About this episode

Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei dismissed U.S. sanctions and the arrest of Meng Wanzhou, asserting that Western efforts to crush the company will fail due to its technological lead. As Donald Trump pushes for immediate 5G and 6G development via Twitter, Motorola has introduced a radiation-sensing Moto Mod to mitigate health concerns. These geopolitical tech battles coincide with a major U.S. initiative led by Ambassador Richard Grenell to decriminalize homosexuality globally, specifically targeting the Iranian regime.

In Chicago, a grand jury indicted Jussie Smollett following a police investigation into his alleged staged attack, sparking criticism from CNN host Don Lemon and columnist Charles Blow regarding the media's initial acceptance of the story. Meanwhile, the Washington Post faces a $250 million defamation lawsuit from Covington Catholic student Nicholas Sandman, a case constitutional lawyer Alan Dershowitz suggests could threaten the paper's liability insurance. In international news, Haitian President Jovenel Moise faces violent uprisings over IMF-mandated fuel hikes, while Exxon and Chinese firms compete for control over massive new oil discoveries in Guyana.

Lara Logan delivered a blistering critique of mainstream media activism on Mike Ritland’s podcast, citing Jill Abramson’s claims that the New York Times operates as an anti-Trump paper. The segment on British public perception featured a Love Island clip where contestants expressed confusion over whether Brexit would result in the loss of trees. The show concludes with a look at Google Nest’s hidden microphones and Tucker Carlson’s reporting on the marijuana-induced screaming-and-vomiting phenomenon known as scrommeting.

CHAPTER 01 / 47 Discussion

Donald Trump, 5G and 6G Technology Goals

Donald Trump expressed his desire for the United States to implement 5G and 6G technology as soon as possible via Twitter. He urged American companies to accelerate their efforts to avoid being left behind by global competitors. The push for 6G is noted as a potential strategy for economic growth despite the lack of current industry standards.

00:00 I love my piehole Adam. I love my pie hole Adam. Preparing to fry and broadcasting live from the capital of the drone star state here in downtown Austin chaos in the Cluedio in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from northern Silicon Valley where the Sun is shining a global warming isn't full play. I'm John C Devorah I'm glad you've got it in full play we could use some of that over here in Texas its code

00:40 It's code. It's very code. Everyone should learn to code. Hey man, it doesn't matter we're all gonna get nice and warm the president said so this morning did you see his tweet? They're going to have nukes us close enough I quote from Donald J Trump on Twitter I want 5G, even 6G technology in the United States as soon as possible. It is far more powerful faster and smarter than the current standard American companies must step up their efforts or get left behind there's no time to waste!

01:18 6G! 6G!! Who the hell was writing that for him? He doesn't know what 5g is. There isn't, there's barely even a standard but as predicted on this show that's where he's gonna go for growth he sees it finally he says we need to grow the economy then we got to really push that funky phony 5g stuff and fry everybody at the same time it's a double whammy some people won't make it it's that's what it Well, you know it is a form of Darwinism. I got a quick interview just since we're on this topic with the founder of Huawei... You did? How'd you get hold of him?

CHAPTER 02 / 47 Discussion

Ren Zhengfei, Huawei Global Strategy and US Sanctions

Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei addressed US efforts to block the company's equipment, stating that the world cannot crush Huawei because its technology is more advanced. He indicated that if Western markets close, Huawei will shift its focus and investment to the East, South, and specifically the United Kingdom. Zhengfei also dismissed the impact of Meng Wanzhou's arrest, claiming the company's established procedures ensure it no longer relies on any single individual.

ren zhengfei· huawei· meng wanzhou· united kingdom· sanctions· 5g

02:05 Oh, I'm sorry you presented it funny. Okay go on This is the founders name is Ren Zhengfei and I think... Zeng-Zhengfei? Do you know do you and did I say that wrong? I have no idea I've only heard his name pronounced once Ren Zhengfei But it's a short interview from Europe, but I liked it. It was good retort to the president saying that we're going to be the kings of 5G and 6G. There is no way the US can crush us. The world needs Huawei because we are more advanced

02:41 Even if they persuade more countries not to use us temporarily, we could just scale things down a bit. And because the US keeps targeting us and finding fault with us it has forced us to improve our products and services." What kind of impact would it have on your business if the US is successful in getting many of its partners in the West to shut your equipment out? If the lights go out in the West, the East will still shine. And if the North goes dark then there's still the South Isn't that great? But don't worry, it'll be plenty bright with our 5G burning up the universe.

03:29 and jobs. Are you able to guarantee that you will not be pulling out of the UK, you will not be taking jobs out of the UK? We will continue to invest in the UK we still trust in the UK and we hope that the UK will trust us even more we will invest even more in the UK because if the US doesn't trust us then we will shift our investment from the U.S to the UK on an even bigger scale. Oh yeah, that'll make a lot of friends! Mr Wren I would like to I object to what the US has done.

04:26 This kind of politically motivated act is not acceptable. The US likes to sanction others whenever there's an issue, they'll use such methods we object to this. There's no impact on Huawei business due to Meng Wanzhou loss of freedom in fact were growing even faster so they caught Meng Wanzhou maybe they got the wrong person I don't know if that just a translation I wonder if he actually said it that way. So they caught her, eh whatever... Implying that she's kind of guilty of something but that may just be the translation. Yeah sure is.

05:08 They may have thought if they've arrested her, Huawei would fall. But we didn't fall! We are still moving forward Our company has established processes and procedures and no longer relies on any one person Even if I myself go one day this company won't change its trajectory forward He doesn't understand the situation at all Alright Geez There you go That guy seems cocky He's on the warpath man Yeah I'm messing around Anyway, I'll just wrap up the 5G since we're here anyway. Motorola has... they've... I guess they have some specs on their 5g Moto Mod? Moto Mod!

CHAPTER 03 / 47 Discussion

Motorola, Moto Mod Radiation Sensors and 5G Rollout

Motorola's 5G Moto Mod features a sensor designed to reduce radiation by shutting off antennas when a finger is detected nearby. This safety feature raises concerns regarding the potential health effects of holding 5G devices close to the head. Meanwhile, The Hague in the Netherlands aims to become the first fully 5G-enabled city in Holland by 2020, following earlier experimental deployments during the Seoul Olympics.

motorola· moto mod· radiation· 5g· the hague· netherlands

05:49 And it has a feature that limits radiation. This should tell you everything! So if you have your finger near an antenna, the antenna will sense that and will stop frying your finger It really does say a lot By the way this I think was the worst I think this was one of the worst press releases or announcements I've ever heard regarding a technology because it's exactly what you said. What did i say? That is gonna fry your finger if you touch it, this doesn't sound like something people want to put next to their head! Well lots of people will but not the no agenda peeps we're too smart

06:32 Hey, it was the only other 5G article I have is you know because of course everyone's all jacked up about having their city be the smartest city and in the Netherlands in The Hague the seat of the Dutch government by 2020 they're very proud to say there'll be the first city in Holland completely 5g enabled You know, I remember when we had the Seoul Olympics that winter Olympics in Korea and that was supposed to be lit up by 5G. And that was a big deal. Yeah! I remember that. It may have been Walways but I'm not sure it could have been anyone's Erickson perhaps

07:14 And it was like they made a big deal about the beginning and then everyone's gonna be supposed to be getting these 5G phones. Nobody got anything, there was no action on this network. It was an early stake in the ground. It was an early BS stake Fair warning for you John I'm on...I made an investment in the show? Uhh..I am on a new rig today Well this is what we have this sound issue then No has nothing to do with it Why do you have a new rig? Well, I'm always looking for... whenever I'm on the road. Are you on the road today? No tomorrow morning we leave early for Des Moines Iowa where we have... Des Moines Iowa is 10 degrees. Now is it good for cold weather? Let me tell you this story! I don't know will find out won't wait

CHAPTER 04 / 47 Discussion

Surface Pro 6, Mobile Podcasting Rigs and Costco

A new mobile podcasting rig featuring a Surface Pro 6 and external USB 3 monitors is being tested ahead of a trip to Des Moines, Iowa. The hardware was purchased at Costco following a discount, despite previous vows to avoid the retailer. The setup is designed to provide more speed and less physical weight for travel while maintaining multi-screen functionality.

08:09 The, um... Oh wait a minute. Stop! Stop! So in other words since you're going on the road tomorrow let's use all new gear No that's why we're testing it today You see this is I'm doing-I'm being very smart i mean i could swap everything out into heartbeat and be on my standard rig Well, it would be a couple of heartbeats But I just wanted to explain why when I'm on the road there's always less bandwidth no matter what you're using There's less than at home so prep time takes longer as is and the computers. I had Which the first one? I had was just a huge screen It's like I was like an HP 17 inch screen or something real heavy clunker because I just wanted one screen in the touchscreen

08:52 But of course it's a regular hard drive and it takes forever for the thing to boot up. Everything takes longer, and I can't miss more speed so I needed more speed... didn't want to add to the weight, physical weight And low and behold them at Costco, of all places, and they had $200 off on the Surface Pro 6 Okay, and so I got one and and I have a two external screens one is that I think I told you about this screen it runs off of USB 3 yeah really cool You just plug it into USB And then it works it works. Yeah So this rig is I gotta say I can do my nails while I'm running the show I'm stunned that you buy anything at Costco Why?

09:44 Because you swore that you would never frequent Costco again. I know, but then... In front of me! I heard you do it. Yes, it took a woman's touch and the keeper convinced me. Went an inch off the ledge? The keeper convinced me. Two quick mentions upfront for those wondering noagendasocial.com is currently offline And that is because Aaroner, who runs the whole shebang says there's some horrible Linux compromise thing going on that has been lurking deep in the code for eight years. He says I'm taking everything offline until I can get it patched or figure it out. He's a security expert in real life so you can understand... You're like, you can't even email me! I am taking my email server offline! You are pretty serious?

CHAPTER 05 / 47 Discussion

Skype User Interface, Silicon Valley Design Philosophy

The hidden user interface elements in modern Skype versions cause frustration, as menus and settings only appear when the mouse pointer is moved over specific areas. This design choice reflects a Silicon Valley philosophy where the UI is intended to "get out of the way" of the user. The lack of persistent visual indicators for audio settings and jitter metrics is criticized as an aesthetic choice that hinders functional use.

10:39 Is the Russians doing it? I mean, what... I don't know. I couldn't find anything online about it and he can't email me because he's completely off the grid! Can you go to a library maybe and send you a gmail? Maybe. Anyway So I've had my issue with Horowitz on Thursday. The DHM blog show. Tuesday. Every Tuesday, I said Thursday but I meant Tuesday and everyone knows it's Tuesday. It's actually Sunday. And so I'm talking yakkin' yakkin' yakkin', and he's not hearing anything

11:22 Or I'm not hearing him, he's hearing me. I hear everything you say typing so I said let me just obviously one of the there's just a setting and just Top of Skype there's this menu says options tools got all these things isn't it? Well where'd that go? I'm looking at is not there So I think wait a minute. I've probably had the wrong screen up. Let me look another screen now It's still out there what happened to all this stuff And so uh...it's gone So you can't really do anything. And so I'm looking, so I realized what are we getting? How do I look at my audio settings?" So the way you look at your audio settings it turns out is you have to take the pointer, the little arrow floating around on the screen and you have to put into the box, the giant Skype box and then up in the upper right hand corner... It doesn't show up. You mean it doesn't show up before you put your pointer over the screen. Right

12:17 Now can I ask you a couple of questions? You know how to code. Yeah, I've learned! Why do I have to put, okay. I get the screen it's like right now it's just a big blank It's just a big black thing with the picture of your little icon in the middle and nothing else Right There is my little icon on the side Now I'm gonna move the pointer into the box And now all of sudden your name shows up The little phone hang-up thing shows up A bunch of stuff shows up By the way if I don't move the pointer it all goes away Yeah And then, boom! It just disappeared. So I have to move the pointer again so it all shows up again What is the point of that? Why isn't this information... why doesn't it just stay put?!

13:02 Is it some aesthetic thing that I don't know you don't want to see all this stuff because You just want to see a big, big giant black box. You don't want to know anything So unless i'm moving the pointer around and also get to see any of this stuff now so that little gear up in the upper right hand corner Also goes away if you don't move Let me just say two things one A typical Silicon Valley credo is we really want the UI to get out of the way. The UI should get out of your way, shouldn't be in your way so that's probably what's going on there but remember Skype is... We use it just for audio I would say a lot of people use it for video and that's really you know that big black screen won't be there because that would be the video from your call participant

13:51 Onward. Nothing's getting out of the way, if the whole thing disappeared off the screen I'd be more appreciative but it doesn't so i'm moving this thing around So there is a little gear in the corner so If I go up to the gear and kick on It gives me a little classical windows menu that says window Then it says, float. What does that even mean? It says float and then it says audio and visual. John just give up! It's the Russians. That's what I want. So I'll go down there click on that. They hate you. Now I get my audio and video settings and I get the microphone showing like a VU meter and then I got speakers so now I can change from one speaker set to another

14:39 Or I can turn off, you know adjust speaker settings automatic all that and then there's something down here. I can't see I see it says test audio You know, I'm sorry you're so disturbed by it but you do sound good So let's just be happy it works. That's the, oh there you go! There is your Silicon Valley mantra and I think that is a Silicon Valley... Oh just behave! You're lucky to be alive! You should thank God for us existing! Now you are transferring your anger towards me and I just want to do a show! I don't get to see the jitter anymore, I don't get to see anything worse than this little audio video settings thing at the bottom you can see there is a little switch

15:21 But it's off screen and I can't get down to it. Oh, I can't. OK, never mind because do that. Wow! It just it was a lot better before. Thanks Obama. It was a lot better before. Okay, I got it. I'm little bored now. Let's move on. Let's start the show. Let's get something going people don't have the same anger you do. Okay so talking about tweeting here's Kamala Harris When she was called out on the tweet she made about that, about that poor... About that Joomla guy whatever his name is. Jussie Smollett? Jussie!

