About this episode

Mel Gibson faces allegations of a Chantix-induced psychotic break as leaked recordings from Oksana Grigorieva reveal the actor in a state of extreme incoherence. The pharmaceutical side effects of the smoking cessation drug are scrutinized alongside the rising heroin addiction rates in Southern California, where Reckitt Benckiser’s Suboxone has become a lucrative but dependency-forming treatment. These domestic health crises mirror the geopolitical maneuvering in Afghanistan, where the Nevada National Guard’s Agribusiness Development Team oversees poppy cultivation that fuels the global opium trade.

Financial instability takes center stage as Solyndra Inc. cancels its IPO following a scathing audit by Price Waterhouse, signaling a major failure for the Obama administration’s green energy loans. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform bill moves toward a final vote, potentially granting the Federal Reserve unprecedented oversight of private banks under the guise of consumer protection. Meanwhile, international tensions rise as four U.S. Senators, including Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, demand an investigation into BP’s alleged role in the release of the Lockerbie bomber to secure Libyan oil contracts. In the Gulf of Mexico, Admiral Thad Allen monitors critical pressure tests on the Deepwater Horizon containment cap as fears of a sub-seafloor casing failure persist.

Spain secures a World Cup victory predicted by the hosts as a scripted necessity to quell civil unrest, while Paul the Octopus officially enters retirement. Canadian inventor John Hutchison lists his anti-gravity laboratory for sale on eBay for $50,000, offering the public a chance to replicate the electromagnetic fusion of dissimilar materials. The episode concludes with a look at the Freedelity national ID program in Belgium and the suspicious murder-suicide of Coppell Mayor Jayne Peters amidst natural gas leasing disputes.

World Cup Final Fixing Theories and Psychic Octopus

Spain defeated the Netherlands in the 2010 World Cup final, an outcome predicted by the hosts based on theories of political necessity and match-fixing. The high number of yellow cards issued by the English referee and the eventual red card in overtime are cited as evidence of a scripted "playbook" to prevent slave revolts in economically distressed Spain. Paul the Octopus, the famous animal oracle, has reportedly been retired from the prediction business following the tournament's conclusion.

00:00 You're right, it'll probably be point of discussion all over the place by a bunch of morons. Adam Curry John C. Dvorak It's Thursday July 15th 2010 time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination episode 217 This is no agenda The best bookies in the business! And coming to you from the Hilltop Watchtower, Crackpot Command Center and Gitmo Nation West here in the People's Republic of Southern California. In the morning I'm Adam Curry There is no oil in the San Francisco Bay. I am John C. Dvorak It's crackpot and buzzkill...in the morning!

00:40 In the morning to everybody and good morning to you and in the morning to the ships at sea. And all of the human resources listening to us live now at noagendastream.com, and in the chat room at noagendachat.com Hello Human Resources! Are you nice and charged? Your government needs you today. Yowza! Hey man I was mentioning on the pre-stream there before we got started that we actually have not spoken with each other since Sunday's show and thats great. Great Yeah its awesome Last night I went to bed. I was actually excited Oh, I get to do the show tomorrow get to talk to John You know it's like nice so I thought you had to get up early and pick up your daughter No that was yesterday yesterday And you haven't got them all edge would say you wouldn't pick her up They lost our luggage and you haven't gotten it back yet Yeah, yeah usually comes within 24 hours well It's not 20 fits like now its 12 hours is not quite 24 hours yet what airline

01:32 KLM, but unfortunately the baggage handling in the US side because they're now a big consortium with Air France and Northwest. It's handled by Delta so that's... Delta I hate Delta Yeah it doesn't sound really positive But they were able to track it down that actually what was on the plane and they know what bin number it was in So that's a positive They say well, maybe someone took it off the the belt and took it home by mistake And like and you know Christina's like dad. It was 29 kilos I don't think you know people can make a mistake with a bag based upon what it looks like but not when You pick it up me like that's not so that had 29 kilos of dope in it Poppies my friend nothing about poppies now his shoes shoes

02:26 Well, she's here for two weeks and you know, she needs a young woman needs her outfits man. Here's what the irony is Now there's a couple of things possible one There was no baggage and you're gonna have to buy all kinds of cool stuff I actually already offered that said no. No, this is my collection This is my cool stuff now. She yeah. No, that's not it So what's the other one? That was the other one too John even though it's been Like four days now, I do think we need to just stop briefly and just say we got it right on the World Cup. We are the best bookies in the business you can count on us! Yeah

03:09 No, we nailed it. The joke of it was we finally agreed on what was going to happen and why... Well I pretty much got right to the very end but you beat me eventually because you actually nailed the score cause I was thinking the scores and I thought that they were going to run up the score but they couldn't get a goal And so when it turns out that uh We got the whole scenario figured out accurately and you actually had the score You could have cleaned up. You know what's interesting is now that I was watching because, I mean...I don't think you or either of us watched any games. I think i watched a little bit of USA and I saw the last five minutes of Holland semi-finals but three more than three weeks before the final I said look Spain and it's because its fixed and because Spain isn't in biggest disarray right now and they need to win so that the slaves don't revolt

04:06 And that was the only theory based on nothing else and with no proof of anything just a theory. Now I will point out that Spain by the way, learned later they were the European champions so not like a sucky team but I was wondering... No none of their teams were good except for US where there's a couple... Nah nah they weren't that bad but i was thinking how do they fix these games? and now I figured it out Because you know it's with these yellow cards. So when you have one yellow card, if you commit another foul then two yellows equals a red and you get kicked off. And so I mean come on de Jong the Dutch guy who karate kicked Bruce Lee the Spanish player? I think there were some players that possibly could have been committing fouls on purpose. The ref who was an English ref

04:54 Former police officer, you know he maybe I think was the most yellow the most penalty cards ever Or foul cards ever in a World Cup game So he was handing him out like candy left and right and of course You know the minute that happens then everyone has to slow down because you can't have your good players You know getting kicked off of the field because when you're off then you play with it with a guy less So people are drawing files. People are commuting files That's a very easy way to fix the game and as it went on I was like, you know What's gonna happen? And in fact, I even called you I did call you during the game I said someone's gonna get kicked off the field and it happened almost as I said in overtime

05:36 And at that point, the Spanish almost had nothing to lose but to go and try and get the goal and not go into penalty kicks for sudden death. So the whole thing was almost playbook the way it looked to me. Playbook! Yeah Yeah, if I was a fan of that game after listening to us and watching that game. I would never watch it again. And the funny thing is another part of the prediction kind of came true because The Netherlands you know hey this is the third time they've lost the final game in the World Cup first times 74 second times 78 I think

06:19 and they came close in, I don't know 84. I really don't know all the stats but i think it's the third time and they lost and immediately all the good trained slaves of Gitmo Nation Lowlands turned around and said well you know what we were second that wasn't bad yay for us! We're a second and it was like everyone celebrating their second yeah I was watching at the news report and I was looking at some reports oh must be Queen's Day In the Netherlands, because I'm seeing all these people stacked up around those canals and then I realized it was their celebration of their second place team. They throw stuff at our teams when they come in second. Dude we riot when we win!

07:01 I did get a couple of notes from people saying, you know. I wasn't really on board with you guys but now that i saw what happened... You know? I've got to question the New Orleans Saints winning the Super Bowl Of course so that came on the heels of Katrina Was that game fix and then.. Well thats a... The guy said that today! I saw that note and I said look it was the best... What do you think? It was a feel good story! It was a story! Cinderella Story! People were talking about it as a Cinderella story! It was unbelievable Like a fairy tale. It was a fairy tale, literally an actual fairy tale! Ah it's amazing so I think we should continue to do this John and we could actually make some real money if we... We just need one of the sports books that we can bet on. Yes man in Gitmo Nation East in the UK you can walk into any corner store almost and bet its amazing out there yeah thats why they have you rigged

07:57 It's awesome. I don't know what next big thing is, uh... Who knows? ...that it would come up that it would be obviously fixed because some of these things are just you're not going to see it happen or they're gonna be rigged in such a way that it's like point shaving or something unless you actually know in advance but when we have these feel-good stories that show up Yeah, you gotta question them That's the one I think he got too bad on And psychic Paul The Octopus now that he knows were on this scene He's retired They've taken him out of, they decommissioned him. He's no longer in the business of predicting. They should have a little sign, NoAgendaShow.com on his tank. Just go to those guys and they know what's going on. It was rigged. Find out who those guys are that were doing that and you're gonna find it the guys you want to stay in touch with yeah

So we're actually, it's kind of cool way... We're sponsoring virtual racing teams with that I think we get virtual blowjobs from the virtual pit lane girls as well but yeah oh by the way that makes a virtual mess that's one thing we lost out on As happy as i was about Spain

CHAPTER 03 / 29 Discussion

Mel Gibson, Chantix Side Effects, and Russian Gold Diggers

Mel Gibson is allegedly suffering from severe psychological side effects caused by the smoking cessation drug Chantix, according to an analysis of leaked phone recordings. The recordings, released by Oksana Grigorieva via Radar Online, capture Gibson in a state of incoherence and rage that mirrors documented cases of Chantix-induced psychosis. The hosts suggest Gibson should resume smoking nicotine immediately to stabilize his mental state and avoid further personal disaster.

mel gibson· chantix· oksana grigorieva· nicotine· smoking cessation

13:27 Somebody else is taking one of these crazy drugs. I would first of all, I have to hit the jingle because it does fall into the category So the airwaves are polluted if everywhere Polluted I tell you with Mel Gibson Mel Gibson Who has been clearly set up? By this Russian woman. And by the way, she's been married... I think her third husband but fifth almost like marriage as she was with Timothy Dalton and the James Bond guy and She had a kid with him and you know, she got out of Russia by... It just is weird!

14:09 I think Mel actually may be on to something here that she's a gold digger and the fact that she didn't go to the cops for being abused but went to Radar Online is kind of suspect, to say the least. But you know our female producer The Podvay Dore? Yeah. With the huge gazombas? Yeah, the big topped girl Right so she says Adam listen to this Listen to this little bit of the tape So warning warning not entirely safe for work I tried to clip out as much as i could but im not going to beep it like everybody else Listen to what Mel is actually saying in this little snippet Of one of the hours of phone calls apparently that his

14:50 Is the mother of his child as they call her Has taped listen closely to what he says John Hold on are you hearing that John? Yeah, yeah barely but it sounds like wait a minute something that Something must be wrong here hold on a second. Why am I I don't know if that's registering is that yeah It is okay. That's weird hold on let me just check here What are you doing?

15:38 I'm-I want, can people on the... I don't know if everyone can hear it. Something seems wrong with my setup here for some reason. Oh well i can hear it Hold on let me just double check It's worth checking for a moment Needs a little filtering Well that's because he is on the phone here Hold on let me double check Oh there it is okay I see what I was doing wrong Alright Sorry about that Okay lets try again You get the general gist but lets just pull it back couple seconds cause here comes Did you hear it?

