Wobama

00:00 Oh, okay. I don't like that! Looking back on absolutely nothing and broadcasting live from the capital of drone star state here in downtown Austin, Tejas in the Cluedio. In the morning everybody! I'm Adam Curry And from northern Silicon Valley where I'm looking back on all kinds of things Hey hey why are we working? I'm John C. DeVore It's Crackpot & Buzzkill IN THE MORNING We're working because we're true artists Okay... We need the money

00:45 We're working because people want to have some real information when everybody is gone. Well, all the substitutes are in. Yeah but the substitutes typically are no good they're doing retrospectives look back they bring in the B guests that's the worst. Yeah they do bring in the B guests Michael Moore was on speaking of B guests Michael Moore was on Chris Hayes for an hour. You're going to be a guest buddy. What? Yeah, B Guest. We'll get you at the end of the year don't worry about it he'll get on I tell ya Michael Moore was on with Chris Hayes for an hour Oh God, there's your big guy. I couldn't even pull a single clip from it! It was just like... So that's what going on in the... So Chris Hayes worked?

01:30 Yeah, not today as far as I know but yeah he was working and it's a good point. It wasn't just an old show that was taped? No it might have been a recording could have been anyway that's what M5M does here on the best podcast in the universe. Everything is so important Trump such a horrible person everything is so important Let's take some time off. We're all gonna die, climate change is going to kill us in 10 years Trump is literally ruining the country and the world Time to look back at the kickback and relax Take a little look at what's been happening in our in our little media world And in the morning to the troll room people showing up though John put two and two together about that No, people showing up today for the for the live stream. That's always nice to see that's good well Today I'll just kick it off today is Kind of partially somewhat election day

02:28 I have a recording of a report. Well, let's kick it off with yours and then I'll jump into my beat in the Democratic Republic of Congo political unrest is growing ahead of Sunday's planned presidential election on Wednesday the Election Commission said voting in three cities would be postponed until March due to the threats of the Ebola virus spreading and ongoing violence in those areas. Protesters took to the streets in response to the news, with many saying their votes may not be counted if election results are announced as planned in January. President Joseph Kabila was due to step down in 2016 but elections have been repeatedly postponed. This comes as the government ordered the European Union ambassador to the DRC to leave after

03:11 the EU extended sanctions against a group of officials including Emanuele Ramazani Chaudhry, the ruling party's presidential candidate for their violent response to protests and for repeatedly delaying elections. The DRC is experiencing one of the deadliest outbreaks of Ebola with health officials reporting over 350 people dead. And again they're missing all of it. Well you were expecting better? Well, yes if you go to a local African reporter which is what I did because there are some interesting things. We've got a name we've got some other details... I'll start off with as i said this is a yeah but did you get to see this Chaudhry guy with that crazy goatee? Yeah but he's not interesting and different guys interesting

04:01 independent National Election Commission, SENE via its president on Wednesday made the announcement that elections will be postponed in these three localities. We are talking about Beni, Butembo and Yumbi." Now we know that Beni is where all the cobalt is mined where also sadly and coincidentally all the Ebola is located Let's not forget that these three localities are considered stronghold for the opposition. And of course, Sene says like you mentioned that fears of more Ebola outbreak and insecurity underpinned this decision and I want to say that this decision has been hugely criticized

04:41 by a couple of persons. I want to begin with the opposition stronghold, Martin Fayulu who via a tweet and I would like to borrow his words he says Bemi Butembo as well as Yumbi are an integral part of the DRC which is one and indivisible And that to that effect the opposition leader has called for a death day otherwise called in French Ville-Morte today the 28th December out there in the DRC So Martin Fayulu... Hold on a second. I don't understand this if the stronghold is all the opposition, why isn't Amy Goodman and her communists pointing this out? Well she actually would have had a good time if she did three seconds of research. Martin Fayulu

05:32 Who has been picked as the opposition. And again, it's the opposition strongholds where the voting has been postponed. She did point out that they're going to announce the winners in January despite the voting in March. Oh give us a crap! Nobody cares what they're doing. What is his name here? Faiyulu Are you ready for this? There are couple things In the Democratic Republic of Congo, they have diamonds gold cobalt which we'll get to in a moment very important cobalt I think two-thirds of the world's cobalt which you need for your technology gadgets and really anything battery related Well this guy used to work for Exxon. ExxonMobil educated in America He's he's a total oil guy

06:26 They just brought in an Exxon guy and he is the one that's running. Listen to a AFP report. Outgoing President Joseph Kabila casts his vote in the election to choose his successor as head of the Democratic Republic of Congo After 17 years of rule, Kabila was not allowed by the constitution to stand again creating the prospect for the first ever democratic transfer of power in the former Belgian colony Of the candidates to succeed him, Kabila's own choice, the country's former interior minister is said to be trailing in opinion polls behind former ExxonMobil manager Martin Feulu. The opposition accuses the government of failing to distribute the fruits of economic growth across the 85 million population It also fears possible vote rigging

07:16 Three opposition-dominated regions have already been barred from the poll, officially because of concerns over ethnic violence and the spread of Ebola. Final results are not expected until January 15th." I never heard the pronunciation Ebola Ebola. That's new. So Feulu is the guy? Yeah, Feulu is the guy. He actually was arrested several times during opposition demonstrations in Kinshasa He was shot in the head with a rubber bullet at one point. This guy is pretty tough, but he's big-time oil executive actually I think he owns couple of hotels and he's one of these elitist who has probably been hanging around for awhile and now it's his turn to go in and take over since this kind of sham government has been in power for 17 years

08:10 I'm pretty sure that cobalt is really the main issue, although he's the oil guy. If you know... The oil guys know minerals! I'm sorry? Oil guys know minerals. Yeah they know minerals yeah that's true Just today in Kinshasa, the Democratic Republic of Congo has declared declared cobalt a strategic substance and they are now upping tripling the royalty rate miners pay of cobalt to 10% so the 10 percent royalty rate also applies to coltan which you would know better not I think that's in trend they use that in transistors maybe chips Colton never I don't know what that is

08:54 It's probably the mineral something else is extracted from. I'd have to look it up. And so if you start looking a little bit at what's happening in this area of Democratic Republic of Congo, it's pretty disgusting how these miners You know, don't think that these guys have a hat on with the light and they're going down in an elevator in a tunnel. No! They're sitting on railroad ties being lowered on ropes into these mines. There's kids groveling through whatever is brought up to try and separate the cobalt... And everybody knows that this is going on I mean you would kind of presume that Apple would have looked at it

09:35 Oh yeah, Apple's gonna look at it. But I found a report that just a short report that explains to us why we're no longer hearing about children working in the mines and the cobalt mines for your cell phone and you know unsafe working conditions and it's all in the words of course. Tech companies around the world are trying to clean up the way they source cobalt A key ingredient in batteries for smartphones laptops and electric cars But conditions remain hazardous in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is where about two-thirds of the world's cobalt is mined. We traveled to Kowezi, the cobalt boomtown of Congo. These guys are

10:16 climbing into these holes, straddling railroad ties and hauling up tons of cobalt with makeshift rope and no proper safety equipment or support whatsoever. In January 2016 a human rights report alerted the world to how cobalt is often dug up by hand under unsafe sometimes deadly conditions by subsistence miners including children Pressure began mounting on the businesses that use the metal in their products, since even suppliers that mine cobalt industrially often buy ore from so-called artisanal miners also known by the French word cruzer. So... Artisanal! Artisanal miners! Small batch

10:56 It's fantastic! I didn't have time to go look at Apple's annual reports, but i'll bet you somewhere they'll say- because it sounds great. Yeah we at Apple... We are very concerned about the health and safety of the people who work with us our partners and that's why we source our cobalt only from artisanal miners. I can't even say without laughing Wow Right, so there's a lot of stake. Somebody has to introduce the idea of blood cobalt Yes So they could twist that you know blood diamond thing around Oh mon mon mon Well gee Amy kind of missed the boat on the whole report Now you think if cobalt goes up by 10%

11:39 Or yeah, it's up 10% so it's tripled. Okay the cost of mining cobalt... No no they say that the costs of their tax to the government was tripled I mean 3%, it went to ten. It? No! No it tripled 2-10%. Yeah well what is how do you triple two ten percent if you don't have a base around three point three percent? They did, its three percent Yes that's what he said. So they tripled it to ten percent we're saying the same thing okay good So if the basic cost of cobalt goes up and that price has got to get past the line, will our phones get more expensive? Will our battery cars? Well 10% would probably add. It's just going to add 10%, you know... That's $1500! Yeah they're getting more expensive but not because of the cobalt. You're gonna get more expensive because you're getting ripped off. Exactly. Strategic artisanal cobalt everybody look for it in an iPhone near you

12:42 I'd love to see the videos of those kids digging away. Oh, it's in the show notes! They just have it... It's no secret Just call it artisanal and everything is okay Yeah small batch Yes, small batch cobalt Beautiful Alright Okay well there's our first depressing story to end a year Wait we're not looking back No retrospective We're showing you the future So my wife was bitching and moaning and groanin about this About the downage of the 9-11 lines all over the country. Yes, yes I have a short clip and I was listening to this and said ah now i know it she's why does one company should say Why does one company have such control of all the 911 outlets around everywhere? CenturyLink by the way so let's play the century link clip we get little background on

13:31 Telecom giant CenturyLink said today it's still trying to restore internet and 911 emergency services in several states across the country. The outage began early Thursday, affecting millions of customers from coast-to-coast Louisiana based CenturyLink says the outage was not caused by hacking the FCC is looking into this Oh, well I'm glad you set that up with that clip. It's a perfect setup because i have A little more detailed story and I have a CenturyLink spokeshole Unless you wanted to say something about this. No, I'll say something and we're all done For the second day in a row potentially millions of Americans dialing 911 would not have gotten this An extensive outage at telecommunications company CenturyLink knocked some emergency call centers offline for certain callers around the country highlighted in this map from the website down detector

14:27 In a series of tweets beginning late Thursday... By the way, I love that the news is using such artisanal tools as down detector. get a reading on the health of the 911 network. It's sad. CenturyLink said its engineers had quote identified a network element and that the problem would be restored within four hours but today more than 14 hours later, the company reported technicians were still working to restore services announcing a fix an hour later. The head of the FCC announced an investigation calling the outage

15:03 completely unacceptable. It's breath and duration, particularly troubling. Central Inc has not provided details on what caused the disruption and it's unclear if the outage prevented anyone from receiving emergency assistance. Fire rescue dispatcher 49. Many of the affected emergency response agencies suggested people call their local police department's 10-digit phone number if they need help. With its 911 system out, Boston Fire tweeted a picture of its old street fireboxes operational since 1852 in the case of an actual emergency." Yes those things apparently still work. Yeah well that's the old days

15:41 Yeah, it works now. So did you find out anything about why CenturyLink has the monopoly on this? They won't say they want nobody's talking but I looked at the map It's all over the country and big blotches all over the place Nobody...I know what this is This is an example of microservices architecture Uh.. I don't even know if its Some code broke That's all takes with MSA to ruin everything They apparently sold us, look you can do this or you can just use this. Plug this into your system and everything will work fine. It routes the calls it does all these things and a piece of code didn't work something weird happened who knows there's a million things that happens to you all the time. Artisanal code? Artisanal code! And this is the problem with MSA This is the doomsday

