This
is your award winning get my nation media assassination
episode 1052 This
is no agenda with our
toes touching the bottom of the rabbit hole and broadcasting
live from the Capitol the drone star staying here in downtown
Austin Tejas capital at the drone Star state, as I said
before, hit the glue do in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry and
from Northern Silicon Valley where Hey, summer's here it's
foggy and cold. And Jhansi Devorah
Buzzkill.
Make sure I'm in the capital of the drone star stage. So make
sure I've said that enough times.
Yeah, say it again.
Now forget about it. We are in the capital of the drone Star
State. And in the morning to you my friend.
Good morning to you in the morning to everybody out there
ships and sea boots on the ground. Yes, indeed. Are the
subs in the water. Oh, man. Well,
Donnie don't
know what you want to talk about. And they
have no idea you have no idea what I want to talk about.
Well, I let me get yes, no. Okay. If you met if you mix clam
juice with tomato juice, you get Clamato. Oh, very close. And
there's a funny thing that I observed. I just I don't know if
it's still true, but I think maybe it's at least as of five
or six years ago. Yeah. In the United States. When you buy
Clamato juice, and you look on the ingredients it is powdered.
Clams is not really no clam juice in is just like a clam
extract or something. In Canada, you get actual clam juice.
Well, the Canadians they know their clams. Yeah. No, I was
gonna start with something else. In the Netherlands, there is a
heatwave across Europe, really. But the Netherlands is, as you
know, I grew up there. So I speak the language and people
are freaking out. And now the must learning that yes, the
Muslim clerics are going to do a mass prayer tomorrow, Friday to
pray for rain for the Netherlands. And I figured we'd
give them a little hand.
Well, we did get a request from a couple of days, not just for
the Netherlands, but some other parts of the world and in the
fires we have in California now, to give the range tickets shake.
Okay, so let's make sure that we know where we're directing this.
So one direction is the Netherlands. It's very pinpoint
very small country easy. I apologize. Belgium, or Germany,
if we hit you with the rain. It's hard to target a small
country like that. Then we need California in worlds.
We'll get in any other place with
anybody needs some rain? Watch this. Wait, wait, I'm already
going. And the third Ah, okay.
I didn't want one single one flip.
Okay, I did three flips. And remember, John and I are trained
professionals in the art of range psychology. Please do not
attempt this at home. And Austin, where? You know, in
three days, we'll get flooded out.
Well, yeah, that always happens. Well, yeah. Well, you're over
flipping. That's the reason.
Oh, please. How dare you critique my technique? Exactly.
So what else? I guess not not much going on?
And I'm not a hell of a lot. Well, yes. We had the drinking
game the other day as Amazon glitched out. Do you seen a
single report explaining what actually happened?
Why would they bother? What's the point? This is this is
the fear that you and I have spoken about is you've written
about it. If Amazon were to really go down and it affected
us too because I was trying to change something on the server
we use Amazon Web Services for hosting the RSS feed and I
couldn't get to it.
Somebody somes heads are gonna roll. Yeah, I
feel bad for the dudes named Ben because you can just imagine
when you get that day and it was fun watching the the Amazon
stock price, which is out of anyone's range, really like
$1,800 a share. But in anticipate because they were so
smart. I think they thought they were smart by launching at 3pm.
Eastern to launch the Amazon Prime Day, which should be right
at the end of the market. And just as planned, the stock went
went up like 40 or 50 points and then all the glitches took place
and it crashed after hours. But they just was no big deal. We
still have still made $3 billion. Yeah, some shoppers
experienced some issues. And oh man, all I saw was dogs, dogs,
dogs, dogs. Did you see this?
I know Oh, talking about oh for the dog, the dog on the Amazon
site
and not just one they had the dog. So instead of a 404, or a
server overload or whatever the problem was, they defaulted to a
picture. But there was a rotation of the dogs of Amazon
and they were cute dogs. No doubt was I guess it's the
employees dogs and they must have had, I must have seen 40 or
50 different ones to refresh.
Yeah. So that I didn't know there was there was anything
more to it than just a picture
of a dog. No, no, it was the dogs of Amazon. Glamour shake.
They're
making this sounds like AWS is a dog. Dad Association.
I agree. I agree. Anyway, but let's hope that they
do. Is this. Why nobody's playful kittens.
I know. The CTO there. Verner, Verner Vogel's. He's a Dutch
guy. I sent him a note, like, Hey, man, how's your day? Been?
Everything rockin over there? For guy? Yeah, then, of course,
we had the big Helsinki Summit. Which,
of course, that's the top of the news.
Yeah, well, there's a lot more. And there's a lot more about the
summit to be discussed.
As I was throwing people under the bus to start on this report,
you know,
well, the only thing I could dive the same issue, the only
thing I could think of is maybe just a little bit of historical
context about Russia. And I would say starting with Reagan,
certainly bush and definitely the Clintons. You know, when the
Soviet Union collapsed, you know, everybody moved in and we
started everybody. I think the US certainly was just stealing
their shit. We're taking their resources, the oil, the gas,
huge companies were set up everyone was taking advantage of
Russia and Putin care weakened condition. Yes. And now we can
condition that once Yeltsin came in. We also
moved NATO toward them when they're well, where they
couldn't do much. Yeah, we,
of course, we moved closer. Yeltsin came in that he was the
drunk. It was the Yeltsin was the drunk wasn't Yeah, Yeltsin
was the drunk.
He was not the only drunk. But yes, he was the major drunk.
But I had a couple of conversations with with some of
our cue level intelligence producers, and I
should also mention something else, Russians, real Russians,
Russians to what you would like it, like if they were, if there
was an Oxford in Russia, the normal high level Russians, they
always said, or I was told that Yeltsin spoke like I eat
apparently, yells Yeltsin's Russian was kinda like this is
translated into Russian. Right,
right. Right. Well, and he was kind of put in, and from what I
understand, that's when we actually helped Putin become a
higher level at the KGB. And Steven Yost steaming him up
getting him ready. I think he was definitely helped by our
intelligence community. And then once he came in, you know, Putin
came in and start cleaning up, which of course, created a huge
oligarchy. He's probably one himself. But let's not forget,
Mark rich and there was just a lot of a lot of Western British
To be specific, and American people building Magary
tremendous wealth in Russia at their weakest moment. stolen.
Yeah, well, of course, it was stolen. So, you know, there's,
there's a historical context here of America, messing with
Russia, that you have to take into account. But throughout
that period, we've always had wasn't Ben Putin come to the
ranch to the bush ranch. Horrors? Oh, the horrors that he
came to wasn't quite as bad as what happened in Helsinki.
Ranch. Well, now media.
So I, you know, and there's a lot to discuss about what went
on there. But just the obvious. I think that I don't know if he
was weak. And, and, and just misspoke on purpose. He
certainly buckled and clarified, very weak clarification, Eve.
Well, the
coronation call, I think, cause more trouble than it was worth
but I agree.
Oh, maybe not. But it's, you know, even the guy is so
transparent. Sometimes. When they'll say well, you know, this
is a double negative. So you the way I see that is there was a
meeting and they said, hey, we'll just change wood to wood
and he said, that's a double negative. I would never do that.
You know, it's like these things pop out. Oh, yeah, I know what
you're talking about. So we fucked up really badly. And I
think he dented his reputation severely will he get past that?
Absolutely.
Well, where was what what did you perceive as the fuckup?
That the fuck off was, was that he that he changed his story
that to me was the worst part. If he had if he had stuck to his
story and said, I don't really believe the Russians did it,
that will be one thing. But then to live and change your story I
thought was incredible.
I thought it was. Trump has been such a kind of a bonehead in a
lot of ways, a bumbling guy that may be smarter than we think he
is. I just don't see this being any thing more than a hiccup. I
mean, it's just it's just another.
That's different. I don't I don't think it's I just said I
don't think it's a problem for him at all.
But well, let's listen to what my favorite bit on this came in
late. This was Tucker Tucker Carlson who was there in
Helsinki. And he did an intro to Trump's May a culpa, if you want
to call it that. And I just thought this was pretty funny
because it brought back it brought back memories of if you
could find it by where you're playing his memories of Ron
Paul, discussing and liking some weird setting how the CIA took
over the government in 1962 after Kennedy was assassinated.
Good evening, welcome
to Tucker Carlson Tonight. We just landed from Helsinki back
in the nation's capital where it is hot and intense. We're gonna
have our full extended interview with the President from
Helsinki, we're gonna show that to you in just a minute. We
asked him, of course, about Russia, but there are, believe
it or not many more important and pressing issues on the world
stage, not just Russia. And we ask the President about those as
well bring the whole thing to you coming up in just a second.
But first tonight with remarkable speed and intensity
the media the foreign policy establishment, both political
parties have come together as one to attack the President for
his meeting yesterday with the Russian President Vladimir
Putin, Anderson Cooper, John McCain, Mitt Romney, they all
described the President's remarks about Russia as
disgraceful. Former CIA Director John Brennan call those remarks
treasonous, and grounds for impeachment. Nancy Pelosi and
Chuck Schumer announced that Trump was being blackmailed by a
foreign power. Others accused him of being a sleeper agent, a
spy, one member of Congress from Tennessee called for a military
coup against the presidency. Well as the rage storm swirled,
the president bowed to the inevitable, genuflecting before
US intelligence agencies whose judgment must never be
questioned and recited the now obligatory oath of loyalty to
the spy bureaucrats now in charge of our country.
Yeah. Let me play a little bit longer or about a minute 15 of
some media reaction right after the Helsinki q&a ended. All
right, first, deep breath. This was a big
day you have been watching perhaps one of the most
disgraceful performances by an American president that I've
ever seen. It
was probably the low point of the presidency. Wow,
disgusting.
President Trump is not on America's
team was nothing short of treasonous. Donald Trump
betrayed America. We have a president who is betraying us he
was like a scared
child the way he coward Trump was pretty nervous. Most people
are nervous when meeting their boss. He embraced him. He
validated him while trashing his own country and gave
the middle finger to America embarrassing the country. The
single most embarrassing performance that I've ever seen,
the United States was attacked and President Trump today sided
with the enemy. It is disgraceful, refusing to side
with his own country, his own country, you
should call this the surrender Summit.
This is evidence of collusion. What we saw yesterday was
collusion and he's basically saying,
I'm with Fred
why he did so I can't really get into that. I'm not a doctor
Trump was so interesting. It's no wonder he leaves the Russian
summit with one balls and nice. Yes, although
I think Putin still has a set of Trumps balls all the time for
Trump to put his foot down. And he did right on America's dick.
Sorry, it's not funny.
Ah, thank you very much, John Astor, for putting that together
for us. He did it to music to friend of show. That's good.
That
was a terrific summary. Yes. And pretty close to the truth. I
have a couple of clips that I'll play after you talk a little
more but there was that little piece of with Rachel to
beginning and I don't want to do this so early in the show, but
since that was thrown in, Oh, I gotta catch my breath. That was
part of a longer little exposition she had at the
beginning of her little spiel, she talks forever to get to the
point she does but I got an ISO that's quite interesting.
Okay. The Rachel ISO. Hey, yes, yeah, I figured you might pull
that one. Well,
not that deep. Now.
Here's what I think happened in Trump's mind and probably Lee
what was going on in general, he is so wrapped up in himself
about no collusion, which, you know, the indictment certainly
doesn't show any collusion. And you know, there's probably was
no collusion. But he's, he's so he's so wrapped up in it, that
he's just thinking about I don't think he was thinking straight.
And I and I also believe that had conversations that went on
that we didn't really hear much about. But let's go back to the
initial assessment, because what he said was I in a later tweet,
I trust my intelligence sources, the the sanction, and we have so
many things to talk about the sanctions were were very
detailed, and I have some background on that as to you
know, this was a hack by the Russians is very clear from the
indictment. But the intelligence community all agreeing which was
not true because it was CIA, FBI, NSA was reluctant said,
Well, he was high probability, none of it was all a it wasn't
all intelligence agencies. It was a report presented like lie.
That's a lie. It's a does they get sick of it?
Yeah, me too. And this started in the report came out in
January 28 2017. And I have a copy of the report in the show
notes. You know, this not at all a specific on a technical level,
as a lot of you know, probably this how it happened. But here
we have the Director of National Intelligence Clapper, in January
2017. Talking about this report. Well, the
news gods have dropped into our laps, yes, as they always do the
perfect nexus of national security and politics, with the
hack of DNC emails and the alleged participation in Russia.
So my colleagues and I, at CNN, but also other outlets have been
told by and you've seen the reports by a number of officials
who've pointed their finger without much hesitation at
Russia, official from the White House describes said to me,
there's little doubt it's Russia. I just wonder, does the
intelligence community share that certainty?
Well, I'll just say that. I don't think we're quite ready
yet to make a call on attribution. I mean, we'll all
know, they're just a few usual suspects out there. So but as in
terms of the
the process that we try to stick to? I don't think we're ready to
make a public call on that
yet. So and is that because you haven't made a decision to
publicly name and shame or because there's still some
uncertainty? A little both? Well, both. Do you think that
that we in the media, but also some officials who've been
speaking to us in the media have gotten ahead of the certainty on
this?
I guess? Yes. I do. And, frankly, taken aback a bit by
somewhat, you know, hyperventilation over this. I
mean, you know, I'm shocked. Somebody did some hacking.
That's never happened before.
No, and that was the attitude because that has always been the
attitude where everyone is always hacking everybody else
one way or the other.
And before you go on, that was in 2017. Yet the litany of
complainers are all talking about how they all 17 agencies
agreed in 2016. Never true, it was never true was never true.
It's a lie.
