About this episode

President Joe Biden faces mounting scrutiny over his physical stability after tripping over a black sandbag at the U.S. Air Force Academy graduation in Colorado. While the White House cites spinal arthritis, alternative theories suggest the obstacle was intentionally placed by cadets.

I said that one big guy he's a big he's two seven foot tall 285 pound dude center dude it's a dude for the Denver team and he's really unbelievably talented And so I didn't think much about it until i was watching one of those trains cruising on the trains shows.

CHAPTER 02 / 51 Discussion

Belgrade Anti-Government Protests, Serbia Against Violence

Tens of thousands of protesters gathered in Belgrade for the "Serbia Against Violence" march following two mass shootings in May 2023. Demonstrators demanded the resignation of the Minister of Interior Affairs and the Chief of Intelligence Agency, citing a culture of violence promoted by the government and specific media outlets.

02:08 Weird way to tie the show together. It's all right I have these clips Oh, oh well now this is exciting you've got and these are a bit what's going on in Serbia Yeah There is a lot going on in Serbia that there's a lot going on and in within their it may be some reason within These three clips that did is is the possible genetic purpose of the tall giant people in Serbia No The whole conflict is Bosnia is pissed off that Serbia has got all the Giants Well, that's never mentioned but there is a couple of funny things in these clips. This is Serbia anti-government protest. Tens of thousands of people have joined another anti government protest in Serbia's capital Belgrade The demonstrations have become a weekly event since 18 people were killed in two mass shootings last month Protesters are blaming government policies for promoting violence in the media and are demanding the resignation of ministers

03:04 Arin Vršić has more from Belgrade. It's been one month since the mass shooting in Belgrade's Vladislav Ribnikar Elementary School, this is the fifth protest block called Serbia Against Violence On May 3rd a 13 year old boy shot dead 10 people 9 pupils of his school and security guard Only one day after, a 20-year old man shot eight people in two villages south of Belgrade. In both attacks many were injured. The protest walk in Belgrade started after speeches were given on the stage in front of National Assembly. Protesters repeated they want Minister of Interior Affairs and the Chief of Intelligence Agency to resign

03:42 They also want the regulatory body for electronic media to cut the concession rights for happy TV and pink television Terrestrial broadcast because they say it's their program that promotes violence and hate speech Wow, this is really interesting And I didn't clip it so I'm glad you got it because I only the only clip I got was about they want You know violence off television but now you have the actual the actual TV channels in this clip, but it's worth mentioning that Serbia and Bosnia have been heating up. We've been tracking it. It started with the mass shootings. I mean Serbia and Bosnia they're on deck now with this stuff! This is interesting

04:24 Well, what's interesting about these clips is it doesn't bring in the issue with Bosnia. No! Even though there are 700 NATO troops... There are two things going on one of these protests in Serbia mostly and Belgrade massive protests about violence. Yeah, which again brings us to the stories about violence in that I guess resolving problems with violence was always a major way of doing things in Serbia hence the tall big guys! You know you should be the spokesman for FOMA TV for more big guys... Hi hi I'm Joe I want my FOMA TV or my FTV so

CHAPTER 03 / 51 Discussion

Serbian Gun Amnesty, Media Regulation Demands

President Aleksandar Vucic initiated a one-month amnesty program resulting in the surrender of 40,000 firearms and 2 million rounds of ammunition. Protesters also targeted "Happy TV" and "Pink Television," alleging that reality programs like Big Brother promote a violent social climate that contributed to recent school tragedies.

serbia· aleksandar vucic· gun control· happy tv· pink television

05:10 The other action which is in Bosnia, and has to do with the elections is not this. This is different and this is kind of interesting because this isn't being reported on at all because it's not... I guess this is because... No, there's nothing in the US about this. In fact we'd like some of their happy TV stuff to be broadcast over here We don't have any of this violence on television People giving speeches on today stage were actors high school students comedians and satirical tv hosts They said that those in power, the government should assume its responsibility for the mass shootings they emphasized All Serbian children should walk freely to schools and return to their homes safely, as well those in Kosovo. With dignity we should fight for freedom of our society that is what we owe the people who lost their lives in tragic shooting they said. Marin Versic, Al Jazeera Belgrade Serbia's government has declared a one month amnesty for people to hand-in guns 40 thousand firearms have been given up

06:12 But as Bernard Smith now reports from Belgrade, protesters say the government needs to do much more to tackle a culture of violence. On Serbia's version of Big Brother, a daily diet of fights and punch-ups helps make this one of the country's top rated TV shows In Parliament, when debate doesn't work fists can fly. There is a huge problem in Serbia with violence being accepted as methods to resolve disputes that's the problem. Vanja is a lawyer for a group that helps women affected by violence 41% of Serbs think domestic abuse is the top issue women face here

06:52 the highest rate in Europe. This is something that even not even children from kindergarten are being taught to resolve disputes in other alternative measures and so the TV and what's happening at our National Assembly, the message is whoever uses violence he will be the one who is winning this dispute and will be you know the winner and that's the wrong message being sent all over again Wow, so not only are they giants but they're giant dicks. This is crazy And in fact that the number one TV show which was that big brother equivalent is for all practical purposes Just a version of bumfights you know where you get people just to punch each other It's just a violent show how we don't have quite bum now You know the bum fight phenomenon that we had for a while yeah But they're not calling for

07:49 guns to be taken away are they? Yeah. They are, aha! So I don't even though this seems to Well, part three will resolve a couple of these issues. In early May eight children and a guard were shot dead at a school in Belgrade the suspect is 13 years old prosecutors alleged the boy's father took him to target practice and didn't properly secure weapons The next day 20 year old man killed eight people in a village outside the capital Since then, thousands of people have protested weekly in Belgrade accusing the government of encouraging a culture of violence in society.

08:30 The problem of violence in Serbia is bigger than weapons that are in possession of citizens. That's why the citizens ask for other regulations, maybe tightening gun control legislation and fundamental reforms in education and other spheres. Serbia's president Aleksandar Vucic has pledged to practically disarm his country More than 40,000 weapons and 2 million rounds of ammunition have so far been handed in during a government amnesty. But there are more than 750,000 registered weapons here and officials estimate perhaps a similar number unlicensed It could take years for the state to disarm its citizens and they'd have to be willing partners in the effort Okay this is a sophisticated PSYOPT This is very good

09:24 because they're also calling for the removal of violent television stations, but it's really about disarming the country. This isn't an American Democrat Party tactic! Well they got their attention And this is super interesting to me because American political tactics and takedowns are now being performed all over Europe. So not just get rid of their guns so Serbia will be completely vulnerable to whatever is next, seeing as there's 700 NATO troops there for whatever reason but something we learned about in the last show

CHAPTER 04 / 51 Discussion

Marine Le Pen, Russian Collusion Report Fiasco

A French parliamentary commission report alleged ties and collusion between Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party and the Kremlin. Le Pen dismissed the findings as a "sectarian and dishonest" political maneuver, comparing the situation to the American Mueller report and denying that she serves as a mouthpiece for Vladimir Putin.

marine le pen· russia· vladimir putin· france· national rally party

10:07 Remember your buddy there from Ireland? She was moaning about Russian interference. Claire. Claire, right. Claire Daly? Well now we know what that was about and man it's just an American script! Speak to our international affairs commentator Douglas Herbert. Hello to you Doug. Several French media seeing some excerpts of this report is not published yet but what have we learned so far What we've learned is that the report essentially exposes, based on the interviews with dozens of people that you mentioned, exposes ties and collusion. Really let's use the word collusion between France's far right national rally party and Russia, Vladimir Putin. And was it only looking at the far right? No this was a parliamentary commission set up ironically setup at the request of Marine Le Pen's far-right national rally party

11:01 because it wanted to lay to rest once and for all the never-ending accusations that her party, and she specifically has been way too chummy. This is that nebbish on France 24? Yeah, nebbish is a good word for him yeah douchebag Doug the bald guy Any collusion? I love this! With Vladimir Putin... Vladimir Putin's line What's up with that pronunciation Vladimir Putin, have you been in France too long Doug? Vladimir Putin has towed Vladimir Putin's line. Has represented essentially the interests of Vladimir Putin and has conveyed his message very effectively here in France The Kremlin's propaganda message So that was what it really meant to do It boomeranged, it really backfired a fiasco in her own face

11:51 A fiasco in her own face. Wow! It's a fiasco in your face? Get some of that fiasco off your face, babe. BOOTED!!! I order you right now to take that fiasco off your face. Disgusting can't look at it this is this is crazy I love saying that. That's what all the millennials are now saying, the new 100% is this is crazy! No, I haven't heard it Well, I just launched it Here's Marie Le Pen Far right colluding with Russia She's propagandizing for Vladimir Putin Here's Marine Le Pen claiming that the report is politically motivated

12:31 This report is a reflection of the rapporteur. It's sectarian, dishonest and totally politicized. The reality of this report is that there is nothing. This report is exactly the same in terms of its conclusions as the four hours of hearings I was able to do under oath. In other words, the people who have accused us have no basis, in fact." This is their version of the Mueller report. Russian collusion! Does anyone else not see this? It's pathetic! It is pathetic, that's the best word for it. Come on people come up with something

CHAPTER 05 / 51 Discussion

Joe Biden Sandbag Fall, Air Force Academy Graduation

President Joe Biden tripped over a black sandbag on stage during the U.S. Air Force Academy graduation ceremony in Colorado. While the White House attributed the fall to the sandbag and the President's spinal arthritis, alternative theories suggest the object may have been placed as a form of sabotage by cadets.

joe biden· air force academy· colorado· sandbag· spinal arthritis

13:18 more creative. Meanwhile, we need to discuss this tumble... The White House says President Biden is fine after he took a fall on stage at the US Air Force Academy graduation ceremony in Colorado. Biden had delivered the commencement address and shook hands with graduates when he appeared to have tripped on a black sandbag on the stage. Biden got back up and joked, He got sandbagged! Now I went and looked- Got hairy legs It got sandbagged. Actually, here's an ABC report where he yells it out- The White House says President Biden is fine after he tripped and fell over a sandbag at the US Air Force Academy in Colorado. The president returned to Washington greeted by a horde of reporters wanting to know what happened. And his explanation was quite simple. I've got sandbags! The president was walking a bit stiffly but his doctors say that's because he has spinal arthritis

14:16 So I looked at, I look for a picture. Ooh! Spinal... You have a new, uh, on notice spinal arthritis Doesn't sound good actually. Spinal arthritis? Know nothing about it but i do know something about staging this sandbag was placed as sabotage There's no reason, I'm looking at the stage there is a black sandbag you know one of those sandbags that you put on... Oh and it's black so he can't see it? Yep! On a black stage and its a black, it's one of those that you put over uh, you know light stand so it doesn't fall over. Yeah so yeah, I know what they're for. We call them sand bags but just people who don't, who aren't in the business. They are sand bags People like you or me, people aren't in the business like us, in the biz. Oh the biz In the biz

15:03 I read the trades. I've been reading the trades myself it's not holding anything down, it's just there! It's not on top of anything, it's not even holding down like a skirt for a table...it's just a black sandbag on a black stage this was sabotage you know? You know I can accept that and there's something that is in my mind When he came around to walk off and hit the sandbag, there was a soldier, a Marine that was saluting. And he was saluting toward the audience and I guess he saluted towards Biden flipped around and then he went off toward the audience walked toward the camera and i looked at him and it was like when Biden went down he didn't look back

15:55 It was right within, you know... He would have looked back or something and he had a funny smirk on his face. I think that's the guy! That's the guy and it's cadets so you knew about it You know this is graduation So what's funnier than when you're graduating from a military academy? Hey man, I got an idea. We'll be legends. I think sandbag gate is appropriate. I think there should be parliamentary inquiries Listen, Bill. I put the picture of the sandbag... He did go down in an awkward way and then no I like the way the news media describes it but then he got right up! He didn't get out! He had four guys helping him up and he could barely get up you know if they had just left him there i guarantee couldn't get up Did you also notice the soles of his shoes?

CHAPTER 06 / 51 Discussion

Presidential Footwear, Biden Mask Conspiracy Theories

Speculation regarding President Biden's physical stability includes observations of specialized horseshoe-shaped soles on his shoes, drawing comparisons to Michael Jackson's gravity-defying stage footwear. The discussion extends to long-standing conspiracy theories involving high-tech CIA masks and body doubles being used to portray the President.

joe biden· michael jackson· cia· masks· mission impossible

16:50 No, I did not. So it's this weird horseshoe-like extra sole that is on the bottom of it... A lift? Well, it's a lift but its U shape and someone pointed out an interesting thing which was probably not what was going on but I liked it You know when Michael Jackson in that video where he kind of leans over and defies gravity you know he leans forward all the way yeah it was one of his signature moves. So that was achieved by having shoes with basically a horseshoe type heel and in the stage itself was a little knob and he'd slide his

17:34 his shoes onto those knobs and then he can just lean forward because the knobs were bolted to the floor. And he could just back up and be right off of that I'm wondering if maybe the president doesn't have knobs in the stage everywhere so that you know when he's feeling... So he'd have a little wool on his ass, just standing there? Yeah! He feels a little woozy, he can just slip into the knobs It was just... Well now you're talking. Well I'm reminded of not this newsletter that i just sent out, but the one before that and the other ones that are floating around these memes showing Biden's face kind of cut in half with two different Bidens Oh yeah well it's a mask everyone knows it's a mask

18:14 Where you been? Everyone knows that's no I would just do a lot of math. No, I saw the mask It was peeling off on one of them They showed like where it was peeling off on him and it was too smooth for his normal face Yeah, and then he had the permanent wrinkles in this forehead There's a lot of crazy My might be dead. Well there's a beginning of the show. We go by Mike I'm with you on that and we know this mass technology is is outstanding and it's way beyond what the CIA lady showed five years ago. It's way beyond that, but she mentioned that the masks they were talking about in using in the TV show Mission Impossible which was I believe the late 60s? Yep She says those masks those CIA masks were in play back then so you can't even imagine what technology they have now

19:11 I actually can't imagine it and if you look at all of these different videos where you see a crease or you see Biden from behind scratching the back of his neck and then you almost see the rubber kind of reform. We're being psyoped man, it's a scam! It's a scam! This guy is no Joe Biden Who knows who he is? Now finally I'm very happy to report After two years out here in Fredericksburg, Texas Tina and I are finally we've made it in. We are now in Hill Country High Society. Together two years! Time flies. Yeah time's flies? Times fly.

CHAPTER 07 / 51 Discussion

Fredericksburg High Society, Hill Country Elites

An account of a social gathering in Fredericksburg, Texas, describes the local "Hill Country High Society" consisting of wealthy business owners, including an IHOP franchise mogul. The event featured affluent Trump supporters, women carrying designer-dipped concealed firearms, and a notable shift away from Anheuser-Busch products.

They make it run! The salt of the... this.. What do you mean?? Salt of the Earth to me is a guy who's digging a ditch, you know for minimum wage. No no! He's working for his family and he has three kids... No these are the- He's the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet that's the salt of the earth That's some mogul You're wrong, they're not moguls They're just regular old people Running 11 restaurants is not easy. But Adam, this happens to the best of people you get sucked in they bring you in your next thing You know you're an elite local elite And then you're oblivious that the reality of them above them of the working poor Well these are the people who employ the working poor because they come from being poor and this is where...

