This 40 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,370 came I've got to send you the link has got to go on the show 41 00:01:59,370 --> 00:02:02,370 notes is from USA Today. They took a look at some of the 42 00:02:02,370 --> 00:02:07,890 numbers and to pay rates in average, the average pay rate 43 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,390 compensation 2009 for a federal civilian worker, not a military, 44 00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:18,540 civilian, federal civilian worker. The average is $123,000. 45 00:02:18,539 --> 00:02:22,799 Are you Are you kidding me? That's that's a lot of dough. 46 00:02:22,799 --> 00:02:23,279 Man. 47 00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:27,360 The as the average the average state and local government 48 00:02:27,420 --> 00:02:33,630 nationally, employees 69,913. And the average private 49 00:02:33,630 --> 00:02:37,620 enterprise, the people, the normal people, slaves, the 50 00:02:37,620 --> 00:02:40,020 slaves, slaves 61,000. 51 00:02:41,010 --> 00:02:45,480 Wasn't there some big fractious in California that, like the 52 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,990 state comptroller was making $700,000 a year or something, 53 00:02:48,990 --> 00:02:49,470 and there's a 54 00:02:49,470 --> 00:02:52,860 bunch of people making millions, that federal compensation 55 00:02:52,860 --> 00:03:00,030 advantage has grown from $30,000, a year 2000 to 61 998, 56 00:03:00,060 --> 00:03:04,140 who's counting down? That's the advantage that and in other 57 00:03:04,140 --> 00:03:07,950 words, in other words, they were making 30,000 More than private. 58 00:03:08,190 --> 00:03:12,000 But now it's 61,000, more than private on bilinear. And here's 59 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,890 the kind of the interesting thing about this. And people 60 00:03:13,890 --> 00:03:17,430 should be irked about this is that, you know, with with the 61 00:03:17,430 --> 00:03:21,600 SEIU and all these unions that are that pressure the federal 62 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,600 government to give them more money, those unions are very 63 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,240 effective in government, they should be outlawed. They're 64 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,920 effective. Because when you're a union, nice company doesn't in 65 00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:35,670 the private sector, and you ask for more money that affects the 66 00:03:35,670 --> 00:03:38,340 bottom line, all the bookkeeping has to change. Everything has to 67 00:03:38,340 --> 00:03:41,850 be accounted for. With the government. There's no, you 68 00:03:41,850 --> 00:03:45,150 don't lose your profits, you don't get screwed by giving the 69 00:03:45,150 --> 00:03:47,640 employees more money. You just go to Congress, so we need more 70 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,690 money, printing some up. Hey, Fred, from the private sector. 71 00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:57,450 Yeah. And give it to him. It's value for value. It's $123,000. 72 00:03:57,450 --> 00:04:00,150 If you're working for the foot, that's your average pay in the 73 00:04:00,150 --> 00:04:01,980 federal government 123,000. 74 00:04:02,789 --> 00:04:08,759 I picked a really good week to quit my day job, John. I have 75 00:04:09,779 --> 00:04:13,799 over 300 links in the show notes. I got up at five again, 76 00:04:14,340 --> 00:04:16,830 you're gonna killed our listeners? Well, actually, I 77 00:04:16,830 --> 00:04:20,130 have. I'm going to do something different with the show because 78 00:04:20,130 --> 00:04:24,030 you know, I published them in OPML, which is the outline 79 00:04:24,030 --> 00:04:28,650 process or markup language and XML derivative, but also just in 80 00:04:28,650 --> 00:04:31,380 HTML in the show notes, but I think I'm in the show notes. I'm 81 00:04:31,380 --> 00:04:34,830 going to do some, like some kind of widget thing I can use so 82 00:04:34,830 --> 00:04:39,960 that all of the categories are are collapsed. So that doesn't 83 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,590 take up the whole page. Yeah, I don't know what it does for 84 00:04:43,590 --> 00:04:47,010 indexing or anything, but frankly, I don't care. Just as 85 00:04:47,010 --> 00:04:49,920 long as Oh, this is the link. Thank you. Let me 86 00:04:49,979 --> 00:04:53,219 put that make noise on the show. Yeah. This is the 87 00:04:53,250 --> 00:04:56,280 irritation link. What do we put that under? Let's put that under 88 00:04:56,280 --> 00:05:03,870 finances? Yeah, nice. So uh, yeah, no, but it's man I'm, I'm 89 00:05:03,870 --> 00:05:07,620 happy I've got the time now to do this. It's outrageous that I 90 00:05:07,620 --> 00:05:11,040 wouldn't know where to start the show there is so much happening, 91 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,540 particularly under the headings Ministry of Truth and get mon 92 00:05:15,540 --> 00:05:18,000 nation. It's just outrageous. 93 00:05:20,190 --> 00:05:23,280 Well, I think we should thank our producers before we begin we 94 00:05:23,280 --> 00:05:26,940 have producers good. And as you know, a little, although I'm 95 00:05:26,940 --> 00:05:29,460 still annoyed by this. I mean, actually, you know, I used to 96 00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:31,560 work for the government should have just stayed there. Yeah, 97 00:05:31,590 --> 00:05:33,150 but he's this aggravation. You couldn't 98 00:05:33,150 --> 00:05:35,400 go back. Can't you? Can't you moonlight on this show that 99 00:05:35,850 --> 00:05:37,140 you're working for the government? I can 100 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,270 like but I don't think the government you know, they're, 101 00:05:40,230 --> 00:05:43,530 they have they're a bunch of ajustes they wouldn't hire me. 102 00:05:44,670 --> 00:05:47,040 They there's nobody to answer to you know, they can be ageist. 103 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,380 They don't care. What are they going to do? Somebody calls them 104 00:05:49,380 --> 00:05:52,440 on it. Too bad. Count salt. Yeah. 105 00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:56,190 You can't pound salt. That's illegal to stop it. Can't have 106 00:05:56,190 --> 00:05:57,060 salt a pound. 107 00:05:57,570 --> 00:06:02,340 So Paul couture is responsible for three more order the mint 108 00:06:02,610 --> 00:06:05,730 knights? Yeah, this is the Knights will have to also make 109 00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:14,190 executive producers. Okay. And those are $1,000 each. Victor Oh 110 00:06:14,190 --> 00:06:22,320 stirred doll from Heiniger Sweden. Stephen Lowe from 111 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:29,820 Birmingham, UK. And Glen Mercer from New Orleans, Louisiana. 112 00:06:29,970 --> 00:06:33,270 Now this is from the no agenda coin challenge, which you can 113 00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:37,140 find at no agenda fans.com I believe now there is a coin. So 114 00:06:37,170 --> 00:06:42,180 these are $33.33. There is now a coin sold in 46 of the 115 00:06:42,180 --> 00:06:44,790 continental United States. So we're almost we've almost 116 00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:49,080 blanketed the entire country. And the way it works is every 117 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:54,990 week until almost all 500 of the run arm are sold. And there's 118 00:06:54,990 --> 00:07:01,770 like 20 or 30 left every week $1,000 which is I think what is 119 00:07:01,770 --> 00:07:05,490 it like not 60 or 70% of the of the profits or the proceeds? I 120 00:07:05,490 --> 00:07:08,100 mean, the guys making no money, so he's sending it all to us, 121 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:14,880 which is amazing. One of the coin purchasers is pulled at 122 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:22,740 random receives a exclusive black. What is it? A black no 123 00:07:22,740 --> 00:07:27,150 agenda challenge coin and is made a knight in the order of 124 00:07:27,150 --> 00:07:29,850 the mint. And of course also automatically an executive 125 00:07:29,850 --> 00:07:32,460 producer, which is phenomenal. Hey, where are all the other 126 00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:34,590 initiatives like Sir Paul couture. 127 00:07:35,159 --> 00:07:38,489 And Paul couture, by the way is also an executive producer. 128 00:07:38,550 --> 00:07:42,840 Of course, because yeah, and so the total will be like, like 129 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,790 over $12,000 When he's done. 130 00:07:44,969 --> 00:07:47,999 Yeah, something like that. And he's also blanketed 23 131 00:07:47,999 --> 00:07:52,349 countries. Wow, just know that. So we also have regular 132 00:07:52,349 --> 00:07:55,589 executive producer Charles Jordan, Milwaukee, Wisconsin who 133 00:07:55,589 --> 00:08:00,059 gave us 333 33 He's gonna build it up to a knighthood isn't a 134 00:08:00,059 --> 00:08:04,619 knighthood, Deborah Hutchinson's Mooresville, Indiana 274. 135 00:08:05,070 --> 00:08:09,690 Wait, isn't she from Zydeco shows.

As well as on the homepage of 179 00:10:48,030 --> 00:10:52,800 the the my row guide podcast directory, which apparently is 180 00:10:52,800 --> 00:11:01,620 good for a lot of impressions. And see, there's a new site, but 181 00:11:01,620 --> 00:11:04,320 I don't think it's up yet. But I did like the idea no agenda 182 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,680 words.com. So I wanted to mention that to spur on the 183 00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:10,800 producer who was working on that producer project, whenever we 184 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,060 come up with a word like we had, what do we have the other the 185 00:11:15,060 --> 00:11:19,470 other day, we had expunge, you know, just good words to use to 186 00:11:19,470 --> 00:11:23,880 throw out a cocktail parties. So I'm hoping that gets rolling. 187 00:11:24,180 --> 00:11:29,640 And I just want to call out Nokia as the absolute douchebags 188 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,840 of the week. So there's been an initiative to try and get a 189 00:11:35,790 --> 00:11:40,230 Nokia app, which they have this little widget at the Ovi Store 190 00:11:40,290 --> 00:11:44,160 Ouvea at the ovary store over at Nokia and you basically just 191 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,900 hand off your your podcast feed URL, and then it's supposed to 192 00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:53,250 bake a little widget that you can load on your phone. And this 193 00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:55,470 has been going on for how long now? John? This is like two 194 00:11:55,470 --> 00:11:56,670 months, three months? 195 00:11:57,060 --> 00:11:58,440 It's been a while yeah. 196 00:11:58,860 --> 00:12:02,460 So they finally so Afters like Yeah, we had air via Yeah, 197 00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:07,350 I don't want to get into it. But oh, they lose like a rudderless 198 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:07,590 ship. 199 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,740 I lost you there for a second. You said you didn't want to get 200 00:12:10,740 --> 00:12:11,190 into it. 201 00:12:11,670 --> 00:12:12,390 But apparently 202 00:12:14,550 --> 00:12:16,950 Well, the only thing I thought was funny is that we were 203 00:12:16,980 --> 00:12:20,070 rejected for a number of reasons. But the number one 204 00:12:20,070 --> 00:12:23,970 reason that and this email just came in today for offensive 205 00:12:23,970 --> 00:12:28,710 content. And offensive language such as the F word the S word 206 00:12:28,710 --> 00:12:30,030 and the N word. 207 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,920 I'm like that's an out and out lie. Yeah, unless done out of 208 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,720 our way not to use the N word 209 00:12:36,810 --> 00:12:39,690 unless the new N word is basically Nokia. 210 00:12:40,650 --> 00:12:42,300 Oh, that could be Yeah. 211 00:12:44,130 --> 00:12:48,120 I just thought that was pretty unbelievable. Like wow, anyway, 212 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,730 and I wanted to test something on your John before we get 213 00:12:50,730 --> 00:12:53,130 rolling here. Because I don't know 214 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,140 Nokia's now the the the n words they police in podcasts of 215 00:12:58,230 --> 00:12:59,580 language? Of course. 216 00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:04,530 Of course. Why Shut up slave lending your business 217 00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:07,830 get? We're on the iPhone. They don't pull these podcasts for 218 00:13:07,830 --> 00:13:10,560 language. They're in there. They're more you're crazy about 219 00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:13,650 this sort of thing. Yeah. Nokia got a hair up. It says I don't 220 00:13:13,650 --> 00:13:13,980 know. 221 00:13:14,039 --> 00:13:16,649 I don't know. But I had to call them out. I want to test 222 00:13:16,649 --> 00:13:19,529 something on you before we move ahead, John. This is an app and 223 00:13:19,529 --> 00:13:23,069 I don't know if it works. It's called stealth tones. And what 224 00:13:23,069 --> 00:13:27,359 this does is it emits a tones that apparently at certain age 225 00:13:27,359 --> 00:13:29,279 ranges you cannot hear it does 226 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:30,360 work. We've already tested it. 227 00:13:30,780 --> 00:13:32,250 When did we test I didn't test it. 228 00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:35,370 When did we and now I'm talking about weed people on my side of 229 00:13:35,370 --> 00:13:38,400 the of the virtual fencer we have tested it. 230 00:13:38,550 --> 00:13:40,830 Well, I just want to test it with the chat room for a second. 231 00:13:41,460 --> 00:13:45,870 Okay, so if you are under 24 You should be hearing this 232 00:13:46,619 --> 00:13:49,889 a second. Do you hear anything? No, but you're running it at 233 00:13:49,889 --> 00:13:52,319 such a low bit rate as possible. That's not coming through 234 00:13:52,319 --> 00:13:52,859 anyway. 235 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,980 I don't know about that. That bid right has nothing to do with 236 00:13:55,980 --> 00:13:58,770 the well maybe it does. Sure it does. It compresses the 237 00:13:58,770 --> 00:14:01,800 frequency let's say this is if you're younger than 30 You 238 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,320 should be able to hear this. I don't hear it. This is if you're 239 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,450 younger than Mickey can hear these by the way if you're 240 00:14:06,450 --> 00:14:06,750 younger 241 00:14:06,750 --> 00:14:09,300 in the room there but she can't hear it coming over the 242 00:14:09,330 --> 00:14:12,810 net. I don't know about that. This is 39 Wait, yeah, see this 243 00:14:12,810 --> 00:14:14,700 work? That's six. Do you hear that one, right? 244 00:14:14,940 --> 00:14:20,550 No. I can barely hear you. I have to turn up the speakers if 245 00:14:20,550 --> 00:14:22,590 I'm gonna hear this because I forget about 246 00:14:22,590 --> 00:14:26,130 it. Nevermind. Hey, let's thank our executive producers for the 247 00:14:26,130 --> 00:14:31,050 show for episode 225 Victor Oster dolls, Steven Lowe, Glen 248 00:14:31,050 --> 00:14:34,440 Mercer Paul couture, Sir Paul, I should say Charles Jordan and 249 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,770 Steven pals mocker. Steven Pels markers Associate Executive 250 00:14:37,770 --> 00:14:40,950 producers, Michael Birch and Deborah Hutchinson. As you know, 251 00:14:40,950 --> 00:14:44,010 this is a real credit and you should start a couple of people 252 00:14:44,010 --> 00:14:46,950 here in this list gonna start stacking them up. And it's a no 253 00:14:46,950 --> 00:14:51,210 difference between having an executive producer credit on CSI 254 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,270 as it is on no agenda. It's an official Hollywood credit and of 255 00:14:54,270 --> 00:14:57,780 course, we will vouch for you everybody else out there. Go out 256 00:14:57,780 --> 00:15:00,330 and tell your kids to propagate the formula. It's This 257 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,800 formula is this. We go out for yet people in the mouth 258 00:15:13,620 --> 00:15:15,510 Alright, let's do it everybody stay with me 259 00:15:24,330 --> 00:15:30,270 well, I'm figuring there's a couple things we can talk about 260 00:15:30,270 --> 00:15:33,630 right off the bat. But I'd like to save some of them. There's 261 00:15:33,630 --> 00:15:38,730 just a ton of stuff going on. And not one, but two to to the 262 00:15:38,730 --> 00:15:41,640 head moments this past past week. 263 00:15:44,220 --> 00:15:45,360 What was the second one? 264 00:15:45,540 --> 00:15:48,870 Well, oh, the second one was actually the first one. Of 265 00:15:48,870 --> 00:15:55,470 course, we'll have to talk about Senator Ted Stevens. Yeah. The 266 00:15:55,470 --> 00:15:58,890 first one came early in the week, Matt Simmons. 267 00:15:59,970 --> 00:16:02,880 That's yeah, right. Yeah, that's him as well. That's 268 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,610 not a very nice way to talk about someone who was just blown 269 00:16:05,610 --> 00:16:08,430 off. That's not very nice. You 270 00:16:08,430 --> 00:16:10,320 know, what's weird about the Simmons story is that there were 271 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,900 three reports and they're all different on how he died. 272 00:16:13,170 --> 00:16:15,780 Yeah, it started off with a phrase a heart attack, and it 273 00:16:15,780 --> 00:16:18,810 was in a swimming pool, and then it was in his hot tub. And we 274 00:16:18,810 --> 00:16:22,650 know that the hot tub of course, is the the new preferred method 275 00:16:23,010 --> 00:16:29,280 for the, for the CIA of offering somebody you know, the you can 276 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,330 either drown in your hot tub or you can pull the cover over and 277 00:16:33,330 --> 00:16:34,170 suffocate. 278 00:16:35,220 --> 00:16:38,640 Yeah, because it's a common thing you want to cover over 279 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,530 your own hot tub while you're in it. 280 00:16:41,550 --> 00:16:46,890 So Matt Simmons, of course, famously, was criticizing BP for 281 00:16:46,890 --> 00:16:50,880 the oil spill and the government and BP for the handling of the 282 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,510 oil spill. He's also by the way, I think the propagator of the 283 00:16:54,510 --> 00:16:58,470 meme of peak oil that which I personally did not subscribe to 284 00:16:58,650 --> 00:17:01,770 well, he propagated Peak Oil. He also said that by the end of 285 00:17:01,770 --> 00:17:05,940 July, BP would far file for bankruptcy. The guy has been I 286 00:17:05,940 --> 00:17:09,960 have a tape of him in 2006 talking about oil selling for 287 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:16,620 $300 a barrel by 2007. The guy is just a troublemaker he's 288 00:17:16,620 --> 00:17:21,510 dead. Yeah, well, I think you know, in this case, it's we get 289 00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:26,580 less disinformation now. Well, then maybe have some theory 290 00:17:26,580 --> 00:17:28,470 about why they killed him because I don't see it. 291 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,040 I think you I think you just you call it he was just a 292 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,260 troublemaker and and it's like enough of this guy because he 293 00:17:34,260 --> 00:17:37,920 was on television all over the place. Nah, they just they 294 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,680 couldn't call him enough of an idiot or a kook because he came 295 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,660 up with that whole Peak Oil thing and they just had to get 296 00:17:42,660 --> 00:17:43,170 rid of him. 297 00:17:44,250 --> 00:17:45,720 Yeah, maybe. Yeah, I 298 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,970 think so. I think this is a clear Come on, John. This is a 299 00:17:47,970 --> 00:17:50,040 clear case of to to the head. 300 00:17:50,130 --> 00:17:53,370 Well, I mean, it fits all the earmarks. I mean, all that was 301 00:17:53,370 --> 00:17:56,820 missing was being a hot in the hot tub in a small plane. Yeah. 302 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:58,890 And committing suicide. 303 00:18:00,090 --> 00:18:05,070 Let's save the Stevens crash because I have I definitely have 304 00:18:05,070 --> 00:18:07,890 a theory on that. And it's not what you think it would be. 305 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,890 Okay, well, good, because I have a theory to beat your theory. 306 00:18:11,850 --> 00:18:13,050 Well, you want to you want 307 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,040 no no, no, no. You 308 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,950 want to get into it now boys that would no no, no, let's do 309 00:18:16,950 --> 00:18:20,940 something else. Let's, let's let's ease into the show. And 310 00:18:21,300 --> 00:18:23,040 there's plenty of other things to talk about. 311 00:18:23,850 --> 00:18:28,620 Some poor German woman was killed in Union Square while a 312 00:18:28,620 --> 00:18:32,910 couple of gangsters were having to shoot out. Really? Yeah. 313 00:18:33,870 --> 00:18:37,020 Yeah. And now they apparently they can't charge any fight they 314 00:18:37,020 --> 00:18:39,690 got cameras all over the place. Right. This is our great cameras 315 00:18:39,690 --> 00:18:42,690 society spying on everything we do. You mean the gunshot 316 00:18:42,690 --> 00:18:45,930 detectors? Yeah, the gunshot detectors. And of course they 317 00:18:45,930 --> 00:18:48,420 could they got they got videos of all this stuff. But they 318 00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:49,710 can't identify anybody. So 319 00:18:49,860 --> 00:18:53,130 Union Square San Francisco Union Square. Yeah. Like 320 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:59,310 on Gary and Mason. Wow. And this is the by the way, so I'm 321 00:18:59,310 --> 00:19:01,650 warning people out there. This is a public service that we do 322 00:19:01,650 --> 00:19:05,520 on the no agenda show. Don't go to San Francisco as a tourist. 