race as Adam curry, John C Devorah. Sunday November
11 2018. This is your award winning give on nation media
assassination episode 1085. This
is no agenda, honoring veterans
all around the nation and broadcasting live from the
capital of the drone Star state here in downtown Austin Jay Haas
in the studio in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where they're not acknowledging
anybody but Stalin. I'm John Cena Bara
Raglan Buzzkill.
Is that what they're doing in California? Yay. They're only
acknowledging Stalin's Stalin. No, come on.
You got to be kidding me. Right.
Well, yeah, I'm kidding. Yeah. Okay, good. I mean, I know, I
know, they're kooky terminology, Trump
as the wannabe Stalin.
I wish I could get to go to some of these rallies and pick up
some of these posters. You know,
I went to the rally I went to the, to the Protect Mueller
rally. here in Austin. Yes. Right after right after the
show.
Did you get any posters for me?
Well, no, there in fact, there were no posters. Everything was
handmade. So this was although it was organized, let me just
say I went so I can see city hall in front of City Hall from
from our balcony. So after the show, I'm you know, chilling out
and on the balcony for second. I'm like, Oh, look, there's Oh,
okay. That's the thing. That's the protector Mulan
movie. Yeah, protect New radicals want to protect the
FBI. So
I'm gonna go down there and just and I just kind of walked in
between them and I gotta say, first of all, a lot of American
flags a lot of patriotic flag waving, which is typically
associated with Republicans in Austin at least more right wing
white nationalist I should say there's no such thing as a
Republican only Nazis and so people are flying flags and
everyone there look alike which I think is what it was looked
like they had you know, they belong to a Facebook group you
know, they Oh, yeah, we're gonna meet up five o'clock right in
front of City Hall. A lot of DNC spokes holes on the microphone a
lot of Trump is not above the law a lot a lot actually. They
and then they won't then they these are very it's just like
the enemy is their rising the Republic very much so they in
the hurt a lot of the people themselves jump I would say
middle aged, a slight twinge of stress, you know, but no one was
unhinged. No one was you know, going nuts.
You gotta you will.
But is it possible that there are people who like to go stand
in crowds and just hold a sign? I noticed the number of people
and not even on a stick they just hold the sign up with one
hand and they're standing there and they're not looking at
anything that just gazing off into space, even as the as the
crowd is dissipating that just stand there. This may be a thing
that I don't know about.
Well, maybe you're in The Sims.
It was an NPC who's who's programming had just not had not
moved on to the next phase yet. Standing there Orange Man bad.
So it was it was very demure not not your anti fog crowd it was
like middle aged people who look very distressed because they
completely believe distressed while they yes that distress but
it's obvious they completely believe in some form of Russian
collusion. Zephyr thank goodness there we go. Anyway, so I
did think they completely believe in everything that's
there. I actually have a clip regarding this hold on a sec.
Among
those here. Have a look at the crowd. A lot of folks packed in
here. Organizers say their message. No one is above the
law.
That's not very similar to awesome. This I think is
Arizona. That was a video
for a jingle. I'm sorry. best they can do is get no Jas to it
at all. I know Donald Trump is not above the law above the law
is not
You're right. I mean there's no there's no melody there's no
nothing you can't rematch you know it's not catchy at all our
jingle people do better than that. And you know they will
have that
was videotaping within the last hour organizers said this
protest one of many plan nationwide is in opposition to
President Trump's firing of Jeff Sessions and appointment of
Matthew Whitaker as acting ag and concerns they have of what
this will mean for the special counsels investigation. Kevin
Whitaker has publicly been critical of Robert Moeller and
the investigation prior to joining the Justice Department.
Now this protest comes as 18 Attorneys General this afternoon
including Washington ag Bob Ferguson banded together to sign
a letter calling on Whitaker to recuse himself from overseeing
the special counsels, investigation.
Repression needs to be confronted early. Because loss
of our civil liberties follows the loss of the rule of law. And
right now the rule of law is threatened. It is threatened by
a president who is afraid of being held accountable.
This is going this is going nowhere. This this, this, Trump
is not above the law. It's just it's not working. Yeah, it's not
gaining any desired result. I think that just going back to
racism with Trump now in the rotation,
maybe it will no not. They have been picking on him for this. He
said he talked back to some Blackery
Ah, no, you don't have the full meme yet. Which by the way, is
everywhere today. Okay, the full meme is he is racist, because he
puts down black female reporters, not one, not two, but
three. And so this is what everybody is talking about us. I
mean, we are but this is now the racist meme of the week. And we
have proof that Trump is racist. Here's NPR, NPR, the bastion of
reporting on the radio
President Trump's feud with the media seem to take some ominous
turns this week. That testy exchange with CNN is Jim Acosta.
Are you worried?
That's enough? That's enough president. That's one of the
other
that led to a cost cost, of course, as you know, black woman
being barred from the White House. Then today, another CNN
reporter asked the President if he wanted his new acting
Attorney General to rein in Robert Muller.
What a stupid question that is. What a stupid question. But I
watch you a lot. You ask a lot of stupid questions.
The reporter asking that question was Abby Phillip, a
black woman? effect?
No, by the way, not that you and I saw no footage that showed the
reporter asking the questions but for NPR. By the way, did she
did she actually say by the way, a black reporter a black woman
on his new
acting Attorney General to rein in Robert Muller.
What a stupid question that is. What a stupid question. But I
watch you a lot. You ask a lot of stupid questions.
The reporter asking that question was Abby Phillip, a
black woman? In fact, I mentioned because the President
then went on to attack another black woman reporter April Ryan,
I mean, you talk about somebody that's a loser she doesn't know
what the hell she's doing. She can
also hedge by the way this is well done because the April Ryan
quote unquote attack refers to a press conference that where she
was not allowed to ask a question. And but they've
they've melded these two answers of his together as if he went on
right after that to say she's dumb. You know, I mean, it's,
it's, it's kind of a reverse whipsaw stuff. We
find out the show constantly. Yeah, it's
annoying. Cheating reporting.
Yes. Reporter April Ryan, I
mean, you talked about somebody that's a loser. She doesn't know
what the hell she's doing.
She also had choice words, this week for PBS is Jimmy Alcindor.
Another black female reporter some
people saw that as emboldening white nationalist. Now, people
are still saying, well, you're president, you're racist.
There's some people. So
what's going on here?
Now, here's something that is new on NPR, I think they've
figured out that they really can't sell it to themselves,
they can't ruin their own integrity by ginning up these
types of theories. I'm not gonna say it's a conspiracy, or
there's actually a conspiracy because everyone's doing it,
that the president you know, is racist. And here's the proof.
It's he's uh, he's very harsh towards female black reporters.
But they can't really sell that to themselves by you know,
talking about that. So they bring in the podcast,
Gene demby. Co host of NPR is code switch podcast is in the
studio with us Haiti, and
they have a lot of podcasts. And these people aren't necessarily
on the radio to the kind of like, well, was the podcaster
who said it? You know, it's not really NPR gene
painter. Luis,
what did you make of the President's exchanges with
reporters? Sorry.
I think that's dynamite observation. I think I have
another great they have their own straw built in straw man to
bring in beat the crap out of him or not, or have him say some
crazy stuff. And oh, well, there you go. There was an opinion
associated with us. So therefore, you associated with
us and so therefore you think the same way
and I've heard I think there's an may even be another clip from
NPR today where they do the exact same just bring in a
blogger be co hosting a podcast or something. NPRs
code switch podcast is in the studio with us. Hey, Jean. Hey
there, Louise. What did you make of the President's exchanges
with reporters this week?
I mean, it was interesting, right? I mean, if you look at
their response to you, Michelle, cinders question she asked this
very legitimate question about rising white nationalism and
whether the President's decisions
what what what was the question he cut? Why isn't white
nationalism? That wasn't the question the question Was
it about rising white nationalism,
president's exchange of data?
If this thing is filled, wait until this guy gets to the end
of your spiel and it's just boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,
one, untruth after another but in the lexicon for him
completely truth and completely
valid with reporters this week. I mean, it was interesting,
right? And if you look at the response to outsiders question,
say what is interesting, right? It was.
That was interesting, right? She
asked this very legitimate question about rising white
nationalism. And whether the President's decision to identify
himself as a nationalist was somehow contributing to that
Trump use an old tactic, though, from people who are defensive
about questions about race. They said they're talking about
racism is the real racism.
Ah, you see, I knew this was going to be problematic. When he
said that's a very racist question. That apparently is a
very old tactic that racist use. Yeah, racist will say that's a
racist question to deflect from their own blatant racism course.
actionless was somehow contributing to that Trump use
an old tactic though. People are defensive about questions about
race. They said they're talking about racism is the real racism.
It is not listening
to get hold on a second. So this guy, he has a little twang. Does
he? Is he black?
I believe so. But she didn't mention it. And by the way, I
think she should have or just sort of mentioned his creed,
color, race, whatever. And hers because we're identifying
everybody.
I agree they should identify, identify, is she she should
probably say what her pronoun is.
It's an email signature. Don't
worry about race. They said they're talking about racism is
the real racism. It is not listeners. Today, it was a
little bit different. Abby Phillip asked the President
about whether his acting Attorney General rule would rein
in the Russia investigation. Now, President Trump has
obviously said that that investigation is a witch hunt
suggested he would like his past Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
focus so much of the IRA between the two of them. Um, so it seems
like a legitimate question.
Okay. But as we just heard the President also attest
to what was wrong with it. They didn't resolve that I might want
to point out, it's so how what was wrong then? What he said
that it's a stupid question. I don't understand how was that
racist? They don't resolve it. They just say black woman. He
said something not good. Racist, Jim
Acosta, who whatever you think of him, he is not a black woman.
The President is singling out black women.
I mean, it's really hard to say right? The President has this
antagonistic relationship with the press broadly. On the other
hand, the context is larger context matters.
The President uses racially charged language in all kinds of
contexts.
Let's listen to him some examples.
Right. Just sparring with reporters? Exactly.
There's, you know, the fine people on both sides comment
after Charlottesville racist. There was the way he went after
NFL players who were protesting racial inequality in the
criminal justice system.
What do you say get those sons of bitches off the field? If i i
would tell the owner get that son of a bitch off the field
that's race as a race as
there's the Muslim ban race as and the language around that
language around that. Now, there's never been a Muslim? No,
of course not. But that's what we call it now in on NPR. I'm
sorry. It was the podcast who made a mistake? This guy is you
know that given too much freedom. I'm sorry. We won't
have him on again. Don't
worry. You know that April Ryan, who is one of the most prominent
members of the White House press corps,
prominent what what Who does she work for? Okay, American, urban,
American Urban Radio Networks.
Is that what it is? I think it's that April
serves the White House Chief, urban radio, American Urban
Radio Networks. She joined CNN also as a political analyst.
She's not she's not one of the most prominent White House
correspondent she sits in the middle of the pack, not at the
front where Jim Acosta gets to sit. She's not one of the
prominent members don't look fucking here but I'm just pissed
off that this guy's got
a nice CNN clips is April Ryan to Trump I'm not a loser should
have Debbie a nice clip.
And we do know that April Ryan, who is one of the most prominent
members of the White House press corps, she certainly seems to
think that he singled out women and people of color in the press
room. Here's what she said to CNN. You don't
see this kind of exchange happening with white males?
No, we didn't see that with Jim Acosta. Okay. And that
room as much as you do, oh, minorities, meaning African
American woman, myself, or women.
Jean didn't be when the President speaks to reporters at
the White House. He's of course also speaking to a much wider
audience. How does language like this play with his base?
Well, we know they love it. We know that their racism public
opinion polls that his base is especially skeptical of the news
media. According to a Quinnipiac poll from late in the summer,
about 51% of publican said that the news media is the enemy of
the people.
This is good. I have not seen this poll. I couldn't find it.
But now we've moved it to a poll. I mean, did the poll say
is the news media, the enemy of the people? Or did the poll say
is the fake news, enemy of the people? Now you're just doing
polls and you bring that in, and then whatever Trump actually
said, doesn't matter anymore.
We also know that from, you know, years of public opinion
polling that Republicans are conservative on racial issues,
they are more skeptical of sort of fixing inequality, through
the government for or on affirmative action on policing.
And so you have these in this case, you have three reporters,
who were also women, importantly, who sort of embody
Yeah, he's, well, he's a millennial got these two
demographics, they are members of the news media, and they are
also not white, very visibly not white. In a press corps that is
overwhelmingly white, is that true? White House press corps
overwhelmingly, overwhelmingly, so
Well, maybe the network's are racist, they're not sending
enough black and brown people and females and transgender dogs
with Trump has nothing to do with him. No, this has to do
with when they kicked
out was a white guy. Not white in a press corps that is
overwhelmingly white
is that still Trump is working on that he brought down the
white side by one. So score for the black side, you should be
happy.
White House press corps overwhelmingly, overwhelmingly
so
and so in a lot of ways. They may be literal embodiments of
the things that most animate some of Trumps base. Yeah,
racist. Let's check out CNN significantly shorter clip, but
this is Kirsten powers. And she just, you know, they're not
going to dwell on what happened but more on her analysis.
That was to Abby Phillip, of CNN. Joining me now is CNN
political analyst Kirsten powers and former Trump campaign aide
Michael Caputo. KEARSON. I'm just watching the president
there. You know, the Philippines as well, earlier, he I think was
on Wednesday, the press conference, he spoke to an
African record mark and reporters saying her question
was racist. You know, some have said that there is a racial
component to to destroy the President's willingness to call
African American stupid. Do you see
that? Yeah, I do. And, yeah, he plays on racial tropes that go
all
the way up. He call African Americans as a group stupid
word. That's what he just said. Do you see
that? I'm gonna listen and listen again. Let's roll it
back. I missed that. If that's what he said. Let's I
spoke to an African record mark and reporters saying her
question was racist. You know, some have said that there is a
racial component to to this or the President's willingness to
call African American stupid. Ah,
yes. Good catch. No, he called April Ryan stupid. I guess you
could parse it any way you want. He called women he calls women
stupid. Because black stupid black women and African American
women. Women under six feet tall. Do you see that?
Yeah, I do. And I yeah, he plays on racial tropes that rolls all
the way back to the beginning of this country and the idea of
all the way back to the beginning. That's right. That's
how far back Trump goes with his race isn't
black people aren't as smart as white people. Oh, my God, we in
our past had literacy tests for black people in order to vote
and I don't think is that true?
