About this episode

Texas Representative Will Hurd and House Democrats like James Clyburn are championing a smart wall as a high-tech alternative to physical border barriers. This proposal utilizes fiber optic sensing cables to monitor the 2,000-mile border while simultaneously providing rural high-speed internet. Critics argue the plan serves as a permanent maintenance contract for Silicon Valley firms rather than a security solution, even as Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Trump remain deadlocked over the government shutdown.

In Venezuela, Vice President Mike Pence and Juan Guaidó coordinated a challenge to the Maduro regime, leading the United States to recognize Guaidó as the interim president. This rapid diplomatic shift highlights the strategic importance of Venezuela’s oil reserves, which currently surpass those of Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Arizona Representative Gail Griffin introduced House Bill 2444, a controversial measure to tax porn-blocking software to fund border security. In the media sphere, Google Chrome announced API changes that threaten third-party ad blockers, prompting a surge in hardware-based solutions like Pi-hole.

John Dvorak officially loses a five-dollar bet to Adam Curry following the Black Panther Oscar nomination, which Dvorak attributes to Academy politics. The peerage expands with the knighting of Sir Dirt Farmer of Western Illinois and Sir Dude Named Muhammad of the Two Seas. Between Super Bowl LIII predictions and the goat karma experiment, the show explores why Californians are fleeing to Idaho and Texas.

Covington Catholic High School, Nathan Phillips Viral Video Controversy

A viral video involving students from Covington Catholic High School and Native American elder Nathan Phillips sparked national outrage and accusations of racism. Initial media reports focused on the students wearing MAGA hats, but subsequent footage provided context that challenged the original narrative. Twitter suspended the account that first amplified the video, while several media figures issued apologies for rush-to-judgment commentary.

04:14 We learned that if you see a white dude in a MAGA hat, everybody thinks racist A-hole jackass. That's really quite incredible...that's the news to me! That is really something. I saw some people, one guy's Twitter feed it said red hat equals racist! Well let's listen to Angela Rye former gopher for the... Well wait before we do this well let's give you a give the background to what we're talking about okay although i think the whole world might know this no maybe not that's possible though

04:53 I'm waiting for you to give the background. You're doing the piece! The background is a piece of video went viral on Twitter, that part will be discussed in a little bit And it was of a bunch of kids, Catholic kids from Kentucky. So we got white, Catholic South and the couple were wearing red MAGA hats make America great again hats and they're waiting for their bus after they attended the pro-life march there were pro choice in pro life marches all about abortion and what we saw on video was these guys surrounding

05:34 An American Indian, which is how they prefer to be called. There seems to be some confusion in the M5M. American Indian is the preferred way to identify them... who was banging his drum and it looked like they were intimidating him and smirking at him which is as we know a George Orwell 1984 face crime is what he called that so his face crime was taking place And for some reason, Twitter has become the editor-in-chief for the cable news which then quickly spilled over into all news and it was just like everyone was freaking out. And I gotta tell you...I looked at it and went uh wow but also at the same time went why is this news? Why is this now top...you know I know the answer of course is Orange Man Bad

06:23 Yeah, but wow and then it quickly turned out to be just a piece of videotape without the context and what was really going on. And mainstream... A lot of people apologized said oh wow man I'm sorry I tweeted all these horrible things about these a-holes because Lot of blue check marks on Twitter were saying pretty you know hateful harmful thing well harmful can't say that but hateful things and Calling for them to be doxed which they were and call them to be thrown in wood chippers, and all kinds of stuff And that outrage Quickly had to turn to apologies actually the one that I

07:03 The person who I was most disappointed in because you could think, alright. I thought it too like wow these guys are dicks. I don't know if racist came to mind right away but just dicks teenage dicks Kara Swisher she's vile she's really really really vile and her apology was just half-hearted It's like oh well Just I've lost so much caught up in the other one before that right yeah, and I've lost respect for her well I mean if she's gonna jump on every thing that does not proven uh-huh But then just puts it get your Photoshop out people. We're gonna have some fun so instead of really apologizing The mainstream was kind of looking for ways out And you know there's other stuff that surface is a second time in a row yep each time the day after our show yeah

07:53 We're ramped up and then ramped down like within 24 hours because of the it's a borderline hoax. Well, CNN as reported by or actually mentioned by NPR in this just this last little bit of a 45-minute conversation about it said this. Well Robbie Suave associate editor at Reason.com thank you so very much and we've got a little bit of news here that Native American elder Nathan Phillips says he will meet with students at Covington Catholic High School So that just happening and by the way Twitter according to CNN's reporting Twitter has also suspended the original Twitter account That helped this video go viral It looks like it was being amplified by a network of other anonymous accounts And one analyst says we're all conditioned to react and engage or deny in specific ways, and we all did

08:48 Basically say I you know we can always blame it on the Russians for trying to sell discord discord because Russian bots they didn't say Russian, but that's coming. Oh they amplified it and we fell forward in the news is anything but culpable But of course they are because that is what the machine is. We've looked at this many times, the machine is something trends on Twitter, journos, libjoes just sitting around all day trolling there's something going on now. Hey can I use your video on the saw? And then before you know it... Timecode! Outrage ensues now

Red MAGA Hats, Angela Rye Triggered by Political Symbols

Commentator Angela Rye expressed being "triggered" by the sight of red Make America Great Again hats, suggesting the symbol represents policies that compromise friendships. The discussion posits that the media has successfully branded the color red and the MAGA hat as inherently racist. Comparisons are made to red souvenir hats from the Great Wall of China to illustrate the broad association of the color with controversial political themes.

09:25 What's interesting is that after they got over their non-apology, the M5M is just sitting around going like well there are some real issues and you know let's just be honest. You see red hats it's you know that's just a sign of racist so here's Angela Rye A former gopher for the Congressional Black Caucus. Well, and not only is it hard to believe it's hard to accept I wish that for one moment right we can talk about what we see because people are talking about well you know what is happening right now as a result of what happened in this particular incident is our varying perspectives and I think that such a powerful point like Our varying perspectives? Okay Like forget Donald Trump for a moment Hold on second how was the very-

10:07 But she says, this is a powerful point. The varying perspectives are powerful. How is that a point? How's that a powerful point? A point is where you just made a point, but just varying perspectives is not a point. It's a thing! It is our varying perspectives and I think that such a powerful point like forget Donald Trump for a moment and just think about the symbol of that red hat when I see the Make America Great Again Hat now Chris I am triggered. I'm so triggered Andre I think in a lot of ways our friendship has been compromised by

10:44 that that his policies represent. And until we can have common ground and understanding about that, it's that triggering? We're going to continue to have problems! So you've got to untrigger me otherwise you can't wear the hat because I'm triggered! Triggered. Wow. It is wow because what has happened here is the media

11:30 Has really helped shape this vision that oh the media is responsible for the whole thing It's really well done by the way golf clap. Well, I don't know Do it that in a way they did but I think it's a better outcome than they ever could have expected That I agree with but man now you mean and there's others now you really got to look at all sides of everything and Yeah, well I don't want to do it now. We'll get into AOC later you know of course went viral with her being an idiot so everyone said about only 12 years left to live but you know if you take things out of context without what is said before and after then you kind of miss what's going on And that's really our show has been about this but its gotten very difficult

12:19 I fell for this. I fell for these kids, not in a good way. I fell for it like oh man...I wasn't thinking racist or just jagoffs yeah what else? Why are they wearing the hats that's too bad and there you have it red is racist anymore Red is racist So now when you go to the Great Wall of China And you buy the Great Wall caps that are sold at vending stands, souvenir shops. That's racist! Everywhere up and down the Great Wall everywhere you go and it's a big red hat It has got a little bigger brim than Trump had Yeah... And it says Great Wall or China or something on it but its a red hat Racist Now it is going to be triggering The China Great Wall China Hat Is gonna be triggering people Because it's racist It's because walls are racist

13:10 So they're trying to now that disassociation thing again, we've got red. Red hat red states. Yes Republican and orange man bad. That's right. A derivative of red association to make people just resist luckily you know the not everybody thinks that Republicans have anything to do with the color red but a lot of people do yeah it's just very sad The news, what they call news media is doing this. They're lazy It's all they do... I guess it's beyond lazy. It's not lazy! Look at a Twitter feed. It's what the job has become Yeah pretty much Who's watching the Twitter feed? Anything happen? I know man i'm following all my usuals

14:02 Well, I didn't fall for it. What did you see when you first saw it? I just didn't pay any attention to it. I ignored it. It looked like another piece of crap that I didn't want to get involved with Yeah so...I had the basic same fee although I really felt like oh geez but at the same time was like who cares! It's like surprise surprise there are a-holes in the world why is this all over the place and that that's the thing that they should be embarrassed about Well, there's no that's a thing they should be embarrassed about but also it doesn't matter because in a year from now you will hear someone on the news talking about the native Native Indian man Vietnam vet who was hounded by those MAGA hat kids. No one'll know this is true What you said? That's that's the sick part what you just said yeah is absolutely true They're gonna make it into reality we had

CHAPTER 04 / 39 Discussion

Hillbot Psychology, Rachel Maddow and Media Cocooning

An anecdote about a visitor from Florida illustrates the "Hillbot" archetype—individuals deeply committed to mainstream liberal media narratives. The discussion references Jacques Ellul’s book "Propaganda," arguing that modern media creates "cocoons" or echo chambers that isolate individuals from opposing viewpoints. This isolation allows propaganda to remain effective by preventing exposure to contradictory facts.

hillbot· rachel maddow· jacques ellul· propaganda· media consumption· cocooning

14:56 Over the weekend, one of Tina's friends from Florida who you would know as The Hill Bot from Florida. When we were down there and this is what a year and half ago I think? And it got into big argument with her maybe was two years ago Yeah, so she came to stay. I gotta tell you she is so tired of everything and she's...I mean she post last time was on Facebook almost a year ago She would drive by Mar-a-Lago You know do a selfie flipping off Mar-a-Lago? I mean this kind of hillbot Wow. Yeah, oh yeah how juvenile in fact now but she was so open to talking with me about stuff and so willing To learn because I could tell she's really really tired Yes Because the system of I don't know lies and propaganda let's say by Generated by the mainstream media is short-circuits people it just doesn't make sense when you

15:53 absorb enough of it you're confused because none of this makes sense at all. And she's very smart so I think she unconsciously... You think you got her there? Subconsciously, let me just tell you how to identify a true hillbot This only works for women and i tried out and was right what you gotta say is Let me ask you Do you watch Rachel Maddow And you know the answer is like, oh yes. And before they can say I love Rachel, just say hey if you were a lesbian and the first thing she says is I'd do her! I'd marry her! That's the true hillbot It's universal Yes it's universal The Obots in Austin used to say that too Anyway so she had only seen the picture and hadn't heard that it was fake because

16:51 keyed into her own sources I guess. So there's an example of someone who might not have known that, you know because this passes by in 48 hours or something else going on we forget about it but for her it would have stayed that way and I said when he saw the picture what do you think? Bunch of a-holes! And said let me let me guess when you heard they were Catholic she said wow that's really sad you said that and immediate my first response was oh horrible, you know crazy religious racist a-holes and she caught herself anyway for me it was it was really encouraging that there are some people who are just so tired of it, so burnt out from what the system is doing to them that they seem to be willing to listen and learn. Some might come out of it though The problem is there's a good study one of the best books on propaganda It's not about how to do it or how even how it works necessarily but the mechanism

17:49 cocooning that is required. This is an old book, it's written by the sociologist, the French sociologist Jacques Elluel and Jacques Elluel one of his great books is called Propaganda and if anyone can get a copy of it It was a major...it was a major book when I came out Do you know that this is one of the first no agenda books discussed on the show? Could be Like 10-11 years ago Yeah, it's a we kind of forgot about it but it's the class. It's just a good time to remind people Yes indeed anyway so what he asserts in the book and among other things is a great book to read this is well written and has got a style that is very Singular to this guy he really starts bringing things together at the end against very exciting. It's almost like I'd really done The chase scene in a movie script Anyway, he

18:43 asserts that the only way it works at all is that you have to be have people in isolation. They have to be in isolation, the best example of a situation where propaganda would work very well and people just believe whatever you tell them is North Korea because they don't really have any other sources of information And generally speaking, he was I think hinting that in Western society we don't really have that problem because we have all these different sources. But as we've witnessed during the 10 years of this show with Eleven We've witnessed that's not true anymore because the people because thanks to the internet and the idea well I'm only gonna give you the news You want to hear right that notion which was right at the beginning of the Internet? we're only going to give you the news you want all this stuff if you're interested in yep, that is the process began the process of isolating people so they were only hearing in their own little group they hear only the whatever there red grouper blue group or whatever group it is a

19:41 It listens to the right wing has been shown to have a little more leeway of maybe going out and watching Rachel Maddow, for example. Mostly so they can complain. But it's really the Algos that do it of course. Yes yes yeah It is Algos but the left doesn't do that and you talk to them They read The New York Times, they listen to CNBC CNN And you hear it when they're doing interviews of men on the street. They say, well I don't like any of this that's going on what's your source of news? New York Times Washington Post NBC CNN and then that's it! Oh I would never watch Fox oh I would never listen to Rush Limbaugh how can you... I won't even watch the president's speech

20:35 Yeah, exactly. That kind of stuff. You know it was fun because I laid my North Korea stuff on her Because I had some good backup. I said, well you know who my uncle is and here's what he told me about North Korea and how many times he has been there and how they just want... They don't want armistice they want to be a end of the war with South Korea just please let them be in full country and then Don's quote which was Dennis Rodman knows more about North Korea than anyone in the administration which was Obama administration at that time And I gave that all to her she's like wow Mm-hmm. I said yes it because she has in his mind in her mind only and she and even though she would be Understand and and had and her views were changing She could not stop herself from calling him that idiot or the moron or the moronic orange Trump? But I mean that just kept slipping out It was very very interesting Thank goodness, cuz it could have been a very bad weekend

21:35 Oh, you're trying to save the weekend. Uh no it's uh I like her it's just you know she's a little... Is she hot? She's a New York Jew that has nothing do with being hot but.. I won't even bother I don't usually say ask that but you always do that to me so I thought I'd do it to you considering she's a friend of your wife or would be will be let's put it this way she says she gives mediocre blowjobs She's pretty cool. Long story, anyway she's cool she's cool but she remembered because he had listened to the show after I met her last time said you called me a hillbot see but your eyes yeah i am okay so just admitting it was good yeah yes that should be back at her cocoon and that'll be the end of work well if you come to the wedding she's going to be there

CHAPTER 05 / 39 Discussion

Will Hurd, Fiber Optic Border Security Proposal

Texas Representative Will Hurd, a former CIA officer, proposed a "smart wall" utilizing fiber optic sensing cables instead of a physical concrete barrier. Hurd suggests that laying fiber along the 2,000-mile border could provide both security surveillance and high-speed internet access to rural communities. Critics argue that a technology-based wall creates a permanent maintenance contract for Silicon Valley firms.