16:22 No, what? Listen to what he says. Listen very carefully. You hear it? You want a smoke Yeah the guy's on shantix! It's obvious He's quit smoking and he's saying you make me wanna smoke Oh that's interesting He's on Shantix! He's freaking out I mean no wonder the guys freaking out That should be... He's on Shantics I guarantee you Mel Gibson is on Shantics And he immediately needs to stop and he needs to smoke he needs to light up Because he's freaking out. Something bad is really gonna happen! Someone needs to get the mail and tell him to smoke, and stop the chantics that's the only way out for him because if you listen to these tapes... The guy is like beside himself And we have had how many people have emailed us John? A dozen. Yeah, this is exactly the behavior Just out of his mind Out of his mind Well hopefully somebody who listens to this show in Hollywood

17:25 You know, it can't be more than three things removed from Mel Gibson. Yeah we... there must be only a couple degrees of separation I agree but yeah I mean someone needs to reach out and just say hey Mel man are you on Chantix by any chance? If he is make him stop immediately the guy is... this will end bad! You know Chantix has ended in murders, in suicides, general disarray of people's lives save Mel smoke smoke smoke Mel smoke Interesting. Well, I'll tell you it sounded like the script from one of his movies Yeah And I thought that too because I did that by baby Enjoy cuz it sounds almost like word for word from that crazy mood give me back my son. Yeah Well, I mean that could also just be you know The lines just popping up in his head again But the guy especially if he's a walking dead with the sham with the shantyx So seriously, I really have a feeling and he only quit a little while ago This is not there was he even said

18:25 I was looking through some interviews, you know the first day that I quit. I was like an axe murderer the second day You didn't want me around power tools, you know stuff like that so I don't know if maybe it Mel is not there's no stranger to medical enhancement and better living through biology That we know so I can easily see where somewhere one of these Hollywood doctors would have said hey mailman. Yeah, just take this shanty It's gonna be great it's gonna be awesome and then he flips out and then of course add to that this woman probably is a horrible person in the gold digger and probably has just been taking his money And the guy's on a verge of Certainly have a mental breakdown but he does he's not coherent He doesn't know what he's doing This is what Shantix does yeah absolutely

19:14 Anyway, I think we'll test the pod bay door nailed it nailed it. Yeah, I agree good work So that would be stopped I would actually you're right not thinking about the more you think about that It'd be actually shocking if it was he wasn't on shantyx. I mean yeah, I mean I listened to all of the uncensored unfiltered stuff and I'm just like okay, you know and in divorce and stuff is difficult and screaming does occur But he's he is actually outside of himself. Yeah And this is the the behavior that Chantix That is a typical of chantix users So I think we need to maybe just need a slogan You know help Mel start smoking again

20:02 Give Mel a toke. He needs he needs some nicotine and he needs to stop the chantix That was my big one for today. That's it we've started Well, I don't have a big one for today but there's a bunch of little ones that are kind of interesting including the... You have to look in your email this evening and find this. Because it came in this morning so I didn't have time to make a clip but just this nonsense about the digital drug? Oh no! I have the report This is funny because hold on let me just uh.. This is the dumbest thing I've ever seen

CHAPTER 04 / 29 Discussion

Digital Drugs and iDosing Media Hoax

Oklahoma law enforcement and school officials are warning parents about "iDosing," a trend where teenagers use binaural beat audio files to supposedly achieve drug-like highs. Despite media reports labeling these audio files as gateway drugs to illegal substance abuse, the phenomenon is characterized as an internet hoax or spoof. YouTube videos of teenagers reacting to the sounds often include tags identifying them as fake or satirical performances.

idosing· digital drugs· binaural beats· oklahoma· gateway drug

20:39 Let me just find where I put that. Oh yeah, I got it here. I have the...I think it's a local Fox News report from Oklahoma And it is outrageously funny. We stand against the latest internet craze, have you ever heard of this? It's called iDosing and websites are luring kids with free downloads of so-called digital drugs which are audio files designed to induce drug like effects Adriana Iwaszynski has just returned from Mustang Live with the details on this alarming new trend that I've got admit I'd never heard of before Kelly parents really need to listen up on this one that's because all

21:17 All kids need to experience these digital drugs are headphones, their computer and an MP3 player. Though the websites that tout them say they're a safe and legal way to get high the theory is it could lead to illegal drug use Digital drugs are all over the internet touting a free, legal safe way to get high. Oh my God! And images of teenagers trying it are all over YouTube It's these images that has a lot of parents educators and law enforcement officials with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics concerned Kids are going to flock to these sites just to see what it is about and it can lead them other places

21:59 It sounds like this and uses binaural or two-tone technology to alter your brain waves and mental state. Kelly Johnson is a parent and teacher, and had never even heard of eye dosing or digital drugs until now. Just scary! Definitely scary...to know that you know just one more thing One more thing to look out for. Recently Mustang Public Schools sent out a letter warning parents about the new trend after several high school students reported having physiological effects after trying one of these digital downloads Students and graduates are still talking about it

22:35 I heard it was like some weird demons and stuff through an iPod or something. And he was just freaking out. People should be concerned about it, its not something that should just be overlooked We had never come across anything like this and anything that is going to cause these physiological effects in a student causes us concern. Mustang schools are doing what they can to put a stop to it, including cracking down on the use of cell phones and other technology while on campus. We try very hard to be vigilant and we ask that the parents you need to be vigilant too. And the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics tells us that parental awareness is the key to preventing future

23:11 since I dosing could very well indicate a willingness to experiment with drugs. It's a gateway drug John, that's what it is. It's the gateway non-drug. It's a crock of crap is what it is first thing I did as I asked Christina who's here with us now I said have you heard of this eye dose and she says no so they'd like sounds you download and then it makes your heart and believe me my daughter knows everything she knows about particularly in the UK. I mean, they're on the tip of all the you know, the meow-meow and all this all these synthetic legal stuff and it's just not never heard of it And of course is bullcrap wait Here's that here's the guy explaining how its a gateway drug It should be aware of what sites their kids are visiting and not just dismiss This as just something harmless on the computer if you want to reach these kids and save these kids and keep these kids safe parents have To be aware and they've got to take action

24:03 Now another concern OBN has is that many of these eye dosing websites lure visitors to actual drug and drug paraphernalia sites. So Kelly, this is yet another reason why parents really need to be proactive and not only talk to their kids but check what they're downloading. I can't take anymore of that crap! This is all somehow related to the anti-marijuana thing I'm sure. I think you're right and it's Actually, I believe that it's a spoof that someone started this and that these kids are now laughing their asses off It's written all over it especially with the kids playing along

24:39 and the videos they show in this news report... Wait, wait but hold on a second. Where's the kid? You know they're going around with the microphone from here to there where is that kid who says this is bogus I listen to this thing it doesn't do anything No we don't have that in our report John That's not what the Ministry of Truth has approved in their release Are you crazy?! Nah nah nah nah This is uh... That's funny And the videos they show in that piece I looked at those videos and its actually of kids who are taping themselves listening to it and the YouTube tags are like hoax and stuff like that, pretending to freak out. It's a big stupid setup! It's lame yet it'll catch on you watch this is now in Oklahoma? Yeah well with the kids they pull off the hoax

Heroin Detoxification and Suboxone Pharmaceutical Profits

Heroin addiction rates are rising in Southern California, leading to a surge in patients seeking detoxification at psychiatric hospitals. Doctors are increasingly prescribing Suboxone, a sublingual narcotic manufactured by Reckitt Benckiser, which requires specialized licensing to distribute and can lead to years of dependency. The increase in heroin availability is linked to successful poppy harvests in Afghanistan supported by military presence.

heroin· suboxone· reckitt benckiser· afghanistan· opioid dependence

25:28 or the websites that did. They could pat themselves on the back for pulling one off, but you're right it'll probably be a point of discussion all over the place by a buncha morons. You know what's the issue with listening to like mystical music from India? Or something ya know? Yeah or Backmasking this is just another one of uh... like Backmasking remember? It will make you listen to Ozzy Osbourne and you want to go kill yourself So some real news from the drug scene, from one of our producers. I'm not going to name him even though he didn't explicitly say that He says, ''I work at a drug detox psychiatric hospital in Southern California'' The past few months we have noticed huge amount of heroin detoxers coming in to get help Of course this is because the poppies have been so successfully harvested in Afghanistan with support from military out there

26:29 One drug used to help people get off heroin is called Suboxone. It's a narcotic that not all doctors can legally prescribe, the doctor needs to have taken special classes and have a special license just to prescribe this drug. It's a drug that according to the drug manufacturer must be taken for a long time and could take years to get off of that drug itself At our hospitals we have so many heroin detoxes now that our doctors who prescribe suboxone have too many patients, so our other doctors who can't yet prescribe the drug are currently taking the class to get licensed. So here you have it, heroin is actually a gateway drug. Heroin is a gateway drug to this suboxone which you have to be on for years. Suboxone

27:19 S-U-B-XO-N-E. Yeah, I have a National Institute of Health... Sublingual... It's Biprenorphine Sublingual and BiPrenorphine. Yeah it's just some brand of something that I'm just wanting to find out who here is on the health NIH website? Yeah thats what I am looking at too It's a... Office-based treatment for opioid dependence. But this is... Who makes this stuff? That of course they don't say, let me see brand name Suboxone and Subutex. Subutex. There are two companies making it

28:00 Let me see, let me search it. You can get side effects, headaches stomach pain constipation vomiting difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep sweating some side effects uh can be serious here suboxone.com skin rash itching john suboxone dot com is where you want to go And I've got a pop-up here. Cancel, you crazy! Why choose Suboxone? Why?! I don't know why because i'm hooked on heroin and my doctor said... Why else would you choose it? Who makes this stuff of course it's impossible to find out who makes it. It would help if he didn't have a big pop up. Oh here you go Suboxone Wreckit Wow Wreckit Benkiser Pharmaceuticals from Richmond Virginia

28:54 Wreck it where do I know that name wreck it? No, but they're in Virginia It's part of the MK ultra project. That's what it is Richmond is a little bit off the beaten track for the intelligence community Yeah, and how about sub Botex this is fascinating stuff So maybe subutex.com, would that be crazy to think? Oh no! Why choose... No it all goes to the same one okay it goes with the same website interesting so they make the same... That's just probably a variation oh this is funny see how Suboxone made a difference in Jessica's life wait how did it make a difference oh there's video The following video was about the experience of one person and treatment with Suboxone

