About this episode

President Joe Biden faces mounting pressure from Democratic donors and party leadership following a high-stakes interview with George Stephanopoulos at ABC News. Major financial backers including Reed Hastings and Abigail Disney have paused contributions as internal polling from David Axelrod and the Eurasia Group suggests a significant decline in the President's physical capacity. The White House continues to manage fallout from scripted radio appearances and verbal slips during Independence Day celebrations.

Steve Bannon detailed the strategic rollout of Project 2025 from the Heritage Foundation, focusing on the dismantling of the administrative state and mass deportations at the border. Internationally, Masoud Pezeshkian secured a victory in the Iranian presidential election while Keir Starmer officially ended the Rwanda deportation scheme upon becoming UK Prime Minister. In the tech sector, Google reported a 48% surge in carbon emissions driven by AI data centers, and French startup Moshi Moshi debuted a multimodal voice bot that suffered immediate hallucinations during its live demonstration.

Astrophysicist Dr. Willie Soon released peer-reviewed research attributing 40% of global warming to the urban heat island effect rather than carbon dioxide. Meanwhile, the 1991 comedy Hot Shots! has resurfaced in the cultural zeitgeist due to the uncanny resemblance between the fictional President Benson and current executive gaffes. The show concludes with a deep dive into the value-for-value model and a knighting ceremony for the latest round of executive producers.

San Francisco Fireworks Cancellations, Drone Show Failures

San Francisco and Berkeley canceled official Fourth of July fireworks displays, citing reasons ranging from budget savings to COVID-19 precedents. While some neighboring areas like Richmond held shows on July 3rd, the lack of pyrotechnics in major hubs served as a potential economic indicator. In Seattle, a drone light show malfunctioned when approximately 50 drones fell into the water, an incident the designer attributed to GPS interference caused by solar flares.

00:00 Everybody's bitching about the chicken. Adam Curry, John C. DeVorah. This is no agenda! You've got to be kidding me. It happened again? Not only that,

00:40 We all did dinner on the 4th of July here instead of Friday. And we're looking out and JC was commenting, well I guess there's not going to be any fog finally because it was hot. Oh he jinxed it! He jinxed it! Because it was hot the day before and today, and it was hot on the 4th. And then around 7 o'clock a huge fog rolled in! But the irony is because San Francisco would rather have people peeing on each other in public... Yes this is good They didn't even have a Fourth of July celebration to get ruined What do you mean? There were no fireworks What?!

01:22 And Berkeley didn't have fireworks either. What? It's the unpatriotic new San Francisco Bay Area, the fireworks were in Richmond on the 3rd. That's un-American! Well hold on a second... Is there an explanation for this? I didn't even know it was not gonna happen. Okay that happens but.. I'll tell you this it sounded like a war zone though with Richmond and Oakland going off, just individuals Well, I'll tell you out here we had maybe two like M-80 type blasts go off before 10 o'clock and that was it. I had the dog in her Thunder shirt... No! ...I had her doped up on Benadryl ready to go she raised her head like whatever and she's normally very nervous for this nothing. I talked to Sir Gene in Austin same thing I got text message I got emails because we talked about

02:19 almost no pre or post fireworks. It has been a very quiet year, which is clear that to me is a massive economic indicator. But you already said to me in the last show that there are fireworks stands all the way from Austin to Fredericksburg, left and right every which way so people would have been buying fireworks. And it's legal! Unlike around here where it's not. Well the good news is that Sir Gene used to consult for a couple of these companies because those are like five million dollar-a-year businesses these guys clean up on this stuff so he was gonna call around for me hasn't gotten back to me yet

03:00 he was going to call around and see if they took a total bath or what happened. But yes, 290 between Austin and Fredericksburg is just... there must be nine firework stands. They're like these big containers. And they are year round you can buy not all year round I don't think but there's obvious times when they're open but it was just nothing it was unbelievable we watched the DC fireworks on TV. It was, you know... Well that's pathetic! And then the New York fireworks there's nothing else There was nothing here I mean i'm sure that we didn't go out of course because of Phoebe but I didn't hear anything that was going on usually they have it at Lady Bird Lake so i'm sure they had fireworks but no one had any stuff going on and were pretty close to town Nothing and even the day after usually people shooting some remnants stuff off none of its

03:55 No, no. I think this is a... along with your rule of thumb which is of course the sex workers they get better looking and cheaper well I don't know if they get cheaper If the economy gets worse? If the economy gets worse! I think this is a new one but have not yet seen this and I think people were just like nah I'm not gonna blow my money up in the air And I got a lot of confirmation from around the country you know obviously They can't get anything from anywhere else because it's unique to the US, but it was stunning. And then to hear that they didn't even have a Fourth of July in San Francisco... That's amazing! Amazing! Well Berkeley canceled their Fourth of July. They used COVID-19.

04:48 as an excuse to end their fireworks. They used to have a pretty good fireworks display off the pier, right into the bay near Emeryville and they ended it then and then they haven't returned because you know it's like look at all the money we saved! And Sam is... The only one around here I mean there's some I think Pleasanton has one at the county fair and there are some other ones here and there but The only one nearby is in Richmond and they do it on the 3rd wisely because of that 4th of July fog which rolled in on the 4th of July right on time. And so they have a pretty good show but this year was kind of, it was different because they didn't have like I was commenting on this in the last show, they didn't have the hearts, they didn't have the smiley faces and they didn't have my favorite firework

05:39 piece which is a cube, which if you ever seen it. Yeah yeah you mentioned this the Cube Firehouse. It's like you look at and go wow that's a cube! I think people these days are much more enamored by the drone shows The drone shows are terrible Oh? I thought drone shows were pretty cool when they do it right Well yeah, but it's just there are no explosions. I agree! This country was birthed in the middle of explosions we need to celebrate it with explosions what is going on? Now did you hear about the drone show that went awry because up in Seattle they've... Seattle used to have some of the most advanced fireworks displays off The Needle

06:21 every year because they had this very famous Japanese fireworks designer who would do them every year. And there was fireworks, stuff like you've never seen before and that guy retired and he stopped doing it a couple years ago and then went to drones. And this year because I mean, he claims is because the solar flares They lost their GPS and 40 of them or 50 of them went in the drink I Shouldn't laugh but Come on. That's pretty funny Yeah, I thought that's funny too because you can imagine a big drone show and they lose their GPS because I guess They're all you know, they're computerized but they need GPS Oh yeah Of course they do precisely as say to all this sudden lose GPS it'll come flying into the crowds Can you imagine that no? No

CHAPTER 02 / 41 Discussion

White House Independence Day Gaffes, Kamala Harris Commander-in-Chief

During a Fourth of July celebration at the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris appeared to refer to herself as the "commander in chief" before correcting to "the President of the United States." President Joe Biden followed the introduction with a confused "Ho-ho-ho" greeting. These verbal slips added to ongoing public scrutiny regarding the executive branch's cognitive performance.

joe biden· kamala harris· white house· independence day· gaffes

07:08 Well, there was an interesting moment during this Fourth of July celebration at the White House event with not one but two kind of gaffes I would say. One from the president and one from the vice-president have a listen. Independence Day. And today as we celebrate freedom, as we celebrate the promise of America, we also celebrate and express our gratitude to our service members, to our veterans, to our military families! And we give thanks to our commander in chief, the vice president of the United States, the extraordinary... Did she almost say the Vice President? I kind of heard that

07:57 Baby. No, listen! Commander in Chief the Vice- The President of the United States! The Extraordinary President of the United States! John! Oh ho ho! Happy Independence Day! Well at least he got the independence day out for him. Freedom! That's what I wanted to say. I wanted you throw a freedom out that would have we could have used a good freedom very very bizarre Our president, our poor president is not doing so well. So what was the... do you have the other gaffe? No that was two! That was her saying that was President and him going ho-ho-ho Merry I mean we didn't say... Ho-Ho-Ho Merry Christmas Yeah, Ho-Ho-Ho Happy Independence Day okay

CHAPTER 03 / 41 Discussion

George Stephanopoulos ABC Interview, Joe Biden Cognitive Decline

President Joe Biden sat for a 22-minute interview with George Stephanopoulos to address concerns following a poor debate performance against Donald Trump. Biden attributed his performance to exhaustion and a "bad cold," while claiming he did not remember if he had watched the debate footage afterward. Technical issues with the ABC audio engineering were noted for making the President's voice sound particularly weak and processed.

george stephanopoulos· abc news· joe biden· presidential debate· cognitive test

08:46 I see you have the clip so i will get us going with a little intro backgrounder 30 seconds just to get us all pumped. This week with George Stephanopoulos starts right now! Standing firm... I'll beat Donald Trump. President Biden fights to save his candidacy. I just had a bad night, I don't know why. Pressure mounts for him to step aside. I don't think anybody's more qualified to be president or win this race than me. Can he reassure voters? Would you be willing to have the independent medical evaluation? Clove of panic in his own party! Do you really believe that you're not behind right now? Oh man what a hootenanny, we both watched it... John what did ya think?!

09:29 It was a whole 22 minutes. Yeah, it was the extended remix! Well there was... I have three clips I have the opening salvo which ended with Stepanopoulos was obviously just reading from an anti-Biden script provided to him by the Council on Foreign Relations. Anyone who read the last newsletter knows my thesis on this and you're not disagreeing with it? No, no in fact they only have clips to back up later obviously Yeah, well it's because once the dawns on you go all hello. The only person who is not on the Council of Foreign Relations who was out there is Axelrod, who was of course Obama's campaign designer and mastermind and manager the first time around. Axelrod, he should be a CFR member I feel but he's more the Chicago mob guy

10:27 He's everywhere. He's everywhere right now. It's probably one of those guys who wouldn't be a member There are people that just won't do it Yeah, cuz you know the when he could become a member they take into a backroom and juice up with stuff in brainwashing Then give you an electric shock yeah You know that and then take a picture Yes was something in your mouth exactly so Let's start with, this is the killer one. This is right at the beginning and I thought this was interesting because this was played by a lot of people and nobody picked up on the obvious question Is this a bad episode or sign of more serious condition? It's a bad episode No indication of any serious condition. I'm exhausted. I didn't listen to my instincts

11:17 in terms of preparance and bad nights. in Camp David, why wasn't that enough rest time? Enough recovery time. Because I was sick and was feeling terrible matter of fact the docs with me asked if they did a COVID test because we're trying to figure out what's wrong They did a test to see whether or not i had some infection you know virus...I didn't it just said really bad cold And did you ever watch the debate afterwards? I don't think I did no Okay but before we get into the content of that

12:01 What in the world is going on with the ABC audio engineers? What is happening?! I mean, this must be purposeful. This was so horrible it made Biden sound even weaker than he already is in his speech and the room noise... there was no reason for this! Well that's a good point It seems like that guy they used to put him in a bucket Remember that guy? Yeah yeah they used to put a bucket in the corner throw the mic in there It's a trick, it's a technique. And now that more people are noticing this in the audio field and they're saying things like even during the debate his audio was weirdly processed I don't know if you have but at one point Biden leans forward and he going like...and he is saying, you know, I'm doing all this in the middle of the wars but there his audio was like bleh! It was really something some harmonic. It was very odd

13:05 disturbingly bad for a professional organ. I mean, dude show number three sounds better when in 2007 we were doing it through Skype! I mean it's crazy how bad it was... It was just really bad Well, the point I was going to make with that clip was this was the very end of the clip where Stephanopoulos doesn't follow up. The...I saw Fox play this clip. I saw everybody play his clip and nobody said anything about it which surprises me which is at the end he's asked if you saw the debate and even played in the very end again Oops sorry yeah well sorry I don't think i saw it a really bad cold And did you ever watch the debate afterwards?

13:49 I don't think i did, no. So the question what do you mean you don't think you did? He doesn't know if he watched the debate after he did the debate. Now I know a lot of people don't like watching themselves, there's a lotta actors who'll never watch their own movies or it's people that do that and could say that you know I don't like watching myself but he didn't say that, he says I dunno, I dunno if I saw it again, I don't remember! That was very disconcerting and that brings me to a note down after we play the next clip I'm gonna read the note from a neurologist who I think has got

14:26 determination here that's coming up and I think it's confirmed by this next clip. This is a very short clip, and this is the... just the shouting clip. Yes. Kanye was having a bad night when I realized that even when I was answering the question even though they turned his mic off he was still shouting And I let him distract me Now, at this point we know he didn't watch the debate. No and he wasn't even there! Because if he had watched the debate he'd know that it was almost 90% of time it was a two-shot. It wasn't a two shot but as a double box yes so they had Trump in a box and him in a box so you saw Trump the whole time and you never once saw him shouting over with a dead mic no

CHAPTER 04 / 41 Discussion

Lewy Body Dementia, Joe Biden Hallucination Claims

An anonymous neurologist suggested that President Joe Biden's symptoms, including frequent gaffes and shuffling gait, are consistent with diffuse Lewy Body Disease (DLB). This condition, which famously affected actor Robin Williams, involves protein deposits in the brain and can cause visual hallucinations. Observations of Biden claiming Donald Trump was "shouting" with a muted microphone during the debate are cited as potential evidence of such hallucinations.

lewy body dementia· parkinson's· robin williams· mayo clinic· hallucinations

15:21 I cannot that I can remember. He wasn't shouting at all, but he wasn't shouting with a dead mite which makes me think that uh makes me and i feel bad about some of this it makes me think that Biden is having hallucinations which brings me to this note from yes yes I put this in the show notes this is good This says do not use my name I'm anonymous these are new anonymous neurologist The symptoms probably started when by Biden was VP He's talking about these manifestations and manifest as frequent gaffes. And you know, I'm reading this note and then I also have a note from...I have a little rundown from the Mayo Clinic on this phenomenon and now it makes me feel bad

16:11 About art drunk or not drunk. Oh, oh okay? Oh wow now we have to feel bad about it We are so well you're the one that kept saying this elder abuse. We shouldn't be doing this Yeah, and then and then you made me give that up You said I don't care he deserves if he deserves exactly right You're absolutely right. I bitched about you complaining and then you just relented, and we continued it. But now I feel bad what can i say? Alright that's okay you're a mensch! What can I say? You're a mensch! The symptoms probably started when Biden was VP and manifest his frequent gaffes

16:52 This resulted in episodes of misremembering and fabricating stories from his past. This was reminiscent of President Reagan when he was accused of confusing movie roles with reality, and it predated his announcement that he had developed Alzheimer's." And let's please remember that every psychologist was out there analyzing Trump as being insane, narcissistic personality disorder... all kinds of things they did Yeah, and they continue to do so. Yeah where is that here? Over time Biden's episode occurred more frequently outbursts of anger and irritability emerged and the condition seemed to interfere with his judgment and self-control over the last two years the signs have a Parkinsonian syndrome decline in balance stiffness showing slowing down soft voice mumbling and difficult to understand speech became apparent no tremor has been noted this is

17:47 Typical presentation of diffuse Lewy body disease, DLB. And it would be less likely to be consistent with Parkinson's. DLB is worse as the cognitive and psychiatric symptoms are more severe and there is no treatment and the disease tends to progress more quickly And this is what Robin Williams died of. Yes, we also put a video in the show notes of his widow from 2022 doing a TED talk about this. Now that video... It's quite interesting I watched it only 10 minutes but it was quite interesting! That video

18:33 is from 2022 and it cropped up. I believe it was planted to crop, it was made to crop up this is starting to be introduced. I'm convinced by again the CFR out to get Biden they have to get rid of him because this is becoming ridiculous and so I went to the...I sent you another one which will be in the show notes which is Lewy body dementia symptoms and causes from the Mayo Clinic And one of the things that's in there is visual hallucinations, which Robin had issues with. And these are frightening hallucinations and if you remember... Which is why I think he said that he imagined or he saw Trump still shouting... Oh okay yes! Yes If he has that diagnosis, if that is true and there's a lot of evidence that points towards it this what does it called?