22:32 You can introduce me as the hillbot from Florida. Okay, she'll buy that right away She knows who you are you're famous I'm famous Onward yes for the red hat kiss The president just to get some of this on any clips about that about what? The Red Hat kid I don't need it We've been killed with clips It's just the the for me the importance is red is racist That symbol is racist And media is off their rocker and liars, and can't even apologize. Oh by the way there will be some lawsuits! Oh yeah the kids? That one kid in particular who was taken to task by one of the women on today's show? Mm-hmm oh he's gonna they're gonna take their money Did you know that when your federal employee certainly representatives they can say whatever they want

23:33 About you to you in the media anywhere. They want and they have complete immunity I believe that know that yeah, it was like some act from Sevens or something for being ground up in court. Yeah, it's a practical law It is a practical law but there should be some limits Somewhere well That's not gonna happen Most of them guys are The limits are that if you're that bad that you'd get sued to death because your limbs You're gonna get voted out now except in Berkeley. So the president took, so the president took, so the president took the high road this morning and said okay Nancy I'll do the State of the Union when the government is open again which is kind of unexpected I like that tactic

24:28 He must be expecting the government to be open again pretty soon. I think it will be and Last night, I've been busy. I was on my way to a dinner with the former New York banker and On LBJ or whatever it was Will Hurd came on and he was talking about and that he's a Republican Republican congressman from Texas And he he's the He claims to be I don't know his Wikipedia page says that he's a former CIA covert operative And he's bad guy, and he loves talking about himself as I think it part of that's in this clip now. I couldn't get the clip From LBJ and looked everywhere, and it was just I guess there was no recording I was in the car so I couldn't have recorded it But he said something about how this would happen will be something would be passed in the Senate and then

25:22 Something else would have to pass in the house upon condition that Nancy Pelosi would bring the Senate bill to the floor And then heard said they have enough votes. I wish I had the clip so like I'm just Butchering it, I'm sure but he sounds very confident that there was going to be this This process partly just alleged you know a protocol how things work and also because it has to end and Let's see, where is he? Here he is on Fox with Dana Perino. It was just before the interview that I heard. Let me see... Is this it?

26:06 Damn, I set that up so nicely and where the hell is my well this is a lot of the setup to be a flop Well, I don't know if this is the clip that I was thinking of but this is one of them. I would love to lay a fiber-optic cable from C2 shining see now This is important because we'll heard is Also after he left the service He became a Silicon Valley guy And so he's very deep with Silicon Valley and sure, and he I don't know where to cash in on this. That's the point we made last show Well of course because if you have an electronic wall which is what he's going for here Yeah until somebody throws off the switch then the hordes come running in but anyway go on I'm sorry well If you have the electronic wall

26:47 It's not just a thing of concrete that just stands there. No, it needs upgrades and updates... Maintenance plan! And it's perfect and now he's talking about fiber optic from C to shining sea in your point is well made you know one fiber cut And you have nothing from sea to shining sea, but okay. But it's an interesting idea listen to what he says I would love to lay a fiber optic cable from C2 shining see it's either sensing tools that can be used off of the fiber optic cable and then guess what some in the rural communities along the border

27:24 that don't have access to really high-speed internet would be able to tap into, and you could allow kids in schools in the city of Presidio to have access to high speed internet. So this would be an underground fiber optic wall? It's one tool right a fiber optic sensing can help you identify somebody coming across the border I don't hear you saying wall so I just want to be really clear You do not think a wall is the solution here as the president does Well, a wall from sea to shining sea is the most expensive and least effective way to do border security. US 200 miles! A barrier in some places does make sense where there's urban-to-urban contact right? But it's not along all 2 000 miles of the border and there's probably only a handful of miles where something like that is needed Yeah I guess I didn't clip that one particular thing where he

CHAPTER 06 / 39 Discussion

Nancy Pelosi, State of the Union Cancellation

Speaker Nancy Pelosi requested President Trump postpone the State of the Union address due to security concerns during the government shutdown. Trump responded by accusing Pelosi of being afraid of the truth. Meanwhile, House Democrats like James Clyburn suggested allocating $5.7 billion for "smart wall" technology and immigration judges rather than physical wall construction.

nancy pelosi· state of the union· government shutdown· james clyburn· smart wall

28:17 He went into this a little, you know, went into his background a little bit deeper. But I think we'll see a combo deal. You'll see wall you'll see he's got Trump has got to give into Silicon Valley a little bit. He's got to and it makes sense and I love this well if you string this fiber out in the desert then kids can have burst fast internet Not quite sure how that works. They talk about the children of Gila monster? I don't know, I don't know But I think you're... Well, here. Here i have a clip from PBS that's kind of in the same direction and we'll play it this is Pelosi shutdown now yes when I wrote to him the second time to say since government has shut down let's work together on mutually agreeable date and we can welcome you to the Capitol to get rid of state of the union address Government is still shut down I still make the offer The State Of The Union speech

29:16 been cancelled by Nancy Pelosi because she doesn't want to hear the truth. She doesn't want the American public to hear what's going on and she is afraid of the truth, and the super left Democrats, the radical Democrats, what is going on in that party are shocking Amid the sparring over the State of the Union, there were faint signs a possible movement on ending the shutdown. Several top House Democrats suggested that they might offer up to $5.7 billion for border security, but not for a wall. The number three House Democrat James Clyburn said the money would pay for immigration judges, border agents and technology.

30:00 I think that it can be done using the figure that the president has put on the table. If his $5.7 billion is about border security, then we see ourselves fulfilling that request only doing what I like to call using a smart wall. Smart wall! This guy doesn't know how to turn a computer on A smart wall He's talking about a smart wall Yeah, well that's what Hurd is pushing for sure

30:37 And somebody dropped that term into the public domain. Yeah, smart wall some some how about we need a different way to do it differently needed if we need like I wall I wall or rule WLL, you know drop a drop a consonant. We need something better than smart wall E wall E wall E wall mmm sounds like Mr.. E walls here electrified wall e wall oh Wall of death. Now you're talking! Wall of Death, that's the one. You know Austin is a very odd place in Texas

Austin Alley Wall, Red River Cultural District Fence

Business owners in Austin's Red River Cultural District successfully petitioned the city to install a 10-foot-tall fence to block off an alleyway plagued by drug use and crime. The discussion highlights the perceived hypocrisy of a liberal city like Austin opposing a national border wall while installing walls to protect local businesses from "third world" conditions in their back alleys.

austin· red river cultural district· alleyway· homelessness· hypocrisy· fencing

31:18 It being such a perceived red state. This is very liberal here Beto signs everywhere Beto on cars everywhere still up Oh, yeah The signs are up the cars have the bumper stickers everyone see there's new bumper stickers colorful bumper stickers now betto Just say it to bumper stickers Yeah I think I saw a couple even after they got ready lost. Yeah bring out more stickers Beto. Yeah So obviously if you talk to anyone here in Austin about the wall They're you know, it's you can't have a wall. It's racist its immoral just it

31:55 a whole orange man who wants this wall. With live music, good food and nightlife there's lots to bring people to the Red River Cultural District but there is one sliver of the street where the city wants to keep people out Why do people want to come out here if that's the stuff they have to deal with? Dave Machinist is part owner of The Empire Control Room His venue backs up to this alley A small stretch between Beer Land and The Sidewinder that has been a challenge for the community You can see people dealing drugs exchanging drugs for money You can see fighting, people having sex, people defecating. I mean it's terrible! It's a third world country back there." When police tried to fix the issue with lights City staff said it made the problem worse and Luke Akers of Hoboken Pie had a front row seat. The alleyway needs to be shut down. It should have been shut down over five years ago whenever we first started complaining about it because

32:46 the head of the drug and prostitution ring here in Austin. So earlier this week, the city decided on plans for a fence on either end of the alley it'll be at least 10 feet tall and the businesses on either side will have access A city spokesperson told us it's become a public safety concern There you go! Austin does not want a wall to stop illegal entry into the country but they sure want one in the alley They want a wall alley? Yes 10 feet high. Oh my, that is clip of the day for me. Hypocrites all of them I tell you hypocrites! That's a great clip. There's your Austin for ya. Well it's the same thing around here. Let's go to Arizona and find out what they're thinking there about The Wall? President Trump battles it out for his funding for The Borderwall and Arizona lawmakers unique idea to raise funds right here in our state

CHAPTER 08 / 39 Discussion

Arizona House Bill 2444, Porn Blocking Tax for Border Wall

Arizona Representative Gail Griffin introduced House Bill 2444, which would require electronics manufacturers to install porn-blocking software on all devices sold in the state. Users would have to pay a $20 fee to unblock the content, with the proceeds earmarked for border security funding. The proposal faces criticism for its technical infeasibility and potential violations of net neutrality.

gail griffin· arizona· house bill 2444· porn blocking· border security· net neutrality

33:43 is now making national headlines. Yes, so what do you think of this? We're talking about Arizona House Bill 2444 from Representative Gail Griffin she's a Republican from Hereford and it would require electronics manufacturers to install porn blocking software on all phones computers or tablets and the only way to unblock it, paying a one-time fee of at least 20 bucks. That money would be used for several purposes the biggest being border security right now the bill has not been scheduled for any committee hearings but it is getting a lot of attention vote these people out of office how does this jive with net neutrality? none of it jives with net neutrality

34:29 Yeah, oh yeah. The algos will be able to detect what's porn. No! What could possibly go wrong? That- that's why they vote these people out. They're stupid Yes Not stupid for not knowing what they're talking about but for doing that they're stupid Don't... Let's see..what other heart strings can we tug Oh yes, Don Lamon Overnight sensation. No you're your favorite yes, Don Yes he of course understands the plight with a plight of the 800,000 who are furloughed and

CHAPTER 09 / 39 Discussion

Government Shutdown Impact, TSA Salaries and Challenge Coins

CNN's Don Lemon discussed the financial pain of furloughed federal workers, while reports surfaced of Secret Service agents distributing challenge coins expressing frustration with the shutdown. House Resolution 705 was introduced to allow the TSA to use security fees to pay officer salaries during the lapse in appropriations. Predictions suggest the shutdown will end within a week as "smart wall" terminology offers a political compromise.

35:06 standing in food lines and Just gets worse from there Don a little bit of pain So I'm gonna say that when the repo man comes is a little bit of pain Can you wait to take my car? A little bit of pain wonder how the men and women who protect this president The Secret Service how they feel about that Take a look at this these special challenge coins being distributed to eight two agents into their families pretty clearly expressing their frustration With the words on the flip side. Don't worry You'll get back pay You know who loves a challenge coin? That's the president. He keeps a bunch of them in the Oval Office Wonder if he'll add this newest one to that collection I sure want one! Get me one of those challenge coins, they sound great! Sounds fantastic! Very very good. He does it has a whole stand filled with the challenge coins Well i've got

36:03 An interesting, very interesting piece on the shutdown by that woman Elcindor. Who is this? That's the PBS black woman at Eiffel's place. Yes yes yes The Gwen...the woman who can never fill Gwen's shoes Of course not! Who can?! Right? Yep. Who knew? Someone on Twitter said, ah finally no agenda show comes clean about Gwen Ifill It's like I think we said this a couple of times, like we're really sad she's gone. Dead? Gone because it turns out... Yeah, yeah, I've been talking about for over a year! Yeah she kind of kept that whole operation in line. She was the pro which is the problem when they don't have one anymore and there's just a bunch of Millennials

36:54 You play this analysis, it's kind of interesting. Well the president doesn't want to look weak and he doesn't want to look like he is caving into Democrats Today he called Democrats dangerous and said that they are being radicalized And that they can't be trusted with border security He also used what some people saw as loaded language when talking about speaker Nancy Pelosi He said that Nancy Pelosi is dominating Chuck Schumer That would be of course Senator Chuck Schumer And then that Chuck Schumer is a puppet of Nancy Pelosi Now we see the president kind of scrambling to decide how he's going to deal with Nancy Pelosi and his strategy for her. Usually, when he has given people nicknames like Crooked Hillary for Hillary Clinton or Lying Ted for Ted Cruz but in this case he just said Nancy who I'd like to call Nancy. The other thing you know

37:36 is that the president is facing pressure from his own conservative base. There was a group of conservatives who met today with the president at the White House, and one of them was the president of The Heritage Foundation. Her husband is actually one of the people that's furloughed—a furlough worker—this is a large think tank based in Washington D.C., and she told me even though I want my husband to go back to work, I want the president not to blink." Yeah, well because it's not your job. Right. I had a few complaining letters from some- the reason that one of the places reminded me of what the clip you had where Trump or no the earlier clip that i had where trump says she the reasons she's cutting off the state of the union speech which is required by the constitution by the way yeah but It's not a speech that's required you can just send a memo yeah You could send an email

38:23 This, this grand... Tweet. Yes you can tweet the grandiosity of the State of The Union is not required according to the Constitution. It could be done in other ways but the point is that what I'm trying where I'm going it's not it's nothing do with that it's a fact that he decided they started going with these propagandistic ideas and he said in that clip Nancy doesn't want to hear the truth! Yeah Is that the reason? Because she doesn't want to hear the truth about the state of the union, I guess. I don't know what it was just a he's trying to project an image of Democrats with their hands over their ears. Yeah. I can't hear I can't hear I can't hear. Uh, I guess but it's silly there is a caught a law coming to the floor It's not even written yet but it will be House Resolution 705

39:18 to authorize the administrator of the Transportation Security Administration, to utilize the security service fee, to pay transportation security officers salaries during a lapse in appropriations for the TSA. Which is a good idea! I mean, the money's still coming in, airlines pay fees For the job that these guys they there is an actual payment for this job That's why some airports have commercial companies doing it right or TSA. They were all done by commercial So there's fees paid and the idea who put this in who put this bill in By a time I think this thing's gonna be over in the next week Kato yeah, I agree and I agree

40:01 And there's going to be some kind of... You know what? Smart wall is actually good because it still has the word wall, which would make everyone kind of happy. That's gotta be some wall. Everyone agrees on some wall and you know the border fence act which was never funded they're gonna work it out It's just what a waste of space and time Just wasting everybody's time except for cable news They loved it. Oh they gotta stay in business I don't know why they have to stay in business. They're not doing their jobs, but... Yes they are doing it! They haven't given us enough stuff on the overseas news is really getting pathetic. You want to go there now? We get nothing from these guys. Do you want to go there now overseas? Well let's start with Venezuela. Well i have seen some news about Venezuela just that's the only one so let me just what i understand happened here