CHAPTER 06 / 47 Discussion

Kamala Harris, Jussie Smollett Tweet Controversy

Kamala Harris faced scrutiny for a tweet describing the Jussie Smollett incident as a "modern-day lynching." Video evidence suggests Harris may not have been personally aware of the tweet's specific wording, highlighting the common practice of politicians employing staff to manage their social media accounts. The situation is compared to Barack Obama's past policy of marking personally written tweets with his initials.

kamala harris· jussie smollett· twitter· lynching· roger stone· barack obama

16:01 She said it was a modern-day lynching and so somebody calls her out. They ambushed her in the mall or something, they asked you these questions and if you just listen to her it's apparent she did not write the tweet saying it was a lynching she didn't even know it existed which tweet what we are that about saying that it is a modern day lynching that sorry I really like this because if you see the video, she actually turns her head

16:44 And like, what tweet? What tweet? What tweet? She looks at the woman who does the tweets. Who does the tweets and then she kicks into automatic mode let me say this about that case! One of our favorites let me say this about that it's you know it's uh what did she say we have to figure out... It is still unfolding is what she said it's still unfolding But she has to go back and chew the people have to stop. And by the way, I thought this was the excuse Roger Stone could use because he got called out because Roger Stone who is arrested that they find they threw a gaggle around him cause you couldn't stop talking. And so then he tweeted something and they brought him back into court and shoot him out for it. And I'm thinking he's missing out. He can now say, I don't tweet my, do not do my own tweets again. I don't even know how to use Twitter because

17:35 I don't think half of these politicians are doing their own tweets. It's already known, we had insiders tell us that Trump doesn't do them all. What's the point if you're not, Obama never did his. If you remember when Obama had the Obama account? He would have it was the President Obama account he said in on the bio it says all tweets written by the president are followed by the letters B-O Yes I do remember that Yeah because he wasn't doing those tweets So if nobody's doing the tweets, what's the point of all this bullcrap? All you got to remember is when it comes to Jesse Smollett... People are innocent until alleged to be involved in some type of criminal activity. There you go! Actually I do have a couple of fun clips about this My favorite which we'll start with in case we get bored Is Don Lamont last night Oh man

CHAPTER 07 / 47 Discussion

Don Lemon, CNN Coverage of Jussie Smollett

CNN host Don Lemon discussed his personal connection to Jussie Smollett, recounting a cameo appearance on the show Empire where the two met. Lemon detailed receiving texts from Smollett's friend while the actor was in the hospital and speaking directly with him. Despite the personal link, Lemon noted that many in the LGBTQ and African American communities expressed skepticism regarding the veracity of Smollett's claims from the beginning.

18:36 So, can you watch this guy? Well Tina had a was having coffee with her daughter and so I'm sitting alone. And I'm switching back and forth just to see what people were doing and it was 75% was the small at case which I don't know, there's 20 people a week that get killed in Chicago. No one ever talks about that in Chicago? No one ever talks about it on the mainstream cable news? Nah nah this is much more important Yeah not one person has even mentioned But I thought the fun thing about Don Lemon The overnight sensation Is when he talks its all about him About how important he is How fantastic he is And of course hes gonna throw Smollett under the bus

19:18 Yeah, and for those of you who don't know what I'm sure this is worldwide news. Everyone's seen it everywhere in Europe everyone knows how important it... This is what consumes us here in the United States So I'm not so interested in the case as I am about How the media responds to themselves got a listen to Don here Listen, I just want to talk about these stunning developments tonight and the Jussie Smollett story The story that everyone is talking about And I know people have been wondering what I had to say about it, but oh yeah Don we're just all sitting at home Just can't wait to see what dawn has to say about it. John John please you know could please give us your wisdom out

19:58 And I know people have been wondering what i had to say about it, but here it is. So everybody gather around the television set Gather round the television set! Uncle Don's gonna tell us everything! And as you may know Jesse is gay and since 2015 he has played a gay character Jamal Lyons Why didn't he say openly gay or Jesse happens to be gay? That would've been much cooler On... Jesse's openly black empire What did he say?! He said as you know Jesse's openly gay. This is openly no he just no gay. He didn't say open he should have Jesse is gay yes, he's gay and since 2015 he has played a gay character Jamal Lyons on

20:42 Empire. So it's a little bit personal for me and I'll tell you why because that's when i met him oh, I was asked to come on the show play myself in a little cameo I got he said he- A little cameo? You know just I'm Don Lamond here to play myself on the shows this is where I met him introduced himself and he said I am a big fan of you know love your work it's good to have you here on the set So he introduced himself to Jesse and Jesse said, I love your work. Big fan Don you're the best! How can anyone say this about themselves? That's real ego right there. Myself in a little cameo. He introduced himself and he said that I'm a big fan of you know love your work it's good to have you here on the set

21:25 Very nice guy We chatted for a couple times after that. I saw him. I just I've seen Don Lemon drunk on CNN I just wonder if that's how it went Hey, how you doing? Hey Don, I really loved your work or was it more like girlfriend? How are you doing? gonna throw it and drop this meeting wouldn't do this I just have a feeling was a little different maybe when he came to New York a couple times. I know him not best friends but oh not best friends all of us I'd like to know him so I spoke to him while he was at the hospital, not best friends or anything his friend who was there texted me in the middle of the night instead hey called in the middle of the night that's something

22:03 They were not really best friends, so you know it was kind of odd. How many people out there are you have called people who you don't have a good friendship with at the hospital? You don't do it! I think he says his friend... that Jesse's friend texted Don and then Don called because yeah not really his friend Yeah, just whatever. I do know him so i spoke to him while he was at the hospital his friend who was there texted me in the middle of the night and said hey this happened to jesse i called a friend the friend happened to be there and he just he said oh jesse's here here's the phone so he told me in his own words what he said happened but i've also got to tell you to be quite honest that a lot of people

22:51 Including people in the community My favorite which community Don color and gay people Oh, it's the People of Color community or is that a separate community gay? People cut people of color. Is that a community you Don would know. Don and Jussie, they are the community but listen to how he's saying He can't bring himself to say I doubted this I didn't think this was bullcrap from the beginning No other people or people just people not done people including people in the community People of color and gay people

23:29 had questions about this from the very beginning, the veracity of this story. A lot of people were reasonably skeptical about Jussie's story some of the details just didn't seem to make sense and as we always say around here facts first FACTS! Facts first everybody That's an ISO. Yeah, I will isolate around here back first fact for a show that's right Hey, and it was weird oh this one check false. I was looking for him I didn't mean to shoot anybody so it's fun to watch people's heads explode And this was yesterday Charles blow of the New York Times see I think he's like

24:19 columnist, not a reporter. And he just couldn't wrap his head around it. Well listen if Jesse has done what the Chicago police say he has done it's not just that he is an actor Brian this is insane person this is a psychopath and there's nothing in his history to suggest that he's a psychopath That is why its so hard for everybody to... What do you mean in his history? Well, this guy never heard of this guy. I mean, I may have seen him on the show but i've never heard of this guy didn't know he has a history He's not a public big shot celebrity that's on TMZ all the time that we would know anything about him No was Charles blow one of his pals

CHAPTER 08 / 47 Discussion

Charles Blow, Psychopathy Claims and Hollywood Connections

New York Times columnist Charles Blow reacted to the Jussie Smollett investigation by suggesting that if the police account is true, Smollett would have to be a psychopath. The discussion notes that while Smollett was not a top-tier celebrity on platforms like TMZ, he was well-connected within Hollywood and political circles. Media figures appear hesitant to distance themselves from Smollett due to their shared community ties.

23:29 had questions about this from the very beginning, the veracity of this story. A lot of people were reasonably skeptical about Jussie's story some of the details just didn't seem to make sense and as we always say around here facts first FACTS! Facts first everybody That's an ISO. Yeah, I will isolate around here back first fact for a show that's right Hey, and it was weird oh this one check false.

24:19 columnist, not a reporter. And he just couldn't wrap his head around it. Well listen if Jesse has done what the Chicago police say he has done it's not just that he is an actor Brian this is insane person this is a psychopath and there's nothing in his history to suggest that he's a psychopath That is why its so hard for everybody to...

You know they just met you know He really liked it he really like Michael's work you know love your work Michael Charles Charles blow great name Love Your Work nothing in history that suggests that he's a psychopath That is why its so hard for everybody to... And by the way I think Jussie got around man there are pictures of him hanging out with everybody So maybe not you know to the public that much But definitely the Hollywood set and the political set.

25:53 I mean, how could he do anything crazy? I think these guys are covering something up the way they're presenting it. Well, shouldn't they just say you know He's in a community like them You know is a nice guy No, I think it's there so chicken shit to be associated with him that they can't they can't say how I'm really disappointed he's my friend I can't believe that he did this or if he did it or if true or whatever It is no no They just this is what you get in the community Yeah, this is your community brethren right here.

26:44 I think that's the kind of feeling that people have. I like that New York Times writer here, he took pictures with people when they asked He's so awesome So if you did this we need to know like are you crazy? Like are you literally like lose it or because nothing is adding up about Why do you would do this mm-hmm will find out maybe two more just cuz because we had cuz i have them and This is the part of the story I'm very interested in, which I haven't been able to get any more information on. Also this morning we're working to get more information about why Cook County State's Attorney Kim Fox decided to step down from this case. Cook County State's Attorney Kim Fox has recused herself from the case her office saying out of an abundance of caution The decision to recuse herself was made to address potential questions of impartiality based upon familiarity with potential witnesses in the case

CHAPTER 09 / 47 Discussion

Kim Foxx, Recusal and Alternative Theories

Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx recused herself from the Jussie Smollett case due to familiarity with potential witnesses. Alternative theories regarding the incident suggest the attack may have been staged to gain press attention or was related to personal activities that Smollett felt the need to hide. Discrepancies in Smollett's travel timeline from New York to Chicago are also highlighted as points of interest.

kim foxx· cook county· jussie smollett· magahats· chicago· instagram

27:37 I'd like to know what wouldn't be potential witnesses in the case, but that's very odd Very odd this well now as you're bringing all this weird stuff up. Yeah Well there's one other thing. I noticed just since everyone's trying to figure out what really happened and well The basic theory is sure The basic theory was that a couple of weeks earlier he got a threatening note done as a poison pen letter style. Oh yeah, who in 2019 still cuts out letters from a magazine to paste it on paper to threaten someone?

28:20 I mean who does that? When is the last son of Sam, I mean who's the last one to do that. It's crazy! So he sent this thing and he made us fuss about it and got zero attention because it was bogus and everyone sensed what it was And so he got irked by the fact no one was paying any attention to him He said this could happen to Don Lemon btw And so he went off the rails and hired a couple of people to do this, create this situation. He was just upping the ante to get some... he needed some press. TMZ wasn't talking about him! That is- that's that's the basic theory Yeah I see..I really don't believe that

29:01 I really don't believe that people do things to get press. Not this! Something else is happening, it was...I think it was an excuse? That he needed... Remember the initial thinking here in Austin was, ehh, he was involved with some weird sex thing and there's... But I'll tell you why I'm still hanging on to that He flew into Chicago that evening from I don't know where But he posted on Instagram, wow it was only a two hour flight but it took me seven hours to get here. I'm like what happened in those five hours? What flight was it? Was he really on the tarmac for five hours or stuck somewhere else and didn't instagram anything during those seven hours that he's not flying

29:44 What happened seems like there's an extra five hours. He did something and I think he exaggerated He was stuck in if he was coming in from New York, which I have to assume hmm It could have been delayed by a couple hours because of that jet stream incident Which happened but it's just these two brothers they seem gay to me. Hi Okay Well now she gonna bring that up? I will bring up another possibility which seems to be what they're talking about in Austin is And we have this situation in San Francisco, we had a city supervisor who was one of these guys. There were certain members of the male gay community who like to get beat up. Yes! This is kind of where Austin was going yeah

30:26 So they get big it's a community you said community. I love that Getting beat up community is the community? I believe and They get beat up, and we had a city councilman here That would one of these guys there's been other ones And but there's been a couple comics that were these guys and they would go look to get beat up and have somebody kick their the crap out of him. He was either just a couple of random guys or somebody, there's another gay guy who wants to do likes to beat guys up so that possibility is the real one but why would he then pin it on a bunch of MAGA guys because he was embarrassed about this behavior? No I mean maybe that was his whole fantasy... Wow! Why not?! Now you're talking hey as long as we're hey crackpot my name don't wear it out

CHAPTER 10 / 47 Discussion

Jussie Smollett, Grand Jury Indictment and Media Fallout

A grand jury indicted Jussie Smollett following a Chicago Police Department investigation that utilized significant city resources. Legal analysts, including Sonny Hostin, discussed the potential "chilling effect" the case could have on actual victims of hate crimes. The media's initial face-value acceptance of Smollett's story is criticized as shameful, particularly the emotional reactions from news anchors.

jussie smollett· robin roberts· sonny hostin· grand jury· indictment· chicago police

31:16 Anyway, last... That's actually not a bad theory. Well and then so he got the cut on his face... He was beaten by a couple of Trump ruffians. Well he got the cut on his face, he has to explain it and then he comes up with a story and then you think I'll just go report it and it turns out that cops like they take it seriously show me your phone like I can't show you my phone anyway here is the wrap-up for me this was Good Morning America It was Robin, is it Robin Wright? Robin... No, Robyn Wright's the actress isn't she? Robin. Robin, who's she's a community member and she interviewed Jussie and you know this is the in-depth interview where apparently he just lied so this very upset this morning and they brought in Sonny Hostin from The View who was an attorney as you know to Robyn Roberts that's her name to discuss this You know as a former prosecutor I will tell you that what is very difficult

32:10 about this case is many, many hours were spent investigating it. And Chicago is a very, very... This area is a very high crime area and so those police hours could have been spent investigating other crimes. What the police are saying right now that they didn't use resources that would've been used on other homicides but there are clearly costs involved here and any settlement would have to involve paying back those costs. Paying back those costs and also think about the larger issue here which is the chilling effect on victims crime victims coming forward. I spent many, many hours trying to get victims of crimes to come forward and testify against their abusers and attackers but they didn't want to come forward because people thought would not believe them. They thought there would be repercussions or consequences. This type of crime if true has a tremendous chilling effect. This touches all the buttons. It does. A setback for race relations, homophobia

33:06 And the best part still remains, not a single one of them says wow we have some part in this. he has almost single-handedly had this chilling effect on the LGBTQ community, on the black community... A lot of communities! On the guys getting beat up community. Victims and just there's already this divisiveness that we're seeing in our country a deal in this kind of case this kind of high profile case I think

33:48 It may be very difficult to come by. anyone who would ever make something up like this, etc. And that's what everyone in America is thinking right now! It's exactly what he said right there! We should be mindful he is of course entitled to the presumption of innocence but my goodness if a grand jury has indicted him he has been arrested No People are innocent until alleged to be involved in some type of criminal activity That's the CIA director okay Robin? That's how it works But he has never... He still says he hasn't done it

34:33 The brother, they're saying one thing he said and another. How do you get through that he says she said process? You look for objective evidence. You look for something that is beyond just accounts. You look for texts emails e-receipts videos surveillance etc. I'm not assuming a fight though but it is possible tell me if I'm wrong here but it is possible that in the statement he gave to police this morning he comes out then confesses and says I did do this that could be the path Oh, okay. I'm sorry. I'm a community member let me go Absolutely if you take responsibility Prosecutors always look very very kindly on that I always did but that doesn't necessarily mean you get a deal I mean it still could be in your pleading guilty to the crime You were charged with and he can't really talk to the brother because the brothers are not getting immunity here right? The brothers didn't the police indication yet No one occasion their lawyers saying they don't need immunity

35:23 Right, they're lawyers saying that there's no concern. Yeah fine uh the media is shameful here they already were because they took it at face value whatever was on Huffington Post and BuzzFeed and everyone's in the blue checkmark Twitter sphere and they're all like... And I remember Stephanie Ruhle crying on air this is the worst news I've ever had to read! I can't believe it! And just to show you how insignificant this is, Fashion House Burberry didn't think about it. Burberry is apologizing over a London Fashion Week outfit featuring a hoodie with a noose around the neck amid an online controversy suggesting the fashion retailer has pulled the item which was featured in its autumn winter collection called Tempest. So apparently they had a marine theme and they thought that this... It's a slipknot

CHAPTER 11 / 47 Discussion

Burberry, Noose Hoodie Controversy and John Lasseter

Fashion house Burberry apologized for a hoodie featuring a noose-like "slipknot" design during London Fashion Week. The incident is linked to a broader discussion on the loss of "gatekeepers" in large organizations who prevent such PR disasters. The departure of figures like John Lasseter from Pixar is cited as an example of how removing key creative oversight can lead to a decline in quality and increased mistakes.

burberry· london fashion week· noose· john lasseter· pixar· retail

36:17 Basically, but it's very unfortunate. It is very unfortunate like a douche Yes idiots Let's let's stick with the marketing person to Apple years ago and it hasn't been the same sense Is that where oh really? Oh, that's right was the woman you're going over to Apple She became kind of one of the chiefs over there now did she do retail who would yeah? Just love retail she does the stores. She just left sorry she just left Apple I Oh, she did. Yeah! Which I think is a bad sign personally. Probably... People like that it's not just always like to say there's always somebody in an organization that is received as the John Lasseter effect

37:01 I think you're gonna see a lot of mistakes made and a lot of money lost, and a lot of stuff that...in large amounts of money because Lassiter's not there. You know the big hugger over at Pixar that had to go because he hugged too many people. And it was politically incorrect to hug in California mind you! So he's out, but he was the guy because his name was never... He was never producing. It was writing a lot of this stuff But it was mostly a script fixer and a guy who would say no, no, we don't do that because of this No you can't do this And after awhile I guess it gets on your nerves You got some guy telling you not to do stuff But uh..you need those people and you get rid of him Next thing you know you're gonna see issues Toy Story 4 already has issues

CHAPTER 12 / 47 Discussion

Richard Grenell, Global Campaign Against Homosexuality Criminalization

U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell is leading a Trump administration initiative to decriminalize homosexuality globally. The campaign specifically targets countries where being gay carries the death penalty, with Iran identified as a primary focus. Critics suggest the move is a strategic effort to isolate Iran and find common ground with European allies who have been reluctant to reimpose sanctions.

