About this episode

President Volodymyr Zelensky has initiated a sweeping anti-corruption purge across the Ukrainian government to satisfy European Union accession requirements and secure continued military funding. The crackdown coincides with former President Petro Poroshenko admitting to the BBC that the Minsk agreements were a strategic ruse to buy time for military expansion. Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron faces intense pressure from Kyiv to ban Russian athletes from the 2024 Paris Olympics as the IOC explores neutral-flag alternatives.

In the United States, Representative Maxine Waters is under scrutiny for transferring $190,000 in campaign funds to her daughter, Karen Waters, while a Chicago-area school official faces charges for embezzling $1.5 million in chicken wings. Brazilian President Lula da Silva rejected a request from German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for tank ammunition, proposing instead that Brazil and China lead peace negotiations. The Dutch government, led by Mark Rutte, has restricted ASML semiconductor exports to China following high-level directives from the Biden administration. Additionally, the FBI conducted a high-profile raid on the home of pro-life activist Mark Houck, who was subsequently acquitted of all federal charges.

Technical glitches and environmental hazards define the week as a massive ice storm in the Texas Hill Country forces broadcasters onto Starlink and home generators. The discovery of a tiny radioactive Cesium-137 capsule in the Western Australian desert highlights a massive logistical recovery effort. From the mystery of Punxsutawney Phil’s Canadian rival, Canuck Chuck, to the rise of antibiotic-resistant super gonorrhea, the landscape of global news remains as volatile as the soaring price of eggs.

02:41 I mean this is the stupidest story. I've heard all week What were they trying to communicate to me? The Super Bowl coming, is it on ABC the Super Bowl? Oh, I don't know. I think it's an NBC or I don't know Fox maybe Fox Well this was an ABC report. I'm just trying to figure out why would they give me a report that doesn't tell me what happened To the money other than the guy just stole it but what does that have to do with with the Super Bowl This is what you get from the mainstream. There's a screwball, I have a screw... You're talking about corruption? I got a screwball one same thing similar thing now about the Super Bowl this is about Waters Maxine Waters has got a scam going

CHAPTER 03 / 48 Discussion

Maxine Waters, Campaign Cash Transfers, Daughter Karen Waters

Representative Maxine Waters is reported to have transferred over $190,000 in campaign funds to her daughter, Karen Waters, during the 2022 election cycle. The payments are tied to an "endorsement mailer" operation where other politicians, including Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsom, paid the Waters campaign to appear on promotional materials.

maxine waters· karen waters· campaign finance· slate mailers· kamala harris· gavin newsom

03:25 Fox News is reporting that California Democratic Representative Maxine Waters has continued a practice of transferring campaign cash to her daughter. This, to run a profitable operation during the 2022 election cycle. NTD's Daniel Monahan has the story. Daughter Karen Waters allegedly received over $190,000 from her mother's campaign it was reportedly to keep her in... Oh you're back with NTD? that robot voice, there it is! This is indeed the endorsement mailer operation afloat between January 2021 and December 2022. The system works by outside campaigns paying Waters campaign to appear on the endorsement mailers those are then sent out to constituents in the Los Angeles area. The practice is reportedly unusual at the federal level however Fox News reports that endorsement mailer's also called slate mailers are commonplace in her home state of California

04:20 Critics say the practice of one campaign paying another for support in an election is misleading. Waters received permission to use the system from the Federal Election Commission in 2004, since that time Fox reported that Karen Waters received over a million dollars in payments from her mother's campaign The practice has also been lucrative for Waters' campaign. Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign sent over $30,000 to Waters for endorsement mailer placement in 2010 when seeking the California Attorney General spot then in 2016 Harris paid around thirty thousand dollars more to appear again while running for the US Senate

04:57 Meanwhile, Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom reportedly paid Waters $45,000 while running for lieutenant governor in 2010. And former Senator Barbara Boxer spent a combined $33,000 in 2010 and 2018 on the mailers. This is great! I didn't know this. So you can actually scam your fellow congressmen and senators, they're scamming each other! Yeah. Oh this is good... This is good well that'll never change. Not in California. All right but let's go back to corruption because what is probably the most corrupt country in the world if I had to ask you just offhand?

CHAPTER 04 / 48 Discussion

Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukraine Anti-Corruption Drive, EU Accession

President Volodymyr Zelensky has launched a high-profile crackdown on corruption and oligarchs in Ukraine to secure continued military aid from Western benefactors. The effort is also framed as a necessary step for Ukraine's accession to the European Union, as the country seeks to shed its reputation for systemic graft.

volodymyr zelensky· ukraine· corruption· european union· oligarchs· graft

05:37 California? No country. Oh, Ukraine! Doug tell us a bit more about this anti-corruption push is this really just about joining the EU no it's not just that that's a big part of it This is France 24 this is their They're Ukraine experts, some kind of douchebag. That guy that I hear is an expert on everything... he's a utility player. They bring him in as everything. Bring that guy! Bring Bing Baldy in! A major part of the anti-corruption drive and a major part of why we're seeing such a crackdown right at this moment. Yeah so Zelensky is now cracking down on corruption in Ukraine. Time when Ukraine is in an existential war for survival with Russia

06:16 Look, this has been an ongoing struggle for a long time. Zelensky campaigned on getting rid of oligarchs the richest people who controlled most of Ukraine's wealth had monopolies over all of the public sector practically Has he gotten rid of that Burisma guy? The one we know is corrupt with Hunter Biden I don't think he gotten rid of that guy Campaigned on getting rid of them, campaigned on removing, ridding public life of graft of the misappropriate Graft. Does he mean grift? No, graft! What's graft? Oh that's funny you didn't know that word. Graft is like the word from the 40s for corruption Well but isn't grif the current word for corruption? No no, grif is different. Grift is like a scam. Graft just like an overall... it's literally corruption I am looking at the definition

07:12 It's a shoot or twig, piece of living tissue, transplant. I'm not finding graft as corruption anywhere! That is funny because it should be in there like one of the top definitions but yeah i think its old fashioned. Ah, ah, yeah see it has a Wikipedia page not in the dictionary Political Corruption An American English form of political corruption defined as unscrupulous use of politicians authority for personal gain Yeah, I don't think it's funny. I didn't know that I think it's no I think it is because this shows that there's some point Because when your age yeah There's some cutoff point where people of course you were I? Don't know or you weren't watching enough movies from the 30s. I'm not sure anyway why this guy use it as

08:01 It's weird to me. However, it has taken on sort of extra crucial vital urgency right now and that is simply because he is in a battle to prove to the rest of the world A. That Ukraine has shed its reputation as this sort of den of corruption rampant corruption widespread corruption... Oh wait a minute I thought I'd never heard this

08:41 since the war, the war. And he also has to convince at a time when the West is in danger of having war fatigue and perhaps not keeping the flow of heavy weapons that Ukraine so desperately says it needs coming – he has to prove that he's good for his money. He has to prove if his Western benefactors and donors, his Western allies continue to send military aid financial aid to the tune billions of euros and dollars that he's going to be good for it. That it's not going to just sort of vanish into the corrupt ethers of Ukraine's public life. Yeah, so let's hang a couple of guys up and that'll convince us! So he has to prove that he is good for money He has to make sure that pipeline keeps going And he has to prove because its part his EU accession talks It was already a candidate to become an EU member. He says accession? Isn't it extension? I'm sorry maybe I am just

09:31 Maybe it's just all me today. Accession? And he has to prove... It comes from the, it is derived from the word ascend. Well that would be ascension I think thats what he said Because its part of his EU accession talks Accession! Oh he says they got an X in there for some unknown reason Its already a candidate to become an EU member He has to prove that corruption is a big part of becoming a member Woah woah woah woah Corruption is a big part of becoming a member of the EU. Yeah, that's what he said It's already a candidate to become an EU member He has to prove that corruption is a big part of becoming a member convincing the EU Yeah, well, you know it now he nailed it and all sudden this guy is the best analyst in the world He went from a douche to my favorite we can't wait to hear more from him

CHAPTER 05 / 48 Discussion

2024 Paris Olympics, Russian Athlete Participation, Emmanuel Macron

President Zelensky is pressuring French President Emmanuel Macron to ban Russian and Belarusian athletes from the 2024 Paris Olympics. While the International Olympic Committee is exploring pathways for these athletes to compete under a neutral flag, Ukraine and Russia both remain dissatisfied with the proposed conditions.

olympics· paris 2024· emmanuel macron· russia· belarus· international olympic committee

10:25 Speaking of graft, Zelensky is using his political power. It's a thinly veiled threat the Ukrainian president warning against the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes during the 2024 Olympics As we prepare for the Paris Olympics We must be sure that Russia will not be able to use it or any other international sports event To promote aggression or its state chauvinism What? Didn't we even have everyone participating in like during the war with a third? We had 38 Berlin Olympics didn't did we have uh, Did we have an Olympics during the world during World War two no No that was before. Yeah, though. The thirty-eight was before hmm well this is also before the World War three so well this is like

11:16 Who's this guy calling these shots for? It's none of his business. What is Russia going to do, walk down there with a carrying sign saying screw Ukraine or... I don't get what he's trying to say here. Zelensky is not saying anything on his own behalf This is about Macron because the Olympic Games are being held in France So I think this is to noodle Macron because he's not exactly on the team to promote aggression. Yes, and a couple of... wait, yes, Macron is not on the team and also Macron is not an idiot because these Olympics bring in a lot of money

11:59 And there's Russian money in these kinds of celebrations is way beyond the pale. They really know how to live it up, they spend money in France. Exactly. Promotes aggression or its state chauvinism. Last week the International Olympic Committee indicated that there could be room for Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete. It said it was necessary to explore a pathway for their participation under strict conditions One of these is that they would not be allowed to represent their countries. A proposal that's failed to please either Kiev or Moscow I would like to underline once again, that any attempts to squeeze Moscow out of international sports are doomed to fail This was the Russian spokeswoman lady This should be understood by those who say they stand for high moral principles and a separation of sport from politics

12:51 She appeared to be taking a stab at French President Emmanuel Macron, who in the lead up to the World Cup in Doha had called for not politicizing sports. Oh yeah there you go! There you go everyone was oh no Doha don't pay no attention to the killing of the gays Don't politicize Doha that's football but Olympics nah... Macron under fire he's got some problems Yeah, yeah he does. You know former Ukrainian president what was his name? He was Poroshenko Petro Poroshenko but was interviewed by the BBC and... That should have been good! Yeah well I have a very short snippet but it kind of says it all this is about the Minsk agreement

CHAPTER 06 / 48 Discussion

Petro Poroshenko, Minsk Agreements, Angela Merkel

Former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko claimed in a BBC interview that the Minsk agreements were a stalling tactic designed to give Ukraine eight years to build up its military and economy. This aligns with previous comments attributed to Angela Merkel suggesting the agreements were intended to prepare Ukraine for a future conflict with Russia.

petro poroshenko· minsk agreements· angela merkel· vladimir putin· ukraine· russia

13:44 Oh yes, the Minsk agreement was the... which we didn't really discuss much but that came up as a kind of everybody's signing on to let's don't do any just don't get carried away here. Let's sign off and I think it was I will see if he mentions this. It was Angela Merkel, it wasn't necessarily on a hot mic but it was on some podcast or something she says the whole Minsk agreement was a phony. It was just designed to keep everybody getting ready you know to go after uh... To set this Russia-Ukraine thing up. Did we have a clip about that? Do you remember? It's awhile back. I'll look in my archives. Minsk update Newland

14:28 Minsk update? Let's see, maybe Minsk update. Mass security forces have disrupted a demonstration by women in the Belarusian capital Minsk. Human rights groups said at least 15... No. Newland towns touts US commitment to Minsk agreements That's probably worth playing, whatever it is. Okay this is from 2015 so this after the Maidan I come after Sochi to make absolutely clear the US commitment to the full implementation of the Minsk agreements and to make clear that we are eager to deepen our involvement in helping the parties achieve full implementation

15:12 Well, what you said about Merkel though that's a good one. I wish we could find that but I don't see it. But Poroshenko completely... Say again what you think it was she said? The idea was is that the Minsk agreement was put together as a a way to stall everything so everyone can get in position and get ready and start building up arms, and do everything you have to do to get this conflagration underway. You had to stop everything first... So the Russians had just moved in and they were just taking the place over. They had to create this phony baloney thing to stall the Russians It was a stalling tactic Former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko

15:55 These documents give Ukraine eight years for building up army, for building up economy. and for building up global pro-Ukrainian, anti-Putin coalition. There you go! Exactly right! We needed eight years to get everything in place... Get some hate going on for Putin... Yeah, get those flags printed And everyone knew about it... Get the flags printed... And everybody knew about it Everybody knew about it No problem They all did According to Merkel

CHAPTER 07 / 48 Discussion

Boris Johnson, Vladimir Putin Missile Threat Claim

Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson claimed that Vladimir Putin threatened him with a missile strike during a phone call prior to the invasion of Ukraine. Johnson also discussed the likelihood of Ukraine joining NATO, suggesting it would not happen for the foreseeable future despite ongoing tensions.

boris johnson· vladimir putin· bbc· nato· missile threat· ukraine

16:31 It was just a scheme to stall the Russians or put this situation in play. I think it didn't work out the way they hoped. No, and then all of sudden Boris Johnson's back on the scene. Boris? Yeah! And he was also interviewed by the BBC and he had I'm not quite sure why he's floating around again. Something must be up, because otherwise you wouldn't see him and the BBC interviewed him about Putin and well you know Boris if he was threatened by Putin threatened by him! He threatened me at one point and said you know Boris i don't want to hurt you but with a missile it would only take a minute or something like that

17:13 But I think from the very relaxed Tone that he was taking the sort of air of detachment. Oh, yeah that you seem to have He was just playing along with my attempts to get him to negotiate he said Boris do you say that? Ukraine is is not going to join NATO anytime soon. You said in English any time soon What is any time soon? And I said, well it's not going to join NATO for the foreseeable future. Maybe that is what he is out there to communicate that yeah don't worry Ukraine isn't going to be part of the EU. No no you said NATO. Oh NATO! I'm sorry NATO Yeah that's not gonna happen That would be insane Although there are some crazy people out there Very crazy What was the point in putting Ukraine into NATO except to annoy Putin?