19:28 L-E-W-Y, body. Louie Body? Louie Body is a little protein that gets stuck I guess in the brain. Which means you because of course Parkinson's is typically equated to the tremors shaking but that obviously is not all of the story Yeah, he doesn't show any tremors. But this idea harkens back to about I think it was three years ago the first time that we saw the Easter egg roll in Washington DC where they introduced that giant bunny Oh right and the bunny was his handler And at one time

20:12 Biden turned around and saw the bunny, and freaked out as if it was a hallucination. Remember this? Oh yes! Yes! Oh man... Boy hey you need to come to the Curry-Dvorak Consulting Group for all your psychological problems we can help you We can solve it, we're good So Biden looks at the bunny and freaks out And then kind of runs away from the bunny As though he's running away from He maybe, he obviously been having hallucinations Good call back Yeah, thank you. And so this idea that Trump was shouting when we all witnessed that he was not shouting and he wasn't shouting with the mic off because we could see the two shot because they kept showing it...was Biden's imagination So Biden is imagining things. And he probably imagined that later maybe not even at the time He just imagined it later

21:08 He could have reconstructed it. And by the way, how easy would it be to suggest to someone like that? That's a good point Jill. A couple more little just more symptoms here before I play my last clip from the debate or debate whatever its called Movement disorder, signs of Parkinson's disease known as Parkinson's signs may occur. These symptoms include slowed movements rigid muscles tremor or shuffling walk this can cause a person to fall. Many times up the stairs on the podium everywhere yeah poor regulation of body functions

21:48 The part of the nervous system that controls automatic functions is called the automatic nervous system. The Lewy body dimension can affect how well the autonomic nervous system controls blood pressure, heart rate blah blah blah this can result in death, dizziness falls and bladder control and death and bowel issues. Okay, I'm not gonna take us to D-Day that's not fair. Cognitive problems trouble with sleep this is interesting they have to take a lot of naps and the naps come into the conversation varying attention episodes of drowsiness long periods of staring into space long naps during the day or disorganized speech are possible

22:39 depression and apathy a couple other things that this is in the show notes I did. I sent it to you can put it in there, and just from the Mayo Clinic so when I heard him I just want to mention that stuff because when I heard him say that he that Trump was shouting and it was distracting him I'm thinking well this guy's shot Anyway, so we have the Council on Foreign Relations going after him to get rid of him for obvious reasons now and John Carl who is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations Of course he is. Yeah, of course because

CHAPTER 05 / 41 Discussion

Democratic Party Pressure, Joe Biden Candidacy Challenges

Internal pressure within the Democratic Party intensified as Representatives Angie Craig and Mike Quigley publicly called for President Joe Biden to step aside. Major donors, including Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings and Abigail Disney, have threatened to withhold funding until a new nominee is selected. Despite these calls, Senator John Fetterman and other allies continue to defend the President's fitness for office.

jonathan karl· axios· reed hastings· john fetterman· angie craig

23:22 Everyone knows a reporter from ABC should be an expert on foreign relations. So Jonathan Karl is actually his name, but Jonathan Karl is one of the analysts at the end of this 22-minute thing and he is on board with getting rid of Biden and he makes a big fuss about it And so he has some comment, his is very negative. He actually doubled down on you know, Stepanopoulos seemed to be kind of mixed and apparent I think mixed feelings. He didn't look like it was comfortable delivering this blow which was it wasn't harsh but it wasn't you know didn't prove anything positive for Biden but Carl decides to come in and this is I think one of his comments that

24:12 piling on. Or his answer is particularly, I believe alarming to some of those Democrats. You asked him how he will feel in January if he has lost to Donald Trump and all that he has warned would happen came to pass? And this was his answer. He said, I'll feel as long as I gave it my all and did the best job I know I can do that's what this is about.

24:49 One prominent ally of the president simply responded to me, wow when I asked about that question. Unnamed ally of course so the bottom line here there was nothing in this interview that will force Joe Biden out of the race There was no you know major thing that they will convince him or any of his allies I believe they have to go but there's also Nothing in this interview that will calm the nerves of Democrats who are saying it is time for him to get out. That's it for now. I can... That will be my presentation. Take it, chef! Thank you, thank you chef off to CBS which stands for Chef Broadcasting Systems. I'm Robert Costa in Washington and this week on Face the Nation with July 4th behind us the week ahead could be a critical one from the political future of President Joe Biden

25:47 and the Democratic Party. Ten days after Mr Biden's debate performance rattled Democrats, many of them across the country are privately and publicly questioning whether he is the strongest candidate to face former President Donald Trump. President Biden says he's up to the job and insists, as he did in an exclusive interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos that he will not quit the race. If the Lord Almighty came out and said Joe get out of the race I'd get out of the race but the Lord Almighty's not coming down But the pressure on the president to consider stepping aside from the contest is intensifying

26:22 And with Congress back in session and key US allies headed to Washington for a NATO meeting, the next few days are set to be crucial ones. Okay so it's all staging it's all you know very dramatic music of course NBC meet the press All In This Sunday pressure campaign Four months till election day A defiant President Biden vows he is staying in the race I am running and gonna win again But as his poll numbers plummet and Democrats consider Vice President Harris at the top of the ticket, pressure is building for him to drop out. I think it's a legitimate question to say is this an episode or is this a condition? He has to show that he can do the job. He does not have a lot of time. Can the 81-year old president reassure his party he still fit to serve? I have a cognitive test every single day

27:14 Every day I have that test. Oh, wow! Everything I do... So at this point and I think there's something going on behind the scenes which i'll get to This is all just window dressing This is just a let everybody into it like you know It's over its time I mean literally what is the What article is this? Biden's ABC interview flops. This is from Axios with Hill Democrats quote, he's toast! So I mean it were...this is..it's....I think there are already things being arranged and have some ideas about that first let's go to the network that scored this exclusive

27:52 ABC. Tonight President Biden hoping to turn the page, saying calls for him to drop out of the race over concerns about his age are nonsense in a campaign fundraising message Biden saying they were wrong when they said we couldn't take on the NRA or Big Pharma or big oil forget the pundits His team arguing that over the last 24 hours, out on the campaign trail and sitting down with our George Stephanopoulos. The president has demonstrated he is fit to serve and has a path to win. A source familiar with the campaigns thinking telling ABC News... Again I mean all of it is there's no one's actually coming on the air and saying much if there's a couple of Congress people

28:30 Who have been pushed the foreground but in general it's all sources say people familiar with they don't really have the people who? Have either the balls to do it or the authority to do it This is all marketing at this point Milly with the campaign's thinking telling ABC News We're electing a president to lead and deliver for the American people In an incredibly dangerous and fraught time we're not electing a performer for a reality TV show But a growing chorus of Democrats Unconvinced. Five current House Democrats now calling on Joe Biden to step aside. Five? How many are there, how many House Democrats are there like 270

29:09 No, less than that. Well I think it's more like 240 but- But i'm just saying they can only get five to talk. The latest to join the call? Representative Angie Craig of Minnesota a must win state for President Biden another of those house Democrats Mike Quigley of Illinois celebrating Biden's record but saying he does not think the president can win It was a tough race its brutal now with the greatest respect I don't think hes up for it A handful of heavyweight donors also publicly weighing in, including Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings saying he needs to step aside. But others forcefully defending Biden including Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman. I wouldn't be here right now if I didn't absolutely believe that he is the right man. That's the endorsement you want? That guy and he has deserved to have our kinds of support and all that

CHAPTER 06 / 41 Discussion

Donald Trump Golf Cart Video, Republican Convention Prep

A leaked video captured Donald Trump discussing the political decline of Joe Biden from a golf cart, suggesting the President is "quitting" the race. In the footage, Trump comments on the toughness of world leaders like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping in contrast to Biden's current state. The Republican National Convention is scheduled to begin in nine days, with Trump expected to announce his vice-presidential pick shortly.

donald trump· vladimir putin· xi jinping· republican convention· leaked video

30:01 and this thermonuclear meltdown, and just a couple days after that it's like for Democrats for God sake you know get a spine or grow a set one or the other. Yeah a lot of god coming in I mean Biden...I don't have it but Biden saying oh no until god comes down and tells me to stop I'm not stopping okay. There was there's one of the pundits on Fox that said at Biden's age he shouldn't be invoking God. He just might come down and say, hey Joe here I am! Asking for trouble These are two short ones with Rick Klein who's the political, I think the boss of the political coverage over at ABC. Let's get right to ABC News Political Director Rick Klein and Rick give us the big picture here Biden remains defiant but the clock is ticking towards a convention where does he stand in this race right now? This is great defiant clock is ticking

30:53 with that he turned that around substantially. Those numbers are going to be interesting to watch in a very consequential couple of days ahead." Okay, so thank you Rick for saying nothing but let's get back to how about Trump? And Rick what about Biden's opponent Donald Trump and his campaign how are they responding to this turmoil among the Democrats Trump has been uncharacteristically quiet. He did put out a pretty snarky statement encouraging Biden to stay in the race after the interview with George But he also has a lot on his own plate his convention The Republican Convention starts in just nine days and before then, he's almost certain to choose a vice presidential running mate Even though the contours of this race are quite unsettled as at this moment as of this moment Okay so of course Trump did do something very sneaky which

31:54 We I got a reasonable copy of it. It's only 42 seconds Most people have probably seen that this is the leaked golf cart chat. Yes, the legal I thought you we had in the last show no no no audio was bad Yeah, this is a better audio which I got from somebody must have fixed it then believe me Trump made a call hey Hey You can't really hear it The No Agenda guys need to be able to play it Oh, here it is. So I just can't imagine. But can you imagine that guy with dealing with Putin and the president of China, who's a fierce person? He's a fierce man, very tough guy. And they see them. They probably think they just announced he's probably quitting. Thank God. Yeah. Just keep knocking him out.

33:06 So clearly they went back and sweetened this or got a better copy and let it out there. Thank you, we appreciate that for the show it's always good. I should mention that in there he did give Xi a call-out. Yeah well Putin and Xi. Obviously on purpose to boost him Well also that's what the American people really need here You know the debate none of nothing was really about what... And certainly the Biden campaign is doing is they're not saying this is why you want him, no it's only to beat Trump! To beat Trump but that horse is already broken down in the field. The horse is glue, its glue You know? No one cares about that anymore People care about why can't I afford fireworks

CHAPTER 07 / 41 Discussion

David Axelrod CNN Analysis, Democratic Voter Polling

Former Obama advisor David Axelrod noted on CNN that 75% of the American public believes Joe Biden failed the cognitive test of the recent debate. Axelrod highlighted that Biden is currently trailing in most battleground states, a significant shift from his ten-point lead four years ago. The reluctance of down-ballot candidates, such as Senator Tammy Baldwin, to appear with the President is cited as a sign of his diminishing political utility.

33:53 So here's the not, here's the non-CFR David Axelrod on CNN with his very cool. He was pretty quiet we haven't heard much from Axelrod until the debate now he is everywhere Well the question is did he change the minds of voters who were watching that I don't really think so you know he Jim and some of it I found sad but He seems not to be able to compute the fact that people have these questions about him. When George Stephanopoulos asked him if he'd be willing to take a cognitive test, he said I take a cognitive test every day. Well the fact is that may be true but 75% of the American people think he failed

34:41 They say he fails. I mean, they've lost... And so this is a real problem for him and it's something that shows up in every poll and in terms of where he stands in the race you know there no politician out there will tell has the same perception that The president does that this is a tied race and he's right in the hunt right now He was ten points ahead four years ago. He six points ahead behind now worse in most of the battleground states and now in danger of losing states that weren't thought to be in contention. So what you see, Jim... You saw it in Wisconsin today Tammy Baldwin the senator from Wisconsin wasn't at this event Why? Because she's up for re-election and its not helpful to her to be seen with a president This is what going to happen And somebody really needs to be honest with him

Ian Bremmer Eurasia Group, Biden Nominee Predictions

Geopolitical analyst Ian Bremmer stated on Deutsche Welle that Joe Biden is physically unable to serve another four-year term. Bremmer predicted that Biden will not be the Democratic nominee on the ballot in November, suggesting that the conversation has shifted from mental acuity to a general consensus on physical capacity. He criticized the campaign's delay in addressing these concerns through media appearances.

ian bremmer· eurasia group· deutsche welle· nominee· ageism

35:38 about it. It can't be the good Lord, but it should be people who love and care for him and his closest advisors His portrait of where he is in this race doesn't comport with reality This really amazing how they bring God into this. Everyone's doing that ever since Joe invoked it. It's weird Now let's go to an actual CFR member from the European arm of the Central Intelligence Propaganda News Service. It's Deutsche Welle Now, who would they bring on who is a fine CFR member over there in Europe? Could be anybody. I don't know... Ian Bremmer!

