00:00 Hey man, tell Joe! Tell Joe! Tell Joe! Adam Curry. John C. DeVore Act. This is no agenda Parsing the performatives and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country right here in FEMA Region Number 6. In The Morning everybody! I'm Adam Curry, again from Northern Silicon Valley where I've determined that The Vogue Magazine is an outlet for the American Communist Party. I'm John C. Dvorak. It's Crackpot & Buzzkill...In The Mornin'! What magazine now?

00:37 Vogue Oh vote vogue is a commie rag. Is that what you're saying? Well, I didn't you know when they did this slam of poor Melania Trump's official portrait They done that again they publish and they said she looks like a freelance magician with an outfit on it's a good line funny but But then it harkens back to the Teen Vogue article on Marxism, but this is about three or four years ago. We talked about it on the show. They did not only an article like how Marxism works but they were advocating for it

01:15 Wow. For teen in Teen Vogue, it's Marxism. Oh no, Teen Vogue is a complete Marxist magazine. But Teen Vogue is part of Vogue and the whole operation is run by Advanced Publications which you bought Condé Nast some years ago and I think they're now suspect. Oh totally my youngest stepdaughter sometimes does production for some of their shoots totally totally Marxists Which is fine. That's if they want to do that. Yeah, but I think people should know Before the show started we were discussing the origin of mind your P's and Q's As i said to John, I think you should mind your p's and q's son Yes And I was condemning him for drinking too much coffee in the morning Mind your p's and q's as an English language expression meaning mind your manners, mind your language be on your best behavior or watch what you're doing yeah

02:10 One explanation favored in letters to the editors of Notes and Queries, dated from 1851 is a literal interpretation of the saying regarding possible confusion between the lowercase letters p and q in schoolwork or typesetting. So you were right, you were very close to being correct. Which is the story of your life! Very close enough is the way it goes... Close enough? Unlike the close enough mishap that took place which you have to discuss I do and it's always interesting how

02:50 It went really fast this time, like oh it's a remote control. The stuff that came in is ridiculous and there are two things that bother me one is the lack of information Which of course there's not going to be that much the second one was the fact that it took up all the airwaves on all The networks. Oh, it's for hours on end and they there was nothing to show or see except the st One little looped video plus a million I don't know how many police are in that area But there must be 10 thousand and they just kept showing this one shot And then had nothing to talk about why do they do this? What is the point? I can answer that question

03:33 Many of these news models are in Washington DC or commute into Washington DC, have been in Washington DC regularly to get their marching orders. To talk to their inside sources and people familiar with the president's thinking and they love this airport so they're like oh man that could have been me let's do some more story on it! It's all about them Well, that actually brought Swalwell on of all people from California. He flew in like two or three planes before the crash and it was the same thing what it could have been me? Yeah, well yeah of course always it could have been me well That's how that's how it works with With airplane air with air disasters of course everyone knows it could have been me I am somewhat uniquely qualified because I am both a helicopter pilot and a fixed-wing pilot

04:27 And this seems quite obvious to me what happened here. This is actually Sky News I think in Australia, this guy came pretty close to what was going on i think. I understand though very shortly before this accident the aircraft in question of Bombardier CR7 was actually cleared asked to operate off a shorter runway, Runway 33 So what... The fact that they changed the runways that presumably is relatively common, is it not? It's relatively common. The challenge though of course is that you...it means for aircraft departing that's fine but for an aircraft that has already set up to land on a main runway he's now got to fly in S-curve to actually reposition himself to come on a straight approach down on Runway 33. That means that he's actually in a different position and he's now over the Potomac Why this important because for the military helicopter pilot

05:22 His brain, which you paint... they call it situational awareness but you've got a brain map of where everything is. You'll have assumed that everything is on approach to the main runway or departing the main runway. You won't have factored in this one aircraft that's now coming in doing a descent over the Potomac He's pretty close. It is a situal awareness issue and this is a known procedure to divert because it very busy airspace probably too busy Because everyone loves us so much you want to go into DCA instead of the alternative was just closer Well, yeah, there'd be differences about an hour because your DCA is right downtown and the Dallas is a million miles away Yeah

06:02 It's like Midway and O'Hare. So the military are on a different frequency, so he wasn't necessarily monitoring what was going...the pilot this was an annual well they call it a re-inspection flight which is kind of an all pilots go through it an annual inspection you fly with instructors in this case a crew of three And so they may not have completely been aware of the change that was made for that flight. And having flown at night, and this is the same thing with the drones over New Jersey...

06:37 It's not easy to see things. He probably was looking at, or what they thought they were looking at was American Airlines 3130 which was somewhat behind the aircraft that got hit and they may have even had all eyes inside the cockpit you know this happens sometimes it just happens where no one is looking outside your doing your procedures You're looking at the instruments, it's a night flight. The whole point is to know is flying at night and it's just not easy to see things and from what I could tell actually have a little bit of the audio because you hear...the tower hears that they can hear the collision alert in the tower and it's just seconds before it happens That's the collision alert

07:30 So the helicopter says aircraft in sight, visual separation. He could not have been looking at that and he's looking at it from the side. He must have been looking at a different aircraft is... It's so easy when you're I mean it happens so often even in the UK. I was setting up for an approach And it turns out I was looking at the wrong airport I mean, at night things are very different. This is why planes sometimes land on the taxiway It's just it's not easy to fly at night and then here of course... There it is boom he says visual and then just seconds later crashes right into there's nothing more nothing less than a very bad day Now the president went out

08:24 and talked to the press this morning, and I watched most of that. He said we're going to get to the bottom of it mistakes were made...I mean seriously? I think mistakes were made because when you have this helicopter at basically the same altitude within 50 feet of the incoming regional jet I mean, it would have been very easy for the controller to say okay. You can do a lot with the helicopter you can turn on a dime you can do a lot depending...I don't know exactly how fast they're going but you can do a lot of different things and The controller took it for granted I'm not blaming the controller or anybody really took for granted that when The pilot said visual that he saw it and then it was visual But they were already kind of too...I mean, you know when

09:15 When you're flying and you see another plane, you know that you're on a collision course when it looks like the other plane is not moving. So... And that's what you train for. It's like I'm looking at this aircraft, it's not moving, that means I'm on a direct collision course with it if you are at the same altitude So, they just didn't see it. And then there's all this talk of night vision goggles... You know? It's gonna be even worse with night vision goggles and all those lights of DC that are going to bleed everything out so it is just a horrible situation! And maybe not necessarily anybody fault other than

09:54 President Trump took it to DEI, he actually went there. Yeah you know that was gonna be expected yeah and he was a light touch on it but so this is just the bad day and stuff happens lots of people die in traffic accidents all day long 30 thousand a year yeah you don't hear about it And this is just a crappy one because people fly and everyone feels that pain. But the conspiracy, oh it was runway 33! Do you know how many runway 33's there are? It's very typical runway heading

10:34 So, no conspiracy. Just a bad day? Well here's something for you to do. Explain why there's not 33 runways at DCA. There is about four. No that's it that's a compass direction. 33 degrees? Yes well 330 degrees yes so when you hear runway one that's basically 10 so ten degrees is it'll be the or 100 degrees will be the exact opposite of the 33, no I'm sorry that's not true. Let me say the typical headings you have on runways will be 27 22 33 it all has to do with the typical wind direction that happens at that particular airfield and there's a lot of 33 runway headings

11:28 So, you know but then it's like oh 33 runway heading and three people on the plane. Oh yeah! Clearly remote-controlled to kill who was on the plane? Well sadly a bunch of figure skaters Yeah that was kind of tragic It's always tragic these things are always tragic And what was on a continuity of government flight? It was a training flight Wow No there has been a lot of this sort of thing it is annoying I find it annoying It's to be expected. It's just, it is to be expected so but it's just bad. And then the social media that there's a whole line of tweets I ran into

12:08 with these guys carping at each other. I'm a chopper pilot from the Vietnam War and blah, blah, blah... Oh no you're full of shit! You can't turn that thing off! You can't turn off the transponder! Yeah you can, No you can't! And it just goes on forever. Well i will mention that so you have something called TCAS Traffic Collision Alert System And it's pretty much useless below a thousand feet because it's going to be going off all the time. Below 1000 feet, it is not gonna tell you to go up or down, just gonna say traffic! Traffic!

12:45 And in busy airspace, you'll hear that thing a lot because it's thousands of feet separation. So you're just going to hear this and you just want to hope that no one is at the same altitude. But again, its military and civilian sharing the same airspace different frequencies bad day, day wrecker for everybody. That's it! There's nothing more to give you on that. And there'll be a report and we'll hear something, I'm sure somebody will get it. Everyone got to get up and speak this was the first time for Pete Hegseth to speak. J.D. Vance our vice president came out and spoke everybody was all in on this because it was bad! Of course you want to keep the attention away from the televised hearings

13:39 Which is what it definitely did, which... I don't even know if anyone cares about these anymore. They're so performative and everybody trying to get their sound bite in, you know it's a yes or no question! I love the yes-or-no thing It's just... I'll take that as a no Yeah, oh, it's... Take that as a yes It really doesn't work anymore as far as I'm concerned Well for yeah but I think it does work For who? We've been watching this yes or no thing. It works for the guy who's running for re-election. Yeah, okay good point! It's not working for the hearings because everyone knows they're all full of crap and in fact Kennedy himself... I have a bunch of Kennedy clips obviously. That's good. And Kennedy himself —I don't have this clip— but he says you know you guys used to all be my friends

14:35 All you Democrats. And I know what you're doing, and it's like this is what you have to do." He goes on and on because he does! He's not an idiot but listen to these guys widen... The thing that I like the most is that every one of these guys who slammed on Kennedy because there was a real strong movement get him in here All these tiktokers and twitters and tweeters and all the rest of them are coming out with well, though I can see why Elizabeth Warren is she took 1.2 million dollars from big pharma one point one million from her this and that And they just going after these people Well, and the end sorry Oh, I just want to say on Elizabeth Warren we know from first-hand sources that she took significant amounts of money from

15:28 Bose to get this hearing aid. Right, the hearing aids is one of your pet peeves? Oh it is because Bose and by the way it failed for them but Bose had hearing devices which you can get over-the-counter and they were called amplifiers or hearing no I think was hearing amplifier enhancers they couldn't they couldn't call it hearing aids She took the money and she got everyone together, and then Apple was a part of this too. So they could call either their software or their hardware devices, they could call them hearing aids, and you can get them without assistance from an audiologist which is just...

16:09 It's stupid. If you really care, if you know...if you're going deaf because you've been... You know if you don't care about your hearing just want to amp it up and you know and you don't want to hear Fidelity and be able to fine-tune it okay Don't go to an audiologist but from my own personal experience having an audiologist is a good thing Because you may not know exactly what you should be hearing in these Devices that shoot tones into your ear and then AI discovers the exact frequency. No, no it's just not true It's like glasses you know you have to have the guy going okay? How about this how about that and you're going I don't know go back again You know that's just how it is A or B Back in A or B this one or that one okay? Let's try this oh you can see at all now Okay Okay, how about now

17:05 It's just, that is how you actually... it's not an exact science. So she took money for that and there's a whole... No she is corrupt woman! And she is like...it's an embarrassment but Wyden was even worse I mean he opened it up with real... let me play the clip Let me see, I think I have the list I think? I got the lists of a lot of these people on what they took from Big Pharma and you're right now we all know how it works And I think a lot of people, and you're right. This is where social media of course does a reasonably good job

17:43 of saying, hey this guy is defending this or this lady is defending this because this is who they represent. They don't represent people they represent big interests and pharmaceutical interest being one of them and this is what DC is full of his dinners and lunches and hangouts And I think a lot of them believe it. Graft, let's use the right word. Graft or grift which one is it? graft. Yeah, and you know and I think a lot of people believe it look here's the 40 studies that say that what was uh who was that horrible witch woman no no it was some... Oh Smith? No, no it was about and it was I don't remember what is about all they just brought up it was like bring your kitchen sink and dump in on Kennedy's head because this has got to be fun people

18:38 That's what it was. All right, why don't you go ahead and start with some of these because we might as well get some of them out of the way Yeah I do want to say I don't have the clip or and you might I know if a couple have it or not a couple No But you have the clipper Shanahan no don't have Shannon What was I miss the Shanahan the vice president for Kennedy's campaign that billionaire girl? Yeah Yes, she came. I gotta get this could maybe I'll run in on Sunday she threatened literally threatened everybody who votes no on Kennedy with it, she's gonna take her resources and she's got plenty of them to go primary these people. And she named names... Oh here it is! Here it is. Yes please. Hey everyone tomorrow is a pivotal moment in our nation's history at 10am Eastern Time RFK will sit in front of the Senate Finance Committee for his confirmation hearing to be our nation's next Secretary of Health and Human Services

19:35 I urge everyone to call their U.S. Senators over the following days and demand they vote yes on Bobby's nomination he is more than qualified, he is proven principled and prepared to lead. I'll share a list below of key senators if they represent your state they need to hear from you If they don't please call your own senator and ask them to vote Yes we need as many votes as we can get So this hasn't been widely reported, but in 2020 I cut large checks to Chuck Schumer to help Democrats flip two Senate seats in Georgia from red to blue. The two candidates I helped elect Senator Raphael Warnock and Senator Jon Ossoff

20:18 Please know I will be watching your votes very closely. I will make it my personal mission that you lose your seats in the Senate if you vote against the future health of America's children." And more than that, I also want to say to Senators Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Lisa Markofsky, Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy Tom Tillis, James Lankford, Cory Booker John Fetterman Bernie Sanders and Catherine Cortez Masto. This is a bipartisan message, and it comes directly from me while Bobby may be willing to play nice I won't if you vote against him i will personally fund challengers to primary you in your next election and I will enlist hundreds of thousands to join me yes um big pharma and big ag have exploited us for far too long it ends now

