John C Dvorak: Why are these women behind a chain? Adam
curry, John C. Dvorak.
Adam Curry: Are they January 18 2024. This Year Award Winning
Combination media assassination episode 1646. This
Unknown: is no agenda.
Adam Curry: deconstructing Davos and broadcasting live from the
heart of the Texas Hill Country here at FEMA Region number six.
In the morning, everybody. I'm Adam curry, from
John C Dvorak: Northern Silicon Valley where I advise everyone
to learn how to pickled turnips. I'm John C. Dvorak.
Adam Curry: And this is important for prepping for the
apocalypse.
John C Dvorak: It's just tasty.
Adam Curry: I believe turnip is from the mustard family.
John C Dvorak: B s that would also apply to the rutabaga,
which is the root as referred to as the Swede. And also what is
the rutabaga is a turnip. Ah, it actually has a slightly
different flavor, but it's a turnip. And just as good
pickled,
Adam Curry: and have you been eating a lot of turnips
recently, this is
John C Dvorak: I made some pickled turnips and I had one
before the show pickled the turn of peace. And I decided that
would be my theme for the day
Adam Curry: for breakfast. Is that how you roll? Like, what
should I have for breakfast? I think I'll still have some
pickled turnip. I have a lot to look forward to my old age and
it's gonna be great.
John C Dvorak: It'd be good to be here. Good to go.
Adam Curry: Ah, hey, my beat is back. It happens every once I
don't think it's ever is the World Economic Forum is that
every year in Davos every year so my beat is back on the beat.
John C Dvorak: Are you referring to Rachel Maddow?
Adam Curry: Yeah. It's been great this year. Is no has it?
Oh, yeah. Because well, I can tell you, I don't want to spoil
it. But the title of the the theme of this year is it's kind
of apparent. The theme of Davos or as the Swiss say Davao. But
no one says Davao anymore. No, it says Delvaux. It's Davos with
Davos. Tons of world leaders bankers business people, flags
and banners everywhere for Intel AMD celebrate ease. I don't I
have not seen that many celebrities this year. Although
the the typical article comes out as scored businesses are
skyrocketing Hulu
John C Dvorak: 2500 bucks a night. Oh, is that that's all?
Well to where it says in the news. Well,
Adam Curry: that seems cheap. What happened to inflation for
the
John C Dvorak: day, make it up in volume.
Adam Curry: I'd like to deconstruct a little bit with
some short clips just to get us all into the mood. The theme for
this year is restoring trust world leaders,
Unknown: corporate giants, giants, academics. They're all
coming together in Davos, Switzerland today. It's the
start of the 54th World Economic Forum.
John C Dvorak: Up stopping you have to give us a little premise
where this clip come from.
Adam Curry: This is CB is just an intro clip from the CBC. CBC
okay. I mean, I could have gotten it from anywhere just a
minute intro just to get you into the vibe just to let you
know what's happening
Unknown: economically. And security is very tight at the
Swiss ski resort as those international elites begin to
arrive. Number of key politicians are going to be
there US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Emmanuel Macron,
the French president key Middle East leaders as well. But it's
the economics of things front and center. The daunting global
economic forecasts may be of interest to central bankers,
Mark Carney, the former Bank of Canada had one of those who's
scheduled to talk today, but to no real official Canadian
representation in all of this.
The biggest risk we face is that we lose hope. We lose trust,
trust into our institutions and particularly trust in our
capability to shape a better future. Yes,
Adam Curry: trust we are losing the trust. The funny thing about
that clip he was saying that to push that guy that Richard, the
guy from CNN who got caught with meth in his pocket and a dildo
in his boot. Remember that guy
John C Dvorak: from CIA who they had him his dick tied to a
steering wheel? Yeah, guy.
Adam Curry: I don't remember if it was exactly that. Richard
Quest Richard Quest. Yeah. So he's they're interviewing Klaus
Schwab and Klaus Shrivers to us, we lose. I can't take that guy.
Serious. See anymore?
John C Dvorak: You could take him seriously before?
Adam Curry: No, I guess not. All right now into a couple of the
first one is a little longer. It's a minute of the rest of the
relatively short just to get our blood pumping. What is the most
important thing? What is this all about? We had a global risk
report. This is what the theme is everyone's talking about it.
Enter stage left Queen Ursula of the European Union's to close.
Unknown: Let me go back to the number one concern of the global
risk report. This information and misinformation. tackling
this has been our focus, since the very beginning of my
mandate, this
Adam Curry: by mandate, this is the most important thing
disinformation.
Unknown: With our Digital Services Act. We defined the
responsibilities of large internet platforms on the
content. They promote and propagate, propagate a
responsible to children and vulnerable groups targeted by
hate speech hate speech, that also have a responsibility to
our societies as a whole. Yes, because the boundary between
online and offline, is getting thinner and thinner. And the
values we cherish offline should also be protected online. But
that's not all. And this is even more important in this new era
of generative AI generative
Adam Curry: AI now, the
Unknown: world's economic risk report that puts artificial
intelligence as one of the top potential risks for the next
decade.
Adam Curry: All right, so that's that artificial intelligence,
one of the top potential risks of the next especially that
generic generic motive generic, the generic narrative I love. I
love the Alright, now a couple of quickies. This is John Evans
from Alibaba, former Goldman Sachs we're developing
Unknown: through technology and ability for consumers to measure
their own carbon footprint.
Adam Curry: Oh, yeah. That's where are they traveling? How
are they traveling?
Unknown: What are they eating? They aren't consuming on the
platform. So individual carbon footprint
tracker. They tuned we don't have it operational yet. But
this is something that we're working on. Yes,
Adam Curry: it'll be
John C Dvorak: just, oh, they're working on our carbon footprint
tracker, that is great.
Adam Curry: It'll be great because you can use it for
yourself first, but then I'm sure they're gonna use it
against you what you eat. We're tracking your carbon footprint
based on what you eat. So all of this has a very kind of Nazi
vibe, you know, Uber, Uber mentioned of Davao. And this
next clip I love to guys trying desperately to avoid saying New
World Order. This is in fact this is the World Economic Forum
President Barga Brenda, Klaus is the chairman I guess, the
founder or co founder, and this is the President bordiga brand.
And he's sitting there with Jake Sullivan, another fine specimen.
Listen, listen to how they they attempt to avoid sounding like
douchebags that order
Unknown: seems to No, no, not be the order anymore. We are on the
way to a new order. So we are between the orders. Do you agree
with that? Or are there ways of? What are we able to keep on the
positive side from the old order to bring into a new world order?
And how can we avoid that New World Order becomes like a
jungle growing back. And we rather have order based on
international law.
Adam Curry: You remember when New World Order was just a
conspiracy theory, this is stupid. There's no new world
order. That's all it's Alex Jones principles
Unknown: that have brought us prosperity and freedom. For
decades tomorrow, Jake,
I guess, maybe this is the the old kind of teacher me coming
out. I think of this alternative more about a transition of eras
rather than a transition to borders. But the two are kind of
cousins of one another. The reason I draw the distinction is
because I don't think the international order built after
1945 is getting replaced wholesale with new order. It
will obviously as it has evolved multiple times over the decades
since 1945. But I do think in a in a more thing, sharp and
distinctive way. We are moving into a new era. And that's what
I talked about in my remarks that we are you know, the post
cold war era has come to a close. We're at the start of
something new. We have the cup pasady to shape what that looks
like. And at the heart of it will be many of the core
principles and core institutions of the existing order adapted
for the challenges that we face today.
Adam Curry: Imagine spending 1000s of dollars going to Davao
1000s of dollars in hotel and food expenses and you still have
to stand in line and listen to these to Jumoke sit there and
New World Order each other. It's just sad. And then
John C Dvorak: yes, you do I still love to stand in line.
Yeah. Now
Adam Curry: we know the old war is peace. Yeah, the the old 1984
We asked Newspeak war is peace. Well again Stoltenberg of course
the still to be replaced NATO war monger he was there and he
laid it out perfectly
Unknown: does that if we want that to happen, a peaceful just
enter this all the way to get there are more or is more
weapons to Ukraine. Credible we are in our military support, the
more likely it is that the diplomats will succeed. So
Adam Curry: to achieve peace, we need more war. Love it. So there
was a lot of coffee klatch about social media and X. X is very
bad x x. I guess the the elite messaging system is so broken,
although I disagree. I think you and I both agree that it's never
been a better time to spread disinformation. But these elites
Oh, they're come they're complaining about it's no good
Unknown: for a long time I was on Twitter. And now it's become
such a toxic place that I've concluded it's not nice to spend
time and as you said, it is exhausting. So you do have to
wake up who is this?
John C Dvorak: Is that Maria?
Adam Curry: No, no, these are two undefined women in a coffee
clutch about x. Okay, just it's just a coffee club. You know,
they'll have all these little panels. Yes, a nude Nick. Nick,
Nick Daniels. Yeah, though breakout sessions, it's
Unknown: not worthwhile place to spend time. And as you said, it
is exhausting. So you do have to pick and choose. And you have to
think about where the places where you can get your message
across. But I am trying to figure out I mean, I haven't
given up on X but a scary name. And I don't know what the
alternative is right now. So
with the person of the social media, I must say that I have
happened on Twitter, too. So eex? Because yeah, toxic
environment. We talked about, I have no solution on that. But I
think one they will come the moment of code of conduct.
Conduct because journalists, journalists, if you spread crazy
news and insults, and if you if a journalist is racist thinks he
can he can be amended. Why? Why social media is that they have
such big power. We can, because it's new, but I think we there
will be a societal reflection on how information is proved there,
of course on also, the policy of the owner, that is problematic,
but the problem of society of the future,
Adam Curry: that is the problem of the society of the future, it
must change. They had a lot of sessions about changing effects,
and social conduct. And we can't have this and this is no good of
this not like journalism. And of course, Bill Gates was there.
Although the bill, he doesn't do a lot of sessions. He seems to
go on a lot of interview programs now, which is always
outside. So he's on CNBC and Yahoo financial news. And this
was I think, some Indian outfit. And surprise, surprise bill is
selling more vaccines, we make
Unknown: sure that for all these vaccines, that there's enough
capacity, that there's competition, so the prices keep
going down. And we will have new vaccines, we'll have a TB
vaccine, malaria vaccine, HIV vaccine, and even the things
like COVID vaccines, we need to make them have longer duration,
more coverage. And we're gonna change instead of use the needle
to use a little patch. So the pandemic really highlighted that
we've been under invested in those innovations. And you know,
our partners in India are part of how we're going to get these
breakthrough products done.
Adam Curry: So what I hear in this clip is the long rumored
vaccine patch, which has little needles and and gives you the
vaccine to a little band aid. And I also heard that he's going
to test it on Indians,
John C Dvorak: but they want to get The Indian population so
surpassed China so they gotta
Adam Curry: gotta give him the patch.
John C Dvorak: You gotta push it down. Get it back to normal. Get
that good under a billion he kill off. Hit
Adam Curry: that patch out there peewee And India is going to
help us yeah going to help us do this. Thanks. Alright India to
stay standby. Then of course we have to talk about genocide,
genocide, genocide, genocide, genocide. Do you know how you
commit genocide, you commit genocide by fishing and farming,
ecocide
Unknown: as a word is becoming more, it's becoming better known
around the world. And the concept is generally mass damage
and destruction of nature. But Legally speaking, what our
organization and other collaborators aim to do, is to
have this recognized legally as a serious crime. Because one of
the issues that sort of pervades all of this discussion is that
we have a kind of cultural, very ingrained habit of not taking
damage to nature as seriously as we take damage to people and
property. And that's, I mean, if you're campaigning for human
rights, at least, you know, mass murder, torture, all of these
things are serious crimes, but there's no equivalent in the
environmental space. And so And unlike an international crime,
like genocide that didn't involve a specific intent, with
ecocide, what we see is actually what people are trying to do,
what businesses are trying to do is make money is is farm is fish
is do all of these things that are producing energy and so on,
as well. But what's it what's missing is the awareness and the
conscience around the side effects around the collateral
damage that happens with that ecocide?
Adam Curry: ecocide, you're killing fish. And in your
farming is killing, nature ecocide? We need international
rules against ecocide.
John C Dvorak: Of course. Rather,
Adam Curry: we're almost there. Tadros course Tadros is there.
John C Dvorak: Everybody's buddy,
Adam Curry: everybody's buddy from the World Health
Organization. And he just couldn't help himself how to
talk about this is x. This is x this is x. So
Unknown: this is x is a placeholder for unknown. This is
I just wanted to start by clarifying that because there is
already a lot a lot of attention, if I may, although
COVID came immediately that we were preparing for COVID. Like,
this is diseases, you may
even call COVID as the first disease exists. And it may
happen again,
Adam Curry: yes, it may
John C Dvorak: happen again, every 100 years, but somehow
it's going to cycle is going to be sped up. How's that work is?
Adam Curry: Well, Elon Musk is disease X. But he's just not
saying anyway, what is really going on here this, everybody in
Davos is afraid, and they're afraid of one thing. And this is
really what all the discussions about. It's what it all comes
down to. And we're just going to come full circle, bring it back
to Queen, Ursula, this is what they're really afraid of
business,
Unknown: have the innovation, the technology, the talents, to
deliver the solutions, we need to fight threats, like climate
change, or industrial scale disinformation. And this is more
important than ever, as we start 2020 for the biggest electoral
year, in history, democracies across the world will have to
the pulse, and half of the global population will be
affected. This includes over 450 million people in the European
Union, a union of 27 democracies, where all of us
have the right mind to be ourselves, even if we are
different from the majority. This
Adam Curry: is what they're worried about. They're worried
about the rise of the people, although they classify that as
far right.
John C Dvorak: Far Right. And they also like to use the word
populism as though as a bad thing. Yes. That's
Adam Curry: what they're worried about. They're seeing it
everywhere in every country in the world because of them. Yes,
exactly. So they have brought it on themselves to figure out how
to disinfo better, they have to figure out how to use generic
native AI to disinfo better figure out how to dis info about
climate change. That's what every single session is about.
They are deathly afraid of the people rising up and doing this
one thing called voting. So of course, you know, they're
probably swapping out secrets. Hey, if you stuffed the ballot
box, you couldn't win is great. Now there was one interview that
was just mind boggling at Dubbo. on CNBC, JP Morgan. Chairman
CEO, Jamie Dimon always goes on the morning show always spouts
off. And he confirmed and Jamie diamond is a Trump hater. He's
been a Trump hater. He hates everything about Trump. He's
just a hater. But the hater butters gotta hate and I would
say he's, you know, he's he's Jeffrey Epstein's banker. proven
fact. Yeah, I mean, he didn't they didn't have a trial,
because he paid everybody off. Was it 15 billion or something?
paid it all off. Yeah, that's how you do it. But he now
messages what we were theorizing about, that the whole plan is
here to have Trump win this election, for Trump to take all
the collapse, because there will be another financial and if
there isn't one already underway, they'll make one
because it's great, because then you know, we have easy to do.
When you have a crisis, you can print more money, do all the
things you need to do. We need a financial reset, we need to
blame it all on Trump and Republicans. So that in four
years, everybody will be saying, please give us Joe back
anything, but this isn't horrible. Our lives are not
worthy. And he did it in the following manner.
Unknown: I think it's a mistake to assume that everything's
hunky dory. And you know, and when stock markets rough, it's
kind of like this little drug we all feel like, it's just great,
you know, but remember, we've had so much fiscal monetary
stimulation. So I'm a little more on the cautious side.
Adam Curry: I love how he laughs about that. It's like, we got so
much money was great.
