About this episode

SpaceX engineers witnessed a spectacular rapid unscheduled disassembly of the Starship rocket over Texas as the Super Heavy booster failed its landing burn following a successful hot-stage separation. While Elon Musk celebrates the technical milestones of the 33-Raptor engine flight, the corporate euphemism for the explosion highlights the high-stakes nature of modern aerospace testing. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has ignited a diplomatic firestorm by calling for the resignation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, citing a total loss of confidence in the current leadership's handling of the Gaza humanitarian crisis.

In the United Kingdom, the National Health Service officially banned the routine use of puberty blockers for children, citing a lack of clinical evidence for safety. This medical shift coincides with a massive cyberattack on Change Healthcare by the Black Cat ransomware gang, which resulted in a $22 million payout and the compromise of one-third of all American patient records. In the aviation sector, Boeing faces intense scrutiny after whistleblower John Barnett was found dead in South Carolina during a legal deposition against the company. Simultaneously, an FAA audit of Spirit AeroSystems revealed mechanics using Dawn dish soap and hotel key cards as makeshift tools on aircraft assemblies, while a LATAM Boeing 787 suffered a mid-air drop linked to a critical 22-day software reboot requirement.

Cultural oddities take center stage as New Orleans Police Chief Ann Kirkpatrick reports that rats are eating marijuana evidence in the city's decaying headquarters. The segment features a deep dive into the Gamergate 2 controversy involving Sweet Baby Inc. and a look at the bizarre conspiracy theories surrounding French First Lady Brigitte Macron. The episode concludes with a formal knighting ceremony for Sir Ulrich of Wiener Neustadt and a review of the latest AI-generated submissions from the No Agenda Art Generator.

SpaceX Starship Flight Test, Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly Terminology

SpaceX conducted a live-streamed launch of the Starship rocket from Texas, featuring 33 Raptor engines on the Super Heavy booster. During the flight test, the vehicle experienced a "rapid unscheduled disassembly," or RUD, which the hosts identify as a specific corporate euphemism for an explosion. The discussion highlights the technical achievements of the hot stage separation despite the booster's eventual failure to land.

00:00 Reboot the router. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday March 14th 2024 this is your award winning Give Our Nation Media assassination episode 1642 This Is No Agenda. Tracking TikTok trouble and broadcasting live from the heart of the Tictusua country here in FEMA region number six In The Morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're tracking to SpaceX Rocket! I'm John C. Dvorak It's Crackpot and Buzzkill! In the morning. We're not tracking the SpaceX rocket. You know, like Gene... Sir Gene He always texts me like it launched Well you know that it's being launched from Texas you should be right on top of this well No I'm not if that's what I have gene for that Jean takes care of their stuff

00:50 Regarding the rocket, I have a Ask Adam right off the bat. Oh my goodness! Okay all right. You're at the ready. It's just coincidence that i had it ready. Is it crazy? All right what is this Space X-Bee question? Here's the premise So they're live-streaming the SpaceX launch of this big giant rocket that's supposed to go to Mars. With 33 after burning nitro burnin' funny cars. Yeah, and on yeah and so during the prelim they're yakking away about this in that so they start talking about the different tests

01:34 That typically blew up and now is this thing going to the moon or is it just gonna float around for no? This is gonna know this one's just gonna go around their earth and then crash into the ground Oh groovy Land on the pad like it always does like oh, no they actually the booster in this case said It didn't light upright And I wasn't gonna land on the pad anyway They're just throwing stuff away, so okay. Yes This is part of the prelim they go into discussion about the last rocket launch the second version of this thing and it ends with a very interesting little It's just I just begs for an ask Adam before we dive into the details of today's test Let's recap the achievements of our last integrated flight test flight to

02:21 All 33 Raptor engines on the Super Heavy booster started up successfully and for the first time completed a full duration burn during ascent. As you can see here, we saw amazing views of each Raptor engine burning during that ascent which is something something awesome because we don't get to see that with Falcon and its Merlin engines. Now next Starship executed a successful hot stage separation powering down all but three of Super Heavy's Raptor engines and successfully igniting the six second-stage Raptor engines before the vehicle separated this is the first time this technique has been done successfully with a vehicle of this size in scale well

02:58 Following separation, the super heavy booster successfully performed its flip maneuver and initiated the boost back burn. However about 30 seconds into that burn it experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly or rut. That's SpaceX speak for... A rut! Rapid unscheduled disassembly everybody mm-hmm okay what's the ask Adam I'm good at this. Did you hear the very last ending? Yeah, the RUD. No the very last ending where she says something... Oh hold on let me listen again. ...unscheduled disassembly or RUD that's SpaceX speak for... Oh that's SpaceX speak for

03:42 Okay, that's space X now. We know musk is a truth-teller and all the rest so so I'm asking you what is gonna be Their space x speak is it going to before it exploded? It blowed up What give you have to what do you think that dick cuz you know Musk is a straight talker So what do you think that she's gonna say next oh Well, it's clearly not gonna be blowed up or explosion because that wouldn't be SpaceX speak Which is a show title if I ever heard one spacex speak. I'd say Failure you don't have the creativity of space X. You'll never work there Okay, here's the answer unscheduled disassembly or rut that spacex speak for an exciting end to the boosters journey

04:37 An exciting end to the Boosters journey. Hey baby, I'm gonna rudge you tonight! That's my Adam speak for an exciting end to an Adam journey. Woohoo! I'm surprised...I thought that you would certainly bring us up-to-date on the Grand Sumo highlights It just started. I know what it means we've had three days four days already mean who whose and who was on first? Yeah, who's this about five or six guys tied?

You give us all those grand sumo update at least here in Fuji and some of the other at least did the Yokozuna is in place. That's because he won the last one. The guys won nine tournaments so far if Yokozuna is in play. I'm glued to it

CHAPTER 02 / 51 Discussion

Pi Day, National Nap Day, Bird Flu in Penguins

The hosts acknowledge March 14th as Pi Day and note the passing of National Nap Day. A brief discussion ensues regarding the lack of donation enthusiasm compared to the COVID-19 era. A news item about penguins contracting bird flu is mentioned as a potential precursor to a new pandemic narrative.

pi day· national nap day· bird flu· penguins· pandemic

05:35 Yeah, I have be happy Pi Day. Happy Pi Day everybody yes We missed National Nap day somehow which is very nice. I've never been a big have not done as well He had nap for humanity we had a jingle we had pictures of Michael Butler's daughter sleeping oh Crap yeah my whole system broke it couldn't get a nickel out of it Yeah, but well I mean how did we do with Nap for Human? With Pi Day. People always used to alert us in droves about Pi day. Oh! Pi days coming up. I'd say it was mediocre. It wasn't a flop like Valentine's day Well that is because there is no more love in the world

06:27 There was during the COVID era, Valentine's Day was a big hit. Now that that's over we got to have some more disease I think to get our donations up. Oh there it is! Why do we need a new pandemic to get those donations? Bird flu Well, you sent me that article that the penguins now have the bird flu. I thought that was novel. I like that. Penguins with bird flu since they can't fly? That doesn't make sense! Anyway something amazing happened this morning... I was monitoring the networks. I was monitoring Andrea Mitchell because she, you know even though she can barely... She can't speak anymore! She's always messing everything up it's really odd. She is 96 I think That's unfair but you know they should just have her do different types of shows when it's breaking news I mean she not really good at it anymore. She never was. She has always been a commentator

CHAPTER 03 / 51 Discussion

Chuck Schumer, Benjamin Netanyahu Resignation Call

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called for new elections in Israel and the resignation of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Schumer cited Netanyahu's opposition to a two-state solution and the humanitarian situation in Gaza as primary reasons for the loss of confidence. The hosts compare the rhetoric to potential interference in other foreign governments like Ukraine.

chuck schumer· benjamin netanyahu· israel· gaza· palestinian state

07:28 And so right on the heels, this was really quite surprising. Right on the heels of the Jews controlling the media... Good work boys! Now the Zionist Jews who control the American government have decided to coup themselves. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer today became the highest ranking Democratic politician to call for the resignation of Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, for his opposition to a Palestinian state and for these overall situation for Palestinian civilians in Gaza Five months into this conflict it is clear that Israelis need to take stock of the situation and ask must we change course?

08:25 At this critical juncture, I believe a new election is the only way to allow for a healthy and open decision-making process about the future of Israel at a time when so many Israelis have lost their confidence in the vision and direction of their government. That's some power right there! I'll tell you what, play it again and substitute the word Ukraine. Yeah yeah Ukraine is this is dynamite! I actually chopped up that video that you posted this morning...I think we should just play it there was a two-camera

CHAPTER 04 / 51 Discussion

Emmanuel Macron, Volodymyr Zelensky Staged Negotiation Video

A two-camera scripted video featuring French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky surfaced, appearing to show a phone call regarding peace negotiations. The hosts analyze the production quality and timing of the clip, questioning if it is contemporary or a re-released older recording. The dialogue involves Zelensky expressing a willingness to sit at a negotiating table.

emmanuel macron· volodymyr zelensky· kiev· switzerland· russia

09:08 scripted, two camera shoot. Yeah for some unknown reason a two-camera shoot of McCrone taking a call from Zelensky in the early days phases of the war no this is now this is now? This is now! Oh it sounds like it sounds like they're early stages No I think this is now You're telling me this is not now? Well, now you've got me confused. I was getting this as a new occurrence! I mean i think they were per-mush...per-mooshing... That's a good one! They were pushing or promoting the notion that this has just happened

09:45 The whole thing seems super staged to me because of the two camera shoot. There's no reason to do that You have two cameras in the guys office and they're doing it, you know They got a what a floor director or floor guy pointing at each camera and what's going on in there? Well, but the big thing well I think its current John because they're talking about negotiating Did you watch the whole thing I did. Okay, play it, play it, play it with me. And they'd started with a little bit of music and then the music went away...I chopped out all the silences because they left these long like the acting coach had said don't rush your lines

10:28 Take it easy, take a beat. Take a beat or two or three and then deliver your next line. See he's saying they're in Kiev! Do you think this is... now I'm questioning it if its old because I don't like being hoaxed like that do you think that this is old? Well, they're in Kiev. The only time that the Russians were floating around Kiev was at the very beginning of the war They were never in Kiev Maybe there were a few tanks or something that ran through thinking they're gonna get you know Somebody's gonna throw posies out I'm not sure but they're not in Kiev at the moment Yeah, I don't want to play it then I mean because it's not all that great quality another quality sucks I just

11:28 So it's much better. At the end is then, is the money shot here? He will stop. He will listen to you and what I want to say just stop the war. But he will ask where are you ready to go You're ready to sit down around the table and start negotiating. So that I mean, I've never heard this clip before Are you ready to sit down around the table and start negotiating? Okay, that does make it sound more contemporary because there's gonna be some meetings in Switzerland that Russia refuses to attend because the meetings are going to be around a Zelensky proposal for peace. Well, let's listen to this last 30 seconds of this little skit they did. You're ready to sit down and start negotiating?

12:18 We have to, of course we have to. Okay, Vladimir as soon I get feedback from this side I will do it and let me revert you on what can be done. For sure there are very few things on the Russian side but let me see with my people what could make sense to help on this issue. Okay thank you. The whole video is worth watching with the subtitles a little easier to follow, but I'd never heard of this subtitle where he says yeah Well you got ready sit down around then the negotiating table well of course He says nah that can't that has to be now or as you say cool either has to be now But I don't when does he ever? Yeah because he's always said no It's all of us. Any saying yeah by the way Everyone listening within the sound of my voice

CHAPTER 05 / 51 Discussion

Brigitte Macron, Candace Owens Gender Conspiracy Theory

Candace Owens released a lengthy podcast segment investigating a conspiracy theory claiming French First Lady Brigitte Macron was born a man named Jean-Michel. The hosts discuss the potential political motivations behind spreading such a scandal, suggesting it might be a "controlled" effort to embarrass President Macron due to his recent hawkish stance on the Ukraine conflict.

brigitte macron· emmanuel macron· candace owens· jean-michel· france

13:12 What did the Algo tell you to worry about today, huh? I don't know about you but everybody in the neighborhood seems to be really hot on this really big story. It's about Macron! You better sit down no pull over wake the kids! The biggest political scandal ever and no i am not being dramatic if what is happening right now in France is real And I can tell you right now, I firmly believe that it is. This is Candace Owens! We have to take her at her word. Actually, I didn't have any plans for this... Although I thought it might be worth talking about in passing but since you have the clip we have to get into it. Now this is ridiculous It's only the setup so I don't have a short clip. I'm not gonna drag it out The fact that Candice Owens did a 45 minute podcast about this

14:02 That was in conjunction with either I think that this story's been okay a couple of things. Now you want to tell people what we're talking about? No, let's listen. Or no. No, we'll listen to it is funny It stands by itself and then will dissect what could be going on here Yes Then barring political assassinations This is potentially the biggest political scandal that has ever happened in the history of the world Sure I mean, it's so important that I'm not just going to ask you guys to watch this but to also share it It's another potential- It's bigger than Watergate! Bigger than January 6th! Blackmail ring This Is

14:38 Crazy. I'm talking crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy stop everything pay attention if you're driving pullover Emmanuel Macron is the president of France he is married to Brigitte Macron okay their love story has always been extremely weird and extremely creepy there was just an article that was published in the Daily Mail here's the headline The proof, France's first lady wasn't born a man. What? I was going what? So of course instantly read it because what a bizarre thing that you're even needing to present proof that Brigitte Macron was not born a man. So the quote unquote conspiracy theory is actually a three year thorough investigation that was conducted by journalists

15:26 that were working with genealogists. Their theory is that the first lady, Brigitte Macron was actually born Jean-Michel. So Brigitte is actually John Michael. John Michael lived as a man for 30 years, fathered five children and then transitioned at the age of 30 to become Brigitte. I was so surprised that Candace Owens did anything on this story, but her setup to me could only be we have to embarrass Macron because he's doing boots on the ground bull crap. Okay, so I'm going to preface what you're saying