CHAPTER 10 / 39 Discussion

Venezuela Political Crisis, Juan Guaido and Mike Pence

Vice President Mike Pence released a video message supporting Venezuelan opposition efforts to oust President Nicolas Maduro. Juan Guaido, head of the National Assembly, declared himself interim president, a move recognized by the United States, Canada, and several Latin American nations. Maduro responded by accusing the U.S. of orchestrating a coup and ordered American diplomats to leave the country.

venezuela· nicolas maduro· juan guaido· mike pence· coup d'etat· democracy now

40:58 Maduro who we kind of predicted in the last show for sure that when we saw it coming down coming on Broadway That's cover art of the last show included. The guy who is now usurped yes Wanna be what's his name again? Yes, totally no Guido. Yes, so you know so there was a vote guido did not win but then the observers conveniently including the United States and UN. Wait, wait, wait... Guido did win? No I thought he didn't win! Didn't win what?! I thought he didn't win the election! Guido won the election as head of the assembly. He- hmmm.... Okay, I read it differently. Maduro...? Well no there's another guy who ran against Maduro you must be thinking about somebody else well let's play these clips then we'll get to the bottom of it well the bottom line is maduro doesn't want to give up the seat that's the bottom line

41:55 Maduro won. Yeah, okay you tell me then tell me what's going on because I'm confused yeah apparently he did not win the presidential he won he's a president of their government but not at the present of the country there's something that he did not win i'm pretty sure He didn't run! He ran for what he ran for. He won what he ran for And they've did just everybody else. I got three reports on the same topic from three different angles and i want to play all three of them, they're not well a little longer than they should be but first you have democracy now which is a socialist operation as far as their concern Maduro should be running the place into the ground it's okay by them then we have PBS which tries to take kind

42:40 journalistic approach to it, they don't get anywhere. Then we have the report from CBS CIA report that just tells us what's going on now can can we just say up front that Guido if you look at his biography everything is kind of like ho-hum until you get to his master's degree at George was it Georgetown Washington DC He's our guy. Yes, he's our guy well start with Venezuela and update democracy now and listen to what they leave out the United States is continuing to ratchet up pressure on Venezuela

43:18 appears to be part of a coordinated effort to remove the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro from office. On Tuesday, Vice President Mike Pence posted a video message online telling Venezuelan opposition leaders and protesters that the U.S. supports their efforts to oust the president. Hola! I'm Mike Pence, the vice president of the United States and on behalf of President Donald Trump and all the American people Let me express the unwavering support of the United States as you, the people of Venezuela raise your voices in a call for freedom.

43:56 Nicolas Maduro is a dictator with no legitimate claim to power. Venezuelan President Maduro responded by saying he would revise diplomatic relations with the United States, saying, quote, never before has a high-level official said that the opposition should overthrow the government unquote. Venezuelan Vice President Delsi Rodriguez also responded to The Pence video. Because Mr. Pence doesn't have a job, now he wants to come and run Venezuela handing out instructions on what should happen in Venezuela tomorrow openly calling for coup d'état in Venezuela I will say it like the Venezuelan people would say it to you Yankee go home On Monday the government of President Maduro said it suppressed military revolt in the capital Caracas Maduro has accused US along with Canada and 12 Latin American allies including Brazil of plotting a

44:53 coup against his socialist government. Meanwhile, opposition groups are planning to hold major anti-Maduro protests today across Venezuela. Well it sounds like a coup to me! It is a coup and we're behind it there's no doubt about this. This is the make good because we could not get Chavez out of the office I think we just moved up one spot I think we did. We're number seven with a bullet! Now if we hear the same report on PBS, we hear a few more details in fact she never mentions Guido at all in that report because it and the previous shows she's had these experts on it says this guy is Guido guy he's uh

CHAPTER 11 / 39 Discussion

CIA Involvement in Venezuela, Oil Reserves and Geopolitics

The rapid recognition of Juan Guaido as President of Venezuela is characterized as a coordinated CIA operation. The discussion emphasizes that Venezuela holds the world's largest proven oil reserves, surpassing even Saudi Arabia. The strategic goal is perceived as securing these resources and removing the socialist influence of the Maduro regime, which has overseen a massive economic collapse.

cia· venezuela· oil reserves· citgo· juan guaido· nicolas maduro· geopolitics

45:36 Nobody knows who he is. He's an unknown, he's just some sort of guy. Somehow won the head of the assembly and became that guy and now is just familiarizing himself with people. It's reported differently on PBS. Venezuela's president Nicolas Maduro faces the most direct challenge to his nearly six years in power Today, as Nick Schifrin reports, the U.S., and more than a half-dozen other countries recognized Juan Guaido, currently the head of Venezuela's National Assembly, as the country's legitimate president On a stage in downtown Caracas, in front of a crowd of thousands, 35-year old Juan Guido raised his right hand and administered his own oath of office. I swear to formally assume the powers of the national executive as president in charge of Venezuela

46:27 Around the capital and country today, hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of Venezuelans rallied in support of Guido and called for a change in government. That is why we are here to support our National Assembly, the only legitimate power for 14 million Venezuelans. Liberation! Liberty! Nuns demanded freedom, and other protesters demanded President Nicolas Maduro step down. Your time is up and your cabinet's. Understand this, Venezuela has outgrown you. Venezuelans have protested before but this time the usually fractured opposition has a consensus leader

47:08 Until recently, Guido was relatively unknown. But he's crisscrossed the country speaking against Maduro asking for support from the international community and Venezuela's powerful military. We are not asking you to mount a coup or to shoot on the contrary we're asking you not to shoot at us and defend together with us the right of our people to be heard So that sounds very much like they got all these groups together in concert. This is a CIA operation I think this is something that they've been working on, and they're putting all their real smart guys on doing this to make it look so good. This was a real good job because the guy just slips in he pops up, he's totally likable looking Obama kind of thing but CIA knows how to run that

48:05 Yeah, he's only 35 and the guy just inaugurated himself. I mean that's good part That's a that's a coup right there yeah So now we're gonna go to our outlet CBS to hear what the how they're gonna try to spin it? I think that PBS did the best reporting on this Which we just heard very different than the Democracy Now reporting where they're just all in Well Let's just you and I are not jaded but we've just accepted as fact that's what we do. Yeah, and then we put a basis... We did a good job! It is not like these guys go broke because of us I mean they will go broke if they don't play the game right but okay Venezuela CBS hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans protested in the streets today demanding that President Nicolás Maduro step aside

49:00 35-year old Juan Guaido, the head of the National Assembly swore himself in as the new leader of the country. Journalist Virginia Lopez Glass is in Caracas. There were also videos of the National Guard throwing tear gas at protesters and also taking some protesters with them prisoners Backing the opposition, the Trump administration which today along with Canada and more than a dozen other countries officially recognized Guaido as interim president. At the White House reporters asked President Trump if he'd take military action to protect the opposition movement. Venezuela once a wealthy country with the largest proven oil reserves in the world is on the verge of economic collapse with food and medicine in short supply it has become haven for terrorists and drug traffickers

49:48 More than 3 million Venezuelans have fled into surrounding countries. Scholar Moshi Runden's family still lives there. We're talking about 300 children expected to die because of lack of food, the average Venezuelan has lost 24 pounds in the last year Maduro has long blamed the U.S for his country's problems even accusing Venezuelan and Colombian immigrants living in Florida for a failed assassination attempt last August Today, he severed diplomatic ties and ordered U.S. embassy personnel out of the country within 72 hours. The Pentagon and State Department are determining how to protect U.S. diplomats still in Venezuela. Sources tell CBS News that Guaido is now in hiding in Caracas. The next steps are unclear. Maduro still has powerful supporters including China and Russia and for now Jeff his own military

50:43 All right. Yeah, so now we have the truer picture of what Maduro did not revise, as Amy put it, revised relationships with the United States he expelled the United States is a difference seems to me yeah but we're not budging apparently well know we'd left were leaving we're trying to get out of there safely hmm we're not sticking around the embassy No no NBC's got to get out but everyone else stays Well, we know who's gonna stay. The Gladio team and they apparently then they I guess they know enough about the situation that they can take Guido as I call him, and lock him up someplace so he won't get killed

51:33 Because that's what the Maduroists, right? Oh yeah. That's what you want to do and so if you're running this show if you wanted a whoever the station chief is and these other guys that are having to do this thing they make it look like It's just natural They know enough to get this guy buried so he can crop up later as the big reigning hero after Maduro either quits or something happens. This is not over." I've been looking at Dutch news, and I'm waiting for Curacao or Bonaire... These are islands you can almost see Venezuela which are Dutch municipalities. Nothing from them! It's right off the coast

52:14 Well, they haven't been read in. Yeah well I think so far mission accomplished That's so far So good i don't think the mission is anywhere near accomplished i mean Don't forget that we went around and around with shah Caesar with uh Chavez a lot yeah And We tried to kill him A couple Times and We tried To Make Him do deals and everything he Ended Up Becoming more Powerful Than ever so it can turn The other Way He never wanted to play ball. And what is our benefit? What do we want all this for? The world's largest supply of oil... Oh, really?! Reserves! The world's largest reserves bigger than Saudi Arabia? Yeah I think we want that

53:03 Yeah, I think so. Who's in there? What companies? Is it just us or...? It's actually a... Well, Citgo is Venezuelan right doesn't that...? Yes, it's a Venezuelan company that has got gas stations all over the United States and that's all Venezuelan oil they have their own refineries. They're pretty much vertically integrated so that's fine as long as the oil comes over here but you know it's still If we could get Venezuela, and we also should just take Canada for their oil too. Yeah, Canada's at number three don't forget were number eight so they break the records. They're in our sights But the Venezuelan oil... We don't need Canada. We don't need anybody if we could get a hold of that oil Right Alright So Let's see There is something to do with this What else was going on? Oh yeah there was the two marches over the weekend The March For Life and the Women's March

CHAPTER 12 / 39 Discussion

Ben Shapiro, March for Life Baby Hitler Comments

During a speech at the March for Life, Ben Shapiro used a hypothetical scenario involving "baby Hitler" to argue the pro-life position, stating that a baby is not yet the adult criminal they might become. Shapiro delivered the speech while reading from a laptop on stage, a style choice that drew commentary. The segment also notes that Shapiro reportedly lost sponsors following the controversial remarks.

ben shapiro· march for life· baby hitler· pro-life· daily wire· abortion

54:06 Which was split up and really not... Yeah, we had some clips on the last show about the women's march. Yeah but there wasn't much to do about the marches they didn't have the scale They didn't have the right to- The March for Life so that would be the anti abortion people They had an interesting speaker Well they never get any coverage No! Well there is a reason So one of their main speakers was Ben Shapiro Now you gotta see I wish you could see the video so he's on a stage He's sitting down behind a desk with his laptop open His laptop has a big daily wire sticker on it on the lid and he's reading. He's reading From his laptop while he's onstage With this crowd and actually the crowd microphone is reading a speech from his laptops sitting down

55:02 What? Yeah, so I'm gonna play this. What a stylist! It's baffling And he also lost a couple sponsors over this speech for his radio show which is just the beginning Finally argument number 10 This one has become popular in recent years after the book Freakonomics came out that argument Is that abortion lowers the crime rate right that all what has lowered The crime rate traditionally has been killing all the would-be criminals first of all I don't know who's comfortable with the pre-crime version of humanity, where we get to decide before you're born whether you're likely to be a criminal and then abort you based on future criminal activity in which you have not participated. And the crowd is just riveted by this fantastic presentation...

55:45 The argument, I guess here is that would you kill baby Hitler? And the truth is that no pro-life person on earth would kill baby Hitler. Right because baby Hitler wasn't Hitler adult Hitler was Hitler Baby Hitler was a baby What you presumably want to do with baby Hitler was take baby Hitler out of baby Hitler's house and move baby Hitler into a better house where he would not grow up to be Hitler That's the idea Let's listen to this again. Would you kill baby Hitler? And the truth is that no pro-life person on earth would kill baby Hitler, right because baby Hitler wasn't Hitler adult Hitler was Hitler Baby Hitler was a baby and what you presumably want to do with baby Hitler was take baby Hitler out of baby Hitler's house and move maybe hitler into A better house where he would not grow up to be Hitler dude Yeah, he's off the rails. He is off the rail I just like baby Hitler did it baby. He'll ever be there dude No

CHAPTER 13 / 39 Discussion

Google Chrome Extension API, Pi-hole Ad Blocking

Google announced changes to its extension API that will effectively disable many third-party ad blockers in the Chrome browser. In response, users are turning to hardware-based solutions like Pi-hole, a network-wide ad blocker running on Raspberry Pi. The move is seen as Google protecting its core advertising business as Microsoft Edge also transitions to the Chromium engine.

google chrome· ad blocking· pi-hole· raspberry pi· chromium· brave browser

56:37 He'll be too much coffee. Too much coffee, Ben! Go to decaffeinate it. He's gonna be deplatformed. It's gonna happen. Oh yeah. They got their own platform and they don't have to worry about it. Okay coming up I have... let me see.. I'm sorry were you gonna say something? No I just realized something just I'm sorry I mumbled One interesting piece of news for people who believe they can monetize the network which here you go. Yeah It's just a shorty though I love it after years and years and years of And I'm looking at every single developer like Google so great They're really making the best browser yet chrome chrome chrome chrome chrome. Oh, yeah everything works with Chrome Yeah, Google knows what they're doing this is smart. Yeah well here we are

57:28 Google announced they are changing the extension API which for all intents and purposes will make ad blocking impossible with third-party ad blockers. Specifically, it's the one that I was using Adblock Pro. No, no! Oh no. UBlock Origin is probably one of the better ones... No actually adblock pro will- I know it's corrupt But they will be allowed to continue to function but of course they allow ads through for a fee

58:05 So now we're in the situation that just when Microsoft, as an aside announced that they were moving to Chromium engine on the back end for their Edge browser Google is really clamping down and everybody's like oh what? Google is an ad agency. This is what we warned you of and here it is, actually there's a thread with Brendan Eich from Brave so the Brave browser will obviously be able to combat this change because they have other systems in there A lot of noise about everyone going back to Firefox which I doubt In fact... I've been using Firefox but never went to Chrome I always thought it was crumb