So that is the report that Trump is actually disagreeing with,
but doesn't matter. Because, you know, it's the lie is there,
it's done. You and I are not going to change it. We can just
keep mentioning it. Yeah, we can mention in bitching, but now to
the technical part of what what the accusations are? It was,
it's so really unbelievable, truly, not to be believed that
the FBI could go to this level of understanding which people
had done what, what they had done outside of the hack itself,
you know, Google searches, all kinds of other things that they
were doing, presumably on their personal machines.
But you have a vague reference here. I'm not sure what you're
talking about. Oh,
well, I'm leading into a clip. The
premise I'm not understanding the prime.
Okay, so the indictment from Mueller, the 12, man and yes,
the 12 man indictment goes to an incredible technical detail
about how these 12 Russians who work for Gru and by the way, I
think that there's probably 500 Russians who work for GRU, who
are doing this, and let's not forget, you know, Hillary's
technical experts and how we were messing around with Putin's
election this has gone on for a long time. But like everything,
you know, we humans are very bad at understanding where the real
risk is, you know what the real risk is it is it opioid crisis
or is it traffic accidents? Or is it 100,000 people who die in
hospital? You know, we're not good at that. So this is now top
of mind, this is the most important thing. Let's please
not discuss that what the John Podesta phishing, which is also
blamed on these 12 G or Gru agents that actually uncovered
corruption within the Democratic Party, where they were screwing
Bernie Sanders. And you know
that that was the deal. That was the DCS. Right? Yeah. But that's
but that's also all in this intelligence report, which went
to such a deep level saying that the investigators who publish
this indictment knew even what the GRU agents were googling on
their desktop machine. So I'm not sure how I'm not sure how
it's okay to the indictment say, Hey, by the way, we're at well,
the quote is up in your business, because even renowned
security expert, Steve Gibson could not understand the level
of this detail, any any linkages between what would appear to be
otherwise separate events, any reuse of IPs of, of email
accounts of obscure domains, and so forth, that can be used, if
you have, like encyclopedic knowledge of every packet that
transmitted the internet during that time. You know, you can
figure all this out. But I don't know how you do this short of
having that kind of visibility into Internet traffic. To me,
this suggests there is a level of surveillance far in excess
of, of what I at least have assumed, was technically
feasible. It's amazing. Yeah. And I agree that the only other
explanation is, we pretty much said, Hey, we know we're in your
systems, we are watching you all the time, which I don't think is
a very smart thing to do, if that's how they got this
information,
in fact, is a very dumb thing to do. But the but as you're
revealing, you know, revealing methodology, it's, I just think
it's bull crap. Oh,
well, let's just remember that the FBI was sent away, they did
not get access to the server, they were sent a appropriate
image. Now the word appropriate is in there for a reason and
appropriate image of the server, which may very well have been a
virtual server, I don't know. But a snapshot, which also
includes the stuff that was happening in memory, etc. They
got this all from CrowdStrike. And we have to remember, the
CrowdStrike run by Sean Henry, who was the Executive Assistant
Director of the criminal criminal cyber response and
services branch of the FBI promoted by Robert Mueller. And
so, you know, it's, I don't think it's correct. But Muller,
I guess, when like, hey, whatever your report is, it's
good enough for me might want to point out the CrowdStrike is
most recent series D financing for $100 million included Google
capital. So there's a lot of the conflicts of interest. Or some
people might want to recuse themselves when it comes to
working with an outside company. But it's not even really stated
as it was done by an outside company. It's not it's not
stated? Yeah. Well, if there's a security firm one or something
like that, but there's a there's a lot. There's a lot of cross
pollination there. And then the FBI official overseeing the task
force left on Friday. I didn't know that. Yeah. Yeah, he walked
out the door
before before you play anymore. I want to play an interim clip
that is kind of, I think, draws attention to kind of a problem
that I'm always seeing here and this is the this is a local
story, just a piece of a little bitty chunk. Call local analysts
aghast.
Our political analyst Larry Gerson joins us this evening.
President Trump sided with Vladimir Putin. What did we just
see this morning in terms of Washington, told
me sided with black, we're eating side by side with
anybody. What does that mean? You just say yeah, this
was this was used more frequently cited, he cited.
Well, he said I, what he said literally was I have no reason
to think why Russia would do this.
So continue to play just
this morning in terms of watching this unfold With the
world? Well, first of all,
it's hard to know what happened when you talk to their meeting
about their meeting why nobody was there, except for two
interpreters. There were no note takers. Now, typically in a
meeting like this, you have no takers so that when it's out
when it's done, the reporters and others get what we call a
readout. We know nothing of what happened except what we heard
afterwards at the press conference, and what does that
leave us with knowing what President Trump really said,
given his reputation for his inability to sometimes tell the
truth or at least mended? It's hard to know, and we have to
rely on that meeting. Okay. So
afterwards, they have this news conference.
What surprised you the most
surprise about astonished I was astonished. I was astonished
because he threw his intelligence community under the
bus, astonished because at the time of his inauguration, 17
agency heads, all of them related to intelligence said
astonished because last Friday, last Friday, Director of
National Intelligence net that Dan Coates said the Russians
were still interfering. He was red light, blinking time as it
was right before 911 Astonished also, because last Friday,
Director Muller I should say Special Counsel Muller announced
the indictment of 12 Russians to go along with 19 other
indictments, the President says he needs to see evidence. I
don't know what other evidence he needs.
In the red light blinking came from Senator Blumenthal who this
is a call back to the beginning of your clip, he has a novel
idea Republicans
have a historic responsibility as do all of us because the red
light is flashing as the Director of National Security
Dan Coats
now is that a talking point? Do you think or did your guy just
just copy that one thing? It's like
these guys that there could be Oh, you might be right, you may
be a talking point, but I'm gonna go back to that clip mine.
At the end, he says Trump wants to see more evidence. And he
says What more evidence does he need? And what he refers to as
What more evidence does he need into 12 indictments and 19
indictments and and the and the bull crap avato. Everybody
agreeing during his which is not true, as you prove just what the
clapper clip. That was just a lie that he just threw out
there? What evidence does he have? Does it get somebody being
indicted is not evidence? No. Well, that's just a happenstance
that's lost in the in the shuffle. Listen to the rest of
this clip of Blumenthal, though flashing
as the Director of National Security Dan Coates put it, much
as it was before 911. We are in a 911 national emergency.
Because our country is under attack. Literally, that attack
is ongoing and pervasive, verified by objective and
verifiable evidence. Those words are again from the director of
national security. And this 911 moment demands that we do come
together, issue a subpoena not only for the translator, and the
notes, but also for the national security team.
He wants to subpoena the translators. What did they say?
I think that's I'm sure they could do that. I'm sure they can
subpoena the translator. What did he say? Oh, my goodness,
that would be this is shameful that that Blumenthal or anybody,
and then you might be right. There's just possible talking
points out there because there's that mug. And I don't know if I
put a picture of the mug in the Yeah,
you did. You did you did the well, it was the 911 11. Nine
was the mug and mark. And here's a clip from Jill wine banks. Now
she was a prosecutor in the Watergate scandal. And she takes
it to the next level.
At some point. This has a complexity that's even richer
than the one you were involved in with the with the Watergate
investigation in that. Nobody thought that and Richard Nixon
was working on behalf of an enemy of the United States. How
do you even make sense
of this? You can't make sense of it. It's very hard to possibly
analyze. And you're quite correct. The burglars were
Americans. They worked for the White House, they worked for the
committee to reelect the president. They weren't foreign
agents. And yet we were burglarized this time by foreign
agents. And it's just as serious to me as the Cuban Missile
Crisis in terms of an attack or the 911 attack. The President is
taking the side of the people who attacked us instead of
trying to prevent a future attack. He has done nothing to
make sure that the elections four months away, are going to
be safe. And I would say that his performance today will live
in infamy as much as the Pearl Harbor attack or Kristallnacht.
And it's really a serious issue needed to deal with. There's
there's no explanation for what could be motivating him no
matter what Russia has on him.
That's right. That's our June You're on deck Cristalle not on
that that is that's taking it a bit far but Richard angle always
surprises. One of
the things I do think is that been a problem and I don't know
how to address it I'm, I'm sort of with Bill I'm a little bit
gobsmacked and flummoxed at the same time. We are under attack
from Russia. If there were physical missiles like during
the Cuban Missile Missile Crisis, Americans would be in
the streets and protesting and asked them for the President to
protect us. These are invisible missiles, he's a digital
missiles that are going into our system,
digital missiles. And it really is the education
in golf course being a CIA frontman. That means CIA still
going after Trump. They want to elect some
digital missile slipped? Yeah. Well, there was there were some
other noises. Luckily, although you had to search quite far and
wide. And I have now Professor Stephen Cohen, who we like a
lot. He was on a couple of different shows. But I found a
clip of him with what's the name MEARSHEIMER I also a Russian
scholar professor. And they talk about exactly what's going on.
It's a little longer clips about three and a half minutes. But
this was on vice VICE News on HBO. And what I liked so much
about how they set it up. Well, you'll you'll hear as, as
they're going to Jews to American professors, very well
schooled in Russia, its relationship to the United
States, its position in the world for decades. These guys do
know what they're talking about. They they have standing. They
they're either emeritus or you know, they're the real
professors. And here's how vice positioned them and what they
said despite the
overwhelmingly negative reaction to today's summit. Not everyone
thinks the President's blame America first approach to Russia
is wrong. Michael Moynihan met with two American foreign policy
experts, old comrades Stephen Cohen and John Mearsheimer.
So she says the whole thesis is that Russia or that Trump is
using is blame America first. What is he blaming America for
blame America first and then two American professors prefaced as
comrades.
All right. Let's miss it again. Thanks.
The President's blame America first approach to Russia is
wrong. Michael Moynihan met with two American foreign policy
experts. We have old comrades Stephen Cohen and John
Mearsheimer.
That's that's that's, I mean, it's pretty obvious what you're
trying to say there. Oh, calm Rao. Clearly these professors
have been co opted by Putin as a result here.
They're admittedly unpopular case for the rightness of
Russia.
I could go down a list of what people have called you.
Go ahead, we should Scrooge of Putin, mainly Putin apologist
couldn't
apologist. But they right.
There's been an tsunami of these attacks on me. Many and once
distinguished publications, there is a market and appetite
for this defamation. They're uninformed.
The question you want to ask yourself is Why won't people
engage in a legitimate debate with people like Steve and me?
And I believe the reason they won't is they would lose the
debate. I'm fully confident of that. And I'll
summarize how I see it. Not sure John fully agrees. At the moment
as we talk. We are eyeball to eyeball, given new Cold War with
Russia.
Putin was one of the few leaders in the world who stood up to the
Americans. And the main manifestation of that was the
Ukraine crisis. There's a big question here with regard to the
Ukraine crisis, who is principally responsible for
causing? And I think that the evidence is clear that it's the
United States and its West European allies.
It was deeply rooted in Washington, man, if you take
Ukraine, bring it into the West, militarily, economically,
through the EU through NATO. Russia would be nothing more
than what Obama call a weak regional
power. But don't those countries have a right to decide whether
or not they want to join NATO?
No, they don't. They don't. That's a that's a very foolish
way of thinking about
it. And I'm just talking to the people of those countries who
say we want to join NATO. We were under the boot heel of
Russia for too long. We want to join this alliance, slightly
different than then
you're assuming that people make foreign policy. Any fool could
have told you that by bringing in countries on Russia's
borders, with historical grievances against Russia. We're
going to diminish everybody's national.
That's exactly right. Let's say the Soviet Union or China at
some future point forms of military alliances with Mexico
and Canada on our border. We would never tolerate it.
Let me ask it, presumably you and I John would demand that the
American President react. What are you be aggressive,
aggressive, would that be aggression if he reacts would be
defensive. We've demonized Putin. And we put nice Russia so
we've demonized Russia. Russophobia is running amok in
this country. I've seen these things from the inside. I
rethought and rethought how we got to the edge of war with
Russia. We haven't been since Cuba 1962. And I have concluded
it is 95%. Our own doing
speaking percentages, would you see that percentage of war
breaking out between the US and Russia as getting smaller with
Donald Trump in office?
Trump is wrong on a lot of things, but on the thing that I
care most about, because I think it's existential, because I
think it's life and death. If he means what he said he was right.
It would be great to cooperate with Russia, I would go farther.
It's imperative. So how's he doing so far? Well, we don't
know yet. We will have to see but the attack on him is
ferocious President of the United States is being kept from
doing what we've demanded of every president. Keep us out of
war with Russia. We crippled Trump. Now on the other hand,
Trump doesn't cripple wheezing, he just presses on, rightly or
wrongly. So I hope that he can reach a series of agreement that
will keep us safe.
The tremendous hostility in the establishment to this meeting
that Helsinki is largely driven by the fact that people want to
undermine Trump. But furthermore, they have to
explain how he got elected in the first place. It can't be
because Hillary Clinton or the Democrats didn't run a good
campaign. That can't be because the American people are that
foolish. It has to be because they were tricked.
Opponents of Donald Trump are using Putin as kind of a patsy
or of fall guy to attack
yes is a hammer to beat him over the head that these
people would prefer trying to impeach Trump to averting a war
or war with Russia. If it's come to that, Trump's no longer to
blame, we are ourselves.
And I think that's the last you're gonna hear on any type of
reasonably mainstream media of these two guys. They've written
comrades, the comrades and what the hell do they know, really.
But I do have some thoughts about what is really going on.
It's not like we haven't kind of touched on this over the course
of the past many years. And part of it came up in one of Putin
statements, which is under discussed, and that is this,
we can bring up the Mr. Mr. Browder. In this particular
case. Business Associates of Mr. Browder, have earned over one
and a half billion dollars in Russia. They never paid any
taxes, neither in Russia nor in the United States. And yet the
money that escaped the country, they were transferred to the
United States. And then they sent a huge amount of money 400
million as a contribution to to the campaign of Hillary Clinton.