36:17 Oh God yes. CND geopolitical consultancy, say. I'm joined by Ian Bremmer he's an author and president of the geopolitical risk consultancy Eurasia Group. It is good to have you back on the show. You've got the president there saying judge me by the past three-and-a-half years don't judge me by 90 minutes from last week but the polls suggest that it's not what people are doing this has been most significant concern

37:05 of Biden's campaign and potential re-election is that he's too old to serve. I've never seen an election campaign in any major democracy where a person running is clearly not going to be physically able to serve out the entire term, and there's nobody that thinks that Biden would be able for four more years to actually act as president. Now, I mean that implies he really shouldn't have been running for re-election a year ago and a lot of people have been saying that and concerned about it but Biden himself has not been the issue is that what everyone's been worried about quietly everyone now is worried about in public

37:54 And that is the fact that Biden's age and his physical capacity, and to less of a degree perhaps his mental acuity. But it's really I think about the ability just serve in the role. It's a very, very pressing job Very few people believe that he's up for that. And that is the nature of the crisis that he and the Democrat Party, Democratic Party today is facing in United States. Interesting that he switched from the correct term Democrat Party to Democratic Party. I haven't heard that done. at the end there. But I think these are the talking points, it's like hey you know this might be something going on with his mental acuity but really he's just clearly not up for the job. Instead of getting into that possibility that he has dementia one form or another let's just say be ageist about it because everybody can relate to ageism! You know we hate old people Yes yes of course I'm starting to understand more and more myself every day

38:59 He's going to hammer it home here, though. They are saying that this is a problem and it needs to be addressed. And frankly, it needs to have been addressed a week ago that they shouldn't have waited until Friday the week after the debate to have a sit down no holds barred taped interview with our friendly George Stephanopoulos in to be out there more friendly to who, Ian? To the Democrats or to the CFR. I'm thinking he means a friendly to the CFR with our friendly George Stephanopoulos to be out there more immediately and and more extensively but they know that over the next weeks

39:48 They're going to have to address this in a way that is seen as satisfactory by the bulk of Biden supporters or Biden is gonna have to stand down. And if you ask me what I expect at this point, and I'm not saying this on the basis of having spoken to Biden but I expect that Biden will not be the nominee. I think his name will not be on the ballot in November." There you go, so that's the final word and what he says is they know they know they know... So he's not talking about the Democrat party, he's talking about the Biden family

Biden Family Negotiations, Jill Biden Power Dynamics

Speculation regarding the Biden family suggests that Jill Biden is the primary decision-maker regarding the President's political future. Theories are presented that the family is currently negotiating a lucrative exit strategy to maintain their financial interests and "grift" after leaving the White House. This includes potential roles in foundations and the protection of business interests established during the Vice Presidency.

jill biden· hunter biden· crime family· ukraine· power player

40:28 And we know that the Biden crime family got together with Hunter. You know, they're all sitting there Jill of course we know that she's the power player She is the only one who can really control Joe and really I'm sure he looks to her for 47 years as you pointed out on the last show I mean, just go even just his legislation the 94 crime bill but the way he would talk to people. He was a douche He always was just a mean spirited retail politician and Biden No, I'm not even saying who. I said Hope because yeah, I like the idea of a retail politician Thank you. Thank you. I don't know where I picked that up It's not one of my own And if you're in politics for 50 years and you're still there

41:18 I mean, you know people say why did Obama choose Biden? How about he has that type of power. How about he has the goods on people? No, but I don't want to... You know this is really irksome that i'm going to bring this up. No your...I am agreeing and I already agree with you. What I want to bring up is the clip that we lost And I brought it up before, it was a couple of black guys on some podcast or something and this was like I'd say during the Obama administration where one of the black guy says you don't have a clue about what's really going on with Obama in that White House. Joe Biden is a powerful man and he went on and on about him being like the head of a crime family and a gangster and somebody who had to be careful about

42:08 And it was just an off-the-wall clip that we played, and I always remembered it. But unfortunately, I couldn't find in a million years because who knows how it was titled? But ever since I heard that, I've always taken a secondary look which will always brought me to the This all, by the way always brought me to the idea that in some ways Biden was faking his ailments as Vincent the Chin Gigante did during the mop. But now with this Louis bodies things I don't think so No but the family look we know look we know that the family

42:47 Has had this fantastic business going on with getting money and let's just you know Let's rewind the tape here for a second. We know what Hunter has been getting in we know what? What Joe Biden and we know that, you know the billion dollars in Ukraine I mean the guy had power that you know Why else would Barack Obama have him in there was yeah That it seems like he has or certainly had some power And that power now rests with Jill and Jill of course at this point is knows that this has to come to again. So I think there's a negotiation going on, and have thoughts about it First let's just briefly hear from the BBC Another Democratic member of the US Congress has called on President Biden to drop out of November's election race In all five Democrats in the House of Representatives have called on Joe Biden to step aside The latest to come forward is Angie Craig A member from the state of Minnesota

White House Scripted Radio Interviews, Black Media Outreach

CNN reported that the White House provided pre-approved questions to black radio hosts for interviews with President Joe Biden. One host admitted that the campaign sent eight questions, from which she was allowed to choose four to ask on air. This revelation has fueled criticism that the administration is tightly controlling the President's media interactions to mask his cognitive state.

black radio· white house· scripted questions· media manipulation· cnn

43:43 She said she didn't believe that the president could effectively campaign and win against Donald Trump. There was, she said simply too much at stake and Mr Biden should make way for a new generation of leaders." Now just before I get to the final bits here there was a feeble attempt before this Stephanopoulos interview to get Joe in with the blacks. That's the only thing they're still trying to do is keep him in with the blacks and he did two interviews with Black Radio. Oh, yeah I hope you have the clip that I'm looking for. CNN had to of course help us understand that even that was phonied up! You each were asked four questions and maybe that's what you are allowed to ask by

44:31 the campaign or the White House. But they were essentially the same questions, both interviews about accomplishments progress in your respective state what's at stake in the election? What he has to say about his debate performance and what would say voters who think their vote doesn't matter or might sit this election out Were those questions given to you by the White House or did you have for the campaign Or did you have to submit questions ahead of this interview The questions were sent to me for approval. I approved them Okay, so the White House sent the questions to you ahead of the interview? Yes, okay I got several questions eight of them and before that which was one with the ones that I approved I love this yeah, I approved those questions though of the eighth that they sent me

45:18 That makes you sound like there was... I know, I was in total control of this interview. Because I approved four of the eight questions that I was allowed to choose from So all of that just shows that this is over and now we need to figure out how to get Joe out and I really have the feeling that Jill is in control Hunter's in there because Biden, including his brother they're all like hey look The minute Joe's out, the gravy train stops. So we got to set something up right here right now so that we can continue on into the sunset—Joe certainly—but the rest of the family they need to have some kind of grift going forward and I say that you know it's high level this is not unique to the Bidens Nancy Pelosi has her own stock everyone has had some kind of scam going on it seems

Donor Strike, The Economist Walker Cover

Major Democratic donors, including Gideon Stein and Abigail Disney, have officially paused contributions to the party until Joe Biden is replaced. The Economist magazine featured a cover image of a walker with the presidential seal, an image that mirrors art previously used by the No Agenda podcast in 2021. Donors expressed that while they respect Biden's record, they believe he cannot defeat Donald Trump in the general election.

abigail disney· the economist· gideon stein· campaign finance· cover art

46:15 And here's the real problem. This is what it all comes down to. all contributions to the party until President Biden is replaced at the top of the ticket. She said Vice President Kamala Harris is a viable alternative in his statement to CNBC, Disney said if Biden does not step down, the Democrats will lose Of that I am absolutely certain The consequences of the loss will be genuinely dire. Disney has made six-figure donations to Democrats and progressive causes during previous election cycles on Wednesday, Netflix founder Reed Hastings told the New York Times Biden needs to step aside. The president has also lost support of much of the media exhibit a the latest cover of The Economist by the way I gotta stop this for a second we probably all saw the cover of The Economist with the Walker with the presidential seal on it

47:19 Am I crazy in remembering that was actual No Agenda album art in the past three years? You're not crazy at all. Do you remember what episode it was? Absolutely, I remember it! What episode was... Oh, it's probably five year ago Five year ago?! Well, it had to do with Biden so maybe it was three years ago I would love if we could find it because I mean we were way ahead of the game. Well, you know if Paul Couture's listening he could probably figure out how to find it. Yeah okay so to me it was like oh wow! It looked so much like... They stole our cover art. It kind of looked that way yeah To me because there is the same thing it was a walker and the presidential seal in front of it yes it was exact same art no you're not imagining it because I remember it too

48:06 Mariah Fund President Gideon Stein is also withholding more than $3 million in donations. Stein told CNBC, Joe Biden has been a very effective president but unless he steps aside my family and I are pausing on more than three million dollars in planned donations to nonprofits and political organizations align with the presidential race, with the exception of some down-ballot work. Stein added that nearly every major donor he's spoken to thinks they need to replace Biden in order to defeat Trump. There are others who have donated six seven even eight figures during this election cycle and previous election cycles who agree to pausing donations. Biden said on the 4th of July that he isn't going anywhere

CHAPTER 12 / 41 Discussion

National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act, Biden Foundation Strategy

President Biden recently signed the National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act, which provides federal funding for research into the disease and other forms of dementia. Analysts suggest this legislation may serve as a "swan song" and a way to funnel future research funds into a Biden family foundation. Additionally, the President's history of refinancing his Delaware home 17 times since 1996 is highlighted as a potential method for moving capital.

parkinson's act· paul tonko· beau biden foundation· money laundering· delaware real estate

48:49 His campaign had strong fundraising in June. Supporters gave $127 million, including 38 million in the three days after the debate. So I was talking with my buddy Dave Jones, The Pod Sage and we're going back and forth and we start to find articles... And this is something that we have discussed that you know more about than I do although I have some written information They currently, the Biden-Harris campaign there's only a few things that can happen with that money. You can't just turn around and give it to some other campaign It's not typical the donors will get refunds you really have to use... So Kamala, that's why she is important is because That money has her name attached along with Joe's name They have 91 million dollars in cash

49:40 Imagine if you're the Biden. I thought it was 351? Cash, cash, cash this is cash Okay, that's cash on hand. They have 240 million that's out there but let's just say there is 91 million in actual cash they can write checks for. Good money! If you're behind the scenes and Jill is saying look I represent the family we understand Joe has to get out we understand but we're not going anywhere until The Beau Biden Foundation which used to be The Biden Foundation recently changed to The Beaux Biden foundation according Form 990, File Links has $3 million in cash and assets in it now.

50:20 How about you, because this is what they all want. This is what the Bill and Hillary grift was. This is what Obama's grift was You want the foundation because with the foundation you can get all kinds of money flowing through it. You can fly on jets. You can do all kinds of great stuff Most of it tax-free or tax deferred 50 million dollars out of that 91 Reed Hastings What's the other guy? all the reads, you know the LinkedIn guy the Netflix read Hoffman Hoffman. You guys I want to kick in another 50 million give us a hundred million dollars and then Joe will say you know what? I think it's time for me to step back. I have to focus on other things in particular my health

51:09 And we're going to move to the foundation. Dr Jill Biden knows a lot about Parkinson's, turns out I have Lewy body Parkinson's disease and wouldn't you know it just two days ago this happened President Biden signed legislation this week aimed at preventing and finding a cure for Parkinson's disease championed by New York Congressman Paul Tonko The national plan to end Parkinson's Act will provide more federal funding for Parkinson's research to prevent and cure the disease. The Democrat from the 20th district says more than a million Americans live with the disease that affects the nervous system. It is really good collaborative that we have seen working really well with the Alzheimer's model, with the Alzheimer's plan and I really mimicked that effort on behalf of Parkinson's. The bipartisan legislation is modeled after the 2011 National Alzheimer's Project Act

52:04 which created a national effort to address the Alzheimer's crisis and all other forms of dementia by 2025. Tonko says the bill will help better focus federal spending on research, estimated at $52 billion annually Bingo! Perfect. Perfect exit, perfect swan song he deserves it you got your hundred million in cash we'll guarantee you some of this money from the bill you just signed into law Mr President You may not remember but you just signed into law It's 54 billion dollars We'l make sure you get some of that You're off and good to go And Jill can be the head of the foundation Yes of course Of course Dr. Dr. Jill Dr. Jill

52:46 I think this is a very reasonable way to get him out, to keep the Bidens at bay. They'll be happy they can go off you know it's well in this research did you know that Joe and Jill Biden since they bought their Delaware home which I think they bought in 1996 for and this thing is massive 350 months 300 they bought up for $350,000 in March of 1996 we should be so lucky And they have refinanced it 17 times since. This is how you launder money, real estate is the favorite way to do it and by the way the banks all these Delaware savings companies loan companies chases in there once or twice this is a great way to get money to people here that's how they do it just refinance your house sell your house buy it back

53:47 You know, oh I bought this clearly two to three... in 1996 that would have clearly been a two if not four million dollar home $350,000. Yeah! And then you just take out mortgages, secondary mortgages. Home equity lines... There's a lot of ways of milking it yeah I don't know that mechanism. I'm sure people can tell us but i'm pretty sure real estate is a good way to do it so these people they know it they know how to do this stuff A foundation makes it all legit and we just prom- and you know what? Jill will keep some pictures or some video with some documents They got lots of them

54:29 Keep some documents next to the Corvette that if someone ever decides to, you know, welch on... Yeah we got pictures. Oh here it is! It was episode 1394 Wow it's even at the same angle You're talking about the picture of The Walker with the presidential seal? Yep yep. It's even the same angle What year was that what was that date That is October 28th 2021 How about that? We put that in the show. You know, we were always two or three years ahead of everybody else. Well we also have Dutch masters I mean what do you expect... We still do! Yeah, yeah we got Dutch masters So i think that is the mechanism and they have everything's in place Everything is good to go Jill will have some little shit she keeps behind just in case someone decides to welch on a little piece of that 50 billion dollars That she made Joe sign into law

Kamala Harris Essence Festival, Project 2025 Rhetoric

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared at the Essence Festival and in a BET Awards sketch with Taraji P. Henson to mobilize black female voters. The messaging focused heavily on "Project 2025," claiming the plan would reinstate the draft and target vulnerable citizens. Critics noted Harris's use of slang and "code-switching" during these appearances, as well as Henson's inaccurate claims regarding the criminalization of homelessness.

55:31 He's this is an easy way to go and right on cue bring in the Kingmaker And so Robert how do you guys set this up for face nation this Sunday morning on a CBS television network? So I'm lucky enough to be guest anchor this weekend, and we're gonna talk to Jim Clyburn And I think he really important because he actually has political capital A lot of people claim to have political capital. He actually has it He made Biden the nominee in 20 with his endorsement. Where is he going to stand? Parse his words carefully and listen to what he has to say. What's notable is that Clyburn has been talking publicly about maybe backing Vice President Harris. Notable, of course the Kingmaker time for him to come in

56:10 And even though we haven't really paid much attention to it, Kamala has been out there going for the only constituency that she really has which is the sadly psyoped black American women who somehow believe that Kamala is black. Oh yeah well um... The Essence Awards? We, you we have extraordinary power. And we can never let anybody take our power from us. Never let anybody take our power from us and never be shy about our power. We must encourage in each other ambition. Ambition is a good thing it is good to know one's power and then go for what you want knowing that you can achieve

57:04 Mmm, yes. Good to know! Now do you remember when he played the clip of Taraji with the vice president at the BET Awards? That horrible back and forth? where she's in the dressing room and she's like, code switching to all black talk. Oh yes Let me just play a little bit of it again because I got many notes from people about two things we should have... well couldn't really have known but we should've at least one of them listen to this one more time So what's on your mind? Madam VP Harris, I'm worried about the election. Women's reproductive rights are on the line Our Supreme Court is on the line our basic freedoms are being tested madam BP I know you've been traveling across country What are you hearing? Yeah girl? I'm out here in these streets and let me tell you you're right Taraji There is so much at stake in this moment The majority of us believe in freedom and equality but these extremists

58:07 As they say, they not like us. which we discussed briefly, is Kendrick Lamar saying hey Drake he not like us. In fact he had the song Not Like Us because Drake is half black He's in fact Canadian and Jewish And so that was basically Kendrick Lamar saying this guy he's getting paid he's making bank but he not like us he's an imposter It's like, I think the most tone deaf thing ever.

58:51 is to say, oh they not like us. Whereas she is not even one... Not like us! ...not even like us at all and she grew up in Canada of all places very bizarre that you would invoke that but there was something else that... She doesn't know what she's doing There was something else that one of our producers caught which isn't this next bit? No they're not there's a full-on attack on our fundamental freedoms The freedom to vote Yep. The freedom to love who you love, the freedom to be safe from gun violence, the freedom for a woman to make decisions about her own body not having her government tell her what to do They out here trying to take away pride Plan B and Planned Parenthood but protecting pistols If you ask me they pushing the wrong peas So pushing the peas is slang I was not aware of Pushing the peas is slang for pushing pounds

59:46 pounds of drugs. So they out here pushing the wrong peas! What kind of peas were you talking about Taraji? I mean this was, this was deep very deep and i wonder if that worked at all For sure it worked on Taraji because she then went on the BET Awards and stopped her introduction of the next act on stage, and threw this out. I'm telling y'all you better show up and show out with them ballots! I'm being serious now, I know I look good Not with your votes by the way, with them ballots What is that? That's a good one, good catch With them ballots Like that woman who was busted.

