Boris Johnson and Jean-Claude Juncker Announce Brexit Deal

Boris Johnson and Jean-Claude Juncker announced a new Brexit deal intended to protect the peace process on the island of Ireland. The agreement aims to ensure no hard border exists while protecting the single market. Both the UK Parliament and the European Parliament must still vote on the proposal before the October 31st deadline.

00:00 Oh, new phone! Let's unbox it. We have a deal! And broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33, the frontier of Austin Tejas, capital of the drone star state. In The Morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from Northern Silicon Valley where he's proven himself to be a lizard by telling people to eat bugs that's the Pope i'm John C DeVore It's Crackpot & Buzzkill in The Mornin' Well now we have two things to start with

00:42 Well actually we have a whole slew of things to start with. I have a list Cummins died, yes that's the pope wants us to eat bugs Felicity Hoffman is his sentence going to be cut? And... We have a deal! By the way Jordan Peterson movie came out too much controversy and uh the guy who wrote the book about Sandy Hook being a hoax got sued and lost And so I go to CNN to check these stories out and of course what do i get there? Giuliani and Trump. We have a deal man! We have a deal, it was announced. I saw the same announcement apparently. Yeah well let's listen to it for the

01:25 benefit of everybody. He provides certainty where Brexit creates uncertainty. I love how Juncker is now also kind of doing this Anglicism, this Brexit... Is it Juncker? Yeah it's Junker! Brexit... Well just the one I had was the other guy, the negotiator No no no, this is Boris and Juncker together! He protects the rights of our citizens

02:02 and it protects peace and stability on the island of Ireland. There will be no border on the island of Ireland, and a single market will be protected. The deal is not about us! The deal is about people and peace and I look forward to continue my conversations with Boris because we'll start the negotiations on the future relations immediately after the deal will have been approved. We'll start our debates on 1st of November without interruption, and of course it is for both our parliaments

02:45 to have the final say. It's not only Westminster having to approve the deal. The deal being in fact that we'd be it's also up to the European Parliament to do the same so thank you Boris for I have to say excellent relations we had throughout the last... So as it turns out after all, it was just about the backstop deal apparently or I think is a heard Junkers say the island of Ireland? Okay here is Boris Johnson's little statement. Thank you Jean-Claude and can I pay a particular tribute to you, Jean-Claude and also of course to Michel Barnier and all your team, Michel and the negotiating team

03:33 in the Commission and I do think that this deal represents a very good deal both for the EU and for the UK, it's a reasonable fair outcome and reflects large amount of work that has been undertaken by both sides. I agree very much, Jean-Claude, with what you said about protecting the peace process in the island of Ireland and in Northern Ireland. And of course for us in the UK it means that we can deliver a real Brexit that achieves our objectives and it means that the UK leaves whole and entire on October 31st

04:20 Northern Ireland and every other part of the UK can take part, not just in free trade deals offering our tariffs exporting our goods around the world but it also means that we can take together as a single United Kingdom decisions about our future about our laws borders are money and how we want to run at the UK. Well, well, well. So they still all have to vote on it the UK Parliament and the EU Parliament and we shall see if that actually happens. What was kind of funny this was the end of the press briefing

05:01 And so Boris ended it, but apparently King Jean-Claude still had something to say. Listen to this elitist douchebag! "...and we look forward to working with you in building that partnership in the weeks and months to come." Thank you all very much. Hey hey hey... HEY! HEY! This is how he addresses the press and they call Trump a moron. Thank you all very much. I have to say that i'm happy about the deal but i'm sad about Brexit, have a good time

05:49 Yeah, brother has to get the last word. Well I listened...Bernie is the one that I... Yeah he's the EU negotiator That I listened to describe what it was and it seems acceptable except for the fine print that they don't discuss who knows what else is in there We have no idea what's in there, of course not. And it doesn't matter because UK Parliament I'm sure will just delay it. Oh no this is no good already everyone's... oh this worse than May's deal! Yeah, that's that's probably right there. It's probably it's probably true worse than Mays deal exactly what you're gonna hear Somehow its worse what I always find so interesting in this age of you know democracy and You know how everything has to be the rule of law and the people the people decide And and the majority of people voted for Clinton the people the people the people

Queen Elizabeth II Opens Parliament and Outlines Government Priorities

Queen Elizabeth II delivered a speech to the House of Commons outlining the government's legislative agenda, including a priority to secure the United Kingdom's departure from the EU. The speech detailed new regimes for fisheries, agriculture, and trade. A proposed immigration bill intends to end free movement while establishing a global system.

queen elizabeth ii· house of commons· fisheries· agriculture· immigration bill· brexit

06:50 But when it comes to the United Kingdom, this anachronism of the royal family just baffles me every time that people look at that with a straight face and say oh yeah this is just ceremonial doesn't really mean much. There was the Queen earlier this week opening up Parliament with her 50 million dollar crown light because she can't wear the full crown anymore because her head and neck are snap Yeah, so they carry the big crown around on a red velvet pillow and she's sitting on her throne addressing Parliament. My Lords and members of the House of Commons my government's priority I love it! MY government's priority not yours you sheeple has always been to secure the United Kingdoms departure from the European Union on 31st October

07:45 My government intends to work towards a new partnership with the European Union based on free trade and friendly cooperation. My ministers will work to implement new regimes for fisheries, agriculture and trade seizing the opportunities that arise from leaving the European Union An immigration bill ending free movement will lay the foundation for a fair, modern and global immigration system. My government remains committed to ensuring that resident European citizens who have built their lives in and contributed so much to the United Kingdom have the right to remain. The bill will include measures that reinforce this commitment

08:37 My Lords and members of the House of Commons other measures will be laid before you I pray that the blessing of Almighty God may rest upon your counsels. Yes my government my government no one ever bats an eye at that anymore My government, my lords Okay, all right fine. That's good back this fact yes is People want to ignore it, but there it is. So how long or maybe it's already started? How long until the US press starts bitching at Trump about not immediately saying something nice and fawning about What's his name Elijah Cummings I think he's already said something nice and funny no really yeah well It won't be enough oh no of course Whatever it is it won't be enough

CHAPTER 03 / 50 Discussion

Death of Representative Elijah Cummings and CNN Impeachment Focus

The death of Representative Elijah Cummings is expected to shift media focus toward his civil rights legacy and his adversarial relationship with Donald Trump. Project Veritas released undercover footage allegedly showing CNN President Jeff Zucker instructing staff to maintain a constant focus on impeachment. Critics argue the network is prioritizing the impeachment narrative over other news.

elijah cummings· donald trump· cnn· jeff zucker· project veritas· impeachment

09:30 He was horrible. He sent him to the grave! I'm waiting for someone to say that. Yeah, oh absolutely. Trump gave him so much stress and sent him to the grave. Well maybe they'll come up with a Trump hit list like they did to Clinton's. So it's going to be interesting because now Elijah Cummings is really throwing a wrench into the works you cannot ignore this man You cannot not ignore his role in in the civil rights movement. It can't be ignored, so they'll have to break out packages do all kinds of stuff and that takes away from Trump which is a problem or as CNN would say it takes away from impeachment. Well from what I can tell you're not going to breakaway

10:24 Cummings has just got, he died at the wrong time if he wants to get some attention. No well it's gonna well you'll see it's gonna be hard for them because he was also staunchly and maybe they could just do packages of him yelling at Trump that would be useful That could be I've watched the I think it was two or three ones come out these Project Veritas videos where they Go undercover at CNN and surprise surprise CNN is biased. No What yeah, I mean holy moly But what was nice about it is You know so we have audio although completely unusable always my complaint about project Veritas the audio was so Unusable if you don't have the subtitles on the screen you really don't know what's being said

11:15 So we heard Jeff Zucker in the Monday meeting saying, you know it's all about impeachment keep it on impeachment. We're gonna go with impeachment I don't care what the story is impeachment But they do follow orders there at CNN. Yeah, now they're pushing man. They really want to ram it into everybody's head that Trump is above the law. At least he feels he's above the law cannot be above the law has sacrificed our national security is killing the Kurds we must impeach him! There's actually no evidence that even one Kurd has died by the way. Oh no? Well hello

CHAPTER 04 / 50 Discussion

Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer Walk Out of White House Meeting

Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer walked out of a White House meeting regarding the U.S. withdrawal from Syria, citing a "meltdown" by President Trump. Democratic leaders expressed concern over the lack of a plan to contain ISIS following the withdrawal. Trump reportedly insulted Pelosi during the exchange, calling her a "third-rate politician."

nancy pelosi· chuck schumer· donald trump· syria· isis· steny hoyer

12:19 Yeah, I have a lot on Syria. We don't have to get into it now but... Actually maybe we should do this so yesterday there was this flurry of activity all of a sudden and everything starts lighting up because apparently Nancy Pelosi was so insulted she walked out of the meeting with Trump horrible man And she said he melted down and he says she melted down. Well let's listen to the... What a dabba-goo that has gotta be! So right after this event, right in front of the White House Nancy Pelosi Chuck Schumer and Steny Hoyer all come out and call each other leader all the time This is very interesting

13:00 I will talk to Leader Schumer, Leader Pelosi, Leader Hoyer. You're chosen representatives you're not leaders! A little tired of this leader talk and everyone's talking about Republicans and their dear leader Trump the only people using the word leader are Democrats consistently in Syria the calls upon the president to urge the Turks exercise restraint for us to have humanitarian assistance to some of the Kurds children are being killed there and very very some of the Kurds children are being killed there John do you not have a report of the Kurdish children being slaughtered massacred killed

13:45 Kurds children are being killed there and very, very importantly and most importantly it asks for a clear plan on how we're going to fight ISIS. Now as for some context the only reason Pelosi and Schumer were meeting with the president was to say hey! We just had a very important vote in Congress in the House of Representatives and it's okay, it's not a bill or anything. It is a resolution which is kind of an official document saying here's what we think as if we hadn't heard it on every news cable news channel and what they think is that it's a very bad idea that Trump had pulled out the troops or he was pulling them out, the no boots-on-the ground troops we've had there apparently because it's going to kill the Kurds and at the very last sentence indeed was well we'd like to know what the plan is so they voted on that. I'm glad you took the time to do that

14:45 I think that vote, the size of the vote more than two to one of the Republicans voted to oppose what the president did probably got to the president because he was shaken up by it. And that's why we couldn't continue in the meeting because people just not relating to the reality of it Again, we are proud of our men and women in uniform. Those who have been in Syria have conducted themselves in a way that makes us all very proud and I conveyed that to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs We had some questions about ISIS and I'm going to defer to distinguished leader from New York, well the Senate in New York who focused on ISIS in the meeting. Herr Schumacher, der Leader! He will talk to us about that. Thank you Speaker. Thank You Leader Hoyer. I told the president that being from New York as he was we're particularly aware of

15:46 of the problems, the terrorism that an organization like ISIS can create. See now this is the next push in the impeachment crescendo is to now say that the president is in effect bringing ISIS back to America and the fact that someone know less than General Mattis has said that Isis has been enhanced that the danger of ISIS is so much greater worries all of us. I asked the president what his plan was to contain ISIS. He didn't really have one, he said the Turks and the Syrians will guard the ISIS prisoners. I said is there any intelligence evidence that the Turks and the Syrians will have the same interests that the Kurds or we did in guarding ISIS? And the Secretary of Defense was... thank God he was honest, he said we don't have that evidence

16:47 And so I said, then how can we think that this is a plan when there are Syrians and Turks who are not our friends? Who ISIS If they escape does them very little harm, how can we? Let this happen. They didn't have any good answer This is appalling the president had no plan No real plan for containing Isis other than relying on the Syrians and the Turks then why did we spend a decade billions of dollars and lost lives in trying to curtail Isis if on a phone call on a whim

17:23 The president is going to undo all of that and turn this over to the Turks and the Syrians. I'll tell you why we spent 10 years doing that because We were told that Assad, the horrible dictator was killing his own people gassing women and children now all of a sudden It's about ISIS and they might come to America? Yes! Of course our only mission there was to train the YPG, PKK Whatever you want to call them today and these ISIS prisoners They have European passports

Syrian Blogger Claims Kurdish Militias Are Ethnically Cleansing Minorities

A Syrian blogger claims that Kurdish militias have been ethnically cleansing Assyrian Christians and other minorities to establish a majority in controlled areas. The report suggests that local Christian populations prefer the Syrian army over Kurdish control for protection. Additionally, documents suggest General Mazlum Kobani was open to negotiations with Turkey as early as April.

syria· kurds· assyrian christians· mazlum kobani· turkey· ypg

18:22 So where are they gonna go if they escape? They're going to go to Europe. I don't think they'll be going to the United States. There's one or two Americans in there and that's what we had that clip of one of our CBS correspondents having a discussion with the American And he felt he was fine going back to the US. He wasn't gonna be a terrorist in the US. Here's, there's this blogger and I don't know how this is gonna sound but she's one of those bloggers who... She's been around. She's one of those bloggers who looks for a bucket to throw her mic into and then figures that's good sound

18:59 This is a Syrian girl and she has some interesting points to make about it. She could be just a spook, but she has some points... But it's good to listen to her once more here are some of her points about the Kurds You were lied into believing that the Kurds were fighting for a national liberation The truth is that the reason Kurds don't have a country Is because they were nomadic until World War I They never settled in one place and built cities The land that they moved into was already inhabited by some of the oldest civilizations in the world. Anatolians, Assyrians, Armenians and Assyrians They wanted to build a state at the expense of these indigenous people Yet another lie you are being told is that Syrian Christians want the US to stay To help them stay safe from Turkey No! The Assyrian Christians are saying they want the U.S out and the Syrian army in

19:57 The truth is, the Assyrian Christians were already being ethnically cleansed by the Kurdish militias alongside other minorities. They've been shutting down their schools forcibly disarming their militias. Assyrian Christian fighters have been assassinated because Kurds are not a majority in areas that they want to control. They wanted to push out other minorities in order to become a majority What is right, is that every part of Syria belongs to every Syrian no matter their ethnicity or religion. The Assyrian Christians say that the Syrian army are the only people they can trust to ensure this." You know... The White House released this video... a video.. This letter he sent to Erdogan and in it he says by the way you know what's the guy's name?

