Word Veto

00:00 The whole thing is staged. Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak It's Sunday April 20th of 2025 this year award winning give-all nation media assassination episode 1757 This is no agenda He has risen! And we're broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas hill country here in FEMA region number 6 8 in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from northern Silicon Valley where everybody saying happy Easter I'm John C. Dvorak I almost didn't make it. What? I almost didn't make it through... Jeez! I got COVID, I got COVID! I picked up COVID in Holland. Oh did you pick up something on the way back? Yeah, COVID

00:47 You didn't pick up COVID. Well, everyone says it's COVID there must be COVID I'm probably dying of the COVID you sound terrible yeah thank you There is a cough button you have i think he was doing this for dramatic purposes hello now when i hit the cross but yeah when i get the cough button then make big problem out of it thanks hello hello hello are you there come here Yeah, I think I picked something up at the party What are the chances 200 elites all gathered together one of them's gonna be a seething illness ridden human resource

01:29 So what, so you do have some ailment? I do. Yes. It actually started... Normally you never show it even if your sick as a dog but you do sound a little congested That's the problem. It started Thursday during our last show and i was using the cough button continuously. Oh, seriously let's put that way Not so much because I was coughing It's just the congested... Blowing my nose, man. It's horrible! Anyway I'm so happy that it gives you such joy. It's not funny. It's not funny. I mean, I could have called it... Gallivanting around the world wondering why you're sick? So... I am not wondering why i'm sick but I have a question for you forget about SOA. No, it is 420

02:26 Yeah. A lot going on in this day and the question I have for you is are you now currently at this moment under martial law? Oh that's right today is Martial Law Day Yes, yes I am! I mean it's 1-13 I already forgot about that stupidity No no I hadn't forgotten about it because It was even a like 10 minute topic on The Hill What's the girl's name Crystal Ball Crystal Ball. Crystal Ball, that's her name right? Well no she is not on the Hill, they do an independent podcast now No I thought this was on the hill Well the Hill...no she used to be on the Hill but she is not on the Hill anymore She was beside herself

03:15 And, you know first of all I mean...I gotta play these two clips because she was so- I'm glad you have clips about this because I completely dropped the ball on this. Well you'd think that Easter is the most important thing to think about today or even 420 day or Hitler's birthday but no! I was watching for martial law Because we've been assured today would be martial law And here's the setup. By the way, we've been assured by these various screwballs with no foundation Well she actually lays out now I understand the foundation of this thing then the big chyron said 420 martial law 424 slash 20 martial law! I'm like it's Easter just on its face

04:07 that this president would declare martial law on Easter is highly unlikely. 4-21? Maybe, maybe it'll happen tomorrow but no not on 420 but the reason why is because the resistance is growing. Resistance is swelling, both at the grassroots- I'm sorry it's swelling. Swelling? The resistance is swelling! Resistance is swelling both at the grassroots and institutional level hundreds of thousands of people have turned out to Bernie and AOC fight oligarchy tour including large crowds in red states like Idaho. Millions turn out coast to coast as part of the hands off protests members of Congress

04:47 fifth Van Hollen's genuinely courageous flight to tangle with Bukele in El Salvador. The courts are becoming increasingly assertive and bond traders are apparently the actual deep states now how will Trump respond to this rapid political shift and mounting backlash? It won't be by backing down or changing course it will be by cracking down oh yeah it'll be by cracking down martial law he's gonna put military on the street so that he can ship everybody off they're going to become

05:27 Amazon of shipping human resources out of the country. Some of this project, of course is already well in motion he's used supposed national emergencies and national security threats already to claim extraordinary powers by his terrorist program and by invoking the alien enemies act But there's more. On April 20th, pursuant to an executive order that Trump signed on day one of his presidency he is going to receive a report from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and fascist Barbie Kristi Noem about whether or not... Hey! Fascist Barbie? We pioneered AG Barbie I have to say a fascist Barbie may be better Well if fascist Barbie refers to Kristi Noem, AG Barbie refers to uh.. Oh that's right it's Pam Bondy yes Who do we have as Ken

06:12 Is it VP Ken? Hegseth, it would be Ken. Hegseth and fascist Barbie Kristi Noem about whether or not he should invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 Now such an invocation would open up extraordinary powers for this president to use our military in our streets against our citizens There is! You see This is what this whole thing was about It's about this report that is supposed to be delivered today because reports always come on Easter Sunday Because people love working on the holidays. There's nothing like it and so there's going to be this report from Hegseth Ken, or maybe just call him Ken Hegseth, no Hegseth Ken is better

06:54 And Hegseth Kan is going to say, we're ready Mr. President We're ready to start rousing citizens on the street Of course there are any number of ways in which he might deploy that power Perhaps he'd deploy the military to the border Part of an expanded militarized immigration response Acting head of ICE has mused about ramping up mass deportation on an industrial scale Even fantasizing about fleets of trucks scooping up immigrants The way that Amazon efficiently delivers packages on a mass scale Quote, we need to get better at treating this like a business. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said explaining he wants to see a deportation process like Amazon Prime but with human beings. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Amazon Prime. Trump and the Republicans are pushing for a much larger budget for ICE and private prison contractors to run detention centers but if you really want to go for industrial scale it would be hard to beat the military now even if your hawkish on immigration

07:46 Think of the genuinely evil way this administration has already conducted itself. Do you feel comfortable handing them the tools for a militarized, industrial-scale human removal and incarceration system? Yeah! Do you really think that horror is going to be just reserved for criminals or gang members when we already know that 90% of men they sent into slave labor torture dungeons were innocent like Amazon Prime but for fascism I guess 90%? Yes, 90%. Yeah. So I hope that... You can tell by looking at them! I hope that you can find more of those TikTokers who when they say oh it's coming it wasn't 420 it's gonna be he's gonna be 430 Oh yeah they're gonna move the date

08:29 But this is the insanity that we've come to in our mainstream media messaging system, which it's still live. It is still hobbling along the morning shows this morning, the Sunday morning shows all filled with Easter cheer and filled with Chris Van Hollen who went to El Salvador because he is so brave. He's so brave And he talked to... What was this guy doing not in a jail, by the way? Yeah they went to hotel. They were having mojitos Margaritas The guy was dressed with like with a hat with a backward hat and a Hawaiian shirt and what day what was this This was it so they brought a photographer along So they took some some ops photo ops and it was like ridiculous In fact that

09:24 You know, this is beyond me. Well so he was on every one of the top three shows Face The Nation Meet The Press and This Week and they all had the exact same script exact same questions and the exact same answers So let's listen to CBS basically a three by three of the morning shows it is but I will not appropriate your jingle senator. Thank you so much for joining us this morning You're just back from El Salvador and I want to pick up where we left off with Camilo because the White House is Using these new details to build its case that a Virgo Garcia should stay where he is and not come back to the US your response well, we just good to be with you and

10:11 These cases of course, we just she knew we just we just so we just bored. We just we just sang. Well, we just good to be with you and these his case is of course separate than the case of the Venezuelans that you were talking about earlier. And in a Brego Garcia's case, the Trump administration admitted in federal court that he'd been wrongfully abducted and sent to a prison in El Salvador but rather than fixing the problem as the Supreme Court- Wait, wait. So he's quoting them and somebody came out and said he was wrongfully abducted? I don't think so! No well of course not they said we made a clerical error but he was no good anyway put him on the Amazon Express! ...has said in terms of his need to be that use their efforts

11:04 facilitate his release. They reprimanded the lawyer who made that case, so they need to bring him home now with respect to these other facts I say put up or shut up in court This was his continuous thing. So on all the networks, put up or shut up in court! Here's NBC meet the press... You know while you were in El Salvador The White House was counter-programming effectively releasing information about Counter programming? That's interesting So they're aware of the distraction of the week and how it works counter-programming? The White House was counter programming effectively releasing information about Mr. Obregos Garcia's background including a police report suggesting he is a member of MS 13, details about a restraining order from his wife who ultimately dropped

11:54 the matter and a police report in which an officer said he suspected Mr. Obrego-Garcia may have been involved in human trafficking now he's never been charged with a crime but is his past complicating the broader argument that you are trying to make here about due process? Well, what Donald Trump is trying to do is change the subject. Let's make no bones about that right? This- No bones about it! The Trump administration ignoring a Supreme Court order nine to nothing to facilitate his return because they admitted in court, they are the Trump administration that he'd been wrongfully detained now what I have said is Donald Trump and his administration need to put up or shut

12:35 up in court. There it is, put up or shut up in court can ABC go for the hat trick Jonathan Karl? Are you concerned about your defense of somebody obviously everybody in this country even those undocumented immigrants have rights but are you concerned about standing so forcefully with somebody that has at least a questionable record I am not defending the man I'm defending their rights of this man to due process. And the Trump administration has admitted in court that he was wrongfully

13:14 detained and wrongfully deported. My mission and my purpose is to make sure that we uphold the rule of law because if we take it away from him, we do jeopardize it for everybody else. I want to point out Carl yes the Trump administration is trying to change the story they're trying to detract attention here's where they should put their facts let me get it before the court they should put up or shut up in court. I mean come on does nobody have an exclusive anymore these days? It's all the same. This guy who sounds like a nervous wreck, he sounds like you know...a character actually shaking voice and all you know? He's doing this as a stunt to run for president! This guy is running for president?! Yeah Oh boy

14:01 Yeah, well you pretty much summarized it right there. Let's do a triple shot here of Margarita Gate So did you walk into a trap though? I mean they bring him to your hotel using civilian clothes and you met with him, we saw the images of meeting with him at the beginning of the meeting. You're sitting there drinking water and talking to a guy in the hotel lobby I assume. Water? And then they bring in these like You know, glasses that look like margarita glasses? Oh oh oh! What Mar- what margarita glasses?! It wasn't a trap. My goal was to meet with him How come he wasn't in the... I don't understand Why wasn't he not in the El Salvadorian jail with his head shaved? Bald This is this is the part I don't understand

14:56 The whole thing is staged. Yeah, and make sure I could tell his wife and family he was okay that was my goal and I achieved that goal you're absolutely right that the Salvadorian- No hold stop! That wasn't his goal. No, his goal was what? To run for president? His goal he said at the beginning of this whole trek that he was going to go there and get him and bring him back! Oh yeah that was the goal yes but it seems like they could have just hopped onto the jet and taken off I don't think it was an issue if the guy was not detained He was just hanging out in the hotel lobby. I achieved that goal, you're absolutely right that the Salvadorian authorities tried to deceive people they tried to make it look like he was in paradise They actually wanted to have the meeting by the hotel pool originally

15:46 I wonder who really wanted to have a meeting, but the producers probably like hey this is much better shot over here by the pool we can all be outside. Really? Absolutely absolutely we had to negotiate that they wanted to put me right overlooking the pool in fact if you had a different angle on the camera shot you would see the pool because then- Because they did write that the book Bukele put out a statement saying miraculously risen from the death camps and torture and sipping margaritas with you. Yeah. They were really trying to make you look like Hanging out with somebody that they say is a clown, is it gang member? Oh no. Let's see what CBS Ouija I want to show our viewers some pictures that the president Do you believe that this was the number one topic on all three Sunday news shows

16:32 This is what blows me away. There's a lot going on we are under martial law people of El Salvador Bookele posted showing you and a Brigo Garcia sitting around what appears to be Margaritas, you have blamed him for trying to deceive people with props after he posted those images He also posted quote I love chess Do you have any concerns that the Salvadoran government used you as a pawn to make their point that Obrego Garcia is doing well and that he should stay where he is? I see what she did there. She said chess, pawn okay No in fact El Salvadorian government tried really hard not to let me see him but I think they realized that was not a good look at the end of the day

17:26 I've had press conferences in El Salvador with local press and made the point that El Salvador was Wait a minute, how can there be local press under that dictatorship of Buhari? This doesn't make any sense. Violating international law by not allowing anyone to reach him Not his wife, not his lawyers Nobody they realized that was a bad look so I'm glad. I've met him that was the purpose of my visit yeah, but the glass They realize that was a bad look So I'm glad I met him and that was the purpose of my this

18:09 They go to great lengths to deceive people. And that's what you saw because they- Those evil Bitcoin people in El Salvador got these government guys essentially told the waiters to bring these drinks that appear to look like margaritas, uh, to the table No one touched them I can go into the details about how their whole scheme was set up But reality is if you look at the photos When I first sat down and the ones at the end, you can see that was all staged. They're trying to create the impression that this is a guy in paradise when in fact he's been in one of the most notorious prisons in the world. But his head wasn't shaven so he was not in that prison. Here's the last one Kristen Welk NBC. Absolutely not they had no intention of letting me meet with Abrego Garcia

18:58 until they felt the pressure. They felt the pressure from people saying, why are you complicit in this illegal scheme? Why are you denying his wife or lawyer or anybody the opportunity to speak with him? So my mission was to be able alive. The El Salvadorian President, Bukele and Donald Trump will go to deceive people are boundless right? In this case they did order the waiters that government people to bring these two glasses that appear to be margaritas. I have no idea we didn't touch them and they tried to manipulate it so make it look like Mr Obregos Garcia's Margarita had been drunk in other words the liquid was lower but

19:57 Hey John, if you and I were gonna try and make this look like paradise but i think we would have chosen some different tactics. Like I'd have girls in bikinis walking around you know yeah party lights party people DJ thumping in the background exactly no those stupid El Salvadorians we're going to put liquid in the glass Don't even know if it's salt or sugar and we're gonna make one a little lower so everyone don't think that he's been drinking it. Food up in their scheme because, if you look at the rims of the glasses I don't know with salt or sugar but there is no gap What? Who puts sugar on their margarita Is that thing even There are drinks...there are other drinks This marga...the whole thing is a joke Yeah

20:51 Okay, nine seconds now. So nobody touched the margaritas... Stop! The fact is that you're right these morning shows that this is their story where we have a borderline bombing of Iran we have the crisis where Netanyahu's getting shut down We have all kinds of issues. We had the big protests over the weekend and we have all these things going on And this publicity stunt, because this guy's running for president or he thinks he is. He doesn't have a prayer because he's a moron... Is the top of the news? Because obviously somebody is coordinating this and it's not any of the news directors It's Chuck Schumer again!

21:36 Who? I don't know. The whole thing is stupid... You know what, that's you- you know first thing I thought was maybe the CIA or somebody but once you mentioned Chuck Schumer you're probably right because it's so lame! Yeah that has to be a Schumerism A Schumer scheme It has to be it's so dumb and then they all do this They all do cares I mean we do of course Because just so stupid I'm gonna be talking to a high school in a couple of weeks and they want me to come in and talk about propaganda. Well, man... Wait wait stop stop stop! Yes? What?! Yeah this uh the guy down the street he teaches a class in media communications it's an advanced placement class to I guess 10th 11th graders

22:28 And he wanted me to come in and talk about propaganda. I said, are you sure they're going to be able to handle it? Because they're going to see stuff they've never seen before because that's... They just never watch that stuff! You have to show this dumb stuff and then the senators all saying the same thing as super basically I'm gonna come in play a bunch of Supercuts say I'm the Podfather, drop my mic and I'm out. That's what is gonna be. Yeah, and yell go podcasting. Go podcasting He said, the kids are really excited. These kids don't know who I am! Well they know what podcast is... Who's this old fart coming in here? No no he's not an old fart no he's a young guy.

