Breaking news! She enjoys a small group of repeat designees including several US presidents and world leaders Yeah, you don't realize this she is an op you just wait What's the Op? Wait until she activates the Swifties against Trump. Just wait! But she already did that Oh no, no... She hasn't done anything yet She has not unleashed the full power that is Tay-Tay

My goodness Happy Hanukkah everybody And this also Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day Flags at half-staff. I don't know if people remember it anymore nobody remembers no today to remember though But no, he remembers it is if you're ever in Fredericksburg Texas go see our beautiful museum the Pacific War Museum Which will help you there was a lot going on that we don't know that We'd have long forgotten we were buddies with the Chinese back in the day who knew oh yeah The Flying Tigers yeah, we were friends with the Chinese and we were we are beaten off the Japs

04:12 As it were. And we're right back to Queen Ursula, there you go! So... I went to Indy and went through the big meetup Oh yes, yes, might as well give us a quick report Well someone gave me RSV or something Thanks You got sick? Oh my god, I've been coughing all night Yeah, it's really infected. I'm telling you it's RSV. Someone give me a... Could be RSV? Why would it be anything else? Can't be! It could be tuberculosis no. No, no RSV there's no other that's all it can be

04:50 Anyway, they're spraying it around. I'm sure of it We had about a hundred and three dusters 130 people was fantastic what a great event that's nice we we flew out from Austin Everything you drove the whole way according to Tina Well driving to Austin is already an hour in 45 so this quite a ways Now you haven't flown in awhile. I hadn't flown in In a bit or at least not since the new TSA machines. Oh, they got new machines now? Yes yes this is... Are they x-rayed? Well that's not for you it's for your bag so you no longer do you have to take your laptop out of your bag! Your electronics can... Is it the big giant bullet looking thing? Yes, the anal logic. They had a prototype of one of those in Oakland Yeah well now they're everywhere Good looking machine yeah they got the blue and the red halo lights on it

05:44 For all I know it's just a tube with nothing in it. It looks sexy. There is actually a small midget opening your bags But the name of it, its laugh inducing Analogic! Come on guys! I'm sure its analogic but as a 15 year old that I am you can't not look at and go haha analogic Anyway, it does speed up the process. They don't look at your boarding pass anymore I think we've kind of been through this You just show your driver's license Oh you're good to go come on through they got everything already they know what you're doing and where are you going

06:24 So this is organized, so we flew in and were picked up by Dame Christina Pearl and her husband Charles. They drove us straight to the venue from the airport was perfect we got in 130 people Mark and Maria who organize this they are...this is giant you have no idea how well-organized this is This whole place was ours They had a stage. The stage? They had a stage, the stage was dressed you know they had Christmas poinsettias everywhere. Did they have a band? If we wanted it there could've been a band great sound system, had a mic, they do a raffle!

07:05 So the way they do it is everybody pitches in into the pot and I think we have a couple of... So this is that Indiana operation that's been going on for awhile. Yeah, yeah! Well one of our other Indiana producers couldn't get anyone to come to his thing Yes but that's probably because everybody was at Indianapolis You know sucked into this thing This is THE place so they do this raffle And, you know so everybody pitches in whatever they want. I think there's three switcheroos maybe for executive producers today from... So the money that's put into the raffle pot goes to a donation and people get an executive producer on the show but then they also get a prize! They had like a no agenda license plate. The first thing to go

07:49 Too Many Eggs book. Yeah, the too many eggs dot com book. Autographed by Mimi! There was an autograph version there? Yes! I mean this thing is tight man it's organized There were people who drove in from Ohio and from Michigan. That's not super far, you know an hour-and-a-half or so but it still was nice to have them there. There is a Rolls Royce aircraft engine plant very nearby I met at least two engineers. I thought that Rolls Royce was an English company? No this is... they purchased this They purchased some aircraft engine

08:28 manufacturer and it's in Indianapolis. Well, Indianapolis is very famous as Indy Center which is the big ATC... Did you go up on that tall thing in the middle of town? You mean the tower? Yeah! No but we had several air traffic controllers at least three And I want to hear their stories Well, I was given some interesting documentation of UFOs which i'm still parsing through because these are reported to the air traffic controllers at Indianapolis. So there's some videos that I am checking out These guys are crazy But also I got a full rundown about this so called shortage of the air traffic controllers

09:19 This bowl, I mean yeah of course there's you know there's a shortage but it's really it's mainly the union that wants to keep the shortage because everyone is getting overtime and making bank. Ah, so that's the way to go. Yeah now of course everyone is getting divorced because they're working so much they can barely keep their family. But look at all this money! Exactly. Let me see what else did I have on my list? We had... The Seminary crew was there a lot of kids, a lot of kids very diverse crowd in age and background and it was just it was quite phenomenal Ryan D'Azio gave us two

09:59 two silver Covid shield coins, ounce of silver each. So I'll be sending yours off to you. Let me see was there anything else that that i had? A lot of people amazing how many people said you know you guys changed my life or you guys saved my life Which is weird, you know. I was like well why? Well during COVID... I didn't do much but talk! Yeah well I guess our talking during COVID gave people at least the courage to know that they weren't the only crazy ones. I think that's it yeah we didn't save anybody's life we informed them that there is a subset of people out there that have common sense yes and they're probably part of it

10:45 And the final thing I would say, if you're ever going to Indianapolis do as we did. I like staying at airport hotels and am a big fan of that. We stayed at the Embassy Suites. This place is dynamite! It's brand new If you would put this place in... Was it an airport? Embassy suites. Yeah, airport embassy suites with a shuttle to the airport! This place if you had put this in downtown Indy You probably would have paid $700 a night and we wound up paying under 200 It was just beautiful Free made-to-order breakfast the next morning It makes no sense to stay in a hotel anywhere else but at the airport. It's just the way to go

11:30 And then, you know, you roll out of bed and it's like I don't have to worry about can i get a cab or an uber or traffic or any of this. Now it's going to be great! So anyway... Thanks again Mark and Maria for taking good care of us It was a lot of fun. It was good to do one of those meetups again. And thanks for the RSV! Appreciate it. It's great. You sound a little congested Oh, I was coughing all night I won't complain. I won't complain because that's the least of our worries, because we've got red blinking lights! Today the FBI director was asked point blank if the terror threat in the US is as bad as it was before 9-11. His answer deeply disturbing all the lives were

12:16 blinking red before 9-11 apparently obviously all of us missed it would you say that there's multiple blinking red lights out there? Multiple! I see blinking lights everywhere i turn. Oh no! Since the Israel-Hamas war started... Geez, get your eyes checked. Ray says the terror threat is at a whole nother level with a number of terror groups including ISIS and Al Qaeda using social media to call for attacks including right here in the US The DOJ also seeing a spike in threats against the Muslim community. Yes! And stunning increase in threats aimed at Jewish Americans since October 7th. I've never seen the time where all the threats or so many of the threats are all elevated, all at exactly the same time. There must be a reason for this what could the reason be?

13:02 Ray is calling on Congress to renew a law that allows the FBI to conduct surveillance on suspected terrorists overseas. That law is set to expire at the end of the year, Ray says given the threats now is not the time to let that happen You shouldn't even be thinking about it Now is not the time. It's the worst, more red blinking lights than ever! And I loved how ABC New York discussed this topic. And now this sobering warning from the FBI director who says his agency... This is The Morning Show on ABC Is working around-the-clock to prevent potential domestic attacks by Hamas or its sympathizers joined now by ABC investigative reporter Aaron Kuterskiy. Aaron thanks for being here. Spook

13:41 All of this came out during the Senate hearing yesterday. Director Wray really highlighting the concern to lawmakers, let's play a portion of that and then we'll get to our conversation. What I would say that is unique about the environment that were in right now in my career is while there may have been times over the years where individual threats could've been higher here or there than they might be right now, I've never seen a time where all the threats or so many of the threats are all elevated. All elevated! At exactly the same time that's what makes this environment we're in now, so fraught They need to bring back the color codes man We need to show it on the screen just It's too pushy you know they aren't going do this every Republican thing By funding our men and women who are working shoulder-to-shoulder with state local law enforcement other partners everyday makes it even more important not less So

14:33 Blinking red lights analogy about 9-11 all the lights were blinking red before 9 11 apparently This is honestly all of us missed it. Would you say that there's multiple? blinking red lights out there leading the way to everywhere I turn. Now, now listen to the news models jump in and make sure that you understand that it would be crazy not to reinstate the ability for the FBI to spy on everybody. That would just be nuts! And his comments came as they're looking whether or not to authorize this Section 702 of the FISA, right? The FISA. This has been, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, this has been highly debated before. What does that mean and what do we expect

15:40 One of the reasons why the FBI director is so concerned about that the threat level is because this is about to expire It's a tool that I can use Trump yeah on foreign terror groups and concern of overreach, and it isn't necessarily a popular measure when it comes to debate on Capitol Hill But the FBI director is imploring Congress to reauthorize Yeah Trump. Otherwise, he says some of the chatter that they noticed that can potentially preempt a plot? That would go unnoticed. But Aaron there is a flip side to this right and some people would say this is politically motivated but it seems like both sides of the aisle feel that this could infringe

16:25 on Fourth Amendment rights, right? There's always a concern of FBI overreach here that the tool is being used in ways that maybe it shouldn't be used to spy on Americans or to do other surreptitious things. And there's a real suspicion these days especially in Republican politics about a deep And that complicates the job of the FBI and law enforcement. Director Wray would say that the FBI follows the law, and is looking to reauthorize a program it has used successfully in the past. But they're also just saying okay but just get a warrant first?

17:01 They would like a warrant first and they have to get a judge to sign off. This isn't like they can just go willy-nilly tapping everybody's phone. They did it before! That is exactly what the do. Willy nilly. They don't care whether they have 702 reauthorized or not, come on give me a break. Yeah I agree with that, they just do it anyway You want to hear the pixie girl? The spook? Her report on CBS, Katherine Harridge What does she have to say? Good evening, Nora. The intelligence chatter is almost always elevated during the holidays. This year government analysts expect heightened rhetoric with... Heightened rhetoric! Yes we're hearing it right now the heightened rhetoric. We're listening to it as we speak from home. ...expect heightened rhetoric with terrorist groups and their media outlets lashing on to the conflict Oh yeah

17:46 With the Israeli military bearing down on southern Gaza and Hanukkah only days away, a new intelligence report reviewed by CBS News warns of increased threats from foreign terrorist groups. And mirrors FBI Director Christopher Wray's testimony today on Capitol Hill. Blinking red lights analogy about 9-11 all the lights were blinking red before. Everyone had to have it, you know? This is the heightened rhetoric! Would you say that there's multiple blinking red lights out there and how weak is this blinking red light nonsense? I see blinking lights everywhere I turn in stark language the intelligence reports predict ISIS and Al Qaeda will likely use the Middle East conflict increase calls for violence in the US Stop it for one second we have

18:35 Note that they keep mentioning Isis and Al Qaeda. Yeah, two operations supposedly have been shut down or shuttered at least in the Middle East yeah We have the Houthi's now and Iran that's supposed to be who's doing all the damage not ISIS why well it's Isis where's isis there's no Isis They're just doing this to get 702 reauthorized they're full of crap. They're full of it Full of it. The blinking lights are his own feds like can we go now boss? Can we do something boss? We got a nut job boss, can we get him to do something boss? It'd be cool but the 6th week boss let's do it! ISIS and Al Qaeda will likely use the Middle East conflict... I liked how you were carried away with that bit thank you You could have ended it very early but no no no you kept going and going that was good I couldn't help myself ...calls for violence in the US this holiday season

19:26 What? RSV, yes. Uh oh! We had an alleged plot... Oh Both, we got him, we got a cool kid here Both, they've got a kid to do this for, Both We're getting some flags. We charged the suspect with multiple felonies to include terroristic threats. Authorities arrested a 16-year old suspect who allegedly wrote on social media about launching a lone wolf attack in support of ISIS, a homemade flag and other articles allegedly recovered along with bombs. We're giving them the flag boss! On Capitol Hill a stark warning from the FBI chief I've never seen a time where

20:08 where all the threats were flagged from 15 year olds or so many of the threats are all elevated, elevated at exactly the same time. With a spike in France since the war began The intelligence report warns civilian casualties in Gaza whether real perceived or falsified or the increased presence of US military forces indirect support of Israel will likely be exploited by terrorist groups Ray said there's nothing to indicate Hamas has the intent or capability to conduct operations inside the US, but the Bureau has not discounted the possibility. Nora? Oh yeah, worried about these lone wolves. Correct? Oh yes, lone wolf! 60 year old kid with a Twitter and a flag. Lone Wolf! So they had this shooting in Vegas at UNLV by a guy who was a professor... I know he probably is gone nuts with these kids that he has to teach

21:02 And then we had the other one. First of all, there was the guy in Virginia who blew himself up in his house and he was like a left-wing nutball who hated Trump so we had to get that off the front page We did that pretty easily Did you see that couch go flying? No, but I saw the explosion. It was unbelievable! If you freeze-frame the explosion... The couch is flying! I mean that wasn't explosive. I think he had explosives in the basement or something. Something went off? And he's shooting a flare gun out the window. The guy was off his rocker. But Arlington, Virginia... This is spook central of all places. Yeah of all places. So we have the Vegas thing but that's no good because that guy was a professor so he probably left it. I can't have that! No. Let's go with the kid. Then we have the Austin shootings. The Austin shootings?