20:55 the general Mazlum, well it's actually General Mazlum Kobani Adi and in April Mazlum was already saying hey you know we can do this you know it's alright were good were gonna find our own plan here with Turkey. In April So this has been going on for a while and these come it's certainly at least international people have been aware that these that this idea has been out there for a while. I mean, I missed it and went after the president's note said look at the general agrees with you guys working something out now went back and looked is like this has been going on for awhile of course We don't get much of that because news

ABC News Airs Fake Syria Bombing Footage from Kentucky

ABC News faced criticism for airing footage of a night-time gun range demonstration in Kentucky while claiming it depicted a Turkish attack on Syrian civilians. President Trump called out the network for the deceptive reporting during a press conference. The footage was actually filmed at the Knob Creek Gun Range during a "Machine Gun Shoot" event.

abc news· syria· kentucky· knob creek· tracer fire· fake news

21:41 No, when they have to discuss it they gin it up with like that Kentucky film which was just embarrassing. In fact Trump bitched about it directly. Wait a minute what? Kentucky film? What Kentucky film? The Kentucky gunsh... Oh, the ABC fake phone video. And by the way everyone who's seen this says geez we got to go to this event. Tracer fire at night! It's unbelievable it's quite exciting but here's Trump calling out ABC on Syria. Hold on okay oops

22:21 Even after all you have seen, the prisoners freed and all the humanitarian disaster. You don't have any regret for giving Erdogan the green light to invade? I didn't give him a green light Well did you tell him that he defied it? That's just as you just...you know when you make a statement like that is so deceptive Just the opposite of a green light First we had virtually no soldiers there they were mostly gone Just a tiny little group And uh..they would've been in harms way We'd have a massive army on the other side of the border But more importantly i didn't give them a green light and if anybody saw the letter which can be released very easily if you'd like. I could certainly release it, but I wrote a letter right after that conversation, very powerful letter. It was never given a green light they've been wanting to do that for years and frankly they've been fighting for many many years

23:04 And when you ask a question like that, it's very deceptive John. It's almost as deceptive as you showing all of the bombings taking place in Syria and it turned out that the bombing that you showed on television took place in Kentucky So, you know and I'm not even sure that ABC apologized for that but certainly it was a terrible thing I'm looking at this I'd say well That's pretty bad and it was in Kentucky. It wasn't in Syria so I don't know what you're gonna do about that But I think ABC owes an apology And blow me. You know, I couldn't find an apology either. There was a tweet that you know about a mistake it has been corrected but there wasn't really an apology for clearly very poor reporting. Let's go back to... It was deceptive! It was beyond poor reporting and go back to the post

CHAPTER 07 / 50 Discussion

Nancy Pelosi Orange Bullet Bracelet Conspiracy Theory

A conspiracy theory suggests Nancy Pelosi used an orange bracelet made of bullets as a signal against President Trump. The jewelry was reportedly a gift from Representative Frederica Wilson to represent gun violence awareness. Some observers interpreted the choice of orange as a coded reference to the "Orange Man Bad" meme.

nancy pelosi· frederica wilson· orange· gun violence· conspiracy theory· code

23:54 Meltdown meeting here is to wind this up Pelosi. I'm sorry leader Pelosi. I would also say one other thing He was wait, maybe it's oh no This is Schumer saying how incredibly rude the president was was just horrible. I would also say one other thing He was insulting, particularly to the speaker. She kept her cool completely but he called her a third-rate politician? He said that The there are communists involved and you guys might like that. I mean this was not a dialogue It was sort of a diatribe a nasty diatribe not focused on the facts particularly the fact of how to curtail Isis a terrorist organization That aims to hurt the United States in our homeland Yes, they're coming they're coming land under every bush and it's so interesting

24:53 That and I believe he said it. I'm sure he said you're a third-rate politician Nancy And maybe you'd love those Isis guys some of them are communists, I mean I don't know if it quite weighs up against your rapist the criminal You put the country in harm's way? You're a traitor your treasonous It's almost the same thing not quite They should look in the mirror these folk But there's a little bit of conspiracy theory out there, if you don't mind just for one second. Just pop on the glasses! Did you get your cute glasses on? No I didn't...I can't find them Well tell me when you're ready and then we'll put them on Hold on a second they're probably under this pile of paper Mine are already on Pretty colors Wait what is this? Is this them? No no that's Hillary Penn Oh i got em here they are Alright perfect

25:51 There is a conspiracy theory that Nancy Pelosi sent out the bat signal for harm to come to the 45th President of the United States. And she did this with some very clear signaling during one of her many appearances yesterday regarding the bracelets. It was all over the country, but when I was in Florida. I received this from Frederica Wilson my colleague it's a bracelets are made with bullets in the color orange which is the color of gun violence protection this told the president we're not going away a bracelet made of bullets in the color orange

26:50 Okay, that's code. Oh orange hello. Oh Orange man bad yes exactly orange man bad a bracelet made of bullets You can that's a good conspiracy theory out of the blue yeah well it came from so you know Q is gone I guess after 8chan was taken down and I don't know there's lots of cues popping up but i like that, I thought this one was pretty good. There you go Nance and since when did orange who chose orange as the color of gun violence? Who makes these colored decisions? It has to be code. Yeah never heard this. Has to be code yeah never heard this. That's interesting. I have two more clips about Syria and Turkey The first is

CHAPTER 08 / 50 Discussion

Russia Positions as Force for Stability in Syria

Stephen Cook of the Council on Foreign Relations noted that Russia has positioned itself as a stabilizing force in Syria by moving between Turkish and Syrian regime forces. Russian soldiers have been documented taking selfies at abandoned U.S. bases. Analysts suggest Vladimir Putin is successfully playing regional actors against each other to increase Russian influence.

russia· erdogan· syria· council on foreign relations· stephen cook· vladimir putin

27:42 Stephen Cook, he's from the Council on Foreign Relations. Short clip but I think it is kind of interesting. And when President Erdogan sees Russian soldiers doing selfies in a previous US base what does he make of that? Well, it's clear that the Russians have now positioned themselves as a force for stability of all things in the region. The Russians want to put themselves in between Turkish forces and Syrian regime forces to ensure that there is no fight there. The Russians are going to play every end of the stick here to their advantage.

28:19 Erdogan has no Washington to go back to for leverage with the Russians. The Russians can play him like a fiddle. Stephen Cook, thank you so much for being with us. Sounds like the plan is working! Of course the Russians are going to come in I have not heard anything on MSNBC CNN or Fox About the Russians and their deepwater port in Syria, you know This is this is part of my forever as part of why all of this started it been a long-term Ally with each other. Yes. What's new? Nothing's new but they don't they don't talk about these things I Get the sense that whoever's orchestrating all the talking points has get Ben

29:01 They haven't gotten their act together. It's been high! Hey man, let's put some more talking points... I don't get it! Hey man Bob Menendez is gonna be on with Pooper Let's give him some talking points You yourself tweeted that listening to the president made you feel deeply concerned for the country Can you talk about what happened in the meeting? What you saw? Oh the meeting Well from the moment the president came in uh..I would describe him as belligerent He smacked down a series of files on the table and said, well you all asked for this meeting. I reluctantly gave it to you and Speaker Pelosi said well with all due respect Mr President we didn't ask for meeting with you We asked for a briefing from the Secretaries of Defense State and Intelligence To understand the consequences of the actions you took And then he said well then let's end the meeting

29:49 And she said, well while I'm here as the speaker. I have an obligation to tell you that the house just voted 350 some odd To I forget exactly what the amount was but it was an overwhelming bipartisan vote to disapprove the actions that you took in Syria And then he got that devolved into, it's nothing but a hit job on the Republicans. And she said well many Republicans joined us and then he called Speaker Pelosi a third-rate politician He said that the Kurds were nothing but communists and all of us Democrats who are seated there must be happy with that suggesting we all subscribe to that view of being communist

30:28 And then, you know it just was belligerent and something I have never seen in 27 years here in Congress. And serving under four different presidents...I've never seen a moment like this. That's not how these meetings usually go? No! So, there's no reporting. This is silly. This is stupid. It's a big charade

31:10 And Nancy stormed out because he called her a third-rate politician. And it's all just the part of, as I said earlier, the crescendo – the culmination to get public support for Orange Man bad impeachment good And it, they'll probably get there. If they keep pushing in December I think that they'll be able to... They're painting themselves into a corner. I don't know why they are taking so long Because she doesn't have the votes Of course a ton of Republicans who were on... To say they have the votes? It looks like they got the votes! Nooo

CHAPTER 09 / 50 Discussion

House Impeachment Inquiry Subpoena Power Dispute

Debate continues regarding the legality of subpoenas issued by the House of Representatives without a formal impeachment vote. Critics argue that until a full vote is taken, the subpoenas are not legally enforceable and represent a "true conspiracy" against the administration. The death of Elijah Cummings is noted as a potential disruption to the committee's momentum.

30:28 And then, you know it just was belligerent and something I have never seen in 27 years here in Congress. And serving under four different presidents...I've never seen a moment like this. That's not how these meetings usually go? No! So, there's no reporting. This is silly. This is stupid. It's a big charade

I don't know why they are taking so long Because she doesn't have the votes Of course a ton of Republicans who were on... To say they have the votes? It looks like they got the votes! Nooo

31:55 Republicans are, they will not do that. Not in the House not in the Senate a couple I'm sure. The Senate is...I am with you on the Senate but at the house they've got to vote Well I'm not so sure they do I'm convinced of it. The Senate, no. Unless they do a secret ballot! But let's just... all these subpoenas and it's all this all these lies this is you know this is a true conspiracy to, oh we're subpoenaing everybody and the Trump is obstructed... The Trump. The Trump is obstructing by not letting people adhere to the subpoenas but

32:38 These are not — it may say subpoena, but it's not an official subpoena. You don't get that until you take the impeachment vote then you have subpoena power. It can just say oh I'm — it's just a lie! There is no subpoenas that are legally enforceable they're just calling it a subpoena they might even write subpoena on the envelope but until you have the vote you can't do — you can't issue subpoenas for impeachment So something has to happen and it looks like this was, you know they're gonna try. Again I think Elijah Cummings messed it up unless they can spin it into Trump killed him which I think you could make the case Well they're going have a hard time making that case because thats going detract from... You know their trying to focus for change If we go over the Trump rotation, trumprotation.com for anyone out there who hasn't looked at

Analysis of Democratic Primary Debate Format and Vocabulary

An analysis of the Democratic primary debate revealed that the word "look" was used 64 times by candidates. Critics compared the WWE-style format to professional wrestling and suggested a return to the League of Women Voters' debate standards. There are calls for one-on-one, hour-long debates on C-SPAN to provide more substantive policy discussions.

democratic debate· dnc· tulsi gabbard· league of women voters· c-span· elizabeth warren

33:35 And you look at the laundry list, they can't seem to focus on anything to get this guy. So this is the hardest effort they've ever put into any one thing and now their Cummings thing is... Oh damn you Cummings! It's not helping. I don't know if you want to make that a jumping off point for the debates because they have an impeach medley Uh, okay. Did you make this impeach medley? No I did not i stole this Okay what's it what's it titled debate so that I get all these debates oh okay all right let's do some debates though I watched uh and well let's talk about that well then before we do that then if we can go over some pre-clip research which I did okay offhanded research is not the kind of thing we should be doing this more often but I did at this time

34:31 I download the entire transcript and look for keywords. How about the word, LOOK? 64 times! And everybody was doing it! Look, look...and it's so stupid because I thought about this if one person had said listen That would have been so effective. No, it's 64 times somebody said look and it was every all of them I couldn't really pin it on anyone right is another one including alright was 87 Oh my right? Right, right, right, she had 87 of those You have oh Curiously there was only four fact of the matters But they were all from Bernie and Joe

35:20 All from Joe all from Joe No, Bernie. Yeah, this is good There was also a here's the deal three times Oh exactly Trump was referenced 84 times, with corruption 15 times. How about at the end of the day? That was in there a couple of times I didn't look up into today. I did look up impeachment which is 43. I've also got you know which i thought it's very distressing Because this is kind of like, you know street talk from athletes in the 70s. You know? You know? You know? And who was the... 34 times mostly who was the offender? Warren. Four of the formed, you-know-what. Warren Booker and Klobuchar and Sanders all said, you-know-WHAT! No it's like, you-know-WHAT? Like Keats says, you-know-WHAT?! Yeah, you're wrong

36:21 And you know what? And the other one was, guess what. Which is another thing a 12 year old says, guess what! Guess what! Guess what! And that's wrong Biden 3 Klobuchar 1 on that one Another one that you can get... You should be able to guess who's the big offender for this So Warren She not only says so but she also says so look three times total So here's a whatever quote so look I want to get what works done That's leader talk right there, buddy. Oh yeah, so I want Words for the whole debate with 32 thousand which is a very small book Climate change was mentioned three times billion and billionaires was mentioned 26 times sure by Warren mainly by Warren

37:24 Actually, it was mostly by Bernie. You know what really is so odd as I was thinking about this this morning? Obviously we live in America and this is a WWE format It's completely like wrestling but if the age match yeah, I mean This campaign everything is running up to a foot more than of course, but we're still a full year ahead of the election, there's plenty of time and it can be on C-SPAN. That would be an idea! You could have every single one of these candidates debate each other in an hour long actual debate format mano a mano one-on-one and anyone who is interested could go see it and mainstream media could still pull clips from it and do little sound bites

38:13 That's what we should be demanding. Let's have an actual debate." This is not a debate, this is insulting to anyone's intelligence who is actually interested in what these people have to say and there's no reason why we wouldn't be able to do that. Why the... well it's not the media's fault It's the DNC! The Democratic National Committee They don't want that to happen In fact someone mentioned I think it might've been... was it Tulsi? And now I can't remember if it was on the debate or not, but someone said hey i'd really like the League of Women Voters to come in and take a hold of these debates. It was Tulsi but she was on an interview somewhere they said you know...I've asked The League Of Women Voters to take over the televising. Well they used do their debates! I know!! They left out of disgust!!!

