About this episode

The New York Times and CBS News report that President Donald Trump privately proposed a border trench filled with snakes and alligators to deter migrants. These allegations, which include claims of spikes designed to pierce human flesh, surfaced alongside a coordinated media narrative framing the President's responses to the impeachment inquiry as erratic lashing out. Trump has dismissed the reports as fabrications while continuing to emphasize national sovereignty over globalism at the United Nations.

In the Netherlands, thousands of farmers used tractors to create 700 miles of traffic jams in protest of European Union nitrogen emission limits. Domestically, an ABC News investigation by Tom Yamas detailed Hunter Biden’s business dealings with Burisma in Ukraine and an investment fund in China, raising conflict of interest concerns for Joe Biden. Meanwhile, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was heard in leaked audio discussing the legal threat of an Elizabeth Warren presidency, and Senator Bernie Sanders paused his campaign following a heart procedure to insert two stents.

Senator Kamala Harris and contributor Kara Swisher have publicly called for the suspension of the President’s Twitter account, prompting a shift toward decentralized platforms like No Agenda Social. Hillary Clinton’s recent media tour on The View and The Late Show has fueled speculation from Steve Bannon that she may enter the 2020 race. The program also examines the FBI's role in domestic terror plots as satirized in Chris Morris’s new film, The Day Shall Come.

CHAPTER 01 / 35 Discussion

Netherlands Farmer Protests, European Union Nitrogen Regulations

Farmers in the Netherlands staged massive protests involving tractors that created over 700 miles of traffic jams to oppose new European Union nitrogen emission limits. The regulations threaten agricultural operations by restricting fertilizer use, which farmers argue is a one-size-fits-all policy that ignores local needs. Protesters breached police barricades in The Hague, drawing comparisons to the Yellow Vest movement in France.

00:00 Kick him off Twitter! Adam Curry, John C. DeVora It's Thursday October 3rd 2019 This is your award-winning Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 1178 This is no agenda Rockin' the red meat and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 The frontier of Austin Texas Capital of the drone star state In the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where apparently it's still rush hour and remains so until about eleven Team John C. DeVorex You want to know about a real rush hour go over to the Netherlands see what's going on there the other day What oh you didn't see the farmer protest? No, I've gotten a big clue from the French. Oh even better though so the European Union decided that The Netherlands has exceeded its nitrogen quantity they're allowed to use

00:59 And by the way, the Netherlands I think has the same quantity limits as Germany and other countries much larger than them. So they said it's done you can't use any more nitrogen for the rest of the year just all done now maybe we should understand how important nitrogen is in farming for that we turn to our resident farmer John C Dvorak Yeah, nitrogen is one of the main components of all fertilizers. And in fact it's the nitrogen compound that means it most and when you buy some fertilizer sometimes see three numbers on there which is like something like 16 five and six or sixteen at max I think for nitrogen. And they refer to the levels of different nutrients but the most important one is nitrogen

01:55 I once had a bag of, and i don't have it anymore. I probably would be arrested because when I was working as an air pollution inspector, I worked at the fertilizer plant and so they gave me a bag of Straight up ammonium nitrate. You mix that with some water dip some paper in there and you got flash paper You could do a lot with it yeah, I don't know about what you just said but ammonium night ammonium nitrate is a It can be used to make explosives. ANFO bombs are one of the most easy to make, which is ammonium nitrate and fertilizer. I'm sorry, ammonium nitrate and fuel oil. You mix ammonium nitrate with some just cheap oil and put it in a... Well, I'm not gonna describe how you make the bomb but it's makeable

02:50 So I had this big bag of ammonium nitrate in the, and I think it was, I think the numbers on it were 16-0-0. It had nothing else in it. It was just pure ammonium nitrate and unfortunately the cellar flooded one day and... Oh! the bag got wet and then turned into one solid crystal ammonium nitrate. I mean, you could chip away at it if you wanted to. It's a handy product. Anyway by the way just to go on with this story, I was told that you take this pure straight stuff and then you can go to somebody like a big giant lawn that somebody has and you can spell out

03:28 screw you or something like that in with this with this night with you know, you have a little spreader and it will make this grass grow super green and super fast. And I'm like three feet high so it'll spell out whatever road is pretty funny idea now growing up just south of Amsterdam when I was young we lived in a farming community there was lots of this stuff around and what we used to do is we'd mix it with sugar, and then you have the right amounts but you'd mix it with sugar then water. Then you dip pieces of paper into the water let it dry And if you lit that it would go pfff Yeah It's like flashpaper Anyway What's cool about this in The Netherlands when it comes to the media story about this Is the Dutch name for nitrogen is stikstof

04:22 Which means choking stuff. I mean, it's a literal translation So whenever someone is talking about climate and oh my god we're hurting the earth And what are we going to do? And you're using choke stuff Oh no! This is not good But the farmers were not having it and they got all their tractors... ...and they tied up all of the highways this was Wednesday morning or Tuesday morning And they effectively created almost 700 miles of traffic jams. Nice! And the Netherlands, you know, at 700 miles you can go up and down back and forth a couple times. You can roam around in the country with that. So now The Netherlands is very sensitive to traffic because in fact

05:15 Although it's starting to change a little bit, for decades they would always mention the traffic on the news. Traffic and weather together! And they do it by length of the traffic jam so not how much time it would take but the actual length and it would be 5 kilometers 15 kilometers 20 kilometers you hear this every single morning every afternoon that the country is incredibly overcrowded or densely populated and there's a lot of cars and just not enough roadway so they're sensitive to it. So when this happens, it cripples the country and if the country was crippled for this day... And the farmers they went down to The Hague or came up where they were went westwards wherever they were coming probably from the from the east so they went westward and the... This is where the government in Netherlands had set up

06:07 barricades and fences because we have this very famous field called the Mali felt and that's where you can register and have an official demonstration. And you can stand there and go, hey, ho-ho what the F has got to go? But they didn't want any of this, it was not a registered protest. And the farmers... you know that's how stupid these people are! The farmers they roll up into the Hague after tying all the roadways They look at these fences and go pfff.... and just video after video plowing them down going right through them jumping just... You know he is a tractor, he is a sizable John Deere, you can do much against him They're like tanks

06:46 and the Dutch population from what I've been able to glean from following it are a stand behind the farmers. Like yeah, why are we letting these EU douchebags tell us what we can do? So they weren't wearing yellow vests but they might as well have been very good. Well where's this guy head though? It's not gonna go anywhere Oh! They'll do it again The farmers are famous in the Netherlands for doing... They are indeed the Yellow Vest of Holland They're very famous for their protests. And this... So let's back up to the reason for the protests, so they are given the same I guess managed amount or rations, they get the same rations? Ration! That's a good one. The wartime that have rations of their nitrogen supply and fertilizer supply let's say

07:38 They have their ration, they have to have the exact same amount as the other countries. Yeah well... It doesn't make any sense everybody grows different things they need different we have different requirements. Of course not! You can't have a one-size fits all for fertilizer Well that's exactly what they did and also since I'm the resident farmer yeah yes also What are the crop differences? There's gotta be some crop differences. And why are the Dutch using so much fertilizer, you think maybe they're abusing it, maybe they're using too much. Maybe there just is a lot of runoff involved. I mean sounds like they're ruining the place these Dutch. I don't think so but you asking questions that I can't answer

08:22 My question is, is nitrogen... I had not heard that this was a greenhouse gas. It's not a gas? No it's not! It's the gas in the atmosphere if you're just gonna say nitrogen N2 which is just the nitrogen molecule So I'm not sure exactly what it is that is a problem but Or maybe it's just harmonization so everyone is in line. Is it N2 or just plain N in the atmosphere? I think its just N, yeah. Anyway but the point is that nitrogen is a chemical that has nitrogen in it. Right right well look I don't know but all I can tell you is that it seems rather unfair

09:12 for the Dutch to be cut off with the same levels as other countries around them when they are just a different size country. I don't even know how you can equate... But they're so small, why would they need as much Germany? Well, I don't know! I really don't know but the point is they don't want Brussels telling him- Yeah, I know and the point is that they should do their own thing. Yeah, they don't want Brussels telling him what to do. Yeah well hello?! That's exactly the problem. Exactly the problem Which was very interesting and maybe we'll start, we were kind of laughing just before we started because we both had the exact same clip which you titled the bonus clip. It was a bonus clip but since mine is three seconds longer I think i'll

MSNBC Interrupts Donald Trump, UN General Assembly Speech

MSNBC host Nicole Wallace interrupted a live broadcast of President Donald Trump’s speech at the United Nations General Assembly to fact-check claims regarding Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. The network asserted that allegations of corruption involving the Bidens in Ukraine had been thoroughly debunked and adjudicated. Critics argue this editorial decision prevented the public from hearing the President's actual policy statements on globalism and sovereignty.

msnbc· nicole wallace· donald trump· united nations· joe biden· hunter biden· ukraine

09:59 I'll grab my version. Well, don't you think that...I had that clip because it's part of a bunch of clips Oh well maybe..I was going to start you off onto that Well here i'l tell what my thinking was and then you tell me how you want to run it So President Trump is at the United Nations General Assembly giving a speech which I guarantee you no one who is listening right now actually saw or heard any clip or anything of his speech And in fact, to make matters worse as he's starting it is kind of in his speech. And then we get the Nicole Waltz that's how that's where I was going to go and then I want to play with Trump actually said because I think that's interesting but if that doesn't work for you, we can do it later. Well no, we can go in that direction. It just wasn't my initial idea but yeah, he's giving us these...I thought there was a press conference that she interrupted him? No! But it was his United Nations General Assembly speech

10:58 Oh, I saw the... Okay. That's by the way it is N2 not just N. So he's given this speech and she instead of letting him give the speech because of MSNBC policies she just interrupts him and calls them a liar in the middle of the speech! We hate to do this, really. But the president isn't telling the truth. These allegations against Joe Biden and Hunter Biden that he's repeating have been investigated by the Ukrainians none other than The Wall Street Journal included in their report on Friday that the Ukrainians view this issue as having been investigated and adjudicated. And what's amazing is it went

11:46 Trump appears to be trying to do is turn his own impeachment into a big deflection. Yeah, he's trying to change the story I think we should say two things first of all the question on the table here is not about Joe Biden it's not about Chris Murphy or any other senators he's talking about it's not about The Whistleblower its' about his conduct and whether his conduct as president impeachable or not, whether it amounts to misconduct. But as it relates to Joe Biden, it's important to note that this story has been looked at and thoroughly debunked by everyone involved. Joe Biden's son served on the board of a Ukrainian company. That Ukrainian company was investigated by the Ukrainian attorney general. That investigation was closed before Joe Biden ever asked for the attorney general to be fired and... The reason Joe Biden asked for the attorney general to be fired he wasn't

12:27 speaking on behalf of himself or his son. He wasn't even speaking on behalf of the Obama administration, he was speaking on behalf of the West at large. The IMF wanted him gone other Western governments wanted him gone because this attorney general was known to be corrupt that's why Joe Biden pushed for him to be outed it had nothing to do with his son and everyone that has looked into it has confirmed that." So just just so we lay this out properly The President of the United States, which these same people will call the leader of the free world is speaking on the largest stage and has ideas and is communicating directly to all leaders not just a phone call to one guy but communicating his ideas directly to all leaders. They are so sorry but we have to interrupt because blah blah blah blah blah Biden blah blah blah

13:17 And you saw nothing of the actual speech. Did you see one second, well did you see one minute of useful clip from his speech anywhere? No I didn't see it because they dug it up but now that you mention it I don't think there was anybody that would play any of it Ah! Well gee this is the no agenda show His whole speech was about 46 minutes. If you cut out all the pauses because he was in his uber presidential mode, which is slow and boring... Very boring yeah And very drawn-out so I cut out all the pauses of the first couple minutes of this speech and This is exactly what we were talking about on the last show

Donald Trump UN Speech, Nationalism vs Globalism

President Donald Trump delivered a speech at the United Nations emphasizing the divide between those seeking global control and those desiring national self-governance. He asserted that the future belongs to patriots and sovereign nations rather than globalists, urging world leaders to prioritize their own citizens. The address highlighted a program of national renewal and the rebuilding of the United States military.

donald trump· united nations· globalism· sovereignty· patriotism· national renewal

14:08 The biggest problem with this president is he is anti-globalist and he will communicate however he wants to, to his people. That's King Trump. So here is a shortened, although it's just out of context because I took the pauses out but it is the full first few minutes of his speech and you get to understand pretty quickly why they were so sorry they have to interrupt this. Thank you very much Mr President, Mr Secretary General, distinguished delegates, ambassadors and world leaders. Seven decades of history have passed through this hall in all of their richness and drama where I stand the world has heard from presidents and premiers at the height of the Cold War we have seen the foundation of nations we've seen the ringleaders of revolution

15:09 We have beheld saints who inspired us with hope, rebels who stirred us with passion and heroes who emboldened us with courage. All here to share plans proposals visions and ideas on the world's biggest stage like those who met us before. Our time is one of great contests, high stakes and clear choices. The essential divide that runs all around the world and throughout history is once again thrown into stark relief. It is the divide between those whose thirst for control deludes them into thinking they are destined to rule over others

15:57 and those people and nations who want only to rule themselves. I have the immense privilege of addressing you today as the elected leader of a nation that prizes liberty, independence, and self-government above all. The United States after having spent Over two and a half trillion dollars since my election to completely rebuild our great military is also by far the world's most powerful nation. Hopefully it will never have to use this power Americans know that in a world where others seek conquest and domination, our nation must be strong in wealth, in might, and in spirit That is why the United States

16:45 vigorously defends the traditions and customs that have made us who we are. Like my beloved country, each nation represented in this hall has a cherished history culture and heritage that is worth defending and celebrating and which gives us our singular potential and strength. The free world must embrace its national foundations It must not attempt to erase them or replace them. Looking around and all over this large, magnificent planet the truth is plain to see if you want freedom take pride in your country If you want democracy hold on to your sovereignty And if you want peace

17:32 Love your nation. Wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first The future does not belong to globalists The future belongs to patriots. The future belongs to sovereign and independent nations who protect their citizens, respect their neighbors and honor the differences that make each country special and unique It is why we in the United States have embarked on an exciting program of national renewal In everything we do

18:09 We are focused on empowering the dreams and aspirations of our citizens. Uh-oh! That won't stand, oh no this is no good! Well we have to be globalists not patriots so there's plenty of reason for them to not show you that yeah Yeah, so they're the ones who are actually going off to side on this thing. They're going off the rails with the Biden thing and I found that...I had the clips. I got the Biden clip admitting that he strong-armed the Ukrainians and there also was in this guy that was on that Nicole Wallace clip

Joe Biden, Ukraine Prosecutor Firing Controversy

Footage from the Council on Foreign Relations shows Joe Biden recounting how he pressured Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to fire a state prosecutor by threatening to withhold a $1 billion loan guarantee. While Biden maintains the action was part of an international effort to curb corruption, critics point to his son Hunter Biden's role on the board of Burisma as a potential conflict of interest. The timeline of the prosecutor's investigation into Burisma remains a central point of political debate.