29:40 The feelings expressed in the situation described are personal and may not reflect the experience of other Suboxone patients. Here to Help is a free support program exclusively for Suboxone patients. Suboxone, improving the world! Here To Help They got the music I think that huge misconception that people get about addiction and dependence is that you can just stop whenever you want to stop Snip Jessica, you have to want it yourself. She's my name is Jessica I'm from Salt Lake City I am married to my husband JT with whom I have a daughter at two-year old daughter she's on the swing and I'm just I'm a mom

30:24 I had a surgery to get my tonsils taken out and that was my first experience with opioids. It was probably three years into using them, I started realizing that it was a daily thing for me. I was hanging out with the wrong people, I was in the wrong situation...it just got out of control Jessica tried to stop misusing opioids on her own. What kind of life was Oxycontin or what? Yeah, what kind of opioids do you get from the...from an operation when you get nowadays is I you know those heavy-duty things that are kinda synthetic like oxycontin yeah well anyway I'm gonna give a morphine anymore Anyway, I just thought it's interesting that the heroin is basically a gateway drug to this legal crap That they put you on for years

CHAPTER 06 / 29 Discussion

Nevada National Guard Agribusiness Team in Afghanistan

The Nevada National Guard's Agribusiness Development Team is deploying to Afghanistan for a one-year mission to assist with agricultural cultivation. While officially tasked with general farming improvements, the timing coincides with theories regarding the optimization of opium poppy harvests. Speculation suggests new cultivation techniques may allow for two poppy crops per year in certain Afghan regions.

nevada national guard· afghanistan· agribusiness· poppies· opium

31:11 For years! Yeah, and I bet you it's not cheap. No...you think? That's alright, Obamacare will take care of all that for ya'. And just along those lines-and this is the second time we've read a news article like this. I think the first time was probably when we began the show but Nevada's National Guard Agricultural Team is now on its way to begin its-I'm sorry, the Agribusiness Development Team is set to deploy this weekend to work in Afghanistan for a year. You know, they've got to get ready for the next crop so... Well I think they're double cropping so they're probably pulling two down a year, I'm sure of it

31:51 Possibly do two crops due to harvest a year on that's possible. Yeah, you can do that I was looking all the details on how to grow opium just in case I had this start a new business And you could start a gateway drug business and apparently You can get two crops a year if your timing is tight The team they have a harsh winter that gets wipes everything out Well, so they're off. They start... I guess they've already started? No, they probably got some new cultivation techniques that you can get more poppies per acre It's so sad but it's so true Amazing! Amazing amazing amazing! I see lots of people twittering Mel Gibson shantix now That's good

32:38 That's a good way to get the word out. Yeah, actually yeah Mel Gibson uh... yeah because Twitter has got a huge reach now when it comes to Hollywood. Yeah you know that is actually an excellent make sure you put no agenda in there. Yeah. Because we imagine if we were interviewed for Extra? Extra! Extra! Two conspiracy theorists on internet radio show have discovered that Mel Gibson might be on Shantex. Extra investigates I'm Nancy Grace And it would be like, you'd get like five words in. They have a mic in your face and say... No no! It would be like less than five words are you kidding me? It just be B-roll of me behind my mic and you behind your mic. And that will be it. If that.

Political Predictions and EPA Climate Regulations

Political operative Dick Morris is predicting Republican gains in the House and Senate while floating a potential 2012 presidential run for Hillary Clinton. Meanwhile, Senator Maria Cantwell and other Democrats have expressed concerns regarding the EPA's upcoming climate regulations under the Clean Air Act. These regulations, set to take effect in January, are expected to increase costs for facilities and consumers, leading to friction within the Democratic party.

33:26 That would be it. All I want is this... That's all i want people to hear and just say no agenda show they'll never get the URL No agendashow.com, they won't get it in. I was watching O'Reilly and he's always getting Dick Morris on who's a just of this crazy operative who was you know Clinton's He was always a democratic guy. I happened to see this episode of his show I don't really watch O'Reilly so there was some interesting things. And he talks about how the Republicans are going to take the House and the Senate according to him but he slips in DickMorris dot com, my website dickmorris dot com, he slips it in so many times you go oh my god how did they let him get away with that? I took something else away from that piece he did on O'Reilly. He said

34:17 that they're gearing up to make Hillary Clinton run for president in 2012. You saw a different one then, because if I had seen that I would have put it on the clips And it kind of blew me away because you and I have been talking about... By the way he's full of crap okay so let's start. Yeah sure well yeah he is full of crap but when you take all the Obama bashing into account then I now have a whole subheading in the show notes at noagendershow.com It's pretty outrageous Everyone is like, oh his approval ratings are the lowest ever. They're the lowest since when Bush left office even Arianna Huffington is now jumping on the bash Obama bandwagon and Well that's interesting you'd bring this up because I have actually a clip nice which I found to be particularly weird Because it is another Democrat who seems to be off the reservation attacking the EPA

35:14 You might want to play a bit of it. This is, I think his first name's Maria Cantwell she's from Washington my wife doesn't think much of her but she's a Democrat and this line of questioning...I was listening to him and then when he crops up Democrat i'm thinking why is she making doing this attack on the administration essentially? The effect on growth distribution but one other things that seems to me that looming out there that going to affect incomes across America is this issue of EPA's action on climate and the regulation of pollutants under the Clean Air Act. And that is going to take effect in January, I mean companies are gonna have to start looking at best available control technology and that's going to be an expense later in July they're going

36:06 have the full scope of covering facilities that are going to have to make upgrades on emissions. And that cost is going to get passed on to the individual consumers, and that's an expense. That's an expense that is going to affect people moving forward. I wondered Dr. Holtz-Eakin, you've talked about proposals like we proposed that would help try I found on and on like this is just blasting a cap-and-trade by the EPA Well, she's a Democrat. So The New York Times who of course are the Publishing house for the Ministry of Truth they come out with a new A new kind of story meme that has been published in over the weekend was in Barron's it's in Everyone's basically jumping on this story you'll recall The president went to

Solyndra IPO Failure and InterSolar Trade Show

Solyndra Inc. canceled its planned IPO after auditors from Price Waterhouse questioned the company's viability, noting that production costs per watt far exceeded market selling prices. This failure is a significant embarrassment for the Obama administration, which provided over $500 million in federal loans to the company. Observations from the InterSolar trade show at the Moscone Center suggest the solar industry is currently populated by opportunistic sales figures reminiscent of the 1980s computer boom.

solyndra· obama· solar energy· moscone center· green economy

37:05 solar manufacturing company in the Bay Area called Solyndra Inc and And he was there, you know He's like he did his whole tour and they did all the videos. This is one of these companies that got half a billion five hundred and fifty eight million dollars In federal loans as a lot of these companies out there But this is the one right? I didn't go through the pain of pulling the clip but it's on whitehouse.gov You can find it So, Solyndra Inc. was supposed to be the shining example of the new green economy and then they're... so they're supposed to go public and they are scheduled for the IPO and everyone's on board with this thing right? Schwarzenegger of course it's in California oh this is great it has huge investors and everything It has a billion dollars invested in it And before the IPO

38:02 Price Waterhouse, I think is their auditors come out with a statement that say these guys have no chance in hell of making any money ever. Their production and because they boil it down to the cost per watt It's just impossible! They cannot make money with this technology. Their own auditor said that And you know how these accountancy firms are, they're corrupt as anything too. Yeah! This thing has to really be off the track before they come out and say anything I mean auditors are supposed to be kind of hedgy and they're supposed to say well you know forward-looking statements there's no guarantee yada yada yada but they literally came out with such a damning statement going right down to here $6.29 a watt

38:51 But we're selling them for $3.42 a watt according to the auditor's report in the SEC filing, and the S-1. So it's like you can't make money! The whole concept is buy low sell high. It's not buy high sell low And so the IPO has been pulled, everyone's you know this is like the laughing stock. Everyone was like oh this green shit it's not gonna work solar will not work you can't do it! You can't do it on scale It's not working at least not with a technology we have available today but there's huge embarrassment for for the entire policy for the entire White House policy. And Obama in particular, because they put the guy there! I was just at the... right now there's a thing called InterSolar which is at Moscone. I went Tuesday and Wednesday

39:43 to this trade show. I've never seen anything quite like it, but it's very memorable in terms of its atmosphere because I've seen that atmosphere before. It happened in the mid-80s there was a second boom of computer shows and excitement and you go to these shows and you just look around, he said who are these people I've never seen them before? And they all looked like used car dealers. That's what they are! All those dealerships had to close they had to go somewhere So they went so i'm over here it's the same thing this is the first time and I've been going to this facility since they built it Moscone West is the latest of the Mosconi

40:22 convention centers, they got North and South. And this is built as West building which is generally speaking has smaller trade shows in it I've never seen this thing where... This is three stories of trade show floors all three stories were filled to the gills I've never seen this, especially on the third floor filled with solar panels and solar collectors and tubes of water going through them. And different kinds of stepper motors that moved your solar panel for you. Then they had these big panels and they'd be like this huge panel that shows it could generate 180 watts

40:58 you know and it would say this gonna cost a fortune in the whole thing just had a stench of this kind of money grab based because largely I think the government and day was that was very exciting show the show is packed in at the same time in must go any north to south there was a semi con west which is the huge semiconductor then they're all part of the same operation they've they set up this new inner solar so they were sold around the semiconductors are the same guys yeah and they're just expanding their reach. Because it's all silicone stuff? Yeah, so the semiconductor show was like dull! I mean there was you know it was like... You were bored when he went to the show. Normally its so exciting to go to a semiconductor show. That is a good point. It has been kind of dull but the other show was exciting everybody was buzzing around and they were going around So some one little company got this guy's card

41:53 I'm walking around, it's all solar solar solar and there is one wind generator in there. One little wind dude? It's a small port, like you can put on your roof if you have enough wind to power it and delivers a kilowatt. What?! A kilowatt! Yeah, delivers a kilowatt, well that's only 1000 watts. Well thats a lamp It's more than a lamp, it's a few lamps. Yeah it's not my fridge! It delivers a kilowatt and costs two grand...it's like the cost benefits in terms of the amount of energy you get for the amount money is spent on it about 10x what you have to spend on solar panels but anyway I think I'm gonna get one these little things they're only you know little thing spinning around What would you run on?