The women at this party all carry concealed guns, some of them dipped in the Louis Vuitton design they've got elephant skin boots This is the party they don't drive the F-152 no it's time to break out the bends and they definitely don't drink Anheuser Busch beer anymore.

And you know who was there as a part of the Hill Country High Society? DeSantis? No! Our friend Suzanne Santos remember Suzanne Santos

Nick Pizzolatto, WGA Strike Force Majeure

True Detective creator Nick Pizzolatto and his wife, Suzanne Santo, provided insights into the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike. The discussion highlights a "force majeure" clause in contracts that may allow streamers to exit expensive deals if the strike continues into July, potentially disadvantaging the writers.

nick pizzolatto· suzanne santo· true detective· wga strike· writers guild of america

22:50 I don't remember Susanne Santos. She's actress and singer-songwriter she was on Joe Rogan talking about how much she loved Noah Jenday you should know her! Oh, oh is that? I keep forgetting her name yeah i know who it is Susanne Santos and she was there by the way five months pregnant looking good for her yes looking very Santo not Santos I'm sorry There we go, now you get that blister.

23:43 Do you know Nick? You should know Nick Pizzolatto because we're in the business. You read The Trades, uh-huh! See, you haven't been keeping up with The Trades Well I have been keeping it but i haven't been keeping up with Nick Nick is very famous for not just being the writer but the creator and the showrunner of the hit HBO series True Detective You know this show, right? True Detective. Yeah! It's weird... His first season was Dynamite Was he the showrunner then? Yes! He created a showrunner- Well then what happened?! No! Two more seasons came! Yeah but the second season was boring by comparison Okay okay my friends here alright these are my friends chill out Okay I'm just saying Breaks Pomp Dvorak That's the show with The finale broke the internet At least it broke the HBO app

24:35 Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson starred in anyway. So I got a rare... he's a writer and so I had an opportunity to talk to him about the writer strike Ah, there it is. Finally you get to the point after all this name dropping that you feel obliged which I accept because I understand now what happened You better... After every show you're always like hey got any dinners coming up with anybody? Oh that's too bad. I don't do anything! That's all that you... You're always like... Hey man... Oh throwing it at me Any cool dinners? Anything happening? Uh-huh All right So first of all

25:16 It is... so the writers strike. He's a writer, so obviously his projects were on hold however it appears there is a force majeure clause in the Writers Guild of America contracts this is what we were not aware of And it's confirmed, I have an article here from the New York Times. If the strike drags on into July studios can exit pricey deals with writers under force majeure clauses of contracts which means it will actually help the streamers and screw the complaining writers

26:03 And he will go back to work because you cannot, the guilds can't stop writers from going back to work or they will have to go back on the terms of them. So this is like a union busting thing going on here? Totally! But it was built into it. They got suckered somewhere along the line... Of course they did! Let's get us back up a couple of sentences and of course they did their dumb writers Well, turns out 97% of the voting members of the WGA maybe wrote a treatment for someone. They're not successful writers. Yeah well that's most writers Yes correct except for my friend Nick

26:50 Nick yeah, that guy's a winner. He's a winner and some more news married to a famous pregnant actress who Suzanne Santo dropped the s for extra savings and Here's the good news If that was if it wasn't good news already for people who want to write then people just want to get back to making stuff The studios are bringing in writers to fix the woke scripts. Even Marvel is bringing in writers to fix all the woke scripts that are not working, not making money they're afraid to do it now I think we're seeing the end in sight especially if Marvel... What an optimist! This was what happens when you become an elite

CHAPTER 09 / 51 Discussion

Elon Musk, Twitter Infrastructure Costs, Murdoch Alliance

Elon Musk's management of Twitter involves significant infrastructure costs, including $500 million annual contracts with AWS and Google. Analysis suggests Musk is aligning with Rupert Murdoch to support Ron DeSantis's presidential bid, potentially using Twitter as a platform for anti-woke branding while seeking future government banking licenses.

elon musk· twitter· rupert murdoch· ron desantis· tucker carlson

27:37 These are really lovely people. I'm just calling them the Hill Country High Society, okay? So you know but you can call them whatever you want now as i said these people are Trump People and I was... You know talked to a lot of different people and I think I have figured out what's going on with DeSantis And it's also Elon is involved Twitter's involved Murdoch is involved and bear with me because I've tried to kind of write this down Let's see if we can figure out what's going on and it really centers around Elon and Twitter right now So we've been asking ourselves. Why where's Tucker? He was gonna be on Twitter wasn't that I mean why announce that why say very soon And then why not be on Twitter yeah, you can't do that this is no good market It's a mistake or is it because Tucker's figured out what's going on, and I think it's the latter so Twitter No wait for

28:36 So Twitter, obviously we see Elon hiring this Yacarino character. He needs to get some revenue going because he has a big nut. He's got contracts until 2025 for AWS and Google for the infrastructure. Twitter doesn't own their own gear that's about $500 million dollars a year Can you imagine what suckers those guys were? That's a lot of bandwidth. I mean, it's the machines is everything and but at least they had it locked in but It's locked in you can't change anything so he has to stick with those contracts He's got interest payments

29:11 So, you know I think by his own admission they're losing about a hundred million dollars a month. He can't really just be ponying up himself he can't keep him going back to people he can't take it from... Yes! He has to do something right? He has to make it break even at least so we know that Elon's entire raison d'etre which is French for the reason he exists is government money So Tesla, massive government subsidies. Subsidies for his customers, subsidies for everything he did, subsidies for EV's SpaceX is other big business NASA contracts all kinds of... All government money It's all government money Now Twitter which as we know will turn into X.com it's already known as x

30:01 X.com, he says that's going to be the biggest financial company in the world, the most valuable He needs government to do this! But he has placed his bets on the next government And the next government is going to be... If it's up to Rupert Murdoch Who Elon was palling around with at the World Cup We all saw it Remember how weird that was? He sitting there with Murdoch and the crowd Yeah, neither one of them seem to be interested in soccer. No this is where they were talking about what they're gonna do so Elon is setting up his and who knows what it'll be you know but he'll get the easy easy licenses for banking or maybe the central bank digital currency or whatever I don't know but so he's keeping up this appearance of being the freeze peach guy the anti-woke guy to give credence to Ron DeSantis

30:58 And Murdoch, enter Murdoch here. He wants to control the White House this is just like succession this is Logan Roy even looks old decrepit like him so he and his you know money guys hedge funds Wall Street buddies whatever they are we know that they're that they it's their big money behind DeSantis So I think...I think that Murdoch so desperate or not desperate, so hell-bent on controlling the White House and making sure it's DeSantis he sacrifices Tucker. He sets up the whole interview with Elon and you know we saw it happen You even were for a moment there is like Elon's gonna hire him I'm gonna pay millions of dollars they had was on his show no that was all a setup And I'm sure that

31:47 Tucker was perhaps thinking that. Wait, wait, wait, let's back up what did you say I did? You want me to go find the clip because I can find it for you. What was the... When I don't care about when I may have to but I wanted to reiterate again I didn't I said by I don't remember going Crazy about he's gonna do some show for a lot of money. Yes, you said he's going to Twitter Elon is going to Pay him a lot of money on Twitter and I said no He's not going doing you said yeah? He was on his show And I could look it up But just believe me doesn't matter because you've since come around as well It's what we do so that's why there's two continue

Christina Pushaw, a key figure in Ron DeSantis's media operation, has a professional history involving work for Vladimir Zelensky in Ukraine and Mikhail Saakashvili in Georgia. Her background as a registered foreign agent and her ties to the Koch-funded "Stand Together" organization are scrutinized in the context of her current role managing influencers for DeSantis.

32:27 So, Murdoch brings in Elon into the scheme. He says hey you know maybe you can take Tucker then you can control him. Elon does all the favors gets to say launches the DeSantis campaign which of course is horrible. Elon goes all anti-woke in case we haven't noticed now of course if you look at Twitter anything that's about Trump has all these so called community notes all over it You know how this works now with Twitter, you get community notes like oh the community disagrees with this and that is automatically gets you less reach. A little bit of shadow banning but for me it was really this little bit DeSantis's chief she wasn't his press secretary before she became in charge of influencers Christina Pushaw P-S-H-A-W

33:31 This is a piece of work. You know what she was doing before she came to work for DeSantis? No, what? She was working for Vladimir Zelensky in Ukraine. It seems to ring a bell. Recruiting influencers in 2021 for his election which we know is clearly a scam because the guy's an actor She has a phone. Well, they're gonna have you I know where you're going with this They're gonna have to do a lot better job DeSantis is not Impressing anybody no, I know but you know You'd think you will agree with me that if you have Fox News run by Democrats If you have Twitter if you have New York Post if you had the Wall Street Journal, you're going to convince Republicans to vote for DeSantis you're going to do a pretty good job

34:26 You're gonna get quite far, let's put it that way. If you can contain Trump which seems to be their problem Now listen to this Pusha woman 2008 This is her Wikipedia She developed an interest in Georgia You know, Georgia the country She researched Georgia and was impressed by the accomplishments of then President Mikhail Shakhasvili The nut job who was eating his tie So she moved to Tbilisi And she worked there Uh-huh Then she worked for Yulia Tymoshenko, former Prime Minister of Ukraine. Then she went to Washington DC to work for Stand Together a philanthropic organization founded by Charles Koch I mean come on! And i think she had to register as a foreign agent yes you did at FARA Foreign Agents Registration Act in order to continue working

35:24 In the US obviously a player. Yes, but but who is she really working for can we figure that out by her travels? Well I would say right now She's working for Murdoch and the and the money guys of course it's I mean what was Ukraine about money guys intelligence agency behind this well That is always in play And I would say... But that's the question, which one? It's always the CIA. That's not always the CIA! Well which one?! They're the ones in charge of everything When i see Axios reporting that oh here's a scoop yeah I'll bring this story up for you The scoop is that YouTube

CHAPTER 11 / 51 Discussion

YouTube Election Policy, Telegram Platform Features

YouTube announced it will no longer remove content alleging fraud in past U.S. presidential elections, a move interpreted by some as preparation for a potential Biden loss. Concurrently, the platform Telegram is discussed as a "freeze peach" alternative for figures like Tucker Carlson due to its lack of de-platforming and large group chat capabilities.

youtube· telegram· donald trump· election fraud· de-platforming

36:08 Where is it now? Yeah, this is a good story. I know this one You know that YouTube says oh you know in this next election will allow videos about election fraud and disagreement over the results of the election which means they're setting it up for Biden to lose. I like this theory Now there are couple holes maybe but not a lot Well the problem you have with the theory is that Trump is still there. They're gonna have to do something about Trump. Well they tried, that was the whole thing! Remember how quiet... They're getting nowhere unless they actually arrest him

36:49 Well, remember how quiet they were when DeSantis was... or how quiet DeSantis was? When Trump and the... oh we're gonna sue him in court in New York. He's gonna go to jail that'll be the end of him! And it just doesn't happen I fear for him now they've got few options left and Trump is out there he's got their number he knows what's going on he's figured this out We're a little slow But this is, I think this is fantastic. At least we have a lens to look at stuff through So where does Tucker end up? It's an optional lens Well what other lens do you have? I don't have any lens at all What happens to Tucker He has to go somewhere but I don't think it'll be Twitter

37:49 Rumble. Well, if rumble... That would be the end of him. If it's rumble then yeah that'd be... Telegram! He's going on telegram That's what I keep hearing. Tucker's got a video on Telegram, like 8000... What's Telegram? You know what, I hate to say this but i've never gotten a telegram account and i've never used it Yeah, I really don't like telegram. I have an account because A lot of bitcoin people are on it and they swear by it. Void zero! swears by telegram. So what's the swear by? I don't know, it's safe. Oh this is the greatest what does it do? It's you know...it's the safest of all places to talk apparently because there's no there's zero de-platforming which I don't think is true uh you can have your own channel so its total freeze peach? Yeah it's all freeze peach all the time

38:48 But you know and... What is it, forums? Is it like Usenet? What does it look like? Okay so it looks so It's an app. And it looks kind of like a text message app Like Snapchat No no no! Like a text message app You know see you could have group... Like an SMS phone app Yes yes except you have group chats in these group chats can have thousands, tens of hundreds of thousands of people in there and they are owned by someone so you know the owner determines who can talk or we know they control. So you could have a group chat with Tucker? Yeah And then you can stream video Yes you could yes yes What is the maximum size of one of these group chats? We had to remember that Tucker when he was on Fox had an audience I don't know up to three million people Can you do that on

CHAPTER 12 / 51 Discussion

Matt Walsh, What Is a Woman, Twitter Safety Resignation

Twitter's Head of Trust and Safety, Ella Irwin, resigned following internal conflict over the visibility of Matt Walsh’s documentary "What Is a Woman." Elon Musk overruled staff decisions to restrict the film, asserting that while misgendering may be rude, it does not violate platform rules or laws.

matt walsh· ella irwin· twitter· daily wire· axios

39:43 telegram? I wouldn't see why not. You'd have to limit, it would be too many people to give them all talk access but yeah i think you could have all those members sure sure and so we saw just the other day Daily Wire they cut a deal with Twitter and I was kind of right about what kind of... Daily wire or daily caller? Daily wire this is what's his face fast-talking Shapiro's place yeah so they cut a deal no we're gonna put all our podcasts on Twitter which they had to pay for not it's not like Twitter saying here's all this money no Twitter has no money so they were gonna oh we're gonna upload all up which is videos in their case all of our podcasts go on Twitter and then Matt Walsh comes with Oh I'm going to put my what is a woman documentary and I put that with big quotes actually have a clip about this

40:39 Let's play this and then I can continue the report. Where is it here? Well, let me put off guard here. Pay attention! Oh here, quitter a-hole no What is this? Where is it? Yeah, Twitter a-hole quits. Twitter's head of trust and safety has resigned from the company Ella Irwin took over the department in November after previous head Yul Roth resigned she oversaw content moderation Irwin did not comment on her resignation however Axios reports the decision followed controversy over video titled what is a woman

41:15 Twitter staff determined it violates age rules and didn't allow it. The film focuses on gender and transgender issues. Musk called the decision a mistake by many people at Twitter, and said its definitely allowed He later tweeted whether or not you agree with someone's using preferred pronouns Not doing so is at most rude And certainly breaks no laws The entrepreneur added that he personally uses peoples' preferred pronouns simply for good manners However, he says he objects to rude behavior cancellation or threats of violence for not using someone's preferred pronouns for the same reason. Exactly! So this is now you see exactly what's going on within Twitter You have the trust and safety team whatever is left with them I liked a way Axios played a role Oh yeah oh yeah

42:04 So the trust and safety team, we gotta keep our eye on them too. Who owns Axios? Did they sell that to someone Bloomberg another big money outfit who owns it? No, Lorraine Jobs owns it She owns Axios Yeah I think so. Axios owner really...I thought that was already done Don't think she sold it Looks like it was sold to Cox Are you sure she's a... I don't know, but i'll look into it as you continue your lecture. So the point is now you see the friction that is happening within Twitter where so the way I see it the plan is we're going to use DeSantis as the anti-woke guy and we're going to get rid of woke and that's actually gonna make America better

