Yeah, I saw climate change in action last night.
Adam curry, John C. Dvorak. It's
Thursday July 5 2012 times you're getting home nation media
assassination episode four to three. This is no agenda.
Clearly suffering from severe ie D here in camo fo in the capital
of the drone star states. Austin Tejas in the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we still celebrate
Americans independence. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Raekwon. Buzzkill. Happy Fifth of July.
Yes, indeed.
What'd you do yesterday?
Cooked watched fireworks.
Was it just you? Or did you have any of the kids there?
Everybody's
around. Oh, really? And it's nice.
Is it better to do Fourth of July in it in the San Francisco
area, and then it is up in Washington, Washington area?
It depends on the on the year. Generally speaking, I think it's
actually better up there. This year. mimio is up there and I
was down here. So she was gonna go to bed. Right. So not
everyone was away. Apparently in the in the school in the
backyard of the back field of some school. It appeared as if
somebody because fireworks are illegal there. Someone had
bought like $200 million worth of Indian fire. We finally
deconstructed the possibility that there were the surplus at
the Indian tribes didn't sell. Yeah. Okay. And it went on at
least. It was apparently and I was listening to it. Yeah. It
was like 10 times better than the Berkeley and San Francisco
and Oakland fireworks displays combined. Oh, 2030 shells going
off constantly at all at once for two hours.
We had very little here. And actually,
that surprises me.
I'm surprised that they allowed fireworks at all, you know, it
being kind of dry and stuff.
Yeah, it's a problem in general, in general raining in
Washington. So
when General I was thinking, How weird is it that we don't have a
nationwide ban on fireworks? I mean, this is of course, what an
opportunity for terrorists to blow us up. You know, it's like
that makes no sense. Yeah, make
the suggestion. Now. That's for sure.
Makes no sense that they let us do that. I just didn't
understand that at all. Man, well, in the morning, John C.
Dvorak
in the mind you Adam curry in the morning all ships at sea.
Bucha I wonder if our ships at seas are still listening, of
course on the ground subs in the water
and all of our human resources in the chat room. No agenda.
stream.com no agenda. chat.net. Thank you all for joining us on
this day after Independence Day. And they've been all charged up
and ready to go in that chat room keeping up keeping us
honest. As always. Speaking of keeping them honest, I mean,
wow. I'm upset now. Why? Well, for a number of reasons. But you
know, I can't call Anderson Cooper Anderson Cooper anymore.
It's not funny now.
You know, I you know, this is weird when I when he did this,
because I thought he already had done this. And I thought you
were calling him Anderson Cooper because it was funny.
Well, it was funny, but now it's not funny, because now it's
official that he's gay. And now it's like,
it was still fine to me, because I always thought it was
an issue but you're anti homo.
I'm not. I thought he came out of the closet years ago. I what
am I now where did I go wrong on this? Well, the thing
that's that's disturbing about it is and this is the main
report that went around. So you know, of course, what if you
don't know Anderson Cooper is a journalist. He's a Vanderbilt,
actually. So he's when he walks anywhere. If you just look at
the videos he's got for security guys. He's not a very tall man.
I'm not sure how tall he is. Because of course, Wikipedia
doesn't provide that information. But he's not very
tall. Yeah, he
looks at about five he's always
standing. Really? No, I think he's shorter than five, eight, I
think you think Yeah, I think so. When you look at he's got a
big head. He's perfect for TV. And so I guess the daily you
know, he was kind of coerced into it. To me, it seemed like
this whole thing was rather orchestrated. And here's the
key. Here's the key line like,
distraction of the week if Yeah, well, yeah. And no,
here's the key line from the, what comes from the the press
release. And this was what was propagated. So he came out in a
letter to Andrew Sullivan was The Daily Beast. Sullivan, who
is gay and his longtime friend of Cooper's had asked the CNN
anchor for his reaction to a recent Entertainment Weekly
story. Here comes the art of coming out which was in part
about the important have gay celebrities coming out of the
closet to combat America's bullying epidemic. Apparently
there's an epidemic John, what is the definition of an epidemic
by the way?
No, it's not. There's nothing to do with bullying. I can tell you
that
it's an epidemic it is it is rampant. Bullying is an it's an
of course it's go away. Of course, it's it's anti gay,
bullying, no doubt,
epidemic now and a widespread occurrence of an infectious
disease in a community at a particular time.
So bullying is apparently a disease infectious According to
Entertainment Weekly. And here's anyway, which is kind of
important because as of July 1, new law on the books in
California Ay ay ay b 1156. The anti bullying bill from the
California Assembly. This bill as of July 1 2012, would require
that a pupil who has been determined by personnel of
either the school district or residents or the school district
or proposed enrollment, to have been the victim of an act of
bullying as defined, which I'll get to committed by a pupil of
the school district in the residence a lot. Of course, you
will be expelled from school and you will go to jail, or actually
it will be a state run training facility, as it stated here.
Now, what is the definition of bullying amongst others at the
very end of the clause and causing a reasonable pupil to
experience substantial interference with his or her
academic academic performance, or causing a reasonable pupil to
experience substantial interference with his or her
ability to participate in or benefit from the services,
activities or privileges provided by his school? This is
crazy, ladies and gentlemen, this is completely nuts. Because
all you have to do is I can't do my homework if he's interfering
with me. This is just the beginning of the restriction of
the First Amendment. Your right to free speech. We've said it so
many times. But now it's gotten to a whole new level with this
law. And this will be propagated across all 50 states in one form
or the other, I'm sure. But this definition of bullying, which by
the way, is a virus, According to Entertainment Weekly. He's
nuts. John C. Dvorak, you were a constitutional scholar, your
your thoughts on this?
I think, yeah, I think you're correcting your assumptions. And
then we got any thoughts on it? Just this like, I think we've
already nailed this in the beginning. It's an attack on
free speech. And an Abnegation of the old sticks and stones
will never hurt me concept, which apparently has gone by the
wayside sticks and bullying, we're talking about his verbal.
Right and so so they're cranking it up a notch. And both of you
both you and I received this story from one of our producers.
This is from North Texas. And there's a lot in this story.
It's a very short blurb, but wow, it was like very cool, man.
A lot of a lot of messages here. 15 year old boy from North Texas
was shot in the forehead at close ranged that quote, a 15
year old boy from North Texas who was shot in the forehead to
close range had been bullied by another teenager accused in his
killing. Okay. The suspect was 14 when he and another 14 year
old were arrested and charged in the March death of Nahu Martinez
in Wiley about 30 miles north of Dallas. Prosecutors say Martinez
a freshman and a member of the cross country team was shot in
the accused teens bedroom then wrapped in a comforter dropped
off the second story window. Sorry, I'm laughing was crazy.
But the whole thing here was he had sent a note saying well, you
know, I was just kidding. And apparently according to the
story, they were quote buddies, whatever that means. So I guess
the what they're trying to propagate with this story is
yeah, you can stand up to bullies but you really shouldn't
because it could get out of hand. You could kill someone so
you
make this story. Yeah, this story is so artificial. I mean,
we don't even know what any of it and the truth of any of it. I
mean, for one thing, what's he doing in the other in the
bullies bedroom
a year where they were buddies. So there's a little gay thing
there. I think that they're trying to
go and then there was the need of just tossing them out the
window seems rather sketchy. Yeah. And shooting him is
another thing but it expected you know, that's had to make a
mess. And I could have been an accidental shooting kid
apparently was seen around town with a gun and he's an idiot. He
doesn't know how to use it. Yeah. And and then their
bullying thing was questionable. And the guy apologized. I mean,
the whole this story is they tried, I think the Trying to
make something out of the story to to get
don't stand up to bullies, that's what I'm reading? Well,
it's supposed to because you could mess up it could have all
been the joke. And you know, and guns are bad and there's a whole
bunch of stuff in this story. You're telling them to fabricate
a lot of mixed messages. I don't think the story works as a
propaganda tool.
So it's to confirm confused to put too many messages using
too many messages. You hire that? People keep it
simple. Yeah, really. Even we can deconstruct your conflicting
messages a mess. And congratulations, John.
Oh, thank you very much. I do have a clip. You might as well
play it and then we can talk about it.
Okay. I haven't looked at your clips yet. I know what it is.
Are you sure? Oh, here it is. Yes. Yeah, that's the clip. I
was hoping you'd have flags were
flying as Madrid. Welcome to the morning after a night of glory.
And the previous evening's proceedings dominated the
headlines, ranging from never been done before to Spain, take
third crown in a row.
People are euphoric. It's good for us to have faith in this
country.
were nervous about whether our team would do it again. So of
course, we were delighted.
Yeah, the slaves are happy. There's no problem. No economic
issues. Were just partying. And wow, what I mean four to zero.
Could it have been even any more rigged than that? was
ridiculous. I mean, the Italian goalie was just like in the
wrong place all the time. I could have told him up or what
all you need to do is get the goalie on board. And you can win
these games if you Yeah, if the other goal is not on board,
essentially.
So of course, I had called Italy you had called Spain from the
get go. And I think that in the last week there a lot of events
shifted with the whole Euro banking breakthrough. And it
really did shift right back on the Spain. So you call the
correctly and I give you props for that. Good job. Good job.
Can't wait to two years. We have the World Cup. We'll do it
again.
Yeah, and you and I always say that though, the one thing that
I want to kind of credit you for for the basic basic theory of
the of this corruption or what a Brofist here this is not and so
I used your theory to pick the right team you had missed I
think personally had missed it was misinterpreting the the
activities that were that needed a Spain to win and the
activities that needed Italy to win. Yeah. And I, I think you
were I still think when you first picked it up, I thought
you were often
the reason why is because I know that the big piece of the puzzle
in Euro land is Italy. It's the seventh largest economy. And
they were you know, there was a lot of noise about, you know,
the Italian banks and the Italian economy. And I thought
that they would catch up with with that in time for the
finals. And of course, Spain was in the middle of the news. So I
was just, I mean, Italy's all gonna happen. I was just ahead
of it. I use the same formula. I just, I was too ahead of myself.
And at the end of the day, we both picked the final guys, so
that wasn't too bad.
No, it was pretty good. And people still wondering, or we've
had we tried to explain this. A lot of people just think it's
weird that we talk this way. We've picked these things. event
after event. And we'll do it again.
Oh, yeah. Oh, we'll keep doing it for sure.
And I'm not telling people to go wager. No, because
if we do that, then you know, we'll lose that that'll that'll
break the magic. Yeah, I don't think that'll work. I want to
give it in the morning to producers Mike and Jane who
stopped by yesterday. They organized the meet up when we
had the hot pockets 2008 tour. And we bumped into him on
Saturday at the farmers market. So they came over. And I just
gotta say, Jane made a homemade potato salad, which was off the
hook. And Mike makes bread himself, bread maker and he puts
it in he puts Agave in there. What an outstanding taste.
Really phenomenal. And it's nice to have young kids around.
How old are these people?
2829 I look at that right? I'm almost 20 years older.
Hey, kids. You want to jump in the pool? Exactly. When you kid
Yeah, you kids making bread. That's cute.
I think that's exactly the way I wanted to sound I couldn't quite
couldn't quite pull it off. But it was nice because I can see
that. Listening to the show is keeping them healthy. You know,
they're not making themselves sick with all the bullcrap
that's being poured into them.
Oh, yeah. No, I think listening to the show is going to be
beneficial for anybody. Yeah. Unless they did hate it. I mean,
there are people that cannot listen to the show. Yeah,
there's so plugged into the bull crap. Yeah. And they essentially
have soaked it up to the point where the listening to the show
would blow up their personalities, I guess. I don't
know. I'm depressed. I don't I have no idea. I mean, I've
always been skeptical enough. I wouldn't even in when I was at
Cal Berkeley. You know, there used to be a, I think an ironic
bumper sticker that was very popular. That said, question
authority. And this is what I've always thought you should do.
And then curiously, though, when Obama gets in all the same
people that used to have that bumper sticker all lockstep with
Obama, or whatever President Well, Mike
said, Actually, he said something very astute. He said,
You know, I really, and he's a Ron Paul guy, and he's like,
he's got the Ron Paul hat, the bumper sticker, the, you know,
the everything. And he says, I really hope Romney wins, because
then at least, you know, the left will start protesting
again. And we need that point. Yeah. And I thought that was
actually a pretty, it was a good point. Like, yeah, we need
people to get in action again, because it's the same guy. But
now officially, I think I saw the numbers. More people, more
Americans killed in Afghanistan, not even to speak of how many
Afghani civilians or still Iraqis more killed during the
Obama presidency than during the Bush presidency. Yeah, it'll add
up. Yeah, that's off. Yeah. Oh, speaking of which. Kill list not
curry.com. Everybody. Let's take a look. We had our Tuesday. Our
Tuesday meeting the kill kill list meeting. And what did we
do? We picked off five suspects in Yemen, with a drone in the
Sumbawa province, central Yemen, killing five let's see. Yep. All
members of al Qaeda and to others who are traveling with
them. Oh, sorry. Well, they still count as terrorist if
you're traveling with them. And then we had eight in was the
restaurant. Crazy how that happens. Waziristan again John
right there where the where that pipelines come in through
incidents drone missile struck a house in the shower valley where
militants were reported to be hiding in the North Waziristan
tribal region near the Afghan border when we got you didn't
weigh so we put those on the kill list.curry.com now updating
it each entry every single time I add to the kill list and so
far, every single show I've been able to add a new entry to the
kill list so we're doing quite good that's good. Yeah, it's
been
killed everyone.
