1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,240
They're blacked out in Berlin, they're freezing to

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:02,520
death.

3
00:00:02,940 --> 00:00:04,420
Adam Curry, John C.

4
00:00:04,540 --> 00:00:04,980
Dvorak.

5
00:00:05,060 --> 00:00:07,280
It's Thursday, January 8th, 2026.

6
00:00:07,380 --> 00:00:09,040
This is your award-winning Kibble Nation Media

7
00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:11,300
Assassination Episode 1832.

8
00:00:11,580 --> 00:00:13,240
This is no agenda.

9
00:00:14,860 --> 00:00:16,620
Monitoring the mayhem.

10
00:00:16,820 --> 00:00:19,040
And broadcasting live from the heart of the

11
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,420
Texas Hill Country here in FEMA, region number

12
00:00:21,420 --> 00:00:21,880
six.

13
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,040
In the morning, everybody.

14
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,240
I'm Adam Curry.

15
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,220
And from northern Silicon Valley, we're congratulating Montana

16
00:00:28,220 --> 00:00:30,700
State and also the Iranian people.

17
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:31,280
I'm John C.

18
00:00:31,380 --> 00:00:31,820
Dvorak.

19
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,120
It's Klagbaum and Boskill in the morning!

20
00:00:36,340 --> 00:00:37,620
Yeah, I love that.

21
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:38,880
Just throw in a sports thing.

22
00:00:39,860 --> 00:00:43,700
The North Sea Nexus quad screen is broadcasting

23
00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:47,220
Minnesota 24-7, including the BBC.

24
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:49,480
They have not stopped.

25
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,020
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah,

26
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:53,360
oh yeah.

27
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,380
They got their marching orders from Schumer.

28
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:57,060
Oh man.

29
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,100
I had, where is it?

30
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:01,340
I had this one clip which really says

31
00:01:01,340 --> 00:01:02,880
it all just in the intro.

32
00:01:03,700 --> 00:01:05,840
Now to the protests in Minneapolis and across

33
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,560
the country after an immigration agent shot and

34
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,700
killed a woman on the street just blocks

35
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:12,720
away from where George Floyd was killed in

36
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:13,100
2020.

37
00:01:13,540 --> 00:01:14,020
That's all.

38
00:01:14,140 --> 00:01:15,120
That's all you need to know.

39
00:01:15,900 --> 00:01:17,220
It was a mile away.

40
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,980
It was a complete mile, not a couple

41
00:01:19,980 --> 00:01:20,600
of blocks.

42
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,340
It's all, but it doesn't even matter.

43
00:01:22,820 --> 00:01:23,820
That's what this is.

44
00:01:23,860 --> 00:01:26,680
This is the, it's like a fraxel.

45
00:01:27,540 --> 00:01:30,100
It is a fraxel in an odd way.

46
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,800
As long as, as long as Walz is

47
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,480
governor, they're gonna let it riot.

48
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,740
Let him riot, let him burn the tires.

49
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:39,120
His wife can smell there's burning rubber through

50
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:39,740
the window.

51
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:41,080
It is.

52
00:01:41,180 --> 00:01:43,280
And it's so interesting that this came right

53
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,520
on the heels of Walz dropping out of

54
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:47,620
the race.

55
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,580
Like, how happy must he be about that?

56
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,160
Where he can, he can leave, you know,

57
00:01:55,180 --> 00:01:57,240
a man of the people.

58
00:01:58,540 --> 00:01:59,940
Hero, a hero.

59
00:02:01,500 --> 00:02:03,620
So this thing, the whole thing is sad.

60
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,460
The whole thing is nasty and sad, but

61
00:02:06,460 --> 00:02:07,960
it context is everything.

62
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,280
And your media is not giving you context.

63
00:02:10,380 --> 00:02:14,100
They're not showing you the people assaulting these

64
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:16,320
ice agent, while assaulting with snowballs.

65
00:02:17,420 --> 00:02:20,220
You know, they're showing you one angle.

66
00:02:20,420 --> 00:02:24,100
It's like, and also this ice agent.

67
00:02:24,220 --> 00:02:25,700
Yeah, I, you know, if someone's trying to

68
00:02:25,700 --> 00:02:27,060
run me down with a car, I might

69
00:02:27,060 --> 00:02:28,140
pull my weapon too.

70
00:02:29,340 --> 00:02:32,300
So I'm sure he's not feeling great either.

71
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:33,980
Well, he got hit too.

72
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:34,960
Yeah, he did.

73
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,260
Oh yeah, no, you could see it.

74
00:02:36,460 --> 00:02:39,600
But, you know, then to, you know, triple

75
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,060
tap.

76
00:02:40,180 --> 00:02:41,680
I mean, it's hard to say what you

77
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,280
do in a moment like that, but I

78
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:43,420
can.

79
00:02:43,980 --> 00:02:45,360
Oh yeah, every time you see these cops

80
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,240
shooting, they unload the gun if they can.

81
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,580
Well, I think it's one, two, three.

82
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,320
That seems to be kind of the training.

83
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,180
That's like, it seems like it kicks in.

84
00:02:56,740 --> 00:02:58,580
And that's what he did.

85
00:02:58,820 --> 00:03:00,900
What was interesting with the story that hasn't,

86
00:03:01,020 --> 00:03:03,320
I don't think has been told yet, is

87
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,340
that this woman.

88
00:03:07,260 --> 00:03:09,140
Wait, what's her name?

89
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:11,480
Good.

90
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:13,220
No, you have to say her name.

91
00:03:26,180 --> 00:03:28,260
It is exactly the George Floyd stuff.

92
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,540
It's, it's, it's a, it's a carbon copy.

93
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,720
Although it's not a man, it's a woman.

94
00:03:33,900 --> 00:03:36,160
And it's, and she was white.

95
00:03:36,980 --> 00:03:39,980
But her wife, I don't think this was

96
00:03:39,980 --> 00:03:40,560
told yet.

97
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:41,540
Her wife.

98
00:03:41,740 --> 00:03:41,960
It was told.

99
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,060
Her wife is the one who told her

100
00:03:44,060 --> 00:03:45,880
to come down and lead this protest.

101
00:03:46,180 --> 00:03:49,000
And she was, she was leading the protest,

102
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,020
blocking ICE.

103
00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:51,320
It's like.

104
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:55,040
Well, here I have the clip that explains

105
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:55,700
some of that.

106
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:56,960
This is from Jesse Waters.

107
00:03:57,100 --> 00:03:58,920
He, he didn't have any trouble saying she

108
00:03:58,920 --> 00:03:59,640
was a lesbian.

109
00:04:01,780 --> 00:04:03,800
Um, where is it on here?

110
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:04,640
Minnesota.

111
00:04:06,020 --> 00:04:06,580
Shooting.

112
00:04:08,060 --> 00:04:09,620
I don't see it.

113
00:04:09,740 --> 00:04:10,960
Woman backgrounder.

114
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,080
Ah, there it is.

115
00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:15,079
Kristi Noem, who is in Minneapolis today, overseeing

116
00:04:15,079 --> 00:04:18,060
operations, is describing it as an act of

117
00:04:18,060 --> 00:04:19,160
domestic terrorism.

118
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,280
Multiple eyewitnesses have confirmed that this activist was

119
00:04:23,280 --> 00:04:27,420
screaming, yelling, disrupting ICE operations all day.

120
00:04:27,660 --> 00:04:30,620
One witness says she was the main car

121
00:04:30,620 --> 00:04:32,040
leading the protest.

122
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,400
You know, I think she was the target.

123
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:37,300
I don't know if she was a target.

124
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,940
They clearly wanted her out of there because

125
00:04:39,940 --> 00:04:43,180
she was the main car leading the, the

126
00:04:43,180 --> 00:04:44,860
protest is my understanding.

127
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,660
I talked to another guy who was driving

128
00:04:46,660 --> 00:04:47,440
behind her.

129
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,320
But she was, she was very, she was

130
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:53,760
very successful in blocking traffic.

131
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,460
She was doing what she was, what she

132
00:04:55,460 --> 00:04:56,260
was set out to do.

133
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,960
And so they wanted to get her the

134
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,480
hell out of there.

135
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,360
The woman who lost her life was a

136
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,440
self-proclaimed poet from Colorado with pronouns in

137
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,760
her bio, a 37 year old white woman

138
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:08,800
named Renee Good.

139
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,400
The Daily Mail says she leaves behind a

140
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,960
lesbian partner and a child from a previous

141
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:14,540
marriage.

142
00:05:15,060 --> 00:05:18,380
She was a disruptor, though she considered herself

143
00:05:18,380 --> 00:05:21,680
a legal observer, but there's no evidence she

144
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:22,560
had a law degree.

145
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,360
Different angles show different things.

146
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:28,060
You can see here the officer was actually

147
00:05:28,060 --> 00:05:29,020
hit by the car.

148
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,520
Yeah, even the angle, that's, I mean, if

149
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,140
you don't have the context then of what

150
00:05:34,140 --> 00:05:36,000
he just said, that, that, that was good

151
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:36,600
context.

152
00:05:36,980 --> 00:05:38,300
She was leading it the whole day.

153
00:05:38,660 --> 00:05:42,120
When did people become so emboldened, and Chicago

154
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,520
does this too, that they think they can

155
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,280
just assault ICE officers?

156
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,800
How, how does that happen?

157
00:05:48,900 --> 00:05:50,460
And in what world do you think that

158
00:05:50,460 --> 00:05:52,440
that can't turn out bad?

159
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,200
Well, this was discussed in a couple of

160
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,220
different, by a couple of different people claiming

161
00:06:01,220 --> 00:06:02,820
that this only takes place.

162
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,720
This never happens in an area where you

163
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,820
don't have political cover, where it's encouraged by

164
00:06:08,820 --> 00:06:11,720
the governor in this case, and Minnesota encourages

165
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:12,120
it.

166
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,720
They say, get to, put your body on

167
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,060
the line, get out there.

168
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:16,420
Really?

169
00:06:17,420 --> 00:06:17,860
Yeah.

170
00:06:18,380 --> 00:06:18,820
Wow.

171
00:06:19,980 --> 00:06:21,400
That, do you have any clips of that?

172
00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:22,400
I'd love to have that.

173
00:06:23,140 --> 00:06:25,340
Well, I have a bunch of analysis that

174
00:06:25,340 --> 00:06:28,880
may, from NTD that, that might have something

175
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:29,520
to do with it.

176
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,700
Let's play these clips.

177
00:06:30,840 --> 00:06:34,060
This is a Minnesota shooting analysis, NTD.

178
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,440
Joining us now is Kyle Schradler, Director and

179
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,140
Senior Analyst for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism at

180
00:06:39,140 --> 00:06:40,460
the Center for Security Policy.

181
00:06:40,700 --> 00:06:42,780
He's also the editor of the book, Unmasking

182
00:06:42,780 --> 00:06:45,820
Antifa, Five Perspectives on a Growing Threat.

183
00:06:46,260 --> 00:06:47,820
Kyle, thank you for joining us tonight.

184
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:50,080
Now, tensions are already beginning to flare in

185
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,640
Minnesota following this killing with protesters this afternoon,

186
00:06:53,780 --> 00:06:56,660
showing aggression towards police, driving them out of

187
00:06:56,660 --> 00:06:57,420
the crime scene.

188
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,440
In your assessment, though, what are the chances

189
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,300
this shooting sparks retaliation from anti-ICE and

190
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:05,500
other far-left groups?

191
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,140
And what could this look like?

192
00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:08,520
Well, I think it's probable.

193
00:07:08,700 --> 00:07:11,460
We have already seen in some far-left

194
00:07:11,460 --> 00:07:15,840
extremist social media calls to use arms, to

195
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,160
pick up arms against police in response to

196
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:18,680
this incident.

197
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,340
So the rhetoric is certainly hot.

198
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,680
It is certainly there.

199
00:07:22,820 --> 00:07:26,160
We've seen attacks, violent, perpetrated ambushes against ICE

200
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,040
officers in the past already.

201
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,100
So it's certainly within the skill set of

202
00:07:31,100 --> 00:07:33,080
some of these far-left extremist actors.

203
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,380
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey this afternoon accused federal

204
00:07:37,380 --> 00:07:39,880
immigration agents of, quote, causing chaos.

205
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,700
He said Minneapolis is demanding ICE to leave

206
00:07:42,700 --> 00:07:43,520
the city immediately.

207
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:46,300
What do you make of the mayor's response,

208
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:49,300
seemingly putting the blame on federal agents here?

209
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,240
Look, none of this would be happening if

210
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,640
the state of Minnesota and the city of

211
00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,100
Minneapolis did not illegally act as a sanctuary

212
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:04,420
city, trying to shield criminal illegal aliens from

213
00:08:04,420 --> 00:08:05,240
deportation.

214
00:08:05,420 --> 00:08:07,860
If they cooperated with the federal government and

215
00:08:07,860 --> 00:08:11,200
federal law enforcement in upholding immigration law, as

216
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,960
do most of the states in this country,

217
00:08:13,340 --> 00:08:16,000
they wouldn't be having these kinds of situations.

218
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:19,820
They deliberately inflame these situations with their sanctuary

219
00:08:19,820 --> 00:08:20,820
city policies.

220
00:08:20,980 --> 00:08:23,280
And then when federal law enforcement attempts to

221
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,860
uphold the laws they're sworn to do, they

222
00:08:25,860 --> 00:08:29,280
take the side of radical protesters against the

223
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:30,240
federal government.

224
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:35,280
Does he expound further on the Antifa angle?

225
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,919
Because, you know, that's kind of cropping up

226
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:38,280
everywhere.

227
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:40,240
Germany has been out of, you know, parts

228
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,740
of Berlin have been on a blackout because

229
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:47,760
Antifa, as they say, has been blowing up

230
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,800
power plants using some kind of relatively sophisticated

231
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,480
method.

232
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,620
I mean, this could be more of a

233
00:08:54,620 --> 00:08:57,780
worldwide problem, which I paid squarely.

234
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:58,700
Well, it would surprise me if it was

235
00:08:58,700 --> 00:08:59,180
worldwide.

236
00:08:59,400 --> 00:08:59,960
There was an end.

237
00:09:00,060 --> 00:09:02,860
I saw an Antifa flag in what?

238
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,380
What protest was it?

239
00:09:05,540 --> 00:09:07,260
It was, it was one.

240
00:09:07,420 --> 00:09:08,020
It was either.

241
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,380
It wasn't the Venezuela.

242
00:09:09,980 --> 00:09:10,720
No, it was.

243
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,260
I can't remember, but I took a screenshot

244
00:09:14,260 --> 00:09:14,560
of it.

245
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:15,520
I didn't follow up.

246
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,120
Well done.

247
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:17,800
Well done.

248
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:18,600
Yeah.

249
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:20,520
You know, there's only so much stuff you

250
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:20,740
could do.

251
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,500
I didn't get any of the Berlin stuff.

252
00:09:23,220 --> 00:09:24,480
And Mimi is always hounding me.

253
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:25,800
They were blacked out in Berlin.

254
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:27,020
They're freezing to death.

255
00:09:27,460 --> 00:09:28,520
Yeah, it's true.

256
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:29,480
It's true.

257
00:09:29,620 --> 00:09:29,980
It's bad.

258
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,620
Yeah, but, you know, it's only so many

259
00:09:31,620 --> 00:09:33,820
hours in the day to get this research.

260
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:35,480
But let's go with the I got two

261
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,540
more clips from this guy.

262
00:09:36,660 --> 00:09:37,260
All right, here we go.

263
00:09:37,260 --> 00:09:40,160
Now, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz this afternoon announced

264
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,360
that he issued a warning order to prepare

265
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,260
the Minnesota National Guard to, quote, protect Minnesotans

266
00:09:45,260 --> 00:09:47,080
from rogue ICE agents.

267
00:09:47,380 --> 00:09:49,660
How would an order like this work?

268
00:09:49,700 --> 00:09:52,800
Ordering state law enforcement to act against federal

269
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:53,820
law enforcement?

270
00:09:54,180 --> 00:09:56,680
Well, in practice, I don't see much likelihood

271
00:09:56,680 --> 00:09:58,560
of that being the case.

272
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,840
In all likelihood, I think probably Governor Walz

273
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,480
is trying to get ahead of President Trump

274
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,220
ordering the Minnesota National Guard to Minneapolis by

275
00:10:09,220 --> 00:10:11,260
having the state activate them first.

276
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,640
I don't anticipate that there being a real

277
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:19,040
probability of conflict between the National Guard and

278
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,120
federal law enforcement.

279
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,580
In most cases, they have very good cooperating

280
00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:23,140
relationship.

281
00:10:23,700 --> 00:10:27,200
If need be, President Trump could certainly federalize

282
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,700
the Minnesota National Guard if Governor Walz was

283
00:10:31,700 --> 00:10:33,940
to attempt to use it in a way

284
00:10:33,940 --> 00:10:36,620
to prohibit federal law enforcement officers from doing

285
00:10:36,620 --> 00:10:37,320
their job.

286
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,520
That certainly has sort of shades of some

287
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,380
of the incidents in the 1960s where the

288
00:10:44,380 --> 00:10:47,340
federal government deployed National Guard and even active

289
00:10:47,340 --> 00:10:50,340
military forces to some of the southern states

290
00:10:50,340 --> 00:10:54,800
to uphold civil rights legislation and to enforce

291
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,020
segregation, desegregation.

292
00:10:57,660 --> 00:11:00,200
So Tim Walz really is finding himself on

293
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,580
the wrong side of history here with some

294
00:11:02,580 --> 00:11:03,200
of his rhetoric.

295
00:11:03,460 --> 00:11:05,460
Let me just play some of that rhetoric.

296
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,380
I think it's like a minute here at

297
00:11:07,380 --> 00:11:08,660
the end of this clip of what he

298
00:11:08,660 --> 00:11:10,720
said because he made it sound very different

299
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:11,840
than our analyst here.

300
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,200
We won't let them tear us apart.

301
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,980
We'll not turn against each other.

302
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,400
To Minnesotans, I say this.

303
00:11:17,420 --> 00:11:18,320
I feel your anger.

304
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:19,100
I'm angry.

305
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:20,580
They want a show.

306
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,100
We can't give it to them.

307
00:11:22,420 --> 00:11:22,940
We cannot.

308
00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:25,360
If you can't give them what are on

309
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:25,880
our side.

310
00:11:27,020 --> 00:11:28,860
To Americans, I ask you this.

311
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,320
Please stand with Minneapolis.

312
00:11:31,180 --> 00:11:33,440
To Donald Trump and Kristi Noem, you've done

313
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:33,740
enough.

314
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,960
There's nothing more important than Minnesotan safety.

315
00:11:36,380 --> 00:11:38,140
I've issued a warning order to prepare the

316
00:11:38,140 --> 00:11:39,140
Minnesota National Guard.

317
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,160
We have soldiers in training and prepared to

318
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,260
be deployed if necessary.

319
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:44,440
I remind you, a warning order is a

320
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:45,440
heads up for folks.

321
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,680
And these National Guard troops are our National

322
00:11:48,680 --> 00:11:49,300
Guard troops.

323
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,200
They're teachers in your community.

324
00:11:51,580 --> 00:11:52,520
They're business owners.

325
00:11:52,740 --> 00:11:54,180
They're construction professionals.

326
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:56,280
They are Minnesotans.

327
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,500
Minnesota will not allow our community to be

328
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:00,340
used as a prop in a national political

329
00:12:00,340 --> 00:12:00,760
fight.

330
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,400
We will not take the bait.

331
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,220
So he's saying, hey, you know, these are

332
00:12:04,220 --> 00:12:04,640
our people.

333
00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:06,640
They're going to go fight the government forces.

334
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:07,880
Yeah, sure they are.

335
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:10,420
But the president can nationalize them.

336
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,100
I don't think he needs to because it's

337
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:14,280
not going to happen.

338
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,500
This is all talk.

339
00:12:16,020 --> 00:12:16,300
Yeah.

340
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,080
Well, it's all unfortunate.

341
00:12:19,300 --> 00:12:21,020
The whole thing is just it sucks.

342
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,340
And now there's a guy with a Black

343
00:12:22,340 --> 00:12:23,520
Lives Matter t-shirt.

344
00:12:23,700 --> 00:12:24,000
Okay.

345
00:12:24,220 --> 00:12:24,700
All right.

346
00:12:24,700 --> 00:12:26,260
You're still looking at the quad screen.

347
00:12:26,260 --> 00:12:26,820
How can you not?

348
00:12:26,940 --> 00:12:28,300
It's like it's nonstop.

349
00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:31,040
It's like a loop over and over and

350
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:31,500
over again.

351
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:32,420
All right.

352
00:12:32,620 --> 00:12:34,160
Oh, yeah, we're programmed.

353
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:34,780
We get it.

354
00:12:35,140 --> 00:12:37,760
This is all designed to get more votes

355
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,340
for the midterm elections.

356
00:12:40,020 --> 00:12:40,420
Absolutely.

357
00:12:40,860 --> 00:12:43,140
And so your quad screens are all...

358
00:12:43,140 --> 00:12:46,460
The media is desperate to get the Democrats

359
00:12:46,460 --> 00:12:47,060
back in.

360
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,040
You know what's interesting?

361
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:53,060
Ever since the Venezuela op, it is so

362
00:12:53,060 --> 00:12:53,600
apparent.

363
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,460
And it's kind of good that we deconstruct

364
00:12:56,460 --> 00:12:56,760
media.

365
00:12:56,900 --> 00:13:00,040
It is so apparent that the mainstream media,

366
00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:04,200
despite their low viewership, the incessant repetition and

367
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,580
breadth of where they can post and broadcast,

368
00:13:09,340 --> 00:13:13,140
it does determine the narrative of the podcast

369
00:13:13,140 --> 00:13:14,100
circle jerk.

370
00:13:14,680 --> 00:13:16,260
They all immediately switch.

371
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,060
Like, no one's talking about Israel.

372
00:13:19,220 --> 00:13:20,500
Where's the Mossad in all this?

373
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,080
Charlie Kirk, he's dead.

374
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:22,520
He's gone.

375
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,680
We don't talk about that.

376
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,660
I mean, you know, we don't even care

377
00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:26,900
about the Macron brothers.

378
00:13:27,300 --> 00:13:29,660
All of this stuff is just in one

379
00:13:29,660 --> 00:13:30,840
in one fell swoop.

380
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:31,920
It's all gone.

381
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,020
And interestingly, the biggest story, which, of course,

382
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,160
is Venezuela and the fallout from that and

383
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,300
the subsequent Cuba, Colombia, Greenland, we'll talk about

384
00:13:41,300 --> 00:13:41,600
that.

385
00:13:42,140 --> 00:13:44,200
That also just just all wiped off the

386
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:44,420
table.

387
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,720
Now it's all George Floyd the second.

388
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:48,320
It's insane.

389
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,000
And just listen to the podcast.

390
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,960
That's all they're talking about because they just

391
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,120
got to go on the narrative.

392
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,320
Maybe it's because they're doing a show every

393
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:55,660
day.

394
00:13:56,020 --> 00:13:57,500
If we had to do the show every

395
00:13:57,500 --> 00:13:58,580
day, I guess we do the same.

396
00:13:59,140 --> 00:14:01,460
Be like, what's going on, man?

397
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:03,240
Well, this is the hot news.

398
00:14:03,340 --> 00:14:04,040
You're talking about.

399
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,240
Well, well, here's the.

400
00:14:06,420 --> 00:14:08,920
Yeah, you actually might be right, because if

401
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,380
we did a show every day, we couldn't

402
00:14:10,380 --> 00:14:11,320
do any research.

403
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,320
No, you and I would just be talking.

404
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,200
Yeah, which is what most podcasts do.

405
00:14:16,900 --> 00:14:18,620
Let's yak, yak, yak about something.

406
00:14:18,700 --> 00:14:19,840
What do you see on TV?

407
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,100
Well, let me yak about that.

408
00:14:21,500 --> 00:14:23,100
Oh, what is Matt Walsh saying?

409
00:14:23,220 --> 00:14:24,220
Whoa, what is Tucker saying?

410
00:14:24,420 --> 00:14:25,640
Whoa, what is that?

411
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,100
Alex Jones talking about.

412
00:14:31,170 --> 00:14:34,050
Yeah, that every day is unless we had

413
00:14:34,050 --> 00:14:35,450
even if you had a staff.

414
00:14:35,830 --> 00:14:36,370
OK, here we go.

415
00:14:36,390 --> 00:14:38,930
Less of these analysis clips on this.

416
00:14:38,970 --> 00:14:41,230
Well, most regular Americans would never harm law

417
00:14:41,230 --> 00:14:41,750
enforcement.

418
00:14:41,750 --> 00:14:45,470
How, in your experiences, this kind of messaging

419
00:14:45,470 --> 00:14:48,750
interpreted by already radical individuals?

420
00:14:48,750 --> 00:14:51,410
Well, I think what it sends the message

421
00:14:51,410 --> 00:14:54,050
is that if they if they act, if

422
00:14:54,050 --> 00:14:57,270
they attempt to foment a riot or an

423
00:14:57,270 --> 00:15:01,510
unlawful assembly, they can expect some level of

424
00:15:01,510 --> 00:15:05,470
political cover where it is far left extremists

425
00:15:05,470 --> 00:15:07,930
think that they will get political cover from

426
00:15:07,930 --> 00:15:09,810
local or state politicians.

427
00:15:10,350 --> 00:15:11,850
They have a tendency to be a little

428
00:15:11,850 --> 00:15:12,650
bit more aggressive.

429
00:15:12,850 --> 00:15:15,290
We've certainly seen that in in the case

430
00:15:15,290 --> 00:15:18,250
of Portland, in Oregon, in Seattle, in Washington

431
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:21,570
State, for example, in places where they know

432
00:15:21,570 --> 00:15:23,210
they will not get political cover.

433
00:15:23,770 --> 00:15:26,410
These sorts of protests tend to be disrupted

434
00:15:26,410 --> 00:15:27,930
relatively early.

435
00:15:28,190 --> 00:15:29,570
They tend to stay more peaceful.

436
00:15:30,110 --> 00:15:32,370
And I think it really is important for

437
00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:34,810
the politicians in some of these areas to

438
00:15:34,810 --> 00:15:36,450
get ahead of this stuff and say, look,

439
00:15:36,930 --> 00:15:39,050
you know, you can have whatever political opinion

440
00:15:39,050 --> 00:15:39,810
you want.

441
00:15:39,970 --> 00:15:41,290
You are allowed to be upset.

442
00:15:41,410 --> 00:15:44,190
You are allowed to protest lawfully.

443
00:15:44,190 --> 00:15:47,310
But we will not countenance any criminal activity.

444
00:15:47,490 --> 00:15:49,790
We will not countenance rioting, will not countenance

445
00:15:49,790 --> 00:15:53,510
attacking police officers, whether local, state or federal.

446
00:15:54,490 --> 00:15:57,010
It's interesting, you know, you said about doing

447
00:15:57,010 --> 00:15:57,690
research.

448
00:15:58,450 --> 00:16:00,890
I was talking to Tina about the the

449
00:16:00,890 --> 00:16:02,850
history of Venezuela, which we talked about on

450
00:16:02,850 --> 00:16:03,530
the last episode.

451
00:16:04,170 --> 00:16:06,970
And she says, well, how come how come

452
00:16:06,970 --> 00:16:09,930
Megan Kelly, she has she has a staff.

453
00:16:09,970 --> 00:16:12,230
She has a staff millions of dollars, which

454
00:16:12,230 --> 00:16:13,150
may or may not be true.

455
00:16:13,150 --> 00:16:13,650
I don't know.

456
00:16:14,330 --> 00:16:16,170
But how come they have staff?

457
00:16:16,230 --> 00:16:17,110
How come they don't do this?

458
00:16:17,390 --> 00:16:18,050
What's going on?

459
00:16:18,090 --> 00:16:20,950
I said, because that's not because they're dumb.

460
00:16:21,050 --> 00:16:21,750
They're no good.

461
00:16:22,170 --> 00:16:23,730
They're just about no good.

462
00:16:24,010 --> 00:16:25,290
That's the real reason.

463
00:16:25,410 --> 00:16:25,950
They're no good.

464
00:16:26,010 --> 00:16:28,030
They just want clicks and smash that subscribe

465
00:16:28,030 --> 00:16:29,650
button and watch my clips.

466
00:16:31,050 --> 00:16:33,290
Nobody watches a full Megan Kelly anymore.

467
00:16:33,390 --> 00:16:35,570
They just watch the clips on YouTube, which

468
00:16:35,570 --> 00:16:37,390
I don't even think she can monetize properly.

469
00:16:37,510 --> 00:16:37,950
And I don't know.

470
00:16:38,570 --> 00:16:41,490
I noticed this, too, if I didn't realize

471
00:16:41,490 --> 00:16:45,110
because I'm still looking at Fuentes now and

472
00:16:45,110 --> 00:16:47,630
again and the clips that he does the

473
00:16:47,630 --> 00:16:48,350
same thing.

474
00:16:48,650 --> 00:16:51,130
And all these the negative things that everyone

475
00:16:51,130 --> 00:16:53,490
thinks about Fuentes is all from the clips.

476
00:16:53,690 --> 00:16:56,430
It's all from his own clips that he

477
00:16:56,430 --> 00:16:56,930
did.

478
00:16:56,990 --> 00:16:57,490
Yeah, he's good.

479
00:16:58,010 --> 00:16:59,990
It's not somebody else doing the clips.

480
00:17:00,290 --> 00:17:03,750
He purposely puts together clips that are taken

481
00:17:03,750 --> 00:17:03,950
out.

482
00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:05,089
He takes his own stuff.

483
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:07,390
This is genius in some funny way.

484
00:17:07,390 --> 00:17:10,670
He takes his own material out of context.

485
00:17:10,869 --> 00:17:12,050
Yeah, and then post it.

486
00:17:12,290 --> 00:17:12,390
Yeah.

487
00:17:13,430 --> 00:17:15,490
Well, I guess everybody all riled up.

488
00:17:15,589 --> 00:17:15,770
Yeah.

489
00:17:15,869 --> 00:17:17,369
And then, you know, you actually go and

490
00:17:17,369 --> 00:17:17,890
watch it.

491
00:17:17,930 --> 00:17:19,150
It's like, oh, I'm tired.

492
00:17:19,690 --> 00:17:21,250
I mean, it's nothing to watch, really.

493
00:17:21,390 --> 00:17:23,089
He's someone I just want to listen to.

494
00:17:23,450 --> 00:17:24,589
I can't watch him.

495
00:17:24,670 --> 00:17:26,369
This is the dude behind a desk for

496
00:17:26,369 --> 00:17:27,329
two and a half hours.

497
00:17:28,370 --> 00:17:30,570
Imagine if we had video.

498
00:17:30,850 --> 00:17:31,710
People like, what is this?

499
00:17:31,750 --> 00:17:32,870
What are these boomers doing?

500
00:17:32,910 --> 00:17:34,190
I want to watch that.

501
00:17:35,030 --> 00:17:38,710
Yeah, unless we're smoking cigars.

502
00:17:39,090 --> 00:17:42,650
And I want to play this.

503
00:17:42,850 --> 00:17:45,110
The response from Kristi Noem, I just find

504
00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:47,450
to be such an interesting character.

505
00:17:48,150 --> 00:17:49,910
Now she's got a big cowboy hat.

506
00:17:50,670 --> 00:17:52,030
Yeah, she likes getting.

507
00:17:52,230 --> 00:17:54,790
She's like a cosplayer wannabe.

508
00:17:54,990 --> 00:17:56,570
She's always dressed up.

509
00:17:56,650 --> 00:18:00,730
She wears the DHS uniform.

510
00:18:01,490 --> 00:18:01,790
Camo, camo.

511
00:18:01,790 --> 00:18:07,770
She'll wear a bulletproof vest during a press

512
00:18:07,770 --> 00:18:08,430
conference.

513
00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:11,290
So she's dressed like the sheriff.

514
00:18:11,510 --> 00:18:11,890
I don't know.

515
00:18:12,710 --> 00:18:15,970
She's a fascinating person to look at.

516
00:18:16,170 --> 00:18:17,450
And here's what she said.

517
00:18:17,670 --> 00:18:19,530
You asked about a shooting that we just

518
00:18:19,530 --> 00:18:20,970
had in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

519
00:18:21,650 --> 00:18:23,390
It was an act of domestic terrorism.

520
00:18:24,250 --> 00:18:26,650
What happened was our ICE officers were out

521
00:18:26,650 --> 00:18:27,710
in enforcement action.

522
00:18:28,350 --> 00:18:30,070
They got stuck in the snow because of

523
00:18:30,070 --> 00:18:31,890
the adverse weather that is in Minneapolis.

524
00:18:32,150 --> 00:18:33,690
They were attempting to push out their vehicle

525
00:18:33,690 --> 00:18:36,190
and a woman attacked them and those surrounding

526
00:18:36,190 --> 00:18:37,950
them and attempted to run them over and

527
00:18:37,950 --> 00:18:39,750
ram them with her vehicle.

528
00:18:40,250 --> 00:18:43,970
An officer of ours acted quickly and defensively

529
00:18:43,970 --> 00:18:46,810
shot to protect himself and the people around

530
00:18:46,810 --> 00:18:47,130
him.

531
00:18:47,710 --> 00:18:50,390
And my understanding is that she was hit

532
00:18:50,390 --> 00:18:51,310
and is deceased.

533
00:18:51,570 --> 00:18:53,690
We're continuing to gather more information.

534
00:18:53,690 --> 00:18:56,650
But this goes to show the assaults that

535
00:18:56,650 --> 00:18:58,390
our ICE officers and our law enforcement are

536
00:18:58,390 --> 00:18:59,670
under every single day.

537
00:19:00,150 --> 00:19:03,130
These vehicle rammings are domestic acts of terrorism.

538
00:19:03,530 --> 00:19:05,510
We're working with the Department of Justice to

539
00:19:05,510 --> 00:19:06,750
prosecute them as such.

540
00:19:07,130 --> 00:19:09,750
We will continue to protect our ICE officers.

541
00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:13,550
How does she get domestic terrorism out of

542
00:19:13,550 --> 00:19:13,870
this?

543
00:19:16,110 --> 00:19:17,170
Unless it's political.

544
00:19:18,450 --> 00:19:20,450
I just don't see the connection.

545
00:19:21,610 --> 00:19:24,370
Doesn't terrorism by definition have to have a

546
00:19:24,370 --> 00:19:24,650
political?

547
00:19:24,690 --> 00:19:26,310
Well, I guess it is in a way.

548
00:19:26,490 --> 00:19:27,790
It's about the midterms.

549
00:19:27,950 --> 00:19:29,030
But I think it's a stretch.

550
00:19:29,370 --> 00:19:30,670
Yeah, feels like that too.

551
00:19:30,870 --> 00:19:32,930
Operation with other law enforcement agencies as well.

552
00:19:33,610 --> 00:19:34,910
You've seen me in the last couple of

553
00:19:34,910 --> 00:19:37,430
days deploy over 2,000 more officers to

554
00:19:37,430 --> 00:19:38,450
the Minneapolis area.

555
00:19:38,610 --> 00:19:41,130
And in the last two days, we've arrested

556
00:19:41,130 --> 00:19:43,530
hundreds and hundreds of dangerous criminals.

557
00:19:43,770 --> 00:19:46,070
Not just fraudsters who stole from the American

558
00:19:46,070 --> 00:19:47,950
people billions of dollars and put it in

559
00:19:47,950 --> 00:19:51,070
their pockets and enriched their friends from overseas

560
00:19:51,070 --> 00:19:54,810
and themselves, but also individuals who committed acts

561
00:19:54,810 --> 00:19:58,190
of murder and rape and trafficking and drug

562
00:19:58,190 --> 00:20:00,390
exploitation and child exploitation.

563
00:20:00,730 --> 00:20:02,410
So we're going to continue to do our

564
00:20:02,410 --> 00:20:02,750
work.

565
00:20:03,030 --> 00:20:05,590
And I want to remind everybody that the

566
00:20:05,590 --> 00:20:07,730
act like we saw today of using a

567
00:20:07,730 --> 00:20:10,650
vehicle to try to kill an officer and

568
00:20:10,650 --> 00:20:12,630
his colleagues and the other people around him

569
00:20:13,190 --> 00:20:17,090
is something that every politician, every elected official,

570
00:20:17,330 --> 00:20:19,570
everyone in this country should be able to

571
00:20:19,570 --> 00:20:21,470
rally around and say that it is wrong.

572
00:20:22,030 --> 00:20:25,710
And that sanctuary cities and sanctuary states that

573
00:20:25,710 --> 00:20:28,750
protect individuals who do that should no longer

574
00:20:28,750 --> 00:20:29,770
be allowed.

575
00:20:29,950 --> 00:20:31,830
So that is the I just call it

576
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:33,830
the counter narrative at this point, if you

577
00:20:33,830 --> 00:20:34,590
look at the media.

578
00:20:35,290 --> 00:20:37,410
And of course, you know, I'm sure that

579
00:20:37,410 --> 00:20:40,470
Candace and the folks that redacted will be

580
00:20:40,470 --> 00:20:42,630
examining every frame of the video.

581
00:20:43,050 --> 00:20:44,050
Bring in the experts.

582
00:20:45,330 --> 00:20:45,930
Did he hit her?

583
00:20:46,230 --> 00:20:46,870
Did she hit him?

584
00:20:46,990 --> 00:20:47,430
Did she hit?

585
00:20:47,510 --> 00:20:49,130
Did she not hit him with the wheels

586
00:20:49,130 --> 00:20:50,550
turned in the right direction?

587
00:20:51,450 --> 00:20:52,710
It's so out of context.

588
00:20:53,190 --> 00:20:56,810
So here's the narrative being launched by the

589
00:20:56,810 --> 00:20:58,870
mayor, Jacob Frey.

590
00:20:58,950 --> 00:20:59,990
I think he's the mayor, right?

591
00:21:00,210 --> 00:21:01,350
Minneapolis guy.

592
00:21:01,650 --> 00:21:02,410
He's on with pooper.

593
00:21:02,710 --> 00:21:03,970
Mayor, appreciate you talking to us.

594
00:21:04,030 --> 00:21:05,610
You heard the comments from President Trump, from

595
00:21:05,610 --> 00:21:06,290
Secretary Noem.

596
00:21:06,370 --> 00:21:07,970
They said the ICE officer acted in self

597
00:21:07,970 --> 00:21:08,450
-defense.

598
00:21:08,450 --> 00:21:10,690
There's obviously a huge disagreement about what the

599
00:21:10,690 --> 00:21:11,710
videos show.

600
00:21:12,010 --> 00:21:13,990
Have you completely made up your mind or

601
00:21:13,990 --> 00:21:14,970
do you still have questions?

602
00:21:15,230 --> 00:21:16,830
Well, we know what his mind is at.

603
00:21:16,950 --> 00:21:18,990
I'm not going to preempt the investigation that

604
00:21:18,990 --> 00:21:20,070
will be taking place.

605
00:21:20,070 --> 00:21:22,730
I'm told by the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension

606
00:21:22,730 --> 00:21:23,410
at the state.

607
00:21:23,530 --> 00:21:24,690
But I got two eyes.

608
00:21:24,810 --> 00:21:27,230
I saw the same videos that you saw.

609
00:21:27,290 --> 00:21:31,570
And the notion that this is domestic terrorism

610
00:21:31,570 --> 00:21:34,670
on the form of the victim.

611
00:21:35,310 --> 00:21:37,010
Yeah, it's positively ridiculous.

612
00:21:37,010 --> 00:21:38,870
I mean, the way that ICE is behaving

613
00:21:38,870 --> 00:21:41,750
is reckless, not just in this incident, but

614
00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:42,470
numerous others.

615
00:21:42,590 --> 00:21:43,370
And here's the thing.

616
00:21:43,910 --> 00:21:46,430
The chief and I have been saying not

617
00:21:46,430 --> 00:21:48,950
just privately, but very publicly for well over

618
00:21:48,950 --> 00:21:49,530
a month.

619
00:21:49,730 --> 00:21:52,890
That something like this was going to happen.

620
00:21:53,490 --> 00:21:57,110
Either a civilian, a police officer or even

621
00:21:57,110 --> 00:22:00,430
an ICE agent getting injured badly or killed.

622
00:22:00,950 --> 00:22:04,710
And so, look, I saw exactly what happened.

623
00:22:04,710 --> 00:22:07,170
What you saw was the victim taking at

624
00:22:07,170 --> 00:22:08,990
least like a three-point turn.

625
00:22:09,150 --> 00:22:12,250
This was clearly not with any sort of

626
00:22:12,250 --> 00:22:14,510
intention to run somebody over, but to get

627
00:22:14,510 --> 00:22:14,970
out of there.

628
00:22:15,470 --> 00:22:17,770
And you don't need a legal degree to

629
00:22:17,770 --> 00:22:19,930
know that that does not authorize the use

630
00:22:19,930 --> 00:22:20,650
of deadly force.

631
00:22:20,890 --> 00:22:22,570
Yeah, this is the narrative based upon the

632
00:22:22,570 --> 00:22:22,770
video.

633
00:22:22,850 --> 00:22:23,630
We all saw the video.

634
00:22:23,710 --> 00:22:24,610
You saw the video, didn't you?

635
00:22:24,630 --> 00:22:25,290
I saw the video.

636
00:22:25,450 --> 00:22:26,630
I saw it with my own two eyes,

637
00:22:26,690 --> 00:22:27,170
the video.

638
00:22:28,130 --> 00:22:31,290
So that is the counter narrative or the

639
00:22:31,290 --> 00:22:32,170
narrative, I should say.

640
00:22:32,690 --> 00:22:34,870
It's like she was trying to get away.

641
00:22:35,710 --> 00:22:37,990
No, but there's no context of what happened

642
00:22:37,990 --> 00:22:38,430
before.

643
00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:40,390
I've got another clip here from this guy.

644
00:22:41,590 --> 00:22:43,290
Secretary Noem criticized you directly in a news

645
00:22:43,290 --> 00:22:44,270
conference a short time ago.

646
00:22:44,350 --> 00:22:45,290
I just want to play that and let

647
00:22:45,290 --> 00:22:45,770
you respond.

648
00:22:46,010 --> 00:22:47,350
Yeah, why does it take so long to

649
00:22:47,350 --> 00:22:48,050
start your clips?

650
00:22:48,390 --> 00:22:50,950
Because Governor Walz and Mayor Frey refused to

651
00:22:50,950 --> 00:22:52,230
protect Minnesotans.

652
00:22:52,530 --> 00:22:54,450
And instead, they protect these criminals.

653
00:22:54,950 --> 00:22:55,930
That's why we are here.

654
00:22:56,170 --> 00:22:58,070
And we didn't just show up yesterday.

655
00:22:58,210 --> 00:22:59,430
We've always been here.

656
00:22:59,430 --> 00:23:02,590
By not working with us, Governor Walz and

657
00:23:02,590 --> 00:23:05,450
Mayor Frey are putting those criminals and prioritizing

658
00:23:05,450 --> 00:23:07,070
them over our children and our grandchildren.

659
00:23:08,170 --> 00:23:10,070
The Secretary's adamant ICE is staying.

660
00:23:10,190 --> 00:23:11,150
You're calling for ICE to leave.

661
00:23:11,210 --> 00:23:11,910
What happens now?

662
00:23:12,430 --> 00:23:13,510
And what do you say to her accusation?

663
00:23:14,570 --> 00:23:16,650
First off, when I hear that, that sounds

664
00:23:16,650 --> 00:23:19,810
to me like someone that does not believe

665
00:23:19,810 --> 00:23:22,530
a word that she is saying.

666
00:23:23,490 --> 00:23:26,670
We have worked with federal agencies, by the

667
00:23:26,670 --> 00:23:26,810
way.

668
00:23:26,830 --> 00:23:27,650
This is a good clip.

669
00:23:28,090 --> 00:23:28,370
What?

670
00:23:29,070 --> 00:23:30,170
This is a good clip.

671
00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:30,550
Yeah.

672
00:23:30,570 --> 00:23:31,250
This guy.

673
00:23:31,350 --> 00:23:32,070
He's amazing.

674
00:23:32,250 --> 00:23:34,170
This guy, I mean, he's the liar.

675
00:23:34,430 --> 00:23:38,470
Actually around investigating violent crime, preventing a narcotics

676
00:23:38,470 --> 00:23:40,970
trade, getting guns off the street.

677
00:23:41,310 --> 00:23:43,410
We've worked with the U.S. Attorney's Office

678
00:23:43,410 --> 00:23:44,050
substantially.

679
00:23:44,350 --> 00:23:46,110
We've driven down crime on the north side,

680
00:23:46,170 --> 00:23:46,730
for instance.

681
00:23:47,230 --> 00:23:49,710
Crime is, and specifically shootings are at an

682
00:23:49,710 --> 00:23:50,810
historic low.

683
00:23:51,150 --> 00:23:54,210
So look, we're pro-law enforcement.

684
00:23:54,770 --> 00:23:57,370
We're anti-violating the Constitution.

685
00:23:59,090 --> 00:24:00,730
We're anti-crime.

686
00:24:01,290 --> 00:24:03,210
But we're pro-getting ICE out of here

687
00:24:03,210 --> 00:24:05,510
because I got to say, they are causing

688
00:24:05,510 --> 00:24:07,670
so many problems in our city.

689
00:24:09,170 --> 00:24:11,270
You know, the stated reason, again, is safety.

690
00:24:11,470 --> 00:24:13,010
But what we are seeing is that they

691
00:24:13,010 --> 00:24:14,830
are tearing families apart.

692
00:24:15,550 --> 00:24:17,830
We are seeing people that are terrified to

693
00:24:17,830 --> 00:24:19,730
go outside, go to their local businesses.

694
00:24:20,070 --> 00:24:22,890
And now exactly what we said would likely

695
00:24:22,890 --> 00:24:24,150
happen, happened.

696
00:24:24,290 --> 00:24:25,170
I hate to be right here.

697
00:24:25,410 --> 00:24:26,470
I hate to be right.

698
00:24:27,170 --> 00:24:27,890
Oh, brother.

699
00:24:27,990 --> 00:24:29,810
There was, there's also another narrative.

700
00:24:30,090 --> 00:24:31,070
Hate to be right.

701
00:24:31,330 --> 00:24:34,930
Yeah, there's another narrative launched by, what's his

702
00:24:34,930 --> 00:24:35,770
name here?

703
00:24:36,510 --> 00:24:38,050
This is Hakeem Jeffries.

704
00:24:38,250 --> 00:24:38,870
Let's listen to him.

705
00:24:39,050 --> 00:24:41,830
First up, Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York,

706
00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:43,330
leader of the House Democrats.

707
00:24:43,690 --> 00:24:45,670
I spoke with him this afternoon and started

708
00:24:45,670 --> 00:24:48,050
by asking his assessment of what happened in

709
00:24:48,050 --> 00:24:49,010
Minneapolis today.

710
00:24:50,150 --> 00:24:52,850
There is no evidence that has been presented

711
00:24:52,850 --> 00:24:56,610
to justify the shooting of an unarmed woman

712
00:24:56,610 --> 00:25:01,010
resulting in her unnecessary death.

713
00:25:01,730 --> 00:25:03,910
Kristi Noem, the so-called Secretary of Homeland

714
00:25:03,910 --> 00:25:04,430
Security.

715
00:25:04,750 --> 00:25:04,850
What?

716
00:25:04,870 --> 00:25:05,570
So-called.

717
00:25:06,070 --> 00:25:07,330
So-called.

718
00:25:08,570 --> 00:25:09,790
That's her job.

719
00:25:09,950 --> 00:25:10,770
She's got the job.

720
00:25:10,950 --> 00:25:13,270
She was approved by Congress.

721
00:25:13,510 --> 00:25:14,630
She's not so-called.

722
00:25:14,770 --> 00:25:15,170
So-called.

723
00:25:15,170 --> 00:25:16,470
This guy's the worst.

724
00:25:16,550 --> 00:25:17,230
No, he's great.

725
00:25:17,510 --> 00:25:20,730
Is a stone cold liar who has zero

726
00:25:20,730 --> 00:25:24,110
credibility on this issue or on any other

727
00:25:24,110 --> 00:25:24,510
issue.

728
00:25:24,990 --> 00:25:27,370
And what we need, as I believe the

729
00:25:27,370 --> 00:25:31,730
governor has indicated, is a full and complete

730
00:25:31,730 --> 00:25:32,510
investigation.

731
00:25:33,390 --> 00:25:36,870
This rogue ICE agent who pulled the trigger

732
00:25:36,870 --> 00:25:40,550
should be criminally- This is the narrative

733
00:25:40,550 --> 00:25:40,650
he's playing.

734
00:25:40,650 --> 00:25:42,110
They used rogue in the other clip.

735
00:25:42,250 --> 00:25:43,110
Somebody else used it.

736
00:25:43,190 --> 00:25:46,010
Rogue was the, that came out of Minnesota.

737
00:25:46,330 --> 00:25:47,990
The, I think even Walsh used it.

738
00:25:48,090 --> 00:25:48,510
Rogue.

739
00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:49,590
Yes, rogue.

740
00:25:49,770 --> 00:25:50,590
You went rogue.

741
00:25:50,590 --> 00:25:54,430
This rogue ICE agent who pulled the trigger

742
00:25:54,430 --> 00:25:59,270
should be criminally investigated to the full extent

743
00:25:59,270 --> 00:26:04,170
of the law, including for demonstrating a depraved

744
00:26:04,170 --> 00:26:06,290
indifference to human life.

745
00:26:06,950 --> 00:26:07,510
All right.

746
00:26:07,590 --> 00:26:08,850
So it's all very sad.

747
00:26:09,270 --> 00:26:10,710
Nobody wins in this one.

748
00:26:11,710 --> 00:26:14,810
But in the meantime, there's so much going

749
00:26:14,810 --> 00:26:15,670
on in Minnesota.

750
00:26:15,670 --> 00:26:20,130
The Minnesota Department of Health and Human Services

751
00:26:20,130 --> 00:26:22,530
has done an audit.

752
00:26:23,070 --> 00:26:26,150
I think this came out on the 6th.

753
00:26:27,290 --> 00:26:30,630
And here's the lady who's running this audit.

754
00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:32,310
It's pretty interesting.

755
00:26:32,570 --> 00:26:35,010
Another sobering report by the Office of the

756
00:26:35,010 --> 00:26:35,910
Legislative Auditor.

757
00:26:35,970 --> 00:26:38,770
This one concerning the Behavioral Health Administration within

758
00:26:38,770 --> 00:26:41,530
the Department of Human Services, which issues grants

759
00:26:41,530 --> 00:26:44,070
to providers treating mental health and drug and

760
00:26:44,070 --> 00:26:44,890
alcohol addiction.

761
00:26:44,890 --> 00:26:47,330
Hundreds of millions of dollars each year.

762
00:26:47,610 --> 00:26:49,810
The audit found them issuing grants to applicants

763
00:26:49,810 --> 00:26:51,650
without a bidding process.

764
00:26:52,030 --> 00:26:54,490
So what we saw is that there was

765
00:26:54,490 --> 00:26:58,170
multiple entities that could have been eligible, and

766
00:26:58,170 --> 00:27:01,270
they chose not to provide a justification for

767
00:27:01,270 --> 00:27:02,670
why they were picking those.

768
00:27:02,850 --> 00:27:05,610
This report is quite stunning.

769
00:27:05,970 --> 00:27:07,930
One outrageous example.

770
00:27:07,930 --> 00:27:10,330
The auditors found a grantee that was paid

771
00:27:10,330 --> 00:27:14,670
$672,000 for one month of work without

772
00:27:14,670 --> 00:27:16,690
any info on what they do.

773
00:27:16,950 --> 00:27:18,990
And the audit says the grant manager who

774
00:27:18,990 --> 00:27:21,970
paid it then left DHS a couple days

775
00:27:21,970 --> 00:27:24,690
later and became a paid consultant for that

776
00:27:24,690 --> 00:27:25,090
company.

