Boof a Lemon

00:00 I'll take the opium and warm orange juice, please. Another pre-Zephyr show everybody we're on the money. We're here. No, it's three in a row now three three three three in a row three in a row.

00:44 Oh man. I cry for humanity. What is this? Oh, this is what's going on. Oh, the Kavanaugh stuff. Oh, I cry for humanity. No one knows how destructive this really has been. It's very, very, very, very destructive. Probably. Yeah, I mean, beyond what people read. No one has even thought for two seconds about what this kind of conversation does to people. I mean, there were people on C-SPAN Reliving abuse. I mean there was people everywhere were reliving abuse this I'm not kidding This was really I thought it was very irresponsible What took place here? Did you hear this woman on C-SPAN? I was watching C-SPAN I watched I OD'd on C-SPAN and in one of the recesses they took some callers and listen to this, it was a heart-wrenching. And a Valley Park, Missouri Democrats line

01:43 Yes, I'm a 76 year old woman who was sexually molested in the second grade. This brings back so much pain. I thought I was over it, but it's not. You will never forget it. You get confused and you don't understand it, but you never forget. what happened to you. Without my family, I would never have been able to go through this. And now I'm 76 years old and I thought I was over it until I heard that it happened to someone else. And it is just, it is such a shame. I was in the second grade.

02:20 Listen to this a-hole. Hey Brenda, how old were you at the time? Tell me what happened. This is C-SPAN. Good catch. Tell me what happened. And it was a seventh grader at my school and you know on rainy days they have you march around the school because back then because they couldn't let you out and I would see him and I would get so upset and get So upset I've had a weight problem my whole life because I was so afraid that someone was going to hurt me And we've talked about this you know people who have severe weight problems often comes from abuse and they want to be seen as being unattractive as possible so no one will mess with them and all this stuff is coming up because of what's going on and this Jamoke here sitting there. Hey, how old were ya?

03:03 I mean when I was growing up and they had sensitive topics on the radio, of course this was Dutch national government run radio, I remember they would always say periodically throughout any program where there's something that might affect you, they would say we have people standing by if you want to talk to somebody you can talk off-air, you know if you want you can give you a referral to someone else. No, no, no, no, just how old were you? What happened? And I'm married, I have a wonderful family, I have a wonderful husband and a child and great-great-grandchildren and grandchildren and I thought I was over this and I have not brought this up for years until I heard this testimony and it is just breaking my heart. Brenda, thank you. Thank you very much for sharing your story.

03:49 Now there's some abuse right there. Thanks for sharing your story. Great. Now you're lost. Next. Yes. Give me a Republican sob story. Um, but I do mean that, I mean, the lack of sensitivity, I think is a severe lack of saying would be if I, you know, it's one of those things because it's C-SPAN. They're usually used to, they're used to crank calls, but they're not used to that. And I think the guy just choked. Yeah. Yeah, but but my point is I'm not gonna fault him the way you just did because I think he just choked Okay, you give me this face. This is not where you know the big boys that top drawer stuff I don't know if the c-span got some ratings. I'll tell you

04:34 But the overall point has got to be made is that the cavalierness with which people are speaking about this, particularly politicians, pundits, and other giant heads on television, is really without any regard. There's just no thought went into it. Zero. Which is par for the course, but I think it used to be different. Like, well, this could... People think about this stuff. At least give me a hotline number or a place to call if I have something to say. I think you're right about that little bit there you might be right about. It's like, why are we doing this without having some, you know, a safety net? Yeah. There's not a single... So the whole thing is a giant joke. Yeah, it is. I would wager to say there's not a single woman who has not thought about some event in her history during this

05:32 shit show that's been going on. You were not just women but you were talking about the guy with the darts in your... That's pretty gross. I've been groped by men. I've been sexually assaulted by men. Tell us more. How old were you? 716 you didn't do it right. How old tell us how old you were it was a fake intention That happens in Amsterdam, you know like I was a I guess I was a Twinkie looking guy and some guy come up like hey Like yeah, yeah, I got off of me which I have another question Do mom's no longer?

06:21 Teach their daughters the old knee to the groin trick I haven't heard this come up in the conversation once and I remember my mom very clearly telling my sisters But also me if there's anyone if anyone ever is doing anything you need them right in the groin as hard as you can do is yes as hard as you can yeah, it's do with enthusiasm like you mean it and Is that not taught anymore? I just wonder. I don't know. Do the millennial do that? I never thought about it, but it should be taught. It's a very good methodology for, you know, unless the guy's wearing a catcher's baseball cup. Yeah. Well, but I remember my mom had toothache. She had that. You just need a guy as hard as you can in the groin. Apparently works for women as well.

07:06 And she also had this really, she had a charm bracelet and it always fascinated me. And while I was thinking of this yesterday that came to me, I wrote it down. She had this little charm and like it was probably about, I'd say half an inch by half an inch square. And it was a little silver box with a lid and in it was mechanically folded into this very small box a $10 bill, which you know back in the 70s, wow, a $10 bill was, you know, it was like a hundred bucks or more in today's money. And that was, you know, it's like, yes I have this charm and of course I don't need it anymore but I always had this charm bracelet on when I went out as if I ever needed to get a taxi back I could take care of myself and I had my own money in my charm bracelet and I would need the guy in the groin if he got fresh with me. None of that is discussed anymore. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong I just don't hear it, you know, because maybe that's part of the new

08:05 The new way to be proper, you have to be nice to everybody. You can't knee them in the groin. So I did go, I watched everything. I'm sure you watched just about everything. I watched just about everything. I couldn't take it. I listened to the entire, how long is it? Seven minutes of her Her testimony with that speaking 100% vocal fry. Little girl's voice. I have mixed feelings about it. Yes, well you're right. The little girl's voice was very... for a doctor in psychology and also for a doctor in psychology to do a polygraph isn't that like a medical doctor going to a witch doctor? I mean isn't there...

08:57 If you're a psychologist... According to the intelligence agencies, it's kind of something that can easily be defeated. But according to at least one of the documents about it, mostly there's a lot of bullshit flying around, it's really annoying, is that she was never asked about Kavanaugh specifically. She just asked about the incident. She seemed like she may have been hypnotized or something. Well, I'm gonna tell you this, John. I'll just say it right up front. The only question that matters right now in America today, and I've seen it in Europe as well, I've followed the European publications, is who do you believe? Like it's a binary thing.

09:39 Who do you believe? I think they're both full of shit. I'm with you. Oh no, the guy is, there's no question if you look at him, you know, he's got the rosacea cheeks, the whole thing. The guy isn't, I didn't think about this at the time. I don't know if it's going to affect his judgeship. He's an alcoholic. Or he, well, I know he's, or he was, he may not be anymore. So let's just establish we both agree that In this, regardless of what happened or did happen, they both were lying about all kinds of stuff. And the discussion of buffing or bofos or whatever, there's a bunch of terms they used, which at the time referred to having drinks up the butt. Oh, is that what it referred to? Yeah.

10:26 Oh God! Well if you think about it, I didn't realize that. If you remember the 80s, barely, if you remember the 80s you didn't do them right, okay? Now there was this discussion that kids were doing this because they didn't want to have alcohol on their breath and they had all these issues and so they turns out that you could take alcohol up the butt And that's what his references were. I love how you say that. It turns out, like some massive discovery, you can take alcohol up the butt. Yeah, and then you can still get a buzz without having a drink.

11:09 And I guess they were employing this practice in high school or wherever and it wasn't really discussed in detail at the hearings, which you had to do a little research to find out what the hell they were talking about. The guy said it was a flatulence joke. Yeah, the flatulence joke, right. That was the get out of jail free card to say that, but it was still, it's not what it was. It was taking alcohol up the butt. Okay, now you have this on what authority? I believe you. Oh, the Urban Dictionary. Ah, well there you go. That seals the deal. There's page after page about it, and in context, that's exactly what it was.

11:53 I mean, if you think about it in context of what these guys were doing, and I love beer and all the rest of it, it was totally, these guys were a bunch of drunks, they're a bunch of prep school, this is, I don't wanna, we have prep school people listen to the show. Very few of them made the Eagle Scouts, let me start with that premise. The prep school boys were, and I know we have some that listen to the show and they like the show, but I'm gonna say this anyway, and many of them know I'm right. Generally, jerk-offs. Yeah, and drank too much. They were privileged They act privileged. They're part of the elites, you know I'm gonna play something that supports what you're saying and it was something that I didn't really consider and He called me about it, but he actually recorded a video One of his famous video Steve Pacheco had a thought on this whole thing, which is not what anyone is thinking at all. I

12:50 He, of course, is our psychological warfare expert. He has some standing in the matter. But listen to his take on this whole circus. This week we have witnessed a total circus of buffoonery on both the Republican and the Democratic sides. This was not about alcoholism. This wasn't even about the rape of women. What this was about was about collusion of people who went to the same schools and had the same religion. Let me be very specific. Among the Democrats and Kavanaugh, every one of them, almost every one of them went to Yale University. Among the Republicans, four out of 11, that's 36 percent, are Mormons. Let me be more specific.

13:38 When Amy Klobacher was asking... I like his Klobuchar. Klobacher. Klobacher. Klobacher. That's her new name, by the way. It's not Klobuchar, it's Klobacher. Yeah. Well, it's Steve, you know, he's in a rush. Mormons. Let me be more specific. When Amy Klobacher was asking questions of Kavanaugh who went to Yale Law School, I was wondering why is she so adamant she went to Yale? Then I looked at Cory Booker, who what I call the pixie from New Jersey, flitting around, standing up, making a drama of himself. He's Spartacus. And then I said, I wonder where he went to school. It was Yale University. But folks, he got a degree at Oxford. Now let me tell you something about Oxford. You pay for that degree.

14:31 including Gorsuch, you can get a PhD at Oxford University in England for a minimal sum and just buy the teacher some liquor and you can read a book and write an essay. Ed, do you think that's true? Well, if I knew about this, I'd be a PhD by now. Right? That's how you get a PhD. But that wasn't enough. Then I look at Sidney Blumenthal and I looked at his totally reconstructed face. No job. His face. And I said, my God, doesn't he look familiar? I wonder where he went to law school. It was Yale, folks.

15:08 Then I looked at Whitehead, Charlie Sidney Sheldon Whitehead. His father went to Yale. Whitehouse. Whitehead. Whiteheads, Whitehouse. I think you know what he's saying. Was running against another candidate in Rhode Island who also went to Yale and was in skull and bones. And guess what? Whitehead went to Yale. Kavanaugh went to Yale. So what exactly do we have here? We don't have Republicans. We don't have Democrats. What we have is a major geriatric unit with Grassley, 85, Feinstein, 85, other people. The average age of both groups was about 232.

15:49 But then I noticed there were Mormon women for ethical behavior, and they came after four Mormons. One was Orrin Hatch. The second one was, it's Orrin Hatch, Mike Lee, Jeff Flake, and Mike Krapa. the were from Yale University. So I'm wondering where exactly is the representation of America from the South, the West, from Texas, from Howard University? It turns out only one woman went to Howard University, Ms. Harris. Now he's going to wrap it up. It turned out only one person may have gone to Columbia. I don't know who it was. But guess who also went to Yale University? Every one of the Democrats who said, let's turn it to the FBI. Guess who went to Yale?

16:51 Comey went to Yale, and the present head of the FBI, Christopher Wray, was also a Yale graduate. Now, isn't this amazing that most of our government, including the Clintons, the Bushes, John Bolton, Bob Woodward, Dave Martin, all went to Yale? And what I'm saying is, this is a school that should cease and desist. exporting out the second quality intellects that we have and the sociopaths that are coming into our lives. Let me quote Abraham Lincoln. He said, any person can handle adversity, but if you want to test that person, give them power. Thank you and good night. Yeah, we got to close this school. This school is the problem.

17:35 Well, that's what someone from Harvard might say. Yeah. That's the other elitist school which seems to have been kicked out of office and replaced by the Yalies. It started with Bush. Yeah, the skull and bones, skull and bones. Bush was a Yale cheerleader, literally. Yeah, skull and bones. And skull and bones. And Kerry was in skull and bones. Yeah, everyone was, all these Yalie guys. Yeah, and gals. It's a known fact that Yale has been dominating the political scene. So you also think that a lot of these Yale people would know what was going on, what really happened, because Yale stories are Yale stories and don't they talk to each other? They must. Of course they do. They must. There were some things in the timeline that I found interesting. For instance, according to Klobuchar, what's that? Klobuchar?

18:26 Like Klobacher's. If you look at it, it could be pronounced that way. Dr. Ford sent her letter when there was still a shortlist. He wasn't the nominee. It was... Now, that's according to the timing that we know about, which maybe we don't know anything to be true or not. True. So if she sent it while he was still on the shortlist, I think that's a very... That slants it a little bit more in her favor. Okay. Don't you think? No, I just think it's the whole thing is rigged. It's some something phony about the whole deal. It's really bothersome Finally yeah, and I finally found the I found the nut I do have a bunch of possession clips Yeah, I got some stuff. You know just just I'll do on the letter for one moment This was the for me the funniest moment of the entire eight hours that I saw I

19:23 was at a certain point, points are made about this letter and the three parties that had the letter. It was Feinstein, it was Eshoo, and it was the lawyers. And who could have leaked this to the media? So well, Diane, it must be you. And this was just the funniest exchange I've ever heard. Mr. Chairman, let me be clear. I did not hide Dr. Ford's allegations. I did not leak her story. She asked me to hold it confidential, and I kept it confidential as she asked. She apparently was stalked by the press, felt that what happened, she was forced to come forward, and her greatest fear was realized. She's been harassed, she's had death threats, and she's had to flee her home.