I you know, there's so many things. So many places to go. I
think I should probably hit you. You know, you were kind of Pooh
poohing the LIBOR rate fixing scandal which is now taking
place. Yeah,
yeah, I was. I think the British the British Parliament's I
watched that whole thing. Three hours watched it, too. I almost
got a clip on it. But I know there was no clip. You got to
clip? No, not from that, particularly because it was
boring. Oh, what yeah, we have a good clip though. From that.
Alright, once you got that meeting, which I thought was a
jealous got my attention, serious discussion about leaving
the EU and what it would take for Britain to do it was being
bantered back and forth between the Prime Minister and both
sides of the aisle. And it's a little clips a little long, but
it's kind of fascinating because there's so matter of fact about
where we could stay in, it's very advantageous to stay in,
but we don't want to do this and we need our own. You know, we
need to get some of our laws back. We shouldn't have Brussels
telling us what to do in a screwed up. And what would we do
if we quit? If we will? Do Is there any you know, it was I
thought it was weird. It was so a matter of fact, a warm
endorsement of Britain's continued presence in Europe.
But does he also agree with me that those who wish to take
Britain out of Europe now have a duty to provide detail as to
what the political and economic costs would be, rather than
vague promises of the alessian fields?
I think my writing frame makes an important point, which is we
need to make sure that the whole debate about our engagement in
Europe is properly informed. I do support our membership. I do
think the single market is vital for us and determining the rules
of that market matter for us. But I think it's important we
add these facts and figures and the balance of competency
competencies review that will be launched shortly will help I
think all parties He's all politicians, all parts of civic
society in Britain to see some of the arguments and some of the
facts and the figures. And I think that will help inform the
debate. This is David Miliband.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Further to that question, I wonder if
there are any circumstances further to his negotiations in
which the prime minister will recommend to the British people
that they should leave the European Union.
As I said, I want to stay in the European Union because of the
reasons I've given but I will always stand up for the British
national interest as I see it, that is the job of being Prime
Minister
is to Peter Lily,
my Right Honourable friend will know that my opposition to
excessive centralization of power in Europe has never been
in doubt. Indeed, the only doubt which my your skepticism has
given rise to was that which John Major cast upon my
paternity will agree with me that what we need is not a
commitment to an in out referendum, but a commitment to
insisting that our partners give us back powers to govern
ourselves, if they want our agreement for them to
subordinate themselves further to centralization in Europe.
You know, I'm pissed now. Because just before the show, my
entire system crashed because of all this bullcrap flash and
Adobe that just seizes up your system. And I was looking. I was
looking for a clip which I had marked in my notes from the
European Parliament. Were just before they did a whole bunch of
votes, which we'll talk about. Barroso stood up and said, Yeah,
hello to our a UK contingent. I'm not and he was waving his
finger at them. Like I really don't like your Prime Minister
talking about leaving the eurozone. This is bullcrap. I
don't want to hear that was really a shut up slave moment.
I'll have to find it for Sunday. But yeah, yeah, I want to hear
that it was and he was waving.
Referring to this specific. Oh, no. Exactly. And I'm
so pissed now. Because I just, I just ran out of time, I had to
reboot the machine. But I'll mark that I'll make sure I get
that I was actually I want to go back to this LIBOR thing.
Because now LIBOR is the London interchange bank overnight rate.
It is the it really sets the interest rates for the entire
world. And of course, the story coming out really is is the
scam. Now this has been going on forever and ever this it's no
secret only now we can point to a couple of banks, which is
total bull crap, because you can't do this with just a
couple. And this whole three hours that I watched and I guess
you watched it as well, was nothing more than it was it was
like watching Rupert Murdoch, you know, like, yes, there were
some elements in the company. I'm disgusted and makes me sick
to my stomach. You know, it's like it's a show for the idiots
so the you know, the news can pull some boring ass clip, which
we couldn't even find something was so boring. And they probably
all show I'm disgusted. It's just a single, you know, rogue
traders, rogue elements, whatever. But on CNBC, they were
talking about this. And this is this is really the truth. You
know, oh, boy, the truth on CNBC. What may be less trivial.
Is this
situation this scandal involving LIBOR?
Well, luckily, the banking industry I mean, come on, you
know, but you know, you
hear about these things. I think that these were conspiracy
theories, right? You hear that? You hear this about the people
in there feeling as if those idiots like Curry's just
conspiracy theories, but it turns out it's true.
I bore people in inflating the silver markets, and you'd said
er.
We all agree yes, because these markets have come so
concentrated that a few players can do it. If you had 20 or 30,
clearing banks setting LIBOR, it would be harder you
think that they've conspired together and they're just
conspiring internally?
It's like, oh, what are we talking about guilds in Europe
and the taxi industry, it's the same thing. They want to limit
competition and increase their own spreads. That's what this is
all about.
But how bad is it gonna get is there a lot more? You think
there are many more shoes to drop from those vans?
What do you lose to the London Sonata surprises me? I mean,
it's, you know, same old stuff.
Hey, what are you talking about? It? It is we know this is going
on? Here's the problem with up now. Besides that it you know,
it says interest rates and they've been scamming every
single derivative. And what a derivative is now 600 $800
trillion. I think President Obama actually admitted that he
knew it was a $600 trillion market. It's unbelievable. Every
single derivative is based on LIBOR somewhere in the
transaction. I know I studied these I built a derivatives
trading desk for Bankers Trust before they went out of business
for falsifying derivatives trading.
It didn't know what they were doing. The British guys know
it. Well. It was all British guys. And it's literally just
like, I'll take this and take that there's some faxes that
exchange it's No nothing's doc. The minute there's no
regulation, but lawsuits are now starting to happen. And this
could unwind the entire derivatives trade. If more banks
if it turns out that more banks were involved, and more people
come forward than people who have derivatives are gonna say,
Well hold on a second. You were screwing me, because you rigged
the LIBOR rate. So I was either paying too much too little or
whatever. I mean, it's false. It's falsifying stuff. And
that's the danger of this is that the derivatives market
could start to unwind through lawsuits. And I don't know if
it's going to happen. But this certainly is an interesting
crowd, but
it's just not going to happen, at least in any big way, by
having with a couple of big players, especially after the
first couple of people wind up dead. Yeah, well, that is 100
trillion. I think there's a lot of potential here.
Yeah. For for some actual, to the head stuff. Yeah. Meanwhile,
things still not right with the banks in Gitmo nation East in
the UK. It's interesting how you know, this, of course, is the
RBS and NatWest software upgrade glitch. And it but it's
interesting how all the mistakes that are made, like people
paying their mortgage twice their car payments debited
twice, and no one's getting like a deposit twice. Every single
and maybe it's because people get like, Oh, I got extra money.
I'm not gonna say anything. But every single thing you read
about this is about people getting screwed out of their
money. And now Santander has this problem. So, you know, I'm
not sure if a Santander part of RBS I mean, I didn't think it
was who owns Santander sometime there bank? I have no idea who
who owns it, but now they're having problems. And they say,
oh, you know, we do all the online systems are sluggish.
Sorry, I can't give you an accurate accounting I get per
day, maybe five. Sometimes 10 emails of people over in the UK
saying, you know, I can't log on I'm getting no account balances
from three days ago. So this is this is not just you know, like
somebody that always wants one guy a low level guy who messed
up the upgrade police you're so insulting to me.
It's the largest bank in the Eurozone. Spanish banking. Well,
they got a problem there. Okay, well, there you go. So they have
a problem with their online system, something is happening.
I'm just thinking more and more of these banks like doing
whatever they can just to not have to pay anything because you
know, like, you know, it's like what you do at home? Yeah, you
don't pick up the phone. You didn't get it? You see the
caller ID you know, like is another bill collector. Don't
answer the phone. I don't answer that. You know, and wait until
you get your check in. So zombies abound there at the
Eurozone. It's not good. It's not good. Before we continue,
let's How did we do? Do we do okay, for a July where no one
cares about us?
Well, we just got by, we do have an executive producer and
Associate Executive. We
have a 44 to three club member. That's nice. Yeah, we
have Bill HERSA. In Thornhill, Ontario for under $23. It'd be
executive producer for show four to three with four to three. So
let me offer my best wishes to Adam and Mickey.
Oh, interesting. He misspelled Mickey the same way you did in
your email, John. Thanks for that.
Did I spell it wrong? Again, I didn't spell it Mi c k y after
I sent you a note saying hey, you need to before you send this
out. You know
change checker must have reset it.
You can teach it words you know, you can tell them to learn the
spelling.
Anyway with Mickey Mickey receive that without the E on
their upcoming wedding. I'd like to thank both of you for
biweekly Mental Floss, my regular cleansing of the mental
crud that is just just deposited by the crap I hear on the
regular media. Yeah, thank you very much. So then he puts me
over the top and he's gonna be a knighthood and he's got some
accounting there.
Yeah, Miss Mickey is on the list. You know? Things like this
John just really hate me.
She's not saying that it was I'm telling you, Mickey Mickey. It
was a spellchecker. Sir anonymous in Naperville,
Illinois $200. Thanks to the best podcast in the universe
looking for some job karma and karma from Mickey and my c k y
and Adam a Karma doubleshot. If that's possible,
it will just count it twice. Thank you so much. You've got
karma there we leave on Monday.
And Sir Anonymous is That means we got work to do my friend, Mr.
Anonymous is well, I say Associate Executive Producer.
I'm sorry. I'm slow today and that's it. Yeah, it's it has to
two people. Right now that's a great Yes. It was a holiday
nobody, you know, I'm sure holiday only
in America, how about the rest of the world? You know,
the rest of the world cares the world's main one, you know, so
they have to drink all night. Anyway, I want to remind people
that they can help us out, maybe improve our Sunday numbers with
a visit and divorce.org/na channeled to divorce.com/na. No
agenda show.com or no agenda nation.com. And bring up our
contributions. If you wake
up with Jennifer, you'll gain good news. There's one thing you
must remember no agenda and voting
for a healthy balanced news diet.
Try no agenda show.com. Now with
aspartame. So I will reiterate that if you'd like to support
the program as value for value only if you're getting some
value out of this, you think it's worth it. Consider what
you're spending on other avenues of entertainment. And maybe you
could save on that and help us out so we can continue what we
do for.org/n A and even though I've stopped this initiative, I
could not pass up the opportunity to thank two
producers who did registered some domain names for us. And
I'm okay with mentioning these John, in Nebraska. No, is he?
Yeah, I think he is. Yeah, he's at the University of Nebraska. I
think. Anyway, he Huskers he registered drone you.com As in
drone University, and I like that Ford has no agenda show.com
And a lot of people still trying to come up with the words for
the autonomous drone fleet that will soon be flying over our
skies, making their own internal autonomous kill decisions. We
had guardian angels, we had to Well, of course Skynet. And who
was this? Er, I didn't get his name. I'm gonna have to I'll put
it in the show notes. He registered Obama's little
helpers.com. Which I thought was kind of a good one. So if you'd
like to send someone to our show site, just send them to Obama's
little helpers.com. It's something we all can remember.
And of course, you can always go out and do something very
important, which is propagating our formula.
Our formula is this. We go out. We hit people in the mouth
little girl, tell him all about it.
Never gets old. She says she says it so angrily. Yeah, just
let me just chef's slave. You know, that girl has grown up to
be no good.
She'll be good. It was actually should be excellent. Like her.
Gonna be a mean. Date.
Yeah, for sure. For sure.
Well, we could stay in the euro zone for a little bit. That
seems to be you know, now that the boys was fantastic. We had
this big breakthrough. As haiku Herman called it the big
breakthrough for gross and stability in the Eurozone. And
the Euro popped up. And what is it it's right back down where it
was, I think
124
are the men were a big fan of Nigel Faraj, of course, had to
stand up in the in the European Parliament and say a few words.
I don't have to ask you. I know you'll love hearing him. Well,
that's
the 19th crisis summit, the Mr. Cameron's been to, as the
Rolling Stones might say the 19th Nervous breakdown. And
that's reflected, I think, by the funeral mood in this chamber
this morning. Yes, on that Friday morning, breakthrough was
cried. And indeed, Mr. Van Rompuy parroted the word this
morning breakthrough. Nobody believes you. The wheels are
coming off this European Stability Mechanism, your new
bailout vehicle is doomed before it starts. We have legal
challenges in Ireland and in Germany. We have the Estonian
justice minister saying it won't fit their constitution. But most
fun of all the Finns and the Dutch seem to have broken the
agreement that was made in the middle of the night. Perhaps
they were excluded from this perhaps the liberal countries
don't have a say in Europe at all anymore. It's not credible.
