00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:04,783
30 tons? Adam Curry. John C. DeVora. It's Sunday, July

2
00:00:04,903 --> 00:00:07,665
12th, 2026. This is your award-winning Get More Nation Media

3
00:00:07,685 --> 00:00:16,931
assassination episode 1885. This is no agenda. We're sad, and

4
00:00:17,051 --> 00:00:20,773
we're broadcasting live from the swanky southern district of Amsterdam,

5
00:00:20,833 --> 00:00:24,336
the Netherlands. In the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And

6
00:00:24,396 --> 00:00:27,418
from Northern Silicon Valley, where we're all wondering who killed

7
00:00:27,438 --> 00:00:32,721
Lindsey Graham, I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.

8
00:00:32,721 --> 00:00:34,883
In the morning. You know, it was a little bit

9
00:00:34,903 --> 00:00:37,364
of a shock to me. I'm sure everyone had that

10
00:00:37,444 --> 00:00:40,506
feeling. Like, this is not the guy you, you know,

11
00:00:40,546 --> 00:00:43,868
we're all waiting for Mitch McConnell, the croak. Sorry if

12
00:00:43,949 --> 00:00:47,011
I put it that crudely. Mitch McConnell may have been

13
00:00:47,051 --> 00:00:49,732
dead for weeks. Well, exactly. We don't even know that.

14
00:00:50,473 --> 00:00:53,275
They have to keep that a secret. Why? Because of

15
00:00:53,315 --> 00:00:56,837
the politics of Kentucky, which is run by a Democrat

16
00:00:56,977 --> 00:00:59,959
governor. And if he dies. Then a Democrat gets to,

17
00:01:00,019 --> 00:01:02,381
then the governor gets to put in whoever he wants.

18
00:01:02,461 --> 00:01:05,823
Is that how it works? Yes. Oh, no, no. And

19
00:01:05,883 --> 00:01:08,084
so they have to, so they keep that under wraps.

20
00:01:08,585 --> 00:01:10,506
Oh, I've had a long chat with him. Oh, yeah,

21
00:01:10,586 --> 00:01:12,628
20 minutes. I had a long chat with him. He's

22
00:01:12,648 --> 00:01:18,892
doing great. So there's some deadline where after, I think,

23
00:01:19,052 --> 00:01:22,274
August 15th. At some point in August, maybe it's the

24
00:01:22,314 --> 00:01:26,076
1st. At some point in August, if he dies after

25
00:01:26,177 --> 00:01:29,619
that, then they have to do it. They let it

26
00:01:29,679 --> 00:01:33,381
slide to the election or something along those lines. So

27
00:01:33,441 --> 00:01:36,663
they're worried sick they're going to get out. That makes

28
00:01:36,683 --> 00:01:40,066
so much sense because I hadn't considered Kentucky. I didn't

29
00:01:40,066 --> 00:01:43,268
know Kentucky had a Democrat governor. Yeah, Beshear, the famous

30
00:01:43,308 --> 00:01:49,412
Beshear. Beshear, that's right. Well, so when I heard this

31
00:01:49,452 --> 00:01:54,255
very early here, most people were asleep probably. And it's

32
00:01:54,275 --> 00:01:56,777
always great how many people think I don't know that

33
00:01:56,817 --> 00:02:01,360
Lindsey Graham died. My goodness. Everybody, in case you hadn't

34
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,502
heard. In case you hadn't heard. I appreciate it. Well,

35
00:02:04,782 --> 00:02:07,864
they figure you're in Europe. Yeah. It's not news in

36
00:02:08,104 --> 00:02:12,767
Europe. No. No one here cares. But I do because

37
00:02:12,867 --> 00:02:16,390
for as much as... We laughed about them. You know,

38
00:02:16,570 --> 00:02:19,812
Lady G, Lindy Hop. I think at one point we

39
00:02:19,872 --> 00:02:24,675
even had a trigger warning. Didn't we have a Lindsey

40
00:02:24,735 --> 00:02:27,417
Graham trigger warning? I don't remember a Lindsey Graham trigger

41
00:02:27,497 --> 00:02:30,699
warning, but it would be something we'd do. I have

42
00:02:31,460 --> 00:02:34,882
the view trigger warning. I'm sure we had it. Let

43
00:02:34,922 --> 00:02:38,985
me see, Lindsay or Lind? I bet you we had

44
00:02:39,065 --> 00:02:42,687
that. Would it be Graham? I looked for end of

45
00:02:42,767 --> 00:02:46,169
show mixes. Graham. Here, oh here we go. Listen, I

46
00:02:46,250 --> 00:02:48,311
believe in a one China policy, but I would be

47
00:02:48,451 --> 00:02:55,316
willing to fight for Taiwan. Bye. Okay. Not quite a

48
00:02:55,376 --> 00:02:59,258
trigger warning. Not quite. It says trigger warning, but it

49
00:02:59,298 --> 00:03:00,959
wasn't what I thought it was. So there's the way

50
00:03:00,999 --> 00:03:04,001
I'm looking at this as a possibility. I mean, we

51
00:03:04,121 --> 00:03:07,544
know about the pricker. Yeah. And there's different ways you

52
00:03:07,544 --> 00:03:12,927
can induce a heart attack. And so the suspects, if

53
00:03:12,987 --> 00:03:16,249
he was killed, it could be Iran. It could be

54
00:03:16,469 --> 00:03:19,992
Russia. It could be China, based on that last clip

55
00:03:20,032 --> 00:03:23,234
you just played. It also could be the Vax. No,

56
00:03:23,474 --> 00:03:27,197
it's so obvious. No. And in my opinion, it was

57
00:03:27,297 --> 00:03:31,159
genetics. No, I can't believe that you missed the obvious.

58
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:37,884
Which is what? Exploding microphone. Come on. The genetics is

59
00:03:37,964 --> 00:03:43,988
the key. No one's discussing genetics. His dad. Oh, really?

60
00:03:44,028 --> 00:03:49,491
As a former hospital patient in the heart wards, the

61
00:03:49,591 --> 00:03:53,474
thing that keep coming around, do you have any heart

62
00:03:53,554 --> 00:03:56,576
disease in your family? Yeah. In your family, your mom,

63
00:03:56,616 --> 00:03:58,037
your dad, blah, blah, blah. They go on and they

64
00:03:58,097 --> 00:04:01,940
make a big fuss about it. Lindsey Graham's father died

65
00:04:02,060 --> 00:04:07,864
of heart failure at 68. Yeah. you That will do

66
00:04:07,964 --> 00:04:12,447
it, wouldn't it? And that's Occam's razor. That's the easiest

67
00:04:12,567 --> 00:04:15,028
explanation. I mean, we'd all like to think he was

68
00:04:15,128 --> 00:04:18,130
killed by the Iranians who had, you know, headed out

69
00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:20,552
for him, but no. To what end, though? To what

70
00:04:20,652 --> 00:04:23,994
end? Like, as a message, somehow? What would the point

71
00:04:24,074 --> 00:04:26,616
be? It would be no point. If you don't claim

72
00:04:26,616 --> 00:04:29,198
it. There's no point in killing Lindsey Graham. No. In

73
00:04:29,278 --> 00:04:32,880
fact, it's sad. The conspiracy theorists are fun to listen

74
00:04:32,940 --> 00:04:36,082
to, but there's no point. It was genetics, plain and

75
00:04:36,202 --> 00:04:38,704
simple. I'm with you. I'm with you. I saw him,

76
00:04:39,184 --> 00:04:44,868
his last, appearance there with the with Zelensky, and he

77
00:04:44,928 --> 00:04:48,490
didn't look that great. He looked a little more stripped

78
00:04:48,590 --> 00:04:51,412
over. Well, he's tired. He flew to Ukraine and back.

79
00:04:51,873 --> 00:04:54,454
Yeah. That guy's beat himself up. I'm surprised he got

80
00:04:54,474 --> 00:04:57,696
to 71. Well, anyway, here's just, since we have it

81
00:04:57,776 --> 00:05:00,238
on record, one of the first reports that came out

82
00:05:00,398 --> 00:05:02,279
at this hour. We have just learned in the last

83
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:04,881
few moments that Senator Lindsey Graham from the state of

84
00:05:04,981 --> 00:05:08,644
South Carolina has died at the age of 71. His

85
00:05:08,704 --> 00:05:11,386
staff said in a brief statement posted to social media

86
00:05:11,426 --> 00:05:14,247
just late tonight that the senator has suffered from a

87
00:05:14,488 --> 00:05:18,330
brief illness and then passed away. This was... This, by

88
00:05:18,410 --> 00:05:23,413
the way, was annoying. A brief and sudden illness. I

89
00:05:23,413 --> 00:05:25,995
mean, couldn't they just say heart attack? I mean, we

90
00:05:26,075 --> 00:05:29,137
know that. Well, later this morning, I noticed as the

91
00:05:29,217 --> 00:05:31,879
reports came in, the later ones just before the show.

92
00:05:32,139 --> 00:05:35,281
Yeah. They all talked about cardiac arrest. Yeah, because someone

93
00:05:35,321 --> 00:05:38,824
heard that on the police scanner. That's what that was.

94
00:05:40,325 --> 00:05:42,326
Well, that makes a little more sense than a sudden

95
00:05:42,566 --> 00:05:45,068
illness. Yes, yeah. Well, that's why. Why can't you just

96
00:05:45,068 --> 00:05:47,069
say he had a heart attack? I mean, why so

97
00:05:47,229 --> 00:05:50,932
cryptic about a sudden and brief and sudden illness? Well,

98
00:05:50,972 --> 00:05:54,074
I guess technically that's right. That was the press release.

99
00:05:54,134 --> 00:05:55,975
That's the problem. Well, that was from his office. That's

100
00:05:55,995 --> 00:05:58,577
where that came from. Yeah, from his office. That was

101
00:05:58,897 --> 00:06:00,498
odd. I mean, why? Why don't you just say he

102
00:06:00,538 --> 00:06:05,121
had a heart attack? Well, that's... Annoying. It's annoying. It's

103
00:06:05,161 --> 00:06:07,563
annoying. It's annoying, yeah. Minimally. If I die of a

104
00:06:07,603 --> 00:06:10,925
heart attack, tell everybody it was the Russian pricker right

105
00:06:10,965 --> 00:06:15,368
away. Put out a good release. Well, definitely. So here's...

106
00:06:15,488 --> 00:06:17,689
I got a couple of shorties here from CNN. We're

107
00:06:17,749 --> 00:06:22,272
learning that longtime Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has passed away.

108
00:06:23,133 --> 00:06:26,355
His office says he died on Saturday night after what

109
00:06:26,395 --> 00:06:29,837
they call a brief and sudden illness. The statement says

110
00:06:29,877 --> 00:06:33,600
Graham's family is asking for privacy at this time. He

111
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,322
represented the state of South Carolina in the U.S. Congress

112
00:06:36,342 --> 00:06:41,665
since 1995. Let's bring in CNN's Alex Michelson, anchor of

113
00:06:41,685 --> 00:06:45,548
The Story Is. Alex, you are on the West Coast

114
00:06:45,628 --> 00:06:49,430
there. How are you processing this news that has just

115
00:06:49,490 --> 00:06:52,012
come in, the shocking death of a senator who had

116
00:06:52,112 --> 00:06:55,074
just been in Ukraine and had just met with the

117
00:06:55,114 --> 00:06:58,036
Ukrainian president, and now we're learning he has died? I

118
00:06:58,536 --> 00:07:00,678
love that. He was just in Ukraine, and now he's

119
00:07:00,778 --> 00:07:04,240
dead. How do you feel? What are you feeling? How

120
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:08,343
are you feeling in this moment? There's this coming out

121
00:07:08,423 --> 00:07:14,267
of nowhere that Lindsey Graham, one of the most important

122
00:07:14,307 --> 00:07:17,149
and influential voices in the United States Senate, it for

123
00:07:17,289 --> 00:07:22,612
many years now This is what's kind of sickening. I

124
00:07:22,692 --> 00:07:24,854
mean, we'll be honest about it. We were kind of

125
00:07:25,574 --> 00:07:29,157
annoyed by Lindsey Graham. He was a warmonger. He always

126
00:07:29,177 --> 00:07:32,359
wanted to bomb everything. He wanted to kill everybody. He

127
00:07:32,419 --> 00:07:36,081
seemed to like killing. And somehow we had affection for

128
00:07:36,161 --> 00:07:40,224
him. But I don't hear many people just coming out

129
00:07:40,224 --> 00:07:42,526
and saying, hey, man, he was kind of a crazy

130
00:07:42,606 --> 00:07:45,267
warmonger. You know what I mean? No, they're not going

131
00:07:45,327 --> 00:07:47,189
to do that. Well, why not? Why wouldn't they? One

132
00:07:47,209 --> 00:07:50,751
of the most influential voices in the Senate. You know,

133
00:07:50,751 --> 00:07:53,353
you speak ill of the dead. I mean, they'll get

134
00:07:53,373 --> 00:07:55,814
to that later, maybe. No, I don't think so. Not

135
00:07:55,834 --> 00:07:57,235
the way we can do it. Well, you know, he

136
00:07:57,375 --> 00:08:02,199
is. He did represent the military-industrial complex as good as

137
00:08:02,259 --> 00:08:04,880
you can get. Yeah. As good as it gets. I

138
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,323
mean, yes, absolutely. Somebody who has been one of the

139
00:08:08,463 --> 00:08:13,646
biggest champions of more United States military intervention. There it

140
00:08:13,686 --> 00:08:17,889
is. championed the idea of military intervention in Iran for

141
00:08:17,929 --> 00:08:21,791
many years, somebody who's championed the United States relationship with

142
00:08:21,932 --> 00:08:26,334
Israel very closely for many years, and now all of

143
00:08:26,355 --> 00:08:29,176
a sudden, you know, there's been so much conversation about

144
00:08:29,317 --> 00:08:34,800
Mitch McConnell's medical reality right now. Nobody would have thought

145
00:08:35,380 --> 00:08:38,102
this would come now. All right, so then we get

146
00:08:38,142 --> 00:08:42,485
into the... uh who what happens now as we all

147
00:08:42,485 --> 00:08:45,307
i think are just in shock at the idea that

148
00:08:45,367 --> 00:08:49,650
lindsey graham has suddenly died and and also reflecting on

149
00:08:49,710 --> 00:08:54,793
a life of decades of public service and he was

150
00:08:54,853 --> 00:08:57,175
just in Ukraine. He was just meeting with the Ukrainian

151
00:08:57,395 --> 00:09:02,599
president. What did he accomplish on that trip? And assuming

152
00:09:02,699 --> 00:09:04,320
from what we saw in all of the videos, the

153
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,081
statements that he was making, he appeared to be in

154
00:09:06,781 --> 00:09:10,043
very good health, just in usual form. There was certainly

155
00:09:10,063 --> 00:09:13,206
no outward indication that there was anything physically wrong. His

156
00:09:13,286 --> 00:09:17,328
office saying this was a very brief, sudden and brief

157
00:09:17,468 --> 00:09:26,774
illness, they said in their statement. posting about President Trump's

158
00:09:26,915 --> 00:09:29,396
trip to NATO and conversations that he was having with

159
00:09:29,456 --> 00:09:33,659
folks about that like two days ago. So how brief

160
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:39,583
was this illness? We don't know what exactly that means.

161
00:09:39,723 --> 00:09:42,225
Is that a heart attack? At this point, I think

162
00:09:42,285 --> 00:09:44,626
a lot of it would be speculation to try to

163
00:09:44,706 --> 00:09:48,349
think about that. But yeah, I mean, Lindsey Graham, by

164
00:09:48,529 --> 00:09:53,672
every indication, was working up until the very last day

165
00:09:53,952 --> 00:09:57,595
and certainly putting out a public image that there were

166
00:09:58,035 --> 00:09:59,596
no issues at all.

167
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,981
Now, supposedly, President Trump spoke to him at 7 o'clock

168
00:10:03,082 --> 00:10:05,323
last night, getting ready for the save. Actually, according to,

169
00:10:05,523 --> 00:10:07,424
he was on Meet the Press this morning. Yeah, that's

170
00:10:07,445 --> 00:10:10,146
what I heard. And, yeah, I heard, I watched it.

171
00:10:10,827 --> 00:10:13,269
I could have clipped it, but it was just Trump.

172
00:10:13,549 --> 00:10:16,731
Yeah, just Trump. You know Trump. With a bad phone

173
00:10:16,811 --> 00:10:18,632
connection. It had some kind of buzz in it. It

174
00:10:18,652 --> 00:10:22,034
was really bad. And Lindsey Graham was scheduled to do

175
00:10:22,155 --> 00:10:25,817
the show today. Yes. Which is the funny thing. And

176
00:10:26,998 --> 00:10:28,919
Trump said he sounded fine. He talked to him at

177
00:10:29,039 --> 00:10:34,843
7. night and then they died maybe around 8:30 I

178
00:10:34,983 --> 00:10:37,505
may have been the last guy to talk, well, he's

179
00:10:37,585 --> 00:10:41,428
obviously somebody in the house talked to him, but. And

180
00:10:41,448 --> 00:10:44,430
he said he sounded fine, except he was tired. Yeah.

181
00:10:45,551 --> 00:10:47,732
So what's... But by the way, what was he doing

182
00:10:47,812 --> 00:10:52,715
in Ukraine? Oh, I can tell you. I actually, glad

183
00:10:52,795 --> 00:10:56,378
you asked. He did, he had a whole press conference.

184
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,561
And I have, I clipped a couple of... This is

185
00:11:01,642 --> 00:11:04,263
here. I clipped a couple of his things here. Yeah,

186
00:11:04,283 --> 00:11:08,326
this is it. China has an oversized influence. I'd like

187
00:11:08,386 --> 00:11:11,508
them to use their influence. For the good of the

188
00:11:11,528 --> 00:11:15,931
world. I don't believe Putin is there yet. But it

189
00:11:15,971 --> 00:11:20,094
wouldn't take much to get him there. And the sooner

190
00:11:20,174 --> 00:11:23,917
we can have a dialogue about peace... The quicker this

191
00:11:24,017 --> 00:11:27,659
war is over. I've never been more optimistic than I

192
00:11:27,779 --> 00:11:31,262
am today. that we have the formula to end this

193
00:11:31,322 --> 00:11:36,986
war. Help your train be more lethal. Let those supporting

194
00:11:37,086 --> 00:11:40,648
Russia to know. I love this. The formula to stop

195
00:11:40,728 --> 00:11:43,990
this war is let Ukraine be more lethal. Sounds like

196
00:11:44,010 --> 00:11:45,872
a plan. It's going to be a price to be

197
00:11:45,972 --> 00:11:48,373
paid if you keep doing it. And to try to

198
00:11:48,433 --> 00:11:53,177
find an off ramp, not to humiliate Putin, but to

199
00:11:53,297 --> 00:11:59,121
end this war. so that Ukraine will thrive and survive.

200
00:11:59,701 --> 00:12:02,583
We have a magic moment in time here. In the

201
00:12:02,663 --> 00:12:08,327
coming months, if we do this right, increase Ukraine's lethality,

202
00:12:09,388 --> 00:12:13,270
get people to help us with Putin rather than propping

203
00:12:13,350 --> 00:12:17,133
him up. We can end this war. So his whole

204
00:12:17,213 --> 00:12:22,016
plan was get China to lean on Putin. What's that

205
00:12:22,016 --> 00:12:24,198
got to do with his trip? He could have made

206
00:12:24,258 --> 00:12:28,221
that same announcement. in South Carolina. He doesn't have to

207
00:12:28,401 --> 00:12:31,523
be in... What was the real point of going to

208
00:12:31,663 --> 00:12:33,704
Ukraine? It doesn't make any sense. Well, he was in

209
00:12:33,844 --> 00:12:38,347
Turkey, you know, so... Do you hear, like... Do you

210
00:12:38,387 --> 00:12:40,349
hear, like, the audio cutting out from time to time,

211
00:12:40,349 --> 00:12:43,971
or is that just me? It's not happening over here.

212
00:12:44,392 --> 00:12:49,895
Okay. He was in Ankara trying to sell stuff. And

213
00:12:50,596 --> 00:12:52,857
he's probably also going over to Ukraine. Hey, man, you

214
00:12:52,917 --> 00:12:54,919
got to talk to those Europeans. Buy some more stuff

215
00:12:55,499 --> 00:12:58,021
because we got stuff to sell from South Carolina. Maybe.

216
00:12:58,181 --> 00:13:01,463
Sales jobs. Yeah, well, he is a sales guy in

217
00:13:01,483 --> 00:13:03,204
some funny way. Yeah, it's all a sales job. The

218
00:13:03,264 --> 00:13:06,186
thing that makes it odd, though, besides Mitch McConnell being

219
00:13:06,246 --> 00:13:10,009
the obvious one, I'm telling you, I hear something. You

220
00:13:10,029 --> 00:13:13,711
don't hear that, hmm? Okay, well I'm sorry if this...

221
00:13:14,152 --> 00:13:17,714
Yeah, there it is again. It's like... Sounds like my

222
00:13:18,095 --> 00:13:20,816
RODECaster wants a reboot. This is not good. I think

223
00:13:20,836 --> 00:13:26,600
we should probably do that, actually. Hey. What? I think

224
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,722
the road makes a noise before it is. Help me.

225
00:13:33,065 --> 00:13:35,947
Yes. I think we should probably. Yeah. It's, it's about,

226
00:13:35,987 --> 00:13:37,768
it's about to freeze up. I can tell. I know,

227
00:13:38,008 --> 00:13:40,230
I know these things. Yeah. Why? Yeah. You get a

228
00:13:40,290 --> 00:13:42,071
feeling for it. That's what you would. I mean, after

229
00:13:42,191 --> 00:13:45,113
using some gear for years and years, you would get

230
00:13:45,153 --> 00:13:47,995
a, this is probably, I think we should take it

231
00:13:48,015 --> 00:13:50,457
till it freezes up. No, no, no, no. That could

232
00:13:50,517 --> 00:13:54,339
crash everything. Hey, maybe there's some, - Put some petten

233
00:13:54,379 --> 00:13:56,501
in there, some petten. Petten's gonna blow up. - Okay,

234
00:13:56,501 --> 00:14:24,980
stop tape. Test 1-2, edit there. All right. Yeah, I

235
00:14:25,020 --> 00:14:32,545
think that was a wise decision. Well, yeah. It's one

236
00:14:32,565 --> 00:14:34,787
of those wise decisions I make from time to time.

237
00:14:34,827 --> 00:14:36,648
Like, you know, maybe I should... Because I could hear

238
00:14:36,708 --> 00:14:40,030
it going... And then the next moment is going to

239
00:14:40,030 --> 00:14:42,372
be a total freeze. I won't be able to use

240
00:14:42,432 --> 00:14:44,854
the power button. I've got to unplug it, shake it

241
00:14:44,894 --> 00:14:48,716
like an etch-a-sketch. So anyway, what I was going to

242
00:14:48,776 --> 00:14:51,638
say. is that it was weird. We had Mitch McConnell.

243
00:14:51,638 --> 00:14:55,541
We're waiting for something on him. That's all very shady.

244
00:14:56,462 --> 00:14:59,644
Then we have Lindsey Graham just dying. And then the

245
00:14:59,684 --> 00:15:03,947
president is everywhere telling everybody that Iran's out to get

246
00:15:04,007 --> 00:15:05,928
him, to kill him. He's number one on the list.

247
00:15:05,968 --> 00:15:08,790
He hasn't stopped with this. President Trump issuing a new

248
00:15:08,930 --> 00:15:12,552
threat against the Islamic Republic of Iran. He posted this.

249
00:15:12,733 --> 00:15:15,314
He's got a dead man's switch now. On Truth Social

250
00:15:15,394 --> 00:15:19,877
within the last hour, saying a thousand missiles are locked

251
00:15:19,998 --> 00:15:23,260
and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran

252
00:15:23,420 --> 00:15:27,383
with thousands of more to immediately follow. Should the Iranian

253
00:15:27,463 --> 00:15:30,625
government act on its threat? pronounced in many corners of

254
00:15:30,645 --> 00:15:34,307
the globe, to assassinate or attempt to assassinate the sitting

255
00:15:34,347 --> 00:15:37,590
president of the United States of America, in this case,

256
00:15:37,770 --> 00:15:41,032
me. Orders have already been given, and the U.S. military

257
00:15:41,152 --> 00:15:44,334
is ready, willing, and able for a one-year period of

258
00:15:44,434 --> 00:15:49,258
time, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all

259
00:15:49,398 --> 00:15:52,560
of Iran. He ends that post with, Praise be to

260
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:57,123
Allah, signed President Donald J. Trump. The praise be to

261
00:15:57,243 --> 00:16:00,345
Allah is a nice touch. He's been doing that a

262
00:16:00,445 --> 00:16:04,008
lot. Yeah. So then NBC has the story that this

263
00:16:04,148 --> 00:16:06,910
all comes from Israel. Now to the alarming report that

264
00:16:07,110 --> 00:16:10,192
Israel has warned the U.S. that Iran is plotting to

265
00:16:10,252 --> 00:16:13,134
kill President Trump. Kelly O'Donnell is at the White House.

266
00:16:13,194 --> 00:16:14,735
And Kelly, this comes as Iran has... Hold on a

267
00:16:14,755 --> 00:16:15,676
second. Can you stop me for a second? Yeah, of

268
00:16:15,756 --> 00:16:20,619
course. So they have a show during the latter day.

269
00:16:20,699 --> 00:16:22,901
This funeral has gone on for days and days. Yeah.

270
00:16:23,321 --> 00:16:27,063
So the last photos they had of the funerals, there's

271
00:16:27,163 --> 00:16:31,526
people with signs written in English. red signs with white

272
00:16:31,687 --> 00:16:35,249
lettering. and they're carrying him through the streets of Tehran.

273
00:16:35,869 --> 00:16:40,392
Kill President Trump. President Trump must die. And there's not

274
00:16:40,572 --> 00:16:42,274
one or two of these signs. No, there's a whole

275
00:16:42,274 --> 00:16:44,435
bunch. And there's giant banners and all the rest of

276
00:16:44,495 --> 00:16:48,298
it. And so they're saying, gee, this is Israel. This

277
00:16:48,298 --> 00:16:49,779
is Israel. They're the ones that came up with this

278
00:16:49,859 --> 00:16:54,862
idea. There's no proof of this. There's no evidence. No,

279
00:16:54,982 --> 00:16:57,364
but that's... And our intelligence guys say, no, but it

280
00:16:57,424 --> 00:17:02,648
doesn't matter. There's no... What are you thinking? Meanwhile, there's

281
00:17:02,708 --> 00:17:05,470
this signage. I mean, come on. Now to the alarming

282
00:17:05,550 --> 00:17:08,612
report that Israel has warned the U.S. that Iran is

283
00:17:08,812 --> 00:17:11,934
plotting to kill President Trump. Kelly O'Donnell is at the

284
00:17:11,974 --> 00:17:14,856
White House. And Kelly, this comes as Iran has publicly

285
00:17:14,936 --> 00:17:18,178
called for the president's death. And Tom, the White House

286
00:17:18,258 --> 00:17:20,800
is not commenting on that report. And yet the president

287
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,462
said today that Israel came up with nothing. Now, this

288
00:17:24,543 --> 00:17:27,765
all comes as demonstrators in the streets of Iran carried

289
00:17:27,845 --> 00:17:31,687
those signs written in English, notably calling for the assassination

290
00:17:31,727 --> 00:17:35,650
of President Trump. The president said today, I've left instructions

291
00:17:35,790 --> 00:17:39,192
if anything happens to just literally bomb them at levels

292
00:17:39,253 --> 00:17:43,195
they've never seen before. New tonight, senior White House officials

293
00:17:43,235 --> 00:17:47,918
said Iran must issue a public statement Hormuz would remain

294
00:17:48,179 --> 00:17:52,061
open to commercial shipping after Iran violated the ceasefire by

295
00:17:52,382 --> 00:17:56,284
firing at those ships that had been using that thoroughfare.

296
00:17:57,285 --> 00:18:01,127
And I, again, have from secondhand but direct to Iran

297
00:18:01,208 --> 00:18:03,649
that nothing has hit anything. There's no people in the

298
00:18:03,689 --> 00:18:06,271
way. He may be bombing sand, for all we know,

299
00:18:06,751 --> 00:18:11,014
and Karg Island, apparently, but not the pipes. And so

300
00:18:11,094 --> 00:18:17,338
where this goes in podcast land. I read the documents.

301
00:18:17,358 --> 00:18:19,140
We know exactly what's going on. We know who's behind

302
00:18:19,180 --> 00:18:22,702
this. It's obvious. It's Trump. It's going to happen. We

303
00:18:22,782 --> 00:18:24,924
also have top Israelis saying we need a new 9-11.

304
00:18:24,924 --> 00:18:27,806
That's right. Top Israelis are saying we need the new

305
00:18:27,886 --> 00:18:30,728
9-11. It's killing Trump. You're getting really close. It's killing

306
00:18:30,768 --> 00:18:32,629
Trump. That's what it is. To get America back on

307
00:18:32,689 --> 00:18:35,031
board with our wars, well, a new 9-11 would be

308
00:18:35,091 --> 00:18:39,634
President Trump being assassinated and then Iran being blamed, and

309
00:18:39,654 --> 00:18:41,455
then that would probably get the American people behind a

310
00:18:41,835 --> 00:18:44,677
total bombardment, nukes, maybe even a ground invasion, which is

311
00:18:44,697 --> 00:18:49,280
totally insane. last second. So the cadence is what you're

312
00:18:49,340 --> 00:18:53,623
missing. He talks real fast and then slows down, and

313
00:18:53,643 --> 00:18:56,225
then talks real fast and then slows down in a

314
00:18:56,405 --> 00:18:58,907
very distinctive way. The problem is when I get really

315
00:18:58,947 --> 00:19:00,968
excited, then it's really hard for me to slow down

316
00:19:01,048 --> 00:19:04,150
and keep the... What do you think? Now you got

317
00:19:04,170 --> 00:19:06,692
that part nailed. John C. Dvorak, what do you think?

318
00:19:07,092 --> 00:19:09,034
Is this going to be a 9-11 type style event?

