Vermox

00:00 Well now it turns out to be a complete hoax! Let me guess, Atomafuji is a sumo wrestler.

00:39 Exactly, he's leading the September tournament. Oh, oh with one two, three three matches to go I think I'm so excited for you for you. She more excited for him. He's like this is an up-and-comer He's like 21 young kid As like a second big match ever. He's like six to 400 pounds Good, good. He's really good at it. Sounds like a winner, this kid. I think he's gonna be a Yakuzuna. A Yakuzuna. Well, while we await his Yakuzunaness...

01:18 It finally happened. We finally hit the magic number. Well, the clock is ticking on House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. The Republican leader is in a race against the clock to find a deal to avoid another government shutdown. All of this has a new report claims America's national debt has topped thirty three trillion dollars. Didn't we just hit 31 trillion like two months ago or am I am I mistaken? 33 was the number two months ago. They because I remember us bringing this up once before I thought it was 32 because it went from 31 then they like it tends to go from Lower numbers to higher numbers. There's never gone the other way

02:09 Well, I'm gonna go to 34 then back to 33. Yes, here it is New York Times New York Times says it September 18th US national debt tops 33 trillion for the first time So if it's in New York Times, it must be true. Oh, yeah has to be true has to be true, man There are so many people acting today or this past week everyone acting out on the stage everyone great actors and From our Ukrainian friend to, oh man, we had so many congress people doing... I mean, it was like a beautiful show. C-SPAN was the place to be. Who cares about a writer's strike? There was so much beautiful acting going on. I loved it. All kinds of distractions. Phenomenal stuff.

02:56 Does Zelensky ever show up in Ukraine anymore? You know, we've got to talk about his outfit. Hat in hand, floating around. Now he's with the, I guess today or yesterday, he's with the U.S. Senate, all the whole Senate and he's, you know... No, today. Okay, it's today and then you know Federman's out there. They've made exceptions so he could go and run the Senate within shorts. And he said that he'll wear a suit if the Republicans get on board with the war in Ukraine. So you know that they must be very serious. This is what I mean. It's all this acting going on. But let's talk about Zelensky's outfit. Because I watched him at the United Nations. Man,

03:40 What a bunch of jamokes that is over there. Oh man, warmongers, climate change, we're boiling, we're all gonna die. No, stop, don't forget, whoever they are, they're all excellencies. Oh yeah, yes. How does that work? His Excellency Joe Biden. What is this Excellency bullcrap? They should call everybody who comes up to speak His Excellency. I'm gonna call you, we should call each other, said Your Excellency Dvorak. I was thinking about it, calling you His Excellency Adam Curry. Yes, His Excellency, the Honorable John Charles Dvorak.

04:17 The floor is yours, your excellency. Now I think it's today. Today he comes by. CBS had a report. Ukraine's president is set to visit Washington today asking for more help in the fight against Russia. With a government shutdown looming, it could be a tough sell. Tough sell! Lijia Jiang has the latest from the White House. Lijia, good morning. I love that at least they're admitting it's a sales job and he... Just for a second. Everybody is in suit and tie and everyone's got their garb on, got their flowing gowns and the whole thing. The African delegation, they've got their hats, people got their turbans. Everyone is decked out. And Zelensky comes in this olive drab short-sleeved shirt.

05:00 With, you know, with military dudes all around him. Can we stop with the, with the, with, can we get some new wardrobe in here? It's a costume. It is a total costume. He's an actor. It's a costume. Good morning to you, Anne-Marie, and good morning to everybody. President Biden and Zelensky, as you know, were just at the United Nations making their plea to more than 140 world leaders but your absolute excellencies say it right lady right today could be even tougher because some Republicans have already come out to say that they are not prepared to support Ukraine further that they believe it is time for the US to stop shelling out cash. President Biden has asked for another 24 billion dollars.

05:47 How about fixing some potholes? But this is all part of the script to get everybody all concentrated on this. Oh, like you! How about fixing some potholes? that the US has already spent. Now, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has said that he thinks this should be a standalone debate because as of right now it is weaved into that government shutdown money that you are referring to, which is called a CR, a continuing resolution to keep the government funded.

06:23 after the end of this month because the money is running out. And so right now, you know, whether there are enough votes in the House is the big question. We do know that Democrats and even Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell have been very vocal about continuing the aid for Ukraine as well as most other Senate Republicans. But if you don't have the numbers, you don't have the numbers. Of course, it will be very different to have Zelensky making that plea in person. You mean his excellency Zelensky making... why will that be any different other than, oh look the actor has come to our theater?

06:58 It's all so lame and social media is just pumped full with everybody's got an opinion, a rant, although I agree with them. We can't have this, we can't, our American cities are falling apart, and then Lindsey Graham's out there like, well if we stop, if we don't fund Ukraine, then there'll be more wars everywhere. I think it's in this clip. You almost broke into a Lindsey Graham sound. I'm getting close. I think he might be in this clip. If you allow Ukraine to be carved up. Carved up? Carved up? This is a new one. What do you mean carved up? Hold on a second.

07:36 Who's ever talked about being carved up? Does that mean... Well it's been floated around, it's in the newsletters, it's been floating around that Poland wants the Western part. Yes. And Poland is like, hey we're not gonna give any more weapons to Ukraine, we're not accepting any grain, why don't you go pound sand Ukraine? That's what, yeah, you know? Poland carving up the West, Russia carving up the East, and Biden saying it on stage, carved up! is the independence of any nation secure. The United States, together with our allies and partners around the world, will continue to stand with the brave people of Ukraine as they defend their sovereignty and territorial integrity and their freedom. It's not territorial integrity. It's territorial integrity.

08:22 So, one of the things I found interesting about that speech, Weijia, is I felt... Was that he was completely incoherent and stumbling and bumbling? Was they going to say that there CBS lady? So, one of the things I found interesting about that speech, Weijia, is I felt like he was echoing the most recent messaging that we've been hearing from Volodymyr Zelensky, which is essentially, if Ukraine falls... Gee! What a coincidence! Our president is essentially echoing what The actor from Ukraine says, I wonder why. Russia's not going to stop there. If you don't want to get involved in this conflict, trust me, if Ukraine goes away, it'll be World War III. You will be involved. But there are a lot of lawmakers that are a little concerned about the amount of spending, whether or not this is good money thrown after bad, whether this war can be won by Ukraine.

09:11 do Zelensky and President Biden need to do to convince reluctant lawmakers to vote in favor of more aid? Good question! What do they have to do? Put on a little play? Anne-Marie, I think it is going to be tough. So perhaps... Congress won't approve that big $24 billion figure. It's also hard to imagine them not approving anything, right? Because there are some Republicans who are saying, look, if we turn our backs on Ukraine now, why would any country trust us in the future? So it's not only about The ongoing war but it's about America's standing with the rest of the world. No one's gonna trust us what? That there will be suckers to be soaked for billions? Oh, but we're so trustworthy to start with. Going war but it's about America's standing with the rest of the world.

10:03 and American support overwhelmingly American voters still support Ukraine in this war and that's something I'm sure all the politicians are thinking as well. Oh really? Is that overwhelmingly so? I don't think so, Miss CBS lady, but CBS it's all set up because just now support is waning they have somehow believed that they can use that actor in this director's movie Because Sean Penn appears on CBS to talk about, you know, he just happened to be doing a documentary on this incredibly interesting actor and then all of a sudden Russia invaded. What are the chances?

10:41 It's like, it's like that just drops right in your lap. And Sean Penn, well, there's no one better to bring the message of hope for Slava Ukraine than Sean Penn. In one of the clips, Andrej Uramak, one of the top advisors to President Zelensky says to you, the US position should be stronger if the United States and Joe Biden doesn't do something now. Essentially, he says America's over. That followed with a pretty... Yeah, oh yeah, no. He's saying it's, yeah, if America doesn't help, America's over. We're over. We're over. That's what's happening. We're no good. We're just a-holes. The United States and Joe Biden doesn't do something now. Essentially, he says America's over.

11:20 Who is it that said that? In one of the clips, Andre Uramak, one of the top advisors to President Zelensky. One of the top advisors to Zelensky. You know, one of the... Oh, please. Who cares what he thinks? Well, he has a speaking role. Hello, he gets a SAG card. So he gets the minimum. He gets a SAG card, minimum wage. He says, you know, the US position should be stronger if the United States and Joe Biden doesn't do something now. Essentially, he says America's over. That followed with a pretty robust financial back. Hey, we're not going to get sick of these guys berating us after all the money we've given them. This is getting ridiculous. Hey, you're paying for this play. You might as well sit back and enjoy it. Investment by the United States, more than 50 billion dollars. Come on, it's good. Pledges of weapons. But from what I've heard you say, you think the United States isn't doing enough. Sean Penn. It is my absolute feeling that

12:16 As opposed to his feelings. Spicoli! Caution with which the United States has pledged support, which seemed in my reading of February 2022 was a like a lean on in the fear of nuclear conflict. Something I think all of us should look very carefully at and understand it. of course, is possible. And that's to be concerning. I have to be, just stop this for a second. 59 years on this planet, the amount of times I've heard is what some, if you don't do X, then nuclear war, you know, Y will happen. I've heard this so many times. Never, never has anything been, the only people who've dropped bomb nukes has been us. But since then, nothing.

13:13 And it's getting, it's tiring. It's like really, it's just, it's like, find something new, Sean. The likelihood is extremely low. Oh, okay. And as one of our witnesses in the film says, You know, are we going to let a gangster with nuclear weapons dictate the way we live? Is he talking about Biden? Wait a minute. Is he talking about Biden? Who is he talking about? Putin, I guess. Who's dictating the way we live? Apparently Putin. No. And that the Ukrainians won't let him do that.

13:53 So we have to look at the Ukrainians are protecting us from Putin. I'm so happy there. Yes, they are the front line. The front line stopping because Putin would be dictating what we do. Yes. Yes. Don't you understand? Shut up, yo. So now hold on a second. I want to harken back to the Trump era when I was at an event in the Berkeley Hills and I was actually told that Putin is running Trump. Everybody in Berkeley felt this way. Everyone knew it still that I would say if you ask Nicole Wallace on MSNBC she would still say that. Yeah, so and so this is not an unexpected thought.

14:33 But it's ludicrous. It's ludicrous. I call out this one person at this event, I said, what are you telling me that Putin is actually running the country? And she said, nobody's calling the shots. Yeah, it's his playbook. He's calling the shots. That's right. That's right. And that's why apparently Biden is, you know, he's just, I don't know. Let's listen to the rest of Sean Penn here. So I think that and that the Ukrainians won't let him do that Thank You Ukraine Slava so we have to look at the aligned aspiration of what we are as people in this countries and as governments and see that they are the embodiment of what we aspire to and we should have had f-16s air defense long-range weapons and

15:28 robustly in position long since by now. We have done such a poor job of getting long-range weapons. It's just we have not helped them at all. This is horrible. And then the truth comes out, Sean Penn. There's still an opportunity for us to do the right thing. And whether it's Republican or Democrat, whether it's President Biden's administration or not, Personally, I think that there's not only a principle win in Jew escalating this, escalating our help of them, I mean. I missed it. Okay, listen again here. I should have stumbled. For us to do the right thing, and whether it's Republican or Democrat, whether it's President Biden's administration or not,

16:12 Personally, I think that there's not only a principle win in escalating this, escalating our help of them, I think. He says it, escalating. We got to escalate this. That's what he said. I think it's a principle. We got to escalate this. That's right. We got to bomb Moscow. Bomb Moscow. Yes. He wants that. One of the people you interviewed this— Last clip. —Central Bank had said to you, World War III has begun and Ukraine is the front line. Some people look at that and say that that's just hyperbole. You seem to really believe that. I don't know. What I don't know is which central bank head said that. So in this film, which I've not seen, a central bank head said World War III has already begun. But I don't know who it was. You seem to really believe that, that there is more at stake in this conflict than just the territory in Eastern Europe.

17:10 Yeah, I don't know that I would use the same words. He by the way is one of the more impressive people I've ever met and I and I You know, I don't just know I'm a mom. Do you think was Powell couldn't been Powell? I would have said Fed chair No, it wouldn't definitely not be part of be the European Central Bank Because that's Fifi Lagarde, so it couldn't have been the European Central Bank. No, because it was a he. Was it the Ukrainian Central Bank? They have a central bank. Probably. It depends on how one means it. Very impressive guy. I'm dumping out of this. Screw this guy. He's tiring. Let's go to NBC and listen to Andrea Mitchell because she really had a great report. I think this includes our friend Lindy Hop. We have to stand up to this negative aggression today.

17:55 and deter other would-be aggressors tomorrow. In an impassioned speech, President Biden urged... Impassioned speech? Why can't... They can't even tell the truth about that. I mean, I saw the speech, you saw the speech. It was a fumbling, bumbling, like horrible... It was a disappointment. I was hoping for it to go off the rails. You know me. Yeah, they didn't jack him up. And deter other would-be aggressors... Not enough. She's just impassioned instead of incoherent? Is that what you meant, Andrea? Tomorrow. In an impassioned speech, President Biden urged world leaders to stay united behind Ukraine, warning of dire consequences if Russia's aggression goes unchecked. If we abandon the core principles of the United States to appease an aggressor, can any member state in this body feel confident that they are protected? With growing calls in the US and abroad to withhold. That's the best soundbite they could get?

18:50 Anybody in this body... Hey, I got no sound bites. Can any member of the state in this body feel confident that they are protected? With growing calls in the US and abroad to withhold additional aid to Ukraine, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, appearing in person this year to warn other leaders Russia could target them next. The goal of the present war against Ukraine is to turn our lands. our people, our lives, our resources into a weapon against you. Against the international rules-based order. Today at the UN Security Council, Zelensky will present his peace plan calling for a full Russian withdrawal and payment of reparations to rebuild his devastated country. Tomorrow Zelensky will travel to Washington to meet with President Biden at the White House and plead with Congress to continue its military support.