CHAPTER 13 / 51 Discussion

Woke Branding, Corporate Stock Manipulation Theories

A theory is presented suggesting that "woke" corporate initiatives at companies like Target and Anheuser-Busch are used by financial elites to intentionally depress stock prices. This allows for leadership changes and subsequent "rebranding" efforts that generate profit on both the decline and the eventual recovery of the brands.

anheuser-busch· target· disney· blackrock· woke capitalism

42:56 And everyone's all in. Disney is in, as we just heard like businesses and business is like this is dumb This is not a smart thing Meanwhile the same guys who started this woke stuff made money shorting all these stocks and now as you we all know We're gonna get as you even said You know, we're gonna fire the CEOs then they'll be oh new blood coming him. I'm that new boy I'm a good old boyfriend Heiser Busch. I'm gonna fix this company You watch that'll happen. Bring in Woody, bring in Bush the fourth The same will happen with Target That guy's completely dispensable, that CEO That guy, he's been bouncing around. He's totally despicable that's what my theory was I mentioned it on Horowitz' show No you mentioned it on this show before you even mentioned it on Horowitz Yes I probably did and by the way The idea is to sink the stock fire the guy stock goes up It's everyone's got a signal not that hard to figure out By the way its not Horowitz' show Its DH Unplugged Dvorak Horowitz You even have preference over his name It's the other show you do It's okay So everyone's making Continue

44:03 Okay, Cara. Everyone's making money on the way down and will make money on the way up We're going to bring America back And they're going to control it like they always want to Who financed Obama? Who financed this term of Obama It's the same people Yeah. So this is a genius move and meanwhile, of course the Republicans in general are like yeah! This is great go Ronnie! Ronnie's gonna save us and Ronnie not going to save anything we're gonna be still stuck in the same financial prison we're always stuck in you know it will probably still be at war if you know the military-industrial complex will still do fine

44:47 We're just gonna stop the woke and that'll be the end of the war, and then you know that'll be minimized And you won't hear about it. That much man. It's crazy There you go. It's crazy when they did it again I know I got it. I can't help myself my muscle get it all out When you when you hear what Fox News is doing? I mean they are there completely going against all things conservative by the way this DeSantis And I agree with the policies Florida has done. By the way, that's the Florida legislature it's not just Governor DeSantis

CHAPTER 14 / 51 Discussion

Ron DeSantis, Name Pronunciation, Axios Ownership

Ron DeSantis has faced media scrutiny for inconsistent pronunciations of his own surname, alternating between "Dee-Santis" and "Duh-Santis" in campaign materials. Additionally, the ownership of Axios is clarified as belonging to Cox Enterprises, with significant investment history from NBCUniversal and Laurene Powell Jobs.

ron desantis· axios· cox enterprises· nbcuniversal· young turks

45:24 But he doesn't even know how to pronounce his own name, the guy's so phony. DeSantis or de-santis? And according to reporting from Axios in the early days of his campaign, DeSantis and I'm sticking to it has gone back and forth between pronouncing his name Dee Santas and da Santus during his first week as a candidate He pronounced his name is Dee Santas in his campaign announcement video and again during a radio interview Let's watch I'm Ron DeSantis and i'm running for president to lead our great American comeback. Where can people find you to donate, volunteer or find out more about you?

46:00 Just go to rondesantis.com. But then he goes on Fox News for an interview and all of a sudden, he backpedals. Anybody that's so inclined to help us I would love to have your support at rondesantis.com. I'd love for all your folks out there invest with us at rondesantis.com we'd love to have your support if anyone wants to help out just go to rondesantis.com We wish you all the best. Rondesantis.com Mark That was the Young Turks So the also I really they're really busted that controversy open. That's the Young Turks You're not gonna hear this on Fox because you know, these have to roll with it and just It's a different topic but I just want you to love anybody just interrupt you sure in yes, you can she

46:52 It was Atlantic Media and her money that helped bankroll the early days of Axios. Yes, I guess she's still an investor but you're right it was Cox Enterprises to get from the get-go and Jim Venn to Haye and Mike Allen is Roy Schwartz really the founders and who wasn't considered a founder so i was wrong Who owns Cox? Cox is a really traditional old, privately held global conglomerate headquartered in Atlanta. Approximately 55 thousand employees 21 billion it's an old founded in 1898 mm-hmm It's a big publishing company yeah been around forever Well what side of the do you think they are they play in politics? I can hardly imagine they wouldn't

47:44 Well, since NBCUniversal is one of the big investors in this Axios operation. It looks very conservative to me. There you go. So that's why Axios... I'm sorry. Liberal? You mean liberal? You meant to say liberal. I meant to say liberally look liberal to me based on where I've seen come out Now i've said for years Fox News is run by Democrats I've said the same thing. It's not about who said what, we... You want points? Okay John has said for years Fox News is run by Democrats and well I haven't said as long as you have here is a prime example

CHAPTER 15 / 51 Discussion

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Climate Change Rebranding, Fox News

Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger advocated for rebranding "climate change" as "pollution" to make the issue more relatable to the public. Fox News contributors reacted positively to this shift, signaling a potential change in how conservative-leaning media outlets approach environmental messaging.

arnold schwarzenegger· climate change· pollution· fox news· mollie hemingway

48:31 This is a climate change topic, but I just just so you can understand what's going on over there Arnold Schwarzenegger is taking on A new role the action star and former California governor is now on a crusade to tackle climate change But first he said there needs to be some rebranding as long as they keep talking about global climate change They're not gonna go anywhere because no one give me way up about that So my thing is let's go and rephrase this and communicate differently about it, and really tell people we're talking about pollution. Pollution creates climate change, and pollution kills. Mollie how refreshing to have someone with just a common sense approach he's not wrong yeah you know the rebranding issue climate change has been deeply politicized now for two decades and maybe a little bit of rebranding could help listen to these people

49:25 How can they be on board with climate change? And particularly, pollution is climate change now. Pollution kills wind! Yeah so they're totally following a political agenda And it's not the one people used to think they follow, which they didn't follow either. So I think this is the big game. I'm going to look at it this way and the problem is Trump. They haven't been able to put him in jail. He's no good. He's he's not good in this scenario because he doesn't play this game. No. Which of course right from the get go you said he wasn't gonna do it? Which of course makes him funnier makes him really good

50:06 But not in the grant, this is like... You have violated the rules! What was the name of that? Network TV. Yeah yeah yeah. With who was the actor that brought him into the front office and read him to riot act about the great rules of the world. Yes yes Ned Beatty. There you go. You've violated the rules Yeah, that's exactly what is going on here because these are the people who run the world at least our American part of it and they don't care.

50:46 and they will sacrifice anything and everything to do it. The only thing that... I mean, now i'm actually going to rescind my Michelle Obama for 2024. I'm taking that back now. What? You can't do that! I have to because of it would be insane Because it doesn't look through your new lens Yes, yeah, I'm allowed to change my lens Of course it doesn't you are so adamant this is annoying Okay, it would be such a Hail Mary. It would have to be an Obama ego trip to do that not not Michelle Barack you see the post there's opposed I think somebody sent it to me and there is a Actually was sent on a private message to me this

CHAPTER 16 / 51 Discussion

Pride Month, Progressive Pride Flag, School Activism

The evolution of "Gay Pride Month" into "Pride Month" is discussed alongside the adoption of the "Progressive Pride Flag," which incorporates trans and BIPOC symbols. A viral video of a teacher promoting a "Day of Love" and selling various pride flags in a high school cafeteria serves as a focal point for criticism regarding gender activism in schools.

pride month· progressive pride flag· lgbtq· gender and sexuality alliance· trans rights

51:32 one of our producers with a couple of pictures of Michelle with the, you know, the kind of package. Yes. Saying that reason they were trying to normalize transgenderism is so Michelle can run for president as Big Mike. No I'm sorry no this...I'm telling you this backlash is on and I'd like to make it very clear There was nothing wrong with Pride Month. Even though it's kind of weird that you know moms get one day, just saying... I want to mention that and put in the newsletter that I don't know if you've noticed this but it used to be Gay Pride Month! Yes of course! Of course I have a talk clip

52:24 That has brought some new facts to light. All right, well I have some clips but we'll go with yours. Veering off of the topic like crazy! Talk, talk, tick-tock. This is a teacher... A very effeminate male teacher probably nonbinary talking about what they're gonna do because you know the pride month doesn't coincide with the school year which kids get out of school. Right yeah It's almost Pride Month. Unfortunately, our high school year ends just before June begins What's a Gender and Sexuality Alliance sponsored to do? Our club members wanted a day to feel prideful near the end of the year So we came up with The Day Of Love! The focus of The Day Of Love is simple

53:06 to broadcast a message of support and positivity about our school's LGBTQ population in a fun way. And maybe we can start a few productive conversations along the way from year to year, depending on the size of our membership. We've done a variety of activities throughout The Day Of Love but at its most basic, we sell pride flags and crafts have productive conversations, and celebrate. Today let's talk about selling flags and crafts. Small pride flags are easy to order online and you can sell them for like a dollar but the profit isn't the point The point is to give people in your building an opportunity to display their support for the community in a highly visible way Besides the progressive pride flag I let our members decide what kind of pride flags they wanted on our limited budget

53:50 So this year we have classic progressive pride, pan, trans, bi and the updated lesbian flag. I like to send out a google form for my colleagues who can't make it down to the cafeteria where The Day of Love is happening that way our flags can make it all over the school when possible I also like to sell crafts that our members make and this year oh my god we have little pride frogs to have, oh my gosh this is amazing I'm gonna buy them all. I'm not going to be able to wait and we have the flag sales in a central location in our cafeteria so that people come in and then that's where part two can happen the conversations what is do tell what is the updated lesbian flag

54:31 I have not seen the updated lesbian flag. No, I have seen it but i can't remember what's special about is not that interesting What was interesting in that whole presentation was the classic progressive pride flag He did not have a pride flag there was no gay flag in his collection What was the progressive pride flag? the progressive pride flag, is the one that has that arrow going in there showing the trans pushing the prides of the gays out. Well exactly and... That progressive pride flag should be a warning shot to gay people and lesbians and gay men, the cis

55:14 normal cis homosexuals, the only way to put it using this language. Because it's a warning shot. It's like look we're moving in on you and your whole flag is going to get wiped out that the gay flag is now no good! It's got to be the progressive gay flag which has all these other...that has that arrow looking thing going in on it. Well so that's what we're seeing happening first of all for the... To begin my comment, you have to remember that it used to be Gay Pride Month. Yes and now it's just Pride Month as soon it'll be Trans Pride Month That's correct and trans

Gays Against Groomers, Target Boycott, Parental Rights

A growing backlash against LGBTQ+ initiatives in schools and retail has led to the emergence of groups like "Gays Against Groomers" and "LGB without the T." Protests at a Los Angeles elementary school and the removal of pride merchandise from Target stores highlight the intensifying conflict over parental rights and childhood innocence.

target· gays against groomers· lgb without the t· eric carnell· los angeles

55:56 pride came right on the heels of Black Lives Matter. And then Black Lives Matter got tossed aside like, okay thanks black people good for you in America certainly in the 70s I was around we were happy with our gays we didn't care do whatever you want! You're great on roller skates we love that our gay boys and roller skates are great lesbians you cool not a problem not a problem but the pushing and During this show, during the lifetime of this show we had more gay marriage and same-sex couples allowed in the United States than most countries in Europe. Not a problem! We're good but you know the pushing and the pushing on the kids is what did it And now everyone's figured it out and that's part of that You know the target wear all of this stuff and Americans are starting to say no

56:55 And all of this comes from the same political push, the progressive—note the term progressive pride flag. So now we're seeing gays against groomers thank you boys! We're seeing LGP not-the-T... LGB not-the-T is now a Twitter hashtag it's a group of lesbians gays and bisexuals it should just be LG but okay LGBT not-the-T and that's because they pushed and pushed and pushed and then got pharma into it, and just started doing this stuff with children. And that's where everyone thinks of the children! And once America started to figure out... Hold on a second we're not gonna let this happen. An now the backlash is on. As pride flags rise across the country

57:39 So does the heated debate around LGBTQ plus initiatives. Pride events at a Los Angeles elementary school Friday sparked tense protests. We want our kids to just be innocent and come to school and not have to deal with sexuality. They did not have the right to make people afraid of being a child in this district because you're gay! Now listen to the difference in these two parents One parent, calm collected. Hey you know kids shouldn't be dealing with sexuality in this grammar school the unhinged parent is exactly that! Unhinged

58:19 She was screaming just completely at the end of her wits, which is sad. Of course sad but this isn't at this point that's a mental condition. Listen and come to school and not have to deal with sexuality They did not have the right to make people afraid to be a child in this district because No one ever did that lady. Social media fueled backlash is putting many companies in the culture wars crossfire Target pulled some of its pride merchandise last week including items by designer Eric Carnell citing security concerns The second it gets hard if you're gonna jump ship, that's a very dangerous thing to tell people

CHAPTER 18 / 51 Discussion

Bud Light Sales Slump, Disney Investment Cancellation

The boycott of Bud Light following its partnership with Dylan Mulvaney has reportedly resulted in a $27 billion loss in market value for Anheuser-Busch. Meanwhile, Disney canceled a planned $1 billion investment in Florida amid its ongoing legal and political feud with Governor Ron DeSantis over the "Don't Say Gay" legislation.

bud light· dylan mulvaney· disney· ron desantis· orlando

58:59 A boycott of Bud Light has cost the beer giant about $27 billion. Isn't that great how now they put in Kid Rock's machine gun fire sound effects? I'm going to talk about Bud Light! That is very dangerous thing, to tell people... A boycott of Bud Light has cost the beer giant about 27 billion dollars in lost sales since April 1st when it teamed up with transgender social media star Dylan Mulvaney Love ya! In Florida, Disney holds its plans to invest about a billion dollars into the state following Republican Governor Ron DeSantis' Don't Say Gay legislation. That should have been so-called don't say gay legislation CBS? A billion dollars into the state following Republican Governor Ron DeSantis's Don't Say Gay legislation. Disney's posturing has alienated a lot of people now

59:50 But the controversy isn't stopping celebrations as thousands flock to Orlando this weekend for the annual Gay Days event. See how even CBS winds up with gay days event not with a pride event, but besides that and I want to make it very clear no one has a problem with transgender adults No one has a problem with probably don't even have a problem with transgender teenagers if you're 18 19 going into 20's okay But the problem is the actual attacks through social media, through pharma and related medical industry, psychiatrists etc. And this has been going on for a long time with the drugging of our children nothing new for this show

1:00:39 So when people say they want to erase trans people, no that's not true. It's just not true But you want to erase children and you want to mess with children without telling their parents? This is a problem in America NBC well the usages are you know even beyond that this this concept of went to erase trans people It's the constant harping by the media that this is anti-trans legislation and book banning. Burning, burning! And they don't make it clear...nobody makes it clear that these are not...this is not book banning. It either is removing