323 00:19:05,700 --> 00:19:08,970 Especially if you're German. You're gonna get shot 324 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:13,890 to get to get off your expendable if you'd like 325 00:19:15,570 --> 00:19:18,570 an anniversary. She's you know, with her husband, and they were 326 00:19:18,570 --> 00:19:21,090 here to celebrate and all the restaurants you just takes takes 327 00:19:21,090 --> 00:19:24,300 one step outside the hotel, which is right in Union Square 328 00:19:24,300 --> 00:19:27,690 and gets gunned down in San Francisco. This is not a place 329 00:19:27,690 --> 00:19:28,140 to be 330 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,240 in nor is it a place to be when it comes to the new parking 331 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,670 meters. Have you been following this? We've talked about parking 332 00:19:35,670 --> 00:19:35,910 meter 333 00:19:35,910 --> 00:19:39,660 thing is a complete fiasco. But don't get me started. 334 00:19:39,690 --> 00:19:42,720 Well, I got to get you started because now the new smart 335 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,460 parking meters are going to do so called demand responsive 336 00:19:47,460 --> 00:19:48,150 pricing. 337 00:19:49,290 --> 00:19:53,040 And which I challenge I challenge this bullcrap. Because 338 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,280 I'll tell you right now, the whole area around that to DiMeo 339 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,400 offices. There's millions of these parking meters. Nobody 340 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,460 parks in because there's free parking down the street so that 341 00:20:02,460 --> 00:20:06,450 things are all empty. So by that, by virtue of that theory, 342 00:20:06,510 --> 00:20:08,730 I should be able to walk up to one of those meters and put a 343 00:20:08,730 --> 00:20:12,810 nickel in and get an hour, it's still five minutes for 25 cents. 344 00:20:13,319 --> 00:20:17,339 So the smarter parking meters, which you'll be able to pay with 345 00:20:17,339 --> 00:20:22,469 a credit or debit card and soon with a special SFMTA card will 346 00:20:22,469 --> 00:20:25,769 automatically adjust parking rates based upon supply and 347 00:20:25,769 --> 00:20:28,829 demand. Which means according to this article, you would pay 348 00:20:28,829 --> 00:20:33,809 anywhere between 25 cents an hour Right? to $6 an hour, 349 00:20:33,839 --> 00:20:38,909 right? They don't even give the real top rate here. 350 00:20:39,330 --> 00:20:44,910 $6 an hour is what it is around the MVNO offices 20, which I 351 00:20:44,910 --> 00:20:48,690 believe is correct. If I do my math, right, yeah. And they are 352 00:20:48,690 --> 00:20:51,090 there's nobody parking in these things. How come the price 353 00:20:51,090 --> 00:20:51,870 hasn't gone down? 354 00:20:51,900 --> 00:20:55,410 Have you tried it when when it was empty? Yeah, that's the 355 00:20:55,410 --> 00:20:58,500 same, really. And this is the new smart parking meter. 356 00:20:58,530 --> 00:21:01,260 Well, I mean, there are smart they get the thing I don't know, 357 00:21:01,290 --> 00:21:03,720 that looks me got the little thing where you stick a card in. 358 00:21:03,750 --> 00:21:06,450 Yeah, they have the little bubble thing to let that sit, 359 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,960 they have sensors in the street. Yeah, to make sure that you 360 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,780 actually move your car because you can't actually put money in 361 00:21:12,780 --> 00:21:15,630 the meter and then put more money in the meter later. I 362 00:21:15,630 --> 00:21:18,420 mean, it's just a scam, parking meters in the whole parking 363 00:21:18,420 --> 00:21:21,480 system was originally designed to keep traffic flowing. So the 364 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,210 idea was, you'd park your car. And you were you made a 365 00:21:24,210 --> 00:21:26,790 gentleman's agreement with the city. And you still see this 366 00:21:26,790 --> 00:21:30,450 with the blue discs and France and elsewhere. You make a 367 00:21:30,450 --> 00:21:33,000 gentleman's agreement that you park and your will be gone after 368 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,210 an hour or so depending on what the rates you know how long they 369 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,050 let you stay in so your idea was you'd Park and then you'd go and 370 00:21:40,050 --> 00:21:43,620 you park you go it was never meant to be a source of income 371 00:21:43,620 --> 00:21:46,560 for the city. And then some bean counters showed up so you know, 372 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,670 we can make money off of these meters. Yeah, jack up the price. 373 00:21:51,810 --> 00:21:54,000 All right, I won't get you started. 374 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:57,930 They should take the meter. You know, they've tried to put 375 00:21:57,930 --> 00:22:01,320 meters in the little town I live in over and over again. And then 376 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,080 the voters get pissed off and they we have no meters in this. 377 00:22:06,090 --> 00:22:08,790 Did I just lose your parking meter should be removed from 378 00:22:08,790 --> 00:22:12,660 every city? It for one thing. It's just overhead that costs 379 00:22:12,660 --> 00:22:15,810 money. It I don't even think it pays for itself that you get you 380 00:22:15,810 --> 00:22:18,870 get some more government employees driving making 129 381 00:22:18,870 --> 00:22:22,710 bucks 129,000 A year driving around in a truck 382 00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:25,830 is ridiculous. Get rid of them. All right. 383 00:22:26,580 --> 00:22:31,140 Portugal, starting today has the dubious honor of being the first 384 00:22:31,140 --> 00:22:36,090 country in the Western world. To have a law that imposes limits 385 00:22:36,090 --> 00:22:38,310 on salt content in bread. 386 00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:41,430 Finally, right baseless bread, 387 00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:45,180 they finally taken it further than any other country is of 388 00:22:45,180 --> 00:22:48,720 course being part of the Codex Alimentarius and the assault on 389 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:55,410 salt. produce produce. And here it is, produce and bread with 390 00:22:55,410 --> 00:23:00,300 more than 1.4 grams of salt shall be punished with fines of 391 00:23:00,300 --> 00:23:05,670 up to 5000 euros. Brother, how do you test that? How do you 392 00:23:05,670 --> 00:23:08,670 test how much salt is in bread after it's already baked? 393 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,690 Oh, it's not not hard. Really? No, no, you can just dissolve it 394 00:23:12,690 --> 00:23:16,650 in a limited amount of water and do it do it easy test that 395 00:23:16,650 --> 00:23:20,820 probably is easy to do. It's going to dissolve into the into 396 00:23:20,820 --> 00:23:24,270 the liquid that you use. And as you titrate it with something if 397 00:23:24,270 --> 00:23:26,760 you're how much salt there is. It's probably brain dead easy. 398 00:23:26,820 --> 00:23:31,020 Is. Is that enough? 1.4 grams of salt. Is that enough to make it 399 00:23:31,020 --> 00:23:36,390 taste good? Or? I doubt it. There you go. You are officially 400 00:23:36,390 --> 00:23:39,000 the first country and Gitmo nation to have your food 401 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,110 actually altered? 402 00:23:40,439 --> 00:23:43,049 Well, you know, the poor Chinese or you know, amongst those group 403 00:23:43,049 --> 00:23:43,799 the pigs, 404 00:23:44,820 --> 00:23:46,140 Portugal, Italy, 405 00:23:46,170 --> 00:23:53,250 Ireland, yeah, Greece and Spain. And they are probably just 406 00:23:53,250 --> 00:23:56,280 knuckling under to anything because they they they took big 407 00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,060 advantage of becoming an EU member and modernize their 408 00:24:00,060 --> 00:24:02,790 entire country is gorgeous over there a great place to visit if 409 00:24:02,790 --> 00:24:05,760 you want to vacation, go there instead of San Francisco would 410 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,670 be better off and the food will be better for sure don't get 411 00:24:08,670 --> 00:24:12,150 shot and you won't get shot. But so they're probably just you 412 00:24:12,150 --> 00:24:14,100 know, they're going along with any programs just so the 413 00:24:14,220 --> 00:24:17,130 pressures taken off of them, you know, so nobody's going to start 414 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,370 looking at them to bust them but you know, bust them down like 415 00:24:20,370 --> 00:24:23,910 they did with Spain. Well, the United put up with this crap, 416 00:24:24,090 --> 00:24:26,610 they'll probably just cheat the system. I get this sense that 417 00:24:26,610 --> 00:24:32,130 the Portuguese are old school. You know, they think they pull a 418 00:24:32,130 --> 00:24:35,340 little like, you know, yeah, whatever at the test and they 419 00:24:35,340 --> 00:24:36,690 make one loaf and those salts. 420 00:24:37,470 --> 00:24:39,840 Roll we'll see. 5000 euros is a pretty 421 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,890 random inspections from the grocery store. And then you say 422 00:24:43,890 --> 00:24:46,320 hey, they lie. Somebody put salt on it. It's bullcrap. here 423 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,250 here's the salt. Here's the salt free loaf. And is an average 424 00:24:50,250 --> 00:24:53,400 salt. They can make a couple of salt free loads for people can 425 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,620 have any salt and then make them salt it up stuff. 426 00:24:55,650 --> 00:24:59,130 Of course the good news is drugs are legal in Portugal, so yeah, 427 00:24:59,130 --> 00:25:06,360 well There's always a silver lining. The United Nations has 428 00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:09,630 come out. They of course, are the ones behind the whole Codex 429 00:25:09,630 --> 00:25:13,200 Alimentarius push. And they're basically saying that you know, 430 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,250 we really can't go on like this eating pigs and cows, we need to 431 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,170 eat insects that 432 00:25:19,469 --> 00:25:21,179 oh, yeah, you beat me to that story. 433 00:25:21,209 --> 00:25:26,459 That's it's a great story, read them. He bugs, Hot Pockets, it 434 00:25:26,459 --> 00:25:27,929 filled with bugs. That's the 435 00:25:29,100 --> 00:25:35,580 story, which gets to me is like this. This is all part of a 436 00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:40,560 vegan, global warming agenda to keep us from eating meat. 437 00:25:40,860 --> 00:25:43,650 By the way, who says that hot pecans aren't already filled 438 00:25:43,650 --> 00:25:44,370 with bugs? 439 00:25:44,460 --> 00:25:48,300 That could be? I don't know, you'd have to test for it. It's 440 00:25:48,540 --> 00:25:51,150 just brain dead easy. So anyway, the 441 00:25:51,870 --> 00:25:54,750 Yeah, so it's against meat? That's correct. It's a gets it 442 00:25:54,750 --> 00:25:55,080 all. 443 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,650 It's all about meat, vegetarians and the vegans. 444 00:25:59,130 --> 00:26:02,730 Wait, there's more to it. Sorry. It's there's more to it. It's 445 00:26:03,030 --> 00:26:07,770 let me just tell you the exact statement. It's to cut levels of 446 00:26:07,770 --> 00:26:11,070 meat consumption worldwide as part of the United Nations 447 00:26:11,070 --> 00:26:15,600 commitment to stamp out famine and, and cut global warming. 448 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:20,100 Yeah, sciences. Let them eat bugs. 449 00:26:20,220 --> 00:26:24,840 Yeah. So so they come here. Can you imagine the meetings are 450 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,360 going to introduce this to the public? I don't think some 451 00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:31,020 people are going to like the idea of eating bugs. Well, you 452 00:26:31,020 --> 00:26:33,750 know, I think if we just kind of slowly bring him into it. 453 00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:36,060 There'll be eaten bugs, you know, we just had to, and the 454 00:26:36,060 --> 00:26:38,640 funny thing was No, not you mentioned this, I realized that 455 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,960 I got a package about those six months ago. And I don't know if 456 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,420 I don't think I mentioned on the show. I didn't think about it. 457 00:26:45,750 --> 00:26:48,810 But it was some green initiative, sending out 458 00:26:49,110 --> 00:26:53,670 chocolate coated grasshoppers. Yep. And so I got like this 459 00:26:53,670 --> 00:26:57,270 package, chocolate coated grasshoppers, and my daughter 460 00:26:57,270 --> 00:27:02,820 and her friend. They both ate one. Yeah, and said that they 461 00:27:02,820 --> 00:27:05,970 were delicious. They were delicious. They were they said 462 00:27:05,970 --> 00:27:08,220 they were good there Chris like eating. It's like eating a 463 00:27:08,220 --> 00:27:12,390 KitKat bar. It's got that crunchy. Crunchy. Yeah, so it's 464 00:27:12,390 --> 00:27:18,390 like a KitKat with a real cat inside. Anyway, it was like this 465 00:27:18,390 --> 00:27:22,470 little bug and I refused to eat it and it had like green and had 466 00:27:22,470 --> 00:27:25,530 a bunch of green logos. And it's good for you. It's good for the 467 00:27:25,530 --> 00:27:26,970 environment, all this other crap. 468 00:27:27,900 --> 00:27:32,430 Lots of awards. Well, you can I mean, this is being integrated 469 00:27:32,430 --> 00:27:34,980 already, by the way on selectors telling 470 00:27:34,980 --> 00:27:37,350 the people what they what they what these governments really 471 00:27:37,350 --> 00:27:42,060 think of you out there, you're eating worms and bugs and 472 00:27:42,060 --> 00:27:42,870 roaches. 473 00:27:43,530 --> 00:27:47,010 I am telling you in our lifetime, John, we will see hot 474 00:27:47,010 --> 00:27:51,240 pockets with bugs. And it'll be and it'll have labels of 475 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:56,970 greenness on it. But from edible.com You can now get a 476 00:27:56,970 --> 00:28:03,210 pack of giant toasted ants. Hmm, yes, they are an inch long these 477 00:28:03,210 --> 00:28:07,320 toasted ants. And they have a nutty bacon like taste with an 478 00:28:07,350 --> 00:28:12,090 earthy spicy kick. They are according to the marketing 479 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,050 to famine mode. This seems to be you know, this will have 480 00:28:16,050 --> 00:28:21,120 something to it's the perfect party snack books for the no 481 00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:23,880 agenda book club. And the rest of these people have documented 482 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,510 our entertainment site. Yeah, it's called I have to get let me 483 00:28:27,510 --> 00:28:32,190 get the author, but the book title is called unmentionable 484 00:28:32,220 --> 00:28:36,690 cuisine. And this is done from I believe was the University of 485 00:28:36,690 --> 00:28:40,620 North Carolina Press. And it's a cookbook that is huge. It's 486 00:28:40,620 --> 00:28:44,160 pretty big. And it's a duck this this professor documented every 487 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:51,000 recipe in the world for like dog and rat, and and cat and various 488 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,660 bugs and worms and strange things that you wouldn't think 489 00:28:54,660 --> 00:28:59,520 you could eat. And in fact, most of the recipes for the rat were 490 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,130 developed by the French during the French Revolution where the 491 00:29:02,130 --> 00:29:05,910 French had to eat something other than nothing to eat. And 492 00:29:05,910 --> 00:29:08,760 so they were started eating the rats of Paris and some of these 493 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,550 recipes are pretty interesting. I mean because the French you 494 00:29:11,550 --> 00:29:13,440 know, they if you're gonna eat rat, you might as well make it 495 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:13,950 taste good. 496 00:29:14,009 --> 00:29:16,799 When we get get into the show a little bit further on. I think 497 00:29:16,799 --> 00:29:19,139 there is some validity to this and I think there's some 498 00:29:19,139 --> 00:29:22,259 reasoning behind the fact that they're starting to get us 499 00:29:22,259 --> 00:29:26,519 accustomed to the idea of eating bugs because we do have some 500 00:29:26,519 --> 00:29:29,369 major food problems on the horizon and if you look at the 501 00:29:29,369 --> 00:29:33,569 futures of wheat you know there's the we are on the verge 502 00:29:33,569 --> 00:29:37,169 of some very very significant problems, particularly when you 503 00:29:37,169 --> 00:29:39,509 look at the weather world right worldwide right now. 504 00:29:39,750 --> 00:29:42,030 Well your crystal wheat fields are Russia Bernie so they're 505 00:29:42,030 --> 00:29:43,980 going to stop their wheat exports. So you might want to 506 00:29:43,980 --> 00:29:47,460 think about buying some wheat futures. The by the way, I think 507 00:29:47,460 --> 00:29:48,870 and then that thing the next thing they're gonna do is 508 00:29:48,870 --> 00:29:56,040 they're gonna have an eating boogers. Juveniles 509 00:29:59,100 --> 00:30:02,130 bug pockets Now from the people who brought you hot pockets, we 510 00:30:02,130 --> 00:30:06,900 bring you button pockets. Yum, great party snack. tasty and 511 00:30:06,900 --> 00:30:12,210 good for you. But yeah, burgers are next. No problem. 512 00:30:14,250 --> 00:30:16,620 Most of the people in the United Nations already do that, by the 513 00:30:16,620 --> 00:30:17,910 way, eat burgers. 514 00:30:19,980 --> 00:30:28,710 So I noticed in your clips you didn't have anything about Naomi 515 00:30:28,710 --> 00:30:29,280 Campbell. 516 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,780 Yeah, I know. It's a shame. I kind of just didn't even pay any 517 00:30:33,780 --> 00:30:35,610 attention. What's the latest? Well, let 518 00:30:35,610 --> 00:30:43,710 me just fire up. So, Naomi Campbell, we now have full 519 00:30:43,710 --> 00:30:48,840 testimony from her. And also from her former agent, Carol 520 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:53,520 white. And this thing is that you could turn this into a into 521 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,520 a mini series. I mean, literally a movie of the week. It's so 522 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,480 amazing. But of course, the best testimony comes from Mia Farrow 523 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,090 and I just like to play some of that at the International 524 00:31:03,090 --> 00:31:08,010 Criminal Court in The Hague. I might remind you at this 525 00:31:08,010 --> 00:31:11,490 breakfast, by the way, who are all these people, these judges 526 00:31:11,550 --> 00:31:13,140 on this Starfleet Command? 527 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,750 Did we play this last show? No, we didn't play me 528 00:31:15,750 --> 00:31:21,630 a pharaoh. Did we play meat? No, no, it was my wish had come true 529 00:31:21,630 --> 00:31:22,770 that she would testify. 530 00:31:23,130 --> 00:31:25,050 Yeah, and that was a clip. No. 531 00:31:26,820 --> 00:31:28,710 I don't think so. Oh, that's 532 00:31:28,710 --> 00:31:30,810 okay. We can play it again. Well, but But let me ask you 533 00:31:30,810 --> 00:31:32,250 this. You always call in me on these. 534 00:31:32,460 --> 00:31:37,710 I may be wrong, but it's it's just too nutty. But this 535 00:31:37,740 --> 00:31:41,130 International Criminal Court who are these judges? Who are these 536 00:31:41,130 --> 00:31:45,360 people? You know, they're wearing like red capes that they 537 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,280 wear red, red garbs 538 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,720 Yeah, they're wearing costumes is a kangaroo court. It's 539 00:31:51,750 --> 00:31:54,510 ridiculous in the fact that anybody pays any attention or 540 00:31:54,510 --> 00:31:57,330 takes it seriously or thinks we should be members and and be 541 00:31:57,330 --> 00:32:00,480 subject to their edicts is beyond me. 542 00:32:00,690 --> 00:32:05,190 Well, just just in case I we already played me a pharaoh. Let 543 00:32:05,190 --> 00:32:08,910 me play you the testimony from her former agent Carol white, 544 00:32:09,150 --> 00:32:14,070 and the rebuffing that goes on from Charles Taylor. Evil 545 00:32:14,070 --> 00:32:17,280 warlords. Definitely didn't play those attorney. No, we didn't 546 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:19,530 play that. Nor did we actually play Naomi Campbell's full 547 00:32:19,530 --> 00:32:21,810 testimony, which is just hilarious. I've 548 00:32:21,810 --> 00:32:24,480 been looking for finding the full testimony I have not found 549 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,010 yeah, I've gotten most 550 00:32:26,010 --> 00:32:30,960 of it. So this is from Sky News. And here is what's her name? 551 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:31,860 Again, Carol 552 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,970 arrangements at the end of the dinner, that some men had been 553 00:32:35,970 --> 00:32:40,110 dispatched to Johannesburg, which was about two hours away, 554 00:32:40,110 --> 00:32:44,070 I believe, to collect some diamond. And to bring them back 555 00:32:44,070 --> 00:32:45,150 to the guest house 556 00:32:46,620 --> 00:32:51,420 was the discussion about the arrangement at the dinner table. 557 00:32:51,660 --> 00:32:58,830 So this is the the lawyer for Taylor, the guy who was using 558 00:32:58,830 --> 00:33:01,350 blood diamonds to buy weapons, 559 00:33:02,310 --> 00:33:06,900 maybe with Naomi, but I knew about that, after the dinner 560 00:33:06,930 --> 00:33:09,750 when we stood up and talked with the minister of defense. And I 561 00:33:09,750 --> 00:33:13,530 believe Charles Taylor was there for a second, about the 562 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,680 logistics of getting these diamonds to Naomi Campbell. 563 00:33:16,860 --> 00:33:21,210 Did you hear any discussion about arrangements at the dinner 564 00:33:21,210 --> 00:33:26,940 table?

