I guess from us, but you also must buy a rug. Adam curry, John
C. Dvorak.
It's Thursday, December 4 2014. Time for your gizmo nation media
assassination episode 675. This is no agenda, time warping
through the Van Allen belts from home base and FEMA Region six
here in Austin, Texas in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam
curry
and from Northern Silicon Valley where it's all wet. And John C.
Dvorak. Hill. Wow.
I guess that was a little short on the intro. You were Yeah, I
think I pulled something out and then I thought you would have
more?
No, when he was fine. No, it doesn't move. Loose. It worked.
loosey goosey
anything happened in the world?
No. It took the day off the world took the day off.
Well, they finally done it John. They finally got the little race
war going. Finally, finally they've done it.
Most people most people black and white aren't interested in
race war. No, it's not interest. I mean, there's a bunch of
people that like to incite race wars but most people don't want
it
on what you mean under with a we understand under a race war. I
think it is it's the conclusions that people draw that I find
interesting. You know, I mean
what do they like what?
Oh, white privilege. Oh, yeah. Yeah, this kind of stuff that
cops everywhere are just hunting down black kids.
That's pretty much why kids get hunted down to
and but that's not that's not that's not as good as now. No,
that's not the conclusion of the race war. Unfortunately. You
have an opinion. I mean, it's unavoidable. This is the only
thing that's been on
the clip from the chokehold update. Okay, hold
on a second. Let me get the chokehold update doesn't doesn't
require any any intro
chokehold
but he also call for calm, as did New York City Mayor Bill de
Blasio who urged nonviolent protest, the officer Daniel
Pantaleo, issued a statement saying it is never my intention
to harm anyone. And I feel very bad about the death of Mr.
Garner.
De Blasio asked for for nonviolent protests. Isn't he
the mayor?
He's the He's the mayor of New York City. Yes.
Why is he asking for protests at all? Isn't he that run in the
place? It's his fault?
No, but there you go. Mayor say let's have
nonviolent protests over this. Does anyone find that peculiar?
Yeah, I find all of this peculiar, but it seems to be
seriously John, it seems that this is really there's a lot of
people all in on this. I'm loving the black voices like
Charles Barkley. I love how he's coming out and talking about
this. Did you see this Sheriff David Clark. He's from
Milwaukee. Did you see him to speak at all? No, I want a
longer clip. I want to play that in the moment.
Well, I have a Ferguson clip that probably should be played,
okay. Just to give our audience and kind of a deeper
understanding of the difference between our show and shows like
democracy now. Police?
I'm sorry. Oops, did you not want me to do that? Yeah.
No. Well, you you've been jumping on these a little early.
When you find them like you're surprised.
I waited there was this long pause and like, Okay, I'll hit
it now.
Yeah, well, actually, you can hit it now. But I let me just
set it up anyway. Just to make sure that the people can see the
difference between our show because we played we're the only
show and I've said in the newsletter that played the
entire clip of Michael Brown's dad exhorting the crowd to burn
down the place, right? Yes, it was about 30 seconds or
whatever. And this is what you get from democracy. Now.
Police in Missouri say the stepfather of Michael Brown is
under investigation for potential incitement of video
taken just after the grand jury decision not to indict Officer
Darren Wilson for Brown's death shows Louis head and an
emotional outburst he seen saying burn this bleep down.
No, no clip at all.
And he said, burns his bleep down.
Because God forbid we say the word bitch.
Wow. I found that disgusting.
To hear it is again, it's all about the response and what I
find it interesting to see what the response of the administer
administration is, by the way, just looking at Ferguson and
what makes the news? You know, for weeks now, and certainly in
the past 48 hours, this has all been Busey lists and lists of
here's all the black men and black boys who are black, who
had been killed by police have never, ever have I seen a list
in the past, at least the past 10 years of the black boys and
white boys killed in Iraq, Afghanistan, you never see that.
You know, just one of these things I notice. And then we
have black men killed while resisting arrest. Bill Cosby,
still at large, just protect him. But if you want to
understand what really happened, a lot of you certainly in
America should probably not try to get a jury duty and go sit on
a jury and see any of you. I'm sure you've been on jury. John,
I'm sure you've you've done that. No,
I've been taken to jury duty have gone and sat there for two
days and then told at the very end. Well, you're a journalist,
we don't want you on the jury that
says I never got on the jury either, because I wasn't, you
know, it wasn't in the media. So they wouldn't let me in. But
lots of people have done jury duty, and it's a little more
nuanced than the way it's being portrayed. And of course, this
this New York choking, A is very suddenly being connected to
Staten Island. When you know that that's code, right? No, for
Republicans? Oh, yeah. Never Never expected Staten Island to
the to indict. Now, because it's as Republicans there. Then we
have the see, what do we have? President Obama, we're
going to look at this politically, I'd have to say
that there has been, you know, in retrospect, Obama has done
absolutely nothing for the black community.
Oh, the black community. There are lots of black voices coming
out and saying that and calling him and holder race baiters,
including Charles Barkley, which I think is yes, he's great. I
finally, but listen to the words, short clip period,
specifically the words that the President said,
I said, this is an issue that we've been dealing with for too
long. And it's time for us to make more progress than we've
made. And I'm not interested in talk, I'm interested in action.
And I am absolutely committed as President of the United States,
to making sure that we have a country in which everybody
believes in the core principle that we are equal under the law.
So he's not saying we're everyone is equal under the law.
He says what everyone believes they're equal under the law, and
you really accentuated that too. Or am I just seeing too much
reading too much into this?
I think Well, I would say just a superficially you're reading too
much into it. But yeah, that's what he does. Yeah, exactly.
Now, this is leading to something which we may differ,
in opinion on. This is not
a problem. Simply Ferguson, Missouri. This is a problem that
is national. It is a solvable problem. But as one that
unfortunately spikes after one event, and then fades into the
background until something else happens.
So what exactly is President Obama proposing? And will it be
enough to quell public anger? Well, he's calling for Congress
to approve $263 million of funding that would pay for
50,000 police body cameras, it would also pay for law
enforcement training for officers, the idea to build
trust between police and the communities they serve.
So first, there's the the the crookedness, or the twisted
nature of needing a quarter of a billion dollars for body
cameras, when all of this military industrial complex
stuff is being gifted straight through from the Defense
Department. Like that. Yeah. Right down to what is it
bayonets?
Right, bayonets bearkats multimillion dollar devices. But
now we need devices, sound machines, and all the rest of
now they can't afford body cameras. And this body camera
thing is a big is a big deal in a lot of different ways. Because
when it's been employed, all of police brutality drops, the
complaints drop all these things change because the cops are now
surveilling themselves. But you have places like Seattle who
tried it and then they decided it was too complicated. They
didn't like the idea there was basically there's both Seattle
and San Francisco police departments notoriously corrupt
and and mean and you know, they're just bastards
essentially. And they won't wear these cameras because it will
show what they're up to and they can't do that. So they take that
but eventually I think these cops are gonna have to be camera
eyes. Now they the one thing that bitching about as well,
it's too difficult if you because they gotta turn them on
and off do to turn them on and off you have them do the coolest
system is that cameras going 24/7 They, when the policeman
sits back in his car is immediately uploaded to the car
and then transmitted to the headquarters where it's put on
the heart on the hard disk on the servers. So it's just a
transparent system, you just have to do your job correctly.
And
this is these are made by a company called Taser
International Inc. and the synchronisation upload system
you speak of is called the evidence which is a different
website evidence.com very interesting to see this is a
public company their stock has really been on the move for the
past two months by some little insider trading and stuff Yeah,
it's and I'll tell you what the what the ticker symbol is what's
the ticker ticker symbol I'm gonna give it to you t ASR so
they make tasers obviously now i i think it's the idea of body
cameras is a very is not well thought through this is it
really is just another be sure it's going to protect the public
and we'll have our eyes on the cops when the cops won't be able
to do stuff but at the same time the abuse is so easy if we have
cameras full time on the streets everywhere I mean, why don't we
just connected up to HQ and turn these cops into bionic Robo cops
and if someone could just sit up there and then in the command
center and just tell them what to do okay, this is not this is
not a I do not think this is a good idea yes we had lots of
problems with with with police officers and corruption no
different from politicians or bankers or anything like that I
don't agree with I don't think
this is well you know, politicians and bankers are
public servants that are supposed to protect and serve
their business man I don't want to hook them up to cameras.
Doesn't make any sense. Your analogy is faulty.
We have no toilets. Okay, when it comes to transparency then if
you want to go find out what politicians are doing, you have
to go down to the basement you can photocopy their their
investment portfolio. I'm just saying that that's not good. I
don't think this is a good idea to have these body cameras. I
just don't I see the abuse factor. So and also you're going
to have no I need some data on it. You say it didn't work in
Seattle, San Francisco
I need to see someone who hasn't tried it but they want to do I
doubt they'll touch it
I don't think it's a I just don't it doesn't feel like a
good idea to me there are there is another the thing that
bothers me the most is the what was it you know the the white
privilege and people are so embarrassed and a
brony before you go there because this is so against the
cameras that bothers me the most what bothers me the most are
these lawsuits against these municipalities over one thing or
another police brutality or somebody gets run over by a
public servant or all these different sorts of things that
cause millions and millions of dollars if you do a little
research on you know police brutality lawsuit settled like
New York City drops a billion dollars over a few years on
these on these situations and who and nobody gets fired no
public official gets fired. And who pays who picks up the tab on
this the public no agenda produced this thing saves me tax
money put cameras on all these cops all right.
I think less cameras in public is better.
That's not gonna happen you're on the wrong side of
wrongs. Thank you, Obama. Put me on the wrong side of history
here though. Here's a an email I received and I seen the sign out
on the streets. I am three fifths a person and this is
here's an email I got let me just read this to you. But it's
very disturbing. Yeah. Whereas the email
calendar now just goes back to the hundreds.
Yes, it does. And this so I'm getting emails this is all about
white privilege and we shouldn't be embarrassed and all this is
all messed up and read this email to you. Whereas here
we should be embarrassed because of white privilege. And you got
an email that told you this.
Here it is. Sorry, somehow Oh, here it is. I lost the guy here
we go. I'm this is from a Richard
Richards a listener of the show. See as a listener of the show,
okay.
This producer. I don't know if he show I don't know if he's
donate. This is regarding the clip from Michael benzyl. Smith,
about the white supremacy and racism being baked right into
the foundation of the country. Actually, I promise you baked,
baked. Yes. Probably should play that clip again. Let me just see
if I have that here somewhere.
You recall the clip that I'm talking about? I do not. I
vaguely vaguely
think we played this on the last show. Let me just grab that. I'm
sorry, I should have prepared this a little bit
better. No, no need to continually apologize.
I just feel bad about it. And of course, I really can't find it.
Okay, we're just gonna have to live with not having it. I
guess this is the way this show would be. I'm going to tell
people something a little secret. Okay. We did the
Christmas show on Tuesday.
I have I have the clip. By the way.
I found Yes, we did the Christmas show on Tuesday. And
now we're kind of discombobulated. In fact, I find
it very uncomfortable to get up to do this show, because we just
did it was what it would be like if we did three Shows a week.
Yeah.
Yes, I feel we'll get into a John, I feel a little
discombobulated myself. But here's the clip I was referring
to this is from MSNBC, from Michael Denzel Smith, about the
foundation. We were supposed to have this conversation and deal
with this on a national level in the Trayvon Martin instance. And
clearly we have not what does that mean for this country that
we really have not dealt with it?
Well, we have this conversation over and over again, the problem
is one people come to the conversation with a certain sort
of amnesia, and forget that we had it before. And then also
that the parameters of the conversation are so so narrowly
defined as to define racism as a personal hatred towards black
people. And we're not then dealing with the systemic, the
systemic ideas that uphold racism and white supremacy in
this country, and then lead to the death of a Trayvon Martin or
Michael Brown or reddish McBride or cuboid, on and on and on and
on. What we haven't dealt what we refuse to deal with, is the
idea of the fact that I found the foundation of this country
is racism and white and white supremacy. And we all have our
institutions uphold that. Okay.
Oh, by the way, yes. Just as does anyone like to maybe note
that George Zimmerman was Hispanic. Don't conveniently
white. Yes. No. The purposes of the debate. Hispanic,
yes, yes. So I received an email from producer Richard, I don't
know if he's actually a donor. I'm as white on rice and milk
during a snowstorm. So perhaps is not my place to say, which
right away just shows you right there. He's got some white guilt
problems.
There's some Exactly. People always put the disclaimer at the
beginning like that. I don't agree with everything you say.
But both you and John acted as if Mr. Smith had no leg to stand
on at his assertion that racism and white supremacy is systemic
and the Foundation of America, I know you're well versed in the
Constitution, which upon review may show that he has at least
three fifths of a leg to stand on. This is the key. Do you know
what this is referring to? John?