Do we have literacy tests for African
Americans to vote? I think Dixiecrats south. Yeah, I think
that is true. Democrats, by the way, don't even
Yes, Democrats could point we
in our past had literacy tests for black people in order to
vote. And I don't think it's a coincidence that he talks about,
you know, whether it's Don Lemon having a low IQ, or Maxine
Waters has a low IQ or LeBron James has a low IQ, or now we're
supposed to believe you know, Abby, Phillip is asking a stupid
question.
Oh, I see. Okay. All right. If you take all of those people
together, I can see how they, how they has you said this about
any white people. Trump's gonna watch it. Has he called any
white person? Yeah.
Well, I have to think about that. But yeah, wondering
whether he ever said LeBron James had a low IQ.
I think he's well, something similar, I'm sure. Who knows.
Maybe doubting it, maybe maybe we're wrong. Maybe he is
singling out African Americans for being stupid. I mean, when
you put that list together, that's actually pretty
convincing.
Otters has a low IQ are LeBron James true? Well, we know
we know. The Muslim ban. No, but we will hold on a sec, but I
know you're starting to buy into their bullcrap. No,
he has his I don't know about LeBron James, but he has said it
about Maxine Waters. He has said it about Don Lemon. So I'm just
saying that if you put that list together, I can see how they
come up with this thought
with this thinking. I don't think it's a coincidence. that
he or she
even says it's not a coincidence. He's actually
accusing the President
talks about, you know, whether it's Don Lemon having a low IQ.
Yes.
I remember that Maxine
Waters has a low IQ. Yes, I
remember that. Yeah, he did that all the time.
Or LeBron James has a low IQ. or Now we're supposed to believe
you know, Abby, Phillip is asking a stupid question. This
there is there's a conch has nothing to do with IQ. By the
way,
the theme here and it's frankly, it's right out of the white
supremacist playbook. I mean, this is classic.
It's classic. It's classic white supremacist classic. I'm very
tired of this now. Is this is this what the mainstream the M
five M is going to do now? Is this their track? There?
I guess we'll get to Lebron James. Stephen. Again. A video
that started up automatically.
Yes, we used to do that a lot at pod show.
Well, okay, that's some that's some that's something to
know what reason I care about this is because this is a trick
or a technique where you like the Muslim ban trick. Yeah, he
keeps just saying it over and over and over and over and over
and the next thing you know,
it's true. I think he said Mika Brzezinski is stupid his LeBron
James has just been interviewed by the dumbest man on television
is right out of a tweet. The dumbest man on television. Don
Lemon. Did he say he had a low IQ? Or do you just say is the
dumbest man on television?
Well, he said that about Don Lemon, right. D lemon.
Yeah. But does that the same as he's got a low IQ just the
dumbest dumb TV guy?
Yeah, you're right.
He says he so I'm not sure that you're saying low low IQ is a
very different.
Yeah, it's very different. I agree. And you're right. If he
calls
someone a bonehead. Does that mean you said they're they have
low IQ. Now you call them a bonehead?
Bone bone, wait a minute bone, because in Africa, the natives
had bones through their nose. You're racist.
LeBron James just interviewed by the dumbest man on television
Don Lemon. He made LeBron look smart, which isn't easy to do.
There you go. And then he says, I like Mike referring to Michael
Jordan, which is kind of inside basketball reference. So did you
say I had a low IQ? I said there should the two of them are dumb.
Okay. Not quite not the same as low IQ, low IQ, which she's been
accusing waters of. But she can have it her way in this regard.
I don't think it's a complete generality, because he just said
he likes Mike. Yeah.
Anyway, this is what it's syndicated. The Herald Tribune,
Florida. That's I think this is the Washington Post, The
Washington Post is on it. Over the past several days, Trump has
launched personal attacks against a trio of black female
journalists. His verbal assault against black reporters,
candidates and lawmakers has renewed criticism the president
employs insults rooted in racist tropes. That's where that girl
got it. froward kick Yeah, tropes, racist tropes. What
exactly is a trope?
Well, a trope is like a cliche, but it's it's an somewhere
between a meme and a cliche, but let's look it up.
Yeah, I think that's a good idea. Because that is part of I
mean, this this woman who was on CNN, she, she really just read
the Washington Post article and that's how she came up with
racist tropes.
trope is a figurative or metaphorical use of a word or
expression.
So it's kind of like one step removed from I hate you black
people.
Now, looking at this definition, or trying to
think it's like a I think you could call it
like an old saying, No, it wouldn't even be that Oh, no,
it's it's closer to figurative or metaphorical. I don't see how
it fits in actually, to be honest about it now
Strange, isn't it? Yeah.
But they like to word I noticed the left likes the word trope.
I've been to have always had a hard time using it because it's
just doesn't ever sound good. I don't like to sound or the word,
but also what good is it? It's like, you know, if we don't even
don't even understand what it means. Why would you use it? But
he says
over the past several days, I think they know what it means.
And I think the minis fit something what I expect
something along the lines of what I said which is it's kind
of like a meme, and a
Oh, okay. Ah, gotcha. I got my so blacks are stupid blacks have
low IQ. That's the trope. Because because it's kind of a
meme, a racist kind
of Amir's kind of a it's kind of a generality. Yeah, it's
figurative
Fall makes Well, according to The Washington Post, just to add
to it. He recently called Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum.
A thief, which is again, you know, it's like black people
thieves. It's all in this context, low IQ person thieves.
These are all tropes that are racist. I mean, yeah. Yeah. I
mean, you could build a case.
Okay. Yeah, exactly. And that's what's being done. They, I guess
they don't have anything else to run with it.
Now the, it's in the rotation, and it's got to come around and
they keep trying these different things, nothing sticks. Part of
the reason nothing sticks is Trump himself. He keeps tweeting
weird things that make people go off in another direction. It's
like, like a bunch of ants. Like if you have a whole horde of
ants and you got like one of those lighter guns, you know
that from Scripto that you like barbecues with and you push it
down into the thing and you start moving it around and
burning ants, you know, the my aunt thing, and they watched Him
scrambling all over the place. That's kind of what Trump does
with his tweets. Well, it's like drawing up like some kerosene on
the on the ants.
And we know that's the wrong thing to do. Because you never
want to torch the ant that's taken the dead guy back to the,
to the mound. So I have now let's talk about the national
the I'm a nationalist thing, because this is a fantastic mix
of the Lear Foundation, mainstream media, fictional
presidencies and real message meant to indoctrinate people
watching it. And this is Madam Secretary, which I don't think I
saw the last season maybe the last maybe not even the last two
seasons I liked in the beginning. I like Taylor Leone,
she's,
I've been well, I've been meaning to record this. What I
know what clip you're gonna play. But it's like a really, I
find the show to be borderline offensive.
It got really offensive. It wasn't in the beginning, in the
beginning was it was different. But now we're talking before
Clinton was running. Yeah, it'd be the first the first female
president. We're really the second as you pointed out in the
newsletter.
Yeah, and that's a fact. By the way, why just briefly tell
everybody? Well, during the before I talk a little bit
Arvest, today's Armistice Day, even though we don't celebrate
in the United States, we celebrate Veterans Day, which
was a creation of this in the 50s. Because the World War Two
veterans were just back from the war. And they say, What are we
so cares about these old guys? It's got to be about us. And I
know it's offensive. But it's seems to be the if you look into
it, it seems to be what it was about sort of changing the
Veterans Day. And they still kept, I think, a World War Two
Memorial Day. Well, during the Woodrow Wilson administration,
when after World War One, they tried to, you know, the United
Nations, the League of Nations was discussed and formed, I
think it ended up in Geneva. And they, it was going to be the
first example. And this was a globalization era, right? was
similar to the one we have now. And that globalization era,
which ended up in that war, which is the same way this one
is going to end up after the thing was over, was it one of
these situations where all the you know, the elites had God,
this is no good, like all the blue gill or we don't have
servants in our we lost, we lost the butler, you know, the
lifestyle and some of the people that write for the newspaper or
have been killed at this war that we told them to go to. And,
and people came trying to steal our stuff. Yeah, we got to do
something about that. So they just formed the League of
Nations. And Wilson's job was to get the United States to join
and this is going to be a, you know, an organization where it's
going to would it ended up like the United Nations useless. But
at the time, they thought it was a good idea. And Wilson get a
tremendous stroke that completely made unfunctional
right. You should have been taken out by the 25th Amendment,
by the way. Yeah, but no, no, Democrats don't work that way.
So the
so now you just sound like a Republican man. I don't do don't
do those things that doesn't suck. Doesn't doesn't suit you.
Well,
people are gonna bitch about me anyway. So but it was, it was
strange to me that this guy could be incapacitated, and the
25th Amendment didn't apply to him. So that means it's never
gonna apply to anybody. So his wife was president. She just
told everybody what to do as a surrogate, and she was, you
know, she did a fine job. She couldn't she, you know, she
could maybe communicate with them. It's doubtful, but she
used the same advisors. Nobody wanted to talk about it because
it was like, Oh God, or the country's gonna go to,
you know, it'd be fun finds out if, if we gave a posture Miss
congrat Presidential Medal of Honor. For Yeah, yes for her
service as president. Just to urge Hillary just to irk Hillary
and put her on the
presidency, the same one that's some Maybe we should just
impeach Trump and put Hillary and yeah. Yeah, same kind of
thing. That's fantastic. But this was only recently explored
by historians.
Now. Another salient point you added to the newsletter was that
just before but what period was it just before? Just after World
War One before World War Two that the everything was
borderless? No that was done before World War 130
years, right, that began around 1890. Right in earnest, almost
30 years, the passport because you do research on passports,
you find they weren't even employed from about 8092 That
war and so people could roam around aimlessly, which allowed
this one nut case from Serbia to go shoot the guy that Ferdinand
douchebag guy
that learned something about that today. Archduke Franz
Ferdinand was murdered on Sarajevo June 28 1940. In his
car, his open car at 4914. Yeah. Do you know what his license
plate was? Was a bunch of threes? No. A for alpha 11 1118?
I don't believe that. Yes. Go go look at the interwebs there's
lots of photographic evidence.
Well, I'm gonna have to look at unless it's just sounds too and
this
conspiracy that, you know, he knew that it would be over. I'm
just telling you go ahead and look at the conspiracy about
1111 ad fraud for
auto shoppers are out there. I don't think it's
Photoshop.
It's unlikely that doesn't make any sense. But okay, I'll look
into it saying
I'm not saying that aliens came here and put it down as like,
Oh, be careful. You'll be celebrating Armistice Day. 100
years as just a coincidence.
Anyway, so Ferdinand was gunned down in this situation and so
they Austria declared we're we're on Serbian and that
blossomed into World War One. awkwardly, you know, people take
sides. Yeah.
All right. So
for some reason, I don't know why Austria didn't take the
brunt of the of the blame at the end. It was blamed on the
Germans. Who were guests got into it.
I just saw by coincidence, I saw the sound of music that didn't
know that there was a 2015 musical they did in BBC did.
You mean the old musical was redone by the BBC in 2015? Yes,
exactly. I saw it. I liked it. I like hate it. Oh, yes. Yeah, I
like that stuff. And I was looking
at my good Broadway plays on Broadway and the stage but when
they're put on TV, and they're singing out of the blue, I like
it's it's completely and I thought to sing I thought it was
the performances were weak. Yeah, I like to think the I the
actor who played the top Durbanville whatever his name
was, was the main guy. Yeah, I don't know. Is he not
Durbanville obvious I'm just kidding, but I thought he
couldn't act. Well.
What the reason why I stuck with it is like the actress who
played Maria I'm like, I know her. I know her Who the hell and
I still don't remember her real name, but she is Don and East
Enders, which is the soap that's been running in the UK for 50
years. Like, oh, that's dawn. Okay. And then I kind of got
sucked into it. I thought it was great.
I liked it. misuse. Okay. Well, yes. But
the question is, did you donate to what? Well, it was. It was
donation,
right to point this out to people in that house. Yes. I
said, See, those two people asked you to donate. They never
mentioned the station name. Do they know it's a package they
sent to all the stations of the same two people begging for
money? They don't even they don't even personalize it to the
stage to the local station. Yep. It says the number below the
number below number to support your
state local station. This station know this station. I
heard him say that too. But there wasn't even a tote bag. I
mean, it's just here's the DVD. Yeah, it's so ineffective is so
ineffective. They really aren't doing it. Right. Anyway, back to
Madam Secretary. And well actually, I do want to come back
to Armistice Day after this, because I have a little analysis
of Macron and Trump. But this and I'd heard about it. I hadn't
seen it either. In fact, I still have not seen it. I really enjoy
not having seen this and hearing it because we're going to hear
the fantastic acting talents of we have Hillary Clinton, Colin
Powell and Madeleine Albright all former secretaries of state
and this is madam secretary Terry Leone playing.
I believe it was the premiere episode for the new season. It
can be yes. But it was it was it was And
well, you believed and I said it can't I don't know. Yeah, it
would go on. You just.
It's just usage. I'm sorry.
It's okay. It's all right.
But this was clearly aligned with the messaging about
nationalism, with Trump saying, I'm a nationalist, and just
blatantly stating, This is not what it means. This is what it
used to mean. Well, you'll hear? Well, I
do appreciate that.
Come on, please sit at a time when people need to rally round.
Wow.
It's so good of you to consult with your predecessors. We did
it all the time. So thanks for asking us. Well,
again. The President has asked me to give a speech after the
signing ceremony to address the attack on the White House.
They're a heavy burden. Elizabeth, the whole world
watching, you know, pressure,
thanks for that reminder. Right, no pressure. Well, what do you
say in the wake of a nightmare like this,
made reassure the people that they are safe because we are
resolute in our efforts to defeat this enemy.
And you should hold up a vial and say this little bit could
kill everybody in this whole room. That would be the way to
do it, Elizabeth,
resolute in our efforts to defeat this enemy. Well,
that's historic. But I think we also have to remember that those
who attacked us are wrestling and you will have to reassure
people
the acting is really bad.
But it's to this day was obviously they weren't going to
do two takes
no Well, no, I think they may it's cut together because what
you're hearing that they may not have even all been there at the
same time for all I know. But listen, one shot but Clinton,
you know, and I heard her a couple of times. I'll just
mention this upfront. I heard her in a previous interviews
that we've played with Kara Swisher and all these, whatever
she was doing the lesbians in tech. She kept saying there's
it's very simple. E pluribus unum out of many one UCS has
been repeating this for a while. And now we know why this enemy.
