This breaks out in San Francisco where this you have the poop map
at least you got a map. Adam curry, John C. Dvorak.
It's Thursday, September 14 2017. This is your award
winning give donation media assassination episode nine or
six, four. This
is no agenda.
The only thing left to blame is the algos coming to you from the
darkest corners of the internet in downtown Austin Tejas
capital, the drone star stay in the studio in the morning,
everybody. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where there's a bunch of noise
outside on John C. Dvorak. Hill.
It's not the noise if it's not the sun in your eyes if it's not
the Zephyr being late.
One thing after another unbelievable I'm telling you.
So, by the way, shouldn't you to eclipse one Oh, I didn't really
mean to I don't know why it did that. I didn't do it. And one of
them has does not have enough clips.
Oh, okay. You could have told me this. Just before you said that.
To start. I was just
about the interrupters theme so I didn't do that. But I said I
can do it on the show. Okay. I business on the air. Yeah, I
think I got everything. I think I think I'm good. Okay, I
flipped one. A phony Eclipse one and then Eclipse two.
I think I only had to eclipse one. I don't think I had a phony
Eclipse one should have to eclipse one. And people should
know that the way this works is I have no idea what John is
sending me. I never look at it. I don't care. I only care that
he brings something to the show. And he has no idea what I have.
There is no collusion.
No collusion yet. Yeah,
I think I got him. Alright, let's test it. asked me for a
clip. Let's see if I have it.
Well, I have to go to the printer and get my clipless
you are completely unprepared sir.
Looks like it. thinks so. Yeah, well, we're gonna play some
clues. Let's get that one out of the way. It's just kind of the
lighthearted clips. Because there's nothing more amusing
than to listen to Hillary, who's on the book tour?
Wait, can I can I do a little I have the best. I have the best.
All excuses in one which is not edited. Because, you know,
there's a lot of really funny ones about the you know, the
people have hacked together all of your excuses from the book.
This is I'd love to hear this. This is this is two minutes. And
this is I think is from the Jane Pauley interview where she
really throws it all in there. unedited.
I went from I think 26 points ahead to 13 points ahead. And I
needed about 18 points in order to be sure I could win
Pennsylvania. Okay. I watched how analysts who I have a great
deal of respect for like Nate Silver, before
we even continue with this. Here's what I don't understand.
Somehow these analysts, the pollsters, the polling numbers,
whatever it is that they say when the following is repeated.
I was 13 points ahead until the Comey memo, then I lost out.
Weren't these the same guys and gals of the data who were saying
that she was a shoo in 95%. What numbers are they talking about
when this when this is mentioned every single time?
Well, I don't know the context of what you're asking me this
question.
Oh, okay. Every every interview, she's done, she says I was 13
points ahead until the Comey memo or the till the Comey came
out and said that we're reopening the investigation.
Show. Okay, so what point?
I'm going to rephrase your question. Thank you. Helpful.
Right before the election long after the Comey memo, they had
her in the bag. She was going to win by this much. And there was
no doubt about it. And that was after the Comey memo.
Right. But then he reopened, he announced that he really No, I'm
saying after he reopened, that was that was five days wasn't in
five days before. But that was the
day these guys were pulling up to the last
second. That's what I thought. And now, in hindsight, there's
not even seven it's in hindsight. It's like everyone
said, I dropped all these points, to say it's bullcrap.
There was know what numbers would point. In
fact, I remember wait. I remember hearing people say
after the Comey thing. Well, people have already made up
their mind. Yeah, there was that a lot of that? Yeah, they're not
gonna change their minds because of this. She's a shoo in. All
right.
Well, we'll continue with her excuse. Two minutes.
A great deal of respect for like Nate Silver,
who got everything wrong,
all the data and said but for that Comey letter, she would
have won. So it was very personal to me. I think my
general election prospects were so badly damaged Electoral
College watch, even though I was starting to come back. It was
not enough. Time to overcome it. But even though that was the
primary blow to my campaign, there we go. It has to be looked
at in context with the Russians weaponizing information,
negative stories about me. This whole WikiLeaks wiki beginning
to leak in early October of John Podesta Z mails if you read them
all just as they're pretty anodyne, but they were taken out
of context so stories were made up about them pizza gate we now
know Facebook was taking the money from Russian companies
take run
taking Romani from Russian, I can just imagine the way she
says it. There's Zuckerberg in a dark alley. A comrade, you have
to get your money. Yes, I got the money. Okay, we got it.
Well, we're in those will destroy here with these face bag
ads, Vlad,
taking money from Russian companies to run negative
stories about me. If you look at all of this, yes, it affected me
and my campaign. But I am more concerned now going forward
about that. We haven't come to grips with what it means for
future elections. I would also add that the voter suppression
that we now know, had been in the works and the works really
put into effect in a lot of states like Wisconsin, North
Carolina, etc. Yeah, misogyny role model. And then let's not
forget sexism, and misogyny, which are endemic to our
society. And certainly, as I write in my chapter called on
being a woman in politics have to be factored in. Oh,
my goodness. That's it's a good that's a good little two minutes
there. Hello, yeah. Oh,
I didn't know if you're still there or not.
Well, she was on the road. With this excuse tour. She's still on
the road. None was still is yeah, she's on it. While she was
still as many books as she can
get, which I believe are now all half price at Barnes and Noble.
Thereby one get one half off in the UK, Amazon deleting their
one star reviews, which is apparently policy if it's an
autobiography. I didn't realize that. I didn't know this. Yeah,
Amazon has been deleting one star reviews for the book. And
they say, oh, yeah, no, if it's an autobiography, then we feel
that we need to kind of normalize the data. So we have
to take out the outliers because autobiography, you know, that's,
that's just an opinion of the author is total crap. I didn't
know that. This was policy. I've never heard of it before. Maybe
it's probably a
good idea.
Yeah, because it's so truthful.
I would say I want to get the book now because people have
been showing excerpts from it. And I definitely read all kinds
of crazy stuff in there like her. Her analysis of the movie
1984. Like this won't happen here. If we have more government
control.
I mean, she ever read 1984 I don't think so. Here's here's a
face bag post from a friend of mine. The face bag friend no
less. I'm on chapter 24. And I couldn't possibly hate people
who voted against Hillary more than I do right now. She's
literally as perfect as a smart person can be. The people who
voted against her don't deserve anything better than being
screwed by screwed up, man. They lost enough to follow. Hillary
is so smart and so good in her haters are so undereducated and
so delusional. It's not just heartbreaking. It's hard and
devastating that she isn't our president.
Wow. That's the read of the of the month. That's a great note.
Yeah, this is what is wrong with Okay, well, I'll leave let's go
to let's go to NBC didn't do that on the on his new show. I'm
sorry, NBC. CBS is the one who avoided running a free promotion
for her book for some reason. I don't understand.
Isn't Simon and Schuster, her publisher? Isn't that CBS?
I think it is but I think they may have plugged it pre plugged
it or somebody on his line the last on this last couple of
days. The two other networks ran the red promotions but it was
all promotions. Like on the view Hillary was like ABC runs a clip
of her on the view and then NBC runs a clip of her on the Today
Show. CBS didn't have never on any shows. I guess she'd been on
Colbert. They've already plugged the book enough
as she is going on Colbert she already done that. So maybe
tonight
it might be tonight. It's coming. I definitely want to
check that out because I did watch the Bernie thing which was
pathetic? Yeah. So let's let's listen to these, these this same
thing that you played only done just kind of a little
reiteration. Let's start with NBC.
Back in the spotlight tonight Hillary Clinton her new memoir,
what happened and account of successful 2016 presidential
campaign is hitting shelves. And while Clinton does take some
responsibility for her loss in the book, she also points blame
at a number of other parties chief among them former FBI
Director James Comey and VCs, Andrea Mitchell with more on
that.
Hillary Clinton acknowledging her own
flaws, people will say, Well, hey, you know, there's all this
noise around her all the time and some of it is of my own
doing is putting her first live
TV interview since Election Day, claiming her loss squarely on
former FBI Director James Comey. With Savannah Guthrie and Matt
Lauer rush did
you make enough mistakes yourself?
I think it's it's good to point out that she hates Matt Lauer.
And I believe there's a piece in her book about him that the deal
was remember when she did the townhall, and he started
continued asking about the emails, what's with the emails?
Why do you do this? That was not in the script. He came up with
that. I recall the next day. She was really pissed off about it.
But do we have I mean, we have a clip from that.
Good habit, that'd be great. But she's day, he's obviously still
on her case. Because although they seem a slightly good
humoured about the exchange that's about to take place.
Law Lauer to Hillary
and if I say to somebody on the Republican side, aren't you
nervous about what's happening with this campaign and this
division and what might happen to the convention? That was, you
know, what I hear a lot, they are clinging to the hope.
Now, that wasn't the one about the emails, but that was that I
did that. But that is from the townhall anyway, so she hates
him for that very reason, because he didn't stick to the
script.
Well, he she did her first interview with him so that
they're trying to make amends, I think but then Lauer asked her a
question that she answered, I think, which really says it all.
With a
lot of passive aggression is what I saw Russia,
did you make enough mistakes yourself to lose the election
without any the other things you talk about? Well, I
will say no, Matt,
I don't think that will surprise you. In her new book, she writes
about a lack of passion failing to connect with angry voters
running a status quo campaign against a reality TV star. I do
it on today. She said she would have won, if not for call me,
especially reopening the email investigation only 11 days
before the election. Absent
that, I believe, and I think the evidence shows I would have won.
Were there headwind to yes. But the role that he played
historically was determined.
Honestly, today, Clinton's first reaction to Donald Trump Jr. and
his controversial campaign meeting with the Russians
now says he was trying to learn about your fitness for office,
another absurd lie to cover up what really was going on.
In her book, Clinton also settle scores with the press, Joe Biden
and Bernie Sanders, and today accuses President Trump of not
being a president for all Americans,
frankly, a misunderstanding of what he's been doing is exactly
one of the reasons that Hillary Clinton is not the president.
And if Clinton got to do over the election were held today,
Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton on the ballot again,
when she went, Oh, I don't know. I think that there's at least a
5050 chance I would
just Andrea Mitchell, NBC News, Washington.
Anyone asked her if she was going to visit Houston? Or if
she was going to know Florida? If she did she does it get her?
Does she give a crap at all? She mentioned anything about anyone
else but herself.
during which she cheated. She always talks about herself.
I know. But it's she has zero compassion for what's going on.
I mean, I just haven't seen her talk about maybe she has. But
it's, it's you know, it's like everyone does that. It's like
when you have even when you see people the first day still
irked. Yeah, I know, but it's not okay. It's very rude. It's
unwell.
I don't know what you're seeing. I don't know what how you're
seeing this. But I heard that person whose letter you read
from the face beggars. Yeah, it must be man. Nailing it, it must
be me. Or it must be me. Gotta be you. So let's go to ABC where
they had this time they the best they could do is get Hillary to
go on the view.
We turn next here to Hillary Clinton breaking her silence on
some of the key moments that played out in the president. And
people say the views not important. She'll campaign her
new book out called what happened. Clinton acknowledging
her own mistakes, but also saying today that she would have
won had it not been for James Comey intervening in those final
days to say he was looking into newly discovered emails, only
later to say there was nothing there. She's also that third
debate when millions watched as then candidate Donald Trump
seemed to follow her around on stage something she said she
tried to prepare for during debate prep,
but failed. Clearly. We prep those There's a lot of what I'm
hearing is I should have done this. I should have said this. I
wanted to tell this person that but I didn't. I just went along
with the program. It's exactly what a leader does not do.
To your face bag friend.
He's your friend to
his then candidate Donald Trump. You seem to follow her around on
stage something she said she tried to prepare for during
debate prep.
We practiced the young man who played Trump practiced stalking
me. Real Oh, yes. Oh, yeah. stalking me. Really nasty
things.
Then why did she fail so miserably to me,
because I wanted to keep my composure within though, when I
was actually onstage. It felt so different. We that's when I was
thinking like, Okay, what do I do? Well, we got you something
that you can just wear this from now on.
They get her a burqa. What is it?
Now they got her a t shirt, and on the back of it says Back off.
Clinton also revealing she did not prepare a concession speech
and that she felt enormous responsibility before delivering
it, saying it was only when she left with her husband, the
former president in that car watching supporters on the
street, that she then had no words. Oh,
yeah. What is the point? What is What do you does she have an
agenda so to speak, that you're aware of the besides her
foundation?
She wants to make some money on these books. Now? While she
she's done a book?
You do? Yeah. But she's just fulfilling her the obligation of
her of her. I
think the report that mentioned that she got her her. She got
her punches in on Biden and everyone she knows any slight
grudge that she had picked up along the way she had to get it
out of her system. That would make it kind of interesting
reading.
She was also on with Cooper. Anderson Cooper and what Cooper?
Yeah, called Cooper.
I mean, you have a clip. Yeah, I
got a clip Cooper. two clips actually Cooper was that he was
down in Florida. And I swear to you by watched intently, the
guys on camera flexing his muscles. He had a t shirt on.
And then you know, he's you know, like you turn if you if
you hold your arms down by your side, but then you turn your
thumbs inward. Then you make yourself a little broader. And
then he was flexing and that's how we sit in there talk and it
was really bizarre. Who creepy? Yeah, you know, the tight t
shirt. I don't want to label but yeah, in the book,
you make no attempt to hide your displeasure about the Electoral
College and you say on page 386. You say the god forsaken? Vote
obviously multiple times in the book. Yes. Do you think the
Electoral College evolved?
I said that in 2000. After what happened to the 2000 election
with Al Gore, I was elected to the Senate that same year. And
if you look at our recent history, we've had several
candidates nominees who have won the popular vote and lost the
electoral college. What does that say? And it says Makran ism
that was designed for another time. No longer works. If we've
moved toward one person, one vote. That's how we select
winners. I was amused after the French elections when I was
listening to an interview with a French electoral expert. And he
said, Well, unlike your country, the person who wins the most
votes wins. Well, so I think your country eliminated I'd like
to see us move beyond it. Yes. All right,
just getting rid of the Electoral College. Right now.
Good luck,
just to get it. I think it can happen because I've written this
essay and I keep promising to put it on republish it or read
it once you put up this newsletter.