Yeah, as referring to the value that black citizenry have three
fifths of the rights of the ruling classes via one let
me let me try. This refers to Article One, Section two of the
Constitution of the United States. And this, I'll read it
to you representatives and direct taxes shall be
apportioned among the several States which may be included
within this union according to their respective numbers, which
shall be determined by adding to the whole number of free
persons, including those bound to service for a term of years,
and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other
persons. And here is how that is interpreted by many people,
including this white guilt person. Now, while those three
persons may have included some black people, I don't know of
the other persons including a single white person, we can
argue original intent until the cows come home. And even
assuming the best case scenario that our founding fathers wished
all people to be equal, but the political and economic realities
of the time made it impossible, which I believe it remains that
they wrote and signed their names to made it to make it not
so. And the way he interprets this three fifths is a black
person, a slave was only worth three fifths of free people. And
I don't read it that for tax purposes, well, tax and voting
purposes, the Yeah, and this was very specific, of course, with
the founding documents. The North really wanted to abolish
slavery, and they wanted to make sure that they didn't have too
many votes in the south. And this is why they came up with
the so called three fifths compromise the way to properly
interpret three fifths He's three fifths of the total number
of other persons, which is very different than saying you're
only three fifths of a person. Do you see this?
As fine? I think you're right. And this guy's just got his he's
just, he's like, you're right, white guilt soaked character.
Now, there's a couple of little little gotchas in this that are
can they were never discussed as not really in the Constitution.
But of course, the southerners would like to have those black
votes as full pronouns, because because they would, because when
the way it worked down in the south, and this, there's a lot
of discussion about this, the black slave holder own those
votes. Yes, yes. And so if he had 100, slaves, he had 101
votes. Yeah. And by the way, women weren't allowed to vote at
all during this period. So who cares? No
one talks about that. It's only with the women that were with
him, when we bought the blacks.
Now, during the debate as to as to secede from the Union, the
because of the number of slave holders, there's only like a
very few of them, I think, think there was like 30,000 in the
entire south. And but they had enough votes, because of their
slaves that they could vote this, the Republic at large did
not want to have the Civil War, they didn't want to fight. It
was not in their best interests. They're the ones who would have
to go do battle. But the slave holders, they're the ones that
had all these votes. So they voted, they voted, voted for the
for the succession, because they had all these these, it was a
minority, essentially, in a minority takeover of the South.
And then this has been largely forgotten by the public,
especially the southern public, who just brainwashed into
believe whatever they believe, and ignore the fact that we
should have never had a civil war if it wasn't for these guys.
And so I assert, in fact, with the founding of these documents,
the founding of the country, it is exactly the opposite. No one
was trying to bake my head like saying bake no was trying to put
systemic white supremacy and slavery and racism, I'm sorry,
yes, they weren't trying to we're trying to to avoid, avoid
that to get rid of it is exactly the opposite. So when I see
people walking while and when, certainly blacks with, I'm only
three fifths of person, I find that to be a travesty of, of the
truth,
the travesty of our educational system. There's that let's get
to the real root of this. Let's start we're going to talk about
white liberal guilt unless you have another point to make
specific. I want to talk about St. Louis a little bit. I about
moderate St. Louis, there's a series on PBS, which is actually
I've been watching occasionally. And I'm baffled by what his
messages are. And it's called America reframed. And they did a
whole show on the projects, the i Gore, whatever they were
called projects that were in St. Louis, that were built in 1949,
when the Democrats decided to pass some fair housing
legislation in an effort to get rid of America's slums and put
projects up. And these are the Democrats behind all this. And
they there was a lot of debate about whether this is a good
idea who was
in who was running
the president, period. And so they passed a bunch of this
money, money involved, so you could build projects. And so
they built this beautiful set of projects in St. Louis, in the
50s. And it was architected by a Japanese, they show the
interiors and was just fantastic. I mean, in terms of
it's like what you get when they moved these people from the
slums that they they tore down, and usually single family
dwellings that were hellholes, and without plumbing or anything
like that, and then moved into these places. And eventually the
thing caved in on itself because the blacks were expected to pay
rent, which they couldn't afford, it was all mostly blacks
or whites to, and eventually they segregated, but at first it
was, you know, probably two thirds blacks and a third
whites. And then they they had low rents in and out of the
rents were supposed to maintain the buildings, and there wasn't
enough money to do so. And the whole thing fell apart and just
destroyed itself. But but there was other elements of play. But
first, I want you to play this clip, St. Louis housing opening
and listen for the magic number. In the middle 50s St. Louis
Park,
it is solved. It's low cost housing, but instead a monster
was created. The things change quickly. As problems mounting,
the decline was steep. Those who couldn't move out the
12,000 people were originally jammed into these 33 buildings.
Of course
this just makes so much sense doesn't
want to give Eric this show credit for spot now when a good
one. Now you play the St. Louis housing prison analogy and this
was the way the welfare state was established by the
Democrats. For the blacks. Were
giving you money We want to be able to control you. We're
giving you money. So we have the right to stipulation There you
go as to how you use it, and what do you use it for? There
was so many restrictions. We couldn't have a telephone, we
couldn't have a television. And we were really left at the mercy
of the system.
And the project, it seems to be strategically planned to create
an environment that people felt isolated that people felt
restricted, that people felt, you know, inhuman, almost your
bad, we have to restrain you, we have to curtail what you're
doing. It was void of humanity. It was void of carry. It's a
more like a prison environment that you have to escape from.
Now, that was one of the elements at first, everyone was
really pleased to be in these places, and then it started to
do kind of eat at them. But the clip that I want to play that is
that is the last clip that I think is the most interesting
because I was this was completely unknown to me that
this sort of thing was going on, because we're always, especially
the Liberals are always bitching and moaning about the black
father. You know, he's gone. He's absent, right? He's not
there. And it's like, there's issues that hadn't been resolved
at all. This is like, this is
what year,
this is in the 50s. Look how much has changed. Now, they, the
Republicans are blamed for all this somehow, I don't know how
they managed to do that. But if you really start looking at this
as the Democrats fault for everything, because the way I'm
seeing it, now, I want to play this as the St. Louis housing
finale, the information that is revealed in this clip, now that
this place, by the way, was leveled. This is the famous
buildings that were blown up, you know, then it would everyone
Oh, look, that's what public housing is all about. It gets
blown up as no good was blown up. I remember that shoe 1869.
All these buildings, boom, boom, they're all just dropped.
They're all of them leveled all 33 of them. And they were all
level in 69. And this little clip here, which was unknown to
me all these years, and I thought was like most the most
revealing is, again, the welfare state at work. This is the St.
Louis housing finale,
welfare department came to our home. They talk with my mother
about moving into the housing project. But the stipulation was
that my father could not be with us. They would put us into the
housing project only if he left the state. My mother and father
discussed it, and they decided that it was best for the 12
children, for the father to leave the home. And that's how
we get into the projects.
The welfare department had a rule that no able bodied man
could be in the house if a woman received aid for dependent
children. If a man lost his job, he's looking for work, he still
had to leave the home. And there was even a night staff of men
who worked for the welfare department whose job was to go
to the homes of the welfare recipients. They searched to
find if there was a man in the home sometimes men came back at
night to be with their families. Some were found in closet
hiding.
I remember vividly my mother telling us if White people come
to the house and ask you guys questions, tell them that your
father is not here. Tell them that your father has never been
here you have not seen your father. I trusted him I knew
that there was a reason that we had to do this charade and I
participant industry rate I sat there and look for throughput
and I told him with the with the with pure earnestness that no I
have not seen my father and no, my daddy does not live here. And
but I knew that I was lying. And that made me wonder Who are
these people and how they had the power to make my mother lie.
Wow, this brings me to this flows right into another clip.
Because what you're hearing there is exactly the same that
children were told in I know children who were told this In
the Netherlands, if the Germans come to the door, we don't have
a radio. And there's no Jews in the basement. Imagine you're
five years old. And you have to say the same thing about, oh, my
dad's not here. Here is Ben Carson. The doctor who kind of
got in President Obama's face during one of those prayer
breakfast, if you recall, he's a black doctor, a Republican,
Republican. Yeah. And the something homeless. I have a
weird buzz on my mic. What is going on homeless like, it's
been one of those days what is happening? Make it go away.
Right, guess not.
He is probably a contender, possibly for Republican
presidential candidate. Here is the controversial statement he
made that he will talk to broth about on CNN
very much like Nazi Germany. And I know you're not supposed to
say Nazi Germany, but I care about political correctness. You
know, you had a government, using its tools to intimidate
the population. We now live in a society where people are afraid
to say what they actually believe. And it's because of the
PC police is because of the politicians because of news.
It's all of these things are combining to stifle people's
conversation.
I would say he's correct.
No, absolutely.
Then broth of course, has if you want to hear a little bit of
both, yeah,
I'm gonna hear both because you'll be all in on the other
side. Comparison of the United States of America, the greatest
country in the world,
the greatest America, country ever to Nazi Germany, I
said, What is he talking about?
Well see, what you were doing is allowing words to affect you
more than listening to what was actually being please
the president. I greatly admire you and what you've done over
the years, but it makes a comparison of the United States
and Nazi Germany that just struck an awful tone.
It goes on like this a plane until you
bag clip you can play I think I got one over.
Nazis, you Germany, experienced something horrible. The people
in Nazi Germany largely did not believe in what Hitler was
doing. But Did they say anything? Of course not. They
kept their mouth shut. And there are some very important lessons
to be learned there. The fact that our government is is using
instruments of government like the IRS
to and that, of course, is the Republican their mantra, the
talking point, which by the way, turns out to be pretty true.
Yeah. Well, done by everybody. Its
opponents, certainly by the Nazis. Nice, nice, nice. This is
not the kind of thing that as far as I'm concerned, is a
Democrat or Republican issue. This is an American issue
that goes on if I don't think you want to hear all of it. No,
no, it's fine. Here. Here is something of course, a lot of
groups came out and took advantage of this situation. In
in Ferguson, a lot of people talking about the new Black
Panther Party, which I don't know too much about. They are
not some kind of derivative or new version of the Black
Panthers. It's really something different.
Now. They're just that's essentially what they call
themselves. Right? The New Black Panther Party, like, right,
right. Doesn't mean anything.
But since the beginning, and if you look at the Facebook while
you don't if you look at the Facebook group, Muslims for
Ferguson, the Council of American Islamic Relations, has
had
a corrupt operation, yes. But they've had
a lot of the John provocateurs I assert, we're from care, the
Council of American Islamic Relations or some some
subsidiary or whatever. And were part of the looting and part of
the the burning in the rioting. And if you look at this group,
the idea is to do exactly what Ben Carson is, is, it's kind of
protest protesting against here is to usher in the same
political correctness that Europe has. In Europe, if you
say anything about Islam or Muslims, you are immediately
deemed an Islamophobe you have Islamophobia. And the whole idea
here is to use your your white privilege, your white guilt, to
not really not say anything any more about anybody, not about
blacks, not about browns and about yellows, not about
Muslims. And they will be taking advantage of this and if you
read this group, here, this is why for Agustin is our issue
this is from the Islamic monthly data Muslim America. Ferguson is
your issue. Ferguson is our issue for reigns for a range of
reasons that go well beyond passive commitment to civil
rights or symbolic solidarity. Muslim Americans are bound to
Ferguson and the shrill demand calling for an end to state
sponsored and structural violence against black America
that reverberates from its embattled streets. Do you
understand where it's going? Yeah, it is. It is Uber, Uber,
political correctness. And everybody's falling for it. And
it's one of our producers or listeners must several John
believes me this. It just, it's really deeply embedded. And this
is where Facebook becomes interesting. You just scroll
through is everybody Oh, I'm so ashamed. Oh, this is horrible.
And they're really missing. And of course, the the the
administration is anybody
outside of the local community is shamed. Because they're their
minds on local issues. That should have stayed a local.
I understand but you're not debating me on that. We know
that. But this is because it's being propagandized, and people
are being told that this is horrible and, and you need to
believe that you have all these rights and we need every a
kumbaya. And please vote Democrat. I think that's
ultimately, at the end of the day. That
is what this is all about. Although although
I will say I will say there's always a Hollywood angle. He's
got supporters. Detroit, New York, Los Angeles, inciting
large scale arrests and sympathy marches. I'm very aware of that.
Hoover. What I do know is non violent. What I need to know
right now, what's Martin Luther King about to do next?
This is the movie Selma, which is coming out in January 2015.
One dream can change the world produced by, amongst others.
Oprah Winfrey storyline, Martin Luther King Lyndon Baines
Johnson civil rights marches that changed America. I think
it's right on schedule.
Yeah. Yeah. It's,
it's a way it's a long way to go.
You want to change the movie to hate ya. Thanks. Thanks, Oprah.
I can I can actually see the meeting was, hey, we wanted to
kill some people that promote this movie, or whatever.
It's for the greater good.