42:37 No, I would just put it into the grid and then if we lost our power right then I would you know It would be powering the place do well not much of the place You have to turn everything off a couple kilowatts that do the trick hmm interesting keep your refrigerator going John C. Dvorak disposable cash It's whipping it out man living. No, I just was a effort to save money in the long haul is my effort to go green Yeah Green is the color of money by the way for those you who missed out on that the whole joke of it all So anyway yeah, I did anyway. I was really stunned by this show hmm um I just got a news alert from CNBC and

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Federal Reserve Power

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform bill is moving toward a final vote, a move critics argue will significantly empower the private Federal Reserve. The legislation is being framed as consumer protection regarding credit card fees, but it primarily grants the Fed oversight of private banks. The timing of the bill's passage is noted for occurring while the public is distracted by celebrity news involving Mel Gibson.

dodd-frank· barney frank· federal reserve· wall street· banking reform

43:21 Looks like they're going to they've stopped. They've agreed to stop debate on the what I'm calling the Federal Reserve empowerment bill known as the The Dodd What's Twinkle Toes name again? The Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform bill, which is such a throwback by the way to the Great Depression. Twinkle toes! Yeah Barney Frank twinkle toes that's what they call them on Wall Street I understand they call him twinkle toes it's of course it's a total throwback to The Great Depression arguably was caused by the banks then as well and then everyone, oh let's blame the banks. Banks bad Wall Street bad and of course they gave them unbelievable power and created a Federal Reserve and you know it gave the Federal Reserve more powers so that same thing is happening now and it makes so much sense all these stories now coming out about to the Federal Reserve shifting four trillion dollars if top toxic debt too will know one really knows

44:17 uh... one point something trillion dollars that is just missing the budget deficit being miscalculated because it was based on phantom numbers and now they're going to vote as early as tomorrow And at perfect timing, right? Everyone's talking about Mel. Everyone is preoccupied with Mel Gibson no one gives a crap and they're being sold this big lie about oh your credit card fees will go down yeah but we're giving the private Federal Reserve which consists of private banks we don't even know which banks they are that's how private they are that information is not disclosed and they're now going to run the banks

Belgian Freedelity National ID Loyalty Program

Belgium has introduced "Freedelity," a system that links the national electronic identity card (eID) to commercial loyalty programs. This integration allows the government and corporations to track consumer purchasing habits, including food and health-related choices, under the guise of convenience. While the website appears highly professional and multilingual, the hosts initially question if the invasive nature of the program is an elaborate spoof.

belgium· eid· freedelity· biometric· loyalty card

44:58 They're going to oversee the banks. So that's being rammed through just perfect Everything all fits together and then then the cap-and-trade bill is next I guess and that's what this whole BP thing is about Well, they can't they're not gonna get that one done in time because they're gonna do closing shop up here in a couple weeks United States of Europe has come out with something genius John just I mean just when I saw this story I pooped myself. Was it the dish rag guy that came up with it? No, you mean Haiku Herman? Yeah no The President of the United States of Europe?

45:45 Which, by the way the ID card I have a picture of it here includes. It has a chip on it's got your biometric data its got your picture its got everything So this is the mark of The Beast How do you think what is the easiest way to get the slaves to carry this thing with them all the time and not just that but actually participate in the tracking process? What is the easiest way? Turn into a Twitter account Close They've made it. Here it is, it's called Freedelity and they've got your carte identité meet your new loyalty card and its already in your wallet! They have connected the national identity card to loyalty programs across the country for shopping groceries everywhere you go and this is now here

Designed to benefit both professionals and consumers it combines simplicity security flexibility and a huge set of rich features at a very low price see for yourself! And so now not only will you want to use it because of course all the slaves are like hey that's handy don't why have a whole bunch of loyalty cards in your pocket? You only need one But now they'll actually be tracking what you buy. It doesn't get any smarter than that! No, it's a fantastic idea the thing is is that right now I mean we've talked about this on the show before these cards are or hindrance to individual rights and then you will be if you're using a Safeway card

47:37 Everything you buy is being recorded and they can tell, you know. They can do a calculation there's all these profiles they can do they can say well this is the guy who was head of household family XYZ and his wife's buying this stuff he's buying this stuff It looks like they're ingesting too much salt.

Haiti Earthquake Recovery and UN Political Interference

Six months after the Haiti earthquake, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and other officials report that promised international aid has largely failed to reach the country. The Clinton Foundation and various NGOs are accused of maintaining control over the region while the U.S. government pressures President Préval regarding upcoming elections. Concerns are raised that the lack of progress may allow Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez to increase his influence in the Caribbean.

51:25 Fidelity IDSA. Well, of course it's gonna be a commercial company that's running the show that makes sense I don't know well All right, well we'll have to I mean just for a second there just hit me I'm like wait a minute This is so good Is this a spoof but they went through a lot of trouble? I think is kind of pathetic that a spoof is bad It's not good Yeah, I Don't know what to say now. It's freaking me out okay, so I had something a disturbing trend. I picked up the couple things happened right after the World Cup One thing happened directly after wasn't reported in the news that what really happened on the news is the sixth anniversary of Haiti occurred and since everyone was kind of like done with

52:16 with World Cup news and they were looking around and no one's done any real work, press releases have been sent out. I was like what are we going to report on? But then there is all these meetings that take place and the gist of it... And i have a bunch of links for everyone to look at in the show notes at NoAgendaShow.com The gist of it is people are still screwed They've gotten almost no money We even had Secretary General of the United Nations Ban Ki-moon essentially saying Clinton hadn't sent the check yet So there's just tons and tons of NGOs, non-governmental organizations who are just gearing up to go in and take over the entire country. Actually I should do this in order... One little thing I noticed which I can predict for you right now they are supposed to have presidential elections in November

53:12 and the United States has already said, hey Praval you know... You really should let us help out with your election process. I think that you need to make sure it happens transparently Does this sound familiar John? It has to be transparently. So I'd say Praval is out And if it doesn't happen by election, the guy will get suicided. He'll get two to the head so they're about to shove in a new guy this guy has served his purpose that need you some hope and change and The money is that people of Haiti have received no money all those celebrity benefits around the world Have resulted in no more than 500 million dollars actually going to Haiti and the Clinton Foundation Is still sending like tents and flashlights

54:00 So Clinton is like, yeah I'm gonna go kick their ass. I'm gonna get all these countries who promised all this money and of course Venezuela is actually paying money This is why I think everyone's waking up Oh crap you know, a lo presidente Chavez is going to move in we got to stop that this is our takeover damn it Get out here Chavez! This is the United States We're taking over this place And were gonna put in our own president So HaitianTruth.org is a great website that really reports for as long as it lasts, I'm sure they'll take this off the air but here Haiti's president rejects US Senate advice on how to prepare for fall presidential election Hillary Clinton in there saying oh you know we gotta help out so its total take over not that anyone cares but hope y'all feel good with your text donation

Listener Donations and World Cup Betting Success

The hosts discuss the financial realities of producing the show compared to the massive contracts of athletes like LeBron James. Several listeners, including Sir Andrew Green and Carl Baran, sent donations to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, or to support the show's unique news analysis. One listener reported winning a World Cup bet by following the show's tip that Spain was a "lock" to win the tournament.

Mothership Boarding Pass and QR Code Art

A new $33.33 monthly donation tier is proposed that would grant supporters a "Mothership Boarding Pass" designed by show artists Randy Asher or Sir Paul T. These limited-edition, signed cards would feature QR codes linking back to the show's website. The concept is presented as a form of performance art and a way to recognize the high-quality graphic design contributed by the listener community.

mothership· qr code· nasa· randy asher· paul t

1:01:20 So anyone who wants to help us out or wants a birthday call, go to Dvorak.org slash NA noagendashow dot com slash na or actually there's a button on the no agendashow dot com main site also channeldvorak.com slash n-a where you'll if you have problems getting on the other sites because of firewalls or whatever but we really appreciate your help to an extreme also want to thank everyone who's gotten that lucky thirty dollar a month as subscription and uh... everyone is subscribes route to the five-dollar month of yes searching donate slash donation on the app appreciated to it into ally we need to get about thousand people on one of these programs in will be in was set

1:02:04 Yeah, and a couple notes on that. If you are a monthly subscriber or it's called the subscription in PayPal but if you're a monthly supporter of the show please check your subscription because they do like just drop for some reason and then PayPal doesn't give you any notice And we've been seeing this a lot and people just don't know it. Sometimes it's because you might have changed some information, sometimes they just seem to drop it so we'd really appreciate your checking on that. It is indeed the base that were growing and that is the trend line on The charge that Eric put together is it is growing for the monthly donation. We just need more of them I mean and my god, you know five dollars a month or thirty bucks a month You can give up something. Yeah, we do just think about what you throw in a parking meter And I mean in today's world, I mean five people are throwing away five bucks left and right yes, and and again, you know if she wanted special call out for like

1:03:00 Like, you know say you broke up with your girlfriend. You were gonna take her out to dinner? We could use the money or if you have money left over in your PayPal account we still do get a couple of people that find that to be the case and then they just give it us because its sitting there collecting interest for PayPal. You're not getting anything out of this. So the guy who registered Vajazzling.com while listening to our show he sold the domain And I don't know if he sent us any money or if he is, you know. He has sent us money in the past from some of the profits because I guess he parked some... You know kind like a... Vajazzling.com was just worth money and put some ads on that So we sold the domain and the new owner of the domain who also owns Vajazzleville

1:03:46 He says, hey you know I just bought the domain and i want you to know that I will also be using it to promote no agenda which is great we appreciate that being handed down. And uh...I'm just starting make some money with Vajazzling if it ever turns profitable I promise a percentage of the proceeds for this show in addition to my existing five dollar month personal contributions highly appreciated thank you. A note too and this is a personal thanks To everyone out there who was propagating the show through BitTorrent, we have a number of people seeding the torrents now. Keep it up that's really important it's another way for us to distribute the show that really works and I was thinking maybe we should do you know...I've been looking into

1:04:31 some, don't laugh at me. But I'm looking into moon bases and a couple of other things and there's you know there's a lot of activity and you can see some mainstream media picking up on this and of course we now have the NASA game which apparently sucks according to a guy who actually knows how some of this stuff should work And i was thinking John maybe we put a special $33.33 donation link up and anyone who donate Or who subscribes and supports the show through that monthly link will automatically get a mothership boarding card For what? A mothership boarding card for when the mothership comes then everyone who has the boarding card gets on it's kind of like The Ark Yeah, that's a great idea. I think people would want to mothership boarding pass well do what you're just actually describing is a form of performance art

1:05:30 So you'd want a boarding pass. If you wanna do this idea, it goes like this... We do a contest for one of our artists and we've got a lot of them to design the boarding card people take out the subscription and then we make a limited edition... we make 100-500 whatever probably 100 or 200 maybe And that's a big ship! It could be 1000 Okay, well whatever the case is we have them signed and numbered by the artist And they will get each get their own customized boys I can use to get on the mothership that you'll be coordinating because I won't be taking part in any of this crap. I'll be steering it What are you talking about? I'm but the other thing is they would be something that would be frameable and so they have a little work of art great Well, and I and I then we should again thank our