319
00:19:09,054 --> 00:19:11,495
The American people can get behind it. This has got

320
00:19:11,515 --> 00:19:13,997
to hurt your voice. Possibly even a ground invasion. What

321
00:19:13,997 --> 00:19:16,279
do you say? What do you say? And so we

322
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,240
have to look at, Israel's standing to gain from a

323
00:19:18,260 --> 00:19:21,202
Trump assassination, especially because he set the table and opened

324
00:19:21,222 --> 00:19:24,124
the door that if I'm killed, it's Iran, and I

325
00:19:24,144 --> 00:19:27,166
want them totally destroyed, which is Israel's ultimate goal. So

326
00:19:27,226 --> 00:19:29,568
he's teed himself up like a golf ball on a

327
00:19:29,668 --> 00:19:32,130
tee or a gun that's had the bullet loaded into

328
00:19:32,170 --> 00:19:39,254
the chamber and cocked it for desperate Likudniks, for people

329
00:19:39,274 --> 00:19:42,136
like Netanyahu, who is convicted, who will go to jail

330
00:19:42,216 --> 00:19:44,738
if this war ever ends, even admits that, wanting this

331
00:19:44,758 --> 00:19:50,342
greater Israel project to continue on. out of desperation to

332
00:19:50,502 --> 00:19:53,404
kill Trump or fund some group to kill Trump. And

333
00:19:53,424 --> 00:19:56,126
then that way they'll have a more pliant, they think,

334
00:19:56,206 --> 00:19:58,928
vice president or somebody, though I don't think they actually

335
00:19:58,988 --> 00:19:59,788
think Vance would do that.

336
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,742
who go along with that. So I think that's really

337
00:20:03,842 --> 00:20:05,543
in the cards. And I think Trump's made a big

338
00:20:05,623 --> 00:20:08,025
mistake saying, if I get killed and they say it's

339
00:20:08,105 --> 00:20:11,607
Iran, you just know it's Iran. I have respect for

340
00:20:11,748 --> 00:20:15,870
Alex. I got respect for this one. And he's very

341
00:20:15,950 --> 00:20:19,273
consistent with these things. I remember I can't do it

342
00:20:19,313 --> 00:20:22,775
anymore. You got to remember, he he predicted the first

343
00:20:22,855 --> 00:20:29,099
9-11. So. But this flows into something that I really

344
00:20:29,159 --> 00:20:30,800
had to go look at because it was starting to

345
00:20:30,901 --> 00:20:33,382
annoy me. Because there's one thing I always like doing

346
00:20:33,442 --> 00:20:36,084
is reading the NDAA because there's fun stuff in there.

347
00:20:36,104 --> 00:20:40,287
You know, during Obama, the National Defense Authorization Act, we

348
00:20:40,387 --> 00:20:44,710
had folded in there was the Smith-Munt. What was the

349
00:20:44,870 --> 00:20:48,472
exact term? Was it the Reform Act or the Smith-Mogg?

350
00:20:48,513 --> 00:20:50,654
Yeah, the Smith Act reformed something like that. It was

351
00:20:50,654 --> 00:20:53,996
just a repealing of the Act. Yeah, and so it

352
00:20:54,016 --> 00:20:59,040
became okay to... To propagandize the American people. Yeah. So

353
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,643
now there's this new thing in the National Defense Authorization

354
00:21:03,783 --> 00:21:09,127
Act. And then there's also the Defense National Act. And

355
00:21:09,247 --> 00:21:15,011
he, Alex, and his buddy there, they had a conversation

356
00:21:15,071 --> 00:21:17,012
about it. I'm like, you know, you're taking it a

357
00:21:17,092 --> 00:21:19,814
little bit too far. You mentioned Section 224, which not

358
00:21:19,834 --> 00:21:21,915
many people are talking about or speaking about. Yeah, we'll

359
00:21:21,955 --> 00:21:26,879
talk about it. To Anika Sparrow about it yesterday. Kasparian

360
00:21:27,619 --> 00:21:29,941
and Alex Jones are on the same page. You got

361
00:21:29,961 --> 00:21:32,823
to be careful. You got to be careful. Something's wrong.

362
00:21:32,823 --> 00:21:36,865
Something's up. Panic Kasparian about it yesterday. Something's wrong. Man,

363
00:21:37,146 --> 00:21:39,988
it seems like this is going to pass. That's freaking

364
00:21:40,068 --> 00:21:42,990
wild. That is just wild. This is just for the

365
00:21:43,050 --> 00:21:44,771
audience. This is, oh, you can explain it better than

366
00:21:44,791 --> 00:21:47,453
I. But essentially merges the U.S. military and the IDF.

367
00:21:47,953 --> 00:21:51,355
And also Senator Cotton's... Okay, that's... So this is the

368
00:21:51,676 --> 00:21:55,658
talking point that all the podcasters are on. This merges

369
00:21:56,019 --> 00:21:59,581
the American military with the IDF. It merges them. Complete

370
00:21:59,641 --> 00:22:02,043
melding. There will be no difference between the two. But

371
00:22:02,083 --> 00:22:06,406
essentially merges the U.S. military and the IDF. And also

372
00:22:06,466 --> 00:22:09,668
Senator Cotton's trying to merge the CIA and Mossad and

373
00:22:09,688 --> 00:22:13,410
make it irreversible. That's gonna work. Oh, yeah. Well, this

374
00:22:14,371 --> 00:22:16,873
is good. Just listen to this. Yeah, they're gonna massage

375
00:22:16,953 --> 00:22:20,275
in the CIA. That's a good one. The CIA and

376
00:22:20,315 --> 00:22:24,678
massage and make it irreversible. But that is so freaking

377
00:22:24,718 --> 00:22:28,501
wild. Yeah, when this first came out five weeks ago,

378
00:22:28,601 --> 00:22:30,302
first they said it's not true. Well, you can go

379
00:22:30,382 --> 00:22:35,926
read 224 in the Defense Authorization Act 2027 that's now

380
00:22:36,046 --> 00:22:37,707
passed out all the committees and is in the full

381
00:22:37,747 --> 00:22:39,508
House, about to go to the full Senate. And then

382
00:22:39,528 --> 00:22:42,330
you have the full new intelligence funding bill that doesn't

383
00:22:42,370 --> 00:22:46,233
just merge Mossad with the CIA. It's all U.S. intelligence,

384
00:22:46,373 --> 00:22:50,916
live time, synchronicity. They use words like live time, synchronicity,

385
00:22:52,377 --> 00:22:56,500
marriage. No, no. The word marriage is not in there.

386
00:22:56,780 --> 00:23:01,723
Bind, the live time is used. There's a whole bunch

387
00:23:01,763 --> 00:23:04,685
of terms. And it says from research and development down

388
00:23:04,745 --> 00:23:09,789
to weapons deployment, avionics, guidance, intelligence, all of it in

389
00:23:09,929 --> 00:23:17,474
live time. Fusion, integration, marriage. Yeah. So this has gotten

390
00:23:17,554 --> 00:23:20,456
so out of control on the podcast that even Kim

391
00:23:20,676 --> 00:23:23,538
Iverson, who I like, we don't really play anything from

392
00:23:23,618 --> 00:23:27,701
Kim Iverson because he's kind of monotonous. But this is

393
00:23:27,761 --> 00:23:31,664
how she interpreted it. Unfortunately, the amendment to halt the

394
00:23:31,924 --> 00:23:35,606
merger of the U.S. and Israeli militaries together has failed.

395
00:23:35,626 --> 00:23:39,229
They have shoved this into the National Defense Act and

396
00:23:39,609 --> 00:23:42,991
it will pass. This whole idea, which Netanyahu even says

397
00:23:43,112 --> 00:23:45,393
was his idea, this was his plan, this did not

398
00:23:45,473 --> 00:23:47,595
come from our Congress members. He actually put it forward.

399
00:23:47,615 --> 00:23:49,676
They said, okay, we'll do whatever you want, our dear

400
00:23:49,736 --> 00:23:51,938
leader Bibi. That's exactly how it went. We'll do whatever

401
00:23:51,998 --> 00:23:54,439
you want, our dear leader Bibi. See, this is the

402
00:23:54,479 --> 00:23:58,362
stuff that drives me nuts. You are giving podcasting a

403
00:23:58,402 --> 00:24:00,684
bad name. From our Congress members, he actually put it

404
00:24:00,724 --> 00:24:02,845
forward. They said, okay, we'll do whatever you want, our

405
00:24:02,905 --> 00:24:05,307
dear leader Bibi. And they put it into this bill.

406
00:24:05,467 --> 00:24:09,209
The goal of this, according to Netanyahu, is to end

407
00:24:09,510 --> 00:24:11,891
U.S. aid to Israel. Now you might think, oh, that's

408
00:24:11,931 --> 00:24:13,552
a great thing. We do want to end U.S. aid

409
00:24:13,652 --> 00:24:16,494
to Israel. Right. The workaround is to no longer need

410
00:24:16,795 --> 00:24:19,316
aid from the United States military because you will just

411
00:24:19,376 --> 00:24:23,179
become the United States military. Netanyahu said, rather than being

412
00:24:23,279 --> 00:24:26,121
dependent on the U.S. military, we become partners. We become

413
00:24:26,181 --> 00:24:30,104
partners. everything. Here's the article from Responsible Statecraft saying Congress

414
00:24:30,124 --> 00:24:33,386
has refused to even allow a full House vote on

415
00:24:33,446 --> 00:24:35,988
a provision that would pave the way for an unprecedented

416
00:24:36,108 --> 00:24:40,110
integration of the U.S. and Israeli military-industrial complexes. After no

417
00:24:40,270 --> 00:24:43,653
debate on Monday, the Rules Committee chose to reject a

418
00:24:43,773 --> 00:24:47,696
bipartisan amendment introduced by Reps Ro Khanna and Thomas Massey

419
00:24:47,856 --> 00:24:51,158
that would have stripped the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation

420
00:24:51,238 --> 00:24:54,180
Initiative from the bill. This provision they wanted to squelch

421
00:24:54,220 --> 00:24:57,762
creates an executive agent within the Department a defense whose

422
00:24:57,903 --> 00:25:01,525
sole responsibility is furthering U.S. and Israeli military tech integration

423
00:25:01,585 --> 00:25:04,507
across nearly every facet of the defense process. It even

424
00:25:04,607 --> 00:25:07,549
specifically says in this provision that we will source and

425
00:25:07,629 --> 00:25:09,911
look for as much Israeli tech to integrate into our

426
00:25:09,931 --> 00:25:12,352
military as possible. That is a bad idea. That's the

427
00:25:12,372 --> 00:25:14,054
worst thing I've ever heard of. So if you don't

428
00:25:14,114 --> 00:25:16,795
want that, call your congressman, call your senator, tell them

429
00:25:16,976 --> 00:25:19,757
you absolutely want them to oppose that bill unless they

430
00:25:19,958 --> 00:25:22,479
strike that from it, that you will not live in

431
00:25:22,559 --> 00:25:25,281
a nation that is beholden to another foreign nation. I

432
00:25:25,321 --> 00:25:27,403
was going to say something much more grotesque. but whatever.

433
00:25:27,423 --> 00:25:29,304
I mean, it's just so obvious. Israel is taking over.

434
00:25:29,344 --> 00:25:33,147
We're not a sovereign country anymore. Okay, okay. No. So

435
00:25:33,407 --> 00:25:36,069
let's everybody just calm down for a moment. And I'll

436
00:25:36,109 --> 00:25:39,851
read a little bit of what section 224 says. But

437
00:25:39,911 --> 00:25:43,253
do we, is this? unique is this the most unique

438
00:25:43,334 --> 00:25:46,536
thing we've ever had in in our military or in

439
00:25:46,616 --> 00:25:51,819
our intelligence Uh, no. We have the exact same agreements

440
00:25:51,919 --> 00:25:59,404
with Five Eyes. With Japan, with Australia, UK, the AUKUS,

441
00:26:00,405 --> 00:26:04,288
this is not new. And this executive agent, which is

442
00:26:04,368 --> 00:26:08,491
what the entire section starts off with. It will be

443
00:26:08,571 --> 00:26:13,514
responsible for synchronizing cooperative efforts between the U.S. and Israel

444
00:26:13,594 --> 00:26:19,118
to expand and accelerate bilateral defense technology research, development, testing,

445
00:26:19,218 --> 00:26:26,283
evaluation, integration, and industrial cooperation, which we already do. Yeah,

446
00:26:26,363 --> 00:26:29,285
we want to steal their stuff. Of course, bring it

447
00:26:29,525 --> 00:26:32,907
in so we can take a look at it. This

448
00:26:33,007 --> 00:26:35,249
is not like, but the way this is being sold,

449
00:26:35,909 --> 00:26:38,071
we're not a sovereign nation. It's all over now. Israel

450
00:26:38,091 --> 00:26:43,254
controls us. No, I personally find Five Eyes much more

451
00:26:43,394 --> 00:26:47,037
offensive. How about NATO? Do you think there's any shit?

452
00:26:47,097 --> 00:26:51,980
We're about to license, literally build. our Patriot missiles with

453
00:26:52,020 --> 00:26:55,963
that little actor dancer boy in Ukraine. Where's the offense?

454
00:26:57,804 --> 00:27:00,146
Come on. I know. Well, luckily, and of course the

455
00:27:00,186 --> 00:27:03,848
thing is, it has to be a subsidiary. Yes. Yeah.

456
00:27:03,948 --> 00:27:06,810
As you pointed out before. Yeah. Actually, I got a,

457
00:27:07,371 --> 00:27:13,575
where was that? Uh... In fact, what we're doing is

458
00:27:13,655 --> 00:27:17,238
setting up shop in Ukraine. Here it is. It's what

459
00:27:17,358 --> 00:27:19,819
we're doing. This way you can't complain that we're not

460
00:27:19,879 --> 00:27:22,941
giving them enough. Make them yourself. Donald Trump made it

461
00:27:23,021 --> 00:27:26,023
sound easy when he promised Vladimir Zelensky at this week's

462
00:27:26,104 --> 00:27:29,286
NATO summit that Ukraine could make its own Patriot air

463
00:27:29,346 --> 00:27:34,689
defense systems. The reality is much more complicated. Case in

464
00:27:34,829 --> 00:27:38,492
point, the U.S. granted Germany a similar license four years

465
00:27:38,572 --> 00:27:42,495
ago, and Berlin isn't expected to produce a single Patriot

466
00:27:42,575 --> 00:27:46,217
system until sometime next year. So potentially this becomes a

467
00:27:46,297 --> 00:27:49,540
win-win, but the devil is in the detail here because

468
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,902
the hard work will be getting these production lines established,

469
00:27:53,322 --> 00:27:56,624
getting the people trained to manufacture the weapons, testing the

470
00:27:56,644 --> 00:28:01,087
weapons, getting them deployed, and spinning all of that capacity

471
00:28:01,268 --> 00:28:05,691
up. so that it can support Ukrainian air defense. As

472
00:28:05,771 --> 00:28:09,173
the case with Germany shows, the process of finding suppliers

473
00:28:09,273 --> 00:28:13,496
for parts and getting manufacturing online takes time. And experts

474
00:28:13,516 --> 00:28:16,918
say with daily attacks from Moscow, a license to make

475
00:28:17,018 --> 00:28:20,220
Patriots will do little to meet Kiev's immediate needs on

476
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:30,167
the battlefield. Exactly. Just everybody calm down. It's unbelievable. It's

477
00:28:30,307 --> 00:28:33,710
all about Israel. Israel. Israel. Israel's going to get it.

478
00:28:34,390 --> 00:28:39,293
Okay. All right. You know, it's okay because people will

479
00:28:39,313 --> 00:28:42,396
come around eventually, just like they're coming around now on

480
00:28:42,456 --> 00:28:45,738
the Candace Owens thing. Man, she signed her own death

481
00:28:45,798 --> 00:28:48,340
warrant by going on Sean Ryan for four hours and

482
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,943
talking all that nonsense. I mean, this preliminary trial is,

483
00:28:52,983 --> 00:28:56,565
or preliminary hearing is really showing that there's a, you

484
00:28:56,825 --> 00:29:01,689
know, there was no autopsy report. Yeah, there was. It

485
00:29:01,749 --> 00:29:07,072
was under seal for this very moment. Ugh. My goodness.

486
00:29:09,774 --> 00:29:13,076
Yeah. Well, it's all right. Took him up with something

487
00:29:13,136 --> 00:29:16,019
new. Even, I didn't, oh man, I should have clipped

488
00:29:16,079 --> 00:29:18,380
it, but your boy there, who's Nick, what's his name?

489
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,822
Nick Fuentes. Yeah, Nick. Yeah, Nick had a whole thing

490
00:29:21,883 --> 00:29:24,945
today. It's like, the reason why everyone's about his anti-Israel

491
00:29:24,965 --> 00:29:27,106
is because you make a lot of money. You get

492
00:29:27,106 --> 00:29:28,487
a whole bunch of clicks. You get a lot of

493
00:29:28,527 --> 00:29:32,250
followers. He goes so far as to say, I think

494
00:29:32,270 --> 00:29:34,711
some foreign countries are actually paying these people to say

495
00:29:34,791 --> 00:29:39,494
that stuff. Yeah, the internet is a mess. Gee, didn't

496
00:29:39,514 --> 00:29:43,237
that happen to one of our most famous podcasters some

497
00:29:43,257 --> 00:29:45,819
time ago? Yeah, I think so. It's just a thought.

498
00:29:46,079 --> 00:29:48,320
Tim Pool was getting paid by the Russians, was it?

499
00:29:48,541 --> 00:29:51,202
Well, he wasn't really getting paid by the Russians. That

500
00:29:51,283 --> 00:29:54,365
was the Canadian girl who was getting paid by the

501
00:29:54,385 --> 00:29:58,087
Russians, and Tim Pool just thought he was good. Look

502
00:29:58,107 --> 00:29:59,989
at all this money I'm making, I'm that good.

503
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,403
I'm opening a skate park. And then the money dried

504
00:30:05,503 --> 00:30:08,785
up and, hey, it wasn't that good. Well, he didn't

505
00:30:08,826 --> 00:30:10,587
get the skate park. No, I think he did. He's

506
00:30:10,607 --> 00:30:13,349
still making money. Yeah, I don't know how much, though.

507
00:30:14,990 --> 00:30:18,952
Apparently if you have like a million views on YouTube

508
00:30:18,972 --> 00:30:21,314
you can make like $20,000 off of that in a

509
00:30:21,374 --> 00:30:24,756
month. Seems like a lot. That's not my understanding. No,

510
00:30:24,936 --> 00:30:28,359
that's what people are saying. I heard it's $1,200 per

511
00:30:28,459 --> 00:30:33,702
million. Really? You get $1,200 if you get a million

512
00:30:33,722 --> 00:30:36,344
views. Oh, well, then that's not worth it. Unless you're

513
00:30:36,364 --> 00:30:38,826
being paid by somebody else. Oh, there it is. That's

514
00:30:38,846 --> 00:30:41,448
where the money is. That's what we've got to try

515
00:30:41,528 --> 00:30:46,351
to get to, yes. So, you know, the influencer. Yeah.

516
00:30:47,352 --> 00:30:52,615
We're influencing nothing. Yeah, we are. We're influencing. We're not

517
00:30:53,016 --> 00:30:57,619
influencing anything that makes us money. Oh, man. Yeah. Christina's

518
00:30:57,679 --> 00:31:00,421
making bank, though. She's doing the influencer thing with this

519
00:31:00,501 --> 00:31:03,483
baby. Can't get the baby to come out before we

520
00:31:03,563 --> 00:31:07,345
leave. But, you know, she's like, oh, she's got baby

521
00:31:08,086 --> 00:31:11,348
carriages and play pens and all kinds of stuff going

522
00:31:11,468 --> 00:31:14,770
on. Oh, good. She's got... Yes. Yeah, she's learned something

523
00:31:14,810 --> 00:31:19,113
from you. Yes, I encourage this, of course. So let's

524
00:31:19,233 --> 00:31:21,795
talk about the Air Force One scandal, which the BBC

525
00:31:21,975 --> 00:31:25,878
went on and on about. Why has the Trump administration

526
00:31:26,138 --> 00:31:29,661
ordered several journalists from the New York Times to give

527
00:31:29,741 --> 00:31:33,263
testimony under oath over their coverage of the new Air

528
00:31:33,343 --> 00:31:36,946
Force One? Four journalists from the paper have been subpoenaed

529
00:31:37,026 --> 00:31:40,108
to appear before a grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday

530
00:31:40,168 --> 00:31:42,690
next week. It's a process that will decide if there's

531
00:31:42,730 --> 00:31:45,952
enough evidence to charge a person with a crime. So

532
00:31:46,092 --> 00:31:48,313
far, there are few details as to what the main

533
00:31:48,393 --> 00:31:51,415
objections are to the New York Times reporting. But in

534
00:31:51,496 --> 00:31:54,397
a statement to the BBC, the Justice Department said it's

535
00:31:54,478 --> 00:31:59,961
investigating illegal leaks of national security information. Well, last week,

536
00:32:00,061 --> 00:32:02,983
the New York Times wrote articles about the new Air

537
00:32:03,023 --> 00:32:07,306
Force One plane, to President Trump personally by the Qatari

538
00:32:07,386 --> 00:32:11,129
government last year. Mr Trump used it to arrive at

539
00:32:11,149 --> 00:32:14,091
the NATO summit in Turkey just this week, but boarded

540
00:32:14,171 --> 00:32:17,593
the old Air Force One home. And that raised questions

541
00:32:17,773 --> 00:32:20,836
as to why. Well, the Times quoted people it said

542
00:32:20,976 --> 00:32:24,638
were briefed on the new plane's capabilities, who spoke on

543
00:32:24,738 --> 00:32:28,341
condition of anonymity. The Times reported that they suggested the

544
00:32:28,441 --> 00:32:31,182
new plane doesn't have all the features of the old

545
00:32:31,283 --> 00:32:35,526
plane, and that it lacks defensive countermeasures, of the previous

546
00:32:35,646 --> 00:32:38,668
model. We obviously asked the New York Times for an

547
00:32:38,708 --> 00:32:42,630
interview today. They sent us this statement. "The appearance of

548
00:32:42,710 --> 00:32:46,533
federal law enforcement agents on the doorstep of news reporters

549
00:32:46,893 --> 00:32:50,215
should shock the conscience of any American who believes in..."

550
00:32:50,256 --> 00:32:51,917
Wait a minute, they talked to the New York Times

551
00:32:51,977 --> 00:32:54,959
and this Brit is the guy who answered? Where's my

552
00:32:55,059 --> 00:32:58,261
New Yorker talking? Or is this, they're just reading this?

553
00:32:58,321 --> 00:33:00,603
I think this whole thing is rich coming from the

554
00:33:00,703 --> 00:33:05,706
British. The Constitution and the press freedom it protects. Our

555
00:33:05,786 --> 00:33:09,489
journalists report the facts and advance the American public's right

556
00:33:09,569 --> 00:33:13,171
to know how their government is operating and their taxpayer

557
00:33:13,231 --> 00:33:16,794
dollars are being used. This brazen act should be seen

558
00:33:16,874 --> 00:33:19,996
as nothing more than an attempt to prevent the public

559
00:33:20,376 --> 00:33:23,698
from knowing what is happening in their country by intimidating

560
00:33:23,758 --> 00:33:28,141
journalists from doing their jobs. But that's not what they're

561
00:33:28,241 --> 00:33:31,564
after. They just want to know who leaked it from

562
00:33:31,684 --> 00:33:33,765
the administration side. Yeah, I think it was me. They

563
00:33:33,845 --> 00:33:38,108
said that. But what's funny about this is during this,

564
00:33:38,348 --> 00:33:42,391
this is a three-part clip. Yeah. There's never one mention

565
00:33:42,531 --> 00:33:46,774
of Obama. who was the worst at this. Yeah, he

566
00:33:46,894 --> 00:33:50,116
was. That Rosen guy was thrown in jail. Thrown in

567
00:33:50,196 --> 00:33:53,819
jail, yeah. Thrown in jail. There was all this, Obama

568
00:33:53,899 --> 00:33:57,361
was the worst for this. And there's never a mention,

569
00:33:57,782 --> 00:34:01,504
Nari, let's say, Nari a mention. Nare a mention, nare

570
00:34:01,544 --> 00:34:06,608
a mention. Of Barack, but we continue. Well, let's get

571
00:34:06,648 --> 00:34:09,309
some more details with Daniel Lipman. He's a White House

572
00:34:09,369 --> 00:34:13,492
and Washington reporter with Politico in the U.S. Capitol. Daniel,

573
00:34:13,572 --> 00:34:16,234
thanks for joining us. First of all, the president has

574
00:34:16,254 --> 00:34:19,877
made absolutely no secret that he's very impressed with this

575
00:34:19,997 --> 00:34:23,719
new plane supplied by Qatar. He likes to point out

576
00:34:23,979 --> 00:34:26,881
how modern it is and its luxurious fittings and so

577
00:34:27,001 --> 00:34:30,644
on. Some did question the wisdom of accepting a plane

578
00:34:30,704 --> 00:34:33,866
from a foreign state in the first place, though, and

579
00:34:33,946 --> 00:34:37,589
also the security upgrade will have been very expensive, surely.

580
00:34:37,949 --> 00:34:44,233
Yeah, this was going to be a year-long plus process

581
00:34:44,653 --> 00:34:50,738
retrofit with this plane in terms of anti-missile technology, other

582
00:34:51,058 --> 00:34:56,622
features to prevent against electromagnetic pulse attack in case of

583
00:34:57,282 --> 00:35:02,165
a nuclear strike on this plane. And so it raised

584
00:35:02,185 --> 00:35:06,889
a lot of eyebrows when he flew back from the

585
00:35:06,949 --> 00:35:11,912
NATO summit in Turkey with the old plane, especially after

586
00:35:11,952 --> 00:35:16,435
Iran and the U.S. resumed hostility. And so I think

587
00:35:16,475 --> 00:35:20,358
that this is an embarrassing incident for Trump, and that's

588
00:35:20,418 --> 00:35:23,720
why the Justice Department is taking this as seriously to

589
00:35:23,780 --> 00:35:26,762
try to find out the Times' sources. Now, the way

590
00:35:26,862 --> 00:35:31,866
I heard it... is that It really was a last,

591
00:35:32,126 --> 00:35:35,608
like a total last minute switch, which Trump totally downplayed

592
00:35:35,688 --> 00:35:38,450
and lied about, which was kind of dumb. Like, oh

593
00:35:38,450 --> 00:35:41,292
yeah, the troops want to see it. And I think

594
00:35:41,352 --> 00:35:43,394
they might have been trying to smoke somebody out in

595
00:35:43,474 --> 00:35:49,077
the first place. Know what I mean? Yeah, maybe. That's

596
00:35:49,097 --> 00:35:50,699
what it feels like to me. Sounds reasonable. I mean,

597
00:35:50,899 --> 00:35:54,281
the whole thing was, yeah, he didn't handle it well.

598
00:35:54,841 --> 00:35:58,964
No, he handled it wrong. It was completely wrong. I

599
00:35:59,024 --> 00:36:00,805
mean, when he was on the plane with the reporters

600
00:36:00,905 --> 00:36:03,647
after they were moaning about having to close their windows,

601
00:36:05,569 --> 00:36:08,571
he said, well, you know, it's dangerous flying around with

602
00:36:08,611 --> 00:36:11,153
me. You know, you're taking your life in your own

603
00:36:11,273 --> 00:36:13,434
hands and flying around with me. They get me, they

604
00:36:13,474 --> 00:36:18,978
get you. Yeah, you're all dead. Yeah. Part three. And

605
00:36:19,018 --> 00:36:21,239
can you expand a little bit more on the Times

606
00:36:21,279 --> 00:36:23,721
reporting? Because they do go into some detail as to

607
00:36:23,781 --> 00:36:26,283
what they think might be lacking on this plane. Yeah,

608
00:36:26,303 --> 00:36:30,526
so it's that missile capability likely. We don't know all

609
00:36:30,546 --> 00:36:33,708
the details yet, and they're keeping that close to the

610
00:36:33,748 --> 00:36:39,112
vest. An FBI senior official told the Times before their

611
00:36:39,152 --> 00:36:45,016
publication to urge them not to do this article, in

612
00:36:45,136 --> 00:36:52,561
cases before where there's security-related stories that major publications want

613
00:36:52,581 --> 00:36:56,623
to do, and the government wants to not have that

614
00:36:56,684 --> 00:37:00,146
in the public eye. But it is pretty chilling because

615
00:37:00,186 --> 00:37:03,788
you don't want to have sources fear that they're going

616
00:37:03,828 --> 00:37:06,650
to be sent to jail because of what they told

617
00:37:06,710 --> 00:37:11,313
The Times. And even President Trump alluded to how it

618
00:37:11,434 --> 00:37:13,295
was almost like a little bit of a risky flight

619
00:37:14,916 --> 00:37:19,859
Turkey is right next to Iran and every passenger on

620
00:37:19,919 --> 00:37:23,882
that plane had to pull up their window shades because

621
00:37:24,503 --> 00:37:28,185
of security precautions. And so there's a reason why a

622
00:37:28,865 --> 00:37:32,808
lot of people were suspicious of Qatar giving this plane

623
00:37:32,868 --> 00:37:34,449
to the U.S. in the first place. This guy is

624
00:37:34,609 --> 00:37:37,852
breathless and he's kind of boring now. Well, that's right.

625
00:37:37,932 --> 00:37:40,934
Mr. Trump has been talking about his own security this

626
00:37:41,034 --> 00:37:46,397
week, hasn't he? got reason to be fearful because only

627
00:37:46,477 --> 00:37:49,680
today we had more threats coming from the Iranian regime.

628
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,082
Yeah, and especially not saying that Qatar did anything to

629
00:37:53,162 --> 00:37:55,964
this plane. It seemed like this is why we have

630
00:37:56,024 --> 00:38:00,807
experts to look at it. But there is a lot

631
00:38:00,947 --> 00:38:06,111
of concern among the security community in this country that

632
00:38:06,911 --> 00:38:09,353
we shouldn't take a plane from a country like Qatar,

633
00:38:09,433 --> 00:38:17,779
which historically had pretty strong links to Iran. Yeah, maybe.

