LIE-DAR

00:00 Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak It's Sunday February 25th 2024 This is your award winning Kidmarnation Media Assassination episode 1637 This is no agenda We've got Israeli moon bases and we're broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA region number 6 In the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where we all say Happy Chinese New Year! I'm John C. Dvorak It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning. Yeah, isn't this when they start spreading some disease? Yeah. Badly. Yeah it was around this time... Was it three years ago or four years ago I can't remember now. Eh, you know how time flies. I think it was almost four years ago Can you believe how long we've been dealing with that bullcrap?! Well yeah thats what ya do

00:56 It had to be almost four years ago because it was right when Trump was leaving office. Yes, and I went to... Actually it was before that so during Trump's administration he had to deal with nine months of it That's right! He was blocking flights from China Yeah Remember? He was racist Racist, racist Xenophobe And here we are four year later Did you get your booster? Still gotta get more boosters. I need to schedule, it works great! Terrific. I need to schedule...I'm lagging and the UK Office for National Statistics you know they find these excess deaths very annoying so what do we do just like we do on in the financial markets when we don't like the numbers what do we do?

01:49 We just change the way we count. During and since the coronavirus pandemic, we've generally seen more people die than would expect. We call these deaths above average excess deaths. Different organisations have used different ways to calculate this each with merit and particular uses for example for planning health interventions and identifying emerging threats In the spirit of continuous improvement, we've been working with independent experts and those across government and the devolved nations to develop a common UK-wide approach. Using our new approach today's release estimates 11 000 excess deaths in 2023

02:31 While this is lower than our previous estimate, our new method accounts for the growth and ageing of the population. These are key factors in understanding how many deaths we'd expect to see and whether the number of deaths is below or above this estimate. Looking more closely at last month's 2023 there were actually negative excess deaths meaning fewer deaths on average being registered Further back across the pandemic the trends and peaks in excess deaths are the same using the new method as they were under the old. It's important to note there are estimates of excess deaths, just that... estimates! They can't be counted individually unlike death registrations which haven't changed." I mean could it get first of all nice music bed office for national statistics

03:25 They just didn't like it. Oh, it was 11 thousand so we just changed it and now its negative! So shut up conspiracy theorists And by the way these are estimates we can't really even know Huh? The insurance companies seem to know They seem to know Oh yeah they're not going along with any of this No no they know the numbers I mean im flabbergasted Im not really surprised but still kind of flabbergasted It's crazy. Not quite as crazy as the latest breaking news, breaking news, breaking news they're at it again oh my god we've got to deploy fighter jets! Tonight in the skies above the western United States NORAD sending up fighter jets to track a high altitude balloon flying at 43 000 to 45 000 feet

04:16 An official tells us the balloon is some 50 feet tall with a two foot payload. Its contents unknown and they do not believe the balloon is being steered remotely, the military first spotting it over Utah. It is now drifting east. No word on who sent the balloon, where it's going or what its mission might be. The Biden administration keenly aware it comes just a year after a Chinese spy balloon was spotted flying clear across the country President Biden ordering it shot down off the coast of South Carolina That balloon was much larger than the balloon currently drifting across the country. Its payload alone was the size of three buses tonight, The origin of this new balloon unclear but officials telling us it does not pose a threat to national security

05:03 Still a lot of questions over this. Let's get right to Mary Ruess live at the White House tonight and Mary, another balloon approach spotted over the US. The fighter jet scrambled as you just reported. What is the White House saying about this? Well David for now they are continuing to closely track and monitor this. They've determined that as of now this does not pose a risk to flight safety And we're told NORAD and the FAA are closely coordinating To make sure it stays that way You remember that guy who uh... Wait wait wait What does she mean by make sure it stays that way? Is the thing gonna morph into a flying saucer or something? It's going to change. It's a transformer, exactly! This is just I guess this is China fear you know hey we gotta scramble some jets we need more money Can you imagine how much money costs to scramble a bunch of jets? I'm sure one of our producers could actually give us the figure

05:54 I'm sure they actually know. It's not like we could get it from a Pentagon audit, but yeah...I'm sure someone... Where? By the way! Yes. Yes do tell. Where is that Pentagon audit? Did you see that the Marine Corps passed a full financial audit? No. Yeah Semper Fi. Yeah, well I mean the Marine... At least somebody can do the job! Let me see what it says here Turn over the Pentagon to the Marines Oh they uh.. That should get us some donations You're right Full financial audit for the first time with a service announcing Friday its fiscal 2023 Financial audit received an unmodified audit opinion This is interesting after a rigorous two-year review How do you get

06:42 How do you get a two-year review for 2023 audit? It's only 2024. Well, they must... They're obviously referring to the combination of 2022 and 2023 I guess it's a milestone or time travel maybe that's it's a milestone is a beautiful thing Do you remember the guy Actually, I met the guy who wrote the book about it. Who had a lawn chair and he tied weather balloons to it And he wound up flying up to you know like 50 thousand feet and planes were spotting him and he had a BB gun To shoot the balloons to go back down again remember that guy? I remember something about it Yeah Like the one that had the kid in it there was nothing No no no That was oh man That was the best hoax Balloon boy! Balloon boy yeah This is not balloon boy

07:34 No, the guy... it was in the late 90s I think. Yeah he had a whole bunch of balloons tied to his lawn chair and then they floated up! We should try that. Somebody should try that again you get you know scramble some fighters. Good balloonist who could pull that off. It would be funny if the fighter jets were scrambled. If the fighter jets were scrambled And then they're flying by and there's a dude in the lawn chair. I mean, now that... Yeah what if one of them thought it was funny to be strafing him? Come on! Where is your American humor?! We're fun at this That would be humorous Just wave to the jets This thing was only 40 thousand feet You know you can get up there for a little bit with some oxygen Not too long but might be chilly It has been done before Before we get into good stuff Yes I think we should do a little review What happened There was an election

08:35 that Trump won. Yes! And Nikki Haley staying in the race even though she had her ass kicked in her own state? Yes But she's staying in because the Democrats are keeping her going I have a clip of Nikki if you want to hear a clip Love it Yeah Today, in South Carolina we're getting around 40% of the vote Yay for us That's one way of looking at it By the way, the 40% of vote is only 19,000 people. It's not like this was some big thing That's about what we got in New Hampshire too

09:17 I'm gonna count it. I know 40% is not 50%. But, I also know 40% is not some tiny group. It's 19 thousand people. Big deal. Was it nineteen? I think there was more No! No! I looked at the numbers and it was 19 thousand people And Trump had you know 22 or something. Nicky! This is...I am surprised they didn't break out in in a little bit of rap there, you know. But to the test, with Trump the bully who's afraid to fight against Biden and his appeals with twice his money. Well he is financing the whole thing. Of course he is financing it! That's why she should have played a song I mean that's rude Here we go yeah! We need you Nikki right now To save the nation Nikki Nikki Nikki

10:32 There are huge numbers of voters in our Republican primaries who were saying they want an alternative. I said earlier this week that no matter what happens in South Carolina, I would continue to run for president as long as Draper finances me because he believes Trump's going to jail I'm a woman of my word. Oh yeah, there it is! There's your soundbite and there's your soundbite Okay Yeah So Nikki Haley got 298,674 votes No, I guess i was looking at the wrong numbers then I think so Well this why they're two of us Thank you

11:17 Trump got five four hundred fifty one thousand nine hundred oh five. Oh wow, that was a spanking of epic proportion Did you see him bring up? Lindy hop Graham Trump they were both up there him and the other senator it was kind of weird because Everyone was booing in Yeah, yeah, but yeah, they're booing it but they keep reelecting them so how does that make sense do you want to hear it sure I He doesn't do too much television. He happens to be a little bit further left than some of the people on this stage, but I always say when i'm in trouble on the left I call up Lindsey Graham and he straightens it out so... Nice backhanded slam like that. Yeah boom! No no no no no no remember

12:15 Remember what? We remember. Remember the Maine. We remember Maidan, yes we remember. War monger Lindsey. I love him he's a good man come up here Lindsey! Come on here Lindsey. He looks kind of inebriated. He sounded okay. You ready? He sounded okay, but he was really flush. You know like kind of like he did? Yeah he probably... There's a lot of let me just put it obviously people that are in Washington DC know how to drink yeah and so they can drink a lot and still sound kinda sober. I'm sure he was drinking heavily. He would hope..I don't know what he was hoping for but oh here is

13:03 Okay, are you ready? Yeah I can't wait! America the nightmare you're facing is just about over. Help is on the way. This is the most qualified man to be President of the United States. He's hammered, he's hammered! He's the most qualified man to be president of the United States. And let it be said that South Carolina created the biggest political comeback in American history. Okay, so I've got some analysis from PBS. Oh my favorite correspondent the Lopez woman oh I have her later too yes the Lopez woman she you know She's kind of annoying yes think She's a little bit annoying Yes Yeah And she's more than a little and very biased very biased or she's if she's a bigoted woman Correspondent typical PBS. I don't know it's

14:11 One of those hires. Yeah, they have very few Latinos. A DEI hire? A DEI hire is that what you're insinuating here? Yeah! Okay... I'm not saying she's incompetent she does unflub But you can just see she's worse than anyone they've had before for being biased. And I want to play three clips. It should be representative of all of America, it's our public broadcasters. Yeah those days are died with Gwen Ifill. That's right and how we miss good old Gwen? She was good. She was good well she's i think the one that put the kibosh on a lot of this stuff they were trying to do so let's go with election

14:54 analysis Lopez won. He's having a lot of trouble with young voters and voters of color on that. And I spoke to Nancy Zedonkiewicz, who is a Democratic pollster with Zeta A Research and she recently conducted focus groups with Latino voters black voters and moderate Republicans and especially among Latino voters She said there was Hispanic woman in that group who? questioned the president's message on the economy specifically that they weren't happy when they heard the president or

15:31 compare U.S inflation rates to other countries' inflation rates, trying to present what they thought was too rosy of a picture in terms of the US economy and ultimately Nancy Zedunkowicz said that what Democrats have is a messenger problem This might be a sort of reverse coattails kind of election where we see that statewide Democrats and congressional Democrats are carrying the president across the line. I can't tell you a single state right now, where I've surveyed or a statewide Democrat was not more popular and exceeding the vote share of the president

16:07 So, Dunkowitz warned that this is a real problem for Democrats and it's not something they can wish away. Wait a minute so the wonderful analysis from PBS here is the Democrats have a messenger problem? Really? Gee! Who would've thought? Finally yeah coming around to this conclusion Because their guy is an old abused dude Who can't really communicate, who can't remember things. If they jack him up with an F- No! That's not working anymore They're letting him go Here is my thesis or hypothesis Yeah you name it whatever you want They have let him slide from the uppers as long as they can so they can really pump them up for the State of Union Address in March

16:59 Because they can't keep him pumped up because he's going to blow up. No, he is going to explode! I don't know if he is gonna make it? So he is gonna get the State of the Union and they are going to give it to him He is so wired for that speech everyone says this guy has got lots of energy You watch... I'm waiting for this state... That State of the Union is going to be a killer All right, let's go with Lopez too. So the economy remains a challenging issue but where is the president seeing any traction? What issues and with what voters as I mentioned on Nancy Zedonkowicz spoke to moderate Republicans as well and so in that focus group they found that when they presented the contrast between President Biden and former President Donald Trump that a lot of those moderate Republicans started to move more towards President Biden specifically like democracy January 6 and on abortion

17:52 Wait, so the Republican moderates are voting because of democracy? Yes. And January 6th that's what at the top of their mind they're thinking oh my god that January six bullcrap That, I'm thinking oh that means I better vote for Biden because i don't want that to happen again and oh and Trump's a threat to democracy even though everybody left and right including now Hawaii is trying to take him off the ballot. That's democratic! Okay so we'll go with that analysis You sound very animated and somewhat upset

18:29 I'm very upset. I'm upset with the bullcrap, do you really think that any Republican is voting based on January 6th? No! I don't but they're gonna try and push that. That was their big TV show, that was the big thing they had. They got Liz Cheney, they got everybody to... Yeah and every one of them got voted out shortly thereafter They're desperate. It's obvious they're desperate, this lady, this pollster she's a Democrat pollster. Hello? I mean that it's lies lies and statistics

19:11 And clip three. That abortion, she said is the second most important issue that they're hearing from a lot of voters across the board not just moderate Republicans The two fixes that Democrats could have for that She said is that President Biden needs to be very clear about his platform for a second term and also get more surrogates out there That could boost his message. Oh yeah, they need surrogates all right Wow, I thought you'd catch that. Well, because I've heard other analysis that says including from Jen Psaki. Oh goodness, you have one for her? Who came out on one of the shows and said oh Biden's got to get out there more! Yeah! He should be out in front no more surrogates screw that let's have Biden. Is she trying to sabotage him what is she doing I don't know what she's up to That's crazy You know we don't want it...you're right and we gotta keep him in the adrenochrome tight until this state of the union Meanwhile Turkish radio television

20:09 did an interesting report of the South Carolina primary and came up with this. But over the past two days in South Carolina, we've been hearing the same message from voter after voter they believe only one man can defeat the president occupant of The White House. My vote for Donald Trump? We've got to get Biden out of office. It's a shame what Is being done to him the man is old The South Carolina Republicans they even have compassion for Joe Biden There were very few people bucking the trend many of the votes Haley did get were from Democrats so determined to stop Trump that they temporarily switched parties now listen to this lady and tell me if

20:56 This is not a maniacal person. I voted outside of my party because i think it's important for somebody other than President Trump to have a chance so, I voted for Nikki Haley So you're a democrat? I am But you are taking part in the Republican primary? I am yep First time ever My parents would be horrified Tell me that person isn't deranged. No kidding! Wow. That was rather interesting, then we... them, you know. But so here's the unhinged part and people are coming apart at the seams and it's kind of weird Bob Costas I don't know much about sports ball but i remember Bob Costas. Bob Costas was the cool collected dude who did the sports ball announcement yeah they actually gave him a late night show for awhile he took over from Tom Snyder right that he could do what Tom Snyder's old it's called The Late Late Show whatever it was called hey couldn't probably

22:00 Well, he actually could. He was pretty good but he was not as good as Snyder. Wait didn't he run into some controversy? Didn't get kicked off of that because... Why do I even know this? But i have a feeling that he got de-platformed early on because he didn't have some, I'm gonna say sex scandal? Wasn't there something like that. Anyway he was on smirconish and the poor Bob Costas is coming apart! You come at this from a position of not wanting to see Trump get elected you should state that at the outset true

22:42 Yes, absolutely. He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history he's only become more disgraceful since 2016 and since 2020 he is a bubbling cauldron of loathsome traits and it's only those who are actually suffering from Trump derangement syndrome which is the way they and Fox News and all the rest of MAGA media try to brush aside all the legitimate criticisms of Trump, you have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion and a toxic cult. To believe that Donald Trump has ever been in any sense emotionally psychologically intellectually or ethically fit to be president of the United States So...you gotta be in some kind of cult?