Well, that's their personal case, it might have been legal,
the contribution itself, but the way the money was earned was
illegal. So we have a solid reason to believe that some
intelligence officers accompanied and guided these
transactions. So we have an interest of questioning.
Now, this is not really discussed much because it goes
to the Magnitsky Act, which no one really understands nor wants
to talk about unless you understand that Browder's lawyer
was Magnitsky, who, you know, there's this, he was killed by
Putin. Russian, this is in great detail. Yeah. But it's very hard
for for the mainstream to get into this because all of us have
these uncomfortable names start to come up. But this is part of
the rape of Russia, and Browder who became a British citizen
because he didn't want to get in any trouble in the US.
Because he didn't want to pay taxes. That's trouble in the US
the
my book, trouble in the US. But then what Putin says is, you
know, I don't know but $400 million went to Clinton's
campaign, and that's not going to come up anywhere in the M
five M analysis. Luckily, we have former CIA agent Kevin,
what is his name? Yes, Kevin ship, who I'm sure will be
deemed to be a crackpot and numbskull, but he kind of
touches on what was going on and it comes back to an age old
saying they use in the Netherlands. What
she did was she formed basically the equivalent of an
international super PAC to funnel money through the uranium
one deal as big as 140 plus million dollars into the Clinton
Foundation. She did that because these donations went to secret
office Sure bank accounts, they are not bound by FOIA laws in
the United States because it's foreign money. These foreign
donations into the Clinton Foundation through Uranium One
are not bound by congressional subpoena. So her secret server
and this whole deal with the Clinton Foundation essentially
was set up as basically for foreign espionage to conceal all
this, especially from Congress. I think there were $2 billion
that went into her presidential campaign over four years through
Uranium One Uranium One was a front company for her to launder
money globally. So it wouldn't be under US law. This was the
the Russian intelligence had targeted the Clintons for this
operation. And the most bizarre thing about it amongst many is
that Robert Mueller was in charge and running a
counterintelligence investigation against Russia.
During the uranium one deal. He knew that the Russians were
engaged in extortion, bribery, racketeering, as you mentioned,
related to Uranium One, he approved the uranium one deal
knowing that these millions of dollars are going into the
Clinton Foundation. And he ignored the fact that the
Russians had targeted and essentially co opted Hillary
Clinton and will funneling money into her campaign and of course,
500,000 bucks for Bill Clinton to go over there and speak and
Robert Mueller in charge of FBI counterintelligence, and that
investigation, ignored the whole thing, brought no charges and
just basically put it under the blankets and covered it up.
Now, that's just more of a backgrounder, the way I see it.
And this is why we've had this intense hatred and blaming
everything on Russia since Hillary lost. Is everybody all
these names, we're all complicit. I'm pretty sure that
factions if not Putin himself, were running Hillary Clinton
makes nothing but since Why wouldn't he and she had set up a
front, a front company to launder money for herself and
for her campaign. And Muller actually was intimately
involved, not just on the sign off, I believe he actually
delivered Yurei. Personally, he delivered it, it's pretty well
documented, and everyone was hunky dory and things were going
ahead as usually they do, certainly with the rape of
Russia, and Russia's paying for everything this is all great own
will screw him later, as Hillary has done in the past. And she
lost. And that was unexpected. And then everyone had to cover
up but there was so much that couldn't be covered up. They
just flipped it but you say from beating yourself up due to
health, you accuse others that of what you are guilty of. And
they were colluding with Russia. Nothing better than that. Just
flip it on its head.
Well, it kind of caught Trump off guard. The problem is is
such a weak aspect to it, that it's kind of I mean, you can
yell and scream about Trump and does Helsinki thing, which to me
from the get before I have I have a clip I wanted to play.
But before I get there, I want to mention something I kind of
stumbled on. I stumbled on ABCs online to have an online show.
That is got some radio guy with a really unbelievably nice voice
already. And he's got the Big Mike The Big Mike on his cans,
and he's there they got a camera on him. And what it what it
looks like he's doing. It's part of ABC News. And I don't know
how many people watch it or can even find it. But I found it. He
brings on everybody that it looks like he's doing like a
minor league thing. It looks like he's running our farm team.
It looks like he's bringing on different congressmen and all
these people to clear them for the evening news. Oh,
to see if they have the right story. Yeah, ha.
And so he brings on these different guys and they get they
had all the usual suspects. And then to test I guess, to see
what he's gonna say they bring on Rand Paul. And Rand Paul does
it did it I think that gives a beautiful presentation makes
nothing but sense. And they cut him out of the picture at ease
mentioned once that his son was and now there was anyone who
said anything kind of normal about what they saw. We're at
this Trump Helsinki thing, which is the way we saw was a guy goes
to meet the Russians. They didn't want him to do that. They
didn't want him to meet Putin. They didn't want any of that to
happen. And no matter what he did what he said they're gonna
blast him for it. And lit and this clip kind of comes out of
one guy bitching and moaning then the guy transitions to Rand
Paul is a little longer than I like, but I think you'll like it
is the Rand Paul clip. Oops, I'm sorry. This is not the long form
of Helsinki. No, the Rand Paul clip. Oh.
I don't have a Oh, the Rand Paul clip.
Sorry. Yeah. Doug Randall. Rand Paul clip
I heard it first. I
was giving you George he's a he's put Russia back Back, not
just on the map, but at the top of the heap. He was in a very
self satisfied mood today.
ABCs Terry Moran traveling with the president in Helsinki. Oh,
you're right.
This is one of those ABC News 1010 wins
a terrier. Thanks to you. And we return our conversation to ABC
News, political analyst Steve Roberts, for his thoughts on as
Terry suggests, what may have been a very comfortable
atmosphere for Vladimir Putin today. Well, Terry made
a very good point. This summit is the culmination of a long
history here in the post Soviet world of Putin trying to restore
Russia to its former glory, its former position as one of the
two great powers in the world. And President Trump handed Putin
two victories today. The first was just simply to be there. And
the second was to talk about the two world's superpowers. This is
exactly what Putin is wanting to hear for many years.
Steve, Senator Rand Paul, Republican of Kentucky, joins us
now, Senator, thank you, you had said that you were glad
President Trump was meeting with Putin that this kind of dialogue
was good. Based on the outcome, you still feel that way? Yeah,
you know, if
you look back at our history, we've had some very dire times
with Russia, the Cuban Missile Crisis, maybe being the height
of that. But during the Cuban Missile Crisis, we had a direct
line to Khrushchev, we also at the time, had an ambassador in
Russia, and we carried on dialogue. So I think it's it's
incredibly important to have dialogue. And I think the people
who are criticizing having dialogue with Russia and are
overstating that, somehow this grants legitimacy to Putin, or
people who aren't really looking at this in a very realistic way.
I think foreign policy realism looks at the world more as it
is, and looks as though at the world in a way in which we try
to minimize the risk of conflict. But Did
the President have to be so seemingly ingratiating, or at
least on the same page when it came to the issue of meddling
and interference?
I think often when you meet with people in person, that the
simply disabilities of meeting together in person show and a
show of rapport are greater than they are when we're discussing
our differences. And so I think we should continue to air our
grievances air our differences. But to tell you the truth, I
wouldn't always air them directly in a confrontational
way in a in a meeting like this. And so I think there are other
ways of bringing that forward. I think some of the people were
very naive or saying, well, he should demand that he admits
that they meddled in our in our politics, and they're never
going to do it again. One, they're never going to admit
they did it. And we appear to have evidence that they did
meddle in our campaign, but they're never going to admit it.
And the thing is, is if you look at things in the totality of
this, you look at the history of meddling in elections, all of
the nations that can spy to spy on each other and all the
nations that can meddle in elections do meddle in other
elections.
Senator Paul, we thank you very much. And we continue our
coverage from CBC News.
Yeah, yeah, I think you're right and cutting room floor.
Well also, I think the only place that took Rand Paul I
didn't clip it was because it was just unlistenable was CNN
with with broth. And that was just a shouting match between
the two of them. And I mean, again, I didn't clip it because
it was just too convoluted. But he only made it on there with
his message and obviously didn't make it anywhere else. And by
the way, the term meddling. I mean, when it comes to
condemning someone for doing something meddling is not very
strong. The definition which is in the show notes is your view
are interfering in other people's business. You know,
that's not quite the same as hacking our election, which also
there's this you know, they keep saying they got 500,000 voter
names and partial IRA.
No, the voting record No, which are public,
but yeah, you can get them from the website. I also don't think
they were successful in that all the reports I've seen as they
tried one try the rest was probing ports.
And also nothing too much fun on social media. Yeah, way too much
fun. Now, the thing that we do have a report from PBS, this is
another one this is another one that is transition where they go
from one topic to another, but they bring this woman in on PBS
to discuss you know, the Russians learned a lot
apparently from this meddling, and now they're going to up
their game so I'm wondering what what does that even mean? So
let's play this clip. This is clearly the Russians know clip
are clearly the Russians know that the US is on guard at this
point. They were successful to a degree in 2016. This year, they
must be trying different things. What do you see That is
different or better or more sophisticated from them now?
Yeah, that's absolutely right. One of the things that Dan
Coates has said is that we think they will be learning lessons,
but that they have learned lessons. And we think that
they're adopting those as they're looking at new ways to
divide Americans. So some of the things that we've seen is them
weighing in on things like the NFL protests, whether it was,
you know, good or bad, appropriate or not for NFL
players to be taking a knee during the national anthem. We
saw accounts on Twitter that have now been identified as ones
that were created by the Internet Research Agency. But
were pretending to be Americans accounts that had 10s of 1000s
of followers weighing in on both sides of that issue. We've seen
social media accounts that we now know were operated by the
internet research agency in St. Petersburg, weighing in on
issues like the me to movement, we've seen them weighing in on
things like Roseanne Barr's racist comments. So we see these
kinds of activity, basically trying to stoke tension within
America. And you
is Roseanne a Russian agent now?
No, but But bringing in coming in arguing about whether she
should have been fired or not is stoking tensions. These people
ever look at a Rob Reiner tweet.
He's a nice guy.
So we see these kinds of activity, basically trying to
stoke tensions within America.
And you mentioned a minute ago, Juliet Cayambe, that you're
still waiting for the federal government to do more to pull
this together. The White House is saying they are working on
this. The Department of Homeland Security says they're working on
this. So what more needs to be done from Washington and in the
state?
I think that's right. So I think we need
to wait a minute. Wait a minute, did you edit that file? I'm
sorry, that was a mistake I made
needs to be done from Washington and in the state?
I think so I think we need to view this as a threat to any
other critical infrastructure, we do not have transportation
security to the states and locals redistribute money. We
have actually oversight from the federal perspective. And you and
you have a focus from the federal government. Now that may
be true from the agency side Department of Homeland Security
is clearly working with state and locals in this regard. But
until we begin from the White House and president's
statements, to understand that this battle, to protect our
systems has begun already is as Dan Coates has said, You're not
going to need to on the state and local level. All right, now,
let's stop and consider this. We're talking about the $100,000
in lame advertising on Facebook and and going on to Twitter as a
fake personality, which of course, is what the tech experts
would do. And if you remember during that, like one of the
conflicts in Iraq or elsewhere, where they were this so called
lesbian who was some guy in London and an apartment, and he
was posing as a beat up lesbian in some area of one of these
conflict zones on Twitter, and it became a scandal and I mean,
this isn't this is to say and for listening to Blumenthal say
this, like 911 This is like Pearl Harbor, and it's involving
tweets. And guys, those are digital missiles. My
friend
they poses Americans on Twitter is like is is it's insane. Who
cares? How
thank you and I and I think that's the bottom line for this
part of the analysis is it's really who gives a crap. We know
this happens. We know there's hacking we know there's
meddling, it's, it's what goes I mean, we hacked Angular Merkel's
phone come on the in 2012. The CIA was was eavesdropping on the
French elections. This is not new. And we're not we're just as
culpable fine. It's not it's just in We invented
it.
They were number one baby. We
started they were the guys who got a whole scene,
given credit away. Credit where credit is due? Yeah. Now there
were two very important things which are not discussed, and
that do make a difference will directly impact our lives
collectively. And that is this little ditty.
If I may, I throw in some two cents. We talked to Mr.
President, in
case it wasn't clear. This is Putin's translator
cluding. This subject as well. We are aware of the stance of
President Trump. And I think that we as a major oil and gas
power and the United States is a major oil and gas power as well.
We can work together on regulation of international
markets, because neither of us is actually interested in the
plummeting of the of the prices and the consumers will suffer as
well. and the consumers in the United States will suffer as
well and the shale gas production will suffer. Because
beyond a certain price bracket, it's no longer profitable to
produce gas. But nor we are interested in driving prices up
because it will drain juices like justice from all other
sectors of the economy from shouldn't be late, etc. So we do
have space for cooperation here.