16:37 problem with microservices architecture. Yeah, this is Professor Ted's territory now if you would if you were the spokeshole for CenturyLink and you had said that and said well microservices architecture You know we have to reevaluate there some things nobody Nobody in fact I even think half our audience doesn't know what I'm talking about when I'm talking about Microservices Architecture then why don't you speak to the other half of the audience? The normal people as you know i just think they don't give a crap or what it was never presented to him that would be the problem. Well now he's gonna tell anybody about microservices architecture because it's a bit so well kept secret everything runs using this technology or architecture which is that you and you can start a company up right now anyone can,

17:26 and find pieces of microservices architecture. In other words, little things somebody who'll take your credit card, somebody will put you create a database of names and addresses, somebody who do mailing list in some ways my using of MailChimp is microservices architecture I think in this case you may not be right. This was a network issue, and they run some kind of network... Well let me defend myself then. Microservices architecture also depends on quality network quality network connections. Microservices architecture goes down not because of code, but because there's a break in some network link and the next thing you know nobody in the country can do credit card processing. Right right right okay

18:18 That's what this was. This is the end of civilization as we know it. I'm sorry, you're wrong that is not what this is! I have the answer from the spokesperson of CenturyLink from the horse's mouth so to speak You are wrong! How bad do you? You're wrong here is what actually happened We are not concerned about the reliability in the system This was a technical glitch that was not able to be identified in advance But now we will be able to put in systems to make sure we can and if you I got 99 glitches And put a goatee on there, will ya? I really despise this To stay and this was for journalists. This was a press conference statement Glitch everybody and you know what all the press did

19:17 Would you look at the time? I'll find my story. Sounds good! Now it's about something that could actually hurt somebody It's not acceptable, it's not acceptable reporting, it's not acceptable... I mean... Are we still on the old Adam Curry pet peeve of the day clip? I don't see curry as pet peeve of the day Glitch. Glitch my ass people. It is so unacceptable And everyone's like, oh okay. Put a time code in for us. Yeah I think i have to. Oh man! The point is that people should look into this it is...I didn't even know about it until maybe four or five years ago when uh I was explained the whole thing by uh the guys at um one of the what's that patchy competitor? I can't think of their names. Ning

20:15 and Ningen X. Yeah, Ningen X they have... They rely on it they use it I mean everybody's doing it. This show relies on a job? We rely on it to some degree we have some reliability on microservices architecture we do we use buckets from Amazon So that's part of it. You can't get around it because you could do it all in-house, but you would be burdened and it would cost more. Internet interplanetary file system is the future IPFS I use it I did my feed and people had worked people got the How many dozens of people got to feed that way? Oh, it may probably just about that The ones who subscribe to it yeah well It's hey it worked

21:09 I just put it on my laptop and people were able to download it, and I had my laptop disconnected. It was fantastic! Anyway, digressing. This needs to stop this is now it's important I would really like to know what's wrong? I'm sure there are some networking dudes named Ben out there who are also interested. There were a couple of networking dudes named Ben and if you look at that map all these outages all over the place I'll betcha' there was a single point of failure That's the problem with all microservices architecture There was a single point of failure where some one thing One little connection somewhere crapped out There's some guy on a bicycle, you know using the bike lane Roll over a cable that was exposed and busted it. Yeah something like that yeah here Anyway all right we got everyone we got everyone straightened out on that I'm glad you did It was just a glitch. I don't care when microservices Smurf is it was a glitch everybody just so you know glitch

22:10 I was watching the news because it was a commentary. I made on the last show about you know It's too early to deal with the 2020 presidential election, but not the case with NBC my goodness It's I don't think it's a smart move But that's up to them I think people can't give us the foundation for what we can look forward to complaining about My play the 2020 prelims under this is a Holly Jackson It's not true. So she's a big woman and they put her on the, and I don't mean any offense to that. There are a lot of big women But they put it in unflattering dress You don't put her in our red dress make her stand up Not too early to talk about 2020 many potential Democratic candidates spent this holiday huddling with their families about a possible presidential run And in some cases even starting to look for staffers NBC's Kelly O'Donnell explains

23:23 Tis the season for Democrats to decide. Over the holiday, I will make that decision with my family. During the holidays i'm going to sit down and pick a lot of stock. Ringing in the 2020 race. At first year when we have family decisions... The new year will usher in what is likely to be a gigantic field of Democratic challengers competing for staff, resources and voters attention. I'm going to reflect on whether this is something that i should do but all that thinking turns into action as early as January some forming exploratory committees formal announcements likely within a few months

24:01 By the way, that was a very odd clip they threw in there of Joe Biden. Why would they do that? I mean if Joe Biden is one of your guys, why would you make him sound like he's only focused on Trump? Is that truly what the Democratic voter wants? I found this whole package which i believe Holly produced because she voiced the Oded. Shit! I'll wear the dress but I have to produce the piece

24:42 And she had a lot of good stuff in there. She had the continuation, everyone was saying I'm going to go over the holidays and talk it over with my family. Talk it over with my family and she has a lot of good consistent... It's a very well produced package that did seem not like Joe Biden. Yeah! Yeah, yeah, it's probably slant- Well no, the package on everything NBC is terribly slanted. Let me finish up because I want to hear the rest of this. Up for grabs from the most recognizable- Wait stop stop stop. Since you're gonna finish it up, go all the way If you look at it from the perspective of a propaganda piece, I think the way it ends kind of gives us little indication to what we're going to be witnessing in that coming year. Okay good. And experienced like Joe Biden... It's all about Donald! It's not about anything else Or Bernie Sanders wondering if he can capture lightning again Based on my past based on my ideas that in fact I am the candidate that can defeat Trump

25:39 Or will Democrats make a generational shift? A USA Today Suffolk University poll finds 59% of Democrats and independents surveyed say they would be excited about someone entirely new. At least six senators could run for the first time. You have to decide that you'd be a good president, that you could bring the country together that you would be able to beat Donald Trump. A November Senate defeat has not dampened buzz around Beto O'Rourke Not to rule anything out and just, just to be open While former Obama cabinet secretary Julian Castro has a date picked On January 12th I'm going to make an announcement about my plans

26:21 Of course it's early and the path unpredictable, but the process is getting underway with many of these potential candidates trying to position themselves in what will be a costly and competitive quest for the nomination. Democrats also have to decide among three cities where they will hold their nominating convention And it will go fast. Iowa Democrats will be meeting to caucus in just about 400 days. Callie? Almost here, Kelly O'Donnell in Washington. Kelly thank you So you think Beto? That was Kelly O'Donnel not Holly that did the report Yeah Beto Beto huh You know its coincidental The Keeper and I were out yesterday We're looking for a place to move too In April May time frame

27:09 And so we also went to some open houses of places we can't afford. But everywhere you go, South Austin... in South Austin particular the Beto signs are still up! I had one of our, James Fitzpatrick, I believe his last name. One of your Texas producers sent me a Beto sign from one of the big ones. Oh the really big? They're cool! Not really really but it was big. Yeah no but everyone has their yard signs still up. The yard signs are everywhere yeah

27:46 That's very interesting. I'm reminded of Pia Zadora for some reason. And when the rain begins to fall... Yes, Pia Zadora! Let's talk about her. I interviewed her. Did you now? Yes! You tell me what- What'd she think? Well, all I know is that she had a rich husband. He has a rich wife who promoted the... because her dream was to be a superstar and so he just spent a lot of money on her getting her... Let me tell you exactly what he did! I think he's dead now. I think he's long gone but Pia Sedora had manipulated her guys' money and I want to say that they seem very much in love so it's fine by me

28:27 To make this song it was from they produced a movie and a soundtrack and She did the soundtrack with Jermaine Jackson, which is like you know you got a lot of money We didn't quite have Michael Jackson money so we got Jermaine Jackson And there's and when the rain begins to fall From now I'm doing this off-topic something about the something in The Alien Now I gotta know PS Adora movie with that something. There's something in The Alien I'm gonna go watch it now. No, you don't was it the voyage of the rock aliens? It was something like that man she did a lot of movies. I mean her husband paid for a lot of movies Yeah, voyage of the rock aliens. I believe it was she was kind of a cutie yeah Boys you think you met or talk to no I didn't know no no She's all right. She was very tiny very very tiny and

29:26 Yeah, well so is... But yeah. So your point is well made because Beto's wife is heiress to a large fortune and her daddy-o probably still has some influence But I was thinking about it and while he seems kind of good on paper, you know white Obama Let's just call him that. He has just like it Wow a white whoa, but we can't call him Wobama if you want to sure I Think we have a winner Obama yeah, he reminds you of I mean how many reports have we not heard it Wow very reminiscent of Obama. Okay? He steals Obama style will Baba yes We doesn't well and if it's steal it or first just know there's lots of nice studies that instills Obama was influential impressionable on young people like Obama better little war but Little Beto and I can I see that people dig that part is

30:26 But he's much younger than Obama was. I think he is 10 years younger than Obama was when he ran? I don't know, I think so and if you just look at the guy and like... You can see him running! You can see him debating but do you really see him running the country?! I don't think any American sees that. They'd be like ehhhhhh He's just not, you know he doesn't have enough. But JFK was the same way dude! It was the same way man. Yeah man alright. JFK was like a young guy and they didn't like him because of his good look at it I think if your old enough to vote for JFK then you can vote for Obama You can do whatever you want. Alright i don't know

31:14 It would be great for the show. Well, it's gonna happen I mean they're gonna run him he's not gonna get past in through the primaries Hillary is still going to come in and sweep in Yes as per your newsletter I want you to reiterate this because it's important where we were hearing wall-to-wall Hillary up until about six weeks ago she was everywhere she was with the women in tech lesbians in tech and that's really what I'm not making that up it wasn't the lesbians in Tech conference She's doing interviews everywhere, she's hamming it up. She's got her paperback version with a prologue and then she starts this fateful tour... A three-hour tour and you know that apparently I don't even know if the tour has been cancelled no one is reporting on it other than No this has not have been cancelled and nobody was reporting on it Right So what is And you know there's material in there Hell yes!