1:00:48 our careers, our next generations to come. Did you know that it is now a crime to be homeless? Mmm, that's not exactly right but okay. Pay attention! It is not a secret look it up they are attacking our most vulnerable citizens I think when you say look it up I think that means don't look it up just take my word for it The Project 2025 plan is not a game Look at them trying to bring the draft back You think they're going to draft

1:01:27 Yeah, black people that's how America works. That's right we are you black yeah? You're drafted please I'm not trying to scare us. I was trying to inform us We got three Supreme Court seats up you guys we need those seats or we have no protection Okay, I got it out my system Our next performer. So they're pushing real hard, it's Kamala for the Black Women of America and which by the way there is only one guy who is now just for some odd reason just holding on tight here's Vivek And that leads me to my view at least of who I think its most likely to be which is no secret of this have been saying this since last year when I said Biden wasn't going to be a nominee

Vivek Ramaswamy Michelle Obama Prediction, Big Mike Theory

Vivek Ramaswamy reiterated his theory that Michelle Obama will ultimately replace Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee. He argued that she is a "tested" figure who could rise above the fray of ambitious governors and senators. This sentiment aligns with long-standing speculation that Barack Obama remains a primary influence behind the scenes of the current administration.

vivek ramaswamy· michelle obama· barack obama· nominee· bernie sanders

1:02:25 I think if you really believe that set of collective incentives, you got to believe there's a reasonable likelihood this is actually going to end up being Michelle Obama. Somebody who is widely loved by many independents who don't follow politics particularly closely somebody who has already in some sense been tested people will correctly anticipate that it would be Bernie Sanders Barack Obama pulling the strings behind the scene, but not in a negative way. I think they would be very comfortable with that for many Democrats and somebody who would rise above so-called the fray of the otherwise conflictive ambitious next generation governors or senators who would otherwise be vying for that position. Yeah he's a diehard! I'll give him that

1:03:03 Yeah, he's worse than you. Big Mike 2024? I think you've even given up on this thing! I did forward bigmike2024 dot com to a guy who built a website... Well that's because your'e a joker at the heart of it all. I'm a joker! That's what I am, a joker. Talking about jokers might as well play this one thing to get it out of the way which is a Biden clip It's the only clip on the list that says Biden And this was, you know I was gonna try to slip it in as well. This is part of the real Part of the of the Stepanopoulos Interview that was actually cut out of the interview after the debate we ran a poll and every single person We pulled thinks that

AI Satire, Trump Freedom Cities Proposal

A satirical AI-generated clip of Joe Biden being told he is "retarded" circulated online, highlighting the increasing role of deepfakes in political discourse. Meanwhile, media outlets criticized Donald Trump's policy proposals, including a 16-week abortion ban, mass deportations, and the creation of ten "Freedom Cities" featuring flying cars. Trump's platform also includes eliminating the Department of Education and enacting federal laws regarding gender.

1:03:46 you're a retard. We polled African Americans, they all say you're a retard Hispanic Americans also think that you're retarded they call you el retardo we even polled actual retarded people even they say you sound absolutely retarded You see where this is going Mr President? Well I just had a bad night That's good. You know, it was funny there was a let me see it was an article in I think it was the Hill? Let me see if I have it here Yes, no, I'm HuffPost opinion It's time for the Biden campaign to embrace AI Yeah! yes, I saw this now

1:04:33 I will admit, I didn't read it because I just looked at the beginning and whatever this is. This is...I don't have time for this." Did you read it? Yes! And what did it tell you? Biden's campaign could instead set the standard norms for what should be reasonable use of AI tools in the campaign arena. For example, disclaimers could be included on AI-generated content because what they're saying is they should do aesthetic enhancements to the president speech AI generated content can be tailored to highlight the present President Biden's accomplishments. Was this like a satire? I don't think so. Clearly sounds like it already! Well, let me see... There was Kaivin Shroff is a guest writer. But there's the name that just makes sense if you reorganize the letters. Yeah yeah well doesn't sound right it sounds like a satire

1:05:29 Well, I didn't think of it as a satire when i saw it. I still don't see it as satire but... But what you just said is very satirical so.. Well in our mind yes remember some people are insane! Yes, I realize that some people are insane and they don't catch satire Our job is to catch it. Well, Kate Fang jumped in and tried to make President Trump look like that retard as we just heard that AI clip from Stephanopoulos. For the last week the media has been portraying Democrats in crisis mode trying to figure out a path to victory after the first presidential debate but what

1:06:12 With all the attention that is being given to Joe Biden, very little scrutiny has been given to the real issues that should have been discussed at the podium. And even less attention has been paid to Donald Trump's fire hose of lies and promises to destroy democracy. For example, Donald Trump has privately promised donors he'll ensure a national 16-week abortion ban And publicly, he's promised to begin the largest domestic deportation operation in American history. Reinstate his Muslim travel ban and expand it to include Gazan refugees. Use the military to address domestic crime, eliminate the Department of Education, roll back dozens of Biden's climate and gun control measures. An act a federal law stating that there are only two genders repeal the Affordable Care

1:06:59 charter 10 new Freedom Cities that include flying cars. Yes, flying cars and of course finally he promises to finish building that wall. Freedom! Flying cars! Flying cars... I mean count me in on all those things. Yeah, I'm good with that yeah i want to live in this freedom city with flying cars ah that'll do it for me Couple other elections around a couple of the elections around the world a well before you wait before you go there I do have this get some other stuff out of the way. I do have come more clips Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were on the topic. That's okay weird and so

PBS NewsHour Analysis, Media Trust Erosion

PBS NewsHour featured a segment with David Brooks and Kimberly Atkins-Storer discussing the Democratic party's "tenuous week." The discussion highlighted a growing rift between legacy media readers and the outlets themselves, with figures like Jeff Jarvis expressing frustration over media meddling. Despite the President's visible decline, some commentators on the panel continued to frame his debate performance as a mere "couple of flubs."

pbs newshour· david brooks· kimberly atkins-storer· media bias· mastodon

1:07:34 So I, and these there's too many of these clips. They're pretty short just one this long is the payoff clip but this is so they had they brought this woman out you we talked about black women and their devotion to Biden in the end of Democrats And so they had instead of Brooks and Shield and Brooks and Capehart, Capehart took off for the 4th July. For The Hamptons for the Hamptons. The Hamptons, Quag! Or some yacht I'm not absolutely sure. I mean Quag But he's...I think is also upset about the Biden fail because he's a big huge Biden He was one of those guys that was talking about Biden is gonna wipe out Trump in the debate Oh yes to hide

1:08:17 So we have this woman, her name is she's got a hyphenated last name Store or something and she's a columnist for the Boston Globe an activist right columnist reporter which is the latest thing. One of these shows, I'll comment on it in more depth but there's all these journalists that are pushing the idea that we shouldn't be doing balanced reporting. It's a bad idea because you know... Oh no! We can't do that we have to be like The New York Times. You have to take Hitler side on the argument? Really what is wrong with you where were you?! So, but she's one of them. And I just if we can tolerate these clips play Brooks and Storer One and this is the setup at a campaign event in Wisconsin this afternoon President Joe Biden vowed to stay in the race for the White House. Well guess what? They're trying to push me out on the race. Let me say as clearly as I can. I'm staying in the race.

1:09:21 For analysis on the tenuous week in the Democratic Party, we turn to Brooks and Atkins store. That is New York Times columnist David Brooks and Boston Globe columnist Kimberly Atkins-Store. Jonathan Capehart is away great to see you both. Jonathan Capehart is hiding in Quagg...hiding in The Hamptons yes So we start off and the two of them are both a typical, of course, of PBS is that NewsHour is that nobody's in disagreement. They're all Democrats are all in lockstep and their opinions which gives the public absolutely no benefit whatsoever but they keep doing it. Can I say something about this for a moment? so I've been tracking like the real diehard New York Times readers

1:10:05 people who grew up with the New York Times, you know who have always trusted the media and two prime examples would be Dave Weiner my partner in creating podcasting and Jeff Jarvis. And they are on Well, I only follow them on Mastodon but I think they're everywhere. Twitter and Facebook and threads! Their real opinions are on Mastodon? No, I think they want to cross-post everything but... They are incensed by the media. They are now, I mean they're talking about we need to set up our own media like hello! Hello podcasting you know we can't trust The New York Times We can't trust the media. We can't trust anybody it's all broken and this to me is a good thing. I love that now people who are obviously or clearly left-leaning or Democrat

1:11:04 just to name it, that they finally see that the media does not care about them. It was great when they were on their side but now they're not and yes The New York Times with their editorial board They are meddling in things that have little to do with journalism Hello! Welcome to the party we all agree on something Yes, I've noticed this too. It's because the New York Times is not pushing their agenda that there's the whatever they want whoever is behind Yeah, they're not pushing what these guys want which is just Democrat Democrat Democrat one party system run by Democrats and Realizing we actually have a one-party system it has nothing to do with politics hit some people behind the scenes

1:11:56 I don't think they're that self-aware, but okay. I think it's just a pure Democrat... Why aren't you pushing Biden more? There is a certain weird blindness to those guys. Yes. Brooks and Starr too Let's just take stock of where we are right now. We have now seen three House Democrats publicly call for the president to step aside, The Washington Post reported late today Democratic Senator Mark Warner is attempting to pull together Democratic senators asking him to leave the race and were starting to see some major democratic donors back away among them Abigail Disney of the Disney family she said in a statement yesterday she stopping all democratic contributions until Biden is replaced and

1:12:41 The quote, this is realism not disrespect. Biden is a good man he served his country admirably but the stakes are far too high. Can can the president change the narrative or is this heading one direction? Look, the President has already done what Democrats were waiting for they needed him to make the decision as to whether he would be the nominee or not we're past the primaries The voters have already had their say. It would have to be the nominee to make that decision, and it seems that he has. So now Democrats really don't have a choice. Mark Warner donors other people don't pick the Democratic nominee for president. The people in the process do and they've already done that so I think at this point I agree

1:13:24 that replacing the president when there's no, not even an heir apparent. The weaker they are we haven't heard anything from Donald Trump this week and that's probably the most disciplined he's campaigned ever because you realize is that Democrats are doing the work for him? She hasn't heard about any heir apparent really she's not read in on anything she's so out of touch huh she is but she is representative

1:14:07 we've been noticing of these black females that are just lockstep in Biden's camp Democrats and it's I don't know, I mean I know Mo has all these theses about the but it's like a setup of some sort. Yeah this is the next one when Trump wins they'll all be out of a job and out of the public eye We'll see Anyway, so we continue now this unfortunately I think this is a little slow moving until we get to the clip four which is the setup But this is clip three coming up David at this critical moment as Kim says how can the president? Calm those concerns that are clearly still out there

1:14:47 Well, he could take a cognitive test which is what I think he should do over the weekend. And then people aren't worried about that they're sort of worried about now but really they're worried about 2027 what Joe Biden's gonna be like in 2027 if he's still president and so i think you should take a test and say and he's taking them in the past and he said I took this cognitive tests best doctors it's all public here it is rest my case And so he could do that, and I think frankly he should do that. Because right now there's like clouds of witnesses. There are all these anonymous stories floating around there. There's a lot of people saying Biden has been like this for weeks or months then there is anonymous stories in White House staff they're all miserable. Then there is anonymous stories that the Democrats in Congress are really angry at the Democrats who were governors who were supporting him. The Democrats in Congress did not want to run with Joe Biden on top of their ticket. So it's all this anonymous floating

1:15:39 And it's very hard to get a sense of where the vibe of the party is. I do think what has been clear in my reading of The Floating, is that people have been more reconciled to the idea that Kamala Harris would be the alternative that moving beyond her is just not a non-starter. There's some doubt about whether the money can flow to any candidate, I think it probably can but you see people getting more comfortable with the idea of Kamala Harris so i don't think this is going to be over though Biden statement today was pretty definitive but the party is... You know 72% of Americans Don't think he's qualified to be president or run again for president That's just reality Boy even Brooks like oh its anonymous Just all these anonymous people

1:16:18 I guess no one talks to Brooks. Guy... Or Storr! So now this is the set, now we have Brooks and Storr, and the woman who's the co-host of the show. She's only one working the weekend or working the holiday. And she is a real... No one wants her at The Garden Party! The racist... The hostess who is South Asian looking. She hates Trump. Storr hates Trump. And Brooks reluctantly Trump

1:17:10 These are largely happening inside the beltway, okay? And again, inside the beltway isn't where the president will be showing. Will be campaigning that's not there I should point out there are voter concerns about his age There are voters concerns too but i have by and large The majority of people that I have heard from from coast to coast want to focus on beating Donald Trump. They have just as much agita about this Democratic infighting and hand-wringing as they do about a couple of sentences that Joe Biden flubbed during the debate They see this inching closer and closer. We're coming up on both conventions, the time to make a decision is over. And I think if Democrats pull together and show again half of the fight that Republicans have who have always stood behind Donald Trump and they actually have a candidate with a good record who believes in fighting for democracy, the better off the Democrats will be yes even if Kamala Harris is the candidate

1:18:10 I think it's a little insulting to her that it only takes until now for them to realize that she is the Vice President of the United States. Maybe, but I think that decision has already had been made and Joe Biden has made it he staying in. Now this is a classic woman she said oh we made a couple of flubs didn't notice that he staring off into space and all the rest of it are or Is there a whole segment of the population that is blind? What's going on with this guy? They just forgot to CC her on the email. They didn't know that she was gonna be watching the debate and see this guy trying to... She still, no, please John I mean I know it This is probably rhetorical what you're doing but she you said at the beginning She just didn't get read in! She doesn't know she hasn't been told though. It shouldn't be given the talking points She's still on the old plan

CHAPTER 17 / 41 Discussion

Steve Bannon Interview, Heritage Foundation Project 2025

Before reporting to prison, Steve Bannon detailed his vision for a second Trump term, focusing on dismantling the "administrative state" and the "deep state." Bannon emphasized that unlike 2017, the movement now has a vetted and trained staff ready to implement the 900-page Project 2025 policy plan. Critics describe the plan as an authoritarian dismantling of the civil service, while supporters view it as a necessary populist revolution.

1:19:06 You got to, hey lady you've got the old code book no wonder. No wonder! What's wrong? But they didn't know, they didn't know Capehart probably has it but he was like screw it I'm out. I'm going to the quag. Going to the beach yeah Okay, so here we go with that. I call this the wow clip because there's a wow kind of thing going on here. David what about the stakes here? Both Kim mentioned Abigail Disney mentioned them in her statement as well Biden backers have told me look they're worried that the focus on this conversation takes the focus off of Trump, who is an anti-democratic candidate with authoritarian tendencies. Who is now newly empowered by that Supreme Court immunity ruling the head of the Heritage Foundation we should point out that's running this project 2025 policy planning for a potential second Trump term said this week he said the country isn't what he called the Second American Revolution and it could be quote bloodless if the left allows it to be there's kind of alarming language

1:20:03 around a potential Trump presidency. Are we losing sight of the stakes here? Putting in five points into chat GPT and saying write 900 pages. That's exactly what it is It might actually have been that way, it sure looks like it It's so old that it still speaks of getting rid of Roe v Wade. That's how old this document is

1:20:40 And, you know the way it's portrayed is oh, I'll clutch my pearls. Trump wants to get rid of the Department of Education what will we do with our children? Yeah and the Department of Education we should note is a recently created department. That's not that's not a radical position from the right at all but... It has been discussed by your ex-governor there in Texas Perry used him When he ran for president, all he wanted to do was get rid of the Department of Education. So the narrative they're trying to create here... in fact I have the headline from Salon Project 2025 was supposed to boost Donald Trump's campaign but now it's backfiring instead!

