Donald Trump, Cyril Ramaphosa Oval Office Meeting Ambush

Donald Trump met with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa in the Oval Office, an event characterized by mainstream media outlets as a "cinematic ambush." Outlets including CNN, MSNBC, and the BBC utilized synchronized terminology to criticize Trump's presentation of videos regarding violence against Afrikaner farmers. The media narrative focused on the racial dynamics of a white U.S. president lecturing a black South African leader.

00:00 Come on kids, let's do a show! It's always so disappointing when

00:37 When a producer sends us the same clip and then I'm like, oh John didn't reply to it or maybe he didn't see it. I got it! It's my clip! And then you send bonus clips. You're talking about The Ambush? Of course I am talking about The Ambush. It is beautiful Whoever made that we're into we're gonna talk about this what we're gonna talk about is the meeting between Trump and the Prime Minister of South Africa And then media's jumping all over Trump. Just I have the CBS clips, I think are worse it's as if there is Whatever the president our president of our United States does is no good? No and everybody else is better

01:26 Well, first of all... So I don't know what the media wonders why it keeps losing credibility. It doesn't even support its own country that is in. It hates America! I just love that we have actual African news that people are interested in We've been pushing for this for years. Yeah, we have. Fine! Okay it's South Africa all right? It's not... Who cares?! It's not the jungle but you know... Talking about this white, whether its a genocide or not but the movement against the white farmers and I have clips here that are six years old

02:06 Oh yeah, oh yeah. Report done by TRT the Turkish service This is not new Let me kick this off with a BBC report and then you can take it from there Why has this issue of alleged violence against the Afrikaner community in South Africa become such a central theme for President Trump? He was talking about this in his first term and looking at the possibility of giving refugee status to Afrikaners, but it's only now that we're seeing that he is really going for it. I don't think its a coincidence that his close friend and close ally Elon Musk

02:43 It's all because of Elon. That is why Trump is dumb! He doesn't look at anything himself. This is a self-contradictory report, which is something you can expect. She says he tried to do this in the first term. Elon wasn't around! No... It's great So if Elon wasn't around during the first term what makes it any different? Nothing, nothing. They're beside themselves I'll do one more this is a CNN... No do as many as you want there's a lot of good material here that people need to hear Well this kind of kicks off the supercut This is Anderson Cooper, The Pooper 360 with Cornell Brooks Professor Brooks? What mess up- I'm sorry

03:37 Professor Brooks. Professor Brooks, I mean what message do you think it sends to America and the world when the white US president lectures a black South African president? White! White! Black! Black! White! White! And on television about a genocide of which is not happening. It's not happening! Not happening! Not happening?! I said so... He sends a message that the President is continuing to rewrite history and in so doing, also dramatically and disastrously impact the president. So in other words what we had in the White House today was a cinematic ambush if you will. Did he say cinematic ambush? That's a show title.

04:30 of 110 years ago when President Woodrow Wilson showed a film called The Birth of the Nation, which was the film that glorified the Klan. Oh yeah? Oh it's The Birth of the Nation about Africa? No this is... It's synonymous you see because President Trump is racist. the

05:25 a bad and terrible in this country. He's globalizing and exporting in ways that are detrimental to the interests of the United States." Wow, that's-that's a professor right there! And he introduced the term? It was my first My first taste of the ambush, shall we play the supercut? Yeah there's a supercut floating around of all these different... mostly on CNN and MSNBC of course. But every other networks too including ABC. BBC as well I didn't clip it but i saw BBC do it yep It's worldwide baby!

06:00 to to be with you. I'm Katie Turr, President Trump orchestrated another Oval Office ambush today. Today Donald Trump meeting with the president of South Africa and attempting to ambush and humiliate that leader. Zelensky territory where essentially he was a bit ambushed inside the Oval Office. Felt like an ambush in there, kind of like the President Zelensky meeting in the Oval Office This was an ambush it was orchestrated. Errol Ramaphosa brought his best diplomatic self to this meeting but nothing could have prepared him for this multimedia ambush What started as...to some degree an ambush Well Katie I mean it wasn't ambushed Ambushed Ambushed Ambushed An ambush! Ambushing Ambushed Inside The Oval Office

07:01 It was an ambush, I tell you. An ambush! My goodness...I wish I had this one when I was talking to the kids about propaganda It's gonna been a good one. Good ambush. Why don't you roll out your CBS clips that you got? I've got a couple of CBS clips here, this is the... they did the whole first of the show Well, of course But I just only have three short clips from the beginning just to emphasize some of the use of loaded terms very unjournalistic professionally, I think loaded wordage put out in such a way that is slanted, anti-Trump which seems to me to be... Hello. ...a very sketchy thing to do right now since CBS is still under duress over the lawsuit, over 60 Minute Lawsuit which is hurting their you know they're getting bought out but they don't care let's hear what we got this say here from

07:59 For more than a century, the Oval Office has been the scene of dignified diplomatic exchanges. At what point did you not know President Trump was in the Oval Office and things have changed? Between the president of United States and other world leaders. But President Trump has turned the oval into a ring for sparring with them including the president of Ukraine, the prime minister of Canada and now the president of South Africa Mr. Trump sprung fifth just weeks after signing an executive order suspending America's refugee admission program. Deborah Pata is in South Africa and is South African, we will hear from her in a moment but we begin with Weijia Zhang at the White House

08:58 Good evening. For months, President Trump has accused South Africa of condoning genocide even cutting off all US assistance to the country back in March today The South African president was hoping to reset the relationship but Trump had a different plan Yeah he was ready for an ambush He was hiding out ready to go Ready to do it Ready, ready, ready. He's ready. He don't care because he is making a mockery of you. He turned the oval into ring. Yes Nobody... these networks do not see any humor in this course I love the whole turn the lights down Yeah I'm gonna play you video how old is that video actually?

09:44 Well, the one that he showed a bunch of videos and they don't really discuss the videos. They just kind of say they were bull crap Oh yeah But they don't play any of Malema which is the main guy we're talking about here The ANC guy No no he's an EFF guy He's the economic freedom fighters. He is the third most popular or fourth depending on what numbers you look at Most popular party in the country Julius, Julius I think. Julius, not to be confused with Electronic Frontier Foundation But it could easily be. Easily! This guy is a genocidal maniac and I have clips from him from various years, and he was singing this kill the boar kill the farmer kill the boar kill the farmer which is one of the videos they showed and CBS didn't even mention or play any of that because

CHAPTER 02 / 53 Discussion

South African Land Expropriation, White Farmer Genocide Claims

President Cyril Ramaphosa denied claims of a genocide against white South African farmers during his Washington visit, attributing the violence to general criminality. While Ramaphosa defended laws allowing land expropriation for public use, critics point to the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and leader Julius Malema as drivers of genocidal rhetoric. Trump utilized a television in the Oval Office to show videos of alleged executions of farmers to the South African delegation.

south africa· cyril ramaphosa· land reform· white farmers· genocide· anc· eff· julius malema

10:42 take away from the slant that they have. And we'll have some more evidence of that in the next clip. Ramaphosa acknowledged a law that allows his government to expropriate land for public use with compensation, but he insisted white farmers are not being targeted and do allow them to take nobody can take their land. They kill the white farmer and when they kill the white farmer nothing happens to them. No, there is Nothing happens that is criminality in our country. So he says this guy the prime minister says where there's a lot of criminality, but it's not like directed necessarily just at whites There was something that she said I tried to make some common on its way cut it play play the next clip The meeting started with a friendly jab from President Trump He is a man who is

11:33 Certainly in some circles really respected, other circles a little bit less respected like always. But when South African President Cyril Ramaphosa denied Trump's accusations his administration is allowing genocide Trump was prepared to push back Turn the lights down and just put this on. It's right behind you On a television brought into the Oval Office for this very moment, the president showed videos peddling unsubstantiated claims of genocide against white South African farmers Those people in many cases are being executed

12:12 Yeah. I have a boots on the ground, i don't know if you want it yet or if you want to play some of your other clips first? Well we can go with boots...I have a boots on the ground too which one's yours from JB mine is from MD You play uh read yours just let me remind everybody unlike other podcasts where it's just a bunch of dudes sitting around with the headphones on, shooting the breeze. Cans on their heads! Unlike the mainstream media who just have a mission and a narrative we have producers who are all around the world which we affectionately call Gitmo Nation and I did a call out and said Var Samasat Afrikaners and we both independently apparently got boots-on-the-ground report John C. de Boracki Report Go

CHAPTER 03 / 53 Discussion

South African Squatting Laws, Corporate Labor Quotas

A producer report details the difficulties of operating a publicly traded tea company in South Africa due to extreme squatting laws and racial labor quotas. The account describes instances where individuals could claim ownership of guest houses simply by occupying them for a few days, leading to high legal costs for the original owners. These policies, alongside mandatory black ownership percentages, are compared to the restrictive business environment in China.

south africa· squatting laws· labor quotas· tea industry· property rights· china

13:04 Yes from Matthew. About eight years ago I did accounting for a publicly traded company growing tea in South Africa, I learned from their CEO that if a black person goes into a white person's home and stays there for a day or two the white owner while the white owners away the house belongs to the black person! Yay! If it then takes thousands and thousands of dollars of legal expenses to remove them, South Africa is way ahead of California in squatting laws. They told me a story about a huge black woman who moved into her guest house on the

13:39 on the tea farm and would not leave. Her only English phrase was, dis my house! At the time I thought this was hilarious. The company had to leave South Africa because they had to hire a quota of black workers and the laws kept getting worse for their white owners. Also I recall the ownership of the business had to be partially owned by a black person It's kind of like China, actually. Yes very much like China There is a black South African group that got ownership rights and was paid to do nothing it's always about the money in the end The South African story has legs Ah! Okay so I have a little more expanded story but along the similar lines this is from JB who says and you'll recall the clip when his opening starts with being a white neo-nazi adjacent South African

CHAPTER 04 / 53 Discussion

ANC Government Corruption, Iran Nuclear Technology Ties

The African National Congress (ANC) is accused of selling South African interests to the highest bidder, specifically accepting funds from Iran in exchange for nuclear technology and legal maneuvers against Israel at the International Court of Justice. High murder rates and a failing infrastructure, including a nearly grounded Air Force, have forced civil organizations like AfriForum to provide basic state services. The South African government reportedly felt humiliated by the unexpected turn of the trade talks in Washington.

anc· south africa· iran· nuclear technology· icj· israel· afriforum· cyril ramaphosa

14:34 Of course, we had the clip of that professor. I thought it may be best place to provide a boots on the ground of the current situation in South Africa. The famous saying goes, the problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money. This very much applies The ANC government is no longer the Soviet-trained freedom fighters the world remembers them as. There's absolutely nothing they have not stolen or broken in their 30 years in power, they have now finally run out of other people's money and are now selling themselves and the country to the highest bidder." The consensus while not proven Is that in order to stay solvents they are accepting large sums of money from Iran

15:16 in return for nuclear technology and political favors such as taking Israel to the International Court of Justice. This, of course makes them a direct enemy of the United States It is my opinion that the refugee status offered to Afrikaners is actually a political message to let the ANC government know, The US are not f-ing around. Should the Afrikaner's all leave, the economy will be completely destroyed Not because they own all of land which is complete disinformation But rather because 30 years of terrible state education has left a large majority Of the black population unemployable and completely unequipped To build an economy

15:56 You'll remember the Afrikaners left Europe a long time ago because they are incredibly self-sufficient people who will not be walked over. It is also largely consensus in the country, there is no white genocide happening. We have one of the highest murder rates as well as one of the highest unemployment rates in the world this has caused a massive violent crime problem fueled by the resentment of massive inequality sound familiar? The police force is completely unable to stop any crime due to large-scale state corruption As an example our Air Force has only three working planes Due to the complete failures of the state, civil organizations like AfriForum have had to step in and fill the gaps where the state cannot provide. To round this off racism is always the go-to for both MSNBC and the ANC It allows them to paint AfriForum as the enemy And justify absolutely insane laws which make it borderline illegal for me to have a job under the banner of transformation and equality

16:59 What we are watching is the end of an incredibly racist, corrupt useless and now bankrupt regime. Our president even hides his US dollars in his couch I feel very important to add one additional note after our very own Zelensky moment in the White House. Yes, our government is exactly that stupid! They honestly thought they were going to talk about trade and had no idea they were walking into such a lovely humiliation The rest of us back home expected exactly this and are very chuffed We already owe a debt of gratitude to this administration JB white neo-nazi adjacent South Afrikaner

Douglas McGregor, South Africa Punishment Theory

Colonel Douglas McGregor suggested that Donald Trump's aggressive stance toward the South African delegation was a direct punishment for South Africa's legal actions against Israel in international courts. This theory posits that the "ambush" was a calculated geopolitical response to South Africa's alignment with Iranian interests and its hostility toward Israel.

douglas mcgregor· scott ritter· south africa· israel· icc· donald trump

17:38 That sounds true to me. Remember how weird that was? That they took Israel to the ICC Yes, and in fact i don't have a clip of this...I've got enough clips, I don't need this one...of McGregor The guy Douglas McGregor, the Colonel or whatever. Yeah that guy who's all over the place Kind of the Scott Ritter type of a guy He says that the only reason that Trump did all this is because South Africa went after Israel in the criminal court and he's doing it to punish them Well its definitely part of it

18:20 Well, there's an element. But the Iran thing is interesting is that if they're taking money from Iran then yeah They are a huge problem and that sounds completely believable Yeah it does so thank you Gitmo Nation producers All right, what else you got here? So we have a bunch of clips. I have a series of South African clips as the Trump versus South Africa that NPR kind of an overview. We can play that President Trump's face to face with his guests today. South African president Cyril Ramaphosa took a widely unexpected turn today in the Oval Office

CHAPTER 06 / 53 Discussion

Donald Trump, NBC Reporter Peter Alexander Jet Dispute

Donald Trump engaged in a heated exchange with an NBC reporter, identified as Peter Alexander, after being questioned about a luxury airplane gifted by Qatar to the U.S. Air Force. Trump labeled the reporter "terrible" and "not smart enough," defending the gift as part of a larger $5.1 trillion investment package. Trump further called for an investigation into Comcast CEO Brian Roberts and the management of NBC.

donald trump· nbc news· peter alexander· qatar· air force· brian roberts· comcast

18:57 And Pierce Daniel, Kurt Slaben explains. While the Oval Office meeting began cordially it grew hostile when Trump repeated false false false claims of white genocide at one point Trump paused the meeting to show the room a four and half minute video promoting the idea that white South African farmers are being targeted I must tell you Mr President we have had tremendous number people especially since they've seen this generally they're white farmers and they're fleeing South Africa. And it's a very sad thing to see." South African President Ramaphosa pushed back against Trumps claims, also stressing that he wanted to quote, reset the relationship between the United States and South Africa It wasn't the only topic that angered the president. Trump also repeatedly insulted a reporter from NBC when he asked the president about his administration accepting a luxury airplane as gift from Qatar

19:49 Danielle Kurtzleben, NPR News. Later, he says all out of the blue Trump says yeah unlike this idiot over here from NBC I don't have that one. Here's a that was the funnier one here we go What are you talking about? You know what does this have to do with the guitar jet

20:35 They're giving the United States Air Force a jet, okay? And it's a great thing. We're talking about a lot of other things. This NBC trying to get off the subject of what you just saw. You are really-you know, you're a terrible reporter. Number one, you don't have what it takes to be a reporter and you're not smart enough but But for you to go into a subject about a jet that was given to the United States Air Force, which is a very nice thing. They also gave 5.1 trillion dollars worth of investment in addition to the jet. Go back, you oughta go back to your studio at NBC because Brian Roberts and the people that run that place, they ought to be investigated. They are so terrible the way you run that network and your disgrace no more questions from you. Go ahead talk about that his name is Peter something he's a terrible leader. Quiet! Let's go. Pierre something

