Gotta move gotta move back. Adam curry Jhansi Devorah it's
Thursday February 13 2020. This is your award winning get my
nation media assassination episode 1200 60s is no agenda
following the fortune cookie crumbs and broadcasting live
from opportunity's own 33 Here in the frontier of Austin, Texas
Capitol, the drone Star State in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where we're dead set against the
hanging of Roger Stone. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Dragwon. Buzzkill.
I can tell you all emotional over it. It's very difficult to
get they're gonna hang the guy. Yeah, exactly. No, you know what
this was? You know what this was, don't you? This was the
setup.
Yeah, I heard that theory before. Couple of times. Well,
then let me you mentioned it on the show where you haven't heard
it. The idea was that the law fair group lawyers. So what is
presented as long term civil servants working for the Justice
Department? Yeah, I know. This was impeachment lawyers who came
from the wharf lawfare group. They decided oh, here's a good
idea. Why don't we get another impeachment thing started we're
going to ask for a crazy amount of time for Roger Stone and then
we'll resign and exactly what they wanted. This will just be
added to the impeachment 2.0 case.
Well, the problem is is mind reading involved here because
the idea was to get Trump to do something about it all he didn't
tweet to get Barsoum to do something about it was
BB all he did
was tweet about and Barney never heard did barking goat because
they're gonna bring him in. He's gonna go testify and he's gonna
they're gonna say Did the President tell you to do this?
And they used to say no, John
didn't do you're confusing logic with what the M five M likes to
use in the machine. This is all over the place. Oh, bar should
resign Trump. Oh, no, this is obstruction. It has nothing to
do with with logic or with truth or facts. It's just let's just
do something. Everybody. Come on. That's to me. That seems
pretty obvious.
I'm getting sick of it.
Well, now there's that. There's that. Four we go. Oh, I finally
got the ISO. I'm the President of the United States. I have all
of the power. I just can't I can't see anything else being
used then. This
is a good one. It
is so dynamite. Good old burn sickle. What an idiot. See,
where are we at? We have to talk about Oscars, I guess. Oscars
all time all time low. Yeah. Well done. Well done.
People are particularly fond of watching their celebrities that
they go to spend money on at the movies, lecturing them about how
we should act? Well. It wasn't much of it. I mean, there was
only Brad Pitt coming out and bitching about not not having
Bolton testify. So
which I didn't see that as a huge anti Trump slam is like,
Okay, well, but
what do I think there was? What was interesting, there was the
fact that he said he only had 45 seconds. So they so they, so
they acting award. I mean, the makeup artists spent more than
45 seconds thanking people. Well, you
know, these speeches are, even though Brad Pitt denies it.
There are companies that write these speeches for people. And
they'll write some funny for you or give you a little political
message, whatever you're looking for. So I think this was, maybe
it's the Norman Lear Hollywood group who sends out some
consultants, oh, here, we got an A thought here. Maybe they're on
staff at the Oscars. Who knows. But above all, it is painfully
obvious to me that just like in politics, where we have an old
guard and I'm not being ageist, but at a certain point, you
know, it's we're in this in this transition period, where the we
live longer people are, you know, 70 is the new 50. But, you
know, a lot of the old ideas and thoughts and Ways and Means and
racism to I'm sure, kind of Styx and then we got the new people
coming in and they all they all want wokeness and they want
different things and they also communicate differently. And how
many Oscars were won by Netflix shows Hello, is this telling you
anything Hollywood? So you know, there's so deathly afraid of
having a host because all controversy yet. I think it was
the comedians who kind of made the show bearable to watch. They
paired him up and was Will Ferrell and what are the
Saturday Night Live gals that was kind of funny, but otherwise
it's just a dumb boring show with to be honest. I don't think
you know, I saw parasite is good movie is really the best is it?
I'm asking you, you're asking me. I haven't seen it. I've only
watched the beginning of it. I liked the beginning. Oh,
it's okay. But for all the hype, I heard about it once I saw it
and went, Oh, you wait until you see what happens. And then
there's something that happens in the movie like, Okay, that's
cool. That's that's a good twist. And now it's just I don't
know.
Well, I do have the one clip I got, which is not the whole
thing because it because for the 45 seconds, Joaquin God to speak
for Best Actor, the Joker, yes, he spent three minutes and 11
seconds. And it never played him off or anything he went rambling
on he started off by saying, you know, the great thing about
being in this business is that we get a platform. I never
thought that was part of the deal. But okay, he thinks he's
got a platform to go on and on and on about what he thinks is,
you know, what he thinks is important and what we need to be
hearing from him. He's an actor, he should be reading the lines.
And I don't believe anybody wrote this. For him. That's too
discombobulated. But you want to play this as a short, less than
a minute of him going on about whatever,
we go into the natural world, and we Plunder it for its
resources. We feel entitled to artificially inseminate a cow.
When she gives birth, we steal her baby, even though her cries
of anguish unmistakable. And then we take her milk that's
intended for a calf, and we put it in our coffee, and our
cereal. And I think we fear the idea of personal change. Because
we think that we have to sacrifice something to give
something up. But human beings at our best, are so inventive
and creative and ingenious. And I think that when we use love
and compassion as our guiding principles, we can create,
develop and implement systems of change that are beneficial to
all sentient beings and to the environment. We are the world.
He makes the comment he says, We think we have to sacrifice
something to give something up. Isn't that like, redundant?
Isn't that what you do? And your sacrifice? You are giving
something up? What is he talking about? And how does it what does
that got to do with putting milk in your cereal?
You should not be drinking milk Why do you drink pus from the
cow it's crazy. I've heard it all my daughter is big on that
too. Like we're not meant to drink that okay all right. Yeah,
I guess baking with It's okay though it's alright to bake with
no with milk
in my tea right now so
wow know how disgusting you are horrible person you don't care
about the earth and the world and all its creatures. This is
very bad very very bad that you're doing Yeah, yeah. Yeah,
the the Irishman that costs $190 million.
Well, what on what? Well? What? Where was it spent? Were they
drinking that much
on CGI, man. So I gotta look at Netflix's numbers. I don't know
if you discuss it with with Horowitz at all. But so they
currently they just raised another $2 billion in with a
bond which I guess would be a junk bond probably. Or junk bond
status. I think that's what all the messaging was. So their
total debt is $14 billion.
Just like a Hollywood studio.
But check this out their budget their content budget for 2020
Just take a wild guess. 10 billion $15 billion
that's outrageous. They should at least put animated
no agenda on their stupid channel. I mean, come on.
Damn it. Well, maybe you're not spending enough on it.
squandering enough resource. Yeah.
Hey, guys, this is our demo and we really needed a $10 million
to produce it properly. Whereas this is exactly what you want.
Thank you, Jennifer. The most recent one the yes great good.
Yeah, that's the 16,000 lies. I tagged the president in it if
everybody would please retweet because all we need is one
retweet from the president one one. I think this is the one
that he might that he might like or might catch his eye. It's a
video
dynamite idea? Yeah. I mean, if we say yes everybody go over he
tweets to the President.
Yeah. In fact, don't reach we just tweet it. Copy it, tweet it
again. Make sure the video shows it. Yes, tweet it again and
retweet it. Let's see if we can make it happen. I mean, it's it
would be fantastic. That would really put that show on the map
and I, as I was going through the list again, Dame Jennifer
has done some phenomenal work. We have like 15 of these things
out.
We were like dynamite we look like
a real operation.
Yeah. We were pretty good. The Illusionist?
Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's us.
Balls. Can you juggle? Don't look over here keeping those
plates spinning.
Exactly. Love the plates spinning.
All right. So they found that the event the Oscars were they
were dull and yeah. And by the way, was it with this set? We
were every year we'd kind of talked about this set looked
like a black hole to hell. It looks like this. Something's
gonna suck you in and you're gonna be gone for like a black
hole. It was. Oh, it was these movie. The black hole
was a black hole. Yes, that's true as true. I don't even
remember that much from the show. It was just blatantly
boring. I mean, even Elise came over. Yeah, she's she's a Super
film nut. You know, the kind there'll be like, Well, I don't
want him to win for Best Director because he also
directed that movie as a piece of crap. And he's, he's
homophobic. Yeah, I mean, so really deep, deep, deep into
this stuff. And even she was only there because none of these
kids have television. She won't she hasn't hung up the antenna I
gave her for direct over the air. So she just comes here.
It's like yeah, hey, I'll come over and cook like and because
she wanted to watch with which was fun, but man right after the
best movie. Oh, well, the show's not over. Oh, well. Gotta get up
early to she's gone. You know, no interest, no interest in the
show business around it. There's just none it's it I think they
should really get rid of this do something else with the airtime
and the Academy Academy, we're gonna do what is the academy,
it's just slowly going to grind down to a stop is going to kill
itself. It's not. I don't know, there is nothing good about it.
Now.
Next year, they of course could ask the creative or I Consulting
Group. I'm sure we could spice it up a bit, but even then I'm
worried about it. It's alright. So we had what else do we have?
Ah, yes. Well, we have some kind of horse race going on in the
United States for the Democratic candidate for the 2020 election
and it's it's getting really fun and hopefully you have finally
decided to unfollow the democratic operatives you play
so much trusting. Because Joe Biden has been dropped.
Me has been dropped.
All support is gone. I told you he was only necessary for the
impeachment. Because if he wasn't, if he wasn't a front
runner, then he's not really a political opponent now is now
busy.
So they needed Biden's gonna win South Carolina. Joe Biden's
not gonna win South Carolina. No way. Well, you know what, he's
given it a good old try. Yeah, this is uh, this is from a
speech he gave I think it was this morning or yesterday. We
don't feel no way he's tired. We've come too far from where we
started. And I don't believe he brought me to this farm to stop
now. So he's speaking to a crowd of a das and there were we heard
that before I don't feel no way he's tired. Too far. From where
I started from. I don't believe he brought me this far. You
cannot tell me that there is not a a mole in the organization
that is is messing with his sound. That is giving him false
information. Hey, Joe, just to tell them we're in Nevada Hey,
this is great Joe the blacks will love it Joe just do this
just recite this Joe Reno feel no way he's tired.
It's maybe it was a May was a gag, please.
That was no time for joking around.
At the very beginning, I always thought or at least I think the
two of us agreed that he wasn't really into it that much and
maybe never really wanted to run because he's kind of old and
this seems like a big hassle. Yeah, he doesn't need the money.
Yeah. Obviously. And so he said was it kind of half half sincere
about the whole thing and so he doesn't really care. But now I
think it's it's become kind of a since he's getting called out as
a loser. I think he's he may be he's got his hackles up and he
may Be will actually be sincere about this and actually run.
That's why I think he'll win South Carolina. But you're
right. I couldn't do I should divorce myself from following
these guys. Yeah, they're not helpful. They did constant theme
is Joe is gonna be the guy and Bernie's gotta go.
Yeah, well that Bernie's got to go is greed too. And there's all
kinds of crazy theories on the mainstream as well. This is my
favorite. This is my top.
We're back with Jerry Falwell, Jr. and, Jerry, we've got about
30 seconds here. Do you believe Mitt Romney should be thrown out
of the party for going against the president?
I think he's gonna leave the party. I think I've heard
speculation this week that he's positioning himself to be a vice
presidential candidate for one of the Democrats. And I think
that would be the honest thing for him to do, because he's been
more in line with their beliefs for decades than the Republican
Party. So I hope this is his move to come clean. Finally, I
think what you hear out there, I don't know if you can hear it. I
can. And so a lot of applause out there. For what you're
suggesting. Thanks so much here. So the idea is the so called
Unity ticket between Mitt Romney as vice president and John Kerry
is president.
Yeah, I put a I've posted this in the newsletter.
I know, but it's they're actually seriously discussing
it.
They both they're both deluded. Yeah.
Well, then five M is so desperate that they'll pick up
any story as long as we can not say Bernie then it's okay. I
guess. Let's just do a quick recap of an important event
here.
Breaking news now the chairman of the Iowa Democratic Party is
resigning in the wake of the disastrous caucus process, the
technical glitches and delayed results.
There it is. We totally screwed over the results. We couldn't
actually give you the results. The reason a glitch. Thank you
mainstream. I feel so much better now that I know exactly
what happened. So that's it. you resign because of a glitch. No
more questions asked. It'll never come up again. And we'll
never have the final tally world. We don't care Democratic
Party.
Who cares? It's about time they got bumped from that perch. What
else you got? Well, I think that there was one interesting thing
I actually pulled this from Rush Limbaugh I've never done before.
It was my first since this is I don't want to I don't know. I
hate to be maudlin about it. But he did have this he did find his
one little tidbit. This is the clip 17 through 24.
Oh, okay. NBC News exit polls showed last night voters between
the ages of 18 to 29 made up only is his voice higher. Sounds
higher.
It's funny that you'd say that because and I don't know why
this is a couple of things I noticed because I recorded a bit
of this this life small small part and what all the stuff I
recorded never used for one thing he his his waveforms are
not nearly even close to being as compressed as I thought they
were. Oh, interesting. It's not like a compressed to end his am
am radio generally. And it's a very uncompressed waveform. It
doesn't look anything like it classic big, big booming voices.
I
mean, like the no agenda show, which is a block of flat, black,
black block a flat Yeah.
Also, when you hear him doing it, it sounds deeper than when
you do the replay. And when he replayed re on his bed, he
replaced some of his old clips. He likes to do this. You find a
clip from 10 years ago where he predicted something, and he
likes to harp on it.
Right? Well, we have this too. Yeah, we do that. But
he anyway, he plays his old clips and they sound tinny. And
it's like what? Wait a minute, you know what it sounds like
about the reproduction of his show? That sounds tinny. It
may be? It sounds like so I've heard I heard this Reese, it
sounds like someone who has been intubated. If you haven't you
had the you get knocked out general anesthesia. Usually your
voice is up a couple of days,
or it can be his voice might be up anyway, let's
listen to the clip. I'm sorry for interrupting. And I
wanted to mention that anyway, because I'm very interested in
this kind of audio that comes out of this guy's show and it's
not like anything I expected.