I thought this was very important, because the price of
oil determines everything in the economy and it and literally in
your own pocket, you know, what am I paying for to fill up my
car. And I got an interesting note that goes along with this
from one of our producers who wants to remain anonymous. He's
a dude named Ben slash coder at a data analytics company for the
oil and gas industry. And here's his note, I don't know much
about the industry itself. But I can tell by how many people are
willing slash wanting to talk to our sales guys. Because oil
keeps flirting with $80 a barrel, everybody has loosened
up their purse strings. This has been a blessing and a curse as
people are finally in the mindset to go looking for new
software to aid the growth and new venture teams. But it's also
a time when people get starry eyed with big ideas of what they
could do with the perfect solution. I was going through
the Trump Putin summit when Putin came back with his
response about oil and gas says as much as Trump may be
complaining on Twitter to OPEC that oil is too expensive and
trying to get Germany to buy American liquid natural gas
instead of Russian. The current prices are great for the
industry. It's in the sweet spot, which is what Putin was
saying not too hot, not too low, not too high. After fracking was
commonplace American drilling companies figured out how to
make money at $40 a barrel. It was painful but and there were
massive layoffs software budgets of 10s of millions were slashed
and the industry found out exactly what was the minimum
software purchase needed to for a new startup or mid sized
upstream company. At $50 A barrel companies were white
knuckled shuffling around the deck chairs to play at trying to
be efficient, but at 70. Plus, the rains are just loose enough
that VPS are spending a little bit of time dreaming on how to
put together their ideal build out in terms of staffing in
terms of land software, in terms of how new methods they want to
use to investigate. If we go much higher, we're going to hit
the problem with no nose to grindstone and people letting
perfect be the enemy of good. So back to Trump and Putin. Neither
of them want the price to go lower. But they both be
interested to see the price rise a little higher. Trump is
holding out for $100 a barrel to get Aramco to go public. And I
think they're both trying to make this happen. The point
being, you're gonna see oil go to $100 a barrel.
The point being, what's the point of him wanting to see
Aramco go public? Why? Because it's great
for NASDAQ. It'd be great we add all that to ours. I think we get
to add that to our numbers the way it works. Okay. Having
sodomized this on DH and plug this irregular Cody, you
could tell me about I don't know. i All I know is it's a big
deal.
Why it's the biggest deal? Yeah. It will be the absolute Bettina,
which reminds me I was Yeah. It's the biggest deal ever, it
will be the number one IPO ever put out, it's going to be worth
so much money. It's ridiculous, but they can't do it unless they
can sweeten the deal and make it look like they're gonna, you
know, everyone's gonna make make out. And so they have to get
that price of oil up. It's actually high enough now. So
that I think the deal is easily going to clear. But that's not
what I'm asking. The point that or what I'm asking is, what's
Trump's interest in this? Is he doing? Is it because he's
buddies with the Saudis? Or is because I mean, in what and, and
he can't really control the price of oil one way or the
other. I mean, he might be wishful thinking and it'd be
nice to have it go way up there. But it's there's some something
missing from this analysis of this guy of yours.
Oh, I don't understand why Trump wouldn't want to take that and
put that that feather in his cap and say I brought it
which was at a feather in anybody's cap. And who's an
American, this doesn't benefit
us. By having them list on on on our stock exchange has no
benefit.
Which I do, well, then good day, they should just be enraged
straight into the New York Stock Exchange, but no, what's No,
there's no benefit there on the stock exchange. Okay, then we
get in.
Okay. All right. So then why is Trump making such a big deal
about that IPO?
Which is Yeah, where? Oh,
when when he was over in Saudi Arabia. That's all that it was
about. We've discussed it prior. I
don't remember discussing it. For one thing about the IPO. And
too I'd like to know why he is making such a big deal about it.
I can see why it's look, I can see why it's a big deal for
Putin to have it at 100.
Well, yeah, well, Putin got Yeah, Putin needs high oil
prices, he does find it at by the way, over 660 and fat, and
maybe
maybe Putin wants to hold that back. Maybe he doesn't maybe he
wants to keep it under 100. And maybe that's part of the
discussion. I think it was just more important than a little
throw away of that no one looked at.
So I think it's important that they do some sort of, you know,
if they want to conspire together to keep your oil
prices, it's something fixed, and so it's not fluctuating so
much. So I think that's great. How
about this?
I don't see why
I'm sure cares, but I'm shooting from the hip. I'm shooting from
the hip. Maybe he doesn't want it to come to the stock
exchange. Maybe he wants to bankrupt them looking just run
out of money. I don't know. But I'm pretty sure the $100 is in
play.
It's been in play before it does a can't hold that the world's
market because of the United States and I would blame this on
I don't know, Soros who may want to keep the prices down and
whoever's promoting electric vehicles and high gasoline gas
mileage and all these other things results in you can't suck
that much oil out of the system anymore at $100 People just did
just they balk at it has never been held
right now, but maybe it'll it'll tap it.
I don't know. Demand is down. Hey, I don't the alternative
energy plays are we're working against it. Okay.
I can't I have I do not have enough standing to argue this.
Now, I did have a chat with the pathetic the other day. Ah,
okay. Yeah, I called him said all right. And after listening
to his life story, said, What? What did you think he's a
talker, man. I love the guy is a talker talk talk for hours with
this guy. Yeah, it's usually about all kinds of other stuff.
But he said Yes, I'm very worried very worried about
something that was a throwaway line. When the two of them were
sitting down before they went in for their one on one meeting
with the soon to be subpoenaed translators. And this was the
line.
Most importantly, we have a lot of good things to talk about and
things to talk about.
We have discussions on everything from trade, to
military to missiles to nuclear to channeled China. We'll be
talking a little bit about China, our mutual friend
President Xi.
All right, so here he was Botanics analysis of that
statement, he says he feels that the two of them probably spoke a
lot about Z, specifically, not just China, but about z. And it
is pathetic belief. And let's not argue because I can't
counter argument that China's economy is actually very hollow.
And there's a huge problem in this shell of what they're
presenting. I know that they continue to devalue against the
dollar. The Horowitz even tweeted about that. But this
goes back to ZTE. And will actually to two parts. One is
that G ID politically may be according to Puranic politically
may be in trouble in China. You know, first of all, he's kind of
taking on the, you know, the he's a victim of the Mao
aggression. He's kind of taking that on. He said, I'm going to
be president for life. And China's a big country and if
people you know if things don't go well with the middle class,
which it seems they may be suffering, or the new middle
class may not get what they expect. You know, someone new
could rise up and Botanics prediction was GE will be out
within the year. But the but he feels that could be a domino
effect. That could be a the economy could come crashing
down. And he believes that that could be with something as small
as ZTE, I'll just refresh your memory.
US President Donald Trump said Tuesday he's not happy with the
China trade talks last week, and there's no deal yet on what to
do with trolled tech firms. ZTE, the Commerce Department slapped
the company with a sales ban in April after ZTE, pled guilty to
shipping American made technology to Iran. However,
Beijing has been pushing the US to roll back its punishment as
part of negotiations to avert a trade war between the two
countries on Tuesday, Trump floated fines on ZTE instead,
and a shake up at the top.
So what I envision is a very large fine of more than a
billion dollars could be 1,000,000,003. I envision a new
management a new board.
A Bloomberg report on Wednesday said ZTE estimates $3 billion
worth of losses from sanctions. The company buys an estimated 25
to 30% of its components from US firms and the ban in April
effectively crippled its operations. But Trump said the
current penalty has also hurt the US firms that do business
with ZTE.
They can pay a big price without necessarily damaging all of
these American companies.
Trump's proposal triggered immediate resistance in
Congress, lawmakers across party lines accused the President of
letting ZTE off the hook and bending to pressure from
Beijing. The reaction could complicate Trump's efforts to
win concessions to narrow a trade gap with China of more
than $300 billion.
So if you believe people like Adam Schiff, the reason Trump
wanted this exception for ZTE, the second largest technology
company was been ordered to build Trump Tower in Beijing or
is for Ivanka has patents on or trademarks on their brands would
be approved as all emoluments Emoluments Clause Emoluments
Clause, I think, and this is coming from Panasonic, and I
think it's arguable that GE said, Look, I can't have 77,000
jobs just disappear overnight, it's going to trigger something
and it just may be bad. Trump and GE had been buddies, you
know, GE is came all the way to mar a Lago. I think the guy's
been groveling. And I have a feeling that the assertion that
Trump and Putin together are trying to figure out what they
can do, to not have China collapse, because that would be
bad for everybody and forget, in the US will be okay. But it
turns out, they just they can't really sustain their growth
without stealing our technology, they need our technology. And
that's now being cut off through sanctions, people can't do
business with them anymore. And they're in trouble, like, holy
crap, we can't build the next thing. And oh, by the way, if
you cut us off at the knees right here with ZTE, things may
go horribly wrong. And I think that it's worth considering this
theory. And yeah,
I think it is worth considering is a funny idea. Well, we do
know, and after, again, Horace and I do discuss this. I don't
so much as he does these phony baloney numbers that the Chinese
are coming up with, to justify whatever it is, they're up to
it, including building ghost cities, you know, to balance the
books and right, these other things, which is it's really
kind of wild, what's going on in China. But it's, it's not. I
mean, unless the whole economic structure of China is. And there
is some possibility of this is alien to everything we've known
for hundreds and hundreds of years about how economies work.
Unless that's something from from, you know, the aliens have
established over there in China. They can't sustain this bull
crap, the way they're doing it. Right. It just doesn't make any
sense. By the way, Westerners look at the economies anyway. I
don't know. Maybe just to think had collapsed at the drop of a
hat. I mean, anything. We've seen stuff like that happened in
markets where you know, the housing market in 2007. It
doesn't. Nobody was expecting it to collapse away. It didn't take
the whole world's economy with it. No.
And add to that, I didn't know that Foxconn was a Taiwanese
company. I always thought it was Chinese.
Yeah, absolutely. It's owned by a Malaysian Chinese guys.
So they've just opened up a huge plant and where is it like Ohio
or something? We are in Dakota Dakota. Yeah. So like that $10
billion plant that could be a hedge to make sure we get our
iPhones.
That's a nice one. I mean, okay, that's a good observation. That
could be a hedge. It may have Trump so on takes credit for it.
But it's possible that this was in the works could base makes
more sense. You can't do these things overnight. It was in the
works as a hedge because most of the Taiwanese are the big
Taiwanese tech companies rely on China. They've all moved to
China Acer everybody that was always building in Taiwan, they
don't do that anymore. Taiwan has become kind of a banking
center and, or a place where you have your head office. And every
bed but all their facilities are now in China. Right. And they
rely on China and I can see them getting a little freaky because
the Chinese system is
Wisconsin is where the Foxconn Oh, Wisconsin,
it's one of the northern states. You're right. I think it is.
Yeah. It's possible. That's actually a good possibility. But
if I was, by the way, I'm gonna bring this up, not use the same
analysis you just did. Just a little off topic. We'll get
right back to the topic. I think Amazon is going to leave
Seattle.
Why wouldn't they? I meant to say why would I'm sorry, I
messed up. But double negative. Well, they're certainly looking
for headquarters. They say looking for
the so called Second headquarters. I think that's
about That's a Reuss if you don't have a second headquarters
good, there's only a headquarters. Yeah, good point.
The second headquarters is a ruse. They're looking to leave
Seattle. And the only reason I may write about this, I might
not but just for people who are interested in the thought, is
that they have a socialist damn near a communist City Council,
as led by this one Indian woman from India, or she's an Indian
descent to the American but she's a she's a Bernie Sanders
socialist. They want to put a head tax on Amazon, they want to
do all these things, and raped them if they can. And the and
then I was, as I'm reading this, can you imagine what the what
the just to the Seattle metro area? What contribution in
financial terms Amazon makes that area what it be what it
brings to the area? I have no idea I'm sure it's huge $38
billion a year
well, that rivals the grunge movement. This is from the Was
this the South China Post I think under it's made in China
25 program, Beijing envisages becoming a global leader in
artificial intelligence, robotics and telecommunications
including a plan to build out the world's largest 5g network.
But the block on ZTE is a wake up call as it exposes the
Achilles heel of the country's high tech industry. Its
lingering reliance on key foreign technologies stealing.
This is why the US action has triggered such a widespread
patriotic reaction in China underscoring the growth tension
between the world's two biggest economies. And then we have this
is Bloomberg. This is Bloomberg. Let me say Forbes. For what it's
worth. Analysis, ZTE is collapse reveals China's huge dependence
on us technologies. I think that this is troubling. And it's
really gotten to a very bad point. All this stuff has to be
years ahead of time. But without the technologies and without the
secrets without stealing the secrets, which is the main
thing. And this again, from comes from, Steve botanic, is
that the code that ZTE stole or took or I guess they stole it,
and then they packaged it and sold it off was apparently from
the geospatial guys. And they looked at what was stolen. This
is this would be recently and they said man, let them have it
is fine. And that's when Trump said okay, let's let's not put
these guys out of business. They can keep that but you know this
may be his his left weight is his leverage if true. Yeah, but
not no single good. Not a single question from the media about
that. No, of
course not about that.
You're What did you discuss about President? First of all,
why
would you ask a question like that? Might put him in a good
light and not get you to vote Democrat? Yes. Anyway, put it in
the newsletter I've been meaning to put it in there. I said, the
only thing going on with your mainstream media right now. Is
propaganda to get you to vote Democrat. That's across the
board. Yes. And I noticed this, by the way, this one of the
things just happened recently is apparently the New Yorker
magazine. This is doom for them, by the way. Oh, yeah. It's just
gonna unionize.
Yeah, that's always good for for business. If
you're going to unionize what unions are affected, I'm a
member. I'm a member of unions. I'm not against them. But I know
what happens with situations like
that. It doesn't make a lot of sense. This thing's been in
business for 100 years, and it doesn't need a union. And the
unions, by the way, are all democratic. And that's why
there's been that couple of right to work laws passed in
certain states because people are sick of their union spending
all their money on the Democrat Party. Right. And that's why the
it's a reasonable thing to sue over. But because there are some
people in unions that are not Democrats, but generally
speaking, this is a democratic thing. And this is all we're
seeing. And it's getting on my nerves, especially this there's
all this anti Trump stuff that went on after this. I thought it
was an innocuous meeting in Helsinki. Yeah, it was it was
not a big deal.
