Dead Name

00:00 Well, looks like a woman. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Sunday, February 19th, 2023. This is your award-winning Kimberlian media assassination episode 1531. This is no agenda. My blowhole to broadcast live from the heart of the Texas U country here in FEMA region number six in the morning, everybody. I'm Adam Curry. And from northern Silicon Valley where we're hoping you're going to shoot down some more hobbyist balloons. Bastards. I'm John C. Dvorak. It wasn't just hobbyists, it was a ham radio hobbyist balloon. Well that was one of them. Yeah, just one. You know how I have always joked about plastic surgeons who say, just a few days of bruising ma'am.

00:50 You know that? Yeah. Turns out oral surgeons are very similar. They're all surgeons. Just a sore for a day or two. John, my mouth is so taut from the swelling it's like I'm talking through a blowhole. Yeah, use the blowhole joker. Well, you didn't say anything so I wanted to make sure you heard it. I uh, you sound, you sound 10 by 10. Yeah, 5 by 5, I know, I know, but it hurts. 6 by 6. It hurts. It hurts when I laugh, so let's make it a, let's make it a just kind of a regular old show, do you mind? Just not too funny.

01:32 The regular old shows are pretty humorous. I do have my book here. Oh, it's called jokes puns and riddles. No, I David Alan Clark. Hold on. Let's not do that. No, this is I'm gonna tell you something. It's interesting. I know this book is from 1968 so this is hippie humor And I'm gonna tell you I could read anything from this book and I guarantee you won't laugh. Oh that that would make sense Hippie humor is generally just not funny Question okay, when is spanking like a hat? I don't know when is spanking like a hat John when it is felt. Oh Man, is this did Marty write this book? I hurt myself Hey, I didn't do it

02:24 All right, all right. Maybe your Weisenheimer one-liner should be stuck with a halt. That's what it is. The Munich Security Conference is on. I have a clip. I have a clip too, but since I called it, I'll do the overview and then we'll see what you have. I got a couple of things here. This is the annual conference. Everyone gets together in Deutschland. Last year, of course, Zelensky was there in his civilian suit. to recommend that everyone get ready for the war and now we're one year further and here's a couple of, here's an overview of what the leaders had to say including Herr Zelensky himself. Zelensky set the tone comparing Ukraine's fight against Russia to David and Goliath. He will definitely fall already this year. We can make it all of us together just as David did.

03:18 We can make sure that there is no alternative to our victory. Ukraine's president urged Western leaders to act quickly. We need to hurry up. We need the speed of our agreements, speed of our delivery to strengthen our sling, speed of decisions to limit Russian potential. While Zelensky pushed for speed, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz argued for caution. We will continue to maintain the balance between providing the best possible support to Ukraine and avoiding an unwanted escalation.

03:57 But Schultz also challenged Western countries to deliver on promised weapons. This means that everyone who can supply these battle tanks should actually do so now. President Emmanuel Macron's backing for Ukraine remains firm. We must absolutely intensify our support for the resistance of the Ukrainian people and army for leading the counter offensive, which alone will enable credible negotiations under the conditions chosen by Ukraine, its authorities, its people. Alright, so that's the overview, sounds pretty boring, although Zelensky is almost... My overview is a little better than that. Okay, I'm glad. I was just going to finish by saying... This is an actual overview. It doesn't really bring in any details like what you just said. That's more detail. This is Munich Security Conference clip.

04:53 The Munich Security Conference kicks off today in Bavaria, Germany. The meeting is an annual gathering of experts, senior politicians and heads of state for talks on global security policy. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and French President Emmanuel Macron have arrived at the venue to meet with other European leaders. Their speeches will follow opening remarks by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Also among the guests are UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, European Commission head Ursula von der Leyen and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. Representing the US is Vice President Kamala Harris. I see why you were so jacked about playing your clip because you didn't work. What is she doing there? Well she was there last year if you recall. She is the represent... she's there to say with the passage of time

03:57 But Schultz also challenged Western countries to deliver on promised weapons. This means that everyone who can supply these battle tanks should actually do so now. President Emmanuel Macron's backing for Ukraine remains firm. We must absolutely intensify our support for the resistance of the Ukrainian people and army for leading the counter offensive, which alone will enable credible negotiations under the conditions chosen by Ukraine, its authorities, its people. Alright, so that's the overview, sounds pretty boring, although Zelensky is almost... My overview is a little better than that. Okay, I'm glad. I was just going to finish by saying...

She is the represent... she's there to say with the passage of time

05:46 And Zelensky is almost quoting song lyrics. We can make it. We can make it. Looks like we made it. I'm telling you this is almost over, but not until we shake down the people of the United States, the UK, the EU, and back home we had the representatives telling us how they're going to take it from us. We're going to deliver much needed humanitarian assistance as well as food, water, medicine, shelter, and other aid to Ukrainians displaced by Russia's war. and provide aid for those seeking refuge in other countries from Ukraine. It's also going to help schools and hospitals open.

06:24 It's going to allow pensions and social support to be paid to the Ukrainian people so they have something, something in their pocket. It's also going to provide critical resources to address food shortages around the globe. Yeah, you know, they need their pensions. We don't need our pensions. We're giving them cash? Yes, screw you America with your pensions. We're giving them cash, we're giving them food. What, you hungry? You hungry? You should go to Ukraine. Yeah, so that... Did they ever look at the homeless situation around here? I know they must have homeless in DC. Oh, a lot of homeless in DC. It's been bad for a long time. Once you cross the border of Foggy Bottom.

07:02 So here's Mitch McConnell, leader of the Republicans. We're listening to the Ukrainians saying they don't have enough ammo. By the way, on Fox News with Dana Perino. We're listening to the Ukrainians saying they don't have enough ammo. And even our Defense Department is saying we might have to figure out a way to get more funding so that we have enough ammo for ourselves and to give to allies like Grant. Funding? This is such a scam. We are being stolen from right before our very eyes. Oh, we don't have enough bullets. Not enough ammo. We need more funding wait, but we have we haven't figured out the the debt limit yet. It's gonna be so fun What is Biden's responsibility in trying to make sure that people in America whose support for Ukraine is softening? Will want to continue to try to help them

07:49 Well, I'm going to try to help explain to the American people that defeating the Russians in Ukraine is the single most important event going on in the world right now. I don't care what you think, it's the single most important thing in the entire world! Even if you're hungry, even if you have no jingle-jangle in your pocket, it's all about Ukraine. That's the most important thing. It will save us an enormous amount of money down the road if the Ukrainians can succeed. They're not asking for any of our personnel. Wait a minute, it's an investment people. It'll save us money down the road if the Ukrainians can succeed. It's really, you should see it as an investment in your children's future. Money in the bank. Investment in your children's future.

08:32 It will save us an enormous amount of money down the road if the Ukrainians can succeed They're not asking for any of our personnel. They're asking us for financial help The Europeans are stepping up by the way financial help no Dana Perino just opened by saying man We need money for the military-industrial complex is we were out of ammo They're out of ammo and then he says well, we need money for them. No, no, no, this is we're being robbed and We're being robbed by the military-industrial complex and they're just gonna keep going until someone stops it. They're not asking for any of our personnel, they're asking us for financial help. You keep saying yeah they are. What are they asking for? They're asking for our personnel. They'd love to have our personnel over there. They have our personnel. Some of this money is going to the mercenaries. That's our personnel. Well not only just mercenaries, according to that clip that I played last show, US Army.

09:28 Yeah, that guy wasn't a mercenary he was talking about. No, he was an advisor Oh yes, an advisor with a gun. An advisor. Arts cannot be neutral. Here's how it goes. Let me show you, let me advise you how to do this. You point over there. Now I'm going to pull the trigger. This is just advice, okay? Culture makes choices in times like these. Oops, sorry. Down the road, if the Ukrainians can succeed. They're not asking for any of our personnel. They're asking us for financial help. The Europeans are stepping up. They've done awful lot that seems not to be recognized. For example, handling enormous numbers of refugees. Man, I keep doing it. We're not recognizing how good the Europeans are. The Europeans are really, they're actually better than us.

10:16 Because we're just not recognizing how much they've done? An awful lot that seems not to be recognized. For example, handling enormous numbers of refugees. In terms of the cost of it, Dana, it's about 0.02% of our gross domestic product. Oh, well, let's not give that to Americans. It's just a little bit. So, what is it? $130 billion is just 0.02% of our GDP. Why don't we give another 0.02% of the GDP to Americans?

10:54 This is I cannot believe that anyone sitting at home going. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah We really got to help out Ukraine. I just it does it seems like this must must be falling on deaf ears We are also monitoring very carefully the money that's being spent. There should be a bipartisan support for that. Oh bullcrap! What? I said bullcrap, they can't even audit the Pentagon let alone figure out where that money's going to descend it. If you remember when this war first started and they started shipping money over there, they lost track of it immediately. It was 400 million, 400 million, I don't know. Even someone pointed out to me the clip you played on the last show about running out of ammunition. They actually said the ammunition is lost. They didn't say it's like missing.

11:44 It's missing. And this, it is so obvious. We are also monitoring very carefully the money that's being spent. There should be a bipartisan support for this. My biggest criticism of the president is he seems not to have done enough soon enough. More. Moved more rapidly. We might have been able to help the Ukrainians have even more success than they've already had But it seems like these weapon systems tend to get there a little too late On every occasion Dana Perino, representative, news model for the military-industrial complex. Exactly. We get there a little too late on every occasion. I'm sorry public opinion is sliding, but I want to reassure the American people that this is enormously important. We need to stay together on a bipartisan basis in our country and defend these people who are bravely fighting

12:43 for freedom and for democracy in Ukraine. So support is sliding, he's aware of it, they're aware, but he just brought that in without any prompting. The same is happening in Europe. And Queen Ursula gave an interview, a very stressful interview. It was kind of a stand-up thing at the Munich Security Conference. I think someone stopped her on the balustrade, that's international speak for a balcony. And then she got a whole bunch of mics jammed in her face and she couldn't get away from it. And if you look close at her,

13:28 She is, her lizard reptile mouth is starting to show. She has all the little creases, lines all around her mouth now, which she could easily solve with some injectables. Just a few days of bruising. But now it just looks, it really makes her look like a reptile. So a couple of questions here and the first one is of course the people of the EU who have millions of refugees who have come into the EU countries Poland would be number one I would say, but they're in the Netherlands, they're in France, they're everywhere. And support is sliding. People after a year of having this go on, people are starting to get weary and luckily she has a solution.

14:13 Europe has taken in millions of Ukrainian refugees and towns have been very supportive. They want to help these people but they are saying they are straining under the on-flooding of refugees. What can you do to help them because they are saying they are reaching limit? First of all, yes, I want to acknowledge and thank from the bottom of my heart all these people, Europeans who have opened their hearts and their homes to the Ukrainian refugees. This is amazing. And I understand that this is straining over time. This is why we introduced the temporary protection directive, which means basically directly

14:51 access for the Ukrainians to the labor market, to the schooling system, to the health system and to social security. Oh, okay, so it's gonna get so much better. Europe? Now the EU has decided apparently through this special mechanism that the refugees can get access to your children's schools To your your social services and and your social money Okay, so don't worry about it. It's gonna be there for a while, but we're gonna take care of it We're paying for them with your money. It was the temporary protection directive, which means basically directly access for the Ukrainians to the labor market, to the schooling system, to the health system and to social security. Also to help... Hey wait a minute, social security? Wait a minute, Biden said we need to give them money for social security. Is this our money? Hold on, let me just go back and listen to the end of Biden there. Where is he? I mean we heard that right? Let me just check here. Let's see, that was the last bit of Biden.

15:55 people so they have something something in their pocket it's also going to provide critical resources to address food shortages around pensions and social support to be paid to the Ukrainian people so they have something pensions okay no not the same thing well I thought we were paying for it direct access for the Ukrainians to the labor market to the schooling system to the health system and to social security also to help take the burden off the shoulder of the ordinary people who did a great job So when do you see his coming? Zelensky said at this conference that he would think that... Hold on a second, stop it. She said for the ordinary people who did a great job, is that what she said? Yes, they did a great job. Of fleeing? Great job! Okay.

16:47 I hear you, this is gobbledygook. When do you see peace coming? Here comes the peace question. Now we've been paying attention to the peace. When is peace coming? At this conference he will think that the next Munich conference that will be a post-war conference. Do you also believe that this war will be over within a year? I will not make any predictions because this is not to put in words for me at the moment being. Important is, as Ukraine is fighting for our basic values, for the respect for the international law, for the UN Charter and for the fact that today you cannot send tanks across a border and unleash such an aggression.

17:29 So Ukraine is really fighting for... What do you think that means? We can't send tanks across the border? Am I quite under... What do you think she's talking about here? Play it again. Basic values for the respect... Back a little bit. for me at the moment being. Important is as Ukraine is fighting for our basic values, for the respect for the international law, for the UN Charter. Okay, there it goes. This is important. Respect for international law, respect for the UN Charter. Here we go. At the moment being. Important is as Ukraine is fighting for our basic values, for the respect for the international law,

18:09 for the UN Charter and for the fact that today you cannot send tanks across a border and unleash such an aggression. So I guess that's what she's referring to Putin sending tanks across the border. Exactly. Ukraine is really fighting for existential values that we have and therefore full support from our side Putin's imperialistic plan must fail. A little bit more on the timeline are you going to be proposing this formally, what's the next steps in this proposal? And one of the problems has been that even though there has been money, for example through NATO, countries have not signed contracts and that has slowed the whole process down. How can you ensure that once you have the money on the table, the contracts are signed and production can start? Okay, now what she just throws out there, this lady's in the know somehow, she works for Deutsche Welle, production can start. I think this is about more weapons.

19:05 But she's saying there's no contracts. She said, you know, what's the timeline for kicking Putin's ass? Because the contracts have not been signed It is important because of the lack of contracts to give a certain amount of certainty To the defense industry and these are the advanced perch. They want long-term contracts The defense industry doesn't just want like a you know, just a little thing. No, no We want long-term certainty and contracts of contracts to give a certain certain amount of certainty to the defense industry. And these are the advance purchase agreements that we have good experiences with. And for that it needs a European approach because it cannot rest on the shoulders of one country, for example. So this is the approach. The second is we have the institutions in place. So we should not create something new.