19:47 But Republicans are deeply divided over the Biden administration's request for an additional $24 billion for Ukraine. Where's the accountability and the money we already spent? What is the plan for victory? But the consequences of pulling the plug on Ukraine are enormous. It will lead to more war, not less. There it is. We can't pull the plug now. It'll lead to more war, not less. That logic is interesting. There's your logic. That's your logic. And now it turns out, you know, the Khan, Khan from Pakistan, we didn't really cover much of it because, you know, but Khan got kicked out. It wasn't because of, I don't know. We had something else to do, but Khan got kicked out. And now it turns out the reason it now is he prime minister Khan? Was that his title? His Excellency Khan got kicked out

20:43 because he wasn't on board was making cheap ammo for Ukraine in Pakistan at our behest. At least that is according to these clips. We're joined now by Ryan Bramley. He was going to make... Okay. So we were... We can't seem to make our own ammo anymore. Is that what we're finally concluding here? This is the real takeaway from this, all these reports. Well, so here's the worst part. So we're... When we spend billions of dollars for the war in Ukraine, Slava Ukraine, it's supposed to go to our guys. It's not supposed to go to Pakistan. So I don't know what happened there. I got to do the... Warning. Amy Goodman clip inbound. We're joined now by Ryan Grim, the Intercept's Washington bureau chief. His latest piece, co-written with Murtaza Hussain, is headlined US... Wait, hold on a second.

21:41 This is stop for a second and realize that the intercept which is an online kind of throwaway has a Washington Bureau chief, of course as if they have like, you know a ton of people and what you know There's a bureau and there's the chief of the Bureau and he's assigning this and that to different Oh, please and supposedly they got gobs and gobs of money, which I'm sure comes well They might have gobs of money, but they don't have a Washington Bureau chief. That's Whatever. Well, we have a Washington bureau chief, his excellency John C. Dvorak, the Washington bureau chief for the No Agenda Show. Might as well be. It's headlined US help Pakistan get IMF bailout with secret arms deal for Ukraine leak document show. So elaborate on this, Ryan Grimm. Talk about the significance of the arms deal and Pakistan's changing position

22:35 On the Ukraine war, in fact, it happened to be that Imran Khan was visiting with President Putin the day Russia invaded Ukraine. Absolutely. Absolutely. Absolutely! With a name like Ryan Grim, he's a spook. Come on. Ryan Grim. Russia invaded Ukraine. Absolutely. Absolutely. Infuriated Washington. I then all will be forgiven because as as Lou put it, Washington understood that Imran Khan's policy was his own policy and not the policy of Pakistan. In other words, that if somebody knew were put in place, the hope was that Pakistan would then become a key ally again of the United States in its geopolitical struggle generally, but very specifically with Ukraine and Russia.

23:41 Aha! Now, wait a minute, isn't Pakistan all in with China just to make it even more complicated? Or their war with China? Traditionally, ignoring China, Pakistan was our buddy. Yeah, and India was Russia's buddy. Right. We used to have a tennis racket made in Pakistan. And Pakistan would buy our jets and India would buy the Russian jets. Yeah. And they'd fight over Kashmir. And they'd fight over one thing or another, Kashmir being the main thing. Whatever, just Kashmir. Just fight for something. They would fight amongst themselves.

24:16 It's in the irony of course is that there's just irony everywhere with this arrangement and now we're trying to buddy up to India and Modi doesn't like this and that and Now there's some some craziness going on there or there's some clips of yet later. There's a second continue with this. This is the second part of this. And since Khan was has was removed from power, what has been Pakistan's position on the war in Ukraine? We're all in. Interestingly, the foreign office yesterday in response to our story flat out denied that they're providing any weapons for the for the war in Ukraine. Nobody believes that we're not we're not the first to kind of report on this. We're the first to confirm it. of

25:04 in Pakistan that are being used in the Ukraine war and the fact that they're operating this multi-hundred million dollar, it's over a billion by now because our data stopped last summer. The production of the munitions for the war effort makes it clear that after Khan was removed, Pakistan became a reliable ally of the United States in this war. All right, so here's the spook reporting on how a whole bunch of other spooks Kicked Khan out. You're not, you're not, that's a yeah, railroad it out. This is what we call democracy. Pakistani democracy may ultimately be a casualty of Ukraine's counter offensive. So why would the US and its allies go to such lengths for Pakistan's allegiance to, uh, uh, on Ukraine? Oh, what do you think, John? What could it be?

25:57 Why would Pakistan go through all those links? Because they're supposed to be our buddy, right? You just said it. Then do you want our jets, Pakistan? Then you got to make some bullets. I think. When the United States has a primary foreign policy objective, in particular when it's a war, everything else falls away. And that's what you're seeing in Pakistan now. And for Pakistanis, the irony is clearly not lost that the United States and is bringing together the world to stand up for the defense of democracy and sovereignty in Ukraine, meanwhile quite deliberately and openly sacrificing democracy in a country of 230 million people in Pakistan. Man, Mr. Grimm, no one buys it anymore. No one buys it, no one cares. People want their potholes fixed. I do. Yeah. You got anything else on Ukraine?

26:56 I just have the NTD report on Zelensky as just kind of a rap. No, that's worth it. This is NTD. Turning now to the war in Ukraine. Speaking before the UN Security Council today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged the organization to strip rap. Just say Zelensky. You don't have to go all out and say Kyiv and Volodymyr. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged the organization... You know she's the homegrown. Honey, I screwed it up. I feel bad. I didn't say it right. Now when I see him, I'm gonna shake his hand. He'll be like, oh, you're the lady who mispronounced my name. Oh, he's so cute. Also today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged the organization to strip Russia of its veto power.

27:41 Therefore, the UN General Assembly should be given a real power to overcome the veto. This will be the first necessary step. It is impossible to stop the war because all efforts are vetoed by the aggressor. Zelensky added that he won't accept any peace deal unless it requires Russia's complete withdrawal from Ukrainian territory. He went on to accuse the UN of a willingness to, quote, compromise with killers. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was not present for Zelensky's speech, and Zelensky left the meeting before Lavrov spoke later. The Ukrainian president is slated to be on Capitol Hill tomorrow morning. He will be meeting with the entire Senate. I hope someone stands up and just says, hey, you second-rate actor, go away. I mean, it's just all going to be this pandering, thank you, your excellency, thank you for making the dangerous trip here.

28:36 from the UN building. You know? Yeah, we wish. And meanwhile, I don't know about the rest of the world, but the United States of America was caught in the biggest... The distraction of the week on Noah's agenda, the Gold Hurl. Pay no attention to anything but this, people. It took nearly 28 hours to find it, but crews finally started picking up the pieces from the crash of one of this country's most sophisticated jet fighters. I heard a boom. I mean, it's scary to think that something landed that close to our house. The pilot of the Marine F-35 ejected Sunday afternoon just a mile from the Charleston airport.

29:24 But the plane went missing, forcing the military to tweet out an appeal for any information on its whereabouts. How does it just disappear? And how does the Pentagon ask for the public's help in finding it? It's just a huge embarrassment. The plane was one of two F-35s flying at 1,000 feet as they came into land. when something went wrong. The pilot who ejected had already been discharged from the hospital by the time the $100 million plane was found 60 miles away. David Burke is a former F-35 pilot who once commanded the same unit. It doesn't surprise you that a plane could have an emergency serious enough for the pilot to eject

30:13 and still be able to fly another 60 miles. It's a pretty rare event, but as uncommon as it might be, it's a plausible thing. Even at a thousand feet, if the nose was pitched up or moving up, the jet will fly for many miles. The F-35 is a stealth jet. Hard to track especially because its transponder was off which is standard procedure in a two-plane formation So it's very common in any lie for the wingman to secure meaning to turn off their transponder All right, so let's just first of all we have we have our own F. Navy pilots Then they all emailed me saying, oh my goodness. First of all, they emailed me all the funniest memes, the F-35 on the milk carton, you know, all of that. Here it is. The pilot... I said I could have used that one. What's that? I said I could have used that one for the newsletter. It was actually, it wasn't that good. There were a couple, I mean, there were some very funny ones. I like the one where it's for sale on eBay, you know, so some of that is good. And obviously,

31:15 The communications within our armed forces are just no good. So the fact that they put this out on social media, you know, you're just looking for it. But it was a good distraction. So most people that I saw, it was hacked. It was a hack. China hacked it. China hacked the jet. And China may have the jet. And then the funniest, that's a good one, there was another good one on telegrams like they found the pilot's wallet which means he didn't really eject. He landed it there and then the Chinese took it. Oh yeah I did see the wallet thing, that was the eye roller. Here's the general take, pilot had an emergency when he slash she, it's possible,

31:59 step through the emergency procedures that led the pilot to ejection as the only solution in the emergency procedures matrix. Maybe we should not have bought an expensive single-engine fighter jet. If the autopilot was on at the time of ejection, it's very feasible the aircraft continued on until out of gas or upset by something else, perhaps flying into a thunderstorm. RF pilots say it's more likely that the single engine flamed out. Could have been out of gas, could have just flame-outs happened, and the pilot was too low, couldn't restart it, punched out. And these things happen, you know? These things happen, but it became such a, oh, such a conspiracy. Now, accentuated by, I think, the best, Central Casting did a great job. Did you see the F-35 crash witness?

32:55 Oh, the black guy. Oh, this guy is the best. And they're in the bathroom taking a shave. And I heard a screeching, sort of between a screech and a whistle. I said, what in the world is this? And I heard a boom in my whole house. Mike says he didn't realize it was a plane at the time, so he didn't call anybody. The press thought, can it be? I said, well, this must be a meteorite coming out of space or something. And I said, well, if it's an airplane, it need to be reported. Look, the thing was flying just too low. So yesterday evening- It's too low. The helicopters out there walking, so I must keep flying around. I said, well, somebody must have robbed a banker.

33:37 Kill some people or whatever. I walked up there. He told me it was about the plane. The F-35B airplane wreckage created an extensive debris field. The wreckage is located off Old Georgetown Road. Military security is very tight with numerous red and white signs on the side of the road that read, no trespassing. This area has been designated a National Defense Area. Just to the grace of God, nobody get hurt, cuz the church right up there, about a half mile. About a mile of Old Georgetown Road will be closed for an unknown period of time. Anything man make can malfunction.

34:12 That's right. But it needs to be investigated and the public needs to know what really happened. That's right. Public needs to know what really happened. By the way, that scream he did, I mean, that was, that's just, it's so good. Goat scream. That's what I, let's, let's compare. Man, that guy is good. That guy is good. He lives in the country. He's out there in the South Carolina backwoods. I love this guy. I love him. He needs to, he needs, you know, people, Rogan, Rogan needs to get that guy on the show. Rogan. I'm gonna tell Joe, you need that guy on the show for sure. You know, the F-35 has had problems and yes, single engine, flame out at a thousand feet, you got a problem. And then the question is how far did it, I mean, we don't know anything, but boy... We don't know anything. But boy, is everybody obsessed with it. Not quite as obsessed with the national alert

35:16 which should be taking place on October 4th, I think another on October 11th. You know, we had this during President Obama's time when he was going to fire off the alert. Remember that? No. Oh, come on. It was going to be everyone's cell phone, all the television stations. Only vaguely remember because nothing in my house went off. Well, no, in fact, I recall that we were laughing that half of it didn't work at all. But it was, oh, Obama, and this is it, and they're taking over our phones. Well, there's a new one. And this was blanketing X.

35:58 There were there were entire text groups going around saying make sure whatever you do keep your phone off You should unplug your computer unplug your television because this gonna be bad It's been a warning going around that on October 4th, and if it doesn't happen on October 4th It's gonna be on October 11th at 222 Eastern the emergency broadcasting system under FEMA is going to be activated and you know this is like the high-pitched beep saying this is only a test. It's not a test. It's going to be sending these high frequency signals into cell phones, radios, TVs, the intention of activating nanoparticles including graphene oxide.

36:40 What does graphene oxide do to the human body? Well, it induces cell toxicity through plasma membrane damage, generation of reactive oxygen species and DNA damage. Any concentration above 20 micrograms per millimeter for 24 hours is considered toxic. Like, hold up, because this sounds like the movie The Cell. Israel is not happy about this and supposedly they're doing some things to stop it and maybe it will stop there, but it's going to happen in the United States. Calm down, ladies. Calm down. People were seriously freaking out about this.

37:20 Oh no, it's gonna activate the nanoparticles. If you had the vax, you're gonna die. Because the graphene oxide will immediately create toxicity in your body and you'll fall over dead. This is what they're doing. This is it. I just feel... Who comes up with this stuff? You have to assume. This is not... Who would come up with that? It just doesn't make any sense. Well, you know what it is? We've gotten to a dog bark. Yeah, there's someone at the door. We've gotten to the point where through media and M5M and alternative media, Phoebe! People just don't trust their government. And when people lose trust in the government, then everything kind of goes out the door.

38:10 But I mean like real, real loss of trust. And what's the blasé-ness about it? Like, you know... Phoebe! Phoebe, come! Come here! It's just nanoparticles. Maybe Phoebe's got a clue could be she's like daddy daddy nanoparticles are activated so there's just There is a loss of trust in government, which was actually no man I'm gonna have to play a clip so I can go deal with her. It's just triggered by lies Yes, government lies don't help but when but that you're right. That's one thing but then when we get to The complete loss of trust, then people don't... I went to the city council meeting here.

38:55 Yeah, we actually got something done. No tax increase. Good move. But the distrust and the disdain. Our mayor's a musician, you know, he's just a dude. But okay, he's the mayor, and you can just see the hatred. People hating, like, this is no good, I can see what they're doing, they're putting on a little play, which of course most of the time is true. Nowhere was this more evident than the grilling of Garland. This is another TV miniseries that played out in, this was Congress.

39:38 And I have three clips that are just dynamite. All by actors I have never really seen. These are, as far as I'm concerned, these are the newcomers. Again, we don't need, you know, SAG-AFTRA, writers, we don't need you. This is the play right here. We start off with Representative Van Drew. who is a Republican from New Jersey, used to be a Democrat, which I did not know, and he brings up the Catholic, traditional Catholic extremist memo. That is a decent clip. Garland freaks out. So this is a memo from January 23rd from the FBI's field office in Richmond, Virginia titled, interest of racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists in radical traditionalist Catholic ideology almost certainly present new mitigation opportunities.

40:33 FBI Richmond assesses the increasingly observed interest of racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists, RMVEs, in racial traditionalist Catholic ideology for opportunities for threat mitigation through the exploration of new avenues for tripwire and source development. In other words, the FBI was sending undercover agents into churches To root out these violent extremists. The actions of the DOJ are on you. The decline of Americans' trust in our federal law enforcement is on you. The political weaponization of the DOJ is on you. Attorney General, I need a simple yes or no to the following, just yes or no, because we don't have much time. Do you agree that traditional Catholics are violent extremists? Yes or no?