19:01 First of all, she interrupts by saying we have to stop because these are lies. It's not true any of this and This is not this was not as if it wasn't it's not as if there wasn't completely planned because how do you? Interrupt and start stepping all over somebody and then bring someone in who happens to be at the ready The correspondent he's standing right there ready to come ready to go nice Well, he was... How does that work if it's just being at the... He was in the studio correct? No I think he was remote. He was a remote way to go. Then i don't know because they had no intention of playing this speech none whatsoever course not but but It does bring me today this guy they brought in who is a

19:50 The little ISO I took of him says a couple of things. One, it tells me he's probably gay and sounds a little gay if you don't want to... being accused of being gay, which most people don't care. Then don't be gay? Is that what you're saying? Don't sound it! Well, don't go overboard and don't use terms like well play the clip and you'll hear the little gay terminology in here That's why he was...that's why Joe Biden pushed for him to be outed It had nothing to do with his son And everyone that has looked at it has confirmed that I missed that. Good catch! He's been outed! Wait, there are two things in there besides him being outed which is a you know what... I don't know who was outed but at the very end he says listen to the very end of this clip and play it again That's why Joe Biden pushed for him to be outed It had nothing to do with his son and everyone that has looked at it has confirmed now Oh yeah now I did hear that Everyone who looked at it has confirmed

20:49 No, no you missed it again. Oh well don't say anything let me listen one more time That's why he was that's why but Joe Biden pushed for him to be outed It had nothing to do with his son and everyone that's looked at it has confirmed them He'd had nothing to do with this son and everyone that's looked at it has confirmed that Confirmed them I know what is that mean? I don't confirm them You say that let me listen again That's why he was that's why but Joe Biden pushed for him to be outed it had nothing to do with his son And everyone that's looked at it has confirmed now It's hard for me to tell if you're saying that or them, but I'll take your word for it. You believe me? I boosted it. It's the them. So he's talking about them and this again is bull crap and I have two clips If you want to get into it one is Biden himself going on and on at the Council of Foreign Relations

21:42 where he pretty much brags about getting this guy fired. I think we've played this at least once, haven't we? We've played this... Well, it's short. We'll play it again. I remember going over convincing our team or others to convince you that we should be providing for loan guarantees and I went over, I guess the 12th-13th time to Kiev and I was supposed to announce that there is another billion dollar loan guarantee and I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor and they didn't. So they said, they were walking out to press conference saying no I'm not gonna give you or we're not gonna give you the billion dollars. They said you have no authority, you're not the president. The president's dead, I said call him. I said I'm telling ya, you're not getting a billion dollars. You're not getting a billion? I'm gonna be leaving here in what six hours? I look at it and say I'm leaving in six hours if the prosecutor is not fired then you're

22:44 Oh, son of a bitch. Got fired and they put in place someone who was solid." You know although I was kind of like annoyed that because this clip is played every five minutes on Fox News...I just heard something else in there of importance he literally tells us that the President of the United States is behind this threat then-President Obama Yeah. And so once again, what you say to yourself with your head in the clouds they are accusing this president of exactly what the previous president did exactly the same. You can see kids in cages too well he also used another term and here I'm probably gonna be a nitpicker today is it more colorful term

23:33 He says at the end, he says we got a guy who's solid. He uses the word solid. In context I believe in this case that he is going to do me as solid. I think it stems from that where the guy is another word he's a stooge for us And I believe that's what Biden was kind of saying. Anyway, the last thing I have on this... This has been played too much on...I don't watch Fox so i didn't know that but it's been played a lot because it does make a point and your catch on the president being part of is a good one

CHAPTER 05 / 35 Discussion

ABC News Report, Hunter Biden Business Dealings

An ABC News investigation by Tom Yamas detailed Hunter Biden's business ventures in Ukraine and China while his father served as Vice President. The report noted Hunter's appointment to the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian gas company, and his involvement in a Chinese investment fund following an official visit to Beijing. Despite the Biden campaign's denials of wrongdoing, the report highlighted concerns regarding the appearance of a conflict of interest.

24:13 But insofar as it's not just being debunked and all the rest that they said on MSNBC ABC did a very long piece and unfortunately I have the whole thing. I couldn't clip it down, but you don't have to play the whole thing but just have to listen to part of it because this goes on and on and on And this is with Tom Yamas who I haven't heard from much Wait a minute! Is that my guy? Tom, no. No, that's Jeff Begays. Oh okay I'm sorry. I confused those two proof heads! Those two proof heads...I confused them one is constipated the other is not. Tom Yamas does this thing on Hunter Biden and he brings up all of the points about why is this guy getting his job? You might want to listen just at the beginning of it because its three and a half minutes which is maxed out for the show we do long clips where don't do them that long

25:00 And this is a, you know, can't find. This is the long ABC report. Now the funny thing about this, this was done with David Muir as the host but it was never run on The Nightly News. They ran it as kind of an offbeat special on The Morning Show with Stephanopoulos and I found that to be peculiar so they kind of suppressed the story but they did do this story and they felt obliged to run it, here it is. while his father was vice president. Our chief national affairs correspondent Tom Yamas traveled to Ukraine to try and get some answers, and Tom what did you find? Dave good morning to you this is actually an issue Joe Biden has been dealing with since 2014 but it's come up again because he is now running for president Republicans including President Trump are trying to hammer Biden over this. That issue was Hunter Biden profiting off of his dad's work as Vice President and did Joe Biden allow it we're talking about millions of dollars in at least two countries

25:59 Mr. Vice President, Tom Yalmus with ABC News How you doing? Got a quick question for you It's the question we tried to ask repeatedly Can we ask about Ukraine and China But kept getting blocked Questions about foreign deals his son Hunter Biden pursued My father Joe Biden In countries where Joe Biden was working as America's top diplomat In 2014, Ukrainians sick of corruption revolted. Vice President Joe Biden went to Kiev to help the new government. Wow they're really glossing over a lot there like Ukrainians revolted!

26:38 The United States had the whole state. It's already too long! The State Department was over there and they were at Vicki Newland, Noodleman Kegelmann handing out cookies... You have to fight the cancer of corruption But then something strange happens Just three weeks later, a Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma accused of corruption appoints Hunter Biden seen here in their promotional videos to their board of directors paying his firm more than $1 million dollars a year. Hunter, a lawyer who had just been discharged from the Navy Reserves for testing positive for cocaine. Mr. Hunter Biden? He had served on other boards but had no known experience in Ukraine or natural gas We went to Kiev and found even among Joe Biden supporters in Ukra- Wait a minute

27:32 You're telling me this ran on the Stephanopoulos show in the morning? Yeah. You mean Stephanopoulos, the former and perhaps still Clinton insider and operative? Okay! Wait a minute... if you're gonna go with that theory which is possible Sure Then it would have to go like this then The story was produced for ABC Nightly News with David Muir and it was shelved. And then if we go with your theory, Stephanopoulos got wind of it so you know this is a good story we should run that on my show because its already been produced lets run it in the morning and then thats possible, thats a possibility. You know why?

28:20 You know why? We got a feeling. to be abused. And Ukraine wasn't the only country where Hunter Biden's business and his father's diplomacy as vice president intersected, it also happened in China. This video shows Chinese diplomats greeting Vice President Biden as he arrived in Beijing in December of 2013 right by his side, his son Hunter

28:55 Less than two weeks later, Hunter's firm had new business creating an investment fund in China involving the government-controlled Bank of China. With reports they hope to raise 1.5 billion dollars. Hunter still plays a role in the fund his lawyer says his stake is worth about half a million dollars Both Hunter and his lawyers say he never discussed any of his overseas work with his father. But even a critic- While living in the same house. Current president and his children's business dealings says this, He should have encouraged his son to not take these positions. Biden's campaign team told us that the vice president acted at all times in a manner consistent with well established executive branch ethics standards. Yes! One person who did not want to talk about it? Joe Biden

29:43 Mr. Vice President, what's your take on that? Was there a conflict of interest there? Was there a clear conflict of interest? Now, in response to our questions the Biden campaign for the first time is announcing if he's elected He will invoke a new ethics policy on his first day in office that would empower White House lawyers To monitor for any types of conflicts of interest. Now Hunter Biden did not want to comment on camera He says he was brought into Burisma that Ukrainian company That was facing corruption charges to help with its transparency and corporate responsibility So far, no charges have been brought against Boris Musselman. But these questions aren't going to go away so in the meantime is he still on the board for that company in Ukraine? It's a good question David so this same month Joe Biden announces he's gonna run for president Hunter Biden tells us his term on the board expired He says at the current political climate he's decided not to renew You know now I'm kind of sad there was this clip that I saw which I did not clip for the show Rudy Giuliani with Stephanopoulos

30:41 I didn't clip it because it's Rudy Giuliani and I'm so sick and tired of all this bullcrap. Just all of it, we read the transcript...I'm sick of it! It's all stupid but Giuliani was sitting on Stephanopoulos' show and he had emails and affidavits and files and he sat there unchallenged! Damnit, I should have gotten that clip! Stephanopoulos just let him rant and rant which is not at all like him This I think that they're just setting it up to get rid of Joe so she can swoop in. I Can't see it any other way ABC hates Trump Why why would they why would they let all this slide and be so anti Joe? They want Joe out and Bernie's out Joes out

CHAPTER 06 / 35 Discussion

Elizabeth Warren, Silicon Valley Breakup Proposal

Leaked audio published by The Verge features Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg discussing the potential legal challenges of an Elizabeth Warren presidency, specifically her proposal to break up big tech companies. Some analysts speculate the leak may be a coordinated effort to bolster Warren's image as a tough regulator while maintaining her underlying ties to Democratic donors in Silicon Valley. The discussion questions whether the proposed antitrust actions are politically motivated theater.

elizabeth warren· mark zuckerberg· facebook· silicon valley· antitrust· the verge

31:35 And Elizabeth is out, MSNBC, I mean CNBC wrote that article and all the bankers say... The bankers put their foot down. They've said look! Look! If you put her in we're gonna give all our money to the Republicans and that's where it's gonna be So they hate her even though again we talked about this before she's so full of crap whatever she says doesn't mean anything It's interesting because She is such a liar. We know she's a liar, she lied about her family heritage and we know she lied fully well knowing that she was lying

32:14 took advantage of that. I think that she is lying to such a degree, that this whole let's break up Silicon Valley which we know she has no power to break up Silicon Valley companies there would still have to be Congress and Senate and you know they would the Congress would have to make it happen but she'd oh yes all breaking them up these horrible techs...I think that's bullshit too in fact i think this whole Zuckerberg secret recording is part of a setup to show that, oh yeah Liz will be great because she'll be great for Silicon Valley. Here's this 40 second clip. Like Elizabeth Warren who thinks the right answer is to break up the companies you know if she gets elected president then I would bet we will have a legal challenge and I would bet that we will win the legal challenge so it's

33:04 So basically, it's a... Also listen to him stuttering. No hold on, listen to it just follow my logic here for a second I have this clip but I have it within context. I've got a better clip Okay where is it? I have it at the bottom. This is done on Democracy Now!, so we get to listen to Amy Goodman play into it. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has privately slammed Senator Elizabeth Warren's proposal to break up Facebook and other tech giants. On Tuesday, the technology website The Verge published a leaked audio recording of Zuckerberg saying a Warren presidency would quote suck for the company and that he may sue the U.S. government if it attempts to breakup the company

33:47 Like Elizabeth Warren who thinks that the right answer is to break up the companies. If she gets elected president, then I would bet that we will have a legal challenge and I would bet that we will win the legal challenge Does that still suck for us? Yeah! You don't have to have a major lawsuit against our own government That's not like the position you want to be in when your... We care about our country and wanna work with our government to do good things But look at the end of day if someone is gonna try writing something that existential you go to the back and it's fine. Now before I go to the tag there that Amy is gonna do, That's edited! That is not full context of what he said Fox did the same thing where I think it's incredibly important where at the minute he has to talk about Elizabeth Warren He's hemming and hawing and trying to figure out well What am I supposed to say? I have issues with this let's hear Amy

34:40 The words of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Senator Elizabeth Warren responded on Twitter by writing quote what would really suck is if we don't fix a corrupt system that lets giant companies like Facebook engage in illegal anti-competitive practices stomp on consumer privacy rights and repeatedly fumble their responsibility to protect our democracy. Warren wrote now I know that this is full-on conspiracy theory Full-on, but who gives you have that okay? You have the full clip. Let's go back and let's just go over this I believe Amy is a Warren supporter And so she gives a warrant her to raise it long tweet around where that came from seem too long to be a tweet The warrants statement word for word So she'll read the one thing word for word, but you have the Zuckerberg