20:18 I was given some information by a woman who was very much afraid, who asked that it be held confidential. And I held it confidential until she decided that she would come forward. Mr. Chairman, would the Ranking Member answer a question, please? If I can. I have great respect for Senator Feinstein. We've worked together on many topics and I believe what you just said. Can you tell us that your staff did not leak it? So she turns around to someone behind her. Oh, I don't believe my staff would leak it. I have not asked that question directly, but I do not believe they would. Do you know that? I mean, how in the world could that get in the hands of the press? The answer is no. The staff said they did not. Have you asked your staff?

21:12 Or other staff members in the judiciary? You turn around and say, hey, did you leak that? No. No, my staff did not leak it. That's the one woman behind her. Pardon me? Well, Jennifer reminds me I've asked her before about it. That's true. Well, somebody leaked it if it wasn't you. Well, it was, I'm telling you, it was not, I did not. I mean, I was asked to keep it confidential. And I'm criticized for that too. No, poor Diane. Yeah, I like that though. Well, since Ford went right to the Washington Post because she was so concerned about confidentiality that I wonder who's really behind all this. And the other element was what finds or is now Trump calls or Feinstein. He's doing that on purpose. What Feinstein is, Feinstein is said apparently the

22:10 She was being stalked and tracked by the press they were hounding her. Yeah, they already knew about her, but this is before yeah well so somebody knew about it before anything because what would the press be? Behind her of course as I said this is very sketchy. This is this is the most inauthentic piece we've ever seen everybody was lying everybody Everybody. It was purely political. Everyone was lying. I think the judge is lying to save his ass. I think the doctor, I'm not sure where she's coming from, but she's not telling the truth. It's just everything's a lie. Everything. That is the only way to look at it. It can't be she, oh I stand with her, I believe... No, you can't. No. Impossible. Will we ever know the truth? Probably not.

23:06 Well, the FBI is going to do something and they're not going to find anything. I'm telling you this guy is not going to be confirmed. Not going to happen. Well, that's the idea. Yeah, not going to happen. That way you can leverage the election because whether he gets confirmed or not, it's not beside the point. They got to win. They can't let the Democrats take over the place. So let's see. In fact, there was a Go a lot of different directions. Let's stay with the cabinet thing I do have a little one clip this kind of us in a side clip which is how the seventh investigation what it's really gonna be about that It's this is the FBI seventh investigation background or what what what what's in what's it going to entail like for joining us? Judge Kavanaugh has undergone six background checks. How will this investigation be different? Well, obviously those background searches

23:53 are specific as to his character for the six times. Every one more extensive than the next as he moved up the ladder. And this one though, it has to do with additional evidence that was presented at the hearing. I.e., people were named, a diary was used, There were other people that have come forward, other people who have made allegations. All those people will be interviewed as soon as possible. We know that Dr. Ford was administered a polygraph test. Is that something the FBI will also administer? The FBI will not administer polygraphs because it's not evidence. It can't be used in a criminal case. We don't use them in a criminal case. It's an investigative tool. She's already passed that polygraph, but we would ask those people who the particular polygrapher is. Is this an expert? I don't know where this person was. I don't know who the polygrapher is.

24:49 But, obviously, whatever was said, it's already been out there. It's something to look at, okay? But we would never use it. They're not going to use it in these interviews. They're going to go out and conduct this investigation in a thorough manner as quickly as possible. And then they will report no opinion. They will report that to the people who are on the committee. Warren Flagg, thank you very much for joining us. You're welcome. What did she say? One flag? Warren Flanagan. So this polygraph thing is also very annoying You need to know what the questions are a polygraph is not you know It's not like a lie detector test and you sit down there's a they put nodes on you say hey did that really happen? Yeah, you passed no that's not that's not that's not how this stuff works at all

25:38 You know and I think there were only two questions that were shared with everyone from that polygraph test. It's completely that's complete theater posturing and more proof that this is just all kinds of crap on both sides. She took a polygraph test. More proof that something's amiss. About this investigation the following. Dr. Ford's statement Jesse her attorney Debra Cassett just put out a statement and this could be a big problem in terms of potentially blowing up this tentative deal we keep hearing about to delay this only one week because listen closely, Deborah Katz, Dr. Ford's attorney, a thorough FBI investigation is critical to developing all the relevant facts. Dr. Christine Ford welcomes this step

26:19 in the process and appreciates the efforts of Senators Flake, Murkowski, Manchin, and Collins, and all the other senators who have supported an FBI investigation to ensure it is completed before the Senate votes on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination. That all sounds positive. Here's the bad part for the Senate leaders. No artificial limits, they say, as to time or scope should be imposed on this investigation. Well, what does that mean? That means that Dr. Ford's team is saying no to a one-week deadline as the president has ordered and Senator Flake and others have promised to. And they're also saying no limit on scope. Well, what does that mean? Well, the Senate Judiciary Committee said the deal is that they're only looking at current

27:00 and credible allegations as in the doctor for delegations that are considered current before them and consider credible even the president said the doctor ford was credible in her testimony yesterday meaning if michael avenatti or someone else comes up with something new over the weekend or next tuesday or next wednesday that might not be deemed credible uh... it is not currently before the Judiciary Committee, they were not supposed to look at it. Dr. Ford's legal team is saying the opposite in this statement, that it should not be a one-week limit and that they should look at anything and everything. That is just what conservatives feared, and now Dr. Ford's team is opening the door. Oh yeah. More stalling. Oh yeah, oh yeah. This is just going to continue and it's really, you know, this country, America was already divided. I mean you go over to Europe and everything, everyone's like, ah, he did it. Sure boy. Yeah, Republican Trump, he did it.

27:52 But here, this division, and now you're dividing men and women and just all kinds of things. That's a long-term goal. It must be a goal because they're succeeding. They're succeeding. You can't... no one can have a conversation... if someone says to you, hey, who do you believe? You said, oh I'm sorry, I had a root canal and I missed everything. Don't fall for this trap. Don't answer the question. I'm really... I'm not educated. I had a root canal. I'm sorry I missed it. Why don't you bring me up to speed? That's the only thing you can say. No, you don't need to say that. Now we have this... You just sound a sod off. Sod off. Now we have this other meme propagated by...

28:35 Radio talk show guy is in Michael Savage Michael Michael Savage Savage Nation well, whatever But it's being it's it's being it tweeted everywhere, and he read it very seriously on the air and so I presume There's something to it dr. Ford happens to head up the CIA undergraduate internship program at Stanford University Which is very odd unto itself? How did she get the job? Well listen carefully? Christine's brother Ralph the third, interesting that the word Ralph comes back for some reason I don't know why it just tickled me, used to work for the international law firm of Baker Hostetler the firm that created Fusion GPS which is the company which wrote the Russian dossier. Baker Hostetler is located in the same building where the CIA operates three companies called Redcoats Inc., Admiral Security Services and Data Watch.

29:32 who runs them they are operated by Ralph Blasey the second he happens to be the father of doctor Ford and Ralph the third but it gets even deeper Christine and Ralph the third's grandfather was Nicholas Deak former CIA director William Casey acknowledged Deak's decades of service to the CIA. Spot the spook spot the spook everybody wants to spot the spook I gotta tell you, even this sounds like a great conspiracy theory to me. I have not been able to corroborate any of this. No, in fact I had a great little back and forth with some idiot on Twitter.

30:15 None of you saw it was pretty funny. No, I posted the note which would have the outline of this information I said, I don't know this doesn't set this sounds like a very convenient Explanation and it needs to be Verified yes, and the sky chimes, and he says well, that's very unprofessional of you to post this you You should post it only after you verified it. And so I went off on him saying professional. I'm what am I, a professional Twitter guy? I do. I get paid by Twitter. How am I a professional? Hey, fact check. Fact check. False. Unprofessional me to tweet something. Give me a break. John, I hate to break it to you, but since you lost your column, you're not even a professional anymore. You're just a podcaster. A professional podcaster. A podcaster. Get off of Twitter, you podcaster. I will say this, The Savage is pretty good.

31:08 Not taking in a lot. So I don't know where he got this. He never says he's got no references off the top of his it wasn't off the top of his head because he read it right and I have no idea but he's got a lot of context he's been doing this gig for a real long time unless somebody really... But he's got like five, five massive things in there. One, she... Oh, there's massive. She trains spooks at the undergraduate program at Stanford. I mean, what? I don't know such a program. But she's not even listed on staff? Okay. But that's what I mean. All this stuff is not healthy. In fact, I got a very nice note from a producer, Lisa.

31:51 Adam this whole thing with Kavanaugh has triggered all my universe be friends again It's like the hashtag me to switch was flipped back on again Someone has even organized a get-together to literally flip tables and punch things Thank you. I gotta read this to you. But she says thank you for your sanity because seriously without no agenda I'd be a mess right now along with all my friends and there's this event bright that she sent me the link to and it's called the rage room and It's scheduled for October 14th. Flip a table, flip a district. And here we go. Description. Who? Who should come? Angry, rage-filled women who would enjoy a chance to let it all out and are committed to changing the status quo and electing women into office that will rage against the patriarchy. Tickets $25. All proceeds go to Emily's List. Here's what we're gonna do.

32:48 It's on Sunday, October 14th from 2 to 5. We're doing this in time to contribute for the midterm elections. Where? Wendy's house in Evanston. You don't need... You don't need to know her to come let out the rage. She is rad and has rage. How? Show up. Please bring a bottle or bottles of something to share, alcoholic or not. Mingle and hang with radical ladies. We'll have some light snacks. It is an awesome chance to meet amazing women and more importantly, beat something. You will be able to take a turn at smashing the shit out of a pinata. Punching the hanging punching bag, which is a face of some horrendous old white politician that will be attached. Bring gloves if you have them. Flip a kid's small plastic table. Scream into a pillow. Many pillows will be provided. And burn the names or pictures of anything that represents the rage you have had burning listening to old white politicians respond to Dr. Ford, listening to Trump, and just generally moving through the world as a woman.

33:54 I dropped into a bunch of dimension B people just to... you go on Twitter, you just click on their thing, you don't... you do not interact. No. I warn anyone never to interact. No interacting. No interacting. It's like being in a different... it is like being in a different dimension. You just float around and don't cause trouble. You go through, there is a massive anti-patriarch thing going on. And there's a few men that are buying into it, which is we get, be a traitor against the patriarch, it's the patriarch, and it goes on and on about how subscribing to its, I don't know, the funny thing is, the real irony to this is that most of the people involved with the Smash the Patriarch movement are Muslim women.

34:42 Really? Yeah, and in fact Linda Sansour finally shows up, my favorite punching bag because she's just so obnoxious, in the discussion about this woman here and then she comes out screaming into the microphone like she does with her headdress on and she's just as soon to have Sharia law than anything else but But it's a lot of this anti-patriarch thing and it's a major, major, major, and I hate to do that, undercurrent that I think is gonna crop up here and there and it's gonna get rejected because there is no patriarch

35:23 per se, women aren't completely... John, if you just heard the rage room, it's all about the patriarchy and somehow in the 50 years I've been around, a little bit longer, you know, I was taught two wrongs don't make a right. But somehow it's gone from, well, you guys suck, the world sucks, it was run by men, therefore the patriarchy, and screw you, we hate you, we're gonna pretend to hit you, we're gonna hit you with sticks and scream into pillows and yell at you and... I'd like to be a fly on the wall in that thing. Yes, well this is being fomented.

36:01 Yes, yes, yes. And the people fomenting it, many of them are Muslim women, radical Muslim women. I find it to be very peculiar. Interesting. Well, there's a lot going on and a lot being said. Let's play some more clips because the clips are kind of funny. Yeah. Let's play, here I got the Trump clip, which comes out of the helicopter, whatever they're asking him stuff. And I thought this was a little revealing. This is Trump and his blessing in disguise commentary. This is the end of it. hold on a second. It's all under the cab stuff. Oh, okay. Ah, yes, I got it here. At the top of the list and I hope everything works out great, but I will say there are a lot of people going out right now working very hard. Well, I think it's fine. I think actually this could be a blessing in disguise because having the FBI go out, do a thorough investigation,

36:54 Whether it's three days or seven days, I think it's going to be less than a week. But having them do a thorough investigation, I actually think Hey, hold on a second. Since when is he talking about body language?