32:13 If you don't mind, there's a lot of people who foolishly do not subscribe to the newsletter. I think it is good that you explain again just what is happening here Well, to sum it up Hillary's being blackballed by the media. Yes And she has been left out when they talk about polls or here's the news poll says this that and the other thing there is no mention of her When they did this run down that Kelly did on this or Kathy or Kelly whatever whoever was in that report we just played She has all pictures, she has screenshots of one... All the potential candidates from including Amy Klobuchar who even have a sound bite of Amy Klobuchar talking about how she's thinking and running. And so you have screenshot after screenshot of people in a big murderers row shot

33:08 And no Hillary, there's no Hillary. She's not mentioned and she's not shown she's been completely blackballed when they do polls. She'll show up in the poll but they will leave her out when they present it to the public So what do you think her strategy will be? I mean she's not taking this lying down. I mean she's clearly lying in wait No, this is not going to happen with her Yeah! She is going to...she's taken names for starters Right I think what she's gonna do is lay in wait, and she knows she's been through this enough. She did the Obama... She lost to Obama then she lost to Trump and so she's um... She ain't gonna lose to Beto No no! She's not going to lose to Beto But what she's gonna do is she knows the rope's enough now that she still has the same people That she's gonna lay in wait let these guys you know kill each other off And she's gonna come in late Hmm She's just gonna swoop in Risky risky strategy

34:09 But she'll have to wait for some... Well, it's not as risky as you think if you consider the field being so big and everybody wanting to run. Yeah. We're talking 40 people! I know but the media is strong and she clearly doesn't have CNN on her side MSNBC seems to have waned Is she counting on Fox News? The Democrats at Fox News to help her No, there she's counting on the new cycle to help her. You know when she swoops in it'll be like a big deal and what can she win again? It becomes a center of attention She won't have any trouble getting ink I'm just wondering what hurt what the catalyst will be I am not disagreeing with with the strategy although ice you know I don't know She's nuts. She really thinks she can do this maybe she can I don't know Maybe just maybe the numbers do add up against her budget And I don't think we'll see a repeat of Trump Clinton Just doesn't sound right

35:03 It doesn't sound right to me either. But this is, I think gonna be what she tries to do and i think she could pull it off. Isn't there's not even going to be a Trump in 2020? He's going to jail! He's going to jail, I tell you! Impeachment imminent. That's all I see on television. It's imminent and the people... Any minute! As The New York Times says- The New York Times is the worst offender by the way. Any minute now? It's not if he's going to be impeached it's when. Well just on that for a second I guess somewhere Christmas, right after Christmas.

35:46 A report came out that there was a Prague ping from Michael Cohen's cell phone, which would mean he lied and that he was in Prague colluding with the Russians. And this report came from McClatchy, which I don't know why but I think I know the name but everyone seems to be saying this is a very reputable outfit tell me who McClatchy is? It's one of their old syndicates it's very established not some newbie It's not like the whatever you pointed out earlier about the downtime.com or whatever it is So they have they have chops really there, but they're a dying operation But it's you know then you will like these two clips I have from the man himself Greg Gordon who is the person who wrote and filed the story for McClatchy and

36:37 And when you're, you know even though your old-school I mean they have standing. Is that what you're saying? They're reputable they're seen as they have standing Yeah, I think so well So the best they could do is get on The Joy Read Show for some reason over at MSNBC It doesn't include having a good agent Oh Well, they definitely need an upgrade in agent and um The question is you know who exactly were your sources now it's okay I guess we're in era of everything is the anonymous sources, people... Well you know I can imagine seeing some of these old school operations having to stoop to new age tactics to get some air time because they can't do it with their legitimate reporting. That's a possibility

37:22 Do you have any idea about their sources? Have you heard any... No, I don't even know this story. Oh! Well this was part of the sparking up of the It's All Over Forum because it turns out that there is evidence somewhere from someone from sources that have a ping in Prague from Michael Cohen's cell phone. So that would have to be the NSA that found that or this or the station chief from the CIA that was monitoring something or other. I don't know, it sounds sketchy." Well let's listen to McClatchy defend his reporting or Greg Gordon from McClatchy defend the reporting and the sources. If there are intercepts that put Michael Cohen cell phone in Prague one would think those would be fairly specific but the reporting of McClatchy is that they were either in August or September how would they

38:15 How would they not be more specific if these are actual intercepts that show the phone pings? I think they are more specific, but unfortunately we weren't able to pry that out of our sources who were getting information from foreign intelligence agencies. It was a counterintelligence investigation closely held Did your sources see the intercept for themselves or are they passing along information from other people The sources have some of the sources have government sources I got government sources people who have told us that they have trusted intelligence type sources that they get information from. We don't know the specifics, but we have used these sources on many subjects and they have been very accurate." I'd say they're not only stooping to the modern tactics...I'd say he's holding his ankles

39:07 He's so stooped over. I would find this to be very sketchy and then he started off by saying that the sources were foreign intelligence sources, not our boys, not the NSA CIA. It gets better. You know that sounds a lot like the Steele dossier? I reread the Steele dossier today because... Listen to him laugh as she basically Rubs it in his face. I'll give him a giver a point for that saying yeah This kind of sounds like the steel dossier, and he just cracks up laughing Why did why what was so funny about that?

39:51 I'm wondering myself. I mean, i'm kind of befuddled by this again McClatchy and it wasn't like a Nervous laugh It was a it was a guffaw yeah there wasn't a tell it was like and i'm an all-i don't know what that was So if she says I reread the steel it sounds like the Steele dossier so either he thinks a Steele dossier is total crap or It's a complete breakdown of his system like haha Something is very strange Because the reality is if your sources didn't see the intercept themselves did they let you see them

40:29 Did they let us? Were you at work, did they pass it. Have you seen the intercepts? No So what we have then is that the sources have been used before and they're saying that was told They were told that these intercepts exist That is true What kind of evidence do they provide for you to feel confident that this was something that you're willing to put McClatchy's name on Well, for one thing we got numbers. We have four sources who told us about this and for another we have read the beginning of our story to some of these sources make absolutely certain that we've gone over it and over it

41:05 We worked on this story for a really long time. No, they went over it and over it and over it. And yeah he has four sources so we just got numbers I like how he said that hey first of all we got numbers is that the numbers? Is that another thing you say in the news business like if we got numbers here okay? So I got numbers I got sources who know government sources I got numbers I'm the clatchy did your source come to you and say hey we have this new information or did you go to them asking Well, it's been a dialogue for a long time. So you know and my partner Peter Stone did some of this sleuthing but we both are Sleuthing? What is he, Nancy Drew? Yes I'm here in Prague. Maybe there's something behind the bookcase! Some of this sleuthing but we both are well acquainted with the sources and we would say some of this came from foreign sources and those people

42:04 One of those people talked to us over a long period of time before he provided a drop-off information. He's not unglued, but everything is unwinding before his very eyes and he even admits to it in this. It gets kind of sad I mean the reason that i'm asking because we know there is a possibility that sometimes sources have motives for putting things out And one of those motives might be to get McClatchy to run a story like this Even if isn't true Is there any concern at all that people might have had motivation to try and get you to run a story That was sort of an Otta and Prague situation where

42:41 What is Ada in Prague? I've heard the expression. I've never heard that expression Oh now we have to, now we have to look it up. Ada in...I think its a movie reference. Is it A D V A? I think Alpha Delta Alpha. Ada maybe not. Ada in Prague. I don't know. Ada restaurant I was just a promotion for some restaurant. Even if it isn't true, is there any concern and one of those motives might be to get McClatchy to run a story like this even if it isn't true? Is there any concern at all that people might have had a motivation to try to get you to run a story that was sort of an Ada in Prague situation where... Ada in Prague maybe I'm not hearing it right Abba in Prague maybe? Dance in Queens! It didn't happen but they want it printed Well that's not the kind of

43:33 Dialogue we've had would create that kind of suspicion because the people that we've been working with But you always have to be wary of disinformation what I would say about this information We just think about the dossier and Michael Cohen Because this is this whole Cohen episode. The reason it's got so much attention Is that it goes if Mueller has not yet charged anybody with? collusion or any crime right equating to collusion and so what this meeting or purported meeting in Prague could mean is the first strong evidence of some sort of collusion. Beyond this, the fact that his cell phone appeared to show up in the Prague area we don't even know if there was a meeting but... This is coupled with some intelligence from an Eastern European intelligence agency that picked up this conversation

44:34 Now it's a conversation. Yeah, so now the Conversation they picked it up and somehow came from Prague And you know any collusion It's now the last 20 seconds very very sad thing this man is about to say Michael Cohen is in Prague from from a Russian official we believe a senior Russian official I guess my question she would be Is there anything that you were able to actually physically see for yourself, that corroborated what these sources were telling you? Anything that looked at the intercepts would give some further evidence beyond their work. I wish we had! We held out for a while for that and it came with time when we thought we had critical mass. It is a competitive business. Yeah it is indeed. Greg Gordon thank-you very much for your time. It's a competitive business...we had to get this story out there

45:25 I think that's very sad to hear this from a so-called reputable old school organization. Well, it's a shame... well that's why you never heard of them. They can't cut it. It seems to me that the CIA and NSA would know if Cohen was floating around Prague ever! So this is not a story, its a bullcrap thing just to excite the public. Well for McClatchy Net final nail in the coffin sounds like to me Done those boys are done. I tell you um Downer here for the downer it's meant to entertain We've had glitches we've had pings what else do we have going on in the news? Oh

46:18 Well, I got a series of clips. Let me change these either Oh idea did I was going through my he was gonna do the I did again or D whatever happened to ah yes Yes, yes, yes If they have two clips on the same topic because it turned out to be this is in 2015 just a few years ago It turns out to be this was the news item of the year it was there were every channels I have a two clips about it. Was going on and on everyone's just up in arms and they're just everyone is in a tizzy over this whatever happened to story, then I had the PBS version that they have the ABC teaser on this thing. Let's start with the teaser. The eye-opening new cancer warning hot dogs processed meat and bacon now put in the same category as cigarettes and asbestos Whatever happened to that story? Whatever, that is good Asbestos Well let's listen to the PBS report

47:19 This new report released today by the World Health Organization found that often beloved meats like sausage, bacon ham and hot dogs can cause certain types of cancer. Prior studies had established similar connections but the WHO was the most prominent health organization to specifically say processed meats can cause cancer It looked at more than 800 studies around the world it also found that eating freshly prepared red meat like steak or pork or lamb probably can cause cancer as well Now, is bacon processed? It's cured. It's sliced up. It's not really smoked. Processed to them means anything other than just shooting the animal in raw. Then still on the pig! It's still on the pig. It's unprocessed bacon. It's smoked and treated sometimes with nitrides to protect it from animals. Are we dead yet?!

48:10 Yeah, yeah. Well I can follow that up with the story you know in the United States of Gitmo Nation we have the Food and Drug Administration running around trying to... not trying writing up regulations to stop children from the evil vaping because it leads to smoking! It's a gateway drug to smoking. We don't know the effects of nicotine, you could die." And meanwhile kids are vaping up a storm but they're not smoking cigarettes which is why the company formerly known as Philip Morris bought Juul for some ungodly amount was it 60 valuation? $60 billion dollars crazy and from real sales and real forward-looking stuff so yeah that there's a very big future in the UK

48:58 Gitmo Nation East, they haven't quite caught on to that. Did they no longer have... I thought Philip Morris was wasn't that British originally or at some point? Do they not do they no longer have a stake in cigarettes and tobacco products the UK? Of course, I think they do. I wonder if the UK has any relation to tobacco anymore because the Public Health England which is government's you know Public health propaganda arm has launched a campaign to show well I'll play the let me so it's hold on Philip Morris. I'm looking at their wiki page they are a They're still in tobacco. They were founded in 1847 Their headquarters in New York, they're not a British company thought they were What is yet British American tobacco? There was a number of companies that there was a lot anyway

49:54 They won't if they do because they're really trying to get rid of cigarettes and they're doing it by showing the kids vaping is good. And what we are going to do is, we are going to have one bell jar set up to smoke the average number of cigarettes smoked by a smoker each month... I need to give you some visual aids here So they have three bell jars with cotton balls in them. One is the control bell jar which just has cotton balls, no just air then they have one with a vape stuck on the top and they have one with a cigarette holder and They drew in the equivalent amount of cigarette smoke and vape vaporizer condensation

50:36 as to a month's worth of smoking each product and I'll say smoking in... A months' worth of nicotine in one puff? No, it's not the nicotine. A months' worth or whatever you puff from a cigarette, a months' worth from whatever you pop from a vape and then just nothing plain old air with the same, you know, just the control jar. Here is the bell jar with cigarette smoke. I mean it just is so revolting, look at this that's just the inside of the jar here a lump of tar So thats whats going on inside your lungs There are loads of it and this only after one month

51:34 So now let's have a look at the e-cigarette. Let's just see, little bit of vapor that is the only one that has really got much in the way of color My research shows that e-cigarettes are significantly less harmful than cigarettes A big reason for this is the tar which you can see here Which is not produced by e-cigarettes but produced by cigarettes Which are linked to diseases such as heart disease stroke and cancer Well there are six million smokers in England and we think about half a million of them will try to stop smoking in January. The best thing that a smoker can do for their health is to stop smoking but don't try and do it on your own, we ask people to search smoke free and get some help so they can be more successful quitting smoking. I dunno but to me it sounded like they were telling the kids vaping is good?