And I don't think it would have mattered what had happened it
would have come back as you know, he sided with Putin no
matter what he said, I'm sure we would have had that people are
and fucking over language now. So they'll they'll find
something no problem. And I do want to mention if you want more
insight into what we were talking about, when John says
over there with Horowitz that's d h unplugged, a Vortech
Horowitz unplugged a Dh unplugged.com And then finally
from Planet money, China always knew that Trump would win. There
is a joke they tell in China about President Donald Trump's
upset victory in 2016. And we learned about it from our intern
echo Huang she is from China. I echo Hi. And the joke is about a
province in China where they make flags. So echo tell us what
is what is this joke? Yes, it's a province called
Georgetown and people there, they thought that they were the
first in the world to know that Trump was going away, because he
got way more flak orders from Trump campaign then from
Clinton's campaign.
Oh, so they were making flags for political rallies and they
got so many more orders for Trump flags than Hillary flags.
They knew he was gonna win Yep.
Makes nothing but sense.
That's all it takes just a little insight, flags and likes
here.
I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning
to you John C where the C stands for China's collapse tomorrow
morning you mushroom curry all this in the morning y'all should
see boots on the ground, feet in the air subs in the water and
all the dames knights out
in the morning to our troll room and all associated trolls there
no agenda stream.com Got about 900 Trolls all lined up. Good.
Thank you very much for being here with us. We appreciate the
input and also a hearty and hefty in the morning to Ryan M
Scott. I believe this was his first submission to the Art
Generator as we are always looking
for when you hit hit the ball is like one of those guys is a
rookie comes up to the major leagues in his first at bat he
hits Omer Yeah, happens. Yeah. Where's your bat sound? You got
that? I don't have a bet. Oh, I do. Have you got about 10 Yeah.
Brian. Perfect.
He brought us the album artwork for episode 1051 The liberal
world order. And it was a throwback for those old enough
to remember the Sex Pistols. Nevermind the bollocks. album
cover. It was Trump in the UK Anarchy in the UK. That was the
take off it had the colors that had a great great Trump face,
finger in the air and grimacing, it was just a beautiful piece
and you're right knocked it out of the park. And we appreciate
that was spot on, spot on. So thank you, Ryan, M. Scott, and
all other artists who diligently help us out with an important
part of the promotion of the show. It really makes a
difference no agenda are generated are calm. Thank you
for that. And we're going to thank our executive and
Associate Executive Producers next in our value for value
network. The way this has always worked is we've we started out
years ago, almost 10 years ago with a simple question. You went
to the movie, the movies this weekend, with a date, you had a
drink, maybe some popcorn, 50 bucks. And you sat in a room for
an hour and a half with your date and with a whole bunch of
other people in the dark. Here, three hours, you're sitting with
1000s of people, we're not quite sure how many could be 10s of
1000s could be hundreds of 1000s who are sitting here with you in
the light. And it's three hours minimum. What's it worth to you?
And that's what is reflected in our donations and we appreciate
it.
So yeah, a few people thank you give me brought up the numbers
because have we had such a poor showing last couple of shows and
rally the troops and we got some results. I want to thank all
these folks are helping, starting with Don Tomaso de
Toronto, which who came in with one with $1,234.05 56 cents or
123456, which we consider to be one of the finest donation.
Very fine.
He writes greetings, Ludwig, Ludwig and Leopold and who is
going to my attention that there's a meet up in the nether
regions of Toronto today. On a show day nonetheless, what
possibly can go wrong. So I will hopefully be imbibing with my
fellow no agenda producers while today's episode downloads to my
tracking device. I try and desperate that's a good one. I
try and donate at least once a year but I'm a little late for
2018 So I believe a deed douching might be an order
Well, I'm happy to provide that.
Deed deuced
the lack of donations is not for lack of quality content, step it
up view freeloaders and J and K. Thank you very much to Moscow,
sir. Dr. Ron Tommaso de Toronto. Gracias. Thank you.
Coincidentally had sir anonymous Dogpatch Ah, he's back. Yes. 800
You
would 800 Wow.
800 Yeah. He always has a handwritten note. Everything's
pretty anonymous. stuff they've been trying to do fingerprint
analysis on
how you use lemon juice and a candle
at improperly classified my last letter, a trusted traveler
number reduces the chance of a quad s designation, but does not
move you to the TSA PreCheck. Aha. There we have no borders.
This is why there was a little kudos to you for your analysis.
To no borders people, especially in San Francisco and Austin,
please leave your apartment unlocked or give your apartment
keys to a homeless family. homelessness has separated far
more children than ice and surrendering your personal
border could be the solution to this crisis. Yes, I agree.
Having worked with the homeless for many years, it won't take
long for your apartment to be well known and very well used by
these deserving yet separated families. They're all good
people. And such action is exactly what you suggest. We do
as Americans. Please wish my baby brother angelic angelic
night i Happy birthday. I don't think we had this on the list.
No, I'm gonna put it as Oh, wait. I mean, his brother is
his baby brother's angelic Knight. So as he's one that
passed away? I'm not sure. Oh, yes, I think so. That's a clue
as to who he is. And jet angelic. Maybe he offered some
bargains. There may also be symbolic, he offered some bug
advice. If you have bug when his bug big. If you have repeated
weapons violations in your youth. Don't write angry letters
to the White House.
This is a good tip.
Yes, I'm writing it down. The Secret Service has no sense of
humor and a long memory. Writing such letters to many
administrations. Ford was his first he told me last last month
the Secret Service no longer confirms his noise disguise the
life yeah no longer confirms his location proving he is not a
threat. Or maybe they stop because he is staying somewhere
that prohibits sharps in quotes.
A lot of code as I'm still at bog
on a Mrs. Hill. Don't know what by bog means something I've
heard it prohibits sharps quote unquote, his advice this is
probably going out is going to be something going on. His
advice seems like common sense. But your show demonstrates how
uncommon such sense is in our world. This is true. We do
reflect a common sense it seems to be missing lacking in the
mainstream media, that's for sure. Regardless, please wish
him a happy birthday.
Back on grid.
over some back on grid advice to repeated weapons. Maybe. Maybe
that's a troll room suggestion.
I like it
was possible. N J and K as usual. Yes.
Thank you very much randomness of Dogpatch it's not only always
nice to see a movie about it. Yes. Those are great, great
amount being gifted but also we'd love your your input and
your analysis.
Yes, he did. He travels a lot. This is one of the only thing
I've been able to determine about the guy. He travels a lot
is probably a Muslim, his wife is and I believe he is and he
stays anonymous because I think he's a Saudi spy. Just
that's fine by me. I don't care. You know, bring the analysis on.
I'll take it from any side.
Although he's probably American, so he might who knows. And
that's the last we've heard of regulation by being so
secretive.
Please let's just stop that's the last we'll hear of him
otherwise, like,
I've had it with you Devora Jimmy James of the Flatlanders

Perfect. Yes, I have that jingle request for you.
By iron Rand.
You've got karma. I
remember, remember the days when I would talk about iron Rand
before it became? Yes, we can't before it became fashionable.
Well, I don't know if it ever became fashionable.
Yeah, don't you remember that? There was a whole period in
2008. And all CEOs were handing out the book to anybody at all.
Here's an interesting observation then. Now this was
going on in Silicon Valley. I remember John Doerr and people
like that this is discussing and rands book. Yep. Now, how did
the valley go from that to becoming solid Democrat Hillary
supporters?
I asked you that's a great question. That is a great
question. It is. I don't know for the life of me. I'm sure it
has something to do with money.
It has something to do with somehow some reverse propaganda
in that book. Some Neuro Linguistic Programming, yes, it
goes into your brain when you read the book and it
makes you a commie.
Makes a Hillary supporter. Different.
Yeah, well, I didn't become a Hillary supporter. So there's
that yet. Onward.

was a rough year for me and the ubiquitous disinformation coming
from the election campaigns just made things worse. No agenda
delivers a balanced perspective, a wealth of information and a
good time and it does show so to this day. I've been due to
donate for a while but the main impetus for this donation is the
insane attacks no agenda and his producers have recently been
subjected to on Twitter.
Yeah, yeah, I've seen that as well what's very interesting is
you know someone's Russians now there's someone just talking
crap and yeah and what what happened is our producers jumped
in and you go like, what's your problem? Now we don't we don't
care about you because I think it is seen as social justice
warriors somehow trying to go after our advertisers which we
don't have. So every reply to this to this douchebags tweet is
oh, I'm gonna up my donation
This is the guy with delay hit two followers. It's just some
troll that comes in and out. Oh, yeah. Hi, Nick to read responded
to him. I chewed out Nick. I said Hey, check this guy's
followers before you because what you're doing is you're
giving him a voice because the way Twitter works and so you
would want to do that and I just I reported him and blocked him.
Oh, you reported him for what?
Harassing harassment
isn't doesn't twitter then say you can try blocking?
No, I just I always report and then I people should do that for
targeting harass, targeted harassment and then I blocked
him after that block I've been doing donates for a while the
impetus the producer recipient subject on Twitter he I just
said that this donation is primarily to spite whoever that
troll is. Oh, yeah, you got paid off. says I'm getting knighted.
I want the most ridiculous jingle combo possible. Can I get

real coup proof prefecture formerly of Indiana. It's
interesting. Sir Logan Scheid, then let's get that straight
actually goes back. I just wanted to say something going
back to Dimitri as well about that's how I think I think we
gauge donation segments success more by how many people donate
not by the amounts. I mean, it's what's this it's great if you
have 10 people donating and and those are all big numbers, of
course, you know, because then we can eat that's fantastic. But
the idea is to have everybody here it comes chipping in. If
everybody just chipped in a little bit, then it wouldn't be
much eat now. We We can't thank everybody at $3 But that's all
it takes. Really we just want more people to donate. It's not
so much about I'm not going to complain but more people
donating is important.
That's one word that you car when she Chambliss in Atlanta

them for Are the Associate Executive Producers ship

anywhere else it did show up finally,

Keep up the good work and J and K Carwin Chambliss. Hey, where

Nicola, that
was gonna do a little comment for that one as well. It's so
kind of hard to do that you've got karma is nice when spouses
donate in each other's name, so there's something real loving
about that. It's very cute. Bless you. And that wraps up our
first donation segment for our executive producers and
Associate Executive producers of episode 1052. Thank you very,
very, very much. Really appreciate it. We eat another
day and we continue to do deconstruction so much that has
to be done these days. It's it's all consuming, I would say it.
Yeah, just look at the show notes. And that's a part of the
package deal and a show notes.com. Take a look at all
the articles, look at the search engine, Ford look at all the
things you can do. Research Papers, school papers, it's a
tremendous resource. That's also what is a part of the no agenda
package. And know that our executive producers and
Associate Executive Producers are helping you as well. Thank
you for that. And those are real credits. You can use them
anywhere credits are accepted. We'll be thanking more people in
our second donation segment. And we have another show coming up
on Sunday. Remember us at avora.org/n
A so go
ahead. Take your knowledge and propagate the formula.
Our formula is this. We go out for hit people in the mouth shut
it off. Yay. A
couple of things. I've got just to clean up the last segment. On
some obscure broadcast radio, I believe. Louie Gohmert was
spilling his guts about the Lisa page closed session.
Apparently she she dropped a dime. She said for
one thing that whatever that was written it wasn't up for
interpretation. It was meant to in other words, whatever.
So yeah, that it wasn't really literal. It wasn't just love
birds.
Well, no, but it was it was the talk about this stuff about you
know, stop. The President was literally it was not Oh, that
means the public.
We Yeah, the royal we Yeah, exactly. Okay, interesting what
she does,
but she also had some very unusual things to say that
Gohmert was more than happy to give us and I thought it was
interesting.
Let me just get this for you.
But let me say this and it goes with what the President's
getting mocked for in Russia. I brought this out and the
mainstream media will not touch it to me Fox as the mainstream
media, but that is we know, there is no question. The
intelligence community inspector general sent Chuck which is
choked with college sent his investigator Frank Rucker, who
told Dave Chappelle and Peter struck that despite what some of
the media was saying, a major foreign power had gotten every
one of over 30,000 Hillary Clinton emails through her own
server, everything that came in when except for four. And Peter
struck did nothing about it. And apparently he didn't tell Lisa
what he had learned from the intel community IG but they sat
on that and the President knows that this foreign entity, not
Russia had everything he's talking about playing in the
election. Right? It wasn't just Russia. There were other major
players and struck did nothing Lisa apparently didn't know.
But, you know, say
another country evolve. Congressman, I want to get to
Lisa page. Yeah, she's a Democrat. She doesn't like
Trump. But she was different. Well, in what way? Would she
different and more forthcoming, what can you tell us you
learned? Well,
as she's more contrite person, and but make no mistake, just
like you said, Brian, she's a Democrat. She wanted Hillary to
win. And she did not want Trump to win. And that's that's been
obvious. There were times the FBI lawyers would be reaching
for the button to mute her comment. And she would answer
before that they could mute her comments. She She
contradicting Peter strock. And anyway,
not so much. But she has given us more insights to who was
involved in what. And, of course, when I hear Brennan and
clapper either say the kinds of things they've been saying
recently, then it tells me Wow, we must be getting close to
them. Most guilty. dogs are barking pretty loud. Yeah. Yes,
guilty.
dogs are barking. Is she going to do a public hearing?