23:10 Thank you. Who's this boomer you brought in, Teach? Teach! Teach! Who has ever used that term in the last 50 years? Only a boomer! Teach! Oh man... Alright so there is some very interesting news and I'm gonna play it in... Wait before you go on with these clips Anything interesting happen on the way back from Amsterdam? You usually have a story about going through customs or some foul up, or a last ditch thing that you saw when you left and didn't realize this was that bad over there. How's your daughter doing?" Okay well thank-you for asking my daughter is doing very well and so I told her I'm gonna see on Friday let's go to a nice restaurant

24:10 And which turned out to be Japanese Fusion, who had seven courses. It took four hours for them to serve this thing that was a little long but before that she arranged for us to do have a VR experience and it's a franchise called Zero Latency and imagine the Quonset Hut in the middle of South Rotterdam And so they've got a big room and you have walls. Quonset hut? It was a quonset hut, but at pretty high ceiling. Quonset Hut! It was a quanset hut I'm telling ya it's open on one side. And this really big room and it has kind of black floor and walls

25:01 with some stripes on it. And so you play as a team, the three of us, but you can do up to eight players. You get your VR goggles and you get your weapon... Who's the third? Oh her fiance Kevin. Okay. We like Kevin. Then you go in and then it takes a second to sync up and we did these zombie apocalypse VR experience So you're, you know... You see each other and then you all look of course. You have an avatar It's very photorealistic kind of like it has very much like a Doom feeling to it only higher resolution If you remember the game Doom another boomer reference everybody! It was incredibly realistic

25:47 Is it more like Doom or more like Duke Nukem? Oh, much more like Duke Nukem. I mean it was an advance but the you know It's basically first is the first person shooter except you got your team You can switch guns. You know, you see a gun you walk over toward it. You grab the gun You got a plasma gun and you can switch between no grenades And you get a gatling gun. Is there anything you could do you're doing in the Quonset hut that you can't do at home? I got to tell you, well it's big. You need the space because you're walking around... You're actually walking around? Oh yeah! The thing that is kind of weird is you want to walk up to the elevator and has a ramp and if course if you try to walk on your step on the ramp you are going to fall in your face so you learn pretty quickly. So you just walk and then the ramp adjusts to you but only took 3 minutes to get used

26:44 It was incredibly real. So real that, you know the zombies are coming at ya and then you hear in the headphones there's one gnawing behind you turn around You blast him with a grenade And I actually got a physical response to this! Yeah, I was tired after 30 minutes That was a tough day of fighting zombies! And I thought this will never fly for anything but this... You can't live in this world it is very disassociative Wait, wait. You said it won't fly for anything but this? Yeah, but games. Zombie fighting? Games, yeah. It won't work for touring Paris or... No! No no no no. Won't know. Of course not

27:32 No, you can't go on a cruise down the canals in Venice. Yeah but you won't get the wind in your face. You know zombies is already kind of a surreal experience. You don't need to have anything else so okay So what your predicting it's a dead end? It's a dead end this is fun I mean it's great for a fun dead-end show title Fun Dead End yeah that's basically what that is but to say that this would be like the metaverse is gonna be cool. No, no you can't do more than a half hour of this stuff and then it's just like ah... And then the thing is heavy on your head but more importantly

28:14 I got a lot of emails from people about my report from the last show when i was in Amsterdam. Yeah? And it's interesting, I think I was pretty clear telling everybody that I was amongst the media elites and that Taxi Eric you know he's the guy that is saying no we think Trump should have a statue because I got a lot of similar emails saying You need to get out of Amsterdam. It's not like that everywhere We're all we're all against this the global leads we love Trump I thought it was pretty clear what you said but with a bunch of elitists were completely off the rails and taxi Eric was a yeah, kind of foundational and then Couldn't connect it to reality in some funny way even though he almost got me killed Yeah well then you know that was anyway

29:10 So, but what I get from everybody is the same thing. The people who listen to No Agenda and I'm sure that you know there's other people who don't listen to no agenda other groups who are all in but everybody is just talking amongst themselves. No one's doing anything not dissimilar to the United States until Trump stood up and said hey this nonsense is over so everybody thinks it's crazy it's no good But meanwhile, even this new government and the new cabinet just steamrolls over everybody. They get the same old same old... So there's two emails I pulled out that i want to share First one is from Nathan he says Adam as you know Amsterdam has extremely left everyone is scared and angry in my class this prevails as well I'm in the second of the Cygnus gymnasium so he's probably about 17

30:01 When I ask why they are angry, they say Trump! Musk! But they don't really know. They're afraid of Trump becoming a dictator. Usually their reason is that he is shutting down all the institutions and putting pressure on the legal system. Real facts or examples? Well, they never have those. The most left voters also think a European army is a good idea. How it is regulated with taxation via your carbon footprint is perfect These people these people have to change themselves now They only vote for the left with this they think that their sins on climate will be redeemed Even people closer to me find it hard to keep thinking for themselves family who my father and I try to explain as much is

30:42 We can also panic, of course because they can only see the M5M. I find it increasingly difficult to restrain myself and seeing people I love get so worked up and frightened everything they try seems to succeed that would be them crazy people as we as awakened people have to try and help in some way well Of course this is exactly the problem like no one is really helping but the one that really got me Because this is universal and I've adjusted my cultural trauma. It's just like COVID. Europe never got out of COVID, and to some degree neither did the United States People who are still mad about things who hate Musk, hate Trump They're the same people you know it's the same argument Vax no vax lockdown no lock down social distancing no social distance mask no masks

31:37 It's the same, people never got out of it. So it's just a replacement. There was tons of masked people everywhere! This came from Beth and she is an expat in the UK And what's interesting here this is the degree to which she has been assimilated into this system She says, I'm a dual US UK citizen been in the UK for 15 years my husband and British. Honestly, I love the UK It's definitely my home and in spite of the growing dystopia My situation is comfortable and good here's my report now remember she likes it there her situation is Comfortable and good so she goes on

32:25 I saw the writing on the wall years ago and left social media entirely just to be safe. I'm a major TERF, and I knew my views would get me in trouble if it did- if I didn't! I have a skilled but blue collar job and basically everyone on the factory floor would agree with the no agenda perspective A few are fans of Trump others conservative but hate his style! I voted for- Okay let's stop we want to make sure that everyone out there knows what turf... We haven't used that term for awhile trans-exclusionary radical feminist. Yeah, no trans women yes no trans I think everyone knows what turf is but okay that's good. I voted for Bobby the op because i'm a coward and this way when I was someone with TDS you could also say your libertarian I'm a coward this way when I'm with someone with TDS I can say things like well I never voted for him but surely such and such policy might actually turn out to be good

33:22 Remember, she's comfortable and loves her life. Management is another story My boss thought Trump created NAFTA And he's a big racist of course! I get a lot of comments from educated people who assume that I also have Trump derangement syndrome which i do not Another thing I've heard multiple British people say Is that they thought we were supposed to help others But Trump only cares about himself and how they had to explain this to their children I live in Oxfordshire and work at an affluent village but live in a very average town. Nobody has stopped driving their Teslas Our friend group, bless them are quite intelligent people who haven't got a clue about US politics One friend is still obsessed with Trump being a Russian asset and mentions it a lot Another friend thought that abolishing the Department of Education meant no more public schools in the whole country

34:13 They seem to get most of their ideas about America from Reddit. Of course they still believe in safe and effective as for free speech arrests, they're both ignorant and dismissive it's not happening! And even if it was then people must have deserved it seems to be the opinion pretty grim The elder generation is split. My husband's aunt, who was a lovely woman is terrified by what she views as rejection of the mechanisms which brought peace to post-war Europe Trump mates are sick to her stomach! My lovely work mom in the second half of her 70s also hates Trump, but is disgusted by the way the country is going. Namely she doesn't feel safe in Reddingtown anymore due to dodgy Turkish barbers popping up everywhere and loads of men just hanging around Her daughter lives in Dover She tells me all the time how many boats have illegal migrants come in every week We all know we aren't allowed to talk about this stuff

35:08 My own town is very average. On Saturday you'll see families and people of all walks of life in the open-air shopping center area, but recently I was in town on a Friday afternoon it was a different vibe loads of men just hanging around my hairdresser told me about men harassing her young apprentices 16 years old I hate this vibe thanks for a great show says Beth who I will remind you start off by saying I love the UK! My life is comfortable and good Beth you need to reassess your life This is not comfortable and good. This is the lobster getting boiled in the pot that's exactly right yes, this is the slow where you put it in then you turn the heat up and

35:51 And I realize, you know just look at all this nonsense of people arguing and you sent me a video this morning of Liberty Lockdown podcast. Of people arguing about Douglas Murray and Dave Smith and Joe Rogan and Ian... What's his name? Ian... I don't even know half these people! And I'm like, I am so happy that we do the Noah Jenner Show under the constraints we have self-imposed on ourselves as it comes to expansion, growth and finances. Because we are the only ones who just have... there's no reason for us to say anything but exactly what we feel!

35:08 My own town is very average.

Because we are the only ones who just have... there's no reason for us to say anything but exactly what we feel!

36:38 I think everyone else is audience captured. I think there's a huge fear of being de-platformed by the group, not by government. The group! Whatever this group is... By the group yes! We've talked about this before that's why put the word internecine in there Yes, I even put that in the show notes so people can let me see I wrote it down here internecine relating to or involving conflict within a group. Oh, it comes from fought to the death! Anyway... There is a real problem going on everywhere and the United States is not immune to it

37:29 And I really truly think that this is still COVID trauma, that people just want to fight with each other about something. Because we're still all mad, we're all still... you and I aren't but we're mad, were hurt, were angry, we feel discriminated, it doesn't matter what side your on! President Trump just triggers it all time and time again he's very good at it And I think that he probably egged on this whole 420 martial law thing just to get people crazy. He still seems to kind of be doing that stuff. You know, there is a phenomena we had that actually broke- This just came to mind Bill Ziff one of the first and early billionaires I ever knew ran to Davis How many do you know these days? how many do you hang out with

38:22 I don't hang out with any, well I hang out with one. But it's beside the point. Okay. But Ziff, I used to hang out with Ziff a little bit but the thing about him is that he was always saying one thing and doing another in certain kinds of funny ways and somebody who really knew him well and worked for him forever during their early days of his publishing empire He says that Ziff had this sick way of matching people up and putting people together that he knew would cause a conflict, and he believed that Ziff thought it was fun. It was like

39:00 just mused himself, like the king is let's put these two people together and see what happens. And it was I think from this extreme amount of wealth he had he was one of the richest men in the world at that time and you got developed a screwball way of looking at things and then screwball way of acting it worked out except for the people that were placed in these situations where they'd always get in trouble And maybe Trump has got, it's maybe something to do with the wealth. He's really the only true billionaire thing? I'm beginning to think it might be something because Trump is the only billion true billionaire. Vanderbilt was never president of the United States and other super rich people never got that far cause they never bothered but... Too much work! I can make a mess back here by signing checks

39:56 But this idea of, you know... just doing little things and moving things around like a chess game. And seeing what happens. Just see what happens. Let's see what happens if these two people don't get along? I wonder if Joe works for Jim, that would be really funny! Oh wait, what about if Jim worked for Joe?! That'd even funnier! There is no movement around! I just get the sense that something like that might be going on by basis of what you said which might be true Trump is triggering this and he's doing it in some subconscious way on purpose. Well, let's look at this at the next Item here on the agenda which is clearly a an art of the deal move but we have to go back

40:38 to three days ago when it looked like, it looked like we had something on the table. We had papers! We were signing!" After months of delays a minerals deal is closer than ever On Thursday Ukraine said talks with the US delivered good results Just hours later the two sides signed a so-called memorandum of intent I love this A memorandum of intent is...I would say completely worthless Yeah, I agree. A memorandum of intent is the way to kind of put the negotiations on hold because you're going nowhere! I'm gonna write a memo that we intend to...I don't know...continue. Continue yes. For the final agreements the deal would give the US access

41:24 Ukraine's mineral wealth in return for billions in military aid. Ukraine, for its part wants strong security guarantees." So it sounds like they came up with exactly the same deal? Yeah, we'll protect our interests with some military stuff and then Ukraine is yammering again. But the process has been shaky a February signing fell through under chaotic circumstances. Since then Ukraine said that the terms have constantly changed media reports said the US now has changed repayment demands from 300 to 100 billion dollars. Hey listen Volodymyr! Listen listen listen

42:05 We're gonna give you 60% discount. Alright, discount! We go from 300 billion to 100 billion. What are you yammering about man? Meanwhile the Trump administration continued to face accusations of echoing Putin creating unease among Ukraine officials just days ago the US envoy Steve Whitkoff conveyed Moscow's proposal for a peace in exchange for five Ukrainian regions I believe that Mr. Witkow has taken on the strategy of the Russian side, and I think it is very dangerous." Ukraine said it will not discuss territorial agreements before a ceasefire —a choice they want under U.S. security guarantees—but

42:49 So far it's not clear how the minerals deal would ensure Ukraine security. So I think they just redlined the original agreement and scratched out 300 said 100 billion, okay that's our final final offer and before we get to the next round We have a little rest, a little pause It is Easter after all he has risen Tonight in a surprise announcement Vladimir Putin says he's ordering a 30-hour Easter truce in the war in Ukraine The brief ceasefire coming one day after President Trump warned the US will walk away from stalled peace negotiations if there isn't progress soon. We're gonna just take a pass, but hopefully we won't have to do that. President Zelensky tonight saying there's no trust in words coming from Moscow But the Ukraine is open to us proposals for 30-day ceasefire

43:40 Another ceasefire. So he's rolling everything back, going back to a 30-day ceasefire and then of course we get the report that everybody has been talking about is where we're really at I think we're at the end of our rope people He's been pressing both Moscow and Kiev for a truce but so far Donald Trump has failed in his bid to secure a ceasefire in the Ukraine war On Friday the US president reiterated that he wanted to clinch a deal quickly but said that the U.S could ditch brokering further talks unless progress is made soon Very difficult and we're just gonna say you're foolish. You're fools you horrible people, and we're gonna Just take a pass but hopefully We won't have to do that I'd like this take a pass That's how you talk about it. Yeah, what? Brought dad I'm glad you got the take a pass thing he keeps saying yeah play this clip This is Ukraine Trump and Rubio on this is from PBS And I think they're trying to give us a different perspective than

