Eggsistenial

00:00 And let me in. And all producers and broadcasting live from Opportunity Zone 33 here in the frontier of Austin, Texas. Capital of the drone star state. In the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry! And from Northern Silicon Valley where it appears that California's re-gone into a drought... I'm John Cena. More at crackpotandbuzzkill.com

00:36 Well, I could send some of our rain your way if you want. We've had non-stop for the past week! Oh you should Yeah yeah what's up with you guys? No water? They said winter is over Alright so you get to fire next then Is not a lot of rain in the summer or the winter. I mean, it doesn't grow as many plants so the fire actually fires down. That's better. Okay good but that doesn't mean anything because they just charge us more for the water every time they get a chance to jack up the bill and you guys are I don't know why you stay there John. I don't know, do like the milieu obviously? It's the milieu. Well you say milieu, I say milieu. You say milieu! I say milieu. So... There was debates

01:28 They had these horrible debates and I think that we should go over some of the debate clips right away and do it on as members of the Currie-Dvorak Media Consulting Group. Oh yes, well first of all in the first round of advice would be Mayor Bloomberg don't debate at all stay home but no he didn't listen to our advice Well, I think...I watched him try to he's not what you'd call a naturalist for sure. Remember when Trump did his first debates? He came out saying, I'm a natural at this! You got to step back for a second First of all there was no box and there was no box it was obvious to me because i was looking like alright let's see and they lowered the podiums or podia I guess you would say the lecterns they were lower

02:24 Yeah, yeah. Bernie and Biden had to... Bernie and Biden bowing down. No no no it was so obvious. Smart though good way to get rid of him. Here's what I noticed It was to me obvious that Bloomberg never had any pre-debate coaching or a mock free. No, here's Bloomberg hold my beer I'll do this oh shit give me my beer back i gotta drink it That's exactly what happened he wasn't ready the five questions you should have had a pat answer for Yes and the big one was I thought that when he should've had the Pat answered for and I can tell you what the pan answer is in fact because I've listened to this clip

03:03 as Warren badgered him over the non-disclosure agreements. Oh, I thought you were gonna go with the first one? Well what was the first one? Well right off the bat when she...I mean Warren came out swinging! Why don't you play the first one but my prepared comments are about his inability to answer the nondisclosure. Okay, well I want to follow your prepared comments where's the clip for this That was the bonus clip. Oh, okay it's the same one then gotcha I hope you heard what his defense was i've been nice to some women yeah this is what i meant that just doesn't cut

03:50 Mayor has to stand on his record and what we need to know is exactly what's lurking out there. He has gotten some number of women, dozens who knows? To sign non-disclosure agreements both for sexual harassment and for gender discrimination in the workplace so Mr. Mayor are you willing to release all those women from those nondisclosure agreements so that we can hear their side of the story I've never heard happy people so happy for non-disclosure agreements. What is that by the way? What you just said is the key to Bloomberg getting out of this

04:34 But he never executed it, he just choked. He is not going to beat anybody if he chokes something like this. I have a very few non-disclosure agreements How many is that? None of them accuse me of doing anything other than maybe they didn't like the joke I told and let me just wrong answer is that wanted to keep it quiet and that's up to them they sign those agreements and we'll live with it so wait when you say a deception I just want to be clear some is how many

05:11 And when you say they signed them and they wanted them, if they wish now to speak out and tell their side of the story about what it is that's alleged. That's now okay with you? You're releasing them on television tonight? Senator, no. Is that right? Senator, the company and somebody else in this case a man or woman or could be more than that they decided when they made an agreement I didn't quite understand what he meant. That could be more than that men women Or it could be more does he mean all the other genders you can be is that what he would meant by that? He was trying he was not quick on his feet But I think it's thinking about maybe corporate entities then signed off on something rather yeah sounds to me more like

06:00 transgender non-conforming you know binary I don't know everybody's interest they sign the agreements and that's what we're gonna live with. I'm sorry, no the question is are women bound by being muzzled by you. And you could release them from that immediately because understand, this is not just a question of the mayor's character. This is also a question about electability. We are not going to beat Donald Trump with a man who has who knows how many non-disclosure agreements and the drip drip drip of stories of women saying they have been harassed and discriminated against

06:44 And already some of those NDAs are leaking out, so of course well-timed. What should the mayor have done in this case? Well he should have done a jujitsu move and started by saying well first let me stop you right there and then of course stopped and kept her stopped by saying excuse me excuse me excuse me because she's gonna try to step on him Let me explain what these things are and then gone into a long discussion of what are called non-disparagement agreements, which is what most nondisclosures are. And these could be...there's a lot of them in big companies like mine have a lot of these because they're usually part

07:25 Because a lot of people feel they've been wronged and they're going to make commentary about the company that's going to be negative, is gonna be seen in a negative light. And this is part of their severance package. They won't get the severance package if they want to go do that. This is not unusual. Most big companies – most modern big companies – do this you wouldn't know anything about it Elizabeth, because you've never run a company. You haven't even run a city! You're just a legislative person that just signs and designs laws...you have no idea how things actually work." And that's what most of these things are they're non-discriminatory agreements. You're bringing up really the best point because I think they didn't they say NDAs consistently? Yeah. So the jujitsu move would have been

08:14 Yes, that stands for non-disparagement agreements and let me explain what they are. And by the way a non disparagement agreements are nondisclosures Yeah of course they are but it just sounds much better in fact I got an message from one of our producers who left The Koch Brothers super PAC And he has a non-disparaging agreement, so I can identify him or her. Can identify where the person is from and you know telling me all kinds of stuff about open borders etc., good information but could never go public with that well in today's media it's different of course because the press will just say a person familiar with the matter

08:53 But yeah, non-disparity. That would have been the move! I totally agree. Totally agree. Yeah he would have gotten her off guard she would had tried to interrupt him he could still shut her down using the Kellyanne Conway technique which is the best in that kind of an agreement where you just say excuse me excuse me i'm talking excuse me i'm talking to make it look like she's trying to butt in and then he could have finished at the very end And of course we're not going to release these and you're not going to bully me into doing it. It would be irresponsible." Now, the clip I thought you were gonna start with was this one...

09:31 A billionaire who calls women fat broads and horse-faced lesbians. See, now the only... Well let's listen to how he handled that because he did it! And no I'm not talking about Donald Trump i'm talking about Mayor Bloomberg Democrats are not going to win What? She thought that was clever. That was her idea of doing a, you know, kind of some material. Well that was a joke. That was her opening shot Yeah, and I guess Bloomberg now the moderators didn't even throw it back to Bloomberg which i thought was odd. And Bloomberg didn't demand to have a retort No he wasn't well later in the debate he started holding his hand up like a little boy He should've just said listen

08:53 But yeah, non-disparity. That would have been the move! I totally agree. Totally agree. Yeah he would have gotten her off guard she would had tried to interrupt him he could still shut her down using the Kellyanne Conway technique which is the best in that kind of an agreement where you just say excuse me excuse me i'm talking excuse me i'm talking to make it look like she's trying to butt in and then he could have finished at the very end And of course we're not going to release these and you're not going to bully me into doing it. It would be irresponsible." Now, the clip I thought you were gonna start with was this one...

09:31 A billionaire who calls women fat broads and horse-faced lesbians. See, now the only... Well let's listen to how he handled that because he did it! And no I'm not talking about Donald Trump i'm talking about Mayor Bloomberg Democrats are not going to win What? She thought that was clever. That was her idea of doing a, you know, kind of some material. Well that was a joke. That was her opening shot Yeah, and I guess Bloomberg now the moderators didn't even throw it back to Bloomberg which i thought was odd. And Bloomberg didn't demand to have a retort No he wasn't well later in the debate he started holding his hand up like a little boy He should've just said listen

10:26 That was a descriptor. It has nothing to do with whether she was lesbian or not, and she had a dog face! What's your problem? Yeah that wouldn't work. Oh okay well all right we won't put that in the report But again it is obvious he never did a mock debate He thought it was beneath him I guess...He thought it was such a big shot And then he suffered for it Well- Because he came out the worst on this thing I though his message was very clear The way I would have summarized it Is um I can beat Trump with my money and i'm a competent manager, and I'll bring back stability in order. That was his message and here in fact was his closer which was seven seconds short of the time limit

11:08 Well you can join me at MikeBloomberg.com too if you want, but I'm not asking for any money Look this is a management job and Donald Trump's not a manager This is a job where we have to build teams He doesn't have a team so he goes and makes decisions without knowing what's going on or the implications of what he does We cannot run the railroad this way. This country has to pull together and understand that the people we elect, and it's not just the President of United States they should have experience, they should have credentials They should understand what their doing and the implications thereof And then as a society try to hold them accountable so next time they go before voters

11:51 If they haven't done the job, we shouldn't just say oh nice person gives a good speech. We should say didn't do the job and you're out of here." And I think his message was super clear and people who were expecting to hear that heard that no one else heard it because of course this is a You know, it's a show and it was a much better show than its been in the past. Just to contrast that and then I want to get back to your analysis This is what Bloomberg said on The View And this is a video he has been trying to have scrubbed Let's just all hope that Donald Trump Is a good president of the United States He's our president and we need this country To be run well I didn't vote for him

12:33 But I think, I would not make the mistake Mitch McConnell said when Barack Obama was elected let's make him a one-term president. Let's not make this work and I thought that's our country that's my kids or my grandkids we have to make it work you have an election whoever wins then we got to get behind and work and you can run against somebody else but the difference between America and some other countries in other countries if they lose an election they try to tear down the government they try to have a revolution yes we should sit back and say okay four years from now how do I get my person, my woman or man elected? And that's very difficult.

13:10 He's full of shit. This is what he thought originally and he's right though! Wait, wait let's go back to 2011 What he thought originally this Bloomberg did somebody dredge this old clip up in tooth from 2011 Bloomberg on Trump I know Donald Trump. He's a great guy He doesn't do everything he says but he sure tries and i'm a big fan of Donald trump You know for all the shit? I give google I really appreciate YouTube. I really do it's highly appreciated which brings me to one other gripe, i'm sick and tired of these politicians saying Amazon billions in profit and they now pay zero taxes! That warrants a little bit of explanation because I'm no fan of Amazon practices there are lot of things that don't like

14:02 But they are what they do and they've done consistently since the beginning of the company is plow all profits almost all back into research and development. R&D is a deductible cost, in fact in 2018 this is what everyone's referring to where Amazon paid zero dollars in US federal income tax on 11 billion in pre-tax profit They really only made 2.6 billion and they plowed, you know like three billion in a quarter into research and development now this research and development

14:42 is what makes your Alexa run. Everybody loves the fucking Alexa! You don't want that? You don't want your Ring doorbell, Mergers Acquisitions also another tax benefit depending on how you do it Half the internet runs on Amazon Web Services That is thanks to the research and development cost that they write off of Amazon So...to me It's a great American success story Are they evil corp in doing crappy things? Yeah But that's not about the income tax. I'm sick and tired of it because everyone loves all this, oh look! I just ordered its prime now comes in two hours... Everyone loves all that but we don't want to pay for it to be developed so just stuck in my craw that I'm sick and tired of hearing it. I think you made your point yeah let's back to the debates here I thought they Bernie versus Bloomberg clip was one of the better ones because at this one time where Bloomberg actually stood up

15:41 like a man, although you couldn't tell because he wasn't on his box but still. I believe in democratic socialism for working people not billionaires! What a wonderful country we have the best known socialist in the country happens to be a millionaire with three houses what'd I miss here? Well you'll miss that I Work in Washington, house one. That's the first problem. Live in Burlington house two. That's good! And like thousands of other Vermonters I do have a summer camp forgive me for that but where is your home? Which tax haven do you own your home? New York City thank you very much and I pay all my taxes and I'm happy to do it because i get something for it.