58:53 No, I'm pretty sure that everyone just go. Oh okay And they'll take the ad block Pro and everyone will just move on their merry way Except right except people like me I installed my piehole yesterday based on this news I have to tell you this is what is my pie hole? My pie hole Pihole This is I think we've talked about it before It's you get a raspberry pie pronounce that holy P Holy yeah, well there's a hyphen pie hole pie. Holy So you so you get a raspberry pie very inexpensive? You know like what is it now 20 bucks? She got a good one Yeah, look at up to the internet you issue one command it installs this pie hole which includes community open source lists of all the URLs you want to block and

59:49 And whenever you in your own network at home, whenever you are on the web. Any of these it's kind of like what Brave does inherently anything and have any program in this case anything you're using Will then be routed into kind of like this dead zone so it never appears in your browser But it kind of appears as though it did go through for the service serving up the web page. Yes, which Brave does yes and but this is Fantastic because brave has its problems you know It's still wonky it's it's very wonky heavy do images properly all kinds of issues with it Yeah, but this piehole oh my god

1:00:28 And it's also fun to see you know like this Microsoft is they have like 18 different things. They're pinging once every second It's coming from all over there even pinging being God knows why but it's just All this stuff has blocked out as really really good, and I'm thinking this would be a great product if If we could do hardware You know everyone just needs one of these you need the thing that just you know I got on a USB stick if it will Be possible it's not to just have one of these everywhere you go. It's real, it speeds up your whole experience because it's blocking I'm blocking a little under 30% of all traffic that is just ad based bullcrap Yeah, 30%. That's really good. Get off the net

1:01:19 Now everyone has to go towards these things because the Chrome browser is just completely compromised and thank you very much developers who thought Google was the best thing ever, and now you're gonna have to deal with it yourself. Hey, Google does what they do because they do what they do. And with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John C Dvorak! Had no c for it just gave me your name. Chrome. Ah ha! And with that i'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John C Where the C stands for Chrome Dvorak! In the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry Also in the morning to the ships at sea and the feet in the water and the subs of the water And the dames and knights out there. And in the morning to our troll room You can find them at noagendastream.com also starting to be blocked here and there by some corporate Firewalls because apparently we uh...we steal your- We fish on you I don't know what the hell this is it's slowly going down people

CHAPTER 14 / 39 Discussion

Bionic Eye Technology, Fixed Focal Lenses and Perception

A discussion regarding a host's "bionic eye" surgery explains the mechanics of fixed versus variable focal length lenses. The procedure involves a lens that allows for binocular vision but requires the brain to "piece together" images from different focal points. This technological intervention in human sight prompts a brief philosophical reflection on the sketchy nature of visual reality.

bionic eye· focal length· binocular vision· retina· ophthalmology· perception

1:02:21 And I'm trying to bring up the firewalls say what I mean, it's ridiculous if anybody blocks us this But yeah, that's what they do. I mean you get reported by someone then all of a sudden You're just on the list is nothing you can do about it It's called deep platforming bitch and moan in the morning to Darren O'Neill as we discussed earlier He brought us the artwork for episode 1105 the title that was bombshell And we had our Guido Obama picture up there so you could see how close the The resemblance is in stature in gaze as in G a Z E Smile everything is very very similar uncanny almost looks like a bomb at 10 years young I don't want to say too much, but this show did kind of predict and here. We are knew it was gonna happen all right

1:03:21 Nice if I had my reading glasses, but okay How is your eye? How was the bionic eye doing by the way it's great. You still need reading glasses for him Yeah, these lenses only have... There's different kinds of lenses you can get. One is fixed focal and then you have some different focal lengths or a variable focal length but the one that I have is like medium to long two-focal ranges but it still gets binocular vision. Most people they'd get their single focal length they get long and then wear glasses right? But they use something sometimes lose binocular vision

1:03:58 And then there's these crazy ones that are just, you look at them and you go why would I put that in my eye? But apparently they give you a full range of vision. Which would be the reason but it's like the way to explain is yeah, I know looks weird this lens but apparently your brain gets these images and by the way this really makes you wonder About the basis of reality Seeing is believing you mean no I think everything it's kind of sketchy okay Because this thing is apparently just throws a bunch of crap into your eye and the brain goes. I think I can piece this together Yes, look perfect And he had this great vision

1:04:46 These random scraps that are thrown into the under the retina. It's just like okay, so it's oh okay So it's not just a clean focal lens. It's like a whole bunch of like sand No, it's a lens but they got all kinds of little dips and doodles on them. It's not like just the lens that you could... Like camera lenses has got more going on and its not natural because the real lenses are like rubbery little thing that helps us focus because it changes shape but its just long. There is lot to it. More to it than you think.

1:05:22 Okay, start with... let's start off. Now we don't have any official executive producers today I saw? I wanted to mention that we have no executive producer again this is two times in the same month which is a huge difference from last year It's actually an economic indicator for Wall Street it might be not happy about it This is Brian Wiffles And he came in with $282.28 in a check, Genesco Illinois and I don't think he expected to become executive producer but he is going to be executive producer and he did send the note in. All right. ITM thank you for your twice weekly sanity check! I have been an avid listener of the show for a little over two years

CHAPTER 15 / 39 Discussion

1:04:46 These random scraps that are thrown into the under the retina. It's just like okay, so it's oh okay So it's not just a clean focal lens. It's like a whole bunch of like sand No, it's a lens but they got all kinds of little dips and doodles on them. It's not like just the lens that you could... Like camera lenses has got more going on and its not natural because the real lenses are like rubbery little thing that helps us focus because it changes shape but its just long. There is lot to it.

1:05:22 Okay, start with... let's start off. Now we don't have any official executive producers today I saw? I wanted to mention that we have no executive producer again this is two times in the same month which is a huge difference from last year It's actually an economic indicator for Wall Street it might be not happy about it This is Brian Wiffles And he came in with $282.28 in a check, Genesco Illinois and I don't think he expected to become executive producer but he is going to be executive producer and he did send the note in. All right. ITM thank you for your twice weekly sanity check! I have been an avid listener of the show for a little over two years

Goat Karma Experiment, Anonymous Boots in the Air

A producer known as "Anonymous Boots in the Air" requested "Goat Karma" to conduct a year-long experiment comparing the events of 2019 to a "no karma" control year in 2018. The producer intends to report back in December to verify the efficacy of the karma. The segment includes the "train foamer" jingle as requested.

So an aggressive attempt to change my situation. I request the powerful goat karma And I am It's very powerful and I implore other producers to help me with an experiment. Oh pay attention! I will be comparing the events of goat karma induced 2019 versus my no karma control of 2018

1:10:55 I urge another producer to attempt the same with the standard Karma model and we can compare notes in late December. All right, I'm always excited to download the new show every Sunday and Sunday... I don't always agree with you two, you don't need to say it but I appreciate the copious amounts of work You've put into finding the truth-ity of the M5M and their shortcomings. I request goat karma for the experiment and train foamer because it always makes me laugh Also, I was wrong. He doesn't want that he wants just a regular foam or jingle okay here you go Thank you for your support You've got Karma all right let us know in December yeah, it'll be the test the big tests yes The goat karma test of 2019

California Exodus, Resettling in Idaho and Texas

A donor from Boise, Idaho, describes the "Calexite Exodus," where residents are fleeing California due to high taxes and social issues. The discussion identifies Idaho, Texas (specifically Austin), and Nevada as the primary target states for these transplants. There is a noted concern among locals that incoming Californians may bring the same political ideologies they are fleeing.

1:11:51 Nelson's at Salem, Boise, Idaho. $200 and 33 cents Oops, whoops. Forgive me Podfather for I have sinned! I've committed the great crime of douchebaggery by not donating for nearly a year. Money's been tight due to moving twice in a year and all the associated expenses now since at last donated i have joined the Kalexite Exodus leaving The People's Republic Of California and permanently resettling In The Great State Of Idaho. I could swear I felt my amygdala relaxing gradually Since making the move

1:12:34 I promise not to bring socialism and poop-covered streets with me, but I can't say the same for the thousands of other California transplants who have preceded me and are going to follow. Shortly after airtime, I will be interviewing for a promotion on my current job so please give me a hit of that sweet jobs karma! In addition to the karma, I'd like to request a foamer...and two to the back of the head as always thank you both for perpetually needed biweekly doses of soap. sanity. We got it for you. Oh my god! Woooo! Listen to that horn! Jobs, jobs and jobs let's vote for jobs! Karma

1:13:15 You know a lot of Californians have not a lot like they've good hauling their ass to Texas Which is really where the target state is Go away Stay away. Yeah, don't listen to him so there's about three targets states one is Nevada people go there and Because there's no taxes and it's you know It seems like it seems like a good idea at the time and lots of hookers Then a lot of them go to up to, then we have a huge Seattle contingent and the same people that go up there are the same ones that sometimes figure out that Idaho is probably a better bet. Than Seattle yeah

1:13:56 And then there's a few laggers, the ones that are really with no money. There's no reason and they're usually just silly to leave. They moved to Portland. Yeah it's horrible there now I hear! Oh yeah it has always been pretty bad and so... I mean he is hipster, you like Oakland, his hipsterish and you can kind of see a lot of fellow travelers there. And then Austin would be the next bet if you can't afford to go to New York, and that's it! They don't go to Chicago... I don't hear anybody say, I'm going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come. They're not doing that. There are just very few places and they're very targeted when it comes to Texas It is Austin no one saying, I am moving to Dallas! You're nuts man! Its too expensive, its crowded. Dallas? No, Austin. We are building walls

Donor Thank Yous, Trump Jobs Karma and Value for Value

Producers Mark Wilson and Glenn Gbukowski are thanked for their contributions. Glenn Gbukowski specifically requested "Trump Jobs Karma," a variation of the show's traditional jobs blessing. The hosts reiterate the "value for value" model that has sustained the podcast for over 1,100 episodes without traditional advertising or de-platforming.

mark wilson· glenn gbukowski· trump jobs karma· value for value· sarasota· donation

1:14:45 Yeah, I would go to Dallas before I'd go to Austin. We hear Dallas is great! Dallas is great? Okay onward to Mark Wilson the Baron of Glasgow $200 Gents, the show has been fabulous as always. Can this baron please receive some jobs? Carmen my current place is sinking and it looks like I'll be on the market again. Cheers! Yes sir Mark Wilson Baron of Glasgow of course Jobs jobs jobs and jobs let's vote for jobs You've got karma. And now we have Glenn Gbukowski, who is in Sarasota Florida $200. He sent a check and a note and it's a long note so but it's handwritten but now I get my reading glasses I can read it easy. I am dude named Glen get it? Dude name Glen. Yeah yeah yeah. And John Kurto who John Kurto

1:15:47 I'm a dude named Glenn who John Curto from Dundin, Florida called out twice as a douchebag. Until now, my only support for the show is buying a No Agenda t-shirt that I wore to the gym and buying a No Agenda mug that I use daily at work. Okay? First of all those are independent operators and money doesn't go to us although we do get a piece of this shirt business Actually, I think we used to get a piece of the mug business but they stopped selling them. That was Eric. I think other people sell mugs too. Yeah. They use daily at work anyway read that you should not listen to political talk while exercising but listening to no agenda show at the gym gets you pumped

1:16:34 pumped up just as much as listening to heavy metal. I'm currently working in data architecture and programming and SAS, and I'm bored out of my mind. Working long hours at my current job has also presented me with some recent health issues. Now I've come to realize the importance of a work-life balance." I'd like to call out John's smoking hot girlfriend is Jon Curtoe Ariana for being a listener to the show longer than I have and still not donating a dime Wow douchebagger Just because John donates to the show does not mean she gets a pass on donating. Yeah, especially yeah No family plans people She snubbed him

1:17:18 Does not get past on the donating especially since they are both employed. Yeah, even though John's a good friend and a good guy I'm happy he hit me in the mouth about that no agenda show He still a one-and John J o n and should be called out as a douchebag He was probably irked about getting called out. No kidding! Glenn here, can I please get a Trump jobs karma and don't be a denier? Oh he wants the Trump jobs karma. This is the first guy who's done this. Are you sure? Great work

1:17:54 I don't know if we actually put that clip is in a Bance and Adam's probably dig for it because this is the clip. We scrapped it because of the feedback we got in Seattle from a guy who had the Trump jobs camera dropped on him, and he couldn't get work for a year. Well let's find out! Let us know how it goes! The science is end! Jobs...jobs...jobs You've got karma. Well, I'd like to know too because that is not the Jobs Karma that the other guy was referring to The one that... I go it! It's the one with Nancy? It's the back and forth jobs jobs jobs Yeah with Nancy and then let's vote for jobs But we also have this one JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! That's pretty good but we'll do this one JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! JOBS! And jobs Let's vote for jobs

1:18:56 He's gonna be version he's gonna be CEO of GE if well, let's see what happens maybe Maybe that's the problem. It is one of those things just like it's like some sort of a toxin You have to really use a lot yes like a vaccine I say vaccine yeah with it That's the adjutant adjuvant whatever Glenn Bukowski in Sorasota. That was 200 bucks. Report back, Glenn! Dude named Glenn. That concludes our associate executive producer list and one executive producer was bumped up

1:19:38 Twice this month, this has happened. I want to thank these people for helping out produce show 1106. Yes in our value for value model which has been keeping the show going for eleven years and counting 1106 episodes once this one is done We have not been de-platformed. We have people who love being a part of the show, you're all producers and we have some producers that we'd like to honor early on just like Hollywood with these credits executive producer and associate executive producer credits You can use anywhere they are recognized They're valuable but of course unlike Hollywood we actually call out the executive producers and put them in the spotlight

Viacom Acquires Pluto TV, Streaming Technology Comparison

Viacom purchased the free streaming service Pluto TV for $340 million. The discussion compares Pluto TV's superior engineering and instant channel loading to the "horrible" performance of Comcast's Xfinity streaming service. The acquisition is viewed as a move by Viacom to acquire reliable streaming technology that larger telecommunications giants have failed to master.

viacom· pluto tv· xfinity· comcast· streaming· iptv· acquisition

1:20:18 Which as you'll see never happens on the award shows. They read their messages to the public Yes, no one frame at the end of your show like Chuck Lorre No! No-no You get whatever you want here and we love doing it We appreciate it And we have more producers to thank in our second segment $50 and above and another show coming for you on Sunday Remember us at Dvorak.org slash N A Now even I have the download on what's happening in Venezuela. Go out hit people with that formula! Our formula is this, we go out we hit people in the mouth. A very sad news Jean-Claude Sad news yeah? Sad news came across The Transom our favorite streaming television service Pluto TV has been purchased by Viacom That's the end of it