1:21:20 But no one reads this. I don't know, you know to be honest about it maybe i just missed it...I don't remember Trump even mentioning Project 2025 in any of his speeches! Nooo! I listened to his hour and a half speeches and he never mentions it the guy who mentions it now before I play this last clip Wait wait let me just say one thing I think this came to the foreground When Tucker, of all people did his speech at the Heritage Foundation I think that's when Project 2025 started to surface. I don't...I disagree and i'll tell you why. Bannon Oh, Bannon. Yeah well okay. Bannon's been pushing it and I have two Bannon clips out here...I'll play them after this last clip. Good point good point. John Carl interviewed Bannon and all Bannon does is talk about Project 2025. Okay alright I got you now i'm with you. Now we have to pay off this

1:22:16 These maniacs, hating on Trump and it's all about just don't get him in because he is going to ruin democracy. And he is gonna do... I don't know what they are even imagining. Are we losing sight of the stakes here? Yeah, I think so. Before we went to prison, I went over to see Steve Bannon and interviewed him and I was scared out of my mind like-I just asked him what's going to happen if you guys win? He said it'll be nothing like 2017. In 2017, we didn't have staff, we had nothing but now we've got people who have been vetted, we've got people who are trained and were just gonna go after the deep state. It looked like a dismantling of the civil service basically and that's just the beginning. So i do think people are losing some focus on that

1:22:56 And I've been a broken record on this for whatever, seven years. But it is also true that every American pretty much has seen an elderly relative in decline and they sort of know what that looks like And if I could just do one bit, just random polling. As I mentioned 72% of Americans don't think he should run again in Biden. If you look at the Wall Street Journal and New York Times poll Trump is up by six in today's approval numbers. Biden has had a record low. Trump is winning the swing states by more than before so there's real cause for concern and if your main goal is to get Donald Trump not reelected

1:23:36 To me, it's a very open question of what the best route for that is. And I'm not saying – I am not one of these people who says Joe Biden should sit down and wait. But I do think it's an open question. Do you see that asymmetry? Is that affecting the conversation right now, Kim? I 100% see that asymmetry. Look we can talk about mental cognitive tests that people might want the president to take but we already know Donald Trump has failed the moral test he's failed the democracy tests He's failed the insurrection tests If i like fire hose of lies...I think thats a good one Fire hose of lies

1:24:36 Pyros of lies. So, so John Carl before Banyan went to jail... Yeah, Banyan. Before Banyan went to jail John Carl and I guess Brooks did too interviewed him you know what? I don't know why this guy's got so... I don't know why because he cares He is perfect father for exactly the reason exactly the outcome they have Project 2025 is unhinged man it's unhinged yeah that's gotta be it otherwise its like who cares but okay

CHAPTER 18 / 41 Discussion

Bannon's Three Verticals, Trump Policy Goals

Steve Bannon outlined three primary "verticals" for a potential Trump administration: sealing the border with mass deportations, addressing the $2 trillion budget deficit through tax cuts, and ending "forever wars" in Ukraine, Israel, and the South China Sea. Bannon argued that Trump's participation in the CNN debate was a service to the country to expose Biden's inability to serve as commander-in-chief.

mass deportation· budget deficit· forever wars· ukraine· taiwan

1:25:12 So let's, I just have two clips from this interview with John, Jonathan Karl the Consul in Foreign Relations guy who was the head of the Press Association in DC that White House press correspondence. And here he is bitching about or taking on Bannon. If Trump wins... When? What does it look like? How is this different from the last? President Trump hasn't signed off on these, but here's what's going to happen. I believe three verticals. First vertical seal the border and mass deportations. The second vertical is about finances. So Trump will have to deal with a budget of $2 trillion in deficits. He'll have to get tax cuts back

1:25:53 And the third is to stop these endless forever wars in Ukraine, in Israel and around the South China Sea and Taiwan. That's the program of what he's going to drive to say we have to accomplish this. So I think a whole big part of Project 2025 is actually going into the apparatus the post-constitutional leviathan and start to take apart the administrative state brick by brick. No, I understand that Jonathan, I have 900 pages right here of just what this is just project 2025 Yeah This is just this is just the Kevin this is just heritage You know this is a grift at this point Banyan had nothing to do with writing this his name is not on this everyone else Everyone's name is on this thing The first 30 pages is who did it

1:26:37 He's not in there, there is no Banyan credit for this thing. This... he is kind of grifty here! You're like, oh yeah. I think he's been grifty all along! Okay...I mean in the beginning he definitely helped Trump in 2015-2016 but you know of everything that was... It's all about him though it's always him and Carl calls him out in the second clip here I think rightfully and Bannon just lets it slide and he goes on and on. Over time Come to dislike this guy. When I interviewed Bannon back in 2018, he predicted an astounding victory for Republicans saying they would run the tables in the House instead Democrats picked up 40 seats and in 2022 He predicted a massive blowout for Republicans Instead they lost most of the competitive races across the country

1:27:38 The 2022 did not come out anywhere near what we thought. I mean all your guys lost, you had people like Carrie Lake and Masters- Can i say something? Mastriano... Let me make sure ABC News understands this This is a populist nationalist revolution It's a process We're not going to win every election So you may not lose, so you may not win in November I happen to think if you look at the numbers today, in particular... Well sure if you look at the numbers today. Hang on, hang on. Not just that, you look at the fiasco we have to do two things this real briefly We have two tracks that have to go down, right? One is for the country. This national security crisis we have with a commander-in-chief that's clearly not up to the job and a constitutional crisis that will come on the 25th amendment for that That is something has to go down this track They also have a political situation over there They're gonna try to change Biden Are you worried the Democrats will replace Biden with somebody who'll be harder to beat I was not a fan of doing this

1:28:37 debate at this time. Because I said you're given a free option, President Trump should debate who the Democratic Party nominee is not a guy named Joe Biden if it's Biden do it! If its Gretchen Whitmer do it! If it's Gavin Newsom or Michelle Obama you pick it the Democrats should pick it that's their choice But President Trump, I believe my belief is the incentive of the show that he did it for the country to show Because he took all the CNN rules on which I thought were crazy. He took the cut mic You took the no audience the rules have made it helped him they took that took two breaks Let's say this he performed magnificently By the way, the things that Banyan mentioned in the first clip about Project 2025. Who can be against that? Who can be against fixing the budget? Who can be against lower taxes? Who can be against no wars and who can be against... I don't think a single American is against the dismantling of the administrative state except for what is it 7 million people who are on the payroll in the administrative states! Yes. I'm sure they are beside themselves because you know was

Administrative State Employment, Gen Z Career Apathy

Personal observations regarding the "soul-crushing" nature of working in the government administrative state are shared, noting that many roles involve "make-work" and high salaries for long, meaningless titles. This is contrasted with a growing trend among Gen Z to reject traditional career paths. Many young people are reportedly losing faith in the system following the COVID-19 pandemic, choosing instead to focus on local communities and service-oriented work.

epa· civil service· gen z· employment· soul-crushing jobs

1:29:35 schedule F or whatever they put in place that was snuck through where you can now easily fire people in the administrative state. They're trying to make it so easy, easier. You'd always fire people and I worked in the administrative state and people got fired all the time. Did you ever get fired? No You played the system. I quit! Most people quit because it's, uh... The administration working in the out of this is just my observation and their observations are old now but they stick with you is that it's depressing to work in the administrative state

1:30:12 I mean, it was great for me because I was working during a downturn in the economy then. And I didn't realize it because I have no more knowledge now than I did then and I was living it up basically in a situation where everybody else was starving to death but there's...it's a soul-crushing job to work for the government You're working with people who a lot of it's make work, there are people that really aren't doing anything and they sit around conniving. It is very difficult and soul-crushing to work in the administrative... Nobody like anyone who says they like working in the administrative state is lying to themselves! It's much better to be out in the

1:31:01 Yeah, but you know you and I are not from this generation that was raised in the school system as it is today and where that is seen. You know that's what your poli sci degree does. I talked to the Uber driver who picked me up when he came back from Holland from San Antonio and he saying oh I had like these two people and they were... It may have been the EPA and they were out scouting for their next meeting in Hill Country. And he said she had a title that was so long I couldn't remember it, which to me meant she does nothing and making $130,000 a year. And this guy's like this is nonsense. Everyone sees it but if you're making a buck 30, you're like yeah this pretty good. I got this long title. I'm a dude. I can wear dresses whatever. You can do whatever you want

1:31:52 I mean, and of course that's not everybody. I mean it's possible that...and I do accept the possibility that we're with our audience you know luckily we have an audience as wide-ranging And so they try to keep us surprised, but we might be losing some touch with the Gen Z. But you have Gen Z people around you. So you're a little better off than I am. What I feel from Gen Z is well as we discussed just not voting not interested We're only interested in our own community We're gonna lift each other up and we're gonna find cheap places to buy food and we're gonna do our best We don't care. We've completely lost faith lost confidence COVID did that

Gen Z Job Market Struggles, Blue Wave Trend

A viral video of a Gen Z woman with two bachelor's degrees struggling to find a "decent paying job" highlights a disconnect in the current labor market. The speaker expresses a lack of "dream career" ambition, preferring a life of leisure by the beach. This reflects a broader "blue wave" trend where college graduates abandon professional fields for service jobs like bartending, which offer immediate cash tips and less corporate stress.

unemployment· bachelor's degree· bartending· lifestyle· tips

1:32:40 for sure, for sure COVID like oh these and that there's no they're not voting. Yeah I understand that but we were talking about them you know getting into the administrative state thinking it is a good job. I have a clip my last clip of this series all right Gen Z This is a woman, this clip's been going around. Yeah, I think that's right. This is a Gen Z complainer and she's done a series of these clips but this one I think was the initial one where she's... And you have to imagine her, she has kind of like a dyed red head with kind of a round face She looks very typical for certain groups with giant glasses that are too big for her face

1:33:21 that are part, you know somewhat stylish in some circles. It's in now it's in Gen Z big license. Yeah it is stylish in some circles I think it looks dumb. Hey boomer listen that's the style right now you and I have... And I know what it is I see it but here she is complaining I have two bachelor's degrees but i'm currently unemployed and i'm trying to find a job and i'm not able to find a job. I feel like if you are not currently looking for a job right now in today's job market then, you will not understand how actually hard it is to find a decent paying job, even if you have all the credentials. I have two degrees. I have experience. I have a good resume. I have it all and i'm still not able to find anything And people ask me like what do you want to do? Like what's your like dream career? What's your dream job? and honestly, I don't have one. I don't dream of working. I don't want to work

1:34:18 There's no career or job that I can think of that i would be like, yeah! I would love to do that every single day and spend more of my time there than in my home that I pay a crap ton of money for. Like... No, I don't dream of working My dream life, my dream day is to wake up by the beach or some body of water and drink my coffee and read my book. Then take a afternoon nap and then read my book inside and then have a nice dinner! That's my dream daily life but I know in order to get there I need some kind of money and monopoly money won't work. So that means I have to get a good paying job, but those are not available." Yeah so...and I only have uh..a couple sources My daughter's is really the source my stepdaughter is my daughter And one of my stepdaughters is here with us for a few months she has a knee operation and she's staying with us

1:35:09 And, you know she has a degree. Graduated from University of Arkansas and she is in what she calls all over French as the blue wave. She was doing fashion photography production in New York says I hated it. I hated it. She took some time out went to bartending school. She loves it! works, you know five days a week four days a week sometimes gets tips loves the idea that tips may not be Not be taxed You know a sly Presidential promise there from Trump. They called the blue wave like we don't want this anymore We're sick and tired of it It's it's it's a rat race, you know Let me do something in service There's a lot of that and I think that is the trend And they do go to the beach and wake up on the beach

Disease Scares, Colorado Plague Case

As public health officials monitor bird flu and rising dengue fever cases in Honduras and Malaysia, a case of the plague was reported in Colorado. While the media often uses such reports to incite fear of new lockdowns, the plague remains endemic in the western United States. Historical data shows that similar cases occurred in 2015 without causing widespread public alarm or policy changes.

1:36:00 and then go work at the bar until 2. So I think there's a trend there." Okay, kind of switching gears you know remember there's always an out for the cheating we love how about them ballots people? Gotta think on them ballots as Taraji said So what do you need for them ballots to work? Well, you need some kind of lockdown situation. Bird flu is not working the dengue although I did get some boots on the ground from multiple people about dengue in Honduras

1:36:47 Dengue numbers are up, Malaysia dengue numbers are up. But this is not totally uncommon No it's common but if you really want to scare somebody You do what Colorado does. They have not specified which specific form of the plague this case involves, but as soon as more information comes in we'll let you know.

1:37:37 Of course, the plague is endemic. Yes of course it is! It's been around forever still and you can still get the plague. Yeah in 2015 Colorado had the plague as well... Colorado actually in 2015 had the plague as well and three people died from the plague don't remember freaking out about it then no but now we can freak out about it Okay, a couple other elections before we take our break. The first one is Iran We had a runoff yesterday and we have a winner! Here's the profile of Iran's new president Reformist Massoud Pazeshkian is the winner in Iran presidential election Here what to know about Iran's new president

CHAPTER 22 / 41 Discussion

Iran Presidential Election, Masoud Pezeshkian Victory

Reformist candidate Masoud Pezeshkian, a cardiologist and former health minister, won the Iranian presidential election runoff. Pezeshkian campaigned on a platform of diplomatic engagement with the West and reviving the 2015 nuclear deal to lift economic sanctions. However, analysts note that his power remains limited under the authority of Iran's supreme leader and the clerical establishment.

1:38:18 A cardiologist by training, Pazeshkian is a relatively low-profile figure who served as Iran's health minister between 2001 and 2005 and has represented the city of Tabriz in the Iranian parliament since 2008. During his presidential campaign, Pazeshkian hinted at more diplomatic engagements with the world vowing to reopen communication channels with the West the years-long sanctions imposed on Iran lifted, although he added that the US has always shown itself to be an enemy of Iran. He also has declosed his intentions to initiate reforms in both economic and cultural domains, and vigorously defending the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and various world powers. Given this progressive outlook will he be able to put these policies into practice? So this guy seems like he might be better

UK General Election, Keir Starmer Rwanda Policy

The UK Labor Party secured a landslide victory, making Keir Starmer the new Prime Minister. One of Starmer's first acts was to declare the "Rwanda scheme" for deporting illegal immigrants "dead and buried," calling it an ineffective deterrent that cost millions without results. Meanwhile, Nigel Farage won a seat in Parliament, ensuring his populist "Reform UK" voice will have a platform during Prime Minister's Question Time.

keir starmer· nigel farage· rwanda scheme· labor party· immigration

1:39:09 He can only do so much and he is an advocate of the mullahs, so it's not gonna be that different. Well his wife is a gynecologist how can they be wrong? This guy has got to have something good going on! In the UK we have a new prime minister and thank God Nigel Farage has a seat that means that Clipse will still be still be abundant. Yes, we'll be back in business! We're very happy and we've even found a source for the PM's Question Time. And you found the source? I appreciate that. Yeah it was your beat because... It is your beat. Look at Question Time used to be regular on this show. We used to play it cause C-SPAN would play it and I could get a clip or two they were always very entertaining and these ones in Canada are even better but those are even harder to come by

1:39:59 But Prime Minister question time will now feature, it won't happen a lot but it'll happen enough that Farage will get up there and blow off some steam. the first order of events has already taken place as the new and even though it's more ceremonial than anything. And if you see the numbers, by the way is something like 60% of the Brits voted labor because they just wanted the Tories out. Yeah and 60 percent of the ones who voted less than 40%, I think at the total population voted people were just very which was predicted by Katie Hopkins in one of the clips we played some

1:40:38 months back that everyone's is apathetic. It was 40% who voted labor just to change the direction of the country didn't mean that they and I think from the numbers, I saw only 5% voted labor because they agree with labors policies Right, well this was like a classic. Here you go people here's the first thing that's gonna happen The Prime Minister was asked by a British journalist about the Rwanda scheme That is the scheme about processing and sending back people who have come here illegally across from France, northern shores of France in small embarkations made it to Britain and who then would be processed and sent on deportation flights to Rwanda. It's important to point out that nobody except one person who did it voluntarily has been sent but its cost really millions of pounds already

1:41:34 being paid by the British government to Rwanda. So what the Prime Minister was asked is, is it dead and buried now that you've been elected? Keir Starmer said and I quote the scheme was dead and buried before it started He said that it never acted as a deterrent And he pointed in fact to the record number of small boat arrivals this year and in previous years. So a very clear message that that policy, originally wanted by Boris Johnson the former Prime Minister and very much tried to be carried out by Rishi Sunak and as I said not one single person being sent out on a deportation flight because of all kinds of legal appeals... That is dead and buried and it was never a deterrent says this Labour prime minister Keir Starmer

1:42:22 Just from a perception standpoint, that people have got to hate this. Hold on a second! This I did not know...I didn't know that they had sent millions and millions of pounds to Rwanda To set the situation up and they never sent anybody there so they just threw that money away? Well, that's what this guy is saying Who knows?! I don't know! The reporter lady says it, I don't know But Britain certainly, as far as I know love the idea of getting people out because their whole street view has changed.