634
00:38:21,141 --> 00:38:24,363
Well, that plane is kind of laughable. I had, let

635
00:38:24,403 --> 00:38:26,485
me see, I have two clips about this from Global

636
00:38:26,585 --> 00:38:30,347
News. Following funeral processions in two other cities, Iran buried

637
00:38:30,387 --> 00:38:32,509
the late Supreme Leader in the town where he was

638
00:38:32,589 --> 00:38:34,230
born. Wait, that's not, that's the one. Here it is,

639
00:38:34,250 --> 00:38:36,732
this is the one. Now, the potential plot appears to

640
00:38:36,772 --> 00:38:39,153
have led to a plane change for the President. The

641
00:38:39,313 --> 00:38:42,075
trip to the NATO summit in Turkey was on the

642
00:38:42,135 --> 00:38:46,098
new controversial plane gifted by Qatar. To leave, Trump took

643
00:38:46,158 --> 00:38:48,840
the old Air Force One. The White House says because

644
00:38:48,900 --> 00:38:52,843
of the threats, it was using distractions. and misdirection. But

645
00:38:52,903 --> 00:38:55,565
there are reports the new aircraft doesn't have the same

646
00:38:55,645 --> 00:38:59,667
defensive countermeasures to protect it from attack. This is an

647
00:38:59,767 --> 00:39:04,451
aircraft that was spec'd out and prioritized for luxury, not

648
00:39:04,531 --> 00:39:08,493
safety. Trump actually changed back to the new plane for

649
00:39:08,553 --> 00:39:11,315
the last leg home. Once back in the U.S., he

650
00:39:11,435 --> 00:39:14,738
told the New York Post he's left instructions should Iran

651
00:39:14,958 --> 00:39:18,400
ever be successful. If anything happens to him, he says,

652
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,483
he should be bombed at, quote, levels that they've never

653
00:39:22,563 --> 00:39:27,246
seen before. Yeah. So, I mean, in conclusion, what do

654
00:39:27,306 --> 00:39:29,087
we really think this is? There was a real threat

655
00:39:29,768 --> 00:39:32,450
or they just wanted to smoke somebody out. It seems

656
00:39:32,510 --> 00:39:39,955
like one or the other. Could be both. Yeah. Whatever

657
00:39:39,995 --> 00:39:42,677
the case, he took the right plane and yeah, okay,

658
00:39:42,677 --> 00:39:45,158
he's fine. They made a big fuss about it, but

659
00:39:45,218 --> 00:39:48,801
then... Well, the fuss is because the... Because the journalists

660
00:39:48,861 --> 00:39:51,082
feel that they need to protect their sources, which they

661
00:39:51,122 --> 00:39:54,365
do anyway. And they should. Yeah. I agree with that.

662
00:39:54,565 --> 00:39:56,366
Yeah. But at the same time, they shouldn't have a

663
00:39:56,406 --> 00:39:59,388
bunch of leakers. If you got leakers, whose fault is

664
00:39:59,428 --> 00:39:59,988
not the journalist?

665
00:40:00,140 --> 00:40:04,142
fault. No, but that's why they just want to know

666
00:40:04,282 --> 00:40:08,365
who was it. Tell us. They can't make him tell

667
00:40:08,806 --> 00:40:11,768
them, can they? Besides doing what Obama did, which was

668
00:40:11,807 --> 00:40:15,010
throw him in jail. Well, most of these guys are

669
00:40:15,010 --> 00:40:16,771
in the New York Times. Well, the New York Times

670
00:40:16,791 --> 00:40:19,733
has got a good legal team for this. And they

671
00:40:19,773 --> 00:40:22,155
had one of the guys who did the Rosen case,

672
00:40:22,255 --> 00:40:26,317
I think, on one of the shows yakking about it.

673
00:40:27,058 --> 00:40:30,640
And no, they can't do anything. And it's a bad

674
00:40:30,820 --> 00:40:33,542
look. It's a very bad look. The whole thing, everything's

675
00:40:33,582 --> 00:40:41,668
bad. Everything's bad. No one's looking good. at all. I

676
00:40:41,748 --> 00:40:43,849
think we should, here's what I think we should do.

677
00:40:46,251 --> 00:40:47,752
I think we should be doing a three by three

678
00:40:47,892 --> 00:40:50,434
because you brought them. Okay, well this I'm going to

679
00:40:50,514 --> 00:40:53,336
talk about this. Hold on. Before we do anything. And

680
00:40:53,396 --> 00:40:57,959
now it's time for three by three. Experiment by JCD.

681
00:40:59,020 --> 00:41:05,464
Comparing stories from ABC, CBS, and NBC. The never-ending... Ah,

682
00:41:05,584 --> 00:41:08,146
that's right. This is the top three news networks, the

683
00:41:08,146 --> 00:41:11,188
top three news programs, and we listen to what they

684
00:41:11,288 --> 00:41:13,710
say, how they say it. Is it exactly the same?

685
00:41:13,730 --> 00:41:15,371
Do they have the same story? Do they have Nat

686
00:41:15,471 --> 00:41:19,434
Pops? What do we have today? Yeah, well, this is

687
00:41:19,534 --> 00:41:23,296
a return to the opens. Oh, the opens, okay. And

688
00:41:23,356 --> 00:41:26,058
the reason is because I wanted to discuss a note

689
00:41:26,138 --> 00:41:31,282
someone sent us, an old hack. A guy who used

690
00:41:31,322 --> 00:41:37,646
to be in the business. Baronet Baylor, actually, a.k.a. Sir

691
00:41:37,726 --> 00:41:42,710
Camera Chris, who sent his long memo on... on a

692
00:41:43,030 --> 00:41:46,472
technique they use on these shows and is exemplified by

693
00:41:46,512 --> 00:41:50,255
these three openers. Now the openers I think we should

694
00:41:50,315 --> 00:41:53,317
do them in reverse order. In other words, the most

695
00:41:53,537 --> 00:41:59,801
ineffective... And with the lowest ratings is CBS. Wait, CBS

696
00:41:59,801 --> 00:42:04,264
has... Then comes NBC. CBS has the lowest ratings? Of

697
00:42:04,344 --> 00:42:08,567
the news shows, yeah. Really? I thought Barry Weiss was

698
00:42:08,907 --> 00:42:13,691
going to fix everything. After I'm done, I'm now convinced

699
00:42:13,751 --> 00:42:18,274
Barry Weiss is incompetent. She doesn't know anything about broadcasting.

700
00:42:19,014 --> 00:42:25,259
No, she's a sub-stacker. Yeah, she's a writer type. Yeah,

701
00:42:25,278 --> 00:42:27,720
she's a sub-stack. And she's never worked in the business.

702
00:42:27,740 --> 00:42:29,742
She's never been on it. She's not like a, she

703
00:42:29,802 --> 00:42:32,403
hasn't even been, you know, sitting in the panels or

704
00:42:32,483 --> 00:42:34,985
anything that I know of. I never saw her. Have

705
00:42:34,985 --> 00:42:39,208
you ever seen her? I've seen her being interviewed. I

706
00:42:39,288 --> 00:42:41,530
saw her making a fool of herself on Rogan once.

707
00:42:42,330 --> 00:42:45,092
So, no, I don't think she, she's not a broadcast

708
00:42:45,192 --> 00:42:49,255
person. You're right. She's a writer. And that's the worst

709
00:42:49,355 --> 00:42:52,857
kind to put on broadcast television. No, absolutely the worst

710
00:42:52,937 --> 00:42:57,941
because you, your idea of what. What works in writing

711
00:42:58,001 --> 00:43:00,783
does not work in broadcasting. So let's start with the

712
00:43:00,843 --> 00:43:03,765
worst of the group. This is the opener, the week

713
00:43:04,005 --> 00:43:07,027
opener for CB. This is July 10th. This is Friday

714
00:43:07,107 --> 00:43:11,030
shows. They're all the same from the same day. And

715
00:43:11,090 --> 00:43:13,391
we go, we start with CBS, which is a minute.

716
00:43:14,212 --> 00:43:17,174
They actually stretched it out. I'm surprised it's this long.

717
00:43:17,394 --> 00:43:19,275
It's the shortest. It's a minute. It's the shortest of

718
00:43:19,275 --> 00:43:22,077
them. It's the shortest, for sure. Everything they do is

719
00:43:22,137 --> 00:43:25,640
wrong. Their opener sucks. Let's listen. Good evening. I'm Major

720
00:43:25,700 --> 00:43:29,963
Garrett, in for Tony DeCobel. Tonight, flood emergency in the

721
00:43:30,063 --> 00:43:33,845
heartland. The record surge of water devastating parts of Missouri.

722
00:43:34,186 --> 00:43:37,828
Nearly a hundred water rescues reported, many of them campers,

723
00:43:38,308 --> 00:43:41,390
on the swollen banks of the Black River. The powerful

724
00:43:41,470 --> 00:43:46,254
storms threatening nearly 100 million Americans, Rob Marciano tracking it

725
00:43:46,434 --> 00:43:50,777
all. Wrong target. ICE officials now saying the Mexican migrant

726
00:43:50,777 --> 00:43:53,499
who was shot and killed during a traffic stop in

727
00:43:53,619 --> 00:43:56,861
Houston was not the person they were looking for. The

728
00:43:56,921 --> 00:44:04,106
new details. Flyover controversy this July 4th off the coast

729
00:44:04,146 --> 00:44:08,729
of South Carolina, triggering suspensions for the pilots. Now, the

730
00:44:08,829 --> 00:44:13,592
Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has weighed in. Royal reunion.

731
00:44:13,752 --> 00:44:16,915
Archie and Lilibet spend time with their grandparents. And who

732
00:44:17,075 --> 00:44:22,158
else paid the king and queen a visit? Plus, Steve

733
00:44:22,198 --> 00:44:25,200
Hartman on the road. How a lonely little boy started

734
00:44:25,220 --> 00:44:29,023
a wave of kindness. I love you. I love you

735
00:44:29,043 --> 00:44:34,467
too. From CBS News headquarters in New York, this is

736
00:44:34,467 --> 00:44:39,090
the CBS Evening News with Tony DiCoppo. Okay, so first

737
00:44:39,170 --> 00:44:41,071
of all, it's not even the guy, the guy who

738
00:44:41,111 --> 00:44:43,873
was no good, Tony. Tony's on vacation. He's so bad.

739
00:44:45,174 --> 00:44:48,596
So they start off with... Bleed leads. If it bleeds,

740
00:44:48,676 --> 00:44:51,358
it leads. You don't start off with water. Water is

741
00:44:51,398 --> 00:44:55,101
just not that exciting. And then to wrap it up

742
00:44:55,221 --> 00:44:59,424
with a Meghan Markle type, the kid and everything, and

743
00:44:59,464 --> 00:45:02,566
then this concert, incredibly, I'm really, I just want you

744
00:45:02,566 --> 00:45:04,947
to feel very, very excited because I've got some noise

745
00:45:05,027 --> 00:45:07,289
going on behind me. That means there's news, people, there's

746
00:45:07,329 --> 00:45:12,052
news. Water and royalty. It's no good. It's no good.

747
00:45:13,113 --> 00:45:17,016
It's no good. No. It's so no good that by

748
00:45:17,156 --> 00:45:21,098
contrasting it with the other two networks, it's embarrassingly bad.

749
00:45:21,238 --> 00:45:23,200
It really is. One of the worst I've ever heard

750
00:45:23,260 --> 00:45:27,202
them do. Yeah, I always felt the same way. So

751
00:45:27,303 --> 00:45:30,044
we go on to the next highest in rating, which

752
00:45:30,144 --> 00:45:33,107
is CBS at the bottom. So we have NBC with

753
00:45:33,307 --> 00:45:36,909
Yamas. And he does a full two minutes. Too long.

754
00:45:36,989 --> 00:45:39,931
It's too long. I agree. I think it should be

755
00:45:40,011 --> 00:45:43,394
a minute. It should be under two minutes. Oh, yeah.

756
00:45:43,434 --> 00:45:45,215
It should be 1.30. It's just under two minutes. I

757
00:45:45,255 --> 00:46:50,019
don't care. But... It's exciting. No, no. Storms putting millions

758
00:46:50,139 --> 00:46:53,982
at risk flight delays and cancellations piling up across the

759
00:46:54,022 --> 00:46:58,305
East Coast deadly shoe factory fire dozens killed as this

760
00:46:58,385 --> 00:47:02,107
building goes up in flames workers fleeing to the rooftop

761
00:47:02,487 --> 00:47:06,190
one clinging to the building the college athlete found dead

762
00:47:06,330 --> 00:47:09,512
after a July 4th party on a remote island his

763
00:47:09,592 --> 00:47:13,015
parents now demanding answers what could be the last photo

764
00:47:13,095 --> 00:47:17,318
of him before his death Brooklyn Bridge rescue dramatic video

765
00:47:17,758 --> 00:47:48,599
as the NY This is like local news. Wow. ABC

766
00:47:48,639 --> 00:47:52,962
Nightly News with Tom Yamas. That's interesting to throw a

767
00:47:53,362 --> 00:47:57,045
one-hit wonder in there. One song, Total Eclipse of the

768
00:47:57,085 --> 00:48:05,150
Heart. Well, ABC does the same thing. Oh, really? Yeah,

769
00:48:05,290 --> 00:48:08,933
they throw it in, too. All those stories are totally

770
00:48:08,993 --> 00:48:11,795
different than the ones CBS portrayed, which are all boring.

771
00:48:11,875 --> 00:48:16,758
Yeah. I mean, they like to use mysterious new addition.

772
00:48:17,058 --> 00:48:20,541
He uses a lot of teaser words. Here's what I'm

773
00:48:20,601 --> 00:48:25,304
missing. I am missing explosive diarrhea from these stories. That's

774
00:48:25,384 --> 00:48:28,406
the story. That's what people want to hear. That's what

775
00:48:28,486 --> 00:48:33,049
I'd have. Explosive diarrhea now in 36 states. You got

776
00:48:33,109 --> 00:48:37,492
my attention. I'm surprised they didn't. Now, I have to

777
00:48:37,572 --> 00:48:41,195
assume it was explosive diarrhea. This story's been going on

778
00:48:41,195 --> 00:48:43,476
for weeks. A Friday story? It's been going on for

779
00:48:43,556 --> 00:48:46,598
weeks. Yeah, you're right. Okay, well, we're going to go.

780
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:51,442
Now we have the clear winner. The winner. And it's

781
00:48:51,522 --> 00:48:56,465
long. It's too long. Yeah. I agree. In fact, it's

782
00:48:56,565 --> 00:49:00,188
way too long. It's over two minutes. But it's got

783
00:49:00,288 --> 00:49:02,609
all the right elements. Wait a minute. I got to

784
00:49:02,649 --> 00:49:04,090
try this for myself. Hold on a second. Let me

785
00:49:04,110 --> 00:49:07,853
try this. Because you got to do it. I think

786
00:49:07,893 --> 00:49:09,574
you have to do it like this. What is it?

787
00:49:10,475 --> 00:49:13,877
Where's my teletype? I need my teletype. Okay. Here we

788
00:49:13,897 --> 00:49:18,040
go. At this hour, explosive diarrhea now in 36 states.

789
00:49:18,340 --> 00:49:22,023
We've got the video. I mean, that. That. If you

790
00:49:22,083 --> 00:49:24,424
can start it off like that, you've got a new

791
00:49:24,564 --> 00:49:28,947
show. Except you left out one thing which I'll discuss

792
00:49:29,067 --> 00:49:31,449
after we play this clip. Now, this is like the

793
00:49:31,489 --> 00:49:34,371
breaking. Sorry. Wait, wait. That was my cue. Yeah, it

794
00:49:34,451 --> 00:49:38,234
was. Okay. Play the clip. Tonight, the breaking news. The

795
00:49:38,234 --> 00:49:41,516
U.S. strikes Iran, then Iranian drones and missiles intercepted. The

796
00:49:41,556 --> 00:49:45,859
situation intensifying. Also breaking a horrific story tonight, a flight

797
00:49:45,919 --> 00:49:49,581
instructor jumping from the plane, leaving his student to land

798
00:49:49,641 --> 00:49:51,943
the plane on her own. Good one. First tonight, the

799
00:49:52,063 --> 00:49:54,665
U.S. and Iran. The U.S. has dozens of Iranian drones

800
00:49:54,705 --> 00:49:58,187
and missiles have been intercepted in Kuwait and Bahrain, home

801
00:49:58,227 --> 00:49:59,788
to several American bases.

802
00:50:00,240 --> 00:50:03,502
Martha Raddatz standing by with late reporting. Tonight, that horrific

803
00:50:03,602 --> 00:50:07,144
story emerging, the shocking moments on a plane. An instructor

804
00:50:07,304 --> 00:50:10,286
jumping from the plane, leaving his young student to land

805
00:50:10,327 --> 00:50:12,508
the plane on her own. What she did to save

806
00:50:12,568 --> 00:50:16,170
her own life. New images from the NYPD tonight of

807
00:50:16,291 --> 00:50:19,793
terrifying moments on the Brooklyn Bridge. Saving a woman, climbing

808
00:50:19,813 --> 00:50:23,435
the support cables. In Maine tonight, the all-out scramble to

809
00:50:23,476 --> 00:50:26,818
replace Graham Plattner in the race for Senate. What happens

810
00:50:26,938 --> 00:50:30,540
now? Some Democrats in that state furious, saying, give up

811
00:50:30,660 --> 00:50:33,903
our chance to beat Susan Collins. Tonight, the new and

812
00:50:34,043 --> 00:50:36,404
critical hearing in the case against the man accused of

813
00:50:36,484 --> 00:50:40,087
killing Charlie Kirk. One of former romantic partners, as Tyler

814
00:50:40,167 --> 00:50:44,270
Robinson said, the day after Charlie Kirk was killed. At

815
00:50:44,370 --> 00:50:47,392
this hour, we are tracking powerful storms right now in

816
00:50:47,452 --> 00:50:50,294
the East. Sam Champion is here with the forecast. Sam

817
00:50:50,414 --> 00:50:53,436
Champion's 100 years old. Tonight, the mom who said the

818
00:50:53,556 --> 00:50:57,178
flu shot killed both of her 18-month-old twins. Nice. She

819
00:50:57,319 --> 00:51:30,721
railed against vaccines. What? Nice. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. Bonnie

820
00:51:30,781 --> 00:51:41,329
Tyler and total eclipse of the heart while we were

821
00:51:41,469 --> 00:51:43,730
on the air covering the eclipse. And me in a

822
00:51:43,770 --> 00:51:47,032
split screen with Bonnie Tyler is something I never thought

823
00:51:47,092 --> 00:51:50,215
I would witness. You'll see what she did next tonight

824
00:51:50,535 --> 00:51:58,840
celebrating Bonnie Tyler. ABC News World Headquarters in New York.

825
00:52:08,167 --> 00:52:32,423
tonight with David Muir. that was a mistake. Yeah, I

826
00:52:32,443 --> 00:52:34,004
agree. And they left it in and he just was

827
00:52:34,065 --> 00:52:36,746
reading right from the prompter. I mean, they easily could

828
00:52:36,806 --> 00:52:39,828
have put in explosive diarrhea. This would have fit perfectly.

829
00:52:39,848 --> 00:52:42,971
You could have swapped out the second instructor jumps out

830
00:52:42,971 --> 00:52:46,813
of the plane with explosive diarrhea. Yeah, I agree. I

831
00:52:46,853 --> 00:52:48,514
have a question for the Book of Knowledge. Book of

832
00:52:48,534 --> 00:52:51,857
Knowledge, what year was Total Eclipse of the Heart a

833
00:52:51,997 --> 00:52:54,599
hit record? I'd like to know that for a second.

834
00:52:54,759 --> 00:52:59,162
This has got to be 45 years old. They don't

835
00:52:59,202 --> 00:53:03,204
know their audience. Maybe they do. Let's see. According to

836
00:53:03,284 --> 00:53:06,647
the book of knowledge, Total Eclipse of the Heart, written

837
00:53:06,707 --> 00:53:12,311
by Jim Steinman, was released on February 11th, 1983. Come

838
00:53:12,731 --> 00:53:15,593
on. It hit number one in the United States on

839
00:53:15,693 --> 00:53:19,335
October the 1st of that same year, spending four weeks

840
00:53:19,375 --> 00:53:23,058
atop the Billboard Hot 100 and going on to become

841
00:53:23,158 --> 00:53:27,241
one of the biggest selling singles of all time. Thus,

842
00:53:28,362 --> 00:53:33,185
it has been written. That's a very old song. Yeah.

843
00:53:33,345 --> 00:53:36,767
The audience is old. Come on. Yeah. Okay. Well, maybe.

844
00:53:37,448 --> 00:53:39,349
So here's the, let me read this from this note.

845
00:53:39,369 --> 00:53:44,052
All right. Adam, I think I know why you're noticing

846
00:53:44,272 --> 00:53:50,557
breaking news. At this hour. As you join us in

847
00:53:50,597 --> 00:53:53,138
this hour, we have breaking news. He has all the

848
00:53:53,338 --> 00:53:56,481
beginnings. Yeah. He has the beginnings. As you join us,

849
00:53:56,541 --> 00:53:58,742
we have breaking news. As you welcome us into your

850
00:53:58,782 --> 00:54:00,684
home, we have breaking news. At the top of the

851
00:54:00,724 --> 00:54:03,505
broadcast, we have breaking news. on and on and on.

852
00:54:03,966 --> 00:54:05,827
And I'm going to read this. He says, I've written

853
00:54:05,867 --> 00:54:10,030
about this a million times. The consultants would sit us

854
00:54:10,170 --> 00:54:13,853
down. I'm skipping ahead here. Sit us down and tell

855
00:54:13,933 --> 00:54:16,735
us how dumb we are not to lead our show

856
00:54:16,855 --> 00:54:20,497
with breaking news. That's what the people want, they said.

857
00:54:20,517 --> 00:54:24,720
They would have examples and ratings and how they worked

858
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:28,623
at station XYZ in Colorado or Mississippi or whatever. Then

859
00:54:28,763 --> 00:54:31,384
two years later, they would come back and say, what

860
00:54:31,445 --> 00:54:34,867
are you doing? That's not a breaking news story. Save

861
00:54:34,967 --> 00:54:38,709
breaking news for real breaking news. Lead with another break.

862
00:54:40,531 --> 00:54:44,093
So I, this note came in a while ago, so

863
00:54:44,233 --> 00:54:48,596
I studied this on the networks and found an interesting

864
00:54:48,676 --> 00:54:55,801
coincidence. Okay. ABC. Uses breaking news almost every show. Right.

865
00:54:56,662 --> 00:55:00,224
They're number one. There you go. And if you listen

866
00:55:00,304 --> 00:55:04,327
to this last one. He had breaking news. Play the

867
00:55:04,347 --> 00:55:07,609
beginning again, just the very beginning, because he says breaking

868
00:55:07,669 --> 00:55:11,612
news, and then he has a second breaking news. Tonight,

869
00:55:11,632 --> 00:55:14,454
the breaking news. The U.S. strikes Iran, then Iranian drones

870
00:55:14,514 --> 00:55:18,877
and missiles intercepted. The situation intensifying. Also breaking a horrific

871
00:55:18,897 --> 00:55:22,800
story tonight, a flight instructor jumping from the plane. Hold

872
00:55:22,860 --> 00:55:25,301
on. Does he have a third? Leaving his student to

873
00:55:25,501 --> 00:55:28,423
land the plane. He actually has a third. At the

874
00:55:28,543 --> 00:55:30,965
end of the whole tease, he starts again with breaking

875
00:55:31,025 --> 00:55:35,128
news. uses it the most he uses it all the

876
00:55:35,148 --> 00:55:40,592
time second most usage yeah is tom yamas about twice

877
00:55:40,632 --> 00:55:45,795
a week Twice a week? About twice a week. That's

878
00:55:45,815 --> 00:55:49,057
not enough. That's clearly not enough. No. But he does

879
00:55:49,117 --> 00:55:50,959
it about twice a week, and it's exactly the same

880
00:55:51,279 --> 00:55:53,220
each time. If you look up the – I had

881
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,503
a clip called Breaking News, which has Jammes two shows

882
00:55:56,583 --> 00:55:58,864
in a row. You're kind of all jacked about this.

883
00:55:59,485 --> 00:56:02,427
Well, it's because I think it's interesting. And I'm jacked

884
00:56:02,447 --> 00:56:04,848
about it because what the consultants say – I got

885
00:56:04,868 --> 00:56:06,890
it. I got it here. The seven-second clip? Is that

886
00:56:06,910 --> 00:56:10,532
what you're talking about? Yeah. Yes. Breaking news as we

887
00:56:10,632 --> 00:56:12,513
come on the air. Breaking news as we come on

888
00:56:12,593 --> 00:56:15,075
the air. The U.S. launched – Those are two different

889
00:56:15,135 --> 00:56:18,618
shows. Breaking news. Escalation. Right. Hey, breaking news, John. What

890
00:56:18,618 --> 00:56:20,519
do you got? Breaking news. We should be doing that.

891
00:56:20,539 --> 00:56:22,540
Breaking news as we come on the air is what

892
00:56:22,620 --> 00:56:29,145
Yamas always says. At this hour. So they have the

893
00:56:29,225 --> 00:56:35,349
second highest ratings and the laggard. is Barry Weiss is

894
00:56:35,669 --> 00:56:37,951
who she was. She's not going to listen to broadcasting

895
00:56:38,011 --> 00:56:41,974
consultants. Well, also, no, this is exactly because she is

896
00:56:42,054 --> 00:56:45,116
a writer. And she's like, this is not breaking news.

897
00:56:45,216 --> 00:56:47,898
This is just news. So we shouldn't tag it with

898
00:56:47,918 --> 00:56:51,680
breaking news. I can see her saying it. I can

899
00:56:51,720 --> 00:56:55,963
see you're saying nothing's breaking news basically on a TV

900
00:56:56,223 --> 00:56:59,786
show. It's not breaking. Very little is breaking. Let's be

901
00:56:59,906 --> 00:57:05,550
realistic here. It happened hours ago or days ago. It's

902
00:57:05,610 --> 00:57:08,712
bull crap. It's not breaking news. Breaking news. Nobody knows

903
00:57:08,832 --> 00:57:13,875
anything at this hour. So the ratings follow exactly. The

904
00:57:13,975 --> 00:57:18,158
formula that the consultant saves. You use breaking news as

905
00:57:18,258 --> 00:57:21,000
much as you can. Yeah. And in fact, this is

906
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,902
exactly what happens. And so you have a situation at

907
00:57:23,982 --> 00:57:28,165
CBS that... As much as I disagree and I don't

908
00:57:28,205 --> 00:57:31,807
like Scott Pelley, I have to say he's probably right.

909
00:57:31,887 --> 00:57:36,230
Barry Weiss is incompetent at this. She should not be

910
00:57:36,311 --> 00:57:41,254
running a TV network. And here's the cool thing. I

911
00:57:41,334 --> 00:57:44,776
really don't care because it all sucks. They're all no

912
00:57:44,836 --> 00:57:46,477
good. Well, it does all suck, but I'm just trying

913
00:57:46,518 --> 00:57:50,520
to point out the consultants have a point. Yeah. Well,

914
00:57:50,540 --> 00:57:54,443
that's why they're consultants. That's maybe what we should, you

915
00:57:54,443 --> 00:57:57,825
know, we give away this advice for free. We should

916
00:57:57,865 --> 00:58:01,568
be consultants. Yeah, it would make some real money. Well,

917
00:58:01,628 --> 00:58:05,530
here's the thing that none of the news networks had,

918
00:58:05,550 --> 00:58:07,812
and I thought it would be breaking news, but it

919
00:58:07,812 --> 00:58:11,735
wasn't breaking news because it's just not breaking news. Early

920
00:58:11,755 --> 00:58:15,177
this morning, the Pentagon declassifying a bunch of videos that

921
00:58:15,217 --> 00:58:19,000
look weird, like this one. Look at this. What's that?

922
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:23,463
What is that? We don't know. They don't say. This

923
00:58:23,583 --> 00:58:27,225
is basically, you know, all they're doing. They're releasing videos

924
00:58:27,265 --> 00:58:50,141
with very, very little context. This, by the way, is

925
00:58:50,361 --> 00:58:56,465
NBC talking about the latest UAP UFO video release. Is

926
00:58:56,505 --> 00:59:00,288
this like lens flaring, lens artifacting, or is that actually

927
00:59:00,348 --> 00:59:06,532
something that is shooting off some... So this being NBC,

928
00:59:06,872 --> 00:59:10,615
this person should be fired. I mean, if you have

929
00:59:10,795 --> 00:59:14,097
UAPs, UFOs, there's a high amount of interest for it.

930
00:59:14,778 --> 00:59:17,880
It's just not grabbing people's attention anymore. And the White

931
00:59:17,940 --> 00:59:23,243
House has hired this guy from Harvard, Avi Lube. Lube.

932
00:59:23,644 --> 00:59:27,927
Avi Lube. L-O-E-B, but I can't. but think of L-U-B-E.

933
00:59:29,628 --> 00:59:32,890
And he is part of the White House UAP Council.

934
00:59:33,530 --> 00:59:37,133
And this guy. Well, the Pentagon today released a new

935
00:59:37,433 --> 00:59:41,236
trove of UFO files. And of the 40 new files,

936
00:59:41,416 --> 00:59:44,658
19 of them are videos. They're coming from the Pentagon,

937
00:59:44,878 --> 00:59:49,321
NASA, the CIA, the FBI, and the Energy Department. So

938
00:59:49,361 --> 00:59:51,663
let's bring in Avi Loeb, who now leads the White

939
00:59:51,703 --> 00:59:55,966
House UAP Council. Avi, what can you tell us? What's

940
00:59:56,026 --> 00:59:58,648
in these files? What are we looking at here? Well,

941
00:59:58,708 --> 00:59:59,908
first, thank you for

942
01:00:00,660 --> 01:00:06,684
We see documents dating back to 1948-49 when a conference

943
01:00:06,764 --> 01:00:11,387
took place in Los Alamos led by Edward Teller that

944
01:00:11,507 --> 01:00:15,670
was involved in the Manhattan Project earlier. And it involves

945
01:00:16,050 --> 01:00:21,354
quite distinguished physicists talking about green fireballs that they cannot

946
01:00:21,414 --> 01:00:27,198
figure out, some objects moving horizontally. And so these objects

947
01:00:27,458 --> 01:00:34,823
remained unresolved. a number of videos from recent years where...

948
01:00:35,804 --> 01:00:40,967
So this guy is supposed to sell this? I got

949
01:00:40,967 --> 01:00:42,869
a whole I'm going to play one more clip of

950
01:00:42,969 --> 01:00:45,270
this guy because he kind of he kind of winds

951
01:00:45,350 --> 01:00:47,492
it up where I think it was meant to go.