Did 565 00:33:26,940 --> 00:33:32,550 you hear any arrangements being made at the dinner table as to 566 00:33:32,550 --> 00:33:34,800 how the diamonds were to be delivered? 567 00:33:36,300 --> 00:33:40,260 I heard about the diamonds being delivered. And it was my 568 00:33:40,260 --> 00:33:44,940 understanding it already started. The men had already 569 00:33:44,940 --> 00:33:49,680 started on their journey.

And I opened 616 00:36:13,110 --> 00:36:19,410 my door. And two men. Were there and gave me a pouch. The pouch 617 00:36:19,410 --> 00:36:20,580 said a gift for you. 618 00:36:23,010 --> 00:36:24,810 We ran this lesson. No what time? 619 00:36:25,770 --> 00:36:28,590 No. Well, people can go. I mean, there's there's a lot of gems in 620 00:36:28,590 --> 00:36:31,470 here. We didn't run the whole thing. But it's okay. I can tell 621 00:36:31,470 --> 00:36:32,370 your board. It's fine. 622 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,940 It's okay. Really? She beats around the bush. 623 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,360 Yeah. Anyway, the thing that really gets me it's just looking 624 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,630 at this footage and looking at this court, what is this court? 625 00:36:45,630 --> 00:36:49,140 Who are these people who died and made them God? And why do we 626 00:36:49,140 --> 00:36:52,860 have to swear on the Bible? You know, is this a court that by 627 00:36:52,860 --> 00:36:55,890 whose laws How does it work? And well, we know why it's in the 628 00:36:55,890 --> 00:36:59,670 Netherlands. Because of course, that is a lead Central. But it's 629 00:36:59,670 --> 00:37:03,330 just, it's just unbelievable. Unbelievable. They're there get 630 00:37:03,330 --> 00:37:04,260 ups and it's just, 631 00:37:06,750 --> 00:37:10,740 ya know, I find the whole thing abhorrent? 632 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:13,830 Yes, it's a great word. 633 00:37:14,940 --> 00:37:19,410 Anyway. What's gonna come of it, and what are they going to do? 634 00:37:19,410 --> 00:37:22,770 And what's Why is Charles Taylor locked up by these people in The 635 00:37:22,770 --> 00:37:23,310 Hague? 636 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:29,190 Yeah. And how come Nelson Mandela gets a free ticket? I 637 00:37:29,190 --> 00:37:33,180 mean, it was at his house. Yeah. What crime was committed in his 638 00:37:33,180 --> 00:37:36,120 house him in a crime committed in his house? 639 00:37:36,779 --> 00:37:40,619 Yeah, I don't know. Next, 640 00:37:40,860 --> 00:37:45,120 okay, let me hop on the Haiti train for a moment. Then a 641 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,890 little more information about Wyclef shawl. And the aircraft 642 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,520 because of course, that's where some of my expertise lies. This 643 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:58,920 is when he was departing onto the tarmac in his politician get 644 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,400 up as he is now. More than likely going to become the 645 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,930 president of Haiti. He stepped out of a Gulfstream four with 646 00:38:06,930 --> 00:38:11,940 tail number two number 254 Golf alpha. So I've gotten a little 647 00:38:11,940 --> 00:38:17,580 more information. This is actually owned, by or leased by, 648 00:38:17,580 --> 00:38:19,890 I'm sorry, we know it's owned by the Gulfstream corporation but 649 00:38:19,890 --> 00:38:25,860 leased by net jets Middle East limited. Now, that should ring a 650 00:38:25,860 --> 00:38:31,440 couple bells. And I've looked at some of the passenger manifests 651 00:38:32,100 --> 00:38:38,460 it is often used by Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan and and 652 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:46,860 and who Bill Clinton. Oh, that's hilarious. Good call. Yeah, 653 00:38:46,890 --> 00:38:50,640 it's like so find that out. Well, there's so much 654 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,430 information is available. I'm sure they'll lock this down now 655 00:38:53,430 --> 00:38:55,650 so that you can't find any more information on this plane will 656 00:38:55,650 --> 00:39:00,990 become a black plane. Or he just won't use it anymore. But yeah, 657 00:39:01,020 --> 00:39:04,440 this is you know, it's very obvious and what Sean Penn in 658 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:09,120 eloquently said is true. The guy is sponsored by big corporations 659 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,360 big oil that's what the whole Haiti thing is about. They've 660 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,960 sold off pieces of the island actual pieces of the island to 661 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,200 an oil refinery. We've uncovered that on previous episode of no 662 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:24,120 agenda to create a huge refinery ships can pull right up no 663 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,660 problem. And Billy Boy Clinton will be responsible for all the 664 00:39:27,660 --> 00:39:29,070 nice hotels and casinos 665 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,390 on the north shore on the North Shore. What's the does Sean Penn 666 00:39:33,390 --> 00:39:34,980 bring up the Clinton stuff? 667 00:39:35,219 --> 00:39:40,289 No, no, he didn't. He just said he just said corporations which 668 00:39:40,289 --> 00:39:40,349 I 669 00:39:40,349 --> 00:39:42,929 think although he didn't he doesn't see the Clinton 670 00:39:42,929 --> 00:39:44,039 connection any of this. 671 00:39:44,340 --> 00:39:48,690 I mean, you mind but you know, he flakes out he flakes out a 672 00:39:48,690 --> 00:39:53,070 good guy. There is there is good news. The Bush the Clinton Bush 673 00:39:53,070 --> 00:40:01,050 Haiti fund has finally publicly awarded some money to See if I 674 00:40:01,050 --> 00:40:02,670 have the guy's name here 675 00:40:08,159 --> 00:40:15,239 to the artists of Jack Mel $50,000 to this artist who has 676 00:40:15,269 --> 00:40:21,599 trademark is making paper mache sculptures in Haiti. 677 00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:27,060 I know it's like government work 678 00:40:27,089 --> 00:40:31,739 $50,000 to a guy who makes paper mache. Meanwhile, 679 00:40:31,770 --> 00:40:35,550 you know Haiti, Haiti, where they get paid a quarter a day 680 00:40:35,580 --> 00:40:40,650 ask Sean Penn what he could do with $50,000 to help some people 681 00:40:40,650 --> 00:40:43,560 who are dying. It's just unbelievable. And then this is a 682 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,540 new story. Daz is great. Although not a massive sum. The 683 00:40:48,540 --> 00:40:52,290 story reads, it is for that guy. The grant will fund the 684 00:40:52,290 --> 00:40:56,340 rebuilding of 10 Atul yeas, destroyed in January's 685 00:40:56,340 --> 00:40:59,310 earthquake and literally put new roofs over the heads of a team 686 00:40:59,310 --> 00:41:08,130 of artists. Ah, man. Yeah, exactly. So our eyes are on you 687 00:41:08,130 --> 00:41:11,010 Billy Boy. And Wyclef John boy. 688 00:41:11,550 --> 00:41:13,560 Yeah. And all the good that does? 689 00:41:13,589 --> 00:41:16,229 Yeah. Now? Well, well, we'll keep our eyes and we can just 690 00:41:16,229 --> 00:41:19,109 keep exposing. That's about all we can do. We have no power. 691 00:41:20,429 --> 00:41:20,849 Right. 692 00:41:22,020 --> 00:41:25,950 So let's get back to the Ted Stevens thing now. Okay, 693 00:41:25,950 --> 00:41:28,500 although I do have a little bit of kind of, I have a kind of a 694 00:41:28,500 --> 00:41:32,580 crossover story if you want to share this easily. Sure. It 695 00:41:32,580 --> 00:41:35,670 turns out this is like kind of between Real News. And but this 696 00:41:35,670 --> 00:41:38,790 is a story that just shows you the kind of the kind of problems 697 00:41:38,790 --> 00:41:43,380 we're having. You know, greed is an issue in the world of 698 00:41:43,380 --> 00:41:45,000 business and government. 699 00:41:46,770 --> 00:41:49,200 And there's no difference between the two, apparently. 700 00:41:49,979 --> 00:41:56,759 So Chuck Schumer, and 10 co sponsors have introduced and 701 00:41:56,759 --> 00:42:01,379 this is from metal filter, have introduced the innovative design 702 00:42:01,379 --> 00:42:06,539 protection and piracy Prevention Act. It's it's essentially 703 00:42:06,539 --> 00:42:09,779 designed to give the, you know, the fashion industry, which was 704 00:42:09,779 --> 00:42:12,449 who has some of the greatest millionaires and billionaires in 705 00:42:12,449 --> 00:42:14,909 the world, because they make so much money off of the fashion, 706 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,449 the idea of fashion, they're trying to get the this is a 707 00:42:18,449 --> 00:42:21,119 front organization, a front bunch of congressmen fronting 708 00:42:21,119 --> 00:42:24,929 for the fashion business, to try to make it so you could patent 709 00:42:24,929 --> 00:42:27,959 and copyright designs of clothes. 710 00:42:28,860 --> 00:42:32,700 Yeah. Which, of course, is the whole fashion industry is based 711 00:42:32,700 --> 00:42:36,480 upon copying, it's the way it works. You have the old couture, 712 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:41,790 you have the big fashion shows, and then h&m and all these boys 713 00:42:41,790 --> 00:42:42,450 knock them off. 714 00:42:42,869 --> 00:42:44,909 And so they have to come to the next cycle. That's why you have 715 00:42:44,909 --> 00:42:47,399 all these seasons, and you'd have this turnover of clothes. 716 00:42:47,399 --> 00:42:50,039 And these guys make millions and millions of dollars because of 717 00:42:50,039 --> 00:42:54,989 it, because there is no, you know, copyright of fashion. But 718 00:42:54,989 --> 00:42:57,299 now they want to make it so there is no these big companies 719 00:42:57,299 --> 00:43:01,139 can just do essentially what the fashion industry would like or 720 00:43:01,139 --> 00:43:04,769 what the what the CEOs of these big corporations would love 721 00:43:04,769 --> 00:43:07,199 nothing better than is why do we have to go through all this 722 00:43:07,199 --> 00:43:10,379 trouble making this new designs every year? Why don't we just 723 00:43:10,379 --> 00:43:14,159 get it copyrighted? Nobody can copy it. And if anybody does, 724 00:43:14,159 --> 00:43:17,939 we'll just buy them. And it will just become some, you know, just 725 00:43:18,509 --> 00:43:22,829 produce kind of communist style clothing, blue jeans that gets 726 00:43:22,829 --> 00:43:26,729 everybody dressed the same men don't give a crap anyway. And 727 00:43:26,789 --> 00:43:29,219 women, you know, they can eat it. You know, we're just get 728 00:43:29,219 --> 00:43:32,339 them off this fashion track. And we'll just use growling money 729 00:43:32,339 --> 00:43:33,929 and nobody can, you know, it's no one 730 00:43:33,929 --> 00:43:36,149 can touch us. No one can touch us, right? 731 00:43:36,900 --> 00:43:40,140 It's ridiculous. The kind of laziness that said, and this is 732 00:43:40,140 --> 00:43:43,530 why we get government workers making $125,000 a year. 733 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:47,550 And you have a link to this story that I can show right now. 734 00:43:47,580 --> 00:43:50,310 Yeah, I definitely want to investigate this that would kind 735 00:43:50,310 --> 00:43:52,110 of destroy the whole fashion industry, though. 736 00:43:52,469 --> 00:43:55,949 But they don't care. It wouldn't destroy their bottom line. Who's 737 00:43:55,949 --> 00:43:59,429 behind this then? Schumer does some congressmen 738 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,950 who by the way, is the icon of fashion. 739 00:44:03,780 --> 00:44:07,440 I don't know what companies are, but you can assume is like Nike 740 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,990 or some of these guys like that have all these you know, little 741 00:44:10,020 --> 00:44:13,200 logos and things you'd like to protect. It's got to be I can't 742 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:18,120 believe it's a European idea. It's got to be American. 743 00:44:18,119 --> 00:44:21,029 It can't be. It can't be people who are really into the fashion 744 00:44:21,029 --> 00:44:23,549 industry because they live on that though. That's the whole 745 00:44:23,549 --> 00:44:24,059 idea. 746 00:44:24,090 --> 00:44:30,060 Yeah, they live on turnover. Okay, then it was just an 747 00:44:30,060 --> 00:44:34,320 interesting little thing that's happening is another decimation 748 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,260 of, you know, whatever rights we have left. 749 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:43,290 All right. So a plane goes down in Alaska, nine people on board, 750 00:44:43,590 --> 00:44:52,740 some interesting players, a former NASA and now Airbus guy, 751 00:44:53,340 --> 00:44:57,270 Senator Ted Stevens, who of course, very controversial 752 00:44:57,690 --> 00:45:02,790 figure and And I definitely have a theory, but I think it's 753 00:45:02,790 --> 00:45:05,100 better if we hear yours first. Because 754 00:45:05,369 --> 00:45:08,969 why would it be better if you heard mine first? Because just 755 00:45:08,969 --> 00:45:16,079 trust me. All right. Stevens cropped up in Washington DC in 756 00:45:16,229 --> 00:45:21,299 late 2009. All of a sudden, after he was, you know, he 757 00:45:21,299 --> 00:45:24,119 essentially was first charged with an ethics violation. And 758 00:45:24,119 --> 00:45:27,479 then they, after they found him guilty in a court of law, and he 759 00:45:27,479 --> 00:45:32,399 lost his election, the the government says, Well, you know, 760 00:45:32,399 --> 00:45:34,679 it probably was a there was mishap, you know, they 761 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,740 was never convicted, he was never convicted because of 762 00:45:37,950 --> 00:45:39,540 procedural issues. 763 00:45:39,810 --> 00:45:44,490 Right. And then it they thought it was prosecutorial misconduct, 764 00:45:44,490 --> 00:45:45,990 and they were going to actually throw the book at the 765 00:45:45,990 --> 00:45:49,470 prosecutors and indict them. And but, you know, this is all after 766 00:45:49,470 --> 00:45:52,740 the fact because they already lost his his election. So he's 767 00:45:52,740 --> 00:45:55,380 out now, so who cares? I mean, they just wanted to get rid of 768 00:45:55,380 --> 00:45:57,210 and they want to get him out of office, they, you know, they're 769 00:45:57,240 --> 00:46:00,240 just gonna screw the guy for one reason or another. I will 770 00:46:00,240 --> 00:46:02,640 mention this, by the way, I was watching and I have some clips 771 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,000 from democracy now and Democracy Now insist, when they gave his 772 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:10,740 obit on calling me a convicted violator, you know, they really 773 00:46:10,740 --> 00:46:13,680 made it just not true, which I know it's a lie. But that's just 774 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,140 the democracy. Now they you know, they don't want to give 775 00:46:16,140 --> 00:46:18,480 you the real details. They want to give you the Democrat, 776 00:46:18,780 --> 00:46:22,020 liberal progressive angle on things that which is sometimes 777 00:46:22,020 --> 00:46:25,620 skewed. Right. So anyway, so he shows up in Washington, DC, you 778 00:46:25,620 --> 00:46:28,800 know, he's not a happy camper. And he's floating around with a 779 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:33,030 couple of Ghostrider ghostwriters. And he makes it 780 00:46:33,030 --> 00:46:36,120 clear in public that he's going to do his memoirs. And everybody 781 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,550 knows for a fact that these memoirs aren't going to be very 782 00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:42,570 amenable to the powers that be that got him kicked out. So he's 783 00:46:42,570 --> 00:46:46,680 run the track to spill his guts about stuff to God knows what 784 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,940 next thing you know, he's dead. 785 00:46:48,599 --> 00:46:57,569 Do you know that his memoirs received a grant for blue from 786 00:46:57,569 --> 00:47:03,059 BP? A million dollar grant from BP? Yes. Nice. Yeah, that's 787 00:47:03,059 --> 00:47:08,009 convenient. So you think that this was a hit a total two to 788 00:47:08,009 --> 00:47:12,209 the head on Stephens because his memoirs, were going to come out 789 00:47:12,839 --> 00:47:15,749 and, and embarrass a lot of people. 790 00:47:16,020 --> 00:47:20,280 Yeah. And he would if you looked at the committees he was on, he 791 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,220 was on a lot of committees. In fact, he was on the homeland 792 00:47:23,220 --> 00:47:25,980 security committee, subcommittee. Oh, no, the 793 00:47:25,980 --> 00:47:28,140 committee and then he was on a bunch of sub intelligence 794 00:47:28,140 --> 00:47:30,930 subcommittees, he was floating around that whole area. He knew 795 00:47:30,930 --> 00:47:34,080 a lot of dinos where a lot of skeletons are hidden. He's, you 796 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,930 know, he's too old. He's getting kind of weird. They couldn't 797 00:47:36,930 --> 00:47:40,230 take a chance. The BP thing probably has something to do 798 00:47:40,230 --> 00:47:42,270 with it. Because they said, you know, you got to tell the story 799 00:47:42,270 --> 00:47:47,040 about you know, the truth about something. When So, boom, he's 800 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:47,400 dead. 801 00:47:48,030 --> 00:47:52,350 Yeah, possible. Possible. I approach it from a different 802 00:47:52,350 --> 00:47:52,800 angle. 803 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:54,570 Is this a topper? 804 00:47:55,110 --> 00:47:59,400 I think it might be. So of course, when I hear about an 805 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:03,450 aviation accident, I immediately start investigating what 806 00:48:03,450 --> 00:48:08,040 happened and and all of the mainstream news reports have 807 00:48:08,070 --> 00:48:11,790 absolutely no information whatsoever. They don't even pull 808 00:48:11,790 --> 00:48:14,700 out the bad weather card. Other than that, it was bad weather 809 00:48:14,730 --> 00:48:17,910 which hampered rescue efforts. But they just said you plowed 810 00:48:17,910 --> 00:48:21,420 into a mountain. Right? There's nothing there nothing place. 