CBS CEO Wendy McMahon Resignation, Paramount Lawsuit

CBS CEO Wendy McMahon announced her resignation as parent company Paramount considers settling a lawsuit filed by Donald Trump over a "deceptively edited" 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. Senators have issued warnings that such a settlement could be viewed as a quid pro quo or bribery to influence the incoming administration. The exit of McMahon is seen as a sign that the network is under extreme duress regarding its journalistic integrity.

cbs· wendy mcmahon· paramount· donald trump· 60 minutes· kamala harris· lawsuit

21:36 I don't have the clip, but at one point President Trump said to the South African president, it would be nice to get a jet from you and the guy goes, I don't have a jet to give. I'm sorry it would've been nice but I don't have a jet! This is an awesome show! So he calls out Brian Roberts, the CEO of Comcast. That had to send a shill down his spine! Well if you take into account... where is it here? that this just happened. Tonight, CBS is waving SOS as President Trump takes on the news operation. Its CEO Wendy McMahon says that she's stepping down as the network's parent company Paramount considers settling a lawsuit with Trump over what he claims is a deceptively edited 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris

22:30 McMahon's exit is fueling fear and speculation that a settlement is imminent. Something that senators are now warning amounts to bribery, they say in part if paramount officials make these concessions in a quid pro quo arrangement to influence President Trump or other administration officials they may be breaking the law. Yeah yeah okay all right there you go. Wow, I didn't hear that. It's good! So there is an old TRT, the Turkish operation did a 2019 report on the farmers getting killed

CHAPTER 08 / 53 Discussion

Julius Malema, G20 Sovereignty, Afrikaner Refugee Status

EFF leader Julius Malema criticized President Ramaphosa's attendance at the G20 and his meetings in the United States, warning against compromising South African sovereignty for political expediency. Malema dismissed reports of Afrikaner farmers seeking refugee status in the U.S. as "drama" and "fiction." He suggested that if farmers have indeed abandoned their land, the state should move to expropriate those properties immediately.

julius malema· eff· g20· palestine· israel· afrikaners· south africa

23:11 And I want to play a clip of this is this clip is the SO African woman Farmer got it. I can still At times hear their voices, I can see them I Can see David they separated us and they fought with David until He had nothing left in him he couldn't fight anymore and then you just shot him was David killed because it was white oh The things that they said when I was with him, you being... the word white been thrown around quite a bit. The word black been thrown around a bit and yes, I think it was more because he was white.

23:53 So this is not a new thing. No, it's not even close to being new. So here is the...this guy Molina is the real troublemaker down there and he was in parliament for awhile and he runs the EFF which is...and people should look him up Julius Molina On Wikipedia, his story is unbelievable. The ex-ANC guy, African National Congress... He looks like a guardian angel! Well he's always wearing a red hat and this whole group is always dressed in red They're communists and they're avowed Marxists Yes And they are partly part of the system that's down there that they've established

24:42 I've got a few clips from him. I've got him from 2022 on the radio, I got him recent clip this is short kind of short clip it's hard to understand them on this one but he's talking about the farmers moving to the ones that have Africanas that have come to the USA This is Malima on the farmers coming to the USA If you want them to start treating differently and is going to beg them to attend the G20 He's going to compromise some of the fundamental policies Okay, stop. I gotta set it up better This is a he is commenting on the on the president of South Africa being in the White House now and going there to do the deals And he's condemning him for doing it because you shouldn't leave the country at all and blah blah blah And then he brings out this part as some discussion of the farmers If he wants them to start treating him differently and is going to beg them to attend the G20

25:39 He's going to have to compromise some of the fundamental policies, eh...of this country which were not prepared. If he does that, he must not come back. He must stay there with those 49 Africaners already! He must also stay there because we can't compromise our sovereignty for political expediency We've got positions on Palestine We've got position on the embassy of Israel. We have a resolution of parliament that said, that embassy must leave South Africa is majority in parliament took that decision so you cannot go alone as an executive overruled the position of Parliament if he does that it will be illegal and we're going to fight it there are no Africaners who have been killed here in South Africa it's not true

CHAPTER 09 / 53 Discussion

Julius Malema, Slaughter of White People Comments

Julius Malema refused to pledge that he would never call for the slaughter of white people in South Africa, stating "at least for now" he is not calling for it but cannot guarantee the future. During a 2022 radio interview and subsequent 2019 clips, Malema maintained that farm attacks are mere crimes rather than genocide. He advocated for a Marxist model where the state owns all land and grants long-term leases to citizens.

julius malema· eff· racism· marxism· south africa· land expropriation

26:30 and there are no 49 Afrikaners who left South Africa. You all know that it's a fiction, it's drama you know America with drama is number one That thing is Muvangwa I don't know what is Muvangwa in Africa It's just the drama! I believe they landed and then they waited for cameras took them pictures The next flight back to South Africa If those people are farmers it means there are 49 farms available Why are we not expropriating them because they've abandoned them? That's great. Hey, if they left how come we haven't grabbed their stuff yet?! Yeah it kind of says it all doesn't it? It kind of says it all yeah Well here he is on the radio being called out because of his racism This is Malema 2022 on the radio Now the way a sentence is structured you say We are not calling for the slaughter of white people at least for now

27:29 That means at some future date we may call for the slaughter of white people. Is that correct? Let's deal with that, and that future date I don't know what is going to happen So you're saying you are not ruling out that in the future You may very well call for the slaughter of white people It may no be me Could it be you? It could be me yes but it may have not been me Yes so it could be you. You could At some future dates Call for the slaughter of white people What will necessitate that? You tell me. I don't know, why would you... Why would i do that? You said you could do it in the future is that correct? I can guarantee that I can do it or I won't do it So right now if I asked you to pledge If I asked you to pledge To say I will never call for the slaughter of white people Would you make that pledge? I will do it with ease Make that pledge Why would I do that? I'm asking you to make that pledge and you said I will do it with ease

28:24 Make the pledge. I won't do it! You won't do it? Yes. Ah, understand. That's a bad look... Wow. Wow. Well here he is go back to 2019 and here is Malema making some other comments that are worth noting, and it sounds like oh well that's what going on. And considering he is a Marxist and the other clips we played earlier indicate that South Africans are just selling what they can taking what they can. It's like this socialist thing where you break everybody just okay were out of money now listen to this I've never called for their slaughter I've never called for their killing

29:08 At least for now. I can't guarantee the future! Yeah, but you'd understand somebody watching that they freak out it sounds like a genocidal crybaby's crybabies I'm not calling for the slaughter of white people at least for now I am saying to you Not under my leadership will we call for the slaughter of white people? I don't know who is coming after me They are alarmists They are crybabies They're attention seekers No one is going to slaughter them. The farm attacks are just an act of crime, it's not a genocide on white people who are concerned. Even in the farms there black workers were killed! Should we now be alarmist and say this is genocide of black farm workers? NO! It's a crime! Expropriation of land without compensation tell me what it means to you because it mean lots of things to lots of people... No no, it means very simple

CHAPTER 10 / 53 Discussion

South African Property Rights, Marxist Land Ownership

The South African government's shift toward "expropriation without compensation" is analyzed as a move toward a communist property model where the state holds all titles. This is compared to intellectual property views in China and the Soviet Union, where private ownership is secondary to the "good of the people." An ANC leader defended the policy by claiming that government confiscation is not "stealing" if it is done according to a revised constitution.

marxism· property rights· south africa· anc· china· soviet union· eminent domain

30:07 The state owns the land and then it gives it to you on a long lease. In that way, everyone else will have access to the land. Wow! Well there's your Marxism-Socialism-Communism right there. The kicker right there was the state... Now all of a sudden when did that happen? The state owns the land which is very communist thing I remember this when i went to uh... Soviet Union around the time you did it think and I had warmed up to one of the principles of government he made the point

30:43 And I think this is still in play in China, which is why they have so much trouble with intellectual property. He says he told me he says well the way we see it intellectual property belongs to the people. Yeah And so yeah, okay. So we copied something but it's because it's for the good of the people and that's the way they see it and that would mean the same thing with land ownership. All of a sudden South Africa has become you don't there's no property rights only get to borrow it now That's kind of the case in Hawaii too it to a large extent to for some reason This is the United States Democrat Party's dream

31:20 Yeah. No wonder the news media is... it's eminent domain, we've got eminent domain yeah but that you're supposed to get a fair deal. The eminence domain is different. You're supposed to get money for it Yeah, it's also eminent domain is different. There's compensation for eminent domain in South Africa too they make that point oh yeah no they get money for this and that they don't get money for the confiscated farms. That's different than eminent domain message just a government owns everything. The government owns all the property well I thought that was kind of interesting but this could be just as EFF guy this economic freedom fighter Malema

31:58 But no, in the documentary that the Turks did I have one last clip and this is a clip from a guy from the ANC. The ruling party being confronted by the journalist from Turkey in his house discussing the same thing and he puts it in a different way but its pretty much the same deal. This is the South Africa ANC leader on property rights The minority is now in position of majority of land, almost 85% It's tied to social stability and economic stability of the country with population in urban cities

32:35 which needs a settlement. To some people, expropriation without compensation means stealing without giving you anything for stealing your stuff So tell me why I'm wrong? No, you are wrong because it is not stealing when it's done orderly It is done by the constitution and properly And we are given reasons as to why government must take the property Throughout the world, government use expropriation powers for various purposes. For example to build roads to build health facilities There is an expropriation clause in the constitution of any country Any country? No

33:22 Well, according to him. But the basis for everything going on is largely confiscation they've decided that you don't own the property that you have titles. You will owe nothing and you will be happy? Yes, it's exactly the same! It's exactly what it is well this is a good model to look towards and say no we probably don't want that. That's probably not a good idea. Basically we don't want that now. Don't want that...don't want that all right well keep our eye on it thank you very much President Trump for making Africa News great again we're very pleased with that

Scott Adams, Prostate Cancer Announcement

Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, announced that he has stage 4 prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, mirroring the diagnosis of Joe Biden. Adams suggested his life expectancy may only reach the summer of 2024. While some listeners initially suspected a "hypno trick" or social experiment, Adams' physical condition and slurred speech in recent broadcasts suggest a serious medical decline.

scott adams· prostate cancer· joe biden· dilbert· health announcement

34:00 We have to talk about Biden, this book. Of course the news broke during the last show but something else happened which I know you have clips on so i'm not sure exactly what's in there but I'll just play the 27 seconds of the announcement by Scott Adams Some of you have already guessed So this won't surprise you at all But I've got the same cancer that Joe Biden has So I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones. But I've had it longer than he's had it, well longer than he's admitted having it so my life expectancy is maybe the summer? I'd expect me checking out from this domain sometime in the summer. Okay, so first of all... I'm like wow! That's very shocking and that's very sad. Like I have to be honest with you

34:59 John, my second thought was is this another one of his hypno tricks that he's trying to prove a point? I hate that. I thought that but immediately thought he's why now why is he saying this what is the point He always does strange things with announcements and then says oh I got y'all to think this or got you all To think that did you have that thought at all or is that just me no because I didn't hear if sped up clip like that You just played I've been listening to him live and he sounds like he's on his deathbed, to be honest about it. Oh, I don't think that was sped up... I'm telling you it's not right. Well, I didn't speed it up anyway. But he is uh and I-I'm in contact with him And he is no there's no way I never thought that either. I thought that he might be

35:55 He kind of hints something, the clips I have aren't about him and his announcements. It's about some hints he makes which I thought were the most interesting thing because I suspect... Now Scott had back-and-forth with a lot of different people at the Vaxx. He was pro-Vaxxer big time. And he kind of got in some what denial about it, but I know exactly when it happened. When he realized that he had made a mistake? No no...I don't know if you ever realize he fully made a mistake but I remember when his brain was pushed into direction of allowing himself to

CHAPTER 12 / 53 Discussion

COVID-19 Lab Leak Theory, Jon Stewart, Scott Adams

The evolution of the COVID-19 lab leak theory is revisited, highlighting how figures like Scott Adams initially dismissed the possibility in favor of the "wet market" narrative. Jon Stewart's famous appearance on Stephen Colbert's show is cited as a turning point where the "obvious" connection between the Wuhan virology lab and the outbreak was publicly addressed. Critics argue that early dismissal of the lab leak theory led many to naively trust government vaccine recommendations.

wuhan lab· covid-19· scott adams· jon stewart· stephen colbert· vaccine

36:39 I'm looking for a word, to naively take the vaccine because you think that because the government recommended it. It predates the vaccine by a lot from the early days of COVID. I would watch his show and And I always thought it was very odd that he came to a screwball conclusion. He liked to use the whiteboard and on the whiteboard, he put about the origins of the virus. This is right at the beginning and here's the possibilities. He says... talks about the wet market bull crap. He says there's a wet market in

37:21 wet market there in Wuhan where it came from and then there's a, and people are discussing the Wuhan virology lab that works researches coronaviruses. And he puts them both up on the board and says you have to go with this simple answer. It's obviously the wet market! Wow. Yeah. And when he did that That put his brain into a track that led to getting vaxxed. because that was illogical. In fact, Jon Stewart went on the Colbert Show at least twice and made a war. I remember it! I think we probably have that clip actually Yeah and he made just a big fuss about this saying what are you guys thinking? There's a place to research this is a lab that is known for its lousy security It's right there why aren't you calling this out

38:21 Stuart was beside himself about why people aren't noticing the obvious, which continued till like a couple of years and it's only recently that he finally said okay okay okay it was the lab. I have a 40 second clip. What do you mean by that? Do you mean like there's perhaps, there was a chance this was created in a lab as an investigation A chance?! Well if there is evidence then i'd love to hear it! There's a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking Wuhan China what do we do oh you know who could ask The Wuhan Novel Respiratory Coronavirus Lab The disease Is the same name As the lab

39:02 That's just a little too weird, don't you think? And then they ask those scientists. They're like how did this... So wait a minute! You work at the Wuhan Respiratory Coronavirus Lab How did this happen and they're like mmmm a pangolin kissed a turtle Yeah. And Colbert was in the same kind of boat of Scott. Oh, yeah. Not now this can't be no. I'm going to hop up above whatever evidence you have. Remember he had the dancing, the dancing hypodermic needles during covid did promoting the Vax? Yeah. Yeah. I forgot about the dancing hypodermic needle. So Scott had a couple of comments that I thought were one was a teaser and then one was a tell

CHAPTER 13 / 53 Discussion

Turbo Cancer Concerns, Scott Adams Vaccine Skepticism

Scott Adams has questioned the medical consensus regarding the progression of his and Joe Biden's prostate cancer, suggesting the disease is moving at an unnaturally rapid pace. The term "turbo cancer" is discussed in relation to the COVID-19 vaccine's potential impact on reproductive organs and the immune system. Adams' skepticism toward his doctors' timelines suggests he believes an external factor accelerated the stage 4 metastasis.

turbo cancer· scott adams· prostate cancer· spike protein· vaccine side effects· joe biden

39:46 And it has to do with the possibility that this is not your typical prostate cancer because I knew Bill Ziff had prostate cancer when I first met him. He must have had it for 20 years and he finally succumbed to it but it took him forever, and it didn't seem to affect him. He didn't have the slurring or anything that's going on with Scott I don't know how he actually finally died when he died, but... But I thought that this was revealing and may indicate there's something more going on than just simple prostate cancer. This plays Scott Adams' teaser. Doctors who have appeared on social media and the TV? I do not think they're right either!

