1
00:00:00,260 --> 00:00:01,600
Yo, you have three, holy crap.

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:03,660
Adam Curry, John C.

3
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:04,060
DeVora.

4
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:05,860
It's Thursday, May 1st, 2025.

5
00:00:06,180 --> 00:00:07,820
This is your award-winning Kimmel Nation Media

6
00:00:07,820 --> 00:00:10,400
Assassination Episode 1760.

7
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,440
This is no agenda.

8
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,720
Celebrating 6,397 days and broadcasting live from

9
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,340
the heart of the Texas Hill Country here

10
00:00:20,340 --> 00:00:21,280
in FEMA Region No.

11
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:21,720
6.

12
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,080
In the morning, everybody.

13
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:23,980
I'm Adam Curry.

14
00:00:24,220 --> 00:00:26,580
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I'm sick

15
00:00:26,580 --> 00:00:29,400
and tired of hearing, I hope this message

16
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:30,540
finds you well.

17
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:31,759
I'm John C.

18
00:00:31,940 --> 00:00:32,360
DeVorak.

19
00:00:32,740 --> 00:00:34,460
It's crackpot and buzzkill.

20
00:00:34,660 --> 00:00:35,660
In the morning.

21
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,440
Yeah, I'm convinced that that's just chat GPT.

22
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,540
If you get one of those and someone

23
00:00:40,540 --> 00:00:42,680
said, write a nice letter to my friend.

24
00:00:43,580 --> 00:00:46,140
Yes, I hope this message finds you well.

25
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:47,760
And then there's the alternate, which is, I

26
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,620
hope this email finds you well.

27
00:00:49,780 --> 00:00:51,520
What does this even mean?

28
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,320
Has anyone ever said this in real life?

29
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,280
I hope this message finds you well.

30
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,000
What is it looking for me?

31
00:01:00,180 --> 00:01:01,020
Did it found me?

32
00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:02,040
And it found me well?

33
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:04,860
No, seriously, what does it mean?

34
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:06,380
What does this stupid phrase mean?

35
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:07,940
And why is it at the beginning?

36
00:01:08,060 --> 00:01:08,560
And you're right.

37
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,180
It's obviously from chat GPT, because it's followed

38
00:01:13,180 --> 00:01:17,040
by a lengthy sales pitch that goes on

39
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,640
and on and on and never gets to

40
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:19,120
the point.

41
00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:20,600
What were they trying to sell you with

42
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,180
this time, with that opening?

43
00:01:22,180 --> 00:01:24,520
Usually some service or maybe we can get

44
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,140
more podcast listeners.

45
00:01:27,620 --> 00:01:30,260
LinkedIn is filled with, I hope this message

46
00:01:30,260 --> 00:01:31,160
finds you well.

47
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,700
LinkedIn has become a spam network.

48
00:01:34,020 --> 00:01:35,580
Nobody likes LinkedIn anymore.

49
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:37,060
They're all, you know, like, I've got to

50
00:01:37,060 --> 00:01:38,020
curate my feed.

51
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:39,620
I've got to close everything down.

52
00:01:39,700 --> 00:01:41,380
I can't accept any more connections.

53
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,420
It's a mess.

54
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,220
They really hoard that.

55
00:01:44,300 --> 00:01:46,380
Once Microsoft bought it, they hoard that thing

56
00:01:46,380 --> 00:01:46,680
out.

57
00:01:47,580 --> 00:01:48,200
They made it bad.

58
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:49,700
They really made, I think they probably let

59
00:01:49,700 --> 00:01:51,580
chat GPT loose on us.

60
00:01:51,580 --> 00:01:54,320
Everybody could grab all the emails and profiles

61
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,820
and just spam away.

62
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,260
That's all that AI is good for.

63
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,760
Spam, deep fakes, humor.

64
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:02,400
Humor.

65
00:02:02,620 --> 00:02:02,940
Humor.

66
00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:03,320
Yes.

67
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,060
And some Python coding.

68
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,340
Okay, I'll give you that.

69
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,780
Use some PHP scripts.

70
00:02:09,940 --> 00:02:10,440
All right.

71
00:02:11,260 --> 00:02:11,760
Dynamite.

72
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,180
Dynamite.

73
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,320
Before we even get started, John, we have

74
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,040
breaking news.

75
00:02:18,220 --> 00:02:19,940
It came in this morning over the transformation.

76
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:20,900
Breaking, breaking, breaking.

77
00:02:21,580 --> 00:02:23,140
We begin with breaking news.

78
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:25,920
Sources are confirming to Fox News that National

79
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:28,600
Security Advisor Mike Walsh is out.

80
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,980
As well as his deputy, Alex Wong.

81
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,180
Additional names are likely to come, we're told.

82
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,260
And we expect to hear from the president

83
00:02:36,260 --> 00:02:37,380
on this soon.

84
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:38,820
I'm Harris Faulkner.

85
00:02:38,940 --> 00:02:40,300
You are in the Faulkner Focus.

86
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,820
I'm in the Faulkner Focus.

87
00:02:41,980 --> 00:02:42,440
Oh, no.

88
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,060
State Department Spokesperson Tammy Bruce is also with

89
00:02:46,060 --> 00:02:46,320
me.

90
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,460
I love this.

91
00:02:47,460 --> 00:02:50,180
We have not had Tammy Bruce show up

92
00:02:50,180 --> 00:02:51,460
in any real capacity.

93
00:02:51,660 --> 00:02:52,420
This is exciting.

94
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,180
So she's been on a lot.

95
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:55,240
You just haven't seen her.

96
00:02:55,420 --> 00:02:56,760
Well, no, but she hasn't been on the

97
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,540
show because now it's breaking news.

98
00:02:58,720 --> 00:02:59,820
Breaking, breaking.

99
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,660
And Tammy Bruce is going to tell us

100
00:03:01,660 --> 00:03:02,660
exactly what happened.

101
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:05,240
Or, or is she going to waffle a

102
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,980
bit and be a propagandist, which is exactly

103
00:03:07,980 --> 00:03:10,120
the opposite of what she was when she

104
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,300
wasn't working for government.

105
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,280
I wonder which Tammy will get.

106
00:03:13,420 --> 00:03:15,840
First, though, let's get the news of what's

107
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,180
coming together right now.

108
00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:19,400
Tammy Bruce with the State Department is with

109
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,060
us right now.

110
00:03:20,140 --> 00:03:22,200
So first of all, just kind of top

111
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,360
line this for us.

112
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,160
I mean, Jennifer has given us the news.

113
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:25,700
Top line.

114
00:03:25,820 --> 00:03:28,360
Now, if someone says to you, John, we're

115
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,680
going to John at the State Department.

116
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:30,540
Top line this.

117
00:03:30,700 --> 00:03:32,720
What would we be expecting to hear from

118
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:32,920
you?

119
00:03:34,380 --> 00:03:39,400
Probably the most succinct explanation that explains everything

120
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,040
right off the bat.

121
00:03:41,180 --> 00:03:42,120
The top line.

122
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,020
And this is why we have no career.

123
00:03:45,020 --> 00:03:46,820
We have no career in broadcast.

124
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,240
The opening, the opening, the headline, the lead,

125
00:03:51,340 --> 00:03:54,260
the headline from the State Department perspective.

126
00:03:54,540 --> 00:03:54,760
Tammy.

127
00:03:55,340 --> 00:03:57,720
Well, here's what I can tell you when

128
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,140
it comes to right off the bat.

129
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,000
Here's what I can tell you right off

130
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,460
the bat.

131
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,300
Here's what I can tell you, which is

132
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:03,900
nothing.

133
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,700
Well, here's what I can tell you when

134
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:08,680
it comes to national security for the country,

135
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,220
the nature of the president.

136
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:11,540
A little laughter in there.

137
00:04:11,580 --> 00:04:12,840
I hadn't noticed that when I was clipping

138
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:13,040
it.

139
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,740
When it comes to national security for the

140
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:15,019
country.

141
00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:17,459
Well, here's what I can tell you when

142
00:04:17,459 --> 00:04:19,480
it comes to national security for the country.

143
00:04:20,540 --> 00:04:22,320
What does it with a life tell, Tammy

144
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:22,680
Bruce?

145
00:04:22,840 --> 00:04:25,660
Nature of the president who's involved in making

146
00:04:25,660 --> 00:04:30,520
determinations about this nation's trajectory, of course, economically,

147
00:04:30,700 --> 00:04:33,000
when it comes to security and what we've

148
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,680
seen and what we know from President Trump

149
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,800
is he's been very clear that his commitment

150
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,780
is to diplomacy around the world.

151
00:04:39,780 --> 00:04:43,020
He is clearly an active and engaged president.

152
00:04:43,100 --> 00:04:46,040
That I think is a man who comes

153
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,320
from business where this is so disappointing from

154
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,580
Tammy Bruce and his understanding of what needs

155
00:04:52,580 --> 00:04:55,860
to occur is the guiding hand of everything

156
00:04:55,860 --> 00:04:57,320
that happens in this government.

157
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,780
And of course, he is hands on literally

158
00:04:59,780 --> 00:05:02,500
when it comes to making things literally when

159
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:03,600
it comes to the implementation.

160
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:05,360
He has hands on walls.

161
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:06,200
What was he doing?

162
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:06,780
I don't know.

163
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:07,860
He's touching it, etc.

164
00:05:08,540 --> 00:05:11,820
At every department, every day, whether it's the

165
00:05:11,820 --> 00:05:14,460
State Department or the Department of Defense, or

166
00:05:14,460 --> 00:05:15,800
of course, when it comes to who he

167
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,260
chooses to advise him, she gives us nothing.

168
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:20,600
What kind of top line is that, Tammy

169
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:20,960
Bruce?

170
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:22,700
The disappointment of the century.

171
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:23,940
We loved you.

172
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,320
We loved you on Fox.

173
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,760
You were there to tell us to tell

174
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,540
it to us straight.

175
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:28,560
We loved you.

176
00:05:28,660 --> 00:05:29,900
No, no.

177
00:05:30,020 --> 00:05:32,340
OK, so let's do some propaganda.

178
00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:34,540
That mission was done well.

179
00:05:34,540 --> 00:05:36,580
So now they're talking about the mission of

180
00:05:36,580 --> 00:05:39,320
which the top secret details were leaked on

181
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,320
the signal and signal.

182
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:41,560
Oh, the Houthi bombing.

183
00:05:41,980 --> 00:05:43,980
So we're going to move from let's not

184
00:05:43,980 --> 00:05:45,780
talk about what happened to that was a

185
00:05:45,780 --> 00:05:46,560
great mission.

186
00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:47,740
Mission accomplished.

187
00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:49,760
That mission was done well.

188
00:05:49,940 --> 00:05:51,020
It was completed well.

189
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,700
And I think it's worth stating that all

190
00:05:53,700 --> 00:05:55,820
of this is a leadership move now that's

191
00:05:55,820 --> 00:05:56,180
happening.

192
00:05:56,180 --> 00:05:59,560
But the actual mission that President Trump wanted

193
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,120
worked out very well.

194
00:06:01,180 --> 00:06:02,660
Your last quick thought will move forward.

195
00:06:03,300 --> 00:06:05,820
Last quick thought you've given us nothing, nothing,

196
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:06,740
nothing.

197
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,200
Yeah, I think that's it.

198
00:06:08,280 --> 00:06:09,820
When we're looking at the choices that are

199
00:06:09,820 --> 00:06:11,220
made, when it comes to whether it's the

200
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:14,040
Houthis, the nature of diplomacy with Iran, which,

201
00:06:14,220 --> 00:06:16,620
of course, always continues, bringing people to the

202
00:06:16,620 --> 00:06:19,820
table regarding Ukraine and Russia, the situation in

203
00:06:19,820 --> 00:06:23,400
Gaza, the critical minerals deal, which is actually

204
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,160
a much broader deal with Ukraine, with money

205
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,520
and resources that will be reinvested into Ukraine.

206
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,660
And it's re-building after this horrible carnage

207
00:06:33,660 --> 00:06:35,660
that has unfolded over three years.

208
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,220
So you've got major successes economically and otherwise

209
00:06:39,220 --> 00:06:40,600
as inflation goes down.

210
00:06:40,820 --> 00:06:43,700
It is a historic first 100 days.

211
00:06:44,020 --> 00:06:48,800
It has been aggressive, exciting, and America wants

212
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,520
to change by electing President Trump.

213
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:53,120
And we're seeing the benefits of his vision

214
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,800
on every single framework.

215
00:06:55,060 --> 00:06:56,200
And it's been a success.

216
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:57,580
It will continue to be a success.

217
00:06:57,580 --> 00:07:01,320
Complete and utter bullcrap.

218
00:07:01,820 --> 00:07:02,220
Propaganda.

219
00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:02,780
That was terrible.

220
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,900
She did, that was a bad performance.

221
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,060
It was, it was disappointing.

222
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:10,960
Disappointing, Tammy Bruce.

223
00:07:11,660 --> 00:07:12,740
I have a feeling that was the Laura

224
00:07:12,740 --> 00:07:13,520
Logan spot.

225
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,080
I think she was supposed to get that

226
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:15,380
spot.

227
00:07:16,420 --> 00:07:17,420
I don't know why she didn't.

228
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,300
Laura Logan would have done a better job

229
00:07:19,300 --> 00:07:19,800
than that.

230
00:07:19,940 --> 00:07:21,860
Well, that's the problem, because this is clearly,

231
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,340
oh, let's just do some propaganda.

232
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,080
Because it's 100 days.

233
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,560
Now, just before we move on, I received,

234
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:29,080
we have.

235
00:07:29,460 --> 00:07:31,440
Well, before we start, I have some thoughts

236
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:32,600
about this Walz thing.

237
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,380
Well, can I, can I just give you

238
00:07:34,380 --> 00:07:35,700
a boots on the ground real quick?

239
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,340
Because we have the best producers and I've

240
00:07:39,340 --> 00:07:42,080
got many producer boots on the ground.

241
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,200
Regarding Signalgate, then yes, I want to hear

242
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,180
your thoughts about Walz.

243
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:48,500
As a military contractor, writes our boots on

244
00:07:48,500 --> 00:07:50,780
the ground producer, with the Army and as

245
00:07:50,780 --> 00:07:54,000
a Navy reservist, we are required to use

246
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,260
Signal in CONUS and OCONUS, which I think

247
00:07:58,260 --> 00:07:59,580
is Continental United States.

248
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:01,220
And what's OCONUS?

249
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,720
Oh, Continental United States.

250
00:08:03,260 --> 00:08:05,720
So the narrative that it's a commercial app,

251
00:08:05,860 --> 00:08:08,060
which you guys debunked, is false.

252
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,460
DoD uses it as the app of choice

253
00:08:11,460 --> 00:08:14,220
for OPSEC, operational security.

254
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,680
I embed with the 160th, FOSCOM, which is

255
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,060
an unknown acronym to me.

256
00:08:21,900 --> 00:08:24,540
All chats between us contractors and our Army

257
00:08:24,540 --> 00:08:26,340
counterparts are on Signal.

258
00:08:26,860 --> 00:08:29,640
WhatsApp is only used by rear detachment Air

259
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:30,380
Force units.

260
00:08:30,820 --> 00:08:32,280
Get in the back, you WhatsApp people.

261
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,840
By the way, Michael Strickars is a douchebag.

262
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,500
Just throw that in.

263
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,760
He says he turned me on to you

264
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,440
in 2019.

265
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:43,300
He doesn't donate.

266
00:08:43,380 --> 00:08:44,080
So he's a douchebag.

267
00:08:44,580 --> 00:08:47,740
So whenever they say commercial app, it is

268
00:08:47,740 --> 00:08:50,760
a requirement within the Department of Defense.

269
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,560
This is all, on its face, bullcrap.

270
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,880
But clearly someone had to go.

271
00:08:57,580 --> 00:08:59,480
And I guess today we now know it

272
00:08:59,480 --> 00:08:59,760
is.

273
00:08:59,940 --> 00:09:00,740
Walt, your thoughts?

274
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,600
Well, Walt and Wong.

275
00:09:03,580 --> 00:09:05,080
Well, Wong was the problem.

276
00:09:05,700 --> 00:09:06,140
That's what everyone thought.

277
00:09:06,140 --> 00:09:07,500
Well, we think he was the problem.

278
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:10,220
I'm wondering whether because Walt was set up

279
00:09:10,220 --> 00:09:13,840
with his Signal system by the CIA directly,

280
00:09:13,980 --> 00:09:14,820
according to him.

281
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,280
Yes, and Wong was...

282
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,700
I think they set him up.

283
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,140
I think this could have been a setup

284
00:09:19,140 --> 00:09:20,120
to get rid of him because...

285
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,240
He's annoying.

286
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,400
He was not a guy that anyone liked.

287
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:24,960
They didn't...

288
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,020
In fact, people that were Trumpers didn't like

289
00:09:27,020 --> 00:09:27,520
him either.

290
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,940
But what's convenient here is that he could

291
00:09:31,940 --> 00:09:36,020
also have been a bargaining chip with trade

292
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:37,500
talks with the Chinese.

293
00:09:38,460 --> 00:09:40,060
To get some Ting Wong back?

294
00:09:41,660 --> 00:09:43,160
Because of some Ting Wong.

295
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:43,940
Some Ting Wong?

296
00:09:43,940 --> 00:09:47,880
So, Wong was a Chinese national who was

297
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:48,660
anti-China.

298
00:09:48,980 --> 00:09:51,640
And Walt was one of the biggest China

299
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:52,200
hawks.

300
00:09:53,420 --> 00:09:55,540
So, let's get rid of those two guys

301
00:09:55,540 --> 00:09:57,200
and we'll start to talk.

302
00:09:57,660 --> 00:10:00,040
And I think they may have been sacrificed.

303
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,980
Set up, set up to begin with.

304
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,320
Yeah, set up and sacrifice.

305
00:10:05,580 --> 00:10:11,680
And the excuse will be, well, this Signal

306
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:13,820
thing, somebody had to take a fall for

307
00:10:13,820 --> 00:10:13,920
it.

308
00:10:14,860 --> 00:10:15,420
Yeah.

309
00:10:15,420 --> 00:10:17,120
Even though it is a required app, which

310
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:22,200
makes me question the Signal even more now.

311
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,840
Yeah, CIA, it's got a backdoor, obviously.

312
00:10:26,220 --> 00:10:27,300
It has to have a backdoor.

313
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:28,580
It must have a backdoor.

314
00:10:29,060 --> 00:10:29,620
Sure.

315
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,240
Well, all this comes amidst the most important

316
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:32,620
thing.

317
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,900
And I did the calculation this morning.

318
00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:38,080
We today, John, as of today, May 1st,

319
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:44,340
2025, are celebrating 6,397 days of broadcasting

320
00:10:44,340 --> 00:10:45,680
to Gitmo Nation.

321
00:10:45,820 --> 00:10:46,800
Congratulations, sir.

322
00:10:49,630 --> 00:10:51,010
This is where you say congratulations.

323
00:10:51,310 --> 00:10:51,790
Congratulations?

324
00:10:52,490 --> 00:10:53,570
Yes, congratulations.

325
00:10:53,770 --> 00:10:56,530
Because it's a lot more than this.

326
00:10:56,750 --> 00:11:00,350
President Trump, the first 100 days continues.

327
00:11:00,950 --> 00:11:01,770
It continues.

328
00:11:02,230 --> 00:11:02,610
The what?

329
00:11:02,750 --> 00:11:04,090
First 100 days.

330
00:11:04,670 --> 00:11:06,630
What is this 100 days thing all about?

331
00:11:06,630 --> 00:11:08,830
I mean, I don't remember this the first

332
00:11:08,830 --> 00:11:09,590
Trump go around.

333
00:11:09,690 --> 00:11:10,930
I don't remember during Biden.

334
00:11:11,070 --> 00:11:11,350
I don't remember.

335
00:11:11,410 --> 00:11:12,790
The only last time I remember the first

336
00:11:12,790 --> 00:11:15,610
100 days was, I think, when Steve Jobs

337
00:11:15,610 --> 00:11:17,010
rolled out the Macintosh.

338
00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:19,450
No, I think 100 days has been around.

339
00:11:21,150 --> 00:11:22,030
It has.

340
00:11:22,950 --> 00:11:24,150
Well, they're milking it.

341
00:11:24,290 --> 00:11:26,250
Well, of course, they're milking it, including the

342
00:11:26,250 --> 00:11:26,630
BBC.

343
00:11:26,810 --> 00:11:29,450
Donald Trump has been marking 100 days since

344
00:11:29,450 --> 00:11:31,710
he was sworn in as the 47th president

345
00:11:31,710 --> 00:11:33,090
of the United States.

346
00:11:33,090 --> 00:11:34,770
And in case you missed any of it,

347
00:11:34,950 --> 00:11:36,790
here's a reminder of the story so far.

348
00:11:36,970 --> 00:11:37,070
Yes.

349
00:11:37,190 --> 00:11:42,110
From this moment on, America's decline is over.

350
00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:43,170
Over.

351
00:11:43,570 --> 00:11:43,810
Over.

352
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:48,470
I'm about to sign some very important executive

353
00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:49,130
orders.

354
00:11:49,290 --> 00:11:51,530
Military personnel to assist Border Patrol.

355
00:11:51,650 --> 00:11:56,270
30,000 beds in Guantanamo to detain the

356
00:11:56,270 --> 00:11:57,810
worst criminal illegal aliens.

357
00:11:57,930 --> 00:11:59,970
The US will take over the Gaza Strip.

358
00:12:00,230 --> 00:12:00,790
We'll own it.

359
00:12:00,790 --> 00:12:03,190
Air Force One is currently flying over the

360
00:12:03,190 --> 00:12:05,270
recently renamed Gulf of America.

361
00:12:05,450 --> 00:12:07,830
If all of the hostages aren't returned, let

362
00:12:07,830 --> 00:12:08,630
hell break out.

363
00:12:08,790 --> 00:12:11,730
The Department of Government Efficiency moves to revamp

364
00:12:11,730 --> 00:12:12,510
and shrink.

365
00:12:12,650 --> 00:12:15,330
I love the little drum roll in the

366
00:12:15,330 --> 00:12:15,450
background.

367
00:12:15,550 --> 00:12:16,650
Of the federal government.

368
00:12:16,730 --> 00:12:19,550
People voted for major government reform, and that's

369
00:12:19,550 --> 00:12:20,310
what people are going to get.

370
00:12:20,450 --> 00:12:21,990
A dictator without elections.

371
00:12:22,710 --> 00:12:24,130
Zelensky better move fast.

372
00:12:24,250 --> 00:12:25,030
Should I run again?

373
00:12:25,090 --> 00:12:25,750
You tell me.

374
00:12:26,970 --> 00:12:29,230
You should be thanking the president for trying

375
00:12:29,230 --> 00:12:30,750
to bring it into this conflict.

376
00:12:30,850 --> 00:12:31,590
Have you ever been to Ukraine?

377
00:12:31,810 --> 00:12:32,990
You're not in a good position.

378
00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:33,390
I was.

379
00:12:33,490 --> 00:12:35,170
You don't have the cards right now.

380
00:12:35,290 --> 00:12:37,030
Tariffs, you know, they're all set.

381
00:12:37,130 --> 00:12:38,130
They go into effect tomorrow.

382
00:12:38,330 --> 00:12:40,290
Hopefully we can get a ceasefire from Russia.

383
00:12:40,610 --> 00:12:42,690
There were nearly 200 who were sent to

384
00:12:42,690 --> 00:12:43,170
El Salvador.

385
00:12:43,370 --> 00:12:45,770
Department of Education, we're going to eliminate it.

386
00:12:45,830 --> 00:12:47,810
Details of the US attack plans were first

387
00:12:47,810 --> 00:12:49,730
shared two days early with Jeffrey Goldberg.

388
00:12:49,850 --> 00:12:51,050
I don't know anything about it.

389
00:12:51,210 --> 00:12:52,170
We have to have Greenland.

390
00:12:52,370 --> 00:12:54,590
This is Liberation Day.

391
00:12:54,590 --> 00:12:57,650
The United States will implement reciprocal tariffs.

392
00:12:57,890 --> 00:12:59,710
We've been meeting with China.

393
00:12:59,910 --> 00:13:01,610
We're putting a lot of pressure on Russia.

394
00:13:01,810 --> 00:13:03,170
You have to have Ukraine want to make

395
00:13:03,170 --> 00:13:03,750
a deal too.

396
00:13:04,070 --> 00:13:05,710
America is back.

397
00:13:07,890 --> 00:13:09,530
You know why they didn't do this for

398
00:13:09,530 --> 00:13:09,830
Biden?

399
00:13:09,930 --> 00:13:11,270
Because all they would have for the montage

400
00:13:11,270 --> 00:13:18,050
is, Dignity.

401
00:13:18,210 --> 00:13:21,450
Do you remember back in 1984 when Ronald

402
00:13:21,450 --> 00:13:22,650
Reagan became president?

403
00:13:23,330 --> 00:13:24,970
He became president in 1980.

404
00:13:26,330 --> 00:13:28,090
He was reelected in 84.

405
00:13:28,890 --> 00:13:29,750
Yeah, right.

406
00:13:30,410 --> 00:13:33,210
Do you remember the Morning in America campaign?

407
00:13:34,090 --> 00:13:34,730
Vaguely.

408
00:13:36,530 --> 00:13:38,530
It's morning again in America.

409
00:13:39,810 --> 00:13:41,890
Today, more men and women will go to

410
00:13:41,890 --> 00:13:43,770
work than ever before in our country's history.

411
00:13:44,850 --> 00:13:47,050
With interest rates at about half the record

412
00:13:47,050 --> 00:13:50,630
highs of 1980, nearly 2,000 families today

413
00:13:50,630 --> 00:13:51,510
will buy new homes.

414
00:13:52,190 --> 00:13:54,110
More than at any time in the past

415
00:13:54,110 --> 00:13:54,750
four years.

416
00:13:57,190 --> 00:14:00,610
This afternoon, 6,500 young men and women

417
00:14:00,610 --> 00:14:01,270
will be married.

418
00:14:02,330 --> 00:14:03,930
And with inflation of less than half of

419
00:14:03,930 --> 00:14:06,650
what it was just four years ago, they

420
00:14:06,650 --> 00:14:08,930
can look forward with confidence to the future.

421
00:14:11,670 --> 00:14:13,450
It's morning again in America.

422
00:14:14,390 --> 00:14:17,750
And under the leadership of President Reagan, our

423
00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:21,270
country is prouder and stronger and better.

424
00:14:22,650 --> 00:14:24,550
Why would we ever want to return to

425
00:14:24,550 --> 00:14:26,990
where we were less than four short years

426
00:14:26,990 --> 00:14:27,430
ago?

427
00:14:29,730 --> 00:14:31,550
It's morning in America.

428
00:14:31,690 --> 00:14:34,410
It's one of the most famous ads of

429
00:14:34,410 --> 00:14:35,050
its time.

430
00:14:35,150 --> 00:14:37,650
And we have a modern day version.

431
00:14:37,990 --> 00:14:39,190
It's a new day.

432
00:14:41,850 --> 00:14:43,330
The sun is rising.

433
00:14:44,130 --> 00:14:45,350
The birds are singing.

434
00:14:46,190 --> 00:14:48,870
And things are returning to normal.

435
00:14:50,110 --> 00:14:52,490
It's norming in America.

436
00:14:53,770 --> 00:14:57,110
Today, we're actually arresting shoplifters.

437
00:14:57,570 --> 00:14:59,870
And fewer businesses are being burned down.

438
00:15:00,410 --> 00:15:03,690
All over America, pronouns are being dropped from

439
00:15:03,690 --> 00:15:04,050
bios.

440
00:15:05,190 --> 00:15:06,670
Men are not having babies.

441
00:15:07,270 --> 00:15:10,410
And fewer drag queens are flashing their genitals

442
00:15:10,410 --> 00:15:10,950
at children.

443
00:15:11,910 --> 00:15:14,490
Videos like this one aren't being shadow banned

444
00:15:14,490 --> 00:15:14,990
as much.

445
00:15:15,690 --> 00:15:17,210
People are saying master bedroom.

446
00:15:18,070 --> 00:15:19,130
And look at that.

447
00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:22,270
White people are reappearing in commercials.

448
00:15:23,350 --> 00:15:26,590
Oh, and guys, we can say guys again.

449
00:15:27,790 --> 00:15:30,370
America, the fever has broken.

450
00:15:31,230 --> 00:15:35,670
Now we can be sensible, nicer, and normal.

451
00:15:36,430 --> 00:15:37,030
Join us.

452
00:15:37,630 --> 00:15:40,710
And let's never go back to those weird,

453
00:15:41,170 --> 00:15:43,990
angry, divisive times again.

454
00:15:45,390 --> 00:15:47,550
It's norming in America.

455
00:15:47,630 --> 00:15:48,650
That's right, baby.

456
00:15:49,510 --> 00:15:51,490
Have a great norming, you hear?

457
00:15:53,330 --> 00:15:54,430
Same PR team.

458
00:15:54,710 --> 00:15:54,970
Clearly.

459
00:15:55,810 --> 00:15:57,130
It's norming in America.

460
00:15:57,270 --> 00:15:57,830
It's very funny.

461
00:15:57,930 --> 00:15:59,230
I like that.

462
00:15:59,390 --> 00:16:00,190
I thought that was good.

463
00:16:01,070 --> 00:16:03,310
That brings me immediately to a nutball clip.

464
00:16:03,590 --> 00:16:04,650
Okay, are you on the mic, man?

465
00:16:04,690 --> 00:16:05,130
Are you talking?

466
00:16:05,250 --> 00:16:05,950
Are you spitting in that?

467
00:16:05,950 --> 00:16:06,930
Yeah, I hope so.

468
00:16:07,070 --> 00:16:09,030
I'm gonna jack you up some more.

469
00:16:10,170 --> 00:16:11,150
Jack me up.

470
00:16:14,490 --> 00:16:16,730
The opening show things right themselves.

471
00:16:16,990 --> 00:16:18,670
Okay, that brings you to a clip immediately,

472
00:16:18,750 --> 00:16:19,290
you said.

473
00:16:19,490 --> 00:16:20,010
What kind of clip?

474
00:16:20,570 --> 00:16:22,630
This is the ranting lunatic chick.

475
00:16:25,510 --> 00:16:27,310
Wait a minute, you're going straight to TikTok?

476
00:16:27,610 --> 00:16:29,070
Can we do this this early in the

477
00:16:29,070 --> 00:16:29,270
show?

478
00:16:29,370 --> 00:16:30,170
Can we handle it?

479
00:16:31,350 --> 00:16:33,750
Maybe not, but this is definitely, it will

480
00:16:33,750 --> 00:16:34,570
set the tone.

481
00:16:35,030 --> 00:16:35,470
You know what?

482
00:16:35,930 --> 00:16:37,730
Okay, I know I'm insane, and I know

483
00:16:37,730 --> 00:16:39,050
I'm the internet's favorite crash out.

484
00:16:39,590 --> 00:16:40,670
What I'm gonna say right now- Wait,

485
00:16:40,730 --> 00:16:41,390
clash out?

486
00:16:42,210 --> 00:16:42,850
Clash out.

487
00:16:42,950 --> 00:16:43,490
Clash out.

488
00:16:43,490 --> 00:16:44,030
I like that.

489
00:16:44,310 --> 00:16:45,190
Crash out, crash, crash.

490
00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:46,150
She said crash out?

491
00:16:46,230 --> 00:16:47,010
I thought she said clash out.

492
00:16:47,030 --> 00:16:48,170
I think she said crash out.

493
00:16:48,950 --> 00:16:49,430
You know what?

494
00:16:49,890 --> 00:16:51,690
Okay, I know I'm insane, and I know

495
00:16:51,690 --> 00:16:52,970
I'm the internet's favorite crash out.

496
00:16:53,430 --> 00:16:55,450
What I'm gonna say right now is I'm

497
00:16:55,450 --> 00:16:56,670
not paying my debt anymore.

498
00:16:57,090 --> 00:16:59,290
What we're doing from this point forward is

499
00:16:59,290 --> 00:17:00,730
a debt strike 2025.

500
00:17:01,010 --> 00:17:02,050
If I have to do it alone and

501
00:17:02,050 --> 00:17:03,569
be insane, I will.

502
00:17:04,230 --> 00:17:05,310
I literally will.

503
00:17:05,630 --> 00:17:07,530
The fact that we would continue paying our

504
00:17:07,530 --> 00:17:08,950
debt, we can't stop paying our rent, because

505
00:17:08,950 --> 00:17:09,609
that's too crazy.

506
00:17:09,670 --> 00:17:10,670
It'll put a lot of people in harm.

507
00:17:10,950 --> 00:17:11,950
I'm sick of protesting.

508
00:17:12,050 --> 00:17:12,770
It does nothing.

509
00:17:12,770 --> 00:17:14,530
I don't want to go to war, because

510
00:17:14,530 --> 00:17:16,190
look how skinny my arms are.

511
00:17:16,550 --> 00:17:17,750
We have to do something.

512
00:17:18,089 --> 00:17:19,250
I'm not paying my debt.

513
00:17:19,410 --> 00:17:20,930
You can join me on this, or you

514
00:17:20,930 --> 00:17:21,210
cannot.

515
00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:23,630
I'm going to take a picture, and I'm

516
00:17:23,630 --> 00:17:24,810
going to keep records of the debt that

517
00:17:24,810 --> 00:17:26,410
I have right now, because when the interest

518
00:17:26,410 --> 00:17:27,850
rates go up on that, I'm not paying

519
00:17:27,850 --> 00:17:29,870
those either, even when they start to meet

520
00:17:29,870 --> 00:17:30,310
our demands.

521
00:17:30,630 --> 00:17:31,910
And the demands are as such.

522
00:17:33,090 --> 00:17:34,950
Abolish ICE, okay?

523
00:17:35,130 --> 00:17:36,770
I want those men home from El Salvador.

524
00:17:36,930 --> 00:17:37,530
I don't care.

525
00:17:40,550 --> 00:17:42,190
And we need to protect Medicaid.

526
00:17:42,770 --> 00:17:44,990
The Department of Education needs to be restored.

527
00:17:45,390 --> 00:17:47,550
I want critical race theory in the classroom,

528
00:17:48,030 --> 00:17:48,350
period.

529
00:17:48,930 --> 00:17:51,290
We need to literally be delusional.

530
00:17:51,690 --> 00:17:53,030
I'm going to be delusional right now.

531
00:17:53,230 --> 00:17:55,090
I will stand here right now, be delusional,

532
00:17:55,270 --> 00:17:56,230
make fun of me all you want.

533
00:17:56,370 --> 00:17:57,470
This is what we need to do.

534
00:17:57,850 --> 00:17:58,910
This is what we need to do.

535
00:17:59,050 --> 00:18:01,130
And if they don't meet our demands, then

536
00:18:01,130 --> 00:18:02,930
what we're going to do is then we're

537
00:18:02,930 --> 00:18:03,710
going to stop paying our rent.

538
00:18:03,950 --> 00:18:06,010
But for right now, stop paying your bills.

539
00:18:06,190 --> 00:18:07,070
Stop paying your debt.

540
00:18:07,070 --> 00:18:08,270
We're going to start there.

541
00:18:08,590 --> 00:18:10,110
And it's like, what the fuck do I

542
00:18:10,110 --> 00:18:12,410
have to owe my credit score for the

543
00:18:12,410 --> 00:18:13,790
house that I'll never buy?

544
00:18:15,170 --> 00:18:17,350
I already am not allowed to rent because

545
00:18:17,350 --> 00:18:18,270
I don't make enough money.

546
00:18:18,390 --> 00:18:19,310
I have to have a cosigner anyway.

547
00:18:19,390 --> 00:18:20,750
So what does my credit score even fucking

548
00:18:20,750 --> 00:18:20,990
matter?

549
00:18:22,090 --> 00:18:24,110
What does it matter, bro?

550
00:18:24,350 --> 00:18:27,970
Literally, I want Doge out of office.

551
00:18:28,430 --> 00:18:29,110
We're done with him.

552
00:18:29,710 --> 00:18:30,630
We're done with him.

553
00:18:30,810 --> 00:18:32,670
And free healthcare for all people.

554
00:18:32,990 --> 00:18:34,250
I'm so dead serious.

555
00:18:34,510 --> 00:18:35,950
Guys, we're done with this.

556
00:18:35,950 --> 00:18:38,110
I love that she called herself delusional.

557
00:18:38,430 --> 00:18:39,310
That is some...

558
00:18:40,630 --> 00:18:42,770
That's a bipolar episode.

559
00:18:42,830 --> 00:18:43,910
No, no.

560
00:18:44,090 --> 00:18:46,250
That's engagement farming on TikTok.

561
00:18:46,670 --> 00:18:47,350
I don't think...

562
00:18:47,350 --> 00:18:48,770
I think you have to see her.

563
00:18:49,010 --> 00:18:49,930
She's pretty serious.

564
00:18:50,150 --> 00:18:50,930
No, this is...

565
00:18:50,930 --> 00:18:51,870
It's all an act.

566
00:18:52,170 --> 00:18:52,590
It's all an act.

567
00:18:52,730 --> 00:18:54,410
She's a pretty good actress then.

568
00:18:54,410 --> 00:18:55,010
She's pretty funny.

569
00:18:55,410 --> 00:18:56,550
She got on the No Agenda show.

570
00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:57,350
I'll give her that.

571
00:18:58,870 --> 00:18:59,810
Yeah, she did.

572
00:19:00,690 --> 00:19:02,230
But this is part of...

573
00:19:02,230 --> 00:19:04,750
There's also another movement going on besides not

574
00:19:04,750 --> 00:19:05,350
paying your bills.

575
00:19:06,230 --> 00:19:06,630
These...

576
00:19:06,630 --> 00:19:07,750
None of this is going to work, of

577
00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:09,350
course, because it's a very small minority.

578
00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:10,730
Yes, it's norming in America.

579
00:19:10,730 --> 00:19:12,010
But there's a bunch of people calling for

580
00:19:12,010 --> 00:19:15,150
the illegal, which is a general strike.

581
00:19:16,010 --> 00:19:18,350
And they're calling for a general strike.

582
00:19:19,670 --> 00:19:21,270
And I think it was for May Day

583
00:19:21,270 --> 00:19:22,630
of next year, maybe.

584
00:19:23,030 --> 00:19:24,130
Oh, they're getting ahead of the game.

585
00:19:24,210 --> 00:19:25,410
They're front running the strike.

586
00:19:27,210 --> 00:19:29,650
But I'm noticing it's starting to show up

587
00:19:29,650 --> 00:19:31,130
more and more about, let's do a general

588
00:19:31,130 --> 00:19:31,510
strike.

589
00:19:31,550 --> 00:19:32,550
That's going to do it.

590
00:19:32,550 --> 00:19:37,050
Well, today is, of course, a dual celebration.

591
00:19:37,750 --> 00:19:38,610
Today is May Day.

592
00:19:39,150 --> 00:19:40,410
And what is May Day?

593
00:19:41,090 --> 00:19:42,730
May Day is workers...

594
00:19:42,730 --> 00:19:43,650
It's the workers' day.

595
00:19:43,830 --> 00:19:43,990
It's...

596
00:19:43,990 --> 00:19:45,230
This is the day of...

597
00:19:45,230 --> 00:19:45,530
Commies.

598
00:19:45,550 --> 00:19:46,310
...of the working man.

599
00:19:47,710 --> 00:19:48,150
What?

600
00:19:48,650 --> 00:19:49,590
It's a communist holiday.

601
00:19:49,770 --> 00:19:50,790
Yeah, communist holiday.

602
00:19:51,390 --> 00:19:51,630
Yeah.

603
00:19:51,790 --> 00:19:53,810
Would you be surprised to hear that this

604
00:19:53,810 --> 00:19:56,010
falls on the exact same day as the

605
00:19:56,010 --> 00:19:57,090
National Day of Prayer?

606
00:19:58,790 --> 00:20:00,470
Well, I know it is the National Day

607
00:20:00,470 --> 00:20:03,130
of Prayer because Trump was on the air.

608
00:20:03,390 --> 00:20:03,590
Of course.

609
00:20:03,630 --> 00:20:05,890
And he just could not stop talking.

610
00:20:06,130 --> 00:20:07,630
It's called counter-programming, man.

611
00:20:07,810 --> 00:20:09,030
It's like, we're not going to pay any

612
00:20:09,030 --> 00:20:10,110
attention to the commies.

613
00:20:10,230 --> 00:20:11,470
It's National Day of Prayer.

614
00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:13,550
That is good.

615
00:20:13,630 --> 00:20:14,650
It's counter-programming.

616
00:20:14,810 --> 00:20:15,250
It's a good job.

617
00:20:15,250 --> 00:20:16,250
World's workers' day.

618
00:20:16,710 --> 00:20:17,230
Workers unite.

619
00:20:17,650 --> 00:20:18,730
Pray, pray.

620
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,880
Anyway, it is 100 days.

621
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:23,960
It's also a show day.

622
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:24,980
It is a show day.

623
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:26,240
Of course, it's a double...

624
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,100
It's a triple threat.

625
00:20:27,220 --> 00:20:28,240
It is workers' day.

626
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,940
It is National Day of Prayer and a

627
00:20:29,940 --> 00:20:30,360
show day.

628
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:31,420
What more can you do?

629
00:20:32,140 --> 00:20:34,080
But we are celebrating 100 days.

630
00:20:34,220 --> 00:20:36,900
And President Trump chose ABC to do his

631
00:20:36,900 --> 00:20:38,100
100-day...

632
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,680
His 100-day...

633
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,580
The 100-day excoriation of the media.

634
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:43,120
Yes.

635
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:47,560
And most of this was about Kilmar Abrego

636
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,040
-Garcia.

637
00:20:48,300 --> 00:20:49,500
Let me ask you about one man and

638
00:20:49,500 --> 00:20:50,120
one court order.

639
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,720
Kilmar Abrego-Garcia.

640
00:20:51,900 --> 00:20:54,200
He's the Salvadoran man who crossed into this

641
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,800
country illegally, but who is under a protective

642
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:57,340
order.

643
00:20:57,500 --> 00:20:58,820
I think to get into the White House

644
00:20:58,820 --> 00:21:01,740
Correspondents' Dinner, you had to pronounce Kilmar Abrego

645
00:21:01,740 --> 00:21:02,660
-Garcia properly.

646
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:03,900
Otherwise, you weren't allowed in.

647
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,500
That he not be sent back to El

648
00:21:06,500 --> 00:21:06,820
Salvador.

649
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,560
Your government sent him back to El Salvador

650
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,380
and acknowledged in court that was a mistake.

651
00:21:11,740 --> 00:21:14,000
And now the Supreme Court has upheld an

652
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,060
order that you must return him to facilitate

653
00:21:17,060 --> 00:21:18,760
his return to the United States.

654
00:21:18,820 --> 00:21:19,640
What are you doing to comply?

655
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,220
Well, the lawyer that said it was a

656
00:21:21,220 --> 00:21:24,300
mistake was here a long time, was not

657
00:21:24,300 --> 00:21:27,180
appointed by us, should not have said that,

658
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,020
should not have said that, and just so

659
00:21:29,020 --> 00:21:31,480
you understand, the person that you're talking about,

660
00:21:31,580 --> 00:21:33,680
you know, you're making this person sound, this

661
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,000
is a MS-13 gang member, a tough

662
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,080
cookie, been in lots of skirmishes, beat the

663
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,040
hell out of his wife, and the wife

664
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,140
was petrified to even talk about him, okay?

665
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,340
This is not an innocent, wonderful gentleman from

666
00:21:47,340 --> 00:21:47,440
Maryland.

667
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,780
I'm not saying he's a good guy.

668
00:21:49,020 --> 00:21:50,000
It's about the rule of law.

669
00:21:50,100 --> 00:21:52,200
The order from the Supreme Court sends him

670
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,860
into our country illegally.

671
00:21:54,060 --> 00:21:54,700
You could get him back.

672
00:21:54,820 --> 00:21:56,220
There's a phone on this desk.

673
00:21:56,260 --> 00:21:56,640
I could.

674
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,140
You could pick it up, and with all

675
00:21:58,140 --> 00:21:59,900
the power of the presidency, you could call

676
00:21:59,900 --> 00:22:01,300
up the president of El Salvador and say,

677
00:22:01,380 --> 00:22:01,840
send him back.

678
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:02,460
Nope, not good.

679
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:04,460
And if he were the gentleman that you

680
00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:05,820
say he is, I would do that.

681
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,840
But the court has ordered you to facilitate

682
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:08,520
his release.

683
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,540
I'm not the one making this decision.

684
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,640
We have lawyers that don't want to do

685
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,060
this.

686
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,720
But the buck stops in this office.

687
00:22:15,020 --> 00:22:16,120
No, no, no, no, no, no.

688
00:22:16,120 --> 00:22:17,120
I follow the law.

689
00:22:17,380 --> 00:22:18,600
You want me to follow the law?

690
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,320
If I were the president that just wanted

691
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,200
to do anything, I'd probably keep him right

692
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:22,680
where he is.

693
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,200
The Supreme Court says what the law is.

694
00:22:24,420 --> 00:22:26,520
Yeah, this was so good because the president

695
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:27,760
really thought that he was going to get

696
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:28,600
a pass somehow.

697
00:22:28,780 --> 00:22:30,380
But this, I chose you.

698
00:22:30,580 --> 00:22:31,740
I chose you, ABC.

699
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,260
I chose you, Terry Moran.

700
00:22:33,420 --> 00:22:37,320
Listen, I was elected to take care of

701
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,240
a problem that was, it was a unforced

702
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,100
error that was made by a very incompetent

703
00:22:44,100 --> 00:22:44,380
man.

704
00:22:44,460 --> 00:22:46,260
A man that turned out to be incompetent

705
00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:48,460
that you always said was wonderful, great genius,

706
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:48,740
right?

707
00:22:49,020 --> 00:22:50,920
And now you find out, all of the

708
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,760
media now, they're saying what a mistake they

709
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,080
made.

710
00:22:53,820 --> 00:22:56,820
A man who was grossly incompetent allowed us

711
00:22:56,820 --> 00:22:58,900
to have open borders where millions of people

712
00:22:58,900 --> 00:22:59,600
float in.

713
00:22:59,740 --> 00:23:01,200
I campaigned on that issue.

714
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,260
I wouldn't say it was my number one

715
00:23:03,260 --> 00:23:04,340
issue, but it was pretty close.

716
00:23:04,940 --> 00:23:06,360
I campaigned on that issue.

717
00:23:06,780 --> 00:23:08,140
I've done an amazing job.

718
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,100
I have closed borders.

719
00:23:09,220 --> 00:23:10,480
He said you couldn't do it and you

720
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:11,400
wouldn't be able to do it.

721
00:23:11,420 --> 00:23:12,200
It would never happen.

722
00:23:12,340 --> 00:23:13,240
Well, it happened.

723
00:23:13,460 --> 00:23:14,620
And it happened very quickly.

724
00:23:14,740 --> 00:23:15,040
Wait a minute.

725
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,940
When we have criminals, murderers, criminals in this

726
00:23:18,940 --> 00:23:20,740
country, we have to get them out.

727
00:23:20,820 --> 00:23:21,680
And we're doing it.

728
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,560
And here comes the bone of the contention,

729
00:23:23,980 --> 00:23:24,600
the tattoo.

730
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:26,860
You'll pick out one man, but even the

731
00:23:26,860 --> 00:23:29,100
man that you picked out, he said he

732
00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:30,780
wasn't a member of a gang.

733
00:23:31,340 --> 00:23:33,500
And then they looked and on his knuckles,

734
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,780
he had MS-13.

735
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:36,400
There's a dispute with that.

736
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:37,320
Wait a minute.

737
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,380
He had MS-13 on his knuckles tattoo.

738
00:23:40,620 --> 00:23:42,380
He had some tattoos that are interpreted that

739
00:23:42,380 --> 00:23:42,500
way.

740
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,320
But let's move on.

741
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:43,880
Wait a minute.

742
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,440
Hey, Terry, Terry, Terry.

743
00:23:45,620 --> 00:23:47,960
He did not have the letter MS-13.

744
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,400
It says MS-13.

745
00:23:49,740 --> 00:23:50,660
That was Photoshopped.