1:06:19 artists and we do have a number of them. And, of course there's the NOAA-GenderedArtGenerator.info which we've actually pulled some art from in the past and we've got our honorary knights Randy Asher and Sir Paul T who create art that is often under discussed undermention part of this show The artwork is just phenomenal it's just outstanding every single week we've got something to so beautiful and now add to that a mothership boarding pass that would be awesome So, again we want to thank the guys who are running these art sites specifically Paul T and Randy Asher like we said. But this generating site by the way if people out there wanna be artists or you think they've got the chops to be a graphics designer go over there fool around because you know we have like Adam just said we have pulled a couple of pieces off in their because our main guys fell asleep which is typical an artist in the afternoon

1:07:16 We we pull some of this crazy stuff off and you might get on so that's a Dennis a credit by the way It's an art credit is oh yeah, it is awesome And you can think about I mean a numbered boarding pass what I and should have a barcode Yeah, of course. It should be official man it should be official so before we started talking about our supporters We really love and appreciate So much oh by the way stop The barcode should be one of those newfangled bar codes that if you hit it with your iPhone yeah takes your right to know agenda show down Yeah the QR code or what is called? Yeah? So right after the World Cup there was a terrorist attack I tell you in Uganda

CHAPTER 14 / 29 Discussion

Uganda Terrorist Attacks and CIA Media Presence

A terrorist bombing in Kampala, Uganda, killed 74 people during a World Cup viewing event, occurring just one week after a visit by Bill Clinton. CNN's Rick Sanchez interviewed a former CIA officer to discuss the attack, which has been attributed to Al-Shabaab. The hosts criticize the media's immediate framing of the event and the frequent use of CIA operatives as "independent" news analysts.

uganda· al-shabaab· bill clinton· rick sanchez· cnn

1:08:00 Now here's what, there are a couple of things weird with this. First of all Uganda who was just in Uganda one week ago before this happened? Clinton he had a whole mission and they went to Malawi I guess you checked up on the kiddie supermarket for Madonna and then he went to Uganda now we know and i know firsthand that uh... uganda is a hotbed of CIA activity hot bed for fifty years we've been in uganda and Clinton leaves, and one week later timing is impeccable. Boom! And immediately it's Al Qaeda. Immediately! It's Al Qaeda. You know? It's this group who of course is al-Qaeda didn't you know that you stupid slave shut up its al-qaeda and then Rick Sanchez I gotta give him the jingle of CNN did you hear him did you hear what he said

1:08:59 No, I'm sure you have the clip. Yes because of course he got the memo from the Ministry of Truth and then it was like okay Clinton went there...I'm just gonna call the guy out wherever this guy goes there's a body count He goes to Haiti You know that money stops yeah or no here? He went to Haiti first We get an earthquake Then he's they're all help get the money And then there's no money so now he goes to Uganda is a huge terrorist attack 70 people are blown up And right as he leaves. And then it's like Al-Qaeda, so what is next? Of course you gotta move in there and protect the poor Africans. Now Rick Sanchez... This douchebag! Listen to what he says It's Rickslist everybody! I'm Rick Sanchez! Ha ha ha haaa! I just read the memo. I wanna tell you a story now Welcome back, I'm Rick Sanchez this is Rickslist This is a story about a guy named Nate Henn This is important stay with me here By all accounts American Nate Henn was a hell of a guy

1:09:54 This is a selfless individual who devoted his young life to helping others. Today, he's dead Nate Henn is dead. Dead, I tell you. Killed by murderous terrorists in the faraway land of Uganda where Henn was working with children Thousands of people had gathered in Uganda's capital to watch the final game of the World Cup They're watching a soccer game The game was in its 19th minute when the bombs began to explode One at a restaurant then two at a rugby field where they were watching on an outdoor screen Our latest tally of the number who died, 74. 74 innocent people are dead. Now wait for it! Joining me now is Gary Pernchton He's a former CIA officer So I...is it? Of course who's the specialist? A CIA guy! They're bringing these CIA guys on over and over again I don't know who at the agency

1:10:50 is like allowing this to go on. They're pushing it! They have a whole PR arm, hey we got your guy right here Rick now listen to what Sanchez says. I don't know if the public is going put up with this much longer. Does everybody in the house have to be CIA guy? We're thinking of Mel Gibson who gives a crap about black people in Uganda She's an African, we don't care. Listen to what Sanchez says! This is- this made me mad But you know what's interesting about this? In a strange way the event is helpful to the cause of those of us who know how sadistic these fundamental radical Islamic terrorists are And if it helps get the message out there that these are not the good guys then so be it

CHAPTER 15 / 29 Discussion

Guantanamo Bay Rehabilitation and Rewards for Justice

Reports indicate that Guantanamo Bay detainees are being provided with Playstations, Wii consoles, and life-skills training as part of a rehabilitation program. Simultaneously, the "Rewards for Justice" program is distributing matchbooks in New York City and abroad featuring the faces of wanted terrorists. These matchbooks offer rewards of up to $25 million for information leading to the resolution of international terrorism acts.

gitmo· al-qaeda· rewards for justice· matchbooks· terrorism

1:11:39 I mean, come on! Who says they're the good guys? But Rick Sanchez is out there. He's saying this is good man This is good That's bad The guy is a total dick but he's being told to say this MKUltra So here... so the latest thing going around right wing talkers and I don't have any clips of this and I wanted to get them Is that fact apparently because Obama administration being so politically correct and a guest or senator or two have visited Gitmo. They now say that the Gitmo scene is going to be completely changed, they're now in group settings, they've got Wii's and Playstations and they get to watch 12 channels of television. And they have a bunch of people coming in there training them on life skills

1:12:32 So they can show him how to balance a checkbook and all this other stuff. Rehabilitation, so when they get let loose which apparently they're going to cut these people loose They'll be able to go right into society and balance their cheque book And have the right attitudes about you know how to learn how to vote why democracy is important all the rest of it and the one thing they've got a program supposedly in the that this is all could all be bogus but it's interesting to talk about it apparently some of these uh... you know self-esteem coaches have moved into get mo and they're teaching people about racism and they're trying to convince him that al qaeda is a racist organization area as the example of the killer kill black people their races alright

1:13:19 How about when they kill white people? Are you not racist then?" The whole thing is just unbelievable to me that this is going on and it's like, I don't know. And then all these CIA spokespeople... This guy... It's baffling to me! Why is it baffling?! It's the Ministry of Truth! This is not news! This is 1984! This is the flat screen in your house that is giving you the truth! Come on, it's not baffling! Please! It's baffling. Dame Tanya, who is in New York City says she picked up a couple of these new matchbooks which I think is interesting that they're giving away free matchbooks now you can't smoke anywhere at her local bar in New York City and these matchbooks now have terrorists on them it's part of the government program called Rewards for Justice

1:14:13 which you can find at rewardsforjustice.net whose mission is quote, offering rewards of up to 25 million dollars for information that prevents or favorably resolves acts of international terrorism against US persons or property worldwide so as we used to have like have you seen this kid? Like on the milk cartons now we have you know can you catch this terrorist on matchbooks and it's a real program Rewards For Justice. It's a waste money. Of course it's a waste of money but they But they're popping up everywhere and they're also in Arabic. So it's not just English, but it's Arabic fascinating Just fascinating to me. Hmm. So there's another interesting Nothing-to-see here moment. Mmm Oh really? Yes shit I'm sorry. I I misfired let me do it anyway nothing

CHAPTER 16 / 29 Discussion

BP Oil and the Lockerbie Bomber Release

Four U.S. Senators, including Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, are calling for an investigation into whether BP pressured the British government to release Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset al-Megrahi. The theory suggests Megrahi was released to facilitate a $900 million oil drilling deal between BP and Libya. Critics argue this story is being recirculated now to further vilify BP during the ongoing Gulf oil crisis.

bp· lockerbie· megrahi· libya· chuck schumer

1:15:04 I've got the clip if we want to play it but we don't even need too, but its like all of a sudden Lockerbie is responsible for BP is somehow responsible for the Lockerbie disaster. It's not like we weren't talking about this year ago when this Lockerbie framed terrorist was under consideration being let go We all know that that was set up to get BP drilling rights in Libya Which is a known fact and now all of the sudden it's coming out because... Yeah, what's come in it's weird because there's definitely nothing to see here moment but here's an interesting report that ran this morning. That describes the situation and I just want to play it because tell me exactly after you listen to this short clip what's missing? In terms of reporting from this news report that ran on CBS network

1:16:03 Good morning, Harry. Well this goes right back to the bombing of the Pan Am flight over Lockerbie Scotland and a man called Abdel Basit Megrahi Now four Democratic senators in the United States have alleged that BP profited from the release of a terrorist That terrorist is Al Megrahi and he was released from jail last year on health grounds He was said to have terminal cancer but it's worth saying that he is still back in Libya and still alive and well. Now, back in 2007 the British government was negotiating a prisoner transfer with the Libyan goverment that included Megrahi. And BP at the time was very keen to get some oil deals in Libya and it was encouraging the British government to conclude this prisoner transfer agreement if you follow me

1:16:57 A little later that year, BP did sign a $900 million agreement to drill oil wells off Libya. And now of course there's some question that Al-Megrahi was part of that deal and somehow there is a quid pro quo prisoners for oil The Senators are charging that in this case, in that deal justice took a backseat to commercial interests. Now yesterday Secretary of State Clinton said she had received a letter detailing this rather complicated story and that she would look into it It's worth also saying that BP said...it made its statement back in 07' that it did encourage the British government

1:17:39 successful prisoner transfer and that's all it's going to say. It has not issued any new statement or information. Elizabeth Palmer in London this morning, thank you. Eric? So here is what I'm seeing first of all what's missing from the report did you notice a big missing piece of information help me out senators Senators bitching and moaning to Clinton. Oh yeah, well I mean the... Four senators! Yeah, who? Well I can pick up, I'm pulling up a story right now. You can look them up and where is this in the report?!