16:12 You're going to, and I should mention that she said specifically she's gonna put her career on the line. Stake her career on the line! Yes, her whole career. Stake her career that this is true. So what you would be suggesting as you unfold this scandal... is that Candace Owens is a agent of the US government. She's a spook? No, no she's controlling... And she's presenting misinformation for the purposes of embarrassing Macron based on what she was told to do I think she is a controlled opportunist For sure! Yes and that doesn't mean that she's working for an agency you know like we don't actually work for The Zionists wink-wink

16:56 No, but that she gets this story and gets reliable. You know what it's like? Like hey Candace I'm over here boots on the ground in a three-letter agency let me tell you what I've learned oh yeah Let me check you out to do go to LinkedIn Oh my god yes, you work there okay? I mean I know how this works. Are you good? How does it work? Yeah That would work he would be Okay, just don't say where you got this information. It's gonna make it look terrific I'm gonna be on top of this. You can be number one yeah, I'm gonna send you this from proton mail is secure I've got a link to a Brighteon video if you love it Yes So so I was thinking it could be it could be that this story comes out to embarrass Macron then all of a sudden He's gotta be the guy that ends the war

17:49 Yeah, don't worry about it. I'm going to talk to my people here Volod. Talk to my people and get back to you soon." Are you safe? Are you sure you're safe?" Okay! You ready sit around the negotiating table? This was MY idea because if i go to the Russkies or Putin they are gonna want to sit down. Are you ready? I am doing this for ya. It's my idea to have a two camera shoot in my office. Here is your script. That was great. So just putting that together Something is up and it's time. It is time we have to end this thing the money is just not working Nobody although, oh though that's not entirely by the way. I was on Tyler Biden ends this thing before like summer Yeah, he can use it as a campaign point talking point well Here's the latest ended it in a surprise move today Oh

18:44 In a surprise move, the White House today announcing a new $300 million weapons package for Ukraine. This despite the gridlock that's kept Congress from passing new Ukraine aid for months. Pentagon officials say they were able to come up with the money through savings on long-term contracts with weapon makers. Hey, we did a long-term contract and we saved money yet said no contractor ever. Said the Pentagon never what that is such bull crap. Oh No! Oh no please never you know I'm still thinking of the spooky side of this yeah so visualize The Speaker of the House Mike Johnson Yeah spook

CHAPTER 06 / 51 Discussion

Pentagon Ukraine Weapons Package, Mike Johnson

The White House announced a new $300 million weapons package for Ukraine, claiming the funds were sourced from Pentagon contract savings. This move bypasses the current congressional deadlock over foreign aid. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is discussed in the context of his role as a "bureaucrat" and his perceived alignment with the intelligence community.

17:49 Yeah, don't worry about it. I'm going to talk to my people here Volod. Talk to my people and get back to you soon." Are you safe? Are you sure you're safe?" Okay!

19:32 Oh, yes. A Christian nationalist spook. That's not dotting the ordinary! No it used to be Catholics in action and then the Catholics lapsed so you know the Christian nationalists took over the business yeah I believe that It just looks like one. He's got that look of a guy who is a bureaucrat, he knows what he is doing... He also looks like a choir boy so I don't know. No, he looks more like a spook than a choir boy to me. But let us just stick with what is going on because the EU

CHAPTER 07 / 51 Discussion

European Union, Seized Russian Asset Profits for Ukraine

The European Union and Euroclear are planning to divert interest profits generated by €190 billion in frozen Russian assets to fund the Ukrainian war effort. The Financial Times reports that payments could begin as early as July. The hosts question the legality and ethics of using interest from seized sovereign funds while the underlying assets remain frozen.

european union· euroclear· russia· ukraine· interest profits

20:13 is now dancing around what they have been talking about doing, which is stealing the Russian money. And we already kind of identified the plan and because there's no money... By the way that's Trump's fault Because there's no money going to Ukraine. They've come up with the novel solution which I think we indicated was a way to go couple shows ago So it was toward Brussels reportedly planning to take the profits Generated by seized Russian assets in Europe and send that money to Ukraine The Financial Times reporting that the first payments could come as early as this July Euroclear is a Brussels-based financial services firm that handles cross border securities settlements. Some 190 billion euros in Russian assets are frozen there by Western sanctions, those assets continue to generate profits around 3.8 billion per year in interest and other payouts. Western countries have so far been divided about whether or not to give Russia's

21:11 underlying assets to Ukraine, so the EU now instead focusing on just sending the profits that those assets generate to fund Kiev's war effort. And the plan comes as financial aid to Ukraine has been rather stalled in recent months? It has indeed. Ukraine says only about half Do you think that they invested in treasuries or did they maybe buy some Bitcoin?

21:55 What do you think they, so what does Euroclear do? They just oh it was interest and some other investments that they made. So they're investing Russia's frozen money is that what they're doing? You have to put aside maybe some euro bonds I mean this is pretty interesting you know we're not really gonna steal your money but didn't we pay back Iran's money with interests I don't know if it's a with interest part of it. I think we did, I think we paid him back or yes, I'm thinking of records Well their money is going to be in an account Yeah, and the money in the account will be accumulating interest into back into the account So you if you're gonna pull them account out. You just don't take their profits That's really nice. You know when you when you freeze money for a war for war criminals But we'll let you get interest just in case the war ends then we can give it back to you It sounds all a little bit specious

22:55 Well, there's this the aspect of it is hey you took my money in an inflationary economy and You giving me my money back ten years later Which is like? You know I've lost like 20% Where's the interest half a million people died that's not maybe give the interest to them or their families Nah, screw y'all. We're just... Well they were never going to give anything to the people. Yeah okay exactly Big spot holes for that matter So if that wasn't the number one most discussed or most important thing the algo was telling everybody Oh! oh no I mean seriously i got from uh let me read this my friends in Austin and you know they know I'm on the you know I got my ear to the ground I know stuff is going on

CHAPTER 08 / 51 Discussion

Kate Middleton, AI Photo Controversy

A controversial photo of Kate Middleton and her children is analyzed for signs of AI generation rather than simple Photoshop retouching. The hosts point out anatomical anomalies in the children's hands and the impossibility of the subjects' expressions. The segment highlights the public's obsession with the Princess of Wales's health and whereabouts.

kate middleton· royal family· ai· photoshop· princess of wales

23:49 So literally the question was, is Brigitte Macron a tranny? Yes you are considered... Somebody actually sent you that. Oh yeah! The former Hollywood executive and the second question Is Kate Middleton dead? I mean, it's unbelievable. That is a big question we all wonder if Kate Middleton is dead she supposed to be in a coma It's unbelievable what people are concerned about As an aside that phony baloney picture of her...I did not put it in the newsletter but the phony baloney picture of her with their three kids surrounding her and she's grabbing them She doesn't have her ring on was great

24:29 That picture and everyone says, oh they photoshopped. That's not a Photoshopped picture! That picture is the classic example of AI And as said the expert John C. Dvorak Besides the fact that her hands are in their wrong positions but one kid's weird hand has got the wrong finger Now you're doing the same thing You're now in the discussion I'm just saying it's an aside. You heard the word aside Yeah, I just want to get this off my chest Okay Which is the fact that everyone keeps saying it was photoshopped. No, they kept... I heard it was AI retouched! I'm telling you, I could find Photoshop after Photoshop after Photoshop mention on clips. You brought it up by the way Kate Middleton And then I dropped it and you said as an aside and then you moved to center range That's because since you brought it up I have to complain about people saying it was photoshopped. The other giveaway

25:27 You can't get three kids in any photo to smile at the same time looking like that. It's impossible! It's true, it's true... But again it's amazing what the Algos do to people. Oh I need to know about this this is important stuff Kate Middleton please! Really though I wish her well but the most unimportant thing in the universe And then, let's get back to the Jews for a second because this is too funny. So now this other controlled opportunist Ian Carroll he's the guy that started the whole Diddy thing

CHAPTER 09 / 51 Discussion

Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL TikTok Ban Recording

A leaked recording of ADL head Jonathan Greenblatt reveals concerns over a "TikTok problem" regarding Gen Z's perception of the Israel-Palestine conflict. The hosts discuss claims that pro-Israel lobbying is a primary driver behind the legislative push to ban or divest TikTok in the United States, rather than concerns about Chinese espionage.

jonathan greenblatt· adl· tiktok· gen z· israel

26:09 the Diddy lawsuit with the sex parties and immediately connected it to Whitney Webb's outstanding reporting on J. Edgar Hoover. Yeah, there's the giveaway! Right? And everyone is now sending me links to this guy on Twitter and he's on TikTok but it posts on Twitter like This guy, this is a good explanation. This explains exactly what's going on with TikTok! It's the Jews! The Jews want it gone! So they're pushing another TikTok ban bill really hard but something does not add up about- Oh something does not add uuuup! About it at all Bro I've been trying to wrap my head around this for the last couple days and nothing was making sense until I stumbled upon this leaked recording

26:52 First off, what I'm about to get into is highly controversial. It's extremely sensitive so i'm gonna have to be really careful it's a leaked recording John from four or five months ago leaked recording very highly sensitive stand back it's on X. This leaked recording is from about four or five months ago it's Jonathan Greenblatt he is the head of the Anti-Defamation League We really have a TikTok problem, the Chelsea problem. Because again like we've been chasing this left right divide it's the wrong change So what he's saying here is we have a Gen Z problem. He does because see all the Palestinian protests, we have a TikTok problem We need the same brains that were behind Taglit which is you know go back to Israel, the Taglits

27:55 He's talking about a PR campaign. He's not talking about getting rid of it. No, but then he just called his fellow Jews over there in American government and they'll get rid of it! We need to put our energy towards this like fast Clear as day we have a generational problem here I can barely understand it TikTok problem and we're gonna need to put all our energy into this If there is any lobby that owns more US politicians It is this one I can't really say it out loud, but he's pointing towards a pack documents. This is the one Democrats and Republicans alike fear this lobbies clout we can count on well over half the house 250 to 300 members to do reflexively whatever

28:40 They want in 24 hours. We could have the signatures of 70 senators on this napkin That's right, that's how they're getting rid of BB literally playing out right before our very eyes There's also this time magazine article that just came out why tick-tock needs to be sold or banned before the 2024 election The article barely even mentions China or election security Oh entirety of it focuses solely on this issue Right here Another chart from the article. And the ironic thing is that, yes it's true a foreign government has infiltrated the US except it's just not the country they want you to think it is It's not China! It's Israel don't you see? They're responsible for taking down TikTok Oh so I have a couple of TikTok clips to play

CHAPTER 10 / 51 Discussion

House TikTok Divestiture Bill, Silicon Valley Lobbying

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill requiring ByteDance to divest from TikTok within six months or face a ban. The hosts examine the role of Oracle in hosting U.S. data and the influence of Silicon Valley donors like Google on bill sponsor Mike Gallagher. A specific exemption in the bill for review sites like Yelp is highlighted as evidence of targeted lobbying.

tiktok· bytedance· oracle· mike gallagher· yelp

29:33 First, Associated Press decided to roll out their Gen Z reporter. Which I mean you look at this young woman and she's a nerd and she's visually perfect for the piece delivery 4 minus. TikTok might get banned in the United States not yet But the proposed bill passed today in the House and is headed to the Senate. The rules are suspended, the bill has passed and without the objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table Democrats and Republicans have raised concerns for some time because parent company ByteDance is based in China Was it developed in China? Some of it is Is the user data

30:16 the 170 million Americans on TikTok secure? Or will China's ruling party compel ByteDance to hand the data over. Under a 2017 law, they can do that. The bill isn't a clear-cut ban — it would require the parent company to divest from TikTok within six months of the bill's enactment or it's out This has come up before. Last March, a ban was on the table and CEO Suzy Chu told lawmakers during a hearing that the company was migrating U.S. user data to servers with the Texas-based company Oracle and even before that Trump tried to ban the app through executive order in preparation for this vote TikTok sent a notification to some users urging them to call their representatives and speak out against this bill again this bill has bipartisan support and Biden's White House provided technical support in the draft even though he is campaigning for 2024 on TikTok

31:01 Alright, so worthless report but I needed to show the idiocy of them rolling out the Gen Z to report on this. Which has nothing to do with spying but let's talk to Jim Hines he is the ranking member of the House Intel Committee So the house just passed this bill which says in which oh man there was so much about Well actually I'll play this first. Massey, like this is a Patriot Act! The gentleman from Kentucky is recognized Mr Speaker I know the sponsors of this bill are sincere in their concerns and in their effort to protect Americans they've described the TikTok application as a Trojan horse but there's some of us who feel that

31:52 either intentionally or unintentionally, this legislation to ban TikTok is actually a Trojan horse. Some of us are concerned that there are First Amendment implications here. Americans have the right to view information. We don't need to be protected by the government from information. Some of us just don't want the president picking which apps we can put on our phones or which websites that we can visit We don't think that's appropriate. We also think it is dangerous to give the president that kind of power, to give him the power to decide what Americans can see on their phones and computers. To give him that sort of discretion we also think is dangerous. Now people say this TikTok ban will only apply to TikTok or maybe another company that pops up just like TikTok

32:40 But the bill is written so broadly that the president could abuse that discretion and include other companies, that aren't just social media companies. And they aren't as some people would believe controlled by foreign adversaries Again we're giving the President that discretion to decide whether it is controlled by a foreign adversary There were some people who were legitimately concerned that this was an overly broad bill, and they got an exclusion written into the bill that I want to read. It says, the covered company does not include an entity that operates a website or application whose primary purpose is to allow users to post product reviews business reviews or travel information in reviews

33:26 Why is this exception in the bill? Why did somebody feel like they needed this exception if the bill itself only covers social media applications that foreign adversaries are running. These and other questions we hope to answer in the course of this debate, and I reserve the balance of my time It's gotten increasingly hard to determine who is taking money from which Silicon Valley entity because a lot of it comes from lobbying firms and other firms that are, you know. You don't know who their customers are but again the guy who introduces Bill... I'm sorry you also have super PACS

34:01 It does that too, but super packs are shown as a super pack in OpenSecrets.org The guy who introduced this bill Gallagher He you know one of his biggest donors is Google So this is obviously Silicon Valley so what we called it the last time But you know they're eating our lunch but whoever owns Yelp I guess they're protected because they got a little provision in there like hey not for review sites Okay or maybe against Yelp Who does own Yelp? It's publicly traded, isn't it? Oh well there is a short then. I mean this is so blatantly obvious and of course this is as we talked about this is ultimately you want people focused on China You want them worried about China. China is a problem Don't look at Ukraine don't look at Russia We can do anything with those guys Here's 300 million dollars shut up Do your little skit

CHAPTER 11 / 51 Discussion

Jim Himes, First Amendment Opposition to TikTok Ban

Congressman Jim Himes, ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, explains his vote against the TikTok ban, citing First Amendment concerns and the lack of evidence regarding Chinese election interference. Himes argues that the U.S. should focus on a federal privacy bill rather than targeting a single platform, while the hosts suggest his real goal is broader social media regulation.

jim himes· house intel committee· first amendment· china· social media regulation

34:58 Here is, so this was this morning Jim Hines the ranking member of the Intelligence Committee. The guys who had this in committee and then you know passed they they passed it And then it went to a vote and the House went, oh yeah, oh yeah. TikTok gotta ban it. Oh yeah I got to get rid of it gotta get rid of it and this guy voted no. Joining me now is Democratic Congressman Jim Himes ranking member of the Intelligence Committee he voted against the bill so you're an intelligence expert you know that the worldwide threat said that they are trying to interfere in the 2022 election Wait! I thought it was Russia? And now it's China? Did you hear that China interfered in the 2022 election?