1:21:22 That will be the end of it because they're gonna take the cat channels off me. I think that it was three hundred and forty million dollars Which is pretty good? I don't know what considering It's just a Nick. It's a go here's the thing I think they do have to pay for their paying some fees to some of these outfits for well Yeah, yes, and yeah this probably have about ten channels They got to pay for the rest of them are all free and the catch channel is there own I think oh Could be that's cat channels now if you go, that's probably where all the value was Viacom is like 340 million I agree now. I want to mention something that you brought this up so I and I think there's a reason Viacom bottom mm-hmm

1:22:05 Because if Viacom didn't buy them, Xfinity would have. Because Xfinity has a streaming service for its subscribers and I have a Comcast connection to the internet And i'm a subscriber and I get the cable If I want it, I don't use it necessarily But I have it and I am allowed to look at the Xfinity streaming service because I'm a subscriber Okay so you load up on your Roku and hit a button The thing's spinning and spinning, then you hit it by eye. And then your channels come up all the regular channels and you say I want to watch channel five You put it on and you wait at least five minutes Oh yes! I've had that service It's horrible! It doesn't work No Meanwhile go over to Pluto I've hit the button It populates the channels almost instantly and you go to any one of them there is one spin and your're on Yeah

1:23:00 So why does Comcast, NBCUniversal big giant company they can't get this to work and some operation calling themselves Pluto? Pluto TV. They roll out of bed and the thing works absolutely perfectly? Hello! Yeah you know who has similar problems is Hulu Hulu also has problems and they always have to have some stupid logos or everyone knows it was an ABC show Or an NBC show, and that's like in an interstitial Stream insert it appears to me. There's a lot of buffering going on with that service too I don't know. I don't know what's going on Netflix seems to do pretty well But Netflix will next place has their own appliances over the country but Pluto that hit the bomb oh

1:23:47 But this is ridiculous. I know Pluto doesn't have an appliance at the ISP level, so they're just doing something right and I think it was a smart move by Viacom to buy them because... To steal two cat channels for 340. It's a steal for the technology because nobody else seems to understand it. And what is wrong with Xfinity? They can't get this to work. Are they that bad at engineering? Do you want to trust this company would you invest in them? You know what, I'm just going to wager here's a shot Xfinity comes from the IPTV people and I think that they you know, IPTV which as far as I know never really took off the way They expected it with a technology at the time. This is when I was in London and British Telecom was doing all this Everybody's working on networks was the big leader? Yeah, they kind of come out of that camp

1:24:37 Which I'm sure it's top-heavy tons of engineers all kinds of stuff and the Pluto guys just by the name alone You get the impression now. They're a bunch of dudes But you dudes named Ben goofballs, so let's throw up the cat channel Hey, let's put our T on they'll give it to us for free hey great. Hey Let's put some eyeballs as our logo yeah love it Totally. And you're right about the RT, I'm sure they get that carriage for nothing. Yeah, I mean... Viacom will drop that right away. It's kind of our hacker TV service. Well hopefully, well you know, I can say I'm hopeful they don't ruin it but you know they will. They won't ruin it tomorrow. They sold out man!

UN 5G Health Warning, Claire Edwards Address

Claire Edwards addressed the United Nations, warning of a "global health catastrophe" caused by 5G electromagnetic frequencies. She compared 5G radiation to directed energy weapons and urged the Secretary General to halt the rollout at UN duty stations. The Secretary General admitted ignorance of the dangers and promised to raise the issue with the World Health Organization.

5g· united nations· claire edwards· world health organization· emf· radiation

1:25:18 Well, they probably were losing their ass. No doubt. I'm telling you! I got a lot of feedback on the 5G segment i did on the last show. It was good segment Thank you There's a lot I could say... A lot of feedback we got but there is only one clip I want to play today One clip and one clip only I think it'll do it for today's 5g segment And this is uh... I think its like a year or half ago This was at The United Nations And I think this was about health, also about the World Health Organization, the WTO. This is Claire Edwards and she is addressing the chair of... maybe even been the Secretary General not sure at the United Nations who also at the end will chime in about what she's saying and this is very interesting because when the elites are worried about technology

1:26:13 and it's still being jammed down your throat. Let's say maybe they were apprehensive about using the technology, you know we've all heard Steve Jobs and didn't let his kids use iPads smart or iPhones there is a lot of this you know... Kids in Silicon Valley go to private schools where they use an abacus I don't know if that's true but it sounds kind of like it A lot may have been taught on Abacus because its actually very good little exercise to learn how to use one So to recap for the 5G technology which is going, which is being touted everywhere as the savior of our world because we can have self-driving cars even though I never heard that before but we need it now. We can get super fast internet all the porn you can drink all the time It's gonna be just...you know there will be applications you've never even thought possible virtual reality augmented reality on the streets! It's going to be great and

1:27:10 It just might kill you. Current public exposure levels are at least one quintillion, that's 18 zeros. One quintillion times above natural background radiation according to Professor Ole Johansson of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden

1:27:49 The highly dangerous biological effects of EMFs have been documented by thousands of studies since 1932, indicating that we may be facing a global health catastrophe orders-of magnitude worse than those caused by tobacco and cigarettes. Mr. Secretary General, on the basis of the precautionary principle I urge you to have these EMF emitting devices removed immediately from these buildings and to call a halt to any rollout of 5G at UN duty stations because 5G is designed to deliver concentrated and focused electromagnetic radiation in excess of 100 times current levels in the same way as do directed

1:28:33 energy weapons. Can I just stop there and just say how much i love that she said that the radiation is the same as directed energy weapons? I thought that was just some conspiracy theory that I talked about now it's in the... We talked about the directed, this terror hurts thing yeah..I'm being a little facetious because if you bring this stuff up and you say you get radiated like a doo DEW and people roll their eyes at you. Thank goodness it's in the United Nations that is being discussed. Of 100 times current levels, in the same way as do directed energy weapons Maybe she just a listener

1:29:11 In line with the UN guiding principles on business and human rights, to protect respect and remedy 5G technologies must be subjected to an independent health and safety assessment before they are launched anywhere in the world. There is currently an international appeal signed by 237 EMF scientists from 41 nations urging the UN and particularly the WHO to exert strong leadership in fostering the development of more protective EMF guidelines, encouraging precautionary measures and educating the public about the considerable health risks particularly the risks to children and fetal development. Who cares?

1:29:56 Mr. Secretary General, I think we have a unique opportunity here at the UN office at Vienna Since our medical records are digitized you have the choice and the possibility of releasing data on a closed population exposed to off-the-scale levels of electromagnetic radiation in a metal walled building which exacerbates the situation to establish if there have already been abnormal health consequences for the UN staff here in the last 28 months. I urge you to do so and stop any rollout of 5G immediately, thank you

1:30:37 This guy's sitting there listening to this and he comes back with this Because you're talking with someone that is a little bit ignorant on these things. We're talking to the Wi-Fi systems On the ceilings of these buildings Wi-Fi boosters and cell phone boosters were installed without consultation without information to staff in December 2015 The situation here is extremely dangerous. I have heard anecdotally of many people who have had health problems, I don't know if they are related but the precautionary principle would dictate that we use our medical records to look into this and that we remove these dangerous devices immediately

1:31:20 Thank you. I become worried because I put those devices in my house! Not a good idea. This, I will have to... I mean, I confess my ignorance on this but we'll have to... But I'm going to raise this with WHO which i think is the organization that might be able to deal with it properly for them to put someone, their stuff or organizations to work on that because I must confess. I was not aware of that danger. All right so of course nothing has happened Oh no WHO? What are they going to do worse than anyone now this Claire Edwards does have she's a part of a group which you can find at 5gspaceappeal.org and i just wanted to read a little bit how does that go for number five g

5G Space Appeal, Environmental and Health Risks

The "5G Space Appeal" warns that the deployment of 5G constitutes an experiment on humanity and a crime under international law. The plan involves millions of base stations and 20,000 satellites in space to connect one trillion objects to the Internet of Things. Critics argue the unprecedented levels of radio frequency radiation will cause widespread environmental and biological damage.

5g space appeal· internet of things· satellites· radiation· environmental impact· cancer

1:32:16 Spaceappeal.org and the space part is what caught my eye I'm just gonna read from this for a second So they have an open letter They have a lot of signatories, of course when you know they have tons of medical people who say this is bad right off the bat that they say the deployment of 5g Constitutes an experiment on humanity in the environment that is defined as a crime under international law Now listen to this. I'm going to read two paragraphs Telecommunications companies worldwide with the support of governments are poised within the next two years to roll out the fifth generation wireless network 5G. This is set to deliver what is acknowledged to be unprecedented societal change on a global scale! We will have

1:32:59 Smart homes, smart businesses, smart highways, smart cities and self-driving cars. Virtually everything we own and buy from refrigerators and washing machines to milk cartons hairbrushes and infants diapers will contain antennas and microchips that will be connected wirelessly to the internet Every person on earth will have instant access to super high speed low latency wireless communications from any point on the planet even in rainforests mid ocean and the Antarctic Bullshit! What is not widely acknowledged as that this will also result in unprecedented environmental change on a global scale. The planned density of radio frequency transmitters is impossible to envisage In addition to millions of new 5G base stations on Earth and 20,000 new satellites in space twenty billion transmitting objects will be part of the Internet of Things by 2020 and one trillion objects a few years later

1:33:54 Commercial 5g at lower frequencies and slower speeds was deployed in Qatar Finland Estonia in the mid, okay here we go And then they had but they're doing this in space and the space 5G transmitters They say will be operating it 200 megawatts That's crazy. It's gonna come from the satellites. I'm just trying to burn together burn the place down So where does that leave the smart wall? Do we have to make that 5G enabled so we can fry people? Fry people. Come near this wall. Maria, we come across the border here. Maria! Wow how racist is that?! That's pretty bad

1:34:48 Do it again do it again do it again, and I'm not doing that There's your 5G at the wall. Yeah right there you go So I continue to stay on top of this the studies are there What is just most interesting now? And um one of our producer like well We had a lot of people writing one of our producers was denied access to think that the big Barcelona show, the mobile show. Even though he's a current... and for whatever reason they wouldn't let him in which is irked about it. They let everyone in these shows unless you have zero credentials Yeah he's not being accredited

1:35:29 Even though what is his credential? What does he work for? Does he have a business card or anything. Yeah, he does He works for an outfit I don't know if you want me to mention the outfit because he's going there super smoothy Is it a news operation yes it is a news operation well they should let him in he says really says It looks like a lot of this was about Qualcomm and that's why the qualcomm deal didn't go through did it Go through wasn't Qualcomm supposed to be purchased by the Chinas That I think that deal was put in a vance. That's part of what's going on here because we don't want China Deploying the networks and determining when they're gonna fry us our government wants to must do that at their own schedule Oh, yeah We have our own way of frying people if you don't we don't want the Chinese to have control over that So and that will be the 5g report for today And I thought that clip was all-telling Yeah

1:36:24 Yeah, that's good. I'll have to check into this because if there is something going around... Because this is the time if they're some document with a bunch of scientists sign it because you know science is in. This what you take your city government locally everybody talking about all everybody take it through your little town they're gonna probably put these things and you take just the City Council and you just had put a stop to it not that hard. They will stop it No, they will put the things Austin. Are you kidding me? No way not sorry about awesome time about the little towns because it just doesn't work unless it's everywhere So all the little towns I'm saying Berkeley They shouldn't put them up a bit to think Emeryville their whole Bay Area most of the little town San Francisco They should probably be able to stop him there Austin. I'm not so sure

5G Deployment Economics, Verizon and AT&T Strategy

The economic feasibility of 5G is questioned due to the requirement for transmitters every 250 feet, necessitating massive "truck rolls" and infrastructure costs. While AT&T is accused of "faking" 5G with software updates, Verizon is moving forward with real deployment. The concept of "network slicing" is introduced as a way for telecoms to offer tiered speed services on the new network.

5g· verizon· at&t· network slicing· infrastructure· economics· truck roll

1:37:09 I'd like, I think it would be probably hard to stop it in Palo Alto. Austin any town that's really high tech you know is just a bunch of... You know that's an interesting point let's see how they deploy that in Silicon Valley if they really are going to deploy this all over the place if they do that yeah will be doubted Well, they may employ it like in Palo Alto but not Mountain View. I don't know and this is not gonna go over. This is too expensive It's I think the economics of its gonna kill that whole idea You can't put a billion of these things out there as too much to expensive as it's more than just a transmitter I mean yeah, okay, let's John John Oh, this is 100 bucks was 100 billion dollars in sales But then you gotta buy a pole

1:37:56 Or you got to have a guy, some guys gotta do a truck roll. Because everyone's gotta be a truck roll that's a truck roll for every 250 feet everywhere? I mean this is not possible! This is impossible to afford! You're missing the point aren't ya? Uber is not profitable either You know, it's like this is just money. Money is going to flow into this. Step further and say you're missing the point. Okay? This is not an Uber scam where you just have a bunch of money coming in and you just hope to God that you go public and then you can pay off all your bills. This is companies like Verizon. Yes! A scam of epic proportions. They have real problems.

1:38:36 real revenues. Yes, epic proportion they are going with 5G this what do you mean that not it's not gonna happen is not gonna roll out AT&T is already faking it are you kidding me? They're faking it but they're not doing it okay You know what stay in Berkeley don't worry you will get fried No Okay If anyone getting fried its you Why You're in Austin. Yes, yes well I'm not going to get a 5G handset but i think it's a little short-sighted to say it's not gonna work. I wouldn't get a handset in a million years. Verizon spent 7 billion of China's money on getting the frequencies they're going ahead with this this is going to happen we'll see will see they have to go up against the public

1:39:21 The public is being wooed with demonstrations of augmented reality and self-driving cars. It doesn't take much to freak them out! Oh man, okay... Do you want to make a bet? What?! Do you want to bet on it? Bet on what? How's the bet go this thing that has arrived...? You said it's not gonna happen! It's not gonna happen. What's not going to happen? There will be no 5G? They're back it off some faux 4g with you know just saying its 5G and they'll never do 5G. 5G is not gonna put these little transmitters all over the place there's no way yeah okay I'm sorry you want to end your technology reporting career with this prediction You already ended by reporting on this That's right!