NBC News exit polls showed last night voters between the ages of
18 to 29 made up only 11% of the Democratic electorate far below
the 19% of 18 to 29 year olds who voted in 2016. Now we keep
being told what to do. Kretz have all this enthusiasm, they
hate Trump. It's just about beating Trump. We gotta find
anybody could beat Trump Trump's got to go, Trump's got to go.
The Democrat Party doesn't care who they are so energized. They
hate Trump. They hate the name calling. They hate the
mudslinging. They hate the tweeting, they hate Trump, they
hate him. He can't wait to get rid of Trump. There is no such
enthusiasm.
Well, according to that poll, and by the way, who's going to
replay I mean, I don't want to be morbid about it. But let's
just say he goes into a year of treatment and just won't be able
to physically work. I'm not gonna say he's gonna die.
Because I'm not like that. I don't think that way. My mom had
lung cancer, I remained positive till the very end.
Just how long does she have it for after a diagnosis? How long
she gets going to go?
Well, the diagnosis so she was fine, of course, except for she
had a shitty cough and we all heard it. Like a death rattle.
She went to a doctor. Oh, guess what, hey, no happy way to say
that she got lung cancer. Oh, and by the way, it's a shitty
card, okay. The minute they put her on chemo, that's when the
chemo of course immediately deteriorated. Because that's
what chemo does. Then they decided to take out a lung. And
she was cancer free for a year. Then it came back and it was
just months. It was like three months. So fast. Yeah. But
there's a void, and I don't think, Shawn will Sean Hannity.
But what's his name? Mark Stein. He's
already got his own show. None
of these guys will hold the audience. None of them are in
it. This guy who has a singular talent. Yeah, and
but it does leave a hole in that time slot across the nation.
But when I date, I'm probably going to record a few more
things for it to be that way. But I've noticed a couple of
things in his in his bit because I used to always talking about
this in lieu inside baseball for people who are getting anyone
wants to be a podcaster should probably be paying attention is
that when you listen to certain guys like Jim Rome, who was a
very interesting talent that and he'll repeat stuff, kind of say
the same thing three or four or five times in a row. I never
noticed until I recorded this, some of this Limbaugh stuff and
listened to it a second time and then to start editing it. I
actually that clip is highly edited because he repeated
himself the way Rome does. A couple of times. He says
something that he's done, he stops and pauses and says it
again. Maybe adds another word in there. So he he pads the show
with this kind of repetitious approach. Oh, yeah, no, no. I'm
gonna have to listen to Hannity and see if he does the same. Oh,
my God. Hannity is unlistenable. He's, I cannot listen. I can't
watch them on TV. I can't leave. You know, I will actually
analyze it so we can come back and I can tell you why. But it's
something about just the his presentation. It's also a
smugness, I think he has the Uber smug of the right.
Yes, we got that old style. Yeah, it's like shut up. He's
pretty much got the old smug style. Not that limbaugh's not
smug, but nothing like Hannity. He has and he's got that old
fashioned smug style with a modern yak yak yak approach
where he's not taking you know, he's the old smug guys just take
a lot of calls. This is the new smug
anyway, if I had if I had the time I guess I would start by
would start a show streaming every single day from noon to
three eastern time I do it immediately and give people a
choice. You can't do his exact stick but there's a void there
and it's going to someone's going to fill it up and it's not
going to be Mark Stein it's not even going to be the Rush
Limbaugh show it things do come to an end but that's pretty much
keeping 1000s of radio stations alive at this point
it's gonna be a huge problem because they don't know exists
substitutes he brings a lot of them and Dan bond Gino is one of
them another one guys you can only listen to him for they're
not it. There's something wrong with these other guys in
compared to Limbaugh who's can keep your attention and he does
good. His analysis is good. That's the thing. That's, that's
interesting. I've listened to this guy when I'm usually not
driving around, listen to him, but when I do, I'm always
impressed especially during the election season of his analysis.
He had an analysis I don't have a clip of it, but he he
discusses what the Democrat party's gonna have to do if
Bernie wins and who's gonna be the VP kind of stuff we do. And
he's got this theory that the Democrats This is the theory
basically the Democrats know they're gonna lose the Trump day
the insiders did hot shots, the big boys,
the guys you follow.
So who are they going to put up against Trump that can take a
deck can be beat up and without hurting the party long term?
Well, he thinks it's Bernie because Bernie will be beaten.
And that'll be the end of this socialism crap. It'll get it out
of the way. So what happened with when they ran McGovern,
right back in the day? Well, Nick,
I think that yes. And as we've discussed here it is the
election that America deserves, you know, Hey, you want this guy
this direction, you want that guy that direction, that's what
we deserve. I think they're truly afraid that Bernie would
win. Mainly because of the do anything to get Trump out. And I
think there's apprehension on that on their part for that.
Everything feels like it. But with Biden out, the question is,
I'm sorry, you're not I'm sorry.
Let me in my world, Biden's out in the world of MSNBC Biden's
out what's interesting. And I watched a lot of this coverage.
MSNBC is hands down just the one to watch if you want to know
what the party line is, because they keep bringing people on,
you know, pundits, who are either consultants or they're
clearly read, you know, their surrogates at Fox does that too.
But they're really, they're really pretending to be just
interested parties here for the discussion in the conversation.
So Joy Reid, who was not a Das, you know, she's not a an African
American in the truest sense of the word. But of course, she
represents black America when it comes to MSNBC. And here's what
she had to say.
There's only room for her or Buttigieg in that lane. And
Biden is really there's they're freezing him out. And you know,
what I was saying in the break is that this is, you know, this
is sort of a focus group of white voters in the northeast,
in these two states, right. And these two states, what I see
there is that the people coming out of New Hampshire, none of
that none of those people have residents with black voters.
None of them do. The one who has residents. The ones who have
residents are Biden, who's getting crushed. And if he
doesn't work out what I'm hearing from black voters
consistently, if Biden goes down, going to Bloomberg.
Nonsense.
But listen to the exact words she's saying. She's saying he's
getting squeezed, she's she is repeating line she's heard,
Biden's getting squeezed. He's not going to make it black
voters, and then what I'm hearing what I'm now and the
confusion, of course is oh, she is black. So she must know what
African Americans are thinking what I'm hearing know, what
she's hearing is from the Hillary Clinton clamp a camp or
maybe it's Hillary and Bloomberg camp. I actually tried to
register Bloomberg Clinton 2020 It's been taken, all those are
gone. Bloomberg clinton.com also gone. So she's she's instructed
to tell black people that they should go to Bloomberg, there's
no other way to see this. And of course,
the massive black audience at MSNBC.
Just it's not. You get my point.
Yeah. Well, she tried to voice messaging there on behalf of, of
Hillary.
Well, there was one other message that came in on behalf
of Hillary and let me see where it was this lady. Huh? Well,
okay, that sucks.
While you're looking for that computer continued, I do have a
wrap up of the New Hampshire thing. And this is off of Fox
radio. This is the New Hampshire rap. From Fox radio.
former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick suspends his
presidential campaign becoming the third Democrat to drop out
following Andrew. Well, let's listen again. former
Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick suspends his
presidential campaign.
What? Right at the moment he should have been there for black
America. Oh, no, no, no, no, I
mean, the third Democrat to drop out following Andrew Yang and
Senator Michael Bennet, after the New Hampshire primary New
Hampshire went for Bernie Sanders. We're going to Nevada.
We're going to South Carolina. We're gonna win those faces. But
a close second was former
mayor Pete Buttigieg. In this election season, we have been
told by some that you must either be for revolution, or you
are for the status quo. But where does that leave the rest
of us
now Joe Biden who finished in fifth place left early to
campaign in South Carolina
to hear from Nevada and South Carolina and Super Tuesday
states and beyond. A Senator
Amy Klobuchar said she's headed to those states after coming
back with a third place finish. Elizabeth Warren who came in
fourth predicted a long primary fight ahead.
I found my clip. Another person who showed up with Chris Chris
Matthews was Adrian elder and if you saw her you'd be Oh yes, I
know who this is. Oh l I'm sorry Adrienne Elrod, she's a
shell rodlike L Ron Hubbard, l rod,
Echo Lima Romeo, Oscar Delta L rod. And let me see if I can
find it. Now she is the daughter of lifelong friends. Her
daughter of parents of lifelong friends of Bill and Hillary. She
was Hillary for America, strategic director
communications and surrogates.
What's your first name? Again?
Adrianne ADR? Okay. Adrianne, is just semi cute. She's like 40.
Your typical, she would actually do well on Fox. She has been a
commentator on Fox News, Fox Business,
but I'm looking at she's a blonde. I've don't recognize
her.
Well, I watch more MSNBC than you do so. And for good reason.
Yeah, I don't I don't die of premature death.
She She has held a variety of positions, the 2008 Hillary
Clinton presidential campaign, you get the point she is not
just has not been working, not just working for Clinton, but
she is also family friends. And so she nista Yes. And she's on
the same. The same panel with joy, read and listen to watch.
So I'm just going to presume everything that comes out of her
mouth is coming from the Clinton camp. It seems only logical to
believe this.
That a lot of money. I think he could spend a billion dollars
easily. He probably makes a billion dollars during the
course of this campaign. Seriously. He's just dipping
into the tail as it comes in. What happens if he's the
candidate against Trump? Is he gonna would he be able to lead
the Democrats? Absolutely. To be a Democrat?
Well, he's running the Democratic primary, and he's
doing pretty.
Okay, why don't nobody really put me about that. And of
course, I
wish that was the ad that I saw Joe Biden closing with a new
hamster.
So she's right away. Absolutely. He's running the whole camp
Absolutely, absolutely. Sums up.
Interesting analysis.
How could it be anything else? So the, the thinking I have is,
first of all, march 3, which will be an interesting date,
because that's when I'm on Rogen is Super Tuesday. And I think we
will see the equivalent of an atomic bomb, a nuclear bomb of
money being dropped on Super Tuesday, by Bloomberg. It's just
going to be sent by the way the guy is running. It looks as if
he was the vice president for Obama. Have you seen the ads? So
yeah.
Well, that's one set of the ads. Where do we see all the ads?
Okay, well, I've seen the one where he's with Obama here. He's
in the helicopter with Obama. He's, in fact, when he says I'm
Michael Bloomberg, and I approve this message. I at one point I
thought I heard on Barack Obama and I approve this message. It
was just it's crazy and kind of insulting towards Joe.
Yeah. I think demand to be insulting towards Joe. Joe can
not get Obama didn't help him.
No, and Obama is not going to say anything until there's a
candidate. I think that's why he's not making a big deal out
Joe's using some Obama clips. Now, as we already know, he's
already on the wall. You know, the Biden Obama administration.
It's sad, man. It's sad to watch so Sadek. But I'm happy about
Amy, you know, I'm a big fan. She's she's got a little juice
there. She will. She's on the radar. She will not become
president, but she will. She will have elevated her status. I
think she's probably a good a good, Senator. I think she'd be
she's good at that. She didn't have to do much more people like
her. And she, she brought what was necessary to the to the
conversation to kind of shake it up. And then all that's left is
this amazing surge for SIOP Pete, who I spoke to Puranic
yesterday, ah, briefly, and, and he says, What are your clues
that because I said I mentioned the conversation though SIOP
Pete says, Oh, what do you think he said, Well, just clearly is,
he's a spook. He's, he's been, he's been planted just like
Obama. CIA handlers. He says, What's your clue? I said, Well,
Rhodes Scholar, Harvard, elite, Notre Dame, he said, Yeah,
what's the other one? I had to think for a second, and then it
hit me I McKinsey, of course, and that's, that's really the
giveaway. McKinsey and these guys, they are the consultants
of the military industrial complex. They are the
consultants to Wall Street today. It's the big one, and
they they embed embed with these organizations. If you listen, if
you listen to him speak, it's like, not a word is out of
place. Not a single word is wrong. Nothing that could be
misconstrued as anti anything. It's just it's perfect. I'm
actually I'm not even sure he's gay. That may be an act to you
know, is his husband is a an improv artist. Do what he does
improv.
Oh, that's a funny idea.
Why not? It's perfect. Don't focus on McKenzie. Focus on
Kiss. Yeah, don't focus on the Kinsey focus on me being gay.
Yeah, well, somebody posted a picture of him in Afghanistan
and noted that he, he had it looked like the whole picture
was a fake. The job badges no patches. No. No name tag. No,
not that he
wasn't standing over a dead Iraqi taking a picture.
diggin jerry rigged one of those two. Yeah, that guy could be
that's funny that he's not gay.
Well, I just, I mean, I don't I don't want to take anything away
from him. It's just for a moment then like, well, if you wanted
to distract from your obvious spook background, which is
rarely mentioned that it's it's just so similar to Obama that,
you know, community organizer. Whenever they say Mayor Pete It
was an I guess he's no longer the mayor.
The media is in on this deal. I mean, they're, they would never
they never wasn't even harped on that George HW Bush was actually
the director of the CIA for for a while and in Dallas, I guess
during the shooting of Kennedy and who which may or may not be
true, but it seems like a good story. But that was never
discussed much just seemed fine. Oh, yeah. Who director the CIA's
secret police. He's running the country that makes sense. So
why not? What's wrong with that? What's your what's your problem?
Nobody's resist us, bringing up the fact that Buddha judge is a
spook. Yeah, well, it just seems like seems abundantly clear to
me. abundantly clear.
So what else Janek have to say,
well, actually, it wasn't what he said. But we were talking and
then an idea hit me and I actually want to do a little
presentation if you don't mind.
Oh, yeah. Whoa, it's a little changing the structure of the
show?
Well, no, no, that's not true. From time to time. We do
presentations. Okay. I mean, it's, I just want, I was looking
at Trump and China. And China, China, China, China. And it
probably the first thing that got me going was this front
line. Special on Trump and trade, Trump and trade in China.