44:50 reality here. Rubio, on his way out said the US may quote move on from trying to broker a peace deal if progress isn't made soon. We're not going to continue with this endeavor for weeks and months on end so we need to determine very quickly now and I'm talking about in matter of days whether or not this is doable over the next few weeks if it is were in if its hot

45:35 Then we have other priorities to focus on as well. In Washington, President Trump echoed that warning but stopped short of saying he's ready to walk away. He pushed back against the suggestion that Russia is taking advantage of his patience. I know when people are playing us and I know when they're not and I have to see an enthusiasm to want to end it. And I think I see that enthusiasm. I think I see it from both sides But you're gonna know soon. Do you think Russia's playing me? No, nobody is playing me I'm trying to help All of this unfolded as the war grinds on Russian missiles today rained down on Ukrainian city of Kharkiv Officials say one person was killed and nearly 100 others were wounded Alright what's your take

46:25 Well, they make it sound as though Rubio and Trump are differing opinions of things and it's a conflict. Oh really? I didn't get that at all! listening to a lot of these NPR, PBS things and they've been trying to promote that idea. And I think it was kind of promoted in there but I don't see it because Trump's saying you know we're gonna...we're out of here sounds pretty much what Rubio says. I have my favorite Canadian Andrew Rasoulis with his analysis and well played him before Andrew Rasoulis he's a former war guy

47:06 In Canada now he's a consultant. He is a war guy, he knows war You like him when you hear him you'll remember What do you make of the news that the US may walk away from peace talks if it is not possible to imminently or quickly end the war in Ukraine? It's very important development but we have to put it into context what happened Thursday Rubio on his way out to the airport said after having that meeting in Paris, which included the Americans. The Europeans and the Ukrainians and he said if we're not gonna get a deal soon we're walking away so why did he say that? Well at that meeting of Vitkov was on the American delegation has and then Trump's point person on this basically went to Russia or talked to Ukrainians talk to European

47:55 and put together what he believes is the best possible deal for a ceasefire, comprehensive ceasefire. And it includes the following 1. The Russians keep all the territory they currently hold militarily 2. The Ukrainians do not get NATO 3. There are sanctions relief put in place for Russia but Ukraine remains sovereign So there was a lot of pushback From the Ukrainians and the Europeans to this plan saying that it caters too much to the Russians. The American position is, it reflects battlefield reality and thats where we're at Yeah they don't want that! They...the Europeans want war They dont wanna stop their all in on this! The way I see it And the Canadians and the Australians

48:42 So, what happens if the US walks? Donald Trump said that ending this war would be the feather in his cap when it comes to foreign policy. Did he actually say that? Hey! This will be the feather in my cap I don't think so A feat that he wanted to accomplish If he is out and his negotiations No, he promised he would end within 24 hours That's what he actually said But he was being Ironic. Day one, yeah day one. What does this mean? Let me just say there's a meeting in London next week with the same people same parties we will see what happens there it's the last ditch and April 30th is 100 days anniversary of the America of Trumps presidency We still have that time i believe to secure a deal but having said that assuming there's no deal To answer your question It would certainly favor The Russians

49:34 The Ukrainians would have to rely solely on the Europeans and Canada, to what degree in Australia. But basically they could not get the Patriot missile systems They could not get the intelligence required Russia would increase the momentum it has already on that battlefield which is just to their advantage They would increase it even furthermore And basically the Ukrainians will be left with the Europeans and Canadians To sort it out themselves Not a very good position! And then of course Can the EU, can Europe and Canada and Australia fill the gap left by those turncoat Americans? Is this enough Canadians, Europeans some other international allies. Can they fill that void if the US steps away in terms of that

50:19 key military support? No, they cannot. They can sustain the Ukrainians in a defensive mode for awhile while the Ukrainians try to wear down the Russians and secure a better deal than they're getting now that is not highly likely outcome because also we I repeat the Americans have the Patriot missile systems nobody else has them and Ukraine's need them for air defense and two It's the intelligence Americans provide Ukrainians with targeting information that only the Americans can provide So finally then what is really what was really needed has already happened. The the global stage has already changed and

51:00 seemingly irreversibly and back to the old ways of the old days, of the boomer days. What is the biggest geopolitical concern about Russia and some of its allies like China like North Korea now that US has assumed this position? Oh we're very clearly beyond the liberal rules-based order of 1991 or 1945 pick your year! We are back to a much more traditional Realpolitik, power politics international system in which the great powers compete against each other sometimes politically economically and militarily when things come to that point. It's all the question of equilibrium and balance of power And basically the big boys set the stage and the smaller weaker powers have to adjust for that reality That I'm afraid is the new reality we're going into.

51:50 I think that's what I have a different take on this. What could possibly happen if they don't go along with Trump? Okay, which they should and get this over with but they just seem reluctant like you say is the Europeans can do more than Just be defensive they can put their boots on the ground in Ukraine. They want to form an army anyway, let's put some German and French... The French have been promising troops with Macron you know and his wife. Put the French troops in there and then the Germans can put their troops in there everyone can just load up

52:34 And so the Ukrainians can have some backup and then they could drag this thing. How do you think that's going to work out when, when you get dead German French and British kids coming home in body bags? How is that gonna work out in Europe? That's gonna be... It's gonna make it, they're going to twist it in such a way that look at what these Russians have been doing to our kids! They're gonna do what they always do. They make it look like oh this is terrible we got now we need revenge for the dead kids It's doable. They want to do it! Is that a better outcome? No, it's not a better outcome. It's going to be a disaster but that is what they want to do and there's nothing to stop them. That's what I said they want war this we're saying the same thing as the premise and just saying here's how its gonna happen Oh I sure hope not Well if they don't go along with Trump it's good that's exactly where it's headed There's no other way

53:32 Well, maybe. Because if you're telling me you know you're over there or were and everyone's thinking the Russians are going to march in and take over all of Europe any minute now we gotta stop them somewhere We gotta go to Ukraine to do it. So let's send our boys there People are putting Go bags together man with band-aids Yes! Go bags That'll do the trick And longwave radio receivers so they can get the BBC World Service It's it's pathetic that it's so crazy that people can't see what is going on how stupid this whole thing Is and they've bought it hook line and sinker They really have in the in general the majority not to know agenda people. They're saying they go on This is bullcrap, but meanwhile suit up No

54:27 Yeah, I really felt very poorly most of the time in Europe. Just... I can feel it. You felt poorly? I felt poorly! People you can tell that people again whenever I... To top it off they gave you a cold! Covid! They gave me covid man! It's just like don't you see that you've got to stop this nonsense And they're still pushing climate change and the digital ID, and more taxes. Federal tax... Carbon taxes, let's don't ever leave that out of the picture. Climate change taxes. It just more and more and more and more. In fact what was I reading? This was a good one. Where did this come from some university? That man's best friend may be nature's worst enemy

55:18 study on pet dog fines. So dogs apparently are the worst thing for climate. Oh yes, this has been going... This has been for a few weeks now this anti-dog thing which I think is actually Muslim based? No, I think it's tax based because people are sending me these articles. You mean they're gonna tax dogs?! Yes! you have to pay a dog tax of course that's perfect they're not gonna come and kill Fido They're gonna send you a bill how many dogs there are That's a bonanza. And people will do anything for their animals, not for their kids! Suit them up and ship them off to Ukraine. But don't touch my dog I'll pay the fine. Yeah? Dog waste contributes to pollution in waterways inhibits plant growth. Okay... No, I think that dog thing is a carbon tax gambit which makes sense to me. It could be yeah i think so

56:16 So anyway, yes I felt just very poorly because I know that people aren't stupid but they're all going along to get along. But you know...I don't want to be unpopular You know they're changing the name of the school Michiel de Ruyter Now, you don't know Michiel Dreiter but he traveled the world when he was 12 years old. And then when the British army, the armada, the British Navy... His famous Dutch kid. Famous Dutch kid and then when the British Navy was sailing over to Holland to basically capture the whole country He really started up the Dutch Navy The Marines went out there they sailed out and they kicked the British back

56:57 Well, now that school has to change its name to be more inclusive. Because you know it's not...it doesn't represent our society anymore It had that name for a hundred years so we've seen this template they just found the different George Floyd moment And so they want to change the name of the school and you know, they go out there interview the parents. Oh yes I think we should change the name of this school because it really needs to be more inclusive it's not of this time anymore It's an old name is not good! And then the interviewer says So what did Michiel Dreyfus do? You should ask someone who knows more about history...I don't really know They're afraid They're afraid of being ostracized That's certainly the Dutch way but I think it's also a bit of the European way

57:46 No, we didn't know. We're having this nishkavous. We didn't know." They need to do something but they need somebody. Well they needed Donald Trump that ultimately that's why they hate him because they want him. They want someone like that to stand up and say no! To be just that guy. That's the only thing I can make of it I think you're probably right. Yeah, and I'm sad. I'm sad for Europe. I told him so you better put a ring on it man She's gonna come over here. You're gonna be get left behind Yes, I'm sorry couple of Trump clips This is what's going on over here when it comes to Trump this is the Trump loyalist clip this is uh

58:35 the latest of the complaining going on in PBS. President Trump today advanced his plans to make it easier to fire tens of thousands of federal workers On social media, he said he would move forward with a rule previously known as Schedule F which the administration said quote will allow agencies to quickly remove employees from critical positions and who engage in misconduct, perform poorly or undermine the democratic process by intentionally subverting presidential directives. Our White House correspondent Laura Barone Lopez joins us now. President Trump promised that he would do this, so what does this do and how many workers would this affect? So Schedule F changes the job classification of nonpartisan federal workers designating them as political appointees and so bottom line it makes it easier for the president to fire anyone that he considers disloyal and replace them with complete loyalists to his cause into his agenda. Now was a part

59:37 of the Project 2025 blueprint from the Heritage Foundation. And OMB Director Russ Vogt was key in drafting this during the first administration, but they were not able to implement it during the first administration. I love the term blueprint. This is good. Yeah, I read the document. It was a Chad GPT embellished piece of crap Way too long single-spaced unnecessary long bios of everybody was very egotistical It had some things in there like get rid of Department of Education. I think you could find that in other documents But it was far from a blueprint Yeah, blue prints actually the simplistic yeah, yeah Just nuts and bolts his bull goes here

1:00:24 Yeah, we're coming back to this thesis. I mean they have these memes they like to throw at Trump and loyalists. In other words you got people working against you and your project you want to get rid of them. Yeah I don't see why, how is that different than any other president or any other person running a company or running a government agency or being the president or anything else? You don't want people working against you! No So why wouldn't you want to get rid of him? Oh because they're bringing in loyalists okay well... Because they're triggering

1:01:06 They're triggering internal conflicts of their listeners. Like, oh well imagine if just someone could come and just fire me for not doing my job? I'm telling you this is all socialist nonsense. Schedule F! That was a masterstroke didn't he implement that in his first administration? Well he tried. No but i thought the law got passed or something was put through kind of like as There's something that never really got turned back. No one changed it, it was just sitting there ready to be implemented Well, I think that's what they're up to and it got all these people in a tizzy so here is the second part of this And RestVote said throughout the campaign that they wanted to traumatize federal workers and The White House estimates that this will impact some 50 thousand federal workers That could be laid off but government experts say that that's probably a minimum

1:01:59 So, what happens next? And has there been I imagine pushback to this. There has been push back but so first what happens is a White House official said that agencies have until April 20th to hand them the list of who they think should be reclassified in their agency. But Everett Kelly the president of the American Federation of Government Employees said that this is another in a series of deliberate moves by this administration to corrupt the federal government and replace qualified public servants with political cronies. The FG says they are going to split the administration, and they're the largest union representing federal workers. So this is part of a much bigger picture of Trump's war with the federal government? That it is- Now we have a war with the federal government! Everything is a war. Everything is a war. Blueprint, playbook, war...

1:02:48 That is, it is. And so this all comes as President Trump and Elon Musk's team have instituted firings across the board yesterday the Trump administration moved to fire some 1500 employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that's most of the agency William and today a federal judge paused those firing calling it deeply concerning than that the firing violated in earlier injunction now when you based on our reporting as well as New York Times analysis when you zoom out Essentially, there are more than 132,000 workers that have either been fired or pressured to take buyouts. Since Trump has taken office we spoke to Don Moynihan a public policy professor at University of Michigan who said this essentially defeats the purpose this schedule F of nonpartisan civil service he said that in the end goal this is about imposing loyalty tests

1:03:39 And that targeting bureaucracy in this way is a hallmark trait of authoritarian regimes. Practically, it could also mean that there's some favoritism that is instituted when it comes to who gets government contracts. Oh! There it is. It's about the government contracts and that's where Elon comes back into play Yeah, it's about the government contracts. It's about the money. It's about the free money That's really what it's about. It's not about partisanship or I mean the idea, oh it's a hallmark of authoritarian governments. This is the way Chicago has been run forever. Is that ever? Yeah That's the way it goes everything's partisan. Well on that here's a clip about Elon and government contracts SpaceX is fronting a bid to build President Trump's proposed Golden Dome missile defense system A satellite-based shield designed to detect and stop long range attacks

1:04:35 The company is working with Palantir and drone maker Anduril on a concept that would launch hundreds of satellites into low Earth orbit to track threats in real time. Another fleet, about 200 satellites would carry strike capabilities like missiles or directed energy weapons You don't hear that very often these days. Directed energy weapons! Your favorite How you laughed at me about my directed energy weapons I still laugh SpaceX is leading the custody layer, satellites that track incoming threats in real time Early design costs are estimated at six to ten billion dollars Billions Instead of the government owning this system, SpaceX is pitching a subscription model I love this

1:05:21 Yeah, President Trump you're behind on your monthly payment. Do you need a payment plan? Because we have to turn you off You know you opted for the subscription service The Pentagon would pay for access similar to a service an approach that could speed up development But raises questions about long-term... Wait wait hold on stop it I don't know how that could speed up development Defense as a service, you know we have software as a service. DAS! DAS! DAS! Yes! The DAS Software As A Service give me a break I think it's great defense as a service yes John and i are consultants in the DAS

1:06:02 In the DOS space, space. Space! Space in the DOS space And we can recommend the right things for you You need a subscription to this, you need a subscription to Palantir Now Palantir has many sub-subscriptions It's all part of DOS I mean if you want the drones On demand drones on demand Just whenever you want them You just insert a quarter and the drone fly Drones on demand. That could speed up development but raises questions about long-term control and oversight over 180 companies have shown interest including Lockheed, Boeing and Northrop but SpaceX's existing satellite network and launch capability may give it a head start yeah no kidding

1:06:49 I love the whole idea. And we can also, you know... Other countries? You want a subscription to our service? Yeah! That's great! You pay monthly. It is exactly the same as the law. Yeah, you pay monthly and of course, you know, I'm sorry no war from midnight till 3pm, we're doing upgrades. The system will be down. 404, hello Paige sorry we're under maintenance right now no can't do it. Yeah that's great this is great I'm very excited about these things okay firings now this is interesting because at no point did the president actually say he wanted to or you would fire a