That's historic. But I think we also have to remember that those
who attacked us are resolute too.
And you will have to reassure people about their safety. You
can remind them that we do have the world's greatest military to
protect and defend them. But
you know, as great as our military power is, that is not
where our real strength lies.
Absolutely. Our strength lies in our core democratic values in
our constitution
was the thigh was a little girl in London during World War Two
when the Germans were bombing. I learned later that three of my
grandparents were murdered by the Nazis in concentration
camps. And so the threat of nationalism is not just a
theory.
Okay, so this is very good. This is Madeleine Albright, who I do,
I believe, indeed, she is old enough to have witnessed the
bombings. I think that's probably historical. By the way,
do you hear how Hillary Clinton sounds exactly the same as when
she's not lying?
No, she's just monotone when she's not acting, I mean, to
this day out of people who I remember years ago, so Oh,
Hillary, she's gonna be the next she's gonna be a first female
president. And the great thing about her she's a wonderful one
of the greatest public speakers I've ever heard. You listen to
her, ya know, everyone talks to everyone as though they're two
years old, in concentration
camp,
and here we go with a nationalism.
So the threat of nationalism is not just a theory, I went
through it once, and I don't intend to go through it again.
So she's saying that she was bombed by the Nazis, and that
was nationalism, and she doesn't intend to go through
nationalism. Again, she makes quite a short cut.
Nationalistic threat is really expanding and more and more
countries are being caught in this trap is contagious. He
splits us apart and makes us more difficult to deal with the
issue and it becomes even more
I don't know what is the issue, man, it's the it
makes it more difficult to deal with the issue be by being
nationalist. And by be and by the way, Trump's definition of
nationalism is America first. The French, by the way, hugely
French first, people friends, of course, by the Rando, you don't
buy the Han die. A guy friend of mine lived in France for like
five or six years and he bought a Honda Civic and all he got was
grief from his neighbors. Because he didn't buy French
France. Yeah. Right. But but but this is this is not even about
that. This is just about saying when when the President says
he's a nationalist, he's actually a racist. That's all
that this is and it's two minutes of it.
It makes us more difficult to deal with the issue and it
becomes even more contagious.
They attach what has made America great and still does and
that is our diversity. I mean, look at look at us.
The attackers wanted to destroy that to
get you your white folk. I think Conde Nast, I think kindie is
there too.
I was Conde there, too.
I believe she was.
So you know, Elizabeth, I think what we're all saying is talk
about what unites us, even at this moment of peril, remind
Americans of our nation's original motto, something that I
think about a lot and which seems more important today than
ever. E pluribus unum out of many one.
How are you? You're so right, because we depend on each other.
America, Americans,
all Americans, all Americans?
Yes. Where we go on where we go all.
Maybe Condi wasn't there, she would have jumped in on that
one. I thought she was now
do you want to hear the actual speech that she made after this
advice? Condi No, no, the fakes, Madam Secretary. So she got this
advice from Hillary from Madeline and from colon. And
then she did her speech. I cut it down because it was too long,
of course.
Thank you, Mr. President. And thank you, Prime Minister,
country Prime Minister we daily your courage and determination
have made humankind safer from the second greatest threat it
faces what is an even greater threat than nuclear weapons?
That which makes the use of them possible? Hate specifically, the
blind hatred one group or nation can have for another? And that
is why I am convinced that nationalism is the existential
threat of our time.
Nationalism is not just bad. No, it's not just Nazi. It's the
existential threat of our time, meaning the extermination of all
of us we're all going to die because of nationalism.
I want to be clear nationalism is not the same as patriotism.
Wow, that did the dictionary change let me just check this
for a second. Nationalism.
Definition
Okay, now patriotic, patriotic feeling principles or efforts.
You patriotic to me? Let me try the Merriam Webster. I may be
doing the wrong one wrong. loyalty and devotion to a
nation. Okay. Doesn't say patriotism.
I always thought that the definition of patriotism was
look at the definition of patriotism. Okay.
Patriotism,
definition of patriotism, the quality of being patriotic,
vigorous support for one's country. Sounds like
nationalism. Yeah. Well, according to the fake Madam
Secretary, it no longer means patriotic Monday
clear. Nationalism is not the same as patriotism. It's a
perversion of patriotism, perversion of patriotism.
What's the what's the dictionary term for that? If it's the
opposite?
an antonym an antonym?
Yes, it should be listed as an antonym in the dictionary. It's
the snide perversion of patriotism.
Just look at the definition of perversion. I need to Persian
perversion the alter alteration of something from its original
course. Meaning or this is the perversion
he's perverting. And she Yes, exactly. That is the perversion
by saying it's no longer Patriot no longer synonymous with
patriotism.
Yes duration of something from his original course meaning or a
state to a distortion or corruption of what was first
first intended not intended last week. Geez. Alright, let's
continue distortion, misrepresentation,
falsification, travesty, misinterpretation.
misconstruction, twisting corruption, Subversion and
subversion is what we're dealing with.
Nationalism. The belief system held by those who attacked us
promotes the idea that inclusion and diversity represent weakness
of God. Nationalists here
calling Hello.
Hello Hollywood foundation Norman Lear speaking
that the only way to succeed is to give blind allegiance to the
supremacy of one race over all others. Nothing could be less
American. Look where isolationism has gotten us in
the past. Two world wars 70 million debt.
What? Why? Because we isolated ourselves Oh, two world wars 70
million detail World War we save people's asses. What? Look what
isolationism been to World War One that when I say yeah,
there's isolationism there we had nothing to do with that war.
But we went over there. I point on the newsletter why, why? What
was our what who was picking on us?
Well, but it's worse. She's saying because of our
isolationism, which, by the way, you can't on one hand, say it's
about race, white nationalists about you know, anybody who's
not the Uber race, and then all of a sudden say, Look at what
happened with isolationism. Well, that's about countries not
participating. You can't have it both ways. It's either
nationalism about your national country, or its nationalism
about the type of people you have in your nation. It's not
both, or maybe it is in this world. Yes,
this was done to confuse confuse a day couldn't really come up
with a concise this doesn't work. No, it was a piece of
propaganda that was pretty much in my opinion, junk. poorly
executed, it was all had Lear foundation written all over it.
When I first saw this thing, I was lazy not to clip it. weeks
ago, I used to
you actually saw the whole the whole episode.
Yeah, I watched it. Ever. Yeah. And I thought it was borderline
sick. And I think it's offensive. I mean, how stupid
they think the public is. Okay. Well, well, by saying I was just
pitching to the last show about Prop 10. And prop six in
California, prop six would have given you some tax money back
but nobody in California wants that they want to be taxed to
death. And prop 10 was going to put rent control which is a
leftist idea at the base of giving it back to the local
towns instead of having the state run it which they do a
poor job of, which is classic thing you should vote for. But
because the real estate interest came in and told all these
dummies, oh, no, no, no is bad. Okay, I'll vote no.
Let's finish this up
others. Nothing could be less American luck where isolationism
has gotten us in the past. Two world wars 70 million debt.
Never again, can we go back to those dark times when fear and
hatred like a contagion infected? That as much as ending
the threat of nuclear war is what today is about is why we
must never lose sight of our common humanity. Our common
values, and our common decency was reminded recently of our
nation's founding motto e pluribus unum out of many
years he said someone someone reminded me recently Hills E
Pluribus Unum so they're they're pushing her campaign slogan, I
think. I don't know why she's saying this continuously. But
they pushed it in twice in this piece.
Have something in 2020 13 disparate colonies became one
country one people and today we call on all Americans and people
everywhere to reject the scourge of nationalism. Because
governments can't legislate tolerance, or eradicate hate.
Each one of us has to find the beauty in our differences. Okay.
Just one more reiterate one more point ISIL our isolationism
didn't get us killed in World War One and World War Two. It's
our Abnegation of isolationism and saying no no, we're gonna
get involved in all this stuff overseas, which the founding
fathers by the way, specifically said no, don't do it. But we do
it to the point where now we're stuck because if we are
isolationism didn't get us over there. It was our dropping the
idea. Yes. Now it's too late. Now you're stuck now. world's
policeman.
So I think another lie, although I couldn't quite figure out what
the genesis of it was. Is this idea that Trump I'm so tired of
the Trump didn't want to do the wreath laying ceremony because
of a little bit of rain. And you know, the tweeters were just
filled with what an asshole men were shoulder to shoulder
millions of them in the trenches for weeks on end in the rain in
the mud and, and our stupid as president can't even the
raindrops keep falling on his head. Meanwhile, once I saw the
reef laying thing, I'm like, Oh, no wonder. Did you see all the
photos of Merkel and Macron they're walking in the meadow
hand in hand. She's nuzzling up to him I'm not kidding kisses
him behind his, you know on the back of his cheek who wants to
be a part of that visual? Here's his little press clipping of it
has been the scene of triumph and shame in two world wars. And
on Saturday for the first time since World War Two a French and
German leader returned to a clearing incompetent forest.
Inside a replica of the train wagon, in which the armistice
ending World War One was signed, into which Hitler returned to
take the French surrender in 1940, before destroying the
site, Emmanuel Macron. And angler Merkel unveiled a plaque
and signed a guestbook. The wagon was rebuilt along with the
site after World War Two, in part in homage to Marshall fosh,
the great wars Supreme Allied Commander, and his statue of
forces also at the site, which holds powerful symbolism for the
two nations, once fierce rivals, and now united as the driving
force behind the European Union. A partnership Macron and Merkel
seem to be saying that would remain eternal long after their
passing.
You know, please, we all know the next war will be French
France and Germany. It's always the same. But I think what was
overlooked possibly is that, you know, Trump probably had his
meeting with Putin while everyone was at the ceremony. In
fact, there's another piece it's just a piece of video where
Putin jumps out of the lineup runs over to Trump shakes his
hand Thumbs Up goes back, you know, it's like, oh, yeah, they
got something going on. They're brewing on something. But the
irony of all of this, as we celebrate peace, 100 years, the
Armistice of peace, World War One, it was the war to end all
wars. The irony of it is that what was really being discussed
was war stuff. Yeah, I mean, right. So Trump is on the plane.
And then apparently, Macron says, somewhere, well, now we
got to have our own army here in Europe, we got to be you know,
we can't always trust the US. It's a little more nuanced in
the French version. But you know, with Russia, China,
whatever it is, we need more of war stuff. Trump than
immediately starts tweeting saying, Yeah, well, this is
rude. Since we're paying for everything you frog, and then
they sit down together. And again, you gotta listen to what
Trump's saying. I think what happened is he had a quick chat
with him by the McCrone is touching him the whole time.
He's, he's patting him on the legs touching me touching him on
the arm the whole time. You know, which, that's actually
when someone does that. It's odd. But you know, maybe they're
great buddies. I don't know. But it sounds it sounds to me like
the conversation went something like this. Yeah, okay. What I
meant to say was, yeah, we're probably going to buy more stuff
from America to beef up our side of the equation. I think Trump
is there on a weapons call. I think he's they're selling. I
think he's trying to think okay, Macron you want to buy stuff
pretty sedate the whole time while he was doing I have the
CBS rundown of this which is minute 4014 Is Trump meets
Macron.
here that's because that's the full audio our trump vetted on
Twitter about the president
of France. The two leaders brushed it off wheezes ng is
traveling with the president.
We have become very good friends over the last couple of years.
President Trump and President Emmanuel McCrone put their good
friendship on display with the body language to prove it. They
also found a common message to tamp down their ongoing conflict
over defense spending.
I do sure first in front of us that we need a much better
burden sharing within NATO.
I appreciate what you're saying about burden sharing.
But minutes before landing in Paris, the president tweeted
President McCrone of France has just suggested that Europe build
its own military in order to protect itself from the US,
China and Russia. very insulting. Mr. Trump was asked
about the tweet,
we're getting along from the standpoint of fairness. And I
want it to be fair when
President Trump and the First Lady attended a social luncheon
with their French counterparts, but they scrapped a scheduled
visit to an American Cemetery citing bad weather. Meanwhile,
the President continues to deal with the backlash over acting
Attorney General Matt Whittaker, who will oversee the special
counsels investigation into Russian meddling.
Now, that's a very dishonest report. I mean, extremely
dishonest. I'll play you the actual audio from that meeting
between the two Macron is groveling. That didn't sound
like it like he was groveling in that report, did it?
No. That's not the impression we were given from
the standpoint of fairness. And I want it to be fair, we want to
help Europe and it has to be fair. Right now, the burden
sharing has been largely on the United States as the President
was saying he understands it. And he understands that the
United States can only do so much. In fairness to the United
States, we've were rebuilding our military, we just had
approved $716 billion the year before that we had 700 billion.
So we're almost completely rebuilding our military with the
latest and the greatest. And we want, we just want, we want to
absolutely be that we want to help.
You actually want to be there, I went on with the bids or
whatever
be a part of it. But different countries have to also help.
That's only fair. And I think the President, we've already
discussed this, and the President and I very much agree
on that.
I do agree, I think we work very closely together in Syria, but
in front of the mind, you want to happen as a surgeon, so
federal,
he's talking about the 30th of April, when America the Brits
and the French bombed Syria,
the super operation against chemical weapons. And then we
work very closely together in Middle East, in Africa, and so
on. But it's unfair to have the European security today, being
assured just by the United States, and we need a much
better version. And that's why I do believe that we need more
European capacities, more European defense, in order to
take this part of the burden what Britain Trump has to
protect or to defend one of the one of the states of the United
States, it doesn't ask France or Germany, or another government
of Europe to finances. That's why I do believe that we need
more investments. It's exactly what we do in France. It's the
first increase in terms of budget for defense for the
coming year, we will reach the 2%. But that's why I do believe
that we need more.
He's, I mean, the the CBS report could not have been further from
what was said from the truth. And he's saying the President's
right, we got to upgrade. we're upping our budget. We're gonna
have more stuff. It's not fair that America is paying for that.
When Trump needs help. He doesn't call us none of that was
in the report. Nope. And this surprises
you?
Well, no, I don't think I have the clip. There was a like two
or three rallies ago that the President did. And I don't know
if I just forgot to play it or, but there was someone had a
medical issue a medical episode. And you might have seen it Trump
actually stopped, stopped, everything stopped the rally
stop the rally and it was a good five, maybe 10 minutes. And then
near the end, everyone was reasonably quiet. People started
singing Amazing Grace. It was really a beautiful moment for
it's like, holy crap, are they singing and it just kind of
swelled up from nowhere and was very, very it was it was a nice
human. It's humane experience. I mean, even I forgot to play the
clip. We're so not used to that. But there's nice deal by
omission sometimes it's so slanted what's been that's true
it that's just the trick. Oh, mission is the best way to do
it. It really is.