39:04 They left, they were the ones that set it up and then once it became this mainstream only two parties get to do a debate the League of Women Voters said see ya and they left. And I mean this is so insulting It's just insulting what they're doing. And its not even good television anymore! Well no... That's the most insulting part for me Let's go to the Impeachment League It's pretty long. That's all right, we'll take a listen. Two years ago I started the Need to Impeach movement because i knew there was something desperately wrong at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Impeachment is the way that we establish that this man will not be permitted to break the law over and over without consequences Our framers imagined this moment A moment where we would have a corrupt president

CHAPTER 11 / 50 Discussion

Democratic Candidates Call for Trump's Removal During Debate

Democratic candidates including Tom Steyer, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden used the debate stage to advocate for the impeachment and removal of Donald Trump. Ratings for the CNN/New York Times debate dropped to 8 million viewers, down from 10.7 million for the previous ABC debate. Candidates argued that failing to hold the president accountable would set a dangerous precedent for future administrations.

38:13 That's what we should be demanding. Let's have an actual debate." This is not a debate, this is insulting to anyone's intelligence who is actually interested in what these people have to say and there's no reason why we wouldn't be able to do that. Why the... well it's not the media's fault It's the DNC! The Democratic National Committee They don't want that to happen In fact someone mentioned I think it might've been... was it Tulsi? And now I can't remember if it was on the debate or not, but someone said hey i'd really like the League of Women Voters to come in and take a hold of these debates. It was Tulsi but she was on an interview somewhere they said you know...I've asked The League Of Women Voters to take over the televising. Well they used do their debates! I know!! They left out of disgust!!!

39:04 They left, they were the ones that set it up and then once it became this mainstream only two parties get to do a debate the League of Women Voters said see ya and they left. And I mean this is so insulting It's just insulting what they're doing. And its not even good television anymore! Well no... That's the most insulting part for me Let's go to the Impeachment League It's pretty long. That's all right, we'll take a listen. Two years ago I started the Need to Impeach movement because i knew there was something desperately wrong at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Impeachment is the way that we establish that this man will not be permitted to break the law over and over without consequences Our framers imagined this moment A moment where we would have a corrupt president

39:58 And our framers then rightly designed our system of democracy to say there will be checks and balances. This is one of those moments." I support impeachment, but we shouldn't have any illusions that impeaching Donald Trump will 1.) Be successful or 2.) Erase the problems that got him elected in 2016 We have to impeach this president and majority Americans not only support impeachment they support removal he should be removed The president has left the Congress with no choice. And this is not just about holding the president accountable for, not just the things emerging in these investigations but actions that he has confessed to on television. It is absolutely imperative we go forward with impeachment I hope that he isn't impeached But I think what would be a disaster if the American people believed all we were doing was taking on Trump! I swore an oath

40:49 To do my job as a senator, to do my duty. This president has violated his I will do mine If the house votes to impeach the Senate does not vote to remove Donald Trump He walks out and he feels exonerated further deepening the divides in this country that we cannot afford We do not hold them to account if there is not justice Not only have we failed this moment our Constitution in our country But we have failed everyone who has sacrificed and laid their lives down on the line And they cannot do that. Well I said from beginning that If in fact Trump continued to stonewall what the Congress is entitled to know about his background, what he did all the accusations in the Mueller report. And if they did that they would have no choice but to begin an impeachment proceeding I would like to hear from him about how coddling up Vladimir Putin makes America great again

41:44 He says it makes America great again. It makes Russia great again. This is about Donald Trump, but understand it's about the next president and the next president and the next president and the future of this country because a President 10 years or 100 years from now will look back at this moment And draw the conclusion either that no one is above the law Or that a President can get away with anything By the way overnight ratings are in New low for debate ratings The previous debates which was that was those that ABC I believe maybe yeah, they had 10.7 million viewers CNN 8 million viewers so they can't see more than I thought they'd get Well it doesn't really matter it was a bad product It's just the bad product give me one flag to now I'm starting to notice this stuff and ever since you turned me on to it

CHAPTER 12 / 50 Discussion

Tulsi Gabbard Accuses CNN and New York Times of Smearing Veterans

Tulsi Gabbard confronted debate moderators from CNN and the New York Times, accusing their organizations of smearing her as a "Russian asset" and "Assad apologist." She criticized the media for "cheerleading" regime change wars in Syria since 2011. Gabbard called for an end to draconian sanctions and the cessation of support for groups like Al-Qaeda in the Middle East.

tulsi gabbard· cnn· new york times· syria· regime change war· russian asset

42:46 Not a single stars and stripes anywhere. They don't have to but it just kind of seems if you're gonna dress it up as something America Then you should do something about it It's just me all right I got a good one here that I mean, I have a whole bunch of I Have a couple You know Just some some light-hearted ones So I can intersperse that if you've got some things that you want I have a couple that cotton Let me go into the strongest ones well actually let's listen to Tulsi with her long pause before she decides, the people putting on this debate is CNN and The New York Times. So Tulsi decides to slam them for good reason and I'm surprised she should have asked for an apology on the spot. By the way let's just go back for a second, the television portion. Erin Burnett who looks much better than she did say a year ago so she's cleaned up and she's looking good but she sitting it was almost like an optical illusion

43:44 The way the camera shot was set up when they introduced her and Anderson and the New York Times guy. She looks bigger than both of them put together. It was very unfriendly for her, it was like holy crap look at these two little minuscule dudes sitting next to her. And she's a big woman! Well I don't think she is but they made... No she's not, she's not They made her look that way it was nasty so yeah CNN and of course you've got the New York Times guy Eric? Was that his name? Eric? I don't know who was that guy he was the most He was just kind of a dud. He's a drip, he's a journo! A drip? He was a drip?! So Tulsi is gonna slam them here... Last week you said that American troops should get out of Syria now You don't agree with how the president handled the withdrawal What would you have done differently How would you have pulled out troops without the bloodshed we're seeing now

44:34 First of all, we've got to understand the reality of the situation there which is that the slaughter of the Kurds being done by Turkey is yet another negative consequence of the regime change war that we've been waging in Syria. Donald Trump has the blood of the Kurds on his hand But so do many of the politicians in our country from both parties who have supported this ongoing regime change war in Syria that started in 2011, along with many in the mainstream media who have been championing and cheerleading this regime change war. Not only that but

45:11 New York Times and CNN have also smeared veterans like myself for calling for an end to this regime change war. Just two days ago, the New York Times put out a an article saying that I'm a Russian asset and an Assad apologist and all these different smears this morning as CNN commentator said on national television that I am an asset of Russia Completely despicable. As president, I will end these regime change wars by doing two things ending the draconian sanctions that are really a modern-day siege, the likes of which we're seeing Saudi Arabia wage against Yemen that have caused tens and thousands of Syrian civilians to die and to starve. And I would make sure that we stop supporting terrorists like al Qaeda in Syria who've been the ground force in this ongoing regime change war. Thank you. I'd like to ask Senator Warren if she would join me in calling for an end to this regime change war in Syria finally?

46:13 So look, I think that we ought to get out of the Middle East. I don't think we should have troops in the Middle East But we have do it the right way the smart way It was interesting a couple of different candidates Tried this I want okay? I want you to just say is this is new trick by the way I want you to sign up with me for this will you admit to this I mean I'm even getting people on Twitter doing this so Adam Curry wouldn't you agree that like block Get out of my feed. It's kind of the Lindsey Graham approach to asking questions at the end, wouldn't you agree that is the way he starts his question with? Yeah I was insulted by Andrew Yang Oh you have a clip Well we also have to be realistic that competition doesn't solve all the problems it's not like any of us wants to use the fourth best navigation app there's a reason why no one is using Bing today

CHAPTER 13 / 50 Discussion

Andrew Yang and Elizabeth Warren Debate Big Tech Antitrust

Andrew Yang argued that using 20th-century antitrust frameworks to break up Big Tech companies will not solve modern problems like teen anxiety and depression. He criticized Elizabeth Warren's plan, suggesting that competition alone doesn't fix the negative effects of social media. The discussion included a jab at Microsoft's Bing as an inferior navigation alternative.

andrew yang· elizabeth warren· big tech· antitrust· smartphones· bing

47:10 Sorry Microsoft! into a degree and it's about breaking up big tech because that's where this all came from. Elizabeth Warren is all about break them up, we'll break up the big tech! So it's not like breaking up these big tech companies will revive Main Street businesses around the country and as the parent of two young children I'm particularly concerned about screen use and its effect on our children

47:54 Studies clearly show that we're seeing record levels of anxiety and depression coincident with smartphone adoption and social media use. Breaking up the tech companies does nothing to make our kids healthier. What we have to do is, we have to home in on the specific problems were trying to solve and use 21st century solutions for 21st century problems using a 20th-century antitrust framework will not work." Now while I agree with him that using antitrust will not work he puts the blame on the phone somehow and i would say the following you don't need to break up big tech

48:30 You need to break up with Big Tech. This is not like television where you can only get so many channels and there's limited resources, this is the internet! Anybody can post anything they want anywhere it doesn't have to be on Twitter unless you have some ego issue or you need to have your voice heard consistently and liked etc. Break UP WITH BIG TECH don't breakup big tech And this guy also has no plans what a fool I mean, a fool. Just a fool. A lot of people love that guy. Yeah well, I'm not so in love with him. Is it doof? So I was looking at...I have a couple of clips here that I want to follow up and do a little deeper dive on. First of all they were- I looked at all the fact check fact check! They had all these fact checks. Fact Check False. And they had this going live and they did this stuff that they fact checked was we looked at the obvious ones that needed to be fact checked

CHAPTER 14 / 50 Discussion

Joe Biden Misquotes George Washington on Foreign Interference

Joe Biden claimed during the debate that George Washington warned against foreign interference in his first speech as president. A fact check of Washington's 1789 inaugural address shows no mention of the words "foreign," "intervention," or "interference." The actual speech focused on religious guidance and the "invisible hand" of providence.

joe biden· george washington· inaugural address· foreign interference· fact check· ukraine

49:28 But in fact, they did no fact checking. They just saw a few things if the guy wasn't slamming Trump correctly then they'd fact check. In fact the last Tulsi clip there was a huge mistake she made in there you remember what it was? No It was obvious to me when she said it. She said that the battle, the blowing, maiming and killing and fighting in Yemen has resulted in all these Syrian deaths. Yeah no I did hear that and that was just a complete faux pas. Yeah it was a faux pas. They should have fact checked! Fact check false? So let's listen to a couple of things here Let's listen to this one This is debate Biden on George Washington

50:15 Okay. worried on the first time he spoke after being elected president that what we had to worry about is foreign interference in our elections. It was the greatest threat to America this president on three occasions, three occasions has invited foreign governments and heads of government to get engaged in trying to alter our elections And this is why you sent me a link to drop into the show notes Exactly I have George Washington's speech

51:00 I'll read what he said again. Look, my son did nothing wrong. I did nothing wrong It carried out the policy United States government rooting out corruption in Ukraine and that's what we should be focusing on He says, my son's statement speaks for itself. He spoke about it today. My son's statement speaks for itself and he actually repeats himself there. What I think is important is that we focus on why it's so important to remove this man from office? So he just lost it then. And so he lost his train of thought and he says this on the look the fact that George Washington worried on the first time he spoke about being elected president. This was what he actually said. It's just like as gobbledy-gook

51:39 That we had to worry he's a word again. He said we had to worry about is Is that that's in that clip, we just heard yeah if you listen isn't it amazing how your brain will put such Dispair you piece a lot of it together when you listened to him talk But what he said was on the first time he spoke after being elected president that what? What we had to worry about is foreign interference in our elections. It was the greatest threat to America, this president on three occasions has invited foreign governments and heads of government to get engaged now the three occasions by the way you remember what those are?