37:29 I thought that was incredibly revealing. That's new. Because it's possible that he might be, for all we know, because there are courses you can take, and if you're a sales guy, which he is at the core of everything, body language is quite important to be able to read. Well, it's like micro expressions. You got to be able to catch those and there's like a fact There's a very famous professor over here at the University of California, San Francisco. I think is a merit as he's retired I can't don't have his name, but John it's not about what he said in the clip It's about what he didn't say in the clip. There was nothing about he's a good man. I believe him Yeah, yeah, yeah listen

38:10 This thing has been a setup, the whole thing is disgusting. Yeah, we've said that at the same time. But I'm going to give you... But there's revelations here. One is the body language aspect and the second one is that he wants the FBI to find out who leaked this thing and started this, because it wasn't part of his script. Yeah, I'm not so sure about that. Let me tell you the judge Napolitano did some kind of course somewhere. It was like in an auditorium He was talking about this is back in July. Someone sent me this this video and there's so July I don't think there was a shortlist yet. No, there was a shortlist. There was no final pick Maybe it was I don't recall exactly the date. I

38:56 But Napolitano made two points about the Fourth Amendment, and I thought they were very important in context of Kavanaugh and his nomination by Trump, which I believe to be a complete red herring, meant to fail. He probably hates the guy. And here's why. Judge Napolitano is talking about the Fourth Amendment, how important it is, and then he mentions this story. The right to be left alone which of course today we call privacy. The fourth is the most unique one because it says the people, doesn't say the citizens, it says the people shall not be interfered with in their persons, houses, papers and effects. Persons, houses, papers and effects. Except by a warrant signed by a judge based on probable cause.

39:47 Probable cause means probable cause of crime. It doesn't mean probable cause that you're talking to a book agent in Florence, a real case in which the NSA was listening to a conversation in Italian. They thought they were hearing a terrorist. They were just hearing a guy in New York trying to buy a book from the book agent in Florence. When the case came to court, the judge said, well, there's no prosecution here. They didn't come after you for anything you said. Therefore, there's no violation of the Fourth Amendment. Who wrote that opinion?

40:23 No. See if you've heard of this guy. So he writes Kavanaugh on the board, which of course is a violation of the Fourth Amendment. And then he closes with this one. If the government really believes that our laws are natural, then how could we have the Patriot Act which permits federal agents to write their own search warrants, forgetting the requirement that only judges can issue search warrants under the Fourth Amendment. I could tell you stories about the Patriot Act, but not only does it permit federal agents to write their own search warrants, so FBI agent A writes a search warrant authorizing FBI agent B, there's got to be at least two of these characters involved in this,

41:01 and then B can serve the search warrant. And when they serve the search warrant, they say, by the way, you can't tell anybody that we served this on you. That's another violation. You can't tell anybody. The government's going to enforce silence? What about Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech? What young lawyer was the scrivener when they were putting together the Patriot Act? There he is. Kavanaugh, I'm telling you John, Trump sees this guy as a Bush loyalist, a Yaley sink peer, and he wants this guy crushed and a message sent to all Yaley's. All Yaley's are going down. He wants this guy crushed in exactly the manner in which it's happened. Maybe not exactly this manner because it's gotten out of control, but this guy needs to be easy. And I don't like him either. He wrote this for the Patriot Act? Screw this guy.

41:58 He can't be a Supreme Court judge. I'm not going to argue with you about any of this. The thesis that he's going to be used as set as an example to the Yalies. It's a little new. It's new. It's a little new. I mean, you got that from Pachenik. Yes, of course. Of course. I didn't think about that part. It makes it more interesting. Yeah. So that means that all we're going to see is more suffering. More suffering. More women coming out. Oh yeah, this guy is going to, going to, it's sad. But when he was so angry, I think he realized he got double-crossed. Now he blamed it on, you know, because, you know, revenge for Clinton losing, which by the way was the mistake of his career. The mistake of his career to ever say something like that. That made him look small and petty and I don't know why he said that. But he, when he came out guns blazing, he knew he had been double-crossed. I don't think so. I don't think, no, here's what I'm saying. I don't think he thinks he's been

42:55 double-cross because you're the only one and I mean I and I will agree with it but you're the only one making the thesis in such a way I don't think he's thinking that he's thinking exactly what he should be thinking which is he's getting screwed over by these Democrats and it's getting this and we and these crazy women and he's got to people take revenge he said nothing to do with Trump In his mind, maybe and and in fact of the whole thesis of Trump being behind his being uses a Yaley example certainly he certainly yeah, he didn't know he didn't it is pretty Obscure it's real. I can argue that point. It's good possibility But there's no it's not mainstream media is not done. There's no No, no well

43:47 So I don't think he thinks he's been double-crossed. I think he just got mad because he's a hot-headed Irishman. Which of course was completely the worst thing you could do and this clip blows me away in context of your frequent telling and retelling of the story of Barbara Boxer. You do not have to get back into the story again but I think I can summarize by saying we know from first-hand account that Barbara Boxer if you were a man would have been seen as sexually aggressive and with unwanted advances. Can I say that? Is that slanderous or can I say that we... By the way, I'm not bringing this story up over and over again. You are telling me to tell the story. No, no, no. I said, I just said you don't have to talk about it. I just want to know. No, I know. I'm just saying you're implying that I love the story. No, no, no. You put that shoe on, man. I didn't present that to you. I just said you've told the story.

44:41 I told it once and then you made me reiterate it numerous times. You've had me do it. You like the story. I love the story, but I don't want you to tell it again. Just say it. I'm not telling it again, but she's a, you know, okay, well with that in mind, what, most people have heard the story at least twice. So with that in mind, what is it, where are you going with it? Well, when someone who in, as we know professionally was a sexual assaultist, That's what she was. This is the story. She was just flirting. Okay, but if you were nice, I preface by saying if she were a man, she would have hung from the highest tree. Oh yeah, that's my point. It would not be good. So how does she talk about this situation? Well, let me say it was an exhausting day. I think for everybody and especially for women who've had this experience.

45:32 and for women who have had relationships with very angry men. And I think, you know, I've listened to your commentary. I think you're right. All of a sudden we see a man transformed from a choir boy who up to now has said after hours in front of the committee, he lived this very perfect life. All of a sudden his anger is triggered. And what we saw today is someone who you could now see attacking a woman. It's very frightening. And I think

46:09 Your guest, who was so good and said, temperament is so important for who you put on the court. This guy not only showed this belligerent anger, but he had like a personality transformation. Now, what do I think will happen? We all know it's a few Republicans who really hold this decision on their shoulders. I don't know anyone who didn't think that Dr. Ford was credible. And when she said, I am 100% sure who this was, I believe her. It's up to them. Do they believe her? And the last point I'll make is, if you are undecided, there's only one way to know, and that's to get an independent background check. And frankly, anyone who doesn't support that doesn't want to get to the truth, and that includes Judge Kavanaugh.

47:04 So, there you go. And we know where she's coming from. So I find that quite... Yeah, she's disingenuous. She's just another phony. Now... Just one thing. If you have a chance, next time she's on, take a look at her eyes. There's something... She's gone into like full beast mode, shape-shifting eyes. She's a lizard. No, she has drawn her eyes with black pencil because they're much smaller than I mean they're turning into little beady rat eyes. Maybe losing control of the shape-shifting. You should take a look at it. It's very odd what she's doing with her eye makeup. Now, she makes a good point.

47:40 And I think this is the point that they should be making. Again, the Democrats can't focus. Right now, they're focusing on stalling and they shouldn't be doing that. They should just let this thing slide because it takes their argument and weakens it. Their argument should be exactly the temperament argument. When he went into his little... Most of the time, he's calm, he's fine, but then he went nuts. And a couple of times I started screaming and yelling and crying, which was sincere. It wasn't like anything is faking. But it was like, it's a temperament thing. I think it's enough because the one vote they're gonna lose, if you want a prediction, Susan Collins maybe, but that's not the one I'm thinking. I'm thinking Murkowski.

48:25 And Murkowski, you've got to remember, Murkowski is a Republican and she's the 51st vote, but Murkowski was screwed over by the Republican Party. And she's not that loyal. She is not the one that's gonna say, well, you know, yeah, you can, she's not the type that is going to be anything but independent because the Republican Party, And it was mainly the conservatives in the Republican parties that railroaded her in a primary and kicked her off the ballot. And she said, this is bull crap. It was some Tea Party people.

49:04 And she said, this is nonsense. I'm going to run as a write-in candidate. And she won the state of Alaska as a write-in candidate. How often does that happen? She has got to feel like, wow, I can do whatever I want. No one's going to touch me. So she's going to vote no. Well, if she votes no, then Collins will vote no. Yes. If she votes no and Collins knows it, Collins will vote no. Because she doesn't want to be yes on one person. No woman in politics would vote against this. I mean, would vote for him, let me put it that way. There's no way. You'll never get reelected.

49:49 This is about men and women. This has nothing to do with the judge's capability, has nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats. It's just men, women, men, shit, women, not shit. I think the temperament thing, if they focused on that, they've got a winner. But they're too stupid to focus on anything. Now, I ran into a couple of interesting... I thought Lindsey Graham has become very interesting as a character. Yes. Because his sugar daddy passed recently and so he's now on his own and so he's decided to become a tough guy. And so he's yelling and screaming constantly and it's very entertaining. I do have his little tirade here and of course this tirade won't affect again.

50:38 The woman from Alaska this Lindsay Liz says lawns. I got it. Yeah FBI station you could have come to us what you want to do is destroy this guy's life Hold this seat open and hope you win in 2020. You've said that not me You've got nothing to apologize for When you see Sotomayor and Kagan, tell them that Lindsey said hello. Because I voted for them. I like that. That's the part I like the most. I voted for them. I wouldn't do this to them. Say hi. I would never do to them what you've done to this guy. This is the most unethical sham since I've been in politics. And if you really wanted to know the truth, you sure as hell wouldn't have done what you've done to this guy. I cannot imagine what you and your family have gone through.

51:29 Boy, y'all want power. God, I hope you never get it. I hope the American people can see through this sham, that you knew about it and you held it. You had no intention of protecting Dr. Ford, none. She's as much of a victim as you are. God, I hate to say it because these have been my friends. But let me tell you when it comes to this, you're looking for a fair process. You came to the wrong town at the wrong time, my friend. To my Republican colleagues, If you vote no, you're legitimizing the most despicable thing I have seen in my time in politics. You want this seat? I hope you never get it. I hope you're on the Supreme Court. That's exactly where you should be. And I hope that the American people will see through this charade. And I wish you well. And I intend to vote for you. And I hope everybody who's fair-minded will.

52:32 With Lindsey Graham's newfound testicular valor, there's a lot of jokes being made. You just made one which you know, it's coming. Hey look, I've known you for a long time. You're an old white dude. So you say hey, he lost his sugar daddy and we all chuckle about it because it's us here. The little no agenda show. But when you're a staunch liberal and you are all in on LGBTQ, actually let me do it properly, LGBTQQIAPK, if you're all in on that and all about, you know, Black Lives Matter and the patriarchy sucks, how the hell can you start doing stuff like what Bill Maher is doing? Did you see this? Maybe he was turned around because he was confronted when he was getting on the elevator.

53:17 So he's not talking about Lindsay yet. This is Flake. That's what you're telling me, I mean when I'm talking to you, you're telling me that my assault doesn't matter. Alright we're all for women, your assault doesn't matter. I haven't seen a guy take it in the elevator like that since Beyonce's sister kicked Jay-Z in the nuts. Oh, and then they tried cornering Lindsey Graham, but he but he got away because he's familiar with the back door I Think it's funny

53:57 But are you allowed to? It's incredibly... it is... yes, I know exactly what you mean for these guys, these up... these high-minded liberals to be using jokes like that. It's beyond... it's unbelievable. What happened to the LGBT community? The G is no... it's just to be made fun of? Now there's a clip that I pulled, John, from this show. It is so unhinged. April Ryan is on it. There's two other people. It doesn't even matter who's on it. I'd like you to listen to it because it shows you how... I mean, and it goes much further with the gay jokes and everything. It's really, really unhinged. But we can't just listen to it. We have to step into the machine because otherwise you can't get the form. I'm just gonna do it. Are you ready? We gotta get into it. Uh-oh, the machine's okay. Going to Dimension B. Grab the dog!

54:49 Here we go. Stand by everybody. Alternate universe coming up. Ugh. Alright, there's Sparky. Sparky made it. Here we are in the alternative universe where everything is funny. He was rehearsed. And he was like the president. He went off script when he was asked about the FBI. He had all this righteous rage and indignation and then he was asked by Durbin, okay well if you really want to clear your name, write over there, ask for the FBI and he went from this to... Yeah, oh that was... But you know what, he's like...

55:35 He was like Sarah Huckabee yesterday. He was like Sarah Huckabee playing to the audience of one. He was rehearsed, he talked about the press, he talked about the Clintons. It was too rehearsed. Trump said to him, look, I want the bad breath. I do not want nice guy. I want the fighter. They believe this by the way. They believe this is what happened. They really think this is how it went down. This is a sad thing. But that's not a judge, sorry. No, go ahead. That's not how a judge behaves. He showed us a completely different I believe that was acting and I also don't even believe that his 10 year old daughter said let's pray for that woman. Do you hear what's being said here?

56:21 Now we got, I don't even believe his child prayed for that woman. That's he's full of shit this guy. I mean this is really low. He cried so hard when he when they were when he was talking about they cried for me prayed for him. He's a crisis actor that's why. Everybody is, that's my point. Acting is not that hard and we all do it every day. I actually feel really bad for his wife watching her behind him and I think He's very selfish in all of this. He wanted to go clear his name. He made the whole situation worse. Senator Grassley, who's the chairman, he should never have put his family, the Republican Party and the country through all of this. You know what's bad is this Trumpifying of people. I mean, the fact that Trump can either find people like him or make

57:16 Lindsey Graham needs the stabilizing influence of his dead boyfriend because he is- I mean really? It's my joke. But he said, you said sugar daddy, he says he needs the stabilizing influence of his dead boyfriend. Yeah well that's a little worse. I wouldn't have used that particular phraseology. No! No. He said- Yes, they know who Sheldon is. I know who said it, it's always gonna be me who says it. You always like, if it's just near you, you're gonna get blamed for it. You're like, let me just say it way over here, I'll go way over here, I'll do the show. It's like, you won't get my politically incorrect hoodies on you, but... Well, I'm friendly with Lindsey Graham, so I didn't laugh. Alright, um, but...