41:24 Let me answer what you've said in that long list of statements. I'll be happy to answer all of those. Attorney General, I control the time. I'm going to ask you to answer the questions I ask. You controlled time by asking me a substantial number of things. I didn't ask you those things. I made a statement. Attorney General, see Chair, I asked... So this has got to end. These idiots, both Democrats and Republicans do this. Yes and no, yes and no. They make a big point of it. And the guy never answers yes and no. And the time he's trying to save is wasted with the back and forth that now begins. Well, I can't answer yes or no. Well, you have to answer yes or no. And it goes, this is the most ludicrous

42:11 It's worse than like it's not even good writing. I have to say I give the right writer right back and write a room Because this isn't you know answer yes or no is I'm trying my time my I only have time so much time and the time is wasted Bitching about your time and the yes and no and the rest of it I'm sorry were you confused with this being something that is that is a real question and answer session and No, this is a script. This is a script to communicate something to the American people. I don't know what they're trying to communicate with this. I have yes go. Continue with this. This is what actually one of the better exchanges because Garland

42:55 It's all bent out of shape about it if I'm not mistaken if it's a clip There's there's a number well substantial number of things and I didn't ask you those things Attorney general through the chair. I ask you do you agree that traditional Catholics are violent extremists? I have no idea what your what the traditional means here I love that part. He's like I think about something did no that no one gave me this script how come I wasn't where's my sides? I have no idea what your what the traditional means here. Let me just go to church. May I answer your question? Yes. The idea that someone with my family background. There we go. Discriminate against any religion is

43:40 So outrageous, so absurd. Mr. Attorney General, it was your FBI that did this. It was your FBI that was sending, and we have the memos, we have the emails, were sending undercover agents into Catholic churches. Both I and the director of the FBI have said that we were appalled by that memo. So then you agree that they're not extremists? We were appalled by that memo. Are they extremists or not, Attorney General? I think that... Are they extremists or not, Attorney General? Everything in that memo is false. Are they extremists or not? I'm asking a simple question. Say no if you think that was wrong. Catholics are not extremists. No. Was anyone fired for drafting and circulating the anti-Catholic memo?

44:24 You have in front of you the inspection divisions, investigations. Just tell me yes or no, please. I don't know. We have no time. I don't know the answer to that. I don't know. Okay, not to be outdone, we have the new, the best new actress. Where has she been all my life? Victoria Spatz from Indiana and she hooks right into the The attorney general being from immigrant parents, from, was he from Belarus or something? I have no idea. I think so. Now, this congresswoman represents a district in Indiana. She was born in Ukraine and she is a Ukrainian-American. She has a dynamite look. I mean, kudos on hair and makeup for what they did with her here.

45:15 She has the perfect accent and of course because of her accent she can take it all the way to, you know, we're living under a Stasi regime. Are you aware that a lot of Americans are now afraid of being prosecuted by your department? Are you aware about that? Are you aware of that? I'm just saying, are you aware or not? By the way, she has the same script, don't let him answer, just keep buffaloing all the way through. I think that constant attacks on the department and saying that... It's not attacks. Let me give you an example. I don't know what... When you talk about January 6th, people... I'm sorry? Some people came on January 6th. There probably were some people that came on January 6th here, you know, that had bad intent. But a lot of good Americans from my district came here because they are sick and tired

46:06 and tired of this government not serving them. They came with strollers and the kids. They come with strollers and the kids. And there was chaotic situation because the problem. This this is good writing. There was chaotic situation. This is perfect because you've already forgotten she's Ukrainian. You're already like she's Russian. I mean it's good. They came with strollers and kids, and it was a chaotic situation because the proper security wasn't provided. That's a question that was answered really why. Why we debated for 45 minutes on the floor and didn't stop the debate after the people broke into the Capitol. But these people came, they were throwing the smoke bombs into the crowd with strollers with kids. People showed up, you know, FBI agent to people's houses.

46:55 You have in my district, in my town, FBI phone numbers all over the district. Please call. Call that. People are truly afraid. I just want to make sure if you're not aware that you are. problem when people are afraid of their own government. And I'll show you some other things. We're talking about justice system. I don't question, you're probably not a bad person, I don't know you, but what I'll tell you, you're in charge of the department. And people right now feel, you know, I look at I look at the Durham report and I called on defies the violations of various of millions Americans. It's like KGB. But when I read Durham reports, you have this. It's like KGB. Come on. She's good. She's doing her job. This is this. And what she's doing here is exactly what MAGA country wants to hear. But it's making people more afraid of their government. But she is highlighting this Justice Department, which seems to be quite a mess.

47:56 Quite a mess. I like when she brings in the KGB, but then the final one. Well, I've got a couple too You want to play some now and then we can do yeah, let's play I want to get where they're more My favorite one is this one. This is Garland stone walls and it's because of his usages I find fascinating Now in that video, that was your answer to a question to me two years ago. When I said how many agents or assets of the government were present on January 5th and January 6th and agitating in the crowd to go into the Capitol and how many went into the Capitol? Can you answer that now? I don't know the answer to that question. Last time, you don't know how many there were or there were none? I don't know the answer to either of those questions. If there were any, I don't know how many. I don't know whether there are any.

48:51 I think you may have just perjured yourself that you don't know that there were any. You want to say that again, that you don't know that there were any? I have no personal knowledge of this matter. I think what I said the last time- You've had two years to find out and today, by the way, that was in reference to Ray Epps and yesterday you indicted him. Isn't that a wonderful coincidence on a misdemeanor? Meanwhile, you're sending grandmas to prison. Grandma's to prison. I have a sub clip of a Garland piece but I can't see where the Garland piece is. Cash Patel was on NTD

49:36 And he's one of the best spokespersons for, I don't know who he represents actually. He's a ex-attorney. William Morris Agency, I think. Yeah, well, he's really good. I've always enjoyed him. Play these clips, this is a couple of, this is Kash Patel and going over Garland and all the fact that he's getting his tit in a ringer. And he has some nice points to make before you get your clip. Garland is firing back at congressional Republicans saying in his opening statements today, quote, I am not the president's lawyer, adding, I am not Congress's prosecutor. What's your reaction to a statement here?

50:18 No, he's just President Biden's bag man. I mean, he can say that he's not Hunter Biden's lawyer, Joe Biden's lawyer, and he can say he's not Congress's lawyer. Those are fake news headlines that CNN and The Washington Post will grab and say, look at this apolitical administrator of justice. But what you have to do is look at his testimony. coming out today where he continues to lie in Stonewall Congress. He has six congressional subpoenas for documents that he still has not provided to Congress. He's in violation of those, which is a felony contempt of Congress. He's never going to prosecute himself for that.

50:54 And how about the disinformation he continues to give Congress on whether or not people interfered with the investigation into Hunter Biden and whether he participated in it. He just refuses to answer these questions as if he is if he, the attorney general himself, is above the law he's been charged to administer. From an intellectual standpoint, yes, Kash Patel is good, but people, the people The people in America, it takes them so long to catch on to stuff. It takes years and years and years for people to finally go, Hey, wait a minute. Something's up here. Something's not right. Like that guy who saw the F-35. He's like, we deserve to know what's going on. It takes a long time and cash. It takes forever. We've been doing this show for 15 years and we've moved maybe five people. That many. Yeah.

51:46 Here's Kesh Patel finishing up. Now, I don't have more clips. He went on for a while. And I will say that he really made a good point that if Congress cared, they would throw the book at Garland for not producing the documents or even answering questions. And they could, they have their own ability to do contempt to Congress and actually jail people. And they can also take their money away, which apparently they've done in the past. which is you say you can't, you were taking so much money away from your agency if you don't do this. And they're not doing any of it, which says to me that this whole thing is what you said at the beginning. This is scripted on both sides, it's bull crap. And Cash, on that note, when it comes to Hunter Biden, Garland is saying he doesn't recollect if he spoke to the FBI during that time. Have you had personal contact with anyone at FBI headquarters about the Hunter Biden investigation?

52:45 I don't recollect the answer to that question. But- Is it possible that he wouldn't be involved given that's the president's son? Look, I get that there's a lot of things the Attorney General has going on and that come across his desk. But when you speak about the ongoing investigation of the current president of the United States, you can have Joe Biden's memory and you're going to remember that one. And so I don't believe for a second he's not involved, just like we found out that the White House and Joe Biden lied when they said they weren't involved in the Trump prosecution. The White House Counsel's Office, pursuant to the direction of President Biden, relinquished executive privilege so the DOJ could prosecute Donald Trump.

53:25 Only one man in America can relinquish that privilege, Joe Biden. And so this theme of lying and covering up. Whether you want to call it unlawful activity or corruption, the fact that the Attorney General of the United States is totally weaponized, to me, is the most dangerous thing we can see in our system of justice. Yeah, it's too intellectual. Who does he work for? No, I agree. But I want to play this sub clip from that's where Garland made this very interesting little remark. This is the Garland sub clip from that quote that was in that little piece. Listen to this. No, I don't recollect the answer to that question, but Because I forgot my lines. I don't recollect the answer to that question so he's asked the question That's good, and he says I don't recollect the answer. Yeah, well you nailed it. That's exactly right No, I don't recollect the answer to that question because we had the meeting we had the table read and

54:23 I don't recollect, I'm sorry, you got me. I don't have the answer to that, I don't recollect the answer to that question. Yeah. Now, they did bring out yet another actor I don't know. He's from Texas. Troy Nells, have you heard of this guy? N-E-H-L-S, Troy Nells? Nope. How many congressmen do we have? Lots. Over 400. And they gave him the monologue. They said, Troy, Troy, we like that little tuft of hair you got on top of your head. He's bald but he's got this cool like little swirl and when he looks down his paper you're like, whoa. Oh it looks terrible. And they said, Troy, we want you to explain the whole Burisma, Joe Biden bribery quid pro quo. Here's your script. Whatever you do, don't let Garland say anything. Just Buffalo all the way through. You'll be great. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Garland, what is a confidential human source?

55:22 Well, it's an FBI term. I don't know all the technicality, but it's... Let me define it for you. It's in your own policy here. An individual who is believed to be providing useful and credible information to the FBI from any authorized information collection activity and from whom what the FBI expects or intends to obtain additional useful and credible information in the future. And by the way, pay attention to Representative Nell's voices, his intonation, he uses his voice very effectively, a very, very skilled actor. All right, and whose identity, information, or relationship with the FBI warrants confidential handling? So these guys are individuals, you pay them $42 million a year, did you know that? The IG said you're paying these sources $42 million a year, did you know that? I know informants. It's $42 million a year.

56:12 Do you believe that they're credible, they're valuable? The FBI's using these guys, we're paying them a lot of money. Would you agree with that? I agree. Some are more credible than others. Very good. So they're credible. You're paying them a lot of money, you've got a lot of them out there. It's so good! I mean, this is a skit that is so well... And kudos to Garland, by the way. He totally got it and all those lawyers behind them. They're all kind of snickering. They you know, they're the the studio audience It was beautiful. So let me paint the picture for America hunter Biden joins Burisma in 2014 paint the picture as my very very corrupt Ukrainian energy company. He has no experience in oil and gas. He admits it. I don't have any experience I know why I'm there

56:53 voices have a dad doing I he's doing a shit yes he's doing a whole bit he has no experience in oil and gas he admits it's I don't have any experience I know why I'm there I have a dad I have with me a document called the FD 1023 have you seen this You're familiar with it? It's used by the FBI everybody in America. It's used by the FBI. It is a confidential human source reporting document dated June 2020. You're familiar with it? In this document, the FBI's confidential human source says Burisma, now the corrupt company, needed to keep Hunter on the board so everything would be okay. And according to the human source, they hired Hunter Biden to, quote, protect us through his dad for all kinds of problems. Mr. Gardlin, does that concern you?

57:42 Okay, it should I got limited time remember your sources are credible He even waits he even leaves the pause for Garland to open his mouth to the Buffalo over him. It's great clip coming clip coming Okay, it should I got limited time remember your sources are credible trustworthy on honest and valuable Are you familiar with Victor Shoken the document that you was mr.. Victor Shoken, so I got three minutes left You want me to answer that? Yeah, Victor Shoken, who is he? I don't know. Do you want me to answer that? He doesn't know who Victor Shoken is. This is the best part. I don't know a Victor Shoken. I've never heard this name. I don't read newspapers. I never listen to podcasts. I've never heard of Shoken. I've never watched TV. Shoken? TV? What's TV? The document that you're talking about. Who is Mr. Victor Shoken? Sir, I've got three minutes left.

58:32 You want me to answer that? Yeah, Victor Shulkin, who is he? I don't know. Do you want me to answer the first question? Okay, he's the prosecutor, folks. He's the prosecutor that was, he oversees all the corruption in Ukraine. We know there's corruption over there. For the American people watching, after a few months, a few months after Hunter Biden joined the Burisma board, Victor Shulkin was named prosecutor general for Ukraine to target corruption. And one of his investigations was into Burisma. In this FD 1023 document, the human source clarified that Burisma's CEO, the man in charge of Burisma said he has many text messages and recordings that show he was coerced to make such payment to ensure Victor Shulkin was fired. Matter of fact, there were 17 of them. Mr. Garland, it's clear Joe Biden wanted Shulkin fired so he would stop looking into Burisma, where Hunter was on the board. Would you agree?

59:24 All right, let's let the American people decide. Play the clip. Play the clip. And he goes to a clip. Remember going over con- He goes to the CFR clip, which you might as well play. We might as well play it because he's making his point and it's beautifully done. Convincing our team, our others too, convincing us that we should be providing for loan guarantees. I guess the 12th, 13th time to Kiev, and I was supposed to announce that there was another billion dollar loan guarantee. And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor, and they didn't. So they said they were walking out to press conference, and I said, no, I'm not going

1:00:09 we're not going to give you the billion dollars. They said, you have no authority, you're not the president. The president said, I said, call him. I said, I'm telling you, you're not getting the billion dollars. I said, you're not getting the billion, I'm going to be leaving here, I think it was what, six hours? I look at it, I said, I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor's not fired, you're not getting the money. Oh, son of a bitch. Got fired. And they put in place someone who was- So clearly, I just want to point out, Someone in the writers room is listening to no agenda because you called for this very clip not but two shows ago. Yeah, that's the clip. This is the clip. But that clip's been around for like years.