952
01:00:47,572 --> 01:00:50,054
And this is CBS. Anything else that sort of sparked

953
01:00:50,114 --> 01:00:52,655
your interest that says, oh, wait, we might have something

954
01:00:52,735 --> 01:00:56,518
here that maybe prove some of these theories or maybe

955
01:00:56,578 --> 01:01:01,081
disprove them. No, at this time there is no single

956
01:01:01,301 --> 01:01:05,324
video image or any other data that indicates a non-human

957
01:01:05,624 --> 01:01:09,507
origin for any of these objects. The star-looking object that

958
01:01:09,567 --> 01:01:11,969
you mentioned could be just a diffraction pattern that is

959
01:01:12,129 --> 01:01:16,932
often found in the optics of cameras. So I would

960
01:01:16,992 --> 01:01:19,614
say at the moment there is no conclusive evidence, but

961
01:01:19,634 --> 01:01:23,136
the good news is that the best is yet to

962
01:01:23,176 --> 01:01:26,899
come, that there is classified data that probably is much

963
01:01:27,039 --> 01:01:41,208
richer and more convincing Wouldn't that be breaking news? There's

964
01:01:42,509 --> 01:01:58,820
data to come, much richer, more convincing. objects cannot be

965
01:01:58,860 --> 01:02:02,243
human made because otherwise they would put the reports in

966
01:02:02,443 --> 01:02:06,186
a classified memo to the secretary of war, Pete Hexet.

967
01:02:06,686 --> 01:02:09,508
They would not ask me as a scientist to help

968
01:02:09,608 --> 01:02:12,230
them figure it out. So I think we are heading

969
01:02:12,290 --> 01:02:16,152
in an interesting direction into the future. The future is

970
01:02:16,232 --> 01:02:19,615
better than the past. And we will figure it out

971
01:02:19,795 --> 01:02:24,018
using the scientific method by collecting more evidence. It's not

972
01:02:24,038 --> 01:02:26,599
a matter of opinions. We should not pay attention to

973
01:02:26,699 --> 01:02:30,182
social media. This is a scientific matter trying to figure

974
01:02:30,282 --> 01:02:32,864
out the nature of these objects, and we'll get to

975
01:02:32,924 --> 01:02:36,046
the bottom of it. And this is much more inspiring

976
01:02:36,426 --> 01:02:40,829
than the script of Steven Spielberg in the recent movie

977
01:02:40,949 --> 01:02:45,813
Disclosure Day, because over there, the government fights scientists and

978
01:02:45,973 --> 01:02:49,435
crashes their car against a moving train. My car is

979
01:02:49,515 --> 01:02:52,497
completely intact, and I feel privileged to help the U.S.

980
01:02:52,577 --> 01:02:57,260
government. That's what I'm saying. It's like everyone gave up

981
01:02:57,380 --> 01:03:00,823
on this story. Yeah, whatever. Another video. There was more.

982
01:03:01,003 --> 01:03:03,324
You know, they should have had the foamers out. Did

983
01:03:03,344 --> 01:03:06,587
you see all the foamers for the big boy 4404,

984
01:03:06,667 --> 01:03:09,148
whatever that train? Oh, this is constant. It's not just.

985
01:03:09,489 --> 01:03:12,831
Oh, Lord. There's a million videos of it. I know.

986
01:03:13,131 --> 01:03:15,092
Why didn't they have that? They could have had a

987
01:03:15,152 --> 01:03:18,255
great foamer. All of this. Everyone. They're missing everything. All

988
01:03:18,275 --> 01:03:21,857
the good stuff. And then this guy's on for 15

989
01:03:21,937 --> 01:03:24,379
minutes on each of the news networks, boring everyone to

990
01:03:24,439 --> 01:03:27,661
death. If you listen to the first clip over, they

991
01:03:27,741 --> 01:03:30,823
say this stuff was released by so-and-so and so-and-so and

992
01:03:30,843 --> 01:03:35,046
the energy department. Yes. You heard that? Yeah, I did.

993
01:03:35,887 --> 01:03:38,188
Why do you think the Department of Energy, what was

994
01:03:38,248 --> 01:03:40,630
their involvement? I have a little, just a tidbit here.

995
01:03:40,870 --> 01:03:45,273
Nukes. No. No. What? So I took a tour of

996
01:03:46,014 --> 01:03:48,395
Nellis Air Force Base and got to sit in on

997
01:03:48,896 --> 01:03:54,319
a training session for... some combat stuff. Wait, when was

998
01:03:54,399 --> 01:03:56,641
this? How come you didn't? This was a long time

999
01:03:56,701 --> 01:03:59,883
ago. This was years ago. Wait a minute. When Comdex

1000
01:03:59,963 --> 01:04:02,125
was still a thing. Okay, let me just set the

1001
01:04:02,185 --> 01:04:04,726
scene. You can't just throw that out there. Well, I'm

1002
01:04:04,766 --> 01:04:07,989
just saying. I had a conversation with one of the

1003
01:04:08,449 --> 01:04:14,973
guys running this. We started talking about Area 51. And

1004
01:04:14,993 --> 01:04:18,155
he says to me, you know who Area 51 belongs

1005
01:04:18,235 --> 01:04:22,218
to, right? I said, the military. He says, no, the

1006
01:04:22,278 --> 01:04:27,482
Department of Energy. Oh. I said, what? Yeah. Area 51

1007
01:04:27,542 --> 01:04:30,444
belongs to the Department of Energy? Why? He says, you

1008
01:04:30,564 --> 01:04:34,787
got me. Well, you know, I got a guy over

1009
01:04:34,827 --> 01:04:37,929
there. He runs the technology at the Department of Energy.

1010
01:04:38,009 --> 01:04:40,211
He says there's a lot of activity. He's in Colorado.

1011
01:04:40,291 --> 01:04:42,272
He hates it. I mean, he loves his job, but

1012
01:04:42,312 --> 01:04:48,236
he's Colorado. I think the Department of Energy, because I

1013
01:04:48,336 --> 01:04:51,958
think they're trying to find some new way or anti-gravity

1014
01:04:52,019 --> 01:04:55,901
or some form of energy. That's the only logical explanation

1015
01:04:55,961 --> 01:05:00,985
for it. Well, yeah. Of course. We all want that.

1016
01:05:02,085 --> 01:05:05,027
Yeah, free energy. I'm tired of waiting. Zero point. I'm

1017
01:05:05,208 --> 01:05:08,690
tired of waiting for my... Zero point energy. Where is

1018
01:05:08,830 --> 01:05:12,372
it? Hey, so let's just stay kind of in technology

1019
01:05:12,452 --> 01:05:15,434
since that's where you came from. And this was the

1020
01:05:15,515 --> 01:05:18,216
story that was played up real big. I'm not sure

1021
01:05:18,216 --> 01:05:21,759
it's as big as it sounds. Mackenzie Segalos has more

1022
01:05:21,879 --> 01:05:25,641
back. So Brian, Apple has just filed a federal lawsuit

1023
01:05:25,742 --> 01:05:29,684
against OpenAI accusing the AI startup of stealing trade secrets

1024
01:05:30,004 --> 01:05:32,146
to build its own consumer hardware. Now I have the

1025
01:05:32,166 --> 01:05:36,009
41-page filing here. Apple writes that, quote, at every level,

1026
01:05:36,089 --> 01:05:38,570
from members of its technical staff to its chief hardware

1027
01:05:38,670 --> 01:05:43,073
officer, and in coordination with business partners. has been stealing

1028
01:05:43,273 --> 01:05:46,756
Apple's trade secrets and confidential information. Now, Apple says it

1029
01:05:46,836 --> 01:05:51,319
uncovered a pattern involving former employees who joined OpenAI. The

1030
01:05:51,379 --> 01:05:55,862
suit specifically names OpenAI chief hardware officer Tang Tan, accusing

1031
01:05:55,922 --> 01:05:59,324
him of using job interviews with Apple employees to seek

1032
01:05:59,425 --> 01:06:04,068
details about unreleased products and technologies, and then coaching departing

1033
01:06:04,128 --> 01:06:07,790
workers on how to evade Apple's security procedures. The filing

1034
01:06:07,890 --> 01:06:13,474
also names a former Apple product developer laptop to OpenAI

1035
01:06:13,714 --> 01:06:17,317
and used it for months to download highly confidential documents,

1036
01:06:17,677 --> 01:06:21,640
including information from Apple's R&D lab. I think you're uniquely

1037
01:06:21,700 --> 01:06:26,623
qualified to discuss this story. What are your thoughts? It

1038
01:06:26,743 --> 01:06:30,386
goes on all the time. Yeah, that was my first

1039
01:06:30,446 --> 01:06:33,107
thought. This is nothing new. In fact, Apple has stolen

1040
01:06:33,188 --> 01:06:37,230
more stuff from other people. And this is what all

1041
01:06:37,270 --> 01:06:40,192
these companies do. Hey, this is a great product. Oh,

1042
01:06:40,232 --> 01:06:42,434
I'm sorry. Now it's a part of office. Well, the

1043
01:06:42,514 --> 01:06:46,076
best example of somebody stealing from somebody, I think, is

1044
01:06:46,176 --> 01:06:50,699
Google. Yeah. Examples. Because Eric Schmidt was on the board

1045
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:54,082
of directors at Apple during the development period of the

1046
01:06:54,262 --> 01:06:58,665
iPhone. That's right. And he said to himself, hey, this

1047
01:06:58,785 --> 01:07:02,608
is a hell of an idea. Let's start developing our

1048
01:07:02,788 --> 01:07:06,110
own iPhone over here at Google, because he was the

1049
01:07:06,170 --> 01:07:09,893
chairman at Google. And they made the Android operating system

1050
01:07:09,953 --> 01:07:13,735
and the Android phones, which are... worldwide more popular than

1051
01:07:13,755 --> 01:07:16,117
the iPhone are totally stolen. Well, they bought it. They

1052
01:07:16,177 --> 01:07:18,979
bought the Android operating system. I don't think they developed

1053
01:07:19,059 --> 01:07:23,061
it. They bought it. Yeah, but it was all from

1054
01:07:23,682 --> 01:07:26,764
knowing about the iPhone in advance. Yeah, but I think

1055
01:07:26,804 --> 01:07:29,246
the thing that really bothers Apple... When the iPhone dropped

1056
01:07:29,526 --> 01:07:34,189
in 2007... Dropped? I'm sorry. Pick it up. Somebody better

1057
01:07:34,269 --> 01:07:37,952
pick it up. Pick it up. When they first dropped

1058
01:07:38,052 --> 01:07:41,194
and broke the screen immediately because all those iPhones, the

1059
01:07:41,234 --> 01:07:44,616
screens couldn't hold up. And they went to Gorilla Glass

1060
01:07:44,736 --> 01:07:48,979
after that. Yeah. There was advance notice. I mean, they

1061
01:07:49,099 --> 01:07:54,263
didn't, they didn't, everyone didn't start developing the Android stuff

1062
01:07:54,663 --> 01:07:58,586
at that day. It was already started. Yeah. Remember I

1063
01:07:58,646 --> 01:08:00,667
had one of the first, I think I had the

1064
01:08:00,807 --> 01:08:05,030
first iPhone in the UK. Remember the very first iPhone?

1065
01:08:05,330 --> 01:08:06,871
Is that the one you dropped in the toilet? Yes,

1066
01:08:07,332 --> 01:08:09,813
yes. I had it a week and dropped it in

1067
01:08:09,913 --> 01:08:14,176
the toilet. And they did not recover back in those

1068
01:08:14,216 --> 01:08:17,939
days. You put it in rice. We did that. Rice,

1069
01:08:18,079 --> 01:08:22,502
kitty litter, everything. It's all documented on my blog. It

1070
01:08:22,582 --> 01:08:25,324
never came back. I think the one thing that, I

1071
01:08:25,404 --> 01:08:27,726
think they're just pissed about the Johnny Ive thing, though.

1072
01:08:27,786 --> 01:08:31,888
Here's this. So they specifically get into details of, there's

1073
01:08:31,948 --> 01:08:35,171
one here about how, was working with hardware firms to

1074
01:08:35,211 --> 01:08:38,193
carry out a metal finishing technique that Apple had invented.

1075
01:08:38,573 --> 01:08:42,696
So basically very specific things. Also talking about circuit boards

1076
01:08:43,036 --> 01:08:46,138
and these components that go in to hardware devices. And

1077
01:08:46,178 --> 01:08:48,039
really we started to see this rift between the two

1078
01:08:48,119 --> 01:08:51,462
companies because remember, they signed that landmark partnership just two

1079
01:08:51,662 --> 01:08:54,504
years ago. It was ChatGPT that was baked into Apple

1080
01:08:54,564 --> 01:08:57,406
Intelligence. But then Sam decided to get into the game

1081
01:08:57,506 --> 01:08:59,767
of, Sam Altman decided to get into the game of

1082
01:08:59,827 --> 01:09:02,429
consumer hardware. And then he brought in Johnny Ive, who's

1083
01:09:02,489 --> 01:09:06,132
this Apple alumni. who was a huge design chief, very

1084
01:09:06,152 --> 01:09:09,754
important to the iPhone's evolution, who reportedly is working on

1085
01:09:09,974 --> 01:09:13,337
very similar devices meant for the generative AI era to

1086
01:09:13,397 --> 01:09:16,739
what Apple's working on right now in-house. I mean, I'm

1087
01:09:16,899 --> 01:09:19,681
very curious to see what kind of device they're going

1088
01:09:19,701 --> 01:09:25,165
to come out with. What fantastic device will... Because this

1089
01:09:25,225 --> 01:09:27,166
is really what we need. We need a replacement for

1090
01:09:27,206 --> 01:09:30,368
these smartphones. Something that will blow everybody away. It'll be

1091
01:09:30,428 --> 01:09:36,893
so phenomenal. Johnny Ive. Yeah, right. I'm Johnny Ive. I

1092
01:09:37,013 --> 01:09:39,835
created the iPhone and I built a beautiful Ferrari with

1093
01:09:39,875 --> 01:09:45,599
batteries. Is anyone buying that thing? Johnny Ives is one

1094
01:09:45,639 --> 01:09:49,241
of those guys that probably has some design genius in

1095
01:09:49,301 --> 01:09:52,844
him, but needs like a prick like Steve Jobs. Yeah,

1096
01:09:52,964 --> 01:09:55,325
to run him. To run him. To tell him, no,

1097
01:09:55,405 --> 01:09:59,868
that stinks. That's no good. I could just imagine Steve

1098
01:09:59,888 --> 01:09:59,988
Jobs.

1099
01:10:00,079 --> 01:10:03,002
I was looking at the Ferrari going, this sucks. Go

1100
01:10:03,162 --> 01:10:05,763
back. Go back to the drawing board. You built me

1101
01:10:05,863 --> 01:10:12,388
a $500,000 roller skate. That's no good. So I was

1102
01:10:12,488 --> 01:10:16,931
listening to, I can't remember. It might have been something

1103
01:10:17,011 --> 01:10:20,253
with... I don't know, Ted Cruz might have been in

1104
01:10:20,273 --> 01:10:23,936
the Oval Office. And the president said something that I

1105
01:10:24,016 --> 01:10:29,600
thought was... um It's just like, oh, that's your hedge.

1106
01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:32,762
Because you've got all these data centers. And we know

1107
01:10:32,842 --> 01:10:34,463
that these data centers, there's going to be too many

1108
01:10:34,523 --> 01:10:38,045
of them. Even if AI is wildly successful, nobody needs

1109
01:10:38,085 --> 01:10:52,775
all these data centers. They just don't need it. And

1110
01:10:54,917 --> 01:11:13,930
he said this. accident. But if the data centers don't

1111
01:11:13,990 --> 01:11:19,073
work out, the amount of energy, gas-fired energy, nuclear energy

1112
01:11:19,514 --> 01:11:22,516
that will have been built up... In all kinds of

1113
01:11:22,636 --> 01:11:25,918
areas where people have the inverse problem now of data

1114
01:11:25,978 --> 01:11:28,540
centers supposedly going to suck away all of their energy,

1115
01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:32,242
taking their electric bills up. This is kind of a

1116
01:11:32,262 --> 01:11:35,485
distributed grid that is being built here. Here's another thing

1117
01:11:35,505 --> 01:11:37,206
he said. But you have to see some of the

1118
01:11:37,286 --> 01:11:40,568
electric producing, the generating plants that they're making. Nobody's ever

1119
01:11:40,628 --> 01:11:44,050
seen because they're brilliant people. And it's a fantastic thing.

1120
01:11:44,070 --> 01:11:45,772
But if I didn't come up with that idea, maybe

1121
01:11:45,832 --> 01:11:47,953
somebody else would have. I doubt it. Because it's too

1122
01:11:48,033 --> 01:11:50,675
simple. I mean, it's such a simple idea. Do you

1123
01:11:50,715 --> 01:11:54,177
know that your friends, Michael, when I came up with

1124
01:11:54,217 --> 01:11:57,980
that, and I told Mark Zuckerberg, I told Bezos, I

1125
01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:02,703
told all of the people, AI Sam. AI Sam. I

1126
01:12:02,763 --> 01:12:04,324
told them all. I said, no, no, I'm going to

1127
01:12:04,344 --> 01:12:06,145
let you build your own plant, and I'm going to

1128
01:12:06,145 --> 01:12:09,408
get your fast approvals. AI Sam. Yeah, and so I

1129
01:12:09,488 --> 01:12:11,289
guess they didn't believe it at first. They thought I

1130
01:12:11,349 --> 01:12:14,151
was kidding. You know, they said, And they would submit

1131
01:12:14,251 --> 01:12:17,133
plans without an electric plant. And I'd get calls from

1132
01:12:17,413 --> 01:12:22,176
Lee Zeldin, who's a star, environmental, fast approvals, good approvals,

1133
01:12:22,196 --> 01:12:26,019
but fast. Then they'd call up and say, sir, these

1134
01:12:26,079 --> 01:12:28,961
plants are not taking advantage. And I'd call them and

1135
01:12:28,981 --> 01:12:31,303
say, why aren't you producing? They said, we thought you

1136
01:12:31,343 --> 01:12:32,844
were, every one of them, they thought I was kidding

1137
01:12:32,844 --> 01:12:35,606
because they can't believe it. Number one, they can't believe

1138
01:12:35,666 --> 01:12:37,427
that they're approved in a period of a matter of

1139
01:12:37,487 --> 01:12:39,908
weeks, because if this was somebody else, it would be

1140
01:12:40,029 --> 01:12:43,931
20 years before. They're all under construction. We do rapid

1141
01:12:43,971 --> 01:12:47,994
approvals. And some are nuclear plants, because nuclear is now

1142
01:12:48,474 --> 01:12:53,258
really hot. Hot! And safe. Safe. This could be a

1143
01:12:53,478 --> 01:12:59,242
genius. piece of infrastructure for the United States. I think

1144
01:12:59,282 --> 01:13:03,204
this could be big, much bigger than the AI nonsense.

1145
01:13:04,025 --> 01:13:06,046
Everybody's got some cheap energy around the corner. So you

1146
01:13:06,086 --> 01:13:08,688
think it's a Trojan horse? No, I think he was

1147
01:13:08,728 --> 01:13:12,311
like... Listen, I don't think this president is stupid. I

1148
01:13:12,371 --> 01:13:15,773
think he's looking at this going, hmm, I keep hearing

1149
01:13:15,793 --> 01:13:19,756
about these Chinese models. This is all happening. But, hey,

1150
01:13:19,836 --> 01:13:22,397
I'm brilliant because I'm going to get everybody some cheap

1151
01:13:22,497 --> 01:13:27,661
energy. Well, I hope that's exactly what happens. Yes, that

1152
01:13:27,701 --> 01:13:31,524
would be fantastic, especially nuclear energy. They've already approved four

1153
01:13:31,584 --> 01:13:35,486
of these small nuclear reactors. Yeah, nothing in California, of

1154
01:13:35,566 --> 01:13:39,769
course. Well, no, no, you guys. You hate Trump, so

1155
01:13:39,829 --> 01:13:45,513
you don't get any. No energy for you. And CNBC

1156
01:13:45,773 --> 01:13:49,336
keeps seeing problems on the horizon. Our next guest warns

1157
01:13:49,336 --> 01:13:51,878
that a significant slowdown in the payoff of AI could

1158
01:13:51,918 --> 01:13:55,160
tip the economy into recession. Apollo Chief Economist and partner

1159
01:13:55,220 --> 01:13:57,782
Torsten Schlag joins us with more. Torsten, great to have

1160
01:13:57,822 --> 01:14:01,104
you with us. So you're basically asking the question, what

1161
01:14:01,144 --> 01:14:04,226
if it takes longer for this payoff to actually materialize?

1162
01:14:04,286 --> 01:14:07,008
Or what if it doesn't happen? What are the odds?

1163
01:14:07,068 --> 01:14:09,550
How do you assess the risk and the reward here?

1164
01:14:09,590 --> 01:14:11,791
Well, let's first agree that AI is making a huge

1165
01:14:11,831 --> 01:14:15,333
difference in all our lives. revolutionary technology, it continues to

1166
01:14:15,374 --> 01:14:17,855
have a dramatic impact. But the key issue from a

1167
01:14:17,895 --> 01:14:21,137
stock market perspective, any stock price is essentially the net

1168
01:14:21,177 --> 01:14:24,119
present value of the future cash flows. So the discounted

1169
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:26,081
net present value of future cash flows, then suddenly it

1170
01:14:26,081 --> 01:14:28,803
becomes important, what is the slope of those cash flows

1171
01:14:28,803 --> 01:14:30,764
that are coming in the future? And the question now,

1172
01:14:30,844 --> 01:14:33,546
of course, is what are the assumptions in market pricing

1173
01:14:33,566 --> 01:14:36,828
today about how quickly revenues will come to the hyperscalers

1174
01:14:37,168 --> 01:14:38,750
on the back of the investments that they have made?

1175
01:14:39,030 --> 01:14:41,171
So it's really this simple observation that a lot of

1176
01:14:41,251 --> 01:14:44,173
investments are being made, and our is now pricing in

1177
01:14:44,273 --> 01:14:46,855
that revenues are coming too slowly, too quickly, at the

1178
01:14:46,855 --> 01:14:49,497
right pace. This is essentially the discussion that we're having

1179
01:14:49,517 --> 01:14:51,918
in markets and the debate, namely, will the revenues come

1180
01:14:51,958 --> 01:14:53,880
quick enough? This is going to be such a great

1181
01:14:53,940 --> 01:14:56,802
collapse. It's going to be so fantastic. It's going to

1182
01:14:56,822 --> 01:14:59,223
be so fun to watch. And people will still benefit

1183
01:14:59,304 --> 01:15:04,507
from something from AI. There's benefits to it. But I

1184
01:15:04,527 --> 01:15:08,670
don't know, A.I. Sam. I don't know, man. A.I. Sam's

1185
01:15:08,710 --> 01:15:10,731
not looking good right now. I like A.I. Sam. A.I.

1186
01:15:10,911 --> 01:15:16,555
Sam is... A.I. Sam I am. And so just to

1187
01:15:16,615 --> 01:15:20,558
wind up my technology segment. Do you know what Palantir

1188
01:15:20,658 --> 01:15:26,642
actually does? Well, I don't know what they actually do,

1189
01:15:27,303 --> 01:15:30,365
if there's something behind the scenes, but they're supposed to

1190
01:15:30,445 --> 01:15:35,288
monitor, you know, it's like an intelligence agency almost. Yes.

1191
01:15:36,789 --> 01:15:40,011
Tell me. Okay, so, and this is because I was

1192
01:15:40,111 --> 01:15:44,534
watching another Whitney Webb appearance somewhere. Oh, God. I know.

1193
01:15:45,375 --> 01:15:48,917
Oh, goodness, because she's a Palantir, Peter Thiel, Palantir, Peter

1194
01:15:48,977 --> 01:15:53,701
Thiel. Flock cameras, data centers, all the data centers are

1195
01:15:53,701 --> 01:15:56,623
going to be in a prison. you And so I

1196
01:15:56,743 --> 01:16:00,285
found black cameras. People are getting rid of them. The

1197
01:16:00,285 --> 01:16:03,847
flock cameras are a problem. People are getting rid of

1198
01:16:03,868 --> 01:16:07,090
them. That's because they're misidentifying stuff. Yeah, it's no good.

1199
01:16:08,991 --> 01:16:16,456
So Carp was on Charlie Rose in 2009. And... And

1200
01:16:16,516 --> 01:16:19,838
it's quite interesting to see him because he's kind of

1201
01:16:19,858 --> 01:16:23,461
the same guy. He's not quite as frantic as he

1202
01:16:23,561 --> 01:16:28,064
is now on his recent CNBC appearances. And he comes

1203
01:16:28,104 --> 01:16:31,847
from the humanities, you know, this was not, he wasn't

1204
01:16:31,847 --> 01:16:36,350
a tech guy at all. And after 9-11, you know,

1205
01:16:36,770 --> 01:16:38,851
the big thing was, well, we screwed up because there

1206
01:16:38,871 --> 01:16:42,094
was no integration. We couldn't figure out who was doing

1207
01:16:42,174 --> 01:16:46,497
what. We couldn't sift through the data. And so the

1208
01:16:46,657 --> 01:16:51,080
general consensus, I would say, is that Palantir is just

1209
01:16:51,180 --> 01:16:54,982
a horrible machine that is built to track everybody and

1210
01:16:55,102 --> 01:16:58,024
kill you. That's, I mean, wouldn't you say that's the

1211
01:16:58,125 --> 01:17:01,427
general consensus of what people think of Palantir? I think

1212
01:17:01,507 --> 01:17:04,969
some people think that. Yeah. So, but there's two sides

1213
01:17:05,029 --> 01:17:07,631
of the Palantir system, and that's why they're in so

1214
01:17:07,731 --> 01:17:09,973
many governments. And I thought it was interesting, so I

1215
01:17:10,013 --> 01:17:11,974
have a couple clips here. What we do is we

1216
01:17:12,134 --> 01:17:15,316
use what legal scholars call predicate-based research. So we would

1217
01:17:15,316 --> 01:17:17,598
look at you, and then we would go out and

1218
01:17:17,618 --> 01:17:19,459
say, oh, there's lots of different things in your life

1219
01:17:19,499 --> 01:17:24,242
that may be indicative of someone involved in bad behavior.

1220
01:17:24,823 --> 01:17:27,184
But it would also be very clear, how the government

1221
01:17:27,184 --> 01:17:29,686
looked at you. It wouldn't be a wide net cast

1222
01:17:29,786 --> 01:17:32,228
into a sea of data that brings back all the

1223
01:17:32,288 --> 01:17:35,830
innocent citizens that are touched by that net. It would

1224
01:17:35,830 --> 01:17:40,053
be a very precise operation and each step in that

1225
01:17:40,133 --> 01:17:43,195
operation is documented. So this is what I found interesting.

1226
01:17:43,235 --> 01:17:46,898
The reason why they're so successful is because yes, you

1227
01:17:46,978 --> 01:17:50,060
can use them, you can use the Palantir system to

1228
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:56,064
target someone individually, but the system keeps a complete record

1229
01:17:57,085 --> 01:18:00,567
and I guess it's indisputable, of who used it, when

1230
01:18:00,627 --> 01:18:02,769
it was used, and under what authority it was used.

1231
01:18:02,829 --> 01:18:04,670
So he gives an example here. Okay, but is part

1232
01:18:04,690 --> 01:18:07,091
of your ability to see around the corner then in

1233
01:18:07,172 --> 01:18:10,094
terms of before something, before they take it down, you

1234
01:18:10,154 --> 01:18:13,656
can see patterns of people and or actions and or

1235
01:18:14,296 --> 01:18:17,138
behavior? Well, what we do is we help people like

1236
01:18:17,178 --> 01:18:19,120
we did with the Dalai Lama figure out if you

1237
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,782
actually have been infiltrated. So what kind of data is

1238
01:18:21,842 --> 01:18:24,243
leaving? And they had been. They had been, and in

1239
01:18:24,243 --> 01:18:29,487
a massive way. say, these people are likely to actually

1240
01:18:29,587 --> 01:18:32,529
be this. They appear to be teenagers, but they are

1241
01:18:32,569 --> 01:18:36,752
teenagers that are likely being handled by this organization, or

1242
01:18:37,052 --> 01:18:40,034
they actually are teenagers. Or more likely, when you're done

1243
01:18:40,034 --> 01:18:42,496
with our diagnostic, we say, we are not sure who

1244
01:18:42,576 --> 01:18:44,037
they are, but we are sure they are in this

1245
01:18:44,097 --> 01:18:46,278
building. Why don't you send someone to go find out

1246
01:18:46,298 --> 01:18:48,260
who they are? Why isn't this going to collide head-on

1247
01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:53,043
into privacy and civil liberties? There it is, Charlie Rose.

1248
01:18:53,123 --> 01:18:55,545
When he's not asking about your DNA, he's asking a

1249
01:18:55,685 --> 01:18:58,647
very decent question. Well, it would if there was a

1250
01:18:58,687 --> 01:19:01,729
contradiction between finding terrorists and protecting civil liberties, but the

1251
01:19:01,869 --> 01:19:05,531
exact same transparency you can use to find terrorists, you

1252
01:19:05,591 --> 01:19:08,633
can use to see what the government's using. The central

1253
01:19:08,734 --> 01:19:11,756
question, in my view, of civil liberties is how, it's

1254
01:19:11,816 --> 01:19:13,897
not if the government has data, because let's assume the

1255
01:19:13,917 --> 01:19:15,878
government has as much data as a health insurance company,

1256
01:19:16,159 --> 01:19:18,400
it's how is that data being used? Is it being

1257
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,782
used in a way that's lawful? Meaning, do they have

1258
01:19:20,802 --> 01:19:22,623
the right to use it? And is it being migrated

1259
01:19:22,643 --> 01:19:26,205
into places it's not allowed to be used? We allow

1260
01:19:26,225 --> 01:19:28,647
the enforcement of rules that government ought to enforce. And

1261
01:19:28,667 --> 01:19:30,468
by the way, my experience is they want to enforce

1262
01:19:30,548 --> 01:19:32,089
or at the very least know they need to enforce.