746
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:51,320
Photoshopped?

747
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,820
That was Photoshopped.

748
00:23:52,860 --> 00:23:53,780
Terry, you can't do that.

749
00:23:54,220 --> 00:23:55,700
Hey, they're giving you the big break of

750
00:23:55,700 --> 00:23:56,140
a lifetime.

751
00:23:56,380 --> 00:23:57,460
You know, you're doing the interview.

752
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,580
I picked you because, frankly, I never heard

753
00:23:59,580 --> 00:24:00,500
of you, but that's OK.

754
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,640
I picked you, Terry, but you're not being

755
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,120
very nice.

756
00:24:05,540 --> 00:24:06,920
He had MS-13 tattooed.

757
00:24:07,140 --> 00:24:07,800
We'll agree to disagree.

758
00:24:08,020 --> 00:24:09,020
I want to move on to something else.

759
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:10,460
Agree to disagree.

760
00:24:10,780 --> 00:24:11,480
Do you want me to show you the

761
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:11,720
picture?

762
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,700
By the way, by the way, that is

763
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:16,200
the lowest of the low outs.

764
00:24:16,500 --> 00:24:17,720
I agree to disagree.

765
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:20,040
I know I hear it on podcasts all

766
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:20,440
the time.

767
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,680
You and I, we just fight.

768
00:24:22,820 --> 00:24:24,800
We never agree to disagree.

769
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:26,320
It's like, you're wrong.

770
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:27,480
I don't think we've ever done.

771
00:24:27,580 --> 00:24:28,060
Not that you may.

772
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:29,960
I never thought about this, but in 17

773
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,680
years, I don't think we've ever used that

774
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,540
phrase on each other.

775
00:24:32,580 --> 00:24:34,220
We've never gone to bed angry at each

776
00:24:34,220 --> 00:24:34,700
other either.

777
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:38,040
Well, well, who cares?

778
00:24:38,900 --> 00:24:40,920
Terry, but you're not being very nice.

779
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,760
He had MS-13 tattooed.

780
00:24:43,180 --> 00:24:43,620
We'll agree to disagree.

781
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,920
I want to move on to something else.

782
00:24:45,220 --> 00:24:47,180
Terry, do you want me to show you

783
00:24:47,180 --> 00:24:47,580
the picture?

784
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:48,760
I saw the picture.

785
00:24:49,230 --> 00:24:50,780
And you think it was photoshopped?

786
00:24:51,100 --> 00:24:51,540
Well, here we go.

787
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,640
Don't photoshop it.

788
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:53,580
Don't look at his hand.

789
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,120
He did have tattoos that can be interpreted

790
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:56,480
that way.

791
00:24:56,620 --> 00:24:57,480
I'm not an expert on them.

792
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:58,480
I want to turn to Ukraine.

793
00:24:58,840 --> 00:24:59,780
I want to get to Ukraine.

794
00:24:59,940 --> 00:25:01,200
No, no, no, no, no.

795
00:25:01,900 --> 00:25:04,480
He had MS as clear as you can

796
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:04,620
be.

797
00:25:04,740 --> 00:25:05,560
Not interpreted.

798
00:25:05,740 --> 00:25:06,360
It's photoshopped!

799
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:08,840
This is why people no longer believe the

800
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,320
news because he's fake news.

801
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,040
In El Salvador, they aren't there.

802
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:14,000
But let's just go.

803
00:25:14,020 --> 00:25:15,640
They aren't there when he's in El Salvador.

804
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,000
Oh, they weren't there, but they're there now,

805
00:25:18,020 --> 00:25:18,220
right?

806
00:25:18,220 --> 00:25:19,800
No, but they're in your picture.

807
00:25:19,940 --> 00:25:20,160
Terry.

808
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:20,940
Ukraine, sir.

809
00:25:21,100 --> 00:25:23,480
He's got MS-13 on his knuckles.

810
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:24,240
All right.

811
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,000
OK?

812
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:26,020
Well, we'll take a look at that.

813
00:25:26,020 --> 00:25:27,660
It's such a disservice.

814
00:25:27,820 --> 00:25:28,840
We'll take a look at that, sir.

815
00:25:28,860 --> 00:25:30,580
Why don't you just say yes, he does.

816
00:25:30,940 --> 00:25:32,440
You know, go on to something else.

817
00:25:32,580 --> 00:25:33,060
It's contested.

818
00:25:33,820 --> 00:25:37,080
So this is a contentious issue because many

819
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,860
people have emailed me this saying, Trump, he's

820
00:25:39,860 --> 00:25:40,720
not doing his homework.

821
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,980
He should just take the L.

822
00:25:43,060 --> 00:25:44,260
It was photoshopped.

823
00:25:44,580 --> 00:25:45,640
Now, there's two pictures.

824
00:25:46,500 --> 00:25:46,860
There's one.

825
00:25:46,860 --> 00:25:49,100
One of them's got some, you'd call it

826
00:25:49,100 --> 00:25:51,960
photoshopped, explaining what the symbols mean.

827
00:25:52,020 --> 00:25:52,660
MS-13.

828
00:25:52,820 --> 00:25:54,300
That's what the photoshopped part is.

829
00:25:54,460 --> 00:25:54,680
No, no.

830
00:25:55,620 --> 00:25:58,040
It is MS-13 on his knuckles.

831
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,460
But the second photo taken in Ukraine, you

832
00:26:01,460 --> 00:26:02,400
don't see that.

833
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,560
In fact, what you do see is his

834
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,000
knuckles are all smudged.

835
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:07,720
That's the photoshop.

836
00:26:08,300 --> 00:26:11,320
No, the MS-13, there's no M on

837
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:11,860
his knuckles.

838
00:26:12,020 --> 00:26:12,240
No, no.

839
00:26:12,340 --> 00:26:15,260
They showed a picture of MS-13 on

840
00:26:15,260 --> 00:26:15,740
his knuckles.

841
00:26:15,740 --> 00:26:17,160
They showed that picture.

842
00:26:17,660 --> 00:26:19,300
That's the photoshopped version.

843
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:20,940
I wonder if that's photoshopped.

844
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:22,160
Yeah, it is.

845
00:26:22,360 --> 00:26:24,420
It's obviously, if you look at it carefully,

846
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,740
it's just the letters are too clear because

847
00:26:26,740 --> 00:26:28,600
the symbols mean MS-13.

848
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:29,580
That was the idea.

849
00:26:29,780 --> 00:26:32,340
But I'm just saying the pictures they showed

850
00:26:32,340 --> 00:26:35,020
in this piece showed what you call a

851
00:26:35,020 --> 00:26:37,380
photoshop, but I would say the other picture,

852
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,640
where his knuckles are completely smudged, that's a

853
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:41,100
photoshop.

854
00:26:41,620 --> 00:26:42,920
I think that's photoshop too.

855
00:26:43,020 --> 00:26:44,380
They could both be photoshopped.

856
00:26:44,380 --> 00:26:47,200
Yes, the symbols stand for MS-13.

857
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,000
Yeah, that's all there is to it.

858
00:26:49,020 --> 00:26:50,100
And he beat up his wife.

859
00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:51,280
Since when are we doing this?

860
00:26:51,380 --> 00:26:51,820
Since when are we doing that?

861
00:26:52,540 --> 00:26:54,820
Apparently, there's another report that came out this

862
00:26:54,820 --> 00:26:56,900
morning where he also did something.

863
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,380
He also beat his wife into...

864
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,240
There's some other beating that took place.

865
00:27:01,420 --> 00:27:02,820
It's more part of this whole thing.

866
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:03,740
More beatings.

867
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,140
Ah, yes, you are listening to the No

868
00:27:05,140 --> 00:27:05,900
Agenda Show.

869
00:27:06,140 --> 00:27:06,860
Still ahead.

870
00:27:06,940 --> 00:27:10,380
I'm asking the justification for going after people

871
00:27:10,380 --> 00:27:11,220
you don't like.

872
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,300
We'll be back with more of Trump's 100

873
00:27:14,300 --> 00:27:14,960
days.

874
00:27:15,140 --> 00:27:15,580
Or not.

875
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,900
So that was big from the M5M this

876
00:27:18,900 --> 00:27:19,100
week.

877
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:19,960
100 days.

878
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,560
What's happened?

879
00:27:27,620 --> 00:27:29,280
Well, I don't have any 100-day stuff.

880
00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:31,260
I have what the Democrats did, which I

881
00:27:31,260 --> 00:27:32,700
thought was the best part of the week.

882
00:27:32,780 --> 00:27:34,320
Oh, this is with Hogg?

883
00:27:34,380 --> 00:27:35,040
The Hogg Kid?

884
00:27:35,620 --> 00:27:37,380
Oh, no, the Hogg Kid's not that interesting.

885
00:27:37,660 --> 00:27:39,980
The thing I thought that was interesting was

886
00:27:39,980 --> 00:27:41,120
the sit-in.

887
00:27:41,660 --> 00:27:44,120
Yeah, that started on Sunday.

888
00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:47,200
We saw the sit-in start live on

889
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:47,380
the show.

890
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,660
Yeah, we saw it start, but here's the

891
00:27:48,660 --> 00:27:49,300
report.

892
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:52,580
Which, holy mackerel, I didn't clip this correctly.

893
00:27:52,620 --> 00:27:53,940
I can tell by looking at it.

894
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,760
Do you have the name of it?

895
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,540
Yeah, Congress Sit-In.

896
00:27:58,780 --> 00:27:59,220
Okay.

897
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:01,960
Oh, it's okay.

898
00:28:02,180 --> 00:28:02,620
I'll...

899
00:28:02,620 --> 00:28:03,580
We'll roll with it.

900
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,260
We'll figure out what's going on.

901
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:05,840
Let's see what we have.

902
00:28:05,940 --> 00:28:08,840
Congress returns from its spring break today, but

903
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,940
two lawmakers returned to the Capitol a day

904
00:28:10,940 --> 00:28:14,440
earlier in protest of the Republican budget plan.

905
00:28:14,740 --> 00:28:16,660
You're looking at House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries

906
00:28:16,660 --> 00:28:18,920
and Senator Cory Booker, who held a sit

907
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,180
-in that lasted more than 12 hours.

908
00:28:21,420 --> 00:28:23,660
This is one of those moments where we

909
00:28:23,660 --> 00:28:26,900
have to step up more as leaders in

910
00:28:26,900 --> 00:28:27,340
Congress.

911
00:28:27,740 --> 00:28:30,020
We are in a moral moment, and what

912
00:28:30,020 --> 00:28:33,180
we need now is not just four Congress

913
00:28:33,180 --> 00:28:35,640
people and four senators, but to get there,

914
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,200
we need more people that are willing to

915
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,160
stand in this moral storm.

916
00:28:40,300 --> 00:28:40,720
In this moment.

917
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,260
CBS News Congressional Correspondent Nicole Killian joins us

918
00:28:43,260 --> 00:28:45,300
now from Capitol Hill with more on this.

919
00:28:45,460 --> 00:28:46,360
Good morning to you, Nicole.

920
00:28:47,260 --> 00:28:49,920
Senator Booker there kind of ended that speech

921
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,220
and everyone standed up.

922
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,380
There was kind of like a rorous applause

923
00:28:53,380 --> 00:28:54,180
around him.

924
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:54,540
It did.

925
00:28:54,860 --> 00:28:57,280
I didn't hear any rorous applause on the

926
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:57,540
clip.

927
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,300
There was some applause, but stand...

928
00:29:00,300 --> 00:29:03,040
The guys, he said they standed up.

929
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:04,340
Well, he's British.

930
00:29:04,340 --> 00:29:04,980
These guys are British.

931
00:29:04,980 --> 00:29:06,640
You bring a British guy in so they

932
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:07,640
can do proper English?

933
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,220
Yes, they standed up.

934
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,100
I've been standed up all the time.

935
00:29:11,300 --> 00:29:12,560
Why do this?

936
00:29:12,700 --> 00:29:14,520
Why conduct a sit-in protest on the

937
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:14,760
weekend?

938
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,440
And from what you can tell, did it

939
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:16,700
resonate?

940
00:29:17,660 --> 00:29:19,340
Well, I think a couple of things, you

941
00:29:19,340 --> 00:29:19,440
know.

942
00:29:19,580 --> 00:29:22,620
Interestingly, I did ask Senator Booker after he

943
00:29:22,620 --> 00:29:24,520
had that record-breaking speech on the Senate

944
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,200
floor earlier this month, if this was a

945
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,300
sign of things to come from Democrats, because

946
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:32,300
of course some have been under fire for

947
00:29:32,300 --> 00:29:34,520
not doing enough to combat the Trump agenda.

948
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,980
He did acknowledge the need on the part

949
00:29:36,980 --> 00:29:38,460
of Democrats to do more.

950
00:29:39,420 --> 00:29:41,680
Obviously, this all happened on the House side

951
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,680
of the steps, which involved minority leader...

952
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:44,880
Okay, you can stop the clip.

953
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:46,300
It goes on.

954
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,380
This woman is one of those women, I

955
00:29:48,380 --> 00:29:49,460
don't know if you ever worked with any

956
00:29:49,460 --> 00:29:50,380
of them, they're in broadcasting.

957
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,800
They can talk forever.

958
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:53,940
Oh, it's...

959
00:29:53,940 --> 00:29:55,240
Gag, gag, gag, gag, gag, gag, gag.

960
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,780
And they have to be interrupted.

961
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,200
They leave very few openings.

962
00:30:00,500 --> 00:30:02,400
When I tried to clip her, I tried

963
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,340
to cut something because she she ran like

964
00:30:05,340 --> 00:30:08,760
she would use and she's like stood and

965
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,600
she would there was no way of writing

966
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,000
you know what I mean.

967
00:30:12,180 --> 00:30:14,080
An unclipable wench, I tell you.

968
00:30:15,820 --> 00:30:16,900
Yes, she's no good.

969
00:30:17,700 --> 00:30:20,500
An unclipable wench who can't stop talking.

970
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,600
I want to play a little bit of

971
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,340
this Hogg thing though because I just thought

972
00:30:25,340 --> 00:30:27,840
it was interesting to show what disarray the

973
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,100
Democrat Party is in.

974
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,700
DNC vice-chair David Hogg was on the

975
00:30:31,700 --> 00:30:32,940
lead last week talking about his plan to

976
00:30:32,940 --> 00:30:36,080
raise 20 million dollars to unseat Democrats and

977
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,700
save seats in primaries.

978
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:39,240
By the way the woman you're gonna hear

979
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:45,520
talking her name is Megan what is it

980
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,860
do I have it here Megan Hayes she

981
00:30:48,860 --> 00:30:50,640
was an advisor to Biden and she has

982
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,640
a most interesting speech impediment.

983
00:30:52,820 --> 00:30:55,080
Now the DNC chairman Ken Martin weighed in

984
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,440
and here's what he had to say.

985
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,440
No DNC officer should ever attempt to influence

986
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,500
the outcome of a primary election whether on

987
00:31:02,500 --> 00:31:04,540
behalf of an incumbent or a challenger.

988
00:31:04,700 --> 00:31:08,500
While you know certainly you know I understand

989
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:10,360
what he's trying to do as I've said

990
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,440
to him if you want to challenge incumbents

991
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,340
you're more than free to do that but

992
00:31:14,340 --> 00:31:17,280
just not as an officer of the DNC.

993
00:31:17,340 --> 00:31:18,660
From Minnesota if you can't tell.

994
00:31:18,860 --> 00:31:21,660
So Hogg's argument is just because he's not

995
00:31:21,660 --> 00:31:23,840
here to defend himself there's a lot of

996
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,220
dead weight in this party and we're talking

997
00:31:26,220 --> 00:31:29,120
about safe Democratic seats so whoever wins is

998
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,600
gonna end up winning anyway and you know

999
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,340
we need to rise to meet the moment

1000
00:31:33,340 --> 00:31:34,060
that's what he would say.

1001
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,060
Great you don't do that as a member

1002
00:31:36,060 --> 00:31:37,800
of the DNC you're an elected person on

1003
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,700
the DNC leave the party and go do

1004
00:31:39,700 --> 00:31:39,880
that.

1005
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,600
The DNC is not an idea that is

1006
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,460
a Democratic Party the DNC is an institution

1007
00:31:44,460 --> 00:31:46,140
with a job to do people vote in

1008
00:31:46,140 --> 00:31:47,840
primaries not the DNC.

1009
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,420
Are you sympathetic to his arguments at all?

1010
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,320
No then don't be part of the DNC.

1011
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:52,760
Well what about the idea that there should

1012
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:53,120
be.

1013
00:31:53,820 --> 00:31:55,500
Absolutely there should be primaries people should be

1014
00:31:55,500 --> 00:31:57,840
primary if that is that is how our

1015
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,040
democracy works but if you want to help

1016
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,760
the primary challengers then leave the DNC that

1017
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,140
is not your role as the DNC.

1018
00:32:04,460 --> 00:32:06,000
How interesting now that I listen to her

1019
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,540
you can't hear it but when you see

1020
00:32:07,540 --> 00:32:10,320
her her mouth goes all weird when she

1021
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:10,780
talks.

1022
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:12,220
That was disappointing.

1023
00:32:12,420 --> 00:32:15,640
That's interesting Kelly Evans on CNBC has a

1024
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,940
has a funny mouth thing.

1025
00:32:18,140 --> 00:32:21,180
The worst-case example of this was a

1026
00:32:21,180 --> 00:32:24,060
is a preacher called Robert Tilton out of

1027
00:32:24,060 --> 00:32:24,540
Texas.

1028
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,560
Not familiar.

1029
00:32:25,780 --> 00:32:28,580
And he used to be a televangelist he's

1030
00:32:28,580 --> 00:32:29,760
on TV all the time but I don't

1031
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,740
think I haven't seen him for years but

1032
00:32:31,740 --> 00:32:33,940
he did a thing with his mouth that

1033
00:32:33,940 --> 00:32:35,580
you'd watch him it was like it would

1034
00:32:35,580 --> 00:32:38,040
be kind of mesmerizing because his mouth wasn't

1035
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,300
going in the same direction.

1036
00:32:39,860 --> 00:32:41,180
It was very odd.

1037
00:32:42,180 --> 00:32:44,560
Then they brought on this just short Ro

1038
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,980
Khanna Ro Khanna which is just fun to

1039
00:32:47,980 --> 00:32:48,940
say Ro Khanna.

1040
00:32:49,180 --> 00:32:51,260
Joining us now to discuss Democratic Congressman Ro

1041
00:32:51,260 --> 00:32:52,480
Khanna of California.

1042
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:53,960
Congressman always great to have you on the

1043
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:54,140
show.

1044
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,640
Thank you very much for being here.

1045
00:32:55,820 --> 00:32:59,140
You are one who has actually publicly supported

1046
00:32:59,140 --> 00:33:01,780
the effort from David Hogg.

1047
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:06,640
You wrote on the platform X that you

1048
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,060
think that Hogg is doing incredible work supporting

1049
00:33:09,060 --> 00:33:11,540
frontline Democrats while giving new candidates a chance

1050
00:33:11,540 --> 00:33:12,880
to run in safe seats and you say

1051
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,500
Democrats should embrace a new generation of leadership

1052
00:33:15,500 --> 00:33:16,240
and competition.

1053
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,020
Why is this such a lonely place for

1054
00:33:19,020 --> 00:33:19,600
you to be?

1055
00:33:19,940 --> 00:33:21,240
Oh you rebel.

1056
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,640
Well look I think primaries are healthy competition

1057
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:25,540
is healthy.

1058
00:33:25,940 --> 00:33:29,220
I won my seat in a Democratic primary

1059
00:33:29,220 --> 00:33:32,160
many of our members of Congress have won

1060
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,640
in primaries and we need a new generation

1061
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:35,300
of leadership.

1062
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,540
Now I'm trying to reach a compromise with

1063
00:33:39,540 --> 00:33:41,760
the DNC and David Hogg and what I've

1064
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,660
said to David is he can have his

1065
00:33:44,660 --> 00:33:49,200
organization that is having primary challenges but he

1066
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,260
himself should not endorse in his personal capacity

1067
00:33:52,260 --> 00:33:54,480
while he's while he's vice chair and that

1068
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,880
seems to me something that can bring everyone

1069
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:57,300
together.

1070
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,840
This was such a mistake to bring this

1071
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:00,540
jamoke in.

1072
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,200
I have no idea how that happened.

1073
00:34:02,420 --> 00:34:03,920
He must have come with money.

1074
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:04,520
Who?

1075
00:34:05,900 --> 00:34:06,420
Hogg.

1076
00:34:06,420 --> 00:34:06,700
No.

1077
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,820
This was just purely craziness from the Democrat

1078
00:34:10,820 --> 00:34:11,260
Party?

1079
00:34:11,639 --> 00:34:13,139
I don't know that it was a bad

1080
00:34:13,139 --> 00:34:13,480
thing.

1081
00:34:16,429 --> 00:34:19,010
He comes in, Carville's the one who's really

1082
00:34:19,010 --> 00:34:20,770
jumping all over there's a good back-and

1083
00:34:20,770 --> 00:34:23,650
-forth with him and Carville and and and

1084
00:34:23,650 --> 00:34:26,710
Hogg Carville accused of me saying you you

1085
00:34:26,710 --> 00:34:28,210
know what the position you're in you're not

1086
00:34:28,210 --> 00:34:31,570
supposed to be supporting anybody and he's not

1087
00:34:31,570 --> 00:34:33,070
I don't I haven't heard anything he just

1088
00:34:33,070 --> 00:34:35,489
wants he just is theoretical he says he

1089
00:34:35,489 --> 00:34:37,610
should we should bring in new people and

1090
00:34:37,610 --> 00:34:38,790
have them run in the primaries.

1091
00:34:38,929 --> 00:34:40,770
He hasn't named names so I don't know

1092
00:34:40,770 --> 00:34:43,850
what Ro Khan is talking about or Carville

1093
00:34:43,850 --> 00:34:45,730
for that matter then Carville called him out

1094
00:34:45,730 --> 00:34:48,630
for getting paid and and it turns out

1095
00:34:48,630 --> 00:34:51,409
that that vice chair that he is is

1096
00:34:51,409 --> 00:34:53,730
a voluntary job he doesn't get paid anything

1097
00:34:53,730 --> 00:34:54,330
he says.

1098
00:34:54,690 --> 00:34:57,490
I'm thinking this is why I think I

1099
00:34:57,490 --> 00:35:00,810
have no you know without evidence that there's

1100
00:35:00,810 --> 00:35:03,470
money behind him this whole this kid's...

1101
00:35:03,470 --> 00:35:04,110
Well it's not his father.

1102
00:35:04,970 --> 00:35:06,270
No we know that.

1103
00:35:06,890 --> 00:35:09,150
So the other big story this was big

1104
00:35:09,150 --> 00:35:11,690
because I know what well maybe Soros money

1105
00:35:11,690 --> 00:35:14,270
it's possible that's such an old trope at

1106
00:35:14,270 --> 00:35:16,750
this point yeah I agree and Soros wouldn't

1107
00:35:16,750 --> 00:35:18,810
be trying to put new people in.

1108
00:35:19,090 --> 00:35:22,030
The Soros gambit is over it's got to

1109
00:35:22,030 --> 00:35:23,390
be new people it's got to be new

1110
00:35:23,390 --> 00:35:26,450
money Soros is dead you know what's Alex

1111
00:35:26,450 --> 00:35:28,870
is gallivanting around with Alex is no good

1112
00:35:28,870 --> 00:35:31,210
he's not he's not he's not the powerhouse

1113
00:35:31,210 --> 00:35:33,910
or no he's the old man was so

1114
00:35:33,910 --> 00:35:35,970
the other big story because I know people

1115
00:35:35,970 --> 00:35:38,550
in the region was the big blackout and

1116
00:35:38,550 --> 00:35:40,790
I have two boots on the ground which

1117
00:35:40,790 --> 00:35:44,090
will help dispel all of the rumors innuendo

1118
00:35:44,090 --> 00:35:45,330
and bullcrap.

1119
00:35:45,490 --> 00:35:48,170
The power is back on in Spain and

1120
00:35:48,170 --> 00:35:51,750
Portugal after one of Europe's biggest ever blackouts

1121
00:35:51,750 --> 00:35:54,530
but there are still no answers as to

1122
00:35:54,530 --> 00:35:57,550
what actually caused it or how they could

1123
00:35:57,550 --> 00:35:59,350
prevent it from happening again.

1124
00:35:59,950 --> 00:36:03,530
Our Iberian co-bureau chief Aislinn is looking

1125
00:36:03,530 --> 00:36:06,150
at this story Aislinn what do we actually

1126
00:36:06,150 --> 00:36:06,510
know?

1127
00:36:06,550 --> 00:36:10,290
It's extremely unclear still what caused the blackout

1128
00:36:10,290 --> 00:36:12,990
and there is something of a political blame

1129
00:36:12,990 --> 00:36:17,210
game initiating we are also seeing an intense

1130
00:36:17,210 --> 00:36:20,530
discussion about the merits of different power sources

1131
00:36:20,530 --> 00:36:25,030
Spain is and Portugal are big renewables producers

1132
00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:28,390
French ministers were saying yesterday well you know

1133
00:36:28,390 --> 00:36:30,590
if they used more nuclear power perhaps that

1134
00:36:30,590 --> 00:36:33,590
wouldn't have happened the Spanish Prime Minister has

1135
00:36:33,590 --> 00:36:36,370
firmly rejected that saying actually even nuclear power

1136
00:36:36,370 --> 00:36:38,230
couldn't help us get this restarted we were

1137
00:36:38,230 --> 00:36:41,690
relying on a lot of hydro the Spanish

1138
00:36:41,690 --> 00:36:45,710
power grid operator has said that this is

1139
00:36:45,710 --> 00:36:47,750
absolutely not a cyber attack from their point

1140
00:36:47,750 --> 00:36:49,210
of view they say there was a massive

1141
00:36:49,210 --> 00:36:52,150
drop-off in power supply what caused that

1142
00:36:52,150 --> 00:36:55,730
is becoming a key area of investigation it

1143
00:36:55,730 --> 00:36:58,930
is unclear and the Spanish Prime Minister Pedro

1144
00:36:58,930 --> 00:37:01,990
Sanchez is not ruling out a cyber attack

1145
00:37:01,990 --> 00:37:05,190
it's clear that it's very unclear and everyone's

1146
00:37:05,190 --> 00:37:07,350
dancing around and we have some answers but

1147
00:37:07,350 --> 00:37:10,030
first boots on the ground from Marbella Spain

1148
00:37:10,030 --> 00:37:13,050
where our producer is located Marbella is the

1149
00:37:13,050 --> 00:37:15,670
hoity-toity place of Spain to be if

1150
00:37:15,670 --> 00:37:18,270
you're near the harbor we've been told the

1151
00:37:18,270 --> 00:37:21,450
blackout here is weather or net zero based

1152
00:37:21,450 --> 00:37:23,410
after public radio telling us it was a

1153
00:37:23,410 --> 00:37:26,190
cyber attack while it was going on interestingly

1154
00:37:26,190 --> 00:37:28,670
the communications blackout here in Marbella was much

1155
00:37:28,670 --> 00:37:30,890
longer than the power outage we did not

1156
00:37:30,890 --> 00:37:33,210
have Wi-Fi or cell service for 18

1157
00:37:33,210 --> 00:37:35,150
hours while the power was only out for

1158
00:37:35,150 --> 00:37:38,030
seven hours and of course EU rules around

1159
00:37:38,030 --> 00:37:40,590
no gas stoves or barbecues on balconies meant

1160
00:37:40,590 --> 00:37:42,990
we had to borrow a neighbor's barbecue to

1161
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:46,010
heat water and milk for the kids because

1162
00:37:46,010 --> 00:37:47,770
of course you have to have electric stoves

1163
00:37:49,860 --> 00:37:51,740
this is one of our producers can't wait

1164
00:37:51,740 --> 00:37:53,500
to get out of the EU so we

1165
00:37:53,500 --> 00:37:55,600
continue with this Reuters report and in the

1166
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,800
absence of concrete answers what are the authorities

1167
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,080
doing to make sure there isn't a repeat

1168
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,120
of this well that is the big question

1169
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,320
is whether it can happen again we've heard

1170
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,400
energy analysts saying that this could indeed happen

1171
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,920
again this was you know one of the

1172
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,800
possibly the only big power cut in the

1173
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,660
era of green electricity certainly the largest that

1174
00:38:17,660 --> 00:38:21,120
anyone can remember there has been an ongoing

1175
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:24,400
debate about you know the viability of European

1176
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,380
grids whether they are having sufficient amounts of

1177
00:38:27,380 --> 00:38:30,440
investment in them particularly now that we are

1178
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,880
seeing these new sources of power come online

1179
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,440
some analysts suggesting that you know you're trying

1180
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,860
to operate a Ferrari on a country road

1181
00:38:38,860 --> 00:38:42,740
sometimes that will result in its own challenges

1182
00:38:42,740 --> 00:38:44,980
to the system whether that was the case

1183
00:38:44,980 --> 00:38:47,280
here whether there was a third parties involvement

1184
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,880
it still very much remains to be seen

1185
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,040
so now they're peddling the line well you're

1186
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,460
trying to operate a Ferrari on a country

1187
00:38:55,460 --> 00:38:57,260
road mean or the grid is just not

1188
00:38:57,260 --> 00:39:00,180
ready for our sophisticated renewables so I contacted

1189
00:39:00,180 --> 00:39:02,520
our dude that's a good bit it's a

1190
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,880
great bit our dude named Ben named Ben

1191
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,980
who is the protector of megawatts if you

1192
00:39:06,980 --> 00:39:10,080
recall this is his job he know and

1193
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,580
particularly cybersecurity zero cyber attack he said the

1194
00:39:14,580 --> 00:39:16,720
problem is Spain the reason why you're not

1195
00:39:16,720 --> 00:39:19,140
hearing the truth is that Spain has been

1196
00:39:19,140 --> 00:39:22,940
bragging about running on 100% renewables yeah

1197
00:39:22,940 --> 00:39:24,600
there's some clips that are of it I

1198
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,120
mean there's a lot of visual news clips

1199
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,320
that like to point this out and they

1200
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,600
form memes so the truth of it is

1201
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,780
at the time of the outage 77%

1202
00:39:37,780 --> 00:39:41,140
of generation was inverter based I love this

1203
00:39:41,140 --> 00:39:46,460
term I understand that immediately inverter based means

1204
00:39:46,460 --> 00:39:49,700
solar or winds because they generate direct current

1205
00:39:49,700 --> 00:39:53,060
and the inverter changes it into alternating current

1206
00:39:53,060 --> 00:39:55,480
yeah so I can go down to wires

1207
00:39:55,480 --> 00:40:00,420
and because this altered this these renewables do

1208
00:40:00,420 --> 00:40:05,960
not provide stable power they fluctuate due to

1209
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:10,340
I don't know wind changes and clouds I

1210
00:40:10,340 --> 00:40:13,780
can't watch the TV they they have a

1211
00:40:13,780 --> 00:40:18,980
baseload their baseload is 15 gigawatts of generation

1212
00:40:18,980 --> 00:40:23,100
from France so according to the dude named

1213
00:40:23,100 --> 00:40:26,220
Ben named Ben protector of megawatts a substation

1214
00:40:26,220 --> 00:40:29,640
in France suddenly stopped transmitting electricity now they

1215
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,180
they're not exactly sure why but they believe

1216
00:40:32,180 --> 00:40:35,280
that it was because of a fire at

1217
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:40,460
the substation so the Iberian Peninsula Spain and

1218
00:40:40,460 --> 00:40:45,580
subsequently Portugal suddenly lost 15 gigawatts of 15

1219
00:40:45,580 --> 00:40:49,100
megawatts of 15 gigawatts 15,000 megawatts of

1220
00:40:49,100 --> 00:40:51,580
generation from the French that they were on

1221
00:40:51,580 --> 00:40:53,920
a reliant on because they were way over

1222
00:40:53,920 --> 00:41:00,120
subscribed on these renewables 15,000 megawatts is

1223
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,040
a lot of generation to lose all at

1224
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,960
once for instance in Texas we don't get

1225
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,320
into an emergency situation until we go down

1226
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,560
to 3,000 megawatts of spinning reserve even

1227
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,420
on our best day for generation it would

1228
00:41:12,420 --> 00:41:14,860
be very difficult for our grid to survive

1229
00:41:14,860 --> 00:41:18,780
that bottom line emergency levels would be catastrophic

1230
00:41:18,780 --> 00:41:20,480
in Texas at 3,000 we have about

1231
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,920
40,000 40 million people here they lost

1232
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:29,040
15,000 so the whole the whole reason

1233
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,980
you're not hearing the truth is because of

1234
00:41:30,980 --> 00:41:33,940
the bragging that they were over 100%

1235
00:41:33,940 --> 00:41:38,580
renewable and they're not they were really reliant

1236
00:41:38,580 --> 00:41:41,720
on this probably nuclear generated power from France

1237
00:41:41,720 --> 00:41:44,540
that dropped out everything went to crap and

1238
00:41:44,540 --> 00:41:48,060
this is the risk of this this insane

1239
00:41:48,060 --> 00:41:53,000
policy of relying on 100% renewables getting

1240
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,720
to net zero it is insane and and

1241
00:41:55,720 --> 00:41:57,640
no one's gonna want to admit this so

1242
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,300
I mean we've heard things such as oh

1243
00:42:00,300 --> 00:42:04,200
it was atmospheric fluctuation a rare atmospheric event

1244
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,500
is so bogus USA Today even had this

1245
00:42:07,500 --> 00:42:10,080
preliminary reports out of Europe at the massive

1246
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:12,920
blackout the cause may be something called induced

1247
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:21,420
atmospheric vibration phenomenon where weather changes affect power

1248
00:42:21,420 --> 00:42:24,660
lines this is a lie and this is

1249
00:42:24,660 --> 00:42:27,500
just the beginning of this nonsense the more

1250
00:42:27,500 --> 00:42:30,800
they rely on renewables and in this case

1251
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,160
external interconnect from another country which is a

1252
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:38,820
huge security risk for your country we're relying

1253
00:42:38,820 --> 00:42:41,100
upon France if France drops the base load

1254
00:42:41,100 --> 00:42:45,800
for us boom we're done so this it

1255
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,320
doesn't work it's not a good idea nuclear

1256
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,160
is is not inverter base it's AC it's

1257
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:53,920
renewable that's what they should be going to

1258
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,540
but no instead it's all of this solar

1259
00:42:56,540 --> 00:42:58,820
and wind and they're going to keep lying

1260
00:42:58,820 --> 00:43:00,440
and I'm sure they'll have a task force

1261
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:04,080
and nothing will ever come of it it

1262
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,360
brings me to my two climate clips boom

1263
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:11,280
shakalaka I don't know if I have anything

1264
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,660
on that particular situation which I thought I

1265
00:43:13,660 --> 00:43:16,440
know I heard a lot of stuff and

1266
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:21,680
very familiar with the phony baloney crazy comment

1267
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,980
about the weather causing the whole thing climate

1268
00:43:24,980 --> 00:43:28,340
by his the climate hysteria debate is there

1269
00:43:28,340 --> 00:43:31,980
hysteria in the international climate debate Britain's former

1270
00:43:31,980 --> 00:43:34,720
Prime Minister Tony Blair suggests there is as

1271
00:43:34,720 --> 00:43:36,680
he calls for a new approach it comes

1272
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,880
after Spain and Portugal were recently hit by

1273
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,940
cascading blackouts which some say were made worse

1274
00:43:41,940 --> 00:43:44,960
by an over reliance on solar power entities

1275
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,860
international correspondent Malcolm Hudson has more for us

1276
00:43:47,860 --> 00:43:51,200
from London in a new policy paper former

1277
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,800
British Prime Minister Tony Blair said hysteria should

1278
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,200
be taken out of the international climate debates

1279
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,900
saying that voters feel they are being made

1280
00:43:58,900 --> 00:44:02,360
to make financial sacrifices and changes their lifestyle

1281
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,880
in what Blair referred to as doomed policy

1282
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,880
despite the fact that in developed nations these

1283
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,200
changes will lead to a minimal impact to

1284
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:14,080
global carbon emissions Blair said that by 2030

1285
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,080
almost two-thirds of global emissions will come

1286
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,140
from China India and Southeast Asia and said

1287
00:44:20,140 --> 00:44:22,840
that means any strategy based on phasing out

1288
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,320
fossil fuels in the short term is doomed

1289
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,940
to fail but while he appeared to hit

1290
00:44:27,940 --> 00:44:31,000
out against net zero carbon emission policies Blair

1291
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,300
went on to clarify that Prime Minister Keir

1292
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:35,800
Starmer's approach to net zero is the right

1293
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,540
one supporting the government's plan for net zero

1294
00:44:38,540 --> 00:44:42,380
by 2050 Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner responded

1295
00:44:42,380 --> 00:44:45,760
Tony's clarified his comments and he welcomes our

1296
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,700
direction of travel and that's on renewables investing

1297
00:44:48,700 --> 00:44:50,640
in renewables and nuclear as part of the

1298
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,860
mix but we can't rely on fossil fuels

1299
00:44:52,860 --> 00:44:56,020
forever the British government rejected Blair's claim of

1300
00:44:56,020 --> 00:45:01,560
hysteria in the climate debate debate yes okay

1301
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:05,980
yeah this is interesting how these things are

1302
00:45:05,980 --> 00:45:09,880
starting to fall apart it's what is the

1303
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,240
what is the inverse of operating a Ferrari

1304
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:15,920
on a country road is it a lot

1305
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,340
that no no one knows what a lot

1306
00:45:17,340 --> 00:45:20,300
that what is what is an Edsel operating

1307
00:45:20,300 --> 00:45:23,860
an Edsel no no no a pedal bike

1308
00:45:23,860 --> 00:45:26,860
on a pedal bike on the Autobahn no

1309
00:45:26,860 --> 00:45:29,160
pedal bike on the Autobahn pedal bike on

1310
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:30,840
the Autobahn there you go that's what it

1311
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,800
is pedal bike I like it a pedal

1312
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:37,120
bike on the Autobahn nice okay it's part

1313
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,400
two now Republicans passed all of these changes

1314
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,620
out of committee yesterday and the goal is

1315
00:45:41,620 --> 00:45:43,340
to make them part of that broader reconciliation

1316
00:45:43,340 --> 00:45:45,280
bill that big budget bill that we've heard

1317
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,020
so much about with the goal to pass

1318
00:45:47,020 --> 00:45:48,880
all of this by the summer what reporting

1319
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,500
what is she saying what is this I

1320
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:54,760
don't is this another miss clip yeah to

1321
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,280
play what I think I think you meant

1322
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:58,700
to start it here hold on a second

1323
00:45:58,700 --> 00:46:01,360
I see what's going on but Ben Pyle

1324
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,100
co-founder of climate debate UK says there

1325
00:46:04,100 --> 00:46:06,800
is a lot of hysteria driving climate policy

1326
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:08,700
and this sort of tendency of a lot

1327
00:46:08,700 --> 00:46:11,500
of people within the global green movement to

1328
00:46:11,500 --> 00:46:13,500
sort of talk about deadlines you know 10

1329
00:46:13,500 --> 00:46:15,000
years left to save the planet and so

1330
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,180
on and so forth many people have made

1331
00:46:17,180 --> 00:46:19,820
the 10 years claim over the decades including

1332
00:46:19,820 --> 00:46:23,440
former US vice-president Al Gore in 2006

1333
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,600
Blair said that most political leaders know that

1334
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,320
the debate has become irrational but are terrified

1335
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,180
of saying so for fear of being called

1336
00:46:31,180 --> 00:46:34,960
climate deniers a British government spokesperson said that

1337
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:36,900
they remain focused on their mission for the

1338
00:46:36,900 --> 00:46:39,860
UK to be a clean energy superpower while

1339
00:46:39,860 --> 00:46:43,720
treading lightly on people's lives Pyle disputed this

1340
00:46:43,720 --> 00:46:45,640
and said it will be expensive over the

1341
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:49,340
next five years the clean power by 2030

1342
00:46:49,340 --> 00:46:53,220
agenda is going to lock Britain into extremely

1343
00:46:53,220 --> 00:46:59,040
expensive renewable energy subsidy schemes over reliance on

1344
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:02,000
renewable energy has drawn criticism in recent days

1345
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,480
following the huge blackouts throughout Spain and Portugal

1346
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:09,220
energy expert Catherine Porter said the initial fault

1347
00:47:09,220 --> 00:47:11,680
in Spain's power grid was made worse by

1348
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,540
an over reliance on solar power which led

1349
00:47:14,540 --> 00:47:17,260
to cascading blackouts that lasted for over eight

1350
00:47:17,260 --> 00:47:21,820
hours in the Iberian Peninsula so this is

1351
00:47:21,820 --> 00:47:24,260
actually this folds right into a classic clip

1352
00:47:24,260 --> 00:47:29,100
I have when he was still the the

1353
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:31,620
chief of the the Bank of England the

1354
00:47:31,620 --> 00:47:35,160
Central Bank of the United Kingdom the new

1355
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:39,180
Prime Minister of Canada listened to what he

1356
00:47:39,180 --> 00:47:41,060
was saying then and what he probably still

1357
00:47:41,060 --> 00:47:43,940
thinks today the world's coming to Glasgow let's

1358
00:47:43,940 --> 00:47:49,460
reshape finance for sustainable you demanded action and

1359
00:47:49,460 --> 00:47:51,680
now it's time for the financial sector to

1360
00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:55,500
deliver to reach net zero every country every

1361
00:47:55,500 --> 00:47:59,120
company every bank every investor every pension fund

1362
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,540
around the world will need to make some

1363
00:48:01,540 --> 00:48:03,900
big changes in the run-up to COP

1364
00:48:03,900 --> 00:48:06,940
26 in Glasgow we have an enormous opportunity

1365
00:48:06,940 --> 00:48:08,840
to bring climate change into the heart of

1366
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,780
every financial decision and our plan will manage

1367
00:48:11,780 --> 00:48:14,300
the risk from climate change while helping to

1368
00:48:14,300 --> 00:48:17,700
seize the opportunities from a newer greener economy

1369
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:20,880
the UK has been at the forefront of

1370
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,380
innovation for centuries brimming with ingenuity and a

1371
00:48:23,380 --> 00:48:26,280
can do spirit it also houses the world's

1372
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,800
largest financial system and by bringing them together

1373
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,840
we can deliver the net zero world that

1374
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,080
you've demanded and that our future generations deserve

1375
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,040
you demanded it you demanded it you want

1376
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,200
the nobody demanded it no you demanded it

1377
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,760
you wanted the net zero world that's what's

1378
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:48,060
gonna happen to Canada Canada you're next how

1379
00:48:48,060 --> 00:48:50,460
are your renewables doing it's gonna be great

1380
00:48:50,460 --> 00:48:53,060
it's gonna be great might as well get

1381
00:48:53,060 --> 00:48:55,220
into this after a long night and not

1382
00:48:55,220 --> 00:48:57,760
much sleep Prime Minister Mark Carney arrived at

1383
00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,860
his office this morning getting down to work

1384
00:48:59,860 --> 00:49:02,660
after laying out his vision to supporters last

1385
00:49:02,660 --> 00:49:05,500
night in Ottawa as we come here after

1386
00:49:05,500 --> 00:49:10,340
this consequential most consequential election let's put an

1387
00:49:10,340 --> 00:49:13,020
end let's put an end to the division

1388
00:49:13,020 --> 00:49:16,320
and anger of the past Carney says he'll

1389
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,480
work with all parties and as the final

1390
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,780
votes are counted it's clear he'll have to

1391
00:49:20,780 --> 00:49:23,100
the Liberals have come up just shy of

1392
00:49:23,100 --> 00:49:25,180
a majority they'll need to rely on the

1393
00:49:25,180 --> 00:49:27,760
handful of new Democrats who survived their party's

1394
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,040
implosion the bloc québécois or even the Conservatives

1395
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,940
to enact their agenda the latest count shows

1396
00:49:33,940 --> 00:49:37,160
Carney's Liberals and Pierre Poliev's Conservatives taking roughly

1397
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,360
85% of all votes cast with a

1398
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:43,060
less than 3% margin between them the

1399
00:49:43,060 --> 00:49:45,200
Conservatives say they're willing to work with the

1400
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,600
Liberals on the biggest issue facing the country

1401
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,200
its relationship with the US with Carney today

1402
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,100
making another move on that file the Prime

1403
00:49:54,100 --> 00:49:57,180
Minister's office says Carney spoke with US President

1404
00:49:57,180 --> 00:50:00,560
Donald Trump that Trump congratulated Carney on his

1405
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,740
win and that the two leaders agreed on

1406
00:50:02,740 --> 00:50:05,080
the importance of Canada and the US working

1407
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,740
together as independent sovereign nations and agreed to

1408
00:50:08,740 --> 00:50:11,040
meet in person in the near future and

1409
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:12,680
I think I think it was you who

1410
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:15,600
said you know Trump wanted this to happen

1411
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,100
he wanted Carney he implied that he did

1412
00:50:19,100 --> 00:50:22,380
here's here's some proof highlighting his phone call

1413
00:50:22,380 --> 00:50:25,620
yesterday with freshly elected Prime Minister Mark Carney

1414
00:50:25,620 --> 00:50:30,060
and hinting that on trade issues Trump seems

1415
00:50:30,060 --> 00:50:37,660
to see positive progress coming deal-making now

1416
00:50:37,660 --> 00:50:40,340
set to at least begin suggested Trump's pretty

1417
00:50:40,340 --> 00:50:43,920
almost immediately he's a very nice gentleman and

1418
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,580
we he's going to come to the White

1419
00:50:46,580 --> 00:50:49,740
House very shortly within the next week or

1420
00:50:49,740 --> 00:50:51,820
less Trump even weighed in on the election

1421
00:50:51,820 --> 00:50:54,680
itself when a reporter pointed out Carney won

1422
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:58,040
in no small way by targeting Trump and

1423
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,000
his trade policies here's Trump on that and

1424
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,120
on opposition leader Pierre Poliev they both hated

1425
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,660
Trump and it was the one that hated

1426
00:51:06,660 --> 00:51:09,740
Trump I think the least that one I

1427
00:51:09,740 --> 00:51:12,060
actually think the conservative hated me much more

1428
00:51:12,060 --> 00:51:14,540
than the than the so-called liberal he's

1429
00:51:14,540 --> 00:51:16,780
pretty liberal guy but no I spoke to

1430
00:51:16,780 --> 00:51:19,360
him yesterday couldn't have been nicer and I

1431
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,620
congratulated him separately Trump noted not long ago

1432
00:51:22,620 --> 00:51:24,640
that he's if if President Trump is saying

1433
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:26,340
you're a great guy you're a nice guy

1434
00:51:26,340 --> 00:51:28,320
this is the time you start watching your

1435
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,680
back something's coming for you and I congratulated

1436
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,240
him separately Trump noted not long ago that

1437
00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:37,200
he's already made some 200 trade deals since

1438
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,380
he imposed his tariffs earlier this year though

1439
00:51:39,380 --> 00:51:42,700
none has been officially announced or made public

1440
00:51:42,700 --> 00:51:46,720
today while slamming another country he's hit hard

1441
00:51:46,720 --> 00:51:50,620
with tariffs China the leading candidate for the

1442
00:51:50,620 --> 00:51:56,540
chief ripper offer Trump also suggested again maybe

1443
00:51:56,540 --> 00:51:59,440
something's in the works there as well I

1444
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,340
hope we're gonna make a deal with China

1445
00:52:01,340 --> 00:52:03,020
we're talking to China where any of it

1446
00:52:03,020 --> 00:52:05,060
goes from here is as ever known only

1447
00:52:05,060 --> 00:52:07,640
to Trump though for Canada a better sense

1448
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:09,540
of things may well come soon with as

1449
00:52:09,540 --> 00:52:12,000
Trump now expects that sit down in the

1450
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,600
Oval Office with he and Mark Carney very

1451
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:19,000
shortly then according to NPR Trump really did

1452
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,360
get him elected Mark Carney has been elected

1453
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,120
as Prime Minister of Canada according to the

1454
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:26,640
projections from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation this was

1455
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,880
seen as a referendum on which candidate could