Unknown: But remember, we've had so much fiscal monetary
stimulation. So I'm a little more on the cautious side, that
we are facing a lot of things in 2024 or 25. And you mentioned
Ukraine, the terrorist activity Israel, the Red Sea,
quantitative tightening, which I still question if we understand
exactly how that works. I don't think we do have QE actually
work, what the effect of negative zero rates was folding.
And obviously, the politics, and then the Ukrainian wars
affecting oil, gas, food migration. So you have all these
very powerful forces that are going to be affecting us in 24,
and 25. So if I was the government, I would be preparing
for I'm going to do about that, assuming things aren't good. And
I just also want to point out, I wish the Democrats would think a
little more carefully when they talk about Magga. You know, and
if you travel this country, then the cruise is unbelievable. We
took a bus trip this year, and Leslie picker was on Spokane and
Boise and volcanoes growing, they're hungry to grow. They're
innovating. It's, it's everywhere. It's not just
Silicon Valley. So we've got this great hand. But when people
say Magga, they're actually looking at people voting for
Trump, and they think they're voting and they're basically
scapegoating them, that you are like him. And I don't think
they're voting for Trump because family values. If you just take
a step back, be honest. He's kind of right about NATO. Right.
But immigration, kinda, he grew the economy quite well, trade.
Tax Reform worked. He was right about some of China. I don't I
don't like what he did. I said China made me I don't like how
he said things Mexico, I don't like, but he wasn't wrong about
these critical issues. And that's why they voted for him.
And I think people should be a little more respectful of our
fellow citizens. And when you guys have people up here, you
should always ask the why not like it's a binary thing. You're
supporting Trump, you're not support Trump. Why use it's
John C Dvorak: hard to hate 75 million of your fellow
Americans. It's, I agree done.
Unknown: And you know, the Democrats have done a pretty
good job with the deplorables plugging on their Bibles and
their beer and their guns. I mean, really, like, can we just
stop that stuff and actually grow up and other people respect
and listen to a little bit? I do think the economy will affect I
think this this negative talk about Magga is going to hurt
Biden's electoral campaign.
Adam Curry: Get let Trump have it all. Let him have it. Stop
it. Let Maga win. Give it to them. It'll be great because
it's not going to be good. What's happening? That's what I
heard.
John C Dvorak: And that's an interesting interpretation. I
think you could have heard that. Well,
Adam Curry: I feel that and I have a short NPR clip here. I
feel that it is the word is out. The message is in is like the
Iowa caucus. 1% of the vote was in, in the media who always
determines our elections, called it for Trump. This This was
surprising to me. The New York Times called it for Trump within
one minute. NPR was surprised too. So
Unknown: what's it all mean? For that we turn to NPR Senior
Political Editor and correspondent Dominika Montana
Oh, hey there, Dominica. Hey, Mary Louise Hay, depress made a
swift call made quite an early call last night and the call was
that Trump had an insurmountable lead. What stood out to you
about last night? Well, surprises
can happen in politics, and we should prepare ourselves for
those. But this result was not one of them. I mean, I was
surprised, though, at how quickly the race was called. I
mean, just half an hour after voting began at and other
networks were able to do that because of the overwhelming lead
that Trump had in the entrance polls that were taken throughout
the state. And then that matched some key precincts. And that's
all that was really needed for them to have that kind of
confidence level. In the end, it was Trump with more than 50% of
the vote exactly what polling had shown for months and months.
Adam Curry: I thought it was very suspicious. Calling it for
Trump with 1% of the vote that also skews people who still
hadn't voted. Noses
John C Dvorak: caucuses is no voting. Well,
Adam Curry: okay, it's caucus and yes, I don't know. It's to
me, it was very suspicious that all of a sudden they're like,
oh, it's Trump. Didn't you think so? I
John C Dvorak: didn't see it that way. Personally, it was
obvious he was gonna do that. And he just wanted to get out of
there and go home. damn cold to be out. By
Adam Curry: the way, the there was this open letter to the
Davos here, proud to pay more. Our message at Davos is simple.
elected leaders must tax us the super rich, we'd be proud to pay
more. So a whole bunch of rich douchebags sign this open
letter. And I would just like to remind them if you go to
Treasury direct.gov The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is happy
to accept gifts donated to the United States government to
reduce the debt held by the public.
John C Dvorak: This is true, you are the it is your app. So save
all joined in, I guess the whole center money and you think
Adam Curry: it's just performative in 2022. A whopping
$180,310.32 was donated voluntarily. This should be
billions this year.
John C Dvorak: You think these blowhards
Adam Curry: proud to pay more? Yeah. Oh yes, please. We're
proud to pay more to tackle extreme inequality, proud to pay
more to help reduce the cost of living for working people.
John C Dvorak: Are there any names on there that you can tell
us? Yes,
Adam Curry: We the undersigned the funniest one is Brian Cox,
who plays a billionaire on television in billions are no
secession secession as a whole bunch of people have been
there's hundreds of people here. I presume they're all
billionaires. I don't know maybe
John C Dvorak: it was done in just that because I think you
right, they should be donating their excess funds to Treasury
Adam Curry: Todd Oppenheimer sounds like a rich dude. There's
no Jamie Dimon on here. I'll tell you that. He's not he's not
stupid. But yeah, I just want to remind everybody, you you can,
you can definitely, you can definitely help us out. Just
donate your money right now. I will. Thank you.
John C Dvorak: So to change topics a bit, I want to do a mia
culpa for myself. Oh, to say got two or three notes. Nasty notes.
Adam Curry: Yeah. Can you get to read up?
John C Dvorak: Now I don't need to read it Micah summarize. And
the nasty notes evolved revolved around the Zoomer who quit her
job? Or who got fired? Yes. From Cloudflare. Yes. And what's of
importance? I'll just summarize. Well, I also gotten asked, you
know, for some woman who just called me a douchebag, for even
Adam Curry: I think she actually said, that's 30 minutes of my
life, I'll never get back again.
John C Dvorak: It was a nine minute clip. So I don't know how
she does her calculation. She's lucky to have a job herself.
Where so? One guy pointed out, one of our producers seemed
extremely knowledgeable about sales. And he pointed out that
this bullcrap, because all his say most of his sales close
during that holiday period between Thanksgiving and New
Year's. So she was full of shit that she couldn't close these
deals during the most profitable time of the year. And I was
thinking about when he said that you read that note. I said to
myself, you know, that's funny. I did. I didn't recognize that
fact. Because all of our income for this show pretty much shows
up in that same period.
Adam Curry: Yes. And so yeah, yeah, you're right. So that's
the closing
John C Dvorak: time of the year. So this woman had no legs to
stand on and regarding this complaint, when that's when she
should have closed, not the He's falling apart. And then he had a
number of breakdowns and the way she didn't close and some of the
details of her incompetence, and he went on about it. And it was
very, I took that one to heart. That was a good note. And then
somebody else pointed out, which I thought was off. Yeah, there's
that because I had made such a fuss about this is the new new
this is gonna happen a lot because we were going to record
these calls. And then he reminded me because I know this,
from my experience, that when you when you get fired, or get
laid off, you get a bonus, usually of cash money, if you
sign a nondisclosure. Yeah, as you walk out the door. Yeah. So
in other words, you can you hate the company, not because they
just fired, you're there, you're gone by, oh, here's five grand
design this thing, you can take this check home, and but you
have to shut up, you can start bitching and moaning about the
company. So that precludes the idea that everyone is going to
be doing this because in fact, especially in tech, everyone's
is bought off. But NDAs they can't do it. In fact, she
obviously refused to do that. And she just left in a huff so.
So I was my interpretation of the entire scene, I consider to
be completely erroneous, if that helps anyone.
Adam Curry: I also received an interesting note from one of our
knights. He says I've fired over 1000 people in my career, I was
doing exactly what Clooney was doing in the moving in the
movie, including living in Dallas and flying American
Airlines. If they wanted to avoid paying more for
unemployment insurance, and we're firing for cause they
should have been better organized, he says, But what
I've done the way I did it, we usually start by saying you
being let go with no cause and will be eligible for
unemployment. There's no point in telling someone why they are
being let go unless you are doing for cause and will fight
unemployment benefits. He says the single biggest layoff I've
ever done, I fired five years ago, I fired 76 people on the
same zoom call. Man that's cold.
John C Dvorak: That's a good one. That's cold.
Adam Curry: That was five years ago. One other point of note,
because we questioned whether the stacked ranking was a part
of Salesforce. And we also brought up SAP one of our
producers who works for SAP says I know for a fact our software
is not able to do stacked ranking, because we do ranking
ourselves on a spreadsheet. I've never had to stack rank fire
anyone but when we're talking about who's getting bonuses and
salary increases, we do it every year, we have a spreadsheet
sought out the team and update the software from the
spreadsheet. So apparently you know that you know I would start
I would I would start looking for a job but Salesforce if I
were you SAP seems to be behind. Behind. And it was Bambi Bambi
is the company that you call for to for HR to fire people. Oh,
Bambi ba M glam li cute Bambi BAM delay. So
John C Dvorak: now that's true. I think that straightens out.
Adam Curry: We're incredibly sorry for the loss of life. So
sorry.
John C Dvorak: Really learned something?
Adam Curry: Yeah, that we that your your stuff is no good. No
good. And
John C Dvorak: my clips suck,
Adam Curry: you're hurting people. That, you know, I want
to remind people because we've been doing our value for value
segments at the end, which looking at the minute by minute,
we can track some of that with podcasting 2.0 Not person but we
can see. It's not really such a drop off other than there's a
drop off. But I was surprised by this note from one of our
producers as I first of all must express my opinion. And my
appreciation and affection for the show have had many people in
mouth include my wife and two daughters, aged 14 and 27. I've
made anonymous donations and attended several nogen meetups,
I must point out something that you may not have considered a
concern to the donation section. It may be hard to believe most
women don't want to hear about boob donations. My wife and
daughters no longer listen to the show with me because of the
awkwardness. And it goes on to say you just understand that
they don't want to listen to locker room talk about
objectifying body parts of women. And I had to pause there
for a second and say they have no problem with clips about
babies being beheaded and ripped out of wombs and all the other
stuff that's going on in the world, but the word boob and and
I would say Sir Kevin McLaughlin honors this part of the female
anatomy that somehow is enough for them to say I can't listen
to this show anymore.
John C Dvorak: Well, I thought that was a net to be very
specious. What my argument is juvenile in that regard. What my
argument is no, the women's argument? Yes. I think that they
are being silly. To put it mildly silly.
Adam Curry: Oh, I in all the years that Kevin McLaughlin has
been doing this this is the first complaint I've ever
received.
John C Dvorak: Well I'm sure there's other people that don't
like it. I think that I think
Adam Curry: that your daughters and your wife just hate the show
and they
John C Dvorak: know where what state are they in I like to know
in that state I do not know I do. Or country
Adam Curry: I think America but I think it's just they're sick
and tired of listening to your podcasts and they use that as a
as a as an excuse.
John C Dvorak: I believe that to be correct. You can listen to
this right here. People are looking for excuses not to
donate and people are looking for excuses to donate. You have
to give them excuses to donate it now. Everything becomes an
excuse not to donate ended the show itself if you don't like
the show. Yeah. Yeah, you can point a finger at the boob
donation and which is which is playful. You don't enjoy
playfulness. You're taking things a little too seriously.
Is this show is not for you? No. Because really playful, playful
show. In fact, I have
Adam Curry: no agenda. It's a playful show.
John C Dvorak: It is a playful, playful show.
Adam Curry: I like that we're a playful show.
John C Dvorak: So I listened to just got caught up in when a
Trump speeches and I listened to most of it. I didn't get to hear
the whole thing. But I do have Do I have a mini or do not have
a visiting DC I have I have? Oh, here it is Trump. Yeah. So I got
a couple of his his bits out new bits is fish stick they uses his
new some of his new material that is used in his set
Adam Curry: this back. That's a great set. Man. That was great
set. So
John C Dvorak: I just want to play these two because they one
of them was is new, new standby. But the first one I just thought
was kind of cute. A very short clip is just throws it in this
Trump on visiting Washington DC. But there's not
Unknown: going to be people show up. People come in from your
state. They want to go see Washington. So they come in from
New Hampshire, they walk down the road, they end up getting
shot.
Adam Curry: They get shot in the nation's capitol.
John C Dvorak: You go to Washington, you get shot. Now,
the funny thing is about that particular bit is that he knows
it is it is you know, he knows he's doing jokes. And so he kind
of blew that one up because they use the word shot and they
pulled it back as fast as he could say he couldn't hear it at
the very beginning. If you listen to the very beginning, he
says he uses the word shot, go to Washington DC to get shot,
and then he kind of chokes over it. So he knows what he's doing
up there. Yeah. Oh, of course. He
Adam Curry: knows what he's doing. Now. Here's
John C Dvorak: the bit that he did. He's done this one all
throughout Iowa. And he used to do it. He did it the first time
he did. He got a big reaction from the MSNBC and others. So
he's trying he wants people to die to vote for him. So
Unknown: even if you think and I joked I said, if your husband
sick as a dog, get him out of bed, darling Jack Jack. Yeah,
yes, yes. I'm so sick. Don't. Jack, get your ass out of bed.
You're voting for your star. It doesn't matter. As long as he
gets that voted. He kicks the bucket after that. It's okay. He
served his country. I'll write him a letter. Jack, thank you
for your service. Jack. Thank you for writing the letter.
Jack, thank you for your service.
Adam Curry: He's deplorable. I can't believe is. He's the
worst. This is what's interesting, because he does
this type of stick. Let me see I have it here. And I'm sure you
saw some of this. I've just a short couple of short ones. But
the MSNBC folks just went off the rails about well, he's
playing to the white Christians. Yeah, that's exactly what the
white Christians want to hear. We want to hear about getting
shot. That's exactly right. Joy read.
Unknown: But you know, I feel like the important sort of data
point data point, you know, Steve talks about it a lot.
He's, he's gonna probably talk about a little more tonight is
that these these are white Christians, that this is a state
that is overrepresented, or over represented by white Christians
that are going to participate in these caucuses, especially
tonight. I today earlier today reached out to Robert Jones,
Robin Jones, from Robert Religion Research Institute,
knowing that we were going to talk about Iowa and this is a
hyper evangelical white state. And he said the following to me
Iowa is about 61% White Christian, the country as a
whole is approximately 41%, white Christian. And if I were
talking about evangelical white Christians, and he said the
following, because I asked him, what do they get out of
supporting Donald Trump because he keeps him Losing, he keeps
delivering losses and losses, losses. And he said the
following. They see themselves as the rightful inheritors of
this country. And Trump has promised to give it back to
them. All the things that we think about, about electability
about, you know, what are people gaming out or none of that
matters when you believe that God has given you this country
that it is yours, and that everyone who is not a white
conservative Christian is a is a fraudulent American is a less a
less real American than you don't care about electability.
Adam Curry: I gotta find a better church. We're not talking
about that in our church. But I want to hear that God gave this
country to us the white Christians.
John C Dvorak: Wow, does she just dream this stuff out of
thin air? Oh, no, this to me, this
Adam Curry: was an ongoing topic. This is Yeah. Man,
Supercuts
John C Dvorak: of the of this claim that Trump get even
there's another, I should have gotten these clips. There was a
series of clips, all taken from MSNBC saying that even though he
was broke pretty much every record for Iowa caucuses. Now
Adam Curry: he lost. Oh, I didn't hear that. Well. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: he lost because nobody showed there wasn't
enough people to vote. It was really a losers. It's a surprise
that the numbers were so low. What he did to 51% was it's
amazing even got that much. Lost. He was a loser. Alex,
people are in clinically insane over at MSNBC.