777
00:27:25,330 --> 00:27:26,130
That's what you do.

778
00:27:26,310 --> 00:27:27,450
To me, that's criminal.

779
00:27:27,850 --> 00:27:30,570
Auditor Judy Randall says she was most shocked

780
00:27:30,570 --> 00:27:34,270
that during the audit, multiple DHS managers backdated

781
00:27:34,270 --> 00:27:37,030
or created new documents to try to cover

782
00:27:37,030 --> 00:27:37,770
their tracks.

783
00:27:37,970 --> 00:27:40,270
Frankly, in the 27 plus years I've been

784
00:27:40,270 --> 00:27:42,670
with OLA, I have never seen this before.

785
00:27:43,230 --> 00:27:46,010
I will say we have had suspicions periodically,

786
00:27:46,010 --> 00:27:49,110
but we have never been able to prove

787
00:27:49,110 --> 00:27:50,550
it, to document it.

788
00:27:50,750 --> 00:27:52,250
And we did in this case.

789
00:27:52,410 --> 00:27:53,590
And it's very troubling.

790
00:27:54,090 --> 00:27:57,070
Temporary DHS Commissioner Shereen Gandhi's response.

791
00:27:57,070 --> 00:28:00,510
I was shocked to hear this information in

792
00:28:00,510 --> 00:28:01,690
the exit conference.

793
00:28:02,330 --> 00:28:06,690
And it is absolutely unacceptable that any staff

794
00:28:06,690 --> 00:28:11,890
would provide anything other than accurate representation of

795
00:28:11,890 --> 00:28:13,570
the work done to an auditor.

796
00:28:13,850 --> 00:28:13,950
Yeah.

797
00:28:14,050 --> 00:28:14,550
So the whole...

798
00:28:14,550 --> 00:28:15,590
And this is not just Minnesota.

799
00:28:15,770 --> 00:28:17,010
This has got to be everywhere.

800
00:28:18,630 --> 00:28:21,030
I have a clip called...

801
00:28:21,030 --> 00:28:23,050
The fraudster's clip covers this a little bit,

802
00:28:23,150 --> 00:28:25,210
adds a couple of items.

803
00:28:25,830 --> 00:28:28,430
But I like the way they use the

804
00:28:28,430 --> 00:28:31,330
intermixing of using the Department of Health and

805
00:28:31,330 --> 00:28:34,930
Human Services, DHS, with Department of Homeland Security

806
00:28:34,930 --> 00:28:38,590
in the mind is, oh, DHS is corrupt.

807
00:28:38,730 --> 00:28:40,110
Yeah, we have too many acronyms.

808
00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:43,410
Well, I mean, we don't have enough, apparently.

809
00:28:44,270 --> 00:28:46,030
Let's listen to the fraudster's clip.

810
00:28:46,470 --> 00:28:48,450
House lawmakers on the oversight committee are exposing

811
00:28:48,450 --> 00:28:51,090
a multi-billion dollar fraud scheme taking place

812
00:28:51,090 --> 00:28:51,870
in Minnesota.

813
00:28:51,870 --> 00:28:55,570
Around $9 billion meant to support Minnesota programs

814
00:28:55,570 --> 00:28:58,350
may have been stolen since 2018, a federal

815
00:28:58,350 --> 00:29:00,230
prosecutor reported last month.

816
00:29:00,450 --> 00:29:02,710
House Republicans on the committee this morning criticized

817
00:29:02,710 --> 00:29:05,370
Minnesota officials for not acting quickly enough to

818
00:29:05,370 --> 00:29:05,910
stop it.

819
00:29:06,250 --> 00:29:09,450
Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and

820
00:29:09,450 --> 00:29:12,610
Minnesota's Democrat leadership have either been asleep at

821
00:29:12,610 --> 00:29:15,730
the wheel or complicit in these crimes.

822
00:29:16,230 --> 00:29:18,390
The child care fraud scheme was first exposed

823
00:29:18,390 --> 00:29:20,790
more than a decade ago between 2011 and

824
00:29:20,790 --> 00:29:21,490
2013.

825
00:29:21,870 --> 00:29:23,930
One state lawmaker who appeared as a witness

826
00:29:23,930 --> 00:29:25,730
today said that those who tried to initially

827
00:29:25,730 --> 00:29:28,370
report the fraud faced government retaliation.

828
00:29:28,850 --> 00:29:32,510
They revealed that retaliation now includes threats of

829
00:29:32,510 --> 00:29:34,730
being fired with cause, which means you do

830
00:29:34,730 --> 00:29:36,610
not get unemployment insurance in the state of

831
00:29:36,610 --> 00:29:40,250
Minnesota, being blacklisted from all state agencies.

832
00:29:40,810 --> 00:29:43,310
The Democrats witness a former DOJ official push

833
00:29:43,310 --> 00:29:45,930
back on the idea that fraudsters haven't faced

834
00:29:45,930 --> 00:29:49,170
repercussions, highlighting the consequences that some have faced

835
00:29:49,170 --> 00:29:49,710
so far.

836
00:29:49,710 --> 00:29:52,130
The department has charged over a dozen people

837
00:29:52,130 --> 00:29:54,990
for stealing $14 million from a program meant

838
00:29:54,990 --> 00:29:56,050
for children with autism.

839
00:29:56,410 --> 00:29:58,910
The state's governor, Tim Walz, has repeatedly defended

840
00:29:58,910 --> 00:30:00,830
his handling of the fraud crisis.

841
00:30:01,250 --> 00:30:02,990
But since the crisis has been exposed on

842
00:30:02,990 --> 00:30:05,550
the national scale, Walz has since dropped his

843
00:30:05,550 --> 00:30:07,870
reelection campaign for a third term.

844
00:30:08,310 --> 00:30:10,630
Some Republicans aim to expose that some of

845
00:30:10,630 --> 00:30:13,790
the stolen money was used to fund Democrat

846
00:30:13,790 --> 00:30:16,530
politicians, even the state's attorney general.

847
00:30:16,530 --> 00:30:18,830
Did money flow to Mr. Ellison's campaign a

848
00:30:18,830 --> 00:30:20,310
couple weeks later from some of the folks

849
00:30:20,310 --> 00:30:21,090
who were in that meeting?

850
00:30:21,450 --> 00:30:21,690
Sure did.

851
00:30:21,910 --> 00:30:22,330
How much?

852
00:30:22,430 --> 00:30:23,470
Do we know how much that was?

853
00:30:23,610 --> 00:30:24,630
I do not have that number.

854
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:28,250
So it wasn't just wasn't just overlooking the

855
00:30:28,250 --> 00:30:28,610
fraud.

856
00:30:29,110 --> 00:30:31,390
They were actively trying to make sure this

857
00:30:31,390 --> 00:30:32,670
program continued.

858
00:30:32,870 --> 00:30:35,790
And then they benefited from that politically with

859
00:30:35,790 --> 00:30:38,370
contributions to their campaign all in this same

860
00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:39,530
year, all in 2021.

861
00:30:40,370 --> 00:30:42,050
You know, it's who is that again?

862
00:30:42,150 --> 00:30:42,730
Who does that voice?

863
00:30:43,030 --> 00:30:43,370
That was Jordan.

864
00:30:43,950 --> 00:30:44,210
Yeah.

865
00:30:44,470 --> 00:30:45,870
I mean, he's got to calm down.

866
00:30:45,870 --> 00:30:48,450
I'd like the fact the facts of what

867
00:30:48,450 --> 00:30:52,910
he's saying, but no one listens to that.

868
00:30:53,050 --> 00:30:54,950
It doesn't make any difference what they did.

869
00:30:55,090 --> 00:30:57,110
Comer was the earlier guy who said something.

870
00:30:57,290 --> 00:30:59,430
These guys are do nothing Republicans.

871
00:30:59,670 --> 00:31:00,790
They make a big fuss.

872
00:31:01,230 --> 00:31:03,090
They get their clips on the air.

873
00:31:03,230 --> 00:31:04,410
Who gets arrested?

874
00:31:04,770 --> 00:31:05,590
But that's my point.

875
00:31:05,630 --> 00:31:06,530
It's old fashioned.

876
00:31:06,750 --> 00:31:08,270
Like, if you really want to do something,

877
00:31:08,570 --> 00:31:10,350
speak like a normal human being.

878
00:31:11,170 --> 00:31:13,810
Stop with the print preening and the and

879
00:31:13,810 --> 00:31:16,070
the clip clip moments.

880
00:31:19,490 --> 00:31:20,050
Yeah.

881
00:31:23,770 --> 00:31:27,870
And then in a perfect like, even if

882
00:31:27,870 --> 00:31:29,850
they spoke like normal human beings, they still

883
00:31:29,850 --> 00:31:30,630
wouldn't do anything.

884
00:31:30,990 --> 00:31:31,710
Well, that's true.

885
00:31:33,130 --> 00:31:33,610
Yes.

886
00:31:34,230 --> 00:31:35,850
Then it's all about the midterms.

887
00:31:35,850 --> 00:31:38,830
Then in the perfect, almost proof of the

888
00:31:38,830 --> 00:31:42,710
simulation, we get Dr. Oz, who is, you

889
00:31:42,710 --> 00:31:44,030
know, he's a good looking guy.

890
00:31:44,090 --> 00:31:45,430
He's not an ugly politician.

891
00:31:46,390 --> 00:31:48,730
He's now in the administration and he knows

892
00:31:48,730 --> 00:31:49,770
how to read a prompter.

893
00:31:50,030 --> 00:31:53,430
And like, wow, everything has become show business.

894
00:31:54,050 --> 00:31:57,490
At CMS and HHS, we're increasingly worried about

895
00:31:57,490 --> 00:32:00,670
the deep rot within Minnesota's Medicaid and social

896
00:32:00,670 --> 00:32:03,930
services, which are supposed to protect the most

897
00:32:03,930 --> 00:32:04,950
vulnerable Americans.

898
00:32:04,950 --> 00:32:07,290
The more we uncover, the more it becomes

899
00:32:07,290 --> 00:32:07,650
clear.

900
00:32:08,110 --> 00:32:09,710
It's much worse than we were led to

901
00:32:09,710 --> 00:32:11,770
believe by state government officials.

902
00:32:12,730 --> 00:32:15,730
We'd previously learned that illegal immigrants were still

903
00:32:15,730 --> 00:32:19,730
getting care within allegedly state only Medicaid programs

904
00:32:19,730 --> 00:32:22,930
that were actually using federal taxpayer funds.

905
00:32:23,210 --> 00:32:26,390
And because of that, we already withheld one

906
00:32:26,390 --> 00:32:30,450
point three billion dollars from California, Illinois and

907
00:32:30,450 --> 00:32:33,490
yes, Minnesota, which always seems to show up

908
00:32:33,490 --> 00:32:35,330
on the list of states with the worst

909
00:32:35,330 --> 00:32:36,710
fraud, waste and abuse.

910
00:32:37,750 --> 00:32:39,290
But this is only the tip of the

911
00:32:39,290 --> 00:32:40,390
iceberg for Minnesota.

912
00:32:41,310 --> 00:32:43,510
We have an unfortunate announcement for the Walsh

913
00:32:43,510 --> 00:32:44,070
administration.

914
00:32:44,550 --> 00:32:46,450
They have to admit they were warned.

915
00:32:47,090 --> 00:32:49,890
Last month, we instructed the Walsh administration to

916
00:32:49,890 --> 00:32:52,310
produce a corrective action plan by the end

917
00:32:52,310 --> 00:32:54,730
of the year, which we received late New

918
00:32:54,730 --> 00:32:55,210
Year's Eve.

919
00:32:55,590 --> 00:32:57,930
And he sounds a bit like Hegg, Seth.

920
00:32:58,090 --> 00:32:59,970
Now, you know, they're all they're all made

921
00:32:59,970 --> 00:33:00,910
for you.

922
00:33:01,750 --> 00:33:03,330
Milieu, yes, insufficient.

923
00:33:04,270 --> 00:33:05,830
We don't want to hear, for example, that

924
00:33:05,830 --> 00:33:08,130
your state law doesn't allow you to protect

925
00:33:08,130 --> 00:33:10,570
federal taxpayers from Somali fraud.

926
00:33:11,330 --> 00:33:12,830
And we want a sense of urgency.

927
00:33:12,830 --> 00:33:14,130
I keep waiting for him to say we'll

928
00:33:14,130 --> 00:33:15,510
be right back after this break.

929
00:33:15,790 --> 00:33:18,510
And fix this, as well as clear milestones

930
00:33:18,510 --> 00:33:21,270
to hold Minnesota accountable on progress.

931
00:33:22,010 --> 00:33:22,730
Enough is enough.

932
00:33:23,490 --> 00:33:24,850
I just notified Governor Walsh.

933
00:33:24,850 --> 00:33:28,270
We will begin auditing Medicaid receipts and defer

934
00:33:28,270 --> 00:33:31,250
paying on claims based on fraud, waste and

935
00:33:31,250 --> 00:33:34,450
abuse until we can verify what is legitimate.

936
00:33:34,830 --> 00:33:37,230
We're going to defer payments for the 14

937
00:33:37,230 --> 00:33:40,730
programs that the state itself identified as rife

938
00:33:40,730 --> 00:33:41,350
with fraud.

939
00:33:41,690 --> 00:33:44,150
That figure could be in the hundreds of

940
00:33:44,150 --> 00:33:45,250
millions of dollars.

941
00:33:45,390 --> 00:33:47,610
If the state cannot get a handle on

942
00:33:47,610 --> 00:33:50,530
this fraud, as we find more, we intend

943
00:33:50,530 --> 00:33:53,530
to withhold more payments moving forward until the

944
00:33:53,530 --> 00:33:54,830
state cleans up its act.

945
00:33:54,850 --> 00:33:57,110
Why don't they just withhold all funds?

946
00:33:57,930 --> 00:33:58,570
Can they do that?

947
00:33:58,630 --> 00:33:59,610
Because we're just not going to give.

948
00:33:59,890 --> 00:34:02,770
And by the way, why are my tax

949
00:34:02,770 --> 00:34:06,430
dollars going to Minnesota health care?

950
00:34:06,670 --> 00:34:08,110
I don't understand.

951
00:34:09,830 --> 00:34:11,650
That's that's to me is the scandal.

952
00:34:11,810 --> 00:34:12,830
Take care of your own people.

953
00:34:12,929 --> 00:34:14,389
We got our troubles here in Texas.

954
00:34:15,690 --> 00:34:17,489
And what an opportunity I've missed to open

955
00:34:17,489 --> 00:34:21,710
up my own facility for Tourette's sufferers.

956
00:34:22,170 --> 00:34:22,909
There you go.

957
00:34:23,070 --> 00:34:23,670
Made a bundle.

958
00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:24,510
Yeah.

959
00:34:24,909 --> 00:34:28,949
So the president is also very worried about

960
00:34:28,949 --> 00:34:29,989
the midterms.

961
00:34:30,489 --> 00:34:33,770
And he's I've watched the whole the whole

962
00:34:33,770 --> 00:34:36,310
speech he did for the GOP off.

963
00:34:36,610 --> 00:34:38,389
So the whole the funny one that we

964
00:34:38,389 --> 00:34:39,929
had all the jokes in it.

965
00:34:40,090 --> 00:34:40,270
The one.

966
00:34:40,469 --> 00:34:40,730
Yeah.

967
00:34:40,850 --> 00:34:42,429
But the thing is, if you want to

968
00:34:42,429 --> 00:34:44,830
clip anything from it, he starts with the

969
00:34:44,830 --> 00:34:45,690
serious topic.

970
00:34:45,770 --> 00:34:48,469
And then he just he's going on cracking

971
00:34:48,469 --> 00:34:49,110
jokes.

972
00:34:49,389 --> 00:34:50,870
You know, I want to say one thing

973
00:34:50,870 --> 00:34:52,830
about the Republicans in the midterms there.

974
00:34:52,830 --> 00:34:55,870
They they're not handling this right.

975
00:34:56,310 --> 00:34:58,530
They're handling as though they got it, that

976
00:34:58,530 --> 00:35:00,050
they're going to win the midterms.

977
00:35:00,310 --> 00:35:02,290
Well, they're moronic if they believe that.

978
00:35:02,650 --> 00:35:04,650
But I don't know whether they believe it

979
00:35:04,650 --> 00:35:04,950
or not.

980
00:35:04,970 --> 00:35:06,030
I didn't say they believe it.

981
00:35:06,090 --> 00:35:08,070
I'm just saying that's the way they're they're

982
00:35:08,070 --> 00:35:08,370
acting.

983
00:35:08,550 --> 00:35:09,590
They're pretending.

984
00:35:10,110 --> 00:35:12,270
I think pretending because they have to be.

985
00:35:12,370 --> 00:35:14,350
They can't they can't be this stupid.

986
00:35:14,610 --> 00:35:16,710
They're pretending they're going to wipe the floor

987
00:35:16,710 --> 00:35:18,870
with the Democrats in the midterms.

988
00:35:19,150 --> 00:35:20,190
And they're going to win.

989
00:35:20,190 --> 00:35:23,390
And they're so so they're exuding their the

990
00:35:23,390 --> 00:35:25,210
message that's going out is don't worry about

991
00:35:25,210 --> 00:35:25,730
voting.

992
00:35:25,890 --> 00:35:28,190
Yeah, we're going to win anyway, instead of

993
00:35:28,190 --> 00:35:30,230
instead of trying to pay what they should

994
00:35:30,230 --> 00:35:33,310
be doing is scaring the Republicans and making

995
00:35:33,310 --> 00:35:34,950
them panic that they're going to lose.

996
00:35:35,090 --> 00:35:36,830
And the rest of the next two years

997
00:35:36,830 --> 00:35:40,390
after 2027, 2028 are going to be just

998
00:35:40,390 --> 00:35:44,870
nothing but impeach, impeach, impeach, you know, and

999
00:35:44,870 --> 00:35:47,750
impede and just screw up the whole the

1000
00:35:47,750 --> 00:35:48,730
whole thing is over.

1001
00:35:48,730 --> 00:35:51,310
I mean, basically, the Democrats, it's like a,

1002
00:35:51,310 --> 00:35:53,390
you know, throwing a wrench in the works.

1003
00:35:53,690 --> 00:35:55,910
Well, this was and I'm sorry, but they

1004
00:35:55,910 --> 00:35:57,590
keep acting as though they're going to they

1005
00:35:57,590 --> 00:35:58,970
should be panicking.

1006
00:35:59,990 --> 00:36:02,430
Well, I think there's a probably a large

1007
00:36:02,430 --> 00:36:05,770
number of Republicans who have the let's just

1008
00:36:05,770 --> 00:36:07,450
sit it out for a couple more years

1009
00:36:07,450 --> 00:36:07,830
vibe.

1010
00:36:07,990 --> 00:36:10,370
I truly believe that like this just all

1011
00:36:10,370 --> 00:36:10,750
sucks.

1012
00:36:11,030 --> 00:36:11,990
Trump is unpredictable.

1013
00:36:12,030 --> 00:36:13,650
He's not playing the game, not playing the

1014
00:36:13,650 --> 00:36:15,130
way we're used to.

1015
00:36:15,710 --> 00:36:17,350
And so let's just sit him out.

1016
00:36:17,350 --> 00:36:19,310
The sit him out doesn't matter.

1017
00:36:20,110 --> 00:36:22,730
You know, well, you know, OK, so maybe

1018
00:36:22,730 --> 00:36:24,390
we got through four years of Biden.

1019
00:36:24,510 --> 00:36:26,270
We get through any of that.

1020
00:36:26,350 --> 00:36:27,870
It's not just wait it out.

1021
00:36:28,310 --> 00:36:30,610
But in fact, the president said exactly what

1022
00:36:30,610 --> 00:36:31,330
you just said.

1023
00:36:31,610 --> 00:36:33,670
You got to win the midterms because if

1024
00:36:33,670 --> 00:36:36,490
we don't win the midterms, it's just going

1025
00:36:36,490 --> 00:36:36,930
to be.

1026
00:36:38,090 --> 00:36:40,070
I mean, they'll find a reason to impeach

1027
00:36:40,070 --> 00:36:40,410
me.

1028
00:36:41,630 --> 00:36:42,830
I'll get impeached.

1029
00:36:43,270 --> 00:36:44,430
We don't impeach them.

1030
00:36:44,430 --> 00:36:44,910
You know why?

1031
00:36:44,910 --> 00:36:47,370
Because they're meaner than we are.

1032
00:36:47,590 --> 00:36:49,310
We should have impeached Joe Biden for 100

1033
00:36:49,310 --> 00:36:50,150
different things.

1034
00:36:51,750 --> 00:36:54,610
They are mean and smart.

1035
00:36:55,870 --> 00:36:59,470
But fortunately for you, they have horrible policy.

1036
00:37:00,510 --> 00:37:02,610
They can be smart as can be.

1037
00:37:02,950 --> 00:37:05,170
But when they want open borders, when they

1038
00:37:05,170 --> 00:37:07,110
want, as I said, men and women sports,

1039
00:37:07,230 --> 00:37:11,170
when they want transgender for everyone, bring your

1040
00:37:11,170 --> 00:37:12,930
kids in, we're going to change the sex

1041
00:37:12,930 --> 00:37:13,830
of your child.

1042
00:37:14,870 --> 00:37:16,830
He was in rare form, but it was

1043
00:37:16,830 --> 00:37:19,810
just too even the jokes shaggy dog for

1044
00:37:19,810 --> 00:37:22,270
five, six minutes before he got to the

1045
00:37:22,270 --> 00:37:22,670
punchline.

1046
00:37:22,770 --> 00:37:26,410
But he said one thing, and I agree

1047
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:28,950
on him with him, particularly since right now

1048
00:37:28,950 --> 00:37:31,770
they're in the House doing the important people's

1049
00:37:31,770 --> 00:37:35,230
work on voting on the health care extension

1050
00:37:35,230 --> 00:37:36,070
subsidies.

1051
00:37:36,550 --> 00:37:39,030
No idea how that's going to turn out.

1052
00:37:39,810 --> 00:37:42,950
But and he's oh, man, he does such

1053
00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:44,950
a poor job of explaining things.

1054
00:37:45,070 --> 00:37:48,330
He just his sound bites are the worst

1055
00:37:48,330 --> 00:37:50,030
because I know what I think I know

1056
00:37:50,030 --> 00:37:51,150
what he's trying to say.

1057
00:37:51,350 --> 00:37:52,750
But this is how it comes out.

1058
00:37:52,890 --> 00:37:55,110
I read a story about insurance companies making

1059
00:37:55,110 --> 00:37:56,710
a fortune, a fortune.

1060
00:37:57,430 --> 00:38:00,290
Their stocks were up 1700 percent.

1061
00:38:00,590 --> 00:38:02,470
Who invested recently in this stock?

1062
00:38:02,570 --> 00:38:03,330
That's up 17.

1063
00:38:03,890 --> 00:38:06,530
He's he's he's instead of just saying Nancy

1064
00:38:06,530 --> 00:38:09,250
Pelosi, which is what he's what he means

1065
00:38:09,250 --> 00:38:11,430
here, he doesn't say that doesn't say who

1066
00:38:11,430 --> 00:38:14,390
invested in these health care, who made all

1067
00:38:14,390 --> 00:38:14,850
that money?

1068
00:38:15,110 --> 00:38:17,270
Who invested recently in this stock?

1069
00:38:17,350 --> 00:38:18,130
That's up 17.

1070
00:38:18,850 --> 00:38:21,110
And that's because the money that they're getting

1071
00:38:21,110 --> 00:38:25,250
from Obamacare is massive and the government generally.

1072
00:38:25,510 --> 00:38:27,250
That means they're making a fortune.

1073
00:38:27,250 --> 00:38:29,410
I came out with a statement.

1074
00:38:29,970 --> 00:38:32,350
Let the money go not to the big

1075
00:38:32,350 --> 00:38:34,950
fat cats in the insurance companies that made

1076
00:38:34,950 --> 00:38:38,390
1700 percent over the last short period of

1077
00:38:38,390 --> 00:38:38,750
time.

1078
00:38:39,390 --> 00:38:42,010
Let the money go directly to the people

1079
00:38:42,010 --> 00:38:43,870
where they can buy their own health care.

1080
00:38:45,370 --> 00:38:50,340
And and I don't think I'm not sure

1081
00:38:50,340 --> 00:38:52,140
that I've ever said anything that was more

1082
00:38:52,140 --> 00:38:52,560
impactful.

1083
00:38:52,700 --> 00:38:53,760
You know, I say a lot of things

1084
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,860
and have a lot of good ideas.

1085
00:38:56,980 --> 00:38:59,680
And this was an idea that I mean,

1086
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:01,480
the whole world went crazy.

1087
00:39:01,620 --> 00:39:02,780
The whole country went crazy.

1088
00:39:02,820 --> 00:39:04,460
The world went crazy with envy.

1089
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,520
If you can somehow do that, Mr. Speaker,

1090
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,460
Tom, all of you, Steve, if you can

1091
00:39:10,460 --> 00:39:12,780
do that, you're going to have this is

1092
00:39:12,780 --> 00:39:13,760
going to be your issue.

1093
00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:16,900
The funny thing is that you don't have

1094
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:18,460
to wait for that to happen.

1095
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,040
I mean, it's been I've just been studying

1096
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,300
this since since we got to two and

1097
00:39:25,300 --> 00:39:26,200
a half years ago.

1098
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,180
I got on the was it the ministry

1099
00:39:29,180 --> 00:39:31,580
health health care ministries, whatever it's called.

1100
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,640
Tina's got crowd health.

1101
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:39,100
You know, these these crowdfunding initiatives are doing

1102
00:39:39,100 --> 00:39:39,580
so well.

1103
00:39:39,660 --> 00:39:41,920
They're giving the first three months free.

1104
00:39:42,140 --> 00:39:43,720
Like you don't have to you have to

1105
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:45,320
pay for the first three months and you

1106
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:46,500
can't do it in California.

1107
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:47,600
That's right.

1108
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:48,140
You can't.

1109
00:39:48,220 --> 00:39:49,840
There may be other states, but yeah, you

1110
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,500
can't do it in California because you get

1111
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:51,920
dinged.

1112
00:39:52,860 --> 00:39:54,140
Yeah, a thousand dollars.

1113
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:55,960
But even that's worth it.

1114
00:39:56,780 --> 00:39:59,760
Well, if you calculate it, but nobody they

1115
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:00,720
don't see it that way.

1116
00:40:00,940 --> 00:40:01,660
No, I understand.

1117
00:40:01,860 --> 00:40:02,020
Why?

1118
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,760
Why should they get dinged at all?

1119
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:04,760
No, they shouldn't.

1120
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:05,560
But that's a state.

1121
00:40:05,740 --> 00:40:06,240
That's a state.

1122
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:07,780
Who's putting up with that?

1123
00:40:08,380 --> 00:40:08,800
California.

1124
00:40:10,100 --> 00:40:12,660
No, well, the point is mail in ballots.

1125
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,100
It's not anybody in California that likes the

1126
00:40:15,100 --> 00:40:15,460
idea.

1127
00:40:15,460 --> 00:40:16,460
I understand what you say.

1128
00:40:16,460 --> 00:40:19,480
It's the corrupt election system in California, Washington

1129
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:20,120
and Oregon.

1130
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:21,680
They're all mail in ballots states.

1131
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,840
My point is, why doesn't the president bring

1132
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,760
a couple of these companies in to explain

1133
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,600
how it's already working?

1134
00:40:29,420 --> 00:40:33,780
And because really, we've saved, I don't know,

1135
00:40:33,860 --> 00:40:34,200
what is it?

1136
00:40:34,380 --> 00:40:37,580
Like $12,000 more probably.

1137
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,040
No, that would be great.

1138
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:39,360
Great.

1139
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,520
They don't do that.

1140
00:40:41,060 --> 00:40:44,400
I've always wondered, you know, if you remember,

1141
00:40:44,620 --> 00:40:45,440
you probably don't.

1142
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,020
Ross Perot ran for president.

1143
00:40:48,220 --> 00:40:50,000
Now, what we got here, you see, on

1144
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,620
my blackboard is here's the money coming in

1145
00:40:52,620 --> 00:40:53,780
and here's the money going out.

1146
00:40:54,820 --> 00:40:57,880
He would have these little charts, just like

1147
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,160
you tried to do there.

1148
00:40:59,220 --> 00:41:00,300
I did quite well.

1149
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,420
Yeah, not bad.

1150
00:41:03,980 --> 00:41:04,900
It's screechy.

1151
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,300
But he would show a little chart and

1152
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:09,700
it would explain, not just one or two,

1153
00:41:09,820 --> 00:41:12,640
but constantly show these little charts that were,

1154
00:41:14,220 --> 00:41:16,260
what do you call them when you have

1155
00:41:16,260 --> 00:41:18,760
an example that people can visualize?

1156
00:41:19,420 --> 00:41:20,360
A chart.

1157
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:22,780
Well, I know there's a word for it.

1158
00:41:22,780 --> 00:41:23,680
A Venn diagram.

1159
00:41:25,340 --> 00:41:28,260
No, it's an influential tool.

1160
00:41:30,260 --> 00:41:32,140
A meme, a cartoon.

1161
00:41:32,660 --> 00:41:33,600
I'm running out of ideas.

1162
00:41:34,220 --> 00:41:34,780
Stop.

1163
00:41:35,260 --> 00:41:37,320
And so he would show these little charts

1164
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,840
and diagrams and explain very carefully what they

1165
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:40,240
meant.

1166
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,640
And then you could look at him and

1167
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:43,400
you'd understand.

1168
00:41:43,820 --> 00:41:43,920
Yeah.

1169
00:41:44,180 --> 00:41:47,740
And nobody has done that since.

1170
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,300
And it's just beyond me.

1171
00:41:49,420 --> 00:41:50,180
Well, the reason why.

1172
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:51,880
I mean, Trump should know that he's been

1173
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,940
told, but if he was, he's going to

1174
00:41:53,940 --> 00:41:55,740
believe that God saved his life.

1175
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,920
It was when he was looking at one

1176
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,340
of the few charts he's ever used.

1177
00:42:00,720 --> 00:42:01,740
That's a good point.

1178
00:42:02,020 --> 00:42:03,120
He turned his head to point out the

1179
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,900
chart of showing the immigration chart that he

1180
00:42:05,900 --> 00:42:09,420
still uses it to this day, showing the

1181
00:42:09,420 --> 00:42:10,320
drop in immigration.

1182
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,440
He turns his head and he misses a

1183
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:12,720
bullet.

1184
00:42:13,260 --> 00:42:15,920
Well, maybe that was the sign to use

1185
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,380
these charts more.

1186
00:42:18,980 --> 00:42:19,920
It is quite baffling.

1187
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:20,260
Okay.

1188
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,320
So sir, by his grace, that's because he's

1189
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:23,040
in on it.

1190
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:23,640
I don't know.

1191
00:42:23,720 --> 00:42:26,640
I think this is just, he's in on

1192
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:26,760
it.

1193
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:27,400
Oh yeah, sure.

1194
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:28,280
I don't think so.

1195
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:28,940
He doesn't care.

1196
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:29,440
All right.

1197
00:42:29,540 --> 00:42:34,920
No, but what boggles my mind is the

1198
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,700
fact that you can already opt out of

1199
00:42:36,700 --> 00:42:40,320
the system today and it works.

1200
00:42:40,720 --> 00:42:41,820
It's fantastic.

1201
00:42:42,020 --> 00:42:43,420
I'm just blown away.

1202
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,620
And now if I could get a thousand

1203
00:42:45,620 --> 00:42:48,900
bucks or 500 or nothing, give me nothing.

1204
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:49,620
I'm fine.

1205
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,560
It cost me 500 bucks max per thing

1206
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:53,280
that happens.

1207
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,840
And you help out other people.

1208
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:57,720
And so you're still out a couple thousand

1209
00:42:57,720 --> 00:42:58,540
dollars a year.

1210
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,080
That's what insurance is supposed to do, by

1211
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:00,300
the way.

1212
00:43:00,300 --> 00:43:02,520
But it's the people's insurance, by the way.

1213
00:43:02,540 --> 00:43:04,500
Yeah, but that's what insurance is supposed to

1214
00:43:04,500 --> 00:43:04,600
be.

1215
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:05,280
Well, it's not.

1216
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:06,720
And if you look at...

1217
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:07,480
Well, there you go.

1218
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:08,440
Why is that?

1219
00:43:08,620 --> 00:43:10,120
Well, and so here's my next question.

1220
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,560
Why do drug companies not try to cure

1221
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:12,960
people?

1222
00:43:13,020 --> 00:43:14,380
They just want to keep them on drugs.

1223
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:15,980
The whole system's corrupt.

1224
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:17,700
Insurance is corrupt, and so are drugs.

1225
00:43:17,700 --> 00:43:20,280
But instead of going and fighting ICE, fight

1226
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:21,520
the system, people.

1227
00:43:21,820 --> 00:43:22,220
Gosh.

1228
00:43:23,420 --> 00:43:26,260
And doesn't Berkshire Hathaway, isn't their, maybe it's

1229
00:43:26,260 --> 00:43:27,820
no longer their main, but isn't their main

1230
00:43:27,820 --> 00:43:29,300
business reinsurance?

1231
00:43:29,460 --> 00:43:31,400
So insuring the insurance companies?

1232
00:43:32,420 --> 00:43:34,120
I don't think it's, I think it's just

1233
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:34,920
pure insurance.

1234
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:35,820
Okay.

1235
00:43:35,940 --> 00:43:39,100
So one share of Berkshire Hathaway went from

1236
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:41,940
like 50 bucks to 750,000 bucks.

1237
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,480
That should give you a clue about how

1238
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,400
well the insurance business works.

1239
00:43:47,540 --> 00:43:49,780
And by the way, I think a lot

1240
00:43:49,780 --> 00:43:52,260
of these insurers are tied back to Lloyd's

1241
00:43:52,260 --> 00:43:54,460
and Barkley's.

1242
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,460
You know, that's all theft from the North

1243
00:43:57,460 --> 00:43:59,120
Sea Nexus, as far as I'm concerned.

1244
00:43:59,660 --> 00:44:02,240
And of course, these are the companies that

1245
00:44:02,240 --> 00:44:04,360
kick back to election campaigns.

1246
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:06,960
I've, I, I need to look up some

1247
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,320
of those clips where, where politicians are saying,

1248
00:44:09,420 --> 00:44:10,920
well, there's just one thing you don't touch

1249
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:11,620
in Washington.

1250
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,380
You don't say anything about the insurance companies.

1251
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,640
And the same goes for- You need

1252
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,000
to get your funding cut off.

1253
00:44:19,100 --> 00:44:19,400
Yes.

1254
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:21,140
It's like pet insurance.

1255
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,980
I think Obama was the number one, in

1256
00:44:24,980 --> 00:44:29,520
all of history, the number one guy, president

1257
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,760
- Recipient of insurance related- Getting the

1258
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:33,880
most insurance money.

1259
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,920
Well, of course he did Obamacare, which was

1260
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,660
literally putting money in their pocket.

1261
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:38,520
Yeah.

1262
00:44:38,940 --> 00:44:39,180
Yeah.

1263
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,680
So I'm just saying, it's like, opt out

1264
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:43,820
of the system, people.

1265
00:44:44,300 --> 00:44:45,100
Do it already.

1266
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,620
But yes, the president should totally just, and

1267
00:44:48,620 --> 00:44:50,960
don't even claim your time.

1268
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,140
Just buy some time.

1269
00:44:52,720 --> 00:44:54,560
Buy some time out of your own pocket

1270
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:59,600
and do a 20 minute podcast on TV

1271
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,540
and get some charts.

1272
00:45:02,540 --> 00:45:04,220
You know, he could, I'm sure he could

1273
00:45:04,220 --> 00:45:04,540
do it.

1274
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:05,240
You're right.

1275
00:45:05,660 --> 00:45:06,180
He did that.

1276
00:45:06,260 --> 00:45:06,900
Oh, I love this.

1277
00:45:06,980 --> 00:45:07,980
This is a beautiful chart.

1278
00:45:08,100 --> 00:45:09,440
This chart saved my life.

1279
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,580
Well, save, save the midterms and do some

1280
00:45:12,580 --> 00:45:13,040
charts.

1281
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,040
You know, and then- They're going to

1282
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:17,880
have their asses handed to them because Schumer

1283
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:19,780
is outflanking me, even though Schumer is pulling

1284
00:45:19,780 --> 00:45:21,340
stunt after stunt like this.

1285
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,480
The latest thing with this stupid candlelight vigil,

1286
00:45:24,660 --> 00:45:25,500
which was pathetic.

1287
00:45:26,780 --> 00:45:28,460
But, but they gave these speeches.

1288
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:29,640
I do have a clip from it.

1289
00:45:29,720 --> 00:45:30,780
Oh, good, good, good, good.

1290
00:45:30,780 --> 00:45:32,920
This is Jeffreys talking about the cat.

1291
00:45:32,980 --> 00:45:34,160
Now talk about a liar.

1292
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,920
Jeffreys comes, first Schumer comes out and bitches

1293
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,940
and moans about Trump being a horrible guy.

1294
00:45:40,620 --> 00:45:44,420
And he's instigated January 6th, which is a

1295
00:45:44,420 --> 00:45:46,260
fraud if ever there was.

1296
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,860
And so now Jeffreys comes out and listen

1297
00:45:48,860 --> 00:45:53,720
to his discussion about how fantastic the Capitol

1298
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:54,720
Police were.

1299
00:45:54,940 --> 00:45:56,740
For more than five hours, they were forced

1300
00:45:56,740 --> 00:45:59,940
to engage in hand to hand combat.

1301
00:45:59,940 --> 00:46:07,220
Confronting thousands of bloodthirsty rioters who were unleashed

1302
00:46:07,220 --> 00:46:08,380
by Donald Trump.

1303
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,440
They were beaten with pipes, whipped, assaulted by

1304
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:17,160
bear spray and pummeled by Confederate flagpoles.

1305
00:46:17,620 --> 00:46:19,580
They were bloodied, but unbound.

1306
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,340
We owe these heroes an eternal debt of

1307
00:46:22,340 --> 00:46:26,740
gratitude and we'll never forget their service and

1308
00:46:26,740 --> 00:46:27,680
their sacrifice.

1309
00:46:28,240 --> 00:46:32,360
Had it not been for their bravery on

1310
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:33,360
that fateful day.

1311
00:46:33,500 --> 00:46:34,140
I would have been dead.

1312
00:46:34,260 --> 00:46:36,720
Many of us would not be alive right

1313
00:46:36,720 --> 00:46:37,080
now.

1314
00:46:37,220 --> 00:46:40,280
Wow, wow, of course.

1315
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,640
Well, and then in true Republican Party fashion,

1316
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,900
I know what we'll do.

1317
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:46,600
We'll get them.

1318
00:46:46,780 --> 00:46:48,080
We're going to change our website.

1319
00:46:48,540 --> 00:46:51,420
Today is the five year anniversary of a

1320
00:46:51,420 --> 00:46:53,860
deadly assault on the US Capitol by a

1321
00:46:53,860 --> 00:46:56,340
mob that was trying to overturn the results

1322
00:46:56,340 --> 00:46:58,120
of the 2020 presidential election.

1323
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,480
And there's a fresh attempt by the Trump

1324
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,440
administration of trying to alter the facts of

1325
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:04,640
what happened on that day.

1326
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,180
A new page on the White House website

1327
00:47:07,180 --> 00:47:09,860
mischaracterizes several of the events.

1328
00:47:10,300 --> 00:47:13,680
The site accuses Capitol Police of escalating tensions

1329
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:17,320
and also accuses the Democrats of staging the

1330
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:18,400
real insurrection.

1331
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,880
There was no official event to memorialize this

1332
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,100
day in 2021, when a mob stormed down

1333
00:47:25,100 --> 00:47:28,360
Pennsylvania Avenue and breached the Capitol as lawmakers

1334
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:29,020
fled.

1335
00:47:29,580 --> 00:47:32,440
Instead, a march took place today made up

1336
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,200
of dozens of people who were charged in

1337
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,520
those riots, but later pardoned by President Trump.

1338
00:47:39,580 --> 00:47:42,000
This was quite they had time.

1339
00:47:42,060 --> 00:47:43,760
These are all prepackaged, of course, because they

1340
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:44,660
were ready for it.

1341
00:47:44,660 --> 00:47:46,600
So it didn't matter what happened in Minnesota.

1342
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:47,720
And it doesn't matter.

1343
00:47:48,720 --> 00:47:50,520
What do we got in the calendar, Bob?

1344
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,600
We got the anniversary of January 6.

1345
00:47:53,720 --> 00:47:54,360
Oh, good.

1346
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:55,280
Let's do some packages.

1347
00:47:55,540 --> 00:47:56,680
Yeah, I got a package.

1348
00:47:57,340 --> 00:47:57,940
You know what?

1349
00:47:58,060 --> 00:47:59,780
I'm going to get Pelosi on.

1350
00:48:00,060 --> 00:48:01,840
Joining me now is House Speaker Emeritus Nancy

1351
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,700
Pelosi, Democrat from California.

1352
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:05,740
It's great to see you.

1353
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,380
I know this day is so difficult for

1354
00:48:08,380 --> 00:48:10,040
everybody who lives in this city.

1355
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,080
It was so difficult for everybody who lives

1356
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:13,880
in this city.

1357
00:48:14,060 --> 00:48:15,480
I thought of you a lot today.

1358
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:16,700
I was going to talk to you.

1359
00:48:16,820 --> 00:48:19,820
But just given everything that happened, everything we

1360
00:48:19,820 --> 00:48:20,600
all watched.

1361
00:48:20,980 --> 00:48:23,760
And now we have the current House speaker

1362
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,720
refusing to put it aside.

1363
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,020
That's Jen Psaki.

1364
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:28,100
Oh, yeah, yeah.

1365
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,480
She's going primetime.

1366
00:48:30,340 --> 00:48:34,200
And of course, you know, nobody watches that

1367
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:34,420
show.

1368
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,140
No, but the argument is over.

1369
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:37,980
Well, they were supposed to put up a

1370
00:48:37,980 --> 00:48:40,060
plaque and they didn't put up the plaque.

1371
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,440
Now this is a good.

1372
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:43,820
OK, yeah, this is very funny.

1373
00:48:43,820 --> 00:48:47,080
Current House speaker refusing to put a commemorative

1374
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:47,480
plaque.

1375
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,600
We have Donald Trump, who's, of course, president

1376
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,360
again, still lying about 2020.

1377
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:52,320
Lying, lying.

1378
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:54,100
How is this sitting with you five years

1379
00:48:54,100 --> 00:48:54,360
later?

1380
00:48:54,660 --> 00:48:56,940
Well, today is an emotional day for all

1381
00:48:56,940 --> 00:48:57,320
of us.

1382
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,280
Five years since the president of the United

1383
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,740
States incited an insurrection on the Capitol, on

1384
00:49:04,740 --> 00:49:06,440
the Congress, on the Constitution.

1385
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:09,240
And it's a notice bringing just they completely

1386
00:49:10,180 --> 00:49:11,960
changed history back to where they wanted.

1387
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:13,120
It was an insurrection.

1388
00:49:13,820 --> 00:49:16,440
On our ability to honor our oath of

1389
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,960
office to certify the election of the president

1390
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:23,920
by way of certifying the Electoral College, what

1391
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,360
was sad is that this president refused to

1392
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,840
send the National Guard saying, oh, I wanted

1393
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:30,860
it, but they didn't want to.

1394
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:31,900
It's amazing.

1395
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,760
It's just it's just it's just amazing.

1396
00:49:34,860 --> 00:49:35,280
It's mocking.

1397
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,380
Have you seen the White House meme clip

1398
00:49:37,380 --> 00:49:38,180
that they put out?

1399
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:38,620
No.

1400
00:49:39,140 --> 00:49:40,900
Where they clipped that little part there.

1401
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:42,680
Then they clipped the part from the movie.

1402
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,300
Her daughter, Nancy, says, yeah, I could have

1403
00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:47,160
sent the National Guard, but I never did.

1404
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:48,900
Yeah, Nancy, they didn't want it.

1405
00:49:49,240 --> 00:49:52,660
His own secretary of defense testified under oath

1406
00:49:52,660 --> 00:49:54,360
that that was not true.

1407
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:56,480
But he is not under oath.

1408
00:49:56,500 --> 00:49:59,340
So he just lies, lies, lies, lies, lies,

1409
00:49:59,340 --> 00:49:59,660
lies.

1410
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:02,000
But what's important is our democracy.

1411
00:50:02,420 --> 00:50:05,840
What happened then was horrible, was horrible.

1412
00:50:06,380 --> 00:50:09,240
Confederate fags under Lincoln's dome, the dome that

1413
00:50:09,240 --> 00:50:09,940
Lincoln built.

1414
00:50:09,940 --> 00:50:11,440
Hold on a second.

1415
00:50:13,060 --> 00:50:15,140
The dome that Lincoln built.

1416
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,660
I have a feeling that that lasted a

1417
00:50:17,660 --> 00:50:19,040
couple of presidencies.

1418
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,080
He didn't build the dome.

1419
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:22,700
OK.

1420
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,320
No, he built it himself.

1421
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:25,160
What?

1422
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:27,680
No, he Lincoln himself.

1423
00:50:27,860 --> 00:50:31,620
Actually, from scratch, he poured them with cement.

1424
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:32,140
He did.

1425
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:33,280
He put it up.

1426
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:34,540
He engineered it.

1427
00:50:34,580 --> 00:50:35,280
He's an engineer.

1428
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:36,740
He's a structural engineer.

1429
00:50:36,900 --> 00:50:38,240
Everybody knows what she does.

1430
00:50:38,240 --> 00:50:40,380
And then the blacks did it, too.

1431
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:41,260
The black slaves.

1432
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,560
And of course, funny enough, it was completed

1433
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,560
under Monroe, the predecessor to the Donro.

1434
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,340
Under Lincoln's dome, the dome that Lincoln built

1435
00:50:50,340 --> 00:50:52,380
while he was unifying.

1436
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,000
She just makes stuff up as she goes

1437
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:54,420
along.

1438
00:50:54,620 --> 00:50:55,200
Yeah, it's great.

1439
00:50:55,420 --> 00:50:56,120
Unity of our country.

1440
00:50:56,300 --> 00:50:57,640
Why don't they call it Lincoln's dome?

1441
00:50:58,320 --> 00:50:59,760
Together, our union together.

1442
00:51:00,740 --> 00:51:04,760
And this president, for some reason, decided that

1443
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,570
he was going to well, incite an insurrection,

1444
00:51:08,970 --> 00:51:11,630
lie about it because he couldn't face the

1445
00:51:11,630 --> 00:51:14,590
fact that he was not elected president of

1446
00:51:14,590 --> 00:51:15,730
the United States.

1447
00:51:16,350 --> 00:51:18,290
I mean, it's what you do.

1448
00:51:18,570 --> 00:51:19,710
But it just show everybody.

1449
00:51:19,950 --> 00:51:21,390
Every he's lying.

1450
00:51:21,490 --> 00:51:21,890
He's lying.

1451
00:51:21,970 --> 00:51:22,350
He's lying.

1452
00:51:22,430 --> 00:51:22,930
Let me lie.

1453
00:51:23,850 --> 00:51:24,710
It's it's great.

1454
00:51:24,750 --> 00:51:26,350
You know, it's just the way and sake

1455
00:51:26,350 --> 00:51:29,190
just sits there and she's nodding her head.

1456
00:51:29,310 --> 00:51:29,930
She lives in.

1457
00:51:29,950 --> 00:51:30,650
She's a you.

1458
00:51:30,750 --> 00:51:31,850
She's useless.

1459
00:51:31,990 --> 00:51:34,410
She's so she's going to understand how she

1460
00:51:34,410 --> 00:51:35,270
gets work.

1461
00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:36,050
She's it.

1462
00:51:36,110 --> 00:51:37,470
Well, what do you mean?

1463
00:51:37,650 --> 00:51:39,630
Of course, if you do, we could you

1464
00:51:39,630 --> 00:51:41,170
and I could have a show on Ms.

1465
00:51:41,250 --> 00:51:44,390
Now, Ms. Now, if we did that, just

1466
00:51:44,390 --> 00:51:44,850
do that.

1467
00:51:45,050 --> 00:51:45,970
Oh, yes.

1468
00:51:46,390 --> 00:51:47,410
It's so hard.

1469
00:51:47,430 --> 00:51:48,910
I mean, now that we live in D

1470
00:51:48,910 --> 00:51:51,070
.C., we really make more money.

1471
00:51:52,070 --> 00:51:54,510
Our rent will be higher, but we'd make

1472
00:51:54,510 --> 00:51:56,110
a lot more money if we did that.

1473
00:51:56,910 --> 00:51:59,870
But missing from all this the same day.

1474
00:51:59,870 --> 00:52:03,310
Did you see the announcement from Levitt on

1475
00:52:03,310 --> 00:52:06,990
Tulsi Gabbard's declassified declassification?

1476
00:52:07,030 --> 00:52:07,450
I did.

1477
00:52:07,870 --> 00:52:08,610
You have a clip.

1478
00:52:08,890 --> 00:52:11,950
Well, unfortunately, it's long, but she's a good

1479
00:52:11,950 --> 00:52:14,030
speaker and we can cut it off or

1480
00:52:14,030 --> 00:52:15,130
stop wherever we want.

1481
00:52:15,370 --> 00:52:17,710
Over the past few days, director of National

1482
00:52:17,710 --> 00:52:20,790
Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has unveiled shocking new evidence

1483
00:52:20,790 --> 00:52:23,950
that former President Barack Obama and top aides

1484
00:52:23,950 --> 00:52:28,010
in the Obama administration conspired to subvert President

1485
00:52:28,010 --> 00:52:32,490
Trump's 2016 election victory and undermine the Democratic

1486
00:52:32,490 --> 00:52:34,410
will of the American people.

1487
00:52:34,890 --> 00:52:37,670
While publicly pretending to engage in a peaceful

1488
00:52:37,670 --> 00:52:41,250
transfer of power in private, former President Obama

1489
00:52:41,250 --> 00:52:44,070
went to great and nefarious lengths to try

1490
00:52:44,070 --> 00:52:47,350
to sow discord among the public and sabotage

1491
00:52:47,350 --> 00:52:49,210
his successor, President Trump.

1492
00:52:49,770 --> 00:52:51,930
The new evidence released by the director of

1493
00:52:51,930 --> 00:52:53,890
National Intelligence, who is here with me today,

1494
00:52:54,270 --> 00:52:58,910
confirms that the Obama administration manufactured politicized intelligence,

1495
00:52:59,210 --> 00:53:02,150
which was later used as a justification for

1496
00:53:02,150 --> 00:53:05,230
baseless smears against President Trump in an effort

1497
00:53:05,230 --> 00:53:07,950
to try to delegitimize his victory before he

1498
00:53:07,950 --> 00:53:10,190
even took the oath of office.

1499
00:53:10,650 --> 00:53:12,990
The truth is that President Trump never had

1500
00:53:12,990 --> 00:53:15,690
anything to do with Russia, and the Russia

1501
00:53:15,690 --> 00:53:19,570
collusion hoax was a massive fraud perpetuated on

1502
00:53:19,570 --> 00:53:21,650
the American people from the very beginning.

1503
00:53:21,650 --> 00:53:24,090
And the worst part of this is Obama

1504
00:53:24,090 --> 00:53:25,130
knew that truth.

1505
00:53:25,430 --> 00:53:26,990
And so did all of the other corrupt

1506
00:53:26,990 --> 00:53:30,350
officials involved in this scam, including former CIA

1507
00:53:30,350 --> 00:53:33,790
director John Brennan, former director of National Intelligence

1508
00:53:33,790 --> 00:53:37,790
James Clapper, former FBI director James Comey, former

1509
00:53:37,790 --> 00:53:40,530
deputy director Andrew McCabe, and many others.

1510
00:53:40,710 --> 00:53:43,090
So I expect these people to be indicted.