1:43:00 In Guilford, where I used to live! There is a Muslim mayor which is fine but then before the City Council meeting because my buddy Michelle still lives there and he's...I fear for his mental health and his physical health even. He sent me a video of the opening of this Guilford City Council cute little town with a high street And so Moola gets up and starts doing like...in Guilford That's not the culture of Britain, or it wasn't. That changed pretty rapidly so... Well to get a Muslim mayor in a place like Guilford you have to have had a lot of Muslims voting for him You start with that and and you know it's just it's a different culture And the Brits now feel in the minority which they likely even are

1:43:54 You know, people may disagree with me but I'm generalizing that people are not happy. And it's not like that's London you know? It's 70 miles away from London or something like that maybe less. It's an hour and 15 minutes by train which the stockbroker better be. That's a long way Now, Sacramento where I live is about an hour and 15 minutes by train. So in general Europe is okay because we have the European soccer competition going on right now The Netherlands now in the semifinals so people just all loving it they're all into soccer as long as there's soccer everybody's happy

Marine Le Pen Interview, European Patriotism

Marine Le Pen challenged Christiane Amanpour's use of the "far-right" label during an interview, describing her party instead as "patriots" who defend national sovereignty. Le Pen argued for a "Europe of Nations" that respects democratic decisions rather than a "super technocratic structure" led by figures like Ursula von der Leyen. She emphasized that her movement seeks to redirect the EU toward collaborative projects like Airbus rather than centralized blackmail.

marine le pen· christiane amanpour· far-right· european union· patriotism

1:44:34 However, in France things have changed. Before you leave Britain I do have a couple of things to say... Oh okay! Which is Starmer who many think was MI6 Yes well he wasn't he was in charge of the Jimmy Savile investigation which he buried yeah There's a lot of documentation for that, but his potential for being MI6 is when you see him and his very cute wife. No I have not seen her Take a look at Starmer and his wife, and you look and say ah! Spook couple. Isn't it interesting that the Dutch Prime Minister is also a former spook? And he oversaw many pedophile cases including in the Justice Department that were just kind of swept away The Demink affair, Rolodex affair There ya go All these things just kinda... So that could be very bad

1:45:36 Who knows? I mean, I don't want to point fingers at any PDF files. But i'm just saying now I go to France and Marie Le Pen had a nice sit down and I like this because she did something that that I've been tracking for a while the term far right Everything in Europe is far right. Far right this, far right that, far right Geert Wilders, far right Le Pen, far right AFD, far right, far right, far right, so she sits down... She shits down? She sits down! What?! She shits down I can't help it! There you go! Yeah but the heart is full of it. It's the beginning. That's how it starts. She sits down with Christine Amanpour

1:46:20 And Amanpour lays it on her and Christine Le Pen, not Christine, Marie Le Pen pushes back against the elite globalist news lady. The fact that your party did so well in the European elections and so did Giorgio Maloney's party and so did AFD I mean you know AFD as you know a little bit like their former National Front is very scary The fact that the far right is becoming a very, very powerful force in Europe. And who knows? Maybe now with all that's going on in the United States Donald Trump might win a second term. How do you see Europe

1:46:59 First of all, I strongly dispute the term far-right which in your country refers to small groups that are extremely radical and violent. If you like the equivalent... You don't think you're far right? The equivalent of what we are in the United States is between the center right and a center left with regards to ideas So I think this... You're kidding me, right? Yes. Yes, I'm telling you very honestly. I think this use of the term far-right carries a stigma and is very pejorative. It does not correspond to what we are and not at all to what the far-right is in the United States

1:47:41 That's the first thing to say. Secondly, we can't put everyone in the same boat. For example in Europe we distanced ourselves from the AFD party because were in total disagreement with a number of their statements so together with Mrs Maloney and with our differences too, are what we call patriots. So she pushes back on the far right to... And you look at Amanpour's face like you're joking right? You're joking! Why are you having a laugh?! You're joking! You're joking right? This is not true right I mean everyone knows it's far-right. Far-right lady you crazy! She could not believe it her disbelief on that rather bulbous head of hers was funny

1:48:26 And then she says, hey look we're patriots. Oh! Trigger word please explain In other words we defend the existence and the power of nations within the European Union because nations are the expression of the French people people. When the European Union takes on certain roles without consulting anyone, it is no longer democratic. We are defenders of nations We want a Europe of nations, a Europe that respects the decisions of the people and not a super technocratic structure such as it exists today. And that's the path we want to follow. A Europe of nations that is respectful, that leads projects

1:49:12 A Europe that doesn't restrict, that doesn't threaten, that doesn't blackmail when it comes to subsidies. Because that's not our vision Our Europe is the Europe of Airbus Forgive me its a competitor It's the Europe of Ariane It's not the Europe of Madame Vondelaine And so we will fight within Europe To redirect Europe in the direction That we want There you go Good job Marie Good job. She's always been very sensible with her arguments and Amanpour is just an idiot With that I'd like to thank you for your courage saying the morning to you, the man who put the sea in the flying car! Say hello to my friend on the other end, the one, the only Mr John C... Good morning to you Mr Adam Curry

Costco Magazine Podcasting Article, No Agenda Omission

The "Costco Connection" magazine published an article titled "The Power of Podcasting" but failed to mention podcasting pioneer Adam Curry or veteran tech journalist John C. Dvorak. This omission led to a humorous critique of Costco's editorial standards and the declining quality of their rotisserie chicken packaging. The hosts noted that their independence allows them to criticize corporations like Costco without fear of losing ad revenue.

1:51:30 And, and of course there's lots of benefits to these modern podcast apps including when we publish if you can't listen live. You'll get the notification within 90 seconds and so that's always a bonus because we literally are on the modern apps way before any of the legacy apps it's just a fact because they don't want to participate in it. It's a fact! That's right We run value for value here at the NOAA Agenda Show. In October, it will be 17 years. I was a little dismayed. You know you certainly way before me but I have been a Costco member goodness for at least...I want to say 14-13 years maybe? Yeah longer than that. I was a Costco member before they joined with Price Club

1:52:21 Before the merger. I pre-merger Costco member and yeah, we love Costco you know except for the rubber fruit we love Costco and And a number of people have pointed out to me that the Costco You know Costco connection which is their magazine which I read I read Costco connection It's like what's going on? it's for members membership play thing, you know they have An article The Power Of Podcasting! Where is it? The power of podcasting! And it's like the podcasts have exploded in popularity since 2004 when the term was first introduced in an article in The Guardian. Statista dot com predicts the number of podcast listeners worldwide will reach 504 point 9 million this year

1:53:15 Producing podcasts, a now 20-year old format takes planning persistence and vision. Costco members in the podcast... It is hard! Costco hits a grind. Costco members in the podcast space share how and why they started and what they love about the medium until they have all these members of Costco but missing is John C. Dvorak and Adam Curry I find this to be a canard of epic proportion. I agree, and it would even take myself out of the picture because you invented it the whole process for all practical purposes and genuine purposes for any purpose yes and you think that they track you down cause its not that hard to figure out where are how you are where you at your... And look in the database!

1:54:10 You just look it up and there's adam at curry.com, I mean doesn't take a genius to figure that out They have my credit card! Did you get a call? No! Nothing That is very disappointing, i think im going to rescind my membership You've always been saying that Well if they're this sloppy- If when I took you to Costco over here They won't take my card, I quit. That's what it was that they wouldn't take American Express or no? Or the only one that was something we know at the time they'd only taken me right right there wouldn't take Visa or MasterCard now they only take something man I don't know why did it what it is but they keep changing yeah well I've ever seen and I'm mad at them once you have a debit card to take that this is basically a cash card so just use that shows me if their dad that's where that's where your former wife bought her first camera

1:54:59 I don't remember that and believe me yeah Nikon believe me it wasn't her doing the buying. I remember it, I never got thanked. I'm the one who recommended the camera she bought it It wasn't her doing the buying. She used a Nikon for awhile quickly changed to a Canon like alright everybody well my last and best wife shops at Costco And she was very perturbed. She's a podcaster too you know That's true, she is a podcaster. Does she get any props? No! No no no... Yeah I think this is very careless which makes you wonder what the quality of the magazine... People should bitch... How about the quality of food? Send a letter to the editor of Costco Magazine saying they overlooked the obvious. How about the quality of the food now I question it. Rubber avocados... The chicken has lost its touch Everybody is bitching about the chicken

1:55:50 because they changed the packaging. Yeah, no that's you because it gets all moist and... No no now there are articles you can look at. You look it up! Chicken in a bag is no good Anyway value for value means that we can freely talk about Costco and talk them down because we don't take any money from corporations We don't take any... Let alone Costco I wonder if these people have sponsorships? You gotta wonder I wonder if they're talking, hey you know. Think of all the times if we had gotten paid you could have talked about their great wine, the Easter eggs...I could have talked about so many different things I've gotten at Costco which is probably what these other podcasters do. I'm just thinking! I don't want to point any fingers but it could be some kind of deal

No Agenda Art Generator, AI Prompt Jockeys

The podcast's visual identity is supported by a community of artists who submit work to the No Agenda Art Generator. Recent episodes have featured AI-generated art from "prompt jockeys" like Commissar Blogger, whose "bug-eyed dog" piece was selected for the July 4th episode. The hosts discussed the merits of different artistic styles, ranging from traditional digital painting to high-dimensionality AI renders.

no agenda art· ai art· commissar blogger· matthew dropko· darren o'neill

1:56:41 That could be just a quid pro quo. Yeah, but what you want is you want people who are honest and just talk about stuff they like or don't like whenever they feel like it and that's us because we have decided to not have listeners We don't want listeners. We want producers if you're not a producer What are you doing? If you're listening in not supporting us whereby at least hitting someone in the mouth getting him to listen Organizing a meetup Maybe doing some art. Oh boy, do we love our artists? Our artists are so on top of everything they go to no agenda Art generator comm all of these pieces of art are used by Dreb Scott in the chapters on those modern podcast apps You see how we've built a whole empire out of value for value and we thank the one the only comic strip blogger

1:57:25 He doesn't win often that much. Oh, he's on the list of leaderboards! Yeah but ever since he went full AI it kind of got annoying because it was always the same but there was something about the art that we chose for our July 4th episode, episode 1674 titled We're Working There was something about the dog's bug eyes in this thing. Yeah, we both thought that was funny That just made it perfect and we like to do a traditional piece of art for some of these big holidays so obviously We were looking for flags. We were looking for fireworks And we debated quite some time over

1:58:08 Let's see. I'm scrolling down here. Well, I like the Matthew drop go did some great pieces Yeah you'd like the cheesecake those good cheesecake. You know those all it was the same thing It was all AI there's no although it was that well done and I liked a particularly liked the redhead But we almost chose pickle surprise with America's birthday Yeah, that was a it was close. It was as the eagle with the hat on which is funny to fly I think that's what the runner-up is that we go with the head off and there's because he Was wearing a stupid hat that made they did kind of funny But there was like it wasn't quite I don't know you didn't like that but I liked a piece more than you did Because you didn't like to dim it the lack. I think it was the lack of dimensionality whereas the AI piece had a lot of it

1:58:58 And it was also Slicker, basically. There was something about the bug-eyed dog... Yeah it was good! Bug eyed dog was good. We discussed how dogs don't like Fourth of July. I also kind of liked the sad ice cream girl but that wasn't really a star. That was a Darren O'Neal. It's just something. But it was a Darren O'Neill throwaway Yeah, we wanted a happy piece of art and the comics are bloggers He's a prompt jockey of extraordinary proportions. He's gotten really good at it. You've gotten good at so We thank the artists you can Enjoy all of that art as I said in the modern podcast apps and the chapter images if you're driving using CarPlay or Android Auto? It'll switch while you're driving So beware because you just might veer off the road with laughter

Climate Change Peer-Reviewed Studies, Urban Heat Island Effect

Three new peer-reviewed papers published in major scientific journals challenge the consensus on man-made global warming. The studies, led by astrophysicist Dr. Willie Soon and a team of 40 scientists, suggest that 40% of observed warming is due to the "urban heat island effect" rather than CO2. The researchers argue that the remaining warming can be explained by natural solar activity cycles tracked by NASA.