16:33 The only one is Amy Klobuchar. You know, I've got a crush on her She's uh...I like what she does. I would you know she not my kind of president but She said she's a good person and i think she's tough and she wants to run things And I think she made an impact last night it's not that'll help but it made an impact To you Come on man Come on, man. You sound like Biden! Here's the deal... look! So I got to do- so Biden was- I'm team aiming! Oh man he the Adderall kicked in like within 30 seconds of the show starting that was great and so he can't finish his sentence he stops right in the middle of this sentence says LOOK yeah and his eyes go wide goes off on something else And his eyes went all wide it's like a meth head

17:23 So I have two clips. Here's the one where he goes off on climate change, promising jobs that...I think this is the one we promises these are good jobs look look look these are good jobs these are going to pay $50 an hour jobs what? What is he talking about?! Any executive who is engaged in, and by the way minority communities are the communities being most badly hurt by the way in which we deal with climate change. They are the ones become the victims that's where the asthma is that's where the groundwater supply has been polluted That's where people do not have the opportunity to be able to get away from everything from still asbestos on the walls of our schools I have a trillion dollar program for infrastructure

18:07 thousands and thousands of new jobs, not $15 an hour but $50 an hour plus benefits. Unions being able to do that does is it will change the nature look here's the last point I'm on my time is gonna run out here's the last point I want to make just that someone needs to consult Joe he's always doing this he's always saying well I'm almost out of time. He everyone else pushes, pushes up against the deadline he wastes four seconds just on saying that there's something some odd thing that he can't get away from it. No you're wrong oh he

18:44 He's say saying that because he is thought process ran out of material. Look look at this what look That is his moment so he can try to collect himself yeah, no you're right You're right the last point on my time gonna run out here's the last point I want to make to you On day one when I'm elected president, I am going to invite all of the members of the Paris Accord to Washington DC. They make up 85% of the population. problem. They know me, I'm used to dealing with international relations. I will get them up the ant in a big way. Vice President Biden you didn't answer to my questions. What would you do with these companies that are responsible for the destruction of our planet? What would i do with them? I would make sure they number one stop number two demonstrate

19:33 I'm the president. Stop! Just please stop, just no stop." Stop number two if you demonstrate that they in fact have done things already that are bad and they've been lying they should be able to be sued they should be able to be held personally accountable and not only the company but the stockholders but the CEOs of those companies. They should be engaged it's a little bit It's a little bit like, look this is the industries we should be able to sue. We should go after just like we did the drug companies just like we did with the tobacco companies only company where you can't go after are gun manufacturers because my buddy here but... Now hold on what executives from drug companies have really gone to jail?

20:17 Like Pharma Boy? Okay, we got one. We got Pharma Boy. He had one douchebag everybody made a point of. Yeah and then... He's a scapegoat! What Wall Street bankers and bank presidents went to address Jamie Dimon today? Where did they go to jail for the collapse in 2008? There was nothing peaceful or crap that guy but look But look, here's the deal. Look, he'll call in once and we start talking about blah blah blah...look! Right in the middle of a sentence you drops it.

20:53 The other, I'm sorry. But the other one I have... Yeah go ahead. He must just go to this is he goes off on and somehow through his look transitions Look! He hands up going off on high-speed rail which yeah hold on a second We've gone back to 2009 They want their term back Yeah, it's unbelievable. What you might not know is that Las Vegas and Reno are the vibrant economic engines for the state of Nevada and are also two of the fastest warming cities in them in the country Before he even gets into that when I heard this question...I was thinking wait a minute Where does Las Vegas get its power from? It's from the Boulder Dam mostly. The dam! Yes

21:38 The dam is right there, and it's the greenest kind of... well I mean there's debate over dams but... Oh they're trying to get rid of most of these dams. It's incredibly efficient for a generation and then this jamoke comes in about solar panels and shit. In certain months of the year the heat is already an emergency situation for residents and tourists walking up and down the strip So I'm going to start with you, Mr. Vice President What specific policies would you implement that would keep Las Vegas and Reno livable but also not hurt those economies? It is the existential threat humanity faces... global warming. You have a facility where one of the largest solar panel arrays in the world

22:25 And when the fourth stage is completed, they will be able to take care of 60 thousand homes for every single bit of their needs. What I would do is number one work on providing the 47 billion dollars we have for tech and making sure that we find answers is provide a way to transmit that wind and solar energy across the network in the United States. Invest in battery technology I would immediately reinstate all of the elimination of what Trump has eliminated in terms of EPA, I would secondly make sure that we had 500 thousand new charging stations and every new highway rebuilt in the United States America or repaired. I would make sure that once again made sure that we got the mileage standards back up which would have saved over 12 billion barrels

23:19 of oil had he not walked away from it. And I would invest in rail, in rail. Rail can take hundreds of thousands millions of cars off the road if you have high-speed rail." There is no animus for high speed rail! The last project which Obama touted by the way which was great because you wouldn't have to take your shoes off... High speed rail? It was that's the whole thing In California, it's a massive failure. Oh and they're still trying to pull out of it. It's going to cost them an additional billion apparently. More than that probably. That's the latest announced amount. Meanwhile Trump was in

24:07 Arizona with his counter-programming as it's now known in the biz. Now they have a new member of the crew, Mini Mike and I hear he is getting pounded tonight you know he is in at the bank He's getting pounded! He's gettin' pounded! Oh my goodness Okay so do we have another clip? I'm not sure let me see While your looking for that on climate change just real quick I came up with a new one I want to try this on ya Can you be someone who's all in on climate change for this test? Very easily. Hey, about climate change do you think that we have a population problem with too many people on earth? Of course! Okay, do you think that climate change is man-made? Absolutely Perfect

24:59 If we do nothing, we'll kill a couple billion. Problem solved! Oh that's just...that's kind of a specious way of looking at it? The problem isn't solved because you're not going to kill a couple billion. We have a serious problem and your're just joking about it No Do you think this is funny?! You think that this existential threat which could wipe out our children's children Yes my way is much better. Yes my ways much better. We need to get..you want these people gone anyway so let them die from climate change They're brown anyway, who cares? Oh that didn't work. I'm never talking to you again! Okay it needs work i'll work on it 500 000 charging stations yeah which are powered by solar panels apparently can you imagine if you have this is what i've been waiting for the electric phenomenon to kick into high gear so at a gas station before big weekend people are lined up to get gasoline

26:02 And there's all, maybe say at a Costco there's maybe five cars might be lined up. Right Well if you have to wait an hour to two to three hours to do the charging how long do you think that line would be? Hey man! That's not true! A Tesla has a supercharger it's only 45 minutes Can you imagine if it took 45 minutes to fill your tank instead of 5? How long that line would be. Well, you remember the former New York banker tried to live like that for a while when he had his Tesla P 90 or 80 I think and we traded that one week because of a distance he had to go but he has a business in Houston and he can't quite make Houston and back on a full charge. And he would try and convince me like no it's great you know, I drive in about 15 minutes outside of Houston, I pull over into the supercharging station, I read the paper, have a cup of coffee while the car is charging... That lasted about two months

27:00 And then he was all pissed off about it because people have things to do. This idea, I think will lower our GDP by two full points just from time wasting alone. So, I think...I'm not gonna argue that. At least when you're on the train and you're reading the newspaper, you're moving! Yeah, there's something happening. So, I picked this little 17-second thing out of that Biden clip about the existential threat and I swear he says egg-sessential Oh where is this? Mike Allen Lewis says debate's eggsessential

27:43 It will be irreparable damage done, not just to Nevada. Oh I'm sorry No, this is right. This is the right clip but it was brain not bite. There will be irreparable damage done not just to Nevada Not just Vermont or Massachusetts But to the entire world Joe said it right this is an existential threat You know what that means? Yeah It's bad for eggs That means we're fighting for the future of this planet I love how all of these people except for a couple stragglers there will be close to 90 by the time the world is supposed to blow up. They don't give a crap, they can promise anything they want existential existential life for Bernie 500 thousand charging stations Life for Bernie is an existential threat because he doesn't have that many years left I don't want to be coy about it but

28:38 sick and tired of it. All right, let me now I found something interesting this morning as I was going through a couple of clips I wanted to share they had you know the final round where everybody does their little pitch we already heard Bloomberg's but just before that they did something that they promised wouldn't happen in the debates which was a yes or no question And every NBC-related video site, and of course I scoured YouTube eventually found what i was looking for but it's hard to find because the official NBC online video does not include because they had a commercial break does not include the question about the convention.

29:26 And that is very telling to me and I think it's the most important part of what went down during this debate. Here it is. Also winning the Senate races in Arizona, and in Colorado and beyond... What the hell was this? Shit did I clip the wrong thing damnit! ...is bigger than any... Join me at Amy Clubhouse for some money No its a completely wrong Completely wrong clip. I don't think so, no this is what this is the missing part of the online video but this is not the piece I wanted hold on. No. So damn it!

30:14 This was the... I'm pissed off about this. Yeah, this happens once in a while. It happened to me! Well what it was the question was do we follow the rules of the convention which means you have to have 1,990 delegates in order to win the nomination Or, since it looks like as was intended it's impossible for any one person to get that total amount. See Mayor Pete Alone who through the eye of a fracas stole an extra delegate in my mind he stole it

30:51 Or should the person with the most delegates win? And he even said, oh Bernie you go last. And went down the line every single one of them yes or no yeah we should follow the rules because Bernie is going to get screwed they all admitted it right there on stage done I'm so upset that I don't have this clip. Okay, here's the deal look look here's the deal look. I found the clip! I found it. I found the raw video. Hold on a second why is this not? We're gonna patch it straight in we're gonna do it live! Yeah we're gonna do it live when I fucking around all right hold on.