And I think the euro crisis now looks to me to be frankly
insoluble. And there's also a massive crisis of Leadership.
It's lovely to see you, Mr. vadra. Employee, you've not been
here for many months. It's delightful to have you back.
Last time you were here, you told us we turn the corner.
By the way, you have to watch this video in the show notes.
423 dot na show notes.com. Man room boy is so uncomfortable
with this. He doesn't know what to do. He just he's like, his
hands are moving all overs. Calling him out for never
showing up is something you think that's bad. Wait until you
hear what he says to Brosa which you and I could have thought up
this line. This is a great line.
But the worst of the crisis was over. I was every one of your
predictions. It goes on getting worse. I'm sorry, sir. You don't
have the presence, the credibility or the standing for
the international markets to believe that you can provide a
solution. And mr. Barroso here at the G 20. When he stood up at
the press conference and said we don't need any lessons in
Democracy said the unelected presidents of the European
Commission. I mean, you went on to say that the funny is that?
That's a good one. He's genius science problems
had been caused by unorthodox practices in North America.
You've made yourselves an international laughingstock, you
don't have any credibility. But one piece of helpful advice from
me, don't this summer, go on any billionaires yachts on extended
holidays? Because the markets guarantee we'll all be back here
in August. Thank you.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
One of the blood billionaires they've been hanging out with
because that's obviously a reference to some incident.
Oh, yeah. That's alerting all of the all the media Oh, crap, we
got to go down to the south of France. Gotta Go see who's
getting on the on the ship. So let me just give you a little
rundown on what's happening in, in the Euro land zone. So he
Nigel spoke about Finland and the Netherlands, as we discussed
blocking the ESM the the European Stability Mechanism,
which as you remember, was not supposed to be implemented for
another year or two. And I was and I called this and said, this
thing is going to be move forward. This is the big one.
It's a blank check. You know, it starts off with 700 billion
euros, paid for by all the slaves from your taxes. Of
course your your countries don't have the taxes, they have to
borrow the money to hand over, it's now going directly into the
bank. So that's your tax money going directly into commercial
companies, ie banks to recapitalize the whole system.
Great. And if there's a Cashcall countries have seven days to
ante up otherwise, you know, you go to jail or whatever,
something bad happens to you. And the Netherlands was like,
you know, you heard Nigel Farage there say, Well, you know, they
don't count you do the middle of the night, the Netherlands can't
vote on stuff like this, because they have a decommission that
cabinet. They don't have elections until the cabinet fell
over this very issue. But it doesn't matter. As it turns out,
I have the here I have it here. They cannot block the emergency
funds. You'll recall maybe if you remember, we were going
through how the voting structure works. And we we basically
figured out if France and Germany say yes to anything, all
the other countries can just go pound sand. So indeed, for the
ESM. Only 85% of the votes are necessary. The Netherlands and
Finland are too small to block the decisions. But it's all a
moot point anyway, because the Dutch Senate approved the ESM
Eurozone a rescue fund just two days ago. And so now that's a
shoo in. Even though by law, they really can't even make
decisions like this. So that's done that's in and literally
your tax money or whatever you're, you're on the hook for
as a taxpayer, because your countries will borrow it is
going directly to banks, which is just ludicrous.
It's like the banks.
So I see you have a clip. So I'd love to hear your clip. The and
this is a red herring distraction, by the way, and I
have I have the reasoning why. Act the super secret. What does
it call Copyright Act that the entire world is signing on to
that we've been told, we could not know about in its entirety?
Because there will be riots in the streets. This is what our
politicians here have told us. The Eurozone rejected actor in
their vote. And you have a clip here of that.
Yeah. So there's the rundown on it. I had to actually cut this
way back because there was a it was boring. It was run on our
tea. So it had it's all it's like nasty nastiness to it about
30 Americans and Australians signed it but the Europeans are
smart enough not to kind of angle and this is the story
basically,
I'll tell the story then a sigh of relief. from Europe's
internet users, the EU Parliament rejected the
notorious online piracy treaty actor. The anti counterfeiting
trade agreement was drafted to protect internet copyright laws
but met with widespread outrage in Europe for threatening
people's web freedom. There will my colleague in this scenario
but earlier spoke with the citizens Advocacy Group founder
Jeremy Zimmerman. He believes that copyright laws must be
reformed but not at the expense of online users.
This victory must be the beginning of something else. And
through the victory on ACTA, we hope that the EU policymakers
will understand that this endless spiral of repression
that is being pushed for the last 15 years by the
entertainment industry has to stop that combating our cultural
practices online is not an option and would only be done at
the expense of our fundamental freedoms, and the very fabric of
what is a free internet. So we have concrete proposals, and
they're already on the table of the EU policymakers about
reforming copyright without making our cultural practices
legal, that sharing and remix of cultural goods be made legal
into the law. So we can end this war against sharing certainly
people are going
to be arguing that ditching ACTA could be a greenlight for
pirates and fraudsters to openly defy copyright law briefly, what
do you say to that argument?
Well, what I say is that it's the notion of copyright itself
that should be revised. We all have the capacity today to
participate in culture, to to share to rip to remix, we all
participants to culture and it is a fundamental right, it is
copyright that should be adapted to society, and not the other
way around.
All right. Great words there French guy, however, the EU
commissioner of international trade, that would be a Belgian
guy, and he's a very interesting fellow, his name is coddled.
Here's his words, and I quote, I don't have any audio or video,
unfortunately, but he he said the following. Just before the
vote, if you decide a for a negative vote before the
European Court rules, let me tell you, the Commission will
nonetheless continue to pursue the current procedure before the
court as we are entitled to a negative vote will not stop the
proceedings before the Court of Justice. So he's going to kick
this up a notch. If the court questions the conformity of the
agreement with the treaties we will assess at that stage, how
this can be addressed. So he goes on to say at the end here,
once we will have identified and discussed the possible
clarifications, I would intend to make a second request for
consent to the European Parliament, whether the
parliament will consider it under this under this
legislature or the subsequent one will be for you to decide.
So what he's saying is the same thing they said to the Irish
Yeah, it's basically like
yeah, we're gonna keep voting until you vote yes. Yeah. And
you voted no. Okay. Do it again.
Even if it's the next parliament, you know, it's like
we'll just do it again. We don't give a crap about you know, this
guy coddled, the lift. This guy is a total aihole You should
look at his wiki page. And spell it. Ke R e L.
Okay, hold on a second. K r e l,
space. D. Space. G UCHTUCHT.
This guy. He was involved in insider trading here November
2008. He was minister in the federal government like a dick.
Exactly. He was accused of insider trading in the case of
the near bankruptcy and sub sequential nationalization sale
of Fortis bank on October 3 2000. And his wife muniya. And
brother in law sold their shares in fortress bunk after a
government crisis meeting to deal with the precarious
financial situation of the bank hours before the public
announcement that the Dutch arm of the bank would be
nationalized. And he says, Hey, man, they sold like 500,000
euros worth of Fortis shares before the before the news came
out. He's like, No, man. I didn't tell them anything. They
were just you know, that just got lucky. Got lucky. Exactly.
It did 2007 interview, he said the following about the Lisbon
Treaty. The aim of the constitutional treaty was to be
more readable. The aim of this treaty is to be unreadable. The
Constitution aim to be clear, whereas this trade treaty had to
be unclear. It is a success. This guy is numero uno
douchebag.
So he's obviously working for Hollywood interests. Just
yeah, just look at his history.
Yeah, he's a he's a he's a sleaze ball. He's a total
sleazeball. So here's what the that was a good catch, by the
way.
Well, here's the stuff that kind of threw me for a loop. So
everyone's talking about act to act. active but during the same
session, here's the things that the the the members of European
Parliament did approve series of reports by the Agriculture
Committee on agricultural policy, which I'm looking into
for Sunday show. They approved three deals to improve trade
terms with Russia that will be oil and gas adopted a report on
proposals to make direct payments for farmers fairer
across the EU agenda 21. Adopt a report on the mandate for trade
log negotiations on the 2/3 2013 budget no idea what that means?
adopted a report on the EU strategy for the Protection of
Animals Yeah, and they will be more protected than humans, I'm
sure. adopt a resolution on the establishment of an EU legal
framework for the protection protection of stray pets and
animals. Aygo. adopt a resolution calling for all EU
citizens have access to a basic bank account. Of course, we need
to have your money electronic bitches, you can't have any cash
anymore. And then some other some other stuff. But so I'm
going to look into the agriculture thing, the direct
payments to the farmers. And this banking thing is troubling.
And what was that other one? You said you didn't get? It was try
law. What was that?
Yeah, the try log, where is it? It's
tried logged?
Yeah, try log. I guess there's a dialog and as a try log and
adopt a report on the mandate for the trialog negotiations?
Well, let's take a look at the book of knowledge. If there's
any entry for trialog I guess that's three parties. Who could
that be?
The trials Russia and Nam? I don't know. Yeah,
something like that. And I do want to try something here are
doing some French news since we we have exactly one listener in
France.
Oh, yeah. The French hate us.
Yeah. And so very interesting. Sarkozy,
apparently I you know, I'm coming to the conclusion.
They're cheap to
just like the Indians. So start cosy and Carla Bruni have fled
to Canada. They have left the country. Of course, his
political immunity ended on June 16 When he was no longer the
president. And, you know, it turns out that well, there's a
couple things going on one, it seems that there's $100 billion
hole in the budget that wasn't clear that they didn't know
about that's not just popped up on the radar. It's all over the
French press. He still is being investigated, and they they had
they've had police officers and inspectors raid his home. So
they actually raided his home and came out with boxes. You
know, that's usually not a good look. No, I
don't think that's a good thing to see.
But here's some of the here's some of the stuff that the
French are getting pretty angry about and this is the here's
your smoking gun. Sir cozy during his reign of terror,
ordered 264 opinion polls about himself. While President at a
cost of 6.3 5 billion euros.
Wow. I thought you're gonna say 6,000,006.3 5
billion euros. And according to what I'm
really pretty corrupt you those opinion polls shouldn't cost
that much well, but here's
the problem. During 2009, and 2010, all of these opinion polls
came back with the same answer. The guy more popular than you is
Dominique Strauss Kahn. Four months later, Strauss Kahn,
arrested for humping a maid, right and then
further arrested they did because he came back to it once
once that fell apart. He came back to France to high
popularity against so they had to screw it again. Again, so
they busted him running a prostitute that turns out he was
a pimp. His wife finally got fed up with the whole thing and left
him he's like,
Yo, Dominique, man DSK bro does get easy on the pimpin. Okay,
isn't that crazy?
That's great. And I'll do one more and then I'll get out of
the pretty dirty that
anyway but Sir cozy has fled he's in Canada he's hiding out
and this by the way I don't think is I don't think this is
public knowledge that he let me see that Mr. Oil is feeding me
this one. You who happens to be in France right now boy gets
around. Yeah, apparently he left the night before the raid on the
last flight out to Canada. Before the raid Oh man. The
German Secret Service the BND bond has not reached in Dienste
in 2009 received the mission To find out what happened if the
economic stimulus stimuli across the Eurozone would not work or
what it would take to, to stop the inevitable. And their report
has now been leaked. And they say that unless 10 trillion
euros is invested, and I think the total amount that was
invested is like more like three in the Eurozone, would you say
that's about right 3.2 I think is the number that was 3.7
Actually
don't don't actually remember it. So it's somewhere around
that number, between three and four. According to the chairman,
Secret Service, if they don't invest at least three $10
trillion. Within three years that will be now this report was
done in 2009. And within three years, World War Three would
erupt.
That's a good one.
That's not a good one. That's not good.
Ah, no. Well, I mean, it's a good fine yeah, but and we can
put our heads in the sand all we want, but this is happening.
This is actually happening around us. Banks, like making
software upgrade mistakes. Like, hey, those guys we're cheating
on LIBOR derivatives falling apart. Come on, man. We live in
interesting times Confucius.
So Sarkozy ran off to hang out, jib, or to be coddled by the
fourth richest Canadian this guy. De Marree.
Oh, you have you have the news that he's there now?
Yeah, it's actually been running in the British papers. And so
that he's apparently ran off to the with this guy's worth 4.5
billion which is going to feed by comparison to somebody I
mean, but guys
low level.
But he came under fire after a sharp cozy apparently was taken
bribes from Liliane Bettencourt
Paris. Yeah, that's a French woman. Yeah, that's what the
investigation is about.
And so the whole thing has fallen apart for this guy. So
he's in Quebec,
I give him six months before Carla Bruni kicks him out.
Though, she'll be out of there. She can't put up
she's gonna go back to Mick Jagger or something. Someone a
little more or less political.
Yeah, no, I would that she just say we can put it in the Red
Book. Yeah,
I mean, she's not gonna stand for this. You know, she was
living large first lady of France. You know, the only
downside is she had to wear her flat shoes, couldn't wear high
heels. And she's done with that now. I can just hear you cola.
I'm done. I'm done with you. And I'm going to put on my high
heels a little twerp. I have a musical career to attend.
Women like that love wearing big heels. Yeah.