21:06 You're either on the side of transparency and accountability or you are standing in the way. The choice is yours, please choose wisely." I thought this was a bit much! Well that's how it goes you know? It could be going that way because Musk is still irked about his one kid transitioning but she took it to the level where I've never seen anyone do this... This is open threats! Well what's wrong with that?! Well, that's the question. I mean until now it has always been considered bad form! You do what Soros did... you create the open society and then go behind the... No no that spell is broken is long gone we're its balls to the wall were to the mat have you seen our president? No no hey hey you don't want to take these people are sending back tariffs

21:58 Next week double tariffs. Oh now you want to do it? No, this is just threat its threats This is this is who we are Sure we are now So we open up with Kennedy and here's white in Who do this is a very short? short clip of him who went on for five six minutes, slamming Kennedy. Now Wyden took a lot of money from Big Pharma so there's a good reason for him to be and he is the co-chairman of the Finance Committee so he got to speak and yak away all you wanted in here we this is the best part I think. Committee staff have examined thousands of pages... I forgot how talk

22:41 great. Yeah, he talked like a... it's not even I don't know how to explain it. It was Jason Calacanis! Committee staff have examined thousands of pages of statements books and podcast transcripts in a review of his record. I just need to stop for second podcasts have come quite away haven't they John? Podcasts have come quite a way. They're media now, it's mainstream maybe? It is mainstream! No it's mainstream podcasts... Yeah it is. And people joke about I was watching one of these Fox shows where they talk about oh I guess she's gonna quit or you know they talked about Acosta for one guy who was going to do a podcast

23:26 And somebody says you're gonna do a podcast and the person did the joke, I've done it a million times which is well who isn't? It's become such like a trope. I have thoughts about that for later. life-saving vaccines. It has been lucrative for him and put him on the verge of immense power this is the profile of someone who chases money and influence wherever they lead even if that may mean the tragic deaths children and other vulnerable people." See I don't think this works anymore first of all it's a blatant lie because he's been very clear about safe

24:29 tested vaccines. He's been very clear about that and I'm sure, I'm sure that White will know it. They have to keep lying and lying in line because they don't want this guy in! No but the whole world knows even the people... I like the way you're so cavalier with this statement he just made What? The whole world knows what. Well, I'm about to finish the statement... You interrupted my statement and said it was cavalier before I even finished it! Because the premise—I am already disagreeing with whatever you're going to say I believe that the entire world knows that... maybe you're right, maybe I'm cavalier. A large percentage of the world knows that the COVID- Uh oh! You changed it! Yes, I said maybe you're right It's okay Would you like a medal? A little star on your forehead? Yes, I would actually but now you mention it You are good doobie A large percentage of the population realizes that the vaccine for COVID was not

25:28 effective, it did not prevent transmission. It did not prevent you from getting COVID and I think a portion of that knows it was probably not safe and effective And they're wondering why they keep getting sick So people are not all in on vaccines anymore The more people hear about the...and this is a small percentage who realize that there's immunity As in, you can't get sued if your product is defective. So this is... it's just I don't know how many people are buying it but that doesn't matter because it comes down to the vote ultimately No one's gonna call up their senator Who does that anymore? Can I text him? Can I send him a tweet? Hello Senator! Can I do a TikTok? This is passive politics I'm gonna get on TikTok I'm gonna give Wyden peace of my mind no one cares

26:26 All right back to you Bob. Did you do is that the end of the clip? That was yes and the end of my rant well Not much of a rant whatever Whatever he says, okay Yeah, I'm like a woman now gloves are off Okay, what would you like to play next I have a bunch of them here Let's go with my one of my favorite was Bennett this Colorado senator comes up and he's another stooge And he's the guy who was the most Yes, no. Yes not just yes and no it's a yes-no question I take that as a yes say that it targets black and white people but spared I have to move on yeah did you say that Lyme disease is

27:22 uh... is highly likely a materially engineered by a weapon i've made sure i put in the highly likely did you say one disease is a highly likely militarily engineered by a weapons i'd probably just say that it's a that national developer of our colleagues to hear mister kennedy who are wanting to hear if you said yes Did you say that exposure to pesticides causes children to become transgender? No, I never said okay. Well, I have the record that I'll give to the chairman and he can make his judgment about what you said

27:59 Yeah, oh... It's a pharynx that which is the fungicide I believe. It's not a pesticide that causes the frogs to go gay. You know what it's called? What's it called? We've talked about this. You know what's funny? I can't remember because you we played a whole presentation on this about six years ago from the professor at Cal who studied this to death Atrazine Atrazine Yes And it's possible that is part of you. This guy is going nuts, but the Lyme disease thing which doesn't crop up much... Plum Island! That's the Plum Island story in New York. Yeah exactly I'm glad you remember that yeah The plum island which is where Lyme disease seemed to have originated from and it was a military

28:44 bio weapons and all of a sudden from this area, this new disease Lyme's disease appears. Yes And so that yeah and so this Bennett guy is an asshole typical Colorado guy well alright Yeah exactly Colorado I'm sorry sorry now white house was given five minutes So he bitched about that and so he decided not to ask any questions but just Ream Kennedy and I just want to play the beginning of how he prefaced this. I'm looking for White House It should be like yeah, I got him. I got him senator White House Thank You chairman Mr.. Kennedy, I only have five minutes with you so and I've got a lot of experience with CMS

29:31 So you're just gonna have to listen. Now this is another thing, people are no longer interested in your sound bites and your I only have five minutes People had become used to the Joe Rogan three hours They're like, what is this? What is this nonsense? Talk! Give the guy some time. Talk about whatever it is. The whole thing is outdated wrong antiquated and an arachnonism or something like that Arachnonism Anachronism. The word is anachronism. The secret word is anachronism. I like arachnism, it's like some sort of bug or something. The secret word is anachronism.

30:18 So here's Warren, she does a two-parter. Oh my favorite! She was by far my favorite I only have a couple of parts to it but believe me this is the shortest presentation that i could do It's good, its good... So she starts off with this softball and this is Warren 1 So here's an easy question Will you commit that when you leave this job, you will not accept compensation from a drug company? A medical device company. A hospital system or health insurer for at least four years including as a lobbyist or board member Can you just repeat the last part of the question what we can I take money from drug companies in any way shape or form Yes

31:02 I'm happy to commit to that. That's what I figured! I said it's an easy question just start with You know what was most offensive about her presentation is when she put her fingers together like showing money, like her thumb and her fingers getting money because that just shows you this our own projection of that Oh she used to be getting money She and white and a number of other these guys another guy screaming about yes or no they were just as the They were visibly shaking. Yes, all of them so mad because they must have threats threats I think they have I believe that's this might be it they may have threats again They were visibly shaken she was just shaken like a leaf do you think that Shanahan is a threat? What do you think about the farmer rep who drops by and says if you don't make sure this Kennedy guy doesn't get in If you don't discredit him i'm gonna primary you You don't think that conversation happened

32:02 Yeah, not in public though. No! Imagine bordering... I'm sure it has! Of course Well this is good as shake them out the smoke about there's no fun over This is it's not good actually this is this could be put an end couldn't be put to this in one quick executive order. And television drug advertising, it takes the money out of the... It takes all these ridiculous profits out of these stupid drugs that have all these side effects and it takes the money away from the media who's been banking on this drug money since day 1 since its began and they've like kind of leaned on it and that will hurt

32:44 The media big time. I don't think the president has the balls to do it because he knows that then his entire base will get primaried, it will be an all-out war if he does that. Well there's going to be an all out war anyway if Kennedy doesn't get in so So let's here now, here's where she good. She starts to get mean and she starts to go after him because he's a lawyer that's been suing pharma companies right? This is a good clip you could change vaccine labeling You could change vaccine information rules. You can change which claims are compensated in the vaccine injury compensation program there's a lot of ways that you can influence an

33:28 those future lawsuits and pending lawsuits while you are Secretary of HHS. And I'm asking you to commit right now that you will not take a financial stake in every one of those lawsuits so that what you do as secretary will also benefit you financially down the line. I'll comply with all the ethical guidelines- That's not the question, you and I have said- Senator, you're asking me not to pursue a vaccine- No! I am not! My country is stuck in friction! Yeah, you are, that's exactly what you're doing

34:05 No one should be fooled here. As Secretary of HHS, Robert Kennedy will have the power to undercut vaccines and vaccine manufacturing across our country. And for all of his talk about follow the science, and his promise that he won't interfere with those of us who want to vaccinate his kids, the bottom line is the same Kennedy can kill off access to vaccines and make millions of dollars while he does it. Kids might die but Robert Kennedy can keep cashing in. She's just not a good person.

35:01 She was shaking when she was condemning him. Pretty bad, that's really pretty bad! So it went back and forth because the Republicans were all amenable and they were happy with it and they think they can get the votes you know except for a couple of them. And so Ron Johnson who is just a gentle guy who's really interesting Well, he's held a lot of these side room conferences about food. Oh yeah, right! He's the one who does those extra ones that are in some bunker someplace and puts together what looks like a congressional investigation is not. They throw some skirts over some Ikea tables and it's like alright you're in the Capitol right now uh-huh Yeah that guy

35:48 Let Kennedy talk, and these are the last two clips. And this is not really about the back-and-forths. This is Kennedy giving his side of the story and I think if you listen to this it's pretty hard to not want this guy in. This is Kennedy to Johnson 1. When I launched my campaign it was about uniting Americans Democrats Republicans there's no issue that should unite us more than this chronic health epidemic There's no such thing as Republican children or Democratic children. These are our kids, 66% of them are damaged I know what a healthy kid looks like because i had so many in my family. I didn't know anybody with a food allergy growing up, peanut allergy Why do five of my kids have allergies? Why are we seeing these explosions and diabetes rheumatoid arthritis neurological diseases depression

36:44 all these things that are related to toxic environment. Why can't we just agree with each other, put differences about so many issues intractable issues aside and say we're going to end this? I don't think anybody is going to be able to do this like I have. Now, I'm all in with that and it is interesting how there There's a decrease in, you know people are saying yeah let's process food. I mean the word is seeping out it goes very slow i think it takes years before... Slow! It goes slow but thanks to McDonalds this has gone faster than most because of

37:25 You know, no one watches television anymore. They're on social media and then if you look at one video about processed food on TikTok you'll get a thousand of them it's interesting It is interesting I have to agree in general The second part of this he goes on after another back-and-forth and he gives this spiel which to me is the kicker. This is the reason you want the guy? Because of my peculiar experience, because I've litigated against these agencies when you litigate against them, you get a PhD in corporate capture and how to unravel it. And I've written six books about these agencies. I know a lot about them and I know how to fix it. There's nobody who will fix it the way that I do because I'm not scared of vested interests.

38:15 I'm not here because i want a position or job. I have a very good life and happy family This is something that I don't need, I wanna do this because we're gonna fix it And the other thing is we are attracting now A caliber of people to HHS like never before in history and there are entrepreneurs there They're disruptors, they're innovators of immense talents that are walking away many of them from growing concerns. They're not coming there for position or coming there because they want to save our country. Yeah, maha! Make America healthy again? Of course...

38:54 So this vote will be very interesting. There's one more hearing today with him again, but it is not the important hearing. The hearing that took place at the Finance Committee is I was told the hearing that really determines whether he's going to get go forward and he will because Republicans are gonna vote for him and then it goes through... Are you sure? You think they're...? Yeah, I'm pretty sure yeah cuz there's nobody on finance committee that is a waffling Republican. I need to play a few clips here before we move off of Kennedy and with this, I will say in 1997 or 98, I got a call from Caroline Kennedy and she wanted to meet with me because i was doing internet stuff And so I meet with Caroline Kennedy and she said, well you know Tom Brokaw said I should talk to you about the Internet

39:50 And so I spoke about the internet. She did have an invitation to Brokaw when she did this? No, that was me! Tom Brokaw wants to talk about the internet and he talked about Adam Curry. And she was like, oh I want to get the internet for...I think it was for the Kennedy Library or something, she was in charge of that And it became very apparent to me, she did not give a... Not one hoot about the Internet. She just wanted a press release that's all she cared about. She just wanted to have a press release saying we're on the information superhighway We're on an on-ramp to the information superhighway and she just did not care and then she went away and then nothing ever happened But what she did to Bobby Jr here

40:37 is pretty I mean, again is she just looking for a headline? Is she looking for...I don't know what she's looking for but this was from your family. All of his family are crazy but she just really took it all with this and i think she does this for herself She doesn't even do it to save or protect anybody She only cares about herself Now that Bobby has been nominated by President Trump To be Secretary of Health and Human Services A position that would put him in charge of the health of the American people. I feel an obligation to speak out." I've known Bobby my whole life, we grew up together It's no surprise that he keeps birds-of-prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator He has always been charismatic able to attract others through his strength in personality and willingness to take risks and break rules

41:35 I watched his younger brothers and cousins follow him down the path of drug addiction. His basement, his garage, his dorm room were always the center of action where drugs were available and he enjoyed showing off how he put baby chickens and mice in a blender to feed to his hawks. It was often a perverse scene of despair and violence that wasn't long time ago and people can change Through his own strength and the many second chances he was given by people who felt sorry for the boy who lost his father, Bobby was able to pull himself out of illness and disease. I admire the discipline that took and the continuing commitment it requires. However... But siblings and cousins whom Bobby encouraged down the path of substance abuse suffered addiction, illness, and death

42:27 while Bobby has gone on to misrepresent, lie and cheat his way through life. Nice! So nice Caroline thank you I want to play a couple clips here from... She is a horrible person that she doesn't you know just from a few years being in the Biden administration she was the ambassador to Australia which With no credentials for this, by the way that I can tell. She doesn't really do anything she's a nude nick at best. Wasn't she also ambassador to Japan for a bit there? If i recall... I think she might have been yeah Yeah again with no credentials doesn't speak the language and etc etc No she does not

43:04 She looks like she's 50 years older. Yeah, she does not look good just four years ago. She looks like Phil Collins. I'm just bad Let's listen to the elite messaging system which is severely broken but here's NBC picking up the ball and Approaching the obvious attack vector against RFK jr Tonight on the eve of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Senate confirmation hearing to lead the Department of Health and Human Services Bobby himself is a predator Caroline Kennedy is lashing out at her cousin calling him unqualified What? like a, like a nat pop. Caroline Kennedy is no she's only good for Nat pops Bobby himself is a predator. Caroline Kennedy is lashing out at her cousin calling him unqualified to oversee critical agencies including the FDA and CDC pointing in part to his stance on vaccines. Bobby preys on the desperation of parents of sick children vaccinating his own kids

44:05 while building a following hypocritically discouraging other parents from vaccinating theirs. Do you have any response to the letter released by Caroline Kennedy? RFK Jr ignored NBC News's questions today- Ignored it! Oh no, he ignored the NBC! His cousin's concern is encoded in- How dare he ignore the NBC! Franklin, Tennessee. It's very scary that that person is going to be making public health decisions for our family and the country as a whole. Jen Fisher's 12-year old son Raleigh was born with a congenital heart condition that makes him more vulnerable to all types of sickness. Her fear now made worse, Jen says.