35:32 clip, word for word where she wouldn't provide us with that. He's trying to remember what he is supposed to say in my conspiracy theory So does that still suck for us? Yeah, I mean we don't have to have a major lawsuit against our own government. That's not like the position you want to be in when your... It's like we care about our country and wanna work with our government to do good things but look at the end of day if someone is gonna try to threaten something that existentially go to them and fight Now here is another part and this just coming together my head now

36:27 When this first came out, Nilay Patel of The Verge like, oh congratulations big scope! Big scope! Oh we got undercover! And I actually tweeted this journalist about it. So instead of releasing the full audio they apparently have, by the way we don't know who it came from no one is asking any questions I don't hear Facebook saying this is horrible. We can't have people spying in our meetings none of that and they decide to release it piecemeal every day a little bit about this a little but...I don't think that's real journalism That's clickbait bullshit

37:05 If you have this tape, do your reporting and then give us the source material. No! They're stretching it out over as long as they can I'm telling you Zuckerberg and Warren are quite possibly in this together and trying to make her look tough when we know she does nothing. We saw the Consumer Protection Board, yeah some bullshit things but I'm still getting phony checks you know the loan offers that looked like checks in the mail and all kinds of credit card interest is 27% Come on! It's crap. I smell a rat in this one, can't prove it total conspiracy theory...I smell a rat Well it's an interesting theory to make her look tough. Oh Warren because the way Amy took it she puts this tough talk Warren on the thing

37:58 Well, you know this may all be academic because Warren may have already been screwed over by the bankers cause apparently all the deals she's done and she would be amenable to Silicon Valley. Let's face it. The Democrats love Silicon Valley that's where they get all their money. All of the new billionaires are from Silicon Valley and they're all Democrats so it makes no sense that she'd go after these big companies unless there was some scheme afoot I mean, now that you mention it. I would have never considered this idea and always just think she's a bonehead and she's like this threat to everybody but it's possible that what you're saying is correct because it does make more sense based on the fact that the Democrats in Silicon Valley are tight they've been very tight for a long time Google has been working on behalf of the Democrats we've already known from the Epstein guy the researcher who showed that you can

38:52 skew numbers, why would the Democrats be against that? Why would they want to bust up Google when Google's helping them. Why would they want to bust up Facebook when generally speaking I think Facebook is helping them and they're all Democrats. Well in fact- So you actually may have inadvertently just on the fly stumbled onto a complete conspiracy theory that might be true! So the true so-called... We're gonna go with it, by the way. Thank you! The so called true... But it's not going to stop Hillary. The so called true Silicon Valley candidate which is supposed to be Kamala Harris she jumped in bed with the New York Times okay? It was an opinion piece but still jumping into bed on one of the most ludicrous ideas I've ever heard.

CHAPTER 07 / 35 Discussion

Kamala Harris, Twitter Suspension of Donald Trump

Senator Kamala Harris called for the suspension of President Donald Trump’s Twitter account, citing his rhetoric regarding the whistleblower as a potential threat to public safety. Simultaneously, New York Times contributor Kara Swisher published an opinion piece arguing that Trump is too dangerous for the platform. Critics suggest that removing the President from social media would lead to a mass migration of users to alternative platforms like Gab or Mastodon.

kamala harris· twitter· donald trump· kara swisher· new york times· censorship

39:47 Frankly, when you look at what he's been tweeting today directed at the whistleblower, um directed it so many people. You know I frankly think that based on this and all we've seen him do before including attacking members of Congress that he frankly should be his Twitter account should be suspended I think there is plenty of now evidence to suggest that he is irresponsible with his words in a way that could result in harm to other people. Harm! And so the privilege of using those words in that way should probably be taken from him. But doesn't that, play into certainly the hands of you know what I don't know how many Twitter followers he has? I think it's in the range of 60 million who say well look okay now they're now

40:29 folks in Silicon Valley are just trying to cut off silence me and taking me off Twitter. I'm so do you hear she's so true she's so pained by what she suggesting because she knows it it's really not the way we should be in America but you know someone might get harmed by his tweets silence me and taking me off Twitter I'm sure that will be said, but we have to also agree that when the President of the United States speaks her words are very powerful.

41:05 Oh, did you hear that? Yeah. Her words! When the President of the United States speaks her words are very powerful and should be used in a way that is not about belittling much less harming anyone And this president has, I think never fully appreciated that responsibility. And so what we see continuously including in the last 24 hours is a use of his words Donald Trump using his words in a way that could subject someone to harm and if he's not going to exercise self-restraint then perhaps there should be other mechanisms in place to make sure that his heart his words do not in fact harm anyone and that's my point

41:53 What we want to make sure is that his words do not actually result in harm to anyone. And in stunning collusion, on the same day The New York Times publishes an opinion piece by Kara Swisher who I consider to at least she believes she's a journalist her article, Trump is too dangerous for Twitter. The president flagrantly violates the social platforms rules it's time to bar him! This is a journalist calling for the barring of the United States President on social media which quite frankly... Before you play that or you don't have a clip? No no I just want to read from it

42:37 But before, yes. Well this reminds me of the journalists who are all against WikiLeaks Oh yeah exactly! Oh let's go! WikiLeaks is terrible it's giving us too much information I mean where did... Where are they coming from? You want more information you want people doing saying stuff you don't want to shut them up It's and well if so is what do you wanna shut him up as part of a system but listen to what she wrote So she's writing in her piece. It so happens that in recent weeks, including at a fancy-pants Washington dinner party this past weekend... Fancy pants! I have been testing my companions with a hypothetical scenario My premise has been to ask what Twitter management should do if Mr Trump loses the 2020 election and tweets inaccurately the next day that there had been widespread fraud and moreover that people should rise up in armed insurrection to keep him in office

43:35 Most people I have posed this question to, have had the same response. Throw Mr Trump off Twitter for inciting violence! A few said he should be only temporarily suspended to quell any unrest Very few said that he should continue using the service without repercussions if he was no longer president One high level government official asked me what I would do My answer? I would never let it get this bad to begin with Now my hypothetical game has come much closer to reality. In using a quote to hide behind what he was trying to say, Mr Trump was testing the system using a tactic that is enormously dangerous." Anyway so she winds it up

44:19 What tactic was dangerous? He tweeted a quote from someone who said that there would be civil war. Oh right, that thing yeah... So to help them figure it out let me end with the words of Abraham Lincoln Who knew a thing or two about civil wars and what they really mean Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to end dare to do our duty as we understand it. It's your duty, Karishwisher! To protect the nation from this evil scourge I personally would love nothing more than for Twitter to cut him off shut him down because that would be the end of Twitter

44:55 and wherever Trump decides to go next, everyone will join. And I suggest Gab! Just go all out Mr President Go straight for Gab Do Mastodon Whatever the hell you want just go straight for it The country will go The journalists will go They'll have to sign up They'll have to participate It doesn't matter where he is the people will be there Kick him off Twitter! KICK HIM OFF You're on a roll I'm super happy about this But for a so-called journalist, because she considers herself a journalist even though she identified someone else as the podfather. So I do have a personal beef with her. She to say that... Well she's got that part of journalism right? Inaccuracy! Oh my goodness we've gone nuts

CHAPTER 08 / 35 Discussion

Media Terminology, Trump Lashing Out Meme

News outlets including Democracy Now! and CBS have increasingly adopted the phrase "lashing out" to describe President Donald Trump's public statements and tweets. The repetitive use of this specific terminology across different networks suggests a coordinated media narrative. Analysis of the term's usage indicates an effort to frame the President's criticisms of the impeachment inquiry as erratic or aggressive behavior.

amy goodman· cbs news· media bias· lashing out· linguistics

45:52 Okay, well let's go a couple of things there something I just want to point out a little a little Something people can look beyond the lookout for my bitch about this before a million times. I wanted to play two clips And I did I can also say that I've seen this in the press two or three times This is Amy Goodman says Amy good man at the desert top clip play this President Trump is continuing to lash out at House Democrats for opening an impeachment inquiry after he pressured the president of Ukraine to investigate his political rival, Joe Biden. Yes one of your favorite words lash lashing out I tell you only Amy was been using every time she refers to Trump is never doing anything is never criticizing or condemning or he's always speaking out or he's never critic whatever there's a lot may I make it and observation before we go into this sure

46:46 The term lashing, I believe...I heard for the first time and most in the series Roots. This is from slavery! The master would lash the slaves. And i think it's no coincidence she's using this word that way. I believe that may be the subtext they're trying to get with but let's read the definition of lashout now as you brought that up. Definition is hit or kick out at someone or something Attack someone verbally, which is what Trump does. But you can also use the word attack once you've used the word attack but curiously there's nothing about slaves in this particular definition but I know what you're saying and I think you're right. There's a British version that nobody has known spend money extravagantly. He does that too!

47:43 I'm not familiar with that use of the term. I never heard it, but there's a bunch of spend lavishly be extravagant pay out spend a lot of money splash out push the boat out, splurge. All those things. Splurge I love splurge So Amy's been using lash-out as the only way of expressing anything Trump does he's always lashing out He's never saying anything He's never speaking about something he's lashing out lashing out lashing and I always thought this was an anomaly with just her because it or you know one of these things they do at that station but meanwhile

48:22 CBS now is using the term play this. This is a CBS adopts lashing out meme. All righty? Good evening, I'm Rena Nynan President Trump on a tweet storm today lashing out at House Democrats labeling them do nothing Democrat savages Yeah, yeah. Lashing out, lashing! The tongue lashings So I saw it in the New York Times and seen it everywhere It's starting to show up, I guess they picked that Amy finally is leading the way Yay Amy! Amy goodness leading the way to using it for everything just whatever Trump does he's lashing out so happy for Amy Finally, she's recognized. Well took a while but they're not crediting her Amy that me Amy the meme maker She's all over it ladies and gentlemen lashing out All right I'll get you started on this unless you have something else like at you started on the next segment okay?

CHAPTER 09 / 35 Discussion

Steve Bannon, Hillary Clinton 2020 Speculation

Steve Bannon suggested in a recent interview that the Democratic establishment is prepared to sacrifice Joe Biden's candidacy to facilitate an impeachment of Donald Trump. Bannon posits that this strategy clears the path for a late entry into the 2020 race by Hillary Clinton or Michael Bloomberg. Clinton has recently increased her public profile, labeling Trump an "illegitimate president" during her book tour.

49:19 You have any chance? No, not on that. I'm good. My next segment's gonna be on Hillary. Yes! That's why i'm going to lead you right into it. Uh oh! Stand back! Oh here she comes again! Steve Bannon also known as Steve Bannon I think this was an in-depth interview on, oh i'm sure it was Fox. Right now the way they're doing this Blitzkrieg particularly what's going on China and China is part of Iran It couldn't come at a worse time but you know what that's not gonna stop them right now What they want to do is nullify the election They think they have a weak field And their prepared as like in chess, they are prepared to sacrifice a rook

49:59 to take down a king. They will throw Biden away, right? They'll throw Biden away to get to Trump and hope Elizabeth Warren or I even think Hillary Clinton or Bloomberg or some centrist comes in here and takes... Hillary Clinton might be back Hillary Clinton's doing a whole thing, a meeting this week for a book she wrote with her. But she came out yesterday and said it's an illegal president, illegitimate president he has to be removed from office... He is in clear and present danger China isn't a clear and present danger The Chinese Communist Party isn't a clear and present danger Donald Trump is a clear and present danger She's running, trying to decide how to fit away in Why doesn't he have more people? Yep Steve Bannon finally listening to the No Agenda show

CHAPTER 10 / 35 Discussion

Bernie Sanders, Health Issues and Campaign Impact

Senator Bernie Sanders was hospitalized for chest pain and underwent a procedure to insert two stents for a blocked artery, forcing him to pause his 2020 campaign. Observers note the timing of the health scare coincides with Sanders leading the Democratic field in fundraising, having raised $25 million in the last quarter. The incident raises questions about his physical stamina and the long-term viability of his candidacy at age 78.

bernie sanders· heart attack· stents· 2020 campaign· fundraising

50:42 He says it right there she's running. Yes, he's listening to old episodes yes so The current thinking by the way for anyone out there who want whose take keeping score and some people making bets is I think a 13-1 shot right now that she I thought declares or gets a nominee if she declares she gets the nomination right well see but seeing as they they poison Bernie or whatever they did oops blood clot. Well, let's play that clip i have a little background on that and I think of the Bernie being hurt clip Sander CBS stent That's exactly what happened. All right, some more breaking news to share with you Bernie Sanders will be off the campaign trail for a few days after being hospitalized for chest pain The Sanders campaign says the Vermont senator experienced chest pain during an event Tuesday evening and had two stents Put in the clear blockage in one of his arteries a statement from the campaign says Sanders is quote Conversing and in good spirits. The campaign also says they are cancelling his events and appearances You know I'm

51:47 So you can recover pretty quickly from this, but it's over for him. No one will have trust in his health at 78? With this going on the only questions he'll get is how is your health... I think its over! He's done for He's done. There is no doubt about it and I think you might be right, there are different things you could get somebody to ingest and it would have a little heart issue and then oh! Stents! The timing is uncanny! Timing is a little too tight

52:23 And it may not be on the debate stage. The debate's coming up next week, I think. Oh! We have an empty seat at the podium! The date will be on the 15th. Bernie probably will be... He may or may not be out there but if he is out there they're going to be staring at him because its like oh this guy just got back from the hospital, he looks healthy. They'll be zooming in on him. They'll be talking about it down and down that you know how's Bernie look? Bernie looked pretty good for a guy who just came off the table So it's gonna be so he's done. So he's sadly, he's done He may not show up but on the 16th Hillary will announce today after the day after the next debate and the reason said we have one of our producers is tracking this an amateur intelligence guy hmm and He noted that Hillary is having huge fundraiser the next day at her house Oh Fun for what? What does she need to raise funds for I