23:30 Now, hold on a second. Can you play the beginning of that clip again? Just the first couple sentences? Sure You come at this from a position of not wanting to see Trump get elected. You should state that at the outset true Yes absolutely he is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history He's only become more disgraceful since 2016 Yeah okay So what specifically is he talking about Because he's putting people into a cult. This is part of a narrative... I didn't want to do it this early in the show, but i might as well There's an there's a narrative that they've been waiting just waiting waiting to spring and you know the it's the whole religious cults meme

24:17 And they've just been waiting to do this and they finally got an opportunity. And when I say they, that's the Democratic machine. Yeah but i'm going to stop you before...I want to hear this but I'd like to know specifics here if you're gonna start making these accusations that all the Democrats do oh Trump is a criminal Oh Trump is this, he's that. Give me one example! Well why are you asking me? I'm not Bob Costas You're the one with the presentation. Bob Costas did he ever say what these...what this disgraceful act

24:53 What these disgraces were specifically? What are they now I think hold on Again this, I didn't want to do this here but i'm going to do it now let me go back To this Bob Costas thing because at the end he says in a toxic cult That's what he says. This is the point. Have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion and a toxic cult... He likes the word toxic, so we have to assume that toxic is on the list of wordage that were going to be hearing. Yes it isn't. We got to roll out the...

25:30 I like toxic by the way, it's a good word. I thought we had that in toxic? What was the... what would you call it again? The Trump... what was the list? Trump derangement syndrome No no, we had a list We had a name for the list The rotation, the Trump Rotation. Yeah the Trump Rotation which is still online Let's review it's only 58 seconds let's see from 2016 let's see if toxic was on the list I have my list and you might want to see if there's anything left out this is the trump rotation There are two categories, there's a regular and then there's the criminal but here we go ready? Here we go! Liar in Congress

26:07 Unhinged, illegitimate president. White supremacist, racist, bully, immature Russian agent, narcissist Mean long ties Insane tweets too much small hands small penis big red button criminal Mean, racist, immature, thin-skinned. Runs the mob Has no money Unstable Fatter than 239 pounds Bankrupt 25th Amendment should be instituted He hates women Misogynist Holds grudges forever Plays golf a lot Obstruction of justice Money laundering and clown John!

26:49 No, no wonder we're making America white again. So no toxic on the list you're right it's new it's new for the lists but they are going with a different tact that the it's been the white Christian nationalist for awhile and now and now we have to make that into a cult It is not a religion by the way White nationalists not a religion Christian Nationalist Not a religion No its a cult And it's a political cult. And that's what Costas, I don't think Costas can bring himself to do the full thing but it really started with a beautiful switcheroo which included the University of Alabama which is a major woke university. I mean like major, major woke so there was... As bad as Arkansas? Maybe even worse maybe even worse

27:49 Watch the documentary, what is it? Bama with all the girls going there and social media. It's an interesting documentary anyway so in Alabama there was a court case that went up to the Alabama Supreme Court A couple, two couples. You're banging your mic. It was two couples... That's not banging the mic! Well whatever it is that sounds like it. Something else and I'm trying to stop it from happening and I'm not sure what to lubricate. I do have the IVS clips. No I have it all! Do you want me to present or do you want to interject? Unless you have a clip on the IVS. Of course I have it! Okay okay then I just have a PBS clip that I thought we should throw in there. I have too many clips I can't even play them all

28:30 But I want to explain because it's fun to see the switcheroo. And we don't need a clip necessarily about what actually happened other than two couples in Alabama, they had had children with IVF. IVF is where you actually create the child in a petri dish and then freeze until you implanted into womb. It stands for In Vitro Fertilization Thank You You get twins often, by the way. Which is always a fun little side effect and so they paid the company to keep their... They had successfully implanted and had kids both of these couples And then the company that's supposed to take care of Their embryo, their frozen embryos They screwed it up and they dropped them on the floor swept them up I don't know what happened something horrible went wrong and so they sued them for wrongful death

29:24 Which then it had and which who knows how much of this is all a setup, but they sue them for wrongful death and the Supreme Court justice in Alabama came out with the opinion says yep their children so it's wrongful death therefore you can be penalized for that. And then the University of Alabama turns around he goes oh Oh, well we can't do any IVF now because it's scary so scary cuz we might get sued if we drop a child on the ground which is the setup and the switcheroo happens right away in the mainstream. Women relying on IVF and their advocates had feared the fall of Roe would open

30:03 the door to states further restricting reproductive rights. Still, the Alabama decision sent shockwaves. This case or a case like it could go all the way up to the Supreme Court at some point And that's what really puts the future of fertility care at risk. Kate Weldon-LeBlanc heads up Resolve New England, an infertility support group. Her own daughter Sophie was born through IVF she calls it an intensely personal and emotional journey between an individual and her doctor not politicians in judges People do not understand the medicine reproductive health care So its already gone away from IVF immediately No one is talking about

30:41 the actual case. Now it's Roe v Wade, they hate children, they hate any of the Republicans are crazy Christians and they are making changes that are going to impact people that are desperately trying to welcome much wanted children into their lives okay so here's how it gets... Guys wait! I love the use of the term much wanted. This whole thing is crazy, i'm going to give you a good example with The View because that's where America's women go to get their news. But since when do Republicans want to stop rich people from having children? It doesn't make sense!

31:24 On the one hand they want you to not have an abortion, then they also don't want you to have more children. Make up your mind! Does that make sense? She's literally lying and turning everything around. Whatever that means... I actually think they do want you to have more children And they're just not saying the quiet part out loud loud. Oh, no, so Sonny Haasen what is she needs to bring some racism into it? Remember it's white Christian nationalists that we're going after we'll get to them right which is multicultural Americans are going to become the majority population by 2050 By 2050, the Hispanic Americans are expected to have the most population growth. An increase of about 6%, while the white population is expected to decrease by about 11%. At this time, the birth rate for white Americans in this country has been falling since The Great Recession and it's dropped almost 23% between 2007 and 2022." So what The View has now done is they've taken it from rich whities

32:21 to they you know, they only the rich whiteys want to have babies. They don't want to have oh Don't give black and brown people access to this crazy technology that is brand new apparently So but wouldn't what white women be getting the IVF so that increases why? They want IVF But they can't say Yes, an embryo. They're coming out sort of against it and not being able to explain why they want to have more American white children born because the birth rate has gone down Okay so that's the views take on it but what really kicked off was this woman from Politico Heidi Prisbilla

33:10 And she went on MSNBC with Michael Steele. Isn't that the guy who used to be the president of the Republican Party? He used to be the head of the Republican National Committee, turned Democrat. This is the kind of guy he is. Is it Gregor and then she just did exactly what her WAPO... because isn't Politico owned by WAPO slate is owned by Waco. Well same overlords as far as I'm concerned she did she kicked it all off and got it going and I think she went a bit too far but it was beautiful to see Heidi you've got the new speaker Mike Johnson who's not afraid to wear his Christianity on this sleeve, on this collar, his lapel, his head wherever he can wear

33:58 How do members react to that? How are they responding to this real strong infusion of Christian nationalism into the body... Hold on a second. This phony baloney, this guy who's hateful Once he was headed the Republican National Committee, once he was booted off he became a Democrat which always was. He was never any good at it This is a lie! I've watched enough of Mike Johnson and he rarely talks about being religious He doesn't wear it on his sleeve. Oh, well no but this is a setup that's been planned we've got um we've got a documentary I understand the thesis i'm just pushing back on your bull crap No, I love it! You hear from these boneheads By the way Troll Room absolutely spot-on meanwhile white girls are having sex with black men what are we doing? We all know what's really going on that's fine This is America but no It's really about

34:57 Making Trump and his support. It's all about Trump, the whole thing is about Trump. It's all about Trump and it's a desperate attempt Real strong infusion of Christian nationalism into the body politic of the house I've talked with a lot of experts on this And i've seen myself with my reporting Michael which is that The base of the Republican party has shifted, right? Remember when Trump ran in 2016. A lot of the mainline evangelicals wanted nothing to do with a divorced real estate mogul who cheated on his wife and with a porn star and all that, right? No I don't remember that right! Was that really ever thing did mainline Christians run away from Trump

35:45 Because he because right because he cheated on his wife with a porn star or did you make that up in your head lady? That's the part I love the most. It's like when Trump ran in 2016, A lot of the mainline evangelicals wanted nothing to do with divorced You know real estate mogul who cheated on his wife and with a porn star and all of that right, right? So what happens he was surrounded by this more extremist? You're gonna hear words like Christian nationalism like the new Apostolic Reformation these now. This is this is this got my interest the New Apostolic Reformation This is something that started in 1996 By a professor Dr.. Peter Wagner

36:36 And, you know it's not really mainstream anymore. It did start kind of the... charismatics movement which you know if and this is what they're failing on that they don't have any video of the charismatic in their churches because you know they're very moving around and speaking in tongues and very vocal when there completely no the Holy Spirit is working through him so this is the cult angle by the way would you just point it out as a weakness yes Because I don't think they really know what they're talking about probably on any level. And so if they knew what they were talking about, that's what they would go get. The B-roll of Pentecostal Thursday night or whatever weird night they do these jumping around things and just talking in tongues and just go for it! We have one guy like that in our church we love him you know he'll just like he's like ask Terrence like Jesus and he's great

37:37 But we only have one you know, but anyway so they have to imagine a church full of them That's what you need Christian nationalism like the new apostolic Reformation these are groups that you should get very Very schooled on because they have a lot of power in Trump circle and the one thing that unites They have a lot of power in Trump Circle all of them because there's many different groups orbiting Trump at the The thing that unites them as Christian nationalists, not Christians by the way because Christian nationalist is very different. Okay, so Christians is very different from Christian nationalists. This is this as part of the meme they're trying to not piss off Christians by saying Christian nationalist is very different unites them as Christian nationalism Not Christians by the way because Christian nationalists is very different Is that they believe that our rights as Americans as all human beings don't come from any earthly authority They don't come from Congress. They don't come with their Supreme Court. They come from God

38:37 Okay, newsflash Heidi. The rights that we have in the Bill of Rights as written are established were not given to us by Congress or by the Constitution. The Bill of Rights is a specific denial of things for the government and if you look at the Declaration of Independence yes these were our God-given rights And now, but this is the level of knowledge of civics amongst this reporting class. Either that or they're specifically trying to undermine the Constitution

39:14 Both the problem with that is that they are determining man men Are determining what God is telling them and in the past That so-called natural law, you know It's a pillar of Catholicism for instance. It's been used hold on a second We talked to our lapsed Catholic. Is that a pillar of Catholicism? I don't know. For good in social justice campaigns, Martin Luther King evoked it entirely. Yes he said all men are created equal that's what Martin Luther King said and I think Martin Luther King said that came from God but you know that was Martin Luther King who was better. Talking about civil rights but now you have an extremist element of

39:55 conservative Christians. I love extremist, not extremist! She loves that word and she says it the extremists instead of extremists which everybody in the world says extremist but she says extremist why is she doing that what is the point It's an attention getter. It's an attention getting a pronunciation. Well, it worked. Stremest element of conservative Christians who say that this applies specifically to issues including abortion gay marriage and it's going much further than that as you see for instance with the ruling in Alabama right this week that judge is connected to that dominionist faction talking about a lot of other issues including surrogacy IVF

40:38 you know sex education in schools there's a lot in addition. Okay so what she's trying to do here and I think she overshot the mark is she's trying to get nowhere, tie Dominionism and the new apostolic What is it? A new apostolic, is a revolution. I forgot what she said. It's not working! She can't jumble all these things together like that and hope to get any attention or get anybody to go along with her because she's nuts! She doesn't know what she's talking about

41:15 Well, she tries to well steel tries to bring her back on track because she needs to of course connect this To Mike Johnson the speaker of your house. You have to understand the whole idea is to tell to tell America The people who want to run this country are crazy you know It's interesting Heidi as these two men are trying to carve the GOP into their image you've got the head of the party Donald Trump who is not a paragon of Christian virtue. How do they reconcile that? Is it just about, oh he got us the Supreme Court