This will this will set it up despite
the uneven consequences. President Trump was all in on
the tariff strategy. It's a strategy he's been talking about
for years. As far back as the late 1980s. When he first tested
the possibility of becoming president, our guest, the famed
developer, Donald Trump of New York, back then the Trump's
target was Japan for what would been its trade practices.
The fact is that you don't have free trade. We think of it as
free trade. But you right now don't have free trade. And I
think a lot of people are tired of watching other countries
ripping off the United States. This is a great country.
He believed from the beginning, that there's really nothing
worse than being laughed
at. They laugh at us behind our backs. They laugh at us because
of our own stupidity. And
by the way, here's Trump with a much higher voice to which of
course is due to age. This is the 80s this is 1988. And
he came to see the Japanese as laughing at the United States
are taking advantage of the United States by stealing the
jobs by dumping product
here, let Japan come in and dump everything right into our
markets. And it's not free trade. If you ever go to Japan
right now and try to sell something, forget about it or
just forget about it. It's almost impossible. After Japan's
economy crater, Trump shifted his IRA to a rising
economic power, China,
they are ripping us, like we've never been ripped before. If you
look at Japan, if you look at China, where we lose $100
billion a year with China
has been saying the same thing for 30 years, Donald Trump has a
very binary view of life and certainly of the world and, and
so to confront China, which he perceives as America's most
important and dangerous rival, and to be able to use one
instruments against them and to come out and at least be able to
say that you're a winner and their loser. There's it's hard
to imagine anything more appealing to the core of his
personality.
So I've been wanting to play clips of him talking about China
decades ago, so and I had even forgotten that he because I was
in New York when he was coming up. 8788 And you know, everyone
was everyone loved loved Trump. Half those interviews are from
Oprah. And he even said OPRAH You should be my vice president.
Anyway. has one everyone's still loved him. So clearly, he's
always had a grasp of the issues with the trade imbalance. And
it's when Japan was no longer a threat he shifts to China. It's
not just the media that is saying this. His his number one
guy when he when he ran the campaign, Steve Banyon says the
same
for some of them at Trump. I was, you know, coming out of
Goldman Sachs and being somebody that been in finance for a
number of years, I was set to be unimpressed. I was actually very
impressed that he didn't know a lot of details, he knew almost
no policy. But what I found most extraordinary was when we got to
the section on China, which I kind of threw out there have a
two hour meeting, almost 30 minutes or more was all about
China,
we have a $500 billion deficit, trade deficit with China,
the only thing he had formed as a worldview was China, because
we
can't continue to allow China to rape our country. And that's
what they're doing. It's the greatest theft in the history of
the world.
Talk in this kind of vernacular, that kind of hit people in the
gut. And particularly we talked about trade and jobs, jobs
shipping overseas was
his message to these people on tray. China's to blame. Yeah,
message
very simple as that the elite ship the jobs overseas, and I'm
gonna bring it back.
And if I, if I look at our show, clip archive, we had stuff about
China before before the 2016 election, but it wasn't really
much it wasn't on our radar, unless you can remember some
specific instance, where we were talking about it in the past
before Trump came on the scene.
I think it's only in passing through Well, grouse a little
bit like everybody did
a little bit but nothing, nothing big. We didn't really
care. So Trump comes out comes on the scene. And during the
initial election process in the campaign, you pretty much this
is it, let's say China,
China, China, China, China, China, China, China, China,
China, you go over to China, China, China, China, China,
China, China, China, you take China, China, China, I love
them, China, China, China, China, China, I have to have my
China,
right China, China, China, now RAM that into everybody's head.
And he of course connected it to the complete removal of
manufacturing in the United States. This is before the
before the campaign is 2000 Are you eating something?
No, trying to sort through these papers and looking for something
to keep going. I want to interrupt your own presentation.
Want to make sure you're not bored. That's that's my biggest
fear. My biggest fear is
a second stop, stop it. If I'm a little bored, I usually say
something to get you to move along a little bit. And then you
get mad at me. But it's not for me never just say something.
I've always say something. No, but I heard you rustling papers.
So I'm like, rustling papers I am I can move the mic. So what
you want to hear I just don't
want you to be bored. I'm doing it for you. Okay, I'm doing it
free.
You're doing fine. All right,
we're back to China's set for these interruptions. 2010.
Here's what Trump had to say, you
know, we don't manufacture anything anymore. In this
country. We do health care.
This is 1010 years ago, let me just remind you 10 years ago,
you know,
we don't manufacture anything anymore. In this country. We do
health care. We do lots of different services. But the big
service is manufacturing. Everything's made in China, for
the most part between China, India and others. But China in
particular, and, frankly, they're sending stuff over here.
And we're paying for it and you know, sort of interesting, very
little tax, if any paid. And yet you can't do business in China,
you're not allowed to do business in China, it's almost
impossible to do business in China. And yet, they take our
business from North Carolina from South Carolina from
Alabama, they make toys, they then sell them to this country.
They make tremendous profits. And then they loan this country
money in the form of treasuries. And I think it's terrible. So
what do we do about China? This is an issue that you're
obviously really passionate about, you know, look at what
Google has done taking a stand in China. I think we're not
going to do business this way. You know, you've got
that's how long ago this was when Google pretended to take a
stance against China.
I think we're not going to do business this way. You know,
you've got big businesses with very different takes on China,
lots of different businesses. But when it comes to
manufacturing, China's making all of these products and they
could be made in North Carolina, they could be made in Alabama,
they could be made at a lots of our places. And right now
they're not personally I tax China, because it's not a free
trade country. I would tax China very, very heavily. And the
money that you'd get from that tax because some of the products
would still get through even with the tax, but it would
create jobs in this country.
So what Trump is saying 10 years ago, which is the most recent
one where I find it, where he put it all together is because
of the imbalances because of how China doesn't play fair and
makes their products So unclick incredibly cheap, below cost of
what we could do it here, every everyone has sent everything
over to China. And the more I look at it, the more amazed I am
at what has actually gone to China. In fact, I'll just stop
the timeline. This is Rosemary Gibson, she wrote a book called
China RX, which you won't hear about, because no mainstream
media outlet is going to let you rail against the pharmaceutical
industry. But it's pretty bad.
It began in the early 90s, when generic drugs really came came
out strong. President Reagan was bipartisan in the 80s. Let's
have a generic drug act. And that made medicines a lot
cheaper for people, the brand name products would go off
patent. So let's make generics. And so over time, how do we make
these cheaper, and so we started sourcing the ingredients to make
them in China. And then once we opened up free trade, this was a
real real stunner. So when we opened up free trade and China
join WTO, the next year, we lost our last aspirin plant, we lost
our ability to make vitamin C, we don't make the ascorbic acid
anymore. That's when the last penicillin plant closed, can't
make the core components, the acetyl salicylic acid and the a
score, but we cannot make it here. And that's because not
just opening, quote free trade. But China cheats with our
medicines and cartels. They form these cartels, they dump it on
the global market, at below market prices, and they drove
everybody out.
I didn't know that we don't even make our own aspirin or vitamin
C anymore, or that we apparently don't even have the capability
to do it. And this is
we could probably recover the capability.
Oh, we could but not like you said, hey, I want it tomorrow.
Of course we know well, that would take you what take you in
a few months though. But it is also
it's your you know what people don't give a shit about this
because you're not sick. I'll tell you if you knew that, that
we can't make Viagra in America, people would lose their shit.
What China's control on my deck. So it's just a matter of what
you know and what you don't know. So Trump gets in his main
message is build a wall which he also connects to jobs, etc. and
met we got to bring manufacturing back. That was his
consistent message before China really it was. We got to start
the manufacture. We got to bring steel, we got to have our own
steel. We don't have a country it's national security and
manufacturing. And whether it's 12,000 factories or 1200. I
don't know he started something we will pour
new concrete, laying new brick. And watch new sparks light our
factories as we forge metal from the furnaces of our Rust Belt
and our beloved Heartland which has been forgotten, but it's not
forgotten anymore. We will put new American steel into the
spine of our country. American workers will construct gleaming
new lanes of commerce across our landscape. They will build these
monuments from coast to coast and from city to city. We will
embark on a wonderful new journey into a bright and
glorious future we will build again we will grow again. We
will thrive again. And we will make America great again.
Right so then he gets into the hole he gets in and this is I
think actually the from a state of the union is first one. And
then he's talking trade wars tariffs. We're gonna finally
He's got the power. He's gonna do what He said I'm gonna do
what he's been promising for all these years. I would tax him I
would tax him. China, of course calls his bluff.
I've been very consistent. The US President Donald Trump says
he wants to hit China with a big fine on trade. But in the
capital Beijing experts and insiders say there's little
sense of a crisis voices in the US business community. You have
warned China that the US President is serious about tough
action on trade. And he told Reuters in an exclusive
interview potential big damages are on the way. However Reuters
Michael Martina and Beijing says officials think Trump is
bluffing.
So here in China, the sense we get is that Chinese officials
aren't overly concerned about the threat of a trade action by
the Trump administration. For one they feel that perhaps the
Trump administration doesn't have the the political standing
and sort of will to endure the economic fallout
and well we did and he did any put the tariffs on too much a
grain of the markets and it was I mean, we forget these things
at least I do. And the only shit yeah remember it was pissed off
about it what's going on? Do we have a is there a trade war is a
no trade war and everything seems to be okay. We still have
tariffs. But then we were a couple other things some
economic blows. ZTE, were like now you can't sell here anymore.
Android you can't have that. 5g. Yeah, we're not so sure we will
want you on our networks? So this is pushing, these are
economic, economic warfare, pushing down pushing back. And
then we get phase one of the trade deal. And phase one has
some very specific things that China must do. Although of
course, they have an out under the force majeure clause, which
says, Well, you know, if something happens, and we can
always figure it out later, that takes place. Then we have Barr,
who is the attorney general. And we have Pompeo, the Secretary of
State going out into the heartlands to talk about what we
need to do about China's encroachment on pretty much
everything. So I think this is the clip that I played. Okay,
this is, this is Pompeo, he's setting them up here. This is
the National Governors Association, the winter meeting,
which was just held
last year, I received an invitation to an event they
promised to be, quote and occasion for exclusive deal
making. It said, quote, the opportunities for mutually
beneficial economic development between China and our individual
states are tremendous, and of quote, deal making sounds like
it might have come from President Trump. But the
invitation was actually from a former governor, I was being
invited to the US China governors collaboration Summit.
It was an event co hosted by the National Governors Association,
and something called the Chinese People's association for
friendship and foreign countries. Sounds pretty
harmless. What the invitation did not say is that the group,
the group I just mentioned, is the public face of the Chinese
Communist Party's official foreign influence agency, the
United Front work department. Now, I was lucky, I was familiar
with that organization for my time as the director of the
Central Intelligence Agency, but it got me thinking, How many of
you made the link between that group and Chinese Communist
Party officials? What if you made a new friend while you were
at that event? What if your new friend asked you for
introductions to other political, politically connected
and powerful people? What if your new friend offered to
invest big money in your state? Perhaps your pension in industry
is sensitive to our national security? These aren't
hypotheticals, these scenarios are all too true. And they
impact American foreign policy significantly, indeed, last
year, a think tank and Yes.
So is he expressing this as though this is a new phenomenon
that he stumbled upon? And everybody else was oblivious to?
No, even though no one was he when he was a head of the CIA,
and this was going on this has been going on? Yes, that's the
point. He years.
That's the point. Barr is probably introducing this to
these governors who are a bunch of tired looking people in this
audience. And he's saying, Hey, we know this has been going on.
We know what's happening. He's doing it rhetorically because of
the audience that he's speaking to. He doesn't want to say, hey,
you should hedge or you going to not bars Pompeo Correct. He's
what he's saying is, hey, you should heads look at what you've
done. You've compromised, possibly compromised national
security, you've let them in, you've taken money from them. So
he's, it's a friendly way of saying, This is not good, what
you've done and
powerful people. What if your new friend offered to invest big
money in your state reps and your pension in industry is
sensitive to our national security? These aren't
hypotheticals, these scenarios are all too true, and they
impact American foreign policy significantly. Indeed, last
year, a Chinese government backed think tank in Beijing
produced a report that assess all 50 of America's governors,
on their attitudes towards China. They labeled each of you
friendly, Hardline, or ambiguous. I'll let you decide
where you think you belong. Someone in China already has.
So yeah, he's setting them up. He's setting them up to use them
up for what he's got to say. Meanwhile, the same week, this
is just last week, the same week, Barr talked to a bunch of
entrepreneurs and captains of industry about 5g
and other countries that do not want to put their economic fate
in China's hands are not going to install Huawei infrastructure
we have to have a market ready alternative. Today, you need a
system that will allow you to seamlessly migrate your
installed 4g base to your to 5g. There have been some proposals
that these concerns could be met by the United States aligning
itself with Nokia and or erection.
So that was his idea. And this is the this is the Attorney
General out there doing these speeches. They've been sent into
the field the final clip, which makes it even a little bit more
clear, nothing we haven't talked about since almost the beginning
of this show. But Pompeo again reiterates to the governors the
FBI
director and I think the Attorney General to talk to
yesterday about something called the 1000 talents plan. Its plan
to recruit science different professors to transfer the know
how we have here to China in exchange for enormous paydays.
The program's probably targeted campuses in your state. Indeed,
the Department of Justice is indicted professors in my home
state at the University of Kansas at Virginia Tech. And at
Harvard, a Texas a&m investigation reportedly
discovered more than 100 academics participating in
Chinese Talent Recruitment plans, only five of them had
declared that they were participating in this program.