She's beautiful. And she's beautiful. She doesn't need this
hassle. He really doesn't need the hassle. I'm sorry.
So the demo Ray family also maintains relationships with the
French docile industrial dynasties. Peugeot.
Yeah, they they're their aircraft people. The soul.
Yeah, yeah. They also want a nice which Santa Mian winery by
the way.
You would know that, wouldn't you?
I've had it. It's good wine. Interesting. This is gonna be
good. Yeah, it was following give us a little French News,
Virginia. Well,
maybe some of our one French listener can kick in and give us
some info. I mean, that's, that's the best thing you can do
is feed us some information. Let us know what you're seeing on
the street. You know, send us a message through mini tail.
Whatever it is that many tell. And while you're at it, you
know, consider supporting the show you cheap bastards.
And it's for sure. So
anyway, same old script, they're doing it again. It's just just
can't get enough of, of how they're trying to attack Syria.
So, you know, we've tried everything we've got, you know,
we did our Geneva meeting, man, not too much came out of it. By
the way. Lucifer clippity clop. Hinton Clinton took our advice
where she going this week, where she's going to be tomorrow.
Paris, of course
she's seen saw her there looking like
her hair looks like crap. So you odds, she's gonna look fabulous.
Yeah, for about about two or three days. Yeah. Why doesn't
she have a full time professional? She's got the
budget
now, but it's the French hairdressers. They don't travel.
They like you come to Me, either. Ilari ill already you
come to me. I don't feel like traveling to all your crazy
destinations.
I think it'd be somebody they could send to hang out with her.
So what helped me the last time I saw she was at this thing
about slave trading, which I had was I didn't get a clip for it,
but I might for the next show. And she had a she was wearing a
ponytail. She's gotten that Oh
no, it's that's when women are have when they're fed up with
their hair. It's ponytail time. Yeah. They just pull it back
ponytail and which is kind of a cool look but not in her. Her
head not in a woman at 70 Please now don't be ageist is a woman?
No, she's in her 60s 60s She's 63
Okay, well, almost 70
Um, so WikiLeaks. Oh, we have all the communications about how
bad the Assad regime is. And all the horrible companies that are
sending weapons and a coincidence. Oh, and you know,
this is such a setup. And of course, it's not like they
released the 2 million documents to us know, says WikiLeaks that
wikileaks.org Which I thought didn't work anymore, but it
apparently just works. Over the next two months, groundbreaking
stories derived from the files will appear in Akbar and
Lebanon, El Masri, Al Yom in Egypt, ARD and Germany
Associated Press in the US, L'Espresso in Italy, or nee in
France pubblico. In a Spain, a spine. Yeah. All other
publications will announce themselves closer to the
publishing date. This is we've seen this before. This is how
the CIA does it. And all of a sudden, no. Julian Assange is
our hero again. And you know, they've released three, like
three or four documents this morning, because this is a
release from today. And, you know, the first one is an
Italian company Finmeccanica. You know, they were supplying
communications equipment to the Syrian police the bastards. Come
on, man. Ah, yeah, so So this is just who we are going to call
out you know, who was our enemy who we're gonna make like a
doofus. And of course, we're going to make Assad look like a
total aihole which is being done in conjunction with my favorite
institution. Don't be confused by the name, Human Rights Watch.
Now Human Rights Watch is receives an annual $100 million
grant from George Soros Open Society Foundation. And they've
come out with a damning report. I tell you, headline. We made
them suck their own blood off the floor. Headline headline
from the report and we it's good when we took their fingernails
out with pliers and made them eat them. We made them suck
their own blood off the floor. grisly accounts from inside
Syria's 27 torture centers. Yes, Human Rights Watch report
released this Syrian President Bashar Al Assad says he regrets
the shooting down of a Turkish jet. These people are horrible.
detainees were beaten with batons and cables burned with
acid sexually assaulted and their fingernails torn out and
had to stock their own blood. So I'm like I gotta read this
report. This is there's some good stuff in here. Here's the
here's so you want always look at the report and what it's
based on. And this is what I do as a government legislation
analyst. This report is based on 200 interviews conducted by
Human Rights Watch since the beginning of the anti government
demonstrations in Syria. Most of these interviews were conducted
by telephone and Skype. That's their proof. This whole report
is based on 200 People they Skyped with who said, Amen, they
were pulling out our fingernails and made us suck the blood.
I'm sorry, that sounds pretty far fetched.
This is this is bullcrap. And look who's behind the report.
Come on people. But these headlines, it's just too much.
Oh, yeah. No, this guy's toast.
And this was fantastic. I think this was this was CNN. You're
gonna love this. So see, and I think it's CNN audible know what
it's like. There's a journalist who escaped a Syrian Journalist
from that television station that got blowed up the state
television station.
Right now he's gone. She wasn't it was an independent television
station that was promoting state issues.
Right? Correct. So you're going to hear this journalist, explain
to you how horribly corrupt the media is in Syria. Now, the fun.
The fun exercise here is whenever he says Syria, just
think America. Whenever he says Assad think CIA, or Bush, or
Obama or fill in the blank, or Tony Blair, or Cameron. This is
how it works. He's actually explaining how it works. But of
course, we're led to believe this only happened in Syria.
Great little opening music
series. Buddy network portrays a reasonably straightforward world
I think as maybe as a BBC report, actually,
a brave government leads the fight against foreign lead
terrorists. Melania how's it every day As the channel
broadcasts the same message me I will have time slaver reveals
how it's done. He used to be one of the network's reporters. Last
week, he defected and escaped, he
defected. Great word, by the way, it defected to Turkey to
Turkey,
not an ethical dilemma.
We talk to people before we interview them. We didn't pre
interview Syrian citizens don't know anything, they don't know
what to say. So we tell them what to say on TV, to get the
best report that we need. As a journalist, my success is in
getting the report to the channel, I do the reporting, and
I present it to the citizens to the nation. Another example, we
tell the interviewees to say to us that they support Bashar Al
Assad, and that they will always support him. And they accept
this. And they say whatever I tell them. We do this to please
the authorities watch us. Does this
sound familiar at all?
Well, we did.
Who gives the instructions about what you can say and what you
can't say? Because the
bath party sometimes appoints a representative to give orders on
their behalf as a PR
company.
That's using a PR agency. We've had the PR person with the CEO,
even depending on what part of media you're exactly and won't
let the guy say anything other than what they allow him to say
exactly
through an Information Office where our orders come from. The
committee tells us to go and film this particular event to
take pictures of the martyred and so on,
right? Yes.
Did you broadcast anything that you knew was false? That
we produce the news according to what the channels managers want?
If I produce a report that echoes their opinion, then I get
a bonus. But if it's based on my opinion, without representing
their view, it won't get on air. Eva, for example, serious Energy
Minister says there's plenty of petrol available. But in reality
there aren't enough supplies in the country. We journalists are
liars to the nation. People can't trust this situation is
frustrating
for the guy that is the BBC I'm sorry, the guy who is doing this
interview must be thinking crap man
sounds familiar. Liars to the nation a clip of the day.
Oh my goodness. Oh, you're so kind well hold on a second.
That's Wow, I'll take it Yeah. Oh we are liars.
Tanisha
how awesome is awesome. There's like 26 seconds
holding him again tastic.
Qatar and Saudi Arabia are really financing and pouring
arms into Syria if you stand so, you know, so principally against
the influx of arms into Syria? Can't you lean on your allies to
start doing so?
We've talked about this many many times here today. We've
made our decision other controls
sorry I'm completely in the wrong clip
right there same day that he arrived in Turkey gunman rated
one of the channels offices near Damascus they destroyed it
studios and killed seven staff members because
they were made to lie but now
they can so we did this as an intro to talking about Miss Miss
leading the public that it was a known fact and because it was
taking credit for that that that TV station was raided and and
blowed up by the rebels. So now they're trying to fly that it
was the government that did because of this guy. defecting?
Give me a break.
I just thought it was hilarious how he's actually telling us how
the news works.
Oh, no, that's the best part because that's exactly the way
it works everywhere. And we know this show by the way.
We've we've been in the media so we have this morning. I didn't I
didn't have a chance to clip it I saw on CNN who's our friend. I
used to be on that. Tech TV CNET. What's her name? The CNN
the black girl. Come on. Come on. Come on Soledad. So that
O'Brien was solid.
I know she was never a she was on MSNBC. She was never on Tech
TV.
Not but she did techy stuff didn't she? Didn't she do this?
She ran
something called the site but it wasn't it was kind of she was
just sick. And I know like I've worked with her. Like, at I've
worked with her. I've met her. I've talked to her. I haven't
yet chatted with her for I didn't work with her. Maybe two
or three times but I've had enough conversation. She's one
of the sweetest people. It's very she's
very sweet. She's super cute. And she's really trying to make
her mark during the summer weeks on CNN because he gets to fill
in for Anderson.
He was put on the fast track to become an M an NBC heavy duty
but something went wrong. They were training you're on MSNBC
when it was more of a tech channel. Yeah. And then
somewhere along the lines she got bumped by some other you
know, multi CultI looking woman Have who then disappeared, and
she got fed up and left.
So this morning, just before the top of the hour, they come back
from a break. And there's four people at the table. And this is
a new show. And and she says, Well, we've got two interesting
news. Taco Bell is now doing healthy food, gourmet food at
Taco Bell. And they've all got their they've all got a plate of
healthy Taco Bell food in front of them. And literally, they're
like, Wow, this is really good. Yeah. And it's healthy, too. And
it's like, I mean, at least give me the pleasure of putting like
a little little bug in the bottom saying this is an ad. If
it was just, it was a complete advertisement. And they had even
the desk lit up with like the new slow, go, you know, the
cantina Bell menu, whatever it is. With chef Lorena Garcia, it
was so unbelievable.
A funny clip. Yeah. CNN, right, yeah, it'll
show up somewhere. I mean, it was just corrupt. I was just
like, wow, you know, how can you do that? So anyway, the clip
that I'm misfired here, was, we had two State Department press
conferences, July second and July 3, which were posted very
late. And I got them this morning and missed all of my
Adobe Flash blow up. And just hilarious how, how open it is
now, if you were trying to follow Syria and give you some
real insight and some real information. And so what's
happening now is this the Saudi Saudi Arabia, they are sending
weapons and guns, and, and probably troops and al Qaeda or
whatever, into Syria. And of course, Turkey is going to get
all the blame for it, but the Saudis are doing it. And so this
is just being discussed completely openly in the State
Department press press briefings, as if it's the most
normal thing in the world, and everybody knows it.
Your allies, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, are really financing and
pouring arms into Syria, if you stand so, you know, so
principally against the influx of arms into Syria? Can't you
lean on your allies to start doing so?
Say, we've talked about this many, many times here today,
we've made our decision, other countries are making other
decisions. Our goal now is to try to stay coordinated on all
of these issues having to do with the opposition.
So we all know it. We all know Saudi Arabia, sending weapons
and money and everything. That's their business. It's not like
they do whatever we tell them to do. It's not like we have any
relationship with the Saudis or anything. It's just like, hey,
that's what they do. We do this. Yeah. The most normal thing in
the world. We do
this, they do that. And that's that,
whatever. You know, it's it's all good. To the Friends of
Syria.
It's good.
They are meeting the Friends of Syria are meeting in Paris,
chosen by Lucifer, Hillary clippity clop Clinton, so that
she can get her hair done. And I've been trying to figure out
who's at the table there. And one of the parties is GTZ. And
the GTZ is the Deutsche Gesellschaft for
internationaler. Zoomer zusammen arbeite. This is the this when,
when Eastern West Germany, or when East Germany re was that we
had the reunification, right. This is a this is a mega mega
corporation, which was many companies rolled into one, they
have a huge, huge building, I think in in Berlin. And if you
watch the movie, which I've mentioned before kata striker,
you'll see that these guys is a whole, like 15 minutes on him.
These guys are at the table, they're in the working group.
And so that we in America, we call them the GTZ is their
acronym. And they are already divvying up all of the assets of
Syria, that's what the meeting is about. And I got this, this
huge article, which I can't even get through. But you can look at
it in the show notes. 40 three.na shownotes.com These
guys are already I mean, the the whole meeting is not about what
are we going to do is like who gets what, that's, that's what
this whole working group is about?
Yeah. Obviously. This is the kind of thing that started World
War One.
Well, there you go. You know,
I mean, they like to do these meetings, they do this, you
know, these a certain group, you know, elite layer up, you know,
they put these meetings together. And that's exactly
what they do. They divvy things up. It's just like a rally that
when they Africa was doing they start drawing actually, I think
Africa and the Middle East when they started drawing boundary
lines that this country will be the end here and it will the
other country will start there dissolved them like this. It's
pretty where's it where's the border between, you know, one
African country and another. It's determined by one of these
meetings by these Europeans. And so at least we're in the
meeting.
We're definitely in the meeting.
I'm sure that they resent that, by the way. What? That were in
the meeting, who Europeans who resents it, the Europeans, they
don't like us being in these meetings. They really I mean,
you know, Hillary has pushed yourself into the top of the, of
the heap and it's like, God has to annoy these guys.