58:12 But that was a performance also. Obviously acting, to what end? Is he looking for a cabinet position? Is that what that is? Well but he's also remember Lindsey Graham has always been the beta male. John McCain was the alpha, he was the sidekick and now he's lost his protective He's lost his big brother and he needs protection. That's how he looks at it. This is a gay guy, by the way, who should be offended by at least some of this. But I guess when you're all queens amongst each other, it's OK. They shall. So he's always looking for Trump to protect him now because that's how he's always been. But the way he pushed himself out there yesterday, no matter the acting, no matter the crying, no matter what.

58:55 It was a sense of entitlement. This is mine. There you go. Entitlement. This is mine. There you go. Yalies. It's such a pageant when people ask what does white privilege mean? This is a pageant of it. No, no, it can only happen with men, John. White privilege is now exclusively for old white men. It's not for women anymore. It's just for dudes. I mean, yeah. Let's be honest. Let's be honest. The one thing I think they go too far is when people say Brett Kavanaugh rapist.

59:31 We don't know what was in a 17 year old's mind. I think he definitely attacked her in that room. But these boys, they were drunk. It could have been, let's just scare her, let's roll on top of her. We don't know. To go that far is too far to me. I don't know. But he's a bad dude. But also this insane notion of the last 10 days have been hell. He's acting like Blanche DuBois, like my honor has been besmirched. My good name, my good name. What? You did say that, my good name. I mean, it's a vulture fest. Yeah. It's really, really bad.

1:00:12 I mean, if we make jokes about it, okay, it's us podcasters. You know, I will say, she reminds me of why when I quit the Democratic Party. This guy gave a million dollars to the Democratic Party, I want to point out. I quit the Democratic Party around 79 because I realized that the Democratic Party was constantly trying to kill me. They were trying to kill me in the Vietnam War. They were trying to kill me, not me specifically, at the Chicago 68, I think it was the 68 convention where they daily brought the cops out and beat up Democrats in the streets. And there's one piece of thing after that where the Democrats just try to kill me. And this is another example of it. Now the Democrats, as Democrats hate the whites.

1:00:59 And they want them gone. They want to kill them. It's just like, who would belong to this party? It's a terrible operation. It's a really bad political party. It really, it's the party that's got to go. It's the party of memes. That's all this really is. Just party of memes, throw something up, Tobit sticks. Where's Ocasio-Cortez in all this? Hasn't she weighed in yet with something? No, she probably has. There's a lot of interesting stuff. I have a clip. This is the stuff that we haven't heard. This is the Kavanaugh Democracy Now. This is stuff that they don't even use any of this stuff. In a major development, the American Bar Association has called on the Senate Judiciary Committee to halt the Kavanaugh confirmation process until an FBI investigation is completed. In a letter to the committee, the ABA said, quote, we make this request because of ABA's respect for the rule of law and due process under law.

1:01:56 The ABA had previously given Kavanaugh its highest rating of unanimous well-qualified for the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, editors of America magazine, the National Weekly, published by the Jesuits of the United States, called for Kavanaugh's nomination to be withdrawn. Georgetown Prep—that's Georgetown Preparatory School, where Kavanaugh was a student when he allegedly assaulted Blasey Ford—is a Jesuit high school. Yeah, and make no mistake about the ABA the American Bar Association. There's a link in the show notes and a show notes calm To open secrets org and you'll see the amount of money the law firms who have members representing the ACLU Gave in the 2017 2018 year to political parties is over 70% Democrat so, you know, it's like it's just more and more of these people and

1:02:54 Yeah. It's all... we're not, we're just spectators, we're just ratings, that's all we are. We're just ratings for this shit. Nothing matters. Now I do have one funny, I thought was funny, was the Feinstein back and forth with that one, the third woman, the woman pulling the train woman. That one. No, there's play play. Okay, let me just rewind. Here we go. What you're saying if I understand it is that the allegations by Dr. Ford, Ms. Ramirez, and Ms. Swetnick are wrong. That is emphatically what I'm saying. Emphatically. The Swetnick thing is a joke. That is a farce.

1:03:44 Would you like to say more about it? No. Like, show me on the doll where the bad man touched you. I don't think he laughed when he said no. No, not really. I like the second allegation, it's my favorite, that he exposed his penis in front of someone's face. I want a police sketch. Yeah, this always it we only could be so traumatized. It's not you're never gonna get one now I do have a kind of a deconstruction of the long and unfortunately I could have got I do have the whole speech but for some reason the Forces of the cosmos not allow me to clip it because every time I tried it's like seven minutes hers to hers diatribe and

1:04:31 Because every time I did it would put Audacity into not responding mode. So I gave up after rebooting the computer three times. But I did get a copy of this part of the speech from the teaser on Democracy Now! So it's got a little music bed. I believe... that there was one message in her confession, or not a confession, but her accusation. There was a strong message for women, which made me doubt her sincerity or her honesty and made me kind of swing a little bit toward the Michael Savage theory that she's some sort of a CIA spook. Because this message is the message that they want. In the seven minutes, this is a,

1:05:14 And I would like to hear what Scott Adams says about it. A subliminal little message that I thought was the real nut of what she was saying and what would be soaked in by the female audience on the Democratic side. I believed he was going to rape me. I tried to yell for help. When I did, Brett put his hand over my mouth to stop me from yelling. This is what terrified me the most and has had the most lasting impact on my life. I love the 70s porn music It's very fitting. Yeah, so what she's saying there is the real trauma was from being Essentially told to shut up woman. Mm-hmm

1:06:01 And this is the message to all the women out there. Don't shut up. Speak up, make your voices heard. This is a constant beating drum. And this little thing right in the middle of her speech that this was the most important element. Not that she was almost going to die, not that she was going to get raped because she had a bathing suit underneath. All these other details and he's locking herself in the bathroom. It's very detailed. Shut her up forcefully. It's he shut her up and this she says it right there. You can play it again. I am I'm sure play it again Yeah, I believed he was going to rape me. I tried to yell for help When I did Brett put his hand over my mouth to stop me from yelling This is what terrified me the most and has had the most lasting impact on my life Yeah

1:06:51 Yes, that is the message and it can be interpreted in multiple ways, but I think it has a strong message. Yeah now most women under those circumstances Does if you did that they'd open their mouth and bite this bite the crap out of your hand they should or lick his hand That works by the way, people go, ugh. That would be kind of creepy. But anyway, you could chomp down, but she didn't do any of that because he didn't put duct tape over her mouth or anything. He just put her hand there. She can open her mouth and bite him. Why didn't she do that? No, no, no. That was just all bullcrap because the message is women, listen to me.

1:07:30 I was traumatized because I didn't say, I couldn't, I was forced, I was forced not to speak, to scream. I couldn't scream, I couldn't do, I couldn't say anything, I couldn't do anything because he put, and that was the most traumatizing, that was it. That's number one on her list. Yes. Of the worst thing that happened to her. This is just a, this is a, a hypnotic, this is a hypnotic suggestion. Yes. Oh, there's all kinds of stuff going on. I totally agree with you. I like the, what is it now, almost a million dollars in GoFundMe money she's receiving. Yes, this is very, very good. Kavanadi, Avanadi Kavanadi. Oh look, you know, money laundering through GoFundMe has got to be just a piece of cake. Oh, it's fantastic, yeah.

1:08:19 Says Avenatti's gonna be all pissed off. We'll see him everywhere because I guess right now they're not taking his accuser into account It's just these characters the whole thing if the FBI is gonna go interview these people are also gonna indict him for lying to them Well never asked so but so this is the the final thing that I have questions about is why? Because it looked very bad during the entire hearing why wouldn't he say yeah good still an FBI that why do why wouldn't he say that I mean I I can see many reasons why but what do you think his Who? So Kavanaugh was asked multiple times. He actually claims that he did say that at the very beginning. No, bullshit. He said his answer was continuously, I'll do whatever the committee wants me to. But they were putting him on the block by saying... For one thing, it's not his decision. No, I know. It's not their decision. It's the president's decision. But he was asked point blank. Why don't you tell the president's lawyers right over there? Why don't you say I want an investigation? I mean, it was a setup for sure. But why didn't he say it?

1:09:23 Why didn't he just say, shall have an investigation seventh time? Why didn't he say it? I don't know. I'm telling you this. The whole thing is the Mark's judge got nut. I'm telling you the Mark judge guy who wrote his letter under penalty of perjury or felony. The guy who was an alcoholic and all these horrible... and he kept referring to Willa in my redacted statements. And I believe he was also one of the butt drinkers. Yes, I think the butt... I think something about the butt drinking is in the Mark Judge story and that's where the gem is, so to speak.

1:10:01 But this, it's impossible. I, sorry Mr. Kavanaugh, it's not gonna happen. You're not going through. You do not pass GO. Back to, what's the woman's name? The true intended candidate, nominee? Amy? Barrett, Barrett or Barrett? Comey Barrett, Barrett. Amy Comey Barrett, yes. Barrett. Yes, she's the intended nominee. Comey, Comey, not Comey. Comey, Comey, Comey, whatever. Yes, she's the intended nominee. Yeah, and she's a rough customer and she'll be in for 40 years. Yep. And we'll have all wasted a lot of time and churned up a lot of old issues and problems. Well, if the theory is correct with the Yaley thing and you want to put the guy's hoist his petard on a

1:10:46 yardarm Yeah, then that actually makes sense that this would happen and we don't want any more Yalies. I don't think let me look at Barrett Where does she go to school? She's probably another one Oh wouldn't surprise me and while you're looking that up the only final thing I'll say is that the problem that we have today and Let's just take the argument that the patriarchy is it's it's everyone's fault. It's the white guy's fault Okay, let's just say it's the white guy's fault What we have not yet come to terms with is, particularly with this open communication system that we have on the internet, you know, with social media and every way to communicate, we are all capable of really horrible thoughts and really horrible things. And we're seeing that now.

1:11:34 and it's from, it's everybody, it's male, female, gay, straight, whatever, everybody has these horrible traits that seem to come out when we're in an anonymous mode and we can say whatever we want without, you know, fear of repercussion and we have a lot more learning to do about the human psyche. Well, the social network doesn't know, she graduated from Notre Dame. Now, well there you go. Notre Dame Law School. There you go. Finally. A Notre Damer. Instead of a damn Yalie. Yeah. I think Don went to Yale too. They all do. What is that? It's like Eden in the UK.

1:12:15 It's very, it's just a thing that people go to and they come out as part of the ruling elite. So what are we going to look for this week? I think we should look for definitely no limitation of a week. There's no way that's going to happen. Well, I don't think we're going to get anything except just fallout and a lot of, again, lack of focus by the Democrats. Just a lot of hand wringing and hopefully there'll be other kinds of news we can cover before Thursday. Oh please, well we do have some other things to talk about but first... I would like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John C! You put the C in C-SPAN! Dvorak! In the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry, also in the morning to ships that's a C and the boots in the ground and the feet in the air and the subs in the water. And in the morning... Also to the games and knights out there. In the morning to the troll room. Hello trolls, no agenda. Stream.com is...

1:13:10 Where am I? I'm doing the wrong thing here. Noahjendestream.com is where you can always find the trolls when we do our show twice a week on Sundays and Thursdays. Some just see it as a Thursday all the time. It is quite fascinating that way. Also, I'd like to say in the morning to our artists for episode 1072, the title of that was Adultism is Real. And the artwork was the skull and bones 5g brought to us by Mike Riley was just a nice piece There were a number of things that we looked at there was some funny things It was a horrible one with you know me with darts in my shins. Yeah, there was a

1:13:48 Interesting artwork, but not quite what we want. It was funny, but it was too gruesome to use. It was a little too gruesome. And by the way, we should remind artists, pictures of the two of us, either one of us, because of the early days of the artwork, are verboten. We don't use my picture or Adam's picture in the artwork. It has to be something about the show, not about us. Yes. Yeah, but all the submissions are always fantastic and we got a couple of guys on the roll right now It would be good to see some gals in there. Where's Illuminati? Yeah, yeah, she kind of dropped. She said maybe she's gone overboard and she's all in with the No, that's possible You like the wood the note you read it's like she's hanging on for dear life I'm telling you the illness is on all sides right now and you and this is a

1:14:36 I'm gonna call it pachemic today. This is the psychological warfare and it's being perpetrated upon the American people and the world to a certain degree at the deepest psychological levels of abuse and not just abuse sexual abuse But like you said being told to shut up putting it, you know stifling Power structures all of this and this is being just ripped wide open in front of us without any regard for how the human psyche Reacts to this is very bad Very bad. Yeah, nobody cares. I do, deeply. Yeah, you do. I do, deeply. Probably less than you. I got nothing better to do than care all day.