Yeah, it should. It's pretty long, but no donations. Yeah, we
get no donation if I do that. Exactly. But it discusses the
fact that is the media that will promote this because the media
is never going to promote campaign finance reform. If it
starts to come up and get serious Oh, it's the media's
gonna quash it because their money all the money goes to the
media. So why would they want campaign finance?
Well, well, there maybe they I'm thinking of this Facebook thing
is bubbling. It's bubbling under, it's gonna pop up and
identified this couple shows ago, New York Times their
headline was, Facebook wins, democracy loses. So they're
really pissed off at the face bag and it keeps coming up.
There's now calls to make Mark Zuckerberg testify. I think it's
a move on. Petition.
Mark Zuckerberg is like the biggest supporter of the
Democrats to this really the irony of it is just right. It's
just it's it's delicious. It's
too delicious to believe. So I'm waiting for that. I think that
will that will pop up and there's going to be a lot of
scrambling there. They're doing some they're doing very well at
home. Holding the fire back momentarily. But I think
particularly Rachel Maddow is all over them.
Yeah, but I wanted to mention something and I was thinking
about that, which is, you know, and Loretta, because I have this
thesis that I've been it's an underlying thesis that you can't
prove or disprove. But as always, it may help explain
certain things that Bill Clinton was trying to say always
undermining Hillary's campaign because he didn't want to be
right here to be president, which was
why she was poisoning him and why it looks so bad.
It's, they're both this is like, you know, the War of the Roses.
These two he
was poisoning her and then she was poisoning him. And now they
both seem to be fine. Isn't that strange? I like your they fits
in the thesis. Yes.
It all fits in. I believe, if I'm gonna go along with that
thesis that the meeting be the secret meeting between Loretta
Lynch and Bill Clinton on the tarmac was about knocking her
out. Yeah, it was about this release some emails, let's get
some more. You get Do you know, can you do this? You know, you
you know, Well, Bill, Ami I
gonna do after you're done here. You want to work for the
foundation?
Yeah, it could be something like that. Whatever. I just Just call
me thing that she keeps bringing up. We seem to be focusing on it
could backfire is what you're saying? I'm sorry. It could
possibly backfire. When the when the Muller report comes out?
Oh, you don't know. It could be. The whole thing is a mess. As
all I know.
Comey is under fire. If there's a there's there's a reason why
Sarah Sanders is talking to the White House press corps about,
about Comey about you know, all the felonies, and he's horrible.
He did it on, you know, FBI equipment. He was under his
employment rules broke his FBI contract. They're not just doing
that, because I'm sure that there's either something brewing
or it's to directly combat to Hillary's book to her with
Comey, this Comey that by adding on to it what a bad guy he is.
They're not stupid. They're.
I don't know. We'll say Well, that's yes.
I tell you, I stayed up last night to watch Sean Spicer on
Jimmy Kimmel. Oh,
that have been interesting.
Dud. Done. Oh, it was so bad. I didn't even pull a clip of the
how bad it was. It was the guy's not funny. Jimmy was the whole
he started off with. And in Tampa. How come you had the line
for the President about the science of then the inaugural
crowd? Yeah, it's like an uncomfortable question. Spicer
said, he said thanks for doing it. Thanks for bringing it up.
In the first so hold the eighth block was all about that. The
chemo was poor form. Really bad he could have done a much better
job is Spicer who by the way, when you see him walk just up
because I never you only see him behind the podium, man. Melissa
McCarthy really did nail that guy. They are the same person.
Yeah. The mannerisms, the head movements, all of that stuff.
Will Kimball is so it is somehow something happened. And he got
he's lost. He's lost. He's cold. He's totally gone off the deep
end dimension B style. I watched Fallon I've been watching i love
the three guys. I mean, Cole bear is just a complete on watch
huge for the CIA. And Campbell has tried to, you know, get his
ratings up because he's number three. And he instead of going
further into those great sketches he does and those bids
and the man on the street and all that sort of thing. He's
kind of become a just a Trump hater for some reason. And
Fallon, you know, the friend, you know, the drinker. Seems to
temper it better. He still just has a couple of jokes at the
beginning. He still does his trump voice and he does a lot of
other voices. Yeah. And then he's he gets off of it. And he
starts right but what he's running a regular show.
Well, then the regular infantile show, doing stores stupid games
with celebrity eyes is completely vapid and empty. And
CO and CO bears. Oh, yeah.
Well, I'm just pointing off, we're just pointing out our
culture.
Yes, still the vapid and empty.
And Colbert is just so hateful. It's just the hate, isn't it?
It's in his eyes. I'll watch him if he has a good guest on of
course, but now, have you mentioned the CIA now in the
past few days, and there was a lot of interesting things have
happened. We talked about how Steve Botanik the psyops
military guy who's been in State Department And Dunn has a very,
very impressive resume. Yeah, who's in Florida and has no
power by the way, but he's okay. You always got to check in when
someone's over 70 You gotta check on him. He is at war with
Roger Stone. It's very odd and it's happening on Infowars. I'm
not going to play any clips because it means all over the
web, you can listen to it yourself. And the battlefield is
General Kelly.
Where and I think big masters in there too.
Now it's about Kelly McMasters may be important, but that's not
what the argument is about. And botanic is very angry at Roger
Stone, who keeps saying the Roger Stone as a show on
Infowars is talking about we're gonna get him out. He's got to
go. Kelly's no good. And so I would think that maybe stone is
on the three letter agency side Catholics and action, while
Putin pathetic is on the military intelligence side, and
he's saying, Oh, no, we have Kelly in there because we have
command and control over Trump's Twitter, which I would say seems
to be correct. We haven't seen too much tweeting at all really
recently.
I have the tweets I've noticed recently, I've been very tame
and yes, usually complimentary or congratulatory and things
like
so sorry. So Roger Stone is taking it one step further. And
he's saying by I spoke with the President the other day, and he
was slurring his words, he's being drugged. insinuating that
Kelly is drugging him, I might add
or insinuate is somebody's dragging him and this began
around the 11th, I believe, and I do have a clip I didn't want
to play. But it's Alex Jones summarizing the dragging thing.
And I think maybe we should play it i Even though I, I think our
general policy is not to be playing a lot of Jones because
most of them just keep going on and on. So I cut it down as much
as I could.
I was told this by high level sources, that it was evident and
especially after Reagan was shot in his first year in office when
he was acting like Trump and doing the right things that he
never really recovered. They gave him cold blood and his
transfusion that causes brain damage. They slowly gave him
small amounts of sedatives. It's known that most presidents end
up getting drug, small dosages of sedatives till they build it
up. Trump such a bull. He hasn't fully understood it yet, but
I've talked to people, multiple ones that and they believe that
they are putting a slow sedative that they're building up. That's
also addictive in his Diet Cokes. And in his ICE T shirt,
you
don't need anything extra in diet coke to kill someone.
President by six or seven at night is basically slurring his
words and is drugged, the first and isolating to do that. But
yes, ladies and gentlemen, I've talked to people to talk to the
President now at night at night. He is slurring his words. I
don't like him putting chemicals in the water that turn the
friggin frogs gay.
Yeah. Now, I'm big on conspiracy theories like this. I really I
really enjoy hearing that. And I have always believed our
presidents are pretty much completely controlled. I
understand Reagan already was had onset of dementia when he
came into office. I don't think they had to do anything to him.
What I'm what I'm missing, what maybe is the genius of what is
Trump? There's no double
molars. That's debatable.
Okay, have you detected a double because we know Obama had a
double.
And there's supposed to be a double and the double A Dick
Gregory is the one who brought this up and with all his
conspiracy ideas, and he said there's two Trump's the one with
the blue ties the double. And it's kind of crazy not to have a
double, especially when, you know, a lot of people don't like
you. But I don't know, you know, it seems to be that Obama was at
least a slightly bit more generic type of person that
could have a summit looks like and Trump is such a weird
looking guy. Exactly. That it makes it very difficult without
just a lot of plastic surgery and a lot of work to do and have
a Delabar I didn't notice there's one version of him that
where his hair is a little bit different than the than the
monkey here. Yeah. But
was he carrying his purse on the other arm?
Because that was still an old show. That's
the that's the tail for Hillary's double that it
definitely exists. No doubt. Yeah,
I think there's definitely Hillary double. Well,
anyway, so this war and we've always known their wars. And the
picture to me becomes relatively clear that the Republic that is
the United States kind of runs bronze, and the personalities in
a lot of these organizations. A lot of the agencies within the
federal government are so large and they run like a system and
you know, taking the personality out doesn't necessarily change
things or change things overnight. And that's probably
something that Trump has underestimated thinking I can
talk to everybody and but it's, it's really just not the way it
works. So his mission, I guess, then would be to blow stuff up.
But in the meantime, whoever is and this is just the thesis that
I'm working on whoever's in control of, quote, the White
House, whether it's military intelligence, or CIA, they kind
of run things the way they see fit. And honestly, I would put
my becoming from a CIA family pretty much, I still would
prefer military intelligence, because they just seem to have
their head on straight. And this latest that came from the new
director, Mike Pompeo, who we don't really know much about
him, I don't think you are either, like,
I know, but he's got he's got a demeanor and from what I can
tell, just his demeanor. And some of the things he said he is
has to be the biggest dick in the whole operation.
Well, this cutting now we're down to a word game with this
guy, which is I'm happy about because, you know, gives us a
little more extra fun work to do. We had a lot of this with
Obama, the words he used, were always so precise, and
particular, you could never really catch him on a lie
because he you know, they were the right words to at least, you
know, it's like there's no evidence that you know, that
kind of stuff. So he there's a it's the intelligence
Authorization Act. That I don't know if it's approved. But there
was some interesting language that got put into it, which
refers directly to when Mike Pompeo CIA director says here as
a policy, the CIA does not comment on the accuracy of
purported intelligence documents posted online. In keeping with
that policy, I will not specifically comment on the
authenticity or provenance of recent disclosures. But the
false narratives that increasingly define our public
discourse cannot be ignored. There are fictions out there
that demean and distort the work and achievements of the CIA and
the intelligence community more broadly. And in the absence of a
vocal rebuttal. These voices, once the proclaimed treason to
be public advocacy, gain a gravity that they do not
deserve, it's time to call these voices out. The men and women of
this age deserve a real defense, as does our nation. And that's
one of the reasons we say find the celebration of entities like
WikiLeaks to be both perplexing and deeply troubling, because
while we do our best to quietly collect information on those who
pose a very real threats to our country, individuals, such as
Julian Assange and Edward Snowden seek to use that
information to make a name for themselves. As long as they make
a splash, they can nothing about the lives they put at risk or
the damage they cause really, to national security. WikiLeaks
walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks
like a hostile intelligence service, and has encouraged its
followers to find jobs at the CIA in order to obtain
intelligence, IQ directed. I've never heard him say that.
I haven't either. I don't know what he's still I have, well,
maybe it's a post or something like that. But Hello, don't you
think everyone's trying to get people into your well, actually,
that's the point. What am I talking about? Almost, in order
to obtain intelligence, it directed Chelsea Manning in her
theft of specific secret information, I'd like to I'd
like to use the right pronoun. That was kind of not true.
What Chelsea Manning said this so herself. He he at the time,
wasn't directed by that WikiLeaks to go get that
information? No, it was directed how I mean, I mean, this is one
of those examples we keep talking about on the show become
returned right to rewrite history by just changing a word
to he wasn't directed, but they've been trying to pin the
fact that when we, if you remember, when when Manny was
first busted, they tried to find some way to prove that he was
directed. So they could blame say he was directed by Assange.
So they could go after Assange illegally. Right. But they never
could get that. So. So now, all of a sudden, it's a fact, what
Pompeo just said.
Yeah, and that doesn't even matter. Because the what you
needed to hear was already in the clip. And that is the same
language that returns in the authorization of military
intelligence act. One line Wiki Leaks resembles a non state
hostile Intelligence Service, and the US government should
treat it as such, which means anyone who has anything even,
perhaps even if you visit wikileaks.org, you can be spied
on by I would say in this case, NSA. It's a legal reasoning. So
now anyone who has anything to do with WikiLeaks, immediately
you are a member of a non state hostile intelligence service,
which is exactly why he's talking about trying to get
people to join the CIA. who are working for WikiLeaks? Yeah, you
don't think Russia does that? You don't think isI does? Well?
No is I belong to CIA? Yeah, you don't you don't think that there
are other state intelligence agencies who do that? Of course
they do. This is now putting wiki leaks on the same legal
footing and anyone associated with WikiLeaks as a hostile
intelligence SSB Yeah, yeah. Which means action can be taken.
And it's, it's, it's disgusting.
No, it is disgusting. And I would be irked to have I had
some of my stuff showing up on WikiLeaks because I couldn't
secure it. I mean, whose fault is that? The fact that a bunch
and a lot of CIA material was recently put on WikiLeaks
discussing all kinds of schemes and mediocre but
I get zero traction, no one cares about whoever
whatever but some but people at the CIA care because it may be
one of their schemes or their name is in there now. Or even
though I think they black most of that stuff out and innocent,
embarrassing. So because of because of embarrassment. Yes.
Not being able to secure this data. Yeah. It's just like
Equifax. Now there's had this huge embarrassment. And they're
supposed to be a secret spy agency, they should be able to
secure these things. And they couldn't. So they're gonna go
after the guy who received it, you know, and published it. I
guess you
really republished what? Oh, you're talking about WikiLeaks?
I'm sorry. I thought it was something about Equifax. No, no,
no, no, I just mentioned that. I got it. Yeah, no. Yeah. Well,
maybe. Well, the fact that it's published is a secret. Hey,
Equifax, apparently also has data on 44 million Brits. Oops,
this surprises me.
Yeah. But here's a question. I had it. Can we move past
WikiLeaks you have anything else to say on that? I think I'm
good. This is the whole concept of having your identity stolen.
The Warrens two seconds of thought, My identity is my
identity. It's not stealable. Besides me, it's in me, but it's
now somehow become like a data product. And it is our identity.
