820 --> 02:49:45,390
committed for four days to be
mentally evaluated. One month

2845
02:49:45,390 --> 02:49:48,330
later, he petitioned to get the
gun back from Anchorage Police

2846
02:49:48,630 --> 02:49:51,810
without a judge's order to
commit him. Police say they had

2847
02:49:51,810 --> 02:49:55,440
no choice but to return it.
Karen Lafleur is the US Attorney

2848
02:49:55,440 --> 02:49:56,730
for the District of Alaska.

2849
02:49:56,940 --> 02:50:00,360
There is a federal law with
regard to having a gun by

2850
02:50:00,360 --> 02:50:03,330
somebody who is mentally ill,
but the law requires that the

2851
02:50:03,330 --> 02:50:06,570
person be quote, adjudicated
mentally ill, this is not

2852
02:50:06,570 --> 02:50:09,030
somebody that would have been
prohibited, based on the

2853
02:50:09,030 --> 02:50:11,760
information that they had. I
think that law enforcement acted

2854
02:50:11,760 --> 02:50:13,620
within the laws that that they
have.

2855
02:50:13,800 --> 02:50:17,100
David Weinstein is a former
federal prosecutor was enough

2856
02:50:17,100 --> 02:50:17,910
done with this guy.

2857
02:50:18,030 --> 02:50:20,910
My gut tells me that they didn't
do quite enough they should have

2858
02:50:20,910 --> 02:50:24,690
dug a little bit deeper to find
out exactly what was going on

2859
02:50:24,690 --> 02:50:27,990
inside his head when he gave
them the gun and then when he

2860
02:50:27,990 --> 02:50:28,890
asked for it back

2861
02:50:30,000 --> 02:50:33,090
in court today, Santiago said he
spent the last few years in

2862
02:50:33,090 --> 02:50:36,300
Anchorage, Alaska working as a
security guard. Scott,

2863
02:50:36,300 --> 02:50:38,820
prosecutors say he confessed to
planning this attack and

2864
02:50:38,820 --> 02:50:43,950
apparently chose Fort Lauderdale
at random. quite random.

2865
02:50:43,980 --> 02:50:45,720
Really? Yeah.

2866
02:50:47,400 --> 02:50:49,470
That's a new piece of
information. They still want to

2867
02:50:49,470 --> 02:50:52,170
talk about the Muslim
connection, but that so we'll

2868
02:50:52,170 --> 02:50:53,070
figure that right. Well, we

2869
02:50:53,070 --> 02:50:56,850
know we know the top FBI anti
terrorism Muslim guy was on the

2870
02:50:56,850 --> 02:50:59,580
case. So there's obviously
something going on.

2871
02:51:00,090 --> 02:51:05,430
Yeah. Really fleshed this out
properly. But there you have it.

2872
02:51:06,210 --> 02:51:10,440
All right, buddy. Very nice.
Good show. Thank you, John.

2873
02:51:10,470 --> 02:51:14,250
Thank you all producers. From
coast to coast, ocean to ocean

2874

Gitmo nation. Games for notice.

2875
02:51:20,940 --> 02:51:23,850
Nothing's Thursday. There's
nothing going on. No,

2876
02:51:24,030 --> 02:51:25,170
we get up so good.

2877
02:51:25,500 --> 02:51:29,790
Oh, good. Good. Excellent. A
night everybody. We will see you

2878
02:51:29,790 --> 02:51:32,730

That will be on Sunday. I will

2879
02:51:32,730 --> 02:51:35,880
be coming to you from the
Netherlands. My sister Tiffany

2880
02:51:35,880 --> 02:51:40,830

do a quick trip out and back to

2881
02:51:40,830 --> 02:51:44,010
just one show from the lowlands,
but you never know. They're

2882
02:51:44,010 --> 02:51:47,310
expecting a foot of snow in the
Netherlands could get stuck

2883
02:51:47,310 --> 02:51:54,150
there. Let's hope not. Remember
I said divorce.org/n. A for your

2884
02:51:54,150 --> 02:51:57,300
support of the financial nature.

02:52:00,330 --> 02:52:03,150

condo in the skyscraper here in

2887

morning, everybody. I'm Adam

Dvorak.

2892
02:52:14,429 --> 02:52:20,429
We'll be back on Sunday right
here on no agenda. Ah yo

2893
02:52:20,429 --> 02:52:21,719
smartphones

2894
02:52:29,760 --> 02:52:42,210
you are fake news. People show
that he was going to come out

2895
02:52:42,210 --> 02:52:43,470
with what he knows.

2896
02:52:43,860 --> 02:52:47,700
What can he know that the
intelligence communities don't

2897
02:52:47,880 --> 02:52:51,750
know. But we do know that the
intelligence communities don't

2898
02:52:51,900 --> 02:52:55,530
know we do know that the
intelligence communities don't

2899
02:52:55,710 --> 02:52:58,710
know that we do know that he was
going to

2900
02:53:00,510 --> 02:53:04,860
be like a celebration like happy
60th anniversary Occupy movement

2901
02:53:04,860 --> 02:53:09,810
like we're having a potluck and
we like fed people chili and

2902
02:53:09,810 --> 02:53:12,390
we're like enjoying each other's
company. Hey,

2903
02:53:12,390 --> 02:53:15,300
let's rock against anger. I
agree with that with anger. I

2904
02:53:15,540 --> 02:53:17,700
was shocked. Really? Yes.
Really?

2905
02:53:17,730 --> 02:53:19,710
When you went on Twitter all
these people moaning and

2906
02:53:19,710 --> 02:53:21,870
groaning about Clinton they're
trolls all

2907
02:53:21,900 --> 02:53:25,170
paid and as we know trolls are
paid but they could be quasi

2908
02:53:25,170 --> 02:53:27,870
government troll so they could
be paid trolls that aren't with

2909
02:53:27,870 --> 02:53:29,220
the government but I don't know
if this

2910
02:53:29,700 --> 02:53:33,660
implies the to me at least
passive Yeah. Okay, awesome

2911
02:53:33,660 --> 02:53:34,320
collection.

2912
02:53:34,620 --> 02:53:38,790
When it comes to espionage, we
better be careful about when it

2913
02:53:38,790 --> 02:53:41,640
comes to can we better be ready
to throw rocks do you agree with

2914
02:53:41,640 --> 02:53:43,620
that? That's a good metaphor.

2915
02:53:43,740 --> 02:53:46,950
It's a disaster. I think what
you want to do is you want to