1:40:12 And by the way, okay. Yes You cut deep platform by reporting on it what am I thinking? So in that so I have the experience I'm a voice of reason Okay and reality and objectivity perfect. Okay Well you don't hope you don't mind if I continue to do these segments No That's a or do I mind let me back up a little bit this won't happen because of segments like ours yes nice There's something about the 5G that it's called slicing. Is it called slice? Yeah, network slicing which AT&T and Verizon are all jacked up about because I guess the way it works is you can slice up the 5G signal and you can offer like 20 different tiers of speed. Yeah this is like when they finally discovered multiplexing on optical fibers. Very similar yeah

5G in Metal Buildings, Cybersecurity Concerns

A New York Times report criticizes the Trump administration's 5G push for focusing on national security competition with China while ignoring cybersecurity vulnerabilities. The discussion also touches on the "microwave oven" effect of 5G repeaters inside metal buildings, where signals bounce off walls and increase radiation exposure for occupants.

5g· microwave effect· cybersecurity· donald trump· fcc· national security

1:41:11 Yeah, you can just probably slice this thing a million different ways. There's a lot of room to play around the problem is there are people in the way now I want to go back to that other clip. I was going to mention this. I think there's something funny about this woman's complaint about all these little repeaters all over this place in a metal building. So you're basically in a microwave oven. Yes, being fried! So it's not just that the signal goes through you... It goes through you, bounces off the metal building and goes through you again, bounces off to this side, goes through you again and again until your toast literally

1:41:49 So, I just found the imagery hilarious. Metal building! The most recent article I could find from the New York Times on 5G which is negative but not for the reasons you'd think President Trump wrote in October presidential memorandum it is imperative that America be first and fifth generation 5g wireless technologies While the administration, especially the Trump Federal Communications Commission FCC makes much of how the 5G race with China is a matter of national security not enough effort is being put into the security of the network itself. Nowhere in the president's directive for instance was there word about protecting the cybersecurity of the new network so it's all bad because Trump has loosened regulations and there's not gonna be enough cybersecurity and China's gonna come in and kill us

1:42:40 That's all they can say about it. Not a word about health concerns or radiation or any of that. Yeah, it's great Yeah, it is great. We're on top of it yes we are so let's go back to Let's go back to some other more generalized news I have a couple of sorry just one more thing do you remember? we had the report of some general and I and I think I accused them of being like a Some kind of douche shill who had this idea that we would nationalize the 5g network And then sell slices off too Or you know use allow it to be rented effectively by the by the telecoms

1:43:21 I actually to be honest about it, don't remember any of this. Okay i'll bring that for the next show but I think the guy was trying to warn us about something Oh you're taking a second look at this? Yeah yeah He's signaling and you thought he was douching Yes I thought he was douching but he might actually be on to something Alright well that will be for the next report The guy just got two switchbacks? Yep Switchback what is a switchback? A couple whipsaws Yeah, I get my whipsaw report which is...I got a letter from one of our producers saying that he stops listening to the show because it's too depressing. And he says it's depressing because every time we bring up these tricks that the media is pulling on the public, he gets depressed about that! Instead of taking it as a great piece of knowledge to apply every time you turn on the news? You can actually apply this knowledge to see what the fakery is which is kind of the game? I'm guessing that what we have here

CHAPTER 24 / 39 Discussion

Climate Change Alarmism, Amy Goodman and David Attenborough

Amy Goodman's reporting on climate "tipping points" and David Attenborough's speech at Davos are criticized as "terrorizing" the youth. Attenborough's comments are interpreted as being more about population control than environmental protection. The segment argues that constant alarmism leads to public fatigue and disbelief in scientific warnings.

climate change· amy goodsman· david attenborough· davos· tipping point· population control

1:44:20 is a person who is idealistic and our show is designed to kind of debunk everything that is sold by the mainstream media, all these commercial operations corporations and these messaging companies. And so being idealistic, this revelation that we do on a day-show by show basis is depressing to him. I find it very disheartening about that. Well then the show was not for him! No...I don't think is because most people get a kick out of this stuff although I will say that I got enough bad feedback about the gruesome animated gifs in the last newsletter Some were a bit harsh

1:45:07 Yeah, I can't took it to heart. I'm gonna back off on yeah, I think that's probably a good idea Yeah, and we didn't get the kind of donation anyway Which is all the pain? We got a first of all let's start with Look at the whips so many out ladies. Let's start with a Amy Goodman And she's doing a, she did on a role in the last show about climate change. I'm going to play this not a whipsaw but it is just showing what the reporting is like this Amy Climate gloom with her tipping points. Whose study published this week finds the melting of Greenland ice sheet may have reached a tipping point and could severely increase sea level rise over the next 20 years? The report confirms other recent studies which warn the Arctic is warming at twice the rate of the rest of the planet

1:45:57 due to climate change. And people wonder why AOC talks about dying in 12 years? It's this kind of reporting that terrorizes the children, thanks Amy! Yeah well here she does a whipsaw or switch back depending on what you want to call these things I've never really concluded what to call this is our Davos. Oh, oh, is she in Davos? No she's not there but she's reporting about because they talked about climate change at Davos a little bit and here's an example. In Davos Switzerland global elites are gathering at the World Economic Forum this week while some of the world's wealthiest people... Yeah that could have been Alex Jones intro

1:46:38 When she says global elites, I mean that's total info war speak. In Davos Switzerland global elites are gathering at the World Economic Forum this week while some of the world's wealthiest people discussed economic and business issues other speakers including renowned British natural historian Sir David Attenborough sounded the alarm on the dangers of climate change It is difficult to overstate it We are now so numerous, so powerful, so all-pervasive. The mechanisms that we have for destruction are so wholesale and so frightening that we can actually just exterminate whole ecosystems without even noticing it." That was David Attenborough speaking with Prince William Tuesday. You might die!

1:47:30 He's not sounding the alarm about anything except population control. Which is, is the true solution we all know it is. Not climate change! No he didn't even use the word climate change global warming or anything in between. It's more... She's full of crap if she says that she makes this assertion that he's sounding the alarm and he extended she plays a random clip more terrorizing of the American public particularly the young ones it's I'm really gonna start paying attention to this because There's a reason why we have stories like the boy who cried wolf. There's a reason why these stories work throughout Millennia is because it's true if you keep saying oh, it's gonna melt so it's gonna rise Oh, we're gonna die out by the way The Hill bought

1:48:22 This was funny. She's like you know every day in Miami It's underwater because of global warming and Tina I swear to God she said do you see fish flopping? Oh, man? I'd love that woman So funny Anyway yeah this is what it's doing its terrorizing everyone and no one will believe anymore And there may not be a reason to believe you cuz it's not very apparent that what you're saying is true Well, I find it very disappointing. This is the first whipsaw switchback I've heard her do. I'm sure she's done them before. I didn't realize she was part of that clique which is really headlined by CBS and the big networks but I do have a CBS one okay and this is a discussion of Cohen and it's little... The president's lawyer who... Yeah, the president doesn't want to testify. That guy's a douchebag! It's pretty obvious but now hold on for a second

CHAPTER 25 / 39 Discussion

Michael Cohen Testimony, Media Whipsaws and Subconscious Framing

The media's coverage of Michael Cohen's postponed congressional testimony is used to illustrate "whipsaws"—where a reporter's claim is followed by a clip that doesn't actually support the statement. For example, a reporter claimed Elijah Cummings warned the President about witness intimidation, but the subsequent clip only showed Cummings promising that Cohen would eventually testify.

michael cohen· elijah cummings· media whipsaw· subconscious· framing· witness intimidation

1:49:17 The date Michael Cohen, yeah. He somehow we had that news report that the president forced him to lie to Congress and now he was supposed to testify in front of in front of Congress again, but he says he's being threatened. He's being threatened like a mob boss That's what I hear on MSNBC Oh, yeah mafia practices nice Discussed that little bit in this clip But then there you see oh There's a whipsaw in here and it's like Please. The president has repeatedly attacked him and he's a weak person but it used to be Cohen who was on the attack here he can be heard threatening a reporter who inquired about aspects of Mr Trumps first divorce

1:50:00 So I'm warning you, tread very lightly because what I am going to do to you is gonna be disgusting. Do you understand me? Cohen's testimony was highly anticipated as lawmakers wanted to grill him about a now disputed BuzzFeed report that Mr Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress Democratic Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings has warned the president about intimidating witnesses. I promise you that we will hear from Mr Cohen Congressional leaders have not decided if they will subpoena Cohen, but they need to decide soon. Oh brother! So they're taking him down here in this report? That's interesting... But here is the whipsaw Elijah Cummings has warned the president about intimidating witnesses Yeah Then they cut to him You'd expect a cut-to would be something to do with him warning or something

1:50:56 And the clip is he says, they cut to him and he says oh we're gonna get him to testify don't worry. How is that warning the president about anything? Let's listen. Elijah Cumming has warned the President about intimidating witnesses I promise you that we will hear from Mr. Coyne Yes! Totally totally nailed it It's not about that at all So we have this situation, and I only catch a few of these. Because most of it they're designed to get into your subconscious and the only thing designed to go into your subconscious is what the reporter says. The reporter says oh and then he says he's gonna eat the babies in the hospital! And then they clip to the guy saying you know? Uh...I've had two kids my- I got two kids uh like them I love my kids. Done

1:51:49 Yeah, and it's got one doesn't equate with the other and you wonder why your hillbot buddies always get kind of confused and muddle-headed because this is this time. This stuff doing this yeah So then you hear that as if it's proof But it really has nothing to do what was just planted in your head and that gets shoved in there at see it's crazy Yeah, it's not healthy And I'm like I said I catch these now and I know I'm like cuz you don't catch him half the time when I play around tell You there's one there I don't believe, I must be only hearing about one out of 20. And because i'm always doing a lot of stuff driving the ship and I love listening to the show after we're done cause I hear all these things that you're saying and sometimes it's funny and I'm so deadpan cause I just didn't hear it or was doing something else but these whipsaws... The problem with these is when you really focus on them You become that guy yelling at the TV

CHAPTER 26 / 39 Discussion

Kirsten Gillibrand 2020 Apology Tour

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand began her 2020 presidential campaign with an "apology tour," renouncing her previous "A" rating from the NRA and her past conservative stances on immigration. She described her former positions as "callous" and "wrong," attributing them to representing a 98% white district. The segment mocks her transition to an "F" rating as a badge of honor for the primary.

kirsten gillibrand· 2020 election· nra· immigration· apology· cnn

1:52:46 I'm a little wary of that. I enjoy yelling at the TV, but I do it when I'm alone with the people around because they say what? What do you want? I'm yelling at the TV don't pay any attention my problem is I'm trying to yell and Tina's yelling louder so i don't know what to Here's a quick little trip around the candidates for 2020 because we're going to be killed with this for the next two years, which is probably going to kill the show. We won't be able to survive it until we find out who won just cause it's so debilitating. So we need to take people out and frame people in certain way. Let us start... well actually Kirsten Gillibrand? Is it Gillibrand or Jillibrand?

1:53:38 It's Gillibrand or Gillibrand. So she had to go on the apology tour because this is how it kind of works today in left wing, leftist media all media I would say is oh you want to run well hold on you want to host a show? Oh first we got to go back into your history find something that you did that was abhorrent and we're gonna force you to apologize about it and then maybe we will consider you to be one of our candidates. So CNN is doing their vetting, they've had the three B's Beto Biden and Bernie those are kind of on the back burner for now and now they're trying to flesh out the rest of the field Gillibrand and this is a super cuts montage I didn't do it myself so that they put a song under it but still funny only minute this is the Gillibrand apology tour because she was

1:54:36 so wrong about so many things including her A rating of the NRA and you know she's really she really was kind of all in with border security and that was very racist. So, do you want to run for 2020? You have to apologize! If Trump's immigration positions are racist were they racist when you held some of those positions as well They certainly weren't empathetic and they were not kind. I was callous to the suffering of families who want to be with their loved ones, but I just knew that I was wrong. I couldn't have been more wrong. And I was wrong to feel that way. I realized that things I had said were wrong. I think it's important to know when you're wrong. That's why I was embarrassed. I hadn't really spent time to hear those kinds of stories and that was my fault.

1:55:23 fighting for other people's kids the same way I was fighting for my own. I recognized, I didn't know everything about the whole state something that i'm embarrassed about and I am ashamed of it came from a district that was 98% white we have immigrants but not alot of immigrants I really regretted that I didn't look beyond my district I did no think about suffering in other peoples lives I was not caring about others when you were representing a district in congress you had an A plus rating from them where they engaged all that bad stuff back then? They sure were and now I have an F rating. Can you understand President Trump's position on immigration since you were there? No, no! I think his positions are racist. Yes, the punchline that was very well done by whoever did it. That's the Supercuts guys, Supercuts. Well they did a good job putting throwing that little jab in the end if that was good so now we have...I think she's disqualified because she said

Elizabeth Warren, Bailey the Dog Strategy

Elizabeth Warren is utilizing her dog, Bailey, and "Bailey Cam" on Instagram to appeal to millennial voters. The strategy involves bringing the dog on stage and creating separate photo lines for the pet. The discussion notes the high production value of these social media videos and the use of the dog to soften her political image.

1:56:17 In that rundown she said, important. She did! Oh yeah I heard it. Important. I love how leaders of this country really show that you can follow my example because I went for that F That's the grade i'm going for from A to F Elizabeth Warren has been cranking up the Instagram and her attempt to capture some of the, I think the young millennial audience maybe some of the AOC audience. And she's taking it one step further if you want to get millennials what do you need? What do you need?! We talk about it all the time! A beard? It's not babies... a dog? Yes!!

1:57:04 So she takes her dog on the road now. Her dog, Bailey... Bailey. And so Bailey has Bailey Cam I mean we're actually just trying to We're going to fall in love with the dog The dog is adorable no doubt about it and everyone's- and Bailey's got a camera so it's Bailey cam but she goes so far- When you say a dogs adorable I get what? What? I'm sorry I should have said he's Adorbs But listen how she introduces Bailey and her schmuck husband.