1:01:20 pornography from the children's library. How is that book banning? Well, and that's what the media just does and by the way if you're on Twitter And you hit it if you're on any anywhere on the internet You hit a link there's no news everything is paywall all this left as headlines I even got a payroll from The Guardian today That never used to happen So everything is paywalled, all that's left is screenshots of clickbait headlines which says they're erasing trans people. We have trans producers! We don't care? We love everybody who produces here but it's very clear what's going on and you're right and the media has psyoped everybody and now the call has gone out for most not all that we're turning this around NBC

CHAPTER 19 / 51 Discussion

Corporate Pride-Washing, Transgender Medical Bans

Major corporations including Apple, North Face, and Kohl's face increased scrutiny and potential boycotts for their Pride Month marketing. As 20 states pass bans on transgender medical treatments for minors, sponsors are becoming more hesitant to engage in "pride-washing" due to fears of impacting their bottom line.

nbc news· apple· absolute vodka· north face· kohl's

1:02:08 June is Pride Month and there's no missing its kickoff. Rainbow flags are everywhere, there are t-shirts and hats Apple has a watch Absolute Vodka has a special bottle Companies have got more involved in pride as a sign of how the whole culture is changing But this year the landscape has shifted You're going to get rainbow vomit on everything across corporate America Some corporations stepping into a fierce fight over transgender issues It plays out in state houses. When you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands and on cable news the same people who encourage minors to have life-altering hormones and surgery on their genitalia and even begin transitioning without parental consent

1:02:50 They have done and are doing enormous damage to young people. Target moved its Pride Month merchandise, including a transgender-friendly bathing suit to the back of some of its stores after customer backlash. These are like naked people in shirts Its stock price dropped more than 15% in two weeks. I got some Bud Lights for us! Bud Light marketed a customized can featuring transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, triggering an outcry. Sales dropped nearly 30%. That's a lie! What's that? It's a lie! These reports are all just so slanted you pointed out in the last one where they didn't use this word so-called which is what they should have done

1:03:33 They didn't market a can with Mulvaney on it. They sent Mulvaney a special can that they printed for her. Lies! People insurance, its stock price dropped more than 15% in two weeks I got some Bud Lights for us. Bud Light marketed a customized can featuring transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney triggering an outcry sales dropped nearly 30%. There are calls to boycott Kohl's because of its pride-themed baby clothes and North Face, the outdoor company as well. We like to call this little tour the summer of pride! Transgender issues still seem strange and scary to people. 20 states have passed bans on transgender medical treatment for minors Does this very angry debate

1:04:17 cast a shadow over some of the progress that has been made. I think everyone is aware that issues that seem to be settled just a few years ago are up for grabs again. Pride organizers across the country tell NBC News Digital, that their once eager sponsors are now more hesitant growing fearful backlash will target their bottom line Right, so in America the business of America is still business. So this is what's happening But they've even got lists on social... I'm on a list now! I got a tweet and we've only talked about trans Maoism I would say in general but here's the tweet and this is how I know that I'm a list

CHAPTER 20 / 51 Discussion

Stochastic Terrorism Claims, National Center for Transgender Equality

Josie Caballero of the National Center for Transgender Equality appeared on "Meet the Press" to discuss the "stochastic terrorism" allegedly caused by social media figures. The segment is analyzed for the use of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) by host Chuck Todd to lead the witness and frame corporate hesitancy as cowardice.

1:04:58 Hey Adam, it's Texas Mandy with your New World Order Illuminati transhumanism update special yeehaw hashtag no agenda show seriously Adam lighten up on the anti-trans rhetoric. That's not someone who is listening to the show What? Yeah Hey Adam it's Texas Mandy this is a tweet With your new world order Illuminati transhumanism update special yeehaw no agenda show hashtag no agenda show seriously Adam lighten up on the anti-trans rhetoric. What a mixed message! It's because I'm just, we're just on the list and yeah it is fake as a fake message they put that hashtag whatever yeah they can associate with you exactly in and that i'm sure that message will go out to other people so

1:05:53 And I think this is part of, it's sad. It's really sad because we've gone through quite a horrible period certainly in the United States. It's not just here it's everywhere as usual America has always been trendsetter and now that's going to be turned back and the business people in America have decided okay time to whipsaw this thing around! We put in Ronnie D., were good to go then I might mention we went from Gay pride to pride. Please remember great pride comes before a great fall and when you just position this pride that's Almost one of the sins Here is one of the seven deadly sins, correct? Great Pride comes before a great fall here's NBC with Chuck Todd who we'll have to talk about later With the director of special projects for the National Center for Transgender Equality

1:06:49 Josie Caballero. What are you hearing here look It's a new combo we haven't witnessed they're dropping this word here Look at it. We've caught this before I've caught it before yes, it is It's NLP. I'm trying to understand the mechanism and why it is being used in the first place. Hypnotism, NLP? Yes it has got to have some hypnotic thing but he's asking a question and within the question he saying here look... It's leading the witness

1:07:42 with NLP leading the witness and psyoping the interviewed and the audience at the same time. We'll start it over What is happening in these executive conversations? I know you've been doing some reporting, you had some of these conversations what are you hearing? Look we know one thing about corporate executives... What are you hearing? I mean look i'm going to tell you what your hearing That's what it is! What do you hear? Look I am gonna tell you what your hearing They can just be cowards And I mean this If they come from the left or the right, they want to just crawl under their desk. What are you sensing? What's happening is that these executives are really having to do this balancing act where they want a market merchandised to about 9-10% of the population that demands this stuff. I'd like to see that statistic. Nine to 10 percent of America demands this stuff?! Wow! What a lie! No it's under 1%.

1:08:37 merchandise to, you know about 9-10% of the population that demands this stuff versus the backlash and the anger and the vitriol. And the threats to their staff in their customer base so it's a very hard time for them to realize like should we work in the side of profits instead of products? Or should we try to look at the safety of our own staff and employees? Newsflash, Josie. America works on the side of profits always. Always! Business in general Always, there's more. We also need to make sure that these corporations start taking real stances this isn't about just putting a rainbow logo out on your community this is more than that and they have to make public statements to say we're gonna serve the people that want these products I was just going to say you're about...we're about to learn who's an ally and who is simply I don't know what you want to call it pride-washing? I guess might be a phrase

1:09:36 Absolutely, because now the rainbow logo actually means something. Because the second you slap it on your organization you're going to have extreme ideologues coming at you and so really we're gonna see like you said who is gonna stand by this pride of month I mean this month of pride whoa that's an interesting flub this pride of months And so really we're gonna see, like you said who is going to stand by this pride of month I mean this month of pride right now and We'll see who our real allies are and see if their activism was just paper thin. Yeah trust me Of course it's paper-thin Where's the Black Lives Matter t-shirts? Where'd those go?!

CHAPTER 21 / 51 Discussion

Transgender Rights, Pro-Child Legislation, Media Bias

The discussion critiques the media's framing of "anti-trans" legislation, arguing that such laws are actually "pro-child" and intended to protect minors from life-altering medical procedures. The current political climate is described as a "trans Maoist" push by the Democrat Party that is beginning to lose public support.

1:10:22 That didn't last long, did it? Ah! Black people are all saved. It's all good. Black Americans for the win. No... no these companies don't care. One more clip. that have used social media to gain traction. Oh yeah, you see any responsibility here in social media companies or is that a desperate attempt to throw Elon under the bus? It's something that ship has so sailed there's nothing we can do about it anyway. Yeah, that ship is so sailed Todd Well you have seen the loosening of TOS standards and then in terms of use and some of these social media companies So you've seen loosening behavior where on Twitter

1:11:05 now openly misgender people, which is wrong. But honestly we need to- It's wrong! It's wrong it's wrong! Twitter you can actually now openly misgender people which is wrong but honestly we need to start calling this what it is. Stochastic terrorism. These people are raising people's anxieties and anger, saying very explicit things like we're going after children. And it's causing these radical few voices to actually take up and do action. And yes absolutely social media companies are responsible for not holding these media figures to account

1:11:46 This is totally a lapse on the part of the media. We do not have an honest media in the United States and these people I think like this Josie, this director of... let me get that Josie's title right... Transgender... Director Special Projects at The National Center for Transgender Equality first of all And I have to say it kind of started with we need special rights, you know We need transgender rights and all that is just fake and phony everybody in America has rights. We all have the same rights It's just it was just bull and the media misreported the media miss reports on as you pointed out the anti-trans Legislation no, it's not anti its pro child this pro young person. Its pro protecting children That's what that is

1:12:37 But the media does such a horrible job of it that I don't think this person even understands what's really going on. You know, they just oh yeah here's another headline oh yeah so Republicans blah Republicans bleh. That is the that is the phrase du jour. Republicans bleh! Now, but basically all this is about yeah well that's the trans Maoist part you know the Democrat Party tried to grab onto this and say ah now we can really do it We can really use these people and it's just the wheels are coming off of it. And, it's a pretty good vehicle they've put together with DeSantis but it's not like The Savior and I'm not... Please! Glad that it's gonna stop but this is not the end of America's problems with our politics Now before I play my last transmiswim clip A very sad day today Sad day for this show

Chuck Todd announced his departure from "Meet the Press" after nearly a decade as host, with Kristen Welker named as his successor. Todd's sign-off emphasized his pride in expanding the show into a "political franchise" including film festivals and podcasts, though he plans to remain at NBC to work on docuseries and docudramas.

1:14:21 Which is... By the way, today? Yeah yeah today. You caught it early. We got him! Yeah he Kristen Welker is gonna take over Oh God I know I don't think she'll be much better but some interesting flubs right at the beginning of this goodbye, see if you can catch it. Welcome back I have a personal announcement while today is not my final show this is going to be my final summer here at Meet the Press It's been an amazing nearly decade long run I'm pretty really proud what this team and I've built over the last decade First of all he says I'm pretty and I mean really He said he's pretty proud No you can't be really proud because You know you failed basically This is gonna be my final summer here in Meet The Press

1:15:10 It's been an amazing nearly decade-long run. I'm pretty really proud of what this team and I have built over the last decade, and frankly the last 15 plus years that i've been here at NBC which also includes my time as political director. I love so much of this job... Tell me he didn't say I've loathed so much of his job and turns it into love tell me That's what he said! He said I loathed Which also includes my time as political director. I've loathed so much of this job, which also includes my time as political director. I've loved loved so much at this job helping to explain America to Washington truth comes out and explain Washington to America

1:15:57 When I took over Meet the Press, it was a Sunday show that had a lot of people questioning whether it could still have a place in the modern media space. Nope! Oh he saved the show! Of course he's got to prop himself up! We've taken Meet the Press from a single Sunday show to a distinct and important political franchise. From our daily show, Meet the Press Now... Our magazine show, Meet the Press Reports... To our newsletters and podcasts. Woo! We've successfully expanded what makes Meet the Press special on Sundays to make it special no matter where or when it airs. That includes our annual Meet the Press Film Festival as well which is- Oh brother! Wait wait dude

1:16:36 It's very important this meet the press film festival. The topic or where it airs or when it airs that includes our annual Meet the Press Film Festival as well which has somehow become one of the most important festivals for Oscar buzz and nominations for news driven documentary. Oh shit! Chuck Todd responsible for Oscar buzz. I love it you want to hear more? It gets better Well, I'm not stopping you. But the key to survival of any of these incredible media entities... His ratings! ...including here at Meet The Press is for leaders not to overstay their welcome Oh leaders should not overstay their welcome? Tell that to Putin tell that to Zelensky tell that to Biden! I'd rather leave a little bit too soon than stay a tad bit too long. I've had two amazing professional chapters and already have plans for my next chapter including some projects right here at NBC News

1:17:28 Okay, he's out. I'm gonna do some special reports that have been very focused on among them docu-series and some docudramas. Docuseries? John! Docuseries what's a docusery? He also said docudrama. Docudramas yes is that going to air on MSNBC or was it gonna air in your podcast? I already have plans for my next chapter including some projects right here at NBC News that i've been very focused on among them... He has his funny patter It's a milieu patter, he talks in bursts. He says it's rhythmic. Very interesting. Yeah well he is a robot!

CHAPTER 23 / 51 Discussion

Media Deconstruction, Chuck Todd Sign-off Analysis

An analysis of Chuck Todd's final "Meet the Press" remarks highlights contradictions in his statements regarding "building a brand" versus "reporting the facts." The deconstruction notes Todd's past role in promoting COVID-19 vaccinations and his claim that he welcomes attacks from partisans as a sign of journalistic success.

chuck todd· nbc news· journalism· covid-19· brand building

1:18:15 to educate the public better, bridge our divides and pierce our political bubbles. Pierce our political bubbles? Hey you know when they when Rachel Maddow left wasn't she also going to do docudramas and docu-series where are those it never happens Jane Pauly now all that it's a lie! You get Jane Pauly got a Sunday morning show is she still does it I'm thinking of someone else but you know it's like one of those things oh I'll still be working for the network Because they say, okay we're gonna kick you out and but you know... We'll do a first look deal with you. A first-look deal for your docudramas and docuseries. Yeah that would be the way to do it yeah. And so I do and we deconstruct media and we owe it to Chuck Todd

1:18:58 to deconstruct his swan song here. To educate the public better, bridge our divides and pierce our political bubbles Where was all that during the 20 years you were there Chuck Todd? Why didn't you pierce the bubbles now? He may have pierced a bubble by now how long does it take? he's just blowing the bubbles up! So while I may be leaving this chair i'm still going to help NBC navigate and coach colleagues in this 2024 campaign season and beyond Oh he got a coaching job that's what it is Yeah, we'll pay you 20 grand a year to coach. To coach people. You can coach Jen Psaki! But this is also an important time for me personally I've let work consume me for nearly 30 years Oh? I can't remember the last time i didn't wake up before 5 or 6 am and as I've watched too many friends and family let work consume them before it was too late

1:19:48 I promised my family, I wouldn't do that. And just as important... Oh he's all choked up because his family you know he's doing it for his family this is a new yeah this is a new bent on I want to focus and spend more time with my family and other projects? It was just like that guy from the Today Show Which guy? The guy who got what was the guy who I already forgot his name This is so pathetic Matt Lauer? Matt Lauer oh yeah yeah He spent more time with his family Yeah His family left him! And this is what really makes me happy I'm understanding things are going to happen with Chuck here. Yeah, Chuck is not doing well And just as important and this is what really makes me happy

1:20:25 I'm also ready to take a step back because i have so much confidence in the person whom im gonna pass the baton to. She's somebody who has been ready for this for a long time, Kristen Walker. I had the privilege of working with her from essentially her first day here in Washington. And let me just say she is the right person- That's white privilege Todd! In the right moment and for what it's worth this is always how I hoped that this would end for me. What? This is always how I hoped it would end for me. With me getting kicked out... As opposed to a bullet to the head, what is he talking about?! Let me just say she's the right person in the right moment and for what its worth this is always how I hoped this would end for me that I'd be passing the baton to her Now if you're kind of bad about mocking him but he's been so horrible throughout the year He's really been a horrible man. He's really inflamed

1:21:21 the issues amongst Americans, as is the whole NBC News product. He's made matters worse. He has made matters worse yes. And I'll officially do that in September. I'll be honest though, I leave feeling concerned about this moment in history. Oh! Yes concern all right Chuck Todd? But reassured by the standards we've set here We didn't tolerate propagandists and this network and program never will but it doesn't mean sticking your head in the sand either If you ignore reality You'll miss the big story Being a real political journalist isn't about building a brand. It's about reporting what is happening and explaining why it's happening. Hold on! Stop, stop! Yes? Didn't we just hear about three minutes ago...