It's really, really, really very disturbing. I want to play a bit
of this. An alternative voice which I don't think got any real
airplay and every Jabra. What is the political manager for
Russell Simmons doing on TV the whole day? Have you seen this
guy? That some white guy and he's Russell Simmons,
you know, Russell Simmons? Is
it a white guy? No. Russell Simmons is not on. It's his
politicals his manager. And this white guy is speaking on behalf
of Russell Simmons is what's so great. He's on evenings mornings
on everywhere.
That's ludicrous. This is crazy.
I can't take the guys seriously. This is Sheriff David Clark from
Milwaukee. See, is
this going to play let's see want to talk about and that was
good. This
was at the National Press Club in DC. I know coverage as far as
I could tell, because
we'll talk about this. This is important. Someone mentioned
Eric Holder. And I'll be
I might point out he's black.
I'm known for not sugarcoating things. This pisses me off
smattering of applause.
I set up and once as the events unfold in Ferguson, Missouri,
unfortunate situation, obviously, anytime a law
enforcement officer uses force and takes a life and deserves a
thorough transparent vetting, investigation, we all kind of
agree with that. But then some groups started to converge on
the small town of Ferguson, Missouri. like vultures on a
roadside carcass, who was like the new Black Panther Party.
People like Al Sharpton hoops to come and exploit that situation.
And instead of coming in to help and try to restore calm, pour
gas on that fire, was some of their inflammatory and
irresponsible rhetoric. And I set up during listen to Governor
Nixon and I stood up there listen to Claire McCaskill, the
standard. And then I sat there and listened to Eric Holder
throw law enforcement officers under the bus for political
expediency. These are the same individuals at election time.
Come around wanting support from law enforcement organizations,
right? They all stand up there. I'm supported by the this
fraternal organization and this Police Association and I'm
received the Excellent reading by that. They do that when they
need us. But now there was an opportunity to improve their
bona fides with some of these interest groups like The New
Black Panther Party to flaunt their racial sensitivity. And
through law enforcement under the bus. I expect that from
Governor Nixon.
Did you want to hear more?
Yeah, no, I meant listening.
I don't want to wait. You get a board? That's
all just a couple. I'm bored. I'm gonna tell you that. I
think that's why I wanted to make sure yeah, I
want to I don't have to check in. Yeah, I did. Wait for me to
jump in saying that this is boring.
Claire McCaskill.
Did you want to say something before I continue?
No, I went, I missed that. You know, the, yeah. The governor's
the governor is talking about, I believe, is a Democrat. And this
is the only confusing thing about this whole deal. And
McCaskill is a Democrat. And these digits, the only thing
that baffles me is the Democrat element on the other side of
this, of this debate, doesn't make sense if it's all about
just making everyone into a Democrat. But anyway, play on
and maybe think about why I'm so confused. He
is indeed a Democrat. I'm just checking. Yes,
those are nothing but two bit politicians. They do that sort
of that's what politicians do, you know that. But I did not
expect that from here and hold, calls himself a law enforcement
officer, instead of talking responsibly, instead of
measuring his words, because that's what's needed at a time
like that. You gotta measure what you see, because tensions
are high in the wrong things that can make a bad situation
worse. And he said up there and talked about how he has seen law
enforcement officers profile. He's been the victim of racial
profiling himself. And this is an interesting story named two
situations, one in a traffic stop and in New Jersey, and he
said, I remember feeling the indignation as they searched my
vehicle. And then he talked about a situation when he was in
Georgetown, not too far from here. And now he had a friend
was stopped on the way to the movie theater, and they felt
that they were racially profiled. And he said, I was a
federal prosecutor when those things happen. I said, Wait a
minute. Mr. Attorney General, if you felt those officers violated
your Fourth Amendment rights and your federal prosecutor and you
didn't say anything. At the time, on behalf of everybody in
the United States, you could have done something if you felt
that you could have made a complaint. Because all of us
kind of realize, in law enforcement, right, we testify,
what do they say in court? Do they write it down? Do you
didn't report it? It didn't happen. And that's what I was
thinking of, really if Mr. Attorney General, you didn't
report it, then you didn't write it down. But you're telling us
some 1015 years later? For self serving purposes,
that would seem correct to me. That's exactly what's going on.
I think that's a nice said nice catch there by the sheriff.
Holders. Douchebag.
Oh, in fact, we'll just give them a little shaka laka I'm
sorry.
gunrunner. That guy in Chicago, by the way, do you have to do
follow up once in a while the
the Mexican drug gets the drug and the drug guy. Yeah. We
should follow that up. To follow up on that. Anyway, in the show
notes. There'll be links to if you should definitely listen and
watch the if you haven't seen the Charles Barkley, what he has
to say and he calls Obama and Holder, literally race baiters.
And it's very strong. It's really, really strong the stuff
that he's saying, and I'm happy about that. But I think the
public at large are just all in is horrible.
And Barclays just Barkley. He's just Barkley. Exactly, exactly.
So it's all in Yeah.
So those are the things to look out for. But I find it sad
really find it sad, just sad. And the saddest thing is that
all these people like you can't have a conversation with anybody
anymore. Say, Well, this is you know, oh, it's horrible white
privilege. Guilt, like the guy from your common core row had to
rewrite to educational material because I had white privilege.
And therefore we have to lower the standards for everybody's
border, border line clip of the month. It's just it's just so
let's make everything stupid because I had white privilege.
Logic is beyond me.
It's so sad. But I love now how they're bringing the Cosby thing
in now. And this is this is gonna be very interesting. And
then we have what is that? How does that fit into it? I think
everyone should blow our heads up. Your brain just implodes.
Well no I think it's because Cosby is essentially portrayed
as a white privileged black.
Good point. It just accentuates it because he was you
might as well get him out of the way not that he may have done
we've talked about that Mimi and I talked about this she was her
thesis about you know, if you're a comic you get you can get laid
no matter what you get laid no matter what. So what's the deal
and so it came to mind I don't want to sounds a little gruesome
or a little. I'm gonna go a little bit. Just some people.
Some listeners, this may be a little off color, but play the
first let's play this clip Cosby's latest story.
comedian Bill Cosby is facing his first lawsuit resulting from
the new wave of allegations over the drugging rate.
Three lawsuits that he settled out of court and
sexual assault of more than 20 women. Plaintiff Judy half is
suing Cosby for allegedly molesting her 40 years ago when
she was 15 years old. The suit claims Cosby forced her to
perform a sex act on him without her consent. Her complaint says
the incident has caused quote psychological damage and mental
anguish in the decades since it comes one day after Cosby
resigned from the Board of Trustees of Temple University
amidst mounting claims from women who have come forward to
accuse him of being a sexual predator.
And I'm gonna I'm gonna have to before we go off caller, so to
speak, it feels to me like this has been planted at this very
moment to get this going. For the reasons you just said,
Because Cosby is seen as a white privilege guy. All right over to
you.
Yeah, I'm a big sometimes we may be go overboard with our
analysis, but I think that's potentially the case. Well,
let's back up and the latest woman and down over is this one,
but the one she was on with on MSNBC or one of these shows that
she was yakking away about the same thing that forced oral sex
I guess. But then they asked her the question, were you drugged
and ever drugged in there? And yes, apparently the main thing
that was going on these allotted is oral sex and all this other
stuff, which seems to be ancillary and they just throw it
in there. I'm not even sure anyway, that is actually true.
But the drugging seems to be a consistent yes thing consistent
pattern. Yes. I always dry woke up in the morning I woke up he
was you know, taking my panties down, putting him up. We don't
know whatever the case was. You don't wake up. You these women.
Were bitching it the next day, but there are there are a group
of people in the world that are necrophilia acts. And there was
a book
of all of all the things all right, yeah, I'm with you. Yes.
Jimmy Savile? Hit me with it.
Now, there's a lot of people out there that are neck Well, Jimmy
Savile? I don't know if he's necrophilia. But there's a lot.
In fact, there was
this Yes, that was one of the main topics and he but he was he
went to the talks
about this, it's you can look it up and then deal with it in your
own time. But whatever the case is, nobody likes to talk about
this. There was a very famous guy who was indicted for
killing, almost killing his wife with an overdose of something or
other insulin, I believe. And there's a biography written this
way where this comes from where I got this concept, and Mimi
agrees with me. And the concept comes from this. There's a book
that was in New York City, being about to be published and went
through the lawyers and in the book, they accused the guy who
was the who kept knocking his wife for a loop. And then I
guess having sex with her of being a necrophiliac because he
was part of a sex club. And there were plenty of sex clubs,
especially in the 70s and 80s. In New York, before aids came
along, which ended all the sex clubs, there was a number of
open sex clubs and there was a necrophiliac club, or maybe more
than one. You've talked about this. Yeah. What was it guy who
ran it was Tennessee Williams, the playwright was all in his
book, I'm
writing this down, hold on, what is the name of this?
Why did I find out about this? Because I had one of the editors
of one of the big publishing companies, as a friend of mine,
to this day, tell me that this was the big buzz in the
publishing community in New York, because every publisher
knew about this information. But it was kind of like the crazy
information you get when you're in the news business or if you
get a publishing business that just doesn't make it into the
book because the lawyer saying no. Well, there's when I thought
about the necrophilia Club, which was apparently meet met
every Wednesday, once a month or something like that. And at a
mortuary and then they would have the bodies that they
thought were appealing lined up, and then these guys would go at
it. And it's a disgusting, disgusting thing to discuss to
talk about. But it seems to me that Cosby may be and if
anybody's not going to talk about something because there's
something worse to talk about. If you're going to be like just
a rapist. That's one thing. But if you're going to be a
necrophiliac the potential for really the humiliation is
extreme. And I don't know I'm just saying that you've had to
into and this is what it sounds like to me. Now I want to have
sex with somebody that is that it has no resistance whatsoever.
And I think by the way, these people like to roofie women are
necrophiliac themselves. Fairly sick. Yeah. But Kevin
experiences that.
We should try it and find out. I'm not going to. Okay, I
remember you've you've told this story on the show before many,
many years ago about the bottle club about the book in the club.
What What is the name of this book? Do you remember?
It was one of the was one of the biographies of Closs von Bulow.
That's Yes. Oh, man, it's coming back to me.
And I think they off handedly accused him of being a member.
Well, there's no proof of any of this. And everybody's dead.
Except von Bulow is an old man living somewhere I don't know
where I ran into him once at a
at a club in New York by any chance
was at some dinner at some restaurant and somebody said,
and I wasn't really too familiar with whoever I can't remember
who I was with this class von Bulow sitting right behind you.
And I act like you're alive,
and I turned right around.
You did one of those. Just to come back to Jimmy Savile was
has been accused by Paul gamba cine who's a fellow BBC radio
presenter of being a necrophiliac Yeah, okay, and he
was in all these hospitals all the time with the kids up with
the kid and then you go over to the morgue and
that's the most disgusting imaginable person. Yeah,
children. It's not even it's like borderline crazy to think
but it does. Yeah, I know. But anyway, that's that's the that
isn't something to discuss. And we this is the kind of dinner
discussion we have
a house on the I love that you say Mimi agrees, which means?
Because I need some backup. You're not gonna say anything.
We need a jingle for this. necro philia just a thought.
I think there's probably more of a motto than we'd like to
imagine
shaka laka boom, Shakalaka boom. Shakalaka Boom shaka laka. And
with that,
I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning

You boys have overloaded me I have gained and lost so many
friends. Since I started listening to you. You have
allowed me to converse with royalty and generals. You have
given an introverted personality, a voice at the
table, and more importantly, a voice against my well educated
sister.
Now that's a good tool.
It's a very good tool. He had an interest in introverted
personality because he wasn't. He wasn't they didn't have it.
No agenda has given it to him. John, you are so anti British.

Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
Shut us
Did you see the State of the Union?
No, I did not. Ah, I've been in the State of the Union.
President of Vladimir Putin held his State of the Union this
morning. Okay. And I have a little bit of audio if you want
to hear it. I can read a bit to this. It's still being
transcribed. It kind of happened right at the very end there. But
not enough time to to really get everything into the show. Just
play this typical Vladimir style. Second, where are we? Oh,
did my one of those days
damning us again,
here is here we go. This is a it's about an hour and a half.
So there's a lot to it. And this, of course, is a translated
version.
The Russian army is state of the art. It is your void combat, it
has military capacity. It is polite as people say, and we
will have enough courage and will not go but if need be, we
will continue to stand up for Global Diversity, we will
continue to bring truth to people across the border so that
everybody would see a true image of Russia and distorted. We will
actively promote humanitarian scientific cultural contact or
contacts in relations. Even in a situation when certain
governments are trying to erect something like a new curtain
around Russia. A
lot of the state of the art is a terrible translator. Yes. State
of the arms in many state of the art polite. Whatever, a couple
of things
that I'll just read, before you go there. I just wanted to read
a couple things from this from his take a long
read from that because there's another curious thing taking
place at the same time, exact same time as the speech.