And goodness knows what else we've not discovered. There are
indeed very credible reports of Chinese government officials
pressuring Chinese students, students studying right here in
the United States of America to monitor monitor fellow Chinese
students and to report back to Beijing. Many of you are
familiar with Confucius Institutes, Confucius Institutes
purport to have the sole purpose of teaching Mandarin language
skills and Chinese culture. A bipartisan Senate committee
found last year in 2019 that the Chinese Communist Party controls
nearly every aspect of the Confucius Institutes activities
here in the United States. Over the past few months, the
University of Missouri the University of Kansas, the
University of Maryland, have independently decides to close
down their Confucius Institutes after conducting their own
reviews in schools in 22. Other states are doing or have already
done the same. Sadly, China's propaganda campaign starts even
earlier than college China has targeted K through 12 schools
through its Confucius classrooms. The CCP is
programmed to influence kids in elementary, middle and high
schools around the world. Do you know that we have no ability to
establish similar programs in China? I'm sure that doesn't
surprise you, the President Trump's talked about reciprocity
and trade, we should have reciprocity and all things
today, they have free rein in our system, and were completely
shut out from theirs. As of 2017, there were 519 of these
classrooms in the United States. Beijing knows that today's kids
are tomorrow's leaders, the China competition is happening.
It's happening in your states. And it's a competition that goes
to the very basic freedoms that every one of us values.
And so to summarize, Trump has been on to the Chinese for
decades. He sees the threat he sees what the seeping in of the
Chinese all throughout our everything, our schooling, our
economy, our manufacturing, all manufacturing is was gone. We
can't even make our own pharmaceuticals if we needed to
at a drop of a hat. He he's he just doesn't he's I think he saw
it as war that we were attacked. So we sets up a new
manufacturing, bam, boom, I don't know how far it is. But I
guess we're doing something we got to we got to plant here a
plant there that I was like, Oh, the Chinese are going to
investing money here Jack Ma is going to put money in this so we
can handle some of that manufacturing. We get a trade
deal in place. The economy is starting to have a problem in
China, mainly just their own financials, you know, they they
lie about everything. So they have this whole IOU secondary
money flow that is probably stopped right now. All of this
stuff is set up. And then all of a sudden, when China is arguably
a little bit weak Wuhan flu. Now tell me, we are not at war with
China. And whether that was a targeted strike from us or a
very coincidental happenstance. This is war. And we just may be
issued a kill shot.
Well, liked the presentation. Thank you. I'm not going to go
as far as you went with the conclusion. I think there's a
there's no proof that the Wuhan flu is anything other than what
it is a another Coronavirus, which attacks Chinese just
naturally.
But can I just interrupt you? I didn't say this was a bio
weapon. It's just the flu. I think it passes. I think it will
be gone. There's just a lot of Chinese and maybe he just took
advantage of the situation.
Maybe 19. Man,
maybe this is all media hype. Maybe it isn't all that bad.
Maybe all the stuff we're hearing has been manufactured.
Maybe there's not really half a million dead. And the satellite
photos maybe that's not bodies burning, maybe it's all just
media. And what it has done successfully is you know, bike
parts are no longer being shipped. There's an actual steel
manufacturer called force majeure. Right?
just summarize what you're gonna say. Just But whatever the
reason, or how this ever came about, which is not uncommon in
China for these epidemics to take place. Exactly. The fact
that they had to shut down the city of Wuhan. That's the only
thing we can be sure of. I don't believe any of the crematorium
stuff is it makes no sense. And but they did do a complete
shutdown and it resulted in shortages that our mayor Can
manufacturers now have to deal with? Yes is is the warning shot
is hey, this is what you guys have done to yourself, you've
become so dependent on this one channel that what happens if
this channel goes away completely?
Excellent point that's I'd like that even better as the
conclusion that this is more. This is more I'm sorry. Well, I
didn't get to the second part which is a warning shot to US
manufacturing that part I hadn't. But that makes total
sense that this source
someplace else people but
while we were all looking at Russia and impeachment and
Ukraine, this has just been going on in the background is
just been happening just like I guess now that in the in the
latest spending bill, there is actual money to build the wall
which no no one is out there yelling that he can't do it.
They have other other things that are more powerful because
they know that most Americans want some kind of border
protection. So that's why you know, vindman You know, like
whatever was in min min, the I hear he purge 70 from the
National Security Council. 70 people,
ya know, he's trying to well get bloated.
Well, no kidding. 250 or something like that is a bunch
of people
that should be like, it used to be like, 20 people total. Now
this is like all these people that Obama's shoved in there, as
you know, kind of like, almost like it was a patronage. He's
from Chicago. And patronage is the way to go. In other words,
you get you create something, you just keep stuffing people in
it, they don't have anything to do there. They just get a
paycheck. And that's what the way Chicago will politics used
to always be. It was called patronage. And that is when you
won the you became the mayor, you got to people, there's all
these empty slots, and you got to put all your buddies in here,
you see a little bit of that in places like Berkeley, where one
of the mayor's got to, you know, got in he first thing he did was
take city money and build a bunch of housing, and put all
his pals in there. It's what you do, what you do, it's old
fashioned way of doing it. And that's what Obama did quite
nicely. And little, Trump sees no reason for patronage. He just
says his family and these so you get rid of all these jokers.
So anyway, it'll be very interesting to see what the next
moves are. But that's how I'm looking at it. I'm looking at it
from a I you know, this part of this was pathetic is very
adamant about saying we're not going to have kinetic wars
anymore. It's not going to it's just not. He says going to all
be cyber space is very important. Although he's very
down on the idea of the Air Force. Initially manning the
Space Force, he thinks they're no good. Like, really, really
thinks they're no good. He's on his farms. He's all into the
national the National Geospatial agency, which changed their name
to the Geospatial Intelligence Agency. Yeah, recently,
they had to do that for their pride for us, because that's
what they were doing all along. Yeah,
until everyone else came in with their stupid internet. What the
hell, man? You with your internet spying? That's no good.
I'm just gonna look at it that way that that's what a lot of
this is about. And you know, we're all running around and
that you gotta take it to the next step. But the secondary
presentation, okay, why are the Democrats and specifically the
liberals and the will the socialists, even all of them are
so dead set against Trump accomplishing what he's trying
to accomplish? Well, that's easy. What is it? The benefits?
What is easy? That's easy. That's easy. Money. There is. I
mean, Washington DC is just filled with lobbyists who have
tons of Chinese money, like they own Hollywood. China owns most
of Hollywood at this point. And one of the main guys in DC is
Ambassador Cui Tiankai. And this is a mover a shaker. He's at all
the right party. She's got tons of dough, you can register, and
most people don't. But you can register under Farah of foreign
agency registration for an agent Registration Act. Then you can
go just be in bars talk about China talk them up. How about
New York Times Square? Where's that money go? There's money
there's tons of money going into campaigns it's it's it's rife,
of course corrupt from the church. It's Chinese corruption
has taken over the Democrat parties that are saying
and I'm not just the Democrat party. Come on, let's be honest
about this at all politicians are susceptible to this. But the
Democrats Yeah. Obama bowed when he went to Chai cons like hey,
that was the one of the first things he did. I almost fell
over. He bowed so low. Oh, they were all about China. Because
that's where all the money was. You know, there's a lot of
cleanser also about China. They gave nuclear secrets. Yeah. And
then I can see Romney being all up in China because of his, you
know, connection to Bain capital's Chinese money after
course. Well we're doomed
I do have a clip from Face the Nation we
gather some people out there damn a clue. We're getting no
Chinese money.
No thank you. How good life would be. Listen China here's
the money we got your number show you want us to let up? No
divorce.org/and A will talk. So here's the Chinese ambassador
who was on Face The Nation. With a very interesting way of
evading the question about the Wuhan, Nas the Coronavirus,
being a possible biological agent. Listen carefully.
Senator Tom Cotton, who sits on the Senate Intelligence and
Armed Services Committee suggested that the virus may
have come from China's biological warfare program.
That's an extraordinary charge.
How do you respond to that?
I think it's true that a lot is still unknown. And our
scientists, Chinese scientists, American scientists, scientists
of other countries are doing their best to learn more about
the virus. But it's very harmful. It's very dangerous, to
stir up suspicion, rumors and spread them among the people.
For once, this will create panic. Another thing is that it
will fend up racial discrimination, xenophobia, all
these things that will really harm our joint efforts to combat
the virus. Of course, there all kinds of speculation and rumors.
There are people who are saying that these virus are coming from
some military lab, not of China, maybe in the United States. How
can we believe all these crazy things?
You think it's crazy? Where did the crazy Where did the virus
come from?
We still don't know yet. It's probably according to some
initial outcome of the research. Probably coming from some
animals, but we have to, to discover more about it. It's
interesting, he doesn't actually deny it. He doesn't say no, no,
no, that's not possible. He says, Well, you know, it's very
harmful. To have these rumors. Some people say it's from
America, like, he'd never say, No.
Well, the interesting thing about that interview is that his
first phrase, when she asked a question, the very first thing
he says, and this is a truth wants to come. I know.
It's true. I know. Let's listen again. You're so right. I was
ready.
Senator Tom Cotton, who sits on the Senate Intelligence and
Armed Services Committee suggested that the virus may
have come from China's biological warfare program.
That's an extraordinary charge.
How do you respond to that?
I think it's true that a lot is still unknown.
I think it's true, that a lot is still unknown. There you go.
And of course, if you're going to be asked a question like
that, this is just the all the elements of a lie. If you'd
otherwise you just say no,
that's, that would be the simple way to do it. Did you have
anything on Wuhan or?
No, nothing new. I mean, I might have let's see what the what's
on the list?
No, I have. I have this one, which is not really new, but
it's worth mentioning.
Here we go. We also have a new name for the virus. The World
Health Organization. COVID-19 Benjamin Newman is professor of
Biological Sciences at Texas a&m University, and he was on the
panel considering these new names. He told the BBC what's
involved in choosing a name for the virus?
I've just stopped here for saying this is so disappointing
to me.
Yeah, it sounds like a birth control pill
you know, we name hurricanes we get girl names boy getting boy
names, or why do we have to do this COVID-19
We're trying not to name check, a person a place and on the
Coronavirus naming committee, we decided not to actually include
2019 in the name as the who did when they were naming the
disease. The idea was that there are actually five epic Ronin
viruses that dependent outbreaks this year including MERS
Coronavirus, and so the year isn't particularly indicative.
Blah, blah, blah. You guys are not good marketers. That's
that's the bottom market to
the clip I have is the WHO about the World Health Organization
COVID And this is who COVID-19 clip.
The World Health Organization is warning the Coronavirus poses a
grave threat to the world. As the death toll in China tops
1100 People with more than 44,000 confirmed infections
worldwide was 99% of cases in China. This remains very much an
emergency for that country, but one that holds a very grave
threat for the rest of the world. Unless We use the window
of opportunity that we have now. Meanwhile, at least 174 people
have now tested positive for Coronavirus on the quarantine
cruise ship, the Diamond Princess, which is docked off
the coast of Japan. There are 3600 people aboard that ship
where crew members say the workers aren't being protected
from infection.
Yeah, well that'll go on for a little bit longer until it's
just dropped. And you know that they changed the counting
methodology. So now it looks like we had a huge spike in in
cases and deaths. So that that the thing that actually probably
hurt the market a little bit this morning, but it's back up
again. So this is all your being played. Thank you just being
played. This is not I just don't see this as being any like kind
of when we started out with like, we've been through this.
We've we've we've been to this movie John, we've we did this
swine flu. h1 and Juan SARS. We haven't we seen it all. And it's
like, no old people die from pneumonia. People who
are more confident just a regular old fashioned flu. Yeah.
Yeah. So I think there's a lot of playing going on. But at
least now we need to pay attention and maybe some
companies will learn that lesson. You know, Apple might
have learned their lesson. They brought some minute
manufacturing back to the States. We'll see who else
learns a lesson but for sure, there's gonna be stuff that we
don't have any more for a while. I think that's this is almost
impossible that they can get things going fast enough to, to
you know, it's all as we talked about, just in time, so people
are gonna start losing. Missing out on parts.
Missing out in time. Exactly. Mo i t.
And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage say in the
morning to you the man who put the C in the bachelors named
John C double rack.
In the morning, you and Mr. Adam curry in the morning all ships
and sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water and
all the names of knights out there.
Yes, in the morning to our trolls who have been very
trollee super trolling, trolling. They've been very
trolling. I'm doing my whole presentation and they're just
making racist jokes. Well, at least you can do it here. That's
kind of what the troll room is for. So we're glad that you're
having fun. Let me see how many people are in their trolling at
the moment live troll count 1087 Trolls doing their job? Also a
big in the morning to the artists who brought us the
artwork. For Episode What were we 1215. And let me just bring
that up for a second. The title of that was Omni pocalypse,
which I still think we've titled another show on the pocalypse
somewhere in the past. Yeah. Oh, never helped. I want to thank
Darren O'Neil. That's right. The man with the plan. Darren Oh,
from the radio, and he brought us the artwork it was I mean, he
couldn't ask for more intelligencia with the
appropriate nerd smiley face joined the intelligencia. The
artwork popped. It was funny, it was relevant to the to what was
discussed. And I don't think there was even a second to that
was one and done, I think. Yeah, do you remember that? Remember,
I don't remember
you don't remember? Well, it was perfect. And we love it. And
again, when you look at your podcast app, you see that
artwork, change and something fresh is there, it invites you
to listen, the whole point part of a value for value network,
thank you very much Darren O'Neill. Then we have people who
support the show financially. These are our Associate
Executive producers. And we start with our executive
producers at the top of the list.
Indeed. And at the very top of the list today is Dave focus,
odo ah, the URL, the URL URL Dave. And he sent a feature
length film script.
With with with lighting directions.
Yes. He contributed for 2820. And this course is. He's one of
our top guys at the moment. And so this script, I have the
treatment here.
Oh, yes. joins a little bit aside as we call that. I got my
side here. Yeah. And I'm
going to read it. I tried to edit it, but it's one of the
stories you know, he likes to tell these tales of, of travel.