41:53 Is it just about he advocates for the things that we advocate? Does it matter whether or not he himself believes them, or has any type of moral connection, or even a theocratic one given what you were saying. It really depends on the individual but let's talk for instance about his spiritual advisor Paula White who was a White House employee she was his spiritual advisor she is connected to this Dominionist movement and a lot of those individuals believe that Trump actually was put here by God. He even tweeted this video, you know, that God gave us Trump that he is a serious like person who is imperfect vessel who is nevertheless here put on earth to do God's work to put... So now she's taking that commercial

42:42 And she's tying it all in. I love the effort. which is an agenda that's being very detailed agenda that's going to be offered up to President Trump or if he wins a second term right? Oops, she already knows who's gonna win. Oops I mean if he wins I mean if he wins President Trump to work through HH the Department of Human Health and Human Services as well as potentially the FDA That would really kind of bypass even the courts in Congress to do things like revoke

43:30 authorization of the abortion pill. And then, and this is the one that doesn't get enough attention- She's losing it now. Is the influencer campaign that's taking place. Oh here wait this is the in now we got to bring in Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA because these people are crazy they're paying influencers! Right now in the GOP to convince young women to ditch hormonal birth control that they are sicker and more stressed out being working women and that they should embrace being healthier and more natural. And what a crazy idea! Having large families, daycare is not good for your kids either... All of these things actually happen at Turning Point USA

44:13 conference for young women leaders. Okay, so she really overshot the mark she went way too far because she was just supposed to tee up some stuff and let all the serious media like NPR oh yeah no NPR So NPR brings on this guy, I think Matthew Taylor. He's a scholar with a book! And he's going to really explain to us what is going on with these crazy Christian nationalists, Dominionists. Dominion theology the concept was coined by a group of radical Calvinist theologians called... Okay can you stop for a second? Yeah! Just a little backgrounder The Dominionists

45:03 slur. Yes, it was actually developed and maxed out during the George W Bush administration for anyone who wants to know is that when they tried it there? Yeah, this is when they first came out and the Dominionists...that's when it really got into the forefront. And there was discussion after discussion about what the Dominionists want. They want the end of the world! And the end of the world is going to take place in Israel even though the Syrians think it's gonna take place someplace else. Everyone in the Middle East has their own little area where Armageddon is gonna take place. But the Dominionists believe it's in Jerusalem or something like that I may have a few details wrong but

45:44 but this was going to be the end of the world, and that's what everyone was pushing for because George W. Bush and the Dominionists want to end the world as we know it! They want the whole thing to blow up!" Dominion theology? Oh sorry... That was that was the reason for the uh so it became a big deal now So now they're reintroducing the term and the group And there are a lot of people who are very serious about being dominionist I think I've heard from a couple of them myself But it's absolutely Absolutely one of the most fringe of fringe Christian movements, very fringe. And so to bring it up as a mainstream anything is ludicrous. Dominion theology, the concept was coined by a group of radical Calvinist theologians called The Christian Reconstructionists

46:31 in the 1960s and 1970s. These ideas were very influential in the rise of the religious right, in the 1980s it was this aggressive style of Christian theology that said Christians need to fulfill what they would talk about as the dominion mandate take dominion over societies and rule in the name of Christ. The main vehicle for this idea in our circles is something called the Seven Mountain Mandate that became a charismatic rebranding of these Calvinist Dominion theology ideas that Wagner and his cohort mixed together into the Seven Mountain Mandate. And, in fact Justice Parker referred to

47:09 to the 7 Mountain mandate in an interview he did with a NAR prophet named Johnny Enloe and it was published the same day as the court's decision that embryos count as people. I love this stretch because i thought it was going to be in The Opinion, I got the PDF of Alabama judge's opinion like oh there is nothing in there about that so he did an interview with an NAR dude and it came out the same day, and she doesn't cite anything just as offhandedly. Oh yeah! The Seven Mountain Mandate also something I'd never heard of before So the Seven Mountain Mandate means that you have to go into the institutions of government And what else? The seven mountains are family religion education government arts & entertainment

46:31 in the 1960s and 1970s.

The seven mountains are family religion education government arts & entertainment

48:07 media and business or commerce. Oh shit, he forgot podcasting what's wrong with you? The idea is if you divide up society into these seven spheres as you can rule the world sometimes language you'll hear used as well the ideas that those mountains so those spheres of society are either ruled over by demonic forces or by the kingdom of God. Well, that's entertainment! That's Taylor Swift. Since where do we not agree with this? We gotta agree with that! And so the goal for Christians is to rise to the top of each of the seven mountains in every society and to displace the demonic powers through spiritual warfare... Meanwhile, the Jews are going hey media that's our mountain get off our mountain Christian crazies! Seven mountains in every society

48:55 and to displace the demonic powers through spiritual warfare, through prophecy. And take over conquer the mountains and then let Christian influence flow down from the top so if you think about conventional religious right mobilization it is tended to filter or channel conservative Christian indignation into democratic means This is a vanguard move. This is not a grassroots change society, this is take over positions of power in society and govern from the top down. Come on don't give me that I have a couple more to go. I'm skipping as much as I can because I can already hear you're annoyed

49:33 Well, yeah. For one thing I want to back up at least once in a while and say this is so fringe it's ridiculous the fact that they bring it in as something that's actually happening at any level if you go to Seven Mountain Mandate and Wikipedia they have this kind of background of us has never really became caught on until I guess the 2013 and then it was about to seven mountains not about the other stuff that dominion is right and then they have here prominent followers now let me get okay who do we have Mike Johnson yeah exactly

50:14 Raphael Cruz, pastor and father of Senator Ted Cruz. You know the guy who tried to kill Kennedy? Paula White spiritual advisor to Trump. This is Lauren Boebert really?! Alright so but now we have to take this and we've got it connected to... I just want to stop again. This is a setup this was I'm gonna look into the... this has recently been added. Oh yeah, oh I totally agree! The Seven Mountain Mandate Wikipedia page has been updated recently Look at the edits Yeah looking now Okay so then he goes into separation of church and state which I'm going to skip that one but what we need to do is we need to connect these crazy people these crazy dominionist seven mountain charismatic

51:10 nut jobs, also known as Christian nationalists to January 6th. But how much of this rhetoric is metaphorical? I mean are we talking about real demons when they talk about picking up weapons are they talking about real weapons They would say it's not metaphorical they believe the demons are real But they would say, they are only talking about spiritual warfare. Now the challenge is if you go and listen to their rhetoric it is incredibly violent. And they're pointing at actual people, pointing at the Democratic Party, pointing at disloyal Republicans as they view them and saying those people are not actually responsible for their actions because they are being orchestrated by demons and we need to fight the demons. This literal demonization of their enemies

52:01 is one of the major contributing factors to the chaos on January 6th. Because they are pointing at them and saying that building is infested with demons, we need to fight the demons! I did not hear those chants on January 6th...I'd have seen that footage! And it's only a matter time if you keep doing that before someone says yeah we need to fight against those people so the NAR leaders are careful they know where the line is between Truly irresponsible speech that could get you in legal trouble None of them have been prosecuted or even faced any legal consequences for their role in January 6th They know that what is protected by free speech and they walk right up to that line, but they're always careful not to cross it I'm not sure what he means with that bit at all But his job here with this book and there's a couple books out is to connect the

52:52 the Trump backing from Christian nationalists to January 6th. And all of this is, of course, a set up to a wonderful documentary called God and Country which is produced by none other than Rob Reiner because he is the final hope for the Democrats, the final hope to get rid of Trump by telling everybody the truth. We have a new project that I also want to make sure people know about, your documentary God and Country which looks at this issue of Christian nationalism we have a little bit of it let's take a look. Christian nationalism uses Christianity as a means to an end That end being some form of authoritarianism

We have a new project that I also want to make sure people know about, your documentary God and Country which looks at this issue of Christian nationalism we have a little bit of it let's take a look. Christian nationalism uses Christianity as a means to an end That end being some form of authoritarianism

53:33 Being a Christian is about the values of inclusion. Christian nationalism is certainly not based on the values of gospel God wants America to be saved They're told over and over and over again that you're in danger You need to fight if you don't want to lose your country We are in civil war Now What's being said here is it's true. Absolutely Christians are always talking about we don't want to lose our country and the demons and all that but they're overlaying January 6 footage as only Rob Reiner could do We'll show you in the documentary, and by the way there are very conservative Christian evangelicals pastors Very respected people in the Christian community that are frightened of this Christian nationalist movement because it's not

54:25 They not only frightened about hurting democracy, but Christianity itself. And we show in the film that this movement was the foundation for January 6th. They were the moving elements that made January 6 and the insurrection happen And now we have a Speaker of the House who is an avowed Christian nationalist. He even says that the teachings of the Bible and what he believes, whatever it is he believes God's will is overtakes the Constitution, and that all decisions have to be made based on his thinking. So we have this now inculcated in our government

55:05 And Donald Trump is more than happy to be their mouthpiece. And we see this connection and it's brought out in the film, and it's very scary because there's a possibility—and we talk about it in the film—that we could slip into an autocracy very easily. You hear this all the time on your show. At any minute we can show you, any minute. On many other shows that the fight right now is between whether or not we preserve our democracy or we slip into a theocratic autocracy. That's what this movement wants they believe that this is a white Christian nation and that's what it should be and that's what we bring out in the film And they're not only poisoning uh-uh-uh-uh the democracy They're also poisoning Christianity

55:51 Oh, sure. Now here's the real irony and the big disappointment here Rob Reiner used to be a really good director for fictional product he wasn't he's not a documentarian The Democrats lost their guy Michael Moore when he did his documentary on scam of climate change And they just, he was just eliminated from the picture. Where's Michael Moore this go-round when he usually does the kind of documentaries that now they have to pass it off to Rob Reiner? Yeah Who is not a documentarian and doesn't know what he is doing Well he produced it A guy named Dan Patland Is the director I'm not familiar with him

56:41 And I have a clip of them both in a minute, but I just wanted to give a little palate refresher here with Joy Reid. Johnson is so far out there that even other Republicans are pushing back on the God talk But this is why we need to be very concerned. Mike Johnson has the conviction, the motivation and now the opportunity to steal the next election for Donald Trump! He is a far right wing evangelical Christian who suggested his election as House Speaker was ordained literally by God even billing himself as a modern day Moses. I don't remember that.

57:18 I don't remember that either, but is that different than every black football player in the world thanking God and Jesus after the game when they win? How about the Grammys! Thank you for...God gave me the lyrics. You can only do that so far Taylor Swift's gonna get mad. Well here comes her kicker So if God tells him to steal a few elections to make Trump president what are ya gonna do?! And then what happens if God tells him to make Trump president for life? Oh, yeah. Okay. All right sure this is the end she's gonna burn in hell let's face it okay so I only have three more clips and then i'll stop like I could play 20 more because I find it fascinating you can do a whole show we do a special once you do a special I'm not going to do a special so yeah do you remember

58:11 Okay, maybe I'll do a special. What should i call it? Oh by the way We were looking for like a genocide Joe name for Hillary we got one Holocaust Hillary It writes itself that's not bad can't believe that we didn't come up with it so we did now Do you remember Laura Flanders? Of course, she still has a show. Did you know that? I didn't! I mean...I didn't know she had a TV podcast A show-a podcast show No, she has a show that goes over the air Well this was a podcast Okay well i think her podcast is the same show Well Laura Flanders had Rob Reiner and Oh my god those two together just like And damn- I'm surprised it didn't It really is surprising because there were some revelations in here so Reiner

58:56 Produced the movie, I say with a big name. The documentary Dan Patland is the director. Well in this top class of ambassadors... So what he's doing here? He has a chart and he says... Hold on a second. How come he's going around that what producer do you know and we have a few that work on our show go around to promote, it's usually the director or the main character. It's not the producer unless it is a producer-director that goes around promoting the movie unless they did it. Because they're desperate there's nothing left to do but now just go straight to religion which is one of the most un-American things I could think of to be honest To go after religion and then you know couched in all this just some fringe group and they're all behind Trump

59:46 I mean, and the Dan guy he's dumb because he says things that are stupid. So he has this chart that she puts up on the screen and it shows that one third of America is really Christian they're just Christian they believe in God and Jesus Christ And then there's another third in the middle and maybe we can sway them But he has to admit that two-thirds of America is just kind of believes in Jesus Christ and God. So, then he says but you know this movie... This movie that he made is to convince that one third in the middle to flip I guess away from Jesus? Well then this top class... Those are probably most of the people we're talking about when we say Christian Nationalists. This may be as much as 20% of the population

1:00:38 Okay, that's a huge huge number. 20% who have deeply held beliefs that the United States is... Hold on! Stop it again! I'm listening to this and i can't tell if it's Rob Reiner speaking in a lower register or is that Laura speaking? I can't tell. Well, its Patland It's the Dan guy Oh! Its' the other guy He sounds like a combination of the two percent who have deeply held beliefs that The United States Is and should be officially a Christian nation And are looking to write that into law That's the population we have to be worried about What makes it so difficult to address is that when you consider the next tier, people who you'd call accommodators of Christian nationalism or even resistors. Now you're talking about really almost two-thirds to three quarters of the country have at least some bit of Christian nationalist belief

1:01:33 And some of it is fine, of course. This is basically a Christian nation! There's a background in Christianity throughout the history of this republic. The sort-of benign ways that it starts – which is just recognizing that there are a lot of Christian people here – quickly becomes a slippery slope with this casual language like, well, but the United States is basically a Christian nation… Well what does that mean? What does that mean? And I think what we have to do is, we have to draw that bright line again between the separation of church and state which is a foundational American principle which I cannot believe in the year 2024 or it's becoming fuzzy. So what they're trying to say is that the separation of church and state, which they all point to the First Amendment where the first amendment says

1:02:19 the government shall make no religion official, religion cannot block a religion of course. Didn't matter because the churches closed anyway when they were told oh scary COVID but what they're trying to do is turn it around a little bit and say hey these Christians they can't be making laws based on what they believe And there is something called the Lemon Test, I believe which could be used to stop lawmakers. But in general if you're a Marxist or socialist you may... and we have lots of socialists-based laws and Marxists based laws but they're very afraid that the crazy Christian nationalists are going to take hold and they're going to make all the laws based upon what God told them!