1:07:34 Is the president, Jerome Powell is the president of the Federal Reserve? Head. Is that... head? I'm ahead of the Federal Reserve The Fed head! He's too late and always wrong That's how President Trump characterized the head of US Federal Reserve Jerome Powell The U.S president, unhappy with Powell threatened to fire him If i want him out he'll be out there real fast believe me No no he did not say he was gonna fire him he said he'll be out of their real fast Everyone is saying that he threatened to fire but he didn't say that I don't think he has to say that, but that's how it's been taken. Trump criticized the Fed's chair for not cutting the US interest rate which is at more than 4%, unlike the European Central Bank which cut theirs. We have a Federal Reserve Chairman who is playing politics

1:08:29 On Wednesday, Jerome Powell suggested that it was Trump's tariffs which were causing economic uncertainty and preventing the Federal Reserve from lowering President Donald Trump put an early end to Powell's mandate like he says he can. Many legal experts believe this would be difficult, the institution is supposed to be independent of the US administration but because a court hasn't ruled on the matter before no one can say for certain what would happen and president trump has been defying many political norms since returning to office in January as for Powell He said he would complete his term until 2026 I'm not resigned if asked to do so by the president

1:09:35 Yeah, but we need to get those interest rates down for the refi in 2025. So I you know But the Federal Reserve is you know this is the big joke This federal reserve has never been they've always been off their timing has sucked It's never been right no, but I don't think changing it out is gonna make any difference not gonna change anything else You know we did we need the Mar-a-Lago Accords? This is what has to happen that'll put the pressure on and And Fifi Lagarde over there in the EU, the European Central Bank. She is the Jay Powell of Europe. She's getting a little nervous. So they lowered the interest rate now down to 2.25%, I believe just in time to pour on some more debt

1:10:29 And she, I think the Mar-a-Lago Accords are coming and I think the stablecoin is on its way because she gave a very nervous response about stablecoin. On the issue of stablecoins you know that we have regulation in place it's called MICAR It is effective...it's currently under review and consultation for possible improvements and I'm delighted that this is the case because we are facing and if a constant evolution of those digital payments of those cross-border payments of Those stable coins which I would put in a very separate category From the cryptos. Yeah, because they're dollars that's why crypto assets or however you want to call them coins are a different animal and clearly having a good

1:11:19 solid regulation that constitutes the framework within which they can operate, I think is paramount and has been understood by the European Union by the Commission's by various authorities in charge of those matters and will be reviewed in order to make sure that it procures a safe harbor for those initiatives. But let me take the opportunity of this to acknowledge that for the first time in our monetary policy statement we refer to the digital euro and that should be a clear signal, not only do we stand ready and do the hard work that is incumbent upon us but it also acknowledges the fact that other European authorities are hopefully going to accelerate the pace at which we can deliver. I think she's afraid that the stablecoin is gonna flood her market

1:12:11 What stable coin are we talking about? Any stable coin will be an American dollar backed stable coin. She doesn't want people using stable coins, she's like but but but... We've got the digital euro coming! We've got our CBDC this is what we want! We don't want your stable coins Well, that's why she gonna well blame her. No of course not Very well I have a regulations about that stuff no stable coin for you don't use stablecoin people don't use it It's no good You want our digital euro? Yeah? No creep toes to different animals from the creeper the creep toes the creep toes So it's the trillion dollar coin John is coming this trillion-dollar coins the answer it is the answer it always is

1:12:59 And the Simpsons predicted it so you know it's gonna happen eventually. Probably the most underreported story, well it's totally just under reported. But it's also the most interesting story I think came out all week and you'd think they would have covered on these morning Sunday morning shows because this is a major event. This is the Wisconsin Story And in another court ruling over the power of the executive branch, in Wisconsin today. The state Supreme Court upheld a very unique partial veto power that the governor has. Governor Tony Evers used that power back in 2023 to lock-in a school funding increase for the next 400 years

1:13:53 At the heart of the case was Evers ability to veto even the tiniest parts of a bill, to dramatically alter its meaning. By striking individual words and numbers in the legislation he approved more school revenue increases until literally the year 2425 Wisconsin Supreme Court has been embroiled in national politics recently with Elon Musk pouring millions into a race to back a conservative judge who lost. It was the most expensive judicial contest in American history. So you can literally stripe away the word like not, should not exceed and then just take away the word not and it should exceed? Yes

1:14:41 Wow, and is this a liberal or conservative governor? He's I believe he's a liberal governor but it was the Liberal Supreme Court the one that you know must try to get that other guy into and you couldn't do it. that allowed this to happen, because he had done it anyway. He was like... This is taking line item veto which has been talked about forever. To an extreme! To an extreme and they can't seem to implement it. This is not line-item veto this is word veto Yes, word veto So you can basically end as a writer I can assure you that you can rewrite anything that means just the opposite Easily

1:15:23 Yeah, easily by just taking words out. That's great! And this is like... This is the most phenomenal story and it also sets a precedent at least at one state level that really I would... This is something to keep an eye on. Wow So he managed to get school funding for 400 years somehow by dicking around with a bill. That's great! Well, so I take this word out you know if you took this word out... States rights baby states rights yeah that was good Wisconsin should do whatever they want to do. That's beyond state's rights. They should do whatever they want to do if that's and if they can do that there could they need to change their Constitution? That's fantastic. That's why America is so fun we're exciting

1:16:13 We have crazy stuff that happens. So talk about crazy stuff, I do have some Brooks and K-Park clips which I have not done for weeks because of Gigi Okay, the show that literally no one else but you watches It is not a show. What is it then? It's a segment on the Friday version of the PBS News Hour You're able to get four clips out of a segment of a show that's unbelievable yes I have we're starting with

1:16:55 BBC, BNC this would be I think the one i start with is yeah Brooks Nuts You offered a prescription David in your column in the New York Times for this moment that we are in and you called for a civic uprising. You said in this- Oh wait, stop stop stop stop. Civic uprising? This is not the right one? No that's part of the series of nuts. The one I'm sorry this is BNC Brooks Christ is what Christ is Christ is crisis right book books cry it's Christus I want to talk about the courts the president has wielded his authority in

1:17:39 I think by any measure in an extraordinary way. Slashing budgets and jobs across the federal government, targeting billions of dollars at colleges and universities threatening major law firms on immigration we've all been following that remarkable process but the courts David in many instances have stood up to the president do you think that they are doing their appropriate role of check-and-balance? Yeah, I think they are. The question is whether Trump pays any attention to the courts and so to me watching the Trump administration's just a question administration say you know we've decided stoplights don't apply to us Yellow lines down the middle or don't apply. We're just gonna roll over it and you stop us

1:18:20 And when you think constitutional crisis, you think like two sides facing off on the barricades. But I've actually lived through a constitutional crisis when I was at The Wall Street Journal, I covered the end of Soviet Union. Whoa! That was a constitutional crisis? Okay. It was obviously very different in many ways but one thing that's interesting is the mental adjustment I had to make- The mental adjustment? Yeah, at the very end because I grew up in a country where if a law is passed then things will change and it'll be enforced and there will be reality on the ground But at the very end of the Soviet Union, they would pass law after law and nothing happened. Nobody bothered to enforce it. It never had any implementation so the laws were fictional because people had lost faith in the laws lost faith in the whole system. And so what happens now is not that you get this big conflict but Trump just says we're going arrest a guy who give no due process

1:19:11 And there's like no conversation, it just happens. And nobody is there to stop it because famously the judiciary doesn't have an army. Right now he referring to when President Biden and just said you know we're not going to adhere to the laws of immigration? Is that what he's talking about because that sounds awfully familiar. Or Biden refusing to suspend Freebie money for the people who took out student loans and it's a Supreme Court told him not to is he talking about that I guess but you know the Supreme Court clearly needs guns. You give them weapons! A couple of things, couple of things

1:19:49 Of course, when I started doing these clips. I always get the same basic complaint Yeah, don't give your money to PBS Okay well that's at the top of the list Don't give your money to PBS Where is somebody that can defend Trumps policies as a point interest as opposed to two guys who hate Trump. Brooks, who's supposedly a conservative much of the way like that crackpot Jennifer Rubin who is at The Washington Post called herself a conservative blogger she's a liberal nut and Brooks is not... Where's Ann Coulter?

1:20:32 That's a good question. Where is that? I don't know, but they could put anybody in there to have a counterpoint it should be point-counterpoint not two guys that both hate Trump Brooks hates Trump and Capehart really hates Trump. I guess maybe that's the difference one hates Trump more than the other But they know their audience. They don't want anyone defending him. They want more more pilot on he's no good. I'm getting mad So the other thing is he went through a constitutional crisis by visiting Russia. Yes, it was very hard By the way The Soviet Union was always run with a bunch of laws that were never enforced They were there for the purposes of enforcing when needed that was their idea do you said my favorite I went there before? The fall of communism I was in the it's the Soviets union

1:21:21 and visited, and my favorite... And there's all these laws they have. You can't do it if they wanted to arrest you they'd find a million things that you did wrong. My favorite one was the uh.. You can't take money out-you can't take the ruble outside of the country it has to stay inside I still have rubles in my box. The point is that they could arrest ya but then you're not supposed to take rubles outside of the country Technically, just outside of the air... there's some point where you're just outside the airport is considered not in the country and that's where they store the carts for the airport. You know, the luggage carts and to get one of the carts you have to use a ruble. Yeah So to use a cart you have to break the law

1:22:12 Well, when I was in Russia Soviet Union before the wall came down they told me whatever you do don't insult the Kremlin. So Sebastian Bach and I, Sebastian of Skid Row we went we were drinking vodka on Red Square at 3 a.m., and we were trading T-shirts for some of those cool Russian furry hats We didn't get arrested! We were there with Ozzy But you could have been Could have been Yeah, you're not supposed to do any buying or selling or anything during that era. I was told that everything's under the table so I picked up a couple of Russian watches that had Yuri Gagarin on them. Collectibles. Total collectibles! Do you have them still? And so they were...I forget some guy comes up to me would you like to buy a watch and I was told they were going to be trying to sell me with these watches

1:23:08 But they're illegal to buy. Yes. So I said, yeah sure and so I gave him whatever it was and he looked at the watch and as they looked at the watch and I looked up to guy was disappeared. It made me just like...I've never seen anyone vanish in thin air like this! The other thing that was notable when I was there was they did this with the beginning of the end where they would allow these some vendors around The Kremlin, they had these little shops that would sell approved souvenirs. And so you could buy like a shirt or I bought up this is during Paris Troika and actually bought a Paris Troika t-shirt and the thing it's rule was if the shirt cost five rubles and 50 copex or whatever it was, I can't remember what this sensor called

1:24:08 You had to pay exactly that amount because they won't...they can't make change. No change, right? They can't. It was against the law to make change and it was also against the law to overpay so you couldn't give them six and say keep the change! It was nuts! And this is Brooks' example of going through a constitutional crisis. This guy is so full of it. It's an embarrassment. Let's go to clip two I'm sorry Would this be nuts? Nuts one. No, no the second part is Capehart's response this is that BNC Capehart follow-up to what Brooks said so we can get the debate going oh yes here we go Jonathan what do you think about that I mean we had Georgetown Law professor Steve Ladeck on the show he says were not quite there yet because the Trump administration has not yet formally

1:25:02 formally blown through overtly ignored a direct court order yet. But we also heard from the League of Women Voters, the nonpartisan organization who this week I'd like to read you this quote- Bullshit! Who walked away from managing the elections because it was so rigged and stupid They said, quote It has now been 87 days since the start of the Trump administration From the flagrant disregard for congressional authority and governmental checks and balances to defying Supreme Court orders to bring Kilmar Abrego-Garcia back home. One thing is abundantly clear, our country is in a constitutional crisis.

1:24:08 You had to pay exactly that amount because they won't...they can't make change. No change, right? They can't. It was against the law to make change and it was also against the law to overpay so you couldn't give them six and say keep the change! It was nuts! And this is Brooks' example of going through a constitutional crisis. This guy is so full of it. It's an embarrassment. Let's go to clip two I'm sorry Would this be nuts? Nuts one. No, no the second part is Capehart's response this is that BNC Capehart follow-up to what Brooks said so we can get the debate going oh yes here we go Jonathan what do you think about that I mean we had Georgetown Law professor Steve Ladeck on the show he says were not quite there yet because the Trump administration has not yet formally

1:25:02 formally blown through overtly ignored a direct court order yet. But we also heard from the League of Women Voters, the nonpartisan organization who this week I'd like to read you this quote- Bullshit! Who walked away from managing the elections because it was so rigged and stupid They said, quote It has now been 87 days since the start of the Trump administration From the flagrant disregard for congressional authority and governmental checks and balances to defying Supreme Court orders to bring Kilmar Abrego-Garcia back home. One thing is abundantly clear, our country is in a constitutional crisis.

1:25:50 How can you say that the president hasn't defied court orders? You've got Judge Boasberg, who is threatening to... says yesterday that there's probable cause to charge the government or lawyers arguing on behalf of the government with criminal contempt. Why why why because the President- of the United States and his administration ignored his order to not deport those folks to El Salvador. So I know there are these formal definitions of what a constitutional crisis is, but from where I sit in my schoolhouse rock knowledge about how our government is supposed to work we are in one. We have a president of the United States who on a daily basis

1:26:35 blows past the guardrails, pushes as far as he can get to test the system. And what has heartened me this week is hearing from Judge Bozberg and the judge who ruled yesterday in that beautiful seven page opinion where they are not just saying this isn't the right thing to do. They are pushing back just as aggressively from their respective federal benches and I think we will be better for it I read that opinion and indeed... Beautiful! Those seven pages were just so beautiful. That guy is under investigation, no one mentions this he's under investigation that judge Yeah Boasberg yeah yes No one mentions that okay but i mean what really constitutes a constitutional crisis?