Adam Curry: I don't even know I need to I'm sure the ratings are
doing better. Because, you know, people need this. They they need
to get their fix of Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah, that's
right, man. It's the Christians only the white Christians. By
the way, the black Christians pretty radical in this country.
John C Dvorak: If you're much more radical than white Chris.
Yes, of course.
Adam Curry: Let's listen to Alex Wagner, who was supposed to be
more serious than a man. There was so many cool memes of joy
read with that white hair do that. She's got the white legs.
John C Dvorak: He's a Trump hair. Yes. A Trump.
Adam Curry: earpiece. Oh, there was a lot of that. A lot of
generic AI stuff. I loved it.
Unknown: I Steve was pointing out the evangelical vote, which
I've been fascinated by and recently,
Adam Curry: what exactly is the evangelical vote Joe? Just so I
understand, because they throw this term out there all the
time. But is that a
John C Dvorak: voting bloc is considered the evangelical vote.
Yeah, that stems from mostly the south. And it's supposed to be
it's like the black vote. It's enough to
Adam Curry: prop up but what is an evangelical and
John C Dvorak: evangelize evangelical? Helped me Okay,
evangelical in my mind is a Christian fundamentalist that
comes out of the Pentecostal and mostly the Pentecostal church.
Okay.
Adam Curry: Oh, all right. We don't have one of those here. I
gotta find one weeks because there's gotta be there's no, I
don't think there's a Pentecostal. We have a lot of
churches I'd be I'd be stunned. Now. A lot of Lutheran churches
around here, Lutheran. Themed reporters
Unknown: have been talking about the way in which the Trump
coalition the Maga coalition has ads coalition devoured the
evangelical coalition, kind of a case study in that Michelle
Goldberg talks about it. Tim Alberta's new book talks about
it. David French has talked about this phenomenon. And if
you look at those entry polls, you know, as Steve points out,
55% of white born again or evangelicals are going through
Trump. That is a that is an exponential increase from 2016.
Do you consider yourself part of the Magga movement? 78% going
for Trump. That's not hugely surprising. But the overlap
there I think is what I mean is what is so remarkable about this
moment in American politics right? By van der Platz, right
who is a kingmaker in Iowa politics an evangelical and very
much a mouthpiece for the evangelical vote
Adam Curry: or want to be an evangelical kingmaker. This is
make you want to be in on this. This sounds like
Unknown: fun Iowa endorses Don Ron DeSantis. It clearly does
not matter. Evangelical America is behind Donald Troy in
John C Dvorak: a minute hold on a second.
Adam Curry: She listening to herself clearly. Now she's
reading the prompter. She's got
John C Dvorak: this guy who is the evangelical Pied Piper king
maker. And he's all in for DeSantis and DeSantis. Just you
know, you know pretty much bid bid the bid to dust. Yeah, in
that election. So what was she talking about? At the event Joe
did were there just a leaderless cult what she's saying
Adam Curry: is you just feel an airtime maybe you want to hear
more
John C Dvorak: details filling Yeah, back it up a little bit
Unknown: Santas. It clearly does not matter. evangelical America
is behind Donald Trump. And that sort of gets to the roots of
like what Trump ism is now. You know, we were told in 2016 that
evangelicals made their beds with Trump because they wanted
to have a Supreme Court that was modeled in an evangelical
conservative model. Well, they got that but if evangelically
Adam Curry: conservative model, is that a new Tesla, I need I
need some of this
Unknown: seems like their affiliation with both and take a
look at this court they're
John C Dvorak: talking about, except for Amy Comey buried or
we're only one is the only one she's the only one the rest of
them are Catholic or Jewish. But Amy Kony Barrett, as I have I
have the Chevron deference clips. Yeah, I'm excited because
that's coming up. I'm excited. She's like, you know, she's a
pretty much of a long she's one of those people that over
studies have been she's not falling in line with anything
Unknown: that was modeled in an evangelical conservative model.
Well, they got that but it seems like their affiliation with
Trump and Maga is in runs deeper than that. And, you know, David
French has articulated this point beautifully. It's, it's,
it's the Trump is in some ways become religion for a certain
set of Americans.
Adam Curry: We're singing songs in church about him,
Unknown: and especially for evangelicals, that it's not
about the virtue anymore. It's about the vise that Trump
expresses. And I think you see that playing out in Iowa where
the evangelical vote is key. It is central to what is going to
unfold tonight. And it is very much a group of people that that
find that Trump is, in some ways the Second Coming. Trump
Adam Curry: is the Trump upon the cross is
Unknown: taking out ads, like the one that came out, I think a
week ago called god named Trump, there is a distinctly religious
undertone to his campaigning nationally. And and I think you
see that playing out in Iowa, right? I mean, right. Your
numbers do not lie, Rachel. And I find it really a spectacularly
interesting thing, if not, downright curious. Now,
Adam Curry: this is interesting, because I don't think this was
an ad created for television. She just kind of said that,
like, Oh, right. made this ad where God made Trump. Have you
seen this? This video? God made Trump? No, I've never seen it.
Okay, now, it is a takeoff. It's Paul Harvey. A bit. I don't
know. I I was not around for the original. The play you start
with? Well, it's a it's a takeoff on an orig. I don't know
there was an original Paul Harvey, God made something,
listen to it. And we can stop because you'll probably
recognize the cadence and everything. And this is
something that I think someone else made maybe, you know, the
white Christians for Trump
John C Dvorak: movement, some main guy, anybody so
Adam Curry: generic AI is good.
Unknown: And on June 14 1946, God looked down on his planned
paradise and said, I need a caretaker. So God gave us Trump.
God said, I need somebody willing to get up before dawn,
Adam Curry: I think it originally was God made the
farmer I think that what that's what the original was God made
the farmer, fix this
Unknown: country, work all day, fight the Marxist each suffer,
then go to the Oval Office and stay past midnight and a meeting
of the heads of state. So God made Trump I need somebody with
arms strong enough to rustle the deep state and yet gentle enough
to deliver his own grandchild. Somebody to ruffle the feathers,
tame cantankerous World Economic Forum. Come home hungry. Have to
wait until the First Lady is done with lunch with friends.
Then tell the ladies to be sure and come back real soon. And
mean it. So God gave us Trump? I need somebody who can shape an
axe. But we okay. You
John C Dvorak: got all right here it hit this. Yeah, if you
go to Paul Harvey, God made you get there. God made a farmer. So
I'll just
Adam Curry: play a little bit. Yeah, this is
Unknown: and on the eighth day. God looked down on his plan
paradise and said I need a caretaker. So God made a farmer.
Yeah, there it is. God made a farmer.
John C Dvorak: Okay, so there's a mediocre copy of that. And now
that I hear the voice is not even that great. No, Paul
Harvey's he had a tremendous set of pipes. They put Paul Harvey
Parra Javi what had been doing these little radio snippets
forever and was the Christian nationalists Magga guy I don't
know that he was any thing. I had to look it up but but I
remember the moment he was definitely a conservative
character. And I remember the moment where Hewitt at 60
minutes decided to put him on the show to add a little balance
that lasted all of like two shows. Because the regulars on
that show are a bunch of you know, lefties that has to CBS
people. Yeah. And they just wouldn't have it. They did I
think they they made his life miserable and poor
Adam Curry: Paul. And here's the rest of the story. Paul Harvey,
John C Dvorak: I'm sure he got a play a pay or play deal which
netted him some sort of care. So
Adam Curry: I think this is when it comes to Democrats. I can
just say it now in America is the division has become so and
these are political people. I mean, I'm not talking about
people just vote left but the political people Washoe County,
Washoe County, Nevada. I think it's Nevada, isn't it? Wash him.
Yeah. Wash. Oh, that's Democrat country, right? I don't know. I
think so. Don't they vote blue or they vote blue. That blue
name
John C Dvorak: is mixed area to get Nevada's mixed is pretty
much down the middle. So
Adam Curry: they had the county commission meeting and they
opened up with the consecration. Thank you
Unknown: for letting us here. My name is Jason I am an organizer
and founder of Reno satanic. And I'm here to give the invocation
today invoking again in nom de de no stress, say tennis looser,
fatty X LLC, in the name of the eternal rebel against high
radical authority in the spirit of your nature of the natural
world, the freedoms of thought and expression on prejudice,
intellectual inquiry, economics and social progress to bring
influence and guiding actions of nobility and justice to the
decisions made in this chamber today. To act with might in the
undertaking of responsibility that may lay ahead of this body
before us today. The New Age is dawning that these decisions
will play a role in for our liberation for here and now is
our day of joy. Here and now is our opportunity. May we seize
this glorious day and its enchanting nights to celebrate
the wonders of the natural world. As we are all part of its
boundless mysteries, and the spirit of the unconquerable sun,
the bringer of light and knowledge we say Shem ham for OS
hail satan.
John C Dvorak: All right. Okay, you win the show. We have tannic
ritual in front of the Washoe County, whatever group this was
planning commission or the mission. Yes. So this guy comes
out and they let it they let him do it. Of course. What is wrong
with these? Idiots? They're
Adam Curry: Satanists. Not today. Satan, we mock you. We
mock you. Oh, my goodness. What they should do? Hey, where's my
generic AI doing? And Satan created Biden. That will be
good. Who that?
John C Dvorak: I'm just saying that'd be a topper.
Adam Curry: That'd be a great topper. Yeah. All of this. All
of this, of course was really to detract from what I thought was
an outstanding rant from Vivek. Kind of say it right, because
you know, he's going for that VP slot. Vivek. I think a lot of
people would like Vivek, SVP, I doubt he's going to be vice
president. No, no way. But this was Trump behind him, smirking
and laughing and smiling was a great brand. And then
John C Dvorak: they tried to hug and they couldn't do it. By his
brother, by the way, just before we get to that clip, I wondered
because I played those twos Trump clips about, he's also
doing it unfortunate. There's no real clip for it. But he's also
now part of his act. He does Biden up on the stage can't
can't get off the stage, shaking hands with nobody and then
bumbling around and walking into a set is great. He does a whole
shtick on Biden trying to get off this off this stage. Here we
go. We believe
Unknown: ideals still exist. This man is going to be your
next president. revive them. E pluribus unum from many one. And
you know how we're doing it. We're doing it by seeking the
truth at every step of the way. There are two genders in this
country. That is the truth. Fossil fuels are a requirement
for human prosperity drill, frack, burn coal embrace nuclear
energy. reverse racism is racism. And open border is not a
border. Parents determined the education of their children. The
nuclear family is the greatest form of governance known to
mankind. Capitalism lifts us up from poverty. There are three
branches of government In the United States not for and the US
Constitution is the strongest and greatest guarantor of
freedom in human history. That is the truth.
We fight for the truth. Fantastic.
Adam Curry: And more people are starting to do this this
boldness we're seeing it everywhere. Now people are no
longer afraid of speaking against the woke stuff. There's
just, I mean, it's everywhere now. It's everywhere. So they
all this satanic trans Maoists stuff is gonna fall apart it's
not working dei corporations everywhere quietly changing
their policy. This is not the way to go anymore. But it was
that that no one wants to fly United anymore. You know, the
CEO dresses up in drag and like now Tinos like I'm gonna fly
she's flying to front and floor I'm not flying United States and
my flying it is people are nuts. So interesting. Oh, yes. The bud
light effect it that was that's definitely part of it.
Definitely, and then I won't play a clip because it's just
full of expletives. But the EU is a UFC fighter who got asked
by some Canadian woke journalist. Now how do you feel
about the trans community and you know in Bud Light sponsoring
the UFC but and he just went off? Just went off is crazy. You
know what, you know, in America. This is for all you foreigners
listening you foreigners that a lot of you listen. In America,
we still it was gone for a long time. And for a while there, it
seemed like only the Russians had humor. But you know, the
Russians would do funny stuff. This is before Ukraine. And they
had humor and there was the humor that we used to have as
Americans. We'd make fun of ourselves. We love a good joke.
We love a double entendre. We this is why the boobs thing is
very is you know, we love boobs is an American thing. I guess.
Although I think other countries love boobs to Fort Wayne,
Indiana. They have a they have a building and they had a poll
amongst the citizens. What are we going to name this thing? And
they want to name it after a famous Fort Wayne politician. I
think Harry balls be ALS. And they held the poll and the
results are in a former
Unknown: Fort Wayne mayor is getting some national attention.
1000s of people voted online to name the new city county
building in his honor,
but that probably won't happen because of his name. NewsChannel
fifteens Don Austin is here to explain, Well,
how they're marked. The people voted and the top picks so far
with more than 10,000 votes is the hairy balls Government
Center, named after one of the city's longest serving mayors,
but not everyone's on board with that name.
Harry bales apparently was a great mayor. That's what I'm
hearing if you read the comments actually people are very serious
about what he did as mayor the family was you know, it's
part of our history. I think it's part of the history we're
proud of
to pick the new name for the building people went over to
feedback fort wayne.org They made suggestions and voted the
overwhelming front runner was the hairy balls government
senator
Adam Curry: of course this is who we are we're simple people
but we'd like a good joke we want we want
John C Dvorak: the guy's name was hairy balls what he is
supposed to do.
Adam Curry: We want it to be called the hairy balls building
everybody wants that. This is who we are. This is where we are
John C Dvorak: joy you giggly glee?
Adam Curry: Yes Glee, Glee. Harry bone admits missed all of
the horrible things in the world. We got Satanists. Yeah.
Satanism
John C Dvorak: before meeting this thing is too much.
Adam Curry: Give us some hairy balls to make us feel better
please plays
John C Dvorak: are you gonna want to feel bad live in Chicago
play this frozen Tesla clip. Oh
Adam Curry: my god, this this frozen Tesla clip was all I
mean, there were at least 15 different versions of
John C Dvorak: this bunch of dead robots out here.
Unknown: Did Teslas pack the parking lot at this Tesla super
charging station in Oak Brook have seen mirrored in other
supercharging stations around the Chicago area. And it's it's
crazy is this is a disaster series. with temperatures
falling into the negative double digits. These charging ports
have stopped charging, leaving many Tesla owners stranded here
in long lines since Sunday. Nothing
no juice is put on 0%. And this was like three hours this
morning being out here after eight hours yesterday
as you've been charging. No not at all. It's just isn't working.
Adam Curry: And it's just frozen. And so I'm now going to
tow it to the justice service center because that's my only
option at this point. Oh man, I got better clips than that. Come
on. Come I like to
John C Dvorak: know why every black guy in Chicago lenses
Tesla. How does that happen? Well, there
Adam Curry: was one of these guys who was an Uber drivers
like nope, not anymore. Another guys like the handles, you know
how they recess in the Tesla? They weren't they were frozen
shots. They weren't Pauling.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that book comes out I couldn't I couldn't
Adam Curry: open my my car with the app.
Unknown: Electric vehicles may save drivers on the cost of
filling up. But this winter growing frustrations for drivers
stuck waiting at charging stations, but you still
have to wait for those other cars to get through charger
didn't even get the charge.
Uber driver Marcus Campbell says he spent hours this week
charging his car after freezing temperatures swept across
Chicago,
making no money and time was money.
The problem the cars run on lithium batteries which can take
longer to charge and cold temperatures, you may even need
to charge more often. According to AAA, the average electric
vehicles driving range decreases by 41%. When the temperature
outside dips to 20 degrees and when the cars heater or AC is on
for each electric vehicle model the EPA list of mileage but
experts say that number can be misleading.
We've seen that that is wrong on day one, and doesn't account for
weather variance. So EVs get less range in the extreme cold
and they get a little bit less range in the extreme heat.