1511
00:53:43,670 --> 00:53:44,850
Do you think that will happen?

1512
00:53:46,710 --> 00:53:47,870
That's a good one.

1513
00:53:47,930 --> 00:53:49,570
So they're just doing talk and they're not

1514
00:53:49,570 --> 00:53:50,470
going to do anything?

1515
00:53:50,470 --> 00:53:53,390
Well, Chris, we knew all this already.

1516
00:53:53,710 --> 00:53:56,550
Of course, we knew this.

1517
00:53:57,050 --> 00:53:58,150
We knew it for a long time.

1518
00:53:58,470 --> 00:53:59,870
You're a conspiracy theorist.

1519
00:54:00,290 --> 00:54:00,390
Okay.

1520
00:54:00,810 --> 00:54:03,470
But now that Gabbard's brought out the, you

1521
00:54:03,470 --> 00:54:05,190
know, she's declassified a bunch of stuff, which

1522
00:54:05,190 --> 00:54:06,630
indicates this to be true.

1523
00:54:07,370 --> 00:54:07,730
It doesn't.

1524
00:54:07,910 --> 00:54:09,230
Nobody picked it up.

1525
00:54:09,610 --> 00:54:11,570
You know, you're playing the one clip that

1526
00:54:11,570 --> 00:54:12,870
says it all.

1527
00:54:13,010 --> 00:54:14,750
And she's at the press conference.

1528
00:54:14,830 --> 00:54:17,250
She's talking to the mainstream media right in

1529
00:54:17,250 --> 00:54:17,610
front of her.

1530
00:54:17,610 --> 00:54:20,170
Nobody even wrote a story.

1531
00:54:20,290 --> 00:54:20,970
Where's the story?

1532
00:54:21,090 --> 00:54:22,270
You see a story in the front page

1533
00:54:22,270 --> 00:54:23,410
of the New York Times about this?

1534
00:54:23,870 --> 00:54:25,410
No, I still see.

1535
00:54:25,810 --> 00:54:28,410
I still see a car in the snow

1536
00:54:28,410 --> 00:54:29,390
on the quad screen.

1537
00:54:30,310 --> 00:54:32,430
You know, of course not, because she also

1538
00:54:32,430 --> 00:54:33,270
calls them out.

1539
00:54:33,310 --> 00:54:34,710
She calls out the New York Times, the

1540
00:54:34,710 --> 00:54:35,530
Wall Street Journal.

1541
00:54:35,890 --> 00:54:38,410
She calls out reporters.

1542
00:54:38,650 --> 00:54:40,730
And you can go look at the or

1543
00:54:40,730 --> 00:54:42,150
listen to the clip in the show.

1544
00:54:42,190 --> 00:54:43,650
By the way, I have a new feature

1545
00:54:43,650 --> 00:54:44,530
to the show notes.

1546
00:54:44,530 --> 00:54:48,230
I now am posting all the sources to

1547
00:54:48,230 --> 00:54:50,770
the clips in the show notes, which is

1548
00:54:50,770 --> 00:54:51,050
handy.

1549
00:54:51,130 --> 00:54:52,390
So you get the clips so you can

1550
00:54:52,390 --> 00:54:53,350
do your own podcast.

1551
00:54:54,110 --> 00:54:55,790
I see what you're doing over there.

1552
00:54:56,230 --> 00:54:58,090
And now you also get the sources.

1553
00:54:58,630 --> 00:55:00,670
But of course, those are prone to change

1554
00:55:00,670 --> 00:55:01,750
because you know how that works.

1555
00:55:01,930 --> 00:55:03,130
You may just go away.

1556
00:55:04,810 --> 00:55:08,710
But yeah, it's, will the Department of, are

1557
00:55:08,710 --> 00:55:10,610
there not thousands of sealed indictments?

1558
00:55:10,790 --> 00:55:12,970
I mean, will the Department of Justice not

1559
00:55:12,970 --> 00:55:13,850
do something?

1560
00:55:15,170 --> 00:55:17,530
I mean, it seems like you're going through

1561
00:55:17,530 --> 00:55:20,350
to just have Caroline leave it, just say

1562
00:55:20,350 --> 00:55:21,670
it, and then nothing happens.

1563
00:55:21,770 --> 00:55:23,810
That would surprise, it would surprise me.

1564
00:55:24,490 --> 00:55:25,870
It wouldn't surprise me.

1565
00:55:27,570 --> 00:55:29,610
Bloomberg, by the way, had a story this

1566
00:55:29,610 --> 00:55:34,030
morning that Tulsi Gabbard was not, as the

1567
00:55:34,030 --> 00:55:39,290
national security advisor, was not included in the

1568
00:55:39,290 --> 00:55:40,430
Venezuela op.

1569
00:55:41,010 --> 00:55:44,370
And the joke, according to Bloomberg, going around

1570
00:55:44,370 --> 00:55:47,630
D.C. is DNI stands for do not

1571
00:55:47,630 --> 00:55:48,170
invite.

1572
00:55:50,010 --> 00:55:52,010
And I'm like, that's kind of interesting.

1573
00:55:52,910 --> 00:55:55,390
Of course, you know, once a Democrat, you

1574
00:55:55,390 --> 00:55:57,190
can never really be trusted, I guess.

1575
00:55:59,510 --> 00:56:02,570
You know, the less people that know about

1576
00:56:02,570 --> 00:56:05,290
these things, the better, the better, and because

1577
00:56:05,290 --> 00:56:09,090
it's obvious that the Congress in particular, there

1578
00:56:09,090 --> 00:56:10,330
are a bunch of, there are a bunch

1579
00:56:10,330 --> 00:56:12,730
of, we have, that's the enemy within.

1580
00:56:12,890 --> 00:56:13,990
Let me just play this clip.

1581
00:56:14,070 --> 00:56:16,570
This is the, this is a very short

1582
00:56:16,570 --> 00:56:20,310
discussion of the War Powers Act, which is,

1583
00:56:20,430 --> 00:56:22,470
was passed since 1973.

1584
00:56:22,550 --> 00:56:24,890
It's been around for 50 years.

1585
00:56:25,550 --> 00:56:27,970
And it's what the president uses to do

1586
00:56:27,970 --> 00:56:29,650
this stuff, even though everyone says, oh, you

1587
00:56:29,650 --> 00:56:30,750
can't do this, you can't do that.

1588
00:56:30,790 --> 00:56:31,470
Yes, you can.

1589
00:56:31,530 --> 00:56:34,070
And here's the short explanation of the whole

1590
00:56:34,070 --> 00:56:34,510
thing.

1591
00:56:34,510 --> 00:56:37,070
War Powers Act states that notification should be

1592
00:56:37,070 --> 00:56:39,710
made to Congress within 48 hours following the

1593
00:56:39,710 --> 00:56:41,530
initiation of hostilities.

1594
00:56:42,210 --> 00:56:44,430
In addition, the military must leave the country

1595
00:56:44,430 --> 00:56:47,270
within 60 days unless Congress provides a declaration

1596
00:56:47,270 --> 00:56:47,970
of war.

1597
00:56:48,410 --> 00:56:51,030
According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, the military

1598
00:56:51,030 --> 00:56:52,590
has already left Venezuela.

1599
00:56:53,270 --> 00:56:55,570
Yeah, there you go.

1600
00:56:55,690 --> 00:56:56,670
It's within the law.

1601
00:56:56,770 --> 00:56:59,110
And they brief Congress after the fact.

1602
00:56:59,330 --> 00:57:01,790
It has to be within 48 hours, not

1603
00:57:01,790 --> 00:57:02,390
before.

1604
00:57:02,910 --> 00:57:04,890
They don't need congressional approval.

1605
00:57:05,050 --> 00:57:07,550
It's right in the War Powers Act that

1606
00:57:07,550 --> 00:57:08,630
Congress passed.

1607
00:57:08,890 --> 00:57:10,910
Well, this is all posturing.

1608
00:57:11,190 --> 00:57:14,450
Trump used an antiquated document, a little used

1609
00:57:14,450 --> 00:57:14,890
law.

1610
00:57:17,350 --> 00:57:19,070
It's used all the time.

1611
00:57:19,370 --> 00:57:20,910
It was used by Obama.

1612
00:57:21,110 --> 00:57:24,710
It was used by Clinton to bomb Bosnia.

1613
00:57:25,230 --> 00:57:28,790
It was used by Clinton to, I get,

1614
00:57:28,830 --> 00:57:29,850
no, it was, who was it?

1615
00:57:29,950 --> 00:57:31,470
Obama to bomb Libya.

1616
00:57:31,470 --> 00:57:33,750
It was used over and over again.

1617
00:57:33,910 --> 00:57:35,690
It was used to get Noriega.

1618
00:57:35,810 --> 00:57:38,770
I mean, it's not new, but yeah.

1619
00:57:38,850 --> 00:57:40,310
Oh, it's unconstitutional.

1620
00:57:40,590 --> 00:57:42,410
I didn't clip any, but I love seeing

1621
00:57:42,410 --> 00:57:48,290
clips of Obama and Biden talking about Venezuela.

1622
00:57:48,730 --> 00:57:49,970
You know, well, they put sanction.

1623
00:57:50,110 --> 00:57:50,830
Remember Guaido?

1624
00:57:51,030 --> 00:57:52,150
Remember that gambit?

1625
00:57:52,950 --> 00:57:55,530
They put in an Obama-like guy and

1626
00:57:55,530 --> 00:57:56,630
no one even looked at him.

1627
00:57:56,690 --> 00:57:57,790
No one came to the rallies.

1628
00:57:58,130 --> 00:57:58,870
He went to the- He was the

1629
00:57:58,870 --> 00:57:59,950
Venezuelan Obama.

1630
00:57:59,950 --> 00:58:01,330
Yeah, didn't he go to Congress?

1631
00:58:01,490 --> 00:58:03,450
They would, oh, yes, Guaido.

1632
00:58:03,690 --> 00:58:04,550
Oh, yes, Guaido.

1633
00:58:04,750 --> 00:58:05,330
He's the man.

1634
00:58:05,430 --> 00:58:06,170
He's going to do it.

1635
00:58:06,190 --> 00:58:08,530
Yeah, Guaido, they get whatever happened to him.

1636
00:58:08,610 --> 00:58:11,490
This CIA op, they just threw, by the

1637
00:58:11,490 --> 00:58:14,510
way, just on CIA ops for a second,

1638
00:58:15,530 --> 00:58:18,410
you know, J.D., Fat J.D., now

1639
00:58:18,410 --> 00:58:19,850
I have him in my, in my algo,

1640
00:58:20,070 --> 00:58:20,390
thanks.

1641
00:58:20,470 --> 00:58:21,670
Oh, you're getting the Fat J.D.'s? Yeah,

1642
00:58:21,670 --> 00:58:23,310
I'm getting the Fat J.D.'s. I'm even

1643
00:58:23,310 --> 00:58:24,790
getting- He's a pretty good dancer, that

1644
00:58:24,790 --> 00:58:24,890
guy.

1645
00:58:24,890 --> 00:58:26,770
I'm getting Fat J.D.'s in bikinis.

1646
00:58:26,950 --> 00:58:27,950
It's very disturbing.

1647
00:58:27,950 --> 00:58:30,290
My algos have crossed.

1648
00:58:32,050 --> 00:58:35,770
When he was an anti-Trumper, do you

1649
00:58:35,770 --> 00:58:37,530
know who he endorsed for president?

1650
00:58:39,070 --> 00:58:41,870
It was either Rand Paul or- No,

1651
00:58:41,870 --> 00:58:42,610
no, no.

1652
00:58:44,190 --> 00:58:45,650
Oh, Ted Cruz.

1653
00:58:45,790 --> 00:58:46,190
Nope.

1654
00:58:47,150 --> 00:58:47,650
No?

1655
00:58:47,810 --> 00:58:50,230
It was that dude from Utah, the CIA

1656
00:58:50,230 --> 00:58:50,790
guy.

1657
00:58:53,350 --> 00:58:53,790
Really?

1658
00:58:54,010 --> 00:58:54,490
Yes.

1659
00:58:55,050 --> 00:58:56,250
He endorsed him.

1660
00:58:57,870 --> 00:59:00,330
That makes me question Vance.

1661
00:59:01,470 --> 00:59:03,970
Well, yeah, well, a lot of people question

1662
00:59:03,970 --> 00:59:04,490
Vance.

1663
00:59:04,890 --> 00:59:05,550
Well, because he's fat.

1664
00:59:05,630 --> 00:59:08,330
I think he's also, he was on Jesse

1665
00:59:08,330 --> 00:59:09,610
Waters' show last night.

1666
00:59:10,710 --> 00:59:12,250
Spencer Cox, that's the games guy.

1667
00:59:12,450 --> 00:59:14,210
Yeah, Spencer Cox, I think.

1668
00:59:16,050 --> 00:59:18,350
And he's a smooth talker, I have to

1669
00:59:18,350 --> 00:59:19,730
say, I give him credit for that.

1670
00:59:19,970 --> 00:59:20,550
He's very smooth.

1671
00:59:20,870 --> 00:59:23,350
He's not a good tweeter, he tweeted some

1672
00:59:23,350 --> 00:59:23,610
stuff.

1673
00:59:23,730 --> 00:59:25,910
He's not a good tweeter, you can't be

1674
00:59:25,910 --> 00:59:26,230
president.

1675
00:59:28,330 --> 00:59:28,770
No.

1676
00:59:30,210 --> 00:59:31,950
He doesn't quite know what he's doing.

1677
00:59:32,050 --> 00:59:35,070
He should shut up about the Minnesota shooting

1678
00:59:35,070 --> 00:59:35,870
for Starbush.

1679
00:59:36,350 --> 00:59:37,870
He's been given that portfolio.

1680
00:59:38,570 --> 00:59:40,390
He was on all the quad screens this

1681
00:59:40,390 --> 00:59:40,630
morning.

1682
00:59:40,770 --> 00:59:42,670
I didn't clip it because it was too

1683
00:59:42,670 --> 00:59:43,370
close to the show.

1684
00:59:44,870 --> 00:59:46,690
But that's in his portfolio.

1685
00:59:46,950 --> 00:59:49,250
He doesn't get Venezuela, he doesn't get Greenland,

1686
00:59:49,610 --> 00:59:50,470
he gets Minnesota.

1687
00:59:51,090 --> 00:59:53,350
So I think he's kind of being sidelined

1688
00:59:53,350 --> 00:59:54,730
a little bit, it feels like.

1689
00:59:56,330 --> 00:59:58,050
I don't think he's getting sidelined, he's getting

1690
00:59:58,050 --> 01:00:00,150
more airtime than before.

1691
01:00:00,270 --> 01:00:02,370
He's just being, they just gave him, you're

1692
01:00:02,370 --> 01:00:02,490
right.

1693
01:00:02,510 --> 01:00:03,390
But for minor stuff.

1694
01:00:03,750 --> 01:00:05,790
For minor, yeah, it's like, who wants that

1695
01:00:05,790 --> 01:00:06,090
aside?

1696
01:00:06,150 --> 01:00:07,470
Go stand with Kristi Noem.

1697
01:00:08,130 --> 01:00:09,230
She's wearing a hat.

1698
01:00:10,630 --> 01:00:11,830
I can't see her eyes.

1699
01:00:11,970 --> 01:00:12,430
I don't know.

1700
01:00:13,210 --> 01:00:13,930
She's on a horse.

1701
01:00:14,830 --> 01:00:17,270
So I just love the fallout from Venezuela

1702
01:00:17,270 --> 01:00:18,810
and now Greenland.

1703
01:00:18,990 --> 01:00:20,550
And I got to play this clip because

1704
01:00:20,550 --> 01:00:21,910
I was watching a lot of the financial

1705
01:00:21,910 --> 01:00:22,370
stuff.

1706
01:00:23,310 --> 01:00:25,870
This is Squawk Box Europe.

1707
01:00:26,230 --> 01:00:29,590
Which, of course, is rife with City of

1708
01:00:29,590 --> 01:00:30,510
London operatives.

1709
01:00:30,830 --> 01:00:33,210
Listen to this Brit freak out.

1710
01:00:33,210 --> 01:00:36,650
What world do we live in where America

1711
01:00:36,650 --> 01:00:40,270
is potentially threatening or refusing to rule out

1712
01:00:40,270 --> 01:00:45,410
military action on Denmark, an ally, on an

1713
01:00:45,410 --> 01:00:47,970
area where they can actually put as many

1714
01:00:47,970 --> 01:00:49,670
troops as they want there anyway.

1715
01:00:49,970 --> 01:00:51,590
They could have as many deals to extract

1716
01:00:51,590 --> 01:00:53,910
resources they want anyway, almost certainly.

1717
01:00:54,350 --> 01:00:55,530
But they want to have military action.

1718
01:00:55,750 --> 01:00:57,830
But that is not even the most gobsmacking

1719
01:00:57,830 --> 01:00:58,470
of these headlines.

1720
01:00:58,770 --> 01:00:59,090
Gobsmacking!

1721
01:00:59,090 --> 01:01:05,070
But the fact that all pretense that this

1722
01:01:05,070 --> 01:01:09,970
extraction of Maduro was about narco-terrorism.

1723
01:01:10,050 --> 01:01:11,450
See, by the way, he's read in.

1724
01:01:11,550 --> 01:01:12,770
He knows it was an extraction.

1725
01:01:13,290 --> 01:01:14,710
He doesn't call it a capture.

1726
01:01:14,810 --> 01:01:15,990
Doesn't call it a kidnapping.

1727
01:01:16,150 --> 01:01:17,930
He calls it an extraction.

1728
01:01:18,410 --> 01:01:20,310
So this guy is clearly read in.

1729
01:01:20,310 --> 01:01:26,250
All pretense that this extraction of Maduro was

1730
01:01:26,250 --> 01:01:30,610
about narco-terrorism or bringing a drug kingpin

1731
01:01:30,610 --> 01:01:33,150
to justice is just completely out the window.

1732
01:01:33,510 --> 01:01:36,230
All pretense that there is a process which

1733
01:01:36,230 --> 01:01:39,870
the US administration wants to bring democracy to

1734
01:01:39,870 --> 01:01:41,390
Venezuela is out the window.

1735
01:01:41,690 --> 01:01:42,810
Whoever said we want to bring democracy?

1736
01:01:42,810 --> 01:01:44,030
Nobody said that.

1737
01:01:44,670 --> 01:01:46,090
That's old thinking, brother.

1738
01:01:46,570 --> 01:01:50,630
To just say Venezuela has hundreds of billions

1739
01:01:50,630 --> 01:01:52,390
of dollars of liabilities on a global basis,

1740
01:01:52,490 --> 01:01:53,670
some of them to US oil companies.

1741
01:01:53,850 --> 01:01:54,310
To China.

1742
01:01:54,530 --> 01:01:56,050
But to say we're just going to have

1743
01:01:56,050 --> 01:01:58,150
now this 50 million barrels of oil.

1744
01:01:58,530 --> 01:01:59,230
We're going to take them.

1745
01:01:59,270 --> 01:01:59,970
We're going to take three billion.

1746
01:02:00,070 --> 01:02:00,730
We're just going to take them.

1747
01:02:00,810 --> 01:02:02,450
And we'll work out the process.

1748
01:02:02,590 --> 01:02:04,150
It'll be fine for the Venezuelan people.

1749
01:02:04,890 --> 01:02:06,010
It's just gobsmacking.

1750
01:02:06,110 --> 01:02:07,210
This is just a shock show.

1751
01:02:07,410 --> 01:02:08,150
Gobsmacking is a shock show.

1752
01:02:08,510 --> 01:02:09,190
I mean, where do we live in?

1753
01:02:09,330 --> 01:02:13,150
Where the US, the paragon of the liberal

1754
01:02:13,150 --> 01:02:15,970
democratic order for the last 80 years, is

1755
01:02:15,970 --> 01:02:17,590
just now saying, yeah, we'll have that oil.

1756
01:02:18,010 --> 01:02:19,310
And for what justification?

1757
01:02:19,730 --> 01:02:21,010
Yeah, exactly.

1758
01:02:21,330 --> 01:02:24,010
The rules-based order is over.

1759
01:02:24,210 --> 01:02:26,090
There's a new cowboy in town.

1760
01:02:27,110 --> 01:02:28,570
Then you can see he's freaking out this

1761
01:02:28,570 --> 01:02:28,930
guy.

1762
01:02:30,410 --> 01:02:34,430
By the way, the oil baron, they're going

1763
01:02:34,430 --> 01:02:36,290
to the White House for the big meeting.

1764
01:02:36,730 --> 01:02:38,430
There's a big meeting with all of the

1765
01:02:38,430 --> 01:02:39,770
oil executives.

1766
01:02:40,290 --> 01:02:41,030
Oh, we'll get a report.

1767
01:02:41,230 --> 01:02:42,130
A real report.

1768
01:02:42,130 --> 01:02:46,110
And he's actually really been educating me a

1769
01:02:46,110 --> 01:02:47,970
lot on the US.

1770
01:02:48,090 --> 01:02:51,170
We can now basically make the strike price

1771
01:02:51,170 --> 01:02:51,750
for oil.

1772
01:02:51,890 --> 01:02:53,950
We could say, OK, it's $45 if we

1773
01:02:53,950 --> 01:02:54,410
wanted to.

1774
01:02:55,330 --> 01:02:57,250
And we could sell it whatever price we

1775
01:02:57,250 --> 01:02:57,630
want.

1776
01:02:58,310 --> 01:03:02,150
There's all kinds of very interesting angles to

1777
01:03:02,150 --> 01:03:04,330
this taking of the oil.

1778
01:03:05,310 --> 01:03:07,630
And he gave me a book to read,

1779
01:03:07,750 --> 01:03:09,430
which I've been devouring.

1780
01:03:09,430 --> 01:03:12,190
It's called The World for Sale, Money, Power,

1781
01:03:12,330 --> 01:03:15,130
and the Traders who Barter the Earth's Resources.

1782
01:03:15,630 --> 01:03:17,110
And it's the commodity traders.

1783
01:03:17,330 --> 01:03:18,650
And you never hear about these.

1784
01:03:19,370 --> 01:03:24,150
Well, you've heard probably about Glencore, Gunvor, Trafigura,

1785
01:03:24,570 --> 01:03:24,850
Vital.

1786
01:03:26,370 --> 01:03:28,970
These aren't really names that you hear all

1787
01:03:28,970 --> 01:03:29,310
the time.

1788
01:03:29,330 --> 01:03:32,850
But these are the guys who literally ship

1789
01:03:32,850 --> 01:03:33,390
the oil.

1790
01:03:33,910 --> 01:03:35,070
They'll buy the oil.

1791
01:03:35,190 --> 01:03:36,410
They get it from one country.

1792
01:03:36,710 --> 01:03:38,250
They put it on a lot of these

1793
01:03:38,250 --> 01:03:39,090
shadow ships.

1794
01:03:39,430 --> 01:03:41,090
They ship it across the country.

1795
01:03:41,390 --> 01:03:43,070
They might trade it for grain.

1796
01:03:43,330 --> 01:03:45,010
You know, it's not even money sometimes.

1797
01:03:45,210 --> 01:03:47,270
They trade it for either a different kind

1798
01:03:47,270 --> 01:03:48,770
of oil or a different commodity.

1799
01:03:49,450 --> 01:03:53,010
There's also all kinds of metals in the

1800
01:03:53,010 --> 01:03:53,730
same ship.

1801
01:03:54,790 --> 01:03:57,930
It's amazing how this really all works, which

1802
01:03:57,930 --> 01:04:01,710
you just never— Well, one of the top

1803
01:04:01,710 --> 01:04:05,570
people in this business is a guy named

1804
01:04:05,570 --> 01:04:06,450
Louis Dreyfus.

1805
01:04:07,470 --> 01:04:08,770
Where have I heard that name before?

1806
01:04:09,630 --> 01:04:10,570
Good name.

1807
01:04:10,790 --> 01:04:12,970
Yeah, Julia Louis Dreyfus is the heir to

1808
01:04:12,970 --> 01:04:13,690
that fortune.

1809
01:04:14,350 --> 01:04:16,110
Then he's a commodity trader.

1810
01:04:16,990 --> 01:04:19,950
Well, I don't know if Louis is.

1811
01:04:20,130 --> 01:04:21,590
I don't know if Louis is still alive.

1812
01:04:21,750 --> 01:04:23,750
But yeah, she's more than a Democrat.

1813
01:04:23,970 --> 01:04:24,650
She's tarred.

1814
01:04:26,010 --> 01:04:29,190
Another thing that came up in conversation is,

1815
01:04:29,410 --> 01:04:37,950
you know, Venezuela has anti-aircraft batteries that

1816
01:04:37,950 --> 01:04:39,910
are supplied by Russia.

1817
01:04:41,030 --> 01:04:43,130
You got to wonder, did they malfunction?

1818
01:04:44,210 --> 01:04:45,830
Did they just not work?

1819
01:04:46,130 --> 01:04:47,910
Or was Russia in on the deal?

1820
01:04:48,030 --> 01:04:48,890
I think so.

1821
01:04:48,950 --> 01:04:50,550
I think Russia was in on the deal.

1822
01:04:51,070 --> 01:04:53,050
I think China probably knew about it.

1823
01:04:53,610 --> 01:04:55,730
Maybe not the timing, because they had their

1824
01:04:55,730 --> 01:04:57,950
boys there doing the meeting.

1825
01:04:57,950 --> 01:04:58,690
Huge.

1826
01:05:00,050 --> 01:05:05,290
China has loaned Venezuela $90 billion so far.

1827
01:05:05,550 --> 01:05:05,750
Yeah.

1828
01:05:05,850 --> 01:05:06,910
And it could be more than that.

1829
01:05:07,130 --> 01:05:08,470
And they're going to be on the hook

1830
01:05:08,470 --> 01:05:08,950
for that.

1831
01:05:09,130 --> 01:05:09,390
Yes.

1832
01:05:12,010 --> 01:05:14,150
But exactly what I said is like, hey,

1833
01:05:14,330 --> 01:05:17,190
they've got to do something for the Venezuelan

1834
01:05:17,190 --> 01:05:18,050
people soon.

1835
01:05:18,310 --> 01:05:19,630
And I think that's this, you know, the

1836
01:05:19,630 --> 01:05:22,910
30 or— It's not clear how much it

1837
01:05:22,910 --> 01:05:23,010
is.

1838
01:05:23,010 --> 01:05:24,290
30 or 50 million barrels.

1839
01:05:24,370 --> 01:05:25,090
That's $2 billion.

1840
01:05:25,090 --> 01:05:25,690
Okay.

1841
01:05:25,830 --> 01:05:28,270
So that's going to keep the food in

1842
01:05:28,270 --> 01:05:30,810
the supermarkets for a little bit longer, because

1843
01:05:30,810 --> 01:05:32,630
you can just change their system.

1844
01:05:35,090 --> 01:05:37,930
But I think it's fascinating.

1845
01:05:38,230 --> 01:05:40,730
This isn't just one thing that changed here.

1846
01:05:41,010 --> 01:05:42,970
This is a lot of things that changed.

1847
01:05:44,710 --> 01:05:47,590
Here's— so everyone's— we'll kind of go from

1848
01:05:47,590 --> 01:05:50,670
Venezuela to— Well, let's go leave Venezuela there.

1849
01:05:50,810 --> 01:05:51,570
You want to do Venezuela?

1850
01:05:51,830 --> 01:05:52,010
Okay.

1851
01:05:52,150 --> 01:05:52,830
Yeah, let's do Venezuela.

1852
01:05:55,090 --> 01:05:56,590
What do I have on my list here?

1853
01:05:56,770 --> 01:05:58,390
I see you have three steps.

1854
01:05:59,830 --> 01:06:00,470
Oh, yeah.

1855
01:06:00,470 --> 01:06:03,030
This is kind of interesting, because this just

1856
01:06:03,030 --> 01:06:03,550
came out.

1857
01:06:03,650 --> 01:06:09,890
I think this is Rubio, who would be

1858
01:06:09,890 --> 01:06:10,970
a great dictator.

1859
01:06:12,590 --> 01:06:13,410
He's funny.

1860
01:06:13,590 --> 01:06:15,190
He says funny things.

1861
01:06:15,270 --> 01:06:16,630
He has little— Oh, and by the way,

1862
01:06:16,750 --> 01:06:19,290
somebody in the— one of the people from

1863
01:06:19,290 --> 01:06:23,370
the— I think the— that works in the

1864
01:06:23,370 --> 01:06:25,290
White House that of all the people that

1865
01:06:25,290 --> 01:06:28,170
are on the— in the White House, Rubio

1866
01:06:28,170 --> 01:06:29,250
is the funniest.

1867
01:06:29,890 --> 01:06:31,330
Well, you hear him say stuff.

1868
01:06:31,490 --> 01:06:33,650
He's— He's funnier than Trump, they say.

1869
01:06:33,670 --> 01:06:34,770
He has quips.

1870
01:06:35,250 --> 01:06:38,390
He has little snide quips that just slash

1871
01:06:38,390 --> 01:06:38,810
away.

1872
01:06:39,150 --> 01:06:40,270
And I should get— I should get a

1873
01:06:40,270 --> 01:06:41,030
supercut together.

1874
01:06:41,370 --> 01:06:44,670
We had to find something that has— yeah.

1875
01:06:45,110 --> 01:06:47,970
Before we played this— Well, remember, he's an

1876
01:06:47,970 --> 01:06:49,350
entertainer, after all, so.

1877
01:06:49,470 --> 01:06:50,790
Well, he was, and he's the one who

1878
01:06:50,790 --> 01:06:52,330
came up with the small hands joke.

1879
01:06:52,410 --> 01:06:53,190
Yes, it was good.

1880
01:06:53,190 --> 01:06:55,370
He was— when he started doing kind of

1881
01:06:55,370 --> 01:06:56,750
a stand-up bit when he was running

1882
01:06:56,750 --> 01:07:01,410
for president in 2016, 2015, he went into

1883
01:07:01,410 --> 01:07:04,190
some stand-up material that was top-notch.

1884
01:07:04,310 --> 01:07:04,530
I remember.

1885
01:07:04,650 --> 01:07:06,350
Do we have that clip, by the way?

1886
01:07:06,430 --> 01:07:08,310
Do we have— I don't know if we

1887
01:07:08,310 --> 01:07:10,190
do and how you'd find it, but he

1888
01:07:10,190 --> 01:07:11,310
did top-notch material.

1889
01:07:11,530 --> 01:07:14,130
And then he was condemned by the non—

1890
01:07:14,130 --> 01:07:17,910
never Trump or Republicans for being too glib.

1891
01:07:18,310 --> 01:07:19,710
And he just shut it down.

1892
01:07:19,770 --> 01:07:20,750
He shut it down.

1893
01:07:20,890 --> 01:07:22,570
But obviously, he had the chops.

1894
01:07:23,290 --> 01:07:23,770
Yes.

1895
01:07:23,890 --> 01:07:25,390
So he probably is the funniest guy.

1896
01:07:25,470 --> 01:07:25,850
Let me see.

1897
01:07:25,950 --> 01:07:26,370
Hands.

1898
01:07:26,670 --> 01:07:28,130
Do you have the little hands?

1899
01:07:28,590 --> 01:07:29,310
Little hands.

1900
01:07:29,730 --> 01:07:30,030
No.

1901
01:07:30,290 --> 01:07:31,410
No, I don't have any of that.

1902
01:07:31,430 --> 01:07:31,750
I don't know.

1903
01:07:31,810 --> 01:07:33,810
Well, here's— let's start with the Maduro hate.

1904
01:07:33,950 --> 01:07:36,510
This is a supercut from the various talk

1905
01:07:36,510 --> 01:07:41,250
shows on MSNB— MizNow and CNN and all

1906
01:07:41,250 --> 01:07:43,030
the rest of these guys going off on

1907
01:07:43,030 --> 01:07:43,450
Trump.

1908
01:07:43,830 --> 01:07:49,610
This was an illegal, unconstitutional regime change effort.

1909
01:07:49,610 --> 01:07:52,610
This is about taking over and running another

1910
01:07:52,610 --> 01:07:53,170
country.

1911
01:07:53,270 --> 01:07:53,850
This is illegal.

1912
01:07:54,230 --> 01:07:55,410
It's unjustified.

1913
01:07:55,630 --> 01:07:57,590
Clearly, this is wildly illegal.

1914
01:07:57,630 --> 01:07:59,490
This is a president who has been operating

1915
01:07:59,490 --> 01:08:02,870
illegally since he was sworn into office, stealing

1916
01:08:02,870 --> 01:08:04,110
from the American people.

1917
01:08:04,270 --> 01:08:06,190
This is the worst form of gun vote

1918
01:08:06,190 --> 01:08:09,470
diplomacy that proceeds to create a lot of

1919
01:08:09,470 --> 01:08:10,590
problems for the United States.

1920
01:08:10,670 --> 01:08:13,110
The reality is that, you know, to fund

1921
01:08:13,110 --> 01:08:15,370
these operations, to fund nation-building, they need

1922
01:08:15,370 --> 01:08:17,109
the approval of Congress, right?

1923
01:08:17,109 --> 01:08:18,130
And so they're going to have to come

1924
01:08:18,130 --> 01:08:19,910
to us when it comes to funding all

1925
01:08:19,910 --> 01:08:22,050
these things, or do more illegal things and

1926
01:08:22,050 --> 01:08:23,910
move money around illegally like they have in

1927
01:08:23,910 --> 01:08:24,310
the past.

1928
01:08:24,550 --> 01:08:27,069
They care about the president running this country,

1929
01:08:27,170 --> 01:08:30,149
not trying to have some dominance in the

1930
01:08:30,149 --> 01:08:30,630
hemisphere.

1931
01:08:34,069 --> 01:08:35,569
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1932
01:08:36,210 --> 01:08:38,010
So this is what I thought was interesting,

1933
01:08:38,069 --> 01:08:40,950
because one of the things that keeps coming

1934
01:08:40,950 --> 01:08:43,149
up in the conversation is, oh, Trump's got

1935
01:08:43,149 --> 01:08:43,890
no plans.

1936
01:08:43,910 --> 01:08:44,990
He doesn't know what he's doing.

1937
01:08:44,990 --> 01:08:46,870
He did this, and he grabbed the guy,

1938
01:08:46,950 --> 01:08:48,229
and now they don't know what to do.

1939
01:08:48,529 --> 01:08:49,109
Yeah, right.

1940
01:08:49,830 --> 01:08:53,149
So here is the, this is the Venezuela

1941
01:08:53,149 --> 01:08:53,990
three steps.

1942
01:08:54,490 --> 01:08:57,790
And congressional Republicans agreed with the Trump administration

1943
01:08:57,790 --> 01:09:00,210
that the removal of Maduro was not about

1944
01:09:00,210 --> 01:09:01,090
regime change.

1945
01:09:01,250 --> 01:09:03,069
Step one is the stabilization of the country.

1946
01:09:03,189 --> 01:09:04,609
We don't want it descending into chaos.

1947
01:09:04,930 --> 01:09:06,770
The second phase will be a phase that

1948
01:09:06,770 --> 01:09:09,290
we call recovery, and that is ensuring that

1949
01:09:09,290 --> 01:09:11,750
American, Western, and other companies have access to

1950
01:09:11,750 --> 01:09:13,350
the Venezuela market in a way that's fair.

1951
01:09:13,350 --> 01:09:16,350
The opposition forces can be amnestied and released,

1952
01:09:16,550 --> 01:09:18,170
and from prisons are brought back to the

1953
01:09:18,170 --> 01:09:20,430
country and begin to rebuild civil society.

1954
01:09:20,850 --> 01:09:22,069
And then the third phase, of course, will

1955
01:09:22,069 --> 01:09:22,990
be one of transition.

1956
01:09:23,189 --> 01:09:24,550
It is not a regime change.

1957
01:09:24,830 --> 01:09:25,810
I want to emphasize that.

1958
01:09:26,350 --> 01:09:28,609
It is a change of the actions of

1959
01:09:28,609 --> 01:09:29,090
the regime.

1960
01:09:32,430 --> 01:09:33,970
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1961
01:09:34,050 --> 01:09:35,649
There's a lot more to it.

1962
01:09:37,050 --> 01:09:37,890
Let me see.

1963
01:09:38,010 --> 01:09:40,689
I have a BBC, let me see.

1964
01:09:42,229 --> 01:09:45,430
Well, no, I have three clips, all British

1965
01:09:45,430 --> 01:09:46,350
related, of course.

1966
01:09:46,470 --> 01:09:47,189
Here's Reuters.

1967
01:09:47,390 --> 01:09:49,810
This is about the ghost ships, the ghost

1968
01:09:49,810 --> 01:09:52,430
fleet, which is a lot of these guys

1969
01:09:52,430 --> 01:09:53,670
that are in this book I'm reading.

1970
01:09:53,790 --> 01:09:57,210
The US has seized two Venezuelan linked oil

1971
01:09:57,210 --> 01:09:58,490
tankers in the Atlantic.

1972
01:09:59,390 --> 01:10:02,110
Notably, one of the tankers bearing a Russian

1973
01:10:02,110 --> 01:10:05,110
flag was being shadowed by a Russian submarine.

1974
01:10:06,130 --> 01:10:08,990
American forces had been pursuing the marinera for

1975
01:10:08,990 --> 01:10:10,110
more than two weeks.

1976
01:10:10,610 --> 01:10:13,750
The ship was reportedly empty, but US officials

1977
01:10:13,750 --> 01:10:16,790
are saying it's been used to move Venezuelan

1978
01:10:16,790 --> 01:10:17,110
crude.

1979
01:10:17,950 --> 01:10:20,770
This comes just days after US forces captured

1980
01:10:20,770 --> 01:10:24,930
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and as Trump announced

1981
01:10:24,930 --> 01:10:27,550
a deal to bring up to 50 million

1982
01:10:27,550 --> 01:10:29,750
barrels of the crude into the US.

1983
01:10:30,130 --> 01:10:31,110
Just a thought.

1984
01:10:31,890 --> 01:10:35,450
Let's say, because Russia has been selling their

1985
01:10:35,450 --> 01:10:39,310
crude cheap, cheap to China, whoever needs it.

1986
01:10:39,310 --> 01:10:40,650
Just undercutting the price.

1987
01:10:41,070 --> 01:10:41,550
And India.

1988
01:10:42,050 --> 01:10:44,850
So what if Trump says, you know, I'm

1989
01:10:44,850 --> 01:10:46,250
going to peg this, I'm going to sell

1990
01:10:46,250 --> 01:10:46,970
this at 35.

1991
01:10:47,990 --> 01:10:51,010
Russia, because oil is, you know, it's, what's

1992
01:10:51,010 --> 01:10:51,530
the term?

1993
01:10:52,410 --> 01:10:53,990
You know, it's the same everywhere.

1994
01:10:54,210 --> 01:10:56,010
It's not the same oil, but, you know,

1995
01:10:56,050 --> 01:10:57,530
the price are the price.

1996
01:10:57,650 --> 01:11:00,150
So then Russia will have to lower their

1997
01:11:00,150 --> 01:11:00,510
price.

1998
01:11:00,550 --> 01:11:01,850
It'll put pressure on them.

1999
01:11:02,830 --> 01:11:04,790
And maybe this would be a good tactic

2000
01:11:04,790 --> 01:11:07,570
to use, like, hey, come on, Vladimir, let's

2001
01:11:07,570 --> 01:11:08,570
just figure this thing out.

2002
01:11:08,630 --> 01:11:10,130
Do a demilitarized zone.

2003
01:11:10,270 --> 01:11:11,210
Let's just end that stuff.

2004
01:11:11,430 --> 01:11:13,130
And then we'll screw Europe together.

2005
01:11:13,750 --> 01:11:16,190
Because Europe, the only way they can survive

2006
01:11:16,190 --> 01:11:17,650
is with Russian oil.

2007
01:11:17,810 --> 01:11:18,430
That's it.

2008
01:11:18,550 --> 01:11:20,830
I mean, yeah, they can use our LNG,

2009
01:11:21,550 --> 01:11:24,330
but Europe is dead without Russian energy.

2010
01:11:24,790 --> 01:11:26,050
I just don't see where else it's going

2011
01:11:26,050 --> 01:11:26,590
to come from.

2012
01:11:27,610 --> 01:11:28,490
Yeah, they got nothing.

2013
01:11:28,750 --> 01:11:31,090
I think that could be part of the

2014
01:11:31,090 --> 01:11:31,390
ploy.

2015
01:11:31,530 --> 01:11:32,910
It's like, yeah, I'm going to sell this

2016
01:11:32,910 --> 01:11:33,490
really cheap.

2017
01:11:34,450 --> 01:11:35,130
Something's up.

2018
01:11:35,550 --> 01:11:35,990
Yes.

2019
01:11:35,990 --> 01:11:39,230
Here's national security reporter Idris Ali.

2020
01:11:40,030 --> 01:11:44,210
Anytime you have a superpower taking over something

2021
01:11:44,210 --> 01:11:46,810
that belongs to another superpower, in this case,

2022
01:11:46,870 --> 01:11:49,310
the United States and Russia, it does risk

2023
01:11:49,310 --> 01:11:51,230
sort of tensions faring.

2024
01:11:51,330 --> 01:11:54,610
It does risk, you know, a diplomatic demarche.

2025
01:11:54,850 --> 01:11:57,090
The Russian transportation ministry put out a statement

2026
01:11:57,090 --> 01:11:58,250
saying this is unacceptable.

2027
01:11:58,590 --> 01:12:02,490
We request and really demand, you know, our

2028
01:12:02,490 --> 01:12:05,470
citizens from the ship to be returned to

2029
01:12:05,470 --> 01:12:05,710
us.

2030
01:12:05,710 --> 01:12:07,230
But beyond that, I think we're trying to

2031
01:12:07,230 --> 01:12:08,690
figure out what happens next, right?

2032
01:12:08,850 --> 01:12:11,230
Do the Russians say, OK, this was a

2033
01:12:11,230 --> 01:12:13,070
vessel that was under our flag, but it

2034
01:12:13,070 --> 01:12:15,550
really wasn't something that was that belonged to

2035
01:12:15,550 --> 01:12:16,070
us previously.

2036
01:12:16,070 --> 01:12:17,190
So we're going to let this go.

2037
01:12:17,290 --> 01:12:19,230
Or do they have some sort of response

2038
01:12:19,230 --> 01:12:21,210
where they go after some vessels that is

2039
01:12:21,210 --> 01:12:22,170
important to the United States?

2040
01:12:22,710 --> 01:12:24,010
The U.S. Coast Guard is in possession

2041
01:12:24,010 --> 01:12:24,510
of the vessel.

2042
01:12:24,770 --> 01:12:26,550
It does appear to be heading in the

2043
01:12:26,550 --> 01:12:28,830
direction of British waters, but we don't know

2044
01:12:28,830 --> 01:12:30,310
what the final destination is going to be.

2045
01:12:30,770 --> 01:12:31,910
OK, so I don't know what that means.

2046
01:12:32,010 --> 01:12:32,490
Here's the BB.

2047
01:12:32,630 --> 01:12:33,370
BB was a tug.

2048
01:12:33,370 --> 01:12:35,890
And the Russians would, you know, the Russians,

2049
01:12:36,050 --> 01:12:37,250
I think, are a little more concerned about

2050
01:12:37,250 --> 01:12:40,690
the 300 billion stolen from them in hard

2051
01:12:40,690 --> 01:12:41,450
cash.

2052
01:12:41,650 --> 01:12:42,490
You think?

2053
01:12:42,950 --> 01:12:45,010
By the EU, as opposed to some old

2054
01:12:45,010 --> 01:12:45,410
beat up.

2055
01:12:45,450 --> 01:12:46,650
I've seen pictures of this.

2056
01:12:46,750 --> 01:12:47,810
This thing is barely.

2057
01:12:48,610 --> 01:12:51,170
If it makes it without sinking, I'd be

2058
01:12:51,170 --> 01:12:51,650
shocked.

2059
01:12:51,830 --> 01:12:53,510
And just because you paint a Russian flag

2060
01:12:53,510 --> 01:12:55,910
on it doesn't mean it belongs to Russia.

2061
01:12:56,710 --> 01:12:59,190
You know, you fly, you sail under a

2062
01:12:59,190 --> 01:12:59,650
flag.

2063
01:12:59,710 --> 01:13:00,590
That's registration.

2064
01:13:00,730 --> 01:13:02,190
Doesn't mean that Russia owns it.

2065
01:13:02,190 --> 01:13:04,590
Here's the BBC version.

2066
01:13:04,850 --> 01:13:07,450
The United States has seized two oil tankers

2067
01:13:07,450 --> 01:13:08,710
with connections to Venezuela.

2068
01:13:09,170 --> 01:13:11,010
One that the U.S. had been pursuing

2069
01:13:11,010 --> 01:13:14,210
for weeks since intercepting it off the Venezuelan

2070
01:13:14,210 --> 01:13:17,010
coast was boarded in the North Atlantic between

2071
01:13:17,010 --> 01:13:18,250
Iceland and Britain.

2072
01:13:19,070 --> 01:13:21,010
During the chase, the ship, which is reported

2073
01:13:21,010 --> 01:13:23,650
to be empty of cargo, changed its name

2074
01:13:23,650 --> 01:13:25,650
and adopted a Russian flag.

2075
01:13:26,430 --> 01:13:29,030
Before the tanker was seized, Russian naval support,

2076
01:13:29,150 --> 01:13:31,670
including a submarine, had been on its way

2077
01:13:31,670 --> 01:13:32,690
to escort it.

2078
01:13:33,230 --> 01:13:35,750
The second vessel, which was carrying oil and

2079
01:13:35,750 --> 01:13:38,590
sailing under a Cameroonian flag, was seized in

2080
01:13:38,590 --> 01:13:39,250
the Caribbean.

2081
01:13:39,710 --> 01:13:42,250
It's now being escorted to a U.S.

2082
01:13:42,350 --> 01:13:42,650
port.

2083
01:13:43,230 --> 01:13:46,470
A former Russian deputy foreign minister, Andrei Fedorov,

2084
01:13:46,630 --> 01:13:48,990
told the BBC Moscow would take the U

2085
01:13:48,990 --> 01:13:51,010
.S. action very seriously.

2086
01:13:51,750 --> 01:13:54,550
For Russia, it's a very important thing because

2087
01:13:54,550 --> 01:13:58,130
if there will be attack from U.S.,

2088
01:13:58,130 --> 01:14:00,350
it will be considered as attack on Russia,

2089
01:14:00,750 --> 01:14:04,230
and it could lead to very critical or

2090
01:14:04,230 --> 01:14:08,030
maybe even crisis situation in relations between Russia

2091
01:14:08,030 --> 01:14:11,310
and U.S. Dream on, Brit.

2092
01:14:11,910 --> 01:14:14,510
No, they're all playing a part.

2093
01:14:15,210 --> 01:14:17,790
I think this is a game much bigger

2094
01:14:17,790 --> 01:14:18,770
than they understand.

2095
01:14:19,690 --> 01:14:20,770
It's much bigger.

2096
01:14:21,430 --> 01:14:23,270
Well, to throw a wrench in the works,

2097
01:14:23,550 --> 01:14:27,630
I have this not reported clip from NTD.

2098
01:14:28,530 --> 01:14:30,870
That I don't understand how this fits into

2099
01:14:30,870 --> 01:14:32,970
the scheme of things, but it's not nobody's

2100
01:14:32,970 --> 01:14:33,790
talking much about.

2101
01:14:33,930 --> 01:14:35,790
This is my WTF clip for the day.

2102
01:14:36,010 --> 01:14:37,250
WTF oil deal.

2103
01:14:37,750 --> 01:14:40,010
President Trump announcing a historic oil deal with

2104
01:14:40,010 --> 01:14:40,450
Venezuela.

2105
01:14:40,850 --> 01:14:43,450
Under its terms, Venezuela will purchase only American

2106
01:14:43,450 --> 01:14:45,230
products with the money made from the U

2107
01:14:45,230 --> 01:14:47,470
.S. selling Venezuela's sanctioned oil.

2108
01:14:47,710 --> 01:14:49,850
This coming as the U.S. apprehends two

2109
01:14:49,850 --> 01:14:51,930
more sanctioned oil tankers in the Atlantic.

2110
01:14:52,610 --> 01:14:55,570
NTD's Washington correspondent brings us more from the.

2111
01:14:55,590 --> 01:14:57,230
I haven't heard this story at all.

2112
01:14:57,230 --> 01:14:59,590
What a great what a great idea.

2113
01:15:00,270 --> 01:15:02,410
It's like we're not going to give you

2114
01:15:02,410 --> 01:15:02,770
the money.

2115
01:15:02,890 --> 01:15:04,190
We're just going to send you some goods

2116
01:15:04,190 --> 01:15:04,710
in return.

2117
01:15:04,850 --> 01:15:05,990
This is a great idea.

2118
01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:08,930
All eyes are still on Venezuela as the

2119
01:15:08,930 --> 01:15:11,130
White House today confirms the seizure of two

2120
01:15:11,130 --> 01:15:12,770
more sanctioned oil tankers.

2121
01:15:13,070 --> 01:15:14,170
One of them, the Sofia.

2122
01:15:14,730 --> 01:15:18,070
This is a stateless, sanctioned dark fleet motor

2123
01:15:18,070 --> 01:15:18,610
tanker.

2124
01:15:18,990 --> 01:15:21,730
This vessel was operating in international waters and

2125
01:15:21,730 --> 01:15:24,330
conducting illicit activities in the Caribbean Sea.

2126
01:15:24,330 --> 01:15:26,750
And the other, Bella One, the British military

2127
01:15:26,750 --> 01:15:29,050
says, was part of a Russian-Iranian axis

2128
01:15:29,050 --> 01:15:30,210
of sanctions evasion.

2129
01:15:30,430 --> 01:15:32,050
The vessel this morning was seized in the

2130
01:15:32,050 --> 01:15:32,570
North Atlantic.

2131
01:15:32,630 --> 01:15:35,510
This was a Venezuelan shadow fleet vessel that

2132
01:15:35,510 --> 01:15:37,030
has transported sanctioned oil.

2133
01:15:37,150 --> 01:15:39,650
The vessel had a judicial seizure order and

2134
01:15:39,650 --> 01:15:40,070
the crew.

2135
01:15:40,330 --> 01:15:41,750
So that means the crew is now subject

2136
01:15:41,750 --> 01:15:44,750
to prosecution for any applicable violation of federal

2137
01:15:44,750 --> 01:15:45,090
law.

2138
01:15:45,250 --> 01:15:47,490
This comes as President Trump announced Tuesday night

2139
01:15:47,490 --> 01:15:49,870
that the interim authorities in Venezuela will be

2140
01:15:49,870 --> 01:15:52,830
turning over 30 to 50 million barrels of

2141
01:15:52,830 --> 01:15:55,190
sanctioned oil to the United States, where it

2142
01:15:55,190 --> 01:15:56,790
will be sold at market price.

2143
01:15:57,010 --> 01:15:59,130
The White House saying the Trump administration, led

2144
01:15:59,130 --> 01:16:01,270
by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, is in

2145
01:16:01,270 --> 01:16:03,890
close correspondence with interim authorities in Venezuela.

2146
01:16:04,170 --> 01:16:06,210
The interim authorities have agreed to release that

2147
01:16:06,210 --> 01:16:07,770
oil to the United States, so it will

2148
01:16:07,770 --> 01:16:10,350
be arriving here at home very soon.

2149
01:16:10,690 --> 01:16:12,990
The United States government has already begun marketing

2150
01:16:12,990 --> 01:16:14,170
Venezuelan crude oil.

2151
01:16:14,290 --> 01:16:16,710
Levitt says the U.S. is selectively rolling

2152
01:16:16,710 --> 01:16:19,470
back sanctions to enable the transport and sale

2153
01:16:19,470 --> 01:16:22,290
of Venezuelan crude oil to global markets.

2154
01:16:22,530 --> 01:16:24,330
They are not generating any revenue from their

2155
01:16:24,330 --> 01:16:25,070
oil right now.