1:03:02 Well, one of the things I learned that I didn't know before Robert from the film was just how recent it is that the word God appears on our coins in The Pledge of Allegiance. Oh well, I was in school actually 1954 when they added under god in The Pledge of Allegiance Yes And you know why they did that because this true a 1954 President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words under god Because of commies like you They were afraid of communists taking over our country and using our Pledge of Allegiance as a communist mantra, so they added God. It used to be one nation indivisible then it became One Nation Under God Indivisible and I remember when that happened because we gave that pledge every morning in school So you know it really started happening around then And uh... We've seen it grow over time but the question you ask which is how do you undo it?

1:04:01 And the way in which you undo it is not, you know. You're never going to get that hard core group of people that just believe in and you can't convince them. It's those others those other layers that Dan talked about if you can get to those people to understand make them understand destroying their faith in a way. It's undermining their faith, that's the way in which I think you can undo it and then... Well because these crazy Christian nationalists are really hurting Jesus! There is all kinds of

1:04:37 You know, pie in the sky kind of things like getting rid of the Electoral College and things like that which would actually make it more democratic. And majority rule because we are not really a majority to get rid of it. Pie in the sky but if we really want to get rid of it. Rule in the country there are a lot of safeguards for the minority to make sure that they're run roughshod over, you know... That's called the electoral college. Yeah he wants to get rid of it! It's pie in the sky that's like a dream is what he means by that is a dream to get rid of that we'll work on that. But when that minority gets too much power then they're running roughshod over the vast majority and so that's what you have to wrestle with and

1:05:22 It's in our civics classes and we have to understand how it works. All right, so final clip Rob Reiner I thought he was Jewish? He was born Jewish into a Jewish family but we... He is an atheist Oh no! We have a lot to learn about Rob Reiner's religious beliefs Become a Buddhist? Rob you've gone on a journey yourself You've talked about in the context of this film Even though I am Jewish, I was not raised that way. But when in a time of my life when I was going through the worst period of soul searching, I read everything. I read Buddhism and books about Christianity and Hinduism. I read everything! And what I came around thinking is if you look at the core teachings of Jesus

1:06:14 That makes the most sense and made the most sense to me. The idea of, you know, doing to others is and there's a reason why it's called the golden rule because if you can live by that everything else falls into place. You don't need the Ten Commandments, you don't need a lot if you just live by that rule." And then I look at this film and and I look at what's happening in this country and it seems like we've come so far from those teachings! Okay, so just to review he read some books about Christianity He didn't read the Bible, but he did read some books about them...and he says, you know, the teaching of Jesus is do unto others

1:06:53 Which I think he's referring to the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes which are a little bit more than that. But if you are a masochist like He is do unto others! I think He loves that yeah let me be mean and hateful and spiteful... He is extremely hateful this guy And He wants that to be done to Him Then that's his golden rule, that's his entire takeaway from Hinduism, Buddhism some books about Christianity and being born a Jew is please be as mean to me as I am to you. This guy this guy is sinful! That's what he is So, anyway you can look for... Well that's a long way. That's a Shaggy Dog story if you're gonna end with that! Well I mean it's like PBS everyone was rolling it out It was insane and what I think is going to happen these people are so stupid they're actually going to create revival in America. Let's overdo it. It's a cycle

1:07:52 Oh it is! It's overdue. I remember studying this when I was a... Wasn't it late 60s, early 70s? We had a war going on but everybody... No nothing like in the 1800s. The real revivalism... Tell me about the 1800s. There were some tremendous decades of revivalism that was just out of control and we have seen nothing like that in our lifetimes Do you think it's a cycle and we're overdue? Are you sure it's not an op? I think it's the cycle, and we're overdue. It's the Jesus Op is coming! Well, I don't know if the CIA gets its act together maybe. But so I'm not seeing it. So I think they are so desperate this is the last thing they can do let's connect it to Trump lets connected to January 6th lets bring in Rob Reiner! I mean that says desperation right there and as you're right we're overdue it's a backfire

1:08:49 We're going to have a revival and I look forward to it. I look at this slightly different than you do Okay, I think this is just laying the groundwork for excuses how Trump lost the election to Biden When they when they go through the same process of rigging the election like did it last time? It was done with mail-in ballots which is gonna be much more difficult to pull off this time And when it happens, you say well, you know, Trump says he was stolen. But in fact—and then they go through the same thing you just did and these are the reasons he lost." Wait a minute! How does that work with our thesis that the Democrats want Trump to win? I think in fact…well, two things can be true at the same time. I think the smart Democrats do want Trump to win

1:09:39 And because they know that things are going to be so screwed up, they may be out of office for a long time if Biden stays in for another four years. That's the smart money. But Biden's people that got him in the first time which seems like a locomotive out of control which is basically Obama administration... They don't think that way. I mean, I don't see how it just can't happen now. It's like...I mean unless they cheat better than the Republicans. The Republicans will be ready though! No, the Republicans should be able to cheat and hold their own. They shouldn't be doing it. But I've never thought that the Republicans were as good at it as the Democrats. Just for example Washington State

1:10:29 all mail-in ballots, all Democrats and really bad Democrats lousy ones like Inslee. California absentee ballot's the way to go most people do that and then there's also other notorious rigging mechanisms in the Democrats have taken over California. It's democracy man! I would love to switch gears to this fake moon landing. And I see you have a 3x3, so I'd be excited to do that if your game? Yeah let's do the moon landing. I got a 3x3 here and I want to start it... Well play the jingle and then we'll start it. And now its time for 3x3! Hello everybody! Experiment by JCD! Yes we've got a 3x3! Comparing stories from ABC CBS and NBC

1:11:20 The never-ending 3x3! That's right, it took us over 50 years to get back to the moon everybody and boy was it a doozy. Are you waiting for the video? Stand by John's got a three by three to see how The Big Three News Networks news shows covered it We'll start with the top network for people who watch news on TV ABC. It's a mission with major implications, the first American spacecraft to land on the moon in more than 50 years. Separation confirmed. The lunar lander Odysseus nicknamed Odie built by Houston-based Intuitive Machines blasting off week ago on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket traveling a quarter of a million miles to the moon

1:12:00 OD carrying instruments that will gather information about the lunar surface ahead of NASA's Artemis mission to the moon in 2026 with humans on board. Americans first landed on the moon, on Apollo 11 in 1969. We will be here from now on for what will truly a historic time. That one small step for man, One giant leap for mankind The last time back in 1972 on Apollo 17. Now Odie's mission sets into motion a new beginning in exploring the moon and the universe that South Pole, the dark side of the moon has water and ice which is critical if we want to use the Moon as a home base to one day explore Mars and beyond

1:12:48 The moon has one-sixth the gravity of Earth and no atmosphere, so it's a much easier place to launch deeper into the solar system. It really is the launching pad into human exploration out into deep space." And David, we have just received confirmation. Odie has made it to the lunar surface at that South Pole, that critical South Pole where there is water and ice so Odie has officially landed on the moon. Wait a minute I thought it was going to find out if there was water and ice? Yeah! That's what I'm thinking How do they know there's water and ice if it is winter to see if there's water and ice? Because they had a camera for the landing. Oh, I'm sorry they didn't! It's so crazy when you see that old footage almost as old as I am

1:13:34 of, you know, riding the dune buggy playing golf bouncing around. I like the golf But yet we can't seem to have an actual video of the landing of this thing which looks like something that Adam and John could have put together in our garage with some tinfoil and some broom handles Well, it was put together in Texas. So my understanding is that it actually did come down and kind of landed then fell over. Fell over! So now its on its side and doesn't have any mechanisms to upright itself. It's not like you know one of those

1:14:10 Like a, it's not like a cheap toy. You used to be able to buy at Toys R Us that whatever the kid did it would flip itself back to normal. They can't even come up with that? That technology is old! It's with toys to have it. The thing flips over and its back standing up. Basically sand in the bottom of the big clown you could hit and it would rid right itself. Nice how about training wheels? Let's go with Tom Costello on NBC Leave it to a 14-foot robot named Odysseus to stick the first US moon landing since Apollo Stick the landing? Are you kidding me?!

1:14:49 Stick the landing. I mean that's a term with a plane, I can't believe these people are doing it. But we can confirm without a doubt is our equipment is on the surface of the moon Houston based intuitive machines now the first private company to successfully... That's not sticking the landing at all! We can confirm its on the moon if it crash landed and blew until there million pieces you could say the same thing Apollo What we can confirm without a doubt is our equipment. Right there, without a doubt? That to me is the lie. Without a doubt he's got doubt. Without a doubt because our equipment is on the surface of the moon Houston based intuitive machines now the first private company to successfully land on the moon Houston Odysseus has found his new home

1:15:37 But now troubleshooting a communications issue. And liftoff! Go SpaceX, go IM-1 and go Odysseus Lunar Lander. Yay! Odysseus launched on a SpaceX rocket just seven days ago sending back spectacular photos of Earth as it rocketed towards the lunar South Pole On board six... Hold on Spectacular pictures of Earth All... Did you see the one picture I've seen from this thing? It wasn't even earthed it was like a A round metal ball with somehow some snow on it? I mean, did you see this picture? No. It's very...it's very weird. ...back spectacular photos of Earth as it rocketed towards the lunar South Pole On board six NASA experiments The ice water on the pole makes at NASA's target zone when astronauts return in just a few years Now they're also saying ice water They're saying as if its

1:16:37 I'm confused. The top two networks so far have said that there is water on the moon, even though this fallen...this tipped over thing is supposed to find out if there's water on the moon? This is good! In a NASA simulator we saw the hostile conditions they'll have to navigate — the sun hanging very low on the horizon Those shadows are so long. To cut costs, NASA has hired 14 private companies to run advanced experiments on the moon though many could fail It's really difficult to land on the moon I mean there is no air or to slow you down so that you can't use parachutes The Odysseus Lander will only have 12-13 days before its solar power runs out

1:17:21 But tonight, just getting there is mission accomplished. Yeah, it can't be that. This is... It's really really hard this you know it's tough to land on the moon Well how do we do 50 years ago? No that wasn't real That was you know those because of the Russians It's amazing It's, I still think the image of comparing this little piece of crap that fell over compared to driving around in a dune buggy. Playing golf! Playing golf! Remember they were playing hidden golf? And playing golf is like kind of a contrast But you never know it's possible That was when Wernher von Braun was alive So let's go to the CIA's best outlet and

1:18:22 See what they have to say tonight the Odyssey of Odysseus has ended on the moon The first American-made spacecraft kicking up lunar dust in more than a half century as our equipment is on the surface of the moon Jubilant mission control of intuitive machines in Houston. Also this This mission control was dorky They're like a bunch of nerds in a round room. I mean, it didn't have a cool look and have a mission controller guy you know stand there like chewing on a cigar. We're sticking the landing boys! No none of that they were like oh yeah we did it yay. The first commercial moon landing ever

1:19:08 The final descent from 18 miles above the lunar surface, a continuous engine burn for 10 minutes. By touchdown Odysseus had slowed to 2 miles per hour This is the assembly room Intuitive co-founder Steve Altema showed us the historic moon lander up close last year in Houston by the way that's incorrect that two miles per hour but I have a clip to prove that after three by three his company envisions a 100 billion dollar lunar market. We're delivering scientific payloads, engineering demonstration payloads but not the humans themselves And you believe the moon is the next economic frontier? The moon is certainly that next step for space exploration Odysseus landed near the Lunar South Pole carrying less than 300 pounds of cargo including six instruments for NASA and intuitive customer

1:19:57 The space agency hopes to have astronauts moonwalking there by the end of the decade. Some craters there never see light, so cold they may contain ice and water is critical to long-term space exploration. NASA plans to basically hire these companies to send payloads for the moon like you'd call an Uber or Lyft but these companies have to make it work first that's what we're seeing today Not since the end of the Apollo era has an American lander parked itself on the surface of the moon. This mission will last roughly a week until lunar night freezes those solar batteries. And so they want then that thing is just dead in a week?