1:18:18 Right. Well, wait a minute you think it's a coincidence that one of the senators the one doing most of the moaning and groaning was The one that replaced Clinton in New York at the behest of the governor she was placed in there She's actually Clinton's protege. I have something to do with this story being phony is that Kirsten Gillibrand? Yeah And the fact that the four senators are just from Jersey and New York they're not from any place else I mean this is a story that's been planted to get people off of what we assume or we've talked about, the real Lockerbie story which was going to come out. We believe and they had to rouse this guy get him out of the country but now it's becoming apparent that its starting to bubble up again so what do you do? Well who can we blame for this whole thing let's blame BP because they're already in a heap of trouble

1:19:07 How bad can it be? Let's just blame them for everything and then when all this boils up, blows over, you know blow over. Yeah, it's amazing. It's excellent isn't it? Yeah, it says Schumer Chuck Schumer Schumer and this woman who is the? Chris Gillibrand boneheads from Jersey Menendez and Lautenberg yeah Do you think they got a call hey he's what you need to do yeah of course is missing from you well She can get on board with this they couldn't get anybody Yeah that's uh yeah And but I also happen to think it's true

1:19:43 I think it's totally true. It was a very convenient moment to do it that just bond is a bundling exercise I think they did BP just leverage the situation, and I don't think you I don't need these guys actually released that guy on behalf of BP No, I don't know man the oil Because there was getting very close to having this thing go out at appeal and found who really did this everybody knew This guy didn't do it right well We knew that we don't know who's done it But we know that he didn't well you know if you go back to the original reports that we came out during that period of time when they were with him investigative reporters are actually looking into it they had the did do it was syria right at the whole thing figured out but then they put the clamps on and i was the end of it we have been named

CHAPTER 17 / 29 Discussion

Deepwater Horizon Relief Wells and Casing Integrity

Driller Doug, a correspondent working on the relief well ships, reports that industry experts fear the new containment cap may cause a leak thousands of feet below the seafloor. If the well's casing integrity fails, the result could be an unstoppable "volcano" of oil. While BP is testing the pressure of the well, drilling on the primary relief well has been temporarily halted to monitor the capping stack's performance.

bp· deepwater horizon· relief wells· gulf of mexico· oil spill

1:20:25 Pushed this guy in the prison. Yeah, I remember and then part of that the guy was in charge of that investigation Was also messed up in these pedophile rings? I'll stay off of that today for this show But yeah There's a lot there's a lot of high-powered people doing anyway The point is is this seems like it's a phony story that has been planted So just on the oil cabal for a moment, we have Driller Doug emails us from time to time. Driller Doug is on I think the DD2 he's in one of the... sorry the DD3s and one of the drill ships who were drilling the relief wells who by the way have halted their drilling and he's actually kind of against my theories but then he sends me this note in the morning

1:21:06 Sorry about not giving you any info for the past two weeks. Been busy as hell trying to get this air can lifted up into our moon pool, whatever that means Here's a couple pictures but lot of activity going on at the site We The West Sirius that's one of the drill ships, are ready to set our second air can and riser section that will be used to pump the oil from the well to super tankers if all else fails. We are however in standby condition until they finish what they're doing with the cap we call it a mini blowout preventor here many of the drillers heres them salient point many other drillers out here feel the cap will not hold and the well will spring a leak many thousands of feet below the sea floor

1:21:47 But we are really praying the pressure holds. So that does not bode very well, I'm like what thousands feet below the sea floor? Then this is just a joke and this whole cap thing it's just a sick joke Well, I have a couple of clips that talk about this issue. Okay? First of all on the these aren't under Clips 2 by the way there's a Chris Matthews stuff first of all Matthews has a This is this guy's on a lot of talk shows but he shows up on Matthews quite a bit He's an ex-CEO of shell and he discusses this possibility uh... in fact she discusses it with the anyone i want to see this ran last night and the following following report that number has got a clip of ran this morning because apparently whatever you're gonna hear first which is the chris matthews one dot clip none of the came to do fruition ed and what really actually kind of hat is

1:22:46 tending to happen is what the driller Doug just said but play this I think the fundamental issue, to cut through the coded language Chris is there are serious concerns about the integrity of the casing that is the well itself and that by putting the cap on and doing the stress tests that were being talked about that the integrity of the steel is insufficient to hold the pressure up the well. And if you lose the casing it's game over It's like having a volcano on the bottom of the sea. Where have we heard that word used before? Thank you very much! If you lose the casing and oil starts coming up on the outside of the casing, You can't stop it There is nothing you could do to then stop it other than implode the well So I think its pretty prudent

1:23:37 under the conditions that are there. And many in the industry feel that the casing must have been damaged because of the power of that well, the pressure of that reservoir and so let's kind of not go to the stress tests until we're ready to go with the relief wells because the relief well building up a column of heavy mud could be the best case to shut down the flow Now as I understand it John, correct me where i'm wrong here. The goal was to gradually close this cap so that you're like tightening the funnel so we get stronger and stronger pressure in the middle and decide at some point whether a strong pressure coming there is an indication that the well is sound That there is integrity in the well. I thought that was the plan What's the risk of gradually letting that pressure come into a narrower and more narrow funnel?

1:24:28 Yeah, well I stopped it there. It goes on and on but you can see that this is essentially what the... This guy's reflecting that rumor that Driller Doug is talking about. So I'm still understanding that the idea is you cap it off there then you have the end according to Driller Doug The relief wells are just a couple hundred feet away from where they need to be, and then it starts gushing up through these two pipes. And then they start capturing it... By the way no one else has a permit to drill so BP is basically sitting on what Clinton calls the Gusher of all Gushers and oil just can't wait to hop into your car!

CHAPTER 18 / 29 Discussion

Gulf Oil Cap Testing and Methane Pressure

Admiral Thad Allen and BP engineers are conducting 48-hour pressure tests on the Deepwater Horizon well using a new three-valve containment cap. High-pressure readings would indicate the well is structurally sound, while low-pressure readings would suggest a leak elsewhere in the system. The process involves six-hour intervals of data collection to determine if the well can be completely shut in or if oil must continue to be siphoned to surface ships.

bp· thad allen· gulf of mexico· pressure test· methane

1:25:07 And then these guys are just the king and master. Yeah, that's what I was thinking too until I heard this morning's report which included some commentary from the guy who actually is running the whole show and you might want to play that and then try to figure out what the hell is going on. Overnight BP solution became part of its new problem a leak developed in one of the lines in his new containment cap but now engineers have sealed that leak and this test is about to get back underway In a series of stages, BP has begun testing the strength of its runaway well. But even more methodically and carefully than his plan called for only a couple days ago. We will start to increase the pressure in the capping stack

1:25:49 and we will do this in six hour intervals. And at each six hour interval, we will stop and we will consider a pressure data." BP's new containment cap has three valves the first two shut off like a light switch while the third works more like a dimmer and takes longer to close off The leak that was found last night and what they were able to fix this morning was in the line attached to the dimmer switch Eventually, when all three are closed all the oil will be trapped which increases pressure inside the well. High-pressure readings indicate the well is strong low pressure readings mean the well has hidden leaks BP would then try to ease the pressure by releasing more oil and siphoning it to surface ships The test itself was delayed 24 hours while engineers and scientists reviewed the plan This is not easy there are significant perceptions that have been created around the country

1:26:38 I have my own perceptions of how we'd like to move forward on this. For this test, BP has stopped collecting any oil from the well and as a precaution suspended drilling on its lead relief well all in the hope that this test could mean after almost three months the beginning of the end With the leak in line now fixed, BP engineers can concentrate on the bigger picture testing the strength at this well they'll build up pressure inside the well high-pressure readings are good low-pressure readings are bad results could take as long as forty eight hours but if the well strength is not good they could know within six hours of a test beginning big day here in the gulf box class and fuckers gonna blow this it's going to blow let's go below it well and it's funny because there's his report from salem news dot com which is

1:27:30 serves Oregon and the Pacific Northwest with local, national and worldwide news. And it's written by Terrence Aime I guess a staff reporter and it's funny that shows up in this particular... Wasn't Terrence Aime the same guy we were talking about last show? Oh is that the same guy from the helium thing yeah screw it then I'm not gonna read it he says that BP is readying as super weapon Well, see. To blow the thing... to blow it all up? That's Terrence and he gets around doesn't he? Yeah I'm surprised you didn't notice the name. Okay so um... It's in the show notes if you want to read it but yeah it doesn't sound good. The Salem News is flaky anyway But I'm gonna take Driller Doug's word for it He says

1:28:18 So just to finish up this quick little email here. I prefer taking the word of a guy that's on the spot Right, he says we don't think the cap is going to hold and that a leak will spring many thousands of feet below the sea floor That indeed could be like a volcanic type thing And he says, uh... DD3 and DD2 drill ships have been halted drilling the relief well for now as well. Due to the cap testing we just had that confirmed. The DD-3 is within a few hundred feet of intersecting the well God willing the well will be killed by July 27th so it's giving us a date here Also, he says interesting if we cannot get a permit to drill in the next couple of months. We're all going to Trinidad Yeah, I said no time that the rum and Trinidad is outstanding Send us some it's good stuff down there But meanwhile It kind of I mean it's very conspiratorial and we really know crap all about it but the corrects it

1:29:17 spraying continues or not even spraying they're pumping it into the well to keep a lot of this oil down I guess it's kind of like an antacid for an oil well and so they just pump that into the water but, of course this water condenses. It goes up into the atmosphere and comes down as rain And its combination of oil and the chemicals the petroleum chemicals that are in there and this corrects stuff And now in, where is this? I think it was in Mississippi.

1:29:52 Let's listen to the story. Tonight's big story and mystery is unfolding across Mid-South farms, something is killing crops trees even weeds and nobody seems to be able to explain why thank you for joining us I'm Richard Ransom. I'm Claudia Barr farmers are scratching their heads in some are worried their crops may be lost to the mysterious plague it's happening along a large swath of land near the Shelby and Tipton County border along Herring Hill Road and elsewhere near the Mississippi River bottoms Sean Shyvart is just back with more. Richard, Claudia take a close look this is what has farmers worried these tiny dots look as though something burned straight through the leaf and they're finding this everywhere have you seen this video of this John? No not at all it's very concerning and just have a listen say it's everywhere now

Mysterious Crop Damage and Corexit Rain

Farmers along the Mississippi River border in Tennessee and Mississippi are reporting mysterious white spots and holes in their crops and trees. The damage has affected organic and conventional farms alike, leading to speculation that evaporated oil and Corexit dispersants are returning to earth as toxic rain. Local reports also mention dead birds and concerns for livestock grazing on affected grass.

1:29:52 Let's listen to the story. Tonight's big story and mystery is unfolding across Mid-South farms, something is killing crops trees even weeds and nobody seems to be able to explain why thank you for joining us I'm Richard Ransom.