1:27:31 I mean, if the Supreme Court says you can't do that and the president does it is that by definition a constitutional crisis? No! None of this is. These people are insane they just look... They like the term because then it can easily devolve into the concept of a threat to democracy which is something they came up with and they love it And so they just want to keep harping on it, threat to democracy. Well if you use their standards this show has been in constitutional crisis many times Just between you and I. And it's a threat to democracy by their definition. It is a big threat to democracy By their definition because the threat of democracy is a threat to the Democrat Party, Is what they mean So what happens? This is a question as a constitutional question so if If the president ignores a court decision or court order You mean like Biden did Yes What happens

1:28:33 What does the Constitution say? What is supposed to happen you what's supposed to happen is you impeach the president. Ah, okay Which they'll do as soon as they get back in, once the Democrats get... Yes. Yeah yeah it's unlikely president if they lose the House and Senate or either one, or the House in particular is sure to be an impeachment he'll never finish four years It has to be the House. The House initiates. The House. Yeah they will impeach him for the third time nothing will come of because you can't get that many senators

1:29:10 You have to have 60 senators say yes. No, no it's just... No 75 I think you have to 75 percent Right that then that will be the whole circus all over again And then after that in 2028 the show ends because I can't do it anymore Can't I can't it'd be too much? I can't take it Exactly so this Brooks is off the rails through the point where now he sounds more like a Democrat than ever and Now he's actually part of the idea of protesting in the streets because it's gotten so bad with Trump. Pitchforks! Let's go people, let's go! It's so bad I don't know if you look out your window right now does you probably see people running up and down the street with their hair on fire? I mean it's...I see nothing but pickup trucks with Confederate flags around here John everybody in Fredericksburg is happy

1:30:01 The funny thing is I'm not seeing anything different here in the Berkeley area, let alone if I drove past the Tesla place again with a thousand Teslas surrounding it. There's not one...I haven't seen one damaged Tesla or anything in between so the whole thing is something of a farce but let's listen to what Brooks believes should happen You offered a prescription, David in your column in the New York Times for this moment that we are in. And you called for a civic uprising. You said in this column I want to read a bit of this saying that the attacks that we've seen on institutions quote are not separate battles This is a simple effort to undo the parts of the civilizational order That might restrain Trump's acquisition of power

1:30:48 So how would that civic uprising form? Yeah, the core argument is that Trump is really about amassing power. And anything that might potentially restrain his power he will destroy and that includes court systems and anything part of it that livens humanity includes universities, the scientific community, the truth, the media... Oh no! ...and so far we've responded to all these things like NATO in separate lanes We think the Fed is different than NATO which is different from the universities But my point is this all one thing And if institutions and even sectors try to respond to this individually, they're doomed. Even Harvard with $52 billion in its endowment you can't do it alone. Though that was a signal moment That was a crucial turning point because it changed the minds of everybody at every university I've talked to since then Oh really? Yeah so post-Harvard they all said... A lot of them beforehand were like well Columbia made a deal maybe thats right for us once Harvard came out

1:31:40 I talked to a couple of university presidents who said, this is where we need to be. Because the Trump administration made it impossible for Harvard not to say no and that's what we're dealing with here. And so the point I tried to make is all these different sectors have to get together and form one big civic movement. And it can't be political, it's not Democrats versus Republicans, it's not left verus right, its institutions verses the destruction or our institution civilization Institutions of civilization. Yeah, well this is what they're saying in Europe he's destroying the institutions of civilization... Of civilization! Oh man you know the other thing they're saying in Europe is America is right now in the middle of a revolution and that is true

1:32:23 That is exactly what's happening. We are in the middle of a revolution breaking down stupid stuff that we all somehow were told to believe this is how it goes, just this is what it is you don't fire government workers keep everything going go along to keep going along and no...no its stopping Yeah, and so these don't get that part. So these guys think that they okay well maybe it's the Bernie and AOC crowd maybe you can arm them yeah Can you imagine? No I can't It was a good thread that i put up on uh on X formerly known as Twitter um That somebody had posted a big protest in England Uh pro-trans Oh

1:33:18 And so somebody had collected, gone to the thing and collected all these pictures of the signage. And it's frightening! It's so off the, it's unbelievable. People should try to track that down and by the way I do need more followers, The Real Dvorak on Twitter. You're never, it's never gonna happen. I have the same thing like I'm stuck forever at 98000. This is because before Elon got in there they put...I'm sure they have limits They actually gave a limit if this guy goes beyond this number no Yeah thats me Yeah, I think it is you. And me for sure because I get to 102 thousand point four and it stops or goes down as...I'm down to one oh two point two. I should be at a million Okay, I am looking at this thread now Here's the sign. I will make you listen Transmen are women trans men are men If you don't like that go shit somewhere else okay F the system C-i-s-T-E-M

1:34:24 Transphobe, do-it-yourself lobotomy as a guy poking his eye out with a knife. Okay? Babies for trans rights! Oh that's a nice one It's not radical to remove rights. Transphobes are the dangerous minority You ruled for discrimination violence murder sexual assault harassment of an innocent minority Eat the gender binary. Oh that's a good one Eat the gender binary is a good one. You know, this is in England. This isn't the UK where these signs are cropping up? When did they become so... Because I thought they were the first ones that started backing off on the whole trans thing and now it's all back with a fury? Yeah but it's not trans John, its transmaoism! It's a political thing has nothing to do with people who are trans or whatever. Its political. This is a political movement

1:35:17 of very unhappy people who have been hypnotized by COVID. On to clip two And if you look down through history, there have been social movements. These kind of civic uprisings that have succeeded they've banded together across sectors. They have a clear simple message that appeals to a lot of different people. They use things like lawsuits, protests boycotts all sorts of things strikes anything they can do but basically- Shouldn't Brooks get out on front should he be the first on the barricade? Come on everybody follow me I'm Brooks

1:35:57 I'll tell you what to do. Yeah, he should have a big red flag on a pole. All sorts of things strikes anything they can do but basically if your head of the law firm or university any these institutions you're dealing with administration it's just about raw power. Elites of the world unite behind me! So the question is how we amass power so they are not dividing us so were dividing them And that is a mass uprising. And the one turning point, if you look even at the civil rights movement when you do a nonviolent protest and the people on the other side attack you with violence that tends to weaken them and then suddenly they're dividing them. So obviously...and so this is the kind of way we have to think. Has he noticed? The great military strategist

1:36:43 This is the violence is on the left and it's always been on the left And it's on the left now with the protests going on and burning the Tesla dealerships and all the rest of it Has he noticed this or has just ignored that thinks? It's gonna be that's Pushback, that's necessary. That's necessary for the people to show their power against battery cars And so this is the kind of way we have to think that it's time not just to think well Maybe he'll look at the other guy It's time we're all involved, we're all in this together and we are going to amass power. Jonathan do you think that movement, that uprising is going to happen? I mean we saw protests recently there are major protest planned for tomorrow Do you think there is this coalescing energy David is talking about? I think it's happening! It's happening! I'm out front Come on girls let's go! It's happening!

1:37:40 These people are gonna go back home, drink their Chardonnay. Have their nuts." That was a great show! Yes it was we have the nation behind us. The Chardonnay is the right... yes they'll be drinking Chardonnay We have the country behind us. Yes I'm getting text messages from everywhere they so agree throw off your sweaters Come on, swirl your shard. Throw off the cardigan! Swirl your shard and let's go people Do they know that they're on the losing end of this?

1:38:16 No! What do you think? They're in a dream world, but it's like what is so annoying is this is a disservice. Listen to these two clowns... The only one servicing them is you by playing these clips over and over again they're still on the air In fact they go home swirl their shard and like I sure hope John will play these clips So we stay relevant in the universe That's what happening here They do a disservice. This is public broadcasting, it's paid for by the government they get a billion dollars from the government to do this and this is what... Well no! No, It's also from viewers like you. You know what? Not from viewers like me

1:39:02 I think this is the last of the clips. And i think it started when people were showing up outside of USAID, when they were going through hell. We're seeing it in the town halls and Republican districts so much that the leadership told Republican members of Congress don't hold town halls anymore we've seen it with big rallies in red states convened by Senator Bernie Sanders and AOC in red states, I think just yesterday or two days ago in Montana. Hundreds if not thousands of people- 100 million! And then you look at what's happening and the courts and the judges are impartial but they are also part of this pushing back on what's happening

1:39:49 For Harvard to do what it did, I think sent a message not just to university presidents but to the country that if Harvard had folded it would have been a devastating thing. But it didn't happen and I will just say this one last point in Trump 1- Fuck the Joe's! Adam Sore wrote famously The Cruelty is the Point about about the first Trump administration. And I would argue that in Trump 2 It's now the cruelty is the policy And I think what we're seeing around the country is people pushing back against Trump too. Jonathan Capehart, David Brooks always good to see you both thank you. Thanks for awesome segment boys great job boy that was so riveting all right well let's talk about the town hall cruelty is the policy that's right and it's scary the town halls are scary very scary

1:40:41 Even Marjorie Taylor Greene's town halls are just scary. North of Atlanta, Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's town hall had flashes of WrestleMania. Hostility, jeering, scuffling with security and a ringmaster, Georgia's firebrand Congresswoman. This is not a political rally. This is not a protest. Three hecklers were arrested, police tasered two of them including this man these town halls have become so raucous green is one of the few Republicans to hold one during this congressional recess

1:41:19 Their national party has suggested members hold virtual town halls instead. Already in three months, we've got more emails than all of last year. What does that tell you? For an hour in Iowa a room full of Senator Charles Grassley's constituents ganged up on the 91-year old Republican Yeah! We showed him come on Dems Do your job Senator. Yeah! Do your job man Did you see this guy was sitting back he's like This was far from WrestleMania. Do your job, man! Hey man do your job! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah man do your job! They're furious and they want answers on issues from Social Security to deportations. Are you gonna bring that guy back? From El Salvador?! Bring that guy back, ya know the one from El Salvador!? Yeah!

1:42:15 Why not? Well, because that's not the power of Congress. Poor dude! That's not... What is going on?! Who are these people? Did someone bust them in? Why yes they did. Happened to Murkowski too In these moments some people clearly seem scared Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski made this extraordinary admission We are all afraid Well, yes, she's a town hall in her bucket. Yes I'm afraid Because retaliation is real. And it's not just Republicans getting an earful from their constituents. I don't think that you have fought hard enough. Democratic Representative Laura Friedman got the same message from Californians. Our constitutionally denied- Okay, please sit down we've got a lot of questions I want to get through Do more and fight harder and yet there's this reality check

1:43:22 The president's approval rating stands at 47% in our recent CBS News poll. Higher than at any point during his first term! That was a great statistic, I love it...I didn't expect him to do that. 47 percent approval rating higher than his first term? It's getting worse. I think they're doing this to try and rile up the Democrats Oh totally That's what you do. He is getting more popular, we have to do more! Be crazier! Do more! Sit more... Yeah be crazier that it. We're CBS News, be crazier because this is great and easy for us all we have to do is film it and its good news It gets people watch the show our dying shows yeah Good idea I think they could do a little bit better on audio I'm disappointed in CBS with their audio

1:44:19 You know, some of the audio and the fact that they... you can clean up that Murkowski clip. Somewhat yeah But nobody's done it so every time you hear it I could have You something that had that clip in there, but I thought the clip was on you can't hear her. It's unusable I know it's a I can't believe I played it. Oh, I apologize stunned That you played it alright. I'm gonna play something different. I guess switch shift gears here for second it is of course Easter today Please take note Adam and John working on Easter Oh, that's right. You know I forgot to milk that! That's true we're working on Easter Sunday again... I think we've worked every Easter ever Well it's a Sunday you typically so yes I believe so I don't think we take any... yeah? No no Who else can say that nobody? No

1:45:17 So this comes from Frau Ingraham's show, The Ingraham Report. And so I wanted to play this just as a good news Jesus-free clip but then I thought wait...wait! This is actually us put down on the famous Dana Brunetti. Dana Brunetti the producer of major box office smashes such as Gran Turismo such as House of Cards, such as Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades of Greyer. And he will not listen to me... He also did the social network... The social network! I mean these were huge hits. Captain Phillips is one of his big hits With Tom Hanks? Yeah Interesting mm-hmm I wonder if Brunetti's ever been to the island with Tom Probably not

1:46:12 Anyway, he will not listen to me. I tell him that you know his career is in a slump Hollywood hates it as he's retired hello I'm defending Dana Brunetti never retired from show business You're always looking for your next CIA. You're always looking for your next hit you up? You always want to have that one more time. I want to get in the game one more time I have told him time and time again But he will not listen to me The way to go is Jesus Dana Brunetti this Good Friday a note of hope It's no secret that people have been writing the obituary of Christianity since Jesus was nailed to the cross Have you been to the movies recently some of the biggest box-office winners in recent weeks? The King of Kings and the Chosen Last Supper Why are Jesus movies beating Disney releases because there's a yearning community rooted in that truth

1:47:05 on packed this Holy Week. The National Catholic Register is reporting across the country, dioceses are seeing annual increases in new converts of 30 to 70 percent that's up I'm reading similar reports in England and France and even in Washington DC there's a pronounced effort to demonstrate faith these days in a way you just didn't see a few years ago President Trump has made a habit of inviting pastors of various denominations

1:47:53 pray with him in the Oval Office. Earlier this week, the president held an Easter prayer service and dinner at the White House. What you are seeing is the normalization of faith across the culture culture and government. It's like a green light that one can with calm and confidence express faith without fear of recriminations in the way the founders intended, and it's a message that those Gen Zers who are going to be baptized this weekend seem to be responding too. Get on the train Brunetti!

1:48:36 Jesus is trying to assist this report jive with all the anti-christian stories that are coming. You know, the Christians they gotta do this again they're under attack everyone hates them I would be making where's your narratives of straight not the narrative Where's your report? Well, I don't have a report on this like it next show. I'll have a dozen clips Okay bring it on and then I bet you can't find a dozen Well, I'm not going to find a dozen. Oh okay there you go But i'll find enough No people are becoming bold in their faiths John this is good and the movies and you know You've said it yourself The president sets the tone for the country that's what's going on When he starts watching those movies Yeah That will make a difference He's gonna go to the premiere With the premiere of what? Of Mel Gibson's uh The Passion the sequel

1:49:34 The Passions of the Christ 2. Yes, the sequel! It's gonna be worse. That was a very stressful movie. That first movie is all in Aramaic Yeah but you cannot say it wasn't very successful. It was one of the biggest grossing movies of all time I think. Unwatchable Oh I loved it 800 billion dollars You can't watch anything. It was 800 billion, okay hold on a second... It was not 800 billion! ...was the box office for Passion of the Christ I'm going to ask your favorite AI. Okay you're right 612 billion

1:50:21 No, it was million but it was close. Yes 612 million is not 800 billion! But that's okay I like the way you think you're just like... You're in a dream world. No, I'm in reality my friend. Meanwhile, on the other end of the spectrum on the social networks things not looking too good. We've got lawsuits happening everywhere What started as a chat app for gamers has become a playground for child predators That's what the New Jersey Attorney General alleges of Discord Discord appeals to online predators who use the app to sexually exploit children New Jersey is now the first state to sue Discord You know what discord is don't you?