811 00:48:22,860 --> 00:48:28,890 What happens every day? Yeah. So I look into who's piloting the 812 00:48:28,890 --> 00:48:37,710 plane. And the guy piloting the plane is Terry Smith. Now Terry 813 00:48:37,710 --> 00:48:42,150 Smith is a very, very experienced pilot and these bush 814 00:48:42,150 --> 00:48:44,970 pilots, by the way, these guys who fly otters and his Havilland 815 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:48,210 they know what they're doing okay. Yes, things happen. But 816 00:48:48,210 --> 00:48:53,520 they do know the guy had 29,000 flight hours. He actually I 817 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:58,800 think was chief pilot at Alaska Air. The guy it's not not 818 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,680 something for him to just you know, right after takeoff 819 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,080 because it was only it was very close to where they took off 820 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:08,790 from from this lodge, to then have such a catastrophic 821 00:49:08,790 --> 00:49:12,150 accident. So you would immediately have to figure some 822 00:49:12,150 --> 00:49:18,240 kind of failure on the craft. Now when you look into Terry 823 00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:26,640 Smith, his son in law died just two weeks ago. While flying a C 824 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:33,810 17 aircraft in the same region. What happens he takes off plane 825 00:49:33,810 --> 00:49:39,630 crashes a couple minutes after takeoff a C 17. So he's starting 826 00:49:39,630 --> 00:49:44,610 to feel me yet. I'm listening is kind of a coincidence. All 827 00:49:44,610 --> 00:49:46,920 right, now you have to bear with me Don't go Oh, brother 828 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:48,300 immediately on me. Okay. 829 00:49:49,020 --> 00:49:52,230 They do it before you do anything out of the way, just to 830 00:49:52,230 --> 00:49:55,950 Oh, brother little brother. Now let's look around the world 831 00:49:55,950 --> 00:50:01,350 right now. Currently, we have here Huge flooding in China, 832 00:50:01,890 --> 00:50:09,750 India. We have Russia burning. We have Japan 21,000 People in 833 00:50:09,750 --> 00:50:15,900 hospital for due to heat stroke. We have Africa severe drought. 834 00:50:16,980 --> 00:50:23,670 We have very crazy weather going on in the southern hemisphere. 835 00:50:23,700 --> 00:50:29,610 Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, extremely cold, California 836 00:50:29,670 --> 00:50:34,470 extremely cold. So what does this do? This is messing up our 837 00:50:34,470 --> 00:50:38,190 food supply. This is why I alluded to it earlier. And now 838 00:50:38,190 --> 00:50:41,070 you have to go and look at the charts. What has been on 839 00:50:41,100 --> 00:50:45,570 consistently for the past couple of weeks is the Harper ray in 840 00:50:45,570 --> 00:50:49,440 Alaska. These they had been beaming and had been modifying 841 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:53,310 the weather for weeks. And this is and you can just look around 842 00:50:53,340 --> 00:50:57,360 you know and the East Coast of America were frying and the east 843 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:01,380 coast so what happened is these guys were I don't know if it was 844 00:51:01,380 --> 00:51:04,440 intentional, but it would make it would be very convenient for 845 00:51:05,220 --> 00:51:09,150 for a Senator Stevens. They got fried by a Tesla beam from this 846 00:51:09,150 --> 00:51:13,860 Harper Ray. And what happens is 847 00:51:13,949 --> 00:51:17,789 like a nice logical exposition I know the second half of the show 848 00:51:17,789 --> 00:51:18,269 material. 849 00:51:18,750 --> 00:51:23,130 You guys stay with me. So what happens is Terry, who's good for 850 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:26,400 Terry Smith is good friends with Steve and says, Dude, this 851 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,040 accident with my son in law that's messed up, there's 852 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,180 something weird going on it has to do with a Harper Ray. He he 853 00:51:33,210 --> 00:51:36,000 they're up there together, they actually want to do some 854 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,480 investigative work as well. And they get fried there's no other 855 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,210 reason for this plane to come down unless they can give me a 856 00:51:42,210 --> 00:51:45,210 reason which they're not doing. The NTSB is shutting up 857 00:51:45,210 --> 00:51:47,820 everyone's completely quiet. Normally, when you see an 858 00:51:47,820 --> 00:51:51,000 accident they say oh, okay, well so here's what happened. Here's 859 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,850 what it looked like. Now it's just like the wings were bent 860 00:51:53,850 --> 00:51:59,580 off of this thing. Bent off not broken off bent off okay, 861 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:04,320 there's so many anomalies that I absolutely am convinced that 862 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,500 there's some kind of weirdness going on and you put all of that 863 00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:11,010 weather related stuff together and the harp array as we know 864 00:52:11,010 --> 00:52:13,620 isn't Alaska this was a Friday job 865 00:52:17,940 --> 00:52:22,470 all right. Makes no sense but my as opposed to my argument, which 866 00:52:22,470 --> 00:52:26,580 makes some sense but you can stay with that theory I mean, 867 00:52:27,090 --> 00:52:30,780 that's just not to shot it was just an accident is what no no 868 00:52:30,810 --> 00:52:34,380 no I'm saying it's total to to to the head but it's it's 869 00:52:34,380 --> 00:52:35,460 because they were in kind of 870 00:52:36,030 --> 00:52:38,550 you know, they've been killing people in the small planes for 871 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:44,400 what decades without using laser beam harp and or whatever the 872 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,650 you know, it's being used for most people mostly for 873 00:52:46,650 --> 00:52:51,690 telecommunications by the way the but with bombs and you know, 874 00:52:51,690 --> 00:52:54,960 and screwing up the plane in one way or another but now they're 875 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,020 gonna get carried away does that make any sense? Let's just put a 876 00:52:58,020 --> 00:53:00,360 bomb on the thing and blow it up out of the in the sky. 877 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,440 No, this is a lot more convenient. Remember we had a 878 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:08,100 very experienced pipeline convenient Yes. All they have to 879 00:53:08,100 --> 00:53:12,060 do is just turn the antenna like three degrees and zap the sky 880 00:53:12,060 --> 00:53:12,300 there's 881 00:53:12,329 --> 00:53:14,939 there's a lot of people involved with this facility would put 882 00:53:14,939 --> 00:53:15,899 planning a bomb yet 883 00:53:15,929 --> 00:53:19,379 name one name one person you know involved with this facility 884 00:53:19,379 --> 00:53:22,049 you have no idea no one knows anyone from this facility. 885 00:53:22,170 --> 00:53:25,410 But there's people there's more than one lone guy floating 886 00:53:25,410 --> 00:53:27,330 around some covert agent it's coming 887 00:53:27,330 --> 00:53:30,840 from the guy who thinks there's to Obama's just telling me that 888 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:32,940 this is this is outrageous 889 00:53:32,969 --> 00:53:35,879 to Obama's only involves one person that you didn't get this 890 00:53:35,909 --> 00:53:40,139 this Harper is not operated by one guy by himself getting 891 00:53:40,169 --> 00:53:42,509 messages over some code lately. 892 00:53:42,540 --> 00:53:46,350 They even sent in a hit squad to make sure the right people were 893 00:53:46,350 --> 00:53:50,400 dead. Listen to the differences between the two BBC reports. The 894 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,610 first report comes out. Five people were at the scene earlier 895 00:53:53,610 --> 00:53:56,250 on Tuesday helping the victims of the flight but it's unclear 896 00:53:56,250 --> 00:53:58,560 how they reach the wreckage. According to the National Guard, 897 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,710 the National Guard in Alaska reported that a private medical 898 00:54:01,710 --> 00:54:04,410 team had been dropped near the area of the crash by a 899 00:54:04,410 --> 00:54:09,120 commercial helicopter on Tuesday. Uh huh. That now their 900 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,030 air dropping guys in so we know what that team was doing. And 901 00:54:12,030 --> 00:54:15,810 then they change this report. And we have PDFs of the of the 902 00:54:15,810 --> 00:54:19,140 web pages. Several local Samaritans had reached the 903 00:54:19,140 --> 00:54:21,810 wreckage before rescuers could arrive and tended to the 904 00:54:21,810 --> 00:54:27,900 survivors. Please, please, they went in made sure that they were 905 00:54:27,930 --> 00:54:34,320 that they were well taken care of. And there is a full scale 906 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,680 war going on. And we're not we're not opening our eyes 907 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,470 because it's so big. It's as big as the mountain that they flew 908 00:54:40,470 --> 00:54:44,550 into that there's a weather war going on a full scale weather 909 00:54:44,550 --> 00:54:47,370 war and the United States is propagating it. Why else do you 910 00:54:47,370 --> 00:54:49,320 think Russia is burning up because all of a sudden this 911 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:52,830 just happens? It's like crazy. It was a global warming John, 912 00:54:52,830 --> 00:54:56,250 what's your rational warming? Okay, just want 913 00:54:59,699 --> 00:55:02,219 the pie possibility of, you know, some sort of a weather 914 00:55:02,219 --> 00:55:04,409 war, which I don't think has anything to do with this 915 00:55:04,409 --> 00:55:08,729 particular instance of Ted Stevens. But because and I would 916 00:55:08,729 --> 00:55:12,419 say that if there was global warming would be the good cover 917 00:55:12,419 --> 00:55:15,749 story. Because it's like, what if people notice that this is 918 00:55:15,749 --> 00:55:17,579 going on? You know, what are we going to how we're going to 919 00:55:17,579 --> 00:55:19,949 explain it? Well, we've got global warming, that's what's 920 00:55:19,949 --> 00:55:20,489 doing it. 921 00:55:21,389 --> 00:55:23,789 So that's what the that's what they're saying about the East 922 00:55:23,789 --> 00:55:27,389 Coast that's being used to bring in our cap and trade regulations 923 00:55:27,389 --> 00:55:30,569 and all the rest. It's people are dying everywhere. You don't 924 00:55:30,569 --> 00:55:33,539 even hear a breath on the news about the 1000s of people who 925 00:55:33,539 --> 00:55:39,929 have drowned from flooding. And this the HAARP array has been on 926 00:55:39,929 --> 00:55:42,869 consistently it's on its frying stuff. 927 00:55:43,079 --> 00:55:44,699 How do you know it's arm on? 928 00:55:44,969 --> 00:55:47,969 You? Can the frequencies are known? You can you can, you can 929 00:55:47,969 --> 00:55:50,429 actually listen to it. You can do there's there's shortwave 930 00:55:50,429 --> 00:55:53,219 radio sites everywhere on the net that monitor HAARP all the 931 00:55:53,219 --> 00:55:54,719 time. And it's on. 932 00:55:55,230 --> 00:55:58,860 You're gonna have links in the show notes. Sure. Of course, of 933 00:55:58,860 --> 00:56:05,760 course. All right, well, I consider this crazy. Okay. But 934 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:09,120 again, I mean, we don't have an explanation for the crash. But 935 00:56:10,349 --> 00:56:12,839 I gave I gave you the explanation. They were 936 00:56:12,839 --> 00:56:16,859 investigating what was going on why this guy's son in law, all 937 00:56:16,859 --> 00:56:17,309 of a sudden 938 00:56:17,309 --> 00:56:22,259 diner was hardware was Harpy. In regards to the plane crash? 939 00:56:22,829 --> 00:56:27,449 Where's HAARP? Located up there? And where was the plane? Was it 940 00:56:27,479 --> 00:56:31,409 crowd nearby? It was walking distance, what they're doing 941 00:56:31,409 --> 00:56:32,009 rounded 942 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,470 you all you have to do is just focus the beam. It's that 943 00:56:34,470 --> 00:56:38,190 simple. I'll tell you where it is that simple 944 00:56:38,430 --> 00:56:38,970 care. 945 00:56:39,420 --> 00:56:46,770 Well, that look, they're frying Russia. I know, I know, you 946 00:56:46,770 --> 00:56:48,180 don't believe this. That's okay. 947 00:56:48,780 --> 00:56:51,120 That's okay. You can It's fine. It's fine. If you want to go off 948 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:52,530 in that direction. It's okay, 949 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,900 I need to put it out there because I really believe that 950 00:56:54,900 --> 00:56:59,550 there is a the the frequency is three point 39 megahertz, that's 951 00:56:59,550 --> 00:57:04,950 where you can hear them. And the actual location, not someone in 952 00:57:04,950 --> 00:57:07,590 the chat room will know what the actual locations but doesn't 953 00:57:07,590 --> 00:57:11,220 matter is up there in Alaska. And I think that this guy's son 954 00:57:11,220 --> 00:57:16,410 in law, maybe accidentally flew through the beam. And, and, you 955 00:57:16,410 --> 00:57:20,280 know, and and the plane got fried and went down. And they 956 00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:24,600 were possibly flying in the same area, or they were investigating 957 00:57:24,630 --> 00:57:27,180 and they just got fried and it was convenient because Stevens 958 00:57:27,180 --> 00:57:30,330 was a pain in the butt anyway. But I think Stevens was probably 959 00:57:30,330 --> 00:57:33,330 helping the guy. Stevens is a big pain in the ass. He knows 960 00:57:33,330 --> 00:57:35,700 what's going on. He knows what's going on in Alaska. He knows 961 00:57:35,700 --> 00:57:42,180 about HAARP. And then they send in BP to go finance the 962 00:57:42,180 --> 00:57:45,420 archives. So we'll never see anything. They now effectively 963 00:57:45,420 --> 00:57:47,730 own the archive. So none of that stuff will ever come out. 964 00:57:49,139 --> 00:57:51,509 That's convenient for your theory. Yeah, 965 00:57:51,540 --> 00:57:52,470 well for yours too. 966 00:57:53,309 --> 00:57:57,629 Real, I suppose. All right. So that will keep us 967 00:57:57,750 --> 00:58:00,930 but it's radiation week. By the way, in case you hadn't noticed. 968 00:58:02,460 --> 00:58:07,080 We have radioactive wild boars in Germany. We have radio 969 00:58:07,350 --> 00:58:10,920 radiation in the streets of Berlin. And of course, the 970 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,640 Moscow fires, you know, all of this all the wood that has been 971 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,610 radiated or whatever is now going to put radiation into the 972 00:58:17,610 --> 00:58:20,280 air. That's the meat of the week is rich radiation week. And you 973 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:21,000 got the memo? 974 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:26,370 Yeah, I missed the memo on that one. But after after that fine 975 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:31,260 exhibition of crackpot madness, I think it's time we take our 976 00:58:31,260 --> 00:58:36,780 little of you by the way, I want to get a telephone ringing. So 977 00:58:36,780 --> 00:58:41,160 when we ask him for donations and support and contributions 978 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:43,350 that we have the phone ringing in the background, because I'm 979 00:58:43,770 --> 00:58:48,510 noticing PBS using it more than usual, really the old fashioned 980 00:58:48,510 --> 00:58:50,760 one to the phone that nobody owns anymore. 981 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,910 Let me see if I can find one for you. I was when I was on the 982 00:58:53,910 --> 00:58:57,090 Adam Carolla show, you know, of course, we brought up business 983 00:58:57,090 --> 00:59:00,240 models and stuff like that. And I said, Well, you know, PbS is 984 00:59:00,300 --> 00:59:05,730 I, PBS are a bunch of Jack offs. And I said, you know, they use 985 00:59:05,730 --> 00:59:08,670 this fake. They use a sound loop and they're like, oh, yeah, I 986 00:59:08,670 --> 00:59:11,340 never thought about that. So yeah. Because you know, you're 987 00:59:11,340 --> 00:59:16,830 so conditioned. People don't realize that. I don't have a 988 00:59:16,830 --> 00:59:17,160 sound 989 00:59:17,159 --> 00:59:20,489 effect there. We'll get one and we will make a background track. 990 00:59:20,489 --> 00:59:24,329 I'll have it looped. So I want to thank some people who donated 991 00:59:24,689 --> 00:59:29,459 to the show in the last week or so. And I want to start by I'm 992 00:59:29,459 --> 00:59:33,059 gonna let fact I'm gonna let Adam mentioned the first one. 993 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:38,580 Okay, this sister. Yeah, he says Walter, but I'll call him by his 994 00:59:38,610 --> 00:59:44,760 his birth name voter cell j from Hilversum. The Netherlands. This 995 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:49,800 donation is to get me $333.33 away from my knighthood not 996 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:53,580 counting my monthly 3333 donations. I'd also like some 997 00:59:53,580 --> 00:59:56,400 good karma from my mom who's getting a new hip in two weeks 998 00:59:56,400 --> 01:00:01,680 time. My last donation will be on 1010 Two 2010 seems like the 999 01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,830 perfect day to get knighted, as it's my birthday that day as 1000 01:00:04,830 --> 01:00:08,130 well. I think Adam should spend this money on iTunes downloads 1001 01:00:08,130 --> 01:00:12,570 for some DSC shows. Love the show that just kept me sane in 1002 01:00:12,570 --> 01:00:15,810 an insane world for the past few years. Oh, and John, please come 1003 01:00:15,810 --> 01:00:19,380 back to the chat room. But it helps if you register your NIC 1004 01:00:19,469 --> 01:00:23,669 yet because I get kicked off. So by the way, I think we might we 1005 01:00:23,669 --> 01:00:29,609 might do a special I think maybe within the next month or so, or 1006 01:00:29,639 --> 01:00:34,979 soon as possible. Do a special donation drive for 1010 10 This 1007 01:00:34,979 --> 01:00:37,619 is only going to happen once every 1000 years. 1008 01:00:41,190 --> 01:00:43,650 I'm doing my donation thing man. I'm doing my rings. 1009 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,310 It sounds like such sounds like some it sounds like somebody's 1010 01:00:47,340 --> 01:00:52,200 killing a cat.