1:00:51 Obviously years and years and the right wing is always pushing this clip and for some reason the mainstream media has ignored it to this day they still ignore it. There's a minute left here. Mr. Attorney General what you just saw there was Joe Biden in his arrogance and role as the vice president in this country saying if you don't fire Shulkin the United States isn't given the 1 billion dollar loan. Why would Joe Biden say that as the vice president? Why would he say such a thing? Was it policy? Was it our policy at the time? Yes or no? It wasn't. I have documents here. Interagency Policy Committee data that... Point of information, is the gentleman ever going to let the gentleman use the question? I'm on my time. Pipe down. Saying Shulkin had made significant reforms. I'm a long-standing gentleman from Texas. Pipe down. He's made significant reforms. Shulkin did. Matter of fact, John Kerry says he was...

1:01:41 John Kerry, another guy whose kid was involved in corruption in Ukraine. He's made significant reforms. Shoken did. Matter of fact, John Kerry says he was impressive. And you know within a few months after Shokin was fired, they appoint a prosecutor that said we're not going to look into Burisma anymore. Cancel it, forget it, we're not looking into Burisma. Boom, here comes the million dollars. So Biden threatened the Ukrainian president and the prime minister. Everybody can see it, the fire Shokin or the United States won't give the billion dollars. If that is not quid pro quo, sir, what is? I will tell you what it is and America agrees with me. It's bribery and it's impeachable. Are you going to do something about it?

1:02:24 I bet you not and that's why you sir also need to be impeached. I yield back. Yes, that was a whirlwind performance. Oscar goes to. New guy, he's a new guy. Well, he's trying to, you know, Texas has always got one guy. This is the guy. Yeah. This is the guy. I need to meet him. Hey, we got some more ideas for you. You won't get a word in edgewise. Now, all of this said, there is some danger on the horizon to a degree for alternative media, you know, like podcasts, although I think we're pretty safe.

1:03:08 I figured out the Russell Brand thing. It took me, it was bugging me. Oh good. It was like, why after 16, 15, 16 years, you know, why is this happening? Why did they pop this? You know, something is going on. And the, and this is mainly a British story, although it concerns the United States as well because Russell Brand is very popular and people have come to like him. He's popular as a podcaster. Yes, people have come to like him. Now, the backdrop of this is that the online safety bill is going to be law in the UK, which allows the British government to essentially just spy on everybody all the time and it's over. Free speech is done in Britain.

1:04:01 I believe what is happening here... I believe safety. Yeah, oh yeah, the whole thing. Just the naming of the bill is fantastic. Yeah, they're always named like that. What is happening is there is an awareness now that there is, that they're losing out. They're losing out to these other platforms. When I say losing out, I mean losing average... Who's they? Mainstream media is losing out to other platforms. So they're losing advertising revenue and when I say mainstream it is YouTube specifically. Just as a quick aside, you know Google is in the middle of a antitrust lawsuit and all kinds of discovery is coming up and things like Dishler who runs the ad business

1:04:47 said Monday he believes most advertisers would move to rivals like Meta or ByteDance's TikTok if Google tried to increase prices by 15% while they were rigging the ad auctions to raise them by 5 or 10%. That's how you do it. And they said, you know, hey, we have real competition, but they didn't mention the true competition, which also involves the, you know, like the back doors, the censorship, the do what we say, which involves politics. And the main one that they're going after right now is Rumble. And they're doing it in multiple ways. And Rumble... We have to understand that when you... Who's they?

1:05:28 They, the politicians, the politicians are going after Rumble and the politicians and the news media is going after Rumble. That's they. That's they and when I say they, it is the politicians and the news media lackeys. So we have the correspondence from the Culture, Media and Sport Committee writing to the CEO of Rumble saying, I am writing concerning the serious allegations regarding Russell Brand in the context of his being a content provider on Rumble with more than 1.4 million followers. The Culture, Media and Sport Committee is raising questions with the broadcasters and production companies who previously employed Mr. Brand to examine both the culture of the industry in the past and whether that culture still prevails today. However, we are also looking at his use of social media, including on Rumble, where he issued his pre-emptive response to the accusations made against him by the Sunday Times and Channel 4's dispatches. And they're on and on and on. So would you

1:06:27 We would be grateful if you would confirm whether Mr. Brand is able to monetize his content, including his videos relating to the serious accusations against him." So they are trying, and the CEO of Rumble wrote back a letter, I'm appalled, we'll never do that. But the gauntlet has been thrown down. If you don't remove Brand, we're going to demonetize you. We're going to go after your advertisers. And it all came into view for me, listening to The News Agents podcast. I've talked about this before. The News Agents is a very, very successful podcast. It's for top journalists from the BBC, you know, the ones who have interviewed statesmen and they kind of get together like they're in the newsroom discussing stuff. Right. And they have a USA version now as well. And it's owned by Global Property. So it is a mainstream media podcast. They are all in on this.

1:07:21 Because they do their Russell Brand segment, this is right after this all breaks, do they talk about rape allegations? No, no, no, that's not interesting. This is a Global Player original podcast. Hello there you Awakening Wonders. Now this isn't the usual type of video we make on this channel where we critique, attack and undermine the news in all its corruption because in this story I am the news. That was Russell Brand on Friday night on YouTube and I think it's important to Remind our listeners that for many people, the first they ever heard about this investigation, about these sexual assault allegations, was his

1:06:27 We would be grateful if you would confirm whether Mr. Brand is able to monetize his content, including his videos relating to the serious accusations against him." So they are trying, and the CEO of Rumble wrote back a letter, I'm appalled, we'll never do that. But the gauntlet has been thrown down. If you don't remove Brand, we're going to demonetize you. We're going to go after your advertisers. And it all came into view for me, listening to The News Agents podcast. I've talked about this before. The News Agents is a very, very successful podcast.

This is a Global Player original podcast. Hello there you Awakening Wonders. Now this isn't the usual type of video we make on this channel where we critique, attack and undermine the news in all its corruption because in this story I am the news. That was Russell Brand on Friday night on YouTube and I think it's important to Remind our listeners that for many people, the first they ever heard about this investigation, about these sexual assault allegations, was his

1:08:04 pre-denial on a platform that wasn't the Sunday Times, that wasn't Channel 4, that wasn't the BBC. It was him speaking directly to his followers, his six and a half million followers. He says there that I am the news. That is true in more ways than one. Today he has been demonetised by YouTube. Content and old shows of his have been taken down by the BBC, by Channel 4. But on today's show, we're going to ask the question about whether any of that for Brand, for his reach, for the millions of people who follow him on online platforms, whether any of that really matters. Can you really cancel Russell Brand? Welcome to the News Agents.

1:08:50 So, who cares about rape? No, no, no, we don't care about that. I don't think he's been charged either. No, as far as I know, he hasn't. But it's not about rape. No, no, it's about his opinion. and monetizing his opinion. in response to him and you know the internet isn't necessarily real life but it's always to some extent a reflection of a bit of real life and it is also financially lucrative and real life you know some of the things we're with you Russell I've been wondering how long it would be until they they try to pull this card

1:09:42 with a little crying emoji. I'm with you all the way Russell. They did it to Assange. They tried it with Bernie Sanders. They did it to Corbyn. They'll try and find anyone they find a threat. And as we were talking about yesterday, this is where there is the intersection between media and this new media ecosystem and politics. and the fact that our politics on both sides of the Atlantic has taken this conspiratorial turn where players, political players, try and pretend there are kind of shadowy figures everywhere trying to undermine them. That is exactly the scene that Russell Brand is tapping into to try and exploit this moment and to try and survive this moment. This is the crux as far as I'm concerned. They realize that a lot of people, right and left,

1:10:23 are going to alternative platforms, the new media platforms as they say, this other ecosystem and they're getting a voice, they're getting traction and even demonetizing with our friendly guys because it's easy to demonetize someone on YouTube and Meta which they won't talk about. No, no, TikTok that seems to be a problem but this rumble thing, this alternative ecosystem. I think there are places that are if you like the safety net more than that, the new ecosystem to this whole idea of cancellation. So I was told yesterday that actually one of the platforms in which Russell Brand is heavily monetizing is Rumble. And it was a site that I wasn't that familiar with. Never heard of it. I'm a journalist. Why would I ever look at Rumble?

1:11:08 I look at YouTube and X it kind of tends to serve the all right it tends to like Alex Jones Steve Bannon and the sort of info wars kind of people and I was told that Russell Brown is actually getting millions from work he does there, whether it's monetized or whether they're actually just paying for him because they find people who have exactly been shut out if you like of the mainstream media or shut out of the BBC or Channel 4 or places that no longer want to work with him and say, oh right let us be your home.

1:11:43 and we will provide the following for people who don't really want to be part of that mainstream media landscape anyway. Which is not that big a problem other than, and this is the whole theme, same from the Member of Parliament, Well, he's monetizing. It's okay to be an idiot somewhere on the internet, but you're monetizing. This will not stand. Rumble has to go down. And so actually half this stuff is going on that a lot of people won't see. They won't recognize. I totally forgot about him, to be honest. Had you? I mean, in the last few years? I went on Rumble last night. Oh no! And it was really interesting. Oh, I went on Rumble. Never caught a Rumble video. It was really interesting.

1:12:27 I didn't know that he'd done the first interview with Tucker Carlson, the fired Fox News presenter. He's interviewed Ron DeSantis. You would never know that Russell Brand was so tied in to what we think of as the sort of, I don't know, the MAGA voice or the all-white American voice. And this suggests that, you know, we will happily admit we are probably missing parts of these conversations where Russell Brand is flourishing and will continue to flourish whether or not the BBC removes an episode of QI. Exactly. And that's what is, I think that's what's just so fascinating about this, which is that, yeah, I mean, I was trying to wrap my brains this morning. I had some vague sense, I think, that he had gone down this kind of anti-vax

1:13:08 kind of route and he'd become kind of more eccentric, more kooky. But I had no idea really that he was, and this is someone I like to think, right, that pretty plugged into the media, pretty close observer of the media, but not that type of media. And this is the kind of challenge to us in a way, right, is that we can all make ourselves feel better by, you know, thinking, oh, right, he's being dropped by this, that, and the other. And maybe it's not applicable to loads of people, but for someone like Brand, it doesn't matter. And in fact, not only does it not matter, arguably, it's helping it, right? They are beside themselves. They can't stand it. They can't... the whole idea that there's traction and money somewhere else that they don't control...

1:13:49 And that's completely in line with what the Washington Post did to Dave Portnoy. They're going after advertisers, which is why I've always said you can't monetize the network. Rumble will be in trouble. All these centralized systems, oh, Rumble, oh, they protect. When Rumble loses their advertisers, they will kick Russell Brand off. Or they will fold. No, they'll keep him on, he just won't be paid. But what advertiser wants to be a part of members of parliament writing letters? Advertisers are skittish. I mean, OK, totally skittish and they're very sheepish. Pearl clutching. Yeah. And ringing the worst. I mean, you have one Mike Lindell and in his company, they really, I will say, decimated in the sense of the word, as in maybe 10, 20 percent. They have they have hurt his business. And he was like the go to guy. Squarespace is not going to step up for anybody.

1:14:49 You know, any mattress company is not going to step up for anybody. They're going to be like, okay, it's a little too hot here. I've got politicians yelling at me. And the Washington Post, this is true. I mean, when you hear this, have you seen what happened? You know, Dave Portnoy from Barstool Sports. I listened to Portnoy talking to the reporter. Yes. condemning her, this woman Heil. And she was just like the weenie of the decade going on about, well, how you doing? And yeah, Portnoy is a target because he's a huge moneymaker. But the problem is, and I have a little bit of that conversation because what the Washington Post reporter did, because he's doing something called the pizza fest.

1:15:35 Whatever. So, and the Pizza Fest is sponsored by a number of sponsors. And the Washington Post, to mess with him, writes emails, and this is tabloid journalism. I've been through this exact thing. They don't interview Portnoy. They go to his sponsors and say, well how do you feel about sponsoring an event with a known misogynist? What is the Washington Post doing? I think they use the word misgenic, which is slightly different than a misogynist. What is misgenic? It means you have a general distrust of women. Oh, is there an actual... Not a hatred, but yes, there's an actual word. Misgenic? Not a hatred, but a mistrust. Because I was looking... because I thought he was just mispronouncing the word. No, no, that's a real word. Misgenic. Huh.

1:16:30 Isn't that misgenic? Okay. Well, just listen to a little bit because he calls her out on it. She lies. And this is very typical, very typical of how today's journalism is run, which is complete gutter tabloid journalism. This is how they do it. This is Emily. Hey Emily, this is Dave Portnoy calling. I'm recording you right now, but I've noticed a bunch of people, it seems like you're sending, we have this pizza fest happening on Saturday and you're reaching out to our advertisers and you're basically sending an email that says, to the effect, Dave's a misogynic racist, do you want to defend yourselves advertising at this event, right?

1:17:16 I'm sorry, what's your name Dave? I'm sorry, who are you? I'm the guy you're writing the article about, Dave Portnoy. Oh, you're Dave Portnoy. Oh, hey, how are you? Good. Hey! Good. No, I'm not... I haven't said anything like that. Well, I can read if you want. If you want, I can read what you actually sent. Can you actually find Miss Jenick in the dictionary? I can't find it. I found it. I'll get you a spell up for you. It's spelled funny. Oh, okay. But by the way, right there is an important point because he harps on this. She says, no, I didn't write anything like that. Yeah, lie. A lie. And it's a lie because then he reads from her and says, oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah. That was just one note. Listen to her reasoning. Her reasoning is even better. She's great. I haven't said anything like that.

1:18:01 Well, I can read if you want. If you want, I can read what you actually sent. I have it. Yeah, yeah, because I sent a bunch of notes so I want to make sure I know what... I sent a bunch of notes because you know I'm a journalist from the WAPO. I'm above everything and everybody. Okay, we are planning to write about the festival and how some of the sponsors and participants have drawn criticism by seemingly to associate themselves with Dave Portnoy who has a history of misogynistic comments and other problematic behavior. I want to make sure that Blank had a chance to respond to this since the company is the most prominent of their partners of this festival.