52:27 I do. The three-k? One, where he jokingly said Russia if you've got the 30 000 emails release them! Yeah yeah that's one. Two was when he asked the Ukrainian guy hey if you get a chance look into the Bidens and three was when he said just casually to China and I want to just say casually to China looking into the Bidens so those were the three things. Impeach! Meanwhile George Washington got his speech He says the word foreign is not used in the speech. The foreign intervention is not used in the speech, the word intervention is not used in this speech he talks nothing about this as a lie! This is an absolute lie

53:12 The real speech, which we have in the show notes talks about how God is great and how God is overseeing the country and guiding us with his invisible hand. That's pretty much what this speech is. This first speech after he got elected it says inaugural address... Except for that end of that talks about emoluments and his business dealings I thought that was kind of interesting at the very end of his speech Who? Of George Washington's speech. Yeah, I mean, I've read it! You sent me the thing and while i'm reading through this like...I don't get it. I thought it was going to be about emoluments there is of course nothing in there about being worried about foreign intervention or no No nothing and then if you start thinking about it historically whenever did any president before just recently ever discuss or care about foreign intervention

54:07 Let alone George Washington. So this was a blatant lie! Well, Joe did a lot of lying he lied about assault weapons all kinds of stuff Was that particular incident called out by these fact checkers? Fact fact fact checkers? No no More interest or equally interesting to me was how Anderson Cooper framed that question and I just want us to listen to that. This is a televised debate, we want to hear what people have to say he's going at the former vice president with a tough question which will not be answered but it's a tough question and here's how he frames it impeachment inquiry is centered on President Trump's attempts to get political dirt from Ukraine on Vice President Biden and his son Hunter

CHAPTER 15 / 50 Discussion

Kamala Harris Mischaracterizes Trump's Fifth Avenue Comment

Kamala Harris claimed Donald Trump said he could "shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and get away with it." Fact-checkers noted that Trump's actual 2016 quote was that he "wouldn't lose any voters" if he committed such an act. The distinction highlights a difference between legal immunity and voter loyalty.

kamala harris· donald trump· fifth avenue· fact check· maya angelou

54:52 Mr. Vice President, President Trump has falsely... Falsely! ...accused your son of doing something wrong while serving on a company board in Ukraine I want to point out there's no evidence... No evidence! ..of the wrongdoing by either one of you Having said that on Sunday you announced that he... I mean for-for a well I don't know if Anderson considers himself a journalist but I think that's kind of unjournalistic You just..you know we have no proof? I'm actually kinda shocked that I didn't catch that Well, you should. That clip proves that the bias is ridiculous but let me go into my second fact check. Fact check false? Okay this is uh we're gonna go debates this is Kamala on Donald Trump

55:39 Pelosi has said that members of Congress have to be, in her words, fair to the president and give him a chance to exonerate himself. You've already said that based on everything you've seen you would vote to remove him from office is that being fair to the President? Well, it's just being observant because he has committed crimes in plain sight. I mean it's shocking but he told us who he was Maya Angelou told us years ago listen to somebody when they tell you who they are the first time during that election Donald Trump told us he could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and get away with it That's right nailed it wrong

56:15 Oh, do you mean it's a fact check false? Oh do tell but that again nobody put this in their fact checklist because it didn't work in the scheme of things. Here is Trumps clip with what he actually said and he has oops Well, what is it called? A cop could shoot someone. Okay you're making me work today man sorry They say I have the most loyal people did you ever see that where i could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose any voters okay It's like incredible Yeah so its a little different than how she framed it She said he could shoot somebody and get away with it. He said I could shoot somebody, and it wouldn't lose any voters That is not the same check false yes check false This is like shooting fish in a barrel you know it's it's I do like it It's oh let me let me give us a little bit of information And I think you may be the only person to

CHAPTER 16 / 50 Discussion

Joe Biden's "Clipping Coupons" Comment and Anachronistic Language

Joe Biden faced ridicule on social media for using the phrase "clipping coupons on the stock market" to describe wealthy investors. While the term refers to an older method of collecting interest from physical bond certificates, many younger viewers mistook it for grocery store coupons. Critics cited this as evidence of Biden's anachronistic communication style.

joe biden· wall street· clipping coupons· capital gains tax· bonds

57:15 Who understood what Joe Biden was saying here? I saw Twitter go crazy. I saw red Republican Twitter go, he's lost it! He has no- What?! What is he talking about? He's crazy this guy. Boom clips coupons on Wall Street Do you believe that Senator Sanders and Senator Warrens wealth tax plans do that No look, demonizing wealth people...what i talked about is how you get things done And the way to get things done is take a look at the tax code right now. The idea we have to start rewarding work, not just wealth I would eliminate the capital gains tax that in our day I would raise the capital gains tax to the highest... It didn't help that he flubbed that one? That didn't make anything good?

58:01 that in I would raise the capital gains tax to the highest rate of 39.5 percent, i would double it because guess what? Why in God's name should someone who is clipping coupons on the stock market make in fact pay a lower tax rate than someone who in fact is like I said a school teacher and a firefighter It's ridiculous and they pay lower tax So there were all these RNC GOP Twitter accounts going he's lost it who thinks people on Wall Street are clipping coupons Yes, and they're referring to clipping coupons old-fashioned way of clipping them off the bonds you'd buy. You have a bunch of coupons on it and clip the coupons off. Exactly! This is what people don't understand in there and I asked a lot of people no one understood this and I was quite frankly shocked that... There are still people who clip coupons take them through the issuing bank and get their interest check. Yeah? There's people who actually cut them off

58:59 Of course, they only pay capital gains tax which was his point. But that and I'm going to use the word for the second time anachronism Joe Biden is an anachronism He cannot communicate in terms that anyone except two old fogy white dudes you and me Understand maybe Horowitz Or Horowitz would know. Well anybody in the business would know it Nobody on Twitter, none of the talking heads. They all laughed at him and of course he's laughable because he makes gaffe after gaffe but

59:37 This was, I mean instead of saying no you got a hedge fund manager or you know. No he conjures up the image of old people clipping coupons out of the Saturday Flyer to go buy milk what a moron! I'm sorry it's cruel they keep putting this man on the stage it's cruel Well yeah there was a fuss over this but he was actually right and in Except I think he's probably more along the lines of he'd like to because he's obviously one of those guys that got a bunch of coupon bonds. He doesn't want to pay any taxes on it! I don't wanna pay taxes off my clips, uh-uh! Yeah... Oh my goodness. Alright well we got other..I get a second half of Camel after she made that insane comment she still slamming Trump is another

CHAPTER 17 / 50 Discussion

Beto O'Rourke Confirms Mandatory Gun Buyback Consequences

Beto O'Rourke clarified his stance on mandatory gun buybacks, stating that law enforcement would take AR-15 and AK-47 rifles from citizens who refuse to turn them in. He suggested that "consequences" would follow for those who persist in keeping prohibited weapons. Critics argue this stance effectively ended his viability in more conservative states like Texas.

beto o'rourke· gun control· ar-15· mandatory buyback· law enforcement

1:00:36 12 seconds of her and he has consistently since he won been selling out the American people He's been selling out working people. He's been selling our values. He's been selling out national security and on this issue with Ukraine He has been selling at our democracy Okay, I get this is a question. I have to ask you okay by Just mentioning Joe Biden to do Ukrainian comedian president, prime minister or president. President I think. How is that selling out our democracy?

1:01:12 He says he's selling out everything, but I don't know specifically how is he selling it. Well by the same token you can't explain why he has endangered our national security. It means the same bull crap that's exactly what the television is telling me. He's endangered our politicians! Nancy, Chuck, Steny they're all saying it. He endangered our national security if you can explain that then maybe we could understand these sold-out part I don't know. They should be more explanatory. I'd like an explanation, please What do you mean specifically when you say these things? I thought Beto ended his run during this debate

1:01:55 He ended his run way before this debate. This was about the gun buyback scheme that he's touting, and the gun buyback scheme is one thing but he took it one step further which I think just ended him right there Just to follow up your expectations aside your website says you will find people who don't give up their weapons Doesn't take those weapons off the street so to be clear exactly How are you going to take away weapons from people who do not want to give them up and you don't know where they are? If someone does not turn in an AR-15 or AK47, one of these weapons of war. Or brings it out in public and branches is that in attempt to intimidate as we saw when were at Kent State recently then that weapon will be taken from them if they persist there will be other consequences from law enforcement but the expectation is that Americans will follow a lot I believe in this country I believe my fellow Americans I believe they would do right thing

1:02:54 We will take your guns or there will be consequences for you! Yeah, good luck Beto. Good luck I'm amazed they let him back into Texas talking like that. Yeah... I'm sorry i didn't know you were so bored you walked away Yeah, Beto. I can't really sit too close to the screen and get anxious. I want to bust up the place. Can't sit so close to Beto. Beto? I got no Beto clips! That was my one and only. Well that's more than enough. By the way there was some sort of macho thing going on with Buttigieg in Tulsi. Yeah it was cool

Pete Buttigieg and Tulsi Gabbard Clash Over Syria Withdrawal

Pete Buttigieg and Tulsi Gabbard, both veterans, clashed over the U.S. withdrawal from Syria. Buttigieg characterized the withdrawal as a "betrayal" of American allies and values. Gabbard countered that the ongoing slaughter is a direct consequence of the "regime change war" policy supported by both parties.

1:03:39 He's a, she was an officer and he was like I think he's like a brown troop or something. But he just irked about her. He drove a Humvee, I think. Oh okay well... He's in harm's way but here he slams there's a little short clip of him slamming her. Well respectfully congresswoman i think that is dead wrong The slaughter going on in Syria is not a consequence of American presence. It's a consequence of a withdrawal and a betrayal by this president, of American allies and American values. Yeah they're both wrong

1:04:16 They both are full of it. They're both wrong, that's true! Yeah, it's ridiculous. People should go back and listen to the last show where you did a takedown of this whole Syrian boots on the ground thing that could be a whole show in most instances Just remember no boots on the ground That was the promise These are not combat troops They're not fighting In fact they were not allowed to fight Assist and advise Training only. Or maybe that wasn't true, who knows? Now the biggest stink which you may not have picked up on but I picked up on it because of some following I do on Twitter and it's a huge, huge stink is when Biden went after Warren Oh yes! Oh I'm sure that was smelly

Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren Dispute Consumer Protection Bureau

Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren sparred over the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Biden patronizingly told Warren she "did a hell of a job" while implying the agency was primarily an Obama achievement. Warren's supporters criticized Biden's tone as cynical and dismissive of her role in overseeing the banker bailouts.

1:05:07 And this really brought the feminazis out. I'm sorry, if i ever say that word again you can honk the horn. It was... That's really... Maybe I should do the show with Rush Limbaugh? Why don't we do that? We make more money. That guy knows how to make money! Any guy that goes to commercial break and says time for another insanely profitable commercial break, that guys doing okay? Yeah he does that But he, they really came out of the woodwork on this one. And I do have the clip that this is pretty much... This isn't the whole thing but this is 49 seconds of the patronizing part that got everyone all irked when

1:05:53 She's talking about the great job she did on a Consumer Protection Act. Right And this thing, which is you know This was gonna stop robocall it doesn't do anything by the way from what I could tell but according to her It saved the consumers 1250 billion dollars. Well as part of this she helped oversee TARP The banker bailout! She was overseeing that Yeah, people forget. I think that's what Joe Biden said. got annoyed as she was going on and on and so he kind of jumps in at some point, then they do a little back-and-forth. It was the way it was done... He also laughs at her! He's laughing at the woman which makes, of course this is bad if you ever laugh at a woman this brings out all that horrible... Oh yeah now you can't be doing that. Bad, bad. So this is really a major gaffe I guess

1:06:52 Here it is. I am deeply grateful to President Obama who fought so hard to make sure that agency was passed into law and i'm deeply grateful every single person who fought for it and helped pass it into law but understand... You did a hell of job your job. Thank you now

1:07:44 I wonder how many people really picked up on him being cynical. I think when he says you did a hell of a job, what he said doing it. He didn't quite get it out right but he was saying you did a great job doing your job Right That's what got everybody upset See? I didn't even hear that way because when I think of the Consumer Protection Bureau enabled by the Act which Elizabeth Warren oversaw and then was kicked out off if you recall she was kicked out of it by Obama cause she was no good

1:08:22 You know, she did a horrible job. We still have robocalls I still get all kinds of borderline fraudulent offers in the mail. I mean... I got two calls from Apple support the other day again From India? From my iCloud account which has been compromised Oh what's your password quick! I don't even have an iCloud account but okay No of course not Yeah, my password is F-U-C. That's a funny one! I've got to remember to use that. Now first of all... we can wrap this up maybe... in general i felt that Bernie Sanders

Bernie Sanders Returns to Debate Stage After Heart Attack

Bernie Sanders made a strong return to the debate stage following a recent heart attack, using humor to address his health. He maintained his focus on the high cost of healthcare and prescription drugs, appealing to voters "sick and tired" of the current system. Despite his performance, analysts remain skeptical that the DNC will allow him to become the nominee.

bernie sanders· heart attack· healthcare· prescription drugs· dnc

1:09:07 Was what a comeback that guy comes back from a heart attack is smart I think he fixed his teeth too while he was in there like you know, you're out. Anyway, let's fix these teeth And so he had, it was all smiles. He was funny. He was very clear now yet he's clear and not having any solutions but he just consistently hammers with people are sick and tired of it they're sick and tired of the cost of health insurance sick and tired of the cost of prescriptions their sick and tired of this message is simple it's appealing to a lot of people yes a lot of bullcrap