2156
01:16:25,410 --> 01:16:27,270
They can't move it unless we allow it

2157
01:16:27,270 --> 01:16:29,110
to move because we have sanctions, because we're

2158
01:16:29,110 --> 01:16:30,470
enforcing those sanctions.

2159
01:16:30,670 --> 01:16:31,690
This is tremendous leverage.

2160
01:16:31,970 --> 01:16:33,790
We are exercising it in a positive way.

2161
01:16:34,690 --> 01:16:37,210
And we're going to refine it, though, first,

2162
01:16:37,250 --> 01:16:37,690
I presume.

2163
01:16:37,850 --> 01:16:40,510
I mean, who else does anyone else really

2164
01:16:40,510 --> 01:16:40,810
need?

2165
01:16:41,050 --> 01:16:43,290
Well, yeah, Venezuela has some refining capabilities.

2166
01:16:43,290 --> 01:16:44,510
But we have it.

2167
01:16:44,570 --> 01:16:45,610
We have the refineries.

2168
01:16:45,610 --> 01:16:48,090
Louisiana, Texas is great.

2169
01:16:48,270 --> 01:16:49,430
Right down in that area.

2170
01:16:49,750 --> 01:16:50,790
Yeah, it's good for us.

2171
01:16:51,090 --> 01:16:51,270
Yeah.

2172
01:16:51,530 --> 01:16:52,010
Go, Texas.

2173
01:16:52,050 --> 01:16:53,370
Yeah, it keeps these guys busy.

2174
01:16:53,790 --> 01:16:54,550
Now, here's part two.

2175
01:16:54,930 --> 01:16:57,750
Proceeds from Venezuelan crude oil sales will first

2176
01:16:57,750 --> 01:16:59,230
settle in U.S.-controlled accounts.

2177
01:16:59,370 --> 01:17:02,470
And then those funds will be dispersed for

2178
01:17:02,470 --> 01:17:04,510
the benefit of the American people and the

2179
01:17:04,510 --> 01:17:05,350
Venezuelan people.

2180
01:17:05,510 --> 01:17:07,010
We're going to market that crude.

2181
01:17:07,310 --> 01:17:09,290
We're going to allow that crude to be

2182
01:17:09,290 --> 01:17:11,010
sold so that revenue can be generated.

2183
01:17:11,310 --> 01:17:13,010
But then we're going to control the flow

2184
01:17:13,010 --> 01:17:15,390
of that revenue to make sure it's going

2185
01:17:15,390 --> 01:17:17,090
for productive reasons in Venezuela.

2186
01:17:17,310 --> 01:17:20,110
Meanwhile, as the effects of former Venezuelan dictator

2187
01:17:20,110 --> 01:17:22,670
Nicolas Maduro's capture are felt around the world,

2188
01:17:23,110 --> 01:17:25,610
President Trump warning other Western countries that his

2189
01:17:25,610 --> 01:17:28,370
administration won't allow America's neighbors to be used

2190
01:17:28,370 --> 01:17:30,190
as proxies for U.S. adversaries.

2191
01:17:30,310 --> 01:17:34,670
We need Greenland from a national security situation.

2192
01:17:35,010 --> 01:17:36,110
It's so strategic.

2193
01:17:36,330 --> 01:17:36,790
It's great.

2194
01:17:37,150 --> 01:17:40,810
Greenland is covered with Russian and Chinese ships

2195
01:17:40,810 --> 01:17:41,670
all over the place.

2196
01:17:41,670 --> 01:17:45,450
We need Greenland from the standpoint of national

2197
01:17:45,450 --> 01:17:46,070
security.

2198
01:17:46,270 --> 01:17:48,450
President Trump says Russia and China have, quote,

2199
01:17:48,630 --> 01:17:50,690
zero fear of NATO without the U.S.

2200
01:17:50,910 --> 01:17:52,770
and that the only nation China and Russia

2201
01:17:52,770 --> 01:17:54,990
fear and respect is the America that he's

2202
01:17:54,990 --> 01:17:55,410
rebuilding.

2203
01:17:55,730 --> 01:17:57,270
The White House confirms the U.S. is

2204
01:17:57,270 --> 01:17:59,370
talking about what a potential purchase of Greenland

2205
01:17:59,370 --> 01:18:00,130
would look like.

2206
01:18:00,230 --> 01:18:03,810
More control over the Arctic region and ensuring

2207
01:18:03,810 --> 01:18:07,870
that China and Russia and our adversaries cannot

2208
01:18:07,870 --> 01:18:10,590
continue their aggression in this very important and

2209
01:18:10,590 --> 01:18:11,390
strategic region.

2210
01:18:11,390 --> 01:18:13,250
Levitt says all options are on the table,

2211
01:18:13,410 --> 01:18:15,370
with the first option always diplomacy.

2212
01:18:15,650 --> 01:18:17,950
Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he plans

2213
01:18:17,950 --> 01:18:20,010
to meet his Danish counterparts next week to

2214
01:18:20,010 --> 01:18:22,010
talk about the U.S.'s interest in Greenland.

2215
01:18:22,310 --> 01:18:24,330
Reporting from the White House, Mario Tsu, NTD

2216
01:18:24,330 --> 01:18:24,730
News.

2217
01:18:24,990 --> 01:18:28,690
I think that there's disinformation that the president

2218
01:18:28,690 --> 01:18:32,590
is spreading with this because it's not every

2219
01:18:32,590 --> 01:18:36,410
single report mentions the national security part of

2220
01:18:36,410 --> 01:18:36,610
it.

2221
01:18:37,250 --> 01:18:38,510
But then always, oh, minerals.

2222
01:18:38,750 --> 01:18:39,510
They got oil.

2223
01:18:39,590 --> 01:18:40,370
They got minerals.

2224
01:18:40,370 --> 01:18:42,050
There's gold in them hills.

2225
01:18:42,150 --> 01:18:43,730
I tell you, it's all great stuff.

2226
01:18:44,010 --> 01:18:46,310
No one's going to drill for minerals in

2227
01:18:46,310 --> 01:18:46,710
Iceland.

2228
01:18:47,010 --> 01:18:49,030
You're not going to drill for oil in

2229
01:18:49,030 --> 01:18:49,450
Iceland.

2230
01:18:49,890 --> 01:18:50,850
No, they're not.

2231
01:18:50,890 --> 01:18:51,650
It's cold.

2232
01:18:51,890 --> 01:18:52,370
There's ice.

2233
01:18:53,010 --> 01:18:53,770
Oil's frozen.

2234
01:18:53,970 --> 01:18:54,710
Greenland, I'm sorry.

2235
01:18:54,710 --> 01:18:56,450
You can't pump out something that's frozen.

2236
01:18:56,610 --> 01:18:56,970
Greenland.

2237
01:18:57,050 --> 01:18:57,970
I'm sorry, I meant said Iceland.

2238
01:18:58,110 --> 01:18:58,510
I meant Greenland.

2239
01:18:58,610 --> 01:18:59,310
You said Iceland, yeah.

2240
01:18:59,490 --> 01:19:01,350
But no one's going to do that.

2241
01:19:01,790 --> 01:19:02,830
But that's what they keep saying.

2242
01:19:03,850 --> 01:19:06,990
As you've pointed out many times, rare earth

2243
01:19:06,990 --> 01:19:09,190
minerals, it's not that you can get them

2244
01:19:09,190 --> 01:19:09,590
anywhere.

2245
01:19:09,590 --> 01:19:10,610
Almost anywhere.

2246
01:19:10,990 --> 01:19:11,950
It's the processing.

2247
01:19:12,450 --> 01:19:13,990
That's the processing is the problem.

2248
01:19:14,150 --> 01:19:14,770
That's the key.

2249
01:19:14,930 --> 01:19:17,750
But every report ends with it or has

2250
01:19:17,750 --> 01:19:18,550
it as a feature.

2251
01:19:18,710 --> 01:19:20,510
You listen to CNBC again.

2252
01:19:20,670 --> 01:19:21,870
We need Greenland.

2253
01:19:22,350 --> 01:19:25,270
President Donald Trump is fixated on making Greenland

2254
01:19:25,270 --> 01:19:26,870
a part of the United States.

2255
01:19:27,310 --> 01:19:28,890
And there are three key reasons why.

2256
01:19:29,390 --> 01:19:31,430
Trump says his interest in the huge and

2257
01:19:31,430 --> 01:19:34,670
sparsely populated Danish territory is essential for national

2258
01:19:34,670 --> 01:19:35,190
security.

2259
01:19:35,790 --> 01:19:37,390
The White House has even raised the prospect

2260
01:19:37,390 --> 01:19:38,370
of military action.

2261
01:19:38,370 --> 01:19:40,650
But there are some other reasons why Greenland

2262
01:19:40,650 --> 01:19:42,430
finds itself in the U.S. sites.

2263
01:19:43,230 --> 01:19:45,770
First, location, location, location.

2264
01:19:46,210 --> 01:19:49,030
Greenland sits between Russia and the U.S.,

2265
01:19:49,030 --> 01:19:51,670
separating the Arctic Ocean and the North Atlantic

2266
01:19:51,670 --> 01:19:52,050
Ocean.

2267
01:19:52,810 --> 01:19:54,270
Second, shipping routes.

2268
01:19:54,490 --> 01:19:56,530
The largely frozen island is close to new

2269
01:19:56,530 --> 01:19:59,530
shipping routes as the climate crisis melts Arctic

2270
01:19:59,530 --> 01:20:02,810
ice, creating opportunities to upend global trade.

2271
01:20:03,150 --> 01:20:05,710
And third, despite Trump's recent dismissal of this

2272
01:20:05,710 --> 01:20:07,590
being a primary driver, minerals.

2273
01:20:07,930 --> 01:20:10,350
Greenland is widely known for its wide range

2274
01:20:10,350 --> 01:20:12,770
of raw materials, which play an integral role

2275
01:20:12,770 --> 01:20:15,750
in things like EVs, smartphones and loads of

2276
01:20:15,750 --> 01:20:16,550
other tech products.

2277
01:20:17,070 --> 01:20:20,630
Despite Trump's posturing, European leaders have been unequivocal

2278
01:20:20,630 --> 01:20:23,690
in their support of both Denmark and Greenland.

2279
01:20:24,150 --> 01:20:26,290
So minerals, oh yeah, minerals, minerals.

2280
01:20:26,450 --> 01:20:28,910
It's about one thing and one thing only.

2281
01:20:29,630 --> 01:20:32,270
It's called the G.I.U.K. gap.

2282
01:20:32,950 --> 01:20:35,650
The Greenland, Iceland, U.K. gap.

2283
01:20:35,650 --> 01:20:41,710
Which falls under surveillance by NATO currently because

2284
01:20:41,710 --> 01:20:44,810
of the NATO connection with Denmark and Greenland

2285
01:20:44,810 --> 01:20:45,650
being a part of that.

2286
01:20:46,670 --> 01:20:49,670
So we don't trust NATO anymore.

2287
01:20:49,790 --> 01:20:51,930
NATO is falling apart.

2288
01:20:52,070 --> 01:20:53,510
Now, I don't think Trump wants to blow

2289
01:20:53,510 --> 01:20:56,770
NATO up because he still wants to sell

2290
01:20:56,770 --> 01:20:57,870
a lot of gear to him.

2291
01:21:00,150 --> 01:21:02,630
A lot, a lot, a lot of gear.

2292
01:21:03,210 --> 01:21:06,790
But he does want to police that G

2293
01:21:06,790 --> 01:21:08,090
.I.U.K. gap.

2294
01:21:08,250 --> 01:21:09,750
And the only way you can do it,

2295
01:21:10,010 --> 01:21:11,070
well, there's a couple of ways you can

2296
01:21:11,070 --> 01:21:13,830
do it, but you need to, you know,

2297
01:21:13,890 --> 01:21:15,630
either own Greenland.

2298
01:21:15,830 --> 01:21:18,810
So you have your 200 mile economic zone,

2299
01:21:19,270 --> 01:21:21,050
which would cover it, and then you can

2300
01:21:21,050 --> 01:21:22,610
actually patrol it.

2301
01:21:23,250 --> 01:21:25,530
Now, there's other cases where you can do

2302
01:21:25,530 --> 01:21:27,970
sonar monitoring, but that's not really what we

2303
01:21:27,970 --> 01:21:28,150
want.

2304
01:21:28,210 --> 01:21:29,890
We want to do the same thing China's

2305
01:21:29,890 --> 01:21:31,950
doing in the China, in the China Sea

2306
01:21:31,950 --> 01:21:33,990
and around the disputed islands.

2307
01:21:34,290 --> 01:21:36,910
We want to be in control there so

2308
01:21:36,910 --> 01:21:39,290
that you can't have the Brits.

2309
01:21:39,610 --> 01:21:42,170
They literally have Russian submarines showing up off

2310
01:21:42,170 --> 01:21:42,630
their shore.

2311
01:21:42,730 --> 01:21:43,950
How do you think they got there?

2312
01:21:44,350 --> 01:21:45,890
Duh, through the gap.

2313
01:21:46,230 --> 01:21:49,230
And then why are we building 10 icebreakers

2314
01:21:49,230 --> 01:21:53,910
or six icebreakers in Pennsylvania that we bought

2315
01:21:53,910 --> 01:21:56,570
all the know-how and everything from Finland?

2316
01:21:57,050 --> 01:21:58,870
Because we're going to crush through all that

2317
01:21:58,870 --> 01:21:59,110
ice.

2318
01:21:59,110 --> 01:22:00,870
We're going to make this the most fantastic

2319
01:22:00,870 --> 01:22:02,950
shipping route ever, and we're going to control

2320
01:22:02,950 --> 01:22:03,210
it.

2321
01:22:04,290 --> 01:22:05,770
And that's, if you look at the globe,

2322
01:22:06,250 --> 01:22:10,550
if you believe in the globe, that's part

2323
01:22:10,550 --> 01:22:11,670
of our hemisphere.

2324
01:22:13,230 --> 01:22:15,510
It's very simple to me, but everybody's like,

2325
01:22:15,550 --> 01:22:17,430
oh, it's about the minerals, methaminerals.

2326
01:22:17,770 --> 01:22:21,650
And boy, the Brits and the whole system,

2327
01:22:21,890 --> 01:22:23,810
they're all, oh, they're afraid of this.

2328
01:22:23,890 --> 01:22:25,090
They do not like it.

2329
01:22:25,410 --> 01:22:27,330
Witness Canada's solidarity.

2330
01:22:27,330 --> 01:22:30,390
Prime Minister Mark Carney in Paris at a

2331
01:22:30,390 --> 01:22:32,570
summit focused squarely on Ukraine.

2332
01:22:32,770 --> 01:22:35,850
Our main objective is to finalize the security

2333
01:22:35,850 --> 01:22:39,490
guarantees, which create the possibility of a just

2334
01:22:39,490 --> 01:22:40,390
and lasting peace.

2335
01:22:40,810 --> 01:22:43,790
Did you see the signing they did of

2336
01:22:43,790 --> 01:22:45,930
the security agreement?

2337
01:22:46,350 --> 01:22:47,070
I did not.

2338
01:22:47,310 --> 01:22:51,250
Oh, so, and Whitkoff and Kushner are there.

2339
01:22:51,810 --> 01:22:54,110
And they say, oh, we've signed a EU,

2340
01:22:54,450 --> 01:22:55,350
NATO, blah, blah.

2341
01:22:55,350 --> 01:22:57,730
We've signed a security agreement with Ukraine.

2342
01:22:58,010 --> 01:22:59,710
And if you look at the fine print,

2343
01:22:59,810 --> 01:23:04,490
all we're going to do is monitor intelligence.

2344
01:23:04,870 --> 01:23:06,410
We're not providing anything.

2345
01:23:06,990 --> 01:23:09,010
But they act like, oh, yes, it's a

2346
01:23:09,010 --> 01:23:10,870
lasting peace, and the US is a part

2347
01:23:10,870 --> 01:23:11,070
of it.

2348
01:23:11,130 --> 01:23:11,750
We're not.

2349
01:23:12,350 --> 01:23:15,730
The agreement really states we're just monitoring a

2350
01:23:15,730 --> 01:23:16,250
little bit.

2351
01:23:16,450 --> 01:23:18,370
You know, we'll let you know if we

2352
01:23:18,370 --> 01:23:19,370
see anything suspicious.

2353
01:23:19,870 --> 01:23:20,810
We're not providing.

2354
01:23:21,130 --> 01:23:21,350
We'll keep an eye on it.

2355
01:23:21,430 --> 01:23:23,530
That's exactly, we'll keep an eye on it.

2356
01:23:23,530 --> 01:23:26,130
Let's see, I had the, yes, here it

2357
01:23:26,130 --> 01:23:26,290
is.

2358
01:23:26,370 --> 01:23:29,270
It's the Coalition of the Willing Security Guarantee.

2359
01:23:30,050 --> 01:23:32,410
I think I have the exact wording that

2360
01:23:32,410 --> 01:23:33,310
will do it.

2361
01:23:35,130 --> 01:23:37,790
These elements will be European-led with the

2362
01:23:37,790 --> 01:23:40,730
involvement also of non-European members of the

2363
01:23:40,730 --> 01:23:44,490
coalition and the proposed support of the US.

2364
01:23:44,790 --> 01:23:45,830
That's in the agreement.

2365
01:23:46,990 --> 01:23:48,470
Well, that's nothing.

2366
01:23:49,490 --> 01:23:50,730
We're not doing anything.

2367
01:23:50,730 --> 01:23:55,010
Crucially, the monitoring and verification of future ceasefire

2368
01:23:55,010 --> 01:23:56,430
would be led by the US.

2369
01:23:56,830 --> 01:23:58,830
We're going to monitor and verify.

2370
01:23:59,430 --> 01:24:00,530
We're not doing anything.

2371
01:24:01,330 --> 01:24:03,830
This is, they're delusional.

2372
01:24:03,990 --> 01:24:07,290
Along with Carney, European leaders and US representatives,

2373
01:24:07,950 --> 01:24:10,770
Donald Trump's peace envoy, Steve Whitkoff, and the

2374
01:24:10,770 --> 01:24:13,270
US president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

2375
01:24:13,510 --> 01:24:16,390
But it was Trump himself who cast a

2376
01:24:16,390 --> 01:24:19,570
long shadow over this meeting with his increasingly

2377
01:24:19,570 --> 01:24:22,550
bellicose threats against a NATO ally.

2378
01:24:22,850 --> 01:24:25,330
We need Greenland from the standpoint.

2379
01:24:25,410 --> 01:24:26,850
Everybody likes that Nat pop.

2380
01:24:26,950 --> 01:24:28,010
We need Greenland.

2381
01:24:28,130 --> 01:24:29,350
Of national security.

2382
01:24:29,850 --> 01:24:31,330
And Denmark is not going to be able

2383
01:24:31,330 --> 01:24:32,350
to do it, I can tell you.

2384
01:24:33,030 --> 01:24:36,390
After sending US troops into Venezuela to capture

2385
01:24:36,390 --> 01:24:39,310
the country's president, Trump has once again turned

2386
01:24:39,310 --> 01:24:41,810
his attention to Greenland and his desire to

2387
01:24:41,810 --> 01:24:43,730
take over the territory from Denmark.

2388
01:24:44,430 --> 01:24:46,530
In a statement today, the White House called

2389
01:24:46,530 --> 01:24:50,410
acquiring Greenland an important foreign policy goal and

2390
01:24:50,410 --> 01:24:53,050
pointedly refused to rule out military action.

2391
01:24:53,250 --> 01:24:56,990
That after Trump's hardline policy chief, Stephen Miller,

2392
01:24:57,350 --> 01:24:59,690
this week dodged a question on the US

2393
01:24:59,690 --> 01:25:02,330
potentially taking the island by force.

2394
01:25:02,650 --> 01:25:06,190
The United States should have Greenland as part

2395
01:25:06,190 --> 01:25:06,810
of the United States.

2396
01:25:07,110 --> 01:25:08,850
There's no need to even think or talk

2397
01:25:08,850 --> 01:25:11,070
about this in the context of a military

2398
01:25:11,070 --> 01:25:11,670
operation.

2399
01:25:12,030 --> 01:25:14,810
Nobody's going to fight the United States militarily

2400
01:25:14,810 --> 01:25:16,390
over the future of Greenland.

2401
01:25:16,390 --> 01:25:18,150
The question just doesn't make any sense.

2402
01:25:18,550 --> 01:25:20,770
So we could do it under the Compact

2403
01:25:20,770 --> 01:25:23,090
of Freedom Association, which you would do with

2404
01:25:23,090 --> 01:25:28,310
Palau and Micronesia, which in a deal would

2405
01:25:28,310 --> 01:25:29,690
give us full authority.

2406
01:25:29,870 --> 01:25:31,350
And so we don't own Greenland.

2407
01:25:31,530 --> 01:25:33,530
We just say, OK, we have a compact

2408
01:25:33,530 --> 01:25:34,570
of free association.

2409
01:25:35,070 --> 01:25:39,090
We'll pay the 600, 700 million a year

2410
01:25:39,090 --> 01:25:41,330
that Denmark is currently on the hook for.

2411
01:25:41,730 --> 01:25:44,230
And then we get strategic denial rights, the

2412
01:25:44,230 --> 01:25:46,630
legal power to deny military access to third

2413
01:25:46,630 --> 01:25:46,990
parties.

2414
01:25:47,350 --> 01:25:48,530
And I think this is the setup.

2415
01:25:48,990 --> 01:25:51,250
Russia, you take care of that region.

2416
01:25:51,690 --> 01:25:53,250
We'll take care of our hemisphere.

2417
01:25:53,710 --> 01:25:54,970
China, you do your thing.

2418
01:25:55,350 --> 01:25:58,190
They may actually invade Taiwan, but it's not

2419
01:25:58,190 --> 01:25:59,390
going to cut us off from chips.

2420
01:25:59,790 --> 01:26:01,130
They'd be crazy to do that.

2421
01:26:02,090 --> 01:26:05,450
Why would China take over Taiwan and not

2422
01:26:05,450 --> 01:26:06,130
sell us chips?

2423
01:26:08,950 --> 01:26:09,970
That's not going to happen.

2424
01:26:10,130 --> 01:26:11,890
And if you read the Russia, I decided

2425
01:26:11,890 --> 01:26:12,050
to.

2426
01:26:12,050 --> 01:26:14,250
I was looking, I've got some material on

2427
01:26:14,250 --> 01:26:17,530
Iran, which is either falling apart or not.

2428
01:26:18,250 --> 01:26:20,770
Well, I want to stay with Greenland before

2429
01:26:20,770 --> 01:26:21,350
you go to Iran.

2430
01:26:21,550 --> 01:26:21,710
Yeah, I know.

2431
01:26:21,790 --> 01:26:23,230
But I'm just saying I was looking at

2432
01:26:23,230 --> 01:26:26,110
the Russian material to see what was going

2433
01:26:26,110 --> 01:26:26,370
on.

2434
01:26:26,410 --> 01:26:27,790
If they have anything, there's nothing.

2435
01:26:28,730 --> 01:26:31,210
And but I did spot this article in,

2436
01:26:31,290 --> 01:26:33,510
I think it was Sputnik and maybe another

2437
01:26:33,510 --> 01:26:36,750
one in RT saying the US is going

2438
01:26:36,750 --> 01:26:38,190
to buy Greenland.

2439
01:26:40,290 --> 01:26:42,110
Well, the Russians don't even think there's going

2440
01:26:42,110 --> 01:26:42,870
to be military action.

2441
01:26:43,010 --> 01:26:46,050
They they're already convinced that the deal is

2442
01:26:46,050 --> 01:26:48,110
in play to buy.

2443
01:26:48,370 --> 01:26:49,730
You know, this is a matter of what

2444
01:26:49,730 --> 01:26:50,390
are you going to pay?

2445
01:26:50,890 --> 01:26:51,770
I think so, too.

2446
01:26:52,790 --> 01:26:54,190
But it's not going to be an invasion.

2447
01:26:54,270 --> 01:26:55,550
They could also do a lease.

2448
01:26:55,850 --> 01:26:58,370
You know, you can do under the 1951

2449
01:26:58,370 --> 01:26:59,590
defense of Greenland.

2450
01:27:00,330 --> 01:27:03,210
If I was in Denmark, maybe the lease

2451
01:27:03,210 --> 01:27:04,550
would be a good idea for a while

2452
01:27:04,550 --> 01:27:05,670
if you can get enough money out of

2453
01:27:05,670 --> 01:27:05,770
it.

2454
01:27:05,830 --> 01:27:07,210
But 99 years to me.

2455
01:27:08,750 --> 01:27:09,690
Oh, maybe.

2456
01:27:09,830 --> 01:27:12,650
But it's always 99 year lease might work.

2457
01:27:12,930 --> 01:27:15,850
I think that just a straight up if

2458
01:27:15,850 --> 01:27:17,310
you can get a lot of money, a

2459
01:27:17,310 --> 01:27:17,530
big.

2460
01:27:18,010 --> 01:27:19,490
I mean, it's got to be good.

2461
01:27:19,610 --> 01:27:22,510
I mean, Denmark has no interest in Greenland,

2462
01:27:22,790 --> 01:27:23,950
but they could use it.

2463
01:27:24,390 --> 01:27:27,670
You know, 100 billion dollars or two billion

2464
01:27:27,670 --> 01:27:29,950
or 100 billion is a lot.

2465
01:27:30,070 --> 01:27:30,850
There's a lot of money.

2466
01:27:33,010 --> 01:27:37,250
But under that 1951 agreement between the United

2467
01:27:37,250 --> 01:27:42,370
States and Denmark, we have a free hand.

2468
01:27:42,550 --> 01:27:44,890
We can pretty much do anything we want

2469
01:27:44,890 --> 01:27:45,710
with Greenland.

2470
01:27:45,810 --> 01:27:46,690
But that's not the point.

2471
01:27:46,770 --> 01:27:47,730
It's about the water.

2472
01:27:48,130 --> 01:27:51,070
We want to have the right to patrol

2473
01:27:51,070 --> 01:27:54,350
and and basically own that water that as

2474
01:27:54,350 --> 01:27:56,890
the ice melts and as our big, beautiful

2475
01:27:56,890 --> 01:27:59,830
ships that we bought from Finland start to

2476
01:27:59,830 --> 01:28:01,490
break up the ice, it's going to be

2477
01:28:01,490 --> 01:28:02,930
a dynamite place.

2478
01:28:03,930 --> 01:28:06,290
And it also, I think, kind of hurts

2479
01:28:06,290 --> 01:28:08,230
China's Belt and Road, or at least we

2480
01:28:08,230 --> 01:28:09,610
can start charging for passage.

2481
01:28:09,750 --> 01:28:11,370
There's all kinds of benefits to it.

2482
01:28:11,830 --> 01:28:14,470
The rules based order has changed.

2483
01:28:15,570 --> 01:28:17,670
And the only people who haven't realized it

2484
01:28:17,670 --> 01:28:19,630
yet or aren't copping to it is the

2485
01:28:19,630 --> 01:28:20,050
EU.

2486
01:28:21,370 --> 01:28:23,170
And they're just beside themselves.

2487
01:28:23,470 --> 01:28:24,790
Where's Ursula in all this?

2488
01:28:24,850 --> 01:28:25,630
Where's Queen Ursula?

2489
01:28:25,730 --> 01:28:27,530
She hasn't been yelling about anything recently.

2490
01:28:28,250 --> 01:28:29,190
I'm missing that.

2491
01:28:29,570 --> 01:28:32,070
Here's part two of this Canada solidarity with

2492
01:28:32,070 --> 01:28:32,490
Greenland.

2493
01:28:32,770 --> 01:28:36,290
Denmark's prime minister, Mette Fredriksen, says the question

2494
01:28:36,290 --> 01:28:38,350
needs to be taken at face value.

2495
01:28:38,750 --> 01:28:43,970
I believe the American president should be taken

2496
01:28:43,970 --> 01:28:46,510
seriously when he says he wants Greenland, she

2497
01:28:46,510 --> 01:28:46,930
says.

2498
01:28:47,270 --> 01:28:49,290
But I also want to make clear that

2499
01:28:49,290 --> 01:28:51,990
if the United States chooses to attack another

2500
01:28:51,990 --> 01:28:55,350
NATO country, then everything stops, including NATO.

2501
01:28:55,350 --> 01:28:58,250
Mark Carney met the Danish PM at the

2502
01:28:58,250 --> 01:29:01,390
Paris summit and announced Foreign Affairs Minister Anita

2503
01:29:01,390 --> 01:29:04,770
Anand and Governor General Mary Simon would visit

2504
01:29:04,770 --> 01:29:07,450
Greenland next month to open a new Canadian

2505
01:29:07,450 --> 01:29:08,170
consulate.

2506
01:29:08,690 --> 01:29:11,670
Carney today trying to strike a diplomatic tone.

2507
01:29:11,790 --> 01:29:13,250
We stand with Denmark.

2508
01:29:13,530 --> 01:29:14,250
We stand with Greenland.

2509
01:29:15,110 --> 01:29:17,850
Our closest partnership is with the United States.

2510
01:29:17,990 --> 01:29:19,570
And we'll work with everybody to make sure

2511
01:29:19,570 --> 01:29:21,870
that we move forward together.

2512
01:29:21,870 --> 01:29:25,670
The leaders of six European NATO countries, the

2513
01:29:25,670 --> 01:29:29,710
UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Spain, joined

2514
01:29:29,710 --> 01:29:32,910
Denmark in a joint declaration calling the U

2515
01:29:32,910 --> 01:29:36,590
.S. an essential partner, but underlining Greenland belongs

2516
01:29:36,590 --> 01:29:39,670
to its people, that Denmark and Greenland alone

2517
01:29:39,670 --> 01:29:41,170
will decide their future.

2518
01:29:41,630 --> 01:29:44,510
The question whether a newly emboldened U.S.

2519
01:29:44,590 --> 01:29:46,310
president shares that view.

2520
01:29:46,970 --> 01:29:49,310
I think it's just trolling.

2521
01:29:50,170 --> 01:29:50,890
It's just trolling.

2522
01:29:51,330 --> 01:29:52,550
He's going to make a deal.

2523
01:29:53,430 --> 01:29:54,450
And I think everyone will be like, oh,

2524
01:29:54,450 --> 01:29:55,150
that's a pretty good deal.

2525
01:29:56,210 --> 01:29:57,250
Yeah, it'll be a good deal.

2526
01:29:57,570 --> 01:29:58,650
It's going to be a great deal.

2527
01:30:01,030 --> 01:30:03,930
And, you know, then things slowly unfold.

2528
01:30:05,090 --> 01:30:07,450
I see that the music is going to

2529
01:30:07,450 --> 01:30:09,450
stop and we're going to have the EU

2530
01:30:09,450 --> 01:30:10,230
with nothing.

2531
01:30:12,710 --> 01:30:13,130
Nothing.

2532
01:30:14,870 --> 01:30:16,490
So what do you know about the Berlin

2533
01:30:16,490 --> 01:30:17,550
blackout?

2534
01:30:17,790 --> 01:30:18,870
I don't have any clips.

2535
01:30:19,910 --> 01:30:21,810
I couldn't get anything that was useful.

2536
01:30:21,810 --> 01:30:25,650
No, Euronews has these African guys doing voiceover.

2537
01:30:25,790 --> 01:30:26,930
You can't even understand them.

2538
01:30:27,050 --> 01:30:29,530
Did they run out of Europeans to do

2539
01:30:29,530 --> 01:30:30,290
the Euronews?

2540
01:30:30,850 --> 01:30:31,510
I guess so.

2541
01:30:33,310 --> 01:30:37,310
So they've targeted power stations.

2542
01:30:37,750 --> 01:30:40,610
I don't know if it's a transformer or

2543
01:30:40,610 --> 01:30:42,410
a relay or if it's the actual power

2544
01:30:42,410 --> 01:30:45,310
station, but the word is that they're using

2545
01:30:45,310 --> 01:30:47,730
some kind of EMP or, you know, they're

2546
01:30:47,730 --> 01:30:49,030
frying the electronics.

2547
01:30:49,030 --> 01:30:52,290
So they're not planting bombs, they're frying stuff.

2548
01:30:52,730 --> 01:30:55,710
And it's taking six, seven days to get

2549
01:30:55,710 --> 01:30:56,950
these things back online.

2550
01:30:57,550 --> 01:30:58,870
I have a feeling we got some people

2551
01:30:58,870 --> 01:31:00,070
out there who might be able to help

2552
01:31:00,070 --> 01:31:02,410
us understand what's going on.

2553
01:31:03,530 --> 01:31:04,370
Yeah, maybe.

2554
01:31:04,630 --> 01:31:08,010
And it's all being blamed on Antifa, which

2555
01:31:08,010 --> 01:31:11,470
is, at this point, isn't Antifa just basically

2556
01:31:11,470 --> 01:31:12,530
radical Muslims?

2557
01:31:13,270 --> 01:31:15,090
Because they got enough of those in Europe.

2558
01:31:16,050 --> 01:31:16,950
It may be code.

2559
01:31:17,610 --> 01:31:18,930
It's probably code.

2560
01:31:19,310 --> 01:31:20,130
I think so.

2561
01:31:21,110 --> 01:31:21,790
It's code.

2562
01:31:22,390 --> 01:31:23,970
But we don't know what the code is.

2563
01:31:24,930 --> 01:31:25,510
Not yet.

2564
01:31:25,990 --> 01:31:26,550
Not yet.

2565
01:31:27,410 --> 01:31:30,430
So I've been following this Iranian thing.

2566
01:31:30,530 --> 01:31:32,810
There's a bunch of live streamers.

2567
01:31:32,950 --> 01:31:34,170
Yeah, it's groovy.

2568
01:31:34,770 --> 01:31:38,270
And this one guy, 2CTOUSI.TV and his

2569
01:31:38,270 --> 01:31:42,070
crew of TV, supposed TV people, has been

2570
01:31:42,070 --> 01:31:45,970
pushing the fact that I think one city,

2571
01:31:46,290 --> 01:31:48,770
at least one, the second biggest city in

2572
01:31:48,770 --> 01:31:52,250
Iran, Mossad or Massoud, whatever you pronounce it,

2573
01:31:52,710 --> 01:31:53,450
has fallen.

2574
01:31:54,330 --> 01:31:55,790
And there's other towns fallen.

2575
01:31:55,950 --> 01:31:58,010
They're making it sound as if there is

2576
01:31:58,010 --> 01:32:01,290
a, all hell's breaking loose.

2577
01:32:01,810 --> 01:32:03,890
And so this is either, but nobody's covering

2578
01:32:03,890 --> 01:32:04,410
it in the West.

2579
01:32:04,550 --> 01:32:05,710
And so I looked up, I looked at

2580
01:32:05,710 --> 01:32:07,690
all the media reports, because this guy says

2581
01:32:07,690 --> 01:32:09,030
the Russians, that's why I was looking at

2582
01:32:09,030 --> 01:32:09,650
Russian stuff.

2583
01:32:09,650 --> 01:32:11,650
The Russians have said that it's going to

2584
01:32:11,650 --> 01:32:14,170
be a matter of days before the regime

2585
01:32:14,170 --> 01:32:14,850
falls.

2586
01:32:15,370 --> 01:32:18,990
Meanwhile, American mainstream media is not, no mainstream

2587
01:32:18,990 --> 01:32:19,910
media is covering this.

2588
01:32:19,990 --> 01:32:21,570
The New York Times did have an article

2589
01:32:21,570 --> 01:32:24,650
yesterday that discussed, and it looked like hell

2590
01:32:24,650 --> 01:32:25,450
is breaking loose.

2591
01:32:25,630 --> 01:32:26,990
And it was, but it was buried.

2592
01:32:27,110 --> 01:32:28,470
It was buried for some reason.

2593
01:32:28,570 --> 01:32:31,230
So this can't be an op, our boys

2594
01:32:31,230 --> 01:32:36,390
doing anything, because usually we plant stuff in

2595
01:32:36,390 --> 01:32:37,010
the media.

2596
01:32:37,010 --> 01:32:39,790
If we're doing, if it's our boys doing

2597
01:32:39,790 --> 01:32:42,630
the intel and causing trouble.

2598
01:32:43,010 --> 01:32:44,730
So this is somewhat mysterious.

2599
01:32:45,550 --> 01:32:46,470
But I want to play these.

2600
01:32:46,570 --> 01:32:48,830
I only have two clips because otherwise it

2601
01:32:48,830 --> 01:32:49,750
doesn't make a lot of sense.

2602
01:32:49,830 --> 01:32:51,450
Nobody even knows this is going on.

2603
01:32:51,830 --> 01:32:52,870
But this is from this guy.

2604
01:32:52,950 --> 01:32:56,250
This is from yesterday, last night, actually.

2605
01:32:56,770 --> 01:32:59,890
This is the Iran falling from 2CTV.

2606
01:33:00,470 --> 01:33:02,730
Hello, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to 2CTV.

2607
01:33:02,930 --> 01:33:03,790
Oh yeah, I know this guy.

2608
01:33:04,090 --> 01:33:04,770
He's good.

2609
01:33:05,270 --> 01:33:06,410
Thank God for YouTube.

2610
01:33:06,410 --> 01:33:09,710
Your global news channel, Ammar Tursi, and the

2611
01:33:09,710 --> 01:33:13,010
revolution in Iran is getting closer and closer

2612
01:33:13,010 --> 01:33:14,090
to completion.

2613
01:33:14,670 --> 01:33:17,810
The Iranian people are now celebrating in multiple

2614
01:33:17,810 --> 01:33:21,870
cities, as we now have reports from two

2615
01:33:21,870 --> 01:33:23,630
or three new cities who have now fallen

2616
01:33:23,630 --> 01:33:27,010
into the hands of the anti-Islamic occupation

2617
01:33:27,010 --> 01:33:27,650
Iranians.

2618
01:33:28,130 --> 01:33:31,370
That includes, of course, the second largest city,

2619
01:33:32,230 --> 01:33:32,770
Mashhad.

2620
01:33:33,410 --> 01:33:36,370
But most of Karaj is now also under

2621
01:33:36,370 --> 01:33:38,290
the control of the people, as their security

2622
01:33:38,290 --> 01:33:41,550
forces have now retreated from those areas.

2623
01:33:42,070 --> 01:33:46,330
The members of the military, police, and Basij

2624
01:33:46,330 --> 01:33:50,390
have defected to the revolution from the regime

2625
01:33:50,390 --> 01:33:54,330
and government buildings have been taken over in

2626
01:33:54,330 --> 01:33:56,610
multiple cities and regions.

2627
01:33:57,110 --> 01:33:58,110
There is a lot happening.

2628
01:33:58,190 --> 01:33:59,330
We're going to show you all the videos.

2629
01:33:59,450 --> 01:34:01,170
We're going to get your reaction as usual.

2630
01:34:01,170 --> 01:34:04,010
And also, we are getting literally minutes before

2631
01:34:04,010 --> 01:34:06,950
we came live, Russian media, the Russian...

2632
01:34:06,950 --> 01:34:07,770
What is going on here?

2633
01:34:07,790 --> 01:34:10,770
The Russian media are now reporting the fall

2634
01:34:10,770 --> 01:34:14,490
of the regime in Iran is imminent.

2635
01:34:16,310 --> 01:34:19,010
And okay, so we also got a big

2636
01:34:19,010 --> 01:34:21,630
shout out to Cheyenne X, just telling me

2637
01:34:21,630 --> 01:34:28,490
another government building headquarters in the city of...

2638
01:34:28,490 --> 01:34:29,850
Oh, this is actually in the northeast that

2639
01:34:29,850 --> 01:34:30,590
has now fallen.

2640
01:34:31,230 --> 01:34:32,850
We're just going to go to the videos

2641
01:34:32,850 --> 01:34:35,450
that we are receiving as we speak, and

2642
01:34:35,450 --> 01:34:36,990
we'll talk about what's going on with the

2643
01:34:36,990 --> 01:34:38,690
Russian media as well.

2644
01:34:38,770 --> 01:34:39,910
A lot to talk about.

2645
01:34:40,030 --> 01:34:44,870
First things first, earlier today in Charmahal-Baghdadi

2646
01:34:44,870 --> 01:34:48,770
province, we had armed individuals fighting back, defending

2647
01:34:48,770 --> 01:34:52,730
themselves against the Islamic occupation forces in the

2648
01:34:52,730 --> 01:34:54,830
eastern part of Iran.

2649
01:34:55,170 --> 01:34:57,150
He's a little bit of a yak yakker.

2650
01:34:57,250 --> 01:34:58,630
He could get to the point a little

2651
01:34:58,630 --> 01:34:59,170
faster.

2652
01:34:59,310 --> 01:35:01,010
Yeah, that's why I didn't like clipping him.

2653
01:35:01,170 --> 01:35:02,970
At least there was something there.

2654
01:35:03,170 --> 01:35:04,570
I got some clips after you're done.

2655
01:35:05,330 --> 01:35:08,010
Okay, and this is the second part where

2656
01:35:08,010 --> 01:35:09,450
he just yaks a little more.

2657
01:35:11,170 --> 01:35:13,310
So he mentions Russian media.

2658
01:35:13,410 --> 01:35:14,730
So I went to Russian media.

2659
01:35:14,910 --> 01:35:15,870
I did deep searches.

2660
01:35:16,550 --> 01:35:19,510
I went to two or three different sites

2661
01:35:19,510 --> 01:35:21,650
that I could get to on a VPN.

2662
01:35:21,790 --> 01:35:22,310
There's nothing.

2663
01:35:22,670 --> 01:35:23,850
I don't know what he's talking about.

2664
01:35:24,190 --> 01:35:27,830
This is an op of some sort, maybe,

2665
01:35:28,270 --> 01:35:30,310
or maybe this is actually taking place.

2666
01:35:30,310 --> 01:35:31,970
They have a lot of videos coming in

2667
01:35:31,970 --> 01:35:33,470
from these, you know, that you can think

2668
01:35:33,470 --> 01:35:36,190
Elon Musk might be behind it because it's

2669
01:35:36,190 --> 01:35:38,490
his satellites that are providing us with any.

2670
01:35:39,670 --> 01:35:40,310
Wait a minute.

2671
01:35:40,370 --> 01:35:41,970
So what you're saying is you question if

2672
01:35:41,970 --> 01:35:42,430
it's real?

2673
01:35:43,370 --> 01:35:44,530
Oh yeah, big time.

2674
01:35:44,910 --> 01:35:45,050
Okay.

2675
01:35:46,110 --> 01:35:48,350
But at the same time, New York Times

2676
01:35:48,350 --> 01:35:51,630
does have a story, but they couch it

2677
01:35:51,630 --> 01:35:53,930
slightly differently, but it's buried.

2678
01:35:54,710 --> 01:35:56,650
And you'd think it might not be buried

2679
01:35:56,650 --> 01:35:58,390
because remember the last time there was like

2680
01:35:58,390 --> 01:36:00,750
a pink revolution or some bull crap during

2681
01:36:00,750 --> 01:36:01,710
Obama, I think.

2682
01:36:01,870 --> 01:36:02,770
Green, green revolution.

2683
01:36:02,910 --> 01:36:05,350
Green and that they, that's crapped out, but

2684
01:36:05,350 --> 01:36:06,530
it got a lot of, got a lot

2685
01:36:06,530 --> 01:36:07,850
of PR in Western media.

2686
01:36:07,950 --> 01:36:08,650
This is getting nothing.

2687
01:36:08,810 --> 01:36:11,370
This is getting no play at all.

2688
01:36:11,450 --> 01:36:13,450
Well, hello, we have, we have ice in

2689
01:36:13,450 --> 01:36:13,950
Minnesota.

2690
01:36:14,290 --> 01:36:15,330
That's much more important.

2691
01:36:16,110 --> 01:36:18,290
And if this is not, and if this

2692
01:36:18,290 --> 01:36:20,770
is an op and it's not taking place

2693
01:36:20,770 --> 01:36:22,710
and it's all created, it's all a fantasy,

2694
01:36:22,890 --> 01:36:24,610
that's worth covering too.

2695
01:36:24,610 --> 01:36:28,190
I mean, you either cover it as a

2696
01:36:28,190 --> 01:36:30,610
revolution that's taking place in Iran because this

2697
01:36:30,610 --> 01:36:33,810
is a major country or if it's bull

2698
01:36:33,810 --> 01:36:35,950
crap, you cover that as such.

2699
01:36:36,070 --> 01:36:38,270
It's not being covered in any way at

2700
01:36:38,270 --> 01:36:40,490
all, except by, you know, right here.

2701
01:36:41,350 --> 01:36:44,030
And it's, so it's something somewhat mysterious, the

2702
01:36:44,030 --> 01:36:44,470
whole thing.

2703
01:36:44,530 --> 01:36:46,090
But the Russians, I don't see anything in

2704
01:36:46,090 --> 01:36:48,570
Russian media that's the, that the, that the

2705
01:36:48,570 --> 01:36:51,290
regime has fallen, but maybe he's got a

2706
01:36:51,290 --> 01:36:52,330
different source than I do.

2707
01:36:52,710 --> 01:36:54,290
But let's play part two.

2708
01:36:54,610 --> 01:36:57,170
Shortly after this, we had a massive escalation

2709
01:36:57,170 --> 01:37:01,310
as the offices of the representative, the direct

2710
01:37:01,310 --> 01:37:04,470
representative of Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader.

2711
01:37:04,590 --> 01:37:07,690
So his branch, basically his IRGC branch, it

2712
01:37:07,690 --> 01:37:10,110
was taken over and destroyed.

2713
01:37:10,270 --> 01:37:11,930
This is crazy, absolutely insane.

2714
01:37:12,090 --> 01:37:15,010
The updates that we're getting tonight, every night

2715
01:37:15,010 --> 01:37:17,610
is just escalating slightly more.

2716
01:37:18,250 --> 01:37:21,390
And just a reminder, only about three days

2717
01:37:21,390 --> 01:37:24,990
ago, four days ago, the update came that,

2718
01:37:25,090 --> 01:37:27,070
of course, the backup plan for Khamenei and

2719
01:37:27,070 --> 01:37:29,130
20 of his closer people in the inner

2720
01:37:29,130 --> 01:37:32,530
circle will be planning to flee to Moscow

2721
01:37:32,530 --> 01:37:35,430
if the regime can't handle this.

2722
01:37:35,950 --> 01:37:39,130
And if defections begin, both of them have

2723
01:37:39,130 --> 01:37:39,750
now started.

2724
01:37:40,670 --> 01:37:42,670
The IRGC are not able to take back

2725
01:37:42,670 --> 01:37:43,530
control of the country.

2726
01:37:43,790 --> 01:37:45,610
And we have, we'll continue to get more

2727
01:37:45,610 --> 01:37:46,670
defections from the regime.

2728
01:37:46,790 --> 01:37:49,850
So as I said, the Russian media are

2729
01:37:49,850 --> 01:37:51,610
now reporting that the fall of the regime

2730
01:37:51,610 --> 01:37:54,270
is imminent, it's coming now at this point.

2731
01:37:54,910 --> 01:37:56,470
And so we don't know exactly how many

2732
01:37:56,470 --> 01:37:58,170
hours or days we are looking at.

2733
01:37:58,250 --> 01:38:00,650
But if tomorrow is like this, or even

2734
01:38:00,650 --> 01:38:03,810
escalates, more government buildings fall, well, it's going

2735
01:38:03,810 --> 01:38:04,790
to be bye-bye, Ali.

2736
01:38:05,410 --> 01:38:09,870
But Khangan in Iran, the Islamic forces, they

2737
01:38:09,870 --> 01:38:11,290
are panicking so much.

2738
01:38:11,470 --> 01:38:12,190
What did I tell you?

2739
01:38:12,210 --> 01:38:14,370
Over the last 10, 11 days, they're not

2740
01:38:14,370 --> 01:38:18,250
able to actually form an organized, structured crackdown

2741
01:38:18,250 --> 01:38:19,190
like previously.

2742
01:38:19,190 --> 01:38:22,250
So you only see a small group standing

2743
01:38:22,250 --> 01:38:25,230
in a corner, the IRGC guys, and when

2744
01:38:25,230 --> 01:38:28,050
they get desperate, when they get terrified, they

2745
01:38:28,050 --> 01:38:30,010
start shooting at whatever they see in front

2746
01:38:30,010 --> 01:38:30,410
of them.

2747
01:38:31,190 --> 01:38:31,470
Okay.

2748
01:38:31,730 --> 01:38:33,950
So I have a couple of clips that

2749
01:38:33,950 --> 01:38:36,370
I was able to find from France 24.

2750
01:38:37,890 --> 01:38:40,010
And I think it's real.

2751
01:38:40,290 --> 01:38:42,770
And I think it really for one reason,

2752
01:38:43,190 --> 01:38:44,210
and that's the money.

2753
01:38:49,190 --> 01:38:51,010
With crisis in years, they just don't have

2754
01:38:51,010 --> 01:38:51,450
the money.

2755
01:38:52,830 --> 01:38:54,390
A liter of cooking oil used to be

2756
01:38:54,390 --> 01:38:56,270
790,000 rials.

2757
01:38:56,750 --> 01:38:58,650
It's now 1.85 million.

2758
01:38:59,370 --> 01:39:01,590
As the government announced, prices for other goods

2759
01:39:01,590 --> 01:39:03,910
will rise by 50% to 100%.

2760
01:39:04,450 --> 01:39:07,110
As goods become more expensive, costs for all

2761
01:39:07,110 --> 01:39:08,470
services will increase too.

2762
01:39:08,950 --> 01:39:11,270
The price hikes will spread into other areas

2763
01:39:11,270 --> 01:39:12,150
of people's lives.

2764
01:39:13,670 --> 01:39:15,950
Iranians took to the streets late last month

2765
01:39:15,950 --> 01:39:18,290
as the rial plunged to 1.4 million

2766
01:39:18,290 --> 01:39:19,430
against the US dollar.

2767
01:39:20,190 --> 01:39:22,770
With inflation in overdrive, the rials lost 60

2768
01:39:22,770 --> 01:39:24,990
% of its value against the greenback since

2769
01:39:24,990 --> 01:39:25,350
summer.

2770
01:39:26,130 --> 01:39:29,510
While warning of severe consequences for rioters, Iranian

2771
01:39:29,510 --> 01:39:31,810
authorities have struggled to shore up the collapsing

2772
01:39:31,810 --> 01:39:35,250
economy, recently ending a subsidized exchange rate for

2773
01:39:35,250 --> 01:39:37,770
importers that was meant to suppress prices for

2774
01:39:37,770 --> 01:39:40,970
essential products in favor of paying Iranians directly.

2775
01:39:43,150 --> 01:39:45,430
We have not eliminated subsidies.

2776
01:39:45,430 --> 01:39:49,270
Instead, we have started depositing the subsidies into

2777
01:39:49,270 --> 01:39:51,330
the bank accounts of all residents.

2778
01:39:53,250 --> 01:39:55,930
The sum, about $7, ought to pay for

2779
01:39:55,930 --> 01:39:57,870
around 100 eggs and a few kilos of

2780
01:39:57,870 --> 01:39:59,430
rice or chicken at current prices.

2781
01:39:59,870 --> 01:40:01,990
While it will help Iran's poorest, the policy

2782
01:40:01,990 --> 01:40:04,330
change is set to push prices even higher.

2783
01:40:04,850 --> 01:40:07,770
I think they saw that they couldn't rein

2784
01:40:07,770 --> 01:40:09,910
in inflation, so they said, let's give people

2785
01:40:09,910 --> 01:40:12,450
a million tomans so we can somehow absorb

2786
01:40:12,450 --> 01:40:14,250
the pressure to hold it back.

2787
01:40:14,250 --> 01:40:16,570
I mean, it's like a temporary painkiller.

2788
01:40:17,850 --> 01:40:21,150
Iran's reformist president has acknowledged his people's pain.