35:42 The 2022 election was the interim election. Yeah, did China win? The Democrats won. Why did you vote against it? Well Andrea yeah I have a very specific sense for the threat i spent a lot of time thinking about it and it is a specific threat It is largely a potential threat in as much as we have not seen the Chinese so far use TikTok as a way to influence the elections but look this is also... But look wait a minute this guy's on the Intel committee he's saying We haven't really seen that, but look. A broader topic you know spend a moment or two on Twitter X You know look at the influence that Elon Musk has The point I'm making here is that if the Congress were serious about dealing with this threat we would start with a federal privacy bill But more importantly and here's why I voted no more importantly You know? I'm pretty serious about supporting in the First Amendment I'm pretty serious about freedom of expression for United States government to tell

36:35 million people in the United States, which this would happen if Biden didn't divest of TikTok. For the government to say to 150 million Americans you can no longer participate in this venue of protected speech first of all it would run into First Amendment problems we saw that and in Montana where they tried to do this and secondly you know our entire history as a country saying to dictatorial regimes, you can't shut down newspapers. You can't shut down the public square and for the United States to take that step based on a bill that had all of four days consideration in the house I just...I was not going to be a part of that So this guy clearly parroting the TikTok CEO talking points which is this is violation of your First Amendment rights

37:24 Oh please. So this guy, I think he's mad because he wants control of all social media companies not just a single TikTok bill that's no good and by the way he calls it for what it is. I take your point so why do you think Marco Rubio and Mark Warner the bipartisan chair and vice-chair Senate Intelligence Committee voted in favor of it? People are falling all over themselves to appear hawkish against China. And that instinct is not a bad one, China is doing lots and lots of things that we would rather they did no do but China's also a place where we do 700 billion dollars in trade it's a place where we have you know certain common interests

38:19 that we should be working together on. And so just because the Congress is falling all over itself for each member to demonstrate how hawkish they are on China, that doesn't mean that compromising the Bill of Rights, the First Amendment, the Constitution that we all take an oath to support... That's necessarily the right thing to do." So he's calling it correctly this is about virtue signaling China's bad pay attention America! China, China, China And then at the end he comes out again with, he's so concerned about the First Amendment that he wants to regulate all social media. By the way don't get me wrong here I would be much happier if TikTok were not ultimately owned by a Chinese company. I would be much happier if their algorithms are here in United States. I'm not going say that Steve Mnuchin is the guy but I hope there is disposition there but remember Andrew this is really important you know we

39:11 Twitter, all these other social media platforms are completely unregulated and uncontrolled because the Congress has failed its basic duty to pass privacy legislation. Until we do that Andrew, the way the Europeans have, the way the state of California has, were not really in a position to be overly preachy about about the dangers associated with social media. Those dangers, like I said spend 10 minutes on Twitter X and you'll see we've got a lot of work to do around all social media platforms before we start getting high and mighty about one in particular." So this guy wants to regulate everything he's full of crap on all accounts

CHAPTER 12 / 51 Discussion

Steve Mnuchin, Investor Group to Purchase TikTok

Former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin announced on CNBC that he is assembling an investor group to acquire TikTok. Mnuchin argues the app should be owned by U.S. businesses and rebuilt with domestic technology to ensure security. He emphasizes that the purchase should avoid big tech companies to prevent antitrust issues.

steve mnuchin· tiktok· cfius· antitrust· facebook

39:50 But he's right about the China virtue signaling and he brings up Mnuchin. Well, this just makes it more hilarious! The Trump treasure secretary, Mnuchin who... He has gotten rid of his tics by the way. He was on CNBC and you know I'm hyper-focused. He had zero Tourette's like just before that interview started he had a little twitch there but he has it well under control And he figured, you know what? I can go buy that because I'm a Newton. Well when i was treasury secretary I chaired CFIUS and CFIUS approved and I had President Trump sign an order that TikTok had to be sold. And I continue to believe that so I think the legislation should pass

40:37 And I think it should be sold. I understand the technology, it's a great business and I'm going to put together a group to buy TikTok You're trying to buy TikTok? I am because they should be owned by US businesses There is no way that the Chinese would ever let a U.S company own something like this in China Have you already put a group together I'm working on it. You're exploring a group? I've spoken to a bunch of people, but... Who would be part of your group? I can't tell that to you now, but uh... Can we make guesses because there should be... It would be a combination of investors so there'd be no one investor that controlled this and the issue is all about the technology This needs to be controlled by U.S. business Let me ask you a very practical question If you talk to folks inside the world of TikTok themselves

41:21 They would suggest that is almost impossible within a six month time period. What do you know about now that you've studied this business? Several years ago, and I imagine you continue to how you would actually operationally do it well Let me first say I don't think this should be controlled by any of the big US tech companies I think there could be antitrust issues on that and there should be something that's independent so we have a real competitor in And users love it, so it shouldn't be shut down. The technology I won't go into all the details but the app needs to be rebuilt in the US It needs to be U.S. technology. I think there's a lot that could be done and six months but I would work closely with the us and with China Do you think that bill would need to get rewritten by the Senate effectively? To give you more than six months is this timing issue do you think? I think a lot can be done in 6 months

42:16 He just said he couldn't do it in six months. A lot, a lot can be done! I can do a lot in six months Last clip here If it really is getting children to hate America and believe Osama Bin Laden's letter And is it really helping illegals? I'm sorry newcomers cross the border Do you believe that the data that is collecting today both the data that's being collected and potentially certain things are being pushed. Andrew Ross Sorkin is a dork! I mean, does he not know that every single app that is on a phone collects all this data? It's the same data. TikTok has nothing special except oh yeah these are the videos you watch... You're watching reels it's repurposed TikTok videos it's the same thing Do you believe that the data that is collecting today

43:15 Both the data that's being collected and potentially certain things are being pushed to the users is being influenced and directed by Chinese government today. Or do you look at this as a prospective national security threat? Meaning it has not been put into practice in any meaningful way right now, but the worry is that one day it could. Which is it?" Well I'm not going to comment on what's today but I will comment there's no question that on a forward basis they have both the ability to influence the data and they have the ability

43:53 which is probably the bigger concern. But you're not going to comment on today because you can't do that without giving away things that you might know that others wouldn't? That's true and also I think kind of the issue today again, I think the focus should be it should be sold it should be controlled by a US business It's a great company. It would be terrible if it would shut down lots of users use this What do you think will do? And we need a competitor to Facebook Instagram and YouTube No... well do we now This is this whole thing. Do you really think he can put together enough money? I mean, this thing will be valued. We think today even at the cut prices because it might get kicked out of the app stores It's probably 250 billion dollars Well, it's actually 60 according to everybody Yeah, yeah, I don't buy that but it's like

CHAPTER 13 / 51 Discussion

TikTok Algorithm, Market Competition vs. Bans

The hosts debate whether the push to ban TikTok is a result of American tech companies being unable to compete with its superior algorithm. They describe the TikTok user experience as simple entertainment that creates "filter bubbles" based on user interest, contrasting it with the more complex or less effective algorithms of YouTube and Instagram.

tiktok· algorithm· youtube· instagram· competition

44:50 This whole thing, you know it's annoying besides the fact that we're the ones always bitching about China shutting down our stuff. The idea that we can't compete with international companies... I mean Made in America is great when its made in America But if something better comes along, shouldn't that give us some impetus to do... you know to compete with them instead of bitching and moaning and shutting them down because we can't compete with them? I mean i think it's like we've sunk into that. We have to shut these guys down because we can't compete! I think your initial thesis is-we don't want to forget that which is this is just a- YouTube This is for YouTube and Google

45:36 Facebook and Twitter because they don't want these guys around. It's the Insta! And also, you know I'm not so impressed their algorithm is quite simple You like blue hair and trans? Here's all your blue-hair trans videos. How hard is that?! You like Jesus, here are your Jesus videos! We're not going to put any BLs above videos in your Jesus videos. It's that simple!" And now it isn't that simple but I have never... you know, you listen to the earlier clip where some ADL or somebody has irked about anti Jewish content of Gaza something

46:16 I have, I go on TikTok probably more than you do because i like to look for clips and I have never seen one anti-Jewish clip on TikTok ever because they don't send them to me. Because I'm always looking for their blue haired teacher, you know that's non-binary. You get the non binaries! Yeah, I get a bunch of non binary guys or women with the big thing in their nose and it looks like a bull. But remember we kept hearing from... They want TikTok gone because that's where MAGA is. No if your MAGA you're gonna get MAGA clips. Well I take it..no In fact I have some clips

46:54 Part of a presentation, but I do have some tik-tok clips and they were sure anti mega But that's what I'm saying their algo is so beautifully simple They just say instead of We have to if someone's over here in their filter bubble we have to give them a little bit of You know controversy because then they fight and then they're on it longer. No, tick-tock I don't think that I mean, I know you can comment people don't even really care Flip flip flip just go through it 100% It is a

47:32 It's the, you don't find that. You just get it's just entertainment after you want to watch people falling on their ass? You don't need a comment on that. You're just bored and there is another one Oh look at that one fall on her ass Exactly! That's the genius of TikTok And there are thousands of people falling on their ass And that's the genius of TikTok I don't understand how can it be so hard Well I guess its hard to retool YouTube then Algo or whatever I don't see why it's so difficult In fact, we should buy TikTok. We know how to do it! I'll call up my TikTok friend. Mnuchin's ticking for Tok. Now this is ridiculous so yes there is an element of China in there but by the way this just broke this morning let me see where is it now

CHAPTER 14 / 51 Discussion

CIA Clandestine Campaign, Donald Trump China Operation

A Reuters exclusive reports that in 2019, President Donald Trump authorized a clandestine CIA operation to use fake social media identities to turn public opinion in China against the government. The operation allegedly leaked disparaging intelligence about the Belt and Road Initiative and corruption within the Communist Party. The hosts question the timing of this leak and its potential to blame Trump for current China relations.

cia· donald trump· china· xi jinping· reuters

48:27 which I was looking for. I couldn't find any news clips yet it's an exclusive from Reuters Today, two years into office President Donald Trump authorized the Central Intelligence Agency to launch a clandestine campaign on Chinese social media aimed at turning public opinion in China against its government according to former US officials with direct knowledge of the highly classified operation. So that's code for the CIA leaked this

49:03 Yeah, highly classified. If it's that classified how did that get out at all? The three former officials told Reuters that the CIA created a small team of operatives who used bogus internet identities... Oh no! Mark Pugner to spread negative narratives about Xi Jinping government while leaking disparaging intelligence to overseas news outlets The effort, which began in 2019 has not previously been reported. So what is this? Hold on with a stop it for a second and do a quick analysis Why does Trump have to be involved if they're gonna do this at all okay here's to give it the okay Here's where I was thinking we can blame Trump for China problems

49:53 We can blame Trump on COVID. But Biden actually did that in his State of the Union. Well, this is what I'm saying we can blame COVID on Trump because in 2019 they started to meddle with the Chinese on their own social networking sites and the Chinese went oh yeah take COVID there's all kinds of possibilities with this They're all lame but you know for sure this is a plant from the CIA Oh, here. They promoted allegations that members of the ruling Communist Party were hiding ill-gotten money overseas and slammed... slammed! It's a CIA term. Slammed as corrupt and wasteful China's Belt Road Initiative which provides financing for infrastructure projects in the developing world, the sources told Reuters This is some kind of binary setup on Trump

50:48 that will unfold but they're gonna blame something on Trump regarding China. Oh, it was his fault? I mean it makes zero sense! Well this is weak... And it's a Reuters exclusive! Maybe it's a compliment to Trump Whatever it is, the timing is... there's no coincidences. All this China stuff is happening and now we're gonna blame something on Trump? Well we have China problems. China is a problem in the Indo-Pacific yet Trump if only Trump hadn't done that oh well sorry Ukraine! Trump did it. Something like that Remember these people are lame so this shows you some of that lame thinking they've got going on

CHAPTER 15 / 51 Discussion

Robert Hur Hearing, Joe Biden Book Deal Motive

During a congressional hearing, Special Counsel Robert Hur was questioned about President Joe Biden's retention of classified documents. The discussion focuses on Biden's alleged motive: an $8 million book advance from Flatiron Press. Evidence suggests Biden shared classified notebooks with his ghostwriter while still serving as Vice President.