I don't think so. Now, does that work? Do you have to do a public
hearing just to show hearing well, that we want to show? Well
that nobody wants to show if she's going to be sit saying
weird stuff. Like she's saying, right, right. Maybe she's not
insane. And she can't stick to the script like, shrug. Now as
though he's implying that China has the 33,000 missing emails,
that's the thing that they just guy because his network, it
pushes over. I've
heard this. I've heard this. But also, just as an aside, makes
sense. There's no reporting on the GOP hack that the Russians
did. If you want to just call someone out for doing it. You
know, there were there were there were emails and documents
stolen, and there was a Donald Trump file that WikiLeaks
published, it didn't get any any traction. But you know, there's
there's there was a lot of exfiltration of data from the
GOP servers. It's no, that's not mentioned anywhere. You think it
would only strengthen the case?
You think now I have this last series of clips are short from
PBS. And this is again on the same thing this this is
this, let me just say there was both and others was in the IG
report and there was also other servers mentioned think might
even said Republican but no detail.
No, of course not. Okay, sorry. Continue. This is Judy Woodruff.
And that new black woman who's supposed to be the I hate to say
she's token but I think ever since I will die they bear to
find somebody. She's not very good. She's cannon. Ch she's not
dead presented bonds. He's talent. Yeah, we heard her first
tryout, which was very lame. Yeah, she's still not not be
handling the job. But she, you know, she's a she's a black
woman who hates Trump. So you're hired, you can see it. So I'm
going to play these short
lesbian by any chance, because that would really help your
chances of getting the gig.
You can really tell at least I can't maybe you can. This is
Judy and her friend, part one
here. She also said that the United States and the Trump
administration takes election interference very seriously in
that they were looking into this. That that said the
President didn't back up and he didn't backtrack from when he
said when he said both parties have issues with the way that
Russia fast, slow down. Action. He's not taking that back.
And finally, just quickly, how are Republicans handling this? I
know some of them are giving the President still the benefit of
the doubt.
Yeah, it ends there.
Well, I stopped it there because they're giving him the benefit
of the doubt. What doubt what benefited What is What did they
say? What are they talking about? They're giving the
President the benefit of the doubt what doubt? I don't know
what doubt. I don't know. And you that's why I stopped it
there.
I don't know.
Unless she says to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Well, you gotta call Judy. Alright, let's
go on to Okay, now we go to before you play part two, I want
you to pay Play Part Three, which is going to urges the
kicker to part two, but I just want you to have it in your
mind.
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee raising
money. You Michelle center the story continues. Thank you.
Thanks,
raising,
raising money, they're raising money they're using their
deleveraging Trump to raise money. Let's see the way Miss
Shai thinks her name Michelle, Michelle or something like that.
This listen to part two of this and Tell me what is wrong with
this whole whatever she has to say.
Others have come out in a way they've never come out before
and questioned and even criticized
and well, there are some Republicans like Senator Rand
Paul and Congressman Collins who are coming out saying that the
President, but they agree with the President that they have
issue with the, with the Muller probe, that they question
whether or not Russia interfered in the way that the intelligence
community says they did. And then you have people like Newt
Gingrich, who said that he was happy that the President came
out and clarified himself. And then you have Senator Lindsey
Graham, and you have Senator Richard Burr of North Carolina,
both saying that the President needs to be way more forceful on
this are both Republicans and Republicans have not pushed back
on this President very much. But these two people and other
Republicans are saying the President needs to get this
right. And he needs to get this and he needs to be more clear
about this. The other thing that's happening, Democrats are
using this to fundraise. Just the D Triple C just today said
that they raised they raised just in June $15.2 million.
James Comey is also coming out urging people to vote for
Democrats, of course, that's a former FBI director who
President Trump fired so Democrats are seeing this as a
way to win in the midterms.
Yeah, they probably have meetings of Rob Reiner's house.
Now what was wrong with the widget? What was the real
mistake in there that she made? You can't remember it? I don't
remember. She says the Democrats are using this incident to raise
money. In other words, all this Trump bashing? Yeah,
just just the media incident.
This current situation is what she's implying. And then she
cites evidence of this assertion by saying that they've raised
$15.2 million in June. It wasn't June before this incident by
like a month. Yeah. Ah. So there you have the Democrats are using
this just last year, they made 10. I mean, it's like you're
right. Are you trying to Buffalo me with this kind of thing is
that I did that your proof of concept at last month, which has
nothing to do with the Russian incident. They raised a bunch of
money. I thought it was very poorly done very poor reporting.
And in fact that the editors at the NewsHour can't catch stuff
like that. It's beyond me. Well, who
knows? It's the summer maybe it's the interns running the
show. But I'm gonna give everyone on the Democratic side,
a gift. I'm going to help you all out. Donald Trump is broke.
And I can prove it with a clip. He's broke. He has no money.
It's on the list. And it's yes. And I and I'm surprised this is
a an unaired interview. From 1980. So now we're talking.
Shoot, man, is that now 38 years ago? Yeah, it is. 38 years of
math. Rona Barrett, remember her?
Yes, Rona bears who unfortunately had muscular
dystrophy? Yeah, then and she was your career, she is pretty
good.
He was very good. And she she clearly liked Donald Trump, back
in the day, I'm sure she would have hated him today, you know,
just just how it goes. And this is a little snippet from the end
of the interview that proves that Donald Trump is broke. For
some
people, the ultimate goal in life has been becoming the
president of the United States. Would you like to be the
President of the United States?
I really don't believe I would really, but I would like to see
somebody as the president who could do the job. And they were
very capable people in this country.
Most people who are capable and not running for office, most men
are frightened of politics today.
It is a shame, isn't it? Yes, it is a shame. The most capable
people are not necessarily running for political office.
And that is a very sad commentary on the country. They
had major corporations and they had this and that, but they are
not running for political office.
Why wouldn't someone like yourself run for political
office, you have all the money that you possibly be? You've
accomplished a great deal, even though you are only 34? I know,
there's a lot of things that you possibly can do in the years
ahead. Why wouldn't you dedicate yourself to public service
because I think it's a very mean life, I would love and I would,
I would dedicate my life to this country, but I see it as being a
mean life. And I also see that somebody with strong views, and
somebody with the kind of views that are maybe a little bit
unpopular, which may be right, but maybe unpopular, wouldn't
necessarily have a chance of getting elected against somebody
with no great brain but a big smile. And that's a sad
commentary for the political process.
Television in a strange way has ruined that process. Hasn't it
started
the process very much. I mean, the Abraham Lincoln's of the
world, Abraham Lincoln would probably not be electable today,
because of television. He was not a handsome man, and he did
not smile at all. He would not be considered to be a prime
candidate for the presidency. And that's a shame, isn't it?
metaphor, man. I'll like you. Then. When are we going to get
somebody who might be good?
I don't know. I hope it's around the corner, but I don't know. I
really don't know what I We'd like to be involved in is trying
to help choose somebody or working with a group of people
whereby they put up a candidate who wouldn't be acceptable to be
a presidential, you know, to be the president of the country if
we had the one man. And it's really not that big situation.
You know, people say, well, what could anybody do as president
that one man could turn this country around? The one proper
president could turn this country around? I firmly believe
that
if you'd lost your fortune today, what would you do
tomorrow?
Maybe I'd run for president
I would be using that at the top of the news.
I'm gonna give you the Clip of the Day for that because it was
pretty funny.
Yeah, it was a long shaggy dog story, but it was a shaggy dog.
Yeah, for sure. Rare
gray area gray area he slips through on a technicality. Oh,
man. Meanwhile, stuff heating up over in Euro land where
Margarita for staffer showed up on the podium with a very
colorful outfits just I mean, vibrant colors. She is a jiff.
Just she's looking like Bridgette Nielsen, reincarnated.
And here's what,
you know. I like clip. I just want to mention this because I
don't have it for the show. I'm gonna use it in a future show.
But I clipped the entire nine. Oh, it will be between seven and
a half a nine minute bit they did on the PBS NewsHour
interviewing her. Oh, over the Google thing. Yeah.
Shall I play the Google thing?
Yeah, I don't have anything but I do have some thoughts on it. I
promise. I didn't have time to do stuff that she says in this
interview that is just kind of amusing.
Yeah. And I want people to take note that we do a lot of that.
You know, this stuff. You put aside, you put it in a bin it
comes back, John, you're particularly good at it.
You got that one Rona Barrett thing from the 80s. I've been
I've been keeping it on VHS since the 80s. Just for today.
Yeah, that's the kind of work that goes into the show. Here's
the and I'm glad I'm glad you got that interview because I'm
very curious. She seems like a very interesting woman. She says
interesting things. Here's the report from EURO NEWS. EU has
slapped a record 4.3 4 billion euro fine on Google in an
antitrust decision for using the dominance of its Android
operating system to favor its own search engine. The US
competition so rejected criticism that the fine was too
high
for using our our standard methods. The fine is simply
bigger because the effects of the infringement is speaking.
And this is exactly a reflection of that and that it is it's a
very serious infringement. It's a very serious illegal behavior
to Commission's decision to penalize the American tech giant
comes at a time when EU US trade relations are at a low President
Trump recently accused commission investigator of being
a tax lady who really hates the USA, she hit back at claims
there was any political motivation.
I do work with stocks and I am a woman. So this is 100%. Correct.
I very much like the US clap. This has nothing to do with how
I feel nothing whatsoever. Just as well as enforcing competition
law. Well, we do it in the world. But we don't do it in the
political context.
Google has 90 days to respond or face additional charges of up to
5% of its average daily worldwide revenue. But the
company plans to appeal the decision.
The concern that today's decision will upset the careful
balance of the Android ecosystem. We believe we have a
strong case for the benefits that Android has brought to the
European marketplace, as well as globally. And this is why we
intend to appeal
the EU says Google has stifled competition amongst search
engines by forcing smartphone makers to pre install Google
Apps chrome search consumer groups say that getting Google
to stop doing this will help stimulate a greater variety of
search engine products
and expect more diversity. So every time that you have, you'll
find Android phones, we can expect to have different search
engines and browsers, for example, now they're out there
other competitors like DuckDuckGo, or quant that
currently find very, very difficult to enter the market
because of this specific practices that Google is
deploying through Android to have always the Google search as
default
the EU is unprecedented fine, and the threat that it could
even be increased is being seen as a signal that they are ready
to stand up to tech firms at a time of increased public concern
about their dominance.
Man, this is such a deja vu for me with Microsoft and Internet
Explorer is just it's the same case. Yeah,
it's the same bundle. Microsoft didn't they're not going to let
Google do it. I think Microsoft's behind In this by
the way,
it wouldn't surprise me.
But she she makes some comments that are just like so baffling
she, it makes me think she doesn't know what she's talking
about. somebody's telling her what to say, Oh, I wouldn't
really go. Defender of the American companies being gouged
by the EU. But when the when the PBS knew of all people that PBS
News Hour illiberal operation over time since since Glenn
left, says, the opening of the piece, we discussed, we tried to
get a hold of Sauron from Google in the press office wouldn't
send anyone to talk to us. And they sent a videotape it which
is the same tape that they played in that report of the
head of Google guy with the Indian accent talking about
competition. I think it's about time. They started going after
Google. I'm not going to defend him anymore. If you cannot, did
they have no press representation? They have a
thing called press@google.com. You can write to them and maybe
you get an answer back rarely. It keeps cropping up in news
reports. They're either gonna play ball or they're not and
apparently they don't do they're gonna let the media hang out to
dry and now now you guys are gonna get yourself into nothing
but more and more trouble because no one's going to come
to your defense.
And nor should they sick of those guys.
Yeah, that's the problem. They're just developing. They
got a bad attitude. Yeah. And they're not customer friendly.
Citizens are not good corporate citizens. They won't even bring
said they won't even send somebody to answer questions to
the news. Our Yeah, PBS News. Are you kidding me?
They think they they the shit don't stink.
Exactly. Yeah, that's Yeah,
speaking. Speaking of which, speaking of which. I have I have
a poop report. And then I think you have a poop report. So I'll
start with my poop report.
Oh, in San Francisco, the new mayor London breed walked the
streets today, the same streets she has vowed to clean up now at
one point she and her staff walked right by a man who
appears to be prepping a needle. You see it right there. Mayor
breed who grew up with the city as well plans to clean up San
Francisco in part by opening the nation's first supervised
injection site. That's where people can shoot up their own
drugs indoors under supervision. Instead of on the streets.
You're a native of San Francisco. Is this the worst?
You've seen it?
I will say that there is more. There's more feces, on the
sidewalks and I've ever seen, you know, growing up here, that
was something that did not wasn't the norm, but you've ever
seen than I've ever seen for sure. And that is a huge
problem. And we're not just talking about from from dogs
we're talking about from humans,
how can a city with some of the most expensive rent prices in
the world also have neighborhoods that are being
compared to actual slums, because of the amount of human
feces, trash and needles everywhere.
There are a lot of people who have been pushed out of some of
these places where you now have people paying these prices,
about 70% of the people who are estimated to be homeless now in
San Francisco were actually housed in San Francisco before
they became homeless, we have to make sure that people who live
here sadly, people who are homeless here, that they're also
held accountable for taking care of our streets. This is our home
and mean by that. Like, for example, I met with service
providers in district five and the Haight Ashbury community.
And one of the things that I said to them is, you work with
many of these individuals, I work hard to make sure that your
programs are funded for the purposes of trying to get these
individuals help. And what I am asking you to do is work with
your clients and ask them to at least have respect for the
community, at least clean up after themselves and show
respect to one another and people in the neighborhood. Are
you talking about harsher penalties? I didn't express
anything about a penalty. I just solicited their help in trying
to talk to their clients who unfortunately, were mostly
responsible for the conditions of the streets.
And I love the term clients once again. Yes, their clients.