CHAPTER 08 / 48 Discussion

NATO Expansion, Turkey Veto, Sweden and Finland

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan continues to block the entry of Sweden and Finland into NATO. The hosts speculate on whether the Nordic countries truly want to join or if the Turkish veto provides a convenient excuse for them to maintain their traditional neutrality.

nato· turkey· recep tayyip erdogan· sweden· finland· veto

18:20 Well, there's so much going on. What is the point? I don't know but... But I know that Finns Finland is really waiting and Sweden as well waiting to be accepted into NATO but the problem is Turkey, Turkey yeah! Turkey is Erdogan specifically is refusing you know unless we unless Finland does it everyone has to do a couple things. Finland and Sweden both they have their Yeah, how about this for a scenario because I was note there was a good report on this the other day and they had Erdoğan say no we're not gonna let him join because of they dissing that. How about this? Because it seems to me a logical thing to do Sweden and Finland don't want to join NATO Oh man! The people do...the people are afraid Well they can be as frayed as they want but the powers-that-be especially in Sweden They like the idea being neutral again There's a big advantage to it

19:19 It was good for them in World War II and let's don't get involved. How about this? Hey, Erdogan you got a little leverage here we'll do you would be a fabulous favor after this is all over veto it just don't let us join." Well someone saying that and well that is Erdogan he said when his vetoed it right no but but someone if someone is saying veto it and that may not be Finland or Sweden I don't think so. Finland, the Finns i talked to which is not many are like they can't believe that this a-hole Erdogan has not let them in yet which I think would still not you know even if Erdogan's not gonna it's just not going to do it It was never the idea makes no sense what benefit do we have letting Finland in

CHAPTER 09 / 48 Discussion

ASML Export Restrictions, US-China Chip War, Mark Rutte

The Dutch government has restricted the semiconductor equipment manufacturer ASML from exporting advanced lithography technology to China following pressure from the Biden administration. Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte reportedly received these directives during a visit to Washington, complicating the global race for chip manufacturing dominance.

asml· netherlands· china· semiconductors· mark rutte· joe biden

20:10 There's no benefit of a sweet North for anyone. I'm sorry, there is no benefit this whole NATO thing is shit by itself but you know... But let's take it one step further the EU Yeah America is out the current regime in America is out to get the EU There's just, it's so obvious. We're going to screw you on technology we're gonna screw you on climate change subsidies so that we have a much higher competitive advantage. We're slowing down chip exports You can kind of go pound sand do your own thing Lots of stories in the Dutch press about ASML

20:52 The Dutch government has restricted ASML from exporting technology to China and without the lithography it's very complicated to keep up in the global chips race. But no one has explained why, you know? Rutte went to see Biden and he got his marching orders not from Biden I'm sure whoever it was like now you gotta slow that down But now that company is also like well, we need to run a predictable business. What what can't there's it's very shady very Cloudy no one murky you get money under the table or give must be must be yeah Don't worry about it You'll be taken care of just do it so everyone's Louis says you could day do everyone's doing everyone's messing with China and then to the to the There's so much going on internationally to the

CHAPTER 10 / 48 Discussion

Lula da Silva, Olaf Scholz Brazil Visit, Ukraine Neutrality

Brazilian President Lula da Silva refused a request from German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to provide ammunition for German-made tanks being sent to Ukraine. Lula maintained a neutral stance, suggesting that both Russia and Ukraine share blame for the conflict and proposing that Brazil and China lead peace negotiations instead.

lula da silva· olaf scholz· brazil· germany· ukraine· tanks

21:45 All the way to... It's International Day. Yes, all the way to Brazil where you know for whatever reason it was like hey Brazil can you help out with this Ukraine situation? And Lula, the criminal in charge like nah. A warm embrace and a cold shower. The German Chancellor's trip to Brazil was more of a roller coaster ride than expected Olaf Scholz traveled to the South American country to welcome it and its new president back on the world stage after his predecessor had alienated many of Brazil's Western partners but it won't all be smooth sailing with Lula da Silva either and he made that very clear

22:24 Asked to provide military support to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia's invasion, Lula said he doesn't want any involvement in the war. Instead, Lula said Brazil and China could play a role in peace negotiations. Scholes was hoping to rally Lula's support in providing ammunition for German-made tanks in Ukraine The Brazilian president refused to side with the West and reiterated that in his view Russia and Ukraine were equally to blame for the war Now this would be interesting. You know we're getting set for the end of this thing that's pretty obvious It has to end you know We've said it has to and before were supposedly gonna ship them a bunch of our Abrams tanks The tanks are before the f-16s I mean, it's all boats I mean they have six the F 16s there mate was probably they can ship those sooner than you ship two tanks but They're not gonna ship the tank so I don't think we're gonna ship him any of this stuff. I was reading the

CHAPTER 11 / 48 Discussion

Pentagon Contracts, BAE Systems, General Dynamics

The Department of Defense recently awarded massive contracts, including a $651 million deal to BAE Systems for engineering services and a $481 million deal to General Dynamics for the "Prophet" detecting system. The hosts highlight that many of these billion-dollar contracts receive only a single bid, suggesting a lack of competition in military procurement.

pentagon· bae systems· general dynamics· defense spending· minuteman iii· prophet system

23:25 You know, the US Department of Defense has an email list that you can... It's a good list to be on. Yes! But they basically send out all of their contracts because we just sent another two billion dollars or something? I don't know. Yeah, probably. Looking for this email. What day is it? Thursday? Probably for sure I call it defense. Let me just see if i can find this uh, this email Hmm let's look for that Uh, I mean it's it's literally a half a billion dollars for a maintenance contract They have all... I'm sorry half It's 500 million dollars Yeah 500 million dollars And then another one For 400 million dollars Which was tendered via the internet With one respondent

24:23 That's the thing that does a scandal with the Defense Department. They have these huge, they let these contracts out you have that you get that mailing I get that mailing too by the way yeah and it's just loaded with just money and but defense departments has set up the system over the last 20 or 30 years so there's only one bidder on each one because there's only one guy left he bought all his competition out And so the one bidder can bid what you know, I'll do it. He says next time Can you put it in there make it 650 because you know, we go extra cash Oh here it is. I have it. I found on but knew how to find it I highlighted two

25:07 Air Force BAE Systems Technology Solutions and Services, Rockville Maryland has been awarded $651,593,380 fixed price level of effort contract modification to previously awarded contract with a number there for sustaining engineering services. This contract provides for services to support both the Minuteman III and the Sentinel Systems Directorates to ensure the integration of current and future hardware, software testing and modifications. Are you kidding me? That sounds like a scam! Now let's go to the Army... You think?! You're not allowed to do that anymore. Hold on

25:56 Army General Dynamics Mission Systems Inc Scottsdale Arizona was awarded 481 million five hundred and seventy eight thousand eight hundred and sixty dollars hybrid cost no fee cost plus fix fee and firm fixed price contract for sustainment of profit enhanced detecting systems Profit Prophet pro ph et so that's a system bids were solicited via the internet with one received Yeah, we are fools man. We are fool yeah, we're in the wrong. We are definitely in the wrong business It's not it's that kind of stuff you know I was like wow This is typical not even I mean, it's not it's just yeah They need to audit the Pentagon Oh please

CHAPTER 12 / 48 Discussion

IRS Hiring Challenges, CPA Shortage

The Internal Revenue Service is struggling to fulfill its plan to hire 85,000 new employees due to a nationwide shortage of Certified Public Accountants. The hosts express skepticism that the agency can find enough qualified personnel to meet its expansion goals.

irs· hiring· cpa· accounting· taxes

26:50 We know that's not going to happen. Meanwhile... 85,000 IRS guys coming online send them over there! It's not that simple you know they can't hire 85,000... I mean they've got it to the point where it isn't that simple is almost impossible and a beautiful job of accounting firms cannot even find one CPA per year So they're hiring monkeys, which is possible at the IRS. I don't think they can hire that many people. No, I don't think so either. Meanwhile Russian military is now touting and posting that they have 20 thousand documents on US bio-warfare program running in Ukraine Yeah! I think this was part of their problem

CHAPTER 13 / 48 Discussion

US Bio-Warfare Program, Ukraine Documents, Fort Detrick

The Russian military claims to have seized 20,000 documents related to a U.S. bio-warfare program operating in Ukraine. The discussion links these claims to theories regarding the origins of COVID-19, suggesting a path from Fort Detrick through Canada to Wuhan.

bio-warfare· ukraine· russia· covid-19· fort detrick· wuhan

27:34 Part of the reason... Oh, wait. You think? Did I say that? No, I'm saying it! I'm evening out the score today. Okay yeah That is part of the problem and the more I think about all this wow man you just got to think that we're complicit in this whole COVID thing but that came out of us Well i was..I think as it started with us and they ended up I don't know how... the story between it getting out at Fort Detrick to Wuhan is the story because, like i am understanding, it went through Canada. Oh wouldn't surprise me! You know so there's a thing about eggs everyone's noticed the eggs we had big egg producer Egg Farm catching fire there's a story out there

CHAPTER 14 / 48 Discussion

Egg Yolk Antibodies, COVID-19 Neutralization, Conspiracy Theories

A study published in early 2021 suggests that antibodies found in chicken egg yolks can block the binding of SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins to human ACE2 receptors. This finding has fueled conspiracy theories regarding recent egg shortages and fires at egg farms, with some suggesting a deliberate effort to remove a natural COVID-19 preventative from the market.

eggs· antibodies· sars-cov-2· ace2· chicken feed· conspiracy theory

28:25 that people believe that the feed, the chicken feed has changed. I have no evidence... well there's a lot of people talking about it and they have no evidence you know? No there is no evidence what this goes like... let me summarize it goes like this to put a guy on YouTube or TikTok he says I've been feeding my chickens this new, this Purina feed and they haven't laid an egg for a year. A whole year this chicken hasn't laid an egg! And then i got suspicious so I changed the feed and I gave them some of this into some of that now they're laying every once a day just like usual which could just be a change of feed or...I mean I want to believe it but I think it gets much better with this report that is now just circulating this is from PubMed

29:16 Let me see. It looks like mainly Chinese researchers, but it's published I won't give away the title. It was published January 2021 abstract The SARS-CoV2 virus is still spreading worldwide and there is an urgent need to effectively prevent and control this pandemic This study evaluated the potential efficacy of egg yolk antibodies as a neutralizing agent against SARS-CoV2. We investigated the neutralizing effect of anti-spike S1 IgYs, that's egg yolk antibodies on the SARS-CoV 2 pseudovirus as well its inhibitory effect on the bindings of coronavirus spike protein mutants to human ACE2

30:04 which as we know that receptor is a big part of people getting sick. Our results show that the anti-spike S1 egg yolk antibody showed significant neutralizing potency against SARS CoV 2 pseudovirus, various spike protein mutants and even SARS Cov2 in vitro! It might be a feasible tool for the prevention and control of ongoing COVID 19 Now we've got a conspiracy theory That is a beauty! Wow. Now we've got a conspiracy theory I'm giving you 10 points for that gem Thank you, i'll take one point from ya Isn't that cool? And if you need to eat more eggs

30:48 Oh, then get the book. Go download the book for free! Which is at too-many-eggs dot com Am I saying that right? Too many eggs dot com? Yeah exactly. I have an egg story since eggs are going to be a thing of the past What was the title of that thing you said you didn't want to say what it was? Because it would give it away The title is Chicken Egg Yolk Antibodies Blocked the Binding of Multiple SARS CoV 2 Spike Protein Variants To Human ACE2 Yeah, that's great. Those kind of reports you don't need to read the report. But I just wanted to give you the abstract. No, I got it. A bunch of Chiners did that so now that we have a real conspiracy theory makes nothing but sense that NPR is pushing egg alternatives! All kinds of egg alternatives have been cropping up not only... Oh by the way if you're at NPR and you're going to do a story about eggs what is required of you as a quote-unquote journalist?

NPR Egg Alternatives, Plant-Based Food Startups

NPR recently featured a segment testing plant-based and dehydrated egg alternatives as real egg prices soar. Investors are pouring billions into food startups, including an Israeli company developing plant-based fried eggs, as the industry looks for ways to transition consumers away from traditional poultry products.

npr· plant-based eggs· food technology· israel· inflation

31:41 What? Lots of puns. Lots of puns about eggs. Oh, puns! Puns! Nothing worse than a pun report. PUN REPORT!!! All kinds of egg alternatives have been cropping up not only freeze-dried eggs but also plant based egg products those are usually soy or bean based liquids that kind of resemble scrambled eggs when you cook them for the first time last year the plant based alternatives were cheaper than real eggs and sales rose nearly 20 percent according to market research firm IRI I mean, right now if you can make something that looks like an egg tastes like an egg and costs less than an egg Oh! You could make a lot of money Yeah

32:21 But those are some big ifs. So I got a few of my NPR colleagues together to try some of these egg alternatives and see if anybody has cracked the code. Oh, oh! Cracked the code! Oh you're so good. If anybody has cracked the code... So I scrambled up some plant-based eggs, some dehydrated eggs and regular fresh eggs just little milk, little butter, little salt. I put them into separate unlabeled dishes and served them to our egg lovers So everybody liked the fresh eggs. Also mostly liked the dehydrated egg. Flavorful, spongy a little spongy but now for the big one... The plant-based eggs! This one is super interesting but it doesn't taste like an egg maybe I'm wrong? But that does not taste like an egg. That tastes like potatoes what's messing with my head

33:13 I don't know, i'm not loving these. They look a little wetter too. Look a little sogier So for the moment it seems like the real eggs have it but science is moving fast The first plant-based fried egg has been developed by a startup in Israel and investors are pouring billions of dollars into food startups that are trying to tackle the egg After all, if egg prices stay high customers may get really serious about looking for the exit. Oh the exits! Please... But you see this is the trick. That was exactly what you're talking about. Exit strategy. Well that's what that book is it's a Dvorak family exit strategy.