1456
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,720
best handle the United States under President Trump

1457
00:52:31,720 --> 00:52:34,940
who placed tariffs on Canada and sparked a

1458
00:52:34,940 --> 00:52:39,300
wave of Canadian nationalism Carney defeated Conservative Party

1459
00:52:39,300 --> 00:52:43,240
leader Pierre Palliative Palliative's momentum began to slip

1460
00:52:43,240 --> 00:52:45,860
when former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigned earlier

1461
00:52:45,860 --> 00:52:47,520
this year which gave the Liberals a lift

1462
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,940
but the real boost came when President Trump

1463
00:52:49,940 --> 00:52:53,600
began targeting Canada's economy and its sovereignty many

1464
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,300
Canadians were outraged by Trump's threat to make

1465
00:52:56,300 --> 00:53:00,260
Canada the 51st state it all becomes clear

1466
00:53:00,260 --> 00:53:04,380
yeah I thought that I think Palliative was

1467
00:53:04,380 --> 00:53:06,180
too much like Trump and he would have

1468
00:53:06,180 --> 00:53:08,160
probably butted heads with him he didn't like

1469
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,740
him I have a very strange clip mm

1470
00:53:10,740 --> 00:53:14,580
-hmm that explains Trump's behavior in general mm

1471
00:53:14,580 --> 00:53:17,540
-hmm and this is the woman Corcoran I

1472
00:53:17,540 --> 00:53:20,540
think her name she is on the shark

1473
00:53:20,540 --> 00:53:23,200
tank she's the female girl there and she

1474
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:26,220
female girl and she she's the one as

1475
00:53:26,220 --> 00:53:29,540
opposed to the male girl you can't be

1476
00:53:29,540 --> 00:53:30,840
too sure you got it you got to

1477
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,140
be very clear the female girl yes the

1478
00:53:33,140 --> 00:53:36,320
female girl she she had an observation that

1479
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,920
I think is something we should always keep

1480
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:39,620
in the back of our minds about Trump

1481
00:53:39,620 --> 00:53:42,900
and after I heard this I also thought

1482
00:53:42,900 --> 00:53:44,680
that oh this is what would happen with

1483
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,300
Bill Maher to listen to this sorry Donald

1484
00:53:48,300 --> 00:53:50,140
Trump getting the heck of a compliment from

1485
00:53:50,140 --> 00:53:52,660
one of the key stars of Shark Tank

1486
00:53:52,660 --> 00:53:55,380
Barbara Corcoran so I did a lot of

1487
00:53:55,380 --> 00:53:57,240
work with Donald and I can tell you

1488
00:53:57,240 --> 00:53:59,100
he is the best salesman I've ever met

1489
00:53:59,100 --> 00:54:00,560
my she's the blonde who does a lot

1490
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,860
of fast-moving consumer she just smaller deals

1491
00:54:02,860 --> 00:54:05,280
but successful deals she's the QVC lady that's

1492
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,420
what she is QVC girl yeah I I

1493
00:54:07,420 --> 00:54:10,320
watched him walk into a situation I for

1494
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,400
example selling the Plaza Hotel to the Chinese

1495
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,780
out of Hong Kong it was in Taiwan

1496
00:54:15,780 --> 00:54:19,080
group of Asians wealthiest families in Hong Kong

1497
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,760
and they were there because they were interested

1498
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,720
in the Plaza Hotel and I was a

1499
00:54:23,720 --> 00:54:25,480
broker or my brokers were all at the

1500
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,440
table we're like really hungry to make this

1501
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,320
deal and I watched him totally not pitch

1502
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,100
the Plaza Hotel bury it and talk about

1503
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:36,780
the landmasses on the Hudson River and the

1504
00:54:36,780 --> 00:54:39,260
buildings that would be there they were not

1505
00:54:39,260 --> 00:54:41,200
the least bit interested they just wanted to

1506
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:43,620
buy the Plaza Hotel like a customer I

1507
00:54:43,620 --> 00:54:45,100
want to buy it and Donald was near

1508
00:54:45,100 --> 00:54:47,380
bankruptcy really needed the money to bail out

1509
00:54:47,380 --> 00:54:50,460
and I watched him I thought he was

1510
00:54:50,460 --> 00:54:53,960
so off he wasn't they bought the land

1511
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:55,480
and built all those towers on the West

1512
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:57,040
River as we know it today you know

1513
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:58,720
all those Trump towers along the river that

1514
00:54:58,720 --> 00:55:00,500
was the deal how did he do that

1515
00:55:00,500 --> 00:55:03,920
I'll tell you what his masterful mind does

1516
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:08,720
he is a genius at picking out the

1517
00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:12,540
vulnerability of someone's personality he can smell it

1518
00:55:12,540 --> 00:55:16,340
sense it and trust it okay so for

1519
00:55:16,340 --> 00:55:18,140
example if you were to walk into a

1520
00:55:18,140 --> 00:55:20,140
business meeting with Donald and you're saying whatever

1521
00:55:20,140 --> 00:55:22,260
you're saying I've seen it time and time

1522
00:55:22,260 --> 00:55:25,060
again he could see what your weakness is

1523
00:55:25,060 --> 00:55:27,960
and not physically reach over and put his

1524
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,680
finger on it but he just could see

1525
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,640
what your weakness is and play into it

1526
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,100
not the nicest thing in the world but

1527
00:55:35,100 --> 00:55:36,800
it's a certain gift I've never seen anyone

1528
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:38,740
else and it comes in handy in light

1529
00:55:38,740 --> 00:55:39,960
of what we're doing right now with China

1530
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:42,620
yeah no she's the older lady not the

1531
00:55:42,620 --> 00:55:44,200
young and the young the young blonde is

1532
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,340
the QVC yeah yeah I saw this clip

1533
00:55:46,340 --> 00:55:48,800
and I thought that makes total sense and

1534
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:50,420
that's what he's been doing with everything and

1535
00:55:50,420 --> 00:55:54,180
I think I think this may have in

1536
00:55:54,180 --> 00:55:57,140
some degree you know since we're talking about

1537
00:55:57,140 --> 00:55:59,640
rare earths and about the processing so I've

1538
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,840
been receiving nothing but tons of information about

1539
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:07,200
rare earth processing Saskatchewan has had a rare

1540
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:12,300
earth processing facility since 2020 so they do

1541
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:17,760
a lot of this more I mean I

1542
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:21,240
have a ton of different places where this

1543
00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:23,660
is happening but this kind of folds into

1544
00:56:23,660 --> 00:56:27,020
the new deal the last time Ukraine was

1545
00:56:27,020 --> 00:56:28,780
about to sign a minerals deal with the

1546
00:56:28,780 --> 00:56:30,980
u.s. it was derailed by a row

1547
00:56:30,980 --> 00:56:34,180
in the Oval Office around on relations are

1548
00:56:34,180 --> 00:56:36,860
slightly warmer and just before we recorded this

1549
00:56:36,860 --> 00:56:40,180
podcast they finally reached an agreement the deal

1550
00:56:40,180 --> 00:56:42,840
creates an investment fund for the reconstruction of

1551
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,260
Ukraine in exchange for access to the country's

1552
00:56:45,260 --> 00:56:48,040
minerals oil and gas it will still need

1553
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,340
to be approved by Parliament in Ukraine but

1554
00:56:50,340 --> 00:56:53,800
the Ukrainian MP Maria met sensei were welcomed

1555
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,980
what she said were the improved terms of

1556
00:56:55,980 --> 00:56:59,680
the agreement it's quite a good investment opportunity

1557
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,220
and a fair deal in the end where

1558
00:57:02,220 --> 00:57:06,680
no sort of deaths on military aid are

1559
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,780
mentioned everything is done in a manner due

1560
00:57:09,780 --> 00:57:14,360
to Ukrainian Constitution and doesn't breach any oversight

1561
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,720
of our EU aspirations so I thought CBS

1562
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:20,420
actually had a that was BBC CBS had

1563
00:57:20,420 --> 00:57:23,960
a better report because this is exactly the

1564
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,160
kind of deal that President Trump was talking

1565
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,960
about give us your minerals we'll protect you

1566
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:32,140
we'll protect our our own assets and maybe

1567
00:57:32,140 --> 00:57:33,720
we'll put together a little fund for you

1568
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:35,660
a little hedge fund turn now to news

1569
00:57:35,660 --> 00:57:37,820
that has big implications for the war in

1570
00:57:37,820 --> 00:57:40,120
Ukraine the u.s. and Ukraine have signed

1571
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,340
a long-awaited deal giving the u.s.

1572
00:57:42,380 --> 00:57:46,000
access to important rare-earth minerals Ukraine hopes

1573
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,100
in return to get greater protection from Russian

1574
00:57:49,100 --> 00:57:52,520
aggression Ramey innocentia has more on all this

1575
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:55,000
Ramey joins us now Ramey good morning Tony

1576
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,140
yes good morning there and breakthrough here while

1577
00:57:57,140 --> 00:58:00,140
this deal does not explicitly say that the

1578
00:58:00,140 --> 00:58:02,380
u.s. will keep on helping Ukraine defend

1579
00:58:02,380 --> 00:58:05,580
against Russia's invasion like under the Biden administration

1580
00:58:05,580 --> 00:58:08,760
that is the hope u.s. Treasury Secretary

1581
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,940
Scott Besson who signed this pact with Ukraine's

1582
00:58:11,940 --> 00:58:14,180
deputy prime minister in Washington said that it

1583
00:58:14,180 --> 00:58:16,940
signals to Russia that the Trump administration is

1584
00:58:16,940 --> 00:58:19,900
committed to a peace process for what he

1585
00:58:19,900 --> 00:58:22,240
says is a free Ukraine and over the

1586
00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,620
long term details about this deal though are

1587
00:58:24,620 --> 00:58:26,380
slim but it centers on u.s. access

1588
00:58:26,380 --> 00:58:29,640
to Ukraine's vast resources under its soil that

1589
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:31,840
includes oil and gas but along with critical

1590
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,680
raw materials that's like graphite titanium and uranium

1591
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,520
for aerospace and technology funds from this deal

1592
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:40,480
would go towards paying the u.s. for

1593
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:44,340
future military aid and to establish a joint

1594
00:58:44,340 --> 00:58:47,280
fund for the reconstruction of Ukraine and you

1595
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:48,620
know there has been a lot of drama

1596
00:58:48,620 --> 00:58:50,980
around this deal we all sides were closed

1597
00:58:50,980 --> 00:58:53,460
back in February when Zelensky went to Washington

1598
00:58:53,460 --> 00:58:55,540
to sign an earlier version but then we

1599
00:58:55,540 --> 00:58:59,760
saw that spectacular meltdown broadcast around the world

1600
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,400
then last week Trump and Zelensky met at

1601
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,000
St. Peter's Basilica look at that a decidedly

1602
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,800
more peaceful there for the funeral of the

1603
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,660
Pope and now we have this breakthrough but

1604
00:59:09,660 --> 00:59:13,100
importantly Russia has not commented yet so let's

1605
00:59:13,100 --> 00:59:16,660
talk about the Ukrainian rare earths well let's

1606
00:59:16,660 --> 00:59:19,020
play the NTD clip of this so we

1607
00:59:19,020 --> 00:59:21,100
can get that out of the way okay

1608
00:59:21,100 --> 00:59:24,200
Ukraine yep gotcha a Ukrainian official is in

1609
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:26,840
Washington today the US and Ukraine just signed

1610
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:29,120
a deal on rare earth minerals here's more

1611
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:33,500
Ukraine's first deputy prime minister Yulia Sviridenko is

1612
00:59:33,500 --> 00:59:36,120
traveling to the United States on Wednesday to

1613
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:38,840
sign a minerals deal the two sides were

1614
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,380
reportedly set to close the deal on Wednesday

1615
00:59:41,380 --> 00:59:45,560
afternoon until Ukraine requested some last-minute changes

1616
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,620
President Trump wants to use Ukraine's minerals as

1617
00:59:48,620 --> 00:59:51,540
a financial guarantee for the aid the US

1618
00:59:51,540 --> 00:59:54,480
has been sending to Ukraine I didn't want

1619
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,480
to make a complicated deal I didn't want

1620
00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:57,820
to make a deal that couldn't be made

1621
00:59:57,820 --> 01:00:01,000
because Ukraine doesn't have very much money and

1622
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,640
yet they're going through a very bad period

1623
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,640
of time it's been brutal but Ukraine's prime

1624
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,200
minister says the agreement won't include the money

1625
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:11,900
the US has sent so far only future

1626
01:00:11,900 --> 01:00:14,960
aid so I think this is still about

1627
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,540
weapon sales to the EU they'll be buying

1628
01:00:17,540 --> 01:00:21,140
it I believe because this these rare earths

1629
01:00:21,140 --> 01:00:26,380
in in Ukraine according to Reuters they don't

1630
01:00:26,380 --> 01:00:31,260
really have an operational mine they don't really

1631
01:00:31,260 --> 01:00:34,660
have rare earths exactly they have no mining

1632
01:00:34,660 --> 01:00:37,980
roads no rail no energy grids no processing

1633
01:00:37,980 --> 01:00:41,480
capacity that's your big big thing of course

1634
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:43,500
it's all a chaos and you know they

1635
01:00:43,500 --> 01:00:47,820
geological data is hardly available that it seems

1636
01:00:47,820 --> 01:00:50,340
like a bit of a mirage that but

1637
01:00:50,340 --> 01:00:54,680
the rare earths business that Rubio was doing

1638
01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:57,820
in Rwanda boots on the ground Adam I

1639
01:00:57,820 --> 01:00:59,520
worked in the mining industry for eight years

1640
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:02,480
lived in Africa for 15 mostly in DRC

1641
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:06,140
and Kenya the answer to the question is

1642
01:01:06,140 --> 01:01:08,540
Africa has to make peace between a DRC

1643
01:01:08,540 --> 01:01:12,420
and its neighbors Rwanda is already doing unofficial

1644
01:01:12,420 --> 01:01:15,420
processing of rare earth minerals from the DRC

1645
01:01:15,420 --> 01:01:21,280
so there is processing and even crazier they're

1646
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,220
gonna be processing right up in California at

1647
01:01:24,220 --> 01:01:27,000
Mountain Pass America led this industry for decades

1648
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,060
with this site right here at Mountain Pass

1649
01:01:29,060 --> 01:01:31,780
but due to cost of capital subsidies overseas

1650
01:01:31,780 --> 01:01:34,500
in China as well as different environmental standards

1651
01:01:34,500 --> 01:01:36,860
we lost our leadership and this site fell

1652
01:01:36,860 --> 01:01:40,840
into essentially disrepair and bankruptcy MP materials has

1653
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:44,620
humble beginnings we acquired this site in 2017

1654
01:01:44,620 --> 01:01:47,180
it had eight employees it was in care

1655
01:01:47,180 --> 01:01:50,360
maintenance nobody believed that we could compete against

1656
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:53,540
China but we focused on execution and we

1657
01:01:53,540 --> 01:01:57,340
slowly methodically over time rebuilt this we have

1658
01:01:57,340 --> 01:02:00,180
nearly 300 Americans probably working on this site

1659
01:02:00,180 --> 01:02:04,400
when we acquired this site we clearly realized

1660
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:07,140
that multi-billion dollar supply chains don't move

1661
01:02:07,140 --> 01:02:08,680
overnight we had to have a long-term

1662
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,740
plan to restore this site successfully and sustainably

1663
01:02:11,740 --> 01:02:16,020
our first stage which is largely complete was

1664
01:02:16,020 --> 01:02:19,180
to relaunch the operations here we now produce

1665
01:02:19,180 --> 01:02:21,820
a rare earth concentrate product that represents 15

1666
01:02:21,820 --> 01:02:24,980
% of the global supply we are profitable

1667
01:02:24,980 --> 01:02:27,920
doing so our next stage which is underway

1668
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,180
is to make separated rare earth products and

1669
01:02:30,180 --> 01:02:32,760
optimize it to be a leader in global

1670
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:37,160
industry from a cost and sustainability perspective one

1671
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:39,300
stage two is done we expect to generate

1672
01:02:39,300 --> 01:02:41,280
a significant amount of free cash flow that

1673
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,080
will enable us to not just making separate

1674
01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,620
rare earth products but also magnets so we

1675
01:02:46,620 --> 01:02:49,560
can fulfill our mission of restoring the full

1676
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,720
rare supply chain to the United States of

1677
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,620
America so that's in California but what's the

1678
01:02:54,620 --> 01:02:57,020
name of this operation I've heard this Mountain

1679
01:02:57,020 --> 01:03:02,080
Pass materials and there's three more from USA

1680
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,820
rare earth who have processing plants now in

1681
01:03:04,820 --> 01:03:08,380
Stillwater Oklahoma Shira Blanca Texas and Wheat Ridge

1682
01:03:08,380 --> 01:03:10,500
Colorado we are getting into the rare earth

1683
01:03:10,500 --> 01:03:14,880
business and it seems that most of them

1684
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:18,460
are focused on magnets which would I don't

1685
01:03:18,460 --> 01:03:20,180
know if that's gonna be the future of

1686
01:03:20,180 --> 01:03:23,060
rare earths but that's what they most of

1687
01:03:23,060 --> 01:03:27,200
them seem to be doing so between Canada

1688
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,820
these four states in America I think we're

1689
01:03:29,820 --> 01:03:32,900
getting back into the business we're and maybe

1690
01:03:32,900 --> 01:03:35,360
maybe so maybe we can chunk something out

1691
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:39,180
of Ukraine if you know if it's really

1692
01:03:39,180 --> 01:03:43,760
even there maybe actually after their oil more

1693
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,380
more than likely I would take that over

1694
01:03:46,380 --> 01:03:51,460
the rare earths any day so things are

1695
01:03:51,460 --> 01:03:54,000
moving and if they get the peace deal

1696
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,600
they we can get the rare earths if

1697
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,240
you want them from Russia Russia already off

1698
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:00,000
I know we can get it easy but

1699
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,500
we're gonna be doing processing and we have

1700
01:04:02,500 --> 01:04:04,460
and we're gonna make Canada you do it

1701
01:04:04,460 --> 01:04:06,780
Canada yeah you want to be net zero

1702
01:04:06,780 --> 01:04:10,720
here take this nasty stuff do it do

1703
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:16,480
it do it do it while we're kind

1704
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:21,500
of on this and and climate etc oh

1705
01:04:21,500 --> 01:04:26,060
it's the neo diminium rare earth that is

1706
01:04:26,060 --> 01:04:28,360
that that's the that's the big attraction that

1707
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,620
that's for those ridiculous magnets yeah is that

1708
01:04:31,620 --> 01:04:33,220
is that of any real use the magnet

1709
01:04:33,220 --> 01:04:35,180
I mean it's obviously yeah that's motor very

1710
01:04:35,180 --> 01:04:37,280
yeah that's a yeah for all kinds of

1711
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:41,480
stuff yeah it's extremely powerful magnet well we

1712
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:43,000
need some kind of thing where you put

1713
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,660
two of them together you can't get them

1714
01:04:44,660 --> 01:04:47,820
apart your finger gets gets crushed you're done

1715
01:04:47,820 --> 01:04:52,740
so this is so this is a story

1716
01:04:52,740 --> 01:04:54,600
that's been brewing it's been very hard to

1717
01:04:54,600 --> 01:05:01,480
get your fingers done it's been very hard

1718
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,220
to get a clip and this is not

1719
01:05:03,220 --> 01:05:05,260
the one I wanted particularly because it comes

1720
01:05:05,260 --> 01:05:07,960
from OG what Africa news let me see

1721
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:12,420
is it from yes Africa news yeah here

1722
01:05:12,420 --> 01:05:15,720
goes the show but it's about chemtrails or

1723
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:20,220
as we call it aerosol injection and there's

1724
01:05:20,220 --> 01:05:21,660
a lot of people in the UK are

1725
01:05:21,660 --> 01:05:23,860
very concerned about this because they're talking about

1726
01:05:23,860 --> 01:05:25,840
it this is just a short clip about

1727
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:27,600
what it is we all know what it

1728
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:29,640
is but it's even interesting that one of

1729
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:33,180
the scientists in this clip describes exactly what

1730
01:05:33,180 --> 01:05:35,620
has been happening to our climate and I

1731
01:05:35,620 --> 01:05:39,360
think it is due to aerosol injection or

1732
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:42,820
chemtrails the approach would walk by planes releasing

1733
01:05:42,820 --> 01:05:46,480
tiny particles into the atmosphere's dry stable upper

1734
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:50,080
layer called the stratosphere this would help reduce

1735
01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:52,740
the amount of sunlight reaching the earth's surface

1736
01:05:52,740 --> 01:05:55,680
and helping to cool the planet so our

1737
01:05:55,680 --> 01:06:00,100
study examines a climate intervention technique called stratospheric

1738
01:06:00,100 --> 01:06:02,980
aerosol injection which is an idea to cool

1739
01:06:02,980 --> 01:06:05,060
down the planet by adding a layer of

1740
01:06:05,060 --> 01:06:08,980
small reflective particles aerosols into the high atmosphere

1741
01:06:08,980 --> 01:06:13,020
those particles would reflect a small amount perhaps

1742
01:06:13,020 --> 01:06:16,380
1% of the incoming sunlight and there

1743
01:06:16,380 --> 01:06:17,960
was good evidence that this could be used

1744
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,520
to cool down the planet and perhaps to

1745
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:25,040
reduce some climate impacts vulnerable people around the

1746
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:27,380
world researchers say that this could be done

1747
01:06:27,380 --> 01:06:30,900
using aircraft already in service today rather than

1748
01:06:30,900 --> 01:06:35,020
developing new ones despite the lower altitude it

1749
01:06:35,020 --> 01:06:37,100
would still be possible to cool the planet

1750
01:06:37,100 --> 01:06:41,400
by around 0.6 degrees Celsius when you

1751
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,580
when you deploy listen to this guy listen

1752
01:06:43,580 --> 01:06:47,820
to what he says Celsius when you when

1753
01:06:47,820 --> 01:06:52,720
you deploy stratospheric aerosol injection you can change

1754
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,560
atmospheric circulation patterns and so this can do

1755
01:06:55,560 --> 01:07:00,340
things like like disrupt precipitation patterns cause droughts

1756
01:07:00,340 --> 01:07:03,860
in some places cause excessive flooding in other

1757
01:07:03,860 --> 01:07:06,880
places sounds exactly what's been happening to me

1758
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:10,700
but other experts have urged caution saying geoengineering

1759
01:07:10,700 --> 01:07:13,420
projects like this one don't offer long-term

1760
01:07:13,420 --> 01:07:17,220
solutions so as as kind of you know

1761
01:07:17,220 --> 01:07:19,360
the Alex Jones and me would say this

1762
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,340
is exactly what they do do it for

1763
01:07:22,340 --> 01:07:23,960
decades and then say oh we have this

1764
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:25,860
great idea and we've already been doing it

1765
01:07:25,860 --> 01:07:28,680
because it's in the jet fuel and Bobby

1766
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:29,980
the op RFK jr.

1767
01:07:30,340 --> 01:07:33,340
took a question about this yesterday on the

1768
01:07:33,340 --> 01:07:33,640
dr.

1769
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:38,300
Phil show Emily and my biggest concern is

1770
01:07:38,300 --> 01:07:42,720
the stratospheric aerosol injections that are continuously peppered

1771
01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:47,740
on us every day and bromium aluminum strontium

1772
01:07:47,740 --> 01:07:50,260
it's sprayed in our skies all day long

1773
01:07:50,260 --> 01:07:52,820
and I know you've talked to Dane Wigington

1774
01:07:52,820 --> 01:07:54,740
about this he seems to be one of

1775
01:07:54,740 --> 01:07:57,360
the experts in the field you got a

1776
01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:01,780
question yes how do we stop it that

1777
01:08:01,780 --> 01:08:04,900
is it's not happening in my agency you

1778
01:08:04,900 --> 01:08:08,320
know we don't do that it's done we

1779
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:11,960
think by DARPA and a lot of it

1780
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:13,900
now is coming out of the jet fuel

1781
01:08:13,900 --> 01:08:16,840
you know those materials are put in jet

1782
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:20,520
fuel we I'm gonna do everything that in

1783
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:23,140
my power to stop it we're bringing on

1784
01:08:23,140 --> 01:08:26,840
somebody who's gonna think only about that find

1785
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,920
out who's doing and holding them accountable oh

1786
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:31,779
Bobby he's a kook he's a kook he

1787
01:08:31,779 --> 01:08:34,880
believes in chemtrails they're always talking about jet

1788
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:37,200
fuel yes this has been the theory for

1789
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:39,800
a long time yeah that's a bad theory

1790
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:43,040
why well for one thing it would be

1791
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,700
corrosive but I've tested jet fuel when I

1792
01:08:45,700 --> 01:08:47,760
was a chemist at Union Oil that was

1793
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,300
none of these things in that was not

1794
01:08:50,300 --> 01:08:53,279
in the last 25 years well as you

1795
01:08:53,279 --> 01:08:56,460
know no no well chemtrails have been talked

1796
01:08:56,460 --> 01:08:58,640
about way longer than when I was when

1797
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:00,200
I was a kid they were talking about

1798
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:04,319
him well I the materials she talked about

1799
01:09:04,319 --> 01:09:06,080
and I've seen this happen in Los Angeles

1800
01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:10,120
what floated down onto my house the strontium

1801
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,520
barium and now I there's something to this

1802
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,540
there is some and and it's always been

1803
01:09:16,540 --> 01:09:19,160
suspected that it's in the jet fuel because

1804
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:20,979
you see it coming and it's not like

1805
01:09:20,979 --> 01:09:22,760
the guys in the with the jet they

1806
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:24,479
put all kinds of crap in jet fuel

1807
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,700
you can pee in jet fuel and it'll

1808
01:09:26,700 --> 01:09:31,859
still work it's diesel basically kerosene kerosene you

1809
01:09:31,859 --> 01:09:33,720
know so no I think this is happening

1810
01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:35,920
and ever since President Trump got elected it's

1811
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:38,939
been pretty beautiful here in in Texas blue

1812
01:09:38,939 --> 01:09:43,020
skies where we would have every other day

1813
01:09:43,020 --> 01:09:45,340
if not days in a row of chemtrails

1814
01:09:45,340 --> 01:09:48,560
spreading out all across the sky making it

1815
01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:52,200
gray no I'm I think this is for

1816
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,300
real I think okay well you can think

1817
01:09:54,300 --> 01:09:56,800
what you want we can agree to disagree

1818
01:09:56,800 --> 01:10:03,800
oh wait until you hear what I have

1819
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:06,600
to say coming up you think that's bad

1820
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:08,680
you're not gonna agree with anything I say

1821
01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:12,020
it's okay you got anything you got any

1822
01:10:12,020 --> 01:10:13,840
series anything you want to want to launch

1823
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:15,920
into here well let's get rid of the

1824
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:17,740
tick-tock clips yeah well I was hoping

1825
01:10:17,740 --> 01:10:20,480
you were gonna do student loan oh the

1826
01:10:20,480 --> 01:10:22,740
student loans yes everybody wants student loan with

1827
01:10:22,740 --> 01:10:25,780
tick-tock clips okay let's go student loan

1828
01:10:25,780 --> 01:10:28,760
revamp part one Capitol Hill House Republicans are

1829
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,240
working to revamp the federal student loan system

1830
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,320
as part of their big budget bill and

1831
01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:36,460
efforts to cut government spending entities Melina Weisskopf

1832
01:10:36,460 --> 01:10:39,060
has the details Republicans are working towards ending

1833
01:10:39,060 --> 01:10:42,100
President Biden's attempts to forgive student loan debt

1834
01:10:42,100 --> 01:10:45,340
after the courts rejected Biden's plan to forgive

1835
01:10:45,340 --> 01:10:47,880
student loan debt he enacted a workaround through

1836
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:50,580
the save program that allowed so many borrowers

1837
01:10:50,580 --> 01:10:52,800
to pay back zero dollars on their student

1838
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,920
loans and not accrue interest now Republican lawmakers

1839
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,820
are trying to overhaul that entire Biden era

1840
01:10:58,820 --> 01:11:01,800
student loan payback program in addition Republican lawmakers

1841
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:03,920
aim to cap the amount that students can

1842
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,000
borrow in the first place the limit is

1843
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:07,920
going to be the median price of a

1844
01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,440
college university or a program of study the

1845
01:11:10,440 --> 01:11:12,580
Republican chairman of the Education Committee says the

1846
01:11:12,580 --> 01:11:14,660
goal with these new limits is to encourage

1847
01:11:14,660 --> 01:11:17,260
colleges to lower their costs our current broken

1848
01:11:17,260 --> 01:11:20,820
system encourages students to accept more and more

1849
01:11:20,820 --> 01:11:24,760
debt without ever addressing college costs it's no

1850
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,380
secret that spending in Washington has been a

1851
01:11:27,380 --> 01:11:31,100
disaster waste fraud and abuse has left the

1852
01:11:31,100 --> 01:11:35,140
American taxpayer on the hook for government bloat

1853
01:11:35,140 --> 01:11:38,180
who was that at the end you know

1854
01:11:38,180 --> 01:11:39,700
I don't know but it sounds like Reagan

1855
01:11:39,700 --> 01:11:42,120
exactly I was like I know the same

1856
01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:45,720
similar voice patterns probably a milieu thing hmm

1857
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:49,260
so here's part now the part two is

1858
01:11:49,260 --> 01:11:52,500
that I just was it's a long story

1859
01:11:52,500 --> 01:11:54,540
how this happened but I got these clips

1860
01:11:54,540 --> 01:11:56,320
kind of screwed up but the second part

1861
01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:59,620
is a student loan redux to and Republicans

1862
01:11:59,620 --> 01:12:01,560
are working to make several changes to the

1863
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:03,580
Pell Grant so the goal is to try

1864
01:12:03,580 --> 01:12:05,400
to limit the Pell Grant only to those

1865
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:07,960
who need it most and change the requirements

1866
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:11,540
from 12 credit hours per semester to 30

1867
01:12:11,540 --> 01:12:14,580
credit hours per year now Democrats said it's

1868
01:12:14,580 --> 01:12:18,340
unfair for untraditional students with other obligations outside

1869
01:12:18,340 --> 01:12:20,560
of school such as who I have obligations

1870
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:23,020
to family or for jobs here's the ranking

1871
01:12:23,020 --> 01:12:25,040
Democrat member on the committee speaking about it

1872
01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:28,300
yesterday because they may need more financial support

1873
01:12:28,300 --> 01:12:30,640
to cover the basic needs like housing child

1874
01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:34,000
care and transportation at a time when families

1875
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,120
are struggling to make ends meet I'm confused

1876
01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:39,120
why we're making it harder for working parents

1877
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:42,500
who are trying to further their education the

1878
01:12:42,500 --> 01:12:44,780
Republican chairman for his part noted that the

1879
01:12:44,780 --> 01:12:46,260
Pell Grant is on track to run a

1880
01:12:46,260 --> 01:12:49,100
shortfall of 70 to 100 billion dollars within

1881
01:12:49,100 --> 01:12:51,580
the decade so he's trying to avoid that

1882
01:12:51,580 --> 01:12:53,960
Republicans are also trying to change the Pell

1883
01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:57,260
Grant to include vocational programs for example schools

1884
01:12:57,260 --> 01:13:00,380
for cosmetology or welding training any career path

1885
01:13:00,380 --> 01:13:03,260
that does not require a traditional college degree

1886
01:13:03,260 --> 01:13:05,540
if students choose to choose to take those

1887
01:13:05,540 --> 01:13:07,820
paths they will qualify for a so-called

1888
01:13:07,820 --> 01:13:11,160
workforce Pell Grant for the first time okay

1889
01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,920
so where that's interesting and that's a good

1890
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:19,540
stimulus for welders what what happens with the

1891
01:13:19,540 --> 01:13:22,080
student loans people now have to repay is

1892
01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:23,880
the question they have to repay them that's

1893
01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:26,340
what they have to do are they going

1894
01:13:26,340 --> 01:13:28,560
to are they going to have programs to

1895
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:31,860
refinance they'd like the reduction programs if you

1896
01:13:31,860 --> 01:13:33,940
work for the police department things like that

1897
01:13:33,940 --> 01:13:35,540
they're gonna have the same exceptions that have

1898
01:13:35,540 --> 01:13:37,580
always been in there okay but they have

1899
01:13:37,580 --> 01:13:38,900
to pay you take the loan out the

1900
01:13:38,900 --> 01:13:40,860
real problem I think it was mentioned in

1901
01:13:40,860 --> 01:13:43,540
the first clip is that these colleges they

1902
01:13:43,540 --> 01:13:45,700
saw the whole thing as a scam that

1903
01:13:45,700 --> 01:13:49,540
owed free money this is jack our tuition

1904
01:13:49,540 --> 01:13:51,500
up yep and oh they get even more

1905
01:13:51,500 --> 01:13:53,500
free money with the higher tuition well let's

1906
01:13:53,500 --> 01:13:55,840
jack it up even more the amount of

1907
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:59,240
to the tuition fees and not just the

1908
01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:01,840
private universities but the public universities are just

1909
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:05,180
as high as like the Harvard I was

1910
01:14:05,180 --> 01:14:07,840
unbelievable what a scam this has become I've

1911
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:09,820
been looking at some of these endowments like

1912
01:14:09,820 --> 01:14:14,600
Harvard their endowments are huge they have over

1913
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:16,620
I think they have a hundred billion dollars

1914
01:14:16,620 --> 01:14:18,900
or something like that so which is you

1915
01:14:18,900 --> 01:14:21,760
know arguably what we spent on Ukraine in

1916
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:23,800
three years it was probably more but let's

1917
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,840
just say that's the number and that's tax

1918
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,160
-free the only tax they have is 4

1919
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:32,820
% they pay to the colleges and the

1920
01:14:32,820 --> 01:14:34,780
rest is just you know who's managing that

1921
01:14:34,780 --> 01:14:37,640
money what's happening with that it's I think

1922
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:40,440
black rocks got most that's that's the scam

1923
01:14:40,440 --> 01:14:42,460
if you ask me the scam is those

1924
01:14:42,460 --> 01:14:46,580
endowments and that's that's why Trump administration is

1925
01:14:46,580 --> 01:14:50,040
being hard-nosed about it they want control

1926
01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:51,560
over that or they want to know what's

1927
01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:53,740
going on with it that that I see

1928
01:14:53,740 --> 01:14:56,140
it as a possible source of taxation that's

1929
01:14:56,140 --> 01:14:58,600
public that can pay yet less yeah in

1930
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:00,720
other words the taxpayer can pay less and

1931
01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:03,560
those guys can pay their fair share where's

1932
01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,020
their fair share for a start yeah I

1933
01:15:06,020 --> 01:15:08,760
mean especially Harvard but all of them have

1934
01:15:08,760 --> 01:15:11,120
huge endowments all of them do all of

1935
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:13,140
them it's that to me is a is

1936
01:15:13,140 --> 01:15:16,620
a money scam those endowments is a tax

1937
01:15:16,620 --> 01:15:21,480
avoidance system for mega elites it has to

1938
01:15:21,480 --> 01:15:23,920
be certainly if Black Rocks in there then

1939
01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:28,580
can't be anything good no I mean and

1940
01:15:28,580 --> 01:15:30,340
then and then the other students who get

1941
01:15:30,340 --> 01:15:38,140
cajoled into a gender studies diploma poli sci

1942
01:15:38,140 --> 01:15:43,240
you know they owe $100,000 and they

1943
01:15:43,240 --> 01:15:45,520
got nothing nowhere to go if they owe

1944
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:49,620
$100,000 that's low it's cheap yeah so

1945
01:15:49,620 --> 01:15:52,640
well that's good that's it that's not getting

1946
01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:57,020
enough attention that that endowment scam is is

1947
01:15:57,020 --> 01:16:01,400
a problem I got did you receive the

1948
01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:06,570
Michelle Obama clip 20 times which one the

1949
01:16:06,570 --> 01:16:09,250
one where she's going on about well there's

1950
01:16:09,250 --> 01:16:11,030
a bunch of them which one you talking

1951
01:16:11,030 --> 01:16:13,550
about well the one that's going around is

1952
01:16:13,550 --> 01:16:15,790
oddly clips which of course makes me always

1953
01:16:15,790 --> 01:16:17,990
go for the original oh it was a

1954
01:16:17,990 --> 01:16:20,310
slip-up she's saying she's a man she's

1955
01:16:20,310 --> 01:16:22,230
saying oh I love that clip here you

1956
01:16:22,230 --> 01:16:23,950
know I always you don't you notice it's

1957
01:16:23,950 --> 01:16:26,350
not on my list no but I thought

1958
01:16:26,350 --> 01:16:31,190
that clip was was terrific it's obviously chopped

1959
01:16:31,190 --> 01:16:33,450
off but people like this to me like

1960
01:16:33,450 --> 01:16:35,530
this is clip of the day this is

1961
01:16:35,530 --> 01:16:37,810
the best it's a very funny clip big

1962
01:16:37,810 --> 01:16:40,850
Mike is a man you know just so

1963
01:16:40,850 --> 01:16:44,330
proud of how you are being a role

1964
01:16:44,330 --> 01:16:47,490
model for dealing with a child that's transgender

1965
01:16:47,490 --> 01:16:51,270
absolutely and that's you know that warms my

1966
01:16:51,270 --> 01:16:54,970
heart particularly as a black man so the

1967
01:16:54,970 --> 01:16:57,690
video is the best so the video cuts

1968
01:16:57,690 --> 01:17:01,830
to her brother while she's talking so the

1969
01:17:01,830 --> 01:17:05,450
implication is as a black man you had

1970
01:17:05,450 --> 01:17:09,330
to deal with me a black man who's

1971
01:17:09,330 --> 01:17:19,110
transgender I'm not fighting that obvious truth

1972
01:17:19,110 --> 01:17:21,550
but here is the full clip in context

1973
01:17:21,550 --> 01:17:24,230
where she's actually talking to one of the

1974
01:17:24,230 --> 01:17:28,810
Wayans brothers about his transgender child well speaking

1975
01:17:28,810 --> 01:17:31,410
of parenting I wanted to talk Marlon a

1976
01:17:31,410 --> 01:17:34,290
bit about you know see they missed a

1977
01:17:34,290 --> 01:17:36,650
little Marlon bit just so proud of how

1978
01:17:36,650 --> 01:17:40,230
you are being a role model for dealing

1979
01:17:40,230 --> 01:17:44,590
with a child that's transgender absolutely and that's

1980
01:17:44,590 --> 01:17:47,130
you know that warms my heart particularly as

1981
01:17:47,130 --> 01:17:50,510
a black man you know I would you

1982
01:17:50,510 --> 01:17:58,510
care to share that journey of their transition

1983
01:17:58,510 --> 01:18:03,050
really taught me what real unconditional love was

1984
01:18:03,050 --> 01:18:05,570
by the way notice how Marlon is so

1985
01:18:05,570 --> 01:18:09,130
psyop that he's calling his transgender child they

1986
01:18:09,130 --> 01:18:11,310
when I went when they went through the

1987
01:18:11,310 --> 01:18:15,790
transition I actually went through the transition from

1988
01:18:15,790 --> 01:18:19,510
denial to complete acceptance and it took me

1989
01:18:19,510 --> 01:18:21,470
a week to get there only a week

1990
01:18:21,470 --> 01:18:23,810
it's easy it's easy parents only a week

1991
01:18:23,810 --> 01:18:27,670
unbelievable so anyway I just I had to

1992
01:18:27,670 --> 01:18:28,950
get that out of the way because that

1993
01:18:28,950 --> 01:18:30,950
was all over you of the text groups

1994
01:18:30,950 --> 01:18:33,630
in Fredericksburg are exploding big Mike it's true

1995
01:18:33,630 --> 01:18:34,850
JFK jr.

1996
01:18:34,910 --> 01:18:41,270
is coming back next no when I saw

1997
01:18:41,270 --> 01:18:44,170
it I knew I was gonna you know

1998
01:18:44,170 --> 01:18:47,510
you knew immediately was like miss it was

1999
01:18:47,510 --> 01:18:49,910
clipped for that purpose yeah and and I

2000
01:18:49,910 --> 01:18:52,070
figured you'd go grab the real deal and

2001
01:18:52,070 --> 01:18:54,050
you play it out so I didn't have

2002
01:18:54,050 --> 01:18:55,930
to even do it of course I did

2003
01:18:55,930 --> 01:18:58,210
of course good for you that's what I

2004
01:18:58,210 --> 01:19:04,170
do defending the woman hey we had a

2005
01:19:04,170 --> 01:19:08,710
big a very big bill pass in the

2006
01:19:08,710 --> 01:19:11,510
house the Texas House this week I think

2007
01:19:11,510 --> 01:19:13,890
two days ago and it's not it's not

2008
01:19:13,890 --> 01:19:15,910
law yet because it has to go to

2009
01:19:15,910 --> 01:19:21,390
the Senate this is the undisclosed AI generated

2010
01:19:21,390 --> 01:19:24,470
images and political messages bill that's not the

2011
01:19:24,470 --> 01:19:27,930
real title but it's interesting and the debate

2012
01:19:27,930 --> 01:19:30,170
is interesting around that as well former House

2013
01:19:30,170 --> 01:19:31,870
Speaker did feel in is the one that

2014
01:19:31,870 --> 01:19:35,270
filed House Bill 366 he was the subject

2015
01:19:35,270 --> 01:19:37,790
of political attacks and memes in his most

2016
01:19:37,790 --> 01:19:41,690
recent re-election campaign mail flyers depicted him

2017
01:19:41,690 --> 01:19:44,730
hugging Democrat Nancy Pelosi something that he never

2018
01:19:44,730 --> 01:19:47,370
did but he says that's not why he

2019
01:19:47,370 --> 01:19:49,810
decided to file this bill under House Bill

2020
01:19:49,810 --> 01:19:54,410
366 it requires any political advertising that uses

2021
01:19:54,410 --> 01:19:57,870
altered images including generative AI or deepfake videos

2022
01:19:57,870 --> 01:20:00,550
to contain a disclosure stating that the content

2023
01:20:00,550 --> 01:20:03,110
did not occur failure to do so would

2024
01:20:03,110 --> 01:20:05,770
be a class-a misdemeanor current state law

2025
01:20:05,770 --> 01:20:08,330
prohibits the use of AI generated pictures within

2026
01:20:08,330 --> 01:20:11,290
30 days of an election date feeling says

2027
01:20:11,290 --> 01:20:13,970
this is about making sure election law keeps

2028
01:20:13,970 --> 01:20:16,510
up with the evolving AI industry because a

2029
01:20:16,510 --> 01:20:18,730
deceptive ad could swing an election it's a

2030
01:20:18,730 --> 01:20:21,630
very common punishment when you're dealing with something

2031
01:20:21,630 --> 01:20:25,110
as important as an election especially election I

2032
01:20:25,110 --> 01:20:27,570
could say is a stolen election when in

2033
01:20:27,570 --> 01:20:29,890
the last 72 hours of a campaign a

2034
01:20:29,890 --> 01:20:32,370
video can be released that entirely changes the

2035
01:20:32,370 --> 01:20:35,130
nature of the electorate going into election day

2036
01:20:35,130 --> 01:20:37,690
several lawmakers lined up to speak against the

2037
01:20:37,690 --> 01:20:39,610
bill some said the bill is too vague

2038
01:20:39,610 --> 01:20:42,410
and could face First Amendment legal challenges some

2039
01:20:42,410 --> 01:20:45,230
conservatives also said the criminal penalties are too

2040
01:20:45,230 --> 01:20:47,410
steep and people should not be thrown in

2041
01:20:47,410 --> 01:20:50,330
jail for political speech this is insanity that

2042
01:20:50,330 --> 01:20:53,550
we would propose such a harsh penalty for

2043
01:20:53,550 --> 01:20:57,710
simply expressing our displeasure of an elected official

2044
01:20:57,710 --> 01:21:01,070
this is anti-american this is anti-constitution

2045
01:21:01,070 --> 01:21:03,650
feeling says he understands that but the penalties

2046
01:21:03,650 --> 01:21:05,530
need to be major to make sure that

2047
01:21:05,530 --> 01:21:08,790
multimillion-dollar campaigns play by the rules the

2048
01:21:08,790 --> 01:21:10,210
bill now heads over to the Senate for

2049
01:21:10,210 --> 01:21:13,550
consideration and it could frankly face an uphill

2050
01:21:13,550 --> 01:21:16,110
battle because lieutenant governor Dan Patrick is the

2051
01:21:16,110 --> 01:21:18,690
one that controls the Senate Patrick and Phelan

2052
01:21:18,690 --> 01:21:20,990
have had a rocky relationship to say the

2053
01:21:20,990 --> 01:21:23,610
least that goes back to the impeachment of

2054
01:21:23,610 --> 01:21:26,830
Attorney General Ken Paxton and several Senate bills

2055
01:21:26,830 --> 01:21:28,470
that have died over in the house over

2056
01:21:28,470 --> 01:21:31,310
the last couple of legislative sessions so this

2057
01:21:31,310 --> 01:21:34,630
is a again one of the only interesting

2058
01:21:34,630 --> 01:21:39,870
uses of artificial quote intelligence I feel you

2059
01:21:39,870 --> 01:21:41,090
should be able to do that it brings

2060
01:21:41,090 --> 01:21:44,090
humor into the process I'm delighted with it

2061
01:21:44,090 --> 01:21:46,750
and yeah absolutely you should put a total

2062
01:21:46,750 --> 01:21:48,830
agreement yeah put a disclaimer on it just

2063
01:21:48,830 --> 01:21:50,250
like the drug you don't even do off

2064
01:21:50,250 --> 01:21:53,670
screw the disclaimer I'm okay I'm okay with

2065
01:21:53,670 --> 01:21:55,270
the bill that says the disclaimer could just

2066
01:21:55,270 --> 01:21:56,970
do it like the ad companies may cause

2067
01:21:56,970 --> 01:21:58,410
a no leakage you may die and that's

2068
01:21:58,410 --> 01:22:00,970
all you need to do you know just

2069
01:22:00,970 --> 01:22:03,970
but the thing is even with the disclaimer

2070
01:22:03,970 --> 01:22:06,210
it doesn't matter because some of these things

2071
01:22:06,210 --> 01:22:07,990
will crop up as memes and they'll be

2072
01:22:07,990 --> 01:22:10,750
coming in anonymously from out of state it's

2073
01:22:10,750 --> 01:22:12,930
great I love and it's gonna show the

2074
01:22:12,930 --> 01:22:15,410
guy kissing Pelosi on the lips or whatever

2075
01:22:15,410 --> 01:22:18,070
who cares it's great but you think it's

2076
01:22:18,070 --> 01:22:19,710
funny and you know and if you can't

2077
01:22:19,710 --> 01:22:21,990
counter it if you can't counter it you're

2078
01:22:21,990 --> 01:22:25,270
this is a modern era yeah if you're

2079
01:22:25,270 --> 01:22:29,970
being besmirched smeared this besmirched I tell you

2080
01:22:29,970 --> 01:22:31,910
have to be able to cut as a

2081
01:22:31,910 --> 01:22:35,450
politician mm-hmm unless you're being libeled which

2082
01:22:35,450 --> 01:22:40,150
is different if you're being just smeared just

2083
01:22:40,150 --> 01:22:42,690
casually smeared is you have to be have

2084
01:22:42,690 --> 01:22:44,930
enough chops yes to get out of the

2085
01:22:44,930 --> 01:22:48,770
smear using your own wiles your own but

2086
01:22:48,770 --> 01:22:50,490
you by using your own use your own

2087
01:22:50,490 --> 01:22:52,050
AI yeah you can do the same thing

2088
01:22:52,050 --> 01:22:54,790
to the other guy what's that in your

2089
01:22:54,790 --> 01:23:04,570
mouth yeah yeah it's this is the

2090
01:23:04,570 --> 01:23:06,450
only thing they're worried about by the way

2091
01:23:06,450 --> 01:23:09,630
that's all they're worried about AI ma'am

2092
01:23:09,630 --> 01:23:12,230
I did some more vibe coding I will

2093
01:23:12,230 --> 01:23:15,350
say when it comes to getting me actual

2094
01:23:15,350 --> 01:23:21,590
results with coding grok funny enough someone suggests