40:43 Okay, so the doctors all came all of a sudden we had it a deluge a deluge of Doctors coming on saying well Biden had this forever. He probably had if you entire presidency hmm and they were going on and on and they can't they've got to the point where they predated it pre-covid vaccine because we know by Yeah a couple Four or five, four or five. I don't know. A lot of things. But by saying that he probably had it when you got elected in 2020, you know, probably before that because it takes forever to get to this point of bone effect affecting the bones. It takes six, seven, eight, nine years and Scott which predates the shot? Yes.

41:41 Teases that he thinks that the doctors aren't right. Why would he say that? because I You can play some clips of Scott currently and then you can plan from two years ago And I don't think he had anything wrong with him two years ago If you listen to him, it was just too too spry to to I mean, it's still funny. He said...I think Scott Adams—I told him this too— Did you talk to him recently? Is that...? I exchanged a couple of notes. Mm-hmm. Um, and never told him this in person but I believe him to be on the same league as Mark Twain and Will Rogers as a contemporary humorist

42:25 And he did appreciate that comment, but I believe it to be true. There's not that many people who come around... Let me ask you this why would a guy like Scott Adams who has always been looking at medical stuff and always worried about his health? Was there nothing to be done for him? Did he just give up? Did he say, okay I'm going to live with this. It seems so un-Scott Adams. This is what tells me that tease that this came on faster than imaginable Like turbo fast Yes So listen to the tell. This is Scott Adam's tell

43:08 But the big question is how long does it take to go from a clean bill of health to stage 4 prostate cancer? So I heard one doctor say, it would take 7-10 years or something like that. Um...I don't think that's right! I think there's actually tremendous variability of how long it takes to go from localized in the prostate and your PSA spikes to, uh-oh. It is spread to your bones." Sounds like it's on Percocet actually... something like that. His description of the pain is like he's had to be on morphine. Oh man I feel so bad! That sucks Well yeah because he's a good observer you get material from him, material ideas at least and we don't steal from anybody We had a fight with him now I feel bad about the fight

44:05 You should. Don't do that to me! I will pray for Scott House. But, but I think and you know i'm not going to even discuss it with him which is the Vax issue that this came on Most people, you get prostate cancer. The rule is that there's nothing you can do about it really. You can have your prostate removed with that, but it doesn't make any difference it turns out if you have it removed or not because it's such a slow moving process that by the time in your 80s

44:42 you are gonna die of something else anyway. It's just the way it is and for this to happen at this rapid pace, which Scott indicates as far as I can tell because he has the tail and he has foreboding. And then he says those doctors are full of shit about Biden. You don't say that from a perspective unless you know something Well, I hope that he speaks his mind in his final days. It would be very good for humanity

45:18 Yeah, I think he will. He's still doing his show... I sure hope he will! I don't know how long you can continue doing it but he can do it probably for a while Gosh in light of the Michael Yadin clips we played on the last show is just horrible It was just horrible yeah I think those clips are applicable But this is this but the idea of prostate cake there was some commentary about to spike protein headed toward reproductive organs mmm well for sure So there's some of that kind of thing, but if this is going to show up as a turbo prostate cancer...

CHAPTER 14 / 53 Discussion

Ron Johnson, Myocarditis Report, Vaccine Recommendations

Senator Ron Johnson released a new report regarding myocarditis and vaccine safety, calling for a change in federal vaccine recommendations. The discussion notes a shift in the medical community toward recommending boosters only for high-risk elderly populations. There is growing pressure for health officials to acknowledge the risks associated with the mRNA platform for younger, healthy individuals.

ron johnson· myocarditis· vaccine safety· nih· covid-19

45:58 That's gonna... at some point they're going to have to say something. Somebody has no, well Scott may say something and we know he won't. I don't believe you will it's the plastics your drinking it's something its environmental it's all kinds of that we don't know! We can think of a single thing that changed? That's what your medical community is saying Which is... Well, Ron Johnson just came out with a report about myocarditis. I saw it! Yeah yeah the report it just dropped in my inbox like whoa. The other reports just came out and he says that this is they have to change the recommendation for this vaccine

46:42 Yes, like no. Change the recommendation yeah well that's what they're discussing right there was a big brouhaha about it saying well it should only be for old people who are on death's door pretty much. Yeah we'll see okay but anyway it's a depressing situation. That is depressing yes but to lighten it you could ask him if he has anal leakage he might get a kick out of it I'm not gonna try to do material. The dying man? Okay, I was just thinking like... I want to cheer the guy up! There's some stuff that he thinks is funny but I'm not an asshole anyway and we gotta overdo it Well, yeah, I still pray for Scott Adams that things can turn around anything is possible You know, he thinks its not possible but I think it is possible too

CHAPTER 15 / 53 Discussion

Jay Bhattacharya, NIH Speech Walkout

New NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya faced a staff walkout during a speech where he suggested the COVID-19 pandemic may have been caused by human-conducted research sponsored by the NIH. Bhattacharya emphasized the importance of free speech and the need to avoid research that poses risks to human populations. His comments reflect a significant shift in the internal politics of the National Institutes of Health.

jay bhattacharya· nih· covid-19 research· lab leak· free speech

47:39 Just along the lines of COVID, our new NIH director Jay Bhattachary gave a speech in front of some staff like I don't know an auditorium full of staff and when he said this people stood up and walked out of the auditorium. It's possible there's a lot of controversy over this i'm sure there are folks in the room who disagree with me but it is possible that the pandemic was caused by research conducted by human beings And it's also possible that the NIH partly sponsored that research. And if that is true, its nice to have free speech. Welcome you guys! There they go all walking out Yeah they're walking out to get their lawyers office So if its true we sponsored research If its true we sponsored research that caused a pandemic

48:37 And if you look at polls of the American people, that's what most people believe. And I've looked to the scientific evidence and I believe it. What we have to do is make sure that we do not engage in research as any risk opposing any risk to human populations. That's very good standard. Heaven forbid we do that! I have couple clips about the limitation of the COVID vaccine slash booster from the man who would know all about it Fauci. Oh wait, HOTEP! How is the approval process changing and who will be affected the most? Well the first part Pam is not much of a change that because it reduces hospitalizations and deaths the recommendation is to annual provide annual immunizations to those over the age of 65... Can you stop for a second? Sure That IS HOTEP Yeah that is HOTEP

CHAPTER 16 / 53 Discussion

Peter Hotez, Vaccine Confidence, Podcast Criticism

Dr. Peter Hotez expressed concern over the FDA's decision to limit universal vaccine recommendations, arguing that the impact of "long COVID" is being ignored. Hotez blamed "conspiracy podcasts" and "anti-vaccine activism" on cable news for undermining public confidence in vaccine safety. He suggested that the removal of such "disinformation" is necessary to restore trust in public health institutions.

peter hotez· vaccine· long covid· blue sky· podcasts· disinformation

49:35 And he, I didn't realize until I just, I mean, I recognize his voice but I didn't realize he does sound a little bit like just a pubescent teen. He sounds like a boy. Just without looking at him, he does not sound like a mature male. No, well he's definitely got something wrong with him. ...utilizations and deaths the recommendation is to provide annual immunizations to those over the age of 65 or those with underlying risk factors and in a guidance document they published in New England Journal of Medicine they listed what those risk factors are so no problem there The part that I disagree with

50:21 recommending universal vaccinations for those individuals under the age of 65. And the reason I think that's a mistake is because they're not really considering the impact of long COVID. There's now evidence to suggest that if you vaccinate, keep up with your immunization. What is evidence to suggest? Is that evidence? If there's evidence to suggest... It doesn't mean anything! Doesn't mean there's evidence. He said there's some stuff to suggest but it's not evidence that suggests. Because they're not really considering the impact of long COVID. There's now evidence to suggest that if you vaccinate keep up with your immunizations, you're much less likely to experience long COVID. And I think there's a lot of people concerned about long COVID and potentially they're not eligible. I think another reason is there is some impact on reducing virus transmission if you're vaccinated so I'm starting to get emails

51:13 and direct messages on Blue Sky and X from people in their 40s and 50s who are taking care of aging parents, and they're worried about giving COVID to their parents. So I think that's another reason to vaccinate. In my view this should be a decision made between individuals and their physicians if you're under the age of 65. And basically the federal government is taking that decision away away from us and I'm puzzled by that given the fact that this administration, at least Department of Health and Human Services keeps on beating the drum about health freedom medical freedom. This seems to be the opposite of them. Yeah because they won't pay for it you can take the Vax if you want you should have seen

51:57 the FDA page, or I don't know if it was the FDA page about this new recommendation. I don't think it was a verboten thing. No! It wasn't... that's not- he's full of shit that guy There were 5,000 comments of people saying like that but I want it! What if I want it? Okay. Yeah, well there are people that want it and you know they can do what they want Well here's his follow-up It's interesting doctor that this change brings the US approval process in line with other countries like the UK Canada and Australia The FDA hopes this change might help restore public confidence in vaccine safety Does this change help achieve that goal?

52:49 You know, I don't think so. I think what undermines public confidence in vaccine safety is all of the anti-vaccine activism and rhetoric that you're hearing on other cable news channels and some of the conspiracy podcasts. Yeah! We gotta mention! Conspiracy podcast! That's what going to help restore vaccine confidence if anything... Get rid of those... What? What did he say? What's going to restore vaccine confidence, getting rid of those conspiracy podcasts. The conspiracy podcast. Yeah I'll do it. Let me go back it up a second what'd you say here That you're hearing on other cable news channels and some of the conspiracy podcasts that's what's going to help restore vaccine confidence if any... Wow I want to hear what In other words get rid of the skeptics You know I don't think so I think what undermines public confidence

53:44 in vaccine safety is all of the anti-vaccine activism and rhetoric that you're hearing on other cable news channels and some of the conspiracy podcasts. And that's what's going to help restore vaccine confidence, if anything... That's very interesting! He says The confidence is, well so the question's about the confidence. He says well I think it's because of the rhetoric anti-vaccine rhetoric and the conspiracy podcast that's going to restore confidence what he left out was we're going after him? It's like he forgot to say something in there you know what i mean

54:26 No, I don't know what you mean. Listen to the clip again. It's interesting doctor that this change brings the US approval process in line with other countries like the UK Canada and Australia The FDA hopes this change might help restore public confidence in vaccine safety Does this change help achieve that goal? Okay does this change help achieve that goal You know, I don't think so. No. What undermines public confidence in vaccine safety is all of the anti-vaccine activism and rhetoric that you're hearing on other cable news channels and some of the conspiracy podcasts. OK, now here's what he said

55:11 They said, you think that these new policies will change the public perception? And he says no. That won't because the real problem is other networks Fox and OAN and these other fringe channels anti-vaxxers on these conspiracy podcasts that's what the problem is, is what he said. Okay let's just listen to the last 16 seconds and then we'll decide after that. Does this change help achieve that goal? You know I don't think so I think what undermines public confidence

55:51 in vaccine safety is all of the anti-vaccine activism and rhetoric that you're hearing on other cable news channels and some of the conspiracy podcasts. And that's what's going to help restore vaccine confidence, if anything I think this now kind of takes decisions away from individuals making health decisions in collaboration with their physician, it takes away that option. And I don't think that's the way we should go in the United States. It sounded strange to me. Oh, I know what you're thinking now Because he, you're right. You're right! What? He said... What? Say it a bit- You were dead right I didn't hear ya. He said uh, he talked about the podcast and says that's what will restore Yes

56:40 And what he left out was getting rid of this disinformation is what will restore. No, no! He didn't say getting rid of disinformation... That's what you were missing. Yes. He meant to say that and he left it out. Yes, but he meant to say getting rid of podcasts. Podcasts! It's podcasts! He's against the podcast. Yes, he left that out but that's what he meant Anyway, final bit here. He was thinking it but he didn't say it Here's the this is the final clip where you introduce a term that is worth discussing in making this decision FDA officials said there is not enough evidence that healthy children and adults get clinically meaningful benefits from regular COVID-19 shots They want to see more placebo controlled trials particularly in adults 50 to 64 before recommending the shot for other groups So what's wrong with that?

CHAPTER 17 / 53 Discussion

Chronic Sequelae, Pharma Clinical Trial Costs

The medical term "chronic sequelae" is used to describe the long-term complications of COVID-19, including heart disease and strokes. Dr. Peter Hotez argued that the FDA's requirement for new placebo-controlled trials for every variant is a "way of denying vaccine access" because the costs are prohibitively expensive for pharmaceutical companies. The segment also references Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s stance on maintaining vaccine access for all Americans.

sequelae· long covid· heart disease· clinical trials· fda· robert f. kennedy jr.

57:30 Well, there's a couple of things. One they only consider the acute manifestations of COVID in terms of case fatality rates and hospitalizations and while that is certainly important they're not factoring in the chronic sequelae such as long COVID, such as... Chronic sequelae? And now all sudden long COVID is a thing! Sequela is a condition resulting from disease, injury therapy or other trauma. A typical sequela is a chronic complication of an acute condition

58:06 a long-term effect of a temporary disease or injury. So now, Long COVID is sequelae. Certainly important they're not factoring in the chronic sequelaes such as Long COVID such as downstream heart disease remember this is thromboembolic viruses that virus that causes strokes and heart attacks they're not looking at the chronic implications of COVID. And I think that's a mistake and then the other is the idea that they'll allow universal vaccination provided the pharma companies now conduct a brand new round of clinical trials for each updated variant, it's not realistic because it can take months and months to do the enrollment

58:47 the expense of doing a trial to, especially now when everyone's been either previously infected or infected and vaccinated or vaccinated and infected. It would be a massive study that would be prohibitively expensive it basically means pharma companies are probably not likely to pursue that so it's really a way of denying vaccine access for those who want it. And it goes against what Mr Kennedy recently said, he made the point of saying he'll never deny any American access to any vaccine and clearly that's not the case. He's changed his mind apparently Yeah, my doctor has told me get the COVID booster shot. You might still wind up getting COVID but it'll be a much milder case than if you hadn't gotten that COVID booster shot. Dr Peter Hotez thanks as usual for joining us we always appreciate your expertise. Yeah so Brolf got a phone thank you Brolf good one! You helped us thank you very much thanks for saying that thanks for promoting and at the end of that confusing conversation we appreciate that So back to President Biden now my first thought there was

CHAPTER 18 / 53 Discussion

Joe Biden, Cheap Fakes Media Narrative

The White House and mainstream media outlets utilized the term "cheap fakes" to dismiss videos showing President Joe Biden's apparent cognitive and physical decline. Outlets like MSNBC and CNN claimed that videos of Biden appearing confused were "deceptively edited" by right-wing media. This narrative was later challenged by Biden's performance in the June presidential debate, which confirmed many of the concerns previously labeled as "cheap fakes."

joe biden· cheap fakes· white house· media manipulation· cognitive decline

59:54 They're finally gonna kill him if he's not dead already and all of a sudden yes, I You know it's the meme that does have one of the memes in the newsletter kind of have that in mind morbidity But yeah, I think did. Yeah That's what I was thinking you're gonna do wanted the guys guys decided to go back out on the speaking tours And they don't want that. Nobody wants him, he doesn't listen to anyone so they're gonna kill him You know so now we have this expose Wait before we get to the expose a little reminder A little mini cut of The M5M calling President Biden's stuttering and unintelligible language Cheap fakes Do you remember this period of time? Oh yeah who can forget It's cheap fakes everybody This