34:00 So the idea is to make the real food expensive and then of course people are going to go to the cheap shit because they don't, they're under-informed. They don't know what they're doing to their bodies. It tastes pretty good but it looks the business got the texture if it's got the right same amount of protein just eat those! Yeah that's the logic you actually nailed the logic You did go down the laundry list of what has got in it And it tastes, it's good. I can taste... None of those were good, but I'm assuming the way they described them. But it tastes good and has got the laundry list checkmarked okay yeah it's actually got more protein and more vitamin C this will be better is actually better! And as a bonus you get less antibodies against COVID

Texas Ice Storm, Power Outages, Generator Preparation

The Texas Hill Country and Austin area experienced significant ice accumulation, leading to widespread power outages and dangerous road conditions. One of the hosts describes using a home generator and multiple internet backups, including Starlink, to maintain broadcasting capabilities during the storm.

texas· ice storm· austin· power outage· generator· starlink

34:47 Yeah, it's a bonus. It just win-win-win! By the way the lights are flickering here... Maybe that was an explosion? Maybe some Transformers blew up. We have ice again in Texas. Like right now? Well today it's just lifted Tina is on her way to Chirac she is going to see her sisters and their mom but also she's doing them meetup tomorrow in Chicago by herself interesting The Keeper Meet Up But yeah, we've been basically indoors for a full 48 hours not able to get out ice ice everywhere on the roads Friend of hers was supposed to leave Tuesday. She was staying here she's also from Chicago area and She couldn't get it. We couldn't take her to the airport For two days so it's been anyway Austin of course

35:41 Power outages everywhere because of the ice accumulating on the lines and wouldn't you know it even in hill country? But after purchasing my generator For this very situation our lights and power have not gone down once during this horse. That's the reason I bought it The reason is by it is the minute you buy it, you never need it that's exactly right It looks like getting your car washed It rains it always rains. Yeah, exactly exactly But that's what you want is a way of getting it to rain but I did see the lights flicker for a moment So that well it generally will kick in well. It won't kick him before everything goes down The promise can you are you powering? How does your internet powered who said wow this is the good news I have multiple Internet Connections so if spectrum doesn't come up which is when I'm using

36:36 I can either use the Elon system, which would be a little less than ideal because there will be delay. Yeah but also have two hotspots one for Verizon one for T-Mobile so hopefully those don't... But if all else fails i can use the Starlink if all else fails we'll see that's the Elon system that's the Elon system So there would be a delay but we'd be able to get the news out Important the way we'd handle it. We do it like pros knowing there's gonna be a delay Yeah, yeah And we just and we would talk over each other a bit like pros like pros tight keep it tight keep it tight Keep it tight man keep it tight all right while we're on bullcrap

Super Gonorrhea, Antibiotic Resistance, Pharmaceutical Industry

Health officials have identified cases of "super gonorrhea" in the United States that are resistant to five classes of antibiotics. The discussion criticizes the pharmaceutical industry for abandoning antibiotic research in favor of more profitable lifestyle drugs, leading to the rise of untreatable bacterial strains.

super gonorrhea· antibiotics· nyu langone· pfizer· bacteria· superbugs

37:20 This cropped up and we've been doing this show long enough that we have heard of this many times. Fox 5 Health News, the US now has its first case of super gonorrhea and experts say it's essentially transmitted- How many times have you heard super gonorrhea? I think this is the third cycle. It's gotta be. The strain appears to be resistant to five classes of antibiotics. Joining us now is Dr. Rabia Della Torre from NYU Langone Health. Doctor what can you tell us about this new strain? So we've now seen two cases in the United States. Previously, we'd only seen these in the Asia Pacific and UK. And it's been termed super gonorrhea because its resistant to at least five different types of antibiotics that we typically use

38:03 gonorrhea. And so these patients ended up having to be treated with a very strong dose of ceftriaxone, which is an IV form of the antibiotic that we already give them but it's novel because it's showing what we're seeing in the world in general that most bacteria are developing resistance to the antibiotics we previously used and were seeing evolution of what we're calling superbugs so its quite concerning. Yeah no right this has been discussed for years the idea that we could eventually get to this moment. Now, this is interesting... Did they say variant? Variant of this? Is it a virus now? Is gonorrhea a virus? What is gonorrhea? It's bacteria Well they said variant! Did I not hear variant?!

38:48 I don't didn't appear to go back rain. Yeah new strain there you go How's your doctor? What can tell us about this new strain is so strain would be correct strain yeah, okay Where do we go from here where we go from here? It's a great question no Where do we go from here? It's a great question. We have been using and in some cases abusing antibiotics for the last 70 years, and this is again just natural evolution of bacteria and viruses and other infectious diseases they want to survive And so what they're going to do is form mutations that help them become resistant To the things that we typically use to treat them and so what we're seeing now Is that people with

39:26 infections that we could have just given them oral or pill antibiotics at home, we're going to have to treat them with IV antibiotics other or formula antibiotics but you're completely right it's something that a lot of people are scratching their heads about. It's a huge threat to global health and it's something that we need to address. How about stop screwing each other with the gonorrhea? Well, this has been an ongoing complaint long before the show began over 15 years ago which is that these drug companies have dropped the ball and there's a lot of studies about why they dropped the ball because of expense on developing new antibiotics. They just don't care. They'd rather have boner pills or hair grow pills

40:11 or things for restless leg syndrome and all these crazy Lipitor and all these other kinds of things rather than antibiotics. Because antibiotics, there's a few people that were working on this I think Abbott Labs or Pfizer one of the two shut down their whole division that was working on antibiotics. Pfizer doesn't need them. Except well the anti-virals is what they're working on like Remdesivir Yeah which is Which is useless, it's no good. But antibiotics are just getting the short end of the stick everywhere and so this kind of story crops up I think... Isn't that dependent upon the individual? The individual resistance if you have had a lot of antibiotics as a person then you'll build up resistance but just because

41:03 Other people have done that. Does that mean that the antibiotics don't work on you either because the gonorrhea is now supercharged? No, I say it's a bug itself what happens is so way as described Is that okay some idiot has a regimen of having to take this antibiotic for 10 days to kill the gonorrhea He takes it for eight days feels really good stops taking the and I but there's very common Stops taking the antibiotic. There's a couple of right but then what happens to the but the gonorrhea changes and so on since it's now the gonorrhea never changed Say there's that there's a spectrum of gone or his biology course Gonorrhea, there's like a million gonorrhea bugs and they antibiotics kill off your 99.9% that last few that are still left is

41:52 are still left because they have natural resistance, but you've done a job. You've basically created an evolutionary technique to build those out so you kill all the ones that aren't resistant and you left the ones that are resistant alive and they go on to regenerate and create the superbug. Also known as The Clap Drip clap drip. Yeah, Oh rockin the clap I'm just looking at the urban dictionary because this is old-school gonorrhea is old school the jack nice Tinkler blue nachos blue nachos. Hmm. I'm looking for show titles Blue Nacho's. I don't know Blue not you're not shows walk a flock of flame What is this? Okay. Well there you go. That's

Yasmin Vossoughian, Myocarditis, Common Cold Claims

MSNBC anchor Yasmin Vossoughian shared her medical experience with pericarditis and myocarditis, which her doctors attributed to a common cold virus. The hosts question this diagnosis, suggesting that the prevalence of heart inflammation has increased following mass COVID-19 vaccination efforts and criticizing the media's framing of the issue.

yasmin vossoughian· msnbc· myocarditis· pericarditis· common cold· vaccine

42:51 But meanwhile, no one's developing new antibiotics. So you can't try it or you can... Who knows? Now is it possible that just—is it possible that because of over-inoculation of certain so called vaccines, that people's immune systems are depleted as well? That is a distinct possibility. Because this came up... You can't fight off anything! I don't know if you saw this... A lot of people with the common cold. Now you're now you're cooking MSNBC News model. Yes is a good story Yasmin Fosow young what is her name? Fossil again fuss fossa, I can't pronounce s o s s o u g hi am that is not a TV named babe You got to change that Jasmine Voss would have been good but boss off y'all

43:44 She had quite a story, now it's a little bit long. Classic! And she had her doctor on for another 10 minutes total but I think we should just listen to her stories because she is recognizable you see and are like oh yeah I've seen her around She looks also by the way that she kind of has the Ozempic face as well. I don't know just maybe coins Always em may just be coincidence, but let's have a listen to her story all right welcome back everybody I know from my Twitter feed That many of you have wondered why I had been off the air for a little while oh You know no Didn't wonder at all, but since you say it... Not interested. Well I have been dealing with a little bit of a health scare on December 20th. I began to feel chest pains and they waxed and waned over a period of 10 days Waxed and wane

44:35 That's an interesting choice. You're on the terms today I know, something is bugging me about language. I wasn't quite sure what to make of it but as they continued to get worse i started to think something was actually wrong It was December 30th when I finally went into urgent care and was told that I had reflux I didn't really buy it, but I was relieved it wasn't my heart. My body though was pretty certain not to believe the reflux the next day on December 30th What you say her body was not to believe the reflux? No, man Well, this is a this is classic This is an example of our health system yet got I know where this is going and she didn't have reflex So why'd they say she did yeah good question

45:23 What kind of urgent care did she visit? What is wrong with our health care, did they not tell you? I didn't buy it. It wasn't my heart My body though was pretty certain not to believe the reflux The next day on December 30th I woke up with severe pains both in my chest and in my left shoulder And it was like a tightening in my chest when I took deep breaths that got worse when I was laying flat Knew enough at that moment to understand that it could mean could is the key word here that I why is could the keyword? Having a heart attack especially because happening now left part of my shoulder. Oh, yeah, I was gonna respond to that But then I just realized how stupid she sounds but what does the point of saying that could as the keyword? I'm just trying to deconstruct cuz obviously she's lying She's lying

46:13 That all she thought about was, you know, well what could this be? What has changed in my life... I'm gonna guess she's around 40. What has changed in my life recently that might give me some kind of weird physical attributes that I'm not used to It could be anything I knew enough at that moment to understand that it could mean Could is the key word here that I was having a heart attack especially because it was happening the left part of my shoulder. I want to remind you, I run seven miles three to four times a week where I did and You should stop doing that right away lady. That's unhealthy yoga. I don't eat meat. I don't smoke Oh she doesn't eat meat

46:53 I drink occasionally. She's missing a lot of enzymes. Yeah, okay so there is part of your problem. Mind you, I run 7 miles 3 to 4 times a week or I did and I do yoga. I don't eat meat. I don't smoke. I drink occasionally not right now though because my doctor tells me that I can't aside from probably not getting enough sleep and working too much. Isn't alcohol actually supposed to be reasonably good? For your heart for your circulation. I mean this is you know that turns out it seems to me yeah, then no We're not doctors were not doctors we're not through the ages I've noticed something that through the ages and this goes way back Doctors always say don't drink It's just like a rule just don't drink don't drink

47:39 I don't know why they say it because there's less of evidence that says it's probably good for you in certain situations But they just say it. It's just like don't edit your reminds me the show that scene in the movie Why take a chance? Yeah, doctor tells me I can't Aside from probably not getting enough sleep and working too much. I'm a pretty healthy person but on that day I was anything but My husband drove me to the emergency room and from there, the nightmare that has been my January began. I was diagnosed with pericarditis, inflammation of the lining of my heart brought on by a virus... A literal common cold." Okay so that was the diagnosis! A literal virus it was just the common cold. By the way, I'm not going to dispute that it was the common cold

48:28 I'm sure it was, but i think she's boosted her immune system to crap. Let's continue. I also had fluid around my heart that had to be drained or else it could hinder the beating of my heart, I was hospitalized for four nights and transferred from a local hospital to NYU Langone here in New York City on January 4th. I was finally discharged after doctors drain the fluid around my heart and I bounced out of the hospital. I couldn't get out of there fast enough with hopes I was on them end but wait But that wasn't at the end There is more Three days later I was readmitted when I felt a flutter in my heart Like a butterfly, it was inside my chest and determined I had developed myocarditis inflammation of the actual heart now. The heart muscle. I remember being shepherded through the emergency room and wondering is this is? It wasn't thank God instead I spent five more days in the hospital where they ran a battery test adjusted my meds and made sure nothing else was fueling what was happening And in fact in the end... I wonder what kind of meds she would have to be adjusted

49:32 Clearly she got some meds. It was still just the cold that was doing all of this, that had caused all of this inflammation in and around my heart. Okay so this is where I mean who knows what it was or but what i'm hearing is malnourished because she doesn't need meat... This is my personal opinion. I am not a doctor which is what I'm thinking but also the cold is not the problem The cold is her immune system and her doctor will actually confirm this. continued to wax and wane. And the hope is I'm on the mend, and on the other side now but will be on medication for some time to come. It's not the most fun but alas! I am getting older and i need to admit that one man who has helped me through all of it and shepherded me through my ups and downs and my emotions and my family as well is my cardiologist Dr Greg Katz and he joins me now. Can you stop for a second? Yeah of course...it's almost over yeah Well I want to hear the cardiologists butt