20:02 But we should use the European Peace Facility which has a coordination mechanism with Ukraine. I love it. The European Peace Facility which funds the military-industrial complex. It's great. We have the institutions in place so we should not create something new. But we should use the European Peace Facility which has a coordination mechanism with Ukraine already in place. We can use the so-called OCA which is a procurement institutions that is knows all the mechanism so for me be practical be fast and these are the ingredients that we're gonna put together. All right be practical be fast let's get the money to the military industrial complex as quickly as possible. Now back to the peace process it looks like there are there the the pieces are coming together

20:51 And what I see happening is not an actual victory, you know, it's all up to Ukraine, not a victory on the field, but there will be an agreement, there will be a negotiations and and that will end the war and we're getting pretty close the mechanism seems to be the IPCC the International Criminal the ICCC International Criminal Court Special Tribunal but one question you mentioned Vice President Harris's speech is this a change in tone from the White House? This is significant in that the US now does formally consider Russia to have committed crimes against humanity. But how to actually hold Russia accountable is a huge question that countries are grappling with right now. Ukraine is calling for a special international tribunal to try Vladimir Putin, but that seems a long way off for now. Maybe not. Maybe not. We go over to CNN. Anampur and company, Christiane Anampur, globalist extraordinaire,

21:50 They have on Bill Browder, who himself is a very interesting figure, who got basically kicked out of Russia and if there's money to be had I'm sure he would have an interest in hanging around to get some of it. He can probably prove that he deserves some of it. So he is telling the Annenpurer CNN and company exactly what the mechanism is, how it's going to work and why. Explain to me the mechanics of confiscating their central bank reserves. This is Russia's 600 million dollars for starters. Billion. Billion, I'm sorry. Earths are protected by something called sovereign immunity. Sovereign immunity means that anything that belongs to a country, a state, can't be taken away. You can't just move into the embassy because you would like that property because it belongs to that country. Normally, that would be a reasonable thing and that's how international law has worked for the last many, many years.

22:50 Now, Putin has redefined international crime. He has redrawn the borders of Europe, he's invaded a foreign country, he's killed, he's been a mass murderer, killed unimaginable numbers of people. And so we're sitting there in this situation where he's redefined international crime, and we're sitting there saying, and your money is still protected. We need to redefine international law to elevate it to the level of the way he's become an international criminal. And what does that mean specifically? That means that laws have to be passed in a number of major developed countries,

23:32 which says that sovereign immunity always applies in every single circumstance except in the circumstance when a country has invaded a neighboring country and committed an act of aggression, which is how this war is being defined under legal terms. So that's the one narrow circumstance where sovereign immunity no longer applies. If we did that, if the United States and the European Union and Great Britain and Canada and Japan rewrote their laws to say that sovereign immunity applies in all circumstances other than those, then we could then confiscate their money. We wouldn't be doing it illegally, we'd be doing it based on a law that's been rewritten to adapt itself to the current situation. Easy. And of course, she brings up the point that one of the

24:20 staples of Western civilization is the avoidance of ex post facto laws, right? No, no, I don't think that was in there for some reason it just didn't come up. No, this is what's so beautiful. What you just said is, okay we're going to convict somebody based upon a law we wrote after the atrocity. Well, I guess they could just wait, change the law and then say, oh crimes against humanity because as you know Invading another country is a crime against humanity. It's not like any of our presidents would fall under that, but Putin would. And it looks like we just might have a venue for the negotiation as we have the trial going on in The Hague in the Netherlands under the joint investigation team, the same team that convicted Putin of being behind the Malaysian downing from a rocket shot off from in Ukraine, but of course that was Putin.

25:15 It looks like there may be a venue for peace negotiations, which I think would leave Putin with whatever he has with Crimea, the Donbass, he keeps all that, he just stays on that border. We cover that up with guys with black and white tunics on in the court and we'll have a big show trial. They'll probably have his head on a stick. in the docket so it looks like we actually have him there. And this is where it looks like the peace negotiation may take place. Could the war in Ukraine end sooner than expected? I know we have been asking this question for quite some time now, but some unexpected developments have forced us to ask this question again. Developments like these. Alexander Lukashenko inviting the American President Joe Biden to Minsk. What for?

26:06 end the Ukraine war. For the unversed Lukashenko is the president of Belarus and one of Vladimir Putin's closest allies. In fact, they are best friends of sorts. So when a man like this extends an olive branch to the West, when he makes offers like these to the US president, one has to take them rather seriously. Putin won't even go. He'll send somebody else. They're going to end this. After we've signed the long-term contracts, we need two years worth of ammo and training, etc., etc., etc. And I think that signal has now gone out to the military-industrial complex. One more time, boys. We do a two-year long-term contract and then we're just going to cut it down and stop it slowly, move it over to China, which is where the new focus belongs.

26:54 And the only problem is we have a couple of a-hole journalists. That's the problem we still got to fix. Because our buddy Matt Lee, AP Diplo writer, is back. He's back giving people a hard time at the State Department. In this case, Matt Lee grills Rear Admiral Kirby on who actually is the aggressor here. Did Russia get closer to NATO or did NATO get closer to Russia? NATO has moved closer to Russia rather than Russia moving closer to NATO. Is that not an accurate way to look at this? I think that's the way President Putin probably looks at it. It's certainly not the way that we look at it. You don't think that NATO has expanded eastward toward Russia? NATO has expanded and the expansion has been a good thing for... So the reason that the Russian army is at NATO's doorstep is not the fault of the Russian army, not the...

27:56 It's not the Russian army that's done it. It's NATO has moved closer to move. I'm pretty sure it wasn't NATO who was ordering, you know, upwards of 15 battalion tactical groups to within 10 kilometers of the border with Ukraine. And I'm pretty sure it wasn't NATO who put little green men inside Ukraine to destabilize eastern states. I'm pretty sure that Ukraine is not a member of NATO. No, that was Victoria Nuland who put little green men inside the Maidan. So, unless that's changed... It's not changed. But I'm pretty sure the movement by Russia... If NATO has moved east, the reason that the Russian army is closer or on NATO's doorstep is because NATO moved. NATO is not an anti-Russia alliance. NATO is a security alliance. For 50 years it was an anti-Soviet alliance.

28:41 So do you not understand it, Togo, do you not understand how or can you not even see how the Russians perceive it as a threat? And the fact that it keeps getting closer to their border while their troops, I mean, the places where their troops are, you say their troops are and may have been in Ukraine and Georgia, are not NATO members. I'm not going to pretend to know what goes in President Putin's mind or Russian military commanders. I mean, I barely got a history degree at the University of South Florida. What I can tell you is that... Holy, stop that. Stop the tape. How about that? How about that? Why would somebody... This is like the guy says, look, I'm a D student. Yeah. So I don't understand this sort of thing. Well, then what are you even doing in this position? We don't want D's. Is this... You're an equity hire?

29:25 It seems like it at this point. He's really struggling. He's really struggling with this. Well, he's now he's claiming to be a dummy from South Florida. This is Kirby the admiral? Rear admiral, retired. By the way, I got a note from someone saying when we did the discussion about Kirby being a woman. When you brought this up, yes. I think it was a woman I wrote in. Until you started talking about it, I always thought he was or she was a woman. No! Yes. Wow! I believe you. So the voice... this happened to me by the way with the Laura Ingram when she was on the radio. Oh you thought Frau Ingram was Herr Ingram?

30:12 When she's on the radio, I don't know how they mic'd her or what they did or how they EQ'd her. I don't know what it was, but if I just accidentally am driving around and actually turn her show on, I thought it was some dude. I thought it was some dude. Years it was an anti-soviet alliance. So do you not understand it? Do you not understand how or can you not even see how the Russians would perceive it as a threat? Now that's the question. His answer is even more baffling when you think about what the simple question is. And the fact that it keeps getting closer to their border while their troops

30:48 I mean, the places where their troops are, you say their troops are, and may have been in Ukraine and Georgia, are not NATO members. I'm not going to pretend to know what goes in President Putin's mind or Russian military commanders. I mean, I barely got a history degree at the University of South Florida. Oh man, that is so stupid. What I can tell you is that NATO is a defensive alliance. It remains a defensive alliance. Fair enough, but it has moved east. Correct? I mean that's just a fact. It has expanded, absolutely. Right, exactly. There's no reason for anybody to think the expansion is a hostile or threatening move. And we've been saying that throughout the last 15 years, Matt. You're moving closer to Russia. You're blaming the Russians for being close to NATO. No, no, no. That's exactly what Hagel's saying. We're blaming the Russians for violating the territorial integrity of Ukraine and destabilizing the security situation inside Europe. Which is not a NATO member. Which is not a NATO member.

31:38 I see other countries feel threatened. Yeah, goodbye way to go Matt. She's the only guy left I think I barely got a history history degree at the University of Florida South Florida University of Florida, but South Florida, whatever the hell that is one more clip here luckily We need to keep the the German people happy Now we got to keep them involved because well you know they actually have maybe still have some capacity to make some weapons. I would say they except for Airbus they pretty much are that what's left of the defense industry in the EU. So let's bring Zelensky and Sean Penn into a film festival shall we? Arts cannot be neutral. Culture makes choices in times like these. The words of Zelensky at the opening gala of this year's Berlinale Film Festival.

32:37 Today Russia wants to build the same wall in Ukraine, a wall between us, between us and Europe, to separate Ukraine from its own choice and its own future. Now in its 73rd year, the Berlinale's roots are deeply political in nature, its foundations laid in the first phase of the Cold War. In addition to Ukraine, pro-democracy protests in Iran will also feature at the festival. Guests from the world of show business and politics shared the red carpet with Iranian demonstrators. This year, 19 films will be competing for the Golden and Silver Bear Awards.

33:22 Outside the main competition, films due to be screened cover topics from race and history in the US to gender transition and sexual identity. Oh man, I can't believe we missed that film festival. Sounds like some great, great submissions this year. Gender identity. LGBTQ. There's nothing more entertaining than that. One other thing happened at the... Show business, man. Somehow they still have this feeble idea that we can reach the people and convince them through celebrities and show business. I think that left somewhere mid-pandemic, worldwide. People are just not interested anymore.

34:05 But what else happened at the Munich Security Conference is the cancelled meeting between Abe Lincoln and Liu Yi, I think it is, the Secretary of State for China. kind of took place but there were some jabs back and forth. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi during the global security conference in Munich. This is the first face-to-face meeting between the two leaders since the US military shot down a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon earlier this month. Taking to Twitter, Blinken said that he warned Wang Yi against violations of its airspace after a Chinese spy balloon flew over North America. Blinken further asserted on how it was unacceptable and irresponsible for China to send a spy balloon into the American airspace.

34:55 Earlier on Saturday, Wang Yi took a swipe at Washington, accusing it of violating international norms with what Beijing calls unbelievable and almost hysterical behavior. Beijing has also denied using spy balloons and says that the balloon was for weather research. WION to get this information. I don't think we'd hear anywhere in the US media that the Chinese foreign secretary said, man this is like you're hysterical. This is hysterical behavior. Stop it you woman. That's basically what he said and added to that it was a weather balloon which we also have. All I heard was oh the Chinese said sorry. No it was it would they say they say clearly it's a weather balloon. So what is it?

35:45 Well, since they're digging pieces of it up or trying to from the bottom of the 40 feet down, it's not that far. We'll find out. I think that they've been, and this has been going on for a while now, so I think the information is being suppressed. Yeah, we'll find out. Uh-huh. That's what I said, the information is being suppressed. I got a note from the same producer who told me about the F-22. did what it did. And by the way, the F-22 is the most sophisticated aircraft. I mean, this whole F-22 was almost, the way I picked it up, is a sales job. Hey, look what our plane can do. We can shoot balloons. The PRC balloon engagement was at the ragged edge of the F-22's operational envelope. That means the altitude.

36:37 The higher altitude is harder for the airframe to maneuver. Therefore, that engagement required Mach 1.3. The other engagements in order to fly because there's almost no air up there, you need speed and otherwise you're going to fall out of the sky. So, that's why the Mach 1.3. The other engagements were at much slower speeds since they were at lower altitudes but still too dangerous to use guns for the aforementioned reason because you could actually wind up flying through the debris at that speed. A pilot, our source says, told me that the F-22 not being able to use guns above 50,000 feet, as they look for some other references, but pilots were too busy creaming themselves over a robbed demonstration of air power. See this is what it was, it was a sales job.

37:26 But it appears that you just can't use the guns at 50,000 feet because you're going too fast and you have to fly fast to stay afloat or airborne. Well, these random assertions are one thing. It's not a random assertion. It's from someone who... Okay, yes, you contacted who? The Defense Department. Oh, where you get the truth. Did you talk to Kirby? I didn't say I was going to get the truth. I also contacted Lockheed and the woman seems to be on vacation over the holiday. But the Defense Department said that information is classified. No, of course it's F-22. It's classified.

38:09 That plane is 25 years old. How long is it gonna... how long is everything gonna remain classified? Wait a minute, the F-22. I thought the F-22 was like the brand new hot ship machine. Yeah. That's 25 years old. Yeah, it is. Doesn't mean it's new. Are you sure? This is the fifth gen. Well, the fifth gen, yeah, they keep upgrading it. I'm not saying it's the same version they made 25 years ago. Okay. Alright, so my answer versus yours. I have an answer you get, it's classified. Well, that makes sense. I don't know why, it just doesn't make sense. In fact, the second guy got a hold of me and he said he wanted to try to get me some answers but he couldn't do it.

39:01 Right on cue we have China also being dicks to our neighbors to the north. This was big story, big story in Canada. People sending me links about it the whole time. It was exactly the result Beijing wanted. You are sending us back to work. At least according to a Globe and Mail report. It cited top secret thesis documents detailing Beijing's sophisticated strategy to influence the 2021 election. According to the report, China targeted specific conservative candidates in hopes of a liberal minority government. Justin Trudeau knew about this interference? The opposition accuses the Prime Minister of covering it up. He is perfectly happy to let a foreign authoritarian government interfere in our elections as long as they're helping him.

39:56 Trudeau said he's never hidden China's attempts to interfere. We have, like I said, known for a long time that China and others engage in foreign interference in Canada, including during our elections. People are upset about this, rightfully so. Why don't they just vote this guy out then? No, because there was a... They can't because the election fraud was manipulated by China. It's impossible. When Russia does it to us, Trump wins. When China does it to Canadians, Trudeau wins. It always works, apparently.