1:51:07 I think i do. I don't use discord, I don't know discord. Oh well no discord is very popular. Well how's it more popular than snapchat? It's more popular than whatsapp It's popular than Signal, it is more popular than Telegram. What you're saying we just keep on spouting is not comparable A Discord server is not just a chat, it has files and all kinds of different functions A lot of them are used by spooks. It was a big gamer thing, you could share... You know that's where you could also buy stuff, you could buy your in-game gear so it's that's why they say it's a server and I think it's even open source but the company Discord is very successful

1:52:01 They're making a lot of money and they're in trouble. New Jersey is now the first state to sue Discord, alleging it does not provide a safe environment for kids The app with over 200 million monthly users operates as a series of chat rooms known as servers Attorney General Matthew Plattken says a number of the people in those servers are adults communicating with children Plattken blames Discord's default settings which allow anyone to friend anyone There's very little to prevent kids from connecting with and receiving message from complete strangers. The Attorney General's office points to several child predator cases it prosecuted, with links to Discord. Predators that were found have used the app to engage in sexual grooming extortion

1:52:47 exploitation. The AG's office also says discord misled parents about a feature called safe direct messaging. Discord said safe direct messaging would scan direct messages and delete those with explicit content But discord knew that wasn't true. The Attorney General's office also alleges Discord is a breeding ground for extremists and racist content, white nationalists organized the 2017 Unite the Right rally on Discord through New Jersey Attorney General's Office sued Meta in 2023 and TikTok in 2024. Discord now the latest social media site called to court we are now in a position to lead nationally. The New Jersey attorney general is seeking civil penalties as well

1:53:30 and in order that discord give back any profits that were generated in New Jersey. So of course this is parents moving, you know shoving their own responsibility out of the way. You've got to take away these phones from these kids just no organize with your school no phones for these kids stop it's all dumb. I'm still stunned by the fact that kids can be on their phones in a classroom Yeah, that's ending. There is a lot of... Well it's barely ending and everyone is bitching about it! It's like it should have never begun when I was a kid. Oh boy here we go. This reminds me of the thing... When you were a kid your parents kept YOU in the drawer?

1:54:18 When I was a kid, there were two things that there's interesting switch over. There was like when I was a kid it was a big deal that kids got caught smoking in the bathroom. By the time I was out of college it was like oh no nobody smokes but they smoked pot in the bathroom now all of a sudden they went from smoking cigarettes to pot in the bathroom when I was a kid it was like verboten to have a handheld calculator like an HP. Yes! You couldn't... You remember this too, don't you Boomer? Yeah and then you had your watch he had the little Casio watch with the little pen and you could it had a calculator on it you could tap the little numbers with the pen on the watch face remember that no I don't remember that but I can see people doing it yeah

1:55:10 Yeah, but couldn't have gone from no you can't have a calculator in the classroom Because it's cheating. Oh yeah, you're gonna have a phone Where you could get with the internet in your gun your hand you can look anything up But it's because the parents the kids that you you produced The boomer generation. The parents are like I have to be in touch with much bless You I have to be in touch with my child, you know If my son doesn't feel well and yet we never that was never us No We went to the nurse and a nurse said sit here lay down he's an aspirin

1:55:48 I know, i know. Meanwhile more lawsuits Facebook PayPal or Venmo accounts you might have some money from Facebook inside Facebook started sending out $40 67 cent payments to users as part of a class-action lawsuit over my money claim that Facebook used cookies to track users even when they were logged out are using other websites Facebook agreed to settle the suit but did not admit to any wrongdoing. They gotta end that too, they should have to repent! We did it we're sorry here's your $40. They should be forced to admit wrongdoing

1:56:25 And Google also on the block for the millionth time of which, of course just a fine will be paid and nothing else will happen. This is really a big blow to the company. The US judge in Virginia essentially saying that Google held an illegal monopoly over key parts of the online advertising market now this all stemmed from a lawsuit from the U.S. Justice Department as well as 17 individual us states that argue that google dominated three essential tools in ad tech namely publisher ad servers ad exchanges and tools used by advertisers. Picture any website that you use that has advertising, look at the top banner or the banners on the left and right these are all comes from deals that Google strikes with advertisers who then are allowed to place their ads on millions of millions of websites across the internet now the court agreed partially saying the company locked in publishers and blocked out rivals The judge also ruled that Google removed key product features

1:57:21 and forced customers to stick with his tools which in turn hurt competitors, the competition and customers. Google has denied hurting the market saying that it will appeal the judgment in a statement saying that it did win half of the case today And they will go on to win the other half It's such a racket those guys have They have buy side, they've got sell side They've got the tools...they've got everything! Everything! This is total scam Yeah, we figured out Total scam Total scam and my final then this is we have talked about this for well over a decade We have warned about this. We probably haven't even framed it as such the best jail, the best jail

1:58:04 is the one that you let the inmates build themselves. And we are here. Some police departments are using a new tool, those home doorbell cams to create a crime-fighting camera network. But as Steven Romo reports the privacy questions have some critics concerned Across the country crimes are being caught on doorbell and surveillance cameras every day Now, more and more police departments are leaning into this technology getting homeowners and businesses to share their video with local law enforcement. The goal to create a network of cameras to fight crime.

1:58:46 more frequent apprehensions and faster apprehension of suspects. In Washington DC, their Camera Connect program and real-time crime center launched early last year in that time they've seen a 35% reduction in violent crime, a 30 year low and they say the tens of thousands of new camera registrations they've had so far will be an important tool to continue that trend This program allows for those that wish to provide information to us, to remain anonymous. And it makes a more of a comfortable interaction rather than having an officer knocking on your door." This is so bad and part of it is because people just love capturing this stuff on their cameras like oh I can't wait to post that to TikTok. Oh look! I caught a fight put

1:59:35 Put it on X. It's true! Look at there is a rat Oh, that plane fell out of the sky... The rat That plane fell out of the sky I had it, I had it, I'm on the news Similar programs are in place in jurisdictions coast to coast And while the rules can vary, it generally works like this When homeowners register they can join a list Of available cameras that law enforcement can turn to In an investigation Police can request video from them and the homeowner can then choose whether to provide that video or not. Yeah, you want to send that to us don't you? I mean you wouldn't want to hold back any evidence would you. Seriously! I think it's probably a good idea if you give that footage to us don't you think? Businesses that sign up can take it a step further They can opt in and provide their live surveillance feeds giving police departments access to their cameras in real time And while police say they've seen success privacy advocates have serious concerns about handing over this kind of access

2:00:35 When you justify surveillance by saying that it's only going to be used against the most violent criminals, what you end up seeing is those technologies become slowly over time an everyday aspect of policing. Many police departments emphasize these programs are voluntary and designed with privacy and transparency in mind We're not passively watching camera feed and watching people live their day-to-day lives New uses for the latest technology to help keep us safe You can't stop it. This is where the Skynet is here Yeah, we're building it ourselves And you know what if I go to someone's house and I see one of those cameras? I'm gonna call them and walk away so I am NOT coming to your house take that ring camera down once she just take a Some shoe polish and put it right over the lens Yeah Rip it right off and put it in my drawer next to my phone

2:01:37 It's none of this is good, but it again. I'm telling you it's because people love it Oh yeah, I got this I got this I got him. I got him and my clip went viral grow. I'm awesome All right Hey if you catch the pizza rat that could be worth some money Piece of rat. Yeah... Hey, with that I want to thank you for your courage in the morning to the man who just put the C's in the crime-fighting camera network say hello to my friend on the other end the one and only Mr John Cena! Yeah well in the mornin' to you Mr Adam Crane in the mornin' our ships will see boots at the ground. Make sure your stuff is in the water and all the games are nice out there. In the mornings to the trolls in the troll room make sure you have a second hand troll spacer one time every night

2:02:27 1912, not bad for an Easter Sunday. Aren't you people out hunting eggs? 1912 stinks! For a Sunday? Well for a holiday you know nobody comes and listens this is why nobody does work that's why nobody works I've said it before yeah this is why nobody works on these holidays because nobody's around they don't listen they're actually doing something they're living their lives No, people always want to check in with us. I mean again we do this as a public service for everybody it's important if we don't point it out who is going to? Everybody else is on the take one way or the other they may not even know it

2:03:12 But they want to be popular. We clearly don't want to be popular. Yes, I guess that's true! We gave that up a long time ago. Hey man you guys should see video. Need to do video The trolls are in the troll room, trollroom.io This is just one of the many features we've been doing for oh gosh over 15 years with the live chat and streaming We were on that so early why did we even decide to do that? You did it was all you It was me I was against it You were against live-streaming? Well I thought it was unnecessary And how do you feel about now? I was pure...I was in the purer side of the podcasting formula How do you feel about it now

2:03:54 I think it's fabulous. Yeah, yeah that was completely wrong you were right oh my god I can't believe this is like the whole week i've been right You can also listen to it on the modern podcast apps which are recommend you give them a go podcastapps.com uh you know um the big um What's it called? Pocket casts pocket cast which originally pocket casts. I don't know if you know the story behind it No. It was an app that was built by NPR and PBS, they all put like 50 million dollars into building this app. That sounds right! And it wound up... the whole thing fell apart then it was sold to another group because its very hard to make money on a podcast app unless

2:04:40 You know people just want to support the developer which you should do most apps have a way to support the developer through Premium something or other you should do that because that improves your app over time and ultimately Matt Mullenweg's outfit automatic bought it the guys behind WordPress, and they open sourced it and And they have now added all these podcasting 2.0 features including the funding tag which is cool so if you use Pocket Cast app, if you want to support the show there's a button right there just look at the app right now it says Support The Show You click on it boom! You go right to our donation page

2:05:17 Is that right? Yes, it's another podcasting 2.0 improvement to podcasting Yep. Yeah Wow yeah impressed well thank you Thank you That was one of the first things I didn't do it uh I was a big part of it yeah we all We all this is the whole group The whole group is about 150 people been the groups in together for five years Yeah. It's, uh... You won't find that on- That does stem from NPR you said? No but that feature- NPR did nothing! They had to- they tried to sneak in an ad thing called Red. Red R A D red I don't know what and radio advertising directive or something That thing fell apart And so no none of these features were in there when it was bought No. That is a 2.0 feature my friend You will not find that on Spotify or Apple Uh huh

2:06:08 You can get those at podcastlapse.com? You're a saint! I don't know about that, I don't know about that... Well you're sniffling Yes It's getting worse as the show progresses yes i think it's uh there's something about you that spurns it all It's the COVID now you can't blame me God I had nothing to do with it It's Dutch COVID, Dutch COVID is what I got um As we mentioned, we've been doing this for over 17 years and the way that we have been able to sustain our transparency, our honesty, our integrity and quite frankly... We're quite trans. Our lack of global success is by our value-for-value model which means you don't get ads You know, have to pause for anything Oh man! It's gotten so bad now with the ads Do you listen any other podcast ever? I do yeah Yeah like what

2:07:01 Well, I don't have any one that I listen to over and over. I just listen to a variety of podcasts. I sent you one this morning the YouTube podcast That's not a podcast. That's a YouTube video Well, it's a guy with it. We were okay He does the guy with one guy with a microphone and he's wearing a beanie and he's not Tim pool That's a podcast as liberty new uniform for podcasters is a beanie You know that can see guys again over the beanie that hands that's it? That's what we need to do. We need to have beanies and We gotta have beanies over the cans. I think that would be good, that would be a good look for us Not beanies over the cans, but cans under the beanie Cans over the beanie No, the cans are over the beanie Yeah Well there you go The cans are over the beanie I've already helped our artists with the art and we're guaranteed we won't choose it You'll have two or three of those already Guaranteed They won't get picked Don't do them

2:07:57 Value for value is how we decided to move this ball forward and it's been okay. I mean, it certainly... It's been a ride. You know? Imagine like you look at your check at the end of the month like oh! It's much less than it was in the month before why? I don't know. You suck Okay thanks got it or hey We did well people liked us but we can't Kowtow to anybody because that's when just doesn't work The audience capture thing doesn't work. People who want you to say certain things, they never donate. Have you noticed that? Oh yeah, that's why we don't do it. We know this because we've been around a block. People are like you got to talk more about this and you gotta talk about Epstein Yeah if you don't talk about Epstein how they control everything. Epstein! Max where is the list? I want to see it! Yeah I wanted too there is no list. And Diddy Do you really think there's a list of clients and has behind it likes this likes this has a penchant for that

2:08:57 Do you really? I don't think so. You think that list exists? No, they destroyed it. I don't think it ever existed. I mean do you know your clients well enough to write that down? Oh he likes the feather... Too many people! There's a massive amount of people who need the details Well, we want the list. I agree we want the list We want to listen and you know what or at least come out and say that or at least come out with the BS There is no lifts. We tried and tried and tried Pam bondage can come out and do that at any time she can say were wrong And we thought we thought we had something here. We don't yeah just tell us a truth instead of dangling Yes yes How about that frazzle drip video? Tell us more

2:09:46 Frazzled. I don't even know about that. Oh, you don't want to see it frazzled You don't know the frazzle drip? No. That's horrible. I didn't want to tell you what- I would have called if you said that out of the blue I figured that's a disease you have currently No, it's supposedly Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin torturing a child and cutting off the childs face and wearing it like a mask. There I said it! Oh yeah, I remember that... oh now you remember how could you forget that one? Somehow that didn't leave.. It was hard for me to get out of my mind. Because his bull crap is worse than his frazzle drip yes Yeah So

2:10:29 Hey we're gonna do something really gross. Somebody, anybody with a camera or anyone with a phone that can take a picture of this so we can use it as evidence against us? And remember it was filmed by Podesta Podesta. Yes, it was Podesta filming because you can hear him laugh. It's Podesta's laugh everybody knows it. Everybody knows it! Wow this is turning out to be such an Easter show isn't it? That's beautiful yeah thanks to you what do you mean?! You brought it up I didn't well you pretend that you didn't know Value for value is where we ask you to support the show for the service that we provide free of charge. There's no limitations We never asked you to jump through any hoops not even a registration You know, you can sign up for the newsletter Which is also free which you also get in your price more people don't sign up for it It's good content this and it's funny

2:11:27 And it always gives a little preview of stuff we're going to talk about or what's going on. I got some memes of the week, some funny memes. I got a hypocrite in there every newsletter has got different one. Yeah and i know you do a lot of work on creating those hypocrite memes. You have to look through somebody else's files yeah! It is very difficult work well it's not as easy as it looks it used to be easier when the guy most of these come from Defiant L Yeah, he used to be... He used to crank these out and then all of a sudden it became like oh everyone's you know I think Trump or somebody said hey this guy's got some good stuff so now he's pontificating. He's clipping all kinds of stuff It's just like gone beyond. He's gone beyond. He's gotten to his head. Jumped the shark. He's jumped the shark? Yeah yeah he has jumped the shark

2:12:14 So one of the ways people support us with time and talent is what our artists do. And our artists are very talented, they've been talented for many many years and a lot of them have picked up the tools of the trade I mean back in the day people were using Microsoft Paint when we started this show and then MacDraw, I remember a lot of people used MacDraw And then slowly they came in with some Photoshop and then there was a big, oh I remember the controversy. That's clip art! Someone is cheating with clip art Those days seem silly by todays terms don't they? Because now it's AI People are using AI Not all but many are using them Some have figured it out I'd say over half of artists are using AI Some are so good that we think its AI and it's not

2:13:00 But all of it is at noagendaartgenerator.com and you can, if you're listening live, you can just go there and refresh and see the new ideas streaming in which is fantastic And of course all of these images make have a pretty good shot being used for the chapters Which you can see on the modern podcast apps including Pocket Casts It's a big app! Pocket Casts has like 3% of the market which is pretty big for For an app So our art for episode 1756, which we titled AG Barbie came to us from Dr. Kelly and it was a Hey Bill Pick Me girl! And people loved this art I knew they would...I knew it and you know people were really ready to give up Linux like well if Microsoft has girls like that I'm packing up my Linux I'm going to Windows! I saw him say it

2:13:54 And this was of course based upon a story that you had never told, I don't think i'd ever heard it before. That Microsoft would send off these girls to Australia to go work there because they had to protect them against Bill and... Well no its after they have the affair with Bill they had to protect the company Oh the company right yeah Do you think that eKaren was one of them? I don't know, maybe. Remember the girl who used to... she worked at... she turned down a job at the CIA and then she worked for Microsoft in the 90s? Would this have been in the 90's? It probably would have been the 90's. And then she was sent over to run the outfit in Australia! Well if it's yes, so yes. Sounds like she might've been one of them

2:14:45 So that was Dr. Kelly, and Dr. Kelly won anything previously? No this was Dr. Kelly's second submission. Dr. Kelly has only been an artist for three weeks has only entered twice and boom! It happens nailed it nailed it that was really well that was a point of controversy we both wanted to pick the one next to it which was shrimp Barbie let me see let me see where was what was with shrimp Barbie Well, you go find a bill pick me from dr. Kelly is right next to it this I believe you don't remember this I traveled across the world well Is it on the next page?