52:23 Well, it doesn't produce a lump of tar in the size of baseball. No! It doesn't and there was zero talk of nicotine Nicotine is not the issue Tar and whatever you know whatever other cancerous crap. Nicotine's the addictive issue So they say. Tar is not nobody's addicted to tar Hey I've become a roofer Yeah exactly but you get the point It's like someone is not on board. Of course, this is what these guys do they've been in the business of these guy must be beside themselves when they were banned from advertising They owned one of the NASCAR races They were advertising on TV they had Ronald Reagan smoking Chesterfield Do you remember Johnny Player Special?

53:13 No i'm jps the black with the gold letters it was all the cars had a jps johnny player special in the cigarettes and members of fifteen year old man was smoking johnny play especially well like that but like smoking a dog turd. Unbelievably crap, Good times. Most of the cigarettes are, well I never smoked so I can't really meet...I'm not a connoisseur so i can say but these guys have to be beside themselves because we're talking about some of the greatest marketing people in the world that have to sit down and come up with schemes because they can't really just do you can't just cut them loose it's got to be very frustrating right? Right

53:56 So this is their latest, so at least they're doing... They keep them busy. Yeah well I see there's a bigger future for vaping and it's big! I think you're right. It's really well if only we had... I think it's dorky especially with the smoke. Smoke? It is dorky. It is not smokin', it was vapor but my favorite schedule souped up things they fill a room you know as vapor. But the vape goes dissipates pretty quickly Yeah, but it's... But I do remember going to visit Dexter. I remember visiting Dexter at the vape conference in Dallas a couple years back and the whole hall was just one cloud. It was just hanging there smelling of like popcorn and cotton candy. Oh my God, he's making me sick! I'm not a big fan of that cotton candy. Where was this event? In Dallas. It was big. It was at The Convention Center A lot of people vaping That's when they got the hoverboard, remember

54:53 Oh yeah, whatever happened to that thing? Yeah I gave it away. It's a flying bomb man! You don't want to be on that thing. The battery... just wait for the battery to ignite in my house. I don't need that. Yesterday i saw some guy go by on a one wheel segway. Between his legs? Well, yeah but you're riding like a skateboard so you're sideways. It's between your legs but you're sideways and the wheel is parallel to the skateboard. That's all we need more of that I was thinking about the dockless mobility which is what we're talking about and here's what I don't know too The companies that are big in this are Uber and Lyft And they've purchased pieces of the big front runners Bird and Lime

55:44 And you know knowing that The Uber model itself only is working because they're severely undercutting the actual price of... I mean, they're selling rides below cost in most cases. Unless they... unless I use you know the app i used to use on my phone They go haha it's curry just do times five because that's how they price their rides You know Tina will use an app and she'll get the same ride for less Same with Airbnb and all that stuff. But, you know they're really not making any money on any rides I think they're losing about $1 billion dollars a quarter And the reason they are still around is because they've been able to get some new group of idiots for The fifth round of investment to put money in so it's a bit like a Ponzi scheme Or at least it's a scheme where They just need to keep pumping money into keep afloat

56:40 You agree with the with this assessment because I want to make sure I'm seeing it right cuz I know I don't you think they're making money you think they're profitable there are reports around that float around an investment community That show that you can if you set up one of these bullcrap operations. You you're in the black within 60 days wait, and now I'm talking about cars first not about the bikes. I'm talking about the cars Oh, I don't know anything about the financing of that. That's where they're losing a billion dollars a quarter is my understanding So they've bought into this what you believe is profitable or you've heard can be a money-making operation But I'm just gonna go whatever happened to or whatever yeah Whatever happened to we had the big bike sharing startups in China

57:29 It was exactly the same thing. They had two billion initially in venture, you know then they 18 months they started to start to really catch fire and then more people came in and then more money and they started to acquire each other And then they had an IPO one of them raised four billion dollars in IPO and now these companies are all done broke There's huge mountains of these bikes that are just, you know, just piled up because they're out of business. They're not used... You give them to the homeless? I don't think they have homeless in China. Oh it's true. No homelessness. Yeah no China. So what happens is investors just stop investing and say well you don't seem to be able to make a return and this was on the scooters and the bikes so I don't know it just doesn't seem like ...I mean we've got a lot of people in China if you can't make it work

58:23 Pictures of China there were more bikes than we thought in Amsterdam's like all these people really have a lot of bikes Man, you remember the video the old film footage of oh here's Beijing and people on bikes everywhere. They couldn't make it work I'm not so sure. Every time, if there's an Uber involved... Well my advice is don't invest in this! Well no but also you know i think the whole system just it doesn't seem sustainable well If you think about it doesn't seem right to have all this crap laying out here buying all these things and then having them laying all over the place

59:02 It just doesn't seem like I have to pick him up and charge them. Yeah, yeah that's expensive. It's an expensive GPS that's got to cost money And now downtown Austin they have a new problem whenever one of these bikes is or these scooters is parked in the middle of the sidewalk there seems to be someone going around and putting his boot and bending the disc brake on the back There's a disc brake on the back? Yep. Exposed disc brake, very thin and it's apparently if you put your boot on it while its lying down you can bend it and then the wheel won't go rendering the whole thing inoperable someone is doing that downtown

59:46 Some vandal some vandal is doing that I have no idea and I bet you the police aren't interested in catching him either No, no. We have other things to do sir yes Not sure what we gotta go protect the ground for the soccer stadium make sure no one's peeing on it something like that That's awesome thing that's always overlooked in these great utopian schemes Is that is the preponderance of? I'm not talking about just occasional, I'm talking about preponderance of vandalism. That's why we have the police. We have way...I mean it just a man...just humans in general have especially in freedom-loving countries we have a preponderance of vandalism. Just go and drive through any city and look at all the graffiti

1:00:36 It's all vandalism, even though there is a lot of art in there. In Austin we have what we call graffiti park and we call it art where it really just a bunch of...it's place where they're some run down buildings were kids smoking dope and drinking spray painting the wall but in Austin its art Well their are pieces I've seen, I've collected some actually Of graffiti that is art Its very specific style of art And it's very pretty. But that's not what most of it is, most of it is these you know what they call throw ups and just tags and just a mess. Well clearly its beatniks who are doing this in Austin so they're taking the law into their own hands. And with that I would like to thank you for your courage and say In The Morning To The Man Who Put The C In Cobalt John C!

I am very pleased to let you know that the karma requested for my back surgery worked awesome! Yes...I only had a very minor infection but other than that my incision has healed beautifully it's been two months since my surgery and the actual surgery results are absolutely amazing Before the surgery I had such severe leg pain, that I could only stand for about 30 seconds and walk about 20 feet before I collapsed. Wow. I'd been in a wheelchair for nine months after the surgery right when i woke up in the recovery room, I could tell that the pain was completely gone in my legs! I've been slowly recovering getting my strength back very carefully until the fusion sets and then I'll be able to start physical therapy so now not only has no agenda helped me with my mental well-being and strength but karma has also helped me get through a very rough spot in my life

Yowza Alright. Uh... Listen I had a question for ya Sure Or anybody out there can explain to me why

1:23:30 There is this obsession with Mumia Abu-Jamal. What? Otherwise known as Wesley Cook. Free Mumia! You ever seen those stickers you go into any like Philadelphia or Baltimore, where you see these stickers on poles that says free Mumia?! No I don't know anything about this. Well...I know about it. Mumia Abu-Jamal He's a guy who shot a cop in Philadelphia and got life. How long ago did this happen? But I would challenge anybody to go to the wiki page and read about it, but first let's play this clip. I've got a clip on here they are again because Democracy Now! would be one of these operations that'd be trying to free Mumia. And those are some of the headlines. This is Democracy Now!, democracynow.org, The War & Peace Report.

1:24:20 We begin today's show with an update on a major development that could be the path to freedom for former Black Panther Mumia Abu-Jamal, the award winning journalist who was convicted of the 1981 murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner. but has always maintained his innocence. On Thursday, a Philadelphia common pleas court judge ruled Mumia Abu-Jamal can reargue his appeal in the case before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court because then Chief Justice Ronald Castile failed to excuse himself from the case due to his prior role as Philadelphia district attorney when Abu-Jamal was appealing his case

1:25:01 Abu Jamal's lawyers argued that statements Castile made about people accused of killing police officers indicated he should have recused himself. They cited campaign speeches and letters he wrote that called for the death penalty in such cases, Abu Jamal spent nearly three decades on death row. Before his sentence in the shooting death of Officer Daniel Faulkner was thrown out over flawed jury instructions, prosecutors then agreed in 2011 to a sentence of life without parole Judge Tucker's decision on Thursday was split because he denied Abu Jamal's claim that Castile had, quote, personal significant involvement in the case while he was in the district attorney's office. For more we join—we're joined here in New York by Johanna Fernandez, a professor of history at Baruch College-CUNY, the City University of New York.

1:25:52 and one of the coordinators of the campaign to bring Mumia home. She has been in the courtroom for part of this case, and is the editor of Writing on the Wall—Selected Prison Writings of Mumia Abu-Jamal. Professor Fernandez, welcome back to Democracy Now! Can you talk about the significance of Thursday's ruling? Well, this is a case that is important for Mumia Abu-Jamal but also for dozens of people sitting in prison in Pennsylvania. Essentially the judge established that if there is prejudice in a hearing

1:26:32 the defendant has the right to a new hearing and... You can kill it. Yeah, hmm all right so this guy The story, to make it short I can read from the wiki page but i recommend people go there and look at it. Just type in Mumia you'll get it. There's like witnesses of what happened he was a cab driver who became an award-winning journalist when he was in prison uh he did some kind of reporting for a couple local radio stations got fired by one of them became a very staunch Black Panther during that era. And he was driving his cab at three, four in the morning when apparently his brother was pulled over by a cop for something and the two of them got into an argument. Mumiya got out of his cab walked over and shot the cop in the head. That's a day wrecker! This was witnessed by numerous people including a hooker. He was taken in with... Sex worker?