2789
01:40:21,470 --> 01:40:22,830
But if he wants to make more than

2790
01:40:22,830 --> 01:40:25,330
just a gesture, he may need far deeper

2791
01:40:25,330 --> 01:40:28,130
change than Tehran has until now been willing

2792
01:40:28,130 --> 01:40:28,670
to make.

2793
01:40:29,070 --> 01:40:33,170
Okay, so if you have rampant inflation like

2794
01:40:33,170 --> 01:40:36,370
that, and your solution is to give everybody

2795
01:40:36,370 --> 01:40:39,010
a thousand bucks, that's not going to last

2796
01:40:39,010 --> 01:40:39,590
very long.

2797
01:40:39,790 --> 01:40:42,390
That is the definition of how you ruin

2798
01:40:42,390 --> 01:40:42,690
it.

2799
01:40:43,370 --> 01:40:45,910
And I think that there is real frustration.

2800
01:40:46,230 --> 01:40:47,670
Water has been mismanaged.

2801
01:40:47,830 --> 01:40:48,690
People have been watered.

2802
01:40:48,750 --> 01:40:49,310
They're out of water.

2803
01:40:49,670 --> 01:40:50,530
There's no water.

2804
01:40:50,990 --> 01:40:51,490
They can't.

2805
01:40:51,550 --> 01:40:52,750
And I mean, there's video.

2806
01:40:52,910 --> 01:40:54,930
The bazaars are all closed, which is the

2807
01:40:54,930 --> 01:40:56,310
main way of doing business.

2808
01:40:56,450 --> 01:40:57,150
That's the main thing.

2809
01:40:57,590 --> 01:41:00,630
So this inflation thing is, but again, this,

2810
01:41:00,790 --> 01:41:03,150
even this report seems, you know, they never

2811
01:41:03,150 --> 01:41:03,950
give you numbers.

2812
01:41:04,010 --> 01:41:04,570
What's the number?

2813
01:41:04,630 --> 01:41:06,190
I'll ask you, right, because it wasn't in

2814
01:41:06,190 --> 01:41:06,650
that report.

2815
01:41:06,690 --> 01:41:08,530
What is their inflation number in Iran right

2816
01:41:08,530 --> 01:41:08,830
now?

2817
01:41:09,590 --> 01:41:11,590
Well, he didn't give the inflation number, but

2818
01:41:11,590 --> 01:41:13,730
the guy said it used to be 750

2819
01:41:13,730 --> 01:41:18,950
,000 shekels, whatever they use over there.

2820
01:41:19,370 --> 01:41:19,570
Rials.

2821
01:41:19,970 --> 01:41:20,270
Rials.

2822
01:41:20,730 --> 01:41:24,330
And now it's 1.5. So, I mean,

2823
01:41:24,390 --> 01:41:29,230
that seems like a 100% inflation right

2824
01:41:29,230 --> 01:41:29,510
there.

2825
01:41:29,630 --> 01:41:30,550
Yeah, which is not.

2826
01:41:30,890 --> 01:41:33,150
Right now, the inflation rate in Iran is,

2827
01:41:33,430 --> 01:41:35,630
depending on who you ask, is between 40

2828
01:41:35,630 --> 01:41:37,630
and 50% per year.

2829
01:41:37,630 --> 01:41:38,410
That's not good.

2830
01:41:39,590 --> 01:41:40,870
That's not good either.

2831
01:41:40,870 --> 01:41:41,970
No, it's not good.

2832
01:41:42,090 --> 01:41:42,470
It's bad.

2833
01:41:42,570 --> 01:41:44,790
In fact, we had 9%, but it's cumulative,

2834
01:41:45,210 --> 01:41:46,870
which makes it really worse over time.

2835
01:41:47,450 --> 01:41:50,130
But it's, but at a 40%, the numbers

2836
01:41:50,130 --> 01:41:51,890
they're giving don't make sense because a 40

2837
01:41:51,890 --> 01:41:53,470
% year over year, I'm going to go

2838
01:41:53,470 --> 01:41:55,890
with the low number, 40% year over

2839
01:41:55,890 --> 01:41:58,630
year means that something from that last year

2840
01:41:58,630 --> 01:42:00,790
cost a buck is not going to cost

2841
01:42:00,790 --> 01:42:01,630
you a buck 40.

2842
01:42:01,970 --> 01:42:02,110
Okay.

2843
01:42:02,270 --> 01:42:04,270
Is that, is that, that's not like the

2844
01:42:04,270 --> 01:42:06,010
numbers are going into the millions.

2845
01:42:07,010 --> 01:42:08,230
That's just, that's just.

2846
01:42:08,390 --> 01:42:10,390
I think this, listen, I'm telling you, there's

2847
01:42:10,390 --> 01:42:11,750
an up going on here.

2848
01:42:12,290 --> 01:42:13,870
Well, it could be a financial up.

2849
01:42:15,490 --> 01:42:18,250
Scott Besant may be doing something really interesting.

2850
01:42:18,470 --> 01:42:19,070
I don't know.

2851
01:42:19,730 --> 01:42:22,750
So yeah, the annual inflation rate 42.4%.

2852
01:42:22,750 --> 01:42:23,810
This is from my robot.

2853
01:42:24,310 --> 01:42:27,730
Point to point inflation, which is between December

2854
01:42:27,730 --> 01:42:33,210
2024, December 2025 is 52.6. So it's

2855
01:42:33,210 --> 01:42:37,030
rising by about three, 4% month over

2856
01:42:37,030 --> 01:42:37,510
month.

2857
01:42:39,110 --> 01:42:41,710
But you make it impossible for people to

2858
01:42:41,710 --> 01:42:43,450
buy food and have no water.

2859
01:42:43,810 --> 01:42:43,950
Yeah.

2860
01:42:44,030 --> 01:42:45,010
They're going to get angry.

2861
01:42:45,470 --> 01:42:46,990
Now I did find one guy.

2862
01:42:47,230 --> 01:42:49,590
I can't find any op connections to him.

2863
01:42:50,150 --> 01:42:52,050
His name is Kian Habibian.

2864
01:42:52,610 --> 01:42:54,210
And by the way, Iran is not a

2865
01:42:54,210 --> 01:42:56,370
bunch of towel head bunnies running around in

2866
01:42:56,370 --> 01:42:56,810
the desert.

2867
01:42:56,990 --> 01:42:57,950
No, they're Persians.

2868
01:42:58,070 --> 01:42:59,430
It's a very old culture.

2869
01:42:59,650 --> 01:42:59,950
Yes.

2870
01:43:00,010 --> 01:43:01,730
And they have a lot of connections to

2871
01:43:01,730 --> 01:43:02,910
America, in particular California.

2872
01:43:03,410 --> 01:43:04,170
And I think they're sick and tired of

2873
01:43:04,170 --> 01:43:05,810
covering their pretty women up.

2874
01:43:06,370 --> 01:43:09,470
Well, so this guy actually comes from, he

2875
01:43:09,470 --> 01:43:11,570
was the co-founder originally of We Are

2876
01:43:11,570 --> 01:43:12,630
Iranian Students.

2877
01:43:13,710 --> 01:43:16,070
And he was also a part of something

2878
01:43:16,070 --> 01:43:16,950
about the women.

2879
01:43:17,150 --> 01:43:18,810
The Iranian students, by the way, the ones

2880
01:43:18,810 --> 01:43:21,810
responsible for putting this administration in place in

2881
01:43:21,810 --> 01:43:23,210
79 in the first place.

2882
01:43:23,250 --> 01:43:25,330
It was the Iranian students, but okay.

2883
01:43:25,650 --> 01:43:26,050
Okay.

2884
01:43:26,590 --> 01:43:27,070
1979.

2885
01:43:27,810 --> 01:43:27,970
Okay.

2886
01:43:28,070 --> 01:43:28,350
I know.

2887
01:43:28,430 --> 01:43:30,290
I'm just saying the Iranian students are just

2888
01:43:30,290 --> 01:43:31,330
a bunch of screw ups.

2889
01:43:32,230 --> 01:43:32,630
Okay.

2890
01:43:32,710 --> 01:43:34,290
Well, let's give them the benefit of the

2891
01:43:34,290 --> 01:43:34,550
doubt.

2892
01:43:34,550 --> 01:43:37,590
And let's listen to this guy, Kian Habibian.

2893
01:43:37,750 --> 01:43:40,910
These protesters in Tehran's Grand Bazaar chanted slogans

2894
01:43:40,910 --> 01:43:42,990
calling for the fall of the Iranian regime.

2895
01:43:43,290 --> 01:43:45,890
They were ultimately dispersed when security forces fired

2896
01:43:45,890 --> 01:43:46,470
tear gas.

2897
01:43:46,750 --> 01:43:49,490
Since the 28th of December, the demonstrations have

2898
01:43:49,490 --> 01:43:52,310
spread from Tehran to other areas, particularly in

2899
01:43:52,310 --> 01:43:53,210
the west of the country.

2900
01:43:53,590 --> 01:43:55,470
They were initially against the high cost of

2901
01:43:55,470 --> 01:43:57,150
living, but are now taking aim at the

2902
01:43:57,150 --> 01:43:59,370
regime itself, as this founder of a group

2903
01:43:59,370 --> 01:44:02,250
supporting Iran's protesters explained to France 24.

2904
01:44:02,250 --> 01:44:06,070
Since last Sunday, it started with the Bazaar

2905
01:44:06,070 --> 01:44:08,330
who went on strike and quickly joined by

2906
01:44:08,330 --> 01:44:08,850
students.

2907
01:44:09,030 --> 01:44:10,990
But the protests and the pressure inside of

2908
01:44:10,990 --> 01:44:13,990
Iran, whether it is social or economic, is

2909
01:44:13,990 --> 01:44:16,910
so high on the population that you have

2910
01:44:16,910 --> 01:44:19,450
different parts of the population who are right

2911
01:44:19,450 --> 01:44:20,250
now in the streets.

2912
01:44:20,670 --> 01:44:21,950
You have all the people who don't find

2913
01:44:21,950 --> 01:44:22,290
jobs.

2914
01:44:22,470 --> 01:44:23,250
You have the students.

2915
01:44:23,550 --> 01:44:24,870
You have the merchants.

2916
01:44:25,250 --> 01:44:26,970
You have our parents, our grandparents.

2917
01:44:27,390 --> 01:44:29,990
All the people have joined in a common

2918
01:44:29,990 --> 01:44:31,510
call to end the regime.

2919
01:44:31,510 --> 01:44:33,850
Iranian authorities have announced they will give a

2920
01:44:33,850 --> 01:44:36,070
monthly allowance to every citizen in the country

2921
01:44:36,070 --> 01:44:38,430
in a bid to alleviate economic pressure.

2922
01:44:38,630 --> 01:44:40,630
But for some Iranians, it's not enough.

2923
01:44:40,770 --> 01:44:42,650
The government says it has heard the concerns

2924
01:44:42,650 --> 01:44:45,130
of protesters but has stepped up a crackdown

2925
01:44:45,130 --> 01:44:46,510
on what it calls rioters.

2926
01:44:46,790 --> 01:44:49,510
According to Norway-based NGO Iran Human Rights,

2927
01:44:49,830 --> 01:44:53,050
security forces have killed dozens of demonstrators, including

2928
01:44:53,050 --> 01:44:53,930
several minors.

2929
01:44:54,210 --> 01:44:56,810
Iranian authorities say clashes have also claimed the

2930
01:44:56,810 --> 01:44:59,370
lives of members of the security forces, including

2931
01:44:59,370 --> 01:45:01,410
a policeman who was shot dead on Tuesday.

2932
01:45:01,630 --> 01:45:03,670
U.S. President Donald Trump has warned Iranian

2933
01:45:03,670 --> 01:45:07,110
authorities against killing peaceful protesters, threatening that the

2934
01:45:07,110 --> 01:45:08,090
U.S. would intervene.

2935
01:45:08,530 --> 01:45:11,650
So this Kian guy, he's based in Paris.

2936
01:45:11,710 --> 01:45:13,570
He used to be a professional ice hockey

2937
01:45:13,570 --> 01:45:13,990
player.

2938
01:45:14,730 --> 01:45:16,510
So that's how, I guess, he ejected out.

2939
01:45:17,130 --> 01:45:19,290
But this thing started, kind of, there was

2940
01:45:19,290 --> 01:45:24,290
a, they have their martyr, Masha Amini, who

2941
01:45:24,290 --> 01:45:27,610
died in the hospital under, you know, suspicious...

2942
01:45:27,610 --> 01:45:29,490
Yeah, that was over a year ago.

2943
01:45:29,490 --> 01:45:31,830
Yeah, so it's been brewing since then.

2944
01:45:31,890 --> 01:45:34,650
That's when he came onto the scene and

2945
01:45:34,650 --> 01:45:37,010
started making noise.

2946
01:45:38,130 --> 01:45:41,710
So, I mean, to me, I don't know

2947
01:45:41,710 --> 01:45:42,450
if this is an op.

2948
01:45:42,610 --> 01:45:43,450
I mean, you're right.

2949
01:45:43,530 --> 01:45:45,470
I agree with your premise that if this

2950
01:45:45,470 --> 01:45:47,430
was an op, we'd have a story.

2951
01:45:48,230 --> 01:45:50,790
All we have is this ice hockey player.

2952
01:45:51,310 --> 01:45:52,490
So there's no story.

2953
01:45:52,630 --> 01:45:53,830
There's no one to talk to.

2954
01:45:54,610 --> 01:45:56,170
There's no officials.

2955
01:45:56,390 --> 01:45:59,730
There's no intelligence officers on TV saying anything.

2956
01:46:00,470 --> 01:46:02,730
You got President Trump saying, hey man, if

2957
01:46:02,730 --> 01:46:04,310
you kill people, I'm going to step in.

2958
01:46:05,410 --> 01:46:08,210
And meanwhile, you have real economic problems.

2959
01:46:08,410 --> 01:46:08,690
You know what?

2960
01:46:08,730 --> 01:46:10,930
We need to airdrop some stablecoin on these

2961
01:46:10,930 --> 01:46:11,250
people.

2962
01:46:12,390 --> 01:46:14,090
That's always the answer.

2963
01:46:14,670 --> 01:46:16,490
We need to airdrop some stablecoin.

2964
01:46:17,130 --> 01:46:19,070
I do have a BBC.

2965
01:46:19,190 --> 01:46:21,170
So anyway, my point is, is that this

2966
01:46:21,170 --> 01:46:23,910
is going on one way or the other.

2967
01:46:24,730 --> 01:46:28,410
And it's, the media is so poor in

2968
01:46:28,410 --> 01:46:30,390
this country that we don't even, it's not

2969
01:46:30,390 --> 01:46:31,310
even an inkling.

2970
01:46:31,870 --> 01:46:33,950
No one's even touching it.

2971
01:46:34,310 --> 01:46:35,710
It's just beyond me.

2972
01:46:35,850 --> 01:46:38,030
I got two more short BBC reports.

2973
01:46:38,270 --> 01:46:39,690
So tell us more about these protests, which

2974
01:46:39,690 --> 01:46:41,370
have been going on for 10 days and

2975
01:46:41,370 --> 01:46:43,170
which seem, if anything, to be intensifying.

2976
01:46:43,290 --> 01:46:46,390
They're a big challenge to the Iranian rulers'

2977
01:46:46,610 --> 01:46:47,230
grip on power.

2978
01:46:47,650 --> 01:46:48,310
That's true.

2979
01:46:48,510 --> 01:46:52,390
We are definitely getting the picture of the

2980
01:46:52,390 --> 01:46:56,430
spate of unrest expanding rather than dying down.

2981
01:46:56,670 --> 01:46:59,710
Today, so far, we've got reports of unrest

2982
01:46:59,710 --> 01:47:02,210
from several cities, from the very top of

2983
01:47:02,210 --> 01:47:04,190
Iran to the bottom of Iran, from the

2984
01:47:04,190 --> 01:47:05,850
west to the middle of Iran.

2985
01:47:06,150 --> 01:47:08,570
And some of them are violent.

2986
01:47:08,750 --> 01:47:09,710
Violent by who?

2987
01:47:09,830 --> 01:47:14,030
Between the demonstrators and the security forces.

2988
01:47:14,610 --> 01:47:18,070
An interesting thing in this expansion of this

2989
01:47:18,070 --> 01:47:22,230
unrest in Iran is reaching smaller villages.

2990
01:47:22,230 --> 01:47:25,450
And this is what we witnessed during the

2991
01:47:25,450 --> 01:47:29,750
1979 revolution, that it had got to the

2992
01:47:29,750 --> 01:47:30,930
level of villages.

2993
01:47:31,270 --> 01:47:34,530
And today we're getting signs of that.

2994
01:47:34,790 --> 01:47:36,550
So yeah, it is deepening.

2995
01:47:37,030 --> 01:47:40,030
Now, also Venezuela plays into this.

2996
01:47:40,710 --> 01:47:42,150
You know, there has been a stop of

2997
01:47:42,150 --> 01:47:42,770
money flow.

2998
01:47:43,470 --> 01:47:44,710
And oil is money.

2999
01:47:44,830 --> 01:47:45,730
It's just pure money.

3000
01:47:45,830 --> 01:47:47,250
You can trade it for anything you want

3001
01:47:47,250 --> 01:47:48,190
anywhere in the world.

3002
01:47:49,270 --> 01:47:51,650
And, you know, that Venezuela may have been

3003
01:47:51,650 --> 01:47:53,390
more of a hub than we realized for

3004
01:47:53,390 --> 01:47:54,450
the Iranian regime.

3005
01:47:55,370 --> 01:47:57,070
And I still don't, I'd like someone to

3006
01:47:57,070 --> 01:48:01,350
explain to me why, you know, what has

3007
01:48:01,350 --> 01:48:02,290
happened to the real?

3008
01:48:02,530 --> 01:48:04,210
Is that purely money printing?

3009
01:48:04,890 --> 01:48:07,110
Because they only compare it to the dollar.

3010
01:48:07,930 --> 01:48:09,570
So what is going on?

3011
01:48:09,630 --> 01:48:10,490
What happened there?

3012
01:48:11,170 --> 01:48:13,310
That's the part that I don't understand.

3013
01:48:14,550 --> 01:48:17,090
But the economy is always money printing.

3014
01:48:17,530 --> 01:48:18,070
Yeah, okay.

3015
01:48:18,130 --> 01:48:20,210
So then they printed a whole bunch of

3016
01:48:20,210 --> 01:48:21,750
money trying to pacify everybody.

3017
01:48:21,790 --> 01:48:22,510
It didn't work.

3018
01:48:23,330 --> 01:48:25,350
It doesn't have to be an op.

3019
01:48:26,210 --> 01:48:27,430
It just doesn't have to be.

3020
01:48:27,530 --> 01:48:28,610
No, I agree.

3021
01:48:28,790 --> 01:48:31,890
It could, this could be an actual revolution,

3022
01:48:32,790 --> 01:48:40,490
a real grass roots revolution that's actually from

3023
01:48:40,490 --> 01:48:44,270
taking a sincere one that's not being run

3024
01:48:44,270 --> 01:48:47,130
by an intelligence agency, that's not being run

3025
01:48:47,130 --> 01:48:49,030
by us or the Russians or anybody else.

3026
01:48:49,030 --> 01:48:50,430
It could actually be genuine.

3027
01:48:50,970 --> 01:48:53,230
And then that makes it even worse to

3028
01:48:53,230 --> 01:48:56,290
me because you have a genuine situation taking

3029
01:48:56,290 --> 01:48:56,650
place.

3030
01:48:56,850 --> 01:48:59,430
That's in today's day 12.

3031
01:49:00,310 --> 01:49:03,670
And after 12 days, the mainstream media does

3032
01:49:03,670 --> 01:49:05,770
not cover a bit of it because it's

3033
01:49:05,770 --> 01:49:07,870
not being run by an intel agency.

3034
01:49:08,090 --> 01:49:10,450
So the mainstream media is only gonna cover

3035
01:49:10,450 --> 01:49:13,230
what they're told to cover by the CIA.

3036
01:49:13,690 --> 01:49:15,990
Is that what we're ending up with here?

3037
01:49:16,090 --> 01:49:17,550
Is that the conclusion I can draw?

3038
01:49:18,270 --> 01:49:19,430
Well, of course it is.

3039
01:49:22,010 --> 01:49:24,230
It's either about the midterms or it's an

3040
01:49:24,230 --> 01:49:24,490
op.

3041
01:49:26,580 --> 01:49:28,020
Why cover anything else?

3042
01:49:28,720 --> 01:49:30,560
And by the way, this does have an

3043
01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:34,940
application to the midterms because if Iran falls,

3044
01:49:35,140 --> 01:49:37,700
they'd be immediately friendly with the United States.

3045
01:49:37,960 --> 01:49:39,960
Trump would get credit for it because he

3046
01:49:39,960 --> 01:49:41,820
bombed the nuclear facilities.

3047
01:49:42,060 --> 01:49:45,960
Oh, and supposedly if you listen to this

3048
01:49:45,960 --> 01:49:48,860
guy, he's always referring to Trump.

3049
01:49:49,000 --> 01:49:52,200
He's doing Trump gags and he's doing Trump

3050
01:49:52,200 --> 01:49:55,520
voices and he's saying the public loves Trump

3051
01:49:55,520 --> 01:49:56,040
and Iran.

3052
01:49:56,260 --> 01:49:56,820
They love him.

3053
01:49:57,400 --> 01:49:59,640
I believe that to be true.

3054
01:49:59,940 --> 01:50:01,360
I believe it to be true too.

3055
01:50:01,440 --> 01:50:02,440
And I think it's the same thing in

3056
01:50:02,440 --> 01:50:02,840
Venezuela.

3057
01:50:03,440 --> 01:50:05,940
And so you have to downplay it to

3058
01:50:05,940 --> 01:50:08,580
a max because you don't need Trump getting

3059
01:50:08,580 --> 01:50:11,620
credit because we have the 2016 midterms coming

3060
01:50:11,620 --> 01:50:14,040
up and the Democrats might lose a seat.

3061
01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:16,380
And so that's the only thing I can

3062
01:50:16,380 --> 01:50:18,920
think of for suppressing this to an extreme.

3063
01:50:19,120 --> 01:50:20,740
Well, how about this?

3064
01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:23,500
Trump's NSS is working.

3065
01:50:23,880 --> 01:50:26,340
The national security strategy is working.

3066
01:50:27,860 --> 01:50:31,540
And this oil deal where we can set

3067
01:50:31,540 --> 01:50:33,780
the price, that is not gonna do any

3068
01:50:33,780 --> 01:50:35,600
favors for Iranian oil either.

3069
01:50:36,420 --> 01:50:37,720
Like, hey man, why should I go through

3070
01:50:37,720 --> 01:50:40,520
the hassle of getting it from you and

3071
01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:43,280
changing my transponder and shutting it off and

3072
01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:44,340
then just get it from Trump?

3073
01:50:46,640 --> 01:50:47,200
Seriously.

3074
01:50:48,120 --> 01:50:48,240
Yeah.

3075
01:50:48,520 --> 01:50:51,340
There is, luckily, there's an Israel angle from

3076
01:50:51,340 --> 01:50:51,820
the BBC.

3077
01:50:52,200 --> 01:50:54,900
As protests continue across Iran, a human rights

3078
01:50:54,900 --> 01:50:57,480
group says at least 36 people have been

3079
01:50:57,480 --> 01:50:59,840
killed during the past 10 days of demonstrations.

3080
01:51:00,500 --> 01:51:03,160
The human rights activist news agency says two

3081
01:51:03,160 --> 01:51:05,340
of them were affiliated with the security forces.

3082
01:51:05,700 --> 01:51:08,340
The unrest was sparked by an economic crisis

3083
01:51:08,340 --> 01:51:10,380
and has now spread to most of Iran's

3084
01:51:10,380 --> 01:51:10,900
provinces.

3085
01:51:11,610 --> 01:51:14,480
Meanwhile, officials say a man accused of spying

3086
01:51:14,480 --> 01:51:16,360
for Israel has been executed.

3087
01:51:17,240 --> 01:51:20,100
Kazra Naji of the BBC Persian service told

3088
01:51:20,100 --> 01:51:21,260
me more about him.

3089
01:51:22,020 --> 01:51:25,320
According to Iranian officials, his name is Ali

3090
01:51:25,320 --> 01:51:26,260
Ardestani.

3091
01:51:26,640 --> 01:51:29,420
The Iranian authorities are saying that he was

3092
01:51:29,420 --> 01:51:32,920
a key Mossad agent and that he was

3093
01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:38,080
passing on sensitive information to Israelis and photographing

3094
01:51:38,080 --> 01:51:39,600
particular places.

3095
01:51:40,350 --> 01:51:45,620
And gathering information about sensitive subjects in return

3096
01:51:45,620 --> 01:51:49,440
for a million dollar reward, according to the

3097
01:51:49,440 --> 01:51:55,820
Iranian authorities, in cryptocurrency and also rewarded with

3098
01:51:55,820 --> 01:51:57,240
a British visa.

3099
01:51:57,880 --> 01:52:00,600
We don't know anything more than that.

3100
01:52:00,740 --> 01:52:04,460
They haven't, by the way, connected this to

3101
01:52:04,460 --> 01:52:07,420
the present unrest in Iran.

3102
01:52:07,560 --> 01:52:08,060
Oh, they haven't?

3103
01:52:08,160 --> 01:52:08,820
They haven't.

3104
01:52:08,820 --> 01:52:11,660
But nonetheless, the message is clear.

3105
01:52:11,840 --> 01:52:14,880
And this man is probably the 12th or

3106
01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:19,720
13th person who's been executed vis-a-vis

3107
01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:24,260
Mossad and Israel on alleged spying for Israel

3108
01:52:24,260 --> 01:52:25,540
in the past six months.

3109
01:52:25,600 --> 01:52:26,140
Ah, luckily.

3110
01:52:26,360 --> 01:52:29,140
Luckily, the BBC can kind of insinuate the

3111
01:52:29,140 --> 01:52:29,840
Jews did it.

3112
01:52:30,080 --> 01:52:30,900
That's always good.

3113
01:52:32,500 --> 01:52:37,760
The thing that we're missing here is who

3114
01:52:37,760 --> 01:52:40,460
wants to fill the vacuum if the regime

3115
01:52:40,460 --> 01:52:41,620
really does fall.

3116
01:52:42,580 --> 01:52:46,580
And you've got that prince in London living

3117
01:52:46,580 --> 01:52:47,240
in exile.

3118
01:52:47,780 --> 01:52:51,660
And he's only doing YouTube and podcasts in

3119
01:52:51,660 --> 01:52:55,440
Farsi, which is another reason to believe it's

3120
01:52:55,440 --> 01:52:57,420
more real than an op because he's not

3121
01:52:57,420 --> 01:52:59,280
doing any English spoken podcasts.

3122
01:52:59,980 --> 01:53:01,280
It's all Farsi.

3123
01:53:01,580 --> 01:53:03,620
And he's going on for 10, 15 minutes.

3124
01:53:03,620 --> 01:53:05,540
And who knows what he's talking about?

3125
01:53:06,320 --> 01:53:09,080
Well, this has been discussed by this Tusi

3126
01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:10,760
guy, Tusi TV guy.

3127
01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:13,620
He's giving him orders.

3128
01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:16,000
He says, I think the latest one is

3129
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:19,580
you're supposed to all stop doing some bribery.

3130
01:53:19,820 --> 01:53:21,700
You're supposed to come out in a certain

3131
01:53:21,700 --> 01:53:22,840
time, a certain day.

3132
01:53:23,020 --> 01:53:24,780
Oh, the prince is doing that?

3133
01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:25,420
The crown prince?

3134
01:53:25,740 --> 01:53:27,260
Yeah, he's doing that, yeah.

3135
01:53:28,280 --> 01:53:30,020
He's telling him what to do.

3136
01:53:30,020 --> 01:53:33,780
And if you watch enough of this other

3137
01:53:33,780 --> 01:53:36,800
guy, there's a lot of chanting for him

3138
01:53:36,800 --> 01:53:40,680
to take over, which is suspicious.

3139
01:53:40,780 --> 01:53:42,660
But at this point, this guy, the prince

3140
01:53:42,660 --> 01:53:44,720
has got to be British intelligence.

3141
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:47,920
I mean, you don't live in London for

3142
01:53:47,920 --> 01:53:49,460
40 years.

3143
01:53:49,700 --> 01:53:50,900
Unless they've dropped the ball.

3144
01:53:52,180 --> 01:53:52,460
Wow.

3145
01:53:52,660 --> 01:53:54,660
Well, with that new MI6 lady, it wouldn't

3146
01:53:54,660 --> 01:53:55,280
surprise me.

3147
01:53:55,340 --> 01:53:56,800
She doesn't seem like she's very good.

3148
01:53:58,220 --> 01:54:00,040
It's possible they've dropped the ball on this

3149
01:54:00,040 --> 01:54:00,140
guy.

3150
01:54:00,140 --> 01:54:00,840
The Python lady.

3151
01:54:01,160 --> 01:54:02,980
Like, we want you all to learn to

3152
01:54:02,980 --> 01:54:03,660
code Python.

3153
01:54:04,940 --> 01:54:05,620
That lady.

3154
01:54:06,280 --> 01:54:07,480
Yeah, right.

3155
01:54:08,060 --> 01:54:09,820
Yeah, she's a dummy.

3156
01:54:12,220 --> 01:54:14,760
And then in the trifecta, or is it

3157
01:54:14,760 --> 01:54:17,360
quadfecta at this point, we have Colombia and

3158
01:54:17,360 --> 01:54:20,660
breaking news, President Petro had a little phone

3159
01:54:20,660 --> 01:54:23,240
call with President Trump and that changed everything

3160
01:54:23,240 --> 01:54:23,680
overnight.

3161
01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:26,980
Well, the thousands of supporters assembled on this

3162
01:54:26,980 --> 01:54:30,700
Simon Bolivar Square in central Bogota assisted to

3163
01:54:30,700 --> 01:54:34,120
a remarkable twist of events this evening as

3164
01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:38,800
President Petro stepped onto the stage, basically mumbled,

3165
01:54:39,300 --> 01:54:41,120
took some papers out of his pocket and

3166
01:54:41,120 --> 01:54:43,340
explained that he had just spoken to Donald

3167
01:54:43,340 --> 01:54:45,740
Trump on the phone, in the car as

3168
01:54:45,740 --> 01:54:47,420
he was driving to the event and that

3169
01:54:47,420 --> 01:54:50,140
he would have to change his whole speech.

3170
01:54:50,480 --> 01:54:53,380
Indeed, everybody was expecting a frontal attack against

3171
01:54:53,380 --> 01:54:54,280
the American president.

3172
01:54:54,620 --> 01:54:55,960
Well, in fact, he explained that he had

3173
01:54:55,960 --> 01:54:58,400
spoken for 15 minutes with him and that

3174
01:54:58,400 --> 01:55:01,200
both men had decided to meet in person

3175
01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:05,280
with President Petro, inviting Donald Trump here in

3176
01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:07,940
Colombia and Donald Trump inviting him to the

3177
01:55:07,940 --> 01:55:08,360
White House.

3178
01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:10,580
Donald Trump later confirmed that, indeed, he had

3179
01:55:10,580 --> 01:55:14,140
charged Marco Rubio of organizing the meeting in

3180
01:55:14,140 --> 01:55:15,780
a close future.

3181
01:55:16,280 --> 01:55:18,680
President Petro also explained that he'd spoken with

3182
01:55:18,680 --> 01:55:19,060
Del C.

3183
01:55:19,180 --> 01:55:21,620
Rodriguez, the new leader of Venezuela, saying that,

3184
01:55:21,960 --> 01:55:23,580
there as well, he would like to organize

3185
01:55:23,580 --> 01:55:26,960
meetings, trilateral meetings, with the United States.

3186
01:55:27,060 --> 01:55:30,200
So, indeed, it was a complete shift in

3187
01:55:30,200 --> 01:55:32,500
the whole paradigm of this crisis.

3188
01:55:32,900 --> 01:55:33,100
Paradigm.

3189
01:55:33,220 --> 01:55:37,060
Indeed, President Petro saying there would be a

3190
01:55:37,060 --> 01:55:39,120
complete change when it comes to the relationship

3191
01:55:39,120 --> 01:55:39,660
with...

3192
01:55:39,660 --> 01:55:41,100
The guy said paradigm.

3193
01:55:42,080 --> 01:55:44,460
For paradigm is the word he's looking for.

3194
01:55:44,860 --> 01:55:47,640
He would like to organize meetings, trilateral meetings,

3195
01:55:47,800 --> 01:55:49,520
with the United States.

3196
01:55:49,520 --> 01:55:52,780
So, indeed, it was a complete shift in

3197
01:55:52,780 --> 01:55:55,060
the whole paradigm of this crisis.

3198
01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:55,360
Paradigm.

3199
01:55:55,520 --> 01:55:59,240
Indeed, President Petro saying that there would be

3200
01:55:59,240 --> 01:56:01,180
a complete change when it comes to the

3201
01:56:01,180 --> 01:56:04,260
relationship with the United States, that the canal

3202
01:56:04,260 --> 01:56:08,060
had been reopened and, indeed, solutions could be

3203
01:56:08,060 --> 01:56:08,380
found.

3204
01:56:08,720 --> 01:56:10,340
So, I wonder how that phone call went.

3205
01:56:10,500 --> 01:56:13,140
Hey, did you see Maduro?

3206
01:56:13,960 --> 01:56:16,280
Would you like a nice ride or would

3207
01:56:16,280 --> 01:56:17,240
you like a not nice ride?

3208
01:56:17,240 --> 01:56:18,380
I really don't think so.

3209
01:56:18,380 --> 01:56:20,400
I think there's other...

3210
01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:22,400
And Rubio's the main guy.

3211
01:56:22,540 --> 01:56:24,200
I mean, when they picked Rubio, I said

3212
01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:25,100
it right at the outset.

3213
01:56:25,140 --> 01:56:25,940
You nailed it.

3214
01:56:26,020 --> 01:56:27,220
You nailed the whole hemisphere.

3215
01:56:27,380 --> 01:56:31,120
You actually front ran the down road doctrine.

3216
01:56:31,980 --> 01:56:32,380
I did.

3217
01:56:32,520 --> 01:56:32,840
You did.

3218
01:56:33,000 --> 01:56:34,300
And that's because...

3219
01:56:34,300 --> 01:56:35,640
Hold on, hold on, hold on.

3220
01:56:36,260 --> 01:56:37,800
I want you to take that for a

3221
01:56:37,800 --> 01:56:41,980
second and do a little victory lap, because

3222
01:56:41,980 --> 01:56:43,400
I'm going to give it to you.

3223
01:56:43,660 --> 01:56:46,060
You called that months in advance.

3224
01:56:46,060 --> 01:56:48,320
You said Rubio's the guy.

3225
01:56:48,500 --> 01:56:51,070
It's going to be north-south and that...

3226
01:56:55,400 --> 01:56:57,920
Another reason people should be listening to the

3227
01:56:57,920 --> 01:57:00,340
No Agenda show, because we are months ahead

3228
01:57:00,340 --> 01:57:01,100
of this stuff.

3229
01:57:01,240 --> 01:57:01,920
You nailed it.

3230
01:57:01,980 --> 01:57:02,120
Months.

3231
01:57:02,140 --> 01:57:02,620
You nailed it.

3232
01:57:02,920 --> 01:57:03,340
A year almost.

3233
01:57:03,580 --> 01:57:08,540
Because Rubio is fluent in Spanish, obviously, and

3234
01:57:08,540 --> 01:57:14,400
he's not Spanish-Spanish, but Western Hemisphere Spanish,

3235
01:57:14,500 --> 01:57:15,360
which is different.

3236
01:57:16,260 --> 01:57:19,640
And he can talk to these guys directly

3237
01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:23,100
and emphatically with probably a fabulous vocabulary.

3238
01:57:24,120 --> 01:57:25,480
And he is the guy that was probably

3239
01:57:25,480 --> 01:57:27,940
doing the translation between Trump, Rubio, and the

3240
01:57:27,940 --> 01:57:30,080
guy, because Rubio was involved.

3241
01:57:30,480 --> 01:57:32,080
This Rubio is the guy.

3242
01:57:32,220 --> 01:57:34,500
He's doing the job here to take care

3243
01:57:34,500 --> 01:57:35,000
of these things.

3244
01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:36,600
And I don't think there's threats going on.

3245
01:57:36,700 --> 01:57:39,000
I think it's just after the Maduro thing,

3246
01:57:39,020 --> 01:57:40,060
it's all going to be a lot of

3247
01:57:40,060 --> 01:57:40,440
agreeing.

3248
01:57:41,160 --> 01:57:42,800
And I think Rubio can sell it.

3249
01:57:42,820 --> 01:57:45,040
I think Rubio's learned from Trump, if nothing

3250
01:57:45,040 --> 01:57:48,160
else, how to sell better than he used

3251
01:57:48,160 --> 01:57:48,340
to.

3252
01:57:48,420 --> 01:57:50,000
He was always, you know, had to have

3253
01:57:50,000 --> 01:57:51,780
some chops, but now he knows what he's

3254
01:57:51,780 --> 01:57:52,100
doing.

3255
01:57:52,820 --> 01:57:54,860
So now that we've seen the national security

3256
01:57:54,860 --> 01:57:57,740
strategy unfold, someone actually gave me a good

3257
01:57:57,740 --> 01:57:58,180
idea.

3258
01:57:58,340 --> 01:58:01,380
One of our producers said, hey man, you

3259
01:58:01,380 --> 01:58:06,160
should do a comparison between the national security

3260
01:58:06,160 --> 01:58:09,140
strategy and the project for a new American

3261
01:58:09,140 --> 01:58:10,040
century.

3262
01:58:11,400 --> 01:58:12,880
Which I thought was a good idea.

3263
01:58:13,560 --> 01:58:17,000
And indeed, if you see, there's a lot

3264
01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:18,200
of commonalities.

3265
01:58:19,660 --> 01:58:24,300
Space dominance, global missile defense versus the Golden

3266
01:58:24,300 --> 01:58:29,860
Dome, peace through strength, military spending, which by

3267
01:58:29,860 --> 01:58:30,980
the way, I don't know if you caught

3268
01:58:30,980 --> 01:58:31,440
this.

3269
01:58:32,040 --> 01:58:33,440
This was crazy.

3270
01:58:33,620 --> 01:58:34,000
Let me see.

3271
01:58:34,100 --> 01:58:34,440
Here it is.

3272
01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:35,240
Listen to this.

3273
01:58:35,240 --> 01:58:37,700
The US president made the announcement on Wednesday

3274
01:58:37,700 --> 01:58:38,880
on social media.

3275
01:58:39,080 --> 01:58:41,760
He wants to increase defense spending to $1

3276
01:58:41,760 --> 01:58:45,020
.5 trillion in 2027.

3277
01:58:45,300 --> 01:58:47,920
He wants to build a, quote, dream military

3278
01:58:47,920 --> 01:58:50,680
and pointing to the unstable geopolitical landscape as

3279
01:58:50,680 --> 01:58:51,140
motivation.

3280
01:58:51,320 --> 01:58:54,520
The spending allocated in this year's budget is

3281
01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:59,000
at $901 billion and basically was at that

3282
01:58:59,000 --> 01:59:02,540
level over the $900 billion mark for the

3283
01:59:02,540 --> 01:59:04,840
previous four years, as you can see on

3284
01:59:04,840 --> 01:59:06,260
that graph.

3285
01:59:06,440 --> 01:59:09,660
This has led to major US defense stocks

3286
01:59:09,660 --> 01:59:13,860
like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon rising

3287
01:59:13,860 --> 01:59:16,460
in extended trading in New York after the

3288
01:59:16,460 --> 01:59:16,900
announcement.

3289
01:59:17,180 --> 01:59:19,520
But Trump did set conditions on these groups

3290
01:59:19,520 --> 01:59:22,260
in a separate post, vowing to force these

3291
01:59:22,260 --> 01:59:25,180
companies to speed up arms deliveries and to

3292
01:59:25,180 --> 01:59:28,940
build new manufacturing plants by cracking down on

3293
01:59:28,940 --> 01:59:31,680
payouts to shareholders and executives.

3294
01:59:31,880 --> 01:59:35,080
He singled out Raytheon for criticism, saying, quote,

3295
01:59:35,240 --> 01:59:38,000
either Raytheon steps up and starts investing in

3296
01:59:38,000 --> 01:59:41,140
more upfront investment like plants and equipment, or

3297
01:59:41,140 --> 01:59:43,440
they will no longer be doing business with

3298
01:59:43,440 --> 01:59:44,760
the Department of War.

3299
01:59:45,520 --> 01:59:47,860
That didn't get a lot of play, interestingly

3300
01:59:47,860 --> 01:59:48,320
enough.

3301
01:59:48,740 --> 01:59:50,040
No, I didn't hear that either.

3302
01:59:50,380 --> 01:59:51,960
That is so, hey.

3303
01:59:52,040 --> 01:59:54,520
Well, I did hear about Trump bitching and

3304
01:59:54,520 --> 01:59:56,380
moaning about stock buybacks.

3305
01:59:56,540 --> 01:59:58,080
No, we played that a couple of shows

3306
01:59:58,080 --> 01:59:58,400
ago.

3307
01:59:58,400 --> 02:00:00,340
But I didn't hear about the increase into

3308
02:00:00,340 --> 02:00:01,540
1.5 trillion.

3309
02:00:01,780 --> 02:00:02,480
Well, I never heard that.

3310
02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:04,140
But I never heard the threat to Raytheon

3311
02:00:04,140 --> 02:00:05,080
either, which is funny.

3312
02:00:05,260 --> 02:00:05,700
I love that.

3313
02:00:05,820 --> 02:00:06,500
I love that.

3314
02:00:06,620 --> 02:00:08,600
What he's saying is we need an economy.

3315
02:00:08,760 --> 02:00:09,880
We need factories.

3316
02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:10,760
We need people.

3317
02:00:10,840 --> 02:00:13,900
And that means jobs for engineers, jobs for

3318
02:00:13,900 --> 02:00:16,000
lawyers, jobs for marketers.

3319
02:00:17,180 --> 02:00:20,440
Good paying unions, good paying military jobs.

3320
02:00:21,480 --> 02:00:24,900
It's, you know, that's, forget the...

3321
02:00:25,500 --> 02:00:26,880
You know what they should also pay for?

3322
02:00:26,980 --> 02:00:27,780
They should pay for?

3323
02:00:29,120 --> 02:00:30,360
Auditing the Pentagon.

3324
02:00:31,740 --> 02:00:32,060
Yeah.

3325
02:00:32,280 --> 02:00:34,640
Let's face it, 1.5 trillion is going

3326
02:00:34,640 --> 02:00:35,080
to be...

3327
02:00:35,080 --> 02:00:37,160
Half of that's going to be a scam,

3328
02:00:37,340 --> 02:00:38,980
a fraud, a ripoff.

3329
02:00:39,540 --> 02:00:40,560
You know, there's no doubt about it.

3330
02:00:40,560 --> 02:00:44,560
Well, remember, remember that Hedgeseth announced a whole

3331
02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:46,360
new procurement system.

3332
02:00:47,540 --> 02:00:49,100
So I don't think we're ever going to

3333
02:00:49,100 --> 02:00:50,620
audit retroactively.

3334
02:00:51,160 --> 02:00:53,560
But I have a feeling that going forward,

3335
02:00:53,680 --> 02:00:55,260
there's going to be a lot more accountability

3336
02:00:55,260 --> 02:00:56,980
for how the money is spent.

3337
02:00:56,980 --> 02:00:59,220
Because that's all that Trump is whining about.

3338
02:00:59,620 --> 02:01:01,420
And it's like, hey, you're taking too long

3339
02:01:01,420 --> 02:01:01,960
to build it.

3340
02:01:02,020 --> 02:01:03,200
You've got overruns.

3341
02:01:03,260 --> 02:01:04,860
You're doing stock buybacks.

3342
02:01:05,180 --> 02:01:05,400
No.

3343
02:01:05,700 --> 02:01:06,440
You want money?

3344
02:01:06,660 --> 02:01:07,660
You got to do it right.

3345
02:01:08,220 --> 02:01:09,740
So no, we're not going to...

3346
02:01:09,740 --> 02:01:11,580
There's never going to be an accounting for

3347
02:01:11,580 --> 02:01:13,120
all the stolen money in the past.

3348
02:01:13,540 --> 02:01:15,400
But it seems like there's going to be

3349
02:01:15,400 --> 02:01:16,920
some accountability moving forward.

3350
02:01:16,960 --> 02:01:18,460
And it's going to benefit America.

3351
02:01:18,760 --> 02:01:19,760
Oh, no.

3352
02:01:20,420 --> 02:01:21,300
America first.

3353
02:01:21,600 --> 02:01:22,420
Oh, no.

3354
02:01:23,600 --> 02:01:24,740
It could happen.

3355
02:01:25,620 --> 02:01:26,100
No.

3356
02:01:27,260 --> 02:01:28,140
And this other...

3357
02:01:28,140 --> 02:01:29,480
You know, I get a lot of notes

3358
02:01:29,480 --> 02:01:32,480
after doing our Zoomer versus Boomer segment.

3359
02:01:34,100 --> 02:01:36,260
And people always come back to the same

3360
02:01:36,260 --> 02:01:36,580
thing.

3361
02:01:36,820 --> 02:01:40,220
It's always, how come we're helping the people

3362
02:01:40,220 --> 02:01:41,900
of Venezuela, but we're poor?

3363
02:01:42,180 --> 02:01:44,400
And I go into dialogue, and it always

3364
02:01:44,400 --> 02:01:45,580
comes down to the same thing.

3365
02:01:45,940 --> 02:01:47,640
I can't afford to buy a house.

3366
02:01:48,060 --> 02:01:51,100
My dad bought a house for $16 in

3367
02:01:51,100 --> 02:01:52,100
1922.

3368
02:01:53,540 --> 02:01:55,500
$16 and 50 cents.

3369
02:01:55,540 --> 02:01:56,700
From the Sears catalog.

3370
02:01:57,560 --> 02:02:00,380
And this is interesting because this is something

3371
02:02:00,380 --> 02:02:01,740
the former New York banker said.

3372
02:02:01,840 --> 02:02:02,860
That's not happening.

3373
02:02:03,220 --> 02:02:04,240
That's not happening.

3374
02:02:04,940 --> 02:02:08,180
President Trump now announces he is immediately taking

3375
02:02:08,180 --> 02:02:10,900
steps to ban large institutional investors.

3376
02:02:11,060 --> 02:02:12,020
Yes, I saw that.

3377
02:02:12,460 --> 02:02:14,260
Blackstone from buying single family homes.

3378
02:02:14,520 --> 02:02:16,340
Blackstone and BlackRock both.

3379
02:02:16,460 --> 02:02:17,080
And I'm...

3380
02:02:17,080 --> 02:02:19,200
That's what John buys barrier houses.

3381
02:02:19,200 --> 02:02:20,800
You always see these things in the local

3382
02:02:20,800 --> 02:02:22,160
papers around here.

3383
02:02:22,340 --> 02:02:23,980
Or the TV says this.

3384
02:02:24,360 --> 02:02:26,740
Hey, Bill and Jim, we'll buy your house

3385
02:02:26,740 --> 02:02:27,980
unlooked at.

3386
02:02:28,060 --> 02:02:29,240
We'll just give you the money.

3387
02:02:29,640 --> 02:02:31,100
And I get phone calls.

3388
02:02:31,300 --> 02:02:32,660
I get two or three phone calls a

3389
02:02:32,660 --> 02:02:32,940
month.

3390
02:02:33,120 --> 02:02:33,400
Wow.

3391
02:02:33,660 --> 02:02:33,880
Yeah.

3392
02:02:34,180 --> 02:02:36,540
I'd say, because I own my mom's old

3393
02:02:36,540 --> 02:02:36,840
house.

3394
02:02:36,900 --> 02:02:38,200
They keep asking if I want to sell

3395
02:02:38,200 --> 02:02:38,320
it.

3396
02:02:38,360 --> 02:02:39,300
They ask me if I want to sell

3397
02:02:39,300 --> 02:02:39,780
this house.

3398
02:02:39,920 --> 02:02:41,120
We'll give you cash.

3399
02:02:41,500 --> 02:02:42,660
Just tell us what you want.

3400
02:02:43,360 --> 02:02:45,400
And they are paying top dollar.

3401
02:02:46,240 --> 02:02:47,560
Well, that's going to be over.

3402
02:02:48,360 --> 02:02:49,040
Yeah, good.

3403
02:02:49,200 --> 02:02:51,660
I have a feeling he might even force

3404
02:02:51,660 --> 02:02:52,240
them to sell.

3405
02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:53,960
He's going to Congress.

3406
02:02:54,180 --> 02:02:57,000
His post says, I will be calling on

3407
02:02:57,000 --> 02:02:58,480
Congress to codify it.

3408
02:02:58,880 --> 02:03:00,640
People live in homes, not corporations.

3409
02:03:01,100 --> 02:03:04,000
I will discuss this topic, including further housing

3410
02:03:04,000 --> 02:03:06,500
and affordability proposals, and more of my speech

3411
02:03:06,500 --> 02:03:08,780
in Davos in two weeks.

3412
02:03:08,880 --> 02:03:10,300
He's going to Davos?

3413
02:03:11,860 --> 02:03:12,140
Holy...

3414
02:03:12,140 --> 02:03:12,800
That's interesting.

3415
02:03:13,000 --> 02:03:13,560
Holy...

3416
02:03:13,560 --> 02:03:15,980
Well, it's interesting in light of...

3417
02:03:15,980 --> 02:03:16,660
Hold on a second.

3418
02:03:17,540 --> 02:03:18,780
Where do I have it here?

3419
02:03:21,240 --> 02:03:22,600
Um, this...

3420
02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:23,180
Let me see.

3421
02:03:27,450 --> 02:03:28,130
Withdraw.

3422
02:03:28,470 --> 02:03:29,070
Here it is.

3423
02:03:29,730 --> 02:03:32,410
This is a crappy report because, of course,

3424
02:03:32,470 --> 02:03:35,430
it was impossible to get any good mainstream

3425
02:03:35,430 --> 02:03:36,470
reporting on it.

3426
02:03:36,750 --> 02:03:38,150
But this just happened.

3427
02:03:38,350 --> 02:03:41,070
President Trump announced the United States will withdraw

3428
02:03:41,070 --> 02:03:44,570
from 66 international organizations and treaties.

3429
02:03:45,050 --> 02:03:47,590
This includes major bodies like the United Nations

3430
02:03:47,590 --> 02:03:50,830
Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Intergovernmental

3431
02:03:50,830 --> 02:03:52,390
Panel on Climate Change.

3432
02:03:53,270 --> 02:03:56,250
The decision follows a review by Secretary of

3433
02:03:56,250 --> 02:03:59,590
State Marco Rubio, citing these groups as contrary

3434
02:03:59,590 --> 02:04:00,790
to U.S. interests.

3435
02:04:01,110 --> 02:04:03,450
Critics warn the move could hurt American companies

3436
02:04:03,450 --> 02:04:06,150
and communities by sidelining the country in the

3437
02:04:06,150 --> 02:04:07,730
booming clean energy sector.

3438
02:04:08,390 --> 02:04:10,610
Supporters argue it will stop U.S. funding

3439
02:04:10,610 --> 02:04:13,210
for what they call ineffective global agendas.

3440
02:04:13,790 --> 02:04:16,650
The withdrawal marks a historic shift, leaving the

3441
02:04:16,650 --> 02:04:18,750
U.S. as the only nation outside key

3442
02:04:18,750 --> 02:04:19,630
climate treaties.

3443
02:04:20,270 --> 02:04:20,790
66.

3444
02:04:21,370 --> 02:04:23,730
They haven't published the executive order yet, I

3445
02:04:23,730 --> 02:04:24,010
looked.

3446
02:04:25,250 --> 02:04:28,630
But that's a lot of international things you're

3447
02:04:28,630 --> 02:04:28,890
leaving.

3448
02:04:29,010 --> 02:04:29,470
Yes, it is.