During the run up, of course, the Obama elected 1215 01:14:09,059 --> 01:14:11,549 election to the elections and Obama being put in the White 1216 01:14:11,549 --> 01:14:13,589 House and listen to what he has to say about the meeting that 1217 01:14:13,589 --> 01:14:18,569 was called between Immelt, the CEO of GE, owner of all the NBC 1218 01:14:18,569 --> 01:14:22,619 properties, and, and all of the station managers of these 1219 01:14:22,619 --> 01:14:26,069 different properties. I talked that up really well. But I for 1220 01:14:26,069 --> 01:14:26,729 some reason can't 1221 01:14:26,730 --> 01:14:29,700 Yeah, I don't know why, but I won't play 1222 01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:33,810 it's pissing me off. I'm sorry. 1223 01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:36,600 Ah, it'll play eventually. 1224 01:14:36,630 --> 01:14:44,400 No. Let me try it again. No, they've taken it off. The air 1225 01:14:44,430 --> 01:14:46,680 doesn't work anymore. Jesus. 1226 01:14:47,430 --> 01:14:48,840 God, just give us a rundown. 1227 01:14:50,220 --> 01:14:53,250 I have the transcript maybe it'll play. Well, it was 1228 01:14:53,250 --> 01:14:55,170 interesting. There was it turned out to be true. I think the New 1229 01:14:55,170 --> 01:14:59,100 York Post reported Robo Baba Jeff Immelt, Chairman of GE 1230 01:14:59,100 --> 01:15:01,380 which used to own me So universal called incident, the 1231 01:15:01,380 --> 01:15:04,560 senior staff clearly was worried, according to the people 1232 01:15:05,430 --> 01:15:10,380 just refreshed, according to people that this is an abortion. 1233 01:15:11,340 --> 01:15:15,000 This whole page is seven days term. Yeah, this whole page is 1234 01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:20,760 like freaking out. There was a meeting about the possibility 1235 01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:23,820 that the NBC stations were becoming too anti 1236 01:15:23,820 --> 01:15:27,690 administration. This is when the Obama and yeah, this is when the 1237 01:15:27,690 --> 01:15:31,080 Obama administration first took over. And some of the spending 1238 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:36,210 plans came out and the markets reacted. And so then a Riley 1239 01:15:36,210 --> 01:15:38,910 says to me that himself introduced on the editorial 1240 01:15:38,910 --> 01:15:41,970 position of CNBC because he felt that you weren't giving Obama a 1241 01:15:41,970 --> 01:15:44,790 fair shake. And then gasp, Marino says, yeah, they're gonna 1242 01:15:44,820 --> 01:15:48,690 deny it officially. But the way it worked is people got called 1243 01:15:48,690 --> 01:15:52,170 into the meeting, they were basically read the riot act, the 1244 01:15:52,170 --> 01:15:54,330 question of whether they were being fair to the president was 1245 01:15:54,330 --> 01:15:59,160 brought up. So emiltt literally brought in all of the all of the 1246 01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:01,830 network execs and said, You're not being fair to the President. 1247 01:16:02,340 --> 01:16:05,220 You've got to come, you've got to tone it down. And you've got 1248 01:16:05,220 --> 01:16:07,020 to stop being anti administration. 1249 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:14,040 Really? Wow. Well, you know, it's not as though we didn't 1250 01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:18,060 deconstruct this. I know, but it's an I wish I could always 1251 01:16:18,060 --> 01:16:21,390 Yeah, it's always good to get confirmation. Yeah, in one way 1252 01:16:21,390 --> 01:16:25,650 or another. And I believe its value is true, because CNBC was 1253 01:16:25,650 --> 01:16:29,460 a little harsh on occasion. And they, you know, CNBC has kind of 1254 01:16:29,460 --> 01:16:33,480 a problem because they, they a lot of people blame them for 1255 01:16:33,480 --> 01:16:38,370 the.com collapse. And in along with magazines, like Forbes, 1256 01:16:38,370 --> 01:16:40,890 with none of nobody picked up on anything. Yeah, yeah. Well, 1257 01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,890 they're just boosters. And there was a lot of stories going 1258 01:16:43,890 --> 01:16:48,240 around in the late 90s. About how if you went on CNBC as a 1259 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:54,240 guest, and you had any kind of bearish negative information 1260 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,270 that you are promoting, that you would never get, never get 1261 01:16:57,270 --> 01:16:59,940 invited back, right, you're all gonna be a bull. Yeah, you're 1262 01:16:59,940 --> 01:17:02,760 gonna just pump pump pump. And so the whole thing was just 1263 01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:05,640 like, you know, crazy. And so then when the thing collapsed, 1264 01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:08,100 they had, you know, they were partly responsible in some, you 1265 01:17:08,100 --> 01:17:13,170 know, in some psychic way anyway. But anyway, the, so more 1266 01:17:13,170 --> 01:17:16,260 recently, they have been very aware of this, this reputation 1267 01:17:16,260 --> 01:17:18,780 of theirs. And so they've been doing a lot of negative stuff, 1268 01:17:18,810 --> 01:17:21,840 even though when they had a real opportunity, for example, when 1269 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:25,560 the guys the guys with this book came out, I cuz I saw this show. 1270 01:17:25,860 --> 01:17:28,680 And we're slamming Lehman Brothers saying that these guys 1271 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,870 are gonna go broke and everyone is in the company, and they were 1272 01:17:30,870 --> 01:17:33,990 doing and they and they did CNBC folks, it was the one of their 1273 01:17:33,990 --> 01:17:36,480 morning shows and all this bogus, you know, you have no 1274 01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:39,450 proof. And they, you know, basically rousted the guys and 1275 01:17:39,450 --> 01:17:42,570 wouldn't let them really explain their position. Or they led me 1276 01:17:42,570 --> 01:17:45,000 to explain it, but they poo pooed it. And so of course, when 1277 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:49,260 layman did collapse, it was like, wow, you know, CNBC is 1278 01:17:49,260 --> 01:17:52,440 back on track being just boosters. And so they have this 1279 01:17:52,440 --> 01:17:55,200 reputation, or they tried it. I think when they did, I think 1280 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:57,390 they did attempt to go that way. And so then they get called on 1281 01:17:57,390 --> 01:17:58,740 the carpet, that's not good. 1282 01:18:00,210 --> 01:18:01,950 Well, it's how and 1283 01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:06,120 I mean, what do you think that MSNBC stands out as a standalone 1284 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:10,140 sub network would more than make up for anyone who had anything 1285 01:18:10,140 --> 01:18:12,540 negative to say? So they essentially they're saying that 1286 01:18:12,540 --> 01:18:15,630 all of NBC and of course, we deconstructed a lot of stuff 1287 01:18:15,630 --> 01:18:18,360 from like their some of their dramas, in fact, that we're just 1288 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:21,960 boosting the President is just a shill for the, for the for the 1289 01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:22,650 White House? 1290 01:18:23,220 --> 01:18:26,040 Well, I think there's the whole thing is it's all a setup and 1291 01:18:26,070 --> 01:18:26,550 all of 1292 01:18:26,820 --> 01:18:29,670 it is a big contractor for the government. Exactly. 1293 01:18:30,090 --> 01:18:32,820 But then when you look at how the financial news and and just 1294 01:18:32,820 --> 01:18:37,320 the news networks in, which basically do a lot with, with 1295 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:41,490 Wall Street and the whole game, and you look at what's really 1296 01:18:41,490 --> 01:18:45,930 going on, have you in Horowitz talked about these weird robot 1297 01:18:46,260 --> 01:18:49,410 trades? Have you seen Have you seen these charts? 1298 01:18:51,060 --> 01:18:52,860 We talked about this quite a bit actually, 1299 01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:56,700 the what they're calling the crop circles, market data 1300 01:18:56,760 --> 01:19:02,040 charts, now. It's well, so what's happening is these, this 1301 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,130 is a part of the high, the high frequency the flash trading, 1302 01:19:05,370 --> 01:19:09,060 they come in, and within a second, they'll do like 1000 1303 01:19:09,510 --> 01:19:14,490 bids or asks. And that, of course, over time and time in 1304 01:19:14,490 --> 01:19:18,420 this case is a couple of seconds to maybe a minute, it boosts the 1305 01:19:18,420 --> 01:19:21,690 price of a stock. Yeah. So here, I'll just send you the link so 1306 01:19:21,690 --> 01:19:26,490 you can take a look at it. So the people are now not news. But 1307 01:19:26,490 --> 01:19:29,100 what's interesting is to see the charts where you can actually 1308 01:19:29,100 --> 01:19:32,400 see the different algorithms that are being used. And it's 1309 01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,040 happening in such high end. First of all, it's illegal you 1310 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:39,630 can you're not allowed to go into an open market and trade 1311 01:19:39,630 --> 01:19:43,410 just to boot and do bids just to boost the stock. You have to 1312 01:19:43,410 --> 01:19:47,250 actually do that with the intent to buy or sell. But when you see 1313 01:19:47,250 --> 01:19:50,940 how these these hot these high frequency rams are illegal, 1314 01:19:50,970 --> 01:19:51,870 where's it illegal? 1315 01:19:51,899 --> 01:19:58,439 Oh, that's, that's a that's a law. That's the law. The SEC 1316 01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:01,319 law. No, I I'm quite sure it is, 1317 01:20:01,649 --> 01:20:02,819 you find it and cite it. 1318 01:20:04,170 --> 01:20:07,950 Okay. I mean, I'm not an expert. So I could be wrong. 1319 01:20:07,979 --> 01:20:12,689 I'm not to be an expert to find insights, something I'll look 1320 01:20:12,689 --> 01:20:14,939 for guys have been doing this for you for ever since it was 1321 01:20:15,239 --> 01:20:18,869 they went to computerized trading. But have you had any? I 1322 01:20:18,869 --> 01:20:21,779 mean, you can't they couldn't possibly be a law because for 1323 01:20:21,779 --> 01:20:24,599 example, the computerized trading system whether there's, 1324 01:20:24,629 --> 01:20:27,989 you know, the flash trading is new, but the computerized 1325 01:20:27,989 --> 01:20:31,379 trading system, which accounts for like the EU, which kind of 1326 01:20:31,379 --> 01:20:34,019 benefits the market in a lot of different ways by balancing 1327 01:20:34,019 --> 01:20:38,099 things, if the market starts to collapse, and the computers kick 1328 01:20:38,099 --> 01:20:42,929 in and start selling. It's the equivalent. I mean, there you're 1329 01:20:42,929 --> 01:20:45,179 not buying and selling for any other purpose, you need to get 1330 01:20:45,179 --> 01:20:49,889 the hell out of there. No, I don't think you're gonna find 1331 01:20:49,919 --> 01:20:51,869 you're not going to find documentation for this. The 1332 01:20:51,869 --> 01:20:53,489 Flash trading is legal. 1333 01:20:53,550 --> 01:20:56,580 No, I'm not saying the flash trading is Eleague. Well, you 1334 01:20:56,580 --> 01:20:58,950 know, I really don't know, I have to say, I don't know, I 1335 01:20:58,950 --> 01:21:01,740 read. I was pretty sure I read it somewhere that it was 1336 01:21:01,770 --> 01:21:05,280 illegal. But what just really hit me is when you said that in 1337 01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:08,070 the shownotes. Obviously, we're looking at this chart to see the 1338 01:21:08,070 --> 01:21:12,000 chart. It's amazing, you know, and it's just all these little 1339 01:21:12,030 --> 01:21:17,610 blips all in a row within one second. 1000 different 1000 1340 01:21:17,610 --> 01:21:18,600 different offers. 1341 01:21:18,750 --> 01:21:22,200 Yeah, that are just meant market manipulation technique. Right. 1342 01:21:22,650 --> 01:21:23,070 Okay. So 1343 01:21:23,070 --> 01:21:25,620 you're not allowed to manipulate markets? No, he didn't say that. 1344 01:21:25,620 --> 01:21:25,980 Okay. 1345 01:21:26,100 --> 01:21:29,910 All right. But it's what is used is what it ends up being used 1346 01:21:29,910 --> 01:21:34,440 for. But the proof is another thing. Yeah, I know. I don't 1347 01:21:34,440 --> 01:21:37,530 know. Stay out of the market. That's my Yeah, 1348 01:21:37,559 --> 01:21:41,519 buy gold. Go get some of those Glenn Beck gold coins. That's 1349 01:21:41,519 --> 01:21:44,729 what you need to do. Take it back. Go get some of those. 1350 01:21:44,729 --> 01:21:49,109 That's really good. You got some clips. John, I'd love to hear 1351 01:21:49,109 --> 01:21:49,469 some. 1352 01:21:49,590 --> 01:21:53,490 Yeah, I got here. I got it. There's an interesting one. i 1353 01:21:53,550 --> 01:21:57,120 It's a series of four clips that I got from the Democracy Now. 1354 01:21:57,450 --> 01:22:02,100 Show, which is just a whole I mean, it's a very difficult show 1355 01:22:02,100 --> 01:22:05,220 to get through. But But they did find there's a thing called the 1356 01:22:05,220 --> 01:22:08,730 national security letter, which became scandalous during the 1357 01:22:09,030 --> 01:22:12,450 Bush administration. But just playing this this is like, we 1358 01:22:12,450 --> 01:22:15,960 know we have you would think that in this country, we'd have 1359 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,960 respect for the First Amendment or right to free speech. And 1360 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:22,290 this brings up a couple of topics. The national security 1361 01:22:22,290 --> 01:22:26,310 letter, which was the the FBI handed out nearly 200,000 of 1362 01:22:26,310 --> 01:22:29,370 these things to people. You don't know who they are, because 1363 01:22:29,370 --> 01:22:31,530 nobody could talk about and there's like essentially given 1364 01:22:31,530 --> 01:22:35,430 you a letter from the FBI, which essentially was a nondisclosure 1365 01:22:35,460 --> 01:22:39,000 thing that you were forced to agree to, by virtue of the fact 1366 01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:41,370 that they told you to a secret. It's like the secret police 1367 01:22:41,370 --> 01:22:43,110 coming and knocking on the door. 1368 01:22:43,139 --> 01:22:45,689 So what was the content of this letter? Well, 1369 01:22:45,689 --> 01:22:48,779 here play the national security letter, the first AMY GOODMAN 1370 01:22:48,779 --> 01:22:51,029 clip of the group and you'll get a clue about it. 1371 01:22:51,870 --> 01:22:55,170 We begin today's show with a guest here in New York, who's 1372 01:22:55,170 --> 01:22:59,730 been under an FBI gag order for the past six years. In early 1373 01:22:59,730 --> 01:23:03,840 2004, an FBI agent visited Nicholas Merrill and handed him 1374 01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:06,540 a national security letter that ordered him to hand over 1375 01:23:06,540 --> 01:23:09,450 detailed private records about some of his customers. At the 1376 01:23:09,450 --> 01:23:12,720 time, Merrill was running an Internet service provider in New 1377 01:23:12,720 --> 01:23:17,190 York called calyx. Under the USA PATRIOT Act, the FBI issued more 1378 01:23:17,190 --> 01:23:22,380 than 192,000 national security letters between 2003 and 2006 in 1379 01:23:22,380 --> 01:23:24,900 order to obtain sensitive information without a court 1380 01:23:24,900 --> 01:23:28,380 order. Under the law, recipients of the letters are barred from 1381 01:23:28,380 --> 01:23:31,380 telling anyone about their encounter with the FBI. While 1382 01:23:31,380 --> 01:23:34,320 Nicolas Maduro was not the first American to be gagged after 1383 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:37,680 receiving a national security letter and then a cell he was 1384 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:41,910 the first to challenge the FBI secret tactics. After receiving 1385 01:23:42,090 --> 01:23:44,520 the national security letter Merrill went to the American 1386 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:47,520 Civil Liberties Union which then filed the first lawsuit 1387 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:50,940 challenging the national security letters and letter 1388 01:23:50,940 --> 01:23:53,910 statute.

But listen to this character in the clip to 1412 01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:11,610 Nick Merrill joins us here in New York. We welcome you to 1413 01:25:11,610 --> 01:25:12,450 Democracy Now. 1414 01:25:12,480 --> 01:25:13,350 Thank you. Good morning. 1415 01:25:13,380 --> 01:25:16,560 It's good to have you with us. I bet it's good to be able to 1416 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,960 speak it is kind of a relief. Yeah, it's 1417 01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:22,350 also a bit surreal, because I'm not exactly used to it yet. And 1418 01:25:22,380 --> 01:25:25,260 almost every time I say something about it, I kind of 1419 01:25:25,260 --> 01:25:28,500 have this knee jerk reaction, like, I'm not supposed to talk 1420 01:25:28,500 --> 01:25:31,680 about that. And, you know, that got so ingrained into me that, 1421 01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:33,630 that it's still a bit strange. 1422 01:25:34,260 --> 01:25:37,470 Wait a minute, which which administration handed out these 1423 01:25:37,500 --> 01:25:39,870 national security bush? Okay, right. 1424 01:25:41,700 --> 01:25:44,250 You know, great old bush, and then Gonzalez, 1425 01:25:44,850 --> 01:25:47,820 tab. And but now he can speak about it. 1426 01:25:48,269 --> 01:25:50,849 Well, he can now because he won his court case, but in fact, he 1427 01:25:50,849 --> 01:25:53,699 can't fully speak about it. He mentioned the fact that the 1428 01:25:53,699 --> 01:25:56,819 court case was an agreement. That's still Mays, he can't talk 1429 01:25:56,819 --> 01:26:00,029 about, you know, the specific operation that they were looking 1430 01:26:00,029 --> 01:26:05,369 at, which is some NGO, apparently, and you know, and he 1431 01:26:05,369 --> 01:26:08,399 can't show the letter, this all redacted except for the 1432 01:26:08,429 --> 01:26:11,669 signature and a couple of offbeat words showing here and 1433 01:26:11,669 --> 01:26:15,119 there for no apparent reason. And so he's still kind of under 1434 01:26:15,119 --> 01:26:17,789 a gag order. And which brings me to the point about what is our 1435 01:26:17,789 --> 01:26:21,269 freedom of speech rights. If you can't talk, you know, this, this 1436 01:26:21,269 --> 01:26:23,639 has been bothering me for a while before we get to the next 1437 01:26:23,639 --> 01:26:26,849 two clips. And I talked about this every so often, I bring it 1438 01:26:26,849 --> 01:26:28,889 up on this show. And I'm gonna keep bringing it up, because 1439 01:26:28,889 --> 01:26:31,589 nobody seems to be paying any attention to the fact that we 1440 01:26:31,589 --> 01:26:33,839 have in this country, something called a nondisclosure 1441 01:26:33,839 --> 01:26:37,019 agreement, which essentially abrogates your right to free 1442 01:26:37,019 --> 01:26:40,169 speech. Right, you sign a nondisclosure agreement, you 1443 01:26:40,169 --> 01:26:43,319 can't talk about something under penalty of whatever, you can get 1444 01:26:43,319 --> 01:26:45,749 sued, all these bad things can happen. But we have that in the 1445 01:26:45,749 --> 01:26:48,449 Constitution, we have a right to free speech. So how can this be? 1446 01:26:48,599 --> 01:26:52,049 So how can I sign away my constitutional rights? I'd like 1447 01:26:52,049 --> 01:26:53,699 to know do you have an answer that question? 1448 01:26:53,730 --> 01:26:56,220 Well, I think part of your constitution or part of the 1449 01:26:56,220 --> 01:26:59,880 constitutional rights that you have in the United States is to 1450 01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:03,060 enter into a private contract my individual Great, 1451 01:27:03,090 --> 01:27:06,240 that's exactly the answer I was looking for. So why can I 1452 01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:10,110 entered into a private contract as a slave, an indentured 1453 01:27:10,110 --> 01:27:13,350 servant? Why don't I sign Why don't we go to Africa and have a 1454 01:27:13,350 --> 01:27:17,460 bunch of Africans sign a document a private contract that 1455 01:27:17,460 --> 01:27:19,470 they are now full time slaves? 