1:27:35 He was taken in and his gun had five rounds missing from it. He had passed all the obligatory tests, powder on his hands, all that stuff and he still had the gun they had a murder weapon It goes on and on and now we admitted it to somebody in prison that he did it There's always these things but for some reason I don't know what it is like I can't believe it just because you said I'm innocent that this has been a left-wing cause. And they, I mean it's possible that he could have been framed...I've never seen a frame like this It's just too much Too much! Too many people. I know its come forward saying that they lied

1:28:22 It's just outrageous and they, this continues. This has gone on since the 70s. The guy has been in jail for 30 years and the left wing keeps bringing it up as though it is some sort of a cause solaire but I don't even know why! I don't know why! Well like...I can wager a guess as to why its cropping up now As we just had prison reform, President Trump has been working with people of great importance like Kim Kardashian and also entertained some input from Kanye about certain prisoners who have been in for a long time.

1:29:03 Maybe they're trying to hitch onto that bandwagon, just bring it back again. And maybe just to say Trump you hate Muslim sounding people because he didn't help this guy? I mean who knows! It could be that it could be any number of things Well I don't think this guy's getting out but to me this has been going on for way too long and it's just... Yeah, maybe it explains why it's come back into the news at this point. At this time? Yeah right now But this has been continuous Hmm interesting yeah you know I got we got lefties out there somebody can explain it to me I looked up and... And I don't want to hear all he is innocent He's not innocent! I looked up Mumia Abu-Jamal on the wikis and I got hi reader in the US It seems you use Wikipedia a lot that's great It's a little awkward to ask but this Sunday We need your help we depend on donations

1:30:00 Of course I'll donate. Just because they make a lot of money doesn't mean we don't use it a lot and just because I don't always agree with what they say, doesn't mean that we shouldn't support them. I would send them a nasty note. No, I always send him money at the end of year. It's an invaluable resource whether its right or not. Well... Well it is valuable resource there's no doubt about that You said this guy became award winning journalist in jail? Yeah, he wrote a book about being in jail. Well it was kind of you know gee just like... Which I think by the way there is some left-leaning idea of the literate mind so if you can you know this happened with Norman Mailer He found some guy in jail who was a savant very good writer I can't remember his name Henry or something like that

1:30:48 Henry something and he got him an early release pretty much in Norman Mailer's recognizance, so that guy went out and killed somebody or raped somebody just something to get thrown right back in jail. And it was a huge humiliation for Norman Mailer. Well, speaking of journalists odd journalists the Washington Post on just between Christmas and New Year's on the 28th released a little bit of news. It was very actually very it reminded me a lot of The Climate Change Report you know just pushed out on a Friday kind of hush-hush we don't want to which is something that Washington Post yelled and screamed about

1:30:00 Of course I'll donate. Just because they make a lot of money doesn't mean we don't use it a lot and just because I don't always agree with what they say, doesn't mean that we shouldn't support them. I would send them a nasty note. No, I always send him money at the end of year. It's an invaluable resource whether its right or not. Well... Well it is valuable resource there's no doubt about that You said this guy became award winning journalist in jail? Yeah, he wrote a book about being in jail. Well it was kind of you know gee just like... Which I think by the way there is some left-leaning idea of the literate mind so if you can you know this happened with Norman Mailer He found some guy in jail who was a savant very good writer I can't remember his name Henry or something like that

1:30:48 Henry something and he got him an early release pretty much in Norman Mailer's recognizance, so that guy went out and killed somebody or raped somebody just something to get thrown right back in jail. And it was a huge humiliation for Norman Mailer. Well, speaking of journalists odd journalists the Washington Post on just between Christmas and New Year's on the 28th released a little bit of news. It was very actually very it reminded me a lot of The Climate Change Report you know just pushed out on a Friday kind of hush-hush we don't want to which is something that Washington Post yelled and screamed about

1:31:26 They put out a news report admitting that they had discovered text messages between their star columnist Jamal Khashoggi, that became very clear to them that the chief executive at the Qatar, Qatar Foundation International Maggie Mitchell Salem had been texting him and shaping his columns proposing topics drafting material prodding him to take a harder line against the Saudi government

1:32:03 And this was below the fold even in the article that they admit to this. So we were right, the guy was a shill! Yeah... and he wasn't even... I mean who was writing these columns? It looks like Qatar was writing them or this Qatar Foundation International Yeah, who you know Qatar and Turkey their buds now. They're all against Saudi Arabia And I think it's disgraceful that the Washington Post didn't just say hey You know what we really messed up on this one because they did doesn't it does it work? There's no anti Trump angle But in post but it's yeah well That's my point It is the Washington Post that discovered this

1:32:51 That they're big, you know. They're big columnists! They are freedom fighters! Oh no we love him he's great He was just a shill for the Muslim Brotherhood and they have every right to be journalists as well but don't tell me that you're The Washington Post and your holier than all that You got just... you've got same problems everybody else has only you didn't catch it What did you? They did it well, they finally caught it. They did it sheepishly that's very very very very low Yeah Especially for let's put in us below the fold on page 40 and then a Friday night have done the Bulldog edition Exactly is exactly what they do exactly what that date is disgusting Okay Well Let's since we're in that part of the world a little bit let's talk about the Sudan riots because there's a funny thing That happened on the way to the Sudan riots

1:33:44 uh... which are going on as we speak is not being covered by the media of course There's too many retrospectives of the great 2018, whatever happened then. But let's play this. In Sudan scores of people have been killed in anti-government protests that erupted last week government officials put the number of dead at 19 though Amnesty International said earlier this week the number of dead reached 37 The government has declared a state of emergency and reportedly censored or shut down newspapers that were covering the demonstrations The protest which were triggered by Now, the code words came into that story.

1:34:36 And I realized that we haven't really talked about it much. We did when the first, when the Arab Spring began... Yep The severe rise in the cost of bread Bread! In Egypt, bread Egypt? I think Tunisia had a bread problem Syria? Everybody has these... It's always in there They got bread problems Yeah, bread problems It was a bread problems, because of the huge rise at the cost of bread For one thing, we're never told what the rise is ever. Was it from 10 cents a loaf to $5 a loaf? Was it from a dollar a loaf to two dollars a loaf? What is the severe rise in the cost of bread and this happened before I think that's code. I think the CIA coder somebody's right that gets into the story to let everyone know that okay We got to mobilize over something here or so lets

1:35:26 You know, meet your handler and let's talk about it. Right then who knows? Typically after the bread code goes out someone lights himself on fire but that they pop that too early this time and it wasn't in Sudan would we have a guy light himself on fire I don't know if that way of the chronology is correct somebody's always lighting themselves on fire but I don't know what if that's in relation to the bread announcement No! I did...I do not think so But that's why I'm saying that We get bread And then we typically get lightened on fire Or the other way around Could be But the bread thing is the one that kids stood out when she gave this report because yeah, I agree. They've gone nuts Over breads cuz everyone goes under the streets and starts wrecking the place because of the price of bread really well bread is important to some people It's easy for us No, I know but something make their own bread they said the price of wheat if that's gone up That would be different it's a different story. It just doesn't there's something about it. It's just something about it doesn't

1:36:29 Yeah, the prices of bread has gone up. So I'm gonna go riot and wreck my break the town here bread price hike Starts violent sparks violent protests. Let's see if we can find out the actual bread price increase Yeah, that'd be neat need to know But Sudanese police fire tear gas on people protesting higher bread prices Wow hmm so it sounded like a like a color revolution thing So we haven't had a color come out of it yet. No, Sudan would be beige I Found a good podcast a drone podcast called droning on which kind of attracted me I'm like that's that's funny if you have that kind of humor about yourself

1:37:21 about being a podcast and this guy is you know I think we've talked about this like the The actual vocation of journalists is just invalid. Let's just go to someone who actually knows what they're talking about We don't know much about drones There are people in our network, in the Value for Value Network who know a lot about drones but no one offered anything up He does a drone podcast, he's in the UK and he has a couple of theories about the phantom drones at Gatwick airport. So a very quick recap for the incident at Gatwick thousands of flights were cancelled or diverted The military was called in multiple police forces involved not just Sussex

1:38:01 5 million pounds spent on anti-drone systems, the international press and media camping on site with telephoto lenses looking for a drone and all based on eyewitness accounts but yet not a single video or photo of the drone. So if it wasn't a drone what exactly happened? Well there's been a lot of speculation people have suggested eco warriors complaining about additional wrongways being built at the airfield other speculation has been a major systems failure at Gatwick. Shortly after the Gatwick incident, Birmingham reported an air traffic control error which led to grounded flights such a failure of the airport would have resulted in them paying millions of compensation to airlines and passengers and of course the airport would not want that

1:38:42 But the bigger news for me is the announcement yesterday that Vinci Group are buying 50.1% of Gatwick. Vinci are a French company that currently own 46 airports around the world and in October 2018, analysts estimated the value of Gatwick at between 7 to 10 billion pounds The sale to Vinci of 50.01 at only 2.9 billion puts the value of the airfield that just less than 6 billion which is far less than the estimation of the analysts earlier this year so the big question is did the drone crisis at Gatwick devalue the airfield therefore making a sale to Vinci more economical? I like all of those Wow! The one I liked, I think it could be more of a combo though

1:39:27 Where another I don't know if whatever say, I don't know enough about the air traffic control mistake But I'll tell you when it comes to millions of dollars in an aviation and airport Yeah, I'm pretty sure they do anything to not have to hang for that. And maybe that would be the catalyst You know the acquisition they didn't want that getting out It sounds like a cover-up night. I think the guys got a couple of good ones Yeah, that was a great analysis. Yeah the eco warriors memory beat also all 67 of the Sighting reports were all airport employees no passengers Hello? Yeah, that's dubious yeah That's podcasting for you people yeah, that's where we have to go to get their real information nowadays You get nothing from the mainstream. That's for sure those guys are pathetic

1:40:22 Let's go to Saudi Arabia, leadership update. Get that guy out of the country. Leadership updates! In Saudi Arabia King Salman has consolidated power for his son crown prince Mohammed bin Salman ordering a reshuffle of the cabinet nearly three months after the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi which caused international uproar and brought Saudi leadership under close scrutiny Notably, Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir was demoted to the position of minister of state for foreign affairs. Al-Jubeir blamed Khashoggi's killing on rogue Saudi agents. He also previously characterized the international outcry of Khashoggi's murder as fairly hysterical. The cabinet shakeup is seen as a boon for the crown prince by placing loyalists in key positions. Bin Salman will retain his roles in the government including deputy prime minister and defense minister. Earlier this month, the U.S. Senate

1:41:09 It passed a resolution saying it believes the crown prince is responsible for Khashoggi's murder. Khashoggi, U.S. resident and columnist for The Washington Post, was killed by Saudi agents after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey on October 2nd Okay, so where does that leave everybody? I'm a little confused. Well, as the solar reports are confusing. Hmm. Where it leaves anybody just Amy's at this change the guys got more powers got consolidation is going to go on with his project to build a Dubai clone out in the middle of nowhere and also he said he would rebuild Syria