21:53 Yeah, that's what I said. That's what I said when I read the story. There is shooting every day in Austin there is nothing new? Well this is the NBC report on the...I have it clipped. Oh okay. Okay, so Clay we have information coming from two different police agencies that are involved with the Bexar County Sheriff Department and also the Austin Police Department. So we have a timeline of what happened according to police. This all started yesterday morning just before 11 a.m when they say the suspect shot an Austin Independent School District Police officer and then about an hour after that, police say they received 911 calls at an address in Austin

22:29 The officers arrived at that address and found a double homicide, a deceased male and female. Then about five hours after that, a cyclist in a different part of Austin reported being shot an injured now two hours after that officers received or The police department received a call from a different address to which officers responded. Now, that was a burglary in place being reported by the first officer that responded at that second address said he found the suspect in the backyard and the suspect then opened fire against that police officer. The officer returned fire but the suspect was able to flee get into vehicle and drive off

23:06 At that point, officers were able to chase him down. He was in a car accident and then they were able to apprehend that suspect The officer that was shot was then taken to the hospital while other officers entered that home and found two other people diseased So a lot of events taking place Now after this happened, the Austin Police Department contacted the Bayer Sheriff's Department saying it had an address they wanted them to check on that was linked to the suspect Deputies then went to that address now. That was south of Austin in the San Antonio area That's why they contacted the Bexar County Sheriff's Department and those deputies then found two more people deceased inside of that third Address so in total it is six people dead all connected to this suspect Kate. Yeah, that sounds like a gang thing Yes, definitely something like that Wow no more details than I know of not heard about that

23:58 But, you know when I first moved to Austin you'd hear about one shooting maybe every six months. And by the time we left it was every day! Yeah, that's your local government. Yeah defund the police good job everybody. Defund the police put in some DA and it's not going to do anything And that's what you get. So Lady G, Lindy Hopp, Lindsey Graham in the news because of that Christopher Wray thing with the red blinking lights but also just before that from the same Senate session with with the FBI director

24:36 This short clip showed up which everyone went, oh no! Oh what's he doing? I think their votes for Israel apart from the package Republicans overwhelmingly support Israel so do most Democrats. Republicans are divided on Ukraine Republicans are 100% behind strong border security if you want aid to Ukraine we need to control our southern border i will not vote for any aid until we secure our own border. Reform asylum, reform parole is possible to do Democrats don't want to do it all Republicans want to do it I'm not helping Ukraine until we help ourselves That's literally the only clip everybody had everywhere on Twitter and every like the hill

25:18 Oh no, what's happened? He's flip-flopped! No. No he has not this is a scam This is a scam to get 106 billion dollars for the military industrial complex Here's what went down here I have two clips of what Lindsey Graham actually said and it's quite simple to see how this is a uniparty scam to get more money to the military industrial complex. Thank you, Mr Chairman. Welcome Inspector... I mean Director. I had to leave that in. He called Ray the inspector! So Mr Chairman one thing that i will be talking about among the list of threats is a broken board. Mr Chairman since President Biden has taken office we've had 6.6 million encounters

26:07 with illegal aliens at the southern border. That's larger than 33 states and we're on pace, the last seven days we've been averaging about 9500 a day play that out! We're looking at 3.4 million this year at that rate. That puts us at 10 million and that doesn't count the guideways so we're negotiating how to help Ukraine Count me in for helping Ukraine a robust package to help our allies and you crap Ukraine makes sense to me Upping the ability of Taiwan to defend itself. Oh, I want it makes sense to me Israel is all the sense in the world all good border security is the fourth plank of this supplemental we're wildly apart

27:02 So they have a negotiation and they're going to dress this up. See you heard what he wants, Taiwan money good Ukraine money good Israel money good But we have six ten I don't know how many millions coming in through the border so let's shut down A tiny portion of that The negotiations by Senator Lankford and Murphy appreciate their efforts We made great progress on asylum But the Democratic Party seems to be unwilling to address... Now notice, we made great progress on asylum. So shh! Don't talk about asylum. That's all done, that's all good Let's talk about what we're really gonna do to show the American people are fixing the border The key problem Parole This statute is pretty clear The secretary at DHS has the ability to parole an individual It's supposed to be an individual Based on case by case basis for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit

28:05 Mayorkas and people at DHS have used that provision to give parole to over 240,000 people from four countries alone. Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela It is not meant to be used in that fashion Why are we at an impasse? The Biden administration refuses to follow the law as written, refuses to give up this concept of humanitarian parole because it is their way of managing the border. There you go! So what he's really talking about is 249 thousand people out of 10 million... Don't worry so he's making it look like he's big man on... We know that Lindsey Graham is bought and paid for

28:56 Buy the military-industrial complex. Look at his state! Look at why he always wins It's so obvious Don't worry, we're gonna fight for this parole thing. Yeah, we'll cut it down. We'll cut it down I'm Lindsey Graham 250 10 million of the two hundred fifty thousand ten million said yeah We already got the asylum thing worked out please nothing's going to change this way Nothing except we're gonna get the money for Israel and Taiwan Crane sounds good one hundred six billion Another 106 billion. I wonder how the people in Chicago are feeling about that right now? They're loving it! Did you follow, I mean... I had clip after clip and then I... The Chicago thing is great yeah Yeah so remember it was the same company they had the contracts The mayor already had the contracts went around his city council So we got a contract with the busing company they will build tents

29:58 So they start building tents in this, you know for 2 000 people but that's what they said it'd probably be more. In these fenced off Chicago areas and then they do a ground sample oh there's cancer in there! Keep building. Just keep building, it's fine don't worry about it. Well that all came to a head. Three Chicago aldermen frustrated with Mayor Brandon Johnson's handling of the migrant crisis want several of his top officials gone in this letter Alderman Anthony Beale Anthony Napolitano and Raymond Lopez asked the mayor to demand the immediate resignation of seven senior leaders, including the Deputy Mayor for Migrant Rights and Johnson's deputy chief of staff. Alderman Lopez says the tipping point was Brighton Park. The very notion that we have a team of individuals who saw no problem using a cancerous brownfields house 2000 Venezuelan migrants

30:54 It's astonishing to me. It's astounding and it is really setting up not only this policy directed by the mayor for failure, but also setting up the city for failure and future litigation." Yesterday Governor Pritzker pulled the plug on the Johnson administration's plan to build a winterized migrant base camp in Brighton Park after traces of toxic chemicals were discovered at the site Lopez and his colleagues say they're worried two other temporary housing locations might also be contaminated. Is the whole area surrounded by toxic chemicals? Yeah, it's all... I wonder if the people who- Where do these toxic chemicals come from and why are they there in the first place? Well we don't know but people- No! They don't discuss any of this. No no. You know they're trying to do the right thing, they're putting up a shantytown

31:39 They had the right idea, yeah. But now they're all going to go into hotels... well they'll be going into police stations. Now they're gonna go into hotels and other... The airport! Yeah maybe. It will be contaminated How many more sites is the mayor going to use? Is his team going to use that are contaminated? What do we know about 115th and Halsted? What do we know about the CVS in Little Village? A spokesperson for Mayor Johnson dismissed the letter saying, This week, the administration defended itself noting that at the height of the challenge 5,000 migrants flooded police stations and airports. Today that number is roughly 600 As for Brighton Park The state is supposed to foot the bill for construction work but the contractor might have to eat the cost now that site has been found uninhabitable Meanwhile it's 14 degrees in Chicago It was so obvious to see this was coming

32:44 Close the border for real people. Come on, stop using... Keep shipping everyone to Chicago. Well 10 million People are going they're choosing to go to Chicago it's not just a ten million It's not just Texas busting them off there's a lot of people that come in and say where do you want to go? Chicago! Because they got people there Yeah, well the more people are there it's like a kind of... It builds momentum and you end up with everyone wanting to go to Chicago because that is where their friends are. Yeah! I was talking to the shoeshine guy at Indianapolis airport. You were having your shoes shined? My boots yes Oh i love that. Do you wear your Texas boots? Are not wearing sneakers like every other person in the world No, I wear my boots pretty much all the time

33:30 Well, okay. So what did the guy tell you? Well he...he had come in from Liberia And he... A Liberian shoeshine guy? Mm-hmm. And he owned two shoe shine stands in the airport, his son was working the other terminal He was in B and his son is an A. And he was telling me same things you know, how did you wind up here said well like everybody You know I had someone who was from Liberia I knew who was here and they said hey man I got a good gig for we come on over it was 19 years ago but Still, he says that's how it works. Where do you got a friend? Where do you have some family and if they've got a thing going on... It's all for work! He was real happy to be here. He is American now of course. And great shine! 15 bucks! Where can get a shoe shine for $15? That's very inexpensive

34:33 I wouldn't know. You don't get, you wear Crocs! I don't wear Crocs at all things. Now you were Speedos that look like Crocs? I don't wear Speedos...I don't even know they make shoes What are the shoes you had that looked like Crocs?! I never had shoes that looked like Crocs!! What were the shoes you had that were like plastic I've never had a plastic shoe. You're dreaming, I don't know what kind of nightmares you have at night but that's one of them to see me walking around in a plastic shoe there has to be something bad going on Maybe it was because i was listening to DH Unplugged

35:09 You guys are always talking about it. Oh, he's a Crocs nut! It's in my subconscious now that you guys are all over the Crocs. Horowitz is a big Crocs fanatic. I mean... He talks Crocs, he invests in Crocs, he wears Crocs Does he wear Crocs? Maybe HE wears Crocs. He talks about Crocs all the time. He says he has a pair of Crocs that he's had for 30 years and they've never failed him and blah blah blah Do you know the story behind Crocs? The success story? No. When the movie Idiocracy was being shot, so this is now what 25 years ago maybe longer They were looking, the production or the art director of the production manager was almost looking for futuristic shoes. And the woman came to the director what are you a famous guy and director? And he said I've got these phenomenal shoes they're going to be great because no one will ever wear these things there's so ugly it'll look like it's from that crazy future and that was Crocs! And that was their big break. Yeah yeah that was their big break

36:12 Yeah, Crocs. Crocs for the win and now Justin Bieber has crocs he has a Crocs boots yeah I think he's wearing crocodile boots no he's got crock crocks sure yeah it was like Gucci Croc there's all kinds of stuff crocs it's crocs I want to play the hearing with Stefanik grilling the presidents of the three universities. This was fantastic! And did you hear Liz McGill's Penn State apology tour later, 24 hours later she came out with an apology? No I didn't hear that...I saw it. Well you go, you go. So here we go this is the hearing... Set it up set it up set it up. As you're telling me to set it up I'm actually setting it up

37:02 So the House, which should be the House Un-American Activities Committee, Dvorak.substack.com read about it It should be that but no it was a committee on on anti-Semitism in the universities and they've got the president, all females interestingly enough. The President of Harvard, the President of MIT and the President of Penn State and they go through them one by one and Stefanik who is a very interesting kind of fiery Congresswoman from District 21 of New York

37:40 Republican, she's going after him and then she catches a kind of an interesting little theme where they can't...and they all kind answer the same way. They all say in context is the key words but she catches the fact that none of them can say yes to a very simple question that if any one of them just said yeah! Yes! And it'd be passed over I'll be fine but now all three of them are likely to get fired especially the Penn State woman who blew it the most. But let's start... She is just crazy! You'll hear it when you go through this, unfortunately I feel and I apologize for Stefanik popping her piece into the mic constantly but here we go. At MIT does calling for the genocide of Jews violate MIT's code of conduct or rules regarding bullying and harassment? Yes or no? Wait before before we get to that

38:37 When it comes to the First Amendment, I would say calling for the genocide of anybody is that permissible or is that not permissible? It's permissible by the government, but it's constitution. But if you're running a university, you can have your own rules and regulations regarding what speech can be about stuff like that. I mean there has to be a limit at some point. You can't say... And like the right-wing talk show guys also, what if it was about the genocide of all black people? Would they have reacted the same? Or LGBTQ. Or LG All Gays yeah it would have been... but no it was about... Okay second question If you said I call for the killing of John C Dvorak is that permissible under the First Amendment? I think it's a threat Right okay with a genocide... But I think I could sue you or somebody can be arrested. But a genocide is not the same threat

39:38 Genocide is very, seems to me to be the same. Genocide? You want to kill all people of this group! So you should not be able to say it by the First Amendment I think, see this is where these guys got into trouble. Yeah this is why they kept thinking First Amendment and said well you could you should be able to say anything you want including I think there's a fire in the theater! No that's the one thing you can't say! It's not in the Constitution that you can't? That's just kind of generally accepted rule yeah there's a lot of things are just generally accepted as you can't say these things and this is one of them all you have to do is say

40:18 Do that she asked the same question you just say yes, it's no good. Yeah Or you even get Carrie where so I think it's deplorable That anyone would even think such a thing let alone say it but could have done now You could have said yes, you can say it but it's horrible and deplorable That's what that's what you do anything? You could do anything But what they did what they did was well, I don't know Let's listen At MIT, does calling for the genocide of Jews violate MIT's code of conduct or rules regarding bullying and harassment? Yes or no. If targeted at individuals not making public statements...Yes or No