robert hur· joe biden· classified documents· ghostwriter· flatiron press

51:43 Well, the latest thing I've been kind of pulling down is the Trump's a dummy clip. What? He's a dummy? Oh no! A real big dummy Okay well let's play some First let me play one clip from the HER hearing Oh yes yeah HER Yeah this is HER as you are HER is uh... Yes it says they them They, them he her. So her this is the this was the I'm getting this clip out of the way because it's the main clip that got picked up on that why did why did any of this happen in the first place? What was Biden doing with all the classified documents and you know, they were Republicans were kind of grilling her and the Democrats are just complaining about Trump had nothing to do with this. Yes, here at the setup is that the special

52:41 investigator, was it an investigator or prosecutor? Special investigator. You had to go and check out Biden's documents same thing that Trump had done he comes back with a report and says yep you got a whole bunch of documents the guy is no good but he's an old man so I'm not gonna do anything about it am I categorizing that properly yeah this exactly right all right So, but let's listen to this is the kind of... This was the nut. It's like you say in journalism the nut of the hearing and it's worth playing because nobody's playing it and this is like the key issue right here her hearing book deal. Mr. Herr why'd do you do it? Why did Joe Biden your words willfully retained disclosed classified materials I mean he knew the law

53:31 It's been an office like 50 years, five decades in the United States Senate. Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee eight years as vice president you know he knew the rules because you said so on page 226 President Biden was deeply familiar with the measures taken to safeguard classified documents. So Joe Biden knew the rule rules, you know he knew the rules and Joe Biden told us he knew the rules So Mr. Herr, why did he break them? Congressman the conclusion as to exactly why the president did what he did is not one that we explicitly address in the report The report explains my decision to the Attorney General that no criminal charges were warranted in this manner I think you did tell us! I think you told us Mr. Herr Page 231 You said this

54:21 President Biden had strong motivations. That's a key word, we're getting the motive now. President Biden had strong motivations to ignore the proper procedures for safeguarding the classified information in his notebooks. Why did he have strong motivations? because, next word. Because he decided months before leaving office to write a book that was his motive He knew the rules you broke him cause he was writing a book and you further say Andy began meeting with the ghostwriter while he was still vice president there's the motive Mr. Herr, how much did President Biden get paid for his book? Off the top of my head I'm not sure if that information appears in the report Sure does there's a dollar amount in there It may be eight million dollars Joe Biden had 8 million reasons to break the rules took classified information and shared it with the guy who was writing the book That's why he knew the rules but broke them for $8 million in a book advance Oh that's interesting He gave it to the ghostwriter

55:24 Well, he gave the classified documents to the ghostwriter. I'm sure he paid a minimum wage Yeah that's what i'm saying He gave the classified documents to the ghost But the eight million dollar advance you know...I looked in this was like a book that sold nothing it was an eight million dollar advance from uh An imprint of Macmillan called Flatiron Press And these deals, all of a sudden you get $8 million as vice president. I'm not convinced that this isn't kind of a back-ended way of getting something after you did your job but you can't take a bribe so now you get $8 million after the fact. It's just obviously what was going on because this was not... This is a book about his death and his son Bo and just a bunch

56:19 self-flattery the book itself which came out in 2017. So I anyway that was the main, the main... The consent of the governed do not agree with this? Yeah! This is no good?! So meanwhile the Democrats are not talking about any of this stuff. They refuse to even cross-examine her, they end up with stuff like this This is her hearing Nadler here's Nadler asking about anything he's doing this One of the great memories of all time James Webb I don't remember in the names Don't remember the name Stop stop stop

CHAPTER 16 / 51 Discussion

Donald Trump Cognitive Gaffes, Jerry Nadler Supercut

Congressman Jerry Nadler presented a supercut of Donald Trump's verbal stumbles and memory lapses during a hearing to counter narratives about Joe Biden's age. The clips show Trump confusing names like Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi, and misidentifying world leaders. The hosts critique the "Congress Plus" television-style production of these political attacks.

donald trump· jerry nadler· cognitive decline· nikki haley· victor orban

56:59 I gotta set this up properly. So Nadler, he goes on a tirade and then he throws up on the screen... they have some audio-visual coordination i guess oh yeah like a super clip which you're gonna hear of Trump being a dummy it's Trump forgetting a name Trump fumbling now this is funny because this is to show that uh that trump is just as old and cut and is addled as dumb Biden Although if I can interrupt for a second, have you seen Biden's new shoes? No. I have not seen that Oh my god! He has got these huge platforms underneath like broad so that he can't tip over It is great Well the thing is this supercut which is probably about a minute long or a minute and half at most Is the best they could do on the heels And I don't know if you've see this but it just came out You cannot even bother to get clips from it

57:57 Two hours and 50 minutes of Biden gaffes. Yeah, yeah I said someone sent it to me and went no No, not gonna watch that It's just it's actually quite funny but it is right? Is this a feature-length film? Yeah I don't have time for this in my life So here we go one of the great memories of all time James Webb. I do remember her names Don't worry about the name. Victor Orban, did anyone ever hear of him? He's the leader of Turkey By the way they never report to the crowd on January 6th You know Nikki Haley is in charge of security Three years lady, ladies and lady How bout that Did you actually have a one-on-one with Comey then Not much not even that I remember I like mosquitoes We have languages coming into our country we have nobody who even speaks those languages They're truly foreign languages Nobody speaks them Saudi Arabia and Russia

58:49 Well, we'll be doing I have a really good memory your next wife was a woman by the name of Marla Maples right you were called What years you were married to Miss Maples? It's called like up here and it's called memory and it's called other things. So you don't remember saying you're one of the best? I don't remember that And Putin, has so little respect for Obama that he started to throw around the nuclear war tear You've heard that Nuclear We have to win in November or we are not going to have Pennsylvania They'll change their name I talked to Putin A lot.

59:40 We won an election that everyone said couldn't be won. I'm not cognitively, and you know what? When I am, you're gonna enjoy it! You're gonna be the first people...I know my people will say alright Trump, you did a good job get the hell out of here that's it That is a man who was incapable of avoiding criminal liability A man who is wholly unfit for office and a man who at the very least ought to think twice before accusing others of cognitive decline. Wow, no wonder this is you these guys are trying to do television show they should get their own streaming call it Congress Plus It would be great So this goes out this comes out and so I catched this clip This is a series of another short basically a minute or so

CHAPTER 17 / 51 Discussion

TikTok Commentary, Trump IQ and Southern Strategy

A viral TikTok video features a commentator claiming Donald Trump has a low IQ and appeals to "ignorant" voters using racist dog whistles. The hosts debunk the video's historical claims regarding Lee Atwater and the Southern Strategy, noting the timeline provided by the creator is factually incorrect regarding Watergate.

lee atwater· southern strategy· donald trump· iq· tiktok

1:00:27 TikTok some guy and I don't know who he is but he's one of those guys who's in the look at his face in the camera going on and on. And he goes off on a tirade about Trump being the stupidest guy in the history of the world, and I just thought it was worth clipping because it was funny. Let's listen to part of it you can stop me after 1 or 2 clips but this is Trump as a dummy one. The way we got into this situation is pretty simple to explain Basically, when Nixon was discovered having committed Watergate people thought the Republican Party was washed up. But a clever staffer in Nixon's White House came up with an idea for how to get more new Republican voters to replace all the people that were turned off by the corruption that had just been exposed and perhaps save the party

1:01:16 His name was Lee Atwater. And he said, I know where there's all kinds of disgruntled white people All you gotta do is appeal to them over their anger about the end of Jim Crow and about school desegregation and about the Civil Rights Act These are the words that you'll say to kind of trigger them We call these the racist dog whistles You will send a message to them that they are welcome in the Republican Party And starting in the mid 70s to the mid 80s, there was a massive change in voter registration from Democrat to Republican on the part of all these racists and lowlifes. And ignorant people

1:01:59 At the same time, Trump started to have political ambition. Good setup! Alright... Now a couple of things one this is a nonsense timeline yeah and I and it's this is a plague right now because people don't take history they don't do jack in school The Lee Atwater was called the Southern Strategy to get some of the disgruntled Democrat voters from the South, not necessarily for racist reasons but for other reasons too. get some of them into the Republican Party. It was called the Southern Strategy. Yes, it took place long before Watergate. It wasn't after Watergate to recover Republicans. It was before Watergate that's how Nixon got in in the first place and then had a landslide when he got reelected then Watergate came at the end of his term. This is nonsense. This is similar to the TikTok guy saying the Jews want to get rid of TikTok

1:02:59 This is how stupid it's become. They should want TikTok! Why would you wanna get rid of something that makes people dumber and more controllable? It's beautiful, and it's not the Chinese doing it So here we go with part two where we really get into the weeds. Now it turns out Trump has an IQ of about 73 he barely functions as an adult if it were not for the fact that his father gave him a lot of money, he wouldn't be able to function as an adult. Trump has less money now than he would have had if you just taken the money he got from his father and put in an index fund in the stock market and just let it sit

1:03:36 But he's gradually played around with it all these years and lost it in all his lawsuits and so forth. And his six bankruptcies, and uh... He has dissipated a fortune over his lifetime Now he's had the Russians for the last 20 year to bail him out but ordinary people cannot be as dumb as Trump and still function But Trump came out onto the public stage and started talking boldly like he wanted to do things politically and help the people of America. And he speaks like a third grader because that's what somebody with an IQ of 73 talks like, even if they're an adult. Linguists have analyzed his speech and they've made it plain. He speaks English at a third grade level.

1:04:17 This energized dumb people because for the first time they could understand a presidential candidate. And they said things like, oh he speaks his mind! He's the first guy that doesn't use a bunch of fancy words and confuse me! Now I finally understand what he is saying. Of course what he was saying was a lot of things they wanted to hear They were racist dog whistles So you had a beautiful alliance from their perspective of racists and stupid people The lower 12% of the IQ distribution corresponds perfectly to Trump's supporters. Now these people are so intelligent that there is actually a federal statute that prohibits their induction into military service. Okay, hold on a second... So this mirrors

CHAPTER 18 / 51 Discussion

Austin Political Climate, Leaving the Country Rhetoric

A personal anecdote describes the heightened political anxiety in Austin, Texas, where residents are reportedly discussing leaving the country if Donald Trump is re-elected. The hosts discuss the "spun out" nature of these voters and the effectiveness of media programming in riling up both high and low-intelligence demographics.

1:05:02 I went to get my hair done. As you know, 14 years ago this one woman in Austin has been doing my hair and I'm loyal to her and I don't mind once every six weeks driving to Austin to get some drive time And she is surrounded by Austin people And even though she lives in Taylor, Texas which is up north a bit and she says that her clients and her friends and everyone around her She said because you know we talked about spun-up. She says they're spun out They are saying out Yeah, oh yeah, but not spun up spun out it's fun out, and they're talking about leaving the country again

1:05:43 And she's like, oh my god really? Are we at this? Oh yeah. Talking about leaving the country and Trump will cause mayhem and I said well did you ask them if that happened the last time he was president? She says they can't even hear about it! They're mad and they're on Facebook and they're yelling at the television and it's worse than ever but this is what it comes down to in fact These are the dumb people. It has nothing to do with IQ points. This just... Well, ignorant is probably the word I'd use and in fact when this guy says stuff like linguists have looked into his speech and confirmed that he speaks at a third grade level Give me some examples. Fine document this for me. I don't see it Alright but okay fine now does this get any better because it's drawing on a bit Is he just gonna? Is this basically just my hairdresser's neighbors that we're gonna play here

1:06:43 He also, what was the other thing he had said? 12. Oh yeah! The lower twelve percentile of the public are match up the dummy... the big dummies yes match up with the people who aren't allowed to go into military service because you're too stupid I would rather play it out but before you continue there's a couple comments this is little different than that i think that this is an example again, the mistake that Hillary made. And I think other people... There's no issues here this is calling the voters and supporters of Trump out and insulting them This is not a strategy that would ever work in a million years it works just the opposite But its dude on TikTok John

1:07:35 This guy's got a lot of followers. And this got passed around quite a bit, but this is a lot longer I clipped this way back but you will listen to part three. So they actually passed the law You're not allowed to recruit and induct into military service The lowest 12% on the IQ range Wow whereas i'd say 90 percent of people in military are Trump supporters That that's really...this is really interesting But they're still allowed to vote and Trump energized them. He made dumb people think that they finally understood politics He made people strut around proud of themselves thinking that they had a grasp of the issues. Because they could tell on some level that Trump wasn't much smarter than they were, but there he was a big shot so he seemed like a champion for them Of course all these people forget that they aren't rich They didn't have a dad hand them the equivalent of 412 million dollars and They can't do the things that Trump does and they can't get away with the things Trump has gotten away with And even Trump himself is not going to get away with him indefinitely But... That's another thing

1:08:37 And she even said this, and I love her dearly. She says he has like 40-50 lawsuits! He can never be president So the programming is working. It's riling people up over here. Oh, it gets through to everybody. Oh yeah it does. The stage has been set and this is where we're at basically we have a fanatical core of low intelligence voters who are podcasters that are solidly behind Trump they will back him no matter what he does or says because They don't care what he does or says. They just know he's their guy, they understand him, they like him He talks to them in a way that they can comprehend and they are fanatical in their support of him He has given them what they see as dignity and strength

1:09:22 And then at the other end of the spectrum are smart people from all walks of life. I actually used to be a Republican myself, I'm ashamed to admit it now but... I know i'm not alone. Millions of people who make sure that they turn out to vote against Trump used to be actual Republicans Now couple things and then there's the last clip and you can move on But this kind of thing where I used to be a Republican And now I'm ashamed to admit it. I used to be a Democrat, and I am not ashamed to admit it! I used to be a Republican, and I am not ashamed to admit that's bullcrap you never...that is nothing you ever say. I can't believe they didn't replace Rush Limbaugh with you. What a misser. They really missed out on that. I don't know if that was an insult or why are making it? All of the sudden I thought you could go on for hours about this