3449
02:04:29,510 --> 02:04:31,450
And then to go to Davos and then

3450
02:04:31,450 --> 02:04:32,950
rub it in everybody's face.

3451
02:04:33,210 --> 02:04:35,150
This is going to be an interesting Davo.

3452
02:04:36,450 --> 02:04:37,190
What do you think?

3453
02:04:37,790 --> 02:04:39,490
What will the hooker price be this year?

3454
02:04:39,490 --> 02:04:41,330
I would say you bring extra security.

3455
02:04:41,990 --> 02:04:43,330
Probably a good idea.

3456
02:04:44,150 --> 02:04:46,550
Speaking of security, I want to thank you

3457
02:04:46,550 --> 02:04:47,230
for your courage.

3458
02:04:47,370 --> 02:04:48,410
Hey, in the morning to you, the man

3459
02:04:48,410 --> 02:04:49,970
who put the C in the I.C

3460
02:04:49,970 --> 02:04:51,490
.E. Say hello to my friend on the

3461
02:04:51,490 --> 02:04:51,910
other end.

3462
02:04:51,990 --> 02:04:54,870
The one, the only, Mr. John C.

3463
02:04:55,270 --> 02:04:55,590
DeMaria.

3464
02:04:59,570 --> 02:05:01,090
Hey, in the morning to you, Mr. Adam

3465
02:05:01,090 --> 02:05:01,270
Curry.

3466
02:05:01,370 --> 02:05:02,590
In the morning, I'll ship seaboats in the

3467
02:05:02,590 --> 02:05:03,750
ground, feed in the air, subs in the

3468
02:05:03,750 --> 02:05:05,090
water, and the dames and knights out there.

3469
02:05:05,230 --> 02:05:06,810
In the morning to the trolls in the

3470
02:05:06,810 --> 02:05:07,390
troll room.

3471
02:05:07,490 --> 02:05:08,270
Hold on a second.

3472
02:05:08,410 --> 02:05:09,010
Don't move.

3473
02:05:09,130 --> 02:05:10,250
Get out from under that bridge.

3474
02:05:11,510 --> 02:05:15,990
Okay, all right.

3475
02:05:16,610 --> 02:05:18,430
People are still interested in what we have

3476
02:05:18,430 --> 02:05:18,810
to say.

3477
02:05:19,350 --> 02:05:21,410
1621 today on the troll counter.

3478
02:05:21,490 --> 02:05:23,730
If you're listening live, because they want to

3479
02:05:23,730 --> 02:05:25,590
know what the boys have to say.

3480
02:05:25,830 --> 02:05:28,810
I heard Darren and Larry, they're talking about

3481
02:05:28,810 --> 02:05:29,070
us.

3482
02:05:29,850 --> 02:05:30,790
You know, you know.

3483
02:05:31,090 --> 02:05:31,550
You know what, Max?

3484
02:05:32,090 --> 02:05:32,550
What's that?

3485
02:05:33,030 --> 02:05:35,150
I just noticed that Darren didn't have a

3486
02:05:35,150 --> 02:05:36,990
Pogues medley on today's show.

3487
02:05:37,550 --> 02:05:39,930
They're so convinced that they are the heirs

3488
02:05:39,930 --> 02:05:40,710
to this show.

3489
02:05:41,510 --> 02:05:43,350
And I want them to keep thinking that.

3490
02:05:43,450 --> 02:05:44,650
I think that's a very good idea.

3491
02:05:45,010 --> 02:05:47,570
It's called the licensing deal, and we're open

3492
02:05:47,570 --> 02:05:48,130
for conversation.

3493
02:05:48,390 --> 02:05:49,270
Yeah, we'll do the deal.

3494
02:05:49,470 --> 02:05:51,870
We can do a 99-year licensing deal

3495
02:05:51,870 --> 02:05:53,250
with Planet Rage.

3496
02:05:55,830 --> 02:05:56,910
It would be funny.

3497
02:05:57,910 --> 02:05:58,950
They're an interesting team.

3498
02:05:59,210 --> 02:06:00,310
They're an interesting team.

3499
02:06:00,350 --> 02:06:01,490
I do like listening to them.

3500
02:06:03,050 --> 02:06:05,830
So yeah, that's the trolls checking in.

3501
02:06:05,830 --> 02:06:08,590
And of course, you can also troll along

3502
02:06:08,590 --> 02:06:10,490
in the troll room, which is known as

3503
02:06:10,490 --> 02:06:11,450
stream.com.

3504
02:06:11,530 --> 02:06:12,590
It's an IRC chat.

3505
02:06:12,670 --> 02:06:13,330
It's very simple.

3506
02:06:13,470 --> 02:06:14,010
It's ephemeral.

3507
02:06:14,290 --> 02:06:16,050
You yell, you rant, you rave, and it

3508
02:06:16,050 --> 02:06:17,850
just scrolls off, and no one hears about

3509
02:06:17,850 --> 02:06:18,270
it anymore.

3510
02:06:18,390 --> 02:06:20,110
So it's much better than social media, and

3511
02:06:20,110 --> 02:06:21,570
it's better for your health.

3512
02:06:22,010 --> 02:06:23,470
Much better for your health.

3513
02:06:23,750 --> 02:06:24,390
I was going to...

3514
02:06:24,390 --> 02:06:25,610
Was there something I wanted to...

3515
02:06:26,810 --> 02:06:29,950
I was thinking, was there some M5M bonus

3516
02:06:29,950 --> 02:06:30,310
clip?

3517
02:06:30,670 --> 02:06:31,170
Oh, yeah.

3518
02:06:32,170 --> 02:06:32,510
Yeah.

3519
02:06:32,510 --> 02:06:35,810
You know, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting shutdown?

3520
02:06:36,690 --> 02:06:38,050
Yeah, I know.

3521
02:06:38,290 --> 02:06:40,070
When they decided to shut down, they're still

3522
02:06:40,070 --> 02:06:41,410
kind of shutting down.

3523
02:06:41,490 --> 02:06:42,950
Well, whatever they're doing.

3524
02:06:43,070 --> 02:06:46,830
So I have this clip from WNIN Evansville,

3525
02:06:46,930 --> 02:06:47,250
Indiana.

3526
02:06:47,890 --> 02:06:50,210
Before you play it, I want to reiterate

3527
02:06:50,210 --> 02:06:52,930
the fact that that woman who's running NPR

3528
02:06:52,930 --> 02:06:56,190
and has association with Wiki and the rest

3529
02:06:56,190 --> 02:06:56,730
of that...

3530
02:06:56,730 --> 02:06:57,550
I can't remember her name.

3531
02:06:57,570 --> 02:06:58,910
Marr or whatever her name is.

3532
02:06:58,950 --> 02:06:59,510
Yeah, the...

3533
02:07:01,090 --> 02:07:01,590
Yes, that girl.

3534
02:07:01,790 --> 02:07:02,250
Blondie.

3535
02:07:02,510 --> 02:07:03,390
She's the...

3536
02:07:03,390 --> 02:07:08,350
She said that the public sponsorship, the public,

3537
02:07:08,470 --> 02:07:11,990
the taxpayer money that goes into NPR amounts

3538
02:07:11,990 --> 02:07:13,310
to 1%.

3539
02:07:14,370 --> 02:07:15,090
1%.

3540
02:07:15,090 --> 02:07:17,910
Well, that 1% is ruining the business

3541
02:07:17,910 --> 02:07:21,430
of WNIN in Evansville, Indiana, who are a

3542
02:07:21,430 --> 02:07:24,930
PBS affiliate as well as an NPR affiliate.

3543
02:07:25,230 --> 02:07:27,910
And they did a little statement about this.

3544
02:07:28,110 --> 02:07:31,370
And, well, I can predict what's going to

3545
02:07:31,370 --> 02:07:31,650
happen.

3546
02:07:31,650 --> 02:07:32,910
The end of an era.

3547
02:07:33,090 --> 02:07:35,790
After 58 years of service, the Corporation for

3548
02:07:35,790 --> 02:07:38,070
Public Broadcasting is closing its doors.

3549
02:07:38,490 --> 02:07:40,530
The organization voted today to dissolve.

3550
02:07:40,890 --> 02:07:42,930
It has been operating since 1967.

3551
02:07:43,690 --> 02:07:46,250
Over the past six months, public broadcasting station

3552
02:07:46,250 --> 02:07:49,310
WNIN in Evansville has faced federal and state

3553
02:07:49,310 --> 02:07:50,170
funding cuts.

3554
02:07:50,650 --> 02:07:52,670
Station leaders tell us the decision is just

3555
02:07:52,670 --> 02:07:53,430
a formality.

3556
02:07:53,830 --> 02:07:55,730
He tells us not much of the station's

3557
02:07:55,730 --> 02:07:57,850
operations is expected to change.

3558
02:07:57,850 --> 02:08:01,050
What our supporters see and hear is not

3559
02:08:01,050 --> 02:08:02,210
going to change a whole lot.

3560
02:08:02,710 --> 02:08:04,530
We're going to continue to focus on what

3561
02:08:04,530 --> 02:08:06,190
our mission has always been.

3562
02:08:06,650 --> 02:08:09,390
Internally, it probably is going to mean somewhat

3563
02:08:09,390 --> 02:08:10,670
of a different business model.

3564
02:08:10,970 --> 02:08:12,810
Not exactly sure what that's going to look

3565
02:08:12,810 --> 02:08:13,710
like at this point.

3566
02:08:13,870 --> 02:08:16,730
But certainly, because we can't depend upon a

3567
02:08:16,730 --> 02:08:18,870
lot of funding from the federal government, we're

3568
02:08:18,870 --> 02:08:20,070
going to have to find other ways of

3569
02:08:20,070 --> 02:08:21,110
generating that revenue.

3570
02:08:21,990 --> 02:08:24,410
Virgil, the content will remain the same with

3571
02:08:24,410 --> 02:08:27,070
only behind-the-scenes changes as the station

3572
02:08:27,070 --> 02:08:29,250
looks to find new ways to do business.

3573
02:08:29,370 --> 02:08:29,630
Yeah.

3574
02:08:30,190 --> 02:08:30,790
Ads.

3575
02:08:31,270 --> 02:08:31,730
Yep.

3576
02:08:32,250 --> 02:08:33,670
Code Bongino.

3577
02:08:34,610 --> 02:08:36,110
Yeah, ads for pharma.

3578
02:08:36,730 --> 02:08:36,830
Ads.

3579
02:08:36,930 --> 02:08:38,370
Yes, ads are coming.

3580
02:08:38,470 --> 02:08:40,610
And maybe they'll throw in some Archerdale Midlands.

3581
02:08:40,970 --> 02:08:42,890
By the way, another big commodity trader.

3582
02:08:44,010 --> 02:08:45,450
They'll throw that in there.

3583
02:08:46,050 --> 02:08:47,690
So yeah, ads are coming.

3584
02:08:48,390 --> 02:08:53,410
And it's a death spiral, particularly the dynamically

3585
02:08:53,410 --> 02:08:54,530
inserted ads.

3586
02:08:54,530 --> 02:08:56,950
Oh man, the podcast industrial complex has just

3587
02:08:56,950 --> 02:08:58,050
gone crazy about it.

3588
02:08:58,050 --> 02:09:00,870
Because people are now starting to complain to

3589
02:09:00,870 --> 02:09:04,710
such a degree that there's ad-blocking podcast

3590
02:09:04,710 --> 02:09:08,190
apps and ad-blocking companies popping up everywhere.

3591
02:09:08,450 --> 02:09:08,550
Oh, good.

3592
02:09:08,710 --> 02:09:09,070
Yes.

3593
02:09:09,890 --> 02:09:11,810
I think it's a great idea.

3594
02:09:12,490 --> 02:09:13,910
I mean, I don't think the way they're

3595
02:09:13,910 --> 02:09:16,050
doing it is great because they're, in essence,

3596
02:09:16,290 --> 02:09:18,330
copying the file and selling it for $1

3597
02:09:18,330 --> 02:09:21,170
.25. It's not exactly the way it should

3598
02:09:21,170 --> 02:09:21,410
work.

3599
02:09:21,470 --> 02:09:22,890
That's kind of theft in a way.

3600
02:09:22,890 --> 02:09:25,330
But people are sick of the ads.

3601
02:09:25,970 --> 02:09:28,250
And it's rampant everywhere.

3602
02:09:29,570 --> 02:09:32,750
Because whenever you do a dynamically inserted ads,

3603
02:09:33,050 --> 02:09:35,110
there is an unlimited inventory.

3604
02:09:35,690 --> 02:09:36,610
It's unlimited.

3605
02:09:37,250 --> 02:09:39,710
So the CPM, the cost per thousand, just

3606
02:09:39,710 --> 02:09:41,290
goes down and down and down and down,

3607
02:09:41,350 --> 02:09:42,490
which means you have to have more and

3608
02:09:42,490 --> 02:09:43,370
more and more ads.

3609
02:09:44,090 --> 02:09:45,790
And it just becomes unlistenable.

3610
02:09:46,390 --> 02:09:47,950
We're not going down that route.

3611
02:09:48,350 --> 02:09:50,950
We also, we never have, we're not going

3612
02:09:50,950 --> 02:09:52,010
to do subscriptions.

3613
02:09:52,570 --> 02:09:54,770
Oh, my, how many subscriptions can you afford?

3614
02:09:56,090 --> 02:09:57,550
That's the first thing to go.

3615
02:09:58,250 --> 02:10:00,410
Well, you know, I subscribed to Pivot.

3616
02:10:01,190 --> 02:10:04,470
But, you know, it's like, I just, I

3617
02:10:04,470 --> 02:10:06,230
should probably just watch the clips on YouTube

3618
02:10:06,230 --> 02:10:06,890
for free.

3619
02:10:08,330 --> 02:10:09,610
That's what's going on.

3620
02:10:10,250 --> 02:10:12,190
No, instead, we said, we would like to

3621
02:10:12,190 --> 02:10:12,970
have longevity.

3622
02:10:14,130 --> 02:10:16,710
A friend of mine pulled episode number one.

3623
02:10:17,930 --> 02:10:22,170
And they said, oh, he said, OK, the

3624
02:10:22,170 --> 02:10:23,250
sound wasn't as good.

3625
02:10:23,790 --> 02:10:27,130
No, but it was 37 minutes in length.

3626
02:10:27,230 --> 02:10:28,390
Our first episode ever.

3627
02:10:29,150 --> 02:10:30,390
There were no jingles.

3628
02:10:30,490 --> 02:10:31,970
In fact, we were proud of not having

3629
02:10:31,970 --> 02:10:32,450
jingles.

3630
02:10:32,670 --> 02:10:34,130
Yeah, we made a big deal about it.

3631
02:10:34,530 --> 02:10:38,050
But he said, he said, you know, the

3632
02:10:38,050 --> 02:10:40,650
way you guys interacted, despite a little more

3633
02:10:40,650 --> 02:10:42,610
delay, because we were using Skype back in

3634
02:10:42,610 --> 02:10:42,950
the day.

3635
02:10:42,990 --> 02:10:44,490
And, you know, and you sounded like you

3636
02:10:44,490 --> 02:10:46,570
were talking through a straw from time to

3637
02:10:46,570 --> 02:10:46,850
time.

3638
02:10:48,050 --> 02:10:51,450
He said, but it's it's been remarkably consistent.

3639
02:10:52,270 --> 02:10:53,610
And I'm like, yeah, well, that's true.

3640
02:10:53,670 --> 02:10:55,290
We have we have never changed.

3641
02:10:55,370 --> 02:10:56,490
And this is what I was explaining to

3642
02:10:56,490 --> 02:10:56,650
Tina.

3643
02:10:56,770 --> 02:10:58,550
See, you're never going to fly private, OK?

3644
02:10:58,730 --> 02:10:59,830
Just get used to it.

3645
02:11:00,030 --> 02:11:01,050
It's never going to happen.

3646
02:11:01,670 --> 02:11:03,970
It's never unless you want to go in

3647
02:11:03,970 --> 02:11:07,210
my little, my little little sister that's flying

3648
02:11:07,210 --> 02:11:07,690
private.

3649
02:11:07,850 --> 02:11:10,070
She doesn't consider that to be flying private

3650
02:11:10,070 --> 02:11:11,130
if she has to get it.

3651
02:11:11,330 --> 02:11:12,570
What is it then?

3652
02:11:12,970 --> 02:11:15,670
Getting in over the wing is not flying

3653
02:11:15,670 --> 02:11:16,310
private.

3654
02:11:16,310 --> 02:11:19,110
She's unless there's stairs that drop down from

3655
02:11:19,110 --> 02:11:19,930
the fuselage.

3656
02:11:19,990 --> 02:11:21,350
It's not flying private.

3657
02:11:21,350 --> 02:11:22,650
And I have to agree with her.

3658
02:11:23,150 --> 02:11:23,890
I disagree.

3659
02:11:24,250 --> 02:11:26,610
I think getting in a helicopter is flying

3660
02:11:26,610 --> 02:11:27,130
private.

3661
02:11:28,550 --> 02:11:30,710
Anyway, that's beyond the point.

3662
02:11:30,970 --> 02:11:32,830
I said, because we're going to we're going

3663
02:11:32,830 --> 02:11:33,270
to do that.

3664
02:11:33,290 --> 02:11:34,770
She says, I hope you make it until

3665
02:11:34,770 --> 02:11:35,410
20 years.

3666
02:11:35,510 --> 02:11:36,670
And what do you hope you make until

3667
02:11:36,670 --> 02:11:37,370
20 years?

3668
02:11:37,650 --> 02:11:39,330
We're going forever with this thing.

3669
02:11:39,370 --> 02:11:41,690
We're going to die in this cell until

3670
02:11:41,690 --> 02:11:42,430
we drop.

3671
02:11:42,510 --> 02:11:43,970
Yeah, one of us is going to drop.

3672
02:11:43,970 --> 02:11:46,230
And then, you know, hopefully we should probably

3673
02:11:46,230 --> 02:11:48,050
have a dead man switch and have that

3674
02:11:48,050 --> 02:11:51,530
licensing deal for for Darren and Larry in

3675
02:11:51,530 --> 02:11:53,790
the pocket for, you know, for our heirs.

3676
02:11:56,050 --> 02:11:57,070
Think about it.

3677
02:11:57,290 --> 02:11:58,430
We just give them half.

3678
02:11:59,990 --> 02:12:00,470
Half.

3679
02:12:00,950 --> 02:12:02,350
By the way, we do the money.

3680
02:12:05,510 --> 02:12:07,510
I'm loving this idea more and more every

3681
02:12:07,510 --> 02:12:08,070
single day.

3682
02:12:08,750 --> 02:12:10,650
They could they could be everybody has a

3683
02:12:10,650 --> 02:12:11,070
B team.

3684
02:12:11,150 --> 02:12:12,630
Why don't we have a farm team set

3685
02:12:12,630 --> 02:12:12,830
up?

3686
02:12:13,490 --> 02:12:15,550
Yeah, well, you know, you make a good

3687
02:12:15,550 --> 02:12:15,990
point.

3688
02:12:16,330 --> 02:12:17,610
I knew you'd like it.

3689
02:12:17,830 --> 02:12:18,350
All right.

3690
02:12:18,430 --> 02:12:20,850
Well, we should hold open auditions, really.

3691
02:12:22,810 --> 02:12:25,070
I'm liking the open auditions.

3692
02:12:25,990 --> 02:12:27,350
I'd like to see a few of the

3693
02:12:27,350 --> 02:12:27,730
ladies.

3694
02:12:28,110 --> 02:12:28,370
Yes.

3695
02:12:28,590 --> 02:12:29,030
Yes.

3696
02:12:29,170 --> 02:12:30,790
And we'll even switch on the video.

3697
02:12:30,930 --> 02:12:33,470
We would like to have an audition to

3698
02:12:33,470 --> 02:12:37,590
do five minutes, five minutes, five minutes of

3699
02:12:37,590 --> 02:12:39,230
media deconstruction.

3700
02:12:39,450 --> 02:12:40,770
You can throw in a clip or two.

3701
02:12:40,770 --> 02:12:42,990
Send it in out of McCurry dot com.

3702
02:12:43,190 --> 02:12:44,050
I am very curious.

3703
02:12:44,050 --> 02:12:46,350
And if you if it's video, even better,

3704
02:12:46,810 --> 02:12:47,430
even better.

3705
02:12:47,490 --> 02:12:49,350
But you have to adhere to the same

3706
02:12:49,350 --> 02:12:50,510
value for value model.

3707
02:12:50,530 --> 02:12:51,950
Otherwise, you're going to screw it up for

3708
02:12:51,950 --> 02:12:54,890
yourself because that's what we've learned after 18

3709
02:12:54,890 --> 02:12:55,250
years.

3710
02:12:55,410 --> 02:12:56,590
This is what works.

3711
02:12:56,750 --> 02:12:59,130
And it works because we don't have to

3712
02:12:59,130 --> 02:13:03,410
kowtow to subscribers, advertisers, any of that stuff.

3713
02:13:03,870 --> 02:13:06,650
No, we just we are consistent with this.

3714
02:13:06,710 --> 02:13:08,690
We are not captured by our audience.

3715
02:13:08,690 --> 02:13:11,790
People get get mad and leave in a

3716
02:13:11,790 --> 02:13:13,350
huff and they come back or they don't

3717
02:13:13,350 --> 02:13:14,350
or new people come in.

3718
02:13:14,830 --> 02:13:19,890
It's John Spurlock who runs OP3 dot dev.

3719
02:13:19,970 --> 02:13:23,570
It's an open source measurement system, part of

3720
02:13:23,570 --> 02:13:25,930
podcasting 2.0. He says, I have never

3721
02:13:25,930 --> 02:13:28,490
seen in all the podcasts he monitors.

3722
02:13:28,590 --> 02:13:30,050
He monitors four and a half million.

3723
02:13:30,670 --> 02:13:33,050
There is no audience as loyal as the

3724
02:13:33,050 --> 02:13:34,070
no agenda audience.

3725
02:13:35,090 --> 02:13:36,970
I should probably get a like an official

3726
02:13:36,970 --> 02:13:38,090
statement from him.

3727
02:13:38,090 --> 02:13:41,870
Yeah, have him sign it and seal it.

3728
02:13:42,050 --> 02:13:42,150
Yeah.

3729
02:13:42,150 --> 02:13:43,270
What does he mean by that?

3730
02:13:43,750 --> 02:13:46,670
He says that the loyalty, I guess you

3731
02:13:46,670 --> 02:13:47,830
can see this, the loyalty.

3732
02:13:48,290 --> 02:13:49,810
Doing it by IP addresses.

3733
02:13:51,910 --> 02:13:54,670
Well, it's not just it's he has a

3734
02:13:54,670 --> 02:13:55,410
whole system.

3735
02:13:55,510 --> 02:13:56,630
This guy is a genius.

3736
02:13:56,830 --> 02:13:57,730
He's ex Google.

3737
02:13:58,270 --> 02:13:59,110
He retired.

3738
02:13:59,370 --> 02:14:00,750
He lives on a ranch in New Jersey.

3739
02:14:00,750 --> 02:14:01,830
One of those guys.

3740
02:14:01,910 --> 02:14:02,110
Yeah.

3741
02:14:02,210 --> 02:14:04,110
And he says he's a guy who's got

3742
02:14:04,110 --> 02:14:06,050
a yeah, I know the type.

3743
02:14:06,050 --> 02:14:08,510
This is an engineer's a true.

3744
02:14:10,290 --> 02:14:11,610
You know, these some people can.

3745
02:14:11,670 --> 02:14:12,430
I've said this before.

3746
02:14:12,510 --> 02:14:13,670
I'll bring it up one more time.

3747
02:14:13,990 --> 02:14:16,910
There are people out there like, for example,

3748
02:14:17,030 --> 02:14:17,630
Chad Heath.

3749
02:14:17,750 --> 02:14:18,610
He used to work at IBM.

3750
02:14:18,910 --> 02:14:20,790
He always used to look and I know

3751
02:14:20,790 --> 02:14:22,190
other people, too, that could do this.

3752
02:14:22,350 --> 02:14:23,430
George Morrow could do it.

3753
02:14:23,710 --> 02:14:25,430
He'd look at a bus structure and see

3754
02:14:25,430 --> 02:14:27,490
what the what the signals were supposed to

3755
02:14:27,490 --> 02:14:27,630
be.

3756
02:14:27,710 --> 02:14:29,030
And he could see immediately where there'd be

3757
02:14:29,030 --> 02:14:29,670
a conflict.

3758
02:14:30,530 --> 02:14:33,210
Another friend of mine was a used to

3759
02:14:33,210 --> 02:14:35,290
be an antenna engineer at Grumman.

3760
02:14:35,290 --> 02:14:37,090
And he said he could look at it

3761
02:14:37,090 --> 02:14:38,750
and just look at an antenna and say,

3762
02:14:38,830 --> 02:14:39,830
that's not going to work.

3763
02:14:41,730 --> 02:14:43,590
And and then he just says it took

3764
02:14:43,590 --> 02:14:45,650
him decades before he realized that nobody else

3765
02:14:45,650 --> 02:14:47,930
could see what he was seeing when he

3766
02:14:47,930 --> 02:14:49,870
saw that the antenna wouldn't work because he

3767
02:14:49,870 --> 02:14:51,290
could see how the waves came in.

3768
02:14:51,350 --> 02:14:53,430
I don't know what he's looking at, but

3769
02:14:53,430 --> 02:14:55,870
it's like that these kind of guys are

3770
02:14:55,870 --> 02:14:56,130
out there.

3771
02:14:56,150 --> 02:14:57,850
And he's obviously one of those guys who's

3772
02:14:57,850 --> 02:14:59,810
got a sense of this stuff.

3773
02:15:00,010 --> 02:15:01,630
He's also a super nice guy.

3774
02:15:01,630 --> 02:15:04,610
And he's worth a follow because he always

3775
02:15:04,610 --> 02:15:07,770
has links to very interesting stories and posts.

3776
02:15:07,890 --> 02:15:09,590
And he's a he's a he's a good

3777
02:15:09,590 --> 02:15:09,790
guy.

3778
02:15:09,890 --> 02:15:11,210
And he's doing all of this just for

3779
02:15:11,210 --> 02:15:12,350
the love of podcasting.

3780
02:15:12,370 --> 02:15:13,850
Doesn't charge anybody for it.

3781
02:15:15,090 --> 02:15:16,150
And he's yeah.

3782
02:15:16,250 --> 02:15:18,490
So when he says when he said makes

3783
02:15:18,490 --> 02:15:20,010
a statement like that, I tend to believe

3784
02:15:20,010 --> 02:15:20,150
him.

3785
02:15:20,190 --> 02:15:20,750
How he does it.

3786
02:15:20,790 --> 02:15:21,230
I don't know.

3787
02:15:21,450 --> 02:15:21,790
I don't know.

3788
02:15:21,870 --> 02:15:22,670
I probably right.

3789
02:15:22,770 --> 02:15:23,370
He's probably right.

3790
02:15:23,450 --> 02:15:25,850
I mean, we do a redirect through OP3

3791
02:15:25,850 --> 02:15:28,810
.dev, which, you know, thousands of podcasts do

3792
02:15:28,810 --> 02:15:30,670
this now because you can go right on

3793
02:15:30,670 --> 02:15:32,230
OP3.dev. You can take a look.

3794
02:15:32,650 --> 02:15:34,170
You can you can see all of his

3795
02:15:34,170 --> 02:15:35,490
stats and everything is great.

3796
02:15:36,210 --> 02:15:37,170
So that's the point.

3797
02:15:37,250 --> 02:15:38,250
We have a loyal audience.

3798
02:15:38,410 --> 02:15:40,490
So people who stick with us are with

3799
02:15:40,490 --> 02:15:41,730
us for a long time.

3800
02:15:41,870 --> 02:15:43,030
Now, that doesn't mean a lot of them

3801
02:15:43,030 --> 02:15:43,650
don't donate.

3802
02:15:44,130 --> 02:15:44,750
Well, no.

3803
02:15:44,870 --> 02:15:45,990
Why would it's free?

3804
02:15:46,090 --> 02:15:47,070
Why would you do that?

3805
02:15:48,030 --> 02:15:49,270
You know, like I don't have to go

3806
02:15:49,270 --> 02:15:50,210
to that cheese shop.

3807
02:15:50,290 --> 02:15:51,510
What happened to the cheese shop?

3808
02:15:51,570 --> 02:15:52,150
Oh, it's gone.

3809
02:15:52,270 --> 02:15:52,750
You know why?

3810
02:15:52,810 --> 02:15:53,770
He didn't buy any cheese.

3811
02:15:54,370 --> 02:15:55,950
So keep buying our cheese, people.

3812
02:15:56,910 --> 02:15:57,730
Yeah, it helps.

3813
02:15:58,490 --> 02:16:03,270
And supports open podcasting by getting a modern

3814
02:16:03,270 --> 02:16:05,290
podcast app, podcastapps.com.

3815
02:16:05,370 --> 02:16:07,530
So now we want to thank people, our

3816
02:16:07,530 --> 02:16:08,830
supporters, our producers.

3817
02:16:10,830 --> 02:16:15,470
Yeah, our Duke of Texas, Sir Gene, he

3818
02:16:15,470 --> 02:16:19,430
posted a like a negative comment on X.

3819
02:16:19,750 --> 02:16:22,470
He showed some video of like some dear

3820
02:16:22,470 --> 02:16:24,050
born Muslims celebrating.

3821
02:16:24,890 --> 02:16:26,810
Is this some holiday they celebrate?

3822
02:16:26,810 --> 02:16:29,910
You know, the 40 years after somebody of

3823
02:16:29,910 --> 02:16:30,710
Mohammed's died?

3824
02:16:30,830 --> 02:16:31,530
I don't know what it was.

3825
02:16:31,570 --> 02:16:33,410
And they do this dance and looks kind

3826
02:16:33,410 --> 02:16:34,270
of militaristic.

3827
02:16:34,629 --> 02:16:37,049
And he posts, I would I trust my

3828
02:16:37,049 --> 02:16:40,709
own eyes watching a video over some so

3829
02:16:40,709 --> 02:16:45,150
-called listeners who have anonymous listeners boots on

3830
02:16:45,150 --> 02:16:45,750
the ground.

3831
02:16:46,510 --> 02:16:48,590
I trust our boots on the ground.

3832
02:16:49,490 --> 02:16:51,930
We sniff out the spooks and we encourage

3833
02:16:51,930 --> 02:16:53,090
the spooks to email us.

3834
02:16:53,150 --> 02:16:54,889
Oh, yeah, we need more spooks.

3835
02:16:54,889 --> 02:16:56,790
We need spooks to tell us what's going

3836
02:16:56,790 --> 02:16:57,090
on.

3837
02:16:57,250 --> 02:16:59,010
They they're trying to feed us stuff, of

3838
02:16:59,010 --> 02:16:59,290
course.

3839
02:16:59,450 --> 02:17:00,870
Yeah, but we try to spot that in

3840
02:17:00,870 --> 02:17:01,049
there.

3841
02:17:01,410 --> 02:17:04,070
And they maybe sometimes donate from a safe

3842
02:17:04,070 --> 02:17:06,290
house or someplace where they have some extra

3843
02:17:06,290 --> 02:17:07,850
money and they can send it in.

3844
02:17:08,049 --> 02:17:09,450
We encourage that, too.

3845
02:17:09,969 --> 02:17:11,049
We encourage that.

3846
02:17:11,090 --> 02:17:12,889
It has not been happening much.

3847
02:17:13,070 --> 02:17:15,110
No, we are a safe, a spook safe

3848
02:17:15,110 --> 02:17:15,530
outfit.

3849
02:17:16,590 --> 02:17:18,030
Send your money.

3850
02:17:18,910 --> 02:17:20,950
Yeah, I don't understand what I think, you

3851
02:17:20,950 --> 02:17:21,870
know, they must have us.

3852
02:17:21,870 --> 02:17:24,030
I see it as some sort of cycle

3853
02:17:24,030 --> 02:17:25,670
where they get a bunch of money and

3854
02:17:25,670 --> 02:17:26,790
all of a sudden they, OK, you guys

3855
02:17:26,790 --> 02:17:28,750
send it to your favorite podcasters.

3856
02:17:29,030 --> 02:17:30,629
It's a memo that goes out.

3857
02:17:30,830 --> 02:17:32,250
It's a memo once every quarter.

3858
02:17:33,049 --> 02:17:34,690
This is the month you can send some

3859
02:17:34,690 --> 02:17:35,590
money to these guys.

3860
02:17:35,650 --> 02:17:37,209
Here's the credit card you can use.

3861
02:17:37,370 --> 02:17:37,790
Go ahead.

3862
02:17:37,910 --> 02:17:38,410
Use that.

3863
02:17:38,590 --> 02:17:39,389
Yeah, they're good credit.

3864
02:17:40,209 --> 02:17:42,430
Here's the credit card is, you know, they

3865
02:17:42,430 --> 02:17:43,430
can't be traced.

3866
02:17:43,629 --> 02:17:45,510
And here's the credit card you use for

3867
02:17:45,510 --> 02:17:48,049
your honey trap operations with the hookers and

3868
02:17:48,049 --> 02:17:49,110
use it to send some money.

3869
02:17:49,590 --> 02:17:51,270
Put some extra money in there for the

3870
02:17:51,270 --> 02:17:52,110
podcasters.

3871
02:17:52,549 --> 02:17:53,750
So, yeah.

3872
02:17:53,910 --> 02:17:55,510
But we haven't seen that recently.

3873
02:17:55,530 --> 02:17:56,330
And think about it.

3874
02:17:56,549 --> 02:17:58,870
Unless they're really slipping it in surreptitious.

3875
02:17:59,290 --> 02:17:59,889
No, no, no.

3876
02:18:00,170 --> 02:18:00,830
We're pretty good.

3877
02:18:00,990 --> 02:18:02,350
It's pretty obvious when it comes in.

3878
02:18:02,510 --> 02:18:02,650
Yeah.

3879
02:18:03,190 --> 02:18:05,770
And and and it's much better that we

3880
02:18:05,770 --> 02:18:08,850
have this this this method because then what

3881
02:18:08,850 --> 02:18:09,330
are they going to do?

3882
02:18:09,389 --> 02:18:13,350
Buy more farmer's dog to influence Joe Rogan?

3883
02:18:13,389 --> 02:18:14,730
No, it's not going to work.

3884
02:18:15,650 --> 02:18:17,690
Anyway, time, talent, treasure.

3885
02:18:17,690 --> 02:18:19,990
We want to thank the artist for episode

3886
02:18:19,990 --> 02:18:20,950
1831.

3887
02:18:21,129 --> 02:18:22,650
Of course, we had to title that the

3888
02:18:22,650 --> 02:18:23,790
Don Road Doctrine.

3889
02:18:24,969 --> 02:18:26,469
Once again, we're a little bit ahead of

3890
02:18:26,469 --> 02:18:26,850
the curve.

3891
02:18:27,270 --> 02:18:29,330
Now, everybody's using it, but we heard it

3892
02:18:29,330 --> 02:18:31,610
because the president said people are calling it

3893
02:18:31,610 --> 02:18:32,530
the Don Road Doctrine.

3894
02:18:32,590 --> 02:18:33,090
It's amazing.

3895
02:18:33,209 --> 02:18:34,110
I don't know how they came up with

3896
02:18:34,110 --> 02:18:34,469
it.

3897
02:18:35,110 --> 02:18:37,030
And Darren O'Neill nailed it.

3898
02:18:37,190 --> 02:18:38,410
He just nailed it.

3899
02:18:38,469 --> 02:18:42,129
This was, although very orange, meaning we kind

3900
02:18:42,129 --> 02:18:44,510
of know what what language model he used.

3901
02:18:44,510 --> 02:18:47,250
He had the no agenda nicotine cookies.

3902
02:18:47,430 --> 02:18:49,469
They're satisfying and smooth.

3903
02:18:49,809 --> 02:18:52,650
Thirty three packs and be fat and addicted

3904
02:18:52,650 --> 02:18:54,790
is a beautiful piece of art with some

3905
02:18:54,790 --> 02:18:57,510
fat like loser with, although it has very

3906
02:18:57,510 --> 02:18:58,549
good looking teeth.

3907
02:18:59,389 --> 02:19:02,510
Yeah, nice beanie and a beanie with a

3908
02:19:02,510 --> 02:19:02,950
propeller.

3909
02:19:03,230 --> 02:19:06,290
Although the propeller was kind of the A

3910
02:19:06,290 --> 02:19:08,910
.I. didn't do the propeller very well and

3911
02:19:08,910 --> 02:19:09,969
that that kind of failed.

3912
02:19:09,969 --> 02:19:11,610
But it was a great piece.

3913
02:19:12,129 --> 02:19:13,049
It's very funny.

3914
02:19:13,049 --> 02:19:15,010
You can't look at it and not laugh.

3915
02:19:15,570 --> 02:19:18,770
Now, the question is, when Darren and Larry

3916
02:19:18,770 --> 02:19:20,629
do the show, you know, on our licensing

3917
02:19:20,629 --> 02:19:23,010
deal, will they do their own art or

3918
02:19:23,010 --> 02:19:25,750
will they will they sub license the art

3919
02:19:25,750 --> 02:19:26,549
to someone else?

3920
02:19:26,809 --> 02:19:27,870
Let me think.

3921
02:19:29,590 --> 02:19:33,370
Darren, it'll be doing all the art and

3922
02:19:33,370 --> 02:19:36,270
all the all the end with Jeffrey Raya,

3923
02:19:36,290 --> 02:19:38,910
that guy.

3924
02:19:42,290 --> 02:19:44,010
I was going to take a look at

3925
02:19:44,010 --> 02:19:46,150
the art generator, although it seems to have

3926
02:19:46,150 --> 02:19:48,690
slowed down to a crawl.

3927
02:19:49,730 --> 02:19:51,930
Looks like the troll room's having trouble, too.

3928
02:19:53,130 --> 02:19:54,750
I got on it a little while ago.

3929
02:19:54,970 --> 02:19:55,950
Oh, you got on it earlier.

3930
02:19:56,250 --> 02:19:57,410
You just got a lot of stuff.

3931
02:19:57,850 --> 02:19:57,970
Yeah.

3932
02:19:58,050 --> 02:19:59,590
Well, do you want to talk about?

3933
02:19:59,690 --> 02:20:00,430
Oh, OK, I got it.

3934
02:20:00,450 --> 02:20:02,310
Some of the other pieces that were submitted

3935
02:20:02,310 --> 02:20:03,650
that we looked at.

3936
02:20:04,610 --> 02:20:06,390
I mean, there's a lot coming in.

3937
02:20:07,150 --> 02:20:10,110
I like the little the Jeffrey Ray had

3938
02:20:10,110 --> 02:20:11,130
a couple of good pieces.

3939
02:20:11,670 --> 02:20:14,510
He had the ultra lights, a flying scooter.

3940
02:20:14,790 --> 02:20:15,170
You would.

3941
02:20:15,270 --> 02:20:16,350
That was Darren's.

3942
02:20:16,630 --> 02:20:17,710
Didn't like the flying scooter.

3943
02:20:17,990 --> 02:20:19,130
I like the flying scooter.

3944
02:20:19,370 --> 02:20:21,410
It was aeronautically dumb.

3945
02:20:21,910 --> 02:20:22,890
Made no sense.

3946
02:20:23,810 --> 02:20:26,270
Oh, yeah, that's that's because it would make

3947
02:20:26,270 --> 02:20:27,250
sense.

3948
02:20:27,410 --> 02:20:29,190
So it would chop you in half.

3949
02:20:29,250 --> 02:20:31,330
It was no good CIA travel.

3950
02:20:31,330 --> 02:20:34,330
I kind of like comics or bloggers emergency

3951
02:20:34,330 --> 02:20:34,850
pod.

3952
02:20:34,970 --> 02:20:36,210
But you nix that right away.

3953
02:20:36,310 --> 02:20:36,790
Like we're not.

3954
02:20:36,870 --> 02:20:37,530
No, I didn't.

3955
02:20:37,590 --> 02:20:38,190
You nix it.

3956
02:20:38,250 --> 02:20:40,210
We're not going to do emergency pod.

3957
02:20:40,390 --> 02:20:41,350
Oh, I did not.

3958
02:20:41,450 --> 02:20:42,330
I thought it was funny.

3959
02:20:43,210 --> 02:20:44,610
I thought it was a funny piece.

3960
02:20:44,690 --> 02:20:45,450
I didn't nix it.

3961
02:20:45,610 --> 02:20:46,690
I thought it was a funny piece.

3962
02:20:47,330 --> 02:20:49,590
Well, we're not using emergency pod.

3963
02:20:49,650 --> 02:20:50,890
It makes it sound like we just did

3964
02:20:50,890 --> 02:20:52,030
an emergency pod.

3965
02:20:52,170 --> 02:20:53,490
Well, that's kind of the joke.

3966
02:20:54,230 --> 02:20:55,870
We don't do emergency pods.

3967
02:20:55,990 --> 02:20:58,830
And we and then Darren did Fox Box,

3968
02:20:58,930 --> 02:21:01,070
which was just wrong because it was box

3969
02:21:01,070 --> 02:21:01,550
Fox.

3970
02:21:02,210 --> 02:21:03,910
He got that the wrong way around.

3971
02:21:03,990 --> 02:21:05,210
We got a note about that.

3972
02:21:06,470 --> 02:21:07,710
I'm going to read that note.

3973
02:21:07,850 --> 02:21:09,610
This is a Dame Jen with a G

3974
02:21:09,610 --> 02:21:11,150
protector of women's vaginas.

3975
02:21:12,010 --> 02:21:12,570
Yeah, her.

3976
02:21:12,930 --> 02:21:15,450
That's a note that always gets some some

3977
02:21:15,450 --> 02:21:16,230
attention from us.

3978
02:21:16,630 --> 02:21:19,090
Listening to John's clip from TikTok girls, specifically

3979
02:21:19,090 --> 02:21:20,590
the baby checkboxes.

3980
02:21:21,090 --> 02:21:23,910
These gals are no longer on SSRI medication.

3981
02:21:24,150 --> 02:21:25,870
I'm seeing more and more of them in

3982
02:21:25,870 --> 02:21:28,350
the clinic because she's a protector of women's

3983
02:21:28,350 --> 02:21:32,030
vaginas that are on a much stronger Molotov

3984
02:21:32,030 --> 02:21:36,690
cocktail of atypical antipsychotics such as lithium, Abilify,

3985
02:21:36,930 --> 02:21:37,310
etc.

3986
02:21:38,050 --> 02:21:41,250
They start on SSRI medication, but still feel

3987
02:21:41,250 --> 02:21:43,310
sad or anxious at times.

3988
02:21:43,310 --> 02:21:45,250
So they get dosed up and more and

3989
02:21:45,250 --> 02:21:46,590
more powerful drugs.

3990
02:21:47,510 --> 02:21:47,670
Yeah.

3991
02:21:48,330 --> 02:21:50,810
And then she had a hypothesis about.

3992
02:21:52,250 --> 02:21:57,450
She and and the spook from Spokane hit

3993
02:21:57,450 --> 02:21:59,430
the gym on January 2nd, were shocked by

3994
02:21:59,430 --> 02:22:01,970
the lack of crowds, and she says she

3995
02:22:01,970 --> 02:22:04,270
attributes that to the GOP one epidemic.

3996
02:22:04,730 --> 02:22:06,610
I thought that was a good observation because

3997
02:22:06,610 --> 02:22:08,850
there was always talks about on the DHM

3998
02:22:08,850 --> 02:22:09,290
plug show.

3999
02:22:09,350 --> 02:22:12,150
He's always talking about checking out the gym.

4000
02:22:12,410 --> 02:22:14,510
You know, the first month of the new

4001
02:22:14,510 --> 02:22:16,930
year is always the parking lots are packed.

4002
02:22:16,930 --> 02:22:19,330
And then by March, there's nobody in the

4003
02:22:19,330 --> 02:22:19,830
parking lot.

4004
02:22:19,830 --> 02:22:22,010
But it sounds like the way she's seeing

4005
02:22:22,010 --> 02:22:23,630
it, it is not even going to be

4006
02:22:23,630 --> 02:22:24,490
packed in January.

4007
02:22:24,550 --> 02:22:27,370
Now, why bother going to the gym when

4008
02:22:27,370 --> 02:22:28,410
I just take this pill?

4009
02:22:28,630 --> 02:22:30,510
She says it's a good time to invest

4010
02:22:30,510 --> 02:22:34,130
in orthopedic surgery surgeries if there's such a

4011
02:22:34,130 --> 02:22:37,310
stock as these mostly women have shrunk to

4012
02:22:37,310 --> 02:22:39,770
toothpicks and with the muscle loss or one

4013
02:22:39,770 --> 02:22:42,310
slip away from breaking their hip, pelvis or

4014
02:22:42,310 --> 02:22:42,590
knee.

4015
02:22:42,730 --> 02:22:44,130
Invest in orthos.

4016
02:22:44,450 --> 02:22:45,070
There you go.

4017
02:22:45,130 --> 02:22:46,990
Another tip from your no agenda show.

4018
02:22:47,570 --> 02:22:48,830
Thank you very much.

4019
02:22:48,830 --> 02:22:49,090
All right.

4020
02:22:49,250 --> 02:22:51,910
Let's thank our executive and associate executive producers.

4021
02:22:52,190 --> 02:22:53,750
That's part of the time, talents and treasure.

4022
02:22:53,850 --> 02:22:55,090
The way it works is you get the

4023
02:22:55,090 --> 02:22:55,430
show.

4024
02:22:55,870 --> 02:22:56,970
We just give you the show.

4025
02:22:57,010 --> 02:22:57,550
It's out there.

4026
02:22:57,610 --> 02:22:58,430
You download it.

4027
02:22:58,510 --> 02:23:00,350
You don't have to worry about any way

4028
02:23:00,350 --> 02:23:01,070
of getting it.

4029
02:23:01,310 --> 02:23:02,990
And when you have and there's no ads,

4030
02:23:03,030 --> 02:23:04,590
of course, when you get it, you're like,

4031
02:23:04,650 --> 02:23:05,870
hey, that was worthwhile.

4032
02:23:06,030 --> 02:23:07,550
I'm going to help these guys out, keep

4033
02:23:07,550 --> 02:23:09,530
them going to hit at least 20 years,

4034
02:23:09,590 --> 02:23:12,390
maybe more, which we're hoping will be more

4035
02:23:12,390 --> 02:23:12,870
than that.

4036
02:23:13,270 --> 02:23:15,190
And you send in any amount that that

4037
02:23:15,190 --> 02:23:17,090
equals the value you feel you got out

4038
02:23:17,090 --> 02:23:17,290
of it.

4039
02:23:17,310 --> 02:23:17,910
It's that simple.

4040
02:23:17,910 --> 02:23:20,490
Sir Danimal comes in with five hundred dollars.

4041
02:23:20,570 --> 02:23:22,470
And he says, thanks to Nico Sime's tip

4042
02:23:22,470 --> 02:23:25,110
of the day archive, I had the best

4043
02:23:25,110 --> 02:23:26,850
gift at my white elephant party.

4044
02:23:27,170 --> 02:23:29,170
Tip of the day.net is an outstanding

4045
02:23:29,170 --> 02:23:29,970
resource.

4046
02:23:30,430 --> 02:23:32,930
Merry New Year, Sir Danimal, baron of the

4047
02:23:32,930 --> 02:23:33,570
secret city.

4048
02:23:34,110 --> 02:23:35,810
Another there's another reason.

4049
02:23:36,090 --> 02:23:37,890
So he bought a twenty five dollar gift

4050
02:23:37,890 --> 02:23:39,170
based upon a tip.

4051
02:23:39,650 --> 02:23:41,470
And he and he was a hero at

4052
02:23:41,470 --> 02:23:43,430
his at his white elephant party.

4053
02:23:43,850 --> 02:23:45,550
And he thanks the no agenda show for

4054
02:23:45,550 --> 02:23:45,730
that.

4055
02:23:45,750 --> 02:23:46,730
And we appreciate it.

4056
02:23:46,730 --> 02:23:48,530
Thank you, Nico Sime, for maintaining tip of

4057
02:23:48,530 --> 02:23:49,130
the day.net.

4058
02:23:49,430 --> 02:23:51,150
Also to be found at no agenda fund

4059
02:23:51,150 --> 02:23:51,650
dot com.

4060
02:23:53,730 --> 02:23:54,290
Tremont.

4061
02:23:55,070 --> 02:23:55,970
What do you think?

4062
02:23:56,090 --> 02:23:58,010
Campbell, Campbell, Campbell.

4063
02:23:58,090 --> 02:23:58,970
Yeah, I think Campbell.

4064
02:23:59,150 --> 02:23:59,310
Yeah.

4065
02:23:59,370 --> 02:24:01,510
And he's in a town called Supply.

4066
02:24:01,590 --> 02:24:04,730
Really Supply, North Carolina.

4067
02:24:05,090 --> 02:24:07,170
What are you doing there in Supply?

4068
02:24:07,870 --> 02:24:10,850
Three thirty three sixty nine.

4069
02:24:11,350 --> 02:24:15,790
This is Tremont Campbell of the Brunswick Isles.

4070
02:24:15,790 --> 02:24:16,790
Hi, team.

4071
02:24:17,430 --> 02:24:18,910
I want to start off calling out my

4072
02:24:18,910 --> 02:24:21,370
close friend R.P. for being a douchebag.

4073
02:24:23,050 --> 02:24:24,650
He hit me in the mouth in twenty

4074
02:24:24,650 --> 02:24:25,870
seventeen, but he's yet.

4075
02:24:26,350 --> 02:24:27,690
But he still remains a douchebag.

4076
02:24:27,790 --> 02:24:29,310
I also need a de-douching.

4077
02:24:31,370 --> 02:24:33,170
You've been de-douched.

4078
02:24:34,110 --> 02:24:35,350
Quick production note.

4079
02:24:35,890 --> 02:24:38,630
The wife, the wife, the wife enjoys listening,

4080
02:24:38,830 --> 02:24:39,130
but gets.

4081
02:24:40,550 --> 02:24:45,170
The wife enjoys listening, but gets irked when

4082
02:24:45,170 --> 02:24:48,530
y'all go on runs of constantly stepping

4083
02:24:48,530 --> 02:24:52,390
on clips with jokes, comments, noises, et cetera.

4084
02:24:53,170 --> 02:24:56,070
I enjoy it, but she wants to let

4085
02:24:56,070 --> 02:24:57,450
you know she does not.

4086
02:24:57,750 --> 02:25:03,490
Well, can we recognize can we recommend Pivot

4087
02:25:03,490 --> 02:25:05,470
as a podcast you might enjoy?

4088
02:25:06,070 --> 02:25:06,710
Yeah, Pivot.

4089
02:25:06,930 --> 02:25:07,830
That was the pivot.

4090
02:25:07,990 --> 02:25:09,650
I say step more.

4091
02:25:10,410 --> 02:25:11,550
She says less.

4092
02:25:11,550 --> 02:25:14,770
By the way, John, she loves Mimi's egg

4093
02:25:14,770 --> 02:25:15,190
book.

4094
02:25:15,370 --> 02:25:16,410
Oh, well, there you go.

4095
02:25:16,570 --> 02:25:17,350
Win too many eggs.

4096
02:25:17,570 --> 02:25:17,910
Dot com.

4097
02:25:18,030 --> 02:25:18,470
Too many eggs.

4098
02:25:18,570 --> 02:25:18,830
Dot com.

4099
02:25:18,910 --> 02:25:19,370
There's a win.

4100
02:25:20,850 --> 02:25:22,110
V slash R.

4101
02:25:23,050 --> 02:25:24,210
But I don't know what that means.

4102
02:25:24,290 --> 02:25:25,230
It's some code, I guess.

4103
02:25:28,330 --> 02:25:30,970
Tremont Campbell of the Brunswick Isles.