1:18:38 That's the one I sent to **** which was definitely the most pointed of them because I really did want them to respond and I was hoping to get something from them. That's what that's what tabloid journalists do. Oh, I want to get them all riled up. Yeah, I wanted to respond. It was that's why it was pointed. Okay. Because I really did want them to respond and I was hoping to get something from them. Do you think that's fair? Like, I totally disagree with the assertions of what you said that misogynistic and all that stuff. So like, it kind of backs people into a corner. So I'm happy to go over anything. I mean, you have

1:19:14 That is pretty pointed. You said you didn't do it, then I have the exact evidence of you doing it, so... I didn't say I didn't do that. I said I did. That was the one that was the most pointed. We just heard her say she didn't do it. Yeah. Before I, before I provided proof, you said you didn't really remember doing that. And then I read it to you and you're like, Oh yeah, I did it that one time. So you did do it. Um, I'm happy to talk about the comments because to me it's kind of like torturous interference. Like we're doing an event, everyone's happy about the event. Uh, you know, I've read 50 million for small business. I've held pizza, none of that. It's, Dave's misogynistic and problematic and I'm happy to talk about it because to me Nobody would like if someone's going around sending that email to their sponsors and again, you're not like questioning you're

1:20:01 It's almost like a statement of fact. This is what I am. Yeah, so I do want to talk to you about this. When were you gonna reach out? We are planning to do it tomorrow morning. And what they will do tomorrow morning is, so we've talked to a whole bunch of sponsors. They say you're misgenic, whatever that means. We need you to respond. We have a 1 p.m. deadline. That's how it works. So you're gonna write the article and then give me like I've had that a bunch people write a full article and then give me the points after. No, we're doing a bunch of reporting and we want to make sure that when we finally did talk to you we could really What interests me is she really thinks she's doing her job. She thinks she is doing journalism. She truly believes this is right, this is righteous, you're a dick.

1:20:56 We know it's true. She she really sincere is the word you're looking for you sincere. What you know or talk about things guys like this this guy's like this, you know that okay she comes in and then she's starting to you know these trying to bully her and but she's righteous. She's righteous righteous like what like it sounds like you have your opinion made of me based on that email. So look, I just want you to know that this is... I want to talk to you about... A little laugh in there. Oh God, this guy. So look, I just want you to know that this is... I want to talk to you about this, but... Don't you think you should talk to me before sending that email?

1:21:41 What I wanted to do is I wanted to talk to you when we had some specific questions for you. And so I wanted to kind of have the full idea of what we're- That's not a full idea. That's how you do journalism these days. They're going after advertisers. That's my, that's the bottom line. They're going to go after everybody's advertisers. Google is backing them. Google wants TikTok out. Google wants Rumble out. Rumble is, is, is, apparently some force that they're worried about. And in today's extreme down market, they will help.

1:22:18 I have no doubt that meta platforms will help. What can we do? Well, first, just pull the plug. Okay, we've deplatformed, but we don't really want to take them off because that'll start a ground. So no, don't worry about it. Just no money for you, brand. Okay, now we have to go to the other platforms. They're going to go after all of them and they will succeed. Advertisers will walk away from this. Yeah, most of them will. Well, not enough will stay to make it work. No, it won't make it work. The ones that stay will be stretched too thin because everybody will want their help.

1:22:58 You know, in a funny way. It's what you do. It's the way it works. In a funny way. The only way, the only way is RSS? Everybody needs their own feed creator and aggregator. We have to go back to technology from 20 years ago. It's all going to come tumbling down. And this is why we're who we are. It's who we are! You know, value for value. We got hairy legs! We got hairy legs! It's... oh man. Well before we end the whole thing about broadcasting and the old media, I dug up a clip from 1961.

1:23:46 Ooh. Well, it's when the early days of our show in 1961. I remember them well. My dad's a telescope. Yes. This is a famous, there's an archive of all these great speeches and I found this guy Norman Minow, who was the head of the FCC in 1961. And this was his vast wasteland speech. and he was giving a talk to the NAB, which was the National Association of Broadcasters. And so this is 1961, him complaining about TV mainly. He was just bitching about TV. And this is what, 62 years ago, and I would like to play this and ask people if anything's really changed.

1:24:39 But when television is bad, nothing is worse. I invite each of you to sit down in front of your own television set when your station goes on the air and stay there for a day without a book, without a magazine, without a newspaper, without a profit and loss sheet or a rating book to distract you. Keep your eyes glued to that set until the station signs off. I can assure you that what you will observe is a vast wasteland. You will see a procession of game shows, formula comedies about totally unbelievable families, blood and thunder, mayhem, violence, sadism, murder, western bad men, western good men, private eyes, gangsters, more violence and cartoons.

1:25:25 and endlessly commercials, many screaming, cajoling and offending, and most of all boredom. True, you'll see a few things you will enjoy, but they will be very, very few. And if you think I exaggerate, I only ask you to try it. Is there one person in this room who claims that broadcasting can't do better? That's a good clip to bring back, an evergreen for sure. Yeah. And the same as the doom scrolling on social media. It's exactly the same. Well, we have one thing wasn't in that clip. Men dress as women when women dress as men. They didn't have that as much back then in 1960. Yeah, they had quite a bit of it actually. Milton Berle was always coming out as a woman. Oh, well, there you go.

1:26:10 Nothing has changed. The only thing even during the 60s when you had the guy in It's the mash TV sitcom who's always dressed as a woman that clinger clinger clinger. Yes, you're right You're right. Nothing. Nothing's really new. Well, the only thing that's new is the collapse of m5m CNN their Total viewers for their weekend slate of shows including State of the Union with Jake Tapper, Dana Bash and Fareed Zakaria. Each show, how many viewers do you think each show pulled this weekend on CNN? So they got more than the asterisk.

1:26:54 I don't have a rating number. I have a total view number for them. Okay, well if they have number of music wasn't it is beyond the I would say 50,000 each 55,000 very close very close 55,000 now MTV Video Music Awards its highest rated in three years Among the 18 to 49 demographic what rating point do you think they scored? The highest in three years they got a two no one point zero three. Oh, geez 800,000 people in total tuned in to watch the award show on MTV. That's failure. That's failure now, of course, they they they're big numbers we have

1:27:44 1.8 billion minutes consumed. Yeah, this is the latest. I love this, by the way. Whoa, what adverti... You know who's eating everybody's lunch? There's only one company that is really winning with advertising and that's Amazon. Because Amazon has an advertising network that they can tie back to direct purchases of the product. Amazon is kicking everybody's ass. You can't go wrong with that technique. And they're beside themselves. They don't know what to do and it's collapsing. So more reason to support your Value for Value podcast and with that I'd like to thank you for your courage. In the morning to you, the man who put the sea in carving up Ukraine. Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, His Excellency, the Honorable John C. DeMora.

1:28:33 Well, in the morning to you Excellency, in the morning all ships, sea boots on the ground, feet in the air, subs in the water and all the dames and heights out there. In the morning to you Excellency, in the morning to the trolls in the troll room, let's have a count their hands. No trolls, how many do we have? 2,095. 2,095. We are down. We are down, but we're not out. You mean we're down? It's Thursday. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm confused. It's up! We're up! We're winning! We're winning. 200 trolls more than we expected. Hello, trolls. Thank you very much.

1:29:12 Would you like to be a troll? Everybody likes being a troll. You can be a troll by going to trollroom.io. It's a web page right there. You can log into the troll room. You can listen to No Agenda Stream, which we capture and use live on Thursdays and Sundays. Of course, it's 24 hours a day. Use a modern podcast app at newpodcastapps.com. Get an alert from Podcast Attic, from Fountain, from Podverse, you can drop right into the chat room, you can listen to the stream live, you can listen to all of your podcasts there. And because it's RSS-based and not part of some platform, there's no deplatforming. There's no way they can kick us off. They have to literally go to void zero and chop his head off.

1:29:57 That's not gonna happen anytime soon, and you won't be able to find him And for and I hate to say it, but there'll be more void zeros who pop up. They cannot stop you They cannot stop you when you're decentralized Now what also seems to be working quite? Well is our mastodon server. I mean no one else can really see it unless Unless you have your own mastodon or have a friendly mastodon server or are lucky enough to be one of the 10,000 That's noagendasocial.com where I mean none of that stuff is monetizable and guess what? There's no monetizing. It's just there for trolls to muck about. You can follow Adam at noagendasocial.com, John C. Dvorak at noagendasocial.com and troll around to your heart's content there. There's often good things there. I noticed the memes have slowed down. I think my

1:30:49 My campaign worked. No, I think the memes have slowed down. What? The memes are just no good. So... There's no advertisers to go after, which of course means the news agents will never talk about us, which means we don't get that mass market appeal. But that is so 2010, to be number one of something, to be on the home page of iTunes. We need discovery mechanisms. No, no, no. Trolls, you are the discovery mechanism. You go out, you hit people in the mouth, you tell them about the show. And we give this value to you completely free of charge. There's no levels, no premium content. Don't have to listen through advertisements. All we ask for is that you send some value back. Actually the value I appreciate the most, although it doesn't pay the bills, but what I appreciate is when people say, hey, you guys really saved my butt.

1:31:42 You know, don't you love that when people say that? Yeah, so it's pretty funny. I always like it's like, hey, you know, without you guys, dot, dot, dot. I'd be dead. Some people have said that. Basically, I'd be dead. Some people have said that, you know, or you know, or I would be in a worse situation, or I wouldn't have kept my eyes out for this. That's the kind of value in the time, talent and treasure that we like so much. We also appreciate people doing things, creating jingles, boots on the ground reports, clips. We have so many people who do so much for us, and it's the only way that it works because we don't have...

1:32:18 Rumble money. We just don't have brand money. No, instead you bring it to us. You help us do that as producers. No one here is a listener. You are only a producer of the best podcast in the universe. Now typically we get a lot of value from our artists and I would say it's only once in a blue moon. Unfortunately, I jinxed it by talking about it. We had to resort to an evergreen for the artwork for episode 1591 titled Half Jacked. That's hyphenated. I think it's interesting that Paul Couture took the evergreen and put it on the right page in the section for the art. Well, because he's providing tremendous value with the noagendaartgenerator.com service. I mean, there's no denying that. Space Cat had done this a while back. I'm going to say that might have been during Valentine Day.

1:31:42 You know, don't you love that when people say that? Yeah, so it's pretty funny. I always like it's like, hey, you know, without you guys, dot, dot, dot. I'd be dead. Some people have said that. Basically, I'd be dead. Some people have said that, you know, or you know, or I would be in a worse situation, or I wouldn't have kept my eyes out for this. That's the kind of value in the time, talent and treasure that we like so much. We also appreciate people doing things, creating jingles, boots on the ground reports, clips. We have so many people who do so much for us, and it's the only way that it works because we don't have...

1:32:18 Rumble money. We just don't have brand money. No, instead you bring it to us. You help us do that as producers. No one here is a listener. You are only a producer of the best podcast in the universe. Now typically we get a lot of value from our artists and I would say it's only once in a blue moon. Unfortunately, I jinxed it by talking about it. We had to resort to an evergreen for the artwork for episode 1591 titled Half Jacked. That's hyphenated. I think it's interesting that Paul Couture took the evergreen and put it on the right page in the section for the art. Well, because he's providing tremendous value with the noagendaartgenerator.com service. I mean, there's no denying that. Space Cat had done this a while back. I'm going to say that might have been during Valentine Day.

1:33:16 Uh, yeah, but maybe two years ago. That long ago? I kind of- That is an old piece. Let me see. It's possible. No, because SpaceCat hasn't started submitting since May 1st, 2022. Yeah, so... No, I don't think it was last February then. But we could not... Okay, here's the main thing. I go to the noagendaartgenerator.com webpage. Now when you go to noagendaartgenerator.com, the first thing you see is the standing, the ranking, which is fun. There's important updates, all kinds of information. Then you go into submitted art.

1:33:57 The past couple of months, the minute I see this page, all I see is AI. Now it's not all AI, but the majority is just people sitting at home doing AI stuff. Mostly AI. Mostly. And it's boring. I mean, we looked at this... Well, you have a theory that you... I do? Or we both have the theory, which is that... No, I think this is yours. The AI is keeping real artists from submitting anything. Right, because people see some beautiful piece and think, oh, well, I mean, they're well done, but they're not. They're not winners. They don't have the X factor by far. I mean, it was so bad you went like, yeah, how about that? No agenda target logo from dirty Jersey or the one I picked for the newsletter. That was the best one.

1:34:49 Yeah, that's what I thought. I just thought it was so plain. I mean, can we have something? It was dull. It was like a classic evergreen type piece of art that just doesn't say anything, doesn't have any... I don't know. But the giveaway... We talked about archery, it would make more sense, but it was pretty. The giveaway is when people take a picture of a person and then, you know, like, do this with Russell Brand! Now they're telling AI what to do. Now, Gus Knott, Scafia, Scafa, Scefa, he is not doing AI, but he's doing a style that we already did once and we even told them like, this is once in a- It's called surfer magazine art. Yeah, it's like once in a blue moon we'll do that, but we just did a piece like this. Yeah, it's also, it's kind of surfer magazine art cross-dressing with

1:35:48 Kind of a kidnapping note. Yeah, and it's not bad, but it's no it's nice But it's not we're not gonna pick this for another for a year Exactly. It's just I allies exactly. It would be like picking a cheesecake every single show right now and and and also we don't do that I mean you talk a big game, but we don't do it all the stuff that has hippie dippy colors like we know what you're doing, but it's crowding out the true artists and And I think it's been a severe degradation. And I think, yes, just look at the names. Where are our classic artists? Well, Sirnet Ned gave it a try, but you know, just didn't quite hit it with the no agenda lifesavers. Although I understand what he's trying to do. But you know, like we're lifesavers, but it's just like,

1:36:42 I don't know what that was. 33 flavors, you know, it's kind of been kind of done. And then Dame Kenny Ben, outstanding artist, shows us a butt. Does she really think we're going to show, we're going to put a butt as artwork? I didn't even look at who did that. I just assumed. Dame Kenny Ben, she's good. I just assumed it was Comet Strip Blogger. Well, Comet Strip Blogger should be banned. Look at what he's all, it's all Comet Strip Blogger. All the Russell Brand stuff. And I think that pollutes it and people go like, whatever. They'll never see the subtlety of my beautiful art. You're saying comic strip blogger is a polluter. He's an art polluter. Yes, he's an art polluter. Contact me. Yeah, no, this was a bad selection. It was... I do have a follow-up for our donation segment, you know, correct the record. Also, the something something topic for dummies books, we've also done that so many times.

1:37:44 So he said contacting the IRS for dummies? It was a chuckle. But yes, we've done way too many dummies books and that wasn't one of the best presentations of it. I had a follow up from our producers who had been targeted by the IRS AI system and they just wanted to say, of course, I have, you can get a hold of the IRS. Of course you get a hold of someone, but this is a part of their automated under-reporter system, which is a real thing. I have certainly talked to people at the IRS. They literally cannot help you. First, they don't even appear to understand basic accounting. They cannot and will not put me in touch with the department that runs the system. All they are authorized to do is put a note in the account and hope that someone in the office in Philly reads the note.