A referendum. He talks to his comrades a referendum was held
in Crimea in March, in which his residents clearly expressed the
desire to join Russia after that the Crimean parliament, it
should be stressed it was a legitimate parliament that was
elected back in 2010. adopted a resolution of sovereignty. So
he's setting the record straight a little bit. Here is the party.
Yeah, that makes a huge difference. No,
it makes no difference. But he course at least you're hearing
it on this show. No, you're not going to hear anything about
this from anybody else happen. He's talking about Ukraine. How
did it all begin? I will have to remind you what happened back
then it's hard to believe that it all started with a technical
decision by President Yanukovych to postpone the signing of the
associate association agreement between Ukraine and the European
Union. Make no mistake, he did not refuse to sign the document,
but only postponed it in order to make some money. Testaments.
As you recall, this move was fully in line with the
constitutional authority vested upon absolutely the gentleman
and internationally recognized head of state. Against his
background, there was no way we could support this armed coup,
the violence, and the killings just take the bloody events in
Odessa, where people were burned alive. And no one talks about
that anymore. How did this dialogue? How did the dialogue
and this issue between Russian and American and European
partners start? I mentioned our American friends for reasons
since they're always influencing Russia's relations with its
neighbors, either openly or behind the scenes. Sometimes it
is even unclear whom to talk to the governments of certain
countries or directly with their American patriots or patrons and
sponsors. He's kind of calling us out a little bit there.
No kidding. Just a little thing, you only hear on no agenda.
So what came out of I'm skipping it. What came out of all the
agreement between Ukraine and the European Union has been
signed and ratified. But the implementation of the provisions
regarding trade and economy has been postponed until the end of
the year. Doesn't this mean that we were the ones who were
actually right all along? What has this actually done for
Ukraine. In fact, the economy, finance and the social sector
were destroyed and the country ruined. And then it goes into
some of the some of the money that they've been, they've
supported Ukraine with and Gazprom, as I read this first
second. Last year, let me reiterate that Russian banks
already invested some $25 billion in Ukraine. Last year,
Russia's finance ministry extend a loan worth another $3 billion,
Gazprom provided another five and a half billion to Ukraine,
and even offered a discount a one a discount that no one
promised requiring the country to pay only four and a half
billion, add it all up and you get as much as 32 and a half
billion dollars that were provided recently only by
Russia. For some European countries, national pride is
long forgotten concept and sovereignty is too much of a
luxury, true sovereignty for Russia is absolutely necessary
for survival as your revisionist Putin revisionist Russia. And
now, in the backdrop of this, something very interesting
happened. There was an announcement, just bring this up
in my show notes, a political announcement in Ukraine, which I
thought was just hilarious. And the new finance minister here
name is Natalie Jesco, who is a United States citizen was
granted a Ukrainian citizenship overnight to be to become the
finance minister.
Well, there's more to it than that. If you played the clip.
Oh, you have a clip. Well, hold on where's the where's a which
100 Ukraine Ukrainian citizenship good.
Ukraine's President promising Ukrainian citizenship to foreign
nationals.
The President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko made an astonishing
announcement on Twitter on Tuesday, December 2, the head of
State said he will be granting Ukrainian citizenship to any
foreign national coming to Ukraine to fight Russian
repression.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, and then of course, you could play part two, there's a
little I think that really kind of the key to understanding
this.
And he's already starting to put his words into action. In a
second tweet Petro Poroshenko named three foreign nationals
who were given Ukrainian citizenship on Tuesday for
services rendered to the country, American woman and
Natalija Resco Lithuanian man, avarice. ablum, a vicious and
Alexandra Kiva, actually from Georgia weren't just given
Ukrainian citizenship. They will also appointed to top government
positions. Yeah,
exactly. My interpretation of this is that the Ukrainian
system is still so corrupt. Yeah, that they can't trust
Ukrainians for any of these jobs. And they're just letting
these these people come in from the outside and of course they
bring a Georgian in, which I think is kind of telling because
that's what you do. I don't know who this guy is. I like to look
him up. I just got this clip. So I didn't get to do that. But
what I what he had to do with the Russian Georgian kind of
conflagration that took place on blood Gration,
I can tell you about Natalie Jesco. Yeah, managing a founding
partner horizon capital. She is now the finance minister with a
an overnight citizenship. They have 280 McDonald. I'm not a big
small fund, actually. But she is a member of the US Ukraine
Business Council us UBC. Who do you think funds that outfit?
State Department? USA ID close enough? So this is crazy. It's
so obvious what's going on? Hey, we're gonna put our guys in.
Yeah, please. I'm just gonna say the State Department we know,
then that all that money that Russia is loaning them. It's
going into our wallet. Yeah. Hey, Hey, John. Good work,
Putin. Thanks,
John. Are we good or what are the best
because it always ends up being rubble at the end. Of course, it
doesn't, you know, it's, you know, it's way this guy was
going to be that way anyway, I think is gonna be the way to
think about it is gonna end up that way anyway,
you know, of course, the big news coming out of Ukraine and
Russia is the surprising announcement to stop the South
Stream pipeline. And the switcheroo now moving it into
Turkey. This is a very, very interesting development. And of
course, we talk a lot about or certainly have talked a lot
about pipelines, it's one of my hobbies. And you really have to
you want to look at a map I have a map actually for you. If you
wanna map nap. I got a good map go to itm.im/what Did I put this
under? You'd think it would be map Hold on.
Yeah, I got all the ones you had. So Foley kids, Cadence
director, Ebola kid?
It's not that for no, no, it's a new one. A new one have a new
helmet assume is just like, you know, I'm I'm draw and I'm some
I'm not doing well, today.
I told you this because of the Tuesday show. It sucks. That's
what is this, every show would be like this.
If we if we did three Shows a week. I mean,
yeah, the three Shows a week thing was not a good idea for
it. I get
to see ITM dot IMC. My browser remembers what it was. Oh, there
you go. There you go. I really don't remember what it was.
Okay, tell us then, oh, that's a
good man, you have to see the pipeline. So it's going from
Russia through the Caspian Sea, to the Black Sea, to the south
of Crimea. And instead of hitting land in Bulgaria, now
you recall, we were talking Bulgaria as it all kinds of crap
going on. They're the ones that were told by the EU, you better
not have that South Stream coming off onshore, through your
through your country. And now they have we were looking at
some possible regime change, they had to close the banks for
three days, all kinds of little things are taking place. So that
has now been killed. And all they're doing now is going
straight down with the pipe, there'll be the same pipeline,
instead of turning westward into Bulgaria, it's going to go
straight down into Turkey, and will then enter the European
Union via Greece. Jazz, you know, the the Russians bought up
a lot of those assets. When when Greece was pretty much
broke when they were up for sale. Right.
So this is still going to help the gas get into Europe. But I
think really,
the EU is this map, find it. Okay, yeah.
I'm gonna maybe I can just give you a link.
So there's a long clip I can play in the meantime.
I don't know how I want. Let me just see if it's further down
here. I can give you a link to it. Hold on. I think maybe not.
Sorry, John, I just don't have it. I just I put it in there. I
made a short URL shortener and I just can't find it. But you can
look go look for South Stream
pipeline map about South Stream pipeline redirected.
I don't know about that. Let me let me continue the original
pipelines. I was going to the Black Sea come ashore in
Bulgaria that got started by the EU. So now they're looking at
the Turkish gas hub. And this is what is happening now. What so
Erdogan had a meeting with Putin, and there, and he's
talking a lot of crap, really. So the bow toss, which is the
Turkish owned, crude oil and gas transit and trading company, had
cut a deal with Gazprom. And this is kind of funny the way
they did that said, Okay, we'll have a new pipeline going into
the egg in Turkey gas, the Turkish gas hub, and it will
carry 63 billion cubic meters of gas annually,
which is gonna now be called the Blue stream, North Stream, South
Stream, blue stream, okay.
And that, of course, is the exact same amount of capacity
that the South Stream was supposed to supposed to carry.
Oh, wait, I take it back to another pipeline south of the
new South Stream.
Now, here's what's competing. The the US is competing. We have
we have a couple of ways to work this one is we have the
Leviathan field in in the Mediterranean, which of course
Noble Energy is developing on behalf of Israel, and they're
building the pipeline up to either Cyprus and or into Italy.
So we'll win on that. Then there's the trans Adriatic
Adriatic pipeline. This is Obert, Azerbaijan, to Italy via
the Balkans. So it's really going to be a race. But the
funny thing is, Europe gets completely screwed in this deal.
Completely. How's that?
How's that? Because now you have another you have another player
in the middle, you've got turkey in the middle and turn him into
well, here's some of the things Yeah,
it's pretty gonna be pretty hard to bomb the pipeline wallets in
Turkey. Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna give you some of the, the words that Erawan has been
using. He's talking big game there. See how we have it here?
He Okay, so Erawan made a joke with what it was doing this
announcement with Putin. He said, hey, you know, what we'd
like to do is we'd like to join the Shanghai cooperative
organization. If you'd let it if you'd let us in there. We don't
need the West. And it was considered kind of offhandedly,
like a joke. He said, The Shanghai five is better and more
powerful than the West and we have common values with them.
And this, of course, is not much of a joke, it seems to
me. Well, it's reported as a joke. Wink wink,
I started seeing some interesting situations. I think
some regime change is in order. And yet we tried this one to one
but that event departed to down a park and the next thing you
know, the whole countries and on fire. So we tried it and then
everyone got out rousted all the troublemakers. And in the
process, of course, he's also took sided with ISIS. ISIL it's
the West also. He's again, he's I think he's one of the things
like a Hugo Chavez. He's seen the light of the danger of
working with us. And I think he's going to Yeah, saddle up
with the Russians. That's interesting. This will change
geopolitics every time to an extreme
and by coincidence, last night, the US Embassy in Ankara said it
had received reports that extremist groups may be planning
an attack against a Syrian opposition group in South
Eastern Turker. City of Gaza. Gaziantep. So yeah, that's what
you get. You don't play ball with us. You get like terrorist
attacks, being shitty things start to happen to you, but
claims happen. But keep your eye on the Shanghai Cooperation
Organization. We've talked about these guys before. They are more
than just a drinking club. If Putin said we will ask Turkey
what they can do they have great experience in EU talks. You see,
this is now Turkey will never be in the EU. But to have a NATO
member, jump into bed with Putin. While all this is taking
place. This is this has got to be a nightmare. It's a pretty
it's got to be a problem. It's got to be a prompt here in
January Erawan said, if we get into the SCO, the Shanghai
Cooperation Organization, look this up we've we've talked about
before, if we get into the SCO, we will say goodbye to the
European Union. And that's where he said the Shanghai five is
better, much more powerful Pakistan wants in India wants in
as well. If the SCO wants us, all of us will become members of
this organization. And we have common values with them. This is
not chickenshit language and values.
He's talking about China. sell stuff to China, that will be the
common value. Yeah.
Oh, here it is. Wait a minute. This is this is. Now it's
embarrassing, because this actually is something we could
have caught. Last year.
We've been talking about this whole thing continuously that
Turkey is going to be the hub Yes, yo. Yes, we've talked about
the SEO. Specifically. Turkey
renews please as you renews the plea in December to join the
last December December 13. During a trip to Russia, Turkish
Prime Minister once again said that anchor would abandon its
quest to join the EU this is true. Okay, I think we saw this
as just putting pressure on the EU to get in. He's never He
didn't really get into either. He was crazy. NATO is nuts to
have these guys, but they need them for flyover purposes. I
mean, the big deal on Turkey is fly over you got to fly over
Turkey to just about do anything in the Middle East.
We've talked about let's see, but we could have talked
about it but it's beside the point we're talking about it
now.
So if they're going to be the gas hub and their main mission
is to sell to the Chinese but they will now be that the
chokehold for the gas to to the EU. And come on
that and then of course can be sure that yeah,
regime change as you pointed out is going to buy
gas from us but you also must buy a rug
write that down. Good one so I think this is not instant that
joke. Yeah, I think this is not insignificant. In in the grand
scheme of things, it's it's actually mind boggling.
What's Putin supposed to do?
I think he's made a brilliant decision here. Brilliant. And
now and now of course we don't need any of these. We were
looking at Hungary because Hungary was also a possible
Yeah, it gets off the hook it was a possible connection. So
screws amount of whatever money they can make for transport fees
and right of ways. Oh, yeah.
I find it to
find a kind of nice, I find it interesting to watch. We knew
that something was going to happen with Turkey. And the only
thing Argh, our guy Gulin failed of trying to overturn
everything.
Well, he's not dead. That's it. That's that's the only thing
that's left is.
So there's there's always another possibility.
And there's also as what else do we have? Now? I think that's
about that's about it. Israel see stars aligned for new gas
pipelines to Europe. That of course, is the Leviathan,
everyone's going to be building lickety split to get stuff up as
quick as possible, but really, nothing can compete. And of
course, the in the catbird seat is Angular, who has the North
Stream pipeline, which I believe Dominic says like 40 billion
cubic meters annually. And she could take a look and she can
put that onto our own network of grid and start reverse flowing
that into Europe. But look at the Nord Stream capacity in the
North Stream is 5555 It's almost the same as the South Stream
South is yeah, not quite looking 6363 It's a lot it's going to be
a cold winter people
that will just keep our eye on the I love this pipeline stuff.