1456 01:27:19,530 --> 01:27:21,750 That's a good idea. Let's go get us some. 1457 01:27:21,990 --> 01:27:24,690 So that's the question I have to ask you. Now, you just answered 1458 01:27:24,690 --> 01:27:26,400 the question. The first question, how do you answer the 1459 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:26,970 second one? 1460 01:27:27,660 --> 01:27:32,940 Let's go do it. I could use a couple. Yeah, upload this to me 1461 01:27:32,970 --> 01:27:35,610 upload the show and do stuff like that. 1462 01:27:36,179 --> 01:27:40,229 It sounds to me as though if you give the first answer, which you 1463 01:27:40,229 --> 01:27:42,179 gave, which is the answer, I keep hearing, 1464 01:27:42,330 --> 01:27:44,460 by the way, I'm only giving you the answer, because I know 1465 01:27:44,460 --> 01:27:45,300 that's the answer. 1466 01:27:45,390 --> 01:27:48,180 That is the answer. That's the answer. I keep hearing then if 1467 01:27:48,180 --> 01:27:51,570 that's the case, why can I go sign up some slaves? 1468 01:27:52,410 --> 01:27:56,010 Well, John, I think we should test this Coolio who in the chat 1469 01:27:56,010 --> 01:27:59,400 room wants to be a slave? We'll sign you up. If anyone wants to 1470 01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,280 be a slave, you can come here, I'm gonna put one of those red 1471 01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:04,770 rubber balls in your mouth. Again, 1472 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,520 I'm sorry, I'm not a slave to do some work in the back yard. 1473 01:28:09,689 --> 01:28:15,059 Clean the rake the leaves. Shut up slave, rake my leaves? Well, 1474 01:28:15,059 --> 01:28:17,699 I think you can John. I think this is a constitutional point. 1475 01:28:17,699 --> 01:28:19,709 And I think you should go out and you should fight it as you 1476 01:28:19,709 --> 01:28:21,719 go hit people in the mouth to get you some slaves. 1477 01:28:22,260 --> 01:28:25,950 So anyway, and so this story continues. Just go to clip 1478 01:28:25,950 --> 01:28:26,340 three. 1479 01:28:27,270 --> 01:28:31,770 I love you, man. Why don't you tell us your story? What day was 1480 01:28:31,770 --> 01:28:34,110 it? When did it happen? And what happened? 1481 01:28:35,069 --> 01:28:38,519 I don't know if I'm allowed to, for some reason, say the exact 1482 01:28:38,519 --> 01:28:44,999 day. It was in February 2004. An FBI agent visited my office. He 1483 01:28:44,999 --> 01:28:50,039 brought me a letter. He you know, he badged himself, he 1484 01:28:50,039 --> 01:28:53,999 identified himself as an agent, he gave me this letter. I opened 1485 01:28:53,999 --> 01:28:59,879 it. I read it in His presence. And a few things kind of leapt 1486 01:28:59,909 --> 01:29:03,239 out at me. Upon first reading the letter, one of which was 1487 01:29:03,239 --> 01:29:08,339 that I was commanded to never tell anyone, anyone about the 1488 01:29:08,339 --> 01:29:10,919 letter, not that I had received it not that there had been a 1489 01:29:10,919 --> 01:29:18,209 request for information. It was a very broad, and there was no 1490 01:29:18,209 --> 01:29:20,399 exceptions in there. There was no instructions on how to 1491 01:29:20,399 --> 01:29:24,629 appeal, there was nothing about contacting a lawyer. So I said 1492 01:29:24,629 --> 01:29:29,489 to the agent at that time. It says here, I can't tell anyone 1493 01:29:29,489 --> 01:29:32,459 about this. Does that include my attorneys? Does that include my 1494 01:29:32,459 --> 01:29:37,379 business partners? And the man said something to the effect of 1495 01:29:37,409 --> 01:29:40,289 I've, I've just been given the job of bringing you this letter. 1496 01:29:40,289 --> 01:29:46,349 I don't know. I'm not a decision maker. And that was basically 1497 01:29:46,349 --> 01:29:50,339 the end of our conversation. Then he left. At that point, I 1498 01:29:50,339 --> 01:29:55,679 was left with this letter, which asked for what I believe to be 1499 01:29:55,679 --> 01:29:58,529 constitutionally protected information belonging to one of 1500 01:29:58,529 --> 01:29:59,309 my clients. 1501 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:02,040 rule. This is great. 1502 01:30:04,049 --> 01:30:07,049 Yes, the what you do when you're lazy, instead of actually doing 1503 01:30:07,049 --> 01:30:11,009 any real footwork, you know, you come up with this letter that 1504 01:30:11,009 --> 01:30:14,099 says you can't even say you have the letter. And then you scare 1505 01:30:14,099 --> 01:30:16,769 the crap out of somebody because everybody knows habeas corpus is 1506 01:30:16,769 --> 01:30:19,919 out the door and other constitutional right. And they 1507 01:30:19,919 --> 01:30:22,379 can probably pick you up and throw you into Gitmo for all you 1508 01:30:22,379 --> 01:30:25,169 and who's going to do anything about it? Nobody, often nothing. 1509 01:30:25,319 --> 01:30:27,509 So let's finish it off with that, I think clip four and 1510 01:30:27,509 --> 01:30:28,409 we'll be done with this time. 1511 01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:35,250 two FBI agents came to our office with the letter. They had 1512 01:30:35,250 --> 01:30:39,330 called a week before and told us that they were going to serve us 1513 01:30:39,330 --> 01:30:43,710 with a security letter. The thing that leaked to my 1514 01:30:43,710 --> 01:30:49,290 attention about our letter was that it concerned an incident 1515 01:30:49,290 --> 01:30:53,640 back in February, five months prior to this, it was dated in 1516 01:30:53,640 --> 01:30:58,710 May two months prior to July. And it was still addressed to 1517 01:30:59,010 --> 01:31:02,490 the wrong person that our office had called to ask who it should 1518 01:31:02,490 --> 01:31:06,600 be addressed to. So I could conclude that it was not a case 1519 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:10,980 of hot pursuit. And that if I dug my heels in, we weren't 1520 01:31:10,980 --> 01:31:13,170 jeopardizing any of our fellow sofas. What do 1521 01:31:13,170 --> 01:31:15,840 you say to the FBI agents who came to your door? 1522 01:31:16,140 --> 01:31:19,290 This is great. That's awesome. Well, I've been while that was 1523 01:31:19,290 --> 01:31:21,690 playing, I've been looking around but I cannot find a copy 1524 01:31:21,690 --> 01:31:25,770 of what would be a national security letter, of course. Not 1525 01:31:25,770 --> 01:31:26,580 available to get 1526 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,660 Wow. So anyway, the so this has been going on and as far as I 1527 01:31:30,660 --> 01:31:33,090 know, this never been to these letters are still in effect. And 1528 01:31:33,090 --> 01:31:35,640 nobody's done anything about the Obama administration shirts and 1529 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:39,120 done anything about they like it. I mean, who doesn't like 1530 01:31:39,120 --> 01:31:40,650 this kind of secret police action? 1531 01:31:40,889 --> 01:31:45,629 I think we should have a I think we should have no agenda NSL we 1532 01:31:45,629 --> 01:31:47,909 send you the letter and the first the first rule is you 1533 01:31:47,909 --> 01:31:51,659 can't tell anyone about what's in the letter. Fight Club. Yeah, 1534 01:31:51,659 --> 01:31:56,489 exactly. And if you do, then you're our slave. That could 1535 01:31:56,489 --> 01:32:00,809 Yeah, I think we did. John. I'm, I'm with you, my friend. I think 1536 01:32:00,809 --> 01:32:03,629 constitutionally, you have a great point. And I'd like me a 1537 01:32:03,629 --> 01:32:05,069 slave. Would you like you a slave? 1538 01:32:05,309 --> 01:32:10,979 I know. I need a bunch of them. Yes. In my backyard. There's 1539 01:32:10,979 --> 01:32:12,089 work to be done. Yeah. 1540 01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:14,940 Well, this of course is all just kind of a wind up to where we're 1541 01:32:14,940 --> 01:32:19,470 really headed and Gitmo nation. And this all came kind of came 1542 01:32:19,470 --> 01:32:22,440 out this past week and Gitmo nation East in the United 1543 01:32:22,440 --> 01:32:25,500 Kingdom where I guess so many people complain that the 1544 01:32:25,500 --> 01:32:28,350 advertising watchdog what is that? The 1545 01:32:28,950 --> 01:32:32,850 Ad Council? Yeah, the British version of the British version, 1546 01:32:32,850 --> 01:32:33,720 British version of the Ad 1547 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:36,450 Council says, hey, you know, these ads that we have running 1548 01:32:36,450 --> 01:32:39,360 on the radio, we really can't run these anymore. People are on 1549 01:32:39,360 --> 01:32:45,060 to us. And I want you to listen, this is the campaign if you 1550 01:32:45,090 --> 01:32:48,240 suspect it, report it, oh, he had this. This is great. 1551 01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:51,780 The following message is brought to you by Talksport and the Anti 1552 01:32:51,780 --> 01:32:55,650 Terrorist hotline. The man at the end of the street doesn't 1553 01:32:55,650 --> 01:32:58,680 talk to his neighbors much because he likes to keep himself 1554 01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:02,550 to himself. He pays with cash because he doesn't have a bank 1555 01:33:02,550 --> 01:33:06,120 card. And he keeps his curtains closed because his house is on a 1556 01:33:06,120 --> 01:33:10,950 bus route. This may mean nothing, but together, it could 1557 01:33:10,950 --> 01:33:15,300 all add up to you having suspicions. We all have a role 1558 01:33:15,300 --> 01:33:19,320 to play in combating terrorism. If you see anything suspicious, 1559 01:33:19,530 --> 01:33:23,340 called the confidential Anti Terrorist hotline on Oh 800. 1560 01:33:23,370 --> 01:33:25,680 So there's a couple of these. I don't want to play the different 1561 01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:28,410 versions because there's some really subtle stuff that just 1562 01:33:28,410 --> 01:33:31,050 blew me away when you listen to the other versions of this 1563 01:33:31,050 --> 01:33:34,050 because of course, all these all these stations got paid to do 1564 01:33:34,050 --> 01:33:37,470 this. I mean, this is a paid advertisement. Yes, not a public 1565 01:33:37,470 --> 01:33:39,900 service. It's not a PSA at all. Check. 1566 01:33:39,899 --> 01:33:42,419 The following message is brought to you by Talksport. 1567 01:33:43,020 --> 01:33:44,280 Tech I'm sorry, it's the wrong one 1568 01:33:44,340 --> 01:33:48,810 is that is the announcer that little GEICO lizard. It sounds 1569 01:33:48,810 --> 01:33:49,110 like it 1570 01:33:49,110 --> 01:33:52,530 doesn't. Here's the national campaign. A terraced house in 1571 01:33:52,530 --> 01:33:56,250 our street has blacked out windows. I love this you have to 1572 01:33:56,250 --> 01:34:01,380 listen to it again. She says a terrace house in our street now 1573 01:34:01,380 --> 01:34:06,210 a terrace house is a particular type of house and in a typical 1574 01:34:06,300 --> 01:34:10,860 London street, but using the word terrace house is perfect 1575 01:34:10,860 --> 01:34:13,080 for this because what does it sound? Yeah, I thought I heard 1576 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:16,590 sounds like terrorists, right? So it's very subliminal, but 1577 01:34:16,590 --> 01:34:20,130 really, really good. Like it was a terraced house in 1578 01:34:20,130 --> 01:34:23,280 our street as blacked out windows, which is odd thing is 1579 01:34:23,280 --> 01:34:26,070 the rest of his documents have different names on them. It just 1580 01:34:26,069 --> 01:34:29,549 seemed far too much fertilizer for such a small plot of land. 1581 01:34:30,300 --> 01:34:34,710 I love that. It was far too much fertilizer for such a small pot, 1582 01:34:34,710 --> 01:34:37,410 that plot of land, too much fertilizer. 1583 01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:40,920 He may have been on the level of why did he want to buy 1584 01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:43,500 protective equipment because asking loads of security 1585 01:34:43,500 --> 01:34:47,340 questions. And then I discovered he didn't even work in that 1586 01:34:47,340 --> 01:34:50,550 department on their own. They may mean nothing. But together 1587 01:34:50,550 --> 01:34:55,110 it all adds up. Breast plot may have discovered we all have a 1588 01:34:55,110 --> 01:34:56,430 role to play. Do you hear that? 1589 01:34:57,450 --> 01:35:00,990 Did you hear how they edit those words together? Yeah, that's 1590 01:35:02,310 --> 01:35:05,700 discovered. We all have a role to play in combating terrorism. 1591 01:35:05,880 --> 01:35:08,640 If you see anything suspicious, call the confidential Anti 1592 01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:11,520 Terrorist hotline on Oh 800 789 1593 01:35:11,550 --> 01:35:14,190 I love how they do that. So the edit together with these people 1594 01:35:14,190 --> 01:35:16,710 are saying and it sounds like a terrorist plot has been 1595 01:35:16,710 --> 01:35:20,820 discovered. Yeah. I mean, there's total subliminal mind 1596 01:35:20,820 --> 01:35:21,600 control. 1597 01:35:21,810 --> 01:35:23,160 It's great. Yeah. 1598 01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:28,200 Give me some slaves. This is awesome, too. Anyway, so they've 1599 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:30,300 stopped that which of course means that now everyone's 1600 01:35:30,300 --> 01:35:33,390 playing on everyone's listening to him. Right and deconstructing 1601 01:35:33,390 --> 01:35:37,200 them. Yeah, well, no one's deconstructing this. No one's 1602 01:35:37,200 --> 01:35:40,440 deconstructing it. Oh, they have to be they're not that stupid. 1603 01:35:40,440 --> 01:35:43,590 Who this there's no one in Britain deconstruct with it. 1604 01:35:43,620 --> 01:35:46,080 Were people who would deconstruct this stuff. That's 1605 01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:49,770 like, yeah, no, that's a Yeah, I use cash. By the way, don't 1606 01:35:49,770 --> 01:35:54,270 cash. I got lots of fertilizer. I need poop for the yard. I'm 1607 01:35:54,270 --> 01:35:58,230 surprised he didn't say his hair. Isn't that blonde. He 1608 01:35:58,230 --> 01:36:05,610 doesn't need all of that bleaching product. Also in Gitmo 1609 01:36:05,610 --> 01:36:12,210 nation East Now, some people may agree with this. But smoking in 1610 01:36:12,210 --> 01:36:16,560 your car with your children is now pretty much officially child 1611 01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:20,940 abuse. And, you know, that means they can take your kid away. 1612 01:36:21,359 --> 01:36:23,759 Yeah, they're looking for any excuse to take your kid away so 1613 01:36:23,759 --> 01:36:26,789 they can brainwash them in a state run orphanage. Yeah. 1614 01:36:26,910 --> 01:36:33,720 Oh, yeah. They need your kids.

It all comes 1690 01:41:25,590 --> 01:41:29,580 together. Wow. Amazing. Gitmo nation is an awesome place to 1691 01:41:29,580 --> 01:41:35,070 be. It's great. So one of our producers sent me an ad in a 1692 01:41:36,210 --> 01:41:44,550 local newspaper. This has to do with the demon drink. And it's 1693 01:41:44,670 --> 01:41:49,710 this newspaper is geared towards the 21 to 35 year old crowd. And 1694 01:41:49,740 --> 01:41:53,340 I think this newspaper might even be distributed in bars. The 1695 01:41:53,340 --> 01:41:59,100 ad actually has a guy holding up a sign that says, you got $3,400 1696 01:41:59,910 --> 01:42:03,690 Well then don't drink and drive. So they now actually have the 1697 01:42:03,690 --> 01:42:07,680 price of the scram bracelet, the interlock device and what it 1698 01:42:07,680 --> 01:42:12,150 will cost you if you're if you're caught $3,500 Yeah, it's 1699 01:42:12,150 --> 01:42:16,470 it's it's amazing. Now, I of course do not advocate drinking 1700 01:42:16,470 --> 01:42:19,560 and driving. But the scam they've got behind this thing. 1701 01:42:19,590 --> 01:42:22,920 It just it becomes so blatant, when they've got a guy holding 1702 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:27,030 this literally holding the sign it's going to cost you $3,400 1703 01:42:27,030 --> 01:42:28,110 And we know what it's for. 1704 01:42:28,259 --> 01:42:31,619 That's why people you won't be able to you know, you keep you 1705 01:42:31,619 --> 01:42:34,679 introduce the price and the whole thing so then everyone's 1706 01:42:34,679 --> 01:42:38,309 used to it and so no one can be outraged by it. Yeah. It's just 1707 01:42:38,309 --> 01:42:41,969 a slow process of introducing people to something and you 1708 01:42:41,969 --> 01:42:44,909 there's no obviously there's no outcry because it's like child 1709 01:42:44,909 --> 01:42:48,119 porn, and all these other things.

You're crackpot Oh, 1713 01:42:55,829 --> 01:42:58,409 and then you keep introducing this other piece of information. 1714 01:42:58,409 --> 01:43:01,319 It's 3400 bucks and so now it's a year later. 1715 01:43:01,410 --> 01:43:04,050 This is not a federal fine this is just this is the commercial 1716 01:43:04,050 --> 01:43:07,380 industry overhead overheads commercial industry. 1717 01:43:07,620 --> 01:43:10,770 And so when the year later if you say well gee, this is a rip 1718 01:43:10,770 --> 01:43:13,530 off while you've been going on forever and you're now you're 1719 01:43:13,530 --> 01:43:17,670 saying it's a ripoff yeah you're you're living under a rock.

You do get busted DC 1733 01:44:08,430 --> 01:44:11,670 police are on the hook for drunk riders and speeders right now 1734 01:44:11,700 --> 01:44:15,450 it's zero tolerance in DC. So stay within the legal limits. 1735 01:44:15,480 --> 01:44:18,750 Checkpoint StrikeForce is back with a special interest in 1736 01:44:18,750 --> 01:44:23,130 motorcyclists riding over the limit under arrest a message 1737 01:44:23,130 --> 01:44:25,410 from the District Department of Transportation and the 1738 01:44:25,410 --> 01:44:27,240 Metropolitan Police Department. 1739 01:44:27,899 --> 01:44:31,439 You know, I'm all for the message, but wow, really put it 1740 01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:33,299 in my face like CSI Miami, 1741 01:44:33,630 --> 01:44:36,450 and then they got some guy here some tough luck and black guy 1742 01:44:36,450 --> 01:44:43,080 with big jaw with a big jaw that red hand checkpoints or some 1743 01:44:43,080 --> 01:44:47,940 opera obviously some some scam at some organization is getting 1744 01:44:47,940 --> 01:44:52,230 government money in intensive law enforcement mobilization to 1745 01:44:52,230 --> 01:44:55,980 get impaired drivers off our roads, stopping over 500,000 1746 01:44:56,070 --> 01:44:58,620 drivers last year and sobriety checkpoints. In other words, 1747 01:44:58,620 --> 01:45:01,740 you're inconveniencing the poor Like, let's put it make it let's 1748 01:45:01,740 --> 01:45:07,230 call for what it is. Assuming everybody's a drunk, using 1749 01:45:07,230 --> 01:45:10,050 checkpoints and patrols when we're drunk driving is most 1750 01:45:10,050 --> 01:45:13,170 likely to occur outside of bars and let's just hang out. Why 1751 01:45:13,170 --> 01:45:16,350 don't you just let me give a little advice to these? That 1752 01:45:16,350 --> 01:45:19,410 skip skip the middleman? Why don't you just take the entire 1753 01:45:19,410 --> 01:45:22,380 police force and instead of preventing robberies and murders 1754 01:45:22,380 --> 01:45:25,500 and all these other things that go on, just hang out in like, 1755 01:45:25,500 --> 01:45:28,320 you know, the cab lines you go to like a fancy disco. And 1756 01:45:28,320 --> 01:45:30,390 there's a bunch of cabs waiting to pick you up about two in the 1757 01:45:30,390 --> 01:45:32,580 morning and take you home in New York City that's very common, 1758 01:45:32,820 --> 01:45:36,600 just have a whole lineup of cop cars kind of similar to the 1759 01:45:36,600 --> 01:45:40,620 taxis. And then as people stagger out of the bar, or walk 1760 01:45:40,620 --> 01:45:43,950 out of the bar, whatever, follow them with the car, you know, 1761 01:45:43,950 --> 01:45:46,500 just go in the same thing. And then if they get into a car, or 1762 01:45:46,500 --> 01:45:48,690 if they look for their keys or anything, just bust the muster 1763 01:45:48,689 --> 01:45:51,059 Maya bustin right there. Yeah, well, that's already happening. 