1:20:38 Oh man, so here is... This is so stupid. Maybe dead now for all we know. Yeah well listen- And by the way that report from CBS did not it did the right thing about the water? But they lied about the speed! We think we came down with like I said about six miles an hour this way and about two miles an hour this way caught a foot in the surface and the lander has tipped. We think! He doesn't even know, they don't have telemetry on this thing? The simplest... The absolute simplest gadget in an airplane can tell you if you're flying on your side or upside down. But we think, our foot caught on maybe it was like a rock or something and then we tipped over. Surface...and the lander has tipped like this And we believe this is the orientation of the lander on the moon Doesn't even know the actual orientation which I think it's two-spirit

1:21:41 And nearly 24 hours later, scientists say the lander is still stable and they do have communication with it. The sun is charging all of the batteries on board. Wait a minute! It's the dark side of the moon No, they mentioned that it's at the point where the sun is just glimpsing over the horizon. Oh! And like a good little movie you bought it. It has enough juice at that level to charge up. I believe it right away. I believe all of this. All of the batteries on board now keep in mind they have not seen any images from the lander at this point and are relying simply on data and code

1:22:17 understand what is happening with the lander on the moon. Now we did talk about pictures from the surface, these scientists say we could possibly see some images later this weekend but at this time scientists are not commenting on whether or not any of the payloads onboard could be in jeopardy if this lander is in fact on its side." They don't even know if it's on his side I have one more report. This will make it a 3x3 plus 1, this is from Anderson360. Kristen tell us what's really going on with this moon landing? The first time a private company has ever done this the first time an American-made spacecraft has done this since 1972 and Anderson it's the first time that any spacecraft has touched down on the south pole of the moon a critical spot they think that's where ice is water

1:23:04 It's where NASA wants to build a lunar base for Artemis astronauts, the first astronauts to return to the moon since the Apollo program. And it's where China wants to build a base as well. China! But Anderson some real nail-biting moments that as administrator described it is an Apollo 13 moment with no humans on board of course because of some of this technical issues they had to troubleshoot Yeah what happened I mean up until last second than the difficulties? Yeah, Anderson it's so wild. I mean they were really fixing on the fly they had an issue you know how radar works? Radar it sends out a radio signal which then bounces off an object which lets you tell how far away you are from it well this is lidar

1:23:43 Laser instead of radio waves light waves bouncing off of it And that's what the spacecraft this robotic uncrewed spacecraft uses to find a safe landing spot because the moon has you know craters and boulders all over it there was a problem with intuitive machines is LIDAR navigation system, and so it just so happened that NASA had an experimental LiDAR payload I loved a little laugh in there So it just so happened. The problem with intuitive machines is LIDAR navigation system and so it just so happened that NASA had an experimental lidar payload on the lander as well they were somehow able to patch it through to the lunar lander odysseus and that experimental

1:24:30 experimental NASA navigation system, LIDAR is what they were able to use to get this on the surface of the moon. So pretty incredible that they were able pull it off but now we want to see the pictures Anderson right? Yeah we do right time for the boys get your work Can someone explain or somebody ask they wouldn't even bother to ask why they're using LIDAR instead of radar? Oh because it's it's LIDAR. L-I-E-D-A-R, Lidar. Lidar. Lidar. It is its show title, lidar. I'm writing it down. Writing it down, writing it down. Lidar, I like that a lot. Oh it's also

1:25:14 It's all so sick. It's a botch, let's just call it what it is. How about how about if the thing landed and hit a rock fell over and they can't get up? I've fallen and I can't get up well too bad! Let's just say none of its true. I'm not believing in it... And what is this outfit? What are these intuitive machines? Where's the CEO? Did you look him up, look him up. They're in the wiki page. Wiki page but how about a... How about a page on them intuitive machines It's an American Express company really Who are the investors let me see who they are I think it is a different company No no no Is this in Houston We open access to the moon for the progress of humanity This was an American Express company They're on Nasdaq

1:26:05 They're a public company. L-U-N-R is the ticker symbol. Lunar? Yes, founded in 2013 they've had three NASA lunar missions I love this years of executive aerospace experience 250 years of experience if you count up all the old dudes who must be working there yeah course so it was this a SPAC that's this smells of a SPAC I have no idea. Well, I think we should short it. With government money coming in? I don't think so! Yes... No it's not an American company. It is an American company headquartered in Houston founded by Stephen Altemus, Cam Gaffarian Tim Crane blah blah blah blah blah They got a lot of money they must have a lot of money that they took it public

1:27:05 That was just so they could cash out their money comes from the government. Yeah, yeah well how come we're never in these these scams? Because we're not scammers! Oh hello you're right you're right you're right hmm WOGBYO4E partnership and open innovation strategist... We got to talk to that guy Hey, Wogbe. How do we get in on this? Wogbe! Is that his name? Wog-Be? Yeah. W O G... They call him wogs the wogs. It's all these dudes with crew cuts. Mm hmm. Yeah. Okay well fine I mean I wish them well uh too bad it tipped over We think we don't actually know if it tipped over Nobody even thought that it might tip over and there'd be some mechanism to stand it back up That's what gets me

1:28:01 If it tipped over, which I get the sense that it did. Yeah They couldn't stand it back up because they never thought that it would ever tip over Hello! Listen to this so they have lunar access services one of them is rideshare Let's see. Yeah, rideshare! Getting to space should be easy and custom-tailored to fit your needs Our lunar transfer orbit delivery services can accommodate up to 1,000 kilograms of payload and deliver customers into a myriad of high energy orbits We launch payloads for deployment after launch vehicle separation And from the steadfast platform of our landers in lunar orbit Your results may vary due to road and weather conditions

1:28:46 So they're gonna be a ride-share companies the uber of space. I get it okay Yeah, there's a moneymaker yeah, yeah somehow you got to think that This is bullcrap All right let's go to Ukraine Oh Goodie I spotted some new term that we have to keep an eye on okay and this play Ukraine anniversary the term is Well, you'll hear it in here. I use the initials FSI Ukraine anniversary day Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine enters its third year and on this anniversary of the start of the war It's worth stepping back and noting that neither Russia nor Ukraine has made progress on its goals despite hundreds of thousands of casualties On both sides Russia has failed to occupy all of Ukraine And Ukraine has failed to retake all of the land occupied by Russian forces

1:29:44 Wait a minute, Russia never said they were going to occupy the whole country. Tell me about it! So let's play... I want to play these two FSI clips. These are the two... This is Nick Schifrin, the first one? You just heard that? Yep yep Play FSI. Nick Schifrin. Oh, hold on... Is that something different? Yeah this is from NPR. Sorry. Okay thank you got it Before the full-scale invasion the 28 year old who asked us to withhold his last name was a snowboard instructor A tour guide. Oh! Full scale invasion oh so this is the new this is the new new

1:30:22 It's like this is the new new hey listen Putin and here it is on FSI and PBS just to get it again Yes, okay day Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine enters its third year good catch Good catch. So now this isn't just two I've heard about five of these And they've decided to drop it. Now, do you remember when this started three years ago? I certainly do! There was no full-scale invasion or a bunch of under fueled tanks that kind of came into the country and stalled and they were just... You know, a full scale invasion by the Russian army

1:31:01 Wouldn't be what we were saying in Ukraine and the Russians themselves just called it a military action, a police action. They didn't want to do special military operation is all about the Donbass region Yeah So that is not a full-scale invasion yet PBS and NPR among others are now using this term Full-scale invasion I feel ripped off by these these great media organizations So you heard part one of the NPR full-scale invasion. Let's play part two, Ukrainian anniversary. But as Ukraine runs low on ammunition and weapons with resupplies from the United States and other allies more in doubt than ever Russia is going on the offensive in Ukraine's east Joining us to discuss this is NPR's Kiev correspondent Joanna Kakisys Hey Joanna! Hey Scott! Hi! So tell us how Ukrainians are observing this anniversary today

1:31:54 So, Scott it's a somber day. Ukrainians are very proud that their country is still defending itself against the much larger enemy with a much larger arsenal but there is just this sense of exhaustion and loss and you could really sense that at a rally in central Kiev today where many were demonstrating to highlight the cases of thousands of Ukrainian prisoners-of-war Here's Anton Tarasov. He is a 49-year old soldier who was in the cave on short break from the front lines to see his elderly mom. I'm not even sure who this is more difficult, civilians or soldiers? Like my mom for example she's 8 years old but we are stronger than Russians We love freedom too much! We love it more than they love war so we will win. We love freedom more than they love war

1:32:45 Yeah. Oh, there's a slogan I love that one can so this did this was no good this report So we have to go back to PBS and let's get two Victoria Newland So he really get the BS up at the highest level possible she she was Everywhere she was She was with what's-her-face With Christiane Amanpour She was blanketing and it's great to have her back on the airwaves because once again, it reminds us what evil and sin does to your overall look.

1:33:24 She is, she looks terrible. The Biden administration today unveiled a new set of sanctions against Russia to punish it further for the full scale invasion of Ukraine that began two years ago tomorrow. The sanctions are also meant to target Russia for the death of anti-corruption activist and politician Alexei Navalny. He died in an Arctic prison one week ago from a cause still unknown Earlier today, I spoke with the U.S. Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland about the state of the war two years on. Victoria Nuland welcome back to The NewsHour as the world prepares to mark the second anniversary of Putin's Ukraine invasion Ukraine's counteroffensive has stalled

1:34:06 Ukraine lost a brutal months-long battle for Avdivka. Additional funding, as you well know is stuck in the GOP led house and Russia is showing no signs of quitting what is the outlook for Ukraine right now? Well Jeff you are not wrong that these are tough days for Ukraine and as you said they've had to come out of Avdiivka when I was out there a couple weeks ago there were soldiers on the front line with only 20 bullets a day to defend themselves And this is why the administration is pushing so hard for this additional $60 billion to support Ukraine. Yeah, and so two things... This 20 shells a day is a meme she's repeated everywhere What bullcrap is that? I'm sitting in a foxhole they're shooting at me

1:34:55 I got a bunch of, bucket full of bullets. I shoot the 20 off it." Ivan you've got to stop this is your limit! Are you kidding me? No because because of Trump because Trump told the GOP not to pass the money and therefore these poor Ukrainians are sitting in their trenches cuz it's just like World War one It's a war of attrition and they only have twenty shells today now when she says shells it's a little unclear if they have that That's 20 shells like these big, the big ones are shooting out of the cannons? Or if that's you know... I thought she said 20 bullets. Let me listen to it then there and that is important. Battle for Avdivka in the GOP... And i didn't like what she said, You're not wrong. You are not wrong that these are tough days for Ukraine

1:35:43 And as you said, they've had to come out of Avdeyevka. When I was out there a couple of weeks ago there were soldiers on the front line with only 20 bullets. Okay she says bullets in her report I have she said shells so it's bullets maybe it's shells but she said bullet so bullets is bullies. She said bullets that means your sitting in a foxhole with a bucket full of bullets and you can only shoot twenty of them if they come at ya too bad don't use any more those bullets because you only had twenty. You got a bayonet thats what the bayonet is for Okay, onward with her crap. With this money we actually think that they can make some serious gains in 2024 particularly by enhancing some of the asymmetric techniques that they have been using. Asymmetric techniques? Yeah rocks! What is an asymmetric technique in warfare

1:36:36 Well, they said what they showed is a fighter jets little bitty drones with like it was like a handgun. Yeah Duct tape to the front yeah That's that's what the Canadians are given on the UK a million drones a million tiny drowsy drones And they got low hand gun at there you can see a little gun sitting on there and it flies around and shoots just randomly every time it shoots it backs up about five feet because of them I Yeah. This is asymmetric? That's asymmetric, but we need to support them just as the Europeans have just given them an additional $54 billion dollars Well so far House Speaker Mike Johnson has refused to bring up a Senate-passed package at least for a quick vote

1:37:18 Is there a way for the administration to get that much-needed aid to Ukraine absent action from Congress? Jeff, I would just start by reminding that this bill passed overwhelmingly in the Senate. Seventy senators supported it And they supported it because they understand that as much as this is about Ukraine's ability to survive as a democratic state, it is also about the larger principles of a free and open international order that benefits the United States. Putin wins here, then dictators and tyrants all over the world will take note and will get hungry with their own territorial aspirations. So we need to pass this money and the American people broadly understand that so we are hopeful that they will tell their members when they're home during this recess how much they support this money and we are

1:38:19 We support the money. Okay, so a couple things one we support the money two they didn't go home on their recess they all went to Ukraine everybody was in Ukraine Queen Ursula is in Ukraine Chuck Schumer's in Ukraine everyone is hanging out you the crane bowing to Zelensky and here's the question If it's so known that they only have 20 bullets a day, why hasn't Putin gone full roughshod and just ran right over everybody? If they're out of ammo... It's the end of the exercise here. Don't you think that it would have ended by now or is Putin's mission? He's an idiot. We're being told different than we're being told The other thing is throughout this interview and I there's these how many clips are there for I missus three We're at three now. We're on number three Throughout this interview in all the other new list stuff, he've heard not one reporter has

1:39:16 even brought up or mentioned negotiations to end this idiotic war that's costing billions and billions and tens of billions of dollars. Well, would you want to be out of a job? Here we go. We don't have one. Seemingly drawing on limitless supplies and support from its authoritarian allies Well, let me start with your premise Jeff that previous sanctions haven't worked Russia has become a pariah state around the world thrown out of the international banking system And now so desperate for weapons that it has to go to countries like Iran and North Korea To get them but those Russians are wily and they have over the last days

1:38:19 We support the money. Okay, so a couple things one we support the money two they didn't go home on their recess they all went to Ukraine everybody was in Ukraine Queen Ursula is in Ukraine Chuck Schumer's in Ukraine everyone is hanging out you the crane bowing to Zelensky and here's the question If it's so known that they only have 20 bullets a day, why hasn't Putin gone full roughshod and just ran right over everybody? If they're out of ammo... It's the end of the exercise here. Don't you think that it would have ended by now or is Putin's mission? He's an idiot. We're being told different than we're being told The other thing is throughout this interview and I there's these how many clips are there for I missus three We're at three now. We're on number three Throughout this interview in all the other new list stuff, he've heard not one reporter has

1:39:16 even brought up or mentioned negotiations to end this idiotic war that's costing billions and billions and tens of billions of dollars. Well, would you want to be out of a job? Here we go. We don't have one. Seemingly drawing on limitless supplies and support from its authoritarian allies Well, let me start with your premise Jeff that previous sanctions haven't worked Russia has become a pariah state around the world thrown out of the international banking system And now so desperate for weapons that it has to go to countries like Iran and North Korea To get them but those Russians are wily and they have over the last days

1:40:21 They're wily. I love that one! Those Russians are wily. They're Wiley E Coyote to get them, but those Russians are wily and they have over the last six months found ways to evade sanctions at but we've also got smarter about how to hurt them then that's why this package is so massive it looks at punishing sanctions evaders it looks at closing down further Russia's access to credit and finance It also punishes for the death of the leading opposition figure, Navalny at the hands of Putin and his present guards. And it sanctions those involved in the abduction of Ukrainian children into Russia. So it is a massive package

1:41:08 And partly it's because we've got to staunch this evasion. Can I just interject your clip sequence here with one? No, you can't right now because you have to back it up and listen to what she said at the very end. I heard about the children! There is a phrase she uses that... Oh okay, I'm sorry. Do you want me to play the last few seconds of that clip? Yeah, those involved in the abduction of Ukrainian children into Russia. So it is a massive package and partly it's because we've got to staunch this evasion. Staunch this evasion?