1:10:21 No, I can't. I can go on for as long as i'm going on which is about five minutes ten minutes We'll play Trump has it done before then? I do have the new an ad I know you see if you've seen the ad The anti-trump add no of ex Republican voters. No, no, no Oh man your your do you ever over do you have a clip? I do, but let's finish this first with Trump's a dummy for. Because the Republican Party is now nothing but a loony bin of the very low intelligence and there's just no way that you can be associated with them at all so now it's going to be some range of conservative to liberal Democrats again except that it'll mean something different than used to mean those Democrats won't be conservative because they're

1:11:08 racist garbage people from the south, they'll be conservative because they have some other philosophy about the role of the market or private enterprise or something like that. in the economy. At any rate, this is the problem we have. It's basically now just the very low intelligence versus the high intelligence and the thing is going to be decided by undecided people who don't pay attention. People in the middle that don't pay attention to politics no matter whether politicians are smart or dumb They just show up on election day and try to do their best. Those are the people you have to reach, You have to get them interested, you have to explain what's going on they have to be told Trump is a moron and he wants to be dictator And he has got million morons behind him that want him to be a dictator We cannot let that happen Only a million morons? Well that not gonna win in elections A million morons there is a show title You need more than a million morons But you need more then a million morons So meanwhile

Anti-Trump Campaign Ads, Former Republican Voters

A new series of campaign advertisements features individuals claiming to be former Trump voters who will not support him in 2024. The ads cite Trump's 91 felony indictments, his handling of classified documents, and his rhetoric regarding NATO and the January 6th Capitol riot as primary reasons for their defection.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Vice Presidential Shortlist

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is reportedly considering Aaron Rodgers and Jesse Ventura as potential running mates. The hosts discuss the betting odds for various candidates and the significance of Kennedy's upcoming announcement in Oakland. Kennedy's appeal to "Bitcoin" voters and older demographics is also noted.

rfk jr· aaron rodgers· jesse ventura· bitcoin· oakland

1:13:47 I was surprised, you know like nah he screwed it up. He can't do any good and this is hardcore Fredericksburg Texas and you know what they're all talking about Bobby the K Bitcoin Bobby Bitcoin, but that's my new name Yeah They're saying You know we think he might be a good alternatives a lot of people on the left in the right talking about him And you know, I gotta tell ya He's ramping up and he has something to be in the news. Robert F Kennedy Jr., who is running for president as an independent candidate, has revealed his potential running mates. You might recognize them New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura top

1:14:32 the list. Both men share Kennedy's affinity for embracing some debunked claims Rogers like Kennedy has spoken misleadingly about the harmful effects of vaccines while Ventura has peddled conspiracy theories about the 9-11 attacks so Bitcoin Bobby is playing this up on the 28th I believe he will announce his vice presidential candidate, I have the odds! I have the odds from the bookmakers. By the way he is going to be making that announcement in Oakland Oh, and nobody can figure out why. Hmm well that's not where Rogers played No he played at Cal Berkeley yeah he did kinda

1:15:12 And you know, and there's reasons people you know they I think people have still have a bit of a Kennedy vibe because all this. I'm talking these are older people so I'd say five years older than I am average some a little bit older some my age. So the people in the smoke shop that you were at? In the vape shop. The vape shop was it 60s? No, Kathy and Jerry they're 70 They're 70 and they've lost their mojo for Trump? Yeah, yeah. They're talking Bobby. But you know so are some of the ranchers and they like that he's a Christian they liked it overcame drugs You know they like what he's saying about Bitcoin Of course but here are the odds for vice presidential candidate running mate for Bitcoin Bobby we have one-to-one odds for Aaron Rodgers

1:16:05 Bull. Also follower, Jesse Funtura 2-1 adds then we go with 14 to 1 Mary Ann Williamson so this is where I think the bookies are off their rocker. That's for sure 25 to one for Andrew Yang followed with 33 to one magic number for Kanye West And then it just gets nuts. I mean we've got Matthew McConaughey, Tulsi Gabbard, Jerome Corsi, Jessica Biel 75 to 1 odds Rob Schneider... James Cabile? The actor? No, Jessica Biel

Katie Britt, Alabama Senate Career

Senator Katie Britt of Alabama is analyzed following her response to the State of the Union. A "boots on the ground" report suggests Britt was handpicked by former Senator Richard Shelby and is deeply tied to the military-industrial complex in North Alabama. The hosts conclude she is unlikely to leave her Senate seat for a vice-presidential nomination.

katie britt· richard shelby· alabama· military-industrial complex· vice president

1:16:42 Oh, Jessica Biel. That's a good one! Rob Schneider 100 to 1 Rand Paul he is at the bottom of the list 125 to 1 Alex Jones 150 to 1 Alicia Silverstone Now they're just making stuff up I did get a boots on the ground report about your girl who you were so enamored by oh she's young she looks great Katie Britt Which also, in the vape shop. That was horrible! Was she barefoot? So boots on the ground from my man there in Alabama She was handpicked by Richard Shelby, she was his long time aide And he of course was Alabama Senator from 1986 to 2022

1:17:33 and now she's the senator, so she was handpicked. He was the head of the Senate Appropriations Committee, so he is one of the most powerful senators directing millions to the military-industrial complex through North Alabama—NASA Air Force, military aerospace companies—she's married to a former University of Alabama offensive lineman from Saban's national championship team which in Alabama is like being married to the Pope We elect people here based on military industrial complex money, football and abortion. She takes every box zero chance she ever leaves the Senate for the executive branch. She will make millions of dollars as a senate lifer I think there's something to that so she's not going to be any vice presidential nominee for Trump and then something very interesting crossed my desk one of our producers

Red Book Prediction, Joe Biden Presidency Dream

A "Red Book" entry from May 2013 is revisited, in which a host described a vivid dream of Joe Biden becoming president and performing poorly. The hosts present this as a successful long-term prediction of the current political climate, recorded over a decade prior to the events.

Vaping Habits, Quitting Smoking Anecdote

A host discusses their 16-month journey of quitting tobacco and marijuana by using organic vape juice with low nicotine. The conversation touches on the psychological process of the habit and the return of vivid dreams after ceasing heavy marijuana use.

1:20:59 But no, I quit cold turkey and have not smoked in 16 months now.

There it is I left it open for ya. I left wide open for ya. No so I stopped and and I don't believe that vaping is harmful to you It's organic juice. It's not made in China.

TikTok Teachers, Anti-Sad Pills and Telemedicine

A trend on TikTok features young teachers discussing their reliance on "anti-sad pills" (antidepressants) to cope with the stress of the profession. The hosts criticize the ease of obtaining these medications through telemedicine services provided by companies like Amazon and Mark Cuban's pharmacy.

1:22:28 So interesting. Okay, well just checking yeah now I'm looking out for you now Thank you appreciate it. I was looking out for your condemning you for your you can't you can't condemn me Condemning you good go ahead try hey speaking of tick-tock Oh man, I mean this came across my uh My algo told me to be very worried about this I'd not heard this this term but apparently a lot of teachers are Certainly those who are of the female persuasion and on TikTok, they're on drugs. Why does every teacher have to take anti-sad pills? Real talk! During my student teaching which was three years ago now I started taking anti sad pills for the very very first time Have you ever heard this term anti sad pills

1:23:17 This is the first time I've heard anti-sad pill. Yeah, yeah well this is... Well this talking at a third grade level she must be a third grade teacher Because mentally it was so much my anxiety could not take it I had to wake up at like 6am That's hard guys okay let's just call what it is Teach all day then I have like practice and I still have school meetings blah blah blah So I had, I started it. Then I weaned myself off in the summer because I felt better. And then as soon as the first year of teaching started oh my god! I needed those babies stronger than ever. I cried literally most days of my first year of teaching It was terrible

1:23:56 I was gas lit all day. I didn't know what to do, the kids taught me basically they were like okay yep this is what we're doing today nothing... Okay anyways started taking them last year then panic attacks awful! I was not doing well because i didn't fully commit to leaving teaching yet so.. This is what you get when you allow people like Mark Cuban and Amazon to do telemedicine. People, you know... You can get Prozac for nine bucks a three-month supply as a new time customer of Amazon Did you know that? No I did not know that! It seems like a good deal. Yes it's great deal but it's not good This is just not what we want for our... this is just not good

Chewing Gum, Obesity Control and GLP-1

A 2015 study from the National Library of Medicine suggests that chewing sugarless gum can increase satiety and affect GLP-1 concentrations, potentially serving as a low-cost alternative to weight-loss drugs like Ozempic. The hosts jokingly propose a "Chew World Order" brand of gum to capitalize on these health benefits.

chewing gum· ozempic· glp-1· obesity· chlorettes

1:24:59 So, well maybe the Republicans are morons. The lefties they're druggies man! They're druggies...the teachers are all drugged out This woman needs to go to be- Well you know once they open all these mental health institutes it might help so there's a report that has been resurfaced from 2015 which is very interesting and I think the Daily Mail had the headline Chewing gum for 30 minutes has similar appetite curbing effects to Ozempic. And so I go and it's a... Let me see, where is this report? It's an old report 2015 from the National Library of Medicine PubMed so that's official The effect of gum chewing on blood GLP-1 concentration in healthy non obese men So it's not obese man

1:26:01 But it says, among healthy men in a fasting state chewing sugarless gum can increase satiety with no effect on blood glucose and can decrease the decline of GLP-1 concentration. Chewing gum has no significant effect on blood insulin and GIP concentration. The present study suggests that chewing sugarless gum may be an economical and effective method to help obesity patients control their energy intake, and decrease weight with no changes in calorie intake Although there are different opinions about the benefit of chewing gum or our study showed positive results It is worth conducting a large-scale clinical research study to verify the effectiveness of this method

1:26:52 And I thought to myself, exit strategy! No agenda. Death-bound gum. We could get a snappy jingle... we gotta have a better name obviously but we could sell gum that helps you lose weight as effectively as Ozempic. It's safe and effective I mean this is, this could be a bonanza for us. Whatever happened to gum chewing? You know they've backed off and for example when i was a kid they used to promote dentine gum because it would have some sort of stickiness so that would clean your teeth as you chewed. Brush your breath with dentine

1:27:42 And then there was the chloro-something gum, it was a green gum that had chlorophyll in it. It kept you from having bad breath and that was very popular. Remember that gum? The green gum? Hold on second... Chew World Order is suggested as a brand name I like that. Chew World Order So does anyone in the room remember the Chloro-Something Gum That was this green stuff that was pleasant And people were chewing gum all the time. We could have mac and cheese flavor! It's endless possibilities, John. Trident. Well I'm just wondering... My point was that you're completely ignoring because you're vaped up. Trident? I'm telling you the name of the gum, trident No it was not trident. Trident is a latter, it came later. Trident is a gum you can get today This other gum, Chloro-something which was green pez like gum

1:28:40 Was is no longer available. I haven't seen it for years Zytol xylitol, you know xylotol is a sugar Substitute right? Right. I don't remember what the one you're talking about. Well, I would think somebody in our rats Chlorettes there you go. Somebody's got a clue yeah Thank that person in the troll room. That person is a non 75605 Web drawer you were too lazy to change your anon But seriously, I mean I don't want to pass up this this dynamite opportunity for us

1:29:25 Yeah, I think going into the chewing gum business is just we're chewing away anyways. We chat yeah But it could help you lose weight Yeah well i think people should get back to nobody chews gum anymore why is that they probably Didn't want us to chew it because they knew they were coming out with ozempic. Oh, now you're talking about now your second half of shows there I mean That's a good one yeah They got rid of it because if its health benefits we can have that I like true world order and now available in mac and cheese flavor

Eli Lilly, Amazon Pharmacy Zepbound Partnership

Pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly has partnered with Amazon Pharmacy to provide home delivery of its weight-loss drug Zepbound. The "LillyDirect" program aims to simplify access to the medication, which the hosts view as a sign of the increasingly commercialized and automated medical system.

Joe Biden, Illegal vs. Undocumented Terminology Controversy

President Joe Biden expressed regret during an MSNBC interview for using the word "illegal" to describe the suspect in the Laken Riley murder case, preferring the term "undocumented." The hosts analyze the backlash from both the political right and some media commentators who view the walk-back as a sign of weakness and catering to activists.

joe biden· laken riley· msnbc· jonathan capehart· immigration

1:31:49 So where do you want to go here? I've got... Well, I wanted to finish up. But I have a couple more two more things on Biden because he said a big boo-boo He did? Yeah he did. That's shocking! He said illegal, you know he said illegal about the... Oh yeah that was a big that they carried over the weekend we covered that on Sunday. MSNBC Jonathan Capehart your boy Mr President I shouldn't have said that your guy mr president is great to see you again thank you for doing this So that was one hell of a speech you gave Thursday night. Oh, yeah! I want to touch on three specific areas there the first one being you know and notice the look of surprise on your face when you walked into the chamber and you saw Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene it was priceless you faint shock at seeing her but during your response to her heckling of you use the word illegal when talking about the man who allegedly killed Laken Riley undocumented person

1:32:46 I shouldn't have used the legal, it's undocumented. And look when i spoke about the difference between Trump and me one of the things that talked about on the border was his way he talks about vermin, the way he talks about these people polluting the bloods. I talked to him what I'm not going do, what I wont do. any of these people with disrespect. Look, they built the country! The reason our economy is growing we have to control the border and more orderly flow but I don't share it as you at all. So you regret using that word? Yes These people built our country in case you didn't know that

1:33:23 So Kay Park went out of his way to say you, so you. He's shaming him! Yes yeah because he wants Trump to win. He is shaming him on the spot saying you regrets using the word illegal we don't allow that here at The Washington Post where I work We can't say that it's newcomers what he wanted to say Here is a follow up And Brendan, we also heard President Biden saying and owning the fact that he made a mistake by using the word illegal. He owns it! Saying that he regrets using that term but already The Trump Camp responding to Kape Hart's Jonathan Capehart interview with President Biden saying quote That Biden is tone deaf for walking back his use of the word illegal Your thoughts about whether or not it made sense for president Biden to own up to what he said?