1764 01:45:51,689 --> 01:45:55,349 Yeah, well, they should. They should institutionalize it, put 1765 01:45:55,349 --> 01:45:57,599 the police right in front of every bar in town. 1766 01:45:58,199 --> 01:46:00,419 I think this is actually happening John, this is not a 1767 01:46:00,419 --> 01:46:02,999 dream you're having this is actually taking place and if you 1768 01:46:02,999 --> 01:46:06,839 have the keys in your hand, you get arrested. If you have a 1769 01:46:06,839 --> 01:46:10,199 thought crime, you've got crime, you will go up to your car and 1770 01:46:10,199 --> 01:46:10,919 70 revenue you 1771 01:46:10,919 --> 01:46:11,819 haven't gotten an inch. 1772 01:46:13,170 --> 01:46:16,260 So checkpoint strikeforce.net is 1773 01:46:16,470 --> 01:46:20,610 another way to get move extract money from the public. You know, 1774 01:46:20,610 --> 01:46:23,430 that is trying to you know, just live. 1775 01:46:24,780 --> 01:46:30,120 They've got a link here myths. Um, you know, I mean, I think 1776 01:46:30,480 --> 01:46:34,920 I'm all for really, drinking and driving is really, really bad. 1777 01:46:35,310 --> 01:46:39,240 It's a very bad practice. But there are other ways to educate 1778 01:46:39,240 --> 01:46:42,990 the public about this. And this is just checkpoint crap is just 1779 01:46:42,990 --> 01:46:46,800 pissing me off and calling it a checkpoint, and they're rolling 1780 01:46:46,800 --> 01:46:50,070 checkpoints by the way. So they'll set up and then they 1781 01:46:50,280 --> 01:46:53,070 half an hour later the roll up to another part of town and they 1782 01:46:53,070 --> 01:46:55,680 just keep checking checkpoint checkpoint checkpoint 1783 01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:58,920 StrikeForce to be checkpoint. Slave. 1784 01:47:04,680 --> 01:47:06,960 Yeah, it was for the new prohibitionist movement, too. 1785 01:47:07,290 --> 01:47:10,920 Wasn't it wasn't smart. tronics the company that built the $18 1786 01:47:10,920 --> 01:47:12,090 million website? 1787 01:47:13,410 --> 01:47:15,930 Yeah, I think it might have been not sure. I'm not sure. I don't 1788 01:47:15,930 --> 01:47:19,740 I can't say for sure. I think it was a million dollar, you know, 1789 01:47:20,280 --> 01:47:20,910 Link. 1790 01:47:21,180 --> 01:47:24,720 Yeah, I think I think they built recovery.gov 1791 01:47:25,020 --> 01:47:28,380 It's possible. Yeah, I got to go back and listen to the show. But 1792 01:47:28,380 --> 01:47:28,650 no, no, 1793 01:47:28,650 --> 01:47:31,680 we can. Let's just check that now. Hold on smart. tronics 1794 01:47:33,270 --> 01:47:38,460 recovery.ca I'm pretty sure those are the guys. Yes. Okay. 1795 01:47:38,850 --> 01:47:43,080 Yeah, smart. tronics built the $18 million recovery.gov 1796 01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:48,930 website. They have just acquired Cogan systems LLC. And that 1797 01:47:48,930 --> 01:47:56,550 means to me, that is the company that VEC Qudra. And, and what's 1798 01:47:56,550 --> 01:48:00,210 the other guy and Nish Oprah? Yes. That they both worked at 1799 01:48:01,350 --> 01:48:02,910 before coming into the administration. 1800 01:48:06,120 --> 01:48:08,010 big shocker. eruption. 1801 01:48:10,050 --> 01:48:12,390 Yeah, I just thought that was kind of an interesting little 1802 01:48:12,390 --> 01:48:16,500 find. They they literally acquired the company that these 1803 01:48:16,500 --> 01:48:20,850 guys came from. Yeah, no shame. Absolutely no shame there. Why 1804 01:48:20,850 --> 01:48:24,540 bother? Nobody cares. Nobody calls him on anything. Everybody 1805 01:48:24,540 --> 01:48:27,870 thinks these two guys are heroes. Yeah, you know, because 1806 01:48:27,870 --> 01:48:30,690 they you skip logic, because they you skip logic and they 1807 01:48:30,690 --> 01:48:36,330 don't speak in binary and COBOL. And we got to play that clip. 1808 01:48:37,170 --> 01:48:39,900 Well, you do have to play that more often. Okay, so there's a 1809 01:48:39,900 --> 01:48:43,350 new superbug in the United Kingdom In the United Kingdom, 1810 01:48:44,730 --> 01:48:49,200 which of course will require drugs. And then there's lots of 1811 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:52,110 stories about this and it's very easy to deconstruct you want to 1812 01:48:52,110 --> 01:48:55,470 learn how to deconstruct a story you just read through it. So the 1813 01:48:56,100 --> 01:49:00,060 the the main story here, a new superbug could spread around the 1814 01:49:00,060 --> 01:49:04,050 world after reaching Britain from India. By the way, it can't 1815 01:49:04,050 --> 01:49:06,900 go from India in any direction. It can only go from Britain to 1816 01:49:06,900 --> 01:49:10,260 the rest of the world. But in part because of and here comes 1817 01:49:10,260 --> 01:49:14,760 medical tourism. Scientists say there are almost no drugs to 1818 01:49:14,760 --> 01:49:16,980 treat it for the sciences 1819 01:49:16,980 --> 01:49:17,340 and 1820 01:49:19,290 --> 01:49:25,080 it's m nd M one which is a great name NDM. One makes bacteria 1821 01:49:25,080 --> 01:49:28,680 highly resistant to almost all antibiotics, including the most 1822 01:49:28,680 --> 01:49:34,650 powerful class called carbon EMS. No, I'm sorry. carbapenems. 1823 01:49:35,100 --> 01:49:38,100 Experts say there are no new drugs on the horizon to tackle 1824 01:49:38,100 --> 01:49:44,670 it. So of course, what this is about is, is about the medical 1825 01:49:44,670 --> 01:49:49,590 tourism because the the system in the United Kingdom, their 1826 01:49:49,590 --> 01:49:54,480 national health service is broken is sucks and people are 1827 01:49:54,480 --> 01:49:58,320 going away to go and get health care in better places where you 1828 01:49:58,320 --> 01:50:00,510 actually get served and there are people on way waiting lists 1829 01:50:00,510 --> 01:50:03,630 for you know, for important stuff, you know, six months now 1830 01:50:03,630 --> 01:50:04,440 usually to 1831 01:50:04,439 --> 01:50:05,579 a YouTube report. 1832 01:50:06,000 --> 01:50:13,080 You got a YouTube report on this. Yeah. Okay. Let's have a 1833 01:50:13,080 --> 01:50:17,700 little listen then. Now NDM one super bug that's hope we don't 1834 01:50:17,700 --> 01:50:18,630 have a pre road a 1835 01:50:18,629 --> 01:50:21,989 newly identified gene mutation be responsible for a new class 1836 01:50:21,989 --> 01:50:25,229 of drug resistant superbugs. British researchers say it's 1837 01:50:25,229 --> 01:50:28,349 possible According to ABC News, researchers say a group of 1838 01:50:28,349 --> 01:50:31,829 plastic surgery patients who traveled from India or Pakistan 1839 01:50:31,829 --> 01:50:35,189 back to Great Britain returned carrying bacteria which has an 1840 01:50:35,189 --> 01:50:39,629 antibiotic resistant superbug gene known as NDM. One Indian 1841 01:50:39,629 --> 01:50:43,679 one stands for New Delhi Metallo beta lactamase. AFP quotes 1842 01:50:43,679 --> 01:50:47,429 researchers is saying that a new class of superbugs could spread 1843 01:50:47,459 --> 01:50:50,879 worldwide, the New York Times quotes experts calling the gene 1844 01:50:50,879 --> 01:50:55,079 mutation worrying an ominous According to AFP, researchers 1845 01:50:55,079 --> 01:50:59,159 first discovered the NDM one gene in 2009. In a Swedish 1846 01:50:59,159 --> 01:51:02,789 patient who was hospitalized in India, scientists are said to be 1847 01:51:02,789 --> 01:51:06,059 especially concerned because Indian one bacteria are 1848 01:51:06,059 --> 01:51:09,389 resistant to even the strongest broad spectrum antibiotics 1849 01:51:09,389 --> 01:51:12,899 reserved to treat multi drug resistant bugs. In an article 1850 01:51:12,899 --> 01:51:15,689 from the journal The Lancet researchers in Britain noted 1851 01:51:15,689 --> 01:51:19,859 that Indian one can easily be transferred into common bacteria 1852 01:51:19,889 --> 01:51:21,779 such as E. Coli. Why this is 1853 01:51:21,780 --> 01:51:25,800 great. I think just in time now that the World Health 1854 01:51:25,800 --> 01:51:29,700 Organization has declared the swine flu pandemic over I think 1855 01:51:29,700 --> 01:51:32,580 it's perfect timing the bring up a new super bug 1856 01:51:33,390 --> 01:51:38,190 where they call it a bug to bacteria. Not an insect. 1857 01:51:40,020 --> 01:51:42,390 It'll soon be in your diet. I don't know. 1858 01:51:42,960 --> 01:51:46,680 Neither, I'm gonna figure it out. Anyway, obviously, it's a 1859 01:51:47,190 --> 01:51:50,880 some Sandy Of course, they've been trying to stop the outflow 1860 01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:54,030 of patients to India, because the hospitals there have the 1861 01:51:54,030 --> 01:51:56,700 same Indian doctors they have in England, but they're cheating to 1862 01:51:56,700 --> 01:52:01,980 do 1/10 The price and this will keep this up put the clamp on it 1863 01:52:01,980 --> 01:52:04,290 the Indians they have to get a scramble to stop this. 1864 01:52:05,280 --> 01:52:08,850 Well, we'll see this will unfold this will unfold into something 1865 01:52:08,850 --> 01:52:09,570 very obvious. 1866 01:52:09,599 --> 01:52:12,299 I'm sure we are we okay. We caught it early, early. Yeah. 1867 01:52:12,329 --> 01:52:15,299 And we will stay on it because it's obvious going to be a major 1868 01:52:15,299 --> 01:52:21,359 thing along with tuberculosis, resistant to drug resistant 1869 01:52:21,359 --> 01:52:24,869 tuberculosis and the next iteration of the swine flu and 1870 01:52:24,869 --> 01:52:25,289 the whooping 1871 01:52:25,290 --> 01:52:26,940 cough. Don't forget the whooping cough, 1872 01:52:27,359 --> 01:52:28,199 whooping cough. Yeah. 1873 01:52:28,229 --> 01:52:31,319 Now we know we got a vaccine coming for that. And the British 1874 01:52:31,319 --> 01:52:33,929 has always been a vaccine for whooping cough. Yeah. But now 1875 01:52:33,929 --> 01:52:36,479 it's going to be something we need to have your kids won't be 1876 01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:39,149 able to go to school without it. Just another needle. That's what 1877 01:52:39,149 --> 01:52:42,539 it's about. It's a drug company. They've got nothing left to sell 1878 01:52:42,569 --> 01:52:44,369 this. They've become so desperate now. They've 1879 01:52:44,369 --> 01:52:48,509 infiltrated the British Heart Foundation, who now say fast 1880 01:52:48,509 --> 01:52:53,909 food outlets such as McDonald's, and Burger King should consider 1881 01:52:53,939 --> 01:53:01,019 handing out statins with their hamburger. It would only cost 1882 01:53:01,019 --> 01:53:07,499 five P A customer similar to a sachet of ketchup. A statement 1883 01:53:07,499 --> 01:53:11,129 of course, is to fight cholesterol. But I think it's 1884 01:53:11,129 --> 01:53:13,769 time for people who have real cholesterol issues. And I don't 1885 01:53:13,769 --> 01:53:15,989 think it should just be a bill that you get with your 1886 01:53:15,989 --> 01:53:19,829 hamburger. But this is what the this is like the idea. It's 1887 01:53:19,829 --> 01:53:22,799 pretty good a state in the day and this is this is just selling 1888 01:53:22,799 --> 01:53:26,039 drugs and pushing drugs. A state in the day can neutralize the 1889 01:53:26,039 --> 01:53:29,219 risk of cardiovascular disease linked to a daily intake of a 1890 01:53:29,219 --> 01:53:32,009 seven ounce cheeseburger and a small milkshake. This is 1891 01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:34,080 getting people off the cheeseburger. 1892 01:53:34,170 --> 01:53:38,430 No, no, no, no, no, no, we don't want to ruin the industry. No, 1893 01:53:38,640 --> 01:53:41,550 we just need to amp it up. This is great. 1894 01:53:41,580 --> 01:53:43,980 This is so smart. Twice as many burgers that 1895 01:53:43,979 --> 01:53:46,229 I this is actually what they're saying. They're saying he'll go 1896 01:53:46,229 --> 01:53:48,989 ahead eat your burger and just take the pill. It'll be fine. 1897 01:53:49,049 --> 01:53:51,989 It's gonna be great. This is brave new world stuff is what 1898 01:53:51,989 --> 01:53:57,839 this is. This is great. It's just awesome. Very, very smart. 1899 01:53:57,990 --> 01:53:58,980 So sick world. 1900 01:54:00,420 --> 01:54:03,330 Well, then let's do this. No, no, 1901 01:54:03,360 --> 01:54:07,320 no. Nope, nope. Before we do that, because I know where 1902 01:54:07,320 --> 01:54:11,370 you're headed. I want to play at least one more clip. Sure. Just 1903 01:54:11,370 --> 01:54:15,510 to bring up that just kind of a funny thing because it actually 1904 01:54:15,510 --> 01:54:20,700 is a clip in a clip. But play this Obama sports clip first and 1905 01:54:20,700 --> 01:54:22,800 then I want you to follow up with the block back to school 1906 01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:23,820 tax free clip 1907 01:54:23,850 --> 01:54:26,520 okay with some commentary in between. Yeah, okay. 1908 01:54:26,850 --> 01:54:30,240 President Obama makes no secret of his affinity for all things 1909 01:54:30,240 --> 01:54:34,050 force. The Washington Post's Dana Milbank writes about what 1910 01:54:34,050 --> 01:54:37,380 he calls the jock in chief setting a new standard for 1911 01:54:37,380 --> 01:54:41,460 presidential game playing after a bachelor birthday weekend that 1912 01:54:41,460 --> 01:54:44,820 included a round of golf with friends hosting with Milbank 1913 01:54:44,820 --> 01:54:49,080 calls a fantasy camp with pro basketball legends, and 1914 01:54:49,080 --> 01:54:51,720 welcoming the reigning Super Bowl champions to the White 1915 01:54:51,720 --> 01:54:55,590 House Monday. unofficial presidential chronicler Mark 1916 01:54:55,590 --> 01:54:58,770 Miller's numbers reveal President Obama has left the 1917 01:54:58,770 --> 01:55:02,310 White House on 16 occasions to play basketball. In addition to 1918 01:55:02,310 --> 01:55:06,240 countless times on his home court, he's played 44 rounds of 1919 01:55:06,240 --> 01:55:10,830 golf, gone fishing and played tennis, total sporting related 1920 01:55:10,830 --> 01:55:14,910 events at the White House 45. That's about six times the 1921 01:55:14,910 --> 01:55:18,180 number of news conferences he's held since taking office. 1922 01:55:19,710 --> 01:55:21,990 In notice you didn't go fishing with Ted Stevens. 1923 01:55:23,670 --> 01:55:26,370 Meanwhile, of course in Illinois, where Obama comes 1924 01:55:26,370 --> 01:55:29,910 from, there's this there's a bunch of it's just a weird 1925 01:55:29,910 --> 01:55:32,250 thing. It's like, you know, how am I I don't know, they just 1926 01:55:32,250 --> 01:55:34,530 seem to be taking a lot of vacations and not paying much 1927 01:55:34,530 --> 01:55:38,040 attention to the job creation except in the government. And 1928 01:55:38,040 --> 01:55:40,560 but back to school tax free. This I just thought was funny. 1929 01:55:40,560 --> 01:55:42,540 And I don't know, you know, just was screwy. 1930 01:55:43,470 --> 01:55:47,370 And finally a 10 day sales tax holiday and they'll in Illinois, 1931 01:55:47,490 --> 01:55:52,560 save shoppers 5% off the final cost of qualifying school items. 1932 01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:55,890 That's the key element. However, you might be surprised to hear 1933 01:55:55,890 --> 01:56:00,960 what is and is not covered. For example, a thermos does not 1934 01:56:00,960 --> 01:56:06,600 qualify. But in Armani Thai does. Same for a coach belt that 1935 01:56:06,600 --> 01:56:11,640 does count. But a geography book. No. Does not a computer 1936 01:56:11,790 --> 01:56:15,390 does not qualify either. However, a piece of lace 1937 01:56:15,420 --> 01:56:20,820 lingerie will save you 5% sales tax. Not sure exactly what dress 1938 01:56:20,820 --> 01:56:23,310 code requirements that particular back to school item 1939 01:56:23,310 --> 01:56:23,850 meet. 1940 01:56:27,210 --> 01:56:30,030 But let's just go fuck ourselves. Let's 1941 01:56:30,030 --> 01:56:35,010 spend 18 billion on hired and some teachers for that great 1942 01:56:35,010 --> 01:56:37,290 educational system because that's gonna get us out of the 1943 01:56:37,290 --> 01:56:40,410 economic depression. You know, that's what the that's what the 1944 01:56:40,410 --> 01:56:44,160 President told us. Come back from your vacation, you slaves 1945 01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:45,240 and vote for this. 1946 01:56:45,450 --> 01:56:49,260 Alright, so anyway, I just as a little aside, 1947 01:56:49,290 --> 01:56:53,610 I like that. I like that pedo bear struck again, John. Oh, 1948 01:56:53,670 --> 01:56:58,470 yes. The pedo bear strikes again to assistant Bishop assistants 1949 01:56:58,530 --> 01:57:03,570 to the bishops in Ireland. I guess they're called assistant 1950 01:57:03,570 --> 01:57:06,240 bishops. That I'm sure there's some other term for them. 1951 01:57:06,240 --> 01:57:10,650 They've got some kind of thing Monson year or whatever. Erman 1952 01:57:10,650 --> 01:57:16,800 Walsh and Ray field wanted to resign because it's very clear 1953 01:57:16,800 --> 01:57:22,050 that the church in Dublin has been covering up PTO bear 1954 01:57:22,050 --> 01:57:27,600 activities and the Pope refused the resignation. No, you can't 1955 01:57:27,600 --> 01:57:31,740 resign you have to stay at your post you cannot go not allowed 1956 01:57:31,740 --> 01:57:32,460 to resign 1957 01:57:36,300 --> 01:57:40,950 Well, you know, maybe they don't want him to quit. They want them 1958 01:57:40,950 --> 01:57:42,960 to stay they want the other guys to resign. Maybe that's a good 1959 01:57:42,960 --> 01:57:44,700 thing. So okay, I think 1960 01:57:45,990 --> 01:57:54,600 I know what you're all about. Trains. Planes bad. Yeah, one of 1961 01:57:54,600 --> 01:57:58,500 the biggest categories. Let me start it off, John with a fine 1962 01:57:58,500 --> 01:58:02,250 commercial for a wonderful children's toy. Before we get 1963 01:58:02,250 --> 01:58:04,740 into all the other news about quote, world's 1964 01:58:04,740 --> 01:58:09,600 fastest train is ticking off. Super turbo trade with Jared 1965 01:58:09,600 --> 01:58:13,920 double jump travels in scale beyond the speed of sound. And 1966 01:58:13,920 --> 01:58:19,260 so fast. It races a wall and even upside down so fast. It 1967 01:58:19,260 --> 01:58:23,760 makes the incredible Daredevil just keeps on going. There's 1968 01:58:23,760 --> 01:58:27,510 nothing else like it. Take control of a fastest and only 1969 01:58:27,540 --> 01:58:31,500 airborne train. But new super turbo train with Jared double 1970 01:58:31,500 --> 01:58:32,730 jump from Tyco. 1971 01:58:34,560 --> 01:58:39,420 Kids get it for Christmas with the Super Daredevil air jump 1972 01:58:39,420 --> 01:58:42,780 from Tyco. It's awesome because that 1973 01:58:42,780 --> 01:58:47,490 matches nicely a new story that just broke actually the eighth 1974 01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:50,670 but did you get this? I don't know if you get your how many 1975 01:58:50,670 --> 01:58:54,540 planes bad storm? Is this the tiny town? No, this is the 1976 01:58:54,600 --> 01:58:57,210 passenger booted for trying to do good. 1977 01:58:57,270 --> 01:59:02,520 Oh, yeah. Yeah, of course. Of course. She said this woman 1978 01:59:02,520 --> 01:59:05,250 smelled alcohol. She thought on the pilots breath. 1979 01:59:05,340 --> 01:59:08,100 This delta by the way, which is the world's worst airline. 1980 01:59:09,059 --> 01:59:13,229 So a reminder for those of you who are new to the program, that 1981 01:59:13,259 --> 01:59:16,979 Hill and Knowlton, one of the premier PR agencies in the world 1982 01:59:17,069 --> 01:59:21,509 is promoting the EU us high. Here they come the US high speed 1983 01:59:21,539 --> 01:59:25,949 rail Association and they're doing it mainly by the sneaking 1984 01:59:25,949 --> 01:59:29,969 in reports into your regularly scheduled news into the regular 1985 01:59:29,969 --> 01:59:35,549 Ministry of Truth items about how bad air travel is. And so 1986 01:59:35,549 --> 01:59:39,929 yeah, this woman who was on Delta she, she whispered what's 1987 01:59:39,929 --> 01:59:46,049 her name Cynthia Angel, who was the Good Samaritan? She quietly 1988 01:59:46,079 --> 01:59:48,269 whispered to the head stewardess. You know, I don't 1989 01:59:48,269 --> 01:59:51,959 know this is really weird, but I think I smelled alcohol on the 1990 01:59:51,959 --> 01:59:55,829 pilots breath. And so they took her off. She you know, she spoke 1991 01:59:55,829 --> 01:59:58,739 to some delta officials. They put her back on and 20 minutes 1992 01:59:58,739 --> 02:00:02,099 later, I guess They just kept the plane there. They said, 1993 02:00:02,099 --> 02:00:05,969 Alright slave Get off. Get off this plane, you're not flying 1994 02:00:05,969 --> 02:00:09,989 with us. You're not on the friendly skies get off. And they 1995 02:00:10,289 --> 02:00:14,129 just took a write off, of course, implying that delta 1996 02:00:14,129 --> 02:00:18,329 pilots fly drunk. Guess what it says to me, that's kind of what 1997 02:00:18,329 --> 02:00:19,769 the implication is there. 1998 02:00:20,040 --> 02:00:22,380 It's kind of what the end game story is. If you're trying to 1999 02:00:22,380 --> 02:00:24,570 get a story out there that it sounds that's that's what you 2000 02:00:24,570 --> 02:00:26,970 want to get be plastered, but they're not you're gonna you're 2001 02:00:26,970 --> 02:00:29,070 gonna be the ones thrown off.

Before we get to the 2016 02:01:24,600 --> 02:01:30,120 the main clip, of course there was this is kind of funny.