4104
02:25:31,430 --> 02:25:33,630
P.S. I need some Reverend Al in

4105
02:25:33,630 --> 02:25:34,450
my life.

4106
02:25:34,950 --> 02:25:35,690
Dealer's choice.

4107
02:25:35,830 --> 02:25:36,790
Let's do a classic.

4108
02:25:36,790 --> 02:25:41,230
But resist we much we must and we

4109
02:25:41,230 --> 02:25:45,670
will much about that be committed.

4110
02:25:46,390 --> 02:25:49,150
Clint Young is in Spokane Valley, Washington, sends

4111
02:25:49,150 --> 02:25:51,010
in three hundred twenty dollars and twenty six

4112
02:25:51,010 --> 02:25:51,270
cents.

4113
02:25:51,410 --> 02:25:52,430
I.T.M. Adam and John.

4114
02:25:52,670 --> 02:25:53,210
John and Adam.

4115
02:25:53,630 --> 02:25:55,250
This donation takes me to knighthood.

4116
02:25:55,390 --> 02:25:56,770
See accounting below jingle.

4117
02:25:56,970 --> 02:25:59,830
He's Trump, the president and a jobs karma

4118
02:25:59,830 --> 02:26:02,430
with the jobs yak karma.

4119
02:26:03,030 --> 02:26:04,350
OK, we can do that for you.

4120
02:26:04,350 --> 02:26:06,190
I would like to be known as Sir

4121
02:26:06,190 --> 02:26:08,490
Clint Tillius of the Pacific Northwest and would

4122
02:26:08,490 --> 02:26:11,250
like smoked brisket and zip fizz at the

4123
02:26:11,250 --> 02:26:12,270
round table.

4124
02:26:12,410 --> 02:26:13,050
Zip fizz.

4125
02:26:13,190 --> 02:26:14,290
What is zip fizz?

4126
02:26:15,150 --> 02:26:15,890
Is that an idea?

4127
02:26:16,190 --> 02:26:16,690
Must be a drink.

4128
02:26:17,310 --> 02:26:20,050
I'm sending this donation January 7th in honor

4129
02:26:20,050 --> 02:26:22,010
of my father, Clark Young, who passed away

4130
02:26:22,010 --> 02:26:24,650
just before Thanksgiving as he would have turned

4131
02:26:24,650 --> 02:26:25,670
83 today.

4132
02:26:25,870 --> 02:26:26,790
No, we're sorry to hear that.

4133
02:26:26,850 --> 02:26:27,470
That's too young.

4134

No, it's got butter in it.

4180
02:28:26,120 --> 02:28:27,200
It's got a lot of butter, a lot

4181
02:28:27,200 --> 02:28:27,520
of butter.

4182
02:28:27,720 --> 02:28:28,780
And I love butter.

4183
02:28:28,900 --> 02:28:29,960
I love the cards.

They're sending out to producers who use the.

4185
02:28:33,000 --> 02:28:34,220
We didn't know about.

4186
02:28:34,320 --> 02:28:36,260
They didn't tell us, but they're sending out

4187

It's a floor wax and a dessert topping.

Eli, the coffee guy to a 108.

4222
02:29:36,400 --> 02:29:37,720
I'm out of coffee, by the way.

4223
02:29:37,960 --> 02:29:40,860
Gentlemen, it's barely a week until the new

4224
02:29:40,860 --> 02:29:43,360
year and things are already feel lively.

4225
02:29:43,940 --> 02:29:46,020
Raids, riots and revolution.

4226
02:29:46,500 --> 02:29:47,900
Oh, that's so right.

4227
02:29:48,060 --> 02:29:49,460
Raids, riots, revolutions.

4228
02:29:49,540 --> 02:29:50,300
I got to write that down.

4229
02:29:50,400 --> 02:29:51,520
That's a possible show title.

4230
02:29:52,340 --> 02:29:53,960
And it's something you said that you got

4231
02:29:53,960 --> 02:29:54,360
cut off.

4232
02:29:54,400 --> 02:29:56,680
It's the same calendars, just a new header.

4233
02:29:57,180 --> 02:29:59,140
I'm planning to sit back and sip some

4234
02:29:59,140 --> 02:30:01,520
coffee and enjoy the wild ride.

4235
02:30:01,880 --> 02:30:04,860
You two won't be short on show material.

4236
02:30:04,860 --> 02:30:05,780
That's for sure.

Eli, the coffee guy.

4244
02:30:18,820 --> 02:30:21,040
Can I get an Atlas Shrugged jingle?

4245
02:30:21,300 --> 02:30:23,760
Oh, I totally miss that rare.

4246
02:30:24,000 --> 02:30:24,520
Yeah.

4247
02:30:24,640 --> 02:30:25,040
Wow.

4248
02:30:25,100 --> 02:30:26,940
That's been OK.

4249
02:30:27,060 --> 02:30:27,940

4250
02:30:28,100 --> 02:30:28,460
Yes.

By Ayn Rand.

4252
02:30:33,740 --> 02:30:34,320
There you go.

4253
02:30:34,520 --> 02:30:34,740
Wow.

4254
02:30:35,000 --> 02:30:36,900
A long time since we've had that plate.

4255
02:30:38,220 --> 02:30:40,760
Colin Fannin, Matawan, Michigan.

4256
02:30:41,120 --> 02:30:41,560
201.

4257
02:30:42,120 --> 02:30:42,500
Thank you.

4258
02:30:42,600 --> 02:30:43,660
Associate executive producer.

4259
02:30:43,800 --> 02:30:44,360
First donation.

4260
02:30:45,260 --> 02:30:45,980
I'll give him a deduce.

4261
02:30:47,720 --> 02:30:49,340
You've been deduced.

4262
02:30:50,680 --> 02:30:53,240
I have lots to say, but I'll hold

4263
02:30:53,240 --> 02:30:54,340
back for the good of all.

4264
02:30:54,500 --> 02:30:55,440
No, you didn't.

4265
02:30:55,580 --> 02:30:56,220
No, you didn't.

4266
02:30:56,820 --> 02:30:58,840
First heard Adam on Megyn Kelly, who I

4267
02:30:58,840 --> 02:30:59,820
no longer listen to.

4268
02:30:59,920 --> 02:31:01,580
Then on Glenn Beck, who I now rarely

4269
02:31:01,580 --> 02:31:02,040
listen to.

4270
02:31:02,120 --> 02:31:04,300
I'm like the black plague of podcasts.

4271
02:31:04,300 --> 02:31:06,420
You're like the kiss of death.

4272
02:31:06,900 --> 02:31:08,860
And lastly, on Joe Rogan, who I still

4273
02:31:08,860 --> 02:31:10,160
occasionally listen to.

4274
02:31:10,520 --> 02:31:12,260
But I now always listen to the best

4275
02:31:12,260 --> 02:31:13,380
podcast in the universe.

4276
02:31:13,560 --> 02:31:15,000
Here's the first of what will hopefully be

4277
02:31:15,000 --> 02:31:16,060
many more donations.

4278
02:31:16,720 --> 02:31:19,300
I quit my corporate gimmicky personal training job

4279
02:31:19,300 --> 02:31:21,160
to start my own personal training business.

4280
02:31:21,700 --> 02:31:22,680
Oh, this is a good idea.

4281
02:31:22,780 --> 02:31:23,320
An entrepreneur.

4282
02:31:23,760 --> 02:31:27,000
I specialize in strength training and sport performance,

4283
02:31:27,040 --> 02:31:29,440
but also a vast experience with weight loss,

4284
02:31:29,560 --> 02:31:32,360
general physical preparedness, pre and post menopausal women.

4285
02:31:32,840 --> 02:31:32,940
What?

4286
02:31:34,080 --> 02:31:35,460
I just cleared my throat.

4287
02:31:35,460 --> 02:31:37,720
And health aging for seniors.

4288
02:31:38,360 --> 02:31:40,060
So for any listeners looking to be unburdened

4289
02:31:40,060 --> 02:31:42,100
by what has been with this unburdened by

4290
02:31:42,100 --> 02:31:44,680
what has been that nice common reference with

4291
02:31:44,680 --> 02:31:47,000
a safe and effective fitness and nutrition plan,

4292
02:31:47,100 --> 02:31:51,120
visit noagenda.fit. Ah, another entrepreneur in our

4293
02:31:51,120 --> 02:31:51,880
stable, John.

4294
02:31:52,000 --> 02:31:54,540
Noagenda.fit. I love this.

4295
02:31:54,820 --> 02:31:56,800
I work with people online or in person

4296
02:31:56,800 --> 02:31:59,000
in the Kalamazoo, Michigan area.

4297
02:31:59,180 --> 02:32:01,040
If you want to save your treasure, I

4298
02:32:01,040 --> 02:32:02,060
do a lot of barter.

4299
02:32:02,060 --> 02:32:05,320
I've received meat, firearms, home cleaning, roof work,

4300
02:32:05,380 --> 02:32:07,600
and electrical services in exchange for my talent.

4301
02:32:07,780 --> 02:32:09,660
And of course, I'll offer free fitness coaching

4302
02:32:09,660 --> 02:32:10,460
for John and Adam.

4303
02:32:10,620 --> 02:32:11,260
Boom, I'm in.

4304
02:32:11,880 --> 02:32:12,520
I am in.

4305
02:32:13,020 --> 02:32:15,140
I need to get rid of my gut.

4306
02:32:15,800 --> 02:32:17,300
And Tina's been on my ass about it.

4307
02:32:17,320 --> 02:32:18,080
When did you get a gut?

4308
02:32:18,660 --> 02:32:20,860
Well, it started when Dutch people started sending

4309
02:32:20,860 --> 02:32:22,400
me Dutch licorice.

4310
02:32:23,400 --> 02:32:24,600
Oh, the Dutch licorice.

4311
02:32:24,620 --> 02:32:24,820
Yeah.

4312
02:32:24,900 --> 02:32:26,860
It really started when I stopped smoking, to

4313
02:32:26,860 --> 02:32:27,360
be honest.

4314
02:32:29,650 --> 02:32:30,910
That was to be expected.

4315
02:32:31,890 --> 02:32:33,270
I'll take you up on that, Colin.

4316
02:32:33,750 --> 02:32:36,150
But not in person, though.

4317
02:32:36,530 --> 02:32:36,890
Sit-ups.

4318
02:32:37,770 --> 02:32:38,990
I'm sure it's...

4319
02:32:38,990 --> 02:32:41,590
I want to devote like three minutes a

4320
02:32:41,590 --> 02:32:41,790
day.

4321
02:32:42,110 --> 02:32:43,590
Three minutes a day, I can swing.

4322
02:32:43,930 --> 02:32:45,230
So can you get rid of my gut?

4323
02:32:45,390 --> 02:32:46,290
I'll promote you forever.

4324
02:32:46,930 --> 02:32:48,650

4331
02:33:03,970 --> 02:33:04,270
All right.

4332
02:33:04,590 --> 02:33:05,430
Wonderful, Colin.

4333
02:33:05,510 --> 02:33:08,210
I look forward to losing my gut with

4334
02:33:08,210 --> 02:33:09,010
you, my friend.

4335
02:33:09,550 --> 02:33:11,030
Now, as we go from plug to plug,

4336
02:33:11,070 --> 02:33:13,250
we come to Linda Lou Patkin in Castle

4337
02:33:13,250 --> 02:33:16,290
Rock, Colorado, who comes in with the $200

4338
02:33:16,290 --> 02:33:19,690
and says jobs karma for a competitive edge

4339
02:33:19,690 --> 02:33:21,650
with a resume that gets results.

4340
02:33:21,730 --> 02:33:24,430
Go to imagemakersinc.com for all your executive

4341
02:33:24,430 --> 02:33:26,210
resume and job search needs.

4342
02:33:26,350 --> 02:33:27,690
That's imagemakersinc with a K.

4343
02:33:28,330 --> 02:33:30,450
And work with Linda Lou, the Duchess of

4344
02:33:30,450 --> 02:33:32,950
Jobs and writer of winning resumes.

4345
02:33:33,710 --> 02:33:36,830
Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.

4346
02:33:36,890 --> 02:33:38,490
Let's vote for jobs.

4347
02:33:39,550 --> 02:33:40,110
Karma.

4348
02:33:41,650 --> 02:33:44,570
You know, I really love these people, these

4349
02:33:44,570 --> 02:33:46,990
entrepreneurs with their products when they donate to

4350
02:33:46,990 --> 02:33:49,730
the show because it's so much fun.

4351
02:33:50,030 --> 02:33:52,790
You know, it's not like, oh, I'm going

4352
02:33:52,790 --> 02:33:54,090
to buy an ad from you.

4353
02:33:54,150 --> 02:33:55,730
You do a host read ad.

4354
02:33:55,730 --> 02:33:57,710
And then we have to stick to some

4355
02:33:57,710 --> 02:34:01,170
copy and it's all stodgy and it's dumb.

4356
02:34:01,770 --> 02:34:05,470
And now people make fun of each other.

4357
02:34:05,770 --> 02:34:09,590
They're offering good deals, you know, supporting the

4358
02:34:09,590 --> 02:34:09,750
show.

4359
02:34:09,810 --> 02:34:10,950
The whole thing is great.

4360
02:34:11,750 --> 02:34:13,550
Christopher Myers did none of that.

4361
02:34:14,010 --> 02:34:16,090
He's in Dallas, Texas, sent us $200 and

4362
02:34:16,090 --> 02:34:17,010
forgot to send the note.

4363
02:34:17,130 --> 02:34:18,710
So instead, we'll just give you a double

4364
02:34:18,710 --> 02:34:19,150
up karma.

4365
02:34:19,310 --> 02:34:22,630
You've got karma.

4366
02:34:23,330 --> 02:34:25,430
The last on the list is Sir Ron

4367
02:34:25,430 --> 02:34:28,490
Noren in Utrecht.

4368
02:34:29,530 --> 02:34:31,490
There's no L in Utrecht.

4369
02:34:32,670 --> 02:34:34,350
Oh yeah, there's not.

4370
02:34:35,070 --> 02:34:35,750
Utrecht.

4371
02:34:38,170 --> 02:34:39,690
Holland, 200 bucks.

4372
02:34:39,770 --> 02:34:42,630
Dear John and Adam, responding to the bat

4373
02:34:42,630 --> 02:34:43,970
signal in the newsletter.

4374
02:34:45,610 --> 02:34:47,450
Hope this saves the show.

4375
02:34:47,870 --> 02:34:48,630
It did.

4376
02:34:48,870 --> 02:34:49,350
It did.

4377
02:34:49,930 --> 02:34:53,350
All the best, Sir Ron Noren from...

4378
02:34:55,250 --> 02:34:56,510
He's in Portugal.

4379
02:34:56,790 --> 02:34:58,550
He's in Anceres.

4380
02:34:58,910 --> 02:34:59,550
Anceres.

4381
02:34:59,550 --> 02:35:00,650
I think it's Anceres.

4382
02:35:00,690 --> 02:35:01,630
Anceres, okay.

4383
02:35:02,870 --> 02:35:04,150
Anceres, Portugal.

4384
02:35:04,670 --> 02:35:04,890
Yes.

4385
02:35:05,010 --> 02:35:05,170
Well, good.

4386
02:35:05,270 --> 02:35:06,970
I would say you pronounce to be.

4387
02:35:07,350 --> 02:35:09,850
Ron Noren would be the correct pronunciation.

4388
02:35:13,030 --> 02:35:14,310
Ron Noren.

4389
02:35:15,070 --> 02:35:15,910
Nailed it.

4390
02:35:16,290 --> 02:35:18,910
And that concludes our executive and associate executive

4391
02:35:18,910 --> 02:35:19,290
producers.

4392
02:35:19,290 --> 02:35:24,270
For episode 1832, we thank everybody, $50 and

4393
02:35:24,270 --> 02:35:24,590
above.

4394
02:35:24,750 --> 02:35:26,550
And this segment is for people who are

4395
02:35:26,550 --> 02:35:27,990
fortunate enough to be able to send us

4396
02:35:27,990 --> 02:35:31,330
$200 and receive an associate executive producer credit

4397
02:35:31,330 --> 02:35:31,830
in return.

4398
02:35:31,910 --> 02:35:32,690
And we'll read your note.

4399
02:35:32,890 --> 02:35:35,450
$300 and above, you become an executive producer.

4400
02:35:35,830 --> 02:35:38,290
And your note will also be read.

4401
02:35:38,330 --> 02:35:40,290
And of course, these credits are real because

4402
02:35:40,290 --> 02:35:42,110
we're real pronunciators.

4403
02:35:42,410 --> 02:35:44,970
We're broadcasters and we can hand out these

4404
02:35:44,970 --> 02:35:45,310
credits.

4405
02:35:45,910 --> 02:35:49,010
And they're a beautiful thing to behold because

4406
02:35:49,010 --> 02:35:51,390
you can use them in your email signature,

4407
02:35:51,470 --> 02:35:52,570
if anyone still does that.

4408
02:35:52,850 --> 02:35:54,990
Most people just have sent from my iPhone.

4409
02:35:56,150 --> 02:35:58,510
Do people not know what an email signature

4410
02:35:58,510 --> 02:35:59,530
is anymore?

4411
02:36:00,330 --> 02:36:02,870
Do they not see that and say, why

4412
02:36:02,870 --> 02:36:04,810
am I promoting sent from my iPhone?

4413
02:36:05,370 --> 02:36:07,250
We can put all kinds of groovy stuff

4414
02:36:07,250 --> 02:36:08,190
in your SIG.

4415
02:36:08,330 --> 02:36:09,370
Yeah, you can take that off.

4416
02:36:09,530 --> 02:36:11,290
Of course, but no one does it.

4417
02:36:11,830 --> 02:36:12,450
I do.

4418
02:36:13,010 --> 02:36:13,890
You don't have an iPhone.

4419
02:36:13,890 --> 02:36:15,550
I say sent from my Bakelite phone.

4420
02:36:15,550 --> 02:36:17,630
Thank you very much to these executive and

4421
02:36:17,630 --> 02:36:20,550
associate executive producers for episode 1832.

4422
02:36:20,730 --> 02:36:22,010
Our formula is this.

4423
02:36:22,830 --> 02:36:23,490
We go out.

4424
02:36:24,090 --> 02:36:25,550
We hit people in the mouth.

4425
02:36:37,390 --> 02:36:38,230
You do.

4426
02:36:38,470 --> 02:36:40,490
You do send it from your Bakelite.

4427
02:36:40,990 --> 02:36:43,130
My Bakelite phone one letter at a time.

4428
02:36:43,510 --> 02:36:45,050
So I do have a funny clip.

4429
02:36:45,870 --> 02:36:46,470
That's good.

4430
02:36:46,550 --> 02:36:47,630
We love funny clips.

4431
02:36:47,950 --> 02:36:48,910
Well, we have Johnny.

4432
02:36:49,110 --> 02:36:50,870
Johnny from the water show.

4433
02:36:52,510 --> 02:36:53,130
Johnny's back.

4434
02:36:53,270 --> 02:36:54,330
Well, he's back a lot.

4435
02:36:54,430 --> 02:36:55,630
I just don't get a lot of his

4436
02:36:55,630 --> 02:36:56,590
stuff because it's not that.

4437
02:36:56,950 --> 02:36:58,370
I mean, it's always okay.

4438
02:36:58,930 --> 02:37:01,390
And this is probably the best reasonable one.

4439
02:37:01,730 --> 02:37:03,750
And it's always better when he goes to

4440
02:37:03,750 --> 02:37:04,390
the beach.

4441
02:37:05,910 --> 02:37:06,710
What beach?

4442
02:37:07,270 --> 02:37:08,810
He would say he went to Fort Myers.

4443
02:37:09,090 --> 02:37:09,650
Oh, okay.

4444
02:37:09,810 --> 02:37:11,370
They fly him from New York.

4445
02:37:11,710 --> 02:37:12,890
Hey, you want to go to Fort Myers

4446
02:37:12,890 --> 02:37:13,730
and do your segment?

4447
02:37:13,930 --> 02:37:14,870
Oh, I think so.

4448
02:37:14,870 --> 02:37:16,750
That's a big budget show right there.

4449
02:37:17,170 --> 02:37:17,650
It is.

4450
02:37:17,810 --> 02:37:19,690
Well, so if they find the Fort Myers

4451
02:37:19,690 --> 02:37:22,450
and again, the beach people that live on

4452
02:37:22,450 --> 02:37:24,590
the basically live their lives on the beach

4453
02:37:24,590 --> 02:37:25,430
or dingbats.

4454
02:37:26,110 --> 02:37:28,350
And so we get to we get to

4455
02:37:28,350 --> 02:37:32,290
hear this segment, which it's this takes a

4456
02:37:32,290 --> 02:37:32,990
lot of editing.

4457
02:37:33,090 --> 02:37:34,350
Believe me to get some of this stuff

4458
02:37:34,350 --> 02:37:34,690
out of here.

4459
02:37:34,690 --> 02:37:37,170
But this is, I think, the crux.

4460
02:37:44,170 --> 02:37:45,570
How'd you ring in the New Year?

4461
02:37:45,810 --> 02:37:47,170
Got fed some shots by the bartender.

4462
02:37:47,290 --> 02:37:49,230
Stayed out till about 3 a.m. and

4463
02:37:49,230 --> 02:37:50,430
got very drunk.

4464
02:37:50,590 --> 02:37:51,430
I gave a cow a beer.

4465
02:37:51,550 --> 02:37:52,010
That's about it.

4466
02:37:52,090 --> 02:37:53,750
We rung it in kind of by the

4467
02:37:53,750 --> 02:37:54,090
toilet.

4468
02:37:54,290 --> 02:37:57,410
I blacked out at a party and my

4469
02:37:57,410 --> 02:37:59,470
friend had to carry me home and I

4470
02:37:59,470 --> 02:38:00,630
lost my shoes.

4471
02:38:00,750 --> 02:38:01,490
What was your New Year's kiss?

4472
02:38:01,710 --> 02:38:03,630
My last call of the night.

4473
02:38:03,910 --> 02:38:04,650
Just the toilet.

4474
02:38:05,710 --> 02:38:08,130
Ended up going home with a random guy.

4475
02:38:08,230 --> 02:38:09,210
What was the random guy's name?

4476
02:38:09,730 --> 02:38:10,230
Don't know.

4477
02:38:10,410 --> 02:38:10,850
Don't remember.

4478
02:38:10,850 --> 02:38:13,390
What was your biggest mistake in 2025?

4479
02:38:14,130 --> 02:38:15,330
Partying more than I should have.

4480
02:38:15,450 --> 02:38:16,330
My ex-boyfriend, honestly.

4481
02:38:16,550 --> 02:38:17,470
It's just a piece of s***.

4482
02:38:17,590 --> 02:38:18,410
Broke my foot.

4483
02:38:18,510 --> 02:38:19,510
That was a pretty big mistake.

4484
02:38:19,670 --> 02:38:22,090
Dating a man that I did not like.

4485
02:38:22,210 --> 02:38:23,550
What do you predict is going to happen

4486
02:38:23,550 --> 02:38:25,950
in your life this year, 2026?

4487
02:38:26,090 --> 02:38:27,390
I'm going to climb Mount Everest.

4488
02:38:27,550 --> 02:38:29,270
Get famous and rich.

4489
02:38:29,430 --> 02:38:30,010
I go to Minnesota.

4490
02:38:30,210 --> 02:38:31,250
What's going to happen with your governor, Tim

4491
02:38:31,250 --> 02:38:31,630
Walsh?

4492
02:38:31,850 --> 02:38:32,230
I don't know.

4493
02:38:32,390 --> 02:38:33,810
Do you know your governor, Tim Walsh?

4494
02:38:33,810 --> 02:38:34,010
No.

4495
02:38:34,230 --> 02:38:35,030
Why do you know that?

4496
02:38:35,250 --> 02:38:36,510
He was Kamala's running mate.

4497
02:38:36,650 --> 02:38:38,050
Oh, okay.

4498
02:38:38,870 --> 02:38:39,470
Not know that.

4499
02:38:39,470 --> 02:38:40,210
We call him Tampon.

4500
02:38:40,210 --> 02:38:40,570
Really?

4501
02:38:40,890 --> 02:38:41,730
I kind of like that.

4502
02:38:41,790 --> 02:38:42,910
I'm going to commit tax fraud.

4503
02:38:43,070 --> 02:38:44,590
Good luck, because you're saying that on camera.

4504
02:38:45,070 --> 02:38:45,890
Can't catch me.

4505
02:38:46,010 --> 02:38:46,390
What's your name?

4506
02:38:46,670 --> 02:38:47,050
I'm Nick.

4507
02:38:47,310 --> 02:38:47,770
Where do you live?

4508
02:38:48,070 --> 02:38:48,390
Kansas.

4509
02:38:49,490 --> 02:38:50,150
Oh, wait, shoot.

4510
02:38:50,170 --> 02:38:50,850
I shouldn't have said that.

4511
02:38:50,950 --> 02:38:53,250
2025 was Donald Trump's big return to the

4512
02:38:53,250 --> 02:38:53,670
White House.

4513
02:38:53,910 --> 02:38:54,390
How'd he do?

4514
02:38:54,470 --> 02:38:56,830
Our economy is on the uphill climb.

4515
02:38:57,010 --> 02:38:57,710
Gas is cheaper.

4516
02:38:57,850 --> 02:38:58,590
Groceries are cheaper.

4517
02:38:58,810 --> 02:39:00,170
I do a little bit of stocks, so

4518
02:39:00,170 --> 02:39:00,990
that's done well.

4519
02:39:01,050 --> 02:39:01,810
Best president ever.

4520
02:39:01,930 --> 02:39:03,950
What should Donald Trump's New Year's resolution be?

4521
02:39:04,030 --> 02:39:04,690
World peace.

4522
02:39:05,030 --> 02:39:05,870
Let's just be peaceful.

4523
02:39:06,110 --> 02:39:08,010
How did Trump capture Maduro?

4524
02:39:08,290 --> 02:39:09,690
I don't know what that is.

4525
02:39:10,710 --> 02:39:11,150
Maduro.

4526
02:39:11,670 --> 02:39:12,770
Is that a place?

4527
02:39:13,130 --> 02:39:15,090
Is that a location?

4528
02:39:15,930 --> 02:39:16,510
I think it's a disease.

4529
02:39:17,250 --> 02:39:19,150
I don't even know where Maduro is.

4530
02:39:19,350 --> 02:39:20,590
I don't know what Maduro is.

4531
02:39:20,710 --> 02:39:22,190
He was the leader of Venezuela.

4532
02:39:22,810 --> 02:39:23,070
Okay.

4533
02:39:23,250 --> 02:39:24,090
Where is Venezuela?

4534
02:39:24,430 --> 02:39:24,950
I don't know.

4535
02:39:25,170 --> 02:39:26,570
Is it north or south of Florida?

4536
02:39:26,810 --> 02:39:29,350
I mean, the world's circular, so it's both.

4537
02:39:30,850 --> 02:39:31,710
Oh, my God.

4538
02:39:31,830 --> 02:39:33,330
Okay, first observation.

4539
02:39:34,490 --> 02:39:36,970
Why are these people complaining about not being

4540
02:39:36,970 --> 02:39:38,030
able to afford a house?

4541
02:39:38,110 --> 02:39:39,570
It sounds like they're having a good life.

4542
02:39:40,470 --> 02:39:41,430
Sounds groovy.

4543
02:39:42,370 --> 02:39:43,770
This is like nobody.

4544
02:39:44,110 --> 02:39:46,290
I always like to bring these in once

4545
02:39:46,290 --> 02:39:48,190
in a while just to remind people that

4546
02:39:48,190 --> 02:39:51,730
this is the level of knowledge about current

4547
02:39:51,730 --> 02:39:52,170
events.

4548
02:39:52,330 --> 02:39:53,890
Nobody knows who Maduro is.

4549
02:39:54,190 --> 02:39:57,950
They don't know where Venezuela is, and we

4550
02:39:57,950 --> 02:39:59,350
get all worked up about a lot of

4551
02:39:59,350 --> 02:40:01,150
this stuff, and women go out and try

4552
02:40:01,150 --> 02:40:05,110
to run over ICE agents and get shot

4553
02:40:05,110 --> 02:40:07,850
and get over yourself.

4554
02:40:07,850 --> 02:40:10,870
Well, it's interesting because I have two clips,

4555
02:40:11,330 --> 02:40:14,190
and I'm not fishing in your pond.

4556
02:40:14,670 --> 02:40:16,150
I did get them off TikTok.

4557
02:40:16,490 --> 02:40:17,490
I got them off TikTok.

4558
02:40:18,650 --> 02:40:21,630
And the first one, you've seen this type

4559
02:40:21,630 --> 02:40:24,810
of TikTok teacher, but this is the lead

4560
02:40:24,810 --> 02:40:27,550
into the second TikTok teacher, and it explains

4561
02:40:27,550 --> 02:40:28,890
a lot about your clip.

4562
02:40:29,250 --> 02:40:31,170
Things that do not exist inside high schools

4563
02:40:31,170 --> 02:40:33,090
anymore that I think might shock some people.

4564
02:40:33,310 --> 02:40:35,070
None of these things shocked me, but then

4565
02:40:35,070 --> 02:40:36,210
on the internet, I realized I was like,

4566
02:40:36,250 --> 02:40:37,450
oh, people don't know this.

4567
02:40:37,450 --> 02:40:38,510
So now I have to share it with

4568
02:40:38,510 --> 02:40:38,610
you.

4569
02:40:38,630 --> 02:40:39,430
There are no textbooks.

4570
02:40:39,630 --> 02:40:40,810
I did not know that people would not

4571
02:40:40,810 --> 02:40:41,210
know this.

4572
02:40:41,370 --> 02:40:44,290
Yeah, no, I have never seen a textbook.

4573
02:40:44,650 --> 02:40:46,210
This is my third year teaching high school.

4574
02:40:46,430 --> 02:40:48,910
I've never seen one for a singular class.

4575
02:40:49,090 --> 02:40:50,470
And what we're starting to see in education

4576
02:40:50,470 --> 02:40:51,810
is everyone's like, I think we need to

4577
02:40:51,810 --> 02:40:52,430
go back.

4578
02:40:52,550 --> 02:40:53,450
We need textbooks.

4579
02:40:53,690 --> 02:40:56,110
I love when I find a PDF that's

4580
02:40:56,110 --> 02:40:56,910
from a textbook.

4581
02:40:57,150 --> 02:40:58,470
I found The Most Dangerous Game.

4582
02:40:58,510 --> 02:40:59,510
I was printing that out for my ninth

4583
02:40:59,510 --> 02:41:01,070
graders last year, and I found a textbook

4584
02:41:01,070 --> 02:41:02,750
version with questions on the side.

4585
02:41:02,830 --> 02:41:04,410
And I was like, oh my god, Jackpot,

4586
02:41:04,530 --> 02:41:05,110
need that.

4587
02:41:05,430 --> 02:41:06,590
I miss textbooks.

4588
02:41:06,590 --> 02:41:08,570
But I remember having that in middle school.

4589
02:41:08,690 --> 02:41:10,070
I remember having that in high school for

4590
02:41:10,070 --> 02:41:10,790
a little bit.

4591
02:41:11,010 --> 02:41:12,410
I graduated in 2019, mind you.

4592
02:41:12,610 --> 02:41:13,570
I think that a lot of these things

4593
02:41:13,570 --> 02:41:15,090
don't shock me because while I was in

4594
02:41:15,090 --> 02:41:16,430
high school, that was kind of like when

4595
02:41:16,430 --> 02:41:18,770
we were transitioning away from all these things

4596
02:41:18,770 --> 02:41:20,710
that are now completely missing in high schools.

4597
02:41:20,910 --> 02:41:22,750
The third thing, there are not computer labs.

4598
02:41:22,870 --> 02:41:24,450
There's not a singular computer lab in this

4599
02:41:24,450 --> 02:41:24,650
school.

4600
02:41:24,890 --> 02:41:26,450
Mind you, this is a brand new school.

4601
02:41:26,630 --> 02:41:27,530
Those aren't necessary.

4602
02:41:27,710 --> 02:41:28,950
All of our kids are one-to-one.

4603
02:41:29,050 --> 02:41:30,030
They all have their own Chromebook.

4604
02:41:30,230 --> 02:41:31,370
We don't need a computer lab.

4605
02:41:31,470 --> 02:41:33,170
I remember being so excited to go to

4606
02:41:33,170 --> 02:41:35,010
the computer lab, especially elementary school.

4607
02:41:35,010 --> 02:41:36,870
By those computer lab days, oh my god,

4608
02:41:36,990 --> 02:41:37,230
golden.

4609
02:41:37,970 --> 02:41:39,930
Okay, I didn't actually know this.

4610
02:41:40,050 --> 02:41:43,950
I guess if I thought about it, yeah,

4611
02:41:44,050 --> 02:41:45,850
I know about Chromebooks in schools.

4612
02:41:45,970 --> 02:41:48,830
I didn't realize that there's absolutely no textbooks

4613
02:41:48,830 --> 02:41:49,370
at all.

4614
02:41:49,430 --> 02:41:52,190
And from the sound of this teacher, who,

4615
02:41:52,290 --> 02:41:54,470
by the way, teacher, you should be able

4616
02:41:54,470 --> 02:41:56,570
to speak for at least a minute without

4617
02:41:56,570 --> 02:42:00,330
having to pause after every sentence to restart

4618
02:42:00,330 --> 02:42:01,750
the recording.

4619
02:42:02,050 --> 02:42:03,930
I mean, that says a lot about you.

4620
02:42:03,930 --> 02:42:04,950
I'm sorry to say.

4621
02:42:05,510 --> 02:42:08,330
Were you aware that there's absolutely no textbooks

4622
02:42:08,330 --> 02:42:09,290
in school anymore?

4623
02:42:09,430 --> 02:42:10,470
I mean, I know I'm a boomer.

4624
02:42:10,490 --> 02:42:11,750
I find that hard to believe.

4625
02:42:12,190 --> 02:42:14,870
Well, it turns out it's true.

4626
02:42:15,830 --> 02:42:19,010
Just asking around, even here.

4627
02:42:19,270 --> 02:42:20,830
I know in colleges, there's plenty of textbooks

4628
02:42:20,830 --> 02:42:23,410
because the professors make you buy their book.

4629
02:42:23,750 --> 02:42:25,670
Yes, yes, this is true.

4630
02:42:26,590 --> 02:42:29,310
So in middle school, high school, it seems

4631
02:42:29,310 --> 02:42:33,310
that there's maybe a generality.

4632
02:42:33,310 --> 02:42:37,310
But for sure, I know that Google spent

4633
02:42:37,310 --> 02:42:40,230
an exorbitant amount of money and we followed

4634
02:42:40,230 --> 02:42:40,650
all this.

4635
02:42:40,710 --> 02:42:43,510
It started with Common Core and, you know,

4636
02:42:43,550 --> 02:42:44,590
the whole ushering it.

4637
02:42:44,710 --> 02:42:46,390
Apple used to have kind of the market

4638
02:42:46,390 --> 02:42:47,550
for schools.

4639
02:42:47,770 --> 02:42:50,850
They had a whole K through 12 program,

4640
02:42:51,150 --> 02:42:53,950
and they would fund the computer labs, and

4641
02:42:53,950 --> 02:42:57,350
they put MacBooks and Macs in there, and

4642
02:42:57,350 --> 02:42:59,490
people could learn how to use a computer.

4643
02:43:00,020 --> 02:43:03,130
No, that apparently has just gone by the

4644
02:43:03,130 --> 02:43:03,610
wayside.

4645
02:43:03,730 --> 02:43:05,870
And I'm sure people will say, we have

4646
02:43:05,870 --> 02:43:07,850
textbooks in our school, but it doesn't sound

4647
02:43:07,850 --> 02:43:09,910
like a lot of schools have them anymore.

4648
02:43:10,070 --> 02:43:15,170
And I found this TikTok teacher who, he

4649
02:43:15,170 --> 02:43:18,050
says that what you're seeing on the Jesse

4650
02:43:18,050 --> 02:43:22,010
Waters show, the complete lack of knowledge of

4651
02:43:22,010 --> 02:43:24,830
anything, other than I got blackout drunk and

4652
02:43:24,830 --> 02:43:27,250
I dated a guy I hated, is because

4653
02:43:27,250 --> 02:43:28,190
of the Chromebooks.

4654
02:43:28,190 --> 02:43:30,570
I have been teaching for 25 years.

4655
02:43:30,770 --> 02:43:33,890
I've watched education change, evolve, reinvent itself.

4656
02:43:34,030 --> 02:43:35,270
And on more occasions than I'd like to

4657
02:43:35,270 --> 02:43:37,630
admit, education has chased shiny nonsense.

4658
02:43:37,950 --> 02:43:39,810
And from experiencing all of that, I'm going

4659
02:43:39,810 --> 02:43:41,810
to say this as clearly as I possibly

4660
02:43:41,810 --> 02:43:42,170
can.

4661
02:43:42,430 --> 02:43:44,230
Chromebooks are killing education.

4662
02:43:44,450 --> 02:43:46,170
And this is not coming from some technophobic

4663
02:43:46,170 --> 02:43:47,490
teacher clutching a chalkboard.

4664
02:43:47,710 --> 02:43:49,850
I teach K through 8 computer science.

4665
02:43:50,030 --> 02:43:51,470
I believe in technology.

4666
02:43:51,730 --> 02:43:53,890
I have taught kids to code, debug, use

4667
02:43:53,890 --> 02:43:57,490
Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Classrooms, problem solve

4668
02:43:57,490 --> 02:43:58,290
and create.

4669
02:43:58,610 --> 02:44:01,170
I remember when computers were a privilege, not

4670
02:44:01,170 --> 02:44:01,830
a pacifier.

4671
02:44:02,110 --> 02:44:03,870
And I feel like that is really the

4672
02:44:03,870 --> 02:44:04,730
difference right now.

4673
02:44:04,910 --> 02:44:06,510
Chromebooks were supposed to be tools.

4674
02:44:06,710 --> 02:44:09,130
Instead, they have become crutches and babysitters.

4675
02:44:09,350 --> 02:44:11,070
Digital worksheets with better branding.

4676
02:44:11,310 --> 02:44:13,010
We have handed kids screens before they could

4677
02:44:13,010 --> 02:44:14,330
even hold a pencil properly.

4678
02:44:14,550 --> 02:44:16,310
And then we act shocked that attention spans

4679
02:44:16,310 --> 02:44:19,450
have evaporated and frustration tolerance has hit zero.

4680
02:44:19,810 --> 02:44:21,390
I have watched students who can swipe, tap

4681
02:44:21,390 --> 02:44:23,470
and close pop-ups with Olympic level speed,

4682
02:44:23,670 --> 02:44:25,330
but can't write a paragraph to save their

4683
02:44:25,330 --> 02:44:28,190
life or follow multi-step directions or sit

4684
02:44:28,190 --> 02:44:30,450
with a problem without instantly asking, is there

4685
02:44:30,450 --> 02:44:31,290
a video for this?

4686
02:44:31,450 --> 02:44:34,170
Paper slows the brain down in a good

4687
02:44:34,170 --> 02:44:34,490
way.

4688
02:44:34,730 --> 02:44:36,890
Pencils create the friction that thinking needs.

4689
02:44:37,030 --> 02:44:39,650
Books require patience, stamina and imagination.

4690
02:44:40,190 --> 02:44:42,630
Screens train kids to expect instant answers.

4691
02:44:42,830 --> 02:44:44,590
Dopamine hits and endless stimulation.

4692
02:44:44,890 --> 02:44:46,830
And then we wonder why school feels boring

4693
02:44:46,830 --> 02:44:47,490
and hard.

4694
02:44:47,730 --> 02:44:49,550
And don't even get me started on kindergartners

4695
02:44:49,550 --> 02:44:50,350
with Chromebooks.

4696
02:44:50,510 --> 02:44:52,410
Five-year-olds do not need personal laptops.

4697
02:44:52,410 --> 02:44:54,950
They need scissors and crayons and blocks and

4698
02:44:54,950 --> 02:44:57,950
conversations and play a whole lot of it.

4699
02:44:58,230 --> 02:45:00,010
Developmentally, screens are skipping steps.

4700
02:45:00,210 --> 02:45:02,070
And those skipped steps are now showing up

4701
02:45:02,070 --> 02:45:05,410
as behavior problems, anxiety and academic gaps later.

4702
02:45:05,590 --> 02:45:07,270
And here's the irony, because there is always

4703
02:45:07,270 --> 02:45:07,730
irony.

4704
02:45:08,010 --> 02:45:09,570
We killed the computer lab in the name

4705
02:45:09,570 --> 02:45:10,630
of one-to-one devices.

4706
02:45:10,950 --> 02:45:13,010
And in doing so, we killed actual computer

4707
02:45:13,010 --> 02:45:13,410
skills.

4708
02:45:13,630 --> 02:45:15,270
Kids do not know how to type properly.

4709
02:45:15,470 --> 02:45:16,890
They don't understand file systems.

4710
02:45:17,150 --> 02:45:19,770
They don't know how computers fundamentally work.

4711
02:45:19,770 --> 02:45:21,330
They just know how to click next or

4712
02:45:21,330 --> 02:45:22,270
scroll up.

4713
02:45:22,530 --> 02:45:24,310
Let's bring back the computer lab.

4714
02:45:24,550 --> 02:45:26,390
Make technology intentional again.

4715
02:45:26,610 --> 02:45:28,570
Teach kids when to use tech, not just

4716
02:45:28,570 --> 02:45:29,010
how.

4717
02:45:29,190 --> 02:45:31,790
Chromebooks should be a tool used sometimes with

4718
02:45:31,790 --> 02:45:34,290
purpose, not the default for everything.

4719
02:45:34,610 --> 02:45:36,710
Education does not need more screens.

4720
02:45:36,870 --> 02:45:39,010
It needs more thinking, more writing, more reading,

4721
02:45:39,190 --> 02:45:41,930
more hands-on learning and more human interaction.

4722
02:45:42,270 --> 02:45:43,910
I have seen what school looked like before

4723
02:45:43,910 --> 02:45:44,530
this experiment.

4724
02:45:44,810 --> 02:45:46,390
And I'm watching the fallout now.

4725
02:45:46,470 --> 02:45:47,750
This isn't nostalgia speaking here.

4726
02:45:47,750 --> 02:45:50,050
This is 25 years of teaching experience.

4727
02:45:50,230 --> 02:45:52,390
It is beyond time to course correct, especially

4728
02:45:52,390 --> 02:45:54,630
before we raise a whole generation fluent in

4729
02:45:54,630 --> 02:45:56,350
apps, but illiterate in focus.

4730
02:45:57,290 --> 02:45:58,950
Man, I thought that was good.

4731
02:45:59,270 --> 02:46:00,090
I was good.

4732
02:46:00,170 --> 02:46:01,870
I give the credit for digging it up

4733
02:46:01,870 --> 02:46:04,330
and taking my spot on the TikTok report.

4734
02:46:06,550 --> 02:46:08,650
I think the point that I got out

4735
02:46:08,650 --> 02:46:11,250
of it, which I didn't think about, was

4736
02:46:11,250 --> 02:46:13,250
the getting rid of computer labs.

4737
02:46:13,410 --> 02:46:16,010
Because when they had computer labs, they would

4738
02:46:16,010 --> 02:46:17,430
actually teach you how to use a computer,

4739
02:46:17,430 --> 02:46:21,110
how the processor integrated with the memory.

4740
02:46:21,510 --> 02:46:22,570
File systems, file systems.

4741
02:46:22,570 --> 02:46:23,810
So you knew how a file system worked,

4742
02:46:23,870 --> 02:46:25,730
how a desktop worked, and how the fact

4743
02:46:25,730 --> 02:46:29,030
is that there's memory that's permanent, there's memory

4744
02:46:29,030 --> 02:46:32,330
that's temporary, and all that stuff works together.

4745
02:46:32,950 --> 02:46:34,390
And now they don't teach anything.

4746
02:46:34,530 --> 02:46:35,490
People don't have a clue.

4747
02:46:35,670 --> 02:46:37,690
Oh, okay, it's in the cloud, whatever that

4748
02:46:37,690 --> 02:46:37,910
is.

4749
02:46:37,950 --> 02:46:38,510
I don't know.

4750
02:46:38,990 --> 02:46:41,370
I just scroll and there is another picture

4751
02:46:41,370 --> 02:46:42,210
I can watch.

4752
02:46:42,290 --> 02:46:43,850
I still think it would be a great

4753
02:46:43,850 --> 02:46:44,780
idea to get...

4754
02:46:45,430 --> 02:46:46,890
Kids, get your Chromebook.

4755
02:46:46,890 --> 02:46:48,330
Here's the thumb drive.

4756
02:46:48,430 --> 02:46:49,970
Now install Linux on it.

4757
02:46:51,090 --> 02:46:52,190
I think you can do that.

4758
02:46:52,290 --> 02:46:52,770
I think you can...

4759
02:46:52,770 --> 02:46:53,750
I don't think so.

4760
02:46:53,890 --> 02:46:56,590
I mean, a Chromebook, it runs on a

4761
02:46:56,590 --> 02:46:58,790
version of Linux anyway.

4762
02:46:59,250 --> 02:47:00,970
But you want to...

4763
02:47:00,970 --> 02:47:01,570
I mean, let me see.

4764
02:47:01,810 --> 02:47:04,030
Can I install...

4765
02:47:04,030 --> 02:47:04,570
There you go.

4766
02:47:04,610 --> 02:47:05,370
Ask the AI.

4767
02:47:05,990 --> 02:47:07,970
Linux on a Chromebook.

4768
02:47:08,230 --> 02:47:09,870
I'm actually asking Kaji.

4769
02:47:10,250 --> 02:47:11,090
Kaji, man.

4770
02:47:11,230 --> 02:47:11,570
Kaji.

4771
02:47:11,950 --> 02:47:13,670
Yes, set up Linux on your Chromebook.

4772
02:47:14,170 --> 02:47:16,430
Google actually has a help document for it.

4773
02:47:17,090 --> 02:47:18,070
How about that?

4774
02:47:18,590 --> 02:47:20,130
Okay, so they hook it up and so

4775
02:47:20,130 --> 02:47:20,230
what?

4776
02:47:20,230 --> 02:47:20,950
You can install that.

4777
02:47:21,090 --> 02:47:22,690
Well, because you get a real idea of

4778
02:47:22,690 --> 02:47:23,570
how it works.

4779
02:47:24,710 --> 02:47:25,070
Yes.

4780
02:47:25,390 --> 02:47:26,230
Yeah, I mean...

4781
02:47:26,230 --> 02:47:27,410
I think it's to get rid of the

4782
02:47:27,410 --> 02:47:29,590
Chromebooks to begin to use a real computer.

4783
02:47:30,070 --> 02:47:32,510
Okay, and install Omarchi.

4784
02:47:33,350 --> 02:47:35,630
Omarchi, that's the hot new Linux operating system.

4785
02:47:36,130 --> 02:47:36,490
Omarchi.

4786
02:47:37,190 --> 02:47:37,470
Oh?

4787
02:47:37,670 --> 02:47:38,610
Oh, have you heard of it?

4788
02:47:38,790 --> 02:47:39,150
Omarchi?

4789
02:47:39,650 --> 02:47:40,950
No, I have not heard of it.

4790
02:47:41,010 --> 02:47:41,530
I should have.

4791
02:47:41,730 --> 02:47:43,090
Oh, there's the...

4792
02:47:43,090 --> 02:47:44,290
Why is it so good?

4793
02:47:44,290 --> 02:47:48,770
Well, software developers in particular are installing it

4794
02:47:48,770 --> 02:47:50,050
on their MacBooks.

4795
02:47:50,870 --> 02:47:52,850
It's O-M-A-R-C-H-Y,

4796
02:47:52,910 --> 02:47:53,690
I think, Omarchi.

4797
02:47:54,110 --> 02:47:57,750
Because it redefines the whole idea of the

4798
02:47:57,750 --> 02:47:58,550
user interface.

4799
02:47:58,670 --> 02:48:02,310
And it's all with very simple keyboard commands

4800
02:48:02,310 --> 02:48:05,610
using mainly the super key or the command

4801
02:48:05,610 --> 02:48:07,350
key or whatever it is on your keyboard.

4802
02:48:08,610 --> 02:48:12,050
And all that irritating stuff about how windows

4803
02:48:12,050 --> 02:48:13,430
are always getting in the way and you

4804
02:48:13,430 --> 02:48:15,050
have to move the window over here and

4805
02:48:15,050 --> 02:48:17,550
there's no menu bars.

4806
02:48:17,690 --> 02:48:20,750
The whole thing just works exactly how your

4807
02:48:20,750 --> 02:48:21,590
brain thinks.

4808
02:48:22,630 --> 02:48:23,690
I'll send you a video.

4809
02:48:25,290 --> 02:48:26,250
Send me a video.

4810
02:48:26,590 --> 02:48:27,810
I'll send you a video if you can

4811
02:48:27,810 --> 02:48:28,790
learn about Omarchi.

4812
02:48:28,990 --> 02:48:30,310
And it's built on Arch Linux.

4813
02:48:30,510 --> 02:48:32,630
It's really phenomenal.

4814
02:48:33,830 --> 02:48:38,790
And funny enough, believe it or not, some

4815
02:48:38,790 --> 02:48:40,730
people I've been talking to, they have figured

4816
02:48:40,730 --> 02:48:41,630
out a way...

4817
02:48:41,630 --> 02:48:42,650
I can't wait for this.

4818
02:48:42,650 --> 02:48:45,630
I just don't have the time to make

4819
02:48:45,630 --> 02:48:47,250
the Roadcaster work with it.

4820
02:48:48,010 --> 02:48:49,910
And I've been wanting to get off of

4821
02:48:49,910 --> 02:48:52,110
this Windows machine for the show for the

4822
02:48:52,110 --> 02:48:53,030
longest time.

4823
02:48:53,350 --> 02:48:53,830
Decade.

4824
02:48:54,410 --> 02:48:55,330
At least.

4825
02:48:57,110 --> 02:48:58,650
But I need time.

4826
02:48:58,830 --> 02:49:01,590
I mean, the show takes up all my

4827
02:49:01,590 --> 02:49:01,990
time.

4828
02:49:02,530 --> 02:49:04,570
People are like, this is a great podcast.

4829
02:49:05,050 --> 02:49:05,710
It has everything.

4830
02:49:05,830 --> 02:49:06,950
It has millions of clips.

4831
02:49:07,070 --> 02:49:07,710
Listen to it.

4832
02:49:10,450 --> 02:49:12,110
Time codes are useful people.

4833
02:49:14,310 --> 02:49:17,610
So, yeah, I found that to be very

4834
02:49:17,610 --> 02:49:18,310
eye-opening.

4835
02:49:18,990 --> 02:49:19,910
That's horrible.

4836
02:49:20,370 --> 02:49:20,490
Yeah.

4837
02:49:21,250 --> 02:49:23,170
Five-year-olds need scissors.

4838
02:49:24,130 --> 02:49:24,890
They do.

4839
02:49:25,710 --> 02:49:26,510
And they need to run with them.

4840
02:49:26,530 --> 02:49:28,430
They need scissors with blunt, not pointed scissors.

4841
02:49:28,470 --> 02:49:29,070
Run with them.

4842
02:49:29,130 --> 02:49:30,830
They need crayons to write on the wall.

4843
02:49:31,050 --> 02:49:32,350
Yeah, this is good stuff.

4844
02:49:32,630 --> 02:49:33,090
Exactly.

4845
02:49:33,350 --> 02:49:34,330
Exactly what they need.

4846
02:49:34,330 --> 02:49:36,610
Here's another kind of a screwball report that

4847
02:49:36,610 --> 02:49:37,510
just came out.

4848
02:49:37,630 --> 02:49:39,110
And I thought it didn't get a lot

4849
02:49:39,110 --> 02:49:40,410
of play in the mainstream, but I think

4850
02:49:40,410 --> 02:49:41,550
it's kind of important.

4851
02:49:41,550 --> 02:49:42,630
This is the visa bonds.