53:21 Hello. Oh, well wait what does she need to raise funds for? Hmm Getting closer it's getting close She may still bail but you know I don't see why why she would I mean it so it set up So beautifully we've got Biden is just I mean he's just gonna have to give up Bernie is out Liz Warren. I don't know I don't see what she could do by the way You saw what win red did With what they raise 125 million dollars with their yelling tactics at people that works pretty well. We should try that ourselves The reason I had to get rid of Bernie's because Bernie was number one on the democrats raising 25 million the next to him was Buddha judge who raised 19 million and then compared to Trump who weighs raised 125

54:16 So the Democrats have to look at this and say, wait we don't want Bernie in the first place but he's raising the most money. We have to put a stop to that so let's just put a stop to him. Literally it's like hey man Bernie just raised 25 million dollars. Take him out! So yeah, 125. So Hillary shows up on The View and she showed up everywhere She was on... I didn't get the clips from uh... I have one from Colbert and I have one from Rachel Maddow Why don't you play your clips in because i have a four-clip series from The View that I want to analyze Yeah, I did not do The View because I saw your clips come in I saw other view okay so I don't have to do that um so last night

CHAPTER 11 / 35 Discussion

Hillary Clinton, Media Tour and Ukraine Commentary

Hillary Clinton appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and The Rachel Maddow Show to promote her new book and support the impeachment inquiry against Donald Trump. She accused the President of putting personal interests ahead of national security regarding military aid to Ukraine. Clinton also attempted to link the current Ukraine controversy back to her long-standing claims of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

hillary clinton· stephen colbert· rachel maddow· ukraine· vladimir putin· impeachment

55:05 was the night before, yeah the night before she was on Colbert and I only just kind of got the intro and the cackling and then her statement just so we can hear how she's thinking. Glad to see you again! Glad to see you! You can't deny they love her at The Colbert Show! Very nice! These are people who are big fans of the alternate timeline we're not living in. So nice to have you both back here and I want to talk about your new book, The Book Of Gutsy Women. Right! Let's hear it for women! And we're going to do that in just a minute, I promise you. But your fault for coming on Ukraine Week now... I think I can do it

56:04 I'm getting there. We learned about the Trump-Ukraine call, uh, the private server... Uh is it time to dare i say lock him up? I created a monster. Isn't that interesting how she should say now, now, now... That's not really cool two wrongs don't make her right

56:41 I created a monster, I apologize. So here we are and we have started an impeachment inquiry which will look at the evidence. We will look at the evidence? I think that's exactly what should be done. This particular incident has had such a huge impact because we've known for a long time that he was a corrupt businessman who cheated people and we've known that. He and his campaign asked for aid from Russia, we've known that but to see him in the office of the president

57:22 putting his own personal and political interests ahead of the national security of our country just pierced through whatever confusion or denial people had. And at that point, Speaker Pelosi rightly said this is something we have to investigate and that's what's going on. So that's what's going on! I love this blatant just lying you know it's and i'm so happy early on the minute this transcript came out and we had all the pieces and we could see pretty much exactly what happened

57:58 And, but that's not the story. This is just repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat and of course let's go on Rachel Maddow. What can you tell the American people watching right now about why it's important for us to support Ukraine? Well first of all look at- Why it's important to support Ukraine by selling them Javelin anti tank weaponry Not aid but selling, but okay. What can you tell the American people watching right now about why it's important for us to support Ukraine? Well first of all look at what he did He obviously used taxpayer-funded assistance passed by the Congress on a bipartisan basis To both threaten and intimidate the new president of Ukraine to investigate his political opponents

58:41 for the purpose of advancing his own re-election. Now, that has so many elements in it and it's one of the reasons why I think its broken through to the American people. It also is troubling that Ukraine has been a subject of constant... Hold on one second. So, troll in the troll room is saying stop lying Adam Curry! He held back aid! All of this done not in the call none of this in the call and I believe that aid was released even before the call so shut up troll! ...and pressure from Vladimir Putin and the Russian interests in Ukraine. So you have the Trump administration, the president, the vice-president others

59:26 actually pressuring a new president who has part of his country invaded and occupied by Russian troops, and putting this poor new president in this vice. You think you're going to get military aid from us? Well we have a favor to ask of you." That was not in the call! We know that the aggressiveness of Putin has been unchecked and in fact I would argue actually accelerated in both rhetoric and potential adverse actions to our interests because of what Trump has made clear that he supports, and looks to Vladimir Putin. So Ukraine is a very specific example of what is at stake

1:00:16 But I don't think it's the only example that we could find if we looked at the transcripts of the calls with Vladimir Putin. Ah, let's get those transcripts! For example... We still have no notes, no reporting about the many meetings and the many calls. We do know that in the Oval Office early in his term Trump basically said to the Foreign Secretary of Russia Sergei Lavrov, to then-Ambassador Kislyak Hey, I don't mind that interference in the election. Wink wink! So this is about Ukraine but Ukraine is the canary in the coal mine about what this president and his allies have been up to Has she gone batshit? She's trying to bring it all back everything that...I mean That doesn't seem like smart tactics on her part Well yeah No well you know she still in denial And she still irked

1:01:15 But did she use the word that he wanted to get dirt? Did she use dirt, which somebody else did one of the congresswomen. Of course Get dirt on his opponents with a plural Yes Who's the other one? Besides Joe Biden who else was involved in this call yeah Yeah you're right nobody no All right so let's So Hillary goes on the view and of course she's just welcome there. She's just... And they're all giddy, except Whoopi. In these clips I have nothing by Whoopi and Whoopi is kind of glaring at her. Well i know why! Did you see what happened to her hair?

CHAPTER 12 / 35 Discussion

Hillary Clinton on The View, 2016 Election Reflection

During an appearance on The View, Hillary Clinton reflected on her 2016 loss, attributing it to voter suppression and the hacking of campaign materials. She admitted to "over-correcting" her public persona to appear more serious as a female candidate but ultimately blamed external factors for the outcome. Clinton also hinted that it is still "early" in the 2020 cycle, fueling speculation about her own political future.

hillary clinton· the view· meghan mccain· voter suppression· hacking· 2016 election

1:02:00 Whoopies hair? Yeah, she's all white on top now. She's made it all... White dreads. Probably woke up and went damn mistake. I don't know what she was glaring at. She wasn't just inactive it was just mostly one of the other women and McCain the McCain girl, who she's all happy for Hillary too. So let's go Hillary on The View one. Let's get into 2020 because that's where the action is right now every day it changes you're watching from the sidelines so how was that emotionally for you? How do you do that well look I am obviously watching it because I care deeply that Trump is a one-term president or less

1:02:48 You know it's still, it's hard to believe but it's still early. Ah! It's still early! Did you hear that? Yes, it is rather early still for what?! For what?! It's hard to believe but it's still early that to me I wouldn't have recorded any of this if she hadn't said that Exactly, she said that. Good catch! That's a tell. So we go on to two and then I have this thing there is a point in here that needs to be made that will be made after the Christmas, but I can't remember but I have noted good point

1:03:25 Still, it's hard to believe but it is still early. You know a lot of the people who were ahead at this point in prior nominating seasons did not end up winning the nomination so its hard to tell right now I just wish everybody well I've talked to most of them and a lot of them call me from time-to-time and ask for advice And then I give em heart attacks? And I just try to give them the very best advice that I can because it really important a group of strong messengers about the alternative. But I think it's really good point, Abby because you got the election going on and you've got impeachment going on. Oh! I like this strong group of messengers they're not candidates they are strong messengers Now remember what this was at the very end she says

1:04:11 It's really a good... What point did anybody make? Let's hear it again. A group of strong messengers about the alternative, but I think it's a really good point Abby because you got the election going on and you've got impeachment going on. She is just making her own she saying her own point is great I think I heard from the beginning nobody made a point there's just a bunch of questions asked of her and she's blathering away and she throws in, i think that's really good point which seems to me is something you...I'm talking to you and your not listening to you. You're saying something to me and I said that's a really good point Adam, and I kid then. I start going on and on again This is something you actually do from time to time. I'll have to pay attention to it But I'm not used these crazy little cliches or bromides to say that's a really good point when in fact if you listen to the entire conversation Nobody made a point no No points zero point

1:05:10 But she says it's a really good point. Alright, well anyway that was just the little thing I picked up on and then there is this next one which is clip three Oh here she is now we're dealing with the blame game whose fault is it? She takes actually takes a little more in a funny offhanded way she kind of blames herself a little bit but its She blames herself for trying too hard or being too good. This is a very funny clip. You got the election going on, you've got the impeachment going on The Democrats have to do two things at once. They have to do the impeachment in a thoughtful, deliberative serious way and they have to do a campaign that talks about why it would be better for Americans when it comes to health care or climate change or whatever the issue might be so that's a difficult balancing act but it has to be done and I know everybody is trying their best as they know

1:06:07 actually get that done. Well you're sitting at a table in good company, Megan myself we've all lost presidential campaigns my family didn't get nearly as far as yours did but we all sat there the next day thinking coulda woulda should have oh right and I know that many mornings where you wake up and this book is all about being gutsy as women and part of being gutsy is looking back and realizing what I could have done different right when you look back on your campaign and what Democrats today might do differently What goes through your mind? What do you wish you had done differently in that moment. I wrote a whole book about it because it was devastating, as it was for the McCain family and your family. There were vodka involved in our election night. Well there is vodka involved every time I traveled with your dad!

1:06:53 But you know what happens on the road stays on the road. He used to say that you were a blast and he loved traveling with you, and my dad said the same thing about you actually. I want to hear these. You know but i think that goes partly to Abby's question. You know I'm a serious person but I'm also a fun person but I think I probably came across as too serious So, you know I really believed that my job especially as a woman and the first woman to go as far as I did. That I had to help people feel good about a woman in the Oval Office A woman commander-in-chief And so I may have over corrected a little bit because sometimes people say oh why can't you be like that or why weren't you like that?

1:07:43 I did feel a heavy sense of responsibility and it was such that, you know maybe i wasn't as loose or open as I could have been. So I take responsibility for everything I didn't do as well or my campaign didn't do as well but take responsibility for Russia. In the end she manages to blame Russia is great so she's the best. So here we go this is the end of it and kind of a wrap and I don't there's nothing particularly on here that I noted but play it. Responsibility for Russia no but that's, that's the issue! I really believed that there were unprecedented events in this election-the last election I mean-that were

1:08:35 Beyond my understanding and nearly anybody else's when we started talking in the summer of 2016 about the Russians You know I think most of the press and the public goes what is she talking about? No, you can't go around making excuses. They didn't understand the attack that we were unfortunately suffering so I think now, and here's what i've told all the candidates. You could run the best campaign you could be the nominee but you can still lose because number one you could lose with voter suppression and you had Stacey Abrams on she is a champion for let everybody vote at the end of day who wins wins and who doesn't doesn't or you can lose because hacking and theft of material Oh God!

CHAPTER 13 / 35 Discussion

Media Impeachment Compilation, 2016 to Present

A compilation of news clips demonstrates that mainstream media outlets have been discussing the impeachment of Donald Trump since the day he was elected in 2016. The montage highlights various pundits and anchors suggesting impeachable offenses ranging from tweets to hypothetical scenarios. This historical context suggests that the current inquiry is the culmination of a multi-year media and political effort.

impeachment· media montage· donald trump· mainstream media

1:09:25 Oh my goodness. Yeah, that's why she lost. She lost because of hacking. Yes and voter suppression we all know this so okay if people believe that then we deserve Hillary Clinton as president if that's how it's gonna go then we just deserve it There's a couple things I wanted to play before we take a break. We're running long, affiliates please take note because there were a few interesting little bits that i picked up here and there first day a nice quick little compilage that this impeachment just so we remember because it's hard to keep track of the bull crap This has been going on since the day Trump was elected, the call for impeachment. An M5M compilage. If he takes the risk of going to trial and is convicted that could be seen as an impeachable offense. If Trump were caught on a video camera snorting cocaine in the White House maybe with one of his children there was at least a chance he'd be impeached.