I love it.
will display explain a lot.
The only bad news and all of this is the initial report from
the BBC. Get the report up here. This is because of all this
pressure on Russia and the sanctions. prostitutes in the
Russian Arctic port have more months have unexpectedly hiked
prices for their services by up to 40% Blaming the tumbling
ruble exchange rate for their decision.
Go Yeah, well the ruble goes down the prices of hookers goes
up what do they get?
They get better looking that's that's the main question
Yeah, there's a lot of people readjusting their prices because
they're falling ruble So what was I talking about this on DHL
unplugged This has got to be an investment opportunity at some
point in hookers. Yeah, well, hookers that's a tough
investment because you have to be a pimp to make it work. The
Russian economy right because it's being this is artificial.
This is an artificial depression of the ruble. This is not
natural and it can't last us meddling. No, it can't last. No,
it's just us meddling and managing to do as almost as
though we're investing who knows? Whatever the case it's
fishy.
By the way, Turkey's inflation rate is now over 9%. You
remember the they had to do all this crazy stuff to save the
lira, like a year ago. No. Turkeys I think the lira I think
they use
Yeah, I know that. But I don't know what you're telling me that
they were doing crazy things to remember it.
Okay. Okay, Turkey. If there the lira was so was being so
depressed by external forces that they had to raise the
interest rate through an astronomical level and
we see external forces. Hmm. Wonder who that could be? Yeah,
let me see if I can find the fun story. Interest rate makes
massive. This was January 28 2014. Turkish central bank
makes massive rate hikes to stem lira fall. Overnight lending
rate went from 7.75% to 12%. That was when we were trying to
press I guess we were trying to pressure them financially. And
it's no secret I think that you know the Erawan loves the idea
of the new Ottoman Empire. And this and being the gas hub is is
really a good part of the strategy.
Well, globalization We'll follow
on be Saturday. Sure you be very sad if
they if they verbalize it and I on that that'll be fun to watch.
Yeah. So I guess the year a little thing, I'm putting an X
next to your
red book.
prognostication about droopy dog getting in as Secretary of
Defense. Oh, yes. officials
have confirmed President Obama will nominate Ashton Carter as
the next Secretary of Defense replacing Chuck Hagel. And
announcement will come after the official vetting process is
complete, but Carter said to be the only candidate left after
two hours others withdrew from consideration. Okay.
Just because that is the rumored selection, which may be very
true. Just seen this guy this this? Well, yeah, he's the he's
the deputy. Yeah. Yeah, he's a dweeb. So this guy will not get
through. McCain has already announced he wants Lindsey
Graham. I don't have an audio clip.
Oh, I didn't hear that. Now. You got me now. You're one up on me
today. Lindsey Graham.
I'm so no, I'm I'm sorry, Lieberman. I didn't mean Lindsey
Graham. Lieberman. I'm sorry, not Lindsey Graham. Oh, they
said, I said that wrong.
Here and then now you're back down at the minus one for trying
to fool me Senator John
McCain. And see I said Lieberman McCain told our sources as he
got off the Amtrak a Sella from Washington to New York. McCain
laughed and said McDonough thanked him for his input but
that McCain did not think his close pal the former Senator
from Connecticut a Democrat turn independent will be considered
for the job
there we'll see Yeah, I got put this idiot No, you can tell he
looks like a yes man. They need to Yes, man for the next two
years and he's a troublemaker working for McCain.
Well, things are already looking up for the military industrial
complex. You may recall there was a big controversy over the A
10 warthog, which they're gonna
put to keep the Warthog in play.
The Pentagon has deployed 300 airmen and 12 a 10 warthog
combat jets to the Mideast in early October. According to the
Indian Air National Guard. The six month deployment from the
100 and 22nd fighter unit is not specifically part of President
Obama's fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
But the airmen and the Jets could help troops on the ground
to route ISIS to
I love the route I love this route route route them out route
them out route them route them. Yes, that's good. A lot of a lot
of senators and Congresswoman they made their money on
the military industrial complex has is going to get a break also
with the Iranian situation because it was seems to be code
in this message. I have here little code about some thing we
might be able to sell sell Iran as they bomb unofficially bomb
Iraq
of allies gathered in Brussels today to plot strategy against
Islamic State extremists. Diplomats from more than 60
nations and organizations met at NATO headquarters. Secretary of
State John Kerry said air attacks have already done
serious damage to Islamic State fighters.
We are united and moving ahead on all fronts, and that we will
engage in this campaign for as long as it takes to prevail. And
there's a reason that we are confident that we will and that
is all of you around this table. The members of this coalition
carry declined to comment or deny reports that Iran is also
carrying out airstrikes against Islamic State forces inside
Iraq.
Iran issued its own denial today of those airstrike reports
unnamed Pentagon officials had said that Iran used aging f4
Phantom jet to launch the rails in recent days.
Which could sell them some f 20 twos it gets
an aging jets replacing time for a
sales job boys. Get on the stick.
Aging jets jesting jets yeah aging jets, you guys are idiots
get some new jets so
transparent all of this isn't it just love it. Now, this is
something that there's a confusion if we talked about it
on our Christmas show or the previous show. But anyway, I
brought the clip for a warning
today was the strongest of its kind to date, aimed directly at
the 1 million uniformed military personnel with a very visible
presence across the US. I think people shouldn't be concerned
you just never know that they're watching or hacking in its
bulletin. The FBI and Homeland Security say ISIS is currently
spotting and assessing individuals in the US who could
carry out attacks against soldiers a much more serious
threat than a standard called a jihad. This sounds like it's
much more specific, it's organized.
There's our buddy Clark as our man, FORMER HOMELAND SECURITY
and talking with our CIA guy.
Richard Clark was the DHS as well.
I don't think so. ISIS is choosing the attackers and
probably choosing the targets.
Members of the military are being told to scrub their
Facebook and social media sites have any information or family
pictures that can make them targets or provide their
location. Information mining is a real threat. This video
produced by the Air Force last year highlighted the
vulnerability
a geotagged picture from a foreign airfield post counting
the days until the next deployment.
This is an environment that this particular enemy has proven
adept at using and we don't want to give them any more advantage
than they're already trying to gain
because that's Kirby. That's the twerp Kirby curve. And by the
way, Richard Clark, Special Adviser to the National Security
Council, a chairman of the counter terrorism security
group, Assistant Secretary of State for Political military
affairs, Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for
intelligence no CIA's Richard Clarke, Man, that guy.
And this FBI warning comes in the wake of two separate and
deadly attacks in Canada. I suppose that ISIS followers
targeting uniformed soldiers there. There is no indication of
a specific threat or target. I love
that. So this whole thing, everyone's talking up a storm.
There's nothing,
nothing the sharp uptick in the number of Americans caught
supporting ISIS now has the full attention of the FBI and the
Pentagon David bullcrap.
Scary, buddy Oh, take your flags off. Don't Don't do a boo. Scrub
your Facebook.
Be a very afraid American soldiers Be very afraid and your
family this our own government. Yeah,
I know. I know.
Our own government is telling our own soldiers to be afraid
our cower in the corner. cower in place. I know this this
disgusting. I know. They should wear more badges and say Come
on. Come on, and I'll fight Yeah. Give me a deal. chop your
head off. Yes, son. Get you? No, no cower. This is an insult to
the American soldier. Yeah, he's trained. And he's and he's
supposed to cower and be ashamed of himself and not wear the
American flag. Kidding me? What is wrong with these people?
Yeah. Well, and I'm surprised this that this, as far as I'm
concerned, is this inexcusable
looking at bid into the foreign terrorist organizations? You
remember that group? The Corizon group,
though? Yeah, that was a short lived at worst thing
ever. Yeah. Well, then no, they're still around, but that
you
don't but there was short lived in terms of in terms of high
profile public relations. news stories.
I've never been on the on the list of foreign terrorist
organizations.
They never existed before, like months ago.
Well, their wiki page was created the minute they they
were Yes, as you pointed out, apparently taken out.
I don't know what the point I think that was a Corizon group
looking back on it on that whole episode, I believe was a botched
operation of some sort that has been just swept under the rug.
That's why we don't hear about it anymore. Very possibly, there
was something up they were doing some they had a plan, they were
going to do something crazy. And it was going to get the public
all worked up and something fell apart. And some mechanism didn't
work. Some guy killed himself or who knows what. And the next
thing you know, it's like Shush, forget that even happened. And
then Wiki pages disappear.
I've been hearing a lot on on NPR about the World Food
Program, which has always been involved in controversy and scam
EJ, they now say that they're out of money, and therefore they
cannot support 1.7 million Syrians with food.
I don't understand how this happens.
I know this is what we actually the entire family here is
baffled by this story. And they have I don't have a clip,
unfortunately. But I also understand the way the story
goes, because they did play it up a little bit on on the news
hour. It's the basis is we were given this food away to these
people. And we're going to stop this is the way I'm seeing it
overall. We're going to stop because of money. Not because
we're actually out of money, but because the people who pledged
to pay for this crap haven't actually come out paying or they
didn't pay us right. And then they in and I bet they never
caught it. By the way. When this was brought up on the new star.
They never called out the countries but I believe it would
be France, Germany, Switzerland, Great Britain. United States, a
bunch of countries that are all y'all were going to take care of
these refugees is a terrible problem. And I also think that
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and these other guys also
promised money and they didn't deliver it. And so the UN just
said, we're not good. We're stopping until you give us the
damn money you promised. That's my take on it.
And here's the funny thing, how this works because I was
listening money and money. I was listening to a report and the I
should have clipped that crap. And the guy was talking about
how it worked. And he said, we have the minute we get money
into the into the program, we can distribute this, this to 1.7
million Syrian refugees almost immediately. And the way it
works is people have a debit card. And the debit card is then
charged up with the money so they can go and buy food from
the local vendors. Yes, I know that. I'm thinking like bread
and soup lines and stuff. And I have this whole vision of a bomb
and we have the store debit card started so they got a visa.
Yeah.
I know. It's It's surreal.
Yeah, that's more than surreal. A debit card.
The safe way and the new Safeway store in the Atari refugee camp
in northern Jordan the Syrian cashiers wear bright blue,
tabards, that read here to help you. No need for cash. The shop
X accepts World Food Program, prepaid debit cards. safe way
safe what a scam.
Are you kidding me? safe way
good. That's probably a drive thru guy. I gotta have a Big Mac
and got my I got my card right here in this transaction fees on
that puppy. Oh, yeah, making money everywhere. Oh, yeah.
They're
making money off the off the refugees. How can we make money
off of refugee? Wow,
that's great. Hey, Angelina Jolie good work.
Isn't she the the High Representative for refugees?
I guess she is you she probably gets a piece of the action. She
says if not she should. safe way with debit cards. Yeah, what
happened to the state? Remember the Safeway employees and they
all chipped in and we flew a cargo plane and the employees
got trucks and we went over to the to the the refugees and we
handed out bread
and chocolate. That to Victoria Nuland here kids,
I just find that disturbing.
Here's a Irving NPR is going after the American Red Cross,
which is little belated, really, really, for this woman CEO Gail
McGovern for essentially lying about where the money goes.
Yeah, they packaged it all up and then they they put their
hand out however they feel is appropriate. This is going on in
Europe as well. This they're
doing a $2.2 billion business in blood. You donate the blood to
them. They sell a salad they sell it. Yeah. Yeah. People
don't know that. Well, they do.
They should even the Netherlands. I think it's the
maybe it's the headquarters of the European Red Cross. There's
all kinds of shenanigans going on. And people being fired and
people leaving and being accused of really scamming the
operation. And people don't understand that you don't when
you give money to the Red Cross. It's not like your money goes
dollar for dollar to these poor people you're seeing on the on
the telethon. It just goes into the coffers. And they divided up
how they feel as appropriate. That yeah, the Ebola stuff
didn't really go anywhere and did it. The Yeah, no do had to
google right on the homepage of of Google. They were doing a
matching campaign for Ebola. The Netherlands show some
blood soaked eyeballs, I think they could have done better
would have been much better. I agree. I agree. So I'm watching
the Japanese news. And I got this. This one was actually kind
of baffling because they play this as though the hydrogen cars
are new or something because we remember when we first started
doing this show seven years ago, the hydro bio, I had driven a
bunch of hydrogen cars, you know fuel cell cars, let's put it
that way. Yeah. And I didn't like them because and I noticed
what these cars does sounds the same to me, which is they squirt
a scream when you drive them. And if you're driving really
fast, they scream louder. It because of the nature the fuel
fuel cell just makes a screaming sound. Like
really like a high pitched whine. Yeah, like this. And it
gets on your nerves and it'll be a non starter for me.