This kind of a esoteric thought, but identity is used for mainly
for authentication, wouldn't you say? It's all about your the
last four digits of your social, it's even you know, it's all
it's all these places where we
should not name your first dog, right? No, I would be glad to
discuss this a little bit. Because I've always been
concerned about the fact that And whose fault is this, by the
way that the banks instead of meeting with you, going over
your personal items getting to know you decided that you're
okay to give the home loan to instead of doing all these
things that used with your loan officer was your loan officer,
with a loan officer got someone who doesn't knows what they're
doing, which is the way it was when I was a kid, even though I
didn't get a home loan when I was a kid. But so it was too all
of a sudden changing to what's your FICO scores, too low get
out, right. So now you're just a number.
But that but but it also represented represents your full
identity in every sense of the word. And it's very bizarre,
that your identity can be
checked on by this nonsense of a social your social security
numbers out there all, keep it protect your social security
number. Every time you sign up for a job, you're giving them
your social security number. Every time you do anything you'd
give, you're giving your social security number to another
situation where there's no reason to give the social
security number to these guys. But if you don't give it to
them, you won't get a job or you won't get an interview, you
won't get this. So the social security numbers is just in the
wild. And it's been released a number of times with various
data breaches. And in the late 90s, there was some company that
had a huge database that they were just selling anybody who
wanted it was legal and had everybody's social security
numbers and dates of birth on there. I mean, it seems to me
that there's that these numbers are worthless as identifier, you
know
what I like? I would like in fact, I think we should demand
as citizens and this goes for Gitmo nation GMT as well
apparently. I want to see the algo but I want to see the
calculation that comes up with my score. What is it based on? I
think I have a right to know.
I think you should you do to know
we need to know what's up with the algo with the algos.
I love this.
No, this whole thing is a disaster that has been allowed
to happen. And if anybody's I did the way I see it, if you can
prove your identity which you should be able to do the
fingerprint, right and a visit in the court if somebody has
stolen your identity and rip the bank off for 10,000 $100,000
There should be a law in some legislatures out there should
think about this. If this happens to the bank, they should
be completely liable for the whole thing. If they lost
$100,000 They shouldn't be going after you. You didn't take out
you didn't rip them off. Yeah. Well, how's it your
responsibility? When you have your identity stolen? Is
somebody then they steal money from someone again, it goes
using your identity, why wouldn't that be your
responsibility? Because
when I was born with an identity, I didn't have to worry
about it. My identity was effectively stolen by this these
shitty companies. And they're just passing it around and
laying it out on the street. Whether it's valuable or not,
I'm not too worried about that. Go ahead, steal my steal my bank
account. Enjoy all $40 It's just the I don't know maybe it's the
word that bugs me. And and it's and it flows neatly into the new
iPhone, which Oh my God, that's a that's a that is a ruined
company, a ruined crippled company.
It is, you know, I got a note in from a dude named Mohammed. Ah,
this is good to know. Oh, yeah. And that was like 10 minutes
after we got his note. I started seeing memes similar to it on
the Facebook. Go ahead, tell tell everyone what you see.
It says, Okay, this is how does a woman wearing a niqab or a
burka, or any of these face coverings get to identify
herself on an iPhone because it does face recognition as as an
identifier. Unless you have to disrupt this robe or take this
thing off. And maybe they in public, there's not supposed to
do that. And all the rest. And I'm thinking the thing is just
naturally racist.
Totally. It's I Islamophobic with a small i Big s
Islamophobic? Well, there's a lot of problems. I really don't
understand, but Well, I do understand this is where
engineering and design completely blew it. So design
Johnny, I've been I'm just guessing, but this is what it
seems like to me. It's not that hard to see. Like, oh, we're
gonna do glass on the back glass on the front glass all around.
It's gonna be beautiful glass. Just going to be fabulous. First
thing I'd like to point out, have you seen any journalist
discuss or ask my God ask Apple, how fragile they are. And you
know, if you drop it does the front end the back crack? If you
put a
said said very clearly, I've watched the whole presentation
said very clearly that it's rugged. It's not going to crack.
Rugged and what's wrong with you and rugged?
Rugged,
alright, fine. It's strongest glass they've ever used.
That's great. Okay, that you don't think you've ever had an
iPhone. But believe me, I personally have at least cracked
three or four screens. Right now anyway, we'll even work properly
with without the the touch ID with a case we able to hit the
side perfectly enough. And the reason why they went with this
face ID is because they engineering and design couldn't
work it out to put the touch sensor through this glass that
they the best hardest glass rugged they've ever had. So they
had to come up with a different way to unlock your phone. And I
think it's so dumb. I mean, now, okay, I'm driving, I don't do
this. But I'm, I'm driving, and I want to text somebody. Now I
used to be able to just, you know, just put my thumb on the
phone and
open it, you're driving and you want to text I'm saying
I don't do this. But drive on the road. And you see this all
the time people are texting. Unfortunate. So now they have to
put the phone up in front of their face. Or look down, give
it attention, avert your eyes from the road to unlock is
dangerous.
Does anybody but me think that maybe this is a way to collect
the 3d because it just a 3d photo does not just your face,
but they would it because it showed it on the screen. It
shows that that final capture the final image capture is like
a head then they move it around in 3d. So it's like a 3d head
when you do this when you first get your first picture of
yourself. And that this is just a collection of 3d images of
everybody's face that owns one of these devices that should be
it's probably sitting there in the in the files at the NSA in
Utah.
Well, you know the claim was it's in the Secure Enclave and
everyone was kind of happy with that. Regarding the touch ID the
same thing with your fingerprints. They're not
actually stored on the cloud anywhere so they claim I have no
reason to not believe them.
Well, I might be but that's beside the point of this someday
in the future and very few companies stay intact their
entire life that somebody buys the company or the they merge
with somebody else. And then they have a different attitude
about things.
Yeah, that could be absolutely. But the idea of the Secure
Enclave is even Apple can't open it up. That's the idea
of Oh, sure.
We we learned that from the from the San Bernardino terrorist
attack but you know, you're in a meeting Do you just want to
check your phone or send a message real quick you have to
avert your eyes you can't do any your take you have to make an
specific action now with your eyes and your focus to unlock
your phone I can just see the show it is very fast I can see
it but I can see many scenarios where that's just it's it's like
the elevators here oh it's so cool the elevators you know you
but they've added five steps you know the interface for the
elevator was easy getting press the button get off on the floor
when you hear the ding see your number now it's scan your card
select your level grouping select your level. Remember
which elevator is coming getting that elevator?
Yes, I don't like that elevator system either.
But I just think Apple is completely crippled dead. They
have nothing at short Apple, I
guess. No, not yet. Yeah. And I might as well
be you'll be you'll be a miserable person. If you try to
short apple at the moment. You will I was watching the show at
the smart money should have done. Yeah, I do a report we can
play it all right. It just should have shorted apple or a
should have shorted orange juice futures. Oh, what was I
thinking?
Orange juice futures? Hold on.
Yeah, I got here I get what's the what's the aroma? Yes,
got it. But hork is with the relief effort. Thanks, Manuel.
Most years, Florida supplies about half of America's orange
juice. But Irma wiped out much of this year's crop in just a
few hours. It's another body blow for farmers who have
battled a devastating crop disease for years. Here's Carter
Evans.
We're down about a foot from where we were earlier this
morning.
More than 60% of Paul metters crop is either in the water or
in the dirt. 1000s of trees were ripped out of the ground by
hurricane Irma's, blistering winds, and it's not salvageable
either.
Not any part of it. This would normally would not be harvested
until April or May,
his crop was destined to become orange juice. But now with much
of it floating in three feet of floodwater, it looks more like
an orange soup.
As you can see by the amount of fruit on the ground, this is
more than an average crop. banner year it was a better
year. If we had delivered this crop in we probably would have
been back in the black for the first time a very long time.
But all that fruit made these trees top heavy pushovers for
Irma and trees left in the water for more than three days could
also rot or die matters losses could be up to $9 million. And
he's not the only one. We know the 125,000 acres of citrus
groves in this area. What percentage of those crops do you
think was damaged? Oh, every acre of that 125,000 acre cookie
McAvoy is an agriculture expert with the University of Florida
lost it all the holes Florida, South Florida citrus.
You know, that's that's, that's what good, good traders do. They
think about stuff like that? You know, we were thinking about the
people stupid.
And he says it was a bumper crop on the way then means that he
would have been depressed. Yeah, in terms of the futures. So you
would have been paid out like a bandit, if you had spotted this
early enough and taken some action. But, of course, that
didn't happen.
There was a big telefon although I'm trying to find the ratings.
I don't think the ratings were very good. This was the big
telethon on Tuesday night. It was it was I saw part of it.
Yeah, I have the opening. The opening was Stevie Stevie Wonder
on the on the keyboards.
We've come together today. To love on the people that have
been devastated by the hurricanes. When love goes into
action, in Preferences, no color of skin, no ethnicity. No
religious beliefs, no sexual preferences, and no political
persuasions. It just loves as we should begin to love and value
our planet and anyone who believes that there's no such
thing as global warming. Yeah. Oh, must be blind. Or
unintelligent. Lord, please save us all.
Man, we're all going to die. They raised $14 million during
the one hour show of which 5 million came from Apple the
Albertson and murk, the millions that sevens I guess they really
only raised about seven or $8 million. And everybody turned
out, I can't find ratings numbers, I have a feeling that
it was very low, lowly rated. I don't think anyone cares. It
wasn't promoted. It was poorly promoted. I heard it from like,
one someone mentioned it, but I didn't see any ads. You know, it
seemed kind of like, oh, yeah, we got to do our benefit. Let's
go and hang out with everybody.
I mean, it's just a drinking club.
I mean, they could have all just pitched in some money that would
have raised more, I don't think people cared. And there's a lot
of issues with with just donating. And I finally got
someone of authority. Regarding my favorite organization, is
this is the this is Dave Martin, representative for Houston. He's
in a meeting as a council meeting with the mayor of with
the mayor of Houston. He's a representative for Texas. I'm
sorry, he's in the meeting with the mayor from Houston. And
here's what he said at the end of his little meeting those
folks
in San Antonio that are doing a great job. Now my last rant will
be on the red lost, I'm sorry, the Red Cross. Because the Red
Cross, if anybody wants to donate to the Red Cross, please
call me I beg you not to send them a penny. They are the most
inept, on organized organization that I've ever experienced. I've
been in Kingwood fighting this thing, and we have not seen one
person, not a single person from the red lost. Yet every time I
turn on the TV, they're receiving multi multi hundreds
of millions of dollars. What are you guys doing with it? How many
contractors you're helping us with? So to this day, many days
after the hurricane hit, I have not seen a single person in
Kingwood and clear like that's a representative of the Red Cross.
You know who opened our shelters? We did you know who
sent water and supplies for blank. And we did. People didn't
have cots, we got them blankets, we didn't get a darn thing from
the read. So if anybody wants to send them money, don't waste
your time. Don't waste your money, send it to other causes
you got on Slack. Oh, wow.
Read last like that. I've used it twice. It was funny the first
time but then he spiked it by doing it again.
Yeah, I agree. It's too bad. And so over and over and over. And
it would just been tedious. A lot of
climate change related questions surrounding what happened with
our multi multiple hurricanes and an earthquake which,
according to Beyonce, I didn't get the clip. But that's also
due to climate change. Here's Jim Acosta asking the White
House climate change guy, I forget his name.
What's his name now? Anyway, asking? Well, this,
just a follow up on that when you see three category four
hurricanes, all on the same map at the same time. That's the
thought of
I know, where did Jose go?
Well, Jose is beside the point. That one that hit Mexico and was
never a four.
I think he's I think he's referring to Jose, not Mexico.
No, no, you
said three. So he's talking about read Katrina? Katrina.
No, Harvey, Harvey. Harvey Irma. Jose. There was an earthquake in
Mexico, Jose. Oh, okay. I thought there was an it was an
earthquake, and you're a little confused. Okay, you have it
back.
No, there was a there was a tornado, but it was the one that
was yeah, it's there was one, there was a small hurricane that
hit Mexico, it was a two or three,
I think the jury will disregard your mark.
And just to follow up on that, when you see three category four
hurricanes, all on the same map at the same time, that's the
thought occurred to you. Geez, you know, maybe maybe there is
something to this, this climate change thing and its connection
to power flow.
I think there's something to this climate change thing. And
it seems like there is
a has to be well carried. Well, Cattier Well, Hurricane Cattier.
Okay, gotcha. Gotcha, gotcha.
Oh, that's what hit Mexico. Yeah, it's okay. I know. You're
right. But I think he's referring to the
hurricane caddy and maybe hits Mexico why Jose just misses
something there. There's a Washington Post.
Here's the answer. If there's something to that climate change
thing, and this is the official answer from from the White
House,
I will tell you that we continue to take seriously the climate
change, not the cause of it, but the things that we observe. And
so there's a rising floodwaters I think one inch every 10 years
and tan but things that would require a prudent mitigation
measures and what I said from the podium the other day, and
what President Trump remains committed to, is making sure
that federal dollars aren't used to rebuild things that will be
in harm's way later, or that won't be hardened against the
future predictable floods that we see. And that has to do with
engineering analysis and changing conditions along
eroding shorelines but also inland water and flood control
projects do note that there's a cyclical nature to a lot of
these hurricane seasons. And I think the scientists for their
forecasts on this particular one, they were dead on that this
would be a stronger and more powerful hurricane season with
slightly more than average large storms making landfall in United
States. So we'll have to do a larger trend analysis at a later
date, we can have power down in homes for the coming weeks,
weeks.
Now his answer, which is pretty much well, and we're not denying
climate change, we're just not entirely in agreement with what
causes it if it's made by humans, and what we should do
about it. And I think there is a subtle hijack in progress, one
that I might actually be on board with, and even crazier
coming from John McCain, who I really do not like but I will
say in his in the sunset of his lane, the twilight of his life.