37:51 I think that's another movie. I probably won't go and watch it anyways, no skin off my nose Lower on this oh i was going to stay in the community but yeah okay good because now I want to stay in the community too so let's continue with what you were Oh well I'm going to uh stay in the LGBTQ community although I believe it's lgbtqaapk The Trump administration launching a fantastic initiative To stop The aggression and hostility towards gay people around the world with a slight little twist. NBC News is reporting exclusively that the Trump administration is now launching a global campaign to stop countries around the world from criminalizing homosexuality, especially countries where being gay can lead to the death penalty. Ooh! What countries do we have? Hmm... Let me see

38:47 What country could be number one on their list? U.S. Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell, the highest profile openly gay person at a high rank in the Trump administration is unbelievable as a gay guy in the Trump administration it can't be true leading this effort kicking off tonight in Berlin joining me now from Berlin NBC national political reporter Josh Letterman who broke this story Josh tell me about what What propelled this? Why did Rick Grinnell take this on? Well, Andrea here in Berlin tonight Rick Grinnell will be kicking off this campaign that involves a lot of other US embassies as well as the State Department's Bureau that deals with human rights issues to try to get countries... Hold on a second. Do they have to put a guy with a lisp to report this? Well listen he's in the community

39:36 It's not the lisp is not the giveaway, but he is in the community. Bureau that deals with human rights issues to try to get countries that still outlaw homosexuality to change their laws what led to this? Well one major thing was the reported recent hanging of a young gay man in Iran something that US officials found there we go let's kick it off with Iran. Well this follows back on your old thesis from a number of years ago, you want to get something done start killing gays. You gotta throw some gays off the roof that's what people pay attention yeah we've done this show we have been concluding that Iran is the target of war yes a rubble-izing campaign Yes it's really on deck and

40:29 Well, let me just this like 20 seconds left. Let's see if there's anything left in this clip something that US officials found to be quite disturbing and they wanted to take action against this of course displays right into the Trump administration strategy to try to isolate Iran denigrate Iran and it helps the Trump administration find a point of agreement with European countries about Iran that has been quite lacking as the administration has been trying but failing to get European countries to leave the Iran nuclear deal and to reimpose sanctions. Europeans, yes! Very perceptive reporting from MSNBC. I don't think they know what they're doing. I think they just slopped into it. Why don't they...I mean, I presume that will also go after Saudi Arabia? No. I'm pretty sure they don't like their community members over there

CHAPTER 13 / 47 Discussion

Yvette Carnell, ADOS and Reparations Movement

Yvette Carnell and the American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) organization are advocating for a data-driven approach to reparations and black economic issues. Carnell criticizes media figures like Joy Reid and Charles Blow for misrepresenting the economic reality of the black community. She argues that individual success stories on television do not reflect the systemic poverty and lack of wealth facing the majority of the community.

yvette carnell· ados· reparations· joy reid· msnbc· charles blow

41:18 So, okay. Very cynical President Trump very very cynical. It's in Iran where they're killing them left and right stoning him nowhere else that's good well I want to go back to the black side of things because i got a note from the incognito He's still around he listens to this show but he doesn't like to admit it but he's become a... he just hates the show Is he on Reddit? Because he should go hang out there. Go on reddit! But, he did turn me onto something called ADOS and it's a new kind of versioning It's not big yet but I'll give you an example about his attitude toward us though. I'm gonna read from his note

42:12 Not that I'm expecting anything remarkable from a couple of professed white guys whose politics lean toward the maintenance of privilege. But here's a rejoinder for you if you care to reply to Adams' insight about Harris' great-great grandmother or great grandmother, whatever But he doesn't really give me a rejoinder. He gives me some info on this thing called ADOS, which is Americans... What the hell's the thing of it? American Descendants Of Slavery! Oh! And this is a new organization and you can find it at ados.com or something like that It is run by a couple people that are- they've got a lot of political chops They've been in the business for awhile but one of them does a little podcast every once in awhile

43:01 I'd love to get an interview with her. Her name is... Where is her? Yvette Carnell, it's at the bottom. I have two clips from her to give you a taste of her kind of ranting out this ranting was done before the election as one of our she keeps up the top of the page she also does a podcast both these guys do podcasts most of these people in aid us and it's kind It's a kind of backdoor into reparations and I think it is something to follow because the people have a lot of... It is still bubbling under this topic of reparations. It definitely there. These two may have, they may have different angle but Yvette is really an interesting person from her perspective And I don't even like playing these clips because these are like

43:51 messages to the black community from a member of the black, a member...a black person actually. She's on board with this community thing being bullcrap And I just want to play these two clips, which i thought were both funny. Let's play the first one. You know we have a community in collapse and why I despise the people that go on MSNBC like Joy Reid and the people that she has on her show is because day-in and day out they lie to black people They say no Donald Trump is wrong you're doing better than that look at me! I'm on TV Look at me this woman I'm interviewing she has a company

44:26 And they say we're doing better than that. And the truth is, they're lying and they lie to us every day and that's why I'm so sick. You know, I try not to personalize it but i'm sick of Joy Reid! I'm sick of the people she invites on her show. I'm sick of her speaking on behalf of black people. I'm sick of Charles Blow speaking on behalf of black people. I don't represent black people and neither do these people The data represents you though So what I want you to do Is just get involved in the data Everything I've said on here can be proven. Everything i've said on here, there's a data that supports it Don't just listen to people who are lying to you and don't just believe because you went to brunch on Sunday That you're part of the middle class Now why don't you like playing this? I think that's hilarious Oh, it is good but it seems It seems a little

45:12 It's a little harsh. Oh, we got to this from the community member, the incognito. She has the yeah well he didn't tell me to play these clips He just told me... what else did he say? A couple of nasty things. Nasty guy Ever since Trump got elected, a lot of he's become a negative force. So here she is again talking about another general kind of complaint of hers which I thought was highly amusing. Her basic argument is that black people as a whole are poor and And Trump has said this and he's bitched about the community being poor and they need help. And she says just because Trump said that doesn't mean he's wrong like everyone says, he's wrong cause he's Trump. She says he's right! And she trying to get people look at the stats because the stats aren't good as opposed to the bull crap that we're being presented by rich blacks but let's play the second clip. So you know one thing I wish No it's one channel only but i'll live Would just stop happening is

CHAPTER 14 / 47 Discussion

Hip-Hop Culture, Wealth Perception and Financial Literacy

A critique of hip-hop culture highlights the tendency of celebrities to flaunt material wealth, such as luxury cars, which often masks underlying financial instability and impending bankruptcy. This behavior is contrasted with the low-profile lifestyle of billionaires like Bill Gates. Former President Barack Obama is noted for making similar comments regarding the need for personal security over outward displays of status.

hip-hop· bankruptcy· bill gates· barack obama· wealth· credit

46:14 that all of these hip-hop people would stop just posing in front of a car every time they got some money. You know, it's funny we don't see Bill Gates right now he has more money than all them put together you...we don't see him every time he gets a new car pose in front of a car because it's just stupid It's just what children do so what you see with a lot of these black celebrities is that they're there They're children and grown people's bodies. They're still bragging about their cars and things they have And the thing is we know that, you know The bankruptcy is coming So I don't even know why anybody cheers that on because the minute the bankruptcy comes you say oh my gosh, I can't believe Why did he why didn't he take care of his money more because he needed to tell?

46:52 Because you needed him to be wealthy. You needed him to put on this fake and fraudulent thing, so that's the only reason if it wasn't for black athletes or celebrities we would know that black people don't have money If it wasn't for credit...if you had to pay cash like in third world countries you would know that your poor The reason why you don't know is because you can go get a loan You know, it's interesting. I clipped it and tossed it because I didn't think it was that good and wish I'd kept it Obama did a speech on behalf of his library or foundation And he said something very similar He said, you know if you're really secure about yourself... ...you don't need eight women twerking around in front of you Very similar to that! I'll have to bring it in for Sunday

47:45 Yeah, well I find this marks maybe a new...I mean i'll keep track of these folks because it seems that they have they have a message that's a little more realistic. They have a realistic message which I think needs to be achieved to get the results they're looking for insofar as people moaning. The problem is, all she's really doing... All she's doing is saying do your own research! People won't do that very few people who produce the No Agenda show do that but it's a small community you know? People just like to be fed stuff It's way beyond waking people up or their sleep Well these little lectures that she does are I think very

Haiti, PetroCaribe Fund and Clinton Foundation Involvement

The 2010 Haiti earthquake led to a massive international intervention managed largely by Bill and Hillary Clinton. Following the disaster, the U.S. military and various for-profit contractors took over reconstruction efforts, which critics claim resulted in very few actual homes being built. The current unrest in Haiti is linked to the plundering of the PetroCaribe fund, a Venezuelan oil subsidy program intended for Haitian development.

haiti· petrocaribe· bill clinton· hillary clinton· earthquake· venezuela

48:32 Snap people a few people. I'd like it keep your eye on that on her I want to hear more and thank you incognito for introducing us Via via to this now, I wanted I've done a lot of or as much as I could research on Venezuela Have some things to share and I really have to start with Haiti because turns out these two are related Now we've had these riots going on in Haiti What's going on? Why is it happening was that we in fact Haiti was my beat right after the 2011-2011 earthquake thing was 2011. I said it was 10 years ago Yeah 2009 Anyway, okay. I'll look it up a while ago

49:20 And I remember it being very odd because there was this earthquake that was very shallow in depth and it destroyed Haiti. Did nothing to the Dominican Republic, It's the same landmass, the same island they had nothing... Nah of course Haiti is a shanty town almost So it's always been problematic, but you got to have a lot of respect for the Haitians. 2010. A lot of respect for the Haitians as they're still today I think the only country that really kicked their overlords out being France although they were left with some huge debt that will never be able to pay off and I was listening...a couple people emailed me about Jeremy Scahill's podcast The Intercepted, The Intercept Podcast

50:05 And he had a couple of very interesting people on So I want to share some clips from this and podcast is really where we get the real info from these days But first let's go back, and this is you see did. I have Because he has two guests on in This Kim eyes came eyes Is a journo who works for? some Haitian newspaper, which also has a Brooklyn office. And he's going to give us little backstory on what was happening just before after during and after the earthquake in 2010. The first thing that Praval did when he came into power after his second election was sign the Petro-Caribbe deal with Vincente Rangel, the Venezuelan vice president

50:55 So, he signs this agreement and it took him two years basically to get the oil really flowing and get the PetroCaribe fund. This capital fund so the US now is pissed about this and here comes the earthquake and they say ah Here's a golden opportunity. So they basically took over Provost government the Pentagon who landed 20,000 US troops with no invitation from Haiti. No, we forget so quickly don't leave what a big deal This was it was covered everywhere We had everyone on TV shilling for the The Haiti Foundation, send us money. The Clintons of course this was a big deal. Permission even from Haiti sent in Hillary Clinton to start to stage manage everything and then Bill Clinton's running the Haiti interim recovery commission And together the Clintons played prominent roles after the earthquake

51:53 as for-profit companies and aid organizations rushed in to be part of a $10 billion reconstruction program. They passed a law, state of emergency and basically took over the government And started to bring in all the usual contractors Brown & Root Halliburton etc etc rebuilding We all kind of remember that and wound up I think the total tally was six houses that were built They have a mobile phone network, which is now the banking system. Everything is paid through micro-payments on mobile. Another one of Clinton's buddies came in to do that. I think there was a Clinton Hotel if I'm not mistaken? But I believe that's on the other shore so they... Well but it's where they have deep water and they can roll around whatever and of course if you look at the map

CHAPTER 16 / 47 Discussion

Jovenel Moise, Haiti Uprisings and OAS Geopolitics

Haitian President Jovenel Moise faces widespread protests following an IMF-mandated 50% increase in fuel prices. The U.S. is accused of using Haiti as a pawn in its geopolitical struggle against Venezuela by leveraging the Organization of American States (OAS). Haiti's recent vote to declare Nicolas Maduro's government illegitimate is seen as a result of U.S. pressure and bribery, sparking further domestic rebellion.

jovenel moise· haiti· oas· nicolas maduro· venezuela· imf

52:45 Haiti is just north of Venezuela, and that's why they had this pipeline And then all sudden the earthquake came along blew up that pipeline. That's all gone And why well looks like this deal? They cut with the carib which was alone, that was part of the problem. What is happening on the ground right now in Haiti? Well it's an uprising similar to that 33 years ago in Haiti under the regime of Jean-Claude Babyduck Duvalier. Thousands of Haitians made a pilgrimage today to Gonaïve, a city north of Port-au-Prince where three students were shot dead last November

53:21 They were remembered as martyrs at a mass celebrating the fall of Devalier. He ended up having to be flown out of Haiti on an US Air Force plane into a golden exile in France, but the rebellion continued for the next five years and resulted in the election of Jean Bertrand Aristide in 1990. So I feel we're in a similar period, basically the people are fed up with this neo devaluerist government which has been in power basically since 2011 thanks to Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton who facilitated the rise of Michel Martelly who

54:04 was able to capture the presidency, and then plunder the Petro-Caribbe fund that Venezuela had provided Haiti about $4 billion worth of oil revenues. Thereby have his successor elected who is Jovenel Moise, the guy currently in power so that people are fed up with the corruption and with the misery that they're in because the money that was supposed to go for development programs, that Hugo Chavez envisioned happening instead went into chalets and fast cars. So I think people are pissed about that!