1:41:44 Staunch this invasion. I think she said evasion, she didn't say invasion. Yeah, she did say evasion but the word i'm looking for play clip four because it's only this term It is a massive package and partly it's because we've got to staunch this evasion and because We have far more targets now as we understand better how to staunch the Russian industrial complex Staunch Look it up. Go right now to WickedBook.org and look up Staunch, and tell me what the hell she's talking about. Firm and dependable especially in loyalty Stop the flow of a liquid to staunch to stop the flow

1:42:31 That's what I'm getting right off the hand, right off hand. Stop staunch to check or stop the flowing of stop or check in its course to make so a stop to stop the flow to staunch just staunch to stop the flow doesn't sound like defeat and... I just found it peculiar No is ridiculous can I Can I just... Yeah, play your clip. Just about the sanctions? The great sanctions that we've placed on Russia? Oil tankers like these are still bringing Russian oil into the EU and it earned the Kremlin 1.1 billion euros last year

1:43:09 According to a new report by the NGO Global Witness, illegal loophole is allowing Russia to sell its oil in the EU despite sanctions ban against imports. Countries which haven't imposed sanctions on Russian oil are able to import millions of barrels of Russian crude oil they refine them in those countries and at that point they become refined product like fuel or diesel it's no longer considered Russian and so this fuel is freely imported into European Union They followed oil tanker movements and delved into publicly available Russian tax revenue information in their research. The oil is mainly coming through India and Turkey, but also Bulgaria which is actually inside the EU when the EU brought in the sanctions on refined petroleum products in February 2023

1:43:57 They did so with limited exceptions. One of those exceptions being to allow Bulgaria to continue to import refined oil in order to prevent a major economic hit to the EU's poorest nation. So, bullcrap! Bullcrap? They don't really mean it they just want money You know what is interesting is that figure that they used this oil coming out of Russia surreptitiously Brought them 1.4 billion we're trying to ship 60 billion to Ukraine just so they can have more than 10 bullets 20 it's 2020 I'm sorry what am i thinking and I hope your newland clip has the money shot does it five yes is It the money shock otherwise, I got the money shot no

1:44:51 No, mine doesn't have the money. I don't know if it does or not. I don't know what you're looking for but once you play this then you play your money shot. Okay. And this is quite worrying is that Russia has been willing to intensify its economic and security relationship with China in fact becoming increasingly dependent on China And that is how it is fueling its war machine. It's also been willing to put the vast majority of its own economic stimulus into the war effort, so it is starving Russia and Russians of investment in education and their own future all in service of Putin's imperial ambitions.

1:43:57 They did so with limited exceptions. One of those exceptions being to allow Bulgaria to continue to import refined oil in order to prevent a major economic hit to the EU's poorest nation. So, bullcrap! Bullcrap? They don't really mean it they just want money You know what is interesting is that figure that they used this oil coming out of Russia surreptitiously Brought them 1.4 billion we're trying to ship 60 billion to Ukraine just so they can have more than 10 bullets 20 it's 2020 I'm sorry what am i thinking and I hope your newland clip has the money shot does it five yes is It the money shock otherwise, I got the money shot no

1:44:51 No, mine doesn't have the money. I don't know if it does or not. I don't know what you're looking for but once you play this then you play your money shot. Okay. And this is quite worrying is that Russia has been willing to intensify its economic and security relationship with China in fact becoming increasingly dependent on China And that is how it is fueling its war machine. It's also been willing to put the vast majority of its own economic stimulus into the war effort, so it is starving Russia and Russians of investment in education and their own future all in service of Putin's imperial ambitions.

1:45:34 So what we're having to do is adjust as well. As we wrap up our conversation, you said you're confident that the aid package will ultimately pass Congress? There is this question though of what good would additional... Wait a minute! What did he just say?! He just said it'll pass ultimately-what!? Do is adjust as well. As we wrap up our conversation, you said you're confident that the aid package will ultimately pass Congress There is this question though of what good would additional aid do, especially among those who view this as a war of attrition and point to the slow progress of Ukraine's counter offensive. If the US continues to provide Ukraine with same sorts of weapons why wouldn't that lead to further stalemate? First of all, this aid is going allow Ukraine to do four things it's gonna allow them to continue to fight

1:46:26 It's going to allow them to build a highly deterrent military of the future so that they will increasingly be able to stand on their own feet in security terms. It is going to help them recover and get more of their own people home and rebuild their tax base so that we have there's less economic support that they need from the rest of the world and it is also going to help them reform and become a more European democratic country. With this money on the battlefield first and foremost it will ensure Ukraine can hold the line but as I said they're getting increasingly proficient at asymmetric weapons,

1:47:08 As I said in Kiev a couple of weeks ago when i was there that if we can provide this support Putin's gonna get some very nasty surprises on the battlefield in 2024 Bullshit! Okay so yes big bull crap because when she was talking to globalist Christiane Amanpour She had a whole different story about this money no one mentioned it That's all we needed. She said they needed bullets, no we're gonna give them money so they can bring people back home, so they can start their tax base and... No! She said a couple of quiet things out loud in this interview What is your response to him and others here telling us you know America talks are good game but right now with stalled then it needs to remember it is the father mother love democracy and freedom around the world? Oh yes

1:48:01 Well, thank you Christian. That's the point that President Biden is making as well and that 70 senators made just last week in passing overwhelmingly the administration supplemental request including 60 billion for Ukraine so now the question is in the House of Representatives And support for Ukraine across the United States is still strong. So we hope that representatives will reflect that in the way they vote, and it's strong not just because people understand how brave and resilient Ukraine has been but this is not just about Ukraine if we don't stop Putin in Ukraine he will keep going and autocrats and tyrants all around the world will take comfort and think that they too can chunk off

1:48:47 a piece of their neighbor. So I think she read the secret or something, like if i just keep saying that people really are all for it then it'll happen and here is the money shot! Do you have any actual belief or reason to believe that eventually this bill will be paid? And if not how are you going to make sure Ukraine gets vital weapons... By the way I love that Amanpour says that this bill will get paid What did they send us an invoice Are we down to that now or just a Venmo QR code? What do they do instead of this bill will be passed, she says this bill should be paid. This bill will be paid and if not how are you going to make sure Ukraine gets vital weapons and ammunition

1:49:32 Christiane, I have strong confidence that when the House comes back after they've been out in their districts hearing from the American people after they have heard from Ukraine they have heard from Europe which by the way just passed 54 billion in additional aid itself over 10 years that we will do what we have always done which is defend democracy and freedom around the world not just for victims of uh... tyrants like putin but in our own interest to be observing a free and open international order that's what we need to do we've done it before and by the way we have to remember that the bulk of this money is going right back into the u s economy to make those weapons including good-paying jobs in some forty states across the united states and there it is

1:50:24 So, she's either lying about helping the Ukrainians rebuild with their tax base etc. or she is lying about it going straight into the military industrial complex which I believe is what its doing and I think at this point that's the only thing keeping our economy afloat That and AI chips I mean, what else is... AI chips. And things are about to get interesting because the biggest soy boy politician is it looks like it's definitely happening Mark Rutte former Dutch prime minister who I have met who is a hunk of soy he ran HR at Unilever

1:51:10 And then all of a sudden he was prime minister. He's weak, he's wimpy, he's a total yes man but he talks big game." For over a decade he has been a mainstay in European politics and now Mark Ruta is in pole position to take another leadership role crucial for the continent The outgoing Dutch Prime Minister has received a number of endorsements to lead the North Atlantic Treaty Organization or NATO. On Thursday, the White House backed Rutte for the job as did the UK Foreign Office and a spokesperson for German Chancellor Olaf Scholz Other messages of support came during the Munich security conference last weekend

1:51:52 And of course with Mark Ritt we were partial and nostalgic about the past and talking a little bit about the future. And as you will know, he's in the running to become NATO Secretary General. I personally wish him best of luck. I'm very excited by him becoming NATO Secretary General because he has THE perfect Dutch accent for me to make fun of it's coming up... In that endeavor The next NATO Secretary-General will succeed Jens Stoltenberg in October. They'll have the challenge of sustaining the alliance's support for Ukraine's costly defense against Russia, and depending on the outcome of the US presidential election they may have to work closely with Donald Trump

1:52:38 an outspoken NATO critic. In Munich, Rutte said Europe should focus more on Ukraine than on the presidential frontrunner. And we should because you also mentioned the West, the US stop moaning and whining and nagging about Trump! We have to work with whoever is on the dance floor I love this guy We have to work with whoever is on the dance floor. Stop moaning and whining and griping about him By the way, my name is Mark Rutte The last time a Dutchman was here was Jaap de Hoop Scheffer And he was really great too So no worries I take care of it and I'm your HR guy here Dance with me. Dance with me Trimpy

1:53:23 This guy is, he'll be fun. He will almost be good as that... No it's great because I love that voice I gotta play that again. I just love the end there, that is so good what he said. Trump said Europe should focus more on Ukraine than on the presidential frontrunner. And we shoot because you also mentioned the West, the US Stop moaning and whining and nagging about Trump! We have to work with whoever is on the dance floor Hey whoever's on the dance floor? I'd dance with him Trimpy Come one man, let's dance Let's do a little conga line. Hey Trump lets do it I can't wait. I vote yes! Bring him in!" Oh man, he is such a douche and the outgoing... The guy got kicked out? Yeah exactly All these European countries are all just waiting to get the big job in Brussels That's all they really want. Ah, I just want that job in Brussels

1:54:22 As long as I can get that, then i'll be good. Do you know Queen Ursula has never won an actual election for any public office in Germany ever? Well she was the Minister of Defense and got kicked out that's why she was then appointed! She didn't even run...she's running now. She is so annoying that no one will vote for her yeah but she's fine you can pick her and put her in some...now she's queen of the EU A history maker and a trailblazer. Ursula von der Leyen became the first woman president of the European Commission in 2019.

1:55:13 is confidence you placed in Europe. Her selection came as a surprise to many, not a former prime minister like many of her predecessors but a struggling defence minister in the German government of Angela Merkel fast forward to 2022 and the Forbes list calls von der Leyen the most powerful woman in the world And again in 2023. So what got her there? Her commission proposed the world's most ambitious climate laws, spearheaded the EU successful COVID vaccine procurement

1:55:49 Yeah, with text messages we're not allowed to see. Right. Heavily supported Ukraine and talked tough against China those successes haven't won over all of the members of the European Parliament though who will have a chance to block her second term so She's running now and I would not bet against her being re-elected. I would not bet against that because they love that woman! Yeah, but she is actually being elected by the democratic body. Well hello? No it's by the EU Starfleet Command. The douchebags that don't... Yes, it's the Starfleet Command. All appointed! Yes, Starfleet Command We're all practical purposes May I shift for a second here to something else? Just uh...to dance around and pat myself on the back trying not to break my arm A rude awakening for tens of thousands AT&T customers I woke up this morning turned on my phone and no internet Checked my phone it was like what is going on? I don't even see an SOS Now I can't even use my GPS My music Call my wife tell her where am gonna be

1:56:51 From Chicago to Dallas, Boston to Los Angeles more than 74 thousand users reported widespread problems. So on a personal level it was definitely confusing and uncomfortable but it wasn't the end of the world Late today AT&T apologized to customers and said service had been fully restored Nearly three quarters of adults live in households without a landline so losing cell service in a disaster can cripple communications That was the case in the Maui wildfires. But today's outage inundated emergency call centers with people dialing them up to test their phones, Massachusetts State Police posting that many 911 centers were flooded with calls and in San Francisco... Please don't

1:57:32 call 911 to verify if your phone works, if you don't have an emergency. The FBI is in contact with AT&T and the FCC is actively investigating. The National Security Council says there's no reason to think that this was a cybersecurity incident. Does this incident worry you about the future? I always worry about our dependency on technology. I think it's also a good wake up call up call and just a reminder that we can't depend 100% all the time on the technology that we depend on. A total last resort, experts say you can always go in person to your local fire or police department. So now we know that it was indeed a software update and the biggest complaint was not about loss of internet or loss of income... No no what everyone is really mad about is I want some credit for this! New at 10 this evening AT&T says they're trying to make things right

1:58:35 after this week's nationwide service outage. And now in a post to their website tonight, the provider apologized for letting customers down and promised a $5 credit to impacted accounts and there are thousands of them We are told it will appear on your bill in one to two cycles AT&T blaming the hours-long outage on Thursday only technical error that occurred while expanding their network now this FCC and the FBI right now investigating yeah, so but they copped to it. It was a Expanding their network whatever that means So I have a very