1:09:42 he had the joke of the night. Oh, I know. I thought he said not all the time No he says i'm not on it tonight He has humor That is cute yeah Everything's great about him He's quick Yeah oh yeah very quick There was not a beat missed on that comeback And Bernie had lots of funny moments The problem with Bernie is he's not a democrat You know they'll never let him become the nominee ever in a million years Like I don't even know why he's doing it

1:10:33 other than he really has conviction and truly believes in it, which I appreciate that. I really do. Elizabeth Warren falls into the drip category Get out of here! And you know seeing what we saw and basing this on three years of prediction The obvious question is, is this the right moment? Is this the time? Well it could have happened yesterday. It didn't so we're still holding our breath or not Before we leave to debate I do want to play what I thought was just a good Bernie This is Bernie's whole bit

CHAPTER 21 / 50 Discussion

Bernie Sanders and Tom Steyer on the Existence of Billionaires

Bernie Sanders argued that "billionaires should not exist" while half a million Americans are homeless and millions struggle with student debt. Billionaire candidate Tom Steyer agreed that the wealthy should pay more in taxes. The discussion touched on the implementation of a wealth tax versus an income tax to address extreme wealth inequality.

bernie sanders· tom steyer· wealth tax· billionaires· income inequality

1:11:26 kind of wrapped into one. I believe this is the right one, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie on billionaires. This is actually pretty funny because he goes off on everything wrong with the country and everything wrong with billionaires there shouldn't be any and he gets that idiot Tom Steyer to come up next they don't have that. To agree that there should no billionaires. I hate the success. Self-loathing billionaires! I don't like being a billionaire Everybody have a grand on me When you introduced your wealth tax which would tax the assets of the wealthiest Americans, You said quoting you Senator Billionaires should not exist is the goal of your plan to tax billionaires out of existence when you have a half a million Americans sleeping out on the street today

1:12:18 When you have 87 people, 87 million people uninsured or under-insured. When you got hundreds of thousands of kids who cannot afford to go to college and millions struggling with the oppressive burden of student debt and then you also have three people owning more wealth than the bottom half of American society that is a moral and economic outrage And the truth is we cannot afford to continue this level of income and wealth inequality, and we cannot afford a billionaire class whose greed and corruption has been at war with the working families in this country for 45 years. So if you're asking me

1:13:06 Do I think we should demand that the wealthy start paying, the wealthiest top one-tenth of 1% stop paying their fair share of taxes so we can create a nation and a government that works for all of us? Yes. That's exactly what i believe." Again he hits all the right buttons but then it's like well just fix it with taxes on them and no one believes that No one believes it Everyone knows about money. Now if you read, people should read my essay on wealth tax and what it really should be like and how it works or why would work well. It doesn't involve soaking the top but they do get dinged a lot more than they do today. It's just a new way of taxation

1:13:53 Yeah, but it's a way of taxation that eliminates in my opinion the real problem is income. Income should not be taxed because people cannot accumulate wealth if you just keep attacking their income. you should only attack their wealth after they accumulate it and most people don't have a lot of wealth and they'd be paying very little taxes if any. They definitely would be paying less than they're paying now except the super hyper wealthy that have a pot load of money, they'll be paying more but it's not that much 1.8% I think is the number I came up with. Well while we are dicking around in this morass of sludge

European Protests and Farmer Defense Force in The Netherlands

Massive protests by the Farmer Defense Force in The Netherlands saw tractors blocking streets in The Hague, prompting the government to deploy the military. Similar unrest is reported in Toulouse with the Yellow Vests and in Catalonia over the imprisonment of independence leaders. Critics noted a lack of coverage of these events in mainstream American media.

netherlands· farmer defense force· the hague· yellow vests· catalan· military

1:14:31 There's actual things going on. Europe is kind of on fire, we've got the yellow vest rioting in Toulouse... Where is the coverage of that? We've got Catalan is exploding violence everywhere because they're locking people up for a decade or more The Netherlands! Where's the coverage of that? The Netherlands, the farmer defense force went to The Hague to protest with their tractors And think about it, pitchforks and tractors. The politicians were so afraid they didn't call the police They didn't call the SWAT team No! They put the military on the streets! The government is so afraid of the farmers they put the military there to defend them Where's the coverage? You'd think that would be important because it could happen anywhere

1:15:26 And it's in there is this shit going on. I asked the revolution will not be televised I should have known better and with that don't want to televise it for that reason these large corporations that own the media They this is they don't want to get this kind of a mess. They would give anybody any ideas and those two no agenda douchebags should be quiet too Yeah, well luckily yeah. And they would have silenced us many moons ago had we not chosen for a value-for-value method and with that I would like to thank you for your courage in this the man who put the C in coupon clipping in the morning to you John C Dvorak

CHAPTER 26 / 50 Discussion

Media Narratives and the Ukraine Impeachment Push

The hosts analyzed the "Ukraine Impeachment Push" (UIP), arguing that media headlines are creating a psyche of corruption around President Trump. They emphasized the importance of reading the actual transcripts of the Ukraine call rather than relying on parroted talking points. The discussion noted that the "most corrupt president" narrative is being successfully seeded into public discourse.

ukraine· impeachment· donald trump· propaganda· mainstream media

1:29:18 It does eventually seep in, you know. And in a world where we only read headlines... I mean truly only read headlines and actually would just love retweeting headlines based upon the headline—We really don't read I'm thankful that we looked at the Ukraine transcript the minute it was released and we could see that, the truth of what...at least the only evidence we have. You know it's a transcript so who knows but its supposed to be correct So we know exactly what did or did not go on an all you hear about and all that is being parroted across the spectrum

1:30:07 Into the you know through the whole machine not just the cable news and the m5m but the social social social nets It's everywhere is, you know He's a traitor has given up our national security. You know, he's not he's above it doesn't think this is above the law He can't be we've got to get rid of him. He's the worst president ever Never seen a president so corrupt This is a new one that most corrupt president in history I think Biden even said that during the debate It does. That's a Bernie original that has been passed around it does seep into the psyche and I'm and that's what i'm worried about, um... I'd like to play a clip from a podcast

CHAPTER 27 / 50 Discussion

T.I. and Cardi B Discuss Electoral College and Race

Hip-hop icons T.I. and Cardi B discussed the electoral college and racial voting patterns on a recent podcast. Cardi B claimed that "country bumpkin" voters prioritize their hatred of Mexicans over their own needs, such as Medicare. The hosts criticized the discussion as bigoted and noted the significant influence these artists have on young audiences.

t.i.· cardi b· chance the rapper· electoral college· racism· medicare

1:30:48 And it's two cultural icons of the moment. Tip T.I Harris, who you probably don't know... Have you heard of Chance the Rapper? Do you know Chance the Rapper stuff? I know Chance the Rapper- I don't KNOW Chance the Rapper! You know Chance the Rapper and Cardi B. Oh, CARDI B. You know Cardi B too, you've seen her. Everybody knows Cardi B. Now their audience, their prime audience is young white girls That is who buys hip-hop records. That is who loves these cultural icons They are not on par with the Beyonce or an Oprah But they're definitely people who are listened to and this was a podcast on podcast one which is part of the Westwood One radio networks, and they were sitting together talking about

1:31:42 the election and the president and how elections work. Now, it'll be hard for me not to laugh at some of the obvious vocabulary gaffes...and I make tons of them myself but it kind of shows you as we listen...I'm sorry? A ton of them. What did I say? I make a ton of them! I make a ton good gaffes, I think you just didn't hear it through the Skype connection. It's possible But it's still fun. But it also shows you, you will immediately recognize these vocabulary gaffes as just someone who has heard something and is just parroting what they have heard on the mainstream media but I'm concerned about the influence they have on our young people of course its not only white but man that is their big audience and this I feel

1:32:36 to a degree harmful and I just want to bring it everyone's attention that this is what your children are probably listening too. I feel like Oprah could be president but it was so hard for Hillary to become President even though she's... Do you know why? Even though her husband was already present But do you know why I feel like I mean, I'm sorry. I don't usually correct things like this but it's the electoral college It's not the electorial college

1:33:17 And now I'm playing it, and it's not even funny anymore. I've been so sad about this podcast. Yeah but she didn't go with the electoral college. The electoral college are gonna go with... With Beyonce? A woman? This is the thing about presidential candidates over the course of our lifetime When we hear about a presidential candidate, we have very little to no experience or knowledge of them or their platform until somebody say hey this person running for president. Right? The first time we hear they name is uh this person some ways running for president you know what I'm saying right if you have an Oprah if you have a Beyonce if you have even with Trump

1:34:07 They like we knew these people before we knew them. We had more knowledge of them than we did Let's just say of Hillary, but a lot of only thing we knew about Hillary is well You know she stayed with bill I lotta a lotta people a lot of Americans they vote with feelings and a lot of these people feel Religion they both do religion and they've all been raised in And fear! They fear that a black man or a black woman will take over this country.

1:34:43 Wait a minute didn't we all vote a black man into the presidency? Didn't know that they may not well it gets worse It gets worse and this is why I'm playing this. This is one of the most racist discussions, I've heard in a while Of course black people can't be racist but its races race and fear. They fear that a black man or black woman will take over this country. But to be honest with you, hip hop has already taken over the country How's it working out so far then? And the world for them. There are a lot of country bumpkin ass men who do be voting. There we go! A lot of country-ass bumpkin' men

1:35:32 which is code for white, who will be voting. And we only vote the bumpkins in Texas and stuff! We only vote on feelings and race... And they don't listen to hip-hop. Like for example right? They listen to hip hop. No let me tell you something. They listen to hip hop but they don't want no black person telling them what to do. Look so wait I was looking at What about following people with the best ideas Some people don't give a fuck about the best ideas. They really vote with feelings Come on now look look at Donald Trump right every single time he always talked about how you want to take away medicare's and shit like that John That damn trump talking about taking away the Medicare's, he's never said that

1:36:17 But everyone else has said that he wants to take away the medicare's fuck about the best ideas. They really vote with feelings Come on now look look at Donald Trump right every single time He always talked about how you want to take away Medicare's and shit like that And it's like a poor white man don't give up for a poor white man That's getting of Medicare is not even caring days saying that he just cares abou that he hates Mexicans and he want to get rid of them. That's it, that's right yes no one cares about their medicare we just want to make sure the president hates Mexicans and gets rid of them. That what country bumpkins do! Medicare is not even caring they saying that he just care

1:36:57 that he hates Mexicans and he want to get rid of them. I don't care if Donald Trump take away the things that i need, I just hate Mexicans and I want them gone so I'm going to keep on voting for them a lot of people vote with feelings in America and a lot of their feelings is racism and religion yeah well you know the pride comes before the fall if you can feed into a person's fears and insecurities you could joystick them and direct their path to do and go wherever the fuck you want them too. And that's exactly what's being done with the Republican Party." And I would say that's exactly what's happened to the three of you, you have been stick

1:37:40 and moved, and manipulated by the Democrat Party and by the mainstream media. And the general political discourse of the M5M across all boundaries into being bigoted racist dicks! And they have influence this is not unimportant that this is happening Well, that was the most depressing clip that you've played ever. I don't know... I think i had a dog dying clip that was more depressing. I don't think so but holy mackerel yeah That's an eye-opener and this is Cardi B Is you know she's top of her game right now in the entertainment world Chance The Rapper is established! And these are big names and that's what they're feeding us? Yeah it's in their music too You can count on that

1:38:33 That's what they claim when they said that if you don't listen to hip-hop, you won't have a clue. If you listened to hip hop then it's even worse! Must be with a lot of their writing it So sorry to bum me out but I did just my mouth was aghast Yeah, pretty bad. Well talking about stuff that is again not being reported which is one of the things we were discussing here's a couple items I have That again just because of the Giuliani thing and Trump We don't hear about this. I can't find any anything about this in the mainstream. I got it on Democracy Now had it Of course Mexican news

CHAPTER 28 / 50 Discussion

Mexico Senate Moves to Legalize Marijuana

The Mexican Senate is scheduled to vote on legislation that would legalize marijuana, marking a major shift in the country's drug policy. Senator Ricardo Monreal stated that regulating consumption and cultivation is a positive step toward ending prohibition. The move is seen as a departure from the U.S.-backed drug war strategies that have dominated the region since 2006.

mexico· marijuana legalization· ricardo monreal· drug war· amlo

1:39:21 In Mexico, the Senate is slated to vote on legislation to legalize marijuana in the coming days. The bill's passage would mark a major shift away from the U.S.-backed drug war in Mexico which has killed tens of thousands of people since it began in 2006. This is Mexican Senator Ricardo Monreal, a member of the Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's Morena party Eliminating prohibition in the country is good. I think the possibility of regulating consumption, the cultivation commercialization is a good thing. Also heeding towards industrial use is also good. I think that Mexico is prepared to take on such a position on such trajectory. There are voices like that of the president who has said there should be a national consultation

1:40:14 which is under consideration, which is pending and which is under discussion. Okay so it's not legal yet or is it legal? I'm a little confused It's going to be though...it's pretty apparent that they're pushing for this and maybe they're doing it to get more money out of us to stop them but I'm not sure I can't wait for Fox News and Tucker Carlson to... Oh yeah Tucker will bitch about this. Bitch about it yes It was funny to see their protest, they showed a movie of them protesting and everybody's smoking. It was pretty amusing! Here is another story that no one is talking about and this one entails Canada in another one of these Indian uprisings.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing a hunger strike by members of the Mohawk community over a land struggle in Quebec. Despite his promises of reconciliation with First Nations, local leaders accuse his government of ignoring their concerns.