40:58 Calling for the genocide of Jews does not constitute bullying and harassment? I have not heard calling for the genocide of Jews on our campus. But you've heard chants for intifada? I've heard chants, which can be anti-Semitic depending on context when calling for elimination of Jewish people So those would not be according to MIT's code of conduct or rules That would be investigated as harassment if pervasive an severe Ms. McGill, at Penn does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Penn's rules or code of conduct? Yes or no If the speech turns into conduct it can be harassment

41:39 But now why could they not just answer the question? What is going on, what were they afraid of. Here's what I have a theory because they all say context especially the Harvard woman yeah The Harvard woman was one of the worst but this woman here just blew it every which way and she has a rebuttal but i think that three of them because they're all you know either we're in the top three ivy leagues where the cat's meow so that they got together. Oh yeah, we're all answering it the same way because you know screw these, screw this Republican! I'm sure they agreed on because they think this idea of what depends on the context keeps cropping up

42:26 And this one, though is the worst of the three in terms of her saying well unless they start genociding it's no big deal. Unless they start actually genocide-ing its okay! Yes I am asking specifically calling for the genocide of Jews does that constitute bullying or harassment? If it is directed and severe pervasive it is harassment So the answer is yes It is a context-dependent decision, Congresswoman. It's a context dependent decision? That's your testimony today calling for the genocide of Jews is depending upon the context that it not bullying or harassment this is the easiest question to answer yes Ms McGill so was your testimony that you will not answer yes if it is if the speech becomes conduct it can be harassment yes Conduct meaning committing the act of genocide

43:20 The speech is not harassment. This is unacceptable, Ms McGill I'm going to give you one more opportunity for the world to see your answer. Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Penn's code of conduct when it comes to bullying and harassment? Yes or no It can be harassment The answer is yes So clearly they're so afraid Here's what I think They're so afraid to piss off the protesting students that they'll get lynched and lose everything. That's what's going on here! Well, I think there is an element does exist but the thing that...I know they had to get together because each of the three uses this context idea Oh it's all the same, yeah it's all the same of course but that's because over and over Because they have to have a front because All of the children at these schools are out there protesting against Genocide Joe

44:16 I don't know where they're coming from in terms of their reality checks, but it seems to me that if they just said yes... They could be done with it. No, and I don't think the students would care! I don't think the students even know this was going on let alone go after them. Well no of course not but these students don't know anything either It's that the political factions that are activating them it's the socialist groups that are activating them And they've been taught for decades about colonialism This is the epitome of colonialism in their minds. This is what's going on, before we continue... The White House interns have written a letter to the president demanding a Middle East ceasefire! The interns!! Yeah that's really bad I mean to be an intern in the White House is a big deal

45:21 And they wrote, we the undersigned fall 2023 White House and Executive Office of the President interns will no longer remain silent on the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. We are Palestinians Jewish Arab Muslim Christian Black Asian Latina... Latinuh! White and queer We need the voices of the American people and call on the administration to demand a permanency's fire. We are not the decision makers of today, but we aspire to be the leaders of tomorrow! And we will never forget how pleased that the American people have been heard and thus far ignored." So that's bad when your own interns, the unpaid help who are there to get a good mark for you know this was like you were a good intern dude

46:18 This is, this is beautiful to watch because the whole thing is backfiring. Everything. It's hilarious! I think it's quite... Okay what's the third one? Is that the...? So the third one we go to them and we finally finish it off with a Harvard woman And Dr. Gay, at Harvard does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard's rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no It can be depending on the context What is the context Targeted as an individual, targeted at an individual Its targeted at Jewish students, Jewish individuals

46:55 Do you understand your testimony is dehumanizing them? Uh-oh. Do you understand that dehumanization is part of antisemitism? I will ask you one more time Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard's rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no. Anti-Semitic rhetoric when it crosses into conduct, that amounts to bullying, harassment, intimidation. deconstruction. When it crosses into conduct, that means that you actually start genociding Jews? Is that what she means by that?" Yeah it's what the Penn State woman said." And then we say when you start genocide in Jews then its harassment and bullying. Got it! I gotta hear that again... So when it crosses into conduct ie making good on your threats

47:49 Then it's bullying. Hey, you gotta stop genociding the Jews bro! Anti-Semitic rhetoric when it crosses into conduct... And is it anti-semitic rhetoric? Anti-Semitic rhetoric when it crosses into conduct that amounts to bullying harassment intimidation That is actionable conduct and we do take action So the answer is yes that calling for the genocide of Jews violates Harvard Code of Conduct correct Again, it depends on the context. It does not depend on the context! The answer is yes and this is why you should resign these are unacceptable answers across the board

48:27 Oh, that was almost as good as John Kerry's fart video which everyone was posting. That's going around and around. I know who Kerry farted! Yeah goodness so let's go the last clip in this series is Liz McGill yes and she the other two women didn't do this they sent out press releases saying well I think it was misunderstood but Liz McGill goes on on the social media and apologizes like an idiot. It's just like, it makes no sense... You had your chance to say yes but no you do this instead. There was a moment during yesterdays congressional hearing on anti-semitism when I was... Is she in her office? On a webcam like thing is that what she's doing here? Yep. Was asked if a call for the genocide of Jewish people... Wait stop!

49:18 I think what they should do if you're gonna do this, be in your car. With your seatbelt on and driving is even funnier. Even better if you can drive it! During yesterday's congressional hearing on anti-semitism when I was asked of a call for the genocide of Jewish people on our campus would violate our policies In that moment, I was focused on our university's longstanding policies aligned with the US Constitution which say that speech alone is not punishable. So it was not focused on but I should have been. The irrefutable fact that a call for genocide of Jewish people is a call for some of the most terrible violence human beings can perpetrate. It's evil plain and simple.

50:13 A call for genocide of Jewish people is threatening, deeply so. It is intentionally meant to terrify a people who have been subjected to pogroms and hatred for centuries and were the victims of mass genocide in the Holocaust. In my view it would be harassment or intimidation For decades under multiple Penn presidents and consistent with most universities, Penn's policies have been guided by the Constitution.

51:01 In today's world, where we are seeing signs of hate proliferating across our campus and our world in a way not seen in years. These policies need to be clarified and evaluated. Penn must initiate a serious and careful look at our policies. Provost Jackson and I will immediately convene a process to do so as president. I'm committed to a safe secure and supportive environment So all members of our community can thrive. We can and we will get this right, thank you." Alright so here's how it went down... Uh Liz this is Rosenberg I got a problem with my donation this year! Come on it's so phony they're all phonies the whole thing but I love it I love it It's so cool to see all of this backfiring every single bit is just backfiring

52:00 I do have an NBC report. Let's see how NBC reported on the, so you had the actual clips? This is the report. On Capitol Hill, the presidents of three top schools MIT, UPenn and Harvard grilled over a spike in anti-Semitism on their campuses Your university is a hotbed of it! At the center of the hearing tension over how to protect both student safety and free speech while combating anti-semitism and Islamophobia Disagreements about The conflict in the Middle East should never escalate to threats of violence. Harvard's president was asked about pro-Palestinian demonstrators calling for Intifada on her campus Can you not say here that it is against the code of conduct at Harvard? We embrace a commitment to free expression even views that are objectionable, offensive

52:51 hateful. It's when that speech crosses into conduct, that violates our policies." In recent weeks a number of Jewish students have told NBC News they worry for their safety. Why today a Jewish student is afraid to walk to the library at night? Congresswoman let me start by saying I'm devastated to hear that and The safety and security of our campus, and our students in particular is my top concern. All three presidents are facing criticism for their response to hate rhetoric on campus each walked through new plans to combat anti-semitism Staff here at UPenn say they've received anti-semitic emails and hateful slogans were projected on buildings. Now there's additional security at religious centers and a new antisemitism task force." Now notice what word was not used in that report? The word genocide, they didn't put any of the actual hearing into that report. They really... No they carefully left it out! There was a big meeting about that piece

53:53 Oh no, we can't have that. Oh no! You know what you can? Okay... This is NBC big supporters of Biden. You can't use the word genocide because people will make this because you were still in trying to get rid of this genocide Joe meme Yep yep so it was not used So this is your media at work covering for the president Phony phony baloney It's unbelievably bad While we're on these children at schools Let's bring in some transgenderism, some trans Maoist movement that is going on because things are starting to become clear. And I am so happy for Sheryl Atkinson. She still has the career that Laura Logan should have. You know she is doing her own thing

54:40 I agree with that. I actually agree with that Cheryl has done a fabulous job of she went over to Sinclair and got a look It's not the gig that she had by any means it was not even close But she still gets to put out what good material She puts out good material, and I think she's making a little bit of money She plays like podcast level you know but that's okay I think her husband works. It's all fine and she's good." You know, she might even be making this much... She was a correspondent at CBS there that's not the big bucks. She wasn't like an anchor or anybody who makes a lot of money. No but but she kept her integrity. She kept your integrity. She still has the same kind of look

55:24 You know, she's got that news and you know like investigative reporter look with the hair tied back all good stuff. She's got the look and even though the editing is not super duper I thought that this wasn't it's when you hear it we'll go oh well of course this is no surprise but she had the right people she had the right information went to exactly the right depth And this was about the transgender lobby and it explains exactly where everything is coming from. We begin with an investigation into the forces working to shape our information landscape when it comes to transgender policies

56:05 When an issue goes from zero to 60 practically overnight, grabbing headlines political real estate and funding priorities you can bet there's an invisible hand in play. Today some of the surprising interest we found behind the well-funded transgender lobby All right so she had my attention from the get go Surprise, surprise. This is not a grassroots movement as everyone have you believe it's top-down People who think that this is a grassroots movement that is giving rise to the transgender culture in the United States this transgender moment that people say we're having do no understand that this more of a top down

56:47 dynamic that is at play where you have really just a handful of organizations and LGBT advocacy organizations that are driving the agenda but because they have such sway and such money they're influencing everything from schools to politicians to corporate America. All right so There's three groups that this and this guy wrote a whole lot of research on this. What do you think is the number one money influencer as to this top-down movement? Well, I know one of them is Pritzker That comes in the number two position. Ooh Soros no No, no think much bigger who controls the media Disney Who controls the media who controls the media pharma

57:38 Oh, Pharma. The name of the report that I wrote about this for the American Principles Project is called the Transgender Leviathan. I chose that name on purpose because leviathan is a biblical monster that's just enormous you can only ever catch glimpses of the full size of it right? So tell me what you've learned about the big forces behind the funding yeah so I think you can broadly name three which is pharmaceutical companies, liberal billionaires and ultimately I think to a growing extent the taxpayer. When it comes to taxpayers Gonzales points to studies the government funds like one promoting breast removal or mastectomies for young girls as part of a process to transition but i think that far

58:26 The far larger and more pernicious problem is the problem of the pharmaceutical companies are behind this stuff. And there's so much... One example is Lupron, the drug most commonly used for suppressing puberty It's a first step under one model of treating children who wish to be the opposite sex It's not FDA approved for use in transition therapy, right? It's used to castrate the basically the most dangerous kinds of sex offenders who just can't help themselves and are most likely to reoffend So they give them Lupron to basically chemically castrate them. And now we're giving it to kids to suppress

59:04 the process of them going into puberty. With two injections reportedly costing as much as $73,000, Lupron drew two billion dollars worth of business last year for drug maker AbbVie The Biden administration cited a study produced by a group called the Trevor Project. The Trevor project is an LGBT advocacy nonprofit and basically, the Biden administration said like this study from this nonpartisan nonprofit says that it's important for children to be able to have access to gender affirming care right? But when you look at the funding of The Trevor Project, what you'll see is that they actually received $50,000 from AbbVie Foundation. The company that manufactures Looprod. Yeah I love it! The Trevor Project... Elton John's in that and this is huge

59:57 So, we know how the pharmaceutical companies at least control what the media does or does not say. So that will be kept away from the news or the media at all times but now that was not so surprising to me as this next part which explains so much. We found an even bigger medical money interest surrounding the trans movement it involves a little publicized but sad reality, the transgender HIV epidemic In seven major U.S cities, more than 40% of transgenders are infected with HIV the virus that causes AIDS The rate is even higher among transgender blacks Most of them 62% are HIV positive according to the CDC survey

1:00:47 That adds up to a lucrative market for businesses like Gilead Sciences, a pharmaceutical company that's developed 11 HIV medications now on the market earning over 1.5 billion dollars a month And Gilead happens to be the single biggest known funder of the trans agenda. More than $6 million in 2017 and 2018, Gilead says its goal is to support communities that are disproportionately impacted by diseases aligned with our therapeutic areas of focus. But wait there's more! The number two funder of trans causes at 4.8 million over 2 years is Arcus Foundation

1:01:29 Arcus is a non-profit associated with billionaire John Stryker heir to the Stryker Corporation medical technology company fortune and a driver of gender identity ideology and transgenderism across the globe. Third, $4.6 million is Tawani Foundation associated with the billionaire Pritzker family and James now Jennifer Pritzker of the Hyatt Hotels fortune. Tawani has large medical investments and funds causes that normalize transgenderism in a broad spectrum of identities

1:02:06 And number four among top donors to trans interests is Gill Foundation at 3.1 million dollars, associated with American software magnate and gay activist Tim Gill He's the single largest known donor to gay causes and a half billion dollars total So the way I read this report or hear this report is we need more transgender folk to get HIV to sell our medications too And they're all in it and they all have these companies that sell crap. Marketing taken to the extreme. Oh, and then just... Marketing without conscience! Who? I mean so... Hey, I'll become a chick my name's Pritzker. I'm Jen good to go people are disturbed and Cheryl... Disturbed and rich