Well, mission is what the right has always bitched about the
conservative media is that it's not that the people can't do the
reporting. It's just, it's what is and it's not what they put
in. It's what they leave out. Yes. And I'm gonna take your
right to I'm going to take your right to what my biggest
complaint is or what they're leaving out, which is Yong Kim.
Yes. You know, Yong Kim, apparently has been around for a
while.
I think Yeah. Well, she was I think, chief of staff or
so I think someone sent us a note that she'd actually been.
She says he had been in, in Congress in 2014. It's not the
first
time she's so we do. It's easy enough to figure out we did go
to
quite a book of knowledge day, but I'm pretty sure that but
anyway, y'all look her up and you tell the story. Are you
about Yong Kim? Was that was that it?
She No, I've got some clips. Okay. No, she was in a state
legislator. Okay. And she was the first Korean American to
become state legislator. Okay. All right. Then she went to
Congress. Gotcha. Wasn't in Congress and became a state
legislator. Nobody does.
I hear that she said, but she was not mentioned. In fact, that
all
she has yet to be mentioned in fact is that but I'm finding
another peculiarities and everything on Yong Kim, I sing
at a clip where they talk about this, I think is Shields and
Brooks. Here it is Shields and Brooks 33 of 34 women read play
this little just a little short clip
33 or 34 women elected to the House for the first time. Were
Democrats. 34th
No, no, the 34th is Carol Miller. She's the Republican if
you go to roll call, which is serving the public since nine In
55 is the great, you know, the great congressional following
operation. Meet Carol Miller. She could be the only new
Republican Woman coming to Congress next year. The GOP is
only woman so far will represent West Virginia's third district.
And they have a picture they like to promote this woman.
She's one of those old, older women that has like, kind of the
bleached, kind of the burns, Montgomery burns from their
senses kind of skin to white. It's all wrinkly, and she
learned she has to wear sunglasses and a hat. She won't
even wear some bronzer or anything. But then let's see.
The outrage not even wearing bronzer. Well, the people.
If you look at this picture of her it's like, oh, yeah, I know.
That's a Oh, white woman. I'm gonna read the first line of
this of this article about Carol Miller. Among the 33 new women
elected to the House this week. Only one is a Republican
instead, as you know, the 33 meme is in play and I realized
that with the Brooks and shield accountability
matter if you don't vote
now this has taken further with democracy now refuses to talk
about it. And and the thing that I've also noticed is that
there's a another woman, you know, the kids they keep talking
about the two Muslims who got elected. Yes. Well, who are
these two Muslims?
Yeah. Are they both in Minneapolis or Minnesota? Or is
it just No, no,
no try play the two Muslim women diversity clip from CBS from our
last show.
Appears diversity was perhaps the biggest winner in this
year's midterm elections, which saw a record number of women run
for office. Jim Axelrod introduces us to to from the
class of 2018.
Election day marked its fair share of firsts. The stories of
two particular Trailblazers may well carry the most power. That
is if you're taking their measured not by where they
finished their journeys, but from where they started.
We are done waiting. We are the ones we have been waiting for.
Let's get to
Minnesota, 36 year old Ilhan Omar became the first ever
Somali American elected to Congress
here in Minnesota. It's a cold state, but the people have warm
hearts and we don't just welcome immigrants, but we send them to
Washington.
My mom is born in Somalia, she and her family fled the violence
of Civil War when she was eight. After years in a refugee camp in
Kenya. She emigrated here when she was 12. Learning English in
three months. America I'm gonna go fight for mastering politics
in the years that followed and proud to be able to bring my
voice out 27 year old Democrats of fear Wazir is the first
refugee ever elected to New Hampshire state house. Her
family fled Afghanistan and the Taliban 21 years ago spent 10
years in a refugee camp. Before making their way here. She
studied the dictionary at night to learn English.
One thing a younger generation could do is the energy that you
have you want to be the advocate for seniors and young people and
working families.
These days our politics clearly can frustrate angry and divide
these two winners provide a much needed reminder our election
still have the power to inspire
now they never mentioned she's there are these are Muslim
women. And this specific thing they never mentioned is Rasheeda
Talib another young Kim that nobody wants to talk about why
there's just more than one young Kim well I'm saying somebody
that's been obviously blackballed from from coverage
she is a radicals radical this to leave woman she's from
Detroit and they don't and she's new she's a bent she's
women so they don't even mention her and I just for someone
hearing the name.
Yeah, that's proof they don't even mention her the only
Democrat Democrat socialists
that's why she's in the AOC camp. Yes, yeah another
marginalized or she can't even get paid to get an apartment.
So so let's let's go with to leave which is spelled T l ai B.
And with this go to to leave intro by Amy and tell me tell me
the kind of the earmarks of this little celebration. Some of the
other stuff about this woman you'll get a kick out of Tuesday
evening, Palestinian America and Rashida to leave and Michigan
and Somali American Ilhan Omar in Minnesota became the first
Muslim women elected to Congress or to leave
Don't even mention the Afghani woman from New Hampshire. But
this is this is this is all segmenting. It's unbelievable to
me.
Really.
Democratic socialist who supports the Palestinian right
of return in a one state solution. She also supports
Medicare for All a $15 million a 15 minute a $15 minimum wage.
I think 15 minute breaks is better
abolishing ice. The child of immigrants to leave has spoken
out against the Trump administration's travel bans.
This is Rasheeda Talib celebrating her historic victory
a small village in the West Bank. They're literally glued
it's like five o'clock.
Now it's more than that. They're glued to the TV, my grandmother,
my aunt's my uncle's are sitting and watching their grandma
we got some Iranian women in the audience I hear.
The last thing is do the same Palestinians do.
As I love uplift the families of the 13th congressional district
uplift them every single day have been who I am as a pro
Palestinian American
in 2016 Rashida to leave made news when she confronted then
candidate Donald Trump at the Detroit Economic Club, she got
up and shouted Have you ever read the US Constitution? She
was taken out by security
but she was removed used to do use the proper word taken out.
Taken out she was removed. Boy, he replaces that old hack that
just a senile old fart John Conyers is now at no GS. Yes.
Okay. So you it was useless.
Well, the last decade Yeah. No.
So so she gets does an interview with her. And she has a bunch of
interesting things, I think are worth playing. These are all
short clips, because they're just, I mean, she's already full
of herself. She's, you know,
let's just let's just put this in perspective for a second. So
this is DSA, Democrat socialists of America. Same as Alexandria,
Ocasio Cortez, who has been completely sidelined
marginalized not is also not mentioned in many of these news
reports the way we expected because she is of course the the
the shining light the hero. Yeah. And I believe is Yeah, and
she stands for the same things. It's Medicare for All Free
School for everybody. No borders. No borders.
Ice is gotta go no ice. Right? Yes. Okay. All right, without
even being stepping through it. Now. She the difference between
of course AOC and this woman and the other woman and some of
these other people is that referring to Yong Kim Yong Kim
was the state legislature. Rashida is also a state
legislator that moved up. So that makes you know, it's just
gonna just stupid. So let's see what she's already got her mind
made up a bunch of things. She hasn't even stepped foot in
office yet listens to her on there. What is she going to do
you have a pushy MPT want to impeach Trump?
Will you try to impeach President Trump?
Let me guess the answer. Let me think, Oh, see? I think she
would say she wouldn't just say yes, you'd say as soon as
possible first order of business. Yes.
I truly believe that he's obstructing justice. It is very
clear that something is wrong within our own government. You
can like the man but I can tell you, I know you like the rule of
law belt more. And in America, there is laws that we all
there is laws, there is laws, baby, there is laws. There is
many law
follow that we all should equally be held accountable to.
And I can tell you very strongly that this is not political for
me. I mean, he could be a Democratic president and I would
still say the same thing. Obstruction of justice and as an
attorney myself
straight, is it the Democratic Party or the Democrat party?
What
is the actually the Democrat party, so
why she's saying Democratic president?
If she's a member of the Democrat Party, it's pretty much
saying
he's used as just flipped around. I don't like it.
I mean, I mean, he could be a Democratic president. And I
would still say the same thing, obstruction of justice. And as
an attorney myself, I can tell you, when we start kind of
turning our heads and letting a little bit of things slip by,
like what we've seen the last few days, we are jeopardizing
our own democracy, we are jeopardizing that accountability
and that balance of government that's there. That is so
critical for us to live in a free country. We cannot allow
him to
live So this is very typical this response is 19 seconds
left. It's not no examples just saying things. Has she said yet
enemy of the people the press, press freedom that's got to be
in
here taint this process that's very for reason. And I'm very
much willing to start investigating and leaning
towards that. If he has anything to do with obstructing justice
in pretty much sounds like he is trying to sway this
investigation and trying to make sure that he protects himself
instead of protecting our own country.
Oh, I'm way to go. Where she from?
Michigan, Detroit,
way to go Michigan.
Detroit. Let's,
let's hear Yeah. Well, Conyers. She's the head. Yeah. But I
mean, they're already they kept electing him. Let's listen to
what she says on Pelosi. Do you think that she's going to
support Pelosi?
Well, if Pelosi doesn't seem to be supporting her? So I would
say no.
Will you support Nancy Pelosi who's just announced she will go
for the house speakership?
You know, I'm really so much focused on helping the other
women of color. I mean, I don't know if you know, it's not just
me, and Ilhan Omar, but some of the youngest members of
Congress, beautiful colors of women are coming into the United
States Congress from a Jana. Hey, Jana, to Johanna to Deb
Holland to the beautiful Sharif, David's, we have such an
incredible class that is coming and I'm so focused on really
trying to uplift him to lean on each other to making sure that
we are able to serve the families and the residents that
believed in us back home very effectively.
Now, if I were doing anti anti Democrat Party, news reporting
the way I see it on television about Trump specifically.
Whereas he was dancing on the graves of those who didn't, who
didn't want his support, who didn't support him that never
Trumpers look what's happening with the never Pelosi ease with
the DSA they are they're not being danced on their graves
because they won worse, they're being ignored. They're being
what you said compartmentalize being shut out completely from
the party. And these are the exact people that diversity is
supposed to uplift.
And so we want to focus really on that and focus on making sure
that we have a seat at the table that we can truly be heard, not
just displayed as like, oh, look, our caucus is now diverse,
great. Now put us at a table where we can actually have a
voice where we can actually feel like we can make a difference in
a lot of the issues that we feel is a critically important for
our families back home.
In other words,
no, no, no, she does not support the Pelosi. No.
I have one more where she tries to explain what democratic
Democrats socialism is my favorite question. Yes. Yeah,
I'm sorry. This is? Yeah. Yeah.
You're a member of democratic socialists of America. Explain
what democratic socialism is? Yes.
You know, for me, right now in Detroit. This is what it means.
I have fought so heavily against corporate tax breaks, especially
because I've seen our clue schools and Detroit closed down.
I mean, close to 60 schools have already closed down in the city
of Detroit. Well, we're channeling public money,
government, you know, these are our own taxes into a hockey
stadium. The Red Hook Red Wings hockey stadium, downtown Detroit
60% of the funds that went towards that hockey stadium that
could have gone to schools, we're talking about $400 million
dollars away from schools into a an adult playground, a for
profit industry. That to me is completely unethical, immoral.
And for me, it means living in a just fair, equitable society.
And that is not fair. When you have billionaires in the
corporate welfare line, when our children are still hungry when
our when our schools are still underfunded, where I can't even
get, you know, our fire hydrants in some of our neighborhoods
fixed or I can't even understand right now. The lack of resources
that we have to deal with the increasing concentration of
poverty in many of the neighborhoods. It's it's wrong.
And and truly to me against what I what I believe, is the role of
government, which is it should be about people, not
corporations.
Oh, okay. Well, thanks for at the end, they're about people,
not corporations, and fire hydrants.
Well, I didn't learn anything about democratic socialism is
about people, not corporations. Yeah. Which is the bromide
again,
a trope. That's a trope trope.
Before we take a break, I die saw one of our friends
yesterday. Okay, a friend you introduced me to many, many,
many moons ago, in the beginning of the no agenda show. I got I
got a tweet on Friday.
Is it a female? No. Okay,
I got a tweet. I On Friday from Roger McQuinn Oh, yeah. Roger,
and he's, he was in Austin, the final show of his Sweetheart of
the Rodeo album, the 50th 50th anniversary tour.
Yeah,
they said they want you to come by. I gotta tell you when, when,
when one of the birds tweets you, I think that's cred. A
little bit of a grid man. Actually, not just Roger Chris
Hillman Marty Stewart. They were doing this. This was very
interesting show that he did, you know, very bluegrass and
everything. But he says Hi, by the way.
Hi, I'm back. When did you go to the concert?
Of course I did. We went backstage and Camilla was there.
We hung out a little bit. And the thing was Roger, is you
know, he texts me like, okay, got back backstage passes for
you. And we'll call it's like, okay, we're walking over here.
Are you there yet? So now we're getting there. I'm here. Yeah.
He's like, he's the star of the show. He's like standing by
we'll call the ready to take us backstage. And you know, he
talks a ton of talks like this. It's very soft, very soft spoken
when he speaks. Anyway, so great time. It was just fun to fund
that and see him again. He's 76 now. He looks pretty good.
And he does well, he exercises bicycles. Oh, brilliantly as a
bad man. You don't Scout what?
You don't think there's any Yeah, Botox going on?
Not really, you don't think so?
I would doubt it's possible. He's
smooth, man. His face is smooth. I look I'm I'm 54. So great.
Maybe had to grind and grind, grind. What does this face
though, does this procedure called the grind? Grind? Anyway,
he did give me one great idea which I wanted to share. Because
this may be our ticket out of here. mine for sure. But it's my
ticket out of this godforsaken gig.
Are you gonna leave me stuck? Well, maybe maybe I can work
into it. I'm not worried about it. So here's what he says.
