Daddy Long Legs

00:00 Then she slurs, she's drunk. It's amazing. Only one podcast would have sports news that is not the Olympics and it's this one.

00:43 Exactly. Congratulations to Terrafuji. What's his name? Teranofuji. Teranofuji. He won. The big fat man won. That's what I thought. I thought the fat guy would win. He's a big fat guy. Well, he's not as fat as the other guys, but he is now a Daiyokozuna. Wow. And what is the... Is there a... Do you have to be a minimum weight? Or a maximum? No, there's actually a small guy named Midori Fuji. Yeah, he got his ass kicked, I hear. No. He's a small guy. He's actually won more than he lost and he is very entertaining to watch. He's just fast. He's out there zooming around. These guys don't know what to do and then they fall down on their ass. Well, I have some news. Some Texas news. J. Cal is moving to the Austin area. What? Yeah, I know.

01:40 He texted me yesterday, sent me a picture of the ranch he bought. It's outside of Boston. Yeah, a horse ranch. It's beautiful. It's beautiful. And yeah, so he's like, hey, you know, when you have a ranch, you have to maintain it. Well, he's going to live there. Yeah, well, okay. He's a raise now. He's gonna be a rancher Rancher I don't think so. Yeah. I see. Yeah. Hey, where's your helipad man? I can't visit if you don't have a helipad. I'm gonna make one I make a helipad. Yeah, he's gonna build a studio is that whole thing? He's doing studio. Yeah. Yeah. All right build a studio. I'll bring people by it'd be fun. Oh

02:20 It'll be interesting to have J. Cal, I mean he's not in Austin, thank God. Because, man, I mean he would hate that. Yeah, he said, I've given up on California, selling everything, I hate it. Sucks. Moving to Texas. We're talking about Jason Calacanis for those of you who don't know. Who of course we've known for 35 years maybe? Have we known? Oh forever. But I didn't never knew he was J-Cal. He was always Jason to me. Jason! No, he's J-Cal. He's J-Cal. Hey, think of it this way. Maybe you'll get invited on the All In podcast.

02:56 Yeah, why don't you do that? We haven't tapped that audience yet. Yeah, yeah, okay. They got audience. Get back on Rogan. Tap the audience. Oh yeah, let me give Joe a call. Hey, hey Joe, John says I gotta get back on the show. Where's your interviews, man? Get on Tucker. I'd love to go on Tucker. He should have me on just because he loves podcasting so much. That's what I'm thinking. Yeah. Nah, he's busy. He's busy doing stuff. We're small potatoes. Face it. Small potatoes. We're nothing.

03:37 Okay, of all the things that we have on our plate today, I think we're just gonna have to stick on one thing and one, I mean, I'm just gonna keep hammering this until... Wait, wait, you want to talk sumo the whole time? No, I don't think so. It's boring. Oh, come on. Oh, please. No, I think that there is something horrible happening in the United States that is obvious, is not being discussed. And I think it's, I know it's done for political reasons, but I think it's wrong. Because who is this daddy long legs pretending to be our president? Stop it. We have no one in charge right now. This is hilarious. I agree with this. This guy is not Joe Biden. It's obvious. I don't know why. I don't know. You see him run it, you know, they put up the big boy steps on Air Force One and he basically ran up them. Yeah. And then he had to duck to get in.

04:33 Yeah, this guy's... And you see real Joe Biden or whatever standing next to Jill, you know, she comes up a little bit above his shoulders. And then this guy, who we're just going to call Daddy Longlegs, he's like, he's a foot taller. By the way, I think the moniker is good because the thing that's most notable about him is he has really long legs. And you know, so I'm talking to Tina about this. And so first of all, it's obvious that Joe is not doing well health-wise. By the way, someone sent in an interesting note saying those bruises on his face probably from a hospital CPAP mask. You know, the funny, well, does it go that high?

05:15 The funny thing is once you pointed that out to me, I can't watch that now and not see it. And I also see the side of his, besides that bruise that you're talking about up on his forehead, which CPAP I don't think took. I mean, we've got nurses checking in. Left side of his face is swollen. Yes. So it could be from a fall, could be because you or you know, I mean the an actual oxygen mask that is on in the hospital, you know, if they don't rotate it the way they should it can leave bruises. This is what I've been led to understand we have RNs and all kinds of medical personnel in our producing audience. I'm not sure we have people that would make that assertion. Sure. So now Seymour Hersh, who I think you and I both trust, you know, he's had pretty good sources.

06:00 In the past, he's independent, that's for sure. By the way, I support his sub stack. I love that he does that. So he wrote today that... By July... I'm gonna read this from his sub-sack. July 20th, former President Barack Obama was deeply involved in the Joe Biden... getting rid of Joe Biden. There was talk that he would place a call to Biden. It was not clear whether Biden had been examined or just what happened to him in Las Vegas. The big three, this official said to Hirsch, referring to the former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, continue to be directly involved on Sunday morning

06:39 With the approval of Pelosi and Schumer Obama called Biden after breakfast and said, here's the deal. This is a quote now. Here's the deal Joe. We have Kamala's approval to invoke the 25th amendment. And so this is what forced- He either got that from his source or he got it from our last show. Yeah, well that's possible. So Joe had no other choice, but I think Joe really is on the ropes medically speaking. And And from what I understand, the Obama's hung back a little bit before this phony baloney call with Kamala. A three camera shoot I might add. A three camera shoot and she's miked and even though she's waving the phone around it sounds exactly the same. Speakerphone sounds great. Complete edit. In fact, let's play it. It's only 45 seconds. Kamala. Hello. Hi. Now did he say it wrong? Did he say, is he supposed to say Kamala?

07:39 Kamala? I don't know. Does Kamala like Pamela? Kamala? Hello? Hi! He said Kamala. Hey there! Hi, you're both together. Oh, it's good to hear you both. You're both together! It's so rare! I can't have this phone call without saying to my girl Kamala. Script. I am proud of you. This is going to be historic. We call to say Michelle and I couldn't be prouder to endorse you and to do everything we can to get you through this election and into the Oval Office. Oh my goodness. Script. Oh my goodness. Michelle Barack, this means so much to me. I'm looking... Listen to how her mic sounds and then how the phone sounds really direct and not distant like her mic. It's so phony this. ...doing this with the two of you... Here's how it went.

08:27 Listen we got to do something, but we don't want to talk to her. You don't actually want to talk to her you will just we'll just record something and you can play it back Doug and I both and Getting out there being on the road, but most of all I just want to tell you that The words you have spoken and the friendship that you have given over all these words mean more than I can express So thank you both means so much and and we're gonna have some fun with this too aren't we? All right, so Here's the problem. Here's the the bottom line problem. She obviously Joe cannot die or be incapacitated President Biden I should say until the election because then she would actually be in charge and then she would be blamed for all the crap everything everything So so they bring in for what and I don't understand so daddy longlegs comes in You know to go to the Olympics and walk around. It's he's literally like one of those dudes on stilts

09:25 It's so obvious. Do they think, could they not get better? Well, could they not find a guy that was Biden's frame and stature? He's wearing a Biden mask, obviously. Yeah. Discuss this enough. The only thing I can think is that the CIA disguise lady, she said that, you know, it's relatively easy to do But you need a donor body and maybe they just, I mean, he's kind of got the right head. He can do a bit of the walk. Let me just replay this from the CIA chief of disguise. We played in the last show. This is from our TED talk. This was sort of the culmination of my career as the chief of disguise. I know that once we did this, once we could create these,

10:13 Think of what we could do. We could change you into anything. We could change your gender. A man into a woman. That's a little hard. Men didn't like to do that. A woman into a man. That was easier. We could change your ethnicity. We could change your nationality. And the most fun thing we could do is we could make another you. We could make your twin. So there could be two of you. We needed to find a donor who would kind of match your height, weight, but we can make a second you. So, you know, they can match your height and weight, but they've this is such is this gaslighting? What is it? Why are they doing this? Are we stupid? This is what I don't understand. It's beyond me why they picked this long legged guy.

10:58 But it's clear that that is not a... Unless they're doing it to signal. It might be signaling, you know, that may be part of the idea of getting Trump in without making it too obvious. Oh, oh, oh, oh, so this is sick. Wait, here's an idea. So it's signaling in order to actually because the Obamas hate Kamala. They hate her. Well, I do have a clip about this. Well, that relates to what your clip, your discussion of Hearst. Yes, yes, yes. Hearst, yes. Hearst, Seymour Hearst. This, this I picked off of a one of the Fox shows they had Monica Crowley on with an analysis that night. Not a big fan of Monica Crowley, but I have to say this Monica Crowley clip, I think

11:43 She's got some inside sources and she knows what she's talking about. This is quite good. But Monica, first, here we are. The Obamas have endorsed Kamala. Does it ring true to you and will it help? Well, they're very late to the party and very reluctant. So according to the reporting that we've seen so far, Charlie and Pete, what we know is that Barack Obama had an alternative plan ready to go. He wanted Joe Biden removed. He saw that he could not win. The New York Post was reporting that they actually moved up the debate because they were trying to frame Joe Biden. They knew that he would implode, so they wanted enough time and runway to replace him with someone else. Obama had a different plan in mind, and it was not Kamala Harris. But Kamala Harris proved to be very wily along with her handlers. She was able to accelerate the process to lock up the support

12:36 and Kamala got a fait accompli of a nomination. She got the Obama's endorsement now at this late date. So the word of warning to everybody here is do not underestimate Kamala and her handlers because they boxed out Obama. They outmaneuvered him really for probably the first time in his political career. He is not very happy about it. They will hit the campaign trail for Kamala, but he will not be an enthusiastic supporter, trust me.

13:21 Ah, you know, and that's the way to get rid of her. The way, and what have, okay, I'm liking this. I have one more follow-up if you want to hear it. Yeah, yeah, and then I want to come up with my, I want to finish my thesis. And the follow-up, it was done before Biden quit. and it discusses Kamala being the conniver. Conniving Kamala, I like it. Conniving Kamala. And curiously, it's from Pastor Manning, our old regular on the show, who goes off on Kamala. Yay, it's the good pastor, everybody. This woman was flaunting her relationship with Willie Brown, former mayor of San Francisco. You know, sweet Willie, sweet Willie Brown, sweet Willie.

14:08 the You know and all over the, you gotta pick up the daily, the British newspapers. I mean they covered it. Many of the people in the Frisco area didn't cover it. In America, they didn't bring it up against her either. But no, this woman was flaunting her relationship with Sweet Willie Brown. And they were getting it on. She did date a black man, because Willie's about as black as you can get. That guy's black as a matoomah's coal. But to hear him, what is that?

14:49 What is it with her marrying this Jewish guy, right? And I'm against Jews, I don't hate Jews. I'm a Zionist, right? I'm not against Jews. Me, no, uh-uh, I believe in Abraham, Jesus too. But now, what is it with her marrying this Jewish guy? Something's up. I can't believe that's love at first sight or any other sight. Something's up. That woman is up to something. That's a crawling woman. I think she married that guy, something's up. Something's up. I can tell you now. I think Willie Brown had her nose open. Now y'all don't know that term.

15:25 I think she was really kind of going for Willie Brown. She was hanging on him. He's trying to get her I think he dumped Willie Brown y'all know sweet Willie. Let's sweet Willie. Let me get the two of them I think Willie Brown had a nose. Oh my thanks. You really like him. I And now she ends up, after dating Willie Brown, after dating Sweet Willie, she marries this Jewish guy. I just don't know Jewish men to be great lovers. No, you know, listen, I get it, I'm not against Jewish food. You know what I mean?

16:02 No, there's something's up with that camera man named Black Harris and Joe Biden better watch himself. I can tell you that right now. Okay, so how about how about this so we had all this trickery going on Kamala slides in? Obama's are pissed Obama say okay. All right. Here's what we're gonna do by the way Jill and the kids hunter here's your net jets card. Okay, stop crying in the Oval Office You're getting your net jets card along with a hundred million

16:44 Because we're gonna put this daddy-long-legs in, it'll be so obvious that people will just have to say, wait a minute, that's not the president. Something's up. It's gonna be a scandal. Not sure how it's going to come to light yet, but it has to be some kind of scandal. Kamala has to assume the presidency, which I think she doesn't become president. Does she? Yes, she does. If he doesn't die, but if he's incapacitated, does her title change immediately? Only if he's kicked out by the 25th amendment. Okay, so she'll just be the acting president. Where's our constitutional scholars? Well, they'll tell us what's what.

17:36 I mean, she'll be the acting president, which is good enough, and then we can really blame her for everything. This is a double cross by the Obamas. There is no other reason for this because they've had better Biden guys. We've seen them. I agree. Something is amiss with this long-legged Biden guy. And the thing is, is notice, for some reason, It could be a tall bigger guy but it's a guy with these he's got these ridiculously long legs. It's obvious he has it's like he has a 42 inseam. It's huge and then the fact that he went up the long steps. Racing! Hello everybody! He rushed up the long steps when Biden is barely making it up the short steps. Why didn't they... there's something fishy about that because why do you put up the long steps after we've had at least two years now... Of the shorties. Of the short steps.

18:34 So now all of a sudden the long steps are there and nobody's suspicious. Everybody's suspicious. So this of course in the season of reveal I'm really hoping that this all takes place because there'll be a lot of explaining to do once we expose the whole concept of body doubles like this I mean people are gonna lose their their ever-loving minds. Well, we had exposed this with Hillary with the purse on the wrong side. Nobody cares about our podcast. Fat-faced Hillary. It wasn't even the same person. It wasn't even close. She had her shoulder bag on the wrong shoulder. That was the tale. She had the wrong stature. She didn't say anything.

19:14 Yeah, yeah, well Biden actually kind of walks he puts his hands forward this phony Biden Yeah, he puts his instead of calling daddy long legs. Just call him what it is daddy long legs He has a he tries to do the Biden gate, but he doesn't quite do it. No Everything's wrong this guy. I mean literally he walks out of the Oval Office where he looks like death warmed over He's like hey everybody look at my legs. Whoo kick. Oh He looks is wilt the stilt Tommy tune. He looks like Tommy. That's who it is Tommy tune died is Tommy tune still with us. I don't think he's I don't know if Tommy tune I did get to see him once on the show and he has got the longest legs Yeah, it's amazing. Well, so let's just go along here and follow this through and

20:08 You remember who donated a million dollars to the Obama election campaign? Television personality. The University of California for one. No, one person, one dude, one guy with a TV show. Oh yeah, Bill Maher. Harris would be the first woman president, first black woman president, and first Asian president. But I don't vote for who will be the first. I vote for who will win. And for whatever reason, Harris has never been popular. You can count the number of delegates she won in the 2020 primaries on one hand, as long as that hand has no fingers. In three years as vice president, she's been quieter than an electric car. And like an electric car, your MAGA uncle can't explain why she fills him with homicidal rage.