NTD I don't typically come in with NTD clips that is... NTD? NTD yes this is normally your beat But I came across a piece here, which is split into a couple of shorter clips. Although I don't know if NTD will give this particular news item the exposure that it needs

2:16:00 But it is nice to be able to point to peer-reviewed studies that prove the climate change narrative is one big hoax. So Alex, we've been told for a long time the climate change emergency has settled science? It looks like it's no longer settled... What happened? Well there's a series of three new peer reviewed papers published in major prestigious scientific journals just over the last month or so and And taken together, they completely undermine the alleged scientific consensus on man-made global warming. One of them found that about 40% of the observed warming can be explained away using the urban heat island effect

2:16:38 To try to summarize that, basically a lot of these thermometers were put out there in an open field in a rural area. A city was built up around it and so it gets warmer obviously not because there's global warming but because there is a city around the thermometer The rest of the warming they found can easily explained using changes in solar activity that NASA has been tracking meticulously for many decades And so right now these are in the peer reviewed literature. And instead of responding to this, you've got the climate establishment going on Twitter and saying these guys are basically poopoo heads and clowns and deniers. So at this point you wonder do they have a scientific response? Because if they did, they would probably write a peer reviewed paper to refute the ones that just undermine their claims. So that's the headline. Now we can dive a little bit deeper into this peer-reviewed literature and who is part of it

2:17:27 Well, how did they get them in? It's hard to get a peer reviewed paper when it comes to these topics. What was the kind of hole in the wall that brought this about so to speak? You're right. It is very hard to get any peer-reviewed studies in the journals because there's almost like an iron wall blocking this and we got some insight into this during the climate gate scandal in 2009 when a bunch of emails were hacked and leaked to the public showing a bunch of so called climate scientists, in fact some of the leading so called climate scientists conspiring to hide their data from other researchers, conspiring to hide the decline in global temperatures and conspiring to silence any scientists who wouldn't go along with the narrative. Keep them out of journals keep them out TV media interviews etc as what happened is these papers were just really solid. These three journals that published them they're not known for being climate denier publications but the science was very sound. They did one special issue in the journal Climate for example had some guest editors including Dr Ned Nichol

2:18:27 of, who I wrote about back in 2017. They looked at this and said wow! This is correct as best we can tell so the peers looked at it they accepted it and you know this a really prestigious team Josh were talking about almost 40 scientists from around the world The lead author Dr Willie Soon one of the worlds top astrophysicists if not THE top astrophysicist he used to be at Harvard-Smithsonian You've got Ronan Connolly These are very, very well established. Very prestigious highly credentialed experts and it's good to finally see some alternative viewpoints published in the peer-review literature I think the dam is finally cracking Josh

2:19:05 The dam is cracking. Yes, the dam is cracking we have experts who are now poor What effect are we seeing now that some pretty credible people are stepping forward on this? That's exactly right and I reached out to a lot of scientists for my article in the epic times about this and over And over again, you know, I'd love to comment but I can't because my funding is gonna be jeopardized My grants gonna be jeopardize You know if I get associated with saying that these papers are important. I'm gonna be labeled, and I won't be able to participate anymore in scientific debates. So there's still a very real sense that that is going on but when you look at the scientists behind these papers for example Dr Willie Soon these are people who have now moved away from the major institutions Dr Willie Soon ended his time at Harvard-Smithsonian last year and they're now working independently so they have an organization called SERES

2:19:52 That's the real issue, right? Any scientist who comes out and says hey the UN is not telling the truth. The federal government is not telling the truth their grants are going to dry up if they're not tenured they're gonna be at risk of losing their job but when you take a bunch of scientists who are completely independent who don't need federal grants we don't need to participate with the UN have a lot more freedom and I think that's what's going on here There you go. That will go nowhere, of course but at least we heard it. Absolutely nowhere! At least we heard it... You can play this stuff till hell freezes over and nothing's gonna change. Mark it down, mark it down. Yep that's right money talks, money talk So I have some kind of funny AI clips. I have one AI clip. Paul let's go with yours first Well my AI clip is disconcerting

CHAPTER 30 / 41 Discussion

Global AI Patent Wars, Sam Altman Revenue Model

United Nations data reveals that China is filing six times more generative AI patents than the United States, led by companies like ByteDance. Meanwhile, a 2019 clip of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman resurfaced, in which he admitted the company had "no idea" how it would eventually generate revenue. Altman's current strategy involves a "soft promise" to investors that a future Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will figure out its own return on investment.

china· patents· generative ai· sam altman· openai

2:20:43 It's about the patents. Here we go. China is filing six times more patents in generative AI inventions than the US, that's according to data from the United Nations what? The US filed a little over 6,000 over the same period. Chinese patent applications range from autonomous driving to publishing to document management. Among the top applications are ByteDance, the Chinese-owned owner of TikTok plus Microsoft which backs the developer of ChatGPT. South Korea Japan and India were ranked third fourth and fifth respectively with India growing at the fastest rate

2:21:44 Now, are these patents or these global patents they've filed? They must be. Yeah oh yeah! Well so that seems like there's still a lot of litigation ahead in the AI to AI wars... Invest in lawyers yes. Oh goodness this is gonna go nowhere So I have two clips The first one it kind of is a throwback This is five years ago when Sam Altman, who already then had that annoying cadence, that annoying explanation for things was at the Strictly VC conference. And of course he'd already raised a lot of money for OpenAI which at the time I think might have already transitioned to a for-profit company or least part of it and so you have this typical... It's on YouTube

2:22:35 Typical VC partner lady girl who's asking the questions and I just thought it was interesting where how he explained. How they thought they would get a return on the investment for the investors? Which to date, I think the last numbers we heard which we parlayed from CNBC was $50 billion has gone in and about three has come out so far. So yeah seems like a good luck getting your money. If you can even just get 100 billion invested then we'll get the money! Yeah more that's the old joke You know they guys said driving around as watermelon trucks And he's selling these watermelons and he says

2:23:18 He sells them for two bucks a piece and he drives around and he says, well how you doing on the watermelon business? Well I'm losing $1.00 on every watermelon. I'm losing like $100 in every load! He says oh well how are you going to fix that? He says I'm gonna get more trucks. We'll make it up in volume. Alright so here's Altman. You know Google has business units and it's got objectives. And it just seems like OpenAI is so sort of amorphous, but it is a business. So I'm just wondering- I just love terms like this. Oh yes we're really amorphous! What does that even mean? What does amorphous mean? It doesn't mean anything... This is VC talk. VC gobbledygook. We're very... We're a startup- Mumbo jumbo. We are an amorphous startup you know thats uh.. Yes mumbo jumbo

2:24:09 OpenAI is so sort of amorphous. But it is a business, so I'm just wondering like eventually Is the idea to kind of like license technologies? Will you have customers and you're gonna be customizing algorithms for them or how's it gonna work You know the honest answer is we have no idea We-we have never made any revenue. We've no current plans to make revenue with no idea How he may one day generate revenue We have made a soft promise to investors that once we've built this sort of generally intelligent system, basically we will ask it to figure out a way to generate an investment return for you. It sounds like an episode of Silicon Valley. It really does I get it. You can laugh. That's all right But it is what I actually believe is going to happen so

2:25:00 There aren't many things like this where they're so difficult to reason about and so powerful that if you can build it. Like, there's that joke I actually think is very funny which is step one do this thing, step two do this thing, question mark question mark profit? You know, I think if AGI is on the table that's actually okay. And if we have to take like you know one 1,000th of one percent of a value that we create and return it to investors and then figure out how to share the rest sort of equally among in the world? That feels okay." Yeah well that's what he's doing! 50 billion in 3 billion out He's keeping to his promises good luck investors So then comes the news... Of Moshi Moshi Have you heard of Moshi Moshi

CHAPTER 31 / 41 Discussion

Moshi Moshi AI Demo, French Language Model

A French AI startup funded by Eric Schmidt and other billionaires debuted "Moshi Moshi," a multimodal voice bot intended to compete with OpenAI. During a live demonstration on France 24, the AI produced a bizarre hallucination about Joe Biden eating ice cream and "making out with a girl." This failed demo highlighted the ongoing issues with "hallucinations" and inappropriate content generation in large language models.

moshi moshi· mistral· eric schmidt· france 24· hallucinations

2:25:48 No, I have not. So MoshiMoshi you know France has their own AI large language model Mistral which actually it's open source actually use the mistral model at home for what it's useful for you know when I need to write project 2026 I'll use the mistral model So there's another company in France and they have developed MoshiMoshi, 300 million dollars. Very modest investment in this company only 300 million dollars holy crap! Three hundred million dollars that is a lot of money. Yeah that's considered modest which is ludicrous so

2:26:32 The one thing that OpenAI had was that demo. And of course, you know we also... which was phonied up because of the latency was chopped out the latency and it was obviously predetermined like oh wow it looks like you're going to do a presentation of some sort with these professional cameras are you you're rocking an AI hoodie is in open ai demonstration while this thing is genius its multimodal So, but the demo was reasonable. You know most of these demos really suck and you know Microsoft did their demo which they then had to later no a Google did there there in which they'd later had to admit of Gemini that they had cut out you know seconds and seconds of latency so the French come out They come out with Moshi Moshi And they give it to The France 24 technology editor

2:27:28 You will not believe this demo. Test it out. I can welcome on set Peter O'Brien, Pete. This is already the setup is great. We are going against open AI France's better. Vive la France! Vive la France we have a beta for cheaper. Introduce us to Moshi Hi Alison so Moshi is the product of a non-profit Qtai which was founded in November by three billionaires Savine Niel, Vrodov Sade and Eric Schmidt formerly of Google

2:28:08 Now, it's really one of France's two big hopes when it comes to AI. The other one is Mistral the startup that has been valued about 6 billion euros since it was founded last April. Now there's less pressure on Q-Tie. It's a nonprofit and it has a more meagre shall we say budget of 300 million euros but they have set themselves a high standard and at a big task which is to they say create artificial general intelligence That's AI. That's meant to, theoretically at least be smarter than a human being Now we talked to the CEO Patrick Perez a few months ago and he said that the way they were going to do this was by really focusing on something called multimodal AI. That's AIs that can do many different things at once And we've just got the first proofs of their labor out this week which is Moshi, a research prototype that you can talk to It's a voice bot I've been having a few different conversations with it Take a listen to a snippet of one of them

2:29:05 OK, so that's the setup. It's multimodal which by the way I think you and I are both multimodal it's amazing how multi modal we are. I'm not sure what that means? It means you can understand video and pictures and text and audio were multi-modal So Oh! You mean like normal people Yes like people Now what you see on screen looks like HAL 2000 Yeah of course That is what you want You will not believe the demo that this meager $300 million company allowed them to show on France 24. Stand by!

2:29:47 Who's your friend? I don't remember his name. I don't remember who it was, but he said that his roommate was Joe Biden and he said...I think he said he was eating ice cream before you went to bed To be fair that sounds a lot like Joe Biden He loves ice cream Yeah! I think he was saying that he was eating ice cream before he went to bed And then he went into the room and there was a girl there Oh yeah what was happening? And she was eating ice cream when they started making out The girl started making out with Joe Biden. I think that's what it was Are you kidding me? So that female voice was the AI, yes But then what was it talking about That...that It was talking about this guy's friend who is roommate with Joe Biden and Joe Biden was eating an ice cream And then a girl came in not woman A girl came in eating ice cream and then Joe Biden and the girls started making out

2:30:46 So the demonstration was of a hallucination? Yes. To say the least A pedophile hallucination! And a ped- well, at least they're getting some of it right Man oh man I was like that's your demo?! That's pretty pathetic It's unbelievable That was actually on TV That was on TV yes I was just going any further or they cut it off or what happened. It wasn't funny after that, that was the funniest bit yeah they were like oh well Joe Biden you know he always eats ice cream and makes out with girls what in the world is happening with AI although it's probably the most accurate all has to do with input the most accurate a very accurate

CHAPTER 32 / 41 Discussion

Google Carbon Emissions, AI Energy Consumption

Google's greenhouse gas emissions have surged 48% since 2019, primarily due to the massive energy requirements of data centers powering artificial intelligence. This increase threatens the company's goal of reaching "net zero" emissions by 2030. Tech executives argue that while AI increases energy use, it will eventually provide the tools necessary to solve climate change, a claim met with skepticism by environmental analysts.

google· carbon emissions· data centers· net zero· artificial intelligence

2:31:39 Then of course they're finally catching on a little bit about the issues with AI. Here's the BBC. Now we hear a lot about AI or artificial intelligence and its possible impact now it seems that the global greenhouse gas emissions of the US technology giant Google were nearly 50% higher last year than in 2019 That's because of the increasing amounts of energy needed by its computer servers, fueled by the explosive growth of artificial intelligence. This will make achieving so-called net zero emissions by 2030 significantly more difficult." So this is a narrative that is going on in Europe and UK that is very annoying to Google. They sent out one of their... I think she's a scholar? Amanda Smith? Do you know Amanda Smith who used to work at Google?

2:32:29 Amanda Smith, the name rings a bell but I don't know that I can say it. Well she tries to combat the narrative Google's greenhouse gas emissions are skyrocketing Yes so three years ago Google set an ambitious plan to address climate change by going net zero by 2030 but its latest environmental report shows its nowhere near to meeting those goals Google's emissions surged 48% compared to 2019 and increased 13% year over year in 2023. The tech giant says it is because of the energy needed by its data centres exacerbated by the growth of artificial intelligence, and that its net zero emissions goals are now quote extremely ambitious

2:33:07 Google's report also reveals large global disparities in the impacts of its data centres. Most of the ones in Europe and the Americas, for example get the majority of their energy from carbon-free sources unlike centres in the Middle East Asia and Australia. Tech companies also make the case that AI is not just a negative force when it comes to climate change but that it is also helping to address it. Take a listen to this expert We have to understand that if we are using more energy to do something That energy, we want to push for it to come from renewable and low carbon sources as much as possible. But we also have to ask the question what's the benefit we're getting from this data center or from this use of AI? Is it benefiting humanity? Is that making our lives better? Is it making our society more equitable? So it's just important to understand AI can be a force that increases emissions and I can be a force that decreases emissions

2:34:05 It's up to us as humans to watch what we're doing with it. And let's stay with the theme of emissions, General Motors facing a pretty hefty fine. That's right federal officials... Sorry about that, that shouldn't have been on there So yeah so they say well but you know the benefits of AI will far outweigh the killing of the earth and using our resource this is from the same company That installs a thermostat in your house that turns down your air conditioner or your heat to save the world yet They're blowing up the world so called with their data centers This is because like they people bitch about climate change and then they jump in there private jets It's yes only on a much much larger scale. Yes, much larger scale Yeah, yeah, they put themselves in a bind with this. Yeah

CHAPTER 33 / 41 Discussion

Viktor Orban Peace Mission, Putin Meeting in Moscow

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban conducted a "peace mission," meeting with both President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv and President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Orban, currently holding the rotating EU presidency, questioned Putin on existing peace plans and the possibility of a short-term ceasefire to stop the "dying of young people." EU leaders criticized the trip, stating Orban had no official mandate to negotiate on behalf of the bloc.

viktor orban· vladimir putin· volodymyr zelenskyy· moscow· ceasefire

2:34:53 They were big shots. Oh, we're going to stop and we're going to have zero emissions of neutral blah blah by 2030 then they jump on the AI bandwagon it just sucks up juice like there's no tomorrow. And what are the benefits? We get artists now that can do AI art and okay well that's... Yeah well they're getting better I mean we know that Joe Biden eats ice cream and makes out with girls! Yeah we got that part but we knew that already Yeah, didn't need to burn all that fossil fuel for that. Here this is a little series of clips here and this is regard you know we still have a couple of wars going on which no one seems to talk about because yeah

2:35:39 Kamala Harris, Biden Trump AI You know people young people are dying dying on the Russian side dying on the Ukrainian side Just dying hundreds of thousands not a single video. Really do you see that? I mean I get it from From military sources and they'll send me like a signal or telegram its gruesome It's so gruesome. See these young people just dead dead, dismembered. Yeah they're killing out the gene pool of the Ukrainian men! But you don't see that there's no reality of war in mainstream media No reality if they should really... If you want to end it do stuff like that or if you want to end it how about making peace

2:36:28 Well, that's exactly what Viktor Orban... Oh my goodness. He is the Trump of Europe! Viktor Orban, the president of Hungary who now assumes the presidency of the European Council he went... What? He went to have a chat with Putin. Oh no! The Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on the heels of Orban's trip to Ukraine. Putin received Orban at the Kremlin and said he was ready to discuss so-called nuances of peace proposals to end his war in Ukraine

2:37:05 Hungary just took over the EU's rotating presidency and the visit is being heavily criticized by EU leaders who say Orban has no mandate to speak for the bloc. Orban has been critical of the EU... Hold on a second! So meanwhile, van der Luyen who was when she was running this show which still she's still queen Yes She is floating around doing all kinds of stuff without a mandate Yeah including actual mandating of vaccinations Yeah, and doing deals with Pfizer and spending money that she wasn't allowed to do. But this... Okay I just thought I'd throw that in make sure we remember that So the reporter that's about to come in it doesn't come across quite as good This is Deutsche Welle Doesn't come in quite as good but she has a