44:48 This is the worst reporting I've ever seen for a while. It's not a report! She, she... she is hysterical in the reporting and reportage Yes And she's going to just rat it off like there's nothing going on you know? She's just a maniac this reporter Aaron, Aaron McLaughlin This is a terrible product. ABC has lost the plot Well, that's why I call it the broken elite messaging system. All types of sickness her fear now made worse Jen says by growing vaccine skepticism within the Franklin community What does that mean for Raleigh? It's a scarier thing to send him out the door every morning. It's cold and flu season There's a lot of illness going around

45:32 It's a lot of illness going on. It's very scary yet well there is the second part to this here in Tennessee according to the CDC more and more parents are choosing not to vaccinate their children against preventable diseases such as measles and whooping cough, a reality Dr Daniel McGinley says he is increasingly confronting in his practice do you worry that people are going to die because of this skepticism? Some will You're confident that is going to happen. If these diseases come back, more people will die. No no no no! People will die! Vaccine skepticism is growing across 40 states plus Washington DC Last school year the percentage of kindergartners exempted from one or more mandatory vaccines was the highest ever recorded fueled by online conspiracies and high profile critics of vaccines and vaccine mandates like RFK Jr There's no vaccine that

46:23 You know, safe and effective since his nomination. He said he's not a good one. That's my that's taken out of context. That's what so good about it is terrible. This is NBC at its worst. This is awesome. There's no vaccine that is safe and effective since I was stopped. Wait this you end pharma advertising just stops instantly? Yeah. Yeah, because yes you are correct sir. There's no vaccine that is safe and effective Since his nomination he said he's not anti-vaccine and won't take them away But parents like Fisher say they'll be watching tomorrows confirmation hearing closely Knowing that for Raleigh and children like him the stakes are high It's life or death for Raleigh The stakes are high

47:19 We need to go to the other side of the messaging system, to CBS. We'll bring in Dr. John Lepook. LePook is here! We are joined now by our chief medical correspondent... I'm sorry, Chief Medical Correspondent not just a doctor he's a chief medical correspondent makes you sound official He should be wearing a uniform with braids and metals and all kinds of stuff. We are joined now by our chief medical correspondent Dr. John LaPou, John start our conversation off by telling us what RFK Jr would oversee? Massive department! You're right John you know HHS is huge we've put together something I want to show you the annual budget is 1.8 trillion dollars that is 26 cents out of every dollar

46:23 You know, safe and effective since his nomination. He said he's not a good one. That's my that's taken out of context. That's what so good about it is terrible. This is NBC at its worst. This is awesome. There's no vaccine that is safe and effective since I was stopped. Wait this you end pharma advertising just stops instantly? Yeah. Yeah, because yes you are correct sir. There's no vaccine that is safe and effective Since his nomination he said he's not anti-vaccine and won't take them away But parents like Fisher say they'll be watching tomorrows confirmation hearing closely Knowing that for Raleigh and children like him the stakes are high It's life or death for Raleigh The stakes are high

47:19 We need to go to the other side of the messaging system, to CBS. We'll bring in Dr. John Lepook. LePook is here! We are joined now by our chief medical correspondent... I'm sorry, Chief Medical Correspondent not just a doctor he's a chief medical correspondent makes you sound official He should be wearing a uniform with braids and metals and all kinds of stuff. We are joined now by our chief medical correspondent Dr. John LaPou, John start our conversation off by telling us what RFK Jr would oversee? Massive department! You're right John you know HHS is huge we've put together something I want to show you the annual budget is 1.8 trillion dollars that is 26 cents out of every dollar

48:02 spends every year. And it oversees 13 federal agencies, including the CDC, the FDA, Medicaid, Medicare and the NIH which oversees a tremendous amount of medical research so this organization really affects almost all of us. Wasn't Collins the guy who was running it before this? That kook with his guitar? No, no no the whole NIH. Yeah HHS I'm sorry. No HSS was Becerra i think. Oh well that guy's even worse! No Becerra has got no creds. He is just a California lawyer We continue What would be his powers as he oversees all these agencies? HE WOULD BE VERY POWERFUL You know tremendous I'll give you an example The CDC has an advisory committee that recommends

48:52 to the CDC what vaccines to give and when to give them. Well, the HHA secretary appoints the voting members of that advisory committee so... Laugh Tale? Laugh Tale! Oh yeah that committee which we know is all shills. Of that advisory committee but even without official changes the views of somebody at the top such a powerful organization can affect public opinion doubts for example about vaccines that can trickle down and perhaps increase vaccine hesitancy. No, hesitancy? Oh no! All I've ever heard Kennedy say is yeah i just want people to know and I don't want to force them...I don't want to force their kids to take this stuff which of course it's very bad

49:33 Dr. LePoucq, you're not just a doctor and chief medical officer but what do your colleagues think of this? What do your colleagues, what other doctors make of RFK Jr.? You know there's agreement and even excitement about the idea of making America healthier or decreasing obesity in improving our diets where the concern comes in is there's belief and there's evidence And when belief doesn't square with evidence, you either change the belief that's science or you change or you cherry-pick the evidence. There is concern among my colleagues about holding on to belief in the face of contradictory evidence." How concerning is it that people believe these things nowadays? It was once when this was believed to be settled fact right? Science fact! In the 1950s, the high watermark went polio for a fact

50:20 vaccine. Oh, here we go of course in government vaccines were given for polio like 2 million people got it at a time when people are so terrified about what these infections can do but now people don't even remember what the measles mumps rubella most people haven't seen it diphtheria woman cough that's one of the problems Pete when public health is working nothing happens and some people don't appreciate it yeah well don't get us started on the measles Brady Bunch I do want to go to Tina Smith. Yeah, the Democrat from Minnesota. Who's this? Tina Smith the Democrat from Minnesota and she her task was to... Her attack vector was SSRIs and other stuff that science can't actually explain how it works but we know it works you just might have to take Relenza or

51:12 or some extra thing that increases it and you're on it forever and you feel great. In an interview in 2023, and again in 2024, you blamed school shootings on antidepressants. You said, There is no time in American history or human history that kids were going to shoot schools and shooting their classmates. It really started happening coterminous with the introduction of these drugs, with Prozac and with other drugs So do you believe as you've said that antidepressants cause school shootings? This should be a simple question I don't think anybody can answer that question And I didn't ask that question

51:54 I said it should be studied along with other potential culprits like social media. What? Gaming, you forgot gaming! But i don't know because there's no science on that senator. Well there is Senator, excuse me Mr Kennedy. Thank you for the promotion The science shows that there is no link. You get the line in there, thanks for the promotion. Yeah this is so good Mr Kennedy Thank you for the promotion The science shows that there is no link between school shootings and antidepressants And infact most school shooters were not even treated with anti-depressants and of those that were There was no evidence of association I don't think you can say that Senator because HIPAA rules nobody knows Well that is...Mr Kennedy

52:45 think that people who take antidepressants are dangerous. Yeah, yeah I just went on from there. Is my neighbor on anti-depressant is gonna kill me? Oh yeah these people are just the worst! I thought the funniest was Bernie Sanders. Bernie was like... This was..I'm glad you got these clips Because I had to stop at some point. Oh yeah, you had to it was too much but Bernie this Bernie and this is actually a shock to me because i thought Bernie would be on the side of Kennedy Yeah And somebody like you said The only thing you can assume is somebody bumped up to him and said hey you know Bernie Hey! I gotta gotcha man It's gonna look great your profile's gonna be fantastic See this? Look at his photo Hey look at this what's that in your mouth Bernie? I think the gist of what you were trying to say today

53:31 You're really pro-vaccine, you want to ask questions. You have started a group called the Children's Health Defense. Right now as I understand it on their website they are selling what is called onesies these are little things clothing for babies One of them is titled Unfaxed Unafraid Next one and they sold for 26 bucks apiece by the way Next one is no vax, no problem. Now you're coming before this committee and you say your pro-vaccine Just want to ask some questions and yet your organization is making money Selling a child's product to parents for 26 bucks which has fundamental doubt on the usefulness of vaccines Can you tell us now that you will...now that you are

54:26 Pro vaccine that you're gonna have your organization take these products off the market senator. I've no power over that organization I'm not a part of it. I resigned from the board. That was just a few months ago You founded that You certainly have power. You can make that power up! Are you supportive of this? I've had nothing to do with leadership... Are you supportive of these onesies?! I'm supportive of vaccines. Can you imagine if someone wrote down in his script, you have to say are you supportive of these onesies!? These onesies!! These onesies aren't outrage!!! That's actually a subclip we show, are you supportive of these onesies? Now the other thing is he has preoccupation with this 26 bucks

55:07 Does he think that's a jip or what I mean? What is he so pure who cares about the price? Oh, but the portions are so small. Oh Man I'm sorry has to go through all that. I'm sorry for all these people these people are sad and pathetic They really are One see the onesies yeah, that's my what's my script buff You're gonna take the onesies, Bernie. I want to take the SSRIs. I got the onesie... what did you get? Yeah, well I got MMR. Oh it's not all that great is it?

55:46 Can we move away from this? Do you have any more? Yeah, I think... Well you do have the summary clip from NTD which is kind of worth playing. This is the Kennedy rundown. Robert F. Kennedy Jr spent hours in front of the Senate Finance Committee Wednesday making statements and answering questions on day one of his nomination hearings There is no single culprit in chronic disease, much as I have criticized certain industries and agencies. President Trump and I understand that most of their scientists and experts genuinely care about American health

56:23 Therefore, we will bring together all stakeholders in pursuit of this unifying goal. Kennedy is scheduled for two days of hearings which will be followed by a full Senate vote on whether or not to confirm him as the Secretary of Health and Human Services Many senators probed Kennedy about his stance on vaccines Senator Ron Waden alleged that Kennedy has embraced conspiracy theories, especially on the safety and efficacy of vaccines. He has made it his life's work to sow doubt and discourage parents from getting their kids life-saving vaccines. But Kennedy pushed back saying that he's not anti vaccine or anti industry but he is pro safety I worked for years to raise awareness about the mercury and toxic chemicals in fish nobody called me any fish

57:20 You know what a guy like Kennedy really needs? He needs, and not just because I can do it but someone like me who can sit there with the vast array of no agenda clips in our archive and just go oh yeah here's what he really said boom hit the clip. That's what he needs because they're all lying all of them they lie and they twist it and make different terms Well that is cause you have an agenda Yeah but thats why the No Agenda has to be there speaking of which We have our debutante who came out this week. Her name is Press Secretary Leavitt

58:01 Leave it to Beaver? Leave it to Beaver. Caroline, is it Caroline? Caroline I think. Caroline Leavitt who was 27. Yes the youngest press secretary in history. I can't imagine any of our daughters doing this job and she's getting her sea legs But this was something that everybody had to send me an email about. This White House believes strongly in the First Amendment, so it's why our team will work diligently to restore the press passes of the 440 journalists whose passes were wrongly revoked by the previous administration We're also opening up this briefing room to new media voices who produce news-related content and whose outlet is not already represented by one of the seats in this room

58:49 We welcome independent journalists, podcasters, social media influencers and content creators to apply for credentials to cover this White House. Again podcasting has come a long way and just the amount I don't know if you got any no probably get nothing? I got a couple You know like are you going to apply for credentials? No! Why in the world when we cover media we deconstruct media we don't want to be the media That's true. And the second thing that should be noted, by the way 7200 podcasters have applied How do you know it? I didn't hear about... It was a news report that came out somebody I think came out of the White House That's a lot! That's more than i expected and they said The thing was that it has to be a daily publication which eliminates us immediately Oh we're out We're done

59:46 The thing is, if you go to the website whitehouse.gov slash new media you get a landing page which is eopra dot my dot site com in uh which is in a frame of the White House and says interested in joining a future White House press briefing share your information below and then there's a button that says seguente! Which I think it's Spanish for enter? What does what does seguiente mean I don't know. Let's look it up. Probably does mean enter. Or go home! Go away! Let me see, this means...