1:24:30 What which I was unaware of yeah, you think you'd be aware of it. It was actually a anything worth Worthwhile yeah, it was someone somehow named this international podcast day and There's lots of ads in my email for cool rigs. Hey, it's international podcast day by our mixer I also wanted to thank, I came up with a fantastic solution for the just debilitating allergies I've been suffering from of late which may be ragweed and this is a new one for me. It's not mold but I think the ragweed. One of the worst. Yeah it's pretty bad and and I learned there is a cure and I'm not sure it and I've only had one

1:25:15 Version of this cure, so I'm not sure we'll work with anything else off the shelf But after our previous show on Thursday of course it's always Thursday Do you recall what I had to drink? I know I don't I had a reasonable glass of Dame Elise Garling's limoncello. Oh right right you were bragging about how great the cleared everything up. I'm cured what the limoncello is a cure for these allergies and I was feeling really run down. Did you have any of the other older batches available? No, no, I only know those things don't last in this household. No. So I wonder if it's just a peculiarity of this current batch. I don't it could be it could be but I drank probably about half a bottle and man I feel so much better.

1:26:07 I'm not kidding. You drank a half a bottle? Yeah. That's what... you sound like Tina. I feel better too. You sound like Tina. You had a little bit? Yeah. I'm chipper, I'm up, I'm awake. It's a small bottle. It's not a, you know, it's a quarter liter or something. About 375 mils. Yeah. So it wasn't all that much. It was a hefty glass, but it really works. Huh? Yeah for the ragweed. It might work for everything. Maybe it's just an anti-inflammatory of some sort. I mean lemons are a miracle product. Oh really? I'd never heard of lemons as a miracle product. Well, I mean, yeah, well then when people use lemon juice and honey and whiskey and hot water and they use that for when you have a cold. Yeah, true. And lemons in there and lemons got something to do with it.

1:27:03 Maybe I should try boofing the limoncello. I wonder if it was just a lemon itself. Maybe you started eating it. Yeah, boofing it. Just boof a lemon. Stick a lemon up your... Last night a lot of noise across the way south of the river here in downtown Austin It was by the way yesterday morning. It was torrential rain, and we saw they were setting something up on the on the lawn of the the long Center as it's known here, which I think the Dells built most of and

1:27:39 and it was a big concert and we were looking at what concert is coming. We can't figure out what concert. And then we found out as it went on until about 1130. Yeah, Chris, Willie Nelson is on stage right now. It's quite loud out here. There's lots of people here. An early estimate said over 10,000 people here in auditorium shores to hear Willie Nelson, Beto O'Rourke and Leon Bridges. Leon Bridges took the stage a little after 930. Beto O'Rourke immediately after that to talk to people and kind of get them the whole reason they're here, have a rally. But we talked to people earlier about why they came here and there were a couple different answers. Really important to support Beethoven. We came to see Willie. He's kind of a bonus. Yeah, for sure. Tucked up against the Austin skyline, thousands of people packed Vic Mathias Shores Saturday night for music by Willie Nelson and politics by Beto O'Rourke.

1:28:29 Yeah, he's got votes from me and my wife, both. He's always been supportive of El Paso as our representative in the city. The candidate for U.S. Senate running against Ted Cruz. Cruz in the national spotlight this week, sitting on the Senate Judiciary Committee that heard powerful testimony from both Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford. The president has ordered a week-long FBI investigation into the sexual assault claims against Kavanaugh. Meanwhile, Cruz canceling his rally in Round Rock Saturday, focusing on the action on Capitol Hill. Yeah, Cruz making it look bad here right now. And Beto, Beto Guido. That's there. The rest of Texas. No, it's Austin, of course. But it was quite the turnout. It was quite the turnout. The Keeper and I... Did they all wear their badges?

1:29:16 Oh man, there's Beto curtains. I mean, I can see a lot of it. We actually tried to get some pictures for you, but they didn't turn out. I don't have a proper zoom lens on anything. There's people with Beto in their window and it's every car driving around here. Can you get me some Beto posters? There must be a Beto headquarters. They must have some posters. I'd love to have a Beto poster. A Beto poster? Okay, I'll ask the former New York banker. Yeah. He's all about the Beto. He thinks Beto is not gonna make a chance, doesn't have a chance, but I don't know. I don't either. Yeah, well you say that because you're right in the bubble. Yeah, no, I understand I'm in the bubble. I understand. But I've just learned, you know, crazy things can happen. You don't know. Well, he's igniting. People are on fire, John. He's igniting the base. Igniting the base. Everyone's on fire. Beto. What's his name again?

1:30:11 Beto? Francis, Robert Francis. Who's Robert Francis? Beto! That's his real name. That's his nickname is Beto. Yeah, I used to give him his Beto. He's whiter than you. Beto makes him sound kind of Latino. Yeah, well, why are they electing him? They should be running a woman. I don't get it. Well, he looks a bit like that too. Yeah, he has a womanly character. He's a little feminine, yeah. So, so I got some clips from... Bannon came on the Bill Maher show. What?! Hey, you missed it. Banyan? Yeah, Banyan. Nice. All right. So there's a few clips. I got four clips actually. I thought they were interesting. I'm going to skip the one that's probably the weak clip and use the shorter ones. But let's start with the opening so we can get an idea of what the setting was where he gets introduced.

1:31:01 But first up, look, I know you're not a fan of this guy, but be nice. He is one of the most influential person around today. He is the former White House Chief Strategist for President Trump. Steve Bannon is over here. Hey, that's not so bad. Thank you, Steve. All right, Steve. Well, it took a lot of prepping to get the audience to be that nice to you. But I'm going to say to you what I always say to conservatives when they come here. First of all, thank you. I appreciate it and it says volumes why the Republicans are in power and we have none. Hillary Clinton never came here. Maybe she'd be president if she were more confident. Big time. Yeah, so and I know that you know you had a little

1:31:48 Event there at the New Yorker they had a festival in fact I want to read Malcolm Gladwell's quote because they were going to interview you and then you were disinvited I've been disinvited many times by the way. It's a good club And Malcolm Gladwell said call me old-fashioned But I would have thought that the point of a festival of ideas was to expose the audience to ideas Question Malcolm Gladwell, I don't think everyone knows who he is I think most, a lot of people know who he is. He's the guy with the big afro, he's kind of a white guy with big afro hair, mixed race. And he wrote the Tipping Point book and a bunch of other little books that were very popular. I think he had like five or six of these million dollar bestsellers and he... Was he behind Freakonomics? Was that him too? Freakonomics?

1:32:35 I don't know if it was, I don't think so. But no, I don't think so, because he never had these kind of titles. His titles were kind of phrases that were in the public domain. They weren't made up stuff, I don't think. Look at my boy doing it. Yeah, I'm doing it right now. He is kind of an intellectual wannabe podcaster. He's the one we played a clip about, he's starting a podcast network. Yeah, work you can't yeah, and he's a network. He can't monetize He and he's a natural not a podcast, but he's a natural PBS guy because his whole his whole Everything sounds like this Okay, yes here on the podcast is very Trump sucks if you only invite your friends over it's called a dinner party I

1:33:21 What are your thoughts on that? Well, they chased me for, you know, David Remnick chased me for a year to be on his podcast and he came to me and said, hey, we'd be honored if you were in this festival of ideas. I said, fine, I don't want compensation, but I like going into hostile audiences with tough interviewers. I mean, you know, I do very little conservative media now. I do CNN, BBC. You know, the economists, I'd go to the toughest places, toughest interviewers and say, hey, no holds barred, hostile audiences, let's get it on. And again, that's why the Republicans are in power. So let me ask you about... I think it does sharpen, it sharpens the blade. It does. Let me pick your brain about the Democrats, because you're a strategist and you got your boy elected, but no one said that could happen. Donald Trump got himself elected.

1:34:03 I just showed up and kind of read a line. I don't want to get on this but first you were crazy about Sarah Palin and then you were crazy about Donald Trump. I think you look for morons who are empty vessels that you could put more ideas. Every single person in the administration has called him an idiot. Okay, that's kind of the way this goes. Okay, we're going that way, right? We're going that way. Now, it kind of deteriorates and it kind of, you know, Bannon's really good at these interviews. He just kind of like puts up with it. He says, no, he's really smart. He says some positive things about Trump trying to get back on track.

1:34:51 Now, a couple of things that happened. One, and I'm going to skip to clip two, I'm going to go to three. One is Bannon starts to practice what I like to call, and I think people should always be aware of this. I recognized this on an early show years ago when I think when When Obama was running for re-election, which was in our recent history, and people kept saying, oh, they should run Condi Rice. 2012. And it was guys like, yeah, 2012, it was guys like, I can't remember, these experts, and they're Democrats, and they're experts, so well, we'd have the most trouble if we had to run against Condi Rice.

1:35:34 And I'm thinking, what? What maniac thinks this? Nobody thinks Condi Price. And she was sitting behind Kavanaugh just pointing something out. That wasn't her. No? No. Anyway, the point is that if you're on one side of the fence and you start recommending people on the other side of the fence, it's a red herring. It's bullcrap. And so he starts doing it and Mara's just, you know, lapping it up. What do you think about all these people? And then I say Michael Avenatti, I saw that tweet he wrote the other day and I said, he could be the Trump.

1:36:11 of 2020, the guy who's the outsider who like blows through the regular politician because he looks different and he's got balls. If Bernie Sanders had an ounce of Avenatti's fearlessness, he would have been the Democratic nominee and we would have had a much tougher time. Bernie doesn't have fearlessness? Not like Avenatti. Avenatti, and I've not done any due diligence on this guy. He's got a fearlessness and he's a fighter. I think he'll go through a lot of this field if he decides to stick with it like a cyst through grass. Now, I don't happen to think a professional politician, because I think we're in a new age, I don't think a professional politician is going to be there at the end of the day. I've always said it's going to be someone like Oprah or an Avenetti or somebody that's more media savvy is going to be there. But I think one thing people should... You think that's good?

1:36:54 I think it's just the reality of today. I think you need to know how to handle mass... You need to be a star first. If I can say one thing, I do think this campaign after November 6th, which is really Trump's first re-elect, if we lose the House he's going to get impeached. This is a referendum on him. If we get past that, if we get... If we get past that, I think in 2020 you're going to have Trump on the right, a politician, maybe a Kamala Harris or somebody on the left. And I think you'll have a Bloomberg or Romney or somebody in the center. I think it'll be a three-way race. I hope so. Because if it's a three-way, they will take away enough votes to make sure Donald Trump never wins again. But... All right. This is insanity. It's not even funny. And Bannon is just playing him.

1:37:44 Yeah, he's throwing these names out Kamala Harris another unelectable person I Like it when she rattles her pearls. That's the best Thing is was Was Mar being kind of dumb and so they finish it off with Mar P. No, it's not being dumb. He's all he's doing is he's using Banyan as a crutch to you know show Where he stands over and over again. It's boring. It's not funny. Well, it's the boringest parts about to come then because and I didn't notice that this was going on but apparently Banyan has and this is where Mar is actually unhinged. I would love to know what advice you would give

1:38:28 to Donald Trump if he didn't leave even after he lost because I saw Hillary Clinton you're obsessed with this I am obsessed with this you're obsessed with it why do you think he's not going to leave? wait a second just because I know he's having the time of his life because he's an insane narcissist who talks all the time about how we should have a president for life let me read what Hillary said because you're right people have been saying I'm an alarmist and I'm crazy because I keep saying he's not going to leave even if he loses now crooked Hillary is saying I'm not She said this, she said, you remember the moment in the third debate when Trump refused to pledge that he would accept the result of the vote? That's where it started. She said, it took my breath away. Even the moderator from Fox News couldn't believe it. I felt the foundations of our democracy tremble. Imagine if Trump does the same thing in 2020.

1:39:17 What happens then? This is the reason she's not president. I mean, this is the kind of gobbledygook. So you're saying he will go if he loses? Oh, I don't think it's a question. Absolutely. I mean, it's not even, I mean, that's absurd. So there's, I guess, a large portion of the Dimension B folk that actually believe this. But I remember this, and when you talk about, well, everything's worse than it ever was, this was the same story That was going around when Nixon was president. I very clearly remember Nixon was going to stay in forever. There was a president for life. Sure. Yeah. President for life. You wouldn't be able to get him out. Happened again with Bush. I used to put it on my blog all the time. I had a special, a little ad that said,

1:40:03 vote Bush third term, he's staying in, he's getting in for a third term, change the laws. It was... You are of course absolutely correct. It was satirical. You're right and the Hitler meme has been laid on certainly Bush, pretty sure Nixon as well. racist, xenophobe. The difference is the internet. That's the difference. You know, just what, you know, we would have whatever mockingbird would come on in the six o'clock news like, okay, I guess that's what's happening today. And now we're seeing, you know, the sausage being not just made, but we're seeing the slaughter of the beast that goes into the sausage. It's all open. We see it now.

1:40:44 So it comes across as, wow, it's unprecedented. But I think it's pretty much business as usual. And it's the same damn people who are now in their mid-80s. Well, it's pathetic. Yeah. What's Trump gonna stay in? How's that gonna work? I don't know. How's it gonna work? What does he do? He just stays in the hate? Yeah, that is stupid. No, I'm gonna stay here because I'm gonna stay here. Come on, it's not the way that things operate. Anyway, I have a kind of a weird off-the-wall clip that's worth playing if you don't mind changing the subject a little bit. Lindsay Lohan.