21:04 She just does. Sometimes life isn't fair. It's not fair that she's not popular. She's intelligent and accomplished and in fact was put in charge of the border and look at how... Okay, bad example. So now I understand why this whole weekend Stephanie Rule, you know Stephanie Rule, right? The Goldman Sachs girl that the guys on the trading floor like so much? That's just what I hear. Who by the way I think is on Ozempic because all of a sudden she has that kind of O-face. O-face, I like that. So she... Show title. O-face? Haven't we used something like that? O-face. No. So she's doing all the primetime hours on MSNBC. She's bringing on as many black women as she can and it's just like one weird

21:58 Anecdote after another. Here's the first. People are ready for this and ready to sort of continue that energy. You talk about the Zoom call tonight. It was white women organizing for Vice President Harris. I was reading tweets that said they were raising $20,000. So now this is Yamiche. Yamiche. And she was normally, you know, she's been heralded as quite the journalist. Now she's hearing about Zuh. For a while there she was all like, yeah, but she would have production staff behind her. And now all she can report on is

22:37 Zoom calls and I read a tweet So she's doing a period she's not doing reporting She's doing and I heard from someone familiar with the people on the calls thinking for president for vice president Harris I was reading tweets that said they were they were raising $20,000 a minute in a few minutes every 20 minutes. I want to tweet that I saw So, in some ways, it follows, and it does follow the Zoom calls that we saw earlier this week. On Sunday, I was on a Zoom call that lasted until like 1 o'clock in the morning, and that was with 45,000 black women, and other people were on that Zoom call. And they raised $1.5 million.

23:13 How come we don't have a screenshot of this Zoom call? I want to see 40,000 windows. A billion dollars in about three hours, black men had their Zoom call and that's what you're seeing tonight, sort of a continuation of that enthusiasm. Wait, is there some list I'm not on? Are there Zoom calls happening that I'm not being invited to? I'm thinking yes. When it comes to sort of how they're going to keep this up, there's this idea that she's going to be out on the campaign trail a lot. All of my sources that are close to the campaign's thinking tell me... All of my sources that are close to the campaign's thinking. So she's not even talking to the campaign. She's talking to people who are close to the campaign's thinking, which is

23:52 Mind reading. How they're going to keep this up. There's this idea that she's going to be out on the campaign trail a lot. All of my sources that are close to the campaigns thinking tell me that she's going to be crisscrossing this nation, going to all sorts of states. One source that's close to the campaign told me that this is really going to be in some ways a soft issues campaign. And what they meant by that was it's going to be crime. It's going to be abortion. It's going to be the economy, but not sort of here's my policy. Go read my website. It's going to be I have How do I make you feel better? How do I make you feel safer? How do I make you feel like you're gonna have more control over your body if you elect me? This is great. It's gonna be a campaign of feelings.

24:31 How do you feel about me? That's going to be part of the argument that Vice President Harris is going to be making to Americans. And I think that she's going to be also harnessing all of the different bases in the Democratic Party to sort of rebuild a little bit of the Obama coalition, but also her coalition. Yeah. So that was Yamiche. Then we bring on this other woman, also black and the whole panel. Yamiche, by the way, Yamiche. What did I call her? Yamiche. Oh, Yamiche. Okay, here's the other one. Jasmine, we're almost done with the first week of Harris's campaign. What have we learned about the tone and the message of this campaign? Oh, thank you, Stephanie.

25:10 Yeah, well I think the tone of the message was in those clips that you played of her today in Houston. We know, as Yamiche said, that she's going to be leaning on her prosecutorial backwater, background. Backwater? What was she getting on her? Prosecutorial back, backwoods, backwater, background. Yamiche said that she's going to be leaning on her prosecutorial backward, background. Backwards. To juxtapose her. Backwards. Backwards, alright. ...executorial background to juxtapose her candidacy versus Trump. We know that she's going to be talking about some of those kitchen table issues that were really centered and focused in her 2019 run and we know that she is going to be leaning on this momentum and energy that she feels or that you feel when watching her in these rallies. I know I was in Milwaukee on Tuesday and I saw

26:04 all all You know, we saw her give comments on Israel and Gaza, making her stance on that. So I think that all of these things that we're seeing in the first days are going to continue to evolve. But really, that is a tone and tenor of her campaign going forward. So they've just been saying- What did she say? Nothing. That's the point. Look at that energy, tone, tenor. It's all fabulous. It's great. And now I'm even questioning this attack ad, attack ad, this M5M supercut, which I

27:03 Initially I'm like, oh that's pretty funny the RNC put this out, you know, it's what they do. Now I'm thinking it might be the DNC or the Obamas or just people who just want to hate Kamala. There are reports that say you have the lowest approval rating of any vice president. Well there are polls that also say I have great approval ratings. Swing voters don't like Harris. How big a drag is Kamala Harris on the ticket? She's a pretty big drag. I think she was arguably Biden's worst political decision. They don't like her. There's lots of reasons they don't like her. Kamala Harris's approval rating is now at 28 percent, which is an historic low for any modern vice president. We're hearing it from mainstream media, one outlet after another, one leak after another. Kamala Harris is the worst vice president ever, the worst politician ever. We don't see the vice president.

26:04 all all You know, we saw her give comments on Israel and Gaza, making her stance on that. So I think that all of these things that we're seeing in the first days are going to continue to evolve. But really, that is a tone and tenor of her campaign going forward. So they've just been saying- What did she say? Nothing. That's the point. Look at that energy, tone, tenor. It's all fabulous. It's great. And now I'm even questioning this attack ad, attack ad, this M5M supercut, which I

27:03 Initially I'm like, oh that's pretty funny the RNC put this out, you know, it's what they do. Now I'm thinking it might be the DNC or the Obamas or just people who just want to hate Kamala. There are reports that say you have the lowest approval rating of any vice president. Well there are polls that also say I have great approval ratings. Swing voters don't like Harris. How big a drag is Kamala Harris on the ticket? She's a pretty big drag. I think she was arguably Biden's worst political decision. They don't like her. There's lots of reasons they don't like her. Kamala Harris's approval rating is now at 28 percent, which is an historic low for any modern vice president. We're hearing it from mainstream media, one outlet after another, one leak after another. Kamala Harris is the worst vice president ever, the worst politician ever. We don't see the vice president.

27:54 What people are saying to me, and I'm sure they're saying it to you, where's the vice president? Some White House officials are feeling that she came off looking unprepared for inevitable questions about when she might visit the southern border. We've been to the border. You haven't been to the border. And I haven't been to Europe. I don't understand the point that you're making. The point that Lester Holt was making was obvious to anyone else who was watching this interview, which is that the issues at the border are inextricably linked with the portfolio that she's been given. The border is secure. We have a secure border. Bidenomics is working. Prices have gone up.

28:37 and families and individuals are dealing with the realities of that bread costs more, that gas costs more. And we have to understand what that means. That's about the cost of living going up. He picked Kamala Harris. To be his running mate, she was ranked, and is ranked as the most liberal senator in the United States Senate. So he could have gone the other way, but he went to the left. Joe Biden is running for re-election, and I will be his ticket mate. Full stop. Full stop. That's it. I am now more than ever convinced this is an Obama double-cross, and the question is, will they reveal the true identity of Daddy Longlegs

29:26 Just before the convention so they can sneak in Kelly or whoever else they want to bring in there How many we have two more weeks? Well, they're gonna do the straw poll and actually pre elect her on the first About a week before the convention. This is their their technique. What does that mean? That means they're gonna have the guys the conventioneers that are gonna be at the convention do a pre vote on So when the convention began, she's already been pre-selected so there's no debate at the convention. Okay. And is Daddy Longlegs gonna show up at the convention and do a jig? I don't know what they're gonna do. I don't know what you're trying to... I mean, I'm trying to figure... I don't know what they're gonna do with this guy. That makes no sense. Either he's gone now and he was just a temp. Like, our regular guy has a show in Vegas.

30:26 You know that's a pot now that you might be right about that. It's possible that this long-legged guy Yeah, it's just a temp and they'll bring in the short-legged regular because only Biden because our normal guy He's out with kovat or something. You know Maybe that's who actually had kovat. Oh man our guy. There is no Biden. Yeah that the Now, the Biden we saw on television, that looked like the guy. That looked like the dying Joe, unfortunately. I want to play, since we're on this topic, something I didn't play in the last couple of shows, but I decided to finally go back to it. And the thing is this guy Capehart, who's with Brooks.

31:13 He, I watch his weekend shows, I don't have clips from that, but he is completely in with the women, the women for, the black women for Kamala. Well, he's one of them. Movement, yes, he is. And he is so on to the Kamala thing, it's ridiculous. And I want to play just a piece of, from two weeks ago before Biden quit, his back and forth with Brooks. His attitude this is really to me is so biased. I don't understand how this guy's an editor at the Washington Post If you don't the Washington Post is not biased. Hello. I Want to play these two clips and it's it just to show you what? Delusion is taking place amongst mostly blacks black women mostly been him and

32:03 Regarding Harris, and this is K-part on Harris 1, it just leads us into his going nuts. And things like that, so that's raised the sense that it's inevitable that he's gonna go. And so if he's gonna go, he has to go. But it has to be in the next few days or else he's, you know, fatally weakened by being constantly drip, drip, drip of undermine. On what happens next, I think the Democrats would be in big trouble if Kamala Harris was not on the ticket. On the other hand, nothing comes free in politics. The problem with the Democratic process so far is it's been a low information process. Joe Biden got this far because he wasn't tested in the primaries. And the idea you're going to have another nominee who's not tested should be a little alarming to Democrats. So the idea of a mini primary with press conferences or debates, that is not entirely unappealing to me, that Kamala Harris may well get the nomination, but she should have to earn it. She should have to show the party and the country that she's really capable of doing this campaign. Jonathan, what do you make of that? Not tested?

33:03 has to earn it. She's the sitting vice president of the United States who has endured a whole lot of scrutiny in that role. Lots of brick bats from within the party, from the other party, from the press, earn it. She was vice president during COVID. during a 50-50 split in the Senate. So she was basically chained to that president's chair in the Senate chamber, not being able to leave Washington for more than two and a half hours so she could get back and cast tie breaking votes, the most tie breaking votes cast by any vice president. Anyone who says, well, I don't mean to pick on you, David, but anyone who says she has to earn it hasn't been paying attention to what she's done.

33:47 Well a couple of things one finally they're arguing with each other. That's a pro for the show Arguing for the first time ever since we started playing these clips and second he clearly was on the 40,000 women's zoom call yeah I would think so he takes very defensive about the idea that she should do anything at all even though she's obviously Unpopular what do you notice here? They, it looks to me like they're pushing a lot of women of color, let's just call them that. Yes, I'm with you on this. Women of color to promote this and this is a protectionary mechanism because if it all falls apart, well, hey, you had 40,000 women on a call, you said it was locked up, you were familiar with their thinking, it was all good.

34:39 Led by Stephanie Ruhle. The disarguing between the two of them, they kind of make up, they make up a little bit in clip two, but, but, but Capehart maintains his position. I don't agree with that. I don't mean to say that he's not worthy of it, but you know, Joe Biden was president. And he just wasn't out there campaigning. And the process of campaigning, even if it's done over three weeks, is better than no process. And so that would be my only point. Jonathan, I'll give you the last word here. We got 45 seconds. David, have you seen Democrats? I mean, my big fear with Democrats is that if you do have this common sense proposal of an open primary, Democrats will make it a shambolic process.

35:20 and in the end whoever gets the top spot on the ticket, even if it's the sitting vice president, could be as hobbled as the president they've potentially driven off the top of. I hear this word continuously, shambolic. What exactly do they mean by it? It's an idiotic word. It's a word that actually first appeared in the lexicon in 1970, and it means disorganized. Weird. Shambles. It stems from the word shambles. I don't know why it showed up. It's mostly lefties that use it. Earlier in the same back and forth, Brooks used it earlier and he picked it up. And so I don't know why. I don't like the term at all. Let's listen to some more women of color promoting Kamala.

36:12 This is Joy Reid with Michael Steele, another black woman. I think there's something to be said for, you know, what do they call it, the Kamala Mentum that's out there that's really kind of creating a lot of energy here, so much so that you've got Maria Teresa, the griot headline, white women's answered the call for Kamala Harris attracting nearly 200,000 attendees and raising $8.5 million on Zoom. That was. Wait a minute. What was the Zoom call that they were on? So the black woman raised $20,000 and the white women did like eight million.

36:55 You're asking the wrong guy. For Kamala Harris attracting nearly 200,000 attendees and raising 8.5 million dollars on Zoom, That was in, not in response to, but in alliance with the call that took place over the weekend among some 40,000 African-American women that then grew even more so. Uh-huh. Let's go to Anna Navarro, another woman of color. They are so triggered and so wacko. They are shooketh. They are out there saying vile, vile remarks about Kamala Harris. By the way, let's start with that.

37:34 Let's pronounce this. Kamala, Kamala, Kamala. This is not Kamala, which they say on purpose, but that's okay. If you don't want to learn how to pronounce this, that's fine because you're going to be saying Madame President. What Hillary Clinton went through is paling in comparison to what they are putting Kamala Harris through just in a week. The remarks are vile. They are trying to make her dating history an issue. And listen, if you guys want to do that, If you guys want to make her dating history and her personal history an issue, let's do that, okay? Bring it on. Man, chill out. What? Chill out. And by the way, she's supposed to be a Republican, as is Michael Steele.

38:19 Yeah, Michael Steele. Michael Steele was the head of the RNC. Was, yes, was. Okay, let's listen to some white people since this is what it's all gonna be, black versus white. Jen Pisaki has a great term. No, no, no, this is not your clip. By the way, by the way, I want to mention that this is between, if you want to say it's a race thing between whites and blacks, it's also a thing between black men and black women, which I think is the bigger split. Yeah. Yeah, but I don't have any clips of that. No, well, I'm just saying. The idea that the vice- Just like clearing it up. Listen to what Psaki says. The idea that the Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris, is unqualified to be president on her own merits, independent of her race, gender, or anything else, is straight up disinformation. This is a woman who was a prosecutor for two decades before being elected as the Attorney General of California. Then she won the election to the Senate in 2016 and gained notoriety for being a tough

39:16 questioner of judicial nominees and corporate witnesses in hearings. And for the last three and a half years, she has been Vice President of the United States for- Listen to her. And for the last three and a half years, she has been vice president of the United States for goodness sake. Yeah, right. She said no, but she says vice president of the United States. Listen. And for the last three and a half years, she has been vice president of the United States for goodness sake. Come on. Do you not hear this? Rice president of the United States. Yes! And for the last three and a half years, I think she's drunk. She has been rice president of the United States for goodness sake. I mean what are we even talking about here? I think you're right. What are we even talking about? We're talking about rice president of the United States. That was a five martini lunch we had.

40:06 Rice pretty right. I don't there's no denying. I have a couple of questions because there's been these you know these concerned mishearings that I've you hear all the time Yes, which I usually and the best one of course is the one that yeah, but I don't want to go to this right now I'm just saying that this mishearing but in this case I There's no way she didn't say rice and steaks. Rice president of these United States. And then she goes off this God's and then she slurs. She's drunk. Yes, yes, yes, she is. I think you're right. But that's good. That's good show material right there. Rice president of these United Steaks. United Steaks. I have another white dude.

40:52 MSNBC guest, this was quite the opposite message. The Democratic base right now is just entirely lacking for intensity. I mean, when I talk with Democrat elected officials in the battleground states, they tell me the same story over and over and over again. They can't find anybody to come out and volunteer for them to do the sort of work that's necessary in a field operation because there's just no enthusiasm. I mean, we hear all the time about the cliche enthusiasm gap in politics. I've never seen an enthusiasm gap like the one we're witnessing in the summer of this election year. I've heard horror stories from people on the ground in Michigan, in Pennsylvania, in Arizona about just striking out time and time again as local Democratic Party chapters, county chapters have tried to get people to come in and phone bank, to get mail going, to knock on doors. They can't do it. They can't find people.