1:38:36 Even if I went down to the nearest IRS office, they are powerless to do anything about the case because it resides within the AUR department, where you can only interface through the mail. Mailing them documents, which I've sent them two boxes, seems to result in them not reading the document, sending me another letter saying I owe 10 times my annual revenue and taxes. So there is frustration, and I got a lot of people with similar problems. Time to talk to your congressman. Yeah, that guy from Texas. That guy from Texas is the go-to guy. That's the guy you want. Yes, and your congressman should be doing something about it for sure. So while it was a best of, evergreen, we do want to thank Space Cat and we look forward to, let me see what we have now, let me just take a, looks like people are doing some more creative stuff here.

1:39:34 for today. But Comicstripblogger polluting again. Polluting. Polluting. He's a polluter. Love him, but what a polluter. So we'll see. We'll see what... We like the concepts. We like when people do smart things. You know, when people look at the art and go, oh man, that makes so much sense. Oh, that's funny. I can't wait to hear that episode. That's what we're looking for. Wouldn't you say? Yep. I would say that's probably as a summary as good as summaries go. All right, so we'll see how they do for today's episode. But thank you everyone who tried. Thank you, ComicstripBlogger, for trying. But try and limit it, you know, limit it to something your best piece. Yeah, one good one. Yeah, one good one. Now, don't, when you do three Russell brands, that tells me you're just like hitting the regenerate, you know. I have this stuff. I got it running at home now. I find, I got AI,

1:40:28 I got I got 11 large language models. They all they all suck. So what are you using it to write or what are you using it for? You can use it for art. I have one for a model for creating art. So I did like, you know, what is it? What brand? Yeah, well, the name of the model I would have to give you. It's not a brand. So I have all the land. Somebody's got to do the software. It has to have a company name. No, it doesn't. No, that's not. You have a big database. It's just sitting there random. No, you have the large language model. You have the large model. And these are all open source. I've told you this is the open source all this, which is why it's a joke. No, I have. Let me tell you which ones we have. We have

1:41:15 The Mythomax L213B, that one seems to be reasonable. But you know, it's all horrible here. The Noose Hermes Lama 2. We've got the Hermes Lama 27B, the Dolphin Lama 27B, Samantha 11 Lama 7B, Code Lama 7B Instruct, Marks 3BV2, Griffin 3B. John, it all is lame. It sucks. It's no better than Lisp and C++. It's not outstanding. It's a big scam. It doesn't work well. You know what it does? It actually, if you say, find something in scripture about this topic, it does a pretty decent job.

1:41:56 Because they're biblical. Yeah, I mean there's so many there's so much written so many Bibles That are available open source. It's kind of an open source product That were out of a marred, you know what I mean it works if that works pretty well, but everything else it it lies it Hallucinates it's just wrong. It's wrong. And if you have it write something, oh my god, I Any professional writer rolls their eyes at this flowery language. I like to write wine reviews that probably do the job of these wine reviewers that like to go on and on and on about weird stuff. Oh, that's a good idea. I'll do a wine review with my AI and I'll read it to you on the next show. I'm sure it'll be a winner. I'm sure you'll laugh your ass off.

1:42:48 And we have some AI stuff coming up later. But first, let's thank the people who brought us the treasure in our value for value model, which means we get to pay some bills. We kick it off with our top executive producer, Paso Robles. No, I'm sorry. That's the town. We kick it off with James Jackson from Paso Robles, California. $1,000 instant night? What is what is going on here? There's no note. I have no note from him. I got no note. Hold on. Let me see. I think Jay sent something. I don't know. She talked about David the next one. No, that's the same. So we have nothing from him? No, we got nothing. Oh, man. Send us a note. Let us know in the meantime. Thank you very much. Here's a double karma. Double up. We've got karma.

1:43:32 So we end up with David from Scottsdale, Arizona. There's a note about him. She made a mistake calling it line two. It was line two on her sheet. Adam and John, thanks for what you do. I noticed that 100 shows have already passed since my last donation, $14.92. Columbus sailed the ocean blue. I thought I'd better write a note this time because last time John kept calling out repeatedly, is David there? Do we have a note from David? Hello, David? Yes, David. Well, if that technique generates a thousand dollars, I should do it more often. This should make me a baronet. I'll investigate getting my ring.

1:44:14 Chase going to get a night him first and then upgrade it okay, so all right So we do not do the nighting before the upgrade you got it, so we reverse the order no jingles and stuff Thanks, David from Scottsdale PS. I have a slightly used f-35. I'm trying to sell if you know anyone interested Anyway, he came in with a thousand dollars. Thank you, David. Mark Minitaglio, Minitaglio, Mark Minitaglio, Corpus Christi, Texas. Just a bit down the road. 333.33. I asked you to dedouche me on my first donation, so I have nothing else to say.

1:44:52 I love that, Mark. Thank you. That's a perfect note. Good. Love it. This came in as his first donation. D-Douche McKenzie. You've been D-Douched. Chris Osterhus in Cincinnati, Ohio I'm sure is pronounced slightly differently. No jingles. No karma. That's nice. This is a bar mo and a donation Barnhardt to Moe facts and no agenda most savage 45 episodes a must listen Red slash blue tie Trump. Well, that's that's old The red tie is supposed to be this what I forgot I don't know if Mo mentions this but there was a big now I think he's defunct or passed away comedian

1:45:41 whose name is eluding me, black guy, that said the bread-tied Trump was the real Trump, the other one is the second, which brought me to my second best podcast in the universe. As a traditional Latin mass Catholic, Ann's podcasts are Catholic moonshine and eternally relevant. Any show with Nurse Claire or Dr. Beep are certainly medically relevant. I've always looked for Dr. Beep. Chris Overhughes in Cincinnati, Ohio. It's 33333. Barnhart Donation. We'll give him that. Since it started with a barnhart. Yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. It's on the tip of my tongue. I can't remember it either.

1:46:24 It'll come to me. Sir tar heel is in Leland, North Carolina 333 33 John Adam I have been on a month sub for 10 years at $10 I have had numerous 33 triggers lately reminding me to kick in some executive producer love After getting back to 33 and 133 ordering up Gregory day dick Gregory. Thank you. He may still be alive I don't know. I don't think so. Hmm After getting back to 33 and 133 order number post-it notes from Culver's drive-thru, I had to pitch in. This also bumps me to Baronet. I would like an F cancer and retirement karma. After 23 years with the largest dredging company in the US, I need to spend more time with my family, following multiple friends and colleagues, dropping dead from cancer, and or massive heart attacks. That's not good. Luckily, well you know what? You got to stay active when you retire.

1:47:19 That's the trick. Yeah, no puttering. Immediately start doing something active. Luckily I was able to get by with force J&J instead of mRNA. They see he's pointing the finger. My best friend just dropped dead from stage 4 colon cancer at 49. Then within weeks my grandfather died from a sudden onset stage 4 bone cancer in his spine. Not sure how many people have to drop dead around us from heart attacks and turbo cancer before someone has to answer for it. Thank you ever 20 years from now. Thank you for all your deconstructions over the years and look forward to more sanity inducing hours of content Add a JCD donate donate ghostly version. Yes, of course That's one of that's that chime that chime that really that programs people's brains

1:48:19 You can read the next one, it's blowing out my spreadsheet, the note's too long. Anonymous Spirit from Tomahawk, Wisconsin, 33328. Anonymous Spirit of the Northwoods here, been too long since the last donation, but a birthday switcheroo for my first human resource, the Barbarista. Hold on a second, just let me put that in here. The Barbarista. Okay, right, the Barbarista has been switcherooed. It's good reason as any add him to the birthday list as he turned 28 on the 17th the switch What are you drinking? I heard gone to us it was on sale at Costco Topo Chico Oh a Texas favorite Topo Chico is double. It's Duke. It's over carbonated. That's what we like it We like to burp a lot. Yeah, it makes you burp a lot does you know? It's like people will come into our house and say you want something to drink And you see you want some water. Yeah, you got Topo. Oh

1:49:15 Topo. Topo. Can we call it a topo? Yeah, I bet you do. Don't call it a topo. This switcheroo takes him two-thirds of the way to knighthood and if he cracks open his wallet and spends some of that tax-free tip money, he could get his title and ring before me. The competition is on. Been really wanting to send the boots on the ground regarding working for a Euro company in the US and all the wokeness and aggressive venture capital lean management craziness that abounds. Boots on the ground. You guys are spot on in terms of your take on the Japanese lean management stuff and it's interesting to see how they've turned it from a tool to flip a company into a tool to squeeze the last drops of blood out of US companies as interest rates rise, service on debt squeezes and M&A opportunities subside. Yep.

1:50:01 It's all over. There you go. Now is likely the worst time in all of history to work for a large corporation and I feel bad for the young people because I see it getting a lot worse before it gets better. Glad I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Well, that's kind of, you kind of contradict yourself there. Thanks for all you do, no jingles, but jobs, Karma, because I hate mine. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You suck, Karma. I'm sorry, I forgot the F-cancer for Sir Tarheel. Let me do that.

The influx of orders with the ITM 33 promo code has been very uplifting. Along with our amazing gummies, we have been concocting something else here in the lab. A scheme to ruin your exit plan. Okay, alright, how's that going to work? For those that stick around for the donation segment, we will change the promo code to DUCKIT22. That's DUCKIT with a D. D-U-C-K-I-T 22 with a 22% discount.

We only need to exercise caution on the transaction, so we are in the process of listing them on StarHillHemp.com. Anyone may ask for them directly by emailing us at info at StarHillHemp.com and we will set up a straw purchase. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. This doesn't sound legal.

Bob Dobalina in San Diego, California.

1:53:18 It's Dabolina. John, I sent an email regarding Nashville's town hall regarding guns as public health emergency and infectious disease. Yes, I did get that. It's very interesting. And a new report that calls human remains found at Catholic schools in Canada a hoax. Be well guys. Now, I will mention this. You remember that story from a few years back? I should read this email. I have to dig it up. I'll maybe read it later. That, you know, they found the Catholic, a bunch of Catholic schools had a bunch of dead native, native Canadians, you know, indigenous Canadians. They found them. They dug them up. The pope came over and everyone's apologizing left and right. Well, now it turns out to be a complete hoax, including the pope got hoaxed. Everybody got hoaxed. A pope hoax.

1:54:06 And so they, no one's covering this part of it, of the hoax, because it's like, oh, geez, we got embarrassed. Because everyone's all over, let's burn the Catholics because they killed these kids. It's all bull crap. Well, who did? Who came up with the hoax? There were never bones there in the first place. He says it was all a phony determination by ground penetrating radar. Oh, even better! Send me a copy of that. I want to read that. I'll send it to you. I'll try it. If I dig it up, I'll read it on the show later. By the way, this is great for the donation segment. This really spices up the whole program. Appreciate that, Mr. Bob Dabolina.

1:54:50 Lee is in Green Bay, Wisconsin 223.23. He's our first associate executive producer and this donation qualifies him for knighthood he says. I wish to be dubbed Sir Vicks of the long position. Yeah, I guess he invests in the Vicks. Is that an ETF, the VIX? Is that what that's called? No, no. Well, it's kind of the VIX is really just a it's a creation. It is a creation that reflects volatility in the market. So it doesn't even exist. It's like Bitcoin is kind of just like Bitcoin. It's just like Bitcoin. Thank you for clearing that up. It's very similar.

1:55:28 How is Bitcoin, how is the VIX different from money? Doesn't money not exist either? I mean, isn't that just... I can hold a bill I don't want to put in my mouth. She said. Okay. Anyone's venison and vermux? What's vermux? I don't know what vermox is. I have no idea. Vermouth I know, but vermox? I don't believe you. Well, we'll taste it later. That'll be at the round table for you. Hope to see everybody at the Green Bay Meetup this Saturday at Jill's Bar, 3 p.m. Note forthcoming. We look forward to it, Lee. Thank you.

2:17:53 Always a seed man. Have we used that before? No, it's new as far as that. What's his name? It's a seed man ISO. Yeah, it's a seed man. Well, maybe this one. It's almost mind-blowing. That's a good one. Okay, I've got starting with unfortunately, I didn't have ISO. I got you so you so Texas things. Things in Texas suck. No, no, I veto that. That's just not going to happen. No, no. Uh, let's go with I got the vast wasteland. Mmm. A vast wasteland. Yeah, decent. Decent. It's not as good as Amy. No. Let's go out outrageous. It's so outrageous. Mm-hmm.

2:18:39 And last is destroy. Destroy New York City. Although funny? No. I think we go with Amy. Amy was good. You don't get Amy saying that kind of stuff. Let me hear her again. Let me hear. Just to make sure. It's almost mind-blowing. Mind-blowing. Yeah, that's definitely a good clip. We got Amy. So I went and took your advice and watched The Morning Show. Oh my God. How bad was it? Well, I didn't think it was as bad as you thought it was. Oh, are you kidding me? The writing was horrible. Jennifer Aniston has ruined her face with whatever she's done and then they bring in Jon Hamm? It's atrocious. It's a desperation, but I did get three clips. Oh, no. Wait. This was not the... If I had known you were going to get a clip, I would have... Here's my problem.

2:19:31 To do a television show about a news program that's doing news about what is currently news, i.e. Ukraine, COVID, etc., is very difficult and they fail as far as I'm concerned. They fail. Well, I would say it's hard to do that sort of thing because it's not evergreen. And these things get old fast. They don't go into distribution. Nobody wants to watch them after, you know. Apple should be ashamed of themselves. And I'm no longer Team Jen. So I didn't know you ever were. Well, you're either Team Jen or Team Taylor? Yeah, of course. Of course, it was Tata. Team Tata.

2:20:10 So there's a couple so I got some clips knowing what you were you were complaining about the woke writing and I got three clips that kind of Epitomize it and let's start with this is the MS of these three clips. Ah, this is this is what you oh you see You don't want me peeking on your clip. So you just I'll just call it MS So he doesn't like listen to a morning show MS. It makes sense. Yeah, sure. Here's jabs jab six On January 6th, 2021, our democracy hung in the balance. We watched on television screens as violence broke out at our most revered institution. But Bradley Jackson didn't watch.