1:34:06 It might make sense given where the president is politically within his own party. I think that it was a huge mistake to walk that back right now, honestly. He just shows incredible weakness this let's understand the context here this is a person who killed an innocent 22 year old woman who was out for a jog. The President here just said the person was undocumented they weren't undocumented they actually been arrested several times we knew that you were in the country and had been arrested for other things This should have been a moment where he could have stood up to his own party and said, look I regret saying illegal. I should've said something worse about this person and I think this is going to be used against him significantly. I understand the politics on the left about language and immigration. I totally get it. And I understand why he did this but I thought that was actually a great moment in the State of Union race sort of reminded people why people in the middle elected him in the first place that he is sort of a middle-of-the road Democrat not owned by activists left

1:35:02 And I think it's really disappointing that he couldn't use stronger words for someone who just killed an innocent woman. Whoa! MSNBC, who knew? That's weird... Hey maybe we can get in on the climate change if we use like cricket flour and will say that this by chewing this gum you fight climate change AND obesity?! I don't want cricket powder in my gum. Think marketing man So we go back to these insults here. Did you see Nancy Mace on the Stepanopoulos show? I heard about it, no I only heard about it. She was shaming the rape victim! I have the clip and here's...I'm gonna preface with what you're gonna hear. Nancy Mace was a rape victim and

CHAPTER 28 / 51 Discussion

Nancy Mace, George Stephanopoulos Interview Clash

Congresswoman Nancy Mace confronted ABC's George Stephanopoulos after he questioned her support for Donald Trump in light of the E. Jean Carroll civil verdict. Mace, a rape survivor, accused Stephanopoulos of "shaming" her by using her past trauma to score political points. The hosts discuss the ethics of the interview and the distinction between civil and criminal liability.

nancy mace· george stephanopoulos· e. jean carroll· donald trump· rape

1:35:52 Stepanophilus brought her on the show for, I don't know why. I think to get her to not like Trump because Trump was found guilty in the civil court of sexual whatever he did that crazy hippie woman whose name is eluding me. Gene E. Carroll? Gene E. Carroll so... He's gonna bring her and she throws back at him that as far she's concerned He is shaming her. And at that point, because we should believe women... Now who was Nancy Mace again? Nancy Mace is that kind of she's a kind of the attractive Congresswoman has got this she's got that Shriver look She's got the big jaw Oh yeah sharp face Maria Shriver The sharp face yes okay

1:36:48 that woman that was married to Schwarzenegger. Now why was she even on Stephanopoulos? For this reason, so he could grill her and say well you're a victim of rape you know how can you support Trump! That was the basis yeah she called him out on it He wouldn't give in and I have the clip And it goes on forever...He never apologizes never acknowledges anything he just keeps grilling her This is the most... I think this should be the end of this guy.

1:37:29 Well, I will tell you. I was raped at the age of 16 and any rape victim will tell you that I've lived for 30 years with an incredible amount of shame over being raped. It didn't come forward because of that judgment and shame that I felt It's a shame that you will never feel, George. And I'm not going to sit here on your show and be asked a question meant to shame me about another potential rape victim. I'm not gonna do that. It's actually not about shaming you it's a question about Donald Trump. No, you are shaming me! You've endorsed Donald Trump for president. Right. Donald Trump has been found liable for rape by a jury

1:38:05 Donald Trump has been found liable for defaming the victim of that rape by a jury. It's been affirmed by a judge and we've repeated- A criminal court case number one, number two I live with shame and you're asking me a question about my political choices trying to shame me as a rape victim. And I find it disgusting, and quite frankly E. Jean Carroll's comments when she did get the judgment joking about what she was going to buy It doesn't...it makes it harder for women to come forward when they make a mockery out of rape When they joke about it Doesn't it make it harder for women to come forward when they have a candidate? It makes it harder when other women joke about it and she's joked about it. I find it offensive, and I also find it offensive that you're trying to shame me with this question. I'm not trying to shame you at all in fact- You are! I have dealt with this for 30 years.

1:39:01 Wow, okay I got it. This was a civil court decision and why did you fight? And by the way she joked about the judgment and what she was going to do with all that money and i find that offensive but as a rape victim who's been shamed for years now because of her rape You're trying to shame me again by asking me this political question. You've repeated that again and again As a woman I find it offensive. Wow! I had not seen that clip It was unbelievable. He just would not let up and he wouldn't apologize, it was very offensive to her and she kept saying so, saying get off the track I guess he had nothing else to talk about! Yeah...it was very strange to watch. I saw several women respond to it online saying you know Stephanopoulos man you're out of control but this is all part of branding Trump as a rapist even though the jury did not say that

Boeing Quality Control, Whistleblower John Barnett Death

Boeing whistleblower John Barnett was found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in South Carolina during a period of legal depositions against the company. Simultaneously, FAA audits revealed that Boeing failed 33 of 89 quality control tests. The hosts discuss the suspicious timing of Barnett's death and the broader industrial warfare between Boeing and Airbus.

boeing· john barnett· faa· spirit aerosystems· whistleblower

1:43:41 And it sure seems like Boeing's on the losing side right now. New concerns about quality control at Boeing, The New York Times reports the company has failed 33 of the 89 audits the FAA conducted after a door panel blew off in mid-flight on this Alaska Airlines plane in January. Investigators later found four bolts were missing following the incident. The FAA took immediate action to to increase its oversight activities and we will continue to put safety first. The FAA also conducted 13 audits of Boeing supplier Spirit Aero Systems, seven reportedly resulted in a failing grade the Times-Aid documents show the FAA observed mechanics at Spirit using a hotel key card to check a door seal and spirit mechanics

1:44:26 apply Dawn soap to a door seal as lubricant. Boeing responding overnight saying, we continue to implement immediate changes and develop a comprehensive action plan to strengthen safety and quality with transparency at every turn. Spirit says they'll address the issue and continue efforts to improve safety with the goal of zero defects And safety officials around the world are looking into the terrifying incident yesterday where 50 passengers were injured on a Boeing 787 Dreamliner over Australia. The airline saying the plane experienced a strong shake and blames a technical event for the dramatic loss of altitude Meanwhile, a Boeing whistleblower was found dead Friday after an apparent suicide The body of 62 year old John Barnett A long time Boeing employee

1:45:10 and quality manager was found in Charleston, South Carolina where he was being questioned in a case against Boeing. Barnett raised concerns about production standards telling the BBC in 2019 that workers deliberately used faulty parts. Boeing denied his claims." Well is that a setup or what? Yeah, this is interesting. This is getting more interesting by the minute Alright let me play the jingle And now it's time for 3x3 Woohoo! Experiment 5JCD What are we doing? Comparing stories from ABC CBS and NBC The never-ending story of the day, the big news! John takes a look at all the different headline news stories from the Big Three networks and rolls them out in 3x3 so we can compare and see if they get the news from the same place. If there's a narrative or what is going on in your News Media Controlled World

1:46:04 Let's start with ABC. Tonight a Boeing whistleblower now dead from an apparent suicide only days after his lawyer says he'd been deposed John Barnett worked for Boeing for 32 years and was involved in a lawsuit alleging serious safety concerns with the 787 Dreamliner and retaliation from the company His lawyers say Barnett was in very good spirits, and we didn't see any indication He would take his own life but Police in South Carolina say he died Saturday from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. His body found inside a car in a hotel parking lot. In January, just weeks after a door plug flew off an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max 9 Barnett spoke with TMZ Live. What we're seeing with the door plug blowout is

1:46:53 What I've seen with the rest of their plane, as far as jobs not being completed properly. Inspection steps being removed issues been ignored since that incident a six week FAA review of the Boeing production line has raised new concerns The New York Times reporting Boeing failed 33 of 89 audits and Boeing supplier Spirit Aero Systems which builds the 737 MAX fuselage, failed more than half of its 13 audits. As difficult and as painful these inspections are for Boeing they will help them get back to basics to be able to begin to earn the trust of the FAA and the flying public

1:47:34 David Boeing says they are saddened by John Barnett's passing but his attorneys say they're shocked. They're calling for a full police investigation into his death Now just as an aside, I mean let's just say that this is This is a corporate battle. I mean, and you know, and Airbus industries in Boeing don't just make passenger jets they make a lot of other stuff war stuff mainly so that's not to be underestimated especially when a lot of big contracts are coming up for China You know, to make Boeing look extra bad By killing some dude, and by the way adding to hot tubs and small aircraft eating lunch in your pickup truck is now a bad idea if you're in a court case. I mean what's it to them though? Them to kill a guy right in the middle of your eating bite and say you know I think I'm gonna shoot myself right here at the middle this meal yeah I wouldn't put it past them

CHAPTER 31 / 51 Discussion

LATAM Boeing 787 Incident, Software Reboot Requirements

A LATAM Airlines Boeing 787 experienced a sudden mid-air drop, which was linked to a known technical issue requiring the flight control computers to be reset every 22 days to prevent a "memory leak" or system freeze. The hosts compare this critical aviation maintenance requirement to "rebooting a router" and criticize the modern state of coding.

latam airlines· boeing 787· faa· software bug· reboot

1:48:32 This is in the world of big business, this is nothing. There's billions of dollars involved and big bonuses. Hundreds of billions yeah and big bonuses for the executives that are making way too much money It was a meal to die for I tell you it was so good sandwich Sorry. Well ABC, so ABC sets it up so they start with the suicide as the lead and then they move on to the details and I thought that was a very interesting structure but let's see what NBC has. The 33 is annoying there is too much... The 33 is annoying? So NBC here we go! The focus for investigators that terrifying nosedive off New Zealand that injured dozens passengers say the LATAM pilot claimed he suddenly lost control of the Boeing 787 when the flight data computers went dark

1:49:18 In 2016, the FAA issued an airworthiness directive for the 787 warning that if the flight control computers are not reset every 22 days they could shut themselves down which could result in flight controls that don't respond and a temporary loss of controllability. Meanwhile two months since that midair MAX 9 emergency sources close to the investigation say Boeing has failed 33 of 89 FAA audits The FAA confirming it identified non-compliance issues in Boeing's manufacturing process control, parts handling and storage and product control. In an email Boeing's chief of commercial planes today called on every employee to precisely follow every step of our manufacturing procedures and processes

1:50:05 While in South Carolina, a coroner says former Boeing whistleblower John Barnett took his own life before his upcoming trial against the company. In 2019 Barnett told NBC News Boeing was putting profits ahead of safety from day one it's just all been about scheduling hurry up and just get it done push your planes out. In a statement Boeing says we are saddened by Mr. Barnetts passing and our thoughts are with his family and friends Under intense scrutiny, the company today called on every employee to be on the lookout for safety or quality issues and speak up. I'm impressed by this report

1:50:42 I, and I've been obviously looking at this Lantem airliner 777 issue. Was it a 787 or 777? It doesn't matter. It was an 87. Nothing more scary in a fly-by-wire type situation where you barely have any steam gauges anymore if all of your instrumentation goes out And let's just say that you're, you know that means autopilot because there is clearly an autopilot mode at that moment. If everything shuts off your servos all that and the plane is out of trim I mean you could immediately see that drop but then it's a little suspicious like oh! It went off and came back on? These things take time to boot up its at least 20-30 seconds But then I hear...and this was new

1:51:33 that you've got to jiggle the handle every 21 days? What is this?! Reminds me of, you know memory whatever they... memory leaks and all these things on regular PCs where you... Hey! We're rebooting the router if you remember we were doing that a lot in this show. I got buffer bloat You gotta reboot the router. Oh, and it works fine now! What was going on? That it wasn't working... you know the routers going every day and then all of a sudden you got to reboot... And you always said that. Reboot the router! Yeah, and sometimes... Reboot the router why?! Sometimes it helped there was buffer bloat

1:52:11 No, it was helping every time. Yeah! Buffer bloat... But this- Do you know that's what it was? Yeah thats what we called it, buffer bloat. That's what we called it and we don't know what it was. We weren't flying a 787 okay the show is important but not that important So, you know it clearly this is the kind of coding we have nowadays. Learn to code everything's JavaScript. It's not even coding! It's some kid who builds a Minecraft. Oh I have a clip about that in a moment actually I have a clip for ya but before we do that let's listen to CBS' version of the same report and they usually have the most reliable versions

CHAPTER 32 / 51 Discussion

FAA Audit Details, Dawn Soap and Fire Ants

Details from the FAA audit of Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems revealed mechanics using hotel key cards and Dawn dish soap as makeshift tools and lubricants. This leads to a host discussion on the various uses of Dawn soap in the Texas Hill Country, including as a weed killer and a method for zapping fire ants and red wasps.

faa· boeing· dawn dish soap· fire ants· hill country

1:52:53 After the dramatic mid-air blowout of a door panel in January, the FAA launched an audit of Boeing's 737 production process. Boeing failed 33 out of 89 sections including one dealing with the same type of door panel The FAA also found 97 incidents of alleged noncompliance The most common was failing to follow Boeings own standards and practices The audit comes as Boeing admitted to lawmakers last week it cannot find paperwork documenting repairs performed on that Alaska Airlines door panel, saying it is likely that it was never created. The NTSB investigation indicates the bolts holding that door in place were not reinstalled. FAA also looked at supplier Spirit AeroSystems which makes the body of the 737 MAX

1:53:40 The company failed 7 of 13 sections of that audit. Inspectors flagged workers using a hotel key card to check a door seal and Dawn dish soap as a lubricant. Kent. Well, Boeing is declining to comment on this DOJ investigation. But if investigators were to find wrongdoing, Boeing could potentially face criminal charges and they're already facing a number of lawsuits from that Alaska Airlines incident one seeking $1 billion Nora. Chris I also want to ask you about this Boeing whistleblower that was found dead in his car what do we know about that? Yeah John Barnett was set to sit for a deposition in a defamation case he had brought against Boeing when he was found