54:44 So, you know they well I guess this is the little quick clip of why what is being blamed on this rioting in February the International Monetary Fund agreed to give Haiti 96 million dollars and much-needed funds But only if the government agreed to several measures one of which was raising the price of government subsidized fuel yeah by 50% so people are flipping out and We have a big hand in this and this is where it starts to fold into Venezuela with something called the OAS, the Organization of American States. Right that's the major UN of Western Hemisphere. Yeah well this is where it gets interesting The US basically sees Haiti as a pawn in their war against Venezuela

55:32 Cuba, they can't do it through the UN Security Council their usual fig leaf because of the problems now with Russia and China who are going to put the kibosh on that with their veto in the Security Council. So they have to go to the junior varsity which is Of course, the OAS, The Organization of American States would, but Cuba rightly calls Washington's Ministry of Colonial Affairs. And so they're trying to push through This Democratic Charter, which was passed on September 11th 2001. Which basically says if two-thirds of the 35 members of the OAS can vote together they can intervene in another country right now they have 19 votes Haiti voted against sanctioning Venezuela in March 2017 OAS vote

56:25 then there was another vote last year and they abstained. But this year, on January 10th finally the brow beating and the bullying and the bribery maybe came to fruition and they voted with Washington that Nicolas Maduro was illegitimate after receiving these four billion dollars in Petro-Caribbean funds. So that was really the spark that set off the rebellion we're seeing today, the people said come on! That's just too much!" So... We couldn't do it through The United Nations and I'm saying WE as in The United States so yeah you know let's maybe work this OAS there is also a new group called The Lima Group

CHAPTER 17 / 47 Discussion

Guyana Oil Discovery, Exxon and the Monroe Doctrine

A major oil discovery off the coast of Guyana has become a focal point for regional tension, with Exxon and Chinese oil companies vying for control. The U.S. strategy in Latin America is described as a modern application of the Monroe Doctrine, seeking economic and political influence over the hemisphere's resources. The humanitarian aid sent to the Venezuelan border is characterized by some as a "Trojan horse" for regime change.

guyana· exxon· rex tillerson· venezuela· oil· monroe doctrine

57:06 which is all these Caribbean islands and they also have, you know... They have pledged to not let Venezuela go down in flames. And a new member to that group is Guyana and this is what Rex Tillerson was all about There's a new oil field that has been discovered off the coast of Guyana It's right next to Venezuela Even though it's in Guyana's territorial waters Venezuela claims this and I think this thing was discovered in very early on 2008 or something. And no one really had anything going on because it was disputed as to who owned it, and Exxon under Rex Tillerson made a deal to start drilling there. This thing is supposed to be bigger than the field that Venezuela has existing and of much lighter...and therefore more valuable? Yeah

58:04 Crude is much much much lighter So everyone is vying for this and this is what it's about. That's why everyone is in there interestingly Exxon Only they're the majority shareholder 60% But they also have the CNO OC in there the Chinese oil company They own 25 percent, you know a little little bit of Venezuela a little bit of Guiana And I think maybe some French or something are in there This is what it's about that's what Tillerson was after and I don't know If the agendas crossed between Trump and Tillerson, but for sure now that I look at in context of the wall. I think Trump has a very if it's him or if its neocons or whoever the hell It is. I think it's him He has a very very cynical plan underway listen to what he said

58:52 This was in Miami. Hello, Miami! I am thrilled to be back in the state I love with so many proud freedom-loving patriots We're here to proclaim a new day is coming in Latin America New day is cut. He's not just saying in Venezuela you say in Latin America a new day is coming I think the plan is to Well, whether it's rubble eyes and rebuild but we're going to capture this This is the this is the plan and you need a wall because everyone's gonna be coming up north

59:31 It's yeah, well I know. I like it too because yes you need the wall because yeah okay we don't technically need the wall but we do need to offer this reason that yes future Yes and and now it's going to be a quick strategy what Trump did this is George Chikorilo, he's with a think tank. Was explicitly to pressure not just the inner circle of Maduro but also military leaders more broadly. He sort of gave them an ultimatum and he said you know would you like to live out the rest of your lives comfortably with your families or do you want to go down with this sinking ship? So it was explicitly a threat it's the same increasingly desperate attempt to split the Venezuelan military Trump in the Venezuelan opposition thought that this would happen immediately It of course didn't

1:00:20 And so now what they're really trying to do is to turn the screws and up the narrative and the rhetorical sort of fire toward Venezuela, to make it a broad historical shift. This is explicit interventionism in its attempt to—of course, an attempt at regime change, an attempt to add a coup, and an attempt to use this sort of fake humanitarian aid as a Trojan horse to bring down a government. what appears to be happening, all these military transports coming in to Colombia at the border saying oh we want to get in and now we have a...we got food for everybody. It's kind of like the Haiti strategy you know it was like Oh look! We got all these troops and military transport here that were here to help from the government don't worry

CHAPTER 18 / 47 Discussion

Andrew McCabe, Donald Trump and Venezuela War Claims

In his book, former FBI Acting Director Andrew McCabe alleges that Donald Trump discussed going to war with Venezuela because of its proximity and vast oil reserves. While McCabe's credibility is questioned, the sentiment aligns with Trump's public statements regarding the seizure of oil in Iraq. The administration's focus on Venezuela is viewed as an attempt to dismantle regional alliances that allow Latin American countries to act independently of the IMF.

andrew mccabe· donald trump· venezuela· oil· 25th amendment· fbi

1:01:06 Long-term strategy again this guy from the think tank, you know Andrew McCabe who's on his media tour right now for his book and the big headlines that he made was talking about plans to Allegedly invoke the 25th amendment to try to have Donald Trump removed as president based on it sounds weird But it's related his mental health or lack thereof But he also talks about Venezuela in his book, and I just want to read George a quote from Andrew McCabe's book about a 2017 Oval Office meeting. He says, quote, then the president talked about Venezuela that's the country we should be going to war with, he said they have all that oil and they're right on our back door. You think that's true? Do you think he said that

1:01:52 Oh, you know he says so much stuff it wouldn't be out of the question that he said it. McCabe is I think something of a liar. So I don't know if he actually did say that but... Well certainly fits the model. Fits the model. We'll use that model. Is that really what you see as the US agenda here George? They've been very clear about that, but I think the quote that you read is also very revealing. He says all that oil and they're right there in our backyard essentially. We're talking about the Monroe Doctrine. Hold on... The Monroe Doctrin? Yes James Monroe when he was president developed something like this. He's like the seventh president. It was very early on

1:02:37 He, you look it up. And he who's also if I saw a picture of him just to go as an aside here in the National Gallery there's a painting by Gilbert Stewart that superstar portrait artist and you can look at me stand right by this painting and look at me you see this is the biggest prick who has ever been president United States. You can just look at his picture and go wow! Just a total douche But he decided that anything that was in the Western Hemisphere period belongs to us. We have, we have...he has some...it was the Monroe Doctrine but it has to do with not sovereignty but influence. We have to be the primary influence for the whole hemisphere. Yeah. Foam finger number one?

1:03:23 Yeah, we're number one. They're right there in our backyard essentially right? We're talking about the Monroe Doctrine so this is about economics in other words it is about economic control but it's also about political control and I think we should remember that because part of what the Chavista legacy is not just the demand for national sovereignty, but the construction of regional alliances. In other words we've been talking about Petro Caribe but also other international regional alliances partnerships that have provided a cushion for Latin American countries to act independently. In other words, not having to appeal to the World Bank and the IMF for funding if they have a momentary glitch in their economy being able to borrow money from Venezuela or Argentina What's happened over the past few years is that this regional alliance has been disintegrated bit by bit You know we're talking about coups in Honduras

1:04:17 quasi-coups in Brazil, in Paraguay. Elections in Argentina and Chile and Colombia that have really helped to pull apart this regional alliance the Lima Group is the product of this In other words the new right wing in Latin America That has made it harder. And so in the absence of the US's ability to overthrow Chavez, as they failed to do in 2002, they set about working around the edges and tearing apart this regional unity and have been very successful at that which now makes Venezuela that much more susceptible to their direct pressure. Of course, the goal of that regional control is economic control, is the ability to intervene and have these resources.

1:04:59 these markets at their command. Yeah, it is... I think Trump has his eye on it he wants to go get that and He's probably a real estate guy. He really is oil centric and he said the same thing about you know when he was running Iraq all his speeches was always about we should have taken the oil from Iraq, yeah You know for all the work We did there and he really thinks that though all the oil belongs to any D signs Exxon CEO Tillerson the chief of an oil giant V oil company who in 2015 was drilling right there

CHAPTER 19 / 47 Discussion

Rex Tillerson, Corporate vs Government Adversarial Roles

The transition of Rex Tillerson from Exxon CEO to Secretary of State is analyzed through the lens of moving from the private sector to a regulatory or diplomatic role. It is argued that Trump may not have understood the adversarial nature of government service compared to corporate leadership. Additionally, the U.S. border wall is theorized to be a long-term strategic preparation for mass migration resulting from planned instability in Latin America.

rex tillerson· exxon· secretary of state· donald trump· china· union oil

1:05:40 Yeah, and so he assigns him as secretary of the state thinking it but Tillerson screwed up some real. I'm going to make it just a side commentary. I don't think Trump realizes or realized with Tillerson. Uh, I think Trump is like a populist in the way that he thinks he has popular thoughts that run through his brain for example when I was working at Union Oil and I went to work for the air pollution district It wasn't that I was working for the oil company anymore. I was now working for the regulatory agency and I had no trouble because I had inside information on how oil, some, I didn't have a lot of oil companies were so I had no problem going from a gut from a private sector job and then doing my job specifically

1:06:26 against the companies I worked for because it was not a, it was an adversary type thing. And it's not a problem so when I see people switch over from one side to the other I know that you can do it so when Tillerson switched from Exxon to Secretary of State I think Trump thought like every, like the popular Like the popular thought is he's still an oil guy, but he just happens to be secretary of state. No no once you became secretary of state, even Secretary of State and that kind of screwed up. Screwed his idea because he doesn't understand this mechanism which is a fact Well, I think if anything and if I can say anything good about this the I would hope that the reason is he wants to make sure this all up Give people some democracy before China does something Russia. You don't have to be worried about Russia Russia They don't have enough money to do this they don't have the resources China's there China is you know owns 25% of

1:07:26 Of this new license that Exxon has, or their 25% in the company. They're not going to be very happy because I'm sure they're thinking we'll just take all this. Well you know if China... If they keep cutting China in and leaving it so China doesn't really get a too much. That's the problem with China, so I think you exemplified that with this Huawei guy now all of a sudden he thinks he is king in the world. You know douchebag and I think that it's okay but China keeps doing all this they're kind of...they don't..they are not pure capitalists they do all kinds of sneaky things and so we have to be careful I think Trump is aware of that. I love The Wall Theory

1:08:13 Yeah, I'm subscribing to it. That's the reason for the wall It makes sense when you put this all together. So something he knew was gonna happen a long time ago probably when he's laying the best laid plans and He's that forward of thinker then so we have to start looking at his We have to look at everything he doesn't says differently well within this framework. I think this is important This is this this and Iran those are the two things and there's no there's all kinds of You know what I have some Iran stuff, but maybe we should take a quick break and then we can go into that so at this point. I would be very pleased to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John see the man who put the sea and AOC

No Agenda Art, Value for Value and iTunes Rankings

The No Agenda show's "value for value" model is supported by a network of artists who provide custom artwork for each episode, such as the "5G Cash Cow" by Cesium 137. This rotating artwork is credited with helping the show maintain high visibility on the iTunes charts. The hosts emphasize that the show is funded entirely by listener donations rather than traditional advertising.

It had the five and the G as $5 sign and the g is a cent sign with two stripes through it but its on a cow's hide And I dont think that we even saw that when we chose the art did you notice?

Really? I like the donation segment short. That's interesting. Yeah, well it was fine with me. Sir John Henry actually... Sir John of the Zika. Zika zika zika in Puerto Rico. Fajardo Puerto Rica. Puerto Rico. Puerto Rica. He writes in oh no say it isn't so Spotify this is my horrified face and he has a picture of the scream

CHAPTER 21 / 47 Discussion

Sir John Henry, Manufacturing Karma and Zika

Sir John Henry, a producer based in Puerto Rico, donated to the show while expressing concerns about the "screaming economy" and manufacturing capacity. He requested "Manufacturing Karma" for producers facing high demand. The segment includes a humorous reference to the Zika virus and the "Scream" painting, as well as a "goat scream" sound effect used in the show's production.

sir john henry· puerto rico· zika· manufacturing· karma· spotify

1:12:00 the famous oil painting. Okay, I had been meaning to advertise Wink Wink again but it kept putting it off this news certainly got me off my duff here's my donation for 334.34 why the extra dollar one? Well MMMK more money more karma it can't hurt and as John likes to say why take a chance Why take you off of Spotify and this screaming economy manufacturers are all over having trouble keeping up with the demand by the way You in the Spotify threat. This is the only These John's the only one who who responded to it Coopers seem to respond to it And he's actually put the image of this on thought on the letter The image of the scream painting its very funny

1:12:50 In this screaming economy, back to the theme. Manufacturers all over are having trouble keeping up with demand. Please give all the no agenda manufacturers some production karma and tell them that if the karma isn't quite enough I can help them free up lost production capacity." They should visit my website at www.changeover.com, changeover.com check that out to find out how I guess he runs a manufacturing jobbing operation so he does stuff for other people you know it's like a CMOS line you can make chips for anyone

1:13:29 Please don't go to Spotify. Love and Light. So he wants karma for the producers, manufacturers out there Yeah I'm gonna give him since there were two things i noticed in the note... I'm going to give these as well as an extra bonus for him May I have your attention please? Oh Zika! Oh Zika! Little baby with a little bitty head With a baby with a small head They're gonna have to make a little head You watch Did he want a jobs karma or just the regular karma? Where's the money? 1.9 billion dollars John? Zika zika zikazee John, did he want a jobs karma or regular karma He wanted a kar- no, no jobs.

CHAPTER 22 / 47 Discussion

Sir Todd Rathkamp, Knighthood and OTG Living

Todd Rathkamp achieved knighthood after a significant donation, requesting a roundtable seat with brandy old-fashions. Another listener, Randy from Somerville, discussed his transition to an "Off The Grid" (OTG) lifestyle using a Kyocera Cadence flip phone to avoid smartphone addiction. Plans for a No Agenda meetup in Boston are also discussed to connect local listeners in "liberal land."