41:47 I don't know if that's true, but it was on MSNBC. I thought that was rather interesting. There's no enthusiasm, but there's thousands of people on Zoom calls apparently, mythical Zoom calls. And there's one other thing that one of our producers brought to my attention. He says, I don't know what you and John have been seeing this past election cycle, but all I'm seeing is Indians. Indians, Indians, Indians everywhere. Vivek, Nimrata, I mean Nikki Haley, Sanjay Gupta, playing the game. Dinesh D'Souza. Where's Bobby Jindal? Bring back Jindal. Vance's wife. Where is Bobby Jindal? That's a good point. JD Vance's wife, Usha.

42:26 I mean there's a lot so I mean are we going for some some Indian hate now is that is that the next thing on deck with Kamala? She's clearly Indian. I do have a hate clip and look who's running Google look who's running Microsoft. Yeah Indians Indians. This is a little morning Joe hate they're talking about the about the basis the hate basis they're gonna start throwing at Kamala. And I've heard from inside Republican circles and right-wing media that the hate campaign against Kamala Harris has begun. You'll notice they purposefully pronounce her name wrong. They say Kamala. They do it all the time. It is on purpose. But the talk is to start that hate campaign and get it going and start it churning.

43:18 Yeah, so this is part of Moe's theory and I have to say there's definitely something to it. He predicted on the last episode we did together, he predicted that this unfortunate shooting in Illinois of this black woman by the cops Have you even heard about this? Yeah. Is that that this would start to you know, this happened a couple weeks ago and now it's bubbling up and that this is going to be the start. You know, they're looking for a new George Floyd. Yeah, I have a clip here that kind of explains what happened. It's clearly, I mean this cop could not have been, if you wanted

43:59 Guy that looks like a racist white cop and you have the body cam footage It's almost like the script is just too good to be true for some real Real protest happening. So yeah, Massey was a mother. She was a sister. She is a daughter A call to police for help turning into the last call 36 year old Sonia Massey would ever make. Her death sending shockwaves across the nation as body camera footage is revealing her final moment. Massey could be heard saying quote, I will rebuke you in the name of Jesus while moving the pot of water.

44:38 Sengaman Sheriff's Deputy Sean Grayson drawing his weapon causing Massey to duck behind the counter saying she was sorry. We've stopped the video before Grayson is seen firing his gun three times, hitting Massey once in the face. The now-fired sheriff's deputy's record includes two DUIs and a discharge from the Army for misconduct, according to ABC News. He's pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder, among other charges against him. It was one of the most horrific murders that we've ever seen in recent history, if not all of history. Details following the shooting revealing not only a breakdown in communication within the department, but also to family of Massey.

45:19 body worn camera showing Grayson initially discouraging his partner from trying to save Massey's life. I'm gonna go get my kid. We all got to see how a police officer stood by as a woman was murdered right in front of his face. But here's the question, how much longer? How many more Sonia Massey's? How many more Michael Brown's? How many more Eric Garner's again and again and again it's gone on? Rally goers calling for an overhaul of the system and on Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, something Massey's family has also vocalized. The proposed reform aims to hold police accountable, change the culture of law enforcement and build relationships in communities by addressing systemic racism and bias. So of course we don't actually know the whole story, but the script is written. I mean it's clear.

46:11 from the way it's being presented and I think it was Kamala Harris, Vice President Rice, Vice President Harris who who pleaded for the the George Floyd Act. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised she's for defunding the police. Of course she also you know thought that Jesse Smollett was you know that they put a noose around his neck. Yes, she fell for that. Let's not forget that one. So, you know, this is clearly a play. I don't know if they're gonna... I don't know. But I think by August 2nd she has to announce her vice president, her VP pick. Why does she have to do it by August 2nd? That's just something I heard on the news. I don't know anything. I'm just telling you. She can announce it anytime she wants. It'd probably be during the convention, I would think. I'm just telling you what I heard.

48:45 Well I thought this one, I think that ad replaced this one or this one replaced that one. I have a Camelot campaign ad. Oh, oh, oh, every, really you're gonna play this? Everyone saw it. Where is it? What's it called? Camelot ad. No, Camelot campaign ad. I, Kamala Harris, senior Democrat candidate for president because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility in the debate. Thanks, Joe. I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire. I'm both a woman and a person of color. So if you criticize anything I say, you're both sexist and racist. I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember, that's a good thing if you're a deep state puppet.

49:33 I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor Joe Biden. Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your total incompetence. I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they're significant and I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. Talking about the significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time and there is such great significance to the the I know Donald Trump's tight. And okay, look, maybe my work addressing the root causes of the border crisis were catastrophic, but my knowledge of international politics is truly shocking. The United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the Republic of North Korea. It is an alliance that is strong and enduring. And just remember when voting this November, it is important to see what can be unburdened.

50:45 by what has been. And by what has been, I mean Joe Biden. You think the country went to sh** over the past four years? You ain't seen nothing yet. Now do you think that was one of our girls or was that AI? I think it was one of the, it could be either one but I think it's one of the girls. I think so too. Because they're so prevalent now on X. It must have been one of them. Yeah. By the way, if it was AI, that's not going to happen in the European Union. That's not going to happen.

52:20 I'd like to move to the other two candidates for a moment, Trump and RFK Jr., because they both spent a lot of time this weekend pandering in Nashville. They're saying that all hell is going to break loose and you're going to need a bitcoin. Now this is really interesting to me of course but it should be to anybody that the only one so far not pandering to the Bitcoiners is Kamala Harris. Kamala. Did I say it right now? Kamala. Kamala. No, you're mispronouncing it every chance you get. That's what you do. I'm a racist. There you go.

53:01 So Trump showed up on the at the very last moment, the last speech of the Bitcoin conference in Nashville, which by the way, the bands of Bitcoin was a podcasting 2.0 project. We of course did this outside of their event. We had 12 bands performing over three days, was pretty awesome, all in the modern podcast apps. Congrats to everybody who participated, a lot of our Noah Jenner stream people. And I pulled a couple clips, actually I got them from Chris from the This Week in Bitcoin podcast who did it. He did an emergency pod! It was great. Emergency pod! He did an emergency pod, which I actually appreciate. I'm like, oh fantastic that you already... You appreciate because you got some clips. He pre-clipped it for me, exactly. Here's the introduction. This is the kind of spirit that built America and this is the spirit that's going to help us make America great again. It's what we're doing.

53:57 I stand before you today filled with respect and admiration for what the Bitcoin community has achieved. It's incredible, actually. I sort of say to my sons, it's like incredible because they know so much about it. They're so aware of it, much more so than people that are a little bit older. But I say this is the steel industry of 100 years ago, really is. I think you're just in your infancy. I can see it happening. In just 15 years, Bitcoin has gone from merely an idea posted anonymously on an internet message board to being the ninth most valuable asset anywhere in the world. Can you believe that? Is that right? That's a big deal.

54:43 The reason I've come to address the Bitcoin community today can be summed up in two very simple words. America first. Because if we don't do it, China's gonna be doing it, others are gonna be doing it. Let's do it and do it right. So he, no it was. Wow, I know he twisted that one into America first. Oh, oh, oh, it gets better. This is the kind of spirit that built America and this is the spirit that's going to help us make America great again. That's what we're doing. I stand before you today filled with respect and admiration for what the Bitcoin community has achieved. It's incredible actually. I sort of say to

55:29 My son's it's like incredible because they know so much about it and so they're so aware of it. Wait did I just play this? Yeah you played this clip already. I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that. So I only have a couple here. The most surprising which I thought was really interesting and it surprised him too is when he made this statement. He said a lot about Elizabeth Warren and Pocahontas and she hates you and I'm not gonna let her do anything. This afternoon I'm laying out my plan to ensure that the United States will be the crypto capital of the planet and the Bitcoin superpower of the world and we'll get it done.

56:11 If crypto is going to define the future, I want to be mined, minted and made in the USA. It's going to be. It's not going to be made anywhere else. And if Bitcoin is going to the moon, as we say, it's going to the moon, I want America to be the nation that leads the way. And that's what's going to happen. No, you're gonna be very happy with me. I pledge to the Bitcoin community that the day I take the oath of office, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris's anti-crypto crusade will be over. It will end. It'll be done. It'll be done.

56:48 Elizabeth Warren and her goons and she's very nasty to you. She hates your people. She hates everything about you. We'll keep their hands off Bitcoin. They're going to keep their hands off crypto. They're going to let it grow. We're going to let it grow on day one. I will fire Gary Gensler and appoint a new chairman. I didn't know he was that unpopular. He was really surprised by that. He went back and he said it again. I'm gonna fire that guy! I took out all of the other applauses because there was just a lot of it. The biggest one was an obvious one. It was a gimme almost. Today I repeat my pledge to commute the sentence of Ross Ulbricht to a sentence of time served. It's enough. It's enough.

57:48 So that's Ross Ulbricht of Silk Road. I think he's been in jail for 10 years. So, oh the Silk Road guy. Yeah, so here so then he lays out his strategic plan, his policy. Many Americans do not realize that the United States governor is among the largest holders of Bitcoin. Does anyone know that? How about that? The federal government is almost 210,000 Bitcoin or 1% of the total supply that will ever exist. But for too long, our government has violated the cardinal rule that every Bitcoiner knows by heart. Never sell your Bitcoin. That's right, isn't it? That's right.

58:37 How did I figure that one? Never sell your Bitcoin. And so, as the final part of my plan today, I am announcing that if I am elected, it will be the policy of my administration, United States of America, to keep 100% of all the Bitcoin the US government currently holds or acquires into the future. We'll keep 100%. I hope you do well, please. This will serve in effect as the core of the strategic national Bitcoin stockpile. Okay, so right after he was done, Senator Loomis from Wyoming came on and she had already written the policy for the strategic Bitcoin reserve, which includes purchasing up to 1 million Bitcoin in the next five years.

59:32 And I guess kind of the good thing is that it would be taken from the Federal Reserve's, I don't know, extra gold chips they got laying around or something, but the idea is they would not print new money for it. One million Bitcoin? Yeah. One million dollars worth of Bitcoin? No, no, one million Bitcoin. That's 65 trillion dollars. I don't think so. No, I think that's 65 billion. I don't think it's 65 trillion. I don't think it's 65 trillion. Okay, it could be 65 trillion. But here's the kicker, and then I want to play RFK two clips. Here's the kicker. So I'm like, you know, this is so opposite of what

1:00:09 of what Trump was talking about. I mean, really, it's not 180. He's like, no, it's a danger to the US dollar. But then he kind of uncloaked and there was a lot of silence when he talked about this. As part of our effort to provide regulatory clarity, we will create a framework to enable the safe and responsible expansion of staple stable coins. Do you know what a stable coin is? Does anybody know? Please raise your hand. allowing us to extend the dominance of the US dollar to new frontiers all around the world. America will be richer, the world will be better and there will be billions and billions of people brought into crypto economy and storing their savings in Bitcoin. So he really doesn't know much because the pronunciation stable coins or stable coin is how it's pronounced.

59:32 And I guess kind of the good thing is that it would be taken from the Federal Reserve's, I don't know, extra gold chips they got laying around or something, but the idea is they would not print new money for it. One million Bitcoin? Yeah. One million dollars worth of Bitcoin? No, no, one million Bitcoin. That's 65 trillion dollars. I don't think so. No, I think that's 65 billion. I don't think it's 65 trillion. I don't think it's 65 trillion. Okay, it could be 65 trillion. But here's the kicker, and then I want to play RFK two clips. Here's the kicker. So I'm like, you know, this is so opposite of what

1:00:09 of what Trump was talking about. I mean, really, it's not 180. He's like, no, it's a danger to the US dollar. But then he kind of uncloaked and there was a lot of silence when he talked about this.

America will be richer, the world will be better and there will be billions and billions of people brought into crypto economy and storing their savings in Bitcoin. So he really doesn't know much because the pronunciation stable coins or stable coin is how it's pronounced.

1:01:00 So the idea here is you're going to back the stable core. That'll be the expansion of the US dollar essentially. That'll be the digital dollar. I think he's all in on that. And you can hear there was no enthusiasm for it. And he even said, no, this is Bitcoin is good. Those who say that Bitcoin is a threat to the dollar have the story exactly backwards. I believe it is exactly backwards. Bitcoin is not threatening the dollar. The behavior of the current US government is really threatening the dollar. So we'll see what that policy really means, but the stablecoin business, I don't think that's very good. He did say that he would always protect self-custody, which is a hot-button issue for the Bitcoiners, as well as create a task force made of Bitcoiners who would be working for the Bitcoin industry. Now, what is interesting is the day before, RFK Jr. did his speech at Bitcoin,

1:02:00 clearly understands much more about the Bitcoin community, about Bitcoin itself. And here's his intro. Despite their different viewpoints, I found the most striking feature of Bitcoin community is this kind of paradoxical juxtaposition marked by fierce divisions on several minor issues. and an overwhelming sense of unity within the larger Bitcoin ecosystem. The Bitcoin community reminds me of how American politics ought to be. Fiercely diverse, but ultimately united in our aspirations and our belief in our country and in our convictions that America is worth the fight. I am so glad to be back for my second Bitcoin conference.

1:02:53 Since last year in Miami, I've been meeting with leaders and thinkers from this community. I've conferred with Bitcoin miners, with policy makers, with economists, with financial experts, with investors and developers and entrepreneurs that deepen my understanding of the extraordinary promise of Bitcoin for our country and for our planet. I think he understands this group much better and he also laid out his policy. It's interesting he uses a very similar type of policy to what Trump announced the day after. After all I've learned, I intend as President of the United States to sign an executive order on day one directing the Department of Justice and the U.S. Marshals to transfer the approximately 200,000 bitcoin

1:03:50 held by the US government to the United States Treasury, where it will be held as a strategic asset. On day one as president, I will sign another executive order directing the US Treasury to purchase 550 Bitcoin daily until the US has built a reserve of at least 4 million Bitcoins.

1:04:34 and a position of dominance that no other country will be able to usurp. Our nation holds approximately 19% of global gold reserves. This policy will give us about the same proportion of total Bitcoin. The cascading impact from these actions will eventually move Bitcoin to a valuation of hundreds of trillions of dollars. On day one as president, I will sign also an executive order directing the IRS to issue public guidelines that all transactions between Bitcoin and the US dollar are unreportable transactions. And by extension, non-taxable.

1:05:30 So, you know, well that well, he's not gonna be president. That's never gonna happen. But it does give me some insight into how the Economy is gonna eventually collapse. So there's that tell me well, I mean you start I'm just gonna leave it at that. What I don't okay. I just don't understand what you're saying I understand what you saying that Bitcoin is not sustainable Not sustainable. And if it goes back to its original value of 25 cents, it's going to cause economic havoc. Oh, okay. Well, see you in 19 years. I have a different belief there. Yeah, I know. And don't sell whatever you do. No, never ever. President Trump told me, never ever sell your Bitcoin. Why would I do that? But the point that he's making,

1:06:29 I don't know how many Bitcoin, I think there's three Bitcoin, three and a half Bitcoin are created every 10 minutes. So that's, what is that? So that's a times six is 18 times 24. He would be really wanting the US to buy more Bitcoin than are created on daily basis. So that would definitely increase the price. Yeah, because he'd be taking it off the market. Well, but he tried to, yeah. Anyway, I don't... Well, Kennedy, you know, is a huge... Kennedy, if he was allowed to be the Democrat that he is, would be a huge threat to the Republicans.