The Democrats love him, the left loves McCain ever since the
brain cancer. Oh, my God, listen to anyone of John McCain. Yes,
for the pleasure of working with him. You said you interviewed
him in 1982. He's such a great guy. Whereas in the past 10
years, they've done nothing but hate him. But he I think that
subtle hijack, and we know McCain, whatever, if there's
money from a complex, whether it's industrial, or maybe it's
the electrical complex, we got to come up with a full name. I
don't put it past him to, to tout the message to get
you to get paid in it for the money. So he
I think the subtle hijack that is in place is okay. Climate
change is happening, and why it's happening. We'll leave that
to the scientists. We're just kind of gloss over that. But we
have some industries, we want to promote
the Republican Party, as you know, generally speaking, acts
as if climate change is not real. There are exceptions you
your daughter, Megan, Republican mayor of Miami. But But
generally speaking, the president, the governor of
Florida, etc. Act as if it's not real, even though the
overwhelming science scientific consensus is that it's real and
it's manmade. Why?
I don't know, because I can't divine their motives. But I know
this, that there is things happening with the climate and
in the world. That is unprecedented. Second of all, we
need to have, in my view, nuclear power as part of the
answer. It's the
they drafted John McCain.
Really, they finally got smart, somebody
that's really good. So he's gonna go on about nuclear power,
which is the first I've really heard someone come out recently
and say, Hey, this is this is this is truly renewable energy.
Now he lives in Arizona, which he'll refer to so anyway, it's a
lot of subsidies forever
says it's renewable because it's not renewable.
Yeah, the new reactors are,
it's not, it's not fully renewable. It's just a little
bit taken out and they recycle, they can recycle it to a point
but you can't do it for infinity.
Agreed. Just like you can't take the sunlight you're already used
and use it over again. So you know. Yes,
to me a renewable energy if you want to really go for renewable
energy to me, the best kind of or the most renewable of all
energy to me, is trees. We should burn wood. They always
grow back. And they renew the forces renew you have replant
trees, a barbarous or we should be just a wood burning economy
that's fully renewable.
And as we know that you can drive your car on wood burning
fuel, no problem. There's plenty of people who do it. We've
talked about this before. The people who have the wood chip
burner that's yeah, cars used to run on wood chips.
You could well during World War Two apparently there's a lot of
makeshift. Yeah. Craziness done to get to good internal
combustion engines that don't need much.
Yeah, just a little bit of something explosive. And it'll
work. Yeah, the woodchips thing is really fantastic. You should
look it up anyway. But he's also going to give out a little shout
out to the subsidies from the from the solar companies
nuclear power as part of the answer. It's the cleanest,
cheapest, in many ways, source of power. My friends in the
environmental community refuse to make that part of the
equation. I'm not saying it is that quickly, but I'm saying
it's got to be part of it because they're basically anti
nuclear nice spun off a little bit there. But we have to
understand that the climate may be changing, and we can take
common sense measures do not harm the American people in our
economy. In fact, solar and other technologies make it
cheaper for energy for many of the American people, including a
state like mine, where we have lots of sunshine. So I think
it's time for us to sit down again.
Throw that in there. I think I think there's a hijack in
progress because everybody knows when you have a movement like
this, the whole idea is it's a money making opportunity. Al
Gore sees it, that he's he's raking it in with what he does.
solar companies subsidize Tesla subsidized by the way, people in
Houston, and Miami, and Florida, South Florida still have no
power. That could be out for weeks. It's gonna be great with
your Tesla. Which we didn't even talk about how they extended the
battery rain,
I found that to be peculiar. Nobody's really discussing it in
any detail or and test has never really explained this. But if
they're, you can't do what they did was against the laws of
physics. Okay, if it if, indeed, the batteries were performing at
maximal output. So I have to assume that they've got these
things geared down?
Yes. It has been explained.
Yeah. Well, hey, what's the explanation Give it to me,
the explanation is the you can buy a cheaper Tesla, because it
has the I think it's the 60 kilowatt hour battery, or
battery power, I should say, versus 75. And well, while
people were probably thinking, Oh, I have a smaller battery,
because it cost several $1,000 to upgrade. They actually were
giving you a crippled output battery. And then if you pay the
extra VIG, that it's like unlocking a feature in a game
would that's really the conversation that needs to be
had, who owns your car? And if they can increase your range,
can they also decrease it? Say they got to a national security
letter or other court order? Can I just stop it?
I would think so. If parently. Yes.
What if someone that you know, they're moving all of the drunk
driver profiles to the cloud? Mm hmm.
But if it's hacked, yeah.
I mean, this this varies, that
all I see is troubling. troubling. I agree. I see. I
totally
agree. It's just trouble, man. And nobody
is pointing it out. I mean, nobody's you know, they say,
well, that's interesting. Oh, that's cool. Cool that Oh,
that's cool. That's cool. They could do that. That's cool. And
that's noticing that, you know, this reminds me there's a couple
of hard disk companies that have done this in the past, we in the
days when the hard disk weren't as quite as well made. And they
would do test them and they say, and you're making a batch of 30
Mega, or something like 100 megabyte drives, not even
gigabyte. And they'd be making these things that come in at you
know, off spec. And they would you'd go back with all the off
spec ones and say, Well, what can we how much can we get out
of these? Well, I think I think by blocking off most of these
bad sectors we can get, we can get 40 megabytes, okay, well,
Psalm is 40 megabyte drives. And those guys you know, same thing
with chips too many of them are so you know, they can't meet
spec, even though some of them probably could. And so you have
all these guys you know, boosting them or some sleaze
balls, grabbing the 40 megabyte drives and then reformatting for
100 megabytes selling them as 100 megabytes even though
they've they fall apart. I mean, this whole thing is an old
Silicon Valley trick trick that is really needs to be busted out
is Hey, what are you selling me this stuff is, in fact, the
originator of this according to release historically, I think
began with the IBM belt
drive printer. Oh, this is good history.
They had a printer that they used to make and use it has so
many lines you know there's a line per bank and print a line
in June to June of this year, the paper with the holes on the
side. And they decided to come up with an upgraded version of
the thing and all the upgrade was was a technician coming on
and changing the one of the gears in there so it just ran
twice as fast. And what same printer cool. And this is why
you're paying more for what you you already bought this thing.
Well, people, John people who find the whole thing to be just
demoralizing.
Yeah, and I've got a I've got a little hut in the woods with
Professor Ted you can join if, if you because it's really it's
it's yeah, it's in the Smithsonian. Yeah, yeah. It's,
it's people really don't I just see it. So clearly. I see all
the problems coming down the pike. You can you And the main
thing is, once you're it already may be this way with Tesla
owners once you are signing a EULA, an end user license
agreement for your car which you purchase. It'll just be like
music or books. No, I bought a book as a teenager, I want you
to read this book, I have to physically hand her my Kindle.
You know, I don't own that book. But I can do with it. Whatever I
want. And I have the same with the car, you can't really do
much to it, you probably can't
see the day when you can't even sell it.
Oh, without going through the official channels? Yeah, you're
right.
And especially with what you say is true, they can just do stuff
remotely. And so if you sold a car privately, well, they appear
to be able to turn everything on and off. Just turn it off demote
cars that you didn't go through channels. I mean, we already
have Virtus, right, clearly here in the EULA, you gotta go
through us to sell the car, stop your
car, or just make it maybe, well, you know, he was arrested
once for DUI. Tesla, we have now determined that you should
geofence his vehicle, it can't go in certain areas, or maybe
limit the top speed. I mean, there's a lot of things that
could be done. Yeah. And testing
will be done, by the way. Yeah. And Tesla's and, of course, I've
always thought that this smog bull crap, and especially in
California, where you take your car, and you know, at some
point, there'll be downloading your computer from the car, and
finding out where you broke the speed limits and where you were
when you did it, because they have GPS and most of the new
cars, and they can just see, well, you were here, you were in
San Diego on this street. And you went 40. And it's a 25 zone,
you know, Here's your ticket.
Dom You, dum dum you?
And I'd be honest about it. I don't see why they're not doing
that. Now. I think people might be up in arms, or they do it
now. Or it might hurt. Yeah, I think they have to wait, here's
what you have to do. If you're looking at this from a big
picture. You have to wait for all the old cars to get off the
road. Because once they start doing this people gonna say,
Well, hell, I'm going to buy this 10 year old car rather than
this new car, right?
But yes, but this is already being taken care of. You see it
in Europe now where diesel cars and trucks older than I think
1987 are no longer allowed in the cities. You can't drive into
the city with an older car if it's a diesel. This will happen
everywhere.
Yeah, some version of it. Yeah.
Hey, that's a nice bleak outlook.
Well, it's a bleak day.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage to say in
the morning to you John C, where the C stands for Cancun
hurricane Devaraj
back in the morning you miss random curry in the morning all
ships and sea boots on the ground feet in the air
subsequently neighbors night. nights out there.
In the morning everybody in the chat room? No agenda stream.com
where we do the show live every Thursday and Sunday morning at
9am Pacific Standard Time or daylight time. And also in the
morning to nick the rat. He got it he did it again. He brought
us the artwork for episode nine or six three titled born this
way.
Oh, I have to play something for you. little snippet. This will
be an end of show song
you asked for
for
the call Bo
that's the algo born gay
which is really funny.
It sounds funny already. It's
it's in regard to the algos being able to determine if
you're gay or not. So this was put an egg on it because the egg
is you know there's destroying eggs all over Europe because
they're poison and egg on the coffin. Yeah, so be that put an
egg on my dead body. And he did that in the grave. Good work, no
agenda. Our generator.com is where you can upload your art.
We check it right after we're done recording the live show.
And this this one I think stood out above all else and we just
went yeah, that's the one.
So let's think a few people for being executive producers and
Associate Executive producers for the show. 964 Jonathan
Calvert 606 $6 666 Did Sutton Marga the demon from Washington
DC appropriately enough? I would like to contribute this donation
of 666 the devil devils dollars as a means of showing my support
to the production of the best podcasts in the multiverse. I
can't qualify how important the how important no agenda is when
you are mired in dimensional mess Agnes as I am in DC No
kidding. The department building where I live has no children but
plenty of dogs.
The new style dogs is the new children.
Yes dogs is the new children. This weekend promises that
conflicting simultaneous March of Trump supporters and Juggalos
on the National Mall. A recent Rolling Stone article up we
should look up Juggalo recent Rolling Stone article described
thus a viral cage match style flyer suggest them all will
witness the battle I'm sorry, which is okay. A viral cage
match style flyer suggested the mall Okay, same thing I'm sorry
I'm confused. I'm not my cold read. It's sucks today. Yeah,
we're just a battle of the Juggalos versus Nazis with the
police's special guests. Finally, I would just like to
especially thank Adam for no agenda social.com which is the
only social media platform worth a beanie coin.
Two things. One, I absolutely agree no agenda social.com is
great. That open registration right now. You guys will close
it up at a certain point it's costing me hundreds of dollars a
month by the way in storage is like running Twitter or running
your own Twitter is not cheap. But it's a personal experiment.
I really like it. I think it's very it's very interesting for
so many reasons, but give it a shot now the beanie coin I did
have a meeting with the guys who want to do a beanie coin for us.
Although the timing seems to navigate to so the timing is a
little crappy right now. You know with China shutting down
and you know Bitcoin tanking?
Yeah, we'll do they'll come back
they wanted they wanted us to pay for it. Yeah, no, yeah. I
don't know about that.

shout outs.
Got a cool note. We knew we were wondering if people discuss us
in the deep state.
Is this a good note? Good note.
Yeah, from producer Jim gents. On the heels of my q3 donation,
I wanted to confirm your supposition that listeners of
the show include many diverse actors operating directly and on
the periphery of governments and the deep state. And to my
knowledge, the Indus military industrial complex. I learned
about the show from a group of people associated with the
business of global arms sales think General Dynamics, et
cetera. These guys listen to the show to get a gauge of how much
the M five M is aware and reporting on global weapons
contracts. Which deals are being reported on and the angle the
stories take. I think it's also about ego with them. Yeah, of
course. I imagine them sitting around the water cooler. Hey,
fellas, my deal last month with seven skids of the 105
millimeter long range tank rounds are sold to the Saudis.
Well, boom. Got coverage on no agenda heylia I like that. Yes,
we we keep up on it. And you guys should send us more info.
Yeah, we need more info on the latest sales so we can talk
about it. We're happy to talk about your sales. We're number
one.
Talk about sales, sales sales report from the Middle East. Go
ahead,
well, we have 32 prospects
can just go on forever.
You know, just saying back to the, to the hurricanes for a
moment. Democracy Now had some wunderkind on and this is
somebody like, like a very young PhD from Berkeley, who I think
graduated, you know, joining a 16 or something. And let me say
this is the first report here. And it ties in with something
that we identified a couple of weeks ago, which was the
extinction tattoo. You remember that the kids are getting ugly.
It's like a big X. And it's a tattoo that shows you you
understand that the sixth mass extinction is on the way and
we're all gonna die.
We're all gonna die. Yeah, as the United States continues to
deal with unprecedented floods and hurricanes, a new study has
revealed climate change is also driving the mass extinction of
parasites that are critical to natural ecosystems and could add
to the planet six great mass extinction event that's
currently underway.
Now is this effect is this fact that the great six great mass
extinction event is currently underway?
Well, listen, asteroid just hit the planet. I don't think so.
The report in the journal Science Advances, warns that
about third of all parasite species could go extinct by
2070. due to human activity, the loss of species of lice, fleas
and worms could have profound ripple effects on the
environment and might pave the way for new parasites to
colonize humans and other animals with disastrous health
outcomes. For more, we're joined by Colin Carlson, lead author of
a report published last week, which reveal climate change is
driving the mass extinction of parasites that are critical to
natural ecosystems. He's a PhD candidate in environmental
science, Policy and Management at the University of Carroll of
California, Berkeley.
So you want to hear this kid? Want to hear yes,
no. Cal Berkeley? Because that degree is not another
cataloguing issue or you. Management is something that
someone in policy,
it's probably no, it's a, it's a climate change policy division.
It's communicating climate change that every university has
Berkeley, unbeknownst to a lot of people. But whatever goes
there, you can actually get a you can you can design a degree.
Now really? Can you get a degree in degree designing?
Yeah. You could if you if you actually get a put a curriculum
together, it
takes a little work, how about podcasting?
You could probably get a degree in podcasting, could I
create a degree in podcasting and be the one who hands them
out?
No, oh. Now, you know, you're gonna get the you don't get the
handout stuff. Not me slave.
Let's listen to this kid, Colin Carlson, lead researcher of the
parasite extinction report.