Experts
say especially when it's cold drivers should keep their
vehicles charged overnight. Ideally in a garage and below
20%. If the battery drops to zero, the car will have to be
towed and possibly repaired. In Chicago, some Tow Truck
businesses getting a boost. Berg says he's been busy in the cold,
we have seen an increase in calls from a lot of different
owners that have electric vehicles.
While some learn to weather the inconvenience for others, that
challenges are too much.
I'll be getting the gas vehicle ASAP. It's not for you. It's not
for me.
Adam Curry: I love this little guy. No response from Tesla. We
have a sophomore year since the yesterday afternoon, no response
from Tesla. So here Tesla Of course, if you read the User
Guide, which is right near the EULA, and the terms of service
if you're if you're if these people went to a super charging
station because of course you know hey, you can charge it in
40 minutes it's almost as fast as filling up with gas.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, if you're filling up the gas at the lowest
rate possible. The supercharger
Adam Curry: will not work if your battery is under 30%
Because of the supercharge the battery has to be pre
conditioned and warmed up so people that just don't know what
they're doing they don't you have to have NCOP was oh you
have to precondition your battery and set your GPS and you
know like the Watergate secretary, you know click on the
left button and then this is not a good idea. These cars are no
good then I'm not picking on Tesla. I mean all of it it all
of us same it's fun the whole idea is falling apart. This is
very bad. I
John C Dvorak: want to remind I wish I had the clip remind you
of you doing annoying and watch ruining over the bought you
borrowed the bankers?
Adam Curry: No, I was horrible. What are you talking about? I
owe you I'm gonna get the clip right now because I'll tell you
what happened. I had to I couldn't charge it at the hotel.
So I had to drive to the university. a&m to park in the
garage and take an Uber back to the hotel I'm quite sure I was
not booing and eyeing about how cooler oh you
John C Dvorak: know how to use automatic control you drive down
the freeway and be most Cambridge users out there get me
these clips
Adam Curry: being a.io Everybody John will be very live red
cheeks. I said is horrible to have read almost drove me off
the road. Oh mass. Yes. Wow. Wow. Yes, I remember. I do to
know. You remember? You don't don't get me started. Do not
bring it.io You will see you're in dimension d right now the
comeback? What did you do with John? I said what was definitely
cool was that was how in traffic Howard will automatically drive.
But all the downsides and the white knuckle of coming back the
next day worrying that we didn't have enough juice. I remember it
very well. Yes,
John C Dvorak: I take the time you turned on the machine was
when the bankers sold the car saying you couldn't take it
anymore. Oh man.
Adam Curry: Oh, man. All right. Not sorry. I have worked to do
it and producers don't even bother.
John C Dvorak: I'll find users don't listen to him. Don't
Adam Curry: listen, because he's right, as usual. No,
John C Dvorak: not Oh,
Adam Curry: man, I can't believe that you're turning on me like
this. Yeah, this is not true.
John C Dvorak: I'm just reminding you. I'm not turning.
It's not true. The I Chevron deference talking about
gasoline.
Adam Curry: The Chevron deference, does this explain
what Chevron deference is?
John C Dvorak: Yes. In fact, this is a very complete report,
except for the fact that comes from PBS. And it's slanted very
subtly, though, it's not slanted in a strong manner. But it's
slanted enough that I could tell. And I think I have one
clip that's really short, which points out part of the problem
and this is going up when you set it up, or I'm going to set
it out by this case is fine. This is about it by boat, a crew
of herring, herring fishermen that took this case to the
Supreme Court because they weren't going to put up with
require $700
Adam Curry: a day for $700 a day to have some hire some douchebag
to be on the show they
John C Dvorak: had they had to pay for it. In other words,
they're paying for their own inspect. It's like, it's like,
okay, I can the cops come by my house once in a while. Yeah, you
have to pay well,
Adam Curry: but break it down. The Chevron deference is the
idea that Congress writes very broad and, and laws that can be
interpreted and they say, You know what, the agencies can
interpret it, the agencies can do whatever they want. And when
I say
John C Dvorak: the eight Well, no, it was it goes beyond that
the agencies can make their own rule rules. Yes. Rules. Correct.
And that's what we're dealing with, which is the
administrative state. I'd work for the Ministry of State
myself. I have a lot of experience with this. You're a
part of this machine. I was Yeah. And curious. I was a
Democrat during that era, not this.
Adam Curry: Did you ever change? News?
John C Dvorak: Let's go with this is a good breakdown. This
is a five six parter. It's very short, though. Let's go with
Chevron deference. The Supreme
Unknown: Court today heard arguments about whether a group
of Atlanta Atlantic herring fishermen should be required to
pay for a costly monitoring system on their boats, or
whether that requirement is governmental overreach. But as
William Brangham reports, the outcome of this case could have
enormous impacts far beyond the fishing industry. At issue here
is what's called the Chevron deference. It's named after the
oil and gas company whose case created this legal precedent. It
says if there is a dispute over some ambiguous regulation, the
deference should go to the government agency whose experts
wrote the rule. That's what those fishermen are arguing
against. And they're being supported by industry groups who
also want to curtail regulation. If Chevron is knocked down, it
could up end rules governing nearly every slice of American
society, health care, environmental and workplace
protections, public education, banking, and more that
Adam Curry: the end the IRS,
John C Dvorak: all of it, every agency, lot of agencies, but the
way they're presenting it as though it's the end of the
world. And there's also a very subtle subtext here that doesn't
allow people to understand where the Chevron deference came from,
which was the which was during the Reagan administration, they
lowered the Reagan wanted less and less regulation. So they
lowered they told the Vedas to push back, no, you're not going
to do that you're going to do this, you're going to lower the
rate you're going to make the regulations more lacks are going
to make things easier. This lawsuits came from environmental
groups saying Oh, no, you can't do that. Because you know, this
is not good. And so they involve Chevron. Because Chevron, I
don't know what part of Chevron was involved. But whatever the
case was, this was about the relaxing of rules, not the
increase or craziness that's going on now.
Adam Curry: It wasn't irony. Good intent. Yeah. Iron. irony,
irony
John C Dvorak: is, is just is that the max with this, and does
never discuss. Let's go with part two. To
Unknown: understand what's at stake. We're joined again by NPR
is Carrie Johnson, who was at the court for today's arguments.
Carrie, thank you so much for being back again. Sticking with
this fishermen's case, can you explain what the arguments were
in their case and how Chevron was applied there.
These plaintiffs are a small group of fishermen based in the
northeastern United States. And a few years ago, the Fisheries
Service put forward a regulation, basically requiring
them to have professional observers or monitors on their
boats, sometimes on an overnight basis to make sure they were
following the rules, and decreed that they should have to pay for
the monitors to the tune of about $700 a day, which they say
is just too much money, they say was never clear that Congress
intended for them to have to pay and so they took This case all
the way to the Supreme Court arguing that the federal agency
here had overreached against that
Adam Curry: good for those genocide. Are those eco ciders?
Good for them?
John C Dvorak: Yes, this case has been bubbling in the
background for a while. And I believe that this is the reason
that for one thing, if you recall, six months to a year
ago, they started going after Clarence Thomas. Yeah,
Adam Curry: we I think we even discussed it in the context of
it. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: And so what I uncovered is the fact that this
all began when Clarence Thomas decided he was all in on Chevron
deference. He,
Adam Curry: ah, no. flipper, he's a flip flopper.
John C Dvorak: And he decided, well, maybe it is not such a
great thing, this Chevron deference precedent. So once he
once he and that changed, he's Magga.
Adam Curry: He's a white Christian. So
John C Dvorak: Christian tonight. So once he it almost is
upon us a perfect coincidence that when he made it clear that
he might be going the other way, and Chevron deference, that's
when they start going. Yes. Your administrative state at its
worst, it is nasty. It doesn't like anybody interfering into
what it's doing. It likes to run the show. Part three,
Unknown: I see. So in that case, Chevron, the ruling was that the
government agency wrote this rule, yes, it might be onerous
on the fishermen. But that's the rule. And the agency gets to
determine that. That's
right. I in the in this case, the lower courts determined that
it was either a reasonable or a clear mandate under the law that
these fishermen would have to pay. They firmly resisted that,
and took this case all the way up to the Supreme Court where it
ended up today. So you can
see why business interests don't like this idea of some agency
basically winning every toss up ball over a fight over
regulation. What is their broader argument about this
deference principle,
ultimately, they say that this is a matter of the executive
branch of the government on elected federal bureaucrats
taking power that should belong to the United States Congress,
and to some extent to federal judges, who all along have
interpreted the law and who can interpret these laws and these
regulations just fine on their own, without any input from
federal agencies. And they say that for many years now, almost
40 of them since this case was decided back in 1984. It's
really up ended the balance of power between the branches. And
it's put a lot of onus on small businesses like these fishermen
and others, to defend themselves against federal agencies when
they have a hard time winning their you know, this case, was
supported not just by the small fishing industries, but a number
of very large conservative legal foundations, groups like The Gun
Owners of America, a trade group for e cigarette manufacturers
and others, just showing how sweeping this case could be if
the Supreme Court ultimately decides to overrule that
precedent from all those years ago.
Adam Curry: Okay, I have a question. So when you were in
the government, and a Democrat Did you feel like you were
powerful as as a member of the deep state that you had this
power to, to mess around with a little guy and to boss him
around and tell him what to do because you're with the EPA?
There were definite
John C Dvorak: Well, we were that good regional pollution
operator that's
Adam Curry: even better. So you were the little regional guy but
still had the Chevron deference
John C Dvorak: regional guys are always considered the more
powerful the groups right. I was not it I was kind of amenable I
worked in the refinery business and I knew how these things
work. There were guys that work in the agency. Absolutely. Were
a little Hitler's the SA and they would make people's life
miserable. Because they could tell us again,
Adam Curry: just quickly, just because it's so nice. Tell us
the story about Dianne Feinstein
John C Dvorak: Come on. Dianne Feinstein was a member of the of
the one of the boards that that oversaw the air pollution
distributel Hitler Hitler arena. So she was and she was a dingbat
and everybody knew it and right to the end and so she so we had
the situation in the file room, there was a
Adam Curry: I already love I forgot the file room part. Yeah.
John C Dvorak: So this is file room which is also connected to
the dispatchers and the dispatchers. Were in this like
kind of a closed group so they like to keep the door open
because it was like a pain In the essays they felt like they
were like you know a claustrophobic and the door was
also led to the fire file room and when you went to get some
files for some case or other you're supposed to sign out on
some little sheet and the dispatchers had really nothing
to do with it. But they were overseas supposed to sign these
sheets and take the files when people started just grabbing
files and not taking the sheets and so they had to go okay,
we're gonna have to do something about that. So they showed the
open door that the dispatchers definitely wanted to have
because it was claustrophobic they they put a chain across the
open door to keep people from going in and out of the file
room and just grabbing files so they have to now go through a
process to
Adam Curry: get the file right this wasn't Feinstein this was
boxer wasn't a boxer no no
John C Dvorak: this fine. Fine boxers. Boxers got another
story. Oh, boxers The one is always trying to have a
different story. Yeah, the SEC story. Yeah, that one. So
Feinstein so that so now we have the situation you got the
dispatchers in there, and you have the chain across the door.
And so Feinstein walks past without even doing any research
or giving she looks at the desk sees the two women in there.
They're the dispatchers that sees the chain, and she makes a
big fuss. Why are these women in behind a chain? This is
terrible. This is an insult to womanhood. And so she makes a
big fuss and so they have to take the chain down but now the
problem with the fall room is is still at issue so they have to
close the doors and now they're locked in this claustrophobic
area ruining their lives basically. Thanks for nothing
Dianne Feinstein. So that's the kind of person she is she's just
jumped to conclusions.
Adam Curry: Boxer was the one who wanted to get in your boxer
shorts.
John C Dvorak: Boxer was notorious. Everybody who was an
inspector was in the field and had cars she would always find
some one of the guys happen to be working Marin County or
something and try to I was told, try to not only get them to
drive her home, she didn't play them in.
Adam Curry: Didn't she want you to drive around one day panky?
Why didn't she want you to drive her home one day?
John C Dvorak: No, I've never I never got off. I never had that
area. I couldn't have driven her home. Oh, okay. I never worked
in Marin County. Wow, this
Adam Curry: was good. Thanks. Thanks for the Feinstein
reminder. So so so basically, though,
John C Dvorak: yes, the SEC was the beginning of the longer than
it should and that's good. The answer is
Adam Curry: especially at the at the local level with the smaller
regional offices. There's a lot of power power gnomes.
John C Dvorak: Now, yeah, absolutely. Like
Adam Curry: Louis from taxi, you know,
John C Dvorak: is exactly true. And there's no way you have to
assume that let's go to clip for this very short clip because I
gotta make a comment on it.
Unknown: Let's talk a little bit about that. Because the
opponents of of overturning Chevron many environmental
groups, consumer protection groups and others like that.
Okay.
John C Dvorak: Consumer Protection you man, I forgot
what I was going to say. So I'm gonna do it the environmental
groups because there's the that's where I should have
brought in the irony part of the story. They're the ones who
caused this to happen. Chevron deference, as you know, as was
caused against the environmental groups Hey, what the
deregulation that take place, but now they're all in on it. So
Adam Curry: indirectly, to think Bobby, the OP was actually a
problem within Chevron deference because he was one of these
environmental groups.
John C Dvorak: I have my you know, after seeing David people
should go read this article about Cheryl Hines and the
latest copy of The Hollywood Reporter Hollywood reporter.com
Go to thr.com and read it. It really brings out a lot of the
op. I mean, when she says well, you know, she makes us you just
comment you have to assume something's up when she says
that do other Republicans are running our rapist.
Adam Curry: She says that in the interview. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: more or less it is worded it's couched funny,
but that's basically what she said. And on trial for rapes, I
think is the way she put it. But this is like okay, this is Bobby
The Op I'm now convinced after reading that article in The
Hollywood Reporter that probably the OP is designed to run
Kennedy as an independent to take votes away from Trump as a
latch last ditch effort by the Democrats to get Biden back in
that's the only thing I can have to conclude after reading that
article. So I'm very skeptical of him okay. All right, onward
with the clip five
Unknown: of overturning Chevron many environmental groups,
consumer protection groups and others like that. argue that
this would would in essence, sow chaos. What is their argument?
Why do they say Chevron should Stay, they basically
argued that there's a hidden agenda in this case beyond the
the hearing fishermen who are the plaintiffs here, and that
it's they want to paralyze or cripple the bureaucracy so that
federal agencies cannot make rules on major problems and
American life, things from air pollution and maybe eventually
even artificial intelligence as Justice Elena Kagan raised
today, why to health care, and say if you return these
decisions to the hands of unelected federal judges, there
are something like 800 of them around the country. It risks
people's Medicare and Medicaid programs, very complex programs
that mean a lot to people's lives being decided one way in
one state and one way in in another way in another state,
and that could really sow chaos for for people's lives, just in
their personal pocketbooks, as well as for environmental
regulations and workplace protections. You just can't have
a system where the regs mean something in one state and mean
something else halfway around the country.
John C Dvorak: Okay, so that's that's the one thing they never
do is stop and say, Wait a minute. Yeah, Chevron deference
showed up in 1984. How did we even get by as a people without
What 1984
Adam Curry: What are we doing it did nothing work? Did
John C Dvorak: it work and it couldn't possibly work? So this
is bull crap. They're just trying to do the same. Oh,
scary. Oh, scare everybody to dead easy BBB. So anyway, so
there's the last time this brings in Comey Barrett?
Barrett.