31:33 We are less than two weeks away from a national primary. And I want to ask all of you this simple question, there's very good chance none of you are going to have enough delegates to the Democratic National Convention to clinch this nomination. Okay? If that happens, I want all of your opinions on this should the person with most delegates at the end of his primary season be the nominee even if they are short a majority Senator Sanders i'm gonna let you go last year because I know your view on this so instead I will start with you Mayor Bloomberg Whatever the rules of the Democratic Party are, they should be followed. And if they have a process which I believe they do... Hey! I'm trying to do this yesterday and I don't make it fast. So you want the convention to work its will? Yes

32:17 Senator Warren. But a convention working as well means that people have the delegates that are pledged to them and they keep those delegates until you come to the convention, all of the people. Should the leading person? No. Okay. All righty Vice President Biden? Play by the rules Yes or no, leading person with the delegate should they be the nominee or not? No let the process work its way out Mayor Buttigieg Not necessarily, not till there's a jury Senator Klobuchar Let the process work Senator Sanders Well the process includes 500 superdelegates on this second ballot So I think that the will of the people should prevail. Yes, thank you guys. Should become the nominee. Five no's and a yes! So they promised they wouldn't do that anymore and it's but its note... You heard the crappy clip before? It's because they cut it out. It's not available on the NBC video archives even though they say full debate watch it all here Well, that's interesting Yeah yeah That's what-that's the great catch for today

33:14 It's not that you caught the clip, what you caught was NBC reverse changing history. Yeah well trying to but what was the point? Well, because I thought it wouldn't piss off all the Bernie bros. Yeah and then it looks bad to tear down the convention center. Bernie doesn't get in. I'm not sure exactly what is a possibility? I mean this crazy woman. I got this clip from her shama saw want who Who goes on, this is her introduction to Bernie in Seattle. She was the keynote as it were the preliminary to Bernie coming I had to take a lot out because there was too these long length of clauses This was his Tacoma Dome appearance? Yeah believe so yes 17 thousand people I mean that's not... The capacity is 23 or something but that's not bad and zero coverage! Zero! Well they did this was covered

34:13 Did they mention how many people were there? No, this was no. But they had this woman here. Let's play the clip. As Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said last month... Oh yeah! As she said last month, in any other country Joe Biden and I would not be in the same party So we need to elect Bernie And We need a new party of working people To win Hold on, I know who this is. We have a clip of her Yeah, listen this is her. Medicare for all! Yes? Don't eat me Bojyd and you're scary so scary It's her To end the racist mass incarceration system And to win Green New Deal to avoid climate catastrophe And a powerful socialist movement to end all capitalist oppression and exploitation Our immediate task

35:21 and win for Bernie to prevent the elite from rigging the primary against him. That's why my organization, Socialist Alternative is saying for a Milwaukee to have Bernie's back! My friends history is calling on us are we ready? It is so interesting to see how the M5M, even Bloomberg's campaign manager I think I saw. Oh yeah these guys are just like the Trump supporters! Yeah they're violent and nuts Bernie bros are no good. They were that way in 2016 when Trump tried to go to Chicago and give a speech you know one of his big rallies it was the Bernie bros who started punching people and prevented him from even showing up

36:24 Yeah, you know he has a bunch of thugs working for him and I mean that guy that punk that was on that Veritas video said yeah we're gonna burn down Milwaukee if they don't give it to him. Burn, burn brother! Be on fire! A couple of observations from our producers Dame Jamie says Bloomberg wasn't wearing his normal hearing aids and I feel remiss...I should have caught that And I don't know if he had different ones or the ones that go all the way in the ear are not considered very good. So maybe at none, i'm not sure what uh what that was about. Uh Damian Dame Jamie says when he's attacked Bloomberg will eye roll If he suppresses the role He grips the podium but I saw that too That's a great tell you can see as the grip and it was never ending gripping gripping gripping um There was one thing in the and I recently had a

37:16 A short conversation with someone about this very topic, although not packaged in this way. When Mayor Pete said something which was just like... I don't know It felt really odd the way he said it and the facts also wouldn't a fact check him on this if we really want to deliver Less inequality in this country, then we got to start with the tax code We've got to start with investments in how people are able to live the American dream Which is in serious? Serious decline matter of fact last time I checked the list of countries to live out The American Dream in other words to be born at the bottom and come out at the top. We're not even in the Top Ten

37:53 Number one place to live out the American dream right now is Denmark. Okay, now The number one place to live out the American dream ladies and gentlemen is now Denmark this went from it's the happiest It's when from its the happiest place on earth Which can possibly be true since their number four on the list of most people on antidepressants United States, we kill it obviously but they're number four so in that regard they're getting close to the American dream of being high all the time legally. But as one of our producers pointed out you know and Bernie does a lot of this too... Denmark! Denmark!!

38:34 Bernie and Mayor Pete should know that under all governments, right or left in Denmark for years stop question and empty your pocket areas can be called by the police at any time and have been. This is mainly done in cases of gang warfare and or terror read immigrants issues So how is that a great country if it's such a horrible thing to stop and frisk, and Denmark has it? Or is that part of the American dream? These guys... Michael Moore. Michael Moore has a podcast

39:13 Yeah, where he talks like a choice the case you're hoping to get it on PBS. Yes I'd be perfect no and NPR I'd be here. I'm sorry what? And if not in PR maybe yeah Maybe I could be on the luminary or wondery or one of those fine podcast networks and He gave us I think the definitive end-of-show ISO Michael Bloomberg is a terrorist Top that. Top that! I don't even know if I have it. Top that, no way this is the best. Michael Bloomberg is a terrorist. Michael Bloomberg is a terrorist. NPR. I'm Michael Moore with my podcast Okay the only one I have... My ISO comes from one of the clips and I'll just play it cold and this is Drugged. Drugged by a Tainted Cupcake

40:13 Hmm tough call Very very tough call very tough called drugged by a tainted cupcake gosh I have to admit. I like it Let's try let's try back-To-back drugged by a tainted cupcake Michael Bloomberg is a terrorist I can't decide. It's a toss-up. It is it's awesome. It's a toss up We'll let the trolls decide what we should do there Yeah, so um III thought this stage was nice That was it much more Vegas style to the flag of course no There's no half flag hanging but they had stripes and stars and all kinds of stuff that look really good People like the cupcake actually That's what the trolls are saying So I guess we have to go with them contained detained cupcake

41:01 Well, keep the other one as an evergreen because it's usable. Here is the status of just one Bernie. This is the Bernie update because Bernie really is the focus and this is ABC's rundown and this is the Bernie update In California today, the line to see Bernie Sanders snaked for blocks I hear the establishment saying oh Bernie can't win the election Take a look at this crowd today and tell me we can't win the election. Sanders well aware he's now facing a new kind of challenge, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg spending $380 million dollars and counting to blanket the airwaves with ads. Mayor Bloomberg with all his money will not create the kind of excitement and energy we need to have the voter turnout we must have to defeat Donald Trump

42:01 Bloomberg firing back that the Sanders campaign brings a different negative kind of energy, releasing a video highlighting the online anger of so-called Bernie bros. Bloomberg tweeting that when it comes to beating Trump this type of energy is not going to get us there The billionaire's Democratic rivals say now its high time he come out from behind his campaign ads He has to answer questions and I think he should be on that debate stage which eventually will be because I can't beat him on the airwaves, but i can beat him on the debate stage. As Bloomberg's poll numbers rise his past drawing new scrutiny including his treatment of women in the workplace and allegations of sexist and crude comments reported by multiple outlets including ABC News a Washington Post investigation making waves this weekend prompting Bloomberg to tweet...

42:55 their advice and their contributions. Bloomberg says he's championed women, do you think he still needs to answer for these allegations? Yes but he needs to answer for these allegations. You're not championing women when you have non-disclosure agreements so they can't tell their side of a story I want hear from Mike Bloomberg that he is going to let these women talk un-Muslim and let's find out what's really happening. Alright okay so right there right there what That little clip with her was the day before the debates. Bloomberg's people should have saw that thing coming a mile away, they didn't! So they don't care and this is the conversation that the mainstream will not have

43:37 Bloomberg, as I said, here's my money. I'm going to do everything I can and you should take me and my money because I am a competent manager." That is his entire message and everything else he doesn't even care about it. It really doesn't care. I personally am extremely happy he's doing this because for all the years of hearing Citizens United and you know campaign finance reform and all this Koch brothers, by the way Koch brothers are massively anti-Trump Yes, they have been from the very beginning. So for all of that and all the bitching and moaning I would... this is a good test! Can you actually go with unlimited funds which is not true but can you go with a lot of money? And can you subsequently buy the presidency? I think not but let's see how it plays out. No one can discuss this for a lot of the reasons mentioned in your

44:39 excellent essay that you sent out with the newsletter and to that point there was a lot of Bloomberg slamming right after the debate. I immediately went to MSNBC, Bloomberg no good useless down one channel Fox Trump won of course okay thanks Fox CNN slamming Bloomberg The only thing i can contemplate here is that we have Super Tuesday two weeks away Two weeks, two and a half weeks. And March 3rd? Yeah the media buys are already in so he's stacked you know this not planning any more buys at this point you're done your locked and loaded they've got their money everything is in all they have to do was fulfill and then they'll see because it was they definitely were not kowtowing they were happy to slam him down and kind of did a different version of yeah little bit marginalizing almost

45:37 And that was a little surprising. I believe, and still think this is true the guys who do the loudest complaining about Bloomberg are the guys who got the least amount of money from Bloomberg. Oh this is...I hear you on that yeah CNN's not getting a big buy MSNBC nothing there's nothing there so you really think it's the local media? The local media is doing, getting most of the money and then the big networks. ABC NBC CBS then after that it's just a scattered around it would be more later but these guys are pretty much shooting themselves in the foot I'm sure their sales guys if I'm a sales guy working at CNN yeah I'm not happy with this coverage why are we blasting this guy? Why don't we just see what happens

46:22 Because there's some money for us in this. And this is what it's really all about, these organizations aren't... they don't do what we do where we actually literally have the people that listen or the same people that produce and sponsor the show. They are dependent on these big ad buys and the sales guys can't be happy." I can imagine that meeting on Monday? We have a problem people So we have Nevada and South Carolina coming up. Maybe you still believe Joe Biden will win South Carolina, which I think he will be second but we'll see if he's second it wouldn't surprise me well that's not winning

47:07 No, I said it wouldn't surprise me but he...I don't think he will come in second. Okay But i'm not going to be oh my god! He came in second? Not gonna be that shocked because there's you know Bernie is getting momentum and South Carolina has got a good message Everybody right now... Free stuff Everybody right now is hyper focused on ADOS American Descendants of Slavery commonly known as black and brown communities or black-and-brown communities people of color whatever they choose for non offensive phrases they think and not on the debate stage but still trying his best Tom Steyer yes he's still in the race and he thinks he knows what to do. When you talk about trying to even the playing field with reparations something that you said use support how do you repair it? Do you say that The Divide is about education or are you talking about financial restitution writing checks

47:59 Well what I've said Margaret is this and you're right, I am the only candidate running for president who will say that he or she is for reparations. But what I've also said is this the way to figure out the correct solution in this case is I would have a formal commission on race starting the first day of my presidency Can you tell the story of the more than 400 years that African Americans have been here? This is completely the wrong message. We just had a reparations commission, and the minute you say I'm all for reparations but we're gonna have a commission from day one... non-starter goodbye! You're not happening. Trump has his surrogates out on Fox & Friends

48:43 the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and here's her message to the Trump voters. So respond to that comment by Pete Buttigieg, no one is feeling the pain more than black Americans right now? I am an African American woman of 69 years old, and almost everyone that i'm speaking with whether they're Republican Democrat Independent some don't vote various perspectives However, people are saying our wages are up. Our families being united. I was on an interview with Alice Johnson recently and she was talking about her experience of coming home and being reunited with her family. The second step... first step, second chance is the second step.

49:29 Second chances is moving so quickly that we are seeing so many gains in the African-American community. Some people say, well he president Trump says what do you have to lose? But he certainly has shown us what we have to gain So people are not suffering in the manner that was just stated I'll have to ask Mo what impact Alveda King has in the community Meanwhile, a long predicted person on the scene appeared on where else? The View. And there's nothing like a little Stacey Abrams to spice it up! A lot of people want to see you on that ticket. First as vice president...