1263
01:19:32,570 --> 01:19:35,131
And if it's framed in that way, then you can

1264
01:19:35,212 --> 01:19:39,434
have what is the ultimate Silicon Valley solution. You remove

1265
01:19:39,454 --> 01:19:42,276
the contradiction and we all march forward. You know, I

1266
01:19:42,336 --> 01:19:44,598
don't know if it's still used that way. 2009 is

1267
01:19:44,598 --> 01:19:48,401
a long time ago. But the general idea is kind

1268
01:19:48,441 --> 01:19:50,962
of good. Like we want to find terrorists, but you

1269
01:19:51,022 --> 01:19:54,925
can't just be pinpointing, tracking every American or any American

1270
01:19:55,025 --> 01:19:59,348
citizen. it you have to go through certain warrant procedures

1271
01:19:59,788 --> 01:19:59,948
and that

1272
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:03,502
That is an audit trail that supposedly the Palantir system

1273
01:20:03,822 --> 01:20:07,765
keeps track of. Well, that's not all that bad, is

1274
01:20:07,885 --> 01:20:13,749
it? I never had that much of an issue with

1275
01:20:13,809 --> 01:20:19,012
Palantir. Yeah, but the Jews... I haven't had an issue

1276
01:20:19,052 --> 01:20:22,275
with the Jews either, or the Muslims for that matter.

1277
01:20:23,335 --> 01:20:26,337
But this is like one of the main things of

1278
01:20:26,478 --> 01:20:29,600
Palantir. When they target people and they kill the wrong

1279
01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:32,261
people and they're doing all the killing, I'm like, this

1280
01:20:32,301 --> 01:20:35,464
doesn't sound right. And it is more flock. Well, flock.

1281
01:20:36,885 --> 01:20:40,827
Where was my Whitney Webb stuff? This is another one.

1282
01:20:40,987 --> 01:20:44,750
Just like Candace Owens, eventually, I think eventually people will

1283
01:20:44,790 --> 01:20:49,593
stop. you know, getting... No. You don't think so? And

1284
01:20:49,773 --> 01:20:55,097
the reason is not because of their deplorable content or

1285
01:20:55,477 --> 01:21:03,883
misinterpretation of facts. Their presentation... Uh... Candace Owens' presentation is

1286
01:21:04,363 --> 01:21:08,226
very superior to almost anybody out there. She's really good

1287
01:21:08,246 --> 01:21:11,948
at presenting it and being convincing. And Whitney Webb, with

1288
01:21:11,989 --> 01:21:18,393
that stupid smirk, she's also a convincer. She has a

1289
01:21:18,473 --> 01:21:22,556
look like she knows something. Even though she's in Chile

1290
01:21:22,716 --> 01:21:25,578
or someplace, she's not even in the country. She was

1291
01:21:25,698 --> 01:21:27,719
on that Jimmy Dore show. Jimmy Dore loves her. I

1292
01:21:27,739 --> 01:21:33,904
think Jimmy Dore just thinks she's hot. And what she's

1293
01:21:34,124 --> 01:21:37,106
saying and the way she says it. I mean, it's

1294
01:21:37,126 --> 01:21:42,049
stuff that we've talked about. 15, 16 years ago. I

1295
01:21:42,689 --> 01:21:46,732
mean, your basic economic hitman stuff. You know, like, okay,

1296
01:21:47,052 --> 01:21:51,195
yeah, well, believe it or not, lots of money flows

1297
01:21:51,255 --> 01:21:55,378
from governments into NGOs, and NGOs go into think tanks,

1298
01:21:55,458 --> 01:21:59,101
and think tanks create policy. That's how it works. We

1299
01:21:59,201 --> 01:22:04,224
know this. Right? Right. You're right. Right. So, but when

1300
01:22:04,304 --> 01:22:08,287
she presents it, it's like, well, wow, I didn't know

1301
01:22:08,347 --> 01:22:11,789
that was happening. That there's this transnational group. So you

1302
01:22:11,809 --> 01:22:16,613
got to use words like transnational. That Epstein was part

1303
01:22:16,913 --> 01:22:18,534
of, but he wasn't. Got to throw in Epstein. Drop

1304
01:22:18,714 --> 01:22:21,216
Epstein. Got to throw in, but he wasn't important in

1305
01:22:21,276 --> 01:22:23,637
the group, you see. The head of it, he's like

1306
01:22:23,677 --> 01:22:28,281
middle management in it at best. And that these people

1307
01:22:28,501 --> 01:22:34,225
exert influences over many governments. And they are not really

1308
01:22:36,726 --> 01:22:40,589
overseen by any national government, nor really loyal to any

1309
01:22:40,729 --> 01:22:46,253
of them. And that they're basically one of the de

1310
01:22:46,313 --> 01:22:50,055
facto ways our world is actually governed, as opposed to

1311
01:22:50,055 --> 01:22:53,938
the public governments that we all know, which have basically

1312
01:22:54,078 --> 01:22:57,240
been reduced to enabling environments for the policies made by

1313
01:22:57,300 --> 01:23:00,122
these other people that are then filtered down through think

1314
01:23:00,202 --> 01:23:04,325
tanks or philanthropic foundations. Think the Gates Foundation, for example.

1315
01:23:04,966 --> 01:23:08,548
Okay, like we didn't know this? I mean, this is

1316
01:23:08,608 --> 01:23:10,830
what gets me. You're right. It's in the presentation. It's

1317
01:23:10,890 --> 01:23:14,452
part of her look. She's got the big glasses on.

1318
01:23:14,552 --> 01:23:19,656
She's got kind of an interesting mouth movement. She usually

1319
01:23:19,696 --> 01:23:22,618
has a look. She has a perpetual smirk. Yeah, a

1320
01:23:22,718 --> 01:23:27,881
little. A knowing, all-knowing smirk, which is like an interesting

1321
01:23:27,961 --> 01:23:32,784
phrase. She has an all-knowing smirk, which sells it. She

1322
01:23:32,865 --> 01:23:40,630
wouldn't be as good on audio. Which is annoying as

1323
01:23:40,690 --> 01:23:43,352
hell, but that doesn't come through on the video so

1324
01:23:43,432 --> 01:23:47,334
much. You don't pay as much attention to the annoying

1325
01:23:47,454 --> 01:23:50,156
voice. But then she throws out stuff like this, which,

1326
01:23:50,176 --> 01:23:54,479
you know, not much of a search to figure out

1327
01:23:54,579 --> 01:23:57,601
what she's really talking about. The way she presents it

1328
01:23:57,742 --> 01:24:00,944
is Owens-esque, I would say. One of the funds that

1329
01:24:01,044 --> 01:24:04,286
Epstein was involved setting up was actually handling money for

1330
01:24:04,346 --> 01:24:09,249
our current Treasury Secretary, Scott Besant. And he refuses to

1331
01:24:09,349 --> 01:24:14,093
release Epstein's Treasury records, even though Congressman Ron Wyden asked

1332
01:24:14,113 --> 01:24:16,774
that they do so. And he introduced the released Epstein

1333
01:24:16,895 --> 01:24:20,517
Treasury Records Act to Congress. Haven't heard very much about

1334
01:24:20,577 --> 01:24:23,099
that lately, but I really hope it passes because people

1335
01:24:23,159 --> 01:24:25,440
deserve to see what was going on there. But I

1336
01:24:25,480 --> 01:24:30,724
have a feeling it won't. And so, you know, these

1337
01:24:30,804 --> 01:24:35,367
financial, these oligarchs that people like Epstein front for are

1338
01:24:35,407 --> 01:24:40,030
not accustomed to ever being, held accountable for anything. So

1339
01:24:40,090 --> 01:24:42,352
Wexner is a good example of that, but I don't

1340
01:24:42,392 --> 01:24:46,435
think it's exclusive to him. So when I hear that,

1341
01:24:46,535 --> 01:24:48,176
you know I'm a fan of Scott Best, and I'm

1342
01:24:48,236 --> 01:24:53,880
like, what? What? Is the gay General Patton hiding something?

1343
01:24:54,940 --> 01:24:59,223
So she says, Besson is blocking Epstein's treasury records with

1344
01:24:59,304 --> 01:25:02,406
a fund that Epstein set up for Scott Besson. Is

1345
01:25:02,446 --> 01:25:03,927
that how you heard it? Because that's what I heard.

1346
01:25:05,408 --> 01:25:07,269
But that's not true at all. Could be. But it's

1347
01:25:07,329 --> 01:25:09,310
not true. I mean, no, it could be that that's

1348
01:25:09,370 --> 01:25:11,552
what she said. One of the funds that Epstein was

1349
01:25:11,612 --> 01:25:14,874
involved setting up was actually handling money for our current

1350
01:25:14,934 --> 01:25:21,319
Treasury Secretary. Okay. Handling money for our current Treasury Secretary.

1351
01:25:21,399 --> 01:25:25,962
Epstein was the money manager for Besant, which seems unlikely.

1352
01:25:25,982 --> 01:25:30,485
Patently untrue. No. There was a Soros fund that was

1353
01:25:30,545 --> 01:25:35,928
50% owned by, what was it? What was the name

1354
01:25:35,948 --> 01:25:41,232
of this one? Uh... So Soros Fund Management, and it

1355
01:25:41,272 --> 01:25:45,895
was the Epstein Southern Trust Company, and they had an

1356
01:25:45,975 --> 01:25:50,999
intelligence research firm called Ergo, and they listed Besant as

1357
01:25:51,099 --> 01:25:55,422
a client working for Soros. That's not quite the same

1358
01:25:55,762 --> 01:26:00,845
as handling Besant's money. You know, so this is bullcrap.

1359
01:26:01,946 --> 01:26:05,148
Yeah. Bull crap. And so then, and then she. Gee,

1360
01:26:05,188 --> 01:26:07,510
there's gambling going on. I know. Bull crap from Whitney

1361
01:26:07,590 --> 01:26:09,812
Webb. And then, but she winds it up with one

1362
01:26:09,852 --> 01:26:14,315
of these. Look at intelligence agencies. Let's take the CIA,

1363
01:26:14,555 --> 01:26:17,977
for example. They serve those same masters. The CIA is

1364
01:26:18,057 --> 01:26:22,380
not the top of the food chain. So, for example,

1365
01:26:22,420 --> 01:26:24,362
if you look at the early coups of the CIA,

1366
01:26:24,402 --> 01:26:29,445
who were they? floor. Well, and he ran in 1954.

1367
01:26:29,485 --> 01:26:33,888
It was for Anglo-American Oil. In Guatemala, it was for

1368
01:26:33,948 --> 01:26:37,110
United Fruit Company. You know, the list goes on. Oh,

1369
01:26:37,230 --> 01:26:42,054
wow. The list goes on. This is like, what? But

1370
01:26:42,114 --> 01:26:43,975
she presents this in a way that is just... Yeah,

1371
01:26:43,975 --> 01:26:46,777
because the United Fruit Company was so important. Yeah, she's

1372
01:26:47,077 --> 01:26:50,459
mesmerized by... People are mesmerized. Glenn Beck is all in

1373
01:26:50,559 --> 01:26:53,101
on her, too. Like, oh, yeah, she's the smartest person

1374
01:26:53,201 --> 01:26:58,545
I know. She's studied everything. No! So is the Kiriakou.

1375
01:26:59,285 --> 01:27:03,508
Well, Kiriaki's spreading himself too thin. At least Whitney Webb,

1376
01:27:03,568 --> 01:27:06,830
you know, kind of stays a little bit exclusive. Yeah,

1377
01:27:06,911 --> 01:27:10,553
no, Kiriakou's out. You know, I should have taken this

1378
01:27:10,653 --> 01:27:15,056
clip, but it was the agency season two is out.

1379
01:27:15,556 --> 01:27:18,258
And there's two agents talking to each other. I'll go

1380
01:27:18,418 --> 01:27:21,300
back and try to find this. And one agent says,

1381
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:25,163
no, what we do for a living is lie. We're

1382
01:27:25,323 --> 01:27:28,905
liars. Yes. Yes. We both lie. I lie. You lie.

1383
01:27:29,286 --> 01:27:32,968
We lie. We lie for a living. We're liars, liars.

1384
01:27:33,008 --> 01:27:35,670
And it goes on and on. And I'm thinking of

1385
01:27:35,750 --> 01:27:40,133
Kiriakou. that piece I did about him lying about the

1386
01:27:40,533 --> 01:27:45,577
refineries in Florida where there are no refineries. These guys,

1387
01:27:45,717 --> 01:27:48,799
they're just full of shit. Yeah. Yeah, they are. Yeah.

1388
01:27:49,339 --> 01:27:52,381
But, you know, podcasting. I'm glad we invented that. It's

1389
01:27:52,462 --> 01:27:58,526
good stuff. Back to that. It's good stuff. It really

1390
01:27:58,606 --> 01:28:02,388
is moving culture forward. Well, talking about podcasting, I want

1391
01:28:02,408 --> 01:28:05,530
to bring in this then. Okay. Because, as you know,

1392
01:28:05,871 --> 01:28:07,912
one of the things the media always used to do.

1393
01:28:08,032 --> 01:28:10,054
And they stopped, they kind of backed off from it

1394
01:28:10,674 --> 01:28:13,836
ever since Elon took over Twitter and called it X,

1395
01:28:14,396 --> 01:28:16,858
but they used to always take, and in Twitter, they

1396
01:28:16,918 --> 01:28:19,800
said this and on Twitter, they said that, right? This

1397
01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:23,182
is a clip from the ABC news, that same July

1398
01:28:23,303 --> 01:28:27,005
10th show and Martha Radnitz going on and on about

1399
01:28:27,065 --> 01:28:32,749
how Trump is having issues with Iran. Radnitz? Radnitz. It's

1400
01:28:32,889 --> 01:28:39,514
Radnitz. Radnitz. Radnitz. Radnitz. She actually looks like her name,

1401
01:28:39,534 --> 01:28:44,137
which is weird. Oh, aptonym. There we go. She's an

1402
01:28:44,257 --> 01:28:50,681
aptonym. So she is rambling, rambling, rambling. And then it

1403
01:28:50,761 --> 01:28:54,784
ends with the Joe Rogan clip. A bombing. The ceasefire

1404
01:28:54,904 --> 01:29:00,268
clearly broken. President Trump saying it's over. The U.S. now

1405
01:29:00,368 --> 01:29:04,431
expanding its targets beyond military, hitting a railroad bridge in

1406
01:29:04,531 --> 01:29:09,474
Iran that Iran quickly repaired. President Trump insists Iran wants

1407
01:29:09,554 --> 01:29:12,816
to make a deal, a claim he's repeated throughout this

1408
01:29:12,956 --> 01:29:20,642
war, now five months long. But Iran instead firing missiles

1409
01:29:20,842 --> 01:29:24,544
and explosive drones at U.S. bases in Bahrain and Kuwait,

1410
01:29:24,965 --> 01:29:28,467
with the U.S. Embassy in Jordan warning all Americans to

1411
01:29:28,587 --> 01:29:33,430
seek cover. Those strikes intercepted, but Iran tightening its grip

1412
01:29:33,631 --> 01:29:36,633
on the Strait of Hormuz. That's causing the cost of

1413
01:29:36,673 --> 01:29:40,235
oil to rise and here at home gas prices, which

1414
01:29:40,275 --> 01:29:43,837
had started to fall during the ceasefire, now ticking back

1415
01:29:44,038 --> 01:29:51,002
up to $3.83 a gallon. Endgame unclear. And Trump supporters

1416
01:29:51,082 --> 01:29:56,086
like podcaster Joe Rogan sounding increasingly dismayed the president led

1417
01:29:56,146 --> 01:29:59,348
the country into this war. Most people are horrified by

1418
01:29:59,408 --> 01:29:59,968
the idea.

1419
01:30:00,340 --> 01:30:04,042
Because Trump was elected, one of the pillars that he

1420
01:30:04,302 --> 01:30:06,884
stood for, apparently, was that he doesn't want any more

1421
01:30:06,964 --> 01:30:12,408
wars. Wow. Random Joe Rogan quote. Are you kidding me?

1422
01:30:12,688 --> 01:30:15,110
That's not Joe Rogan's opinion. He's saying this is what's

1423
01:30:15,150 --> 01:30:20,654
going on. And how did she frame that? Let me

1424
01:30:20,694 --> 01:30:29,059
hear her again. Tonight, the endgame unclear, and Trump supporters

1425
01:30:29,119 --> 01:30:34,103
like podcaster Joe Rogan sounding increasingly dismayed the president led

1426
01:30:34,163 --> 01:30:39,526
the country into this war. That's good. That's good. He's

1427
01:30:39,546 --> 01:30:42,448
just explaining it to someone. Most people are horrified by

1428
01:30:42,448 --> 01:30:44,790
the... Well, I'm just saying you don't have to play

1429
01:30:44,830 --> 01:30:49,233
it. It's like... Can you do better than, I mean,

1430
01:30:49,913 --> 01:30:53,296
going to a podcast and then taking some random clip

1431
01:30:53,436 --> 01:30:57,399
out of context, like you said, is worse than the

1432
01:30:57,539 --> 01:31:01,922
old media taking the Twitter quotes. No, on Twitter they

1433
01:31:02,022 --> 01:31:11,328
said this. Somebody on Twitter said that. So good. Well,

1434
01:31:11,388 --> 01:31:15,131
Rogan's very, you know, he does so much content that

1435
01:31:15,191 --> 01:31:22,756
you can probably clip from him forever. Yes. Let's see,

1436
01:31:23,076 --> 01:31:25,137
what do we have? What do we have? What do

1437
01:31:25,198 --> 01:31:27,419
you have? I have a couple of things. Let's go

1438
01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:30,661
with the... Well, first of all, let's play the... Let's

1439
01:31:30,701 --> 01:31:37,606
keep up with the Iran threats, the BBC story. I

1440
01:31:37,686 --> 01:31:52,716
get that out of the way. What's his name? American

1441
01:31:52,776 --> 01:31:56,199
negotiators will no longer travel there. Kasra Nagy from BBC

1442
01:31:56,359 --> 01:32:00,742
Persian reports. The Supreme Leader's statement stops just short of

1443
01:32:00,842 --> 01:32:05,305
a full-scale fatwa or religious edict. It's a call for

1444
01:32:05,385 --> 01:32:08,727
the assassination of the leaders of the United States and

1445
01:32:08,867 --> 01:32:13,410
Israel. The two leaders colluded in an Israeli bombardment of

1446
01:32:13,430 --> 01:32:17,373
the former leader's residence in central Tehran at the start

1447
01:32:17,493 --> 01:32:21,236
of the war more than four months ago. The hardening

1448
01:32:21,376 --> 01:32:24,558
of Iran's position comes on the day the United States

1449
01:32:24,858 --> 01:32:28,641
has set as a deadline for Iran to commit to

1450
01:32:28,721 --> 01:32:34,064
guaranteeing freedom of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. tit

1451
01:32:34,125 --> 01:32:38,768
for tat Yeah. That's what it kind of sounds like.

1452
01:32:39,088 --> 01:32:41,229
But that brings us to the British thing again that

1453
01:32:41,269 --> 01:32:43,611
we talk about on this show quite a bit. Their

1454
01:32:43,631 --> 01:32:48,875
control of kind of a... work the scene let's call

1455
01:32:48,975 --> 01:32:51,416
it and that which brings me to this clip which

1456
01:32:51,516 --> 01:32:53,798
is of you know we haven't talked about the earthquake

1457
01:32:53,838 --> 01:32:56,820
in venezuela there's nothing really to deconstruct it's just news

1458
01:32:57,480 --> 01:32:59,902
but there was a little tidbit on one of these

1459
01:33:00,042 --> 01:33:03,244
reports oh yes i have here yes and you have

1460
01:33:03,244 --> 01:33:07,207
to another bbc report listen to this this is venezuela

1461
01:33:07,367 --> 01:33:10,249
yeah i i i'm glad you got this one venezuela's

1462
01:33:10,309 --> 01:33:13,351
government has called for the release of frozen assets to

1463
01:33:13,431 --> 01:33:18,915
help raise funds for its post-earthquake recovery President Delcy Rodriguez

1464
01:33:18,935 --> 01:33:22,037
has said she had written to King Charles asking him

1465
01:33:22,137 --> 01:33:26,080
to secure the release of about 30 tons of Venezuelan

1466
01:33:26,180 --> 01:33:30,203
gold held by the Bank of England under UK sanctions.

1467
01:33:30,263 --> 01:33:31,744
Oh, yeah. No, we're not going to give it to

1468
01:33:31,764 --> 01:33:40,870
you. 30 tons? 30 tons? How much is that? Somebody

1469
01:33:41,050 --> 01:33:43,051
out there should do the calculation for us. Well, hold

1470
01:33:43,152 --> 01:33:47,675
on a second. The robot. At $4,000 an ounce. Let's

1471
01:33:47,755 --> 01:33:50,156
just ask the robot. 30 tons. Let's just ask the

1472
01:33:50,196 --> 01:33:53,519
robot. And now is that British tons or American tons?

1473
01:33:53,559 --> 01:33:56,000
Is there a difference? Who cares? Okay. It's a big

1474
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,243
number. Book of knowledge. What is the dollar value of

1475
01:33:59,383 --> 01:34:03,626
30 tons of gold? Let's see if we can do

1476
01:34:03,726 --> 01:34:07,788
a calculation. Well, of course. He's a robot. thinking hard

1477
01:34:07,888 --> 01:34:10,110
though it's tough here we go according to the book

1478
01:34:10,190 --> 01:34:14,013
of knowledge as of this very day gold is priced

1479
01:34:14,073 --> 01:34:20,977
at 4,121.95 per troy ounce. And since one metric ton

1480
01:34:21,158 --> 01:34:27,662
contains 32,150.7 troy ounces, 30 tons of gold is worth

1481
01:34:27,802 --> 01:34:34,066
approximately $3.97 billion. Oh, that's not bad. That's not that

1482
01:34:34,166 --> 01:34:38,910
much. Yeah, you'd be surprised. It's not that much. There's

1483
01:34:38,930 --> 01:34:42,292
entire days when I'm like, I dropped $4 billion. Well,

1484
01:34:42,332 --> 01:34:44,914
I'll just leave it there. too much trouble to bend

1485
01:34:45,074 --> 01:34:50,017
over. That's quite a lot of money. They need it.

1486
01:34:50,037 --> 01:34:52,879
They need the money. But it's under British sanctions. That's

1487
01:34:52,939 --> 01:34:58,083
interesting. Yeah, I found that peculiar. Wait a minute, so

1488
01:34:58,183 --> 01:35:00,504
I see you have the pilot jumps from plane story,

1489
01:35:00,564 --> 01:35:02,706
you have the full story? Yeah, do you want to

1490
01:35:02,766 --> 01:35:04,527
hear it? Yeah, of course, I'm a pilot, I want

1491
01:35:04,547 --> 01:35:07,029
to know. We turn to a horrific story now emerging,

1492
01:35:07,049 --> 01:35:10,231
the shocking moments on a plane, an instructor jumping from

1493
01:35:10,251 --> 01:35:13,013
the plane, leaving his young student to land the plane

1494
01:35:13,053 --> 01:35:15,955
on her own, how she saved her own life. Here's

1495
01:35:15,975 --> 01:35:19,437
Victor Akendo tonight. Tonight, the frightening incident for a student

1496
01:35:19,497 --> 01:35:23,200
pilot in Argentina, forced to land a Cessna 150 during

1497
01:35:23,260 --> 01:35:28,263
a training exercise instructor jumped to his death midair. Authorities

1498
01:35:28,303 --> 01:35:31,746
say 42-year-old Leandro Bertazzo had been working as a flight

1499
01:35:31,786 --> 01:35:35,948
instructor since 2022. On Saturday, the student taking off with

1500
01:35:35,988 --> 01:35:39,831
Bertazzo from the Flying Parrot Cordoba School. An official from

1501
01:35:39,851 --> 01:35:43,093
the flight school telling ABC News, the instructor told the

1502
01:35:43,093 --> 01:35:46,115
student, you know what to do. Then he unbuckled his

1503
01:35:46,175 --> 01:35:49,158
seatbelt, opened the door, and jumped out of the plane.

1504
01:35:49,418 --> 01:35:52,740
This was a remarkable breach of trust between an instructor

1505
01:35:52,800 --> 01:35:55,942
and a student putting her in a very dangerous situation.

1506
01:35:56,402 --> 01:35:59,785
The 22-year-old student alerting the flight school and managing to

1507
01:35:59,885 --> 01:36:02,907
land the plane safely. The student actually had her license.

1508
01:36:02,947 --> 01:36:04,928
She just didn't have the number of hours that were

1509
01:36:04,968 --> 01:36:08,911
required to use that license. Police locating Bertazzo's body in

1510
01:36:08,971 --> 01:36:12,373
the Toledo district around 6 p.m. According to a school

1511
01:36:12,433 --> 01:36:15,696
official, Bertazzo's family says the pilot had gone to see

1512
01:36:15,736 --> 01:36:20,019
a psychiatrist last week. Okay, a couple things. That's the

1513
01:36:20,099 --> 01:36:23,661
kicker, by the way. He went to see a psychiatrist.

1514
01:36:24,321 --> 01:36:27,684
There's a lot of mental health issues in aviation which

1515
01:36:27,744 --> 01:36:31,326
go unreported because, you know, you will not be flying.

1516
01:36:32,267 --> 01:36:34,348
The second thing that I'm surprised it wasn't in this

1517
01:36:34,368 --> 01:36:36,450
report, that this was actually marked up as a COVID

1518
01:36:36,530 --> 01:36:43,414
death. I'm surprised they didn't mention that. Yes. That's good.

1519
01:36:43,595 --> 01:36:46,717
Yeah, there you go. It's kind of a callback joke,

1520
01:36:46,757 --> 01:36:49,959
though. Yeah, it's an old one. So the president, he

1521
01:36:50,039 --> 01:36:54,422
says the most interesting thing sometimes. uh and whenever he

1522
01:36:54,442 --> 01:36:57,244
says we're looking at something very strongly which is just

1523
01:36:58,385 --> 01:37:02,788
Just a weird English structure. I always pay attention. And

1524
01:37:02,848 --> 01:37:07,611
I made reference today that Australia has a... thing going

1525
01:37:07,651 --> 01:37:10,053
that's very good. It's really worked out very well. We

1526
01:37:10,113 --> 01:37:12,214
have good respect for Australia and that has to do

1527
01:37:12,274 --> 01:37:15,596
with people that are working people and it's something that

1528
01:37:15,676 --> 01:37:19,059
also does puts them in much better shape when they're

1529
01:37:20,079 --> 01:37:23,142
retirement age. So we're going to do that. We're looking

1530
01:37:23,222 --> 01:37:25,843
at that very strongly. We're going to be taking that

1531
01:37:25,883 --> 01:37:28,926
and we're going to be maybe making it a little

1532
01:37:28,966 --> 01:37:32,208
bit sharper, a little bit even better, but we're going

1533
01:37:32,208 --> 01:37:34,990
to be doing that. And Scott, you're working on that

1534
01:37:35,050 --> 01:37:39,273
immediately, right? You and the whole group, Howard, everybody. So

1535
01:37:39,373 --> 01:37:41,614
I hear this and I'm thinking, okay, are we doing

1536
01:37:41,694 --> 01:37:45,517
something to replace social security, which I think by definition

1537
01:37:45,537 --> 01:37:47,718
almost has no money. It's not never been really been

1538
01:37:47,798 --> 01:37:51,881
funded, just the general account. Are you familiar with the

1539
01:37:52,081 --> 01:37:57,265
Australian system? No. So I went to Sky News, who,

1540
01:37:57,645 --> 01:37:59,766
of course, picked up on the story. I want to

1541
01:37:59,807 --> 01:38:03,189
get to another policy issue where President Donald Trump is

1542
01:38:03,269 --> 01:38:07,352
talking about emulating in Australia. In Australia, we have compulsory

1543
01:38:07,832 --> 01:38:10,814
superannuation. It's been in place for about 40 to 50

1544
01:38:10,894 --> 01:38:13,396
years. A Labour or leftist government brought it in. But

1545
01:38:14,176 --> 01:38:17,419
10% or so of our salary is compulsorily put into

1546
01:38:17,819 --> 01:38:20,661
retirement savings. And here's the president. He thinks he might

1547
01:38:20,701 --> 01:38:25,144
follow suit. And I made reference today that Australia has

1548
01:38:25,344 --> 01:38:29,487
a... thing going that's very good. It's really worked out

1549
01:38:29,567 --> 01:38:31,888
very well. We have good respect for Australia and that

1550
01:38:31,948 --> 01:38:35,051
has to do with people that are working people and

1551
01:38:35,111 --> 01:38:38,413
it's something that also does puts them in much better

1552
01:38:38,473 --> 01:38:42,516
shape when they're retirement age. So we're going to do

1553
01:38:42,556 --> 01:38:45,117
that. We're looking at that very strongly. Yeah, well, there

1554
01:38:45,157 --> 01:38:48,059
you go. This is not as straightforward as it seems.

1555
01:38:48,159 --> 01:38:51,282
For instance, in Australia, people struggle, young people struggle to

1556
01:38:51,342 --> 01:38:54,064
save a deposit to get into the housing market because

1557
01:38:54,104 --> 01:38:58,366
10% of their incomes go into super. This scheme massively

1558
01:38:58,426 --> 01:39:01,088
boosts the power of the unions. And so far, at

1559
01:39:01,108 --> 01:39:03,390
least, it hasn't really seen governments save a lot of

1560
01:39:03,430 --> 01:39:05,972
money when it comes to age pensions and the like,

1561
01:39:06,012 --> 01:39:09,074
Kristen. So I think what, because I did look this

1562
01:39:09,234 --> 01:39:15,578
up, It's a compulsory superannuation. So employers put a mandated

1563
01:39:15,658 --> 01:39:18,420
share of wages, which I think is closer to 12%

1564
01:39:18,460 --> 01:39:23,444
than 10%, into each worker's private, individually owned investment fund.

1565
01:39:24,024 --> 01:39:25,765
And that's, I think, why Trump likes it. He's like,

1566
01:39:25,805 --> 01:39:28,607
well, if you just put money into the S&P 500,

1567
01:39:29,228 --> 01:39:32,270
you know, over time, that'll, of course, all money devalues,

1568
01:39:32,310 --> 01:39:34,831
but over time, that's going to be a winner for

1569
01:39:34,911 --> 01:39:38,614
you, for you personally, unlike Social Security, which is just

1570
01:39:38,714 --> 01:39:42,677
a big loser for everybody. You know, and that's why

1571
01:39:42,697 --> 01:39:44,398
I said, Scott, you're going to work on that, aren't

1572
01:39:44,418 --> 01:39:49,141
you? Yes, boss. change it a little bit. But that

1573
01:39:49,161 --> 01:39:56,806
could be interesting. It's not going anywhere. Why not? You

1574
01:39:56,846 --> 01:39:58,728
don't like the idea? They're talking the big game about

1575
01:39:58,748 --> 01:39:59,788
this. Social Security is...