1:41:00 has gone on a hunger strike amidst an escalating land struggle between the First Nations tribe and real estate developers. The residents are asking Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to implement a short-term moratorium on all development in their territory. Trudeau has promised reconciliation with Canada's First Nations, he is facing the possibility of being unseated in Canada's federal elections next week This is Ellen Gabriel Because the government has been ignoring us for many generations, but in particular with this government that promised that we would be the most important relationship in Canada. And it wasn't so a hunger strike to provide

1:41:44 some light to this complex issue that you know the people in Ganasadaga, the Kanyakahaga Mohawk people have been fighting for many many generations. Oh yeah well Trudeau is supposed to be the big champion of this and he just bails on it You know um...

Transgender Listener Explains Violence in the Black Community

Ali Jade, a transgender listener, provided perspective on the high murder rates of black trans women, attributing the violence to dangerous "down low" relationships and sex work. She argued that the issue is often a result of community violence rather than "patriarchal" attacks. Ali also expressed opposition to medical transitions for individuals under the age of 18.

1:42:39 You know, that's two Democracy Now! clips in a row and I'm kicking myself because neither of us caught the obvious gaffe on the previous episode 1181. I did catch it Well we didn't mention it we didn't talk about it. Something happened you steamrolled me Well here is the clip This is the black trans woman this from Democracy now Democratic presidential candidates attended CNN hosted town hall Thursday night South Bend, Indiana Mayor Poop Buttigieg was interrupted by activists holding a banner and chanting trans lives matter. Yeah, Poop Buttigieg I thought it was more poop but you want to call it poop? I think um...I think I have the ISO. Here we go. Poop Buttigieg I think its poop listen again. Poop Buttigieg

1:43:33 One more time. Poop. Try it again. Be quiet! Poop Booty Judge Sounds like poop. Poop Booty Judge It does sound like poop. Poop Booty Judge Tastes like poop. Oh, it's poop you're right. It's poop! Poop Booty Judge Now that's not our end of show ISO? Poop Booty Judge No I guess not... It is a good show title Prudent Judge is a great show title. What happened, we did talk about this and I specifically said one of our transgender listeners would weigh in and of course Ali Jade the official tranny of The No Agenda Show that's how she calls herself she responded about transgender women of color being murdered because you know there's really no reporting on what's happening

1:44:27 And I think we asked a very simple question. What's happening? All we hear is reporting that it's happening, but what why what is going on Yeah, well you do the reporting supposed to be what way when who and yeah Who-who what why yes when where and where is any of this we don't get anything Well this is coming from a trans woman and she would know Adam and John, transgender people tend to get pulled towards prostitution and other sex work. Black trans people tend to go more in that direction and tend to be in rougher areas than on top of that when in relationships the people that trans people end up with or around can be bad news sometimes

1:45:10 making a lot of deaths and danger being domestic gone bad or community violence, i.e., someone regretting sex with the trans person or some other form of regret or anger The cherry on the cake is the black community itself The DL... what's that? The DL blacks Down low. The DL blacks don't care for gay people and don't like trans either, but kind of a joke is that large percentage of black guys love to expletive trans chicks

1:45:46 I run in the online and used to in person circles where there is always a large amount of black guys chasing trans girls but would never admit it or want to be confronted about it, which can lead to higher deaths because of conflicts. Me, I am a lower middle class just getting by American white trans. I live in a safe area, have a long time career and pass as woman. Don't get into social justice warrior trans advocates life as i see that being dangerous Also, I've said to you guys before transgender is not gender it's medical term indicating your transitioning to the opposite gender

1:46:24 with trans people being fully out and open also can lead to these high murder rates. Hell, of course it isn't even counting the suicides." Note for John I do not agree with anyone under 18 being transitioned People underestimate the power of hormones and how they affect the mind in the body after puberty when the proper transition timeline should be visited And she posted a link there So there you go and now we understand why it's never discussed. This is a reasonable person who listens to the show Yeah, yes! Is not triggered not pissed off not all angry and gave us an honest answer It's her opinion I've heard this But you will never hear this from people who are yelling in our activists it appears There may be an issue in the black community and the trans community itself

CHAPTER 31 / 50 Discussion

Etymology of the Term Cisgender

The hosts explored the definition and origins of the term "cisgender," noting its roots in chemistry. In molecular science, "cis" denotes a structure where atoms lie on the same side of a plane, specifically regarding carbon-carbon double bonds. The term has been adopted by social activists to describe individuals whose gender identity matches their sex assigned at birth.

cisgender· mirriam webster· molecular structure· isomer· carbon-carbon bond

1:47:12 But they make it seem like the patriarchy is killing black trans women. Oh, it's white men. That's very cisgendered. Yes So thank you very much, Ali Jade. What does cis stand for anyway? CIS what does that mean? Well it's what you are! You and I are cis But what is it mean? Where did that word come from? We should know this And why do we use it? Oh...I don't use it Well..I use all the time Why do the kids use it? Why do the kids use it? Okay, cisgender definition of cis It's cis for cisgender

1:47:49 This is from Miriam Webster, of relating to or being a person whose gender identity corresponds with the sex the person had or was identified as having at birth. So somehow this comes from corresponding maybe? No. They should tell us what it is, you're right I really don't understand Actually i brought up at the table and somebody at the table knew and I forgot It has-it's like a chemical term...It's like y'know you have this isopropyl Oh! Like molecular structure? Yeah it's like cis has something to do with it something I don't even remember what it is Here we go here we go cis adjective

1:48:27 denoting or relating to a molecular structure in which two particle atoms or groups lie on the same side of a given plane in the molecule, in particular denoting an isomer in which substituents at opposite ends of a carbon-carbon double bond are on the same side of the bond. Jeez, can I be called something else? How about just... I'd rather you call me douchebag than that. You carbon-carbon! I don't want to be carbon-carbon bond this is no good By the way big mea culpa from my side Oh my goodness I was blown away by this and i'm very upset with myself As it pertains to our conversation about Jennifer Aniston whether she uh is from California or Austin And I said there's only one actress from Austin that's Sandy Bullock

CHAPTER 32 / 50 Discussion

Sandra Bullock's Arlington Roots and Texas Tax Status

A fact check revealed that actress Sandra Bullock is not a native Texan, but was actually raised in Arlington, Virginia. She was a cheerleader and "class clown" at Washington-Lee High School, graduating in 1982. While she is a prominent resident of Austin, the hosts suggested her move to Texas was likely motivated by the state's lack of income tax.

sandra bullock· arlington· virginia· austin· texas· taxes

1:49:17 and she is our hometown girl, and I was slapped in the face by the truth. A big fact check false. I quote to you from Arlington Magazine not in Texas in Arlington District of Columbia Long, long before actress Sandra Bullock won an Oscar for her performance in The Blind Side she was stirring things up at Washington Lee High School as president of its pep club. Bullock's family landed in Arlington when her father took a job at the Pentagon Her parents bought a white brick house on 26th Street in Woodmont where mother and opera singer reportedly entertained party guests by belly dancing Although the actress has said in interviews she was teased in junior high

1:50:04 It blossomed at Washington Lee as a varsity cheerleader and drama student. The future star was even voted class clown and funniest by her 1982 graduating class! She is ZERO Texan, she's just here for the taxes... lack of taxes which is smart but oh my she's not part of us. She's a spook born in the same hospital I was born in Arlington Hospital three months before me. Spook Taxes. Yeah, taxes the taxes and I think this is an important clip we should play and discuss briefly as We kind of tore apart the whole China NBA thing on The Last Show, TPP how Obama was all in with Nike

LeBron James Criticizes Daryl Morey Over China Tweet

NBA star LeBron James criticized Houston Rockets manager Daryl Morey for being "uneducated" about the situation in Hong Kong before tweeting support for protesters. James argued that while freedom of speech exists, there are negative financial and physical ramifications for such statements. Critics accused James of prioritizing his financial interests in China over human rights.

lebron james· daryl morey· china· nba· hong kong· freedom of speech

1:50:59 Where was this going to lead? What was going to happen, Was King James gonna say anything would LeBron come out and make a statement and LeBron James came out made a statement Possibly the shittiest statement he could have made ever. And here it is We all talk about freedom of speech yes we all do have freedom of speech but at times there are ramifications for the negative that can happen When you're not thinking about others, then all you only think about yourself. So I don't believe...I don't want to get into a word or sentence feud with Darryl Moret but i believe he wasn't educated on the situation at hand and any spoke

1:51:39 and so many people could have been harmed, not only financially but physically emotionally spiritually. So just be careful what we tweet and we say or what we do even though yes we do have freedom of speech but there can be a lot of negative that comes with it too Now I watched ESPN, I watched Fox Sports 1. I watched all the newscasts nowhere did I hear anyone deconstruct King James's statement to hold on a second first of all he said Morey that the manager was uneducated owner of Houston Rockets owner Uneducated but he could have hurt people first on the list financially

1:52:26 Not about, you know hurt their feelings or anything. No! Financially then it was actual bodily harm mental spiritual spiritual anguish yeah but financial at the top of the list I'm telling you LeBron James is auditioning to be an owner because he's got what it takes ladies and gentlemen douchebag who cares only about money and shut up about anything else He'll be an owner soon watch And I don't get the, well it's been a foregone conclusion. He is the richest guy in sports but he, I'm surprised he said anything about the uneducated comment

1:53:10 All he said was, I have sympathy for the people of Hong Kong. He didn't even really take it politically. Uneducated? No he was uneducated because... You gotta listen to what LeBron is saying because LeBron is very educated. Okay well you're saying..I'm gonna tell you why okay. He's saying he's uneducated but not as an idiot for saying anything about Hong Kong or about knowing anything about it. He's uneducated by the fact that he doesn't realize Yes That just by saying anything whatsoever is going to cost me money! Yes That's right! That's exactly right It's despicable. It is pretty bad. I mean, how can you still watch the game knowing that this is how they think? They don't give a shit about you! John, you're the big fan of The Warriors. Oh Steph Curry... oh they're all- They don't care. They don't care about you. They do not care. Alright, I'm in total agreement with this thinking and I was watching the Twitters go on it and Chuck D Is like totally involved defending LeBron Really?! Another guy get out of here Chuck D

UK Police Promote International Pronouns Day

A British Chief of Police released a video promoting International Pronouns Day, warning that misgendering can be used as a form of abuse. The hosts shared personal anecdotes about being misgendered due to long hair in the 1970s. The segment included a discussion on nervous tics and the psychological impact of childhood trauma.

1:54:11 That's just so insulting. It's money-grubbing. Ah, shoot! I'm sorry... Damn it! I missed this on the trans segment Can i just take it back to the trans segment even though I closed that out? Okay here is the British Chief of Police as you know in the United Kingdom misgendering someone is illegal Today is International Pronouns Day which is a day particularly important for people who identify as transgender or gender nonconforming Being misgendered can have a huge impact on somebody and their personal well-being. It also can be used as a form of abuse for somebody, and that just isn't right Today is about raising awareness getting people to have conversations And understanding why it is so important to understand the pronouns that somebody wishes to be used for them Have a good day. Oh! Have a good day There you go That's the police. You know when I was a kid during the 60s hmm? You'd have long hair because everybody did yeah

You get that every so often because of the hair. Well it so I should be all upset about this and I should sue them again call the cops cuz that was misgendered yeah That's interesting because when I was a kid, uh...I had long hair.

Apple Safari Browser Sends IP Data to Tencent

Apple admitted that its Safari browser on iOS sends user IP addresses to the Chinese conglomerate Tencent as part of its "Fraudulent Website Warning" feature. While Apple positions itself as a champion of privacy, this data sharing with a Chinese firm has raised security concerns. The feature also utilizes Google Safe Browsing, further compromising user anonymity.