2095
01:23:21,590 --> 01:23:24,070
I've tried them all I've tried chat GPT

2096
01:23:24,070 --> 01:23:27,210
Claude cursor cursor is not as way too

2097
01:23:27,210 --> 01:23:30,170
complicated that integrates with their IDE and I

2098
01:23:30,170 --> 01:23:31,610
don't have any of that I've just want

2099
01:23:31,610 --> 01:23:33,330
a simple script which I could have done

2100
01:23:33,330 --> 01:23:35,630
in two hours of my buddy Dave and

2101
01:23:35,630 --> 01:23:36,850
we would have been done with it but

2102
01:23:36,850 --> 01:23:39,230
now it's taking me collectively three weeks of

2103
01:23:39,230 --> 01:23:41,170
at least several hours on several of those

2104
01:23:41,170 --> 01:23:43,450
days to come up with a simple script

2105
01:23:43,450 --> 01:23:47,210
in PA in Python I'm sorry grok actually

2106
01:23:47,210 --> 01:23:52,830
did did pretty well but there's no absolutely

2107
01:23:52,830 --> 01:23:56,790
no evidence of intelligence it's it's just looking

2108
01:23:56,790 --> 01:23:59,470
at the words the language the structure the

2109
01:23:59,470 --> 01:24:02,430
syntax it can do all that and it's

2110
01:24:02,430 --> 01:24:04,490
just using old stuff that it learned somewhere

2111
01:24:04,490 --> 01:24:07,050
else and I know this because when it

2112
01:24:07,050 --> 01:24:10,650
comes to one particular language liquid soap long

2113
01:24:10,650 --> 01:24:13,690
story it's it's doing everything wrong and they

2114
01:24:13,690 --> 01:24:15,350
all do it wrong because they all have

2115
01:24:15,350 --> 01:24:17,910
sucked up the same wrong information and that

2116
01:24:17,910 --> 01:24:20,790
whole project is a mess with githubs and

2117
01:24:20,790 --> 01:24:23,830
get labs and different documentation and so it

2118
01:24:23,830 --> 01:24:28,530
has no intelligence but it's doing enough stuff

2119
01:24:28,530 --> 01:24:32,770
that yeah okay it this is a 50

2120
01:24:32,770 --> 01:24:35,650
billion dollar industry not a trillion dollar industry

2121
01:24:35,650 --> 01:24:39,450
it's still all parlor tricks have it right

2122
01:24:39,450 --> 01:24:44,350
your your Dvorak and substack you won't you'll

2123
01:24:44,350 --> 01:24:48,510
throw it out I could probably have it

2124
01:24:48,510 --> 01:24:50,170
do something and then I could edit it

2125
01:24:50,170 --> 01:24:51,830
to an extreme I'd probably spend more time

2126
01:24:51,830 --> 01:24:55,670
editing exactly that it would take actually right

2127
01:24:55,670 --> 01:24:59,090
from scratch yes not an unusual situation that's

2128
01:24:59,090 --> 01:25:02,690
the point that's exactly the point is but

2129
01:25:02,690 --> 01:25:04,390
if you can't yeah but I can write

2130
01:25:04,390 --> 01:25:06,710
from scratch and I can write pretty quickly

2131
01:25:06,710 --> 01:25:09,990
yes but if you can't write from scratch

2132
01:25:09,990 --> 01:25:14,530
you'll write some mediocre over word salad that's

2133
01:25:14,530 --> 01:25:16,290
over inflated and I'll have a little nice

2134
01:25:16,290 --> 01:25:18,990
little icons next to it it's no good

2135
01:25:18,990 --> 01:25:22,370
emojis emojis emojis and it'll start off with

2136
01:25:22,370 --> 01:25:26,090
I'm so happy to find you well exactly

2137
01:25:26,090 --> 01:25:34,050
what you're gonna get oh man so Ava

2138
01:25:34,050 --> 01:25:37,010
flooding a brook do you remember how your

2139
01:25:37,010 --> 01:25:39,670
buddy she's not my buddy I've never met

2140
01:25:39,670 --> 01:25:42,870
her oh she seems like she'd be your

2141
01:25:42,870 --> 01:25:46,870
buddy well she happens to be Dutch and

2142
01:25:46,870 --> 01:25:50,050
she has the the the I'm Adam she's

2143
01:25:50,050 --> 01:25:54,710
Ava so you would think coincidentally also born

2144
01:25:54,710 --> 01:25:57,370
on September 3rd which is my birthday well

2145
01:25:57,370 --> 01:25:58,710
there you go you two are meant for

2146
01:25:58,710 --> 01:26:00,930
each other we're twin flames I tell you

2147
01:26:00,930 --> 01:26:05,110
Tina's rolling her eyes when she hears that

2148
01:26:05,110 --> 01:26:10,610
so she posted a very interesting video about

2149
01:26:10,610 --> 01:26:13,230
her iPhone and I need to share this

2150
01:26:13,230 --> 01:26:16,490
because she there's if this is true and

2151
01:26:16,490 --> 01:26:18,450
I'll take her at her word it has

2152
01:26:18,450 --> 01:26:21,230
some interesting implications and of course she's using

2153
01:26:21,230 --> 01:26:23,250
it for engagement farming but here we go

2154
01:26:23,250 --> 01:26:26,050
hi everyone so yesterday I got two messages

2155
01:26:26,050 --> 01:26:29,550
from Apple stating that they detected a mercenary

2156
01:26:29,550 --> 01:26:33,470
spyware attack against my iPhone first I thought

2157
01:26:33,470 --> 01:26:35,210
it was fake I got two of these

2158
01:26:35,210 --> 01:26:37,330
messages and I thought it's probably not real

2159
01:26:37,330 --> 01:26:39,930
but upon further research it turns out that

2160
01:26:39,930 --> 01:26:42,890
these messages actually are real and so that

2161
01:26:42,890 --> 01:26:45,330
this is actually happening and in the message

2162
01:26:45,330 --> 01:26:49,930
they say that this targeted mercenary spyware attack

2163
01:26:49,930 --> 01:26:53,750
is probably happening because of who I am

2164
01:26:53,750 --> 01:26:56,450
and what I do and then they continue

2165
01:26:56,450 --> 01:27:00,030
to say that mercenary spyware attacks such as

2166
01:27:00,030 --> 01:27:03,570
Pegasus for example are exceptionally rare and that

2167
01:27:03,570 --> 01:27:05,970
they're extremely sophisticated they use really strong words

2168
01:27:05,970 --> 01:27:09,870
they're saying that the extreme cost sophistication and

2169
01:27:09,870 --> 01:27:13,810
worldwide nature of mercenary spyware attacks makes some

2170
01:27:13,810 --> 01:27:16,110
of the most advanced digital threats in existence

2171
01:27:16,110 --> 01:27:19,670
today and they're sending this to me because

2172
01:27:19,670 --> 01:27:21,490
they've detected that it's going on against my

2173
01:27:21,490 --> 01:27:24,410
iPhone so this is real obviously I don't

2174
01:27:24,410 --> 01:27:27,150
know for sure if any of that spyware

2175
01:27:27,150 --> 01:27:29,470
has been installed on my phone I definitely

2176
01:27:29,470 --> 01:27:31,370
don't know who did it so this could

2177
01:27:31,370 --> 01:27:33,830
be anyone this could be name a government

2178
01:27:33,830 --> 01:27:36,230
that doesn't like me this could be any

2179
01:27:36,230 --> 01:27:40,750
organization that doesn't like me secret services you

2180
01:27:40,750 --> 01:27:42,670
name it but what I do know for

2181
01:27:42,670 --> 01:27:45,950
sure is that this is an attempt to

2182
01:27:45,950 --> 01:27:48,870
intimidate me an attempt to silence me obviously

2183
01:27:48,870 --> 01:27:52,530
and I can tell them because they're probably

2184
01:27:52,530 --> 01:27:55,070
already watching on this phone right now that

2185
01:27:55,070 --> 01:27:57,710
it's not gonna work so you can try

2186
01:27:57,710 --> 01:27:59,510
and intimidate me all you want but I'm

2187
01:27:59,510 --> 01:28:01,730
not gonna stop that's all I want you

2188
01:28:01,730 --> 01:28:05,070
guys and I want the people spying on

2189
01:28:05,070 --> 01:28:09,070
me through this phone to know so I

2190
01:28:09,070 --> 01:28:11,350
don't for a second think that they're using

2191
01:28:11,350 --> 01:28:14,170
this to intimidate her she didn't know it

2192
01:28:14,170 --> 01:28:15,970
they didn't say hey we've got your phone

2193
01:28:15,970 --> 01:28:17,430
we saw what you did send me a

2194
01:28:17,430 --> 01:28:20,910
Bitcoin none of that I think she is

2195
01:28:20,910 --> 01:28:24,470
being used to infect other people if this

2196
01:28:24,470 --> 01:28:25,830
is true and I'll take her at her

2197
01:28:25,830 --> 01:28:27,930
word that she got these notices from Apple

2198
01:28:27,930 --> 01:28:31,610
which is very concerning well there is a

2199
01:28:31,610 --> 01:28:33,550
page Apple does I'm looking at it now

2200
01:28:33,550 --> 01:28:35,350
mm-hmm Apple does have a page up

2201
01:28:35,350 --> 01:28:37,990
about it is call it from Apple and

2202
01:28:37,990 --> 01:28:40,790
it says about the Apple threat notifications which

2203
01:28:40,790 --> 01:28:42,910
is what she's talking about and protecting against

2204
01:28:42,910 --> 01:28:45,830
mercenary spyware and there's a long lecture here

2205
01:28:45,830 --> 01:28:47,770
hmm how do you know it's not a

2206
01:28:47,770 --> 01:28:49,390
phony deal how do you get it do

2207
01:28:49,390 --> 01:28:51,110
you get it by by tapping on a

2208
01:28:51,110 --> 01:28:53,470
link and a text message I'm trying to

2209
01:28:53,470 --> 01:28:55,570
find out because they're very wordy this has

2210
01:28:55,570 --> 01:29:00,210
obviously been written by a no Apple intelligence

2211
01:29:00,210 --> 01:29:03,510
probably not AI Apple which is worse yes

2212
01:29:03,510 --> 01:29:06,450
it is according to public reporting and research

2213
01:29:06,450 --> 01:29:11,010
by civil society organizations technology firms and journalists

2214
01:29:11,010 --> 01:29:14,530
individually targeted attacks of such exceptional of such

2215
01:29:14,530 --> 01:29:18,030
exceptional cost and complexity have historically been associated

2216
01:29:18,030 --> 01:29:22,210
with state actors including private companies developing mercenary

2217
01:29:22,210 --> 01:29:25,150
spyware on their behalf such as Pegasus from

2218
01:29:25,150 --> 01:29:28,190
the NSO group though deployed against a very

2219
01:29:28,190 --> 01:29:31,770
small number of individuals often journalists activists politicians

2220
01:29:31,770 --> 01:29:34,070
and diplomats it could be I could be

2221
01:29:34,070 --> 01:29:37,870
actioned against me for example and it's in

2222
01:29:37,870 --> 01:29:41,430
the drawers we speak mercenary spyware attacks are

2223
01:29:41,430 --> 01:29:45,450
ongoing and global and since 2021 we have

2224
01:29:45,450 --> 01:29:48,230
sent Apple threat notifications multiple times a year

2225
01:29:48,230 --> 01:29:50,650
as we have detected these oh that's interesting

2226
01:29:50,650 --> 01:29:53,290
they can detect them and to date we

2227
01:29:53,290 --> 01:29:56,410
have notified users in over 150 countries in

2228
01:29:56,410 --> 01:30:01,350
total goes on and on I think so

2229
01:30:01,350 --> 01:30:04,170
I however I think she was used as

2230
01:30:04,170 --> 01:30:05,910
a well first of all your phone is

2231
01:30:05,910 --> 01:30:08,210
an attack vector on your life that's just

2232
01:30:08,210 --> 01:30:10,850
a known fact which is why I love

2233
01:30:10,850 --> 01:30:13,070
my light phone three it doesn't do nothing

2234
01:30:15,070 --> 01:30:19,490
however just coincidentally yesterday Tina comes in oh

2235
01:30:19,490 --> 01:30:21,130
my god you won't have believe what happened

2236
01:30:21,130 --> 01:30:25,810
to David so what happened said someone took

2237
01:30:25,810 --> 01:30:29,390
over his phone he no longer receives his

2238
01:30:29,390 --> 01:30:31,310
own text messages that's how we that's part

2239
01:30:31,310 --> 01:30:34,470
of how he noticed it they they stole

2240
01:30:34,470 --> 01:30:39,230
his identity they created a driver's license with

2241
01:30:39,230 --> 01:30:42,150
a driver's license were able to unfreeze all

2242
01:30:42,150 --> 01:30:44,230
of his credit he has credit frozen at

2243
01:30:44,230 --> 01:30:46,990
the three big credit agencies they unfroze the

2244
01:30:46,990 --> 01:30:49,110
credit and then how do you unfreeze the

2245
01:30:49,110 --> 01:30:50,990
credit well you have to you can go

2246
01:30:50,990 --> 01:30:52,750
online and say this is me and they

2247
01:30:52,750 --> 01:30:54,590
had a driver's license they had a social

2248
01:30:54,590 --> 01:30:56,790
security number so did he is he the

2249
01:30:56,790 --> 01:30:58,530
one who froze the credit yes he froze

2250
01:30:58,530 --> 01:31:00,170
it he had it frozen okay like most

2251
01:31:00,170 --> 01:31:02,650
smart people you have your credit frozen so

2252
01:31:02,650 --> 01:31:05,030
you had his credit frozen they unfroze his

2253
01:31:05,030 --> 01:31:08,190
credit they could took completely they took over

2254
01:31:08,190 --> 01:31:10,990
the functions at least the the text messages

2255
01:31:10,990 --> 01:31:14,030
so they cloned or whatever they did that

2256
01:31:14,030 --> 01:31:16,290
I mean and the whole text messaging system

2257
01:31:16,290 --> 01:31:17,870
is that you know system was a system

2258
01:31:17,870 --> 01:31:20,850
7 whatever it's called that you just go

2259
01:31:20,850 --> 01:31:23,930
to some podunk country and say here's 50

2260
01:31:23,930 --> 01:31:25,850
grand let me on the text messaging system

2261
01:31:25,850 --> 01:31:27,890
okay here you go you know that by

2262
01:31:27,890 --> 01:31:30,390
the way those Trump messages you're getting don't

2263
01:31:30,390 --> 01:31:32,850
tap on the link okay it's probably gonna

2264
01:31:32,850 --> 01:31:37,230
get Pegasus spyware or other mercenary spyware and

2265
01:31:37,230 --> 01:31:39,690
then they so then they unfroze his credit

2266
01:31:39,690 --> 01:31:43,070
and immediately went to buy a Mercedes and

2267
01:31:43,070 --> 01:31:50,310
a Porsche Mercedes was okay with him the

2268
01:31:50,310 --> 01:31:52,770
Porsche people called called him at home and

2269
01:31:52,770 --> 01:31:54,550
said hey are you sure you want this

2270
01:31:54,550 --> 01:31:56,530
Porsche and that's how they found out about

2271
01:31:56,530 --> 01:31:59,430
it but the Mercedes deal was done so

2272
01:31:59,430 --> 01:32:02,350
your phone is a threat vector of epic

2273
01:32:02,350 --> 01:32:06,010
proportion and not my phone not yours no

2274
01:32:06,010 --> 01:32:09,310
and should not be used and just to

2275
01:32:09,310 --> 01:32:12,390
complete the whole Scott the whole spy grid

2276
01:32:12,390 --> 01:32:17,170
sound like Katherine Austin Fitz right now after

2277
01:32:17,170 --> 01:32:19,370
Starlink which I saw them fly over again

2278
01:32:19,370 --> 01:32:21,590
last night and I wanted to take a

2279
01:32:21,590 --> 01:32:30,030
picture however the the camera on the on

2280
01:32:30,030 --> 01:32:32,870
this phone is shit so I could not

2281
01:32:32,870 --> 01:32:34,130
get a picture but I saw the whole

2282
01:32:34,130 --> 01:32:36,370
train of lights going right overhead I think

2283
01:32:36,370 --> 01:32:37,630
it has to be on a clear night

2284
01:32:37,630 --> 01:32:39,070
when there's just a little bit of moon

2285
01:32:39,070 --> 01:32:41,270
we have a crescent waning yeah you have

2286
01:32:41,270 --> 01:32:44,370
to catch it because they're over you're over

2287
01:32:44,370 --> 01:32:48,310
there over your all the time you don't

2288
01:32:48,310 --> 01:32:50,410
get to see him necessarily it caught it

2289
01:32:50,410 --> 01:32:52,110
and it was just beautiful I'm like oh

2290
01:32:52,110 --> 01:32:56,350
my yeah I've seen I've never seen any

2291
01:32:56,350 --> 01:32:59,130
second time seeing them while walking the dog

2292
01:32:59,130 --> 01:33:02,050
and now well there's more coming Amazon has

2293
01:33:02,050 --> 01:33:05,490
launched its first batch of internet broadcasting satellites

2294
01:33:05,490 --> 01:33:08,350
kicking off its long-delayed deployment of an

2295
01:33:08,350 --> 01:33:11,710
internet from Space Network 27 satellites are now

2296
01:33:11,710 --> 01:33:14,770
in orbit at an altitude of nearly 630

2297
01:33:14,770 --> 01:33:18,310
kilometers above the Earth's surface Monday's launch from

2298
01:33:18,310 --> 01:33:20,470
the Atlas 5 rocket which took off from

2299
01:33:20,470 --> 01:33:24,270
Florida follows that of two experimental satellites launched

2300
01:33:24,270 --> 01:33:27,030
two years ago as part of project Kuiper

2301
01:33:27,030 --> 01:33:30,450
at ten billion dollars effort unveiled in 2019

2302
01:33:30,450 --> 01:33:34,410
competing with rival Elon Musk Starlink Jeff business

2303
01:33:34,410 --> 01:33:37,130
team claims that the satellites still launching are

2304
01:33:37,130 --> 01:33:39,350
now much more advanced than the first two

2305
01:33:39,350 --> 01:33:41,730
the company aims to put more than 3

2306
01:33:41,730 --> 01:33:45,850
,200 of these satellites into orbit marks SpaceX

2307
01:33:45,850 --> 01:33:48,770
has already launched more than 8,000 Starlink

2308
01:33:48,770 --> 01:33:52,390
since 2019 meanwhile a growing number of astronomers

2309
01:33:52,390 --> 01:33:55,030
are warning that the large number of satellites

2310
01:33:55,030 --> 01:33:57,930
is hampering their work and could pose an

2311
01:33:57,930 --> 01:34:02,810
accident risk yeah whatever so there's 600 kilometers

2312
01:34:02,810 --> 01:34:07,410
but Starlink's are lower I think I think

2313
01:34:07,410 --> 01:34:11,310
they're close to the 350 400 kilometers well

2314
01:34:11,310 --> 01:34:21,190
let's find out okay what the book of

2315
01:34:21,190 --> 01:34:24,690
knowledge is slow today I have to type

2316
01:34:24,690 --> 01:34:27,270
something in I know I know and on

2317
01:34:27,270 --> 01:34:29,070
that phone with those little keyboard is very

2318
01:34:29,070 --> 01:34:33,170
hard I know I'm using the regular I

2319
01:34:33,170 --> 01:34:36,030
know I know there's no threat vector against

2320
01:34:36,030 --> 01:34:38,270
you you're clean man you got no mercenaries

2321
01:34:38,270 --> 01:34:41,950
I like a 342 okay so Amazon's gonna

2322
01:34:41,950 --> 01:34:44,290
be at twice that height which will induce

2323
01:34:44,290 --> 01:34:48,350
latency more just no good doesn't seem like

2324
01:34:48,350 --> 01:34:50,910
it's good but but did you hear that

2325
01:34:50,910 --> 01:34:54,970
8,000 satellites yeah I heard that that's

2326
01:34:54,970 --> 01:34:57,470
a lot man the end and you know

2327
01:34:57,470 --> 01:34:59,730
everyone's also jacked oh yeah soon my t

2328
01:34:59,730 --> 01:35:01,830
-mobile phone will be able to use Starlink

2329
01:35:01,830 --> 01:35:05,910
okay talk about a threat vector all they

2330
01:35:05,910 --> 01:35:07,650
have to do then is just target zoom

2331
01:35:07,650 --> 01:35:15,670
in enhance rotate fire yeah pretty much you'll

2332
01:35:15,670 --> 01:35:18,230
be done no they're gonna first I'll be

2333
01:35:18,230 --> 01:35:21,850
targeting the cartels in Mexico oh yeah oh

2334
01:35:21,850 --> 01:35:24,510
yeah I think we bring back ham radio

2335
01:35:24,510 --> 01:35:27,230
for the kids it was much better you

2336
01:35:27,230 --> 01:35:30,970
know short bursts yep you know and you

2337
01:35:30,970 --> 01:35:32,330
can do it you can push a button

2338
01:35:32,330 --> 01:35:34,610
you can send text messages to each other

2339
01:35:34,610 --> 01:35:37,590
that looks cool you walk around school kids

2340
01:35:37,590 --> 01:35:38,810
would be like yeah the thing on your

2341
01:35:38,810 --> 01:35:40,530
belt yeah make it right make it a

2342
01:35:40,530 --> 01:35:51,310
racket all

2343
01:35:51,310 --> 01:35:52,990
right do you have any do you have

2344
01:35:52,990 --> 01:35:54,690
any more sequences because I have something I

2345
01:35:54,690 --> 01:35:55,790
want to try and roll out and it's

2346
01:35:55,790 --> 01:35:57,170
gonna be difficult and you're gonna hate me

2347
01:35:57,170 --> 01:35:58,450
for it so I want you to get

2348
01:35:58,450 --> 01:35:59,870
whatever you have that you want to get

2349
01:35:59,870 --> 01:36:01,530
out of the way let's do it well

2350
01:36:01,530 --> 01:36:03,330
yeah let's see did I want to play

2351
01:36:03,330 --> 01:36:05,510
some data stuff too from the USDS the

2352
01:36:05,510 --> 01:36:10,570
Department of was data's whatever what the US

2353
01:36:10,570 --> 01:36:13,510
Department of Data Service that's the original name

2354
01:36:13,510 --> 01:36:16,150
for Doge no it this a group of

2355
01:36:16,150 --> 01:36:19,290
well you know yes the United States Digital

2356
01:36:19,290 --> 01:36:23,010
Service that is the original but but they're

2357
01:36:23,010 --> 01:36:25,230
bitching and moaning because they're getting fired and

2358
01:36:25,230 --> 01:36:26,730
they and but they make some good points

2359
01:36:26,730 --> 01:36:29,070
that this is on NPR which is you

2360
01:36:29,070 --> 01:36:31,070
know they're big supporters of the haters of

2361
01:36:31,070 --> 01:36:32,730
Doge and the supporters of everything that's in

2362
01:36:32,730 --> 01:36:35,410
government but this woman makes a good point

2363
01:36:35,410 --> 01:36:37,270
and it's the stuff we talk about and

2364
01:36:37,270 --> 01:36:38,530
I don't know what they're gonna do about

2365
01:36:38,530 --> 01:36:41,810
it Karen Moronsky Chapman never saw her job

2366
01:36:41,810 --> 01:36:43,890
as political she just wanted to make the

2367
01:36:43,890 --> 01:36:46,670
government work a little better I joined USDS

2368
01:36:46,670 --> 01:36:50,310
to help people help American people to deliver

2369
01:36:50,310 --> 01:36:53,950
better services she's a data scientist and for

2370
01:36:53,950 --> 01:36:56,350
the last couple of years Karen's been quietly

2371
01:36:56,350 --> 01:36:58,870
working deep inside the federal government she's a

2372
01:36:58,870 --> 01:37:02,170
little known agency called the United States Digital

2373
01:37:02,170 --> 01:37:05,750
Service or USDS this is her first media

2374
01:37:05,750 --> 01:37:08,390
interview a lot of what I was doing

2375
01:37:08,390 --> 01:37:13,030
was trying to bridge the different data silos

2376
01:37:13,030 --> 01:37:17,910
across government and really just help agencies be

2377
01:37:17,910 --> 01:37:20,670
more efficient and effective by using data to

2378
01:37:20,670 --> 01:37:23,830
inform decisions you can think of the USDS

2379
01:37:23,830 --> 01:37:26,490
as a kind of helpdesk though that would

2380
01:37:26,490 --> 01:37:29,810
be underselling it it's more like helpdesk meets

2381
01:37:29,810 --> 01:37:33,310
SEAL Team 6 kind of special ops team

2382
01:37:33,310 --> 01:37:36,330
for broken websites when federal systems start to

2383
01:37:36,330 --> 01:37:38,930
fall apart it's the USDS that gets the

2384
01:37:38,930 --> 01:37:43,450
call like in the spring of 2024 when

2385
01:37:43,450 --> 01:37:45,590
the Department of Education rolled out its new

2386
01:37:45,590 --> 01:37:49,410
FAFSA application that's the form college students used

2387
01:37:49,410 --> 01:37:52,070
to apply for federal financial aid and last

2388
01:37:52,070 --> 01:37:54,990
spring it broke in a spectacular way the

2389
01:37:54,990 --> 01:37:58,070
Department of Education just found a calculation error

2390
01:37:58,070 --> 01:38:01,410
on hundreds of thousands of student aid applications

2391
01:38:01,410 --> 01:38:05,490
forms failed to upload pages led nowhere students

2392
01:38:05,490 --> 01:38:08,150
born in the year 2000 walked out completely

2393
01:38:08,150 --> 01:38:13,070
it was chaos the FAFSA fiasco was pretty

2394
01:38:13,070 --> 01:38:16,950
on par with like healthcare.gov like it

2395
01:38:16,950 --> 01:38:19,370
was pretty close to being a healthcare.gov

2396
01:38:19,370 --> 01:38:24,270
situation healthcare.gov that was the catastrophic rollout

2397
01:38:24,270 --> 01:38:26,950
of the Affordable Care Act what we call

2398
01:38:26,950 --> 01:38:30,230
Obamacare these days the website to sign up

2399
01:38:30,230 --> 01:38:33,610
crashed just two hours after launch just to

2400
01:38:33,610 --> 01:38:38,010
confirm United States Digital Services was renamed by

2401
01:38:38,010 --> 01:38:40,310
President Trump to Doge and they're using the

2402
01:38:40,310 --> 01:38:43,850
same terms connecting the data silos acting as

2403
01:38:43,850 --> 01:38:45,990
a helpdesk so this is one of the

2404
01:38:45,990 --> 01:38:49,430
unsuccessful data scientists who were there and really

2405
01:38:49,430 --> 01:38:51,570
weren't able to achieve anything except a very

2406
01:38:51,570 --> 01:38:56,090
expensive Obamacare website hold on she's still there

2407
01:38:56,090 --> 01:38:57,970
this is the thing that's weird about this

2408
01:38:57,970 --> 01:39:04,530
story oh wow okay let it go it

2409
01:39:04,530 --> 01:39:06,630
wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it became

2410
01:39:06,630 --> 01:39:10,590
a national embarrassment so disastrous it prompted the

2411
01:39:10,590 --> 01:39:13,610
government to create the USDS to be a

2412
01:39:13,610 --> 01:39:16,410
rescue team for things like this so when

2413
01:39:16,410 --> 01:39:19,290
FAFSA fell apart in 2024 it was Karen

2414
01:39:19,290 --> 01:39:21,930
and her team who stepped in they stabilized

2415
01:39:21,930 --> 01:39:24,770
the site unlocked access and got students the

2416
01:39:24,770 --> 01:39:27,090
aid they needed they've done this kind of

2417
01:39:27,090 --> 01:39:30,870
work for the CDC Social Security education it's

2418
01:39:30,870 --> 01:39:34,130
high stakes high pressure but Karen loved it

2419
01:39:34,130 --> 01:39:36,230
it's really easy to get addicted to this

2420
01:39:36,230 --> 01:39:39,450
work because it's so meaningful there's very few

2421
01:39:39,450 --> 01:39:42,410
roles that you can be positively impacting the

2422
01:39:42,410 --> 01:39:44,070
life of millions if not hundreds of millions

2423
01:39:44,070 --> 01:39:46,550
of people and for a while it felt

2424
01:39:46,550 --> 01:39:49,590
well safe totally immune from the turn of

2425
01:39:49,590 --> 01:39:53,970
politics yeah like technology is not political like

2426
01:39:53,970 --> 01:39:57,210
technology should be nonpartisan it doesn't matter who's

2427
01:39:57,210 --> 01:39:59,290
president I'm here to serve the people but

2428
01:39:59,290 --> 01:40:03,330
I was wrong George has proved that technology

2429
01:40:03,330 --> 01:40:05,450
and its use can be highly partisan the

2430
01:40:05,450 --> 01:40:08,310
Department of Government efficiency is charged with rooting

2431
01:40:08,310 --> 01:40:11,010
out waste fraud and abuse but when it

2432
01:40:11,010 --> 01:40:13,690
made its way to the US Digital Services

2433
01:40:13,690 --> 01:40:16,150
Department it appeared to be taking an agency

2434
01:40:16,150 --> 01:40:19,550
built to protect the government's digital systems and

2435
01:40:19,550 --> 01:40:22,810
started doing just the opposite a good analogy

2436
01:40:22,810 --> 01:40:24,990
is it's like Jenga and at some point

2437
01:40:24,990 --> 01:40:27,450
George is pulling out pieces and something's gonna

2438
01:40:27,450 --> 01:40:30,050
topple and we may not be able to

2439
01:40:30,050 --> 01:40:33,470
put it back wasn't Kara Swisher's ex-wife

2440
01:40:33,470 --> 01:40:35,970
in charge of her for a while Megan

2441
01:40:35,970 --> 01:40:39,070
didn't she go there that I know of

2442
01:40:39,070 --> 01:40:40,810
yeah I think she did I think she

2443
01:40:40,810 --> 01:40:44,230
did and and was it Matt Cutts from

2444
01:40:44,230 --> 01:40:46,010
Google he was there for a while the

2445
01:40:46,010 --> 01:40:48,770
guy who did Google search they had you

2446
01:40:48,770 --> 01:40:50,070
know what they were doing is they were

2447
01:40:50,070 --> 01:40:51,710
mine they were the ones that were mining

2448
01:40:51,710 --> 01:40:55,590
everything getting all the data for Obama that's

2449
01:40:55,590 --> 01:40:57,450
what those guys were doing I remember this

2450
01:40:57,450 --> 01:41:01,430
we talked about it at nauseam ad nauseam

2451
01:41:01,430 --> 01:41:04,530
ad nauseam I tell you so she doesn't

2452
01:41:04,530 --> 01:41:07,690
she doesn't like do doge's doge is weaponizing

2453
01:41:07,690 --> 01:41:13,390
my department is that the story I think

2454
01:41:13,390 --> 01:41:15,250
she lost one of her friends or something

2455
01:41:15,250 --> 01:41:17,630
but to doge you know that I got

2456
01:41:17,630 --> 01:41:22,250
fired I mean I can't really tell but

2457
01:41:22,250 --> 01:41:24,570
but she has a complaint coming up that

2458
01:41:24,570 --> 01:41:26,910
is is valuable I remember when I heard

2459
01:41:26,910 --> 01:41:28,790
that they had right access to Treasury I

2460
01:41:28,790 --> 01:41:30,430
was like oh my gosh like you can

2461
01:41:30,430 --> 01:41:33,850
break things they're not small things trillions of

2462
01:41:33,850 --> 01:41:37,010
dollars worth of things like Social Security and

2463
01:41:37,010 --> 01:41:40,310
tax refunds the majority of folks I see

2464
01:41:40,310 --> 01:41:43,170
having been hired into doge are very junior

2465
01:41:43,170 --> 01:41:46,410
these systems are not going to be anything

2466
01:41:46,410 --> 01:41:49,110
like anything that they have seen before take

2467
01:41:49,110 --> 01:41:51,430
the Social Security system it was built in

2468
01:41:51,430 --> 01:41:54,070
the 60s and 70s and it runs on

2469
01:41:54,070 --> 01:41:57,050
COBOL a programming language that is two or

2470
01:41:57,050 --> 01:41:58,870
even three times older than some of the

2471
01:41:58,870 --> 01:42:01,930
doge staffers they clearly don't understand COBOL when

2472
01:42:01,930 --> 01:42:03,450
they were like oh there's a hundred and

2473
01:42:03,450 --> 01:42:06,990
fifty year olds at Social Security Elon Musk

2474
01:42:06,990 --> 01:42:09,450
talked about that during an interview on Fox.

2475
01:42:09,630 --> 01:42:10,010
The date gamut.

2476
01:42:10,050 --> 01:42:12,770
Pressure examination of Social Security and we've got

2477
01:42:12,770 --> 01:42:14,030
people in there that a hundred and fifty

2478
01:42:14,030 --> 01:42:17,130
years old now do you know anyone that's

2479
01:42:17,130 --> 01:42:20,570
150 I don't okay and Musk said it

2480
01:42:20,570 --> 01:42:24,350
was proof of fraud except Karen says it

2481
01:42:24,350 --> 01:42:26,610
actually wasn't and it's like no that's the

2482
01:42:26,610 --> 01:42:29,110
default date for COBOL like if the field

2483
01:42:29,110 --> 01:42:31,670
is missing just the default date that's why

2484
01:42:31,670 --> 01:42:33,510
there's all these 150 year olds.

2485
01:42:34,350 --> 01:42:36,310
These hundred and fifty year olds weren't getting

2486
01:42:36,310 --> 01:42:38,490
checks they just didn't have a birth date

2487
01:42:38,490 --> 01:42:40,930
in the system and Karen said she would

2488
01:42:40,930 --> 01:42:42,890
have told the doge people as much if

2489
01:42:42,890 --> 01:42:46,310
they'd only asked but they never did they

2490
01:42:46,310 --> 01:42:47,830
just assumed they knew better.

2491
01:42:48,170 --> 01:42:49,790
Well we had that from our dude's name

2492
01:42:49,790 --> 01:42:52,370
Ben the day after this this story broke

2493
01:42:52,370 --> 01:42:54,970
about the 150 year olds now NPR is

2494
01:42:54,970 --> 01:42:58,130
showing up with the story six minutes worth

2495
01:42:58,130 --> 01:42:58,830
of story.

2496
01:42:59,370 --> 01:43:02,710
Yeah this is pretty funny but she does

2497
01:43:02,710 --> 01:43:04,590
the point about COBOL is it is a

2498
01:43:04,590 --> 01:43:06,750
good point but except for one thing that

2499
01:43:06,750 --> 01:43:08,730
I don't know why it hasn't been discussed

2500
01:43:08,730 --> 01:43:09,850
it's not even mentioned.

2501
01:43:09,950 --> 01:43:11,250
You mean why is there no birth date

2502
01:43:11,250 --> 01:43:11,970
for these people?

2503
01:43:12,510 --> 01:43:14,030
No what about COBOL?

2504
01:43:14,630 --> 01:43:16,730
COBOL is not hard to learn any one

2505
01:43:16,730 --> 01:43:19,250
of these guys who are coding in machine

2506
01:43:19,250 --> 01:43:24,010
language or assembler or anything actually can learn

2507
01:43:24,010 --> 01:43:26,230
COBOL it's one of the easiest languages to

2508
01:43:26,230 --> 01:43:28,730
learn why doesn't they just say some junior

2509
01:43:28,730 --> 01:43:30,650
guys I'm gonna learn COBOL it's not a

2510
01:43:30,650 --> 01:43:32,910
big deal that's why it's called a common

2511
01:43:32,910 --> 01:43:35,890
business-oriented language it was designed to be

2512
01:43:35,890 --> 01:43:37,110
used by schmucks.

2513
01:43:37,510 --> 01:43:41,730
COBOL schmoball just use grock baby I'm sure

2514
01:43:41,730 --> 01:43:44,570
grock does a great job at COBOL.

2515
01:43:45,430 --> 01:43:47,550
You're right it's common what was it again

2516
01:43:47,550 --> 01:43:48,370
was the acronym?

2517
01:43:49,010 --> 01:43:52,710
Common business-oriented language.

2518
01:43:52,970 --> 01:43:57,550
Yeah was it relatively simple unsophisticated language.

2519
01:43:58,470 --> 01:44:01,370
Well it's got a sophistication to it but

2520
01:44:01,370 --> 01:44:04,190
it's very it's very I learned it once

2521
01:44:04,190 --> 01:44:06,130
I don't know if I could code in

2522
01:44:06,130 --> 01:44:08,650
it now but it's not a hard it's

2523
01:44:08,650 --> 01:44:10,590
not it's Fortran is harder.

2524
01:44:11,030 --> 01:44:13,050
Like COBOL is for schmucks that is a

2525
01:44:13,050 --> 01:44:14,790
t-shirt or a bumper sticker right there.

2526
01:44:15,250 --> 01:44:17,050
I mean it's not you don't have to

2527
01:44:17,050 --> 01:44:20,690
be a genius to code COBOL that's the

2528
01:44:20,690 --> 01:44:21,070
point.

2529
01:44:21,430 --> 01:44:23,750
Yeah but I'm still stuck on how come

2530
01:44:23,750 --> 01:44:25,830
there are so many records in the system

2531
01:44:25,830 --> 01:44:27,430
where they don't have a birth date what

2532
01:44:27,430 --> 01:44:29,370
kind of system are you running over there?

2533
01:44:30,450 --> 01:44:31,390
Well there's that.

2534
01:44:32,650 --> 01:44:35,570
All right so since you broach the money

2535
01:44:35,570 --> 01:44:38,410
topic with the Treasury there I'm going to

2536
01:44:38,410 --> 01:44:41,590
attempt and I may fail and I hope

2537
01:44:41,590 --> 01:44:42,630
you give me some grace.

2538
01:44:43,170 --> 01:44:43,590
No.

2539
01:44:47,330 --> 01:44:49,290
I hope you give me some grace.

2540
01:44:49,530 --> 01:44:51,550
This is this is this preliminary stuff you're

2541
01:44:51,550 --> 01:44:53,970
doing right now is already setting up the

2542
01:44:53,970 --> 01:44:54,410
wall.

2543
01:44:56,810 --> 01:44:59,390
I think I can explain the stable coin

2544
01:44:59,390 --> 01:44:59,930
gambit.

2545
01:45:00,650 --> 01:45:02,350
Oh I don't know if you can I

2546
01:45:02,350 --> 01:45:04,070
mean I don't this is gonna bore people

2547
01:45:04,070 --> 01:45:04,570
stiff.

2548
01:45:06,950 --> 01:45:09,450
Well I mean would you rather play tik

2549
01:45:09,450 --> 01:45:10,330
-tok clips instead?

2550
01:45:10,630 --> 01:45:11,070
I mean I did.

2551
01:45:11,190 --> 01:45:14,810
I would actually yes but but but if

2552
01:45:14,810 --> 01:45:16,370
you want to make the attempt I don't

2553
01:45:16,370 --> 01:45:18,110
know why you want to do this.

2554
01:45:18,810 --> 01:45:22,150
Because it's after the you want to do

2555
01:45:22,150 --> 01:45:23,630
it after the donation segment?

2556
01:45:23,910 --> 01:45:25,350
No why would we do it after the

2557
01:45:25,350 --> 01:45:26,290
donation segment?

2558
01:45:27,010 --> 01:45:28,570
Okay I'll do it all right I'll do

2559
01:45:28,570 --> 01:45:29,490
it after the donation.

2560
01:45:29,650 --> 01:45:31,150
No I'm just saying that because it's gonna

2561
01:45:31,150 --> 01:45:32,350
give us a low count.

2562
01:45:32,510 --> 01:45:33,450
No I'll do it after.

2563
01:45:35,010 --> 01:45:38,610
All right this is attention but then if

2564
01:45:38,610 --> 01:45:40,690
I do it after the donation segment you

2565
01:45:40,690 --> 01:45:43,510
can't grouse and go crap until the very

2566
01:45:43,510 --> 01:45:43,870
end.

2567
01:45:46,200 --> 01:45:48,060
Oh I'll save it yeah I can save

2568
01:45:48,060 --> 01:45:48,200
it.

2569
01:45:48,420 --> 01:45:48,920
Okay yeah.

2570
01:45:49,100 --> 01:45:50,680
But how many clips are we talking about

2571
01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:50,860
here?

2572
01:45:50,920 --> 01:45:52,060
You make it sound like it's gonna be

2573
01:45:52,060 --> 01:45:55,060
a half-hour presentation on stable coin.

2574
01:45:55,220 --> 01:45:57,560
No I think it's probably about 17 minutes.

2575
01:45:58,100 --> 01:45:59,440
Oh my god.

2576
01:45:59,820 --> 01:46:02,480
Well it might it will affect it affects

2577
01:46:02,480 --> 01:46:03,580
world affairs.

2578
01:46:07,200 --> 01:46:10,120
I'm just saying it will affect world affairs

2579
01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:11,860
and we have to learn things about what

2580
01:46:11,860 --> 01:46:12,740
is a euro dollar.

2581
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:15,160
Do you know what a euro dollar is?

2582
01:46:17,060 --> 01:46:18,080
No I don't.

2583
01:46:18,220 --> 01:46:18,960
We hear it all the time.

2584
01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:19,440
I can look it up.

2585
01:46:20,020 --> 01:46:21,860
It's easier to look it up seems to

2586
01:46:21,860 --> 01:46:22,040
me.

2587
01:46:22,160 --> 01:46:22,920
I'll look it up.

2588
01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:24,780
Yeah okay well you do that you look

2589
01:46:24,780 --> 01:46:27,020
it up and then I'll play some m5m

2590
01:46:27,020 --> 01:46:29,540
news to entertain everybody to keep them listening

2591
01:46:29,540 --> 01:46:31,520
until we get to the donation segment.

2592
01:46:31,740 --> 01:46:34,460
Oh chills this morning anticipation is building for

2593
01:46:34,460 --> 01:46:36,120
new music from one of the greatest voices

2594
01:46:36,120 --> 01:46:37,360
of all time.

2595
01:46:37,540 --> 01:46:40,600
Yes eight-time Grammy winner Barbra Streisand announced

2596
01:46:40,600 --> 01:46:42,820
this morning she is dropping a brand new

2597
01:46:42,820 --> 01:46:42,980
album.

2598
01:46:43,340 --> 01:46:45,380
And we just heard a sneak peek of

2599
01:46:45,380 --> 01:46:47,880
the first single called first time ever I

2600
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:49,740
saw your face the new record is called

2601
01:46:49,740 --> 01:46:52,820
the secret of life partners volume 2.

2602
01:46:53,340 --> 01:46:54,980
By the way stop the clip for a

2603
01:46:54,980 --> 01:46:55,240
second.

2604
01:46:55,860 --> 01:46:57,020
This is around pet peeves.

2605
01:46:58,180 --> 01:47:00,700
Why don't they use the term like you

2606
01:47:00,700 --> 01:47:03,840
always use in the past release yes release

2607
01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:06,060
you're gonna release a new album instead of

2608
01:47:06,060 --> 01:47:07,420
she's gonna drop an album.

2609
01:47:08,420 --> 01:47:10,100
Well that's supposed to be hip or something.

2610
01:47:10,720 --> 01:47:12,460
That's what the kids are talking about man

2611
01:47:12,460 --> 01:47:15,320
you drop an album and by the way

2612
01:47:15,320 --> 01:47:17,240
they they're so hip they call the Hoosiers

2613
01:47:17,240 --> 01:47:19,040
the Hoziers which is kind of cool.

2614
01:47:19,620 --> 01:47:20,080
The Hozier?

2615
01:47:20,780 --> 01:47:23,460
It's a sequel to her 2014 platinum certified

2616
01:47:23,460 --> 01:47:25,400
album and it's been more than a decade

2617
01:47:25,400 --> 01:47:26,100
in the works.

2618
01:47:26,340 --> 01:47:27,980
She collaborated on the album with some of

2619
01:47:27,980 --> 01:47:30,160
the best in the business including Bob Dylan

2620
01:47:30,160 --> 01:47:31,100
Paul McCartney.

2621
01:47:32,060 --> 01:47:34,140
First off two dead guys right at the

2622

McCartney's alive?

2625
01:47:38,580 --> 01:47:39,140
Barely.

2626
01:47:39,820 --> 01:47:40,500
Including Bob Dylan.

And Dylan's alive.

2629
01:47:43,820 --> 01:47:46,160
Dylan's barely alive and we all know John

2630
01:47:46,160 --> 01:47:46,820

I'm looking forward to that whoo a new

2638
01:48:01,480 --> 01:48:03,100

No she's not.

2640
01:48:03,960 --> 01:48:04,720
It's dropped.

2641
01:48:05,220 --> 01:48:05,800
It's dropped.

2642
01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:07,320
Pick it up.

2643
01:48:07,380 --> 01:48:07,880
It's dropped.

2644
01:48:09,460 --> 01:48:11,440
Who saw this coming everybody?

2645
01:48:11,860 --> 01:48:13,260
On the medical watch for you this afternoon

2646
01:48:13,260 --> 01:48:15,720
a newly found impact of vaccines on women.

2647
01:48:15,860 --> 01:48:17,980
Medical reporter Dina Baer is here to explain

2648
01:48:17,980 --> 01:48:18,260
Dina.

2649
01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:20,740
Lourdes and Ben vaccines for the flu and

2650
01:48:20,740 --> 01:48:23,000
COVID can alter the menstrual cycle.

2651
01:48:23,240 --> 01:48:25,540
It's not a permanent impact but for women

2652
01:48:25,540 --> 01:48:27,800
who have a regular cycle getting a flu

2653
01:48:27,800 --> 01:48:30,280
shot or a COVID vaccine changed the length

2654
01:48:30,280 --> 01:48:31,140
of the cycle.

2655
01:48:31,740 --> 01:48:35,880
Multiple studies confirm menstrual disturbances following vaccines.

2656
01:48:36,220 --> 01:48:38,320
Now the Journal of the American Medical Association

2657
01:48:38,320 --> 01:48:40,780
confirms concerns expressed by women.

2658
01:48:41,320 --> 01:48:43,160
Experts say there's no need to worry the

2659
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,780
cycle returns to normal and there shouldn't be

2660
01:48:45,780 --> 01:48:48,360
a reason for vaccine hesitancy based on the

2661
01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:49,640
menstrual cycle impact.

2662
01:48:49,880 --> 01:48:52,740
We hammered this during COVID.

2663
01:48:53,580 --> 01:48:54,640
Yep yep yep.

2664
01:48:55,060 --> 01:48:56,860
And we got excoriated for it.

2665
01:48:56,920 --> 01:48:57,680
It's bullcrap.

2666
01:48:57,740 --> 01:49:00,560
I did specifically.

2667
01:49:01,200 --> 01:49:02,640
We had a lot of people angry and

2668
01:49:02,640 --> 01:49:04,020
they all came back said I'm sorry you

2669
01:49:04,020 --> 01:49:04,500
were right.

2670
01:49:05,180 --> 01:49:06,200
It interrupted.

2671
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:07,580
It disrupted.

2672
01:49:08,060 --> 01:49:09,420
It increased flow.

2673
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:13,780
It became irregular like awesome like crazy flow.

2674
01:49:14,480 --> 01:49:16,500
Yeah the nurses were reporting it.

2675
01:49:16,500 --> 01:49:18,740
But don't worry there's nothing to worry about.

2676
01:49:18,860 --> 01:49:20,840
Nothing to worry about at all.

2677
01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:21,720
Don't worry about it.

2678
01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:24,460
These people are ghouls.

2679
01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:26,920
And who saw this coming?

2680
01:49:27,700 --> 01:49:30,040
Researchers at the University of Virginia say a

2681
01:49:30,040 --> 01:49:32,120
new study has proven safe and effective.

2682
01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:35,440
Whoa safe and effective you know that's gonna

2683
01:49:35,440 --> 01:49:36,140
be a doozy.

2684
01:49:36,320 --> 01:49:37,460
This time I actually believe it.

2685
01:49:37,620 --> 01:49:40,880
Safe and effective at desensitizing children to peanut

2686
01:49:40,880 --> 01:49:41,320
allergy.