1:07:11 He could easily win the presidency. Unfortunately, he is against the Democrat policy and the Democrat, in fact, these Jen Psaki clips are a good example of what I'm going to say, which is the Democrats have been gaslighting the public. They've been lying to the public. They are unbelievable. And I wonder, I've said it before, and I'm going to backtrack a little bit. I am wondering, you know, I've said that they're sincere. And now I'm beginning to doubt myself in so far as their sincerity is concerned because these Jen Psaki clips bring up, are you kidding me? Are you really that stupid? Are you sincere about this? Because I'm beginning to doubt it now. I'm thinking that they're just basic liars.

1:08:04 Connivers. Well, hold on a second. You mean the media? Not the Democrats themselves, but the media who are on the Democrat payroll or whatever, however that works. It's the structure, the Democrat party as a whole. The media is just part of it. Yeah. Yeah. Including Fox. Fox to a much lesser extent. I have four Jen Psaki clips from this morning. and I wonder it's just it's a it's ridiculous. Well is she drunk because I think that was the top... No she's I don't think so but she does she doesn't listen to it by the way she brings Pete Buttigieg on and she doesn't listen to it. Do you think that when she says vice president that's being racist against Indians? Just thinking it just thought of that also. If she said curry maybe. Okay.

1:09:00 First of all, there's the intro clip that she has as a teaser and this is not part of the regular set of clips here. But I just want to throw it in as one example of of insincerity and basic lying. Just this is the beginning of her show. And later, JD Vance's comments about childless cat ladies is just plain weird. And somehow his attempt at a cleanup only made things weirder. Yeah, this is a very old statement. He made and it's funny in 2011 to be exact and it's funny he talks about childless cat ladies who were who hate themselves and She says there that it's weird. This is weird to you. Have you you've ever heard of a cat lady? I mean the Simpsons have a cat lady as a character has been a character for 30 years or more and

1:09:51 I don't understand how that's weird. Well, the only I mean of all the leaders There's a lot of childless cat ladies. We have Remember a Merkel childless cat lady How about Maloney? Does she have kids? She might be a childless cat lady. I mean, yeah, it's like Okay I mean they've been... It's a stereotype. What they've been using this for, because I, you know, of course I didn't clip it, but they've been using it to say, oh Trump is already regretting his VP. He's got to be regretting it. I've heard this too. He's got to be regretting it because look at all these, oh look at this stupid thing he said 13 years ago. Oh no, 13 years ago? Was it that long? Well yeah, it was 2011 when he said it. Wow.

1:10:41 I mean the stuff that Kamala says three years ago in 2020 when she was running, she has all these crazy things she said, but we don't pay attention to that. But we go back to 2011 for this Vance comment, which isn't weird. Childless cat lady is a stereotype that I think a lot of people have ridiculed. Sure, cat ladies for sure and cat ladies are often childless. So let's go to the basic clips here and I want you to listen carefully now. I'm gonna pre pre bunk. Oh, no I'm gonna just think so people can hear it as it comes about They bring they're gonna talk about Trump and the fact that he you know He's what he said to the Christian group, which we understand everyone understands, but they don't so so they start talking about Trump's style of oratory and the fact that he

1:11:38 You can take it literally or figuratively or you can take it seriously or non-seriously. The script is screwed up, Buttigieg blows it, and he says, well people wonder whether you can take Trump literally or seriously. Oh, that should have been figuratively? Seriously and seriously are exactly the same thing. So that's not a choice that you'd make. So he would say seriously or unseriously or literally and figuratively, but no, he says literally or seriously, Jen Psaki chokes

1:12:19 doesn't correct him because she could do it right at the beginning when he says this and say no you mean figure D oh yeah yeah yeah maybe they would have reset and gone on to their complaining but she doesn't do that she chokes it because she's not good she's not a good interviewer she's not listening and she doesn't know how to save something so it just goes downhill Because they, so she, at the very last clip, which is clip four, of the three, starting with two, she kind of completely chokes it. But I wanted to listen to this and this is what, this really bothers me that they're taking Trump

1:13:00 They're taking Trump out of context and then they're analyzing it poorly. Here we go. Well, it's officially 100 days until the election. So that means it's 100 days to make sure your polling place hasn't changed, 100 days to figure out if you're going to vote by mail or vote in person. And of course, there's a lot that will happen between now and then. But we already know the stakes in this election. And Donald Trump just reminded us that in 100 days, it's really not just a normal election. It's an election where we decide if we still want to hold elections again. And again, Christians get out and vote just this time.

1:13:40 You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what? It'll be fixed, it'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not gonna have to vote. In four more years, you're not gonna have to vote again. Those are his words, those aren't my words, that's Donald Trump's words. So those are the stakes. And yeah, it's frightening, it should be. The good news, though, is that a lot of good things happened this week for the Democratic ticket. Oh, interesting. So she's taking that as you, Christians, Christians, elect me president. She's dropping the Christians part. She's just taking this and this is every she's not the only one doing this. And what she's trying to do is it's like there'll be no more dictator from day one. Yeah, there'll be no more elections. I'll be a dictator. Just have to do it now. And then you don't have to worry about it ever again.

1:14:36 That's exactly what she's saying is happening. She says it's frightening. Now anyone who's serious and knows about Christian voters knows that they're a hard nut to crack in certain elections with certain people and they just don't vote. And it's been a known fact for a long time. And it's always like, oh God, we got it. George W. Bush got the Christians to vote because he faked being a super Christian and nobody seriously believed him. But it was a big deal to get the evangelicals who are lazy voters to get out to vote and get them to vote. So this is what Trump is doing. He's talking to a Christian group and he's saying, look, Christians,

1:15:20 Let's vote for me because I know you know we all know that you don't like voting and so this is one time vote and you won't have to worry about it after that. Everyone knows what this means. He's not saying this is the last time you're ever going to get to vote. John, it worked on me. I immediately couldn't wait to vote. Trump has got me, he's got me now. And knowing you'll never have to vote again because you won't be allowed to vote because he's gonna be dictator from day one. This is the threat to democracy we're talking about. So at this point I can't believe that this is sincerity, this is bullcrap, this is a blatant lie and she's trying to pull this off. Blue dress, gold dress type deal like this is what you heard. I don't think it's even, I think it's just complete bullshit. What's interesting is that clip, I don't think I have it, because right after that he says, I'm a Christian but you, I saw it on Twitter people saying Trump just said he's not a Christian.

1:16:19 And when someone prompts you as saying, he said, I'm not a Christian, it sounds like he's saying, I'm not a Christian. But he said, I'm a Christian. And she cut that up for some reason. I don't understand why because that would have been even funnier. See that part, that subtlety which you could have easily used. Well I think it's because they don't care about the Christian part. They're trying to get the Christian angle out. Yeah, you're right. He just wants people to vote from this one time because you're not going to get a chance to vote again ever, Christian or not. That's what she's saying. So you don't want, that would ruin the point. Do you think her audience buys into this?

1:17:00 I think some of them do because they're stupid and I've come to the conclusion and I may go way back on this and I got a couple of comments to make after the last clip. I think the Democrats take advantage of their audience. They get them because the Democrat Party is like it's a club. You join it or cult even. And you want your Democrat, oh yeah, Democrats. Because most people don't pay attention, they just vote Democrat. And so the ones who do pay attention, they listen to her and she's just goading them. Look what this guy's gonna do. He's a threat to democracy. He's not gonna have elections anymore.

1:17:36 which is all impossible, but okay, because none of the people that listen to this stuff have ever taken a civics course or knows how the country works. So now we bring in Pete and here we go. Joining me now is Pete Buttigieg. He is appearing in his personal capacity, not his official role as a member of the Biden administration. So I'm awkwardly not going to call you Mr. Secretary or Mayor. That's where we are. Great to be here. Thank you so much for being here with me this afternoon. Thanks for having me in. So I just I played that clip of Donald Trump saying, in four years you won't have to vote again. I mean, he's made similar statements before. Governor Krista Noonan was on after you on Fox News this morning. He said it's just classic Trumpism. I think it's pretty important to call out. What did you think when you heard him say that?

1:17:00 I think some of them do because they're stupid and I've come to the conclusion and I may go way back on this and I got a couple of comments to make after the last clip. I think the Democrats take advantage of their audience. They get them because the Democrat Party is like it's a club. You join it or cult even. And you want your Democrat, oh yeah, Democrats. Because most people don't pay attention, they just vote Democrat. And so the ones who do pay attention, they listen to her and she's just goading them. Look what this guy's gonna do.

1:17:36 which is all impossible, but okay, because none of the people that listen to this stuff have ever taken a civics course or knows how the country works. So now we bring in Pete and here we go. Joining me now is Pete Buttigieg. He is appearing in his personal capacity, not his official role as a member of the Biden administration. So I'm awkwardly not going to call you Mr. Secretary or Mayor. That's where we are. Great to be here. Thank you so much for being here with me this afternoon. Thanks for having me in. So I just I played that clip of Donald Trump saying, in four years you won't have to vote again. I mean, he's made similar statements before. Governor Krista Noonan was on after you on Fox News this morning. He said it's just classic Trumpism. I think it's pretty important to call out. What did you think when you heard him say that?

1:18:20 Yeah, I mean, candidly, I don't completely understand what he means. I don't want to have to worry about what he means. It's yet another reason why we've got to make sure he doesn't get reelected. You know, I remember a few years ago, there were some commentators who sounded clever by saying, you know, the problem with Democrats is we were taking Trump literally we should have taken him seriously. And the smart people were taking him seriously instead of taking him literally. But when he says something like that, or when he says something like wanting a political opponent like Liz Cheney, a congresswoman who criticized him to be tried in a televised military tribunal, I don't know whether to take that literally or seriously. Either way, it's bad news.

1:19:07 Yeah, you had something to say I'm waiting. Well, no, I did after the last clip, but this is Let me say I want to yes. Did you hear what it would happen there? I know what a mess it was well, and and here's what else I want to say this about that Buddha judge when he was on Bill Maher show He was quite impressive and he was not reading a script He was just talking and I can see where when people just talk to him and He's he's he's actually quite endearing. He's you know, he was enamoring in a way I'm like, well the guy's actually he didn't have any of these dumb gaffes, but when he's in a scripted environment He sucks and that's what you heard. He's like He he's he's probably an actually a good guy and When he's doing something evil his his brain won't allow it and he goes off the rails. I

1:20:03 Well, that's what happened this time and it was obviously scripted Yeah, and she made a big point about him being there as a private citizen. Give me a break and then he says Literally or seriously and they makes that a dichotomy. It's not three times. He did it. Oh, yes, and she's like Unfortunately, she is incompetent as a host and she didn't stop it. I which she should have done right away when she heard it if she was listening. But she's one of these, you know, she's scripted too. Yes. And so now it just completely falls apart and that you have to just assume that this is just, this is not sincerity, this is just lying. Either way, it's bad news. Either way, if he's saying, I want to eliminate a system so nobody has to vote again, that's a huge problem. And we should take that both of those of those ways.

1:20:54 We should take that both of those ways? Both ways, yeah. What that mean? In other words, you take it literally and seriously. So she just drops, she blows it up. Now I want to mention something here that I've never talked about, but when I was writing editor or op-eds for the San Francisco Examiner, I ran into this book and I had worked with Tom Bates, who was a state assemblyman. He also became Tom Bates. Bates, yeah. He used to be a mayor of Berkeley, then his wife was the mayor of Berkeley and he was an assemblyman for a long time. And back in the 60s or 70s, he wrote a book which I got a hold of because somebody tipped me off about it. I would challenge people to try to find this book. Bates is one of the authors, I think there's about three or four authors, it's called The Wealth of Cities.

1:21:49 And the Wealth of Cities describes a process that done a Democrat process of how to rape city's coffers to benefit you, the Democrat Party. And it includes the idea that if you get a hold of a city, you take it over, or take over a whole state like the Democrats have done in California, and then you put your cronies in place, you give them high-paying jobs, and I've run into guys in the area that are beneficiaries of this policy. including too many to mention, but I do know this. They did set up a series of low-income housing that they were going to give away to the poor

1:22:36 And they built these beautiful condos. I can point them out to anybody who wants me to drive them by them. They're in Berkeley. And instead of the poor living in them, they were given to various political cronies in the Democrat Party. It was all part of the strategy listed in this book, which is they bought most of them back up because it's embarrassment to the Democrat Party. called the wealth of city in his cities and it's this happened in the in by that Raji some weird Indian guru that took over a town in Oregon. Oh, yeah The guy with the 45 the orange guy. Yeah with the 45 Merce are not Mercedes. Yeah Yeah, they took over a city and they did the same thing if they use the wealth of city strategy you take over as a

1:23:25 You get enough voters that vote yourself in and then you steal all the tax money and you tax even more which they're doing in California is where there's still potholes. And you just put cronies in office and give yourself big salaries. This is a scam. The Bhagwan guy, that's who it was, the Bhagwan. Bhagwan. Yeah. And it's this huge, the Hare Krishnas I think is what the group was. Oh, Hare Krishnas. Yeah, I think you're right. It was the Hare Krishnas. This is unbelievable to me and these people cannot be trusted. The Democrat Party is the most corrupt operation I've ever run into, having been a Democrat a good part of my life. Well, we need a copy of this book. And by the way, I confronted Bates about this book when I was writing for The Examiner.

1:24:09 And he was really sheepish about it. I don't know, it was just when I was young, and he said it was bullshit. Well, we need a copy of this book, and I now command our producers to go find it. There is someone out there who knows how to get their hands on a copy. We'll see. And with that, I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you, the man who put the C in the wealth of cities, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeMora! I'm creating more ships he boots on graphene the essence of our games nice out there. Hello there trolls 2560 which is a little lower than the last Sunday we did we had 2899 and That also shows you did you fire? You didn't fire off the puppy. Did you I'm sorry you didn't fire off the puppy?

1:25:07 What puppy? Oh no, I didn't fire off the puppy. I almost fired off the puppy, but I should have because we never got enough donations to really count to much. Fire off the puppy, club the seal everybody. Thank you to these trolls who are here. We appreciate you. I love that you guys are here. Find us that book, Wealth of Cities. I would love to read that book. You know the funny thing is I may have a copy that I've had photocopied from the University of California photocopying service. Yeah, I'm sure you have a copy somewhere. Lost in the house! Yep. Don't open the closet. Whatever you do, don't go looking for it, please. We want to have another show Thursday.

1:25:47 Those trolls are in the troll room at trollroom.io. A lot of them were on the stream for bands of Bitcoin. It was quite a hoot nanny. We had a good time. I even did, I went against my beliefs and I streamed the Boostergram ball live and I also did video. You did video? Yeah. Well, video is saying a lot, but I had, so I was streaming my screen with my DJ set. It would mean a little corner in my face. So you're down in the corner like the cat. Exactly. Whatever happened to that cat? Like the talking cat, exactly. What happened to talking cat? Bring back the talking cat, everybody. So people were in the troll room, trollroom.io. Of course, they were using the modern podcast apps because that's where you can do live streaming and get notified every single time a new band came on. You got a notification about it. It was pretty cool. Podcastapps.com.