Well, there's so much happening. There's so many there's so much
jockeying for position. Donald Rumsfeld was in Georgia last
week. Why? Well, because, you know, we need to bring the gas
pipelines through Georgia member Lucifer was there like two or
three weeks ago, and now he's a he's a pitchman. Now he's a
pitchman for whatever, you know, whatever pipeline or security
for the pipelines, whatever it is. And so And who else shows up
haiku Herman shows up in Georgia. They're all they're
all. They're all going to Georgia to you know, ensure that
the guy is on board and you know, the guys is insane. He
eats his ties, like he's, he's clinically insane. Saakashvili,
so they got to keep their eye on him and make sure that
everything's okay. Because, you know, he's not a member of NATO
yet. And that's what he wants to do. They keep dangling the
carrot in front of them. But they need to bring that pipeline
through. So then, you know, we could screw the Russians. And
that's why we were still there. We got to bypass all the
Russians and get it straight from Turkmenistan. I'm sorry,
Azerbaijan, from Sao beaucoup, Azerbaijan, right through
Georgia, and then cross the water there and then pipe it
through Turkey. I mean, just look at the players. Just look
at the players. And then you know, Russia is still like, oh,
man, we're losing our Syria deal. Now when they're trying to
work it out with Israel, so they can go through Cyprus. It's a
big race. The big race is on.
And there's some arms deals involved in this too. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And guess what? We're not involved in any of them.
No, in fact, it's not even being reported to the public this this
whole thing with the Rumsfeld in Georgia. I mean, I've been
noticing the less and less weird stuff is being reported to the
public. I had I got this
hold on a second. John. You're telling me that it's not
valuable to know that Taco Bell is now serving gourmet food
that guess that Doritos thing is crapping out
I'm gonna see if I can find the clip for that. You definitely
have to get that clip. Chat Room helped me out here hookah Bremen
has
a number of things that American mericans never find out about
one at somebody pointed. I think it was JC buzzkill Jr that
pointed out that there's like an edict about about Jew any thing
about Israel internal anything about Israel is not to be
reported by anybody for whatever reason, but of course other
media outlets international one, they have no problem and the
biggest scandal going on right now is the is the they want to
there's a group of evil you go to Israel, you see these people
all over the place, all ultra orthodox Jews, right? They got
all the strings hanging down. They got the stick at the end,
they wear the hat and the hat crazy hat.
I like the hat. The hat I think is badass. It's like, That is
weird. Refold that to a pimp hat. I like those hats. And by
the way, a lot of Jewish people don't like the Orthodox Jews,
no. Israeli really don't like and many of them come from a
couple Brooklyn cults. And they're all over Israel. And the
thing about them is the they're kind of war mongers but they
refuse to take part in the military because it's beneath
them. And I have a report that you'll never hear in American
news. It's right here, the army, we are hurting the this
principle of separation.
The problem is that the ultra orthodox Jewish community has
grown over the decades from just a handful now. 10s of 1000s are
exempt from what should be compulsory military service in
Israel. Many Israelis are resentful of the fact that ultra
orthodox Jews live off government stipends full time
religious studies mean few are employed in the standard labor
market. There is a growing narrative here about how the
rest of the country is footing the bill for this one community.
I think that every Israeli citizen should have individual
rights and individual responsibilities, and they
should be drafted as individuals and they should serve they
should serve honorably,
and affection from a salary. And there's no doubt that the ultra
orthodox should serve in the army. There's no reason why my
18 year old friend should be protecting them at checkpoints
while they're just sitting at home.
It's big On the top political issue more so than others,
because criticism of the ultra orthodox community is part of a
perpetual debate about the character of Israel, how secular
it should be, or how Jewish any decision by the government to
put these men into the military would disrupt their personal
quest, they say, for spiritual growth and reflection.
Have you heard about this? Of course not. Like the number one
topic? No. Okay, whatever. No, no, no.
No, well, you're you have something to say about this.
Now I've done no, I've always I knew this was gonna come to a
head someday because they keep flocking over there. And it's
just like, it just bugs bugs, because I know Israelis, and
they just hate these people. And then they moan about I was taken
through one of their communities by some one of these ultra
orthodox haters. And he says if people live like they live like
pigs takes me to this to this neighborhood. Yeah, all the
garbage is outside. There's dogs barking at everything is really
like being in the worst kind of slum in you know, like, favela
in Brazil.
Terrible. Wow. Now while you were wasting your time trying to
find some actual news. Here's what the chat room found
mentally What do you think people are going to be looking
for and what you're offering versus what
they get to meet to meet here. Listen, I'm putting my name I'm
putting my face I'm putting my reputation on the line for this
manual. So I'm bringing that choice I'm bringing that
different I'm bringing the focus you're gonna be able to have the
first bite and you're gonna be able to go for more so
specifically what so instead of what I have here, which I you
know, I was raised on my rice bowl, you know, I love cilantro.
Nobody knows that. So I wanted to have that as a as a common
thread throughout my menu. I bring the black beans that was
raised on black beans and rice you're gonna have be able to to
have this wonderful grilled chicken that is made with this
wonderful marinade. They're all my recipes. You have a full
course
This is CNN promoting the gourmet menu. It's here it is.
This is from starting point. That's the name of
a wonderful marinade she used as an adjective to describe
everything well let's
listen to some more because taco bell goes this is Chef Lorena
Garcia
I bet some vegetables in the sweetness of the corn. They got
his sauce I have a cilantro sauce that is coming on
I like to see my food and so why don't we
this isn't the report that I even saw this morning. This is a
whole different report so they're doing it over and over
again.
Oh, did you didn't have the Mexican chef
now she's she Mexican? I guess so Garcia hope
so. She's got the biggest grip one of the better fake axes
for having very economic menu $1 $2 years are gonna cost a
little bit more but one thing that people don't know is many
people don't know is that and talk about you can actually get
your money back if you're unsatisfied and that
money back guarantee but wait, there's more. Oh, that's what
that's what your news is doing Ladies and Gents thanks thorn in
the chat room for finding that one. I wish you could find the
other one.
Doing it over and over now because it's product placement
plain and simple. Get think. And and and host endorsement.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. The whole the whole panel is there and so
sourcing it this is this is a disgusting episode in the
history of broadcasting.
Well, the good news is no one saw it.
Yeah, I guess that's true.
interesting news out of Chicago. Now, of course run by Rahm
Emanuel, the bathhouse buddy of our president, the Chicago
chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations.
We've spoken about this before Kerr issued a press release
announcing that Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, President Obama's
former Chief of Staff has announced an Office of New
Americans Advisory Committee. That includes the ex executive,
the executive director of care in Chicago. Ahmed rehab. Really?
Yeah, that took a lot of guts. Now care for those of you don't
know, he is noted as one of the quote unindicted co defendants
of the Holy Land foundation trial, which pretty much puts
care as a front
for terrorism? Yeah, it is. It's totally a front.
And this of course, is the Muslim Brotherhood. And it's
here it is the committee's goal that he is not going to be an
adviser to is to generate recommendations, develop
strategies, and present an overall vision to promote the
city's economic vitality and ensure global competitiveness by
coming the most immigrant friendly city in the world.
Are you terrorists out there Chicago?
Being Chicago, I mean, what can we tie into this? How am I
supposed to train? I mean, my brain is hurting from this. I
don't know.
This it has to be. This is this is something else is going on?
Well, this
is we know the Obama administration loves the Muslim
Brotherhood, you know, to put them in charge of reshaping the
city of Chicago. A little brazen.
Yeah. Yeah. You think someone might notice? No, apparently
not. Apparently, the media hasn't picked it up. And by the
way, you know, this Saturday, I don't have a clip about this,
but this Saturday are the Libyan elections. Oh, yeah, that'll be
great. And so they expect good, they have the same slate of
1000s of candidates. But they it's it's debatable whether or
not they're going to slip in some Muslim Brotherhood styles.
Some Islamism sell alphas or something. Oh, no, of
course they will. Of course, that's that's the whole that's
the whole idea. We got Egypt, we got. We're gonna have Libya. And
eventually, we're gonna have that in Syria. Yeah, that's the
whole idea here. Mentioning elections, you know, we had a
big election south of the border. And we have a new,
perhaps President Elect in Mexico. Although that's being
disputed. There's all kinds of voting fraud going on. And but
very quickly, the United States came out and said,
Congratulations, the President's like, hey, congratulations, new
presidents looking man, by the way. Yeah, he's a handsome
fellow. And so this came up in the July 2 State Department
briefing. And the question was, how come? You're so quick to
congratulate this guy, when, you know, it's not really been
proven yet that he's, you know, there's a little investigation
going on, you know, it's he's not really the president elect,
yet. Officially? The answer is just too beautiful to be true.
Can't actually release too much. What Why are you so quick to
congratulate the president elect on partial results when you
refuse to do that for? You hear what he said?
You refused to do that for someone? For Putin, or for
Putin,
which is a great question is a great Come on. That's a great
question
that said, same guy that's match all these points, or I saw the
point your question, that's Matt. That's Matt.
Yeah. Matt, is here we go.
Well, we have, we have good confidence in these preliminary
results. And in the integrity. As I said,
we have good confidence that was most expensive.
Well, we you know, as you often point out, Matt, we're not
always consistent.
was good. He admitted that we're not always consistent. We're
not always consistent. It's our
government at work, not always consistent. And also tells us
that Obama does not like Putin. And Putin does not. And we saw,
you know, say see any picture of the two of them together and
Putin is leaning. He's gonna fall out of his chair leaning
away from Obama. Yeah, it's,
it's a little obvious. He
does not like Obama at all. No,
it's quite obvious what's going on there.
And he got along fine with Bush. I used to hang out at the ranch
shoot things.
Yeah, that's some good pictures of them.
Hey, George.
Let's go shoot some things.
We're talking about news again that we're getting to our
donation section which is going to be short. Yeah. There you
know about the mystery
disease sweeping Cambodia, mystery disease sweeping. This
is another
example. I've changed all my news, the watching habits so you
have to have changed your report his story, by the way, when it
crops up. When it finally shows up in this US of A it's going to
be you know, be some vaccine, there'll be some scam involved.
But right now, there's no scam involved. So it's just a it's
just a story and listen to it. And now
word of a deadly illness has only increased the daily lines
of those seeking medical help. Outside this hospital in Phnom
Penh, 1000s of wait to see a doctor.
I'm so worried about this mysterious sickness. I only want
my child to get better.
Just what is killing Cambodia's children remains unknown.
Doctors have recorded the same path as symptoms. First, a fever
often swelling in the brain. And then the sudden destruction of a
child's lungs.
Wow. All these cases were hospitalized here. Now totally
66 cases and 64 cases have died.
Wow.
Again, no unreported media is not it is not of interest. It's
just apparently kids and there are between the ages of one and
three. Their little kids are catching this thing left and
right. And nobody can attend And if they have not been able to
find out what it is that's causing it, there's just
complete mystery to everyone. So fie
acceptance and uptake of Gardasil preventative vaccine in
Phnom Penh Cambodia i That's where I'm looking. Now it's
possible that's where I go. But these are young kids right? So
maybe
one to two to two year olds, basically. So let's do
U N. This is how we do the research, vaccinations Cambodia.
Let's just see what they're shooting them up with. What are
we shooting them up with their h one n one vaccines? Probably
testing something. Probably testing some vaccine. That's
what that's what I'd say. I'd say they're testing a vaccine
is a possibility. Don't argue that is not possible because
we've seen this kind of thing before and then who you know,
it's like, Who gives a shit? Do you know the population is too
high in these areas? Anyway, so
we ran out of average kids. No, you ran out of African kids to
kill?
Yeah, we have gotten a clue to vaccines anymore. I'm gonna show
my school but donate to no agenda. I imagine all the people
who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun. I
want to thank a few people for helping us out and show for two
three. And we have 424 coming up, which is a palindrome
go That's right. It's same forwards is backwards.
424423 is not bad. You got two, three and a four didn't have a
one. But we do have a one $100 from Sir John Smith in St.
Petersburg, Florida. Staying in my cabin in North Carolina
prepping for the zombie apocalypse. I think the reason
people love zombie apocalypse shows isn't the zombies but the
freedom derived from the end of the world. We'd rather deal with
the zombies in the government. Both want their pound of flesh,
but we can kill zombies. Well, yeah, well off the wall, but

sense to me that Portugal did not win the European
Championship. Portuguese people never really complained about

John to do a funny voice which is value in itself. I know
you'll get a lot of emails and probably won't have time to deal
with this one on the show. But I've listened faithfully to the
show since episode 183 knows and executive producers show 333 I'm
planning to contribute next month as a birthday present for
myself and a wedding celebration for Adam and Ms. Mickey. But in
line with my policy of only offering production input with
production contribution. I offer the following along with the $50
contribution. Please remember the EU monetary crisis is not
being kind of exchange rates for the Gitmo nation. Kiwi, so it
costs me near on $64. Recently, I've felt quite strongly about
two things Adam has mentioned and wanted to get them off my
chest one. Adam is recent concerns about the use of the
word homophobic raised the question, there is really no
such word in relation to irrational filler fear of
homosexuality. Using the definition below the word
homophobic would refer to an irrational fear, fear of things
that are the same. Now their words homogenous. Okay,
it says it should be gay phobic. Yeah, okay, well, you're you're
splitting hairs.