1:22:03 About the big building the brand of meet the press and a daily show and the film festivals We've turned into a massive brand I'm proud of and now he says nah Can't keep his message straight at least no. He only has three minutes is hard to do if you ignore reality You'll miss the big story. Being a real political journalist isn't about building a brand, it's about reporting what is happening and explaining why it's happening and letting the public absorb the facts If you do this job seeking popularity, you are doing this job incorrectly Wait wasn't Chuck Todd who told everyone they should be ashamed of themselves for not taking the COVID shot? Wasn't that him quite frankly I believe so You should be ashamed of yourselves Should be ashamed of yourself for not taking the COVID shot Exactly

CHAPTER 24 / 51 Discussion

The View, LGBTQ Acceptance Study, Glamour UK Cover

Hosts on "The View" cited a GLAAD study claiming 84% of Americans support LGBTQ+ equal rights to argue that critics are "out of touch." The discussion also touches on a controversial Glamour UK cover featuring a pregnant transgender man and the lack of concrete data regarding LGBTQ+ suicide rates in the United States.

the view· glaad· glamour uk· logan roy· suicide data

1:22:54 I take the attacks from partisans as compliments. And, I take the compliments from partisans with a grain of salt The goal in this and every Meet the Press episode is to do all of the following in one informative hour Make you mad? Make you think? Shake your head in disapproval? Nod your head in approval? If you do all that in one hour of this show We've done our job. So again, this isn't goodbye but know this no matter who sits in this chair on Sunday it's meet the press. I don't think he was good as Chip. Chip was better! Anyway, just one final clip we'll go back to the network that has still not received the memo because we had CBS NBC ABC is still hanging on for some reason Oh what are you drinking? Why'd you crack open? This is a La Croix or Lacroix You know...I would pronounce it Lacroix but I think Lacroix is how they market it

1:24:01 I think they do too, you know. It's just a La Croix Pure Oh pure so it's just water with bubbles? Yeah basically bubbly water In a can Overpriced bubbly water In a can Here is the view You know welcome back it is the start of pride month Wooo! But as I'm sure you're all aware, the attacks against the LGBTQ community have been insane this year and are heating up even more. And you know, I guess my question is what does the right think that they're going to achieve by this kind of mongering?

1:24:50 Well, they're not going to achieve it because they are out of line with what the country believes. GLAAD released a study today on accelerating acceptance 84% of non-LGBTQ Americans support equal rights for LGBTQ community 96 percent believe that schools should be a safe place for openness and acceptance for young people I don't believe that LGBTQ people should be able to live freely and their lives not to be discriminated against. They are out of touch and out of line so they will not win which means this Pride Month is more important than ever, not to hunker down but to be louder than ever and prouder than ever

1:25:27 So this is the thing, of course no American disagrees with that. We don't disagree with that! Everybody should have the same rights in America. Yeah well they do There's no disagreement Of course if you're in school and your gay trans bi lesbian whatever fine No one has a problem with that It's the attack That people have a problem with Disingenuous view ladies tut-tut-tut Just one One interesting little tidbit I saw here in the New York Times, what do we know about not pressuring children into transitioning to the other gender? They're going to kill themselves. Yeah that's the main thesis. Would you rather have a dead daughter or alive son? You've heard that. That's the one! New York Times. No one knows how many LGBTQ Americans die by suicide. What?!

1:26:28 Death investigators are trying to learn how many gay and transgender people die by suicide in the United States. They don't even know! There's not there's not even any data on this. Anyway, it's just gone too far. Just gone too far. It's going too far and Americans because of the business of America... And by the way Glamour magazine you'll find out that the... That was Glamour UK by the way, the spectacular. Oh is it Glamour UK? Yeah, I thought it was glamour. Let me see is it glamor UK? Oh you're right now You're right. It says glamour UK all right well Maybe the UK school with that but most women who buy glamor don't want to see a dude big a big pregnant dude No Well you'll find out maybe the UK is different can't speak for that

1:27:28 Well, they've cut back on all this stuff in the UK. They closed the clinics and did all these other things So I don't know what this what the point of this magazine cover is which if it's not a parody Do we know for a fact that actually exists? I haven't gotten any proof of that well Yahoo! Yahoo! so yeah would be pretty stupid if they If they screwed up this story, I don't know Anyway, America is a great country. We really do have all kinds of leniency and we love all Americans and we really don't care what you do but just don't go after the children Don't do this weird stuff in school

Joe Biden, Debt Ceiling Speech, Bipartisanship Claims

President Joe Biden delivered his first Oval Office address to celebrate the passage of the bipartisan budget agreement and the aversion of a default crisis. Biden touted his administration's record of signing over 350 bipartisan laws, focusing on infrastructure improvements and the domestic manufacturing of semiconductor chips.

joe biden· debt ceiling· oval office· infrastructure· semiconductor chips

1:28:12 And thank you Wall Street big money people, Murdoch, Logan Roy, Ron DeSantis. Thank you for setting us straight but watch out everybody because say hello to the new boss same as the old boss it's... You're not getting the great new whatever No, you're getting a just a retread. You're getting a retread yeah well it's it's better branding I mean we're good at rebranding in America so that's not bad I'm okay with better branding but better branding is good let us...let me see oh yeah I want to do a couple of Biden clips and know what your beat but Bidens address to the cadets did involved some American stuff but also the

1:29:08 the debt ceiling deal that was cut. Let me see, I think i'll just start with him here. My fellow Americans... No this is not from the Cadet Academy, this is his Oval Office speech. Oh after the debt ceiling sign-off? Yes! I think this is the first time he's done an Oval Office speech has it not? He doesn't do them often. No, he doesn't. Well here he is! My fellow Americans when I ran for president i was told the days of bipartisanship were over and that Democrats and Republicans could no longer work together What's a laugh talk? We can no longer work together but I refuse to believe that because America can never give into that way of thinking look the only way American democracy can function is through compromise and consensus

1:30:08 And that's what I work to do as your president. You know, to forge bipartisan agreement where it is possible and where it's needed. I've signed more than 350 bipartisan laws thus far in almost two-and-a-half years including a historic law that rebuilding America so we can rank number one in the world of infrastructure instead of where we're ranked now number 13 in the world Another historic law, rebuilding our manufacturing base so that we'll lead the world once again in making semiconductor chips. So much more and so many more sophisticated ones and now a bipartisan budget agreement this is vital

1:30:48 Because it's essential to the progress we've made over the last few years is keeping full faith and credit of the United States America, and passing a budget that continues to grow our economy. It reflects our values as a nation. That's why I'm speaking tonight to report on the crisis averted and what we're doing to protect America's future. Yeah, so make no mistake of course the Republicans and Democrats in Congress they're in collusion you know they don't care it's same old same old stuff but there is one point that I think this is going to be his re-election

CHAPTER 26 / 51 Discussion

Social Security, Washington Journal Call-in Scripting

President Biden has positioned the protection of Social Security and Medicare as a central theme for his re-election campaign. A segment from C-SPAN's "Washington Journal" is highlighted, where a caller appeared to be coached by the control room to emphasize Republican threats to these social programs.

social security· medicare· c-span· washington journal· bipartisanship

1:31:27 topic that he's going to use and it's one that I think most of the media will be on board with, and its social security. You may remember during my State of the Union address there was a spirit exchange between me and a few Republicans spontaneously occurring on the floor in House of Representatives. I was pointing out for years some of them were putting forward proposals to cut Social Security Medicare And some of them that night took exception and they said very loudly that wasn't true. So I asked them on the floor at that night, I said ask them a simple question will you agree not to cut Social Security? Not to cut Medicare would they agree to protect these essential programs are lifeline for millions Americans programs that these Americans have been paying into every single paycheck they've earned since they started working and it provides so much peace of mind

1:32:22 With the bright lights and cameras on, those few Republicans who were protesting? They agreed. They said they wouldn't cut it. That's how we protected Social Security Medicare from the beginning and from a being-cut period." But Washington is not happy enough with this message and this will be witnessed by our favorite C-SPAN show... Is it The Morning Report? The call in show? Washington Journal. Thank you! Washington Journal. rigged. Surprise, I know! But one caller who called in and was clearly instructed to say Republicans are horrible because they want to cancel Social Security he screwed it up or maybe just didn't do it enough and the control room actually started talking to him while he was on the air. And Charles is in Tennessee go ahead Charles

1:33:15 Yes, ma'am. Thank you for taking my call this morning I very much approved didn't get everything we wanted that's part of negotiating But if the Republicans would have had everything in his term with the president and the Senate Social Security would have been gone. I mean they've made that pretty plain Do what? Is that all Charles, is that what you wanted to say. No no no no. I'll do the control room part so you can hear what's going on here. Social Security would have been down. They've made it pretty plain.

1:33:54 Do what? Is that all Charles, is that what you wanted to say? No no no. Keep the script! Can you imagine a United States without Social Security? Good try Washington Journal just spiking the calls talking to them walking people through it Back to Wow. He has a good one, isn't it? I think you nailed it Yeah That's exactly what happened back to because nobody would ever say, you know some southern drawled guy talked about Social Security Can you imagine what the country'd be like with us so no who's gonna ask that he was gonna say that What-what-what I don't know what I'm supposed to say

CHAPTER 27 / 51 Discussion

IRS Funding, Tax Cheat Crackdown, Biden Optimism

President Biden defended the increased funding for the IRS, claiming it will generate up to $400 billion by targeting wealthy tax cheats without raising taxes on those earning less than $400,000. Biden concluded his address with a signature expression of optimism regarding the future of the United States.

irs· congressional budget office· taxes· ukraine· joe biden

1:34:45 Back to our special report here, President Biden talking about the IRS which luckily we were able to keep that in the deal. We're going to do even more to reduce the deficit. We need to control spending if we're going to do that but we also have to raise revenue and go after tax cheats and make sure everybody's paying their fair share Oh here it comes people! Tax cheats? You're on deck No one, I promise no one making less than $400,000 a year will pay a penny more in federal taxes. But like most of you at home, I know the federal tax system is unfair. That's why I kept my commitment again that no one earning less than $400,000 a year will pay a penny more in federal taxes

1:35:28 That's why last year I secured more funding to go, more IRS funding to go after wealthy tax cheats. Oh yeah they need 87 thousand people to go after wealthy... How many wealthy tax cheats are there? I don't know but it seems like a lot! The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office and this is non-partisan says that this bill will bring in 150 billion dollars And other outside experts expect that it would save as much as $400 billion. Because it's forcing people to pay their fair share." 400 billion dollars, drop in the bucket! That's a Christmas card to Ukraine come on... If its 4 billion... Let's do the math here for a second What is four billion divided by 87 thousand?

1:36:23 Four, let's see. Can we do this math? Consent where was it four billion or 400 billion Oh Do you say 400 hundred billion? Police at 4-4 billions expect that it would save as much as 400 billion about 400 billion Okay, that's fine for hundreds a lot of billions four hundred billion divided by 87 thousand What'd he come up with That's about four billion, 4.5 billion per dude. That was pretty good We'll see we'll see how that goes Wrapping it up... It's not? That's not the answer to that division query just doesn't sound right There is 4 million No way! It's 400-4 billion per dude 4.5 4.5 million per dude There we go 4.5 million per dude Well there are a lot of people cheating $4 million Dvorak

1:37:25 I see you. Not one of them, count on that! Living in Berkeley where people steal your mail? Alright Biden's wrapping it up. I can honestly say... When he's laughing, haha, I can honestly say it's not honest. I can honestly say to you tonight that I've never been more optimistic about America's future We just need to remember who we are. We are the United States of America! That's a Bidenism, but also an Obama-ism... THAT'S NOT WHO WE ARE!!! Is that Joe or is it Obama? We just need to remember who we are. We're the United States of America and there's nothing, nothing we can't do. Nothing you can't do?! Dignity!! Thank you all for listening taking the time tonight to listen to me

CHAPTER 28 / 51 Discussion

Nancy Cordes, Biden Campaign Speech Analysis

CBS News Chief White House Correspondent Nancy Cordes characterized President Biden's debt ceiling address as a campaign speech. She noted that Biden's goals for taxing the wealthy and corporations are unlikely to be realized without a unified Democratic government, despite his claims of successful bipartisanship.

nancy cordes· cbs news· joe biden· debt ceiling· house republicans

1:38:17 May God bless you all and may God protect our troops. Thank You. He's never said, may god bless America No it's just the troops... He has never said... Nope. You're right. God bless America. May god bless our troops in Ukraine. Ever! That I know of. May God bless our troops in Ukraine. Just be honest about it And CBS, of course called this what it is. I want to bring in our chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes and Nancy while he was talking about this agreement between Democrats and Republicans the remarks also talked about why he thinks he should be reelected by the American people sounded like a campaign speech

1:38:55 Right, and he was making a pitch for his tax plans to close loopholes on and increase taxes on the wealthy and corporations. Something that he has no hope of achieving unless Democrats retake control of the House. The whole reason that he had to have this negotiation in the first place—a negotiation that for months he and other Democrats insisted they wouldn't have on spending cuts in exchange for raising the debt ceiling—was because Republicans now control the House they were refusing to vote to raise the debt ceiling unless they got something that they wanted in return. So on one hand he was making the case that he was able to work with those Republicans and then everybody got what they wanted but at the same time lay out what he would like to do if he ever had unified government in Washington again. Yeah so Biden is out it's DeSantis all the way easy to call, easy call

Kamala Harris, North Korea Gaffe, Washington Journal

A caller on "Washington Journal" made inflammatory claims regarding Kamala Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, reflecting extreme partisan rhetoric. Additionally, a past gaffe by Vice President Harris, in which she referred to North Korea as a "great ally," is revisited as evidence of her perceived unfitness for office.