1:41:48 This is part of the deal. Saudi Arabia's supposed to rebuild Syria, whatever needs rebuilding... How is that going to work with the Turks? The two don't get along very well. Well some deals have been done... Maybe the Turks will clear out the place and the Saudis will come in and rebuild? Possibly The the Turks are on the border now. Now, you know they've given the the Kurds enough Heads up leeway lead time also Trump's deal I think he's like get out Yeah, so they're on the border there about to go in and do whatever they think is necessary Yeah, well that should be very more bloodshed. So their work they work well at the Russians It'll be fine. So Amy is is working

1:42:29 She's working. That was from Friday, I think oh okay well still she doesn't know they never work on Sunday But she's working the week. Yeah, she's working weeks the other people no no it's not a retrospective Mainstream guy They and because one of them takes the week off And they all take two we go off cuz it's in this you know that People think less of them if they had to actually work so the president has been at the White House over the holidays He's made quite a point of it I'm sitting here over everyone's at home Nancy's in Hawaii. He's doing what we're doing Yes, milking it like a yes milk in it like a podcaster he is But he did do a couple of interesting things first he Stock whispered the market up a thousand points Which I have a backstory report on I'm told new reporting now a high-ranking Trump administration official reached out to a well known hedge fund manager for advice on how

1:43:22 on how to get stocks to go up. That the call took place after the Christmas Eve sell-off, the worst ever for Christmas Eve. The administration was said to be determined to get stocks to reverse and go higher I'm also told that the investor who was called told the administration official to get President Trump to stop criticizing J-PAL on Twitter, the Fed chair To stop all of the turnover inside the White House Mattis, the latest to depart, the defense secretary And of course to strike a deal with China Well Sounds like he got part of that right. The word came out, like oh no no the Fed chairs... No danger! No problem whatsoever and then he also said go buy the dip and that worked out reasonably well as for China yes it seems we have some deals it looks like we've got a rice deal which is new and huge We may have a soy deal there's something going on and here's sorry

1:44:19 I think the soybeans deal is bigger than the rice deal. Well, we've never had a rice deal so it just depends on maybe size but i think the fact that rice would... how crazy is that? We're sending rice to China! The Japanese won't take our rice you know that why don't why won't they take our rice because they feel if they start the Japanese unlike us feel that they start importing rice and it will ruin their artisanal businesses. Of having children in the rice field, artisanal is now code for child abuse and child labor Well here's a report on what the president is doing with China Is there any promise that they could make about snooping or not stealing our technology? That could be believed

1:45:08 Well, what the president has been writing about in his books and saying in his campaign speeches is he's looking for a verifiable agreement. He's looking for things that we can actually make sure the Chinese do. But can you verify from people like this? You can have verification measures, yes. This was done in the case of previous trade agreements The trick is going to be seeing performance actually take place So if they buy a hundred airliners we can see that happen If they actually shut down intellectual theft Companies and put people in jail have some show trials. There's a Chinese proverb You probably know called kill the chicken to scare the monkeys shaji Jing Ho in Chinese Hey, shaji jingo yourself bro if they have a lot of these trials And put people in prison for 20 years for an act for property theft against Western companies or technology transfer That's forced that will have a huge impact that we can see but I think no I'm looking forward to that

1:46:09 Well, there was an NBC report which is largely a propaganda piece on Cummings diesel. Okay? Oh, the famous diesel manufacturer Yeah they're in Indiana I believe and they have... They're very famous diesel maker they have a lot of modern technology for diesels comes from them. But let's play these clips and I got them chopped up to a lot of small pieces just to show you how the NBC slants things, and this go with the... And also drops in little propaganda bits coming diesel one. Columbus Indiana is thriving there's new brewery not far from a century old ice cream parlor many towns like this have struggled with jobs moving overseas

1:46:58 But in Columbus, one company has held it all together because of trade with China. Our economy would go down the drain if Cummins wasn't a part of our community. Cummins is the world's largest independent diesel engine maker employing 10,000 people in Indiana alone We export about 65% of the engines that we produce here But this American success story founded here 99 years ago faces soaring costs and $200 million in losses this year because of U.S tariffs on Chinese goods. Tariffs are harmful, they're a tax and they create additional cost that will eventually be borne by all customers This summer the Trump administration imposed tariffs on Chinese steel and aluminum And on key parts Cummins needs We have no suppliers available in the US In fact there are not foundries

1:47:46 operate in the US. Let's stop there. There are thousands of foundries that operate in the U S there is three in my area and I can see two of them from the house or one of them while she's lying, she's lying She's the spokes all for comments and now that the thing about this is no foundries in this lot of make big products as they make it I don't know which was made being we have a we have a fox but the Chinese are doing people to make an engine block. We ever producer who has do his dad has a founder he sent us foundry stuff yeah right you made ice cream scoop

1:48:24 That's a foundry. Yes, it is a foundry but it doesn't make engine blocks. Engine block foundries are big but they're around now so I'm listening to this report this on NBC as packaged and this assertion that the US has no foundries goes unchallenged by the reporters. Oh geez NBC, you mean. Okay? All right let's go to two. The tariffs are on components like these engine blocks they're essentially the skeletons of the engines making up 40% of the final product but the only place that Cummins can get them China President Trump's leadership is working

1:49:06 And China wants a different American president. Tough talk, but here it's more personal After all Columbus is Vice President Mike Pence's hometown Are the potential consequences on places like your own home town worth this fight with China? The United States of America today has faced more than 600 billion dollar trade deficit And the better part of half of that is with China. It actually engages in forced technology transfers from American companies and even outright theft of intellectual property." But his tone was far different when as Indiana's governor, he visited a Cummins plant in China He cited the immense potential for the creation of more great jobs for Hoosiers through strengthening ties with our Chinese partners

1:49:53 Cummins workers like Steve Engel have counted on that partnership. If we don't have globalization, we don't have no growth right? Right...right....no Who said that? Here's a guy worker, a union guy and he somehow this guys is man on the street This is the man on the street and says if we had no globalization We ain't got no jobs! Right? Well thats what hes been taught That's what he's been taught. So, so what he is saying in essence is that throughout history there's no such thing as growth unless there's globalization. That's what he said. Let's listen again. Cummins workers like Steve Engel have counted on that partnership If we don't have globalization then we don't have any growth right? Right, poor guy...mind control

1:50:45 piece of crap that they threw into this report. NBC is pro-China, anti-American." Clearly! I'm making that assertion it's pretty obvious The NBC that presents everything like that and if something Trump wants to do it's Trump's is not the United States And also he's Trump and also Trump's wall when went when Mike Pence was in charge of Indiana He was protecting Indiana's interests, and yes That's how the state and federal model works so that doesn't always align now. He's a federal guy He's a Fed you know a different different Different issue make him sound like as a flip-flopper

1:51:26 Well, that was the idea. Yeah, of course So this I got a three-second little kicker at the end of this part 3 now They find themselves caught in the president's trade war It's the president's trade war. It's not America's trade war with China. Oh, no it's the President's. It's Trumps' personal thing...it's just hurting everybody. It's hurting us because you have to keep no globalization so they're pro-global they're anti-Trump. Pro-China and anti-Trump. So now here is the way that when he does his sign off and throws it back down holly holly holly holly Von Hilliard NBC News Wait wait

1:52:10 I gotta set this up. This to me is the segue of the year, and there's a big deal when they way people segway things we do it every once in awhile have a really good segue it's like kind of cool sometimes we stop the show as a showstopper yeah that segway was great! Yeah just for our because we are globalists for our global production audience a segue is when you transition from one topic to the other and if you can do it smoothly it's called a great segue And there's a lot of things called awkward segues where you go from, you know talking about some burn victim to somebody promoting fire eating. But you have like this possibility existing actually that this hour has 20 minutes 22 minutes whatever it is up in Canada has a whole segment of awkward segments. This I consider to be just an anti-Trump

1:52:58 segue because of the way they present this story, the globalist positive globalist thing here with it. With the engine blocks that apparently before China existed Cummings couldn't make I don't know how they did it how they existed but listen to the way this segway works Vaughn Hilliard NBC News Columbus Indiana another painful reality we saw play out this year a record number of school shootings Wow Wow. Yeah, so we had which was apparently that Cummins report was a painful reality very painful reality people and very much in common with school shootings it's just as bad which we find out now

1:53:40 Oh, I have the report. Oh, I have a report too? Whose report do you bring? I have the CBS version. All right let me do mine first. What's your length of yours? The length of mine is 52 seconds Okay, I got 154. You do yours first. Alright, The Florida Sun Sentinel publishing a bombshell reports on the Carpland school shooting massacre in February this year it's headlined as unprepared and overwhelmed The paper goes on to report that two decades after Columbine and five years after Sandy Hook, educators and police still weren't ready for Parkland. Surveillance video in the report shows killer Nicholas Cruz in the beginning moments of the massacre telling another student quote you'd better get out of here things are going to get messy then pulls out the AR-15 begins shooting

1:54:23 The video also shows Deputy Scott Peterson, the school resource officer. The only armed lawman on the campus as he reportedly, the paper says fails to go inside the building despite shots being fired He ordered a school lockdown instead of ordering deputies toward the building Later revealed in this report that officers quote may rush toward gunfire rather than shall according to policy there in Broward County That was a terrible report who was that? I think that was CNN Which makes sense that it was terrible. Yeah, they're terrible Well for one thing there's we saw the video of the kid walking in on the guy with the gun and he's not shooting He pulls it out as the kid walks past him And then he had it out and he was loading it as the kit can The kid looked at him and he looked to kisses you better get out here something bad is gonna happen They told the kid to get lost because he was loading the gun mm-hmm

1:55:16 And that's not the same as telling a kid to get out of here and then pulling out a gun. No, but this is a little longer reports pretty much the same thing as I think it's a little better. This is CBS and 10 months after the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida we're seeing for the first time video from the school's interior security cameras The Sun Sentinel newspaper obtained a video as part of its investigation into the mass shooting that killed 17 students and staff members. The Sun Sentinel says the video shows moments where opportunities to end the chaos may have been missed

1:55:53 Manuel Borges has our report. The just published video shows the moment shooter Nicholas Cruz entered a stairway in the school and while loading his semi-automatic rifle warns the student who happens to walk by according to a draft of the official report by the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Public Safety Commission, Cruz told this student you better get out here something bad is about to happen. The reports says that freshman students fled and immediately told a football coach who did not issue a code red It was one of three missed opportunities, the report concluded to warn the school there was an active shooter. Cruz was left to make his way through the school to the third floor where students were gathered in a hallway after a fire alarm went off The shooting lasted eight minutes leaving 17 dead

1:56:39 For the first time, we see Cruz running away from the school. At the same time deputies believed he was still in the school because they were watching surveillance videos that were on a time delay. Andrew Pollack whose daughter Meadow was killed in the shooting reacted to the new video tweeting this minute-by-minute playback with so many missed opportunities for intervention is heartbreaking and calling for the resignation of officials in charge The Commission's draft report calls for improved training of deputies and educators, and recommends a controversial policy of arming school teachers who undergo proper training and background checks. A final version of the report is set to reach the governor's desk next week." Wait a minute! Wait a minute... wait a minute! Yeah What? Now- They left that out of this CNN report didn't they? Sure did