He says they have been around the rush. You know, he doesn't
like to fly. And in fact, they were hopping in the van and
driving black back to Florida last night. Yeah, their van, the
van. And as I say, we've been around the world for free. And
Camilla starts explain how this whole thing works is the cruise
lines. They've been on 30 cruises first class around the
world. And here's how they do it. They sell a Roger McGuane
lecture 45 minutes to lectures during the during the whole
cruise. And then you get all your food and drink and
everything for free. I'm like this is great. It's how you
could do this so easy and like that. But yeah, you're Roger
McGraw. When you tell a story. You pick up the guitar and you
play Tambourine Man says now, just get a PowerPoint and you
just tell stories about the music videos, play some music
videos. And you know, Tina's gone. Yeah, I hope you put that
presentation together. Like this is a great idea. You could do it
and he says that my the audience is just about cruise taken age
right now. Yeah,
I think so.
I think this is an exciting prospect.
I think you should go for it.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in
the morning news, John C. or the C stands for centenary Devorah.

Mike Riley who brought us the artwork for episode 1084 complex
instrument the title of that this was the Joe Rogan alien
artwork with Adam curry, inventor of the podcast and Bob
C. Doyle, some tech guy, which got big laughs people like this
art
is very funny. Yeah, it's one of the funnier pieces that we've
done recently with
Tina was Tina was flying back from Chicago and she's Hi. I
listened to show I really laughed when you played the Bob
C Doyle's Yeah, yeah. And what do you think of the history of
podcasts? He says, No, I fell asleep right after that.
Somebody somebody trimmed it and put it on SoundCloud. Oh, they
did? Yeah. Oh, I haven't seen that was some original art says
the history of podcasting by Adam curry. Cool. Yeah. So be on
the lookout. All right. We have a few people with including us

Coincidence? I think not the media deconstruction you to have
done is completely changed the way I view media and world
events. The no agenda shows my only source for news as I ditch
cable.
Yeah, I hear a lot of people say source oops, a
lot of people say that.
Sorry, thanks for yes, you
hear a lot of people say that
they ditched cable. No, they say that they use no agenda as the
primary resource that Allah and I'll say that in I think in
general, and you know, we're still obviously certainly in in
this time since we deconstruct media we're very beholden to the
US media towards a lot of Trump Trump Trump, but if I open the
European newspapers is a lot of Trump Trump Trump today as well.

Yes, please do not confuse professionalism with

This is something I always wondered about John, but I've
never heard in the many years that I've been following him.
John, do you use the keyboard layout that your uncle created
or get any royalty checks for those that choose to use it as
their primary keyboard some of the DVORAK Keyboard of your
uncle to relative is named Barack. Yeah.
Okay, so was the classical composer, I
guess. Yeah. And I have a hand that goes over an octave.
No, I don't
I find the problem is it's inconvenient if you go from
machine to machine to machine and you want to use somebody
else's machine you get locked in I

anyone use Devora keyboard series? Yeah, yeah there are

I would suggest
you go over to your wife and suffer propagate the formula.
Our formula is this. We go out we hit people in the mouth
I'd like to start this part off with a little quick little side,
sideways clip. This is the kind of thing I think would have
gotten a lot more attention if we didn't have Trump as
president and there was a slower news day and people weren't
shooting each other in the state of California wasn't on fire. As
as it is every year. Yes to getting by
the way, the last time Malibu burned down was 93 I remembered
not that much. This is new.
Chinese robot anchor Ah yes.
I think I might be in trouble. China has developed a virtual
anchor to deliver the news watch this.
Hello, everyone. Jimin English artificial intelligence anchor
this is my very first day As in wonders agency, my voice and
appearance are modeled on Jang Zhao, a real anchor with sin WA,
the development of the media industry calls for continuous
innovation and deep integration with the International advanced
technologies.
So that was exciting. What do you
what do you think sort of absence of personality has
absolutely no charisma, and they didn't even pronounce seawater
correctly for the views. But my point the point is that they can
work tirelessly, 24 hours a day, no difficult contract
negotiations to go through as well vacation, no vacations,
but how would they do with
humor riffle breaking? Because it would have to be a single
anchor two of them together wouldn't be able to interact and
they're basically repeating what's being texted in someone's
writing in the text.
Well, you had to go into Fox Business News to get a clip of
this. I find this to be stupid. That's Varney is on Fox
Business, isn't it?
No, it's not true that I had to go I had another clip of I just
liked this one better.
This is a stupid this is the stupidest thing I've seen. Why
is this a great story?
I think this is the future. This is a very popular robot woman in
Japan. I can't remember her name, but
I thought it was Korea. I thought it was Korea. I thought
it was Japan could be could be yes. She's just
a virtual character. And she sounds very believable. And she
looks believable. And they have it. And I you know, these guys,
everyone keeps doesn't want to admit to this and saying, you
know, these news readers in particular
are very expensive readers. Yes. Yeah. No, i i The irony of some
of
these guys get millions of dollars a year most of them.
Yeah, most of them. And if you get some of those just to have
some schlubs writing the copies they're not right in there. All
right. Well,
let's just step back for a second. Let's just step back for
one second. Because there's a couple things going on here. I
also had a clip except I only had the clip of this stupid
thing talking Hold on. Did I even pull the clip of it? Maybe
I didn't. Yeah. Let me just hear my click may be the same.
Hello, everyone. Jimin English artificial intelligence anchor.
This is my very first day in zing wonders agency. Okay.
So this is being touted as AI and AI newsreader. No, it's just
a CGI. This is as you point out in Japan or Korea wherever it
is, there's a very believable looking CGI representation of a
female presenter on television. This is not a i This is nothing.
This is like a cartoon. It's a better version of our coasts.
Testing is a being touted as an as an AI newsreader. But I
think it's being touted as a AI.
But I think the I think you're right that they want this to be
the future. And the irony is, is that all these talking heads who
just read a script? I don't think that
I will never lose my money.
And current state? No,
stop right there. Do you remember the era of the overpaid
disc jockey during the morning commute hours that used to be
like in the 60s and 70s? They make in the 60s and 70s? They'd
make $750,000, which is equivalent about $7 million
today. Today's money? Yep.
Some 80s and 90s. We're still making that kind of money. Sure.
Yeah. Well, yes. Once you're open to them. Well, that went
away when the internet came in. I think it went away before
that. No. No, up until 2000. Certainly in in p one markets.
I'm talking some radio talk here with you. A morning show guys.
We're making a million bucks, Adam Carolla. That's why he
could go start a podcast because he's making millions doing the
afternoons on net kiss of MNLA. And that was not that long ago.
So okay, but it certainly it certainly became a lot worse.
Just because of you know, more ways to get your top 40 music
and more ways to be entertained. This is this is the problem with
everything. So all these prices have gone down dramatically
across the board. On all cabling your Al Sharpton is probably the
last guy to make a lot of money. But yeah, the irony is not lost
on me. But eventually, I guess, people want some humanity. I
don't I don't think this will ever work. I really I just don't
see it. And I think more importantly, people want to hear
you mess up. Something I learned very early on. I was obsessed in
mind when I was 19. Just start on TV. I wanted to get the I
want to do it exactly right. We weren't using prompters. I've
memorized my lines. In my mind, the first couple of years I was
doing television, I would memorize what I was going to
say. And I noticed that if I flubbed and if I made a joke out
of it. or somehow fixed it and wasn't to embarrass people like
that more than they worried about a flub, they didn't care.
So you can have to build that into your AI to make it human
but AI people want humanity This is not I do not write it down in
the book. I don't think this is going to this is not the future.
Is not the future. A lot of things are the few robot
side on this one. You take
the robot side what is in our future is this story say
that an Amazon Echo may help prove who killed two women in
Farmington, New Hampshire. The victims were found murdered in a
home on Middleborough road back in 2017. Police arrested Timothy
Verrill for the crimes. Investigators believe that the
entire attack was recorded on the victim's Amazon echo in the
kitchen. A judge has now ordered Amazon to provide any audio
recordings from the speaker Verrill has pleaded not guilty
in the case.
Well, this will be very interesting to see if this thing
recorded anything because it's only supposed to record after a
wake word is issued. And so there's probable cause for some
reason, looks like the judge is just not technically savvy.
Maybe that's you got convinced easily that there's probable
cause that there's a recording of these murders. I mean,
doesn't seem probable. But if there is recording, then that
then we have some issues.
Well, what would you do your Amazon and the legal team? Yes.
Hello. depends a lot what how this was presented with the
request was was it a subpoena? Was it just a request that
judicial requests what was it and what would you as the legal
team, you're the legal Gower there. What are you going to
say? Because you know, that Jeff Bezos that if this if they are
recording everything you do, they don't want that out.
The Stafford County Superior Court Presiding Justice Stephen
M. Haoran, compelled Amazon to disclose not only the audio
files, but any associated data such as what phones were paired
to the smart speaker that may be connected to the January 2017
murder of Christine Sullivan and Jenna Pellegrini. So the judge
ordered any any and all recordings and L data from this
talking tube.
Now how you going to deal with that? Lawyer? How am I?
What I'm Amazon's lawyer. Yeah. If the judge compels me just
give it up. Why not?
Because it's the worst publicity you can get. That means this
thing is listening to everything you do it but it's got I don't
think it is microphone. No, I don't think so either as a
microphone, because it's too much. Why save all the stupid
data. But it's got a microphone array that can pretty much pick
up anything in a cup within a couple of rooms.
Good. It's good at that. But I just don't know, if there's
recordings of that that would then there's definitely a
problem.
What's the trigger word for it? Alexa? Yeah, you can set Alexa
or echo. Alexa or echo? Like it's either one of those. I say
Alexa? No,
no, it has. I think everyone hasn't programmed for Alexa. You
can only do Alexa or echo as far as I'm or Amazon. You can call
it Amazon. Sure.
What happened to yours? You had one?
What happened? Well, I had the one that I built, and you got
very annoyed by it. Because it was terrible.
It was slow. You're the one that got annoyed by it. Not me.
Oh, okay. Sure.
No, you said it was too slow. It was taken too long to do what it
had to do and all the rest of but did you just take the other
stuff and just toss it? No, I
still use it. I use it at home. I use it for take notes and
lists and its genre, the new one, the new the Mycroft nycrr f
t, which is open source. And it's not. It's slow. That's the
problem. It's slow. Because, you know, it's it doesn't have the
resources of Amazon behind it. It's, you know, it's running on
a Raspberry Pi. So it doesn't shoot out to the cloud and get
processed by a million cycles per millisecond. So it takes a
little bit longer for it to give an answer. But still the number
the three things you use it for turn the lights on, turn the
lights off, add something to the shopping list, and how old is
somebody? And that's all we use it for.
All right, well, sounds like something you're gonna use it
for. I have a couple of clips from the KQED or KQED the PBS
NewsHour they have Shields and Brooks.
Is this more political stuff about America?
Well, not all of it. Okay,
because I'm freely tired of these just assholes the whole
time. It's completely debilitating. And it's it always
winds up with us saying these guys are idiots. Hey, 1085
episodes. We've had a good run. John.
will die. You're planning your tour on Bharti.
I'm already on the on the Pacific Princess on the Lido
Deck.
You will probably run into Lee You know who does a lot of
those?
Oh, okay. Oh, maybe this is not such a great idea then.
Anyway. So I'm watching Shields and Brooks and yeah, it's a
little political because these guys are both nuts. Right? Yes.
But there's some oddities in here. I got one. I want to know
if you can play this clip this Shields and Brooks weird intro.
You may
remember there was an election earlier this week. But
yesterday, Lisa Dejardin, our political team did a wonderful
breakdown. Looking at the new Congress, you call it a
generational change?
Okay, what was so weird about it? Well,
there's two weird things. One that was an Ogg Vorbis clip that
you played? Yes,
I know. I can eat that. Oh, good.
We're open source found.
I found a cognitive cognitive dissonance structure that
bothers me because it doesn't make sense. And I can't I know
how to resolve it. But
she says
last Tuesday, there were as you know, there was an election. But
Lisa DGR. Dan talked about the election with a report on the
newcomers the use of the word but
let me listen. Let me listen again.
You may remember there was an election earlier this week. But
yesterday, Lisa Dejardin our political team did a wonderful
breakdown. Looking at the new Congress, you call it a
generational change?
Could that also just be a word she inserted just to get her
because she was laughing? I think she ad libbed. And then
she want to get back to the prompter. She's because she here
ago, but I think it was just it wasn't in the script. In my
mind,
so she could have used and the chasis what she should have used
but
she's she's she's not even as good as that AI from China. Now,
that's
what you want AI then you have Shields and Brooks is one of
those. These are all short is 19 seconds, 10 seconds.
This is Brooks
saying that he's most alarmed by an edge like why would anybody
be alarmed by what he just bought to say,
and Brooks, who's the Democrat who's the Brooks is the guy
supposed to be a Republican, but he's a Democrat. And shields is
like the progressive Democrat who's supposed to be a Democrat
and most alarmed by was
the shields show this shields not Brooks, okay. And he's
alarmed by everything.
Well, he's left he's crazy left us most
alarmed by was the President's announcement that it was a great
victory for Republicans. The Republicans lost more seats than
they did under Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, both of whom
accepted the fact that the party had suffered a shellacking. And
I was particularly struck. He
never mentions Obama, of course, who was shellacked. But he's he
was just alarmed by this. And we have to go back and remember
that Trump was kind of raised by Norman Vincent Peale, the
positive power of positive power,
positive positivity.
Why is this a bad thing? You know, I don't I'm not quite
getting that fact that they hate him for being positive. All
right. Here's another one. This is the irony statement. And I
want you to listen to this and tell me exactly where is the
irony that is claimed?
And I think I think the the victory, David died no disagree
on this. I think it was enormous personal victory and political
victory for Nancy Pelosi. I really do. I mean, she she was
the one who passed health care in 2009. almost single handedly.
The party paid for it. In 2010. And ironically, in 2018, it was
the issue.
Yeah, I don't know where the irony come. Where's the irony?
Not irony. It's there's no iros in
the word ironically. No, no, there's annoying by the way that
people do these sorts of things. Well, Ionis
very misunderstood as a term. I think I used it correctly.
Earlier, when I said the irony of celebrating Armistice Day and
talking about war. And that's a very good example. That's irony.
And I thought, but I had to think about it. Because irony is
just thrown around. It's so ironic, isn't it? Which is used
for surprising disappointing. It's used for many things, but
irony.
Yes, it seems to be just kind of a word to use for no good
reason. And then the last one, I'm not gonna play that. There's
more. But I'm gonna play this was another this little longer.