50:15 And you said, you know that any Democratic candidate can come and talk to you about being VP. Explain to people why you say this? Okay so the last the first time I was on here mm-hmm I got the question about running as VP during the primary and I very apparently famously said no because you don't she's regretting it run for second in a primary however because that conversation started I'm now getting the question a lot from folks and the answer is of course i would be honored to run for vice president with the nominee

50:50 It's a bit disconcerting because it seems really obnoxious for me to say that out loud since I'm not, you know no one has asked me. But what i want people to understand is that... You're funny act in the media. Exactly! The issue as a woman of color especially as black This is an unusual position to be in for someone to be considered possibly the next vice president. And it would be doing a disservice to every woman of color, every woman of ambition, every child who wants to think beyond their known space for me to say no or pretend oh I don't want it. Of course I want it! Of course I want to serve America and of course I want to be a patriot

51:29 and do this work. And so I say yes! Yes, very good. You also see yourself running as president too? Oh absolutely at some point. When someone starts out in the mail room and says I want to be the CEO we never go. Oh my gosh, that's too much ambition Why should we not want someone to have the power to fix? The problems and the brokenness that we have no still Still in play in play for a VP spot. I would say That's what she was doing. That's what you do She was forced folks be asking just like Hillary lots of pressure lots of lots of pressure

52:06 Mayor Pete, on the other hand... I want to stop for a second and mention so when people listen to that clip, the previous clip, Steyer. It's loaded to the gills with performatives. Oh, Steyer or Abrams? Tom Steyer. They ask him what do you think about this and he says well what I've said about it is... Yeah he never says what he thinks, he says what I've said about it. Good point good catch Anyway, I will say I am a little more impressed with Mayor Pete not as a president but as an animatron. He has gotten really good with his replies and so good in fact you know Amy team Amy Klobuchar called him out and said yeah Yeah You've got everything rehearsed now. You've got all these comeback lines, man, but your area

53:01 But he was asked the so-called Bill Maher question at the CNN Town Hall, and I thought he answered it appropriately. I want to ask the Bill Maher question in one channel. You know what it is? I'm a little worried about this. Let's see which Bill Maher question you have in mind! So, it's November people who just won the election and the current occupant says No, this is all a hoax. The Senate agrees with them Fox News starts going on about it What does president elect Buttigieg do about this? Yeah when he doesn't want to leave so Well what I said Bill Mars was gonna be pretty awkward when Chaston and I are moving in our furniture. I Mean if you won't leave I guess if she's willing to do chores we could work something out but

53:51 I'm liking Poot. I like him what he's doing here That was professionally written of course it was professionally written, but he's nailing it He's got some professionals on his side Bloomberg should get some joke writers now we have the Nevada caucus on Saturday if I'm correct I think the results come in on Saturday. The results come in on Saturday, yeah because they have early voting this year and based upon the Iowa results which to my knowledge still have not 100% been reported and everyone just giving up on it oh well we'll take the L but PUT did get an extra delicate there somehow magically Nevada would you believe it?

54:40 was all set to do their caucus and early voting caucus with the same app. Yeah, you know this is well known but they've come up with a fix This is one of the things Christina that has confused me a little bit So in Iowa there was an this isn't AP podcast in case you're wondering about these sound and professionalism That didn't work Nevada decided not to use the app. So they're using what they're calling a tool What is the tool? And is it really just another app or Well, yes. Certainly semantics what it is is a Google form and so what we know is that it's going to come preloaded on two iPads that are going to be distributed to the precinct captains on the day of the caucus on February 22nd this Saturday

55:34 preloaded into the Google form that they will be entering information is information about early voting. So Nevada is very interesting in the fact that we're trying to be as accessible by having and offering early voting But it's a very complicated and complex step. I know it's irritating to listen to, but I think this is good information for us that Iowa didn't attempt they just did the in-person caucuses so In this Google form It's going to have preloaded information for each precinct on early voters and their preference

56:17 So the precinct captains, as they oversee the caucus process on Saturday will be utilizing this Google form and it's going to have all this information. It's gonna calculate viability for the presidential candidates and if they're going to use this to submit results to the state party. So basically we've taken a caucus system, which is already kind of complicated and made it even more complicated by adding in early voting beforehand? Absolutely! And that's where a lot of concern from volunteers—and we've heard it from some campaigns as well

56:55 is how that integration is going to happen, particularly as the caucus moves into later stages where there can be realignment of voters to different candidates. After the initial preference vote is taken and so there's still not a lot of good answers about how that's all going to work and The volunteers that I've spoken to have said that's a particular concern. Yeah alert alert Scam ahead, sorry Google Forms

57:35 That's how it's going to be done? Google Forms. A part of Google Docs! Yeah This is insanity How... You know, by the way, Google Docs does go down I cannot believe- I don't know why they use it Well but I see all the time, you know, Google Docs down Just like when Slack goes down All offices around the world shut down until it comes back People rely on Google Docs It goes out Sure it does But besides that, you're gonna have the Google be the back end for this? I find it unacceptable. If i was in the caucus, I'd be very angry about this and they're just rolling out... I think that they're going to scam something again! It's good we can have another problem Biden for Nevada yeah sure sure I found..I cannot believe it You've had years to prepare for this

58:36 And even since Iowa, there was enough time to come up with something better than Google Forms preloaded on an iPad. Oy oy oy! I don't know... That's not the way I understood it supposed to work anyway What did you understand? Well that they have these little groups They meet up and decide on something The one guy represents the whole crowd I represent 10 thousand votes for this little caucusing group and we're putting our vote for Biden And they'll put that into the Google form I don't know, what? I didn't know about the Google form but i guess they do that now. But this is you know this reminds me of this half- This is a cycle in the Democratic Party. This one when I was a kid

59:20 They had a big, see that's when the primaries first started getting developed because in the olden days before I was a little kid back I guess at 30s 40s 50s it was always the so-called and they used to use this term until probably the term maybe died out around the early 90s or late 80s or even late 70s. smoke-filled room. Yeah, but smoke filled room in the back where we're making deals. And so they had this determined how many delegates go to which candidate and it comes out of a... The door opens of a smoke filled room with a bunch of guys smoking cigars and they decide all their votes are going to Biden. Yes. So the Democrat Party got all irked about this because it was like oh geez! This is terrible these smoke filled rooms We don't know what's going on It's not transparent

1:00:10 And so then they split off into doing primaries on the one hand and caucuses on the other. Smoke-filled rooms are gone now, they're getting rid of the caucuses that's what's happening now This is at the end of the caucus this may be the last time everyone's got to do primary there's more money into primary Yes yes it's an anachronism It's very complicated it's not the simple okay I get it No one gets it Yeah its dumb Well, I don't know if it's dumb. It's just people are dumb they're too dumb to...I think it's really an interesting system because its real politicking on the spot by the people who are you know trying to convince others come over to my guy and your guys no chance or your lady has no chance will do that kind of like that! Its a real boots-on-the-ground type experience Smoke filled rooms is same thing

1:01:01 Well, isn't that kind of what America is? Let's be honest. A smoke-filled room? We're one big smoke filled room. Smokeless filled room! Yes and with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the sea in existential threat known as climate change John C Dvorak Well in the morning to you, Mr. Adam Curry also in the morning all boots on the ground feet near subs and the water subs in the water dead Feet there and it's a old dames and knights out there some look here's the deal In the morning to our trolls in the troll room no agenda stream calm counting them right as we speak We have 1072 trolls all at attention today good to have you here Thank you that's where you can hear the show live participate in the troll room It's 24-7 so there's always some trolling to be done And we need you

1:01:54 If you're a troll, head over to noagendastream.com Big in the morning to Darren O'Neill scored excellent artwork for episode 1217 The title of that was The Elders and it was our podcast award And it made me... when I saw this because It's the podcast award, it's a gold ribbon. It says podcast awards best producers plural and I thought yeah that is exactly the problem with podcast awards if done properly every podcast has producers and not listeners If it's proper otherwise just another NPR thing as far as I'm concerned There's no stage big enough to hold all of our producers they don't have enough trophies

1:02:39 It could never happen. So we cannot compete in these types of contests, but Darren thank you very much Darren has just been on a tear with with the art always in competition such a huge Supporter of the show doing the pre stream as well before what happened? I was just giving him a salute yeah indeed I was going to say something about the art generator. Sir Paul Couture is on the scene, yes he sent a couple of notes and it looks like the Art Generator is almost fixed or will soon be fixed. New accounts can already be created

1:03:22 And we really appreciate it because what an incredible resource that is for our producers who like to submit art, for the album art so we have something fresh new. Something that pops and is fun that gets attention in all those podcast apps. It's also cool to go through it look at all of the historical stuff I mean it is a history of the world in pictures in a way kind of Hope someone's like this one doesn't make a mention He says it would also be placing the entire library of artwork and new submissions on a CDN for better performance It should be much easier for other devs to contribute additions fixes etc. Yeah within the public git repository For the generator, and there will also be a weekly backup again with user info scrubbed of the entire library that will allow anyone to download a current copy or

1:04:16 Currently 15,177 art submissions. A little over 13 gigs of art and cloned in the code base and placed on any server with PHP 7.2 and SQL database for their own flavor choice run a few scripts and have a clone up and running Yeah, that's that is really fantastic and it's and I appreciate it because throughout the years and Paul has been Producing on the you know things for the show for a long time People always have great intentions start something up And then you know it kind of fades breaks or stuff happens for instance being it dot IO search dot

1:04:56 and a show notes calm just go to being it dot IO hasn't updated since the changeover to 2020. So, it's not current in indexing there's lots of things that kind of fall by the wayside and you know I try prod people and ask them to help, and you know it is part of the challenge of the model that we've chosen but on the other hand man I'm glad we did it because no way could we have just done this first hour on mainstream. The studio would have been locked down would have been gassed. Gassed! Smoke coming in underneath the door sills. Gas those guys think we can't have this shit gas em' gas em', I tell ya

1:05:37 As part of our value for value model, and since you started to reiterate that earlier the most interesting part of how we finance the operation of the show is by asking a simple question. If you've listened to two and a half, three hours of our program what kind of value did you get for it? And I'll give you comparison if you go to the movies this weekend you'll take a date your wife your husband whatever hour and a half you get popcorn maybe drink its 50 bucks its just going to cost around fifty bucks hour and a half, 50 bucks. Listening to our show did you get the same value? Equal value? Less value?" And when you ask people to determine value for themselves the results are often surprising and somehow that makes the model work and I think we should thank some of our donors who are helping us out for today

1:06:27 Starting with Sir Otaku, the Duke of Northeast Texas and the Red River Valley came in at the top of the list. And he's actually a show number member. He gave us 1218 which is Show 1218 from Louisville Texas. Case in point! What does he say? To start a barbecue competition season for me and I need to get I need to up my karma so I have a great competition, competitive season. What he says is he wants $1200 worth of karma. So why not get his show credit? Some might say it's cheating to ask for karma from the best podcast in the universe but if you ask me it's just hedging your bets when the difference between first and last place relies on a single bite. Yes this is true when you do food cooking competitions

1:07:21 Adam, I'll be competing in your neck of the woods on April 4th at the Cedar Fest BBQ Cook-Off in Cedar Park Texas. If you and The Keeper want to come by on a Saturday afternoon hangout and have some great Q! Can I get some JCD mac and cheese karma with a little girl yay 73s k5 vz sir otaku the Duke of Northeast Texas and the Red River Valley. Yeah, 73's kilo 5 alpha Charlie Charlie what is Q barbecue? Oh Gee, I've never never heard it abbreviated like that living in Africa. They don't say they don't say that I've never heard that in Texas

1:08:03 Sure, they do.

Yeah, for tips or you want to give him tips? I don't have any tips for him on brisket. I got tips for everything but brisket! I've had nothing but trouble cooking brisket the way they do it in Texas and i think a lot of has to that can get the right brisket here. I don't have fatty enough brisket

1:08:53 I've done it. I've cooked for 12 hours, I've used pecan shells, I've done all these things and I still can't get it to be a good product." Anyway onwards to Baron Walkman.