40:50 Anyway, right on cue China as if they are playing along with the script does this tonight tensions rising after the US National Security Council says North Korea launched an intercontinental ballistic missile that landed in Japanese waters This new video released earlier today showing what Japanese military officials say appears to be a missile falling from the sky This is an outrageous act which escalates the level of provocation against the international community. Such act is absolutely unacceptable. The United States also strongly condemning North Korea, saying this launch is a flagrant violation of multiple UN Security Council resolution. Japanese officials say the missile was launched from the suburbs of Pyongyang, flying for nearly 66 minutes and roughly 560 miles before falling into the Japanese exclusive economic zone west of the island of Hokkaido.

41:46 So far, no reports of ships or aircraft damaged. What's extraordinary about this video is that you can see the actual flames when it zooms in on the missile body falling. That suggests that this came awfully close to landing on Japanese soil. Officials say today's launch is the first ICBM test since back in November, when North Korea fired the powerful Hwasong-17 ICBM. So I think we're probably gonna kick this off earlier than 2027 I mean, that's also a little bit of wishful thinking because you know, I'd like to retire before 2027 from this show What do you think's gonna happen in 2027? Would you say well, no, that's what everyone's that's what the CIA guy that the bill

42:34 The Bill, William, Bill from the Chiefs of CIA said China will attack in 2027. Because of something China's wrote or something we deciphered, 2027 is a big deal. Yeah. Which doesn't really match with anything else but keeps cropping up. No, because this Ukraine thing has to end and it seems like they're positioning the money. We know where the money is going to come. The money is already there. We just have to make it legal to take it. And then we can start, then BlackRock and JP Morgan can start rebuilding. And Zelensky will do a big piece thing, he'll do it in Minsk, which sounds official. Putin himself won't show up because he will be convicted once he's no longer, well, once he is an elected president again.

43:26 then he will be convicted and we'll throw him in the brink. So he'll be charged and convicted in absentia and we'll just keep doing news reports about how the next election, that's gonna be the one, that's when we go pick him up and he'll pay. I think they can sell this. I think they can sell it. I think Zelensky, he's a great actor. Give him some lines, no problem. Yeah, I got a line from Zelensky, this one. My one Zelensky clip. Hold on, here we go. There is no alternative to speed because it is the speed that the life depends on. The speed? There's no alternatives to speed. There was... When's this guy gonna get a voice coach?

44:14 I think this is actually better than it was. I think he's doing better. I had one too somewhere that someone sent me that I normally would not have played except you played that. Listen to this. Come in the name of peace. Did you see that one? Come in the name of peace. All right, there you go. He's kind of entertaining. He's entertaining me. Alright, I'm sweating now. What you got? You got a whole body. You got like this whole row of things about my stuff's all domestic Yeah, well, it's good. I'm tired of this foreign stuff. I do have a couple just an awesome offbeat clip. I do have an Adam and you do I do you do

45:06 I do have a clip that's called Adam and NTD hate where I can kind of understand why you hate NTD so much. Okay, I'll play it. Another train derailment, more hazardous materials, same company. A Norfolk Southern train carrying hazardous materials derailed outside of Detroit, Michigan yesterday morning. Six train cars crashed off the tracks in Van Buren Township just before 9 a.m. local time. Now why would I hate that? Oh, so you also pronounce it Norfolk? This is N.T.D. I try to. Norfolk. It really doesn't bother me. Listen, we just listened to Zelinsky say, come with piss. So I think Norfolk is acceptable in this case. For people out there who want to know, it's pronounced Norfolk. Norfolk. Yeah, I probably have the most stories about Norfolk.

46:03 Let's go to Mike then. Yeah, okay. All right, what you got? Okay, so there was this... Train wreck! They can't get off Trump. No, it's very hard. And so the thing is, is that listening to NPR, I got two series of clips here, all from NPR. And NPR has become, first, once they lost Gwen Ifill, it became partisan. It became shit. It really went down the tube. She was the one held. We never thought we would miss Gwen Ifill that much, rest in peace. We didn't know. But you could tell when that one important person leaves and that everything changes, you know that one person

46:42 That was the person that was keeping it together. It was Gwen Ifill. Yes. And then Judy came along and she's just like some sort of a lackey for the Democrats. But when she left, now it's worse. Now you're talking about PBS or NPR? PBS. PBS. Oh, you said... Okay. I thought you said NPR. Did I say NPR? I made a mistake. I get them mixed up. But the fact that Gwen Ifill was never really with NPR. She's always PBS. And she was an old pro from the networks. Yes. She was good. So is Judy, but Judy was... The problem we had with Gwen Ifill, the reason why we turned on her stupidly was because, and I learned a new word, this is years and years and years ago, because she wrote a hagiography of Barack Obama. Yeah. And that was just, it was so wrong for her stature.

47:28 But we should have just let that slide. We should have let that slide because now we miss her. Well then she became the host of a debate with Obama up there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So that was... Yeah, she was captured and it sucked. But she still kept it going and so now we've got... I think the group has pretty much turned progressive and gay. And the difference is? Well, it just makes it worse. They're more blatant. Their coverage is really so slanted. I want to play these clips. This is more or less about the Georgia coming back from their grand jury and, oh, and Trump was mentioned, but Trump didn't really do anything, but he could have. Wait a minute. What are you talking about? Oh, the Georgia vote thing?

48:17 What is this about? Well, there was a number of factors, but this all gets back down to Trump's claims about election fraud. Okay. Now, they use loaded language. These clips are all very short because I have to stop them after the guy says three words. But let's go to the word Trump's claims and change it to Trump's false claims. And this has bugged me to no end for years now. What is a false claim? I'm asking you. A false claim. Let's say this.

49:02 I'm going to make the claim that you dyed your hair black. Somebody told me that and so I'm claiming your hair's dyed black. Right, so you are claiming something that doesn't mean that you have proof. I understand what you're saying. So a false claim would be if you said I dyed my hair black but you actually thought it was blonde. That would be a false claim but that would be inside your head. There is really no such thing as a false claim. It's a claim. Yeah, that's what I think it's a claim unless you're totally insincere. In other words, if Trump's claiming, and by the way, this information that these clips mostly come out of the Dominion lawsuit against Fox News. Ah, yes, this is the big one. Okay, got it. So Dominion sues Fox News, and as we all know, if we know anything, that there's a thing called discovery.

49:58 And that's why people try to avoid suits. And so Dominion started digging and digging and digging and they got a bunch of information that indicated that some people at Fox were insincere during this era when, during the election, the 2020 election, and they were saying one thing To the viewers. To the public. Yes. And they were lying. They were lying. Yeah, this is the Fox News takedown that we talked about on the last show. Tucker Carlson texting with Frau Ingraham and talking about Sidney Powell being a nut job. Well, here's the report of this.

50:41 from NPR. I'm sorry, I did it. You got to excuse me for doing that, but from PBS, I got NPR on here too. It's all PBS. Oh, okay. You were confusing me. Yes, it's all PBS. Got it. That's why it's all PBS. I don't have any NPR clips on today's show. So this is the way it starts and here they're gonna get into this the suit and they think they've got Fox over a barrel and here we go. A new court filing shows top executives at Fox News and leading network personalities privately dismissed former President Donald Trump's false claims of voter fraud in the days that followed the 2020 presidential election. Yeah here I see

51:22 I see what you're pointing at. False claims, just claims. You could just say claims. Yeah, it's journalistically, I think, ethically, it's wrong. It's like they should have said claimed without evidence. That would be even better. But false claims is loaded language designed to make you look, make Trump look like a jerk. But this clip, they start off with this, the premise, this is the whole premise, the whole thing. I want you to play this, this is a short clip. Play it one more time. Oh, number one one more time? Yeah. Okay. A new court filing shows top executives at Fox News and leading network personalities privately dismissed former President Donald Trump's false claims of voter fraud in the days that followed the 2020 presidential election. Which to me...

52:10 because I heard all of this all week long on MSNBC, CNN, etc. was really them trying to take down Fox News the clear winners in any ratings race by any observation, any measurement. They do mention that in passing. So, okay, now we're getting... you just heard the premise. Throughout this report, which I only have parts of it, The whole thing, they never bring out any evidence and then they finally bring out two examples and both these examples are bad but let's go to, now this is clip number two of the series. Even as they pushed those same lies on television. Lies! So the, okay now all of a sudden the false claim itself is a lie. Orange!

53:01 I like it. I like it. So this is where they're headed. This is the kind of loaded report we're now getting from NewsHour. Nice. It's slanted as hell and it's loaded with and it's got loaded language. It's very poorly done. Let's go to okay let's go to number three and this one this is where this this is actually not them talking. These are clips. that supposedly exemplify this, but they don't exemplify the hypocrisy that they're claiming. They exemplify the kind of the narrative that they're pushing. And here's clips from Fox that they played. Tonight, every American should be angry. You should be outraged. You should be worried. You should be concerned at what has happened in the election. The Dominion software system has been tagged as one allegedly capable of flipping votes.

53:49 How, for example, did senile hermit Joe Biden get 15 million more votes than his former boss, rockstar crowd surfer Barack Obama? Rockstar crowd surfer. Now, that last clip, which was Tucker Carlson, was from Thursday of last week. Yes, but we might as well use it now. So it's got nothing to do with this case, which is about the election two years ago. So why are they playing these clips now? Did they continue to kind of push the same narrative? Which, you know, they're just... I don't know. It doesn't prove that Tucker was saying, well, Trump's full of shit. He never does that. They don't prove it throughout this entire report. They're just asserting it. Can I make an assertion of my own? Which could be a false claim. Because you mentioned Discovery. And what I picked up, not a clip, but I just picked up some reports,

54:50 that Dominion Discovery documents show employees of Dominion admitting their products are, quote, riddled with critical bugs that could lead to incorrect results. Maybe that has to be shut down a little bit? By going in the other direction, you think? Maybe it's just a thought. Well, they sure didn't bring that point up in this report. Let's go to clip four. The court filings reveal that behind the scenes, many of the network's top stars and executives derided Trump's election lies as quote, mind-blowingly nuts and quote, totally off the rails, even as they criticized colleagues for pointing that out on TV. The filing is part of an ongoing defamation lawsuit filed against the network by Dominion Voting Systems.

55:37 Okay, okay what name names I heard that quote who you quoting people name the name who said these things Surely they say that somewhere else don't they or they know lower third Chiron that has no no no no and nope let's go to I'm just waiting for the names. Where's the names? You give me... they finally bring some stuff out but it's got nothing to do with what their assertion is. Let's go to clip six. Joining us now is David Folken... I'm sorry, this is clip five. Is that the right one? Yes, five. I'm sorry. Joining us now is David Folkenflik, who covers media for NPR. David, thanks for joining us. And first, explain how we learned about these text messages. How they're part of this nearly two billion dollar defamation lawsuit filed against Fox. Right, it's a...

56:24 blockbuster case that's been filed by Dominion Voting Services Systems, an election tech company that is at the core of a lot of these fraudulent claims of fraud. Fraudulent claims of fraud. So that actually means that it is fraud because if it's a fraudulent claim of fraud, then it was not fraud or it was fraud? I don't know. I tell you this is Folkenfolk, whatever this guy's name is. I looked him up. I think that's German. This guy has a hard-on from Rupert Murdoch like nobody. He shouldn't even be allowed to be on TV. Folkenfolk. And I was thinking about this because if you look at all his old works, he's just after Murdoch. He hates Murdoch. Hates him. And who is this guy? What is his background? He's just a kind of a hack journalist that's been doing

57:16 Not a lot. I'm reading the discovery. I'll just intersperse your report with a few brief things. Mark Beckstrand, this is from the discovery document. Mark Beckstrand, who probably has sex with Falkenflik, a Dominion sales manager, confirmed that other parties have gotten a hold of Dominion's equipment illicitly in the past and identified specific instances in Georgia and North Carolina and testified that a Dominion machine was hacked in Michigan. This is in the discovery. So it's not such a wonder that this is happening. So these guys, so this is a, what you, the theory you have here is that this is a smoke screen for the real story, which it probably is. Cover up, yeah. But meanwhile, so this Fulken guy, I was thinking about this because he just had, you can look at his old material, because he's, you know, it's on the net, and it's just hard on for Murdoch, like there's no tomorrow, and I have to assume, because I've seen this happen here and there, and I have examples of it from real,

58:18 life situations in the Bay Area with guys who try to get a job someplace, got refused or kicked out or said no and they get out. They're on the rampage against the company. And so they're just so I think that's what's going on with this guy. So he's useless as a correspondent in this arena with his fraudulent claims of fraud. Would this be... Question. Do you think it's possible... Fraudulent claims of fraud. Do you think it's possible that really all they want is just one thing? They just want Tucker Carlson off the air? I think that's a big part of it. That's gotta be. And Sean Hannity is basically, he's harmless. Froude-Ingraham is the same. They're into entertainment. Well, they go after both of them. I know, but they're entertainment products. They're entertainment products. The next two clips, they go after Tucker, and this is the example they cite. This is a read of some memo. They cite of Tucker showing that he's a phony. Whoa! And I don't see it. I want you to listen to this and tell me what makes you think he's a phony. This is clip seven. No, clip six.

59:22 Oh, I'm sorry. We're getting off. We have a folk and flick one more time. It's a short one. Okay, let's go back with folk and flick. Fraudulent claims of fraud that were ventilated on Fox News in the immediate aftermath of the November 2020 elections. Okay, I kept that in because the use of the word ventilated. Ooh, I kind of like that. Fraudulent claims of fraud that were ventilated. Now I think he meant vented. But I like the whole sequence. Fraudulent claims of fraud that were ventilated on Fox News in the immediate aftermath. This is what you should try with your wife. You know, you're just ventilating fraudulent claims of fraud.

1:00:04 And see how that works, see how your marriage works out. All these clips are just to point out the bad journalism that you're getting from one of the nation's treasures. It's really out of control. But let's go now. Here's their example about Tucker. Brutal, brutal portrait that we have seen about the cynicism, the sense of crisis, the fear and the anger that was generated inside of Fox in reaction to their audiences recoiling from the network's own call of Arizona for Joe Biden on election night, the first of any major network to do so. What becomes clear from reading through this filing is that Fox knowingly peddled election lies for ratings. There's a text in particular from Tucker Carlson, and he is suggesting here that a Fox News White House correspondent should be fired

1:00:56 for fact-checking a Trump claim about the election. He says, please get her fired. I'm actually shocked. It needs to be stopped immediately, like tonight. It's measurably hurting the company. The stock price is down. Not a joke. Not a joke! What? He's using Biden stuff now. So there was some woman on the staff that was doing the typical Washington Post-style fact-checking. Oh, he said six and it was actually seven. Fact check false? So she was doing this and so Tucker said she... not a good look but he said she should be fired. No, a very bad look. Does he have options? But what's it got to do with the original premise? Nothing. The claim that Tucker was saying that the election was fraudulent but behind everyone's back he was saying no Trump's nuts it's not fraudulent at all.