Well, you're splitting and it's a common knowledge the usage is
not it's really more idiomatic than it is accurate. Oh, thank
you. I love it when you That's sexy when you talk like that
idiomatic just say that. Magic

Hey, I would do we had that New Zealand donor One of them. Have
you seen cnet.com is up to
the last I read is that they're blaming Joe Biden for this
yeah.com has a bunch of pictures of Joe Biden, I guess doing lip
kisses to people from the NCAA and RNA. And I guess there was a
documented a massive meeting that took place with the White
House and the and the Hollywood interest today before they Oh,
really? Yeah. And he says that Obama Yeah, he believes that
this whole incident that took place, which was completely
turns out to be illegal in New Zealand, the whole thing was a
quid pro quo to Hollywood, by the Obama administration to get
them to donate more.
Well, this is a good strategy that we should be using. If you
don't donate, we're going to arrest you. I like it. Well,
those guys are smart.
Yeah. Around the ball. Well, Obama, these guys had nothing
else. They know how to run a campaign. So
let me think Do you think that the Hollywood media will report
a lot on this story, or we think that though,
the sideline hasn't been reported on by anybody except
us?
Where did you read it? I read it somewhere.
I don't know where it's on his blog.
Oh, right. Okay.
Well, it's clear, John, you and I are obviously suffering from
IED,
which is improvised electronic disability? I don't know.
No, I Ed. Of course, we know. And it's occurred to Improvised
Explosive Device carefully chosen for the same acronym as
an improvised explosive device, but no big study came out. Big
study, big, big study. 5% of all kids suffer from IED. An even
larger percentage of adolescents suffer from
what it means. Yeah. Improvised explosive diarrhea.
You're not far off the mark. Intermittent explosive disorder.
Yes, this is a part of DSM, the Bible for for mental illness.
It just have anything to do with spontaneous human combustion. I
know you've been tracking that but no, that's my only crackpot
item
around the age of 12 or earlier, many kids over 5% of all, just
over 5% of all adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17.
According to a new study, report, they have suffered
attacks of anger or are destructive, frightening and
wildly out of proportion to any provocation. This is known as ie
D intermittent explosive disorder. Wow. And it now I
can't get mad now. No, no, I have. Well, John, we have to
make sure let's just see, have you or any member of your family
suffered from the following? Yes. acquis suffered from the
following symptoms. There's, it's a very short quiz. And the
way this is diagnosed is your doctor will sit down and speak
with you and ask you these questions. If you can answer yes
to any of them, then you can be diagnosed with intermittent
explosive disorder. Question number one. Have you had several
discrete episodes of failure to resist aggressive impulses that
result in serious assault of acts or destruction of property?
Yes, of course. Oh, sorry. Sorry. Shoot me.
Well, you already have it, too. Have you ever experienced the
degree of aggressiveness expressed during these episodes
to be grossly out of proportion to any precipitating
psychological stressors? And see the aggressive episodes are they
not better accounted for by a different mental disorder?
We don't know.
That's a hard question to answer. It's
okay. Because there's good news. You can be treated for this. Oh
yes, treatments according to the Mayo Clinic.
That's a shocker.
Now there is no one single treatment that's best for
everyone with intermittent explosive disorder. Treatment
generally includes medication and individual or group therapy.
Many different types of drugs are used to help control
intermittent explosive disorder a new sc we have antidepressants
such as fluoxetine, which would be Prozac, and paroxetine, which
is Paxil. So you can take those or anticonvulsants anti
convulsive it's like the stops you from going into convulsions
which would be Tegra Tegretol, or Dilantin or neuro Tonin or
lamonica. Maca tal I've never heard of these. These sounds
great. How about warm milk? Well, no, you can also try anti
anxiety agents from the benzo diet diet. dyads or peen
families such as Valium, Ativan, or Xanax. And you could also try
John mood regulators such as lithium. Yes. So we're good to
go. I think we should get diagnosed on this and get us
some cool ass drugs.
So meanwhile, of course you mentioned Paxil and some of
these other drugs. Oh, we might have doctors won't be aware of
the fact and do we have the clip? drug company was busted
for a few bucks. Oh,
really? Hold on a second. Where's your clip? Oh, here it
is. Yes, this was an interesting one.
Pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline is to pay the
equivalent of 2.3 billion euros in the largest health care fraud
settlement in US history. pending court approval. The
agreement should resolve allegations that the British
drugmaker broke us laws in the marketing and development of
three of its major drugs. Washington claims the size of
the settlement is unprecedented.
healthcare fraud is an epidemic that touches every aspect of our
lives. And yet for far too long, we've heard that the
pharmaceutical industry views these settlements as merely the
cost of doing business. That's why this administration is
committed to using every available tool to defeat
healthcare fraud.
The company has already admitted promoting two drugs for
unapproved usage while in the case of a third its diabetes
drug Avandia, it failed to reveal health risks.
Anywhere between 50 and 100,000. Diabetics had unnecessary
unneeded heart attacks, or death due to the drug Avandia, this
drug hurt a lot of people
GSK is also to be monitored for five years after being found
guilty of paying kickbacks to doctors. The company's current
CEO said the misconduct originated in a different era
and would not be tolerated today.
No Yeah, right. Don't my fault that wasn't on my watch
what the best part of the news of course about this case is
that it turns out that Dr. Drew who I have called out as a shill
for the pharmaceutical industry for caught it early. Oh via
we've caught them on so many occasions. I was paid $275,000
For two days of work to deliver quote messages about Wellbutrin
Sr. In settings where it did not appear the doctor Pinsky was
speaking for GlaxoSmithKline that's what his contract states.
I believe
him and then the CEO just said this was the this isn't a bygone
era, this sort of corruption. Didn't he just say they
heard that I heard that. I think Dr. Drew should be fired from
CNN. And he should. Yeah, yeah. For being a shill. And the funny
thing is, he would the situation in which he brought this up was
apparently one of the side effects of what was the drug? He
was pimping.
Well, whatever it Yeah,
well, well, Wellbutrin is Wellbutrin. And I looked for the
clip. I couldn't find it. Apparently one of his patients
was, you know, on the show talking about how she had 60
orgasms in a row. That's one of the side effects and he's like,
Yeah, that's actually quite some people enjoy that. Imagine
having 60 orgasms, this another pill. Oh my god. I'd be so
tired. I can't do the show man. During the 15 minute segment,
Dr. Pinsky communicated key campaign messages the spot is
almost a textbook for the way drug companies have used
speakers to promote medicines. Everything Pinsky says is
reasonable anecdotally, Wellbutrin does not seem to have
few does seem to have few sexual side effects with paints these
comments had the effect of giving airtime to the use of a
medicine that Glaxo was not supposed to promote
wasn't a dat exactly what they said in this lawsuit that they
were doing and then they were corrupting doctors. And then the
CEO come out and say that was a bygone era. We don't tolerate
that anymore. And here it is right now in front of us. Dr.
Drew was what am I missing something
Dr. Drew wasn't alone. He was one of a long list of experts
listed in the complaint that the government says were paid by
Glaxo as part of its promotional efforts. Requests for commitment
were sent to a manager for Pinsky, a publicist who had
representative and through his HLN website, but were not
immediately returned. Doctor you should be fired. He shouldn't be
disbarred or this this this is
dissembled this.
They should take his medical license away from him. He should
never be allowed to show up as an expert anymore. And in Sanjay
Gupta here, Yo bitch, I got my eyes on you. You're Next you
will show up next. Because it doesn't matter. These people
whether they they'll promote Taco Bell, they'll promote Glaxo
And they'll cover it as news and whatever great stuff.
Yeah and then people watch this crap.
Let me see if black south Greco, hire Doctor Pinsky, blah, blah,
blah. There's some other things he paid occupancy $100,000 in
March $175,000 in April. God, what a gig.
Yes, you're better than our gig. Wow, of course we at least can
sleep at night, although I'm sure he can sleep at night too.
He's got plenty of pills. You can take
your doctor pins. He noted that the drug could explain a woman
suddenly having 60 orgasms in one night.
Yeah, this is bullcrap. Of course. The only reason you
would say that is to get people to bias to get Yeah, because
some women who probably have trouble having orgasms think
well, maybe I should try this. This sounds pretty cool. Hey,
women, if you're having trouble with orgasms, try a different
guy. That's, that's my suggestion. To you cheese.
Anyway, we call them on that. So I got to take a really unpopular
stance on something here. But it's been it's really been
annoying me I've been keeping, I knew that this clip, which is 29
seconds from the BBC. I knew that it would come back. And
there was a reason for that. And this is how I track things, I
got a pretty good system of archives. And I think I'll stick
that away because I know what's going to come up. Here's a clip
from a few weeks ago with as aired on the BBC,
there are around 3030 34 million people in the world who are
infected with HIV AIDS, of those around a million will die this
year as a result of the illness. Those fortunate enough to be
given or to be able to afford treatment usually take a
cocktail of antiretroviral drugs, lots of pills. In other
words, however, a new single pill drug for HIV treatment has
been developed after extensive clinical trials in the US, it's
called quad.
So quad is a new pill that has had extensive clinical trials,
and it will and the recommendation actually, is you
might even just want to take quad just even if you're going
to have sex. And you may have noticed, and I didn't pull a
clip, because it was it made me so angry. I couldn't even listen
to it. But the FDA approved the first over the counter self
administered HIV home test kit to detect the presence of
antibodies to HIV type one and type two. And you do this by
swabbing your cheek. Now, what's interesting about the story is
that and we know that we've learned from Gardasil, that the
testing guys and the guys who have the fix are always in bed
together. So the the new systems that test for HPV, for a human
papilloma virus, they are set to deliver a high set of false
positives, so that the shot can be sold to you. And here we have
a home testing kit for HIV, not for AIDS, but HIV type one, type
two, and I've done a lot of research into this. And it's
time for me to just take my stand and say, because I'm angry
about this, this, this home testing kit has a 5% false
positive of when you don't have it, but a 1% false positive if
you do have it and it wouldn't register. So in 99% of the
cases, if you have HIV via antibodies, type one, type two
in your system, excuse me, only 1% of the times it will not
correctly identify it. If you don't have HIV type one and type
two in your system 5% It will miss diagnose that and of
course, the availability of the Home Use test kit provides
another option for individuals to get tested so they can seek
medical care if appropriate. And if you haven't you basically you
get the kid, you test it, and you should go anyway. That's
basically what they're saying, now. I am I am one of millions
of people. But really the ones who speak out about it are very,
very few. It's not a popular stance, that the HIV the human
immunodeficiency virus does not necessarily kill you. I believe
the drugs that are then administered to you are the
things that kill you. And I've seen this over and over again.
Many people I know friends have died of AIDS. And the the there
is a consensus in the scientific community as well, not just me,
that if you go back to the 70s and the 80s, really late 70s 80s
When this was prevalent, and why amongst gay men, because you
have this human immune deficiency virus, which through
healthy eating and vitamins you can get rid of in a matter of
weeks. But if you're doing all kinds of unhealthy things, like
you know doing poppers snorting coke drinking, doing crazy
stuff. Why are you doing that?
I think you You've gone down the toilet with this one I, I am
not. This is what you used to hear,
hold on a second, let me finish it. I seriously believe that HIV
kit that the virus, and I'm John, there are I have read at
least 10 books about this. And there are many people in the gay
community saying the same thing. So, you know, I've done more
research than you have on this. And I believe that the drug and
with this test, this now proves to me, they just want to get you
on this frickin pill. And none of it is good. Now what now
you're saying, I'm going down the tubes on this, this is
a disk. This particular spiel, was very popular in the 90s. And
then it fell into disrepute. Much it was promoted by the
retrovirus expert of experts at the University of California,
whose name eludes me, by the way, the HIV thing began in the
80s. There was no seven DS HIV period. Despite all the reading
you did, yeah, you know, it's I, I've talked to people as
Genentech and other places. And they did try it, you know,
because when this thing first happened, I remember reading
about when it first came out, in I think it was 83, when it first
got discovered, and it was becoming an epidemic really
quick, because nobody knew what the hell's going on. They Oh,
the Litany then was well just give it seven years, seven years
was the rule, anything that we know we've identified in seven
years, we can have a virus vaccination for it. And then the
problem was, of course, this thing was a genetic, I would
rather hear the notion that this was this was dreamed up at that
dead Maryland facility by the US government to kill off half of
Africa. Then does this feel that these drugs are killing people
that although the drugs are not healthy, and the fact that they
would tell you just to take the drugs over the counter is
probably not a good thing? I agree with that.
So So you have a very poor and weak argument. Of course, you
didn't have the same amount of time to prepare as I did.
I didn't have any didn't expect you to come off the wall with
this
and aids most definitely was detected in the 70s. I said late
70s. Most definitely, most definitely.