1:10:20 There are tools that Congress has. I don't see how that wouldn't be an impeachable offense That tweet fits the Republican definition of an impeachable offense more fully than what Bill Clinton was actually impeached for Impeachment is very difficult for impeachment. An impeachable offense. It is grounds for impeachment, potentially criminal or even impeachable grounds for impeachment or does that not go far enough in your view? Grounds for impeachment this tweet alone may be an impeachable offense let's talk about impeachment. Impeachment is on the table which impeachable offenses and impeachable offense do you see an impeachable set of offenses it's an impeachable offense if that's not impeachable I don't know what is the president shall be removed from office on impeachment is it impeachable

CHAPTER 14 / 35 Discussion

The Badasses, Rebranding House Democrats

CNN has introduced a group of freshman Democratic congresswomen, including Alyssa Slotkin and Abigail Spanberger, under the label "The Badasses." These women, all with backgrounds in the military or CIA, are being credited with providing the "tipping point" for the impeachment inquiry. This branding appears to be an effort by the Democratic Party to shift the public face of the caucus away from the more controversial "Squad."

badasses· cnn· alyssa slotkin· abigail spanberger· cia· military veterans

1:11:20 100% is impeachable. Very substantial evidence that the president is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors grounds for impeachment tipping point talk of impeachment reaches a fever pitch on Capitol Hill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi under growing pressure from her own party here we go again so really just the last three bites there in that compilage were from 2019 all the rest is from the day he became president Now you mentioned something on the last show which I went back and found, because the credit for the impeachment for Nancy Pelosi's decision to impeach was not given to The Squad. It was not given to the four women of color at least not by CNN and perhaps not by the Democrat Party No it is the badasses

1:12:12 The badasses are the ones who are responsible for the tipping point in the impeachment, CNN explains. Even before they were elected you have adopted the badass label these freshman congresswomen created their own group The badasses. I might point out all of these women are white. We were out running for Congress, you know across the country and we kept running into each other. Badasses kind of came organically from the group since we had either served in the military or in the CIA Being able to text folks and say You know I'm really getting hit up on this issue How have you been handling it? Um...I'm not sure how to translate my service Into something that's relatable How do you guys do that

1:12:55 Translating their service is exactly what they did with their 180 on starting an impeachment inquiry. Going from no to yes after hearing President Trump admit he spoke to Ukraine's leader about Joe Biden, others followed suit including the House Speaker. The specter of having the sitting president of United States use leverage over a foreign leader to get dirt on an opponent like that very basic idea I think cut for us as national security people just close to the bone on, you know sort of our democratic institutions. They penned an op-ed along with two freshman male veterans It was a great example of the power of teamwork and the power of kind of doing putting country above party Was it all for one on one for all? Oh absolutely I think we all sort of came to that conclusion together We text each other And i think we were going okay this is all changed This is a bright line

1:13:47 Backing an impeachment inquiry is risky political business for these Congresswomen, already some of the most vulnerable in the House. Democrats who won in mostly Trump territory. I believe that if I am out there explaining what these allegations are and why they are so deeply concerning, that people will understand why we had to take a stand. All of us in our prior lives all the time had to make hard calls for the reasons we thought were right when we knew that not everyone would understand or even know and that to me is something I feel comfortable doing because i've always had to do it So the badasses here who are now being given credit extensively by CNN

1:14:31 I've never heard of Alyssa Slotkin of Michigan, Abigail Spanberger Virginia. I almost had a Slotkin clip because Slotkin comes on...I'll have this clip for the next show. She's ex-CIA i think isn't she? Ex military I know she might be a spook but she's a young millennial spook and she seems like a dimwit so I really doubt she's...she does. Well of course not! Go ahead. But the thing was she goes on and on, and you can tell by listening to her that she has never read it... She's been told what to do. She has never read what we've read and what we talk about. But more importantly this is a rebranding they're trying to rebrand

1:15:14 away from the squad. The squad is toxic! No, I'm gonna agree with that. The squad is toxic it's Trump that tried to make them the head of the Democrats and everybody's playing along now trying to make these badasses these women the titular heads representative heads face at the party yes and meanwhile this nobody notices the blatant racism? Well I did I'm sorry, they're not. And by the way we were talking about the squad, the black and Muslim mixture... Yeah It's no good! Let's also mention Maxine Waters and Al Green who have been calling for impeachment and actually thrown it to the floor. Al Green put a resolution up that got voted down but he's

CHAPTER 15 / 35 Discussion

Maxine Waters, Solitary Confinement Comments

Congresswoman Maxine Waters stated in a televised interview that President Donald Trump should be imprisoned and placed in solitary confinement. While she later clarified that the current focus is on the impeachment process, she maintained that his actions regarding the whistleblower warrant severe punishment. Her comments reflect the intensifying rhetoric from the progressive wing of the House of Representatives.

maxine waters· donald trump· solitary confinement· imprisonment· impeachment

1:16:02 He's mashed potatoes? I mean what is the... Well, well. These guys get no zero credit! Maxine of course not standing for this blatant racism from her own party she's got to get out there she's gotta she's gotta get her word in and she's doubling down Congresswoman i want to ask you about something you said as you know many our viewers know uh you speak your mind Many people like that and as I think you know many people disagree with you. It's politics. That's right. I want to read something he said today, to get a fuller understanding. He said... Okay With regard to Donald Trump, he is using mob language. He is implying people should be killed for whistleblowing Impeachment is not good enough for Trump. He needs to be imprisoned and placed in solitary confinement But now impeachment IS the imperative That's right

1:16:47 I ask you tonight, are you speaking literally? And do you have any concern that your prejudging the House impeachment and Senate trial process by declaring he should be convicted and held in solitary. No, not really. As you said I said impeachment is the imperative. I did express myself in ways to show how terrible I think he is and how he really should be punished but of course impeachment is what we're focused on right now. I like the whole solitary confinement. Don't backpedal!

1:17:22 I think that's great. Now here is the one that really has been bothering me because I've been hearing this for a while... And by the way, so I'm going to stop you real quick in fact if she didn't backpedal She's stuck with a solitary confinement thing it would have improved her popularity totally crowd that likes totally I don't know why she why she's pulling back on that. I think I don't know why she backed off on this stick with it You think the guy should be in solitary confinement or? electrocuted for that matter All right, so here's the thing that is very interesting you This is the meme that's going around. I've read it here and there, heard it a couple times and finally got a clip And this clip is from a massive douchebag Mike Murphy He is a campaign advisor for Romney, campaign advisor for McCain He'll even refer to Romney as if he doesn't work for him or never did

CHAPTER 16 / 35 Discussion

Mike Murphy, Secret Senate Impeachment Vote

Political strategist Mike Murphy claimed that if the Senate were to hold a secret vote on the impeachment of Donald Trump, at least 30 Republican senators would vote to convict. This narrative is being pushed by figures like Jeff Flake to suggest deep-seated GOP opposition to the President. However, Senate rules and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell make the prospect of a secret ballot highly unlikely.

mike murphy· mitt romney· senate· impeachment· secret ballot

1:18:16 And the way impeachment works briefly, the House files articles of impeachment. Then it goes to the Senate there's a jury trial in the case of impeachment of a president. The chief justice will preside and the Senate is really only the jury they then listen to all the evidence presented and it could be quite extensive and then they will go on vote And now listen to this Romney douche. I left that in there, actually i left a bit of Andrea in there just so you could hear him say yeah no

1:18:58 Yeah, no the old theory on impeachment was it would help the Republicans. I think that's out the window now This is a much clearer incident than the Mueller report information And so when the president released this transcript you really have to parse your way through it and eliminate all Subtexts to say no quid pro quo. I mean I agree with David It doesn't have to be a quid pro quo but look at the context they are the aide of the Ukraine defensive military Aid was held up the president of Ukraine asked for anti-tank missiles because he's got a problem, Russian tanks, Russian mercenary tanks and the President says let me talk to you about some other things. You know I'm a great friend of the Ukraine except it hasn't really been paid back! Let's get into this Biden matter. It is a classic shakedown that is going be argument and I am telling you these Senate Republicans should the Democrats vote impeachment which I think is far more likely than not are gonna be pinned down do yes no answer if they provide cover

1:19:53 for Donald Trump on this, a clear violation of his role as president. We're going to lose Colorado with Cory Gardner and we're going to lose Maine with Susan Collins and we are going to lose Arizona with McSally and it's gonna be you know the Democrats will put the Senate very much in place so It's not only a question of what they ought to do, the cold hard politics of it are going to get worse and worse for Trump. And maybe that will motivate him going forward I think Romney is right more facts. One Republican senator told me if it was a secret vote 30 Republican senators would vote to impeach Trump. Yeah, if it was a secret vote then we'd really get a true vote. A true real vote of what these senators think if it was a secret vote They're actually trying to push for this impeachment in the Senate to be a secret vote Jeff Flake is saying... Well if there's a secret vote its quite likely that a lot of Democrats would vote the other way too so this nonsense but

1:20:54 This is interesting to listen to because if you remember before the election, the same kind of guy and I think this guy was one of them that was on all the networks saying oh my god what's going to happen is Republicans are gonna lose their house. And they didn't lose their house, they won their house. They only lost a house recently in midterm elections They're gonna lose the House, and they're gonna lose the Senate. And Hillary's gonna be president and they had all this saying we're not going to win this or that I wish I had those clips but the same clip from 2016 is exactly like that. It's always gonna be bad for Republicans! And it never turns out to be

1:21:35 Well, keep your eye on this secret vote business. I don't even know if that's possible. Yeah, it can go either way. It's rules are rules and it's a funny thing to talk about it's another talking point McConnell is not gonna let it happen there's no way they'd have to change the rules of the Senate do it which isn't not going to happen A and B this is just another oh well he would have been impeached If...if it was a secret vote It was a secret vote. All right, I'm gonna take us into our rest moment here with a setup for end of show ISO. I think the M5M really missed a great opportunity so they can take this from me and they can make their own little mix if they want to but i'm giving the m5m some ammunition here against President Trump listen to this clip when he was sitting with the president of Finland

CHAPTER 17 / 35 Discussion

Donald Trump, President of Finland Press Conference

During a joint press conference with Finnish President Sauli Niinistö, President Donald Trump had a sharp exchange with a reporter, telling them to ask the Finnish leader a question instead. The moment was highlighted for Trump's aggressive tone toward the press. The interaction occurred amidst heavy questioning regarding the ongoing whistleblower complaint and Ukraine.

1:22:29 And there's a lot of static. Here we go. Are you talking to me? Yeah, it was just a follow up of what I just asked you sir. Listen, listen! You ready?! We have the president of Finland ask him a question. I have one for him. I just wanted to follow-up on the one that i asked you which... Did you hear me? What did you want...? Did you hear me?

No Agenda Producer Credits, Knighting Ceremony

The program acknowledges significant financial contributions from producers under the value-for-value model. Sir Mark Milliman is elevated to the rank of Baron following a substantial donation, while Sir Patrick Coble is recognized for his support and upcoming meetup in Tokyo. The hosts discuss the importance of community support in maintaining the show's independence from traditional advertising.

I need to teach him You don't kick trolls out of the chat room you let them troll it makes them feel good It makes me feel happy No, no agenda stream calm and in the morning to our artists that kicked people out all the time Yeah But I that's but that was when it was a chat room now. It's a troll room

1:24:23 There's a difference. The title of that episode moral army and this was the artist at war Which was total inside baseball for the show, and I think everyone appreciated it exactly for that reason We had Nick the rats in there. We've got a comic strip blogger they're all it's a draw drawn up fight to the death we've got Darren O'Neill and everybody's in this piece And it wasn't original piece and just just a dime. I mean I would want this printed out and framed That's how good it is

1:25:03 I'm gonna put it on a mug the I will say this if we hadn't have teased the fact that Nick was going to get a three-peat yeah And they needed a block somebody needed to block him. Yes, and that he started the war It may have not the piece may not have happened But it did and now it's gonna be brutal well No Nick the rat this morning announced He will not be submitting artwork for this episode He's gone on a comic strip blogger hiatus. Yes, he's taking himself out! He's out of the running and by the way I would like to mention that i've been in contact with Apple and indeed The pod- the apple podcast app in the new iOS 13 is broken and does not show episodic album artwork They're aware of the issue

1:25:59 And I know the people I talk to inside of Apple care about it and they would really like it fixed. In fact, they identified the bug themselves because they subscribe to The Best Podcast in The Universe there at Apple But apparently it's not high enough on the radar. I don't know how it works, but I think it's a huge mistake... ...I think it's very bad that Apple is not prioritizing this because everyone is going to run away and they're gonna run to overcast on iOS Which is a great app made by a guy who gives a shit about podcasting So I'm very very disappointed in their priorities over there No dark mode! That's cool Dark Mode! DARK MODE!!!

1:26:40 But actually breaking something that was working and not fixing it out. No, no no who cares about the art dark mode? Noah gender Art generator commas where you can find all of the artwork that is submitted for every episode we have ten times the amount of Submissions as we do that with course even episodes We love it people love looking at them their fun Their fun to browse through and You can also go to noagendashop.com where they will put this on a mug and they will give a piece to the artist, take a piece for themselves and a piece of the show it's all part of our value for value network and we love it and we love what our artists do thank you very much Mike Riley for the outstanding work on uh the previous show 1177 I don't think my Riley has ever gotten a three peat not sure I'm pretty sure there are only guys there's only very few people that can do it

1:27:34 Martin JJ for sure. I don't know if Nick Durant has he might have been Martin JJ for sure and then some of the guys who are long since retired. Couture? O'Neal, yeah they've retired so long ago we forgot who they are this is bad. This is bad. I can almost remember. Alright well it's beside the point because we're talking about people who helped to show through financial contributions starting with Sir Mark Milliman and he came in with a copy of War and Peace on here, $667. He also donated $333 further down on the same list for 1,000 so he actually made two donations I don't know if he explains why he did it this way. Well he explains a lot about the world in what he wrote us as much his support of the show is so appreciated

1:28:31 This is just too long and he's basically giving us the script to a podcast he should do. He really should, he has a lot of good thoughts about 5G, he's got good thoughts about the spectrum in general... But this would take us... Well he says right at the bottom, around page 50. He says again don't worry about the note just name me as a producer Baron. He's got a Baron, it is an Insta-Baron by the way. Nice nice nice. Give me a little job karma okay?