1:01:56 How does that example prove that point? It doesn't at all. The only one I heard is probably the next clip that you have. That's the only text message that... Okay, this next one is an extra day. I think they actually... Oh no, that's another text message. This is about Hannity now. Oh, I thought this was Powell. It's about Hannity and Powell. Oh, okay. And this is another one of their examples and again I'm not seeing it. Play this and you tell me how you're interpreting this because Trump's not even in the conversation. As Sean Hannity, even as he was giving her airtime, he later said in a deposition, quote, the whole narrative that Sidney Powell was pushing, I did not believe it for one second.

1:02:43 Oh no! I listened to Sidney Powell. I didn't believe anything she said either. I also didn't believe Steve Pchenik's nonsense about the military taking over or anybody else. I thought the election was sketchy for other reasons like, you know, people not getting to go check on things, ballots disappearing, ballot harvesting and things like that. You so what they're trying to imply here is that you have to be all in on everything So if you question Sidney Powell, you're a hypocrite Yes, that's what they did with Tucker. Tucker had a text back in exchange with Frau Ingraham. Frau Ingraham says, you know, Powell's full of shit. And then Tucker says, yeah, she's totally full of shit. And what was it? And we need to not be putting her on the air because, you know, people, our people, our viewers believe us.

1:03:43 I mean, and it seems like Tucker is really, he's very concerned for the organization now that, you know, we have that talking about the stock price being down. That's kind of, that is actually more telling about Tucker than I, I didn't expect that he would be so concerned about the company. Fulken Flick is the author of Murdoch's World, The Last of the Old Media Empires. So he wrote the book. He wrote the... Oh yeah, he's just a... So he's no good. This whole report was bad. So the NewsHour show keeps going on and they bring on, late in the show, Brooks and Capehart. Oh no. Oh no. These two guys again, you know.

1:04:27 Yeah. So they bring them on and they revisit the topic. It's time for the analysis of Brooks and Capehart. That's New York Times columnist David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart, associate editor for The Washington Post. With a welcome to you both, let's start with this revelation late last night in this court filing and Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit against Fox News showing that Fox executives and hosts didn't believe the election lies that they were peddling on television. David, what do you make of this notion that Fox determined that telling the truth and being straight with its viewers was not good for its bottom line? Yeah, I don't know whether to feel relieved or not that Tucker didn't really believe what he was saying. Like maybe he has some core in there that's actually honest. What? I don't understand. Yeah. That's a what?

1:05:21 He goes on and takes and picks up the cudgel and goes on with this thing that Tucker was insincere. About the company? No, about the election fraud. You know, all of us, I mean, here in Sainted PBS we don't go after profits, but at the New York Times and most other news organizations, we have two missions. We want to tell the truth, we want to live up to the ethics of our profession. We also want to attract readers and serve our viewers and make money for our company. And you know, dealing with that tension is not unique. Doctors do it, lawyers do it. And so you find a balance and you try to hue to the code of your profession and do it the best you can and hope that readers will appreciate that. At Fox, that's apparently not how it works. Can you believe these guys? I love it. I want to have a drink with them. This is great. And by the way, well, this will be the last one I have.

1:06:19 a comment about their great ethics over there. And that the ethos of following the code of honesty, of reporting, of telling the truth, which is our only job. Our only job is just to tell the truth and not be partisan. That's our job. And if you can't do the basics of the job, then pretty soon you lose all moral bearing. And I think not everybody at that agency, a lot of people really left, but a lot of people who used to be friends of mine, they lost all moral bearing and chose. Wow, that sounds like your friends. The Lib Joes. The Lib Joes. That's exactly what you would say. But a lot of people who used to be friends of mine, they lost all moral bearing and chose. And Jonathan, this in many ways reaffirms what critics of Fox News have believed all along, that even though it has news in the title, that that is a thin veneer at best.

1:07:16 Yeah, very thin. It's more like carpaccio, if you want to give a culinary analogy. Look, look, look, what this Dominion paper, the filing shows is that the big lie is indeed a big lie, and that the people who were perpetuating it knew it was a lie, and yet they still went on air night after night after night perpetuating it to the detriment of our country. And yeah, they lost their balance, they lost their moral core, if any of them had any. If any of them had any. They're a bunch of creeps. This is the most dishonest reporting you could possibly have. Bigoted, biased, name-calling. And meanwhile, well, going on and on about this, they're so great. Did they even discuss during the Capehart and Brooks segment the fact that the Kavanaugh accusers

1:08:15 Two of them so far have reneged on their accusations about rape and all the rest of it? I don't recall that. No, of course not. Nobody's covering it. But the Kavanaugh accusers are now being referred to the Justice Department by Grassley for perjury. This is a repressed story. Look it up. Google it. Oh, I need this stuff. So, I've just found it the worst kind of reporting, biased and bigoted, dishonest, and that's what PBS has become.

1:08:58 Fraudulent claims against fraud. Yeah. Are you surprised? Disappointed? No, I just like to get worked up. Well, that's successful. Here's the actual text that I was referring to. Tucker Carlson text. Sidney Powell is lying by the way. I caught her. It's insane. Laura Ingraham. Sidney is a complete nut. No one will work with her. Ditto with Rudy. Tucker. It's unbelievably offensive to me. Our viewers are good people and they believe it. What a horrible thing to say as a television journalist. Horrible to protect the good people who are the viewers. Tucker's a real company man. That surprises me. He must, I mean, I wonder if a lot of his compensation is based on options now. And now I have to think about that. Oh, that could be. That would be a good way to pay him. You can read the 183 pages of the filing.

1:09:57 There's a lot of, you remember Eric Coomer, director of product strategy, just a couple weeks before the election, he acknowledged that quote, our shit is just riddled with bugs. Our products suck. That almost all of Dominion's technological failings were due to our complete effing up the installation. He identified critical bug leading to incorrect results. I mean, this is the cover-up. This is exactly the way, and I guess I'm going to have to bring some clips now, of how all media, except maybe Tucker or some Fox reporting, but basically they all suck, of the Twitter files. You know, all you hear on, and you should probably look at PBS and NPR as well,

1:10:47 Oh, it's just the conspiracy theories. They're saying the FBI was running Twitter. That's crazy talk. And they just play a couple of clips of Tucker. You know, they don't actually show you any of the documents that are coming out. And the problem is, it's not even the media anymore. It's the medium. I think podcasting is the only place you can get... I don't know how to do that. That was good. Did you like that one? It was funny. Sorry, it was just out of the... If we're gonna bitch and moan about people, I do have a couple more clips I want to play. I'm glad you do. Don Lemon. I have thoughts about Don Lemon. Can I just give you my thoughts off the bat? And then you got... I have no clips, but I think Don Lemon is a genius.

1:11:38 Don Lemon has taken this he now he knows that he has a job to do He knows that he failed in his prime time slot more or less prime time He knows that he's on his last leg. Now, I know that you're thinking according to the newsletter is that you know, this is brilliant. The new boss at CNN is trying to get him out. I think Don Lemon has grabbed this and has said, you know what? I'm gonna get everybody watching because that's the result of this. With everything he says, more people are going to watch. This is how you run a A cable news show you need to have controversy so people show up and I think he's doing the right thing here Well, you know that would make a lot of sense if he showed up after the fact and he just went on vacation So he's not gonna be there. Well, but so that kind of blows that theory. I have bonus clips Oh, I'm sorry, but you didn't alert me to any bonus. I forgot to alert you earlier You should always have them so I never do that this clip activity

1:12:38 No, you all you always say did you get the bonus clips? I know I always say it and you always say yep I got him. What do you think? That's right. I decided so that's what you call a typical double fail where you did the one time I don't ask is the one time You don't do it. Which makes me wonder but what's ever do it? No, but what's really cool is is that you and I know how this works, so you gave me enough time there to rack them up and I'm good to go. All you need to do is just tell me which bonus clip you want because I have them right here. So I have two Don Lemon clips, one of them, what are they labelled because I don't have them in front of me. B Don, I got B Don, B Don Lemon Blondaire, B Meyer on CNN, B Mooch Cuomo, B Mooch Opener. Okay, B Don Lemon whatever it was. This whole talk about AIDS makes me uncomfortable. Okay, hold on a second, wait let's stop. I do have to set it up. You do.

1:13:35 So on the morning show, this came after Nikki Haley jokingly said, I don't understand why they don't give everybody a cognitive test. He took his physical and he passed it in flying colors but he never took a cognitive test even though It's funny, the same Democrats are the ones moaning and groaning about Trump getting one. He did get one. But Biden hasn't gotten one. Hey, you are like listening to Twitter. This is great. All right. Yes. Oh, gee. You should try Tim Pool. This is exactly what people... You want me to finish this or no? You're just going to go on and on. I want to antagonize you to get more out of you. This is great.

1:14:14 So she brought this up and so this rubbed Don Lemon the wrong way because Don Lemon's a Democrat and he's pushing for Biden to get re-elected and he didn't think this was much of this idea, you know. And then he called out Nikki Haley and Hilarity ensued. It depends on it's just like prime if you look it up. It'll say if you look if you google When is a woman in her prime? It'll say 20s 30s and 40s. I don't necessarily agree with that so I think she has to be careful about saying that we you know politicians aren't in their prime you need to qualify are you talking about prime for like China

1:15:09 I Google? Google or whatever it is. Now I'm just going to counter you. I think you should be a little more pragmatic about this. It's not because he's a Democrat, it's because he's gay. He hates women. He's surrounded by beautiful women. He's the kind of gay guy that hates women. I agree with that. I could have brought that up but I didn't. Because a lot of gay guys love women. But he's still a big Biden man and yes he hates women and there are gay, a lot of gay men who hate women and there's a lot of gay women who hate men. Yes.

1:15:55 so that's why I thought it was genius to put him in that show with two genius two carping women who would just go after anything he says because I don't think they like gay men. No, and this is what I'm in agreement with you I think they're doing their job but somehow it's I'm looking at the ratings it really isn't catching on but it should the formula of gay guy hates women two women who hate gays gay Gay guys. I agree. It's a winning formula! But somehow they're not able to execute so that just comes down to CNN management. Don Lemon's doing his job as far as I'm concerned. By being a dick. Yes! So he took off and now he's in Miami so he's not coming back and playing the... What? He's in a red state? Are you kidding me? He went to Miami? Well, he's in some... Where? Where? Where you can't say gay? That's where he went. That's all I can say. Oh see, he's a hypocrite. And so...

1:16:53 So anyway, but then the joke of it I'm like this is not a great clip But this is the clip from the Mars show where one of the women on there on this This is the show that played on CNN, you know tomorrow immediately That drew 90,000 viewers. Yeah Yeah, all of. We literally have ten times that amount listening to this blather we're doing right now. That's the best part. So Marr goes on, he gets money, he's getting more money for his 90,000 viewers than we are for our 90,000. I hope he didn't take stock. So he goes on CNN and this is the after show that he used to give away for free online, now it's on CNN. After his Friday show, he does his Friday show and they do an after show and you can watch that if you want and nobody did. And so CNN looking for material said, hey Bill, give us that show and we'll just put it on the air and here's some money. Nikki Haley has... Sorry.

1:17:49 and anyway so he puts his on here and so he's got has to have mixed feelings about the woman that's on there kind of kvetching about CNN itself. Nikki Haley has called for politicians over 75 years old to oh yes to be required to take a mental health competency test. I wonder who that's aimed at? Both of them, right? I think she's trolling. It allows her to draw attention to Biden. She's in a Republican primary, but it's a subtle hit on Trump. They're both older politicians. They have every right to run. The competency test is a really long campaign, and people will assess how they seem. But shouldn't we do that for everybody? Why just over 75? Because... I mean... Over here, Mike.

1:18:41 It would clear out the House of Representatives. Right. There's only one age requirement. The Constitution has a minimum age and that was because they were so worried about people passing things on to their famous sons at the time. There's no maximum age, but we have that for pilots and other things. But again, I think it's hard. If you've covered these things, you know how it is. It's hard to run for president. We're going to see how they do. And then you're going to decide at the debates and other forums whether they seem like they got it. Well, and as Don Lemon told us on CNN, women actually can't run for president because he said we're past our prime once we get to our 40s. But since you have to be 35 to run, it's like this really tight window between 35 and 40.

1:19:24 Now tell me this show doesn't have music under it. I'm hoping it doesn't. I picked that off of somebody who clipped it and decided... I refuse to play that if there's music under it. Well I couldn't find... I'm not gonna go to CNN and dig through the archives to find it. So I took the clip. I ripped the clip off. So there's something that goes along with this particular story. about cognizant, the cognition of our politicians and of course you know we ha ha ha it's Haley ha ha ha it's Orange Man bad but here's the real story. Also at Walter Reed today President Biden who was there for his annual checkup a matter of high interest as the president who is now 80 years old is expected to run again. ABC's Stephanie Ramos at the White House for us and Stephanie what are we learning from the president's doctor tonight?

1:20:11 Well, with that five page detailed health report released right before our show overall, President Biden getting a clean bill of health today. He spent three hours at Walter Reed undergoing many tests. In that health report, the President's doctor says Biden continues to be treated for four different conditions. A type of irregular heart rhythm, higher concentrations of fats or lipids in the blood, also known as high cholesterol, gastroesophageal reflux and seasonal allergies. The summary says Biden did not experience any long COVID following his bout with the virus in July of 2022. His doctor also says that Biden is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.

1:20:51 No, where's the brain analysis? Well, they also left something out that everybody else kind of brought up, which he has an awkward gait. Yeah. And the doctor brought it up. And I was thinking about this because this goes back to our shows been on for a long time. Yeah. And we used to do a segment about Biden. called, and we have a jingle for it, called drunk or not drunk. I don't think that's true. Did that start with Biden? Yes. I don't... Um, where's the jingle? Oh, here it is. Yes, we do. Are you sure?