My blog fakeologist dot com is all about exposing media fakery every major media event is a hyper realistic drill portrayed as real including 9 11 as shown in the blockbuster YouTube movie September Clues Oh that is a pretty good one I've also got research that shows nuclear science is based on science fakery, which is good news if you believe in nuclear weapons. Have you ever considered that nukes were fake? How about this right after the Rod Adams donation... This is great! It could not have been more perfect.

1:27:06 Have you ever considered that nukes were fake? How about nuclear power if the power stations were fake That's certainly better explains why this magical energy isn't used everywhere to replace all the other sources Well, that's a good conspiracy theory Hadn't heard that one.

And that concludes our list of associate executive producers and executive producers... Hold on, Colin Nistler? Oh yeah we're moving Colin Nistler but all he says is keep on truckin'. Oh okay didn't have any big note okay Yeah it's Colin he's in Northville Michigan Well i have to say despite your essay in the newsletter good showing today

1:28:03 Yes, because typically when you when we put actual content is maybe this is a turning point You know what? I think it was just for insiders who like to do these look like looking to how the why something works or something doesn't work. Mm-hmm I think the point of the article was that the money being spent by Bloomberg This is all bitching and moaning the article they guess he was about about the effectiveness of advertising And with some possibility that it's not gonna be effective when it comes to Bloomberg at the end of the day, after he dropped 600 million of his own money into the campaign and brags about it. Which is a pittance compared to what he has. So I think there was the element of well here's how we do it differently than just throwing money at it and

1:28:52 We don't accept Bloomberg ads, so we're going to actually talk about things about Bloomberg that no one else will talk about. In fact, Bloomberg has really been spreading the love online if you've seen he was paying Instagram influencers 150 bucks a pop just to put something in your comments Yeah. What a bonanza it could have been if we were commercial outfit Oh yeah, we'd be cleaning up That's beautiful and...yeah, yeah Manny Mike how can the president call him that? It's ridiculous what a horrible person Trump is! What are you reading?! Where is this coming from? No I'm just showing them what the show would be like How about this? I'll try on for size This is how it works

1:29:36 I really appreciate Mike Bloomberg. He sees the America that i see he wants to help people directly you call him a billionaire but he gives away tens of billions of dollars to the most charitable fantastic causes, he's a true patriot! I've heard is a pretty good guy too All right, well I'll cut that out and i'll send it in as a submission And I would like where's our money. I would like to say that today is the official Petra coochie day This is the project

1:30:12 that was started years ago by Dame Astrid and Sir Mark Pechakucha, P-E-C-H-A K-U-C-H-A. It's 20 slides, 20 seconds per slide it's global everywhere in the world these pechakuchas will be taking place it's their version of a no agenda value for value go to pechakucha.org and see if there is one near you it really is fantastic It's a really great gathering and it goes by quick, it's fun. And there are hot chicks there right here! Yeah? I should do an NOA-GENDA slideshow. What for Petra Kucha? Why what we're doing is important and why it really matters Well if someone will put it together I'll present it

1:31:06 I can put it together. Oh my goodness, 20 slides! How many times do i get to twitch and blink per slide? Like eight or nine? Yeah 20 seconds you got all the blinking and winking squirming and jumping... Thank you very much to our executive producers and our associate executive producers for supporting this program keeping the lights on keeping it running and for showing us just how valuable the work is that is done here by all producers of Gitmo Nation because everyone is putting this show together we just happen to be tasked with the actual work part of it but Thank you, and if you'd like to support us for our show coming up on Sunday I will be in Florida doing the show live from there And of course that means we have a meetup on Friday But Sunday will need your help go to Dvorak.org slash N A I think you're pretty much up-to-date You can sound intelligent about the debate ain't that true? Our formula is this We go out we hit people in the mouth Shut Up!

1:32:13 By the way, since we...since someone brought that up thinking that was New Water Order or I've received several notes from people who said that they also misunderstood that New World Order jingle which we've been playing for about 10-11 years. people think it's you order water. There are all kinds of interesting ways that have been interpreted, I kind of like that. You! Order! Water! This is great. So the president issued some pardons and commutations which received a lot of attention from the M5M

1:32:58 Did you pick up on anything? Well, I know it's a derbyshev and Mona. You have a clip. I think there's a clip good, good, good where they were. They mentioned I think this is under one of Amy's clips. Let me see what we got here. Try to pardon. Oh yeah, this might be a try to pardon Stone Trump democracy now President Trump issued a wave of pardons and commutations Tuesday to a group of his political allies circumventing the normal Justice Department process Among the 11 people granted clemency Tuesday were former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who had been jailed for attempting to sell Barack Obama's U.S. Senate seat, former New York Police Commissioner Bernie Kerik, who was convicted of tax fraud and lying to officials, and investment banker Mike Milken, who was convicted of securities fraud and conspiracy and was best known as the Junk Bond King.

1:33:49 The clemency comes amid speculation Trump might also try to pardon his longtime friend and former campaign advisor, Roger Stone. Hey! You hit my eye with that thing put it back. Stone... It just happened I guess in the last couple of minutes 40 months he's been sentenced to 40 months for lying to Congress by my calculation that is the magic number 3.333 years am I right on that? Oh, never thought of that well That's code then okay. It's good for him now a couple things She says in there she says he she slants the story That's why I gave the boeing at the end because she deserved it yeah

1:34:36 political allies, Blago in Illinois. When is he a political ally? Well I... when you're done analyzing what she said- Mike Milken, I mean- No go ahead! Go down the list and we'll come back to it. Well Mike Milken's another one. I don't know that they've ever done business together or had even knows the guy but Milken was the guy who invented the junk bond it really helped bring the country back from its couple of slumps and junk bonds actually work People don't want to admit it, but the whole Wynn empire was built on junk bonds. The Mirage Hotel was built on junk bonds and is very successful. He also wasn't in jail anymore

1:35:17 You know, he's not in jail but he needed to pardon because now I can get his licenses and everything back. Right you can go and trade again? I would like this if Michael Milken who was a genuine genius who was set up by Ivar or Ivan Boski is the bad guy it's a shame because the guy was...Milkens one of the smartest finance guys in the history of the country and they should be back in business Well let's run down uh the list here because there is something going on with this So we had Edward D. Bartolo Jr., he's the, um... He owned the San Francisco 49ers and uh yeah so I'm not quite sure- I think maybe he won't- doesn't he live in Ohio or something? Think he's in Ohio now. He's a-

1:36:06 super mall builder, I think he does live in Ohio. Yes, I think that's what Trump is doing for the Ohio support for the for the election. I pretty much can deconstruct most of these, we just went through Milken then we have Ariel Friedler don't know much about him Bernard Carrick this was uh wasn't this the police commissioner who got caught on like Nannygate because i think it was in New York at the time I don't, to be honest about it. I don't know anything about that guy Well he got screwed Most of these guys got screwed That's what i think These were legit unlike what Amy said against the department guidelines

1:36:51 Okay, well let me tell you what's going on here because I figured out the minute. I saw the mainstream I mean there's a lot of people you could jump on and they completely ignored the women who had their received pardons or commutate at pardons actually for Actually maybe been commutations But they're out of jail women who were involved in nonviolent drug crimes some of them You know just deserve to get out, I think. They did their time they got a little railroaded so that's been completely ignored everyone focused on Blagojevich and Trump himself said well yeah you know met him a few times you know i just felt he'd been in and it wasn't pardoned his sentence was commuted which means you're done so you're still guilty if you still you still did at all but you can get out of jail now and the way the mainstream jumped all over that

1:37:47 Got my no agenda producers sense tingly and I went back to our notes because good point this went down when we were Well actually goes back to before the show started and it deserves Yes, it does. It goes back to when Obama became senator for Illinois that's before the show started That is, but not the... This is all a part of it. Because if you go and listen to, there's a famous tape of Blagojevich and he's talking about how I've got something to trade, I've got this valuable Senate seat etc., It was really only about 2 or 3% of everything that was recorded at the time And you gotta ask why was Blagojevich being wiretapped by the FBI? Was it just because he was trying to sell

1:38:38 Obama Senate seat? No. We do have to go back to how Obama got his senate seat in the first place because this is all Chicago politics and Trump's commutation, getting Blagojevich out of jail is a big F you to Obama and I'll explain why so when Obama met David Axelrod, at the time David Axelrod had just left The Tribune Company in Chicago where he was the City Hall editor so very closely tied to a Chicago politics. He was a consultant who himself said he packages up black politicians for white voters So he became Obama's main man

1:39:24 In order to get his Senate seat there were two people in the way. One was a billionaire hedge fund guy and who was way ahead of Obama in the polls for the nomination for To be the senator so that I this was a Primary, not quite sure what it was did have all this in the show notes by the way? I'm just trying to go through it quickly And then suddenly documents leaked about his contestor that he, in his divorce papers which both he and his ex-wife had sealed they were leaked by the Tribune Company of course there's David Axelrod and it showed that there'd been some spousal abuse. Then there was... He punched her? No he actually kicked her in the shin because she was kicking him

1:40:11 But when they did a debate, there was a four minute segment. So that killed the guy's chances Then they had Jack Ryan By the way I don't want to stop your flow but you can collect yourself This is very similar to the parallels a bit, the way Hillary got her Senate seat. If you remember all of a sudden she's running against the guy that would be unstoppable which was Rudy Giuliani but somehow Giuliani gets cancer or a cancer scare or something has dropped out and she just gives it to him Exactly. So this is yeah, I remember this bull crap about this guy who should have beaten Obama Well then we had the second one then there was Jack Ryan This guy is handsome also multi-millionaire very well connected in politics

1:41:01 And he is clearly going to ring Obama's bell in this. But, oh-oh! The Tribune Company once again finds leaked documents from the sealed divorce papers between Jack Ryan and his ex wife Jerry who we know as 7 of 9 of Deep Space Nine And there it showed, and was kind of funny because they had disagreements over group sex and sex clubs. And interestingly enough she wanted to do it but he didn't so... But it was a scandal! I thought that's the other way around? No no I went back and looked at it. The guy actually got excoriated for not wanting to have other people bang his wife in the sex club

1:41:42 But whatever, that was another scandal and whoop Obama pops right in. So Obama was a state senator for a number of years and his main fundraiser is a guy named Tony Rezko. R-E-Z-K-O you might want to look that one up. Tony Rezko is incredibly corrupt he's been...and he also helped Blagojevich fund these campaigns all of Obama's campaigns And that's where the FBI trouble started and it was, by the way there was all kinds of alleged payoffs where Obama bought a house next to Resco. Resco then sold him a little piece of land for...payoffs basically and Obama has admitted oh that was a mistake I never should have done a deal with that numbnuck even though they were best buds

1:42:30 What Blagojevich was ultimately, because it was two trials. The first one hung jury they couldn't convict him on anything of these phone calls that just said yeah the guy's braggadocious but he really didn't do anything wrong and they finally nailed him on asking for campaign contributions for an increase in Medicare payments to a hospital here's the problem. On the board of the Illinois, no I think running the board of the Illinois Hospital and Medical, that I don't know exactly what it was called, was Barack Obama he was part of corruption in Chicago and payoffs between Rescoe and the medical industry, the hospital everyone you can imagine because that's how politics works and that certainly how

1:43:22 Chicago politics works. So the guy that Blagojevich was discussing this with on the on this phone call and again you've only heard a little bit. You didn't hear the whole setup to it which probably would have exonerated him where Blagojevich is really saying, you know, this guy, these effing Obamas full of tricks all this stuff I'm sick and tired of it and he essentially laid out the corruption that Obama was involved in so Trump has I'm sorry Blagojevich got 14 years his co-conspirator much more corrupt than him actually involved in the payoffs Got ten and a half years why they wanted to shut? Blagojevich up shut him up for Obama's term possible second term and another term after that and another term after that