1:00:30 Wow, how come I... Next? Oh next. It means next, I guess okay so by hitting... Oh next! Okay yeah that's okay sequente that would be the sequence from this root sequence. So I hit next and then it has first name what is your first name? Introduza hasta 200 caracteres. This thing is in Spanish. It's the craziest thing No one just had the Spanish you're in the Spanish track. No, it's all I've tried to VPN It's all that's like, you know, this is are you on a VPN? I've tried it on I'm not on a VPN now But I've tried it on VPN for different countries. I keep getting it's the same I get the same form interesting well no, it's it's Unprofessional as what it is Well, it's lame like how come the podcasters have to all speak Spanish and what are you doing?

1:01:25 Anyway, so no we are not going to apply for press credentials. I guess we don't even qualify but we're not gonna do that. The media podcasts are now the media We will have to deconstruct podcasts which is okay. Yeah! We're starting to do that And this is, I'll just give my mini spiel here. This is why we need people starting hyper-local podcasts because there's no way that any human being can go through Rogan and Megyn Kelly and Victor Davis Hanson, Tucker Carlson and Call Her Daddy. You need people in your community who are doing that distilling it down so when you're walking down the street you can say hey I heard you were talking about that what's going on? Hyperlocalpodcasts.com It'll get you started! The people are very interested in doing this

1:02:21 They really and also what is it? What does it mean to your community pot Angeles Yes, exactly. Mimi's got the right idea now that she does we are Anachronism so that I'm trying to use my new word Yeah, you got it. You nailed it So that is why You know, people still tune in to us because we now are hyperlocal. We're a hyperlocal community of interest and we've been around long enough in our 18th year but essentially we're doing the same thing you know come to us will distill it down or give you some ideas will play some clips except we can't talk about your specific neighborhood then we certainly never talked about Canada now

1:03:06 Along these lines, I would like to promote Dvorak.substack.com where you don't promote that enough. I heard you promoted on DH Unplugged. Yeah You should promote that more often and... I should! You know? I'm not good at promotion it's pretty apparent DVORAK Do a jingle that with spelling my name.

New Republican Chairman Brendan Carr brought back these cases after they were dismissed in the final days of the Biden administration notably a complaint against Fox News will not be reinstated this This CBS complaint accuses the network 60 Minutes of editing an interview with Kamala Harris claiming a distorted news to benefit her campaign. ABC faces a complaint for alleged bias during Harris's debate with Donald Trump where moderators were accused of favored treatment.

Whoa, I'm sorry don't want to insult you with your three-way camera or whatever it is your tech grouch beard because there's instant guaranteed cash! Meta is making a bold play to attract TikTok creators by offering up to $5,000 to influencers who join Facebook and Instagram

1:13:00 With TikTok's future in the US uncertain, this breakthrough bonus program is a tempting opportunity for creators. To qualify you need to post at least 20 reels on Facebook and 10 on Instagram every month all original content but here's the catch It's only for those who've never posted on either platform before. Plus, accepted creators get perks like a free verification subscription. Meta isn't stopping there! They've launched edits, a CapCut-like app and revamped Instagrams layout to mimic TikTok While some users are frustrated with these changes it's clear Meta is serious about dominating the short form video space. I mean this is great...to five grand

1:13:45 Top that with a newsletter. This is good stuff! This is cash money, money in the bank Okay I want to just stick with this for...in this area for a second because this is probably the best truth wants-to-come-out clip I've heard this year. I know we're only a couple weeks into it but it's the best, best this year So Vivek Ramaswamy, all of a sudden he drops out of the Department of Governmental Efficiency. You know it's very shady I mean he walked in as part of the cabinet during the inauguration and then he's kind of out and is like oh no no! He can't really talk about it but probably going to run for Ohio Senate seat

1:14:33 But the truth came out in his discussion with Jesse waters, and you'll love it So we're hearing you're leaving Doge after like three scaramoochies. What happened? Well, the reality is I'm pursuing elected office very shortly will have an announcement soon but Jesse things are off to a great start. I think President Trump has proven look at the actions that he took in that first week the most pro-merit president i think we've had in a long time and as for my vision grounded in constitutional law and the future of the country I think it's best pursued through elected office and I'm confident that they're going to succeed in slashing and burning that federal bureaucracy. People are saying you didn't get along with Musk, what happened there? Yeah, I think it's incorrect but what i would say is we had different and complementary approaches. I focused more on a constitutional law legislative based approach the folks more technology approach which is the future approach no better person to lead that technology Did you hear it?!

1:15:27 No. Broge, he said broge instead of doge because of course that is what he's saying behind closed doors this is just broge man it's just the tech bros is the tech bros have broge They play it again so I can hear because I was listening as hard as I could for The Truth Wants to Come Out but I missed I knew that he said broge before because i'd read about it. I never heard him say but here it is no, I read about...I never heard him say it I just read about it constitutional law legislative based approach if folks more on the technology approach which is the future approach No better person to lead than Broge come on! Come on It's the Brogue everyone's been... Oh you know what? I heard hmm.. I heard it was the future approach No Future of Brogue He said Brogue

1:16:16 Yeah, I didn't hear it because i heard something else. Well speaking of the future of broge... Breaking news CNBC! Breaking breaking breaking! X is striking a deal with Visa to be the first partner for what it's calling the x money account since buying Twitter in 2022 Elon Musk has talked about turning the social media site into an quote everything app where users could send payments and store cash By using the payment rails of Visa, the world's biggest credit card network. Ex-users can move funds between traditional bank accounts and the xMoney account. They can store funds there and also make instant peer to peer payments with other ex users like with Zeller Venmo I'm told. The X Money service is expected to launch in the first quarter and deals with more financial partners are likely said one person would knowledge of the matter. One of the first use cases for money is so that creators on the site connect set payments and store funds without using external banks I'm

1:17:07 Minutes ago, ex-Corpseo Lindy Acquino said in a post that it is quote first of many big announcements about xMoney this year. I have a question about regulation with regard to social media Is it different for a partnership like this than it would be say for more traditional? Interchanges with financial partners yeah, Leslie It's a fascinating question because you know X money Twitter has been accumulating money transmitter licenses Listening to this guy, I think you're right about the delivery of the snowballs or whatever you put it. The snowstorms! Another guy yacking away like a maniac. Interchanges with financial partners? Yeah Leslie it's a fascinating question because Xmoney Twitter has been accumulating money transmitter licenses

1:17:54 in more than 30 states over the past year. So they're going to be what's more like Stripe or other fintech intermediaries where they're going to provide banking-like services without really going through the work of being a regulated bank and so I would think that there is some element in the banking universe, think community banks think smaller banks which are potentially protest this incursion by technology. Yeah we'll see I don't know, man. I don't know if people will trust their Twitter account with their money. I'm not so sure. Well bringing Visa in is probably a smart idea because they have a brand name. He's doing that... well, I think he's doing that because of Plaid. Visa owns Plaid. I think they own Plaid. I think they acquired Plaid and Plaid is the connector That's how Venmo does it. That's how Cash App does everyone you know So there's this maybe for the streets but I don't know

1:18:48 I don't know how that's going to work. Which brings us to the contentious conversation we need to have, but I actually think we're both on the same side of this but maybe approach it from slightly different vectors? I like this new word today, vectors. Vectors! Today's word is vector. No its anachronism. That's a secret word We go to NPR for some in-depth reporting on Deepseek tech stocks have plummeted around the world over the past day as investors digest reports that a Chinese company developed a competitive AI model on the cheap. The company is called deep seek and it even caught President Trump's eye the release of deep seek by the way There's something with the president's voice here

1:19:37 And by the way, Cheap Seek is what I call it. Yes, yes, I know and I heard it was funny but you already used that on DH Unplugged as a title so... So I can't use it again? No! It's not even funny. I already heard it's not even funny anymore. Cheap Seek The president's voice is very weak here and it's uncharacteristic. That could be the marking. Mmmmm....I don't know. Heditive AI model on the cheap The company is called DeepSeak and they'd even caught President Trump's eye. The release of Deep Seek AI from a Chinese company should be a wake-up call for our industries that we need to be laser focused on competing to win. And here's John Rueh, which is online now from China to help make sense of how big a deal this actually is. We've got a guy in China! Hi there So first of all tell us about this company that many people including me just heard of now

1:20:27 Yeah, DeepSeek is a spin-off from the Chinese hedge fund. It was established just two years ago in 2023 and it's based in the eastern city of Hangzhou which is sort of tech hub here in China. And in a nutshell what they did was hire top notch engineers and develop new algorithms basically more efficient ways of training and running artificial intelligence with less computational power. And what's the significance to that? Well, the product is said to rival tools from competitors like OpenAI and Google in terms of what it can do. Things like analyzing data and solving complex problems. It's impressed a lot of people. It rattled markets. And what rattled the markets is the narrative which comes with some caveats that DeepSeek basically did it all cheaper quicker and with less powerful microprocessors than its big competitors

1:21:12 It's no surprise this comes out of Hangzhou because it is a very Hangzhou type of company. I couldn't resist. One more clip and then we'll discuss. Okay, so tell us more about those caveats Sure, the first one is around cost. DeepSeek says that it spent under $6 million to make this thing. That's tiny relative to the hundreds of millions of dollars that others are investing—even billions—but analysts say that low figure is easy to misinterpret because it doesn't include for instance the cost of developing various versions from which this latest version was distilled so we really don't

1:21:49 We don't know what the total development cost was, how inexpensive it was. The second caveat has to do with the hardware, has to do with the chips that are critical to developing AI. Okay tell us more about that. The Biden administration banned the best AI microprocessors from being sold to China. Were they able to get around it? It's tricky you know... The chips that really matter for AI are made by Nvidia which, by the way took a massive tumble on the stock market after the DeepSea news. Back in 2022, NVIDIA were told they couldn't sell their best product to China. Of course some of those chips were already there and some may have leaked in but they made a slightly downgraded version at the time that they could sell to China legally. That's what DeepSeek says it used to train its latest model

1:22:30 The Biden administration subsequently decided that those chips were actually too powerful. They banned those ones from being sold to China, too. That was in 2023 a year had passed the horse was sort of out of the barn here's Gregory Allen the director of the Wadwani AI Center at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington We are currently living through the era of the lagging impact of the Biden administration's misfire in that first batch of AI export controls. All right, so you've looked at this I heard some of your conversation and I have some thoughts as well. I'd love to hear what your take is on Cheap Seek

1:23:10 On sheep's, well a couple of things. This was discussed and people should go back and listen to DH Unplugged which we don't promote enough on the show. Which is on Wednesdays, Wednesday night you do it live but there is a podcast you can always download it. It's very good although Andrew is getting a little uppity I think he lost money. I think he lost money on this somehow, which is not good because Tina has her retirement fund with him...I think you lost money bigly somehow. He seems pretty chipper to me! I don't know what your thinking? He sounded uppity like he was choppy and slicey.

1:23:50 Maybe what he does I maybe subscribe to the bullcrap about you don't you think that all AI is crap so So this so that's a little different than what? I think and I think that would cheap seek is doing here is doing things best price, which is to look at The reason I'm gonna say this is because I ran a What Is the No Agenda show. Somebody sent me a link to it, to a cheap seek results on what's the no agenda show and there was a rundown of the show and it was pretty accurate. And I said that's pretty good. So I decided to do the same search on perplexity and grok and chat GPT and they all had the same elements within them although they weren't summarized as well. And I'm getting the impression

1:24:36 CheapSeek is using probably distributed system to go into the other systems, take their stuff and use the AI mechanism to take that stuff as the language model they want to use and then just shrink it down a little more and give it back to you. I just don't think they're doing anything from a point of originality. I think there derivative. I think this something of a scam So I downloaded... Because the results were basically the same as the other guys, only it wasn't as much of it. They just shortened it down a little bit. No, no, I have a slightly different take on that. I downloaded the R1 V3 model and some of the other ones and I run that here locally which is kind of to me the story because its all open source you know? It'll just come down to compute how much compute do you have to run it fast for millions of users

1:25:35 I disconnected... On your little B-links. That's how my start nine, but equivalent, equivalent and I disconnected network access so it could not go out to the Internet. So you couldn't cheat? It couldn't go out and cheat. So it's what they call a model distillation And really The thing is, these are not benchmarks. You know? Tell me about the NO Agenda show... So what?! I mean go to Wikipedia! That's where it's getting it from but I think that what I'm happy about- Actually its NOT Well what I'm happy about

1:26:14 is that this will only accelerate the entropy. There's just more crap that's gonna come out, they're done! No one has any more data to scrape so on this model you know Sam Altman apparently is already saying they stole our data well you stole it from us in the first place ya douche You're stealing everything Everything... It has to degrade sooner or later and its still... Not if you lock it down Its still not really impressive you know, yeah it can write an email. Yeah it can... I used for Bible scripture and oh good geez! It ingested every single book of the Bible, every translation. Wait stop. What?