2687
01:49:41,420 --> 01:49:44,780
Yeah UVA Health children's researchers tested children by

2688
01:49:44,780 --> 01:49:47,340
giving them increased doses of peanut protein.

2689
01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:49,260
Now by the end of the study all

2690
01:49:49,260 --> 01:49:52,720
27 children were able to eat 500 milligrams

2691
01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:54,340
of peanut protein daily.

2692
01:49:54,760 --> 01:49:57,260
Eight children are now freely eating peanuts.

2693
01:49:57,700 --> 01:50:00,860
Researchers are calling for larger clinical trials to

2694
01:50:00,860 --> 01:50:03,180
advance what could be a game-changing new

2695
01:50:03,180 --> 01:50:05,940
treatment for peanut allergies in young children.

2696
01:50:06,260 --> 01:50:07,220
Oh go figure.

2697
01:50:07,560 --> 01:50:09,700
For years we've been oh you can't have

2698
01:50:09,700 --> 01:50:11,140
any peanuts near my child.

2699
01:50:11,220 --> 01:50:12,320
My child was no good.

2700
01:50:12,800 --> 01:50:14,300
Whereas if you just expose the kid to

2701
01:50:14,300 --> 01:50:16,640
peanuts it turns out they're okay.

2702
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:20,480
Well they were never exposed young enough that's

2703
01:50:20,480 --> 01:50:21,680
always been the issue.

2704
01:50:22,120 --> 01:50:24,220
Yes it's like so obvious.

2705
01:50:27,480 --> 01:50:28,000
People.

2706
01:50:28,580 --> 01:50:30,260
Where's Bobby the op in all of this?

2707
01:50:30,820 --> 01:50:31,660
Yeah that's what I like.

2708
01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:33,160
Where's the Epstein files?

2709
01:50:33,520 --> 01:50:36,920
Yeah I got some super cuts that'll round

2710
01:50:36,920 --> 01:50:37,260
it out.

2711
01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:39,120
Okay super cuts are always good.

2712
01:50:39,300 --> 01:50:40,220
I'm glad you have them.

2713
01:50:40,300 --> 01:50:41,860
Yo you have three holy crap.

2714
01:50:42,560 --> 01:50:44,440
Yeah because I'm they're leading up to the

2715
01:50:44,440 --> 01:50:47,180
current super cut that's floating around after chaos

2716
01:50:47,180 --> 01:50:49,240
and threat to democracy.

2717
01:50:49,480 --> 01:50:50,380
We have a couple of here.

2718
01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:51,300
We have the moment.

2719
01:50:51,580 --> 01:50:52,680
This one was a flop.

2720
01:50:53,020 --> 01:50:53,920
The strength that we have.

2721
01:50:54,020 --> 01:50:54,320
Sorry.

2722
01:50:54,940 --> 01:50:56,000
Is the moment flop?

2723
01:50:56,340 --> 01:50:58,120
The strength that we have is in this

2724
01:50:58,120 --> 01:50:58,460
moment.

2725
01:50:58,800 --> 01:51:00,340
Listen to your constituents.

2726
01:51:01,240 --> 01:51:03,160
Center them in this moment.

2727
01:51:03,420 --> 01:51:05,080
But I can tell you that there are

2728
01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:06,440
a lot of people that are watching his

2729
01:51:06,440 --> 01:51:08,340
leadership in this moment.

2730
01:51:08,460 --> 01:51:09,340
This is the moment.

2731
01:51:09,480 --> 01:51:11,920
No I think about what's happening you know

2732
01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:12,660
in this moment.

2733
01:51:12,660 --> 01:51:15,720
What's important is that we meet this moment.

2734
01:51:16,340 --> 01:51:18,840
So are these current Democrats the ones to

2735
01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:19,740
meet the moment?

2736
01:51:20,220 --> 01:51:22,640
What do you want to see us doing

2737
01:51:22,640 --> 01:51:24,120
right now in this moment?

2738
01:51:24,540 --> 01:51:27,640
And which Democrats are actually going to stand

2739
01:51:27,640 --> 01:51:31,460
up against Elon Musk and Donald Trump in

2740
01:51:31,460 --> 01:51:32,040
this moment?

2741
01:51:32,180 --> 01:51:34,220
The fight that you all are exhibiting is

2742
01:51:34,220 --> 01:51:37,060
not just what the base wants but it's

2743
01:51:37,060 --> 01:51:38,260
what this moment requires.

2744
01:51:38,980 --> 01:51:40,900
The strength that we have is in this

2745
01:51:40,900 --> 01:51:41,220
moment.

2746
01:51:42,080 --> 01:51:44,080
Well by the way I think we hit

2747
01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:45,260
we played this one already.

2748
01:51:46,420 --> 01:51:47,300
In fact I'm pretty sure.

2749
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:49,920
Yeah this next one might be.

2750
01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:51,380
You talking about this one or the next

2751
01:51:51,380 --> 01:51:51,560
one?

2752
01:51:51,600 --> 01:51:52,760
No the in this moment.

2753
01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:54,280
We played the in this moment.

2754
01:51:54,420 --> 01:51:55,040
But it was a flop.

2755
01:51:55,140 --> 01:51:56,340
Just the idea is that they were just

2756
01:51:56,340 --> 01:51:59,200
repeating this is a flop that never worked

2757
01:51:59,200 --> 01:51:59,640
out.

2758
01:51:59,740 --> 01:52:00,520
Yep that's a flop.

2759
01:52:00,680 --> 01:52:03,280
And then we had the threat to democracy.

2760
01:52:03,600 --> 01:52:05,300
We had the chaos which I don't have.

2761
01:52:05,380 --> 01:52:06,780
I mean those are also super cuts they

2762
01:52:06,780 --> 01:52:07,160
don't have.

2763
01:52:07,160 --> 01:52:09,480
But then we have the social media dangerous

2764
01:52:09,480 --> 01:52:12,500
series which we I think may have played

2765
01:52:12,500 --> 01:52:14,180
but this is another version of it because

2766
01:52:14,180 --> 01:52:17,400
it's got the the the annoying overlays.

2767
01:52:17,900 --> 01:52:20,680
But this is another example of something that

2768
01:52:20,680 --> 01:52:24,500
was they they they push this stuff out

2769
01:52:24,500 --> 01:52:25,960
trying to I don't know if they're looking

2770
01:52:25,960 --> 01:52:27,720
for it to catch hold or I would

2771
01:52:27,720 --> 01:52:29,320
say these are ineffective.

2772
01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:32,840
Hi I'm Fox San Antonio's Jessica Hedley.

2773
01:52:33,060 --> 01:52:33,800
And I'm Ryan Wolf.

2774
01:52:33,940 --> 01:52:36,720
Our greatest responsibility is to serve our Treasure

2775
01:52:36,720 --> 01:52:37,520
Valley communities.

2776
01:52:37,740 --> 01:52:39,440
The El Paso Las Cruces communities.

2777
01:52:39,660 --> 01:52:41,060
Eastern Iowa communities.

2778
01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:42,200
Mid-Michigan communities.

2779
01:52:42,580 --> 01:52:45,000
We are extremely proud of the quality balanced

2780
01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:47,140
journalism that CBS 4 News produces.

2781
01:52:48,100 --> 01:52:49,800
But we are concerned about the quality of

2782
01:52:49,800 --> 01:52:54,880
the news stories that are plaguing our country.

2783
01:52:55,180 --> 01:52:57,480
The sharing of biased and false news has

2784
01:52:57,480 --> 01:52:59,760
become all too common on social media.

2785
01:53:00,180 --> 01:53:03,000
More alarming some media outlets publish these same

2786
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:05,440
fake stories without checking facts first.

2787
01:53:05,640 --> 01:53:08,220
The sharing of biased and false news has

2788
01:53:08,220 --> 01:53:10,540
become all too common on social media.

2789
01:53:10,740 --> 01:53:14,220
More alarming some media outlets publish these same

2790
01:53:14,220 --> 01:53:17,620
fake stories without checking facts first.

2791
01:53:17,960 --> 01:53:20,560
Unfortunately some members of the media use their

2792
01:53:20,560 --> 01:53:23,600
platforms to push their own personal bias and

2793
01:53:23,600 --> 01:53:26,640
agenda to control exactly what people think.

2794
01:53:26,700 --> 01:53:29,220
And this is extremely dangerous to our democracy.

2795
01:54:09,240 --> 01:54:10,820
Yeah, I'm going to use these.

2796
01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:13,220
I'm speaking to the high school class.

2797
01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:16,020
Yeah, you should definitely use that one.

2798
01:54:16,040 --> 01:54:16,600
About propaganda.

2799
01:54:16,860 --> 01:54:17,980
Yeah, I'm going to show this to them.

2800
01:54:17,980 --> 01:54:20,080
Yeah, and it's like, it's an embarrassment.

2801
01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:22,480
But they continue, and this is the latest

2802
01:54:22,480 --> 01:54:22,700
one.

2803
01:54:22,760 --> 01:54:23,980
I think this is pretty new.

2804
01:54:24,080 --> 01:54:25,100
This one I have not seen.

2805
01:54:25,100 --> 01:54:26,940
This is the escalation.

2806
01:54:27,380 --> 01:54:29,840
They're trying to get this into the mainstream

2807
01:54:29,840 --> 01:54:33,200
thinking that, you know, Trump's escalation.

2808
01:54:33,300 --> 01:54:34,000
I don't know why.

2809
01:54:34,200 --> 01:54:35,660
Is that a bad term?

2810
01:54:35,740 --> 01:54:37,400
Or they're trying to equate it with the

2811
01:54:37,400 --> 01:54:38,440
Soviet Union?

2812
01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:42,260
I'm not sure, but they're trying to get

2813
01:54:42,260 --> 01:54:43,480
this word in there.

2814
01:54:43,600 --> 01:54:45,400
And it's all the same jerks.

2815
01:54:46,020 --> 01:54:48,340
We begin tonight with the escalation in the

2816
01:54:48,340 --> 01:54:50,500
president's crackdown on illegal immigration.

2817
01:54:50,500 --> 01:54:54,140
Today's dramatic escalation in the Trump administration's conflict

2818
01:54:54,140 --> 01:54:55,400
with judges.

2819
01:54:55,540 --> 01:54:58,160
The Trump administration signaling a major escalation in

2820
01:54:58,160 --> 01:54:59,280
its deportation efforts.

2821
01:54:59,500 --> 01:55:02,920
Today, an escalation in the Trump administration's battle

2822
01:55:02,920 --> 01:55:03,740
with the judiciary.

2823
01:55:04,100 --> 01:55:07,500
Tensions between local and federal authorities over President

2824
01:55:07,500 --> 01:55:10,500
Trump's immigration crackdown escalated today.

2825
01:55:10,680 --> 01:55:12,980
We begin this hour with a major escalation

2826
01:55:12,980 --> 01:55:15,560
of the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration.

2827
01:55:15,560 --> 01:55:17,380
We begin with what appears to be a

2828
01:55:17,380 --> 01:55:21,020
major escalation in the Trump administration's deportation efforts.

2829
01:55:21,400 --> 01:55:23,300
And what is a major escalation in the

2830
01:55:23,300 --> 01:55:25,700
battle here in D.C. over immigration and

2831
01:55:25,700 --> 01:55:26,520
deportation?

2832
01:55:26,680 --> 01:55:30,320
This feels like an insane and reckless escalation

2833
01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:32,600
from the Trump administration arresting a judge.

2834
01:55:32,760 --> 01:55:34,200
I will tell you, you are not alone.

2835
01:55:34,340 --> 01:55:35,820
This is a dramatic escalation.

2836
01:55:35,920 --> 01:55:38,600
More aggressive moves, more escalation.

2837
01:55:38,680 --> 01:55:41,680
Trump's escalation of his migrant purge.

2838
01:55:41,760 --> 01:55:43,660
This kind of escalatory action.

2839
01:55:43,660 --> 01:55:46,040
This is a dramatic escalation.

2840
01:55:49,660 --> 01:55:51,620
We see an immigration escalation.

2841
01:55:51,880 --> 01:55:52,820
An escalation.

2842
01:55:53,340 --> 01:55:55,260
Wow, that's a good one.

2843
01:55:55,360 --> 01:55:56,720
I'm going to give you a borderline for

2844
01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:56,980
that.

2845
01:55:57,080 --> 01:55:58,400
That was dynamite.

2846
01:55:59,500 --> 01:56:00,160
Borderline.

2847
01:56:00,520 --> 01:56:02,840
That was good.

2848
01:56:04,240 --> 01:56:04,900
Escalation.

2849
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:08,040
I need the whole Sharpton thing.

2850
01:56:08,380 --> 01:56:11,160
This escalation of Trump.

2851
01:56:11,640 --> 01:56:12,800
The escalation.

2852
01:56:13,720 --> 01:56:14,560
I love him.

2853
01:56:14,820 --> 01:56:17,200
Call it a migrant purge.

2854
01:56:17,980 --> 01:56:18,300
Nice.

2855
01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:20,880
Migrant purge.

2856
01:56:21,460 --> 01:56:23,560
And with that escalation, I'd like to say

2857
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:25,120
in the morning to you, the man who

2858
01:56:25,120 --> 01:56:27,240
put the sea in the unclippable wench, say

2859
01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:28,500
hello to my friend on the other end,

2860
01:56:28,540 --> 01:56:30,740
the one, the only, Mr. John C.

2861
01:56:31,300 --> 01:56:31,620
DeVore.

2862
01:56:35,880 --> 01:56:37,320
Hi, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

2863
01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:37,540
Crane.

2864
01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:38,460
In the morning, I ship the sea of

2865
01:56:38,460 --> 01:56:39,780
Buddhists on the ground, feeding the air subs

2866
01:56:39,780 --> 01:56:41,160
in the water to the dames and knights

2867
01:56:41,160 --> 01:56:41,600
out there.

2868
01:56:41,600 --> 01:56:42,780
In the morning to you, the trolls in

2869
01:56:42,780 --> 01:56:43,380
the troll room.

2870
01:56:43,560 --> 01:56:44,800
Hold on a second.

2871
01:56:46,140 --> 01:56:48,600
Well, I don't know, man.

2872
01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:51,700
I think your supercut chased everybody away.

2873
01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:52,580
1880.

2874
01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:55,560
I think the threat of your...

2875
01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:56,700
Oh, hold on.

2876
01:56:56,840 --> 01:56:57,420
Oh, no.

2877
01:56:57,600 --> 01:56:59,760
Oh, right away, we lose the...

2878
01:56:59,760 --> 01:57:00,440
Right away.

2879
01:57:00,540 --> 01:57:01,280
Hold on a second.

2880
01:57:03,750 --> 01:57:04,410
That's crazy.

2881
01:57:04,570 --> 01:57:04,850
Right away.

2882
01:57:04,910 --> 01:57:08,750
The minute you started talking, it switched interfaces

2883
01:57:08,750 --> 01:57:09,230
again.

2884
01:57:09,650 --> 01:57:11,390
Oh, can you hear me now?

2885
01:57:11,450 --> 01:57:12,170
I can hear you now.

2886
01:57:12,170 --> 01:57:12,630
I hear you.

2887
01:57:12,690 --> 01:57:13,370
Can you hear me now?

2888
01:57:13,450 --> 01:57:14,170
I hear you now.

2889
01:57:14,490 --> 01:57:15,250
You sound great.

2890
01:57:15,930 --> 01:57:17,210
I don't know what that is.

2891
01:57:17,510 --> 01:57:17,790
I don't know.

2892
01:57:17,830 --> 01:57:19,070
Something's triggering it.

2893
01:57:19,430 --> 01:57:19,790
What?

2894
01:57:21,770 --> 01:57:23,750
The question is, what's triggering it?

2895
01:57:24,790 --> 01:57:25,190
Something.

2896
01:57:26,310 --> 01:57:28,190
Anyway, 1880 is the count on the trolls

2897
01:57:28,190 --> 01:57:30,690
in the troll room, trollroom.io, and that

2898
01:57:30,690 --> 01:57:31,830
is where you can go to listen to

2899
01:57:31,830 --> 01:57:32,590
the show live.

2900
01:57:32,670 --> 01:57:34,650
We've been doing it live for a long

2901
01:57:34,650 --> 01:57:35,010
time.

2902
01:57:35,250 --> 01:57:37,390
We are in our 18th year, and the

2903
01:57:37,390 --> 01:57:38,310
troll room is fun.

2904
01:57:38,310 --> 01:57:40,310
It's ephemeral because you can go in there

2905
01:57:40,310 --> 01:57:42,850
and go, troll whatever, and it just scrolls

2906
01:57:42,850 --> 01:57:44,850
right off, and it doesn't matter.

2907
01:57:45,050 --> 01:57:46,590
Then you're just shouting into the void.

2908
01:57:46,750 --> 01:57:48,130
It doesn't really make any difference.

2909
01:57:48,570 --> 01:57:49,890
So get it out of your system in

2910
01:57:49,890 --> 01:57:51,330
the troll room and listen to us live

2911
01:57:51,330 --> 01:57:54,130
at trollroom.io or get a modern podcast

2912
01:57:54,130 --> 01:57:54,550
app.

2913
01:57:54,750 --> 01:57:56,110
I really do recommend it.

2914
01:57:56,190 --> 01:57:57,730
By the way, I think we talked about

2915
01:57:57,730 --> 01:58:02,630
pocket casts last time, and so there's now

2916
01:58:02,630 --> 01:58:05,950
definitive answer from Apple that the donate button

2917
01:58:05,950 --> 01:58:07,730
in the app is okay.

2918
01:58:08,950 --> 01:58:10,630
So everybody is now doing this.

2919
01:58:10,710 --> 01:58:14,350
They're adding the donut, the donate button into

2920
01:58:14,350 --> 01:58:14,970
their apps.

2921
01:58:15,630 --> 01:58:17,510
Apple said it's okay, so it's okay?

2922
01:58:17,850 --> 01:58:18,250
Yes.

2923
01:58:18,250 --> 01:58:19,050
Is that the way this works?

2924
01:58:19,430 --> 01:58:19,830
Yes.

2925
01:58:19,950 --> 01:58:21,890
If it's not okay, then, oh, you have

2926
01:58:21,890 --> 01:58:24,010
to use Apple Pay, and we take 30%.

2927
01:58:25,050 --> 01:58:25,970
Don't you understand?

2928
01:58:26,390 --> 01:58:28,210
Oh, I see what you're talking about.

2929
01:58:28,210 --> 01:58:30,130
This has always been the problem, and the

2930
01:58:30,130 --> 01:58:32,410
app developers have always been afraid, like, oh,

2931
01:58:32,450 --> 01:58:34,050
man, my app will get rejected if I

2932
01:58:34,050 --> 01:58:34,890
put this in there.

2933
01:58:35,590 --> 01:58:35,950
No.

2934
01:58:36,370 --> 01:58:36,730
No.

2935
01:58:36,730 --> 01:58:38,350
You can put it in there, and it's

2936
01:58:38,350 --> 01:58:39,550
great because then people are listening.

2937
01:58:39,690 --> 01:58:41,870
Oh, I should support these guys.

2938
01:58:42,030 --> 01:58:43,330
Let me just look at my app that

2939
01:58:43,330 --> 01:58:44,010
I'm already using.

2940
01:58:44,110 --> 01:58:44,390
Click.

2941
01:58:44,510 --> 01:58:44,830
Boom.

2942
01:58:45,690 --> 01:58:47,990
You can support us as part of our

2943
01:58:47,990 --> 01:58:49,510
value for value method.

2944
01:58:50,370 --> 01:58:52,890
By the way, troublemakers abound.

2945
01:58:54,250 --> 01:58:58,490
We got an AI-generated note from Mel

2946
01:58:58,490 --> 01:58:59,970
Cooley, executive producer.

2947
01:59:00,090 --> 01:59:00,890
Did you see this?

2948
01:59:01,510 --> 01:59:01,710
No.

2949
01:59:01,710 --> 01:59:04,770
An AI review of our show.

2950
01:59:05,970 --> 01:59:08,550
Urgent content review and advertiser feedback.

2951
01:59:10,090 --> 01:59:11,650
I think I did see this.

2952
01:59:11,770 --> 01:59:12,830
I didn't look at it, though.

2953
01:59:13,410 --> 01:59:15,330
Gentlemen, this memo requires your immediate attention.

2954
01:59:15,470 --> 01:59:18,030
Following the broadcast of Episode 1759, we have

2955
01:59:18,030 --> 01:59:20,670
received deeply concerning feedback from our key advertisers.

2956
01:59:21,110 --> 01:59:23,270
The response has been negative and frankly threatens

2957
01:59:23,270 --> 01:59:24,690
our financial stability.

2958
01:59:25,310 --> 01:59:28,250
Specifically, advertisers have cited the following issues as

2959
01:59:28,250 --> 01:59:30,410
problematic and potentially brand damaging.

2960
01:59:30,930 --> 01:59:34,290
The give on Asian media assassination tagline.

2961
01:59:34,390 --> 01:59:35,070
Did we use that?

2962
01:59:35,990 --> 01:59:36,530
I don't remember that.

2963
01:59:36,530 --> 01:59:37,710
I don't know what you're talking about.

2964
01:59:37,750 --> 01:59:38,310
I don't know either.

2965
01:59:38,410 --> 01:59:40,750
This was flagged immediately as insensitive and potentially

2966
01:59:40,750 --> 01:59:41,250
offensive.

2967
01:59:41,990 --> 01:59:44,530
The lengthy and seemingly unfocused segments.

2968
01:59:44,890 --> 01:59:46,630
Did I get this email or not?

2969
01:59:46,630 --> 01:59:47,250
No, I don't think so.

2970
01:59:47,270 --> 01:59:47,630
I don't remember it.

2971
01:59:47,790 --> 01:59:53,010
So AI analyzed our show, 1759, as an

2972
01:59:53,010 --> 01:59:54,710
advertiser, and they hate it.

2973
01:59:55,530 --> 01:59:57,610
Several advertisers noted the extended period.

2974
01:59:58,150 --> 01:59:59,890
That proves our complete point.

2975
01:59:59,890 --> 02:00:00,450
Yes.

2976
02:00:00,730 --> 02:00:01,770
I'll read a few more.

2977
02:00:02,410 --> 02:00:05,070
Several advertisers noted the extended period dedicated to

2978
02:00:05,070 --> 02:00:07,210
topics like the Pope's funeral and the minutiae

2979
02:00:07,210 --> 02:00:08,190
of online hoaxes.

2980
02:00:08,570 --> 02:00:10,590
They feel the show lacked a clear through

2981
02:00:10,590 --> 02:00:13,510
line, at times meandering, losing audience engagement, and

2982
02:00:13,510 --> 02:00:16,030
by extension, the value of their placements.

2983
02:00:17,270 --> 02:00:19,250
The tapping me along discussion.

2984
02:00:19,670 --> 02:00:22,730
While intended as analysis, the extended speculation on

2985
02:00:22,730 --> 02:00:24,090
Trump's ambiguous phrasing.

2986
02:00:24,210 --> 02:00:26,150
Oh, by the way, that's interesting they brought

2987
02:00:26,150 --> 02:00:26,510
that up.

2988
02:00:26,530 --> 02:00:26,750
Yep.

2989
02:00:27,190 --> 02:00:28,550
Because we know what it means.

2990
02:00:28,550 --> 02:00:30,070
Well, there's two versions.

2991
02:00:30,910 --> 02:00:32,690
Well, the version I believe to be the

2992
02:00:32,690 --> 02:00:34,870
correct version is the golfing one.

2993
02:00:34,970 --> 02:00:35,910
Yes, I agree.

2994
02:00:36,070 --> 02:00:37,030
I think that's the right one.

2995
02:00:37,250 --> 02:00:37,890
Because he's a golfer.

2996
02:00:38,190 --> 02:00:38,490
Yes.

2997
02:00:39,010 --> 02:00:41,150
Tapping along as a golf term.

2998
02:00:41,850 --> 02:00:43,670
Tapping, you know, putt, putt, putt, tapping the

2999
02:00:43,670 --> 02:00:44,970
ball along slowly.

3000
02:00:45,130 --> 02:00:48,210
There is a second one, however, from producer

3001
02:00:48,210 --> 02:00:48,650
Andy.

3002
02:00:48,650 --> 02:00:53,010
He says, in a pig slaughterhouse, there's a

3003
02:00:53,010 --> 02:00:55,170
guy who uses a rattle attached to a

3004
02:00:55,170 --> 02:00:57,410
broomstick to keep the pigs moving into their

3005
02:00:57,410 --> 02:01:00,250
final destination by tapping it on the floor

3006
02:01:00,250 --> 02:01:00,970
behind them.

3007
02:01:01,350 --> 02:01:02,210
Yeah, I don't think that's it.

3008
02:01:02,290 --> 02:01:02,930
I like it, though.

3009
02:01:03,150 --> 02:01:04,390
I like the visual.

3010
02:01:04,490 --> 02:01:05,330
I like the visual.

3011
02:01:05,510 --> 02:01:07,230
But I'm glad that the AI picked it

3012
02:01:07,230 --> 02:01:07,510
up.

3013
02:01:07,930 --> 02:01:10,070
Because they picked it up as boring.

3014
02:01:10,230 --> 02:01:10,930
Yes, boring.

3015
02:01:11,690 --> 02:01:13,430
Now, wait, let's back off for a second.

3016
02:01:13,530 --> 02:01:15,630
Now, why was this sent in the first

3017
02:01:15,630 --> 02:01:16,110
place?

3018
02:01:16,110 --> 02:01:22,410
What is the end game here of sending

3019
02:01:22,410 --> 02:01:23,650
this note to us?

3020
02:01:24,430 --> 02:01:27,070
We don't have advertisers, so it's got nothing

3021
02:01:27,070 --> 02:01:28,470
to do with any real advertisers.

3022
02:01:28,710 --> 02:01:30,270
It's some sort of a phony baloney scam?

3023
02:01:31,030 --> 02:01:33,130
No, this is someone who thought they could

3024
02:01:33,130 --> 02:01:34,650
find a good use of AI.

3025
02:01:35,470 --> 02:01:36,630
Oh, and this is what they found?

3026
02:01:36,690 --> 02:01:37,310
This is it.

3027
02:01:38,230 --> 02:01:40,430
The extended listener donation segment.

3028
02:01:41,390 --> 02:01:42,290
Here we go.

3029
02:01:42,290 --> 02:01:45,110
While listener support is vital, the length of

3030
02:01:45,110 --> 02:01:48,110
the donation readouts, including personal anecdotes and tangents,

3031
02:01:48,170 --> 02:01:50,410
was cited as excessive and disruptive to the

3032
02:01:50,410 --> 02:01:50,990
show's flow.

3033
02:01:51,470 --> 02:01:54,170
Advertisers are concerned that this extended segment reduces

3034
02:01:54,170 --> 02:01:56,770
the time available for content and their messaging.

3035
02:01:57,750 --> 02:02:00,390
And then finally, tone and language.

3036
02:02:01,130 --> 02:02:04,650
Certain advertisers expressed discomfort with the overall tone,

3037
02:02:05,030 --> 02:02:08,090
particularly the use of dismissive language like bullcrap

3038
02:02:08,090 --> 02:02:08,890
and jamokes.

3039
02:02:10,010 --> 02:02:12,770
Well, at least he nailed it.

3040
02:02:13,090 --> 02:02:15,390
And the sometimes cynical and negative framing of

3041
02:02:15,390 --> 02:02:15,990
news events.

3042
02:02:16,390 --> 02:02:18,870
They prefer a more measured and analytical approach.

3043
02:02:19,490 --> 02:02:20,990
And it goes on and on and on

3044
02:02:20,990 --> 02:02:21,310
and on.

3045
02:02:21,590 --> 02:02:22,910
Wow, you've got to send me that.

3046
02:02:23,070 --> 02:02:23,590
Yeah, I will.

3047
02:02:25,030 --> 02:02:27,150
The AI then made a rap song out

3048
02:02:27,150 --> 02:02:28,570
of it, which I will not bore you

3049
02:02:28,570 --> 02:02:28,870
with.

3050
02:02:29,110 --> 02:02:30,130
No, you don't need that.

3051
02:02:30,230 --> 02:02:31,090
It's horrible.

3052
02:02:32,170 --> 02:02:33,130
I'm sure it is.

3053
02:02:33,290 --> 02:02:33,390
It's just crap.

3054
02:02:33,810 --> 02:02:37,270
So anyway, Time Talent Treasure is how we

3055
02:02:37,270 --> 02:02:39,890
operate this ship, which means we need your

3056
02:02:39,890 --> 02:02:40,750
financial support.

3057
02:02:40,830 --> 02:02:43,010
But we appreciate any kind of time and

3058
02:02:43,010 --> 02:02:44,630
talent that you put into it, which includes

3059
02:02:44,630 --> 02:02:45,850
the work that our artists do.

3060
02:02:46,310 --> 02:02:47,970
They always provide us with a piece of

3061
02:02:47,970 --> 02:02:49,990
artwork that we can use as the album

3062
02:02:49,990 --> 02:02:53,410
art and to get attention for engagement farming

3063
02:02:53,410 --> 02:02:55,230
on the socials, to be quite honest about

3064
02:02:55,230 --> 02:02:55,410
it.

3065
02:02:55,770 --> 02:02:57,110
And it always seems to work.

3066
02:02:57,190 --> 02:02:59,070
People love this one, although I did get

3067
02:02:59,070 --> 02:02:59,540
the errands.

3068
02:03:00,160 --> 02:03:02,840
Man, if you hate Tim Pool so much,

3069
02:03:02,860 --> 02:03:03,860
just don't talk about him.

3070
02:03:04,020 --> 02:03:05,520
You're sending audience to him.

3071
02:03:06,620 --> 02:03:07,060
Okay.

3072
02:03:07,460 --> 02:03:07,980
All right.

3073
02:03:08,020 --> 02:03:08,460
I'm sure.

3074
02:03:08,560 --> 02:03:12,100
Because Episode 1759 titled Eat the Babies.

3075
02:03:12,240 --> 02:03:14,560
I don't care about sending audience to Tim

3076
02:03:14,560 --> 02:03:15,580
Pool one way or the other.

3077
02:03:16,080 --> 02:03:16,840
I know.

3078
02:03:17,220 --> 02:03:18,720
But this is I'm just giving you the

3079
02:03:18,720 --> 02:03:19,040
feedback.

3080
02:03:19,280 --> 02:03:20,080
I'm giving you true.

3081
02:03:20,120 --> 02:03:22,020
I mean, if you if he gets audience,

3082
02:03:22,140 --> 02:03:23,580
he gets some recognition on the show.

3083
02:03:23,780 --> 02:03:26,400
Maybe he'll maybe maybe he'll log roll and

3084
02:03:26,400 --> 02:03:27,900
give us a log roll.

3085
02:03:28,860 --> 02:03:30,340
It's called pod rolling.

3086
02:03:30,620 --> 02:03:31,200
Pod rolling.

3087
02:03:31,480 --> 02:03:32,200
You pod roll.

3088
02:03:33,280 --> 02:03:34,120
You don't log roll.

3089
02:03:34,240 --> 02:03:35,780
That's so 2005.

3090
02:03:36,240 --> 02:03:37,160
It's pod rolling.

3091
02:03:38,620 --> 02:03:40,380
The artwork came to us from a well

3092
02:03:40,380 --> 02:03:43,180
-known artist, Capitalist Agenda, and it was indeed

3093
02:03:43,180 --> 02:03:46,420
the Beanie Boys Beanie with the googly eyes

3094
02:03:46,420 --> 02:03:48,860
in his googly eyes is what made it

3095
02:03:48,860 --> 02:03:50,900
work in his seat as at the new

3096
02:03:50,900 --> 02:03:52,380
media chair.

3097
02:03:52,760 --> 02:03:54,740
Oh, by the way, I had a where

3098
02:03:54,740 --> 02:03:55,500
do I have that?

3099
02:03:56,280 --> 02:03:58,260
There was a new guy in the new

3100
02:03:58,260 --> 02:03:59,060
media chair.

3101
02:03:59,920 --> 02:04:00,960
Let me see.

3102
02:04:01,180 --> 02:04:02,160
Where did I have that?

3103
02:04:04,060 --> 02:04:07,900
And the new guy, you know, that that's

3104
02:04:07,900 --> 02:04:09,940
an embarrassment being in that chair, it seems

3105
02:04:09,940 --> 02:04:10,360
to me.

3106
02:04:11,100 --> 02:04:13,100
Well, the guy in at this time was

3107
02:04:13,100 --> 02:04:19,380
Winston Marshall, formerly guitarist and banjo player of

3108
02:04:19,380 --> 02:04:20,420
Mumford and Sons.

3109
02:04:21,360 --> 02:04:26,080
He's British, and he now occupies this seat.

3110
02:04:26,220 --> 02:04:28,760
And I think this was also a set

3111
02:04:28,760 --> 02:04:30,060
up bull crap question.

3112
02:04:30,260 --> 02:04:31,080
Sorry, advertisers.

3113
02:04:32,540 --> 02:04:36,000
As he was, he was referring to the

3114
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:39,440
sordid state of affairs in his home country

3115
02:04:39,440 --> 02:04:40,520
of the United Kingdoms.

3116
02:04:41,460 --> 02:04:43,020
It's in Britain.

3117
02:04:43,240 --> 02:04:45,820
We have had a quarter of a million

3118
02:04:45,820 --> 02:04:49,560
people issued non-crime hate incidents.

3119
02:04:50,020 --> 02:04:51,680
As we speak, there are people in prison

3120
02:04:51,680 --> 02:04:54,500
for quite literally reposting memes.

3121
02:04:55,180 --> 02:04:59,660
We have extensive prison sentences and for for

3122
02:04:59,660 --> 02:05:05,080
tweets, social media posts and general free speech

3123
02:05:05,080 --> 02:05:05,620
issues.

3124
02:05:05,620 --> 02:05:10,640
Would the Trump administration consider political asylum for

3125
02:05:10,640 --> 02:05:12,980
British citizens in such a situation?

3126
02:05:13,560 --> 02:05:15,280
Well, to your latter question, it's a very

3127
02:05:15,280 --> 02:05:15,700
good one.

3128
02:05:15,860 --> 02:05:17,520
I have not heard that proposed to the

3129
02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:19,260
president, nor have I spoken to him about

3130
02:05:19,260 --> 02:05:19,820
that idea.

3131
02:05:20,120 --> 02:05:21,960
But I certainly can and talk to our

3132
02:05:21,960 --> 02:05:23,820
national security team and see if it's something

3133
02:05:23,820 --> 02:05:25,840
the administration would entertain.

3134
02:05:26,080 --> 02:05:26,540
Yes, please.

3135
02:05:26,880 --> 02:05:29,500
Asylum for the Brits, I tell you, that

3136
02:05:29,500 --> 02:05:30,980
was a set up question.

3137
02:05:32,640 --> 02:05:35,860
So we know that that chair is there

3138
02:05:35,860 --> 02:05:36,900
for bull crap.

3139
02:05:36,920 --> 02:05:38,860
It's the set up bull crap chair.

3140
02:05:38,980 --> 02:05:39,380
Yes.

3141
02:05:40,680 --> 02:05:43,060
And of course, everyone goes along with it.

3142
02:05:43,300 --> 02:05:45,200
I wonder if they hand them a script.

3143
02:05:45,560 --> 02:05:46,840
Would you like you do want to be

3144
02:05:46,840 --> 02:05:47,900
in the chair this week?

3145
02:05:48,540 --> 02:05:48,820
Sure.

3146
02:05:49,080 --> 02:05:50,520
Well, can you do this?

3147
02:05:50,620 --> 02:05:52,180
And they give you give you a script.

3148
02:05:52,380 --> 02:05:54,000
They look it over and you decide, yeah,

3149
02:05:54,020 --> 02:05:54,800
I can do that.

3150
02:05:55,280 --> 02:05:57,920
If they do, I have to memorize it.

3151
02:05:58,000 --> 02:05:59,200
Yeah, you have to memorize it.

3152
02:05:59,240 --> 02:06:00,320
OK, I can manage that.

3153
02:06:00,320 --> 02:06:02,500
Imagine that they said, OK, Kerry, you're up.

3154
02:06:02,540 --> 02:06:03,500
You're in the new media chair.

3155
02:06:03,580 --> 02:06:05,140
I'd sit there and then I just I

3156
02:06:05,140 --> 02:06:06,480
just I'd have the script.

3157
02:06:06,560 --> 02:06:07,800
But then I'd hold up a picture and

3158
02:06:07,800 --> 02:06:09,560
say, hey, Carolyn, what's this in your mouth?

3159
02:06:09,720 --> 02:06:10,840
That's what I would do.

3160
02:06:11,220 --> 02:06:11,980
That would make me.

3161
02:06:12,180 --> 02:06:12,800
No, you're right.

3162
02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:14,100
I wouldn't do that.

3163
02:06:14,280 --> 02:06:17,620
You know, the first lobbering.

3164
02:06:18,660 --> 02:06:19,400
Hey, Carol.

3165
02:06:22,520 --> 02:06:23,620
Anyway, thank you very much.

3166
02:06:23,700 --> 02:06:24,420
Capitalist agenda.

3167
02:06:24,540 --> 02:06:25,780
You're a unanimous winner.

3168
02:06:25,780 --> 02:06:27,820
Let's take a quick look at no agenda.

3169
02:06:28,020 --> 02:06:29,200
Our generator dot com.

3170
02:06:30,580 --> 02:06:32,700
Was there anything that had a lot of

3171
02:06:32,700 --> 02:06:34,040
tapping stuff that.

3172
02:06:34,280 --> 02:06:36,500
Yeah, no, that was so head and shoulders

3173
02:06:36,500 --> 02:06:38,000
above everything else.

3174
02:06:38,040 --> 02:06:39,760
I didn't want to actually use it because

3175
02:06:39,760 --> 02:06:42,480
I thought we don't need to send audience

3176
02:06:42,480 --> 02:06:43,180
to him.

3177
02:06:43,640 --> 02:06:44,440
Just send audience.

3178
02:06:44,660 --> 02:06:45,380
That's so much.

3179
02:06:45,400 --> 02:06:46,840
It's kind of an insulting thing.

3180
02:06:47,280 --> 02:06:49,180
But you like it.

3181
02:06:49,180 --> 02:06:50,120
But it's so funny.

3182
02:06:50,180 --> 02:06:52,360
You have to say you said specifically it's

3183
02:06:52,360 --> 02:06:54,540
the googly eyes that make it work.

3184
02:06:54,540 --> 02:06:56,380
It is the googly eyes.

3185
02:06:56,400 --> 02:06:57,600
It was definitely the googly eyes.

3186
02:06:57,720 --> 02:06:58,200
It's fantastic.

3187
02:06:58,680 --> 02:06:59,560
It was fantastic.

3188
02:06:59,580 --> 02:07:01,620
Yeah, no, capitalist agenda has skills.

3189
02:07:01,800 --> 02:07:03,060
He's got mad skills.

3190
02:07:03,420 --> 02:07:03,600
Mad skills.

3191
02:07:03,600 --> 02:07:04,900
And he's got, yeah, he's got the little

3192
02:07:04,900 --> 02:07:07,720
tag with this new media on the earphones.

3193
02:07:08,220 --> 02:07:08,620
Idiotic.

3194
02:07:09,180 --> 02:07:09,540
It was.

3195
02:07:09,740 --> 02:07:12,140
Well, ever since Tim pooled, you know, the

3196
02:07:12,140 --> 02:07:15,200
five million dollars came out and he thought

3197
02:07:15,200 --> 02:07:16,720
that it was because he was that good.

3198
02:07:16,820 --> 02:07:18,040
He just had to make fun of it.

3199
02:07:18,120 --> 02:07:20,060
I mean, remember the Russian money?

3200
02:07:20,660 --> 02:07:21,120
Oh, yeah.

3201
02:07:21,300 --> 02:07:22,340
Who can you forget?

3202
02:07:22,340 --> 02:07:22,780
Yeah.

3203
02:07:23,980 --> 02:07:24,420
Hmm.

3204
02:07:25,120 --> 02:07:26,600
Anyway, we want to thank everybody.

3205
02:07:26,740 --> 02:07:28,720
We always thank everybody who supports us with

3206
02:07:28,720 --> 02:07:30,520
fifty dollars or above at this moment in

3207
02:07:30,520 --> 02:07:32,420
the show, which is now known as the

3208
02:07:32,420 --> 02:07:33,880
pre stable coin segments.

3209
02:07:34,520 --> 02:07:37,260
We will be thanking our executive and associate

3210
02:07:37,260 --> 02:07:38,120
executive producers.

3211
02:07:38,280 --> 02:07:39,140
Very simple system.

3212
02:07:39,500 --> 02:07:41,180
You support us with two hundred dollars or

3213
02:07:41,180 --> 02:07:42,020
more for a show.

3214
02:07:42,160 --> 02:07:44,440
You get an official Hollywood credit that can

3215
02:07:44,440 --> 02:07:45,160
be used anywhere.

3216
02:07:45,300 --> 02:07:47,760
These credits are recognized, including IMDB.

3217
02:07:47,860 --> 02:07:49,160
You have to do it for yourself, but

3218
02:07:49,160 --> 02:07:50,560
you will be able to open up with

3219
02:07:50,560 --> 02:07:50,980
that credit.

3220
02:07:50,980 --> 02:07:53,620
You get an associate executive producer credit and

3221
02:07:53,620 --> 02:07:54,280
we read your note.

3222
02:07:54,380 --> 02:07:55,420
Three hundred dollars or above.

3223
02:07:55,760 --> 02:07:57,860
An executive producer credit credit coveted.

3224
02:07:58,000 --> 02:07:58,780
Good for a lifetime.

3225
02:07:59,080 --> 02:08:01,560
Anywhere that these credits are honored and recognized.

3226
02:08:02,240 --> 02:08:04,060
And we will read your note as well

3227
02:08:04,060 --> 02:08:05,300
with your executive producer credit.

3228
02:08:05,420 --> 02:08:07,840
And we kick it off with our anonymous

3229
02:08:07,840 --> 02:08:10,840
black sheep from Maryville, Tennessee.

3230
02:08:11,140 --> 02:08:15,260
Six hundred and ten dollars and anonymous black

3231
02:08:15,260 --> 02:08:18,580
sheep who I know the anonymous black sheep

3232
02:08:18,580 --> 02:08:19,600
sent me a note, actually.

3233
02:08:20,580 --> 02:08:21,580
And this is it.

3234
02:08:21,800 --> 02:08:23,240
Thank you for the awesome content.

3235
02:08:23,300 --> 02:08:24,620
I've emailed Adam off and on.

3236
02:08:24,860 --> 02:08:26,380
Adam, I'm a recent Christian and do a

3237
02:08:26,380 --> 02:08:26,980
daily journal.

3238
02:08:27,480 --> 02:08:28,720
The company is called Daily.

3239
02:08:28,720 --> 02:08:30,830
The company is called Daily Kairos.

3240
02:08:31,520 --> 02:08:32,900
K-A-I-R-O-S.

3241
02:08:33,320 --> 02:08:34,120
Excellent product.

3242
02:08:34,220 --> 02:08:34,660
I recommend.

3243
02:08:35,260 --> 02:08:37,640
I'm a military contractor that embeds with Army

3244
02:08:37,640 --> 02:08:38,740
and Marine Corps units.

3245
02:08:39,320 --> 02:08:40,980
This is the signal guy.

3246
02:08:41,380 --> 02:08:42,080
Signals the app.

3247
02:08:42,160 --> 02:08:43,700
The D.O.D. uses end to end

3248
02:08:43,700 --> 02:08:44,060
encryption.

3249
02:08:44,200 --> 02:08:45,460
I'd like to call out Michael.

3250
02:08:46,300 --> 02:08:49,000
Steers charts, which is who we call it

3251
02:08:49,000 --> 02:08:49,920
earlier as a douche bag.

3252
02:08:50,840 --> 02:08:53,180
I didn't realize you've been double douche bag.

3253
02:08:53,240 --> 02:08:56,500
I didn't even realize you've been double douche

3254
02:08:56,500 --> 02:08:56,780
bag.

3255
02:08:56,860 --> 02:08:57,540
That's bad.

3256
02:08:57,940 --> 02:08:58,820
That's bad.

3257
02:08:59,280 --> 02:09:02,260
They didn't realize that he donated inside baseball.

3258
02:09:02,360 --> 02:09:04,080
We've had two units move out of Iraq

3259
02:09:04,080 --> 02:09:05,840
and the third will be in June when

3260
02:09:05,840 --> 02:09:06,800
the contract is up.

3261
02:09:06,860 --> 02:09:08,640
We have other new sites and other in

3262
02:09:08,640 --> 02:09:10,580
another Middle Eastern country.

3263
02:09:10,780 --> 02:09:11,180
Hmm.

3264
02:09:11,580 --> 02:09:13,300
Another two sites in Africa.

3265
02:09:13,300 --> 02:09:15,580
Another site added in the Pacific.

3266
02:09:15,820 --> 02:09:19,900
Unlike allegedly Pete Hegseth, there's no operational security

3267
02:09:19,900 --> 02:09:21,000
being divulged.

3268
02:09:21,540 --> 02:09:23,840
FYI, I was on a green suit deployment

3269
02:09:23,840 --> 02:09:26,280
with JSOC when our boys smoked the Wagner

3270
02:09:26,280 --> 02:09:27,320
guys in Syria.

3271
02:09:28,100 --> 02:09:32,060
This is the level of producer we are.

3272
02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:33,760
I just love that.

3273
02:09:34,080 --> 02:09:36,580
We smoked the Wagner guys in Syria.

3274
02:09:36,780 --> 02:09:38,140
This is what I'm talking about.

3275
02:09:38,580 --> 02:09:40,040
This is why we are the best podcast

3276
02:09:40,040 --> 02:09:41,380
in the universe.

3277
02:09:42,220 --> 02:09:46,180
And he says, Jingles, you might die.

3278
02:09:47,080 --> 02:09:48,020
Love you both.

3279
02:09:48,500 --> 02:09:49,700
Jesus loves us all.

3280
02:09:50,040 --> 02:09:50,960
You might die.

3281
02:09:51,440 --> 02:09:53,540
Yeah, if you come across the anonymous black

3282
02:09:53,540 --> 02:09:54,500
sheep, you might die.

3283
02:09:55,860 --> 02:09:56,020
All right.

3284
02:09:56,380 --> 02:09:57,180
That's true.

3285
02:09:57,980 --> 02:09:58,720
Oh, I'm sorry.

3286
02:09:58,880 --> 02:10:00,420
And I have the classic, that's true.

3287
02:10:00,540 --> 02:10:01,140
That's true.

3288
02:10:01,460 --> 02:10:02,840
I actually loaded it up.

3289
02:10:02,900 --> 02:10:03,360
There you go.

3290
02:10:04,200 --> 02:10:05,000
Scott Horton's up.

3291
02:10:05,060 --> 02:10:06,180
He's in Malibu, California.

3292
02:10:06,440 --> 02:10:08,140
Who is this Scott Horton?

3293
02:10:08,240 --> 02:10:09,000
Never heard of that guy.

3294
02:10:09,060 --> 02:10:10,660
Never heard of Scott Horton.

3295
02:10:10,660 --> 02:10:11,780
550-50.

3296
02:10:13,440 --> 02:10:16,600
Hello, John Z, Adam, and the whole Gitmo

3297
02:10:16,600 --> 02:10:16,900
Nation.

3298
02:10:17,000 --> 02:10:18,820
This is the other Scott Horton.

3299
02:10:18,960 --> 02:10:19,700
Ah, there it is.

3300
02:10:19,940 --> 02:10:23,200
I made it out to Leo Bravo's meetup

3301
02:10:23,200 --> 02:10:23,840
this weekend.

3302
02:10:24,080 --> 02:10:26,100
What a great turnout and what fun people.

3303
02:10:26,220 --> 02:10:29,980
I'm donating 550-50 to finish up my

3304
02:10:29,980 --> 02:10:30,520
nighting.

3305
02:10:30,700 --> 02:10:33,500
I needed 33 cents to complete to 1

3306
02:10:33,500 --> 02:10:33,980
,000.

3307
02:10:34,240 --> 02:10:34,580
Wow.

3308
02:10:34,940 --> 02:10:37,600
And wanted to add Commodore 2.