And he didn't say I'm out 2082 02:05:11,670 --> 02:05:14,610 of here until he told everybody off over the loudspeaker. And 2083 02:05:14,610 --> 02:05:16,980 the best thing about what he did is that he proved that the 2084 02:05:16,980 --> 02:05:18,960 emergency shoot actually works 2085 02:05:19,050 --> 02:05:22,590 just a day after. Interesting. Wow, 2086 02:05:22,620 --> 02:05:25,530 I mean, isn't that we're in doubt until then. Yeah, 2087 02:05:25,560 --> 02:05:28,980 because you know, gee, at least when we crash we know we can get 2088 02:05:28,980 --> 02:05:30,540 off if we're not dead. Thanks, Michael. 2089 02:05:30,540 --> 02:05:33,660 That's around the water cooler seems to be much in his favor. 2090 02:05:33,930 --> 02:05:38,070 There are Facebook pages with 10s of 1000s of fans and blogs, 2091 02:05:38,070 --> 02:05:41,850 giving him a virtual pat on the back. There are even T shirts 2092 02:05:41,850 --> 02:05:42,570 for sale. 2093 02:05:42,749 --> 02:05:46,439 This is a major percentage of our time. I'm going to go home 2094 02:05:46,439 --> 02:05:47,609 and follow him on Facebook. 2095 02:05:47,609 --> 02:05:50,819 By the way this this shot of Michael Musto, completely style 2096 02:05:50,819 --> 02:05:55,499 black backdrop beautifully lit it's so so produce, even 2097 02:05:55,500 --> 02:05:56,550 follow his tweets, 2098 02:05:56,580 --> 02:05:58,950 Slater spent the day being arraigned in a New York 2099 02:05:58,950 --> 02:06:02,910 courtroom and sitting in jail waiting to be bailed out. Does 2100 02:06:02,910 --> 02:06:04,560 he know that he's become somewhat of a folk hero 2101 02:06:04,560 --> 02:06:08,520 overnight. He has 1000s of fans on Facebook now. He is aware of 2102 02:06:08,520 --> 02:06:11,880 anything he's been isolated from any news. News coverage. Could 2103 02:06:11,880 --> 02:06:15,000 Stephen Slater have done what we've all dreamed of doing at 2104 02:06:15,000 --> 02:06:16,230 one job or another? 2105 02:06:16,410 --> 02:06:18,300 And Hathaway has a great quitting scene and the Devil 2106 02:06:18,300 --> 02:06:19,860 Wears Prada which he can't take any more than 2107 02:06:20,250 --> 02:06:23,910 cleared the rights for this scene from the movie. Well, it 2108 02:06:23,910 --> 02:06:25,380 takes a minute Yeah, beating 2109 02:06:26,460 --> 02:06:29,190 it cost money is what it's it's expensive 2110 02:06:29,640 --> 02:06:32,100 to finally just throws her cell phone in the fountain and walks 2111 02:06:32,100 --> 02:06:35,040 away. I was thinking keep the job we want to SQL. 2112 02:06:35,370 --> 02:06:36,420 This fantasy of 2113 02:06:36,420 --> 02:06:40,230 storming out of this with office space with Jennifer Aniston in a 2114 02:06:40,230 --> 02:06:41,340 blaze of glory 2115 02:06:41,340 --> 02:06:44,850 has been a recurring theme in movie after movie. This Jennifer 2116 02:06:44,850 --> 02:06:48,030 Aniston's character Joanna in office space wasn't wearing 2117 02:06:48,030 --> 02:06:53,310 enough buttons at her job. I hate this job. I hate this job 2118 02:06:53,310 --> 02:06:57,030 and I don't need it. And network Well, this one is enough to make 2119 02:06:57,060 --> 02:06:59,100 any news reporter a little nervous. 2120 02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:03,420 Mad as Hell. And I'm not gonna take this anymore. 2121 02:07:03,660 --> 02:07:06,930 Network is the iconic I'm quitting scene Peter Finch 2122 02:07:06,930 --> 02:07:09,510 deservedly won an Oscar for it. Unfortunately, he was dead by 2123 02:07:09,510 --> 02:07:12,690 time he won maybe from the rage. This character has more range 2124 02:07:12,690 --> 02:07:16,440 than Mel Gibson, but expresses himself way more poetically. 2125 02:07:16,769 --> 02:07:20,039 Only time will tell if Stephen Slater turns into another Howard 2126 02:07:20,039 --> 02:07:23,369 becomes his ex wife. He'll inspiring others to follow in 2127 02:07:23,369 --> 02:07:24,299 his footsteps. 2128 02:07:27,030 --> 02:07:29,760 Stephen Slater just said I'm not taking it anymore. This is it. 2129 02:07:29,760 --> 02:07:32,940 This is the last time and that's why it's such a fantasy that 2130 02:07:32,940 --> 02:07:36,600 people are glomming on to it's like, oh, we wish we had that in 2131 02:07:36,600 --> 02:07:40,950 us to tell people off and just walk away and take two beers. 2132 02:07:41,400 --> 02:07:44,250 That's the important thing. He definitely exited 2133 02:07:44,280 --> 02:07:50,730 in a grand fashion is a dramatic fellow. So I wouldn't expect any 2134 02:07:50,730 --> 02:07:52,320 less of him later to 2135 02:07:53,880 --> 02:07:56,310 be ex wife does. He's a dramatic fellow. 2136 02:07:57,180 --> 02:07:58,410 Drama queen. Yeah, well, 2137 02:07:59,189 --> 02:08:01,439 now he's gonna talk and it's like, oh, okay, I 2138 02:08:01,439 --> 02:08:05,219 guess it's up to seven years behind bars for his stand. But 2139 02:08:05,219 --> 02:08:08,729 he didn't slide into notoriety. Without these parting words, it 2140 02:08:08,729 --> 02:08:11,489 seems like something here has resonated with a few people. And 2141 02:08:11,489 --> 02:08:12,749 that's that's kind of neat. 2142 02:08:12,870 --> 02:08:13,920 It's kind of neat. 2143 02:08:15,750 --> 02:08:17,970 Let me there's a couple of things that need to be pointed 2144 02:08:17,970 --> 02:08:21,300 out. Please listen to this specious argument that he told 2145 02:08:21,300 --> 02:08:23,850 off his bosses and quit he didn't tell his boss he told off 2146 02:08:23,850 --> 02:08:27,390 the passengers. Yeah, the people he didn't go into the offices of 2147 02:08:27,390 --> 02:08:31,470 JetBlue and scream at the CEO and quit, like any of these 2148 02:08:31,470 --> 02:08:35,070 people that they exemplified. So that's bull crap. Yeah. The 2149 02:08:35,070 --> 02:08:37,140 second thing is you think it's a coincidence. They keep 2150 02:08:37,140 --> 02:08:39,690 mentioning this beer you're allergic to beer, Hill and 2151 02:08:39,690 --> 02:08:43,740 Knowlton, they now are leading Dutch Deus Ex keys brand and a 2152 02:08:44,280 --> 02:08:47,310 selected them to do so there's a beer meme in there that's 2153 02:08:47,310 --> 02:08:49,950 obviously been slipped in because this piece was produced 2154 02:08:50,340 --> 02:08:54,630 pretty much under the direction or with the help of Hill and 2155 02:08:54,630 --> 02:08:57,030 Knowlton that in because it was a slam piece. And it was never 2156 02:08:57,030 --> 02:08:59,520 Of course they didn't have the train meme in there, which is 2157 02:08:59,940 --> 02:09:02,730 you would have been it would have been too much. Yeah, that 2158 02:09:02,730 --> 02:09:06,000 would have been too over drinking beer. Yeah. And they 2159 02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:10,710 got their, you know, their their anti airplane meme. And so yeah, 2160 02:09:10,860 --> 02:09:14,490 but as bullcrap they he told off the passengers he didn't tell 2161 02:09:14,490 --> 02:09:17,700 off the company. And, and also, I don't know why, by the way, 2162 02:09:17,700 --> 02:09:20,160 and here's the thing that's weird about it. This guy must 2163 02:09:20,160 --> 02:09:22,140 have been working there long enough to know that if that 2164 02:09:22,140 --> 02:09:24,720 woman swung a bag and hit him in the head, he could have had her 2165 02:09:24,720 --> 02:09:28,620 hauled off. Yeah, the flown off the plane thrown into custody. 2166 02:09:28,650 --> 02:09:32,820 Yeah, and met her life would have been miserable. But instead 2167 02:09:32,820 --> 02:09:33,810 he has a hissy fit. 2168 02:09:33,839 --> 02:09:36,029 Maybe the guy was a plant to who knows? 2169 02:09:36,060 --> 02:09:39,660 I don't know. I'm beginning to wonder. Yeah. All right. Then 2170 02:09:39,660 --> 02:09:42,150 we have the clip of the week which of course, this is the 2171 02:09:42,570 --> 02:09:46,230 trains good plains bad clip of the week from Rachel Maddow, our 2172 02:09:46,230 --> 02:09:48,840 friend from MSNBC 2173 02:09:48,870 --> 02:09:53,820 first Happy New Year. Also happy largest regularly anticipated 2174 02:09:53,820 --> 02:09:58,140 human migration in the world. It is Chinese Lunar New Year on 2175 02:09:58,140 --> 02:10:01,530 Sunday, which is also the world's largest movement of 2176 02:10:01,530 --> 02:10:06,060 people from one place to other places. Chinese Lunar New Year 2177 02:10:06,060 --> 02:10:09,330 in China is called the Spring Festival. It's the most 2178 02:10:09,330 --> 02:10:12,630 important holiday in the Chinese calendar. And as people all over 2179 02:10:12,630 --> 02:10:16,320 the world do on important holidays, the Chinese travel for 2180 02:10:16,320 --> 02:10:21,930 this holiday, a big majority of China's 1.3 billion people are 2181 02:10:21,930 --> 02:10:25,260 expected to take at least one trip for New Year's totaling 2182 02:10:25,260 --> 02:10:29,700 more than two and a half billion excursions. Good news for these 2183 02:10:29,700 --> 02:10:33,300 billion or so travelers. This largest mass migration in 2184 02:10:33,300 --> 02:10:37,740 America and in American in world history is that this year, some 2185 02:10:37,740 --> 02:10:41,130 of those trips will be a lot shorter. In the last four years, 2186 02:10:41,130 --> 02:10:45,840 China has spent more than $185 billion on high speed rail, just 2187 02:10:45,840 --> 02:10:49,020 on trains. But all of that investment means is that within 2188 02:10:49,020 --> 02:10:54,750 about two years, China expects to have 42 new high speed train 2189 02:10:54,750 --> 02:10:58,140 lines for comparison here in America. We won't even have our 2190 02:10:58,140 --> 02:11:02,760 first one. We're expecting our first high speed rail line. Two 2191 02:11:02,760 --> 02:11:07,410 years after the Chinese are expecting 42 of them. We'll get 2192 02:11:07,410 --> 02:11:12,300 one within four years, China will get 42 in half the time. 2193 02:11:12,720 --> 02:11:15,660 Our one little high speed rail commitment will connect Tampa 2194 02:11:15,780 --> 02:11:20,340 and Orlando, Florida. China, on the other hand, has major train 2195 02:11:20,340 --> 02:11:23,610 routes planned to link all of its major cities. The superfast 2196 02:11:23,610 --> 02:11:27,390 trains average about 215 miles an hour. That would be like 2197 02:11:27,390 --> 02:11:31,650 traveling overland Dallas to Detroit in six hours, Birmingham 2198 02:11:31,650 --> 02:11:34,950 to Indianapolis and a little over two hours. Boston to New 2199 02:11:34,950 --> 02:11:35,610 York 2200 02:11:36,059 --> 02:11:42,299 in an hour. would be awesome if we were doing that instead of 2201 02:11:42,299 --> 02:11:45,389 China tries filibustering. 2202 02:11:47,939 --> 02:11:50,039 How long does it take to get from Boston to New York 2203 02:11:50,700 --> 02:11:51,810 45 minutes 2204 02:11:53,069 --> 02:11:57,479 to do it in an hour with a high speed train. And the way she 2205 02:11:57,479 --> 02:12:00,389 says it so dramatically as though it takes days to go. 2206 02:12:02,250 --> 02:12:03,570 You know, what's next 45 2207 02:12:03,570 --> 02:12:06,240 minutes. And by the way, we do have a high speed train. It's 2208 02:12:06,240 --> 02:12:08,610 called the Excella. And it runs up and down the eastern 2209 02:12:08,610 --> 02:12:11,760 seaboard. So she's full of crap on that. And the fact that this 2210 02:12:11,760 --> 02:12:15,240 story was obviously designed for the, you know, to propagandize 2211 02:12:15,300 --> 02:12:18,300 Americans as the EU was given away by the fact that she 2212 02:12:18,300 --> 02:12:22,860 dropped America in as a as a flub club. Yeah, it was on her 2213 02:12:22,860 --> 02:12:26,550 mind. So she's the big greatest in the history of America. I've 2214 02:12:26,550 --> 02:12:30,990 a China. She's a shills. She's a total shill. She should be 2215 02:12:30,990 --> 02:12:35,460 ashamed of herself for pushing this crap and the editorializing 2216 02:12:35,460 --> 02:12:36,690 because she doesn't care what we think. 2217 02:12:38,609 --> 02:12:40,769 Wouldn't it be great, but of course the Republicans would 2218 02:12:40,769 --> 02:12:41,639 filibuster it. 2219 02:12:42,479 --> 02:12:45,269 Yeah, that was the punchline. Yeah, the Republicans would fill 2220 02:12:45,269 --> 02:12:48,119 a budget. If you know, the Chinese would love to have our 2221 02:12:48,119 --> 02:12:51,329 air transport system, you know, where you get basically, they 2222 02:12:51,329 --> 02:12:51,569 wouldn't 2223 02:12:51,569 --> 02:12:54,899 have to wear diapers on their high speed trains. Because they 2224 02:12:54,899 --> 02:12:57,659 won't let them poop. It's true. 2225 02:12:58,050 --> 02:13:00,240 Ya know, yet they've, ya know, it's inconvenient 2226 02:13:01,200 --> 02:13:05,550 to say the least. there yet, 2227 02:13:05,939 --> 02:13:09,329 I have an end of show clip that I'd like to play. 2228 02:13:09,540 --> 02:13:11,610 Here's your friend who did the other end of show clip. 2229 02:13:11,609 --> 02:13:12,479 I still don't know. 2230 02:13:13,530 --> 02:13:15,870 We're gonna play it again until somebody can tell us who it is. 2231 02:13:15,899 --> 02:13:20,399 I'm gonna play John Pilcher today.

So we don't care. I'm John C. Dvorak. 2249 02:14:16,140 --> 02:14:19,320 We'll talk to you Ken on Sunday right here on no agenda. 2250 02:14:29,700 --> 02:14:32,400 The clever young man who recently made it to the White 2251 02:14:32,400 --> 02:14:37,890 House is a very fine hypnotist, partly because it is indeed 2252 02:14:37,890 --> 02:14:40,920 extraordinary to see an African American at the pinnacle of 2253 02:14:40,920 --> 02:14:46,680 power in the land of slavery. However, this is the 21st 2254 02:14:46,680 --> 02:14:51,810 century and race together with gender and even class can be 2255 02:14:51,810 --> 02:14:56,220 very seductive tools of propaganda for what is so often 2256 02:14:56,220 --> 02:15:00,510 overlooked and what matters I believe, above all, is the Class 2257 02:15:00,510 --> 02:15:06,300 One serves. George Bush's inner circle from the State Department 2258 02:15:06,300 --> 02:15:10,080 to the Supreme Court was perhaps the most multiracial in 2259 02:15:10,080 --> 02:15:15,420 presidential history. It was PC Power excellence. Thing 2260 02:15:15,420 --> 02:15:19,680 Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell. He was also the most 2261 02:15:19,680 --> 02:15:24,060 reactionary. Obama's very presence in the White House 2262 02:15:24,060 --> 02:15:29,250 appears to reaffirm the moral nation. He's a marketing dream, 2263 02:15:30,120 --> 02:15:33,720 but like Calvin Klein or Benetton, here's a brand that 2264 02:15:33,720 --> 02:15:37,320 promises something special, something exciting, almost 2265 02:15:37,320 --> 02:15:42,480 risque, as if he might be radical, as if he might enact 2266 02:15:42,480 --> 02:15:47,970 change. He makes people feel good. He's a postmodern man with 2267 02:15:47,970 --> 02:15:54,000 no political baggage, and all that's fake. In his book, Dreams 2268 02:15:54,000 --> 02:15:57,180 from My Father, Obama refers to the job he took after he 2269 02:15:57,180 --> 02:16:02,760 graduated from Columbia in 1983. He describes his employer as an 2270 02:16:02,760 --> 02:16:07,710 a, quote, a consulting house to multinational corporations, and 2271 02:16:07,710 --> 02:16:12,060 quote, for some reason, he doesn't say who is employee was 2272 02:16:12,330 --> 02:16:15,720 or what he did there. The employer was Business 2273 02:16:15,720 --> 02:16:19,740 International Corporation, which has a long history of providing 2274 02:16:19,740 --> 02:16:24,240 cover for the CIA with covert action and infiltrating unions 2275 02:16:24,240 --> 02:16:28,020 and the left. I know this because it was especially active 2276 02:16:28,020 --> 02:16:33,480 in my own country Australia. Obama doesn't say what he did at 2277 02:16:33,480 --> 02:16:37,170 Business International, and they may be absolutely nothing 2278 02:16:37,170 --> 02:16:43,110 sinister. But it seems worthy of inquiry and debate as a clue to 2279 02:16:43,110 --> 02:16:48,630 perhaps who the man is. During his brief period in the Senate, 2280 02:16:48,630 --> 02:16:53,730 Obama voted to continue the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He 2281 02:16:53,730 --> 02:16:57,570 voted for the Patriot Act. He refused to support a bill for 2282 02:16:57,570 --> 02:17:02,160 single payer health care, he supported the death penalty. As 2283 02:17:02,160 --> 02:17:05,790 a presidential candidate, he received more corporate backing 2284 02:17:05,790 --> 02:17:10,830 than John McCain. He promised to close Guantanamo as a priority, 2285 02:17:11,280 --> 02:17:15,420 but instead is excused torture reinstated military commissions, 2286 02:17:15,750 --> 02:17:21,780 kept the bush Gulag intact, and opposed habeas corpus. Daniel 2287 02:17:21,780 --> 02:17:27,390 Ellsberg, a great risk whistleblower, was right. I 2288 02:17:27,390 --> 02:17:30,690 believe when he said that under Bush, a military coup had taken 2289 02:17:30,690 --> 02:17:34,530 place in the United States, giving the Pentagon 2290 02:17:34,560 --> 02:17:39,480 unprecedented powers. These powers have been reinforced by 2291 02:17:39,480 --> 02:17:44,460 the presence of Robert Gates, a Bush family crony, and George W. 2292 02:17:44,460 --> 02:17:49,200 Bush's powerful Secretary of Defense. And by all the bush 2293 02:17:49,200 --> 02:17:53,610 Pentagon officials and generals who have kept their jobs under 2294 02:17:53,610 --> 02:17:57,600 Obama. In the middle of a recession with millions of 2295 02:17:57,600 --> 02:18:01,860 Americans losing their jobs and homes, a bomber has increased 2296 02:18:01,860 --> 02:18:07,020 the military budget in Colombia, he is planning to spend $46 2297 02:18:07,020 --> 02:18:11,580 million on a new military base that will support a regime 2298 02:18:11,580 --> 02:18:16,530 backed by death squads, and further the tragic history of 2299 02:18:16,530 --> 02:18:22,380 Washington's intervention in that region. In a pseudo event 2300 02:18:22,380 --> 02:18:26,340 in Prague, Obama promised a world without nuclear weapons to 2301 02:18:26,340 --> 02:18:30,090 a global audience, mostly unaware that America is building 2302 02:18:30,090 --> 02:18:34,470 new tactical nuclear weapons designed to blur the distinction 2303 02:18:34,800 --> 02:18:40,080 between nuclear and conventional war. Like George Bush, he used 2304 02:18:40,080 --> 02:18:43,890 the absurdity of Europe threatened by Iran to justify 2305 02:18:43,890 --> 02:18:49,290 building a missile system aimed at Russia and China. And another 2306 02:18:49,290 --> 02:18:53,250 pseudo event at the Annapolis Naval Academy, DEC with flags 2307 02:18:53,250 --> 02:18:57,510 and uniforms, a bomb allied them America had gone to Iraq to 2308 02:18:57,510 --> 02:19:01,440 bring freedom to that country. He announced that the troops 2309 02:19:01,440 --> 02:19:06,600 were coming home. This was another deception. The head of 2310 02:19:06,600 --> 02:19:10,890 the Army General George Casey says with some authority that 2311 02:19:10,890 --> 02:19:15,480 America will be in Iraq for up to a decade. Other generals, say 2312 02:19:15,480 --> 02:19:22,470 15 years. Chris Hedges the very fine author of empire of 2313 02:19:22,470 --> 02:19:28,920 illusion puts it very well. President Obama he wrote does 2314 02:19:28,920 --> 02:19:34,170 one thing and brand Obama gets you to believe another. This is 2315 02:19:34,170 --> 02:19:38,490 the essence of successful advertising. You buy or do what 2316 02:19:38,490 --> 02:19:43,770 the advertiser wants, because of how they make you feel. Unquote. 2317 02:19:44,820 --> 02:19:48,780 And so you are kept in a perpetual state of childishness. 2318 02:19:49,590 --> 02:19:54,660 He calls this junk politics. You can take that to the bank