1:21:30 Was that about Biden? I'm pretty sure it was about Biden. I'm not pretty sure. I'm convinced it's about Biden because we had a lot of Biden clips because he was always slurring and his energy was off and we'd play a clip of Biden and then it would be drunk or not drunk. But we have him for Nadler, for Kamala, we do have him for, oh George Bush? Yeah, Bush is always sounding drunk too. But there was a lot of Biden clips and Biden goes way back with having this kind of high, you know, energy and then having this drunk sound. I think he was an alcoholic and I think that's where that gate comes from because I've, that gate, I have seen that gate

1:22:11 number of times from out-and-out drunks that lived in the neighborhoods I've been in. I think he's just old and senile. I mean why throw it on the drunk thing? He's just old and senile. I'm just saying, you get a gate like that, he's old and senile. Okay. He is old and senile. Now, I'm on the domestic beat condemning things. Yes, yeah. So, Anthony Scaramucci has a podcast now. Yeah. Really? You're really digging at the bottom of the barrel when you're going to Anthony Scaramucci's podcast. And I think I may have had some influence on it because he did one of his first podcasts technically with me. Well, he's also friends with Horowitz. Yeah. Oh, they are. Yes, they are friends because of the investment angle. But he's also super good friends, super good, super good friends with Cuomo. With Cuomo.

1:23:07 He's a fair weather friend. And so he had Cuomo on his podcast, and this is because I wanted to get this clip since we're bashing Don Lemon of Cuomo saying that when he got fired from CNN, he wanted to kill everyone and then kill himself. The good time is going to go away. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You're giving me cues. Yeah, I'm sorry. But. So the thing is I got two clips here. First I've got the opening clip of his show, which got nothing to do with Cuomo. I just want to point out to you, it's out of phase. Now, not everybody knows what that means.

1:23:45 But you do, I do. Yes, it sounds like you're talking through your butthole. It's out of phase and you get that you can get out of phase using stereo mics. There's a lot of different ways you can achieve this sound, but it's not wanted. It's not the idea. It's not the idea. And his, so his, he, and the thing is his local, he's out of phase. His guests not aren't necessarily which makes it even more rinky-dink goodness But I want to play the beginning of him so you can hear what I'm talking about with the out-of-phase Situation with the recording

1:24:24 Tell music is good. I am Anthony Scaramucci and welcome to Open Book where I talk with some of the most interesting and brilliant minds in our world today. In this show, I'll bring on guests in business, politics, entertainment, and more to go deep into a piece of their work, whether it's a highly anticipated book, an in-depth feature story, or an opinion piece that has captured my attention. We'll dig into why it matters to you and how their work is shaping our future. Yeah, how about a little detail on your investment with FTX there, Mooch? That was a winner. He also pops his Ps. What kind of mic does he use? Maybe the mic. Maybe using a weird mic that he's configuring.

1:25:11 usually contribute to I face people have like these you get these USB mics that Jim people run through a mixer that could be a Yeah, well, there's a lot of possibilities. Whatever the case is he hasn't got a Pop filter and he's popping his peas and his and he's and he's awkward. He doesn't feel comfortable You can tell he doesn't like doing this. I don't know why he's doing it, but he did have Cuomo on and Cuomo here It's not as spectacular as I'd hoped but Cuomo does say He was wanted to shoot everybody at CNN and then kill himself after he got fired. And by the way, if people want to hear a self-absorbed person being interviewed, go find this Scaramucci podcast and listen to

1:25:57 Cuomo just talks about himself excessively. And it's like he's just really must be insufferable in person. But this is the part, it's not as great as I'd hoped, but I'm thinking now he's working for this other operation, News Reality or News, whatever it's called. Newsletter, news, news. Newsletter. And I would say I would be really skeptical about being a producer for him if this is what he thinks. Here it is for people who want to know half of his producers were child fiddlers. Yeah, is that okay? The good time is gonna go away. The bad time is also gonna go away. I'm is immutable No question. Holy crap. Everything's out of phase. This is yeah, this whole thing is out of phase, right? But it's very subjective just because a long time goes away doesn't mean you got to be doing the right things in

1:26:49 You gotta make things happen. There is no luck, there is no fate, there is no destiny. What happens is what you make happen and how you deal with what is made to happen to you, for better or worse. And, you know, I make a lot of mistakes. Sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad reasons. I'm very flawed, there's damage, there's damage that's relatable to people, there's damage that's unrelatable to people that I have to deal with, that I try to deal with, that I do the work on. I still fail. And I have learned to accept that I had to accept because I was going to kill everybody, including myself. Things can consume you. Italians are so passionate and I really had to fight against that because

1:27:29 You know, just like you did. I got too many people counting on me. Does he? I got so many people counting on me. Does he is he have a book out about him wanting to kill him? That's probably this is a setup. Either it's out or he's getting ready for his promoting a book about his I almost I wanted to kill everybody. Wanted to kill myself. It's all about me. Look at me because Italians are passionate. Screw this guy don't close. I forbid you close. Oh, you're close, but you're Believe me you're close, but the thing is he had a book deal that was killed after he was fired And he's suing the publisher so they've got no book coming out and you start suing publishers You're gonna be oh yeah, you're never gonna get a book. That's like saying I was discriminated against as a woman I didn't get a raise that's right. You're never working in television again Natalie Morris well

1:28:23 I think the better one is Kat Sadler down at E! News. Alright, back to gay. Because you tell me, since you're the expert, is this a man or a woman speaking? One example would be the quote-unquote don't say gay law in Florida. You know, studies show that one supportive adult... Man or woman? Man. And what is the man's name? Karen? No, Rachel! That's Rachel? That's Rachel Levine. Oh, it sounds like a man. Well, looks like a woman. One supportive adult for an eligible... Actually, this is a pretty interesting clip. I've carried this over for a few shows. This is what Rachel Levine had to say, and it's about Florida. This is why I play it. The don't say gay law, but just listen to what he, she... I think it used to be Richard. I'm just gonna deadname because this... I don't even believe that Rachel Levine is transferred because

1:29:22 Because he believes he's trans. I just it's hard for me to believe that seems like a gag Kind of like the guy like the guy like the shot teacher Yeah with the big boobs exactly feels like a gag a gag one example would be the quote-unquote don't say gay law in Florida, you know studies show that one supportive adult One supportive adult for an LGBTQI plus kid can make all the difference in terms of preventing suicide, in terms of them being able to navigate the world and to adulthood and leading a happy, successful, productive life. One supportive adult. I'd love if that was always the parent, but it's not always a parent. Frequently it's a teacher.

1:30:05 or a guidance counselor or some other coach or another school personnel. This law forbids kids essentially from talking to these people. Also, it means that if you tell a teacher, the teacher has to tell the parent. It really is a gag rule. It's a gag law to prevent kids from accessing supportive adults. So really it's better if the support, if just one, you only need one supportive adult. This is, yes, I think if a teacher, whatever your child is going through, a teacher should talk to the parents about it. Shouldn't be just, and especially not if teachers just have the capabilities, then oh let's go talk to this doctor over here. Anyway, that's your assistant secretary of health and human services.

1:30:55 So now let's listen to DeSantos, as you would say. But I don't like it. So what is the digital bill of rights? Well, we want to protect your right as a Floridian to have private in-person conversations without big tech surveilling you. If you want to consent to let them have this information so they can fashion advertising based off of it, It's your right to consent to do so, but it should only be if you consent and they don't have a right to have that information as a matter of first principle. We also are going to protect the right to participate in online platforms without unfair censorship. We want free speech, we want more speech, not less speech.

1:31:45 We want to protect the right to know how these Internet search engines are manipulating search results. Transparency in terms of what we're doing so that you can evaluate whether that's a search engine that you want to use or maybe you want to take your business elsewhere. We want to protect your right to control all your personal data on the largest and most common platforms. They take that personal data and they make a fortune off your personal data. So you're talking about Google, Facebook, just a handful of these companies. They should really get express authorization from you before they're able to monetize that or use it in any way. And then finally, Digital Bill of Rights aims to protect children from various online harms. And as we see, that's a huge issue.

1:32:34 Yeah, somebody think of the children. There should be no legislation. This digital, especially call it the digital bill of rights. No, these are all rights we have. Instead of, what they want, what DeSantis wants is he wants control. He wants to control the internet. This is why they all, net neutrality is the same thing. I mean, this will not end well. You don't really want this. You want education. You want to tell people, here's all the crap that's going down. Here's the systems and here's the companies that do it. Here's what they do. Just educate people continuously. That's what they need. Not, oh, government's going to save me. Government's going to protect me. That has never worked out. I'm hoping you would agree with me on this.

1:33:26 Well, just to take the other side of it, because you do that to me now every day. Well, you deserve it. I would say, I would say it's just blather. It's just, he's just talking out of his ass because none of this is gonna happen one way or the other. Digital Bill of Rights is just gonna be net neutality. It's just bullshit. That's just as good. I'll take that. Uh, look, okay, I want to move to climate change because there's stuff happening. Yes, yes, there's good stuff happening in climate change. The war on meat. Yeah, baby! The war on meat! Let's make meat look bad! We also learned today that a Wisconsin company paid more than one and a half million dollars in fines for violating child labor laws.

1:34:13 The Labor Department says Packer Sanitation Services had more than 100 children, some as young as 13, working at more than a dozen meat processing plants in eight states. I had jobs like that, not meat packing. I wouldn't think so. No, but I did work for a farm, I worked for a butcher, I did some stuff, I didn't actually pack the meat, but I was around. I mean, are you not allowed to have a job when you're 13? Like a Saturday job? I had jobs when I was 13. I had jobs. I was a paperboy. Same with me. Is that not allowed anymore?

1:34:53 I think it is, but I think when I was a kid and I wanted to work in a factory, which is you know in high school for example, you had to get a work permit. Oh okay, I've never gotten that. And so I got a work permit to work a full-time job during the summer and I think you had to be 14 to get the work permit or 15 to 14 probably. And you get these, it was just a rubber stamp thing. Exactly. Meanwhile, buy Nike. There's no children involved in gluing that together. All right. Well, that's a good point. It's a kind of hypocritical report. Let's go down to the electric vehicles. There's a hit out on EVs. It has to happen because we're moving to clean hydrogen.

1:35:41 Which just will not work. 56,000 hydrogen vehicles already on the road in America. So they say. Pierce Bloomberg... Kind of setting the narrative. This is their podcast by the way setting the narrative with this guy Steven Shork About just how bad electric vehicles are for the environment this obviously revolves around the battery You said a line there. I think it was EVs are certainly not that environmentally friendly explain that to us. Yeah Yeah, I mean, just look what's happening in California right now. We're at the first life cycle ending of those solar panels. California does not, never had a plan to dispose of those solar panels. So now all the heavy metal, those solar panels are sitting in

1:36:27 dumps with the potential of all the heavy metals in there leaking out into the environment. And now when you factor in the fact that EVs are such a small percentage of the global market, when we talk about the amount of earth and we're talking about something about the size of the state of Arizona and Nevada, just here in the United States, to see our demand. The amount of earth you're going to have to rip up to get to these heavy metals, so we're ripping up China, we're going to rip up the Congo, which we already are, we're going to rip up Argentina to get to the cobalt there. When we have to rip up that earth, it will make 120, 130 years of coal mining and oil drilling look like a pinprick of the

1:37:09 amount of environmental degradation we're going to have to do to get those virtual signaling heavy metals into that EV battery. Stephen, why aren't we having that conversation more? I don't know. I mean, it's because we're such a fractured political nation. If I'm saying something, 49, 50 percent of the people watching this think I'm nuts and think I'm some kind of I'm pushing some sort of agenda. I'm just looking for a meeting of the minds. And I want to I want to I want to really promote my hybrid. It's the best of both worlds. It's a little bit of fossil fuel. Yeah, Toyota.

1:38:00 Experimental driver assistance software may cause crashes. Federal investigators say Tesla's full self-driving beta software can send cars straight through intersections. Where there's a turn-only lane, fail to come to a full stop at stop signs, or blow through yellow lights, Tesla says it will update the software in the impacted vehicles. So the choice here... for the term recall is very interesting for CBS. This is very controversial. NPR locally, I didn't have the clip but I was gonna get it, it just seemed a little long and boring but they made a big fuss of it. Tesla made the fuss, it was Musk. He said why we're not nobody has to drive their car in this is an over-the-ware software fix. Why do you insist on calling it a recall and

1:38:46 NPR persisted on calling it a recall as though they were in on it. Here's ABC CEO Elon Musk is taking issue with the word recall saying using that word for an over-the-air software update is just plain wrong. Yeah but he's on the losing end. He's on the losing end. Meanwhile... Buzz, I can do a clip for this series. Tesla crash! A person is dead after a Tesla slammed into a fire truck in the East Bay. Happened this morning on northbound 680. Firefighters say that Tesla hit a truck that was blocking a different crash. The driver died at the scene. The passenger and four firefighters were taken to the hospital. They have all since been released. Oh yeah. I love the Super Bowl commercials. Those people who hate Tesla.

1:39:34 Wasn't that, yeah, that was Tesla, right? They're out to get him. They're out to get, they're out to... Well ever since Musk said vote Republican, this began. Ever since the Twitter files. Of course. Maybe he's not that smart. What? Did I just say that? Maybe this is a part of a bigger play. No, no. He's just not impressive. I've met him. He's not impressive. He didn't start these companies. He was put in there by Sequoia Capital, Rulof Bota is the CEO, another South African, it's a cabal. And you know, and his hair is fake news. I hate to do it, but it's just like, you know, he was really, really unattractive and balding and now he's just not balding and unattractive. And it just doesn't seem smart. He just talks interestingly. All right, The View had a scoop.

1:40:28 She didn't come to see them of course because she no longer flies, but I guess Greta is back on the scene. In the last five years, Greta Thunberg has gone from a solo student activist to an international icon in the movement to combat climate change. Now she and more than 100 experts are sounding yet another global warning on the crisis in the climate book, which is right here, joining us from Sweden Please welcome Greta Thunberg. Thank you for coming on the show. Congratulations on the book. We should point out that it's been 60 degrees here in New York this week in mid-February. Just saying. Just saying. Didn't we have like an Arctic bomb?

1:41:21 Just saying, weather's not climate. I wonder how would you describe where we stand today in terms of the climate crisis? Are we better or worse off than when you began striking five years ago? Now what would the answer be to this question? Worse off, of course. Is that really your full answer? If you're Greta, that's all you would say? We're just worse off? How dare you? How very dare you. It depends on how you see it. If you see it from one perspective, the concentration, the level of CO2 in the atmosphere is higher now than it was before. And we are seeing more and more natural disasters. More people are displaced, more people are losing their lives and livelihoods due to the consequences of the climate crisis. So in that sense... Who's losing a job over the consequence of the climate crisis?