1:57:30 That's Trumps horrible idea. Yeah, and now that's something they're considering yeah Fantastic this only time I only reported never heard it never in the report if you sat down and read it But nobody does that well know that we just copy with a really good report from CBS Especially when contrasted with their piece of oh, yeah, and good could work on finding that one That's interesting. Yeah, I know! I got the biggest kick out of this conclusion. Arm the teachers! I have some New World Order news because we have Davo coming up in January. Davo? It's the winter jam where all the elites jet off to the World Economic Forum and they have a title now they've there all set up they've announced what they're doing

1:58:23 This is the title of the World Economic Forum for 2019 will be Globalization 4.0! 4.0, one more time we can do it! This would be Hillary Clinton 4.0 Here's what they have global economic leadership okay globalization is being redefined simultaneously by four major transformations and this will be the topics Global economic leadership is no longer dominated by multilateralism but characterized by plurilateralism. What does that mean? Well pluralism, let's look it up I know what it kind of know what it means I don't have the definition off the top my head It's plural lateralism Yeah but plural lateralism will stem from the word plural You need to be an elite just pronounce

1:59:21 Pluralism. Try it! John, what do you think about the plural? Pluralism is a condition or system in which two or more states groups principle sources of authority etc coexist Well, what how does that of holding more than one office or church? Wasn't in the church only want more and so plural Lateralism would mean like unilateral means you do it yourself bilateral. It means you do two people plurilateralism Means you have three or more parties involved well How does how does that differ from multilateralism I don't see that it does well they but okay multilateralism according to the book of knowledge refers to alliance of multiple countries pursuing a common goal

2:00:02 Yeah. And here they say global economic leadership is no longer dominated by that, but it's characterized by plural lateralism. So there's saying there's a difference? Yes! Well what is it? I don't know but they're gonna have... I just read the pluralism definition sounds the same to me They're gonna have a chat about it in the snow Okay, so we don't understand that one. The next topic the balance... We just don't understand what they're talking about. This is gobbledygook! They're just trying to confuse us Well wait for the next one The balance of global power has shifted from unipolar to multipolar So that means it's shifted from unipolar which would be us I think yeah, I think what they're saying is hey America screw you put your foam finger down

2:00:52 There's China and they probably think Europe. They probably think they're the other part of it. Yeah, yeah sure. Yeah Europe China Us and then of course they were just ignore Russia even though Russia is not that big Then we have the next topic ecological challenges including but not limited to climate change are threatening socio-economic development Let's think about that It's threatening socio-economic development. Is it? Well, it is threatening I don't know what is so... What's threatening but not doing anything! Well what is socio... Don't talk no action where the action here? Where are the rising tides? What is socio-economic development

2:01:38 What is that? It's growth. It's like the improvement, it's growth of a society and its economy And finally the fourth industrial revolution is introducing technologies at a speed and scale unparalleled in history It is? Well, they... I guess if you go back to the 1300s. Yeah! I think they're talking about technology. Well, I'm sure they're talking about technology but i think that the growth rate is..I guess.... I guess it's unparalleled in some ways. So is the inflation of the money supply, that's also unparalleled. Now to go along with this Angela Merkel she will be in attendance She is right on board you know she's on the way out...she's not looking too good actually. I think she's looking at this picture and doesn't look as jolly as she does. No, she started to look hang dog

2:02:37 Mmm, it's a little more than I don't know. I hope she's okay yeah anyway she did a Little speech where was this speech? It was at the Where was it it was her for our own party mm-hmm but she said oh And I quote, nation states must today be prepared to give up their sovereignty. In orderly fashion of course she joked attempting to lighten the mood there were politicians who believe that they could decide when these agreements were no longer valid because they are representing the people but The people are individuals who are living in a country They are not a group would define themselves as German people she stressed

2:03:24 I don't know what that's all about. But there it is, Europe must be stronger and win more sovereignty! Nation states must today be prepared to give up their sovereignty and this is shaking the European Union This is being reported quite broadly as you can imagine. I can imagine but I guess she couldn't? No I mean, it's like Hillary when she made the commentary years ago that she sees a day or once a day where there is no borders from the tip of South America to Alaska. No borders. Yeah. No countries. Party time! Party time... It's like what kind of thinking is this in this society? Well yeah, it's kinda an interesting idea.

2:04:17 The wall, the fence whatever it is we have. It's not going to make any difference it won't change anything We've got this stuff in place now but these migrants these economic migrants and some of whom are asylum seekers they got tricks man they got tricks They know how to get past any structure We have a problem and the problem is that fact that the border will be sought on your newsreels a few weeks ago how people coming up to the fence could simply melt through the fence. The wall is important, the president understands that. Wait a second I want to make sure and that's why it will be done Is this like a Marvel Comics book situation? They melted through the fence? Yeah you saw them, you saw the films People just literally were under the fence they were over the fence, they we're sliding in between the slats They're shapeshifters John! They're melting

2:05:06 No wall can stop that. Well, luckily they like to do gardening. That's Texas Congressman Burgess we got some real cards here don't we? We got some good guys well you had the one guy who just did one smart guy just died and he did leave at least help us the oldest vet in the world is an Austinian old black guy was in Pearl Harbor or he worked out of Pearl Harbor but he's the last vet, he's 112.

A roadmap to long life Oh a road mapped and he died 112 years old you say yeah I'm paying attention

2:05:54 America's oldest veteran, who also happened to be the oldest man in the country died yesterday from pneumonia at the age of 112.

I'm gonna be America's teenager maybe So here's a, you know I like the way they've turned to New Year celebration as something about Khashoggi. At least this is nobody reports this because it's not report... This is dumb but this is Democracy Now! reporting on Times Square celebrations now It's going to be dedicated to dead journalists Apparently Amy did this before The Washington Post reported that he was a shill for Qatar

2:17:21 Yeah, I'm sure. protect, preserve and practice it. Journalists will join in the celebrations hoping to kick off the anticipated ball drop countdown to the new year. In its recently released annual report on murder journalists CPJ found at least 53 journalists were killed on the job this year 34 in reprisal for their work almost doubling the number of targeted murders against journalists in 2017. Okay Amy. We don't hear about any of them by the way? No

2:18:05 No, it's only one of them. No and he wasn't a journalist who was a columnist Sorry, that's a little different thing by the way Sir hashtag null has emailed us the font to the font porn the poor NATO of fonts yeah it is the noteworthy Font now Is that the original name because most fonts have been renamed and then stolen? He says The font you loved is called note worthy n is a Macintosh standard font huh I'll look into it. Sad, John! Sad news or just sad things taking place you know? I've been following the climate grief where surprise surprise... Oh yeah this is your beat Well i'm gonna swerve a little bit on this

2:18:53 The point I'm going to make is that we have been telling the world, and i'll say we because it's our generation. The journos, news whatever you know starting with of course Al Gore We have been telling the world were going to die You and I have heard it for decades. We've heard we're going to freeze to death, the population bomb, the tipping point in peak oil...we're gonna die for a million things and now climate change global warming with the most recent report we have 12 years really effectively 10 before we died and young children

2:19:29 are being affected by this. It's they hear it, they read it, they hear their parents talking about it and even though there is a high likelihood that a lot of parents don't really think we're going to die they forget to put the disclaimer in so people here things and it affects them, it affects their amygdalas, they become enlarged... You can't tell some kids you're all gonna die in 10 years! Well I have some examples and this is not just kids these are young adults to show you what has happened with the political correctness, social justice warriors just what's going on in our universities. There are two... I don't know if you saw either of these clips and I don't know how much I can play at each of them but they really show what society has become when the first takes place in a convenience store with a transgendered woman who

2:20:24 is very... if you see the clip, she's clearly still in transition. Because you can tell that she is a woman by her hoop earrings, her mid-longish hair, pink purse and that's about it. Quite a beefy transgender woman but what happened? I don't care! I really don't... It's fine with this however you want to be dressed whatever but The guy who was behind the counter I guess says, yeah could you guys wait a second to a female and whatever he thought it was. And the transgender woman went ape shit over this because he made a mistake and this is where... This is the problem I have

2:21:18 And I think this is, you know... the issue in society in general. We have that now in the UK where you can't misgender or deadname or do it and you can get in trouble for it. What's a dead name? Oh if you use a transgendered person's previous name which usually would reflect a name of the opposite gender than they are today That's called dead naming. That is probably why there's this new trend specific namings we did on the show I had a list of them that don't neither men or women so you can name your kid that and then hey you can keep the names. So it's less paperwork, it's not as much of a hassle if you want to change okay but yeah I think when you listen to it you'll hear someone who has problems with this and

2:22:13 This is not the way it's supposed to go, I don't think in society. No we're not doing credit! You've been giving my fucking money back! Excuse me sir there is a young man in here and you're walking around with a gun on your head. Excuse me its ma'am! It is ma'am! I can call the police if you'd like me too but you need to settle down. You need to settle down and mind your business okay? Ma'am once again ma'am- I said both of you. No you said sir once again it's ma'am. I actually said both of you guys as a general- Right beforehand you fucking said sir! Sir? Okay Motherfucker take it outside. You won't call me sir again. I will show you a fucking sir. I apologize motherfucker Kickin stuff. I need your corporate number because we're gonna talk call them and talk about how is misgendered several times in his store? I Need your corporate number now

2:23:00 out Yes, yeah it's sad. It really is because look when I was growing up 13 14 15 I had weird hair and I looked like a girl and what happened often someone say how's your what's your daughter's name or what do you say young lady? And it's uncomfortable and sucks but didn't go nuts! Like okay accidents happen this way needs to work both ways

2:23:46 And that's clearly not. And I think somehow we have this... What is the word i'm looking for? You know, this righteousness like I have the right of the right hostility while it is hostile It's almost looking for trouble So then there's a boy you don't look like a girl period from the sounds of it would just go with that doesn't really know and you want to be called just because you got some hoop earrings on nowadays doesn't mean your debt you're a woman or trans radio guys wear those at least around here. And so you go in there and then you just want trouble, why don't they just get the police or the security guard throw the guy out? I don't think she was looking for trouble this was really a triggering this was a complete triggering

2:24:32 It's not going in looking for trouble, it's just... but you have to... Call me ma'am and I'll call you a douchebag. That would have been better! Now the next one which interestingly also involves the term i'm gonna call corporate which is..I think that's a new thing they we have so many noodle boy type operations that everything's a chain and will call corporate on you seems like the threat du jour but this happens in a vape shop This is different what happens here is a guy comes in Baseball hat big hoodie with Trump Trump on it and not even like an official thing that you've seen but just big Big letters Trump red white and blue, and he comes in. He's looking for some vape juice And or ejuice as I would call it and the guy behind the counter is

2:25:23 I've seen, this is just a piece of the video. You know he's okay i'm gonna get this for you but then he sees this guy's wearing a Trump sweater and he refuses to serve him and wants him to leave And here's what ensues Here we are at Exhale Vapor City in Tucker Georgia and I have just been asked to leave the store He greeted me, that was nice. I did find the item that i wanted and the next thing he said was that he'd like for you to leave If you do not stop recording in my store... ...I'm going to call the police and ask you to leave now Please call the poli- That would be awesome! That would be awesome! We can call Fox 5 and all sorts of stuff! I'd like to purchase something here! And please do call your boss because I will be calling corporate Go for it! I am looking forward to releasing this video Because I just want to purchase something from you Fuck off! You fuck off!