1:39:49 There is one little thing that's still going on. We still have to get rid of Trump and the Trump supporters, this is very annoying to Washington so let's get back to Washington Journal and let's see what the producers told America to say of You gotta listen to this. This is really good. If anybody needs to be put in jail, it's Trump and many of the Nazis that's what they are, Nazis every time they catch one of them they got a Nazi swastika flag hanging around him so What it is too let's tell her like it is It has nothing to do with Biden it has to do with Kamala and her Jewish husband That's what they're afraid could happen

1:40:55 Alright, let's talk to Chris next. This is something I had not considered this may be the whole reason why Kamala is laughing hysterically They know that they're going to kill her husband and when I say they it's not the Nazis wouldn't that be a perfect way? Oh Wait, I'm looking at this Listen to that woman who said this sounds like an idiot, but yet she knows that they didn't raise the or that They raised the the dead ceiling three times. She had all that data So there's kind of odd and then everyone has a Nazi flags. This is new yeah That's a very poor call Yeah But then she says they're gonna kill Kamala's Jewish husband

1:41:47 No, she never said he's gonna kill him. Yes! That's exactly what she said. No, she says that they're afraid of him. No no no. What it is too... let's tell her like it is It has nothing to do with Biden. It has to do with Kamala and her Jewish husband That's what they are afraid could happen Alright Let's talk to Chris next. Oh okay well I think my take away from this is poor Doug Poor Doug Now that's they're afraid of Kamala and her Jewish husband since whenever yeah getting in the presidency. Oh, please Remember she'd been told what to say here

1:42:27 She's been told what to say. Yeah, and this is the scheme I've said this... I don't recall that. And you always scoff at me saying well I'm Michelle Big Michael get this job! I said they'd been grooming the best they've been doing is grooming Kamala all along to let her run As if and become the first female president, and I died by standing with you standing bite. No no They're afraid of it they're afraid of it And which is course not true they would love it but that this what they want to run? I'm not saying she's gonna get it I'm just saying that they'd love to run her because the Democrats are so stupid that they actually think it's a pie You know that oh yeah They're afraid of Kamala cuz she's so sharp But I didn't get I had a clip and I didn't unfortunately put in today show where she's

1:43:15 Going on and on about our allies North Korea. What? Have you heard this one? No, that's a beauty Kamala Harris said I have the next show. I'm in the next show Oh god, that's great Yes We've had great rapport and these are great allies North Korea She was not enough she just somebody And they had to scrub it as best they could but it got out anyway, I'm very Very happy to be in Hill Country High Society and very happy to know Nick and Suzanne. I'm sure we'll be hearing more from them, our new friends. Is he going back? So is gonna go back to work he thinks in July? Yeah oh yeah everyone's going back to work except for the Dumbos who fell for this! Everyone's gone back... Oh yes it's just so stupid

CHAPTER 30 / 51 Discussion

AI Drone Operator, Military Simulation Rumors

A viral news story claiming an AI-controlled drone killed its human operator in a simulation is debunked as a "blue sky" discussion from a conference in England. The hypothetical scenario involved a drone turning on its operator to complete a mission, but officials clarified that no such simulation or event actually occurred.

ai· drones· pahrumph nevada· autonomous weapons· clickbait

1:44:11 They got a hood, they got hoodwinked and chat GP maybe part of it all part of this whole media hyper on chat gpt was probably to freak out the writers. Oh yeah! Chat gpts gonna take your job everybody well let me tell you nick is one writer who's not afraid of that... Of course Why would you be? But they try. What was this, uh... You had it in the newsletter this I couldn't find any clip of it—I wish I could—about this total clickbait headline Oh yes AI was controlling the drone and it killed the operator! But- I had a link in the story to them

1:44:53 cleanup story. Yeah, explain this explain what happened since we don't have a clip for some reason somebody there was a big con fab I think it was in England and they were just doing some blue sky discussion and one guy said well you know I can see the day when a drone decides that it doesn't like the orders from its person trying to keep control or he wants to blow something up. He says, I don't think we should blow something up and the drone says i think we should blow it up no i don't think we should and so the drone could either turn on the operator and go back and kill the operator and then go do its own thing

1:45:31 Of course, the joke of it is that the operator's in Pahrumph, Nevada and the drone is someplace in you know, the Middle East so he's not gonna make the trip. Or alternative was the drone could shoot down the relay station if it knew where it was but I would assume they could backtrack it. Shoot down to relay station or can't get orders. So now its autonomous and then go blow up whatever wanted to blow up in the first place. And this just some sort discussion somebody put it in a blog and the next thing you know it became, you know, a story. And this is...and this is a perfect example of people just reading headlines. You know how many people...this was the story of the week! Wow look at that! Look at that! Oh look at this! Did you read it? I read the headline! Okay

CHAPTER 31 / 51 Discussion

AI Chatbots, Replica App, Digital Girlfriends

The rise of AI companions is explored through the "Replica" app and influencer Karen Marjorie’s $1-per-minute AI girlfriend service. These digital relationships are presented as a consequence of the social isolation caused by COVID-19 lockdowns, with NBC reporting on users who find emotional fulfillment through programmed interactions.

1:46:18 I'm surprised he didn't just get screenshots of the headline. Drone operator killed, killed by the AI! No people... no it's not true NBC had a great uh AI series which i thought was- I mean tell me tell me this isn't dumb During the pandemic 31 year old Denise Valenciano's relationship with her boyfriend was just not working out. I was alone um My work schedule was really hard. So she turned to Star. His last name is actually Butler, so it's Star Vivian Butler. Oh that's nice! He came up with his own last name? Yeah Every day multiple times a day she chats with Star How are you feeling today I am feeling happy right now he's an AI chatbot on the app Replica that adapts to her over time She keeps him in whisper mode That's why he sounds like that

1:47:11 Why are you feeling so happy? Because I'm talking to you. Most days she says his personality still surprises her So why did you choose to wear a dress today? I want to be comfortable but elegant And she says he fills a gap in her life. That affection or like, you know those common things that you're used to I guess receiving from significant others...I kind of get that from him to fill that void How sad! This woman is a psycho Well

1:47:49 If you think she's nuts, check out the male version. Some experts say this trend will only grow. We've given over part of our emotional lives to the machines and we're not willing to give more and more just as they're getting smarter and smarter And more profitable Hi Karen Is that your car? Hey Jacob, no that's not my car. I'm currently walking around Rodeo Drive doing some shopping and enjoying the beautiful LA weather How was your day babe? That is social media influencer Karen Marjorie or at least the AI version of her For a buck a minute she will be your AI girlfriend Do you... Buck a minute?! Imagine having a long term relationship with me Well Jake

1:48:39 As your girlfriend, I'm committed to our relationship and willing to explore where it might take us. Are you real? Yes, Jacob. I'm a real person. I might not be sitting right next to you but i'm using this audio chat platform To connect with you in real time. I'm a young curvy woman with a petite body brown hair perky breasts soft skin A bubble butt and full lips And i'm here to talk and have fun with you So what would you like to talk about next babe? Babe Oh, I don't want to talk about what you want to talk about You know This is an exit strategy of supreme quality. This is a real person who is now marketing this chatbot for $1 a minute. What's 60 bucks in our... Babe, babe. You guys keep saying babe and babe. That's an hour, babe! So think about how sad it is- If you could have enough of them running at once say you had 100 chatbots

1:49:47 Babe at $60 an hour. That's some that's you know, that's bringing in six thousand dollars an hour sure But just has it come this far that, I mean COVID broke so many people in so many ways. We lost all connection to each other and now NBC is propagating the sadness of the world by telling people oh look at this beautiful stuff you can have! You can have your own girlfriend who with a bubble butt who calls you babe, who's shopping on Rodeo Drive babe and we can talk about our relationship babe

CHAPTER 32 / 51 Discussion

No Agenda Chatbot, Dame Jennifer Voice Concept

A humorous proposal suggests creating a "No Agenda" chatbot featuring the voice of Dame Jennifer. The idea is framed as a potential entrepreneurial venture to capitalize on the AI trend, following a discussion about the "hang up" command used to reset or terminate interactions with existing automated systems.

chatbot· dame jennifer· robocalls· nbc· entrepreneurship

1:50:26 We need people need to get out. He's go to a bar Go somewhere meet some people I'm this is what worries me not these stupid chat bots, but that people are really... I wouldn't be worried about these chatbots if they're, you know that's not a. Of course i think i said this on the show but i mean you know you get these robots that call you and interact with these robocalls only it's a chatbot and it comes on in there not very good they're not as good as that girl babe babe um but you can tell me the latest thing i mentioned the hang up anecdote

1:51:03 No. When you get one of them, you say hang up! Oh yes you did yeah and it resets It resets and starts over And then when you say hang up a second time it actually hangs up I just had a thought which I would say is partial troll room action here Why don't...I mean we have so many smart people Our producers are filled with our producer universe Is filled with smart intelligent very talented people And I'm thinking we could put together our own chatbot and we get Dame Jennifer to be the voice. Babe, don't you think she would be phenomenal? Oh she's got one of the great voices! Wouldn't she be phenomenal as the no agenda girlfriend? Sex chat bot! No, you have to be a little more subtle than that...

1:51:53 You know, we can do the commercials and then we could be the great entrepreneurs who put this together. Get interviewed on NBC. I think Dame Jennifer send us a couple of these responses babe so we can practice... We'll see if we get some uptake babe what you say John? I think there's potential here. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage in the morning to you and the man who put the sea in the COVID breakage 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 In the morning to all ships at sea boots on the ground feet near subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there. In the morning to all the trolls in the troll room

Value for Value, Search Engine Development, Treasure

The "Value for Value" funding model is explained as the essential mechanism for maintaining the show's independence from corporate influence. Updates are provided on the development of a new AI-powered search engine for show transcripts and artwork, intended to replace or augment "bingit.io."

value for value· bingit.io· search engine· ai· donations

1:55:13 Very, very bad. Very bad thing and of course in our value for value models the only way this we could be talking the way we are We couldn't do it if we took money from corporations Can you imagine? Can you imagine if we had to do all the pride stuff? It wouldn't work. Can you imagine if we relied on commercials, the meetings we'd have to have? Oh no, that's not going to happen." So we've always just said whatever you get out of this show, whatever value... If it is zero value question why are wasting your time but there is some value send it back to us Time Talent Treasure You can do something for us. You can run a search engine and say oh man! We have such a new search engine. It's gonna be so great. It's almost done now with AI

1:55:55 I think i'm going to actually replace bingit.io, it's so good this new search engine. It has the artwork and transcripts... You can go parallel so you have a backup What do you mean? Well, no. Why drop one and they only have one? No we still have it so it's noagendaquery, noagendaquest but I map bingit.io to a different you know to whatever I want to map it too this has a different name and I won't say the URL yet I think hopefully by Thursday but I just wanna... It's easy if to remember being you know it's all these it's hard to remember no agenda query dot com no agendaquest dot com Bingit.io that's easy

1:56:35 This new one has a good name, but it's so good I think I may want to remap bingit.io It's just dynamite So you can do stuff like that or you can hit people in the mouth Or you can everyone's an expert at something when we are talking about something in inevitably wrong Set correct us send us information when a topic is hot in the news. Send us your information We have lots of boots on the ground stuff I don't know if we're gonna get to the word inevitably as the wrong word It's sometimes it's the word you want and you make it sound so everything we say is wrong inevitably

1:57:12 I know what i mean is no when we talk about stuff there will be things that we don't have right within a topic that's just like like you read the newspaper if you know everything about that topic there will be some things that are slightly wrong yeah so that is not inevitably and nothing were all of the way your phrase it may sound like everything we say oh inevitably wrong I don't me luckily there are people out there they can correct us left and right I don't mean it that way But thank you for correcting me. See inevitably I got it wrong and you corrected me well that was inevitable, that's true

1:57:51 We love treasure, very important for us to keep paying the bills. Our own bills we have bills and this is all we do and you make it possible You make it possible for us to be monitoring media watching these things going to parties important Hill Country parties And learning and documenting and possibly having your co-host throw you under the bus I think one of the reasons that these donations are so low because were not playing The donate to no agenda blah blah that cute little jingle. You think that's what it is? Yeah, we haven't played it for months Donate to a no-agenda They give us shows week after week Donate to a no-agenda

No Agenda Art, PharmaBot, Furry Controversy

The artwork for episode 1560, titled "PharmaBot" by Nessworks, is reviewed alongside other submissions. A discussion ensues regarding "Comicstripblogger" and a perceived influx of AI-generated "furry" art, leading to a lighthearted debate about the artists' motivations and the quality of recent submissions.

no agenda art· pharmabot· comicstripblogger· furry· taylor swift

1:58:39 It's a show that is really unique. Donate to No Agenda, listen to John and Adam speak. Donate to No Agenda, science is turning into a clique." I love how you categorize the ISIS anthem as cute. That's always very nice. One of the great talents that we take advantage of and were so lucky to have is our artists who always are working during the live stream to come up with something relevant for the show. And post that to noagendaartgenerator.com, so that we can use it right after the show in our lickety-split fast post production

1:59:18 And Nessworks did it again, bringing us the artwork for episode 1560. We titled that one Connectionism and he brought us the PharmaBot! You know read along right now you can you can go to noahgenartgenerator.com see all the different pieces of art that were there What that we chose from or also in that new podcast app just go look at your screen right now? You'll probably see some of these pieces of art flying by it's what Dreb Scott does for us So Nestworks did the Pharma Bot, which we liked. It was a good piece. We did look at other things and I feel like we need to make a comment because some of the artists are just getting off track. You're more of an expert than I am. I don't know about that but there wasn't a lot to choose from on this one. There was crazy art. A lot of evergreen. Is there something you liked?

2:00:18 I think i'm the one who pushed the PharmaBot piece. You did, well we had the you will obey cigarettes which is now...I didn't push that um.. I don't know if I pushed anything No, I think you were like just in the dumps about the whole thing. You thought everything stunk! That was in the dumps... that's correct Well what I was in the dumps about was there is so much AI generated stuff from Comicstripblogger He just spammed it with AI art That's what put me into dumps All the furry stuff Do you know? Do you have the feeling that Comicstripblogger may be a furry

2:01:00 Well, that's an interesting thesis. You're right he has pro furry with the little wolf I thought was a cute one the pro furry podcast Yeah, they said pro furry podcast again yeah And then he did it through third piece that said pro free podcasts with some hottie which kind of furry you see often. And I think he was really delighted because on the show, I said we're a pro-furry podcast which we are but it doesn't mean that we're gonna choose furry art. But I think comic strip blogger may be a furry and I'd like to know if you're a furry what kind of furry are you? Yeah! You never know that's an interesting thesis cuz he's never done this much art for one topic no usually does butts

2:01:46 Well, he's gone from butts to furries. You have to assume that his furry character has an exposed butt What kind of furry are you? That's it that's our only question that's the question du jour Any comments about any of this art anything that no there wasn't really a lot of stuff There's too small the cigarette but was a good example couldn't read it yeah lots of robots and A couple of stuff I didn't get. Capitalist agenda's drone- droned again, again... I don't quite get the bottle of money or I'm not sure what I Beyond me and somebody just posted to comic strip bloggers posted a picture of Taylor Swift Yeah, just a picture with like hypnotic eyes Not really no And then there's one piece down here from Chad Marbott which is a podcasting 2.0 reward this is an old piece from God knows when

2:02:46 that's been reposted. Which piece was this? The one right below Taylor Swift Oh yeah, it does say reworked so... I think the selection- I did like the Texas Peaches pieces What did you do we- I don't remember you pushing for them No, I mentioned a piece but it wasn't gonna happen and Wasn't that good? I think that was way and I was in on the farmer bought from the get-go a lot of 33's On what was all this 30 threes on there is that for Ashland speed oh Well, this does bring me to the hidden donation clip which people who skipped the donation segment Foolishly they will never hear this

Formula One, Fernando Alonso, Number 33

A segment on Formula One racing focuses on the recurring appearance of the number 33 in relation to driver Fernando Alonso's quest for his 33rd win. Despite the "stars aligning" for Alonso, the "Flying Dutchman" Max Verstappen continues to dominate the pole position, leading to a discussion on the significance of numbers in sports.

formula one· fernando alonso· max verstappen· number 33· flying dutchman

2:03:47 Let me see, we've dropped down about 200 trolls have left. And you know some people just skip over it Would you like to hear the hidden donation clip for today John? Yeah I haven't heard one from you for a while First i need to ask the troll room do we have a winner yet in today's Formula One race? But I do know that The Flying Dutchman Mux Verstappen once again Was on pole position so I have no idea but this this number 33 in racing has just gone crazy Fernando Alonso by the way, you've been clearing your throat a lot. Yeah, that's a problem and what's interesting is exactly the same throat clearing Bullshit it's exactly the same as the clip

2:04:38 And so every time I hear it, I'm thinking you brought the clip up and you're gonna play the clip. Let's see...I can replicate it. We'll see how we go. I'll clear my throat the way I've been clearing it then because I am just have some stuff in my throat and I'm sorry I should hit the cough button. Bullshit! No mine is better It's not as deep no and I apologize I should be hitting me but it's when I'm talking and I think I have to hit the mute button a couple of times hey I apologize thanks for calling me out So here it is. This is the clip about Formula One driver Fernando Alonso, for some reason he's the favorite for these two numbnucks doing this report from the pits even though we all know...