No, no, not most definitely. is realized the term grid was
misleading. AIDS was introduced in a meeting in July 1982. By
September 1982, the CDC started using the name aids, I'm talking
about HIV not aids,
I'm still not seeing HIV.
What are you looking at the frickin wiki pedia.
I'm looking at stuff.
And and by the way, I have a similar stance on cancer as
well. Fine. No, and I'm not on the you know, it was like, I
don't believe the monkey theory. Like some guy had sex with a
monkey. I don't believe any of that. And I and I've done a lot
of research on this. And I really think that you know,
people need to evaluate what's being pushed on them here. In
your so called risk group.
Yeah, well, I think that's that's a positive thing. But I
Okay, well, I know what so what do you what is your?
Well, I what I really despise. And I have the same day. Here's
your tray, single infection. 1969 Blah, blah, blah, HIV.
1978. You got Okay, you got me on that. But I remember when it
came to the fore was in the 80s
Yeah, that's when we decided it was a good scam.
This Okay, these cocktails. It's what is it? adam@curry.com.
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
I'll forward them to you. I guarantee you that a lot of
people agree with me.
I'm sure there are a lot of people agree with me they would
let's face it. This thing has been around now that you
mentioned since and my view my own future. Apparently that well
documented cases of HIV anti human dates back to 1959.
They've done nothing about it. And my own
future wife disagrees with me on this one. Now, I don't I don't
know if she's, I don't think she's she's witnessed aids a lot
more than I have. But I've you know, I have stacks of books
here. And I'd be happy to put some links in the show notes if
anyone wants to read it. But I really now with this thing where
here's the test. It has false positives. Oh, but here's the
pill. And by the way, you can just take this pill. This is
bullcrap. No, it's bullshit. It really is. And it's hurting
people. They really had so in before you run off and get your
little test and then go through the whole system. And the same.
Same thing for the frickin elites who won't have a
colonoscopy to check for prostate cancer because they
know that you know the treatment is going to kill them.
Yeah, well, it's like Janet Napolitano won't walk through
the neck The body scanner.
Exactly. But I certainly you have until Sunday if you want to
come back and revisit this and have a different opinion, but I
don't believe it was dreamed dreamed up as some virus to kill
everyone in Africa.
The human the Russian that there is a human immunodeficiency
virus is an actual virus. It is and it attacks your immune
system. And you know, how do you then start to die is when you
take in all this crap that's killing your insides and your
immune system can't keep up with it.
Okay, this is gonna this will be the this is what people want.
They want this sort of thing in the second half of this show.
They've been complaining bitterly.
You got this is not a crate. This is not I'm not crazy.
That's what they want it and you got it. Ladies and gentlemen,
live with it.
I'll give you crazy there's a new primetime reality show
coming out. Oh God very similar to Dancing with the Stars. It is
called you're gonna love this stars earn stripes. Celebrity
cast? Where star am I'll read the blurb here. A fierce and
emotionally charged new competition honoring America's
Armed Forces. The The cast includes and sorry, where is it?
I'm confused. Now. Where's my headset as a citizen. Of this
The cast includes four time undefeated world boxing champion
Laila Ali, actor Dean Cain, otherwise known as Superman,
actor and former National Football League player Terry
Crews. And multi platinum recording artist actor producer
and television personality Nick Lacey lychee I don't even know
what this guy is. But who do you think is hosting this show?
Gonna find out?
Well, normally you say Ryan Seacrest Guess what? I
was looking for that near
General Wesley Clark
All right. Talking about CO opting the guy
can you believe that? He's like unbelievable listen was was
listen man you got lucky we know you did that thing where you you
gave everyone all the all the countries we're going to invade.
You know we could have killed you. But we're gonna make you a
deal. You're gonna shut up and you're gonna get your own
reality show.
Surprise. You didn't have Mike Huckleberry.
How awesome is that? I can't wait debuts Monday, August 13.
Eight to 10pm this is a this is a massive major. ABC I think it
is. Surprise surprise gonna
definitely be watching. Yeah. So I got a couple of other clips I
want to get to do all the news came in. There's a really funny
story that ran on one of the, I think was one of the versions of
Al Jazeera. You know, Pakistan reopen you know, those trucks
have been held up for eight months. You know about this
right?
In pockets, right. Yeah. 100 $100 million extra a month
because we had to take a different route. He right.
And most of the trucks didn't take the different route.
They've been just sitting there for eight months
before you before you get into that. Can I just talk about the
apology or is that in your bid? It's in the bid. Okay, cuz I
have a thing about that. All right, go ahead.
So apparently they you know, they Pakistanis had all these
demands. And then it finally wrapped up with this and you
have to listen to this little ridiculous shortened version of
the report. But you'll you'll see the humor. When this wraps
anything from armored vehicles to common safety pins have been
transported through Pakistan without any transit fee. During
negotiations, the Pakistani side wanted $5,000 For every
container, but that demand was dropped. In the end, the
government in Assam avadh held the agreement to open the border
crossing as a major breakthrough. The opposition
plans to hold nationwide protests, even though the
Pakistanis would have wanted an apology from the US President.
It was the US Secretary of State who called the Pakistani foreign
minister to say sorry, and now it seems that was enough for the
Pakistanis to reopen those crucial supply lines.
First of all, if you ever die, this guy is my new co host.
Isn't he great? This guy rocks. It's very hard to talk with a
little bit of Leslie that voice. So yeah, this was well go ahead.
Give me your apparently you
know, these Pakistanis it was you know, I don't know what
happened behind the scenes. Obviously, it's not being
reported because no one tells us the real reality. but you know
they we want them but apology for this. It was the killing
that the NATO choppers did not a bunch of Pakistan was a drone
man wasn't a drone? No, no it was real. It was a gunship.
Okay? And so they kill a bunch of guys 24 Oops. And they
demanded an apology from Obama. And so finally Hillary. I didn't
know what she did behind the scenes, but she said she's
sorry. And that was good enough, then then things go bad. It's
just like dumbest story ever. Well, this
is what's interesting about the story. She didn't actually say
she sorry. She didn't say she was sorry. And there was a huge
conversation in the State Department press briefing about
it. How it cannot. I don't understand that in the press
briefing. Victoria Nuland married to one of the guys who
wrote The Project for a New American Century. And one of the
guys who like wrote the whole script that coincidentally came
true with the World Trade Center. 911. That's just a
little side note. She said the evidence is there. She did not
say I'm sorry. And this doesn't make it onto the news. No one
makes it onto the news is Hillary Clinton says I'm sorry,
everything Oh, good. Not true.
Tell us what led the Secretary to decide to use that word. We
are sorry for the losses?
Well, as Matt predicted, I'm going to say that the statement
speaks for itself. And I'm not going to parse the words that
were used. There you go. But, you know, as the statement makes
clear, there were mistakes made on both sides that led to the
tragic loss of life. And we are both sorry for that.
We are both sorry, though. On the next page, we it's printed
out here. That sounds like we're sorry for what the terrorists
did to us. Right.
Does it again, without without parsing this without part of
parsing the statement? I think the intent here is that we are
both sorry for the losses suffered by both our countries
in this fight against terrorists. Please, is it fair
to consider this an apology? Again, the statement speaks for
itself. The words are all there and I'm not going to improve on
it here.
So the lesson learned just come out. Right away and apologize
clearly without any funkiness.
Say that sounds like an editorial comment? I think the
statement speaks the statement speaks for itself. And as you
know, we've been working on this Glock issue for some time, this
apology to come forward. Again, there were a lot of issues that
needed to be worked through. You saw us do that at the technical
level, you've seen us do it at the political level. And that's
brought us to where we are here.
The question really is why did it take so long to come out and
say sorry, I mean, this isn't an Elton John song here. Sorry,
isn't the hardest word love this guy to say? It's pretty, it's
pretty easy to say I think. Yeah. It's not a question about
what about parsing the statement? Why did it why did it
take so long?
Well, as we've been clear about for quite these many weeks,
there were a number of issues that needed to be worked through
that allowed us to get us to where we are,
okay. Translation. She did not say we're sorry, she said, we
are both sorry for what the terrorists have done, which is
very different from what the media is telling you. Secondly,
the fees remain in place, we still have to pay the transit
fees, that's all over this. I didn't clip anything, but it's
all over the over the press release on this. And what this
means is that the pipeline deal is finally done. We've agreed to
the pipeline, the Tapi pipeline, which will eventually go through
Pakistan, into India and from India. It'll continue on to
China. So the deal is done. That's what this is all about.
And she did not say, well, sorry for killing you guys. Like, oh,
we're really sorry for what happened on both sides. Total
twisting of the actual facts.
And when she says I don't want to parse it, she continues to
parse it. That's what I found. That's
what's interesting. Hey, breaking news. Haha. Cyprus,
which was broke. They were looking for a bailout from the
EU and the IMF. Right. Headline News right now Cyprus says the
Russians are offering us a better deal. Oh, I can't get any
funnier. So Russian pipeline with the Israelis up through
Cyprus into Greece into Europe. Another piece another move on
the chessboard, ladies and gentlemen. So what will the
retaliation be from Turkey and the Saudis something? I think we
should blow something up.
Well, something's gonna happen you can count on it
This is phenomenal I love these these chess pieces are great to
watch.
And then I think some of were somehow related to this is this
Arafat story.
Oh the poisoning the polonium story
yeah I play this clip from from Van cat
you've confused me.
It says Arafat still dead while I was looking for Van cat.
Moving on now to other world news Yasser Arafat may have been
poisoned. Traces of polonium were found on toothbrush and
clothes of the late Palestinian president. According to a Swiss
Institute, his widow sue her fat has called for his body to be
exhumed for further tests. Now our fat died at a hospital in
Paris six years ago, after a sudden illness which baffled
doctors, many Palestinians have long suspected he was murdered
boy,
I know the old toothbrush thing I know what happened. He didn't
tip the hotel maid.
They don't have access to
so how does this tie in? How do you feel that ties your
myself this whole story is weird. For one thing, it's
showing up right now. It's an obvious spy story because
polonium is one of those things some, you know, the Bulgarians
would use or something right. I think there's a connection
between what's going on and this and this thing coming to the
fore. I think the tracks have been covered up by now to such
an extreme that no one's going to figure it out. But I think
there's something something important. Mm
hmm.
Yeah, I don't know how this guy was as corrupt as it gets.
I mean, the story definitely came out of left field. I hadn't
quite parsed How was going to work yet. So I really I don't
know. I really don't know. Well, we'll look into it.
I'm also one of the things I'm listening to Besides these, you
know, I'm listening to Van cat and all these different foreign
news things normally, so I'm getting weird stories that you
just don't hear. But the Korean news I'm starting to listen to
which is really off the wall because they're their context
is, is generally wrong. So when they when they do analysis of
something like they tried to explain something, they usually
the explanation is, you know, like, well play this When Korean
news clip
over 350 Russian musicians have donated songs to the so called
White Album declaring their support for the opposition
against Russian President Vladimir Putin. The title White
album comes from the color used by opposition supporters during
street protests over the past six months. musicians from all
genre have submitted their songs
completely overlooks the White Album real Genesis, right. The
Beatles. Yeah,
isn't. I'm just Googling this tell me that the White Album
isn't coming to iTunes or something like
that. Well, Korean news is not that connected to our public
relations machines. When you watch it enough, you go, these
people are are just completely. I mean, they're isolated. Yeah.
Okay. Anyway, that's the one. I don't think that then that. The
real Beatles White Album might be I think it's already on Yeah.
I thought I thought it could be a PR story. But no, it isn't.
I don't think so. And then there's another news story,
which I didn't know about. The Did you know about the Airbus
story, right?
That they're saying it was pilot error. No, no, no, I'm
talking about what they're up to play this. Oh, yeah. No,
I do. They're there. They're coming in. Yeah. They're coming
over.
The giant European planemaker Airbus has announced it's
setting up its first factory in the United States home of its
greatest rival Boeing. Work on the half a billion euro plant in
Alabama is scheduled to start next year with the production
lines rolling by 2015. And
while other companies even in America, in aerospace business
are laying off. We hired 4000 people last year, and we'll do
the same again. This year. We go wherever talent is.
The goal is to produce up to 50 a 320s a year in the United
States, the heart of the world's biggest market for that kind of
medium range aircraft.
Now, well, this is an obvious quid pro quo. This makes so much
sense. So we have the report today. This was nothing wrong
with the aircraft. This is the Air France flight that crashed
near Brazil. Nothing wrong with the aircraft. This was pilot
error. And so here's how it works. Listen, dude, Listen.
I'll tell you what, if you tell everyone that our plane doesn't
suck ass will build a factory in Alabama.
Well, what's interesting to me about the story is the fact that
the US government, in essence has screwed over Boeing. Well,
yeah, Boeing wanted to read wanted to build some of its jet
manufacturing plants in the South and the Department of
Labor told them they they would be in violation of some labor
laws because they have a unionized system up in Seattle.
And and then Boeing you know, had nothing but a struggle and
there and meanwhile they Airbus walks. You know what? waltzes
into Alabama and drops in a plant. I think there's more
jazzy, there's something screwy going on.