1:54:19 dead in his truck. The coroner in South Carolina says it appears to be due to a self-inflicted gunshot wound, and his attorneys are calling on the local police to fully investigate what happened, Nora. Oh yeah I'd forgotten the Dawn dish soap that is beautiful by the way Dawn dish soap is used around Hill Country for a number of things It's very, it's a yeah I can see that. We... It is very amazing surfactant. It is an amazing product we use if you mix it with distilled white vinegar and some what's the stuff you throw in the bathtub? The salt, the... Epsom salts. Epsom salt yeah If you mix that it is a fantastic weed killer so you don't get me know you don't get your glyphosate leaking into the ground oh everyone uses here

1:55:10 And a dawn dish soap just by itself diluted with a little bit of white vinegar, distilled white vinegar. You pour that into the red ant hill? Kills them! Which is very good way to do it. Is there ever red ant hill? Oh my god we have red ants around here in the summer yeah and you do not repeat do not want to step on a red ant hill I wouldn't think so but aren't they high up in the air? Fire ants I'm sorry not red ants fire ants That's a different ant. Yes, I'm sorry the fire ant I said red ant fire Don't they make big hills you can pretty hard to step on one now? I mean if if you're not looking at me They're everywhere and you could use and you could be used you could be standing in one and all of a sudden

1:55:56 Uh oh, and if they're climbing up your ankle they'll bite you right away. And those things... That's why they call it fire ants? They scar! I mean, I have scarring on my hand from one time. I put my...I had a cocktail glass and I put it down on the ground and we're chatting away. And I hadn't seen that all these fire ants had walked up onto my glass because there was sugary stuff in it. I pick it up and also they are on my hands and then I brush them off and they'd already beat me I still have scars from the fire ant bites. Wow yeah anyway so Dawn soap another thing if you've got red wasps you can just put it into a spray bottle and you could put it on stream and you can just sit there and just zap them

1:56:45 From a distance, don't have to get up. You have red wasps? Yes What's the red wasp you do not want to mess with the red wasp? Sounds like your living in Australia Hey man it's the hill country baby. Don't mess around anyway Yeah I think this is uh...I think this is industrial warfare and they're just going now they're just hitting Boeing as hard as they can There's gotta be, I mean there are big contracts at play here. And you know they've got hidden camera footage of Boeing employees saying, I wouldn't fly on those planes! No we do drugs We do coke We go in the parking lot and smoke some weed at lunch Have you seen those? Oh yeah, oh yeah... And I saw a video of this John Barnett He did not look like a guy ready to kill himself

CHAPTER 33 / 51 Discussion

Boeing vs. Airbus, Military Contracts and Pilot Training

The hosts discuss the competitive landscape of the aviation industry, noting that while Boeing struggles with passenger jet safety, its primary focus remains lucrative military contracts. They mention reports of pilots specifically training for Airbus aircraft due to concerns over Boeing's current manufacturing standards and software-heavy "fly-by-wire" systems.

boeing· airbus· military contracts· pilot training· aviation industry

1:57:46 I mean, he seems pretty together. If you were the Eurobus people... The Airbus Eurobus? Yeah! The Eurobus guys. Wouldn't it be cool that you'd be the guys to send a hitman out and make Boyd look even worse? Yes, it's great! At first I was thinking, you know could be really stressful or lawsuit especially if you're fighting a big corporation but then I saw the guy like and I saw him talk like nah no This guy was killed. It's horrible, but it's on man! They're out to ruin Boeing and Boeing is not doing itself any favors. What did Boeing do to them recently that caused this war? Well they have more military... Do we think of anything? I can only think of military contracts. It's all military stuff. It's just all military. That's all they care about. Where does Boeing really make its money?

1:58:45 in passenger aircraft. That's a big part of it, but that's not all I mean don't they make jets too? They must provide something for jets. They make a lot of military gear yeah Yeah and i still think that the bulk of their cash is made with the big jets well It's gonna end because 77 87 We know from our um from our navy guys who are retiring like I'm training for Airbus how am I going to train for Boeing I'm training for Airbuses, which is crazy because they're plastic airplanes. So's the 87. Yeah well there you go but the 87 reboots!

1:59:27 Reboots out of the blue by the way only one report had that That was a detail I had not heard that that was very interesting that you have to do You have to reset it if two reboot it every 21 days come on. That's that's It's like restarting the router. It's dumb. I wonder what they don't have Garmin Do they know how to garment let me see seven eight seven avionics? Let me see, I'm sure you can get different packages But yeah, you probably ordered various packages Rockwell Collins Hmm Rockwell Collins. Yeah Yeah, rock was saying the Rockwell Collins that looks like they all have Rockwell Collins Who owned some what it must be owned by some bigger company? But that's so its own military guys Rockwell owns it I think Rockwell is a publicly traded big company That means that's not cool

CHAPTER 34 / 51 Discussion

AI Training in Kenya, Rockwell Collins Avionics

A report highlights the use of low-wage workers in Nairobi, Kenya, to filter toxic content for OpenAI's training data. The discussion shifts to the globalization of tech labor, including Kenyan children learning to code for self-driving cars. The hosts also clarify that Rockwell Collins is now a subsidiary of RTX Corporation (formerly Raytheon).

kenya· nairobi· open ai· rockwell collins· raytheon

2:00:22 And you can get Collins Aviation gear in your GA aircraft. This is not good, this is not good at all. Anyway I wanted to talk for a second about programmers because there was... and stand by everybody get ready to leave us it's an Africa report oh no! But I've slyly combined Africa with an artificial intelligence report. AI tools like chatGBT work almost like magic, but there's no quick trick for building them. Thousands of workers have spent months filtering toxic content out of the data used to train openAI.

2:01:00 After reviewing scenes of child abuse and bestiality, he's been left traumatized. It is difficult work and AI subcontractor employees are paid less than 1 euro an hour. Richard ended up quitting. Richard and three other moderators decided it was time for change They filed a petition in Parliament with the help of this lawyer She believes they must act fast as a growing number of companies set up in Nairobi They're attracted by Kenyan's fluency in English and their quality education In this school, children are learning how to code

2:01:38 Today's class is on self-driving cars. A growing number of Kenyan children are learning digital skills The young company Digifunze now offers this course in 10 different schools Innovators that hope to climb the ladder and become the brains behind the technologies of tomorrow Not just the cogs in an American machine That's right! So you thought you were going to lose your job to AI? Uh uh, You're losing your job to a Nigerian Some Nigerian school kid is programming your Rockwell Collins avionics. But now I should mention this, Rockwell Collins just so we know so don't have to get anybody's letters the company was acquired by United Technologies in 2018 and now operates as part of Collins Aerospace a subsidiary of the RTX Corporation formerly Raytheon

CHAPTER 35 / 51 Discussion

Defiance Act, AI Deepfakes and Digital ID

Congress is considering the Defiance Act, a bipartisan bill aimed at holding individuals accountable for creating non-consensual sexually explicit AI deepfakes. The hosts argue that such legislation is a "Trojan horse" intended to eventually mandate digital IDs for all internet users to access social media accounts.

defiance act· deepfakes· ai· digital id· dick durbin

2:02:38 It all boils down to Raytheon. Yeah, it always does. Meanwhile speaking of AI we have a new bill called the Defiance Act This may be part of the swift op setup. I know we're all a little just distraught about the situation and we don't know how to handle it Stevie Heider, a sophomore at Richmond Burton High School found out Tuesday there were disturbing photos of her circulating. I felt really violated and it was just really gross to see this was The picture A fellow student is accused of altering using AI technology using her face but swapping a nude body. A lot of them were just like

2:03:19 photos with friends from like birthday party outings. There was a lot of homecoming and prom." In this context, there is definitely a need for quick actions the potential for harm is In the world of AI, there are video and photo swapping apps that have come under fire where a user can even crop someone's face into an adult video creating pornographic images of people without their consent. At the federal level Congress is currently considering legislation called The Defiance Act that would better regulate the AI world and deep fakes. And this is really disturbing to their

2:03:55 entire careers moving forward in life, college applications they're worried about. They're worried about what if they do something professionally in the future and these images surface that's really scary for them." It can take a psychological toll on victims since the technology is so new the law isn't clear-cut If a fake body attached to a minors photo is considered illegal me it falls right into child pornography and that's exactly in my opinion what it is. I think its creating, I think its distributing it, I think that should be you know charged accordingly in my opinion. So the Defiance Act is an act from Durbin Graham Klobuchar Hawley and uh

2:04:42 An act to hold accountable those responsible for the proliferation of non-consensual sexually explicit deepfake images and videos. How about this? Uh, how about you tell your kids not to put stuff online? How about that? You know how about some education here just don't post stuff! You can't legislate this Well it all will lead to uh identification, that's what has to be in these bills. Ah! Well this is what I keep telling you but that is the end game... ...is always going to be ID to have an account. Yeah. Huh? You see- It's gonna take decades there are still too many workarounds No there are workarounds?! I didn't say it would work This is why don't understand why we're not on the same page with this

2:05:43 Just because it doesn't work, doesn't mean that we won't have the legislation. They love to have everybody have an ID. E-identify all this stuff they want it! They want it! They love it yes we need more of that I don't understand why you keep saying there's workarounds Of course there is workarounds Well what do I keep saying? You don't understand why I'm saying it No I don't because I'm not looking for a fix I'm looking for the government to do something evil They just want to have us all... But why can't I say that there's workarounds? It offends you so much. Because you yourself was the guy, You were doing a big expose A big write-up about digital ID and then it just went away And you keep saying there are work arounds! I thought that you were writing a book about it What?! Were not writing a book about it? Another vivid dream Put in the redbook It was very vivid man It was super vivid

Change Healthcare Cyberattack, Black Cat Ransomware

Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, was targeted by the Black Cat ransomware gang, resulting in a $22 million payment and massive disruptions to the U.S. healthcare billing system. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has launched an investigation into the breach, which affected roughly one-third of all U.S. patient records.

change healthcare· black cat· ransomware· unitedhealth group· hhs

2:06:49 The healthcare industry is still struggling to overcome a February cyber attack that hit the IT company Change Healthcare. The group behind the attack is part of a professionalized ecosystem that profits off companies' digital security failings. NPR's Jenna McLaughlin reports. On Wednesday, February 21st, a relatively unknown IT company called Change Healthcare announced it was the victim of a cyberattack. The group of hackers behind it who go by the name Black Cat demanded a ransom of $22 million to return the company's data

2:07:33 The hack was devastating. While Change Healthcare isn't a household name, it plays a central role in verifying and processing payments between insurance companies and providers. Right now according to a source with knowledge of the situation the company is still struggling to bring basic functionalities back online. Publicly change healthcare has said it hopes to start restoring those services next week. The response is ongoing but the breach provides a window into how these criminal ransomware gangs operate who is this breathy lady lose some NPR reporter and she likes it's me like I find the reporting very poor. I mean there we have no idea how much I mean is it still locked up to a million said right in that part oh yeah okay but they didn't say was Bitcoin she missed all these opportunities who cares they 22 millions 22 millions well why don't they pay rubles they should just pay it get rid of it dude fix it did if you listen to part two of the clip

2:08:30 Ram Elbowim, the CEO of cybersecurity company Cygnia has tracked Black Hat for years. Here's how he describes them. What makes them I would say unique is the viciousness if we can call it off the attacks. Elbowim says Black Hat sells its malicious code to affiliates taking a cut of the profits They even provide human resources, a platform to negotiate payments with victims and a public leak site. The criminal ecosystem of ransomware continues to thrive. That's partially because these groups often live outside the reach of U.S law enforcement. A senior administration official tells NPR that many of these hackers operate with impunity somewhere inside Russia

2:09:11 Blackhead emerged out of the ashes of another group that might be familiar, called Darkside. In May 2021 that group attacked Colonial Pipeline leaving half the eastern seaboard without fuel for days At that time ransomware groups were at least publicly hesitant to target critical infrastructure but all that seems to have changed in recent years Here's how Steve Kagle, the CEO of the health care cybersecurity company Clearwater described this shift in a briefing for the healthcare industry in early March. The other thing I'll mention about Black Cat is this is an organization that the FBI was able to, in some respects enforce seizure of their sites they reemerged

2:09:50 And we reported a couple of months ago they removed all restrictions against hospitals and practically speaking, encouraged their affiliates to go after hospitals and raise their commission rate to 90 percent. The FBI's annual Internet Crime Report confirms that health care and public health were the top sectors impacted by ransomware in 2023 as for Black Hat. They actually received that 22 million dollar ransom presumably from Change Healthcare or its parent company The group then disappeared, though experts say its members are likely to rebrand and wreak havoc again. Wait a minute so have they... did they give them the unlock key? The way they described it is they gave them their data back

2:10:35 I have a report to let me see if it brings us some clarity here. This morning, there's also some information about the Department of Health and Human Services going to put change health care on the operating table now last month changed healthcare was hit with what the American Hospital Association calls quote The most significant and consequential cyber attack on the US healthcare system in American history end quote Now the insurance billing firm which is what that company does is roughly involves roughly one third of US patient records and the HHS will investigate into whether change healthcare properly protected that data in compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. But the impact actually goes beyond just that cyber attack

CHAPTER 37 / 51 Discussion

Cyber Pandemic Preparedness, Legacy Backup Systems

Referencing Klaus Schwab's warnings of a "cyber pandemic," the hosts discuss the vulnerability of modern cloud-based data systems. They contrast current "cavalier" backup practices with legacy methods involving physical tape archives and off-site storage, suggesting that modern data volumes have become unmanageable.

klaus schwab· cyber pandemic· backups· cloud storage· data management

2:11:21 If you're looking at a co-pay discount card, you're probably not gonna be able to use that at this point in time until the system is fixed. A spokesperson for Change Healthcare and its parent company United Health Group says that it will cooperate with the HHS investigation I don't know man, this sounds... That made it worse. Yes! It sounds like Klaus Schwab was right. And improve our preparedness for a potential cyber pandemic Yeah baby Cyberpandemic So I don't know about you, but early days of computing in this let's say the mid 50s on to the 70s for microcomputers. Okay? Yeah, I don't have any opinion on that. The normal procedure and you know this, the normal procedures would have complete... it wouldn't have backups, it would have archives so you could reach, you know and they'll be done continually on tape