2:16:33 So we were talking about... Oh no, we didn't want that one. That's the one I wanted! I thought that was great No it's not you do when you won it was the same one I'm talking about You were laughing We both thought it was funnier than the cute girl I'm telling you I was laughing at the other one Well that's a terrible one I though that was funny Now the one I liked Yeah yeah you liked shrimp barbie I gotcha No I liked Bad Cook by Darren O'Neal And you just thought it was AI slop? Yeah, it was slop. It's actually quite good. There are some other pick bills down further that are a little more cheesecake-y You know the troll room is like well what is this I hate this conversation you guys aren't playing along we have to get to the website and play along yeah if you're not on the website its boring yes but they think oh this is riveting Oh this is so good This is inside baseball

Yes We lost him On March 26th, he had a large benign brain tumor removed and the procedure went well. And his recovery seemed to be off to a great start. Unfortunately 12 days later, he collapsed at his home on April 7 from what appeared to be a seizure and heart attack that followed. He never regained consciousness and passed officially on April 13th at the age of 46. No good! Sudden death.

2:25:37 Raleigh punched me in the mouth back in 2019. I have been a No Agenda listener and a producer ever since Raleigh was an elder at the church, I ministered at for six years, and a mentor and a very close friend—I'm bit lost without him—and there are many people in Southern Illinois mourning his loss. Adam when we noticed the beginning of your faith journey Raleigh and I would often refer to Mark 12 34 where Jesus says you are not far from the kingdom of God So thankful to call you a brother in Christ.

It's a very long cycle and we're at the depths of the bottom! All right... Yeah, that stuff was a lot better

2:30:12 I mean, it was catchy. We had people that... I think maybe they had rhythm. It's hard to say. You know what? It was before AI when you had to have rhythm and chops to make something. I would give you that one. AI might be partly responsible. It is hurting everything that is creative or maybe it's helping. Cotton Gin says maybe that speaks of the quality of the show lately Maybe it does. Maybe it does what do you why is he listening?

Eight Americans we know were killed, several others wounded and it all happened 250 years ago today Jordan. Then Concord also marked the battle with a dawn salute and check this out right now we're expecting to see some cannons and potentially some muskets fire off or maybe right now

2:32:26 How's that for timing? That is exactly the moment I wanted us all to see in replay from when Mike heard that cannon go off. Too funny! Such a great tribute to this...

Hey, I got some very disturbing news about COVID! The Trump administration has gone off the rails! Did you see covid dot gov?

2:36:03 No, I did not see COVID. Should i go look at it now? You should go to covid dot gov. Covid dot gov is where you should be able to get information about vaccinations we should get building that information about all kinds of things except ivermectin um... We can get free tests from the government but no! That has changed! CBS News medical contributor Dr. Celine Gounder joining us now to talk about these findings let's talk about the White House and Did you see COVID.gov? Do you see what it says now? Yes, this has been floating...this image has been floating around I don't understand why Trump has to be in the image unless he's the leak Well let's go to Celine Gounder from CBS to understand if this is a problem If they can do because if you haven't seen COVID.gov

2:36:50 Basically, yes definitely go check it out has the entire report on kovat coming from a lab leak in China Not some some pangolin or some bat from away. Yes CBS News medical contributor dr Salim Gounder joining us now to talk about these findings Let's talk about the White House and the 2024 congressional reports specifically saying coven 19 most likely came from a lab leak in China but many scientists still lean towards the natural origin so unpack all of that for us. So there's no smoking gun really for either theory but the strongest scientific evidence points to a natural spillover most likely at that wet market in Wuhan in China where... So she's just going head-on against it! Live animals that are known to carry coronaviruses... Hold on, stop

2:37:40 I want to mention one thing with this thesis of hers that's old and stale. They could never find this so-called animal that had this disease, ever! They've never found it in the wild on any animal... they got the wet market right there they can go through everything they could check. Yep You done? Yeah, I'm done. In Wuhan in China where live animals that are known to carry coronaviruses were being sold there was genetic material from infected animals including raccoon dogs that was found in the same places where the virus was first detected at that market Wow! Raccoon dogs didn't even play during COVID and she's bringing that out That's amazing And there is no direct evidence that the virus came from a lab This is new one John it's a new variant

2:38:32 Not just no evidence, there's no direct evidence. This is very tricky. In places where the virus was first detected... Wait stop this clip! This came from what? The CBS? Yes Dr. Celine Gounder CBS. Okay, yes yes CBS Yes you know CBS it was this is the CIA's report at that market why but why are they going back to this old bromide? Let's see if the clip gives us some insight and there's no direct evidence that the virus came from a lab US intelligence reports say the Wuhan Lab did not have SARS CoV-2 How about this for theory

2:39:11 How about there never was COVID, it was just the flu and she's not lying. There was no direct evidence for COVID from a lab. No maybe it was just... Remember the flu was gone? There was no flu. Flu was zero. Zero cases of flu everybody had COVID so maybe... Right and then they were killing him off with the ventilators Yes! And Remdesivir and all kinds of other nastiness Maybe we're just an unhealthy population So maybe she's right. Maybe there was no COVID from the lab or from the pangolin or the raccoon dog, or anything I have COVID now! I'm a living! The virus that causes COVID... Or a close precursor even before the pandemic started Okay so the government claims the virus contains a genetic feature that does- Did she say government?

2:40:00 Go ahead again. It sounded like she said the government. SARS-CoV2, the virus that causes COVID or a close precursor even before the pandemic started Okay so the government claims the virus contains... Government! She said government! Yeah, she said government. Government! Okay so the government claims the virus contains a genetic feature that does not exist in nature is that accurate? So that claim is misleading because they're talking about a part of the virus, what's called the furin cleavage site. Cleavage? Which helps the virus to infect human cells and it was unusual when scientists first saw this but that's because they didn't know how to look for it. And since then we've... No!

2:40:41 I love this. And since then we've learned that similar furin cleavage sites are found in other coronaviruses that infect animals, so this is not a proof of virus engineering it's really something that can occur naturally Yes like the flu So this change to the website This has got to be concerning for you, doctor. Okay so CBS News reports the Trump administration actually replaced government websites with simplified messaging focused on the lab leak

2:41:21 theory. Is that concerning? Well, it is concerning because public health... Should you be concerned? It's very concerning! Communication should really be grounded in facts and science questions even but not politics and replacing nuanced scientific content with a single unproven narrative is really misleading to the public It does undermine trust in government guidance. And so if you have another pandemic or other crisis hit, you want the public to feel like they can trust the information they're being given and this really does undermine that trust. That train left the station years ago lady nobody trusts the government no more uh-uh that's all over

2:42:03 Even Australia was just blown away by this. And US President Donald Trump has sensationally transformed a government website that once contained resources for COVID-19 and he's turned it into a promotional page for the lab leak theory. no longer holds info on vaccines, testing treatments but instead traces the virus to Wuhan in China and accuses key public figures there of pushing a preferred narrative. To tell us more about this we're joined by political scientist Simon Jackman in studio. Simon good to see you as always! Thank You What are some of the big claims being made on this site right now? Well it revives the so-called lab leak thesis number one and particularly goes very hard... Hold on a second

2:42:46 I thought that we already transferred to the lab leak thesis over a year ago. No, people don't... How do you revive something that is the standard thesis? It's not this is... What are these guys trying to do here rewrite history? Gaslight! Gaslight of course but for what end well because Australia was one of the most locked down countries in the world. They can't, the mainstream, M5M, government they cannot admit that they were wrong in any aspect of this because then people might try and kill them or whatever yeah okay yeah doesn't that make sense yes I think it does against people

2:43:33 people who were in the Biden administration and indeed in some cases in Trump Mark 1 charged with taking care of this pandemic. Yes, Trump Mark one. I like mark one too. with taking care of this pandemic, Dr. Fauci in particular it goes very hard at him it goes very hard to people working alongside and indeed anybody who was running I think public health at the time you see what he's talking about? haha we were laughing because anyone who is running public health at the time the mainstream media was part of public health at that time thats why hes laughing don't come and kill me Aussies

2:44:16 It goes very hard at people working alongside, and indeed anybody who was running public health at the time come in for a serve there. They have essentially taken a report by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives and put that up all almost in its entirety as now, as we said in the intro there. That is what the US government is putting forward with respect to information about COVID now never mind the fact that hundreds of people a week across United States are still dying from COVID. Still dying from COVID! Or with COVID or of COVID? What was it? People are dying... He said from. Yeah. So hundreds a week are now still dying from COVID. From COVID yes

2:45:01 They are? Well, people die from pneumonia. Yes hundreds of die from pneumonia from... That's not COVID! No of course not people didn't they died with COVID we all know We were there. We are NOT going to let the M5M change our mind A note from the constitutional lawyer Rob Adam life imitates no agenda Y'all have discussed all the ozempic marketing, the efforts to get it covered by insurance... ...the health risks that these drugs entail and the abject lack of transparency shrouding the whole operation. You even talked about ozonepic-induced blindness Well now there's a lawsuit in New Jersey claiming that ozempic made a woman go blind By inducing a condition called non-arteretic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy

2:45:55 Ischemic. Ischemic? I think, not sure. It's ISCH isn't it? Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy or NION. According to the lawsuit NION happens suddenly often when people wake up blind in one eye! It is irreversible and 15% of the time it spreads to the other eye According to the lawsuit, Novo Nordisk had a lot of evidence linking Ozempic to Nyon but failed to warn anyone.

2:46:35 At the same time, Novo Nordisk was spending hundreds of millions of dollars to have obesity classified as a disease... ...to ingrain these drugs into the pop culture zeitgeist and get private insurers to cover the drug. I say again life imitates no agenda." Yes we have warned for this because we read stuff. Yeah that takes a genius! But here is the worst And Sharon Osbourne apparently has this new side effect known as ozempic feet. Oh, this is new? Yes it is! You have my attention. Ozempic feet gnarly side effect of weight loss drug exhibited by some celebs yes so apparently your your feet go all curled up and your toes curl you can't uncurl them and they have pictures

2:47:34 Sharon Osbourne apparently with COVID feet. So yeah, it just looks like your toes are cut off because they're all curled underneath You can't stretch them back and stretch them back in an issue Yeah Yes Fans noticed Osborne 72 had wrinkly feet the said the fans speculated could be a result of her ozempic usage She walking around barefoot what are they talking about? Yeah, there's pictures of her on the couch This cannot be a good product. I don't think so! It just can't be a good product, i don't feel like it's a good product but that doesn't matter because There's help on the horizon.

2:48:35 Maybe another option similar to Ozempic and other popular injectable drugs, but without refrigeration or injections necessary. Joining us now with more on this is endocrinologist and obesity expert Dr. Rekha Kumar. Doctor thanks for taking the time we know that the common GLP-1s are administered with an injection how does this pill work? And why is it different So this pill is different because it can just be swallowed. It doesn't matter with food, without food, with water or without water. The current GLP-1 that's oral that's on the market, ribelsis has a lot of stipulations around food and only four sips of water so this is different because it's a daily pill versus a weekly injection time of day doesn't matter and we're seeing results that appear to be

2:49:24 basically as good as the injectables that we have on the market. I mean, we're finally here! It's about time... Yeah, eat all the junk you want doesn't matter if it comes in a bag has a barcode You can have the pill with the junk. You don't need four sips of water. Swallow it with your milkshake this is this my friends is what America is all about. This is what we do." What exactly did this trial study show and are there any side effects patients should be concerned about when it comes to this new pill? Well, yes you've got the COVID gnarly feet you've got the blindness you've got the anal leakage but don't worry! So what this trial showed was that this medicine was great at lowering blood sugar as well as... They actually said it's great

2:50:12 What study says, hey this is great. Reducing body weight it was a 16 pound weight loss at 40 weeks which is tracking to look like the weight loss we see in Ozempic, Wego-V, a little bit under Mujaro and the fact that this doesn't require refrigeration... Wait wait Manjaro did better. Manjaro outperformed everybody! It sounds like it. This is news to me. Yeah, I didn't know it either. If you're going to go for the shot, Manjaro's the way to go. And the fact that this doesn't require refrigeration and can be taken by mouth is great for people who might have an aversion to pills or injections so it offers another option. It's just another option

2:51:00 You know, I am not a medical doctor. We are not giving you any advice but stay away from this stuff people! This can't be good. So while we're on the topic of ingesting poison... Fluoride? I have a fluoride series of clips from PBS that i thought were quite fascinating Because they brought somebody on to re-promote fluoridation because all of a sudden, you know we're having these issues some states are dropping it. Was it a representative from Alcoa? The aluminum producer? No I don't think so but that you... We didn't look..I didn't do any deep dive into her background but she's obviously astute and she wouldn't answer one question which is the... By the way this has been going on networks everywhere. I wanted to clip some other stuff so I'm glad you had it

2:51:56 There are pro-fluoride people out on all the networks right now. Everywhere, alright this is from... Well let's stop right there because the reason is fluoride is a industrial waste and they don't know what to do with it I mean they're gonna have to take it out drop it off in the middle of the ocean or something right now because it doesn't smell good but here so we want to reintroduce into the drinking water that'll get rid of it And so let's bring in some experts here. Now they actually, I have to give the credit to the guy on PBS here because he actually...actually, actually, actually, he does

2:52:35 Repeat a question twice that she never answers. He doesn't keep beating her up with it, which I would have done but you'll hear Earlier this month Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr announced plans to end the federal recommendation that municipalities add fluoride to their drinking water The Environmental Protection Agency also said it was reviewing quote new scientific information about the risks of fluoridation Given this renewed debate, we wanted to hear one perspective from a community that did remove fluoride from its water. The Canadian city of Calgary Earlier this week I spoke to Lindsay McLaren She's a professor of Community Health Sciences at the University of Calgary and I began by asking her why we started fluoridating water in the first place