Unknown: I know that in his confirmation hearings, now
justice Gorsuch expressed a great deal of skepticism. And I
know some other conservative justices similarly have shown
some antipathy to regulation. From your reading of the
arguments today. What is your sense? Do you think the majority
the conservative majority is going to strike it down?
We did hear deep skepticism from Justice Neil Neil Gorsuch today,
he raised a lot of very, very tough questions for the
Solicitor General. And Justice Brett Kavanaugh was also pretty
skeptical. Justice Samuel Alito, along the same lines, and
Clarence Thomas asked a few questions too, but those William
are four votes, and I didn't hear a clear fifth vote for
getting rid of this precedent altogether. In fact, one of the
Trump appointees justice Amy Coney Barrett, raised the
specter of getting rid of this precedent might mean, inviting
floodgates of litigation from 1000s of litigants who've had
their cases decided based on this principle over many years,
and that really swamping the courts and potentially the
Justice Department, too. So it's not clear to me there are five
votes to overturn this precedent all together. It may be that the
court compromises it chips away further at the precedent,
though.
Adam Curry: Well, that aligns very closely with what Rob the
constitutional lawyer sent me because I asked him, of course,
and he said, Of course, I'm going to I'm going to pay
attention to this for you guys. I'll read and he also gave me
something from law 360. That is highlighted some stuff. Here's
what he said. As his boots on the ground. I went back and
looked at some of the commentary on the two Chevron deference
cases argued before SCOTUS yesterday, the Loper bright
enterprise versus Raimundo and relentless Inc versus Department
of Commerce. As you know, the question is yours just how much
deference the court should give to regulatory agencies
interpretations of the legislation? They're in charge
of enforcing since 1984? The answer has been a lot. As long
as the agency's interpretation is permissible courts will adopt
it as law. This creates a tension. The Constitution
charges Congress with making laws and the judiciary with
interpreting them. It does not charge the executive branch with
either function. Still, the agencies who presumably have the
expertise usually need to fill in lots of details to do their
jobs. But how deeply should the courts bow to their
interpretations? He said, depending on who you talk to the
word is that most of the justices seem reluctantly
amenable to diluting Chevron deference but how much many
including Justice Barrett, worried that SCOTUS decision
might gut the existing agency interpretations, unleashing a
flood of litigation over now reopened questions others say
this concern is overblown, since one most of the agency
interpretations are probably right and two, if not they need
to be challenged. And he says he attached a highlighted law 360
With five takeaways from Paul Clemente and I put that in the
show notes. In a nutshell Clemente says the Congressman
can use friends in the executive branch to get things done,
instead of slogging through the presentment compromise in by
camera realism hurdles that make statutes comparatively hard to
enact. To paraphrase Obama regulatory action requires
nothing more than a phone and a pen. And so they actually that
sounded like that report was was pretty spot on. And they proud.
I think they'll dilute it. But they'll do something so they
somehow they can't get all these all these lawsuits reopened
again. I don't know how they do that.
John C Dvorak: But well, we'll find out soon enough, but this
thing should go. Oh,
Adam Curry: what what a joy it would be for, for the work.
John C Dvorak: By the way, when I worked at the, at this
administrative state, and they already were lording it over
everybody else. That was before Chevron deference.
Adam Curry: Oh, is that long ago? So you were already a
little Hitler's before it that happened? Imagine what
John C Dvorak: all the way I see it. Chevron deference once the
Republicans got out of office, because when the Republicans
were in office, don't forget, the Chevron deference began as a
way to deregulate. That's the funny part. That's the irony.
And then once they got out the this is the problem with
everything is, you know, you switch parties, and the next
thing you know, they go nuts the other way. And they started
abusing power, which is what's been going on this is why the
gun shops get closed. Because the the ATF and others they
create new rules. And there's stories about some gun shop
owner that forgot to put a Yeah, yeah. And they closed the shop.
Yeah, got to sign his name properly, or print his name
under a signature. And so they close the shop. All this is all
a result of Chevron deference. Everything bad that's happening
in the administrative state is the is the fault of Chevron
deference again, 1984 It's when it began. And it's just gotten
to the point where it's gotta go. And if there's cases if a
bunch of cases show up because Comey Baird doesn't want to do
any work. Or she's just you know, still thinking like a
judge that's out there. Leave
Adam Curry: it she she's the only true white Christian there.
She should be all Magga is what's wrong with her.
John C Dvorak: That's always the irony of these things. I would
like to
Adam Curry: take us back to Episode 1337 of this very
podcast. Have a listen to minutes. This funny do that.
Okay, great. So I get in the car and I driven it before I'm
sitting down and he drives off in the truck. I'm like, I forgot
how to start this thing. That's how stupid it was, like, already
starts off the car is stupid. You don't have to start it. You
just got to put it into Drive. I can I was looking for a button.
You know, like my truck has a button. You press the button,
the car starts. So that's how disoriented I was. But anyway, I
remember how it works. I started driving and he left me with
about it said 200 miles on the on the range the range meter. So
I started driving. Now this is a multiple
John C Dvorak: you stopped this clip. You're you referenced in
that clip that you're just starting to play. I've driven it
before. That's the report where you went on and on about how
great it was not the second report or the third report or
what you say today. So this is a nonsense what you're doing.
Adam Curry: I never did a report other than this one. No.
John C Dvorak: I've you first drove it you do gave a report.
Adam Curry: All right. I'll just put it in the show notes. People
can listen for themselves. You're right. I probably
shouldn't embarrass you any further.
John C Dvorak: Not an embarrassment. You're just
proving my point. No, there is no report in that report. You
yourself said I've driven it before and blah blah blah.
That's when that's when the first report came out because
you talked about driving it the first time you are
Adam Curry: mediocre. This is not true. This is the report
where I said the thing is dangerous. I said it almost ran
me off the road it was horrible. That's
John C Dvorak: right and I'm not arguing but this report is what
I'm talking about are
Adam Curry: people find find the previous report because it
doesn't exist. They will the only report
John C Dvorak: is rarely Moonbase as they'll find it.
Yeah.
Adam Curry: Boy, you really hurt me with that one Oof. Boy,
Israeli Moonbase is that
John C Dvorak: you are in denial about that for God at least a
year. I've
Adam Curry: never said that. I've never gone back on that.
I've always said there was Israeli Moon bases I've never
said
John C Dvorak: There you go shabby never. Everyone knows
what you're doing. Nice try.
Adam Curry: How about we talk about the latest scare that is
has everybody all up in arms? Because it's back. It's back
disease X disease X is back and the Chinese are doing it disease
Unknown: X is a term for a hypothetical illness, one that
has not happened and is currently unknown. In this
scenario, experts from around the globe are evaluating what
would happen and what we would need to do in order to prepare
for a virus that could claim up to 20 times more law is the
COVID 19 pandemic. in Davos, the disease X scenario took center
stage Wednesday, you may
even call COVID as the first disease X. And it may happen
again, the WHO
Director General acknowledges tough lessons were learned
during COVID-19.
We lost many people because we couldn't manage them. They could
have been saved, but they couldn't marry them. There's no
space, there was no enough. So how can you have a system that
can expand when the need comes? This
bioethics professor says the pandemic showed us how one
disease absorbing all available resources can lead to other
health issues falling through the cracks.
A cancer diagnosis did not take place with very severe
consequences for the people that were affected.
Blink says there are also ethical questions to consider
when preparing for the next big health emergency.
Do we try to limit the number of of lives that we lose? Or do we
limit the number of life years that we lose? To what extent
should we be concerned about equity considerations or we're
just concerned about health outcomes?
he cautions Canada is not ready. There will be
wholly unprepared for this because we are under resourced.
We don't have the staff and we don't have the bits available.
So it will be a major problem obviously,
anything happening is a matter of when not if
Adam Curry: so, so this is picked up by outfits around the
world because now we have a report there's an actual report
someone has a report and gravi toss India this is where Paki
palki Sharma is used to work they've got the the crux of it
that
Unknown: Sinai is asked again, it's playing with fire. What I
mean to say is, it is experimenting with a deadly new
COVID-19 stream as per report and this one has a mortality
rate of 100%. Right. None of those who have been infected
with it has survived.
Adam Curry: When I heard that I'm like what people have been
infected and they died that none of the people who are infected
with this new disease x this new virus from China have survived
what Tada look
Unknown: at this report published in bio RX iwi doctors
trained by Chinese People's Liberation Army are conducting
these experiments. They have made their own version of
Coronavirus found in pangolins. The scientists administer this
labmate virus in mice. Guess what they discovered, mice
started losing weight blockers their eyes went white. All of
this happened after five days of being infected. The virus threat
to their eyes, their lungs and even the brain. All four mice
infected with the new COVID-19 stream died in eight days. In
the last two days of their lives, the virus increased in
the brains significantly what caused the deaths. Researchers
suggest it was severe brain infection. The intensity of this
new strain is astounding. And it has set alarm bells ringing by
the way, Chinese scientists have issued warnings they fear the
virus strain can spill over to human beings. And what would
happen then would lead to a pandemic all over again.
Adam Curry: So this this type of reporting has Oh, No one
survived. It turns out it was mice and they turned into first
they lost weight which is a groovy and then the the eyes
went white and a brain disease and they all died and it's all
China. It's gotten so crazy that we got a Fox News poll
everyone's talking about on Twitter x. Let's bring in
Redfield Redfield, you recall was the CDC director who left
during the pandemic. And he's back to this
Unknown: morning growing concerns as we learned growing
consumers are experimenting with a mutant COVID strain 100% A
Adam Curry: mutant mutant COVID strain Oh, who writes this
stuff? Scientists
Unknown: are experimenting with a mutant COVID strain 100%
lethal in mice. Despite critics warning this research could
spark another pandemic. Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield
is here to react. Good morning, Dr. Redfield.
Adam Curry: Good morning. What are you here for? I'm here to
react again. Why
Unknown: would they do this again?
Well, you know, as Lee I'm very much against the wisdom of doing
this gain of function research. I mean, I'm of the view that the
original COVID pandemic was a direct consequence of laboratory
research that helped educate the virus to become more
transmissible, human to human, not more pathogenic. And the
work you talk about today is work that they're doing that
actually is changing the pathogenicity of these viruses,
I think until we really have a better debate about whether
there's any value in this gain of function research, we ought
to have a moratorium on it. And clearly we don't have the bio
containment up to par to do this kind of research. I think it's
very dangerous. But
Adam Curry: what's really dangerous is the reporting on
all this and how This swirls around on social media and
before you know it, disease X is a thing. And it's happening. But
there's something he said in this not only the second one,
the second clip that made me connect a few dots. People
Unknown: have been wondering if it was Fred because of a lab
leak and his ex boss was talking to Congress. That headline on
Fox News is Fauci is ex boss now says COVID-19 lab leak theory
was credible, despite previous claims, it was a distraction. So
now he's saying that, but he downplayed it when he was
interviewed with Bret Baier back in 2021, listen to this,
I'm really sorry that the lab leak has become such a
distraction for so many people, because frankly, we still don't
know there is no evidence, really, to most of the
scientific community, myself included, think that is a
possibility. But far more likely, this was a natural way
in which a virus left a bat maybe traveled through some
other species and got to humans. But
now he's saying it is credibly told Congress that how can we
trust the NIH? And why is he changing his story now?
Well, you know, I'm very disappointed in both him and
Fauci that they didn't provide the scientific leadership in
January, February of 2022, aggressively investigate both
hypotheses to spill over in the lab leak. That's normally what
the scientific community would do. Instead, they very rapidly
sort of rally the troops around one idea that just had to come
from a spillover even though I will say over the last three to
four years, all the evidence that's been gathered points more
towards lab leaks. And, and obviously, we haven't found any
evidence to support the spillover. Now, they did this, I
think largely because they thought they were protecting
science. And the science that they were protecting, is this
gain of function research that they want to do. But in fact,
they did the opposite. I think we've lost a lot of credibility
in both NIH and unfortunately, CDC because of their lack of
transparency.
Adam Curry: So here's what I some dots I connect, because you
know, I'm, I'm a no virus guy, you definitely say there's a bio
weapon. We had dinner earlier this week with the ER doctor.
And I said, Tell me what is. This seems like it was just the
flu people were dying from the flu from fear. He says, this is
I just connected this this morning. He says yes, but he
says, I saw people with this white lung stuff. He says, that
was some kind of bio weapon. Is it perhaps possible that a bio
weapon, an actual bio weapon was accidentally released, then I'm
just gonna say it was us whether it was the labs we had in
Ukraine, which would make total sense gotta clean that up, or
whether it was for Dietrich, but some bio weapon got out. And
maybe that was the early or maybe I was wrong about those
early cartridges, you know, the vape cartridges that people gave
them white lung and they died, maybe that was an actual bio
weapon. And to cover it up. They came up with this whole COVID
thing.
John C Dvorak: This seems to elaborate to me. Okay. All
right.
Adam Curry: For sure. They no one seems to be able to come to
terms with what is happening. We have a excess Dez in the UK,
which is being actively discussed in parliament there
10% 7% year on year, it should in fact, be going down. It
should be a deficit. But it's not it's going up. And now we
are seeing this here in the United States. It's showing up
with these cancers and younger people. And what could it come
from an
Unknown: alarming trend? Colorectal cancer is now the
leading cause of cancer deaths in men under the age of 50. And
the second among women of the same age.
We do suspect a something in the environment. But what that is,
we don't know likely it's a combination of things that's
affecting our microbiomes or our immune systems that may be
leading to why this is happening. younger and younger.
Dr.
Kimmy ng is an oncologist at Boston's Dana Farber Cancer
Institute. And he's seen a dramatic increase in patients in
their 20s and 30s. Younger people tend to have more
advanced cancers, correct?
Yes, the majority of our young patients who are diagnosed
unfortunately are diagnosed with either stage three or four
colorectal cancer.
Adam Curry: That was NBC CBS has a similar report. I do
Unknown: want to ask you about the American Cancer Society
today reporting colon cancer is killing more young men and women
than ever before. You are a gastroenterologist what is going
on?
Yet? We've been concerned about this. We've seen that younger
people are increasingly affected, which is why the
guidelines for initial screening for people at average risk has
fallen from 50 to 45. Why has it done that? Well, maybe there's
something in the environment something we're eating are
increasing obesity, which is linked to an increased risk for
colon cancer. Is it our inactivity? Or is it something
in the microbiome, the trillions of bacteria in our gut and
somehow the environment, something we're eating or
antibiotics are changing that and increasing the risk? We
don't know. But we're going to end with good news, which is
that every year for the last 30 years, the total deaths from
colon cancer have dropped, which is a terrific achievement. But
today's report shows us we can't be complacent and we really have
to screen screening works. You need to talk to your healthcare
provider
Adam Curry: these people Kockums razor for a moment people.
That's really what a disservice they're doing what a disservice.
Unbelievable.
John C Dvorak: They just don't want to come to grips with the
thesis that is the vaccine is causing these issues. We had a
guy just dropped another drug suddenly dropped dead to some a
heart attack. 45 years old. I'm one of the executives of New
Warriors, you know, and it's just like, okay.
Adam Curry: Yeah, like, exactly, huh, whoa, whatever. It's
unbelievable. It really is.
It's not everybody, by the way. Don't don't all get freaked out.
But it seems so obvious. And it's never discussed. Never.
They just can't touch it.
John C Dvorak: No, of course not. Because who's the leading
advertiser on television and the news media is they've captured
it's a captured is a captured situation captured, captured is
the word. Yes. That's the word of the day. Let's go to this.
You had NATO guy on earlier, because you were doing that
thing on the data. Bags. Yeah. Here's another one of these guys
is discussing the Ukraine war with an ex NATO hotshot. on PBS.