1:26:53 What do you mean, you use it for Bible scripture? You're writing tracts or are you doing some... what are you using it for Bible scripture for?" If I want to find a Bible passage about a certain situation, it can usually come up with something pretty good. Do you still use one of those Bible search engines? There's a bunch of them and they have all the different versions of the Bibles. So they've ingested that so the inference is, I want a scripture that talks about this And then you can say, and by the way answer me as a Southern Baptist pastor. It's hilarious Let me tell you my friend No it is so it does that kind of stuff

1:27:32 I think it's really good for repetitive tasks if you can train your own model, which eventually will be coming. But none of it is really impressive to me. You really detest this? It's not impressive! There's a note of detestation... Well yes there is. I want it to die. I wanted to die a horrible death. Why?! Because it's annoying It's annoying. What's annoying about it? What's annoying to me is that everywhere I turn there's AI, so now France comes out with an AI chatbot that they were going to put into the schools

1:28:09 and the don't find this hilarious I mean good for the show but then I go someone sends me a report it's a crappy AI voice reading a report about AI welcome to generative AI news today we delve into the story of Lucy France's ambitious AI chatbot that recently made headlines for all the wrong reasons launched with high hopes and national pride Lucy was designed to embody European values and challenge the dominant dominance of English language AI tools. Backed by President Macron and public funds, it aimed to promote cultural diversity and digital sovereignty. However just days after its launch Lucy faced widespread criticism for providing inaccurate and nonsensical responses. Users reported that the chatbot made historical inaccuracies such as stating that Herod the Great played a role in developing the atomic bomb and bizarre claims like cows eggs being a healthy food source these errors led to mockery and concern

1:29:05 especially when it was revealed that Lucy was intended for use in French schools. In response to the backlash, Linagora, the French open source software firm leading the project temporarily suspended Lucy. They acknowledged that The Chatbot was an academic research project in its early stages and admitted that the launch was premature. The firm expressed regret stating we got carried away by our own enthusiasm this incident highlights the challenges and complexities of developing AI tools that are both accurate and culturally relevant So I guess maybe my, I'm trying to think. I love that story! Come on! No but i'm trying to examine where my disdain comes from and I think it comes from

1:29:46 This promise and I have friends who are, it's the same friend who tells me he can't wait to pull up with his flying car and park it in my front yard. I'm like Vic, It's not going to happen. You're gonna bring some cow eggs over now He's also selling AI into where works is like telemarketing you know that kind of stuff But I think, you know humans is go humans. We're gonna have to come back to humans because the it's like the hoverboard It's never really going to pay off They made a huge mistake by releasing chat GPT and you know And they did all for greed it's all for money Sam Altman drives of four million dollar movie. I know it's it's disdain for brooch

1:30:27 It's disdain for Silicon Valley, it's disdain for the wasted energy and just nonsense. And eventually we saw what happened one little blip and you know 600 billion dollars... As a child of Silicon Valley which you are whether you like it or not This is unbelievable to listen to this. I am the antithesis to Silicon Valley, the antithesis! You've gone out and done your Silicon Valley game bull crap? And I hated it! That doesn't mean anything you hated it because it sucks It's horrible. It's not an efficient way to progress technology. I like the open source stuff but no one has come...it's all parlor tricks

1:31:10 Nothing is impressive, nothing is without error and the only thing that this may show is that by running smaller language models you'll get mistakes cheaper. What is it really telling me? But oh no, we've got to get it into government. OpenAI has launched ChatGBT Gov a new platform specifically designed for US government use which builds upon the security features of ChatGBT Enterprise This new product enables government agencies to implement sensitive non-public data into OpenAI's models while maintaining the security of their own hosting environments

1:31:49 Since the start of 2024 over 90,000 government employees at various levels have utilized check GBT to generate over 18 million prompts for tasks such as document translation and summarization policy memo drafting code generation and application development I mean it says something when Apple stock goes up because they have been very cautious in And like, you know we're not really putting much... We're gonna brand it a little bit kind of. But there really has been no innovation in technology since the smartphone I mean has there really been anything exciting and new? And now it's already all It's Chinese! You can't run this they're spying on you! Oh I'm so tired of it! Just tired. It's funny for the show. It's funny So I don't mind that

1:32:40 Let's just wear it. Show me something, you know give me my hoverboard! You know this constant and hundreds of billions of dollars just send it to us for the show stop I...you don't understand my complaint? No no and no he doesn't understand okay But I admire it because you're consistent. Yeah, do you use... You don't vary, you're not wavering Do you use AI or chat GPT in your daily life regularly and do you find it efficient? Tell me what you use it for. I told you the one thing that I used instead of search engines I'll use perplexity or some by the way when they make mistakes which they do

1:33:30 It's obvious because it just says, what is this? This is bullcrap. This is not even close to anything that I am interested in or or it's just office. These numbers aren't accurate then you can go double check them using a regular search engine. So basically spent the wasted time and went back and had do extra work here now if I was going to complain about it, I would say it's the same thing as the problem you have with hand calculator in schools. Kids can't do math in their heads and so you go to a grocery store and you give somebody $2 bill for a buck fifty item, and they give you twenty one dollars and fifty cents change

1:34:16 because they put it into the machine. And so the machine tells them, you just gave him two bucks and the machine tells them to give you $21 back and they see that number and that's what they pull right out of the till this has happened to me more than once. This is because nobody's aware of anything there's just a lack of awareness and I'm fearful that because of the lack of awareness of reality At some point, the next generation coming up or the Z's or whoever comes after them will start to see this stuff as they'll be unable to look at a result and say no-no-no. This can't be right

1:34:59 Which is what you would do at the cash register, but that's already done. No one can do it they can't as I mentioned this on the show before it like I'm at a store and some one kid who was walking past and he says oh its three o'clock we gotta get out of here and the other kids says to him Oh! You can read clock? You can read clock It's like Chinese you can read Chinese or you can read clock So the kid says, you can read clock? He says yeah. And he said oh wow and then they leave this on their way but when I heard that phrase I said oh my god this is not good and this is like people can't read cursive they can't read clock and they won't be able to see that a perplexity result is bullcrap

1:35:48 So that's what my concern is. Right, well that kind of... But your theory is that because it's gonna deteriorate to such an extreme that we won't get to my fear? No! Well my hope, my hope is that a deteriorates through an extreme so for instance so I use chat GPT and because you questioned this and I said here was my question find Bible Scripture when I'm annoyed by an older colleague And it sends, at least it's very good. It sends back Leviticus 19 32. Leviticus the worst by the way. Stand up in the presence of the aged show respect for the elderly and revere your God I am the Lord there you go so

1:36:32 Yeah, well that's what Mimi says. Mimi said that gee Adam is acting a lot nicer towards you I wonder why and I said it because he has become born again That's right And she says no that can't be it but now you have just actually confirmed what my theory was Again, I'm right on the money Yeah and I didn't need Chat GPT to tell you are right Absolutely Be quick to listen Slow to speak Even slower to get angry Yes That's correct I know you get a kick out of it. Well, the funny thing is that I actually believe you did this look up Yeah, of course I did! Of course yeah, no I did. Thanks for that Let's talk about getting fired because we have several boots on the ground reports which i think are interesting from our audience because they go little bit against the narrative We go back to Miss Leavitt DeBeaver

1:37:28 regarding the mass federal employee buyout. We want to start with the administration's offer to buy, would a mass buy out of federal employees out there how many do you hope will take it and by what percentage did the president want to downsize the federal workforce? Well, good morning Michael. It's great to see you thanks for having me on the program this is another promise made and kept by President Trump he told the American people on the campaign trail that he was going to make our federal government more efficient and productive And it is a fact that only 6% of the federal workforce here in Washington DC actually shows up to the office That is completely unacceptable Middle class Americans are teachers, nurses law enforcement officers

1:38:13 this economy working, show up to the office every single day and President Trump expects that federal employees do the same. So his order as presented in that memo last night directs federal agencies to come up with a return-to-work policy for their agencies and if federal bureaucrats in this city don't like that well guess what they can resign from their positions and this administration is offering them eight months of pay. They will be paid through September just to simply resign from their positions." Now what I thought was interesting is that when this order came out, kind of the same day I kept receiving emails from people saying keep me anonymous! This is going around... Yeah everyone's forwarding things. I took the memo that you had it too. Somebody sent us the entire memo and I cut and pasted the appropriate part and put in the last newsletter

1:39:03 that a lot of people didn't get because they're not complaining to Spam Assassin, oh that the newsletter is not showing up but it was in there you could read it yourself if you were yeah. But my point here is that it was policy! It wasn't like some secret thing but this is kind of how broken the whole system is. Yeah I agree so here's boots on the ground Adam I have to wait... The memo is out there I have to weigh in on all the stuff happening with Trump and the federal workforce, mostly because this is complete bullcrap. Fork in the road! That was the title of the email. Fork in the Road. Okay here it is...I work from home and I work my ass off and a lot of us do. I'm a team lead HR specialist for CBP Customs Border Patrol. I don't mind going to work every day in person but can we have a little respect?

1:39:52 There's a ton of waste, systems that don't work, lazy and overpaid people. Things need to change but getting people to quit isn't actually going to fix the problem it's literally just a publicity stunt I cut down the federal government no you got a bunch of people quit because you didn't fix anything we're just going to hire everyone back I guess they're really frustrated because they just introduced a new HR payroll system at CBP that's a complete failure. We have to go with the new system because we spent too much already, pay gets delayed our hands are tied due to system glitches no one is going to be held accountable it's all bull crap and we

1:40:28 the lowest on the lower level are left to take the blame for leadership and programmers bad work. So as much as I don't regret voting for Trump, Don't talk to me about Forks in The Road and this self-righteous bullcrap! It's a publicity stunt. I lived through the Vax mandate. I'll live through this because people still need to get paid and someone needs to sort through people's mistakes. Mistakes made by the higher ups that we got blamed for drain the swamp my ass it should be steady and meticulous I see waste every day maybe they should ask me but insulting your whole workforce and getting people to quit won't change anything it's a scam! I think we need Doge, Doge to the rescue. Wow. Yeah that guy is on a roll But there...is a girl actually this is um well she's good

1:41:15 Well, I think she makes a good point. It's like what you need... You need to do that. You need a suggestion box She likes working at home and I... I was waiting for your analysis of this She likes working for work. She likes working at home and now she's irked because it has been going on for years now, and it's like if you can't... Again talking about what you mentioned earlier the Substack column, if you go to Dvorak.Substack.com there is a old column I wrote about a year or two ago about how working at home is not what its cracked up to be cause' I've been doing it most of my life and I know how it works and why it works and doesn't work and some people can do it and some people cant

1:41:57 and is overrated. You still wake up grumpy, whether you're working from home or not! So the point... But I can see her position she's like what you know she got it all worked out and she's doing a good job but lot of people i mean most public relations people nowadays work from home and they don't have two big offices anymore that and in some it's a good way to save money because you don't have two offices you have to deal with You know, they don't have a coffee machine. They have coffee at the house There's a lot of benefits to it But at the same time and I think publicity stunt idea is not bad I have two clips one which goes beyond the publicity stunt but I want you to play your Rap this if you got more before I play these too No III want to come back to your working-at-home and your grumpiness, but I'll do that after your clips. They'll be fine

1:42:50 Well, the first is just a general clip which I thought was the classic you know backgrounder and this is the worker buyouts NTD clip. The Trump administration is offering substantial buyout to federal workers as part of a plan to drastically shrink the government. NTD's Daniel Monahan has sprung on these so-called deferred resignation program The program allows federal employees to stay on the payroll until September 30th without having to work. A mass email was sent to federal workers giving them until February 6th, to decide whether to participate. The unprecedented message instructed those interested to simply reply with the word resign! The offer applies to most civilian employees

1:43:34 excluding those in immigration, national security and the postal service. The government currently employs around 2.3 million civilian workers not counting postal employees. The email warns that those who decline the offer should expect a shift toward a more streamlined workforce based on four key pillars return to office ending remote work performance culture, implementing updated standards to reward top performers while addressing those who fail to meet expectations. More streamlined and flexible workforce downsizing federal agencies through restructuring realignments and layoffs and enhanced standards of conduct tightening workplace rules. Now that I'm thinking about this wouldn't it be better instead of complaining to a podcast which i appreciate by the way

1:44:26 to take the buyout and then go public about these horrible systems. Say, you know I have something good again on TikTok And say, you know there's a problem with what's going on. I mean it's a good rant but you should just take the money and then be a whistleblower. I guess you can do that or maybe not? I don't know. I think you can. I don't think they're giving you non-disparagement clause to sign… But I think people should go public with this! What she said is important. Hey if there's a payroll problem we've gotta fix that. it's possible she won't get her money. Here is the deal, this is a local report from WAMU which I think is American University public radio station in DC and they bring in that maniac Tim Kaine who has a whole theory about this which I've not heard any place else yet but I think it could catch on. This is the Trump layoff scheme

1:45:24 The pressure from President Donald Trump is mounting on federal workers to return to the office full-time or quit. Last night, the Office of Personnel Management circulated a letter to federal workers. The letter offered quote deferred resignation to any federal worker who would take the offer by February 6th The offer would allow workers to continue receiving their full benefits and pay through September 30th. An OPM spokesperson says employees that accept the deferred resignation would be put on administrative leave until they depart Virginia Senator Tim Kaine speaking on the Senate floor called it a classic move in the president's business playbook. Yeah, the President has tried to terrorize you for about a week and then gives you a little sweetheart offer if you resign in the next week we're just gonna pay you for doing nothing for the next seven months don't be fooled he's tricked hundreds of people with that offer

1:46:18 If you accept that offer and resign, he'll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn't have any authority to do this." Kane added that Congress has not approved a budget item for such a move. Oh... Whoa! A little twist? Well yeah.... That seems like it would be a bad look if we did that I don't think this is good. Yeah I agree. Tim Kaine is nuts But I like them throwing it in. If you want to throw a wrench in the works and you want to create fear and doubt, uncertainty and doubt... Throw something like that out! How do you do that? What an asshole. I have a procedural issue I'd like to discuss just briefly since we both work from home and I don't have an HR department to complain too

1:47:06 Although you do our payroll, which I appreciate. When I forward an email to you...I forward and email to you Yeah You have this habit it's happened three times. I know exactly what you're gonna complain about And then you will reply to me and CC the original person with my comment to you! That is a total breach of netiquette and protocol That's your response? Is that what you expected me to say? No, no. I knew that i've been doing this but I don't know...I didn't know and I apologize for this that I am including your little