50:34 What channel was this? Where'd you get this I mean, I know about this. This wasn't MSNBC This is on her own. This is on the air Yes So instead of giving us news analysis or anything that might be of interest We have to listen to this woman's woes Isn't it always frowned upon to make yourself part of the story as a journalist Yeah. Well, this clearly had to be some... I mean she's just not that interesting So it sounds more like to me like they're doing a little MSNBC messaging bit because of the myocarditis again we mentioned this before something we've never heard of you know for 10-15 years as a common ailment which is now seems to be a common ailment amongst everyone who's taken oh i'm sorry just coincidentally taking the vaccine

51:29 and now we have to endure listening to this nonsense. I shouldn't be saying that, but about the common cold now all of a sudden out of the blue causing this ailment which you've never heard of for 15 years. Yeah and I'm not railing on anyone who accepted the vaccine into their life But let's just be honest, I think that MSNBC...I'm sure they've all had four shots just to comply. To keep your job! Which maybe she didn't even want to do that But to me, it's... well listen to her surgeon or cardiologist I'm sorry who by the way has a weird guttural tick when he starts to lie. One man who has helped me through all of it and shepherded me through my ups and downs and my emotions and my family as well is my cardiologist Dr Greg Katz and he joins me now

52:22 because supposedly this happens and it seems to be happening a lot these days. It's great to see you outside the hospital by the way. So nice not having EKG in front of me, so I don't have to worry about how it looks. Exactly! And me not crying in front of you. What happened? Everybody asks me how does a cold go to your heart? Yes, so it's not so much the cold itself that is going into your heart. It is the way your body is responding to the cold and your immune system for most of us just takes a couple days to clear the virus and we have the standard runny nose sore throat that kind of stuff in its self-limited and goes away

53:00 but for a small proportion of people they get an overactive immune response and they can have inflammation in lots of different areas and Inflammation of the sac around the heart pericarditis like you first we're dealing with is an unfortunate Then he says oh this is like, you know pericarditis. You know that's happening You listen to it. He almost chokes on whatever is going on there and have inflammation in lots of different areas and Inflammation of the sac around the heart pericarditis like you first we're dealing with Is unfortunate thing that we see sometimes We've been seeing a little bit more this year than other years, but it's not unheard-of It's rare But it's not the rarest so to me And they go on they really they wax on and wax off for another six seven minutes

53:48 She her immune system is not functioning because you really just need to get a little drippy nose and some sinus issues And it just didn't work, and he's saying well. It's it's up a little bit this year You know we've never heard of this at all man I'm concerned about our medical advisors Well the medical system has really got to do something to pull themselves out of a steep dive Hmm yeah if possible at all Meanwhile we're transitioning We're transitioning, you know. COVID is over! The pandemic is over! COVID's over! I mean up in May officially...

CHAPTER 19 / 48 Discussion

WHO Pandemic Transition, COVID-19 Emergency Ending

The World Health Organization and the Biden administration have announced plans to end the COVID-19 public health emergency in May 2023. This transition will shift the costs of tests and vaccines to insurance companies and individuals, while Republicans in the House push for an immediate end to emergency declarations.

world health organization· covid-19· public health emergency· joe biden· pfizer· vaccines

54:29 which I think is a World Health Organization guideline. In fact, i'm sure it isn't Dr Jen Ashton over at ABC Good Morning America she will explain we are at a transition point in the global pandemic at least according to the World Health Organization dr jen joining us to tell us more about that what does that mean so we're hearing you know remember in terms of public health here we have the world health organization who makes their statements literally with the globe and the global population in mind and then we have here the president, the Department of Health and Human Services, the CDC, the FDA. And yesterday we're hearing The World Health Organization really saying that we're at an inflection point here in this pandemic remember when... When I'm hearing now that I hear this for the third time I think she's kind of saying you know We have so many different organizations here and everyone has a different opinion than the President because it was weird that the President said it's over but wait until May

55:25 Maybe she's trying to push the World Health Organization as being the authority, which is that's the plan for sure with a big the global health treaty which has not been ratified yet, but I'm sure will. Yesterday we're hearing the World Health Organization really saying that we're at an inflection point here in this pandemic remember were in year three or beginning of year four depending on how you want to look at it and here in this country were seeing and hearing that it will no longer be as if may meeting criteria for a public health emergency so what does that mean really for the individual

56:01 it doesn't mean that much. It's really an economic designation, meaning that certain things may not be paid for by the government so yes that can trickle down and affect each of us individually but things like tests or vaccines we might see guess what they're not free anymore so if you want treatment or testing or vaccination you might have to pay for it but largely this is a terminology kind of milestone for us In terms of our day-to-day life, COVID is not going anywhere so we will continue to have to live with it. Hmm, maybe this is just not quite the way it was explained by our favorites at NTD. Oh Do you have an example of what NTD had to say about that? Yeah, Kovat emergencies laws ending President says it's time to wind down on treating kovat 19 as an emergency and House Republicans pushed a bill today to immediately end the national emergency which has gone on for nearly three years now and

57:02 Here's NTD's Melina Weiskopf from Capitol Hill with more. The Biden administration announced they'll allow the pandemic emergency declarations to end four months from now in May, now what this will do is it will eliminate the executive branches powers that they currently have in dealing with the pandemic such as their ability to suspend student loan repayments as well as end the flexibility with regards to reporting in the health care arena. Republican Republicans today noting the timing of the White House's announcement. And we are moving the federal government away from its perpetual COVID state, giving healthcare workers more freedom and forcing career bureaucrats to start showing up for work again by the way I don't know if anyone noticed

57:47 But the White House is now responding directly to the House Republicans. And Republicans say this is long overdue, pointing to a comment that President Biden made back in September when he said that the pandemic is over. But despite those comments, the administration says there needs to be a phased out approach when ending this public health emergency which is the same message we're hearing from House Democrats Here's how the House Democratic Caucus chairman responded when I asked him about the issue earlier. We understand that some proposals they could be pushing could increase the cost of vaccine, we want to make sure testing is available through insurance programs those are the types things that were concerned about it's about how this policy affects our community and in addition to this bill that would end public health emergency immediately house Republicans also pushed a few other pandemic related bills today

58:38 One would end telework for federal employees. The other would end vaccine mandates for health care workers. Okay, thank you NTD so the idea is let's get some bills out there we still need to have the pharmaceutical industry wants to be paid We've got to get some more so how about this? I'm just going to say between now and May we'll have a bill that will probably be in the half-a-trillion dollar range, that will include a lot of money for Pfizer, Moderna etc. And they know yes yeah I'm not gonna argue that this obviously is a scam going on but the Republicans seem to want to end it and the Democrats want to go along with the HWHO. Yes, with the May ending and i think there's something to the fact that Biden wants to push it to the WHO uh ending and the Republicans are trying to keep him from doing that just seems to be something else in play like

59:34 I think what you mentioned earlier, which is giving the WHO more power and the Democrats are willing to do that because they're the one-world government. That's what they need to do! They may spend the next three months arguing over the global World Health Organization health treaty which we've already signed it just hasn't been ratified and that gives the World Health Organization incredible power Maybe Jen Ashton can give us a little tip of what's happening. But is it safe to say that some people may start to let their guard down and say it's over? I think when they hear this, absolutely and that's why the messaging of public health information medicine science is so vitally important there is pandemic fatigue psychologically we're all tired of it So when you hear this it could be easy for some people to say oh good

1:00:21 It's in the rearview mirror, but unfortunately there are still people right this moment losing their lives due to complications of COVID-19. So I think it's here to stay for a while. All right. Here to stay for awhile? Yeah well here is some messaging. DeMar Hamlin lives what is he messaging? Next Buffalo Bills player Demar Hamlin has a new mission Weeks after suffering cardiac arrest on the field He's challenging people to learn CPR I'm proud to announce that i'm partnering with the American Heart Association and kicking off the Mark Hamlin's 3 for heart CPR challenge.

1:01:13 This was interesting because there's a big scandal, you know is this guy really has the ability to get around? He was at the Buffalo Bills game supposedly this last weekend and they showed him up in the owner's booth with his hoodie on. You couldn't see his face! No I know he's wearing a hoodie and then they show them leaving facility with a hoodie over his head in a wheelchair they're reeling him out you still can't see his face. No, it's great! What was that all about? Or who are they kidding he wasn't there?! I don't know...I mean it's..I would say a lot of people question- And what was the point!?

1:01:51 Ratings, ratings. By the way they lost that game it didn't charge up the team at all because I think the team looked up there and said oh my god this guy that's not him he's dead yeah something like that I'm getting nothing but this is photoshopped this is deepfake he's dead I doubt if he's dead. I don't think he is either at all actually! But, you know these things that they say he was doing and he wasn't at that game and the team knew it which was depressing to them. It backfired. They lost that game. By the way, I'd like to point out that the Eagles are in the Super Bowl as I predicted Yes, your right on the money on this with your crackpot theory

1:02:36 Science brother because it doesn't hurt help to help the Eagles quite a bit when they knocked out our quarterback in the first series in the game whole beginning of The game who's this our quarterback business you vote for the fan of the team You vote for that. No, you vote for the winner stop. You don't vote for it. Well, I even watch the game That's the point your fairweather fan is what? I am a fair weather fan But I still have I'd like to see a good game Yes yes What else you got? You guys think in this health business or should we move on I Got some claim and a lot to climb it if you want climate. Oh, yeah, the pro-life activists that was her rat there was Released that's don't know if that means anything is that with wearing the beanies in the in Walmart or whatever It was I wasn't no I don't think so Pro life activists

1:03:32 Activists for harass. Let's see what it is. Pro-life activist Mark Hauk was found not guilty on federal charges of assault on an abortion clinic escort. Hauk was arrested in 2022 after the FBI raided his home. NTD's Arlene Richards reports. Relief, overjoyed That's Mark Hauk, a pro-life counselor celebrating his acquittal on federal charges of assault under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances or FACE Act. His attorney Peter Breen explained to NTD in a previous interview what the act is and why Hauk was arrested We have two counts under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, the FACE Act as we call it

1:04:15 And that's about, it was put in place back in 1994 to stop the blockades of abortion clinics. Hauk was accused by the Department of Justice of assaulting an abortion advocate just outside the clinic door Mark and his then 12-year old son were away from the entrance to the abortion clinic and the abortion escort who claims to be the victim a 72 year old man went to them there were no patients around he went to them and plopped right next to you the sun and started harassing us. A 72-year-old man should know better And then an altercation ensued. The Philadelphia DA declined to prosecute and a state court dismissed the civil complaint. Breen told NTD the alleged victim didn't show up in court so the matter should have ended but then the FBI raided Hauk's home and arrested him on federal charges On Monday, Breen gave reporters his take on why the FBI got involved From day one

1:05:12 This case has been an intimidation tactic by the Biden Department of Justice. Mark is totally innocent of these charges, this matter is one that never should have gotten the attention of the department justice. Hauk's attorneys argued this was a First Amendment case while the DOJ maintained Hauk violated the FACE Act. This was about the first amendment in that Mark And every sidewalk council in this country has an equal right to be there on that sidewalk and offer assistance, offer alternatives to folks. The jury returned a verdict in one hour. NTD reached out to the Justice Department and asked for their take on this case... ...and whether or not the jury returned the right verdict. So far we haven't gotten a response.

CHAPTER 22 / 48 Discussion

Weaponization of the Federal Government, House Subcommittee

The House of Representatives has formed a select subcommittee on the "Weaponization of the Federal Government" to investigate the FBI and the intelligence community. The hosts discuss whether this investigation is a genuine effort at reform or a "limited hangout" designed to manage public perception of government corruption.

jim jordan· fbi· twitter files· house of representatives· limited hangout· censorship

1:05:58 Was I supposed to learn something from that? Yeah, the FBI is targeting people and that's where it leads me to a series of clips. Aha! There's no reason to like go to this guy you raid the guys house what's the FBI got to do with some one-guy protesting at an abortion clinic who cares? The FBI is clearly an enforcement arm of the intelligence community which appeared to run everything Well, now you'll laugh what I'm gonna say next. Okay! Well the Republicans are going to put a stop to that Oh right! Yes we're gonna have a church-like committee will end all this No people no the biggest distraction of your life is coming down right now and it's the Republicans in in in the House of Representatives who has a slim majority of something There's gonna be some clips to be had All right yeah well that's true

1:06:55 Government targets one. And the House's new select subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government is kicking into action. This, and I just want to say this is what everyone... who has a podcast is talking about this. You know, it's the Twitter file... Well they're not talking about the way we're talking about it No correct and I just would like to point out that the Twitter files you know which is sure just a little piece of information Matt Taibbi all these people are willful I won't say idiots because they're actually quite smart Useful idiots! That's what Taibbi calls himself He IS a useful idiot because this if dare I use the term

1:07:35 This is all a limited hangout because people who already believe, yeah. Since it's a term it makes you sound like you know what you're talking about It's being used for people who already know that the FBI is corrupt and the whole world has gone crazy upside down. It's confirmation so you can go blahblahblah See I told ya! and you can be targeted as a nutjob by the media because the media is not... The only person reporting on it is Tucker Carlson. You should go look, which he's a racist, he says misogynist, he's a puppet for Putin whatever people... He's a puttin' for Putin! A puffin' for Putin And just to see how it works

CHAPTER 23 / 48 Discussion

Dr. Mercola Deplatforming, Censorship of Censorship

The hosts discuss the disappearance of health advocate Dr. Mercola from mainstream platforms, noting that the "censorship of the censorship" makes it difficult for the public to realize information is being suppressed. They compare this to the recent removal of Newsmax from certain cable providers.