1:03:00 Well, that goes hand in hand sometimes. Sheryl Atkinson will now wrap it up because of course this money buys you everything you want including education. The money from a handful of sources exceeds thousands of groups reaching into policies and practices in government and education and at corporations universities doctors associations hospitals insurance companies media outlets journalism groups and more Top recipients of the trans targeted money include the University of Minnesota, home to Gender and Sexuality Center for Queer and Trans Life. Another top beneficiary is Annenberg Center for Health Sciences at Eisenhower. It sponsors programs like this one for health care professionals. Hello and welcome to The Elevate webinar series on creating a gender-affirming healthcare environment for optimal HIV care

1:03:54 Funding for transgender causes continues to hit new highs each year. By one analysis, the top ten foundations that give the most made up 55% of the funding In the end, the explosion in transgender influence on society and politics can largely be traced to a handful of powerful interests There you go And of course stopping advertising of pharmaceutical products directly to consumers on television would help a lot of this. Yeah, help prevent it and by the way this is the kind of report that you would have seen on the show 60 Minutes about 15 or 20 years ago longer I don't even think they do that now. You know what 60 minutes is doing now? They're doing native ads for IBM for their quantum computer shows The show is unwatchable

1:04:46 Yeah, the quantum computer. Oh IBM is... we don't have an AI play so we got to do quantum. But this is horrible! Horrible they don't care about the children they've completely captured parents who are dumb no it's called trans housing by proxy who are narcissistic, cluster B personality disorder. And I say that with love and understanding because they were traumatized... Isn't it Munchausen? This is now an accepted term Transhausen by proxy. It goes transhausen? Yes it went from Munchausen by proxy to transhausen by proxy. It's apparently an accepted term in the Epoch Times

1:05:44 Epoch times. Parents' personality disorders driving surge in trans kids. It's true, it's... I mean of course there are people with gender dysphoria There've always been people with gender dysphoria But this moved to 30% of kids saying oh yeah I'm non-binary I'm something but... In February Jamie Reed former case manager at the Washington University for Transgender Center at St Louis Children's Hospital exposed practice at the clinic and described parents who were adamant about transitioning their children Her revelations became the catalyst for Missouri lawmakers to draft a law barring hormone therapy. And this is where they coined the phrase trans hate, yes, trans housing by proxy but it's narcissism by many of these... It's the same thing as you know, you get some Hollywood celebrities that start to kick off the GPL-1 mania, the Ozempic

1:06:47 You know, and then everyone follows. It's... the advertising is the problem that's the biggest problem we could stop so much by just stopping that And while were on it That was depressing Well I'll lift your spirits with some crazy stuff here There is such a push to get these semaglutide drugs into the Medicare package and forced insurance, that they are just rolling out everything they can. It helps you lose weight but wait let's bring on George Stephanopoulos

1:07:37 This is Good Morning America and these are people who take themselves very seriously. Listen to the crap they are doing. We've done a new research on Ozempic in alcohol, it finds that the weight loss drug may also prevent alcohol overuse and abuse Dr. Jen Ashton is standing by First Hero Redshift has the details Oh uh... Alcohol abuse? It helps! What?! I have no desire to drink wine anymore and that's crazy to me because i couldn't stop before. This morning the wildly popular drug used for weight loss, semaglutide is now showing very early signs of potentially curbing alcohol use for those who drink excessively

1:08:16 A new case study composed of six people screening positive for alcohol use disorder or AUD found that they all saw a clinically significant decrease in symptoms while they were using semi-glutide for weight loss. Christy Martin, who was not part of the study says while she used to drink wine every night her urge to drink has disappeared. Drinking for me was becoming a bit of an issue

1:08:54 I can't believe this is on television. Yeah, that was a drunk! That was lush but then i took the Ozempic and the fact that I just have no desire for it is something I didn't expect and is just an amazing side benefit. I can't even tell you. Amazing. This small case study now setting the stage for larger clinical trials looking at semi-glutide as a treatment for AUD as researchers explore whether the drug has potential to treat other excessive use conditions. And again, this initial study only included six patients but as you heard more thorough studies are already underway it could be years before we know the true results. Does that matter? It's okay Ariel thanks very much. Oh thanks I'm gonna tell you let's put this in the red book. That report was disgusting! It's not over it's not over. I'm going to put in the Red Book right now that there will be a study

1:09:50 Then six people is the norm these days. There will be a study that shows that ozempic is great for erectile dysfunction I guarantee it this is the only thing they're missing if this is the only and you know, I was kind of you know flaccid But now man, I'm not only my trim but look at look at it. Dr Janice here You know a lot about these drugs your board certified in obesity medicine What does this study board certified and obesity medicine? Okay So, George what's interesting about this is astute doctors for years who have been managing patients on the GLP-1 agonist that's the semi glutide class for weight loss and treating obesity have started to hear anecdotal reports of this. This small case study of these six patients was really one of the first times that reported in the literature

1:10:38 their experience with their cravings for alcohol use, their subjective experience with that really powerfully documented. Their subjective experience with that? This is a native ad of the most lowest form The lowest form and it's minutes and minutes of this stuff. Their subjective experience with that really powerfully documented theories are that works in the brain, in the reward center but this could be a major indication I have to say you know we know a lot of people who are taking these drugs and they report the same thing We know a lot of people who are drunks here at ABC, they're reporting the same thing Absolutely

1:11:20 What other treatment options are available for substance abuse disorders? Well, this is one of those bright spots. It sheds light on what treatments are already existing and how they're not being used. There's three FDA approved... An extra bonus! They're promoting some other drugs. Medications for people with alcohol use disorder. They are vastly under-prescribed behavioral interventions tech-based or app based therapies. Tech based or app based therapies? I wanted an app based therapy. Obviously increasing in popularity and research but they have a role as well, but all of these things this isn't about just you know potentially choosing one it's about if you have an alcohol use disorder substance use disorder filling the boat and getting as much treatment...I thought it was up it was substance abuse

1:12:08 But now they have this new term. I don't know if... What is she saying? Substance use disorder, alcohol use disorder not abuse, use so you're not quite a drunk but you're kind of on the way. As we were just discussing, I mean it really seems like a miracle drug why do you think that there seems to be a stigma against the use of these drugs? I think social backlash Lindsay is huge whether it's for weight management or mental illness and that really can't...that..it's just wrong You know if you had high blood pressure you would treat it There's a role for these It's not one size fits all but you have to factor in the risk

1:12:46 taking a medication like this versus the benefits of treating it. The risk of not taking it? Isn't this great! Wow, you can't afford the risk of not taking this medicine because it's so beneficial. It is a Hamas support disorder. It will cure everything. Pressure you would treat it there's a role for these it's not for everyone it's not one size fits all but you have to factor in the risk of taking a medication like this versus the benefits of treating it when you weigh those options. Seems like so helpful, diabetes... The risks of not taking it versus the benefits! Unbelievable way of putting it and by the way I think you get paid is almost like I'm reminded of the old who was that show where they people to get into fights on the stage all the time? Jerry Springer Show. Jerry Springer Show where they have

1:13:33 This was revealed by someone who's on the show that you got a sheet, that if you did this, you got paid so much. If you did that, you get paid so much bonus and so if it picked through a shoe, you'd get 500 bucks or something like that. There is obviously a bonus clause in here for saying, if somebody says it's a miracle drug. Miracle drug? There's 500 bucks I think this is more than that. This is Dr. Jen! The obesity expert Board certified. Dr. Jen is saying you really have to weigh the risk of not taking this

1:14:16 Versus take she should be disbarred for a despite. You can't just bar anybody But she should be something that should be done about someone who puts it in that way In other words is risky not to take it It's great official to take but what you're saying here Is that this obesity and this is the bottom line John everybody knows obesity? It's a disease It's not because you eat, it is a use disorder. A food use disorder. You see this is where this is going. Treated there's a role for these its not for everyone its not one size fits all but you have to factor in the risk of NOT taking medication like this versus benefits of treating when you weigh those options. Seems like so helpful diabetes weight loss alcohol you name it. Alright Jen thank you so much. That was awesome everything!

1:15:04 There is of course, you know a closing to this eight minute story. We are back now with a question from our viewers and Dr. Jen is here to answer it of course the question is I'm easing off of ozempic and I'm worried about the weight coming back any suggestions for this? So first of all It depends on each individual of course, but yes people should expect that some amount of weight loss on these GLP-1 agonists will come back because that is the chronic condition of overweight and obesity. It's not like treating strep throat where once you're done your done. How much will come back is an unknown but what it happens

1:15:42 What's happening in the real world is that a lot of doctors who have patients on these kinds of medications like Ozempic, Wegovi, Manjaro are kind of putting them on a maintenance plan. A maintenance plan? This is a great drug! We need this in Medicare, a maintenance plan. You're on it forever! In terms of long term so what could that look like potentially and again it will be different for every person It might mean instead of taking a shot or an injection every week maybe you're taking it every two weeks or every ten days. It might be going down on a dose. It might be alternating weeks one week on one week off This sounds a lot like the Sacklers with

1:16:23 with the opioids, oh just change your dose don't worry. The point is that you have to remember the condition of overweight and obesity are chronic conditions. Ah it's a chronic condition you can't help it, its chronic, it's a disease thats all there for you need a maintenance program you need to keep taking because otherwise their weight going to come back. They're not as simple as treating an infection for a short period of time and then you're done with it. So long-term management is going to be a big part of it, and we still don't know what that will look like. There's a weight management component to this where the doctor can kind of decide to lower the dosage to make sure your consistent and your not losing more weigh than you want? Absolutely! Just like we do managing patients on other types of medications It's not always the official way that the drug

1:17:09 designed, but this is what doctors and health care providers do to help their patients manage a chronic condition. So we should be hearing more about that because there are going to be a lot of people who are going to be managed on these medications. Oh my God! This is so horrible. But you know this is who we are as Americans I'm almost speechless of hearing this. Okay then last one I'll stop This is not about Ozempic. This is... Well, actually I should do this one. This is the Wall Street Journal. The Wall Street Journal Report which has a podcast in the morning

1:17:59 And they now... So I'm going to play this clear native ad about Ozempic and a new term will be introduced too. And then listen for the story that comes right after this one. As demand for weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wagovi continues to surge, food companies are looking for ways to cash in like by pitching companion products or even natural alternatives. Companion products? We should do a podcast, the companion product for your ozempic weight loss. It would be motivating to me. Wouldn't that just be food? Joining me to discuss is reporter Jesse Newman. Hey Jesse! Hey there. Of course food companies are looking to see whether and how these drugs will reshape American diets. How are they responding? Big food companies like everyone else have certainly noticed how popular these drugs

1:18:51 that were designed to treat diabetes and obesity have become. And they've really been watching as these drugs just have gotten incredibly popular, spread to millions of consumers throughout the US and there's some concern that could sort of take a bite out of demand for the products that these companies make. Uh-oh, we better get some food! And so what we're seeing is it's very early days but we are seeing some companies that are trying to step in and develop some companion products to offer to patients on these drugs So what are some of their solutions? We're seeing companies like Nestle and Abbott, and they are coming up with what they're calling companion products. And these are products that patients who are taking diabetes and weight loss drugs could also consume if for example they find that they are losing muscle mass there's a

1:19:46 Startup out in California. Oh if you're losing muscle mass, which is the main thing these products remove Okay If you find that your mood that you have ozempic ass because you lose it Because of muscle mass loss we got some chocolate for you and a startup is doing super gut and they make mixes, shakes and bars out of a proprietary prebiotic fiber blend that they call nature's ozempia. And essentially do the same thing that these drugs can do on you. Okay so this is a bull crap report but wait for the next story in this podcast using all natural foods That was WSJ's Jessie Newman. And now onto the next story what should it be?

1:20:26 And finally, after seven years of research McDonald's is changing its burgers making more than 50 tweaks to its signature offering. This is not by mistake people this is how your American media works it's not a mistake like you can lose the weight now go eat a burger and right on cue right on cue right on cue Did we not say that McDonald's was going to have all the morning shows doing their new thing now? Oh yeah, where they're munching down on burgers and going yum!