1:26:48 is where you get one of those. Support your independent podcast apps. If not, you'll be very sorry when you see, because there will be one of your favorite podcasts just going to disappear from Apple. So you might as well start importing your favorite podcasts from all of those legacy apps. What are you laughing? I'll open up the art generators. You'll see. Okay. We run Value for Value, which is a roller coaster of life. It means we put out the show with no expectation other than that you'll support us with value in return. And we take that in time, talent and treasure. You can do all... We actually got a lot of meetup reports, which is kind of fun, which we'll be doing later on. But before that, we want to thank some other people who give us valuable, very valuable work as our artists.

1:27:41 And we want to thank the artist for episode 1680. We titled that Seismic Sunday, which was mentioned in the show. And the art was brought to us by yet another Dutch master, Matthew Dropko. He's been a Dutch master since the early 1700s. And there we have it. It was a piece of AI. It was the best one we felt. We did look at a couple other things. We'll talk about that. But this was Well, we think that was the original Joe with Kamala Harris as he's passing the ice cream cone. A lot of people liked this art. They thought it was funny. They immediately said, hey, AI still can't do hands and fingers right, which is true. Kamala had three fingers. Joe had five. You know what's funny is that a friend of mine who teaches art drawing at the Art

1:26:48 is where you get one of those. Support your independent podcast apps.

You know what's funny is that a friend of mine who teaches art drawing at the Art

1:28:35 Art Center in Pasadena, once told me when you're looking at art to purchase, he says the hardest thing for actual artists to do is hands. Yeah, oh sure, sure. He said to do a realistic hand, and there's these little hand models and all these things, but he says that is the number one hard thing, so you always look at the hands to see if the artist is any good, and you'll find that very few of them can do hands, so it doesn't really, it shouldn't be a shock That the AI can't do hands because artists themselves can't do hands. They're very hard to do. This Wealth of Cities, that's not by Norquist, is it? I don't think so. It's got, Bates has got to be one of the authors. Okay, yeah, because people are sending me this, oh look, it's in the library. Grover Norquist is the guy who is the tax guy. That came much later. And the book should be from the 60s or 70s, not anything new. This is John Norquist.

1:29:31 No, it's not Grover. No, no, let me see. When is it from it's from? It doesn't say anyway I don't think that's the one the wealth of cities Norquist chronicles the decay of urban centers. No, no, no, that's not it's not about decay It's about exploitation fake news. It's fake news. Everybody. It's fake news So let's look at some of the other submissions that we didn't choose. I remember I was pushing for something pretty hard. Yeah, you were pushing for the laughing coconut. I love the laughing coconut and you thought it was gruesome. It was. There's nothing more gruesome than a big...

1:30:10 human mouth on something other than a human. I thought it was great. It was totally... I thought... You like... sometimes you really fall for gruesome art. But it wasn't that gruesome and, and you know, this... you had two credits. It was creepy. Okay, it wasn't gruesome. You're right. It's creepy. So you had two credits and I just said you now have one credit left. No, no, no. Yeah, no, this does not qualify as, as you said, gruesome and now you're backpedaling. It's gruesome. and creepy. It's gruesome and creepy. You're just trying to get out of the hole. So is Kamala. She's also creepy. Let's see what else there was. Now the one that you wanted, which you use ultimately for the newsletter, was the totally Joe where it said Joe Biden sitting behind three mics and you got this author from Dropco by the way. You got it right away because this is a throwback, callback. Yes and I had to explain it to you. Yep you did.

1:31:09 And it's a call back to a Star Trek episode from the late, I think probably the first or second season, where some Star Trek captain had moved to some planet to help modernize it, but they ended up turning it into a Nazi state. They drugged him and then put him behind microphones to turn over the government to a bunch of fascists. Is what this represents and so only like Star Trek junkies or lunatics that have a long memory I would remember this it wasn't a good pick for the for the Show cuz it's too obscure. It's an obscure joke. Yes. It was the one the one I liked and I was trying to promote was the Tantanil no agenda Kamala Kamala

1:32:08 You're saying it wrong. No, it's Camilla. Well, I didn't like that one. It rhymes with Pamela. Pamela Camilla. That's the easy way to remember how to do it right. So, the Dutch master Tantaniel, I was against it because it has a gruesome green color, which is her color, which is the Bratz color. You know, I had to relent. Yes, you did. And then you said, well, how about the one next to it from Dara? And I'm like, she's wearing a British flag outfit. This is no good. Well, let's go back to this green. This green is really bad and it's really if it was anything and and then you also mentioned that the Kamala doll I said Kamala instead of camera camera. Yeah, the camera doll is Doesn't look like her no no at all at all at all. No that was time to kneel Just threw some stuff together. So is it was a botch. Yeah. Yeah, it was a botch

1:32:59 And I don't think there was anything else. I did like the Act Blue grassroots cleaning professional showing their money laundering. And you just nixed that, period. Boom. Yeah, well, clearly you agree with me because you got chits. You got credit. So you would have pulled, you would have thrown in a credit, which you did. You did. You threw in a credit. You threw in... Lies. And I did also like Scaramangus Camela. Which is the camel with ah coming out of his mouth. I thought that yeah, and I thought it was just a pun That was no good. Okay. Well visual pun we congratulate Matthew dropko on Winning the a lot of we had some art to talk about at least yeah We did and it looks like we'll have more to talk about for this show is indeed. Yes funny stuff

1:33:49 Of course, we also like to thank our executive and associate executive producers because it is time, talent, and treasure. Treasure does need to flow in order for us to pay bills just like everybody else. And as you know, we can't do advertising or anything else because the show wouldn't have been on the air for almost 17 years. So we also give out credits for these amounts even though we're happy with anything. That's how value for value works. Whatever you can afford, whatever you find is the value that you receive from the show is good with us. That's all it is good with us. But like Hollywood, we'd like to thank our executive and associate executive producers. $200 and above, you're an associate executive producer, real credit. You can use it anywhere, including imdb.com, and we read your note. $300 and above, executive producer credit, and we read your note, and that of course is also valid wherever credits are accepted. And Sir Scovey, guy named Brad, comes in from Charlotte, North Carolina with

1:34:43 This is $350.93, so he says it's $333.33 plus fees. We appreciate that. A check will only be 15 cents, but we're good to go. Hello, gents!

1:35:18 And speaking of the lighter side of life, after resolving a minor tech issue recently from my smoking hot girlfriend, she said, you are the sexiest guy named Brad I know. Then she caught herself and said, wait, what is it? Oh, dude named Ben, I replied. We had a good laugh, a long one, and a new inside joke was born.

It really worked the last time, but things have shifted and there's a new target I'm aiming at. American manufacturing is alive and well in the Northwoods.

1:36:41 Thanks for all you do. Four more years, no jingles, no karma. Four more years! Baron of BNA, Nashville, Tennessee, 333.33, John and Adam, I spent yesterday afternoon in Mount Juliet. So Mount Juliet is a city in Tennessee. It exists next to another city called Nashville. Nashville is a bigger city. Nashville is a powerful city. This Nashville producer decided to invade a meetup in Mount Juliet. So basically that's everything that NOA Agenda stands for. This is a takeoff on Kamala with Russia and Ukraine. Got it! Thank you to Lady Vox for hosting the meetup. It was great to meet all the other producers, both local and from afar. Steve Banstra, Baron of BNA. Thank you, brother. It was good. Thomas, Thomas, Thomas, Lee's Summit, Missouri, 333.3.

1:37:34 Hello John and Adam, I feel like a long lost distant brother of you both's since I've been enjoying your jibber jabber and news analysis since the Cranky Geeks days. It's been a pleasure to have hit a few people in the mouth over the years and to be listening when they've donated to the best podcast in the universe. Can I get some bar exam karma for my son Blake? Who is taking the bar exam this week, your brother in truth, Thomas Thomas, aka TomTom. You've got karma. And now we move to our first associate executive producer, Dr. Sir Otter, baronet of the flatwater in Lincoln, Nebraska. A row of ducks, 222.22 says dear John and Adam, this podcast has been on fire lately.

1:38:25 As a no agenda trucker, there's another category of people we revere. Truckers, man. Trucker, trucker, trucker, truckers. They keep it all alive, keep it moving. I like to wait and listen to the podcast the next morning as I drive, but with all of this breaking news, I don't dare miss the live show. If only the donations would match your service to humanity. Time to call on all the dames and knights out there to support the show with a sustaining donation. Remember slaves, only you can save that sad puppy. Personally, I started a monthly donation last September after reviewing my accounting and I have achieved the baron level.

1:39:00 It works, it works. So title change, Dr. Sir Otter, Baron of the Flatwater. Also add me to the birthday list for July 30th. I will be 42, looking for relationship karma. Just a baron looking for a dame. And then he wants John's fisting nuts, which you hate. Kamala, Trump aroused. Kamala, don't come. Trump, I'm gonna come and yak karma. It's only 40 seconds. We don't play this one often. Just go for it John tell us your peeve about the fisting method of eating snacks on an airplane. I see this on the airplane and it's very annoying and I think it will result in fights breaking out because it's just so annoying to watch. Guy takes his bag of peanuts and throws a pile of them into his palm of his hand and then he makes a fist

1:39:51 around the nuts. And then he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut to the little hole. And then he throws a nut in his mouth from his fist. Then he does it again, he shakes and throws and shakes and throws. It is annoying as hell to watch. It was hard to get it aroused and it is hard to get it aroused, but we got it aroused. I'm gonna come. Oh wait, where was the karma don't come? Hold on a second. I'm sorry. Do not come. I'm gonna come. You've got karma. By the way, the entire extent of her being the czar of the border was that one comment.

1:40:44 She's far as she's concerned she did her job. Yeah, but you know it just as an aside because people sent me this legislation which is House Resolution 253 and if you look at House Resolution 253 It says, whereas on March, this was to expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that Vice President Kamala Harris should be removed from her position as the head of the Biden administration strategy to address the root causes of migration. Whereas on March 24th, 2021, Vice President Kamala Harris was named border czar in charge of leading efforts to stem migration across the United States-Mexico border.

1:41:27 So this was a resolution that never made it past introduction, but people are saying, well see she was the Borders Czar. Well, that was a bunch of Republicans, you know, calling her that in this resolution. But in general, she was put in charge of the border and everybody knows it. But yet... Yeah, I don't... This is another example of what I said earlier, which is this gaslighting and it's like Done deliberately, I thought there was some sincerity involved and I'm now doubting myself about that thesis. I think they're doing this purposefully and they're insincere and they're bastards. There you go. Gary Mao is up. He's in Port Hueneme.

I figure it's time to donate because you, because douchebaggery is not my style. You think she needs a de-douche? She's not asking for it, but...

1:45:39 I would think she'd get a... yeah, I would give her one anyway. You've been de-douched. I've been a fan of Adam's Headbangers Ball and respect both of you. Thank you for what you do and keep it real. Rock on! Rock on, sister! Rock on! And there he is, Eli the Coffee Guy from Bensonville, Illinois, 20728. I'd like to shout out a product made by a fellow producer. We came across Long Drink while on vacation in the Upper Peninsula. I heard about this fine adult beverage during a donation segment a few years ago when the owner mentioned it. I have to say they make a dynamite product. I'm not normally a gin drinker, but it's a great summertime sipper. Very refreshing with a perfectly balanced flavor.

1:46:24 Now fishing in the afternoon is even better. And for a great morning beverage, visit gigawattcoffeeroasters.com. Use code ITM20 for 20% off of your coffee order. Stay caffeinated, says Eli the Coffee Guy. And I will recommend if anybody has a chance of going to the upper peninsula of Florida, No, Colorado. He's talking about Illinois where no he's talking about Upper Peninsula Michigan. Oh, is that where he is? Okay, and It's dynamite. It's just a dynamite place. It's really weird. It's kind of like old-fashioned. It's like especially if you're hammered on jammered on gin. Yeah, it would be probably useful Linda Lou Patkins up. She's in Lakewood, Colorado 200 bucks for normal

1:47:17 donation which and she's always does this she asked for jobs karma and then says For a faster more effective job search visit image makers Inc comm that's image makers Inc with a K your go to For executive resumes and John by the way go check that website. That's really pretty very slick. Hmm I work with Linda Lou Duchess of Jobs and writer of resumes so you can find her on the list somebody wrote me a note Hey, what was that website name? And I said, oh really? Yeah, and I said wow so much repetition. Wow there you go advertising works everybody. Jobs, jobs, jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. Now this is a little weird unless she came in again because I remember Tiara Carr from Baltimore from the last show with $200

1:48:11 with a birthday wish to her fiancé Alex Schlegel. So either, because he's on the 30th, which would make sense since that's in between shows, but it was on the last list so I'm not sure if she donated again. You know, if somebody donates near the midnight hour, it can have all kinds of problems. Sometimes you get double credit and sometimes you don't get credited at all. I'm going to do it. I am going to give for the benefit of the doubt. Hello! Hello! I'd like to wish my amazing fiancé Alex Schlegel a very happy 44th birthday on July 30th and donate $200 to No Agenda on his behalf. He has been an avid listener for a long time. I hope he can now be de-douched. Well, we're going to de-de-douche him for you. You've been de-douched. Thank you so much, says Tiara Carr. And that concludes our... And by the way, that should be a switcheroo. Yes. I'm pretty sure he's not... Okay. It's fine.

1:51:04 Well, breaking news everybody. land and future industries as well. WJS Christine Flores is joining us live with details. Christine. Well, good evening. We are at Steelworkers Park, where by the year 2027, this will be the new home of the Quantum Computer Campus. Now, this was the former site of the U.S. Steelworkers South plant, which closed more than 30 years ago.

1:51:42 Right here beneath our feet will be a catalyst for a potential revolution in science and technology and the betterment of life for all humankind. The quantum computing campus will be located off 87th Street in South Distalbo Lakeshore Drive in the city's far south side and will be built by California-based tech company Psi Quantum. It's the site of the former US Steel Southworks plant. With this multi-billion dollar investment from Psi Quantum, Quantum computing will be the premier industry of Chicago's future. During a press conference Thursday afternoon, officials estimated the facility to be about 300,000 square feet and employ up to 150 people within five years. But an even longer term plan is for it to provide answers to a number of career fields. The potential applications are vast and transformative from developing new life-saving drugs

1:52:37 and next generation electric batteries and solar cells. This quantum computer will change how the world lives, works, and heals. We're gonna change the way you heal everybody. This is interesting. Now let me get this straight. So you're gonna put in this quantum computer and nobody knows if these things even work at all? Oh no, they don't even claim that it works. And out of the blue, it's gonna create new drugs. It's new ways of healing. The investors, no they have not developed the quantum computer yet. But their investors are BlackRock, the Founders Fund. Oh, they're finally getting the dumb money and that's good. Microsoft's Venture Fund, Redpoint, Third Point, Atomico, government partnerships with the U.S. Department of Energy, Queensland government. Soak the taxpayer while you're at it. That's right, that's right. We need to get in on this.

1:53:31 PsyQuantum has one mission, to build and deploy the first useful quantum computers. It was founded in 2015. How we doing boys? 10 years later. But they're building thousands of wafers of quantum chips. Okay, perfect. But that wasn't the only Completely hilarious bogus tech news. This one, I love this because it's shaking up everything in Silicon Valley. Whoa, boy, oh boy, breaking news. Got some breaking news right now on OpenAI, speaking of AI and chat GPT and Steve Kovac has the details. Steve. Hey there, Dom. Yeah, OpenAI is getting into the search business. They just announced here in a blog post minutes ago that they were testing a prototype version of a search product.