1:59:16 concerning comment about that clip. Yes, exactly why would somebody explain to me exactly why do you need phone service for the GPS on your phone to work and that was elucidated in that particular clip. So I couldn't do anything, I couldn't tell my wife where it was and the GPS wasn't working And i've noticed this when you have one of these phones and you lose your service for whatever reason Why does the gps go out? It makes no sense Because they're tracking you is the reason Yes because most phones will give you accurate location based upon cell phone triangulation tower triangulation Yeah of course they're tracking you

1:59:59 Hello. Surprise, I thought how would you even know that? You don't take your phone out of your drawer it's still in your drawer! I am on month 14 yes of no phone Congratulations and here is an observation What because I talked to a couple people and there were people very freaked out There was their friends of ours who are on their way to Austin and turned around It's like I don't want to go into Austin without cell service What? Yeah. Oh yeah, and this is not good No! And these are successful smart individuals

2:00:38 The other part is when people saw, because you know you didn't have a network and then it's what I think happens with these phones is then it says SOS only which means that either happens when you have no service or you haven't paid your service. I think...I'm not sure maybe you can connect to another cell tower to send a 911 call or to make them 9-1-1 call? Not so sure but the user experience of SOS only or SOS freaked people out because they couldn't call. They had no idea why SOS was there other than, oh my God we're in an SOS situation! They literally did not know what that meant it's a bad UI I mean it's a bad UI choice in hindsight but yes there were people who just felt crippled and someone come one of our um someone church group you see you know if it wasn't for you

2:01:33 and your show, I would have been completely...I would have melted into oblivion out of fear because the cell service didn't work and it said SOS. And remember that they just everyone just saw that Obama movie, the Obama produced movie about you know the whole system melting down and the Tesla's driving by themselves That part kind of worked sadly This could have been, this may not have been a failure at all. It could've been a test. Yeah I'm not going... You are NOT wrong with that John!

2:02:13 I'm not wrong. You're not wrong. Meanwhile, there is an actual cyber issue across Chicagoland. This cyber attack impacts certain prescription refills in certain locations. The company ATT&CK says that they are now taking any shortcuts to fix this problem the outage is expected to last through the remainder of the day still there is concern if this outage isn't fixed by the weekend a cyber attack against one of the country's largest prescription processors enters a third day chain Change Healthcare provides prescription processing through Optum, which supplies technology services to thousands of pharmacies. The company was attacked on Wednesday making certain prescriptions difficult to refill electronically According to the Wall Street Journal, Optum's parent company United Health suspects a foreign government was behind the attack Online, the company says they've disconnected Change Healthcare systems You sure you weren't just expanding your network?

2:01:33 and your show, I would have been completely...I would have melted into oblivion out of fear because the cell service didn't work and it said SOS.

2:03:06 Well, he has a foreign state actor everybody. How come that's not national news then? That's local, that's Chicago. It should have been covered and I want to...I'm very curious about your Kidfluencerz clips but before we do that i just wanted to follow up on something we're talking about on the last show about these bogus charities and NGOs that are getting big money That's our exit strategy. It is and it's quite easy to do, and remember just because a charity has Catholic in their name doesn't mean that... Doesn't mean a thing! No it could be one hour photo doesn't mean you're gonna get pictures in one hour what are some other examples?

2:03:47 Well, the classic is one hour cleaners. One hour cleaners! That's the best one. It's just a name it's not advertising so now Ken Paxton our Attorney General here in Texas is going after one of them backed by dozens of local elected leaders this week the El Paso migrant shelter Annunciation House flatly denying claims from the attorney general that they participated in activities that he deemed illegal, including human smuggling. The Catholic nonprofit instead claims Mr Paxson is just trying to shut them down because he personally disagrees that the services they provide two migrants services many in the border community say are badly needed

2:04:31 December when we were having about 3,000 asylum seekers coming through. We couldn't have made it without the Annunciation House. We couldn't have made it without the help of the NGOs. We will not be intimidated in our work to serve Jesus Christ and our sisters and brothers fleeing danger and seeking to keep their families together Is there no shame to houses of God, houses of hospitality. The attorney general also accusing Annunciation House of withholding records, but lawyers for the nonprofit refuted that as well saying his office only gave them small staff 24 hours. They're small staff I should say 24 hours to produce a massive amount of documents so i love stories like this um this you know so they had some

2:05:27 Very Catholic, bishop-y looking guy who showed up. I mean he almost sounded like an actor...I really don't know anything about him, but Annunciation House they are a non-profit. I went to the normal sources to look at their form 1990 wouldn't you know they haven't filed one since 2003? The only time they ever filed one that is fraud right there You cannot be a nonprofit in the United States and not file your Form 990 certainly not for 11 years

2:06:07 So, I think this is just maybe the tip of the iceberg. Maybe they're under some other name and it is filed? No! No no... I can't believe they'd go that long without filing any paperwork This is a bonanza John It's a bonanza There's so much fraud and waste and abuse By the way there's a new term El Paso El Paso is the new term What does that mean? It's an acronym, LPAS. Dame Beth heard this and sent it to me. Legally Processed Asylum Seeker, LPAS. Look for it. Be on the lookout for the LPAS. Legally Processed Asylum Seeker. Do I have a series of clips? Yes

2:06:58 This is a special that was done. It was actually quite good, but some of the big questions weren't asked which I will ask during the playing of these clips But The New York Times did a long look at so-called kid fluencers And these are children who have accounts that were created by their mothers and they're just little, they're kids like 8 9 10 11 12 year olds. And there's thousands and thousands of these accounts and well It's actually a disturbing series of clips and you'll be more disturbed as you listen to each one. Let's start with clip 1 A new investigation looks at the disturbing world of so-called kidfluencers and the moms who run their accounts One in three preteens say being an influencer is a career goal, but the reality poses serious risks to underage girls

2:07:53 Stephanie Sy looks at those concerns. Instagram doesn't allow children younger than 13 to have their own accounts, so what we're seeing is parents of kid fluencers set up and manage these accounts. Posting content of girls can be lucrative. Instagram makes it possible to have paid monthly subscribers and kids apparel brands will pay thousands of dollars for a single post of a kid modeling say they're dance leotards But what might seem like innocent photos to a mom may read differently to a man or pedophile. New York Times reporter Michael Keller analyzed data from 5,000 of these mom-run accounts as part of the New York Times investigation and joins me now. Michael thank you for being here I mean the headline of your report really sums up the risk A marketplace of girl influencers managed by moms and stalked by men

2:08:48 Whoa, I already know where this is going. This is a setup to legislation there's no doubt about it Well, there might be but I think they're gonna have trouble. Of course this is also the gouge meta. Zuckerberg yeah of course Yeah he's not putting up enough money to the Republicans this time. The Republicans for sure the Democrats probably less so But there's a lot of interesting potential here when you start listening to the numbers The fact that they found 5,000 of these things that they looked into which seems excessive Means that's the tip of the iceberg. Yeah

2:09:28 There's probably 20,000 of these screwball kidfluencers which is idiotic if anything ever has been. And you have to wonder what's going on here but let's go with part two. What did you find about how prolific these accounts are and why so many moms are into this? My colleague Jennifer Valentino-DeVries and I wanted to look into this world of child influencers as you said they often are too young to have a count of their own and so they're run by their parents. They got into them for a variety of reasons. There was a range from dancers and gymnasts who wanted to get free or discounted leotards in exchange for photos modeling the apparel, um... A lot of parents said that social media was the way they could assure a good digital resume for their child's future and maybe even help pay for college or gain opportunities working with sought-after choreographers

2:10:29 On the more extreme end, your aspiring models some had their own subscriptions both on Instagram where they would charge up to $20 a month for more photos or chat sessions with the child or on other platforms where the monthly cost went as high as $250. It's only fans for children Lord Jesus come quickly It's only fans for children and for $250 a month you can chat with one of these kids. Oh, this is sick! This is so sick

2:11:08 And here's one of the things that you listen to this report and you just wonder where their reportage actually is because these New York Times guys are like some sort of a weenie. They go on and on, nobody seems to bring up the possibility even though it has to be apparent, there's a pun in there, it has to be apparent that there are some moms single moms let's say not to put you know, point them out specifically who are whoring out their kids. This was never discussed before you continue my sister Willow she did her dissertation on social networking social media and she did a lot of study She got a degree online in psychology and masters

2:12:05 She did this or she I don't know if she came across the study to the study herself But she told me that the worst thing that that moms are doing early moms is they're taking pictures while they're with their child like nursing Or have their child in their arms, and she says it's its been proven. That That this is very destructive for the bonding process between mother and child because the mother is not focused on the child. The mother is focused on herself, and this is when it starts It's really about the moms I think or parents. I don't want to single out moms But I think it's about the parents who are...I mean This is not good

2:12:50 Well, they only talk about moms here so you can leave them dads out. Okay? They probably don't even know about it. Unless you have documentation otherwise. Let's go with clip three So your report also found that a lot of the followers of these accounts are men Are they driving these accounts popularity and their profits? So we did an analysis looking at the follower size of these accounts and the percentage of men in that audience, and did find a correlation that as the audiences got larger there were more men in them.

2:13:25 Now, some parents and pretty much all the parents we spoke to said that men following them and posting inappropriately was a really big problem. Some of them said that the first thing they did when they woke up in the morning was block followers and the last thing they did before they went to bed was block followers. They often post inappropriate or even propositioned girls in the comments below the photos. They do block them, as I said. But a lot of them ran into issues where if they blocked too many Instagram would start limiting their ability to either follow new accounts or to block even more one parent said like I can't believe this. I've reached my limit for the day of blocking creepy men

2:14:13 Oh my god, how about reporting? Have you considered reporting creepy men is it just blocking can't you report Now this seems to me This reminds me at this point of the problem. You get with spam calls and these guys with the blue pillow I'm PG&E we get your 5% discount if you just give us everything, you know about yourself Why doesn't the government, I mean instead of finding more things to indict Trump about... Elizabeth Warren should be all over this. Yeah where's Elizabeth Warren? And tracking these creepy men as they put it, they have IP addresses this is all trackable not all I'm sure some maybe go through a VPN some of them maybe fool around in some funny way but

2:15:00 But this is like, you could stop this if the government instead of going after Trump about everything would spend a little time. They have no intention of stopping this our lawmakers have no intention they believe they need social media they believe they need these companies to post their own idiotic crap about their little viral moment that they try to do during the so-called debates It's all the internet was a mistake. No, I've said that forever so let's go to clip four Michael I just want to show our viewers an example of what you're talking about The New York Times and your investigation doesn't show the actual post But you describe what the post showed a nine-year old in a golden bikini Lounging on a towel And then you showed the comments section full of sexually suggestive remarks but Michael it doesn't stop at

2:14:13 Oh my god, how about reporting? Have you considered reporting creepy men is it just blocking can't you report Now this seems to me This reminds me at this point of the problem. You get with spam calls and these guys with the blue pillow I'm PG&E we get your 5% discount if you just give us everything, you know about yourself Why doesn't the government, I mean instead of finding more things to indict Trump about... Elizabeth Warren should be all over this. Yeah where's Elizabeth Warren? And tracking these creepy men as they put it, they have IP addresses this is all trackable not all I'm sure some maybe go through a VPN some of them maybe fool around in some funny way but

2:15:00 But this is like, you could stop this if the government instead of going after Trump about everything would spend a little time. They have no intention of stopping this our lawmakers have no intention they believe they need social media they believe they need these companies to post their own idiotic crap about their little viral moment that they try to do during the so-called debates It's all the internet was a mistake. No, I've said that forever so let's go to clip four Michael I just want to show our viewers an example of what you're talking about The New York Times and your investigation doesn't show the actual post But you describe what the post showed a nine-year old in a golden bikini Lounging on a towel And then you showed the comments section full of sexually suggestive remarks but Michael it doesn't stop at

2:15:56 the comments in every case, you describe a world in which the girls are sucked into this sort of internet underworld of sexual predation. Right? And that was what was truly disturbing and what we found Beyond the suggestive or predatory comments, some parents actually received threats from some of the online. They would reach out and accuse them exploiting their child and threatening to contact their school or their family and friends, and seemingly expose them. Because it is worth noting that in photos of children in dance conventions are normal within that context but within the context of the internet people bring to them in some cases their own skewed points-of-view

2:16:53 And so these men were trying to, seemingly with threats of blackmail cause a lot of actual harm to the families. They're making this all about creepy men how about the creepy moms doing this? Stop it! Like I said, that's the question that was never asked. How many of these moms and how much this is the moms whoring out their kids? We really need to speak up and speak out about these black holes of evil... ...and wickedness This is horrible So it occurs to me, Michael that this is not just an investigation into risks that girls are taking online but a story about parents who are making the decision to put their girls at potential risk of overlaying. At the very least what is the biggest takeaway for moms who are thinking of letting their daughters become influencers?

2:17:49 So as we said, Instagram does allow parents to run these accounts for them even when they're below 13. But what we found was that it is very hard to do so in a safe way and that it may take hours every day of blocking creepier possibly predatory men from interacting with the account and the real life threats You know, lead to maybe we heard stories of strange packages showing up at people's doors and could go from the online world into real life. And if affect your family was a really strong takeaway for me is very disturbing. This is a disturbing report. Do you have an analysis of this?