And they're interesting enough that it's probably worth
reading. I skipped a couple of things but not too much. My
games are traveling for another competition. So bunches of flour
would just be another thing to topple over while driving and
drop petals and leaves around the hotel room is generally
troublesome therefore, because I love them I'm donating $214.10
to eat for each of Dame should be to 1420 If I put 10 or 20 in
the thing for each day melody and Dame Isabella for for 2820
donation of eternal love. This is the Valentine's Day does for
us is beautiful, as I'm sure by the way, nobody else maybe
everybody hates their lovers.
They and they hate their moms and dads according to our show.
Research has indicated kind of knew this didn't weigh
as I am sure it said many relationship history if you
really love if you really love bees, there's a quote of his if
you really loved me, you donate to no agenda.
I'm sorry, I'm off script. It's true. Wait a minute, the
St. Valentine state of my dreams and now a cautionary tale. Here
we go.
Sorry. I'm late. I'm late.
I did it myself. To travel karma from my work trip worked
perfectly. And I was once again smuggled into the harem zone for
a delightful supper at a classy establishment called TGI
Fridays, tgi fridays in Saudi Arabia. I have attached a photo
from the inside for your amusement however, I looked I
overlooked asking for travel karma for a short trip the
following weekend to a place called out Lulu. I went there to
see the ancient tombs of methane Sallie Mae Madain Salih,
sometimes referred to as Saudi Arabia's Saudi Arabia's Petra.
It's the name Nebula is the same Napoli and kingdom but further
south. That karmic lapse resulted in numerous avoidable
inconveniences. I request no agenda nation's indulgence as I
recount this experience for the benefit of all producers. Okay,
it was
long it was longer than this. This is an abbreviated version.
I only took out a few things. My pre booked a lodging was
apparently a date palm orchard. There was not a building inside
and it would indicate a place to lay down after a day of pre
emulations Fortunately, a random stranger from which who as dress
from who who asked directions offered to let me state his rest
house so it worked down I wasn't murdered my sleep
or anything. If you're gonna wait for me, you gotta read the
whole script if you want me to be on cue.
I took that one out by the way. They're exactly zero taxi cabs
is six Ubers in the entire town enough for a major festival.
Winter at 10 Tora has been going on for several months as Ubers
are also conveniently Uber vintage Land Rovers and one gets
the privilege of paying two to three times the normal rate.
Anyway, he goes on about that, but I will say okay, that gets a
little better. He says these goobers didn't apparently they
didn't run half the time and so he was didn't want to miss the
whole reason for the trip. The tombs have made the and Sally I
figured I better start walking this time her after about three
kilometers another Kylie stranger stopped and offered me
a ride I know what he's wearing inconvenience to society the
places amazing Jamie were just amazing. To see Yanni white
parts is white pants and sport coat look suspiciously like
Tulsi Gabbard,
remember Yanni
Well, this is what got me to stop for a second. I actually
did a little work on this letter married to
Linda Evans. I went to
see to Dubai for some event of Islam but at least 10 years ago
and they determine Jani was bandied about as some sort of an
insult they would call you a Yanni really Yeah. And so I
remember this very distinctly and so now all of a sudden
through his photos going to see Yanni and so I had to look up do
some work and find that Yanni indeed was playing in Saudi
Arabia and he was playing at this this same place out Lulu
which is a mirrored Palace entertainment venue which I find
it hard to believe you can't get a cab or something to go there
and back and forth but according to maybe you're not supposed to
be there I'm not sure what it why it's so hard to get to. And
so he was playing there it was it was there this last weekend.
Wow. And I'm thinking who's gonna go see Yanni in Saudi
Arabia says screw this thing ever. This is a screwball
letter.
I'm adding little Jani music to the background for you.
Experience reinforced a few things for me while traveling
and embracing the moment keeping your sense of humor and keep
going with the flow is essential. I have the same
advice for people. My advice is to keep Keep moving just keep
moving just keep moving you'll be fine. Although let's be
honest Dame melody would not have been amused by by the
experience at one point had to walk seven nor
by Yanni believe me.
Oh yeah. Although to be honest, they may or may not have been
amused most importantly travel karma only works if he asked for
it. That's right so donate douchebags get some karma of
your own. Having learned a hard lesson please give us a wee bit
Oh Irish dance travel goat karma for the girls. And a bonus dose
of goat scream for me as I traveled to Bahrain for Friday's
most marvelous Middle East meet up in Mahna Mahna Mahna Mahna
Mahna Mahna Mahna Mahna Mahna Mahna doo doo doo it's going to
be magnificent
All right, well, I I wonder if when he's back stateside if he'd
be interested going to a John Tisch concert with me I think we
found a good look. You've got extra go thank you very much sir
Dave, the URL with which with a script.
Okay, we got an anonymous turn to $33.33 for Norman, Oklahoma.
I said he has a note and indeed he does but it's no he says he
doesn't want anyone to read out this is if you thought that was
long. This note is three times longer. Three times 3x is three
printed anyway he just no jingles no karma. So the note is
the note. Good note by the way. This is a very entertaining note
Jews and I enjoy it. Brian McDonough is $300.49 is next on
the list. Greetings gents. longtime listener an infrequent
donor love the show and they may dello right sizing which has
resulted from listening. I'm trying this interesting. I'm
trying to wean my wife from am 5am by pointing out pointing out
can I make a recommendation if you're trying to wean someone
off of something if you want to introduce them animated no
agenda give them that to say hey check this out. That I think
that's that is your gateway animated no agenda is a gateway
drug to the good stuff. I agree.
Anyway, I'd like to request a bowling karma for my human
resource was a big tournament this week in Las Vegas. I think
that's good.
Yes, it's interesting. You left off the point that he knows
you're a bowler so I don't know if people realize that. Oh,
well. It used to be you have a ball you have a ball and gloves
and shoes. Karma it's like I have dance shoes.
He says that he was you get $300.49 in so in case he gets a
200 game or converts a four nine split mean it's not the worst
split in the world. 710 is the worst split rely think actually
a five 710 which is the worst split because it's also an
embarrassment that you left it
not that you're a bowler or anything.
I left a five 710 once in my life and I was just I was I was
I felt so bad for the team that sorry that sorry. So sad. Their

our group of well wishers Associate Executive producers
and producers, executive producers for show what 1216
Yes. And I'd like to say Happy Valentine's Day to my beautiful
wife, Tina, the keeper.
I'm saying Valentine's Day to my daughter and my wife and all the
relatives that are when
in the ships at sea, you know, boots on the ground. Just as a
quick aside. So Tina, really wanted to take my last name and
be Tina curry. This is shit. give any idea how hard this is
to change your name on stuff these days. It's insane. Why
off? Could you can't it's not just like, Okay, I've changed it
here Social Security office. And that's not enough. Oh, no, no,
yeah. And you've got to sit at the DMV and then you've got to
go to the to the title company for the house and then and then
the passport which is another it's it's never ending credit
card. Oh, gotta change. It's it is. It's almost not worth it.
It's really, really insane. how hard that is.
How hard is it to keep both names?
What do you mean keep her original name and have a it's
like two names? Yeah. Now police when you travel, like you know.
So she done everything. She's like, oh shit. We have tickets
to Florida. It's under her maiden name. Under previous
name, but she but now she has a driver's license with Tina curry
on it. That's a nonstarter. So luckily, she hadn't done the
passport yet. So you just got to think of all this stuff. It's
like, they it's like they don't want you to do it really shut up
slave keep your name or something like that. I don't
need her to track. It's, yeah, well, it seems like it's an
opportunity changing your name, you can't you can't be tracked
as they definitely don't let you change your name very easily.
But yes, Valentine to her. And we'd like to thank these fine
producers who had their own Valentine's notes for
themselves. Thank them for their courage and for their support of
the best podcast in the universe. After all, as your
podcast you're the one producing it someone and maybe that was
Remy someone on Twitter said, Holy crap. How do you guys do
that? How do you do you do your own research? Where do you get
the clips from? Do you have a producing staff? I said yes.
1000s
When you stop? I think I forgot to mention Ms. Jaime of the
highway $214.33. Oh, no. Yes, you did. Because I was looking
at St. Funding. Nobody else put in $214 for Valentine's Day,
then I look I'm looking I see. Miss Jamie of the highway. Oh,
and all it says on there on the line, which is just as Id miss
Jamie of the highway 20 $14.33 from somewhere in the USA.
Well, Miss Jane, you have been? Yes, yes.
I see what we got here. This is a Valentine's Day call out to
miss Jamie. Oh, from someone going through is awkward. And so
we don't know. Miss Jamie, you know who it is.
We hope we have a karma. Karma karma. All right, well, that
makes Miss Jamie and Associate Executive Producer, Episode
1216. And we thank our executive producers and Associate
Executive Producers alike. We'd like to thank them at the
beginning of more or less the beginning of the show, kind of
like Hollywood does, you know you open up the show. And then
you have your credits. And these are the people the movers and
shakers that make it happen. But we have a lot of other people to
thank, who made this episode possible. Do that in our second
segment. For now, please accept your titles and our gratitude.
Thank you for your courage. And if you'd like to participate in
the grand experiment known as the no agenda value for value
network, very simple for our Sunday show. All you need to do
is go to vorak.org/and a. And with that you're up to speed on
everything. You'll look so smart. We're talking about
China. Our formula
is this. We go out we get people in the mouth
I have a couple of randos
Oh, a Rando. I got a
couple of randos for it. I got three quick randos. This is a
new term I guess. The first Rando is the latest diet.
Commercial from the diet company, Jenny Craig. And Jenny
Craig is like Nutrisystem like Weight Watchers. It's crappy
food in the right portions. And I think it's really portion
control that they send to you. It's a food company and they
only send you enough to kind of like starving you out. And if
you just if you don't cheat, then of course you will lose
weight. But they've added a twist to it. Oh yeah,
I just got my results back and
I literally am so excited. Getting your DNA tested
gives you just extra advantage. It creates a very specific plan
for
you who doesn't want to get the edge and figure out how we do
this by the plan and get a free DNA weight loss kit.
DNA weight loss kit? Well, I had no idea that DNA was there so
advanced. Do you look at the fine print? Of course if nothing
does nothing, there's no DNA gene that says oh, well if you
only cut back on that, so yeah, that would be the message Hey,
eat the food did your last cause you got the fatso gene. I don't
know what that is about. Maybe it's just trendy. But they are
the DNA weight loss kit please.
Well if you're gonna play short when I gotta show when to this
is the unfortunately sending the letter case is crying that we
didn't play this but we should feel it never heard it. This is
Joe Biden calling somebody a dog faced pony soldier
number one. I was a Democratic caucus. Member caucus. No, you
haven't. You're aligned dog faced pony soldier.
Very bizarre.
But I come to you He took that from a John Wayne movie
apparently. Oh, there's no, there's no evidence that John
Wayne I've never heard this old story from years ago. I've
never heard John Wayne say that. I wonder what movie? No, I think
he did.
Biden is just acting silly. It's funny when he says something
like that. It's so well miked. Yeah, good point.
Good point. Here's another Rando, which is good news for
you. And for me as it's good news for the President. A big
relief for tall men height may protect against dementia, taller
young men have a lower risk of the memory roaming disorder.
researchers examined intelligence test scores,
environmental and genetic factors as well as height
through a lifetime. II life reports a study of more than
666,000 men over 20 years revealed the benefit height
offers when it comes to a diagnosis of dementia. Finding
ways to predict the risk of dementia may give doctors a hint
at earlier diagnosis and interventions to aid patients.
Oh, there you go. Oh, shit. Let me hold on to my dream. Okay. I
don't want I
got an ISO from a Amy goodness Bloomberg guy so I could never
had the clip wasn't good enough to use but I thought the ISO
might be good.
I can't find it. Oh, I got it. I got it. Bloomberg
is racist.
Ooh, ooh, close.
Let me close. I mean, it's, uh, now I have to beat it. Well,
well, I'm gonna play it again because I'd like to compare. We
have we have competing ISOs ISO number one, Bloomberg is racist.
So number two, I'm the President of the United States. I have all
of the power.
Okay, here's the way I see. Okay. The Bernie clip is lots
better. I mean, it's one of the great
it's a classic ISO a class. It's a CLI so.
So that is a CLI so and so you can keep that in abeyance.
Because it's always good. You go with the word
abeyance somehow. Does that mean I'm screwed on this deal? It's
you
know, you could do what you want. You do the ISOs is your
call? Is your like your they're mad men finishing the show. And
then you punch up the ISO. It just seems to me that you can
use that a lot. Yeah.
Okay. So when I don't have it, so. Okay. I see your logic and
meeting. Use it today. Meeting adjourn Meeting adjourned. This
is the end of show is
Bloomberg is racist. It's beautiful. Beautiful.
The final Rando shorty Rando, for you from Sandy Ocasio
Cortez. It's
funny you asked this because I was just reading today about how
Milton Keynes a famous.
You were yapping through it. I'll play it again. So you can
listen. It's funny you asked this because I was just reading
today about how Milton Keynes a famous day predicted that by
2030, US GDP would grow six to eight times what it is, which
would allow for everyday people to work 15 hours a week.
Love Milton Keynes read all his books. She did not be Maynard
Keynes. Keynes, is that not to
Maynard Keynes and Milton Friedman.
Yes, she's well, she just got Scott Adams, by the way thought
this was. This was great that this only solidifies her
position as future president.
As he did say that he should be sharing
his drugs. And I have a another text message from the President
from the wind red outfit. I want to remind everyone, every
button, every button, everyone. The Democrats have shared blue
act blue, which is a central clearinghouse for a lot of
things. But when you donate money to the chip in when it
says chip in, you're not sending it to the candidate you're not
you're sending it to the blue organization, and they then
distribute it to the DNC. There's all these different ways
it has to be counted properly. You didn't know that? Of course.
Of course she did. But Trump
believes it would be done. In other words, they're fooling the
public,
Trump set up a very similar system called when read and it
is run by Jared Kushner and an ex, a buddy of Jared Kushner.