1:48:05 One on one gripe, because that's a back channel the way I see it. Yes! And I should not be putting that in there It should have been taken out but most of the time it goes like this You know you do something and now you send it to me and then... I'm sorry my time is limited its yes or no answer That is the end of that. I will be careful in the future because that is a huge mistake on my part But you took the time to copy and paste... I don't think it had to be made public, but okay thank you for pointing this out in public You take the time to copy and paste and then berate the person

1:48:44 And it was a simple meme, because you were grumpy. You did end with I woke up grumpy and like I said hey maybe something for the newsletter and then you wrote this sub stack email about why this meme was no good so it wasn't a huge problem but yeah...I just found it interesting No one has ever done that to me but you So it's okay. Okay, now I know to which specific email you're referring to...I did not think that this may be a good for the newsletter comment was a backchannel comment that was so secretive that i couldn't leave it in there! No, I'm using that example. The other ones are irrelevant because but it just makes me wear like... But okay, noted

1:49:35 Wow. You might just say F you it's noted, you have taught me well Dvorak I know all the tricks. I really do. I really do now. I just, anyway we're done apology accepted is no problem being on aim lame kind of your secretary. You know? It was like, I get all the emails for you, you know Johnson did a John should use your judge. Yeah. I said put your please email. I liked the last one recently forwarded and said I'm writing this to you because I can't spell Dvorak's name. It's on the website, it's on every album art that says Dvorak and Curry... Every single album art has got my name spelled! It was the same as the sub stack from our Wall Street guy Angel of Smyrna

1:50:25 And I spelled it five times in the podcast during the donation segment. And people like, yeah, I went to bingadadaio and I couldn't find it. Like no you didn't! You're lying just what you're lazy want me to look up a link for you? That's what it is It's all right we do this as public service We do all of this as public service and were happy too Were happy because I would...I could not imagine doing anything different or with anyone else John so just say know I love doing this. Did that come out of the biblical thing too? It sure did! Approach everyone with kindness, gentleness and love there you go and with that i want to thank you for your courage saying in the morning to you the man who put the sea in the cow eggs say hello to my friend on the other end the one the only Mr John C

1:51:11 Now, just because it's our... we do it every single show. What is normal for a Thursday? Is it 1800? Thursday 1800 yeah okay 2298 Yeah, that's good. That's like a low Sunday number But you know why? I wonder what they're gonna say about runway 33! Yeah, Runway 33. Which should be the title of this show. Runway 33 is kind of gruesome and maybe a little bit too early for it Not necessarily... but that is kind of true though People are so used to the algo chasers

1:52:03 You know, it's like oh I gotta check in see what those guys are saying about. Oh! I got to go to the YouTube and see what Tim Pool is saying. Oh! What does Megyn Kelly say about? By the way did you notice that Megyn Kelly was at Kennedy hearing sitting right behind Cheryl Hines No i didn't see that. I saw Cheryl...I didn't see Megyn was there Yes, she was sitting right in the row right behind her and it was only from I forgot which feed I got this from because they you defeat that you saw on C-SPAN didn't show it but if you went to NBC or somebody else You could see her. She was sitting right there and the way the shot was done It was like might as well been a shot at Megyn Kelly interesting so she was there hmm meanwhile, I thought that all she's talking about is the Ryan Reynolds wife and that

1:52:49 Actor dude who should do the movie with it. They're suing or whatever and all kinds of nonsense You talking about Blake Lively? Yes, Blakely you know about this! Who cares?! I was gonna do a series of clips for today's show actually Who cares but i went to page six post And they have this video feed that goes on and on and they're talking about This person in that person and I was going to just start clipping it Because I because I know you were gonna do the same. I have never heard of any of these people Well, I have it. I saw the movie It's quite a good movie actually and Blake Lively is married to Ryan Reynolds And you know this and by the way Candace Owens is all I mean, it's like look at the world around you That's like well but they're there dig. You know what? It's their niche let him go. It's good Let them do that

1:53:45 So not cruising around in our lane. Get out of here, get out of here Megan! She's a lawyer she loves this stuff family law... Yeah it's hard not to yeah she loves this stuff Thank you trolls for being here trollroom.io and of course the modern podcast apps go to podcastappsss.com with an S And get one of those because it has a lot of benefits including the live stream when we go live which you know, you can stick your earbuds in and listen at the office. Oh I'm sorry! You're working from home? Even better. Why don't just... Sorry I can't work right now. I'm listening to The Boys hearing what they're saying about Runway 33 is very important stuff

1:54:28 Of course, it has all of the fabulous chapters with art which Dreb sets up for us. You can actually skip around the topics like yeah remember they're talking you want to play something for someone here? Yeah this here boom click on and done is good I think in this segment we might as well read the note from Nessworks. Yeah, I was going to get to that Nesswork's won the... so what we're gonna you jump the gun a little bit because I need to say the words value-for-value because that's how how we function here. We have no HR department to complain to because, you know it's all value for value! It was just John Adam a little bit of Mimi A little bit of Jay Little bit of Tina But Jay is sick by the way...we should Oh what's wrong? I don't know she has some horrible cold or something she can barely talk Is it...is she coughing? Is in her chest cause there's a lot of that going on Yeah everyone's coughing Mimi had something too Could be tuberculosis You know there's a lot of that going around That's only in one

1:55:25 in Kansas, I think. Is it Kansas? All right well good! Well i'm sorry...I'm sorry feel better Jay she didn't mention that she just sent me the spreadsheet and went- No she doesn't because she's not a complainer She is not a complainer that she is the best employee we have which is great because she's the only employee we have Yeah pretty much yeah she's great So yes, value for value time talent or treasure and the artist. And this kind of falls flows into a lot of different conversations we're having because this was not an AI artwork piece that we chose for episode... Let me go to it 1733 We titled that one Rat Note! And this was the code that we uncovered cute winter boots and it was a duck with some cute winter boots It was just the best piece

1:56:15 And there's no doubt about it. Listen, before we I'd read that note from Nessworks and Ness works is the one who did it Now was there anything else that we looked at that? We that came close for us There were a lot of winter boots A lot of people try to do cute winter boots. We kind of liked Comics or blogger had a piece that reminded us of mad magazine which is probably where the original was stolen from by AI What else was there? Was it anything like season of reveal from Darren O'Neill was cute, but I was like, you know. He just takes the same prompt and just changes the term and it kind of pops out that way. Are you looking at all or are you just letting me talk into space here?

1:57:05 You've muted yourself, so we can't hear you. I'm back! It's illegal in many states... No what happens is when I click on the art sometimes if the arrow is in the wrong spot it clicks on the other window The little arrow. The little arrow, you click on the window and it's like... It exhibits me and then I don't know until you complain Your hand-eye coordination is interesting Yeah, no I was talking about Darren how he just... Oh the season of reveal yeah. He's got apparently one series of prompts that developed this particular... This started off as a circle and somehow he squared it. We just said make it square whatever. And most of the AI stuff was typically boring. My favorite was Peter Knopp Hart

1:57:58 who had the cheerleader and she, the pom-poms are hanging in space like they're stuck to her armpit hair. And her arms are very short if you look at it objectively. Yeah, an arm's a choice. The worst possible example of AI. The entropy has set in. It's obvious because this originally was a Scaramanga piece and now is just making it worse. A copy of a copy of a copy of a copy A lot of cute winter boots. But yeah, this was good! And I think we even said is this AI? Do you think it's AI? I don't know and if I recall you said there are probably elements of AI however

1:58:42 If we read the note, and this is a very nice note and artists will feel happy about this. But DeVoree just to say there's a cute little thing I didn't notice before but if you notices No Agenda the no is on the duck hat as though it was like a logo on the hat yeah that's cute because he's a pro Yeah. Feels awesome to get back on the board, show 1733 with cute winter boots just a bit of backstory in the piece I'd originally worked on this duck piece a couple years ago pre-AI there was backlash regarding security with DuckDuckGo hence the orange circle theme i was going with and wanted title of piece DuckDuckNo funny

1:59:22 I was inspired by the classic cartoon clip art look and based the piece on a Mallard Duck asset from iStock Photo. The reason I chose the iStock asset was because it reminded me of Donald Duck, but it wasn't Donald Duck as pertained to copyright etc. I was working on developing my outline and brush skills on the iPad in Procreate and recreated the main duck graphic. The topic did not get covered on the show so I archived that dot PNG graphic I created for possible future use." This is what artists do All artists do this. A friend of mine was a graphic designer and he had so many cows, smiling cows backed up that if you needed the cow whatever cow you wanted... He's had them from years ago They archive their work

2:00:11 When I heard the topic of cute winter boots on Sunday, I thought it'd be funny to have the duck holding a shotgun sporting a truckers hat and wearing a pair of oversized Timberlands. Cute winter boots! Using cute winter boots to try to confuse the algorithm. You're a quack lol I modified my original duck graphic in Photoshop, adding the shotgun and boots asset. Modifying the hands on the rifle and adding text. I mainly use photoshop for graphic asset manipulation, layered art design and occasionally use a custom cartoonizer program to achieve unique look and draw out pieces on my iPad when i have time I have not dove, dove? I think. I did not dive into the world of AI prompts as of yet. I dig some of it! I'm always blown away by Darren Francisco's and CSB's AI skills. I think y'all have nailed it in the art segment It still comes down to executing an idea. Darren is so funny talented and creative it shines through his pieces mm-hmm Scaramanga is brilliant

2:01:09 for boobs. It's impressive to me that he is concerned with the dimensionality and sound, specifically the Scaramanga. Dynamic range! Oh, the dynamic range... It's impressive to me that he has created and cultivated a style humor and design look that when you see a scaramanga piece you know it's a scaramanga piece good point. Capitalist agenda is amazing and I admire his drawing skills creativity and humorous ideas Mike Riley & Roundy they're gone No, Riley posts sometimes as well when they decide to post on the Art Generator. I was initially hit in the mouth approximately five years ago by my buddy Serdino The Monkey Boy with curly hair he gave me some sage advice regarding the art generator Here it is! Sage advice Strive to design a piece around a show subject that you might think will best represent The show that day which is exactly what I tried to do With AI on the last show and it came up with garbage

2:02:09 And he finishes by saying, shout out to the No Agenda artists who are talented at creating pieces on the fly during show days. Tontanil, Kenny Bend, Capitalist Agenda, Darren O, Scaramanga, Corrected Records, CSB, Nick The Rat and many more! I enjoy the competition and respect my fellow NA artists. I take pride in participating in the V for V process for this show and always feel fortunate when honored with a selection. Also as a NO AGENDA artists it's cool to check the show chapters in the Podcasting 2.0 app and see if a piece is used Hating that y'all have been dealing with some negativity in reference to the art segment, I wanted to send some positivity your way. Love you guys. Nesswork." Yeah there ya go! That is a great note! It sums it up completely. Little long... Well yeah he's an artist they're not writers

Incredibly grateful for all you do the tips of today have been almost as good as Adam not knowing what day it is. Adam being a productive heavy stoner one of my favorite pastimes was to get high and listen to The Best Podcast In The Universe You were high, I was high. It was great! When you stopped smoking, I couldn't help but be a bit bummed but got over it quickly shortly after I was inspired to quit smoking and its now been a full year since I've taken a puff. Alright! Congratulations! How did you think that? You are big part of that thank-you Adam

2:09:38 Boots on the ground every night for the past few weeks there have been multiple drones flying back and forth across downtown Chicago, and I'm surrounding in the surrounding neighborhoods. Sometimes i will see four of them flying around in the sky at one time. I'm writing this email as I write this email I can see two They're not planes, you can watch them fly the same path back and forth for hours. They likely belong and then they don't have anything after that. That's all I have! They like...they do! They likely belong Agreed they likely belong and since this is the donation segment the secret donation clip is coming your way People who skip over the donations segment miss all the good stuff. The Trump administration's explanation about drones in New Jersey were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons falling hollow in Belleville it was disappointing

2:10:37 I had expected a lot more. Mayor Michael Mellom says drones can still be seen scurrying at night you will see red and green blinking lights when they get over you that's what's confusing people when they get over you they look like a small aircraft, they are fixed wing drones the White House is vague explanation drumming up one major sentiment here disappointment i'm a little bit disappointed uh in the fact that The FAA didn't announce this and caused us to exhort a lot of manpower toward vetting suspicious activity reports. Disappointing, I mean to have a statement honestly it sounds like it's a cover story because they had no cover story It's disappointing when they don't communicate with their own Federal Bureau of Investigation the FBI who spent

2:11:24 hundreds and hundreds of man hours vetting through hundreds of phone calls to the tips line. Mayor Mellom and Monmouth County Sheriff Golden say they are less concerned about threat but feel more transparency is needed about exactly what's being researched, and why? You're flying around in urban areas and densely populated areas only 100 feet above our homes we are concerned! And we deserve to know what they're doing up there So that's an example of a crap report Really, really crap because it sounds like these people are disappointed that they're not flying saucers. They're not UFOs Here's what the White House press secretary actually said short and before I turn to questions I do have news directly from the president of the United States That was just shared with me in the Oval Office From President Trump directly an update on the New Jersey drones

2:12:17 After research and study, the drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons. Many of these drones were also hobbyists recreational in private individuals that enjoy Flying Jones In time, it got worse due to curiosity. This was not the enemy." Yes everyone was excited and flying their drone exactly as we posited! And the research... yeah this is a there's a base there they're they're flying their fixed-wing drones and doing stuff. How crazy was everyone over those drones for about a week? They were nuts over it. Listen to NOA Agenda people will calm you down