1:44:12 and Trump has pulled him out, and he is going to rat Obama out. He target number one no small aircraft no hot tubs stay away from hair dryers in the bathroom Blagojevich has a big target on his head No one caught this except I think a lot in the mainstream know it and they immediately went to, it's his buddy he was on Apprentice. Now all of this is total horse crap! This is...it's on its own and we'll see but Trump did this either to just

1:44:48 Make everybody worried because a lot of people involved in this, a lot of names. Axelrod is still on TV Not that he's a big fish there's a lot of people involved the Pritzkers This is such a Chicago shitstorm and all these links are in the show notes Take a look at it You will be astounded and you'll understand why this protectionism Of Obama is outing itself as Blagojevich is a crook Yeah He is! He's crooked This is what politicians do, give me a campaign donation I'll get a contract for your military industrial complex company. And this is and maybe this is the overarching point that I'm not prepared to unravel today but I've been looking at how this kind of

1:45:35 this what they call the deep state or you know, what would be administrative state. The stuff that really you know all these people the judges and you're the judge who just sentenced Stone to 40 months all of this and you can help me with this I think started with FDR FDR was the champion at giving away government money, programs that he invented. Of course we had the New Deal but there were all these programs that he would give money to political friends but not just that, he'd give it to the media in fact I found out that he delivered huge amounts of money to LBJ so Texas would be all-in on it. LBJ passed that money onto Brown and Root? I didn't even know

1:46:22 that he was a part of that. That's Kellogg, Brown and Ruth. That's Halliburton this goes way back This what you see with these little people at the top with a Comey or what's the FBI dickhead who didn't get convicted of anything McCabe they're all part of it They're all part of what the National Security bureaucracy All these little intelligence agencies It's a mess and I don't think I don't think God does it sealed indictment. Yeah, precisely god bless him I don't think Trump can blast through all of this it's impossible again blast through any of it its But this is what's going on here and I like that he's playing this angle Let's see what happens we have to keep our eye on it now because no one else will No one understands what's happening here

1:47:11 Well, they don't care. I care! I think it's fantastic No, i said they don't care and you said you care plenty Yeah so I would love for all producers this is your eyes peeled warning And just to wrap this up uh...this little segment The first part is this complaining about the bar should I told you this was gonna be a big deal Bar should resign. It's crazy We got 2,000 people former prosecutors signing a letter a letter Oh my god a letter he has to resign he's taking instructions from the president This is wrong. This is not how it's supposed to work no in the

1:47:51 NSB, the National Security Bureaucracy that is indeed not how it's supposed to work. You're supposed to let them handle everything unfortunately it's always been this way this is Eric Holder President Obama's Attorney General for the first six years of his presidency on The Breakfast Club, he called in and talked about his relationship with President Obama. Remember this is the Trump-Barr relationship of the Obama presidency. Well, I don't know. We'll see. Come on man! Come on! Come on! We need you! I gotta ask her again. Come on Attorney General please! No well i'm happy. I'm still enjoying what I'm doing there's still work to be done um I got it I'm still you know I'm still the president's wingman so I'm there with my boy yeah yeah and so I get a we'll see we'll see Yeah I'm still the president's wingman? I'm his boy

1:48:45 That's how, that's exactly how it's supposed to be. But oh no can't be the lawyer of the president you have to be the lawyer of the United States Well, this is pretty transparent. Here play this clip Firestorm over the 2000 ex-DOJ's I got a comment about this Next tonight the growing firestorm surrounding Attorney General William Barr more than 2,000 former Justice Department prosecutors and officials now publicly calling for his resignation The AG facing heavy criticism for intervening in the sentencing of President Trump's longtime friend Roger Stone That sentencing now set for Thursday long time friend. Now, if you remember about six months ago, it may have been a year ago but I think it was more like between six months and a year ago nine months maybe there was the same 2000 ex-DOJ guys who signed the petition saying that the president should be impeached

1:49:42 And this is just a mailing list. This is a group of 2000 that are all Democrats and it was signed out... You're right! So I looked into the first time it happened, which is the same 2000 guys. You can look at the list of the same people. I looked into this back then when it happened to first time and I wrote a track down two or three of them and wrote them email them that maybe I tracked out more than that but only got responses from two or three you were trying did you acquire the entire list? The list is available. That's a hot list, man! The article that ran in Medium is the same list that they just ran with ePaypal. John you know what we can do with this list? Here... We'll send the email I saw what you were doing. I was able to turn on your webcam. I saw what you were watching You need to send me five Bitcoin Come on man it's a great list It's a great list to do that for I don't have the emails Oh oh that's a problem

1:50:39 So I had to dig through and dig around, and finally got the emails for maybe five or six of them. Because some of them are in famous law firms. And you go to their website, there's the guy. XDOJ, it was just amazing how many XDOJ people there are in giant law firms. So I sent a bunch of notes out because I thought this sounded like a bunch of bull crap that they're just putting people names down. You know, like petitioners do? But no! They wrote back, oh yeah... Now I read they were all irked that even questioned that they did signed on to this thing and you could tell they're all just a bunch of either never Trumpers or just Democrats who don't like Trump. It's the same group so this is going to crop up every six to nine months 2000x DOJ saying that Trump did the wrong thing, This is bull crap good and the fact

1:51:30 that ABC News, the sort of Democracy Now!, just played it straight is just beyond pale as far as I'm concerned. Just bad coverage is not very well done. Good deconstruction! I had forgotten all about that list That makes so much sense. What a bunch... It's hooey, it's malarkey I say! But if you really want to know the constitutionality of it you got to go to the constitutional lawyer Alan Dershowitz because he knows that this is legal can you do that? Can you open investigations with him and has an interesting example There was a lot of White House control over the Justice Department during the Kennedy administration and I don't think we saw very many liberal professors.

1:52:14 uh... arguing against that i have some information as well about the um... about the obama administration which will be disclosed up in a lawsuit at some point but i'm not prepared to disclose it now about how president obama personally uh... are asked the fbi to investigate uh... somebody on behalf of george services allies is we've seen this kind of white house influence on the justice department virtually in every justice department uh... differences this president is much more over to better be tweaked about it president obama

1:52:51 whispered to the Justice Department about it. And I don't think these thousand former Justice Department officials would pass the shoe on the other foot test, maybe some of them would but a good many of them wouldn't and let's be very clear about the constitutionality. The President could make a decision to really control the Justice Department. He could decide who to prosecute, who not to prosecute... he shouldn't do it! It hasn't been done since Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson did do it. We've seen this throughout our history. You said that George Soros asked Barack Obama to have his Justice Department investigate somebody?

1:53:31 That's going to come out in a lawsuit in the near future. Yeah, that is not unusual People whisper to presidents all the time Presidents whisper to Justice Department all the time It's very common it's wrong whoever does it but it's common and we shouldn't think that it's unique to any particular president. I have in my possession the actual 302 form which documents this issue and it will at the right time come out but i'm not free to disclose it now because its a case that's not yet been filed." How juicy! This guy is genius. I can't wait to find out who Soros wanted, forget that Obama took care of it but who was it?

1:54:16 I can't wait to find out. We're gonna find out if unless it's another or it's going to go thrown into the pile of 10,000 sealed indictments. Nah Dershowitz kind of he doesn't say stuff if he doesn't mean it is my this the impression I get but yeah but it's a good point because after the media the M5M tried so desperately oh oh Bolton Oh Bolton Bolton Bolton we need Bolton on the stand I think this was another masterstroke. I think it was a scam! I think Bolton was in cahoots with Trump and played everybody, here's Chris Matthews grousing about the latest news Tonight former National Security Advisor John Bolton spoke publicly for the first time since the impeachment trial where he discussed his unpublished manuscript which reportedly contains new details of the Trump-Ukraine scandal According to NBC News when Bolton was asked about Trump's attacks

1:55:12 I say things in the manuscript about what President Trump said to me. I hope they become public someday." He tweets, but I can't talk about it How fair is that? He added we'll have to see what comes out of the censorship When asked if Trump's call with Ukrainian president Zelensky was perfect in quotes Bolton said you'll love chapter 14 and when asked if he's concerned with Trump's attacks on Alexander Vindman and Marie Yanovich Trump Bolton said I think it's legitimate to worry about scammed, you've been punked. He's selling a book! What did he say? He's not even telling people what Trump allegedly said to him. Hey it's in chapter 14 and all these dummies fell for it well they fell for because they wanted to fall for it

1:56:04 They're grasping at straws. They know they've got a problem. They ground the news cycle to a halt for at least four days over this What a waste of human energy! Bolton knows that if he does anything that was really disparaging That he would be a jackal in the Republican Party. His whole world would be done, he'd be done for good! He's still playing? He must have been an ambassador or wants to do something with it... Sure does! Yeah this was well first of all is gonna get a nice pile of money for this book people will buy the book yeah so there's gonna be nothing in the book oh of course not chapter 14 be like psych

1:56:55 Just one word, psych. Psych! Yeah well welcome to the 70s so I have a couple of offbeat clips i got one here i think might be a good one to play We used to do this more on the show than I've been doing it recently. Not we, it's mostly me watching ABC Nightly News with David Muir and finding the native ad. Oh yes! We always loved the native ad unless its The Ring doorbell kind of tired of that one Yeah well we still probably would put a keybash on it but now I see a new kinda native ad and this is posing as a news article as they do It's a native ad

1:57:39 But it's one of these things, I started seeing this in the Super Bowl. There was one Super Bowl ad where they were the Coca-Cola bears were there with a Hertz renting a Hertz car and you drink having a tasty freeze ice cream at a Dairy Queen. It was just a whole bunch of people ganged up to produce. They all jumped in on one ad. Yeah because it was expensive so they figured let's triple up yeah Well here's, this is the new version of that. This is it and by the way exactly if you take the intros and outros out... It's 60 seconds I'll bet. 60 seconds just nails are right on the number.