1:21:14 Cosmics. Hmm. Cos-Mix? What's that? Like McDonalds? What the question?! Everyone is asking, what is this all about? NBC's Maggie Vespa is ahead of the game. Maggie good morning! What's it all about? Hey Savannah guys, good morning. Yeah we wish we knew I mean look you can see they're clearly keeping it under wraps there's literally a tarp over the side by the way if that's not clue enough The major chain backing this venture which if you haven't figured out by now is McDonalds They are not confirming much at all tied to Cosmic That being said fast food fans and industry experts agree This mounting McMystery marks a very American trend A McMystery? Was Maggie Vespa

1:21:58 Did she co-host that debate last night? I don't know who did. I didn't watch the debate because... May, wait no it was a McMistry I think we're onto something here. It's McMystery let's you want to hear the the McMystery They solved the McMystery? Breaking McDonald's news, I've got The Scoop on Cosmic! This morning in a nation long obsessed with fast food. Fans on social media are loving this super-sized mystery. Alright here it is, Cosmics in Boultonbrook Illinois

1:22:39 It looks like there are going to be four drive-thru lanes. Online sleuths are zeroing in on what appears to be a fast food joint in the making in suburban Chicago, its name Cosmix. A new venture McDonald's CEO... I'm just gonna leave all that and go straight into the payoff. The payoff is the best part! That's an interesting take to end on and by the way guys we talked a lot about online sleuths right well basically before these signs were tarped it was kind of being kept under wraps to this degree. It's worth noting people online were doing everything they could to find out anything about Cosmix case in point one guy who posted these photos on X of what he says is Cosmix menu you can see if this is the menu, it goes all-in on drinks different iced teas and lemonades there's something called a galactic

1:23:28 boost, they have frappes in the food section we see like a spicy queso sandwich and pretzel bites. Now just to reiterate... The McMystery is solved but let's thank the company! Let's thank the guy who's paying us to do this horrible native ad again that is one person on Twitter who posted those photos McDonald's has yet to confirm anything official that being said another one of those earnings calls is slated for tomorrow so it's very possible guys that our knowledge on this topic could get supersized very soon. The marketing guy is gonna get a salary super sized for this. Keep us posted Maggie! Thank you Maggie, I hope they have egg McMuffins. The marketing guy's salary is going to get supersized for this. These people are horrible. They should be arrested

1:24:20 Sure, this is this is our news media. This would have come down to yes These are still news there who gives a shit these it's not across the street for me what difference does it make? Seriously believable these are serious journalists well that's what they liked it Well yeah, I mean like something like to think that and they all hate Trump So let's make sure they get that even so these are the same people that Trump did you know when they did the debate Trump was on with Hannity at the same time. Oh really? That's funny, I didn't know that. And so he did it... He made some... He was doing schtick, doing material, joking around and one of the things he said was yeah they want me to be a dictator. They keep saying i'm gonna be a dictator. I am not going to be a dictator wait wait! I'm gonna be a dictator for one day!

1:25:10 One day, oh yeah, he's gonna close the border and start drill drill drill then that's this is the end of his dictatorship So so NBC so I got this thing. It is the clip it says trumo trumans yes okay? uh-huh so Instead of seeing this as a joke You know, because Trump was kidding around doing anything he could to keep people's attention off the debate. Let me guess they took it so seriously they went all bananas? They went nuts! This is NBC Former President Donald Trump is taking heat for comments he made last night. In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Trump was asked if he would ever abuse power if he won the presidency. Take a listen to his response. We love this guy! He says you're not going to be a dictator are ya? I said nope nope nope other than day one we're closing the border and we're drilling drilling drilling after that I'm not

1:26:03 NBC's Ali Vitale joins us now from Tuscaloosa, Alabama ahead of tonight's Republican debate there. Ali what has the backlash been to those comments? What are we hearing from supporters of President Trump and from the Biden campaign? You're hearing very little from the Republican side And I wonder if that will change once candidates who are vying to actually be the nominee over Trump take the stage though They have been pretty slow in the past to condemn or even critique his remarks in this space. From President Biden though, we're hearing his campaign arms say believe Trump when he says this. Believe him when he says that he will be a dictator even if it's only for one day but these comments really can't be taken outside of a vacuum for Trump He has made comments akin to this over the course of the last several years praising dictators and authoritarians from North Korea to China

1:26:51 China, even joking when Xi Jinping several years ago was able to fully establish himself in control of the executive power there in China. Joking that that was something he wished he could do so this is certainly a new comment from the former president but one that tracks in a vein of comments we've seen from him over the course of the last few years Oh man. Can you believe these people? Well, so I did watch Tina and I watched about two commercial breaks worth of News Nation because that's what this debate aired on which was a nation so couple of comments one Cuomo I'm glad Chris Cuomo has a gig he fits in very well there

1:27:36 I think so. Yeah, i think it's good for him. I'm happy-I am kind of happy for him Two... Tina actually forbid me from doing this but I cannot help myself Megan Kelly her face is so thin It looks like the screen mask There's something up. It is too thin I mean, she means she looks gaunt. Gaunt? Yes! It's too thin it's like if you're like... She's half of her face You already answered the question. Gaunt. Early eclipse Well, I don't want to go over. I don't want a body shame that was expressedly foreboding That's why just the face looked like the screen mask it was weird

1:28:22 Weird. I'll go back and look at it, have it on tape. Yeah Chris Christie? He's only there to protect... Nimrod. That's his only job, all he did... All I saw him do was hey lay off her! I like her! I like Nikki Haley. Oh so he's a foil? Total foil. Vivek, that's the way apparently you pronounce his name, Vivek Patterson. He doesn't care. Yeah he had a great line though and i really enjoyed it. He said neither Christie or Haley who want to send your kids to go fight against Russia in Ukraine, or Joe Biden he said can answer...can give me the name of three provinces in eastern Ukraine. Which of course they couldn't! That was a genius move

1:29:13 Beautiful. That was really good and everything who cares everything else yeah, you know Vivek is just doing stuff It's funny it's good I don't know what his end as long game is well He's not gonna be vice president no of course I did get away I did get the boots on the ground about Christie No remember I was saying that people in South Dakota don't like her Yeah, I want to hear the stories okay, so this is from Craig Weinberg This is He's Sir Craig. One of the main issues with Christie is that she's a liar! She seemed to have more interest in national politics than South Dakota during the early days of COVID, she claims never shut anything down and let people make their own decisions except it was the speaker of The House at the time who had very different story he has receipts

1:29:59 to show that she actually wanted to give her health secretary full control, to shut down whatever they wanted. But the legislator in the middle of the night put a stop to it. She also says things like my budget, my plan when she's not writing anything. There is also the alleged affair with Corey Lewandowski that broke pretty big over the summer and that she has avoided talking about for years there was speculation that it was happening but the proof seems a lot more real now. She'll say whatever she needs to align with Trump all the thinking as she wants his VP spot She will get killed in a general election. Maybe, maybe So that was the main thing also farmers lobbied the Public Utilities Commission Oh this was she wanted She wanted carbon pipelines and was going against the farmers

1:30:49 So they don't really like her. She's not all that loved as people make her out to be, at least not in South Dakota. But she's got a look! She's got the look. She's got a good look. Yeah she's got a good patter or she's got a good spiel but she wouldn't get killed in the general election. She's not running for president nobody votes for the vice president anymore we're not in 1800s it's just a name on the ballot Take it up with Craig man...don't tell me I do have... You know, she doesn't look like the right fit to me. Although Trump has shown that he can't pick anybody. He can't pick the right people now so how is that gonna change? So i have an NPR clip one minute long which i think is about the debate The fourth Republican presidential primary debate is in the books Florida Governor Ron DeSantis former South Dakota... Notice how they always say it's a piss him off DeSantis

1:31:44 Isn't it? It's DeSantis. Yeah, I was DeSantis. NPR... DeSantis. Like, I do believe! Governor Ron DeSantis former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and ex-New Jersey Governor Chris Christie squared off last night at the University of Alabama Haley was the target for much of the night more so than former President Donald Trump who skipped the event Haley has been climbing in the polls of late. Pat Duggins with Alabama Public Radio spoke with some students in the audience afterwards Nikki Haley got the warmest applause as the four candidates took the stage in Tuscaloosa and the sharpest attacks. That included Vivek Ramaswamy who held up a handwritten sign reading, Nikki equals corruption that was just one thing that didn't impress University of Alabama freshman Charlie Barry. That was embarrassing seeing them talk over each other argue over each other I don't want to see that out of my presidential candidate i dont wanna see another Trump-er like that

1:32:46 The UA economics major was one of only 50 students allowed in to watch the debate. The audience for the Tuscaloosa campus venue was close to a thousand. For NPR News, I'm Pat Duggins in Tuscaloosa Alabama. It was donors special interest and donors Well, let a few students into 5050 students so we can get a bitch about it. I don't want to see that for my I don't want another Trump whatever we got has to definitely be a negative you get the right guy to me Hey find somebody one of the kids who hates Trump. That's all of them hate Trump All right would just make sure you get that in there. Just hate the Trump yeah, this is what you do? This all you do so I do

1:33:27 Yeah, he's got something about... Does Nikki Haley? All the left is promoting Nikki Haley. They will let them see her on the ballot Oh even Prof G and Kara Swisher are like I could live with Nikki Haley Really?! She's a warmonger man Totally They all are Umm..I'm having dinner with the oil baron tonight Ah okay So oh and i think that he....i don't know if he supports Nikki Haley but the industry sure does So, I'll get the lowdown. She's not gonna... she is no good. No she is no good! She is no good! This all says that there is no chance

1:34:12 This is like... Well, that's why the left wants to run her and they keep boosting her. Yeah. This is what the Republicans were really good at years ago. That's when they had that guy Eagleton. They would find people they'd promote to get him into the you know, the Republicans are very happy that George McGovern ran as the Democrat because after Kennedy was assassinated because he would have been a problem but McGovern He's not going to beat anybody. So you put them in, yeah okay run against Nixon good luck! That's too funny

1:34:49 I have a couple oddballs. I do have a 3x3 Oh, I was not prepared hold on second It's not one of the best it doesn't is this is there little long just telling our three by three producer well Do we ever three-by-three jingle? Yeah? I think we have that we do yes We do um at some time my computer's going slow today for some reason now with time for three by three experiment by JCD comparing stories from ABC, CBS and NBC! The never-ending three by three. Normally at the top of the show it's a different moment here this is something new it must be either really good or just mediocre. Well its kind of in between but it has a... It's about to shh...the weird little

1:35:40 Bull crap, these reports may all be bogus in fact about the attacks on the ships. In the Red Sea? From Yemen... Yeah yeah yeah Back and forth and back and forth I want to play the ABC NBC report then the CBS report is the only one that all of a sudden out of the blue as opposed to the other two reports introduces a whole new factor. Oh, okay. We'll start with ABC The Pentagon now says that the US has taken new defensive action in the Middle East A deadly U.S drone strike tonight this time in Iraq targeting militants who the Pentagon says were about to target American forces Here's Martha Raddatz

1:36:19 Tonight, the Pentagon revealing it conducted a deadly drone strike on militants in Iraq who the U.S says were planning to launch a drone attack on American forces five of the Iranian-backed militants were killed It came as a U.S. destroyer in the Red Sea spent more than seven hours on Sunday responding to multiple attacks. It began at 915 AM local time, the Pentagon said the USS Kearney tracked a ballistic missile fired from Iranian backed Houthis in Yemen landing in the waters near the cargo ship Unity Explorer

1:36:58 At 12 p.m., the Karni detects a drone from Yemen heading in its direction, the Navy crew shooting it down. Thirty-five minutes later, the Unity Explorer under fire again. This time, the missile hits the ship. The Karni responds as another inbound drone is detected and shot down. At 3.30 p.m., a third ballistic missile hits another cargo ship, there is damage reported but no casualties One hour later, a fourth ballistic missile hits a third cargo vessel Again the Carny racing to this ship to render aid as yet another drone is launched in the Carney's direction and shot down

1:37:46 The Pentagon blaming Iran for enabling these attacks using some of the strongest language we've heard about Iran. But it is unlikely the US will retaliate against Iran directly for these attacks, given that the Pentagon says they do not believe the USS Kearney was an intended target although Jake Sullivan, the National Security Advisor made clear that any response by the U.S. will be at a time and place of his choosing I have a couple questions before we get to the next one. One, this drone was that like a forearm like Reaper sized drone? Was it one of those... It seems unlikely they did no real damage didn't kill anybody No data We're shooting them down left and right This is a story as a hoax You know what i also here's And why aren't the aren't the Houthis fighting the battles they're supposed to be fighting against the Saudis

1:38:38 What are they shooting at us for in the middle of nowhere? Makes no sense. When it comes to the big money organizations in the United States, I mean, the military-industrial complex could take a page out of the pharma playbook man that's much more entertaining their stuff. They're not making this fun and entertaining. No one wants to hear this! They gotta spruce it up you know what I like? I like the body cams like when those uh the Houthis Uh, no. No, the Houthis they hijacked that ship like two weeks ago and they had you know they had the helicopter and they jumped out of the helicopter and then they got into the crew but it was all um it was all body cam footage to even have footage. It's pretty well done yeah but that's like a video game! It's like first person shooter video game. It's exactly the same thing now. It could have been a video game for all I know. It's getting pretty good

1:39:37 Well, there have been people that have sent video game footage into the news media and they picked it up as live reporting. I've fallen for it of course! Have you seen the new Grand Theft Auto? That's starting to look pretty good. Call of Duty... They're all dynamite. It's all good yeah so I bet we could say that we have footage from a war and just have our producers send us the right bits from Call Of Duty and we could just make a report and people would go viral So Lester Holt comes on with his report, which is a little long and it's the same basic thing. These missiles going back and forth we don't know they don't tell us any details about these drones or any of them

1:40:25 Are they made out of papier-mâché? Are they the ones that the Iranians build, that they give to the Russians? The motorcycle engines. We have no idea! They don't tell us anything and it's just... It's like a lot these are lousy reports Nearby in the Red Sea another dangerous situation appears to be escalating. In the latest chapter a US Navy destroyer rushed to the aid of commercial ships at the Pentagon says came under ballistic missile fire from Iranian-backed militias. Ballistic missile fire now? Oh, that's serious! We get late details now from Courtney Kuby at The Pentagon