1576
01:40:01,460 --> 01:40:06,724
sacrosanct, to use a word. to use an important word.

1577
01:40:06,904 --> 01:40:09,786
Yeah, big word. No, not going to happen. That's because

1578
01:40:09,846 --> 01:40:15,010
you depend on it. Without your Social Security, this podcast

1579
01:40:15,070 --> 01:40:17,151
would not be able to keep... Yeah, well, there's that.

1580
01:40:17,652 --> 01:40:21,374
But beside the point, it's like, you know, it already

1581
01:40:21,474 --> 01:40:24,116
is compulsory and it shouldn't be... You know, the fact

1582
01:40:24,136 --> 01:40:27,958
that it's mixed with the general fund is technically illegal.

1583
01:40:27,979 --> 01:40:32,922
It's supposed to be a standalone insurance that has been

1584
01:40:32,982 --> 01:40:38,346
collected and collected and collected. and it's been mixed with

1585
01:40:38,366 --> 01:40:41,428
the other. It's been stolen from, basically, the Social Security.

1586
01:40:41,868 --> 01:40:43,429
If it's going to go broke, it's not because it's

1587
01:40:43,429 --> 01:40:47,132
really going broke. It's because they've stolen the money. Yes.

1588
01:40:48,332 --> 01:40:51,795
Yes, exactly. And so now they're looking for an out.

1589
01:40:52,755 --> 01:40:54,397
Oh, God, we stole the money. Now what are we

1590
01:40:54,437 --> 01:40:55,998
going to do? We can't put the money back. We

1591
01:40:56,038 --> 01:41:00,401
haven't got anything. Seems like Trump is just, you know,

1592
01:41:00,521 --> 01:41:04,824
trying to. Well, Trump is. Well, he thinks like an

1593
01:41:04,904 --> 01:41:09,467
investor. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But, you know, public

1594
01:41:09,527 --> 01:41:11,188
doesn't think that way. I mean, that's why he's giving

1595
01:41:11,188 --> 01:41:15,411
all the new babies $1,000. Yes, I like that. And

1596
01:41:15,451 --> 01:41:20,895
if my grandbaby ever comes... She hasn't told tomorrow morning

1597
01:41:20,975 --> 01:41:22,696
10 a.m. And then we really have to get on

1598
01:41:22,776 --> 01:41:24,597
the plane. I've been in a hotel room for two

1599
01:41:24,697 --> 01:41:28,220
weeks. I'm a little tired of it. And Christina's tired

1600
01:41:28,280 --> 01:41:30,501
of it. But this could be another week or two.

1601
01:41:32,462 --> 01:41:35,825
As Mimi said to me. Yes. Didn't they know that

1602
01:41:35,945 --> 01:41:39,207
all first babies are two weeks late at least? Yeah.

1603
01:41:39,247 --> 01:41:42,910
Yeah, we do. Oh, you did know. Yeah, I knew

1604
01:41:42,970 --> 01:41:45,031
that. But we had to be here for my mom's

1605
01:41:45,051 --> 01:41:48,133
memorial. I can't stay here for a month. Oh, I

1606
01:41:48,233 --> 01:41:51,876
see what you say. You're just trying to do two

1607
01:41:51,956 --> 01:41:54,938
birds with one stone here. Big mistake. Hoping for the

1608
01:41:55,058 --> 01:42:00,261
best. Yes, exactly. Ideally. So what's going to happen is

1609
01:42:00,522 --> 01:42:03,684
unless she goes into labor tonight, obviously, then we delay

1610
01:42:04,224 --> 01:42:06,065
our return. We're going to have to come back in

1611
01:42:06,166 --> 01:42:08,047
August when the baby's here, which will also be fun.

1612
01:42:11,589 --> 01:42:14,851
thing for a couple days. So I put out a

1613
01:42:15,011 --> 01:42:18,034
challenge to No Agenda Nation on the last show. Do

1614
01:42:18,054 --> 01:42:24,578
you recall the challenge? No. That at least somebody. One

1615
01:42:24,638 --> 01:42:30,082
of our people would have to be a Patriot Front

1616
01:42:30,202 --> 01:42:36,586
member or know about them. And I only received one

1617
01:42:36,826 --> 01:42:41,149
email from Sir Rocketman, Ed Laboutier. Yeah, very long email.

1618
01:42:41,390 --> 01:42:44,031
But he says he's not a Patriot Front member. He

1619
01:42:44,111 --> 01:42:47,954
knows many of them. He believes it's a legitimate organization.

1620
01:42:48,034 --> 01:42:54,018
He likes the Patriot Front's American nationalism approach. The reason

1621
01:42:54,098 --> 01:42:57,380
for the masks is to avoid doxing. It makes the

1622
01:42:57,460 --> 01:43:01,363
focus on the body of marches instead of individuals. I'm

1623
01:43:01,423 --> 01:43:07,747
thinking. He knows, but he hasn't joined. But no one

1624
01:43:07,807 --> 01:43:12,591
else, nothing at all. And then this Roswell Encina dude

1625
01:43:13,091 --> 01:43:15,573
who works for the National Archives, he's doing the rounds

1626
01:43:15,673 --> 01:43:18,815
now. So he wasn't just on CNN for that one

1627
01:43:18,875 --> 01:43:22,457
appearance. Oh, no. Oh, no, he's on PBS. So now

1628
01:43:22,598 --> 01:43:25,580
I'm more convinced than ever that this is definitely some

1629
01:43:25,700 --> 01:43:28,782
form of an op, whether the participants are willing or

1630
01:43:28,842 --> 01:43:31,163
not. Listen to this. But one set of images has

1631
01:43:31,243 --> 01:43:35,126
drawn attention for a very different reason. They show hundreds

1632
01:43:35,326 --> 01:43:38,829
of masked, uniformed men marching through parts of Washington on

1633
01:43:38,889 --> 01:43:41,591
the morning of the 4th of July. The men are

1634
01:43:41,611 --> 01:43:45,573
members of Patriot Front. That's a white supremacist group formed

1635
01:43:45,633 --> 01:43:49,076
in the aftermath of the 2017 Unite the Right rally

1636
01:43:49,156 --> 01:43:54,619
in Charlottesville, Virginia. Nice positioning. Nowhere do they say they're

1637
01:43:54,659 --> 01:43:57,982
white supremacists or hate black people anywhere. I don't think

1638
01:43:58,022 --> 01:44:00,904
they've said that, but okay, that's what you say, PBS.

1639
01:44:01,344 --> 01:44:04,866
Images of members of the group riding metro trains alongside

1640
01:44:04,966 --> 01:44:09,149
other passengers have since gone viral. Amna Nawaz spoke earlier

1641
01:44:09,229 --> 01:44:12,972
with one of those passengers. Roswell Encino was on the

1642
01:44:13,012 --> 01:44:16,194
DC Metro headed to an Independence Day celebration in Maryland

1643
01:44:16,294 --> 01:44:19,196
on July 4th. What kind of name is Roswell Encino,

1644
01:44:19,316 --> 01:44:27,002
by the way? That's kind of a... I'm Roswell. Roswell

1645
01:44:27,061 --> 01:45:01,385
Encino is a pseudonym. Yeah, spook name. are these people?

1646
01:45:01,545 --> 01:45:04,167
What are their intentions? What are they going to do

1647
01:45:04,647 --> 01:45:08,610
in the Metro? So I kind of you know, kind

1648
01:45:08,670 --> 01:45:11,192
of made myself smaller. When you look at that photo

1649
01:45:11,392 --> 01:45:13,673
now, what goes through your mind? What goes through your

1650
01:45:13,733 --> 01:45:15,755
mind? I mean, I still have a hard time looking

1651
01:45:15,775 --> 01:45:18,396
at myself in that photo. It's because, you know, people

1652
01:45:18,457 --> 01:45:20,638
take photographs of you when you're smiling, when you're happy,

1653
01:45:20,858 --> 01:45:23,520
maybe when you're sad or excited, but you never see

1654
01:45:23,540 --> 01:45:27,143
yourself when you're scared. But I'm really hoping, you know,

1655
01:45:27,182 --> 01:45:29,624
when people see my photo, most importantly, the photo of

1656
01:45:29,644 --> 01:45:33,086
that African-American woman who was also surrounded by them, that

1657
01:45:33,167 --> 01:45:35,768
they understand that we have our stories too, and our

1658
01:45:35,808 --> 01:45:38,110
stories are part of the nation. And that we're all

1659
01:45:38,230 --> 01:45:42,893
part of this United States. You're sitting in a seat

1660
01:45:43,053 --> 01:45:47,076
on a metro. So what? Part of the story. Did

1661
01:45:47,136 --> 01:45:51,359
anyone say anything to you? Did they threaten you? No,

1662
01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,821
this guy is liking this way too much. Is he

1663
01:45:54,661 --> 01:45:58,344
a white guy? Oh, yeah. Well then what's he worried

1664
01:45:58,404 --> 01:46:00,665
about if it's a white supremacist group? Maybe he was

1665
01:46:00,745 --> 01:46:04,308
brown. I can't, I don't know. He didn't seem like

1666
01:46:04,808 --> 01:46:09,571
a minority. Well, what's his name again? Roswell Encino? Encina.

1667
01:46:10,272 --> 01:46:15,075
Roswell Encina. Well, that's kind of a Hispanic-sounding last name.

1668
01:46:15,415 --> 01:46:20,659
So the black woman... Now, I'm not sure this is

1669
01:46:20,899 --> 01:46:26,703
true because it's X, but supposedly she was like squatting

1670
01:46:26,803 --> 01:46:29,465
or lifting up her dress before they came on. There

1671
01:46:29,485 --> 01:46:31,887
was video of that. It may be someone else. I

1672
01:46:31,947 --> 01:46:36,130
don't know. That that started happening almost immediately. Oh, yeah,

1673
01:46:36,230 --> 01:46:37,891
look what who look what she was doing. I don't

1674
01:46:37,951 --> 01:46:42,514
know But here is PBS's take on the black woman

1675
01:46:42,594 --> 01:46:44,795
There were those other photos as you mentioned there was

1676
01:46:44,916 --> 01:46:47,077
one of a black man on a metro train black

1677
01:46:47,197 --> 01:46:51,540
man This guy I'm looking at him. He's he is

1678
01:46:52,180 --> 01:46:54,822
Probably some sort of I don't know what kind of

1679
01:46:54,842 --> 01:46:59,205
Hispanic but it's extremely gay. Well, yes if you look

1680
01:46:59,265 --> 01:47:03,248
at his photos, it's I'm sorry, it's so obvious but

1681
01:47:04,109 --> 01:47:06,850
I could kind of tell by the voice. Well, you

1682
01:47:06,911 --> 01:47:08,952
could tell. If you see his photos, you go, okay.

1683
01:47:09,612 --> 01:47:14,015
Yeah, he's very... Very gay. I don't think they're anti-gay.

1684
01:47:14,195 --> 01:47:16,057
I don't think they've ever said we don't like them.

1685
01:47:16,077 --> 01:47:21,480
I don't think they don't seem anti-anything. No. Pro-American. Pro-something.

1686
01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:23,262
Here we go. There were those other photos, as you

1687
01:47:23,402 --> 01:47:25,643
mentioned. There was one of a black man on a

1688
01:47:25,683 --> 01:47:28,785
metro train ride, also surrounded by members of that Patriot

1689
01:47:28,845 --> 01:47:31,207
Front. The black woman who you mentioned, who's since been

1690
01:47:31,247 --> 01:47:34,409
identified by her family as Bernita Boulding. And I need

1691
01:47:34,429 --> 01:47:36,611
to ask you about this, because since she was identified,

1692
01:47:36,611 --> 01:47:39,993
there has been a real wave of some very ugly,

1693
01:47:40,473 --> 01:47:45,037
some racist comments. about her and that photo. Have you

1694
01:47:45,137 --> 01:47:48,159
seen anything similar? And do you worry about the response

1695
01:47:48,239 --> 01:47:50,620
now that you're out speaking publicly about it? Sadly, yes.

1696
01:47:50,921 --> 01:47:52,922
I can't help but see the comments towards me, the

1697
01:47:52,962 --> 01:47:55,944
comments towards her, and it's very discouraging. Some of them

1698
01:47:55,944 --> 01:47:58,406
are like, well, they didn't touch him. You know, they

1699
01:47:58,446 --> 01:48:01,568
left him alone. You know, he wasn't bullied physically. It's

1700
01:48:01,688 --> 01:48:03,829
hard to understand what a person of color goes through

1701
01:48:03,829 --> 01:48:05,911
in this country, especially when you're by yourself in a

1702
01:48:05,971 --> 01:48:09,773
contained space and that position you're put in and not

1703
01:48:09,873 --> 01:48:12,355
knowing what's going to happen next. And that's how we

1704
01:48:12,415 --> 01:48:17,278
felt. Yeah, this is... this is so oppy the way

1705
01:48:17,338 --> 01:48:24,083
this sounds. Yeah. All right, one more. It's in your

1706
01:48:24,103 --> 01:48:26,164
work now. You were at the Library of Congress before

1707
01:48:26,225 --> 01:48:29,547
that. You know better than anyone the First Amendment protects

1708
01:48:29,767 --> 01:48:32,529
your right to say what's on your mind and their

1709
01:48:32,589 --> 01:48:34,810
right to gather peacefully as they did on that day

1710
01:48:34,890 --> 01:48:37,352
and say what's on theirs. How do you think about

1711
01:48:37,372 --> 01:48:41,435
that? It's very complex. I'm hoping when people look at

1712
01:48:41,475 --> 01:48:44,097
our photos or think back on the 4th of July

1713
01:48:44,177 --> 01:48:47,179
in Washington that it starts a dialogue. It starts a

1714
01:48:47,219 --> 01:48:50,281
conversation, which is part of democracy. I really think that

1715
01:48:50,381 --> 01:48:54,204
really will help us understand each other. always had disagreements.

1716
01:48:54,484 --> 01:48:56,705
However, we've always found a way to move forward. You

1717
01:48:56,745 --> 01:48:58,827
know, there's been a lot of talk clearly because it's

1718
01:48:58,827 --> 01:49:01,389
been the 4th of July of the Declaration of Independence

1719
01:49:01,469 --> 01:49:03,970
and that all men are created equal. And when you

1720
01:49:04,090 --> 01:49:06,932
think of that, you know, that declaration that Thomas Jefferson

1721
01:49:07,012 --> 01:49:11,475
wrote 250 years ago, nowadays it feels more like a,

1722
01:49:11,836 --> 01:49:15,498
you know, a mission statement that I feel like each

1723
01:49:15,618 --> 01:49:18,320
generation has done their part to try to achieve it.

1724
01:49:18,700 --> 01:49:21,462
You know, from, you know, women's suffrage to the 13th

1725
01:49:21,482 --> 01:49:24,384
Amendment to landmark legislation like the Voting Rights Act and

1726
01:49:24,404 --> 01:49:27,967
the Civil Rights Act to LGBTQ rights nowadays. I think

1727
01:49:28,087 --> 01:49:31,509
we've all, each generation has played their part to make

1728
01:49:31,549 --> 01:49:36,793
that a reality. rights. Yes, Thomas Jefferson wrote about the

1729
01:49:36,873 --> 01:49:42,877
LGBTQ rights. Yeah, so since we did not receive anything,

1730
01:49:43,057 --> 01:49:45,058
I'm just going to have to continue to think that

1731
01:49:45,078 --> 01:49:47,140
this is some form of an op. And maybe these

1732
01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:49,361
guys don't even know it, but they're being used as

1733
01:49:49,521 --> 01:49:56,186
one, that's for sure. I agree. Yeah. And then Marco

1734
01:49:56,306 --> 01:49:59,948
Rubio, our next president. He had the very...

1735
01:50:00,120 --> 01:50:05,663
brief, very good statement about America and about everyone's obsession

1736
01:50:05,743 --> 01:50:10,807
with politics. I think politics has made us crazy. Everybody

1737
01:50:10,847 --> 01:50:14,790
in this country has lost their minds on politics. And

1738
01:50:14,830 --> 01:50:19,092
we have forgotten that America is not a government. America's

1739
01:50:19,132 --> 01:50:22,915
not a president. America's not a Congress. Let me tell

1740
01:50:22,935 --> 01:50:26,478
you what America is. America's your family. America's your faith.

1741
01:50:26,558 --> 01:50:30,300
America's your community. That's America. That's what our adversaries don't

1742
01:50:30,340 --> 01:50:33,342
understand, and that's what we need to remember. That is

1743
01:50:33,382 --> 01:50:35,404
how we're going to rebuild this country and turn the

1744
01:50:35,444 --> 01:50:38,326
page and have a future even brighter than our past.

1745
01:50:39,086 --> 01:50:41,127
And so that's why I feel so strongly about this.

1746
01:50:41,228 --> 01:50:46,831
Amen, Brother Marco. This is a presidential-style speech. Absolutely. That

1747
01:50:46,931 --> 01:50:51,515
is bullcrap. practicing he's doing a good job I like

1748
01:50:51,535 --> 01:50:53,636
it oh he's great I think I agree I think

1749
01:50:53,656 --> 01:50:56,438
he's gonna be the one he's good he's perfectly good

1750
01:50:56,598 --> 01:51:01,081
I mean everyone's there's a group that wants Vance Yeah.

1751
01:51:01,381 --> 01:51:05,624
Nah, we don't. I don't think Vance is getting... Only

1752
01:51:05,704 --> 01:51:08,386
if he becomes Fat JD. Then he would be great.

1753
01:51:08,586 --> 01:51:11,908
And dances a lot. And dances. Hey, did you see

1754
01:51:14,230 --> 01:51:18,753
Nick? Your boy Nick who's for Boateng in California? The

1755
01:51:19,013 --> 01:51:23,016
YouTuber? What's his name? Fuentes? No, no, no, no. Nick.

1756
01:51:23,316 --> 01:51:29,300
Nick, the guy... Oh, Nick Shirley. Nick Shirley. Yeah. Okay,

1757
01:51:29,340 --> 01:51:33,883
so we already thought that this was... of this Nick

1758
01:51:34,004 --> 01:51:36,645
Shirley because there's always a dude next to him. There's

1759
01:51:36,725 --> 01:51:41,529
something screwy about it. Bob or Dave. And Bob has

1760
01:51:41,629 --> 01:51:44,471
all the paperwork and Dave knows exactly where to go.

1761
01:51:44,891 --> 01:51:46,772
And then Nick Shirley goes in and says, I'm just

1762
01:51:46,852 --> 01:51:51,496
asking questions. Well, he was out in New York with

1763
01:51:51,555 --> 01:51:54,978
Dr. Oz. This is the war I fought, the likes

1764
01:51:55,078 --> 01:51:57,880
of which you have never seen. I feel like Johnny

1765
01:51:57,960 --> 01:52:01,382
Cash. I've been everywhere, man. I've been to California, Iowa,

1766
01:52:01,482 --> 01:52:05,685
Ohio, Minnesota, today New York City, Washington, Queens. We take

1767
01:52:05,685 --> 01:52:08,787
you to the front lines wherever we're going. Here, social

1768
01:52:08,827 --> 01:52:11,469
adult daycare centers, the biggest fraud you've never heard of.

1769
01:52:12,330 --> 01:52:13,751
I walk through here and I wonder, how is it

1770
01:52:13,831 --> 01:52:17,813
possible? that you would have this many pharmacies in such

1771
01:52:17,893 --> 01:52:20,455
close proximity to each other. We're going to start counting.

1772
01:52:20,495 --> 01:52:22,957
Are you ready? Yeah. Okay. So we got one here.

1773
01:52:22,997 --> 01:52:27,900
One right there. Number two. Look at this. It's the

1774
01:52:27,960 --> 01:52:29,982
durable medical equipment supplier. Those are all the things they

1775
01:52:30,062 --> 01:52:33,764
sell. Wheelchairs and automatic scooters. These are expensive. Then we

1776
01:52:33,844 --> 01:52:39,048
have another pharmacy. Another pharmacy. I'm losing track. It's like

1777
01:52:39,048 --> 01:52:41,109
a game show. You get a pharmacy. You get a

1778
01:52:41,149 --> 01:52:44,752
pharmacy. So now they just throw the guy. You know

1779
01:52:44,812 --> 01:52:47,894
what? Bob and Dave, good job. Just take Oz. Take

1780
01:52:47,954 --> 01:52:50,256
Oz out. This will be good. And then they go

1781
01:52:50,376 --> 01:52:55,499
past all these Chinese pharmacies. and cash only, it's all

1782
01:52:55,539 --> 01:53:00,523
kinds. Like... Is everyone just co-opted? You know, this is

1783
01:53:00,863 --> 01:53:03,625
fine and dandy. I hate to mention this, but Oz

1784
01:53:03,705 --> 01:53:07,187
is part of the government. Why doesn't he do something

1785
01:53:07,287 --> 01:53:09,789
about this? Well, he says... Instead of going out with

1786
01:53:09,889 --> 01:53:12,771
Nick Shirley and bitching about it. Well, he said something

1787
01:53:12,851 --> 01:53:16,093
about it here. This business entity, this social adult daycare

1788
01:53:16,093 --> 01:53:19,415
center, which I'm pretty sure many of your... Adult daycare

1789
01:53:19,495 --> 01:53:51,237
center? How can I get in on that? The idea,

1790
01:53:51,297 --> 01:53:53,519
the fraud, is starting to spread. If you're a fraudster,

1791
01:53:53,819 --> 01:53:57,441
run. Because we are coming after you. Yeah, I'm with

1792
01:53:57,501 --> 01:53:59,623
you. I'm with you, by the way. This was all

1793
01:53:59,703 --> 01:54:03,185
positioning, bravado, and like, well, how come you're not there

1794
01:54:03,546 --> 01:54:06,387
with the SWAT team? Busting in right now. Like, this

1795
01:54:06,467 --> 01:54:11,411
is fraud. None of that. Yeah, they're just floating around

1796
01:54:11,411 --> 01:54:16,574
with the camera. Although, uh... JD Vance going after H-1B

1797
01:54:16,795 --> 01:54:19,977
now. Finally, finally, at least he says so. Now, I

1798
01:54:20,037 --> 01:54:22,979
want to talk about another fraud crackdown, and this is

1799
01:54:23,239 --> 01:54:25,560
almost hard to believe. But, you know, we have a

1800
01:54:25,661 --> 01:54:30,064
program called the H-1B Visa Program. This goes to show

1801
01:54:30,504 --> 01:54:34,627
how broad-based the fraud tax force is. We're fighting for

1802
01:54:34,667 --> 01:54:38,029
your taxpayer money, but we're also making sure that fraudsters

1803
01:54:38,069 --> 01:54:42,092
don't take advantage of these visa programs. Now, why does

1804
01:54:42,132 --> 01:54:46,255
this program exist? program that was set up to ensure

1805
01:54:46,295 --> 01:54:49,397
that if you are a brilliant technology person or a

1806
01:54:49,417 --> 01:54:52,719
brilliant scientist or a brilliant doctor, you could come to

1807
01:54:52,779 --> 01:54:55,681
the United States and get access to this visa program.

1808
01:54:56,001 --> 01:54:58,363
But you know what's happening way too much is that

1809
01:54:58,463 --> 01:55:03,406
big corporations and fraudsters overseas are using this program to

1810
01:55:03,626 --> 01:55:06,989
undercut the wages of American workers. So you know what

1811
01:55:07,049 --> 01:55:10,071
we're doing in the Trump administration? We're saying no more.

1812
01:55:10,531 --> 01:55:12,352
If you were trying to take advantage of that visa

1813
01:55:12,432 --> 01:55:15,074
program, you are not allowed in to the United States

1814
01:55:15,094 --> 01:55:21,859
of America. Today, I'm proud to announce that the Federal

1815
01:55:21,919 --> 01:55:27,663
Department of Labor has started dozens of subpoenas and investigations

1816
01:55:27,823 --> 01:55:31,085
into foreign fraudsters who are trying to take advantage of

1817
01:55:31,165 --> 01:55:36,649
the H-1B visa program. Here's a simple principle, ladies and

1818
01:55:36,689 --> 01:55:41,412
gentlemen. American jobs ought to go to American workers and

1819
01:55:41,492 --> 01:55:44,134
not foreign fraudsters, and the Department of Labor is fighting

1820
01:55:44,174 --> 01:55:46,996
back against it. So that's his version of the presidential

1821
01:55:47,076 --> 01:55:52,700
speech. Marco's about family? No, not at all. Show me

1822
01:55:52,760 --> 01:55:56,422
some results. Well, he hasn't been doing it as long

1823
01:55:56,502 --> 01:56:00,005
as Rubio. But back to the H-1B. When I was

1824
01:56:00,085 --> 01:56:04,408
doing the show Silicon Spin in the 90s, there used

1825
01:56:04,468 --> 01:56:07,890
to be a professor up at Cal Davis. I can't

1826
01:56:07,890 --> 01:56:11,193
remember his name offhand, but he was always moaning about

1827
01:56:11,212 --> 01:56:13,554
the H-1Bs. We had him on, I think, and at

1828
01:56:13,594 --> 01:56:16,916
least we discussed him. This has been going on since

1829
01:56:17,016 --> 01:56:21,620
the 90s. The H-1B, he's claimed it was all mostly

1830
01:56:21,720 --> 01:56:27,363
the real problem was Silicon Valley hiring Indians to do

1831
01:56:27,864 --> 01:56:32,547
jobs. Americans that would get paid too much to do.

1832
01:56:33,027 --> 01:56:36,390
And it was always a way to get cheap labor.

1833
01:56:36,790 --> 01:56:40,272
Yes. It was a roundabout way and it was Silicon

1834
01:56:40,372 --> 01:56:44,435
Valley was the bad actors. Well, that's changing now. Yeah,

1835
01:56:44,575 --> 01:56:48,838
sure. We got... We got... That's changing my ass. Sheriff...

1836
01:56:50,599 --> 01:56:56,563
Sheriff JD on the case. Oh boy. All right. So

1837
01:56:56,623 --> 01:56:59,165
let's talk about the socialists for a second. Oh, yes.

1838
01:56:59,245 --> 01:57:01,547
Let's talk about the socialists. Because you played a clip

1839
01:57:01,607 --> 01:57:04,949
of some socialists yakking about one thing. I got a

1840
01:57:05,029 --> 01:57:10,993
clip, a two-parter, of the socialist chick who comes on.

1841
01:57:11,073 --> 01:57:14,676
And this is the kind of... Which one? Which socialist

1842
01:57:14,756 --> 01:57:18,338
chick? This was the one. This was the infiltrate. There's

1843
01:57:18,358 --> 01:57:22,081
this girl. I can't remember her name. She's a YouTuber

1844
01:57:22,181 --> 01:57:26,264
who does infiltration. Yeah. And she infiltrated. She did a

1845
01:57:26,364 --> 01:57:31,747
webinar or something where they're explaining. A webinar. She infiltrated

1846
01:57:31,807 --> 01:57:35,550
a socialist, Democrat socialist or a PSL, which I'm not

1847
01:57:35,590 --> 01:57:38,832
sure, but something socialist league or something. It was a

1848
01:57:38,872 --> 01:57:42,154
webinar she infiltrated. And I just, I thought these clips

1849
01:57:42,195 --> 01:57:44,536
were kind of nailing what they like to do, what

1850
01:57:44,556 --> 01:57:47,478
they want to do in the future and what their

1851
01:57:47,578 --> 01:57:50,660
ideals are. And I wrote about this in the newsletter.

1852
01:57:51,141 --> 01:57:54,443
This is bull crap. These people are never good. This

1853
01:57:54,543 --> 01:57:57,385
is a bunch of talkers. When I was a kid

1854
01:57:57,465 --> 01:58:01,628
in college, I remember hearing the same stuff. It's all

1855
01:58:01,748 --> 01:58:04,790
revolution, the revolution, we're going to have revolution. There's no

1856
01:58:04,970 --> 01:58:08,593
revolution. Yes, comrade. It's just a bunch of talk and

1857
01:58:08,613 --> 01:58:12,415
a bunch of voting Democrat. All right, here we go.

1858
01:58:12,695 --> 01:58:14,136
We're excited to have each and every one of you

1859
01:58:14,216 --> 01:58:16,498
to join us for this important discussion about... All right,

1860
01:58:16,498 --> 01:58:20,541
I'm already sold. This is already good. Is that that

1861
01:58:20,661 --> 01:58:23,943
Encina guy? Is he also in this group? No, we're

1862
01:58:23,983 --> 01:58:25,424
excited to have each and every one of you to

1863
01:58:25,504 --> 01:58:28,406
join us for this important discussion about what socialism is,

1864
01:58:28,906 --> 01:58:31,728
the history of socialism, and what a socialist revolution could

1865
01:58:31,728 --> 01:58:34,590
look like in the United States. Because the main thing

1866
01:58:34,650 --> 01:58:37,552
that we talk to with all members, with the Action

1867
01:58:37,572 --> 01:58:40,554
Network, and with our communities, is how do we actually

1868
01:58:40,614 --> 01:58:45,378
achieve it? A foundational step in the socialist reconstruction of

1869
01:58:45,458 --> 01:58:49,581
society would be the creation of a new constitution. The

1870
01:58:49,581 --> 01:58:53,403
new socialist government will take possession of all the existing

1871
01:58:53,483 --> 01:58:58,226
capitalist banks and create one people's development bank. The electoral

1872
01:58:58,326 --> 01:59:02,449
college would be abolished. The House of Representatives could be

1873
01:59:02,709 --> 01:59:06,592
replaced with the National People's Assembly that would not only

1874
01:59:06,672 --> 01:59:11,756
be made up of delegates elected from local election districts,

1875
01:59:12,016 --> 01:59:16,099
also include delegates from the many mass organizations of millions

1876
01:59:16,179 --> 01:59:19,881
of workers, students, and more. And the Senate could be

1877
01:59:20,001 --> 01:59:24,824
replaced by the Assembly of Oppressed Nations to correct the

1878
01:59:24,925 --> 01:59:30,769
historic injustices imposed on the indigenous peoples and the black

1879
01:59:30,829 --> 01:59:35,292
nation. This Assembly of Oppressed Nations will consist of delegates

1880
01:59:35,352 --> 01:59:40,495
from oppressed nationalities and peoples. The reorganization of society, including

1881
01:59:40,575 --> 01:59:45,338
the transition of society to green technology and renewable energy

1882
01:59:45,719 --> 01:59:50,622
will be carried out by the people themselves. Mass organizations

1883
01:59:50,682 --> 01:59:54,505
will have a central role in a socialist society. These

1884
01:59:54,645 --> 01:59:59,068
voluntary-based organizations will be involved in the day-to-day management of

1885
01:59:59,148 --> 01:59:59,988
the affairs of society.