2:12:27 And if you lost the system because everyone thought these things weren't going to work very well, you could just re-grab an archive from yesterday and reset yourself back up. Do they do any of that now, or are they just random backups or continuous backups? Are the kind of backups that you have to assume the machine keeps working. I mean where's the backups on these things? The guys pull down the system and take all the, say they erased all the disks shouldn't a company be able to reestablish using backup data? A backup and a backup to that back up and a backup to the backup to the backup

2:13:07 That's how it used to be. I don't know, well first of all uh i'm going to push back a little bit when we had to go and get the tape that meant you usually had to drive to the mountain You know oh man he's gotta get the tape and it would take 48 It would take 48 hours to restore from tape restoring from tape took a long time but it was but I don't know I think everything is cloud storage Oh, just throw it in the cloud. Incremental backups? I don't know! I really don't know...I think we've gotten into such a cavalier attitude about stuff but this is Microsoft. I think Microsoft's stuff is just locking it all up and no there are probably no good practices There's too much data people don't how to handle it. I suffer with our dude named Ben This has gotta be incredibly difficult to manage at all

NHS Puberty Blocker Ban, Transgender Maoism

The UK's National Health Service (NHS) has banned the routine use of puberty blockers for children with gender dysphoria, citing a lack of evidence regarding safety and effectiveness. The hosts discuss the closure of the Tavistock Clinic and compare the situation to Australia, which they claim remains heavily invested in gender-affirming medical interventions.

nhs· puberty blockers· gender dysphoria· tavistock clinic· australia

2:14:00 And we really don't know. We're not getting good information about what really happened You know, maybe some guy just screwed up and said it was ransomware and took 22 million You don't know that would be a one smart guy you don't know you really don't know I have a couple topics to discuss That's a lot of trans Maoism stuff popping up I want to make sure we talk about it. Just some headlines, trans women suicide rate doubles after vaginoplasty new study finds so you know that one's off the table would you rather have a dead son versus a living daughter and this one is from Gallup is disturbing 30% of Gen Z women identify as LGBTQ

2:14:58 30% which to me proves that this is just, I just don't want to feel out of place. I wanna be a part of the gang and you know, I don't wanna say I'm straight and so you're just throwing in a cue or like, I'mma be, I'mma cue, I'mma they them I got my pronouns. So this is, i think it's coming to an end. I have a feeling... Yeah you've been saying this for weeks on end! Yeah I feel it's coming and then the big news is there's a new Gamergate and since we kind of

2:15:35 Well before you get off the topic you just started I do have a clip for it. Oh, well this is the puberty blockers clip The Gamergate is a part of it But let's hear that all right so some good news in the fight for medical prudence Britain's National Health Service The NHS has banned the use of puberty blockers for children who claim to have gender dysphoria while fewer than 100 children and teens are currently on blockers in the UK The number of young people referred to NHS Gender Identity Development Services has ballooned by more than 1,600% in a decade. For more on this landmark decision and what it might mean here in Australia I'm joined by journalist Bernard Lane who covers this topic so well for Gender Clinic News

2:16:20 Bernard joins me now. Bernard, take us through this actual decision what prompted it? Well Peter there's a few elements to it first of all an independent expert review of the evidence for puberty blockers which found that the evidence was very weak and uncertain we don't know if they're safe we don't know what effect they have And also you mentioned the spike in patient numbers and the change in the patient profile. Suddenly a lot of teenage girls, that's the background to it and so the National Health Service England has decided that

2:16:56 The puberty blockers should no longer be offered as a routine treatment to young people who are distressed about their gender. Instead there will be non-invasive psychological and social interventions used now that they're closing down the Tavistock Clinic finally on March 31 and through these new regional clinics which will take over the gender service, they will not be giving puberty blockers as routine treatment. Yeah so I saw this news but

2:17:35 I should mention the guy that this goes on for a while. I didn't clip too much but they Mentioned that of all the countries that are all jacked up about this and into it Australia makes us look like weak sisters no Really? Yeah, Australia is completely into it which brings in the idea That there's a Maoist thing involved because because the Chinese are very concerned about Australia They you know they would their Sphere of influence and yeah, they got a good way to go. They got the subs so you know non-invasive Psychiatric help I mean does that mean they're gonna jack them up on drugs on other drugs like You know it sounded like they tried to say counseling but yeah, but no he didn't anti sad pills Maybe I don't know

Gamergate 2, Sweet Baby Inc. Controversy

A new controversy dubbed "Gamergate 2" has emerged involving Sweet Baby Inc., a consulting firm that promotes DEI and "woke" content in video games. The hosts discuss the backlash on the Steam platform and the firm's attempts to deplatform critics, linking the cultural conflict to broader political divisions.

gamergate 2· sweet baby inc· steam· dei· gaming

2:20:18 We purposely missed it. Yeah, but I have always felt this part of the genesis of the bullying and a lot of the DEI and you know it's not fair and women this and men that and toxic masculinity And so I just wanted to mention because I saw it on The Mastodon I saw someone talking about sweet baby and I was like what is this sweet baby thing? So supposedly You know and people are I don't know anything about gaming. I'll say that up front But I do know steam you know Steam is kind of the gaming platform You can get a whole bunch of games there, and people make games put other games as all the steams games as team I think I had to steam app at one point for some virtual reality test which sucks

2:21:06 But this Sweet Baby Inc., apparently they're a consulting firm who consult with games and game makers. And I may have began this wrong, but I think this is what happened. And they make games that are appropriate and you know, they have women as the heroes or some LGBTQ whatever then Sweet Baby Inc. is basically woke, so some user on Steam made a playlist of all the woke games that had been consulted by Sweet Baby Inc., and then the Sweet Baby Inc. tried to get that user deplatformed and at the end of it all its Trump's fault. That's basically what it boils down too

2:21:53 And if there's anything else anyone wants to email me about, let me know. Because I don't want to miss Gamergate 2...I feel that we did a disservice to the producers by missing Gamergate the first time We didn't miss quote, miss it. We just ignored it we didn't understand it I remember we didn't understand. Well, I know we're revisiting past history Yeah, you can always re-engineer it and consider that a possibility No, we did not understand And then the last in this particular episode of trans Maoism The Daughters Of The American Revolution

Mayor Tiffany Henyard, Dolton Illinois Corruption

Mayor Tiffany Henyard of Dolton, Illinois, is under investigation for the alleged misuse of public funds for luxury travel and a personal security detail. The hosts discuss the "season of reveal" for DEI-appointed officials and the specific allegations of sexual misconduct involving a village trustee during a trip to Las Vegas.

tiffany henyard· dolton illinois· corruption· dei· public funds

2:22:30 has now decided to allow trans women into their group. Wow! I know, wow indeed! Whoa that surprised me Yeah it's very subversive A lot of this going on One bad apple gets in there next thing you know. Well we have on that same track, we have another black woman who is being deplatformed or being blamed just as Mo said you watch the

2:23:07 The black women who were pushed to the forefront are now being blamed for everything and they're all being taken down in our grand season of reveal. This is the mayor of Dalton, Illinois. We've been reporting for months on controversies that have clouded Mayor Tiffany Hinyard's administration of that small south suburb The mayor, her security detail and several of her allies went to Las Vegas last May to attend a conference to lure retail business to town. Now we've obtained a complaint filed with the Illinois Department of Human Rights in which one of Hinyard's aides on that trip accuses a trustee of a sexual encounter after she blacked out and had been unable to provide consent. The woman says she later had been fired after reporting the incident to the mayor

2:23:51 In a separate complaint filed with the Department of Human Rights, a Dalton police officer on the mayor's security detail says he had been demoted for coming forward to say the trustee called and FaceTimed with him to brag about his sexual exploits. We are not naming the trustee because he hasn't been charged with a crime but tonight he is telling WGN Investigates that woman story is fabricated and they simply tried to help her while she was intoxicated and high on drugs Trustees saying outside investigators hired by the village cleared him of wrongdoing. Mayor Hinyard's publicist declined to comment, the Department of Human Rights says it has not substantiated these complaints but has started an investigation

2:24:31 It really is, the DEI stuff is falling apart. Boeing's being... all the problems at Boeing are being blamed on DEI The problems that United are being blamed on DEI even though it probably isn't that but when you virtue signal like the dude in the dress Hey United what's his name? The CEO? Oh I can't remember, Kirby I think Yeah When you virtue signal like that You're gonna get blamed You're gonna get by and it's the guy united. Yes, you know I see I want to go back to that clip you just played Okay This is a small-town mayor yes What is a small-town mayor doing floating around Vegas with a security detail? Living it up, baby. With the security detail and as it finished off in the report she has a publicist?! Yes of course! What sort of small town mayor has a publicist? It's beautiful...it's beautiful by the way I told you Are they paying the security detail and the publicists out of public funds

2:25:32 Yes, oh they had the receipts and everything thousands of dollars for hotel rooms and meals I know but I'm talking about the publicist what it It's just beyond me. But yeah well they should go after some of these women they're abusive They abuse power. I am NOT running for mayor anymore. I've decided not to run. What? Yeah, I know I know I'm disappointing you. I took a look at what the mayor has to do I'm like, John it's a lot of meetings. That probably can be more effective doing a podcast here How many meetings are we talking about? It's all meetings! It's crazy the amount of meetings There were governors like when George W Bush was governor of Texas he was only working two months out of the entire year as governor Well this is Fredericksburg Texas there's a lot going on here

Georgia Election Case, Fani Willis and DEI

A Georgia judge dismissed six charges in the election interference case against Donald Trump, citing vagueness. The hosts discuss the legal troubles of DA Fani Willis and NY Attorney General Letitia James, framing their situations as part of a broader failure of DEI-driven appointments in the legal system.

fani wills· donald trump· georgia· letitia james· dei

2:26:25 Then I don't want to deal with that. One update on the Georgia issue, speaking of DEI in law enforcement. Meanwhile a Georgia judge today dismissed six charges in the election interference case involving Mr Trump saying they were too vague including a charge related to this phone call where the former president pressured Georgia's Secretary of State I just want to find 11,780

2:27:07 votes, which is one more that we have. The judge left the door open for prosecutors to refile those charges Mr Trump has pleaded not guilty So this is all falling apart That was kind of the core of the whole Georgia thing wasn't it? Part of it I mean they've hold Georgia things falling apart because Fannie Willis another black woman that you that Moe would point out They're going after because she's corrupt Yeah I mean, some of these people are simply corrupt. Leticia James in New York another black woman is corrupt she's a corrupt person yeah and what does Moe ever discuss why that there is it the black man has been passed over for corrupted black females in certain positions? Well in case you hadn't noticed this few black men in any position because black women

2:28:05 preferably black lesbian women, have been pushed to the forefront of everything. Of every major movement... Black Lives Matter... Yeah exactly it's absolutely true but who is doing the pushing? Soros? Well yes! I mean well now it's no longer George but Alex but all-I mean this a huge organization This-I mean if you just look at The tentacles the Soros Open Society Institute has in Texas alone, it's crazy. There must be 40 or 50 different people in school districts, in DA's offices. It's unbelievable! This is why as I wrote in a Substack column one of my last that I wrote at Dvorak.Substack.com we should re-institute the now defunct House UnAmerican Activities Committee to look into this. These are unamerican activities Yes

2:29:07 Yes. Corrupt black women all over the place A friend of mine was telling me about Sloan Kettering that you know, Sloan Kettering is very racist like oh yeah we can't use that particular company to outsource because they have too many men not enough black people and then they hired this woman who was a black woman who oh she's perfect for the job and she couldn't do the job She had to resign. It's so wrong for everybody and it hurts black women too, more especially I should say this just you know we...I'm glad the airline thing is probably the best thing that could happen for anti-DEI because you could talk about a million times but when people are convinced that because of DEI your airline or your airplane is no longer safe? That makes a difference! That stuff will stop

South by Southwest Boycott, US Military Sponsorship

Over 60 bands boycotted the South by Southwest festival in Austin due to its sponsorship by the U.S. military and defense contractors. Governor Greg Abbott told the boycotting artists not to return to Texas, while the festival organizers defended their commitment to human rights. The hosts recall the festival's role in the 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns.

south by southwest· austin· greg abbott· gaza· military sponsorship

2:30:11 And it should just be merit-based. Hello! Anyway, one more... You sound like Mark Levin! Hello America! The great one! I did want to play one local story. Where is it here? Local story because we have South by Southwest going on right now in Austin. Yeah, South By Southwest It was really going well I mean, there were big names here this year and people were digging it. And it was kind of yeah...I didn't see any of it because any smart person stays away from Austin during South By.

2:30:54 But I was like, well it sounds like this was a pretty good year for South by Southwest until it wasn't. The annual South by South music festival in Austin is looking a lot different this year. Dozens of performers and even speakers canceling their appearances all because an issue that goes far beyond the Austin city limits More than 60 bands are now boycotting because the festival is sponsored by the US military department and also some defense companies. The boycott is a move that some artists say shows solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza as the U.S government continues to support Israel in that ongoing conflict

2:31:31 It was a really hard decision to come to. We kind of went back and forth, I think that we're powerful together and that's really clear." Governor Greg Abbott reacted to the boycott on social media writing quote, bye don't come back! We are proud of the US military in Texas if you don't like it don't come here. And South by Southwest responded to the governor statement saying it does not agree with Abbott adding quote, we have and will continue to support human rights for all. Of course, we all must also remember that South by Southwest really started all of the lockdowns of everything in America. When they said were cancelling South By, that's when everything folded. They were the tipping point and that was Adler our previous mayor in Austin so those people... Whatever happened to him? He went back to being a millionaire real estate lawyer after all his cool deals