1:41:02 Tonight, the White House pointing the blame squarely at Iran after an hours-long drama at sea Sunday that saw a U.S. military warship rush to aid three commercial vessels under fire. That gun, the weapons here are being supplied by Iran and Iran we believe is the ultimate party responsible for this. It began around 9 15am Sunday when a ballistic missile landed near a commercial ship in the Red Sea Then, at noon the USS Kearney a Navy destroyer intercepted the first of three drones fired towards commercial ships and the Kearney itself. Ballistic missiles later hitting all three of the cargo ships one after another none of the ship suffered major damage or casualties

1:41:46 Responding to each distress call, the carny found itself directly in the path of Houthi attack drones. The Pentagon says there are no indications the drones were targeting the Carny but still shot them down. The Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have targeted Israeli owned ships in the Red Sea before We do not believe that all three of the ships had ties to Israel and it goes to show you the level of recklessness that the Houthis are operating on In October, the Carney shot down cruise missiles and drones... Hold on Yeah, did you notice a little parsing that you can get away with it's like we have no evidence that all three of the ships are tied to Israel now Of course. It's all which means that two of them could have been It's just chicken shit stuff these people do this and get away with a ballistic missile Where was that and the ballistic missiles? I've seen the missiles they recovered from the

1:42:42 Some of the stuff that recovered from Gaza or like they look like hobbyist missiles. They're like ballistic, but five feet long You know what's interesting in all of this have you heard? Or seen a single story this week about Hamas shooting rockets into Israel I heard not this week But right after the ceasefire I heard about it Oh yeah No, but but it's been all this week right up until this morning Brian of London is there He's sending me videos are there they go You never hear about that. No, I don't know why call the carny found itself directly in the path of who the attack drones The Pentagon says there are no indications. The drones were targeting the carny but still shot them down The Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have targeted Israeli owned ships in the Red Sea before We do not believe that all three of the ships had ties to Israel and it goes to show you The level of recklessness that the Houthis are operating on in October

1:43:38 In October, the Qarni shot down cruise missiles and drones the Pentagon says were fired by Houthis towards Israel. Since then, the Houthis have repeatedly targeted ships in the Red Sea, the U.S. Navy shooting them down. And all of this comes as Iranian-backed militias continue to attack U.S. military bases in the Mideast despite U.S. retaliatory strikes We spoke to the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff today Is this evidence that the war in Israel and Gaza has really boiled over into a larger regional conflict? It could be, so that's one of things we want to track closely Accordingly, we've seen that U.S strikes have not deterred other Iranian-backed militias from attacking US bases So is the US now considering any action specifically against the Houthi rebels? Well Lester so far the us has not launched any strikes against the Houthi rebels recently But officials here tell us after this weekend's attack they are not ruling anything out

1:44:33 They just can't, these are the wrong reports. If they want to get a reason to bomb Iran they've gotta do something different this is not working. It stinks! And they're long too. Long stinkers. Way too long but then next one is interesting because it I think has a piece of information besides the fact by the way you seen these maps that keep showing? It looks like we have about 20 bases in this area, these areas Yeah hello America Yes. Geez, well anyway let's get the CBS report out of the way. This is the one I think that's most interesting. The escalating violence in Gaza is raising tensions across the entire region today. Today the White House pointed the finger directly at Iran after an American warship was forced to shoot down multiple drones that were targeting various commercial ships in the Red Sea. Stop it for a second haven't we been pointing the finger at Iran since the first

1:45:29 since this whole thing began on October 7th? Yes and I just... So why is this like she make it out to be sounding like it's new. I realize what they're doing wrong, all of a sudden hit me they need to intersperse these reports with those shots of Iranians going death to America! Death to America that's what they need to put in there This is not working. That would work, yeah I like that idea if i was producing there's no reason everything else they do is out of context you might as well do that You know with you get some mullahs there going death to America! Death to America then they could say they're chanting death to America

1:46:09 Death to America and the shooting ships, whatever. That's a good thing we're not producers for the network. You gotta bring it home you got to personalize this stuff We'd have the whole country in flames. We're targeting various commercial ships in the Red Sea CBS David Martin is at the Pentagon with new details. New details. Death to America! Iranian backed Houthi rebels in Yemen had already hijacked one commercial vessel in the Red Sea and now they have attacked three more hitting them with anti-ship missiles. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. Attacks on commercial shipping in international waters are totally unacceptable and have to stop. The Houthis had vowed publicly to attack Israeli shipping, but none of the vessels hit on Sunday had a current Israeli connection. It goes to show you the level of recklessness that the Houthis are operating on. Sullivan blamed Iran as much as the Houthis We're talking about the Houthis here they're the ones with their finger on the trigger Oh! But that gun

1:47:08 The weapons are being supplied by Iran. Three Houthi drones flew toward an American destroyer in the Red Sea, which had answered the distress calls from the ships under attack. The USS Kearney shot the drones down even though it was not the intended target. If left unchecked this could get more serious and more prevalent Retired Admiral Jamie Fogo says with one carrier task force in the Mediterranean and another in the Persian Gulf, the US has more than enough firepower with which to retaliate. Taking out the missile prior to hitting a target and taking out the launcher we're perfectly capable of doing that

1:47:51 A US official tells CBS News the Pentagon is considering striking targets in Yemen but warns that would only give the Houthis exactly what they want, which is to provoke a wider Middle East war. There was one retaliatory strike in the region this weekend when a U.S drone killed five Iraqi militants as they were preparing to attack American troops. The Iraqis? As they were preparing! First they read their minds Yeah, and they're Iraqis. This was not Iranians is our Rockies What was that all about? And we said that I we played a clip about three show two or three shows ago from Al Jazeera Where the Iraqi government told us to get the hell out of there because you're killing our people for no good reason Remember that yes Yes, and so this seems to be something going on in Iraq does not kosher

1:48:48 Yeah, I'm using the word kosher. That's probably the wrong context choice of words. Sorry. I don't think so. There you go everybody experiment by JCD grand experiment comparing stories from ABC CBS and NBC I do have two quick observations with observatory clips that i thought uh... i'd like to share. This is from NBC, this is the possibility of although I've already seen video of it on telegram so must be real as a possibility the following may happen

1:49:24 Israel says it's destroying Hamas in Gaza above ground and below, targeting what it says are 300 miles of Hamas tunnels. Military officials showed NBC News videos they say were taken in the northern Gaza city of Beit Hanun A soldier points to a Hamas tunnel outside of a classroom. Israel has blown up some, now a US official tells NBC News the Israeli military is exploring a new tactic flooding the tunnels with seawater Now it's interesting they always say seawater They always add that in there. And this triggered... This is biblical now, this is what's interesting about it. Judges 9 45 New International Version All that day Abimelech pressed his attack against the city until he had captured and killed its people then he destroyed the city and scattered salt over it I'm telling you these people-this whole region is biblically nuts Yeah totally They're going insane

1:50:29 That report from Richard Engel, which is questionable. I have a very short 24-second Gaza report from NBC which was connected to what you just played but there's an anomaly in here and i want to just mention it for a minute because It's gotten on my nerves. I mentioned the last show, now i'm going to mention it again. Intensifying up and down the besieged strip Israeli forces say they're battling three Hamas strongholds two in the north and one in the south The Israeli military says its launched around 250 airstrikes across Gaza In just the past day alone The Israeli military also releasing this video saying troops uncovered the largest stockpile of weapons so far

1:51:09 in the Gaza Strip. NBC News cannot verify that claim or when exactly this footage was recorded." Oh, because they got it from Telegram! Well, I don't care about that. How come they make that they do the disclaimer on that but they never do The disclaimer on the number of dead no ministry of truth up in Gaza says well instead we get 15 000 dead And they never where's the disclaimer for that? There's no We don't have any verification of that But yet when the israelis put out some information like that the cache of weapons, they put on a disclaimer. And I would say this is related to the mention of the fact that all these missiles are flying in there and nobody's covering it. NBC in particular is anti-Israel! I'm just gonna put that out there. Yeah not just that but we only tracked it a little bit when the whole Supreme Court thing was coming down on Israel which preceded all of this mess

1:52:08 Israel had really gone woke. You recall that Sir Brian of London was explaining to us what these protests were about, then it was like he said it's comparable to Black Lives Matter in the United States which means which to me means it'll have a similar outcome where millions, hundreds of millions of dollars goes in and then it goes away. Cities are destroyed and the people make off with the loot and you don't hear from them again. And that's the end of it. Now Turkish radio and television TRT I love getting their slant on things because they hate Israel They're bringing up something that has changed in Israeli politics

1:52:54 And here comes. Another crisis seems to be brewing for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and this time it's with his defense minister Yoav Gallant The two were to host a joint conference on Saturday but Gallant was an no-show I suggested to the defense minister tonight to hold a joint press conference and he decided what he decided. The two aren't strangers to disputes, Netanyahu had fired Gallant in March for objecting to his controversial judicial reform proposal Gallant's dismissal was reversed weeks later and the proposed legislation passed but being challenged in the Supreme Court. Unfortunately, there is a tension between Netanyahu and Gallant and this is not new. Several months ago, Netanyahu decided to dismiss Gallant from his position as Defense Minister

1:53:46 But, frankly this is what distinguishes Netanyahu. Netanyahu cannot see anyone any minister taking independent steps that might be considered a threat to Netanyahu. The rift between Netanyahu and Galen has deepened because of the ongoing war and the prime minister is facing mounting pressure domestically for the security and intelligence lapses that happened on October 7th and internationally to accept the ceasefire The latest polls show his popularity has plummeted to an all-time low and it's believed the veteran politician has sought to prevent other members of a security cabinet including Gallant from receiving credit for securing the release of Israelis under the hostage deal. Sounds to me like they're gonna end this the same way they're gonna end Ukraine. Bibi takes the blame for everything. That's what seems like

1:54:42 That's what all this that's a good plan. They should hurry up because it's messy I mean, he's gonna do as much damage as you can before that happens Yes in biblical fashion some and even people who hate BB are all like yeah we still got to do this Well, that's typical And also, you know as in the West we can't really imagine what that's like. We can't imagine this centuries-old dispute that just keeps on going and it's hard for people to imagine and looking at it from a Western lens is wrong

1:55:22 We just we just can't imagine what this is like. There's no way well, we're gonna What Europe is gonna learn? Well Europe's always close to it yeah, and Europe's gonna learn I'm gonna we always slide somehow we get out of the deal at some point Yeah, we're isolated. We are we're landlocked word ocean locked your ocean lock ocean locks um have a couple of other things here that I wanted to play this for you. The troll was like, we're assholes! Well yeah there's that... There is a mental health crisis of pilots Yes yes there is large mental health That's why pilots are doing shrooms

1:56:13 Here's the mental health of pilots. I want you to just your feedback on it, i got this clips for you. Okay the mental health of America's commercial airline pilots is taking center stage today at the nation's capital The National Transportation Safety Board or NTSB is holding a summit on that issue in Washington On Monday the Federal Aviation Administration announced a new committee to look at the pilot mental health and identify barriers that discourage pilots from reporting mental health issues NBC News aviation correspondent Tom Costello has more When you board a flight, you assume the pilot is mentally fit to fly. But aviation and mental health experts say current regulations cause too many pilots to keep their struggles a secret leading to mental health breakdowns some in-flight

1:56:57 Today, the NTSB is holding a summit with experts to develop solutions. What's unsafe is not getting people the help they deserve Take the case of veteran pilot Joseph Emerson We've got the guy that tried to shut engines down out of the cockpit In October, Emerson tried to shut down the engines of an Alaska Air flight while hitching a ride in the cockpit A grand jury is now indicting him on 83 misdemeanor counts of reckless endangerment and one count of endangering an aircraft. Emerson has pleaded not guilty in court filings he claimed he was having a mental health emergency, he told police he'd been depressed for six years had recently lost a friend and had taken psychedelic mushrooms 48 hours prior to the flight

1:57:43 Experts say contributing to the bigger problem, the FAA relies on pilots to self-report mental health issues. While periodic medical exams require pilots to disclose if they're in mental health treatment... ...the exams do not include in depth psychological evaluations A recent Inspector General report found this limits the FAA's ability to mitigate safety risks because pilots are reluctant to disclose mental health conditions due to the stigma and fear it will hurt their careers. This is absolutely true And I've heard a lot about this. There's huge stigma, you have to self-report and pilots of course are not going to self report but that's no different from train conductors, people on the road your neighbors everybody's in a mental health crisis because we went through a very traumatic time

1:58:39 Yeah, and they were...and everyone was traumatized. That's the definition of a traumatic time. By the media and the government! Yes! And a lot of pilots you know they were forced to take medicine they didn't want to under severe duress some of them have other health problems I don't want to disclose and the same goes for air traffic control yeah But, you know this is all just a prelude to getting the pilots out of the cockpit. You know I'm waiting for Elon Musk to pop up and go, oh I have a solution AI can fly them really. Let's play part two of this We need to have a system that allows people to be more forthcoming and to have treatment for