Jared Kushner is of course, I despise this whole concept
because they they're skimming money off the top. That just I
don't like it at all. But they must be doing something that's
working for them because as you know, they have been texting me
that I somehow my membership has expired, never signed up for a
membership. And this came in. You are being officially
notified. Your deadline just support President Trump with fun
If X matching funds has been extended for four more hours act
now
5x 5x. And if you click throughs, doing the matching,
that don't tell you that if you ask for a refund, you get 5x
back.
I have no idea. But it's
shameful.
And I keep showing them to the keeper. You know who's in this
business? She says, I can't believe they're doing that must
be working. Maybe we're not maybe we're not doing it right.
Maybe we should try that. Hey, listen, you Dix said Man, I know
Will it work? I'm
here read the newsletter.
All right, yes.
You go and have that all right. Oh, man, and get warm when I do
that stuff. Oh, this was this was kind of interesting. I got a
note and got a note to follow up with this clip. If you recall.
We have a mole inside a prominent lobbying firm in
Washington, DC, who gave us information about Lev Parnas.
And his yes, that Rudy Giuliani was actually working as a
consultant for LifeLock. And he was hired to recreate that model
for left Parnas with his was it bankrupt guarantee, whatever
that company and everyone laughed about it. We're the only
ones who really had the backstory on it. Not that it's
that interesting. But this is a little more interesting. This
happened. Just a few days ago,
I'm here to announce the indictment of Chinese military
hackers, specifically for members of the Chinese People's
Liberation Army, for breaking into the computer systems of the
credit reporting agency Equifax, and for stealing the sensitive
personal information of nearly half of all American citizens.
And also Equifax is hard earned intellectual property.
Now, do we recall what happened with Equifax? Do you? Yeah,
okay. It's
the biggest hack ever. They stole everybody's data. Yeah.
But what was it was an interesting situation. We knew
it had to be the Chinese because it would never showed up on the
dark web for sale, because it seems like a mailing list anyone
would you want a copy of but what
was the reason for the hack?
I don't remember what to do the reason for that? Yes. What do
you mean the reason?
I'm sorry, the The good point. The hack was done through a
machine that was compromised because they had not applied
security patches. Do you remember that? Vaguely okay. So
that when that was
generally how most of these hacks that
was spelled out broadly. So here's what our mole in the
lobbying industry says Adam, our colleagues in the lobbying
business specifically at Akin Gump, drummed up this indictment
at DOJ on behalf of Equifax. So Equifax, his insurance company
would be forced to pay for the losses from the class action
lawsuit, the whole thing he says is fake. And I believe it. I
totally believe that. Let's not talk about the mistakes we made.
Let's not talk about how we allowed your information to be
hacked. Let's blame it on some. I'll use that word again. randos
in China.
Yeah, that's what they both like. It's like the indictments
that Muller did against the randos. In Russia. Exactly.
Yeah, you can do that. That's a new gimmick. Yeah.
I just like how how that works in DC with the lobbying firms.
didn't get anything done. As long as you got money. China,
Saudi Arabia. Oh, these guys. Fantastic.
To get their insurance. Well, the insurance company should
check into this as if it's a scam. That sounds like but it
probably was taken to China.
I mean, that's very possible. Sure. Sure. Very possibility.
I have a clip of your buddy. Joy. Random. Am joy.
My buddy. Alright, thanks. I feel good. Your buddy. She's not
my buddy.
I want you to try to decipher this. This is a discussion with
her and some psycho writer talking about Trump and the
media. And I don't know, I listened to this. I clipped it
and I couldn't even clip it down any shorter than this. And I
just want you to tell me what they're what they're saying come
to
the meeting have struggled to appear balanced and objective in
an era when the President behaves in shocking and
unprecedented ways. They need to find the language to convey
vividly the unhinged anger and obsession with representation.
I can't even understand her.
Well, what she's saying is the media is trying to find some way
to talk about Trump's mental illness I think That's what
she's saying.
The unhinged anger and obsession with retribution that Trump
occasionally unleashes in public before I'm gonna, I'm gonna get
Robin, but I want to go back to hopefully your crop is better.
Dave, I'm gonna get back to you first really quickly, because
No, that's okay. No, I wanted you to have a moment to, you
know, to take some water. But the media is still under this,
you know, this, this self policing that says that, that
that saved union, which was very unusual. I mean, that took place
in the gallery in the house gallery, a sort of sacred
political space. And it really was show business. And the media
still struggled to fit it into the norm. So
they're talking about the State of the Union. There was to show
booths all show business no ABS had absolutely no, no content,
just show business or marketing. You might call it
of what they expect. But even in Fox News, The Daily Beast has a
piece now. They said an internal document. Even Fox News
understands what this is internal, even if they don't say
it outright. In documents obtained by The Daily Beast
foxes research team advises colleagues to be wary of
disinformation from several Trump boosting on irregulars,
including Rudy Giuliani. So internally, even there, some
people feel a little queasy. But in the writ large, Trump knows
that the rest of the media is going to cover him as if he's a
normal president no matter what he does.
Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, we all talk a lot about Fox News
being the platform that elevates Donald Trump, but I think,
unfortunately, I think it's the quote unquote, mainstream media
that actually does the biggest service to this President. If
you look at the headline that was after his Eastern
performance than in the New York Times, it talks about, you know,
President Hales acquittal, no, he didn't hail his acquittal.
He, you know, raged for an hour. And I think it's sort of neutral
language, this sort of decorum and politeness that has governed
newspaper journalism for the last 100 years. That that the
office of the presidency is afforded. It just doesn't work
with Donald Trump. And I don't unfortunately, I don't have the
answer. I'm, you know, I'm a reporter. I'm a writer. So I
struggle myself with these issues. But I know the end
result is that the public is not having an accurate view of who
this President is, oh,
I know this, this exact
right. And by the way, 100 years of decorum, have you ever looked
at those papers from the 20s and 30s,
that they were outrageous yellow journalism kidding me? What
these people think they're so above everything. It's amazing
to me
that this is a problem. This has been a problem with journalism.
Some British guy described it best when he says for some
reason American journalists think it's a profession when we
think it's a trade.
Thank you. That's let's find out who said that. He's making a lot
of sense so long as anybody could just go online and see and
anyone who's interested to see this hour long rage, no, it was
actually if Trump talked during that one hour or he was thanking
his team and setting everybody up for moving forward after the
impeachment if he talked like that all the time. We'd be like
Oh, that's pretty presidential.
Yeah, it was anything but a rage it was not
a rage at all. But that so if you're wondering why you're
having troubles you
I say what you are I am that oh well brain Yeah, but just
as being self made you cope to the health
that phrase Yeah, applies.
Jack Jack Hughes Matthews in French. Yeah. Yeah. But it's if
you're wondering why people aren't getting the message
because you're not being truthful it wasn't a rage. I
mean, with rage I don't know maybe I'm misunderstanding the
the definition of the football the word but there was no rage
there but they the television version was take him saying
bullshit take him saying that did pop up up up up put it all
together. Whoa, what a rage.
Yeah. Well, meanwhile on the other news, on the other news,
channel them one of the one I use for balance. So I can hear
the socialist point of view.
Yes, democracy socialist point of view of democracy.
I would expected this and here I meant I finally get it. This is
Amy Goodman. on Democracy Now smearing Pete Buttigieg
Oh, look at Pete Buttigieg. His record on policing and racial
justice following his second place finish in New Hampshire
last night. The former mayor of South Bend Indiana has surprised
many with a strong showings in Iowa and New Hampshire, two of
the country's whitest states. But as the race moves on now to
Nevada and South Carolina, Buda judge continues to pull
extremely low with African American voters his own former
constituents are condemning his treatment of the black community
in South of Ben during his time as mayor calling out systemic
racism in the police force during Buttigieg. His tenure as
mayor from 2012 to 18, black residents were 4.3 times more
likely to be arrested for possessing marijuana than white
people. At last week's presidential debate, ABC News
moderator Lindsey Davis question Pete Buttigieg about the rise in
arrests of black people under his administration? Well, the
reality
is on my watch, drug arrests in South Bend were lower than the
national average, the overall rate was lower.
There was an increase the year before you were in office, it
was lower once you became in office in 2012. That number went
up in 2018. The last number of year that we have record for
that number was still up.
And one of the strategies that our community adopted was to
target when they were cases where there was gun violence and
gang violence, which was slaughtering so many in our
community.
Well, for more we go to Chicago, where we're joined by Henry
Davis, Jr, a South Bend city council member since 2008.
Welcome to Democracy Now. Henry Davis, Jr. Can you talk about
your experience as a city council member with your mayor
at the time he my
time working with Mayor Buda judge was, at best was
contagious. It was very difficult to get across to him
and also to his administration how African Americans were
living in South Bend. And in some of the issues that
confronted him on a daily basis. You're talking about double
digit, double digit unemployment, you're talking
about a very high poverty rate over over 40%. You're talking
about high crime, you're talking about school Shakedown closing
in even some of those policies when it came to 1000. Houses
1000 days program.
Don't look at that. Don't look at that. Look at me. I have a
husband. The more I
think oh, by the way that went on for another 15 minutes. Oh,
of
course it did. Yeah. Quick OTG husband, little OTG quickie
OTG going on teaching guy the guy.
I can't believe all this mess happened. And I will be
teaching again, I have an idea for
an app. It's called no computers, no gadgets, no
gizmos.
Little assist from Larry David there. This was a story that we
just didn't get to. There's a number of clips, I'd like to get
play today because we didn't get to them. This is this
accentuates why the OTG lifestyle is important. And I
want to reiterate, because it's very, the name, of course is
bad. Because people think off the grid means you don't want to
be connected, you don't want be hacked. Now, it's not really
that it's you don't want to be making data that other people
can easily aggregate and use against you when I say against
you if they pretend that they're helping you. With ad with ads
that you want content you already you love. But of course
your data is then stored in databases, it's sold everywhere.
And as we have said many times, the government doesn't actually
have to put any spying programs in place because it's being done
for them. With your willing participation.
This is how it works. You get this pop up and agree to let an
app use your location. A travel app may want it to suggest
nearby hotels or airports.
And I think I may have played them out of order. Make sure
this is how it was you get this pop up and agree to let an app
use your location. A travel app may want it to suggest nearby
hotels or airports rideshare apps wants to know where to pick
you up. But often those apps are also sharing your location with
marketers who are using it for targeted ads, research, analysis
and even reselling it. But what we found is that in some cases
that consumer data is being resold to companies that buy and
sell data for the government. according to people familiar
with the matter and documents reviewed by the Wall Street
Journal. The Trump administration has purchased a
database that maps the movements of millions of cell phones in
the US and he's using it for immigration and border
enforcement. In 2018. data tracking contributed to the
discovery of a drug smuggling tunnel according to people with
knowledge of the operation.
Sources described this one case down in Arizona a border town
called San Luis where a man had allegedly built a tunnel between
his property which was an abandoned KFC restaurant and the
Mexican border. Please say that smugglers were using this
tunnel. But the interesting thing is when this person was
arrested, none of the court records indicate that they found
this tunnel based on cell records. This data was showing
cellphones moving from one side of the border to the other and
investigators surmise there must be an illegal tunnelbear and
began further investigations that led to the arrest of this
person
So what's interesting about this story is that it is truly the
app. So what's app all it's the apps that are handing out your
your location, sometimes very precise, even if you have
location sharing turned off.
It's unbelievable. i By the way, I have a backup clip for what
you just played. It's the tracking immigrants via cell
phone.
Yeah, that's that's pretty much the same story. I guess.
Wall Street Journal reports Immigration and Customs
Enforcement or ice and Customs Border Protection, or CBP has
spent over $1.2 million to access cell phone location data
to track and arrest undocumented immigrants. The Homeland
Security Department reportedly began purchasing cell phone
location data in 2017 from a Virginia based company called
ven tail. The data is drawn from cell phone apps like games and
weather apps that ask the user's permission to access their
location.
And the Customs and Border Patrol is very adamant about one
thing and this is why the OTG lifestyle is important. In a
statement to the Wall Street Journal, a CBP spokesman said
quote while CBP is being provided access to location
information, it is important to note that such information does
not include cellular phone tower data is not ingested in bulk,
and does not include the individual user's identity,
because that would be completely illegal. But the point is, they
don't have to do that. However, if they want to track good old
crackpot, they'd have to have cell location data because I
have a flip phone that pretty much does nothing. It has no
apps, zero apps and the apps it has a browser. So I'd have to be
careful. But I don't really use that. I mean, unless it's an
emergency. But it's the apps, it's anything that's free, put a
big suspicious suspicious tag next to it. Because that's,
that's how they make their money. They make money on
selling that exact data to ultimately the government.
I have to bid. I've been bitching about this for over a
decade. And it's because when you go on YouTube, you got some
app. And I don't even like the word. And you load it say we'd
like a bike agreeing to our terms. You've also given up the
everything, your notebook, your email, your camera can be turned
on the mic can be turned on, they can use your contact, they
can download your contact list. And I'm thinking this is like a
flashlight, and they want my contact list. To agree to any of
this. The flashlight
was the best spy app ever. Remember that first came out
everyone was downloading it that guy got so rich. Like, look at
all this a bonanza. So all we're here to do is to warn you that
this is just a very, very bad idea. And there's no reason for
you to you know what? So here's what I like about the Alcatel go
flip three is it's a basic phone, I can I can text, I can
receive a call. It's great for calling. By the way, it's a
very, very pleasant phone to speak on. And in a pinch, I can
get mail and I could do something on the web, but it's
really in a pinch. It's very slow. It's it's laborious, but
you want that you don't want to be distracted. That's another
big part of it. But there's really no way to track me
however the beauty of it is that it can also function as a Wi Fi
hotspot. That's what's really cool about it because if you are
in that undeniable it happens oh my god, I absolutely need to get
online to do something. You can use that with your laptop or no
I have the surface Go Pro. The Surface Pro goes surfers go
whatever the hell it's called, you know, 10 incher, which
marketing which only has Linux on it. But I can get online I
can do whatever I want that's that just don't create as much
data. Stop creating data because then it'll only be used against
you. Because we haven't heard much about the war on cash it
lately. Although it does crop up from time to time Australia is
now on deck with a new cash ban bill.