1886
02:00:00,660 --> 02:00:05,663
So the reorganization of housing under socialism has to do

1887
02:00:05,783 --> 02:00:10,847
with the rational distribution of this abundance created by capitalism,

1888
02:00:11,207 --> 02:00:14,289
but is being held hostage by the capitalist class. Oh,

1889
02:00:14,349 --> 02:00:17,511
this is great. You know, I would like to invite

1890
02:00:17,551 --> 02:00:20,814
her to come to Holland. and live here for a

1891
02:00:20,834 --> 02:00:27,318
bit, or try the UK, or... Anywhere but Poland. And

1892
02:00:27,398 --> 02:00:30,380
comrade, you will see what your end result will be

1893
02:00:30,440 --> 02:00:33,402
like. Looks good for a moment when the sun is

1894
02:00:33,482 --> 02:00:38,346
shining. Yeah, well, it just gets worse. But it's so

1895
02:00:38,546 --> 02:00:41,748
ludicrous. Here, play part two. Now, some in the socialist

1896
02:00:41,868 --> 02:00:45,571
movement want to distance themselves from the efforts of the

1897
02:00:45,691 --> 02:00:47,932
hundreds of millions of people in the world, in the

1898
02:00:47,972 --> 02:00:53,036
global south, to construct socialism over the past century, since

1899
02:00:53,056 --> 02:00:58,359
1917, when the first successful socialist revolution took place. Wait,

1900
02:00:58,359 --> 02:01:06,985
1970 successful socialist revolution? 1917, the Russian Revolution. Yeah, that's

1901
02:01:07,045 --> 02:01:11,608
very successful. How did that work out long term? It

1902
02:01:17,432 --> 02:01:36,245
seemed to have fallen apart, to be honest about it.

1903
02:01:36,365 --> 02:01:41,489
reorganization of the political and economic system. The socialist government

1904
02:01:41,589 --> 02:01:45,591
would move to shut down the over 800 US military

1905
02:01:45,712 --> 02:01:49,314
bases across the world. We would bring the troops home

1906
02:01:49,994 --> 02:01:54,257
and the US would be denuclearized. So wave of revolutions

1907
02:01:54,558 --> 02:01:57,319
would likely take place in the world if people win

1908
02:01:57,520 --> 02:02:02,823
socialism here in the US. projects can actually advance beyond

1909
02:02:03,103 --> 02:02:07,446
the first stage. So socialist reconstruction in the U.S. is

1910
02:02:07,566 --> 02:02:12,570
not only possible, but it's a historic responsibility to ourselves

1911
02:02:12,810 --> 02:02:14,671
and the people of the world. Thank you so much.

1912
02:02:15,011 --> 02:02:17,833
Oh, this is great. Yeah, I would really like AOC

1913
02:02:18,014 --> 02:02:22,437
to run. That would be just so nice. Yeah, Newsom

1914
02:02:22,537 --> 02:02:26,479
is trying to horn his way into the socialist scene

1915
02:02:26,579 --> 02:02:29,802
because he thinks that, you know, he sees the inevitability

1916
02:02:29,862 --> 02:02:32,824
of... He sees that as the way to go? Yeah,

1917
02:02:33,124 --> 02:02:37,267
he's an idiot. I think we, you know... Anyone who's

1918
02:02:37,387 --> 02:02:40,509
met the guy is like, when he says he was

1919
02:02:40,589 --> 02:02:43,791
not that bright in school and he had low SAT

1920
02:02:43,971 --> 02:02:47,974
scores, he's right. But have you met him? I met

1921
02:02:47,994 --> 02:02:50,856
him, yeah, I met him when he was owner of

1922
02:02:50,856 --> 02:02:53,618
the Balboa Cafe and he came around when he was

1923
02:02:53,638 --> 02:02:56,560
running for mayor. I was sitting at the table and

1924
02:02:56,620 --> 02:03:00,262
he comes around. Yeah. I'm sitting with Hearst, actually. Uh-huh.

1925
02:03:00,803 --> 02:03:03,144
And he comes around, introduces himself, and we have a

1926
02:03:03,184 --> 02:03:06,627
long chat because he's going to change news. And he

1927
02:03:06,707 --> 02:03:12,030
just seemed like this, he seemed very, uh. frat boy.

1928
02:03:12,090 --> 02:03:14,352
Yeah, he looks like a bit of a frat boy,

1929
02:03:14,512 --> 02:03:19,415
but yeah. He's mad about what they're doing to him

1930
02:03:19,495 --> 02:03:21,937
and his wife. Which is not, I don't think it's

1931
02:03:21,977 --> 02:03:29,722
even driven from Washington. That's from... California, his own inspector

1932
02:03:29,823 --> 02:03:32,024
general was going after him. And that's not even a

1933
02:03:32,104 --> 02:03:34,586
Trump guy. Well, the whole thing started with Biden, too.

1934
02:03:34,646 --> 02:03:42,411
Yeah, exactly. There's some... Forces at work. I think he

1935
02:03:42,531 --> 02:03:48,695
could end up in jail like Blagojevich. Wow, that was

1936
02:03:48,815 --> 02:03:53,098
harsh. They take him out like Blago. I think it's

1937
02:03:53,138 --> 02:03:58,742
possible. Wow. That's why he's panicking. Just to give Kamala

1938
02:03:58,762 --> 02:04:01,544
another shot? I mean, what are we thinking here? Kamala's

1939
02:04:01,584 --> 02:04:05,807
not good. Kamala looks good in the polls right now,

1940
02:04:05,887 --> 02:04:08,689
but when she actually goes out in campaigns, she can't

1941
02:04:08,729 --> 02:04:12,912
get anyone to support her. Nobody likes her. AOC, man.

1942
02:04:13,212 --> 02:04:15,774
That's it. AOC. I think AOC would be great, but

1943
02:04:15,954 --> 02:04:18,015
I don't know if they've got the guts to try

1944
02:04:18,115 --> 02:04:22,398
to do that. Well, what choices do they have? I

1945
02:04:22,478 --> 02:04:28,623
think Bashir is up there. Bashir The Kentucky governor? Yeah,

1946
02:04:28,643 --> 02:04:34,767
the Kentucky governor. Andy Beshear. Good-looking guy. Not a good

1947
02:04:34,827 --> 02:04:38,069
name for President Beshear. That doesn't sound right. He's not

1948
02:04:38,589 --> 02:04:44,053
socialist enough. You're going to run a socialist. Yeah, it's

1949
02:04:44,073 --> 02:04:46,935
going to be fun. It's going to be fantastic. We

1950
02:04:46,995 --> 02:04:48,856
still have to wait a couple of years. The real

1951
02:04:48,956 --> 02:04:51,598
battle is going to be between the Republicans. It's going

1952
02:04:51,618 --> 02:04:55,841
to be whether J.D. or Rubio can pull it off.

1953
02:04:58,103 --> 02:05:01,085
Rubio's more presidential right now. Well, we'll probably be here

1954
02:05:01,145 --> 02:05:06,188
for that. Yeah, it's coming up. I say probably. We'll

1955
02:05:06,228 --> 02:05:10,351
try. We'll try to be there. We're really going to

1956
02:05:10,411 --> 02:05:12,893
try. It's not easy. This will be our fifth time

1957
02:05:12,913 --> 02:05:15,995
around. Our fifth time around doing that. And with that,

1958
02:05:16,855 --> 02:05:19,197
for today, only one time, I'd like to thank you

1959
02:05:19,257 --> 02:05:20,898
for your courage. Say in the morning to you, the

1960
02:05:20,898 --> 02:05:23,540
man who put the C in the adult daycare center.

1961
02:05:23,660 --> 02:05:25,081
Say hello to my friend on the other end, the

1962
02:05:25,141 --> 02:05:34,207
one, the only, Mr. John C. DeVore. You can see

1963
02:05:34,227 --> 02:05:36,649
he puts a little graphene there. Sups in the water

1964
02:05:36,669 --> 02:05:38,050
and it dams the nights out there. In the morning,

1965
02:05:38,050 --> 02:05:41,012
two trolls in the troll room. Oh, wow, look at

1966
02:05:41,032 --> 02:05:49,137
that. 1855. Wow. Yeah, it's because they want to know.

1967
02:05:49,578 --> 02:05:54,021
Oh, yeah, they want to know about Lady G. Yeah.

1968
02:05:54,421 --> 02:05:57,723
That's right. Thanks. And then they got disappointed. No, they

1969
02:05:57,803 --> 02:06:00,445
didn't. Well, maybe. What do you mean? They may have

1970
02:06:00,445 --> 02:06:03,207
been disappointed. Because all the notes I get, oh, who

1971
02:06:03,347 --> 02:06:07,970
killed him? I told you. exploding microphone it's obvious we

1972
02:06:08,050 --> 02:06:12,213
all know that no unfortunately i have to i have

1973
02:06:12,253 --> 02:06:14,775
to agree with you i'm i mean unfortunately because it

1974
02:06:14,815 --> 02:06:16,936
would be great for the show but yeah when you

1975
02:06:16,996 --> 02:06:20,859
bring in the the genetics and the traveling and the

1976
02:06:21,019 --> 02:06:24,201
altitude and it's just totally possible just had a widow

1977
02:06:24,281 --> 02:06:27,764
maker pop done you're gone Doesn't take that long. Look

1978
02:06:27,824 --> 02:06:30,386
at you. About the same age. Yeah, could happen to

1979
02:06:30,406 --> 02:06:33,428
me. Yeah. No, you can't because we still have to

1980
02:06:33,488 --> 02:06:35,509
get to the AOC. I'm going to 90. I don't

1981
02:06:35,549 --> 02:06:39,132
care what anyone says. 90? That's all? Yeah. I'm going

1982
02:06:39,172 --> 02:06:41,433
to 90. I might get further. I'm going to 98.

1983
02:06:41,453 --> 02:06:43,655
My voice will start to fade. I mean, I listen

1984
02:06:43,735 --> 02:06:48,238
to Bill O'Reilly, who's like 82. His voice sounds weak.

1985
02:06:50,439 --> 02:06:56,383
His voice is weak. Yes. It's like, what happened? Do

1986
02:06:56,463 --> 02:07:01,227
that again. I think you kind of nailed it. Yeah,

1987
02:07:03,208 --> 02:07:07,791
it's kind of sad. It's just not good. No, and

1988
02:07:07,811 --> 02:07:10,393
you think he can get some, you know, I don't

1989
02:07:10,413 --> 02:07:14,876
know, can you... do exercises or, I mean, singers. I

1990
02:07:14,916 --> 02:07:17,498
mean, I was watching this thing of the 50s. You

1991
02:07:17,558 --> 02:07:19,539
know, I don't know why they're doing that. Nobody's alive

1992
02:07:19,599 --> 02:07:22,661
from the 50s, but the 50s music, and they had

1993
02:07:23,622 --> 02:07:27,565
Frankie Lane, who's like this singer from the 40s, really.

1994
02:07:27,685 --> 02:07:30,607
We know Frankie. And he's up there singing. He's like

1995
02:07:30,667 --> 02:07:34,829
in his 90s. And he still has a voice. So,

1996
02:07:35,150 --> 02:07:38,992
can I just ask you something about genetics? How old

1997
02:07:39,052 --> 02:07:41,874
was your dad when he passed? Well, my dad died

1998
02:07:41,934 --> 02:07:46,177
from a blood transfusion problem. Oh. So it was nothing

1999
02:07:46,197 --> 02:07:48,399
to do with his genetics. My mom... Why did he

2000
02:07:48,439 --> 02:07:50,840
have a blood transfusion? Because they gave him a blood

2001
02:07:50,880 --> 02:07:54,583
transfusion. He had an ulcer that was operated on. They

2002
02:07:54,623 --> 02:07:58,045
gave him bad blood. No way. Yeah. How old was

2003
02:07:58,105 --> 02:08:03,989
he? He was like 60s. Oh, that sucks. But my

2004
02:08:04,089 --> 02:08:10,874
mom, who died of natural causes. Phyllis. Phyllis. Phyllis? She

2005
02:08:10,974 --> 02:08:14,356
died at 90, so. Oh, okay. Well, good, good. You

2006
02:08:14,436 --> 02:08:19,840
got some years left in you, Phyllis. Yeah, yeah. My

2007
02:08:20,040 --> 02:08:22,662
concern is my voice is going to, I hear Bill

2008
02:08:22,722 --> 02:08:25,944
O'Reilly, I said, holy crap, could that happen to anybody?

2009
02:08:25,964 --> 02:08:28,866
No. What it is. I mean, it's like Pat Summerill,

2010
02:08:29,006 --> 02:08:32,589
these guys that were sports announcers until their late 80s,

2011
02:08:32,649 --> 02:08:39,293
and they sound fine. I think because you are projecting

2012
02:08:39,373 --> 02:08:43,536
into a microphone in front of your face, that's what

2013
02:08:43,596 --> 02:08:47,339
keeps it alive. Once you go video and you can't

2014
02:08:47,379 --> 02:08:50,461
have the cans, you're like, Bill O'Reilly doesn't have a

2015
02:08:50,561 --> 02:08:53,503
mic in front of his face. No, he's lavved up.

2016
02:08:53,543 --> 02:08:58,006
He's not shouting down a tube. He's not spitting in

2017
02:08:58,106 --> 02:09:01,629
a tube. He's lavved up like a wimpy boy. Then

2018
02:09:01,849 --> 02:09:05,832
that's when it ends. It could be. Seriously. Thank you.

2019
02:09:06,992 --> 02:09:12,036
um I mean the days of, where is it? Oh,

2020
02:09:12,056 --> 02:09:15,078
that was not it. Wasn't it Bill O'Reilly who said

2021
02:09:15,118 --> 02:09:19,541
we'd do it live? Yeah. We'll do it live. See?

2022
02:09:19,601 --> 02:09:23,303
See? Where's O'Reilly would do it live? Here we go.

2023
02:09:24,284 --> 02:09:26,746
Do it live. I'll write it and we'll do it

2024
02:09:26,826 --> 02:09:30,488
live. See, you got to be doing that. If you're

2025
02:09:30,508 --> 02:09:33,591
not doing that. He lost his oomph. Yeah, then you

2026
02:09:33,671 --> 02:09:36,893
lose your oomph. It's a constant practicing. In fact, it

2027
02:09:36,913 --> 02:09:39,695
would probably be better longer term for you. I know

2028
02:09:39,715 --> 02:09:42,517
you don't like this. if you put your headphones on,

2029
02:09:42,617 --> 02:09:45,739
because then you're really... I can hear myself modulate. Yes,

2030
02:09:45,899 --> 02:09:48,701
I agree with that. Yes. How about some in-ears, you

2031
02:09:48,961 --> 02:09:53,784
know, like all the cool musicians use? You know, molded

2032
02:09:53,844 --> 02:09:56,766
to your ear. Yeah, let me consider this. And, hey,

2033
02:09:56,806 --> 02:09:59,528
if you're worried about your voice going, you know, you

2034
02:09:59,588 --> 02:09:59,848
will be...

2035
02:10:00,020 --> 02:10:05,263
objecting better. I start to modulate. I start to sound

2036
02:10:05,303 --> 02:10:12,208
like this. Yeah. Hey, how you doing? Maybe not such

2037
02:10:12,228 --> 02:10:15,530
a good idea. Hey, ladies and gentlemen, you are listening

2038
02:10:15,530 --> 02:10:18,332
to The No Agenda Show. the show that we do

2039
02:10:18,452 --> 02:10:21,334
as a public service, and we prove it by not

2040
02:10:21,514 --> 02:10:28,219
forcing you into any monetization scheme at all whatsoever. No

2041
02:10:28,439 --> 02:10:32,322
ads, not trying to sell you something, just trying to

2042
02:10:32,422 --> 02:10:35,924
give you the best media deconstruction we can deliver. And

2043
02:10:35,984 --> 02:10:40,027
something's working because we're in our 19th, almost 19 years,

2044
02:10:40,027 --> 02:10:43,549
it'll be 19 in October. And we still want to

2045
02:10:43,609 --> 02:10:46,571
see AOC and Rubio. So we're going to continue for

2046
02:10:46,631 --> 02:10:49,053
as long as we can. And we do that because

2047
02:10:49,113 --> 02:10:52,115
it's value for value. And the value for value is

2048
02:10:52,275 --> 02:10:55,818
just such a beautiful system because there's no obligation to

2049
02:10:55,878 --> 02:10:59,220
you. It's only in your heart. When you feel like,

2050
02:10:59,560 --> 02:11:03,082
oh, man, these guys are doing it for me. Right

2051
02:11:03,122 --> 02:11:06,585
now it's at 10.20 p.m. I'm here on so-called vacation

2052
02:11:06,705 --> 02:11:13,710
baby watch. Setting up. Setting up screens at computers and

2053
02:11:13,730 --> 02:11:17,572
hotel rooms. Going through TSA nonsense every single time I

2054
02:11:17,712 --> 02:11:20,775
travel. Getting the whole thing unpacked. And then repack it

2055
02:11:20,815 --> 02:11:24,797
properly. All of that. Because we want to deliver the

2056
02:11:24,857 --> 02:11:27,779
show. We just want to continue. John, I mean, he

2057
02:11:27,839 --> 02:11:31,042
was barely out of a double bypass hospital surgery. He

2058
02:11:31,122 --> 02:11:33,923
was back on the mic. Yep. And you hardly had

2059
02:11:33,984 --> 02:11:38,306
it. It was pretty bad. I mean, talk about it.

2060
02:11:38,346 --> 02:11:40,128
Now you're back to full strength. But it took a

2061
02:11:40,148 --> 02:11:44,851
bit. you know family small american family business had the

2062
02:11:44,931 --> 02:11:47,953
wife pitch in there for a while That's because we're

2063
02:11:47,993 --> 02:11:50,435
serious about what we do. And all I ask is

2064
02:11:50,475 --> 02:11:53,617
that from time to time, even every single show would

2065
02:11:53,657 --> 02:11:57,299
be nice. Like, you know. That was pretty valuable to

2066
02:11:57,339 --> 02:12:02,063
me. I had a good laugh. Something interesting that made

2067
02:12:02,103 --> 02:12:04,444
me feel smarter because we don't actually make you smarter,

2068
02:12:04,484 --> 02:12:07,566
but you'll feel smarter. An angle that you hadn't thought

2069
02:12:07,646 --> 02:12:09,808
of, maybe a punchline, all of it. It's just there.

2070
02:12:10,488 --> 02:12:13,651
Send us some value back. And this is the beauty

2071
02:12:13,691 --> 02:12:18,214
of value for value. Nobody knows what value is to

2072
02:12:18,454 --> 02:12:23,197
you, what number you put on value. $5 could be

2073
02:12:23,397 --> 02:12:27,100
a lot of money to you. with you sending that

2074
02:12:27,320 --> 02:12:31,203
as someone who sends us 5,000. Admittedly, 5,000, I get

2075
02:12:31,203 --> 02:12:34,385
a little warm feeling. Hasn't happened in a while, has

2076
02:12:34,505 --> 02:12:38,888
it? Oh, we had the Rub-A-Lizer donation last show. We

2077
02:12:38,908 --> 02:12:40,569
did have a Rub-A-Lizer. And one time we had a

2078
02:12:40,689 --> 02:12:45,792
$10,000 donation. That was our people in Bastrop. That's right.

2079
02:12:46,813 --> 02:12:49,055
Who now apparently, I think they're in D.C. I think

2080
02:12:49,075 --> 02:12:52,737
they moved. I think he's working for the government now.

2081
02:12:53,958 --> 02:12:58,141
Hmm, not sure. But I believe they sold the Bastrop

2082
02:12:58,221 --> 02:13:01,083
place. That was a dynamite place. And value can also

2083
02:13:01,163 --> 02:13:02,904
be done, you know, you can give us value in

2084
02:13:02,964 --> 02:13:07,247
different ways. Starting, you know, organizing a meetup. I got

2085
02:13:07,247 --> 02:13:09,389
a cool jingle today. I haven't been able to use

2086
02:13:09,509 --> 02:13:14,232
it. A jingle? A jingle. I got a jingle. You

2087
02:13:14,232 --> 02:13:19,115
know, I'm not talking about my AI woes today, but

2088
02:13:19,175 --> 02:13:21,637
I got, what is it, Kevin Trotman sent me a

2089
02:13:21,697 --> 02:13:24,479
jingle. A jingle if I tell you how to do

2090
02:13:24,559 --> 02:13:38,749
the AI right. Adam's prompt, jockey pointers. Well, there you

2091
02:13:38,809 --> 02:13:42,111
have it. Value. Very valuable to me. Now, one of

2092
02:13:42,151 --> 02:13:47,034
the things people do... Excuse me. is create artwork. And

2093
02:13:47,074 --> 02:13:49,076
this has been valuable from the first day we did

2094
02:13:49,116 --> 02:13:53,058
it. Artwork for the album art that we put into

2095
02:13:53,138 --> 02:13:56,301
the MP3 and everywhere we post the show. It shows

2096
02:13:56,381 --> 02:14:01,144
up on noagendashow.net. Because this gets people interested in what's

2097
02:14:01,444 --> 02:14:03,886
happening. What is this image about? Oh, it might be

2098
02:14:03,986 --> 02:14:10,130
funny or it's topical. And this was admittedly the simplest

2099
02:14:10,270 --> 02:14:14,593
piece from Interrobang. I don't know if Interrobang has ever,

2100
02:14:15,814 --> 02:14:19,236
seen Interrobang previously? Let me see Interrobang's page. I don't

2101
02:14:19,316 --> 02:14:22,999
think so. Nothing that won. No, I think Interrobang's pretty

2102
02:14:23,079 --> 02:14:26,781
new. Yeah, Interrobang came in July 2nd with the first

2103
02:14:26,861 --> 02:14:31,204
piece of art. And this was admittedly quite simple. It

2104
02:14:31,264 --> 02:14:35,547
was the no agenda, Corinne Dvorak, our door to the

2105
02:14:35,567 --> 02:14:38,349
consulting company, I guess. And it says, we accept AI

2106
02:14:38,489 --> 02:14:42,852
tokens. Now, it wasn't, I mean, let me see. There

2107
02:14:42,892 --> 02:14:45,954
was something we were going to say about Oh, I

2108
02:14:46,054 --> 02:14:49,317
remember what it was. Yeah. We just didn't want to

2109
02:14:49,377 --> 02:14:56,081
give it to Darren O'Neill. Am I right? This is

2110
02:14:56,181 --> 02:14:59,664
the truth. Because Darren did the No Agenda Batteries, which

2111
02:14:59,704 --> 02:15:02,526
was a good piece, has been done a hundred times.

2112
02:15:03,146 --> 02:15:06,408
We used the No Agenda Batteries in the newsletter. Jay

2113
02:15:06,488 --> 02:15:09,971
picked it because she picks that. And then if I

2114
02:15:10,031 --> 02:15:11,592
don't like it, I call her and tell her to

2115
02:15:11,712 --> 02:15:16,235
change it. But she picked this piece. And not only

2116
02:15:16,275 --> 02:15:18,457
did she pick the Batteries piece, which is a killer

2117
02:15:18,557 --> 02:15:22,840
piece. Yeah, it is. I got a note from one

2118
02:15:22,900 --> 02:15:25,541
of our producers saying, how can I help promote this?

2119
02:15:26,062 --> 02:15:32,166
That great meme, the no agenda batteries. Really? Yeah, it

2120
02:15:32,226 --> 02:15:36,149
was like, I've never had that. The no agenda batteries

2121
02:15:36,249 --> 02:15:39,191
piece was, again, used in the newsletter and I posted

2122
02:15:39,211 --> 02:15:42,613
it on both. This tells me something important that we

2123
02:15:42,733 --> 02:15:46,376
made a bad decision. It was the right decision because

2124
02:15:46,416 --> 02:15:48,377
we really just didn't want to give it to Darren.

2125
02:15:48,477 --> 02:15:50,779
You were up front. You're like, man, we just don't

2126
02:15:50,799 --> 02:15:52,560
want to give that to Darren. Am I right or

2127
02:15:52,620 --> 02:15:55,522
am I right? It was actually you, but it doesn't

2128
02:15:55,522 --> 02:15:59,785
matter. We both agreed and then we discussed and I'm

2129
02:15:59,805 --> 02:16:02,367
gonna bring it back up. Yeah, here we go editorial

2130
02:16:02,487 --> 02:16:04,848
meetings Yes, this is how it goes when you work

2131
02:16:04,968 --> 02:16:09,731
in a newsroom or an editorial position in any newspaper

2132
02:16:09,832 --> 02:16:14,615
magazine or Periodical and they do these awards like best

2133
02:16:14,715 --> 02:16:19,038
of this best of that It's always corrupted by that

2134
02:16:19,138 --> 02:16:23,861
kind of political political Discussions like we can't give it

2135
02:16:23,921 --> 02:16:27,223
to Daryl. He's winning too much And you're the one

2136
02:16:27,263 --> 02:16:30,025
that said the following. Whoa, here we go. To quote

2137
02:16:30,085 --> 02:16:34,668
you, you said, it's going to discourage other artists. That's

2138
02:16:34,749 --> 02:16:38,071
exactly what I did say that. Because Darren is just

2139
02:16:38,231 --> 02:16:43,475
pooping out so much AI art. That's quite good. It's

2140
02:16:43,555 --> 02:16:46,957
beyond good. If we let Darren win again, it will

2141
02:16:47,017 --> 02:16:52,761
discourage other artists. That's right. We'd like to... Yes. So

2142
02:16:52,841 --> 02:16:55,923
there's a political angle to picking things. Yes. And this

2143
02:16:56,003 --> 02:16:58,365
goes on in newspapers and magazines. They have the top

2144
02:16:58,425 --> 02:17:01,147
ten list. And I have plenty of stories because I've

2145
02:17:01,187 --> 02:17:03,828
been on many... Newspapers and magazines. Many a judging panel.

2146
02:17:03,868 --> 02:17:06,931
How about the Oscars? Academy Awards? Come on. They're all...

2147
02:17:07,391 --> 02:17:10,133
The Golden Globes. It's corrupt. It's all corrupt. And we're

2148
02:17:10,193 --> 02:17:12,374
just as corrupt. It's corrupt. We're just as corrupt as

2149
02:17:12,434 --> 02:17:17,378
the rest. Yeah, the political aspect to all these selections,

2150
02:17:18,038 --> 02:17:24,062
and that was exactly the consideration was no. Darren is

2151
02:17:24,322 --> 02:17:26,884
getting too damn good at this because he'd just be

2152
02:17:26,964 --> 02:17:29,926
winning every week. I'm seeing, I mean, but Darren, I

2153
02:17:30,026 --> 02:17:33,669
mean, of course, Darren doesn't have a job. He only

2154
02:17:33,709 --> 02:17:36,551
has to cook for his wife. You know, he's doing

2155
02:17:36,631 --> 02:17:40,353
podcasts. You know, and so he's got it, man. I'm

2156
02:17:40,413 --> 02:17:44,236
looking at what he's put in today. It's like there's

2157
02:17:44,276 --> 02:17:48,819
some dynamite stuff in here. There's still people. There's still

2158
02:17:48,999 --> 02:17:52,061
a chance. Don't let it all be Darren, please. You

2159
02:17:52,121 --> 02:17:57,205
know, we have, it's astonishing how much talent. That we

2160
02:17:57,385 --> 02:18:02,929
have, I would say, uh... generated from the show. The

2161
02:18:03,609 --> 02:18:09,833
existence of this show has produced has attracted and created

2162
02:18:09,873 --> 02:18:16,138
and developed. Talent. Incredible talent. I mean, look at the

2163
02:18:16,198 --> 02:18:18,699
No Agenda stream. Listen to it. Listen to the incredible

2164
02:18:18,759 --> 02:18:21,341
talent that's on there. I mean, I'd take credit for

2165
02:18:21,421 --> 02:18:29,247
Nick the Rat, too. you Yes, I do. Okay. Yes.

2166
02:18:29,527 --> 02:18:33,029
And Darren O'Neill's doing 18 shows. Doing a show with

2167
02:18:33,129 --> 02:18:38,613
Gene. Doing a show with Larry. Doing the Rock and

2168
02:18:38,613 --> 02:18:44,317
Roll Priest stream show. Yeah, you're right. It's talent. talent.

2169
02:18:45,438 --> 02:18:48,920
We are the hit makers, my friend. Curry and Dvorak,

2170
02:18:49,400 --> 02:18:51,762
hit makers at large. That's right. You know, I'm surprised

2171
02:18:51,802 --> 02:18:54,544
people have not given it, have not called to say,

2172
02:18:54,604 --> 02:18:56,265
hey, you know what, can you help us do this?

2173
02:18:56,605 --> 02:19:04,030
We'll pay you big dough. Okay. That's not how it

2174
02:19:04,090 --> 02:19:06,312
goes. Hey, who could help us with this? Well, is

2175
02:19:06,312 --> 02:19:08,433
that Curry and Dvorak? Oh, those boomers. I don't think

2176
02:19:08,513 --> 02:19:12,596
so. That's exactly how that people, people don't, people don't

2177
02:19:12,656 --> 02:19:16,058
think about us that way. Only those of you in

2178
02:19:16,119 --> 02:19:19,741
the know who are here, all 1,800 of you who

2179
02:19:19,781 --> 02:19:22,263
are listening in the troll room chock full. Good to

2180
02:19:22,303 --> 02:19:24,084
have you here. Well, there's people that will be picking

2181
02:19:24,124 --> 02:19:28,307
this up later. Yeah, well, later, yes. So we always

2182
02:19:28,387 --> 02:19:30,809
thank everybody who sends money to us. Let's just call

2183
02:19:30,889 --> 02:19:33,891
it that. It's time, talent, and treasure. We need the

2184
02:19:33,911 --> 02:19:37,013
money because that's the only income we have. Except John

2185
02:19:37,073 --> 02:19:41,836
has some social security. Tina's taking early social security to

2186
02:19:41,836 --> 02:19:46,539
make ends meet. I never took it early. Well, I

2187
02:19:46,639 --> 02:19:50,522
said, hey, could you take that early? If donations are

2188
02:19:50,562 --> 02:19:55,425
down, take your Social Security early. Well, I'm definitely taking

2189
02:19:55,425 --> 02:19:59,248
Social Security, but I'm beyond early. Yeah. No, I understand.