This is quite entertaining. They reported
Unknown: earlier negotiations over funding for border
security. Earlier today I spoke with former NATO Secretary
General Anders full Grace mucin. About what this means as
Russia's war in Ukraine enters its third year. And as well,
Ross mucin. Thank you so much for being here. Welcome to the
NewsHour. Thank you for having me. So I want to ask you about
US lawmakers inability so far, to reach a deal on immigration
that would allow Ukraine aid to move forward. You've said
previously you would advise Democrats to accommodate
Republicans on the border, cut a deal get the aid flowing. I know
you're meeting with House Freedom Caucus members tomorrow.
What's your advice to them? My
advice would be to do what it takes to ensure that Ukraine
wins the war against Russia, because it is detrimental for
the US national security interest. If Russia wins this
war, we cannot allow Putin any success in Ukraine. There
is a very real chance that former President Donald Trump
will be the Republican nominee that he could win in November.
If aid for Ukraine does not move forward under the Biden
administration. Do you believe it could move forward under
President Trump? Yes,
we don't know. As a point of departure. I'm skeptical. When
you look forward, though, into the months ahead and what could
happen here in the US you've said that even if Mr. Trump
doesn't win, you said his nomination alone could be a
geopolitical catastrophe. Why?
Adam Curry: I didn't get any clips, but Zelinsky was in Davao
Dubbo. And he was is he was talking about the peace formula.
Peace formula, which is unclear. Anyway, and he was meeting with
the bankers he was there. They're meeting about the
reconstruction already. They gotta end this thing. But this
guy's a military guy just wants to sell more things that go
boom.
John C Dvorak: Well, I'd like to know I'm watching PBS is in
America is I think PBS is United States, right? It's not I'm not
getting a feed from Mexico. Are you sure? I don't know who's so
why is this guy even being interviewed at all? And why is
he up on Capitol Hill? chatting it up with the Peace coalition
and whoever else is there? What is he got to do with the slice
of Buddha slice? Because you got to do with rice or bread or the
slice for that matter? What is this guy sales got to do with
anything and let alone being it. This is beyond me.
Adam Curry: He's a sales guy he's selling for the military
industrial complex.
Unknown: It goes on his part too, because I have seen that.
The fact that he is around the fact that he probably will be
nominated as the Republican presidential can The date
already that has changed the way international actors, they take
decisions, they try to hedge their bets. and in Europe, for
instance, there is a great concern that a new
administration might be more inward looking more
isolationist, that they will leave Europe behind. I don't
think that would be in the interest of the United States to
weaken its alliances across the Atlantic. On the contrary, we
should strengthen the Transatlantic Alliance.
Can I ask you about what we've seen in the US public, though,
which is some decline in support for continuing the same level of
us funding for Ukraine, and specifically, this idea that
European nations should be doing more? Should Europe be bearing
more of the security burden, especially when it comes to
Ukraine? Yes.
And we are doing so latest figures demonstrate that Europe
has now overtaken the US when it comes both to military
assistance and direct financial assistance led late last year?
Yes, we are not speaking about pledges who is being about real
money. When it comes to the military. According to those
figures, Europe has contributed 54 billion euros, the US 44
billion euros dye
Adam Curry: question those numbers. I do too, I thought we
were well over 100 billion.
John C Dvorak: I think this guy's full of crap. Well,
Adam Curry: you got to catch up people that can't have the
European spending more on military stuff we need to spend.
John C Dvorak: And then you can kind of tell when you listen to
his last clip, which is that what they want us to do, which
is give them everything, including the most high tech of
high tech products. So the Russians guy geskin would get a
hold of them and copy them or the Chinese because that's what
they're going to end up happening. If you do that. I
just thought this was a disgusting example of PBS.
Bringing in some this guy, this guy annoys me, let's play.
Unknown: I appreciate that the Europeans contribute more, they
should, we should do so. But it cannot replace a continued US
assistance. We need both. We need sophisticated weapons
delivered by the United States. And we need more weapons. We
need to lift all self imposed restrictions on weapon
deliveries to Ukraine. So the mantra that we will help Ukraine
for as long as it takes, it should be replaced with we will
give to Ukraine. All it takes to win the war.
There's been a lot of criticism that had the US and NATO Allies
done that sooner the war might have been over by now Ukraine
would be in a different position. It took 300 days into
the war for the US, for example, to provide long range missiles
President Solinsky had been asking for. Was that a mistake?
Yes, it's really. I mean, it's a sad story to see our hesitation.
And the reason why they equate the Ukrainian counteroffensive
have been so difficult, and so modest, is that we took much too
long time to take necessary decisions. You cannot win a war
by an incremental step by step approach. You have to overwhelm
and surprise your adversary. We failed to do that.
Adam Curry: Oh, man. Well, there's a plan. They got a plan.
Because yes, is no longer pulling his weight. Jens
Stoltenberg. He's not doing it. He's not getting you know, he
sits in Davos. He's got the he's living it up doing caviar bumps.
And you know that we need more war to make peace. It's like I'm
here, but he's been there for 10 years. He's been he's contracts
been extended over and over again. And now they're looking
for a new leader. It's
Unknown: been one of the most popular guessing games in
Brussels for years. Who will replace Jens Stoltenberg, the
Norwegian NATO chief has been asked to stay on as head of the
Western military alliance four times, once, even after he'd
already accepted another job. It
is time for NATO leaders to find a good candidate. It's really
important that a choice is made early enough and that it is
delinked from both the European union elections and the campaign
for the United States elections. Just why
the alliance has been unable to find a suitable replacement is
not exactly clear, in part because There's no official
procedure for doing so. There has been an unofficial list of
desired qualities experienced as a head of state or government of
a country with robust defense spending from a southern or
Eastern ally and preferably finally a woman. Many names have
come up and gone down. Currently Latvian Foreign Minister
Christianity's current Estonian Prime Minister Kaya goalless and
outgoing Dutch Prime Minister Mark Ruta all want the job route
it has gradually emerged as the clear favorite, a safer choice
with Moscow's war on Ukraine dominating the Alliance agenda.
Adam Curry: So I've been following this for a while
because Margaret, of course is Dutch. The Prime Minister was
prime minister for 12 years or something. If they want a woman
that's the guy you want. Get him if they want a woman put him in
charge. He's to he was in HR at at Unilever. Before he became
prime minister. He is a as we say in the old country, a silk
sock. He's just a worse he's silk
Unknown: sauce
silk sock.
John C Dvorak: He has what they call an old country.
Adam Curry: Zetas sock, silk sock?
John C Dvorak: Well, we're while we're on the topic of the old
country, we might as well play this clip. Oh, boy. This is
Claire Daly going off on Biden. Yet. This
Adam Curry: is this is a nice little rant. Our old Claire did
despite
Unknown: the catastrophic death toll it has inflicted, Israel is
losing on the ground. And in the courts of public opinion.
There's no way that this ends that doesn't leave Israel, a
pariah state with occupation and apartheid on borrowed time. And
they know it. So they're doing everything they can desperate
acts of aggression to provoke a wider conflict with Lebanon with
Iran with anybody to draw in the US to save them from the
consequences of their own actions. And as Yemen shows,
butcher Biden is reporting for juicy so take notes, butcher by
the ancestors of the Ireland that you claim to be from disown
you keep our company out of your mouth,
Adam Curry: butcher Biden, they need to chant they need to
chant, I need a chance to incorporate that. I just want to
go back to your military industrial complex for a moment,
because they're having such a hard time just keeping with the
show theme here. having such a hard time finding a body double
for Lloyd Austin. There just can't
John C Dvorak: be It can't be done there. Just yet to find an
ex NFL guy. Probably a lineman. Yeah. And he's got to be the
last like six for some problem because you can get the fridge.
Tonight, you have to be careful about who you're hiring nowadays
if you need it if he's going to need a body double, because some
guys are just going to be hard to replace. I know Trump I'm
sure there's two of them. So they're distracting us
Adam Curry: with the 911. Call tonight
Unknown: ABC News obtaining the 911 call requesting an ambulance
at the home of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin after complications
from the surgery. He kept a secret at first oh nine
John C Dvorak: federal employee called Yeah, it took them this
long to create a phony 911 call for the for the media.
Adam Curry: Have you heard the call is great. Oh, the call is
fantastic. And listen to the call like I got some of the
call. 911
Unknown: Where's your emergency?
Tonight the 911 call just obtained by CBS News reveals an
aide to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin asked the
dispatcher to keep the emergency discreet.
They can ambulance not show up with lights and sirens. We're
trying to remain a little subtle. Yeah, I understand.
Yeah, usually when they turn into a residential neighborhood,
they'll turn them off, but they're required by law to run
with them with the Main Street.
The operator then asks for details about Austin's can
What's
Adam Curry: your question?
John C Dvorak: What is this nonsense about turning the
lights on and off and
Adam Curry: well they didn't want to want to keep it subtle
you know? Because we know we don't want what's your Biden to
know I guess I don't know this is this is some helper at his at
his resume
John C Dvorak: this is a no I've just not that I did not you
mention it is so that when when they canvass anyone in his
neighborhood about the the ambulance they kill I don't
remember. Because there was no lights and sirens Yes, exactly.
Yeah. Like he's gonna pass out. Oh,
Adam Curry: you mean so? Oh, that's a good point. Well, it
was done on the Qt on the DL. So yeah, so no one no no witnesses
John C Dvorak: policy because if you did listen to her as a
policy that you keep the license overnight and the main drags but
when you go into the residential areas, you turn them off. Yes.
Unknown: Austin was taken to the hospital on New Year's Day with
an infection that stemmed from complications and After surgery
to treat prostate cancer just over two weeks earlier, in a
statement, Austin's doctor said he had severe pain in his leg,
hip and abdomen from
Adam Curry: the shrapnel.
Unknown: I'm just curious if we need to take him to Walter Reed
medical, is that a possibility? Let them know that when they get
there, like I said, I'm noting all this in the call the
911 call adds to questions about why President Biden did not find
out about Austin's hospitalization for three days.
Neither did his deputy who had taken over Austin's duties while
she was on vacation in Puerto Rico. Despite calls for Austin's
resignation. The president says he's not considering firing him.
I do.
Yes, but tonight The Pentagon has not responded to our request
for a comment about that 911 Call. The inspector general
though continues to investigate why it took Austin so long to
disclose his hospitalization, all
Adam Curry: distraction. And then of course, he's now
released, we still don't have him waving from the balcony
defense
Unknown: secretary Lloyd Austin was released from Walter Reed
Medical Center today after being treated for complications that
follow up prostate cancer surgery. His treatment and
complications had been kept secret for days, prompting
widespread criticism. The Pentagon said Austin will
continue to recuperate and perform his duties from home
Adam Curry: and now they're saying they think he may need
additional care is not good. They
John C Dvorak: where's he waving from the balcony. I don't know
if maybe some new listeners just showed up for the show should
know what the thesis is, which we're kind of skirting, which is
that he was killed in a Ukraine attack. He was in Ukraine on the
first or the second of January, and he got killed in a in a in
an attack. And so now they're trying to if they haven't come
up with a good story yet for ways missing. I mean, they're
working on it. They're working on it as we can tell.
Adam Curry: Meanwhile, we have. We've got a kerfuffle down here
in Texas. Now we're Texas is fighting the federal government.
Yes,
John C Dvorak: it's a good story. Do you have any? I have
two clips. Tonight tragedy on the Rio Grande escalating a
border battle between the ocean and Texas centered around
federal authorities access to the border. The Department of
Homeland Security issuing a letter to the State's Attorney
General demanding Texas immediately cease and desist any
actions. Now blog Border Patrol has full access to the US Mexico
border in and around the Shelby Park area. That Eagle Pass park
near where a migrant woman and two children drowned late
Friday. The rescue response highly disputed. The White House
stating Texas officials blocked US Border Patrol from attempting
to save the migrants. Texas authorities calling that wholly
inaccurate sharing by the time Border Patrol requested access.
Mexican authorities were already recovering the bodies.
Unknown: It's devastating to imagine that state officials
would know that people were drowning in the river
particularly children and block Border Patrol from going and
saving them.
John C Dvorak: Just hours before the drownings the state's
governor defending its border presence. Texas has the legal
authority to control ingress and egress into any geographic
location in the state of Texas. Back in Eagle Pass 700 white
crosses marking the estimated migrant deaths over the last
year. And tonight DHS is giving Texas that deadline of this
Wednesday to stop blocking border patrol or that will
further matter to the Department of Justice.
Adam Curry: Civil War maybe Civil War as Tim Poole can be
civil war and pull up to say that Civil War Civil War. CBS
had to report to the
Unknown: Texas National Guard abruptly seized control of a two
and a half mile stretch of the southern border last week. DHS
says on Friday federal Border Protection agents requested
access to the area where a group of migrants was attempting to
cross the Rio Grande but Texas officials refused a woman and
her two children drowned in a cease and desist letter to the
Texas Attorney General. The top lawyer for DHS said Texas is
failure to provide access to the border persists, even in
instances of imminent danger to life and safety. Calling the
state's actions clearly unconstitutional.
It's all politics, visual politics. Texas Congressman
Henry Cuellar says this state prevented federal aid ants from
using specialized equipment to save the migrants who died.
A scope truck is a truck that has this camera that can see
what's happened in the river that could have had an impact of
what happened here.
What is your message to Governor Abbott?
You cannot do this type of standoff is not helpful. The
Texas
military department says two of the migrants had already drowned
by the time Border Patrol asked to enter the area. Governor Greg
Abbott says he has the legal authority to control areas of
the southern border within state boundaries authority is being
asserted with regard to that park and Eagle Pass Texas to
maintain operational control of Texas blames the Biden
administration for not doing enough. It has also installed
controversial razor wire and changed the law to allow state
police officers to apprehend migrants, Texas has until
Wednesday to comply with the cease and desist letter to stop
blocking access to the border. If it fails, DHS says it will
refer the matter to the Department of Justice to take
appropriate action
John C Dvorak: and desist letter does this suggestion.
Adam Curry: The boats what's the whole thing is so strange
because we've got the governor of Illinois Pritzker taking out
ads in our papers here saying please, please, Governor Abbott,
stop sending them to Chicago, New York is overrun. They now
have to have a curfew for migrants
John C Dvorak: they should be happy and we should mention we
should mention that abas total number of people sent to New
York for example is 10%. Yeah, the total of migrants that are
there have to 90% sent by our government. Yes.
Adam Curry: Yes. I know. But you know, then they just bring in
the oh what a mom and two kids died, which of course is
horrible. This whole thing is horrible as a human catastrophe.
But if you say no moss, no, that's a Spanish for no. If you
say no, you can't come in anymore. People will stop
coming. But that's not the plan.
John C Dvorak: Though they want it or they
Adam Curry: totally want an awesome beach and this is
happening everywhere in the world. The UK,
John C Dvorak: I have an international conspiracy. It
truly isn't
Adam Curry: international conspiracy. This is the UK. You
recall the plan there by the Conservative Party. Rishi
shamrock was to send them to Rwanda
John C Dvorak: which I still love. I
Adam Curry: still well, they they passed it they can send
them to Rwanda but nobody likes
Unknown: it the eyes to the right 320 the nose to the left
276 In
the end, only a handful of Conservative MPs voted against
the government. The promise rebellion against a new version
of the Rwanda plan melted away. And Rishi Sunak avoided a
serious political defeat on his own MPs still don't think his
new law is tough enough. Migrants will be able to appeal
their deportation too easily. Judges in the European Court of
Human Rights will still be able to block flights to Rwanda. We
have Sunak insisted making it tougher will put the UK in
breach of international agreements. The law will work as
a deterrent. It is important that we stop the votes because
illegal migration is simply not fair. It's not right, that some
people jumped the queue.