2:20:50 Bradley was there. Oh, yeah She was there. She was reporting on her cell phone from inside the Capitol Yeah, she's not in jail then I Can't believe you're doing this. So here's another one. This is a abortion talk You should try to get some sleep 120 abortion clinics in Texas. How many do you think are fake? I don't know like 30 according to this article 100 100 clinics routinely lie to pregnant women about how far along they are So that they think they're too too late to terminate the pregnancy I mean, they'll be three weeks along and they'll tell them that they're eight weeks because the cutoff is six weeks Wow It's fucked up. That's I mean, it's really horrifying. Yeah, but

2:21:38 Where is this coming from right now? Are you spinning? You read numbers like this. It's insane. It just pisses me off. You go to your doctor, you don't want to be lied to. I agree. We all agree. Things in Texas suck. Lots of things. But maybe we just, like, I don't know, look forward to the barbecue. So they're on a private jet while this dialogue is taking place. And I have never heard this. Do you think they completely made this up? It could be. It's a fictional show. Yeah, but I mean, they're definitely and it's not a thing used to live in Austin. But this anti-Texas stuff, I thought the anti-Texas stuff finished off with this particular my last clip. I'm not going to bore people stiff with this, but this is just too much for me. This is the one that it's an eye roller. This is the Texas heat clip.

2:22:31 Wow. Oh my god. Could it be any hotter? Yeah. It's only March. Welcome to the future, man. Look at this thing. I couldn't hear it. I remember. Okay, well she comes out of the plane in March. She's all could it be any hotter? It's not that hot in Texas in March, but okay. Could it be any hotter? And the guy says with of course again, do you write the music's too loud? The guy says, Oh, get used to the future. Yeah. Climate change. It is. The show is atrocious. They shouldn't have even done a second series. I liked the third.

2:23:07 I know, but the second was iffy. Oh, the second one I couldn't watch. So this was after the show talked. This is how John and I have nothing to discuss. Where I say, hey, I watched the morning show. It's crap. And John says, oh yeah, I watched the Barbie movie. Hey, guess what I didn't watch, John? I did not watch the Barbie movie. I'll bring a clip for the Barbie movie on the Sunday show. The Barbie movie, okay, the Barbie movie in my... I couldn't get past nine minutes of it. That's what you said. So that is automatic disqualification. We're not going to watch it here in Texas. But I will say this and I've said it to you before, art director and set designers, Oscars. Yeah, sure. Of course.

2:23:50 They really went out of their way. But the thing starts off, it pretty much tells you at the beginning that it's a commercial for Mattel and it just plugs every Mattel product they have and it's just, it's lame. It's a lame movie. Who was it? Is it Ryan, what's his name? Brian no Ryan's yes one of these guys gosling is it is it no it's Ryan Reynolds what's his name I think I don't know it's one of the right it's one of the Ryan's a Ryan you know you know what would have made it a winner they should have gone with Zelensky Zelensky as Ken would have been good I would have what gosling I think it is too short Zelensky is only five what five two

2:24:30 Ah, all right. I have something of more interest because it's time, it's time, here we go. And improve our preparedness for a potential cyber pandemic. Clorox says a cyber attack has left the company facing supply shortages, according to a government filing. The company detected a breach last month. The source remains unclear. Clorox has not said which of its brands are being affected. And the recent cyber attack? against MGM resorts is reportedly costing the company up to eight million dollars per day. Reports say some operations, including the payment of gambling winnings, were still being affected yesterday. What do you think will be next? What next? Now we're affecting people's lives. They've always said you've got to infect Facebook or X or something like that. You've got to infect something that people were... TikTok.

2:25:21 Well, we're assuming that these are criminals and they're doing it to make money. Yeah, it's pretty hard to top doing it to the casinos. How about Clorox though? And what does that even mean? If it affects the Clorox thing sounds less like a ransomware thing than it's just some sort of screw up. Yeah, something broke down. But they've always been pretty savvy technology wise. So I don't know what happened to Clorox. It's not like a I don't know. I don't get the Clorox thing either. Here's a weird report. Very weird report. I have the weirdest story that I don't know if you know about it, about the Canada versus India thing. Yes, I've read about it. I have read about it. I don't know much about it. So I'm glad you have something. Here's a clip.

2:26:13 Okay, Canada versus India. Odd story. The situation between India and Canada is becoming more tense. India is now telling its citizens to practice utmost caution when traveling to America's neighbor to the north. New Delhi is telling Indians to be cautious because of growing anti-India activities and politically condoned hate crimes in Canada. The Canadian Public Safety Minister responded saying Canada is just conducting an appropriate criminal investigation. The country is investigating if India was involved in an assassination in June. A leading Sikh activist and Canadian citizen was gunned down in British Columbia.

2:25:21 Well, we're assuming that these are criminals and they're doing it to make money. Yeah, it's pretty hard to top doing it to the casinos. How about Clorox though? And what does that even mean? If it affects the Clorox thing sounds less like a ransomware thing than it's just some sort of screw up. Yeah, something broke down. But they've always been pretty savvy technology wise. So I don't know what happened to Clorox. It's not like a I don't know. I don't get the Clorox thing either. Here's a weird report. Very weird report. I have the weirdest story that I don't know if you know about it, about the Canada versus India thing. Yes, I've read about it. I have read about it. I don't know much about it. So I'm glad you have something. Here's a clip.

2:26:13 Okay, Canada versus India. Odd story. The situation between India and Canada is becoming more tense. India is now telling its citizens to practice utmost caution when traveling to America's neighbor to the north. New Delhi is telling Indians to be cautious because of growing anti-India activities and politically condoned hate crimes in Canada. The Canadian Public Safety Minister responded saying Canada is just conducting an appropriate criminal investigation. The country is investigating if India was involved in an assassination in June. A leading Sikh activist and Canadian citizen was gunned down in British Columbia.

2:26:54 He was working on an unofficial referendum vote and DIA has long accused him of links to terrorism. Just this week, both India and Canada expelled diplomats from their respective countries. Yeah, that's weird. I mean, yeah, and they got all they're all bent out of shape and the diplomats have been kicked out of both countries. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, but you know, I don't think you can have I mean, we don't like it when some foreign agent comes over and shoots one of their own. No, it's not done in diplomatic circles. It's considered improper.

2:27:31 Now the Russians poisoning people in England, you know these these expats I do like what what what Trudeau is on now because you know, of course in the socialist country of Kanakistan They have all kinds of problems, they have the same inflation issues we have and you know, then we have to blame somebody so Trudeau decided to blame the supermarkets. It's not okay. It's not okay he says. Our biggest grocery stores are making record profits while Canadians are struggling to put food on the table. So Minister Champagne will be calling on the heads of large grocers to come to Ottawa with a plan to address the rising cost of food.

2:28:16 And we expect to hear from them by Thanksgiving on what their plan is to stabilize prices. And let me be very clear, if their plan doesn't provide real relief for the middle class and people working hard to join it, then we will take further action and we are not ruling anything out, including tax measures. So won't that just jack the prices up even further? Oh yeah, that makes it worse. This is price control. Price control. This is typical.

2:28:55 Price controls never work and especially in a capitalist system. It screws things up royally and this guy's just a big screw-up. Did you notice this thing? He's introduced a new term. He was complaining about some protests going on, but you know, especially about the people protesting what's going on in the schools. Yes, the million person march, yes. And so he says these people are just transphobic. Yeah, homophobic. And homophobic, and a new term, which I think is just giving it away for what he is, biphobic. No.

2:29:33 Yes, he said bi-phobic. Bi-phobic. Bi-phobic. How do you, how do you, bi-phobic? Maybe, you know, he's a bisexual leader. Yeah, we know what he is. Yes. Or if that. And he, so he's decided to make biphobia some sort of a thing when it's not. Back to the grocery store, Chicago has taken it one step further though. Since, you know, everyone's leaving. Just like San Francisco, all stores are leaving Chicago. No one wants to operate there. It's a mess. You just get robbed. So now Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson will explore the possibility of a city-owned grocery store. Oh, to talk about socialism. Yes! We're better than Canada now. A better, stronger, safer future is one where our youth and our communities have access to the tools and resources they need to thrive.

2:30:30 My administration people know how hard it is to run grocery stores. It's one of the hardest bits like not as bad as the restaurant business, but pretty close You run a razor thin margins, you know what food lines That's what you're gonna get food lines people standing in line for toilet paper Chicago. Yeah, that's right. This it's not right. It's it's not right. I Yeah, well, Vermox, Vermox. Yes. Is that the roundtable? Yes. Vermox. It's an it's an anti worm medication prevents newly hatched insect larvae worms from growing or multiplying in your body. Beautiful. I don't know if you saw this, but now Sam Bankman Freed's parents are being sued

2:31:26 for millions in misappropriated funds. Have you seen his mom coming out of the courthouse? Oh my God. I didn't see anything recently, but she's a terror. Just do freed courthouse and look at her. So as it turns out, they coerced this kid, and I'll just call him a kid and an autist, into sending them tens of millions of dollars, putting them on salary as advisors. His dad even sent, you know, all of it is all coming out in Discovery now. And these are the two Stanford economic professors. Yeah. You know, just to show you how corrupt this whole thing is. And she then funneled millions of dollars to the Mind the Gap

2:32:22 Super PAC which she's created and it looks like Keith Richards That's being that's being unkind to Keith They funneled over $20 million to Democrats. So direct connection. Stanford. Yeah. Direct connection from FTX through the parents, you know, to the Silicon Valley, you know, super PAC, which includes all the typical douchebags. I mean, these people should all go to jail for this. I mean, I agree. They should. It really is. It really is egregious what they've done.

2:33:09 Um, let's see. Oh yes, well I do have a couple things that I'd like to mention. Actually, I have a couple clips. First, let's do some political stuff. Bobby the Op back in the news had a fundraiser, $2.2 million in one night, not bad. Who was the superstar performer on deck? Eric Clapton. Hi Robert, hi everybody. I just wanted to say I'm looking forward to seeing you soon at this gig for truth, unity, peace. and posterity with the Kennedy team. I'll see you soon. Bye. Yeah, go Kennedy team. Well, you know, he was a virus, a vaccine injured. Yes, we know. Almost lost his ability to play the guitar. He actually lost it for a while, but he got it back.

2:34:00 And Ted Cruz, normally I wouldn't play anything from the Ted Cruz podcast, but he laid out a couple of possibilities should Joe not be available. And here's the first, these are short clips, but they're worth listening to. So there are two scenarios in which Joe Biden is not the nominee, I believe. Number one, the powers that be in the Democrat Party convince Joe Biden to pull out. If that happens, I think it's a free for all. I think a bunch of people get in. I think the top four Democrats who get in are Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, Gavin Newsom, and Elizabeth Warren. And I think all four of them get in. I think Gretchen Whitmer probably gets in as well. I think there are some others that get in. I think you probably get five to ten candidates who jump in. The instant Biden is out. Now, in my view, the top tier are the first four I listed.

2:34:52 And I think in that primary, I believe Elizabeth Warren wins that primary. Interesting take. Let's listen to the Elizabeth Warren gambit according to Senator Cruz. That's scenario one. Elizabeth Warren comes out of a wide open real Democrat primary. Now, the thing about it is you're running out of time. So I'll give you some deadlines. October 16th is the filing deadline for major party candidates in Nevada. November 10th. is the filing deadline for major party candidates out Alabama. November 14th is the filing deadline for major party candidates in Arkansas. So we're starting to get to filing deadlines where it becomes exceedingly difficult to get on the ballot. And so if this scenario happens, it has to happen fast.

2:35:38 Well, even Ted doesn't think that's gonna happen. There's a second scenario. Here it comes. And this scenario I think is more likely and a heck of a lot more dangerous, which is fast forward to to next year. Fast forward to the Democrat National Convention, it's going to be in Chicago, Illinois, and it is August 19th through 22nd. If we get to August of next year, and number one, Biden's mental diminishment has gotten even worse, and it becomes obvious to anyone that he can't find his shoes. And Democrats decide, okay, all of this downside is really worrying us.

2:36:14 Then the convention is the opportunity to parachute someone in. You parachute someone in by having some story that for health reasons Biden's not able to continue. What do they do then? Well, the natural thing to say would be okay, it'll be one of those top four. And here's the problem, whoever they pick is a problem. They pick Kamala Harris. She's the vice president in some ways, the natural choice. All of the downsides of Kamala Harris make that a really dangerous choice. If they pick Gavin Newsom, that makes some California Democrats happy. The problem is you're replacing an African American woman in the Democrat Party with a very rich white guy. You wanna talk about a recipe for discontent, that's a big problem. They could go with Pete Buttigieg, another white guy.

2:37:01 Rich liberals would really like Pete Buttigieg and a lot of the Democrat donors are gay and lesbian. That's a major chunk of the funding stream for a Democrat candidate. But you have the same problem. If you jettison an African American woman who's vice president for a white guy in the Democrat primary, you're really asking for trouble. And option four is Elizabeth Warren. But you have the same, everyone else who doesn't get it, I think anyone they go with As a coronation, it's different than an open primary where Warren wins because primary voters vote for. That gives an element of legitimacy that the people who don't win can live with. If it's just the kingmakers saying, no, we pick you, whoever doesn't get picked, everybody

2:37:48 Everyone else is pissed. So here's the scenario that I think is perhaps most likely and most dangerous. In August of 2024, the Democrat kingmakers jettisoned Joe Biden and parachute in Michelle Obama. It's like a shaggy dog story you pulled off. So Michelle Obama, number one, you don't infuriate. African American women, which is a critical part of the constituency that Democrats are relying on to win. But number two, you avoid the problem if you pick from any of the four, the other three are pissed because they're all to some extent peers, they're rivals, they're all jabbing knives at each other. Michelle Obama, because she was first lady, has the ability to kind of

2:38:33 parachute in above all four and say, hey, we're not picking among any of you. You guys can all fight it out next time. You're all going to be on the same level. We're coming. This is the Obamas saving the day. And I think in terms of a solution that unifies Democrats, there ain't nothing like that. He's not a dummy. So I'm just saying. Something to do with Texas water. It would be funnier if he said, Big Mike 2024, but he won't do that. You know, that may explain why they're just letting good old Joe hobble along. Well, definitely Joe did put a poison pill in place with Kamala Harris. Yes. Very smart. Very astute. Very well done. Very astute. Just astute.