dr. mercola· censorship· disinfo dozen· deplatforming· newsmax

1:08:23 Watch Tucker Carlson show keep it on then watch Sean Hannity say nothing. What's Sean Hannity go and talk about this panel? Oh, yeah, we're gonna get him I'm gonna get him It's its it might as well not have happened Yeah was a Tina's friend, about the same age. They were terror twins in Chicago together and she is not quite as reddened as we are of course because that is what we do all day long and she said you know... She was all about health and really liked reading Dr. Mercola and it was weird because I couldn't find him anymore he was gone for awhile didn't know what happened to him

1:09:05 So we know that he was the top of the list of the disinfo dozen it was deplatformed from everywhere But most people wife, but most people like I couldn't find him. They have no idea That falls back on that clip We played this censorship of the censorship Clip where this guy made the observation that the censorship itself is being censored and so you end up with people like that saying I don't know You know, that not realizing this was going on. Which I find to be the most fascinating thing because it's really... It worked! Censor the censorship That's how you make hay And most people were just so got so tired of it all that they've tuned out So yeah, pick up People magazine maybe USA Today might catch a headline but are really not interested anymore

CHAPTER 24 / 48 Discussion

Jeffrey Clark Interview, Biden Documents, Ron Klain Exit

Former Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Clark discusses the House subcommittee's investigation into the FBI and the Biden classified documents scandal. The segment also covers the emotional departure of White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, which Clark suggests is a strategic exit ahead of further investigations.

jeffrey clark· joe biden· classified documents· ron klain· hunter biden· fbi

1:10:02 And so then, you know when things go away it's like I don't know. You know it was like what? Newsmax! I kind of like watching Newsmax they can't find him anymore no No They've also everything has been deplatformed So What this results in is just fodder for for podcasts. Well this will give you all the background you need these clips. Alright, let's get to them. And this will get it out of the way. We'll start over. The House's new select subcommittee on the weaponization of the federal government is kicking into action reportedly sending letters this past Friday to five subjects who may also be subpoenaed if they're unresponsive

1:10:45 The panel says it will investigate potential misconduct by the FBI, Justice Department and the intelligence community among others. Earlier today I spoke with attorney and former assistant Attorney General at the Justice Department Jeffrey Clark for his thoughts. Jeffrey Clark welcome to our show. Thanks was the point of that effect? I'm sorry NTD Hey, I know we'll spice it up. We're gonna spice up our coverage with some sound yeah Yeah They by the way I will mention that I usually take those out because you've got enough bitching and moaning about NTD cuz I hate them I do kind of and I usually take those little just swishes out but that when I for some reason I heard it when I was editing is a

1:11:32 Leave it in, leave it in. Thank you. Attorney General, I appreciate it. But the Justice Department, Jeffrey Clark for his thoughts. Jeffrey Clark welcome to our show thanks so much for joining us. Well it's great to be here thanks for having me Now a new house subcommittee is investigating what they say is a concerted effort by the government to cancel conservatives They and many others say Americans are feeling targeted What are your thoughts on this? Well, look I think it's a very target rich environment to key off of your word. There are so many things that the new weaponization subcommittee that we called for here at the Center for Renewing America could look into.

1:12:17 several quickly, you know the Twitter files. The Biden documents, the Mar-a-Lago raid as compared to the Biden documents. Tim Tebow, the FBI whistleblowers, parents being targeted and harassed Mark Houck, the anti abortion prayer warrior being targeted and then acquitted I mean just so many things that could be examined Oh yes, and it's all just trolling. It's gaslighting almost. Here is the thing... What is the Tim Tebow thing? I don't know about the Tim Tebow thing. That's old isn't it? You mentioned specifically Tim Tebow in that laundry list Yes, but isn't that old? Isn't because he was a Christian and talked about it

1:13:13 I don't think so. That happens, but that's not... Yeah that was the controversy over him! No, I don't think so. I think so! Somebody in the ER... Have you noticed this patrol room? The patrol room is useless! Phoebe!! Let's say there was that dog back in the background sounds terrific by the way and it yeah I have the door a deep echo. Okay, I asked the AI Here's the AI What was the Tim Tebow controversy come on AI can I be of assistance? He bow has been the subject of controversy since his college days due to as well liked and disliked reputation as well As this story about faith and perseverance Yes This is a faith issue

1:14:01 The debate surrounding Thiebaud is not just about him but about people and religion in sports which supporters and detractors alike react to criticism as an indictment of religion. Yes, it was him praying on the field or something like that Yes, this is what it was about. That goes back for decades! I know it does! I know it does! Alright anyway play clip 2 let's go on NTD is an old school... They're reporting on decades ago you should stop this outfit And like you mentioned the subcommittee says that will examine ways that the FBI DOJ and Homeland Security may have been weaponized against Americans but also the agency's possible neglect Wait was he killed by friendly fire? Wasn't that the issue? Was that Tim Tebow

1:14:47 No, no that's the guy Pat Watson. Oh, that's another one Shut up trolls! ...and probing the Hunter Biden laptop story what are your concerns in regards to that? Well, look. I mean Hunter Biden laptop has been over at DOJ at Bill Barr's DOJ no less in which I served since 2019 so that something that should have been looked out a lot harder and a lot faster and we may be seeing that the Biden documents scandal which recently emerged on January 9th, that really does trace back to investigations into the Hunter Biden laptop. That's not clear at this point but there was just breaking news before you began this interview that CBS News had learned that actually the Justice Department searched the Biden Penn Center in quote unquote mid-November and what is mid November? I mean it's after November 2nd which we're told is when

1:15:51 Biden's people themselves found documents at the Biden Penn Center, but was it before the election or after the election? And why is it such vague terminology about mid-November. It seems odd." And you've said that this issue with Biden's classified documents could be his undoing What do yo think about the timing there and if there are any concerns around what they're saying? This guy is no better than pool boy Oh yeah, the coincidental timing of our funded documents November. What happened in November? Come on man you're gonna give me six minutes of this it better get better in clip three. It gets really good okay well I think we've begun to see that there are even former officials advisors affiliated with the Clinton administration like David Gergen and Dick Morris who started to realize

1:16:44 how serious this is for the Biden administration. We've seen Ron Klain make good his exit as the White House Chief of Staff so that he can plausibly claim that he had nothing to do with this issue and that this is a mess that emerged later in the Biden administration, I think it's very dangerous for them You certainly don't want to be going into a presidential campaign with a special counsel having been newly appointed to look into an issue that you've had, that stretches back far longer than the Trump documents. It stretches back now not just to the Biden vice presidency but to Biden's time in the Senate based on documents that were found at his Wilmington home as the reporting has shown.

1:17:32 And coming back to this subcommittee, Hold on. Before we go back to the sub-committee in this riveting interview... 15 seconds of Ron Klain and his goodbye speech at the White House I learned everything i know about how to be a good father from Joe Biden He is the best father I know and the best role model I know! Along the way he's taught me a thing or two about politics and policy as well Man, that crying that he does there. That's like almost it's like a eulogy Wow! Wow yes wow I'm kidding I'm not... Seriously listen to this No joke man Listen to this crying again at the beginning I learned everything i know about how to be a good father from Joe Biden He is the best father I know and the best role model I know Is he Joe Biden son?

CHAPTER 25 / 48 Discussion

Spies in Politics, James Meek, Child Pornography Charges

The hosts speculate on the role of intelligence agencies in domestic politics, referencing the case of former ABC News producer James Meek. Meek, whose home was raided by the FBI, has recently been charged with transporting child pornography, which the hosts suggest may be a method of deplatforming individuals with sensitive information.

james meek· abc news· fbi· child pornography· hunter biden· espionage

1:18:31 illegitimate son, you think? I don't know. What is this about and first of all he's getting kicked out He's not leaving because he wants to leave. He got kicked out no doubt about it Well let's stop here for a second and talk about you know is it possible You're this whole thing about the Biden laptop is Hunter Biden laptop yeah at this point you have to start assuming that hunter biden was a spook double agent And you now have to assume that maybe Joe Biden's a spook. That's why he has all these secret documents. So if Joe Biden is a spook, somebody put him in office... You put a spook in there and it's like here we go. Like Obama was a spook too! I'm sorry that's racist you can't say that! You can't say that! Wooo so wrong! He was a spy yeah so Fed because there's no other reason for this laptop to be in limbo forever unless somebody said hey

1:19:37 This stuff in here we okay. All right this I like this, but they were FBI level spies not CIA You don't know that? I'm just thinking that it goes to be State Department Spies and then that little group that that's the creepiest of all the spooks so Oh Wow ma'am well yeah, I see it CIA does not only reason is drug use yet No, I'm with you. I'm with you on that home Okay, well so then people will have to die. People are gonna start dying. We might take a chance! Remember that the journalist whose house was raided couple months ago? A producer ABC News producer yeah vaguely and also he's like an award-winning news producer

1:20:39 I vaguely remember this, but I don't know if you have any clips. Let me see...I don't think we had a clip but James Meek there we go James Meek let me just see before i give it the punchline of this story James Meek now I don't have anything on Meek I wonder if if we guess we didn't have producer producer ABC and now anyway he So the FBI raided his home everyone and he went quiet, and then he resigned in April. And now headline ex-ABC news reporter is charged with transporting child pornography so whatever this guy had they're really deplatforming him yeah that's the way to go This is...yeah! I'm kind of thinking that's what they got to do to that guy who popped the Pelosi story

CHAPTER 26 / 48 Discussion

Congressional Subpoena Power, Power of the Purse

Jeffrey Clark emphasizes that the House must use its "power of the purse" to compel the executive branch to release documents. He notes that if the administration refuses to cooperate with the weaponization subcommittee, the situation could ripen into impeachment proceedings.

congress· subpoena· impeachment· executive branch· funding

1:21:48 You know that because we were talking about him winding up dead or you know he'd get a raise and no I think child porn is the way to go. It's easy throw it on throw it on the laptop uh Get in there raid There's their stuff going, there's big moves going on. I think there's cleanups taking place um i'm even thinking I hate to say it but I think hunter may have to go but like I don't know. Troubled, he's troubled. He's troubled and coming back to this subcommittee the subcommittee can access the most highly classified information in Congress and it has subpoena power do you think it will be able to get answers that other committees or subcommittees won't or can't reveal? Well I think it needs to press to get those results as hard as possible we

1:22:41 We know what the tools for that are. First, Congress and in particular the House needs to use its power of the purse which is one of its foremost constitutional powers to make sure that if the executive branch is refusing to share the necessary documents that they can look into it. I'd also note that some of these issues obviously go to or could ripen into impeachment proceedings at some point Yeah, doubtful. The thing is when you listen to this thing with the notion that we're really dealing with spy agencies going after each other and the Republican...and everybody knows what's going on behind-the-scenes

1:23:26 or at least not everybody, but a good portion of the people know what's going on behind the scenes. But they have to couch it in different ways so they don't alert the public really there just is all smoke screen for whatever else is really going on who knows what? It makes it little more interesting. It's definitely more intriguing. Yeah So let's go with I don't know what clip we're on last one four and clearly those wait before you play four This better be killer. It's better have a great payoff that there's no pay off But before you play for I have a clip just an I think it's the same clip But I sent it to you because I wanted to know if it would work Because I when I was doing okay, so my machine blew up do a point where I have to like go to new machines Yeah So I had to do all this on the on this particular machine with these edits which I why left stuff in but

CHAPTER 27 / 48 Discussion

Audio Formats, Ogg Vorbis, Lame Encoder

A technical discussion ensues regarding audio file formats, specifically the Ogg Vorbis format and the Lame MP3 encoder. One host recalls interviewing the inventor of the Ogg format and discusses the efficiency of different file sizes for podcast distribution.

ogg vorbis· mp3· ffmpeg· audio engineering· podcasting

1:24:25 I sent over, because i'm doing all these edits and then they say holy crap these are all WAV files! Oh yeah. And so I said oh... So I gotta get the lame.dll file What are you even talking about? Oh, well. It's the lame. It's not la-may. I had to pronounce it lamé because lame is dumb. It's the Lame Encoder FFmpeg lame and you're a lamé oh do you drink Argele? Instead of Argyle? You go to Tarjay okay! Okay so you made your point...I DO go to Tarjay So uh... I decided to save one in Aug

1:25:10 Okay, and you sent this to me? This aug stuff? Yeah. Government for Aug It doesn't even show up hold on a second Oh it doesn't show up in my... I mean gov okay let me just do dot aug Okay, here let's see if it'll even play. Yeah it will play and clearly those begin in the house So which one do you want me to play? It's the same one I just wanted to know they're just the same as the other one except there's government five There's an extra file is a bonus once you skip the four and play government 5 Okay, so the aug works. The aug works aug is a great format if you send all I'm happy with that And it's not the reason I say that is because the aug for take a look at government targets for an aug 4 Oh, yeah, there's a difference is huge and have to look I know this That's what your but your yeah, the size of an aug file is smaller smaller

1:26:07 Then at mp3 did you know that there is an an og version of this show with an RSS feed? No, I did not know that. Yes Yeah Well That's the kind of show we are because we are The best podcast in the universe well years and years ago nothing just interrupt these fabulous clips But years and years ago. I had the inventor of the OG format on my radio show Mr.. Vorbis I was always grilling him about, you know why do you name it something that... Og Vorbis? You know what's like a Klingon. What's the point and so what was the answer he never had a good answer but it was he was a nice guy so I kind of admired him So here is government five in play with detractors say this subcommittee is meant to stoke distrust between the government and people What do you say to that yes

1:27:05 I think after the highly scripted January 6th committee hearings, it's very ironic to hear that. Republicans are proposing to run these committees entirely above board and in a balanced fashion there will be a ranking member from the Democrats on each of these committees. There will be representation or they will not be throwing people willy nilly off of committees because Nancy Pelosi fears that a Jim Banks or a Jim Jordan might put out another side of the story about January 6th and cross-examine witnesses. We're gonna see a fair process, so I think the idea that this is just some sort of counter weaponization process or however the Democrats wanna characterize it is wrong. The process these Republicans in the House are gonna run will be entirely fair and above board

CHAPTER 28 / 48 Discussion

George Santos, Brazilian Culture, Dog Cancer Scam

Representative George Santos is under FBI investigation for allegedly stealing $3,000 from a GoFundMe campaign intended to pay for a homeless veteran's dog's cancer treatment. The hosts discuss Santos's background and joke that "he kills dogs" is the ultimate political liability.

george santos· brazil· fbi· gofundme· navy veteran· animal cruelty

1:27:59 There you go. Alright, Jeffrey Clark attorney and former acting assistant attorney general for the Civil Division really appreciate your time Yeah thanks just all mine So okay here's another FBI taking someone down. We haven't really followed the story because who cares but now it just got funny this is the George Santos who was... Oh, George Santos yeah I actually have a George Santos clip Yeah but i'm gonna play my clip it's only 24 seconds because we need to get rid of this guy someone needs to get rid of this guy for whatever reason Yeah. Is it an NTD clip? Tell me, what do you have now I just have George this says George Santos and I don't know that is let's listen by the way Santos is a major Portuguese name so I should mention but I should tell my Brazil story Brazilians in general are liars by nature really

1:28:54 Now is that just Brazilians or people who also speak Portuguese? I think it's Brazilians, but I think it does stem from Portugal. I'd never noticed so much in Portugal, but when I first went to Brazil before even started writing for Brazilian publications...I went there because I was invited and I went with Jerry Parnell as a matter of fact we went down to see RIP Parnell to see this big, this giant trade show that was in Brazil that was supposedly the biggest in the world and it kept getting promoted as the biggest in the world with a million people that go to this thing.