2:26:15 So this is the guy behind the counter. He absolutely goes insane, he cannot separate... He just can't separate anything in his head from what's in front of him and he believes that this guy embodies evil Trump and everything evil about him. I'm not a racist. He's wearing some Trump bullshit, got some racist bullshit on him and said shit. I already-I don't fucking... I'm not serving anyone that has to do with that fucker! And he's treasonous asshole! I don't have a problem with you sir whatsoever. Alright see cuz... Okay here is where we're at! Leave the store!

2:27:11 Dude, go ahead take another swing at it. Make contact with me one more time I'm gonna make a deal with you i want to purchase that vape juice if you sell it to me I won't call the police what you did was assaulted me what I need is that for my wife If you sell it to me I won't call the fucking cops and press charges on you for assault! I won't call corporate and get you fired just sell me the fucking product so I can leave fuck out of here dude oh my fuck God bless America, capitalism wins again. Fuck your capitalism! Fuck your fucking president! He's a racist stupid piece of shit! You're a racist stupid piece of shit! Just ring this shit up! Fuck off! Man fuck get out! Call the cops! No sell it to me! Sell it to me punk! It's your job and freedom sell me the shit! Fuck you can make that up! No no no! Sell it to me! Sell it to me! Fuck off! Come on! Get out! Help your customer!

2:28:16 Oh, man! This, now we're laughing but I find it very sad. This guy is insane he's been made crazy! He's been made crazy by the mainstream media yes let's just tell like it is well CNN and NBC and Fox put them all in there nuts and the schools well thank you for leading into my third and final clip this is an open Madison Board of Education session where everyone gets five minutes, you can come up and say whatever you want to the board. It's kind of like a town hall and our next speaker is in a university educator and she's going to educate us on white liberalism. Hi all so I'm an educator at the University and recently I've been teaching my students about the connection between white liberalism and white supremacy and i'd like to offer just some working definitions here

2:29:17 So that we've been coming up together with my students. What is white liberalism? White liberalism means valuing law and order and protocol above the lives of people In this room, we see white liberalism –and this is just from my student's reflections– embodied through the timer The please finish up, the numbers, the sign-up process, the stage and the barrier. All of these signs suggest that the law and decorum and civility in this conversation is actually more important than what is being said. Another aspect of white liberalism is policing people's tones of voice

2:29:59 The obsession with civility, refusing to hear black and brown people when they aren't following white cultural norms of communication. For young people speaking today to you what they're saying is a matter of life and death I'm not sure what it means to you but i imagine its a combination between a sense of duty being able to put a line on the resume feeling like someone needs to take charge And feeling like your'e the best person for the job And that's actually where the connection lands between white liberalism and white supremacy. Get ready! Because it is by maintaining law and order, and by maintaining civility, by keeping your front lawn nice and tidy

2:30:44 all are welcome in our communities sign on your front lawn. You are denying the fact that, all the while you are with the other hand passing money to a deadly institution that polices with great disparity and causes tragic, tragic harm to the communities that are our neighbors and the communities that we actually should be building forward with So, telling black and brown people to please wrap up suggests that their voices, their pain and their stories are less important than the rules. And that in of itself is where white liberalism turns into white supremacy. It's because white supremacy is the accumulation of these aggressive messages that say stay off the grass, mow your lawn, act respectable pull your pants up right?

2:31:33 So if I was to raise my voice and start using, God forbid some swear words to you. I don't believe that it would be received in quite the same way as it would be If a black or brown youth were using those swear words so here's what I have to say Fuck white liberalism and fuck white supremacy There ya go now you understand Now you understand why our children are going insane This is teaching them this is teaching them Yeah yeah By the way, people are all over the place. By the way it was Bill Cosby a black man who said pull your pants up but he's a victim of white supremacy. This woman I like know what school it was that she teaches at she was she white? Yes course! Okay hello makes sense. Hello wouldn't make any sense if she wasn't

2:32:32 But, I mean to say keep off my lawn that is white supremacy now. Yeah well your lawn is white supremacy Don't mow your lawn! And meanwhile, from the same people who will give you this in packaged form I'm talking about Vice. The Vice is... first of all they're an advertising agency now then you know they're not really a news outlet but if anything they are a very left-leaning news outlet and they skew a lot of things and i find them very untrustworthy. They artificially create situations so they have series on YouTube which I don't understand. Well, I understand what it is but no actually you don't it's called kids telling dirty jokes and they take five and six year olds and they have them tell dirty jokes and it's hilarious they think! And it's a series and its on YouTube as half-a-million views It's a series. This is child abuse why not just have kids smoking? Are you ready for it? Do you want to hear this

2:33:32 Sure, I'll hear one or two of them. I don't want to hear the whole series It's only 30 seconds Oh six year old girl What Swallow the leader. How do you pick up a Jewish girl? Go to Auschwitz with a dustpan. Do you get an un-pregnant? Dress her as an older boy Why did Hitler kill hisself?

2:34:12 Because the jews sent him a gas bill. And this is on YouTube! It's a future Sarah Silverman. Yeah, it shouldn't be on YouTube. YouTube should be... that should take be taken off immediately. Deplatform Vice immediately! Immediately! They won't do it because there's another liberal operation. This whole thing's a scam. But this is child abuse you can't do this to children No no it's horrible I'm speechless over this. Apparently, yes! Yeah...I mean there's a lot of things you can do anyway look my kid is gonna be kind of okay yeah should be alright but your kids may not be so look out start in 2019 thinking about what's happening with your kids. Yeah and especially if they're going to public schools any school doesn't even have any school it gets worse the whole thing is ridiculous

2:35:08 I mean the schools of... we talk about how the whole school system in the United States has just fallen to crap and it's because people like that woman. these imaginary hobgoblins out there, white supremacy. And it's a rule you wanna mow your lawn as white supremacy black people like a clean lawn? Oh no the only reason they do that is because of white supremacy A normal black person this is really insulting to blacks by the way Yes! Of course it is! A real normal black person can't speak without cussing doesn't want to do their lawn they live in hovels because that's the way they like it They're just a bunch of bums

2:35:46 It's so racist and so wrong, just wrong. And we're just two voices blowing in the wind! I don't... That to me is like there should be congressional hearings over what's happening here. There should be something. All right well uh i think we're wrapping 2018. I don't know if i have anything else on my where's my- I have some throwaways. Uh, throw one away. Okay I'll throw two away uh one is a cyber attack that took place

2:36:24 Big news times in several other newspapers across the country fell victim to a cyber attack The attack caused printing and delivery problems which led to delivery delays today The LA Times reports a suspected virus from outside. The u.s Is what caused the problems? The newspaper says the cyber attack created issues for all publications within its former parent company Tribune Publishing as well As some papers printed at an LA Times plant No attack from outside the US Like how they phrase that yes I guess they're trying to say the Russians are trying to now stop our newspapers from being printed really well, I guess which is somehow going to stop our world from turning Sounds like a whole thing. It's just a glitch if you ask me yeah sounds to me like someone messed up You know I'm just waiting for one thing to happen

2:37:19 And it will happen. Then it's either going to be with Apple or it's going to be with Microsoft would even more fun, but someone is gonna get in and mess with the updates Once someone gets into the update, if you can get into the update sequence that's going to be a lot of fun. Yes but the code you have to implant has to have a...has to be timed so it doesn't start crashing machines right away because they don't do all the updates in one minute Exactly we don't want Mary Jo Foley figuring out about a 30 day cycle Yeah Well no he has to be shorter cause they might discover it in time Right Maybe like 4 days 3 day thing Start updating and then three days later they'll start going off

2:38:00 I do have one last little thing from Hallie Jackson because I thought it was funny her phraseology. This is the Hallie Jackson Trump politicizing border deaths. For the first time, President Trump is acknowledging the death of two migrant children in government custody but he's blaming Democrats, politicizing the loss of life tweeting that the deaths of children or others at the border is strictly the fault of the democrats and their pathetic immigration policies Really? Well he sent a tweet out bitchin' about something but the thing is

2:38:38 She makes it sound as though this issue has not been politicized until Trump came along. Well, yeah Yeah Alright alright well then I just need a good one-liner so you had the little girl telling jokes You couldn't understand her where she said and then these guys giggling over that was sick You must just be poking her with a stick You didn't hear what she says? He couldn't hear her jokes that I could only hear a couple of them. They were not good Um... I have stuff that is- well, this'll just be one last one. Nah! What do you want? Do you want the- It's the end of 2018 season Okay we end the 2018 season with a future for our children Bill Peacock built his San Francisco dog walking business through a series of branding shticks Most of them cowboy themed Hi there, i'm William Peacock

2:39:34 Wild Bill Peacock, the dog wrangler aka The cowboy poop fairy princess. After more than 15 years in the business bill now has competition from on-demand walking services This is your dog he needs a walk while you're at work today That's where Wag comes in. At Rover dot com, we're the dog care second only to you dog people... The success of on-demand services like Uber and Lyft has investors pouring millions of dollars into these pet apps. Wag alone recently got 300 million dollars from Saudi Arabian investors These companies run the typical gig model hiring contractors who are paid per walk and ordered on a phone They take single dogs for 30 to 60 minute on leash walks I see them

2:40:17 Bill does not send his human clients videos of their dogs. But a few years ago, he tried to grow his business with the same kind of contractor model that the app companies use Six vehicles with steer horns on the roof. Then he says some of his workers complained to California's Labor Department like many gig workers they felt there were employees not contractors which means they should get overtime paid breaks and protections like workers comp Bill says he couldn't provide that They fined us $18,000 and we got hammered and it folded the business And we were you know The kind of business America supposedly wants

2:40:59 Husband and wife. Well, the independent contractor model backfired on Bill it's helping WAG and Rover expand into cities around the country They've been able to shield themselves from the kind of problems bill ran into by making their workers sign mandatory arbitration agreements Standard practice in the gig world these obligate the employees to handle complaints behind closed doors There you go! Well Jay has done some work for WAG for her little book on dog walking Yeah And the stories are pretty horrendous. It's the future! You sign away your arbitration? That's right, everybody Let's try to be better in 2019, shall we? Not gonna happen Nah, probably not But we will see you and the entire Value for Value network in just a few days' time Show 1100 on deck Happy New Year to you, John

All life on earth was my freshman year of college when I took a sustainability class. Ha ha ha. All life. Now there's a name for what she's feeling and Laura started working on the 10-step program. Things like mass shootings and climate change grown at home in our energy system, large government investment. It's like winterizing homes gradualism. Winterizing homes farm our lawns as needed.

2:43:44 I hope climate grief can farm our lawns and develop awareness of brain patterns. But, um... Yeah! Listen to the question again. One, accept the problem. What exactly is climate grief? Climate grief is the gut punch that you feel when you realize that your imagined future may not exist anymore. You have to accept that your joints show up. Transition. Nine, show up and just transform our energy system. Show up where hogs