1:00:45 version of Biden intellectually, analytically is the best Biden ever. If it weren't the truth I wouldn't say it. Look! I'll do what he's unable to do I'll lead an effective strategy to mobilize true international pressure, isolate and punish China. Thanks to all the members of Congress and Homeland Security Secretary... I'm not sure you're going to introduce me all the way We were hearing about so-called cheap fakes It's playing out on right wing media Fox New York Post and so on And all of this is to try to make the case that Biden is slipping, he's confused and so on. She knows as long as I say denied our freedom can never be secured. We'll teach Donald Trump a valuable lesson don't mess with America unless you want to get the benefits. There are a lot of videos going around about President Biden on social media which ones are real? Which ones are deceptively edited now being called cheap fakes

1:01:46 of memes and what the White House is calling cheap fakes. Cheap fakes are a little bit simpler, they're cheap they're just distorted out-of-context videos chopped up in certain ways constructed in certain ways that's what we're seeing that's what the Biden administration the Biden campaign is so worried about right now How do you lead the world without having the best infrastructure? How do you lead the world without having the best healthcare in the world? How do you lead the world without having the best education system in the world? How do you lead the world when we don't have that done?! We all of these choose to be self-evident! All men and women created by God, you know the thing. Oh man! Of course we knew what was going on we talked about it now so Jake Tapper and this Alex Thompson from Axios they wrote a book which to me I mean this even comes up in some of the CBS stuff

Podcast Media Growth, Time Code Requests

With over 4.4 million total podcasts and nearly 500,000 active shows, the medium has become a primary source of information for many listeners. The hosts request that "Gitmo Nation" producers assist in monitoring this vast landscape by providing time codes for relevant clips. The difficulty of filtering through lengthy podcast content is highlighted as a challenge for media deconstruction.

podcasts· media consumption· podcast index· gitmo nation· time codes

1:02:40 Seemed like wow, okay So you get away with covering up and then you get to write a book and get to say oh no We did some investigative journalism. That's great what no one has answered yet And no one has asked What was up with daddy long legs? Don't pussyfoot around who was good guy wait Who was that guy is he dead did you kill him because obviously you can't have a perfectly good Biden walking around with legs that are too long So that question never came up. However, I have decided that we need to cover more of the podcast media because it is media that people are listening to one of the most popular would be... I feel the same way and i have some clips later in this show that has nothing to do with this but the same thing you got to go to the podcast. Got to go to the podcasts and uh the job for The No Agenda Producers is of course who send us podcasts with time codes

1:03:37 Yes, and it's important that we get this from the outside because there are too damn many podcasts. I know! It's crazy There is over 4.4 million podcasts that i know of because you keep track of the number and I always grill ya about it Well let me give you the current number Because the number that counts Is the number of active podcast in the last 90 days which means they've updated with an episode in the last 90 days. That number is 488,484 as of today. Still too many. It's too many podcasts. There are a lot of podcasts. Yeah that's global now that's global so... That's more than one out of every thousand people you run into there's someone doing a podcast. Someone who's a podcaster! That's a horrible statistic

1:04:31 So you need to help us with time codes. We both listen to podcasts, but it's impossible to listen to everything however Megyn Kelly... And they're also lengthy! Well but that's the beauty of the podcast man No thats' great part about a podcast if your customer of the podcast and like listening to somebody yuck away for awhile But in terms of us collecting clips Yeah It makes it very difficult Said the man who does three-and-a-half hour podcast twice a week So, please help us with that. It is very important and Megan Kelly absolutely one of the top podcasters

Megyn Kelly, Jake Tapper, Alex Thompson Interview

Megyn Kelly interviewed Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson regarding their book on the Biden administration, grilling Tapper on the media's failure to report on Biden's decline before the 2024 debate. Tapper admitted that "conservative media was right" and called for soul-searching within legacy media institutions. The interview highlighted the friction between journalists who claim they lacked sources and those who were accused of being complicit in a cover-up.

megyn kelly· jake tapper· alex thompson· axios· joe biden· legacy media

1:05:11 She just started a new feature, which is the AM update. I really appreciate what she's doing here It's about 15 to 18 minutes long This is something I can listen to on a daily basis most of it's like okay but she had Tapper and Thompson on and her interview was a lot better than anything else so Yes, I just wanted to say I watched this too The guy, Tapper took all the flack. This other guy was he must have been just wiping his brow on and off because she never grilled him. Well she didn't grill him she only asked them a question I think the deal here this guy had a book deal to do a book about Biden before the election

1:06:00 So I think he's the deal guy. He really has the book and Tapper is there to be the lightning rod, slap his name on it. The lightning rod. He supposed to take all the heat and he deserves it. It could only ever work if you allowed it, if the press allowed it some of us tried not too and some of us were complicit. The Biden White House did not like me Okay, this is I do not have great connections with the Biden White House says the guy who was at the birthday party of? The deputy CIA director hanging out hobnobbing with everybody okay? Called and worked

1:06:43 No, that's the point is that they were not being honest. That's the point- Well how did The Wall Street Journal get it in June of 2024? And Jake Tapper and CNN couldn't find sources for this story then before he dropped out? Annie Linsky and Siobhan Hughes did an amazing job in their reporting They didn't get the book deal though nanana! And they should be heralded and I heralded them I had him on my show right after the debate to talk about their great reporting But you did not put them on when they published that story, which was before the debate. Correct? If we're going to do this let's just stick to the facts here okay? Oh what a douche! If we're gonna do if we're gonna do this let's just stick to the facts okay Megan? Which was before the debate. Correct? If we're gonna do this... Let's just stick to the facts here okay

1:07:33 When there is a damaging report- Jake, that's what I've been doing all along. One of us didn't miss the biggest story of this century when it comes to presidential politics and one of us did. All right then we get into a very interesting angle where instead of saying the podcasts were right oh no it was conservative media And Alex and I are here to say that conservative media was right and conservative media was correct and that there should be a lot of soul searching not just among me but among the legacy media to begin with. Soul searching? John, you and I should do some soul-searching of our own!

CHAPTER 21 / 53 Discussion

Biden Debate Performance, The Politburo Aides

During the June presidential debate, CNN's Dana Bash reportedly wrote a note to Jake Tapper stating that Biden had "just lost the election." The book by Tapper and Thompson identifies a small circle of aides—Mike Donilon, Steve Ricchetti, Ron Klain, and Bruce Reed—as the "Politburo" who managed Biden's limited schedule and "built the bubble" around him. These individuals are accused of hiding Biden's diminishment from the public and even other cabinet members.

joe biden· dana bash· mike donilon· steve ricchetti· ron klain· politburo

1:08:18 Like, why are we doing this podcast? But among the legacy media... Legacy media. That's you! It's yourself! Begin with all of us for how this was covered or not covered sufficiently 100% Oh whenever someone says 100 percent from now on that means you might as well say bullcrap You know what I mean it's almost like 5%. My bad That's another one boy when they say my bad or we bad or our bad It's just sickening. That's on me! And by the way, check the calendar on that one for people. Yeah yeah. That's on me. That's from the 70s. That's another one. That's on me. That's on me. That's another one, yeah that's on me For how this was covered or not covered sufficiently? 100% So I mean i'm not here to defend coverage that I've already acknowledged I wish I could do differently No you don't But then this was the eye-opener to me is

1:09:17 This is what actually happened during that fateful debate when he and I think Dana Bash were hosting it. This is something like if you're... Doing this during a debate and you make take this make this conclusion You should have been on the air the next hour talking about it. So we have iPads because you can't communicate obviously Talking to your control room during a debate with my parents I wrote holy smokes know what? I was thinking was holy fuck Dana writes to me on a piece of paper He just lost the election And it was just I mean, it is I don't think this is hyperbole at all

1:09:56 The worst debate in the history of presidential debates going back to 1960. I just can't think of anything even remotely close to it Who cares about your stats about? 1960 and then you saw him immediately after he read in the book, and he seemed like unaware that Did I just see that was that did did I just witness this 90-minute event Yeah, so okay. So he's full of crap But then she does the one question here from Alex Thompson a lot of names We'd already guessed because we surmise as well someone else is running the show It's not President Biden The people that were naming who would they be Mike Donilon Steve Ruscetti my Donald his top political adviser Steve Ruscetti stop legislative advisor Ron Klain when he was chief of staff Bruce Reed and

1:10:46 his basically longtime policy advisor. Those are sort of the four, they were known as Politburo, Gray Hairs, Poohbos and they were with him the most of anybody now if you were to ask them and I still think even if you put them on truth serum today they would say he was fine then there's this other sort of group that aren't the Politburo but are just as powerful and they were the ones that kept the schedule affected personnel and really built the bubble. And that would be Amy Tomasini, who was deputy chief of staff in previously Oval Office operations and then Anthony Bernal who was the top aide slash enforcer for First Lady Jill Biden and had incredible influence to the point that even people in the Biden White House would refer to her as one of those powerful first ladies in history

CHAPTER 22 / 53 Discussion

Lindy Li, Hunter Biden White House Influence

Democratic fundraiser Lindy Li appeared on Dave Rubin's podcast to reveal that Hunter Biden was sitting in on high-level White House meetings while Joe Biden was incapacitated with COVID-19. Li claimed that after the June debate, fundraising "zeroed out," making it impossible for Biden to continue his campaign. She also criticized Jill Biden's role in insisting the President stay in the race despite his clear decline.

lindy li· hunter biden· dave rubin· jill biden· fundraising· white house

1:11:38 I have a couple of clips that follow this now because he left one person out mm-hmm which will be in the clip yeah Which which clip is it John these are the Lindy Lee clips? Oh, Lindy Lee. Yeah this is the... She was a fundraiser big time and she's always in the White House and she's spending a lot of time- She's all over the place. She's been on every podcast about Kamala Harris and the money and all this because she was a fundraiser. And she is mad! Hopping mad! She basically is hopping mad yes you're right

1:12:17 Jill's desperately wanted. So basically she's turned on Biden, this is what she has done She is profiling herself. She is not a whistleblower or she is not a turncoat. She is profiling herself for whatever reason. She is hyping up Lindy Lee I'm not sure what she's up to but the information is quite entertaining let's put it that way here we go desperately wanted him to stay. And please bear in mind that during this time Biden had COVID and Hunter was basically sitting in on White House meetings, high level meetings that require security clearances. This guy is honestly I'm not even entirely sure if he's a recovering drug addict Clayton it's undeniable that he peddled his influence to enrich himself and the big guy quote unquote

1:13:06 So this is a guy sitting in the Oval Office, listening in on top level White House meetings throughout this time. Throughout the month of July and I know because my friends are senior A's you know like Steve Ruscetti and Nina Dunne so Biden was like incapacitated this entire time because he was really sick And remember that a few days before Trump suffered the assassination attempt So people were freaking out. They rightly thought that the election was over, how do you beat a guy like that? And the way he handled it with such self-possession I would have been freaking out! I would have been hysterical on stage. No no it was incredible watching him in that moment of composure and everything else. Right...I mention that because Democrats were incomplete disarray would be putting it mildly but this is something people don't understand

1:13:58 or they don't even know and it hasn't been reported. There was no money coming in, other than the monthly recurring ActBlue donations that they trick you into giving obviously but this is not an exaggeration there was no money coming in after the debate like I mean zero. What podcast is this from? Okay this is Dave Rubin Oh okay Dave Rubin And you wouldn't know because The way this was edited by me. You edit out Dave Rubin because he's a little long-winded and annoying He's not only long winded, you don't realize until you have to sit there and edit him And then you think to yourself I could be doing ten clips instead of just one Which means podcasts could be 10% the length of what they really are He'll ask a question

1:14:46 Three or four different ways. Yeah before he lets the other person talk He did not go to the school of podcasting by Jackson He yak-yak-yak and yaks and then then doubles down and kind of reiterates And does it again? And again, I cut all of it out and and including the back of there was a number of back in force. Megyn Kelly does that too, by the way she does yes I've tried to clip her up to she's also is too talkative yeah and so this so these clips are tight compared to it i mean if even maybe we have to just do an interview show John maybe that's just where you have to go show these kids how its done son

CHAPTER 23 / 53 Discussion

James Clyburn, Biden Campaign Kingmaker

Congressman James Clyburn is identified as the primary force behind Joe Biden's 2020 primary victory in South Carolina and his subsequent presidency. Clyburn reportedly pressured Biden to appoint Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court and was instrumental in the selection of Kamala Harris as Vice President. The segment characterizes these appointments as being driven by a DEI agenda rather than merit.

james clyburn· joe biden· kamala harris· ketanji brown jackson· dei· south carolina

1:15:27 No, maybe not. That sounds like a pain in the butt. Maybe not let's go with... No I think what we've got is the best formula for shows it said you move along here. Daffers who i would just be like shooting shit with on the sofa because they had nothing to do and we would just be commiserating because everybody lost faith So Biden kind of markets his decision as an act of patriotism. It wasn't, there was no money coming in so there's no way he would have continued it just no way But putting the money part aside do you have any insider info as to what the day or two before he stepped down was like. Yeah, and I want to say that I first hinted at this on The Shawn Mines Show and then suddenly that new book that's coming out Fight! I hate even mentioning it because I don't want to get in free advertising but they were repeating something that i already said 2 months ago like its some new intel. The role of Congressman James Clyburn has been seriously underestimated in a public sphere He played such a huge role In so many instances of Bidens recent life starting with

1:16:28 his 2020 campaign. If it hadn't been James Clyburn, there would have been no Biden presidency I want to be extremely clear about that because he came in fifth in New Hampshire he was done and and he bombed in Iowa too. Do you remember this? James Clyburn saved his butt by endorsing him and allowing him to win the South Carolina primary, if it hadn't been his intervention Biden would have been done! And that was a point at which Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buttigieg, everyone made or rally around him. That was Clyburn. Clyburn is also the person that made him appoint Kentonji Brown-Jackson The woman who can't say what or who a woman is? Yeah, right. Hired because she was nominated because she was a woman just doesn't know what a woman is Exactly and let's just be very clear all these people are DEI candidates Oh I forgot to mention that Kamala Harris has picked also largely because of James Clyburn Hmm

1:17:25 Yeah, that little tidbit got... That's interesting. Yeah, that is good. We had other thoughts on that but she does say in another part of this interview that the three people who ran the show were Anita Dunn was number one which was not mentioned on another clip you had. No. Anita Dunn who is just a horrible looking person. Anita Dunn, Richetti and Donalyn who is brother of the CEO of BlackRock. Anita Dunn looks like... what's that Admiral? Who was the admiral? The dude with Rachel Levine. Rachel Levine, she does look like Rachel Levine! Wow So um

CHAPTER 24 / 53 Discussion

Anita Dunn, Robert Bauer, Washington Power Couple

Anita Dunn and her husband Robert Bauer are described as the ultimate "power couple" in Washington, D.C., with deep ties to the Obama administration and the law firm Perkins Coie. Dunn is credited with running the Biden White House alongside Ricchetti and Donilon. The discussion links their influence to the push for DEI agendas within both the federal government and the corporate world via BlackRock.

anita dunn· robert bauer· perkins coie· barack obama· blackrock· dei

1:18:07 Donald and who's the other guy who is the whose brother of the guy runs Blackrock? Is largely responsible for passing black rock so want to push the DEI agenda on the on the corporate world Yeah, which reminds me of my recent experience with the Lexus dealer. I I'll complain about that on another show. Very disappointed in how Lexus has turned into it. Well, I want to stick a pin in that one because I'm interested in hearing that little story. But those are the three she claims are really the ones who ran the show and here's the last clip. Biden's original intention was not endorse Kamala that day at all and he would just roll out his own leisurely pace. He wanted this stage himself