3309
02:10:38,360 --> 02:10:41,880
I haven't thought of a good name yet,

3310
02:10:41,940 --> 02:10:43,940
so that will be coming soon with my

3311
02:10:43,940 --> 02:10:44,480
accounting.

3312
02:10:45,220 --> 02:10:47,320
I want to call out, I think he's

3313
02:10:47,320 --> 02:10:49,100
on the list anyway for the Commodore ship.

3314
02:10:49,120 --> 02:10:50,460
He is on the list for Commodore ship,

3315
02:10:50,540 --> 02:10:50,700
yep.

3316
02:10:51,440 --> 02:10:53,300
And there's a couple of stragglers, by the

3317
02:10:53,300 --> 02:10:56,500
way, that are already, there's issues with their

3318
02:10:56,500 --> 02:10:58,620
Commodore ship, but they'll get it next show.

3319
02:11:00,720 --> 02:11:03,940
I wanted to call out the Pineapple Princess

3320
02:11:03,940 --> 02:11:06,380
and Dano as douchebags.

3321
02:11:06,640 --> 02:11:07,060
Dario.

3322
02:11:07,820 --> 02:11:08,340
Oh.

3323
02:11:08,640 --> 02:11:09,760
Not even close to Dano.

3324
02:11:09,760 --> 02:11:11,340
Well, if you look at it from where

3325
02:11:11,340 --> 02:11:13,040
I'm sitting, about a mile away from the

3326
02:11:13,040 --> 02:11:13,760
monitor, it looks like Dano.

3327
02:11:13,760 --> 02:11:15,320
Get closer, Pineapple Princess.

3328
02:11:15,720 --> 02:11:16,240
Douchebag.

3329
02:11:17,140 --> 02:11:19,360
And Dario, formerly known as Dano.

3330
02:11:19,960 --> 02:11:20,480
Douchebag.

3331
02:11:21,300 --> 02:11:24,060
And let Tyrone know that he still has

3332
02:11:24,060 --> 02:11:27,880
the stench of douchebaggery wafting from him.

3333
02:11:28,540 --> 02:11:29,060
Douchebag.

3334
02:11:30,540 --> 02:11:34,140
Thank you, John and Adam, for keeping so

3335
02:11:34,140 --> 02:11:36,240
many of us sane and helping us to

3336
02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:40,020
see through the media slash propaganda BS.

3337
02:11:40,500 --> 02:11:43,260
I'd like Jobs, Goat Karma, and Her Head

3338
02:11:43,260 --> 02:11:46,220
is Gone, and LG Boomshakalaka.

3339
02:11:46,380 --> 02:11:47,400
And Her Head is Gone.

3340
02:11:47,720 --> 02:11:48,320
Boomshakalaka.

3341
02:11:49,080 --> 02:11:49,680
Boomshakalaka.

3342
02:11:49,940 --> 02:11:53,400
Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and Jobs.

3343
02:11:53,600 --> 02:11:55,080
Let's vote for Jobs.

3344
02:11:55,120 --> 02:11:55,520
Yeah!

3345
02:11:57,620 --> 02:11:58,220
Karma.

3346
02:12:00,260 --> 02:12:01,680
Austin Carr is next.

3347
02:12:01,780 --> 02:12:05,360
He's in Miami Springs, Florida, 533.33. Love

3348
02:12:05,360 --> 02:12:06,260
those 33s.

3349
02:12:06,260 --> 02:12:07,300
It's a switcheroo.

3350
02:12:07,820 --> 02:12:10,120
ITM Jen, since I've already spent many, many

3351
02:12:10,120 --> 02:12:12,420
thousands so my daughter could become a Vanderbilt

3352
02:12:12,420 --> 02:12:15,320
University Commodore graduate, I thought, what the heck?

3353
02:12:15,900 --> 02:12:18,880
Well, another 533.33 would be a bargain,

3354
02:12:19,020 --> 02:12:20,960
so she could also become a no-agenda

3355
02:12:20,960 --> 02:12:21,460
Commodore.

3356
02:12:21,920 --> 02:12:25,340
Please dub Abby Paulson as Commodore of the

3357
02:12:25,340 --> 02:12:27,040
Human Resource Producers.

3358
02:12:27,620 --> 02:12:29,400
So now do I put...

3359
02:12:29,400 --> 02:12:31,500
I'll just do Abby Paulson.

3360
02:12:31,800 --> 02:12:33,180
I'll put the whole thing in there.

3361
02:12:33,560 --> 02:12:34,540
Make it official.

3362
02:12:35,060 --> 02:12:35,500
Okay.

3363
02:12:35,680 --> 02:12:37,540
We don't want to get those switcheroos wrong.

3364
02:12:38,780 --> 02:12:40,280
Baby number three on the way.

3365
02:12:40,440 --> 02:12:42,100
Soon-to-be 33-year-old mom.

3366
02:12:42,260 --> 02:12:42,820
There you go.

3367
02:12:42,920 --> 02:12:43,480
Austin Carr.

3368
02:12:43,640 --> 02:12:45,080
P.S. Abby is also the wife of

3369
02:12:45,080 --> 02:12:46,780
the Coast Guard pilot who last year gave

3370
02:12:46,780 --> 02:12:48,900
an in-the-morning shout-out during his

3371
02:12:48,900 --> 02:12:51,780
M5M interview after a Gulf of America hurricane

3372
02:12:51,780 --> 02:12:52,160
rescue.

3373
02:12:52,240 --> 02:12:52,800
Yes, I remember.

3374
02:12:53,480 --> 02:12:55,560
I believe such a free publicity donation for

3375
02:12:55,560 --> 02:12:57,100
the no-agenda show is worthy of an

3376
02:12:57,100 --> 02:12:59,120
honorary no-agenda Commodore ship.

3377
02:12:59,480 --> 02:12:59,920
Hmm.

3378
02:13:00,840 --> 02:13:01,720
It's your duty.

3379
02:13:02,600 --> 02:13:03,300
It's your duty.

3380
02:13:03,300 --> 02:13:04,560
This is not a...

3381
02:13:04,860 --> 02:13:05,240
Exactly.

3382
02:13:05,340 --> 02:13:06,200
It's your duty.

3383
02:13:06,460 --> 02:13:07,120
It's your duty.

3384
02:13:07,820 --> 02:13:08,420
All right.

3385
02:13:09,060 --> 02:13:09,940
Thank you very much.

3386
02:13:10,500 --> 02:13:11,720
The switcheroo has been made.

3387
02:13:11,780 --> 02:13:12,580
Austin to Abby.

3388
02:13:14,460 --> 02:13:17,520
Sir Marcus in Egan, Minnesota.

3389
02:13:18,320 --> 02:13:19,500
By 1538.

3390
02:13:20,160 --> 02:13:25,120
Guys, this is Sir Marcus of Gerkeland.

3391
02:13:26,600 --> 02:13:27,200
Gerkeland.

3392
02:13:28,840 --> 02:13:30,120
Pickle Land, maybe?

3393
02:13:30,360 --> 02:13:30,620
I don't know.

3394
02:13:32,380 --> 02:13:33,820
Gerkeland, yeah.

3395
02:13:34,220 --> 02:13:40,100
My sweet stepdaughter, Blair, nicknamed me Commodore years

3396
02:13:40,100 --> 02:13:43,120
ago due to driving boats on our Minnesota

3397
02:13:43,120 --> 02:13:43,600
lakes.

3398
02:13:44,280 --> 02:13:45,520
This is the land of 10,000 lakes.

3399
02:13:46,000 --> 02:13:48,780
So I thought I'd better make it official.

3400
02:13:49,180 --> 02:13:52,620
So how about Mark Commodore of Pro Wing

3401
02:13:52,620 --> 02:13:53,380
County.

3402
02:13:53,660 --> 02:13:54,120
Thanks.

3403
02:13:54,440 --> 02:13:55,460
Sounds good to me.

3404
02:13:56,300 --> 02:13:58,780
Sir Milkman comes in next from Evington, Virginia.

3405
02:13:58,780 --> 02:13:59,360
$500.

3406
02:13:59,880 --> 02:14:02,400
And he just says, Sir Milkman of Evington,

3407
02:14:02,480 --> 02:14:02,980
Barron.

3408
02:14:03,340 --> 02:14:04,620
All right.

3409
02:14:04,940 --> 02:14:09,600
Zedock Brown III in Pukalani, Hawaii.

3410
02:14:09,820 --> 02:14:10,460
Pukalani.

3411
02:14:11,440 --> 02:14:12,660
Pukalani, Hawaii.

3412
02:14:13,600 --> 02:14:14,240
500.

3413
02:14:14,940 --> 02:14:17,220
ITM Gents had to get in under the

3414
02:14:17,220 --> 02:14:18,100
wire for Commodore.

3415
02:14:18,600 --> 02:14:20,380
Mahalo for all you do.

3416
02:14:20,580 --> 02:14:21,480
Mahalo for you.

3417
02:14:22,200 --> 02:14:22,560
Wow.

3418
02:14:22,660 --> 02:14:25,880
We have three with no note here.

3419
02:14:26,000 --> 02:14:27,900
So that will be three double-up karmas.

3420
02:14:27,900 --> 02:14:31,800
The first for SDG in Oakland, California.

3421
02:14:31,960 --> 02:14:32,440
$500.

3422
02:14:32,980 --> 02:14:34,720
And a double-up karma for you.

3423
02:14:35,200 --> 02:14:37,900
You've got karma.

3424
02:14:38,640 --> 02:14:39,860
I might as well do the other two.

3425
02:14:39,960 --> 02:14:40,820
Yeah, might as well.

3426
02:14:40,980 --> 02:14:44,580
Brock Reinhold, Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, Canada.

3427
02:14:44,880 --> 02:14:45,400
$500.

3428
02:14:45,840 --> 02:14:47,080
Double-up karma for you.

3429
02:14:47,400 --> 02:14:50,140
You've got karma.

3430
02:14:50,940 --> 02:14:52,980
And John Tucker from Omaha, Nebraska.

3431
02:14:53,160 --> 02:14:53,680
$500.

3432
02:14:54,160 --> 02:14:55,840
And a double-up karma for you.

3433
02:14:55,840 --> 02:14:59,400
You've got karma.

3434
02:15:01,500 --> 02:15:03,560
Laurens de Kooster.

3435
02:15:04,460 --> 02:15:05,500
I'm guessing.

3436
02:15:06,040 --> 02:15:07,480
Laurens de Kooster.

3437
02:15:08,040 --> 02:15:10,500
De Kooster in Belgium.

3438
02:15:11,140 --> 02:15:11,900
Ittigem.

3439
02:15:12,800 --> 02:15:13,560
$350.

3440
02:15:14,180 --> 02:15:14,820
93.

3441
02:15:15,580 --> 02:15:16,980
ITM John and Adam keep up the great

3442
02:15:16,980 --> 02:15:17,160
work.

3443
02:15:17,220 --> 02:15:18,020
No jingles, no karma.

3444
02:15:18,180 --> 02:15:19,620
Greetings from Belgium.

3445
02:15:20,360 --> 02:15:21,120
Ittigem.

3446
02:15:21,320 --> 02:15:23,760
And he's got some something here.

3447
02:15:23,760 --> 02:15:24,740
Met vriendelijke groeten.

3448
02:15:27,460 --> 02:15:28,300
Loves and kisses.

3449
02:15:28,520 --> 02:15:30,340
I hope this note finds you well.

3450
02:15:31,340 --> 02:15:33,160
I hope this note finds you well.

3451
02:15:34,900 --> 02:15:36,760
SirDibsOnLiving, North Providence, Rhode Island.

3452
02:15:36,920 --> 02:15:37,880
That's where my mom is from.

3453
02:15:38,100 --> 02:15:41,440
$333.33. And SirDibs says, ITM John and

3454
02:15:41,440 --> 02:15:42,460
Adam, no jingles, no karma.

3455
02:15:43,160 --> 02:15:44,780
SirDibsOnLiving, thank you very much.

3456
02:15:45,320 --> 02:15:46,740
Yeah, and you got the next one, too,

3457
02:15:47,040 --> 02:15:48,100
for obvious reasons.

3458
02:15:48,380 --> 02:15:50,620
In the morning, John and Adam says, Andrew

3459
02:15:50,620 --> 02:15:51,140
Dechter.

3460
02:15:51,140 --> 02:15:54,020
And greetings to all Gitmo Nation from Northern

3461
02:15:54,020 --> 02:15:56,040
Wildcat Territory, FEMA Region No.

3462
02:15:56,180 --> 02:15:57,780
4, a.k.a. Northern Kentucky.

3463
02:15:57,920 --> 02:15:59,620
I come to you with heavy heart.

3464
02:16:00,380 --> 02:16:02,680
My 50-year-old wife, Angel, was diagnosed

3465
02:16:02,680 --> 02:16:05,000
with stage 4 kidney cancer in September of

3466
02:16:05,000 --> 02:16:05,580
2022.

3467
02:16:05,880 --> 02:16:08,980
She lost the kidney, underwent immunotherapy, and several

3468
02:16:08,980 --> 02:16:10,900
other courses of treatment, but the cancer still

3469
02:16:10,900 --> 02:16:11,260
spread.

3470
02:16:11,760 --> 02:16:14,460
Cancer sucks, and cancer that doesn't respond to

3471
02:16:14,460 --> 02:16:15,860
treatment sucks even more.

3472
02:16:16,360 --> 02:16:18,280
After learning the cancer spread to her brain,

3473
02:16:18,280 --> 02:16:20,220
she finally had enough and elected for home

3474
02:16:20,220 --> 02:16:21,100
hospice in March.

3475
02:16:21,180 --> 02:16:23,620
She is finally resting comfortably and seems to

3476
02:16:23,620 --> 02:16:24,280
be pain-free.

3477
02:16:24,460 --> 02:16:26,400
She is in her final days, and her

3478
02:16:26,400 --> 02:16:27,240
passing is imminent.

3479
02:16:27,920 --> 02:16:29,420
She was a fifth-grade teacher and was

3480
02:16:29,420 --> 02:16:31,260
one of the best in Boone County, Kentucky.

3481
02:16:31,379 --> 02:16:33,520
She had zero transitions in her class over

3482
02:16:33,520 --> 02:16:34,020
the years.

3483
02:16:34,700 --> 02:16:36,600
Angel will be sorely missed, but my three

3484
02:16:36,600 --> 02:16:38,340
kids and I will carry on her legacy.

3485
02:16:39,320 --> 02:16:41,500
Angel was not a listener of No Agenda,

3486
02:16:41,639 --> 02:16:44,000
but she tolerated my zeal for it and

3487
02:16:44,000 --> 02:16:46,120
didn't complain about my No Agenda coffee mugs,

3488
02:16:46,240 --> 02:16:47,040
stickers, and hats.

3489
02:16:47,040 --> 02:16:49,459
I wish to honor her tolerance by making

3490
02:16:49,459 --> 02:16:51,340
her an executive producer for the May Day

3491
02:16:51,340 --> 02:16:52,480
show, 1760.

3492
02:16:52,959 --> 02:16:56,040
Please accept this treasure of 333.33 for

3493
02:16:56,040 --> 02:16:58,020
show 1760 in her name.

3494
02:16:58,520 --> 02:17:01,120
I request massive amounts of No Agenda health

3495
02:17:01,120 --> 02:17:02,920
karma for my beautiful wife in her final

3496
02:17:02,920 --> 02:17:03,299
days.

3497
02:17:03,680 --> 02:17:04,320
She needs it.

3498
02:17:04,379 --> 02:17:05,219
F-cancer, please.

3499
02:17:06,139 --> 02:17:07,240
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

3500
02:17:07,299 --> 02:17:07,820
Of course.

3501
02:17:08,000 --> 02:17:10,120
And she's in our prayers, mine for sure.

3502
02:17:15,389 --> 02:17:16,990
You've got karma.

3503
02:17:20,389 --> 02:17:24,490
Vert Fuller in Batavia, New York, $300, and

3504
02:17:24,490 --> 02:17:26,629
he sent in a check with a note,

3505
02:17:26,850 --> 02:17:31,570
which I will read, to DNC, $300.

3506
02:17:33,230 --> 02:17:35,270
Ever had it in his hand written in

3507
02:17:35,270 --> 02:17:38,889
a kind of a sloppy style.

3508
02:17:39,450 --> 02:17:44,410
Even when you take the plug out, you

3509
02:17:44,410 --> 02:17:46,770
two are electrifying.

3510
02:17:46,770 --> 02:17:51,090
How did I ever make it before COVID

3511
02:17:51,090 --> 02:17:53,650
when I didn't know about your podcast?

3512
02:17:54,570 --> 02:17:59,650
You are like a lost and found, I

3513
02:17:59,650 --> 02:18:00,889
guess.

3514
02:18:01,410 --> 02:18:05,170
Yeah, you're like lost and found, referring to

3515
02:18:05,170 --> 02:18:06,490
a place where you go pick lost and

3516
02:18:06,490 --> 02:18:07,010
found stuff up.

3517
02:18:07,049 --> 02:18:07,430
I guess.

3518
02:18:07,629 --> 02:18:10,730
I would like to give this check donation

3519
02:18:10,730 --> 02:18:14,830
to making my son Andy a closer to

3520
02:18:14,830 --> 02:18:15,510
being a knight.

3521
02:18:15,910 --> 02:18:17,410
Okay, I don't know if he's on the

3522
02:18:17,410 --> 02:18:17,950
list or not.

3523
02:18:18,610 --> 02:18:20,990
Karma for my birthday on the 29th.

3524
02:18:21,010 --> 02:18:21,950
Is that on the list?

3525
02:18:22,010 --> 02:18:22,389
I don't know.

3526
02:18:22,850 --> 02:18:23,450
I think it is.

3527
02:18:23,469 --> 02:18:24,190
I'll check.

3528
02:18:24,370 --> 02:18:24,770
Let me see.

3529
02:18:24,930 --> 02:18:27,629
On the list, along with Willie Nelson.

3530
02:18:28,209 --> 02:18:28,570
Oh.

3531
02:18:30,370 --> 02:18:31,990
And then he says, too long a note.

3532
02:18:32,049 --> 02:18:33,590
When it's not really long at all, it's

3533
02:18:33,590 --> 02:18:34,370
just hard to read.

3534
02:18:35,070 --> 02:18:36,670
And by the way, that should be two

3535
02:18:36,670 --> 02:18:38,510
T-W-O's.

3536
02:18:40,690 --> 02:18:42,430
Sir, short for nothing.

3537
02:18:43,969 --> 02:18:44,330
Okay.

3538
02:18:45,790 --> 02:18:46,469
That's it?

3539
02:18:46,709 --> 02:18:48,870
Yeah, that's it.

3540
02:18:50,230 --> 02:18:51,910
Wirt Fuller, hold on a second.

3541
02:18:52,709 --> 02:18:53,389
Yeah, he's on there.

3542
02:18:54,309 --> 02:18:55,090
Rick W.

3543
02:18:55,250 --> 02:18:57,570
Cable is in Modesta, California.

3544
02:18:57,690 --> 02:19:00,190

3552
02:19:22,370 --> 02:19:24,110

3554
02:19:26,590 --> 02:19:27,110
That's nice.

British Columbia.

3562
02:19:43,910 --> 02:19:47,030
My donation of 247.87 USD is the

3563
02:19:47,030 --> 02:19:50,430
equivalent to 333 Canadian plus fees.

3564
02:19:50,630 --> 02:19:52,430
Okay, you get moved up.

3565
02:19:52,570 --> 02:19:53,590
You get upgraded.

3566

That's the angel number of your electrical project.

3574
02:20:19,390 --> 02:20:21,350
Canada may be down, but we're not dead

3575
02:20:21,350 --> 02:20:21,690
yet.

3576
02:20:22,130 --> 02:20:24,670

3580
02:20:32,050 --> 02:20:32,350
Nice.

3581
02:20:35,330 --> 02:20:41,650
Chad Finkbeiner in Highland Heights, Ohio, 222.22ROADX,

3582
02:20:41,650 --> 02:20:43,770
and he just simply says, thanks for the

3583
02:20:43,770 --> 02:20:46,190
best podcast on this side of the ice

3584
02:20:46,190 --> 02:20:46,710
wall.

3585
02:20:47,670 --> 02:20:49,030
Yak karma, please.

3586
02:20:49,230 --> 02:20:50,950
That's a Flat Earth reference if I've ever

3587
02:20:50,950 --> 02:20:51,230
heard one.

3588
02:20:51,250 --> 02:20:54,970
You've got karma.

3589
02:20:55,750 --> 02:20:56,770
Ah, there he is.

3590
02:20:56,830 --> 02:20:58,370
We were talking about him during the pre

3591
02:20:58,370 --> 02:20:58,950
-show amble.

3592
02:20:59,650 --> 02:21:02,670
We're down to our last bags, Eli, because

3593
02:21:02,670 --> 02:21:05,450
Eli the Coffee Guy comes in from Bensonville,

3594
02:21:05,570 --> 02:21:08,530
Illinois with 205.01 and says, Adam, you're

3595
02:21:08,530 --> 02:21:08,830
right.

3596
02:21:08,830 --> 02:21:11,530
America is hooked on cheap Chinese goods.

3597
02:21:11,590 --> 02:21:13,650
By the way, I see the president just

3598
02:21:13,650 --> 02:21:15,810
made a comment this morning about the tariffs.

3599
02:21:15,890 --> 02:21:19,170
He said, and I'm paraphrasing, well, maybe the

3600
02:21:19,170 --> 02:21:21,170
kids will just have two dolls instead of

3601
02:21:21,170 --> 02:21:21,530
30.

3602
02:21:22,050 --> 02:21:22,450
Okay.

3603
02:21:22,950 --> 02:21:24,930
We need to move our supply chain to

3604
02:21:24,930 --> 02:21:26,630
Central and South America to build up the

3605
02:21:26,630 --> 02:21:27,750
nations in our neighborhood.

3606
02:21:27,990 --> 02:21:30,210
It may even help with the immigration issue.

3607
02:21:30,550 --> 02:21:33,030
We just launched T-shirts on our website.

3608
02:21:33,150 --> 02:21:34,950
I'm happy to say they are finally crafted

3609
02:21:34,950 --> 02:21:36,990
right here in our own hemisphere in the

3610
02:21:36,990 --> 02:21:38,090
nation of Honduras.

3611
02:21:38,090 --> 02:21:41,250
They make great shirts and grow great coffee.

02:21:50,750 --> 02:21:52,490
Actually, Honduras coffee is good.

3616
02:21:52,910 --> 02:21:53,110
Yes.

3617
02:21:53,250 --> 02:21:54,270
Linda Lou Patkins up.

3618

Let's vote for jobs.

3628
02:22:20,590 --> 02:22:21,010
Yeah!

3629
02:22:22,210 --> 02:22:22,770
Karma.

3630
02:22:25,070 --> 02:22:27,330
And I believe that is it.

3631
02:22:27,350 --> 02:22:27,550
No.

3632
02:22:27,970 --> 02:22:28,590
We have one more.

3633
02:22:28,750 --> 02:22:30,510
Aaron Parr, Wilmington, North Carolina.

3634
02:22:30,970 --> 02:22:33,030
Shout out to Matt Parr in Wilmington, North

3635
02:22:33,030 --> 02:22:33,450
Carolina.

3636
02:22:33,670 --> 02:22:34,470
They might be related.

3637
02:22:34,470 --> 02:22:37,210
Congrats on your hole-in-one and being

3638
02:22:37,210 --> 02:22:38,570
the best new dad.

3639
02:22:38,830 --> 02:22:39,850
Go, Wolfpack!

3640
02:22:40,710 --> 02:22:41,590
Oh, there you go.

3641
02:22:41,870 --> 02:22:42,630
I love that.

3642
02:22:43,270 --> 02:22:45,570
I'm sure that's either his sister or his

3643
02:22:45,570 --> 02:22:45,790
wife.

3644
02:22:45,870 --> 02:22:46,790
I'm thinking his wife.

3645
02:22:47,770 --> 02:22:50,150
And with that, that concludes our Executive and

3646
02:22:50,150 --> 02:22:53,710
Associate Executive Producers for episode 1760.

3647
02:22:53,950 --> 02:22:55,750
We thank all of you who've supported us

3648
02:22:55,750 --> 02:22:57,590
and we'll be thanking the rest of the

3649
02:22:57,590 --> 02:22:59,910
$50 and above donors in our second segment,

3650
02:23:00,050 --> 02:23:01,650
so looking forward to that.

3651
02:23:01,770 --> 02:23:03,110
And of course, you can go to at

3652
02:23:03,110 --> 02:23:07,090
any point, anytime you feel like it, and

3653
02:23:07,090 --> 02:23:08,990
you can set up a donation of any

3654
02:23:08,990 --> 02:23:09,250
amount.

3655
02:23:09,370 --> 02:23:13,690
We actually, we do love the numerology, so

3656
02:23:13,690 --> 02:23:15,970
if you've got some fun ideas, and they

3657
02:23:15,970 --> 02:23:19,170
always come in in the second segment, all

3658
02:23:19,170 --> 02:23:21,410
kinds of new donations being made up all

3659
02:23:21,410 --> 02:23:21,850
the time.

3660
02:23:22,310 --> 02:23:24,670
It initially started with the 69-69 and

3661
02:23:24,670 --> 02:23:26,630
never stopped from there, so go to And

3662
02:23:26,630 --> 02:23:29,990
thank you again to these brand-new Executive

3663
02:23:29,990 --> 02:23:31,570
and Associate Executive Producers.

3664
02:23:31,570 --> 02:23:33,030
Our formula is this.

3665
02:23:33,850 --> 02:23:36,130
We go out, we hit people in the

3666
02:23:36,130 --> 02:23:36,390
mouth.

3667
02:23:52,210 --> 02:23:53,890
Thank you all very much.

3668
02:23:54,070 --> 02:23:54,550
Wonderful.

3669
02:23:55,630 --> 02:23:58,050
Hey, John, I've got some stablecoin stuff I

3670
02:23:58,050 --> 02:23:58,930
want to share with you.

3671
02:23:59,630 --> 02:24:00,710
Oh, I'm all ears.

3672
02:24:01,570 --> 02:24:05,030
So there is a bill in Congress right

3673
02:24:05,030 --> 02:24:05,290
now.

3674
02:24:05,370 --> 02:24:06,890
It is the stablecoin bill.

3675
02:24:07,030 --> 02:24:08,910
We'll talk about that in a minute, but

3676
02:24:08,910 --> 02:24:10,990
throughout the past couple of weeks, I've been

3677
02:24:10,990 --> 02:24:13,770
talking about things like the Mar-a-Lago

3678
02:24:13,770 --> 02:24:17,330
Accords, understanding the strong dollar versus the weak

3679
02:24:17,330 --> 02:24:20,030
dollar, what is President Trump trying to do,

3680
02:24:20,510 --> 02:24:22,550
and the only thing I really had known

3681
02:24:22,550 --> 02:24:25,870
or knew up until recently about stablecoin is

3682
02:24:25,870 --> 02:24:28,810
the main stablecoin that is in consideration for

3683
02:24:28,810 --> 02:24:31,170
use by the U.S. government, specifically the

3684
02:24:31,170 --> 02:24:35,730
Treasury, and I presume by osmosis, the Federal

3685
02:24:35,730 --> 02:24:37,270
Reserve, is Tether.

3686
02:24:37,890 --> 02:24:40,290
And all you need to know about that

3687
02:24:40,290 --> 02:24:43,230
is a stablecoin is pegged to a dollar.

3688
02:24:43,550 --> 02:24:46,890
One stablecoin is one dollar, and it is

3689
02:24:46,890 --> 02:24:48,290
backed by U.S. Treasury.

3690
02:24:48,530 --> 02:24:53,370
So this company, Tether, they only have 40

3691
02:24:53,370 --> 02:24:54,610
people working there.

3692
02:24:54,970 --> 02:24:58,930
All they're doing is they're buying massive amounts

3693
02:24:58,930 --> 02:25:02,390
of Treasury's, short-term Treasury, so T-bills,

3694
02:25:02,510 --> 02:25:06,770
American debt, and they're making hundreds of millions

3695
02:25:06,770 --> 02:25:09,750
of dollars based upon the interest rate, and

3696
02:25:09,750 --> 02:25:12,730
for every single dollar they buy in Treasury,

3697
02:25:13,210 --> 02:25:14,190
they make a stablecoin.

3698
02:25:14,590 --> 02:25:16,450
So it's really a way to make more

3699
02:25:16,450 --> 02:25:19,470
U.S. dollars of the digital kind, and

3700
02:25:19,470 --> 02:25:21,750
I've learned a lot about this, and we're

3701
02:25:21,750 --> 02:25:23,750
going to start with Planet Money, so it's

3702
02:25:23,750 --> 02:25:26,490
kind of a mainstream show from NPR, and

3703
02:25:26,490 --> 02:25:28,050
it has a little bit of talk about

3704
02:25:28,050 --> 02:25:30,550
stablecoin and the Mar-a-Lago Accords.

3705
02:25:30,730 --> 02:25:33,330
Then there's what we've dubbed the weak dollar

3706
02:25:33,330 --> 02:25:33,790
school.

3707
02:25:34,230 --> 02:25:37,070
Essentially because people around the world use the

3708
02:25:37,070 --> 02:25:39,990
dollar so much, that pushes up the dollar's

3709
02:25:39,990 --> 02:25:42,230
value and actually hurts American exporters.

3710
02:25:42,870 --> 02:25:44,870
So the weak dollar school wants to see

3711
02:25:44,870 --> 02:25:46,890
the American dollar devalued.

3712
02:25:47,290 --> 02:25:49,070
This school of thought is led by the

3713
02:25:49,070 --> 02:25:51,370
chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, a

3714
02:25:51,370 --> 02:25:52,570
guy named Stephen Myron.

3715
02:25:53,250 --> 02:25:54,950
More than half the world's trade is done

3716
02:25:54,950 --> 02:25:57,970
in dollars, even when neither country trading is

3717
02:25:57,970 --> 02:26:00,610
the U.S. Simon boils the weak dollar

3718
02:26:00,610 --> 02:26:01,810
school down to this.

3719
02:26:02,270 --> 02:26:04,650
The cost for America in doing this is

3720
02:26:04,650 --> 02:26:06,270
that you have a dollar that has been

3721
02:26:06,270 --> 02:26:06,810
distorted.

3722
02:26:07,530 --> 02:26:10,650
In his view, basically this means overvalued, and

3723
02:26:10,650 --> 02:26:13,350
that has held back American exporters.

3724
02:26:14,070 --> 02:26:16,310
A strong dollar means that American consumers can

3725
02:26:16,310 --> 02:26:18,950
afford to buy more stuff from overseas, and

3726
02:26:18,950 --> 02:26:21,830
so American factories find it harder to compete

3727
02:26:21,830 --> 02:26:23,250
with these cheap imports.

3728
02:26:23,250 --> 02:26:27,290
And so there's different ways that other countries

3729
02:26:27,290 --> 02:26:29,310
can begin to address this problem.

3730
02:26:29,490 --> 02:26:32,650
They could basically agree to buy more American

3731
02:26:32,650 --> 02:26:33,330
products.

3732
02:26:33,710 --> 02:26:35,530
They could invest more in America.

3733
02:26:36,210 --> 02:26:38,390
One solution that he expressed, which I think

3734
02:26:38,390 --> 02:26:40,330
is a little bit tongue-in-cheek, is

3735
02:26:40,330 --> 02:26:42,790
that they could just send checks directly to

3736
02:26:42,790 --> 02:26:45,290
the U.S. Treasury to basically pay them

3737
02:26:45,290 --> 02:26:46,330
a fee for services.

3738
02:26:47,850 --> 02:26:50,830
Or alternatively, America could impose tariffs.

3739
02:26:51,390 --> 02:26:53,950
The big idea in Stephen Myron's paper is

3740
02:26:53,950 --> 02:26:56,590
that leaders of countries from around the world

3741
02:26:56,590 --> 02:26:59,570
would descend on South Florida, make a grand

3742
02:26:59,570 --> 02:27:01,590
deal with President Trump to help weaken the

3743
02:27:01,590 --> 02:27:03,990
dollar, and this would be called the Mar

3744
02:27:03,990 --> 02:27:04,930
-a-Lago Accord.

3745
02:27:05,290 --> 02:27:07,390
You can see how it's something that appeals

3746
02:27:07,390 --> 02:27:08,270
to President Trump.

3747
02:27:08,330 --> 02:27:11,670
It kind of intellectualizes his instinctual view that

3748
02:27:11,670 --> 02:27:13,270
America has been wronged.

3749
02:27:14,110 --> 02:27:14,510
Okay.

3750
02:27:14,830 --> 02:27:18,190
So the problem we have in America is

3751
02:27:18,190 --> 02:27:21,270
because everybody wants our dollars, everybody uses our

3752
02:27:21,270 --> 02:27:23,910
dollars, the dollar is very strong against other

3753
02:27:23,910 --> 02:27:27,210
currencies, and therefore our products, when we want

3754
02:27:27,210 --> 02:27:29,470
to export them, are too expensive.

3755
02:27:29,470 --> 02:27:31,530
We're not like the cheap Chinese crap.

3756
02:27:32,230 --> 02:27:36,290
That's why I believe the temporary measure is

3757
02:27:36,290 --> 02:27:37,050
these tariffs.

3758
02:27:37,850 --> 02:27:40,470
Now, what I've learned is, and I've heard

3759
02:27:40,470 --> 02:27:42,750
this term so many times, euro-dollar, I

3760
02:27:42,750 --> 02:27:44,190
never understood what it meant.

3761
02:27:44,470 --> 02:27:47,730
The difference between the American dollar we have

3762
02:27:47,730 --> 02:27:49,890
here in America and the euro-dollar is

3763
02:27:49,890 --> 02:27:50,730
exactly that.

3764
02:27:50,730 --> 02:27:54,070
A euro-dollar is every dollar that is

3765
02:27:54,070 --> 02:27:57,450
in banks or in financial systems outside the

3766
02:27:57,450 --> 02:28:00,730
U.S., and it's a lot of money,

3767
02:28:01,270 --> 02:28:05,690
and this money really hurts us, particularly in

3768
02:28:05,690 --> 02:28:08,450
the hands of China, because they control how

3769
02:28:08,450 --> 02:28:11,310
strong our dollar is by how much they

3770
02:28:11,310 --> 02:28:13,030
use it, where they send it, how much

3771
02:28:13,030 --> 02:28:14,090
they buy, etc.

3772
02:28:14,630 --> 02:28:18,450
Here is analyst Matt Pines explaining a little

3773
02:28:18,450 --> 02:28:21,530
bit about the dangers of other countries holding

3774
02:28:21,530 --> 02:28:25,410
large quantities of dollars, in this case, euro

3775
02:28:25,410 --> 02:28:25,850
-dollars.

3776
02:28:25,910 --> 02:28:27,630
Don't be confused by the euro part.

3777
02:28:27,930 --> 02:28:29,990
If it's outside of America, it's a euro

3778
02:28:29,990 --> 02:28:30,350
-dollar.

3779
02:28:30,690 --> 02:28:34,030
There's flows of goods coming into the United

3780
02:28:34,030 --> 02:28:37,950
States and flows of dollars going overseas, and

3781
02:28:37,950 --> 02:28:40,410
a lot of those dollars are pouring into

3782
02:28:40,410 --> 02:28:43,170
China, and then China, as an entity, as

3783
02:28:43,170 --> 02:28:44,850
a balance sheet, is then deciding how to

3784
02:28:44,850 --> 02:28:47,710
deploy those dollars, and in some ways, it's

3785
02:28:47,710 --> 02:28:50,150
deploying them into domestic investment, in some ways,

3786
02:28:50,230 --> 02:28:52,590
it's deploying them into overseas investment, like Belt

3787
02:28:52,590 --> 02:28:54,250
and Road Initiative, but in other ways, it's

3788
02:28:54,250 --> 02:28:56,970
also redeploying them back into the U.S.

3789
02:28:56,990 --> 02:28:59,990
and other advanced financial markets into financial assets,

3790
02:29:00,430 --> 02:29:03,250
into our NASDAQ, into our real estate, into

3791
02:29:03,250 --> 02:29:04,110
our farmland.

3792
02:29:04,550 --> 02:29:07,190
The U.S. has watched over the past

3793
02:29:07,190 --> 02:29:09,830
few years how much of those dollars are

3794
02:29:09,830 --> 02:29:13,570
round-tripping back into the U.S., and

3795
02:29:13,570 --> 02:29:14,790
for certain elements of the U.S., that's

3796
02:29:14,790 --> 02:29:15,030
great.

3797
02:29:16,230 --> 02:29:18,750
That's an extra marginal dollar that's going into

3798
02:29:18,750 --> 02:29:22,210
NVIDIA stock, and it helps everyone's 401ks.

3799
02:29:22,490 --> 02:29:24,330
There's such a thing in the DoD, the

3800
02:29:24,330 --> 02:29:26,210
intelligence community, it's like a term of art,

3801
02:29:26,370 --> 02:29:30,190
like adversarial capital, and tracking adversarial capital is

3802
02:29:30,190 --> 02:29:32,610
a very important mission inside the United States

3803
02:29:32,610 --> 02:29:35,310
government, so they don't just see dollars going

3804
02:29:35,310 --> 02:29:37,770
back and forth, international trade and financial investment

3805
02:29:37,770 --> 02:29:42,450
as just a fundamentally neutral cycle of trade

3806
02:29:42,450 --> 02:29:42,930
and investment.

3807
02:29:42,930 --> 02:29:45,630
They see it as a security issue, especially

3808
02:29:45,630 --> 02:29:48,270
if you see some of these flows come

3809
02:29:48,270 --> 02:29:51,670
with invisible strings attached, or often those capital

3810
02:29:51,670 --> 02:29:54,530
flows have implicitly or explicitly corrupt the political

3811
02:29:54,530 --> 02:29:56,910
systems that they get deployed in, and they

3812
02:29:56,910 --> 02:30:01,550
shape, over time, the political systems in the

3813
02:30:01,550 --> 02:30:01,790
West.

3814
02:30:02,430 --> 02:30:04,650
We've seen stories in Canada and Australia, even

3815
02:30:04,650 --> 02:30:07,230
in the U.S., New Zealand, even Japan,

3816
02:30:07,410 --> 02:30:09,450
South Korea, Taiwan, a lot of these countries

3817
02:30:09,450 --> 02:30:12,530
that are very much at the tipping point

3818
02:30:12,530 --> 02:30:15,350
of where to shape strategic opinion among key

3819
02:30:15,350 --> 02:30:17,330
decision makers.

3820
02:30:18,230 --> 02:30:21,770
So, what I understand of this stablecoin bill,

3821
02:30:22,070 --> 02:30:24,930
which is now in Congress, is the idea

3822
02:30:24,930 --> 02:30:27,510
is to make all the euro dollars, everything

3823
02:30:27,510 --> 02:30:30,970
that's not in America, make those stablecoin, which

3824
02:30:30,970 --> 02:30:33,670
will be backed by U.S. Treasuries, so

3825
02:30:33,670 --> 02:30:37,050
they are backed by something that is supposedly

3826
02:30:37,050 --> 02:30:40,590
really secure and really good, and that those

3827
02:30:40,590 --> 02:30:43,690
dollars, because they're digital, can be completely tracked.

3828
02:30:43,690 --> 02:30:45,490
We know if someone's trying to buy off

3829
02:30:45,490 --> 02:30:48,050
politicians, and you will not be allowed to

3830
02:30:48,050 --> 02:30:50,730
use the U.S. dollars in America dollars

3831
02:30:50,730 --> 02:30:53,370
outside of the United States if you want

3832
02:30:53,370 --> 02:30:53,830
the dollar.

3833
02:30:54,430 --> 02:30:57,290
That way, you get the stablecoin, which basically

3834
02:30:57,290 --> 02:30:59,710
is a little piece of a U.S.

3835
02:30:59,830 --> 02:31:01,490
Treasury, which equals a dollar.

3836
02:31:02,010 --> 02:31:04,430
And so, here's Caitlin Long to explain the

3837
02:31:04,430 --> 02:31:05,490
stablecoin bill.

3838
02:31:05,650 --> 02:31:07,510
The stablecoin bill is going to create, for

3839
02:31:07,510 --> 02:31:10,810
the first time, an endorsed differential between an

3840
02:31:10,810 --> 02:31:12,510
offshore dollar and an onshore dollar.

3841
02:31:12,510 --> 02:31:15,230
The Fed, and particularly because of the control

3842
02:31:15,230 --> 02:31:16,870
of the European banks on the euro-dollar

3843
02:31:16,870 --> 02:31:18,150
market, what is a euro-dollar?

3844
02:31:18,530 --> 02:31:21,170
It goes back to the 1950s when Russia

3845
02:31:21,170 --> 02:31:23,510
didn't want to hold, during the Cold War,

3846
02:31:23,670 --> 02:31:25,370
its dollars in a U.S. bank because

3847
02:31:25,370 --> 02:31:26,850
it was afraid they'd be confiscated.

3848
02:31:27,070 --> 02:31:29,390
So it got the European banks to agree

3849
02:31:29,390 --> 02:31:30,950
to take U.S. dollar deposits.

3850
02:31:31,490 --> 02:31:33,490
So there was this huge offshore market which

3851
02:31:33,490 --> 02:31:35,990
is actually as big, if not bigger, than

3852
02:31:35,990 --> 02:31:37,450
the onshore U.S. dollar market.

3853
02:31:37,750 --> 02:31:38,230
It is big.

3854
02:31:38,750 --> 02:31:41,070
And to your point, it hasn't been in

3855
02:31:41,070 --> 02:31:41,870
control of the Fed.

3856
02:31:41,870 --> 02:31:45,450
Well, the Fed is now arrested control over

3857
02:31:45,450 --> 02:31:46,450
interest rates.

3858
02:31:47,310 --> 02:31:50,190
The most important interest rate was until recently

3859
02:31:50,190 --> 02:31:50,610
Libor.

3860
02:31:50,750 --> 02:31:51,430
It's now SOFR.

3861
02:31:51,850 --> 02:31:53,870
And it used to be unsecured, priced in

3862
02:31:53,870 --> 02:31:54,110
London.

3863
02:31:54,290 --> 02:31:55,990
It's now secured, priced in New York.

3864
02:31:56,550 --> 02:31:57,630
Okay, now here comes Tether.

3865
02:31:58,950 --> 02:32:03,490
Tether is a company that, for all the

3866
02:32:03,490 --> 02:32:06,750
allegations around it related to money laundering, et

3867
02:32:06,750 --> 02:32:07,210
cetera, et cetera.

3868
02:32:07,410 --> 02:32:11,570
Now, what's fascinating to me is that Congress

3869
02:32:11,570 --> 02:32:14,910
is about to ensconce this by saying, okay,

3870
02:32:15,170 --> 02:32:19,270
you can be an offshore issuer and you

3871
02:32:19,270 --> 02:32:20,950
don't have to do all the same know

3872
02:32:20,950 --> 02:32:25,010
-your-customer and anti-money laundering rules particularly

3873
02:32:25,010 --> 02:32:26,270
that a bank has to do.

3874
02:32:26,330 --> 02:32:27,610
A bank has to do what's something called

3875
02:32:27,610 --> 02:32:29,470
CIP up front.

3876
02:32:29,650 --> 02:32:31,810
You have to, before you onboard a customer

3877
02:32:31,810 --> 02:32:33,530
to a bank, you have to do all

3878
02:32:33,530 --> 02:32:38,550
the know-your-customer and enhanced customer information

3879
02:32:38,550 --> 02:32:40,830
program up front.

3880
02:32:41,050 --> 02:32:42,790
Fintechs don't have to do that and Lord

3881
02:32:42,790 --> 02:32:44,810
knows an offshore company does not.

3882
02:32:45,130 --> 02:32:48,090
And that offshore company will be Cantor Fitzgerald,

3883
02:32:48,350 --> 02:32:49,510
Lutnick's company.

3884
02:32:50,010 --> 02:32:53,610
They're the ones that are the, they hold

3885
02:32:53,610 --> 02:32:57,590
all of the treasuries for this Tether stablecoin.

3886
02:32:58,270 --> 02:33:02,430
This thing is outrageously popular all across the

3887
02:33:02,430 --> 02:33:02,610
world.

3888
02:33:02,730 --> 02:33:05,750
I didn't even realize how big this stablecoin

3889
02:33:05,750 --> 02:33:06,110
is.

3890
02:33:06,110 --> 02:33:09,350
It's being used by shop merchants, by regular

3891
02:33:09,350 --> 02:33:12,490
people everywhere because their own currency is so

3892
02:33:12,490 --> 02:33:13,010
unstable.

3893
02:33:13,010 --> 02:33:16,890
They prefer to use the Tether stablecoin and

3894
02:33:16,890 --> 02:33:18,630
they can easily pay with it.

3895
02:33:18,690 --> 02:33:19,770
They're already doing it.

3896
02:33:19,830 --> 02:33:20,830
It's just on your phone.

3897
02:33:20,990 --> 02:33:21,890
It's back and forth.

3898
02:33:22,410 --> 02:33:24,950
And here's a quick clip about how big

3899
02:33:24,950 --> 02:33:27,490
stablecoin, particularly Tether, really is.

3900
02:33:27,710 --> 02:33:29,810
Tether is pushing the U.S. dollar out

3901
02:33:29,810 --> 02:33:34,310
into emerging markets down to the communities that

3902
02:33:34,310 --> 02:33:36,690
nobody has banked before because nobody could figure

3903
02:33:36,690 --> 02:33:37,430
out how to bank them.

3904
02:33:37,770 --> 02:33:39,850
And those communities banked them profitably.

3905
02:33:39,970 --> 02:33:42,670
And those communities, Tether did, hats off to

3906
02:33:42,670 --> 02:33:43,350
them for doing that.

3907
02:33:43,570 --> 02:33:46,370
Those communities have access to the U.S.

3908
02:33:46,390 --> 02:33:47,650
dollar for the first time.

3909
02:33:48,030 --> 02:33:51,370
And in most of those emerging markets, they

3910
02:33:51,370 --> 02:33:52,470
would much rather have a U.S. dollar

3911
02:33:52,470 --> 02:33:53,590
than their own local currency.

3912
02:33:53,910 --> 02:33:56,350
And Tether has built this distribution channel and

3913
02:33:56,350 --> 02:33:57,750
there is nobody competing with them.

3914
02:33:57,870 --> 02:33:59,190
And they are pushing the U.S. dollar

3915
02:33:59,190 --> 02:34:01,950
out into the distribution channel and they're recycling

3916
02:34:01,950 --> 02:34:06,170
those tiny amounts of money from working class

3917
02:34:06,170 --> 02:34:07,250
and emerging markets.

3918
02:34:07,890 --> 02:34:09,650
And I think they have 400 million users.

3919
02:34:09,850 --> 02:34:11,270
It's a stunning number of users.

3920
02:34:11,690 --> 02:34:13,310
They're the biggest financial company in the world

3921
02:34:13,310 --> 02:34:15,370
right now and just keep getting bigger.

3922
02:34:15,870 --> 02:34:18,750
And they are recycling all of those flows

3923
02:34:18,750 --> 02:34:20,590
back into the U.S. treasury market.

3924
02:34:20,990 --> 02:34:21,890
What is that doing?

3925
02:34:21,930 --> 02:34:24,130
Because those are not going to be panic

3926
02:34:24,130 --> 02:34:24,630
sellers.

3927
02:34:25,230 --> 02:34:26,250
What is that doing?

3928
02:34:26,310 --> 02:34:28,290
That is increasing the resilience of the U

3929
02:34:28,290 --> 02:34:29,150
.S. treasury market.

3930
02:34:29,570 --> 02:34:31,310
And that is exactly the point.

3931
02:34:31,310 --> 02:34:34,710
And making the dollar strong as a currency

3932
02:34:34,710 --> 02:34:38,170
and usable outside the U.S. with the

3933
02:34:38,170 --> 02:34:38,850
euro dollar.