CHAPTER 20 / 35 Discussion

Social Media Strategy, No Agenda Social

The hosts discuss the futility of arguing with trolls on Twitter and advocate for the use of No Agenda Social, a Mastodon-based instance. They suggest that producers should avoid long threads with bad-faith actors and instead invite people to join their "crazy cult" for a different perspective. The conversation highlights the benefits of decentralized social media for fostering constructive community interaction.

twitter· no agenda social· mastodon· trolls· blocking

1:38:49 I did want to make an editorial comment. Over the past few, probably the past week and it happened to you as well I saw some trolls come in on Twitter and I only look at my notifications I don't look at Twitter at all i'm on noagendasocial.com that's really where I get information from and can follow people and see everything they say but But on Twitter, you know invariably something will be posted and some douche hat comes in and goes... And of course I completely ignore that. But our producers a lot of them have royalty standing in our peerage system will jump in and start to argue which of course results in a very long thread that I'm tagged in and it's to me entertaining but I'd like to make suggestion

1:39:43 This is futile, first of all. There's no... unless you're just doing it to get your kicks and you know and I and it's kind of the same guys as guys who are in different time zones Chris Wisser, Chris Wilson will end and although you're doing it in a finessed way It's futile! I would say don't argue on Twitter And then say hey if you want your amygdala to be shrunken Or if you don't want to be all triggered then go listen to the Noah Jenner show. It's called hitting people in the mouth I would like to suggest a different tactic because this doesn't work with people who just will never Never listen or they'll listen and within three seconds. We'll decide we're Old white boomers With boomer talk, this is the new insult your old Boomer straight Boomer I would say it would probably more effective if you said oh

1:40:41 Hey, you know I hear you there but we were members of a crazy cult that discusses news and we laugh and We're a cult. And we're very kind of wacky and you might want to check us out. I think that's gonna be more effective In fact, I just think people should call us a crazy cult on Twitter. Oh, it's just a crazy cult What are your thoughts John? Well, I'm disagreeing with this the way that Chris Wilson incident. You're familiar with it? You can do what you could do that if you think is funny but I look at these guys a guy that one guy got me he had one follower He just joined that morning so we can make it

CHAPTER 21 / 35 Discussion

Austin Homeless Crisis, Governor Greg Abbott Ultimatum

Texas Governor Greg Abbott sent a letter to Austin Mayor Steve Adler threatening state intervention if the city does not address its growing homeless crisis by November 1st. The conflict follows the city council's decision to lift bans on camping and sitting in public spaces, leading to increased visibility of encampments. Mayor Adler defended the policy, claiming the city lacks the resources to provide adequate housing despite significant private sector growth.

austin· greg abbott· steve adler· homelessness· public safety

1:42:22 You're on the thing. By the way, no agenda social is far superior I agree there all the time Okay The Unhoused of Austin Texas we are the ground zero of possibly making some interesting decisions in the homelessness conversation that is raging across cities large and small in these United States of our country America And we know that the city of Austin, the council in their wisdom and the mayor decided to lift the no-camping rules. Now people can camp and sit wherever they want, and that has brought the homeless into the city into great visibility

1:43:05 If you haven't heard it, I did an interview with Alan Graham of Mobile Loaves and Fishes. You can just search for that you'll find that interview he has a fantastic concept six million dollars a year He's housing or the people are working paying rent they used to be chronically homeless 250 of them currently for this very small amount so if there systems that are working but now that of course is not what Austin thinks we should do And people are very frustrated. Town halls come and go, nothing changes. Finally our governor Greg Abbott took a stand! Today I sent this letter to Austin Mayor Adler about the growing crisis arising from the Austin homeless policy Some businesses are struggling to keep sidewalks clear some homeowners feel threatened

1:43:58 Some homeless are interfering with sidewalks, with streets and with rights of way. Feces and used needles are accumulating at alarming rates! Let me tell you if Austin does not fix this homeless crisis by November the 1st I will unleash the full authority of every state agency to protect the health and safety of all Texans. That should be interesting Let's send the National Guard over. Let's take care of this Mayor Adler." I like this fight, Mayor Adler replied with very... well here it is. So let's talk about what happened since June. The first thing that has happened since June and i think its important to note What do you think he'll blame? What do you think he will blame the problems on if you were to guess

1:44:53 Trump could guess is that we have maintained our laws against illegal conduct behaviors That people complain about it is against the law in this city to defecate there to urinate or It is against this law to masturbate in public places. What? I didn't know that! Is that a problem?! Yes, yeah there are homeless people who are... And there's a lot of potted plants around? These are people with psychological problems, obviously. But there's not enough... the police can't do anything because they really are not empowered and nothing is going to happen and the whole thing is just a sad affair but yes masturbating in public is illegal. It is against this law to masturbate in public places

1:45:43 It's against the law in this city to impede or to block someone's ability to use public spaces like on a sidewalk. it's against the law in this city To aggressively confront someone by the way, it's against the law to impede someone on the sidewalk Never heard him say that when there was a million scooters litter all over the place But okay, it's against the law in this city and this state to criminally trespass all of those things remain true I've seen the same social media posts that you all have seen and that many people see and react to. I went again to my police chief today, and I asked him if we were able to enforce the laws in our city? And he told me yes

1:46:28 I repeated to him again if you need additional support. Notice what he's saying here, he's saying I went to the police chief and said do everything you need to enforce the laws of this city which would be a lot of things it doesn't sound like he specifically said can you enforce these minor infractions which are very debilitating to the overall community no back it up and play that again sure thing it's a weasel is a weasel force the laws that you all have seen and that many people see and react to. I went again to my police chief today, and I asked him if we were able to enforce the laws in our city? And he told me yes. I repeated it to him again if you need additional support or help from the council to be able to enforce the laws in this city ask and you'll get it

1:47:24 He tells me that he has what he needs at this point to be able to enforce our laws. So I look at the social media posts and the memes, and I recognize that even before June there were people doing things against our law, certainly there were pictures of them. We continue to have that same thing." Again, I would repeat if my police chief needs more help from the council. He just needs to ask for it." So let's just push it off to the police chief... So, well clearly he says he has enough resources. He's not doing... Take it up with him? Take it up with the cops? It's not me! I'm just the mayor! I asked him and he said yep so okay. What is the solution? The wonderful thing about this social challenge Is that it doesn't make any difference if you're only concerned about people or places Or like most of us are concerned about both The answer is the same We have to get people into housing And with appropriate services

1:48:25 Because we know that that works. Yes, how's that working in California John? We know it works getting people into housing affordable housing with services is that working out there That's the system you guys have How does it work and is it working tell me is it working Well, if you count tents as housing. Yeah, it's working great. Austin Texas one of a handful of states in the country that was able to reach effective zero veteran homelessness We didn't do that by taking our vets they were experiencing homelessness and hiding them This is interesting

1:49:05 I can go to five different corners, or I can show you five different intersections on highways where homeless — apparent homeless unhoused — are standing with a sign that says Vietnam veteran. Veteran! I'm a vet so if we have zero veterans are these guys imposters? What's going on?! We didn't even fix that by building large institutions to house them We did it by writing down their names. And then one at a time figuring out what it was that person needed, working with the apartment association and the real estate council. Working with ECHO and Caritas and Salvation Army and Community First and finding people better places to live. He's working with Caritop! No wonder it's not happening here in Austin! If we know what works if only our community were willing to scale it...if only we had the resources

1:50:03 Oh, we don't have any money. Oh I see what we know works We did the same thing last year with a boy talking like this now We did the same thing on our grant from the federal government to address homeless children on our streets We used that money and we took half of the children and youth on our streets That were homeless and ate them then we moved them off our streets last year Okay This guy is full of crap And to say, oh the real estate association yeah they've got it. We don't have the money! It's unbelievable and I guess the very left-leaning people of influence in Austin think it's great. I don't know what is happening here but I look forward to November 1st

1:50:57 Let's see if... He's gonna get re-elected. No, November 4th? No he is not up for election I think these jamokes they sit in office for five years or something It's not a... Well, I think it's worse here. We got London Breed of all the crazy names if that is indeed her real name and things have gotten worse in San Francisco since she got out and she was gonna do this, she's another big bull shit or big talker no action. Same thing yeah. I was in the city yesterday to go pick something up and then came back through this same area always take the same kind of route there's gotta lot of homeless in it and then one little area where they put together this cute little park

1:51:37 I don't know what the point of it was to begin with, but something between two freeways and it's just filled with... Every time I go there's more people. Now they're just an encampment more than ever before. And now you're begging for money on the freeway entrances? But they're begging for money way up the freeway entrance Oh really? So that ramp that goes up there, they're all the way at the top. They're not to the top yet but they're way too far out. Wow huh yeah There you go. What are ya gonna do? What are we going to do with a bunch of Democrats? Well it's easy to say that but... I know and i say it all time It's chicken shit to say this is what you should say Yeah it's chicken shit to say.

1:52:35 It's people who don't want it in their backyard. He says he got five million dollars from the federal government and that's how we got the vets off the streets, although I see a lot of them holding a vet sign so they must be lying but we don't have the resources this is one of those... Google is building a 5,000 employee building right now downtown there's money There's money. We're building a soccer stadium, a soccer stadium! There's money but no not for this I don't understand it if i didn't know well maybe I don't know better is being done on purpose I don't get it No one seems to understand this start worrying we are working on that one as being done on purpose

1:53:23 That would that sounds like it to me. So cynical though if that's really true, that's just what that's man That's horrible well. It's got something to do with the agenda 21 Well, that's for sure so let's go deal This is some screwball clips that are all kind of discrepant There's not no theme here I got no themes left for today, but I do have some clips we should hear okay? And there's a couple of kickers in here that are kind of interesting here and there. Listen to this one, see if you can spot the what? What? This is a what? What anniversary of Khashoggi.

Jeff Bezos, Jamal Khashoggi Vigil in Istanbul

Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos attended a vigil in Istanbul to mark the one-year anniversary of the assassination of columnist Jamal Khashoggi. The event took place outside the Saudi consulate where the killing occurred. Bezos's presence at the international event highlights the ongoing tension between the Washington Post and the Saudi government.

1:54:01 And today marks one year since the Saudi-born Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi was brutally assassinated inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. The masterminds of the killing remain at large. Last year, the CIA concluded Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had ordered Khashoggis' killing but the prince remains a close ally of the U.S government Earlier today, Khashoggi's widow and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos attended a vigil outside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. In Istanbul no less? Bezos went to Istanbul for that? That's what makes me wonder... What?! Huh! Jamal Khashoggi Now so they have a little vigil on it how many people are there and why is Bezos

CHAPTER 23 / 35 Discussion

Amber Guyger Trial, Text Messages as Evidence

During the sentencing phase of the Amber Guyger trial in Dallas, prosecutors introduced the defendant's private text messages and social media posts as evidence. Guyger was convicted of murder for the shooting of Botham Jean in his own apartment. The use of digital communications in court serves as a warning about the lack of privacy and the potential for self-incrimination in the digital age.

amber guyger· dallas· murder trial· evidence· privacy

1:54:51 Now Bezos, oh yeah Washington Post you know I just own it. I show you how to make money and not really too involved Why is Bezos going all the way to Istanbul? Maybe there's a business deal involved For the chicks man The chicks of Istanbul Yeah, well maybe. Okay here's another one now this woman in I guess it was in Dallas is Geiger woman who walked into the wrong apartment gunned down some poor bastard was in there thinking she thought was her place yes hey guy was unarmed a whole thing I mean he's just a just one of the stupidest police stories you've ever heard and she got found guilty. She found guilty of murder so wait they found her guilty of murder and so she's toast

1:55:35 But right now they're in the process of sentencing her and tell me what you find about this particular clip that That is distressing. Well, prosecutors are showing the jurors text messages and social media posts to kind of give them a sense of who Geiger is. And that evidence will factor into their sentencing and after yesterday's hearing there was a lot for them to go over. Keep in mind she faces five to 99 years in prison. You don't think it's a little I'd say ominous that they're using her text messages against her?

1:56:40 I mean this is, but I think the public should be aware of this because it's... Hello? It's a yes well something we've been harping on for years but this is a real solid example here because nobody even thinks of questioning. This is like testifying against yourself right self-incrimination Interesting There's a whole bunch of things involved here, but no. No these texts you know y'all you put it out there You said it well In normally you say stuff It would be like hearsay you know what I heard her saying that she didn't like this guy But now he got your text you're creating your own death dossier Yes Yeah Your own you are putting together the evidence against you people think about it when you're texting anything

1:57:26 Yes, and it's not just that. It's anything you do on... I've always said that if you're gonna hire somebody, especially not so much now because it's been kind of like changed. They've changed where all the stuff is now it's like Google images and there are other things but in the olden days five or six years ago, I would always go to somebody's Flickr account if they had one or any other photo account and take a look at their pictures and find them drunk at parties You know, just looking like idiots and saying crazy stuff. Find their Instagram account go through it get far as back as you can That's right while I have been professing the benefits of going off the grid or OTG you are the tree to true OG OTG guy Oh

Smartphone Addiction, Manchester Walking Lanes

The city of Manchester has reportedly introduced designated "slow lanes" for pedestrians who are distracted by their smartphones. This initiative aims to prevent collisions between "phone zombies" and other commuters. The hosts discuss the broader societal impact of smartphone addiction and propose a game to track the number of people oblivious to their surroundings while using mobile devices.

manchester· smartphone· walking lane· distraction· zombie lane

1:58:23 Yeah, it's not so good to be participating in all of that. Did you see that in Manchester now? They have opened a slow lane for people to walk in while they're on their phone Yes, you mean so it's like just like a bike path. We have a bike symbol on the asphalt they have a This is idiotic this can't be true No there's a picture even as a picture well send me the picture up in the newsletter Yeah, let me just make sure I'm not full of crap yeah Manchester yeah There is its AO mobile phone lane and there's and there's like a little phone with footsteps in it

1:59:18 So that you know, that's where you can walk undisturbed while looking at your phone. This is... It's the zombie lane I tell ya! That's really.... taking things far. Whereas the- You know, it's not just kids either that you know and you point ever since you pointed out to me that people hold their phone constantly they're holding their phone wherever they go like if they're just holding it wherever they are yeah oh yeah but a lot of people are now what they're holding and looking at there looking look and lookin I was at Costco the other day is not just teenagers because at Costco its mostly middle aged people and there's these middl age people inside even some gray hairs

1:59:55 And they're roaming around looking at their phone, pushing the cart looking at their phone. You can kind of step in front and you want to... Hey! Get out here hippie! Oh I'm sorry, sorry! Did you use a get out my way hippie? Is that what you said? No no oh you hit me. You hit me because you can see one of these guys and position yourself so they kinda bump into ya. And then make a big fuss about it Well, Costco has those enormous carts which is fun. I'm gonna try that! We're gonna go...I'm sure we're gonna go Saturday and then when someone's on their phone pushing the cart and just going to wheel it in front of them and they're gonna hit me i'm gonna go hey you hit me! You can do it! It's very easy to do. Just a little Dvorak story. I used to work with a guy at the air pollution district who used to be an insurance adjuster