1:54:20 You can see Google shares just reacting here down better than 2% now as soon as this announcement crossed. This looks like it's an early version. They're having users sign up for a wait list. If you've ever used the app from the startup Perplexity DOM, you're probably very familiar with how these AI search engines work. You ask a question, it gives you the direct answer. You can ask follow-up questions. You're seeing some examples here from the OpenAI product here. And then it also holds in real-time results from the web and gives you the sources from those results as well. OpenAI here says they are working with publishers and other websites to make sure they have proper access to all of this information and properly credited and so forth. It does sound like early days, but just the fact that OpenAI here is getting involved in the search business, you can see what it's doing here to Google.

1:55:13 the Alphabet earnings just a couple days ago, Dom, they were talking about their AI search product and how that's driving engagement, but still very few details whether or not that's gonna be a big money maker for Google, but we clearly see what the market thinks with OpenAI getting into the search game, Dom. I love this. This is an example of the kind of reporting I'm talking about. It's just boosterism. Yeah, but I love it. The guy does no, you know, if you ask this thing 10 questions, nine of them will be completely wrong.

1:55:56 Here's what we're doing wrong. We have a great search engine being it dot IO now We'd I think let me just check it. Let me just check being it dot sir deanonymous put this together It's a real product by that being it dot IO and Yes, and it's actually his product. He's he's money's monetizing this product now. It's called clip genie and it's powered by AI but The beauty of the NO Agenda show with its 17 years of history and we have 17 years of transcripts, clips and news articles in there and did I mention it's powered by AI?

1:56:37 We should get some venture money. Yeah, right. We should get some venture money. Just give me a topic any topic and I'll show you that our AI search is better than any of these guys. Just give me a topic any topic any topic any topic any topic candy manufacturing candy manufacturing Okay, we type it in Well, the first hit we have is a 1497 bug peeps and 3D printed candy bars, we were talking about that. So that's a thing, I think it's a good hit, good result. 1434, we have technology the size of a candy bar. I'm telling you, this is a great search engine. But what did you want to know specifically?

1:57:27 I just, you just asked for a topic. I didn't have any desire. FDA approves candy flavored amphetamine for kids. I mean, I'm telling you we have the best. That's always a good, we should revisit that topic. Bingit.io everybody is fantastic. Seriously, it's better than this nonsense and unlike those guys, it's free because they failed to mention there's no business model in it for them. And the final piece of tech news, tech news, because tech news, just big tech, AI and the socials, the Justice Department is in its fight now. It's a lawsuit with TikTok. And so they're releasing just some

1:58:09 basic bullcrap information. The Justice Department accuses TikTok of secretly collecting sensitive bulk data on American users for China. The data includes views of divisive topics like gun control, abortion and religion. The Justice Department says this would allow China in theory to manipulate TikTok's feed to create division and undermine American democracy. This was the DOJ's first response to the lawsuit filed by parent company ByteDance, who is suing the US government over a bill banning TikTok if the Chinese firm does not sell the American portion of its operation. So notice that they say in theory they could be selling, they could be giving this to China. They're not saying they gave it to China.

1:58:55 Whereas not even theoretical Google and Microsoft and Microsoft in particular are actually selling your information to the highest bidder on the open market. Including China. Including China. Microsoft has a lot of its operations in China. Yeah, it's horrible. All right, I think I feel obliged we need to discuss the Olympics briefly as we had the... Well before you do that I want to stay on China. China? Yeah, I have some China clips I want to get out of the way. All right. Because this is important. This is this is not being covered by anybody. Yes. This you sent me this video and I looked at it and I was like I was like, wow, who knew? It's in the show notes. It is in the show notes. It's worth 13 minutes of wow.

1:59:47 Yes, it's 13 minutes of wow. And this is the part I thought was the most interesting. It begins with a bunch of fires that are going on in China. China's on the verge of a civil war, according to at least this commentator. And where was this from, this video? I forget. It says one of these Chinese operations. I mean, it's not from China. It's called China Today or China Watch or something. It's a negative. They're not pro-China by any means, you can tell. But they're Something that has shown up on NHK and elsewhere is these unbelievable debts that the small Chinese provinces have developed in the trillions and trillions and it's believed that the Chinese government as a whole is in the hole for as much as we are with our ridiculous debt. Yeah, you know why? Because they don't have any Bitcoin.

2:00:36 Yeah, that's the reason. So here we go. China's civil war won. Back in the days under the collective economy in rural China, it is estimated that over 30 to 40 million farmers starved to death. Xi Jinping has not acknowledged this period in public statements. Critics argue that his policies reflect a continuation of practices from the Mao Zedong era, which they claim led to significant loss of life. In preparation for this so-called internal war, Xi Jinping has been laying the groundwork for some time. At a recent military political work conference in Yan'an, besides the official statements published by state media, attendees reported that he also gave an impromptu speech.

2:01:18 This speech has circulated through various channels, corroborated by multiple independent sources, and it seems to be a presciented revelation. Its content aligns closely with Xi's actual political maneuvers. In the speech, he admonished the entire CCP. We are in Yan'an today for a military meeting preparing for internal war. You must realize that we are facing severe economic and political crisis and internal war. The war has already begun. If we do not respond with war, our party and government will go bankrupt. You've seen the establishment of police tax combat centers nationwide. This is a wartime state.

2:01:59 comrades. We will not overcome this crisis if we do not use combat to collect taxes, just like the Kuomintang blockade in Vietnam back then. It really works better with the visuals because you see the tanks rolling out and you see the marching soldiers and everything. Yes, and you also see the hyper-rich Chinese. The idea here is that they think that they're going to go broke, China, which a lot of people have suspected. And so Xi's decided to Collect get the money back from the Chinese billionaires. Well, why don't they just print more money like it like we do? Well, they do that too. It doesn't help so they're going to tax future This is our future that the US government will just roll out the tanks that collect the money from the billionaires I don't know if that's the case here. It's not they're not making plans for it. I

2:02:54 But they are in China according to this report. And they want to take the billionaire class and they want to soak them and take all their money. At gunpoint. at gunpoint and redistribute the wealth. I mean this is of course more likely in a communist society which it still is kind of and so then there's and there's too many billionaires in China. I think there's more there than there are here and so they're going to just soak them and here we go with part two. Now the US and western economies are blockading us. We are fighting on two fronts just like before. Now the police and tax authorities are cooperating to trace back 30 years and reclaim the surplus value from the wealthy. Wasn't agreed that the rich would help the poor? Now we have to confiscate their wealth through combat forcefully. If we don't, how can we survive this crisis? If the police-tax collaboration fails to resolve the economic dilemma, we must implement a wartime economy. If necessary, the military must step in.

2:03:55 If economic discontent builds up to a critical mass, with mass bankruptcies of individuals, banks and enterprises, a storm will arise that could threaten our state power. Our country and our party cannot go bankrupt. Although the authenticity of the leaked internal speech attributed to Xi Jinping cannot be verified, it appears to reflect elements of his governance strategy. The speech suggests a focus on addressing internal challenges through stringent measures, indicates a strategy that includes using forceful means to collect tax and reclaim citizens' property. Additionally, the concept of a wartime economy aligns with economic, political and military measures Xi has implemented in recent years.

2:04:38 Observers suggest that if an economic crisis escalates, it could lead to a significant social unrest and potential violence. If I may drop some knowledge on you, China has 406 billionaires according to Forbes as of April 2024. They are number two on the list. Number one is the United States in fact with 813 billionaires. Well, they're not gonna be 400 much longer. You know, it's number three Saudi Arabia India. Oh, yeah, that makes sense Saudi Arabia. Are they even on the chart? No, they're probably get one so so the so the thing that's gonna happen because this happened when in 97 98 era when the Communists were gonna get Hong Kong back. There was a flight and

2:05:40 Most of them went to Canada, the Canadians offered full citizenship for I think $250,000 if I'm not mistaken, maybe more by the time it started really getting going and they just fled. And that's what's gonna happen with these 400 billionaires are gonna take their, as much money as they can get out of the country which is not easy to do but it's doable. and leave. They're gonna come here. They're gonna come here. They're gonna come here, put their money in our stuff, and the next thing you know, you're gonna have a bunch of rich Chinese over here that'll be spending, you know, the same way they did over there, or at least gonna be over here. Hey, Lee, you wanna buy some Bitcoin? It's gonna be a bonanza for us. Hey, we can take some investment for our AI-powered search engine.

2:06:29 Now you're talking, let's go with the last clip. The speech acknowledges that during Mao's era everything could be covered up. All crimes were hidden. The CCP's propaganda is filled with so much misleading information and even the unprecedented tragedy of millions starving to death was sealed off completely. So much so that young people today still can't believe it. attributing it to natural disasters. However, a total censorship is no longer possible. In a crisis, the truth cannot be hidden. Under the CCP rule, the Chinese populace has faced significant restrictions on human rights. Currently, Xi Jinping's administration faces substantial challenges in maintaining credibility both domestically and internationally.

2:07:09 There is notable disparity between state propaganda and the actual conditions within the country. As a result, many Chinese citizens are increasingly skeptical of state media and are seeking alternative sources of information. Yeah, and so they were shown a whole bunch of video of explosions and all kinds of weird stuff happening. Yeah, some great videos, but everyone's got a camera phone and you know, what are you gonna do? You can't stop that. People pass them around, they get on the net. You said that just like Obama phone. That's a camera phone. Yes. Yeah? So they guess this could be bogus, but it's at least something we should be aware of. Well, they put a lot of effort into creating this video if it's bogus. I'm not quite sure. Well, that and it is well known that there are huge, and there's a lot of research companies that have been looking into it. They've done studies on just the amount of light output in the various areas. Yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. You can tell how things are going.

2:08:10 Yeah, you can tell things are going by how lit up it is. And it's not looking good. So, well, there's something to think about. Well, we need to keep them big and scary because, you know, we got to build huge ships. No, we can do that anyway. So the yeah, you're right. We would this information may may actually be a detriment to our schemes. Well, let's hope not. We need ships. And subs. Big beautiful sleek subs. Deeper than any other subs they go. So the Olympics started. Oh my god! Let's listen to the NPR report of the four-hour opening show. Extraordinary, audacious, impertinent, full of surprises. You know, Paris became an open-air theater last night with performances along rooftops, the riverbanks, the monuments.

2:09:04 12 amazing tableaus unfolded with scenes like liberty and darkness, Lady Gaga on Ile de la Cité performing with pink plumes on a piano, a French Revolution scene with a hard rock band and Marie Antoinette's decapitated head speaking from a window in the castle where she was actually held prisoner before her guillotining, a hooded medieval character ran across the Paris rooftops with the Olympic flame, a glowing white horseman galloped down the middle of the river, hung beautifully from the scaffolding of Notre Dame. Any room for the, you know, the athletes? Of course. There were 85 boats carrying 6,800 waving athletes from 205 nations. They sailed by in the river procession in the middle of it all. They looked excited with smiles on their faces, something we haven't seen in the last two Olympics because of COVID. Scott, did I mention the stunning light show at the Eiffel Tower?

2:09:57 I think he just did. Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, it all ended with the flame coming back down the river in a speedboat driven by tennis stars Serena Williams, Rafael Nadal, USA sprinter Carl Lewis and Romanian gymnast Nadia Comaneci, remember her? Yes. To the Tuileries Gardens where it was lifted up into the dark Paris sky over the Louvre in a hot air balloon while Celine Dion, who hasn't sung in four years, belted out a classic from French icon Edith Piaf. Oh, my word. Oh my word, NPR really have their finger on the pulse of the nation as you can tell because there was a little controversy but before we get to that there's more of this NPR report. I gotta tell you the Marie Antoinette stuff shook me up a bit. Such a spectacular production. Any problems?

2:10:42 Well, the rain. It came down almost the whole time, but it didn't bother everyone. We spoke to Daniela Rodriguez from New Jersey. Listen to her. It was rainy, but it was worth it. Definitely. I like to lean beyond everything on the river, the horse, horses floating through the water. But carrying the flame through the river too. You know, and this morning Scott I spoke to my neighbor 70 year old Pierrette Picocque who said she was glued to her TV for four hours last night. Listen to her. Pure magic, a huge moment for France and she added that she was also relieved that everything went well. NPR now just going to their neighbors for reporting. There were those attacks on the high-speed train network in the early hours of yesterday. How did that affect the ceremony?

2:11:29 Yeah, that sabotage, coordinated sabotage, you know, briefly crippled train service. A huge investigation is underway. But, you know, it didn't affect the ceremony, but it made people a little jittery before the opening. The security's been massive. They had to anticipate threats from the sky, the ground, the water, even under the water. sonar and anti-drones. There were 50,000 police officers and soldiers on the streets of the capital. Scott, they closed the Paris airspace for six hours. That's unprecedented. Oh my God, the security was amazing. Before we get to another clip about the opening, here's a brief, I thought funny little, I call it a gaffe, but I think it could be used.

2:12:08 of the security, the security, oh my, please let's go to the streets and tell us about the security. Hey good morning Robin, you mentioned that tight security, this is what that looks like, check it out, the Arc de Trump is just behind me. Now what did you hear her say? Arc de Trump. Yes, exactly, like Arc de Trump, I'm like that's great. Arc de Trump. Yeah, that's great, Arc de Trump. What a moron. So did you see any of the opening games, John? The opening of the games. Did you see any of the... I saw the opening ceremonies, what you said. Yes, the opening ceremony. Did you see any of the ceremonies? Yes, it was dreadful. They had can-can dancers that were uncoordinated, falling, kicking with the wrong leg, not kicking, a guy...

2:11:29 Yeah, that sabotage, coordinated sabotage, you know, briefly crippled train service. A huge investigation is underway. But, you know, it didn't affect the ceremony, but it made people a little jittery before the opening. The security's been massive. They had to anticipate threats from the sky, the ground, the water, even under the water. sonar and anti-drones. There were 50,000 police officers and soldiers on the streets of the capital. Scott, they closed the Paris airspace for six hours. That's unprecedented. Oh my God, the security was amazing. Before we get to another clip about the opening, here's a brief, I thought funny little, I call it a gaffe, but I think it could be used.

2:12:08 of the security, the security, oh my, please let's go to the streets and tell us about the security. Hey good morning Robin, you mentioned that tight security, this is what that looks like, check it out, the Arc de Trump is just behind me. Now what did you hear her say? Arc de Trump. Yes, exactly, like Arc de Trump, I'm like that's great. Arc de Trump. Yeah, that's great, Arc de Trump. What a moron. So did you see any of the opening games, John? The opening of the games. Did you see any of the... I saw the opening ceremonies, what you said. Yes, the opening ceremony. Did you see any of the ceremonies? Yes, it was dreadful. They had can-can dancers that were uncoordinated, falling, kicking with the wrong leg, not kicking, a guy...

2:12:56 It was, it couldn't kick at all. It was, it would, that was one thing. Then they had a sacrilegious scene of drag queens pretending to be at the Last Supper, Christ's Last Supper. It was, totally blasphemous. Then they had some sort of a play that was taking place with a guy dressed as a harlequin in a library and some girl flirting with him and then a guy flirting with him and he runs off with the guy in some sort of gay tryst. The whole thing was gross. At some point I just turned it off because it was just ridiculous. It was terrible.