No it's universal digital id He goes on to say there are two alphanumeric sequences on the bottom of my Real ID driver's license that weren't on my old DL and I have no idea what they're for. It's to target you with a drone Also when i worked as a contractor for the RTC savings and loan bailout in the early-to mid 90s when contracts came up to be bid on only minority owned companies were allowed to bid, And that was 35 years ago! So large companies just formed a joint venture with some minority owned company and bid on the contracts using the loophole

I know you don't like it when i do this, but you filled up the intro of that jingle with I love my truck perfectly It was tight and there are radio professionals around the world right now going wow how did those guys do it? You're right. It was awesome! That was really good, I just have to say it... I had it at the ready waiting for the moment Yeah right okay it was planned perfectly planned So I do have some clips that are unreported in the mainstream media I want to play because I'll bet you don't what you know about Mega? Is that uh the big guy from New Zealand's place Mega

2:20:59 The mega, megacorp? What's his name... what was the guy? The German guy. Dot com! Kim! Yeah, Kim dot com yeah that guy Nope This is no I'm not aware this mega when i heard this story said this is not being this is like literally not being reported anywhere as though it's not even happening but it is You'll find out all about it by unreported mega one. Conservative movements and politicians rallied in Brussels for a make Europe great again meeting they talked about how European countries could follow the example of the new Trump administration and some of its policies NTD's international correspondent David Vives reports from Brussels

2:21:40 More than 50 politicians across Europe, mostly members of parliament state officials or former ministers have gathered today in Brussels. They rallied under the slogan make Europe great again This said that Trump's victory has empowered conservative movement across Europe and are envisioning a future where European policies could follow the path set by the US president Speakers said the Trump administration set an example to follow. Up until now, people have been told we can't protect our borders We can't close our border It's impossible! We simply can't do it Even if you wanted to, it is impossible And now Donald Trump says guess what I'm just doing it So of course and then people will say wait a minute...it IS possible to do that Of course its possible

2:22:26 Oh, that's Christine. The Christine Anderson? Christine what's her name? Yeah I can't remember her name... She's a heavy hitter so mega! That's interesting yeah this is not of course who wants to report just because we have to be taught the American public has to think that Trump is an international divisive figure Do they have red hats It was a radio press, I didn't see it. Well here's an opportunity people this is noagendashop.com Here is a marketing opportunity just saying Make Europe great again here's clip two of this They also say European countries should work to defend their values and identities

2:23:08 We need to defend our European civilization, which is something quite different from just the current globalist trend. I want to refer us to a very specific historical cultural and spiritual identity and which today is seriously threatened both by the threat posed by woke ideology. We need to find back faith tradition also belief in God Trump's diplomacy toward Europe seems to have taken a different turn from his first term. Top EU diplomat Kaja Kalas said she invited US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to a foreign ministers meeting to strengthen ties, but was offered no answer. According to an article published by Politico President Donald Trump may prefer to deal directly with individual state members rather than EU officials

2:23:54 This potential strain in relations may benefit European leaders who align their policies on Donald Trump's approach. According to President of the Italian think tank Nazione Futura, Francesco Giubile, EU top officials have distanced themselves from Trump in the past which may explain the situation. You know what I'm noticing? In a lot of these clips God seems to be trending Well, God's trending every now and again but it was overdue. Now there are a couple of other things that were... You mean the Third Awakening? It comes and goes. I want to mention something else before we play the last clip which is that even though they're not part of Make Europe Great Again is that I was thinking about this because you had me or you got me watching The Diplomat which is

2:24:47 kind of a wokish, but interesting... Well done show. Very- the structure of the story is terrific! I think this is the first time I've actually got you to watch a show and stick with it It's because it's one of the best written shows on television Have you seen Landman? I'm not gonna watch Landman or anything to do with Yellowstone No no, it has nothing to do with Yellowstone Oh, I'll check Landman out some other time But I'm going back to, this is not the point of trying to make it. And then there's this other show which is Black Dove which by the way had to stop watching it We stopped! No its unwatchable It got really teased only because what's-her-face isn't in that we watched at least two episodes? Keira Knightley but oh no it's horrible

2:25:42 But then there's and then there's the agency. Yes now what are these three shows have in common spooks? What else do they have in common gay sex? Yeah I'm like, okay. I'm not gonna go on and on but what they really have in common is a is a kind of, I'd say, presentation of the British Empire as a bunch of screwed up A-holes. Yes! All three shows are about how screwed up and how crummy the Brits are That's a good point And this fits right in with Elon Musk being the hitman for Trump going after Keir Starmer or whatever his name is The Prime Minister of England

2:26:31 I think you've identified an important trend here. This trend is huge and what they're doing is that we're cutting off England because, I don't these storylines were started long before Trump showed up and won But these story lines began some time ago this hatred of England. We're turning on England for some reason, I'm not sure How about but it was how about that? They stand for everything perpendicularly opposite to America like they are against free speech Yeah There all kinds they have all kinds of issues going on over there the throat They're threatening us by saying we're gonna we're gonna extradite anybody who says anything that we don't like. Yep, yep. And starmer

2:27:12 is a creep and the fact that he sent people over to campaign for Kamala Harris, it's not sitting well. And these three shows and I think there are other shows too that are showing up are so anti-English There is a major movement going on this anti England and we should be aware of it Well come to think of it when was the last time you saw UK on a spreadsheet? I haven't seen them. They're not donating, they've left the building! Oh that's a good... well we had... yeah you're right one or two. We probably have been cut off we probably can't get our message into the country Hey get some thumb drives and drop them off in the UK these people need help they need help from us it's so hard to cover the actually I have a funny you bring this up I have a Prime Minister question time quick clip

2:28:08 Let's play that right after the number three. Okay, number three here we go position of the European Union in the last few years Was a position totally against the Republican Party and the position totally against Donald Trump But now we must have a real politic He believes Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, who was the only European head of state invited to Donald Trump's inauguration could be a leading figure for Europe.

2:28:44 And having a prime minister which can talk with him in a good relationship like Giorgio Meloni, can be something good for all the European Union. Was she there? Was she at the inauguration did she go? I don't know i think so... She might have been! She should've invited! She should have been Elon's date! I'm surprised he didn't walk here or Obama's date for that matter she could have been anybody's date huh This is a very interesting trend. Thank you for identifying this, this is very... particularly with the Hollywood stuff because it's all Hollywood It's Netflix really I think isn't most of this Netflix? What is Black Doves? The agency is Showtime Okay Black Doves

2:29:26 Black Dove and The Diplomat are both Netflix. Netflix, yeah... huh! Well here's the Prime Minister's question time Turning now to the United States Can the Prime Minister guarantee that he will not sell out Britain's fantastic farmers to Donald Trump in a trade deal that undermines our high food and animal welfare standards in the way that the Conservatives sold them out? In Australia-New Zealand deals Mr. Speaker, we will work with the US We will work with other countries but we will never lower our standards Yeah! We don't want you You can have our government cheese Yeah...We gotta be anti-England now This is interesting I know that Ursula... Once you spot this trend i think were gonna start seeing a lot of it Well Ursula has been...Ursula Queen Ursula has really been trying to

2:30:23 you know, to step up and she's like we're going to reboot everything but we're still gonna be green. I was looking at her like, I don't think so and of course were also stopping all the...I so agree with this Of course we need to quickly reinstate things that are killing people but the withholding all foreign aid is kind of cool It's like, let's just stop for a second and see what everybody thinks when we shut down. Which hopefully, well actually it brings us a rare Africa news clip. Hundreds of aid programs are on edge after US President Donald Trump paused trillions of dollars in federal spending domestic and foreign the global impact of U.S. foreign aid is massive it funds programs fighting disease malnutrition and human trafficking security programs and aid for pregnant women and babies three

2:31:23 million lives a year are saved just from USAID-funded immunization programs. The White House says Trump ordered the freeze to root out any funding that isn't consistent with his agenda. So what does this pause mean? It means no more funding for illegal DEI programs, it means no more funding for the green new scam that has cost American taxpayers tens of billions of dollars. It means no more funding for transgenderism and wokeness across our federal bureaucracy and agencies Initially, only emergency food programs and military aid to Israel and Egypt were exempt from the foreign aid pause. But after international uproar Secretary of State Marco Rubio granted a waiver to continue funding humanitarian programs that provide life-saving medicine medical services food shelter and subsistence assistance

2:32:17 Still, many organizations are unclear whether they are allowed to operate and worry about losing staff and infrastructure. Trump's order is being challenged in U.S. courts, and Tuesday a judge temporarily blocked the directive The White House says it will defend the funding freeze and this fight is likely to go all the way to the Supreme Court. This is how a businessman thinks, like okay let me shut it all off let's see who comes crying first and we'll evaluate on our first come-first serve basis It sounds cruel but it is our money

2:32:55 Yeah, I think the clip I have which includes this screwy one. This is the one that's unfortunately it's smudged but it has condom bombs in the title Yes, I have it here. And during the signing ceremony today President Trump also announced a new order to send up to 30 thousand illegal immigrants or what he calls worst of the worst into Guantanamo Bay and President Trump's borders are Tom Homan talking to us on The White House campus this afternoon told us that that's already actually expanding an existing migrant center at Gitmo watch

2:33:32 We detained the worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people. Some of them are so bad we don't even trust the countries to hold them. The significant public safety threats, we can fly it? We're doing it! We're already doing it! We identified and stopped 50 million dollars being sent to Gaza to buy condoms for Hamas. 50 million and you know what's happened to them? They've used them as a method of making bombs What?! You haven't heard this? No, how they make bombs out of condoms? They use the bombs is some sort of like a balloon

2:34:10 And then they hang some, you know explosive off a bunch of them and then they just fly them over. That's what they say I mean it just is news to me the condom bombs If its condoms that's a lot of rubber that your sending over there 50 million I don't know what they cost its been awhile Well that number changes from 50 million to and I've heard 15 now, so I don't know well Kristi Noem is our new secretary of the Department of Homeland Security Yeah before you discuss this if you listen to that last clip when they're talking about opening up Gitmo for 30 sending people there She said if she's very subtly. She said I caught it. She says we already are Already Oh sending people to get Mo

2:34:52 Yeah, I think that's a secret that she dropped. But anyway go on. Well, I very much enjoyed her talking about my favorite topic which is the NGOs which is, and she actually explains how she whether it's true or not incorrectly thought you know NGOs are doing good things so it's nonprofit. It's good for people and these are of course this in some cases billion-dollar organizations run sadly run by many faith based organizations like the

2:35:28 Catholic Bishops Conference, which I don't know if there's a Catholic or Bishop actually in the organization but it's it's a money-making scheme and its hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars and she lays it out as we've cut it all off. network of NGOs that help facilitate it through Panama, through Mexico and make it a landing spot here in the United States is a massive contributor here to illegal immigration. So what you're telling us today is that now stops? At least the federal funding of that stops? Yes sir, the Department of Homeland Security we have stopped spending those dollars to fund those NGOs and well what's been so revealing as many of these NGOs actually have infrastructure and operations set up in Mexico

2:36:31 on that side of the border, that are telling those illegal immigrants to come to them and they will get them across the border. So they're not just operating in the United States, they're operating outside of the United States to help make it easier for those who want to break our laws. And while I was one of those Americans years ago when somebody said NGO to me, I thought oh that's amazing! That's a non-profit that is out there telling somebody about Jesus or spreading faith and salvation, or doing good work and charitable work helping people that are less fortunate. And then I realized over the years it's been perverted into this shadow government. An NGO is sometimes an operation that does things that the government cannot do can't legally do so they create an entity to use government dollars taxpayer dollars to do something that the federal government isn't allowed to do right? To do a shadow government operation

2:37:25 that really has been used recently to undermine our country's national security. This is, I mean wow how long we've been talking about this since Obama days. Forever? Since Obama days and of course with the president new president we have to set the doomsday clock again. We've been tracking the doomsday clock for many years and of course i keep track of these clips this is a doomsday clock in Trump 1 The board concludes in no uncertain terms that words matter in ensuring the safety and security of our planet. They are not the same as actions, but they matter a lot especially when the risks of accident and miscalculation are so high. The first has been the cavalier and reckless language used across the globe especially in the United States during the presidential election and after around nuclear weapons and nuclear threats

2:38:18 And the second is a growing disregard of scientific expertise. Expertise that is needed when it comes to responding to pressing global challenges, including climate change. The board takes the unprecedented step for the first time in its history of moving the clock hand 30 seconds closer to midnight. Today we moved the clock half minute closer to midnight. It's now two and a half minutes to midnight." Channel lost there two and a half minutes to midnight in 2017 we go back to last the last time we Honestly pulled the clip. The doomsday clock in 2023 now they call it the Doomsday Clock And it symbolizes just how close humanity is to self-annihilation? closer the clock gets to midnight, the more danger we're all in

2:39:08 Well the sad news is that a couple of factors have resulted in that doomsday clock advancing by 10 seconds, meaning we're now just 90 seconds to midnight. So we went from two and half minutes... through Trump and Biden somehow to 90 seconds in 2023. And boy, here is today's announcement it's a shocker. It is the determination of the Science and Security Board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists that the world has not made sufficient progress on existential risks threatening all of humanity. We thus move the clock forward, any move towards midnight should be taken as an indication of extreme danger and an unmistakable warning this is the closest the world has ever been to midnight So what do you think they moved it too? It was 90 seconds to midnight in 2023 What do you think they moved it to

2:40:08 I know what they moved it to, but the question in my mind is where are all these intermediate steps between... They just left? ...2017. We must be missing clips! No no i don't think they've uh-I don't think they did it in those years during Biden, no I mean, the thing is that the photo...I think it's 8 seconds now. No no they moved it one second to 89 seconds Oh was it 89? One second! Well they show a picture of The Clock and these two scientists and these two scientists especially the guy on the right if anyone can find this photo