2:39:29 We have a little bit of insight into the AI meeting. You know, the smartest people on the planet all got together in a secret meeting with the Senate, with Schumer and Warner, and we had a chat and we're going to save the world. Thank you, Elon. Thank you, Sundar. Thank you. Who else do we have? Gates was there. Thank you, Bill. Thank you. Thank you. I think Cook was there. Tom Collins? I don't think he was there. I don't think he has an AI play. He probably feels above those guys. Anyway, Mark Warner, that's probably true no matter what. Mark Warner is a Democrat senator from Virginia.

2:40:16 And it's kind of what we expected. a How much of a risk is this to our upcoming election? It's an enormous risk. Enormous risk. Oh my God, China's going, if it's not Russia, it's China. And artificial intelligence. I've spent as much time on this, I think, as any member of the Senate. Which means you don't know crap.

2:41:15 Figure out how to make this thing work. It doesn't work. It's no good. And I never spent something where the more time I spend in certain ways, the more confused I get. Well, that we believe. The whole economics around these large language models, which used to be, you know, who had the most data, who had the most compute power would win. That fundamentally changed after Facebook released its so-called llama model into the wild. He's saying the truth is here. Facebook released the llama models into the wild and I actually I don't know why they did it but I'm appreciative because now even I can sit at home and can see that it doesn't work. It's no good. It's completely bogus. Yeah, maybe you can have a bigger computer get the answer faster but it's still the same models. It's not impressive. That fundamentally changed after Facebook released its so-called llama model into the wild in the spring.

2:42:11 We just had a major session, the leaders who were put together had the kind of the who's who in the room. And what I'm concerned at is even the AI leaders who say they want rules, guardrails, I'm concerned that when you actually put words on paper, Will those major tech companies support that? Because you've seen we in social media have done zero. Now in terms of China, China is a major player in AI and where I think we ought to start is by getting rid of TikTok. Where AI tools, whether it comes from China or domestically, could have the most immediate effect would be the public's faith in our elections. Which Microsoft just cited. Hear me out on this. But the other area beyond elections is faith in our public markets. These same tools could completely disrupt the confidence in our public markets by using these same deepfake tools. So I believe we ought to start, if we could put together an alliance.

2:43:10 They changed from simple AI to deepfake. Well, yeah, this is why. They're all over the map. So they'll lose trust in our elections because of deepfakes. Okay, that'll really work. I mean, oh my God, we'll be fooled for eight seconds. Yeah, or... It's like that. Really, eight seconds. Oh, but then our public markets, what are we talking about now? What is AI? The public markets are already AI. They're all algos. All trading is algorithmic. There's almost the poor saps who are on stock twits.

2:43:46 They're fighting against algorithms. It's already like this. I don't know what he's talking about. Between the capitalists and the small d Democrats, we might at least get guardrails coming in next year with the elections and with the concern about our markets. When I hear guardrails of the markets thing, that must just be a red herring. When I hear guardrails, that means we want to control what is being said. We want to control. They're in this censorship. That's what the whole thing is. Yes, we want to control what Google results are. We want to control what social media shows. You're concerned not just about spooking, you know, the stock market. We're talking about misleading people going into an election. Spooking the stock market? This is so weird. In the same breath, spooking the stock market? Wait a minute. Is this a signal?

2:44:36 But the stock market's going to get spooked? That there's a crash coming for some reason and then they can blame it on China AI? It's going to be hard to pull off. We're talking about misleading people going into an election. Congress isn't going to legislate ahead of the election. I think this is the most difficult thing we've ever understood. This is why the notion of trying to solve it all, the bias questions, the whole question around deepfakes, the questions around... What questions are there around deepfakes? At what point has a deepfake actually caused market disruption or an election issue? Can you name one? I haven't heard of it. I can't name one. No, of course not. What's called hallucination where you get answers that have no relationship to what the question was asked? Yeah, it means... To what? The hallucination, you can call it hallucination. We just call it suck.

2:45:28 But we ought to at least start with some guardrails around trust in our public elections and trust in our public markets. There I think we can move before our elections. I think it'll be bipartisan. Let's start on that framing point. I think we can all agree there could be huge disruption in both of those areas. And that's where I'm focused my time. So then the interest on CBS, then the interview goes in a slightly different direction, which I think may show some of the concern from this Democrat senator. You may have heard our CBS polling there at the top of the program. And one of the data points I want to show you here says when people compare their finances now to how they were before the pandemic, by two to one, they say they're worse, not better.

2:46:13 And when they feel worse, they tell us they're voting for Donald Trump. Whoa! So let's just say, I don't know, like the markets are going down and China used the deep fakes and then that would get Trump to be elected or something? What are we doing here, lady? How can President Biden win over those voters? Well, I think we've seen from President Biden's actual record Record amounts of job growth coming again after COVID. We've seen major legislation, there's now law in infrastructure and the so-called chip spill and transition in our energy economy. And most of that has only been about 10 cents on every dollar spent out. So I think the positive effects of that will really continue to penetrate this-. Do the people in Virginia feel that that you talked to? I think there is

2:46:59 a general feeling, oh my gosh, everybody seems to be at each other's throats here in Washington. The notion that we're going to potentially go into a government shutdown, Mike Turner and I work very closely together. But I do think, I wish the House leadership would be spending a little more time on what would happen with a government shutdown, which makes us look bad around the world. And frankly, in a state like mine in Virginia, where we have so many government workers, government contractors, it will be a disaster. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I just thought it was interesting to go from the AI into when the mark, when people's, when the economy is bad, people vote for Trump. That was very strange. Isn't that weird? That's a weird little twist. Especially CBS, us telling them maybe that's a code for, okay, we got, Trump's been read in, he's one of us now, we can safely put him in office. He's good to go. As good as possible.

2:47:52 Oh man, I have an important update. Don't call it a comeback. That's right, COVID is back. But is it COVID? What is it? Can we tell what it is? Oh no, NBC, help us. When it comes to COVID, doctors say it's becoming harder to determine whether someone actually has it. What? I've got thousands of these packs of home tests. What? When it comes to COVID, doctors say it's becoming harder to determine whether someone actually has it. That's because the virus symptoms often overlap with allergies, a cold, or other respiratory illnesses. What? What happened to the test? What happened to the test? Doctors can't tell if you have COVID anymore? Joining us now is NBC News health reporter, Aria Bendix. Aria, I do recall earlier in the pandemic when people got COVID, it was you're losing your sense of smell, right? And taste. What are the symptoms like now? Yeah, so the most common symptoms are the ones that we commonly associate with other respiratory illnesses. So that might be sore throat, congestion, sneezing. Some people are reporting a very faint sort of cold. Hold on, stop it.

2:46:59 a general feeling, oh my gosh, everybody seems to be at each other's throats here in Washington. The notion that we're going to potentially go into a government shutdown, Mike Turner and I work very closely together. But I do think, I wish the House leadership would be spending a little more time on what would happen with a government shutdown, which makes us look bad around the world. And frankly, in a state like mine in Virginia, where we have so many government workers, government contractors, it will be a disaster. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I just thought it was interesting to go from the AI into when the mark, when people's, when the economy is bad, people vote for Trump. That was very strange. Isn't that weird? That's a weird little twist. Especially CBS, us telling them maybe that's a code for, okay, we got, Trump's been read in, he's one of us now, we can safely put him in office. He's good to go. As good as possible.

2:47:52 Oh man, I have an important update. Don't call it a comeback. That's right, COVID is back. But is it COVID? What is it? Can we tell what it is? Oh no, NBC, help us.

Yeah, so the most common symptoms are the ones that we commonly associate with other respiratory illnesses. So that might be sore throat, congestion, sneezing. Some people are reporting a very faint sort of cold. Hold on, stop it.

2:48:54 Do you remember the early, early days? The early days, right at the beginning when we were on this. Those symptoms were never COVID. Oh no, it's not, you're not going to get the sniffles. It's not going to be like that. No, you'll immediately have to go on a ventilator. You'll just be gasping for air. No sneezing. If you sneeze, that's not COVID. It's definitely a sign of not COVID. I wish I could get some of those old clips. I had them in the special I put together. I should find some of those. It's kind of fascinating how this has changed now. It's just reverted to what it is. It's a common cold. Excuse me, sorry.

2:49:37 Let's continue with this clip because this is fascinating. Doctors can't figure out what this is. It's not COVID. Oat, congestion, sneezing. Some people are reporting a very faint sore throat. Others say they feel some scratching or burning akin to a strep throat. And then a smaller number of people reporting, you know, your headaches, chills, muscle aches, maybe a post nasal drip that can lead to a bit of a cough. Isn't that called a flu or a cold? But as you mentioned, that dry cough we were seeing at the beginning of the pandemic, that loss of taste and smell, even some of the gastrointestinal issues we saw early on, those have largely gone away. Yeah, beyond those things, is there anything else that's different about the virus now than it was in the early days? Yeah, it's a cold. Yeah, I know we hear about all these different strains and mutations and it's really important for scientists to pay attention to those.

2:50:24 so a natural infection. So when they're exposed to that virus, their bodies know how to fight it off and it results in a milder illness. I should mention though that that immunity does wane. So for older adults in particular, it's important to get these updated booster shots this fall so they can top off that protection. That's such an important point, especially for the immune to compromise any vulnerable communities to really take the protections you need to stay safe. Yeah, absolutely. All right, Abendix, thanks so much. Appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks for watching.

2:51:06 It's... this is not COVID, this is NOVID. They're lying. They're just lying. It's not... there's no COVID, this is a cold. Get a shot. Oh, and by the way, people are going to CVS and all the, you know, getting their shot and all of a sudden they go, here's a $200 bill. What? It was gonna be free. Yeah. Surprise, surprise. The insurance company's like, nah, nah, we're not gonna reimburse you for that. Nah. What a scam. Absolute scam. Well, I can go out with two homeless clips. Oh, oh, that's good. Or let's skip down to move those to Sunday. I want to play this. This is interesting. This is one of the things Biden's managed to pull off. No Democrats done it before. They're not. Republicans don't dare even try. And this is the climate core thing he's come up with. Twenty twenty thousand kids. Isn't it? What is this being compared to?

2:52:07 This is Civilian Conservation Corps during the Depression. This is a Depression idea. The Works Project Administration during the Depression. Like the New Deal? Is this the New Deal? Yes, totally New Deal stuff. Now, I have talked about why don't they do this? I've said this not on the show so much because it doesn't come up in the conversation until now, but It's always been the following, because I brought this up in discussions. No, no, no, no, we can't do this. This is not something you can do. You can't do these government programs anymore like Civilian Conservation Corps, because it takes union jobs away. That was always the argument. No, no, no, you can't do this. Taking real paying union jobs away from real pay union members, this is no good. You can't do it.

2:52:59 and it's always been verboten. And now all of a sudden we got this. The Biden administration is announcing a major climate initiative. It will be the first of its kind in the nation to train young Americans for jobs in the renewable energy industry. The White House on Wednesday announced the creation of American Climate Corps. It's a workforce initiative that will pay 20,000 young Americans to get training for jobs in the climate sector. The new Corps will support a wide range of jobs, including restoring coastal wetlands, forest management to help fight wildfires, and building out renewable energy projects. No prior experience is required to apply for most programs. The White House said in a statement that the aims include, quote,

2:53:41 conserving our land and waters, bolstering community resilience, advancing environmental justice, deploying clean energy, implementing energy-efficient technologies, and tackling climate change. Initially proposed as part of President Biden's Build Back Better agenda, the program was stripped out of the Inflation Reduction Act. Five states have already launched their own climate core programs. An additional five also announced new programs on Wednesday. The Secretary General of the United Nations on the same day called for more action on fossil fuels. During a speech at the UN Climate Ambition Summit in New York, he asked nations to end subsidies for fossil fuels.

2:54:20 Yeah, so the climate justice part of that is mildly concerning because that means you could have an army of 20,000 brown shirts snooping around. Hey, what are you doing with that diesel car? What are you doing? It's like in England where they keep a tab on everybody's garbage cans. On your bins. On the bins. Yeah, and it's kind of sad that we do this at the very end of the show because Without a doubt in my mind, the number one problem we face is the theft that is climate change and sustainable development goals, which the United Nations now says we need more than five trillion a year. California suing five, the five major oil companies like Big Tobacco. All the states are going to do this now. It's all theft. They're thieving.

2:55:13 Yeah, they're stealing money. They're stealing. You had two clips. Was this the only one of the two? That's the only one. I had the two clips for the homeless problem in Sacramento. Oh, right, right, right. I was just thinking if I could add to your climate change. Well, maybe we just do the... I think we're good. Let's go. We're good? Okay. We're good. Alright, we're good. Anyone can call it. You called it. We're good. We're totally good. And with that, we come to the end of another media deconstruction. Complete end of the media deconstruction. However, you can bet we will be back on Sunday with more media deconstruction for you. That's what we do. You can't find us on Rumble. You can only find us on a podcast, a podcast app. That's the safest way to find us. Coming up, we've got the latest Curry and the Keeper episode on NoahJenderStream.com.

2:56:08 And end of show mixes from Tom and Miracle Wolf. You will like them. Jacked up Joe and Stone Kamala. What a perfect mix. And I'm coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, here in FEMA Region Number 6. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we have smoke in the air. We've got smoke, we've had smoke for days. I'm John C. Dvorak. No smoke here. Blue skies with a few chemtrails. Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA until Sunday. Adios, mofos! Ahoy, ahoy! And such! We're changing people's lives! We beat Farmer this year! Think about what you think about! We're changing people's lives!

2:57:10 It takes everything away from you. Without unions there would be no middle class. Without sick and tired of smart guys. Not more, fewer. I'm sick and tired of you. There is not a single thing we can not do. Not a single thing. Go get him! Can you imagine looking at your child? We're changing people's lives! No one, no, no, no, no. The history books will note it. No one. I went on the floor and got you voters. I got votes for that bill. I convinced people to vote for it. So let's get those things straight too. We're changing people's lives! I got votes for that bill.

2:57:55 Are you talking to me? Are you talking to me? Well, I'm sick and tired of smart guys. Yeah, man. It spurs our imaginations. Our exploration in space. It comes in the morning. It is a reflection of our moment and our time. Think about it. I believe we need to legalize marijuana. I love Venn diagrams.

2:58:48 Who doesn't love smoking weed? I don't wanna. And it's part of, it's part of our experience. And there is such great significance to the passage of time. Nobody should have to go to jail for smoking weed. The best podcast in the universe! Adios, mofo. Dvorak.org slash N-A. It's almost mind-blowing.