2:13:33 Yeah, and that was the general consensus. I don't know where NPR gets their reporting from. They didn't watch it. I don't think they did either. I think that they just read the rundown of what was going to happen because without a doubt on the social medias there was a lot of people just like, well this is not good. What is happening here? Now, I got this clip. It's a local clip. Because one of the, I think C Spire is one of the big, or certainly a large advertiser on the Olympic Games. And they're pulling out of their- Who? C Spire? C Spire? Oh, I don't know who. Yeah, C Spire, what do they do? They're a tech company, I think. Hold on, C Spire. They are, yeah, internet, wireless, business IT solutions. I think they're pretty big. I've never heard of them, but okay. They got huge buildings.

2:14:30 huge buildings. When you see the logo, you're like, oh yeah, I've seen that logo. This was surprisingly unlike NPR, well not surprisingly, unlike NPR, a balance report specifically about the Last Supper part. Well, I love Lady Gaga and Celine Dion, but I thought it was very disrespectful and sacrilegious. Mississippians are responding to the Paris Olympics Open Ceremony, the ceremony not only getting backlash from viewers, but also local companies. This is during the performance does not align with Christian values at all. I think it's just indicative of how that people tend to criticize a Christian's religion rather than any other religion. It wouldn't have flown if it had been against the Muslim religion or another religion.

2:15:35 Others feel the open cere and has nothing to do wit was meant by that piece. checking in a little bit piece that was being pull pulling in the Italian Last Supper part at all. We reached out to C Spire, the president and CEO Susie Hayes saying C Spire is supportive of our athletes who have worked so hard to be a part of the Olympics. However, we will not be a part of the offensive and unacceptable mockery of the Last Supper, which is why we're pulling our advertising from the Olympics.

2:16:15 Governor Tate Reeves also went to Twitter standing in full support of C Spire's decision saying, I am proud to see the private sector in Mississippi step up and put their foot down. God will not be mocked. Oh, he's quoting Galatians 6. God will not be mocked. And you know, the power went out supposedly or apparently a lot of pictures in most of Paris and people were posting that on social media saying God will not be mocked. Now the organizers themselves, those responsible for this opening ceremony say it was a big misunderstanding. This was not the Last Supper. It was a depiction of the ancient Greek Bacchanal,

2:16:56 Of course, the games are Greek games. Bacchanalia. No, the blue guy, the blue dude, that would be the god of wine. And these... Bacchus. Bacchus, yes. And this is Dionysus. Dionysus. That's what I'm saying. The Greek god of fertility, later known as the god of wine and pleasure. And so this was a depiction of the hedonism of the day of the Olympic Games. Now of course we all saw that you know we had the fat

2:17:31 The fat dude with a golden crown in the middle I mean there was definitely a little wink there towards the Last Supper Also, it wasn't it wasn't death on the pale horse. That was sequana goddess of the sand the river anyway big miss big miss by the Olympics and what really stuck out forget the the religious aspect is What was with all the dudes and the gayness and the trannies? Is that, I mean, France may be humorless and burn their churches, but I didn't think they were stupid.

2:18:11 I mean this was just it was unbelievable it was probably the worst opening ceremony for the last 20 years especially when compared to what China did. Oh I mean which was not only elaborate but tasteful this was this was not tasteful that's the real problem. Exactly bring back the days of Lionel Richie flying in with a white piano come on people this was it made no sense now I mean but Forever this will be known as the Olympics that mocked the Last Supper. They just blew it. They blew it big time. And I say blew it intentionally. And they had kids with all the drag queens. It was weird. Like why? Why? And I don't want to watch the Olympics now. It's put a bad taste in my mouth. Again, pun intended.

2:19:05 You're full of puns. I am. So a little more color about the organization. There was another gaffe, of course. I mean, if the French screw up once, they're going to go all the way. Newtonite at five, Olympic organizers say they are deeply sorry for a major mistake during yesterday's opening ceremonies. The public address announcer identified South Korean athletes as representing the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. That's the official name for North Korea. South Korea goes by the Republic of Korea. Olympic leadership says the mix-up was a regrettable mistake. South Korean officials have requested a meeting with the International Olympic Committee. Today is the 71st anniversary of the Korean Armistice. I think the Pope should call for a meeting. I want a meeting! I'm the Pope. I want a meeting. What are you people thinking?

2:19:57 So this they're sorry about, oh I'm really sorry about that, sorry about that Korea. Didn't mean to do it. Yeah that's what they're sorry about, they should be sorry about the whole thing. And then NBC and their infinite wisdom somehow not only, I mean I don't know who did the deal with Snoop Dogg to carry the Olympic flame? But he also is an official commentator for NBC Sports everybody. This is awesome. Snoop had a great time. He is going to be with us during these games and joins us now. Snoop, what was it like to carry the Olympic torch on the day of the opening ceremony? Mike, it's too hard to put in words, baby. I mean, the D.O. Double was holding the torch

2:20:38 walking through the city, man, I felt like Muhammad Ali. It was extraordinary, it was excellent, and I found out that when you hold the torch, you a peace messenger. So I really felt good about that. Tell me about the people. Were you looking at the folks who, as you were going by, were just waving, taking pictures and sharing the moment with you? Mike, I was waving, shaking hands, kissing the babies, doing what I do. You understand me? Putting my foot in the pavement, letting the people know that we here. We're here for peace, love and unity and great sportsmanship. That's what we're here for, baby. Nothing says sportsmanship like Snoop Dogg, everybody.

2:21:15 That was weird. Unbelievable. I mean, you know, they paid Celine Dion one million flat. Well, she deserved it. And, you know, she's got a million dollars to sing one song. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Nobody deserves that. Yeah, she does. She's dying. She's in a horrible condition. And then Lady Gaga, Lady Gaga was on the scene. And then at the very end, as we had torrential rains... Unfortunately, the swimmers weren't the only ones getting wet today in Paris. Downpours drenched beach volleyball, athletes and spectators alike. Skateboarding was postponed, but the women's cycling time trial was not.

2:21:56 There were a lot of crashes the heavy rainfall could also cause sewage to overflow into the Seine affecting water quality Sunday's practice session for triathletes and distance swimmers may be canceled with Tuesday's competition in jeopardy But hopefully we get a swim bike and run because I don't swim this much to just run and bike So I don't know what she said So, torrential rains because God will not be mocked. And then at the end, at the very end, they hoisted the Olympic flag and it was upside down. I didn't see that because I already tuned out. Yeah, it was. But I heard about it being upside down. Upside down. Yeah, well, it means they're in distress. You flip the flag over, you're in distress. And they, I think, are. And I agree with you about the events. It's like,

2:22:51 It's like the whole thing, it's soured. I think it's soured a lot of people and NBC is partly responsible. And ultimately the people who do these types of big shows, they are globalist Satanists. We've seen it time and time again. Every single time. Oh, opening a time. I didn't even think of that angle. Yeah, I think that's what they're doing. That's why they show all this hedonistic stuff. There's no real... I mean, was it funny to show Marie Antoinette with her cut off head? I mean... No, it wasn't funny. It was kind of creepy. And it wasn't just one of them, by the way. There was a bunch of duplicates in different windows. Would you have chosen that as show art?

2:23:30 Sorry, would you have chosen a Marie Antoinette with a real course not know because it's what is it? It's gruesome gruesome It's so if the no agenda show won't even put that on on on show art I mean these this is all satanic. They are that's just what they are. Did you see the guy who produced this thing? Oh my god He's got all kinds of satanic tattoos and devil worship. It's sickening. That's interesting. I didn't know any of that. Yeah, and I like that it came out this way so that people can finally see that these people are not okay.

2:24:09 It's like every single big ceremony. Oh man, what? The Grammys. Not in China. They got other problems. They're in the midst of a civil war. Japan doesn't screw it up either. They're in the midst of a civil war. No, America did well. We did, again, was the last time we... Yeah, we did okay. Lionel Richie, white pianos, beautiful. When was the last? Was that 84? Yeah, this was, I didn't think of it as satanic, but now that you mention it, it was. Oh, please. Oh, please. Absolutely. That's what they do. And the worst part is France, you know, you think that they have taste. They know how to put on a show. No, they're burning down their churches over there. They don't care. They don't care. Well, it's a humiliation for them. As it should be.

2:25:03 Let's see, of course while this all took place we had all kinds of bad stuff going on in the Middle East and in Israel. We had another tit-for-tat, kill some people over here, kill some people over there. Oh yeah, let's expand this, let's bring in Hezbollah. There are growing fears that a conflict between Israel and Hezbollah As Israel continues its war with Hamas in Gaza, at least 30 people died after airstrikes destroyed a school serving as a shelter for displaced Palestinians. Israeli military says it was targeting a Hamas command center. Meantime, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is blaming Hezbollah for a rocket attack on a soccer field in Golan Heights.

2:25:53 11 people died in that airstrike. Hezbollah says it was targeting a military location. So this is just a new thing. I'm gonna kill some citizens. There was a military installation under that soccer field. I'm gonna kill some citizens over there in the hospital or whatever. The kids are hiding. They had a military installation there. Stop it. Stop it, you idiots. And Bibi spoke in the Senate, we heard about that and then as was scheduled he went to go see the 45th President of the United States at his home estate in Mar-a-Lago. It's a photo op Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rearranged his schedule to get meeting with former President Donald Trump amid growing pressure to secure a ceasefire and hostage deal in Gaza. I think there's been some movement because of our

2:26:45 the military pressure that we exerted. Netanyahu says Israeli negotiators are going to Rome for talks that include Qatar, Egypt and the US CIA director. Friday's meeting is the first between Trump and Netanyahu since 2020. Trump insists They remain on good terms despite having expressed outrage that Netanyahu congratulated President Biden for his win over Trump in 2020. But there is tension in Netanyahu's relationship with President Biden over the ongoing Gaza war. His meetings with Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, an address to Congress and movements around Washington were followed by thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters. Netanyahu is walking a fine line.

2:27:27 not knowing who will be in the White House come January. It's no secret the Israeli leader would prefer a Trump administration, but there's a newly re-energized Harris campaign, and she promises to be more outspoken on the war in Gaza. We cannot look away in the face of these tragedies. We cannot allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering, and I will not be silent. Good. Gaza. Yeah, yeah. Well, so now the race is on. This is a political point at this. If Harris is smart, she'll hang back a little bit. But the fear is, as we've discussed, the fear is that Trump is going to negotiate a peace deal.

2:28:09 And he'll keep this running a little bit longer, but maybe an October surprise, something to make him look like the big peacemaker. Here's the NTD Netanyahu rap. Let me see. Under Netanyahu. Yeah, I don't see Netanyahu. It's there. No? Would it start with Netanyahu? Yeah, and no I have Monica Crowley morning Joe hate and then pastor Manning I don't have an I don't have a net in Yahoo. Is it called something else you do? It's from the last show. Sorry. Oh, we have to look it up I can find that but just want you to know that you know, yeah, yeah I'm looking at the wrong. I'm looking at the wrong call sheet. Yeah Because you know you you kind of you kind of like scoffed at me there

2:29:10 So which one? Netanyahu in Congress? One, two and three? Overview. Overview. Ah, got it. Okay. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint session of Congress for the fourth time today. The first foreign leader ever to do so. He thanked the U.S. for its support and made a case for why the U.S. should keep supplying Israel with tools to fight Hamas. You can stop it. No good? No, he played it already. I remember playing it already. I just didn't exit off. It's my mistake. I screwed up. It's okay. It's okay. Hey, before we go to light clips, I've received

2:29:58 word from several air traffic controllers. Oh, I want to hear about this. What was the story again that we had? It was on the previous show. Well, we can play that clip again. It's under ATC. You can look it up on there. Yes, yes, I have it here. Another airport public safety issue is being resolved. Air traffic controllers will be getting longer rest breaks between shifts. The Federal Aviation Administration announced longer rest breaks for air traffic tower workers. A scientific panel assessed the risk of fatigue and recommended 10 to 12 hours between shifts. In the 2025 contract agreement between the FAA and the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, tower workers will get 10 hours off between shifts.

2:30:40 Those who work at midnight will have 12 hours off before and after the shift. The agreement also includes fewer in successive overtime assignments. Union Chief Rich Santa says air traffic controller fatigue has been an issue for years. He believes the new deal, quote, will begin to provide relief to the understaffed workforce. The FAA has already had to reduce the number of flights in New York and Florida because of the lack of controllers. To help ease the shortage, FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker says the agency plans to hire and train more than 1,500 controllers this year. So, the anonymous controller sent in a note, his wife sent in a note as well, so I'm going to read pieces from each. Are they both controllers?

2:31:30 This year might be. The claim made on this news segment is there will be less overtime required shifts, fewer and successive overtime assignments. Please, what a joke. We've been working six days a week for years with little relief due to low staffing. And I'm going to get to that why that is in a moment. So he says, there's a minimum number that has to be met before planes start getting rerouted around airspace. They don't magically stop, so that's false of this news report. They just fly longer. My wife emailed me, I'm going to do that. The flight does not get cancelled, they simply get moved to other airspace at times

2:32:12 Overloading other controlling airspace. New York, Washington and Cleveland are notorious for this. Now, here is the longer note responding to your discussion about hiring air traffic controllers. By the way, if you're new to the No Agenda Show, this is why we are literally the best podcast in the universe because we have producers in every line of work. All we have to do is send out a bat signal. Here's the details. In 2023, there were over 12,000 applicants, but only 1,500 applicants were selected. At first glance, this may seem like the FAA has a highly selective process, but you'd be wrong to assume that.

2:32:49 The generation that is joining the workforce is the generation of children who have been on ADHD medication since they were in preschool. As you are aware, but others may not be, you can't control airplanes if you've ever been on or are currently on SSRIs without a medical waiver, which takes years to get from a flight surgeon and would never happen for a new hire. So 20-somethings are now feeling one of the many very real consequences of their parents allowing overzealous doctors to indiscriminately prescribe Adderall and antidepressants to them as children. Along with that, yes, you and John were correct. We were correct in your assessment that they are probably doing a lot of DEI hiring, sort of. That's been happening for about 10 years.

2:33:35 and failing miserably, so now we're seeing an influx of boring white men come through the door because, who would have guessed it, the people who dominated the career field before DEI are the same people who are good at the job. I can say this because I'm not a white man. And while I've got your ear, let me complain that DEI has actually caused pilots to question me, so this is the anonymous controller's wife, so I guess she's not white, she's black, DEI complaints has actually caused pilots to question me and doubt me because they hear my voice and assume I'm a DEI hire instead of a competent controller who has been doing this job for a total of 15 years including military time. DEI erodes all good things. I agree and this is a theme that came up in the show, actually you and Mo did this, about the fear and I've heard this from other sources

2:34:34 The fear that the entire idea of DEI is to discredit black people. It's what's happening. Yeah, and she's telling us what's going on. She's probably extremely competent with her background. 15 years including military, I mean, come on. So this is what is done. Thank you, Larry Fink, BlackRock. Was your idea very, very destructive? Yeah, this is a... yeah, Democrats at work. You can just blame it on... Okay. Yeah. Well, I guess. I guess. It's sad. That makes me mad. And I never question my air traffic controllers. Mainly because if you question them, they'll be like, hey... Go around for the next hour. Why don't you fly to Houston and come back for a landing in Dallas? Nope. No, no. I'm trusting my controllers.