1:41:28 It was another freaky Friday for Lindsay Lohan last night. The actress live-streamed a bizarre confrontation with what appeared to be a homeless family that Lohan said were Syrian refugees. Tell me your story so I can help you. The Mean Girls star starts out playing nice. Want to come with me? Come with me. Let me take care of you guys. Speaking a strange accent, salted with some kind of foreign language. When the parents refuse, the parent trap star pursues. I won't leave until I take you. When she tries to grab the kids,

1:42:07 Lohan gets a hit. The incident lit up social media, Twitter users calling her crazy and worrying about her mental health. The star didn't respond to requests for comment. Lohan has a history of activism on behalf of Syrian refugees visiting Turkey last year. There's no one that's actually gone there. Even opening a pro-refugee nightclub in Athens called Lohan. But the 32-year-old star's well-known history of alcohol and drug abuse has last night's video Fueling speculation that that history may not be entirely behind her. The whole world is seeing this right now. Matt Bradley, NBC News. Yeah, this got a lot of play. The video was kind of dark and you couldn't see much. Lindsay Lohan, I'm surprised you brought this to the show.

1:42:58 Well, I couldn't help it because of besides the fact that she's talking in kind of pigeon English thinking that she'd be understood. Insala, insala. She's throwing some Arabic out there. She's trying to say, oh no, you come with me, come with me. It doesn't mean that if you speak in some sort of weird accent, they're going to pay any more attention than if you did. It was, it was, that was ludicrous. But the other thing that got me about this clip and why I brought it to the show was How does this woman, what's going on with this woman that she can afford to open a nightclub in Athens, Greece in the first place? Does she have any money? I don't think so. No, no, no. What is going on with this nightclub? Maybe this is a native ad for the nightclub?

1:43:42 I found this to be a very peculiar presentation. I think it was on NBC. Yeah, well when you get to a Lindsay Lohan type situation, I think that you know, you get some guys who say, hey we'll give you an apartment and you'll be here and you'll be our draw for the club. We're going to open up a new club. And that's what that seems like. And so that means that she's living in Greece for a little bit or she's going back and forth. No, this is a... the whole Lindsay Lohan story is sad. But it does morph me to two other things. One about Greece. The other one, I just found out last night by coincidence. My cousin sent me, it was a YouTube video and it was an audio interview of my grandfather.

1:44:27 Renwick Eugene Curry, who was a pillar of society in the North Castle area, which is Armonk. He was a part of a lot of things. He's got roads named after him. At a certain point he said, you know when we were in our 80s then Marjorie, that's my grandmother, we traveled around and we went to see all the kids and you know of course I was in the Netherlands and Don was in South Korea and and then he said and we even had time to go find Marjorie's family in Syria. I'm like what? I didn't know this. My grandmother comes

1:45:04 Well her father was lived in Latakia for many many years, and I'm not sure if she was born there or not But I have a Syrian connection in my family which has been very interesting I've been just going and going down these rabbit holes trying to figure out who's connected to what and apparently my great-grandfather is buried in Turkey somewhere he was a doctor yeah, so I've got this connection to Syria which I didn't know about and Now I don't know if it's Syrian blood or if that he was a missionary or I'm still trying to figure that out but Anyway, that was just a personal thing that of interest. Well, you can figure it out eventually. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well ancestry.com. That's where I've been looking ancestry.com now the other part better sites than that. I mean, there's some genealogists I'm sure in our audience that can help you on this. Yeah, that would be great. I mean, it's that was mind-boggling what I have a Syrian connection and you know my the Curry side the family's been interesting, of course with John Stewart Curry the painter and Never really thought about my grandmother

1:46:08 There you go, so you got some John Stewart Stewart Curry paintings. Yes, I have No, I have two pieces by John Stewart Curry I have a charcoal drawing of one of his famous elephants in the circus tent which is kind of unique because it's a good and I have a charcoal drawing that he drew of my dad as a boy, so you have sketches sketches yes, yeah, yeah The collector doesn't sound so interested. Mmm okay better hold on to that blue Apple laptop that's gonna be more valuable than the John Stewart Curry. There's your exit right there, that old Apple. It's gonna take a while. Yeah there is something going on in Greece at the moment and we have

1:46:55 discussed this throughout the years. This is the Macedonia problem. Who gets to use the name Macedonia? This has been going on for a long time. Yeah, it's come into a head once again, but this time The Russians are involved. There are new fears about possible Russian interference. This term surrounding a critical referendum in Macedonia this weekend which may determine whether the country integrates into the EU and NATO. The referendum is asking Macedonia's 2 million people to approve a plan to change their country's official name to the Republic of North Macedonia. Doing so would distinguish it from the neighboring region in Greece

1:46:08 There you go, so you got some John Stewart Stewart Curry paintings. Yes, I have No, I have two pieces by John Stewart Curry I have a charcoal drawing of one of his famous elephants in the circus tent which is kind of unique because it's a good and I have a charcoal drawing that he drew of my dad as a boy, so you have sketches sketches yes, yeah, yeah The collector doesn't sound so interested. Mmm okay better hold on to that blue Apple laptop that's gonna be more valuable than the John Stewart Curry. There's your exit right there, that old Apple. It's gonna take a while. Yeah there is something going on in Greece at the moment and we have

1:46:55 discussed this throughout the years. This is the Macedonia problem. Who gets to use the name Macedonia? This has been going on for a long time. Yeah, it's come into a head once again, but this time The Russians are involved. There are new fears about possible Russian interference. This term surrounding a critical referendum in Macedonia this weekend which may determine whether the country integrates into the EU and NATO. The referendum is asking Macedonia's 2 million people to approve a plan to change their country's official name to the Republic of North Macedonia. Doing so would distinguish it from the neighboring region in Greece

1:47:35 and end a name dispute that's been blocking Macedonia's route to EU and NATO membership. As our Europe correspondent Damian Grammaticus now reports, there are concerns that Russia may be working to undermine Macedonia's shift towards the West. Macedonia, Macedonia they chant. This is a tiny little rally, less than a hundred people in the chilly evening on the edge of the capital Skopje and behind them a big banner, Macedonia boikotira. Taking the stage, Janko Bacev, he's the leader of this boycott campaign. Not a high profile figure here, but the man who is trying to persuade Macedonians not to vote on Sunday. Among supporters on his campaign bus, Janko Bacev told us NATO wants to erase Macedonia.

1:48:19 He's openly hostile to the West. Our future is Russian and Euro-Asian. Countries like China, Russia, not with the Europeans. No, no, no. The anti-campaign is focusing on calling for a boycott because if turnout is less than 50% the vote will not be valid. So the Prime Minister, Zoran Zayev, is urging people to vote. Mrs. Ayo tells the crowd Macedonia will be better off integrated into the EU. He's done a deal with Greece. If he gets his country's name changed to North Macedonia, Greece will lift its veto on it joining the EU and NATO. Somehow I don't think it's just about the name. There's got to be more to it. The crowds seem enthusiastic. It would be good for Macedonia. Better than now, I'm sure. It doesn't matter whatever they call us.

1:49:10 The significance of the other things is very important. But there are concerns Russia, which has long been influential in this part of the world, has not just interfered on the streets, but maybe doing so online too. Accounts, both real and fake, but they are more fake than real, is growing and growing and growing day by day. A team of investigative journalists led by Saska Svetkovska says thousands of new Twitter accounts are being created every day. The fear is these are Russian controlled networks being readied not to influence the vote now, but to stir up trouble soon. What the Russians are trying to achieve in the region, that's not conquering the Western Balkans or Macedonia. They just keep maintaining the stability. That's the point. So, so the fantasy of these people is just fabulous. Such an imagination. The Russian bots. They're loaded, they're ready, they're just waiting to attack.

1:50:08 That's how it sounds. The bots are gonna thwart the name change. They're making big fuss over these bots. Yeah. Bots. But it's a referendum. The Russian bots, of course, are gonna be brought in before the referendum even takes place so we can blame something on them somewhere. Brexit is still teetering. We have Bojo waiting in the wings and this other jamoke, Johnson, Hunt. What's his name? Jeremy Hunt, I think? Yes, Jeremy Hunt, another candidate who's... Theresa May is toast. I think she's out. I think that something's going to happen, boom. She never handled the job well. No. And what is Boris Johnson, his idea is a super Canada? We can have the same deal Canada has with you. Super Canada. It's like he doesn't... Johnson doesn't want these jobs. He likes to be kind of a goofball. I don't think he really wants to run the place. He might be actually pretty good if he did.

1:51:11 You know, you mentioned something else about a guy who doesn't want his job and that kind of came to fruition. It started on a show day, of course. Neither celebrity status nor reputation as a technological innovator provide an exemption from the federal securities laws. The SEC's complaint, which was filed earlier today in federal district court in the Southern District of New York, seeks a finding that Musk committed securities fraud and An injunction prohibiting him from doing so in the future. Civil penalties, disgorgement of any ill-gotten gains. And a bar prohibiting Musk from serving as an officer or director of a public company in the future. We allege that Musk's statements were false and misleading because they lacked any basis in fact. So you have asserted that you really think Musk wants to get kicked out of the job.

1:51:58 And he got really close, but not quite. Yeah, he didn't get quite kicked out. Here we go. He filed a civil lawsuit on Thursday that accused Tesla CEO Elon Musk of security fraud, saying he made false misleading statements about a plan to take Tesla private. It all goes back to a series of tweets Musk sent out on August 7th, saying that he arranged a deal to take Tesla private and had secured that funding. He claims this would have resulted in the company's value worth $420 per share, which at the time was a significant jump to that price, which was at $379. The SEC claims that Musk misled shareholders and the public with his statements and that no deal or funding was secured or confirmed at the time.

1:52:42 Now, originally the SEC wanted Musk to settle, but his lawyer said they would fight the charges. That was on Thursday, which is when the SEC filed the actual civil lawsuit. And it seems Musk and his team had a change of heart and decided to go forward with the settlement. And like you said, he personally will have to pay $20 million, and Tesla as a company will have to pay an additional $20 million fine. And Musk and Tesla reached their settlement without admitting or denying the SEC allegations. So he never actually said he did anything, he's just now paying the fines according to the settlement.

1:53:17 Tesla must hire two independent chairmen though to oversee the company and monitor the billionaire's public communication more closely. That was also part of the settlement. So that's going to be the big change. I don't think Musk will have as much in terms of the decision-making process going forward. So they will have independent chairmen coming in to oversee that. Well, I can't wait to see that report. Well, that's all I could get no I was still I mean she her reporting was lame because she's still gonna be the CEO my that's what that's yeah That's what she's saying. What did she says? She says is gonna have no say well bullcrap. No, no, no, no

1:53:56 What she's saying is that when you have two, the board structure has changed. The balance of the board and the business structure. No, I understand that he's been kicked off the board and he can't be an officer. There's two additional board members who are coming in. Yeah, and they're supposed to keep an eye on him. Yeah, that's how you lose control. But he's so insightful in his shots, come on. Now here's what, I got two feedbacks on this, two different perspectives. One guy, one of our producers says, you know, that thinks it's like rule 1033, I asked him, where's this from, the IRS code, I didn't know where it came from. And he mentioned that the guy who sold the San Diego Chargers to Steve Ballmer, not the Chargers, the San Diego Clippers, which became the Los Angeles Clippers, to Steve Ballmer, the basketball team,

1:54:43 I was told by the producer that he didn't have to pay any capital gains tax because if you're forced... to sell your shares by the government or by some organization or whatever, it seems to be the NBA that forced him to do it. Under those circumstances, there's some circumstances where you have to pay capital gains because you didn't want to do it. And so you get away scot-free and he says, he thinks that Musk was angling for this. Oh, so he can, because, oh. So he doesn't have to pay taxes? Wait a minute, does this work with any industry?

1:55:22 If you're forced, again, I'm only saying what our producer told us. I have never looked into it because I don't know the circumstance where it could possibly happen. But apparently if you're forced by whatever, the government or by some, I have no idea why it would be the NBA, but if you're forced to sell, you don't want to sell, you're forced, this is a forced sale. I think this happens maybe with public domain where you're forced to sell your real estate. Imminent domain? Yeah, eminent domain. What do I mean? Eminent domain. Yeah. Yeah. Eminent domain. All I know is that, and it seems like, wow, that's a great scheme if that was it, but apparently it didn't work out. And now it's the second opinion I got from somebody says, oh, this was Trump or Trump. It's funny I'd say that. This is Musk trying to sandbag his shares so he could buy more.

1:56:18 Now, I'm not buying that. I'm not buying that under any circumstances because it just seems like all bad news ahead. But yeah. So that's that's well it does look like the the January 200 that the former New York banker called is on his way. Yeah, interesting to see what happens tomorrow. Yeah, so what are they at today? What did they do Friday? Oh, it took a big hit. I know I don't know if this was bad as it could have been. Let me see. Musk is a good showman. He's now that he's stuck with the stock. Mm hmm. You know, he won't be able to dump it without getting caught or without having to dump it at market prices and have to pay taxes on it. Yeah.