1:57:45 Today, I thought i'd bring the two guys in my life. Bruce and Bailey. If anybody wants to stay around and take a picture? So their husband has been downgraded to a dog! The two guys of my life, Bruce and Bailey... I'll be here we can do that and Bailey will be out there with his own separate photo line This is not a competition. The dog's on stage. There's everyone fawning over the dog

1:58:23 Notice by the way, this is a produced video on Instagram with the music mixed in and everything Did you did you find your dog? Yeah. He's adorbs isn't he it's It's a good-looking dog I would say yeah, he's adorbs so that's her tactic That's our strategy from now or attack the King her strategy kids. That's what I'm looking at looking around No, that's a good question. I don't actually know she has children She hasn't got much as yes have children. She's got Amelia and Alexander she had a boy in a girl perfect fit you know to two kids and Boy and a girl yeah, I'm guessing but the dog is more important I guess much more important And that's what the kids want the kids love it It's watch for the Bailey camp Bailey is it now the third clip and final one? I have for today's 2020 rundown is

Kamala Harris, Cultural Appropriation and 2020 Prospects

Kamala Harris is identified as the "Silicon Valley candidate" due to her family ties to Uber and MSNBC. The discussion accuses her of "cultural appropriation" for positioning herself as African American despite growing up in Canada with Jamaican and Indian parents. A bet is made that her lack of a traditional African American experience will be used against her in the debates.

kamala harris· cultural appropriation· 2020 election· silicon valley· chris matthews· howard university

1:59:23 Kamala Harris or she's at us Camilla. She says camel now camella announced that I think Howard University Black University, I would like to remind you that she was born in Oakland of a Jamaican father and Indian mother and grew up in Canada in Ottawa as she is not an African American But she has a lot of things going for her. Her sister Myer Harris is an MSNBC commentator, her dad... I think her parents divorced that's why she moved to Oakland away from Canada. Her dad is a professor at Stanford with tenure and

2:00:12 And her sister's husband is Tony West. He is general counsel at Uber Now this is the Silicon Valley candidate I believe makes sense they got the MSNBC tie-in They got the Silicon Valley tie in with uber and a brother, and she's in California The issue of course as we need to present her in the same light that we presented Barack Obama who also was not african-american he was indonesian half Indonesian, half white. So they need to kind of... set the stage and Chris Matthews did a piece with I forget the guy's name black commentator on MSNBC and you'll get the idea once you hear the clip. Let's talk about today according to Politico Harris' announcement of Martin Luther King Jr day was steeped in symbolism her aid said the red and yellow color scheme by the way for Harris campaign logo was inspired by former representative Shirley Chisholm New York whose 1972 run for president

2:01:13 was the first by a black woman from a major political party. Harris's video, by the way outlines the theme of the career prosecutor's candidacy for The People. Ruth let's talk about this... Let me go to Jamal I've got to go with Jamal on this for obvious reasons I gotta go to you, hahaha because hahaha you're black haha for obvious reasons. How racist is that? Now listen to what Chris Matthews asks. Well she wants to win the South Carolina primary, that's what I think. So put her headquarters in South Carolina? Listen, I think that she has a lot of strengths here She is got a bio, she has got a record, she is a prosecutor with a heart, she does have a lot to deal with keeping people out of recidivism Is she seen as African American? It's the organization that she pulls up Yeah, she seems African American

2:02:13 She was at Howard University today, one of the oldest. They call themselves the oldest I went to Morehouse. I think we're a little bit older But she's that much who's at Howard University today when she when she did her announcement press conference? She's going in South Carolina in the first week Yeah, um she is really planting her feet in the african-american community. I think she's gonna be a very strong candidate This is cultural appropriation of an incredible magnitude. She does not have the African American heritage, she does not have the African American experience! She grew up in Ottawa! And yet, hey... Someone will drop the appropriation bomb on her. This has to happen. Bullcrap! No way! No way!! Okay mark this time and you said no way I say way Mark the time people somebody out there make a note but just show number and just show down You're gonna regret this

2:03:10 No, I'm not. This is gonna happen! You're gonna regret betting with me in this very show? I've never regretted betting with anybody... Okay But- I always win! Okay Mark the time down everybody he always wins 2 0 3 okay mark the time He Always Wins anyway back to Kamala She is you know she's just going straight ahead with African-American now if she said I'm brown or black fine You're Brown. That's of course instead of color be fine that'd be fine too no, she's an african-american I'm sorry it's a lie did she actually say that oh?

2:03:45 No, I don't think she said that. But this is what you hear them positioning her Chris Matthews even asked Hey, no, did she isn't gonna work for African-American? Oh yeah, no problem with the embrace her Yeah based on skin color I guess which is a kind of racist It's very racist All right We'll see how this goes but just somebody's gonna drop the bomb on her They're gonna do it in public. It's gonna be during one of the big debates or something like that and that'll be the end of her She doesn't have a chance Kirsten Kirsten Gillibrand, she doesn't have a chance I'm telling you The only people that have a chance and I'll say that here right here now is one is Bernie Sanders

2:04:29 And Hillary Clinton, it's the same two people. Why would they be any different? I was talking to a good friend of mine the other day, Silicon Valley guy billionaire He says...I said Clinton is going to win because he was thinking Kamala Harris maybe has some shot which lines up with your thesis that she is a Silicon Valley pick And they do a crappy job of picking, by the way. It says Hillary because of return on investment. They put too much money into Hillary's ROI! That's a good point. We'll talk about that and more next. I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda Imagine all the people who could deal with us Oh yeah that'd be fab Yeah on NO AGENDA

Random T-Shirts, Dude Named Muhammad of the Two Seas

Craig Kilgo donated random t-shirts from a surplus broker service. A donor from Bahrain, now known as "Sir Dude Named Muhammad of the Two Seas," achieved knighthood. He requested a "Sharia-compliant" knighting ceremony and asked about alternative titles like Sheikh or Emir, which the peerage committee denied.

Black Panther Oscar Nomination Bet, John Dvorak Loses

A listener reminded the hosts of a bet from show 1058 regarding whether "Black Panther" would be nominated for Best Picture. John Dvorak lost the $5 bet to Adam Curry, as the film received the nomination. Dvorak argues the nomination was a political move by a "chicken shit" Academy to avoid accusations of racism.

black panther· oscars· academy awards· bet· john dvorak· best picture

2:14:22 I am T in mourning the gents. Thank you both for putting out a truly superior product this donation was inspired by a reminder that propped up on my phone regarding the best John made with Adam on show 1058 which you never lose Adam predicted that Black Panthers would be nominated for an Oscar for the best picture because the Academy Award was too chicken shit not to mention it in today's hyper politicized climate. John disagreed and bet Adam five bucks it would not be nominated wrong again Dvorak! You can't even say, in a group of people, yeah I think movie was no good I couldn't get through it. audible gasp

2:15:10 Oh, racist! So here... but they're stupid because now it's gonna get worse. I can predict what will happen Black Panther will be nominated in Best Movie and Popular Movie It'll win popular, it won't win best movie The Academy thinks okay well we gave them an award so were all done with the racist thing But there is going to be huge backlash and outrage about not being the best movie Racists Hollywood Its gonna be fun to watch And they're just pussies. That's why they brought this whole stupid category in for years people have been nominated for best picture I bet you they do rock five bucks five bucks it is your own the guy Just 15 minutes ago, you said you never lose well I didn't realize that this one It was a bit that actually made so now I take it back. I've lost once and

2:16:04 Now and I want, I don't want like through the bank. I want an actual five crisp $5 bill in the mail. Put it in a mail? Yes you could frame it I will say this, your little notion that it's going to win something was not correct because it hasn't won any of the popular awards. I didn't say that! I said it would be nominated... No you go back further in your con- not that was the bet but further earlier into your commentary you said it'll be nominated or win some popular award. I didn't pull the whole clip because it was going to take too long, but now you're trying to welch on the bet. I'll explain it. Hold on! I'm not welching on a bet. I'm saying earlier in your commentary that you just played... Yes, I know exactly- You said we will nominate and win a popular award but won't win an Academy Award. John, listen

2:16:52 The discussion was about a possible new category which did not materialize. And I said, it will be nominated for both they'll give them the bullshit award and they'll just nominate it for best picture and the bet was about being nominated for best picture. Yeah okay. Alright sore loser. I won't comment on that nasty remark. Nasty? Okay, sending people... Anyway he goes on and says something else. He already did the most important part! Yeah well thank you yeah hey Jason thanks for nothing okay? That wouldn't have come up in today's conversation at all if it wasn't for you And your handy alarm that you set on your phone good idea

It could go on for months if you won't get knighted. That's why it's a real It's an act of valor to become a Black Knight.

CHAPTER 34 / 39 Discussion

Super Bowl LIII Predictions, Patriots vs. Rams

The hosts predict the outcome of Super Bowl LIII between the New England Patriots and the Los Angeles Rams. There is speculation that the game may be "rigged" to favor the Rams to boost the NFL's presence in the Los Angeles market. The Patriots are characterized as "nationalists," while the Rams are associated with "goat power."

super bowl liii· patriots· rams· rigged sports· goat power· maroon 5

2:25:09 And I thought the Chiefs were going to pull it off, but they couldn't for a lot of different reasons. The Patriots are in there again and if it's going to be a game of talent the Rams should win but they don't think that you know what? It mean is going to be coach great coaching versus I think superior talent now we typically look at these things based on political or geopolitical geopolitical nature at sports games considering most of them are rigged What I don't know about much about the Rams Is that the Los Angeles Rams? Yes, they just moved to Los Angeles from St. Louis where they moved from Los Angeles from to get to St. Louis It was Los Angeles then st. Louis now they're back in LA Technically because it's a bigger market and they're trying to boost football interest in Los Angeles I would see if there was a rigged game that Rams would win for sure Because Boston has got nothing going on

2:26:03 And it may be the rig game has already taken place, which was letting the Patriots beat the Chiefs because of the Chiefs and the Rams which gave us a game earlier in the year that was something like 58 to 57. It was an outrageous game of just nothing but nonstop scoring by both teams I don't think they wanted a replay of that so they... So you think its going to be Patriot's? No, I think it's gonna be the Rams. They boosted Los Angeles fortunes of football. I think it's going to be the Rams as well but maybe not for the same reasons you cite. First of all, The Patriots are obviously nationalists so that's... You can't win! If you're a nationalist, you cannot win and The Rams? What does A-Ram remind you of exactly? It's goat power. Goat power?! The goats will win this year

2:26:59 Well, greatest of all time. So anyway it's gonna be a good game I think yeah except for that I'm a big fan of the Rams Maroon 5 doing the halftime show? Oh my lib joke pals locally you have to either root for the Raiders or the 49ers specifically if your a liberal Nice now I'm through with the Rams because the Rams have the old Cal University of California quarterback And a big fan is you tease something in the newsletter which hasn't come up so maybe I can Spur you on with this He and now you didn't have any clips. I do have a couple clips that like to play really just two maybe three First we'll just play the news bit, and then I'm sure you'll come in this is about This is our little AOC segment

CHAPTER 35 / 39 Discussion

AOC on House Oversight Committee, Rule Changes

House Democrats added Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other progressives to the powerful House Oversight Committee. A quiet rule change now allows committee staffers to take secret depositions without lawmakers present, which Republicans claim will be used to "turbocharge" investigations into the Trump administration. The move is described as forming a "Trump hit squad."

alexandria ocasio-cortez· house oversight committee· maxine waters· subpoena· depositions· trump hit squad

2:27:52 And why isn't it playing? There we go. A few progressive names now given significant positions on a powerful committee, the House Oversight Committee adding Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other freshman progressives to its ranks Arizona Republican Andy Biggs is on the house judiciary committee sir how you doing morning to you thank you for your time what do you think this means well I think it's indicative of the direction that this uh this congress is going to go with the democrats Their goal, they've stated this. They want to at the bare minimum embarrass this president if possible they want to fully delegitimize the administration and certainly the ultimate goal is either impeach or force this president out of office and I think the OGR committee which is going to be very very involved investigations they just named four people who have that agenda for the Democrats. OGR government reform correct? Yes. Okay yeah I'm just reading this from Reuters now House Democrats turbocharged committee probes

2:28:47 Democrats in the US House of Representatives have quietly tweaked a rule on taking secret depositions. that will let staffers of House investigative committees take testimony from subpoena witnesses without a lawmaker being present." How significant of a change could that be? Well, what it does is it allows the staff to do two things. Bring in a whole lot more people to investigate and depose so that's going to create a logjam but the second thing it does it allows to essentially freeze the Republicans out in some meaningful way where sometimes the deposition is the only way we can get at the other side of the story, so to speak. So we're not going to be able to cross-examine witnesses and get the full story out." So what I'm seeing is AOC and other troublemakers are being put on these committees this is oversight but also the Finance Committee which will be run by Maxine Waters And they're going to give them these great subpoena powers which even staffers can now use This is gonna be the Trump hit squad or something

2:29:51 Well, I was thinking...I saw this going on. I saw the latest one and that's when I...that's why I teased in a newsletter who she got on this particular committee after being on the Maxine Waters Committee. I was under the impression when we first started seeing this woman coming out of blue AOC that she was gonna be sidelined like they do with a lot of people that are making too much noise and kind of an embarrassment. Right Pelosi being a genius at some level She's decided no, let's do just the opposite. Let's put her on these big committees where she can really make a scene with power Yes a peanut bar and all this other thing so she will either Be a big benefit because she's gonna ask a lot of tough questions which I doubt

2:30:38 Or she's just gonna make a fool out of herself and then she'll get to be relegated to some lesser position. I think Pelosi is letting these, and by the way those other ones that are on this last committee, the government oversight committee they're all also justice Democrats. Yes yes yes we didn't discuss enough on the last show that in fact this little operation was started by Chunk and his buddy and they both got kicked off because They were because they weren't on board with six years ago. Somebody said something that was misconstrued That chunk chunk, you know he went through the the rigmarole but I think it's this is this to me AOC she is backed she is backed by something very big It feels a lot like the Obama plan Certainly the timing of stupid Obama is actually quite bright so couple things. I'm going Because I've run into this

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Pied Piper of Millennials

In an interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez discussed her social media "clapbacks" and her role in leading the millennial generation. She defended her claim that the world will end in 12 years due to climate change, framing it as her generation's "World War II." The discussion characterizes her as a highly effective, "educated" force rather than simply "stupid."

alexandria ocasio-cortez· tanehisi coates· millennials· climate change· social media· clapback

2:31:32 When I talk about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which i'm going to do and it's going to be happening a lot more in the future. I just want you John you to understand I don't love her policies. I'm not a fanboy. I get this from everybody now Just because I'm trying to point out that she's something to watch and I don't know what I don't think they'll tell you why Because we just went through that two and a half years with Trump. I'm a little sick of it Yeah Yeah, so I don't want that. And it's interesting the same not you but when I would say hey Trump is going to make it all the way then people are like oh you big fanboy Trump and of course I was right now The same people who agreed with me on this are like your fan boy for AOC It's just mind boggling Just pointing out that she's a force to be reckoned with You can say she stupid every single time if you want

2:32:26 I don't think she's stupid and i want you to listen to at least one clip, and if you want hear more. I've got more because on Martin Luther King Day she did a sit-down interview in the East Riverside Church was huge church and it's in Harlem stacked to the gills and she was interviewed by what's it Tanehisi Coates He's the superstar. He wrote the Black Panther comic series, but he has written a whole bunch of... very famous author. Okay never heard of him I had to look him up. Let me just see if i have it here maybe Sure, he got huge fan base and that says he is probably famous We don't know every famous person that has niche fame He's famous and black And he loved by community

2:33:17 So in this clip, this is what leads up to the clip that everyone was excoriating her for about the 12 years we're gonna be dead from climate change and the way everyone aired it including Tucker Carlson is and what you would probably have said Is she says well in twelve years when he'd be dead from the world's gonna ever be dead from climate change And everyone's like she's stupid. What an idiot yes but In context, and that's why I want to play this whole clip. She is talking about what i've been talking about is the terrorization of millennials into believing that the world is going to end

2:33:54 And she is leading a pack of, and it's going to be very interesting. She's leading a pack of young people who can vote already or next year and she is the Pied Piper of the Millennials and she's definitely a force to be reckoned with So here we'll talk about, in this one clip it will take us up to the climate change stupidity remark about her social media. Her clapbacks which is hood slang for you and me John about when you slam somebody like a butt slam like hey I just slammed you what's interesting about it is that she only does this too blue checkmark people so listen to AOC I think

2:34:38 She's anything but stupid in her quest to lead the Millennials One of the things that I love about your use of social media and one of the things that makes me scared Is man you clap back at these fools, man? You be letting them have it Yeah, what's the Ocasio-Cortez standard? I had some of our organizers ask me this and i told the joke that... You hear that some of our organizers. So she has this she has a team She's got a team. She's got organizers and money there's money flowing there.