1:18:52 to basically make a victory lap and, you know, luxuriate in all the love and admiration that he thought he deserved. But James Clyburn insisted—actually, he wanted Biden to endorse him in the first tweet. There were two tweets separated by half-an-hour but the fact that Biden endorsed her so quickly afterwards was because of James. And he kind of flies under the radar but Clyburn is at every major fundraiser I always see him at VIP events. He has a youngish looking wife, I forget her name and the two of them would just be there like meandering the crowd they're always there i hosted Biden Harris here in Philadelphia in February 2023 Clyburn was there I raised half a million for them

1:19:43 in September, right after the debate in D.C., and Clyburn is there he's there everywhere just exerting a quiet influence and I'm just genuinely shocked that the public hasn't caught on Wow she's vying for a gig somewhere else thats for sure how many bridges can you burn? She's plugging herself and her ability burning the bridge so Dunne is married to Robert Bauer former partner at Perkins Coie And former personal counsel to President Obama and the White House Counsel. They are the power couple of Washington, D.C., well that makes sense

CHAPTER 25 / 53 Discussion

Donald Trump, Kennedy Dinner, Military Enlistment

Donald Trump spoke at the Kennedy dinner, claiming that the U.S. is no longer a "laughing stock" and is respected again by leaders like Vladimir Putin. Trump touted record-setting military enlistment numbers over the past eight months and praised the progress of the Space Force. He emphasized that the U.S. has moved from third to first place in space defense and offense capabilities.

donald trump· kennedy dinner· military enlistment· space force· vladimir putin· saudi arabia

1:20:21 With a face like that you better have some power. Sorry to say it, I hate being superficial. Yeah, I hate when you do that because heaven forbid I would never make such... You would never say that! I would never comment on somebody's homely looks No no well i think that for a moment here we should just take a little breather and we should listen what the ladies from The View had to say about this book Original Sin At the tone A clip from The View will be played Shelter in place. Yes, please. Here's the Trump atrocities I'm going to list them for you. Cutting Medicaid. Yeah Well this is what we're concerned about now Oh I gotcha okay Cutting Medicaid Slashing funding for cancer research Rising prices because of tariffs Dismantling USAID which helps children and people who are poor around the world Fears of recession Destroying due process Ending birthright citizenship Dismantling the Department Of Education Rolling back regulations on air and water

1:21:39 Meanwhile... And I'll get back to Tapper in a moment. President Trump spoke at the Kennedy dinner last night, was it last night or the night before last night? Did you see any video of this? No, I saw none of it He had a lectern more like a stand for his speech notes and like a golden eagle is holding up the speech but it's not just a golden eagle looks like... The Golden Eagle has... It's made of gold clearly

1:22:32 Has a head like a- Well, plated. Like not made of gold. It has a head like one of those cartoon eagles. You know, like Captain America cartoon eagles. Oh that's funny! leaderistic, let me put it that way. And he says hey whatever you say we were numb nuts before I came along! As they said the king of Saudi Arabia said your place your country is a whole different image now we were a laughing stock an absolute laughing stock but we're not a laughing stock any longer and you know i was talking

1:23:08 to, as I said President Putin for two and a half hours that was being very seriously listened to. We don't like what's happening we don't like that we should have ever been involved would have never happened but were respected again is the country you know one thing that I tell you that I think it's amazing if you remember about eight months ago the big story was it nobody wants to join our military we couldn't have any people weren't joining And they weren't proud of our country. They were joining police forces all over the country, Houston, Dallas, all over the country New York and now we have a record-setting enlistment in the military think of that record setting The most in 38 years but it's probably more than that they started taking the numbers Suzy at thirty eight years ago right? But the most in 30 is probably the most ever I don't know but We have recordsetting

1:24:02 young people that want to join the military and that's incredible. To have that is just absolutely incredible, and to think that eight months ago we were all listening to the fact that this was before the election... Eight months ago we were listening to the fact that we wouldn't have any you know we wouldn't have anybody in our middle I mean nobody Army, Navy Air Force Marines Space Force. I'm so proud of space force because we got that going We started a space for us and they wanted to terminate it and the military backed up And they said, you're not going to do that. We were third in space and now we're number one in space by a lot. They've done a great job there are some great commanders in space for us but ultimately it's going be one of the most important things we have ever done because its all heading into space and I'm not talking about just experimental things that we do. It will go on to space. Because I understand that, we can understand that but where in terms of defense and offense of our country Yeah, we are number 1

CHAPTER 26 / 53 Discussion

White House Deception, 25th Amendment Discussion

Journalists Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson discussed how Biden's aides structured his schedule to hide his cognitive decline from the public and the Cabinet. The conversation explores whether the 25th Amendment should have been invoked and the lack of accountability for aides who allegedly covered up the President's condition. The "Politburo" of aides is accused of prioritizing political optics over national security concerns.

joe biden· 25th amendment· jill biden· hunter biden· national security· cabinet

1:24:59 I just want to play a few of these CBS, this morning with CBS Gale and the gang with Tapper and Thompson. Tapper and Thompson? You don't need the intro... Okay so they are blaming all of this on the administration, on the aides, on the White House. Who was running the White House? It's all their fault. Did you guys think that the aides were being deceitful or did you think they really believed he was going to be okay Alex and would do the job? I think some of the early steps were done with innocent enough reasons You want your principal to look good But as his diminishment increased Some of those actions became increasingly deceitful Because the fact is The Biden we saw in debate stage last June

1:25:46 He had other moments like that behind the scenes and increasingly so. And they started structuring his schedule, his public schedule to make sure that the public didn't see it and even some people inside their own administration, their own White House, their own cabinet did not see this. Yeah no one saw it. No one saw it. Remember how deceitful they were with these sharp as a tack? What sharp as attack he's sharp as a towel shark visit tell you sure yeah, I run circles around ya Yeah Sharp is attack every shot his attack So speaking of circles as we all know there's a difference between the outer rung and then your inner circle. Yeah And when it comes to proximity the former first lady Joe Biden is the closest to him? Yeah Do you believe that she was complicit in this

1:26:35 cover-up? I think the main people complicit in hiding the non functioning Biden were President Biden, First Lady Biden Hunter Biden and then his immediate circle of aides that other people in the White House called The Pollock Bureau. Mike Donilon Steve Ruscetti and some others they were the ones who Afraid afraid to mention Anita done pussy. He's afraid he's afraid he knows, you know I better not mentioned done Donalyn and bruschetti are being roasted for this. Yeah, don't let her Shetty or get into Brunt of it? Yeah, I agree. Yeah on Steve Ruscetti and some others they were the ones who saw President Biden

1:27:13 every day, up close and personal. And whether they were lying to themselves and everybody else or just everybody else? That is a big question. Right I agree. It's a big question that there was no cover-up! So one of those aides, Roshetti referred us to the Biden team statement which is there's nothing in this book that shows Joe Biden failed to do his job job, nor did they prove their allegation that there was a cover-up or conspiracy. Nowhere do they show that our national security was threatened or President Biden wasn't otherwise engaged in the important matters of the presidency. But I actually feel you do show... I think we do. If he's not meeting with cabinet members if they don't have direct access to him if he sometimes lights out at 515 or dinner and 430 as you reported even during the administration

1:27:59 I do genuinely wonder if something had occurred of national concern, who was making the decisions at that point? Well, we didn't make this up. The fact is that people inside the administration told us this. We had multiple cabinet members that said if there'd been a crisis especially in 2024 late in the middle of night they did not have confidence Joe Biden would necessarily be up to that task And as a result, you sort of have the institutional aspects of the presidency that would have probably tried to take hold. So I mean, and you mentioned in The Other Day that the 25th Amendment is no good. Should people like this who are very aware of it shouldn't they be held? Can you just call them traitors? Can they be held accountable to any standard for not disclosing what was really going on?

1:28:49 I think you can call them what you want, but there's nothing you can do about it. They could publicly humiliate them as far as it is going to get because the rest of it... You could say make the comment in fact I would use that as a defense. Hey! There was the 25th amendment that we could have done and then we didn't do it for You know, but we could have gotten rid of it if we thought it was that bad. So we were pretty sincere and if it was that bad Congress could have done because the 25th Amendment also allows Congress to bypass... The way is supposed to be done the first round is the vice president goes to the board

1:29:28 Board of Directors over there, which is basically your administration the second goes to the other departments the various The department says hey Hey secretary. Hey We gotta get rid of this guy yeah And then they all vote okay and they kick him out it's just 25th amendment But if they but the vice president doesn't do that the Congress said the House of Representatives can do it you know in some way or other, but they still have to get the secretaries to agree. I'm not sure...I'd have to look it over again. But the point is that you can use that as a defense? So this is...I think this is season of reveal for the American public if they care to pay attention because

CHAPTER 27 / 53 Discussion

Presidential Health Transparency, The Auto-Pen

Following the revelations about Joe Biden's health, there are calls for new laws requiring full, under-oath health disclosures for U.S. Presidents. Donald Trump commented on the situation, questioning the credibility of Biden's doctors and raising concerns about the use of the "auto-pen" for official documents and pardons. The segment suggests that if Biden was not cognitively fit, the legality of documents signed by the auto-pen could be challenged.

donald trump· joe biden· health records· transparency· auto-pen· pardons

1:30:12 It's exactly it. There is no accountability, now we know who was running the show We were lied to as the American public The news media did not do their job No matter how tabard jumps around They are screwed up, people don't trust these guys anymore They listen to podcasts. Yes news yes, you have enough people that tell us oh You know I don't even listen to this is the podcast yeah? Why is that Because of our dark soothing voices, I'm convinced. We can talk about this. That's right everybody so of course it would not be CBS if we didn't somehow turn this around and make it about Trump So Jake you mentioned President Trump You know after writing a book like this Yeah? I would assume it gives you a keen eye when it comes to the cognitive and physical declination of No! Now all of a sudden I got a keen eye now I know what to look for you know like the guy who's a foot taller running towards the helicopter Local leaders

1:31:15 And you guys are well sourced as Gil mentioned. What are you hearing? What do you hear when it comes to our current president is he losing his mind is out of control what do you know Jake, you're the expert Trump I don't think we don't see any effort any evidence sort of deterioration cognitively. I think the questions about Trump that have always been raised have to do with his personality, which is something that is very out and in the open to voters but to pick up on Alex's point whether you're talking about President Biden or President Trump or President Gayle King, I think that... Choose another name. The transparency. Transparency is so important it is not required

1:31:55 Presidents do not have to give their health records to the American people. And that needs a change? That is unacceptable after this There's no way that the American people should tolerate this ever again. There needs to be a law on the books requiring full health disclosures, full health under oath as Alex said... Let's hope the doctors tell the truth too! That seems to require it. The doctors tell the truth! They're liars! But because the doctors are not always fully discreet. Exactly right No like during COVID Exactly so no one can trust nobody? That's the bottom line. Great. No one can trust NOBODY. of course by the way i want to do you should we have to bring it

1:32:35 The idea, the daddy long legs thing is still... It's pissing me off. ...since you brought it up. It's making me mad! I think that you have to bring it into the conversation more because it is the thing what? Yeah they're making all this, you know, married couples and they're going into this and that oh we missed this or we missed that or could've cut- And no one has brought that out Who was that guy?! One of the more obvious things because he had this tall skinny guy with a, ya know Who was that guy? Was it a mask, these are my questions. Who was the guy? There's been no discussion of that technology the CIA mask which we know is very advanced who was he? It was advanced in the 60s That's right! Who was he? Was it a mask and did you kill him or is he available for parties bar mitzvahs and weddings because he's awesome He was pretty good

1:33:30 He did a good job. He should receive an Academy Award, this guy should be screw Zelensky This guy should be on it yeah I played Joe Biden for the entire world Yeah you're awesome man You really had us fooled except when you were running towards the helicopter at eight feet tall So President Trump of course takes advantage of this to put the fear of God into certain people Do you want to respond to President Biden being diagnosed with cancer? Are you gonna call your processor I think it's very sad, actually. I think that if you take a look it's the same doctor that said Joe was cognitively fine there was nothing wrong with him well he said... If its the same doctor who said there is nothing wrong there and thats being proven to be a sad situation and uh..the auto pen is becoming a very big deal You know? The auto-pen is becoming a big deal because it seems like maybe it was the president whoever operated the auto-pen

1:34:29 But when they say that, that was not good. They also... you know you have to look and you have to say then the test was no so good either In other words there are things going on that The public wasn't informed And I think somebody's gonna have to speak to his doctor if it's the same or even if its two separate doctors Yeah now thats gonna put some fear into people who got pardons Uh oh! It was Anita Dunn who was controlling the pen. Oh no, oh no! Oh boy I'm in trouble now He's not gonna do anything but i think nothing is going to happen No of course not But it will scare people People are easily freaked out

CHAPTER 28 / 53 Discussion

Big Beautiful Bill, No Tax on Tips

House Republicans passed a major tax bill, dubbed the "Big Beautiful Bill," which includes provisions for "no tax on tips" and "no tax on social security." Donald Trump met with House Republicans to unify the party behind the mission, warning that failure to pass the bill would result in the highest tax increase in American history. Congressman Thomas Massie expressed opposition to the bill due to the associated four-trillion-dollar increase in the debt ceiling.

donald trump· house republicans· tax bill· no tax on tips· social security· debt ceiling

1:35:07 Uh, then this morning it happened. BBB used to be billed back better now with the big beautiful bill! On this vote, the yeas are 215 and the nays are 214 with one answering present The bill is passed. Yeah! No tax on tips! No tax on social security no tax on overtime no tax on nothing I'd like to know how the salt thing was resolved because one of the guys made a big fuss about it. You have some clips... Well, hold on a second! I want to play this short clip because this wasn't going to happen until President Trump went into the meeting he had a meeting with the Republicans in the House

1:35:56 And just so you know, it was a meeting of love. I think it was really great. That was a meeting of love let me tell ya that was love in that room there was no shouting...I think it was a meeting of love There were couple things we talked about specifically where some people felt one way or the other not a big deal It's a great meeting the party is unified The House Republican Conference is excited multiple standing ovations. They love this president, the people back home love what he's doing it's historic and everybody understands the scope and the meaning of this if we do not accomplish this mission every one of you all the American people are going to have the highest tax increase that you've ever had I think it was a great talk President Speach talked about things who did you work for? NERS

1:36:41 I don't even know what the hell that is. Get yourself a real job. Where are you, nurse? Where are you from? Like get yourself a real job! Anyway yes a meeting of love here's how i think the meeting went hey look at this picture what is that in your mouth That was an obvious... You know Trump does that he went where did he go when he showed a picture of the guys house Remember that? Yeah, it was the Taliban guy. He said hey look at this what's this is a picture of your house so I think they just he had a little stack of pictures like look at this look at this look at this The way politics has always done in America If you did that to the Taliban guy he probably... You're right That's probably his MO for certain people

1:37:27 Not everybody's happy. Massey, of course is very unhappy about this. Massey is always unhappy Well I mean what he's unhappy about is the four trillion dollar increase in the debt ceiling And it should be Yes and by the way...I heard you and Horowitz talking about this on the show Oh!