1:15:18 Alas, I have nothing but the empty feeling in my gut knowing. I have been a douche for the better part of a year Please accept my apologies and refer to me as simply a sir Todd okay for snacks please include brandy Brandy old-fashions which I guess is different than regular old fashioned And she's Kurds brandy Old Fashioned and cheese curds at the roundtable for you sir Todd looking forward to it Ray Martin, meanwhile.

1:16:09 This is hand this is hand hand jobs and job. I look forward to the show in the newsletter that always seems to get through Gmail. I'm amazed, I don't want to talk about that later about the news or it turns out it's a very funny story. I'm amazed at the production quality of the show and content knowing that hardly any post-production is done, which is... Just as an aside. The only post production that's done is occasionally when the thing fouls up or Adam's thing stops and we have to stop. And edit yeah? And he will go back and then finish the show and then he'll just clip that out We don't do any post production beyond clipping out dead zones. And one opening

1:16:52 And we dropped the opening in. Yeah, so we actually spend the most time after the show trying to find something appropriate to open the show with? Yeah and that amount of time is about two or three minutes well maybe it could be up to ten. It generally speaking is pretty quick so you don't do post...that's the way we recommend people do podcasting does anybody else say this anything like this no nobody says this nobody says this simple Horowitz is the only one I know besides us that does this. Yeah, well I also beat it into him. Adam is responsible for that and Horowitz is better off for it because we don't do that little thing at the beginning and he runs...he runs it right from the opening to the end when that show was over he posted within five minutes

1:17:41 Then goes to bed. Yeah, no I still like to put all the tags in and put the art of course The art into the mp3 and all that stuff But yeah, but the point is is that we don't post this for pussies Anyway how any post productions as evidenced by how speedy it is ready for an enjoyment after the live stream? about 30 minutes max, demonstrates y'all's professionalism. Please accept this donation as a token of thanks and please provide a health karma for all the douchebags out there that they may be moved to feel even better by donating whatever they can and by sending a note of appreciation as well

1:18:19 Please keep up the great work, Sir Layton of Circle Town. Ray Martin." Sir Leyron? Leyron I think not Lay-Layron. Sorry, Leyron. Thank you very much! Sir Leyron of course would be happy to send out that karma. You've got karma. Health Karma No less nice Adding to the 333 dot 33 list is Randall Scheibel in Somerville Massachusetts three thirty three thirty three Jingles mac and cheese i love bugs my millennial stay woke Hey John and Adam, ITM to you both. I have a quick suggestion for listeners that want to get the newsletter but seem unable to as Gmail user, I haven't missed the newsletter since I signed up months ago and I believe it's because I auto filter everything coming from the no agenda mail chimp address to a no agenda folder. It never hits the inbox or promotional folders and allows me to quickly find the emails I'm truly interested in reading as a millennial and avid listener to the podcast your media deconstruction technology expertise convinced me to embark on the OTG life

1:19:19 Verizon, unfortunately has limited options. But the Kyocera Cadence has been a fabulous addition to my life. Nice! I think I see those things on Craigslist That's the flip phone. That's the flip phone, I think. The Kyocera is the flip phone. It's been a fabulous addition to my life and it saved me hundreds of dollars by not purchasing the latest iPhone. I couldn't be any happier with my decision. I'm no longer tempted to scroll through my various apps to kill time and have become way more observant of myself Yes there you go Now you're talking I, yes. It's fun to look at the slaves with their bent necks and shoulders hunched looking at their phones while they're walking holding a dog. I currently live in Boston would love to meet other no agenda Bostonians! You know we want to do a Meetup in Boston. Got it going yeah. Me me in particular as a couple of friends there so what we will be doing one but if you want to do something in advance is fine. It sounds like a good gambit

1:20:14 I want to find a meetup, but I'm unsure how many fellow listeners we have out there in liberal land. NoagendaMeetups.com We've got knights! We've got knights in Boston and all kinds of people in Boston If you live in Boston... yeah, we have a lot of Bostonians if you live in Boston or the surrounding area and are interested in a meetup You can email me at bostonnoagenda at gmail dot com BostonNoAgendaGmail.com that's easy And with enough interest I will work on finding a venue for us to meet up Keep up the good work and hope you guys work well past 2020 because you guys are truly, truly, truly The Greatest Podcast in The Universe. Randy from Somerville Massachusetts Nuts Yes thank you very much Randy and uh Good on ya for going OTG It really is worth it Living the Mac & Cheese Life We eat bugs You eat bugs Nothing like French if you wanna try

CHAPTER 23 / 47 Discussion

Jobs Karma, PC Magazine and Houston Traffic

Listeners requested "Jobs Karma" for various upcoming interviews and career changes. One donor from Houston discovered the show after reading about John C. Dvorak's firing from PC Magazine, which was reportedly due to his criticism of 5G networks. Another listener from the University of Groningen uses the show as "ammunition" to avoid being sucked into the academic "Dimension B" mindset.

Never heard it this jerk and only written for 20-30 years Nor have I ever read PC Magazine.

Alternate Universe Machine, Genie Energy and OCS Karma

A Gen Z listener shared a success story regarding an investment in Genie Energy, a company with drilling rights in the Golan Heights whose advisory board includes Dick Cheney. The listener donated profits from the trade before heading to the Marine Corps Officer Candidate School (OCS) in Quantico. The hosts granted "OCS Karma" for the grueling 10-week summer training program.

Yeah Genie Energy, their parent companies is publicly traded with people like Jacob Rothschild and Dick Cheney on the advisory board it seemed like an interesting investment opportunity so I bought some shares at $4.23 And I sold some of my position last month at 950.

CHAPTER 26 / 47 Discussion

Jill Abramson, Vice Media Oppo Campaign Allegations

Former New York Times editor Jill Abramson alleged on CNN that Vice Media ran an "oppo campaign" against her book after she provided them with galley proofs for fact-checking. Abramson claims Vice strategized to discredit the book rather than correcting errors. Vice is described as an entity that hires political war room strategists rather than traditional PR spokespeople to handle its public image.

jill abramson· vice media· brian stelter· cnn· plagiarism· opposition research

1:37:11 Slash N A So much deconstruction for you to take home, take out on the road and propagate! Our formula is this. We go out we hit people in the mouth Shut up Sleep All right, you were going to say something. We're talking about it in during the donation segment. Jill Abramson. Yes there you go yeah there's a I don't have the clip of her but she apparently appeared on one of the CNN shows and it was discussed on Canada Land another podcast which is a good podcast that they seem to be

1:37:59 There seemed to be bashers of Trudeau, the Trudeau bashers. Which is not unusual in Canada but they did bring this thing up because somebody heard this discussed on I think Seltzer's Seltzer Water Show. And it's interesting because it does call for a little discussion and everything that is said here does not surprise me in the least. She was on, CNN has a media critic, media reporter Brian Stelter and she was kind of defending herself she says no mistakes were made but its not technically plagiarism I'm going to fix it in the e-book in the next version blah blah blah blah blah But then she said something that really caught my attention She said you know Vice

1:38:39 who now are pointing out all of these errors I made about their staff and about their history, and all these little – you know, the color of the shoes of their host. They had my manuscript for a long, long time because I wanted them to have a chance to let me know if I got anything wrong. And they were very difficult to reach there. They didn't get return my emails. And I later learned said Jill Abramson on CNN that they were running an oppo campaign and they were calling other people in the book essentially trying to strategize a way to discredit the book. And this is kind of a maneuver that I've always thought was possible, but I'm unaware of it playing out if in fact this is true. I didn't even think that you could do that? Well here's how you do it like you ask somebody like I'm writing about you did I get anything wrong here's what I wrote

1:39:26 and they see that you got something wrong. And they say, You know what? Jill Abrams like why should we help her make a factual book it's still going to make us look like shit correct all of our errors Why don't we let her publish a flawed book And then we can rip her book to shreds on the basis of how flawed it is. Wow, if that is in fact- That's long game! What happened and what makes this really interesting to me is that I am aware that when it comes to their PR flacks Vice doesn't hire smiley spokespeople they hire political war room strategists like real sharks who are very well versed in dirty tricks and I kind of feel like this is a thread of the story that got dropped too soon Huh okay

1:40:09 Not a bit of that surprises me. And it's a very good strategy, uh, vice being we don't have much respect for them as entities and we think a lot of their stuff is at least I do. Oh they're an advertising agency is what they are. They're an ad agency for millennials. But yeah then apparently...I guess Abramson or Abrams, I can never remember. But I guess Jill sent them the galley proofs instead of just the sheets that applied to them and once they got... That means they read the whole book and then could find other people that were getting slammed and then they could put up an oppo as a man is the guy says opposition campaign against the book in advance of his publication. And then also

CHAPTER 27 / 47 Discussion

Lara Logan, Mike Ritland Podcast and Media Criticism

Lara Logan appeared on a three-and-a-half-hour podcast with former Navy SEAL Mike Ritland, where she delivered a scathing critique of the mainstream media. Logan discussed her experiences in war zones, her assault in Tahrir Square, and her departure from CBS following a controversial Benghazi report. She argued that the media has abandoned objectivity to become political activists and propagandists.

lara logan· mike ritland· navy seal· 60 minutes· benghazi· middle east

1:40:54 Not help change any errors and then you can bitch about the errors very very very coy well They better not do that to my book Or yours for that matter I'll punch him away send him the things screw them. Well since we're talking about media, then I have it was almost impossible to pull a clip Laura Logan who we remember from her sexual attack. She was sexually attacked in Tahrir Square during the Egyptian Arab Spring uprising and I... And she was on a... Then after that, more briefing she phonied up not completely but she phonied up an interview that got her put on hiatus for about a year at 60 minutes then they brought her back Yeah it was about Benghazi

1:41:45 Yeah, something and then they brought her back. But I but but I beg to differ I went back and looked at she didn't phony up an interview She said something she shouldn't have said Okay. Well that makes more sense Yes And in fact, well he was accused of phoning up an interview Well, I recall certainly myself being very skeptical and like who is this woman who says she was because she's beautiful You know it's like what was she doing there? Was she really assaulted? I think I was very flippant about it Were and I was skeptical too. And the funny thing is now that she's not working there She's got black hair Yeah, which looks a hell of a lot better? She looks great as a brunette much better Anyway The reason why I bring her up is she did a three-and-a-half hour podcast with Mike drop Mike Ritland Who's a things ex Navy SEAL they know he sealed I would refer to him as the cusser Did you see the whole interview?

1:42:40 I'm not going to watch three and a half hours. Somebody sent me, probably the same guy who sent you the clip, he says listen to this! And it says Logan goes on about certain things everybody picked up on this and i was... He wouldn't give me a time code? No, I did not listen to the whole interview. I'm sure it was fascinating to a point but Three and a half hours available to me to listen to this guy in her. Well, I did over the course of two days That's what that's why people support the show so I can do these kinds of things I only really have the one clip that everyone is talking about because you can't clip anything it because the segments are long It's very relaxed. It's very in-depth. I have I have to say incredible respect for her

1:43:23 For everything she said, everything that she's done and I'm sure it's true. Just the way you know you can tell when you're listening to someone really explain tell stories about their life and yeah She pretty much lived in the Middle East for the past or ten years before the attack It's really worth watching She's really endearing It took me a while to figure it out. She because she's been in war zones all the time. She'd been in Iraq Afghanistan Pashtun anywhere there's there's a war she was there and she's been blown up. She's beaten up. She Raped and she goes into quite graphic detail about The physical harm that was done to her I recommend everybody watch this because of course, she's not going to be welcome in the mainstream anymore but

1:44:12 Forever you know this went around social media as scorched earth interview Yeah, well that's what bugged me because I was watching it. That wasn't that's bullshit by the way So it wasn't concerned but it was I found it to be a too long, didn't watch issue and i didn't really like this guy, this interviewer who seems you know... It's like hey! I'm on a podcast so let me just cuss as much as I can because I'm cool. No no I think you're seeing that completely wrong This is he's a Navy SEAL who went through a lot of shit and she did a piece on him for 60 minutes Yeah that's why they know each other And he's very popular cause he's just a dude

1:44:55 Now, at a certain point it's actually very cute. So this video is just rolling and the dog comes in and then they just keep rolling while they're trying to get the dog out... I liked it a lot! Very interesting to watch. They really- I don't even think we have time for that. I'll play the clip but it's only 1 minute 45 seconds because not everyone has heard it But she goes into great depth about how shit the media is Everything we say on this show she agrees with But she goes much, much further about the lies of the weapons of mass destruction. It's just all across the spectrum—very worth the time if you can to listen to it. I have to say at the same time it is very easy for her to do this because she's married to a very successful wealthy guy who is a military contractor

CHAPTER 28 / 47 Discussion

Media Bias, Registered Democrats and Trump Coverage

Lara Logan cited statistics claiming 85% of journalists are registered Democrats, leading to a lack of "gray area" in news coverage. She referenced Jill Abramson's admission that the New York Times became an "anti-Trump paper of record," producing dozens of negative stories daily. Logan argued that this distortion of reality proves the media is no longer performing its job of objective reporting.

media bias· democrats· donald trump· jill abramson· objectivity· journalism

1:45:46 Now, so she's got those two were kind of made for each other. It's very easy when you know that you can not work ever again and I think that she probably doesn't want to work for mainstream. Maybe she'll start doing a podcast! You never know. But here is a little excerpt just to give you a taste but it's well worth watching the whole thing. And the media everywhere is mostly liberal not just in the US But in this country, 85% of journalists are registered Democrats. So that's just a fact right? No one is registering Democrat when they're really a Republican so the facts are on the side of what you just stated most journalists are left or liberal or Democrat or whatever word you want to give it How do you know

1:46:35 you're being lied to. How do you know you're being manipulated? How do you know there's something not right with the coverage when they simplify it all and there is no gray, it's all one way. Well life isn't like that if it doesn't match real life its probably not somethings wrong right so for example you know all the coverage on Trump all of time is negative There's nothing, there is no mitigating policy or event or anything that has happened since he was elected. That is out there in the medias that you can read about right? Well, that tells you that distortion of way things go in real life because although the media has always been historically always been left leaning we've abandoned

1:47:29 our pretense or at least the effort to be objective today. The former executive editor of the New York Times has a book coming out, Jill Abramson and she says we would do I don't know, dozens of stories about Trump every single day and every single one of them was negative. She said we have become the anti-Trump paper of record. Well that's not our job. That is a political position. That means we've become political activists in a sense and some could argue propagandists right? And there is some merit to that. You know, as I was watching her she's very petite. She's pretty huge really very deep cut decollete in this interview and as she was sitting kind of twisted you know their breasts are really exposed and i'm looking like how does she how did she survive? You know the bottom line is just a kick-ass woman and she uses everything she has as a woman to get the story she wants. I'm incredibly impressed

CHAPTER 29 / 47 Discussion

China Belt and Road Initiative, Pakistan and Saudi Investment

China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is facing financial strain as Pakistan struggles to repay $60 billion in infrastructure loans. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman recently visited Pakistan, pledging $20 billion in investment, which is seen as a potential conflict with Chinese interests. The shift in alliances is theorized to be part of a broader U.S.-orchestrated strategy to counter Chinese expansion in the region.