Yeah, well, I think if there were the streets were covered
with them. It would be really annoying. But anyway, so Toyota
is decided to go ahead and I got two little clips here and one of
them is long and one short this short one is the one that's a
giveaway of why this is never gonna fly. But let's play the
hydrogel. All of a sudden Toyota has decided hydrogen cars are
gonna be sold for they're actually going for the all these
other guys have been fooling around. Toyota is going to sell
them and so they're going to sell 400 of them and they're
going to restructure the whole economy around these cars
supposedly but there any replay the
greenest eco vehicle ever developed. His hopes for the
field sell car are reflected in the name is Japanese for future.
Usually,
we couldn't think of any other name that's more appropriate for
our new car.
The four seater sedan can run about 650 kilometers on one tank
of fuel, that price is $62,000. This will come down to around
$45,000 Thanks to the government's eco car subsidy.
The fuel cell vehicle runs on hydrogen. The gas is piped to
the fuel cell where it's mixed with oxygen that creates
electricity which powers the car. The cars only emission is
water. Developers call it the ultimate eco car. data plans to
sell 400 The new vehicle in Japan by the end of next year,
it will start rolling out the model in the United States and
Europe around next summer. It took two years to 22 long years
to come up with the fuel cell car. The biggest obstacle is
getting it to run and cold weather. Water emitted by the
car froze when the temperature dropped, blocking the oxygen
intake.
What is the point of this? They're doing this now? What do
you think is going on?
I think the guy that runs Toyota, Mr. Toyota DA is nuts.
I've always thought he was he when he took over the place. It
was just been he has a name Toyo da by coincidence with a D. And
they had him talking about how we're going to have a hydrogen
economy all this stuff that we heard about. I don't know eight
years ago was a big talk about this then everyone quiet it
because I remember George Bush it was during the Bush
administration. And everyone should don't say anything about
it anymore. Because this is bullcrap. It's never gonna fly.
And this guy is talking to this. I cut a lot of stuff out and
he's yakking about the hydrogen economy. He's wearing a helmet.
Like a racecar helmet while he's talking. And they have they
solved the problem with a free rest. But then the real to me
was the one that was what what are you kidding me? Who's going
to do this part two of the clip gives gives it away this will
never fly
meeting that goal will be construction of hydrogen
refueling stations. One station costs $4.3 million.
Yeah, that seems like a non starter right there.
Yeah, that's like a couple 100,000 Maybe 300,000 to build a
gas station.
It was something interesting. That was I read it on a hot rod
atomic Adams blog about this company called Trans atomic
power startup, they got a couple million dollars. And they have a
design, which surprisingly dates back things like 1925, or
something of a small nuclear reactor that eats wastes from
other reactors. And well, here's a here's a clip. It's one of the
cofounders. Of course, they have nothing and they have a little
money in the development budget and probably won't go anywhere.
But surprisingly, she was on a GPS. That's the anti
constitutional douchebag known as Fareed Zakaria, who was
surprisingly kind to her. So you have to question why that was
taking place. Here's a clip from that interview,
what are the problems that you were trying to solve?
So each conventional nuclear power plant in the US today
produces about 20 metric tons of high level waste that's
radioactive for hundreds of 1000s of years. And there isn't,
there isn't really a solution for it yet.
Until now, perhaps using a design that was invented 50
years ago, they created the waste, annihilating, molten salt
reactor,
the waste annihilating molten salt reactor or Windsor Windsor,
we gotta get bumper stickers. I have a Windsor.
The Windsor uses molten salt to dissolve nuclear fuel, that
ultimately reduces both the radioactivity and the amount of
waste. The new reactor could create just 10 to 20 kilograms
of long lived waste per year, instead of the 20 metric tons
produced by a traditional commercial plant. 20 kilograms
of waste is about the size of a grapefruit
and the remaining waste that comes out. It's waste that's
radioactive for just a few 100 years, so much shorter than the
hundreds of 1000s of years from other plants.
And here's another big plus. Around the world today. They
exist about 270,000 metric tons of high level nuclear waste.
wham, so could eat that waste and turn it into electricity. So
this sounds great. Why wouldn't everybody? Why would everybody
adopt this design? That's, that's what we're hoping
ultimately, what is it more expensive is your plan more
expensive,
we it's actually about half the cost per megawatt overnight
construction of conventional nuclear reactors. And that makes
it, we can be on par with coal. And we're trying to reduce the
cost further to make it on par with natural gas.
It sounds like a revolution should be all over this,
what had brought Adam say about it in the newsletter,
he bought, he's the one that pointed out, he's always been
telling us about these backyard nooks the small stuff that can
eat its own waste. This has been his consistent message. And he
actually sent me an email and said, just so you know, the
World Bank released their, their, their annual study of of
energy, and we're gonna have exactly one little itty bitty
article about one small reactor, this is not in anyone's
interest, except, oh, the people, but it's not in the
interest of gas and, and oil and coal. Because once you have
this, this is not a lot of money to be made unless you want to
make the cost of the the actual electricity astronomically
expensive. And by the way, we're seeing now multiple states now
that we have the the petrol prices low, extremely low. Now
in the US, they're saying, oh, let's add 15 cents extra tax.
You see this happening? Yeah, douche bags. Exactly. When and
when for me when
I was a kid was 25 cents.
60 minutes, that big propaganda piece on Chernobyl. Which I will
remind everybody is in Ukraine.
Never mentioned in the Arctic,
but an hour and a half north of Kyiv. And if Wow. It's just you
know, oh, it's horrible. You couldn't live there. People are
dying. I encourage you to look at the documentary PANDORA'S
PROMISE where they go to Chernobyl as well and have a
very different experience. It's just didn't you go see that
movie in a theater? It was Mickey and I and no one else?
Yeah, we wait man let me get this straight. So you went to a
theater to watch a movie about a documentary I guess about this
Stuart Brand and there and there was nobody to interest even
interested enough to go see the movie so maybe you
know worse. The Bling Ring movie was in theater a and that was
packed.
Yeah, there you go. But it's a summarizes the state of affairs
in the United States in terms of public
care. Yeah, well, it's important to keep
global warming is fine. Like they got that care. I'm gonna
show my school but donate to no agenda. Imagine all the people
who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fun
well, you have a few people to thank starting with Sir Hank and
Kew Gardens New York have 12345 donation. And curiously right
after his donation came little Jays donation from St. Paul
Minnesota nuts 12345 are nice. And he was somebody said here
and some mac and cheese. Sir Swiss Santa in Switzerland Swiss
12345 It's a good number. And we'll give him some job karma at
the end of the segment. Happy Chris facer in Auburn, New South

Chelmsford, Essex at 733 we have the Jew as a donation of mark
the 87th birthday of a dude he's not on the you put dunkel Don on
the birthday list. My uncle Don that's what it says here. Ah.
I didn't know it. Maybe I didn't know his uncle Don's birthday.
Actually.
You should put him on the list. I
think he's on let me see. It's no it's not. It says Search two
coats is 87 tomorrow there'll be uncle Don is 87 tomorrow. Yes,
yes. Okay. Wow. Yeah, that's
two coats could be at 70 game 8733. Now
I'm looking at the note it looks like he's saying in honor of
that you
can look it up on the Wikipedia Algodones in there. He's got his
birthday. And a stadia pair off in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

get up and donate after John's comment about not having
listeners in Singapore, you have at least one report from
Singapore this country is all in on the visa payWave cash is
going out of style as everyone is waving their slave cards like
the media tells them to thank you for your deconstruction,
especially on the months of this Ferguson story you're spot on
and given me loads to say to those who asked me about it. I
would like to be deduced from my six months of boring boning my
six months of boning and call out my father Dennis, who hit me
in the mouth as a douchebag
we were waiting. No, he was hitting them out. Oh, he Oh,
he's calling him out as a douchebag. Misunderstood.
Yeah, I think you're doing something else. You've been
listening for six months, six years six years he's been listed
as dad's been listening for six years and never donated Here you
go that's that's when you say yeah, double douchebag if you're
poor college son can donate. So can you if there's not too much
much like a Koch brothers shout and anything else John was? Oh
you are so quick to ridicule that I'm doing something else.
I'm sorry.
No, I'm always doing something else. I'm looking stuff up. I'm
trying to keep up with what you're telling me and I'm
looking for these episodes. Sometimes you look something up
you're looking at something. I was actually having
problems scrolling down to where you were on the spreadsheet.
That was my problem. It's a technical nightmare day it

can't believe this. Hold on a second. We can't get a get lost.
Oh, here we go.
No, it's not it either. Well, anyway, oh, here it is. She's
She sent in a she's actually it's kind of interesting is only
for the fact that if I wish she sent in a handwritten note, and
it's on a on a card that she manufactured herself from one of
her photograph and
we encourage this kind of behavior and we'll gladly read
your note. If you write it out in longhand.
She sent me to Energel pans was she uses to write by hand more
than she used to because there's so much fun to use. Okay, I got
two pens. I wanted to report back. These are not the
smoothest rolling pens I've ever had by any means. So I don't
want to say anything bad about the inner gel pens, but I'm not.
I've had I'll get you the name of the ones I like which I think
are smoother rolling. Anyway, she says that she I once met me

$1 is 51 point 63 rubles and that's why it's a 5163 donation
from Brooklyn.
Okay, this is as good a logic as any Dennis crews in Beaverton,
Oregon to donate today. unemployment finally paid nice.
He said something about we put him give him another karma at

And really tired of Brian Navarro, Los Angeles, California
50. That concludes our US donor segment. There's no agenda 675
reminds you we do have a show on Sunday coming up and we'd like
to get some support. Divorced that org slash na would be the
place to go.
And I just want to double check. So we have no nice things today.
No title changes either to see. And that is a shame, but just
want to check the
some instant. So let's do this. Follow me. I got an idea. We got
coming up the big dates of 112 1314 as December 13 2014 is
coming up on a Sunday, Joe day. Really? We'd like some instant
nights that show
pro 1314 Yes.
12 1314 coming up on a Sunday and not this Sunday, that Sunday
after Sunday, a week and a half. And we'd like some insights for
that anyone who's got the nerve to do it will give what we
talked about this all a little bit, but I would like to discuss
it here on the show an extra thing that we can do to make
them a little different. Okay, and all the $1,000 Instant
knights had come and go What's the idea? The idea is to give
them the show title. Like let's say to somebody David Foley does
it Okay, Foley presents, and then the show name. Oh, wow,
this presents a Wow. Okay.
Let me let me see for this just for this. And it's only for the
end. If there's 10 people that do it. They won't be tend to be
one or maybe two, maybe none. But if there's two people that
do it, they the first the first one that comes in gets the show
title for that show on that day. The next show, the next guy gets
the next show and then so on. So if you had 10 You'd have 10
shows in a row, somebody's name at the front of it. Come and try
this out. So for instance, on the previous show, 674 The title
was nonlinear war. It would be if it was David Foley would be
grand new David Foley presents no agenda episode. 674.
Nonlinear war,
right. Wow. Okay. That's different. That's just a
Hollywood model. Again, we use like
Ryan Seacrest presents to write there you go. We'll call it the
Ryan Seacrest instant night.
Ryan right, Brian? Chris and Ryan. Yeah, Ryan's the Brio
agenda show. The blah blah, blah. Got
it. We're doing we're from now on he's known as Brian C crest.
Yeah, Brian,
done with his client. Brian and Orion.
I love it. That's great.
Well, we'll see if anybody likes that idea. If they do then we'll
find out. Well, thank
you all very much for supporting the program for the work that we
do. I'm happy that you are getting value out of our
deconstructions thank you everybody else who came in under
$50. Most for anonymity reasons many on subscriptions monthly,
go to our page to definitely hook us up to vote red.org/and A

Like Chris icebox, so Chris Bock, who turns 44 tomorrow and
serves two coats very nice to congratulate uncle Don, Greg who
will be 87 years old tomorrow still fighting the good fight on
behalf of the good guys here and get my nation happy birthday
from all your buddies. He had the best podcast in the
universe. Here's what I'd like to do. The see if I can find it.
Yeah, let's do this one haven't done this in a while
no and the second half of the second half of show John second
half of Show. Today a very important day. We have a launch
taking off. I believe it's on. Here we go. This V app V five
Atlas V. Taking off and this will launch taken off this
morning, I believe so yes, I don't know if it did. Let's find
out.
But you knew that I'll be goofing around.
I need you to pay attention. You did listen, though. You need to
listen. This is to put the Orion space vehicle into into space at
NASA has. They do great videos, they're really good at showing
you the animation of what supposedly happening. As you
know, I'm sometimes critical of facts that have been presented
to us on television. It has gotten me in a lot of trouble.
And when I was watching this NASA video, how does it get you
into any trouble? I've been banned from twit
NASA's Orion lunch scrubbed rescheduled for Friday.