Adam Curry: That, by the way, is a good line in the UK. But all
you gotta do is hey, these people tried to jump the queue.
Now the pitchforks come out, that they
Unknown: take away our resources to help those who are the most
compassionate that need our most help, and by the way, Mr.
Speaker are exploited by gangs, and many of them lose their
lives making these dangerous crossing. Last year, the UK
Supreme Court ruled the original Rwanda plan was illegal because
the judges said Rwanda was not a Safe Third Country. This new law
aims to address those concerns, strengthen his legal status and
allow flights to Rwanda to start in a few months. The rebel said
he was still too vulnerable to legal delay. We have
to get people out of the country within days, not months. And the
operational plan behind this bill foresees that people will
take months to be removed from the country.
The Labour opposition said no version of the plan will ever
work. Immigration here and across Europe is a key election
issue. Governments everywhere are under pressure to control
their borders
Adam Curry: everywhere, everywhere, everywhere,
everywhere. So international conspiracy is right apnea and
everyone loves it because China's dead more reports
China's popular nation is dwindling and as the former New
York banker said we win because we have more people and I hear
more and more people saying you know we need you know people to
take care of our children to polish our shoes to clean our
toilets. We need this we need this we're very rich here we
need that. Where's anyway stupid I got a boots on the ground from
the region. From the realest region, the region would be the
Red Sea region regarding the the boat, the museum the tourist
attraction,
John C Dvorak: oh yes, yes, we need a boots on the ground
report on that.
Adam Curry: boots on the ground reports secondhand boots on the
ground here doing some significant tile work for a
higher up at traveler's insurance. I started talking to
him about supply chain you fill me in about the first boat that
was taken and turned into a tourist attraction. See?
John C Dvorak: This is good. Hilarious already.
Adam Curry: This is good. Travelers insures that ship. He
says that the ransom for the crew was $5 million, and they
are about to cut a check for it. The owner of the boat company
Meyer SC doesn't want the check to be cut but instead wants
travelers to send in a squad to extract the crew. Traveler says
No way. He's trying to get the crew released via the ransom
payment instead. So ransom that no one mentioned that part. I
John C Dvorak: haven't heard anything about a ransom. No, of
course, all I heard was about the tourist attraction, which I
still think probably bullcrap. But it's great
Adam Curry: story. And then, overnight, we had a little
kerfuffle between Iran and Pakistan. And the minute I heard
the report, I remembered this region.
Unknown: What do we know about the Pakistan strikes?
They say that they've targeted Aluche militants. That's a
separatist group that actually operates within Pakistan. But
they're saying they targeted them on Iranian territory. But
of course, this is widely being seen as retaliation or a show of
strength after Iran actually conducted missile and airstrikes
on Pakistan's territory on a militant group a few days ago.
So now both Pakistan and Iran have now attacked militants on
each other's soil, could this escalate further? It's quite
unclear what's going to happen next. But there are real
concerns and fears, particularly here in Islamabad that things
could escalate. Pakistan's caretaker Prime Minister was in
Davos for the World Economic Forum. And he has actually said
he's cutting short his trip and coming back to Pakistan in the
wake of these strikes. However, analysts have spoken to have
said that Pakistan probably wouldn't want an escalation, and
that players such as China, which has ties with both Iran
and Pakistan, could well step in to try and help temper down the
tensions.
And how do these exchanges fit into the wider conflict in the
Middle East,
it is quite difficult to say Iran, nations actually remain
quite opaque for the initial stripes. However, Iran has also
carried out strides on Iraq and Syria in recent days and around
foreign minister has indicated that it did target militants
that it said will link to Israel within Pakistan, though we don't
have a lot more information on that and Pakistan and the
militant group involved have not said anything on that. But
obviously there are concerns that it could be part of these
broader regional escalations. This
Adam Curry: is That's bull crap. This is Baluchistan. And since I
remember things so well Baluchistan, that is right by
the Afghan border. We had drones flying around all the time. This
was a huge problem because of pipelines, and some other
things. And if we go back to Episode 1273, from 2020 This was
one of your clips. This is about Belton road.
Unknown: In June, the CCP launched its plans for a
transportation corridor to Uzbekistan, that goes through
Kurdistan as business news website and telling his reports
whoever the program to build a railway has met with quote
unending construction delays. The program now relies on
freight shipping through Kurdistan where anti CCP
sentiments are growing and the issues that CCP faces in
Kurdistan are similar to what the Chinese regime is facing and
similar projects, including in Tajikistan, and Balochistan. And
all of these areas, China is becoming the target of terrorist
and nationalist movements that are increasingly viewing the
regime as their main enemy. To counter this, the CCP has been
giving training to local government forces and also
encouraging them to defend China's shipping lines on its
behalf. But it's now becoming clear this may not be enough.
Now, where's this all heading? When it comes to the way the
Chinese Communist Party is trying to protect it? supply
chains when it comes to shipping along this, say One Belt, One
Road initiative, its current method when dealing with
terrorist organizations and others is to get the local
countries to defend its own supply chains. These countries a
lot of times, however, do not want to get involved with
terrorist organizations and fighting against them on behalf
of the Chinese Communist Party. And so the CCP is now being left
with that effort. And what's it going to do well as two options,
one is send the Chinese military in to protect its supply chains,
but doing that as sensitive as well, because for example,
imagine that the Chinese military gets in a shootout with
different to say, you know, radical groups of one kind or
another in these countries. Well, it's gonna look a whole
lot like what happened in India along this border dispute where
the Chinese military killed around 20 Indian soldiers and
turn pretty much all of India against the CCP.
Adam Curry: This is Belton road this is someone messing with the
Chinese and it may be us for all I know I'm convinces us Yeah,
then probably and I'm also the Ron cook keeps keep coming
John C Dvorak: back don't let it go directly at Iran. But you
know what, what nation has nukes?
Adam Curry: Via Pakistan, India, Pakistan, Pakistan Pakistan has
nukes Yeah, and
John C Dvorak: now you want to get their phony baloney
conflagration with Iran and Pakistan and then a nuke goes
flying and hits some I don't know the Enclave or all the
Mulas live you know the housing development boom blow that up
affordable housing for the moolah affordable housing for
them and and oh Pakistan Oh then then you create all kinds of
issues because now you got to do a more bigger look at
disarmament and all these other things because it was careless
or was an accident or and we got nothing to do with it. We're
over here trying to be your shoot a few who's the basis? I
do have a three by three foot I
Adam Curry: was hoping you'd have on an hour time for a three
by three everybody experiment by JC D here we go everyone
comparing ABC CBS and NBC my buddy my buddy Michael actually
the whole band Mercy Me they always say that whenever that
day get happy when they hear the jingle the three by three jingle
they get happy. Say Happy jingles happy jingle and they're
just happy because they know something good is coming. We're
gonna we're gonna we're going to see how the media gets all of
its information from one source game one system one source and
including the sound effects everything. What do we have in
today's
John C Dvorak: first of all, we have the same big three but I do
have the bonus again this show BBC bonus. Always different is
gonna be CBC. The Scandinavian bonus. Right? Yeah. So let's
start with ABC,
Adam Curry: ABC, everybody. Here we go.
Unknown: desperate search for two Navy SEALs missing at sea in
the Gulf of Aden during that during nighttime mission. These
new images tonight showing the US efforts to disrupt the flow
of weapons to Iranian backed Houthi rebels while boarding a
suspected Yemeni weapons smuggling boat. One Navy SEAL
fell into the sea following protocol. Another senior NCO
jumping in after him the operation continuing with the
seals seizing these weapons revealed in new images tonight,
materials used to build missiles, the same weapons
deployed by the Houthis and at least 30 attacks on commercial
shipping vessels. That's a
significant operation that they haven't historically done. So
this shows that they're escalating their interdiction
operations and they're also approving things that they
typically do not.
Tonight, the Pentagon saying it launched another round of
airstrikes inside Yemen destroying for hooty anti ship
ballistic missiles prepared to launch the operation marks the
third round of retaliatory strikes against the Houthis
since Thursday amid the ongoing attack on vessels in the Red Sea
and the Gulf of Aden since mid November, disrupting one of the
world's busiest shipping routes. And National Security Adviser
Jake Sullivan warning there could be additional strikes,
we anticipated the Houthis would continue to try to hold this
critical artery at risk. And we continue to reserve the right to
take further action but this needs to be an all hands on deck
effort.
And David an official tells us the White House intends to put
the Houthis back on the list of foreign terrorist organizations
after President Biden remove the group back in 2021. Over
concerns that designation would cripple the enemy the Yemeni
economy the damage to a famine
Adam Curry: the enemy Oh send them into so this this navy seal
thing that that got all the play I think what's Trump going to
do?
John C Dvorak: Well, first of all, I want to point something
out in that report if
Adam Curry: his navy seals are are all gone, he can't use them
to kill his opponents.
John C Dvorak: Well, there's plenty of seal groups, but the
kid right can't kill the First Lady. So Ha First Lady. Yes,
yeah, they killed the first lady right there in the White House.
He specifically said 30 Houthi attacks on on the shipping. I
thought it was 150.
Adam Curry: Well, this is the Gulf of Aden. All of a sudden
this is no longer the red so yeah, but
John C Dvorak: it's still Houthi attacks on commercial shipping,
I thought was 150 attacks 150 missiles 150 something or other?
And he specifically said 30, not 3133 2930. When did that number
change?
Adam Curry: I don't know. But it's it's a number change. Let
me guess. Did everybody mentioned 30?
John C Dvorak: I don't know if they do. Let's find out by
listening to the NBC report
Unknown: tonight the US striking back against Houthi rebels in
Yemen again, destroying an anti ship ballistic missile launcher
that the US says was preparing to attack ships in the Red Sea.
We anticipated the Houthis would continue to try to hold this
critical artery at risk. And we continue to reserve the right to
take further action.
It comes after the Houthis hit a commercial ship with a missile
today. According to the US military, the Biden
administration now read designating the group as a
foreign terrorist organization. According to three US officials.
The goal to cut off Houthi financing. Secretary of State
Antony Blinken told CNBC Andrew Ross Sorkin the threat is
impacting commercial traffic 15%
of commercial traffic is going through that strait every single
day 30% of the world's containerships we're seeing
international repercussions for these attacks.
US officials say Iran continues to supply Houthi rebels with
weapons and intelligence releasing photos of these
Iranian missile parts headed to the rebels in Yemen. The weapons
intercepted when the US Navy spotted a suspicious boat in the
Gulf of Aden and sent in a team of US Navy SEALs. They
confiscated the missile parts but not before two US Navy SEALs
ended up in the rough waters. They are both still missing
tonight. The tension with Iran also playing out on land. US
officials say Iran launched multiple ballistic missiles into
northern Iraq overnight, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard
claiming they targeted a spy base for Israel's intelligence
agency Mossad in the region. US officials not confirming that
saying US military and diplomatic facilities were not
impacted and that civilians including children were killed
in the missile attack. Sparking protests in the streets in
Erbil. The White House condemning the attacks as
reckless and imprecise
Adam Curry: very different reports. Yeah, I noticed
different very did
John C Dvorak: they have the same elements of the seals and
then they have the bass there were no 30 They didn't have the
number 30 They didn't have a 30 and they didn't have and they
added this new thing about the attack in Iraq.
Adam Curry: Yeah, throw the kids you know, they're gonna lose
viewers with this people are zoning out the Oh, first of all,
you know, Windows Security defender. Okay,
John C Dvorak: so you have a problem? Yeah, I
Adam Curry: guess. Everything reboots I think this is bad for
ratings. People don't want know where the where the Gulf of Aden
is. They don't know where they'll go anything they don't
feel anything we know where it is because that's where the
that's where the portal is.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, there's a stargate there are you know what
comes in and out of that thing?
Adam Curry: Tell me fish.
John C Dvorak: Exactly. Alright, so,
Adam Curry: next CBS CBS CBS CB alright. CBS Come on. termI on
demand. The assault of guys continued today. I liked the
other they're connecting it to Gaza right away good.
Unknown: But Israel's fight against Hamas has triggered a
dramatic escalation in attacks across the region, the region
off the coast of Yemen. New Video shows Iranian backed
Houthi ease in a song and dance with new recruits aboard the
Galaxy leader cargo ship seized back in November now turned into
part trophy, part floating amusement park off the coast of
Yemen and a propaganda tool used to make a mockery of the
American led threats. But following last week's US UK
bombardment, those threats turn to action again. The US military
says fighter jets struck for anti ship ballistic missiles
preparing to launch from Houthi territory in Yemen. Barely 24
hours after an attack on a US operated cargo ship. A Greek own
ship was struck today by a Houthi missile in the Red Sea.
Near the coast of Somalia. The US military released these new
images Iranian supplied warheads and missile parts confiscated
from this ship headed to Houthi militants in Yemen. In an
operation in which two Navy SEALs were lost at sea. We'll
have to continue the World Economic Forum in Davos,
Switzerland White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan
said this goes beyond a regional problem. Global
Challenge we're talking about a vital armor artery of global
commerce. A critical maritime choke point that's being held
hostage.
Despite us lead attempts, the Houthi say they'll keep hitting
that choke point as long as Israel keeps hitting Gaza and
there's no sign tonight of either those battles coming to
an end anytime soon. Okay, so
Adam Curry: we have three distinct different reports and I
John C Dvorak: think this three by three is having an effect
Yes, the
Adam Curry: damn man does those new agenda guys are onto us. Mix
it up, people put the amusement park in there, which was a nice
touch. Now I think this this something was a surprise. It was
the news media has no idea there's not that don't have the
only sources say they have in there as well. But putting it
back on the terrorist list, they don't know what to do. There is
no central information source that is that is giving them
details this this was not planned something I'm having to
agree with something went awry. And especially if we lose some
seals, you know, this is not good. That's the only human
interest we have is the seal part of the story. So what do
Canadians
John C Dvorak: have to say about this a CBC.
Unknown: Even as the US and UK launched those first strikes
against Houthi militants last week, the US suggested more
would likely follow. Now they have today more Houthi military
targets. In this case, anti ship missiles have been hit by
American forces unto itself underlining that Houthi forces
while degraded by the earlier attacks are still able to carry
out strikes themselves. Indeed, word a Maltese flagged cargo
ship was hit today. And yesterday for the first time a
US owned cargo ship. Damage was minor in both cases, and there
were no injuries
in the face of naked aggression. We are not turning inward. US
national security adviser Jake Sullivan today in Davos,
Switzerland,
we did not say when we launched our tax they're going to end
once and for all, the Houthis will be fully deterred. We
continue to reserve the right to take further action. The
US said today it's not looking for war. And while the Houthi is
linked their attacks to supporting Palestinians in the
Israeli war against Hamas in Gaza. The US said again, its
response to the Houthi attacks is based solely on the threat to
the global economy. countries
and companies that have nothing to do with Middle East
whatsoever are being affected more than 50 nations in nearly
30 attacks. And so it's a crisis that the whole world needs to
respond to.
But it's ratcheted tensions in the region broadly. Today
reports the US is set to officially label Houthi rebels
as specially designated global terrorists, which means the US
will be able to block their assets among other punishments.
Last week, the US seized Iranian made missile components bound
for Yemen from an unflagged ship in the Arabian Sea. Iran backs
both the Houthis and Hamas
Adam Curry: and they got Bitcoin their nose good. Decent analysis
from the troll room. Navy SEALs lost at sea no ir beacons on
helmets no drones in sky the seals were killed in action and
reported as missing to avoid having to escalate that's a good
point.