I'm a poor college student who cannot donate very much but without my mother i would not have what I have to give nor the opportunity to receive such an education as I am now without her support it is times like these when one can turn to their community for help and I feel as though no agenda through the power of concentrated goodwill can generate extraordinary results

2:14:05 And I love our family. Love our no agenda family what a bunch of crazy fuckers y'all are and And... is to, that's a sandy o-a. And? And let me be and, and, and, and Look! Look here's the deal. Here's the deal look. Let's catch up with some international news for people Yes I have some international news too yes what you got

2:14:48 Yes, I get the parallel. If you got new we got two governments at the same time it's like a juggling act is parallel Afghani winners in Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani has been declared the winner of last year's presidential election after the results were delayed for five months but Ghani's main opponent, Abdullah Abdullah has also declared himself the winner and says he'll form a parallel government. The political chaos comes amidst breakthroughs in the peace negotiations between the U.S. and the Taliban with a peace plan expected to be announced in the coming days I was watching the story about it wasn't clippable about the defense budget

2:15:31 I mean Trump literally cut 500 billion dollars from Afghanistan. It's of course it's proposed, you know the administrative state will still try to do whatever they can but yeah 500 billion cut from Afghanistan and i think another 600 billion cut from Iraq just taking the money away and also no new drones found that interesting hmm No new drones or droned out Yeah, maybe the old ones are still good. With drones in the gills? We don't need new drones?! I think it's all Space Force now...I think it's lasers from space. Space Force! The drones are just in the way of the laser beam. Heh heh heh...laser beams you mentioned. Hey, Bre- Bre- well yeah they're- You guys standing there chhhhhhhhhh. Oh. Not only- Will!! Not only can I imagine, I'm sure it's completely possible. They have lasers to take out and take drones out from the ground why wouldn't you have a laser from space? Ah, I feel so hot honey

2:16:33 I'm waiting for your drama to end. Here's a story that nobody on the mainstream is discussing whatsoever, the Cameroon massacre! Oh, geez. I didn't even know about this! In Cameroon the United Nations says at least 22 people were killed including 14 children in a massacre Friday and in the Anglophone region of the country an opposition party has blamed the killings on the army which the armies denied The massacre comes amidst a conflict between the Cameroon Army and English-speaking separatist fighters which has killed thousands of people and is forced more than half a million civilians to flee their homes

2:17:26 Half a million refugees from this and we haven't heard one word of it? Well, you know why don't you? Trump! Trump! Come on. You know why. There is no news here. Zero news. No one cares anymore. Even Brexit... Brexit there's interesting things going on In particular, as predicted the European Union is making it as difficult as possible. In fact, Guy Verhofstadt came out with a quote and said, oh negotiations with the UK in EU? No no! It's a hell of a job to do this it's like being on two different planets

2:18:19 And it's gotten so bad that the EU is possibly going to force the UK to return the Elgin marbles, which you may not know what they are now I think about it. I do not know what this is but... So you're gonna have to tell me? The Elgin marbles also known as- So they got a gift they have to return? Well- These guys are ungifting! It's questionable whether it was a gift. It's the Parthenon Marbles, a collection of sculptures That you know, this is they were I think they're originally rousted from part the Parthenon in near the Acropolis and in In Athens roasted. They were totally roasted if you look at there's a Wikipedia entry did no No, they were totally rousted

2:19:04 Okay. Let me see, but some... Oh they probably should send them back anyway. Well because they... They're at the British Museum is that where they are? Of course! They were rousted and they're in there at the museum and any of the UK or the European Union saying yeah this belongs to Greece that's the European Union we're gonna want to have those back So this is the level that they're going to on this Brexit deal. They will not make it, I can tell you. They're never gonna make their December 23rd deadline It's gonna be another crisis at the end It's all gonna come together at the same time We'll have US elections then we'll have the Brexit it will be horrible

2:19:44 People don't care. They don't care it's great yeah, it's great for us they want their marbles back show they want their marble I got a coronavirus update the Yes, yes ABC version landing in Omaha, Nebraska today escorted from the plane one by one by medical teams rushed off by motorcade to this special isolation unit They've had a very long journey, so I think we're not going to make any assumptions about anything that's passed along verbally. We're gonna go ahead and just test everybody." 338 Americans were evacuated from the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan flown to bases in Texas and California arriving overnight

2:20:25 14 are suspected of having a coronavirus infection. Four now in isolation and hospitalized near Travis Air Force Base near Sacramento, 10 in Omaha. Hundreds of passengers checked before leaving the ship were deemed healthy to fly I have put my mask on The bus will take you airplane, airplane takes you United States But after the evacuation had already begun, a complication. New test results revealed those 14 people were positive for the virus exposing others on a 40-minute bus ride to the airport Officials making a critical decision saying the safest option was to push forward with the evacuation putting infected patients in the back of the planes in these special isolation chambers They took temperatures and if you had high temperature he went into that

2:21:12 isolation, booze. Mark Jorgensen had to leave his wife behind in a Japanese hospital after she tested positive for the virus so far 454 cruise passengers have been infected we met John and Melanie Herring when he spiked a fever and had to be hospitalized He's now fighting the virus and has pneumonia Goodbye Diamond Princess The couple deciding Melanie should be on that flight home Melanie is now back in the US telling us she too spiked a fever All right, so let's get to Clayton Sendell. He is live from Omaha tonight and Clayton the rest of the roughly 300 passengers the Americans who showed no sign of the virus we know they spent time on those buses with these passengers The Americans the 14 who it's believed might be infected with coronavirus Of course more testing here at home

2:21:58 But I gather the rest of the passengers who are in close contact, they'll be watched closely now for the days to come? They will be watched very closely David. They'll be in quarantine for two weeks and it's important to note that those 14 others who tested positive in Japan will be tested again here in The States and while that happens they will be kept in quarantine, in isolation away from everyone else David Yeah, I've got a couple of updates on this. I still am tracking very closely Africa the only case that has been reported is one in Egypt which forced Africa but Nothing else with over a million Chinese trafficking in and out of Africa To back to China and back and forth nothing happening. I'm not worried about it this this is

2:22:47 anything, the smallest hint of anything in Africa everyone dies. They die from all kinds of stuff but no it's not happening I did get some statistics that are interesting The fatality rate...I have two stats here and this is from one of our producers and I trust this we have the fatality rate by comorbidity which is a pre-existing conditions and the fatality rate by age. So I'll start with by age if you...and here we go, sorry yes 10 to 19 years old 0.2 percent 20 to 29 years old zero point two percent 30 to 39 years old zero point two percent

2:23:40 Then we get 40 to 49 years old, 0.4%. Then we get into my territory 50-59 1.3% It starts to increase in your bracket 60-69 3.6 70-79 8%, and 80 years old plus is about a 15 percent chance you're gonna die which is kind of... You know it happens when you get ultimately with the respiratory disease you get pneumonia Now let's look at by pre-existing condition. Those died with no pre existing condition is 0.9%. People with cancer, 5 1⁄2%, hypertension... What is hypertension? Is that also respiratory or is it cardio? Hypertension is just high blood pressure. Oh high blood pressure. 6% If you have chronic respiratory disease, 6.3%.

2:24:36 Diabetes 7.3 and if you have some kind of cardiovascular pre-existing condition 10 and a half percent, and I think that makes sense You know the Chinese also have a lot of old people hanging around they're revered They keep the old people at the house they don't put them in an old folks home They keep him around so if they can get the flu from the kids who then yeah? They kill him off But it's, I just don't see. I don't think that's the mechanism but yeah. That's the results. No but I just, I don't really see an issue The president is very coy about it He's like hey Xi's doing a good job So I think either its much worse in China Only in China only affects Chinese Whatever it is It doesn't seem to be spreading rapidly Certainly not where you'd expect it to However Prada There was one story

2:25:26 I was just gonna say one story Mimi got. Sorry? No, go ahead You know that boat that was floating or a ship floating around nobody let him dock Yeah And they ended up in Cambodia Yep Well on that ship was the stand-up comic Ha! Okay He had a gig in Oregon he had to get too So he escaped from the ship Yeah, typhoid Mary in Cambodia. I think...I don't know if he ferried himself out of the country or not but he was uh.. He should be in quarantine and he snuck out. Fantastic! So, I don't know how he did it there's no...there seems to be more details coming but that's not being covered by anybody that I can tell. That's been around you know this news about this ship. I'm sure there has been a few people who have escaped. Yeah ummm....in Japan

2:26:16 They have a Prada product, you know dress who are you wearing Prada? They've canceled the fashion show. They're not gonna show off their new fashion and the Tokyo Marathon is as good as cancelled, only elite athletes will be able to participate. So of the 38 thousand people mostly non-professional athletes 200 will be running the Tokyo Marathon out of fear of the coronavirus and then we got a follow up from Sir Farm Boy not to be confused with Pharma boy Sir Farm Boy is actually Dark Knight Of The Two Foot Ledge

2:26:58 And he said on Sunday's show you were discussing how Millennials are being more susceptible to the media about the virus. This is what I identified, had you actually followed up on that with any of the Millennials? No, I didn't. I had something else from them and I can't remember what it was. Well, I noticed that two of our girls were worried they'd say well I'm not worried about much I'm really worried about coronavirus So Farmboy says, as a pharmacist I am on the forefront of this. I have given more flu shots these past weeks to younger customers than all of flu season even children surgical masks are on shortage or back order elderberry is flying off the shelves i'm selling more Tamiflu that I have all season All of this happening late in the season we stopped pushing flu shot at the end of year but people stated they're wanting the shot

2:27:53 for the virus even when I tell them it won't protect them from the virus. Anyways, I thought i'd give y'all an update on the Kung Flu here in The States and how the media is affecting the sheeple current douchebag that will change hopefully sounds right yeah so don't be snookered by this people don't be snookered by it's not necessary. I did get the message about elderberry and there's some research on elderberry and choke berry Chokeberry, which apparently keeps the Russians from ever catching any of these. Yeah choke berry and look it up it's another berry These two particular products have an immune effect on the immune system specifically targeting viruses

2:28:40 And the Russians make a big deal of having chokeberry and elderberry syrups and drinks, and such. Is this a millennial thing now? It's like a small batch deal? I don't know, but this is where he got it from. So i'm expecting to see and he mentioned in his report the elderberry phenomenon. And so I guess they're all aware of it and now you can somehow invest in the elderberry business or chokeberries uh... You're going to make a lot of money! Exit strategy Wuhan Elderberries. I'm feeling it we can do it John, We Can Do It!

2:29:23 If something really weird happened at the White House the other day, um... Yeah? The president had the parents of Harry Dunn visiting. Do you know the story of Harry Dunn? I do not. He is the young man who was killed in August by the wife of a diplomat in the United Kingdom because she was driving on the wrong side of the road

2:30:05 and she then declared diplomatic immunity, and they both left the country. And the UK is upset over this you know the peoples of the UK are upset that saying hey you know this woman Saskolas She should come back and she should face prosecution. Now, it wasn't a hit-and-run but she was driving on the wrong side of the road and it was in an odd place...it was near a military base where her husband quote unquote works and so they I guess they were invited or they were at the White House and the president then apparently said well you know

2:30:47 Mrs. Skoulas is next door would you like to meet her so you can, maybe find some kind of solace over this horrible accident? And they said no why would we want to do that? No! We're not prepared these people are of course they're distraught and I'm now seeing This woman was a spook she and her husband were both spies there over there at this At this base, I'm looking for the name of the base. It's a listening station so there are spooks that president tries to smooth this over i'm sure the intelligence one of the intelligence services said hey you know at least give it a try

2:31:32 But I expect this to have some legs. This is not going to end, the UK wants justice served over this and the White House is trying to put them together and pawn it off and see if we can smooth it all over? This is this has international fracas written all over it. What kind of a spook was she's you know, did they train these people how to drive on the right side of the road in countries like England? It doesn't take a genius that driving on the left side of the road I will say if you hit around about...I have hit around about in the UK when I first lived there and then wound up on the wrong side of the road and at night it can happen! I mean it's horrible

2:32:18 And there was police there, and so she didn't get a hit-and-run. But these people were up to no good. These are spooks. You're probably right I don't have much else to say about it other than damn man you getting the president to try and fix that for ya in such a pathetic manner? Ugh! Yeah, that is pretty bad. Well talking about people coming and going this here's an interesting story that ran another one is not being played up much but apparently it's a major situation been going on since 1988 This is the case of the missing Saudis and I picked this up off of CBSN. Five Saudi Arabian students studying in Oregon have disappeared while facing criminal charges in the United States, but an investigation launched by The Oregonian newspaper has discovered these cases are not unique to that state

2:33:13 Similar cases have also been reported in seven other states and Canada. The Saudi nationals vanished either before their trials or before completing their sentences Shane Dixon-Kavanaugh has been reporting on these cases He joins me now from Portland, Oregon Shane thanks so much for being with us based on your reporting How long has this been going on? And do you expect to find more cases like these Our reporting in the last few months have found these types of cases going back at least 30 years in the United States. We have some going back as far as 1988 and some as recently as last spring. University students from Saudi Arabia have been accused of fairly serious crimes, from rape to vehicular manslaughter and in these instances the defendants have disappeared while facing prosecution."