xi jinping· belt and road initiative· pakistan· mohammed bin salman· saudi arabia· imran khan

1:48:30 And it's worth watching and you can watch a lot of things tonight. You can watch, you know some Avengers whatever... Watch this woman! That's my recommendation to the show notes. NoahNAShowNotes.com Sorry? The Avengers are on TV tonight Let's talk about China for a second. China appears to be in some trouble with the BRI, the Bridge and Road Initiative also known as Three Belts No Road and that's how we look at it. That's what we call it They got trains they got waterways they're trying to do all kinds of economic corridors but there is a little problem actually kind

1:49:11 a big one looming right now. Belt and Road Initiative would fail, and it's starting to fail now. Xi Jinping can still put more money into it but really we're sort of close to the end for the last four or five months people in China have been severely questioning these

1:49:47 soundness of this and now those calls are growing louder and louder. And we're seeing something very interesting in Pakistan, where China has committed $60 billion or so to the Pakistan economic corridor. The Pakistanis can't pay that back! And China is now got a serious problem about what to do with its big exposure to its next-door neighbor Yeah, this is where it gets very interesting. So Pakistan took 60 billion to let them come in and do some railroad and so maybe some fiber whatever else hey you're our neighbor anyway here's 60 billion and then Pakistan was alone because if they want it back right well guess what just happened? This is a

1:50:33 MBS, Mohammed bin Salman. He's not welcome in many places but he is welcome in Pakistan. We believe that Pakistan gonna be very very important country in the coming future and we want to be sure that you are part of that so we are waiting for that kind leadership to partner with and build a lot things together Today we signed the MOUs. We believe it's the amount of that kind of investment is 20 billion US dollars Saudi Arabia has always been a friend for Pakistan This is Khan, the head honcho of Pakistan Saudi Arabia has been a friend when Pakistan has needed friends So Saudi Arabia has always been a friend in need

1:51:18 which is why we value it so much. Don't you see some kind of conflict brewing here? We've got all kinds of shit happening. Well, when you first ran the first clip I'm immediately thinking this is about the belt of three belts and no roads or whatever five...I can't remember what it was. Uh, I am assuming American meddling. Or some orchestration for sure! I think meddling and

1:52:02 I would take it even further. The CIA lost most of its people in China due to some foul up at Langley. Hillary's email! That could be it, but whatever... It was a huge loss and I think we're trying to get back on track over there and we have to stop the Chinese as fast- I think there is something up and anytime you see Ben Salman going out or doing something, I'm thinking Trump Because these guys are like thick as thieves, these two. And so I suspect that this was orchestrated now that I'm taking the long view of Trump instead of the short view of Trump... I'm getting very suspicious about some of this stuff He's playing 3D chess man! With a manga hat on! He may look dumb but he may be just as good a warmonger as anybody else

CHAPTER 30 / 47 Discussion

Nicholas Sandman, Washington Post Defamation Lawsuit

Lawyers for Covington Catholic student Nicholas Sandman filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit against the Washington Post. The suit alleges the paper engaged in "modern-day McCarthyism" by smearing the teenager to advance an anti-Trump agenda. The legal action focuses on the Post's failure to review full video footage of the encounter with Nathan Phillips and the Black Hebrew Israelites.

nicholas sandman· washington post· defamation· covington catholic· libel· nathan phillips

1:53:02 We got a good win. When you're talking about the, we had Laura on there moaning about the New York Times and the other places...we do have to mention this lawsuit which is... Oh! The kids? The Catholic school kids? Yeah. $250 million dollars. Funniest thing I've seen for a long time. Where's my clip on this?! And Dersh, Dersh, Dersh. Essentially alleging that the Washington Post is guilty of libel Well I think they have a reasonable case This is Alan Dershowitz he's a liberal No here no stop stop stop that clip

1:53:45 MAGA Kid overview on Fox. This is a clip that starts, gives the first explanation. Tonight lawyers representing Covington Catholic student Nicholas Sandman have just filed a bombshell defamation suit against The Washington Post. Trace Gallagher joining us now with these late breaking details tonight. Hi Trace! I'm Arthur. The 22-page $250 million lawsuit claims the Washington Post participated in a modern day form of McCarthyism by targeting and bullying Nick Sandman for three days. Sandman's lawyers go on to describe the teen as an innocent secondary school child, and accuse the newspaper of ignoring journalistic standards to advance an agenda against President Trump.

1:54:27 adding that the Post used its quote, vast financial resources to enter the bully pulpit by publishing a series of false and defamatory print and online articles which effectively provided worldwide megaphone to smear young boy who was in its view acceptable casualty in their war against the president. Sandman was widely criticized and vilified in media after cell phone video showed him staring down Native American Nathan Phillips But the post and numerous other media outlets apparently failed to look at the entire two hours of video, and used small clips to paint Sandman and his high school classmates as instigators. Turned out the altercation started with a group of black Hebrew Israelites who called the students extremely offensive terms we cannot repeat, and also called them crackers and incest children

1:55:18 So that begins it and this is by the way as this begins, and this is going to continue stuff like this. Laura Logan and And Jill Abramson, both have now testified for the defense or the plaintiff depending on what side this lawsuits are for the plaintiffs I guess. Because this is now becoming a meme that media is just a bunch of Trump haters doing it for everything's political and they're not even journalists anymore. And Dershowitz addresses this on... I don't remember who was on the show. It's important to say Dershowitz is the constitutional lawyer, he was extremely well respected and he has always been the go-to constitutional lawyer for this show He supported Hillary, he is liberal, he is a democrat and he has been completely shunned! He is no longer in the community But he still gets on air Oh yeah, must have been Fox

CHAPTER 31 / 47 Discussion

Alan Dershowitz, Libel Law and Media Responsibility

Constitutional lawyer Alan Dershowitz analyzed the Sandman lawsuit, noting that the student is not a public figure and therefore has a stronger case for libel. He suggested that if the Washington Post loses, its liability insurance could be at risk, forcing a more conservative approach to future reporting. The $250 million figure is noted as being equal to the price Jeff Bezos paid for the newspaper.

alan dershowitz· libel· defamation· washington post· jeff bezos· insurance

1:56:16 No, it wasn't. It was the Hill TV I think. The Hill TV. Essentially alleged that the Washington Post is guilty of libel? Well, I think they have a reasonable case. I mean, the world was guilty of libel. The way people jump to conclusions today without listening to all the facts... These poor kids seem to be doing exactly the right thing And then suddenly, because they are thought to be white privileged kids. Suddenly everybody's ganging up on them the interest is to see how the case unfolds I mean they're asking for a lot of money i don't think that's going to be taken too seriously well i think it's 250 million dollars or something like that but i do think that they have a significant case and it would be interesting to see how

1:57:04 how the post defends against their reporting in the case. It's important to air this issue out in the public and one of the functions that a suit like this has is delay it all out in the public book, but media has to be responsible for their reporting up quickly when you have kids who really have no ability generally to defend themselves against me reporting so I'm interested to see what the post says and how it justifies a reporting that turned out to be less than accurate. That was kind of disappointing I expected a little more legal analysis of libel. Well, he does bring up a little more... He actually jumps back in with the second clip. They're cutting him off and then he jumps back in with this. Going back to something we said earlier you know this kid is not a public figure uh he didn't choose to run for office he's a kid in school who's applying for colleges and his reputation has been diminished

1:58:00 eyes of some, and I think you have to distinguish between a high school kid and somebody who is the President of the United States or governor of state or justice in the Supreme Court. He didn't choose to be in this situation it was thrust on him by the circumstances so I have a lot of sympathy for this young man. Oh you know this now explains why keep seeing headlines of Nancy Pelosi quietly deletes tweets Which is a great headline as if someone's going in the dark of night to go in and quietly But they all said stuff, and I think you know. I don't know it Is there real lawsuit? Is that is there real liability here for for the for woppa woppa woppa woppa woppa Yeah, how does it work 150 million he thinks but

1:58:49 You get that kid out, because the kid when you see him talking on these interview shows where they also didn't help him much. Savannah Guthrie's interview of it was cruel. Very cruel and I thought she was just heartless. She was horrible The kid is a very sympathetic character if he can go up on stage i don't think he'll be able to hold it together He's just like, you know some very sensitive kid who started crying. I mean their number could go skyrocketing they have insurance for most of these large publications have liability and slander insurance liability, libel law insurance and they can have the policy pulled

1:59:34 And if that happens... Policy? Oh, their insurance policy. Yeah because the insurance company is not going to... The insurance company if this happens and they get beaten up because they're not doing their journalistic job That's grounds for the insurance companies just pull the policy and you guys are on your own The coverage is going to change remarkably. It's gonna become this very conservative, ridiculous legal... I can't say anything! Be careful! Legal and everything has got to go run through legal which right now you know it's not being run through legal. No They're just yeah Trump sucks and these kids are douchebags they don't care what they write. And so but just from a control at the post From a writer's perspective

2:00:17 What can you not say about... so these kids specifically, did the Post call them racist? I mean was it that kind of level? Yeah. Well then yeah they're in trouble for sure screw em! I like the number 250 million isn't that what Bezos paid for The Post It's kind of a funny. That's probably oh wait a minute now that you mentioned great catch That's probably why that was the number used yeah, of course screw ya The whole place is only worth 250 will take it for all your gut Yeah, well they probably won't get that but I think they'll win. I hope they win over some celebrities

CHAPTER 32 / 47 Discussion

Libel Standards, Adam Osborne and Michael Jackson

A personal anecdote regarding a two-day seminar with a libel lawyer during the writing of a book about Adam Osborne highlights the legal boundaries of public criticism. The discussion notes that calling someone a "criminal" before a conviction is a primary source of libel. However, libel laws generally do not apply to the deceased, which explains the surge in controversial documentaries about figures like Michael Jackson.

adam osborne· hypergrowth· libel law· michael jackson· documentary· legal advice

2:00:56 Yeah, and they all they have all these celebrities. Those guys haven't got libel or libel insurance Insurance is empty yeah life And I have to say that first label you were talking earlier about editing I can recall in 11 years probably three times That after the show you said mmm We have to cut that out because I me Adam said something there was probably libelous I don't think it was more than once hmm in eleven years You've also during the show itself said no. No, you can't say that and I've taken it back is this Can you take backsies? Can you do take back season if it's in real time?

2:01:41 If you libel somebody and it's unintentional, and then you correct yourself on the fly. Yes. Okay that's good all right I mean there are certain things you can't say about people just in general now why do i why am i such an expert? I spent a better part of day and a half in a libel lawyer's office with Adam Osborne from the Osborne computer yeah because we're writing a book called hyper growth which is a term i coined for the book And which is now a joke term considering the hyper growth that came after Osborne Computer was, makes him look like barely growth. But Osborne wanted to slam all kinds of people because this was after his company kind of failed because largely I think it's his fault for walking away

2:02:31 And he, so we went in there and I learned more there in that two day seminar which what it amounted to about what you can say. What you can't say how you can say it when you can't say about someone and I see stuff every once in awhile like oops this is libelous. You can't call someone a crook for example or criminal unless they're a criminal. You can do it just because the guy's a criminal right? No unless he's been found guilty in a court of law You can't call him that, it's just libelous and you just can't do it. But the joke of the libel law is that the guy's dead!

2:03:08 You can pretty much do anything you want. Huh? That's not very funny, but yeah It's not very funny But you can where you can go off to deep end now there have been some recent libel suits by families of Dead guys who have been liable that they think it hurts the family There may be some some leeway for them need to get some some right so witness the four-hour documentary of Michael Jackson where once again the same people are saying he he always kids yeah heroes Which is a weird part of it because that's why you see all this stuff. A lot of this stuff comes out if your dead, a lot of its bull crap too! Yeah but you can say it there's no repercussion You don't have to worry about it, you don't need to run through legal Now had anyone... excuse me and maybe some of you have been listening to this very podcast about two years ago we talked extensively about the Americans for Disabilities Act

CHAPTER 33 / 47 Discussion

Americans with Disabilities Act, Website Lawsuits and Iran Drones

Over 2,250 lawsuits were filed in 2018 against websites for failing to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), targeting companies like Domino's and Michael Kors. Separately, Iran's Revolutionary Guard claimed to have taken control of several U.S. drones operating over Syria and Iraq. This claim is viewed with skepticism as a potential precursor to a false flag event or a propaganda effort.

ada· lawsuits· domino's pizza· iran· drones· syria

2:04:14 and how lawsuits were going to come against websites that do not account for people with disabilities, specifically deaf or blind. I'm sorry You're sorry what? I don't understand what you said About two years ago we discussed the Americans with Disabilities Act in addition that requires web sites to make They're content available for people who are blind and or deaf. Okay, yeah And I said this is a great way to make money in 2018 2250 separate lawsuits have been filed against websites Against big websites too Domino's Pizza

2:05:13 You know, all kinds of fan- Prada Michael Kors Applebee's PNC Financial Services and people are making big money on this. Have a sue the Dvorak blog Well I think people have to know that there's big money behind the website before they start anything up By the way breaking news Judgment proof Breaking News Iran military leaders disclosed just now that their intelligence operatives have infiltrated a US Army command center and commandeered control of several American drones flying through Syria and Iraq.

2:05:56 Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps Aerospace Force released information and photographic evidence that Iran claims as proof it was able to take control of several drones. Could this be the false flag we've been waiting for? Or just another... Well, it depends on what those drones do. Well they're the big drones The big giant ones Seven to eight drones that had constant flights over Syria... The Praetors Here quotes yes seven to eight drones that had constant flights over Syria and Iraq were brought under our control and their intel was monitored by us And we could gain their first-hand Intel the general was quoted saying on Thursday in remarks carried in the country's state controlled press

2:06:44 That's ramping up. Do we know for a fact that comes from the state-controlled press? Hell no, of course not! Of course not it's free beacon who the hell knows? I don't know what is going on there. Yeah it could be anything that's the beauty of it That's the beauty of the internet Well yeah this could be the false flag if these guys will launch a couple things and you know kill some important people Yeah We have to tag...I can see her Trump now Yeah, you know active war blah blah. Blah yeah? Yeah this coming we're gonna take a dip here by the way if just Didn't already dip a little bit today well

CHAPTER 34 / 47 Discussion

Brexit, Love Island and British Public Perception

A clip from the reality show Love Island illustrates a lack of understanding regarding Brexit among some segments of the British public, with contestants questioning if leaving the EU would result in the loss of trees. The primary concern for many citizens remains the impact on foreign holidays and the value of the pound. The segment highlights the disconnect between political discourse and general public awareness.

brexit· love island· european union· spain· holidays· united kingdom

2:07:25 Maybe we're on the press. Let's just be honest about it We're on the precipice nice to see that Bitcoin and gold have been moving almost in tandem Yeah, it's a passive plus that's very interesting all right we were almost ready to take a break I did want to give you a little update on brexit This is not your typical update Having lived in the United Kingdom of getting on nation east I've often said the most important thing to the Brits about Brexit do you remember what? Just in case I hadn't said it enough, what the Brits really are worried about... The only real thing they're worried about is their vacation. It's like, is the pound gonna be still going to be valuable enough for me to go on vacation? I'd love going on vacation! Hey you know Blackpool Beckons Well for sure

2:08:11 There's a reality show in the UK called Love Island and it is very similar to Big Brother. And so imagine a courtyard, there are lots of big bouncy things and fun play toys for the contestants Four girls are lounging around in the sun at Love Island and then topic of Brexit comes up What do you think about Brexit? What's that, like I've never... Where we're leaving the European Union. I don't-I seriously don't have a clue. So like if it was to leave the EU so we wouldn't be part of Europe. The EU yeah! Which would mean welfare and like things we trade with, would be cut down. So does that mean we won't have any trees? Trees?! No! That's got nothing to do with it, babe. Why wouldn't we have trees!? What are you talking about? We're just not in the European Union. It still classes as being in Europe

2:09:05 Doesn't it mean it would be harder to like go to like Spain and stuff? So, it'd be harder to go on holidays. Yeah I think so Oh! I love my holidays! There you go The future of Britain everybody This is a broad section the British public I'm gonna show myself old by donating to No Agenda Imagine all the people who could do that oh yeah they'd be fab On no agenda Morning!