Richard, Claudia take a close look this is what has farmers worried these tiny dots look as though something burned straight through the leaf and they're finding this everywhere have you seen this video of this John? No not at all it's very concerning and just have a listen say it's everywhere now

1:30:43 The tiny dots appear different depending on the plant. On corn stalks, the dot seems to turn white in the center. On other plants a white dust speckles leaves then destroys the green life underneath We found it all in the herbs and flowers, in the palm tree, in the weeds It's apparently on everything. Tony Holt grows organic produce that she sells at area farmers markets as these farmers inspect the new growth covered in the perplexing plague they fear their entire crop may be lost just down the road less than 10 miles of Wilder farms, the damage could possibly hit hundreds of acres of corn it said

1:31:22 And it's so wide, it's so large out here. Everybody is seeing it." It appears to have hit everything. Crops, weeds trees and there's nothing in common The Holtz raise organic crops So they don't spray pesticides on any of their fruits and vegetables The first thought was a parasite or insect But Wilder Farms sprays pesticides and the damage is just the same. Farmers here first noticed the damaging dots over the weekend, then Holt came home to find this... Baby Martins dead. There's two dead birds hanging out of two different gore houses and so we're concerned about that We don't know that it's related but its alarming You know we have horses were concerned about the horses on the grass. We've got chickens. We sell our eggs at the market

1:32:09 Now the farmers that we spoke with are convinced that something in the air caused this damage. They're asking the USDA as well, uh... As well as other experts to look into this problem and we are too. Reporting live downtown Chauncey about WRIG East. Not good! No it doesn't sound like a very good report. No its not a happy report thats for sure So I think this Corexic stuff is getting in the air Yeah no its definitely something there's just too much of a coincidence Yeah, it's bad. It's just bad. It's really really bad I don't feel good about this at all no but hey Mel Gibson's on Chantix yeah, yeah, so we did one piece of good work There's also some light news okay? Well, I could save this to the end But you know how he talked about how

All-Star Game Results as a Political Indicator

MSNBC's Chris Matthews highlighted a historical correlation between the MLB All-Star Game and U.S. midterm elections. Since 1950, every National League victory has been followed by Republican gains in the House of Representatives. Following the National League's 3-1 win in Anaheim, the index suggests significant losses for Democrats in the upcoming 2010 elections.

1:33:00 Overman you know they have a bunch of commerce five minutes of commercials and then overman comes on for a minute to do the show tease And just teases a bunch of stuff, and then leaves You know after 160 seconds in there go another five minutes at commercial Which is the reason by the way people should be donating as listener support? I think is the future of this sort of news show don't forget your mothership boarding pass Matthews, instead of doing teasers he does these crazy little same thing one minute you know ten minutes a commercial is one minute and 10 minutes commercials but he does the kind of weird little tidbits and this one here I thought was pretty funny just for people out there who are politically inclined. Oops sorry my mistake here we go hey why's that? Here we go

1:33:50 Wow, last night in Anaheim the National League beat the American league in baseball's all-star game. The score was 3 to 1 and if you think that has nothing to do with politics think again check this out since 1950 every time the national leagues won the All Star Game The Republicans have had double digit gains in the House of Representatives in that year's midterms. And since 1948, every National League win has preceded Republican gains of at least five seats to the Senate. So based upon that, the Democrats are out to lose double digit seats to the House and five Senate seats this year. Harbaugh will be right back What? What was that?! I love these coincident indexes. Oh my god! It's as good as anything. Yeah it is, and it fills up the space between the commercials that's all he's trying to do yes that's what media is all about unless you follow our method

Toyota Unintended Acceleration and NHTSA Findings

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has released preliminary findings suggesting that many cases of unintended acceleration in Toyota vehicles were caused by "user error" rather than mechanical failure. This shift in narrative follows months of intense scrutiny and congressional hearings regarding Toyota's safety standards. The hosts speculate that a geopolitical deal may have been struck between the U.S. and Japan to end the scandal.

toyota· nhtsa· unintended acceleration· prius· japan

1:34:42 Right, generally speaking it's just a bunch of bullcrap with commercials. Hey ministry of truth is out in full force now I mean did we have to get back... Did Japan do something? We asked them to do or did they get the message or something you know after first we had the government and hearings and everything it was a big scandal and these stuck accelerators on Toyotas and Priuses and Lexuses Now all of a sudden the nothing the National Highway Transportation Security Administration says oh no, no. No, this is just user error good to go How does this work all of a sudden it's okay? No, no This is just you bad drivers stupid slaves You know what you're talking about It was your fault The science is in on this

1:35:33 I mean, clearly we had to make up for this. Something went on in the background that we're not aware of. I've been looking trying to figure it out myself and there's just either somebody has accepted a bunch of our T-bills or there something like that yeah but maybe if somebody out there can dig into the recent Japanese events that relate to the United States and see if there's anything that obviously now we're friends with them in other words, we're not going to start messing with Toyota or maybe it's just Toyota pretending to be part of the Tesla deal. I mean, I don't think they could be that sinister but you never know. I don't... Could be. Nah, is too like is too Bush league yeah? It has to be something bigger than that

IPCC Fifth Assessment Report and Media Restrictions

IPCC Chairman Rajendra Pachauri has issued a memo to scientists working on the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) advising them to maintain a distance from the media. Following the "Climategate" email scandal, the organization is emphasizing extreme rigor and centralized communication through co-chairs. Critics argue this lack of transparency is inappropriate for a scientific body tasked with informing global climate policy and carbon taxation.

ipcc· rajendra pachauri· climate change· ar5· climategate

1:36:21 But I know Tesla, at least Toyota you know they were bailing from that big facility in Fremont. That big plant there abandoning it right now. They kind of made some sort of a phony baloney deal with Tesla to keep the plant going even though I think all the laid off people are still laid off...I don't know And then the this so a lot of the global warming science that is in and all scientists agree John Is based on the IPCC report number five for the fourth assessment report? This of course is you know, so so you can just see where this is going and we need this cap-and-trade to Triple our electricity expenses to move to a solar panel for taxation. Let's face it Yeah So that we need by the way We have a lot of new listeners and I want to give them a little background on our take on global warming go for Just kind of a simple look at it. We think that

1:37:21 that cap it did the whole thing is a scam for a cap and trade uh... system that is set up by al gore what makes this all things suspicious as algorithm for you know the progenitor of promoting global warming and that though the whole thing any also owns the carbon tax exchanges he owes his taxes changes the whole thing's a big scam to create more taxation because at because basically I think the two of us agree on this one thing if anyone was serious about this carbon dioxide thing there would not be cap and trade, there would just be CAP. Yeah! Cap it! The whole trade thing is... If you're serious just cap it You're apparently not serious now we are skeptical It's the carbon credits trading I'm sorry Right So all of this global warming is based on this report and of course

1:38:10 Back in the, this kind of fell apart because all the scientists were emailing each other and there's a huge skepticism now amongst the public in general about the validity of the data that the scientists had. So Al Gore has been sidelined he needs to shut up and by the way he was out of control I think that you know they like yeah Al you blew it okay? You got your Emmy, you got your Grammy, you got your Oscar, you got everything you want So here, here's a hooker. All right? Now shut up! So he's out, he's sidelined and now they have to start up the fifth report The fifth assessment report from the IPCC It's AR5

1:38:52 And of course this is led by that jabroni Pachauri who has his own investments and ties to the oil industry. He's got conflict interests all over the place, and he looks a little like the devil himself. The devil! He does look like Diablo So he sends out a little note out to the scientists Have you read this note? Nope, read it Okay I'll read the salient points It's a very short note it's one pager Delighted to welcome you as a CLA LA review editor for the fifth assessment report of the IPCC. I would like to congratulate you on this development because, as you are aware we are receiving an overwhelming number of nominations which was in fact over 50% large...I don't know what that means. Does nomination mean money or nominations people coming in?

1:39:38 50% larger than we receive for AR4. I think it's money, I think... I think there are people coming in but go ahead. No no no Anyway as a group of scientists who would be responsible for authoring AR5 We will be dedicating your valuable time to a period of four years or so while this extremely important report is being prepared made up In your new role, you would not only be contributing to the assessment of new knowledge but also providing decision makers and the public at large with extremely valuable information on the basis of the challenge of climate change and how it can be met effectively. The success of IPCC has resulted in much more focused attention on the work of the panel and much closer scrutiny

1:40:22 of every word that we publish, he's now referring of course to Climategate which imposes on us a heavy responsibility to see that errors of any kind are completely eliminated from the AR5. From the fifth report. We would therefore have to work diligently and with a level of rigor perhaps not seen in previous reports." He is like okay now we really got to tighten ship boys For this purpose you need to familiarize yourself thoroughly with established IPCC procedures, fully conscious of demands that society has placed on us. I would also like to emphasize that enhanced media interest in the work of the IPCC would probably subject you to queries about your work and the IPCC. My sincere advice would be that you keep a distance from the media

1:41:07 And should any questions be asked about the working group with which you are associated with, please direct all such media questions to the co-chairs of your working group and for any questions regarding the IPCC to the Secretariat of the IPCC. Keep your distance from the media! Isn't that like bullcrap? Isn't this science isn't it supposed to be open aren't you're supposed to be transparent keep your distance... Not if you're doing this kind of work Thank You Do you mean making stuff up well or whatever Amazing interpreting a certain way with a certain predisposed Conclusion so we need to be on these guys everywhere. She needs to be hounding them for information So they can yeah, well good luck you're not gonna get anywhere after the last embarrassment They're just scientists

Healthcare Bill 1099 Reporting Requirements

A provision in the new healthcare reform bill requires small businesses to issue 1099 forms for all purchases of goods exceeding $600 annually, not just services. This change is expected to create a massive paperwork burden for entrepreneurs who must now collect tax identification numbers from every vendor, including retail stores. The hosts compare this level of bureaucratic oversight to the restrictive financial laws of the Soviet Union.

1099· healthcare reform· small business· irs· dodd-frank

1:41:57 So, a couple of interesting things. A little asides that are just completely... There's a classic I... My jaw dropped when I heard this. I was listening to way too much C-SPAN this week. Good man! My jaw dropped and my wife says yeah that's bullish she said she had they listen to this too you have to play the health care 1099 clip there's apparently the health care... You didn't know this? No, I didn't know this. Oh okay...I think i mentioned it when I read the bill It's alright..it's great to have in audio Well I didn't know that you...I mean I think you may mention something but I had no idea We'll have to send a 1099 for every fart you make You'd like if your small business

1:42:45 and you're buying products so you can remanufacture or do whatever, you have to give them a 1099. You use the messenger service you know not only have to give a 1099 but you have to get all their details in advance these people who've got their own business to run explain the 1099 to our foreign... A 1099 is that is a thing that small businessman gives a contractor like for example I was part-time worker let's say and he once makes over $1000, so I think it may be less but you have to give the government of form with all his information on its under 600 I believe. Is six well dropped used to be 1000

1:43:24 You have to fill out his ID, he's got to give you the social security number. You have do all this stuff and say how much you paid him and send him a copy then you have to send the copy to the government for every... This has always been common thing with employees but you don't do it for your people you're buying stuff from. Yeah like the Mac store Now is it this by the way would do nothing more than consolidate a lot of purchasing because now instead of being like a guy, I'd say I'm running a store and I want to have 50. You know what? Have all this cool stuff in from all these different people Well, it's going to be a little ponderous if I have to give everybody... find out all his details about their business and give them 1099s just because i'm buying a couple salamis. It's ridiculous but anyway play the clip cause it comes out and turns out nobody... And obviously didn't pay attention when you brought up the first time One of things that concerns me is the health care reform bill that we passed Because one of the provisions in that is a new requirement on filing form 1099