2:18:39 Yeah, I thought it was just scratching the surface. They found 5,000 there's probably 20,000 or who knows how many they don't mention anything about what about the 13 year old doesn't need mom and she's decided to become an influencer? And how did this influencer thing take off in the first place? There's a lot of unanswered questions here creepy or not. And the whole thing, this is bad! It's the entire business model of Instagram it is the business model of Instagram influencers yeah and there's money and people are dumb when they're not thinking and the fact that they're just blocking and not reporting... The whole thing is wrong

2:19:20 It's very, very wrong. And this will all be added to COSA the Kids Online Safety Act what is what this will result in I with this I guarantee it will be you cannot be on any of these so-called social media hellholes without verified ID, government ID. That's where it's all going to lead to. Anonymity will be gone mainly for the creepy dudes but you will not be able to get an account unless it is verified the government is gonna know and end all of the cool anonymous so called free speech we have this is coming down

2:20:00 I think this report is a part of it. That is bullcrap! There was no way that the smart money can't get around any of these restrictions by creating phony baloney identities elsewhere in other countries using VPN's and free email accounts... I'm not saying you misunderstand what I am saying I'm not saying it's going to fix it, but that will be required for you to have an Instagram account. As an American, you will be required to go through this process of verification or Twitter or Facebook or any of them. That is what they're doing! That's what they are setting up. It doesn't mean that will be effective but that would be a requirement

2:20:42 Anything over a million users will have that requirement. I'm reading the law, I'm reading the bill and the amendments they're putting in there it's on its way Well they're fooling themselves! I didn't say it was going to fix it as long as creepy moms will want to whore out their children thats never going to stop Yes, and with that you can conclude the segment. It's a horrible segment I'm in desperate need of a good news segment after i thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you the man who put the sea in creepy mom's latest gentlemen say hello my friend on the other end the world mr..

2:23:40 controlled opportunists who are just trying to get everyone all riled and spun up. No, we're just trying to break down the media and show you what's going on in this overarching seal of reveal... season of reveal! There we go So you can do that by sending value back to us. Time, talent or treasure time and talent is hard for a lot of people but some people are good at it for instance our no agenda artists they like to listen live usually in the day jobs doing something else and then they just get on stick and start doodling around trying create artwork that we will then choose one four right after were done and post it And we want to thank Darren O'Neill who really understood

2:24:23 exactly what we're talking about and he did a meta AI piece of album art With a robot, all AI no doubt. A robot even with the hands wrong he had it right yeah The left hand has got the thumb on the wrong side It was great That was the best part I wonder if that was intentional or if the AI screwed up No the AI just does that And but the whole thing was perfect this was you know painting and no agenda sign And it was good. I mean, we looked at and went, you know... Well except for the thumb! But to me that made it even better to show just how creepy and wrong all of this AI is It was a meta piece. It was actually being sarcastic about him being critical

2:25:13 He wasn't being sarcastic. AI doesn't have that sort of sense. That AI was very ironic! No, Darren O'Neill has that sense he knew how to use it yeah a lot of people don't Now, there were other pieces. Yeah, Deren's got quite good at this... I have to say At prompt engineering? Yeah, prompt engineer He's not an artist he's a prompt engineer! Well yeah well he was actually kind of pretty good as it as an artist but he decided to give it up Throw it hell with it. And now he's a prompt prompter, which is really I'm surprised He doesn't have the AI doing his rock and roll show this pre-show It may be AI for all we know but could be pretty soon We also like Tyler Brown you like Tyler Browns Moon landing with the slate which I nixed like no it was too simple

2:26:08 Which one was this? It's the movie slate with Roll 33. Oh yeah, I did like that piece. Yeah...I liked the Super Duper which also from Darren which you just hated it. Which had nothing going on whatsoever it just said super duper That's your opinion There was no dimensionality there wasn't any other little gimmick Yeah I got it You vetoed it! Too small too small It's huge We both kind of like Comicture Bloggers' faked moon landing Kind of yeah, it was cute. It's a nice patch Yeah, I use it for the pre-show announcement today and then let me see with some other stuff All my fixes live in Texas didn't really quite didn't really quite hit home when the chemistry blogger also did the dr Phil one next to it And he's missing a finger

2:27:00 It just, you know... AI. I mean this is gone we're on to what iteration five or six of this art and they still can't get the hands right? It didn't even look like Dr. Phil! Didn't it look anything like him?! No that was just a fake. Why's the microphone way up there like that yeah because AI doesn't understand audio it doesn't understand anything I'm getting sick at AI. Buckle Up Clip custodian, nice little copy editor red pencil but no I didn't quite have it. I think that was it. Other things? Anything else? No, I think the AI prompt engineers are getting better though if they understand... If they have in their hearts and souls how to create what a good piece of art should look like and they know how to create it doesn't matter what tool you use

2:27:58 But you still have to have that funny bone mentality or irony, or something. So there wasn't anything else? Is there anything else you wanted to comment on? No. Well thank you very much Darren O'Neill! I mean his taste in music is questionable As you always say. But this was a dynamite piece, we really appreciate it thank you very much and thank you to all the artists for participating in this grand experiment we try out every single show twice a week Noah ArtGenerator.com Thank You Sir Paul Couture for setting that up and maintaining that force We love the new

2:28:40 the new style, the new look. If you're listening live you can go there and check it out in real time just refresh see what's going on or if use one of those modern podcast apps you'll see many more these art pieces as Dreb Scott uses most them for the chapters which are only available on modern podcast apps now let us thank the treasure portion which means we have executive and associate executive producers who help us out and get not only kudos for helping us at this level but also receive an executive producer or associate executive producer credit. And I'm going to be a nice guy today, I'm gonna let you do the first one then i'll take that huge one that comes right after it

2:29:21 Yeah, this is another one after that. Okay well this one is $1,000 and this is kind of an anomalous donation because I went back and forth with him... Looks like 1100 to me not 1000. 1100 yeah. I went back and forth with Zarin Densel because I got a note from his brother And his brother says, you can't use my name. My brother just donated a bunch of money and he's giving me the donation and I don't like your show you suck! And I don't want my name mentioned He didn't say that never heard the show Exactly And so I sent that note to Zarn, and I said what is this? And he sent me a note back saying, I don't know. He's never listened to the show. I have no idea why he was getting all bent out of shape but I never got the original note! That was crediting anybody. So I've gotten no real note from Zarn and if he has something he wants to tell us later we'll be amenable to running it as a make good but

2:30:21 There's something missing here and it's not the back-and-forth that I did with him, his brother. Oh wait didn't Zarn donate on the previous show? Isn't that where it came from? I thought that's where the problem stemmed from. Well, whatever we got $1100 from him here and we want to give them a double up karma and will look for something in the future Yes And the funny thing about The whole bit is they heard about the no agenda show in Europe on a train from some random woman Yes, some woman in Switzerland. There you go on a train was promoting the no agenda show and they were there I guess Oh couch check it out and Zarin checked it out his brother I guess is just a contrary now Why would I take the advice of some woman on the train? How did it got into nowhere now? I'm not listening all right here's double up karma for you Thank You Zarin you've got

2:31:18 Yes! Karma. Then we move to Vincent Visconti from Lantana, Texas and send us a very long note. Well you're lucky because... A lot of it doesn't need to be read seems to me. Let me see how we do hello gents excuse me in all of Gitmo Nation I'm very behind on shows but iIm trying to catch up since coming out of the COVID craze in 2021 I have never in my life been so freaking busy As I was reading the newsletter last night, I came to the heart-wrenching realization that it has been a way too long since making a producer level contribution to the show. Thankfully having set up a monthly contribution, I only feel slightly douchebaggish nonetheless still a douche bag please dedu- You've been deduced

2:32:04 And then he asks for essentially a switcheroo. He says, please give credit for this executive producership to my smoking hot wife Sinead in light of our recent anniversary and her upcoming birthday it's a two-for-one and she always appreciates a bargain And our anniversary is on February 2nd, which I recently discovered falls on the 33rd day of the year. Furthermore it is 333 days from the end of the year on a leap year credit to my desktop calendar this was not intentional but certainly destiny and excuse me...I need a lozenge also please give our beautiful human resource I'm gonna try pronouncing it backwards. Forget it!

2:32:51 A happy... I'm sorry, kid. Sorry, kid, I can't pronounce your name good luck. Good luck in life! Why didn't you just give us a pronunciation guide? Why be so mean bro?!

So now we have the If I can move this thing over this is gonna take a second to get cleaned up This is come on come on come on yeah, I can read every LK Jake Jake in God's country comes in with a It will click up. I can't there are three three three dot 33 okay, and I can actually barely read this note But I can turns out if I look on the on this thing oh my goodness Just do it already You know it's not as easy when the thing blows out the spreadsheet This is longer than the other note

2:34:28 I'm an in private investing industry allocating dollars for ultra high net worth families and institutions to purchase equity positions in privately held companies. In my travels, I deal with a spectrum of thoughts and ideologies. But one thing I'm struggling to get behind is the thesis of handing former President Trump the ticking time bomb as you both are more likely aware that Biden administration's doing almost everything to prop up Uncle Bernie for another weekend or two." It's not talking about Bernie Sanders now. The record oil production which people don't want to discuss

2:35:11 Uncapped debt ceiling, which people don't want to discuss. Phony jobs and inflation data which we discuss does not sound like a team ready to wave the white flag. My prediction not to be heeded as financial advice is as follows I thought this would be good to read and of course you puts it a disclaimer in there because you can't really take this advice now as financial advice You need to go to an expert your personal expert Government continues to spend like drunken sailors throughout the year. It will lead to persistent inflation from 3%-5%, forcing no Fed cuts in 2024." I'm down with that! The S&P 500... What? I'm down, I agree. I don't think there's going to be any cuts they might raise it They're never gonna raise it Not an election year Never happened

2:35:59 SP500 all-time high will continue throughout 2024. I think there will be a cut. NVIDIA is a house of cards! Yeah, I'm all in on that! Hey hey hey... You shorted it on your game I heard you. The next...I may have, the next...I probably lost my ass in the process. Yeah but you did! The next refinancing wave will trigger the next issue 2025 when mass refinancing will occur in a low to negative growth environment mixed with higher rates will show many emperors wearing no clothes finally if you can buy private businesses or find the means they allocate so

There's no taste to this It's really you see that blackberry know it tastes a very strong flavored berry Mm-hmm, but tastes like mineral water It really does it is like they forgot the other day They're just packing mineral I'm putting bony baloney labels on everything probably right

Noagendameetups.com And now once again... The rescue cat that ran up a tree A lost dog he's home

2:51:52 Good news everybody! We'd like to end our show particularly where we had creepy moms. Uh, you know what? I'm completely off track here You're right. Yes, okay But you know instead of saying when you and your ISOs you could say about the ISOs you could have said hey you forgot the isos Hey, you forgot the ISOs Oh Thanks well here's my ISO pull my lever that's my only ISO That's probably why Okay what do you have ISO wise John sounds like you got some really good ones?

2:52:36 Dynamite. DYNAMITE! That's pretty good, that's pretty good You've heard that one before Yeah yeah I like it How about hashtag? Hashtag no agenda Nah nah It's too much Okay the thank you Thank you, thank you, thank you No I think dynamite Dynamite is the one Really Yes I like dynamite You don't like dynamite?

I can't, they don't want their names revealed No... Is it the Lib Joes? The Lib Joes are listening again Yeah, Lib Joes Those guys have stopped talking to me Good news! Alright good news! Here we go Sorry I jumped the gun on you Just ever since that glitch I was confused Another Yes, the glitch Which makes me wonder if your AI

2:53:38 This is another, not the same but a different. This is a dog rescue story from your neck of the woods Texas? Texas? Texas! Puppy love this morning on Good Morning El Paso Report we introduce you to a mother and her litter of pups that would not have lived for us to tell this story if it weren't for A Good Samaritan I got a call from a young lady that works for Border Patrol out there and said that people are always dumping animals out there. And this is the second mama they took pictures of and sent to me, and asked if i could help because she was about ready to pop! She was so huge from having so many puppies

2:54:20 Nine puppies to be exact and they are cuties but mama was in such bad shape from being neglected and going without food And water for so long she had complications giving birth. She had to have a c-section So now, to help her recover and give her babies the best chance at a healthy start those babies are now bottle fed every few hours This is truly a happy ending because she definitely wouldn't have made it out there in the desert, in the dirt. And the puppies wouldn't have made it either they you know there's a lot of coyotes and things going on so they would've probably she might've been able to save one or two She's gonna go to a forever home and to know that her babies are well taken care of

2:55:00 I think we did good. I think they all did good thanks to Animal Rescue League these little guys can now be adopted and by the way there's another mama dog she mentioned at the beginning of that piece who was saved with a very similar story so double the puppies if you're looking to adopt a furry family member of your own because a lot of people do want a puppy and there's nothing wrong with wanting a puppy and now there are plenty to choose from. And who can say no those adorable faces right? I will say, I have four dogs at home trying to rescue two cats everyone can just take in another dog No! Not everyone can just take in another dog, but John a great good news story. I feel very... I thought you'd like it? I feel very positive now. Yeah everybody should feel good after that how could you not? It's just nine puppies rescued. It's just all good

2:56:00 I'm ready now. Ready to complete my Sunday with that feeling of good news It really counterbalances the creepy moms vetoing those stories Can't do that anymore We have some end-of-show mixes we got the Clipper Stodian Neil Jones himself kicking it off followed by Professor Jay Jones from China and Phantomville all brand new, all fresh all the time And after this program ends, you will be seamlessly switched over to Behind the Schemes with Boobury and Lavish.