2:01:08 How much is butt porn this week in the Amazon? You can just keep, just do say horrible things. You should. Well you should On iOS and this is very disturbing I've always thought and I have more disturbing news really about Apple I've always kind of considered Apple to be reasonably okay with privacy for their customers you know think about what they What they do when they don't want and not sense. They make a big deal of it for sure They talk a big game. They tell me if they try One of the I'm reading here from I don't know what this article is It's been discovered that Apple which of course often positions itself as a champion in privacy of human rights Is sending some IP addresses from users of its Safari browser on iOS That's your iPad and your iPhone

2:02:06 to Chinese conglomerate Tencent. And Apple admits it does send some user IP addresses, i.e., where you are connected your address of connection which can tell you a lot about the person if their IP address stays consistent Apple admits it sends some user IP addresses to Tencent in the About Safari and Privacy section of its settings, and that's under the title Fraudulent Website Warning. Here is where it gets interesting... Before visiting a website, Safari may send information calculated from the website address to Google Safe Browsing and Tencent Safe Browsing to check if the website is fraudulent

2:02:51 This disqualifies Apple completely. Completely, especially sending it to Google and to the Chiners? I don't know... No one's really saying much about it. I guess everyone loves it but I find that- No one says anything about it because nobody nowadays cares what's going on there just clueless Oh new phone! Let's unbox it Right So there is new OTG phone on the way to me. It is loaded with the follow-up to Copperhead OS which is something with an M I forget what it is and I was reading through the documentation one of our producers are sending it to me so I can test it out here's something I overlooked with the whole

Hardened Android Operating Systems and App Tracking

A new hardened, Google-free Android operating system is being tested to prevent app-to-app communication and tracking. The OS features network switches for individual apps and randomly changes the device's MAC address on every connection. It utilizes open-source repositories like F-Droid and K9 Mail to maintain a high level of user privacy.

android· copperhead os· f-droid· k9 mail· mac address· privacy

2:03:42 Don't be tracked and don't be annoyed Now this this operating system, you know is a complete hardened no Google Android. There's just Android Nothing that has Google on it is in there But it does something that I had not considered That you cannot block at least you cannot block it on any type of operating system except for this one And that is that the apps communicate with each other all the time. And this is not disclosed, it's not really discussed and so this operating system has network switches that you can determine by each individual app should you choose to use apps

2:04:25 But in general it's a complete Google free hardened lockdown. It changes your Mac address, so that your physical network card address randomly on every connection Same yeah same for the cellular Mac Address So it does a lot of these things and I'm going to be trying it out to see I think it may Be a very good replacement for my from my current hardened iPhone 5 and I'll be reporting on that. But, I didn't even consider how much is going on under the hood what these apps are talking to each other consistently and constantly

2:05:06 And so hopefully this will be and this will be something that you could load on your phone too. It uses F-Droid for its application, So these are complete Google free all open source code available I think they use K9 mail as the mail client and i've used that before And that may be a good way to not be tracked and of course because it's not an official operating system supported by big company nor are the apps It'll be so shit to use you won't want to which is the whole point You don't want to use anything on your phone do it on your computer at home. That's fine Don't let anybody track you, but it's not healthy and that's my OTG report for today. That's good enough Yeah alright well My phones often send a drawer

Firing of Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch and State Department Norms

The firing of U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch has become a focal point of the impeachment inquiry. While pundits like David Brooks claim the firing was unprecedented, records show that Donald Trump fired all foreign ambassadors upon his inauguration in 2017. Most ambassadors serve three to four-year terms, and Yovanovitch was nearing the end of her scheduled tenure in May.

marie yovanovitch· ukraine· donald trump· state department· david brooks· ambassadors

2:05:57 Yeah, but when you turn it back on it sends all that information over to Google and Tencent And who knows what else I'll load this new thing in there. I'm good with it yeah You know flash your ROM? Yeah well like no That's where you got you got a flash the ROM to do it. I love the flash the ROM Yes Here's a good I got to say, you know this firing of this Ukrainian ambassador the first we other woman This thing has been getting on my nerves because there's information that's being lost in the shuffle here. And here's one of the clip I have is this is Brooks of Brooks and shield and

2:06:38 You know, the two guys in this particular episode which is last Friday. The two of them went on I agree with him or I agree with him. I agree with you. I agree with you more than like Chip and Dale these two yeah so uh this is Brooks on Ukraine firing. I mean every day it's a blizzard of something. Uh the Ivanovic thing today It made me think like how many other people are involved in this because to fire an ambassador you can't just do it president to ambassador the whole senior echelon of the State Department has to be involved in some way. What? In the firing of a credible, competent ambassador for political reasons I mean how often does that happen without with no resignations and normal administration you get about resignations when without whatever happened Bullshit! Police

2:07:23 Okay, first of all the woman was part she did it you know most of these ambassadors if you look over the list Of all ambassadors they've all they all stay in office about three to four years max Yeah They got a guess is about three and a half years and she was at the end of her term but more importantly as an article that I pulled down from It Brooks is full of crap. This is another lie Friday January 20th, 2017. And this was a report on the day before Trump's inauguration headline Donald Trump has fired all US foreign ambassadors with nobody to replace them. Yeah the day before he got inaugurated he fired

2:08:09 All the ambassadors, and now they've done an article which is in The Independent UK publication. They bitch and moan about the fact that well this happens all the time but... And they usually set these guys up for three to four year period so it's gonna happen with the next guy when he gets in And apparently everybody does this, but they usually have somebody in mind to fill the jobs. Normally patronage... A big donor! Yeah a big donor goes here and there like one of the Barzun I think was the guy who was England he quit like a week before

2:08:46 He was a big donor, a packager, a bundler for Obama. And he quit like a week before Trump got in but they all did except this one woman she stuck around for some reason and she never quit. She finally quitted when her term was kind of up in May it wasn't like you just fired her last week which is what everyone wants to think This is really poorly done in terms of like an execution. It's just untruthful and no, it's just... I don't know if these guys are lying or they're just stupid but everybody knows how ambassadorships work that's exactly the point and then to say oh no the whole State Department has to weigh in this is a career politician please she was apparently looking you know

2:09:33 trolling social media, making sure that no one was saying anything bad which the Republicans and Fox News called spying but you know it's just the whole thing. I'm so tired. I don't want to talk about Ukraine because it's meaningless It doesn't mean anything it's it's that just wanted him get impeachment going and we're right back at the beginning of the show where we started That's all now There was another stream of news I was pointing out earlier, which is these untold new stories You know that you aren't really getting a lot of play like Mexico yeah going from marijuana Yeah, I wanted balance a little bit with them with some American

NBC Internal Investigation Into Matt Lauer Rape Allegations

NBC's Today Show hosts Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb addressed new rape allegations against Matt Lauer detailed in Ronan Farrow's book "Catch and Kill." Megyn Kelly criticized NBC for conducting an internal investigation rather than hiring an independent outside firm. Allegations suggest NBC management knew about Lauer's behavior and suppressed Farrow's reporting on Harvey Weinstein to protect their star anchor.

matt lauer· nbc· savannah guthrie· ronan farrow· megyn kelly· harvey weinstein

2:10:12 stories that are seemingly even more important. And you have to listen to this, this is Savannah Guthrie and Hoda talking about poor Matt Lauer and the fact that he butt-raped some woman that used to work at NBC. This is the big news at NBC! You're always so nuanced... For 12 years now I don't know if any of you guys have ever felt like that? Wow what happened there?! I think something with the thumbs wrong with the beginning your clip, but it starts here. I guess feel like we owe it to our viewers to pause for a moment You know this is shocking and appalling

2:10:59 I honestly don't even know what to say about it. I want to say that we, um...I know it wasn't easy for our colleague Brooke to come forward then It's not easy now and We support her and any women who have come forward with claims And it's just very painful For all of us at NBC and who are at the Today Show You know, it's very very very difficult. I'm looking at you and i'm having a weird moment that we were sitting here just like this two years ago and truth be told Savannah and I did a little prayer upstairs just before just to sort of sort out what we are going to do And um...I think its like you feel like you've known someone for

2:11:40 for 12 years and I don't know if you guys have ever felt like that. You know someone, you feel like you know them inside and out and then all of a sudden a door opens up and it's part of them he didn't know. And we don't know all the facts in this but there are not allegations of an affair they're allegations of crime. And um...I think that's shocking to all of us here who've sat with Matt for many many years so So I think we're going to just sort of continue to process this part of this horrific story. And as you said, our thoughts are with Brooke that it's not easy what she did to come forward. It's not easy at all. No and I think I speak for all of us who are disturbed to our core and we have a commitment to keep you informed and we will continue to do that. If if i may first of

2:12:32 They are our pawns in this game. They're being told to focus entirely on Matt Lauer and not on the actual issue at hand last night Megan Kelly I did not clip it but she showed up for a like half of the show Tucker Carlson tonight. By the way, Megyn Kelly back to short hair looks dynamite! Just I mean and they even showed some old clips of her at you know her daytime show at NBC and she just looks it's Megyn you know she like wow this is what...and she's think she's 48 almost 50? Just fabulous looks great looks happy and she's on the warpath

2:13:17 What she's saying is and this of course is only being discussed now because of Ronan Farrow's book, which I have not read. I have ordered it Which Really go with you know busted open this This rape the story about this rape but Megyn Kelly's issue And I think it's a valid one said look That's exactly what she said She said look many times This happened at Fox with Roger Ailes. Independent outside investigation. Happened over NPR in the Me Too movement, independent outside investigation. Happened at PBS, independent although rigged outside investigation to get rid of Tavis Smiley CBS Les Moonves Charlie... it's in your DNA? Rose!

2:14:12 external investigation. NBC, internal investigation nothing to see here it's all good these women are going to be very very very upset when it turns out that they knew this too. NBC News Knew about this the bosses knew about it They were covering up for Harvey Weinstein because they didn't want the lid to blow off of it Which of course was to protect their star anchor Matt Lauer NBC Not only should they be ashamed themselves. They should be they should start with their own investigation from outside

Chris Hayes Criticizes NBC Management Over Ronan Farrow

MSNBC host Chris Hayes delivered an on-air monologue criticizing his own network's management for failing to air Ronan Farrow's Harvey Weinstein reporting. Hayes argued that the "path of least resistance" led NBC to protect powerful predators. While NBC News leadership denies the claims, Hayes noted that Farrow's story eventually won a Pulitzer Prize after being published by The New Yorker.

chris hayes· nbc news· ronan farrow· harvey weinstein· catch and kill· journalism

2:14:49 the company, have an independent person come in and then really say okay nothing to see here. I think this is just the tip of the iceberg it's much worse! And i bet these women were harassed by Matt Lauer or others as well? I'm sure they were but this brings us to the Chris Hayes rant oh brother you got one of those too beautiful well here we chris hayes this is i think a career killer or should be yeah But Chris Hayes decides that he's going to chime in on this and first of all, he maybe thinks he can get away with like somehow. He blames Trump a little bit. He comes up with some bullshit theme but then he goes into it and he blames NBC for this cover-up because I guess he was good pals with Ronan." After single tweet in support of the Hong Kong protesters by Houston Rockets executive the NBA has

2:15:41 scrambled to lock down any other signs of criticism of the Chinese government, hoping to preserve access to an extremely lucrative and growing market for the sport. Now, of course this kind of shying away from confrontation choosing the path of least resistance is quite familiar in the news because it's what so many Republican members of Congress do every day when confronted with a bile bigotry and rank corruption abuse power with a man who is ahead their party But it's important to note that it is not limited to them. In fact, the insidious destructive force of the path of least resistance is everywhere you look. Heck I feel the tug of it myself as my own news organization is embroiled in a very public controversy over its conduct

2:16:22 As you've probably seen in his new book, Catch and Kill my former colleague Ronan Farrow contends that NBC News slow walked and then ultimately killed his reporting on Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassment and assault because it was intimidated by Weinstein didn't want to cross him. Most distressingly Farrow suggests NBC News was worried about the allegations of sexual assault and harassment against Matt Lauer coming out as a result reporting on Weinstein and desperately wanted to avoid that In Farrell's view, he was unable to break through what was effectively a conspiracy of silence from NBC News management. Now... NBC News vigorously denies this account. Sorry say what? He smacks his lips every time he goes through a new paragraph It is annoying But not the only thing annoying Oh shoot I'm sorry about that somehow the clip dumped out

2:17:13 No. As you've probably seen in his new book Catch and Kill, my former colleague Ronan Farrow contends that NBC News slow-walked and then ultimately killed his reporting on Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassment and assault because it was intimidated by Weinstein didn't want to cross him. Most distressingly Farrow suggests NBC News was worried about the allegations of sexual assault and harassment against Matt Lauer coming out as a result reporting on Weinsteen and desperately wanted to avoid that

2:17:51 In Farrell's view, he was unable to break through what was effectively a conspiracy of silence from NBC News management. Now, NBC News vigorously denies this account. The president of NBC News Noah Wappenheim called Farrell's book a conspiracy theory in a memo sent out today citing an internal NBC investigation that concluded that the extremely upsetting allegations against Lauer were not known internally at NBC. NBC has called any suggestion it did know false and offensive Oppenheim and others have also maintained since Farrell's departure two years ago, the Weinstein story was never broadcast because it lacked sufficient on-the record sourcing even after NBC supported Farrell's assignment for seven months. One thing though is indisputable

2:18:32 Ronan Farrow walked out of NBC News after working on the Weinstein story and within two months published an incredible article, The New Yorker that not only won a Pulitzer but helped trigger a massive social and cultural reckoning that continues to this day. It is the kind of journalism you want to do as a journalist That everyone who works in this business should want to facilitate Of course, there's a reason it took so long for the true story about Weinstein to be told. For the many allegations of him to stay locked in a vault and that is because time and again the path of least resistance for those with power was not cross Weinstein or his army of friends and lawyers Same goes from many other powerful predators that we've come to know about

2:19:13 The path of least resistance is always there, beckoning seductively with an entirely plausible cover story. You've got bigger fish to fry this isn't the hill to die on the story isn't ready but of course it's the very ease of that path that makes it the enemy for kind of work that we as journalists are supposed to do. Sounds like this thing is chickened out with this cult with his path and least resistance thesis But it's still pretty rude if I was the head of news at the company and if you assume they are the douchebags they are, which is obvious. I'd be very irked by this. No! I disagree

2:19:57 You think it was a set up to make them look good? But he's such a weak link in the whole operation. No, but that's why we've got to do something official We've gotta show that we have integrity We gotta show we got tegrity. How do we do that? Well, let's not use Rachel... ...We don't want to besmirch her with any of this No she has to stay pristine She is our star I can't do that Okay how about the other lesbian Yeah well give it him no one cares about him Let him do it They didn't put this on prime time Chris Hayes is not prime time I'm not gonna dispute the possibility that thinking existed I just-I am hoping it didn't

Controversial Kingsman Parody Video Shown at Trump Resort

A violent parody video based on the movie "Kingsman" surfaced, depicting President Trump attacking media outlets and political opponents. The video was reportedly shown at a conference at the Trump National Doral resort, though the campaign denied involvement. The White House Correspondents Association condemned the depiction of violence against journalists.