1:56:59 He's gonna step it up, you watch. Yeah, so it's down like 14-15%. It's like, oh, we're gonna get some hire a new chairman to keep an eye on him and make him and check his tweets. Yeah, really? Yeah, that's gonna work. You're gonna take his phone away? You're gonna take his account away? I don't think so. I picked up a clip from Democracy Now that was one of these foreboding clips. It just kind of talks about the immigration, one of the immigration crisis, a hunger strike going on. But in there, there's what I consider a little Easter egg, a little long-term thing we're gonna have to start thinking about. See if you can catch, well, nevermind, it's in the title of the clip.

1:57:48 People without borders. The fathers on strike had been previously separated from their children at the U.S.-Mexico border under the Trump administration's zero-tolerance crackdown. Now reunited behind bars, fathers and their children are demanding immediate freedom. This is one of the hunger strikers speaking by phone with the group People Without Borders. Today we started a hunger strike. Our children are with us. They are not attending their schools, nor are they eating. We are afraid that ICE is going to retaliate against us and separate us again, as they separated 16 parents on August 15th. I don't understand the laws of this country. They are unjust. The majority of the parents who are reunited were freed.

1:58:44 The hunger strike at Karnes Detention Center comes as new numbers released by the Trump administration show at least 136 migrant children separated from their parents at the border are still in U.S. government custody, more than two months after a deadline set by a federal judge for reunification. Three of the children are under the age of five. Oh, ripped from their mother's arms by Trump. But does people without borders, what is that? Yeah, how now that how does that is that maybe that's a real organization? Then the guys are the right wingers the sovereign nation people I'm a sovereign citizen. Is that people without borders to like it? Well people without borders org since you mentioned it I'm taking a look Let's see serving the world in Washington DC. This is people that borders was organized in Washington DC in 1997 So this is a trademark name

1:59:44 Serve one another people without borders. I don't know is it maybe this is a new group that is going to resurge I know it I don't know then all I can say is that I'm gonna ask the rhetorical question How is this people how is a person without borders any different than a sovereign citizen which everybody seems to hate? But the difference is one's a left-winger was a right-winger. Yeah, you're talking to the wind my friend. I Good luck with that. What? I've been tracking the Ebola scare. Ebola? Yeah, and I think there's something new that we should look out for. Whenever we see this Ebola stuff, I'm always cautious. We talked about it in the last show. It's like, hey, in the Congo, really, you got to send troops now to the Congo?

2:00:36 But we also need a little more scary virus. I don't think Ebola does it anymore. And the Daily Mail has done it. Yes. Nearly 40 years since we defeated smallpox, scientists fear a new deadly plague could strike at any moment. Already three cases in the UK alone of... Monkey pox monkey pox. Yeah, that's an old one monkey pox are back, baby Yeah, they showed the picture they got pictures of people with monkey pox. He's got like you have these huge Scabby looking things on your hair, but you're no and then they always show the the monkey with his mouth open and his fangs out like the crazy monkey and

2:01:23 Those crazy monkeys. Three people already struck down with deadly monkey pox virus. I think, you know, we've had bird flu, we had swine flu, I think monkey pox... Zika. Zika. Zika's not a good name. Monkey pox. Zika, Zika, Zika. Monkey pox. Now there's a name. Like, you don't want monkey pox. You don't want monkey nothing. Monkey pox does not sound like a good thing to have. No. It doesn't. A lot of test marketing going on. This is exactly what it is. And indeed, we do have a few people to thank for show 1073. And we start with HTM

Hey just on this 81 stuff and the 5G I did get a note that I was supposed to pass on to you from Eduardo. Yeah regarding 5g because that was part of what happened. There's your 5g article and it was not positive So it got unceremoniously removed Eduardo says, I know a person that works at Nokia in Finland. He's participating in a lot of seminars and workshops around the world to define the 5G standards. He, as a technical person, complains that there are many big players defining the standards. All of them are pushing to get their patents and standards into the spec. There is a case of conflicting patents, of course.

2:05:51 As you mentioned the last podcast some investigation is in order also NTD DoCoMo the Japanese telco is pushing a lot to get the system up and running during the Olympic Games in Tokyo. See I think that's probably true. Is there truly a 5G defined standard yet or is this all this is the political stuff that goes down? I think it's all a bunch of bullcrap. Me too. It's just 4G with a 5 logo. Now they do want to put these little transmitters on every telephone pole and light stanchion there is. Yeah. So you can drive around and you're gonna get to... It's nonsense. It's almost impossible. They can track you better. They can track you better. But the 5G thing can, you know, it won't even penetrate your house.

It's, I think she's on the list, just make sure. I'll make this short. First, can I ask for a de-douching? You've been de-douched. I haven't sent in donations since March. I plan on going on a subscription to prevent this. Second, may I be added to the birthday list? My birthday was September 18th. I turned 30. Love the show. Now who is this? Amanda?

2:11:13 Michael Shambo and Topeka, Kansas. Marilyn Osborne, Marilyn F. Osborne in Cincinnati. Shane Sizemore and Tara Hote, Indiana. And last on the list, a big drop off after that is Sir Brian Watson in Raleigh, North Carolina. I want to thank everybody for helping us produce show 1073. And I'd like everyone who's listening to the show to recognize the topics of conversation that take place on the No Agenda Show that could not take place anywhere else. And you actually had a, I thought it was a nice piece that you wrote in the newsletter about the lack of commercial

2:11:53 involvement in our program and how it is the only way that you can have an honest conversation. Does it mean we're right? No, not necessarily. Does it mean that we can find out things? Yeah, you know, when you bring things... But we can talk about butt drinking that nobody has talked about in the mainstream media. That's right, boofing a lemon, you don't get that anywhere else. No. And quite honestly from the mainstream I truly thought it was just fart jokes. I didn't realize that it was about, you know, kegging, upside down kegging, whatever it's called. Okay, that's just a minor thing, but also... Well, it's more than minor when it's just like... It's glossed out. It's totally inaccurate the way it was presented. So those are some things, but also the relationship between men and women and calling out people who do really, who say really horrible things and create a very toxic environment. So we're helping people, I know that. That's why I still show up.

2:12:48 So I really appreciate everyone else showing up to support the show financially, but we have so many people working. We got the boys at the back end keeping everything running. We've got our artists, we got our jingle makers. There's a lot going on in the show, and if you're a part of this, I think you have made a very smart choice for your future, because it will keep you sane to some degree. It's certainly working for me. I think if I was not doing this show, I would have been a goner. Well, I think you're ditching Facebook probably helps too. Yeah, that did help. We will do another one of these programs on Thursday. Well, you're in Austin, so you're in the bubble. I'm in the bubble. It's very dangerous here.

2:13:32 Yeah, yeah more about that in a moment because it truly turns out to truly be very dangerous I also want to thank everyone who came in under $50. We don't mention those for brevity in the program But also people like to come in under 50 because they know they won't be mentioned for reasons of anonymity And we have a lot of people on our subscription. So thank you again very much another show on Thursday Please remember to support us at Devorah org Slash and a some karma's by request jobs jobs jobs and jobs. Let's vote for job Karma

The police arrested seven suspected terrorists in a plot to attack at a large event. This is not small what they were doing. These guys had, I think they had like a thousand kilos of fertilizer, all the groovy stuff you do. No, a hundred kilograms, I'm sorry, of fertilizer. They were looking at possibly creating a car bomb.

2:16:42 The main perpetrator is apparently from Iraq, but the seven men range in age from 21 to 34 years of age. And they said that they were looking to blow a lot of people up at a large event. Sadly, they were all kind of near Rotterdam, which is where my daughter is, which is not very cool. Well, they got caught. Yes, luckily they got caught, but the Dutch are quick to say, you know, we're not really watching everybody. This is the officials, I swear to God. Let me see who said this, what Jamoak said this. I'm not kidding, it's the headline. Hey, we thwarted this attack, but we're not watching everybody. Who the hell said that? Let me see, was that the... What's the point of saying that?

2:17:30 I don't know. So they can say, well, we said we weren't, you know, so if something bad happens, they can say, well, we told you. Yeah. Well, there's all kinds of, the Netherlands is not prepared for this. You know, I mean, the cops were on strike a couple of weeks ago. Well, we're just on strike. We don't like it. You know, there's no cops on the street. Eh, we're done. I really hope that this is just a one-off thing and they can stay on top of it. Stuff starts popping off in Holland man. It's gonna be real problematic. It's already such a tin You know that what do you call it? Tender box in your box. Yes tinder box Yeah I do have a quick OTG report Okay, I'm final. Yeah final phone that I tested now as you know I was really liking the kiosk era the the dura XE

2:18:27 The two things I didn't like about it were it really takes a long... for me, still not having a QWERTY keyboard is a challenge. I do need a little... I'd really like a QWERTY keyboard. It can be, of course, a physical one. But if you're... and the battery life was just shit on that thing. I don't know what was up with that. But the battery life was just, you know... You said you took it apart and you saw a little bitty dinky battery. That's the problem. That's the problem. The battery's not big enough. There is a phone and I had got it. I got it for $39 and I think this is a real winner now again I'm sticking with my Nokia e71 because of the QWERTY keyboard But if you can get beyond that and you don't have to send all that much and you shouldn't it's the whole point of going OTG the Alcatel Flip phone go which yes phone yes, which was sold under the cricket brand for AT&T which is a

2:19:23 It's kind of, and you should look this phone up John, it's kind of, you know, the cricket brand is like for poor people. You get this phone it says cricket on it which kind of says hey, I'm a schlub right there I can't afford a real AT&T account But what's the model number? Well, it's the flip phone go I think it's that thing only made one version they made it for cricket You can buy them unlocked on Amazon. It has a cricket Alcatel quick flip. Maybe it's the quick flip Let me see That was a flip. Maybe there's just different brand names. It's 29 bucks. Yeah This is the one yes quick. It's got a little screen in front so you can see the screen so you can look into it Yeah, we know the cricket Alcatel. Yes quick flip black 29 bucks. Yes, it's got four stars Yes, now this has the original Kai OS on it before Google got into it. Oh

2:20:18 And so, which is a version of what was Chrome OS, where there was, you know, Chrome, not Chrome, Firefox. Firefox was going to make a mobile operating system, I guess they kind of gave up. These guys picked it up. This is now the battery life so far. I've had this thing on For 24 hours and looks like I'm still at 80% so that looks good But I haven't really been using it, but the browser and so it's 4g LTE the browser is super fast I don't know why it's different than the than the one on the Kyocera But this thing sings along, it's incredibly fast, you know, it still has kind of a low low res screen, but for some reason seems also better than the Kyocera. For the price, for 29 or 39 bucks, this thing is a gem. I recommend you pick one up. And the best part,

2:21:11 I fired it up and like well, I'm gonna read from the description it takes eat does email surf the web over crickets 4g LTE network or Wi-Fi Wi-Fi quickly swap snap photos with this fantastic 2 megapixel Yeah, yeah, yeah It has the screen. It comes with a contractor. That's not an unlocked phone. No, but I have the unlocked phone. You can get them unlocked. Okay, you probably have to pay the extra ten bucks. Yeah, whatever. And so it does have the little screen on the front which gives you, you know, about who's calling. So you have your caller ID. It also gives you the time so you can open it without having to flip the thing open.

2:21:52 The coolest thing is it also has a calendar and the calendar you can connect to different certain now again the Kai OS that runs on this Google made a 22 million dollar investment the shits ruined but this is not the ruined version this is the old version and If you don't do what I did you'll be great. I'll just tell you what I did I Opened the calendar because I said oh, this is cool. Let me see if I can connect the calendar to my good I still use a Google calendar. I've used it for a decade now, so I I you know fired up and I know settings Okay, you can go to a Google calendar. I do my username my password and it keeps getting rejected. I'm like well. This is weird Why is it getting rejected? I'm sure it's the right password so I give up and

2:22:39 And I get all these emails from Google. Unidentified device! We don't know what's going on! This can't be you! We've rejected it! No login! No login allowed! They can't identify this device. You have to explicitly... You don't want to do that at all. You don't want any Google... Because once you say, hey yeah, this was me, then Google knows that that's you. They cannot identify you or the device. All they see is Firefox OS and they're very worried about it. So I'd say that's a plus. Plus but don't log in If you log in then Google only gives you two options either you say yeah That was me or you have to reset your password and everything and who knows will happen after that But that to me was a big benefit. I really enjoyed that the Alcatel flip phone Go quick flip whatever it's called about 39 bucks on Amazon will keep you safe. I

2:23:36 And same, because that's really what it's about. Less interruption, less tracking, no apps. We had this guy, Sharbot, who used to be in China all the time and he was always bringing me phones that were like Apple clones and all the rest of them. But he said, he gave me a copy of the cheapest phone made in China. It was one of these kind of phones that didn't do anything. It was 20 bucks or 25 bucks in China. And so when we went to London for Thanksgiving last year, we brought all these phones to see if we could get SIM cards from local. The only phone that consistently worked was guess which one? Yeah, the shitty one, of course. Yeah. So this phone would probably be a great phone. This is a fan. It really is. Now it's plastic, it feels like crap, but

2:24:31 If you're like me, if you're just trying to get some sanity and it's and I feel I've been doing really well I really don't care anymore if I'm out and I don't know what's going on or I can't you know, it's not that important It's not what's that important? You're not a you're not a doctor on call. That's what I always tell people That's what we used to say when the first cell phones came out. Yeah Mm-hmm get yourself something that you have to you can answer anywhere. But if you're not what's the point of picking up every little stupid message that people send. We didn't wait. We were out Saturday, we're running around and I get a text, text message works and it's from you, a newsletter.