CHAPTER 29 / 53 Discussion

SALT Tax Deduction, California vs. Texas

The debate over the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction continues, with Republican Representative Mike Lawler of New York demanding a fix in exchange for his vote. The deduction primarily benefits high-tax Democratic states like California and New York, leading to arguments about whether residents of low-tax states like Texas are indirectly subsidizing them. The discussion also covers the impact of property taxes and the use of TurboTax formulas for IRS filings.

salt· tax deduction· california· texas· property tax· turbotax· irs

1:38:54 Wow, that's going quite well. Looking good! Oh no it's because of Coinbase there in the S&P. Oh Coinbase please you guys... I liked that analysis when he said that. Yeah please be consistent It's the four trillion dollars that what is doing it. Printing more money hello That was what was going on there So I want to get this out of way cause this is important This is part of they always say that The rich are somehow benefiting from Trump tax cuts for the rich is bullcrap. And they had nothing but trouble getting this SALT stuff through, that's SALT estate and local taxes. In other words I'm in California... You pay 13% I think? I have to pay 13 percent of the state of California and I don't get deducted from the federal! Now can i ask you a question does SALT also include your mortgage deduction

1:39:45 Your interest, mortgage interest deduction or does that not change? I don't think so. That's another issue because they put a cap on that but they raised the cap on that thanks for what... Oh they raised it on that too? No they raised it on- that was always going to get raised to 40 from 10. Forty thousand?! From ten! Wow! If you own some properties you end up, you know, it can add up. I know time to get a bigger house Yes, that's my motto. So let's just get a little background on this because it's kind of interesting I thought it may be beside the point at this point but let's play salt support NPR. Last week on this program we heard from Representative Mike Lawler of New York State one of the Republicans who want to restore a federal tax deduction for state and local taxes here's what he said then

1:40:34 As I've said for over two years since coming to Congress, if there was not a fix for SALT, I would not support any tax bill that came before me. I have been loud and clear about that. Yesterday President Trump addressed this issue he said he doesn't like the SALT tax deduction as it's called because he said it would benefit quote Democrat states Representative Lawler is back on the line from New York. Representative, good morning! Good morning Steve thanks for having me Thanks for joining us again The president doesn't sound like he's interested at all in your priority anymore What does that mean for your vote? Well I think the President obviously is anxious to get a bill passed We are in the final stages of negotiating that through the House And then as your report just mentioned it goes to the Senate So the President wants us

1:41:27 afternoon into the evening meeting with the speaker and coming to terms on an agreement. But we are still working through some of the finer points, and I suspect today will be in a much stronger position. Do you mean to say that you think you're going to get this all tax deduction or some variant of it? Or some portion of it Oh, we are. So just so I understand that I live in a state where there's no state income tax. We do have rather high sales tax and real estate tax which pays for beautiful roads. You got big beautiful roads and everything is good. Everything is fine. Everything functions. We have chemtrails Abbott that something has got to change. And so what's happening here is when you get to deduct your 13 percent, that comes out of my pocket does it not?

1:42:21 Oh yeah, it comes right out of your pocket. Indirectly! We're coming in there and we're looking for you and we're gonna hit ya over the head with us. Oh spoken like a true Cali commie come on now It's the truth. If you get to deduct it, then that's coming out of... Why should I be double taxed is the question? Do you think it's fair? No! I don't! I'm getting—I got a dollar and I get taxed like 13 cents for the dollar and then I have to pay taxes another 30 percent. I understand your issue and you are correct sir however

1:42:57 Your state should not be levying tax against you. Instead, you're going to deduct it from the money you pay into the big pot that I pay into as well! I do have a small if-you with that because YOU should move out of California! Why? Because of the 13% tax... I'd like the weather. You'd love Texas! I don't like it THAT hot I do like Texas weather, i have no complaints about it but they're also still have tornadoes and other issues. You're just making a climate change now whereas I have a point that's okay but that means we are picking up the slack for states like California who are out of control you know you can deduct your

1:43:42 your property tax and you can deduct your sales tax. Some people do that, I don't know but nobody does it but I know people that can do it and have done it. TurboTax has like some formula where they just say yeah you probably paid this much we'll deduct it which is great! TurboTax generally acceptable these formulas are accepted by the IRS they're pretty liberal about But you get to deduct that too. Look, I don't have a problem with it. My sales tax isn't what yours is less and also we property taxes are reasonable because we have Prop 13 which keeps people from having their property taxes jacked up every year by some maniac which happens in Washington State and elsewhere. We don't have that in California luckily. Well how groovy! It is groovy

CHAPTER 30 / 53 Discussion

Medicaid Reform, Fraud Enforcement, Rural Hospitals

Representative Mike Lawler defended Medicaid reforms aimed at slowing the rate of growth and implementing work requirements for able-bodied adults. He countered claims from Democratic Representative Greg Kassar that the cuts would close rural hospitals, arguing instead that the focus is on removing ineligible recipients and reducing fraud. The segment suggests that better enforcement and "billy clubs" for fraud investigators would save significant taxpayer money.

medicaid· mike lawler· greg kassar· fraud· rural hospitals· work requirements

1:44:34 So on where we could now, you have to remember the NPR. This guy's reasonable this Republican from New York and he and NPR has to get some digs in on Trump and he backs him off pretty well is pretty good back-and-forth but this part... New York's tax burden is the highest in the country The governor just increased state spending by double digit billion dollars up a hundred billion in a decade. These are unsustainable levels and that's what the president was referencing. Let me ask about, forgive me I just want to get one more thing in here we heard earlier today from Greg Kassar one of your Democratic colleagues he's from Texas yeah Austin loser and he's talking about this budget bill talking about the Medicaid cuts or savings

1:45:20 And he asserts that the cuts will affect health care for real people, including in a red state like his. Let's listen. What they're talking about is closing rural hospitals closing addiction treatment centers, leaving four million school-age kids without food assistance. It's horrible but we can still stop it." When he says rural hospitals I immediately think of one that i know about in upstate New York that is forever in danger of closing this is a constant problem across the United States how would you protect rural hospitals as you cut back scale back Medicaid which many them depend on?

1:45:58 Greg Kassar, by the way is a massive, massive communist. Yeah he was obviously a communist and I like the way the NPR guy... The guy is talking about Hokel jacking up the the revenues for New York by a hundred billion dollars and he cuts him off to throw in that the communist guy, who sounds like a woman by the way. In terms of his pitch He probably had a vasectomy. He led the workers defense project, the certified communist this guy. That was so Austin he was on the Austin City Council worst guy ever! So he brings all this stuff in because it's got a lot of anti-Trump messaging and New York backs it off pretty nicely. Yeah they did yeah

1:46:51 Here he comes. Here's where he really does it and focus with of the reforms in the bill Is to slow the rate of growth and make sure that those who are not eligible Do not receive benefits ie illegal immigrants people who are no longer eligible should not remain on the program for up to a year, which is what the Biden administration allowed as well as work requirements for able-bodied adults. When it comes to food assistance, it's a cost share. It is having the states have some skin in the game starting with 5% share right now they pay 0% share for the costs so this is about slowing the rate of growth Medicaid is going to expand by 24 percent

1:47:39 over the 10-year window of this bill. So it is not a major cut, but in fact slowing the rate of growth. Congressman Mike Lawler, Republican of New York always a pleasure talking with you thank you so much Thank You Yeah that's that's the lie about the or they're gonna cut your Medicare and cut this cut that... That's not true! They're going to make you actually go look for a job Well, not only that but they're cutting the growth. Yes which has grown 100% in like five years or something I think it's because of fraud if they put some police on the job In other words you put an enforcement agency together and then tack it onto the operation with some teeth Billy clubs go in there to wrap some knuckles knock on some doors Hey! Walk across the room You got no problem You can walk on those stumps

1:48:26 And if you do some enforcement, you would have less fraud and then you would save a lot of money. But it's like a pain in the ass to put together an agency or enforcement division. And maybe they should get rid of those ads for those phony baloney phones? that, you know... Oh it'll cost you nothing. Where you have anonymous Indian transcribing the call in the background? Yeah those phones. Yeah those phones and all that get rid of all that nonsense The back braces All these things oh it'll cost you nothing. All very dubious. I get calls every so often from one of these operations You can get a free this or free that just sign up A free walking stick! A free uh... Free Shillelagh. Shillelagh

CHAPTER 31 / 53 Discussion

Israeli Embassy Staff Shooting, Washington D.C.

Two Israeli embassy staff members were shot and killed outside the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. The suspect, Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, reportedly shouted "Free Palestine" and claimed he committed the act for Gaza. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the shooting as a "brazen act of cowardly anti-Semitic violence." The incident is linked to the rising tide of ideological extremism fueled by media and campus protests.

1:49:14 You know what a shillelagh is? No, what's a shillelagh. That's interesting Maybe I do... What's a shil- I've heard the word! What's a shillelagh? It's like a big stick that the Irish walk around with Ah, shillelagh! Ah, I clibaskit the shillelagh We get one of those you could get one of those scooters One of those that... Yeah, I could. Drive around a Walmart. I'm on a hill that'd be really funny to watch. Next time you're in Walmart just get on one of those and take a picture it'll be hilarious. What are those electric scooters? What are they called? I don't know what they call electric scooters. I got Medicaid talking about Medicaid cuts again Medicaid cuts

1:49:52 Yeah, it'd be like you don't need Medicaid. You're a podcaster what's your problem? Two clips Oh hold on a second...Medicaid, Medicaid... Medicaid cuts I'm looking under M Medicaid cuts. I'm looking under M, I don't see anything with Medicaid. There's like Medicaid II there's Medicaid cuts NTD and there's medical nuisance scam. John, I do not have these what is going on? There are Ms. No! I am looking at the Ms were these your bonus clips that i put them in the wrong? Okay I have Magna Carta, Magna Carta Tail Malema, Malema, Malema Qatar. I don't have Medicare

1:50:36 Under the M. I don't! Well then it got mis-organized because it was sent with the rest of them, It wasn't sent separately... Well I'm just telling you Do you have Nintendo GRIPE? Nope Did you send one batch or two batches? No, wait. Hold on... Oh oh okay I love it how you blame me! Can't blame you it's your fault Blame it on the podcaster no I don't have these clips You'd have to go to the- never mind Never mind Well do you want to send them to me real quick? I'll be happy to add them in Nah forget it I got better material with the Doge attack Okay well first let me talk about a different attack because this was completely predictable knew what was going to happen

1:51:18 No surprise, the Jewhate has reached its epic... Oh yeah, this is a good story. Well it's not a good story! It's a very bad story. Overnight police in Washington DC investigating the deadly shooting of two Israeli embassy staff members Authorities say the man and woman were shot at close range as they were leaving the Capitol Jewish Museum Prior to the shooting the suspect was observed pacing back and forth outside of the museum He approached a group of four people produced a handgun And opened fire striking both of our decedents After the shooting, the suspect then entered the museum and was detained by event security. After the shooting a man in custody inside the museum was heard chanting support of Palestinians.

1:52:04 He implied that he committed the offense. The suspect chanted free, free Palestine while in custody. One witness says she gave the man water unaware of what had unfolded We offered him water and he was like yeah that'll be great actually That's when he reaches into his backpack and pulls out a keffiyeh and says, I did it. I did this for Gaza. The shooting suspect identified as 30 year old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago police say they had no prior interactions with him. The American Jewish Committee was hosting an event at the museum celebrating Jewish heritage at the time of the shooting Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying this was a brazen act of cowardly anti-Semitic violence

1:52:48 Israel's ambassador to the UN calling it quote a depraved act of anti-semitic terrorism saying the young embassy staffers killed were a couple who are planning to get married. There you go, yeah completely predictable. What brought that on do ya think? Media pushing the Palestine protest yep colleges pushing Palestine Palestine Palestine mm-hmm South Africa yep But you know, next time it'll be a right winger. It's just going to keep on happening and I know...I know a lot of Jewish people they're very worried like oh this is no good! It is no good! You can't go shooting people like that just because of some political purpose for political purposes? Because an American living in Chicago went to free Palestine what do you got to do with it?! It's ideological at this point. It's not political. It's ideological.

1:53:43 Yeah, yeah. All right well there you go that's not good news I know he said it was a good story It's a good story! It is not a good story but if that does bring us to ideologies...I did pick up and listen to a Financial Times podcast that had Steve Bannon Bannon back on the beat do you have this clip? Yeah, it's called Bannon. It's one of the bonus clips Yes I have Bannon You ready? This is interesting this is about the Pope I recommend it I'm sorry was that a cue? No just play By the way Just so you know there are already trolls who were saying Was fake wasn't a fake shooting Wasn't real wasn't real Yeah they're trolls are trolls yeah I recommend it

CHAPTER 32 / 53 Discussion

Steve Bannon, Vatican Schism, Pope Election

Steve Bannon discussed a potential schism in the Catholic Church between traditionalists and the "radical" direction of Pope Francis (referred to as Bergoglio). Bannon claimed the conclave that elected the current Pope was "rigged" and that the Vatican is desperate for American cash due to its illiquid assets. He identified Cardinal Prevost as a "dark horse" acolyte of Francis who was placed to maintain the current theological trajectory.

steve bannon· vatican· pope francis· bergoglio· prevost· latin mass

1:54:36 He come back strong in that and Bergoglia the entire time has been very anti-Trump, but that's not the it's not Stopping keeps referring to the previous Pope Francis as Bergoglio Which is a real I recommend. Oh yeah, and he also refers to the new pope by his former name too okay blue I recommended He'd come back strong in that, and Bergoglia the entire time has been very anti-Trump. But it's not just being anti-Mage or anti-Trump—that's the politics of it, right? And Prevost is a continuation but for the traditional Catholics in the crowd, the Latin mass Catholics, pre Vatican II Catholics we're close to a schism in the church between Bergoglia in this kind of radical way he's taking it

1:55:23 What my research found, we have lots of contacts in the Curia. We have lots of contacts in the Vatican. I've spent a lot of time in Italy. We had a monastery that we actually owned before the government took it away from us to be kind of a counter towards going on the Vatican so we have a broad network of the traditionalists and prevosts... And I'm saying this! The conclave for the Pope was more rigged than the 2020 election. Let me back up some facts on Piers Morgan show 10 days before the conclave started I called, I said Prevost is the dark horse he wasn't in any betting pool if you look at Italian TV nowhere The reason is not only is the... Okay just got to stop for a second He didn't call it

1:56:08 He mentioned a couple of names and he said there were several dark horses. He did not call it I'm just saying that because i got it wrong but i got it right once before, he didn't call anything Let me back up some facts on Piers Morgan's show 10 days before the conclave started I called I said Prevost is the dark horse he wasn't in any betting pool if you look at TANYON TV nowhere The reason is not only has he been a cardinal less than two years He was the perfect acolyte for Bergoglio to continue his thing on the front page of The New York Times says that today, if you read the whole huge front-page story. More importantly because our efforts and other – because the traditional church in America is on fire with vocations and young people and vibrancy and urgency

1:56:53 that we help cut off the money going to the Vatican. And so, the Vatican... The Wall Street Journal had a huge article this week that showed the Vatican has tons of assets but they're illiquid They need the American cash They would never put a traditional American in their role because they think the American church has too much power Prevost what is gonna be the contact for the big American donors? No I think he's right! I think he nails it with that I don't know how a private election can be rigged I don't know about that, but... Well, I like the way he put it. Yeah well speaking of rigged elections let's go check out Romania having conceded defeat on Sunday night George Simeon following pressure from his supporters on TikTok will now sue to get the presidential election results cancelled citing interference by France International observers saw interference

CHAPTER 33 / 53 Discussion

Romania Presidential Election, French Intelligence Interference

Romanian presidential candidate George Simion is suing to cancel election results, citing interference from French intelligence services. Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov accused the French DGSE of asking him to ban conservative voices in Romania prior to the vote. While French intelligence has denied the allegations, the situation has sparked concerns about EU-wide manipulation of social media algorithms to influence national elections.