Definitely you. You're in a lockstep agreement with Rush
Limbaugh. Oh,
I'm in agreement with him. So here,
so I don't we don't do these sorts of clips on the show
because they're just a competitive show. But I was
listening to limbaugh's show after the Helsinki thing to see
what his take on the whole thing was and what he was going to
come up with. I didn't think that much of it. But in the
process I kept I had the recorder going and I caught his
and I had to cut a lot. I didn't realize how long went I mean, he
puts huge he loves silence. He has long pauses they have the
cut out is very takes forever. He's like, he's just like Rachel
Maddow. takes him forever to get to a point.
He's no Zephyr. Sorry. He's nosy Oh, Zephyr,
Zephyr. So the so he did this read of a newspaper article
discussing the same thing but he has his little slit his his his
kind of sarcastic slant, I thought it was at least worth
listening to him discuss the same thing you just had
discussed from the Katie I think it was channeled fi that you got
that from her. Or seven, one of the three.
There was nothing in the story that makes you think that
anything about this is the slightest bit strange Mayor
London breed discusses her plan to clean up San Francisco in her
first one on one interview since taking office. So she's just
been elected London breed. I work hard to make sure your
programs are funded for the purposes of trying to get these
people help. And what I'm asking you to do is work with your
clients and ask them to at least have respect for the community.
She is going
to go off on the clients thing I
think about the clients are the homeless and the drug addicts
and and the people defecating in the streets. Oh, great, I can
get a gig and she's talking to social services groups. And
she's asking you to work with your clients, ie the home, work
with your clients. Please tell them to at least clean up after
themselves and does show respect to one another and people in the
neighborhood. This is the mayor talking to social services. You
need to have meetings with your clients and you need to tell
them to start cleaning up after themselves and to show respect
for one another. Mayor don't you get that's what they these
people have lost all self respect. I mean, this anyway
continues. When pressed about whether her plan calls for
harsher penalties against those who litter or defecate on city
streets that's written as though it happens everywhere. Oh, yeah,
people are littering everywhere. And they're crapping on the
streets everywhere. And when pressed about whether her plan
calls for harsher penalties for those who do that, the mayor
said I didn't express anything about a penalty. Instead, the
mayor said she's encouraged nonprofits and social services
groups to talk to their clients, who unfortunately, we're mostly
responsible for the conditions of our street, the clients,
homeless and our clients of nonprofits. And then she said, I
will say there is more feces on the sidewalks than I've ever
seen growing up here. And that is a huge problem. And we're not
just talking about from dogs we're talking about from humans.
Well, I'm glad that I can be equated with Rush Limbaugh. Not
so it was highly abused. That's not so sure how I feel about
that, but I don't blame you. I've been on the client that
seems like he's just discovered this term clients and I've been
on it for months
saying this is heavy. You're ahead of the curve on it. I'm
not gonna say that. I'm
just still picking the heads but all I know is this is a job for
one man detective, Dookie. Police SBU special Cooper's
unit. And where are our jingle guys, man? I mean, this is such
an obvious one. Yeah, you got your Lyric hat on.
I don't know. Put
it on. Put your Lyric hat on.
Okay, got it on.
Ah, love my poo. Oh, there you go in San Francisco. Come on,
guys. It's an easy one.
Now, we have to remember when we started covering this, we were
one of the first shows that started covering the worst
because it was the plastic bags. And it was the poop map. It was
the plastic bags are proud of it. And another contributor when
it really began was when Twitter located on Market Street right
in the center of poop Central. Got sick of all these bums
around and they said and they took all they said you got to
get rid of these porta potties that are all over the place. And
that's part of San Francisco, they have to go figuring that at
the porta potties went, then the homeless that were plaguing the
office area around Twitter would go to Yeah, and then all of a
sudden, they just started pooping on the street. Thank you
Twitter.
Yeah, and thank you to the elimination of plastic bags. I
think that was really the tipping point where we saw that
the homeless I'm sorry, the clients we'll just call them
clients from now on that the clients, the street clients,
straight clients, street clients, the street clients had
no more bags to poop in. So that didn't help and really, and I've
been I've been willing to wine to bring this up and I see you
have a clip so it's good. It see Just to me the biggest virtue
signaling social justice warrior bull crap we have ever seen has
been taking place right in front of our eyes for the past two
months. This insane banning based upon a one sea turtle with
a straw up his nose she Exactly. Banning we're banning straws and
it's, you know, it's every company now has to come out and
say, oh, yeah, we're not going to use straws either. You know,
Starbucks, oh, they're making a sippy cup, which is more plastic
than the straw ever was. But I guess it's the the horrible
shape of the straw that is shoving straws into sea turtles
noses everywhere. And it's a part of the huge plastic
flotilla on the ocean that no one can ever seem to get a real
photo of
that actually writes phony baloney island out in the middle
is probably
more fishing gear than anything. But what is this insanity? I
tried to find out if there was someone behind it? Now is it the
straw, the paper straw industry? And it seems to me that
basically,
industry could do worse than do this. This would be a great
market and I don't believe I'm a marketing genius. I don't
know who did it. But it started with the sea turtle video. And
this whole the we are losing straws. Thanks to one viral
video, whether that was intentionally launched or not,
it's a fantastic campaign. Can I play your clip here? I have no
idea what it is.
Well, I have to set it up. Okay. There's a element in this clip,
which is what got me to clip it. That is another one of these
things where somebody says something that doesn't make any
sense. Like the woman that was on PBS is saying oh there
Democrats are making hay from this. Then she said something
that before it happened, you can play it.
San Francisco could also be the next big city to ban plastic
straws. Environmentalists and city leaders held a rally at
city hall in support of the ban. On report says 1 million plastic
straws are used in San Francisco alone every day. And Rob mental
groups say that contributes to the tons of plastic that ends up
as litter on the ground and in the ocean. However, advocates
for the disabled say there should be some exceptions to the
ban.
We're really much about protecting the environment. But
there are a lot of people with disabilities that rely on drugs.
He says for people who don't have the full use of their
hands, those flexible plastic straws are the only ones that
really works. Restaurants and bars need to be educated about
that and keep a supply available for those customers who truly
need them. several businesses we spoke with say they're also in
favor of cutting back on the use of plastic straws. They also say
the increased cost will likely be passed on to customers.
It's like a defibrillator now. Oh, you gotta have some straw,
some backup straws. I got an idea. I bet you we can do this.
I want to launch our own viral campaign. It'll take some work
from one or more of our producers. And I think the next
thing to go should be the swizzle stick.
Oh, you're already behind the curve on that. Oh, this.
Oh, well. Really? Someone's already grabbed the swizzle
stick.
Yes, that's part of the San Francisco la this whistle stick
as
well. We need a video of a fish with a swizzle stick in his eye.
Come on. We can get swizzle stick
it's already done your your what you're done you This is no good.
Well, let's pick another plastic product.
Well the first thing this did couple of things that were in
that report. The one thing that was that stood out to me was
somehow going from plastic to paper. By the way what was the
what kind of straws were there before there was plastic paper?
Somehow to go from plastic to paper is going to cost more than
why? It's paper?
I don't know. Maybe it cost
bull crap. That's what makes me think that paper straw people
who got something to do with this. You could make paper
straws that are just as good as as plastic. You need to slide
that when I was a kid to all the straws I ever used her paper. I
don't just plastic straws, a new phenomenon. Yeah, but
your coke sticks to the inside of it. It's
not really useful. Well, that could be what it is.
I don't even know if that's true. It might be good. What
about all those drug addicts?
I mean, it's bullcrap that it would be more expensive. I think
you're right this thing is something of a red herring but I
think it is the paper straw people I think we should go
after rubber straws are just as good as good as plastic straws.
They're got a slight coating of wax on them to keep from getting
that that's what keeps it from from sticking.
Yeah, the wax was there the pain was gone the wax. This is a
driver's thing to get for awhile. We just have it's just a
slight melting point.
What will Hollywood do?
You'd you'd have to slice open the He did the paper straw,
slice it open and then spread it open and then scrape out the all
the coke that is stuck on the inside of it. And then you have
to re sniff it, it would be so much worse.
The troll room is pointing to a video that this was some 10 year
olds who launched the campaign. It doesn't get any better. You
get a turtle with a straw through his nose. You get a 10
year old kid guard. Not done. I mean you're done. You don't
that's all you need. Throw in some SJW work
for kale. It'll work for these straws, these straws, these
plastics if I was in the business of making these plastic
straws, I'd be beside myself knowing or I'd be retooling for
paper immediately as your
your toast. Yeah, yeah. Oh, a totally toast. Yeah, that's the
mob man the mob is still is still powerful. That because
there's no analysis of it. And every story, it's just yeah,
wow. Well, you know, turtle. Here's this, the turtle, man,
board, Turtle our cheese. And then before we take a break,
something I never realized about the 23 and me stuff and these
DNA tests. That thing was this stack who sent me an article
about this. I'm against it. I think it's a bad idea. I don't
also don't want to know what you know what some science thinks I
need. You know, I'll just go with the flow. That's just me
personally, maybe I'm anti science in that in that manner,
but anti
science
to 22. Nice. Do you know what NP E stands for?
Northwest protective of the I don't know, I have no idea. No
stands for not parent expected. And as it turns out, there are
you ever heard that one? Yes. It's something that you if you
receive it on your DNA report. And in this story, the one story
I have here is from Ancestry DNA report, it means that one of
your parents is not your parent. And there is an I don't have
face bag anymore. But there is apparently a face bag group that
has 1000s of people whose lives were just turned upside down
overnight by the stupid test. And it turns out that one of
your parents, and they often know which one is not your
parent. And I think it creates some tension. It's really, it's
really quite sad. You read these stories, man, people just just
devastated by it. So it's not without risk. Emotional risk.
Well, how did they know about the parents? How would you
notice that your parents where he resides? Send the thing and I
get my results? It says, You got this? You got that? You got
this? How's it going to know one of my parents was not my parent.
Am I pretty sure my mother was and maybe the dad is somebody
else's that was suggesting? And how would they know that?
Because they didn't have the results or my dad?
If you read the article, which I could skim it real not right
quickly now and tell you. For instance, if you're mixed, just
to give you an if you're a mixed color, but you don't have any,
you know, John, I can't answer it without reading you verbatim
from the article. I don't know where it is. But there's a
reason why there's 1000s of people in a group like this. One
of these tests are multiple these tests are able to tell you
that one of your parents is not yours.
From the test alone.
I don't have I don't have an answer for that. But I think you
should just take it from me that these groups exist and people
are discovering
these groups exist. It's just that I just request you.
I don't have an answer. You're questioning. You're questioning
this
scientific perspective.
Okay. As for I'll read you I'll read this to you for her parts.
Sinclair that's a woman in this article thought she was
inquiring about a technical glitch her brother, the brother
who are here we go, who along with three other siblings had
gifted her the DNA test for a birthday wasn't showing up right
in her family tree. Okay, so they did have multiple family
members, which I'm sure something people do the families
all you know, well. I got it. Right. Okay. So there you go.
That's how it works. Anyway, I just thought it would be a handy
tip for people who are considering this to know that
it's not without risk, or don't get your other family members
involved. That may be a better a better way to go. Just don't do
it.
Well, it just goes into the national database. You might as
well just put your shirt once you get tattoos all over your
body to identify you for sure. Yeah,
a nice QR code. And imagine all the people who could do that. Oh

of the out of the bag here. Hello, my name is Sam Garcia.
I'm an adult under 40. Living in the Sunshine State of Florida
working as an EMT slave, helping people in times of crisis and
emergency. I've been listening to the no agenda show since
episode 1018. And the guilt of not contributing to the value
for value system has driven me to become a sustainer at the
cool 3333 A month donation Thank you. I'm able to listen to the
show on the way to and from work and if I didn't have the show to
listen to I would be listening to some real crackpot stuff.
You and John in the mainstream media,
I guess. You and John are able to have deep conversations while
making it entertaining and not making the stretch scratch my
head trying to pull it all together. No matter what John
says about the OTG segment please keep it going. I love all
the info can't wait for my Verizon plan to end so I can get
a T Mobile or Metro PCS and get myself a Nokia II 71. I noticed
you talking about the Kyocera rugged cell phone last episode
or the one before and I wanted to mention, this is the exact
phone my aunt my ambulance company uses for its 24 hour
operations. Now see,
it's a pro. Yeah, it's a pro phone.
And then finally says speaking of radios, and he goes on how
they use it. I've always had an interest in radio, I always
thought it would love to be in the military or to have to be in
the military or in a field that actually used them to be hands
on with them. But when I heard about the wonderful world of
amateur professional ham radio on the no agenda show was blown
away with the opportunities and knowledge on the subject. I
would just like to say that you and John doing a fantastic job.
We should give more I'll start saving my money for an Associate
Executive Producer ship. Yes, being a ham is is very good for
you. It's good for your brains. It's good for your knowledge
base. It's good information to have and you need a couple
radios in your life. Because you never know and hams will save
the world. And then a second one from Joanne a write a second
note from Joanna Lynn. Hi Adam. The love of my life was
distraught this week at the lack of support coming in your show
has become the backbone of our sanity here in New York deep in
dimensi. B territory. We have even converted my dad into a
crackpot and Buzz killed Devo Tay good. Anyway we love you. My
fiance is already donating weekly and now I am to keep
fighting the good fight we appreciate you both best from
Joanna Lynn very nice. And and there's there's hundreds of
notes like that and we really appreciate it because that's
what gets us up in the morning to do this for you. And the
donations like this really makes the value for value systems sing
thank you it's appreciated and a lot of cars as requested jobs,

thank you for your contributions to the no agenda show. Some call
it by its true name, the best podcast in the universe. And we
are humbled. I do have one last segment of clips. We're running
a little long the affiliate should take note. But there was
a rather interesting interview with AOC. By what's her face?
From the news, our Amy Goodman. Did you happen to see this?
Amy Goodman?