1:59:24 issues that shouldn't keep you out of the cockpit. On Monday, the FAA announced it is creating a special committee now to identify barriers that discourage pilots from reporting mental health issues. Getting fired! The FAA says most conditions if treated will not disqualify a pilot from flying We have to normalize mental healthcare we have to make sure the choice isn't receive treatment or fly The Airline Pilots Association says it supports these initiatives and also wants the FAA to fund a peer support training program for pilots that would encourage them to confide in each other and help connect them with mental health resources, to keep them in the cockpit. Back to you. So do you have any other questions? Because this is not new. Pilots are known drinkers... Why they making news out of it

2:00:23 Well, I... No one's going to fly in for at least a decade. They really don't want you flying at all, they know what? They don't want you to leave your home. They want you to stay in your 15 minute city. You want you to shut up city and that's the 15 minutes cities to give away. Yeah she wants you to shut up and stay at home work by remote vote Democrat Democrat Don't go anywhere and get be trans I don't know it's they don't want you flying that is so obvious no And they're going to make it very expensive with carbon credits. We'll still be doing the show when that happens and they want to bring in more bullcrap AI stories, I'm sure! Oh yeah... I'm just waiting on where's Elon? Come on tell me Elon

2:01:11 Well, again I can see it easier to have the AI pilot. It's not him, it was the rockets. Have you seen a...I guess Kali Kanis has a new podcast called The All In Podcast and he's bringing in some bookies? No! He had that for years The All In Podcast. Oh no, I didn't know it was that long. Why are you watching this stuff? He looks different on this thing because he had Tucker on and went on about stuff And there were couple very funny moments where acting as though him and Tucker run the same league, yeah. As interviewers but I don't know if you've seen this but he's got a different look Calacanis looks like the tenor in a Canadian barbershop quartet That's not different that's his look! I don't remember him looking that square No...I don't know do you have a clip for this? no i didn't decide not to get it

2:02:10 It's probably better. What is Tucker doing? He just he's just doing interviews everywhere and then he puts the thing on X and what is he doing, what does anybody doing you know the podcast industrial complex finally crumbled this past week Glorious moment. One out of every six employees of Spotify won't be around next year, the company is making those deep cuts to its payroll as it looks cut expenses. Top executives blame higher interest rates saying that they make borrowing for capital expenditures more expensive. The affected employees will receive several months severance the cut follows two previous layoffs this year a total of 800 employees were let go there you go

2:02:57 Worked out great. That one billion dollar investment worked out great Well, I did for the guys who got the billion well What are we drinking? Oh it's a lagoon eaters. There we go fresher oh Poppy or hoppy hoppy so that you're drinking a beer basically No It's just a hop flavor is actually mildly hot flavored sparkling water And who makes this? It's everybody's, everybody is talking about it. Everyone, they are now. So it's beer basically it's like a shandy. It's not beer. It's just water that has hops in it You're drinking Shandy There is no malt there's no alcohol Do they still make that on the can anywhere? Shandy I haven't seen it for years Oh man this beer was 7 up

2:03:54 And it's called the... Do you remember the gin, beam and coke in a can? In a can. I never had it. That was during the show. I think I recall that. It was a brief thing No, I like the shandy. It's like 2% alcohol. Woo! Yeah you could buy it in a can. Beautiful Well with that i'd like to thank you for your courage since you're drinking Shandy on the job and say hello to my friend on the other end ladies and gentlemen please welcome the one and only wait but that's the man who put the C in the companion products The One And Only Mr John C DeMora

2:04:31 Well, in the morning to you Mr. Adam Curry In the morning to all ships that see boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there In the morning to the trolls! Hello trolls hold on I know im coming to ya early so hands up! 1846 on the troll count today. 1846. It's right on the money We are slowly moving our executive producer segment more towards the beginning of the show as our PhDs have tapered off Of course, the promotion ended so we're going towards the end and I think we only really have eight Eight executive and associate executives today So this is where just it's just the end of that is the end of the end of the year is how it works although

2:05:18 The 31st of December or the 30th of December, I think. What is it? 321? No, it's the 31st. The 31st is a show day isn't it? It's like this super power draw. 1-2-3... Oh! 1-2-3-1-2-3 there you go Yeah, that's gonna be great and we'll be doing this show then Yeah, one two three one two three. I don't know what you can do it then you $123 maybe hundred twenty-three thousand one hundred and twenty three hundred twenty three thousand dollars be dynamite John Adam will fly in and have dinner with you oh yes Tell you what a hundred twenty three thousands we will both fly in clean your house What else well? I'm down about the house cleaning but we won't have dinner We'll bring a house somebody to clean the house

2:06:08 We do love our trolls. Our trolls are here to listen live and to troll! Now I still have not replied any posts on Noah Jindal Social as it just devolves into intermigration... I've not seen that any evidence that you have yet or haven't? Well, now you sound like mainstream news. I have not posted anything because every single time- You're sick of it?! It's it's no good, and it's not. It's not the you're the one who set it up But it's it's not the people if you have to understand. It's the system The system the message them then the media is the message which is the old Marshall McLuhan idea I would say that's true Yes Yeah He his theory was that it's not any it's not the kind of nothing but the media itself whatever media books TV radio in this case social media yeah

2:07:01 It has its own, it does something to your brain that's very specific to the media itself. Yes correct and it hasn't been extrapolated to social media but McLuhan's idea but I guess what that's your basic thought? And what's surprising is that it happens without algorithms. I thought algorithms made this happen But that's not what it is. It's people are so narcissistic They need to post their thousand memes. Then they need to tag me and say, I don't care what you say we're going to be like this forever bitch! You know stuff like that. I haven't seen that one but it's kind of the gist yeah maybe That is basically what is is and then people saying Adam wanted a utopia no I didn't It was a mastodon it was cool I just set up a server And then when it became too much

2:07:56 time management for me. I just gave up and then, you know, luckily Aaron took over but he's not posting much either. I think he's sick of it too because that's all that is big at that and it's not our people And a lot of people try to manage it but then when they see someone going off the rails the worst thing you can do was say hey man calm down! It doesn't work That'll do it! It doesn't work and I think it's because It's when you can reply to someone and create your own thread, and it has the same equal weight equal size as the original. There is something fundamentally wrong that doesn't work for human beings That is just what it is And in that regard I think Twitter and Facebook and Instagram...I agree with Nimrod Haley! I think you should have to register with your real name Because then they will all go away because no one will do anything anymore No one

2:08:51 What'll happen is that people will find workarounds. They'll find workarounds, people are not gonna do that they're gonna find work around and my real name all of a sudden's gonna be something you know some other phony name. Well we know you- There's no way you can't there's no way you can police that you could phonie up driver's licenses it just gets worked around Well, I don't know. The internet invites again the media is the message the internet invites anonymity and if you try to squash anonymity workarounds like all tech workaround comes around and boom You got no end in you've got anonymity again in a different form. I'm all for anonymity But you know on your own blog? I'm all for anonymity post away do whatever you want on your on your sub stack not on social media

2:09:43 there I think just to get rid of it. It's not doable, you're not getting rid of it is that it's here to stay? I'm voting for Nikki Haley she's gonna force us on knowledge and social... She's gonna fix nothing she's another blowhard politician anyway I've just given up by the way I played that clip with Trump saying I'm going to be a dick chair for one day and then they made a big fuss about it can I use this kind of rhetorical question because Trump supposedly is it you know he's the liars liar and he's 30,000 lies how come everything? He says is a lie except this Take him at his word

2:10:28 I'm sorry. I thought you want me to play the clip again? Oh, yeah No, no, I don't wanna play the clippy and I'm just gonna say they sing Oh, no if he says you're gonna be here got take him at his word You gotta take him in his word He's been a bullshitter since the get-go and they call him out on being one And he's a liars liar But yet in this situation gotta take him at his word make up their minds I see well, you know The line I think is when someone tells you what they are believe them That's my favorite. When someone tells you who they are, you should believe them. Believe them! Yeah yeah yeah you're right but he's full of crap I love all the this like now the Bronx you know all the man on the streets off that shows up on YouTube and on the reels and shorts well for Trump The Hood is for Trump They never put that on television

2:11:22 That's the best. They don't put anything on TV. Anyway, so I am a big fan of the anonymous trolls in the troll room. I think this is a great outlet. I think it's therapeutic. It's very good if you are not already trolling along on show day which now you have to do it live and does not for everybody. It's not easy for everybody to be doing this but if you can, this is therapeutic! You go in there, you go nuts You can have a crap name, you can name yourself whatever you want. You can insult me... You know, the only thing that gets you cut off or kicked off is if you post flood posts like post a whole bunch of things in row. Otherwise there's white Mike says we need white Mike just the fact that he's white Mike We hate you Adam Yeah exactly this is great Mike. We got racist in there but it's good because related to big Micah wonder It's like everybody has this Tourettes when they get up

2:12:25 They just go crazy. It's beautiful, but there is no permanent record so it's not going to hurt you on a job interview You don't have to say who you are No one is tracking your IP address Nobody cares Do whatever you want And its funny I mean I'm logged in all the time I've just walked by my computer and they're really going crazy now That's right! Let it out trolls let it all out You can become a troll and it you know do what pilots pilot commercial pilot should get in the troll room and just go nuts and say whatever they want and feel about their company, the FAA. During a pilot podcast because we of course this noagendastream.com is 24-7 We have all kinds of podcasts on there And a lot of them are live and you could just go nuts

2:13:15 I'm all for that. That is good, that is healthy." I don't know why you say one's good and the other isn't? Because this isn't... no record! This goes, this scrolls off it's done but you can't comment after- Everything on your agenda social scrolls off Yeah but you know what I mean It's different And then you sit there refreshing Oh did someone reply yet to my post My awesome meme Did someone do anything yet No You can also go to trollroom.io, this is where you can listen to the stream. Now all the apps are starting to do the live stuff it's great at podcastapps.com, The Modern Podcasts, Fountain is doing their live stuff now Podverse, Podcast Guru, CurioCaster, Castamatic everyone's on board now or get we even dare him into a live concert on December 20th and 21st in video

2:14:10 I mean, we are kicking Spotify's ass. Pathetic over there and what are we doing with chewing gum? With chewing gum and gaffer tape that's how we do it at Podcasting 2.0 We are value for value as you heard earlier You cannot monetize the network none of it worked Everyone went out of business. It's very sad I mean, I'm sad for the people at Spotify They already couldn't make money because the record companies own everything and the minute you raise your prices The record companies go okay We're gonna ask more for our license which they did and then you know that a whole idea was hey Look at all these millions of podcasts were free let's make money off of those guys Yeah how'd that work out Spotify? No

2:14:59 So I hope that those thousands of people will get jobs elsewhere. Or if you're really into podcasting, I'm sure you can do it... If you're willing to take a step back and build something over time and not go on higher celebrities that no one cares about. Oh! I feel so much better now with 10 producers. There's this great article that runs through all the economics of it And they were getting $100 CPM in 2018 which is unheard of. Well, Leo was getting $100 per CPM Really? Yeah

2:15:40 Early on. In 2015 maybe or even earlier than that Well, when did we first... what was our first year? Our first year was 2008 2007 Okay well he was just in 2007 he started So it was uh in the 2008 2009 2010 era He was getting 100 CPM Just so everyone knows what that means That means a hundred dollars per thousand people that are listening But here's the funny thing It's not based on people who are listening It's based on downloads And Apple just released iOS 17, which you can't refuse the upgrade. It updates and it's like you don't own your phone, Apple owns your phone so they update you and now literally the CEOs of these podcast networks are saying well our downloads are down because of Apple changing the way they do it because Apple now doesn't download stuff you're not listening to

2:16:34 So they're admitting that they had at least 15% fraudulent numbers. Yeah, that's what they're admitting to and saying your downloads aren't down they were exaggerated Yeah. Exactly, so we never had to deal with that now what did that mean? We never got no Joe Rogan offers... That was great English yeah we also don't have videos. Got no Joe Rogan offers I told you and I moved to Texas and my mom's just gonna talk like this from now on iIdon't care what you think! I love my truck Where's that guy? I love my truck. Where is that guy?! And I love what I do, exactly!