So I think the the key thing that we need to get out there is
that there's a lot of things about climate change, we still
don't know, oh, we spent a lot of time in the last 1520 years
focusing on the extinction of big charismatic wildlife. And
we've thought a little bit about how that might impact their
parasites. But the direct impacts of climate change on
parasites haven't been as well studied. So our our research
comes out and sort of does this global survey and really thinks
through okay, how good or bad could climate change be for
parasites? And it turns out, you know, this, there's
weeks go by I don't think about that. I wonder, How will climate
change affect parasites,
parasites follow the same logic most species do a handful do a
little bit better in a changing climate, and the vast majority
actually do a lot worse, they lose a lot of habitat, they lose
their hosts, they face very high extinction rates. So I think one
of the really cool things about parasites is that we have
undervalued them for decades. And that means that when it
turns out they actually serve important roles and ecosystems,
it's all the more surprising. Parasites are a huge part of
what holds ecosystems together. They can be the majority of
biomass in an ecosystem. They can be 80% of the links in a
food web. Um, control wildlife populations, they keep
populations down just like predators do. And just like
predators in the 18th and 19th century when we were eradicating
them. Parasites are obviously a hard sell. But it turns out they
play this important regulatory role. And what we think could
happen in a changing climate is, with these very high extinction
rates, the loss of that stabilizing role could produce
opportunities for new patterns of wildlife and human disease
that are genuinely concerning. Now, here's
my question. Isn't that just the normal course of things evade?
You know, parasites come parasites go? You get new isn't
that just evolution, which I'm sure he believes in?
I wonder what kind of women he attracts?
The kid he's like 18, or 19. Give him a break. He's super
genius.
But still, now, if this was on a network, I think it was just a
promotion for young Sheldon, which promises to be the hot new
show on CBS.
They've never really milk in that show, aren't they? They'll
do anything they can.
Well, if you look at the lineup, because I've watched the whole
lineup of all this stuff coming in on CBS. I think they're all
dogs except for that show. And that shows doomed because it's
got a child actor and so he can, you know, two or three years
older is the show is wrecked, but Okay, I'm sorry. Okay,
sorry. I
went back to parasites. Yes. So there's just a lot in here.
There's the the sixth mass extinction, which is currently
underway, we're all dying. It's mass extinction. And then
there's I think gets we got to save the parasites. Now. We're
doing it to say we need a bumper sticker. Yes. Save the ticks.
You can it's multifunctional. I can use it for my Tourette's
too. And I can use Oh, yes. Save the ticks. But, but it seems
really misguided. It seems misguided. You know, why? Well,
because this is evolution that he said himself. You know, the
assignment was a sudden go Yeah, but maybe Oh, we have to be
careful about that. Or we have to donate
new things. You have to come around to kill us. This is all
what is this? That's harem. Scarem approach to life. Send
money to the Red Cross. You send me a show notes link which I
thought it'd be good to talk about anyway about Myanmar the
conflict currently. Yeah, I
have a couple of clips.
By the way. We should make a I would like to determine in our
style guide we just call it Burma.
Yeah, well, we could call it Burma is Myanmar thing
is bullcrap. Well, Burma,
okay, Burma there well, they got all hell break loose. But when
you read that article, which is which is the moment you click on
that and give me the title of that, so wiki page entry, but
it's not Burma. It's
Myanmar. It says calm internal conflict in Myanmar.
Yeah, internal conflict in Myanmar. I would recommend
anyone who's interested in this topic, go read that entry
because it's outstanding history. And this has been going
on apparently and
please look at that do it if only to look at the map. So you
understand where Burma Myanmar is. So you understand why it's
of great importance to a lot of people.
So let's play the clip and what's the me and Mark clip?
One?
A we begin the day with a lot of outrage at the United Nations
and that is about it. On Wednesday, the UN addressed what
is now the world's latest refugee crisis more than 400,000
Rohingya have fled their homes in Myanmar in the last month.
The UN says the Muslim minority is a target of ethnic cleansing
by me and Mars military. But Myanmar leader and Nobel Peace
laureate Aung San su chi says her country is in a battle
against Rohingya militants groups that she called
Yeah, let's just stop there right there about her being a
leader.
They call her the de facto leader is banned from polling
office
and she's the Nobel Prize winner. We might want to point
your
prize but she's the one that was locked up for a long time. And
Hillary really went visited her
Yeah, because we want to control the area to be next to China,
obviously.
And this Rohingya operation, which has never been recognized
as an ethnic group, and they refuse to really assimilate it
seems, has been causing trouble and so they've rousted them just
get out but they've done well they're not only they're killing
me ethnic cleansing to me means killing people but they were I
mean, they've killed so
kill but they're killing people and then the rest are leaving
like shit.
Their lead they most of them are leaving so they have a couple of
100,000 moving into the next door neighbor which is
Bangladesh, which is a Muslim country. And these people are
Muslims and you'd think they take them in but No, they're
actually get out of here there say well you can stay here for
now but you're not you know, you're like a guest in the house
you're gonna have to get out of here eventually. And so this
these guys are stuck in the middle. It's if you read that
entry in the Wikipedia you see that this is this country is a
is a mess period. Yeah. And you read it's probably one of these
news articles why you gotta get cover this at all. This is one
of those news items that you go oh, man, whatever.
I don't know where it is. Okay, we'll cover
it a little bit. Yeah. But read that piece anyway. Continue.
Yeah, the Muslim minority is a target of ethnic cleansing by me
and Mars military. But me and Maher leader and Nobel Peace
laureate Aung San su chi, says her country is in a battle
against Rohingya militants groups that she calls Oh, yeah.
But the evidence that has been gathered in just the past few
weeks, it suggests that there is much more here than a military
campaign against terror for Hindus have been fleeing Rakhine
State in Myanmar heading north into neighboring Bangladesh, as
you see right there. The prime minister of Bangladesh today
criticized both Rohingya militants and Myanmar's
military, but said the state should take back its people and
stop killing the innocent. Human Rights Watch. It says that
satellite images over me and more confirm claims that entire
villages have been wiped out. I want you to look at this image
it shows a township in Rakhine State. Now it was taken on the
30th of January 2014. About 80% of the people who lived here
were hinges now fast forward an image of the same township from
earlier this month. You see right there a blackened hole,
which Human Rights Watch says proves that entire Rohingya
settlements are being destroyed.
Homes reduced to ashes. This video shot by a refugee shows
what many of Myanmar's Rohingya Muslims are leaving behind the
UNL says around 370,000 of them have fled to neighboring
Bangladesh in the last month.
Okay, I've thought about this before in other clips all
wait. Yeah, play the other clip and give me your thoughts.
Myanmar refuses to recognize the Rohingya as citizens in
Bangladesh, people have been demonstrating to protest
Myanmar's treatment of the Muslim minority. Germany has
stopped several aid projects to the country. And the US has
criticized Myanmar's security forces saying they're not
protecting civilians. The protesters are putting pressure
on Ansan Suchi, the Nobel Prize laureate who is Nomi I must de
facto leader. Critics say she has failed to defend the
Rohingya minority.
She grew up rich by the way would nannies and yeah, she's
she's her images was very carefully crafted. Here's what
I'm what I'm hearing now. Burma is very important to anyone
who's interested in China. Its you know, its borders as a huge
border on China. And also borders on Bhutan, which is
interesting, the Chinese are there, but I think the military,
our military, were number one foam finger. We'd love to be
there. Pretty sure intelligence agencies would love to be there.
And but I think having a military presence is what we'd
like to go for. But maybe it can't be us. Here's what I'm
hearing. Clinton, she was up there. They're talking about de
escalation. What's happening here to me is the same about
just say the playbook is Bosnia Herzegovina, Yugoslavia, sending
the blue helmets which we control. And then ultimately, we
solve it all by firing an ICBM. Which is exactly what we did in
Yugoslavia. And we killed a whole bunch of Muslims. And the,
the, the region has been in tatters ever since.
You know, the problem with Burma and I would, why don't take it
as an analogue to Serbia. Herzegovina is, if you look on
that, that article I sent, there are like, 40 of these
minorities. And they're all all in enclaves. It's a very strange
country. It doesn't really, I think it's not even a country.
It just seems like a grouping of a bunch of people that hate each
other in different ways. It's very unusual, but that was that
was my thing. We should just get out.
Wasn't that exists? Yeah. That's what Trump promised promised us
but no matter who's controlling him, whether it's military
intelligence or CIA's, we're not going to get out of anything.
We don't seem to be it. Yes. Well, that's the Whose fault is
this? I think the public voted Trump in because he I think one
of the residents so why They voted Obama in Obama's promising
we're gonna get out of here. We're gonna get out of there
when things don't get worse anymore closed down Gitmo. Yeah,
we're gonna right number one closed on Gitmo, you can take it
to the bank?
Do I still have that one somewhere? The first
Yeah, he's also the bank. There you go. He's gonna take that to
the bank and we're gonna get out of Iraq right away. Take that to
the bank, you get all these things you're gonna take to the
bank? He did none of these things. Right? Get most still in
business. We're still in these countries. And we're loading up
in Afghanistan, because that's another second dimensions.
They're the puppies. Well, yeah, for sure. And so they vote this
guy and they vote Obama and you know, as a peace candidate, and
then he turns the tables and everybody somehow in the
process, the Democrats become kind of war mongers. I don't
know that that ever works. And then they will. Okay. So now the
general public's decides that Trump was also talking about
getting out of here, get out of there, we got to stop doing this
now. And boom, not they voted him in and he does the same
thing. It's another pile of crap.
The machine is very, very powerful. Myanmar, the
way the machine was explained in the clip, we had a few shows ago
with McMaster that McMaster Miley, they headed to the Army
Chief of Staff at the army, gave a lecture in front of the Press
Club, which lasted about I don't know how long it was, it was
short, but we played the whole thing. And he explained the
situation. And that's the situation and it's it's a
mechanism and there's nothing we can do about it. I don't care
who you vote in. The Bernie is not going to do anything.
The Burma is the world's second largest producer of opium. After
Afghanistan, I believe. They account for 25% of entire world
production. Well, there's another good reason to be there
with our military. They're all good reasons to be there.
Yeah, we're the biggest drug dealers in the world.

BBC on this world BBC. BBC I know that's what's so great
about it is finally they got some swing in their step.
There very nice.
We made it what was the end? They lost that thing at the end.
We did it we did it. Yeah, like that. Mater.
I caught a actually someone sent me this link somebody somebody
had a story about it. But as predicted, Philip Morris is now
on their website now. Maybe? Maybe this has been out for a
while. We didn't know about it that our manifesto. How long
will the world's leading cigarette company be in the
cigarette business? We've built the world's most successful
cigarette company and the world's most popular and iconic
brands. Now we've made a dramatic decision. That's where
I need you to cook. Oh, well. Now we've now we've made a
dramatic decision. We will be far more than a leading
cigarette company, we're building PMIs future on smoke
free products that are much better choice than cigarette
smoking. Indeed, our vision for all of us at PMI is that these
products will one day replace cigarettes. Why are we doing
this? Anyway, they're going into the vaping business they're
saying we are future is
vaping vaping. Yep. I thought this was leading into them going
into the marijuana business. No. I'd be I wouldn't be you know,
this is not right. To get anybody excited.
Yeah, vaping is kind of kind of these giant rolling machines.
The Wright brothers rolling and packing and stuffing. This is
their future. They that's what they say.
What are they gonna do with all that gear? Hey, anybody out
there starting a marijuana company, illegal states, killed
by the surplus gear from Philip Morris. giant machines that
roll.
I know. That's fantastic.
Zigzag get on the down the case. Hey, lots
of vandalism. But now the anti Foz and the anti confederates of
the Neo confederates of this. There's tons of stuff happening,
it continues. And, man, I gotta hand it to you. I think it's
maybe it's a year and a half ago that you started talking about
the national anthem being a problem and it would have to go.
And we and you track this very early on all the way now. Now.
Now it's commonplace with athletes to taking the knee in,
in front of the flag when the national anthem is playing. And
now the national the Francis Scott Key monument was spray
painted, racist song. They threw paint all over it. Yeah. And
there's people out there in the M five m talking about how it's
a racist song even I think I saw a guy on Tucker who was saying
that the history of the Star Spangled Banner was it was
written in what is it? 918 2012 1812. But that didn't
become the national anthem until 918 32. I think. And under that,
and that well, what he says is that it was made the national
anthem kind of as a ball spike from the Confederates like the
this is our week, at least we get the anthem here. Something
to that to that effect. And so he's saying that it is a song
that was preliminary just federates and add new said Neo
Confederate Neo. So the Neo refers
to something that came after the Confederacy. That's what it
means new confederates. It wouldn't it be proto
Confederates if you knew what it was using linguistically? Well,
I
didn't bring a clip. So I can't argue that. But I do see it
under fire. And I'm just giving you props. You'd get clipped for
the day but no, there's no no cliff is no clip.
And we have an IQ I did just so they can
know you very good. Let's see we have a statue of St. Yuna. Pero
Sara UniPro Yeah, exactly. UniPro Sara, if they live in
California to know what that is. Yeah, and UniPro says
that that's that if you ever on highway 280 That's that giant
statue of the guy pointing toward the ocean. Yeah,
that was decapitated. Oh, the one over here? I think so. Where
is it?
10. Like sir Montes in Santa Barbara Hillsborough. Santa
Barbara mission. No, no. Okay. It's a different one is a
different one.
The different one. Oh, that's the ones always getting
decapitated. Really? Yeah.
I mean, this has happened before.
It's like a collector's item.
Bring me the head
of UniPro Sarah. Yeah. Oh, that's cool. I
didn't know that. Yeah, he's been decapitated at least twice
that I know of. But apparently he
treated the indigenous peoples very, very well. He was a he was
an aihole Total dairy but he knows everybody and but he was a
saint, which which kind of ties into the anti Christian stuff
that we're detecting within Antifa
he got his sainthood because he was fleeing because he bullcrap
the whole operation. It was only after the fact that people
realize what a jerky was.
Anyway, the executive producer ship for for St. Junipero
Serra's head
UniPro Yeah, that's what I mean. UniPro
clash expected in Richmond Virginia with now these are the
Juggalos Yeah, in Richmond. Yeah, no, this is Confederate
group plan. rally at the Robert E. Lee statue.