Boy, well, good, then we get to talk about it more. They'll just
be tomorrow when they launched instead of today. Um, so NASA
has this great video which exploded very excited guy and
explaining how it's gonna work and what they're going to do and
how it's all going to fit together. And as I'm watching
this, I'm saying Wait, I'm at now you know the in fact that
when I was banned from said program, it was due to my
questioning of the travel through the Van Allen belts,
which are radiation belts in order to get to the moon,
right, there's a number of people that have this, this
argument. And this
is in fact one of the main reasons for this Orion Oh, let
me just play this we will discuss after
we are headed 3600 miles above Earth 15 times higher from the
planet than the International Space Station. As we get further
away from Earth will pass through the Van Allen belts an
area of dangerous radiation. Radiation like this can harm the
guidance systems onboard computers or other electronics
on Orion. Naturally, we have to pass through this danger zone
twice, once up and once back. But Orion has protection
shielding will be put to the test as the vehicle cuts through
the waves of radiation. Sensors aboard will record radiation
levels for scientists to study. We must solve these challenges
before we send people through this region of space. Okay, for
this flight, it's time to hit home. This kind of
makes my point for me. This is a big 3600 miles the distance to
the moon I might point out is 238,900 miles which we did over
40 years ago through the Van Allen belts which we now have to
somehow test because it's too dangerous for people explain
explain what explain how divine what explain Allen belts are bad
there's some areas according to the NASA folks that you can
shoot through it at high speed and get past them because
there's not one
that's not what He said He said something very different he said
that's what for reports etc.
Maybe he's going through the thick of it before we can okay
it's not just it's not as same size belt one size fits all it's
thick in some areas is thin and others so you've been there.
I've been there I've looked at the pictures
Okay, look I'm just going by what he's saying. He's saying oh
it's very dangerous we can we have to test it before we send
kit that
press conference will chime in and hold their hand up and ask
the question well that's what I liked. I
don't see any press conference this was a video which is highly
produced and and this is they
have press conferences about this I'm sure I don't even know
but I think this whole thing is bogus I think this is a spy
mission of some sort. Yes, it
makes a big deal out of 36,000 Miles
thing is this a very strange and they're not taking any chances
on this thing when they're not gonna just casually launch it.
They keep putting it off as a second or third delay as the
Exploration Flight Test the EFT one Yeah, I haven't looked into
it so much. I figured you This is more your alley. Yeah. And
there it is. I have questions I get no answers. No, you don't
know. I guess I don't deserve any answers.
Now you would say this. You The problem is you're inconsistent.
And you you make the claim that no Have you ever went to the
moon ever sometimes and in some days or where they didn't do the
initial ones to the moon, but later the later of the night, I
am completely
consistent. And I have said that I do not believe that moon
landing.
That moon landing the number one moon landing the one where they
lost. This is the only thing that gives you got a lot going
for it.
They lost all the tapes that are the originals were destroyed.
Yeah, that's all these annoying little things, John?
Yeah, well, that one I agree with losing the body. This is
like the one of the most historic events in the history
of mankind. And you lose it, you lose the tapes. Yep.
It wasn't didn't get bulk erased or something was even
stupid. Some bogus wave. I mean, that really sounds legitimate.
So okay, you got that going for you? And but you also have
claimed that they've gone up there at the other times,
because the first day? Well, I think the argument would be
well, they didn't go and take a chance on the first one botching
it up and, and killing everybody. So they phony did up.
So it was a big deal. And then they could do the other ones
with less with less eyeballs on them. But that doesn't make
sense at all. Because if you can't get through the Van Allen
belts, you can't get through the Van Allen belts under any
circumstances that would have never done gone to the moon
ever,
then that's very possible that would that would trump me that's
not inconsistent. I'm just pointing out what is being said
by NASA. Okay, that it's dangerous to push people through
it,
you have this. I've known other people that are very sincere
about this. And, and I think they I can't prove them wrong.
And they just say, well, it's the way you know, I just all
believe the government in this case, but that's okay. Because,
but if it was all bull crap, they showed it. Yeah, we're
sorry. We did that. Because you know, I would say, Ah, now there
you go.
I'd be out partying in the street.
I
would not, I would not be actually surprised. But I
disappointed.
They should just dis just copped to it already. Luckily, we have
a president who's all sciences and he's all in on the science.
He's very, very well versed over there at the National Institute
for Health, talking about the bolas. And you got a little tour
of everything last
year, I welcome Francis and some of you to the White House to
launch our brain initiative to unlock the mysteries of the mind
and pursue new cures for disease. And Francis promoted me
at the time to scientist and chief which made me very proud
although I sort of felt guilty that I hadn't studied more
chemistry. But
yeah, well he could because he's about to do something very
complicated.
I think when he's I think smacking his lips is a tell
Well, it is a tell for us or just for him.
I don't know I'm just trying to was to tell for but it seems
like a tail
or is remarkable. And I just got a fascinating tour of your
Vaccine Research Center. I have to say I was very impressed with
how you can clone a virus gene into a vaccine vector then
subjected to gel electoral for Rhesus
flurries is really I would fluorosis is it flourishes or
fluorosis
I think was flourishes. I think he's gonna say electro phosphor
resist.
And then we're lights up, right pipette the samples into a 96
Well microplate through the world's most advanced multi
parameter flow cytometer. Amen. You can read because the presser
i and I've been tinkering around the White House, setting up a
similar system will use it for brewing beer.
I thought that was pretty funny. Now, at the beginning, you heard
that he was talking about the BRAIN Initiative. I said
a minute you think you're kind of missing some of the stuff in
this clip. Now it's talking about going to where they can
create viruses, what was he talking about creative and then
clone the virus and then make a value? This sounds as though
it's like, I think the National Institute of Health was involved
with a lot of this kind of rep weaponization. Hmm, I don't
know. It just seems like a strange series of commentary
while he was visiting that well, that would make sense, wouldn't
it to make light of a situation like that? If of weaponizing
something and just joke about it that would be par for the
course. But what I was what I found interesting, and he talked
about the BRAIN Initiative, I think was like was it like $100
million thing that he started a year ago? And that was, without
doubt one of the best PR initiatives I've seen in a
while. You recall Mickey photograph brains at UT With our
brain professor, yeah, the brains and she she has not
produced those into into work that has been on display. She
you know, that has been interesting to people wanted to
license it and stuff. It's it's very different type of
photography of the brains. And we heard about him about a month
ago that another guy had been to UT. And he had made a book about
the brains at UT and he photographed them but really
much Mickey made conceptual art out of the brains, which really
shows a lot more of, you know, nature and golden ratio, and all
kinds of stuff like that. This guy really just did straight on
great photos of brains, Adam for haces, his name, and we knew
this book was coming. And then all of a sudden, we get this ut
brain stolen.
Including
was this famous? Famous criminal, Charles Whitman, who
killed 16 people, including his mother and wife before he was
fatally shot by police in 1966. His brain was also there. None
of this is true. The brains were not stolen, these things were in
the basement, don't give a crap about them. And they were poorly
labeled, but some perfect PR company has come up with this
story, which has now gone completely viral. And this guy's
book is attached to it. Totally brilliant.
You really think that's right.
What that it's a PR move.
For the guys books. Yes. 100% 100%.
Absolutely.
If that's true, that is one of the highest level of PR attacks
I've seen for a book ever.
Let us see if we can trace this back. The guy's name is Adam for
Hayes. V O R H A for Hess vor. HTS I'm telling you this is a PR
move.
Well, I'm not saying it's not possible. I'm just saying it's
pretty advanced for a
book. It would be pretty coincidental. Let's see who
publishes the book. Would that help us find out I mean, this is
like this has got to be an Edelman or someone really good.
It's got to be doing this. Let's see if we can find out who can I
find that on Amazon who publishes it. The name of the
book. It's called
no Amazon doesn't apparently half the time they never tell
you who publishes it. What's the name
of the book malformed forgotten brains of the Texas state mental
hospital wishes not true by the way
bombed brains of the Texas god
these are just brains that were in the basement we know because
the same it's the same brains that Mickey photographed and
there's all these rumors that this guy's brain was a part of
it not confirm really not true. And there was
the elephant from forgotten braised December 2 2014 just
came out
powerhouse who publishes this I'm trying to find out okay what
did say the New York Times would it say it there who published
it?
They would say in the New York Times would say
let me see I'm opening up the New York Times New York Times is
very slow to open oh here we go. Would it say to the bottom of
the story that usually when
I believe I could be wrong a powerhouse books No.
Power I was powerhouse books.
pentagram published by powerhouse books what kind of
outfit is that? You tell me
doesn't sound very very high end
no powerhouse gonna be an imprint of one of the big boys
that's what
it must be some Yeah, let's see. Let's see powerhouse books. Two
powerhouse books
is owned by Kay about as far as he's going on this kind of thing
you might as well just be a self publisher because nobody's going
to know
established 1995 Daniel power started powerhouse books it's
almost looks like a like a small little operation. Maybe that
maybe these guys are just good
let's always possible this seems like a powerhouse books I don't
see any Yeah, I know there's no way that they're just owned by
themselves. I don't believe it.
Epson best sellers
says Advanced fillers, independent book publishers
giant Dumbo space. Curl offbeat art books is what they
specialize in. This is about as offbeat as
ever, offbeat as you can get. Well,
they're not an imprint, I guess at least I can tell. I mean, if
I spent another five minutes I could probably figure it out.
But
I'm telling you This is a setup and it's brilliantly done.
Well that's it for operate little opera little publisher in
Brooklyn.
I wanted to well, well done.
I think it's a coincidence. Okay. All right. Now, if I say
that I think it's a coincidence, and it was actually a public
relations thing, high fives. Yeah. Because if that's what I'm
supposed to think
this is the kind of thing that view actually might be good at
finding out who was behind this. Think this might I might have to
put,
I would not buy my research. I just call a couple of guys in
New York. Yeah, that's what
I'm saying. You gotta go. Can you do that? I'd like to figure
that out. And to me, it was okay. This is a great,
here's the kind of here's a little interesting aspect of
this. These guys also did the Vice photo book. Ah,
well, that's interesting. You say that I have a clip about
Vice with the founder, Shane Smith, who is a frontman, Tom
Freston. And
this is a public relations driven operation, that that
always up their net worth? Oh, yeah.
This is Shane Smith, who was just a hipster beard dude. He's
a frontman and good frontman. But Tom Freston is the guy
behind this, who was the CEO of MTV Networks? Very, very smart
guy. He knows how to do this. He's pumped this valuation up so
high, and they are on a buying spree. And here's Shane Smith of
vice in conversation with I already Jeff Jarvis. And they're
talking about acquisitions. There's
a real hot market for acquisitions in high tech but
not in media. So we saw a lot of distressed media assets out
there be they magazines, be they web platform by a magazine.
Well, we've bought magazines it's good business for us. Like
we bought ID magazine right? And we turned it into an online
entity and now Chanel and Prada and LVMH are lining up to give
us you know, eight figure numbers so I'm gonna bully for
you. There's a lot of distress media sets out here say believe
for you that I
said bully for you. I said that like prod and everybody lined up
because he figured number a lot of
distress media sets out there. Some of them in TV that we can
go after that we believe are would be you know, look HLN is a
distressed media assets a great it's a great opportunity,
because they're doing a very bad job. And we believe we could do
a better job
HLN headline news. Bingo, Boom shakalaka well look out Nancy
Grace. And these guys are they are all about the PR and they'll
take money from the State Department. They'll take money
from the Russians to do anything. Ah,
well there may be some PR thing to it. I don't know why they
want to play the male form brains book. But they could pull
that off just to show off maybe
while everyone ran with it it's USA Today CNN everyone's all Oh,
this is so funny. And then Olden brain Yeah, it's one thing to
have the stolen stolen brain story but then they immediately
this guy is is talking about it. The guy he launched it someone
launched this bullcrap store that there's no brain from the
mystery criminal these are these are poorly labeled pieces of
crap.
Yeah, well, this is a good thing you had Mickey do this work
because he got his some inside scoop we would not even notice
this story where you might have because his local but the story
just passed me over. I never heard anything about any of
this. All right. Interesting. You might be right there. Got
the updated on the drone report. No, I wanted I don't even want
to play that. Forget it. There's going after the drone guys again
to Christina, do you find it? Unusual? That good catch good
men.
Good catch. You're gonna say weird. You did unusual. Good.
Unusual. Well, thank you. I don't I'm still trying to get
the yes no thing.
We said essentially a lot today and I've just let you slide.
I do have the weird thing under control. But that would yes. No
thing is still mysterious.
So let's do the drone.
So do you find it unusual that Amy Goodman, who goes on and on
about Obama and the drones still big supporter of all these
people bitch about the drones constantly. And there's still a
huge Obama bots?
Do you want me to answer the question or play the clip? Yeah,
I want you to answer the question. You play the play the
clip and then answer the question.
A new report finds us drone strikes kill on average 28
unidentified people for every intended target. While the Obama
administration has claimed its drone strikes are precise. The
group reprieve found that strikes targeting 41 People in
Yemen and Pakistan have killed more than 1000 other unnamed
people, and its attempts to kill a Qaeda leader I Manasa weary
alone to CIA killed 76 children and 29 adults as a weary remains
alive.