2:34:14 This goes on, unfortunately CBS and play this thing went on for 15 minutes with questions and answers. And it turns out that they're not even necessarily famous Saudis are from a big family if a Saudi commits a crime in this country is going to be prosecuted or jailed or who knows what they say Sneak them onto a plane and ship them out of the country, apparently. That's what it seems to look like. They haven't figured out the complete mechanism but... Yeah isn't that what we did with the whole Bin Laden family after 9-11? We shipped him out just got on their own private plane and flew away. We're famous for doing these things

2:34:50 famous for. Well, we're famous for doing that but who's taking these kids? Who should many of them and then it turns out when the end of the story which I didn't just sub clip I should have clipped it almost almost I'd say 90% if the guy finally admits 90 percent of these Saudis that got arrested were arrested for rape or some sexual abuse one kid apparently had one of the biggest collections pedophile literature that any of the police have ever seen. Off the field is off to Saudi Arabia, very bad form. Here's the clip that I got that ISO from and wanted to play because this is a weird story this is a kidnapping attempt it got kind of played by most of the major media I thought it was interesting enough fight that I'd clipped but just a weird kidnapping oh you mean the end-of-end-of-show ISO whether you were talking about

2:35:44 Yeah, it came from here. Tonight this woman stands accused of posing as a newborn photographer then drugging a mother to try and steal her baby Now authorities say as many as 10 other women are claiming they too could have been victims I was completely appalled I was like that could have been me The women say they saw Juliette Parker's ad on Facebook offering a free newborn photo shoot Just last year the 38-year old ran for mayor in Colorado Springs seen here in this campaign video One woman agreed and Parker came to her home for three different shoots. On the third, she brought her own teenage daughter and a treat... A cupcake for the new mom! We believe that she was drugged by a tainted cupcake Wow, that's horrible Oh my goodness

2:36:35 I have a few clips left for the unhoused here in Austin, Texas. We're on the we are at the frontier of the front lines of the homelessness clash. Well before you go into this I do want to say couple things that may have a clip for this and then next show This is our governor did a state-of-the-state speech Oh And thats all he talked about In California Yeah We have another thing i should just mention as we have literally a communist district attorney in San Francisco was elected Yeah, the young guy right? What's his name the young guy. Yeah I can't remember his name. It's a weird name yeah. He has a weird name We have this break-in problem with cars in San Francisco your window if you if you have a car and You're driving around San Francisco And your park somewhere there's especially certain neighbors is good chance someone's gonna come by those little special little pingball things it's like a little hammer and then boom they're gonna knock your window out and steal whatever they can find

2:37:31 And so this is an epidemic. There's like a thousand cars a day or something, some ridiculously high number and so you know what the city solution is gonna be with this guy? This new guy came up with his solution I can't wait The city will pay for the broken windows Oh of course! That's a whole different take on the broken window theory oh my goodness Yeah, Chesa Bolden. Chessa? Yes, something like that I can't pronounce his name. Chessa C-H-E-S-A. There's this instead of enforcing the laws and capturing wrongdoers is the term i don't like uh no no we'll just give you some money it's just because an inconvenience fee

2:38:12 Oh my goodness. Well, you know it's what we're seeing is all this the bad stuff is coming back What has returned in New York City? What has returned to Manhattan at the tunnels your favorite my squeegee guys That's right that this is what Giuliani was so good at getting rid of now I don't know what he did with him. I think he dumped him in the East River But doesn't matter it was gone It was if it cleaned up and everything was much much better But the homelessness issue, which is really turning into a camping issue and where can you camp? You know, because you're unhoused if you're camping. You're not homeless. You're not experiencing homelessness. You're camping! Lots of people camp I know a lot of people who live full-time in RVs, Airstreams even smaller tents cabins and they go to the KOA or rent some... There's lots of places you can even if you're on disability you can afford a camping site but now this all has to be

2:39:13 on the medians, it has to be everywhere where it's no longer allowed in Austin downtown but of course it's all moved just to the fringes of that. And this is not unique to Austin, it's happening everywhere and a lot of people argue with me about this but there's the rejection by the Supreme Court to actually discuss the Ninth Circuit court's ruling that even though it should be policed, it is illegal to just build a structure without a permit in a public place Removing those people is an 8th Amendment violation, cruel and unusual punishment unless you have a place to send them. To send them indoors which they don't want it's a circular jerk no one wants to be the bad guy particularly here in Austin Mayor Adler

2:40:00 No one, no everyone's afraid to say something. But this is not unique here This is one we haven't discussed yet This is Denver Colorado. The Denver's urban camping van has been struck down by a county judge the judge says it violates the eighth amendments prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment because criminalizes homeless individuals who have nowhere to go. Nearly 83% of Denver voters decided to keep that ban in place back in May, activists consider the judge's decision a victory for the homeless still the head of the Denver rescue mission says this could make it harder for them to serve the homeless Joel Hillin reports my messages to the people on the street come in and

2:40:39 let's try to help you. That's really our message." Brad Miley is the president and CEO of the Denver Rescue Mission, which has been serving Denver's homeless population for the last 128 years. Last year alone we had 700 men come through our Next Step program and 400 of those men are no longer homeless He feels overturning the camping ban isn't the best way to take care of our homeless This ruling is a great concern to us We don't think people should stay on the streets. We think they should come into facilities like Denver Rescue Mission, Catholic Charities Salvation Army, Volunteers of America where they can get the help that they need Friday's ruling prohibits Denver police from arresting or harassing individuals experiencing homelessness who choose to camp on public property And I do not think anyone should stay outside. I wouldn't want to stay outside

2:41:33 I think folks should come in where it's warm, or safe. We can go to the bathroom or you can take a shower." Miley said despite Saturday night's cold and snow they still had 240 beds available several local business owners I spoke with did not agree with the ruling but declined to go on camera fearing retribution from homeless advocates this ruling is being appealed but regardless Miley's message remains the same we just want to help people and help them too get out of poverty, out of experiencing homelessness. Except, of course when it comes to where the truly rich famous and elite live such as Malibu California. Yeah we're standing just beside Pacific Coast Highway here and as Thomas pans over you can see there are a lot of RVs and other vehicles here And these are all public parking spots for the beaches which are all open to the public here in Malibu and most of California for that matter

2:42:42 The issue is they're not coming for just hours, they're coming for days, weeks and indefinite periods of time in some cases. So what they are doing is the city of Malibu is working with the California Coastal Commission which controls PCH. They are changing the rules about spending the night overnight being able to park all night you have to move your vehicle In fact we just saw a couple sheriffs towing a vehicle that apparently couldn't move on its own or it looked like it had been there quite some time as well so they were towing that away This is also not just an issue, though about access. Take a listen to one of the councilmen. Where the motorhomes have 30-40-50 gallon capacities in the septic systems they're dumping those right onto the rocks or onto the beach into the public right-of way

2:43:27 They're dumping sewage into the right-of way. That's a health violation and it is humanitarian violation, it's me above everybody else. Yeah another big issue out here is fire safety obviously concerns about open fire cooking in this area that still recovering from the Woolsey Fire just a little more than a year ago many of the homes here still have not been rebuilt from that So, their solutions are looking to create a 24-hour safe parking zone that's not along the highway. They're also looking to get more people into the system here. If you take a look we have a chart showing housing costs here just as rent it's up by about 50% over the past decade clearly wages not keeping pace so its very high cost area particularly if your talking about Malibu or anywhere alongside the coast but they are offering lower cost vouchers for home subsidized housing

2:44:12 The problem, though, Melissa not a lot of takers because that's more inland and of course people want to be near the coast. Now my final clip in the series... Before you go on I do want to comment on the clip before this one where I found just a tidbit in there where they guy says he tried to put some businesspeople on the air but they wouldn't, they refused to talk on camera for fear of retribution by the homeless advocates What are they talking about? Are these a bunch of thugs that are promoting homelessness and they go beat the crap out of some guys. Is anything bad? No, this is the cancel culture. This is the world that people allow themselves to live in which is total horse crap

2:43:27 They're dumping sewage into the right-of way. That's a health violation and it is humanitarian violation, it's me above everybody else.

Are these a bunch of thugs that are promoting homelessness and they go beat the crap out of some guys. Is anything bad? No, this is the cancel culture. This is the world that people allow themselves to live in which is total horse crap

2:45:00 They're afraid because the minute you say, hey get your tent away from my business. The advocates and they are this nutty they will come out in droves they will tell everyone to boycott your store they will do anything... They're crazy! The cancel culture is insane and they're afraid! The people.... afraid now it's... See this doesn't happen in Chinatown Well, no. Or in Malibu. Malibu was also gonna change that but they just didn't have their private cops move them off whatever like yeah here's you go now okay they're gonna kick him out Now in Austin where it's the same thing people are afraid although it's starting to bubble up and people are gonna take matters into their own hands You will see there will be I guarantee before the year is out there will be at least five

2:45:51 unhoused people or as the news would say, in the greater Austin area. It's going to happen, already we're seeing things like the following story taking place it's just the beginning. An Austin man has set up a live stream of that alley behind his apartment That alley is filled with people who are homeless and drug dealers who prey on them Fox 7 Austin Shannon Ryan in studio with that story, Shannon Yeah Mike Rebecca users can pay to play audio in the alley police say its noise ordinance violation

2:46:27 and make allegations within those citations that this is a hate crime. The livestream founder tells me it's freedom of speech It's half a block from where tens of thousands are coming to party every weekend, and nobody sees the side of it you know what I mean? And I just thought people need to see this It's super raw and it's super uncensored obviously. And I feel like that just brings eyes quickly, I guess." It's been less than a week since Keegan Godsey started live streaming the alley behind his East 6th Street apartment He calls it a social experiment and its quickly gained popularity Viewers can pay $5 to play audio in the alley The audience is often homeless

2:47:11 And this is it's unbelievable. The guy is blasting out you can you know, you can yell at the homeless You can play You know Metallica? You could choose all kinds of shit to play and of course the guys in me He's getting the citations, of course But this is going to bubble over not just here It's gonna be many plays except for California because they're just beaten down and people don't care anymore in California but it's going to end very poorly if Well, it's not an issue going anywhere. That's for sure now It's very slowly going nowhere But me today we have this tomorrow We'll have the same you know the thousand dollar limit or the nine hundred and fifty dollar limit You got in California? And just roused anything you want up until nine hundred and fifty dollars worth of value

2:48:02 Yeah, you can go in any store still whatever candy bar. You want and just walk out nobody cares well I can't do anything about it That's it's a very toxic place to do this because we have guns here something's gonna someone's gonna be clean that'll go off Yep, of course. Well then we'll be here to cover it where the mainstream is not covering anything. This is what we do sorry to go out on such a bummer but... A Bummer!

Turning to somebody like Senator Sanders who wants to burn the house down So I want to be clear Let me be

2:50:08 Very clear. Fair enough, fair enough. Excuse me I really do have to respond. Come on man! The man or woman? Or could be more than that? More of a Microsoft Word guy and if you look at my plan... Area maybe the Mayor Bloomberg and I share you up two stents as well 25 years ago. Well, we both have two stents it's a procedure that is done about 1 million times per year We might all be surprised if my blood pressure is lower than Mayor Pete's But we can't be so eager to be liked by Mitch McConnell that we forget how to fight the Republicans In the good part of the economy this... It's only 60 seconds not up yet Maybe they didn't like the joke I told and let me just put