2:35:37 I want to play a call in on C-Span. Oh, all right. This has been, this is new. No, it's not new. We've done it before. No, I mean normally, I mean I've been doing that beat for a while. Tolar sends me at least three a day. Most of them are not usable, so you must have something really good here. Well, it's because I have a comment. Now this is the C-SPAN Linda McGovern clip. It's not from Linda McGovern, it's about McGovern. And I want to contradict what she has to say, having been a voter at the 72 election. Who was Linda McGovern?

2:36:19 No, it's not Linda McGovern. It's a woman named Linda. Oh, about talking about McGovern. Okay, here we go. Next call is Linda and Linda is in Dobbins, California, Democrat. Linda, do you think the president made the right decision by dropping out of the race? Oh my gosh, you know, I was going to vote for him because I have complete faith in Joe Biden. I first got interested in politics when I was in high school. I did a report and and exam the 68th Convention, and it got me totally stirred in politics. Then I watched the whole Nixon debacle, and I voted in 72 for the very first time, and you had just said that

2:37:05 Biden came in as senator, I believe he said in 72, and then he ran for office in 87. And that, you know, when you think back about plagiarism and then all of the corruption now in this time, oh my gosh, you know how crazy the difference is. I was going to vote for Biden back then. I'm so proud of him. He's got so much class, integrity, morals. You know, he's just everything that our country needs, you know, and especially at a time like this. And for him to step down and pass a gauntlet to Kamala Harris, I am so proud of him. I am so proud to be, you know, a supporter of his. And I'm from California and I know Kamala Harris and I voted for her every single time she was up for election. I vote every single election. Linda, where were you living? Where were you living in 1972 when you cast your first vote?

2:38:05 San Francisco. And did you vote for George McGovern? Yeah, it was like two evil. Which one? Which one was, you know, it was one of those elections where I wasn't proud to vote for either one, but I had already gotten a clue about Nixon. So McGovern was the only other choice. But, you know, live and learn, right? Sometimes you have to vote for the lesser of two evils. And at this particular point, I'm so proud to vote for Kamala Harris.

2:38:44 Okay, now weren't you involved? Oh my god. We're just involved in the campaign. This is why this theme of this show is the Democrats are literally stupid. And this by the way, McGovern was the anti-war, this is probably the last anti-war candidate that the Democrats ever had. McGovern stems from the fact that Eugene McCarthy was upsetting the apple cart and came in and got very popular with the students and all the anti-war people. in 72 because the war was dragging on, the Vietnam War. So he was going to get the nomination and then Robert Kennedy came along and kind of just pushed him out of the way in a very awkward way that nobody liked. And then he got killed. Yes, bummer. And so then there were the Democrats again like they are now, were scrambling around but they wanted to keep their anti-war stance solid. And so they brought in McGovern who was a sweetheart.

2:39:43 Hardly the lesser of two evils as she described it. In fact, her description is disgusting and probably just a lie or stupid or maybe she's a warmonger. I don't know but I just when I heard this clip I got very annoyed by it. Yeah, because McGovern was anything but the lesser of two evils to anyone voting in 1972. Can I suggest something here? Because you say your theme for the show is Democrats are stupid. Is it possible they've been put under a hexed spell of some sort? Wow, yeah, that's exactly right. Thank you. That's what I wanted to hear. Yeah, you know, maybe.

2:40:37 I have a California clip that I'd like to share because I found this to be rather interesting. Governor Gavin Newsom issued a state order directing California officials to quote, move urgently to address dangerous encampments while supporting and assisting the individuals living in them. Some homeless advocates were caught off guard and outraged. This is really a punch in the gut. Super sad and disappointing.

2:41:14 Jennifer Friedenbach says she already sees thousands of people on a wait list for housing in San Francisco and that all the city's shelter beds are already full. They want to basically crack down on folks who have no other choice. California has the largest homeless population in the nation, more than 180,000 people. according to a 2023 homelessness assessment report to Congress. The state's policies following the Supreme Court decision are being closely watched by other cities and states across the nation. An estimated 650,000 people are experiencing homelessness nationwide, more than a 12% increase since 2020. About a dozen big city mayors across California support the governor's directive while emphasizing a need for housing solutions.

2:41:59 Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass put out her own statement pushing back on quote strategies that just move people along from one neighborhood to the next. So what you're hearing here is no solutions for these people, zero solutions. And all these instances and organizations, none of them want to solve the problem because then their clients, they actually literally call them clients, their clients, you know, they can't have them solved because then we're all out of a job and it's just no. And I would like to recommend

2:42:34 A guy I met eight years ago, Alan Graham, who I think we've talked about on the show before. He started the Community First Village outside of Austin. They're now in phase three. They have over 450 tiny homes and it's not policed, it's a community. And he says 85% of all the people that they bring in off of the streets with very minimal screening. It works out fine for them. They'll never leave the community, but they're in this community. They have mental issues. They do have some drug issues. And as long as they're not stealing each other's bikes, then it's okay. The community kind of polices itself. It's been extremely successful.

2:43:15 And of course they received no funding. No funding. And I mention this because Joe Rogan heard about him and had him on his most recent episode. It was a Dynamite episode. And take a look at Community First Village. That's a real solution. And all of this is just bullcrap. They don't care about these people. No, they don't. But 400 out of... is 480,000. No, but this is Austin. This is Austin. My solution, you know what it is, I've said it before, there's no other way of doing this. Find some area and create, let a shanty town like the rest of South America and lots of Europe,

2:44:01 Let a shanty town emerge and people can go there. I mean, that's the only workable situation. It works in the favelas in Brazil, and it works all over South America, and it works in parts of Europe. I know it's a blight. But at least it gets people out of these tents in the middle of town in San Francisco where there's just, it's like you go downtown, there's a tent. Not a tent, what am I saying? There's like 100 tents. Well, isn't it basically the same thing as a tiny village? What, the tents? Yeah, and the shanty town. No, the shanty towns are a little different because it's not coordinated. It's just completely, it's a self-made,

2:44:48 It works itself out. Well, where should we do this? Should we do this in Alameda, California? There's no room there. You need an area where there's a bunch of open space. South San Francisco is perfect. The whole side of the hill. South San Francisco? There's a hillside. Now I think about it because... People in Brazil, if you go to Rio in particular. It's gotta be on a hill. You gotta have a hill. They bitch, they say, you know the best views of Rio, the best is in the favelas because the favelas took over the hills. And so if you want to get a good view, you go up into the shanty towns up in the favelas and you can see, wow, it was beautiful up here.

2:45:27 Just south of San Francisco, in South San Francisco, there is a giant sign on a hill that says South San Francisco and it's all, it's not populated. It would be a perfect favela. that whole hill and you could start building there or just let it go and you don't have to do anything once it gets going, it just gets going. And that's what, I know it's, I don't know if this cruel, this thought of mine is cruel or what, but I know it works in South America, it would work here. ♫ I'm gonna show my support by donating to KnowAgenda.

3:02:18 Yo, it's like a party. Do you have a couple of... Before we get to ISOs. Uh-oh. So I just got a note. Note. From DVR DVR. Time for an emergency pod. And he says, do you by chance mean the cities of wealth? Now it's possible because it's 40 years ago I knew about this. 40 years ago. Oh, oh. Now, this might be it. It's called Cities of Wealth, Programs for Economic Control in Berkeley, California. Oh, that would be the one.

3:03:10 He says, Bates is mentioned, but he's not listed as the author. And I got, he has a picture of the cover. It's downloadable. Oh, nice. In Cities of Wealth. I'm going to put the link in the next newsletter. Written by the Community Ownership Organizing Project, and it's a publication of the Conference on Alternative State and Local Policies. I don't know if this is it. I think it might be and so I'm gonna download it and take a look at it and... You should print it out and save it. I just might do that. It's on an archive that he found. I have to give, we have, like you said earlier, I'll just reiterate, we have some of the greatest producers in the world, which makes the show what it is. That's right. So this may be the book. Whatever the case is, we'll all have a copy. Nice. So I'll definitely put it in the next newsletter coming out on Wednesday. Excellent. Good work, everybody. Well, we think.

3:04:12 I have two ISOs. I'll play mine, then you can play yours. Are you ready? Yeah. Wow, that's great! Okay, I didn't like that one. I like this one. Wow, look at that energy. That is the one I like. Cute. I have... I'm going thematic, so I have the same basic thing done by different people. Uh-huh. And it's bi. It's a bi series of bi's. I'm gonna start with the first one, which is buh-bye. Buh-bye. Oh, yeah, that's nice. That's cute. It's cute. Then just a plain bye-bye. Bye-bye. Okay, and then by by yeah, I Like the by That's the one for me. Although I like the energy too, but you didn't you didn't seem so excited by it

3:05:02 It was, it had, if the by-ee, if it didn't have by-ee, I like it more. I got beaten out by a by-ee. And now, ladies and gentlemen, time once again for the moment you've all been waiting for. Time for your tip of the day. John, what do you have for us today? This actually came in from our Baron, I think he's a Baron, Dana Brunetti, our Hollywood producer. Oh wow, he's a big name, big name on the show. You know, I talk to him every once in a while and he always answers the phone the same way. It's like, you know I'm retired, right? Really? That's how he answers the phone? He always says, you know I'm retired, right? Oh please. Why are you calling? He should answer the phone like this, you got Brunetti, go.

3:05:59 It's Brunetti, go! That's what I'd do if I were him. I think yeah, that would be good. He should, yeah, he can do that. So he gave, this is a tip that we should have all been know about, that is a great tip. And he says, it's just unclaim.org. This is all of all the unclaim. Oh yes, yes, this is money. money, you got money, everyone out there has money and Dana had a very good suggestion. Go to unclaim.org, put your name in there, it'll show you all the possible money you have. In California for example, I mentioned this, if you keep your money in the bank and you don't access it or touch it or do anything for about a year, they just kick it to the state. They steal it from you.

3:06:55 They steal it and they kick it to the state and you go back to your bank account and they say, oh no, no, it's been sent to the state. You haven't been talking to us for like a year. So everyone's got a bunch of money. It turns out I have a bunch of money that are refunds from State Farm Insurance. Are you gonna donate it to the show? I have State Farm Insurance. Why don't they just put it and take it off my bill? Donate to the show, man. You got dough now. You're swimming in it. So anyway, Brunetti says, and he doesn't answer the phone that way, by the way, just because he'll give me grief. He always reminds me he's retired. Go for Brunetti. Go for Brunetti. So his idea is that if you find a bunch of money, you should chip in to the show with, you know, whatever. Oh no, you said chip in. Well, I said chip in. So I'd say 20% it would be good.

3:07:45 Well unclaimed org now in certain states for example, they have all of the stuff They have all my California stuff on there But I have to click on a link to go to the California site and start to process over because Cal it this Site will take most of the states and it'll do all the work for you right on the site So you get a bunch of money. There's money Everyone out there's got money that is sitting around waiting to be picked up. And what is that website again? Oh unclaimed.org unclaimed.org I believe we've discussed this on the show before. Well it was some years ago. Years and years ago. Let me go to bingit.io. Yes, I think it was episode 377. That's how long ago. Yeah, yeah here it is. Oh listen to this. This will be fun. Don't they?

3:06:55 They steal it and they kick it to the state and you go back to your bank account and they say, oh no, no, it's been sent to the state. You haven't been talking to us for like a year. So everyone's got a bunch of money. It turns out I have a bunch of money that are refunds from State Farm Insurance. Are you gonna donate it to the show? I have State Farm Insurance. Why don't they just put it and take it off my bill? Donate to the show, man. You got dough now. You're swimming in it. So anyway, Brunetti says, and he doesn't answer the phone that way, by the way, just because he'll give me grief. He always reminds me he's retired. Go for Brunetti. Go for Brunetti. So his idea is that if you find a bunch of money, you should chip in to the show with, you know, whatever. Oh no, you said chip in. Well, I said chip in. So I'd say 20% it would be good.

3:07:45 Well unclaimed org now in certain states for example, they have all of the stuff They have all my California stuff on there But I have to click on a link to go to the California site and start to process over because Cal it this Site will take most of the states and it'll do all the work for you right on the site So you get a bunch of money.

Oh unclaimed.org unclaimed.org I believe we've discussed this on the show before. Well it was some years ago. Years and years ago. Let me go to bingit.io. Yes, I think it was episode 377. That's how long ago. Yeah, yeah here it is. Oh listen to this. This will be fun. Don't they?

3:08:37 Dead bison. Dead bison, there's nothing like it. David Daniels, Dallas, Texas. 5412 in the morning, John and Em. Recently, he suggested I look for unclaimed property, so I went to the Texas Unclaimed Property website, performed a search on my name and- Yes, that's the first time. That's 377 we talked about it. Was it producer tip? Another producer tip at the time. Yeah. And I would add to that tip of the day, Because I have done this and I have I think I've gotten all the unclaimed money that was out there was a couple hundred bucks From New Jersey, etc. However, if you are not on good terms with your former spouse You can probably just forget about it because often they will need Identification proof from both people

3:09:27 Which would include... It depends on the state. It depends on the state. Well, New Jersey is like that and I think Texas is like that. New Jersey and New York for sure. I will mention something else we discussed which is that Brunetti got into this and he's looking up you can look up other people On unclaimed org and then call you have someone that's on the on the run You can get their address. It gives you their address. It's actually a kind of a security issue Yeah, so he looked you up And you're correct. He found a bunch of money for me, but then he looked you up and he said we couldn't find anything. So you have actually cleared out. I've cleared it out, baby. I'm riding high. I'm high on the hog. That's right. That's right, everybody. John C. Dvorak's Tip of the Day. And we'll have another one on Thursday. It's a very popular segment.

You already hear folks talking about the borders are she wasn't the borders are President Biden taps Kamala Harris, Vice President Kamala Harris to be the borders are. She wasn't the borders are that's what Republicans labeled her. The Biden team didn't declare her the borders are they wanted her to work on kind of the root causes of immigration. There has been so much criticism against Kamala Harris. She was the borders are. It's amazing.

3:12:08 Axios even came out with a statement. You know, she was never the Borders are by the way we made a mistake We're gonna correct that now. We mistakenly called her a borders are but we were wrong You know, these guys, it's always the same group. It's the Atlantic, magazines, CNN, MSNBC, and Axios to a lesser extent. They're gaslighters, but it seems to me they're gaslighting themselves. Oh yeah, they have to gaslight themselves into believing. They're basically gaslighting themselves and they're all in. It's embarrassing to watch. Yeah, but people forget. People forget. Sometimes Democrats forget. People forget. People forget. People don't forget that much, especially when you do a good job. Borders are closed.

3:13:04 Democrats forgot. Well, okay, they forget to appoint people. People forget. People forget. She cackles. That's what advertising is for. This is what repetition is. Just say Republicans said that is not true. Keep the bankers fat. People forget. That's not how it works. It's repetition. It's repetition. Just say it. People forget. People forget. Democrat front. Oh, yeah, they forget that. Democrat front. Well, okay, they forget to appoint. People forget. It's a put-up! Noah Jenna slingshots, ball bearings sold separately. The wrist rocket, that's it.

3:15:20 and borders are facing some backlash. What he said about Harris and immigration was not true. She was never appointed. This will be her first visit to the US Mexico border regions and she was appointed as the borders are by President Biden. President Biden taps Kamala Harris. to be the border czar. She wasn't the border czar, that's what Republicans labeled her. We're very critical of Kamala Harris, especially in her role as border czar. Another story I don't know about.