romania· george simion· pavel durov· telegram· france· dgse

1:57:49 not only from the Republic of Moldova, but also from the French state. Social media was manipulated and algorithms were used to influence Romanian citizens." The pro-Russia candidate was relaying accusations by Pavel Durov cofounder of Telegram who said he's willing to testify. Durov took to social media platform X on Sunday to directly accuse French intelligence services. This spring at the Salon des Batailles in the Hôtel de Criant, Nicolas Lerner, head of French intelligence asked me to ban conservative voices in Romania ahead of elections I refused we didn't block protesters in Russia Belarus or Iran We won't start doing it in Europe Allegations which French intelligence which has admitted meeting Durov on several occasions

1:58:37 took the unusual step of denying. The Directorate General for External Security strongly refutes allegations that it made any requests for accounts in relation to any electoral process, to be banned. I totally believe they did that! It's unbelievable Yeah well that guy even said before he said France is meddling here He said it uh...the first three times they voted You're gonna just keep voting and keep voting until they get the right guy in there. It's worse than the EU! Well, it's pretty much the same people running this show Yeah, that's great. Look at the world around you man. We're podcasting Everybody is happy

CHAPTER 34 / 53 Discussion

Media Complicity, Modern Podcast Apps, Pandora

The segment criticizes legacy media figures like Jake Tapper for their proximity to intelligence officials, noting his attendance at a deputy CIA director's birthday party. Listeners are encouraged to move away from platforms like Pandora, which reportedly removed the show, and use "modern podcast apps" connected to the Podcast Index. These independent platforms are promoted as the only way to ensure access to content without the threat of deplatforming.

jake tapper· cia· podcasts· pandora· deplatforming· podcast index

1:59:22 Except Joe, or that daddy long legs. He's hiding out somewhere. Daddy Long Legs thing since you brought it up has just been bugging me now. Yeah it's very annoying because they have these two jokers and especially Tapper has been on show after show after show after show yeah and not one reporter as even broached the topic of a fake Biden because if they broach that topic and the mask story comes out, well then no one will believe anything again. Everybody will be a dude and a mask. What you're saying is the gentleman's agreement with intelligence agencies to shut up? We know that Tapper was at the birthday parties we had one of our producers catered the deputy CIA director's birthday party and Tapper was there hanging out not reporting

2:00:16 Oh, I think yeah. Gentleman's agreement which is like hey Jake look at this picture. Get out of my head in your mouth! And with that i want to thank you for your courage say in the morning to you the man who put the sea and the Cali commie say hello to my friend on the other end one the only Mr John C Yeah well in the morning to you Mr Adam Curry In the morning all ships and seaboots on the ground feeding their subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there. In the morning to the trolls in the troll room when we count ya. Come here we go counting it up 1874. That's not too bad, it is Memorial Day weekend right? Isn't this the long weekend? Today is Thursday! That's what I mean everyone has taken the Thursday and Friday off they're already on vacation no one's working anymore. Well smart money! Smart money... Not podcasters! No no no those trolls are in the troll room you can find them at trollroom.io and many of them may be listening to a live stream on a modern podcast app which you definitely want to try by going to podcastsapps

2:01:17 It's apps.com because you'll never find a show being deplatformed from there, because it is all connected to the podcast index which I personally make sure does not deplatform or remove anybody or anything and just to prove my point Brennan sent me an email Monday He says, Pandora disappointed me this morning. I went like I do every Monday to listen to Sunday's show and none of the shows are on there at all! I'm not sure if they cut the cord but I figured you should know Like Brennan how many times so we have to tell you get a modern podcast that Pandora? Are they still in business yeah i think their public company

2:02:07 So no, get a modern podcast app. Support independent developers! Don't kowtow to big tech! Don't kowtow to big tech? That should be the motto of this show Yeah I don't use a phone You don't even have one But if you had one it would be one of those nice Samsung flip phones We all know that All those Samsung flip phones are unbelievable Yeah they are Stop texting me people Texting on my light phone of When we do this show, you notice no commercials. Did you notice that? No commercials, no pre-rolls... We're talking about something and talking about the Pope and then all of sudden GOLD! Yeah, you can get gold for your IRA Get these gold coins These gold coins You're only going to pay 50% above spot price in gold But hey they are limited edition, get them now while stocks last We'll help you roll over your IRA old person

CHAPTER 35 / 53 Discussion

Gold Scams, Native Advertising, Specialty Coins

Mainstream conservative commentators like Bill O'Reilly and Mark Levin are criticized for using "native ads" to sell specialty gold coins at prices significantly above the spot market value. These "limited edition" coins are described as a potential scam targeting elderly listeners who want to roll over their IRAs. The hosts recommend buying standard gold bars or reputable collectible coins at market price rather than through high-commission podcast sponsors.

gold· bill o'reilly· mark levin· native advertising· ira· specialty coins

2:03:11 You know I've been wanting to put a series of clips together of the segues that these like Mark Levin for example he'll be talking about something very serious and segue right into a gold plug. Bill O'Reilly is the worst so he has the Bill O'Reilly morning update And so he has another guy, so he says there's the Bill O'Reilly update for Monday. Here's Chip and Chip will tell you what's going on. So Bill O'Reilly is not there. Chip does the news and now we'll be right back after a Bill talks to you

2:03:50 Troubling times right now. We know what's gonna happen with the tariffs, with the economy that's why I trust gold! And he does it like a news story It's like a news story slip- it's like a native ad and just slips it right in and What happens is you wind up buying specialty gold coins which which are limited by the people selling you the gold coins because they mint them. Now, they do that through Australia so they don't get in trouble for this obvious... I'm just going to call it a scam. I mean, I'm not an expert but that's my opinion and so you're paying 25% above the price of the actual gold contained in the coin

2:04:33 And I think the podcaster gets, you know 5% or something. It's like there is so much money going around this person. There has got to be good money! We are stupid Well we're not stupid Well no we're not We are honest. I for example when i was in high school used to be known as Honest John Exactly and why was that in high school specifically? Because that's where I couldn't start to remember things. Okay, it was pretty funny No, so we don't do that. There's no levels no hoops to jump through We just you know if you want a bite is you want it by premium gold? Yes collect classic Americana gold real Liberty coins of ones America minted back in the 1800s they're around yeah and find it reputable dealer who'll sell them to you at the market price of what these collectible coins are for

2:05:33 or Spot gold price. But this being sold to people... Yeah, you can just buy gold if you want to. Buy a bar of gold! Exactly. But this is being sold to people who have no idea about the mnemastic value I'm not recommending people by a bar of gold because the only guy know that ever bought a bar of gold ended up losing it in some divorce settlement or something And I bought it at the time $750 an ounce It's tripled more than that

CHAPTER 36 / 53 Discussion

AI Vibe Coding, Darren O'Neill Art, Pro-Mortalist

A host describes spending 250 hours "vibe coding" an AI project, concluding that AI requires "almighty intelligence" to produce quality results. The discussion transitions to the show's album art, featuring a piece by Digital2112man titled "Pro-Mortalist" which depicts the hosts at a "Climate Desk." The hosts joke about their desire to see artists other than the frequent winner Darren O'Neill featured on the leaderboard.

ai· vibe coding· darren o'neill· digital2112man· climate desk· artwork

2:06:14 It's quadrupled. Yeah Oh man Don't worry, the person who got it squandered it right away so... Anyway, one of the many ways that you can support us for the work that we do is well there's three ways actually time talent and treasure. And we always love to treasure We do need the treasure however doing stuff for this show is also important so when someone does a boots on the ground hitting people in the mouth calling out people as douchebags for not donating all these things are high importance

2:06:51 But we also have the artists and the artists sometimes prompt jockeys. But again, I've made it a...I have a statement about AI. Uh-oh! Yeah, I have a statement about it because you know... A statement? Is that something you read or is on piece of paper? No, It's not on a piece of paper as I've been vibe coding and I finally got my project done spent about 250 hours any competent coder could have done this in 10 And it's true. And the worst is like, the AI will take you down a rabbit hole and will not... It doesn't remember. It has no common sense. It makes mistakes that if you don't catch them if you're not reading or if you just like fix this, fix this, fix this, it winds up ruining everything! You better have backup copies otherwise you have to go say, No, this worked. That's interesting. Now you broke it

2:07:45 So, you need AI to use AI. In order to use artificial intelligence, you need almighty intelligence! That is my statement and if you got that... like digital 212 man, then you can come up with something decent. But it's not just gonna do it by itself for yourself. Not a single AI will create an image or code or marketing document or resume or anything if you don't know what you're doing, it's not gonna do a good job and that would be... That's what everyone says. And it will immediately... That why the artists that do the best AI art

2:08:26 Our artists. Like Darren O'Neill, a true artist! He's been using his easel and oils ever since he was a child. Digital2112man brought us the artwork for episode 1765 we titled that Pro-Mortalist And this is Adam & John at the Climate Desk And we look very happy about it. Yes, we do! Which I wasn't crazy about it... No you didn't like the piece really. I'm the one who put... I would take full credit for promoting this piece and the reason I used as a rationale is what? We were sick of Darren winning all the time. It's one thing that's like as long as it's not Darren

2:09:08 You did say that. I think actually heard you say that. He hasn't, by the way still on the all-time leaderboard he's moving up but not quite there yet. I just liked the composition of the piece. I thought it was pretty, it was joyful and had a... which is important Yes It was...it just was cute! It was a cute piece. I really like this piece. I personally liked The Beach Walk which has no agenda in shells on the beach Of course that totally was a callback to Comey

CHAPTER 37 / 53 Discussion

James Comey, 86 Shells Beach Photo

James Comey's appearance on Stephen Colbert's show is deconstructed, specifically his claim that he found the number "86" written in shells on a beach. Comey used the photo as a "clever political message" to suggest he was being "86ed" from the government. Critics point out that the story felt staged and that Comey's wife, whom he credited with the idea, reportedly never worked in the restaurant industry as he claimed.

2:09:44 Comey. And you said it was too small and didn't read it? Well, that's because here is why I saw that piece and thought oh that's kind of a cute piece but I didn't notice it was shells which... Because it wasn't obvious because you had to blow it up to see Oh! Shells! I didn't get the joke until you actually explained it cause it was too small The shells are too small The joke has lost Because of the sizing thing. The good news is because of this discussion I can play the donation bonus clip how about that? I'm all in This is Comey

2:10:24 On the... with Colbert on the, what is the show? The Colbert Show. The... Colbert this evening something show. To him running, Colbert running cover for Comey This is so... this is... No, Colbert's pathetic 56 seconds of lies What happened you walking on a beach And you saw this on the beach? Yeah, my wife and I were walking on the beach and saw those numbers in shells on the beach. You didn't do this somebody else did it! Yes somebody else did it we're on a walk preparing for this week roll out of my book she looked at it said why'd someone put their address in the sand?!

2:11:02 And then we stood at it trying to figure, looked at it trying to figure out what it was and she'd long been a server in restaurants. She said you know what I think it is? Yeah! I think it's a reference to restaurants when you would 86 something in a restaurant right off the menu yeah I said no I remember as a kid You'd say eighty-six To get out of a place this place stinks let's eighty six it. Well I was a bartender you would 86 a customer if they were getting drunk like that's 86 on this Like give him a low proof alcohol or something like that yeah and so I said I think it's a clever political message and she said you should take a picture of it I said sure and then she said you should Instagram that and boom. And boom, I'm on all the shows to promote my stupid book He always gets the book mentioned in early but the thing is some I forgot one of his shows I heard this that they researched his wife and she's never worked in a restaurant bullcrap Well he blamed his wife which is low

Kilpatrick Bread Bakery, San Francisco Nostalgia

A donor's note triggers a nostalgic look at the Kilpatrick Bread Bakery in San Francisco during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The bakery was famous for its "air-bread" and for producing McDonald's buns with specific score marks to make them look risen. The memory serves as a contrast to the current state of the Bay Area, which the donor describes as a "crap hole" compared to its former character.

Circumcision from Blaine Washington sends us $200, associate executive producer and he has a very long note which i'm going to have to edit on-the-fly but it says ITM gents John you mentioned The Kilpatrick's Bread Bakery in San Francisco and your Bill Maher segment a few shows ago about how fast food corporations don't change their winning recipes

2:18:46 You made a couple of comments. First, dismissing Maher's inept observation that recipes don't change then a seg into the early air-bread craze of the 60s and how the McDonald's buns made at the Kilpatrick Bakery would get score marks to make them look risen! Your trip down memory lane in the Kilpatrick Bread Bakery jarred some ancient memory in my head!" It's a long memory. At the risk of sounding like a boomer, you're there this is a boomer note I had indeed toured the Kilpatrick factory with my folks as some sort of get-the-kids out of the house and try to make it educational day probably 70 or 71 I distinctly remember getting the paper Kilpatrick bakery hat like The Workers wore at the end of tour and a loaf of magical Kilpatrick airbread puffy and vacous as God intended

2:19:35 It is said the Kilpatrick aficionados would deride Wonder Bread as inedible, brushing it off as an inferior product. And then he talks about how he was slipping back in time you could smell it... He says thank you for taking me back to those halcyon days of the late 60s early 70s of the SF Bay Area. It's a crap hole nothing like it used to be then what a wonderful time to be alive in the bay long before big tech took any shred of character left from my beloved boyhood home Well, here's your well-deserved San Francisco Kilpatrick Bread Bakery shoutout donation.

CHAPTER 41 / 53 Discussion

Dan Bongino, Jeffrey Epstein Suicide Reversal

Dan Bongino's stance on the Jeffrey Epstein case is scrutinized, comparing his 2022 demands for the "truth" about Epstein's death to his recent claim that Epstein definitely killed himself. Bongino now dismisses the "who killed Epstein" question as a distraction, focusing instead on the client list and tapes. The hosts mock the reversal, using the term "fake and gay" to describe the shifting narrative.

dan bongino· jeffrey epstein· cia· bill clinton· client list· suicide

2:24:18 Oh, 2022. Dan Bongino 2022 Do you need a harp to go back in time or? You could do that I think the harp would actually be nice A nice touch Here we go going back in time Dan Bongino 2022 Listen um That Jeffrey Epstein story is a big deal Please do not let that story go Keep your eye on this I want you to keep the heat on this case, folks. There are a lot of people who are knee deep in the Washington swamp who are not telling you the truth about serious allegations out there that Epstein may have had video and audio

2:24:58 people out there doing things they shouldn't have been doing. And you should be asking yourself the question, how is it that all these people? The CIA director, the Obama fixer Bill Clinton all intersected paths with Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein isn't with us anymore and nobody seems to want to talk about it outside of a few entrepreneurial media outlets saying hey this is a big deal And we come back. Wow, Dan Bongino pretty hot there about the who killed Epstein. We had songs we had jokes we had t-shirts Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself everybody was saying it! Now here's Dan Bongino last week. He killed himself again you want me to get I've seen the whole file he killed himself

2:25:44 What's interesting about this is, this is such a distraction. Who cares? Show me the tapes! Show me what happened! Show me the client list! Show me anything! Now everyone's running around like, oh we can't trust him... Oh shills everything's in shit probably Trump! Trump's not bad blblblllblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblblbl What do the kids say? Fake and gay. G-E-A...G-E-Y-H. Fake and gay! So NPR did a thing, they attacked Doge. Oh no! A Doge attack?! I got a two parter. Okay. I guess the first parter is faux attack. The first part of the two parter is faux attack

CHAPTER 42 / 53 Discussion

DOGE Attack, NPR Government Efficiency Report

NPR published a report attacking Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), claiming it has targeted 40 agencies for elimination, including AmeriCorps and the Truman Scholarship Foundation. The report highlights several lawsuits filed against DOGE, with judges ruling that the president cannot unilaterally shut down entities created by Congress. The hosts criticize NPR's framing, arguing that the media is protecting government waste and bureaucracy.

doge· elon musk· npr· government waste· lawsuits· truman scholarship

2:26:36 I thought i corrected that before i shipped it in. Yeah you sent it with those uh with those other clips, never wrong! You have two shipments man, I don't know who got the other one but it wouldn't me. We report on the broad reach of a government effort set up by Elon Musk The ad hoc department of government efficiency keeps finding parts of federal government to try to shrink Hold on, Ad Hoc is a lie? It's the digital services department, isn't it? That's not ad hoc. I think pretty much yeah, that's a lie No ad hoc makes it you made it up as your going on let's just put a come on kids Let's do a show we report in the broad reach of a government effort set up by Elon Musk The Ad Hoc Department of Government Efficiency keeps finding new parts of federal government to try to shrink

2:27:20 A new analysis by NPR found at least 40 agencies and groups that Doge has tried to cut in recent weeks. NPR's Stephen Fowler is covering all of this, and is on the line. Hi there, Stephen! Good morning So who's getting a knock on the door here? Well, the knock is often an email from one of a few Doge staffers based in the General Services Administration. They're seeking to learn more about operations and to embed a team within the organization. Now some of them have already been effectively dismantled by Doge like the Millennium Challenge Corporation. Some of them have been targeted for elimination by the president in his proposal for next year's budget like AmeriCorps

2:27:59 The outreach has been to this constellation of commissions, boards and entities that are all small and independent. Well how have some of these dozens of entities responded? After the email in many of these places DOJ has moved quickly at the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation for example in less than one week an email led to a video call led to an in-person meeting and now a DOJ team is being onboarded On April 17 alone, DOJ staffers scheduled meetings with officials from the Truman Scholarship Foundation, the Denali Commission, the Office of Navajo and Hopi Indian Relocation and the U.S. Access Board — that's according to two sources not authorized to speak about DOJ's operations. I guess we should mention different laws apply to different organizations which themselves are organized differently. Could they just say no thanks to DOJ's requests?