2:00:49 And he said one of the great, he talked about different kinds of scams. You know slipping on the lettuce leaf and all these different things you could do to get a quick 500 bucks but he says that the real killer is nowadays it's gotta be even easier with the money. with the people on their phone. He says you go around Lake Merritt, there's a drive-around Lake Merritt in Oakland and it's like a big thoroughfare and you go around and you just keep looking until you find that woman who is putting on her makeup and looking into the mirror trying to drive. You pull in front of her and then you keep an eye on her and then slam on the brakes and let her rear engine. And you say hey, there was dog in the road! And then he says if you really want to do it right

2:01:30 And this is advice that I've never used, but I'm gonna give it to anyone out there. He says you want to really do it right? Do not move after you get hit. Oh no of course not! Stay in the seat and say I can't move, I need an ambulance You are a cart bumper man, you're your gold So instead of that advice here's the advice I give everyone when you go OTG which means you have a piece-of-crap phone that basically lets you text take calls and If you want get on some kind of web browser. That's about it. I like the cloaked iPhone 5 I've got the privacy pro app in there and no apps zero apps No apps only the standard apps that come with the phone now

2:02:14 So it does nothing which is the whole point. The point is not to be a zombie, the government you know that's a whole different story It's a little harder to protect yourself from that but Because you have a phone that doesn't function, and especially in the beginning it's a little hard when you're trying to get into this lifestyle of living and breathing and seeing your surroundings when you're outside. You can play a game And it's the OTG points game So here is how it works For every person who was standing somewhere out in the open

2:02:51 Looking at their phone not talking. I think that's different, but looking at their phones standing two points someone who is Walking while on the phone as three points if you see someone do that in the car It's five points You will rack up a hundred points within ten minutes and that's when you realize how fortunate you are That you're not a mind-controlled zombie like the rest of them It will it will behoove you your relationships You'll probably have to drag some of your family members into the OTG lifestyle because you'll become very annoyed by them And you'll start to notice like jeez Now, you still want to keep some some Some zombies handy in case you know that's your tip in case. You need to look something up. He just say hey Can't look this up for me

Chris Morris, The Day Shall Come Film

Director Chris Morris discussed his new film, "The Day Shall Come," which satirizes the FBI's practice of orchestrating domestic terror plots to secure arrests. Morris claims the FBI is the largest recruiter of terrorists in the United States, often targeting vulnerable individuals with no actual means to carry out attacks. The film is based on numerous true stories of government entrapment and the high conviction rates that follow.

chris morris· fbi· entrapment· terrorism· satire

2:03:38 No, sure boss. I got my phone here. What do you have one the other day at dinner? I said what is that about just get to somebody look it up and I had two people looking up doing competitive look-ups so Competitive look ups Competitive look ups see who can get to the look of me at the right answer there quickest. Hey, I have a couple of us literally too standalone clips which I think are very interesting that I'd like to share no big reveal but This aired in the UK. I think it's ITV maybe was BBC director Chris Morris and Chris Morris he had a Four Lions Was his movies this guy is a director comedic director He has a new movie out called the day shall come and I think the premise is and

2:04:31 And it's American actors, as far as I can recall from the trailers. A black guy who gets drafted by the FBI and I think that he is black is pertinent to this story He'll talk about this movie in the context of what we call The FBI six-week cycle And this is not a revelation for anyone who's been listening to the show for, I don't know six months or longer because you've heard about this. We heard it from an insider years ago that every six weeks or so the FBI needs to uncover some terrorist plot

2:05:11 so that they can remain relevant and keep their budgets going, and they're standing in the intelligence community. So he turned this into a movie. Chris Morris you'll probably fault me on this but The Day Shall Come seems to me to be... ...a more serious departure from Four Lions or are you gonna tell me it's exactly the same theme? No, it's not exactly the same thing because I think Four Lions is about four people or five people who are terrorists and this is about a group of people who definitely aren't. So this film sort of comes in under two questions which is one Who is the biggest recruiter of terrorists in the USA? And two

2:05:48 what would you do if you were broke about to lose your house and someone offered you a hundred grand? And that's really the answer to the first question is rather surprisingly, the biggest recruiter of terrorists in the States is the FBI. And the answer to the second one gives you the clue as to how our story works because the FBI have accidentally it seems developed a system which works rather well than the system They make up a terrorist plot they find someone to try and carry it out And they arrest them for doing that and then get the kudos for having fought the great war against terrorists Well, they get they they get all sorts of things really I mean it's quite complicated but I guess the essential Element of our story is that these people are not terrorists But the government ends up putting them in jail for very long time. Yes 25 30 years and there's a

2:06:37 Close to 100% conviction rate in these cases and I wasn't looking for this. I wasn't aware of this I mean, I think we all sort of have a vague idea that the FBI may be involved in setting people up But then when you follow the story that I did and you see it close-up It's jaw dropping. No, it's really shocking and very very hard to believe the statistics Once you lay them out are quite extraordinary. I mean we're talking about a hundred incidents of the FBI doing this 100 known incidents more actually more Yes, and when I say it's based on a hundred true stories that sort of notional hundreds in the right ballpark It's more likely 300 Well well I have this movie and I've watched it oh and

2:07:27 It's hilarious. I believe it to be a comedy, but they have stuff like... Christina Hendricks is in it and there are some pretty interesting anti-Trumpers like her are in this thing and its very strange But, because it's an anti-government movie. It's a very subversive film They have this for example they got this one guy set up and he's got And its the classic bit that we always bitch about The guys got the phone Here is the phone All you have to do is dial this number And it will blow The guy is such a moron! The guy who was supposed terrorist Yeah I wanted to blow up the bank

2:08:08 And he says, okay just dial this number and they got eyes on the guy and they got the whole thing. Listen to guys going okay what's the number? He says that the numbers right here and he says what does this tell me? It says okay three, I'll get three eight five five you say five yeah five Oh, five. That's an unlucky number! I can't use that number give me a different number!" And the guy goes really gets really... The guy is an idiot and he refuses to dial 5 and they don't know what to do They need a backup plan to get him to punch in something on the phone The whole thing is just worth digging up It's disgusting is what it is It's totally disgusting but yeah they make light of it I guess they could probably

Ron Insana, WTC 7 Controlled Implosion Claim

During a CNBC special on the 18th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, anchor Ron Insana stated that officials "managed to take down" a building in a "controlled implosion." The comment, referring to the World Trade Center complex, contradicts the official narrative that the buildings collapsed solely due to fire and structural damage. This slip of the tongue has drawn attention from researchers questioning the events of that day.

ron insana· cnbc· world trade center· 9/11· controlled demolition

2:08:54 Yeah Anyway, yeah I do have movie does all have to watch that one the second clip. I have here is one of our very observant producers Was watching a CNBC special on 9-11 on the 18th anniversary which is just a couple of weeks ago You know it kind of came and went And in this special CNBC anchor Ron Insana I think he does just mornings or middays. He was talking about the impact it had on Wall Street and how they had to get trading going because when 9-11 took place, everything shut down air travel of course there was damage done to the computer systems and exchanges

2:09:41 And he says something very interesting in this documentary, which one of our producers caught. come down in that way in which it was tilting, it would have wiped out everything from where it stood to Trinity Church to the Exchange to effectively you know the mouth of Hudson. And so there were still fears that if that building had fallen sideways you're going to wipe out a good part of lower Manhattan So they did manage one to take that down and a controlled implosion later on and the exchange was up and running the following Monday. WTC said it won't go away

Priti Patel, UK Points-Based Immigration System

UK Home Secretary Priti Patel announced plans to end the free movement of people and introduce an Australian-style points-based immigration system after Brexit. The policy aims to prioritize high-skilled workers and academics. Meanwhile, House of Commons Speaker John Bercow made a humorous remark regarding his hoarse voice, denying it was caused by the consumption of a "kangaroo's testicle."

priti patel· brexit· immigration· australia· john bercow

2:10:29 Hmm I didn't know they managed to take it down and control demolition. I thought it was fire desks That's rather odd isn't it now? Thought everybody knew that yeah well You know in the future, that'll just be the truth again And then no one will give a shit it's already 18 years no one cares No one cares nobody cares finally some brexit This really, this I picked this up from No Agenda Social or at least the concept of it and went to get the clip. The comic strip blogger who is a remainer even though he doesn't live in the UK as far as i know hates Boris hate's the whole Brexit idea which is fine and we love that! We love having people with different opinions of course but you got really bent out of shape over

2:11:27 speech by the UK Home Secretary, what's her name? Priti... I think her name is Priti Patel. I don't know who the home secretary is! Pritipatel she herself is immigrant or parents were immigrants and here's what she said And as Home Secretary at this defining moment in our country's history I have a particular responsibility when it comes to taking back control It is to end the free movement of people once and for all. Aha! You hear that? We're getting rid of that free movement of people Instead, we will introduce an Australian-style points based immigration system One that works in the best interests of Britain One that attracts and welcomes the brightest and the best one that supports the brilliant scientists The finest academics And leading peoples in their fields

2:12:35 and one that is under the control of the British government. Because let me tell you something, this daughter of immigrants needs no lectures from the North London Metropolitan Liberal Elite." So Australia gets quite a pass on that With their points based system. I've looked into it previously you literally if you're a Rocket scientist, you can get in otherwise You need money or need family or you know orb seek asylum? No that's another way to do it

2:13:24 So I think that's what people are so against this. Now, Comic Street Blogger's gripe is that he says well there's no reciprocity! Must be reciprocity!! I think his problem is that you know this immigration policy says nothing about what happens to British expats living in Europe but that would... That's their problem. That's the EU's problem and I don't see how this woman has anything to do with it But I like this points-based system, and it's not just if you're smart or have a degree. You know having family in the country gets you a point actually I did look up the Australian points based system but there's number of things ages all kinds of stuff that they've got in there no one ever really bitches about Australia's Points based immigration system and then what they call it the hybrid selection system

2:14:16 Which can also be employer-sponsored. There's a number of different ways, but it's not just open It's not just open border no nations though government No at all and all in all Is the UK Parliament back in session now are they? They're back I think there for the moment and then they're gonna be closed down again for a week so John Burkow the water man has Has heard his voice? And it's about time. Right! And he is very hoarse, and here is what he said. Colleagues I am very grateful to the large number of people who have come up to the chair expressing concern about my throat and their generosity in spirit and humanity are much appreciated but just want to take this opportunity to confirm that at the state of my throat which is purely temporary Is not down to consumption of kangaroos testicle.

2:15:17 Can you imagine? Why don't we have that in our Parliament? The problem is his voice is so gravelly that I didn't get the joke because I didn't hear it. Okay, okay, well just tell me what he said. ...to take the opportunity to confirm to the House that the state of my throat which is purely temporary...is not down to the consumption of a kangaroo's testicle. Not down to the consumption of a cankerous testicle? A kangaroo's testicle! Oh, he says a kangaroo's testicle. Yes! I don't get it He said the problem with my throat is not because i ate a kangaroo's balls that's what he's saying Okay How come we don't have any jokes here?

2:16:41 My wife works at a private school that is very swollen amygdalas in the Washington DC area and I don't want her to get into any trouble. Been listening since 2015, started donating small amounts and we'll just get to the point here. A few weeks ago my spoken hot wife and I were on the phone when she was traveling to Canada Navy with our father or cousin she says, I've been listening to Noah Jenner and I think you need to donate so that you can be de-dooshed Over time I've been listening, I've been hitting her in the mouth gently and she didn't seem too interested. Well finally it took. I was surprised by the fact that she was listening and felt it was important enough to donate. I let her know that I had been donating a small amount all along! She's a regular listener now and we often discuss things on this show. I have not really tracked how much I have donated over the years and my wife said this when she said this so I went back through the bank accounts and PayPal accounts and have surpassed the $1,000 hurdle

2:17:34 Nice. He's got the accounting attached and so here is where the pen comes in because I did not send this to Eric. Now, I'm ready? I would respectfully request that 1,000 be credited to my wife for her damehood. Okay! So excited that she not only sees a listener but sees the value in what you two do both on Sundays of the week or Thursdays My long time career came back to an end back in 2012 And since then I've been struggling to figure out what I want to be when I grow up It's been a long, hard haul and a few times I think maybe onto something with the business that I'm buying into starting December 1st. My wife has not been the only reason I've been able to keep our head above water financially but her patience and support has been invaluable through this trying time." Until she requested change now he says it'll be forever grateful for hers.

CHAPTER 30 / 35 Discussion

Tucker Carlson, Red Meat Native Advertisement

A segment on Tucker Carlson Tonight featuring a doctor discussing the health benefits of red meat is analyzed as a potential native advertisement for the cattle industry. The discussion mirrors industry talking points about protein and vitamins while dismissing previous studies linking meat to heart disease. The hosts suggest this is a counter-narrative to the anti-meat agenda promoted by environmental groups.

tucker carlson· fox news· red meat· native advertising· beef industry

2:33:08 You tell me. We talked about not only is the climate and the earth is dying, and we have to stop CO2 but also we can't eat meat! We have to eat grass and bugs and anything but meat...can't eat meat. Bugs are good. In this particular instance, I'm fairly convinced that the meat industry is fighting back. As they should it's their prerogative. They should of course they should! And this impossible burger and all...and by the way thank you yes i was wrong i thought Horowitz was all in on it i stand corrected sorry. Yeah he was so adamant about it. He was butthurt. He was butthurt. I'm sorry. Hey I hate that thing what is he talking about? Forget about it! You're talking to me

2:33:56 And so we always look at what comes out and what's being promoted. And whenever this douchebag doctor comes on Tucker Carlson show, immediately I know that this is going to be a native ad because that guy is an idiot! I don't even know if he's a real doctor—he plays one on TV but he's just a douche. He kind of lets it slip. Again, it's a two-minute segment I believe this to be purchased by, what is it? The Cattleman's Association. What is it typically the meat... I don't know who does the meat. I should know but that's something that I don't know.