1:29:35 And it was a lie. It was, it was a piece of crap! No the trade show was reasonable but we there were a couple of bottlenecks where you could count people and you could do... We both did this You can count the number of people going in and out and you can make a calculation how many people actually could possibly attend it Now we could not get over 190 thousand people No matter how you did the calculation. So this was bullcrap and so I started dawning on me, and it's from other experiences that the Brazilians... And if you think about Brazil, Brazil was formed... The Portuguese were given the option by Spain How big is this country? You want to claim? You have to have visited every part of it to tell us where have you been! And so they lied

1:30:23 They said, well we were up here and we were way over here. And they took this huge swath of South America based on bullshit there is no way they explored Brazil it's too big that's interesting the Spanish who are I guess as much as the Portuguese Brazilians are liars the Spanish are gullible and they gave them that big swath of property And I think that is the genesis of the Brazilian lie. The Brazilian lie? This is great, the Brazilian lie! And this is all supposition but I believe Santos comes from that culture and that's why he came in with this full-of-shit stuff When I was told he was a Brazilian it's first thing I said to myself, Of course

1:31:10 They lie! Representative George Santos told House Republicans today that he wants out of his two committee assignments. His decision comes as prosecutors are investigating his personal and campaign finances Reporters waiting outside of the Capitol asked the Congressman if Speaker Kevin McCarthy told him to step down. Nobody tells me to do anything, I made a decision on my own that I thought best represented the interests of the people. Lie! Pardon me guys? Guys you gotta relax, they're assaulting at that point. I think it was an appropriate decision until he could clear everything up and he's off committees right now

1:31:47 McCarthy has faced harsh criticism for assigning Santos to the Small Business Committee and the Science, Space & Technology Committee. The assignments came after Santos admitted to lying about much of his resume. Santos said he's not stepping down from office and that the only way he'd leave is if he loses in the next election. A new poll by Newsday and Siena College shows that 78% of voters in Santos' district who responded to the survey want him to step down The view is supported by 71% of Republican respondents, 72% of independents and 89% of Democrats. Well the FBI is getting rid of this guy and here's how they're doing it Tonight CBS News has confirmed embattled New York Congressman George Santos Is being investigated by the FBI over allegations that he stole $3,000 raised online to treat a homeless Navy veteran cancer stricken dog

1:32:44 The veteran says Santos did not hand over the funds and the dog died in 2017. And the dog died! Santos denies the allegations So, the new thing of the children is he kills dogs You know, you have to give whoever came up with this one... credit! ...you have to give him kudos for having a sense of humor. Big kudos for that. Well done. Well done. He stole money from a gofundme for a veteran whose dog had cancer and the dog died This guy is the lowest of the low. And notice, it's CBS News who breaks this! Of course! Yeah I love it

CHAPTER 29 / 48 Discussion

Western Australia, Missing Radioactive Capsule Found

Authorities in Western Australia successfully located a tiny radioactive capsule containing Cesium-137 that fell off a truck in the desert. The search involved specialized radiation detection equipment and covered hundreds of kilometers of highway, with the device eventually found just two meters from the roadside.

1:33:29 That's great. We're doomed! We personally are not doomed No, because we're doing it the right way. Laugh at that! The genius of it all They're probably like you know we hate those Korean Dvorak guys but they do give us props for the excellent work we do so just let them go Let's see what else they come up with that's a that suits keeping us going so keeping us alive All right, good news. Good news everybody on the climate change front You no longer have to be worried about nuclear energy because we found it now I'm trying but dangerously radioactive capsule that fell off a truck along a remote stretch of desert highway in Western Australia last month has been found authorities scoured by the way, I just want to read a note from one of our producers and

1:34:23 Gents, these things these capsules with cesium-137 inside are super common and readily available. Usually used as an emission source for density or liquid flow testing equipment typically used for mining It might be determining the flow rate through a pipe containing mine waste slurry or soil compaction or erosion density testing. I'm unsure how many of these capsules exist currently, but i'd make an estimate that every major city has between 100 and 500 in various pieces of equipment These capsules are even used to irradiate food sometimes

1:34:58 He says, oh really? Yes. The amount of capsules is minute not like you could make up a dirt and make a dirty bomb out of it or anything they are dangerous the concern is someone would pick it up and take at home placing where they would continue to be exposed in my soil radiation yes in my soil testing days during some training we were told a story one these capsule became separated from road density testing equipment years before and sat on stockpile gravel before being used in a batch of concrete to build an apartment building. Several residents of the apartment where the capsule rested died of leukemia I suspect mine is worried about the liability if someone getting injured all of ours had etched serial numbers, the media took the ball and ran another direction with this news so they found it

1:35:44 and uh... it was good news everybody found authorities scoured hundreds of kilometers of highway in search of the tiny capsule the six day hunt came to an end after a search vehicle detected radiation while traveling along the highway with authorities now working to safely remove the capsule before taking it to a secure location. around 100 personnel and that included teams from fire and emergency services as well as teams from a nuclear science and technology organization. By the way, do you remember what we recommended or what you recommended is a way to find this thing?

1:36:33 Use a radiation detector that's at long range with us. This 8mm by 6mm device around the size of a grain of rice was found off the side of a highway in a remote part of Western Australia, authorities likening this search to literally finding a needle in a haystack How it was found is that one of the search vehicles was driving down the highway at around 70 kilometers per hour when radioactivity was detected on a device. Then, a portable device was used to find the exact location of this capsule around two meters from the side of the highway. They made such a big deal of this story! Oh goodness well they found it

CHAPTER 30 / 48 Discussion

Food Irradiation, E. Coli Prevention

The discussion turns to the use of radiation to sterilize food and prevent bacterial outbreaks like E. coli. While effective for safety and shelf-life, the hosts express concern that the food industry might use irradiation to mask poor hygiene and low-quality ingredients.

food irradiation· sterilization· e. coli· food safety· pasteurization

1:37:16 And one other story I want to handle before we go to a break, some form of... Well before you leave that story. I just want to mention that this sort of thing is this radiation that comes off stuff like this for food irradiation right? It doesn't make the food radioactive it sterilizes it and as we should be using this in some of our foods today to keep E. coli from getting into the food supply Yes. And I've thought about this and people reject it because they think that the kind of radiation you use to sterilize food is not radioactive, it's not like alpha particles or anything that make things radioactive. It's a very

1:37:59 well proven technique and most ultra pasteurized products have been irradiated like that to make them so they last pretty much forever. But I've concluded over time that the problem with this is that they would end up, because they can radiate dog shit and pretty much inoculate it from anything, our food industry, the way they operate would be so careless it would be eating cow shit pretty much instead of steaks What says we're not already? I'm pretty sure we're not that's what you would get be getting E. coli problems so is he but he is e coli a bug thing or is that a result of some of E. coli as a bacteria to back to us and do we have naturally in our stomachs, but there's a couple of bad ones if you get them in your system they they Ravage your your organs and you end up dead again a downer Sorry

Pfizer Employee Video, Project Veritas, 2021 Rideshare Email

The hosts revisit a 2021 email from a rideshare driver who overheard Pfizer employees discussing vaccine testing and variants. They compare those claims to recent undercover footage from Project Veritas featuring a Pfizer executive discussing "directed evolution" of viruses and the revolving door between the FDA and big pharma.

pfizer· project veritas· jordan trishton walker· gain-of-function· aspirin· vaccines

1:39:02 Now, a very big diner. So here's something that I think... I'm going to see if i can find this so we have this Pfizer guy who I- They're still testing aspirin! Adam Curry John Cena Sorry that was not- What the hell? Yeah uh I jumped the gun on that one sorry about that. Let me see if I can just cue this up We have this Jordan Tristan guy who was out on a date. Yeah you have a funny kind of nickname form that you use in emails What did I say? I can't remember but it's pretty crappy The Nut Job, the nutty Pfizer dude whatever it is It was probably derogatory So just so we're clear again I think this

1:40:00 Really not surprising, you know the way it was spawned and I like Project Veritas. You know The executive director is a no agenda. Actually think he said maybe be a baron or maybe a baron if I count even He's a baron i think But I feel that they were kind of used again, you know just to have some great video I mean this guy was so off the wall that he could say it was really crazy can't take this guy serious for anything In my mind, so whatever he was saying. The most damning thing he said is hey it's a revolving door between the FDA and the pharma companies and okay great but one of our producers reached out and said hey do you remember that you had an email from a producer who was either Lyft or Uber driver

1:40:47 and had some Pfizer, well I guess it was undetermined if it was Pfizer or Moderna but you had the note. It was sent to you. I didn't have this note Yeah, I remember And heard some really weird stuff between some Pfizer dudes in his car Do you still have that note? I doubt it. Okay, well...I went back and read it but I think I read on the show and that was the episode 1382 and that is from September 2021 let's listen see if we'll actually play wow that was really It's not an honor.

1:41:40 China had epidemic levels of the virus as early as June 2019. The lab leak theory is absolutely... Wait, wait, June 2019? That's way before the October war games where everyone's claiming it started that's interesting okay Although if you think about it War Games may have been triggered by this I think was on the calendar It was scheduled but okay yeah How far out was the schedule? I don't know. It's just speculation, the lab leak theory is absolutely true and it was the janitorial staff of the Wuhan Lab that got infected and spread it outside the lab before they all died We're gonna get to some nuttier stuff but it's kind of interesting to go back and listen to this email that was sent from 2021 which now turns out pretty much check out what our

1:42:41 Our, um... rideshare driver overheard in the car. Had to be shut down. Woah! Bombshell! Bombshell! Hold on a second- We remember that we've done stories about the lab shutdown that were suppressed, remember? Bombshell Yes. It's bombshell. You guys gotta keep that in there, it's bombshell. Denny tells some stuff here that I'm leaving out because it has a...it has either it is not true or it is proprietary and I don't know what to say about that. Now do you remember what that was? No. Okay, great! Well done. Processing... no I mean I don't remember... I purposefully throw these notes out afterwards and I'm very good at protecting sources because A.) I don't remember some of these details that i don't remember and B.) I toss these things so these guys can not worry about sending me stuff well here comes the meat of the email it's proprietary to Pfizer and I'm not okay but you'll tell them you'll tell me later right

1:43:42 I could, yes sure. Okay. I could also say it because i'm a journalist by technically but...I'm not in the business of giving Moderna somebody else's information because it doesn't help anybody else to know this too. Is it marketing information? Formulaic information? Yes formulaic. Pfizer is very proud of the product they've made because they didn't take any government or private money to develop their vaccine so that can stay independent They look down on Moderna for taking money from Bill Gates The Pfizer vaccine should get emergency use authorization for 5 to 11 year olds in the next few days. Yes, I know they're really pushing that and they want to do babies too! They want to do 6 months old... Oh yeah, oh yeah, I hope that's in the note It was the fact that the EU approved a US vaccine that prompted the FDA to fully approve the Pfizer vaccine

1:44:34 Pfizer is not concerned about the Delta variant. While it is very contagious, that's a mild form of the virus which we've been discussing since the beginning. The testing of the vaccine is not over and will not be over for a very long time they said It takes many years to truly understand any virus or medication developed to fight it And mentioned that they're still testing aspirin and ibuprofen Which has been on the market for years as an example Wait a minute, did he say that or were they saying that in the car? That's what I think the guy used as an example. You know they're still testing aspirin and ibuprofen... I'm sure there is something here that most important to remember. Still testing aspirin! I am just giving it a little variety there. No, no, I like it

1:45:22 Variants are named like hurricanes and the names go in alphabetical order and we're ready on M mu And they really didn't care about Delta or Lambda They're concerned about people contracting two variants at the same time and having super mutation from that This kind of checks out what this guy was talking about whether he was doing it involved in it or not But it sounds like Pfizer must be Pfizer, was testing things In their own labs Wait, super mutation? How come this isn't a headline? Come on. Super Mutation! My god we're so good. Damn. Yeah the uh I think the thing i forgot... I'd like me some super mutations baby. Am I still on are you still playing the clip? There we go yes

1:46:16 Well, it's just... is there anything more to it? I think that's pretty... Okay. I thought so! Let me just finish it up. Hold on. The politics surrounding the pandemic and the vaccines are unbelievably intense or more so than what the public knows. In other words, well, I think people listened this show and they were pretty intense. Ah shit, I thought there was something important there Yes, you're gonna say yeah I think the thing that I was not didn't discuss it with some specific It was either the some protein they used in the one vaccine or they use something cheap. The Moderna vaccine has some cheap

1:46:56 element and the Pfizer people put something better in there. I guess what i'm trying to communicate here is that none of this is surprising all it does is just gives more gas for stupid podcasts they go, ahh they're gonna function! How about this was just the flu? And we gaslighted everybody into being terrified of it and you're not allowed to think anything any other way at this moment in time. You have to think now Pfizer was involved in gain-of-function I think were way beyond that point, this whole thing was unnecessary the killing people with ventilator protocols that the ventilator operators thought was dumb That's...this all came from

1:47:42 Gaslighting the whole world. Well, you gotta remember that ventilator thing started from Cuomo bitchin' and moanin' that they don't have enough ventilators and then Trump falling for it in making a bunch of extra ones with I think they're in landfill now there's so many of them. He had Ford shut down and create ventilators from whatever parts they had So all of this, all of this is I think at this point in time just to keep the alternative media talking about little stuff that doesn't matter. The World Health Organization will determine your future That's what i see See the problem with the World Health Organization has always been that woman, that Chinese woman who was running it and who declared a pandemic over the swine flu coming out of Mexico Remember that?