Sam Harris, Value for Value Model and Donor Recognition

The hosts contrast their "value for value" model with Sam Harris's attempt at a similar system, noting that Harris's personal wealth may affect his commitment to the model. Donations from various listeners, including those from the UK and the US, are acknowledged. The show prepares for a mobile broadcast from Des Moines, Iowa, while thanking anonymous and small-tier contributors.

We had Sam Harris come close Oh by the way team people told him no Sam Harris is a hundred millionaire Did you know that? 100 millionaire. He is the sole heir of the Harris who produced all the big TV shows I don't know a producer named Harris. Shoot, it'll come to me. Okay like Golden Girls. I think Golden Girls? Oh okay. So huge money yeah easy to give your show away but he didn't quite get it right you need to understand that people attach value to this program if you're worth 100 million bucks you're probably not putting a lot of effort into

2:12:28 We're not. It's $100 billion and we put effort into it, and we give people value for value." We're working hard let me tell you that! We do work very hard and we appreciate you equating that to some real value also people who came in under 50 dollars for the reasons of anonymity and we had the 3333s thank you for participating in that free hat invisible hat for you and everyone else on any other subscriptions we will have another show on Sunday with a new mobile rig which Knock on wood has been holding out pretty good so far and that will be from Des Moines, Iowa where we have our meetup as well And if you want to know about the meetups go to no agenda meet ups calm if you'd like to support the show Go to vorac org slash and a as requested jobs Jobs jobs and jobs.

David Icke, Australia Visa Cancellation and Holocaust Denial

British author David Icke had his Australian visa cancelled ahead of a speaking tour due to allegations of anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial. In a televised interview, Icke denied these claims, asserting that he acknowledges the catastrophe faced by Jewish people under the Nazis. He argued that the labels are being used to silence his broader critiques of government tyranny and globalist agendas.

david icke· australia· visa· holocaust· anti-semitism· free speech

2:15:41 Okay, I got a couple things okay. Well first of all that you have a couple clips from David Ike oh You're about this he what? I heard is he was not allowed to do his speech in Australia Yeah He was and this is kind of interesting to me And I'm wondering about this and why what the hell is wrong pulled what the hell is wrong with these people Well, the morning there's a show on 10 in the morning and they had him on and then all they did was accuse of being an anti-Semite. You noticed that he was... Well yeah that's the new thing man it works everywhere! Works everywhere

2:16:24 Well let's play a couple of these clips and I have a couple of questions. The Aiken Eyes 1 David Eich live in studio, the British former soccer player was set to make his 11th visit to Australia to do a speaking tour you guys have heard of him right? Exactly not perhaps not everybody has it's been suggested he's been accused of having some really anti-semitic views some strange... Is that because, you know it's probably because the elders of Zion or some shit like that he talked about it and then you automatically... You never get to the bottom of it. Sci-fi implications with reptiles on Earth? Well he was supposed to come to Australia but late yesterday he had his visa cancelled It is believed he has been banned from entering our country because of claims He is anti-semitic and a holocaust denier

2:17:12 David Icke joins us now live from Los Angeles for this TV exclusive. David, welcome to the show! Thank you, I wish I was with you! Now, first things first let's clear it up are you anti-semitic and do you deny that the Holocaust took place? Hey, do you hate Jews? Hey! Hold on a second. Great question. Here's the funny thing about him finishing I Don't Deny The Holocaust and he says it doesn't matter what he says they keep hounding him everyone who comes on keeps asking him just the most insulting questions this show does I think Mornings On Tan or whatever i'm not sure what to show You know I don't watch Australian TV that much but

2:17:53 It's one of those shows with the talking heads and one guy, there is one male on there. He is incredibly insulting I don't even know who the hell you are but you hate Jews! Don't ya? First things first let's clear it up Are you anti-semitic and do you deny that the holocaust took place No, you see if you can't discredit someone by telling the truth and you tell lies there was an absolute catastrophe for Jewish people in Nazi Germany. And one of the things that I'm seeking to do and have done for 30 years is to highlight the Nazi mentality and the tyrannical mentality that's taking away freedoms all over the world so ironically

2:18:41 The opposite of how I'm painted. There was a Labour Party candidate, I think his name's Josh Burns or something who was quoted in the newspapers in the last week saying that I am campaigning for Holocaust denial to be taught in the schools! So you believe the Holocaust did happen? This is extraordinary! So you believe the Holocaust did happen? Yes, of course... Of course a fantastic catastrophe happened for Jewish people in Nazi Germany. You're not actually answering the question, did the Holocaust happen? You keep saying catastrophe that's the difference to Holocaust just clear that up is it a catastrophe or a holocaust am I denying the Holocaust happened no i'm not okay now that's the premise that starts off am I denying the Holocaust no I am NOT but that doesn't stop these people

CHAPTER 38 / 47 Discussion

Climate Change Deniers, Holocaust Analogies and Visa Grounds

Australian Immigration Minister David Coleman reportedly cited David Icke's views on vaccines and global warming as grounds for his visa cancellation. The term "climate denier" is noted for its intentional linguistic link to "Holocaust denier" to discredit dissenters. Icke's ban is compared to other figures denied entry to Australia, including Chelsea Manning and Gavin McInnes, based on "character grounds."

david coleman· climate change· vaccines· gavin mcginnes· chelsea manning· australia

2:19:37 Wait, there's more? Yeah we have more clips. It gets shorter but just number two The debate is being shut down you have to believe certain narratives Two of the things by the way that the Minister for Immigration David Coleman What The key is coming up and before you wait before you play this the rest of it this key I've been starting to see it. I'm going, I go to the dimension B and look at the Tweet posts And this now got into the point where if you are... You say anything about global warming Yeah, yeah, your a Jew hater

2:20:24 The minister for immigration, David Coleman put in the statement for me not being allowed in was my views on vaccines and global warming. Let's have a debate then, instead of shutting it down. You must believe this or you're not coming in the country and as David Coleman admitted quite openly in this document I have come into Australia to speak 10 times since 1997 and he admits in the document there has never been a problem so why now? Don't be denied The science is end

2:21:05 That's where a lot of this comes from. You're, you're climate denier and that immediately conjures up Holocaust denier. That's where... And the connection has been made? Yes. The connection has been made and you're stuck with it. This is the same group of people that if you remember that early panic about climate change people say well you know people who deny climate change is real should be arrested and imprisoned. Well hold on, the New York Times have printed yesterday British author and broadcaster David Icke who critics accuse of anti-semitism and of being a conspiracy theorist notice how those are in the same sentence now has had his Australian visa cancelled ahead of a speaking tour the 66 year old said

2:21:55 from the United States on Wednesday that the Australian government had quote, insulted every Australian man woman and child by canceling his tour scheduled to start on March 1st. Immigration Minister David Coleman says he does not discuss individual cases those who have been denied so there is this is just the immigration minister did not say this apparently Those who have been denied Australian visas on character grounds include troubled R&B singer Chris Brown, convicted classified document leaker Chelsea Manning anti-vaxxer Kent Heckenlively and Gavin McGinnis founder of the all male far right group Proud Boys. Visitors can be refused visas if there is a risk that they will quote vilify a segment of the Australian community or incite discord

2:22:50 Now a couple of the one thing that jumped out at me Ike is a British citizen Yeah, Australia's in the Commonwealth. You don't need a visa to go to Australia from you do you? I don't know if that's well either you need a work visa for sure and That's probably what this is about You cannot just go working in Australia without a work visa or anywhere for that matter Well, but you can go work in Spain With a work visa? No, not with the EU. They're members of the EU Yeah okay well that's almost over Well that's not over you can go work in Spain so during the period you could go work in Spain and go work in France or Poland Polish people could work in the UK While thats going on you cant go to Australia without a work visa Are you kidding me is that how it was set up Not if your a conspiracy theorist

CHAPTER 39 / 47 Discussion

Reptilian Theories, Shape-Shifting and Free Speech

David Icke's theories regarding non-human "reptilian" bloodlines were challenged during an Australian media appearance. Icke argued that these bloodlines are present in all cultures and are not specific to any one ethnic group. Despite the controversial nature of his claims, some commentators argued that he should be allowed to speak in a democracy to uphold the principles of free speech.

david icke· reptiles· bloodlines· free speech· australia· bbc

2:23:43 We don't want your kind around here, son. Alright let's go to three. Speaking of crazy David do you believe that the world is being manipulated by shape-shifting reptiles that are possibly Jews who control the world through Rothschilds? Is that basically it? I love how he says... Jews?! People would have to read my books for the detail about that, but let me say this. I'm saying... Oh my god! What got into him? Who did he piss off?! I've never heard this line of questioning He seems like such a nice guy people might think is wacky But this is new

2:24:29 family bloodlines that were seeded all over the world. By whom? Oh, jeez! He's gonna try on morning TV and try to do his four-hour talk in 40 seconds? Mistake. By whom? The ancient cultures... well by a nonhuman force this is where you get in the Bible for instance the sons of God are interbred with the daughters of men which is a story that you find in cultures all over the world whether it's African culture or whatever all over the world a long time ago and they are resulting in being human forms, and they are lizards. You've been watching way too much V in the 80s. That television series? You have not been doing enough research into the background that's that's the problem but the point is that I'm saying that these bloodlines were seeded everywhere in every culture so where does this their Jews come from? What do they take there face off when they go to bed or what?

2:25:25 Sorry, I thought i was going to have an intelligent conversation. Clearly not! Are we gonna have an intelligent conversation or what? I don't agree with a lot of what you said. I don't agree with your stance on immunisation, let me finish for one second! Let me finish for one second. I don't agree with your thoughts on climate change or reptilian people but what i do agree is that you should actually be able to speak because we live in a democracy and I am a big supporter of free speech and I think what happens when the government then stops people like you coming into the country to talk and to have their say, it actually emboldens people who support you. And then they jump on the bandwagon that the government is trying to shut down free speech and there is a conspiracy theory to shut down free speech." Well no! It's not a conspiracy theory...it's happening right before your very eyes! This guy's not allowed to speak in your country Oh by the way let's have all these other crazy morons come in to promote their science fiction movies Who gives a shit? What is the problem?!

2:26:29 Two short clips left in this and then I have one other little series. Oh my God! So let me guess, he answers the question... A vast number of people died quite clearly in concentration camps run by Nazis which... Not just concentration camps, they were rounded up and shot like animals. Oh jeez! Which shut down the ability to expose what they were doing If the Nazis had not have shut down opposition how much of what was going on in Nazi Germany would people have known earlier? And maybe a lot of that would not have happened

2:27:37 No, good point. I'm sure it was lost on them. Oh no they by the way this continued and it was the same thing what he said you hate Jews you hate and then they kept bringing in global warming with Australians seem to be all in on global warming to such an extreme well hold on we have is almost embarrassing We got to play a jingle! And you wonder if we should ever do the tour in Australia I can see it coming down Broadway and Mr. Curry, we don't think yeah

CHAPTER 40 / 47 Discussion

Patrick J. Michaels, Climate Models and the Russian Model

Climatologist Patrick J. Michaels argued on Fox News that 31 out of 32 major climate models used by the United Nations are systematically over-predicting global warming. He noted that only the Russian model accurately reflects observed temperature data from satellites and weather balloons. Michaels claimed that most models are "parameterized" or tuned to show warming that is not actually occurring in the atmosphere.

patrick j michaels· climate change· computer models· united nations· russia· carbon dioxide

2:28:21 Now, I have two clips from a weekend show that's done on Fox and they had on Patrick J. Michaels and you can look him up. Patrick J. Michaels is probably one of the top climatologists in the world. Oh! Is he backpedaling? Sorry? Is he back peddling? No, he's not backpedaling. He was never in on the deal. Oh I'm sorry So he is a denier and so he but he's got great credentials And Mark Levin brought him on this little weird Sunday show that he does on Fox It's very obscure nobody watches it But I got two clips from this guy and I think it said we should need to review this. And this is why you need nobody will debate this guy, nobody will bring this stuff up because everyone's so all in on the climate change scam that it's never going to come with a conversation but I think this is worth listening to. This is Patrick J Michaels on Global Warming 1. Because when the planet warmed beginning of 1976

2:29:18 the temperature of the stratosphere started to drop. And that's a prediction of greenhouse theory that is not intuitive, you know? The great philosopher of science Karl Popper said if you can meet a difficult prediction with your theory... ...you can continue to entertain your theory So the theory is right but the application of it is wrong It is nowhere near as warm as its supposed to be The computer models are making systematic dramatic errors over the entire tropics, which is 40% of the earth. And it's where all our moisture comes from or almost all of it. Let me stop you there. Who does these computer models? Governments! There are 32 families of computer models that are used by the United Nations each government sponsored and All of them

2:30:11 are predicting far, far too much warming. The disparity between what's been predicted to happen which looks like this and what is happening continues to grow We know that for a fact Yeah because you can just look at the weather balloon temperatures You can look at the satellite temperatures You could look at something called reanalysis data They all behave in concert So they're showing the same thing And the same thing is a lot different than this thing However one model works And you know what it is? It's the Russian model.

2:30:56 pretty much follows reality. Yeah, what's been tested over a few decades? Correct! You know if we were rational about this think about the daily weather forecast you watch the Weather Channel they go all this model says that that model says that We think this one is working best so we're going to rely on that well For climate forecasts, we should be using the Russian model. But we're not! We use this big spate of all the other models that have this warming in them that's not occurring. Shut up already!! science. Now, of course the Russian model isn't bought and paid for by a bunch of people throwing money at climate scientists to make sure that those numbers are high for some ulterior motive but he goes on with a little more details about these models and I think...and this brings us right back to ClimateGate Why are all these other government models 31?