Well, there's always
there's always huge there's so much money involved in this. In
aviation, do they make they must make drones? Let's see,
make drones they probably do. Why not see, do
they make drones? Let me say, let's see, Arizona drone
companies
seem to be independent little companies owned by these big
guys. And it's hard to figure out who was really making the
drones.
Let me see if there's anything they must be making a drone.
Without seeing anything off hand, someone will look into but
I'm, as an airman I'm, I reject the human element. First of all,
it just makes no sense. You know, there's like, well, the
the Peto tubes weren't working and therefore, you know, they
made all the wrong decisions. This is like the number one
thing you will not number one, one of the things you learn even
on a Cessna is you have your Peto tube heating, which in the
smaller aircraft, you turn on manually, so as not to burn out
the the elements. By having them on all the time. By the minute
you go through clouds, you turn on your pico tube, so if you're
flying at altitude, and they were at altitude, typically, if
the pito tube freezes over, there's no air pressure coming
into the tube, and you will get a you know, it'll basically the
airspeed indicator will tell you, you're flying very, very
slowly. And if that is the case, you know, all the things that
happened that they say happened on board of this some fortunate
flight, make no sense, you know, that he was pulling the nose up.
I mean, the whole thing is, is I got to talk to some air guys
about it, but it sounds like a huge cover up. That really
doesn't sound right at all.
Well, Airbus is notorious for this they, if you remember the
old Paris Air Show or that one plane flew into the trees,
because it wouldn't take off because and they blame the pilot
who said he was doing everything right. But the computer decided
that these were doing demonstrations. Computer was was
was confused that drove the plane into the woods and the guy
lost his job.
Yeah, these are fly by wire, so you don't have a direct
hydraulic connection to the to the control surfaces. And the
computer is interpreting your pilot, and computers
interpreting the joystick and it all runs on Windows NT, by the
way, no joke for everyone. Yeah, yeah. runs on Windows NT.
John. That was the Airbus. Yeah, I'm buying this. Okay. Yeah,
give me some documentation that of course, I don't know anything
about aviation. So that doesn't mean you know about the software
that runs the air but just because you can fly a plane. Oh,
yeah. It doesn't make sense. I do no research. I want to hear
this The Windows NT reg. I mean, I know a couple of Navy ships
tried using Windows NT Deb operating, they gave up on it.
Okay, let's see what OH S does. Airbus run on Airbus three it
runs Windows. Yeah, it says it right there. Windows reverse hit
first hit.
It doesn't mean it's not running Windows as the as the
Entertainment Software.
I'm telling you, it runs Windows NT. I'm telling you. This is why
Windows NT had the POSIX system put in because they couldn't get
any government or aviation contracts without it being a
POSIX kernel. This is a there's a long history of stuff. I'll
get you some documentation.
I needed documentation.
And meanwhile, we had a big scare man. And we're like, you
know, all the newspapers in the UK were saying hey, it looks
like al Qaeda is gonna take down an airplane over the Olympics
I'm sure you heard about this
that's why they got the missile system up and CNN
man they I love it. They like bringing the headline and then
bring it right back down to debunking it. It's just It was a
beautiful
starting point. Al Qaeda operatives may be plotting to
take down a US plane in the days leading up to the Summer Olympic
Games in London. This is according to the Times of
London. Al Qaeda is Yemen based hair cell is believed to be
behind the planning of this attacks and its intelligence
correspondent Suzanne Kelly is of course on the security watch.
She joins me live from Washington. Suzanne, what are
your sources telling you about this
book? I'm really glad we're talking about this because there
was a lot of hype and a lot of concern about this when these
British papers came out with this reporting over the weekend
and you know, CNN has gone back and done that you Joe legitimate
and spoke with both officials in the UK and the US who are all
saying there was absolutely no specific credible threat about
bringing us found airliner anytime around the Olympics.
Now, that being said,
ixnay ixnay on the El COVID, a owning day of et je okay,
there's no x ray
in mind that the President did meet with his national security
team last week. And they did talk about efforts to prepare
for keeping the Fourth of July festivities secure, of course,
working with their British counterparts on the Olympics,
but again, no specific threat. So it sounds like there may be a
little bit more hype here than Oh, one thing to tell you
though, is the Department of Homeland Security has come out
and said that their security posture and quoting from them
here includes a number of measures both seen and unseen.
On scene secret measures, these are the best kind the ones that
you've been seeing, and
we will continue to respond appropriately to protect the
American people and what they're really asking us for people to
be vigilant and pay attention for general.
Citizen pay attention five,
however, just recently came out and publicly said Al Qaeda does
remain a very serious threat. They're still plotting. They're
still trying to find ways to attack but again, according to
US government officials and officials in the UK, there was
no specific threat tied to the Olympics right now. Okay, you
better just stay away from Kelly.
So speaking away from all the events
so she she talked about mi five mi five mi six is kind of the
the UK get my nation East equivalent of EMI of FBI CIA. So
we have a new boss at the BBC and new director general.
One of these intelligence agencies I bet,
yeah, this is George Entwistle and he has an interesting
record. In 2001. He took over as editor of BBC News night, less
than 24 hours before the 911 attack. And interesting that was
that the same BBC that said W Tec seven had collapsed 20
minutes before it did. You don't think that that's just a
coincidence, probably. In 1993. He joined on the record as a
producer, where he won the nickname General Sir George
Entwistle because of a track record of accurate items that he
could bring about the military's history and he had an obsession
with tanks and guns and stuff.
I like to stuff stuff.
This is a you know, and this is how it works. You know, you get
the new boss, and he is a shill for the intelligence services.
And just like our Syrian friend who defected, we're obviously
headed towards a huge amount of propaganda in Gitmo nation East
this guy is he's a he's a player. He's
a real player up logging guys, very good. He wears the
jumpers. He wears like little sweaters that you wear over your
shirt. Twitter came out with their Transparency Report. And
what that means is they have compiled a list of government
requests received for user information, government requests
received to withhold content, and DMCA takedown notices
received from copyright holders. And I'm looking at this list and
I can't believe that there's not a single Arab Spring country on
the list. Yeah. Seriously, not a single one is on the list. So
these countries I get no one asked for anything. No one's
doing any. I mean, you think at least that Randy Corbyn what's
his name?
Yeah, carbon, and carbon carbon. Your buddy?
Yeah,
I guess I guess his word is good enough, right. You don't need to
check and see if anyone's for real on that thing. Just just
phenomenally awesome. Really good. Of course, no one's
looking at that story. First not and then I have the final. I
think we can actually play the game the gym go to the gate to
the to the climate?
Yes, I was watching PBS as a part of my healthy news diet,
because you know, that's public television, John, that's, that
is supposed to be fair, balanced, unbiased, all of this
stuff. Right. Would you agree?
Oh, they're absolutely.
So Kevin Trenberth was on the show. And he is a climate
scientist at the US National Center for Atmospheric Research.
And he was discussing the correlation between extreme
weather and manmade global warming Now we know from all the
reports when it got really cold and it was snowing. We were told
that weather is not climate. Right.
Right. Okay, that's what they went on and on about weather is
not climate climate is something different. Right. Okay.
So I was more than prepared to hear that, again, on PBS, the
extremely accurate, you know, publicly funded. I mean, that
got commercials. But that's just to pay no attention to that. And
and I was surprised to hear the following. And so
these areas were the really hot and dry conditions leading to
wildfires have has moving around. We certainly don't
expect them to occur every year. But we do expect more of than
the odds are changing for these to occur with climate change
with the global warming from the human influences on climate
human insulin. I
wanted to ask you about to a scientist, what does this say is
going on?
Right off the script, by the way, where's the scientist?
What's going on?
Well, I think it's, you know, you look out the window, and you
see climate change in action.
Yeah, I saw climate change in action. Last night, they drove
the 40th year in a row, I go out to watch the fireworks in San
Francisco, but a big layer of fog rolls in and blocks all the
fireworks and that I'm waiting for that to change because of
global warming. But no,
I think I saw climate change drive by on a 10 speed bike, I
saw it an accident looked out the window like what's that
honey? Oh, I don't know. It's just climate change.
This is the way it gets manifested. This normal weather
events, there's the normal seasons, if we have June
temperatures in March? Well, you know, we have experienced them
before because we get them in June. If we have a very mild
winter, actually people like that, because the winter isn't
as cold breaking records, then now we're breaking records. But
we're in the in the peak of the heat season. And now we're going
outside of the realm of conditions previously
experienced. And so that's when the damage really becomes
extreme. And we get all of these wildfires, oh, houses have been
burned, tremendous damage to the environment. And
we never had before.
No, no
never happens.
No only with manmade global warming does this happen?
Because you can look out the window. And you can see climate
change right
consequences to come with regard to things like bugs that have
survived the relatively warm winter,
ah, the bugs,
John, stay tuned for the swarm of bugs, which will be blamed on
the manmade global warming, the locusts are coming.
So these are all manifestations of climate change that we expect
to see more of Oh,
I'm sorry. Am I misunderstanding what he's saying?
He's saying whether it's weather as manmade, I don't know what
he's saying the guy's an idiot as time goes on.
And and I just was hearing him a few minutes ago that there is
that the weather service reporting more than 2000 record
temperatures matched or broken just in the last week?
Yes, well, of course, it's easy to break an individual record
because the weather system just happens at that particular
location. With an unchanging climate, you expect that the
number of highs and the number of low temperature records are
about the same. And that was the case in the 1950s 60s and 70s.
And then by the 2000s, we were breaking high temperature
records at a ratio of about two to one over cold temperature
records. But this year, we had been breaking high temperature
records at a rate of about 10 to one. And you know, I mean,
ironically, there are some still still some cool spots, mainly in
the Pacific Northwest and cold temperature records continue to
be broken. So breaking records is not an indication of climate
change, but breaking records at a rate of 10 to one versus the
cold records. That's a clear indication of climate change.
Hey,
sciences and science.
Hey, I want to remind people to send us a note or a letter or a
question for the show that we're working on, which is show 20.6
We're taking we're gonna do questions and answers for you
know, if you have some question about the show word, how it got
started or anything like that. We only got five questions. Oh,
no, I
got a lot. I got a lot of questions they're sending you
got a question for this
that you can't ask ourselves a question. Hey, what's my
favorite black color? No, no, no, they're
asking good questions. I got some really nice question.
You got some Okay,
I got I got great questions. I got questions like, Who is this?
clippity clop you keep speaking?
Yes, some newbies I guess don't get some. That's why we're gonna
do this show than on set Hey, by the way, I want to mention
there's a long Reverend Manning clip that I had that I was at 20
minutes and I have to cut it down to like six or seven
minutes where he goes on a crazy rant. But he starts off really
sedate. And then he gets wild at the end. And it's actually going
to be quite funny. Let's do I do have a teaser. You can see where
it's headed. From my little intro here.
What am I playing?
You're off? You're terrible. Yeah, I always thought bailing
these. Yeah, well, I suck. Reverend Manning intro.
Oh, you mean this clip.
I want everybody to try to understand I'm not a right
winger. I'm not a left winger. I'm not a liberal, I'm not a
conservative. I'm not a Democrat. I'm not a Republican.
I'm a Christian. I'm not even black actually. And I have a
role to play in Christianity, as a preacher, as a pastor, of
which I have been doing for 30 years, and will continue to do
my parish, if you will, is located in the community known
as Harlem. But I preach to the world God's unadulterated word.
Now. I do not see the world politically. And so therefore,
please understand that I honestly think spiritually, at
present, the reason why so much of my time and energy has been
spent dealing with Obama is because Obama is the son of
Satan. He was just another politician that I would probably
be very casual at the most about him as I was with George Bush,
or with Bill Clinton. But when when a preacher looks up, and he
sees as Satan has said, one of his songs, then I spend every
waking moment of my day, talking about the fact that Satan son is
here.
Yeah, and my age theory is nuts.
Hold on a second. Oh, get
out there. And Obama's behind? What's?
up I got to start watching him again. I'm behind on my
Reverend, latest thing he did catch us up. He's, well, there's
a lot of people who have this theory to say, yeah, there's a
lot of people out there
the same thing with Bush? Well, I think you'll find it highly
educational. All right, or entertaining. And it'll be for
Sunday show.
All right. So we would really like you to consider us in your
media diet, which is, should be a healthy one. And we provide
value for value. We're doing all kinds of work. As you can tell,
I think we've done more. Look, news happens, right? News is
everywhere. It used to be the least people would report some
of the news. And then you get crappy analysis. So we started
off this program by bringing you some different and I think
better analysis. But now we actually have to go and find out
the news, because the news is not even being reported. Not it
is I'm sorry, except if Taco Bell has a new healthy gourmet
meal. That is what that is the news that is being served to
you. And we asked you for a value for value

slash and a. Right.
You nailed it.
All right. People are already sending me stuff I'm quite
familiar with but I'm forwarding it on to you, John, you
definitely want to take a look at the documentary house of
numbers, forwarded the email to you so you can take a look. And
I'm happy to send you some Amazon books. Now the Dvorak