2:35:19 Oh, there was a... you like the movie Kingsmen? I love it. Oh yes yeah i like one and two sure church scene this is actually a video i think was produced and put out on the yeah i've seen this now i know what video you're talking about yeah it's been around it's not new so they were so they took the scene the church scene from The Kingsmen where a lot of people got get killed in horrific ways and they posted mainstream media logos on the victims, yes. Yeah and a couple of politicians. It's an outrage! It's a huge monster scandal they don't know what to do with but it grounds for impeachment the way I see it. Of course And we do have one in the local news stations that covered it for a minute in 46 is actually a long report Wow and then you can't really show much of the video because

2:36:07 It's so violent. Yes, too harsh on the eyeballs But here's the report on the violent video So you all keep up and now onto a shocking violent and quite frankly offensive videos surfacing in The New York Times report they say this video depicting the president shooting and stabbing opponents And media outlets was shown at Trump to row last week The president's son Donald Trump Jr. was at that event and now we're hearing from him. Let's get right to the local 10s, Amy Viteri in the newsroom with that video receiving wide condemnation on social media Amy Well Louis the video which was reportedly not shown in the main ballroom spoofs a scene from a movie and shows the president shooting his critics and the press Now here is the video that has been shared on social media It is a doctored version of a scene from the movie Kingsman starring Colin Firth

2:36:52 The president's face is superimposed over Firth's character as he shoots and stabs those with superimposed media outlet logos, and some Democratic members of Congress such as Maxine Waters who you saw there a couple moments ago. At one point the late Senator John McCain is depicted being stabbed Now, the White House Correspondents Association also commenting on the video in a statement saying all Americans should condemn this depiction of violence directed toward journalists and the president's political opponents. We call on everybody to denounce this video and affirm that violence has no place in our society A spokesman for Donald Jr. told the New York Times, quote, Don hasn't seen the video and was unaware of its existence until the recent media reports about it but he strongly condemns the type of disgusting and graphic violence purported to be depicted in the video against members of the media regardless a political party we should all reject any and all violence in our politics whether it's directed toward members at the media politicians that family members of politicians or political activists

2:37:52 The president's re-election campaign says the video was not produced by the campaign and that they do not condone violence. Louis? You know, I was talking about our value for value model and what is the time that we entertained you or informed you what is it worth to you And this is a minute in 46 seconds We'll never get that back That is that is the first of all the video's a year old this doctor. It's doctored it's violent You know no one no one had a problem with the with the movie where they were killing churchgoers I'm that is the point I want to make How come the actual movie itself which is in crave? It's funny violent. Yeah, but it's violent Yes Nobody says Jack about that now

MyPillow Advertising and the Future of Independent News

The hosts discussed how Mike "The MyPillow Guy" Lindell is one of the few remaining major advertisers on Tucker Carlson's show. They contrasted traditional media's struggle with the "No Agenda" model, which involves the audience as producers. The segment also highlighted the "NAMS" (No Agenda Hams) radio network as a way for listeners to stay connected outside of mainstream platforms.

2:38:47 And then nobody said anything about the orange bullets. No, you have to wear your cue glasses and you can't understand the bullets. The orange bullets don't work unless you've got Q-vision this needs... You know it won't take much longer But the only loser right now is the mainstream media. The mainstream news has lost all credibility, it will not matter you see the ratings the way they are now it's only going to get less It will no longer be profitable I'm still kind of thankful that Mike the MyPillow guy is keeping Tucker Carlson on the air I think he has interesting guests You know thats always fun to watch Did you see when Trump was in Minnesota He called out Mike because I guess Mike's up in that area

2:39:33 Mike is in the audience. Mike is an American hero and so he calls him out, and it goes on and on about how what a great advertiser and the guy who really knows how to buy ads well He does All over that you know Fox has been so deep platform particularly Tucker Carlson I'm surprised is on the air at all but yeah, I think I think Mike the my pillow guy is And it's a long spot It's a two and half minute spot. It runs every commercial break, that's all they got. That's terrible... it's gross They don't even understand what they're doing We are the future of news And why are we the future of news? I'll tell you why Because we have boots on the ground worldwide Last night we did another NAMS PrepNet If you want to join those and your ham radio operator Join the NAMS That's NAMS

2:40:26 short for no agenda hams Go to k5a cc.com to find out how you can get on the all-star link network There's always 10 to 15 hams who are checking in we have multiple truck drivers We got all kinds of cool reports and people talking amongst themselves This is all something that the mainstream can no longer do. They don't regard the audience as a part of the process! If you want any secret about podcasting, please take it from us You want to involve your audience and... Don't use words like engagement, how's it interactive? No we have producers

2:41:09 Thousands of them. They happen to be the people who listen, they have a stake in the game This is their show! They finance it, they produce it, they help with stories, they help with background, with information Lots of expertise That's what the mainstream is losing out on and there going to... There just big circle jerk everywhere there's mainstream certainly mainstream news And it's going to end. It will eventually just go away and they'll be like, well what happened? I don't understand! We should get some subsidies or something. Something is not good with it. That's right that's what gonna happen. That's what happens in Canada right now they're pushing for subsidies because they can't carry the load. Did you see... It's sad she didn't say skin in the game by the way. No. That phrase really irks me. Yeah I stayed away from that. Senator Blumenthal

Senator Blumenthal Proposes Federal Protection for Journalists

Senator Richard Blumenthal proposed a bill that would make it a federal crime to threaten or attack journalists during news-gathering operations. The legislation broadly defines "news gathering" to include photography, book writing, and digital media. Critics questioned how the law would apply to "Instagram influencers" and whether it would protect citizens from police interference.

richard blumenthal· journalism· federal crime· news gathering· first amendment

2:42:04 had something to say about journalists and I'm just wondering if he really wants to include this in his new protected class. He has a bill in that is going to protect journos. We know from the incidents that have occurred in the past, and in fact some of these attacks on journalists have been fatal, that there is a segment of the population that feels an antipathy toward the press. That they express verbally in threats and also at the extreme physically in direct attacks on the press so what we have to address is the continuing threat of physical violence

2:42:50 whether by guns or other means against the press that may intimidate them in their vital news gathering operation. It is a priority for me to protect news gathering operations no matter what their form and the act that we're proposing would, in fact, establish a federal crime when someone threatens or attacks anyone doing fact gathering or news. operations. That is the purpose of this bill, it would be punishable if it's bodily injury by up to three years serious bodily injury by up to six years and a fine and news gathering is broadly defined to include book writing magazine obviously photography any kind of media that involves communication with the public Hey man back off

2:43:52 I'm an Instagram influencer. I take photographs, I am protected! Hold on a second... This is interesting because there's a number of areas where if you're taking photographs the cops will come over and bash you in the head That's right and then they can go to jail for three years Yeah, this will be a... they're gonna have to deal with that. I have to look at this bill when they finalize it. You know what? That annoys me so much! There's always seeing announcements of bills. I saw the Maxine Waters has announced the bill. It's gone into committee, so we're not allowed to see the text yet which will end homelessness

Governor Greg Abbott Threatens State Intervention in Austin

Texas Governor Greg Abbott threatened to deploy state agencies to clean up homeless camps in Austin if the city council does not reinstate a camping ban by November 1st. Abbott criticized the "hypocrisy" of city leaders who allow camping on public streets but prohibit it at City Hall. He pointed to Dallas as a model for maintaining an orderly process for the homeless population.

greg abbott· austin· homeless camp· city hall· dallas· hygiene

2:44:28 I know. Speaking of which, and this will be my last for today we have another big meeting here in the hamlet of Austin Texas We pretend to be a big-ass city but really just a bunch of country bumpkins here in the Hamlet and with a lot of Lib Joes running around So tonight on The Docket once again is the conversation whether we should rescind and reject and overturn and reinstate the no camping no live ban so that we don't drown in feces and needles like some other places we know. This has to happen before November 1st otherwise the governor of Texas has said I'll come in, In fact it was a big story last night Governor Greg Abbott says he is not bluffing He says if this city doesn't reverse course major state agencies will move into Austin November first

2:45:19 to clean up areas of town where homeless people camp. They include DPS troopers, transportation and state health services KXAN's political reporter Phil Prezen is back with an interview you'll only see here on KXAN I spent three days in Dallas Texas the past few days and covered almost every area downtown Dallas There was not one person out camping, not one person laying on the street. No feces on the ground they have more homeless in Dallas than they have in Austin Texas because they haven't an orderly process They go about making sure that what's going on downtown Austin has not taken place in downtown Dallas They have more than enough money to solve all of their problems and just need a step up and address it and show leadership Second thing then they should

2:46:06 It stopped the hypocrisy. Why did they set one rule for the homeless to be able to roam around any place they want to, but then say oh no not at City Hall? If they really care about the homeless, the first thing that city of Austin should do is to say that City Hall is the place you should come to. Lie around City Hall, come inside as opposed to being exposed to the heat or cold outside. Come inside City Hall! You need access to running water? Come inside City Hall use our water use our plumbing sleep in our parking garage Austin needs to stop the hypocrisy. Wow! Yeah, them's fighting words from Governor Abbott I think there is another piece of evidence that came across my desk from our producers that disturbs me a bit as this may be what is going on in Austin it only may be specific to Austin

CHAPTER 49 / 50 Discussion

Code Next Rezoning Plan and Agenda 21 Concerns

The "Code Next" rezoning plan in Austin is being criticized as an attempt to eliminate single-family home lots in favor of high-density "middle housing." Opponents argue the plan is part of a broader "Agenda 21" strategy to move populations into urban corridors. The proposed changes would allow for four-unit buildings up to 60 feet high in areas previously zoned for single families.

code next· austin· rezoning· affordable housing· agenda 21· single-family homes

2:46:58 So while all this is playing out, while we have the only solution to the homelessness problem according to the Citadel Council are leaders as we call them in Austin. Our leaders! Oh leader Adler please tell me...is to build more affordable housing We have a vote coming up on voting day, election day. I don't think we're voting or won't vote for any officials but we do have a proposition and there's one thing that's been on...I've seen it on the ballot at least three years. I can see this coming go on! It's called Code Next

2:47:43 And Code Next is a complete re- it's failed the two previous years, but now I see the signs in the yards again. Code next! We need code next and it sounds kind of cool. Shit they don't want code next? Code Next is a complete rezoning redistricting plan for the city of Austin Here's the troubling part So they say we don't have enough middle housing, whatever that means. I guess you've got the downtown in the center, you've got your apartment buildings and your condos and then you move out. And on the edges way on the edges is single family homes and in the middle you've got all this other stuff. The zoning has already

2:48:24 had already been changed, as I think we've talked about when the keeper and I were looking for a house. You'd find that there's a rezoning has already taken place in Austin where you can put two homes in their own little mini homeowners association so they're connected by one wall or maybe a common roof or garage and then you can build two homes on a lot intended for a single home Code Next actually would make single-family home lots a thing of history in Austin. And in the corridors that they've outlined on the map, the transition zones and corridors whatever that means is basically everywhere middle housing will be zoned by allowing for

2:49:20 single-family home lots to contain buildings that can house up to four families and can be 60 feet high, and can take up two to five lots. So they want you completely overpopulate all of the surrounding areas of Austin under the auspices we need affordable housing and you know, of course is what's gonna happen with that. It's not going to go to any homeless people but all of Austin could be these horrible fourplexes, triplexes and four-plexes. Fourplexes are fine if they're here in there

2:49:57 This isn't this part of Agenda 21 or some process where they're trying to eliminate single home owners in the United States? Totally, totally part of that. Absolutely! Yeah and this is just a scheme to start that process so screw you homeowners if you have a home too bad... They can forcibly make you change, if your home is X amount of years old. You will not be able to buy a house which I'm okay with people who would buy it tear down and there's a lot of tear-down situations in Austin we've got a lot of these older homes from the turn of the century and if the land is much more valuable than the home you won't be able to tear that down

2:50:43 Unless you're going to build a triplex or quadplex. And this is, it's going to ruin the character of Austin and it's just gonna house tech workers Yeah, tech workers would tech workers are probably the worst because they're just like busy bees and they'll just move into overpriced apartments and shit There's a couple of operations in San Francisco where there's ten people And you know ten people living in a small space with special bunk beds all set up. Yeah only cost $1,000 a month So I'm kind of connecting these two when I feel that they're trying to hold off on this because they want to possibly

2:51:24 Because, you know again Code Next has failed in... How about voting no? Well no but I think they're going to try what I think we'll find out tonight. Tonight we have another the big council city meeting i think what they may be trying to do is to say you know we really want to build affordable housing but we can't! We gotta zone it! You got a vote yes for code next! I'm telling you this has come these guys are so cynically evil would I wouldn't put it past them that's what's going on In the meantime, we got poop on the streets. Some people have boots on the ground and we've got poop on the ground as Governor Abbott said and we'll see what he does and we'll see what happens tonight I will have a report on Sunday's show. Sounds good to me. You want one last clip before you leave? Sure let's do it

CHAPTER 50 / 50 Discussion

Extinction Rebellion Protests and New York City Arrests

Extinction Rebellion protesters were arrested in Times Square after shutting down an intersection to demand action on climate change. A student from NYU expressed fear over a "sixth mass extinction" and called for multiple "Green New Deals." In London, commuters reportedly took matters into their own hands by dragging protesters off the roofs of subway trains.