Yeah, she did an interview with the Alexandria Ocasio Cortes
hours. She's
on Democracy Now.
DemocracyNow. I'm sorry. It's your beat. That's why I was
wondering if you knew what it was?
No, but that'd be a perfect interview.
Yes. And and I pulled? Well, actually, yes, I pulled three
clips from it. And it was a dual interview onstage in a theater
with an audience. She likes to do those. I didn't know she did
these. It's an interesting format. And even more
interesting, she had, it was a mayor of some town in Spain.
She's the first socialist mayor. So half of it was in Spanish
with a translator. And of course, Alexon either hungry or
are hungry. She broke out some Spanish and you know, so that
was all very good look, very good look. But I did want to
play these three clips. The first two, because from
Democracy Now, in any serious journalist, just this interview
itself, I found the leading the witness, in this case to be of a
level that is just unheard of that best. Amy is leading the
witness. Yeah, I
know. That's what I said. That's what she does best. And I'm
going to let her lead the witness. And then let's all
listen to the future of the Democratic Party speak, which I
think is still the plan. She not the future of the Democratic
Party. Is that not what the chairman of the Democrat Party,
the Democratic Party says? Hope
so? Yeah. Yes,
because it'll be fun.
But talk about what is happening in this country today. Right
immigration, just hours before we're meeting now. A judge has
ruled that families who have just reunited with their
children who Trump had snatched from them and the last drunk
did I mean, did you hear that? Trump had I mean, I know she's
sneaking them metaphorically. But that's just that's not
journalistic. Trump had snatched them
who have just reunited with their children who Trump had
snatched from them in the last year, which cannot be deported.
The judge has put a halt on deportations. Why did you go to
the border and what do you think needs to happen?
Well, I went to the border because our nation is in a moral
crisis. And there is no convenient time for us to stand
up and virtue signal against humanity, human rights
violations. each and every day that we allow these 2000
children that have been ripped from their parents, which is an
internationally recognized human rights violation,
I would beg to differ on that. She says these children who were
ripped from her parents ripped, like a band aid, that separating
them as an internationally recognized crime against
humanity.
At the border, Lulu wasn't a crime against humanity, but it
was some sort of crime.
She said crime against humanity. No, she
didn't go back. Okay,
these 2000 children that have been ripped from their parents,
which is an internationally recognized human rights
violations,
human rights violation. You're right. She said it differently.
But I think it's the same. I don't know. I I would like to
Snopes report on that. I would like to know that check. False.
This is being done in our name. This is being done in
representation of us as United States citizens, every day that
we allow the continued violation of those children's rights is
the day that I believe the moral character of the United States
is at stake. So for me, it wasn't a question of whether I
should go down there. If we have to have a rapid response. And I
think every day that we go on, she got that deal
with it. Oh, well,
wait, she's going down. That's going to be a parent. I know
your standpoint, these clips are for you. Lay back
to have a rapid response. And I think every day that we go on,
especially a day when something that heinous happens, we have to
occupy all of it. We need to occupy every airport need to
occupy every border, we need to occupy every ice office until
those kids are back with their parents period.
Okay. I like this. I liked it occupies coming back. That's
very interesting. Well, I have some more Mic check. Mic check.
Now. This is a clip for you that comes to the point you wanted to
make. Because you'll hear once again leading the witness. I
just want to check what did Trump say about Mexicans when he
first announced his presidency?
said a lot of them are rapists. Are you sure about that? laughs
I'm like that.
Okay. What did he say the President called the most
recently? Fine people. No, no, no animals. Remember? He called
them and I don't remember the animals? Yeah. Well, no, because
you said it about Ms. 13. Oh, yeah. Ms. 13 animals? Yeah.
That's recognized that he said that about Ms. 13. I think even
the mainstream recognize that.
I think so.
When President Trump ran for the presidency, the first day, he
talked about Mexicans as rapists, and now he's talking
about Mexicans as animals. Your response to President Trump? My
response is that's not what he said, this policy that has been
stopped by now listen to this churches, but now he is trying
to control the Supreme Court and the decisions that would go to
that level?
Well, I think that the best way that we respond to what can
widely be recognized, I think is rising fascism, know it and his
policies of it is that we have to go into ourselves and into
our communities and mobilize ourselves, you know, we need to
be ready when the next time or if this happens again. We need
to be ready to drop everything and go straight to LaGuardia
Airport. We need to be ready to drop everything and go straight
to our local ice agency. Because this is not someone that is
going to be capable of being convinced through a nice
conversation and a chat over coffee, or even an X score. She
ation on live television. This is this can only be blocked
through our own action.
Now this has particular meaning, especially for a global audience
that you have Alexandria Ocasio Cortez saying go to LaGuardia
airport because she actually represents
come on down.
This is where you jump in.
Well, first of all I'd asked when I go to Kennedy it's really
the International Airport. So one of the more applicable I
don't know what to say
she doesn't represent anything yet.
Oh, no. Ha ha dammit. You're
I cut that for you. Okay.
Yeah, yeah, no, she's not elected anything. So she doesn't
represent anything but just a candidate. Amy says blame he's
convinced he's already won. I think everyone the Democrats
have all thought this. Yeah, well
just list your meaning, especially for a global audience
that you have Alexandria Ocasio Cortes saying go to boarding
airport because she actually represents look come on down
represented.
Dad is pathetic you right? That's absolutely pathetic.
She's already won the election. I wish somebody would go run
against her some Republican it just boiler
Do you know that because of the the way the elections of course
the way the election laws are written that he'll say Crowley
stays on the ballot. Did you know that?
Oh, yeah. The Crowley does stay on the ballot. Not that it means
anything. Finally he's got he's still running. He says he's
running against her as an independent. He could beat her.
Maybe I don't know if she doesn't shut up.
I hope she hope she wins. I would love to see her. I mean,
she hopes she loses because I think it'd be funnier. Bell.
Well, well, the show wins either way, then
the show wins under all circumstances. The thing that
gets me there was some she said in there. She has a number of
things. It's just kind of Oh, yeah, welcome. She didn't win
when Amy, the great journalist Amy Goodman. When Amy said that
Trump called Mexicans animals, when as you point out, it was
referring specifically to Ms. 13. Which Why didn't she say
we're gonna find a way Ms. 13 out of El Salvador is not even a
Mexican gang. That would be the Mexican Mafia or some other
gangs. So he's not even calling even remotely calling Mexicans
animals because those guys aren't from Mexico. Why didn't
AOC being the great woman that she has stopped Amy's illegal at
least let's talk about this. But Ben be honest about he never
called Mexicans animals. She should she should have said that
but she didn't
Well, it was a it was a hagiography Hey, she interview.
Yeah, it's a hate. It was very hazy,
hazy, very hazy. Now LaGuardia as an airman, I know that
LaGuardia Airport has a lot of problems. I think they call it
the they call it the the aircraft carrier or something
like that. There's, I mean, it was originally built where it is
which is not very advantageous in hindsight, right on the
water, and that was for sea planes. And the you know, the
back in the day, there was a big sea plane, you know, a lot of
people using sea planes, and you could land on the water and then
taxi right up to the to the tarmac and people could you
know, it would be just a little bridge, you would have to get a
boat and all that crazy stuff. So LaGuardia is often known for
its water issues, you know, particularly during storms. So,
when what do you think is really causing everything? All the
problems global warming? Oh,
yes, development of LaGuardia airport also goes to the issue
of climate change.
Absolutely no, we have. We have we already are experiencing a
two foot sea level rise to
a two foot sea level rise on Manhattan to just one spot. 3952
Heavy.
Heavy. You want to clear land because you get the fish off the
runway. Please. Get the fish after.
flopping around two foot sea level rise.
People put up with this
we have we already are experiencing a two foot sea
level rise in our areas of New York 14 which directly border
LaGuardia Airport. So we're already starting to see
sometimes flights get delayed because so much water and
listen to what she's saying. Listen to what listen to the
logic of what she's saying.
We're already starting to see sometimes flights get delayed
because so much water and very heavy storms is starting to kind
of take over when it's
the storm, the water right washes up onto the runway. It's
been this way since inception
are these runways. These areas of LaGuardia Airport are
experiencing and going in are going to be facing very extreme
levels of sea level rises. And we need to figure out we need to
figure out how we're going to either protect the airport or
how we're going to adjust basically our infrastructure to
accommodate for that.
Yeah. Well, I'll tell you what her idea is because it's in this
interview, but I didn't clip it. She wants to get rid of
LaGuardia Airport for low cost housing. I mean, that's what New
York needs the tri state area needs one less airport. Brother
having Lipsy insane Yeah, well, no, she's she's, she's young,
she's uninformed. Doesn't have a life history yet. You know,
hasn't been around long enough.
Clearly he doesn't fly to New York much either.
And maybe she's
one less airport. We don't need all these airports. housing,
housing, housing, housing, low income housing. Yeah. And then
the
the final bias story that just irks me is is because it gets no
coverage and I'm just going to say it probably is getting no
coverage because fans of country music are probably Republicans
fuck them. MGM Resorts International just to get a more
favorable judge out of the district has sued 1000 victims
from the Vegas shooting Yeah, no and it's a trick you know it's
just a trick to get legal trick yeah to get a more favorable
judge but where's the outrage? Where's boycott Vegas man?
Screwed boycott MGM I don't want to boycott Vegas but screw MGM I
mean that's ruined screw the M five M for not even really
reporting on it. Well they reported on Yeah, but not out
this isn't that true? I is wrong. This is an outrage. We
still don't know what happened. And there's all kinds of weird
reports just no coverage It's pathetic. Pathetic
okay
I am couple of different ways I can go I got a couple clips. I
can play right you
get one thing I think our 10 minute warning has already
passed.
Yeah, I got I got two more I'm gonna have to get out of here.
Okay, I do it because our shore to shore I'll give you two
shorties instead of a good two shorties and the rest of it. We
got to keep up with Elon Musk Elon. And the pedo guy. Oh yeah.
Great story
was flexing his muscle there so they are in some good spirits.
There is a Silicon Valley angle to all this a tweet has Elon
Musk in hot water and it's costing Tesla billions of
dollars. This all stems from a Twitter exchange about that cave
rescue.
Tech reporter Scott Baldwin is here with the fallout Scott
Jenolan rush Fallout is the right word. You may remember the
$6 million man today we saw a $2 billion tweet courtesy of Elon
Musk, those billions coming straight from the wallets of
Tesla shareholders. The tweet was part of a back and forth
argument between musk and a British diver who helped rescue
those trapped soccer players from the caves. Musk offered up
small submarines you may remember one of his companies
worked on to help. Well, the subs were not used and that
diver called Musk's offer, quote a PR stunt. That's when Musk
tweeted quote sorry, pedo guy to his 22 million followers pedo.
It seems short for pedophile and accusation with no backing. Now
the diver is threatening to sue and Tesla stock lost $2 billion
worth of market value. It's after the tweet came out.
We just sue them. And I told you to short it and if you had then
you would have made some money and went back up but it
definitely worked
just as hard to short right now to make it stick. Yeah, go the
long term put anyway. The last one is a shut up slave moment
for the Californians who who went through the trouble of
getting all these signatures to get splitting up the state on
the ballot. But no splitting.
I got back in this country. The State Supreme Court of
California has blocked a November ballot measure to split
the state into three parts. Supporters argue the state has
grown too big and too diverse to govern. But the court ruled that
it needs more time to hear questions about their proposals
validity, the measure might still appear on some future
ballot
that went a loss on
that was gonna vote Yeah, of
course was already for that. Dammit. All right, everybody.
Fast and Furious today. We covered a lot of ground and
there will be much more to talk about on Sunday. We've got close

getting yourself I'm staying here
Oh need to know what else it's gonna be a great show.
I don't need to take that abuse. First. Deep breath
this is a big day that you have been watching is perhaps one of
the most disgraceful performances by an American
president that I've ever seen. It was probably
the low point of the presidency. Wow, disgusting President Trump
is not on America's team was nothing
short of treasonous. Donald Trump betrayed America. We have
a president who is betraying us
he was like a scared child away he
coward Trump was pretty nervous. Most people are nervous
when meeting their boss, he embraced him. He validated him
while trashing his own country and gave the middle finger to
America
embarrassing the country, the single most embarrassing
performance that I've ever seen, the United
States was attacked, and President Trump today sided with
the enemy. It is disgraceful, refusing to side with his own
country, his own country, you should call this the surrender
Summit. This
is evidence of collusion. What we saw yesterday was collusion
and he's basically
saying, I'm with read
why he did. So I can't really get into that.
I'm not a doctor. So it was so imminent. It's no wonder he
leaves the Russian summit with one balls and nice gift,
although
I think Putin
still has a set of Trumps balls all the time for Trump to put
his foot down. And he did right on America's dick. Sorry, it's
not funny.
They, I think feel like they can't depend on America. They
don't know what to expect. I mean, this is a global political
crisis.
Lisa Lerer Do you think it's that serious a global political
crisis? Or do you think people are just kind of listening to
the President and thinking well, you know, wait 15 minutes and
see what he says Oh, no.
Oh, US is unpredictable to the point where they have no faith
or trust. Oh, no. Oh, no, I think is a global political
crisis and totally agree. Global club global political crisis.
Michael,
global political crisis we are witnessing John

Welcome to the beginning of the end of Obamacare. He's a funny
guy, because he gets people that say stupid things.
Your son played the bass. We sat through that We are living in a
gigantic world is stunning in this detail.
The President is conflating the two issues. He's tying the
collusion. accusation. Okay. Any collusion? One of the reasons
why I lost my
job frankly Okay. and spreading it to the world. We're also
living in a grown up world of this. Unique tweeted treated.