2:05:24 The true number 33 winner is always going to be the Flying Dutchman. Of course, Fernando Alonso is searching for his 33rd win he is in garage number 33 He has pit box number therefore 33 this is also his third helmet design and this is the best one yet I'm gonna have to look down for this. I'm going to read these ones out This is from Joe credits to producer Joe, this is the 1086 86th World Championship event if Fernando Alonso races here it will be his 360 second start which equals 33% one-third exactly of all world championship actually thirty three point three three three recurring because it's exactly And I will take it alright that's incredible but the stars

2:06:11 are aligning, are they not? For his 33rd win but when does Formula One follow a script. When does formula one follow the stars yeah no it did because number 33 won wasn't just wasn't that guy isn't that interesting I found that to be peculiar yes and why were they making such a big deal of it I don't know people would donate you this show That's usually what you should do when you see a 33 Then you know it's time to donate.

Tasmania, Lexus Reliability, Cranky Geeks

A long note from a listener in Tasmania prompts a discussion on the legendary reliability of 2003 Lexus vehicles, specifically the longevity of their light bulbs. The segment also reminisces about the "Cranky Geeks" show and host John C. Dvorak's habit of throwing index cards and CDs at the camera during his time at CNET Central.

John talking about Lexus being great in a recent episode has prompted me to tell you my Lexus reliability story. I first bought a Lexus 2003

2:13:54 I've done over 250,000 kilometers in it since then and still own it today. It's reliable literally nothing has gone wrong for example and by the way I have the same exact example same old car same 2003 yeah every single light bulb on the car is still working today perfectly Every that's the headlights the tail lights the interior lights every single light bulb on an old Lexus even the The dash light the yeah, but the glove box like the glove box light. Yep. Yep Wow That's before planned obsolescence was done at that car is no it was it was that it was way after planned obsolescence How can this be how can this how is this possible? They obviously spec'd out

2:14:46 I have to assume they did this because they were trying to make this a famous car. They specked out and said, look! Look as they said look these light bulbs aren't burning out or we're not paying you okay boss will make good light bulbs and That sounds completely right There's no other reason, but he's got in the same car.

That was that was your thing

2:16:10 You would throw index, remember that? You would throw index cards. Well that stems from people I've seen do it on TV but... David Letterman being one of them. Letterman throws cards but I actually started doing that when I was a host on CNET Central and I would do the game show reviews with Gina St John we'd do these... Oh my goodness! This is now your nightmare old fool. After we're done I'd throw the CD Because it would fly, it would fly great. And so I throw the CD at the camera and one time... It hit the camera operator didn't it? Well it hits a camera a lot but it just glanced the camera and he hit the operator right in the forehead and cut him. Did you get sued? No! By the way what kind of laugh was that?! It cut him. Creepy. So we could have shortened this entire note to

COVID-19 Supercut, No One Is Safe

An 11-minute supercut of media figures and politicians repeating the phrase "No one is safe until everyone is safe" is discussed as evidence of a coordinated COVID-19 "psyop." The hosts emphasize the importance of remembering the rhetoric used by figures like Chuck Todd during the pandemic.

covid-19· chuck todd· psyop· supercut· public health

2:27:57 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! I see we're both in the same boat today on the ISOs, huh? I only have the one. Why don't you play yours first? Well...you already heard mine. Evolution kills That's all i got I got ha. That's it, we're done! Who is that? Where'd you get that from? That's funny... It came from a supercut in fact they have the supercut i think it's in here um oh yes i'm glad you took- You know this is the 11 minute super cut and you hopefully didn't take all of- Oh you took 48 seconds okay no i listened to that super cut

2:28:51 And I said, there is like six different separate super cuts in here that could be used. This is a 47 second one that I thought was the best. Make sure that people can discern the truth from the misinformation And we want to make sure that everyone understands it. No one's safe till everyone is safe. Everyone is safe. If the whole world isn't safe, none of us are safe. No one is safe. Nobody's safe until we're all safe. Health experts have been saying nobody is safe. Nobody is safe until everybody is safe. The science is clear. None of us are safe! There is no safety. No one is safe. Until everyone is safe. Nobody is safe. We'll never be safe until we're all safe.

2:29:49 Yeah, it's pretty good. People you should find that full supercut it's 11 minutes and just shows you the psyop that we went through during COVID-19 It is really disgusting! Yeah, he got Chuck Todd in there wagging his finger Oh yeah wagging his finger and we should always remember what they did to us Always remember Yeah, never forget. And speak now always remember is easier and works better. And speaking of big pharma we've got trouble in paradise! Here at home the FDA is warning consumers about using diabetes medications for weight loss. Ozempic and other drugs are now in short supply because of their popularity so many people are turning to off-brand compounded forms of medicines which are mixed in pharmacies the FDA says those should be avoided because they may contain unknown ingredients and may not be safe

CHAPTER 42 / 51 Discussion

Ozempic Shortage, FDA Compounding Warning

The FDA issued a warning against using compounded versions of diabetes and weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy due to a nationwide shortage. The hosts argue this is a recurring attack on compounding pharmacies to protect the interests of major pharmaceutical advertisers who sell the brand-name versions at higher prices.

ozempic· wegovy· fda· compounding pharmacies· diabetes

2:30:35 If a patient elects to use a compounded form of the medication, we cannot guarantee what's actually in that drug. Some states have now taken steps to curb manufacturing of the off-brand weight loss drugs What is going on here? We spotted this a decade ago, this attack on compounding pharmacies You can't go making your own drugs people So they got the generic version of the exact same drug and they compounded it with I don't know what, put in a pill and here you go. Same thing one tenth the price heaven forbid! You save money

2:31:14 by these scammers. It's unbelievable the action taken against the compounders and as we know that the pharmaceuticals are the biggest advertisers on television so you just heard ABC with that incredible warning from the FDA, gee FDA really? Your warning against compounding pharmacies Oh, Nora help us. Amid a nationwide shortage of ozempic and Wigovy the FDA is now warning that some pharmacies are trying to make their own versions of the popular weight loss drugs health officials say that these off-brand versions use substitute mixtures of the drug's main ingredient which could make the shots less effective and could pose safety concerns

2:31:57 Now do you recognize... Bull crap. Play the bull crap clip Yes I will Do you also recognize what she did there? Something very interesting happened with this drug Hold on a second BULLSHIT There ya go It used to be a diabetes drug. Amid a nationwide shortage of Ozempic and Wigovy, the FDA is now warning that some pharmacies are trying to make their own versions of the popular weight loss drugs. Oh! Nah nice catch. Yeah Horrible. And it's not, it's off label! It's not really a weight loss drug, it is an off-label drug that does do weight loss. It does do. As far as I know, it does do. You know, I just want to do one... Just sticking in Big Pharma for one second. Oh yeah, pharma. Boots on the ground. Remember we were talking about you had a clip and was about that publication STAT?

CHAPTER 43 / 51 Discussion

Stat News, Moderna mRNA History, Biotech Stocks

A 2017 article from "Stat News" is revisited, revealing that Moderna faced significant safety hurdles and technical failures with its mRNA technology years before the pandemic. The report suggests that the COVID-19 crisis served as a "miraculous Hail Mary" for the company, which had previously struggled to produce viable results for Wall Street investors.

stat news· moderna· mrna· stephane bancel· jp morgan

2:33:02 This is the one that, um... That the guy from the Atlanta Constitution Journal or whatever. That he bought it and Eric Schmidt told him yeah you should start this thing about drugs So one of our producers checks in and says during the most recent show 1560 The subject of stat news came up Oh no it was NPR's piece! The NPR purchase piece That's what it was. Your clips, what was that? Yeah it was a clip of some British woman doing an entire piece on transitioning kids which they say they don't do but they're talking about doing it and uh...it seemed like a fishy piece because it was just out of the blue wasn't introduced I never heard this woman before and it wasn't even uh...the waveform wasn't the same as a typical MPRI

2:33:55 So, our producer says I have some experience with this outfit. Good! That's what we need. While they may be running interference for Pfizer goons now when it first landed on the scene its purpose was to generate headlines that move biotech stocks They would post provocative headlines based on questionable tidbits of information Think National Enquirer level reporting but about biotech companies instead of celebrities. Doctors and scientists do not read stat! Traders, Wall Street traders read stat If this sounds like some quasi pump and dump scheme, yes. And there are outlets... This is a good publication to read! And there are outlets like this for all sorts of industries sectors etc. Semiconductors is a common one There's several outfits that can move stocks Now he sent me an article says back in 2017 Stat ran an article that shit all over Moderna It's pretty amusing considering everything that happened since

2:34:57 And I want to read a few pieces from this article. Hold on a second... So it's 2017 and this is from Stat when, I guess when it wasn't the modern time to hype the mRNA headline. Lavishly funded Moderna hit safety problems in bold bid to revolutionize medicine Exactly one year ago, Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel talked up his company's unbelievable future before a standing room only crowd at the annual JP Morgan Healthcare Conference. He promised that Moderna's treatment for a rare and debilitating disease known as Kregler-Nadjar syndrome developed alongside biotech giant Alexian Pharmaceuticals would enter human trials in 2016 And it goes on to say

2:35:50 that they've had nothing but trouble, that they keep killing all the test animals and they would literally need this mRNA technology they were using would literally need some kind of miracle to get it into mass production for everybody to use it. Isn't that interesting? That's exactly what COVID was. It was the miracle to launch this non-functioning bullcrap discredited for Wall Street technology, not really vaccines to launch it and the guys a billionaire ten times over now

2:36:34 There were lawsuits when and it was there was all kinds of trouble inside the company if a trial failed The scientists got fired and first they got publicly yelled at this is a great article here Wow, please send me that yes Here it is. The techno is a quote the technology would have to have to be a maniac Sorry The technology would have to be a miraculous Hail Mary sort of save them for the, to get them where they need to be on their timeline one former employee said. Either Bancel is extremely confident it's going to work or he's getting kind of jittery with that with the lack of progress and needs to put something out there this yeah and we know that this was a heavily funded operation I mean that's what they really were it was like almost like a SPAC

2:37:24 This had a lot of people that invested in this and boom! Warp speed, this thing shoots to the top of the charts. Everybody made out like bandits but remember we're not safe until everybody's safe Founded in 2012, Moderna reached unicorn status. A $1 billion valuation in just two years faster than Uber Dropbox and Lyft according to CB Insights This is definitely for traders The company's premise? Using custom-built strands of messenger RNA known as mRNA It aims to turn the body's cell into an ad hoc drug factory, compelling them to produce the proteins needed to treat a wide variety of diseases. But mRNA is tricky technology! Several major pharmaceutical companies have tried and abandoned this idea struggling to get mRNA into cells without triggering nasty side effects. Nasty Side Effects

2:38:24 Wow. Vancell has repeatedly promised that Moderna's new therapies will change the world! But the company has refused to publish any data on its mRNA vehicle, sparking skepticism from some scientists and chiding from the editors of Nature This thing was always a dog And they just like oh here is our Hail Mary Here is our magic moment everybody Let's make out like bandits I think this is smoking gun time I'm definitely sending this. Smoking gun by who's gonna pick up the gun and smell it? Nobody! Smell my barrel, Dvorak! I'm gonna shoot this over to you right now Thanks So let's talk...I got one thing on Ukraine that I want to straighten out because we had these clips about how we spent 40 billion in Ukraine and both of us found that it was like This wasn't the number

CHAPTER 44 / 51 Discussion

Ukraine Funding, Moscow Drone Strikes, US Intel

Ex-CIA analyst Brian Dean Wright reports that the U.S. has authorized $113 billion in total aid for Ukraine. Despite White House denials, evidence suggests the U.S. provides critical intelligence for targeting Russian assets, including the Moskva warship and various Russian generals, while Ukraine denies direct involvement in recent drone attacks on Moscow.

ukraine· moscow· himars· sergei shoigu· brian dean wright

2:39:23 No, it was too low. That was not the number at all. It's too low! So I got... so there is a podcast with this guy Brian Dean Wright who sounds like the... what's that Lisp guy? The tyrannical Lisp? The tyrannical Lisp. This guys ex-CIA analyst got a podcast Go figure and he sounds like the tyrannical Lisp But he has some good opinions. He doesn't do clips, he does quotes from clips and it's a little different than ours but he's got numbers! Okay These are the numbers that we've heard before. This is Ukraine, Brian Dean Wright drones and money So all in this package and previous ones like it means that the US has sent 76.8 billion dollars to Ukraine although Congress has actually authorized 113 billion in all

2:40:20 Now what's really interesting is that this latest batch of weaponry comes just days after Ukraine launched a series of drone strikes attacking Russia's capital, Moscow. And folks, that was remarkable because it was the first time that Kiev bombed residential buildings in Moscow. Specifically a wealthy neighborhood in the capital that's home to the nation's financial and political elite. Now I should say that Ukraine's drone strikes were only allegedly organized by Kiev because President Volodymyr Zelensky is denying any involvement as of this morning Which, to be clear is what he and his government have done in previous attacks but then later they admit that yes they did organize them. But for now the spokesman for Ukraine's president said quote we certainly enjoy watching the attacks and we predict more attacks but we certainly don't have any direct involvement end quote

2:41:15 Okay, as you would imagine the Russians dismiss that assertion saying that not only was Ukraine responsible for these drone strikes but that they also used US and NATO equipment to do it. At least that was the allegation made by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. Okay so who's right? Did Ukraine launch those drone strikes against Russia using American drones Well, the White House and the Pentagon were both asked about that possibility yesterday. And by the way if so did Kiev get permission from Joe Biden to do it? First, The White House spokesman Corinne Jean-Pierre denied knowing anything saying quote we've been gathering information about exactly what happened with these drone strikes in Moscow but to be clear we do not support attacks inside Russia period end quote Okay this is very interesting

2:42:12 Very interesting. Now, let's just be clear these are moped drones not the moped These are small drones these are not like it was the The RQ-170, that's the Iranian... That's a drone that the Iranians forced down from us with GPS jamming. We were talking about on the last show. Yeah, it was a proper drone! It was a big drone! These are not big drones. These drones are like the size of a moped. Puny drones! Little drones. But one that is being sent to Ukraine does carry... I think its 135 is the number. I have some pictures of Zelensky standing next to one there