2:34:36 Association I think that's what it is so they need to get red meat and meet back on on people's diet On the radar and get people to eat it again. So for years we've heard that red meat is gonna kill you And now apparently some survey some research says no It's not true, so listen to the Fox News Tucker Carlson show and dr douchebag literally shill for the meat industry. What do you make of this? Is this overturn your views on meat should we feel better about having a steak now it changed my views and it made me wonder about all the Democrat attack one here one piece of research, this doctor immediately changed my view change it right overnight

2:35:22 What do you make of this? Does this overturn your views on meat, should we feel better about having a steak now. It changed my views and it made me wonder about all the Democrat attack late Democratic attack lately on our gaseous cattle friends right that way that way actually rely on That is an anti-agenda 21 talking point right there and even says cattle friends yeah you could see their cows Gaseous cow I think it was pretty funny I don't know why he hated the guy so much For meat, for red meat. And what this study did and by the way it looked at millions of participants in several studies that was a very strong analysis of multiple studies and it concluded that red meat itself mainly unprocessed red meat does not correlate with life-threatening heart disease or cancer except in a very weak tie now what does this mean to me? This means to me that I have to relook at red meat and say wait a minute

2:36:16 It's a good source of protein. For some people, their only source of protein it's a source of B vitamins. These are the talking points! This is literally the ad talking points you could hear Leo Laporte do this about some product. It's the same thing... Well, it's a good source of protein. Of iron It's got a lot of healthy ingredients in it, Zink. So I've gotta wonder if we aren't throwing the baby out with the bathwater? I'm thinking you know it's more of a lifestyle thing maybe we should be eating our steak with a salad or Brussels sprouts The problem is Tucker that too many people eat their steak with french fries.

2:37:07 Maybe it's not red meat that's the problem. But it never made sense and I agree completely, I mean obviously potatoes and donuts will get you... no one kind of disputes that. I agree Tucker, It's actually probably the processed meat we need to worry about. Ah there is! The bacon, the sausage where you actually add chemicals like nightshade. Of course, we don't want to promote the pork industry. But you're catching it dude let's not promote pork no no no We hate those guys Let's promote the meat guys. I want everyone out there to know how poor this research is done that made those connections They say to you what did you eat yesterday? Well You may not actually tell what you actually ate so they canvas thousands and millions of people What'd ya eat

2:37:48 And then they observe your response. Now here comes the payoff! We don't really do what we need to do, give somebody a great hamburger and salad, somebody else a great hamburger and french fries... You might find out it's the french fries that are the problem So shame on you out there that are throwing our all of our great hamburgers Tucker and I are going to go have steak after this. Not every day! Moderation, I'm a physician here so i don't want everybody out there to have three steaks a day. But most Americans tend to have four or five servings a week and what the studies are showing is that's not as egregious as people have been saying So it's not that I disagree with what he's saying but this is paid for! I'm sorry everything in there was paid for and then Tucker Carlson like whoa geez y'all are just so illogical blah blah blah Please

CHAPTER 31 / 35 Discussion

Art19 Podcast Advertising, Targeted Ad Technology

Executives from Art19 discussed new technology that allows for highly targeted, listener-specific advertisements within podcasts. Unlike traditional host-read ads, this system uses deterministic data to identify specific demographics, such as millennial mothers with degrees, and insert relevant commercials. The hosts express strong opposition to this shift toward surveillance-based advertising in the podcasting medium.

art19· podcasting· advertising· targeting· data privacy

2:38:39 It's just one team against the other and they're getting paid for it. He doesn't have any other ads, he has to do something Yeah well you would do the same thing if you were in his shoes Well here is your opportunity Hi I'm Lex Friedman with Art19 And we are presenting here today to talk about our two key ad products in podcasting space So Art19 started life as strictly enterprise hosting for podcasts And earlier this year, my colleague Cori Colessa and I joined to add a commercial there. And what we talked about today was the ability to run targeted ads within podcasts where historically when people bought podcast ads you were buying on show by show basis but now at Art19 we've added technology where we can sell on listener-by-listener basis too so if an advertiser comes to us and says I want to reach millennial moms with bachelor's degrees We can target those moms across a couple hundred different shows based on deterministic data we're using to identify them

2:39:29 So we can match them and insert an ad into the episodes they're downloading regardless of what show it is. Oh crap! The state of the industry ladies and gentlemen, We could target right now to complete know exactly with a woman millennial woman with economics degree we can get him all we can spap that blah blah blah. Oh crap! Thinking about here is how can we help digital buyers who love what they're doing when they're buying paid social? I love buying paid social John don't you love when you buy paid social Hey paid social they are buying paid search. How can we get them that kind of digital approach to Targeting the consumers they want but do it in audio There's some brands that just haven't been able to get comfortable with host red ads and podcasts because they want to make sure they control their voice themselves there's some brains that love post right ads and within the two or complimentary the Complimentary the host for dads hosted as hosted

2:40:18 But where some publishers, it doesn't make sense for them to have host reads either because the host doesn't want to or it's a newsier show where they wanna keep that wall. For some shi- Yeah so to answer your question no I'd rather die No, I'd rather die. I'm saying if you were Tucker Carlson and you were on Fox You'd be making a lot more money even though your starving to death because they can't get any advertisers so they gotta go with natives but You're not do you know what the Millennials said the other day to somebody about me? Are you ready for it? We need a drumroll

2:40:59 What does your stepdad do? He has a fairly successful podcast. Fairly successful podcast... That was pretty standard, I think that was a good answer! Of all the things you can say. She could have said he is the co-host of the greatest podcast in the universe, is what she should have said! But that's not what she said... Yeah, he has a fairly successful podcast. What does that even mean? I like a button. Ask me about my fairly successful podcasts. Okay Hillary we're done with you. I do have three clips left. Alright

South Haven Mississippi, Undocumented Immigrant Rights Case

The city of South Haven, Mississippi, is arguing in court that an undocumented immigrant shot dead by police in his own home had no constitutional rights. Ismael Lopez was killed when officers went to the wrong house while serving a warrant. The city's legal defense claims that because Lopez was not a U.S. citizen, he was not entitled to the protections of the Fourth or Fourteenth Amendments.

mississippi· civil rights· undocumented immigrant· police shooting· lawsuit

2:41:46 All right. I got two of them related and the other one just kind of an EU thing, but first I want to play this. This is news that you never heard and this is a funny story Democracy Now! Of course picks this sort of thing up just as one thing they do well is grab stories like this and then they make a little commentary in their own way. It says Mrs. Sui says you can shoot anyone A city in Mississippi is claiming a man who was shot dead inside his own home by a police officer two years ago has no constitutional rights because he was an undocumented immigrant, not a U.S. citizen. An attorney for the city of South Haven, Mississippi made this argument in a recent court filing after the family of Ismael Lopez filed a civil lawsuit.

2:42:32 Lopez was shot dead inside his own home when police shot through his front door. The police were attempting to serve a search warrant to one of Lopez's neighbors, but went to the wrong house. The city's attorney wrote, quote, "'Ismael Lopez may have been a person on American soil,' but he was not one of the We the People of the United States entitled to the civil rights invoked in this lawsuit," unquote." A lawyer for the Lopez family described the city's position as, quote, the most insane thing I've ever heard. Unquote The attorney said the city is essentially arguing that because Lopez is an undocumented immigrant it's okay for the city of South Haven to kill him Wow yeah You think the network should be on that one? Damn yes

New York Times, Trump Border Wall Allegations

The New York Times reported that President Donald Trump privately suggested extreme measures for the southern border, including a water-filled trench with alligators and snakes. The report also claimed he proposed shooting migrants in the legs to slow them down. Trump denied the allegations, calling them a fabrication, while observers noted the identical wording used across multiple media outlets to describe the "spikes that pierce human flesh."

new york times· donald trump· border wall· immigration· media coordination

2:43:21 That's a very good story. Instead, no no you can't have good stories like this on the networks because of where things go You want to someday has said it's gotta be about Trump so and especially trumped up bull crap I mean This is my favorite even though i can imagine these meetings and somebody suggesting things like this but this is trump wants to shoot migrants The New York Times is reporting President Trump privately pushed for shooting migrants and for creating a, quote, water-filled trench stocked with snakes or alligators along the U.S.-Mexico border. The New York Times also details how Trump has privately proposed other radical measures to curtail immigration including closing the entire U.S.-Mexico border and building an electrified border wall topped with spikes to pierce human flesh.

2:44:11 The Times reveals Trump has repeatedly raised the idea of shooting migrants during staff meetings. The paper reports, quote, after publicly suggesting that soldiers shoot migrants if they threw rocks, the president backed off when his staff told him that was illegal But later in a meeting, aides were called. He suggested they shoot migrants in the legs to slow them down That's not allowed either, they told him. The Times article is based on a new book Border Wars Inside Trumps Assault On Immigration by Time reporters Michael Scheer and Julie Hirschfeld Davis Yeah the president responded to this? Let me see...here it is

2:44:53 Are you talking to me? Yeah, it was just a follow up of what I just asked you sir. Listen, listen! You ready?! We have the president of Finland ask him a question... I have one for him but i wanted to follow-up on the one that I asked you which is... Did you hear me!? Yes sir! Ask him a question! I'm sorry this is wrong one This isn't what I meant to play Well its good now It was a lie But he did deny other accusations in the report Including an account not confirmed by NBC News, the president had also called for fortifying the border with a quote water-filled trench stocked with snakes or alligators. He wanted the wall electrified with spikes on top that could pierce human flesh They said I want to moat with alligator snakes, electrified fences so people get electrocuted if they so much as touch the fence and spikes on top

2:45:36 Never said it, never thought of it. The president made those alleged comments when migrant border crossings were over a hundred thousand a month now they're down to 64,000 Lester Kristen Walker Thank you So I'd like to weigh both reports, both Amy Goodman and NBC. Both said the same wordage, those exact same wordage which makes me think that somebody's coordinating this. Well it's coming from a book and it's being reported as news that's why! But why would you use the same exact words? The following ones I'm talking about... Spikes that pierce human flesh

France 24, Berlin Time Fact Check

A France 24 "Fact or Fake" segment addressed claims that the European Union is forcing the continent onto "Berlin Time." The report clarified that while the EU voted to end seasonal clock changes, individual member states will choose their own permanent time zones. The hosts interpret the segment as an attempt to soothe public distrust of German influence within the European Commission.

france 24· berlin time· european union· daylight saving· brexit

2:46:20 Now what spikes don't pierce human flesh? Why does it have to be spikes? What is it to say that pierce human flesh and they didn't it's not like sharp spikes You said we can say sharp spikes. You can say something, but they both use the exact same wordage Spikes that Pierce Human flesh if I was in charge of M5m I'd say spikes that when you trip you could gouge your eye and You've got to make it a little more personal. Yeah, it's gotta be gory. So my last clip before I guess we're gonna be done yeah We have so I have three of these actually I may push up push two of them off But there's a new series on France 24 that uses little bits and this on their website And I think they do it on the TV, but haven't seen it yet called fake our factor fake

2:47:21 And they find some issues I guess the Europeans are moaning and groaning about, and then they do a fact or fake. some issue that is resolved in a very awkward way, no it turns out to be fake. Everything's fake and it's like for just a couple of these but they always indicate that the underlying factor fake questioning that's going on by the public to me shows a deep mistrust of the EU government itself because of the nature And France 24 is trying to assuage the public so they make them feel better. And this is the one, I'll play this one... Hold on let me just understand So they have a segment called Fact or Fake but the entire idea is to show you that what you think is wrong because the EU was actually very good They're not trying to kill you with weird stuff Is that the idea? Yeah

2:48:17 And I've been noticing a lot of crazy, this is the best example of where they're oh no that's not the way it works. You get to do what you want. Oh the EU wants...you are gonna be good for...it just seems ominous. The whole thing seems like Big Brother but let's go with this one. I got other ones we'll play next time. Fact or fake? Berlin time. Well this time we're asking is the EU trying to put the entire continent on quote, Berlin time That's a colourful claim from British tabloid The Daily Express on March 26th of this year Now this article claims that members of the European Parliament have voted to quote advance plans to shift to Berlin Time in 2021 So what's the truth? Well the root of the article is correct

2:49:03 MEPs did vote on March 26 in favour of ending the seasonal clock-changing tradition otherwise known as daylight saving, as of March 2021. Now they were supporting a proposal made by the European Commission which itself stemmed from a public consultation 4.6 million Europeans responded to a survey of which 84% were in favor of the change So it is true that time is being tinkered with but what about the details? What is Berlin Time? Well, The Daily Express does not explain in its article where the term Berlin Time has come from Indeed, Berlin shares its own Central European time with 30 other European states and two in North Africa that use CET all year round. So the article may as well have called it Paris Time, Sarajevo Time or even perhaps Tunis Time In any case no specific time zone is being imposed under the proposal It will be up to each member state to decide which time arrangement they wish to keep their current summer or wintertime for their particular zone

2:50:04 Well, a couple of things about this. One, of course is all Tempest in a teapot nothing's going on when you get to choose your own we're not really pushing people with the idea She misses that where I maybe it wasn't miss. Maybe she knows it but the idea of using the term Berlin time as opposed to Tunis time and all these other Paris time right is a note of hey This is the jerk you were talking about the German Empire here. That's right. They want everyone to be on Berlin end time. And that's kind of just the point of that is missed completely, it probably was missed in the article. It's also kind of a Brexit thing at the same time you know so oh would Greenwich meantime?