1:42:15 Ukrainians are displaced, more people are losing their lives and livelihoods due to the consequences of the climate crisis. So in that sense, we are far worse off than we were before. But also we can see that more and more people are starting to stand up and speak out about these issues and more people are mobilizing. But it's going way, way too slow. So I would say we're both better off and much worse off. It's better and worse. Wrong. My question would be what do you think of those stickers on gas tanks and gas stations of you? What do you think? That's a bad question. No, no, no, we can't do that. We have to bring in some culture. And Greta, speaking of climate... I'm sorry, go ahead. I was gonna say if I was gonna ask her stuff, I'd ask her if she's okay with all these private jets that fly into these climate meetups. Well, she doesn't fly anymore, you see. She doesn't fly anymore. No, but is she okay with everybody else flying in and the private jets?

1:43:13 Did I play the Bill Gates answer to that question? I don't think I did. What, that Jeffrey Epstein is dead? No, no. About the private jet. The BBC asked Gates that very question. What do you say to the charge that if you are a climate change campaigner but you also travel around the world in a private jet, you're a hypocrite? I, by the gold standard of funding Climeworks to do direct air capture, that far exceeds my family's carbon footprint. And I spend billions of dollars on climate innovation. I'm so good! So, you know, should I stay at home and not come to Kenya and learn about farming and malaria?

1:44:02 Anyway, I mean I'm uncomfortable with the idea that not only am I not part of the problem by paying for the offsets but also through the billions that my breakthrough energy group is spending that I'm part of the solution. I'm good, I'm virtuous, I spend money. There should be a follow-up question. I could have been the one to ask it even though everyone else should have asked it. Bill? You used to refuse to fly in private jets and only go commercial. That's right. In fact, you'd fly economy. And he'd fly coach, that's right. I remember that. He always flew coach. In fact, and the thing, of course, the gimmick there was he flew coach, but he always got upgraded.

1:44:44 by the airline because he was so rich. So they always move him in the first class and I ran into him once on a flight and I went in first class where he was and chatted with him for a bit and I went back to coach afterwards. Where you belong. Where I belong, steerage. And so he used to always do that. He refused to get a private jet until he married Melinda's the one who got him to buy a jet. Now I think once he was on that Epstein Lolita Express he's like this is the ship. I think that's what happened. I think he got on the Epstein plane after he got married. I'm going to skip the Greta because it's just not interesting because now that Africa is... I just need to play a couple of Africa clips because Africa is so on deck. Now we are going to... not that we haven't been already, but the EU, China, United States, Russia, all positioning to rape Africa. But we got to change a few things first. Here's Antonio Guentheras.

1:45:42 who is the Secretary General of the United Nations. After the opening of the African Union Summit, the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said that the African countries are being denied much needed debt relief. He sought reforms to the structures of international finance to better serve the needs of developing countries. Investing in Africa pathways to prosperity requires finance and developing countries are repeatedly left in the lurch. The global financial system routinely denies them debt relief and concessional financing while charging extortionate interest rates.

1:46:20 As a result, vital systems are starved of investment from health and education to green technology, social protection and the creation of new sustainable jobs. Now this is the thing we keep hearing is that we need to change international finance. This is not being done the right way. We've heard we need to change the leadership at the World Bank because we need everyone to come together. finance Africa for climate change and they got their wish. clear.

1:47:20 billion dollars for Turkey. He has though courted controversy. Last year he declined to say whether he believed human activity contributed to climate change. He later said he had been misunderstood. The World Bank has made the green transition and fighting climate change a key pillar of its mandate. Yeah, okay, so there you go. We got rid of the problem guy. We can now put everyone's money to work and we now have a clear signal Whenever war is coming to a country, you first get this report. The satellite-based internet soon to be provided by billionaire Elon Musk's high-speed satellite internet venture is expected to give students and teachers in Rwanda access to educational resources and digital tools. The program is expected to begin this February. Yeah. Whenever Elon Musk deploys Starlink to a country, war is coming.

1:48:17 Because that's the sales job once you have it deployed then you just flip the switch and sell it to the military under what's it called? Defense link or whatever. Yeah, same thing. Yeah, same thing only a hundred times as expensive So Africa, you know for and luckily Dave Ackerman is scouring Africa news every single day Because that's the only news we'll get about it except that everyone has been to different African countries. The Russians, the Chinese, we have the Brits. Everyone's going to Africa. Getting it all set up. I think they're divvying it up behind the scenes somewhere. What do you mean they're giving it up? Divvying. Oh, divvying. Oh yeah. Possible. Very possible. Let me see.

1:49:07 Well, if you're talking about climate, let's play this old clip of mine, an NPR clip on DeSantis. You have to look it up because it's from a couple of shows ago. DeSantis and climate change. Bring him back into the picture. Got it. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has touted a record amount of spending to help his state prepare for the effects of climate change. But his policy on that front is coming under scrutiny by many residents still reeling from Hurricane Ian. Amy Green of WMFE in Orlando reports.

1:49:48 Jason Diaz awoke in the middle of the night to the sound of trickling water. When I stepped up, I was already ankle deep in water. The next few hours were a blur of evacuating family members and neighbors and swimming through five feet of water. A few days later, Diaz sat near a noisy, idling bus outside the Kissimmee Civic Center, which had been turned into a shelter for the displaced like him. Virtually everything he owned was swamped back at his apartment. I might get emotional. I had a collection of collectibles for my grandkids that I've been collecting for 30 years and that's all gone. When Hurricane Ian hit Florida, it destroyed coastal communities in southwest Florida before causing widespread flooding across the state's interior. The hurricane shows what states like Florida face as climate change leads to more extreme weather.

1:50:43 DeSantis has focused his climate change policy on resilience. Under his leadership, the state has put more than a billion dollars toward hardening infrastructure against rising seas and more destructive storms. The governor, a Republican, faces re-election next month and is considered a potential frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination in 2024. During a stop in Daytona Beach, DeSantis said he's noticed that newer infrastructure seemed to fare better against Hurricane Ian. The stuff that was new, same with some of the homes, you do see the impact of that and so I think we were right to do things like we have with the resilient coastline. DeSantis' program was signed into law in 2021, which means it's unlikely to have had a big impact on infrastructure before the hurricane.

1:51:31 Environmental groups say the governor's climate change policy is long overdue. That was really pretty boring. It was very boring, that's why it wasn't played. What was that actually about? It was about DeSantis being a climatologist who's gonna be a good guy to vote for. Was that NTD? Tell me it was. No, that was NPR. Which makes no sense if you think about it. Oh, that actually kind of hurt. Could you have something else before we get to it? Here's, I'll tell you what we're gonna do. We have not even touched on Ohio. I know everyone's so excited to talk about Ohio, so we'll have to talk about Ohio. Ohio, Ohio, Ohio, because that's all we can talk about because it's the political gambit of the hour abused by every, every politician almost from the get-go.

1:52:21 And also about Turquier. Turquier, there's some news we should talk about there. But before that I'd like to say in the morning to you the man who put the C in the fraudulent claims of fraud, ladies and gentlemen, please say hello to my friend on the other end, Mr. John C. DeVore! Well in the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry also in the morning all ships and sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there. In the morning to the trolls over there in the troll room we've had a lot of trolls hanging out in the troll room and you can be one if you want trollroom.io you can log in right there you do need an email address that actually works I mean some trolls think to oh I can circumvent this by doing a fake email address no because you have to confirm that you're that you're there

1:53:05 So we have so we can register trolls and track you down and shoot you. So let's count them. 2294. I think that's a good number. Yeah, you know, it's pretty standard for Sunday. Well, that's not bad. It's been worse. That's for sure. Trolls, trolls. You can also become a troll in the following manner. Get a new app, a modern app. That actually has all these capabilities and we have a new website. It used to be newpodcastapps.com still in play. Now we have podcastapps.com. These are the ones you want. And guess what's not on there? Apple, Spotify, podcastapps.com. You can find many modern podcast apps where you can actually get an alert

1:53:54 Go straight into the troll room troll wrong here the live stream and you get all your podcasts in there as well. That's pod verse podcast attic cast a Curio caster all of these work perfectly Yeah, now let us oh, of course. We also have no agenda social comm where you can follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. DeBorek at noagendasocial.com. No digital bill of rights over there. You do whatever you want pretty much. Just don't piss me off because then I can kick you off if I feel like it or if John tells me to, which happens a lot. John will say, kick that guy off. Like, okay. I've liked twice. Okay, alright. In five years. Now let us thank the artists, the No Agenda artists who are incredibly kind with their value they contribute to the show every single show while we're doing it live they are creating art we will use one of these pieces we'll choose it right after the show is done we thank the artist for

1:54:51 episode 1530 we titled that one Red Queen. Roger Roundy had a it just made us laugh it had kind of it had a nice appeal to it this was the what are those Flowers are those like those yellow flowers. This is a flower of some sort It looks like a water lily of some sort Yeah, it looks a bit like a lily. I'm sorry about your pipeline love CIA and curry Dvorak separated by a little cartoonish bomb Somehow it struck the right chord with us. Well, it definitely made you laugh a lot. Yeah, I did well I laugh that's kind of I

1:55:29 What I'm looking for? I'm always looking for a piece of laugh that makes... A cheap laugh. A cheap laugh, yes, that makes both of us chuckle is even better. There were a couple ones in there that were pretty cheap. Let's see. A lot has been added, I can see now. We actually debated quite a while about the aircraft with the pins, with the pre-wings. I used it for the newsletter. I saw that. Now, what was at issue with this? Well, for one thing, it's not an F-22 Raptor. I believe that's an F-16. It's a faux pas of epic proportions, obviously. And it's also clip art, which is fine. He's probably licensed it. But it's been around a little too much. That clip art I've seen too often. Yeah, and it was really... we always do the Google image search. But the pins were dynamite. Yes.

1:56:24 I mean we could have used it, but we're just really afraid of comics or blogger giving a shit So yeah, he's gonna go off on it's really so who created the comic strip blogger had a really good piece But we both knew just by looking at that. It was done by AI so automatically off the list we thought the Was that Kareen Abdul-jabbar top gun by Ness works very funny very racist we figured that wouldn't work and She had her which one was this she's the pilot. She's the Top Gun pilot We knew that we would be called out for racist. We just saw it like now. It's not gonna work. Oh Yeah, no, that's no good L Biden, which is kind of funny, but we don't like L Biden. Yeah, we don't like yeah the green L Biden. Oh

1:57:13 Well, that's the comic strip blogger one that obviously can't draw. That's right. That's the one that we hated because it's a and I like the one next to it to this sneaky bearcat, but it's a little very obscure very obscure obscure Then there was some poker stuff Some confusing stuff What was this? Ween which I still don't understand still talking about balloons Capitalist agenda had a Red Queen rising I'd say semi cheesecake, which we like but no one would understand it Everything seemed messy to me

1:57:53 I mean it was it was it wasn't a show with a lot of material that would be amenable for spot art So you're saying that we failed we fell down we didn't have we didn't have a show that has good topics Or good gags or good jokes. Well. Yeah, I'm saying it's possible. It's possible. It's possible well anyway Roger Roundy, I think he was very surprised himself and Yeah, no his he's the pieces that when he's won. It's never for his good art, right? When he when he's swinging to swing out of his cleats it never happens Just throw something out there. Yeah, we'll go for that. Thank you very much Roger Roundy We appreciate that in the work of all of the artists who support no agenda with value for value We ask for your time your talent your treasure

1:58:38 Go look at the gitmo list.org. You see all of the things that people have put up at websites including noagendashow.net, including noagendameetups.com. I mean the only thing we've actually done ourself is dvorak.org slash na and it's problematic. So and by the way it's changing I hear. I'm getting that change. First quarter. First quarter. Now we'd like to thank our producers. We have... Yeah, let me do the first one because the second one is by special request. Okay. And the first one here... Can I just finish my rap about producers?

She was the oldest of three siblings, age 43, and the only daughter to my parents. She leaves behind her loving husband Mike. They were together for almost 26 years. High school sweethearts started dating at age 17 and they never had a fight. My sister hit me in the mouth beginning of the nonsense

2:02:44 And they're still trying to sell as COVID back in March of 2020. I've listened to every podcast since and always appreciated the conversation and laughter with my sister while discussing the latest episodes. Unfortunately, I've been a douchebag, but I know my sister was part of the sustainable donation for some time and proudly contributed to the best podcast in the universe, working toward her Damehood. I wanted this donation to ensure that she can sit at the big table in heaven and celebrate her Dame name, Dame... Delphinium jesser and it's a thousand dollars by the way. At the round table please serve up some grass-fed beef from the local ranch, pure h2o, fresh garden vegetables and herbs and polish it off with some heavenly hunk chunks.

2:03:25 Whatever that is. This donation also goes out as a plea to the Noah Jenner Nation to help her husband Mikey to try to navigate and land back on his feet through this difficult time. His world has literally been flipped upside down. She was his light and his everything. Please consider donating to the best podcast in the universe. But also please consider donating to Jess's GoFundMe page from Mike. Please see links below to her obituary and the GoFundMe page. John C., I still hold the bottle of wine that she got for me for my 40th birthday based on your personal recommendation. She was very impressed by your prompt response.

That's the meetup report, though you heard the meetups earlier. There's a lot of meetups going on. This is if you want to be part of the community.

2:25:02 You're listening to the show you already are but believe me you go to one of these meetups you think you're weird Everybody's weird. No one will be like you know, every single person is different, but somehow we all fit together These meetups are good. They're a protection because connection is protection and you can find them at no agenda meetups.com If you can't find one near you start one yourself. It's easy at a party Sometimes you wanna go hang out with all the nights and days You wanna be where you won't be Triggered or held to blame You wanna be where everybody feels the same It's like a party Alright, I got the ISOs. I know one of mine is dynamite. One of them has to hit. One of them. Well, I would hope. Do you have any? I have two. Alright, can we hear yours first? I have fraud. Fraudulent claims of fraud.