2:28:50 Some of them already have because these Doge folks have also tried to reach out to organizations that aren't government agencies at all, like the private nonprofit Vera Institute of Justice. The Independent Nonprofit Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the Government Accountability Office which is part of the legislative branch. What did I learn here? You learned that they don't care. It's like what you learned is nobody cares, that they're mocking this basically... Nobody wants to do anything about all this government waste but they bitch and moan about the ridiculous deficit that we have. Yes yes But okay let's play part two How legal is any of this there are more than a dozen lawsuits that have been filed related to Doge efforts at these small organizations that say it's not legal

2:29:39 By and large, these are places that have been created by Congress—many of them non-profits—and nearly all of them do have their funding and functions spelled out by law. And some of those cases explicitly limiting the president's power to interact with him. That means President Trump can't always go in and fire people and make changes on his own In the last week, a judge ordered to halt two Doge-related shutdowns at the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, and the Minority Business Development Agency. And this week, a different federal judge found Doge's takeover of the U.S. Institute of Peace was illegal

2:30:15 Stephen, what does all of this add to your understanding of what Doge is doing? Well President Trump has a very clear mission of what a government remade in his image looks like. It's smaller there's less bureaucracy and those people and institutions who are left answer directly to him and his viewpoints calling him God there with a maid in his image? Yeah, this was the point. Oh they want to make it as image and hey they weren't loyalists I mean it's like you're the president you've been elected thus and then you expect what and you expect people to pay any attention You want people that go along with your program? No. We don't want that, we want independence! We wanna do what we wanna do. The president doesn't matter. This is ridiculous and they don't support any of it. Let's do a little tech news... The media does not support anything positive. Well, no. We're not supporting them, we're moving to podcasts

OpenAI, Johnny Ive, AI Summer Reading List

Sam Altman's OpenAI reportedly purchased Johnny Ive's AI company for $6.5 billion. In a related story, several newspapers including the Chicago Sun-Times published a summer reading list generated by AI that included completely fabricated books by famous authors like Ray Bradbury. The writer responsible, Marco Buscaglia, apologized for the "huge mistake," which the hosts use to illustrate the unreliability of AI-generated content.

sam altman· johnny ive· openai· ai· ray bradbury· chicago sun-times

2:31:14 Let me see, Sam Altman OpenAI has bought Johnny Ives AI company. Yeah, I saw that for 6.5 billion dollars nice work if you can get it That's pretty nice my favorite artificial intelligence story why have to actually my favorite was the AI generated summer reading list Did you catch this story? No I didn't but it already sounds good. Some newspapers around the country including Chicago Sun-Times and at least one edition of the Philadelphia Inquirer have published a syndicated summer book reading list that includes made up books by famous authors

2:32:00 That's the great thing about AI. If it can do art, it is making stuff up as a good... It's making it up! The list has no byline but writer Marco Buscaglia has claimed responsibility for it says it was partially generated by artificial intelligence and an email to NPR Buscaglia writes huge mistake on my part has nothing to this my bad Huge mistake on my part. It has nothing to do with the Sun-Times! They trust that the content they purchase is accurate, and I betrayed that trust. It's on me 100%!" There it is. There it is. We just talked about it when you say 100%. Bullcrap. Unbelievable. Let's see... were there any uh... Do we have any of these fun books that they had? Yeah, you have to have the list. Yeah, I have the list here.

2:32:57 Uh, but these are authors I don't know. Yeah well because probably half of them were made up. No the... Well Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury? Is that a real book? I don't know. Boy I know Ray Bradbury! Yeah, he's real. Or dead unfortunately. I got to have breakfast with him once With Ray Bradbury? Wasn't he a science fiction guy? He is a great guy! He gave a speech in Napa at some event that i was attending and he's a great public speaker and has a certain kind of style that it very easy to take

2:33:34 And it's easy to copy. I had breakfast with him the next day, yacked about what a yak about and he was just a charming guy, nice guy. Oh nice! And he gave me a book autographed it up. I have a tip for DH Unplugged which you can hear on Tuesdays live on Tuesdays and listen to the podcast on Wednesday. Yeah six o'clock Eastern No no eight o'clock Eastern isn't? What's six? No, I think it's nine o'clock. He's trying to clock cycle Pacific Yeah with that Horowitz guy yeah there you guys hitting on your wife my wife Here's here's my tip. I would say a long term short on Alphabet

CHAPTER 44 / 53 Discussion

Google AI Mode, Alphabet Stock Tip

Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced "AI Mode," a new search feature powered by the Gemini model that provides conversational answers instead of traditional blue links. The hosts argue this is a "PR nightmare" and a "dumb" move that ruins the concept of SEO and increases search costs sevenfold. They suggest a long-term "short" on Alphabet stock, predicting that the removal of links will alienate users and advertisers.

google· alphabet· ai mode· gemini· sundar pichai· seo

2:34:24 They have finally done the worst thing they could possibly do to their core business. Business now with Charles Pellegrain, he is standing with Google making some big announcements at its developers conference on Tuesday this is especially isn't it Charles with regards to artificial intelligence That's right. Since chat JPTs come onto the scene in 2022, there has been a mad scramble in Silicon Valley to try and integrate AI-powered chat bots into many features and there have been concerns that Google was lagging behind. Well, the tech giant clearly tried to alleviate those fears on Tuesday by saying they are rolling out a new search feature for US users

2:35:04 called AI mode. It's basically a new tab within Google search engine that users can activate and which answers questions in the conversational style of an AI chat bot, and does not include a list of blue links like we've been accustomed to for so long. The new feature will be powered by the AI model that Google has developed itself called Gemini. Take a listen to Google CEO Sundar Pichai. It's a total reimagining of search with more advanced reasoning You can ask AI mode longer and more complex queries like this. In fact, users have been asking much longer queries two to three times the length of traditional searches and you can go further with follow-up questions all of this is available today as a new tab right in search. This is the dumbest thing they could do

2:35:56 You don't make stock tips that was a dotted real tip that you gave? No, those are just me. It was just joking around Yeah I'm just joking around Don't... And by the way most people were buying heavily into Google for some reason Yeah well So you probably eat it if you follow your advice Knowing that no I'm just looking at what it costs I mean its seven times the cost to perform an AI search There's no links so they ruin the whole concept of SEO No, they're... I don't know what to make their price. It makes no sense to me! Unless they start charging for it? They're gonna have to dream up some way of making money off this thing. I don't know how they are going to do it

2:36:39 Well, right now and of course some of this obviosity of his commentary which included oh they're asking really long structured questions. Yes if you're asking if you working with AI you ask long question questions because that's what the AI is expected to hear and the funny thing is during their very early days of Google before they got Their act together in the 90s, late 90's when I had to and Sergey Brin used to come on. Was that the late 90's when they got their act together?

2:37:16 Feels like yeah, I think yeah later late 90s. It was the late nineties They got their act together and there people were still using Yahoo until about for most of the 90s hmm and Because I always asked everybody about it So what she's in Google? It was Sergei Brin used to say you should write a complicated question that as your search criteria Yeah Well, try that. I think it's dumb but thing is dumb you're gonna get a lot of stories Google told me to do this google did this google did that It's a PR PR nightmare i tell you what its gonna be for them because they always have inferior technology at some level when it comes to like AI You can tell by their ai art where they are American revolutionists all black blacks yeah

Zero Point Energy, Magnet Ingestion Ban

A video from a Canadian producer allegedly shows a "zero point energy" machine powered by magnets that continues to run without wires. Coincidentally, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is pushing for stricter regulations on high-powered magnets, citing thousands of ingestion cases in children. The hosts suggest that the move to ban magnets may be a way to suppress alternative energy technologies.

2:38:06 Did you see the videos from that producer who sent to us about the guy, I think he's in Canada and he has a free zero point energy machine made of magnets? No. So he shows this machine... Did we talk about it on our last show? Yes someone donated and told us look out for this So, the guy has this machine. There's two gears on one side and he has a piece of wood stuck in it pulls the wood out and the thing just starts going and going and going then puts the wood back in and stops And then he dismantles the machine on video right before you to show there is no wires! There are no wires It's all just magnetic energy I love this stuff. It's very fascinating By coincidence if there such a thing This video...this news story pops up

2:39:01 that they're trying to get rid of magnets altogether. the US reported between 522 and 2,000 magnet ingestion cases each year since 2016. We've been warning you about this for a long time now in 2016 a ban on high-powered magnets was overturned but in 2022 the Consumer Product Safety Commission set strict rules on the size and strength of loose magnets that could fit in a child's airway experts

Harvard Magna Carta Discovery, David Carpenter

Harvard University discovered that a document purchased for $27.50 in 1946 is actually an original 1300 Magna Carta issued by King Edward I. The discovery was made by Professor David Carpenter of King's College London while browsing Harvard's online archives. Authentic Magna Carta documents have previously fetched over $21 million at auction, making this a significant find for the university's law library.

magna carta· harvard· david carpenter· king edward i· archives· auction

2:39:41 say the new studies suggest the safer regulations may not go far enough. Kids, stop eating magnets. That's a tip! All right five minute warning John you're up you can play your last clips. What was my last clip? I don't know what do you got? Well like he played the dumb clips this is it this is a clip which just encourages archivists and hoarders to be on the lookout and this also tells me that Harvard is either the luckiest group or they are there dumb because it took them this long to figure out what was going on This is the Magna Carta clips. Oh yeah, this was an interesting story In 1946 Harvard University purchased what it thought was just a very old copy of the Magna Carta from a bookseller in London for $27 and 50 cents Now 80 years later that document has been identified as the real deal issued by King Edward I in the year 1300 NPR's Scott Newman has the story

2:40:42 The first version of the Magna Carta was produced in 1215. It outlined the rights of free men and limits to the English monarchy. The Royal Charter of Liberties went through several iterations throughout the 13th century, the last in the year 1300. Although few originals exist today it's considered one of the most important legal documents in history Centuries later, that legacy resurfaced when David Carpenter was searching through the Harvard Law School Library's online archives. The professor of medieval history at King's College London saw an item listed as a copy of the Magna Carta from 1327 so he clicked. And lo and behold what do I see before my eyes but for all the world seemed to me an original of the 1300 Magna Cartas

2:41:31 But he needed to be sure, so he enlisted Nicholas Vincent a fellow professor of medieval history at the University of East Anglia to help. The two approached Harvard with their hunch and requested an ultraviolet scan to get a better look. This is odd story I don't know...I saw it too but didn't... Yeah this was kind of fascinating but it encourages people Be on the lookout. Go to more flea markets! Jonathan Zittrain is a Harvard professor who heads the law library there when he got the request from Carpenter and Vincent, He was intrigued but cautious You've gotta tie together a number of threads To figure out the authenticity of something And it's not always that there's a eureka moment where it's like Ah yes! Zittrain says that without help from UK scholars

2:42:24 Harvard may never have known what a great deal they struck all those years ago to own a treasure of world history. And, of course it makes you wonder... uh gosh what else do we have between the couch cushions? No one knows exactly what Harvard's Magna Carta is worth but in 2007 one authentic document fetched 21.3 million dollars at auction Scott Newman NPR News Yes, this is indeed spurs on the archivist like yourself which leads me to the question. Have you ever come across a gem of a find in your collection days? Yeah! Like what?

Edward Curtis Photograph, Auction House Tips

A host shares a story of purchasing an Edward Curtis original photograph on glass for one dollar at an auction, mistakenly identified by others as a common daguerreotype. The piece is estimated to be worth up to $10,000. The segment provides tips on selling high-value collectibles, emphasizing the need for "thematic auctions" to attract the right collectors and avoid being "ripped off."

edward curtis· daguerreotype· auction· christie's· photography· collectibles

2:43:03 Well, I was at an auction and there was a... Someone's auctioning off what I looked at. And so this is a daguerreotype. I should bid on it and nobody's bidding on it. What's a daguerreotype? Daguerreotype. It's the type of early photo. But it wasn't a daguerreotype at all! It was an Edward Curtis original photograph on, a gold photograph on glass. Edward Curtis would be... He's an old photographer from the 1800s and this piece is worth it probably was worth $10,000. Whoa! One dollar into ten thousand dollars? Yeah You know what that is? That's better than Bitcoin

2:43:49 Well that's the only real deal I've been holding on to this thing guys. I haven't gotten $10,000 out of it. I'm sorry, just drowned you out. Yeah, I just said I never haven't sold it so i still worth 10 thousand supposedly I mean I might get this might be only get five but whatever was only paid a dollar which is the point that's gets groovy man um that I'm very happy for you now were you where would you go to sell that another flea market no no they would go through an auction house and good Christie and Chrissy they're probably calling me right now he's got an original yeah day you have to get into one of these

2:44:30 Dude, I've auctioned stuff off and to do auctions right you have to find a thematic auction. Yeah yeah so you have like in other words if a big Edward Curtis auction took place where he had a lot of his stuff it attracts all these collectors that's when you get the money otherwise i could get ripped off chipped don't want that But I haven't cashed in. We have some beautiful end of show mixes on the way for you, John's tip of the day we have some dynamite meetup reports but first John is going to thank our donors $50 and above who he didn't mention earlier yes yes Robert G MacArthur starts us off he's in Monmouth Oregon 150

Air Shim Pro XL, John Dvorak Tip of the Day

John Dvorak's "Tip of the Day" recommends the "Air Shim Pro XL," a device used for lifting heavy objects like appliances or pianos an inch or two off the ground. Unlike expensive cabinet jacks, these are affordable air-powered bags that can be pumped up to assist with repairs or moving furniture. Dvorak shares an anecdote about using one to replace a broken caster on a piano.