1:48:43 And she called us pandemic and nobody paid attention. Because no one cared? It was like a dry run or something, or nobody believed her she was... lacked credibility I don't know what it was but i found that whole swine flu thing which we covered on our show Yes There were people lined up for the shot And there's Albany Library, took a movie of him around the block at like going to think it Star Wars was opening there. And it just never caught on like this thing did Well, that's because we had TikTok and we had Chinese videos of people keeling over dead from this mysterious virus. Yeah, remember the sprays? They had this guy wearing a hazmat suit and spraying some weird foam or some spray on people... Was that DDT? And pulling the guy out of the car and beating him! Oh yeah! But that was an exercise but it didn't look like it We've been so scammed for so long

1:49:44 It's really and I don't know maybe some of the wheels are coming off here But I just know I think these people get thrown out these total idiots like this Tristan Jordan Jordan Tristan That that guy can't seriously be in an organization like Pfizer. I mean he's there, but even said no I'm a consultant now that guy is really fishy Yeah, yeah, it's like a plant And then he goes nuts, you see the after movie where... Yeah it's fantastic. That's the best part! He is calling me, there are four white men talking to me I don't feel safe Meanwhile he was on a date with a white guy to try and get some of that white penis I guess So oh but too many now there are four I can't handle that Goodness gracious Alright so the thing we have not touched on

CHAPTER 32 / 48 Discussion

Tyre Nichols, Police Reform, Qualified Immunity

The death of Tyre Nichols in Memphis has sparked renewed calls for police reform and the abolition of qualified immunity. Reverend Al Sharpton and Vice President Kamala Harris attended the funeral, while the hosts discuss the potential for "policeless traffic stops" and the ideological motivations behind the movement to abolish traditional law enforcement.

tyre nichols· memphis· al sharpton· qualified immunity· police brutality· communism

1:50:46 the transition of Tyree Nichols from a non-racial police killing to just the police killing back to racism. Which is, and you know when when you have an operation because clearly this was not racially motivated because the five cops were black Although did you see they found a six cop? They found a white one

1:51:21 Yeah, the white cop who looks like a non-binary guy? Yes. I think that... And he's the one supposedly who kept saying stomp him! Stomp him! No no no, he was the ringleader It was his idea Trust me That guy is no ringleader of anything He was the ringleader He is the ringleader Whoopi Goldberg is pulled out of the stable to bring this back to race But you know When will the brutality finally lead to some police reform from the ground up because Clearly, it doesn't matter if it's a white policeman or black policeman. It is a problem in the policing itself. Seems things

1:52:03 Don't seem to make sense to people unless it's somebody they can feel or they can recognize But how many times do we have? Do we need to see white people also get beaten before anybody will do anything. I'm not said there is Right us and tell me what a you know, what a racist I am Yeah Okay There it is. Well, there it is It would not have happened if it was your eye then we would out of beaten senseless end-to-death Yeah, that would be happy. So the thing I'm still kind of following is in the newsletter the notion that the cop or that guy was having an affair with one of the cops whose partner was one of those five guys

1:52:53 Yeah, that one and so the partner was like either doing it on behalf of his partner It wasn't one of the guy with the with the wife having the affair with that kid Was not in amongst the guys beating him. But the partner was He was a one of them We take care of our own here yeah And so that kind of thing and if you look at a picture of the guy You can see him being kind of a ladies man but I always imagine If I was writing it as a story for to rip from the headlines, that would have this one element in there which is not we can't even prove that part of it but just assume that we can and we're doing a storyline. It would go like this hey what did you do? You guys beat the partner whose wife's having an affair. You beat the guy to death and he goes and sees his wife says that guy who were having an affair with has been beaten to death, I'm sorry

1:53:48 She says, I wasn't having an affair with him. I just said I was. Oof! That to me is the way you'd write that up as a nice drama Well this of course is being hyped by the media To try and get to try and kick something off because that's what the media likes to follow And so they can say hey, it was a peaceful protest or whatever. They want we know that the people behind this particular move are the party of socialism and liberation the Marxist communists and you know they're really trying to

1:54:28 make hay out of this and CBS participates. But I'm trying to figure out how it even got to this point, even the police chief in Memphis seems to be questioning whether it was a legitimate traffic stop what can you tell us about how it went so wrong? So quickly and so violently well we believe the scorpion unit uh... this organized crime unit commonly referred to as cities at the jump out boys I'm not sure that's true, that this type of view is called the jump out boys and i will find out. Many in the white community have never heard of but in the offices. I'm white That's why of course black community and brown community is these police officers that jump out all of a sudden they swarm you and they're very aggressive, and they normally are trampling on your constitutional rights And you see it in Tyree's video where they start cursing at him and being so aggressive from beginning to Tyree say what did I do?

1:55:31 So they bring in Reverend Al who is connected to the Marxists and the communists, and the PSL in this case. And they also brought Kamala Harris out for the funeral was a big to-do broadcast live of course And I think the only thing worth really playing here is Reverend Al because he hits on the political part. This is really what needs to happen and this is what did not happen, although brought up with George Floyd, is the qualified immunity. This is what needs to be removed so that cops will heal which of course has had the exact opposite

1:56:16 result where cops don't want to be cops if they don't have qualified immunity and they're leaving the force en masse. And what happens? All of these cops I think were between 22 and 26 years old I mean, you're technically a moron at that age still. Was there any seniority there? And I didn't see any! So here's what Reverend Al says needs to happen and you tell me how that's going to work out for law enforcement in the United States If you don't have qualified immunity your wife would be telling you before you leave home behave yourself because we could lose the house

1:56:58 We could lose the car behave yourself Because our savings can't be gone you want to be a tough guy well Let's get rid of qualified immunity and see if you learn the same manners You have on the white side of town. You'll have some manners on the black side of town. Yeah, thanks for the racial pullout So because of qualified immunity, black cops will kill black people but not white people. Not quite sure I guess they're more careful on the white side of town? What a crock of shit! Well Reverend Howell you don't understand how are they going to keep crime down in the black community and at the same time not be tough and rough

1:57:55 Well, they do it the same way they do it on the white side of Memphis. And they keep the crime down without being rough and tough How do you have the same department that can keep crime down one side of town? Without beating folk to death But you cant' do it on the other side of town Unless you feel like you could get away with it there I can't speak for everybody in Memphis. I can't speak for everybody gathering, but for me, I believe if that man had been white you wouldn't have beat him like that that night Thank You Al We're not asking for nothing special we're asking to be treated equal It's amazing it's amazing how he pulls that off

1:59:00 Just it's completely racial now, but a qualified immunity that has to go. And what you're going... I don't have clips but i'm gonna have some and bring them in they're gonna have to stage this uh and the first thing that's gonna go is there was a woman on Democracy Now! I didn't get the clip from her, we're gonna get those who is the head of the abolished police one of the abolished police, they want to abolish the police. But they are going to first promote the idea of no-police traffic stops. They think this is a way to go you do it by staging one thing then another and then you build yourself up and this is... The problem is policing in this country we're lawless culture

1:59:59 And so if you don't have traffic stops, it's going to be a nightmare driving around which is fine with them because you should be on a bicycle anyway. Well I can tell you exactly what is already happening. What was going to happen is cops are leaving en masse and I know that there's a lot of them live around here. What are they doing? They're going into private security forces who were then hired to protect gated communities It's not even a black or white thing. It's rich versus poor and the poor neighborhoods are going to get cameras You're gonna get drones you're gonna get all kinds of automated policing And yeah, but policeless traffic stops it is going to be like Demolition man, it's gonna be a nightmare. It is and they want this and when I say they

2:00:52 I mean, the communists! This is called what it is. The Communists want this because that's total control and a lot of America is going to slip into it because Reverend Al is able to bring in the racial component into this Yeah, it's pretty tricky. It's really good! I mean it's not a good result but... Well, I mean it is not good for anybody but it's an excellent process the way they're trying to do it They don't get very far this sort of thing we get there are backlashes that occur We'll see if it's gonna be interesting. I would just could end up like Mexico like in Mexico the it becomes kind of

2:04:48 The new movie meet the comrades and sure enough he put Lenin and Marx right there with a lie detector And use the whole movie poster meet the comrades, and that was I think it was kind of best one we looked at other some other things but It just worked. It was well done too. It was it was a nicely done as a fake movie poster Yeah liked it The other ones... Tickets and the pop, yeah everything. It was just a nice piece Yeah what else was there? Was there anything that we saw that we liked? I liked it the recycling one but it was kind of too small Well the green one, the green recycle, it just wasn't exciting!

jingles· eric adams· klaus schwab· ze bugs· audio production

2:33:09 Hang out with all the nights and days You wanna be where you won't be Triggered or held to blame And you wanna be where everybody feels the same It's like a party Okay, um I have a couple of assholes...I think Hold on a second Yes.

You will eat ze bugs! Good as well. I like this one. Good job good job

CHAPTER 38 / 48 Discussion

Egg Cracking, Transgender Mandate, Big Pharma Fears

The hosts discuss the concept of "egg cracking" in online trans communities and a recent court ruling that blocked a Biden administration mandate requiring doctors to perform gender transition procedures. They express concern over the influence of the pharmaceutical industry on pediatric medicine and gender ideology.

egg cracking· transgender· biden administration· hhs· big pharma· court ruling

2:34:51 Yeah, use it as a... Now before we continue I want to play a clip from a couple shows ago we never got too. Okay And this is from TikTok and you're looking under talk egg cracking and there's two clips actually but this is a You familiar with egg cracking? I am hold on second. I just gotta bring it up here Yes because I know what these clips are No, you've seen him. But I... no, I mean hey man do you think i'm behind the world or something? Hey man! Hey man! Hey man, I've seen all these clips. Again, these are long You know you're kind of violating all clips Yeah but this clip- I got it that's why didn't play him before but this clip is a guy detransitioning and he's been suing some doctors and I think he's gonna get some attention for this for malpractice for For I guess I don't know what happened to them, but it doesn't sound pleasant

2:35:44 and I just want to play these clips, i think they're very educational. You get people online who... do you know what egg cracking is? No! Right okay let's have a little lesson so there's a subreddit everyone should check out called Egg underscore irl which is basically a meme page for trans people to prove that they are really trans, so somebody who doesn't know they're trans is an egg. For instance... I don't know it's crazy this is how they recruit people and its like for instance You've got a pink shirt on. That's egg behaviour! Well it's Wednesday, we wear pink I know...I'm gonna crack your egg though that's what they'll say and by cracking your egg it's convincing you that you're actually trans It's like the trampoline game where someone sits in the middle they huddle up and then people around them bounce and as soon as your arms and legs come apart you've been cracked so yes it's a crowd of people trying to break you Yeah it is and uh you get people online bragging about how many people how many eggs they've cracked

2:36:42 how many people have they sent HRT to and it's always adults sending their children, which in itself is a grooming behaviour because grooming to touch on the earlier point is the process of gaining trust for sexual gratification of the adult. And obviously adults who send hormones to children aren't doing it out of altruistic means, especially when they brag about it. It's very psychotic, it's very sadomistic, it's very perverted too and big named streamers have done this. Yes we have had one or two run-ins with persons who we will not name because we don't want to give them the clout but

2:37:23 Yeah, unfortunately this is being aid and abetted by many platforms again because they want to be seen on the right side whereas any other context if this is heterosexual unless of course you're a Muslim man in Rotherham then it would be rightly condemned and prosecuted but there's just the complete unwillingness to safeguard children here. And also vulnerable adults who... Why am I listening to a podcast? I get it! It's called egg cracking Alright, well I'll just skip those clips. But... but I do want to read this and i think some things are going to change which is on the headline is court permanently bans or blocks Biden administration's transgender mandate What? Mandate! You didn't know about this? No

2:38:19 The federal court of appeals permanently blocked the Biden administration's bid to force doctors and insurers to perform or pay for gender transition procedures. Oh yeah! Even if they... I'm sorry, keep going. Even if they object on grounds of conscience and medical judgment With the court basing its decision on constitutional protections of religious freedom, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 8th Court issued a unanimous ruling on December 9 last year blocking the controversial US Department of Health and Human Services transgender mandate issued in 2016