Australians could face two year jail sentence fines of up to
$25,000 under proposed laws that limit the use of some cash
transactions to $10,000. There are calls for the government to
withdraw the proposal which was announced in the budget fight
the black economy. John Adams and independent economist has
come out against the change. I
have to characterize this on many occasions as the greatest
attack on economic freedom and liberty in this country in the
last two or three decades. Hey, I'm in this law is quite
serious. I mean, I don't think in a free society, government
should have any role in telling people what to do with their own
money, whether it's a cash transaction or a non cash
transaction. So the government has claimed that this proposal
is about the black economy. And obviously, they had the black
economy taskforce that they established in 2016. This is
where this $10,000 Cash Transaction being comes from
now, the government has not provided any evidence that this
ban will actually work in terms of reducing the black economy.
And one of the countries he cites is Sweden, with in Sweden,
they're virtually eliminated cash, and yet, they still have a
flourishing black economies. So the way the law is constructed
at the moment, basically, if it's either business to business
or individual to business, so if an individual was to engage in a
$10,000, cash transaction above $10,000, that is illegal under
this proposed law. So for example, if you went to a car
yard, if you went to a furniture shop, if you went to a jewelry
store, and you propose to pay cash, for a product or service,
under this law, individual to business or business to business
that is illegal. Now, the way the government has proposed this
law is there's a bill for parliament. And there's a range
of proposed regulation, the bill makes everything legal. And the
regulation has certain exemptions. Now, one of the
exemptions in the regulation is individual to individual
transactions. So for example, if you had a piece of furniture for
$15,000, and I wanted to buy that off, you have a one off,
we're not enterprises, that the government says is legal under
this law. But given that this exemption is in a regulation,
that the assistant treasurer at any at any time can remove these
exemptions make these exemptions illegal without the scrutiny of
Parliament.
I love that this guy, this report went into depth because
most of the headlines, just scream, you know. But the
details are even more interesting. Where there's the
law says we'll have a regulation for what amount you can spend at
a business or a car yard. Then of car dealers or they got car
yards. And that limit is set at 10,000. But they can lower that
because it's just a regulation. That's that's the real creepy
part
about Yeah, they can lower it to 1000. Yeah. Which they would do.
Why wouldn't you? You're not gonna raise it?
No. That's just like, what do you call it? VAT Value Added
Tax. Same deal.
Yeah, you put that in place. It's there forever. Danny blue
suggested should you should throw a shoe at him.
It can only go up.
So I picked up a couple of clips from Trump's New Hampshire
speeches. He's he's doing a new act.
Oh, yes. Oh, no, I missed it. They know they no longer play it
on Fox. And Fox. Oh, my God. Fox is just boring. Now they're
getting really bad. I can't watch
them run by a bunch of people that didn't don't even like
Trump. Well,
you know that they have internal memos. That from the new
episode, the wait, Fox News works Fox News Channel, they
have a news desk. And the head of the news desk put out a memo
that was leaked. That said just so you know, you shouldn't
really take anything that is on Hannity or judge Jeanine show,
or Ingraham because the people, the guests they have on our
known disinformation people from their own organization.
That was a clip we played earlier in the show. Now, he's
changing his bit a little bit. He's got some good, got a couple
of nice new bits. But he did have this little crossover thing
and they're encouraging people to by not encouraging him to
cross over and this is the Trump stumps in New Hampshire
suggesting a crossover where you can vote for the other party
done great. This has been an incredible success state where
the people are great. Just great people. And we hear that there
could be because you have crossovers in primaries, don't
you? So I hear a lot of Republicans tomorrow will vote
for the weakest candidate possible of the Democrats. Is
that make sense? You people wouldn't do that. My only
problem is I'm trying to figure out who is their weakest
candidate. I think they're all weak.
That's, I mean, it's not a huge laugh, but it's a it's an
interesting bit of stigma. I like it
a better bit which he's added to his act. Is this Trump away he
goes on about Pelosi.
On Tuesday, I delivered my address on the State of the
Union. And I had somebody behind me who was mumbling terribly
fumbling mumbling mumbling distracting very distracting
Well, I was very distracting. I'm speaking and a woman is
mumbling terribly behind me angry there was a little anger
back there with one should be angry. Not them were the ones
that should be angry, but we proudly declared that we are in
the midst of the Great American comeback. Our country is
stronger today than ever before.
I had not heard this. Like that was that word mumbling? That
reminds me of the time I flew on the Concorde. And I was very
excited. And I was like, oh my god, I'm gonna fly in the
Concorde and then go to flight. It was for the something at
Wembley Arena. I can't remember exactly what MTV flew me
Concorde because I had to be there right away, whatever was
going on. Good. And this was New York to London. And I was super
excited. And Liza Minnelli's sitting behind me completely
drunk and ruined the whole damn ride. She was kicking against my
chair, just talking loud. Yeah, it was a big bummer. Anyway,
that's for my book, you
turn around and tell her to knock it off?
No, I was too impressed. And like she's what Liza Minnelli
I'll just keep this better to have the story than to have some
international raucous because, you know, a drunk Liza is
something gotta be very careful of. And I would think, yeah.
Well, while you're at it, is there anything else from Trump
that during the speech? No, that's
all I got from that speech. And it is worth watching his new act
is slightly different. Well, it has been one before New
Hampshire where I watched some of that one. And that was just,
that was his old material. And it was about an hour and 15 hour
20. This new Act, which I think is mostly new, is only an hour,
he's because he's cutting it down. He's
cutting it down, right
down. I think this was like 55 minutes. Hmm. So but he builds
you know, he starts his gotta basic act, kick in any ads and
ads? Bits. That's
good. Just one last story, since all of the stuff that we're
talking about is so irrelevant when it comes to how bad things
really are. And that, you know, this is actually the biggest
failing on the media, not the newspapers who published it,
because I think they it's good that they did that. And if you
read through it all, then you you feel very sad about the
state of our what we're doing, how we've positioned ourselves
for decades. And when I say ourselves, the United States.
This, of course, is the Afghan papers, and to get any kind of
in depth reporting on it. I got this from Voice of America,
which is the propaganda arm of the United States,
John Sopko, Inspector General of an independent government
watchdog created by Congress to combat waste and abuse in the US
reconstruction effort in Afghanistan, Truman rolled the
House Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday, a persistent
incentive to lie about the progress on the ground and hurt
us efforts in Afghanistan. You create
from the bottom up and incentive because of short timeframes.
You're there for six months, nine months or a year to show
success that gets reported up the chain. And before you know
it the President is talking about a success. That doesn't
exist. And I think that's a good issue to look at not whether
there was wine. But
why the hearing
comes one month after a Washington Post report that
government officials misled the public about us gains in
Afghanistan for years, and hid evidence that the war had become
unwinnable. The newspaper cited sea guard documents as evidence,
but Richard Boucher, who served as Assistant Secretary of State
for South Asia during the Bush administration says there was no
deliberate deception. I think all
of us tried to tell the truth in terms of what was going on in
the war, the difficulties that we were facing the difficulties
of getting things done in a chaotic situation like the one
in Afghanistan,
despite notable failures, experts say a rash exit from the
region could lead to deadly or outcomes.
We're at a stage where we know we want to withdraw, but we want
to do it responsibly. And that requires a negotiation process.
We are so Trump
administration has been negotiating a peace agreement
with the Taliban to finally bring the war to an end
just so disheartening, because it's not like we don't know this
but that is out there and you know where the where the real
hearings where we really pin in people up Hey, man, this is
bullcrap.
Well, this is again this is like we took what talked about 10
minutes ago he said you can start a value added tax. You
can't back off on these things. You go into one of these stupid
wars does not really a war because there's nobody's
attacking us. But you go in there to police the place and
you can't get out.
Yeah, while you can, but the system will let you get out.
No, the whole system is designed for you to be stuck there
forever.
Yeah. disheartening is the only that's the only thing I can say.
Well, don't feel good about it.
Do reasonably good word. I got a couple of just one more news
item if you want to. Yeah. I want to get out of the way.
Well, let's do one and then we gotta move.
Gotta move. Gotta move, but do it live.
Yes. All right. What are we?

separate files of people going Yep, with a little message at
the meetup and like, hey, Carrie, why don't you put it

That's right. No agenda meet ups.com and a new item at the
end of the show.
Let's see what's in John's clothes.
We had the Microsoft Bob Frisbee. I'm wondering if
there's another item that you are putting up for auction or
sale or otherwise,
I was thinking about it. I don't have anything.
Wow, this is a dead item.
Well, all I have to do is take one look around yeah. I do have
a couple of things actually.
Well, you sound woefully unprepared.
Well, I'm unprepared. Yes, I am. I thought about this earlier.
And I'm unprepared. I can't I just okay, well. Thanks, man. I
have to
skip. We'll do it. We'll do it for the next show.
Yeah, how I got not too many things to choose from this the
problem? I didn't get any bites on the Frisbee.
What no one did wanted to drop 100 bucks on hundo on a hundo on
a virgin Microsoft Bob MyKad.
Addition, Bob.
Can you haggle over the price? Because if you're just saying
100 flat, best price of two.
Yeah, well, you're gonna have two people who don't see the
value in these things. But okay,
you need to put up a cosmic weenie page. Somewhere in the
show
notes. Bad idea. I think I have to do that.
There you go. I have just one more little thing. Unless you
have something that you'd like to do.
I have actually three four clips, which are news clips,
which I promised everybody we'd be trying to keep people up at
the World News. Yes,
let's do that first. Good idea.
So let's start with the Irish vote. Let's get that out of the
way. Oh, yeah. This was very this. So typical
Irish voters went to the polls on Saturday in an election. that
could remove t shirt Leo Varadkar from power amid a surge
by left wing Shin Fein for Radka cast his ballot in Dublin after
campaigning on his own diplomatic successes on Brexit,
helping prevent a hard border on the island. But the strategy
appears to have fallen flat and mid domestic issues such as
healthcare and housing, which have seen a swing by voters
towards Shin Fein. Party leader Mary Lou McDonald urged people
to vote for change as she also went to the polling booth in
Dublin.
today. It's very important to today's the day that the people
are in charge, and every single vote counts. People have told us
throughout this campaign, that they want change, that they want
to change in representation and they want to change in
government. So I'm saying to people please come out today and
vote for that change.
But McDonald's party is unlikely to enter government as it has
put forward to few candidates. Opinion polls points to the main
opposition party fina fall winning most seats and forming a
coalition or minority government led by me home Martin who voted
Saturday morning in Cork. Its policies on the economy and post
Brexit Ireland are broadly similar to those of RAD kids
center right fina Gale, both fina fall and fina Gale insist
they will not govern with Sinn Fein after polls close at 10pm.
local time. Counting will begin at nine o'clock on Sunday
morning.
So does this mean we'll have bombs going off again? Or is it
might just imagine the same people. Well, hey, just as a
quick aside, Tuesday, August 3 2010. blog entry on the
divorce uncensored blog with a picture valuable frisbee found
in closet. Yes and unused Microsoft Bob frisbee was buried
in one of my closets. Wow, priceless collectible? Yes.
Yeah, you're recycling. What? You're recycling?
Me. I'm recycling. I still have the Frisbee. I didn't recycle it
yet. The story is what you're saying. And
it's the same picture you sent me of this thing sitting on the
mantelpiece next to a Christmas bear. Dude, what is this
collectible Christmas bear in the picture? What is that? No.
What do you even have that in your home? What is that thing?
I don't know. That was from 10 years ago.
And a horse. Last horse? I want to be in your client. So I want
to be in your closet. So bad.
Bet you do. You're kind of in the closet. Oh. What are you
supposed to do? somebody throws you a softball. So here we go.
Piers Robinson. He's discussing Syria.
Piers Robinson.
Dobby story is about the investigation of an alleged
chemical weapon attack and doom it and Syria in 2018, which was
controversial at the time because France and America in
the UK bombed Syria within about six days of that alleged event
having occurred
this is new somewhere after we've ripped this all apart
front to back. And this is now New, still the premise for the
event to
hold on. Exactly what happened is we of course, knew spotted
this a mile away. But and it's been discussed by academics. And
now it's official. Not even fully official. It's just some
guy who quit one of these organizations and kind of made
it quasi official that the whole thing was a scam. Like we said,
aw story is about the investigation of an alleged
chemical weapon attack and doom it and Syria in 2018, which was
controversial at the time because France and America in
the UK bombed Syria within about six or seven days of that
alleged event having occurred and the premise for the event
was that Assad winning the war, gassed his own people had
dropped the helicopter drop to get chlorine gas cylinders and
killed sort of dozens of people in Duma. And that was the
original event which GOP CW went out to investigate what we know
now after leaks, people from moving the OPC W talking is that
the team who initially deployed to Duma, then who did the
investigation that their first interim report was very clearly
indicating that there were problems with the idea that the
Syrian government had dropped cylinders, that there were
indications that staging had occurred. And they were already
pretty much shut out of the process after the interim
report, which is what really started to cause I think,
dissent within amongst some of the team. And then ultimately,
the final OPC W report came out suggesting very strongly that
the Syrian government had dropped chlorine gas cylinders.
And at that point, shortly after that an engineering report was
leaked, which suggests the opposite. And what we know now
from all The leaks and what we know now from the courage
Foundation, Powell, for example, is that there are serious
problems with the final OPC W report, but the science does not
back up the claims that are being made. And we know that
from the leaked documents, we can see that from the
information coming out from OPC W scientists, and most
spectacularly We saw it with Ian Henderson addressing the UN
Security Council where he made very clear that he had been
sidelined and he made very clear that the engineering assessment
indicated that staging had occurred.