2:53:25 In regions of the United States and elsewhere, it was observed by local dentists. This was back in the 1940's that people living in certain communities had kind of a staining of their teeth But their teeth also turned out to be quite resistant to tooth decay. And so, it was figured out that this was because of naturally high levels of fluoride in the drinking water And so that gave rise to the idea that we could actually do this intentionally and as a in a controlled manner as the public health intervention, to improve the oral health of the population. We mentioned that some people have cited risks associated with this practice and the current

2:54:12 HHS Secretary in the United States, RFK Jr., he had a recent visit to the state of Utah. Utah itself became the first state to ban fluoride in its water here's what he said there. In an era of fluoridated toothpastes and mouthwashes it makes no sense to have fluoride in our water The evidence against fluoride is overwhelming. In animals, in animal models and in human models we know that it causes IQ loss. Huh? What? Causes what? IQ loss. Oh I'm sorry who? I'm pertaining to have been drinking the water. So...oh

2:54:58 So, okay so that's the key that he wants you know let's get rid of fluoride because it's not good for our intelligence we're all dumbing down. So let's continue this these clips and see what she has to say about this. So what about those arguments? One that in the era of heavily fluoridated toothpaste we don't need to add it to our water and two Are there studies indicating that it causes IQ loss? So the point about being in the era of widespread fluoride toothpaste is a good one, but research and systematic reviews of research that have been conducted in this era consistently show that there is an added benefit of fluoridated water above and beyond the widespread use of toothpaste. And then what about the studies he cited about IQ loss

2:55:47 Yeah, what about them? So yeah he has to re-ask the question because she didn't answer it. Right... Do you think she's gonna answer it this time after he asked again? I'm guessing not maybe deflect deny and defend I think you're right. And then what about the studies that he cited about IQ loss? The main thing to say there is that it's really not at all clear that fluoridation is associated with those outcomes at the levels we are talking about for community water fluoridation, There are many examples of things that are harmful or toxic at high levels but that are innocuous and even beneficial at lower levels

2:56:29 Hey man, what are you complaining about? Lots of stuff that we put in the water is toxic. Okay but it can also be good for ya! So turning to your experience... In 2011 the Calgary City Council voted to remove fluoride from its water You launched a study then as to what the downstream impacts of that was What is it that you found So we designed a large-scale study where we collected data on oral health and a number of other things from several thousand kids in both Calgary, where fluoridation was stopped and in Edmonton which is the other large city in Alberta. Which has several similarities to Calgary

2:57:11 with the main difference being that they had fluoridation in place and it was continuing. About seven to eight years after the decision to stop fluoridation in Calgary, we observed quite a big difference in the prevalence of tooth decay among kids in the two cities. A big difference! Oh okay... Big difference! What was the big difference? It's a big difference. It's a big difference Well, what would you guess wait a minute so they had two cities one had fluoridated water one had no fluoridated water and They noticed the big difference I guess much better teeth health in the in the fluoridated city I'm going to say like 90% better

2:57:58 That's a guess. I think that's kind of the implication, yeah it'd be like 90 to 100 percent better, yeah. Okay All right. Do we reveal all in this last clip? Yes, we do except for the brain damage part she's still talking about that Oh the percent of kids who had tooth decay in Calgary where there was no fluoride Was 65% whereas in Edmonton where Fluoridation remains in place it was about 55% 10 a ten percent difference that's big Whoa, that's a big difference. Big difference! There is huge difference 55 versus 65 Versus 65 That's a huge monstrous difference that we should all you know risk our mental health for okay So what decade later voters there voted to put fluoride back in And he doesn't at any point say that's not such a big different is it doctor or whatever his name and whatever title is farm lady

2:58:59 Professor. So a decade later, voters there voted to put fluoride back into the water that has not happened yet so does your experience their help inform how Americans ought to be thinking about this decision? Certainly in the Calgary case, we were fortunate to be able to build this study and demonstrate that there are consequences to removing fluoride from drinking water. It's not just an innocuous policy decision. And so that information I think figured importantly in the decision to reintroduce

2:59:38 the measure, which should be happening soon. What I think I would also want to add here is that if you decide as a community if you have kind of a grown-up conversation and decide as a community not to fluoridate the water that is one thing but you have to accompany that by discussion about what are you going to do instead because tooth decay is not an innocuous health problem, it's a serious health problem. It's very common and perhaps most importantly it's almost entirely preventable And so what kind of society are we if we don't prevent an entirely preventable problem that causes harm and pain? So then he went right back and said but how about the IQ issue? She answered the question in the final clip

3:00:26 No, but no of course not. He didn't beat it up anymore But let's go back to what she just said it's in 55% In the in the fluoridated area versus 65 percent in the non-fluoridated area that is not Preventing anything so much completely preventive She says could do decay is complete she said this completely preventable How is 55% complete? It's not even half, it's more than half people getting it with the fluoride. How does that make fluoride and make it preventable? This is unbelievable to me. Here's the thing that Robert F Kennedy Jr needs to explain The history of... And they just call it fluoride but its really hydrofluoroacetic acid I believe

3:01:23 which is released during strip mining, phosphate mining. And they used to just release this fluoride into the air but it was in the 1970s I think The Department of Agriculture said airborne fluoride is causing damage to domestic animals, it's crops. It's an airborne pollutant so they came up with environmental regulations this is all you can look this up chat GPT at these companies had to limit their airborne pollutants. So they were being caught in air filtration systems which they then condensed into a water-based solution, they packaged that up and sold it to municipal governments! That's what happened

3:02:15 They needed to get rid of this stuff for the phosphate mining and they just came up with this great story. And even my periodontist, I told you the story." Oh yeah? He was like, where do you stand on fluoride? Don't put it in your water! That's not true it saves so many children...and then once he started looking into it which he never did because it was just rammed into his head in dentist school They said, holy crap you're right. This is no good You can get fluoride just as Bobby the op says you can get it from toothpaste. You can get it with Mouthwash you can your dentist's can put it on your teeth directly which has probably the best way Yes, you can get it in that nice tray with a nice tropical fruit taste That is remember do you remember that when we didn't put the fluoride?

3:03:05 Oh God, I used to hate that. I don't think they do that anymore You get these two trays Okay boomer and you be sitting there and then this tropical fruit taste would be dripping in the back of your throat make y'all nauseous Yeah And and of course for me the the kicker was when I read Legacy of ashes the CIA story written by Weiner, Daniel Weiner I want to say. And Uncle Don was in that book everywhere and I called Uncle Don he said is this true? He says yeah it's the way I remember it and what was in the book It says the CIA would put fluoride into enemy water camps so they become nice and docile So they could take over the camp at night But then this is PBS! I guarantee you Alcoa has some kind of sponsorship with PBS because Alcoa did a lot of this

3:04:01 People should just listen to the no agenda show and live longer. No, let's hope so Oh Man I think that was the last clip. Yeah, that was the last clip okay? We are beyond our oh Time's up time is up So I will have two clips they're reasonably short manga manga everybody Make Africa news great again, I have a 45 second Africa News clip. The 2022 US-Africa summit was meant to usher in a reset in ties between Washington and the continent when Joe Biden was meant to repair the harm done by Trump 1.0 just over two years in those plans are being ripped apart In a further sign that Africa barely features in Trump's foreign policy Washington is preparing to close several embassies on the continent

3:04:57 according to reporting by the New York Times. The report says missions in Lesotho, Eritrea, the Central African Republic, the Republic of Congo, Gambia and South Sudan topped the list for those facing closure. The news comes on the back of sudden aid cuts to health and other social programs trade tariffs and visa bans imposed on over a dozen countries So we are giving up on Africa as you predicted It's all about North Pole, South America. Africa no longer matters we're pulling out our embassies which means no more spies We're just done? Do we just leave it to the Chinese? Yeah Is that a good idea? Dude, we are going to do South America Which is better? The Chinese have already taken over Africa and they are gonna try take over South America and we have to stop them That's where we stop them. We can't deal with Africa

3:05:54 And then finally, Canadian news. As Canadians prepare to go to the polls on the 28th of April current Prime Minister and Liberal candidate Mark Carney presented himself as a strong man to lead Canada against hostile neighbor to the south Donald Trump is trying fundamentally change world economy trading system but really what he's trying do to Canada is try break us so US can own us This is gonna be a great election. They want our land, they want our resources, they want our water... We want your women! They want our country and we're all going to stand up against Donald Trump. Oh yeah, oh yeah. You sure? I'm ready the

3:06:50 economically vulnerable, a vulnerability conservative challenger Pierre Poullier blames on the incumbent. We claim that you want our country to respond with strength but after the last decade half of which time you've been Justin Trudeau's economic advisor our economy is weaker than ever before it has been worse growth in G7 Since the liberals scraped victory in 2021 general election The Conservative opposition have mostly dominated in the polls But Donald Trump trade war has turned tables putting the incumbent Liberals out in front for the first time since 2022. Poor Canada, I feel bad Why would you feel bad? Because they know that it's partially true It's not like we want to really own Canada but parts of it will be handy to have and parts of it I think wanna be part of America It's not like one giant country that all thinks the same

3:07:49 Because I make jokes to Canadians all the time, it's like you know you'll be a 51st state. Half of them go that would be awesome! The other half goes Trump...Trump...Trump...Trump Yeah i don't know but if we keep this we're a real problem economically speaking with what's happening now so what are their choices? What can they do is it fait accompli ? They should They should get their act together.

3:08:36 Well, while Canada's getting their act together... I knew you were fishing for something. I was thinking what can i do here? Why why do you have to blow the whole thing no one needs to know our secret signals it's like okay let me think of something insulting or some one-liner I'm thinking in myself yeah what can I say here I got not leading down the right path hearing over 17 years of professional colleagues working together knowing exactly how we live, breathe and do our show. It's a beautiful thing but then you had to go and lift the veil... No! You gotta lift the veil well you do it all the time I do Hey John is going to thank our supporters $50 and above who supported us for episode 1757 Nathan Cochran starts us off he's in Franklin Tennessee and he came with 1 2 3 4 5 He's one of your boys he's from Mercy Me

Do you have any do even have any eyes? Oh, so you know said your one it was last night one one ISO Yeah, one one. I'm dead. I'm using the one on This is the way it's gonna be from now on. If you have nothing, because you've been picking your own every time... So if you have nothing the one will back you up and you'll have a good one I have four

3:24:16 Yeah, you always have. Well you have four today and three in the... I'm gonna hold yours. Here we go here's my first This is the best podcast in the universe! That was pretty bad. That's YOU! No that was not me. There's another one I picked up Happy Easter to you and all out there listening. That theory has been debunked No, I think that...I really do have one that is worth it. It's this one. Oh man the show is over! Yeah come on. That sounds like AI to me. No that's a kid. Oh man the show is over! Thats not an AI thats a real kid. Play mine The show was magnifico. I don't know man. Oh man the shows over

3:25:05 Give it to the kid. We give it to the kid! John, you are such a mensch thank you very much and now everybody its time for John's tip of the day. So my tip of the day is not to buy a B-Link It's an anti-tip of the day. So what I did was, hold on a second even though we didn't have official tips of the day without a doubt Blink at one point would have been a tip of the day you were telling everybody oh you got to get the Blink it's great Well its cheap little computer that works until it doesn't

3:25:52 And so, but I mean I'm still just hanging in there. But I decide that I am going to run Linux on this thing and see if i can do it. But then I said well you know what? I want to run live Linux. Oh Lou! So just stick in that USB stick and make a RUN!!! So you gotta get in, okay if you wanna run a live anything. You get the ISO which is the... Yeah, the image. ISO stands for something and I don't remember what. Image something? Is it the image of the disk? Of the disk yes. It's a disk image. But you want to make it bootable and so you wanna make a live version like for example I have an ISO of Linux that I could run Mint

3:26:36 Mint Linux, I think it's up to version 24 or something. It's ridiculous They still haven't got any good audio stuff which is weird Don't get me started one if you want to you need to get a copy of this This is a handy product anyway. It's called Balena etcher Oh yes well and anyone who has ever made alive linux USB has as a copy of balina etcher So that's my tip of the day. Get a copy of Bellina Etcher, make it live for USBs... It also burn a disk but it is for making live USBs which is the easiest way to do it You know what's great? I'm gonna add to your tip you can actually then take your computer with you and wherever you are you just say hey can I just borrow your computer bam! You jack that stick in there you change the boot order and there's your computer back

3:27:26 Works every... Well, first of all you have to go into the guy's system and change the boot order. Yeah you just ram F4 a lot. Which is insulting! It's not insulting? Maybe it's not insulting but yes you can do exactly what Adam said yeah but Bellina Etcher is the way to make these uh is the best way at least currently there's other systems that do this I had used something else before but it's a good way too but you want these live these live, and it's called live because it boots from the little stick. You don't have to install it on the machine because of... Yeah? I was going to say what is the advantage of using a live according to you as the tip monster That way when you take this stick out then it goes back to the old operating system. You still have everything, all your old stuff intact So what happened to your B-Link that you decided to go this way

3:28:21 I'm getting a story, whether it's the B-Link itself probably not the B-Link itself as opposed to the SSD that is failing. Yes so what you're saying this is a tip when your crappy old machine craps out you can still bring it back to life with a live Linux USB? Yeah or you could run Windows off of the little USB too if you wanted to No no Is there live Windows You can make it with you can make a live windows if you want whatever you do don't make a live window stick people get your ballena etcher That's what you want. That is John C. Dvorak tip of the day go to tipoftheday.net no agenda fun Well we have quite the bonanza coming up on the livestream

With the seed, with the seed right into the vein. Right into the vein.

3:31:22 And we're taking things that are genetically modified organisms and we're injecting them into little kids arms. We just shoot right into the vein, we just shoot, just shoot right into the vein We just shoot right into the vein. We just shoot, we just shoot right into the vein. Right into the vein! There's nothing embarrassing about a hen laying an egg and you'd better lay one or it's your neck! I give them the old needle once in awhile. I love eggs! Egg prices are continuing to soar The cost of eggs has been soaring across the country High costs of eggs

3:32:04 So what's behind eggflation? Pathogenic, Adenine Influenza. More commonly known as bird flu The worst bird flu outbreak in years that has just swept through the country Tens of millions of birds have died or been slaughtered Bird Flu has reduced the egg laying hen population by more than 40 million Forty million! That's astounding to think about that Looks like eggs are the new toilet paper It's extremely bad news. You might want to consider alternatives This is an egg replacement item These chickens that were laying eggs, those are mature hens right? So we don't get a mature hen overnight It takes some time for a chick who hatches out of an egg to be ready This could be lasting us into the summer Can I offer you a nice egg in this trying time? Yeah he's got it now!