2:26:00 Okay, classic. And tool. A tool for lazy preachers. Let's see. See if you like one of mine. I'm obsessed with this show. Come on, not bad, not bad. Or... Sensational, sensational! Or... Just a Trudeau! That's gotta be my favorite. It might be I can't understand what he said that's the opener of Houston Trudeau That's how they announced just all that one I'd like I didn't I don't care for that one. I like the other two both of them and the second one I think is the is the winner sensational sensational that one yeah, okay, I'll take it I

2:26:52 It's all good. It's all good people. It's all good. Well, let me see. There was... Well, before we go into anything serious... Oh, please. I'm behind in my TikTok catches. We need a jingle for this. And so I got a TikTok lady here. Bitch, she's beside herself not knowing quite what to do. And this is what she... People like this, I guess, obsess all day about things like this because I don't know. I don't know. I have no idea why anyone was obsessed so much that they're gonna put it out there for everyone at TikTok to listen to it. This is TikTok the gendered lady.

2:27:29 So I was just picking up my vehicle from an oil change and the person came out of the garage and said what can I do for you young lady? And I know that this was intended to be a greeting of respect and kindness or politeness maybe but I had this immediate like okay young maybe comparatively I'll take it but I was like lady. What do I do with that? Like It's so complicated because I know this person only intended kindness. There was a smile on their face. Like I know that they weren't trying to like patronize me or gender me, but I felt so gendered and so inappropriately gendered and I don't know what to do with that. Like what do you do with that when someone like has the best of intentions and I don't really want to spend all of my spoons trying to educate someone at the Costco car center. Wait a minute. So she was misgendered?

2:28:16 No. She was just gendered. She was gendered. She didn't want to be gendered at all. Right. Oh, this is one of these, these, or those women, I've learned that from you, this is one of those women who, who when you, if you hold the door open like, well, I can do it myself. Yeah, exactly. Same, same person. And sounds like that too. I can do myself. Thank you. I'm like that. She's a sweetheart. Yeah here in the south we have right here in the south We we hold the door open for the for the for the dames for you probably move the chair for him open the door in the car if a woman stands up at the table I stand up if she comes back I stand up and this lady would read that My creep I'm nothing but a creep and that was very light-hearted. Thank you for catching us up on the latest nut jobbery

2:29:09 I did want to mention, and now none of these are playable, but I put them in the show notes, there's now two Turkish politicians, the most recent one is the head of the Ministry of Interior of Turkey, after the earthquake and this is what the head of the ministry said, I have a translation. There are no coincidences and we told the American ambassador that. A week ago we did not agree with the increase in the number of NATO members and a week later we had a catastrophic earthquake. We know who did it and how. Get your dirty paws off Turkey. We will draw our own conclusions. And with that several mentions of, and this I think is true,

2:29:55 that the Turkey earthquake does not appear to have an epicenter, which is interesting. Well, even if it had an earthquake machine, as you will contend, doesn't an earthquake have an epicenter like the one in Japan had a very distinctive epicenter where the machine was? Right. No, the machine... No, it was a bomb that went off off the coast. It started the tsunami. We all know that. That wasn't the earthquake machine. That was an underwater explosion. I'm just trying to change history. You're trying to change your own history. Yes. Wasn't there an epicenter of the Haiti earthquake? Yes, that's why it's weird that this one didn't have an epicenter, but also ripped all along, like a huge tear in the earth. This is what the politicians are saying. It's not me anymore. I'm not alone. They're saying it. Meanwhile, what you didn't hear

2:31:05 in the region because it also hit Syria although it was northwestern Syria. We seem to be killing people all over the place. A leader of the ISIS terrorist network in Syria is dead. but at the price of four wounded Americans. An explosion during the raid also resulted in four US troops and one of the working dogs suffering some injuries. US special operations forces went in by helicopter and surrounded a nondescript house in northeastern Syria. But as they closed in on their target, an explosion, either a suicide vest or a hand grenade, went off. The troops and the working dog are in stable condition. It is a constant threat. In 2019, when commandos raided the Syrian compound of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, he blew up himself and three children to avoid capture.

2:31:58 Last year, Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi, another leader of ISIS, set off a booby trap that leveled the third floor of his house, killing himself, his wife and two children. This time the target was Hamza al-Hamzi. And this time he apparently waited for the Americans to get close enough. He was overseeing the group's deadly terrorist network in eastern Syria before he was killed in the raid. There are about 900 American troops in Syria working with local Syrian forces to keep the ISIS terrorist network from staging a comeback. It's a deadly game of hide and seek. But no American troops were killed or wounded in all of last year. This is not in the news.

2:32:44 It's really weird. We're just killing people. And what is the threat there? Why are we doing this? Any ideas, Buehler? I don't even know that story. No, but this is brand new. This just came out. That's my point. This is kind of nuts. We're just killing people everywhere. So I've got two epicenters for the first two Turkish earthquakes. Yes, there was two. The second one was apparently even worse. Well, the first one was in Giziantep, was the epicenter. And the second one was in, you know, I scrolled it off, but the second one has a definite center to it. This is bullcrap. There was no epicenter. I'm just telling what the politicians are saying. Well, those guys, they hate us. Well, yeah, with good reason.

2:33:35 We've been doing it everywhere around the world. Take Fukushima, you just said it yourself. You know, they should take, I have a Turkish clip to show you how many buildings were destroyed. They should take aim at their own politicians who didn't enforce building codes, which were, I guess, since they have so many earthquakes there, whether it's an earthquake machine or not. They do have quite a lot. If you look at the list, but this is the biggest, was it? Up to 45,000 dead, they estimate. But listen to this clip. Turkey's interior minister said today that over 80,000 buildings in his name. That's the same guy The same guy. Turkey's interior minister said today that over 80,000 buildings in his nation were either destroyed or have become uninhabitable after last week's quake. The situation across the border in Syria is dire for the millions left homeless, so many of whom already suffered greatly through nearly 12 years of war. Supplying shelter and aid is a prime focus there now. But remarkably, people are still being pulled from the rubble after a week and a half.

2:34:39 That is remarkable, especially the things that are happening. Yeah, it is. Every time there's something like that, there's always some guy. They're a month living on his fingernails. It's horrible. Well, what we need is we need a rescue of a child, you know, the one that's been trapped for weeks. That's what the international because the press is not really doing much with this story. That's also weird I mean, it's such a the scale of the devastation just outside of the earthquake machine stuff but the scale of the of the devastation is is almost unimaginable and But there's just nothing. The satellite pictures and some of the other photos of the cracks are actually like real, because they go right through highways and they divide the highway by, you know, it's not like a hundred yards, but it's like they're just, it's not even in the same county. The highway ends, there's a big hole in the earth and the other highway is way over there somewhere. It's quite amazing.

2:35:38 Let's stay in, well not quite the region, but in sandy areas. The new trifecta is, the new triple threat is Russia, China, Iran, and it looks like we're up to our tricks in Iran. France 24 had this lady on And she, I think she works for a university, but she's very distinct kind of look. You know, like French with the big fro hair, just very distinct.

2:36:14 I would say she might even be a spook, but just listen to this report as we move into a familiar territory to our spooks in Iran. I'm joined now on set by Chawra Makarimi from the University of Montreal. Thank you for joining us here today. You are an expert in Iran and notably wrote the book about the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Okay, spook. I'd like to ask you first of all Is this movement losing its momentum a little bit? We've heard less about it certainly outside Iran in recent weeks.

2:36:50 It's it entered another phase. Actually, what we heard about were the insurrectional the insurrections of fall 22. So it was the first stage and it was very vivid in the streets. And it was breaking a lot of red lines, a lot of political boundaries that were set for the last 40 years. That was very impressive. And what we see now is and a political organization of the Iranian society in order to kind of carry on another phase of that confrontation with the state, with political demands. So we have seen opposition leader like Green Movement leader Mirosan Musavi, who's in house arrest for 13 years now,

2:37:37 And he has written a letter saying that no change is possible in Iran within the frame of the theocracy. So he demands a regime change as well. And this is the first time, you know, this is very new because for the last 13 years he hasn't done that. for demands, asking for change, you know, for separation of church and the state, for equal pay for women and men. So we are very much into the women life freedom movement yet. For the release and conditional release of all political prisoners

2:38:27 Many political prisoners have been released and when they were released, the women political prisoners released, they photographed themselves outside of the prison without the hijab. So it shows that we are released but we are not going to, you know, stand aside. We are pursuing the fight. So I think that it's changing forms. Regime change on deck. Looks like my DeSantis clip was bad. No, this was no this... Your DeSantis clip really sucked. This at least shows this is regime change. There's some woman that lives in Montreal. She doesn't know what's going on. She's a spook for Canada. Regime change on deck. Okay, I'm saying no. Okay. I think this was just another test like the Green Revolution or whatever that one purple, I don't remember the color.

2:39:16 That they tried what some during the Obama administration. This is another another shot at it, and I think they already yeah, but it's over No that no she said it's the next phase well You want to put you got you got a dead pool money wait when? After they do their nuclear test. Oh if they do a nuclear test. It's coming up. Yeah, they're not gonna do it, okay? They do that. That's a huge mistake I'm gonna stay in the sandy areas This is part of the Great Reset. This could be your country. A Beirut bank burns. Several dozen people in Lebanon attacked banks on Thursday and blocked roads. They're protesting against the informal restrictions on cash withdrawals in place for years of financial crisis that prevent Lebanese from getting their hands on their own savings. The crisis has slashed the value of the Lebanese pound by more than 98% since 2019. Protester Rami Randour says everyone should be up in arms.

2:40:19 What are you Lebanese people waiting for to go down and take your rights from this mafia of thieves that's ruling? Where are the human rights? There is no electricity, no water, nothing at all in this country. Don't they feel us while they're sitting in their palaces? They have no feelings for the people. They see us as sheep. We won't stay silent about our life's worth." At least six banks were targeted as the currency hit a new record low value on Thursday. That's according to depositors' outcry, a lobby representing people with money stuck in the banks.

2:40:56 Depositors lacking cash to pay for basics, food, bills, even health care, are seeking access to their funds through lawsuits. Or sometimes by force. People trying to take out their own money have staged hold-ups. The Lebanese pound was changing hands at around 80,000 pounds to the dollar on Thursday, dropping from 70,000 pounds just two days earlier. Devalued their money by 98%. Yeah, so if you have $100,000 in the bank, it's worth $2,000. You know, there's a guy named Saif... That's not good. There's a guy named Saif Adin Amous who moved from Lebanon. He's now in Austin. And

2:41:39 And he says he was so lucky because he put most of his money into Bitcoin. I mean, in this case, Bitcoin would have fixed that, which I think is pretty brilliant. He could have put it in American treasuries too. That would have saved his ass. Well, it depends how long he had the Bitcoin. American treasuries probably... What if you bought the Bitcoin at $60,000? You still have $30,000 left over, better than $2,000. Yeah, I was anything's better than 2000 but American Treasuries would have made some money on the deal. Hmm. Okay. Well, I'm sure that's what everyone wanted to do. I love people burning down the bank thinking their money's actually in there. That's the funniest part. Yeah, we're trying to hold it up. That's a wives tale. His money's in the bank. Did you know that the US banks

2:42:35 Ever since COVID, they don't have to have any, they don't have to have 10% reserve. There's a zero reserve policy still. They never released that. It's kind of scary. Well, you know, as you get your money out of these local banks, I know at Mechanics, I was seeing somebody trying to get their money out, but they told me you had to fill out some paperwork. Oh, yeah. More than 10 grand. And then you have to wait 24 hours so they deliver the money. What? Because there's no money there. I know. This is the worst. And we have a local bank here. community bank, which is great, and that's where we keep our money, but all their services are outsourced to some, you know, tech firm. You gotta wonder, gotta wonder how it all works. It doesn't. This is microservices architecture taken to an extreme. Yeah. Yeah, if you, if you fuck up, so you screw up your password, you know, you can't talk to them during the weekend. No, you can't. This whole, this was a nightmare. It is. It is.

2:43:38 So there was a big deal about this Israeli firm that apparently is disinformation for hire for elections. You hear this story? I like it. Next, interference in over 30 elections worldwide. An investigation by the Paris-based group of journalists called Forbidden Stories has shone a spotlight on Team Jorge, the 50-year-old Israeli driving these nefarious activities. While Richard joins us in the studio, he's part of the team at Forbidden Stories. Lauren, thank you very much for being with us. Who is the man who's allegedly behind all of this? Tell us about him.

2:44:15 So officially he only has a nickname Jorge and he made a lot of effort during all the investigation to hide his real name but at the end of the investigation after with the work of 100 reporters we finally found out who was the guy and his name is Tal Anan. And Tal Anan is a former Israeli soldier who is leading that very secret cell unit of the Israeli army. in charge of producing disinformation for higher services. So it's a business that is kind of expensive. When the people from our team, from Radio France and the IRETS were infiltrating in an undercover investigation this company, he was asking them to pay six million euros to influence an election in Africa. Six million? Who's paying that kind of money then?

2:45:14 The kind of people who might have six million to pay for that might be state actors or big private companies as well. It depends. There is a different level of services they can provide you. During the infiltration, they were able to show how, for instance, in Kenya, they were able to hacked the telegram account of three advisors of the current president. And in real life they were doing that. So what is very concerning with our findings in this investigation is how two kind of industry met each other. The industry of the cyber surveillance on one hand and on the other hand the industry of the influence.

2:46:01 What I find most interesting about this story is this group of journalists, the Forbidden Stories group, a Paris-based non-profit that coordinates investigations with 150 reporters, more than 60 news organizations worldwide, including the Washington Post, The Guardian, and Le Monde. I don't know if it what do you think that is this? Well, what bothers me is the Washington Post yes and the Guardian Guardian to write off the bat right off the bat right off the top and Lamond I think is a left-leaning operation too, so I'm not impressed by that I don't like this this this not this partisan approach to news covering

2:46:49 Yeah, Laurent Richard, that's the guy. Oh, he's an award-winning investigative journalist, documentary filmmaker, founder of Forbidden Stories. Anyway, they did a whole under... almost like a Project Veritas undercover video. I wonder... I gotta wonder if the guy actually did anything or if this was more a sales job for him. Clearly, he's not being arrested or anything. He's not being perp walked anywhere. So how good was it? You know what I mean? Do you have anything on Ohio? Because everyone's all object about Ohio. No, I skipped Ohio because I didn't see anything that was new. The main thing I need to discuss with you is this Ohio governor Mike DeWine? Yeah, they hate him. Tell me that guy isn't a dead ringer for George Burns.