John C Dvorak: That would make sense that
Adam Curry: would that would make sense that so they're lying
to us. Oh, surprise.
John C Dvorak: Wait, what lies in the media
Adam Curry: and with that, I'd like to thank you for your
courage in the morning to you the man who put the sea in
Colonel DeVore ag ladies and gentlemen say hello to my friend
John Cena
John C Dvorak: Mr and creative Marcia, seabirds and Rafi near
subs the word of their games and nights out there in

Connecticut some Kentucky users we were something there was
something in the guy who gave the speech before was the one of
the editors at info world became a venture capitalist Stuart

year before to give the same talk. And he had been granted a
Kentucky Colonel ship. The guy just mentioned it in passing now
is that actual
Adam Curry: military rank is that it's
John C Dvorak: a Kentucky thing. Yeah, I guess his military is
Colonel. And so I said, Wait a minute. If he got this, I'm
getting one. Get me a Kentucky cry. So I got one signed by the
governor. The whole thing I got it's a framed on the wall.
Adam Curry: You should put it on your QR Zed profile.

Adam Curry: on the computer. Yeah. It's like a big chat
program on the computer yet
John C Dvorak: press. Gold. That's got to be exciting. It's
riveting. It's
Adam Curry: it's riveting in the region is great. I can't I was
talking to Switzerland the other day on 12 watts. That's pretty
impressive. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: yeah. And you can do it window. All hell breaks
loose. You can still do it. That's right. That's right. A
friend of mine. Chris red. kowski just wrote a book called
How the C W life or something like,
Adam Curry: wow, The CW life is it this
John C Dvorak: is called CW life. And it's all it is is
about code and
Adam Curry: euthanasia book. What is this?
John C Dvorak: Just you didn't autograph it? He sent me a copy.
But I don't think he autographed it. I want to send it to you.
Because I figure you'd be Yeah.
Adam Curry: See, what What about it was did you read it and you
didn't read it?
John C Dvorak: It's hard to read. You know, it's talking
about Morse code and how great it is. And yeah, it is and CW is
terrific.
Adam Curry: That's the same as Morse code. carrier wave CW
that's Morse code. Yeah. I at a certain point, I could do 12
words a minute I was up there. You
John C Dvorak: are all in on CW for a long time. I thought Yeah,
I was I was and then and you're getting all jacked up about
having some of you know, 100 foot long antenna. Long Wave
stuffing. It's not a you know, some CW the wire
Adam Curry: antenna. I like wire antennas the best actually I do.
Like why aren't these guys with these big beams and rotators
after
John C Dvorak: this little chit chat we've just had check the
check the chat room now to see how many people left. Okay,
let's see. I'm guessing is down to 1600 after talking about ham
radio station. 76.
Adam Curry: Baby.
John C Dvorak: You're right. Yeah. 200 people you want to
talk a little more about we'll get rid of all of that killed
over
Adam Curry: dead like ah, can't listen to the CW ta Hey, man.
I'm just trying to spice it up a little bit. Spice it up. We got
a lot of hams. We got a lot of hams. We do there the core
group. Troll room.io is where you can listen live to the show
no agenda stream.com It's 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
All kinds of great podcasts, lots of live podcast just like
this one. We do it on Thursdays and Sundays and people could
check in it's like having a live studio audience of trolls. But
an MMA there's some that are trolling so hard today. They
even been been they figured out how to do incident messaging all
those bleeps and bloops on my computer, I'd shut off my my
sound cards crazy. Hey, buddy trying to try to get through to
me. But the trolls, they're good. They're good. If you can
also listen, live on a modern podcast app, you want to have
one of these you want to import all of your existing
subscriptions. If you have Apple or certainly Google podcast,
which is going away, you know that trying to suck it into, oh,
YouTube Music that'll be great for podcasts, you good luck with
that. I get a modern podcast and modern podcast apps.com. There's
about 16 of them now. And this is stuff that will not be the
platform. That's why you want it you want to support the the
developers of this independent infrastructure and the
podcasters that use it. You can do that with value for value. We
do that here. For 16 years, we've been giving you the show.
The show is out there. There's no paywalls no hoops, anything
like that. You can download it just download the file if you
want people used to put them on CDs back when we still had CD
players. That's how long the show has been around. Distribute
them give people CDs, hey, listen to this. You like it? Now
just don't play it. The donation segment. You know the boobs will
probably the women won't want to listen to it in your life
apparently. But the whole idea is is you determine what it's
worth to you. Obviously, if you're listening and you're
still listening at this point, it's worth something and just
turn that into a number send it back or you can deliver your
time and your talent which is like The troll room did right
there gave me a boots on the ground, we got people doing all
kinds of stuff for us helping, which often is directly
equatable to treasure, time, talent or treasure, especially
if you're maintaining servers for us or anything like that.
It's highly appreciated. Anything you do in return is
appreciated just hitting someone in the mouth. All of that really
does help and keeps the show rolling. And of course,
Treasurer is important. Everybody can afford a couple of
bucks, you can go to no agenda donations.com. For those who
left the support during the PayPal pocalypse, we now have a
new payment method we've added which is stripe. I have no idea
what that is. What is stripe to
John C Dvorak: stripe is like a competitor with square. So they
compete they compete a bit with Pay Pal but not exactly the
same. But they do have it is alternative is already paid off.
Because it turns out that in New Zealand, for example, we have a
New Zealand, oh, they can't use a power problem. They can't use
Pay Pal and they bitch about it. And I said and I sent one of the
women who was complaining. I said we'll check this out. We
just have implemented Jay did it. And that Jay is great.
Adam Curry: She's fantastic. She's doing all kinds of stuff.
And I guess no agenda donations.com That's just our
new that we're getting rid of dvorak.org/na, which we had for
all which children around the
John C Dvorak: world. Just put it put a forwarding thing.
Eventually,
Adam Curry: eventually, where is it? Where's the forward when you
find the password? Don't push and a so
John C Dvorak: let me finish the story, which is that she tried
it. And it worked fine. Oh, good. And she tried it. It
worked fine. She was really grateful. So this is so for
people that are overseas and they can't use PayPal under any
circumstances. They don't have checks because God knows you're
going to have a check. No, because it's discouraged by the
banks and he plays but the United States as they can't
really donate but now they can donate and they can go to no
agenda donations plural.com And then you can click on the stripe
thing and you can use stripe if you want to. And it's also
people that really don't like PayPal and even though this we
like it yeah, that people can always send us people don't like
it it's in this cache and there's also Yeah, you send send
a check that's the absolute best way of doing
Adam Curry: everybody in America everybody's bank you can
automatically send a check it'll just be you just write it off
goes to the mail shows up that's fine too. And that's even better
because there's no fees we have check cashing fees with our bank
yes
John C Dvorak: there is at some point when you have a there's a
there's a limited checks once you get to like 100 checks. All
checks after that are charged 15 cents off the top but
Adam Curry: not a percentage. No no no percentage because PayPal
man they take these days.
John C Dvorak: A pal takes a lot of money. Well they all do.
Because it's a fee you know you gotta you gotta cough up to this
system.
Adam Curry: Yeah
John C Dvorak: Yep, so it's not just Pay Pal is everybody their
Visa, MasterCard, you name it. Bastards. Faster
Adam Curry: masters. Now you can also do things like make artwork
for the show. And our artists have been making art for many
years. We have a large selection that seems seems to be coming
back a little bit now that the no agenda art generator.com is
back online and fast. Thank you, Sir Paul couture, another great
example of of time and talent that he gave us. And we want to
thank capitalist agenda who bought us the artwork for
episode 1625 We titled that one call me Bill. And this was Lloyd
Austin on a milk carton.
John C Dvorak: Gray greatest piece of work. Yeah,
Adam Curry: I'd actually use that as the bat signal. And so
it's rare that we use the same piece of art for the bat signal
and for the for the episode show art but there it is. It was that
good. It was really we love that to capitalist agenda. Thank you
so much. Let us take a look and see some of the other things
that people had posted art wise we had. What did we have here?
John C Dvorak: Well, there wasn't a lot. Well,
Adam Curry: there was Simon hating me. That was funny.
John C Dvorak: Yeah, that was cute. There's a lot of cute
stuff that was probably usable if we couldn't come up with
anything better. Yeah.
Adam Curry: Some laundry stuff people like the laundry stuff.
John C Dvorak: And there's also Yeah, it was a lot of that
whereas Aaron nourish kind of cute company strict blogger had
a few good AI pieces that were nice.
Adam Curry: Yeah, there was this missile confusion that people
were doing missile but was the I don't remember when this
John C Dvorak: Yeah, I don't you'll remember that. cuz I mean
I mean I saw that piece but I can't remember what the joke
what it was referring to we have a dog food eating from the dog
food bowl which I guess got a lot of people's attention.
Scattered disgusted scare
Adam Curry: Manga The wash coin minor Pro that was funny fire
the Zoomer the thermostat. Oh, that wasn't a really good
thermostat. I didn't look like a thermostat that looked like an
old cassette recorder on the wall. I don't know what it
looked like. It looked kind of weird. So I think really it was
this was the one for the win that it was a great piece by
human capitalist agenda. And he this is not AI he does this
stuff. This is what he does, right? Okay,
John C Dvorak: this should take a million prompts to get this
piece on AI. He's got the 33 ounces on there at the bottom of
cute now as goodwill. No capitalist agenda is a pro. He's
really good.
Adam Curry: It was beautiful work really, really well done.
We appreciate it. And of course, we appreciate the work that all
of the artists who thank you so much is just as we appreciate
people who will support us with with $3 $5. It doesn't matter if

John C Dvorak: Koreans, a lot of Koreans want me everybody.
Here's
Adam Curry: what happened to the white Christians. I thought they
were in charge of everything.
John C Dvorak: Well, they are and I think they decided to go
this route. Okay. The best example of the best, late night
talk show food first of all they took they took they had to give
John Oliver award because he's got a writing staff of about 50
people and they all needed money. So John Oliver got pushed
into a category called best variety show.
Adam Curry: What is the last variety? Is there singing and
dancing? That's
John C Dvorak: No, I mean, yeah, once the way is a gag dancer
Come on, but that's ridiculous. So they gave him an award for
that. But so they had the best talk shows they left Gutfeld out
of this, of course now and they had have, they had Kimmel, they
had a late night with Stephen Colbert, and they had Jimmy
Fallon and then they had Noah on the Comedy Central show. That
show is over as canceled and has been cancelled is over. He's not
even work as far as I know. It is not even there anymore. But
chocolate
Adam Curry: so he gets an award. Exactly.
John C Dvorak: And the staffs and the the other guys are
putting you know, they're a bunch of liberals and you're
politely clapping you know, they've got bands and stabs they
got a lot of people to feed and they're politely all it's great
that no one and it's funny to watch.
Adam Curry: Oh, man, oh, man. Oh, man, but it
John C Dvorak: was I don't know what the ratings were but it was
against Monday Night Football. I mean, the chocolates get
Adam Curry: all the awards and we get Trump. I mean, this is
not fair.
John C Dvorak: There you have it. There you have it. No
chocolates, chocolates,
Adam Curry: chocolate. The chocolate Emmys degrading. Why
do I say that man? Anyway, whatever. I only have one eye so
you want to hear mine? Yeah, sure. It's a doozy though. Be
careful. Yours may not stack up to it. Here we go.
Unknown: Ah, wow. Wow,
Adam Curry: that's a good it's a good it's not just wow, it's Ah,
Unknown: wow. Wow. But
John C Dvorak: I like it. I've always liked to wireless I
usually contribute to wireless. Well, let's go with so I got
three. Start with lies.
Adam Curry: I don't want to hear any more of these lies. That's
the that's from the archive. That's the classic. It's a
classic classic. Yeah,
John C Dvorak: I got a mega mega. Yeah, okay. Okay, well,
Mega Man again. And then the last one is podcast structure.
Unknown: This podcast has no structure.
Adam Curry: I think we have a winner. There you go. In a
nutshell. Ladies and gentlemen, we have an end of show. So now
it's time for Google JC Penney to read a note here which we got
from Wait, where's where it was? It was from one of our
producers. When did I erase that? What did I do with that?
He said oh goodness. But I I have a note that I wanted to
read but now I can't find it. So I'll look for it. Okay, what's
your good news for today?
Unknown: Okay, today's
John C Dvorak: good news comes from Iowa. Iowa and it snowed in
in Iowa and is doctors going around saving the day with his
one of those four wheelers those little bicycle thing he said
four weeks
Adam Curry: ago, but it was like Doc Holloway on a four wheeler
is that everything he could to make sure last week's winter
storm couldn't stop him from delivering a baby.
Unknown: Yeah, he took this ATV to Shenandoah Medical Center to
help baby Berkeley gardener come into the world. Okay, TV news,
watch him and Sean McCann and caught up with mom, dad and
doctor about that snowy situation last
Friday in Shenandoah, Iowa. Time must have felt frozen, as
subzero temps kept people indoors. The gardeners were on
their way to the hospital mom crystal gardener was due and Dr.
Chase brown knew his four wheeler was the only way he
could make it there. He cleared snowdrifts by hitting them at 20
miles per hour, snow and everywhere I went flying in all
directions but just keep going through to the next one. And it
wasn't just Dr. Brown. The whole medical team braved the snow and
cold to make sure this baby would be delivered.
We knew he was gonna get there. They all would get there for it.
The garters were blessed with
a baby girl named Berkeley at Tuesday's checkup. Brown says
she's healthy as can be.
She's a very good baby. We couldn't have asked for more
perfection so
her siblings can't put her down.
Does Leah share at all that she doesn't share much and tries
not?
Despite Berkeley being born in a winter storm, she
doesn't like to be out of her blanket out of her swaddle
nothing. And she hates the cold for
Brown. There was never a question he'd make it. In fact,
he's gone to three deliveries now by four wheeler again, no
matter what's coming, for there to take care of people. And
while time might move slowly in this small town, there's no snow
day for a baby ready to meet the world. This is a dream come true
for me to be here in a small town and provide the care we can
in experiences like this is just how I imagine that'd be a doctor
one day Sean McKinnon, K TV NEWSWATCH SEVEN. Ah,
John C Dvorak: wow. No doctors like that. Except a little small
towns around here is
Adam Curry: beautiful. It was so nice. I feel good. I found the
note. SOC, sent a note through fountain to podcasting 2.0 Good

Unknown: JC had the vibes for you and me and we all feel
better. Now he's done his bit, to the back
Adam Curry: to reality. That's turning to shit. Good news,

Israel a pariah stays with occupation and apartheid. When
xenophobia, ruthlessness and intimidation, Israel is losing
on the grounds and in the courts of public opinion building
an empire based on fears and intimidation,
desperate acts of aggression to propose the wider conflict,
charismatic,
vicious immigrants for the destruction of the country,

build the butcher. BUTCHER Biden is reporting for Tuesday. What's
your approach, genocide by his side extinguishes life the
continuation of Israeli terrorists the son of a butcher,
a ruthless fighter. So take notes butcher fighting, it's
frankly deplorable and
wholly depressing.
Just keep our constants out of your mouth.
It's important to remember who this man is. He's a xenophobic
killer who has aligned himself with fellow scared
bigots. For Joe Biden is reporting he
is not a good man betrays a no this man is evil and never tried
to tell us otherwise is a noses
genocide that Germany with your words and deeds supporting
Israel, the people of Europe stand with Palestine and with
South Africa. Christian Lord guide my hand. It's important to
remember who this man is for Joe Biden is reporting for duty.
He's a xenophobic killer who has aligned himself with
fellow scared and bigots. Israel

opinion, the people of North Stand with Palestine and with
South Africa.