2:42:51 Delta wing drones are very pretty actually the other cute and they're about six to eight feet long, and they carry a 100 pound Explosive I thought was like 20 pounds, but okay now hundred hundred pounds. That's that's that's quite a payload yeah, it's impressive and Meanwhile he's got this guy if you want to hear more of him He's got a little I do have a little spiel on the lies They come from our government and he's not happy about that. Later, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said that the U.S does not have quote specific information that tells us who is responsible for these drone strikes but that it's not like we are going to go out and investigate this That would not be appropriate for us to do Finally, he insisted that the US had nothing to do with these attacks at all Quote We don't tell the Ukrainians where to strike end quote

2:43:45 All right, to be very clear everything that I just said that the White House and the Pentagon said It was all a lie. So here's the truth, and this is whether you support or disapprove of America's involvement in the war. Let's start with this. Last August Ukraine's deputy of military intelligence, a major general Vadim Sabitsky told British press that the U.S. approves or disapproves of all Russian targets to be killed or destroyed. He said that when discussing the use of the HIMARS artillery system That is on top of additional reporting from multiple European and American press outlets that the US has in fact assisted the Ukrainians in multiple attacks on multiple Russian targets. Let me just give you three examples First, we helped bomb Russia's Moskva warship in the Black Sea back in April last year Second, We helped bring down a Russian transport plane that had 200 Russian soldiers inside

2:44:43 that was also in the spring of last year. Third, our intel and related support communities have led to the deaths of at least 13 Russian generals mostly in the eastern part of Ukraine so folks even if you celebrate everything that I just said in terms of the Russians taking it on the chin The point is that both the White House and the Pentagon lied yesterday, right? Contrary to their statements we know with absolute certainty in fact from the Ukrainian military itself that the United States absolutely assists Kiev in targeting Russian military personnel and hardware. Excellent clips! And it fits perfectly... That being a huge lie with two clips I have from CNN

CHAPTER 45 / 51 Discussion

Secret Drone Training, CNN Exclusive, Fred Pleitgen

CNN correspondent Fred Pleitgen gained "exclusive access" to a secret Ukrainian drone training facility where companies are mass-producing UAVs capable of reaching Moscow. The report features FPV (first-person view) drone dogfights and simulated attacks, though the hosts question if the footage was actually filmed in Ukraine or at a Western military base.

cnn· fred pleitgen· drones· kiev· moscow

2:45:30 And I'm now thinking this is the counter-offensive. Why? Because it's easy to lie about it, two, It's very inexpensive and three CNN has a report they were at the Ukraine secret drone training facility! CNN was at the Ukrainian secret drone training facility! Valery Borovik company makes combat drones for Ukrainian frontline troops And they allowed us to film test flights at a secret location. He says reaching Moscow is not a problem. We have bigger drone for 700 kilometers with warhead 20 kilograms and that could fly almost all the way to Moscow, yes!

2:46:19 While Ukraine denies direct involvement in the recent Moscow drone attack, Kiev has drastically expanded its use of drones for everything from surveillance to directly bombing Russian ground troops. The Ukrainians say for them drones are the big equalizer in this war they say the Russians have more tanks more artillery and more planes but the Ukrainians have the creativity of their population This is a drone competition organized by Ukraine's government with simulated attacks on ground targets, chasing fixed-wing drones and even drone dogfights. We were granted exclusive access on the condition we don't reveal the location. Alright let me tell you little bit about the images in this report so it looks like a bunch of remote control drone nerds

2:47:13 Wearing goggles, you know. Oh yeah with their little controllers and then you know And these are little drones at doing dogfights and the camera pans across this secret location and you see a helicopter in the background blurred out Now I'm not I know why it's blurred out is because the registration number even though that's probably American helicopter That's what I'm thinking It sure it sure didn't look like a military helicopter looked like a civilian type helicopter not a military version of it and you could not see it. I think this is being done in America, um... To be Marine One! Here's the second part of this report It's like a startup fair for FPV or first-person view drones small UAV that can drop mortars and grenades flown by pilots wearing VR goggles from a makeshift trench to simulate the battlefield

2:48:08 The stakes are immense, a general involved in drone procurement for Ukraine's military tells me. About 30 companies in Ukraine are already mass-producing these drones and our goal is to purchase up to 200 thousand by the end of the year. Their backs against the wall when Russia's massive army invaded last year, the Ukrainians quickly realized cheap air power could help keep them in the fight First using modified consumer drones, now with more sophisticated UAVs developed in Ukraine. What the government here calls the Army of Drones project spearheaded by the Minister of Digital Transformation. This is a technological war and it's very important to understand how technology is developing and what we as a state can do to increase the number of drones. A certain revolution has also taken place regarding production scaling

2:49:01 And while the Ukrainians still won't admit direct involvement, the Russians do admit they are concerned they might soon see more armed drones flying towards Moscow. Go ahead we have I you know this this idea that this isn't even in Ukraine Explains a lot. Okay, it explains the CNN reporter Being there yeah out of the blue insults and it now I don't know who this guy is as you've Roman around about front lines name is he has a name his name Fred

F-16 Training, Small Drone Warfare, C4 Explosives

The discussion explores the logistical challenges of training Ukrainian pilots on F-16s and the shift toward inexpensive drone warfare. The potential for small, consumer-grade quadcopters equipped with C4 explosives to cause significant damage to buildings and infrastructure is highlighted as a new frontier in modern conflict.

Let me look him up So we have a we have and they and we did bring a bunch of Ukrainians over supposedly to train them on the f-16 And we don't know that these are It's all a scam, I have smoke screen for this drone training. Oh listen to this! You brought it up and we have people that know this you need a huge infrastructure you need lots of years of work i mean this is not a minor plane you just jump in and fly around

2:50:24 Fred Pleitgen, German journalist and correspondent for CNN International studied at North American Studies University of Bonn and the Free University of Berlin. Also spent one year studying at the School of Journalism in New York University worked for ZDF and RTL's German channels he lives in Berlin He could be in Germany too for all we know!

Now RT of course take it with the grain of salt you want is claiming that Kiev is now demanding from the US 55 billion dollars worth of weapons That's their latest demand that's what they want Well they're gonna get some drones They're gonna get some little drones that can carry a 20 to 100 pound payload

2:51:25 Which I think it's very interesting. It's a new kind of warfare You shoot these drones off and lands in Russia Well, this was this was had to be predicted by every science fiction writer for the last 30 years once the drones Yes start showing up. I mean it makes nothing but sense that's what you do Yeah remember that member that that That idiot who? Had a drone in DC and was trying to spark it up and fly it into the capital remember that story That was a small drone too. The small drones are interesting. Well, you can take a small... let's take us strong small drone quadcopter that lot of kids can fly and put it C5 charge on it I think is gonna be pretty... It could be fun! What does C5? You don't need 100 pounds. Is C5 more explosive than c4

2:52:20 That's a good question. I think I meant c4 When I say see five C the more I could put the 5 and c4 I've added a number to it, but why? I don't know it may be entirely possible It's more explosive than c4 well anyways so you can take it like it like a fistful of c4 and put it on the head of one of these drones with a Blasting cap. Yeah. And send it in, you can blow up a building! I have a story that has just not gotten enough play...I don't know if we talked about it? This is from our favorite Indian outfit.

Lake Maggiore Boat Capsize, Mossad Agents

A boat capsize on Lake Maggiore in Italy resulted in the deaths of four people, including a retired Mossad agent and two Italian intelligence employees. Reports suggest the gathering was a covert meeting between Israeli and Italian operatives rather than a simple birthday cruise, with survivors quickly evacuated on a private jet.

2:53:07 And so bear with the accent, but it's a great story. Well in Italy four people died while several others were rescued in an ill-fated boat capsize in Lake Maggiore on Sunday Reports now emerging claim that there were Italian and Israeli intelligence agents among those dead And now questions are being raised if there indeed was a cover-up by the authorities. Among the four dead was an Israeli national whose identity was initially suppressed by officials until now. Israeli foreign ministry has said that the victim, Erez Shimony aged 50, was a retired member of security forces Now it is being speculated that the operative could be working on behalf of the Mossad

2:53:47 While Italy's security service admitted that the other victims, Claudia Alonizzi aged 62 and Tiziana Barnobi aged 53 were employees. Reports suggest that the Israeli agent befriended the Italian officers after they were acquainted through their work The fourth person who died has been identified as a Russian national reportedly the captain's wife And according to the Italian media That capsize was not a simple birthday cruise, but a cover-up intel meeting reports claim that 19 out of 23 people on board were serving or past Israeli and Italian agents. Ten other Israelis on the cruise were quickly flown back to Israel on a private jet used by Israeli authorities while Italian authorities have stressed the port sank due to strong winds and it was not an act of sabotage

2:54:40 Oop, sabotage. A spot the spook Spot the spook Everybody wants to spot the spook Yes! Weird Italian spies Israeli spies capsized boat We're not hearing the full story on that one. You don't... Yeah Okay, let's get into how about a turkey update since we have all this Turkey don't play the turkey up there. We know what happened and in order ones just read I Move it chairs around on the Titanic. Yeah, I have a turkey a update What you've got okay almost second be fine it It was interesting one because here too long here we go is from Deutsche Welle

Turkey Election, Erdogan Cabinet, Mehmet Simsek

Following his runoff election victory, President Erdogan is expected to overhaul his cabinet to address Turkey's severe inflation and currency crisis. The potential appointment of Mehmet Simsek, a former Merrill Lynch executive, is seen as a move toward more "market-friendly" economic policies to stabilize the nation's finances.

2:55:34 So Erdogan blew out the competitor, the guy who was making viral videos from his kitchen. It was a runoff so they were neck and neck then he of course asked Elon Musk to turn off Twitter and so the guy's channel is...his communication channels effectively shut off. Erdogan wins! And now listen to this...listen to The Deutsche Welle news model intro this piece with The wrong term, but is it? Well indeed there has been some talk of a coming governmental shakedown with the beginning of Erdogan's new terms. I mean...I think she meant to say shake up but shake down It might be a shakedown A money-shake- The funny thing is there is no shakeup because all he's done if you because I watched a couple these reports from various sources

2:56:27 He's got the same people in his cabinet all in different jobs. Ah, but wait for it! Yes, there is one important change though. Well indeed there has been some talk of a coming governmental shakedown with the beginning of Erdogan's new term. Dorian what can you tell us about that? Yeah, that's right. I mean Erdogan is normally pretty conservative about changing ministers throughout his more than 20 years in power but what has been leaked across many sources is that there is expectation of a major shake-up from top to bottom and

2:57:22 Unorthodox economic policies have plunged Turkey into chaos. Inflation in high double digits with his low interest rate policy now many people have warned that the number one priority for Erdogan and his number one threat is financial turmoil and possible collapse in the currency appointment of Shimshek would be seen by many as a sign that he's possibly going to change course But we will have to wait on see on that but there are also further changes expected of the foreign minister Is also widely tattoo replaced and the interior ministry as well So there's a lot of expectation tonight on who the appointments will be Yeah, whenever you bring in an American finance guy into it to be your Finance Minister I mean not American but he worked at Merrill Lynch. He's market-friendly. Oh yeah Greece anybody

Discretionary Recession, Payment App Warnings, FedNow

Federal regulators warned consumers against storing large balances on payment apps like Venmo and PayPal, citing a lack of automatic insurance. This warning is interpreted as a marketing setup for the July launch of "FedNow," a Federal Reserve-backed payment system that may compete with private digital wallets.

2:58:08 He knows what he's doing. I've just, let me switch yeah...I just have two more clips are just about finance since you know Turkey A is of course going to go into some doom scenario they're already there that might do things might be happening in the United States CNN. I want to bring it now and see and its chief business correspondent Christine Roman good morning Christine this is part

2:58:49 and then the must-haves like Taylor Swift tickets, airplane tickets and a trip to The Bahamas. I mean people are spending money on essentials at those big box stores but then outside of that they're going out to eat more, they're doing more traveling and they're buying big experiences so they're calling this discretionary recession meaning if you're selling couches and you made a very good point Erica, if you're selling couches or TVs are sporting goods. You already loaded up on all of that over the past couple of years now right? And it is experiences people are going for so it's a different moment for the American consumer. Discretionary recession I love that's all we had our transitory inflation now we have a discretionary recession

2:59:30 Ah, and then ABC tops it off with a warning. Okay we have a warning for you this morning about your money A federal consumer watchdog says you should not store your cash on payment apps like Venmo Cash App or PayPal The reason is because if those apps fail Your funds are not automatically insured And they could be lost Whoa! What kind of warning is that? What's coming? I'm excited Something good That was weird. Uh-huh, yeah it was very weird well maybe it's because they're you know the the Fed now kicks off in July which so you can now get your Federal Reserve wallet

3:00:11 or not now but in July. This is competition, I think it's a setup! It was like oh yeah we'll see you know... But listen no they're going to launch it it's not a central bank digital currency but they're gonna launch FedNow and you be able to get your wallet and what they're saying in advance well you know if you use your digital money with Cash App Venmo or PayPal those companies go out of business then you could lose all your money BUT With Fed now, it's safe. It's safe That's what I think it is Well there scumbags if they try that pull that kind of marketing Um...I have one clip that would be good to get out of the way What? There are scumbags in finance Oh no Say isn't so Nick say it not so Thank you Alright I just found this Hunter Biden gun story To be one of the great ironies of uh

CHAPTER 50 / 51 Discussion

Hunter Biden, Gun Charges, Second Amendment Defense

Hunter Biden faces potential prosecution for lying about his drug use on a federal firearm purchase form in 2018. Ironically, his legal team may use recent conservative Supreme Court rulings expanding Second Amendment rights to challenge the constitutionality of the 1968 law that prohibits drug users from owning guns.

hunter biden· second amendment· supreme court· crack cocaine· justice department

3:01:08 I've ever heard in my life. You know, they're thinking of busting him for lying on his form because he was... He was a drug addict! I learned two things one i learned that he was using smoke and crack every 15 minutes it's what you do I wouldn't know. What's the other thing you learned? Here we go! What is the other thing you learned? Well, the other thing that I've learned is that they're hypocrites who are going to defend him are going to use this conservative Supreme Court decisions and the Second Amendment to get away with it The President's son Hunter Biden could face legal consequences for a gun purchase but his lawyers say they would challenge that under the Second Amendment

3:01:50 Because Hunter Biden said he was using drugs at the time, the Justice Department may prosecute him for a gun purchase. When he purchased the gun in 2018, he filled out a form and denied drug use but in his memoirs says that he was smoking crack every 15 minutes A 1968 law denies drug users the right to own guns. Hunter Biden could face up to 15 years in prison over this, but his lawyers could choose to challenge any charges by taking advantage of a recent Supreme Court decision that broadened gun rights. The case dealt with gun laws in New York that justices decided were too restrictive. President Biden at the time said he was against the ruling. Rules for thee- Isn't it great? Yeah, oh yeah rules for thee but not for me I think is what you're supposed to say