3934
02:34:39,450 --> 02:34:42,690
And we can then control our own interest

3935
02:34:42,690 --> 02:34:47,050
rate because LIBOR, the London Interbank Offered Rate,

3936
02:34:47,170 --> 02:34:50,190
which was the standard, if you've ever looked

3937
02:34:50,190 --> 02:34:53,490
at your car statement or your mortgage, it'll

3938
02:34:53,490 --> 02:34:56,050
say, you know, on an adjustable rate, it'll

3939
02:34:56,050 --> 02:34:58,790
say, we offer you this money at LIBOR

3940
02:34:58,790 --> 02:35:00,930
plus 1% or plus 2%.

3941
02:35:00,930 --> 02:35:04,030
We remember there was a big scandal with

3942
02:35:04,030 --> 02:35:05,430
LIBOR in 2008.

3943
02:35:05,990 --> 02:35:09,710
LIBOR was already set to be replaced and

3944
02:35:09,710 --> 02:35:13,130
killed off by something called SOFR, the Secured

3945
02:35:13,130 --> 02:35:17,190
Overnight Financing Rate from the Federal Reserve Bank

3946
02:35:17,190 --> 02:35:17,810
of New York.

3947
02:35:18,530 --> 02:35:20,930
And so this is Bloomberg seven years ago.

3948
02:35:21,050 --> 02:35:22,210
This is how long this is in the

3949
02:35:22,210 --> 02:35:25,010
making, talking about this new way to set

3950
02:35:25,010 --> 02:35:28,490
interest rates, not by British banks and JP

3951
02:35:28,490 --> 02:35:30,330
Morgan, they were part of that, who were

3952
02:35:30,330 --> 02:35:32,490
just doing willy-nilly whatever they wanted, which

3953
02:35:32,490 --> 02:35:35,190
kept us not in control of interest rates

3954
02:35:35,190 --> 02:35:35,810
in America.

3955
02:35:36,910 --> 02:35:38,930
They were already talking about this SOFR.

3956
02:35:39,190 --> 02:35:41,610
Ed, let's start first with the SOFR situation,

3957
02:35:42,030 --> 02:35:43,590
which I have to confess, I'm not an

3958
02:35:43,590 --> 02:35:44,990
expert on this, but it's sort of oopsie.

3959
02:35:44,990 --> 02:35:45,590
Nobody is, David.

3960
02:35:45,730 --> 02:35:46,550
Isn't that what you say?

3961
02:35:46,670 --> 02:35:47,030
Oopsie.

3962
02:35:47,310 --> 02:35:49,390
So the Fed comes out with this new

3963
02:35:49,390 --> 02:35:51,150
alternative to LIBOR, and this is going to

3964
02:35:51,150 --> 02:35:53,270
be, they're trying to compete with some other

3965
02:35:53,270 --> 02:35:54,670
alternatives over in Europe to say, this is

3966
02:35:54,670 --> 02:35:55,950
the way you should peg your interest rates.

3967
02:35:56,290 --> 02:35:58,150
And then they discover, oh, we included some

3968
02:35:58,150 --> 02:35:59,570
transactions we were supposed to be including.

3969
02:36:00,170 --> 02:36:01,270
I call it SOFR.

3970
02:36:01,810 --> 02:36:03,750
I thought that sounded better.

3971
02:36:03,970 --> 02:36:05,910
I've heard SOFR, I've heard SOFR, I've heard

3972
02:36:05,910 --> 02:36:06,150
SOFR.

3973
02:36:06,310 --> 02:36:08,130
So far, so bad.

3974
02:36:08,730 --> 02:36:11,130
So it's kind of a case of better

3975
02:36:11,130 --> 02:36:11,730
the devil you know.

3976
02:36:11,850 --> 02:36:13,410
Look, LIBOR, as we know, was not perfect.

3977
02:36:13,510 --> 02:36:14,710
In fact, it was far from perfect.

3978
02:36:14,930 --> 02:36:17,150
But this is, as you say, the alternative,

3979
02:36:17,390 --> 02:36:18,470
and it's already gone wrong.

3980
02:36:18,570 --> 02:36:20,070
Two weeks in and it's already gone wrong.

3981
02:36:20,150 --> 02:36:22,590
So what's happened here is essentially the Fed

3982
02:36:22,590 --> 02:36:23,890
have come out and they've said some forward

3983
02:36:23,890 --> 02:36:27,930
settling overnight treasury repo transactions were included where

3984
02:36:27,930 --> 02:36:28,970
they shouldn't have been included.

3985
02:36:29,130 --> 02:36:30,450
So all of the data for that two

3986
02:36:30,450 --> 02:36:31,830
week period is botched.

3987
02:36:32,050 --> 02:36:33,430
Now they said they're not going to republish

3988
02:36:33,430 --> 02:36:35,190
it, but they are going to publish alongside

3989
02:36:35,190 --> 02:36:37,350
it, sort of theoretical data of what it

3990
02:36:37,350 --> 02:36:39,110
would look like if you stripped out those

3991
02:36:39,110 --> 02:36:39,530
transactions.

3992
02:36:40,030 --> 02:36:41,310
So it is a bit of a mess.

3993
02:36:41,350 --> 02:36:42,590
And I think the real challenge is this.

3994
02:36:42,870 --> 02:36:44,970
A lot of people obviously still use LIBOR

3995
02:36:44,970 --> 02:36:45,690
as the benchmark.

3996
02:36:46,410 --> 02:36:48,610
That's going to end in 2021, because the

3997
02:36:48,610 --> 02:36:50,670
SCA and the UK have said that at

3998
02:36:50,670 --> 02:36:51,670
that point it will disappear.

3999
02:36:52,290 --> 02:36:54,330
How do you get people to migrate across

4000
02:36:54,330 --> 02:36:56,850
to something if it shows even at this

4001
02:36:56,850 --> 02:36:58,330
sort of very early stage that it's unreliable?

4002
02:36:58,450 --> 02:37:00,170
This thing needs to be absolutely rock solid

4003
02:37:00,170 --> 02:37:01,750
if it's going to convince people to migrate

4004
02:37:01,750 --> 02:37:02,010
across.

4005
02:37:02,070 --> 02:37:04,570
It needs the derivative projects, which supposedly those

4006
02:37:04,570 --> 02:37:05,210
products are coming.

4007
02:37:05,370 --> 02:37:08,170
So this thing has migrated.

4008
02:37:08,550 --> 02:37:12,870
As of March 31st, 2025, the last LIBOR

4009
02:37:12,870 --> 02:37:16,250
contracts, the last derivatives were finally all settled,

4010
02:37:16,430 --> 02:37:17,330
taken care of.

4011
02:37:17,430 --> 02:37:20,830
And now SOFR is the new interest rate

4012
02:37:20,830 --> 02:37:24,950
setting standard for interest rates, which is completely

4013
02:37:24,950 --> 02:37:28,070
in control now of the Federal Reserve Bank

4014
02:37:28,070 --> 02:37:28,590
of New York.

4015
02:37:28,690 --> 02:37:32,550
And this timing I find interesting because on

4016
02:37:32,550 --> 02:37:34,610
April 2nd, he said he wanted to do

4017
02:37:34,610 --> 02:37:36,050
on the 1st, but it came on the

4018
02:37:36,050 --> 02:37:36,470
2nd.

4019
02:37:36,770 --> 02:37:39,910
President Trump talked about, My fellow Americans, this

4020
02:37:39,910 --> 02:37:41,870
is liberation day.

4021
02:37:42,430 --> 02:37:44,330
And maybe it was under the guise of

4022
02:37:44,330 --> 02:37:45,830
the tariffs, but I think it was really

4023
02:37:45,830 --> 02:37:48,510
about this interest rate that is now being

4024
02:37:48,510 --> 02:37:49,490
set by us.

4025
02:37:49,670 --> 02:37:51,670
We're in control of it and we're leaving

4026
02:37:51,670 --> 02:37:55,030
the stable coin as the ghetto dollar over

4027
02:37:55,030 --> 02:37:56,810
there for the Euro dollar and they can

4028
02:37:56,810 --> 02:37:57,970
do whatever they want.

4029
02:37:58,190 --> 02:37:59,550
It's all backed by us.

4030
02:37:59,750 --> 02:38:01,710
And this stable coin has a lot of

4031
02:38:01,710 --> 02:38:04,530
properties that make it very interesting, not just

4032
02:38:04,530 --> 02:38:06,510
overseas, but internally as well.

4033
02:38:06,670 --> 02:38:09,150
And by the way, Tether created the killer

4034
02:38:09,150 --> 02:38:11,070
use case, which is for the US dollar.

4035
02:38:11,570 --> 02:38:12,470
And a lot of people look at it

4036
02:38:12,470 --> 02:38:14,250
and say, why do you need a blockchain

4037
02:38:14,250 --> 02:38:14,750
for that?

4038
02:38:14,790 --> 02:38:15,910
That's an inefficient database.

4039
02:38:16,150 --> 02:38:17,830
Yes, of course, it's an inefficient database.

4040
02:38:18,310 --> 02:38:19,530
But what were they able to do?

4041
02:38:19,530 --> 02:38:22,930
Create incredible network effects by having 400 million

4042
02:38:22,930 --> 02:38:23,750
users globally.

4043
02:38:23,870 --> 02:38:25,710
That's bigger than the United States.

4044
02:38:26,090 --> 02:38:27,350
Incredible network effects.

4045
02:38:27,630 --> 02:38:28,830
That's what we're tapping into.

4046
02:38:29,330 --> 02:38:30,510
What are the greenfields?

4047
02:38:30,690 --> 02:38:33,150
The biggest one is putting that into the

4048
02:38:33,150 --> 02:38:34,450
regulated banking industry.

4049
02:38:35,310 --> 02:38:37,970
Everybody right now is forced into FedWire, ACH,

4050
02:38:38,250 --> 02:38:39,750
and a little bit of FedNow, but that

4051
02:38:39,750 --> 02:38:42,590
was such a controlled closed system that it

4052
02:38:42,590 --> 02:38:43,770
hasn't really taken off.

4053
02:38:44,230 --> 02:38:45,190
FedWire and ACH?

4054
02:38:45,790 --> 02:38:49,830
Hell, stable coins are faster, cheaper, more auditable,

4055
02:38:50,090 --> 02:38:54,630
more programmable, safer from an IT security perspective,

4056
02:38:54,730 --> 02:38:56,830
I would argue, for a whole host of

4057
02:38:56,830 --> 02:38:57,170
reasons.

4058
02:38:57,410 --> 02:39:00,190
This is a game changer to push that

4059
02:39:00,190 --> 02:39:03,830
into the greenfield of the traditional banking system.

4060
02:39:04,190 --> 02:39:06,090
So to wrap it up, I think the

4061
02:39:06,090 --> 02:39:09,470
stable coin gambit is to keep the US

4062
02:39:09,470 --> 02:39:12,770
dollar as the strongest, most secure, backed by

4063
02:39:12,770 --> 02:39:17,270
US Treasury's dollar everywhere in the world, but

4064
02:39:17,270 --> 02:39:21,030
we, through SOFR, will control our own interest

4065
02:39:21,030 --> 02:39:21,430
rates.

4066
02:39:21,810 --> 02:39:25,090
It's a big, big, long game gamble.

4067
02:39:25,490 --> 02:39:27,070
And if Trump can pull it off, I

4068
02:39:27,070 --> 02:39:28,230
don't know if it's going to be good

4069
02:39:28,230 --> 02:39:30,650
or not, but it's definitely going to change

4070
02:39:30,650 --> 02:39:32,670
the way finance works throughout the world.

4071
02:39:32,970 --> 02:39:35,130
And that's all I know for now.

4072
02:39:39,930 --> 02:39:41,390
How does this benefit bankers?

4073
02:39:43,570 --> 02:39:47,370
I believe that bankers, part of the SBA

4074
02:39:47,370 --> 02:39:50,010
Rule 12, that bankers can now issue their

4075
02:39:50,010 --> 02:39:51,710
own version of stable coin.

4076
02:39:52,890 --> 02:39:55,690
And so they can do whatever they want.

4077
02:39:57,310 --> 02:39:59,970
They like buying Treasuries, so I'll buy a

4078
02:39:59,970 --> 02:40:01,630
Treasury, I can issue a stable coin.

4079
02:40:02,210 --> 02:40:04,450
And I can issue it domestically, I can

4080
02:40:04,450 --> 02:40:05,490
issue it internationally.

4081
02:40:05,990 --> 02:40:08,230
I think that's where they come into play.

4082
02:40:08,950 --> 02:40:10,930
How would this differ from the olden days

4083
02:40:10,930 --> 02:40:13,350
when the banks used to actually print their

4084
02:40:13,350 --> 02:40:13,830
own money?

4085
02:40:16,250 --> 02:40:18,810
Well, the difference is, at that point, they

4086
02:40:18,810 --> 02:40:22,930
had to have gold to back their own

4087
02:40:22,930 --> 02:40:23,250
money.

4088
02:40:23,670 --> 02:40:25,670
And now you have to have Treasuries, which

4089
02:40:25,670 --> 02:40:27,370
is probably just as wonky.

4090
02:40:27,970 --> 02:40:29,790
That's why I'm not sure it's a great

4091
02:40:29,790 --> 02:40:30,210
idea.

4092
02:40:30,350 --> 02:40:31,950
I'm not saying it's a great idea.

4093
02:40:32,090 --> 02:40:34,870
I think it's what they're trying to do.

4094
02:40:35,070 --> 02:40:37,850
It just, you know, it's complicated.

4095
02:40:38,990 --> 02:40:40,690
I didn't even know what a euro dollar

4096
02:40:40,690 --> 02:40:41,810
was until yesterday.

4097
02:40:47,440 --> 02:40:48,880
We got a call from the government.

4098
02:40:49,880 --> 02:40:50,580
Shut up, Curry.

4099
02:40:53,880 --> 02:40:54,680
There you go.

4100
02:40:54,900 --> 02:40:57,160
That's my stable coin presentation.

4101
02:40:58,520 --> 02:40:58,640
Okay.

4102
02:40:59,060 --> 02:41:00,280
It wasn't as bad as I thought.

4103
02:41:00,560 --> 02:41:01,420
Oh, well, thank you.

4104
02:41:01,560 --> 02:41:03,940
That, coming from you, is a huge endorsement.

4105
02:41:04,180 --> 02:41:05,520
I don't know about that.

4106
02:41:06,080 --> 02:41:06,860
There's the government.

4107
02:41:07,020 --> 02:41:07,980
Do you need to talk to them?

4108
02:41:08,160 --> 02:41:09,860
I'm going to go pick that up, but

4109
02:41:09,860 --> 02:41:11,280
why don't you play the clip about the

4110
02:41:11,280 --> 02:41:13,400
impeachment, the partial impeachment announcement.

4111
02:41:13,660 --> 02:41:14,040
Okay.

4112
02:41:15,300 --> 02:41:16,100
Partial impeachment.

4113
02:41:18,040 --> 02:41:18,440
Partial.

4114
02:41:18,820 --> 02:41:19,640
Impeach impartial.

4115
02:41:19,640 --> 02:41:21,500
This is Congressman Sri Thanedar.

4116
02:41:22,280 --> 02:41:25,640
Donald Trump has already done real damage to

4117
02:41:25,640 --> 02:41:30,080
our democracy, but defying a unanimous 9-0

4118
02:41:30,080 --> 02:41:31,240
Supreme Court ruling?

4119
02:41:31,460 --> 02:41:33,460
That has to be the final straw.

4120
02:41:33,760 --> 02:41:36,240
It's time we impeach Donald J.

4121
02:41:36,580 --> 02:41:36,860
Trump.

4122
02:41:37,320 --> 02:41:41,140
The court said the wrongfully deported Kilmer Garcia

4123
02:41:41,140 --> 02:41:44,100
must be allowed to return and receive due

4124
02:41:44,100 --> 02:41:44,720
process.

4125
02:41:45,260 --> 02:41:46,660
Trump ignored it.

4126
02:41:46,940 --> 02:41:48,500
He ignored the Constitution.

4127
02:41:48,500 --> 02:41:52,600
He ignored the very checks and balances that

4128
02:41:52,600 --> 02:41:54,480
keep our democracy intact.

4129
02:41:55,400 --> 02:41:57,240
This isn't an isolated incident.

4130
02:41:57,660 --> 02:42:00,660
It's part of a dangerous, deliberate pattern.

4131
02:42:01,140 --> 02:42:05,480
That's why today I introduced a resolution to

4132
02:42:05,480 --> 02:42:07,480
impeach Donald J.

4133
02:42:07,880 --> 02:42:11,880
Trump, outlining seven articles of impeachment.

4134
02:42:13,640 --> 02:42:18,840
Article one, obstruction of justice and abuse of

4135
02:42:18,840 --> 02:42:20,060
executive power.

4136
02:42:20,620 --> 02:42:25,680
From denying due process to unlawful deportations, Trump

4137
02:42:25,680 --> 02:42:27,660
defied court orders.

4138
02:42:27,940 --> 02:42:29,800
Is this a call you got earlier today?

4139
02:42:30,100 --> 02:42:31,640
Is this a robocall?

4140
02:42:33,830 --> 02:42:37,290
The call I got was the arborist canceling.

4141
02:42:38,710 --> 02:42:39,390
Oh, no.

4142
02:42:39,590 --> 02:42:41,510
I've been waiting months for this.

4143
02:42:42,030 --> 02:42:43,590
Well, you and me both.

4144
02:42:44,070 --> 02:42:45,410
Why would the arborist...

4145
02:42:45,410 --> 02:42:49,010
So, John has a branch which has been

4146
02:42:49,010 --> 02:42:50,970
squeaking against his window for months.

4147
02:42:51,650 --> 02:42:53,330
Sometimes I can hear it if it's windy

4148
02:42:53,330 --> 02:42:56,210
on the show, but I almost always hear

4149
02:42:56,210 --> 02:42:57,510
it after the show when I turn all

4150
02:42:57,510 --> 02:42:58,530
the noise gates off.

4151
02:42:58,570 --> 02:42:59,970
I'm like, oh, man, that thing must be

4152
02:42:59,970 --> 02:43:00,850
driving you nuts.

4153
02:43:03,710 --> 02:43:05,190
Well, it's only when you have a southerly

4154
02:43:05,190 --> 02:43:05,710
breeze.

4155
02:43:07,550 --> 02:43:09,150
So, anyway, so that's the guy.

4156
02:43:09,230 --> 02:43:10,930
He's a screwball-looking character.

4157
02:43:10,930 --> 02:43:12,530
I don't even know what he's thinking.

4158
02:43:13,190 --> 02:43:15,810
He's got a wig on, and he's like...

4159
02:43:15,810 --> 02:43:18,010
He really seriously should check this out.

4160
02:43:18,130 --> 02:43:19,010
And he went on and on.

4161
02:43:19,050 --> 02:43:20,270
He's got about eight points.

4162
02:43:21,050 --> 02:43:22,790
And it's, of course, going to go nowhere,

4163
02:43:22,830 --> 02:43:24,470
but it's making a big scene, and he

4164
02:43:24,470 --> 02:43:26,430
sounds like a moron.

4165
02:43:26,970 --> 02:43:27,830
Yeah, I would say so.

4166
02:43:27,830 --> 02:43:29,130
But that's big news, big news.

4167
02:43:29,250 --> 02:43:30,570
Big news, big news, yeah.

4168
02:43:30,650 --> 02:43:31,590
Articles of impeachment.

4169
02:43:31,810 --> 02:43:33,090
Finally, someone did it.

4170
02:43:35,210 --> 02:43:36,890
Yeah, I was waiting for Al Green, but

4171
02:43:36,890 --> 02:43:37,950
he didn't do it yet.

4172
02:43:38,250 --> 02:43:38,390
No.

4173
02:43:39,370 --> 02:43:40,230
Okay, TikTok.

4174
02:43:41,990 --> 02:43:42,390
Yay.

4175
02:43:43,950 --> 02:43:44,850
They're both short.

4176
02:43:45,010 --> 02:43:45,790
They're both under a minute.

4177
02:43:45,930 --> 02:43:46,210
Okay.

4178
02:43:46,870 --> 02:43:47,990
The dating app girl.

4179
02:43:48,610 --> 02:43:49,670
Dating app girl.

4180
02:43:49,790 --> 02:43:51,210
So, I'm scrolling the dating apps earlier, and

4181
02:43:51,210 --> 02:43:53,350
for the first 20 swipes, it's conservative, moderate,

4182
02:43:53,530 --> 02:43:55,390
conservative, moderate, apolitical, nothing.

4183
02:43:56,110 --> 02:43:57,910
Conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative, conservative,

4184
02:43:58,090 --> 02:43:59,110
conservative, moderate.

4185
02:43:59,630 --> 02:44:01,630
And to me, conservative, moderate, and apolitical, and

4186
02:44:01,630 --> 02:44:02,710
nothing is all the same thing.

4187
02:44:02,750 --> 02:44:03,430
You all are MAGA.

4188
02:44:05,210 --> 02:44:08,230
So, immediately, no, no, no, no, no, no,

4189
02:44:08,270 --> 02:44:09,150
no, no, no, no.

4190
02:44:09,150 --> 02:44:11,370
Took me 20 swipes to finally find a

4191
02:44:11,370 --> 02:44:11,650
liberal.

4192
02:44:12,430 --> 02:44:14,210
I'm like, gee, what the fuck is going

4193
02:44:14,210 --> 02:44:14,610
on?

4194
02:44:14,770 --> 02:44:16,330
Why is everybody MAGA?

4195
02:44:16,630 --> 02:44:17,930
It's not that everybody's MAGA.

4196
02:44:18,050 --> 02:44:20,070
It's the male loneliness epidemic.

4197
02:44:20,490 --> 02:44:21,930
It's because nobody wants to date them.

4198
02:44:23,410 --> 02:44:24,950
They don't make good partners.

4199
02:44:26,690 --> 02:44:28,890
That's why there's so many single ones out

4200
02:44:28,890 --> 02:44:29,130
there.

4201
02:44:32,190 --> 02:44:34,150
All the liberals are taken, not all of

4202
02:44:34,150 --> 02:44:34,310
them.

4203
02:44:34,890 --> 02:44:36,090
Obviously, there's some out there.

4204
02:44:36,390 --> 02:44:39,310
But I'd rather have no dates than ever

4205
02:44:39,310 --> 02:44:41,770
date a MAGA ever fucking again.

4206
02:44:42,050 --> 02:44:43,950
So I will scroll until my fingers fall

4207
02:44:43,950 --> 02:44:45,930
off until I can find the perfect liberal.

4208
02:44:46,170 --> 02:44:48,250
Why do they always have to cuss all

4209
02:44:48,250 --> 02:44:49,290
the time?

4210
02:44:49,370 --> 02:44:50,770
This cussing is unbelievable.

4211
02:44:51,030 --> 02:44:52,550
It's getting annoying.

4212
02:44:53,030 --> 02:44:54,530
It's very annoying, and there's nothing you can

4213
02:44:54,530 --> 02:44:55,190
do about it.

4214
02:44:55,510 --> 02:44:56,570
They won't stop it.

4215
02:44:56,830 --> 02:44:57,750
No, they won't.

4216
02:44:58,050 --> 02:44:59,390
Here's another woman.

4217
02:44:59,530 --> 02:45:02,170
This one here is complaining about her time

4218
02:45:02,170 --> 02:45:02,890
blindness.

4219
02:45:03,390 --> 02:45:05,850
Oh, time blindness.

4220
02:45:06,170 --> 02:45:07,730
Which is my favorite topic.

4221
02:45:08,530 --> 02:45:09,730
I'm time blind.

4222
02:45:09,850 --> 02:45:10,890
That's why I'm late.

4223
02:45:11,090 --> 02:45:12,850
We went through this several times in the

4224
02:45:12,850 --> 02:45:13,830
past couple of years.

4225
02:45:14,910 --> 02:45:16,870
So I just got yelled at for asking

4226
02:45:16,870 --> 02:45:18,030
a very reasonable question.

4227
02:45:18,650 --> 02:45:20,150
So I'm planning to go somewhere, and I

4228
02:45:20,150 --> 02:45:22,150
just wanted to know, are there accommodations for

4229
02:45:22,150 --> 02:45:23,810
people who struggle with time blindness and being

4230
02:45:23,810 --> 02:45:24,350
on time?

4231
02:45:25,490 --> 02:45:28,390
And then the person I was with interrupted

4232
02:45:28,390 --> 02:45:30,310
and acted like I was asking something else.

4233
02:45:30,350 --> 02:45:32,750
And then when we were done, they actually

4234
02:45:32,750 --> 02:45:34,750
started yelling at me and saying that accommodations

4235
02:45:34,750 --> 02:45:36,310
for time blindness doesn't exist.

4236
02:45:36,310 --> 02:45:37,530
And if you struggle with being on time,

4237
02:45:37,630 --> 02:45:38,930
you'll never be able to get a job,

4238
02:45:39,810 --> 02:45:41,970
provided you're trying your absolute best to be

4239
02:45:41,970 --> 02:45:42,150
there.

4240
02:45:43,130 --> 02:45:45,290
And then they're like, your stupid generation wants

4241
02:45:45,290 --> 02:45:46,330
to destroy the workplace.

4242
02:45:47,330 --> 02:45:49,290
And yeah, I think that a culture where

4243
02:45:49,290 --> 02:45:51,310
workers are just cut off because they struggle

4244
02:45:51,310 --> 02:45:54,050
with being on time when there's other solutions

4245
02:45:54,050 --> 02:45:55,370
that we can look to, I think that

4246
02:45:55,370 --> 02:45:57,050
just anybody who thinks it's okay to just

4247
02:45:57,050 --> 02:46:00,110
treat people like that, yeah, that culture needs

4248
02:46:00,110 --> 02:46:01,070
to be dismantled.

4249
02:46:01,670 --> 02:46:03,190
And then I asked that person, how can

4250
02:46:03,190 --> 02:46:05,590
you feel good about yourself upholding this kind

4251
02:46:05,590 --> 02:46:06,130
of system?

4252
02:46:06,830 --> 02:46:08,490
And then to think, I'm entitled.

4253
02:46:08,630 --> 02:46:10,370
No, if people think it's okay to treat

4254
02:46:10,370 --> 02:46:12,570
others like this, that's entitlement.

4255
02:46:13,990 --> 02:46:14,950
Oh, brother.

4256
02:46:15,470 --> 02:46:17,430
I like the way she reversed the reverse

4257
02:46:17,430 --> 02:46:18,350
roles there.

4258
02:46:19,510 --> 02:46:21,490
You're entitled because you're on time.

4259
02:46:21,890 --> 02:46:22,450
Stop it.

4260
02:46:23,750 --> 02:46:25,310
This is not healthy.

4261
02:46:25,570 --> 02:46:26,670
I'm worried about you.

4262
02:46:26,810 --> 02:46:28,350
You should not be watching too much of

4263
02:46:28,350 --> 02:46:28,550
this.

4264
02:46:28,610 --> 02:46:29,530
No, this is good stuff.

4265
02:46:29,890 --> 02:46:30,990
Everybody loves it.

4266
02:46:31,030 --> 02:46:32,370
It's all engagement farming.

4267
02:46:32,370 --> 02:46:34,070
I don't believe any of these people is

4268
02:46:34,070 --> 02:46:34,670
being honest.

4269
02:46:34,830 --> 02:46:36,110
Not a single one.

4270
02:46:36,310 --> 02:46:37,390
You think they're real.

4271
02:46:37,470 --> 02:46:39,250
I think they're all phony.

4272
02:46:39,330 --> 02:46:40,690
I think most of them are real.

4273
02:46:40,770 --> 02:46:42,070
There's a couple of phonies, but they're pretty

4274
02:46:42,070 --> 02:46:43,110
obvious when you see them.

4275
02:46:43,230 --> 02:46:43,830
Let's play this.

4276
02:46:43,890 --> 02:46:46,150
This is a, since you played that thing

4277
02:46:46,150 --> 02:46:48,150
about the stable coin, let's play this clip.

4278
02:46:48,230 --> 02:46:50,150
This is Timu versus France.

4279
02:46:50,410 --> 02:46:51,550
Oh, Timu.

4280
02:46:51,710 --> 02:46:53,750
The trade war between the US and China

4281
02:46:53,750 --> 02:46:55,270
has also affected Europe.

4282
02:46:55,670 --> 02:46:58,410
Several European countries report a surge in dumped

4283
02:46:58,410 --> 02:47:00,110
Chinese products on their market.

4284
02:47:00,110 --> 02:47:03,590
Last year, 1.5 billion parcels, mostly from

4285
02:47:03,590 --> 02:47:07,150
China, entered France, averaging just around $10 each.

4286
02:47:07,570 --> 02:47:10,430
Authorities are concerned with this trend, which poses

4287
02:47:10,430 --> 02:47:13,010
a threat not only to local producers, but

4288
02:47:13,010 --> 02:47:14,030
also to consumers.

4289
02:47:14,390 --> 02:47:16,930
On Tuesday, four French ministers unveiled a plan

4290
02:47:16,930 --> 02:47:19,010
to tackle the flood of low-cost parcels

4291
02:47:19,010 --> 02:47:19,710
from China.

4292
02:47:20,410 --> 02:47:23,430
To protect consumers, the government will triple inspections

4293
02:47:23,430 --> 02:47:27,010
this year, checking product safety, labeling, and environmental

4294
02:47:27,010 --> 02:47:27,290
claims.

4295
02:47:27,870 --> 02:47:30,110
They're also looking to the EU to end

4296
02:47:30,110 --> 02:47:34,210
customs duty exemption for parcels under $170 to

4297
02:47:34,210 --> 02:47:35,490
protect local businesses.

4298
02:47:35,950 --> 02:47:37,830
Yann Rivoy-Allant is president of the French

4299
02:47:37,830 --> 02:47:39,570
Women's Prêt-à-Porter Federation.

4300
02:47:39,730 --> 02:47:40,210
Wait a minute.

4301
02:47:40,710 --> 02:47:43,430
Is France putting something equal to tariffs in

4302
02:47:43,430 --> 02:47:44,530
place against China?

4303
02:47:44,690 --> 02:47:45,570
Is that what I'm hearing?

4304
02:47:46,130 --> 02:47:47,710
That's kind of what you're hearing, but the

4305
02:47:47,710 --> 02:47:49,930
number I thought was interesting, that in France

4306
02:47:49,930 --> 02:47:56,410
they're getting 1.5 billion packages of cheap

4307
02:47:56,410 --> 02:47:57,610
Chinese crap.

4308
02:47:58,190 --> 02:47:58,990
Cheap Chinese crap.

4309
02:47:59,330 --> 02:47:59,490
Nice.

4310
02:47:59,670 --> 02:48:02,110
He says the influx of Chinese products has

4311
02:48:02,110 --> 02:48:04,770
led to around 10,000 job losses over

4312
02:48:04,770 --> 02:48:06,790
the past two years and the closure of

4313
02:48:06,790 --> 02:48:07,970
several fashion brands.

4314
02:48:08,330 --> 02:48:10,790
He also says French fashion brands are unable

4315
02:48:10,790 --> 02:48:11,430
to compete.

4316
02:48:11,930 --> 02:48:16,690
Every week, brands send me copies of counterfeit

4317
02:48:16,690 --> 02:48:17,790
products made in China.

4318
02:48:18,310 --> 02:48:19,730
First, our designs are being stolen.

4319
02:48:20,090 --> 02:48:22,570
Second, the employees of Shane or Temu are

4320
02:48:22,570 --> 02:48:23,210
being exploited.

4321
02:48:23,210 --> 02:48:25,630
They're paid a pittance and forced to work

4322
02:48:25,630 --> 02:48:28,410
from 75 to over 100 hours a week,

4323
02:48:28,670 --> 02:48:30,710
with barely one day off a month.

4324
02:48:30,930 --> 02:48:32,010
This is clearly unacceptable.

4325
02:48:32,250 --> 02:48:34,850
They also commit tax fraud by declaring underreported

4326
02:48:34,850 --> 02:48:35,530
sales figures.

4327
02:48:36,830 --> 02:48:39,510
According to the government, over 90% of

4328
02:48:39,510 --> 02:48:41,670
these products are unsafe for consumers.

4329
02:48:41,990 --> 02:48:44,370
However, Rivoy-Allant says the new measures fall

4330
02:48:44,370 --> 02:48:46,270
far short and should be aligned with the

4331
02:48:46,270 --> 02:48:48,730
stronger U.S. actions against such platforms.

4332
02:48:48,730 --> 02:48:54,770
It's totally ridiculous compared to what the United

4333
02:48:54,770 --> 02:48:57,870
States is doing with $100 on each of

4334
02:48:57,870 --> 02:48:58,670
these packages.

4335
02:48:59,050 --> 02:49:01,010
So, we're in a situation where we know

4336
02:49:01,010 --> 02:49:03,110
that over 90% of products are dangerous

4337
02:49:03,110 --> 02:49:06,010
for the French, dangerous for consumers, for our

4338
02:49:06,010 --> 02:49:07,310
jobs, and for the planet.

4339
02:49:07,550 --> 02:49:09,570
And yet, we're putting in place a small

4340
02:49:09,570 --> 02:49:12,030
measure with barely 10% tax potential.

4341
02:49:12,330 --> 02:49:15,770
It's really amazing, the junk, the cheap junk

4342
02:49:15,770 --> 02:49:16,650
we have from China.

4343
02:49:16,770 --> 02:49:19,050
This microphone I'm using right now, cheap junk

4344
02:49:19,050 --> 02:49:19,590
from China.

4345
02:49:19,830 --> 02:49:24,430
This Yeti cup, American Yeti, Texas company, made

4346
02:49:24,430 --> 02:49:24,930
in China.

4347
02:49:25,050 --> 02:49:26,350
This bell, China.

4348
02:49:26,530 --> 02:49:28,850
This whistle, China.

4349
02:49:29,950 --> 02:49:32,290
My Light Phone 3, China.

4350
02:49:32,850 --> 02:49:34,230
It's all from China.

4351
02:49:34,970 --> 02:49:36,750
And I look at the stuff and I

4352
02:49:36,750 --> 02:49:38,230
go, do I really need all this stuff?

4353
02:49:39,330 --> 02:49:41,290
You know, do I really need it?

4354
02:49:41,850 --> 02:49:43,770
My guns are from, my guns are not

4355
02:49:43,770 --> 02:49:44,330
from China.

4356
02:49:44,490 --> 02:49:45,810
My guns are not from China.

4357
02:49:45,810 --> 02:49:46,790
Yet.

4358
02:49:48,030 --> 02:49:48,630
Yet.

4359
02:49:49,970 --> 02:49:52,410
We probably need to just have this story

4360
02:49:52,410 --> 02:49:55,190
out for a moment because it's not really

4361
02:49:55,190 --> 02:49:56,010
a big topic.

4362
02:49:56,490 --> 02:49:59,890
You know, there was a pretty bad attack

4363
02:49:59,890 --> 02:50:00,950
on tourists there.

4364
02:50:01,090 --> 02:50:03,130
You know, Pakistan and India heating up.

4365
02:50:03,350 --> 02:50:04,850
And here's the latest from Pakistan.

4366
02:50:05,210 --> 02:50:07,210
We start with the dispute between India and

4367
02:50:07,210 --> 02:50:10,530
Pakistan following a deadly attack in Indian-administered

4368
02:50:10,530 --> 02:50:13,470
Kashmir, which left 26 people dead last week.

4369
02:50:13,470 --> 02:50:16,190
The Indian Prime Minister Mahendra Modi has been

4370
02:50:16,190 --> 02:50:18,710
holding high-level talks with his cabinet in

4371
02:50:18,710 --> 02:50:21,050
response to the attack, which it blames on

4372
02:50:21,050 --> 02:50:24,450
Pakistan, a claim repeatedly denied by Islamabad.

4373
02:50:25,030 --> 02:50:28,430
Pakistan's information minister says his country has credible

4374
02:50:28,430 --> 02:50:31,450
intelligence that India is planning to attack.

4375
02:50:31,870 --> 02:50:38,110
Pakistan openheartedly offered a credible, transparent and independent

4376
02:50:38,110 --> 02:50:42,270
investigation by a neutral commission of experts to

4377
02:50:42,270 --> 02:50:43,350
ascertain the truth.

4378
02:50:43,350 --> 02:50:47,090
Unfortunately, rather than pursuing the path of reason,

4379
02:50:47,550 --> 02:50:50,350
India has apparently decided to tread the dangerous

4380
02:50:50,350 --> 02:50:55,490
path of irrationality and confrontation, which will have

4381
02:50:55,490 --> 02:50:59,730
catastrophic consequences for the complete region and beyond.

4382
02:51:00,150 --> 02:51:03,130
World leaders have expressed deep concern and urged

4383
02:51:03,130 --> 02:51:05,870
restraint by the uneasy neighbours who have fought

4384
02:51:05,870 --> 02:51:08,690
several wars and who both have nuclear weapons.

4385
02:51:09,170 --> 02:51:12,050
Man, Led Zeppelin did songs about Kashmir.

4386
02:51:12,050 --> 02:51:15,250
Can these guys not just settle it finally?

4387
02:51:15,470 --> 02:51:16,870
What is so special?

4388
02:51:17,870 --> 02:51:18,750
Seems unlikely.

4389
02:51:19,210 --> 02:51:21,350
What is so special about the Kashmir region?

4390
02:51:21,650 --> 02:51:22,310
What is it?

4391
02:51:22,410 --> 02:51:22,950
What do they care?

4392
02:51:22,950 --> 02:51:25,290
Everybody thinks it's a fabulous place and both

4393
02:51:25,290 --> 02:51:26,610
sides think it's theirs.

4394
02:51:27,170 --> 02:51:27,730
They own it.

4395
02:51:27,830 --> 02:51:29,270
Well, what's so fabulous about it?

4396
02:51:29,390 --> 02:51:30,170
I don't know.

4397
02:51:30,210 --> 02:51:30,990
I've never been there.

4398
02:51:31,050 --> 02:51:31,810
Does it have a beach?

4399
02:51:32,090 --> 02:51:32,350
No?

4400
02:51:33,930 --> 02:51:35,130
It used to be fabulous.

4401
02:51:35,290 --> 02:51:37,190
I don't know why they can't get it

4402
02:51:37,190 --> 02:51:37,290
over.

4403
02:51:37,290 --> 02:51:40,390
Well, we have Pakistanis and Indians in our

4404
02:51:40,390 --> 02:51:41,290
own nation.

4405
02:51:41,290 --> 02:51:43,650
The explanation will be biased in both.

4406
02:51:43,810 --> 02:51:45,470
We won't find out anything.

4407
02:51:45,730 --> 02:51:47,430
Well, I'll take bias over nothing.

4408
02:51:48,070 --> 02:51:49,090
Over this report.

4409
02:51:53,070 --> 02:51:55,970
They're going to strike us.

4410
02:51:57,970 --> 02:51:58,190
Why?

4411
02:52:00,670 --> 02:52:01,910
We don't know why.

4412
02:52:02,210 --> 02:52:02,670
You're right.

4413
02:52:03,350 --> 02:52:04,290
They've been bitching.

4414
02:52:04,410 --> 02:52:05,490
This has been going on forever.

4415
02:52:05,610 --> 02:52:06,210
For decades.

4416
02:52:06,270 --> 02:52:08,010
I have a real news clip if you

4417
02:52:08,010 --> 02:52:10,070
want to play real news jingle.

4418
02:52:10,070 --> 02:52:11,390
Goodness gracious.

4419
02:52:11,390 --> 02:52:12,070
I know.

4420
02:52:12,370 --> 02:52:13,390
We haven't done this for a year.

4421
02:52:13,570 --> 02:52:14,010
A year.

4422
02:52:14,190 --> 02:52:14,710
Where is it?

4423
02:52:14,710 --> 02:52:14,910
Oh, wait.

4424
02:52:14,970 --> 02:52:15,910
It's under...

4425
02:52:15,910 --> 02:52:17,790
I have the real news clip somewhere.

4426
02:52:21,510 --> 02:52:23,830
And now, back to real news.

4427
02:52:24,030 --> 02:52:24,330
Okay.

4428
02:52:24,650 --> 02:52:25,970
Time for real news.

4429
02:52:26,150 --> 02:52:26,730
What do you have?

4430
02:52:27,070 --> 02:52:28,930
So, the sports ball people are talking...

4431
02:52:28,930 --> 02:52:31,870
Everyone's talking and ridiculing this guy including Megan.

4432
02:52:32,470 --> 02:52:32,890
Kelly?

4433
02:52:33,830 --> 02:52:34,170
Yes.

4434
02:52:34,450 --> 02:52:34,730
Yeah.

4435
02:52:35,110 --> 02:52:37,770
And this is Bill Belichick who's like...

4436
02:52:37,770 --> 02:52:38,230
I don't know.

4437
02:52:38,290 --> 02:52:40,150
He's 60, 70.

4438
02:52:40,370 --> 02:52:41,830
He's like 72, I think.

4439
02:52:41,830 --> 02:52:43,710
And he's got a 24-year-old girlfriend.

4440
02:52:44,770 --> 02:52:45,810
Go right on.

4441
02:52:47,270 --> 02:52:48,150
Go Bill.

4442
02:52:48,550 --> 02:52:49,850
What a lot of people say.

4443
02:52:50,430 --> 02:52:56,570
And so, he was interviewed by CBS morning

4444
02:52:56,570 --> 02:53:00,110
and then they had to clip some of

4445
02:53:00,110 --> 02:53:02,650
her in there because she was being annoying

4446
02:53:02,650 --> 02:53:03,650
at the interview.

4447
02:53:03,830 --> 02:53:04,950
She was butting in a lot.

4448
02:53:05,030 --> 02:53:06,510
And then he came back with a comment

4449
02:53:06,510 --> 02:53:07,010
about it.

4450
02:53:07,090 --> 02:53:09,530
And then CBS came back with a comment.

4451
02:53:09,690 --> 02:53:10,450
And it went back and forth.

4452
02:53:10,450 --> 02:53:12,930
But here's the Megan Kelly, this Belichick.

4453
02:53:13,430 --> 02:53:15,390
This is the Megan Kelly report on it.

4454
02:53:15,470 --> 02:53:18,030
And she's, of course, you know...

4455
02:53:18,030 --> 02:53:18,810
She's Megan.

4456
02:53:18,890 --> 02:53:19,450
She's horrible.

4457
02:53:19,710 --> 02:53:19,890
She's Megan.

4458
02:53:19,890 --> 02:53:20,350
She's Megan.

4459
02:53:20,570 --> 02:53:20,790
Yes.

4460
02:53:20,910 --> 02:53:22,950
So, this guy, Bill Belichick, has been in

4461
02:53:22,950 --> 02:53:24,270
the news lately because his girlfriend, I think,

4462
02:53:24,350 --> 02:53:26,810
is 50 years, 47 to 50 years...

4463
02:53:26,810 --> 02:53:27,290
Oh, no!

4464
02:53:27,490 --> 02:53:29,450
...difference between Belichick and...

4465
02:53:29,450 --> 02:53:30,570
Is she mad about that?

4466
02:53:30,610 --> 02:53:31,330
Is that the premise?

4467
02:53:31,410 --> 02:53:33,330
She's mad about the age difference with the

4468
02:53:33,330 --> 02:53:33,450
chick?

4469
02:53:33,470 --> 02:53:35,350
No, she doesn't express this, but you know

4470
02:53:35,350 --> 02:53:35,970
she is.

4471
02:53:35,970 --> 02:53:36,290
Okay.

4472
02:53:37,290 --> 02:53:38,210
...young gal pal.

4473
02:53:38,210 --> 02:53:39,970
So, she shows up at these black tie

4474
02:53:39,970 --> 02:53:42,130
events with him wearing nothing.

4475
02:53:42,410 --> 02:53:44,090
She's basically wearing, like, a bikini.

4476
02:53:44,450 --> 02:53:46,810
And he's wearing a normal man's clothing.

4477
02:53:47,270 --> 02:53:47,570
Shocking!

4478
02:53:47,750 --> 02:53:49,310
And it looks weird.

4479
02:53:50,070 --> 02:53:51,350
Like, okay, whatever.

4480
02:53:51,870 --> 02:53:53,370
I guess I'm not...

4481
02:53:53,370 --> 02:53:54,070
Who am I to judge?

4482
02:53:54,110 --> 02:53:54,870
But I'm judging.

4483
02:53:55,130 --> 02:53:55,870
I won't lie.

4484
02:53:55,910 --> 02:53:56,250
It's weird.

4485
02:53:57,130 --> 02:53:59,330
And I'm pretty sure she is with him

4486
02:53:59,330 --> 02:54:01,230
because he's very famous and probably has a

4487
02:54:01,230 --> 02:54:02,470
lot of money and gets her access to

4488
02:54:02,470 --> 02:54:02,830
cool things.

4489
02:54:02,870 --> 02:54:03,390
That's my guess.

4490
02:54:03,670 --> 02:54:04,070
What?

4491
02:54:04,650 --> 02:54:05,050
Gambling?

4492
02:54:05,410 --> 02:54:05,890
I'm just going to say it.

4493
02:54:05,890 --> 02:54:09,750
But anyway, he gives this interview and now

4494
02:54:09,750 --> 02:54:11,690
it's starting to look much more like a

4495
02:54:11,690 --> 02:54:12,850
Jill Biden situation.

4496
02:54:13,210 --> 02:54:14,410
That's all I could think of, you guys.

4497
02:54:14,890 --> 02:54:17,310
She's like Dr. Jill on the sidelines calling

4498
02:54:17,310 --> 02:54:20,530
all the shots and trying to decide what

4499
02:54:20,530 --> 02:54:21,850
he can answer and what he can't in

4500
02:54:21,850 --> 02:54:22,410
this interview.

4501
02:54:23,150 --> 02:54:24,770
And what we learned today, I'll show you

4502
02:54:24,770 --> 02:54:25,910
the clip, but what we learned today was

4503
02:54:25,910 --> 02:54:29,650
that it was far worse than CBS This

4504
02:54:29,650 --> 02:54:31,110
Morning, which is like a nice program.

4505
02:54:31,230 --> 02:54:32,530
They try to do nice stories.

4506
02:54:33,210 --> 02:54:34,050
It would even air.

4507
02:54:34,050 --> 02:54:37,230
The reason, reportedly, that they chose to air

4508
02:54:37,230 --> 02:54:39,910
this one interruption of hers is because it

4509
02:54:39,910 --> 02:54:41,210
was far worse than this.

4510
02:54:41,630 --> 02:54:43,610
She was trying to dominate behind the scenes

4511
02:54:43,610 --> 02:54:46,850
and they felt it was okay to include

4512
02:54:46,850 --> 02:54:49,030
one of her interruptions just to give the

4513
02:54:49,030 --> 02:54:52,250
audience, to be transparent, that they had this

4514
02:54:52,250 --> 02:54:54,490
monster on screen left who was completely trying

4515
02:54:54,490 --> 02:54:55,310
to control him.

4516
02:54:55,970 --> 02:54:57,290
And it was to the point where they

4517
02:54:57,290 --> 02:54:59,450
didn't feel like it would have journalistic integrity

4518
02:54:59,450 --> 02:55:01,610
if they didn't show at least some of

4519
02:55:01,610 --> 02:55:01,790
it.

4520
02:55:01,930 --> 02:55:02,730
Watch this.

4521
02:55:02,730 --> 02:55:06,110
The other change for Belichick is 24-year

4522
02:55:06,110 --> 02:55:10,510
-old Jordan Hudson, his creative muse, as he

4523
02:55:10,510 --> 02:55:11,310
writes in his book.

4524
02:55:13,010 --> 02:55:16,230
Jordan was a constant presence during our interview.

4525
02:55:16,610 --> 02:55:19,010
You have Jordan right over there.

4526
02:55:19,810 --> 02:55:21,430
Everybody in the world seems to be following

4527
02:55:21,430 --> 02:55:22,150
this relationship.

4528
02:55:22,610 --> 02:55:24,350
They've got an opinion about your private life.

4529
02:55:24,410 --> 02:55:25,690
It's got nothing to do with them, but

4530
02:55:25,690 --> 02:55:26,730
they're invested in it.

4531
02:55:27,610 --> 02:55:28,670
How do you deal with that?

4532
02:55:29,710 --> 02:55:31,390
I've never been too worried about what everybody

4533
02:55:31,390 --> 02:55:32,170
else thinks.