2:40:45 He looks like just a depressed sad sack character. It's like you look at it and say, this guy is not going to make the 90 seconds! I mean this isn't... But what so odd is that these guys are the organization of nuclear atomic scientists? You know, and you heard in that 2017 clip. Oh it's about climate change! It's all about climate change. Listen to the rest... Arms control treaties are in tatters and there are active conflicts involving nuclear powers The world attempts to deal with climate change remain inadequate Nuclear powers and climate change As most governments fail to enact financing and policy initiatives necessary to halt global warming Financing? You bet

2:41:29 Advances in an array of disruptive technologies, including biotechnology, artificial intelligence and in space have far outpaced policy regulation. And a thorough understanding of their consequences all of these dangers are greatly exacerbated by potent threat multiplier yet to take it one second closer to midnight police the spread of misinformation disinformation and conspiracy theories that degrade the communication ecosystem, and increasingly blur the line between truth and falsehood. Yes we've broken this messaging system The only effective response is for nations to work together which is why it's so alarming that President Trump has signaled his intention to withdraw

2:42:20 from the Paris Agreement. In this crucial year for climate action, we urge all other signatories to double down and reaffirm their commitment to meeting the Paris goals." So that only lost us one second? Ehhh... That doesn't seem so bad! I mean, considering it was two and a half minutes in 2017. Well this time... you know 2017 to today there's a lot more time- I mean this clock doesn't make any sense! No kidding no kidding

2:43:01 It's such a stupid thing. Climate, I'm so sick of it! Is everyone else sick of this? No... I think you've taken this optimistic attitude about being sick of stuff and fed up and everybody knows and all this other stuff which is just a joke What, climate change is a joke or? No no your attitude as if this is like everyone's noticing. You're inaccurate! Nobody is picking... I mean we're a small niche

2:43:37 of people that have a clue. Well, everybody... All the listeners and producers of this show I'd say we have a good but they're all susceptible to being pulled away from it by the mainstream media which is still lying No! I think the mainstream media is over It's done its toast no more You can say that all you want I will and I want and I will continue to say it Yes you will Because it's true Its Joe Rogan That's it. It's all we need. I'm going to shut down the whole podcasting business! You're gonna be on The Rogan Show pretty soon, again after a two-year hiatus. I wasn't gonna mention anything. Oh iIm sorry I did was it going to be a surprise? Yeah wanted everyone to be astounded. The reason why I wasn't gonna say anything is because of the TJs What's that? Huh...the Tell Joes

2:44:31 Oh, ha! Hey man tell Joe the Bitcoin is the way to go. Hey man tell Joe he's got to get in with Jesus. Hey man tell Joe, tell Joe, tell Joe... I get a lot of that I'm gonna send a message out to everybody. Do not send Adam any suggestions as to what to tell Joe! You want to tell Joe something? He's got an ex-Twitter account, he's got his name Joe Roach just send him a note right there on the Twitter Tell him yourself! Tell Joe!!!

2:45:07 It's really amazing. People are excited, that's what I understand people just excited they're excited one of our own is going on yes yeah and on before two or three times you like a regular this will be my fifth time but it's been two years has been a very long time so it's not really regular You know, that's regular enough. I keep getting bummed for like Trump, Vance, Musk... I'm sure there was no one available! Well you are at best the reliable substitute, the Tony Randall as it were. Yes, yes, Tony Randall, Regis Philbin exactly perfect. The Joan Rivers? Yeah here he comes. Who didn't show up? Oh a guy called Adam

2:46:00 As we, I guess are in the season of reveal. The CIA has come out with some... Oh this is a time surprise yeah! I didn't clip this but yeah well I got it from CBS because we need to take a medical approach to this story with Dr. Celine Gounder China said today that it's quote extremely unlikely that Wait wasn't dr. Celine the one who lost her husband who died during the sporting event? Died suddenly I think she is. Well, we don't know but yeah. What is that? Editor at large!

2:47:11 Why has the CIA shifted its stance toward this and remind us what the other possibilities were? I mean, I remember only a few years ago the wet market in Wuhan. Why that maybe isn't their prevailing theory anymore for the CIA? She doesn't need to remind us you just did it! John Ratcliffe, who's the new head of the CIA has long thought that COVID was a result of a lab leak. Again this is not the result of any new intelligence per se but really how people synthesize analyze and weigh the existing evidence But I think it's also important to emphasize that the confidence that the FDA or excuse me CIA has in this assessment is low confidence And so I think big picture we still really don't know when we may never really know where COVID emerged from

2:47:56 What kind of analysis is she giving? What?! We may never know. We may never know, well let's talk about the theories. What is the lab leak theory again just catch us up to speed The idea being that there may have been an accident in a lab where scientists were working on COVID or COVID-like viruses, perhaps mutated at some point to become COVID. And in fact there are different theories about even which lab you have the Department of Energy that thinks it was from the Wuhan Center for Disease Control. You have the FBI which has said with moderate confidence that they think it comes from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the CIA has not said which lab they think it came from but I think it might come

2:48:36 a lab. So there's still, even within the intelligence community conflicting opinions about where this came from. And Wuhan being where the first cases were discovered? Exactly. She is such a stooge man! What a stooge for who? Well let us listen. What does it tell you that these agencies don't even agree? Well, there's also disagreement with the medical and public health and scientific community. I think some of this is a result of we focus on different kinds of information so intelligence agents are going to focus on what our emails and telephone calls that they can intercept satellite imagery those kinds of information whereas we as scientists will look at the genomics of the virus how it's mutating at what pace over time can you find a bat

2:49:19 that has a close ancestor of COVID. Can you find direct evidence in the lab that they were tinkering with the genetics of similar viruses? So we just weigh these things slightly differently and have a different perspective as a result. So your question is, who's Stooge for who? Well maybe this clip will answer it. It's the last one you Ha ha ha, refrigerated morgues are parked on the street. You remember that? Oh yeah because... Yeah well and she's laughing about it because she knows It was a scam Finding the origin is to make sure we never have to live in times where refrigerated morgues are parked on the street Well I think it depends! For some people its important to know how it emerged Because they want retribution They want revenge And you know I think it depends on your perspective Accountability Code

2:50:26 Code from Trump, yes. The scientific community public health community we just want to prevent the next big one we're not really focused on the past were more about okay how do we prevent this in the future and I did have a conversation recently with Admiral Brett Gerard around this so as many may remember Gerard was the COVID testing czar under Trump in 2020 and we talked a bit about how do you prevent something like this from happening again? Is wastewater that kind of early warning system that might alert us if there has been a lab leak from one of these BSL-4 labs. Yeah, absolutely wastewater monitoring is an outstanding way to monitor any geography at a given time for the organisms of your choice and so it certainly could be used as an early warning system for a lab leak or natural epidemic

2:51:20 So we want to be preventing, whether it's a lab leak or it's a wet market in Wuhan. We wanna be preventing these things from happening again and what we talked about was could you use wastewater testing for example right outside one of these high tech BSL-4 labs that work with dangerous pathogens? If you have a lab leak, you would see it in the waste water if you have a lab leak outside of a wet market You would see it on the waste water so can we be more targeted than that way Interesting. Yeah, just stick a dipstick in my septic and let me know what's in my wastewater I should mention by the way we had wet markets around here We have them in San Francisco Chinatown yeah And they're all Trump voters now I hear it could be but the wet market I want to explain to people what a wet market is so far as Chinatowns concerned because there's been a big scandal Oh their wet market

2:52:10 They have a wet market and it's like... Ground zero, the next virus coming from San Francisco wet market. What is it? Do you know what I'm gonna explain what a wet market is but do you have any idea what technically a wet market is? Yes that's where you have greasy grimy dead pussy bats that people sell to other people to eat in Chinatown So a wet market in Chinatown, which is quite kind of a funny thing to visit. It's like a store and inside they have tanks and tanks and tanks of live fish, live lobsters, everything wet! They're living beings And so you have this whole place that's just filled with wet... Why it's called a wet market? No one ever explains this. Because of water

2:53:02 because of water, and so you go in there. And the thing that happens when they're getting bent out of shape about this is I remember when I was in college or even high school that this was going on. You go into the wet market in Chinatown and there's a big giant tank full of fish whatever fish it is catfish let's say. And you see a fish and say I want that fish by the way with the equivalent of a similar wet market, only it's not wet of poultry that's run by a Muslim group in Oakland and you do the same thing there. You see the live fish, you point at it and they say okay this is how you get fresh fish. They pull it out of the tank and then club it in front of you as the fish is flopping around they're clubbing it with a big club and the fish sometimes falls on the ground and their clubbing away and its nightmarish

2:54:00 And so that's a wet market. Now, they... and you witness this you get to see these guys clubbing away at the fish. How hungry are you after that for eating this fish? After seeing it loved like a baby seal? This is the damndest thing you've ever seen, by the way. But everyone said oh this is cruelty and so they made a big fuss about it at the wet market and I don't know how many of these are left but in Oakland they've got this Muslim thing that Butler and I both... Oh do you still see Butler? No, no, it just goes back because Butler started using this place almost exclusively for his poultry and depends on the time of year but they have turkeys, ducks, geese, sometimes they have geeses which is really excellent

2:54:46 You go in there, there's all these cages tons of cages all these animals and you point one out And some guy sticks his hand in their grabs by the neck takes it They don't club them in front of ya. They take him into the back chop their head off and dress him and you come out with a perfectly dressed You know goose or duck or chicken I'm still kind of hung up on the clubbing of the fish. Yeah, the clubbing is quite the sight believe me. Can they just chop his head off or shoot him? No! They don't shoot them either now they club em it's a damnedest thing you've ever seen what is the benefit to clubbing does that

2:55:25 Does that I mean stuns them? I don't know. It's cheap low best price. I mean, it's the easiest way to do it No The things I even learn on this show is amazing. I can't wait Hey kids guess where this fish was an hour ago swimming happily in his tank until I had him clubbed nice Yeah. Just one more big farmer thing, did you see this? This was making the rounds I thought it was probably important to play this TikTok video from a singer named Avery Oh yes, poor Avery. Yeah with the pink hair. Do we know Avery? I've never heard of her but she sure is mournful. Hold on let me see Avery... music. She's British i believe No I don't think so Well no she doesn't have a British accent but I think maybe popular Is her name Avery Anna

2:56:19 Let me see. Music... Somebody in the troll room should know No, no one in the troll room knows where Avery... let's see, Avery I can't even find something anyway. Averock whatever So here she is with a very very sad story I just left the doctors office and went to get a checkup because I've been off of Ozempic for two months now and I just wanted to see if My body was in better condition if there were any permanent damages. Kind of in shock right now because I wasn't expecting this, but um...I guess a zempig can cause bone density loss and I didn't think that would happen to me because I was only on it for a year But I have significant bone loss. I have osteoporosis and

2:57:12 Osteopenia, so that I don't know there's like several of them that I have. I wasn't expecting that but that's what happens if you If you use a zempic for weight loss and you lose too much weight Well this is horrible here's it I have a song by Avery let's get to the hook Okay now don't need to hear that That's very sad They don't talk about that That was the only Ozempic information I got this week and it was from Avery. And that was just very sad. I think it's probably been taken down President Trump announced Iron Dome, very excited about that Very excited we're gonna be safe Gonna be very safe from hypersonic missiles Anything that Russia can throw at us Too bad for those Europeans though

2:58:08 They're not, they're not... Mark was out. Mark was out trying to get people to pony up again spreading fear Mr NATO Rutte. Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte warned Russia was trying to destabilize countries in the alliance as he called on members to increase defense spending. Rutte spoke at a joint briefing alongside Portuguese Prime Minister Luis Montenegro and visited Lisbon on Monday We also know that goal of 2% Now, said a decade ago will not be enough to meet the challenges of tomorrow. The threat from Russia may seem distant but

2:58:44 But let me assure you, it is not. Russian ships and long-range bombers... Manus the Portuguese coast. Portugal's vital undersea infrastructure is squarely in Russia's sights During the press conference Rutte also addressed recent cable ruptures in the Baltic Sea saying NATO was operating alongside allies to enable a fast and coordinated response Bombers! The bombers they've got bombers they're getting your cables So very, very scary. It is so scary, so scary, so scary! Do you have any thoughts on the Federal Reserve not cutting rates while the European Central Bank did cut rates by 20 or 25 basis points?

2:59:27 But the market didn't like it, but I have no thoughts on it. It should raise rates the way that the economy is doing so well. Well that's not what the president wants! He's mad! No of course he's not because you jack up everything if you lower the rates. He's mad! Over-heat me out here... No, no, he wants the rates to go down! Yeah I know he does because it makes him look good Oh okay There's that I have the Trump legal update, but that's kind of boring. I do have Robert Menendez was thrown in the slammer. 11 years! That guy was so corrupt... But i do have an idiot on TikTok which is a good one to play. Ah, good, I was looking for way to get out of here. Okay, Idiot on TikTok? TikTok Idiot. Talk Idiot. Think it's really funny that I have to explain

3:00:18 political vendettas and retribution to you because it's all I've been hearing about for the last eight years is how your guy, everyone else has had it out for him. But unlike your guy who thinks that everybody has it out for him He absolutely has it out for other people. We're gonna have to pay double for coffee because he's pissed at the president of Colombia Because he didn't want to take Mexicans that you wanted to deport to Columbia because they were brown your guy Specializes in vendettas so yes Biden Pardoned his loved ones because he doesn't want to see them drug through the mud by a sociopath Dad man, I'm surprised you didn't get the Selena Gomez