2:25:07 Like oh great, you know and I can go in I can it takes you have to sit down You can't do it. We'll walk in and shop and you got to sit down like okay. I'm gonna go into the email It takes a second you get the email. There's no notification to tap on for you You know, you got to do some work then I can open up your the the document It has some kind of document reader and I can send stuff back. So in a pinch for an emergency it works but otherwise Tina and I just had a great day walking around watching people bump into stuff multiple phones in their hands zombies You will feel good when you make this step. And the other thing I had is Tim Berners-Lee

2:25:51 Has started something that I don't understand. Oh, okay You know I saw the teaser for this and I never followed up to read it. So now maybe you can tell me well He's up to something. Yeah, he's he says oh we have to read decentralize the web Okay, I'm all in then Tim Berners-Lee is the inventor of the World Wide Web. That's how he is Credited as the inventor of the World Wide Web. He is the guy who invented HTTP, okay So he says, I believe we've reached a critical tipping point and that powerful change for the better is possible. That's why I have over recent years been working with a few people at MIT and elsewhere to develop SOLID, an open source project to restore the power and agency of individuals on the web. And so it seems like these are like there's some kind of hash space or you know like torrent space or something that he's

2:26:51 envisioning and everybody just has a couple of blocks of code which represent you and these blocks of code you Apparently you could just you know put them on your laptop and because of the way the system will work everybody can access it so it's really a decent you know it's I think kind of in a way like a Mastodon only without the server part in the middle I'm not quite sure how it works, and it's not very clear. It'll never be clear I Why not? You're gonna have to have somebody who really understands it explain it on a whiteboard. Yeah, when you have that, then how can people get on board with this? It doesn't seem like a good sale. Well, it's always a problem. I had to... This is the reason when I was... I had to actually to understand CloudFlare and Nginx, the

2:27:37 the two major things going on right now. I had to go visit the company and talk to the CEO and have him draw it on a whiteboard for me, which I can manage to do. I guess they'll probably do that. And they will draw the stuff up and you go, oh, okay, I think I get it. Yeah, okay. I'm going to take it back. It's not that you do this going to be so you have a pod POD. Solid that's the name of the company pod. It sounds like he's doing a VC play quite honestly, but anyway Within the solid ecosystem you decide where you store your data photos you take comments You write contacts in your address book calendar events how many miles you run? They're all stored in your solid pod and

2:28:20 The solid that's not my hard disk off to my drives is on my drive see you know my three terabyte You know plug-in. I mean, there's a blood what about my Yeah, I'm a my terabyte thumb drive. I mean no you gotta have a pod, baby If you don't have a pod a solid but everything has to be out there You gotta have a solid I don't like anything being out there. You gotta have a pod, baby. Oh I'll look into it. You know what? He may have a great technical solution, but he needs some help on the marketing. Here, big button, get a solid pod. Why don't you keep your pod away from me? Don't stick that in my direction. I don't want your pod. Put it in his face, whatever you do. It's very straight. But I'm going to try and understand it because, you know, the guy's a genius. And he invited me to the Queen. You know, I hung out with him at the Queen in England. Remember that? Yep. So now I'm going to see if we can figure it out.

2:29:16 Pod. The solid pod. I'm all for it. You know, this is the kind of thing, these things, the problem with Berners-Lee is that his time has passed and he, if he had stayed on the job of, you know, kind of like Linus, the Linus, Linus, yeah, Linus Torvalds. Linus Torvalds. did for until he finally was arrested after all these years. I think we maybe have a different situation, but coming back into the scene is like, it's like too late. Well, he was never really in the scene. I mean, you can ask him. No, but he was promoted in 90. Well, let's see, when did he invent that thing? What they should do is do one of those confused college kid interviews, man on the street and say, who invented the World Wide Web? I guarantee you most will say Zuckerberg.

2:30:15 Some will say Steve Jobs, some will say Google. No one, no one will say Tim Berners-Lee. Well, I'd say that's probably true. I mean if you ask who created the podcast it'll be Adam Carolla, it'll be Ricky Gervais. Yeah. Everyone but me. Yeah. I'm okay with that. My gift to the world... I need no recognition for my gift to the world. Sure you do. Yeah, a little bit. You're fooling yourself. So there's a big poll that came out, John. Yeah, what was it used for? Most annoying neighbors in America. Yeah? How's that a polling thing? Well, I'm just saying. It says, poll reveals most annoying neighbors in America. So I guess they didn't make a poll. How does that work?

2:31:02 Okay, well do you want to know how they did the poll or you want the results which could be funny? I'm just gonna just gonna be and oh, you know what you're the most annoying neighbor there. We got done there it comes what I was going to say is Austin is very high on the list their number three with most annoying big city neighbors Yes, it's like the best city to live in type of right but Austin is is on this list for a sp- I'll give you a couple of things. So Houston is the worst city for loud music. Philadelphia, the worst for loud voices. Los Angeles, the worst for loud parties. Um, Indianapolis, worst for loud pets. But Austin? Aggressive dogs. Huh. Yeah. And- Well, you live in a whole building full of dogs. And, you know, but I gotta tell you, I'm seeing a lot of these dudes with the pit bulls,

2:32:05 You know, with the choker collars and you know these guys all... yeah, the douche... douchebags! You know, just douchebags with a dog... Yeah, it's a shithole here. So you're seeing a lot of pit bulls in Austin? Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah. Huh. Yeah, lots of pit bulls. You should talk to your buddy and get a feeler. Yeah, that's what I need. A big slobbering bear walking around the apartment. No, I don't think so. They take any pit bull, they take two of them. No, I don't think so. I don't think so. Let's see. What else do we have here, John? We must be close to- I got a couple of clips. We got some actual news clips that are about stuff that mainstream is not covering. We might as well play them. Okay. This is, I got WTF Columbia. This is on Democracy Now, a little report from Columbia.

2:33:03 Tell me you know any of this. And in Colombia, human rights groups are warning of an epidemic of murders targeting environmentalists and leaders of social movements. New statistics compiled by a Colombian human rights group found more than 38,000 people have been displaced and 110 social leaders killed in the first eight months of the year. The swell in violence is centered in areas where armed conflict has been historically most active. And as Colombia's peace process has faltered under its new right-wing president, Iván Duque. Yeah, and you know, it's hard that this is coming from democracy now. No, I've not seen any of this anywhere in the American news media. Nothing. Of course not. No.

2:33:43 We're too busy with this. It's a good story, too. I mean, it'd be nice if you could flesh it out a little bit. She's just reading, you know, the first sentence in some press release. Whatever came off the wire. Same thing with this Mexico report. In Mexico City, President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador welcomed the head of the International Olympic Committee Thursday to a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the 1968 Olympic Games. Games, held in Mexico's capital city. The ceremony came just days after Mexico's government acknowledged for the first time that the state was criminally responsible for the massacre of hundreds of student protesters in Mexico City on the eve of the 1968 Olympics. To date, no one has been convicted.

2:34:20 convicted over what's known as the Tlatelolco massacre. Interior Ministry official Jaime Rochon said Monday, quote, "'The use of sniper fire was a state crime, aimed at creating chaos, terror and an official narrative to criminalize the protest. It was a state crime that continued beyond October 2nd with arbitrary arrests and torture,' he said." And in Columbia Human Rights Group. I just imagine her after those stories going, and in boofing news, I mean, it's like, you know, this is not, this is not, no one cares. No, well, I do. Of course. No, I'm sorry. No one is. A mosaic of bad news here and there. And the only last clip I have, I don't know if you want to end with it.

2:35:09 No, we'll play it. I don't know if it's the end of the show, but we'll play it. What do you have? Oh, okay, good. You got more stuff? Maybe. Well, I have Trump, you know, Trump went to West Virginia, did one of his classic hours. Yes, I got one clip from there too. Did an hour of material is the way I like to put it. And he's added a couple of new twists, a couple of new things. He's testing, he's doing a little test marketing of his material. When you see comedians doing this in the local venues, they always bring out a yellow pad and they'll actually read jokes from it. Did he have something in his inside pocket that he pulled out? No, no, he's just, but you can see this way, he kind of set it up, so I'm going to try this, you know, him trying new material. So, but let's play, because it was, you know, kind of interesting. I don't think he's really heading in the right direction with this material, but it's got this, you know, this punch, it's got this punchy. Democrat Party. So when you see Democratic Party,

2:36:03 It's wrong. There's no name Democratic Party. That's a great name. They should probably change the name if you think about it. Then I'd call him the Democratic Party. The Democrat Party is radical socialism, Venezuela and open borders. It's now called to me. You've never heard this before. The party of crime. It's the party of crime. That's what it is. A Democrat-controlled Senate will try to take away your Second Amendment. They're going to take it away. They want to take over American health care and destroy it. They want to make us Venezuela. That's what they want to do. You'll have Venezuela, big version. The entire nation has witnessed the shameless conduct

2:36:51 of the Democrat Party. They're willing to throw away every standard of decency, justice, fairness, and due process to get their way. They don't care how they get it. Some great things are happening. But a vote for Judge Kavanaugh is also a vote to reject the ruthless and outrageous tactics of the Democrat Party. Mean obstructionists, mean resistors. Wow! Wait a minute! Trump is actually doing what he accuses everybody of! He said, hey, you vote for Kavanaugh, that's against those a-holes. What happened to justice, rule of law, constitution? Fuck that. Fuck that. I hate that. This pisses me off. These tactics of the Democrat Party, mean obstructionists, mean resistors, for the last 18 months, Democrats have spent every minute trying to overturn the results of the last election. We had one of the great

2:37:50 We had one of the great... Every day it's like a job. It's like part of your job description. Get up and fight them. Get up and fight them. Nah. It's not working. And you know what? It's not working. You know why? You see that he goes to West Virginia and they do not preempt anything on Fox for him. They're no longer preempting because they've heard the material. He's trying to bring in new material. It's not landing. He needs some help. He needs something. He needs something to work on. I told you he's experimenting. He changes his stuff all the time. He's almost like a professional. Well, he did have this one, which this is what I got from West Virginia. Oh, by the way, we're doing great with North Korea. I have to tell you.

2:38:32 We're doing. You know, these dishonest people back there. So I left. What did I do? Was I there like three months ago? So for 80 years, they've been working on this stuff. And for 25 years, they've been working on missiles and nuclear. They got nowhere. They wouldn't even answer our president's phone calls. When they called, they told them, don't call us. And yes, I agree. The rhetoric was unbelievably harsh at the beginning. But we have a very good relationship. We were going to war with North Korea. That was what was going to happen. Millions of people would have been killed. President Obama told me when I sat just before taking office, he said the single biggest problem this country has is North Korea. And he said he was very close to going to war. But fortunately, his time was up. His time was up.

2:39:34 We would have been in a war. Millions of people would have been killed. This I find... This is bullshit. This is great. We would... Millions of people would have died. I mean, you have Seoul. 30 million people. 30 million. Right off the border. All dead. 30 miles away. All dead. Millions of people would have been... All dead. And yes, I came in and took a very hard position. And they didn't die. Very hard position. And you know what? Now we have this great relationship and let's see what happens. Let's see what happens. I'm trying to find the clip. He has fine-tuned his Korea spiel for his little bit for an hour. Yeah, I like that. If it was Obama then we'd all be dead.

2:40:17 The the foreign minister of something for North Korea was I don't know was on I only heard it and I didn't clip it but I'm gonna get the clip maybe it was Brett Baer or one of these guys and he was talking about oh we're so excited about President Trump because we want to get rid of all the nuclear stuff and we're looking forward to his economic support Yeah, I mean they cannot wait they want I mean I'm sure he's promised all kinds of condos on the corporations can't wait I agree the labor over there. They're so cheap mm-hmm. That's fantastic Yeah, we're gonna get us a couple of houses there aren't we some? Tourist areas and we could run a little business on the side tourist final thing for me when it comes to space travel Space Force

2:41:11 Space Force. I've been very adamant about a number of things. The moon landing was fake, but what is on the moon? Space Force. Oh, come on. What's on the moon? What have I always said? What? Moon bases. Oh yeah, we've never gone to the... this is the funny discrepancy in your thesis. We've never gone to the moon but there's a bunch of moon bases up there and many of them Israeli somehow. No, I said the moon landing was not... that was faked. I didn't say we've never been. I said the moon landing was faked and we have Israeli moon bases there already. But what is the other assertion I have made that would become... in our lifetime we would see what? WTC7 won't go away. Space elevators.

2:41:56 Oh, yeah, of course. I think the space elevator is a biggest fraud ever thought of right? Well, the Wall Street Journal has a big article about this company creating a space elevator. Uh-huh Yes, Oh by Yashi Corp. Oh, yeah, they says they can have it up and running by 2050. You know, it sounds good Space elevator. Yes, it would be and see nothing. There was nobody's in nobody's lifetime. I Well, I might make it. I might. I'll make it to 2050. I think. John was wrong. I knew it. John, if I can still say that to you in 2050, I will be a very happy man. Believe me. Yes, well, in 2050, I don't think the Space Elevator would be high on the list of things to discuss. But we'll see. We'll be like, damn, can you believe we're alive, son? All right, everybody.

2:42:59 Believe it or not, the space elevator is coming. And we'll be coming at you again on Thursday with another episode of the Best Podcast in the Universe.