Now it's so odd that a podcast that rips apart mainstream media
Oh media, really whether it's radio, print or television, of
course a lot that this is one of the few places you can actually
hear a bunch of stories that you that are kind of interesting and
of global importance. I'm glad we do this, because where else
would you get this news? I mean, you have to be monitoring
everything you don't get. I watched sky and I watch RT and
AlJazeera and you pick up stuff from time to time, but they're
also headline driven. To all headline driven.
Yeah. Claire, that's what makes this show so great.
Oh, yeah. Now I remember. Okay.
Exactly. I got another one last short. This is shorter. Little
news item. This is a Sudan story. This is the update on
Sudan news.
Sudan's longtime leader Omar Al Bashir will be handed over to
the International Criminal Court in The Hate to face charges of
genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. He's accused
of leaving the Sudanese government's scorched earth
campaign and therefore we're up to 300,000 people were killed,
and more than 2.5 million people were forced from their homes.
Bashir was forced from power last April amidst massive anti
government protests in Sudan.
Clooney did his job as right at the Sentinel project. Finally,
good work, George.
Now I have somebody that's not international news. This is a
company. It's a clip that was produced by this operation. I'm
going to ask you because I was misled. Are you familiar with
what what's referred to as a maker?
A maker?
Yeah. Doesn't it maker like conference maker?
Yeah. From the MakerSpace. So people use 3d printers and stuff
like that. Yeah, that's a maker. Yeah.
Well, you're completely misled what?
We women, we're not going nowhere.
I was part of a small team that lenses and SUV size robot on the
surface of Mars
with the therapy. I started to understand what made me tick and
I took accountability.
We are driven changemakers fed up with the world around us and
we're ready to take action no matter what. You want to be
proactive. Don't look away. No one is invisible. When we demand
to be seen. I love my body. It's societies that is uncomfortable
with my body.
God, we must be pretty amazing to have overcome all of this
shit. I think it's important that we have these kinds of
conversations. Hopefully you leave here
inspired to do something. What is this? What I don't understand
at all what that was?
This was makers 2020 Yeah. And if you look at the thing it is
the about the empowerment of women and to push forward the
new feminist something or other well they've hijacked the term
you tell me about it that's what I said
they hijacked the term that's not okay.
Nobody doing 3d printing that guy at the end was John Legend
Hello. They've only two men that they showed they've highlighted
that one. The guy in the middle was some guy talking about how
he had to go see a shrink so he can become a cuckold. I guess
I'm not sure what he was after there.
Wow. Let me the beginning when I heard at the beginning it made
me think think of something else. It made me think of could
have could have
been an auction price. They use the term makers. It doesn't have
what schedule? Are they? Is this a derivative of homemakers?
Hello. It's kind of a wrong old fashioned term that should be
issued. Yeah. So the home makers are what's makers, makers. I
thought the same thing where's the 3d printers
very odd. On Fox, Tucker Carlson had a very slow day or whatever
they were expecting Trump despite I don't know what it
was. So he pulled out an old interview we did with Adam
Carolla. And it was about homelessness, and it was so good
what Adam Carolla said and it was it was a long segments, I
chopped it up down and into three shorter pieces. And it was
it was an eye opener, I sat this And holy crap. He's really
saying some smart stuff here because what he's identified as
the problem in Los Angeles, I'll I'll just say California, is
exactly what's going on here in Austin. It's exactly the same.
It was eye open, I really appreciate what he said. It's it
is completely in three parts. So firstly explains why the
government and local city government or state government
doesn't care about the homeless. I mean, if I asked you just
offhand, why do city and state governments not care really
don't care about the homeless,
I have no idea.
California and LA, especially sort of broken the citizens into
two groups, there's the groups that have money, and then
they're the empty bags, they don't have any money. So if you
have money and you're in that group, and you pay your taxes,
you will get pulled over and get a ticket for not having a front
license plate. But if you're homeless, or you're illegal, or
you're not in the system, then you're essentially an empty bag,
and they can't get money out of you. In fact, they cost the city
money. So anything that cost the city money, they're not that
good at but they're really good at parking enforcement. And
they're really good at permits and building permits and fines
and anything where there's money to be had. They're super
efficient at it, and homeless don't have checking accounts. So
there's nothing in it for that. They've really divided the
entire city into those who pay and those who can't. And if you
can't, they're not that interesting.
I think this is so true. And it really hit home for me just the
other day. The keeper and I were coming back from we had lunch
together and we're driving back on South Pleasant Valley Road
which is a 35 zones. No it's it's it's lunchtime, there's no
one on the road. And I'm driving and I and I look in my rearview
mirror, and I see a car behind me like clothes kind of riding
me and so I pull over to the side immediately was undercover.
You know the guy your wife stop you right by our here we were
speeding, but 50 feet up there squeegee guys, intense on the
median. So now I have to say I didn't get a ticket. I got a
warning. But it was that that very moment, I felt the same as
like, look at what you're doing, man. There's no one on the road.
Yeah, okay. I was going a little fast. No, I like, Okay, I was
over 40 Sorry. But look at the legality taking place, right.
And I'm not blaming the cop, obviously, because the COP is
not even allowed to do anything. But that's the stuff that drives
people crazy. I thought it was an interesting observation that
these governments don't give a shit. If they can't get money
out of you. They don't care.
Well, it still begs the question. Why are they allowed
to have these encampments? It cost the city money too, because
somebody's got to clean this stuff up eventually. Well,
it's something what is going on? Is that a trash van back out the
garbage truck? Well, that comes up in the second part of the
story. And and this is a very valid question, although it's
not. It's not addressed in what Corolla says. But remember, this
this camping is, all these liberal cities have allowed
camping because of a lawsuit that is in the Ninth Circuit.
It's in Idaho, that removing homeless people who are camping
is quote, unconstitutional because it is against it because
it is cruel and unusual punishment. This is what the
woke stirs have come up with. And so for that reason, because
it's now in court, Idaho said, well, well, we can't we can't
kick these people out because you know, it's constitutional
and all the woke counties Austin literally says the same thing.
Well, you know, there's there's there's a case before the ninth
circuit we can't really doing anything until that's resolved
because, you know, just kicking people out of their homes where
they're camping, that's cruel and unusual punishment because
you're ruining their home. That's that's how they get away
with allowing it. And of course, the real
No, that's not the question. The question is why? I mean, they do
that's why they get away with a lie you but why do they want
these encampments? Because they obviously were they wouldn't No,
no, they don't. Here's Karolos vision on that well, what
changed is we started to mistake discipline and rule of law for
being mean, this sort of like, don't be mean don't take that
homeless guy, why are you making him go here? Or Why are you
arresting him? Or why are you incarcerating him? Or why are
you putting him in this facility? La has become this
sort of good vibes place where Mayor Garcetti and and the
governor of Los Angeles, governor of California, Gavin
Newsom, then nobody, everyone is scared of being called a bad
person. And we used to realize that coaches and teachers and
generals and the police force and the people, the mayor and
the governor, when they enforced laws, they weren't bad people.
They enforce laws, they're doing what they were elected to do.
They're doing their job. Now, when official says, I want to
get rid of this homeless camp, we're going to we're going to
build those the homeless camp we're gonna give it it's like,
why are you being a mean person? Why are you being a bad person?
This is a Zeitgeist that's washing over this nation, that
the people that the teacher that's expelling the student for
being unruly, has now become the bad person, not the student, the
teacher, we're turning on the rule of law. We're turning on
the teachers, the coaches, the governors, that the mayors that
the cops think what we've done with cops, we've turned cops
into the bad guy. Yeah, not. Not the bad guys, who were the bad
guys. And the reason the cops are engaged with the bad guys is
because they're involved with some bad behavior. We've turned
a guy with the uniform and the badge into the bad guy, and
nobody wants to be the bad guy.
It's metal. But I think there's a big element of truth to what
he's saying.
Well, yes, I agree. I'm not gonna disagree with the basic
thesis. But some cities have the homeless problem in some cities
don't. Dallas doesn't have the same problem Austin has no,
because they're not the idiots.
Well, Who's the idiot that people in Dallas
know the people in Austin, the city council in Austin is
doesn't want to hurt anybody's feelings. He'll remember the
report I paid played on the last show where the the City Council
lady said, Well, you know, those needles, it's probably for, you
know, they have diabetes, and the homeless people need to use
needles to
you, right? Yeah.
For insulin. Yeah. Yeah,
that is the dumbest thing here. Let
me play, shorty him play it.
And I just wanted to point out because, you know, folks are
expressing concern over the needles, that people use needles
for health reasons and for insulin and other stuff. And I
believe that's what we were seeing. And so I just wanted to
throw that out there that a lot of folks that are homeless have
health issues and are using the needles for for health reason
that doesn't make them safe to be on the ground. But but it is.
That is one of the reasons that we may be finding those in those
areas.
But Corolla has his own example of that this last clip, where he
said he gave, I thought, an excellent example of this, this
specific problem.
I was talking to a guy who runs the Staples Center, he literally
runs the Staples Center, one of the the rejuvenated downtown,
really, it was falling apart. Staples Center came in, and
really just brought it back to life. They bring millions of
dollars in tax revenues. I said a guy, I went to a game there
with my son, a Lakers game, I walked out, I almost tripped
over a guy selling hotdogs on your property from a shopping
cart with a propane tank on it. There was dozens of these guys
just all on the Staples Center property, they're selling food,
they're not licensed. They're not regulated. They're not
getting a grade from from the system. They're they're
literally just selling food, totally unregulated on your
property. And he said, Yeah, no, we hate it. We hate it. I wish
there was something we could do about it. I said, What do you
mean, what do you do about it? Go talk to the city council go
to my property to the mayor. I'll get off my property. Throw
him off your property call the cops. He said I don't want to
get into trouble.
That's it. That's a big part of the problem. And downtown LA is
really gone to crap now. Besides that particular area, but yeah,
that's it so they don't want to get in trouble with city council
and therefore you actually risk people getting sick from the
food. Yeah, or some propane tech exploding,
pulling up the place, whatever.
Whatever could happen. So I thought it was. I liked it. I
thought that was very interesting observation
is this interesting situation because San Francisco is kind of
the same. I think LA is, is got more. It's more diverse. So they
have a more of a diverse problem. And they don't add But
San Francisco, I don't see it being any different. In terms of
the city council, the city council,
I think it's helpful precisely the same thing.
They get the pooping going on in San Francisco. I think it's a
little more. There's more of that than in LA, I think.
Well, it's starting here in Austin. The pooping Yep. pooping
on the street.
Yeah, and it's very, very strange phenomenon.
The the pooping itself or allowing nod or both thing, the
whole homeless pooping, failure to do anything about it.
And you know, and we have certainly one homeless guy who
emails me regularly, he has an Obama phone, he listens to the
show. And it's not made easy for him is really he sees no and
he's in I want to say he's in Washington State. He says no way
out that he does not see a way out. And they know that all
kinds of horrible stuff happens, especially out out there. And
the worst is, is the homeless themselves there, they do
horrible things to each other. So I do a lot of things that I
can for the homeless. So I don't want to sound like you know,
people think I sound like a dick. But there's ways to help.
And this is just counterproductive. And I think
we should stop by saying now okay, you can't camp here.
Here's where you can camp. Here's if you want to live as a
camper, that's fine. And we'll help you get your disability
check people there are ways for them to get money but they don't
want to and people don't really want to help them and the only
other agencies here they want a per client fee now so it's it's
kind of a insidious is like a circle. It's a real bummer at
the end of the show. Dammit, Dude, give me something fun
John. I don't like this. He's
gonna save the Trump stuff for less I do it maybe
just one just give me one thing Live Help me Help me.
Stone new information. Nothing. There's a funny story out at
Michigan State they had this MSU in his painful reminder of Lynch
boy. So they had a game display. They had a couple of these
things. They had it was a display and in the student fist,
you know, the students store kind of thing. And they had
these little Motlow characters little rag dolls that they were
selling. And the displayed there was like, you know how they have
a little clip on the back or something and you hang it? Yes.
Well, the way they did it because they didn't have a
little clip I put a rope around their neck hung on from turns
out to be what looks like a tree.
Oh man.
Well play this story.
Leaders of Michigan State University apologizing today for
a controversial display at a school's performance center gift
shop. You can take a look at the display yourself. Many are
calling it racist saying it shows historical black figures
hanging from a tree. Following public outcry the school removed
the display and sent out a statement to apologize. But some
students say it's just not enough. Oh,
to be constantly confronted with images and displays and you know
these messages like all the time, like it's a painful
response. It's a painful reminder.
Well who was this? Who was the 20 year old painful reminder
reminder of one lady.
Before Michael Jackson played
videos are in an arbor whatsoever.
No it's painful. It's she remember she remembers the days
when MTV didn't play Michael Jackson video so that's painful
reminder,
I guess but it was they saw there was a couple of these
incidents that they had to do it to some merchandising guy liking
to hang these items so you can see them
was Was this a white lady? This is a white lady who said that
wasn't a white lady who said that?
I don't know who know a painful reminder Yeah, no, it's a global
is a blow Okay, all right. Well, good. But the point is, is that
it would you can see some idiot who's you know, I don't know
what this is just hanging the way to display them. But I'd
like to give them good positioning here. It's going to
be an end cap.
I like that it's not good enough to say sorry. Not good enough. I

I've seen some of the ads and all I see is Mike Bloomberg with
a lot of black people.
I see him every day. And I they're not that good.
You just have to learn to live with some things. They get a
paycheck. With your paycheck comes some restrictions and
responsibility. Slavery to sharecropping, Jim Crow
segregation, and redlining, Bloomberg Bloomberg. But when
you think about it from an economic perspective, the
exploitation wars, theft of labor, and a transfer of wealth
enshrined in law and enforced by violence. taxes are regressive.
That's the good thing about them. Problem is people that
don't have a lot of money. And so higher taxes should have a
bigger impact on their behavior and how they deal with
themselves. Bloomberg Bloomberg, we have a lot of soldiers in the
United States and the US Army and that's what why you do want
to do exactly what a lot of people say you don't want to do.