I think these are rigged. Well this was his point this isn't to
the report gave Alpha
Durham says they have their eyes on social media chatter his
department trying to be proactive instead of reactive
adding they want to protect citizens from quote, all hell
breaking loose Capitol Police stand guard but Richmond or
Lindenberg says Come next Saturday the history lesson.
Well, I have to be at home that scares me to death. Why?
I don't want to have war. And the thing that happened in
Charlottesville look like the beginning of a war to me. And I
don't want to live someplace where we're having a war with
that that world got over 150 years ago, a NEO
Confederate group from Tennessee planning to protect the statute
rally here on monument Avenue crime insider sources say police
have Intel. That group will attract the opposition in the
form of Antifa and activist group that has made headlines
for acts of violence especially towards the media. Keith Durham
says he can promise a lawful assembly adding that people
living along monument Avenue deserve a peace of mind our
residents
in the city who want to come and assemble and expressed expressed
their First Amendment rights. We don't have problems with them.
If you look at the history, most recent history of these protests
is folks from the outside. It's not our local residents. They
appreciate your city. They love their city, and they have a
right to assemble. But what we don't want people thinking they
have a right to come here and create havoc and then leave
the cheap Durham says No group has applied for a permit. Next
week they will meet with a fan Civic Association for what
stands for now as the unknown.
Should be feisty.
Yeah, I'm beginning to think that these things are completely
staged on both sides and her head is gone. Yeah, exactly. So
Dim Sum Mnuchin his wife by the way, I don't like her. I don't
like his trouble. She's an actress. Yeah, well, yeah. You
know, my rule.
never marry one.
The she's
listen listened to or EQ.
An old rule. Or an artist. She married. I mean, she he married.
I mean, she's beautiful. When you see her gold all dolled up.
Why don't you like that kind
of woman? Yeah, I guess.
Yeah. The beauty. And dingbat. Apparently stupid. Yeah. You
know, bragging about everything she does, you know, you know,
you got a trophy husband, I guess or he is a trophy wife.
You don't know it's which makes it even more weird. But let's
listen to the update on what's going on with
that some prize he is.
Well, he's, he's worth millions. Oh, yeah. That's
if it's all about the money and if you marry for money, you
deserve every penny here.
We turn next meantime to a new controversy for President
Trump's Treasury Secretary Stephen Minuchin. You might
remember the last controversy sparked by this photo his wife
posted on Instagram showing the couple stepping off a government
plane in which he tagged all of her high end designer labels she
was wearing in the photo. Well tonight reports the Treasury
Secretary asked to take a government plane on his overseas
honeymoon. Here's ABC chief investigative correspondent
Brian Ross.
Newly married this past summer multimillionaire Treasury
Secretary Stephen Minuchin formally requested that he and
his new wife Louise regularly seen in designer clothes with
purses at $10,000 Plus be allowed to travel in style in a
government jet on their honeymoon to Europe at an
estimated price of $25,000 an hour. It would have cost
taxpayers several $100,000
can't be expecting
tax and by the way, what kind of plane is he flying? Because you
can do round trip for under $70,000 with a 30 person
capacity aircraft. So you know, talk about your government waste
even though obviously he shouldn't be doing it. But
that's really expensive Staters
several $100,000
They can't be expecting taxpayers to foot the bill for
Hollywood lifestyle.
And after Treasury officials say they raised the issue of how we
would look for a man worth at least $300 million to travel at
taxpayers expense on a personal trip. Mnuchin found another way
to get to Europe on his own dime. In response to an ABC News
question about the honeymoon trip. A Treasury spokesperson
said the secretary needs access to secure communications but the
secretary's office determined it was unnecessary to use military
aircraft when alternatives were found.
You don't need a giant rule book of government requirements. You
can just say to yourself, This is common sense it's wrong
but it was just a few weeks after the one honeymoon that
Mnuchin and his wife did fly on a government jet to Kentucky on
an official trip where among other events, they viewed the
solar eclipse. She famously posted this photo adding
hashtags for items in her expensive outfit. And this
response to critics. Do you think the US government paid for
our honeymoon, our personal travel lol? Have you given more
to the economy than me and my husband Mnuchin. His wife Louise
is an actress appearing in this episode of the CBS show CSI
dressed as Marie Antoinette, the French royal known for saying
I'm starving peasants let them eat.
And Brian Ross with us live today
from this we call Clip of the Day in the news business
Washington.
Brian, I want to go back to what you just reported on those
social media comments. Did Louise Linton actually mean
seriously
she come back. Thanks for that report. You get clipped for the
day man. I can't believe she was dressed as Marie Antoinette
tonight from Washington. Brian, I want to go back to what you
just reported on those social media comments. Did Louise Lynn
actually say do you think the US government paid for our
honeymoon or personal travel lol?
Yes, David. She did and then she later apologized for her
comments. And now the Inspector General's taking a look at the
circumstances surrounding all the secretaries travel on
government aircraft.
Chief investigative correspondent Brian Ross tonight
Brian thank you.
Fun fact. Marie Antoinette who she married to
the the last? What's his name? For 14th I think 16th Louis the
16th
now the shirts I'm pretty sure it's the 16th Do you know that
he created the coop? The glass the coop glass modeled after her
breast with coupe. But you get ice cream man but I think it was
used for champagne. You know coupe like that type of glass.
Oh, the little like the little teeny holes. scoop ice cream?
Yes. That was it the soda parlor
that was he created that modeled after Marie Antoinette's breast.
That sounds like bullcrap. Fun fact.
Fun fact.
Fun fact when bullcrap. Okay, somebody made that story. idea.
I
got it from the former New York banker. I trust him implicitly.
Yeah. Louis the 16th. You're right. The banker? Yeah. source
of all knowledge.
He's been great. Right.
Let's move to Catalonia and keep people up on that little thing
that's going on. I have to have a clip. That clip is from the
last show. We didn't play but at least gets us up to speed
because I have a letter from one of the one of our producers.
Okay.
Spanish authorities have moved to block a long standing push
for independence by the region of Catalonia. The country's
constitutional court has suspended a law passed by the
Catalan parliament that would allow a vote on the issue. The
suspension comes after Spanish Prime Minister Mariana he vowed
to block the independence referendum. He's called the Law
requote Intolerable Acts of disobedience SARAH Yeah, this is
this is coming to a head
and they said now the latest reporters are gonna rest all the
mayors bullet Katelyn area. Yeah. And because they're being
I don't know what they're gonna do. But here's the note I got
from Stephanie. are
now when they have a vote coming up. Yeah.
In the Yeah, in a couple of weeks.
The their their version of Brexit. They want to Brexit out.
Well, yeah, but it's not binding. It doesn't.
But hold on. I just want before you read the no,
this reminds me of your votes and Netherlands.
Well, here's all I have for you is that the EU has stated I
think it was younger, the drunker but everything
everything with him is now in French these days. No clips. He
said late you know what if that happens fine. We will recognize
them but they have to go through the normal EU ascension process
to get into into the Union but we'll recognize them as a as a
separate state. That's what the EU is saying. It's kind of like
hey, Spain figured out
that's not good. You're John anatomy. We don't want to check
out the protests in Barcelona. The video is shocking with the
number of Catalans protesting ahead of the referendum on
succession on October 1, hence when they go vote is
incidentally that the Spanish government has just ruled it as
illegal. And BBC News says numb the number of protesting are
1000s when it is hundreds of 1000s If not close to a million.
By sources in London tell me that the BBC Evening News
virtually ignores the story. Night after night yet spending
all this time on the Muslims in Myanmar story. The Catalan
broadcaster TV three has also been threatened with criminal
prosecution over the coverage of the protests. And Julian Assange
has been tweeting about it for a bunch of clips and videos he's
got apparently if you want to check it out. So this is a big
deal.
It is. And I have a childhood friend who lives in CES, which
is south of Barcelona. And Barcelona, you got to say it the
right way, John, then every time I say it, you think back in
London? Yes, Barcelona and it'd be fair if Barcelona and he'd be
Barcelona, and he hates him. And he's Dutch. But he's what? The
Catalans he hates them. He's again,
he's Dutch. Well, maybe the Dutch don't like the Catalan
but he's been living in South of Barcelona for 1520 years. He's
for all intents and purposes, he's Spanish, the field Spanish
and he really hates him he, you know, I think they consider them
terrorists.
Was what the same situation over in the the other side of the
country in the Basque Country, exactly. A town where they were
going to have a revolution until they started making money. Out
there, there's, there's your solution. Generally, it's a
solution to a lot.
What can we what can we give the? What can we give them that
will help them make money?
I would like to know why he hates them. Are they a holes?
You know, it's it's one of those things. It's cultural. It's
Dutch why why the hate against these groups in Myanmar being
it's the same thing. You could ask the same question. Believe
it or not, people sometimes don't like other groups of
people. Ah, what a revelation.
Yeah, write that down.
You're being snarky with me
now. Okay. That's your that's chant. You want to change it
from that to?
No, I want to thank you for playing that clip. Because it is
a big deal. And very, it is a big, very few people have their
eye on this car.
They're not even covering it here. Now we have the mirror and
Martha and they're not covering anything. And you'd
expect from the News Hour you'd expected maybe from Democracy
Now, but they're just doing the same stuff.
parasites. Yeah. So let's play this then that says we're gonna
stay over there. Let's go to the Prime Minister. Question time.
We love us some Prime Minister question time.
The only problem is more people in worker in poverty than ever.
remain secure. We're relying on tax credits and housing benefit
to make ends meet consumer debt rising by 10% as wages are
falling household savings lower than at any time for the past 50
years. That is a conservative legacy. Mr. Speaker, a young
woman called Aisha wrote to me last week. And she says, and she
says, I have recently graduated from university with a hefty
amount of debt on my head. However she goes on Mr. Speaker
cannot understand why Conservative MPs don't want to
listen to this question. I really can't. However, I will
persist. However, she goes on. I am scared about the futures of
other young people. People have always dreamed of being a nurse
no longer wants to train to become one government in
weathers the border the Lib Dems, traveled tuition fees.
Will the Prime Minister take the opportunity this afternoon to
vote against another Tory hike in student fees?
This was their big their big scandal. This is where people
were out on the streets that were angry about the cost. Is
that what this is about?
No, this is new. No, it was a while ago.
No. But he's this note that
they've been bitching and moaning about this and once they
invented kindling and some of these techniques,
shutter masters.
But they've tripled the fees again.
Yeah. Okay. That's what I was talking about.
Gentlemen, once again, there are a few things about people
circumstances that he has failed to mention things that the
government has done, things that the government has done taking
30 million giving a tax cut to 30 million people. That means
for a basic rate taxpayer 1000 pounds more in their pocket.
That's what that's what sound management of the economy by a
Conservative government delivers. The Right Honourable
gentleman talks. The Right Honourable gentleman talks about
delivering for students. Let's talk about delivery. Let's talk
about promises that are made.
Too much noise on both sides of the chamber is saying Oh Canada
and friendliness
I love that I wish I could ice Oh, that
that was cool
too much noise on both sides of the chamber I say in all candor
and friendliness to the Honourable Member for Brent
Central is in a very animated state. I don't know what you
have for breakfast, but I think I want to steer clear of the
Prime Minister.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Right Honourable gentleman
promised workers that he protects their rights. And on
Monday, he led them down. He promised He promised students
that he would deal with debt and he's led them down
a promise he promised the British people that he would
support trident and he's let them down. And he promised
voters they deliver on Brexit and he's let them down. What
people know is that it's only the conservatives that deliver a
better Britain
I wish we could have
that here. It would be great. You know
if you don't mind just want to ice so that that oral order
thing.
I think I can get it. I
think it's worth it. Delivering. Oh. Oh. Okay. I think I have it
there. And cut. Boom. Paste. Done. Out. Done. Boom. I love
doing this. Okay,
you need a little bit slipped off the fire anymore. Okay. off
the front. The back is fine.
Oh, off the front.
Oh, I think I need a little bit on the backside. If anything.
No the back ends right with order. I think the back is fine.
A little bit more on the front. Okay, but you play the whole
thing. And you hear there's a little bit of noise at front.
Here we go. Oh, yeah, that little blip at the front. I
think
I just increased it. Oh, it needs to go. Yeah. Oh, I thought
you wanted more. I didn't understand.
I said to get a clip it off the front. Off.
Oh, okay. Oh, that's better. Yeah. You think?
Oh, there's a little blip at the end to that probably ready. I
didn't notice before.
Okay, how about this? Oh, perfect. Yeah, there's still a
little glitch in there. But I can't help that. Okay. I think
it's fine. All right, then we'll take that over here. And then we
do this and then we say Export, and I'll do order ISO. And good.
Okay. Thank you for participating in our little
segment here. Okay, now let me save it. Okay, here it is, and
see if it works. Oh, yeah, dynamite. Kinda. Kinda.
Okay, this is clipped. I learned a little bit. It's something I
clipped to. The thing is there's an interesting phenomenon,
because in all government, personas play this clip, too.
And it does a factoid in here that I didn't know. And now that
I know it, it makes it even more unusual what's going on.
Mr. Speaker, the Institute of Fiscal Studies reports that
English graduates have the highest student debt anywhere in
the world. For students are graduating with an average debt
of 57,000 pounds, who is responsible for her party and
the Liberal Democrats. That situation? Mr. Speaker, we are
in the middle of an economic slowdown. The OVR says there is
a growing risk of recession under her watch. growth is
slowing productivity, worsening wages, falling, jobs becoming
more insecure, personal debt increasing, saving levels
falling and homelessness rising all over the country. And it's
forecast that by the end of this Parliament, 5 million children
in this country, the fifth richest country in the world
will be living in poverty. Isn't it true? That not only is our
economy at breaking point, but for many people, it's already
broken as they face up to the poverty imposed by this
government.
Can I just say to the right honorable gentleman Yes, again.
He has failed to mention on student fees. Who was it? Who
introduced tuition? Oh, it was the Labour Party that introduced
tuition fees
Wow. Magic kinda ruined that clip. I dropped that in every
time I don't think it was ruined. I love the clue. What is
the point of the clip? Who cares? What bunch of uses of
each other point is is that which was stepped down by that
order thing. Um, so situation was introduced by labor, not the
Conservatives and I didn't know that
I didn't know it either.