2:37:55 sneering eye-rolling kind of you know it yeah you know the kind that I'm talking about your body has no mandate to speak for the block or bond has been critical of the EU for its reluctance to pressure Ukraine into negotiations with Russia well President Putin and Prime Minister Orban have just addressed a joint press conference, and our correspondent Emily Scherbin in Riga has been keeping a close eye on that. She's in Riga for some reason I don't know what that has to do with anything but she is in Riga. And Emily what did the two leaders say? Well there was it seems like there was real focus on in their talks

2:38:32 on Ukraine and on the potential peace process there. Putin repeated his claim that Russia has always been, and still is open for diplomatic negotiations to end fighting. He portrayed Ukraine as the stumbling block there and as he called them Ukraine's Western sponsors who he blamed for basically air quotes. Oh, I roll smirk air quotes. Oh no! So it so what happened is... Wait wait this was France 24 or DW? DW Deutsche Welle of course. So what he did is he got a reasonably regular plane I think a seven looked like a 737 and he flew first to meet with Zelenskyy and then

2:39:48 They did some trickery so that he could fly out of there and then flew over Poland, and then you know he did a U-turn. And then he went to Moscow before anyone knew it was already landing in Moscow. He didn't yet... You know this had to do with all this covert stuff to get over there. On the plane—and yeah, this is just a regular plane it's in the plane—there's like like a YouTuber dude or a podcaster who literally has one of those Rode wireless mics, you know kind of the big square ones? Yeah. On a stick! And he's in there interviewing Orban and it was like a 30-minute interview and I had to pull a couple of clips from him. That is pretty creative Very creative and he starts off by saying well why are you doing this?! To make peace is a Christian action

2:40:38 It's a Christian attitude based action because if you would like to approach the peace on the political way, you start to become more and more bureaucratic. What kind of negotiation authority do you have? What the council will say about the high foreign policy representation of council we say Mr Borrell how to you know so it's getting more and more complicated. So if he would like to behave motivated by moral points and pieces of moral issues. So you have to prepare yourself spiritually, so that's what I have done to make a decision knowing that bad reaction will come from the West and Brussels whatsoever but

2:41:22 being convinced that this is the only way and this is the duty I have to do now because I remain the only Western leader, I'm the only Western leader now who can have a chance to talk at the same time with Kiev and Moscow. All the others created a situation when they had no chance to directly communicate with the two main actors especially with the Russians So here's this horrible, horrible guy who invokes the God card like blessed are the peacemakers. Like oh you know I gotta go make some peace! I'm uniquely positioned to do this so... Our roving reporter with his mic on a stick has three questions. So my first purpose was to put the questions directly, three questions basically The first president What do you think about the peace plans which are already on the table? We know what the Ukrainians are thinking what Americans are thinking but

2:42:19 global peace meeting, but what is your position on that? I love this guy. He's just like hey Putin! What's your position on that?! What do you think!? You know what everyone else thinks... normal, such a normal kind of good thing to do. that real negotiations cannot happen without the involvement of both parties. So whatever they are doing without him, it means nothing which is quite logical anyway. The second he was very clear that they have already reacted to the first Ukrainian position and proposal which happened 2022 April

2:43:17 And what the reaction was in a document of the Russians to that is still relevant. So on that basis, they are still ready to communicate and negotiate and so on. On the Chinese plan, Chinese-Brazilian plan he said that they consider everything even that one. That was the first thing. So the 2022 agreement that Boris Johnson went into stop is still on the table? I think that's kind of interesting to know. So this is the podcaster talking? No, that's Orban talking! That's...that's Orban He's-I misstated it He's the one who asked Putin three questions and he's telling us what really went down All Deutsche Welle gives is, you don't represent us dude

2:44:14 So, now he continues with the other answers to his questions for Putin. My second question was President, how do you see the chance to have a short limited ceasefire earlier than the real negotiations on peace can start? And he said that he's not optimistic on that here. You know, Zelensky said that he's not optimistic because the Russians would use it against the Ukrainians. Putin said that the Ukrainians would use it against Russia. And what did you say to him? I said let's consider...I understand your argument but think about it every day is important because we are under the pressure of the time because the dying young people but at least think about it don't

2:45:07 Throw it away. Just think about it next turn we can continue and the third question was I raised that President do you have a vision? or even a plan how the security architecture of Europe will look like when the war is over. So not just to concentrate on today, but how the future which could be the surrounding and arrangement for one or two generations of our kids and grandkids so what is your plan? And I said we have a detailed plan So we know how we imagine the relationship between Russia and European Union, and the West. And how we should set it up! It's too early to speak about it but they are ready to cause harm on anybody with that...on that." So the final clip is he going to say this is what I achieved and it seems like Putin may even be open

2:46:05 and some NATO expansion or some changes. I mean your mission this week is a case study in surprise, you have totally wrong-footed the European Union some of your colleagues have twittered they have commented on that there was a huge reaction in the media what is your essential takeaway from these two meetings are we closer to peace What is your assessment of the results of these two meetings? Let's first reaction on the comments. So, guys I understand that you are not used to that kind of behavior of the rotating president of the European Union but if we consider this issue from a bureaucratic eyeglass and bureaucratic approach nothing will happen

2:46:57 Because peace cannot be generated by bureaucrats. It's impossible! Okay, bureaucrats are useful they have to work high representative head of the commission and so on European institution bureaucratic good but it is not enough First we have to understand that peace will not borne by itself peace something which must be done. Many people have to work for it and on it if you don't do that there will be no peace! If we would like to change the bet for good, we have to do something this is the first and when we realize that we have to do something It cannot be bureaucratic, it must be political because only political leaders can manage to find a way The shortest way to the peace So what is the first step? First step is reopen

2:47:45 the diplomatic relationship and reopen the communication channel. That's happened today I think this guy can get something done if they don't kill him well he's obviously aware of the problems with him getting killed or he wouldn't have taken that circumvention tour through Poland to get his jet into Russia yeah so he's not an idiot Interesting. I don't know what to make of that, but okay... Well, I think what we make of it is that the media and the bureaucracy as he says they don't want peace they want war! They just want to continue war

CHAPTER 34 / 41 Discussion

Ukraine Natural Resources, Lithium Deposits

Reports from Deutsche Welle suggest that the ongoing conflict in Ukraine is partly driven by the country's vast natural resources, including lithium, oil, and rare earth metals valued at $20 trillion. These deposits are critical for the production of electric vehicle batteries and smartphones. Analysts suggest that both Russia and Western alliances are vying for control of these "spoils of war" buried beneath the battlefield.

ukraine· lithium· natural resources· rare earth metals· nato

2:48:24 Well, the media likes war. It sells papers... It's ratings I know it's ratings But even though they're not taking advantage of full advantage of it so there's not even milking it as well as they could So that makes you wonder what is wrong with them like idiots They've thrown money away You know who their overlords are And so the only people really benefiting isn't even the media Is the arms makers And Deutsche Welle uncloaked a little bit about something, this is short. About something we already knew of course what is really at play here. Russia's war on Ukraine has raged on now for over two years and the cost to both sides have been immense one of the possible spoils however victory could also be what is in the ground

2:49:13 Ukraine has huge deposits of lithium. That's an important metal for batteries that power electric cars or smartphones." Fighting near the Ukrainian village of Khodorhovo earlier this year, above the ground towns that have seen dozens of tank battles since the war began What you don't see is the hundreds of millions of dollars of lithium that geologists say it's likely underground Ukraine has significant deposits of natural resources that could make Russia's war financially pay off in addition to lithium There are significant oil gas metal ores rare earth and precious metals buried beneath the soil potentially worth more than 20 trillion dollars

2:49:55 20 trillion. Well, I find that hard to believe number hard to believe but if there's housing and all the rest on top it's probably a good idea to have a war where you wipe out the housing without having to bring in the bulldozers and you without having them to evict people oh you know you had to move sort of because we can there's a lithium mine right under you that by the way your part owner of because you owned mineral rights to the property in many countries and well too bad you've been killed. I just love how they make it look like that's what Putin is after! Putin can go get from China, it's what YOU'RE after The European Union is after it The Western nations, the Western alliance NATO They're after that They already took all of the farmland It's like come on

Ozempic Blindness Side Effects, NAION Study

A new study has linked popular weight loss drugs Ozempic and Wegovy to a rare form of blindness known as NAION (non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy). The condition, described as an "eye stroke," causes sudden and painless vision loss due to restricted blood flow to the optic nerve. Diabetic patients taking semaglutide were found to be four times more likely to develop the condition than those not on the medication.

2:50:46 But then yeah, we need it. We may need it more than Russia does Yeah They're not showing the dead and Russia's not like a big lithium operation you show where dead kids on TV That'll get people thinking and start to drive ya and alone shoe in rubble now that's the best yeah Rubble shoe and mud Shoe and rubble and mud Preferably with a foot still in it. That gives people's attention! Hey, did you hear the latest side effect of Wigovi and Ozempic and other weight loss drugs? GLP-1 drug soon to be on Medicare. Yeah, makes you blind

2:51:26 The weight loss drugs Ozempic and Wigovy are being linked to a rare form of blindness. A new study found patients taking those drugs at higher risk of developing the condition which is caused by a loss in blood flow to the optic nerve, but scientists say more research is needed to determine if the drugs actually cause the eye condition. The drug's maker says patient safety is top priority and it's taking this study seriously. Oh yeah! We're all over it so this condition was called NON? which you spell N-A-I-O-N, nine? Nine. I can't really pronounce it. Nine and here's a little longer explanation of what could happen to you. On the Medical Watch today, a new study finds some popular weight loss and diabetes drugs may lead to a condition that causes a form of blindness That condition is known as non. It's a type of eye stroke that causes sudden painless vision loss in one eye. Study published

2:52:19 I like that. It's painless though, don't worry! It's sudden but it's painless. The drugs are prescribed to treat diabetes and help weight loss. Studies showed people with diabetes are four times more likely to be diagnosed with NON if they're taking a prescription semi-glutide. Overweight or obese people taking the medication are seven times more likely to experience the condition. NON is rare, occurring in just 10 out of 100 thousand people." But don't worry! It's painless. So it's one out of ten thousand is another way of putting it? I don't want to be one

Greece Six-Day Work Week, Labor Productivity

Defying the global trend toward shorter work weeks, Greece has implemented a mandatory six-day working week for certain private businesses to boost productivity. The law, which took effect on July 1st, allows employees to work an extra eight-hour shift or two additional hours per day. This move aims to address the country's shrinking population and shortage of skilled labor.

greece· work week· productivity· labor laws· private business

2:53:05 Yeah, it's a number. It's risky. It is very risky! Nobody wants that. Do you have anything else? Yeah I wanted to couple loads just some international stuff...I thought this was weird this is the what's going on in Greece the 48-hour workweek it goes against everybody's trends Oh, here it is. Yes I heard about this too. Greece has implemented a six-day working week in a move to enhance productivity and employment The regulation was enacted on July 1st It defies the global trend of companies considering a shorter workweek Employees of private businesses offering 24 7 services will have the option To work an extra two hours per day or an extra eight hour shift This is according to new legislation passed last year as part of broader labor laws now

2:53:58 I heard about this and thought, is that a bad thing? Is Greece trying to literally work themselves out? They're trying to get it together is what they're trying to do. And as it turns out their lack of productivity can be corrected a bit by making people work more! Yeah sounds like a good idea to me. Hey we all gotta get together. Now when you go in the other direction and your socialist communist Supposed to be working less, 30 hours a week. Yeah! Four days. Wake up and go to the beach read my book yes. Go to the beach read your book drink your coffee read your book and then bitch and moan yeah perfect The other thing is Duke Foley sent me a clip from it's a TikTok clip of course but does these people should go back and get copies of the Hot Shots movies from the 90s

CHAPTER 37 / 41 Discussion

Hot Shots Movie Predictions, President Benson Satire

The 1990s comedy "Hot Shots!" and its sequel are cited as examples of "predictive programming" for their portrayal of President Benson, played by Lloyd Bridges. The character's confused demeanor, physical gaffes, and nonsensical stories bear a striking resemblance to contemporary observations of Joe Biden. Clips from the film show the fictional president mistaking his wife for a saboteur and discussing his "hemp" intestines.

2:54:49 Where he had this guy president bench Benson. I was that with Charlie Sheen was he in hot shots?

Outro, Kamala Harris Word Salad Mix

The show concluded with a "tip of the day" recommending "Liquid Bearing" synthetic lubricant for household use. The final segment featured a montage of Vice President Kamala Harris's repetitive phrases, specifically her frequent use of "the significance of the passage of time" and "unburdened by what has been." The hosts signed off from their respective locations in Texas and Silicon Valley.

3:13:41 Is it a banger? I only have one. But is it a banger? That's... I don't know, It's good, well I liked it! Alright here we go. I don't want to work! Uhh..I don't want to work Yeah. You know, wasn't really that legible to be honest. Yeah. Well here what I have. It seemed legible at the time I did it. Yeah and always sounds better when you do it. I think Here's what I have Crack on. Crack on I know, underwhelming. Here's another one? Question mark question mark question mark profit?

3:14:18 This one I think is the winner. Our amygdalas are on fire! Okay, you guys... Right? I figured. It's not good news it's good advice John C.'s tip of the day Ladies and gentlemen time for the tip of the day which will not be a Costco tip because they're now in the boycott They want to boycott into our Costco And they had a great Costco tip Too bad, too bad Costco boys You screwed it up So there's a product I recommend, you know over the years these different kinds of high-end usually synthetic lubricants and Ranch Hand. Ranch Hand yes Ranch Hand was always the favorite. A really fabulous product just a couple other spray ones to work the problem with ranching i'll tell you right now is like if your spraying on a door jam or something and just it just a minuscule amount gets on the floor

3:15:10 Oh, you'll kill yourself. Yeah you're slipping and sliding forever yeah and you can't wash it off it's unbelievable but I do have another product that's a little more direct than this it sold as a clock lubricant but it's useful for especially for keyholes and door hinges and pretty much anything that needs lubrication. I always use WD-40 for that. Don't use WD-40, use liquid bearing it's on it's a cut its at Costco its on Amazon is called liquid bearing and it's for grandfather clocks but it's really for everything as one of these super slippery synthetic oils but it comes in a

3:15:55 in a bottle that has like a little needle on the end and you can put just one drop somewhere. Wow, bearing B-A-R-I-N-G? Liquid Bearing? BEA Bearing, like ball bearing. Oh okay, bearing. And it is expensive at 18 bucks but it lasts I've had this bottle for 10 years It lasts forever because you don't use much with the La Rancine You spray all over your waist a lot of it This is a terrific product. I recommend people should check it out. It's called liquid bearing It's about 18 bucks nothing like a lubricant tip of the day There's your tip everybody beautiful, yeah end-of-show mixes not John's favorite but they're there and

I think people will totally underestimate the vice president, i put my money on her there is great significance to the passage of time look at her approval rating with democrats 84 percent she's much more popular than the president with young voters it's when she actually says things that people start scratching their head over this like the novel being there what can't be unburden

3:20:42 Unburdened by what has been. About Chauncey Gardner, who was a gardener There is great significance to the passage of time Some woman just all of us and she's president United States Every time she says passage of time you take a shot unburdened by what has been Brahmin.