But this is Brooks this time it is Brooks, who, if you remember
all the, during the run up to the 2016 election. He would be
the guy and I had tons of these clips. He'd say, Oh, well,
Trump's got a 25% base nose every when he gets into the
general election or the next level, he can't get more than
25% no path, no path. Nope. And then he can't get more than 35%
This is the limit. You can't get 30 Well, I'm not worried about
him winning the presidency because he can't get more than
40%. He's always got these like, these percent things in his
brain that is the boys got a new one. Okay,
let's try. So both of you have noticed that the demographically
there were huge shifts with this new Congress salutely. But they
were largely in one party and not the other. That is that's a
fair assessment. David, what do you make of that looking forward
at our biggest and strongest two parties, one path is clearly
moving towards more representation of the general
public and one not so much.
Well, a couple of things. First, Donald Trump seems to have
walled him in walled himself in with 45% of the electorate. And
so that he's built some pretty strong barriers, it's hard to
see people leaving and coming in a second, it should be said that
for all there was a blue wave or a huge surge in turnout for the
Democrats. There's also a huge surge in turnout from
Republicans. And to me, that is basically the white working
class saying we're still hurting. You know, some of it
may have to do with Kavanaugh hearings and things like that.
But life in a rural areas is still marked by huge numbers of
men outside labor force. You've got jobs that are part time in
the gig economy, you've still got a lot of economic strain and
those people just came out because they're still hurting.
Now, can this party get outside that? 45%? I don't think so.
Now, that proclamation. Okay,
so the 45% He's just pulling that and what what's the what's
the point here is just pulling that out of thin air.
That means is limited is basic theory for the last two years.
Oh, is that you can't win because he only has 45%? And in
this case, well, okay. All right. Now let please allow me
to present you some enhanced clips about politics in America.
Because you know, you're playing intellectuals who are saying
nothing, which is humorous to us. But no one that I know
watches Brooks and shields anymore to view. I think these
guys have become completely irrelevant as charged. I think
these guys are just Dave talked themselves out of relevance. And
the people that are being believed as the true bastions of
of honesty and truth are late night talk show guys. Really, I
would say Bill Maher, but how about Seth Meyers? Let's have a
look at Seth Meyers as he takes a closer look at the Democrats
taking control of
the House Democrats closing message was primarily about
health care. Trump, on the other hand, tried to scare people with
racist conspiracy theories about the migrant caravan.
What was the conspiracy theory about the migrant caravan? Did
he have a conspiracy theory? Or did he say it's an invasion?
That bar was not quite a conspiracy theory being a
theorist myself, but okay, let you slide
headed toward the southern border. Trump's advisors pleaded
with him to talk about something else like the economy and Trump
tried, but admitted he found the subject boring,
and what job numbers we had today. Did you hear? Did you
hear that we'll go into that they all say speak about the
economy speak about the economy. Well, we have the greatest
economy in the history of our country. But sometimes it's not
as exciting to talk about the economy, right?
That's talking about the economy.
He didn't say it was boring either. Seth Meyers just said he
thought it was boring. So he plays this whipsaw clip Anyway,
did you hear well, if not too bad, because I'm not gonna tell
you.
How. I'm sorry, I'm missing that humor.
That's the President saying the economy is boring. Dude, the
economy is your number one job.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you know, the economy is not
your number one job at all. Check false. uphold and defend
the Constitution. Shut up. Seth Meyers. All right. Let's go to
MSNBC. That's where we found Michael Moore with. What's our
buddy? Not Matthews Matthews who was on MSNBC. Chris man. It was
a stop the hammering guy.
Oh, oh, Donald. Larry. Larry. Oh,
don't worry. All right. Let's listen to Mike Gomore.
Absolutely. You're so right to say that. And you're right.
Imagine if we hadn't won on Tuesday night. First of all, I
think there were so many people anticipating that possibility.
After what happened in 2016. I heard that pharmaceutical
companies were actually developing an antidepressant
just for Democrats, a democratic antidepressant
that actually brings up the point where was all the
revolting and the demonstrating and the rioting and I think
everything went pretty peacefully, didn't it? The
midterm elections there was no there's no fractious, there was
nothing going on. Now there's that thing you went to it there
was because that was after the election, there's no writing
anywhere it was it was all calm. Okay, so it seems good. But yet
the Democrats and everyone on the left had to have
antidepressants and you know, take drugs were freaking
out. Fortunately they don't they don't need that. Now they can go
back to the lattes and cappuccinos. Oh, yeah,
exactly. Go back to your lattes and cappuccinos. He's actually
saying it right for one
for their medicine, medicinal purposes. But seriously, though,
I'll be here all week. This is
so critical. What's going on the Justice Department? Because what
you have now, we already had a constitutional crisis with
Trump's behavior prior to the election. We know that,
yeah, no, just he doesn't know what it is. But he's gonna is
gonna, there's only one way he can go. We've already had
constitutional crisis, we're all going to die. So what do you do
when you're already at peak constitutional crisis
with Trump's behavior prior to the election, we now have a
constitutional crisis within the constitutional crisis.
We have a constitutional crisis within the constitutional
crisis, it could not be any worse national
crisis within the constitutional crisis, we now have a state of
emergency within the state of emergency
Oh, my God, grab my ar 15.
This is God she ever explained what he's talking about. I think
you try.
Yes, 30 seconds. So give it a shot.
Very dangerous. We live in a country now where an American
can go into a bar and kill 12 People can go into a synagogue
and killed 11 People can go into a Kroger looking for black
people and kill Black people. This we are in a very, very
dangerous situation. All of us have to be up and active. We
have to be on guard. And, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, if you're
recovering tonight and watching this series, I would do anything
for you. I would I would literally donate a rib for you.
Although my ribs might not be. It might take up your whole
body. But I'm just saying
he's really on a roll. I mean, the jokes are just one after
another,
that we've got a lot of things in front of us here a lot on our
plate warrants. But the people are going to be heard. And
they're not going away just because they won on Tuesday
night.
All right. So what he said was nothing, absolutely nothing. But
yet they keep
it the end, well, you can keep going. But at the end, he says,
We got to keep going. It's for 2020. We are going to be heard
even though we won. That's what he says to people are going to
be heard even though we won is that. I mean, you'd say that
would be the this is again, this is cognitive cuts. Listen to the
end, because what is it? What does it mean? You wonder, but
you're used to your, but you get the trophy, let's dissect it.
We've got a lot of things in front of us here a lot on our
plate warrants. But the people are going to be heard, and
they're not going away just because they won
on Tuesday night.
They're not going away just because they want. Yeah, I
understand your confusion. But it gets better in the civics
lesson. If there was
a way to do the map, where we actually built the map and
showed by population. How large this area of the country is or
this or that, by population, you would see the bluest of blue.
You need sunglasses, if you so much blue on the screen on the
map. Now you need to blue blocker glasses if we actually
showed the map by the size of its population, not the size of
how many acres? Real estate has to he
believes that the Senate somehow is determined by the acres,
acres they have.
So so this was an election. This is you know, and people are
well, you know, they still have the Senate. Yes, they have the
Senate. But that's because that's through that's not a
democratic election. Oh, it's not a one person one vote?
No, because we're also not a democracy. You do. We're a
constitutional republic, not
true democracy, no, doesn't mean that Delaware gets the same
number of votes in the Senate as California with 40 million
people live there. If it was a true democracy, the Senate would
be proportional to the actual numbers of the country. So the
houses
for
the open, he just he just skips over that he feels the Senate
should be the same as the house. You see,
they take the Senate throw them away. That's what the way to
solve this is just dissolved the Senate to
fix that we have to get rid of the Electoral College. We need
to have preferential voting systems where you vote your
first choice, your secondary, so we'll get a more I've
never heard of this the preferential voting system where
you get to do well, if this guy is not this guy, I want it to be
this lady's implemented that years ago. You have to do a one,
two and three. You got is that a good system?
Well, you ended up with for example, Dianne Feinstein, a
Democrat running against the Democrat. Right, right. Right,
right. And when
Well, we'll be hearing more from Mr. Michael Moore. But the the
clear series of clips I really want to get to
we don't want the
this is the you don't want a democracy, pure democracy
because it always results in a majority rule. Mob mob rules.
Yeah, it's very bad. Very that's why the Republic works so well,
by the way at the Senate at Delaware.
I find that actually that's kind of treasonous in a way. You can
say whatever you want, but to keep saying that it's we're not
a democracy. Well, no, we're not. But to make it sound like
it's such a stupid idea has worked pretty well.
And then all this this is the same group of people like the
woman who's now the congresswoman from Michigan or a
congressional representative, which is the way they like to
sit from Michigan standing up and say, Have you ever read the
Constitution again, getting thrown out of a meeting? Group
she was told you read the Constitution, you understand why
they doing it this way? You've read the Constitution if you
raise those two and two,
have you read the Constitution? Michael Moore, that would be
that would be the question. I very much enjoyed and I as I
have been doing for the past few weeks, the Bill Maher show this
weekend, Friday. Did you see it?
No, I don't even bother anymore, because you're on that. Very
good. Very good. So this was a rare occasion. When you have two
comedians, Bill Maher and then the special guests that the
panel didn't get the same treatment as Barbra Streisand
with their own little set and everything now, just sit at the
at the at the table next to Bill. Sarah Silverman. So here
we have two comedians. And when two comedians when it doesn't
work, and they're both trying to be funny, and what happens is
they are bombing consistently, because they're not the other
not on the same wavelength. I think that he was on her show it
because he meant and I don't think he needs clips, but he
mentioned it somewhere. And he had such a great time. But I
think that somehow they they shot their wad together and you
know what I mean, right, then it just doesn't work. It's like,
they're trying to be funny, and neither of them is funny. And
it's cringe worthy, which means it's perfect for the no agenda
show.
Congratulations. You got your walk. Your walk your star on the
Walk of Fame. Welcome. I have one. That's right. Yes to Gary
Busey. Oh, you're getting not the star actually, Gary.
I think what happened here is she said, I got a joke about my
Hollywood star start off with that. I don't think she was
ready for him to crack the Gary Busey joke, which I'm sure he
does all the time. When he talks about his star. That I think is
where it went wrong.
In a time bill. We're anti semitic crime is that 57% Since
this douchebag has taken office
must be fucking Hitler. It is not
lost on me that I am very lucky that I get a star and I don't
have to sew it on my clothes.
And the crowd turns Oh, no.
gallows humor or just like it's funny because it's true humor.
I think it's they love Sarah Silverman humor. Oh, thanks.
Yeah,
there's two Jews who are disagreeing over the joke. He
did not like that joke. He did not think it was funny. And you
know, it just kind of went downhill from there. One good
thing though,
I must say about Trump is I never thought I'd even say those
words. But he has sort of broken down certain norms that we lived
with for a long time. That didn't really make sense like
extramarital affairs. I mean, I was arguing that in the Clinton
days, it doesn't really matter that's private. It doesn't if I
remember they used to say, if he cheats on his wife, is he going
to cheat on the country? No, it doesn't make any sense. You
could cheat on your wife all day long and still be a good
president. We've had many who did.
So we didn't care. And it was good because it's just as
private yet. He had stormy Daniels on two weeks ago for an
entire interview with the beginning and said she was she
had done a great service to the country. So that's a little
stupid. But this one, this next clip works very well for me.
This, again, solidifies that there is an anger brewing
predominantly, I think pretty much only among the left. And
maybe it's only people who are a member of a leftist party. And
the there is so much anger and so many things have been brewing
up that people start to cuss a lot everywhere on television.
And you know, and I think maybe was the last show of the show
before. When you say certain words when you swear It's not
just a word that comes out because it's a release of energy
of frustration can be a number of things. But you know it's a
physical thing it actually you've got serotonin shooting
around melatonin. God knows what's flying in your head when
you do that your pupils dilate your pores open up. But now
listen to this.
Another one language. Beto said I love the fuck out of you guys
at his rally years ago that would have been a big deal
because he said fuck now nobody gives a fuck.
And I like I like when people use fucking a positive limb.
That's how my day always grew up with my dad says fuck every
other word, but he's a joyful guy. I'm such a fucking lucky
guy. You know? Like, he's, it's joyful. And I think that's nice.
I don't like when Trump says stuff like stupid and loser and
stuff like that to me. That's, you know, I'm not the word
police. You can say it, but it just says so much about himself
tonight. We all know he's really kind of at this Arrested
Development at about eight years old. Yeah, and I would have
great compassion for him if if he wasn't hurting people's
lives. But those are words that children say before they learned
that those that they're not nice words, you know, you're a loser.
You're stupid. That's a bad karma.
What about shit? Okay, you're
I do have a theory of flux. Or you would say shit. Oh, you did?
I don't know. i Everything goes out the window. I'm sitting
here, but I think that sounds silly. But we all of course on
this show on on where I'm on two, we can say shit, fuck Khan
twat. But I mean,
what is wrong with these people? We're now a minute and a half
into this, but only those
it makes it really hard. You have to figure it. But the rest
of the country on on television we just and everything we accept
that the word shit is obscene. That it's a swear. And it just
means poop. It just means crap. There's no reason it should be
considered obscene or swear at all. But we don't question
things that are just the way they are. And I think that it's
an example of how it's so hard to have any progress because we
don't question anything. Nobody says Why is shit bleeped on TV?
It just means poop.
See that they're totally missing the entire point of this.
Because it's an interesting topic. I think it's interesting
how language is changing and how were you how it was swear words
are being used more and more, but all they can do as well. It
means like good poop. Seriously, it's cringe worthy last one.
But that was a pretty amazing thing to get thrown out of the
press room and also to have a prick
wasn't thrown out of the press room.
Who's talking about Jim Acosta? He was run out of the he was
denied reentry
as his hard pass whatever that means. His hard pass was
confiscated so it wasn't thrown out.
But that was a pretty amazing thing to get thrown out of the
press room and also to have a press secretary, Sarah Huckabee
Sanders present a
you said Saturday? I did. Yeah,
I meant succubus.
What sucky bus? Oh, it's
a Greek god or something. So it's
dumb. Another another dumb joke.
I didn't mean that if they were both losing it But see, he knows
that it sucks to submit a doctored tape like
now wait a minute. Is this as he really claiming that that the
video that went around that that was edited, doctored and that
there was no physical contact? Is that what he's really saying?