2:31:53 Wrong and why do they all go in the same direction up because they are what is called parameterized? That's their value parameter eyes. Can I translate parameter eyes into English fudged? The don't get the right answer Don't know the right answer for certain phenomena so we essentially put in code steps that give us what we think it should be a And the systematic error that was made was, the models were tuned as it said. Tuned to simulate the warming of the early 20th century. Began in 1910 and ended in 1945 about .45 degrees Celsius mark. That could not have been caused by carbon dioxide

2:32:43 We had to put enough in that the background carbon dioxide concentration is 280 parts per million. When the first warming started it was 298 parts per million, if the atmosphere's that sensitive to an 18 ppm change in CO2 we wouldn't be talking about this right now and we'd be sweating bullets! But no, we can't talk about that on PBS small this guy on PBS because Al Gore told them not to Yes small aviation stay away from it hot tubs. Stay out of them

2:33:23 Don't go canoeing anywhere. He's already got his stuff out and published, but this was a classic example of bull crap that nobody wants to talk about because there's ulterior motives vested interests. There's money to be made. There's carbon tax and all the other crap that even the French know is bunch of bull crap and they're still writing about it. Yeah, the carbon tax. That's that's the one thing they I think it's just the stragglers who are still trying to do that because It's kind of dead then I don't think they'll ever really get that Just doesn't seem like since the whole thing is dead yeah It's no path to growth The pocketbook is closed We should close the game To the gate, to the gate, to the climate gate

Google Nest, Hidden Microphones and Geo-Fencing

Google admitted that its Nest Secure home security system contained a built-in microphone that was not disclosed in the product's technical specifications. The company claimed the omission was an error and the microphone was intended for future features. This revelation adds to growing privacy concerns regarding "cross-device tracking" and the use of high-frequency tones to monitor user behavior across phones and computers.

google· nest secure· microphone· privacy· geo-fencing· data tracking

2:34:13 Let's see, I got a little OTG news here that i'd like to share with y'all. A couple of things... Los Angeles Times actually had a nice article about how your television and phone are tracking you particularly at like duh hello but now they talk specifically about geo-fencing at political campaigns And how they do this cross device tracking which we've talked about, which is the inaudible high frequency tones that will emit from your phone to your computer or vice versa so they can figure out who you are. Yeah it's a great article!

2:34:49 Little late I'd say, but the story... A little late to say the least. The story of the week was definitely this one Google admitting it made an error after initially failing to reveal that its home security system Nest Secure contained a built-in microphone Many Nest users were unaware of the feature The microphone was never listed as part of the product's tech specifications So Google saying the microphone was quote never intended to be a secret wealth and that basically it added into the device for future capabilities. But I mean, even so many people probably not realizing that they had this you know in their devices in their home maybe they wouldn't have bought it if they had known. I totally agree and this is not a moment for big tech companies to have another challenge to peoples trust in them and I guess there's two levels of this do people worry that listens and can be hacked or more concerning would be

2:35:44 Did intend it to be secret and they were listening in a long time which of course they deny both and either way not good timing Data privacy to have this kind of story come out for them. Oh, geez not good timing This is kind of dumb crap that Google has done for years And I just take everything for granted. Oh, nobody's who cares? Let's put it in there. I remember being on Twit when I was still living in Los Angeles I said you should not install this would later became Google Voice So they have all these these plugins that are running in your browser so they can access your microphone and one ha ha Google would never do that don't be evil

YouTube Algorithm, Child Safety and Advertiser Boycotts

A YouTube creator exposed a "wormhole" in the site's algorithm that facilitates the sharing of suggestive videos featuring minors. The discovery led major advertisers like Disney and Nestle to pause their campaigns on the platform. The issue highlights the difficulty of moderating a massive network where non-illegal but "creepy" content can be algorithmically promoted to predatory audiences.

youtube· algorithm· disney· nestle· child safety· monetization

2:36:21 They called me a crazy conspiracy theorist I tell you. Yeah, yeah What else is going on Silicon Valley? Oh yes this one youtuber He figured out something interesting with the algos Where there's an he calls it the wormhole or I'll just say the Algo trap that there's a huge contingent, community perhaps of soft core child pornography sharers and viewers And once you get it, you got to see this guy's video. Isn't that called Reddit? No! It's interesting on YouTube and once there are like 13 year old girls who were just in their bedrooms doing stupid shit but then these sickos they come in and they will time code where there is a naked thigh or something...it's really creepy But here's the creepy part The minute you start looking at one of those videos which this guy shows

2:37:20 Then the algos kick in and there's nothing but all of these, you know Teenage underage girls in their bedrooms and all these creeps in the comments sharing other videos and time codes so he makes a big deal out of this because there's ads running on him and immediately Disney Nestle All pulling their ads or they say is it got bust? They're on hold. Yeah, they're on hold But the problem is you can't do anything about it I mean, why shouldn't teenage girls be able to do a little movie about whatever they're doing? Their parents should be notified of what's going on. But it's not... They're not doing anything illegal so you can't kick them off! You see the problem this is the issue of monetizing the network This is NOT the way to go It's all coming crumbling down and I think Disney and Nestle they're pretty big in the

2:38:15 The child porn yeah big This is not true No, they're pretty big advertisers Big advertise that's what I meant to say. Yeah came out a little different Yes, and I thought that was a very delectable little thing that happened there idiots good luck people Relax, I don't even blame Disney and Nestle this is the to ad buyers for their ad agencies, it's responsibility. True place he has Disney and Nestle just turn it over to somebody that is supposed to be trustworthy but I don't know what they're thinking. Somebody get fired by the way

Donald Trump, Humor Impairment Claims and Media Bias

CNN's Alison Camerota claimed that President Donald Trump is "humorless" and has never been captured laughing on camera. This assertion is criticized as a new entry in the media's negative rotation, ignoring numerous instances of Trump joking and laughing during his public rallies. The hosts argue that such claims demonstrate a lack of familiarity with the subject's actual public presentations.

donald trump· alison camarota· cnn· humor· brian stelter· media rotation

2:38:52 I have a... oh yes. In fact, I'm surprised the reporters who did all that damage to that poor little kid that was standing up with the MAGA hat on didn't get fired. Suspended or fired? Sure. Nah! It's not gonna happen. Orange work. Orange man bad. The Trump rotation. trumprotation.com everybody That's where you can find out what is in rotation for negativity about the president. I believe i have a new entry this was unexpected So I thought we pretty much had it all covered. John, if you'll get the list i'll play the clip this is Alison Camarota from CNN with Brian Seltzer-Water and there is a new accusation that can go straight into rotation yes but the problem is and this is one of the very unique things about President Trump he's humorless

2:39:43 He is humor impaired. This is not an original thought today, he has never been captured laughing on any camera of any kind. He doesn't have never made a joke it was like that's not true. He doesn't...he's humor impaired and so I mean name a term... Humor impaired? Massively humor impaired! So he doesnt..I don't know if he thinks....He can't think like Chuck Schumer to go back with the quip and say something funny in self-deprecating. Ahhhh I see what you're saying. There ya'go Humorless. Humour impaired. I'm looking at the list now, maybe it's not here... The thing is it's like

2:40:20 It was I forgot who it was Jordan Peterson said one out of three people have no sense of humor But Trump he's got thinks he's funny and he does funny material when he does his long lectures He certainly if certainly been on camera laughing And I've seen him on camera laughing a lot So these guys so first are we at what? We learn here is that neither. One of these people have actually watched one of the Trump presentations to the large crowds Well, Alison Camerota. She certainly has she certainly has seen him now I don't leave it now Wow screw them Idiots hey you were talking this I was looking for this clip and I'm glad I found it This ties into the anti-semitism And not being allowed to go into Australia for David Icke

Emmanuel Macron, Anti-Zionism and Yellow Vest Protests

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that France would adopt a definition of anti-Semitism that includes anti-Zionism. This move comes amid attempts to link the Yellow Vest protest movement to a rise in anti-Semitic attacks. Critics argue that the government is using these labels to delegitimize social protests by equating opposition to state power with hatred of specific ethnic groups.

emmanuel macron· france· yellow vests· anti-zionism· anti-semitism· bbc

2:41:06 uh... the yellow vests in france still participating they have not stopped, they have not really even slowed down. They keep protesting against the government there's a new tactic for these guys this is BBC President Macron arrived at the annual dinner for Jewish leaders amid a spate of anti-semitic attacks in France he said parliament would vote on a new law to tackle hatred on the internet vowed to dissolve three extreme right groups and made a key commitment that many had been waiting for. Anti-Zionism was a modern form of anti-Semitism, he said, and France would apply the definition adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. Nona Meyer is an expert in anti-Semitism at one of France's top political science universities, Sciences Po

2:41:56 It's interesting because you see two peaks, actually. The first peak is linked to what's going on in the occupied territories in Palestine and Israel. Then the second peak was in November when started the social movement of the yellow vests because they favor the words of people who are against the state and then against Jews because they assimilate the Jews to power and money, and influence. So the movement helps recycle old stereotypes against Jews even if the movement in itself is not anti-semitic of course I thought this was unbelievable how can you twist something like that to say this? Pretty wild It's it's like wow so because people are protesting because they're pissed off

2:42:47 Because they're protesting people with power, power equals Jews anti-semitic you anti-semitic horrible people with your yellow vest. I mean from the yellow vest community and they're openly yellow vested it's just This is brazen, brazen. So who was this again? What was the background of this? It was BBC and... All the news media is this way they are just out of control with their analysis And there's a lot of anti-Semitism here anti-Semitism there Well that's the latest Right now it's in rotation Going on as we speak

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, Depression Era History

2:43:24 I only have one more unless you got something else. I got one last clip. Well, I've got a couple of short ones Let me do a short one here just a nine second one which is somebody else recorded They record it off the TV with the regular microphone and it's got a cat in it Meowing which is fine but it's a jeopardy clip In 1937 Kraft changed everything by combining these two ingredients in a box. Oh, I'll take 100 John. Doug, we're macaroni and cheese right? Yeah depression era food wasn't that the category? Depression era food? It was 1937 i didn't realize that was the year they boxed it

2:44:04 And it's still killing children today. Good work! I'm sorry, it's not killing children. It's not killing children? No there is no silica in there, there are no pieces of plastic or anything. It's good. Chunks of gondola as well. It's cheap cheddar melted together. She threw for 50 cents at the grocery outlet yesterday...in a box. Yeah, generic. I gotta call Tucker Carlson out as a huge douchebag He's been doing this anti-weed thing for months and i don't know what his problem is

Tucker Carlson, Marijuana Scrommeting and Medical Claims

Tucker Carlson featured a segment on "scrommeting"—screaming and vomiting—allegedly caused by heavy marijuana use, known as Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome. Dr. Mark Siegel claimed that millions of Americans are affected and that the only temporary relief is hot showers. The hosts criticized the segment as unscientific propaganda designed to appeal to an older, anti-pot audience formerly cultivated by Bill O'Reilly.

2:44:41 You know, hey you don't like weed? Don't smoke it. He picked it up from O'Reilly Well its very annoying and he did it again last night And he brought back an old favorite which was bullshit the first time we heard it happening in the UK Well as you know if you've been paying any attention at all there's literally nothing cooler than marijuana Cool people smoke weed By the way first of all that is true Second of all I have standing in this area I am a heavy user of the holy herb so Im allowed to comment But hold on This is an example of sarcasm without correction. What do you mean? If you just take that out of context, he's a big marijuana advocate! This is the kind of thing The Right does. This was Ben Shapiro and all these guys they make these sarcastic remarks as though it's fact but you're supposed to understand he's being sarcastic which don't necessarily do yeah this is very sarcastic with this just also

2:45:37 Well, it's the whole thing is bullshit. But besides that... Yeah you're right it's the method. It's that kind of sarcasm that really does not help right-wingers to get their point across. Well as you know if you've been paying any attention at all there's literally nothing cooler than marijuana cool people smoke weed and that's why total legalization nationwide seems inevitable but But as marijuana use rises, a mysterious illness called cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome is affecting some heavy users. Not a lot is known about this but symptoms include what they're calling scrommeting an uncontrollable wave of screaming and vomiting So we heard about the scrommeting We came and went real quick by the way They were trying to do this thing in the UK The emergency rooms are filled with people scrommeting

2:46:28 RAAAGH! We have to scream. This is just a lie. Thank you. Might be worth learning more considering the ubiquity of marijuana, so we're joined by Fox contributor Dr. Mark Siegel Oh the doctor is in? Our in-house doctor, we're grateful to have him. Doctor Siegel what is this? Well Tucker you know we use marijuana to decrease nausea and pain medicinally medically but as anything in medicine when you start using a lot of it you get the reverse effect. BULLSHIT Please... oh wait a minute So if I take aspirin for a headache, but I take too much aspirin then i'm going to get a headache again? Is this what this doctor is saying? Yes. That's what he says. Medicinally medically But as in anything in medicine when you start using a lot of it You get the reverse effect than then you actually want so this is for chronic pot smokers out there places where it's recreational We see a ton of this in colorado by the way and flooding emergency rooms probably over three million people in the united states are affected because what happens is

2:47:24 The pot, when you start using a lot of it turns off the receptors in the nerves that are supposed to suppress nausea and pain. So you're nauseous, you're in pain and the only thing that works for this Tucker is hot showers! It floods the receptors, it turns them back on... You go back to normal but you got to be in the shower for six hours guess what the cure is? This is insane. I've grew up in Amsterdam, I've been smoking weed since I was 13. The hospital emergency rooms flooded, 3 million people to the brim. You go back to normal but you gotta be in the shower for 6 hours! Guess what the cure is? Stop smoking pot. Kamala Harris out there stop smoking pot that's the cure. Oh he's writing his own jokes now. Kamala Harris stop smoking pot.

2:48:23 We've talked about long-term effects, effects in terms of behavioral changes, judgment, how you do on exams. Effects on the lungs. This is a big one and I'll tell you the biggest take home here people misdiagnose this all the time Tucker people have had their gallbladders taken out by mistake because they come to an emergency room vomiting uncontrollably and even doctors are not used to this but over three million people and as we zoom up to more than ten million who are chronically smoking pot nationwide, we're going to see more and more of this. This is a terrible side effect pain and vomiting and it's a warning for people out there there is no free lunch here Oh my god. This is... And you know, the visuals they show, they always... Tucker has the same visuals of some hippie with cruddy hair and cruddy dirty fingernails and they zoom in on him trying to roll this joint and it's all- he lights it and its all lighting askew when he takes some saliva and he's trying to stop it from burning the wrong way It's a really disgusting clip

2:49:24 And I don't understand, what is his problem? Who pissed in his cornflakes and besides this being completely unscientific. You know, they said this worked for O'Reilly because he does a lot of O'Reilly's bits. He has like a word you know as a beginning and he's structured his restructure the show so it's less just slamming some poor sucker who is stupid enough to come on So it's more like an O'Reilly style show. And so they probably some suits that, hey you know, O'Reilly was hated pot and let's just use that... You know you just keep with that audience because we want to keep cultivating the pot hating audience. So can we put a little more anti-pot stuff in there? That's really sad though! Don't you think that could be the only reason? Because he doesn't look like a guy who gives a crap about pot one way or another