2:17:22 Incredibly, when we went to what we coined as the value for value model which means hey here's everything it's all premium it's all top-notch. We're not putting anything behind a paywall there are no levels there is no tote bag... There are no secret rooms! No secret room this is us take us how you want take whatever you want do whatever you wanna do with us Start your own thing on the side. Point to us, do it all." All we ask is for time, talent and treasure whatever its value... Whatever the value is you get out of it you send it back whenever it's handy for you that's why we're still here 16 years later can't say that about you know the top award-winning show put there were shows that won Peabody's a Peabody Award at Spotify they are getting ax now

2:18:12 And we also don't have video of us sitting with our headphones on. Ooh, look at us! We're cool I got it You should have... you know what? Cans! Cans?! You should do like a pool boy beanie would look good on you that would be hilarious That would! That would be good! We should do one with video where you wear one of those beanies Yeah! That would look great! I'm in! Okay well we can do live video We can do it on the modern podcast apps. So instead, it's just value for value now we have phenomenal time talent and treasure contributions one that has taken up a lot of time and a lot of talent and And has worked successfully for over a decade is no agenda art generator which unfortunately had some kind of critical error

2:19:03 And Sir Paul Couture, now I hope it comes back because you know what's really rough about this? In the modern podcast apps we have chapters and we have art that goes with the chapters. They were all linked from the Noah Gen to Art Generator so now they're all broken All of those images are broken except moving forward we're going to do it a different way Well just use the main image No, but I know what you mean. Yeah it was it was cool yeah well It'll come back and and I have faith in Sir Paul Couture I really do And we have backups of the whole site so we can always bring back the images and the links at a new domain But he still hasn't been able to fix yet

2:19:54 Expect the next generation launch sometime Saturday afternoon December 9th 2023 and he says you will have to reset passwords as I'm using a more modern salt and hash for them. He's going to salt and hash salt and hash Yeah, this guy is going out there that's why it's taking so long because do using salt and hashes Complicated it really I don't know, I never heard of it. I love you, Paul. He has a job. He's got a job. If it's not up Sunday we can wait brother don't worry about it but that's an excellent example we've got noagentomeetups.com We have Marco Maria who organized the meetup! All of these are ways that you feed back into system boots on the ground like Craig this is what makes The Noah Jenna Show unique It is a postmodern media model

2:20:51 I don't think anybody has been able to rival it. I wish more people did it, of course we have many people within the Noah Jenner Nation who do it It is the only way forward The only way for everything You can't monetize... once the network was open and you can't create artificial scarcity of airtime. How many ads do you want to run? You can run them indefinitely! CPMs are a race to the bottom, take it from John and Al. You like that huh? Yeah that's a goodie That's a sub stack for ya right there So we'd like to thank the artist who helped us out for episode 1613 And we titled that one Fossil Foolz I was informed We have used that title previously

2:21:43 Somewhere in the 1100s. Oh, I know that's how you remember it? That's always just like yeah In fact i'm not supposed to remember you're the one who uh is assigned them forever memory well And typically my memory does that okay so what yeah well this way I see it It's just I'm disappointed in my own Failure. Yeah, my hand on my own foot let me see what it was agenda Let me see which one it was in which episode 16 Oh 1197 1197 Which was 20 year was 2019? It's only four years ago I should have known I should have known now the art which was done by Sir Dirty Jersey Whore is

2:22:36 We both liked it. It didn't take long to choose this a lot of people commented that it looked very much like 1980s album art from journey, I think there's something to that actually okay and And well the piece I liked the best was the one he did Was that also him? Yeah, he did those two pieces. It was too much and way too small for artwork I used it on the newsletter because i just liked the piece What actually was it? But what is like The Game of Life or whatever it is you just liked

2:23:16 I just liked it. You just liked it? What else did we look at, um... Well you like the one with the coal but- No no no! Oh yeah yes, The Clown With The Coal Yeah I kind of like that. Nessworks Yeah, that was fossil fools. But we both agreed that no one knows what coal looks like anymore so... Exactly! Nobody has a clue. It wouldn't fly at all We did not understand methane eugene from Francisco Scaramanga? We didn't get that one? What's thane I don't know. I didn't know either. Who is thane? The yeah-no great question from Nessworks but it didn't say great questions said Great Question Mark

2:23:58 So there was just problems and it's tough. We have to pick from those 10 lone pieces that Yeah, that are it's not our regular 30.

You've been more winning lately than I have so I feel like I should be subjugated Here we go Trash takes itself out every single time A little too long, I think. Little too long How about this one? Woo! Democracy forever dude, we did it! Kind of like that one I don't know what he said. Democracy forever dude we get it! You couldn't hear that really? Okay here we go. Democracy forever dude, WE DID IT! Yeah well i could hear pretty well... Okay got two short ones Alright One so short its gotta zero seconds maybe not even be on here Anyway uh easy It's just that easy! Ah it's just as unintelligible is mine There you go There ya go

2:45:07 I think there you go is probably the best of all of them. Well, that's the clearest Yeah That usually is what wins Yes I love how people always people who send us these things should note that yeah if you can't hear it or It can't be more than two seconds for two seconds as the max to so and also If it just got music behind it Or its muddy or it has a funny and we're not looking We're not looking for people saying in the morning No Hey this guy said in the morning No, no. We say it enough. That's not it that's not it I have a couple of clips that I've been sitting on and want to play Okay Because nobody knows about this is not being played by the mainstream media Somehow...I think this is an op And I say one of our intelligence agencies is doing It's called the white paper movement in China

2:46:03 In an event right outside of the US Capitol this evening, a group of Chinese dissidents and human rights activists are trying to remind the world that the Chinese Communist Party's grip on its people may not be as strong the white paper movement itself. So just to take you back to exactly how this all started, well around this time last year there were tens of thousands of Chinese people who took to the streets holding up pieces of blank white paper in protest of China's zero COVID policy but not only in protest of that policy also calling for an end to the Chinese Communist Party and the dictatorship. What that would take to risk your life

2:46:46 in a regime like that to speak on behalf of truth and protest tyranny, I think that should give us all who are lucky enough to live in the free world some courage to do whatever we can to protect the freedoms we have. Year after year more and more Chinese people are standing up to demand their basic human rights Year after year the change is happening. He took it upon himself to read off a list of names of people who were actually involved in the white paper protest movement, who are still being detained in China today I also got a chance to catch up with lawmakers about the commemoration of this white paper freedom movement and they said this is something that should be encouraged because it is a beacon of hope. So, it's actually a little glimmer of hope that China's stronghold on its people is not as strong as they think it is. And encourage them to continue with that for the cause of freedom around the world is to acknowledge

2:47:40 their sacrifice and And applaud their sacrifice. I think it's important to continue to do that, and this has to happen organically within the country Wait a minute so the Chinese organically my ass so they're holding up white pieces of paper Yeah isn't that just shouldn't people be making memes out of that? Writing on this whole thing has been repressed in terms of our mainstream coverage interesting So but I mean, which I think is makes it not work or somebody told him. I don't know I have I think there's an op involved here But like I don't understand why this hasn't been picked up as already a year old this movement And it's discussed as such the white paper movement you've never heard of it. I never heard of it No

2:48:28 I think this is a part two to this class. Yes, there is and this comes at a time when there's a new undiagnosed pneumonia breaking out in China and spreading causing hospitalizations to spike now This is raising concern among lawmakers here in Washington DC many of those whom I spoke to said that they're very concerned about the issue of transparency In the data coming out from from China saying that they don't even know how serious this pneumonia is because China recently covered up the COVID-19 pandemic which caused millions of deaths around the world. Okay, well interesting this may coincide with I have two clips what's going on in the UK as everything now all deaths everything is being blamed on Boris Johnson

2:49:12 You'll recall that they had parties, they had parties. We had a clip the other... what was the clip? Oh yeah he's the one who screwed up to Ukraine thing you went through Ukraine. He's being blamed for everything. Yeah and so now they have these inquiries because it had the whatsapp messages and supposedly Boris Johnson said Mid-March 2020, when most European countries were under lockdown to stop the spread of COVID

2:49:49 In the UK, it was almost business as usual. It's only on March 23rd that former Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a first lockdown. You must stay at home. Former officials told the inquiry into the handling of COVID that taking the decision so late likely cost lives. I want to take this opportunity if i may my lady to apologize to the victims who endured so much pain, the families who endured so much loss as a result of mistakes that were made by government. Boris Johnson allegedly put the economy first sacrificing vulnerable people he's accused of saying this his advisors Did you hear him say let the bodies pile high in their thousands or it is only killing 80 year olds?

2:50:44 There's been a few different versions of this, of these stories knocking around. And you heard that? I heard that in the Prime Minister study. Former officials have told the inquiry that Johnson often changed his mind and struggled to understand the science behind the pandemic. Well i think i'm right in saying that the prime minister at the time gave up science when he was 15 And I think he'd be the first to admit it wasn't his forte and that he did struggle with some of the concepts. We did need to repeat them often." Here's what's interesting... Hold on a second, this sounds like bullcrap to me! Well they have the WhatsApp messages that's the problem. Yeah well okay, I guess those can't be phonied up

2:51:36 No, no I think it's the real deal. Okay well he hasn't denied it so there you go. Well he is kind of... but you know what? Anybody could have said that. It doesn't matter, he's the fall guy but what is interesting is the hoity-toity Brits The journalists, the news agents UK These are famous journalists they do their podcasts and news agents it is a very successful podcast its financially successful so that amazing by itself So they're talking about this and then they reluctantly Give Trump a compliment.

2:52:25 into the US because they were so alarmed at Covid coming in. We just thought it was racist at the time, didn't we? It's like oh another one of them! Exactly you thought that Trump was trying to kind of re-litigate the trade battle with China in different ways and this was his new way of looking... A Muslim ban a China ban who is next?! But there you were at the end of January in Washington DC with Trump announcing no more flights from China. And Boris Johnson is saying way into February, oh we didn't really realize how... In Washington I think they did realize that it was pretty serious early on."

2:53:02 is how cavalier they are now about their own reporting at the time. Because that's all you heard, the ACLU came out and said Trump was racist against Asians. And I don't even know if they had this, I don't think they had this podcast out but certainly the companies they worked for at that time were all like Trump's a racist horrible man and now they can't... Oh wait! I'm going to do something I don't do. I'm going to say Trump has good handle on it because of the time we just thought oh he is being racist That means as a journalist you suck You suck It's unreal

2:53:41 Anyway, what time is it? Oh! It's time. What do we want? Good news When do you want it? Now please We want some good news before we leave the show Alright I got a... this is uh.. This is the Idaho clip and this is uhh one of those local clips that goes on five, six minutes of good news. They're giving some woman some love and all I need is just... All I have here is the setup. I cut the rest out where they actually go knock on her door and they give her these awards because the setup itself was good enough and it's good news-y enough and it's one of those local things that could've been cut if it was national news to be a minute and half instead of five or six minutes

2:54:24 So here we go. works hard labor jobs like at potato warehouses and she's not afraid to get her hands dirty when it comes to working. She makes tortillas and other food offerings for her neighbors, she's constantly making new friends last year without any prompting or recognition she knitted many cute owl beanies and donated several large boxes to primary children's hospital in Utah. She lives alone

2:55:01 But she never loses her spirit of friendship, compassion or giving. Well Martha has had a broken toilet for quite some time She hasn't been able to afford to get it fixed and Secret Santa asked if we could come and make sure that toilet gets fixed He's paying for a plumber To fix the problem AND get her a new toilet if she needs it He is also giving her groceries for quite a bit $2,000 to the grocery store And we have $5,000 from Secret Santa just to let her know that she's loved I think we should go surprise her. Awwww! Now that was beautiful! Good news everyone, good news! Yes thank you You know what? People are loving this segment John. It's true So you know where i'm getting...I'm starting to get these now from Mimi She is she's a good news lady isn't she She's a good news lady and she went and she's digging up these good news stories Oh see I'm telling ya people like this stuff

2:55:58 I got plenty backed up already. I got the dog in the tree story coming out That'll have to wait until Sunday, and no everyone's you know your pining for it Please hold off it will be here on Sunday the dog in the tree story that is it we will return on Sunday with more media deconstruction just for you I think We gave you your money's worth which for many of you was nothing So, thanks for that. Thanks for that! Coming to you from the heart of Texas Hill Country in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from Northern Silicon Valley where I remain I am John C Dvorak Up next on No Agenda Stream Trollroom.io The modern podcast app you're using Oh look at that DH Unplugged It's the most recent episode from Tuesday titled Too Many Bulls And I Love My Crocs

2:56:50 Remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA, no agenda donations dot com until Sunday adios mofos a hooey hooey and such The death of Henry Kissinger the Henry Kissinger was a famous He's the worst Famous guy but he is the worst He killed millions and he is a war criminal Yes When was this? Ah! He has been involved in some of the most reprehensible policies on the part of the United States. The assassination of the president of Chile, Allende and support for a brutal murderous dictatorial regime. The extending needlessly of the Vietnam War falsely claiming in 1972 that peace was at hand supporting a murderous dictatorship in Pakistan as well

2:57:48 as other of the dictators around the world. Few people have had a hand in so much death and destruction in different parts of the world than Henry Kissinger Three, in particular suggest that Henry Kissinger could have been accused of war crimes One is Cambodia The other is Pakistan And the other is East Timor I see a war criminal What did he do it? Do what? Do it? Do it? Did he specifically do...do you know because I tried to look at that I do! He died while being Jewish I This is what happened. Oh, that could be it We need another Jew to blame I don't think so! This is Hillary Clinton I even know where she's walking And there are protesters Yep, there they are at the Palestinian flags What did Hillary do? Existence Just existence It existed I mean, this is just... She's not even Jewish As we came We saw He died

2:58:55 Doesn't really matter. What difference at this point does it make? I feel life's a game. You sometimes win or lose and though i may be down right now at least, I don't work for Jews But the fact of the matter is the truth needs to be told 10 years ago when the bathroom situation came up The Al Qaeda wasn't wearing a uniform you'd see anyone walking down the street they all had man dresses on you didn't know if someone had a bomb

2:59:44 an IED attached or not? Maybe you smoke the terrorists on your southern border, you go ahead and we're rooting for you. We're gonna smoke the terrorists on our own southern border. That's why we have to focus on things like cyber, on space, on artificial intelligence, and not just the regular things that we've always focused on. Were you saying that it's time to bomb Iran No, I was not saying it's time to bomb Iran. You know? Look! Here is the bottom line you can boo about it all you like and continue deny reality. Buckle your seat belts there will be a new sheriff in town. Do everybody a favor just walk yourself off that stage enjoy a nice meal and get the hell out of this place. When it comes to Nikki... As the most obnoxious blowhard in America And the baby died