That's a meme. It's good. info where exactly
it came from. Infowars that's they get their news from
Infowars that's the mean yes force
of an authoritarian government. You know, I mean, it's he it's
not even dog whistles anymore. It's full on. Racist boy Yes,
you are. Right. It's not subtle. He's doing it right in front of
her fucking face. There
has to be bad words. I mean, you've got a president who shit
and we've become accustomed to that so we're there for that
so that's it that's that's what's happening to the people
used to be funny
yeah, it's problem.
No, it's a huge they're obsessed and they're weird they're very
obsessed yeah
let's see what else do we have? Oh, yes, I did want to mention
this before we take another break. So one gave me and it was
a blog was as a blog post may say. It was a but anyway, it was
a an alternative theory on the plastic bands. that we are
seeing straws, utensils. Cups. What else do we have? That's
banned plastic wise?
Mostly bags and straws. Yeah.
This is Oh, this is from the organic prepper.com. If that'll
tell you anything, and it goes through a whole list of
countries who have in states who have banned plastic bags, and
there's a lot it's quite, it's shared also the plastic water
bottle plastic water bottle. Yes. So we know about the
dangers of plastic. But the question is, and this is what
they're trying to answer is why is there such a push to ban
plastic now I would say it's like an agenda 21 thing because
now we're getting plastic. I mean, what we're being told is
plastic is seeping into us. We're pooping plastic plastics
everywhere. Plastic is bad. I mean, we've had plastic in our
lives since the graduate. So you know, the plastic stuff around.
I don't think we're dying from plastic, I don't really believe
that the all the turtles are in jeopardy of a straw up their
nose. So these guys have a theory, they have a theory. What
is the number one use of plastic that people have on their
person? Almost at all times.
And some people have a lot
when they're naked?
No. No, when you're when you're in the world, not when you're
home, not when you're naked. When you're out and about doing
your business like most people do. What is the number even
people who have no job have this plastic array on credit cards?
And the thinking is, if we can get people set up enough with
plastic, and then we could get them to get rid of their credit
cards. We bring in the chip.
That's a stretch tip for me. I like it. Yeah, I think the
plastic water bottles are a little more concerning
than, well, BPA. BPA is different. But the thing this is
more about
now not for the BPA point of view. It's just from the amount
of leftover plastic you have because people don't reuse these
bottles.
Yeah, but that's not what that is not the meme. The meme is
we're killing animals. We're pooping plastic. It's not water
bottles. It's turtles fish. The big plastic floating island.
Yeah. Which is water bottles again,
I know. But I'm just saying I like this as a theory.
Yeah. Well, I understand why.
You know why I like it. Well, it's not like companies aren't
doing this. People are doing this. This the Swedish company
that did it.
Yeah. And I think there's a couple of American companies
that have done and people think is fantastic. And I did a quick
Bing search. And I they tried this in 2014 and 2009. How your
credit cards affect the environment. I'm just reading
some some headlines here plastic cards not so fantastic for the
environment making credit cards landfill friendly. Why cards? It
would retailer see green alternative to gift cards. Is it
green card? There's a lot they've tried this for several
years. I see 2009 2011 2014. Let's see if it comes back.
All right. I don't think it will.
Well, I mean, I mean, I don't think it will get any different
than what we've been witnessing. So far. It's kind of a minor
could because and subtle.
Coding approach could be, it's not going to help. I like to do
as an idea.
Besides that, I think that because of this clip, you have
to worry about plastic in the ocean. Oceans heating up, it
shouldn't melt the plastic,
and environmental news the world's oceans are warming at a
much faster rate than previously thought. Oh, that's according to
a new report in the journal Nature, which finds that oceans
have absorbed 60% More heat during the past 25 years than
previous scientific estimates. Scientists say this will result
in accelerated global warming as the heat is released into the
atmosphere, making the target of holding global temperature rise
below 1.5 degrees Celsius or 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit even more
difficult to achieve unless urgent global action is taken.
It's been interesting reading Dutch news. Once this IPCC
report came out where everyone's at all we have to stop it at 1.5
degrees. The Netherlands, certainly the political class
and the elites went all in Yep, we've got to do this. We're
shutting everything down. You know, they already have pretty
much banned gas for usage in homes for heating or for
cooking. No new homes will be built with a gas connection
that's off the table that's just done in the whole country. Why?
Because it's bad for the environment. I'm tell you the
idiots over there it's the socialist Kingdom of the
Netherlands. And then of course people will we have to do
something we got to hurry up we only have until 2030 To get this
all done. So let's lose let's use nuclear and no no no no
nuclear it just it just doesn't work. There's a huge data
telling you all the experts are saying it costs too much it
takes too long for it to eventually make any sense
financially so no we still Yes yes. 70%
of France's Yes,
I know. I know. And people just you know, and of course you
know, then we get documentaries oldest look at Chernobyl again.
Is that what you want people to you want that kind of renewable
energy. Do you want to die? Do you want to be fried? Now let's
have some wind, wind and sun.
They're gonna have to start buying energy from Germany you
watch. Maybe this whole
thing is a scheme to buy energy from Germany.
I'm going to show my mood by donating to no agenda. Imagine
all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
More than a few people have thanked for show 1085 Yep.

I don't think he's gonna go 200 Miles
right here that does like 20,000 acres in two minutes.
Yeah was a big state yes drove out misses is the air pollution
I mean you have the wind is even though it's not the worst of it.
The winds smoked up the area where you have like you can't
see the sun. The air pollution is really bad and I had to put
up the really bad I mean it's you can't see the gassy San
Francisco from here which I normally can you can barely see
the halfword can't even see Alcatraz. And it's all smoke
from the fires which is blown down this way because he's got a
reverse wind, normal wind comes off the ocean. And so I had to
get the heat filter out in my old electrostatic precipitator.
Wow. Which is a nice piece of gear to keep the house air
fresh. do that anyway, just Yeah, you
should you should definitely do that. I saw Elon Musk tweeted,

producers who supported this show episode 1085. It is of
course appreciated. It is how the system works. No
advertisements. We've talked about a lot of things on the
show today thing that topics that cannot be discussed in a
what would be deemed a brand safe environment. It doesn't
exist on this show. It's a dangerous show to produce. And
so no one would ever want to advertise. And we wouldn't be
able to do it if we if we did. If we took advertising anyway,
so we just don't do it. We've been doing it for 11 years. It
works thanks to the help from our producers. You heard our
execs and associate execs earlier these are producers who
also come in under $50. Many of them because they want to remain
anonymous, but also we have subscriptions I implore you to
go to divorce act.org/na. And please support us for our next

Stand back because today is November 11 2018. The birthday
list includes one birthday, Peter new collage says Happy
Birthday to a smokin hot wife Monica we couldn't agree more
happy birthday to everybody here at the best podcast in the
universe. No nights, no titles. No nuttin. I did want to mention
because the guy's been in the news was a guy I know quite well
in the Netherlands. And he kind of although he's been around
longer than I than I when I first met him when Anthony
Robbins really cropped up, I would say was that 90s Would
that be fair to say that that was Peak Peak?
inspirational guy peak, Anthony
Robbins was 90s. I think he had the firewalk and everything. And
I had the tapes.
Probably the early 90s. Yeah, to this guy.
And Neil and Neil Appelbaum, this his name. He started when I
first became aware of him in in the Netherlands as the Dutch
Tony Robbins. And he had the same thing. firewalk and he had
pictures of him and Tony Robbins, and he's very animated
guy. Kind of bit like, it's kind of a he's more. He's like Tony
Robbins, but also a little bit like Trump to be quite honest,
the way he sometimes talks and it's just a funny guy. And
every, every so often, he's like a media bomber. He'll pop into
the media with some outrageous thing that the whole country is
talking about. And certainly in the Calvinistic lowlands. People
eventually say, yeah, that's just that's just a meal that
he's not job. But I always liked him because I thought he could
have made very interesting points. When I was flying
helicopters, you know, he's like, Yeah, we should be able to
land right in the middle of Amsterdam, and he would just
immediate bomber and then the media just loves to go towards
him. And it became it went from showing the guy is something
that somebody had something interesting to say or different
slant to. He's a nut job. And of course, that's why I was
attracted to him. And he's been to my house for dinner. I've
been to his house, and I haven't spoken to him in a long time.
But he showed up on the international stage. This week.
Everybody was talking about him Washington Post wrote about him.
BBC did articles on everyone's talking about my guy Emile and I
think this time he really bombed the media good.
transgenderism is increasingly a part of American life. Now a man
wants to be trans age. I'm talking about a me All rattled.
And he's asking a Dutch core to legally change his age from 69
to 49.
I feel I suffer on the my age when I am really 49 Again, I
wouldn't have a baby again. I will buy a new car again. If I
have that age again. I have hope again. I'm new again. And
Derrick, the whole future is there for me again.
I liked this.
I heard about this too. I didn't take a clipping it. But yeah, I
thought it was pretty funny. I thought it was. It'd be
interesting to see how it just is like self identification.
Well, yes, I'm gonna self identify as
40 to 49 year old Yes. Or am
I so just self identify as a 30 year old? How old are you? I'm
30 what you don't look 30 today, but hey,
but 30 But But ageism is real. It's very real. And if I were
able to change my age, I'm in a weird spot, because I'm kind of
in the middle. But you take someone like Emil, who's 69 If
you can say you're 49 Again, you will get jobs that you wouldn't
get, and he doesn't look 69 To be honest, he looks you know 50
But okay, 49 alone insurance. I mean, there's a lots of things
that you know, health insurance, if you have a different age, if
you can legally change your age, and why wouldn't you be identify
with a 30 year old identifies as a woman I have a penis but
identify as a woman. Okay, well put on your driver's license. If
you can change it. You can change these biological things.
Why can't you change biological age? Yeah, I like it, I think
and of course he's behind it. Yeah, me too. What would you
identify as? 29
Okay, you look beat for 29 Are you gonna do I've traveled a
lot. I've done a lot.
We'd like to pre board our passengers who are young, but
are having trouble walking and look a little older than they
are.
You could pre board I'm in.
I do have a no agenda tip. Actually. No agenda. Tip. No, no
agenda travel tip. Okay. Yes, there is a new rule. And this
starts December 12. That American Airlines not the not
the one airline, but all airliners will allow passengers
with nut allergies to pre board so they can wipe everything
down. I'm thinking Hell yeah, I got a nut allergy. I'll show up
with a with a with a with a medical mask. With gloves. We
have to pre board I have a horrible
allergy. Say you have the allergy. You don't have to wear
the mask necessarily. I
want to be in front of all the other pre boarders I want to
want to be the guy really in front before children, small
children because
of the smoke and smoke down here. If you go to these, you
know the kind of the hippie dippie places to go shopping.
There's a bunch of people in there with these masks. So when
I saw it the first time I'm it's not as bad. I don't know, maybe
it's bad for some people have asthma. But when you see it, and
these masks do don't do half the job, they can't really do much
because smoke particles are too miniscule. But you see, first
time I saw that, that there was some sort of an outbreak of
Ebola or Berkeley? Yes. Yeah.
Yeah. Did you see like Did you see the the new Planned
Parenthood ad? No.
I do you and I were talking about this yesterday. And you
really have to see it if you maybe it's just being it and it
because it's not about the audio. You can keep the audio
off. But it's a it's a 32nd one. I think it's actually the
longest but 35 seconds for some reason. And it shows a close up
of the most beautiful, beautiful infant. Oh, I
saw this ad Yes, I did see it.
So I'm looking at it. Now you see this beautiful kid, she
deserves to be loved. And then that's just going to do it
again. You're looking right into her eyes and the cutest smile
ever. And you know, you just you're in love with this kid and
then the next title card comes up. She deserves to be wanted.
And then it goes black and the kid comes up again and just the
the eyes are on you I'm in love with this kid. And then a cuddle
card comes up. She deserves to be a choice. Yeah. And then
there's the hashtag stand with pee pee for stand with Planned
Parenthood. And, you know, Tim and I were talk and this is the
action fun by the way, this is not this is not the the out for
this the for the 501 C four it's the lobbying organization. And
and Tina were looking at this and saying, you know, I think
depending on where you are in your mind, or I don't know if
it's necessarily comes down to pro choice waist or pro life? I
think that's a little too strict. You know, I think
there's middle ground in this, but you look at it. And I looked
at this ad and went, Oh my God, these people are killing babies
like that, you know, that was just my initial instinct. And
I'm not I'm not a pro lifer, necessarily. I think choice
approach. Choice is important. But that was my initial response
yet
for I never thought that, by the way, seeing the ad, but
apparently some people I never put you in that group saw the ad
differently.
Yes. Well, then they blew the ad. Well, no, I was gonna get to
this. The point I was going to get to was, Who is this ad for?
That's kind of how I dissected it, because the baby is a white
baby.
I believe the number one client of Planned Parenthood is black
or brown. I may be wrong, but I think those are the statistics.
No, no. I mean, so be maybe a miss. Well, they made a choice.
They chose a very, very white blue eyed baby and saying this
baby should be a choice. I mean, I don't know. I think they're
pandering towards. I know, it confused the hell out of me
because yes, okay.
Well, let's let's also mention that right now the Democrats as
they did before Trump's election, if you remember when
we did the show, like I'd say three years ago, we talked about
this because we were kind of taken by it. It was the move was
to get all women to hate Republicans. Yeah. And we had a
number of thematic shows that showed evidence of this which
was of hate hate on the Republicans so that all women
for I would for the female perspective, all women would
should should vote Democrat because the Republicans are evil
women haters. And this was a thing maybe they're cranking
that idea up again. They could try to get the white woman to
vote
Democrat I don't I don't know what to me. It was very
confusing. I think if you were white woman that's me identifies
a 49 year old white woman. So I'm trying this I'm going for no
I was I thought that this is airing on TV though isn't it
didn't get banned did it?
That that I know of no. I just thought it just didn't work. And
what they're saying
but there's the way the ad reads to me is you have a choice. This
this baby. You can have this baby when you're ready for this
baby. And you don't need to have this baby when it's not
convenient for your life or whenever you're ready to Love A
Child of your own that I think is the intent of the ad.
I don't know it doesn't really work.
I don't know it works for me but dodge dodge as you bring it up
probably doesn't work. I'm gonna go along with the you know if
you can't if everybody does it, this is the problem with doing
this symbolic kind of like, fill in the blank type of ad. Yeah.
It's just they're always like this. It's like well, you fill
in the blank. It filled it in wrong.
Yeah. Whereas Ice Cube. He makes it very, very clear.