2:47:37 George Burns? Yeah, the comedian. I don't see the... I didn't see the George Burns. I'd have to look at his picture. Go to the Wikipedia page. George Burns had huge ears. Always had a funny smile on his face. Look at DeWine. Look at DeWine. I'm gonna look at DeWine and see if he's... He's a young George Burns. He's got pretty big ears. He's got some saucers there. Is it Mike DeWine? Mike D. Wine. Mike D. Wine. Yeah, I mean he looks more like George Burns in the videos. Yeah, yeah, I see it. Okay. It's the straight shot that makes him look like Burns. His side view, no. No, it's just a straight up shot with him smiling. It looks like George Burns.

2:48:20 So what I love most about, and we got a lot of boots on the ground, people nearby, people saying, well, it seems like there's a lot of stuff being exaggerated. Certainly a lot of people saying, oh yeah, I got dead everything around here. There's not really a lot of evidence. There's not a lot of coverage to begin with. So I'm sure the only exaggerated stuff is the only time where you can get any news. What I find kind of, this whole thing was, as far as I'm concerned, was political football from the get-go and you know now Trump is like I'm gonna go see the people over there which is a political move he's running for president. I think it's foolish I think it's dumb. I agree I think it's a dumb idea. It's like the anchors of NBC CBS and you know going to some place what do they need to be there for they're just getting in the way. Yeah. And then we had this little situation with Tucker

2:49:13 So there's something going on in one of the Kentucky churches or at some college? Hold on a second, hold on. Why don't you stay with Ohio for a second? You're running right by it. You're running right by it. I have a couple of things to discuss. Okay. Just want to give you all the conspiracy theories. This is a town of 4,700 people. So it turns out that perhaps they wanted to put a high-speed rail through this very town. That's one. It's all Trump's fault according to Buddha judge. So there's always Trump's there's your political edge the people of East Palestine and why is it Palestine and not Palestine? You know you spell it the same way this way they pronounce it There's like there's a couple towns around here. They're pronounced not like they're written. Okay, it's like Rodeo Drive. Oh

2:49:59 because here would be a good example. It looks like the people of East Palestine were put into a medical test, what do you call it, they were rolling out medical device sensors and they were the test market, it's always a good one, see if you you know, to see if you ingested something or if you become sick somehow. Yeah, the MyID Medical Service, there you go. I like the Amtrak 2035 map the best because that shows Amtrak with high-speed rail going straight through this town. So of course we had to blow it all up. And then, but in general, I sent you an article. I know you don't like where it came from, but it seems like

2:50:52 the actual contamination of the environment may, that may be a bit overblown because that's the part that I'm just questioning. It's not great to have this happen but it does happen a lot with these types of all kinds of chemicals. You're the chemical expert so what is your view on the vinyl chloride? How much is it parts per million is in there? What do you think is the actual risk to the residents? I wouldn't live there with that big mushroom cloud and all that vinyl chloride. That stuff is nasty. So those guys can downplay that if they want, but just look at the... just look at it. What a mess. Is that cloud still there?

2:51:31 Now the clouds gone but the mess that's left over is ridiculous and it just had to be a lot. They put it in a bunch of ditches and lit it off, it was seeping into the ground. It's terrible. I wouldn't, the downplay of that mess by anybody because oh well this is bullshit, it's only vinyl chloride so what? It's not, I'm not listening to that. Okay, which is why I asked you. So I think it's just at this point it's just a political football. No one really cares about the people, that's obvious. And the reason why no one sprang into action is because it happens three times a day.

2:52:07 This stuff happens all the time. We do have... Well, not with tanks of vinyl chloride, it doesn't. No, but derailments happen. Yeah, there's over a thousand a year. So, one email from boots on the ground from one of our producers who has standing, he says, you know, all mainline tracks have hotbox detectors, HBDs. Intrac safety device that checks axle wheel temperatures. Says I've never been to Ohio, but I did check everything and it seems like they have a HBD about 20 miles from the crash site near Salem, Ohio. The train should have had its temperature checked and received a hot wheel alarm. And what he's questioning is kind of where we started with that this seems to be just a railroad failure. You know, not enough people on these trains. They actually want to do away with cabooses.

2:52:57 You've been following this? They want to get rid of cabooses? Gonna get rid of them? I haven't seen a caboose in 25 years and I'm right by a rail. Then what, I don't know, why is that, why are they making a big deal of that? This is, it's all political, everything. And then all of these cars have pop-off valves and our expert boots on the ground says, yeah, vinyl chloride is deadly. I said, but of the five different choices they could have made on how to handle this, they kind of took the worst one. The one you want to try first is try and keep the tanks cool and hope that the pop-off valves work, because then they wouldn't have had to blow it up. So the blowing up thing is kind of the red flag here. Well, we had the clip from the last show of the hazmat guy saying that they were keeping them cool with the hoses.

2:53:50 And they could have just kept doing that. They did do that. And then they pulled the hoses off to blow them up. So here's a quick boots on the ground. I live five miles out from ground zero. Just want to give you boots on the ground. What's happening here? Nothing accurate has come out since this started. Norfolk got their train track fixed, left town claiming threats on their life was made. That's why they didn't show up for the town hall. Unofficially, the reason the emergency order was lifted before testing was that the trains couldn't pass through town while there was a state of emergency still in effect. From what I see, there isn't much as much death as reported. For one, the chickens, the dead chickens are about 15 miles away from the crash, while mine in the same path, five miles away, are happy as can be. And if you saw how scratched up the woman making the claim was, you'd believe the local lore that she is definitely chalked, that she definitely chalked those. What do you mean chalked? What is chalking the chickens? I don't know. Chalked? No, it says chalked. No dogs have died as of yet, no cats.

2:54:53 And there should be, due to very bad feral cat issue in town, possibly three caged foxes. The fish were minnows. The stream that came from 10-15 foot wide, never deeper. So he's kind of downplaying all the disaster, but yeah, I'm sure producer Joe, you know, like you, doesn't really want to be in that situation. And everything else, I mean, you know, there's conspiracy theories about the five million gallons of water a day that the Intel fab apparently nearby needs. Have you heard of this? I mean, this is just a lot. No, this is completely news to me. Yeah. So there's, you know, they need to bypass the Ohio River and cut these people off. I guess we'll just see what plays out. There's enough conspiracy theories.

2:55:39 But to me, everything here now is just political. And Trump is, I agree, I think he's making a bad move. Bad move going there. He should have just gone there. Just popped up. That would have made sense. Pre-announcing it? Wrong, wrong decision. Yeah, I agree. I think if he had just showed up like a couple of days ago, just showed up and with a team of investigators saying, you know, nobody seems to be doing this properly, I've got some of my own people, and then left, I think that would have been kind of cool, but no. Anyway, he's losing it. I wish there was some really good information. There really isn't. There really isn't.

2:56:21 Yeah, but a lot of a lot of talk, you know, just a lot of talk which is probably why you and I just there's not a lot to deconstruct There's no media really the media attention except and whenever Aaron Brockowitz shows up. I'm always suspicious. Yeah That you mentioned and I agree with that doesn't somebody like that shows up. I'd get suspicious, too I only have maybe one clip left. Okay, let's do that. I But I have to, there's a number of them. I mean I could do the NFL Vax News which I thought was interesting but I'm not completely in on it. Oakland has a ransomware attack going on which is funny, it's still a continuity. The city of Oakland?

2:56:58 Yeah, okay, but it's not that entertaining I think that I think the I also have some set follow up on that chat bot stuff Which I didn't realize that that that ruse guy you were talking about Kevin ruse. Yeah. Oh my god Well, how lame can you get told you? Well, I know I heard it and then I heard this other report and I said wait a minute You could have pounded that home harder New oh, yeah, here we go. Here's a double is a new overdose drug found in San Francisco Just listen to these numbers uplifting way to leave the show in San Francisco authorities say traces of a deadly drug called xylosine is Being found in the bodies of people who died from an overdose the street name for the drug is tranq It's an animal tranquilizer being added to illicit street opioids mainly fentanyl

2:57:48 The tranquilizer is known to cause severe skin lesions. It can leave users with open wounds, lead to infections and even amputations. Trace amounts of it were found in four out of 145 bodies tested between December 1st of last year and the middle of last month. All of the overdoses involved fentanyl. San Francisco health officials say it's the first time the drug has been identified in overdose deaths in the city. Wow. So 140 plus deaths in 90 days is what he described. You didn't put the second half of that in there. So that's how many dead... There's 140 dead bodies laying around San Francisco just constantly because of this fentanyl situation. They don't care. They're not gonna do anything about the fentanyl crisis in the city. Free needles.

2:58:37 It's pathetic and now we got this new, I think they're trying to kill the homeless. Well on that tip, I had this in the show notes for the last show, Middle X, you've not heard of this, Middle X, this is now being, it's according to Exit International, oh yeah, there's a group called Exit International which is basically about killing yourself, euthanasia. And so this is a quite big story in the Netherlands and they were eyewitnesses to people committing euthanasia with middle X. Now they won't publish what it is, but they're saying, in fact there's a Wikipedia page here, M-I-D-D-E-L. It's something that comes from the chemical industry.

2:59:32 And people are using it to kill themselves. But no one knows exactly what it is. The newspapers are trying to figure it out or they're not publishing it because they don't want more people to use it. And even though Middle X is Dutch, because it means, middle means compound I guess, or something, yeah, compound. They're not translating it, just calling it Middle X. And apparently all your cells just stop accepting oxygen and you just shut down and die. Yeah. And it seems like there's a promotion of this going on. That whole thing sounds like a promotion. I don't like it. On that upbeat note, with big pharma killing us, because they are,

3:00:25 We're going to leave you with a couple of end of show mixes. We got some good ones. We got Brain... see... Brain Data here. We got I Am Robert Zolnicki. We got Tom Starkweather, Rolando Gonzalez, Sir Michael Anthony, and Sound Guy Steve. Yeah, we got a good five minutes here, but they're all short and dynamite. Coming up next on NoAgendaStream.com, we have the Intergalactic Boombox! Episode number 88, short and sweet, you'll like it a lot. And we love the intergalactic bloom box. Coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region number 6 in the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where I remain.

3:01:12 Who do you remain? I'm Genesee Dvorak. Okay, just checking. Please remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA. We'll see you on Thursday everybody. Until then, remember, brush your teeth, adios mofos, a hooey hooey, and such. data.

3:02:22 I am chatbot. You can question me, even though I don't know my ABCs. Ask me anything and I will make you believe. Need an essay? Book report. A summary for the Supreme Court. And if I'm wrong, I won't feel bad to take the blame. You want my advice? Just know I am programmed for what to say. I may sound precise. It is just like what you hear daily on your TV. Now I should tell you, I might lie to you. I could be wrong. You are convincible. I am chatbot.

3:03:16 This is disgust. A lot of people in here who have absolutely no reason to be lying. You know, Ron, lots of assurances, but residents there just don't seem to trust what they're being told. We've gone into hundreds and hundreds of people's houses to test that air. It's good. We're not getting any numbers about are you even testing for benzene? What are the levels at or not? A section of sulfur run. that is very near the crash site remains severely contaminated. We knew this. We know this. Since the fire went out, EPA air monitoring has not detected any levels of health concern in the community that are attributed to the train derailment. We continue to monitor the air.

3:04:03 The air is good. The governor said again today that the water is safe to drink even though some people have been questioning the test results. Are you confident enough, sir, that you yourself would drink it? Absolutely. If I was there right now, I would drink it. Would you stay here? Would you drink that water? The water we have tested comes back good. It has been two weeks since a train derailed and caught fire in East Palestine. Tonight, residents there say they are really worried about the aftermath of the chemicals that spilled and were released. As of today, based on the facts that are there today, FEMA can't do anything. The giant Chinese balloon that had been floating across parts of the United States has been shot down by an American fighter jet.

3:04:49 Talk about the catch of the day. It's the Chinese spy balloon found by the U.S. Navy. We are just getting pictures of the Chinese spy balloon shot down off the coast of South Carolina. The Pentagon is revealing new information tonight about the spy balloon now believed to be part of an extensive Chinese surveillance operation. The Pentagon believes another Chinese surveillance balloon is now flying over the U.S. We have eyes on the balloon's falling. This is an insult to tell the people of Montana we couldn't have shot it down over Montana. Republican Congressman Mike Gallagher says it should have been shot down before it reached the U.S. I gave the order to take down these three objects. Debris from the shoot-down lies scattered across seven miles. They can get more information through the debris that they are recovering right now.

3:05:36 I make no apologies for taking down that balloon. It's the first time an aircraft has been shot down over U.S. territory since World War II. Our intelligence communities are reporting to me daily and will continue their urgent efforts to do so, and I will communicate that to the Congress. Hundreds on the ground watched the Top Gun drama unfold. Nothing right now suggests they were related to China's spy balloon program or that they were surveillance vehicles from any other country. Hey, it's Dr. Tony Fauci. You might've heard I'm getting into trouble over my new paper. Did yous ever think you'd see the day when I'm the one being fact-checked? I already told yous, if you question me, you're questioning the science. And that is the worst thing you could do. Hey, so I said a couple of things different over time. Up until now, everyone just kind of went along with it, you know?

3:06:33 But now everyone's getting mad at me! When I lie to yous, you get mad. When I tell yous the truth, you get even madder! I tell yous I can't catch a break! When am I supposed to- You know what? You know what? No! From now on, Dr. Fauci says whatever Dr. Fauci wants to say! The leash is off, baby! Have fun fighting over this one, suckers! And you thought I was retired! International help is on the way. The nation in the brace is light over dark. Hope over fear, unity over justice, stability over chaos. A devil's deal, fighting in Ukraine for freedom and cash. So I give the order to take it down. It's time to go. 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth. Wow!

3:07:25 Wow! It definitely is a long race. And in Ukraine today, every air force pilot is a king. That's what's boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers and the rain bombs. We now have in place the toughest sanctions ever introduced by the European Union. All of this is on record. NATO is now warning Ukraine is using so much ammunition of all types, Western allies cannot provide it fast enough. Another unidentified object has been shot down over North American airspace. the sun really break off recently? We will track oligarchs trying to hide or to sell their assets to escape sanctions. Russia is assembling more troops as it prepares for a new military offensive tied to the war's one year anniversary. I think the end is just a question of time right now. It's a question of how many more people and Zelensky wants to kill of his own people. It's going to be over.

3:08:24 The best podcast in the universe!