2:35:18 What's the Ocasio-Cortez standard? I had some of... Hey, I'm gonna ask for two and a half minutes. Instead of mocking the whole way through just listen and then you can mock her afterwards. I just want to listen because otherwise you miss stuff. Our organizers asked me this and I told the joke that basically it's like whoever is coming at me in my mentions with a blue check when I haven't eaten in three hours is who gets chosen. Right! I get woozy. So it's kind of just, you know... But it's also like what frame that we've taken for granted for so long should we be dismantling? And when a really good example comes up that's when I do that because when I clap back

2:36:10 reflexive self-defense. I'm trying to dismantle some of the frames of misogyny, classism and racism that we've just allowed to go on and I wish I didn't have to do this To be frank, I wish I didn't have too but I feel like our public, in our public conversation we've abandoned the posts of responsibility for a very very long time and we've allowed so much nonsense to go unchecked because someone has a Harvard degree and they're saying something or because someone comes from a certain family and there's things... Because someone has this like

2:36:54 And I think that the part of it that is generational, is that And millennials and people, you know Gen Z and all these folks that come after us are looking up. And we're like the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change. Your biggest issue is how are we going to pay for it? And like this is the war, this is our World War II. I think for younger people were looking at this and we're like how are you saying let's take it easy when that person has just

2:37:45 died from our cruel and unjust criminal justice system. How are we saying take it easy when the America that we're living in today is so dystopian with people sleeping in their cars, that they can work a second job without health care? And were told to settle down... It's a fundamental separation between you know, that fierce urgency of now the why we can't wait that King spoke of. At some point these chronic realities do reach a breaking point and I think for our generation it's reached that and I wish i didn't have to be doing every post but sometimes I just feel like

2:38:32 people aren't being held accountable. And until we all start pitching in and holding people accountable, I'm just gonna let them have it! Very interesting to see the troll room as well. Everyone's like, you can't wait to slam her down I'm just gonna say this woman speaks for a generation that was educated in the same way This indoctrination that she's received is a whole generation of people of voters who are coming up and it's gonna be really really scary when they get into real power

2:39:12 And she's leading it right now. Yeah, okay Well thanks for the clip uh I still think she's an idiot and the 12 year thing i didn't realize was actually She was...I thought she maybe was joking around and just threw It in they liked to rag on her but she said it Was our world war two climate is our world War Two yeah That's how its been posi- that what she believes thats What these children all believe Well, luckily not all of them. Yeah the ones in Austin the ones in California the ones in New York Luckily there's some kids other places that maybe have gotten a better education than that Oh it's actually okay It's the high it's the Ivy League schools where this is coming from oh I'm boss bring you that yeah The Ivy League schools may be shooting themselves and they had but it's also when Fayetteville Arkansas its everywhere

Jordan Peterson, Alternative to Patreon

Jordan Peterson announced he is developing a subscription platform to serve as an alternative to Patreon following the de-platforming of several creators. Peterson aims to solve the problem of arbitrary bans, though the hosts warn that payment processors like MasterCard often dictate these policies. The project is described as being in the "tricky" software development phase.

2:40:11 All higher learning institutions have brought this social justice warrior, all of this stuff into these children. You know she's talking about framing the power all of this stuff and she's there now and she's gonna hold that door open and a lot more are going to come in and she's not stupid she's just educated which is worse than stupid in America. Probably alright we'll see how that goes I have a couple of ISOs for consideration for the end of the show. And this first one works out perfectly, kind of...I don't know if i have the shortest short version of it but yeah I do and I think it applies to what we just heard. This is Peterson. That's wrong! Not bad not bad. I was thinking of using the triggered actually. Then I have Judy on ISO. Huh fascinating

2:41:15 I was gonna use this one. I am triggered. I'm so triggered. I think Peterson is best actually that's wrong Yeah, I think Peterson nails it Well, I like the Judy one especially again after that last little clip you played because it's so blasé. Huh fascinating It won't sound good in the end of show mix it's got to be the Peterson this better yeah, right right Yeah Because he's more adamant comes from me by the way the Peter someone comes from He says this all the time This is his main complaint. It's one of his thesis very sick six-second clip Jordan Peterson main complaint No, there isn't a job for everyone and no you can't train everyone to do everything that's wrong I have another Peterson clip about his About his new service

2:42:11 You know he's leaving or I guess he left Patreon. Yeah, and now he is setting something else up It just just a minute to listen to his thinking and he says some stuff that we would agree with yeah Well you know I think the subscription model the private subscription models not a bad one because it does leave things under your control part of the way that Part of the way that people like me and Ruben, and some of the other people that are associated with this hypothetical intellectual dark web have survived to some degree is by not having any corporate masters. And so preserving that which makes the whole idea of the intellectual dark web kind of suspect in itself because it indicates a grouping of sorts but

2:42:59 Everybody has their own private fiefdom in some sense and that does offer a certain amount of protection. I'm experimenting at the moment with the production of a system that would serve as an alternative to Patreon, but it's well underway... I don't know when it'll be launched because software development is tricky business but I would suspect in the next couple months we're hoping that we might be able to figure out how to solve some other problems that Patreon ran into At least were going to do our best not Throw people off arbitrarily, you know good luck with that First of all if he says the term as software developments a tricky business That's there you go. He's gonna when he says two months we were talking to year somebody is charging him money Yes Money and they'll be charging him money for the next two years They may be getting out of India who knows I mean There's a lot of ways ago. I it seems to me that if I was gonna do this if I was him

2:43:58 I would just clone Patreon. Just clone it and just have a different policy What's that? Why does he why does the whole mechanism have to be different because of the problems there's no inherent problems with patreon No, the problem is the processing its MasterCard MasterCard threw everybody off not patreon Or go to some other system and they're just a stooge in yeah But okay There's only so many payment processors you can use We like checks, we like bank transfers. Yeah we like checks and bank transfers. This is the way to go. They don't have it targeted so much. Stupid stuff. I don't know why he's doing this... So we have a couple of issues coming up

CHAPTER 38 / 39 Discussion

FBI Sting Operations, Islamberg and White House Plots

Two recent terror plots are analyzed as potential FBI sting operations. In one case, Hasher Taheb was arrested for a plot to attack the White House after a year-long investigation involving an FBI informant. The hosts argue these cases often involve the FBI "working" individuals with low IQs for months to manufacture a criminal act for a press conference.

2:44:46 I'm going to skip that. Here is, you heard about the Islamberg attack thwarted which i think is an FBI six week cycle? I don't know if anybody's keeping track of the dates but this looks like a six-week cycle scam and didn't get any much ink In the New York town of Greece, police arrested three men and a minor on suspicion of plotting an attack on a local Muslim community. The suspects were said to be in possession of multiple improvised explosive devices and firearms and were charged with criminal possession of a weapon in conspiracy. The suspects were allegedly planning to attack

2:45:23 the small community of Islamberg in upstate New York. Police discovered the plot after the unidentified 16-year old suspect made a comment to a fellow student about a school shooter. The other suspects are 19 year old Vincent Vetromil and 20 year old Brian Culinary, an 18 year old Andrew Crissel. Police say the attack was planned on that gaming chat platform called Discord. No there was a six week cycle then we missed it it was two weeks ago We completely missed it. This guy, the guy from Georgia Here he is. According to this affidavit, the FBI investigation started with a tip from a community member The person told police that 21-year old Hasher Teheb had been radicalized and changed his name Another example of how important it is to contact law enforcement if you see or hear something suspicious That tip came nearly a year ago Mind you, A YEAR AGO the tip came in And culminated today as agents swarmed Tehebs home outside Atlanta

2:46:23 Before this, documents show an FBI informant and undercover employee partnered with Teheb. And made him believe they would take part in the attack for a year. Alleged intent was to attack the White House and other targets of opportunity in the Washington DC area by using explosive devices including an improvised explosive device, and anti-tank rocket. Documents say Teheb wanted to blow a hole in the White House and take down as many people as possible He allegedly showed off hand-drawn diagrams of the West Wing. Investigators say Taheb also planned to attack the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and a specific synagogue that's not named. Notice not named chicken shit FBI didn't want it make any trouble. Taheb said that jihad was an obligation he wanted to do as much damage as possible and was ready to die as a martyr

2:47:21 As I mentioned, it was earlier today. Taheb thought he was trading his car for a bunch of weapons Those were fakes brought in by the FBI Taheb was arrested after that and Jim He is now facing a charge of planning to blow up a federal building So they... this schmuck for a year. You were talking about probably a guy with, now I want to back off. I wanted to contrast these two stories one it was kind of a straightforward story and the other one had all these twists and turns when you're playing FBI and it would the FBI angle constantly in there which is classic six week cycle stuff from the good old days and has always involved some guy with probably a very low IQ I'm guessing in this guys case

2:48:05 And they can get him and they make friends with him, and they work them for a year. Yes! A year? They work them for a year to make him into a criminal. Yeah... It's shameless. ...and then they let him trade in his car for what he thinks is weapons, and they swoop in like, whoa press conference! Disgusting! Yeah it has entertainment value I got the last 29 seconds now it's about the FBI as well And I wish I had, let's see if we can find the full clip of this. Tucker Carlson had a former FBI deputy assistant on talking about how horrible the FBI is and this FBI that have been investigating the president and all this horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible...and then this guy says something

CHAPTER 39 / 39 Discussion

Former FBI Official Terry Turchi, Political Spying

Former FBI Deputy Assistant Director Terry Turchi appeared on Tucker Carlson's show and stated that the FBI used to use counterintelligence efforts to keep "socialists" and "progressives" out of government. The hosts express shock at the admission that the FBI's historical mission included spying on and blocking political candidates to prevent "dysfunction."

2:48:54 Which Carlson never responds to, just thanks him. I don't have the thank you bit. Just never responds goes into break and you never saw the guy again Terry Turchi is his name listen to what he says about the FBI You know this unlike today's FBI where we're investigating the president We're coming up concocting schemes or sending text messages that was very different back in the day And i think we can expect more of this because quite honestly, the electorate in some places is putting more and more progressives and self-described socialists in positions. And ironically years ago when I first got into the FBI one of the missions of the FBI in its counterintelligence efforts was to try and keep these people out of government why? Because we would end up with massive dysfunction and massive disinformation and massive misinformation. It seems to me that's where we're at today

2:49:47 So did he not just say the FBI does this on a regular basis? Well I thought what he said was that in the olden days we used to put a stop to people like AOC and all these other would-be communists, but nowadays we don't. No! We stop people like Donald Trump it's the same thing He is saying the same thing We don't want the crazies to come into government so in the old days we used to stop them. They're still doing it! Am I just misunderstanding what he's saying? Yeah, i think so. I heard very clearly he says in the old days we used to stop these people yeah that's what he said but isn't since when did that say we do it we're now

2:50:31 I'm not sure what you're hearing. What i heard was that we used to stop these people in the old days and now we don't Well it's in the context of the FBI trying to stop Donald Trump Well, We used to stop the nut balls in the old days Now we don't. We go after Trump Is that what your thinking? He is another nut ball They've just always done this It's not the FBI job to stop people from trying to get into government Its not their job to spy on them and get them not elected That's not there job Maybe I'm just hearing it, but I was flabbergasted. You were upset by this guy! Well, I'm upset that no one said anything about it. Well... you had to go to break. Oh there's that. Special thanks to... let's see Marco Garcia and Tom Starkweather for our end of show mixes We always appreciate that Thanks everybody who helped out Many ways you can do that

2:51:35 And one of them is by supporting the work and becoming a producer. You can also become an executive producer or associate executive producer, remember us for that at Dvorak dot org slash NA.

The brain took the trigger Cell phones that have gone in and triggered people but it's a click on the position of the brain

2:52:59 There are phones that have gone in and triggered people. But it's an electrical manipulation of the brain. The phone rings, it took the trigger. You're saying well where is the phone? It's everywhere! It's 5G. A certain percentage of people are going to end up being killers and crazily half-hooked. The phone rings, it took the trigger. Electrical manipulation of the brain. Believing what the program clenched through your

2:53:52 running into the same kind of buzz saw. But when I look at the Republican Party, I see Tim Scott and I'll see Elise Stefanik. I don't see Steve King. So we just found out that she's canceled it. And I think that's a great blotch on incredible country that we all love. The Catholic school teenager who was wearing that MAGA hat caught on viral video in a bizarre stare down with the Native American elder. That at President Trump's direction, the United States of America became the first country in the world to recognize

2:54:29 President Guaido. I am running for president of the United States and There's a deal in the making and the more extreme Nancy Pelosi gives, the more likely we'll have a deal to assist family members To actually bring food home so they can feed their families that that's just outrageous She officially has more Twitter followers than Nancy Pelosi, Alessandro Ocasio-Cortez Stalin Hitler uh... mount saint john all came to power promising the same kind of things that uh... messiah gazelle carter's is promising wants to take away your right to wear whatever the heck you want and the american people are forced to pick between seven-year-old retreads in many cases who got us in this mess to begin with yeah she's afraid of the truth super left democrats