Is the war lord, bring the dog went through his crazy like
Bellevue. What they tell you, the boy alone, like home alone.
fucka. Scotland ball arrest the president arrested president's
threat Russian intelligence are reducing the stakes in the
matrix arrest. Arrest. Arrest. Arrest of the president. Arrest
of President arrest. Have you got that? Yeah,
I think is pretty clear what he's trying to tell us.
I think that's a little more. You know,
that's, that's hard to see. I can get this this. I understand
ice. And I got it. This one I understand.
Wow. Yeah. People have so little respect for the country. Yes.
That's pretty funny. Now let's we were talking about I think we
had ongoing discussions of the Southern strategy and how the
party switched.
Ah, the big switch? Yes. I think I have a jingle for that.
You do have a jingle?
I think so. I didn't realize you you were going to bring it up.
We're going to do something here at the end. Anyway, tell me what
you're thinking about. And I'll look for the
guy to pat buchanan clip which I promised. He discusses because
he was in the Nixon White House. And he discusses the so called
Southern strategy and what it was not doing what it was doing
and who was the racist and who weren't invited. None of this
ever. A lot of this stuff has been exaggerated largely by
Democrat. Inclined into history professors and people that want
to push their agenda on this poor hapless student who doesn't
get a real clear picture of things. And I thought it's as
long it's not real long, but it's long enough that I thought
it's something you'd particularly like, because adds
to the narrative of this discussion. We
can. I was wondering if you can give us your thoughts regarding
whether President Nixon had a so called Southern strategy.
The vote clearly, we wanted to, we wanted to Nixon went into all
11 southern states in 1966. He went in a campaign against
George Wallace and against the less dramatics, and I've
described that in my book, if you read the book, The libel
against Richard Nixon is that he used racist tactics to win the
South. That is false. The good that were the Democrats Woodrow
Wilson resegregate it the federal government carried all
11 southern states, FDR put Cactus Jack Garner of Texas on
his ticket, who had imposed a poll tax, FDR put a Klansmen on
the Supreme Court. But Jimmy burns in South Carolina on the
Supreme Court, who had blocked the anti lynching law. So for
decades, the Democratic Party used the issue of race to
maintain the solidity of the Northern liberal southern
coalition. What happened was Adelaide Stevenson. estates
Wallace carried on the same stage, Adelaide Stevens entered
against Eisenhower was that because Stevenson was a tougher
guy in foreign policy than Dwight David Eisenhower, no
students would put on his ticket. John Sparkman of
Alabama, who was a signer of the Dixie manifesto, which called
for massive resistance to integration and massive
resistance to the Supreme Court decision. It's when I was a
senior in high school. So the Democrats were as we wrote in
that piece, look at column I wrote with Nixon, and for Nixon,
where I said, Nixon went south. And he said, Look, let's leave
it to the Dixiecrats to squeeze the last ounces of political
juice out of the rotting fruit of racial injustice. And Nixon
had voted for that was for the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and
1960 and 1964 6568. And it is segregated the south. And once
the South was desegregated, once that was off the table.
Naturally, the South moved toward it from its conservative
convictions, move straight into the Republican Party, but only
after he was desegregated. So I think to me that's reliable and
I'm happy to take that went on and I've taken it on in that
book. You know, there were liberals whining and
complaining. None of them whine and complain what FDR was when
all Confederate States every single time he ran all four
times.
Yeah, that's it's good clip. The problem is anyone who was
interested is just going to their eyes will glaze over. I
mean, it's it's so much easier to just say, hey, they all
swapped and the racists are now Republicans, you don't need to
say any more than that.
You know, that every time I hear one of these, we've been playing
these long clips about this for forever, and people do some
glaze over. I don't think everybody does can listen on
this show.
I don't I don't, of course, not our producers.
But the thing that got me I didn't realize because I was a
Democrat at the time and my dad was a big Hadley Stevenson
support because he was a union guy and he was a Democrat, which
is old, you know, the Archie Bunker type, which will roll
with Democrats. And he was a big fan of Adly Stevenson, even
though he's running against Eisenhower, who was I can you
not like that guy's like a more general, you know, the whole
thing. And he kept saying that the reason Stevenson couldn't
beat Eisenhower was because of he was perceived as an egghead,
which was the first time I ever heard the German and the egg
head, which is he looks like he's got one of those egg shaped
heads. Not as bad as some people but he's, you know, and then
he's bald, he's got a he's an egg, and it was very
intellectual. He was like, he had these. He was very soft
spoken, he should listen to some of his old speeches there on
YouTube. But I didn't even think about the fact that he had a
racist. Vice President pic. Ryan, if you think about it,
that's the same thing Kennedy did when he put Johnson on the
ticket. Yeah. Had to.
There's a little extra piece to this southern strategy story,
and I found that on Netflix. It's Tricky Dick and the man in
black, which is quite a story of Richard Nixon and Johnny Cash,
who performed at the wall White House and which was a big deal.
And in fact, I encourage you to watch this. Besides it being
Johnny Cash, just fantastic is great story. Apparently Nixon
put in a press release. And he said it part of His strategy
was, oh, let me get the south I need Johnny Cash, I need Johnny
Cash to perform at the White House. And so that was part of
the strategy which is never mentioned. And I, you know, I
didn't know about it either, really? And then he put in the
press release, Nixon did that the President has requested
Johnny Cash sing okie from Muskogee and welfare Cadillac.
Which I mean, talk about some dog whistle, especially welfare
Cadillac with then probably no one knows the song. But it's
about someone who's on welfare, which I think was severely
frowned upon. And there's kind of a joke songs a one day I'm
going to drive down pick up my welfare check and my Cadillac,
which is kind of a sneer at people who are on welfare.
Johnny Cash does not perform either of those songs. Instead,
he sang what is truth, which is kind of a haunting song. Pretty
much telling the President, you've got to help the youth of
America understand what is truth, you've got to get the
truth to people. And it was only this was two weeks before Kent
State for the whole country went apeshit. And I was watching some
of that footage. It seemed like it was a little worse back then,
John, I mean, yeah, we're seeing crazy stuff online. But people
are on the streets beating each other, each other's heads in
like a lot. Yeah, yeah. Is it just my see my perception? Or is
it was it more violent on the streets, then
didn't go to the store and get beat up. And when they had
these, these demonstrations, which were mostly anti war
demonstrations by kids who are going to get drafted and go to
Vietnam, and they didn't want to, because it was, anyone who
would knew anything about the war knew was kind of a hoax. Not
a hoax. It was a real war, but it was, it was the reasons for
being there were dubious. And they didn't. As John McNamara
later revealed in his autobiography, the even the
administration's Johnson administration, and then later
Nixon, but mostly the Lyndon Johnson administration, they all
knew that they shouldn't be there. And they couldn't figure
out how to get out without losing face.
They wanted a dignified ending tour, they couldn't just say,
Hey, we're an honorable, we got to claim something. We can't
just leave this
constant comment about the Asian cultures. And oh, they're
terrible, because they always say rose. So they're more
worried about saving face than they are about anything. That's
us. That's we do that all the time. When I say you are I am,
yes. You we worry about saving face by thing, as much as any
Asian culture ever has in the Vietnam War is a very good
example of that.
So the travesty of all of this and the thing I remember growing
up, certainly even the first five, six years, you know, when
it came to desegregation, to me, it was the schools you know,
it's like really, black and white kids, they couldn't go to
the same school. And now Okay, now we're all because I was
alive at this time. And now we're all you know,
desegregating black and white kids in the school. And now
we're in 2018, was 2019. And here we are, where we're trying
to segregate getting whiteness out of the school, I got a
confirmation on Humboldt University. From an anonymous
person who works there for obvious reasons. I just wanted
to let you know that I also work at Humboldt State University and
I also received the whiteness email several times about
whiteness and micro aggressions training. So I can assure you it
is not a hoax, the topic is taken very seriously at HS EU.
And at least in my experience, the average student faculty
staff member will hear conversations about whiteness on
a daily basis. It has always seemed surreal to me. I believe
that these decent people with good intentions but they have
bought into the idea of negative whiteness hook line and sinker
to the point where you can almost see the guilt on their
faces. Obviously, to keep my job I shut up and keep my head down
as much as possible, but it is getting very strange. I am a
little paranoid. So I chose to not even write you from my HS
you email address. This is very bad when teachers disagree with
what's happening in an in a place of education, and that
just shutting up and keeping their heads down and had
to write anonymous notes to the no agenda show from a different
email address.
That's how bad it is. Yeah, this isn't universally true. Yeah.
And then we got it. I know you saw this note from Rachel Adam,
John, my daughter goes to a preschool that gives color names
to classrooms. This year, she was entering the white room but
when we got an email from the administration that they no
longer thought White in appropriate color name. Given
the school's efforts at inclusion and diversity. The
room is no longer called White. They change it to a different
Color the White Room no longer which of course is the most
inclusive. Color of all. It's all colors isn't isn't white is
everything. And black is nothing. Which makes it even
more crazy Republican. Democrat. The old switcheroo the old
switcheroo
we do have a jingle for it. Okay, good. So yeah,
that's what people have been taught. And it's just getting
worse. And it's in it is people who are now just around 2324.
They're there. They're the ones that got hit first, with this
nut stuff. It's really truly as 9596 You were born around that
period. That's that these are the ones that have gotten all of
this weird.
And I think it goes before that but that we know for sure. I
think you can go back it up a little bit. Because I get the
table. I get my millennial table with the new and older
millennials and
I'm talking the Gen you know the Zoomers?
Well, the Zoomers, for sure, but I would say that some girl asked
this question about this switch between the parties to this
group and a bunch of they Oh, yeah. And it was like,
I thought you already asked the millennial table about that. No.
Oh. Well, I get a lot of people say yes, still people who are
behind on shows will say yeah, I don't know exactly where I was
taught, but that's what I was taught. Yeah. And of course, no
one can back it up with a textbook, which is always true.
No, you can't you're you taught you were taught wrong. Yeah.
Okay, um, Khashoggi or Hush, Shakti,
the United States will no longer refuel Saudi aircraft that are
conducting strike missions over Yemen. US and Saudi officials
made this announcement on Friday. Now, the Saudis say
their military coalition requested this change because
they've improved their own refueling capabilities.
Oh, yeah. Okay, that's very coincidental. So I wonder I
didn't have time to look into it to see if you know what this
means. I mean, do we are we just taken our guys who are refueling
and putting a different uniform on them or, you know, is what is
actually happening, but this was one of the big gripes people had
about our involvement with the war in Yemen. Yeah,
so that's over any gripes. Well, that
seems easy, then.
Yeah, sounds like Yeah.
That's not good. That's not gonna stop the complaining. No,
we're down away. Everyone just doesn't pull out of Yemen,
whoever how much damage do they have to be beaten up? This all
stems back from the who sees kind of kicking out our guy from
running the place who's running it into the ground? And of
course now they're getting bombed to smithereens? Yeah.
They hate the Houthis apparently, I think our
government does. There's definite hate over there. I want
to get this clip out of the way this is the idiot mosque. These
guys are tried to blow up a mosque. They blame Trump.
Meanwhile, attorneys representing three Kansas men
convicted of a 2016 plot to bomb a mosque and murder Somali
Muslim refugees are arguing Trump's hate filled rhetoric
should be taken into account and result in a more lenient
sentence. The lawyers say their clients who face life sentences
were supporters of then candidate Trump in a court
filing the lawyers write quote, the court cannot ignore the
circumstances of one of the most rhetorically mold breaking
violent, awful, hateful and contentious presidential
elections in modern history. driven in large measure by the
rhetorical china shop bull, who is now our president.
Nice one and good read.
Yeah, she nailed it. Oh, very good.
Yeah, that's about right. Alright, the story I've been
following this will be the last one for me.
The FDA is crackdown on E cigarettes could go one step
further. The Washington Post reports as soon as next week the
FDA is expected to announce a ban on the sale of most flavored
e cigarettes in stores and gas stations across the country. The
FDA has called teenage use of E cigarettes and epidemic most
vaping products are flavored and studies show teenagers are
attracted to flavors. Now the agency is spending nearly $60
million on an education campaign warning kids about the dangers
of E cigs. Though vaping e cigs may pose a less of a risk than
smoking tobacco, the FDA says nicotine and E cigs can
negatively affect a person's brain and overall health. The
Washington Post adds that the agency will also impose age
verification requirement rules for online e cigarette sales as
well. A couple
of things. The reports were very similar. I had a number of them
about this. Some reports actually start off by saying at
a time where cigarette sales are at a record low, which is not
good for the big tobacco. E cigs e cig goat go into any school
and say hey man you got an e cig people look at you like you're
like you're a moron. They it's called vaping. They're using e
cig for a very specific reason to make this seem like having
the FDA weasel in on an unclassified substance. Nicotine
is unclassified I learned is this and that's not classified
as any drug. Unless you know better which you might
well I would probably just from you because you can go to
Walgreens and buy nicotine lozenges. You can buy patches
and all these things. And they're just right over over the
counter. They can obviously is available unclassified. But
as as I've been following, this is tobacco who has a problem.
Their main cancer stick product is at an all time low and sales.
They see this thing exploding, they want to have the government
regulated and the government's doing it. And by the way, I
think a lot of kids, they have a vape the jewel would be the top
one they use, but they don't call it an e cig This is really
bugs me that the keep saying e cig Eazy E is vape they buy vape
liquid with no nicotine, you can buy it. I mean, it's very
common. There's no nicotine in it at all. The reason kids are
doing it is a it's an oral fixation. And it's an obsession
and it's cool to do. B It takes very little work to flip the
cartridge and put a little THC in there. Which is another
reason why people do it. But it's this this whole idea of the
government regulating some flavored juice.
I think it's wrong. The Killing a whole cottage industry.
And just handing it it's going to be a million dollars to get
each flavor certified. That's
the scam. Yeah.
Big, big tobacco doesn't care. They wind that's what they want.
Yeah. And so they want to take over the whole this whole
job of using leveraging the system. Yeah, to their benefit,
their corporate benefit. I just want everyone to notice that.
That's how it works. People over corporations. Yes.
Yes, AOC. I hear you. All right. I'm good. You're good. I'm good.
That will be it. Ladies and gentlemen. The next show I may
be coming to you from the lowlands, or maybe the meetup
finally. I'm trying to get the meetup part done. This is the
reason I'm going is not for the meetup, but I'm hoping to get it
organized.
But I will let everybody know as soon as I know. So maybe a meet
up in the lowlands, maybe one in the UK we'll have to see.
But you go in there for them.