2190
02:20:01,200 --> 02:20:03,082
So there you go. But I wasn't talking about you.

2191
02:20:03,102 --> 02:20:06,164
I was talking about my situation. Oh, can you take

2192
02:20:06,204 --> 02:20:10,587
it early? No, I can't take it early. You can't

2193
02:20:10,607 --> 02:20:13,429
take it early until, what, 63, I think? I don't

2194
02:20:13,469 --> 02:20:17,391
know, but I wouldn't do it. Well. Easy for you

2195
02:20:17,471 --> 02:20:22,014
to say, my friend. So... We thank everybody, $50 and

2196
02:20:22,055 --> 02:20:24,696
above, never under $50 for reasons of anonymity. And we

2197
02:20:24,756 --> 02:20:29,079
appreciate all amounts, all donations. We do have some extra

2198
02:20:29,159 --> 02:20:33,702
benefit. for people who support us, $200 or above. With

2199
02:20:33,743 --> 02:20:38,366
that, you get a Hollywood credit, associate executive producer, and

2200
02:20:38,406 --> 02:20:41,328
we're guaranteed to read your note. We may truncate some

2201
02:20:41,388 --> 02:20:43,629
of them. I looked at the spreadsheet today. I'm like,

2202
02:20:43,769 --> 02:20:48,893
hmm. That first note is a whopper. Yeah. But it's

2203
02:20:48,913 --> 02:20:51,915
from the Archduchess Kim, the keeper of the nutty fluffers.

2204
02:20:51,995 --> 02:20:56,278
That's different. That is different. We break for these types

2205
02:20:56,318 --> 02:21:01,822
of people. And then we have $300 and above. You

2206
02:21:01,922 --> 02:21:04,343
get an executive producer credit and we will read your

2207
02:21:04,403 --> 02:21:07,986
note. And these credits are completely legit because we are

2208
02:21:08,046 --> 02:21:11,588
legit. We come from legacy media. So therefore, when we

2209
02:21:11,668 --> 02:21:14,610
hand these titles out, you're legitimized. You can go to

2210
02:21:14,750 --> 02:21:17,152
imdb.com and if you don't have an account, you can

2211
02:21:17,212 --> 02:21:20,754
open one up with your executive or associate executive producer

2212
02:21:20,795 --> 02:21:23,596
credit. And we start today, and you are right, and

2213
02:21:23,656 --> 02:21:29,941
this really saved us today. $2,000 from Archduchess Kim, Keeper

2214
02:21:29,981 --> 02:21:35,024
of the Nutty Fluffers. She's in Hubbard, Oregon. And she

2215
02:21:35,104 --> 02:21:38,026
says right off the bat she wants some jingles. Get

2216
02:21:38,086 --> 02:21:41,188
those. She wants Screw Your Freedom and Little Girl Ye.

2217
02:21:41,589 --> 02:21:44,951
ITM Adam and John. Sorry for the long note in

2218
02:21:45,051 --> 02:21:51,155
advance, John, but you know it's me, so whatever. Whatever.

2219
02:21:51,515 --> 02:21:52,856
Now, here it is. She would like to ask the

2220
02:21:52,936 --> 02:21:56,679
No Agenda community for some assistance with her daughter's FFA

2221
02:21:56,899 --> 02:22:00,902
project this year. What is an FFA project? Future Farmers

2222
02:22:00,982 --> 02:22:04,704
of America. Oh, here you go. She bought a lamb

2223
02:22:04,925 --> 02:22:06,946
and has put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears

2224
02:22:07,046 --> 02:22:10,268
into bringing him to market. She just finished the market

2225
02:22:10,348 --> 02:22:14,211
class yesterday where she placed 15th in 200 plus lambs.

2226
02:22:14,211 --> 02:22:17,353
That sounds pretty good. The amount you can give with

2227
02:22:17,433 --> 02:22:20,635
an add-on donation is greatly appreciated as it goes to

2228
02:22:20,695 --> 02:22:23,858
help her recoup expenses from this year and buy her

2229
02:22:23,918 --> 02:22:27,180
lamb for next year. I have included her buyer's letter

2230
02:22:27,200 --> 02:22:29,701
that takes you to her website where you can send

2231
02:22:29,802 --> 02:22:32,784
in a donation. Add-ons end 18th of July, which is

2232
02:22:32,844 --> 02:22:35,505
coming up quick. Can you guys please add it to

2233
02:22:35,566 --> 02:22:38,407
the show notes? Well, of course. On that same note,

2234
02:22:38,507 --> 02:22:40,889
I wanted to bring to your attention the Oregon Peace

2235
02:22:41,129 --> 02:22:46,333
Act, IP28, that could be on this November's ballot. hunting,

2236
02:22:46,753 --> 02:22:50,236
fishing, and livestock breeding along with other things. Well, that

2237
02:22:50,296 --> 02:22:57,641
sounds un-American and certainly un-Oregonian. What? In Oregon? No livestock

2238
02:22:57,761 --> 02:23:01,323
in Oregon? Are you kidding me? No hunting, fishing, and

2239
02:23:01,383 --> 02:23:04,025
livestock. Well, you can have livestock, you just can't breed

2240
02:23:04,065 --> 02:23:08,048
them. This is... Oh, yeah, okay. Hey, kids, go behind

2241
02:23:08,088 --> 02:23:10,930
the barn. Go over to Idaho and pick them up.

2242
02:23:11,290 --> 02:23:13,591
This is huge, and we need to do all we

2243
02:23:13,672 --> 02:23:16,313
can to not let this pass. This will be detrimental

2244
02:23:16,393 --> 02:23:19,415
not only to FFA and 4-H, but also make any

2245
02:23:19,556 --> 02:23:22,518
meat production in this state illegal, as it will ban

2246
02:23:22,738 --> 02:23:27,781
slaughtering. Now where's your Muslims? Thank you so much for

2247
02:23:27,881 --> 02:23:29,602
all that you guys do. I hope to make it

2248
02:23:29,622 --> 02:23:32,704
to Grand Duchess this year, but I'm still waiting on

2249
02:23:32,764 --> 02:23:38,248
my Rub-A-Lizer challenge coin. Oh. So, so, this is hurting

2250
02:23:38,288 --> 02:23:43,252
the show. Where's our Rubberlizer challenge coin? We're back on

2251
02:23:43,332 --> 02:23:45,753
it. We're back on it. This came up in the

2252
02:23:46,054 --> 02:23:49,196
conversation recently. It's hurting the show. Well, I guess it

2253
02:23:49,456 --> 02:23:52,798
is. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Archduchess

2254
02:23:52,898 --> 02:23:56,261
Kim, keeper of the nutty fluffers, and at request... Screw

2255
02:23:56,381 --> 02:24:01,084
your freedom. Yay! There you go. He wants you to

2256
02:24:01,084 --> 02:24:02,465
get the next one and I'll get it because I

2257
02:24:02,525 --> 02:24:04,986
have a letter. I have the note from the third

2258
02:24:05,107 --> 02:24:10,270
one. Here's another shorty from Colin Fannin and Matt Owen.

2259
02:24:11,851 --> 02:24:19,496
*cough* Michigan. 333 and 33 cents. I'm the owner of

2260
02:24:19,676 --> 02:24:24,420
Fanon Fitness, where my mission is simple. Personalized fitness. Oh,

2261
02:24:24,460 --> 02:24:28,623
I know Colin. he's still waiting for me to fill

2262
02:24:28,683 --> 02:24:32,245
out my onboarding sheet. Personalized fitness for people with real

2263
02:24:32,345 --> 02:24:36,328
constraints, like a podcaster. Through my online coaching program, I

2264
02:24:36,388 --> 02:24:38,990
work with clients across the country to create customized training

2265
02:24:39,050 --> 02:24:41,912
and nutrition plans that fit their scheduled lifestyle and goals.

2266
02:24:42,432 --> 02:24:44,854
Whether they're looking to lose weight, build strength, improve their

2267
02:24:44,894 --> 02:24:48,296
health, or simply feel better every day, I've helped women

2268
02:24:48,376 --> 02:24:53,079
navigate PCOS and menopause. Youth athletes prepare for their sport

2269
02:24:53,179 --> 02:24:56,301
in the weight room. Older adults improve bone density and

2270
02:24:56,361 --> 02:24:59,904
reduce their risk of falls. And middle-aged men ditch dad

2271
02:25:00,004 --> 02:25:02,646
bod and regain their confidence. Can you help me with

2272
02:25:02,686 --> 02:25:06,248
my low T? Whatever your goal or your constraints, Fanon

You used to be a spin class guy? Yeah. I

2286
02:26:03,207 --> 02:26:04,688
used to be a spin class guy. We don't have

2287
02:26:04,688 --> 02:26:07,130
a spin class here. But I should just be working

2288
02:26:07,290 --> 02:26:10,632
out, just pumping a bit of iron. Because we're at

2289
02:26:10,712 --> 02:26:13,694
the age now where people are dying. It's like, oh,

2290
02:26:13,874 --> 02:26:16,176
Lindsey Graham. Well, there you go. There you go. That's

2291
02:26:16,196 --> 02:26:17,957
going to be you. You got 10 more years. You're

2292
02:26:17,957 --> 02:26:24,021
going to die like Lindsey. Good. Thank you. Don't be

2293
02:26:24,121 --> 02:26:29,845
like Dvorak. Okay, okay, I gotcha. So Colin, I'm ready

02:26:51,680 --> 02:26:53,481

printing. This is a switcheroo. Okay, you got to write

paperback. Search the title and author H.C. Roeb. I'm sure

isn't it good for? ITM Dame Shelley, 250. It helps

2333
02:29:17,039 --> 02:29:19,401
by rotting your eyes out. Isn't that how it works?

2334
02:29:19,461 --> 02:29:21,542
So then the glaucoma is taken care of? I've heard

2335
02:29:21,582 --> 02:29:26,005
that, yeah. Maybe. Ryan Perusi, Phoenix, Arizona. Row of Ducks,

2342
02:29:51,563 --> 02:29:52,924
I got a piece of paper with a note on

2343
02:29:52,984 --> 02:29:54,545
it. How come I didn't get the notes? You only

2344
02:29:54,585 --> 02:29:56,926
got the notes. What's up with that? It was Jay's

2345
02:29:57,026 --> 02:29:59,988
birthday yesterday. Ah, yes, it was. And...

2346
02:30:00,180 --> 02:30:02,121
I decided to pick up all the checks and do

2347
02:30:02,221 --> 02:30:04,703
all this note stuff, and I wasn't going to scan

2348
02:30:04,763 --> 02:30:08,245
it. It was Tina's birthday yesterday, too. Yeah, everybody's birthday.

2349
02:30:08,445 --> 02:30:14,790
Yeah. Greetings, gents. Every time you bang away on NPR

2350
02:30:14,870 --> 02:30:21,734
and PBS, my checkbook starts vibrating and says, donate. Good.

2351
02:30:22,715 --> 02:30:26,277
Those two organizations will go down in history as the

2352
02:30:26,498 --> 02:30:32,361
ultimate Trojan horse of American socialism. Also, a reminder for

2353
02:30:32,422 --> 02:30:35,143
the fans to look at JCD's Tip of the Day

2354
02:30:35,304 --> 02:30:41,748

2355
02:30:41,888 --> 02:30:46,291
jingles, no karma. Stay safe. Sir Tigger Max. Yes, that's

2356
02:30:46,391 --> 02:30:49,753
good. The old Sears and Roebuck. How we love that

2357
02:30:49,813 --> 02:30:55,137
catalog. There he is, Ed Laboutier, Tucson, Arizona, $200. Thank

02:30:57,579 --> 02:30:59,960
sent in about the Patriot Front, and we appreciate you.

2360
02:30:59,980 --> 02:31:01,842
He says, you guys are the best, and we thank

2361
02:31:01,882 --> 02:31:05,304

2369
02:31:42,349 --> 02:31:48,133
know, I really love these small one-man shops and small

2370
02:31:48,634 --> 02:31:52,436
family businesses who support the show and throw in their

2371
02:31:52,516 --> 02:31:56,939
plug. There's something really endearing about it. There really is.

2372
02:31:56,939 --> 02:31:58,880
It's cute. Yeah, I like it. And I like it

2373
02:31:58,880 --> 02:32:01,562
when they cross-promote each other. And I can see, you

2374
02:32:01,582 --> 02:32:04,004
know, people are trying it out. I will say, it

2375
02:32:04,064 --> 02:32:06,546
only works if you do it every show. It doesn't

2376
02:32:06,586 --> 02:32:09,188
just work a one-off. You know, that's a Linda Lou

2377

Packen figure that. out you know and and you know

2378
02:32:12,210 --> 02:32:13,831
you can drop out once in a while like eli

2379
02:32:13,911 --> 02:32:18,194
the coffee guy or like the um Little John's Candies.

2380
02:32:18,494 --> 02:32:21,136
They always come up around holidays. Oh, but did you

2381
02:32:21,216 --> 02:32:25,899
get Little John's Candies caramel marshmallow stuff? I've been here

2382
02:32:25,979 --> 02:32:29,161
in Holland. It's probably sitting... Oh, and this came a

2383
02:32:29,221 --> 02:32:33,184
while ago, before you left. Well, yes, I've had that.

2384
02:32:33,264 --> 02:32:36,846
I have had that. With the caramello over a handmade

2385
02:32:36,926 --> 02:32:41,430
marshmallow? You can't eat that. Now I know, but I

2386
02:32:41,570 --> 02:32:45,632
had one. But you didn't have one of the Louisiana

2387
02:32:45,712 --> 02:32:49,095
dill pickles? Not yet. Oh, you got to have one

2388
02:32:49,155 --> 02:32:54,338
of those. And, you know, the Manuka Gold, it's so

2389
02:32:54,438 --> 02:32:57,901
about Tina. So last night, we're in bed. I'm like,

2390
02:32:57,921 --> 02:33:00,563
you know, and I spoon her, like, happy birthday. And

2391
02:33:00,583 --> 02:33:03,044
I rub her leg because that's how she goes to

2392
02:33:03,104 --> 02:33:07,267
sleep. Oh, God. And I say. wow, your leg is

2393
02:33:07,307 --> 02:33:12,891
really smooth. She says, yes, that's the Manuka Gold Everything

2394
02:33:13,011 --> 02:33:16,353
Cream. And she says, I won't even give it to

2395
02:33:16,433 --> 02:33:20,076
my friends. They want it, but they're not getting it.

2396
02:33:20,156 --> 02:33:23,038
She's hoarding it. Why don't you just tell them to

2397
02:33:23,118 --> 02:33:25,620
buy some? She did. She looked at it. She said,

2398
02:33:25,700 --> 02:33:28,301
oh, it's only $30. No, why don't she tell her

2399
02:33:28,402 --> 02:33:30,723
friends to buy some? Well, that's what she's doing now.

2400
02:33:30,983 --> 02:33:34,906
But everyone's like, oh, yeah, it's only $39.95. It's a

2401
02:33:34,986 --> 02:33:37,888
bargain. I don't know how those people make money. Anyway,

2402
02:33:38,288 --> 02:33:40,670
thank you very much, Linda Lou Padkin. Something must be

2403
02:33:40,770 --> 02:33:45,073
working for her. Then Yarmour. Yarmour. Where do I know

2404
02:33:45,153 --> 02:33:51,077
this name from? Is that... Oh, he's from... He's from

2405
02:33:51,457 --> 02:33:55,580
Israel. That's Jew money. Here we go. It's about time.

2406
02:33:55,660 --> 02:34:00,664
Yes. Here's his note. By the power and finances bestowed

2407
02:34:00,764 --> 02:34:04,526
on me by Bibi Netanyahu, I hereby send shekels for

2408
02:34:04,586 --> 02:34:07,728
the show. Shekels for the show. Now, there's a show

2409
02:34:07,828 --> 02:34:11,271
title. Shekels to the show. There's a jingle waiting to

2410
02:34:11,331 --> 02:34:15,394
happen. Shekels for the show. And a birthday shout out

2411
02:34:15,434 --> 02:34:19,516
for myself. 41 on July 12th. That's today. Happy birthday.

2412
02:34:19,997 --> 02:34:21,598
Hit him in the mouth. And if it doesn't work,

2413
02:34:22,218 --> 02:34:27,402
bomb them. Oh, he wanted the jingle. Bomb them, bomb

2414
02:34:27,502 --> 02:34:30,904
them, and bomb them again, eh? Here we go. Bomb

2415
02:34:30,984 --> 02:34:35,527
them, bomb them, and bomb them again. Yeah. All right.

2416
02:34:35,587 --> 02:34:38,809
Shekels for the show. Thank you. That's finally. Much appreciated.

2417
02:34:38,870 --> 02:34:44,013
Finally. Finally. All that work. Yeah. Unblock.me VPNs are last

2418
02:34:44,153 --> 02:34:50,337
on the list in Honolulu, Hawaii. 200. ITM, please de-douche

2419
02:34:50,598 --> 02:34:59,283
us. You've been de-douched. We're a new, no-agenda-motivated, all-American VPN.

Wow. Protect your privacy and freedom with Unblock Me VPN

02:35:05,288 --> 02:35:10,371
wherever you are. in the App Store and Google Play

2422
02:35:10,471 --> 02:35:16,275
Store or online at unblockmevpn.com. Try it today for free.

2423
02:35:16,996 --> 02:35:21,078
Give thanks. So what do you think this is? Because,

2424
02:35:21,098 --> 02:35:23,320
you know, there's a lot of VPN services out there.

2425
02:35:24,100 --> 02:35:25,982
Yeah, I use a couple. Yeah, I use some too.

2426
02:35:26,042 --> 02:35:30,665
But it's Unblock Me VPN. Is that if you're like

2427
02:35:30,885 --> 02:35:34,968
your IP address is blocked because you're a troll and

2428
02:35:35,008 --> 02:35:36,969
now you want to come in from some other place

2429
02:35:37,029 --> 02:35:39,131
and that's why you use Unblock Me VPN? I'm just

2430
02:35:39,171 --> 02:35:43,434
wondering what their hook is, what their pitch is. That

2431
02:35:43,494 --> 02:35:46,035
would be a good pitch. There's a couple of people

2432
02:35:46,055 --> 02:35:47,756
in the troll room right now who've had that problem.

2433
02:35:47,756 --> 02:35:51,019
You get on a block list. Your IP address gets

2434
02:35:51,079 --> 02:35:54,641
on a block list and you're in trouble. You want

2435
02:35:54,961 --> 02:35:59,424
a VPN. Everyone should have a VPN, one form or

2436
02:35:59,485 --> 02:36:01,186
another. You've got to have a VPN. I'll check this

2437
02:36:01,326 --> 02:36:04,208
one out. Yeah, I know you will. For free. I

2438
02:36:04,268 --> 02:36:07,490
will. But it's only for App Store and Google Play,

2439
02:36:07,610 --> 02:36:09,531
so it's for your phone. You have to use it

2440
02:36:09,571 --> 02:36:12,654
for your phone. Or online. Maybe you can get it

2441
02:36:13,014 --> 02:36:16,036
for your computer. It's got the dot com. I'll check

2442
02:36:16,116 --> 02:36:18,217
it out. All right. Hey, thank you very much to

2443
02:36:18,297 --> 02:36:23,001

2456
02:37:13,775 --> 02:37:16,537

02:37:16,637 --> 02:37:18,358
Alan Bean has been giving to us. Yeah, he's been

2458
02:37:18,398 --> 02:37:22,241
giving for ages. Ages, I tell you. He's been giving

2459
02:37:22,301 --> 02:37:27,565
us $50 a month forever. And he said in his

2460
02:37:27,645 --> 02:37:30,126
original $50 note when he used to live in Oakland,

2461
02:37:30,767 --> 02:37:33,208
he said, I'm going to keep sending you this money

2462
02:37:33,589 --> 02:37:38,812
as long as the show stays a good show. As

2463
02:37:38,872 --> 02:37:41,814
long as it stays a good show. Okay. It stays

2464
02:37:41,894 --> 02:37:43,495
a good show. All right. So we're still good. Now

2465
02:37:43,615 --> 02:37:46,297
he says, listen to this little note, I am stepping

2466
02:37:46,598 --> 02:37:52,121

2553
02:43:38,188 --> 02:43:41,771
I'm talking about. Why we don't get every single server

2554
02:43:41,911 --> 02:43:45,633

02:43:48,535 --> 02:43:52,138
you, Dirty Jersey Whore, for your East Texas birthday meetup.

2557
02:43:53,198 --> 02:43:55,200
There is a meetup coming. There are actually two meetups

2558
02:43:55,500 --> 02:43:59,122
this Tuesday. Now, the 14th, the Scottsdale No Agenda Meetup,

2559
02:43:59,243 --> 02:44:03,365
Tacos, Margaritas, and Media Deconstruction starts at 6 o'clock at

2560
02:44:03,485 --> 02:44:09,069
Loco Patron Brewery or Patron Brewery in Scottsdale, Arizona. The

2561
02:44:09,209 --> 02:44:13,852
Keller Southlake meetup, 6 o'clock, Dallas-Fort Worth. That is What's

2562
02:44:14,053 --> 02:44:17,895
on Tap, WOT, W-O-T, in Keller, Texas. And it's a

2563
02:44:18,055 --> 02:44:21,218
bring-your-own-food operation there, just so you know. I guess you

2564
02:44:21,218 --> 02:44:23,699
can get a drink. On Wednesday, the 15th, the Duke

2565
02:44:23,719 --> 02:44:26,081
of the South will be in North Carolina at 6.30

2566
02:44:26,081 --> 02:44:29,403
at Highland Brewing in Asheville, North Carolina. And he will

2567
02:44:29,443 --> 02:44:33,046
be at Charlotte's Thirsty Thursday monthly meetup at 7 o'clock

2568
02:44:33,586 --> 02:44:37,028
at Ed's Tavern in Charlotte, North Carolina. How about that?

2569
02:44:37,168 --> 02:44:40,551
Coming up. This month, San Pedro, California on the 18th,

2570
02:44:41,051 --> 02:44:43,673
Fort Wayne, Indiana on the 25th, Anaheim, California on the

2571
02:44:43,693 --> 02:44:48,096
25th, the 26th, Sequim, Washington, and the 30th, Alpharetta, Georgia.

2572
02:44:48,156 --> 02:44:51,278
We have tons of meetups taking place all the way

2573
02:44:51,358 --> 02:44:53,940
through almost the end of the year. I see Bangkok,

2574
02:44:54,000 --> 02:44:58,263
Thailand on the 8th. I see, let me see, that's

2575
02:44:58,283 --> 02:45:01,945
a big international one. The thing is, go to knowagendameetups.com.

2576
02:45:02,366 --> 02:45:05,828
This is a place, well, it's a website, but when

2577
02:45:05,868 --> 02:45:12,012
you go to a meetup, find your tribe, I guess

2578
02:45:12,052 --> 02:45:14,314
is what I want to call it. You're going to

2579
02:45:14,434 --> 02:45:17,396
fall in line right away with everybody. It doesn't matter

2580
02:45:17,416 --> 02:45:20,458
what your background is, how old you are, how tall,

2581
02:45:21,318 --> 02:45:24,801
how sweaty. It doesn't matter. Sweaty. We got a lot

2582
02:45:24,841 --> 02:45:26,822
of sweaty people at these meetups. I've been a sweaty

2583
02:45:26,902 --> 02:45:30,945
person at the meetup. And it doesn't matter because everybody

2584
02:45:31,045 --> 02:45:33,707
will just dig you. I'm telling you, the people you

2585
02:45:33,807 --> 02:45:37,049
meet will be your first responders in any emergency. We

2586
02:45:37,109 --> 02:45:41,232
have so many that no agenda, telegram groups, people always

2587
02:45:41,312 --> 02:45:43,994
connecting with each other, talk a lot of smack too.

2588
02:45:45,695 --> 02:45:47,717
Connection. That's what you get. And you know what connection

2589
02:45:47,797 --> 02:45:50,298
gives you? It gives you protection. Go to No Agenda

2590
02:45:50,338 --> 02:45:53,821
Meetup. You will not regret it. I guarantee it. Noagendameetups.com.

2591
02:45:54,121 --> 02:46:00,505
If you can't find one, start one yourself. ♪ Mix

2592
02:46:00,685 --> 02:46:19,098
and date ♪ John's tip of the day is coming

2593
02:46:19,158 --> 02:46:21,420
up. It's the Sears and Roebuck part of the show,

2594
02:46:22,060 --> 02:46:25,602
as well as some fun end-of-show mixes as we move

2595
02:46:25,662 --> 02:46:29,365
towards 11 p.m. here in Gitmo Nation Lowlands. Time for

2596
02:46:29,385 --> 02:46:32,707
the ISOs. This is where we select something we'll play

2597
02:46:32,747 --> 02:46:36,950
at the very end of the show. John put his

2598
02:46:37,090 --> 02:46:40,753
two in forbearance. Is that the word? That's a good

2599
02:46:40,813 --> 02:46:43,314
word. That's a good word. So I don't even think

2600
02:46:43,394 --> 02:46:45,356
I'm going to win, but I'll play my three first,

2601
02:46:45,436 --> 02:46:48,198
and then we'll see how yours work out. It's so

2602
02:46:48,438 --> 02:46:54,122
funny, dude! This one's too long. We want to thank

2603
02:46:54,182 --> 02:46:56,503
you very much. We've had a tremendous time and I

2604
02:46:56,583 --> 02:47:01,207
think a great success. And there's always going back to

2605
02:47:01,267 --> 02:47:04,329
the well. We're out of here. I think it's going

2606
02:47:04,349 --> 02:47:06,690
to be one of yours, no doubt about it. Okay,

2607
02:47:06,710 --> 02:47:08,972
well, I got to. I went into a lot of

2608
02:47:08,992 --> 02:47:11,373
trouble to get these. A lot of trouble, a lot

2609
02:47:11,373 --> 02:47:16,957
of prompting. *laughs* Let's start with, it turns out, Obama.

2610
02:47:17,518 --> 02:47:22,461
That was a great show. Kudos to No Agenda. Kind

2611
02:47:22,481 --> 02:47:26,764
of realistic. Kind of. How about Biden? That was a

2612
02:47:26,804 --> 02:47:29,966
great show. No joke. I'm serious. Not kidding. Now go

2613
02:47:30,066 --> 02:47:32,688
out and donate to No Agenda today. No, we got

2614
02:47:32,708 --> 02:47:36,150
to go with Obama. Biden is just so boring that

2615
02:47:36,290 --> 02:47:38,232
even if it was spot on, it's just boring. The

2616
02:47:38,272 --> 02:47:40,754
guy's boring. He's hurting the show. That was a great

2617
02:47:40,854 --> 02:47:43,996
show. Kudos to No Agenda. We'll have to take it.

2618
02:47:44,176 --> 02:47:46,497
Hey, but before we even get to that, it's time

2619
02:47:46,577 --> 02:47:56,024
for John's tip of the day. With JCB Sometimes, Adam.

2620
02:47:58,586 --> 02:48:01,408
So I'm going back to the well with cleaning products.

2621
02:48:02,608 --> 02:48:05,170
Mimi is going back to the well with cleaning products.

2622
02:48:06,351 --> 02:48:10,033
And I have a bag of these right here. This

2623
02:48:10,134 --> 02:48:16,318
is the Blue Land Toilet Bowl Cleaner Tablets. Is this

2624
02:48:16,338 --> 02:48:19,300
something you throw in the tank? Three in one. No,

2625
02:48:19,380 --> 02:48:22,502
you throw it in the toilet bowl, and it foams

2626
02:48:22,682 --> 02:48:25,044
up, or it bubbles up, and then you take a

2627
02:48:25,124 --> 02:48:28,746
brush, and it does an amazing job. This is better

2628
02:48:28,806 --> 02:48:33,550
than using typically Ajax or Comet, or you dump it

2629
02:48:33,630 --> 02:48:35,311
in there, try to get the thing clean. This is

2630
02:48:35,791 --> 02:48:40,554
a very good product. And Blue Land. Especially. And there's

2631
02:48:40,674 --> 02:48:47,179
no plastics. These little tablets are like... You have to

2632
02:48:47,239 --> 02:48:51,121
touch them. There's no plastic around. You don't want microplastics

2633
02:48:51,162 --> 02:48:54,724
going down the drain. And it's especially handy in these

2634
02:48:54,824 --> 02:48:59,127
days of explosive diarrhea. Yeah, there you go. So do

2635
02:48:59,207 --> 02:49:03,050
the trick. Very timely. Lemony, very lemony. I would love

2636
02:49:03,090 --> 02:49:05,992
to know, just like the Patriot Front, I'm now thinking

2637
02:49:06,032 --> 02:49:09,174
this explosive diarrhea is just another hoax. Do we have

2638
02:49:09,334 --> 02:49:13,096
anyone within the No Agenda listening audience who has had

2639
02:49:13,257 --> 02:49:17,319
explosive diarrhea this recent bout of it? Or do you

2640
02:49:17,379 --> 02:49:21,342
know someone? And I want to know the severity of

2641
02:49:21,442 --> 02:49:26,406
it. Was it truly explosive? This is very descriptive, this

2642
02:49:26,486 --> 02:49:32,470
explosive diarrhea. Yeah. And if you... If you email me

2643
02:49:32,750 --> 02:49:35,552
and you give me the description, I will personally send

2644
02:49:35,592 --> 02:49:37,753
you a pack of today's tip of the day, which

2645
02:49:37,913 --> 02:49:43,177
is, name it again, the product. Blue Land Toilet Bowl

I'll be coming home tomorrow. Which means we'll be coming

2654
02:50:15,529 --> 02:50:18,491
to you from the Texas Hill Country for Thursday's show

2655
02:50:19,092 --> 02:50:21,073
before we have to turn around and go back to

2656
02:50:21,453 --> 02:50:27,077
see the baby. Oh, it's great. It's going to be

2657
02:50:27,177 --> 02:50:30,299
great. Thank you all very much for being here, for