Joining us from Berlin is Jennifer Gibson, staff attorney
at reprieve, author of the new report, you never die twice.
First of all, Jennifer, why that title and talk about your main
findings.
I think the title is quite self explanatory. Explanatory for us.
Basically, what happened is we started noticing a pattern among
the drone strikes with our investigations in Pakistan and
Yemen. And the the pattern was that the same high value target
seemed to die again and again and again. So when we started
digging into it, and looking at the news reporting, what we
found was that in targeting 41, high value targets, the US took
on average three times, there was three attempts to kill them.
And actually with seven of the individuals, they didn't even
kill them.
Do they haven't we discovered this way before this report came
out when we're discussing the actions in North Shore in
Algeria? Sure. We kept seeing the same guy getting killed.
It's
it happens every day, over and over and he pops up again.
He's dead again.
Well, I told you that Uncle Don is still all in on this. He
feels the drums are the way to go. surgical strikes is perfect.
And I fight him on that, you know, we're killing suspected
militants. This isn't we're not even this is what it is now
suspected militants, which is, you know, code for kids.
Yeah, kids, and then
why and why are we doing it? Because they're, they're going
to jump on there. And they're Toyota and drive over and kill
us here. Why we're droning them in Yemen. We're doing them in,
in Pakistan Waziristan. I did talk to the liquor guy who was
from Pakistan, our local liquor store here on the corner. I
said, Hey, man, what is the what is the deal with you in India,
with the, you know, with the Kashmir and all that? And he
says, you know, what's going on what is going on, but it's just
the terrorists. The terrorists are being sent down from
Pakistan in India. This whole Kashmir, you know, there's water
that's, that's important. We hate each other screw those
guys. And it's just this is going to be a never ending story
of terrorists coming to India. And, and that's kind of it. We
just hate each other. Okay, that's really good. But why are
we then going and droning everybody and killing suspected
militants? He says, pipeline protection. Thank you very much.
That's all I wanted to hear. Pipeline protection. Surely, but
it is, of course, inexplicable, that people are not disgusted by
this, just completely and
utterly disgusted Obama bots. It doesn't make sense
completely and utterly disgusted.
So I have a couple of there's a story I get got that I think is
just bogus, doesn't make sense, in any way, shape or form as to
Syria. This is the Syria update and tell me what you think
doesn't make sense about this story.
And in Syria, President Bashar Al Assad said today that
airstrikes against Islamic State targets in his country have done
no good. He told a French magazine that only ground troops
can defeat the militants.
Yeah, this is an interview I got an update from
inviting ground troops on the ground. Yes, he crazy. Bull crap
is no way. He said that here
is sub seven zero who is in Syria. sent this to me this
morning. President Al Assad did an exclusive interview with
Paris Match magazine. And this is out now today. So it was an
interview by French magazine. And your three Q and A's? Are
the coalition strikes helping you Bashar Al Assad says you
can't end terrorism with aerial strikes. troops on the ground
that know the land and can react are essential. That's why there
haven't been any tangible results in the two months of
strikes led by the coalition. Are you afraid to suffer the
same demise as Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi and Bashar
Al Assad says the captain doesn't think about death, or
life he thinks about saving the ship. And Francois Alon
continues to refer to you as an adversary. Do you think contact
can ever be reestablished? Assad says it's not a question of
personal relations. As a matter of fact, I don't even know him.
It's about relations between states and institutions and the
interests of two nations we will work with any French dignitary
or government in our common interest. Notice it's about the
French, but the current administration is working
against the interests of our people and that of the French
people. I'm neither personal enemy, a rival of Alana think
that Danish is rival and the Danish is his rival and their
popularity is very much the same. So this came out of Amy
Goodman is just parroting this this interview
from the that was actually would refund comm sorry, news hour,
right? All right. Well, how about This one Do you have a
follow up on this?
By the way? How cool was that that I just had very good.
I thought okay, Sweden update.
And Sweden is called its first snap election for more than half
a century after a far right party helped defeat the center
left minority governments and first budget in Parliament. The
elections in September I handed the anti immigration Sweden
Democrats the balance of power, and they continue to threaten to
make the country ungovernable unless the country adopts tough
new immigration policies.
Well, you will not believe this. John. This morning, I received
an update from our global intelligence network from
different from Sweden. Would you like
to hear Yeah, hello. No, it sounds like we were rehearsing
No, this
is not rehearsed. This is not this is not rehearsed. As you
probably know, or we have an interesting time in Sweden, the
Sweden Democrats who are foreign or hostile right wing party,
make note of that have just voted down the ruling
administration purpose for the budget that has resulted that
the Swedish Minister Stephane Leuven who is of the Social
Democrats have called the new election which will take place
in March. Couple funny things going on here. I do love the
love our global intelligence network, the best. First of all,
not a single party wants to discuss the Sweden Democrats,
even now that they are the third largest party in Sweden. I
believe that this is something that has pissed off a lot of
sweets. A survey made today says that 44% of the Swedish people
thinks that Sweden Democrats and these are right wingers, not not
not
you Kip of Sweden, yes.
Have 44% of the Swedish people think the Sweden Democrats did
the right thing to throw the ruling administration out by not
voting for their budget. All the politician tell the media This
is an outrage and not how it's done in Sweden. The Sweden
Democrats think the Swedish parliament is just the
playground. Only problem is that most of the Swedish people think
exactly the same thing. All the other parties are blaming each
other and the Sweden Democrats for what just has happened and
here's the latest meme from Sweden. I have taken
responsibility or we are going to continue to take
responsibility. Something every politician in Sweden is telling
the media today funny how everyone is so damn responsible
but we're still in this mess. I want to add that in Sweden, we
have the FRA fra has been spying on Russia for the for the US for
a long time. This is the connection. This is how we get
the WikiLeaks connection with Assange with Sweden's fra which
I guess what is it? What does it stand for? Let me say is the
natty something in Swedish National Defense Radio
Establishment. Okay. Fra has been spying on Russia for the US
for a long time and from 2008 they can listen to wired and
wireless traffic without a court order. So now when the Finns are
routing their internet traffic through Sweden, it's a really
nice time for the Swedish security service and Swedish
government to collect some nice information. Love the show, I'll
be donating soon. I asked if if there was a if, if this UKIP of
Sweden, the Sweden Democrats if they were really anti Muslim,
and he came back and said, now they're really foreign, foreign
or hostile. They want to cut down the number of people that
come come to Sweden from different countries around the
world. They got a lot from Africa and the Middle East. And
a lot of Africans go to Sweden.
I didn't know that either. I don't. Yeah, they must be very
ghettoized. Since it's
tough for the economy in Sweden right now. It's the same
everywhere. The not so intelligent people think the
foreigners are coming here to steal our jobs. Of course they
are. Hello, we know that to eat your food. The only the only
problem is that not so intelligent people pretty much
don't work in the first place. Prime Minister Stephen Lavon
said it's hard to imagine how 13% of the people can vote for a
party that are afraid of the Muslims. He says the Sweden
Democrats are not they want to reduce the immigration rate
overall. But on the other hand, the Secret Service was
interviewed in the largest paper in Sweden. They said they had
been phone tapping and following people who just visited Syria.
We got the same bullshit we got Oh, you got people going over to
Syria and coming back to to blow you up. However, then he says we
are here in Sweden are not afraid that we will be attacked
by isI si s or ISIL or any other organization. But of course the
large newspapers are trying to start something to make us
worried but in general, nobody gives a crap. Oh, good on you.
Yeah, the Swedes are pretty laid back. I like to have opinions
but they're not like nervous Nellies like we are apparently
okay. Okay, getting stomped on now. 1/3 try. Oh, please.
Really? All right. Venezuela update. I
can tell you right now I have no update.
And he is the country's president. She is a prominent
opposition leader. And she's now been charged with conspiracy to
an alleged plot to assassinate It is the situation in Venezuela
where Maria Karina Machado is vehemently rejecting charges
that she has been involved in any plot to kill President
Nicolas Maduro.
The political turmoil continues in Venezuela. Opposition Leader
Maria Karina Machado has been put under investigation for her
alleged participation in a plot to kill President Nicolas
Maduro. Hundreds of protesters were gathered outside the
Attorney General's office to support the former Congresswoman
Maria Machado responded to a summons to attend the closed
hearing on Wednesday, and said she had nothing to hide.
again proven we don't know what the hell's going on in
Venezuela? No, we really don't know we don't. We have a few
people that write in and tell us some stuff, you know, are part
of the network, but they seem to have political agendas. And I
don't know it's just gonna be hard to get a grip on it.
I wanted to read you the little article here which falls in the
saps category. From the UK prosecutors, they're really
clamping down on free speech. I don't think you really even have
free speech in the United you know, the United States of Gitmo
nation East United Kingdom's the prosecutors have now set of
guidelines on which or whether which message is posted on
social media could be treated as a crime. These are words, words,
put on computer networks, that can be a crime. The Lord
Advocate Frank Mulholland said the test is simple. If it would
be illegal to say it on the street, it's illegal to say it
online. What to in the United States John, by view as a
constitutional scholar, of course, what would be legal to
say?
What were actually certain kinds of threats against the
president?
Okay, is it illegal? Or is it an offence? Is it Is that an actual
Federal offense? A law? Okay,
it's still legal, and it's been held up by the by the Supreme
Court. Everything else is pretty much fair game, it seems to me
you can't really threatened people. But I don't think it's
illegal. I think you're gonna use son of a bitch. I'm gonna
kill you. They would be if they got against Dad, you did use
that against you. But I don't think it's not illegal that I
know of I think they're trying to make it illegal.
I would say this is one of the one of the guidelines, if the
communication constitutes credible threats of violence to
a person damage to property or to incite public disorder. Would
that be illegal in America?
I, you know, I think it's I think it's pretty much of a gray
area, I don't think it is,
well, here's what I know that we can do. Well, for now, you may
not in the UK on social media, specifically target an
individual or group. And with a hate crime, domestic abuse or
stalking message.
You can't say, hey,
there was this guy. Remember, the case we talked about was the
Facebook case that just went to the Supreme Court. And what he
was saying was, I want to show my wife saying, I want to kill
my wife, I'm going to kill you. I know where you live. I'm going
to kill you. But But I'm just joking or something he was
looking at as essential. Jay, can I kind of along those lines,
although I think he prefaced it with? If I'm not mistaken, he
said, I I know that there's free free speech and not free speech
and what's legal, what's not legal, for example, I know it's
not legal to say I'm going to kill you. I know where you live.
And that was this premise. And then he did a rap song is is
just as artistic expression. Right. And he was just skirting
around. So I guess it's illegal. But we
have not seen an opinion on that yet. Have we? I
don't think that I was not done. I continue to admit. No,
I don't know. I don't think I might think that. But I don't
think there's an opinion yet. Okay, well, you may not post
anything on social media that may amount to a breach of a
court order or contravene legislation, making it a
criminal offence to release republish information relating
to proceedings. whistleblowers.
Also, if you get one of those security letters, that's still
legal to be
there. But how about just WikiLeaks, WikiLeaks in general,
you cannot post
WikiLeaks is illegal. There'll be illegal here too. And
finally, think I think WikiLeaks is half illegal already.
Finally, in UK, you might post something on social networks
that do not fall into the above categories, but are nonetheless
considered to be grossly offensive.
Indecent, obscene, obscene,
or involve the fault the communication of false
information about an individual or group which results in advert
or consequences. You better leave the UK people
will get off Twitter that's for sure this legislation
is important. The substance is right. The time is right. And
the way in which it has been developed his right is a
properly considered thought through set of proposals that
will help to keep us safe at a time of very significant danger.
It has been drawn up in close consultation with the police and
security services. In an open and free society like ours, we
can never entirely eliminate the threat from terrorism, but we
must do everything possible consistent with our values as a
country to reduce the risk presented by our enemies. It is
a struggle that will go on for many years, and the threat we
face right now is perhaps greater than it ever has been.
And we must have the powers relieved powers means powerless
means to defend ourselves.
There you go. It's all good everybody. Podcast licensed
coming soon.
Yeah, but we'll be able to get one until they listen to the
podcast. Hey,
these guys are no good. These guys
can't give that damn. Like that talking like that. I'm gonna
take that away from those Joe bronies.
Put him on probation. Send them a stern warning letter.
Alrighty, everybody. Well, we'll see what more bullcrap comes
down the pipe. We got a couple of things I'm working on. And
see if I can get more from that Putin address now that I have
it. State of the Union. What is today Thursday is Thursday.
Tomorrow be Friday. We're listeners in that Russian area
of Brooklyn, New York. Right? So rushes astonishing. Coming to
you,
I'm sorry. Like,
I don't know next time I'm in. I've always wanted to just go
there and eat food. It's got to have some of the most authentic
stuff around anywhere. I'm sorry. This district has no
problem