2:39:05 The mandate interpreted the Affordable Care Act in a way that required doctors to perform gender transition procedures on any patient, including children even if the doctor was convinced the procedure could harm the patient. And how do you feel about this John? And it actually stems from HHS. Of course it does! And this is where all the money, you say well we can make money from doing this unless since we have to do it and you know we blame all these hospitals for coming around and saying well you know are going to do this or that? To your kid but it turns out they had to do it so they decided to make the best of it but thats stopped now So now I think things are gonna start to turn around

2:39:56 I don't think anything's turning around. I think the programming is so incredibly strong and children have been... when you have people of authority teachers, mainly who are just teaching this freely in I think every state in the Union. Yeah they try to stop some of it but there's a whole generation of teachers who are doing this and there is also a lot of teacher getting out of teaching because they can't handle how stupid all that is You know, it's not just the gender stuff. It's a teddy bears you know for high school students of no emotional Emotional support animals it's and really it's the drugs It's the drugs we pump into children as I said that I'm only afraid if I'm not afraid of China or Russia I'm afraid of big pharma That's what I'm afraid of they're coming for every single one of us and they come in for you first The older the better

CHAPTER 39 / 48 Discussion

Ron DeSantis, Florida Education Reform, 2024 Politics

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has introduced a higher education reform plan aimed at banning "political activism" and "indoctrination" at state universities. The hosts discuss DeSantis's political future and the potential for a primary clash with Donald Trump in 2024.

ron desantis· florida· education· higher education· wall street· 2024 election

2:40:59 Get rid of the old people. So this brings us to DeSantis, you noticed I pronounced it correctly? Yes you did And his education plan which i thought was kind of interesting because this guy is leading the pack in terms of Republicans who are trying to actually do something by actually doing something and then Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is introducing what he calls higher education reform for the state He says its to ban indoctrination at colleges and universities So we're proud of what Governor Ron DeSantis on Tuesday said higher education in Florida is focusing too much on political activism and not enough fun teaching real skills According to him. This is hurting students in the long run so he wants to turn the situation around them Yeah, yeah He's people like him a lot and then they're getting duped well not duped but big Big Wall Street money is behind Ron de Santis

2:41:59 And the idea is to either fracture the party, people will be voting for Trump and DeSantis for 2024. That's what it seems like he's going to run and you're going to get exactly what you bargained for like yeah oh yeah the Republicans are in charge now! Now Wall Street is gonna screw you even more It just seems a foregone conclusion Well, I don't see it as a Wall Street screwing people thing. I think it's sub-segments. Bankers maybe, pharma for sure... Yeah big money how about just billionaires and big money? Does that work? Yeah thats better

CHAPTER 40 / 48 Discussion

Bill Gates, Jeffrey Epstein Relationship, Foundation Denials

Bill Gates faced renewed questioning in a recent interview regarding his past relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Gates maintained that their meetings were solely for philanthropic purposes, despite reports that his ex-wife Melinda had warned him about Epstein's character.

bill gates· jeffrey epstein· melinda gates· bbc· philanthropy

2:42:41 Short one, Bill Gates cannot get away from his history with Jeffrey Epstein. This seemed to show up on something like Meta News? I'm not sure exactly what this news outfit was but he just can't get away from this sordid history and he got grilled again! And i can't believe why he subjects himself to this Other than that he looks pretty guilty when he answers and fumbles now one of the issues that's dogged you is Is that if your relationship with Jeffrey Epstein? Do you regret the relationship that you maintained with him against Melinda's advice and wishes oh I've said that um. I mean this is you're going way back in time, but yeah You already have a say for these you know over 100 time me. Yeah, I shouldn't have had dinners with him

2:43:29 Epstein had a way of sexually compromising people. Is that what Melinda was warning you about? Wow, I can't believe this question no now No, it's no I had dinner with him and that's all know it was one dinner now And that you regret the relationship, the acquaintance? That I had dinner with him. And and the relationship between The Foundation and Epstein which... There never was any relationship of any kind. Oh man! People like to get him. I was thinking about this, I saw this on BBC or something... Was it BBC? I didn't think it was BBC. Maybe I'm wrong. But anyway he was trying to get out of this and you know he should have said He should have made it so that it's part of the foundation That thats how he got suckered into having dinner with him because he is a big donor That would make more sense than just having casual dinners with some guy random guy

2:44:32 Yeah, the blue. Yeah, which he never quite was a dumb way to never explained it What was he having? Why did he meet this guy I think it was they gonna introduce two two of them to be honest about it How did he meet this guy in the first place and then how did you why is he having dinner with him after He met him yeah because he had the hot chicas we all know oh Uh, okay. I have a little bit of Africa stuff... Wait wait let's have some good news first Well you mean good news or real news? Which one is it? No good news Okay This is the Baldwin clip

Alec Baldwin, Rust Shooting Charges, Involuntary Manslaughter

Actor Alec Baldwin and armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed have been formally charged with involuntary manslaughter in the 2021 fatal shooting of Halyna Hutchins on the set of the movie *Rust*. Prosecutors allege a pattern of recklessness and a failure to follow standard firearm safety protocols.

alec baldwin· rust· hannah gutierrez-reed· manslaughter· new mexico· firearm safety

2:45:12 Oh man, good news. Actor and producer Alec Baldwin has formally been charged with involuntary manslaughter today that's for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Helena Hutchins on the set of the movie Rust in 2021 The sets armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed was also charged The Santa Fe County New Mexico District Attorney's Office filed the charges following months of speculation A probable cause statement says, quote, on the day of the shooting alone evidence shows that no less than a dozen acts or omissions of recklessness occurred in the short time prior to lunch and the time of the shooting. And this does not include the reckless handling of the firearm by Baldwin. Attorneys for both defendants previously said their respective clients are innocent

2:46:00 Yeah, so he didn't show up for firearm training and then when they did firearm training on the set because he didn't show up for it. He was on the phone with his family and chatting around that's I think It's possible Hollywood makes an example out of him sends him to jail for a year or two What do you think? Well, I don't think anyone would bitch about it except him. No! But it's time someone has to pay and he is an easy one to take care of because... He's a loud mouth. He's a problem child so.. And his wife is uh... A weirdo This is a weirdo. I've been tracking Africa just want to run through a couple short clips none of these are from US sources I don't think the first one is

CHAPTER 42 / 48 Discussion

German Diplomacy in Africa, Energy Diversification, Olaf Scholz

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz visited several African nations, including South Africa and Senegal, to secure new energy supplies and diversify away from Russian gas. The German strategy focuses on developing renewable energy and green hydrogen networks through "partnerships" intended to avoid neo-colonialism.

olaf scholz· germany· africa· renewables· green hydrogen· colonialism

2:46:48 It's kind of a global overview of why everyone is rushing down to Africa. We've had Janet Yellen down there, a lot of people, a lot of leaders are going to Africa you don't hear about it here in the United States but its happening." For years Africa was at best a secondary concern for Germany But after almost six months as German Chancellor Olaf Scholz was on his way to the continent stopping off in South Africa, Niger and Senegal looking to strengthen ties and do deals. Africa is the continent next to Europe and it is of essence that we work intensely to have very good relations with... This is a German Chancellor, a Chancellor call.

2:47:33 But there was and remains another big reason for all the diplomacy and handshakes. Germany knows Africa has a lot to offer when it comes to diversifying its energy supplies, particularly renewables.

2:48:09 And in its new Africa strategy, Berlin is quick to point out the need to help African countries make their own economies more climate-friendly. And that's not all… We don't want countries to be permanently dependent on us We don't want to create some kind of neo-colonialism, but rather a partnership relationship. We see how Africa is developing what potential for innovation there is how many young people there are and we want to build networks that are beneficial to both sides Trust us! We're from the government. We want to be your friend you on a partnership

CHAPTER 43 / 48 Discussion

DRC Conflict, Islamic State, Pope Francis Visit

Pope Francis visited the Democratic Republic of Congo, calling for an end to the exploitation of Africa's resources. Meanwhile, reports indicate an increase in attacks by Islamic State-affiliated groups targeting civilians and churches in the region.

democratic republic of congo· islamic state· pope francis· africa· resource extraction

2:48:47 We want a partnership with you. Let's see how that is going. also the Islamic State isn't it? Ah, see this is what you do. You gotta bring in some ISIS, Islamic state, bring them in so that we can come and save you Africans! Yes of course and the group there either in North Kivu or in the Ituri is targeting Christian civilians We saw that in the last 10 days of 2022, there were more than five attacks. One on them against the church, army barracks and civilian houses. 124 victims, 70 wounded and 54 killed in the last ten days of the last year. And if you look at this map here where we are putting on it what we assess as important attacks that showed

2:49:47 a change in the trend. So of course, the Casablanca attack that occurred on the 15th January but also the first attack against a church bombing and church with the use of kamikaze attackers was back in Beni in June 2021 as we see on the map and also another important thing that happened in 2022 was the prison break of Butembo and this shows us that they are following the playbook of the Islamic State Central. Yeah, when there's a playbook in play then we know that we're part of it and who else is in the Democratic Republic of Congo? The Pope! The Pope who pretty much as far as I'm concerned works for China. This country and this continent deserve to be respected and listened to

2:50:33 They deserve to find space and receive attention. Hands off the Democratic Republic of Congo! Hands off Africa, stop choking Africa! Africa is not a mine to be stripped or terrain to be plundered. May Africa be the protagonist of its own destiny." We even have our UN ambassador. Do you remember her? Which one? Yeah, the new one! The lady

She made a visit to Mozambique by planting a mangrove tree and collecting garbage at a local beach with volunteers On arrival she stressed the importance of America's work for the Southern African country especially on the environment and climate change I had the opportunity to plant five mangrove trees. I will be checking regularly to see that the tree survived, I would have planted more if i had more time and I have my bag of garbage here that I helped pick up on on the beach. It's called a diplomatic attache

2:52:02 bag of garbage. Bag of garbage. The ambassador is the second cabinet member of the US government heading to Africa as part of President Joe Biden's big push to engage with a continent It follows one by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to Senegal, Zambia and South Africa.

Nigeria Currency Crisis, Italy-Libya Gas Deal

2:52:39 Ahead of the elections, Nigeria's economy is facing two major crises. The first a cash shortage sparked by the replacement of paper notes with newly redesigned ones as the nation hopes to curb money laundering In spite of January 31st deadline banks don't have enough new currency to swap for the old notes which residents are handing in. A crisis which has left people cashless and has forced businesses to close The deadline for handing in old notes has been pushed back to February 10th. Petrol shortages are also plaguing the country Nigeria is Africa's biggest crude producer yet relies on oil imports to meet local demand due to refineries operating below their capacity Now there you go, so they had new money coming in and oh we didn't have enough money printed in time sorry

2:53:31 The country that I think is very strange stories the I do know one thing that we don't didn't have covered there which is the Germans went to South America energy from from Africa. Yeah, well that was kind of the first the first yeah it was a person but the methodology wasn't mentioned which was this team Setting up solar arrays when I watch this thing Yeah, you hear you get some climate some green energy and we take all of your resources Do it want to set up solar arrays in a bunch of wind farms in different countries? And then turn it into green hydrogen and then ship the hydrogen to Germany. That's the process Meanwhile Italy, I don't know why they just run wires Um

2:54:21 Italy made it this is probably the most sensible deal with Libya. This was this is also not available except on Africa news Italian energy giant and he signed an eight billion dollar gas deal with Libya state-run National Oil Corporation His prime minister Gigi Melani held talks with a Libyan interim Prime Minister Abdelhamid Beiber in Tripoli to discuss energy in migration so Meloni went to Tripoli to Libya and made a deal. And they're going to buy natural gas from them! That's completely outside of the EU idea, I think. Yeah that's why you didn't hear about it. It was great so smart. Hell is breaking loose everywhere. I got a Haiti clip new update in Haiti but it needs a warning

This comes 18 months after Moise was fatally shot at his home near the capital, Port-au-Prince July 7th 2021. Dozens of suspects have been arrested but the case has been at a standstill as Haiti faces a political and humanitarian crisis. Haitian authorities say other suspects still remain at large

2:56:57 No one really wants to deal with Haiti right now. Well, we apparently do! Yeah but I mean dragging these guys over here to be hung...I don't know what they're just it's always beyond me the same thing with a...I've said this since for years The Julian Assange thing is guys not an American citizen He's got nothing to do with us and we're trying to hang him for being a traitor How does that even work?

Local authorities seized a record 110 tons of cocaine last year, but officials admit this represents only a small fraction of the total volume.

2:57:46 I'm pretty sure that Rotterdam, the port of Rotterdam and the Netherlands itself is the crime capital of the European Union. But we have a contender! Belgium coming in close from Antwerp. The port of Antwerp in Belgium has become the number one gateway for Latin American cocaine destined for Europe. The trade's controlled by powerful international gangs and comes with high levels of violence and corruption. A problem so acute that Antwerps mayor is calling for the army to be deployed Terry Schultz recent shooting death of an 11 year old girl in her family home in Antwerp Believed to be an accidental killing and a dispute between gangs has drug culture researcher tune Votin fearing attacks will now spiral Belgian authorities seized 110 tons of cocaine last year record, but they estimate that's only about 10% of what's in

2:58:38 not enough to disrupt criminals business. They're boosting their efforts, planning to deploy more than a hundred extra people at the port along with new scanning equipment but the added scrutiny may make smugglers even more determined to recruit insiders to help get the cocaine onto land they are already targeting port employees. They approach you very directly and show pictures of your family, of your kids, of friends This is a not a very subtle way of working. It's it's a real threat Oh, man Belgium is gonna pull ahead of Holland this is crazy never thought that would happen I think you're being optimistic Not really They just go to the port employees hey got a picture of your wife and kids okay How much cocaine do you want me to approve seems easy?