And, of course, the counter to that is like, well, gray, we
introduced it, why didn't you you know, get rid of it once you
got in. But they didn't. Of course, the way all government
works is what we're seeing in this country with Trump. And
you're surprised by this? No, it's just like a reconfirmation.
Now, the only other little tidbit I got interested that if
you didn't notice that throughout his complaining
Corvettes, he kept mentioning to liberal Democrats, which I think
there's three of them in there. I guess they've always cited
sort of started this side with these with the Tories? I don't
know. But this tuition thing is ridiculous. What are the actual
rates now? Well, I don't know. But you're walking out of school
with 60 How
does this work? Isn't it supposed to be you know, we get
free health care free? Free education. Isn't that a huge?
Yes, the free education went by the wayside.
I thought it was a human rights. Human Right.
I don't understand that. I don't understand. And that's the core
issue. That's what they're not talking about. They did have an
important vote. This was the first step in the Brexit process
giving parliament the authority to break away from the laws of
the European Union
the eyes to the right 326 the nose to the left 292
The eyes to the right 326 the nose to the left to under 90 so
the eyes The eyes have a
and there was a last bit that I that caught my eye or my ear.
Oh lock and luck. Yeah.
Did you know me whenever they have a vote, they lock the
doors.
They lock the doors to Parliament whenever they have
the vote. Why?
It's historical. You know, the queen of course is not allowed
in the House of Parliament. I mean, yeah, in the House of
Commons Commons. Yeah, she's allowed in the Lords but not the
commons except beyond her special special. inviter. Yeah,
exactly.
But whenever they whenever historically, whenever they go
to a vote, they lock it down to keep it secure. And then once
the vote is called out, then they unlock it again to keep out
the Pro to keep it on default. Probably. I
don't know. Somebody with gun. Yeah,
you can't be pressured and it's also private then, you know, I
guess. I don't know. It's transparency you know, that kind
of stuff. It's what they're good at. I'm gonna show us move by
donate to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that.
Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
well, let's thank a few people. Before we get to Faraj. Did you

to see. And you get new followers.
Fresh follow you fresh followers fresh meat,
fresh, fresh followers. We're gonna talk about cash for a
moment. Let me see.
Where was it? Yeah, it's here. Sweden. According to this
article from BBC is almost almost a cashless society. They
will be the first ones they are the canary in the coal mine.
They're the guinea pig.
I thought the Netherlands is already I thought the
Netherlands
was on top but apparently not. So only 1% of all payments made
in Sweden last year were made using coins or notes. It'd be
very interesting to see how this plays out for them. But what was
the what was going on the Netherlands? Well, the
Netherlands they're on their way to it. But I think there's a lot
of people still it's a cash is very, very ingrained in Dutch
culture. Where
Why wouldn't it be ingrained in Swedish culture?
I don't know. I don't know. Maybe it's not. Of course it
helps. That is the thing. It's Bjorn. And I think it's Bjorn
from Abba is out there promoting it. I mean, if you're no Vega
says command, you know, cash is dumb. You're all gonna listen to
the Abba guy. At least in Sweden, they do.
The rabbit says goes Yeah.
I should look into this a little bit more to see if there were
any if or if there is anyone currently saying this might not
be a great idea. We should we should keep some. We should keep
some cash around. We do not have cash except cash signs are just
about everywhere. In the Sweden, Stockholm.
We do not accept cash Yeah. Now in our bills in American bills,
it says very clearly on the bill that if you have something to
pay this that you have to be accepted you have to accept cash
that true you legally have this on the bill it says this is
payment for blah blah blah Tinder debts whatever it says
right but you don't you don't have to. I think you do I think
is illegal not to really
you can say i Your money's no good.
But you can say whatever you want, and I'm sure it's not
enforced. But I think it's illegal. I think you have to
take cash. Costco takes cash.
Costco I thought you had to have a special like an American
Express credit card to even become a Costco
American Express to the south. Okay,
I don't I don't think you're right I don't think it's illegal
I'll dive into that but I'm pretty sure it's just saying
this is as good as as this is money is what they're saying
with that not Yeah,
that is money but credit cards not money.
Last and now you get down yeah, the dollar is just a piece of
paper. Sure. The best thing is Bitcoin because that's really
not money. How about that diver? from a high of what 5210 down to
38
Now we've seen you know the thing fluctuate 50 100%
Sometimes right or 100 Foreigner bucks just within within the
year oh four for Hunter Hunter back in December
probably four or 500 bucks you can do in a day. This thing is
so volatile. That's not what you want with money. Yeah, and and
the reason for it is the Chinese government said okay, this is
done we're not going after the the the change the change
makers, and that's the vulnerable vulnerable part of
Bitcoin because it's not actually money is that you still
have to change it back and forth and they're bringing in all the
terrorism rules to basically thwart this make it very
difficult. So it's very difficult to become a change an
exchange so the not just for trading but that's a whole
different problem but the you can change your dollars into
Bitcoin and vice versa. And the Chinese are going after that
now. And the same will happen here. And until you can actually
buy and pay real for real products with Bitcoin I just
don't see your future.
So let's jump to something I looking at my clips. And the
most important clip which is it's completely under covered.
It won't be for long and I want people to consider listening to
this story and then remembering the poop map of San Francisco
San Francisco is gonna happen here. Hepatitis outbreak in San
Diego.
Okay.
Today the city of San Diego started in power washing parts
of downtown and an effort to fight against the hepatitis A
outbreak 16 People have died hundreds are infected. It's
making it the worst outbreak to hit San Diego in decades now
we're hearing the virus can be spread easier than we first
expected NBC sevens Meg into Brizzy and has been covering the
story for us. She's downtown with continuing coverage now
Megan?
Well, Monica and Catherine this virus is extremely contagious.
Doctors today told us that the virus lingers for days so even
touching an infected doorknob or toilet seat can make you sick.
crews began spraying down east village sidewalks today with the
bleach solution is the latest step taken by the city to fight
against the spread of hepatitis A we're probably
going to be doing them every other Monday we're going to see
how that works out at least for the time being
the bleach solution will be used on areas predominantly occupied
by the homeless around marketing 16 down through commercial. Last
week, the county declared a local health emergency after 15
people died and more than 380 people became infected. Leaders
from the county and city knew of the outbreak in March, but there
wasn't much done about it until a few weeks ago.
It sounds like a crazy thing to have on the streets of a first
city.
In addition to power washing, the city and county deployed 40
Hand washing stations around the county. The county has also
vaccinated more than 7000 people at risk, which includes the
homeless and those who work with the homeless. Now doctors are
recommending anyone who works and lives downtown to get
vaccinated to
we just opened our business. So I knew I knew her. She had
interviewed us before and I was like Oh, what's this? And then I
was like,
Laura Johnson is a small business owner downtown who
found out about the outbreak yesterday on Facebook.
I literally had no idea until yesterday, which is kind of
scary.
When now the homeless is the community that's impacted the
most but about 30% of those infected are not homeless. We
went to a clinic today they said that they are noticing an
increase in People go in there and trying to get vaccinated for
Hepatitis A.
Huh? This is so
troubling. very troubling because this is poop on the
street.
And it seems the blame is going is going towards the homeless.
Yes. I'm sorry those experiencing homelessness. Yeah,
you're pooping on the street. Yeah.
This breaks out in San Francisco where they have the poop map
Alicia got a map. This is going to this is going to happen.
Because hepatitis is a bore is wearable has gone through feces.
Is it airborne or just if you touch VCs, we have to touch the
poop.
You have to touch the poop this is what you have in restaurants
when do when hepatitis breaks us because somebody to wash their
hands. That's what that will wash your hands. Wash your
hands, wash your hands right in the bathroom. Because the staff
needs to wash its hands because if you have just touched so
if you give money to a homeless person, that's your risk right
there.
Well, don't let them touch you just get hold of money out and
then drop a stop
touching poop.
Or maybe we can finally bring in those
lupus smeared all over the place. I mean, it's a mess.
Yeah, I mean, this is a no thanks to operations like
Twitter that had him take the public toilets out of the area
in San Francisco downtown Market Street,
which Yeah, they did that because they didn't like the
homeless people and
get rid of the homeless and now the homeless day, you know,
place to poop. So they poop on the street. People step in it.
What's wrong with you all California. This is crazy.
This is gonna be I'm telling you this is the beginning of the end
for a lot of homeless issues. Well, the first thing is we can
tie this breaking out is not a good thing.
The first thing we can do is we can have the Clinton Foundation
come in and give them all a vaccine.
Yeah, be good. Accent won't help.
Well, well, maybe it's something else.
Oh, yeah. Well, is that I know what you mean? Yeah.
Because they do a lot of things with vaccines, the Clinton
Foundation. Damn. This is why the European Union has in their
protocols of the Lisbon Treaty, that they have the right anyone
in any European member state has the right to arrest you if you
have a communicable disease, and you're experiencing
homelessness. I don't know if it's if it's ever used, but they
might be shortly they can arrest you very easily. Damn, this is
me. I was also reading an article about the homelessness
in California think California number one state of homelessness
and really centers around San Francisco. But in the past year,
the data the data shows that they're moving out towards the
suburbs. And also it's so easy in today's world to become
homeless. I mean, it's frightening. You miss one two
paychecks for some reason you miss your rent two three times.
You're done. You got your FICO score is shit. So you can't get
a you can't rent anything you have to pull together first and
last month's rent people get homes very quick. Or maybe
they're living in their car. I mean, it's it's a real problem.
Yes, I would recommend everyone immediately go buy an RV.
I have an Airstream for sale, if anyone's interested.
Anyway, so but of course the vaccine thing is another issue
with it for Hepatitis A whether it's effective vaccine is not
clear to me. There was a vaccine study that came out saying that
if you get a vaccine or there's some evidence that women were
having miscarriages from vaccines, and so CBS came to the
rescue rather quickly to save the day, so they didn't lose any
sponsors by making it look like they were going to do us an
actual story on this problem. But then there turns out that
all the CVS report was was Pooh poohing the story and minimizing
its its impact. So make sure you can get your vaccine because flu
season is coming up.
A new study out this week is raising concerns about the
safety of a certain version of the flu vaccine and a possible
link to miscarriage. Dr. John Lucas here, John that sets off a
lot of alarm bells for people.
Of course it does. And the key word here Anthony is possible
link it's considered more of a hint. It's something that's
worthy of further investigation, but certainly no reason for
panic. Now they studied two seasons from 2010 to 2012. And
they did see more miscarriages in one very specific group,
women who had been vaccinated in two consecutive seasons and had
a miscarriage within 28 days of getting the vaccine. But the
numbers were small on the 17 women at a 485 Women who
miscarried miscarriage is defined as occurring before 20
weeks and in this group, the median age at miscarriage was
seven weeks. Now we spoke today to the CDC and to the authors of
the study and they said this is considered what's called a
signal it needs further investigation but they are not
recommending changing any of the current recommendation what are
the current recommended Issues John Anthony, pregnant women are
at high risk for serious complications from flu. So the
recommendations is to get the flu vaccine in any trimester.
And there have been a lot of extensive studies previously,
finding that the flu vaccine during pregnancy is both safe
and effective.
Dr. John Luke, thanks very much Dr. John
Liu poop. The poop he safe and effective.
I don't know why they don't just say look, 97% of all scientists
agree that that vaccines are very good for you the discussion
over right.
Yeah, over definitely over
for those of you who are blind, and there's a lot of you. And I
appreciate even more what a podcast is to people who can't
see. You can stop sending the emails about service animals.
It's very clear. All of you are very upset, pissed off. And
there's legitimate issues with people with their anxiety
animals or whether they call them therapy therapy animals.
Yeah. And the therapy animal. There's a lot of problems.
I personally thought you were credibly callous with that
report? What really just mean spirited when you just condemned
the fake service animals that people are carrying around with
them so they get cheap airfares.
Well, one of our producers sent me this. He was waiting for a
flight. And the Delta gate announcer says
okay, we're now voting anyone with disabilities or anyone that
needs a little extra time to step forward, please. And he
said
there were five people who walked up and said, We have
therapy cats. Can we get on board now? What Yep, yeah,
that's how far cats Yeah, that's how far and but I need to board
ahead of the line because I have a disability and my therapy cat
proves it.
By having a therapy teddy bear or blanket Tinky blankie blankie
a Bynum blanket
I used to call the Biney a binky a Biney. A blankie. And go
therapy I want to tell you is a real thing. And we joke about
it. But a therapy animal a goat their go to goat yoga dotnet.
I'm telling you go that's what you need. Your service goats
bring in a stinky goat on board. It would be great. So I put it
all God says thank age. Right. Yeah, I presume that we'll be
we'll be seeing some some laws being made pretty soon about
this. Just the early detection service that we bring to you
here the no agenda show.
So Nigel Farage, you know, they get done and we speak I guess
twice a month. I guess everybody gets to speak for a while once a
month or something like that at the end of big parliament,
right? The big the big
you sort of Starfleet Command.
So he's not as good as he used to be? I don't think but he's
still okay. And this is his latest FTD the fuel goes to Mr.
Farage,
Mr. Juncker, that was the most open, honest and truly worrying
speech I've heard in my long years. In this place, the
message is very clear. Brexit has happened full steam ahead.
So new plans, there's to be one powerful president for the whole
of the European Union, a finance minister with fresh powers to as
you say yourself intervene as a when he sees necessary a
stronger European army in the militarized European Union with
a stronger and perhaps more aggressive foreign policy to and
more Europe in every single direction, and all of it to be
done without the consent of the people. You will plan to fight
the next European elections with cross European Pan European
lists funded by the European Union, but not as you said to
fund extremists means what we will find is genuine democratic
parties of opposition will not be able to compete in elections
on the same playing field. It is reminiscent of regimes of old
indeed, the way you're treating Hungary and Poland already must
remind them of living under the Soviet communists, when you
attempt to tell them how they should run their own countries.