4852
02:49:42,710 --> 02:49:43,490
Have you heard about this?

4853
02:49:43,830 --> 02:49:44,750
Visa bonds?

4854
02:49:45,490 --> 02:49:46,610
Yeah, you haven't heard about this?

4855
02:49:46,790 --> 02:49:46,890
No.

4856
02:49:47,210 --> 02:49:49,870
Travelers from several countries will now need to

4857
02:49:49,870 --> 02:49:52,790
pay up to a $15,000 bond to

4858
02:49:52,790 --> 02:49:54,810
enter the U.S. It's meant to deter

4859
02:49:54,810 --> 02:49:57,250
them from overstaying their visa when they're here

4860
02:49:57,250 --> 02:49:58,970
for tourism or business.

4861
02:49:59,310 --> 02:50:02,070
The State Department has just added 25 more

4862
02:50:02,070 --> 02:50:06,470
countries to this list, including Venezuela, Cuba, Nepal,

4863
02:50:06,770 --> 02:50:08,170
Nigeria, and others.

4864
02:50:08,330 --> 02:50:10,910
That brings the total to 38 countries.

4865
02:50:10,910 --> 02:50:13,450
Officials say that these are countries with high

4866
02:50:13,450 --> 02:50:17,410
rates of visa overstays, insufficient screening and vetting,

4867
02:50:17,850 --> 02:50:20,010
and those that don't require proof of residency

4868
02:50:20,010 --> 02:50:21,190
to obtain citizenship.

4869
02:50:21,770 --> 02:50:24,010
So travelers from those countries are going to

4870
02:50:24,010 --> 02:50:25,770
need to pay the U.S. Treasury anywhere

4871
02:50:25,770 --> 02:50:28,530
between $5,000 to $15,000.

4872
02:50:29,170 --> 02:50:31,330
The amount will be determined during their visa

4873
02:50:31,330 --> 02:50:33,690
interview, and that money will be returned to

4874
02:50:33,690 --> 02:50:36,030
the traveler if they don't overstay their visa.

4875
02:50:36,470 --> 02:50:38,770
This comes as federal authorities are cracking down

4876
02:50:38,770 --> 02:50:41,150
on illegal immigrants, including those that came in

4877
02:50:41,150 --> 02:50:43,270
legally but then overstayed their visa.

4878
02:50:43,670 --> 02:50:44,690
Great idea.

4879
02:50:44,930 --> 02:50:46,070
Long overdue.

4880
02:50:46,250 --> 02:50:47,070
Big fan.

4881
02:50:48,050 --> 02:50:48,530
Great.

4882
02:50:48,790 --> 02:50:50,970
Now, of course, no one has $15,000,

4883
02:50:51,190 --> 02:50:53,530
but then you get a financing guy in

4884
02:50:53,530 --> 02:50:53,850
the middle.

4885
02:50:54,490 --> 02:50:57,050
So you'll pay, you know, like $100, and...

4886
02:50:57,050 --> 02:50:57,830
You have a bondsman.

4887
02:50:57,930 --> 02:50:58,630
It's like a bondsman.

4888
02:50:58,810 --> 02:50:59,510
Like a bail bondsman.

4889
02:50:59,530 --> 02:51:00,390
A bail bondsman.

4890
02:51:00,530 --> 02:51:00,990
Exactly.

4891
02:51:01,090 --> 02:51:05,070
You probably will have to pay 10%, $150

4892
02:51:05,070 --> 02:51:06,850
for the $15,000.

4893
02:51:06,850 --> 02:51:09,870
It's a great idea that we should...

4894
02:51:09,870 --> 02:51:10,890
I remember we were...

4895
02:51:10,890 --> 02:51:11,930
Tina and I were in New York.

4896
02:51:12,010 --> 02:51:13,270
This is going back a while.

4897
02:51:13,350 --> 02:51:14,170
I can't remember when.

4898
02:51:14,270 --> 02:51:16,130
This must be eight, nine years ago.

4899
02:51:16,990 --> 02:51:20,190
And we were talking to this waiter or

4900
02:51:20,190 --> 02:51:22,290
a server in an Irish pub, I think.

4901
02:51:23,330 --> 02:51:25,410
And he was Irish, which was kind of

4902
02:51:25,410 --> 02:51:25,630
fun.

4903
02:51:25,930 --> 02:51:27,250
And we're talking and chatting.

4904
02:51:27,470 --> 02:51:29,110
I said, you know, so when did you

4905
02:51:29,110 --> 02:51:29,450
get here?

4906
02:51:29,530 --> 02:51:31,190
He said, I got here about eight months

4907
02:51:31,190 --> 02:51:31,490
ago.

4908
02:51:31,850 --> 02:51:32,070
Oh.

4909
02:51:32,370 --> 02:51:33,770
He says, yeah, I'm working here illegally.

4910
02:51:33,870 --> 02:51:35,390
Don't, don't, don't rat me out.

4911
02:51:35,390 --> 02:51:37,230
I'm like, well, this is the problem.

4912
02:51:38,030 --> 02:51:39,010
This is a problem.

4913
02:51:39,910 --> 02:51:42,530
You know, you can't overstay your tourist visa

4914
02:51:42,530 --> 02:51:43,150
for this.

4915
02:51:44,210 --> 02:51:45,310
You know, do it properly.

4916
02:51:45,650 --> 02:51:47,190
I'm like, yeah, people like that.

4917
02:51:47,310 --> 02:51:48,470
You know, as much as I like the

4918
02:51:48,470 --> 02:51:50,810
guy, but he has every opportunity to do

4919
02:51:50,810 --> 02:51:51,330
it legally.

4920
02:51:52,410 --> 02:51:54,890
You know, get yourself a Trump platinum card.

4921
02:51:55,310 --> 02:51:57,790
You got a million, a million bucks.

4922
02:51:57,910 --> 02:51:58,450
No problem.

4923
02:51:59,230 --> 02:52:00,830
No, I think this is a good idea.

4924
02:52:01,550 --> 02:52:03,610
Now, it's not going to be from the

4925
02:52:03,610 --> 02:52:07,410
EU, but it'll be from some other countries.

4926
02:52:07,670 --> 02:52:09,630
Yeah, well, I looked at the list.

4927
02:52:09,670 --> 02:52:13,710
It's mostly Africa and pieces of Asia, some

4928
02:52:13,710 --> 02:52:14,490
South America.

4929
02:52:14,770 --> 02:52:15,050
Yeah.

4930
02:52:15,510 --> 02:52:17,610
What's the latest on the H-1B visas

4931
02:52:17,610 --> 02:52:18,750
and all that nonsense?

4932
02:52:18,930 --> 02:52:19,450
Is that, is that?

4933
02:52:19,570 --> 02:52:20,630
There's no news.

4934
02:52:21,770 --> 02:52:26,210
Because I read somewhere there was like, there's

4935
02:52:26,210 --> 02:52:28,290
all kinds of scams people are uncovering.

4936
02:52:28,290 --> 02:52:31,950
There's like human body mills, essentially.

4937
02:52:32,310 --> 02:52:33,250
Oh, yeah, there has to be.

4938
02:52:33,430 --> 02:52:35,090
Where, you know, they just, you know, here,

4939
02:52:35,210 --> 02:52:37,490
here's, you know, and by the way, they

4940
02:52:37,490 --> 02:52:38,190
all look the same.

4941
02:52:38,350 --> 02:52:39,770
Yeah, this is your picture now.

4942
02:52:40,450 --> 02:52:41,570
You're not this guy.

4943
02:52:41,870 --> 02:52:43,410
Now you got this H-1B visa.

4944
02:52:43,610 --> 02:52:45,150
Shut up and get back in your cot.

4945
02:52:46,250 --> 02:52:47,450
Now, it's a mess.

4946
02:52:48,050 --> 02:52:49,190
We got a lot of problems.

4947
02:52:49,510 --> 02:52:50,250
We got a lot, you know, we got

4948
02:52:50,250 --> 02:52:50,990
a lot of problems.

4949
02:52:51,930 --> 02:52:53,730
But we're still the best country in the

4950
02:52:53,730 --> 02:52:53,930
world.

4951
02:52:53,990 --> 02:52:55,830
I can say that hands down, having lived

4952
02:52:55,830 --> 02:52:56,610
in a couple of them.

4953
02:52:57,410 --> 02:52:58,210
What do you think?

4954
02:52:59,430 --> 02:53:01,010
Yeah, I think so.

4955
02:53:01,290 --> 02:53:03,570
I want to finish off this segment with

4956
02:53:03,570 --> 02:53:04,630
a little sports talk.

4957
02:53:06,490 --> 02:53:07,010
Okay.

4958
02:53:07,790 --> 02:53:08,930
You have any clips left?

4959
02:53:09,610 --> 02:53:11,390
Yeah, I got tons, but it's okay.

4960
02:53:11,650 --> 02:53:13,210
We're, we're running out of time here.

4961
02:53:13,350 --> 02:53:14,490
So is this Seahawks?

4962
02:53:15,030 --> 02:53:16,870
So for people who like to bet on

4963
02:53:16,870 --> 02:53:20,510
the Super Bowl, we're getting to the end.

4964
02:53:20,910 --> 02:53:23,930
So I found an interesting coincidental index.

4965
02:53:24,490 --> 02:53:24,730
Hmm.

4966
02:53:26,610 --> 02:53:29,070
Which indicates the Seahawks should be in the

4967
02:53:29,070 --> 02:53:30,390
Super Bowl, whether they win or not.

4968
02:53:30,470 --> 02:53:31,630
It's another question.

4969
02:53:32,070 --> 02:53:33,050
And here's the reason.

4970
02:53:33,350 --> 02:53:36,270
In 2005, there was a new Pope, Pope

4971
02:53:36,270 --> 02:53:36,690
Benedict.

4972
02:53:37,010 --> 02:53:37,190
Okay.

4973
02:53:37,310 --> 02:53:39,630
That year, Seattle went to the Super Bowl.

4974
02:53:39,850 --> 02:53:40,170
Okay.

4975
02:53:40,210 --> 02:53:43,670
In 2013, again, a new Pope, Pope Francis.

4976
02:53:43,730 --> 02:53:46,190
That year, Seattle won the Super Bowl.

4977
02:53:46,510 --> 02:53:47,310
Hello, Leo.

4978
02:53:47,490 --> 02:53:49,130
I'm just saying, hello, Leo.

4979
02:53:49,230 --> 02:53:49,930
This could happen again.

4980
02:53:50,230 --> 02:53:50,870
All right.

4981
02:53:50,910 --> 02:53:52,270
It's the papist prop bet.

4982
02:53:52,330 --> 02:53:52,970
I like it.

4983
02:53:52,970 --> 02:53:53,770
Yeah.

4984
02:53:53,990 --> 02:53:54,730
Papist prop.

4985
02:53:55,650 --> 02:53:57,270
You like the alliteration.

4986
02:53:57,410 --> 02:53:57,950
I do.

4987
02:54:11,690 --> 02:54:13,450
And we do have a few more people

4988
02:54:13,450 --> 02:54:15,770
to thank that gave us $50 and above.

4989
02:54:15,870 --> 02:54:18,030
And Adam will go through the list starting

4990
02:54:18,030 --> 02:54:19,570
right now.

4991
02:54:19,890 --> 02:54:20,950
Well, yes, I will.

4992
02:54:20,950 --> 02:54:24,810
Of course, you heard us earlier thanking the

4993
02:54:24,810 --> 02:54:27,350
executive and associate executive producers.

4994
02:54:27,890 --> 02:54:29,090
We love them.

4995
02:54:29,230 --> 02:54:31,010
But we love everybody who supports us with

4996
02:54:31,010 --> 02:54:31,850
value for value.

4997
02:54:31,990 --> 02:54:33,730
And we start with the $15 and above

4998
02:54:33,730 --> 02:54:34,950
at 142.

4999
02:54:34,990 --> 02:54:37,250
Edward Strauss from Louisville, Kentucky.

5000
02:54:37,430 --> 02:54:37,990
Thank you very much.

5001
02:54:38,110 --> 02:54:42,070
Dame Rita Sparks, Nevada, 123.45. And she's

5002
02:54:42,070 --> 02:54:42,570
always there.

5003
02:54:42,670 --> 02:54:44,010
And we appreciate that, Dame Rita.

5004
02:54:44,090 --> 02:54:45,710
Are you a duchess by now?

5005
02:54:45,770 --> 02:54:47,530
You've been supporting us for a long time.

5006
02:54:48,130 --> 02:54:49,310
She does say you're the best.

5007
02:54:50,310 --> 02:54:53,290
Nicole Stone from Rapid City, South Dakota.

5008
02:54:54,070 --> 02:54:54,970
I'll read this.

5009
02:54:55,050 --> 02:54:56,710
She says, this is $105.

5010
02:54:56,990 --> 02:54:59,310
My husband, Sir Rory Stone, introduced me to

5011
02:54:59,310 --> 02:54:59,790
your show.

5012
02:55:00,170 --> 02:55:02,230
I'm making my first donation as my friend

5013
02:55:02,230 --> 02:55:05,410
Eric East celebrates his 39th year around the

5014
02:55:05,410 --> 02:55:05,570
sun.

5015
02:55:05,650 --> 02:55:07,490
Today's a long time listener who doesn't donate

5016
02:55:07,490 --> 02:55:07,850
enough.

5017
02:55:08,270 --> 02:55:10,470
I donated 105, as that's how many seats

5018
02:55:10,470 --> 02:55:13,750
make up the South Dakota state legislature that

5019
02:55:13,750 --> 02:55:14,910
kicks off next week.

5020
02:55:14,910 --> 02:55:17,870
I recently started a political action committee called

5021
02:55:17,870 --> 02:55:19,530
Better Together People Over Party.

5022
02:55:20,190 --> 02:55:21,890
Some of my most favorite moments with Eric

5023
02:55:21,890 --> 02:55:22,970
are talking politics.

5024
02:55:23,090 --> 02:55:23,550
Well, there you go.

5025
02:55:23,630 --> 02:55:24,710
He's in pursuit of damehood.

5026
02:55:25,110 --> 02:55:25,850
And I'm going to do this.

5027
02:55:27,190 --> 02:55:28,830
You've been dedouched.

5028
02:55:29,230 --> 02:55:32,110
Jerome Barthel is in Leland, North Carolina.

5029
02:55:32,210 --> 02:55:32,550
$100.

5030
02:55:32,950 --> 02:55:34,890
There he is, our Archduke of Luna, lover

5031
02:55:34,890 --> 02:55:35,850
of America and boobs.

5036
02:55:44,690 --> 02:55:47,150
I think we had Juraj recently, didn't we?

5037
02:55:47,250 --> 02:55:47,610
I'm not sure.

5038
02:55:47,710 --> 02:55:49,730
I seem to be coming more frequently.

5039
02:55:49,910 --> 02:55:51,870

I don't know.

5055
02:56:31,210 --> 02:56:31,890
Is he on the list?

5056
02:56:32,470 --> 02:56:33,410
Yeah, I presume he is.

5057
02:56:34,550 --> 02:56:35,950

5058
02:56:35,950 --> 02:56:36,610
Let me just check.

5059
02:56:36,730 --> 02:56:37,610
I want to make sure he's on the

5060
02:56:37,610 --> 02:56:37,850
list.

5061
02:56:38,070 --> 02:56:40,590
Michael, don't want to miss anybody.

5062
02:56:40,830 --> 02:56:41,830
Yeah, see, I knew it.

02:56:42,010 --> 02:56:42,970
I knew he was missed.

He loves you guys.

5089
02:57:31,790 --> 02:57:32,710
Thank you for all you do.

5090
02:57:32,770 --> 02:57:33,870
Don't say who it was from.

5091
02:57:33,870 --> 02:57:36,510
Oops, sorry about that.

5092
02:57:36,630 --> 02:57:37,370

02:57:37,850 --> 02:57:39,510

from Squim, Washington.

5097
02:57:46,330 --> 02:57:48,050
And we thank all of these donors, $50

5098
02:57:48,050 --> 02:57:48,790
and above.

5099
02:57:49,290 --> 02:57:51,070
Thank you to all those who came under

5100
02:57:51,070 --> 02:57:52,310
$50, of course.

5101
02:57:52,790 --> 02:57:55,330
We don't mention those for reasons of anonymity,

5102
02:57:55,390 --> 02:57:57,050
which is sometimes well-founded.

5103
02:57:57,430 --> 02:57:59,430
Although the spooks usually are much higher up

5104
02:57:59,430 --> 02:58:00,470
in the list.

5105
02:58:00,550 --> 02:58:01,990
Yes, they don't give us $50.

5106
02:58:01,990 --> 02:58:05,310
They do much better than that.

5107
02:58:05,690 --> 02:58:08,710
You can go to noagendadonations.com, support the

5108
02:58:08,710 --> 02:58:10,050
show anytime you want.

5109
02:58:10,110 --> 02:58:10,890
It's very simple.

5110
02:58:11,330 --> 02:58:13,650
Whatever amount you feel the show has delivered

5111
02:58:13,650 --> 02:58:15,190
in value to you, send it back to

5112
02:58:15,190 --> 02:58:15,350
us.

5113
02:58:15,410 --> 02:58:16,110
That's how it works.

5114
02:58:16,510 --> 02:58:19,810
And it is the only way to make

5115
02:58:19,810 --> 02:58:24,410
a podcast fair, balanced, honest, and give it

5116
02:58:24,410 --> 02:58:25,030
longevity.

5117
02:58:25,970 --> 02:58:28,430
noagendadonations.com, any amounts, any frequency.

5118
02:58:28,550 --> 02:58:30,110
You can set up a recurring donation if

5119
02:58:30,110 --> 02:58:30,350
you want.

5120
02:58:31,230 --> 02:58:32,190
noagendadonations.com.

5121
02:58:37,130 --> 02:58:38,910
So here are those birthdays.

5122
02:58:39,090 --> 02:58:41,170
Clint Young, his late father, Clark Young.

5123
02:58:41,310 --> 02:58:43,150
He would have turned 83 on the 7th.

5124
02:58:43,190 --> 02:58:45,010
So we say happy birthday to him.

5125
02:58:45,130 --> 02:58:46,150
Very nice note there, Clint.

5126
02:58:46,570 --> 02:58:48,950
Juraj Kodjiak wishes his son David a happy

5127
02:58:48,950 --> 02:58:49,170
one.

5128
02:58:49,230 --> 02:58:50,930
He turned 7 on the 7th yesterday.

5129
02:58:51,350 --> 02:58:53,390

5133
02:58:59,450 --> 02:59:00,010
happy birthday.

5134
02:59:00,170 --> 02:59:01,950

02:59:05,390 --> 02:59:06,330

5137
02:59:06,650 --> 02:59:09,430
Tiffany Kilgore wishes her little bro P a

5138
02:59:09,430 --> 02:59:09,970
happy birthday.

5139
02:59:10,090 --> 02:59:12,770
Chris Perry says happy birthday to Sir Selvarin.

5140
02:59:13,030 --> 02:59:14,930
And we wind up the list with Michael

5141
02:59:14,930 --> 02:59:15,530
Formanek.

5142
02:59:15,570 --> 02:59:16,190
Happy birthday.

5143
02:59:16,290 --> 02:59:17,250
It's his birthday today.

5144
02:59:17,630 --> 02:59:19,830
Congratulations on behalf of everybody here at the

5145
02:59:19,830 --> 02:59:21,690
best podcast in the universe.

5146
02:59:33,030 --> 02:59:35,710
And we do have an important title change

5147
02:59:35,710 --> 02:59:36,090
today.

5148
02:59:36,430 --> 02:59:39,850
Sir Danimal now upgrades on the peerage ladder

5149
02:59:39,850 --> 02:59:42,450
of the No Agenda peers, it is.

5150
02:59:42,550 --> 02:59:45,170
And he becomes Sir Danimal, Baron of the

5151
02:59:45,170 --> 02:59:46,050
Secret City.

5152
02:59:46,630 --> 02:59:49,210
And we congratulate him on moving up the

5153
02:59:49,210 --> 02:59:49,430
ladder.

5154
02:59:49,570 --> 02:59:51,430
We do have one knight to congratulate today.

5155
02:59:51,530 --> 02:59:53,150
So bring out your sword there.

5156
02:59:53,170 --> 02:59:54,350
Here's one.

5157
02:59:56,190 --> 02:59:58,990
Clint Young, thank you very much for your

5158
02:59:58,990 --> 03:00:00,890
support of the best podcast in the universe.

5159
03:00:01,470 --> 03:00:03,970
Thanks to your total support of $1,000

5160
03:00:03,970 --> 03:00:05,830
or more, we are very proud to pronounce

5161
03:00:05,830 --> 03:00:07,410
the KD as a knight of the No

5162
03:00:07,410 --> 03:00:08,270
Agenda Roundtable.

5163
03:00:08,430 --> 03:00:11,770
You shall henceforth be known as Sir Clintilius

5164
03:00:11,770 --> 03:00:13,570
of the Pacific Northwest.

5165
03:00:14,110 --> 03:00:16,570
Besides the requisite hookers and blow rent boys

5166
03:00:16,570 --> 03:00:19,090
in Chardonnay, we also have smoked brisket and

5167
03:00:19,090 --> 03:00:21,070
zip fizz by request for you.

5168
03:00:21,070 --> 03:00:23,250
If that doesn't do it, you can always

5169
03:00:23,250 --> 03:00:26,190
join the dames and the knights in our

5170
03:00:26,190 --> 03:00:28,570
bong hits and bourbon, sparkling cider and escorts,

5171
03:00:28,790 --> 03:00:31,870
ginger ale and gerbils, vodka and vanilla, geishas

5172
03:00:31,870 --> 03:00:33,830
and sake, breast milk and pablum.

5173
03:00:34,110 --> 03:00:36,490
And obviously, there's always the mutton and the

5174
03:00:36,490 --> 03:00:36,870
mead.

5175
03:00:37,350 --> 03:00:38,950
It's quite the staple here at the No

5176
03:00:38,950 --> 03:00:39,470
Agenda show.

5177
03:00:39,590 --> 03:00:42,410
Go to noagenderings.com, our brand new knight.

5178
03:00:42,570 --> 03:00:44,530
And let us know what ring size you

5179
03:00:44,530 --> 03:00:46,950
bear and send that to us, along with

5180
03:00:46,950 --> 03:00:49,890
the proper address to send your beautiful knight

5181
03:00:49,890 --> 03:00:50,050
ring.

5182
03:00:50,050 --> 03:00:51,010
It is a signet ring.

5183
03:00:51,130 --> 03:00:52,610
So with that, you get some wax.

5184
03:00:52,730 --> 03:00:54,290
You can use that to seal your important

5185
03:00:54,290 --> 03:00:57,210
correspondence, as well as a certificate of authenticity.

5186
03:00:57,390 --> 03:00:59,430
Thank you very much for supporting the No

5187
03:00:59,430 --> 03:01:01,550
Agenda show, known as the best podcast in

5188
03:01:01,550 --> 03:01:02,130
the universe.

5189
03:01:06,730 --> 03:01:11,150
Well, the meetups are kicking off once again

5190
03:01:11,150 --> 03:01:11,850
for the new year.

5191
03:01:11,950 --> 03:01:13,730
We have a nice list, which you can

5192
03:01:13,730 --> 03:01:15,390
find at noagendameetups.com.

5193
03:01:15,390 --> 03:01:18,410
These are gatherings that are not sponsored by

5194
03:01:18,410 --> 03:01:18,790
the show.

5195
03:01:18,790 --> 03:01:20,290
You don't need our permission to do it.

5196
03:01:20,590 --> 03:01:21,970
You just say, hey, I'm going to organize

5197
03:01:21,970 --> 03:01:22,250
it.

5198
03:01:22,290 --> 03:01:24,150
You list it on noagendameetups.com.

5199
03:01:24,490 --> 03:01:25,690
We'll mention it on the show.

5200
03:01:25,850 --> 03:01:26,990
And we always love it when you give

5201
03:01:26,990 --> 03:01:27,530
us a report.

5202
03:01:27,850 --> 03:01:29,390
Let us know how everything went down.

5203
03:01:29,610 --> 03:01:31,150
Fort Wayne Club 33, I think it's the

5204
03:01:31,150 --> 03:01:32,490
third time they tried to send me their

5205
03:01:32,490 --> 03:01:34,790
meetup report from just after Christmas.

5206
03:01:34,930 --> 03:01:36,130
So I'll play it here for you.

5207
03:01:36,270 --> 03:01:37,930
Adam and John, this is Shannon reporting in

5208
03:01:37,930 --> 03:01:38,550
from Fort Wayne.

5209
03:01:38,710 --> 03:01:39,490
Having a good time.

5210
03:01:39,750 --> 03:01:40,650
We'll see you at the next one.

5211
03:01:40,850 --> 03:01:41,970
Hi, it's Shelly in Fort Wayne.

Support me, please.

5216
03:01:47,530 --> 03:01:49,270
This is Michelle from Fort Wayne.

5217
03:01:49,470 --> 03:01:50,250
Happy New Year.

5218
03:01:50,570 --> 03:01:52,570

5221
03:01:55,410 --> 03:01:56,910
And this is Michael from Fort Wayne.

5222
03:01:57,170 --> 03:01:57,930
Happy New Year.

5223
03:01:58,310 --> 03:01:59,550
And John, I don't know if this is

5224
03:01:59,550 --> 03:02:01,470
a tip or not, but I've heard, according

5225
03:02:01,470 --> 03:02:04,350
to AI, that the six-sided yellow stop

5226
03:02:04,350 --> 03:02:06,110
sign was invented in Nauvoo, Indiana.

5227
03:02:06,570 --> 03:02:07,610
In the morning.

5228
03:02:07,870 --> 03:02:08,470
In the morning.

5229
03:02:08,630 --> 03:02:10,890
Wow, very lackluster in the morning there.

5230
03:02:11,170 --> 03:02:12,970
And of course, nothing from your server.

5231
03:02:13,150 --> 03:02:14,490
Come on, people, step it up a little

5232
03:02:14,490 --> 03:02:14,850
bit.

5233
03:02:14,850 --> 03:02:17,990
There is a meetup taking place today.

Go to noagentandmeetups.com.

5257
03:02:58,950 --> 03:03:00,150
See if there's one near you.

5258
03:03:00,250 --> 03:03:01,490
You will love it.

5259
03:03:01,810 --> 03:03:04,050
You will get connection that always brings protection.

5260
03:03:04,190 --> 03:03:06,070
These people will be your first responders in

5261
03:03:06,070 --> 03:03:06,510
an emergency.

5262
03:03:06,810 --> 03:03:09,290
If you can't find one near you, it's

5263
03:03:09,290 --> 03:03:09,870
real simple.

5264
03:03:10,050 --> 03:03:10,870
Start one yourself.

5265
03:03:11,010 --> 03:03:12,750
List it at noagentandmeetups.com.

5266
03:03:12,750 --> 03:03:14,550
Always a party.

5267
03:03:30,630 --> 03:03:37,190
Yeah, baby, it's always like a party.

5268
03:03:37,330 --> 03:03:38,430
And of course, at this point in the

5269
03:03:38,430 --> 03:03:40,050
show, as we wind it down, it doesn't

5270
03:03:40,050 --> 03:03:42,070
mean that there's any reason to leave because

5271
03:03:42,070 --> 03:03:44,110
we have tons of show left for you.

5272
03:03:45,190 --> 03:03:46,950
Including John's tip of the day.

5273
03:03:47,270 --> 03:03:51,470
We have our end of show mixes.

5274
03:03:51,890 --> 03:03:54,530
And we always like to check out some

5275
03:03:54,530 --> 03:03:56,430
possible end of show isos.

5276
03:03:56,510 --> 03:03:57,510
I don't know why we do it.

5277
03:03:57,790 --> 03:03:58,370
It's just fun.

5278
03:03:58,530 --> 03:04:00,230
It's kind of man versus the machine these

5279
03:04:00,230 --> 03:04:01,450
days with John's AI.

5280
03:04:02,050 --> 03:04:04,150
And I am over clipped for the iso.

5281
03:04:04,250 --> 03:04:05,830
So I'll just play them and you listen.

5282
03:04:05,970 --> 03:04:06,450
Here we go.

5283
03:04:06,630 --> 03:04:07,490
Number one.

5284
03:04:07,770 --> 03:04:09,150
We nailed it again.

5285
03:04:10,050 --> 03:04:11,810
It's always a classic from Alex.

5286
03:04:12,590 --> 03:04:13,430
There's this one.

5287
03:04:13,430 --> 03:04:15,630
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

5288
03:04:15,690 --> 03:04:16,470
That was great.

5289
03:04:17,370 --> 03:04:18,290
Come on.

5290
03:04:18,890 --> 03:04:19,950
I like that one.

5291
03:04:20,410 --> 03:04:21,190
You should.

5292
03:04:21,270 --> 03:04:22,110
It was fantastic.

5293
03:04:22,910 --> 03:04:24,310
Love this show.

5294
03:04:26,110 --> 03:04:26,950
This one.

5295
03:04:27,010 --> 03:04:27,850
I'm getting tingles.

5296
03:04:27,950 --> 03:04:29,070
That is so cool.

5297
03:04:29,790 --> 03:04:31,030
Tingles, tingles.

5298
03:04:31,490 --> 03:04:32,510
And then this one.

5299
03:04:32,750 --> 03:04:34,170
Damn, love the pod.

5300
03:04:35,810 --> 03:04:38,190
How can you not reject that one?

5301
03:04:38,310 --> 03:04:40,270
It is rejected, but I got to play

5302
03:04:40,270 --> 03:04:40,770
it anyway.

5303
03:04:42,130 --> 03:04:44,710
OK, well, then I relent and I'll give

5304
03:04:44,710 --> 03:04:47,150
you the wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow,

5305
03:04:47,570 --> 03:04:47,790
wow, wow.

5306
03:04:47,890 --> 03:04:48,710
Thank you very much.

5307
03:04:48,890 --> 03:04:50,010
But we're not going anywhere.

5308
03:04:50,270 --> 03:04:52,070
First, it's time for John's tip of the

5309
03:04:52,070 --> 03:04:52,730
day.

5310
03:05:03,350 --> 03:05:04,070
All right.

5311
03:05:04,130 --> 03:05:05,930
Well, we've been trying to keep things low

5312
03:05:05,930 --> 03:05:06,430
priced.

5313
03:05:06,550 --> 03:05:07,710
I don't like to bring in, you know,

5314
03:05:07,750 --> 03:05:09,990
we had people complained about us recommending a

5315
03:05:09,990 --> 03:05:14,230
TV, TV that I told you that wasn't

5316
03:05:14,230 --> 03:05:14,950
a good idea.

5317
03:05:15,130 --> 03:05:16,750
I didn't feel it was a good idea

5318
03:05:16,750 --> 03:05:18,370
for people who need to know if people

5319
03:05:18,370 --> 03:05:19,190
needed a TV.

5320
03:05:19,330 --> 03:05:20,150
It was a great idea.

5321
03:05:20,290 --> 03:05:20,570
Yes.

5322
03:05:20,890 --> 03:05:21,070
Yeah.

5323
03:05:21,410 --> 03:05:24,210
Well, I got another expensive item here.

5324
03:05:24,510 --> 03:05:25,610
Oh, OK.

5325
03:05:25,750 --> 03:05:26,950
Two hundred ninety nine dollars.

5326
03:05:27,110 --> 03:05:27,970
Well, that's up there.

5327
03:05:30,120 --> 03:05:32,280
And I recommend if people haven't moved to

5328
03:05:32,280 --> 03:05:37,100
these these high density hard disks, I'd say

5329
03:05:37,100 --> 03:05:40,120
start now because this is doesn't even it's

5330
03:05:40,120 --> 03:05:41,100
not even a bare drive.

5331
03:05:41,100 --> 03:05:42,940
This is in one of the enclosures.

5332
03:05:43,180 --> 03:05:47,880
This is a twenty two terabyte Seagate drive.

5333
03:05:47,980 --> 03:05:48,980
Holy moly.

5334
03:05:49,120 --> 03:05:49,960
I need this.

5335
03:05:50,700 --> 03:05:51,360
Yes, you do.

5336
03:05:52,000 --> 03:05:53,540
Two hundred ninety nine bucks.

5337
03:05:53,900 --> 03:05:57,220
These high density Seagate drives have been out

5338
03:05:57,220 --> 03:05:58,600
for about three or four years.

5339
03:05:58,600 --> 03:06:00,060
What does high density mean?

5340
03:06:00,220 --> 03:06:02,180
That means it's got more than 20 terabytes.

5341
03:06:02,500 --> 03:06:05,140
Oh, I said thought it was something special.

5342
03:06:05,180 --> 03:06:06,000
I didn't understand.

5343
03:06:06,180 --> 03:06:08,220
Well, it is special because two hundred ninety

5344
03:06:08,220 --> 03:06:09,600
nine bucks is what you used to pay.

5345
03:06:09,600 --> 03:06:11,980
I remember when I was a kid, I

5346
03:06:11,980 --> 03:06:13,440
got that was comdex.

5347
03:06:13,580 --> 03:06:13,740
Yeah.

5348
03:06:13,860 --> 03:06:15,900
And I forgot what hard disk company, one

5349
03:06:15,900 --> 03:06:18,660
of the hard Mac store or Prairie Tech

5350
03:06:18,660 --> 03:06:20,120
or one of these guys that is long

5351
03:06:20,120 --> 03:06:21,140
since out of business.

5352
03:06:22,100 --> 03:06:23,900
This was way back.

5353
03:06:23,980 --> 03:06:27,240
And this is when the nine terabyte drive

5354
03:06:27,240 --> 03:06:28,120
first showed up.

5355
03:06:28,200 --> 03:06:28,600
I'm sorry.

5356
03:06:28,760 --> 03:06:31,780
Let me back up the nine gigabyte drive.

5357
03:06:32,060 --> 03:06:32,400
Hold on.

5358
03:06:32,860 --> 03:06:33,260
Hold on.

5359
03:06:33,340 --> 03:06:33,600
Hold on.

5360
03:06:34,340 --> 03:06:35,760
Nineteen eighty seven.

5361
03:06:36,420 --> 03:06:37,380
I bought.

5362
03:06:38,080 --> 03:06:42,160
I think it was a Seagate external SCSI

5363
03:06:42,160 --> 03:06:44,480
connected drive for my Mac.

5364
03:06:44,560 --> 03:06:47,740
Plus it was two hundred ninety nine dollars

5365
03:06:47,740 --> 03:06:50,780
for 20 megabytes.

5366
03:06:52,820 --> 03:06:55,280
So this guy says that sounds right.

5367
03:06:55,380 --> 03:06:55,640
Yeah.

5368
03:06:55,880 --> 03:06:57,460
So this guy says to me.

5369
03:06:58,040 --> 03:06:59,600
It was nine gigabytes.

5370
03:07:00,000 --> 03:07:01,400
This is the story coming out.

5371
03:07:01,480 --> 03:07:02,820
These nine gigabyte drives.

5372
03:07:03,360 --> 03:07:06,380
And there was about about two ninety nine.

5373
03:07:07,000 --> 03:07:08,660
And it was like the guy.

5374
03:07:09,540 --> 03:07:13,180
One of the companies out of business says

5375
03:07:13,180 --> 03:07:15,140
to me, I don't know what these guys

5376
03:07:15,140 --> 03:07:15,560
are thinking.

5377
03:07:15,680 --> 03:07:18,140
Who is going to trust nine gigabytes on

5378
03:07:18,140 --> 03:07:18,900
one spindle?

5379
03:07:20,580 --> 03:07:21,480
That's the exact.

5380
03:07:21,720 --> 03:07:21,920
Yeah.

5381
03:07:21,960 --> 03:07:24,280
Well, you get the heads touching that disk.

5382
03:07:24,340 --> 03:07:24,880
You're screwed.

5383
03:07:25,480 --> 03:07:27,920
So you got you got your nine gigabytes

5384
03:07:27,920 --> 03:07:29,500
lost to risky.

5385
03:07:29,500 --> 03:07:33,180
So now we have twenty two terabytes.

5386
03:07:33,440 --> 03:07:34,400
Now, do you have one of these?

5387
03:07:35,080 --> 03:07:35,980
No, no, I have an 18.

5388
03:07:36,360 --> 03:07:37,960
But I'm getting one of these now because

5389
03:07:37,960 --> 03:07:38,820
I looked at the over.

5390
03:07:38,920 --> 03:07:40,500
I looked at all the reviews and everything.

5391
03:07:40,660 --> 03:07:42,740
This is the thing is that when they

5392
03:07:42,740 --> 03:07:46,540
had the 18s, which were nice, they were

5393
03:07:46,540 --> 03:07:47,140
bare drive.

5394
03:07:47,240 --> 03:07:48,220
So you had to buy one of the

5395
03:07:48,220 --> 03:07:50,300
enclosures or you had to put it in.

5396
03:07:50,740 --> 03:07:51,840
No, you don't want that.

5397
03:07:51,880 --> 03:07:52,520
That's a pain.

5398
03:07:52,860 --> 03:07:54,100
Well, you do if you have the enclosures.

5399
03:07:54,200 --> 03:07:55,360
The enclosures are OK.

5400
03:07:55,700 --> 03:07:55,880
Yeah.

5401
03:07:55,960 --> 03:07:57,140
And how big is this thing?

5402
03:07:57,200 --> 03:07:57,920
How big is it?

5403
03:07:57,920 --> 03:07:59,580
It's a three and a half, three point

5404
03:07:59,580 --> 03:08:00,440
five inch drive.

5405
03:08:00,580 --> 03:08:01,240
It's small.

5406
03:08:02,060 --> 03:08:03,360
Is it is it does it have it

5407
03:08:03,360 --> 03:08:04,980
has a case around it has a case.

5408
03:08:05,120 --> 03:08:06,860
Yeah, it is with the connector.

5409
03:08:06,940 --> 03:08:09,200
You just put in a USB 3.0

5410
03:08:09,200 --> 03:08:11,560
connector on it and and you're ready to

5411
03:08:11,560 --> 03:08:11,720
go.

5412
03:08:11,840 --> 03:08:13,440
It's it's it's a beauty.

5413
03:08:14,220 --> 03:08:16,280
And two ninety nine.

5414
03:08:16,420 --> 03:08:17,340
Twenty two terabytes.

5415
03:08:17,580 --> 03:08:18,340
Don't fool around.

5416
03:08:18,760 --> 03:08:20,720
Let's start here and we'll go from there.

5417
03:08:21,220 --> 03:08:22,740
I'd highly recommend it.

5418
03:08:23,040 --> 03:08:26,380
The Seagate high club is a high capacity.

5419
03:08:26,380 --> 03:08:28,560
I shouldn't use high density because it's confusing.

5420
03:08:28,900 --> 03:08:31,160
The high capacity Seagate drives of dynamite.

5421
03:08:31,260 --> 03:08:32,360
Well, you kind of had me at high

5422
03:08:32,360 --> 03:08:32,780
density.

5423
03:08:32,900 --> 03:08:34,260
Now you're like pulling back.

5424
03:08:34,320 --> 03:08:35,260
It was high capacity.

5425
03:08:35,460 --> 03:08:36,580
That's not the same thing.

5426
03:08:37,300 --> 03:08:38,020
It is to me.

5427
03:08:38,860 --> 03:08:39,780
There it is, ladies and gentlemen.

5428
03:08:39,920 --> 03:08:41,420
Find all of them at no agenda and

5429
03:08:41,420 --> 03:08:43,160
fun dot com and tip of the day

5430
03:08:43,160 --> 03:08:43,700
dot net.

5431
03:08:50,120 --> 03:08:53,420
And sometimes at home created by Dana Brunetti.

5432
03:08:55,440 --> 03:08:57,840
Wow, these tips are off the hook, man.

5433
03:08:59,160 --> 03:09:00,220
And by the way, I did get to

5434
03:09:00,220 --> 03:09:01,400
joke about no bone.

5435
03:09:01,980 --> 03:09:02,120
Yep.

5436
03:09:02,360 --> 03:09:02,920
Yeah, that was good.

5437
03:09:03,200 --> 03:09:06,260
And also I should mention Ferris State won

5438
03:09:06,260 --> 03:09:08,020
the Division two football championship.

5439
03:09:08,020 --> 03:09:09,980
It'd be great to have a shirt from

5440
03:09:09,980 --> 03:09:11,560
a hoodie or a sweatshirt.

5441
03:09:11,680 --> 03:09:13,100
So I can go for a sweatshirt now

5442
03:09:13,100 --> 03:09:13,500
and again.

5443
03:09:13,700 --> 03:09:16,300
And I do have the our baron of

5444
03:09:16,300 --> 03:09:17,920
Bozeman is going to send me a hoodie

5445
03:09:17,920 --> 03:09:19,000
for Montana State.

5446
03:09:19,120 --> 03:09:19,880
So that's a plus.

5447
03:09:20,780 --> 03:09:22,720
So I don't have to dress myself anymore.

5448
03:09:23,500 --> 03:09:25,240
Hey, if you stick around and no agenda

5449
03:09:25,240 --> 03:09:28,680
stream dot com, we have random thoughts coming

5450
03:09:28,680 --> 03:09:29,000
up.

5451
03:09:29,160 --> 03:09:30,800
Sir Darren O'Neill on the show.

5452
03:09:31,420 --> 03:09:32,440
That should be fun.

5453
03:09:33,480 --> 03:09:36,300
And end of show mixes from MVP plur

5454
03:09:36,300 --> 03:09:38,020
and D's laughs.

5455
03:09:38,280 --> 03:09:40,500
So it's a mix of slop and knots,

5456
03:09:40,680 --> 03:09:42,180
which is always good to see.

5457
03:09:42,800 --> 03:09:44,980
And please remember that we are the best

5458
03:09:44,980 --> 03:09:46,200
podcast in the universe.

5459
03:09:46,400 --> 03:09:48,160
We are not captured by the audience.

5460
03:09:48,160 --> 03:09:50,520
And we need your support by going to

no agenda donations dot com.

5462
03:09:52,120 --> 03:09:54,920
And we will return at our regularly scheduled

5463
03:09:54,920 --> 03:09:58,940
time on Sunday for the best three hours

5464
03:09:58,940 --> 03:10:00,720
plus of media deconstruction.

5465
03:10:01,000 --> 03:10:02,720
They don't do anything unless it's a novel.

5466
03:10:03,140 --> 03:10:04,080
Coming to you from the heart of the

5467
03:10:04,080 --> 03:10:06,220
Texas Hill Country, Fredericksburg, Texas in the morning.

5468
03:10:06,300 --> 03:10:07,260
Everybody, I'm Adam Curry.

5469
03:10:07,700 --> 03:10:09,700
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I remain

5470
03:10:09,700 --> 03:10:10,820
is I'm John C.

5471
03:10:10,880 --> 03:10:11,220
Dvorak.

5472
03:10:11,300 --> 03:10:12,620
We'll see you on Sunday.

5473
03:10:12,720 --> 03:10:14,880
Remember us at no agenda donations dot com.

5474
03:10:14,880 --> 03:10:17,120
Until then, adios, fo fo's, a hooey, hooey

5475
03:10:17,120 --> 03:10:17,760
and such.

5476
03:10:18,100 --> 03:10:20,400
Inside the halls where the laws get made.

5477
03:10:20,660 --> 03:10:23,100
A perfect hand is deathly played.

5478
03:10:23,540 --> 03:10:26,460
While the tickers tape and the markets swing.

5479
03:10:26,800 --> 03:10:29,100
Nancy's body low on the next big thing.

5480
03:10:29,140 --> 03:10:32,080
From tech giant speaks to the valley floor.

5481
03:10:32,400 --> 03:10:34,760
Lucy's portfolio grows a little more.

5482
03:10:35,080 --> 03:10:45,300
A show of hearts goes.

5483
03:10:46,440 --> 03:10:49,120
As technologies advance, so do our adversaries.

5484
03:10:49,300 --> 03:10:51,460
But here at the War Department, we are

5485
03:10:51,460 --> 03:10:53,160
not sitting idly by.

5486
03:10:54,960 --> 03:10:55,680
Nice.

5487
03:10:56,280 --> 03:10:59,900
Unlock new possibilities across your daily workflows.

5488
03:11:00,360 --> 03:11:03,320
The best case scenario is that AI diffuses

5489
03:11:03,320 --> 03:11:06,000
into everything that we do.

5490
03:11:07,000 --> 03:11:09,200
If anyone builds it, everyone dies.

5491
03:11:09,640 --> 03:11:10,060
Wow.

5492
03:11:12,380 --> 03:11:13,660
Format content.

5493
03:11:13,900 --> 03:11:16,440
As technologies advance, so do our adversaries.

5494
03:11:17,060 --> 03:11:17,780
Nice.

5495
03:11:18,280 --> 03:11:20,440
It crashed as soon as everyone noticed the

5496
03:11:20,440 --> 03:11:20,920
icon.

5497
03:11:21,100 --> 03:11:22,600
Grok five nine.

5498
03:11:22,600 --> 03:11:24,640
Chad GPT two point thousand.

5499
03:11:24,640 --> 03:11:25,780
What else can we do for you today?

5500
03:11:25,860 --> 03:11:26,940
It's hard to predict the plays.

5501
03:11:29,940 --> 03:11:30,960
It's all better.

5502
03:11:32,100 --> 03:11:35,680
Hands under a skyscraper crushed by the AIs.

5503
03:11:36,080 --> 03:11:37,820
The opposite of entropy.

5504
03:11:39,180 --> 03:11:40,220
Smarter AIs.

5505
03:11:40,380 --> 03:11:41,920
It's a violation of the laws of physics.

5506
03:11:42,160 --> 03:11:44,540
The entropy is what happens all the time.

5507
03:11:44,760 --> 03:11:46,340
Just stay kind of dumb.

5508
03:11:47,040 --> 03:11:47,560
Okay.

5509
03:11:47,800 --> 03:11:49,200
The opposite of entropy.

5510
03:11:50,880 --> 03:11:53,520
Meanwhile, stay kind of smarter AIs.

5511
03:11:53,740 --> 03:11:56,420
They're going against the very laws of nature,

5512
03:11:56,620 --> 03:11:57,260
Mr. Neal.

5513
03:11:57,400 --> 03:11:59,660
There's nothing but blatant bullcrap.

5514
03:12:02,860 --> 03:12:04,260
Here's your intelligence.

5515
03:12:06,440 --> 03:12:07,320
You're an idiot.

5516
03:12:07,840 --> 03:12:08,960
Why do you say that?

5517
03:12:09,240 --> 03:12:10,060
This is terrible.

5518
03:12:10,520 --> 03:12:10,980
Dumb lady.

5519
03:12:11,180 --> 03:12:12,480
Meanwhile, is it true?

5520
03:12:13,260 --> 03:12:15,640
He's an idiot.

5521
03:12:16,720 --> 03:12:17,900
This is terrible.

5522
03:12:19,200 --> 03:12:19,960
He's an idiot.

5523
03:12:20,180 --> 03:12:20,700
He's an idiot.

5524
03:12:20,780 --> 03:12:21,300
You're an idiot.

5525
03:12:21,860 --> 03:12:23,840
The opposite of entropy.

5526
03:12:23,980 --> 03:12:24,560
It's hard to predict the plays.

5527
03:12:24,720 --> 03:12:25,840
It's easier to predict the winner.

5528
03:12:26,780 --> 03:12:27,440
They're dumb.

5529
03:12:28,200 --> 03:12:29,320
Safe and beneficial.

5530
03:12:29,640 --> 03:12:31,540
Crashed as soon as everyone noticed the icon.

5531
03:12:33,160 --> 03:12:34,440
It's only going to get worse.

5532
03:12:34,540 --> 03:12:36,520
If anyone bills it, everyone dies.

5533
03:12:36,800 --> 03:12:36,900
It's bad.

5534
03:12:36,960 --> 03:12:38,220
I think you're dead right.

5535
03:12:38,360 --> 03:12:39,500
Man, it's tiring.

5536
03:12:39,980 --> 03:12:41,360
This is terrible.

5537
03:12:42,260 --> 03:12:43,800
What a bunch of dicks.

5538
03:12:44,520 --> 03:12:49,640
Please welcome Maryland representative, Jamie Raskin.

5539
03:12:53,800 --> 03:12:55,240
And where Franklin D.

5540
03:12:55,620 --> 03:12:59,100
Roosevelt was re-nominated by Democrats in 1940

5541
03:12:59,100 --> 03:13:02,200
to defeat fascist dictator.

5542
03:13:13,900 --> 03:13:18,080
On a former show on NBC, calling Kamala

5543
03:13:18,080 --> 03:13:20,460
the vice president of the United States.

5544
03:13:20,560 --> 03:13:21,700
October surprise.

5545
03:13:21,920 --> 03:13:22,560
They heightened stakes.

5546
03:13:22,560 --> 03:13:23,720
She has been the vice president of the

5547
03:13:23,720 --> 03:13:24,220
United States?

5548
03:13:24,240 --> 03:13:26,760
Calling her the vice president of the United

5549
03:13:26,760 --> 03:13:27,260
States.

5550
03:13:27,380 --> 03:13:30,220
I mean, the DNC lending support.

5551
03:13:30,420 --> 03:13:33,460
Vasectomy, abortion, mobile clinics outside to help their

5552
03:13:33,460 --> 03:13:34,300
voters abort.

5553
03:13:35,120 --> 03:13:38,180
I mean, champion these women's rights to choose.

5554
03:13:38,260 --> 03:13:39,060
This is more.

5555
03:13:39,600 --> 03:13:40,980
To say right, we lose.

5556
03:13:40,980 --> 03:13:43,880
No enthusiasm or grassroots support.

5557
03:13:44,060 --> 03:13:46,200
Donors tied to the ticket seeming like a

5558
03:13:46,200 --> 03:13:46,880
last resort.

5559
03:13:47,120 --> 03:13:47,960
No activate.

5560
03:13:48,140 --> 03:13:49,600
It's our time of the year.

5561
03:13:49,880 --> 03:13:52,500
Scaring black folks with the chance for more

5562
03:13:52,500 --> 03:13:53,060
years.

5563
03:13:54,560 --> 03:13:56,100
For more years.

5564
03:13:56,620 --> 03:13:59,300
Shyster show up and take advantage of people's

5565
03:13:59,300 --> 03:14:02,120
goodwill and generosity for more years.

5566
03:14:03,940 --> 03:14:06,920
I'm saying it's the most important election of

5567
03:14:06,920 --> 03:14:07,460
our life.

5568
03:14:07,540 --> 03:14:09,380
At this point, the only choice I want

5569
03:14:09,380 --> 03:14:10,960
is having kids and a wife.

5570
03:14:10,960 --> 03:14:13,320
Yeah, it's a vibe.

5571
03:14:13,460 --> 03:14:14,060
It's a vibe.

5572
03:14:14,220 --> 03:14:19,000
And tell me why I'm running through the

5573
03:14:19,000 --> 03:14:21,200
fire while we're breaking through all around.

5574
03:14:21,300 --> 03:14:22,360
It's boots on the ground.

5575
03:14:22,560 --> 03:14:24,080
Sticky boots on the ground.

5576
03:14:24,200 --> 03:14:26,700
Listen to the echo of the heavy metal

5577
03:14:26,700 --> 03:14:27,180
sound.

5578
03:14:27,240 --> 03:14:28,660
We got boots on the ground.

5579
03:14:28,780 --> 03:14:30,380
Keep the boots on the ground.

5580
03:14:30,740 --> 03:14:55,930
Yeah, the

5581
03:14:55,930 --> 03:14:59,210
best podcast in the universe.

5582
03:15:00,250 --> 03:15:00,710
Mofo.

5583
03:15:01,050 --> 03:15:04,290
Dvorak.org slash N A.

5584
03:15:04,630 --> 03:15:05,070
Wow.

5585
03:15:05,190 --> 03:15:05,630
Wowie.

5586
03:15:05,710 --> 03:15:06,630
Wow, wow, wow.

5587
03:15:06,730 --> 03:15:07,430
That was great.