4534
02:55:32,170 --> 02:55:33,390
I just try to do what I feel

4535
02:55:33,390 --> 02:55:35,230
like is best for me and what's right.

4536
02:55:35,490 --> 02:55:36,350
How did you guys meet?

4537
02:55:37,230 --> 02:55:38,390
I'm not talking about this.

4538
02:55:39,050 --> 02:55:39,170
No?

4539
02:55:40,170 --> 02:55:42,230
It's a topic neither one of them is

4540
02:55:42,230 --> 02:55:43,610
comfortable commenting on.

4541
02:55:43,730 --> 02:55:43,970
What?

4542
02:55:44,690 --> 02:55:46,810
And it went on.

4543
02:55:47,030 --> 02:55:49,270
The portion I talked to you about, it

4544
02:55:49,270 --> 02:55:50,890
went on and on to where it was

4545
02:55:50,890 --> 02:55:52,430
very cringy.

4546
02:55:52,610 --> 02:55:53,730
You were like, oh, God.

4547
02:55:54,710 --> 02:55:57,190
Oh, Megan, how deep you have sunk.

4548
02:55:58,330 --> 02:55:58,770
Megan.

4549
02:55:59,110 --> 02:56:01,670
Why is she doing this?

4550
02:56:01,670 --> 02:56:03,750
She's the woman who was like the big

4551
02:56:03,750 --> 02:56:07,870
political journalist, lawyer, and all she can do

4552
02:56:07,870 --> 02:56:09,110
is show business stuff.

4553
02:56:09,190 --> 02:56:09,950
I'm sure it's great.

4554
02:56:10,070 --> 02:56:11,170
Well, we know the answer.

4555
02:56:11,250 --> 02:56:12,910
It's great for downloads.

4556
02:56:13,170 --> 02:56:14,190
It's great for views.

4557
02:56:14,510 --> 02:56:15,010
It's numbers.

4558
02:56:15,530 --> 02:56:17,330
This is why value for value is a

4559
02:56:17,330 --> 02:56:18,510
much better way to do it.

4560
02:56:18,670 --> 02:56:20,490
You don't need numbers to survive.

4561
02:56:22,130 --> 02:56:24,050
You don't need to deal with these people

4562
02:56:24,050 --> 02:56:29,230
who send us AI analysis of the show

4563
02:56:29,230 --> 02:56:31,130
being anti-advertiser.

4564
02:56:44,850 --> 02:56:47,110
And to prove that, we are going to

4565
02:56:47,110 --> 02:56:49,510
thank our donors, $50 and above.

4566
02:56:50,650 --> 02:56:52,310
Yeah, we did pretty well today.

4567
02:56:52,490 --> 02:56:53,350
So that was nice.

4568
02:56:53,430 --> 02:56:53,950
That was nice.

4569
02:56:54,050 --> 02:56:54,470
Very nice.

4570
02:56:54,670 --> 02:56:56,750
Hopefully we got the big show coming up

4571
02:56:56,750 --> 02:56:57,230
on Sunday.

4572
02:56:57,230 --> 02:56:59,650
The Cinco de Mayo special.

4573
02:56:59,910 --> 02:57:00,810
Woo, everybody.

4574
02:57:01,170 --> 02:57:02,130
Yeah, that's right.

4575
02:57:02,250 --> 02:57:02,630
It is the big Cinco de Mayo.

4576
02:57:02,630 --> 02:57:04,090
Marjorie Santelli starts us off.

4577
02:57:04,170 --> 02:57:06,590
She's in Kirtland, Ohio.

4578
02:57:06,830 --> 02:57:07,770
One, two, three, four, five.

4579
02:57:09,350 --> 02:57:11,670
The Ash in Texas in Flower Mound.

4580
02:57:12,210 --> 02:57:14,190
One, two, one, two, one.

4581
02:57:14,710 --> 02:57:16,650
And that's an El DeBarge donation.

4582
02:57:19,510 --> 02:57:20,550
Thank you.

4583
02:57:20,850 --> 02:57:22,450
One person got my joke.

4584
02:57:22,590 --> 02:57:22,950
Thank you.

4585
02:57:23,090 --> 02:57:23,510
It's appreciated.

4586
02:57:23,530 --> 02:57:24,410
Yes, yeah.

4587
02:57:24,770 --> 02:57:25,030
It's appreciated.

4588
02:57:25,530 --> 02:57:27,210
Okay, well, she's on the ball.

4589
02:57:28,950 --> 02:57:36,370
Connie Wolles-Lusink and Heinen Noord, North Heinen,

4590
02:57:38,310 --> 02:57:39,770
Netherlands, 120, 120.

4591
02:57:40,290 --> 02:57:41,470
And she got a long note there.

4592
02:57:41,490 --> 02:57:42,630
She's a big fan of yours.

4593
02:57:43,150 --> 02:57:44,230
Yes, I can see.

4594
02:57:46,350 --> 02:57:47,550
She's just a note for you.

4595
02:57:47,690 --> 02:57:48,550
You can read it to yourself.

4596
02:57:48,690 --> 02:57:50,010
She says eggs are expensive.

4597
02:57:50,950 --> 02:57:51,610
Over there.

4598
02:57:52,810 --> 02:57:53,650
Oh, this is a two.

4599
02:57:53,650 --> 02:57:56,810
Oh, she says our eggs are 36 euro

4600
02:57:56,810 --> 02:57:57,730
cents per egg.

4601
02:57:57,870 --> 02:58:00,030
Therefore, I give you two dozen eggs donation.

4602
02:58:00,190 --> 02:58:01,690
That's a 12-12.

4603
02:58:01,730 --> 02:58:02,750
One, two, one, two.

4604
02:58:03,430 --> 02:58:03,910
I like it.

4605
02:58:04,130 --> 02:58:05,210
The eggs donation.

4606
02:58:05,390 --> 02:58:06,170
Eggs donation.

4607
02:58:06,330 --> 02:58:06,790
Why not?

4608
02:58:07,470 --> 02:58:08,230
Two dozen eggs.

4609
02:58:08,450 --> 02:58:10,110
So Jay has eggs.

4610
02:58:10,830 --> 02:58:11,170
Uh-huh.

4611
02:58:11,310 --> 02:58:12,450
And so she brought me some because I

4612
02:58:12,450 --> 02:58:15,550
use a raw egg in my morning no

4613
02:58:15,550 --> 02:58:16,330
agenda drink.

4614
02:58:16,390 --> 02:58:17,710
Yes, we have discussed this.

4615
02:58:17,790 --> 02:58:19,270
It was a tip, tipoftheday.net.

4616
02:58:19,270 --> 02:58:21,670
And she's got a chicken there.

4617
02:58:21,670 --> 02:58:23,550
And it's almost a tip of the day.

4618
02:58:23,710 --> 02:58:25,890
It's a buff Orpington, which is a killer

4619
02:58:25,890 --> 02:58:26,850
beautiful chicken.

4620
02:58:26,950 --> 02:58:28,710
We used to have them up north.

4621
02:58:29,230 --> 02:58:30,050
The buff.

4622
02:58:30,230 --> 02:58:31,690
And it used to be called Buffy.

4623
02:58:31,810 --> 02:58:33,190
It's a beautiful red chicken.

4624
02:58:34,710 --> 02:58:35,590
And huge.

4625
02:58:35,910 --> 02:58:37,890
And it produces the chicken.

4626
02:58:38,130 --> 02:58:39,290
I've never seen home chickens.

4627
02:58:39,470 --> 02:58:40,390
Usually don't do this.

4628
02:58:40,870 --> 02:58:42,610
Produces jumbo eggs.

4629
02:58:43,130 --> 02:58:43,570
Jumbo.

4630
02:58:43,970 --> 02:58:44,970
How big are they?

4631
02:58:45,230 --> 02:58:45,350
They're huge.

4632
02:58:45,430 --> 02:58:46,350
They're huge.

4633
02:58:46,470 --> 02:58:47,550
It's a big giant egg.

4634
02:58:47,630 --> 02:58:49,950
She says that the chicken makes a squawk

4635
02:58:49,950 --> 02:58:51,150
every time she lays one.

4636
02:58:55,850 --> 02:58:56,890
No doubt.

4637
02:58:57,390 --> 02:58:58,310
Poor, poor chicken.

4638
02:58:59,090 --> 02:58:59,830
Onward, sir.

4639
02:58:59,930 --> 02:59:00,790
By his grace.

4640
02:59:01,050 --> 02:59:02,630
Get buff Orpingtons.

4641
02:59:03,370 --> 02:59:05,930
Sir, by his grace, in Jacksonville, Florida, 1

4642
02:59:05,930 --> 02:59:06,990
-11-22.

4643
02:59:08,510 --> 02:59:11,490
And he's also mentioned Southeastern Turf Grass Supply.

4644
02:59:11,770 --> 02:59:14,770
For all your grass agronomic needs.

4645
02:59:17,770 --> 02:59:19,890
By the way, I know, sir, by his

4646
02:59:19,890 --> 02:59:19,990
grace.

4647
02:59:19,990 --> 02:59:20,170
By his grace.

4648
02:59:20,250 --> 02:59:21,890
And he's so worried about the tariffs.

4649
02:59:21,990 --> 02:59:24,110
He keeps sending me articles like, he's going

4650
02:59:24,110 --> 02:59:24,710
to screw it up.

4651
02:59:24,730 --> 02:59:25,510
He's going to screw it up.

4652
02:59:25,550 --> 02:59:26,150
He's going to screw up.

4653
02:59:26,210 --> 02:59:26,610
He's going to...

4654
02:59:27,050 --> 02:59:28,170
I have to close my business.

4655
02:59:28,330 --> 02:59:28,810
He's going to screw up.

4656
02:59:29,290 --> 02:59:29,910
Trump's no good.

4657
02:59:30,170 --> 02:59:32,030
Wait, is he getting his turf from China?

4658
02:59:32,190 --> 02:59:36,730
No, I think his pesticides, herbicides, all that

4659
02:59:36,730 --> 02:59:36,950
stuff.

4660
02:59:37,050 --> 02:59:38,550
Yeah, he definitely gets stuff from China.

4661
02:59:44,110 --> 02:59:44,750
Sir, KC9YJM7310535.

4662
02:59:45,590 --> 02:59:47,490
He wants a jobs karma at the end,

4663
02:59:47,550 --> 02:59:48,130
if you don't mind.

4664
02:59:51,590 --> 02:59:55,770

03:00:15,230 --> 03:00:16,150
Mellabation?

4670
03:00:16,610 --> 03:00:17,130
Mettabation.

4671
03:00:17,130 --> 03:00:20,030
No, Mellabation.

4672
03:00:20,570 --> 03:00:21,350
Mellabation, okay.

4673
03:00:21,730 --> 03:00:22,970

03:00:23,410 --> 03:00:24,450

DeConco, North Carolina, is the Archduke of Luna,

4676
03:00:27,050 --> 03:00:28,190
lover of America and boobs.

4677
03:00:28,630 --> 03:00:29,850
8008, the boob donation.

4678
03:00:30,290 --> 03:00:34,370
Rick LaBanca in Hope, Rhode Island, 73, 73.

4679
03:00:34,690 --> 03:00:37,210
That's a ham radio donation.

4680
03:00:37,990 --> 03:00:39,630
And heaven forbid, we got another one.

4681
03:00:39,710 --> 03:00:43,090
Noble Anderson in Montgomery, Alabama, 73, 73, with

4682
03:00:43,090 --> 03:00:44,230
a happy birthday to me.

4683
03:00:44,590 --> 03:00:45,650
This is a while ago.

4684
03:00:45,650 --> 03:00:48,610
I guess it's my 73rd birthday donation.

4685
03:00:48,810 --> 03:00:50,010
It's also 73s.

4686
03:00:50,150 --> 03:00:50,810

4693
03:01:09,950 --> 03:01:11,070
You need a different font.

4694
03:01:11,290 --> 03:01:12,110
Sir Slickwater.

4695
03:01:14,110 --> 03:01:15,850
There's got to be a default font.

4696
03:01:16,170 --> 03:01:16,530
Oh, please.

4697
03:01:16,790 --> 03:01:18,350
You've threatened to do this for years.

4698
03:01:18,350 --> 03:01:19,230
I don't do any.

4699
03:01:19,350 --> 03:01:20,790
Let's face it, I'm a big talker, no

4700
03:01:20,790 --> 03:01:21,210
action.

4701
03:01:22,230 --> 03:01:26,410

Jacob Alley in Wichita, Kansas, 63, 31.

4710
03:01:49,810 --> 03:01:50,350
Hold on.

4711
03:01:50,670 --> 03:01:52,810
Jacob says he's been on a subscription plan

4712
03:01:52,810 --> 03:01:54,610
but never got a formal de-douching, so

4713
03:01:54,610 --> 03:01:55,390
we'll do that now.

4714
03:01:56,430 --> 03:01:58,070
You've been de-douched.

4715
03:01:58,210 --> 03:01:58,550

58, 56, which is 55, 55 plus the

4719
03:02:10,050 --> 03:02:10,310
fee.

4720
03:02:10,310 --> 03:02:11,890
By the way, when you send a check

4721
03:02:11,890 --> 03:02:13,250
in, the fee is 15 cents.

4722
03:02:13,770 --> 03:02:14,010
That's right.

4723
03:02:14,270 --> 03:02:15,190

4725
03:02:22,870 --> 03:02:24,850
Sad puppy donation, that's what that is.

4726
03:02:25,070 --> 03:02:25,390
Okay.

4727
03:02:26,210 --> 03:02:27,530
What do we have here?

4728
03:02:27,690 --> 03:02:29,030

03:03:01,750 --> 03:03:02,770
He likes the newsletter.

4738
03:03:02,850 --> 03:03:03,530
He likes Tip of the Day.

4739
03:03:03,610 --> 03:03:05,110
He likes the jokes, but he says less

4740
03:03:05,110 --> 03:03:05,770
bickering.

4741
03:03:05,770 --> 03:03:07,650
It's only 65% funny.

4742
03:03:07,850 --> 03:03:10,450
No, that's a passing grade on the bickering,

4743
03:03:10,570 --> 03:03:12,270
and he sent you a copy of Dvorak's

4744
03:03:12,270 --> 03:03:15,550
Guide to PC Telecommunications, and he wants you

4745
03:03:15,550 --> 03:03:16,890
to sign it and return it.

4746
03:03:17,370 --> 03:03:19,290
Yes, I already communicated with him.

4747
03:03:19,330 --> 03:03:20,010
I will do that.

4748
03:03:20,630 --> 03:03:22,130
It's an instant bestseller.

4749
03:03:22,830 --> 03:03:23,250
Instant.

It's a donation she can afford.

03:03:49,670 --> 03:03:51,590
Yeah, we put that in the newsletter.

4758
03:03:51,970 --> 03:03:55,010
That was the 55, 1, and she put

4759
03:03:55,010 --> 03:03:55,430

4760
03:03:55,590 --> 03:03:56,330
That was the Mayday.

4761
03:03:56,390 --> 03:03:57,230
Don't you remember?

4762
03:03:57,390 --> 03:03:58,430
You set this up.

I don't know.

4777
03:04:27,110 --> 03:04:27,930
Yeah, it's a tea company.

4778
03:04:28,030 --> 03:04:28,670

of anonymity, so we see you, $49.99,

4816
03:06:04,050 --> 03:06:04,830
so we appreciate it.

4817
03:06:04,870 --> 03:06:06,510
And of course, all of those sustaining donors,

4818
03:06:07,010 --> 03:06:09,130
if you go to noagendadonations.com, you can

4819
03:06:09,130 --> 03:06:10,390
make a donation of any amount.

4820
03:06:10,490 --> 03:06:12,350
We love the numerology, as you can tell.

4821
03:06:12,630 --> 03:06:14,450
Lots of different numbers, and thank you for

4822
03:06:14,450 --> 03:06:14,970
the explanation.

4823
03:06:15,610 --> 03:06:17,790
But the sustaining donations really do help any

4824
03:06:17,790 --> 03:06:20,270
amount, any frequency, and we actually have a

4825
03:06:20,270 --> 03:06:21,930
baron coming up who did just that.

4826
03:06:22,210 --> 03:06:25,090
Thank you, as always, and once again, noagendadonations

4827
03:06:25,090 --> 03:06:25,870
.com.

4828
03:06:30,770 --> 03:06:33,750
Very short list, along with Willie Nelson, of

4829
03:06:33,750 --> 03:06:36,710
course, who celebrated yesterday, and Wirt Fuller, April

4830
03:06:36,710 --> 03:06:37,370
29th.

4831
03:06:37,390 --> 03:06:39,750
Jessica says happy birthday to John Dale.

4832
03:06:39,790 --> 03:06:41,730
He turns 50 on May 2nd.

4833
03:06:41,790 --> 03:06:43,790
And finally on the list, happy birthday to

4834
03:06:43,790 --> 03:06:44,590
Rick LaBanca.

4835
03:06:44,790 --> 03:06:46,690
Happy birthday from everybody here at the best

4836
03:06:46,690 --> 03:06:48,290
podcast in the universe.

4837
03:06:49,890 --> 03:06:52,590
And now we have 1, 2, 3, 4,

4838
03:06:52,750 --> 03:06:55,690
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 people who

4839
03:06:55,690 --> 03:06:58,410
took advantage of the final, final moment of

4840
03:06:58,410 --> 03:06:59,350
the Commodore ship.

4841
03:06:59,610 --> 03:07:01,610
This means that when you go to noagendarings

4842
03:07:01,610 --> 03:07:03,490
.com and you give us the actual name

4843
03:07:03,490 --> 03:07:05,130
you would like on your certificate of being

4844
03:07:05,130 --> 03:07:06,730
a Commodore, we will take care of that

4845
03:07:06,730 --> 03:07:07,170
for you.

4846
03:07:07,550 --> 03:07:10,610
We have Commodore Anonymous Black Sheep, Commodore Scott

4847
03:07:10,610 --> 03:07:14,070
Horton, Commodore of the Human Resource Producers, Commodore

4848
03:07:14,070 --> 03:07:17,670
Mark of Crow Wing County, Commodore Sir Milkman

4849
03:07:17,670 --> 03:07:21,810
of Ebbington, Commodore Zach Zedock-Brown III, Commodore

4850
03:07:21,810 --> 03:07:25,190
S.T.G., Commodore Brock Reinholdt, and Commodore

03:07:25,190 --> 03:07:26,230
John Tucker.

4852
03:07:26,630 --> 03:07:27,990
Commodores arriving.

4853
03:07:29,410 --> 03:07:29,710
Whoo!

4854
03:07:30,010 --> 03:07:30,790
Good list.

4855
03:07:30,990 --> 03:07:31,810
Very good list.

4856
03:07:32,290 --> 03:07:34,910
Here's that layaway baron who will be knighted

4857
03:07:34,910 --> 03:07:36,570
today, Sir Tom.

4858
03:07:37,270 --> 03:07:40,530
He is, well, let me read his note.

4859
03:07:40,590 --> 03:07:41,850
I was originally hit in the mouth by

4860
03:07:41,850 --> 03:07:44,830
Fabian of the Linux Outlaws, and after 11

4861
03:07:44,830 --> 03:07:46,950
years I have finally achieved the title of

4862
03:07:46,950 --> 03:07:50,710
Baron through monthly donations of $33.33 and

4863
03:07:50,710 --> 03:07:52,970
a care package of bratwurst and other meats

4864
03:07:52,970 --> 03:07:54,370
back in 2021.

4865
03:07:54,790 --> 03:07:56,310
I don't remember the...

4866
03:07:56,310 --> 03:07:58,690
I think John hoarded all the bratwurst and

4867
03:07:58,690 --> 03:07:59,050
meats.

4868
03:07:59,470 --> 03:08:00,650
Yes, everyone can do it.

4869
03:08:00,650 --> 03:08:02,270
And this is from Nemechek.

4870
03:08:03,750 --> 03:08:04,570
I don't know.

4871
03:08:05,470 --> 03:08:06,450
I don't remember.

4872
03:08:07,050 --> 03:08:08,730
But he goes on to say, Yes, everyone

4873
03:08:08,730 --> 03:08:09,630
can do it, you too.

4874
03:08:09,730 --> 03:08:10,750
You can do it too.

4875
03:08:10,750 --> 03:08:13,050
The Peerage Committee has approved carving out the

4876
03:08:13,050 --> 03:08:16,790
area code of 920 with Sir 10T, Duke

4877
03:08:16,790 --> 03:08:19,210
of Federal Reserve District 7's protectorate.

4878
03:08:19,530 --> 03:08:21,470
As such, I request a title change to

4879
03:08:21,470 --> 03:08:23,990
Baron Tom, Warden of the Frozen Tundra.

4880
03:08:24,410 --> 03:08:25,410
Go, Pat, go.

4881
03:08:25,590 --> 03:08:26,690
Keep up the great work, gents.

4882
03:08:26,830 --> 03:08:27,750
11 more years.

4883
03:08:28,150 --> 03:08:28,630
Tom G.

4884
03:08:28,770 --> 03:08:30,230
from the bratwurst capital.

4885
03:08:30,750 --> 03:08:33,250
And we're going to knight him right now.

4886
03:08:33,370 --> 03:08:34,590
So get your blade out.

4887
03:08:34,710 --> 03:08:36,330
We definitely need to have a nice blade

4888
03:08:36,330 --> 03:08:37,830
for him because he's becoming a...

4889
03:08:37,890 --> 03:08:38,670
Ooh, that is a good one.

4890
03:08:39,630 --> 03:08:40,890
So, all right, then.

4891
03:08:42,230 --> 03:08:43,890
Tom G., step on up.

4892
03:08:44,550 --> 03:08:47,010
Very proud to pronounce that he not only

4893
03:08:47,010 --> 03:08:48,570
is a knight of the Noah General Round

4894
03:08:48,570 --> 03:08:52,070
Table, but as Sir Tom, Baron Tom, Warden

4895
03:08:52,070 --> 03:08:53,650
of the Frozen Tundra.

4896
03:08:53,890 --> 03:08:55,790
For you, my friend, we have hookers and

4897
03:08:55,790 --> 03:08:58,290
blow, red boys and chardonnay, prostitutes and some

4898
03:08:58,290 --> 03:08:58,850
nice wine.

4899
03:08:59,190 --> 03:09:01,610
We have harlots and haldol, pepperoni rolls and

4900
03:09:01,610 --> 03:09:03,950
pale ales, redheads and ryes, beers and blunts,

4901
03:09:04,070 --> 03:09:07,410
cowgirls and coffin varnish, ruminants, women and rosé,

4902
03:09:07,410 --> 03:09:09,910
geishas and sake, vodka, vanilla, bong hits and

4903
03:09:09,910 --> 03:09:12,030
bourbon, sparkling cider and escorts, ginger ale and

4904
03:09:12,030 --> 03:09:14,430
gerbils, breast milk and pablum, and, of course,

4905
03:09:14,530 --> 03:09:17,230
as always at the Round Table, mutton and

4906
03:09:17,230 --> 03:09:18,250
mead.

4907
03:09:18,290 --> 03:09:19,490
And congratulations.

4908
03:09:20,570 --> 03:09:22,770
Tom, head over to NoahGenderRings.com.

4909
03:09:22,830 --> 03:09:24,070
Let us know where you want us to

4910
03:09:24,070 --> 03:09:24,910
send your ring.

4911
03:09:25,030 --> 03:09:26,830
There's a ring sizing guide on the website,

4912
03:09:26,950 --> 03:09:28,310
so make sure you have the right size.

4913
03:09:28,630 --> 03:09:30,390
It comes with two sticks of dynamite.

4914
03:09:30,470 --> 03:09:31,590
Oh, no, two sticks of wax.

4915
03:09:31,830 --> 03:09:34,350
With that, you can seal your important correspondence,

4916
03:09:34,490 --> 03:09:36,370
and, as always, with a certificate of authenticity.

4917
03:09:36,370 --> 03:09:38,070
And thank you for becoming not just a

4918
03:09:38,070 --> 03:09:40,310
knight, but a layaway knight and baron of

4919
03:09:40,310 --> 03:09:41,610
the Noah Gender Round Table.

4920
03:09:46,030 --> 03:09:52,730
Well, the meetups are still huge, as you

4921
03:09:52,730 --> 03:09:53,330
can imagine.

4922
03:09:53,590 --> 03:09:56,170
They take place all over Gitmo Nation, around

4923
03:09:56,170 --> 03:09:57,030
the globe, really.

4924
03:09:57,170 --> 03:09:58,130
People love doing them.

4925
03:09:58,190 --> 03:09:59,210
They are produced and organized.

4926
03:09:59,330 --> 03:10:01,050
You can go to NoahGenderMeetups.com.

4927
03:10:01,430 --> 03:10:03,170
Find some near you.

4928
03:10:03,370 --> 03:10:04,070
There's a calendar.

4929
03:10:04,210 --> 03:10:04,750
There's a list.

4930
03:10:04,750 --> 03:10:06,450
And we love it when you send in

4931
03:10:06,450 --> 03:10:08,750
meetup reports, but it's getting a little bit

4932
03:10:08,750 --> 03:10:09,570
out of control.

4933
03:10:10,170 --> 03:10:12,250
So keep it short, please.

4934
03:10:12,630 --> 03:10:14,450
There's only one today, so I don't mind

4935
03:10:14,450 --> 03:10:14,930
playing it.

4936
03:10:14,990 --> 03:10:17,210
This is the meetup report from Chicago.

4937
03:10:17,470 --> 03:10:18,410
What's up, y'all?

4938
03:10:18,530 --> 03:10:21,110
This is Eli the Coffee Guy, hanging out

4939
03:10:21,110 --> 03:10:21,330
here.

4940
03:10:21,450 --> 03:10:23,590
Reggie's having a blast with everybody.

4941
03:10:24,150 --> 03:10:26,430
Peace out to Baron NBS.

4942
03:10:26,990 --> 03:10:28,650
Getting out of Chi-town.

4943
03:10:29,050 --> 03:10:29,970
I don't blame you, brother.

4944
03:10:30,370 --> 03:10:31,410
But it's still a great city.

4945
03:10:31,710 --> 03:10:32,190
Look!

4946
03:10:32,930 --> 03:10:34,890
Yo, it's Andrew here from the UK.

4947
03:10:35,510 --> 03:10:37,230
MI6 has come out here to represent.

4948
03:10:37,930 --> 03:10:40,650
And, yeah, no, it's a real fucking pleasure

4949
03:10:40,650 --> 03:10:41,250
to be out here.

4950
03:10:41,850 --> 03:10:44,090
And, yeah, NBS is looking kind of shocked

4951
03:10:44,090 --> 03:10:46,510
to get past the mic after that.

4952
03:10:46,770 --> 03:10:48,610
Not a serial killer, Kate here.

4953
03:10:49,230 --> 03:10:51,490
This is Sir...

4954
03:10:51,490 --> 03:10:55,570
Darth Pengura Laktaki, enjoying the in-the-morning

4955
03:10:55,570 --> 03:10:59,130
career, staring lovingly into Eli the Coffee Guy's

4956
03:10:59,130 --> 03:11:00,410
eyes because he's a handsome devil.

4957
03:11:00,410 --> 03:11:04,670
But all glory to Nick NBS for escaping

4958
03:11:04,670 --> 03:11:08,990
Chicago and going to more beautiful pastures than

4959
03:11:08,990 --> 03:11:10,290
a natural totalitarian.

4960
03:11:10,770 --> 03:11:11,690
All right, God bless.

4961
03:11:11,970 --> 03:11:12,630
In the morning!

4962
03:11:13,250 --> 03:11:14,830
Hey, this is Sir Tinley Knott.

4963
03:11:15,850 --> 03:11:16,250
Woke.

4964
03:11:17,270 --> 03:11:20,030
We are here at Reggie's in Chicago.

4965
03:11:20,350 --> 03:11:22,210
The only venue that has been good to

4966
03:11:22,210 --> 03:11:22,570
us.

4967
03:11:22,790 --> 03:11:25,250
They have been good to us since the

4968
03:11:25,250 --> 03:11:27,730
pandemic when we had our first meetup here.

4969
03:11:27,730 --> 03:11:29,730
And passing it on.

4970
03:11:29,910 --> 03:11:30,430
In the morning.

4971
03:11:30,870 --> 03:11:32,250
In the morning, John and Adam.

4972
03:11:32,390 --> 03:11:35,050
This is Baron NBS at the Escape From

4973
03:11:35,050 --> 03:11:36,530
Chicago meetup.

4974
03:11:37,190 --> 03:11:38,910
I'm wrapping my time up here in Chicago.

4975
03:11:39,150 --> 03:11:40,830
It's been a wonderful time here in Chicago.

4976
03:11:41,750 --> 03:11:45,250
Hanging out here with Eli, Alex, and some

4977
03:11:45,250 --> 03:11:47,470
random, very fine people.

4978
03:11:48,170 --> 03:11:48,950
In the morning.

4979
03:11:49,810 --> 03:11:51,090
Hey, this is Blake.

4980
03:11:51,610 --> 03:11:52,530
John, we're in trouble.

4981
03:11:52,650 --> 03:11:54,270
There's a lot of cheap guitars in Chicago.

4982
03:11:55,970 --> 03:11:59,850
All economic indicators aside, this is Sir Brian

4983
03:11:59,850 --> 03:12:00,410
with a Y.

4984
03:12:00,550 --> 03:12:03,370
We are fixing an imposed food crisis.

4985
03:12:03,390 --> 03:12:04,490
We are fixing an imposed.

4986
03:12:04,590 --> 03:12:06,110
Oh my God, Adam, I am so sorry.

4987
03:12:06,570 --> 03:12:09,390
But we're living up in Chicago again.

4988
03:12:09,530 --> 03:12:11,170
If you live nearby, come to the next

4989
03:12:11,170 --> 03:12:11,450
meetup.

4990
03:12:11,510 --> 03:12:12,310
We have a bunch of them.

4991
03:12:13,130 --> 03:12:13,650
In the morning.

4992
03:12:14,810 --> 03:12:16,010
What's up, NOAA Gender Nation?

This is KJ6QDT.

4994
03:12:18,790 --> 03:12:20,510
Just happy to be here for my first

4995
03:12:20,510 --> 03:12:20,870
meetup.

4996
03:12:20,910 --> 03:12:21,970
Hanging out with NBS.

4997
03:12:22,170 --> 03:12:23,090
Wish them best of luck.

4998
03:12:23,090 --> 03:12:26,070
And yeah, we'll see you all on NOAA

4999
03:12:26,070 --> 03:12:26,350
30.

5000
03:12:26,770 --> 03:12:28,930
Hi, this is Alex, ITM.

5001
03:12:29,910 --> 03:12:34,150
This is Dame Courtney here saying farewell to

5002
03:12:34,150 --> 03:12:34,590
NBS.

5003
03:12:35,270 --> 03:12:37,750
We will truly miss you in Chicago.

5004
03:12:38,210 --> 03:12:38,950
In the morning.

5005
03:12:40,970 --> 03:12:42,670
Alcohol, I'm telling you.

5006
03:12:43,270 --> 03:12:44,710
Keep it tight, people.

5007
03:12:45,050 --> 03:12:46,130
And where's the server?

5008
03:12:46,390 --> 03:12:47,110
I missed that.

5009
03:12:47,250 --> 03:12:48,350
I'm going to have to scold you a

5010
03:12:48,350 --> 03:12:48,650
little bit.

5011
03:12:50,210 --> 03:12:52,730

That's the spring edition.

03:13:18,230 --> 03:13:20,010
And that'll be in Scheveningen, the Netherlands.

5028
03:13:20,530 --> 03:13:21,010
Scheveningen.

5029
03:13:21,510 --> 03:13:23,550
You have to RSVP to find out where

5030
03:13:23,550 --> 03:13:23,850
it is.

5031
03:13:23,990 --> 03:13:24,950
Arno's organized that.

5032
03:13:25,030 --> 03:13:27,930
The Sonoma Wino Country Meetup on Saturday as

5033
03:13:27,930 --> 03:13:28,130

5038
03:13:38,070 --> 03:13:38,330
Woo!

5039
03:13:38,650 --> 03:13:40,930
That's at 4 o'clock in Brussels in

5040
03:13:40,930 --> 03:13:41,170
Isel.

5041
03:13:41,710 --> 03:13:42,950
I-X-E-L-L-E-S.

5042
03:13:43,330 --> 03:13:44,470
Make sure you go to that one.

5043
03:13:44,550 --> 03:13:46,510
And I want meetup reports from everybody one

5044
03:13:46,510 --> 03:13:47,290
minute or less.

5045
03:13:47,670 --> 03:13:49,050
If you want to find all the meetups

5046
03:13:49,050 --> 03:13:50,690
available, they are all around the world.

5047
03:13:50,850 --> 03:13:52,710
You can find them at noagendameetups.com.

5048
03:13:52,790 --> 03:13:54,730
If you can't find one near you, start

5049
03:13:54,730 --> 03:13:55,330
one yourself.

5050
03:13:55,470 --> 03:13:56,850
It's easy and always a party.

5051
03:13:57,070 --> 03:13:59,870
Sometimes you want to go hang out with

5052
03:13:59,870 --> 03:14:02,590
all the nights and days.

5053
03:14:03,170 --> 03:14:08,300
Hot meat, sugar, no hell flame.

5054
03:14:09,120 --> 03:14:12,060
You want to be where everybody feels the

5055
03:14:12,060 --> 03:14:13,080
same.

5056
03:14:14,520 --> 03:14:16,000
It's like a party.

5057
03:14:16,400 --> 03:14:17,080
It's like a party.

5058
03:14:17,580 --> 03:14:18,500
It's just like a party.

5059
03:14:18,800 --> 03:14:20,260
That was the time we select our end

5060
03:14:20,260 --> 03:14:22,740
-of-show ISO, a rare occasion today where

5061
03:14:22,740 --> 03:14:23,840
we both have one.

5062
03:14:24,040 --> 03:14:25,680
It's a one-on-one match-up.

5063
03:14:25,760 --> 03:14:27,000
I don't think I'm going to win.

5064
03:14:28,000 --> 03:14:28,860
Well, then play yours.

5065
03:14:29,020 --> 03:14:30,540
But you have 11 seconds.

5066
03:14:32,180 --> 03:14:34,000
How can yours be 11 seconds?

5067
03:14:34,460 --> 03:14:35,320
I don't think it is.

5068
03:14:35,440 --> 03:14:36,660
It says 11 seconds.

5069
03:14:36,940 --> 03:14:38,600
There's probably something wrong with the clip.

5070
03:14:38,760 --> 03:14:40,120
I'm just having issues.

5071
03:14:41,120 --> 03:14:42,660
Yeah, it appears to be.

5072
03:14:42,880 --> 03:14:44,600
I'm going to play yours now, and then

5073
03:14:44,600 --> 03:14:45,740
I'll see where we can find yours.

5074
03:14:45,740 --> 03:14:47,840
You might have two of them back-to

5075
03:14:47,840 --> 03:14:48,400
-back or something.

5076
03:14:48,420 --> 03:14:49,080
Another fabulous show.

5077
03:14:49,160 --> 03:14:50,160
What more can I say?

5078
03:14:50,160 --> 03:14:51,180
What is that?

5079
03:14:51,360 --> 03:14:52,280
Another fabulous show.

5080
03:14:52,340 --> 03:14:53,340
What more can I say?

5081
03:14:53,620 --> 03:14:54,780
Another fabulous show.

5082
03:14:54,880 --> 03:14:55,700
What more can I say?

5083
03:14:56,120 --> 03:14:57,100
Another fabulous show.

5084
03:14:57,180 --> 03:14:58,000
What more can I say?

5085
03:14:58,220 --> 03:14:59,140
Another fabulous show.

5086
03:14:59,300 --> 03:15:00,420
Another fabulous show.

5087
03:15:00,540 --> 03:15:01,360
What more can I say?

5088
03:15:02,140 --> 03:15:03,440
Another fabulous show.

5089
03:15:03,540 --> 03:15:04,320
What more can I say?

5090
03:15:04,420 --> 03:15:07,060
So that's you trying five different versions of

5091
03:15:07,060 --> 03:15:07,840
AI.

5092
03:15:08,480 --> 03:15:09,260
It's the first.

5093
03:15:10,940 --> 03:15:13,120
And, of course, I shouldn't have recorded the

5094
03:15:13,120 --> 03:15:15,360
whole thing, but the second one is the

5095
03:15:15,360 --> 03:15:15,960
one I wanted.

5096
03:15:17,000 --> 03:15:18,000
Another fabulous show.

5097
03:15:18,060 --> 03:15:18,880
What more can I say?

5098
03:15:18,880 --> 03:15:19,660
Yeah.

5099
03:15:19,940 --> 03:15:20,380
Boom.

5100
03:15:20,980 --> 03:15:21,180
Yeah.

5101
03:15:21,360 --> 03:15:23,760
Well, you've given away your ISO secrets here.

5102
03:15:24,160 --> 03:15:25,140
I know.

5103
03:15:25,260 --> 03:15:26,580
It was a huge blunder.

5104
03:15:26,720 --> 03:15:27,540
Yes, it was.

5105
03:15:27,640 --> 03:15:28,200
Here's mine.

5106
03:15:28,460 --> 03:15:29,220
Yo, yo, yo.

5107
03:15:29,620 --> 03:15:30,220
What up?

5108
03:15:31,100 --> 03:15:32,740
No, you already did that one.

5109
03:15:32,800 --> 03:15:33,820
No, it's a brand-new one.

5110
03:15:34,280 --> 03:15:35,480
It still stinks.

5111
03:15:35,720 --> 03:15:36,580
There we go, everybody.

5112
03:15:36,700 --> 03:15:37,960
It's time for the tip of the day.

5113
03:15:38,060 --> 03:15:39,760
At least John can't mess that one up.

5114
03:15:39,780 --> 03:15:40,300
Here we go.

5115
03:15:41,340 --> 03:15:43,740
Great advice for you and me.

5116
03:15:43,920 --> 03:15:46,420
Just a tip with JCB.

5117
03:15:47,500 --> 03:15:48,980
And sometimes Adam.

5118
03:15:49,740 --> 03:15:50,820
Created by Dana Brunetti.

5119
03:15:51,740 --> 03:15:53,280
All right, we're back to wine and food.

5120
03:15:53,340 --> 03:15:54,260
One more tip.

5121
03:15:55,020 --> 03:15:57,620
This is a website that I use a

5122
03:15:57,620 --> 03:16:00,240
lot, and it's a cheap trick.

5123
03:16:00,520 --> 03:16:01,620
You're buying wine.

5124
03:16:02,760 --> 03:16:04,200
Yes, we're buying wine.

5125
03:16:04,220 --> 03:16:05,480
You want to know if the wine's any

5126
03:16:05,480 --> 03:16:05,700
good.

5127
03:16:05,800 --> 03:16:06,760
What are you going to do?

5128
03:16:06,820 --> 03:16:07,540
What are we going to do?

5129
03:16:07,620 --> 03:16:09,660
You go to Wine Searcher.

5130
03:16:09,660 --> 03:16:10,540
Can I just say something?

5131
03:16:11,020 --> 03:16:11,320
Yeah.

5132
03:16:11,440 --> 03:16:12,540
I am getting complaints.

5133
03:16:12,540 --> 03:16:16,840
Sir Gene recently was at a dinner, texted

5134
03:16:16,840 --> 03:16:18,800
a picture of the wine list to you.

5135
03:16:18,880 --> 03:16:21,020
He says, John no longer responds.

5136
03:16:21,500 --> 03:16:22,640
I missed it.

5137
03:16:23,360 --> 03:16:24,660
I always respond.

5138
03:16:24,860 --> 03:16:25,820
The phone was in the drawer.

5139
03:16:27,500 --> 03:16:29,260
It should be sent to my email.

5140
03:16:29,760 --> 03:16:31,160
But I could be watching.

5141
03:16:31,360 --> 03:16:33,540
I might be downstairs getting clips, or I

5142
03:16:33,540 --> 03:16:34,480
could be doing a lot of things.

5143
03:16:34,560 --> 03:16:35,320
I'm sorry, Gene.

5144
03:16:35,560 --> 03:16:37,800
But generally speaking, I take care of this.

5145
03:16:40,900 --> 03:16:42,920
Wine-searcher.com.

5146
03:16:43,460 --> 03:16:43,620
Ooh.

5147
03:16:46,060 --> 03:16:50,340
This is a huge, monstrous database of wines

5148
03:16:50,340 --> 03:16:52,860
and all the reviews and all the stores

5149
03:16:52,860 --> 03:16:54,060
that sell the wine.

5150
03:16:54,520 --> 03:16:54,940
Wow.

5151
03:16:55,820 --> 03:16:57,480
So you get a look at the wine.

5152
03:16:57,700 --> 03:17:00,880
You put a wine at the top, say

5153
03:17:00,880 --> 03:17:03,500
Chateau Montrose, 1990.

5154
03:17:04,500 --> 03:17:04,640
Yeah.

5155
03:17:05,480 --> 03:17:08,180
And then it gives you where it's available,

5156
03:17:08,180 --> 03:17:11,340
all the different prices from cheapest to most

5157
03:17:11,340 --> 03:17:11,820
expensive.

5158
03:17:12,660 --> 03:17:14,100
And then you click on Reviews.

5159
03:17:14,140 --> 03:17:17,640
It shows you all the known reviews, and

5160
03:17:17,640 --> 03:17:19,620
it gives you summaries of the reviews, and

5161
03:17:19,620 --> 03:17:21,160
it gives you star ratings, and it even

5162
03:17:21,160 --> 03:17:24,200
goes to Cellar Tracker, which is a site

5163
03:17:24,200 --> 03:17:25,720
that a lot of people think is great.

5164
03:17:25,860 --> 03:17:27,420
I have Cellar Tracker, the app.

5165
03:17:28,360 --> 03:17:32,440
Yeah, Cellar Tracker, the app, which is amateurs

5166
03:17:32,440 --> 03:17:34,160
rating the wines.

5167
03:17:34,360 --> 03:17:35,000
That's correct.

5168
03:17:35,220 --> 03:17:37,740
It's amateurs rating the wine, taking pictures of

5169
03:17:37,740 --> 03:17:38,140
the label.

5170
03:17:38,260 --> 03:17:40,340
The label goes, oh, it should cost you

5171
03:17:40,340 --> 03:17:40,900
this much.

5172
03:17:41,560 --> 03:17:41,660
Yeah.

5173
03:17:42,340 --> 03:17:44,480
But it's got the Cellar Tracker number in

5174
03:17:44,480 --> 03:17:44,960
there, too.

5175
03:17:45,900 --> 03:17:46,820
It's dynamite.

5176
03:17:46,980 --> 03:17:49,660
This is a godsend for anyone who buys

5177
03:17:49,660 --> 03:17:50,100
wine.

5178
03:17:50,520 --> 03:17:53,160
And do you recommend this 1990 bottle you

5179
03:17:53,160 --> 03:17:53,660
just mentioned?

5180
03:17:53,760 --> 03:17:55,000
Is that like $8,000?

5181
03:17:55,560 --> 03:17:55,980
What is that?

5182
03:17:56,040 --> 03:17:57,560
The 1990 Montrose?

5183
03:17:57,560 --> 03:17:57,860
Yes.

5184
03:17:57,880 --> 03:17:58,880
What does that cost me?

5185
03:17:59,640 --> 03:18:00,620
Oh, it's not cheap.

5186
03:18:01,560 --> 03:18:03,220
But it's the one that's the top of

5187
03:18:03,220 --> 03:18:03,680
your mind.

5188
03:18:03,760 --> 03:18:04,960
It makes me wonder.

5189
03:18:05,380 --> 03:18:07,020
Well, it just came up to the top

5190
03:18:07,020 --> 03:18:07,460
of my mind.

5191
03:18:08,280 --> 03:18:10,200
I had it once in my life.

5192
03:18:10,300 --> 03:18:12,600
I'm thinking about Andres in a box, and

5193
03:18:12,600 --> 03:18:14,820
John's like, oh, the Montrose 1990.

5194
03:18:15,180 --> 03:18:16,040
That's what I'll have.

5195
03:18:16,600 --> 03:18:17,260
There you go, everybody.

5196
03:18:17,380 --> 03:18:18,640
You can find John's tip of the day

5197
03:18:18,640 --> 03:18:21,960
at tipoftheday.net or noagendafun.com.

5198
03:18:23,100 --> 03:18:25,400
Creating vibes for you and me.

5199
03:18:25,620 --> 03:18:28,060
Just the tip of the JCD.

5200
03:18:29,240 --> 03:18:30,640
And sometimes Adam.

5201
03:18:31,380 --> 03:18:32,440
Created by Dana Brunetti.

5202
03:18:32,540 --> 03:18:33,240
There you go, everybody.

5203
03:18:33,240 --> 03:18:35,600
Once again, we have completed our broadcast day,

5204
03:18:35,700 --> 03:18:37,460
and we are happy to have served you.

5205
03:18:37,600 --> 03:18:38,940
We do this as a public service.

5206
03:18:39,360 --> 03:18:40,940
You are welcome to support us with some

5207
03:18:40,940 --> 03:18:42,780
value if you got any value out of

5208
03:18:42,780 --> 03:18:47,340
this program, since clearly advertisers hate us, and

5209
03:18:47,340 --> 03:18:48,260
with good reason.

5210
03:18:49,060 --> 03:18:50,460
We are bad for their image.

5211
03:18:51,240 --> 03:18:55,360
So make sure you walk on by noagendadonations

5212
03:18:55,360 --> 03:18:58,080
.com, which soon will be available as a

5213
03:18:58,080 --> 03:19:00,120
button in your modern podcast app.

5214
03:19:00,140 --> 03:19:00,960
I guarantee it.

5215
03:19:01,780 --> 03:19:03,940
End of show mix is a nice Trip

5216
03:19:03,940 --> 03:19:06,200
House little ditty from Nautilus K.

5217
03:19:06,640 --> 03:19:07,460
I think he may be new.

5218
03:19:07,580 --> 03:19:08,660
I don't think he's ever done a mix

5219
03:19:08,660 --> 03:19:09,000
before.

5220
03:19:09,440 --> 03:19:11,620
And David Kekta checks in, our drummer.

5221
03:19:11,980 --> 03:19:13,900
Our drummer was always doing mixes.

5222
03:19:14,700 --> 03:19:16,320
He's got a hot new girlfriend, I hear.

5223
03:19:16,680 --> 03:19:18,220
So he's been a little sparse on the

5224
03:19:18,220 --> 03:19:18,480
mixes.

5225
03:19:20,560 --> 03:19:22,980
And I guess I can conclude by telling

5226
03:19:22,980 --> 03:19:24,620
you that I am still here in the

5227
03:19:24,620 --> 03:19:28,620
picturesque little town of Fredericksburg in the Texas

5228
03:19:28,620 --> 03:19:29,360
Hill Country.

5229
03:19:29,360 --> 03:19:30,860
In the morning, everybody.

5230
03:19:31,080 --> 03:19:31,860
I'm Adam Curry.

5231
03:19:32,020 --> 03:19:34,220
And from northern Silicon Valley, where I remain

5232
03:19:34,220 --> 03:19:35,940
without an arborist, I'm John C.

5233
03:19:36,020 --> 03:19:36,460
Dvorak.

5234
03:19:36,760 --> 03:19:40,840
We return on Sunday with another minimum three

5235
03:19:40,840 --> 03:19:43,480
hours of media deconstruction for your pleasure, again

5236
03:19:43,480 --> 03:19:44,380
as a public service.

5237
03:19:44,560 --> 03:19:47,780
And please remember us at noagendadonations.com.

5238
03:19:48,100 --> 03:19:51,940
Until then, adios mofos, and a hooey hooey,

5239
03:19:52,240 --> 03:19:52,820
and such.

5240
03:19:53,860 --> 03:19:59,630
R.S. King Jr. R.S. King Jr.

5241
03:20:00,890 --> 03:20:02,650
By the way, two good old boys is

5242
03:20:02,650 --> 03:20:02,890
next.

5243
03:21:35,900 --> 03:21:46,170

5247
03:23:00,710 --> 03:23:04,030
Dvorak.org slash N-A.

5248
03:23:04,870 --> 03:23:06,250
Another fabulous show.

5249
03:23:06,310 --> 03:23:07,090
What more can I say?