All I can say is thank God we're leaving. But you've learned
you've learned nothing from Brexit. If you'd given Cameron
concessions, particularly on immigration, the Brexit vote, I
have to admit would never ever have happened. And yet, the
lesson you'd say If you're going to centralize, you're going to
move on to this new, I think very worrying, undemocratic
union, and you're deluding yourself Mr. Verhofstadt. If you
think that the populist wave, as you define it is over. If these
plans of Mr. Yonkers come to fruition, far from the populous
wave being over, I doubt it's even begun.
He didn't really call anyone out like he usually does.
No, but he got a huge round round of applause and it wasn't
minor. No, no, it wasn't miked, right, Abby, he had a round of
applause. I'm sure he did. But he's pointing out what he
believes is going on. And I think it's terrible. They're
gonna have what you know, they right now they got four
presidents as things are kind of divided. They're gonna good
dish, they looked at this model, this is this sucks. Too many
presidents. So they're going to centralize one guy is going to
be whoever, and then they're going to be the Bernie Sanders.
Somebody a life? This doesn't look good. Yeah,
the people in Europe are lost. I'm almost done with the, the
was it the death of Europe? Or the strange death of Europe, I
think is the title of the book. It's really it's really worth a
read. It really explains this whole history. And you have to,
you have to go back to really understand how it how this
happened. And it's it's just a train that's on the move. It's
irreversible. I don't think that that can ever be stopped.
You probably right? Yeah. He's right, whoever makes that
assertion,
I have to. I have two clips from the BBC just to keep an eye on
what they're doing regarding sexuality, not just on the BBC.
But what's happening in the UK as well. There's now a general
practitioner being probed about her helping parents,
transgender, their children,
I've given four children under the age of 16. Hormones, three
of those were age 15, and one age 12. And it's really
important. It's one of those things that when you're treating
children, it sounds Oh my goodness. But if you were ever
privileged enough to meet those children, and hear their
stories, hear it from their heart, hear it from their
families, their teachers, their friends, what it means to them
to be able to progress through puberty, in line with their
peers, rather than in line with a protocol that says you're not
allowed to start your puberty until you are 16, which is
hellishly late for some, for some children.
I'm really tormented by this. These gender changes,
you don't let children develop naturally, to the point where
they where they get to the point where all or everything's in
line, which is probably around 21. And we don't
know that we don't have enough time to study the ultimate
effects of doing this kind of stuff. I mean, it's almost like
something that and although I'm not against transgender ng chan
transgender people I don't get I really don't give a crap. I
really don't I actually don't care what these parents are
doing to their kids. Do whatever you want. I'm 53. Now I don't
care. But holy crap. It's it's like Mengele in concentration
camp.
Yeah, it's a bunch of experiments on kids. It's all
and it's experiments in the medical establishment is going
along with it. Yeah. Hook line, and sinker, and hook line and
dollar bill, right.
And then there's, this was an interesting little snippet I got
from the BBC. A pedophile
is someone who has a sexual interest in young children. It's
a recognised mental disorder. And it's something that people
don't choose to have. It's a condition in the same way that
someone might have depression or ADHD. A lot of people are able
to manage that condition without acting on it. You talk about it
being a condition, does that mean it's something that can be
cured, then it's something that people can certainly be helped
with? Treatment, in the broadest sense is very important. That
reduces and lowers the risk that they will harm other people as
well. Interesting that, sorry.
That's a good one. Yeah. And the interesting
thing is it's coming from the BBC where it philia was rife and
I'm the first deal is I'm the first person to say that this is
passed down typically abuse. This, you know, if it's really
abusive behavior, that's usually passed down from parent to child
and it is a mental disorder. It's a bit big problem. But then
you have the elites like Jimmy, Jim will fix it, who was going
into morgues you know, and arranging the all kinds of
kiddie parties for for Popular TV and radio presenters and
politicians. That's a whole that's a whole different kind of
evil and sounds a little bit like oh, and everyone who
investigates it dies mysteriously. Then then the
second investigator die.
Yeah. Got 60 years old judges throw it out.
Oops. To kind of interesting that they that they're doing
doing that on the BBC. It's a trend and we'll see where it
leads.
Finally, for me, Judy Gold, you know, her comedian Julie, Judy,
Judy Gold. Is she of any stature?
I never heard of her. Now. She
She looks kind of familiar. Well, she was talking about
what's on the front this great. The Salon talks podcast is
fabulous. Then you know, we got to listen to on salon talks from
salon magazine.
I get guaranteed Yes. Okay, go on.
Well, there's a lot of podcasts we that need to be listened to.
As you know, there's a there's a meme going around right now that
podcasts are overtaking Rush Limbaugh.
Rush Limbaugh made $400 million. That's three
times the entire podcast advertising universe. Now who
wrote this? A new generation of left wing podcasters are
dethroning Rush Limbaugh and right wing talk radio. While I
see a huge future in podcasting, yeah, I don't think so what does
he have 18 million. Now, it can't be that much anymore. He
must have so like 10 or 12 million listeners, which is
incredible by any rating standards today. And that's on a
daily basis. And it doesn't include me with the numbers they
have in here. They're talking that pod save America, which is
the former Obama speech writers, which people are raving over,
you should listen to this. That'd be an I'm gonna start
getting clips from it because it is now the new media. They claim
1.4 million listeners. I don't know how they do it. I don't
know how they counted. I don't know what's true. Apple is
coming with their numbers. So we'll see very soon we'll know.
If you really have that kind of audience. I think that's
overinflated that well, what do you think could it be?
How could it be in a million years?
Well, in a million years of mind, but Oh, yes.
Well, no, in a million years, I doubt podcasting will exist. No,
of course, is not it's no way. Okay. I mean, for one thing you
have to have the audience for podcast tends to be Apple users.
That is what the data shows. Yes, it shows a high ratio,
percentage I iOS is probably 60 to 70% of everybody's listening.
And that's because podcasting evolved from the iPod, hence the
name podcasting. Correct. And so you have a lot of you have a
very Apple centric audience. And so I'd say 60% of the audience
that we have is probably at least, if not an Apple user,
they're your they're an iPhone user, or they were Apple users
that have moved on. But there's that route, the ones that aren't
that that just came straight out of, you know, Android or PC, or
whatever they're using to pick up the podcasts are in the
minority. And it's always been that way. And I don't see that
changing. And they would be generally left leaning because
it's an apple earmark. But the 1 million people listening to
these guys drone on I've heard these podcasts. They're boring.
Trump Hey to cute one liners that aren't funny. They're hard
to listen to. There's no information.
Words. You nailed it. You nailed it. You nailed it.
That's exactly the clip. I have. Stupid one liners nothing of
value Trump hate you nail it. Judy Gold on the salon talks
podcast.
There's an asshole on the third row or, and now it's more like
other some Trump people in the back. They come back with hatred
and prejudice and snowflake and fuck you Obama and you know
Hillary's emails and it's like, shut it shut up. You. There's no
There's no humor in what they do. It's it's, I think it's
taken a lot of comics. I think we were all in shock initially.
And we did the hair jokes and you know, but now because I
don't know about you, but we know everyone's like, Oh, it's
not it can't be that bad. There's Ivanka and Jared and
it's horrible. They're all horrible. But even when you when
you're like I do a joke about about Trump, I know it's shot.
Okay, what that when I look at him in comparison to, you know,
all the other world leaders, you know, when you see him standing
there at a NATO summit, so something you know, and there's,
you know, Merkel McCrone, there's Trudeau, you know,
there's all these world leaders, I look at him and I realized he
is the only human being who could make American Jews want to
move back to Germany.
These are great podcasts, then I apologize to you for cutting off
your ship podcast segment. But that was you know, these people
get paid to do this.
That was years ago. Yeah. You cut that off. Yeah. And I
apologize. I'm, I'm not accepting your apology. I'm glad
you cut it off, because I would be forced to continue it. And
with the result being you'd be the disgusting crap like you
just play
the deck of podcasting is what you'd be. I saved. I saved you
from that.
Did you think it was a bad idea?
But I think I
think the salon podcast is fair game that we can get, but you
know what, there's people always talk their mouth off when
they're on the podcast.
If you do it now you've done this for a while more than I
have, which is listen to all these crazy podcasts and find
somebody saying more than they should because they're just on a
podcast who's gonna who's listening? And then you find
them spilling their guts about something and you have done a
great job of that and you could keep doing that but I don't want
to hear anything else like you just played.
Okay, you got to deal Sorry, I'll never do that again.
Lame. Oh going on and on about their audience and as Comedy
Club will
ever see, you're used to from your background, you're used to
all these comics bitching and moaning that's not something
that the regular the normies as you call them, we don't normals
the normals. We don't release the normies we don't really see
that, you know, yeah,
and you don't need to all right. It's something you really don't
want to say what is the face Baghdad's anything good? Yeah,
that's that we could have played this clip earlier. But this
about the face bag ads. And you know, I think this is the this
is the nonsense that Oh, it's $50,000 worth of ads killed
Hillary. Yeah. She hasn't been bitching about this.
We're learning more about how groups believed to be linked to
Russia used Facebook to meddle in the 2016 election. Jeff
Buggys has more on this.
The language was intended to stir up hate using pictures and
incendiary language. They won't take over our country if we
don't let them in. The group behind the messages called
itself secured borders. But investigators say was part of a
Russian campaign to influence the 2016 election. To that end
secured borders use Facebook's event and invitation tool to
promote an anti immigrant rally in Twin Falls, Idaho, a city
called a center of Refugee Resettlement when he still has
to poop. I love it when he does a report responsible for a huge
upsurge of violence toward American citizens. That was
false and the rally itself never happened in spite of the Russian
campaign.
They were using these new social media sites, which is kind of a
wild wild west mighty rules to influence the election.
Mark Warner is the ranking Democrat on the Senate
Intelligence Committee which is investigating Russian
interference in the election.
I think what we've seen so far from Facebook is only the tip of
the iceberg.
Shut down secured borders. There are other groups including this
one that worked out of Texas. CBS News has learned that
investigators believe there were many more and are scrambling to
identify them. Just last week, Facebook disclosed that an
internal investigation identified about 3000 ads
costing $100,000 containing messages about divisive issues.
Those ads also were linked to Russian internet trolls.
Facebook official says because of federal laws and the ongoing
Russia investigations that company is limited in what it
can say But Senator Warner says the company hasn't been
transparent enough and needs to step up its efforts
I'm giving you this for this clip.
But it is like Jeff for gays. Well, I
do like the poop guy but I don't understand when I was predicting
this was I said this is bubbling under you're gonna hear a lot
about it. Why didn't you say why? Yes, Adam? You're right.
Did you forget you had the clip?
No. I just Yes. Okay. My point of this clip was actually more
of the resized $100,000 whether these these ads they spend
millions and millions of dollars on these campaigns, but somehow
$100,000 spent a billion dollars. Yeah billion. So let's
take a look at that. Also the comments in Facebook is be
there. I think they're getting the brunt of the criticism, like
you pointed out earlier in the show. That's what I was gonna
bring this clip in and I forgot about it. Okay. fake Facebook
says, well, we can't talk about it because there's ongoing
investigation. They said some bull crap at the end where they
wouldn't talk about the reason they don't talk about us. They
don't even know it happened.
No idea. I agree. I agree. But his run
is automatic system is like these native ads just
automatically puts pops these ads here and there. They had
zero influence. I wrote about this in the newsletter, but also
one of these ads,
either I think they're concerned about the following. How about
this for size? Let's say that just it could happen to you know
what, Zuckerberg, we want you to testify, we need to understand
exactly what went on. And where that's open session or not.
Okay. $100,000, it was maybe seen by you know, what could you
please give us your real numbers, please show us what
$100,000 gets. And I think they're afraid to show it.
That's what I think, shit. We can't have people knowing how we
do this. This is the secret sauce. What Google does. Yeah.
And I don't think I don't think that they want that anyone to
know. That's what they
did is bullcrap that there's no effect, and no effect. Because
it'll
turn it'll it'll turn out, it'll turn out that your money is just
no good. Now, they could turn this around and say, we're so
successful, we've through an election with their ads, but
it's not a good
thing to do that. And because then they really would get
called to Congress. And
of course they can. But that's the problem. They have to say,
between a rock and a hard place. Both
our ads are very successful. They make people buy products,
but not if it's Russian ads. No, it doesn't work, then oh, no,
no. So they're gonna have this isn't this what? Yeah, between a
rock and a hard place? You're right. That is, what a conundrum
is a total conundrum, because, you know, they want to brag
about how important it was that over, you know, the winning an
election $100,000 won an election, which is nonsense, but
they'd love to brag about it, because that's what everyone
says, Wow, what if they brag about it, and they get a call
before Congress?
Now, if we were the curry Devora Consulting Group, which we
happen to be? What would we advise? This would be a tough
one, what would we advise them?
Well, this is a really well, I did vote, okay. I would advise
them, if you're going to get into this quagmire. I advise
them to go all in, brag about it. Say we didn't know the
Russians were doing this. But it's obvious that our
effectiveness is there. And that's the way it goes. Go
before Congress and say the same thing. I agree. Go all in i Yes.
Well, I've we're sorry, this happened. We feel really bad
about it. But these ads are so powerful on Facebook, that we
didn't even know they came in because our system is such that
we don't really screen these ads as much I guess we could have.
And you know, it seemed like a legitimate operation. So he put
him in there. And we'd if we'd known this was going on it was
gonna throw the election we would have put some controls in
because we're going to have to need some, but you know, we can
take care of this. This will never happen again. And then you
got to back them off from wanting to do some legislation.
Yeah. And say, you know, this was a mistake on our part for
not having enough controls. We will have more controls. Oh, we
have
adjustments. Here it is. It tell them Zuk Zuk. Just tell them
you've adjusted the algo
Oh, you could that's the way to finish it.
And you know what, ladies and gentlemen, I've adjusted the
algo Oh, okay. Oh, good.
In fact, it can't happen again as be the final words. Yes.
Can't can't happen again. Exactly. The algos are there in
place. We are
under attack by the algos. Ladies and gentlemen. Don't
think it's not true. The Nest actually turned the air
conditioner down at 10am here which I have been doing manually
for three months now. It doesn't by itself.
Oh, after three months of training, fantastic.
I could have trained my servers go to do it for me.