1:44:27 And that probably doesn't seem like a big deal to most people, but now instead of just services we're going to have to file on goods and so probably we're going to go from 10 ten ninety-nines a year for business to 200 or 2000. I'm not sure. Do small businesses understand the paperwork burdens that are coming down the road even if Congress doesn't increase taxes? No, I don't believe that they do. I think that this 1099 issue is the hidden, you know sort of the gorilla in the room because a lot of small businesses particularly the very smallest don't keep their records contemporaneously They should but they don't

1:45:11 And at the end of the year, they'll add up their payments for various things and provide us with information. But they're not in a position and they don't pay attention to the fact that before you would have under the bill, they would have to keep track contemporaneously. Before they paid someone they would have to get their relevant information and I don't believe that they do understand that at all. I know there's a bill before Congress to undo that provision I don't know where it's going, but I don't believe small business understands that at all. Nor do the CPAs do we've been talking about it a great length and it's really a question of what is the right thing to do because many small businesses deal with other small businesses

1:46:00 and they don't want the reporting, the recipients don't want it. There are many clients who will come to their preparer with their 1099s particularly if there professionals who sell this services. Yeah so also if you buy a Mac at the Apple store I think have to send Apple a 1099 that will be your business case yes yeah it's ludicrous yeah that was in the bill is a number of really weird things another one that was hidden, it's almost along the... It is just to make whatever we do illegal. This is reminding me of Soviet Russia I told this anecdote before and I'm going to tell it again you go in and its illegal during the soviet era when you went to russia it was illegal to have soviet money outside of the country

1:46:50 It was illegal to take rubles out of the country. You couldn't take a ruble outside the country, so when you got to the airport there was almost a line where you were actually officially in the country and you're out of the country on this side of the line and you can have rubles on this side of the line meanwhile all that do all the luggage carts were on this side of the line and they all required a ruble So you could not get a luggage cart without immediately violating Russian law. Right, I remember that! I went there too it was the same thing yeah toilet roll work I gave him a toilet...I tipped the guy a toilet roll he was happy That would have been a big deal back then Yeah and they can't a tuna fish yeah they loved that that was awesome so another little ditty that's hidden away in the Twinkle Toes bill The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act i.e., the Federal Reserve Empowerment Act

CHAPTER 24 / 29 Discussion

Conflict Minerals and Swine Flu in The Stand

The Dodd-Frank Act includes a consumer protection provision requiring manufacturers to certify that their products are free of "conflict minerals" from the Congo. In a separate observation, a clip from the 1994 miniseries "The Stand" is highlighted for its background radio chatter mentioning "swine flu" years before the 2009 pandemic. This is presented as an example of the "global elite" placing clues about future events in popular media.

conflict minerals· congo· the stand· stephen king· swine flu

1:47:41 The provision requires manufacturers to hire independent auditors to certify with the SEC that their products use conflict-free materials, i.e., materials that aren't mined in the Congo or adjoining countries. Stuff like lithium and stuff we use in computer products will have to be conflict free and you have to prove it. Now what does that have to do with consumer protection? It doesn't protect any consumers I know of! No Of course not. Maybe it protects their guilty conscience, but it's got nothing to do with consumer protection. Consumer protection is about getting screwed ripped off by banks and others including the government and trying to prevent that sort of thing and they're doing nothing for that. Producer Joe's girlfriend Nikki who has been kind of peeved at him because he's singing all our jingles all day long I understand that can get quite annoying

1:48:40 She actually has converted now to a no agenda supporter and she found an awesome I'm just awesome when you know, it's always fun to see how the the global elites they always want to rub it in our faces And you know set it up. Remember The Matrix where Keanu Reeves What's his name? Neo in the movie where his passport expires on September 11th, 2001. You know these little like clues and stuff that people like me love? So she was routing around on YouTube and she found a little clip from The Stand by Stephen King How old is that movie? Old! Old okay so listen to the radio in the background in this scene from The Stand... The Plague Part 5

1:49:34 and uh... listen very closely this is in maine june twentieth the other hand swine flu they don't care do that this is like rubbing in our face take this stupid stand 1994 it's nice they were ready for it weren't they? It's just a swine flu. That's cute, thats funny so there was a toot of the head that took place in Texas damn not hurt a Texas mayor of Coppell Texas 50 years old

CHAPTER 25 / 29 Discussion

Coppell Texas Mayor Murder-Suicide and Natural Gas

The death of Coppell, Texas Mayor Jayne Peters and her daughter has been ruled a murder-suicide by medical examiners, but local controversies suggest a different motive. The town is situated over a significant natural gas deposit, and Peters was involved in complex land leasing negotiations. The hosts suggest the "murder-suicide" narrative may be a cover for a hit related to the valuable mineral rights beneath the city.

jayne peters· coppell· texas· natural gas· murder-suicide

1:50:24 And you know that there's something fishy when, oh man Google is so useless. I spent an hour on this story yesterday because of course immediately it's deemed a murder-suicide apparently she killed her 19 year old daughter and then killed herself And this is, you know she's been mayor of this town. It's right near Dallas-Fort Worth, right near the airport You know there's like 35 thousand people it's upper middle class No one saw the signs but everywhere and by the way the coroner says oh suicide The medical examiner I'm sorry The medical examiners say it's clear science in it's a suicide So that always perks my ears

1:51:09 So I go on a Google search. Turns out this town is sitting on a humongous gas bubble and there's been all these leases and land controversies, and i think she got offed! I think she either didn't want to sign the lease or was holding out or something... And I think they just went in and killed her And I've got four stories in the show notes about this natural gas. And it's a mother load and she was, you know they were trying to lease land next to it and do sideways drilling to get into it and all the residents knew about it and everyone is holding out they want their percentage because its underneath their land. You know what is story we get? Murder-suicide right off the bat like an hour after takes place Sounds fishy

1:52:06 And why was she kidding me? Obviously the teen daughter must have been visiting or something. No, she goes to the high school there No I'm saying no, I'm saying at home Yeah, okay well then they had the killer yeah can't bring in a hit You can't just hit the mom you got to get along with the daughter there without killing her too so you do a murder-suicide There's no reason for this woman. I've been looking at pictures of them that you know that everyone knew this woman since kindergarten There was no I don't know It's like perfect. She shoots her daughter I it seems unlikely yeah, but then you dig and a cryptic No What was the note do you have a copy because it says it was cryptic But I don't see a copy of it no I couldn't find that it Was something about I guess her husband passed away of cancer two years ago Yeah, so she gonna kill her daughter. Yeah, gee my husband died So let me kill my daughter that does that make any logical sense to anybody know but having a huge gas bubble? Yeah That makes sense yeah, I'm saying okay something going on there

1:53:02 and uh... this is just another reason that everybody should have their entire house wired with cameras hooked to the internet and have a gun or two yeah guns are good in the home responsible yet did you know if you want to come into the head could bring it on bitch bring it on the watch tower is ready uh... there's other ways Yeah, I know. I'm keeping my eye on Mickey too and believe me Believe me. I cook my own what do you think? I'm cooking these days? I'm cooking my own food not taking any risk There's a pre-roll on this one So there's something else really bad that is going on and this is particularly in in Minnesota And I think we have this woman joy all Meyer

Debtors Prisons and Arrest Warrants for Unpaid Bills

In Minnesota and several other states, creditors are increasingly using the court system to issue arrest warrants for individuals with unpaid consumer debts. While being in debt is not a crime, missing a court-ordered hearing regarding the debt can lead to a "contempt of court" warrant. This trend has seen a 60% increase in cases, effectively reviving the concept of debtors' prisons in the United States.

debtors prison· minneapolis· credit card debt· warrants· minnesota

1:53:52 They are, well here listen to the report and we can discuss it right after. Hold on a second let me just cue this up This is uh... where's this from? The Star Tribune Minneapolis People arrested on the street and thrown in jail all because of unpaid bills Why is this happening? Thanks for joining us for The Star Tribune Sunday Preview I'm Glenn Howitt And this is Chris Sears Chris, you wrote the story. Tell us why people are being arrested and why the rest of us should be concerned? People are being arrested in part because creditors are becoming more aggressive about collecting old debts What's happening is this...people are falling behind on their bills and when they ignore a court judgment then a creditor has the right to actually get a warrant issued for your arrest Now what this means is that you could be driving to work You could be

1:54:47 at work or you could be at your house and then one day a sheriff's deputy might show up and say he or she has a warrant for your arrest. So, you get the gist here? And this is rampant! This is like 1,000 cases in 2009 alone it jumped 60% since then so next step SWAT yeah I mean if you're behind credit card payments are a lot of it Go cash ladies and gentlemen, how can you how can they do this? How do you get thrown in jail I mean yeah that there's a lot of they could take away You know there's a lot of things they can do. There's a lot of financial hardships that can be placed on you but throwing you in jail

1:55:30 Yeah, why can't they just... yeah normally I mean with the IRS- It's not a crime! It's not a crime. it's it's not nice and it's not the way uh the commercial society is supposed to work but okay so I can't pay my credit card then they go and get a warrant and they throw me in the slammer huh? And it's increasing in Arkansas Arizona Washington state everywhere where there's a horrible economy Illinois Southwest Indiana some judges jail debtors for missing court ordered debt payments and they keep them in jail until you raise a minimum payment. Well, how does that work? I'm in jail! I'm in the slammer, in the big house How can I then raise a minimum payment This is messed up This is Gitmo Nation extreme This is trying to get more people into prison system They're just preparing when drug laws change And next thing we gotta find some other way loading up these jails for slave labor Well, I don't like it Duh

1:56:33 It's depressing. This is the problem, these kinds of things are going on and nobody is up in arms about it and these news reporters are da-da-da-da-da... And oh what do you think? Oh yes that's terrible! I mean there nobody does anything its just a bunch of people moaning and groaning we're becoming a nation of complainers like Canada. Oh my God hello Great White North get moanation Great White North We love you we really do please Alright, a couple of... let me do some upbeat stuff before we get out of here. First of all, we missed a very important date I can't believe we missed it It was kind of in between shows July 6th 2010 I can't believe we missed the date John Was the world ending?

John Hutchison Anti-Gravity Lab for Sale on eBay

Canadian inventor John Hutchison has listed the anti-gravity portion of his laboratory on eBay with a starting bid of $50,000. Hutchison is known for the "Hutchison Effect," a collection of phenomena involving levitation and the fusion of dissimilar materials using electromagnetic fields. The sale includes the equipment necessary to replicate his experiments, and Hutchison is offering to set up the lab for the buyer for an additional fee.

Myopia Causes and Eye Exercise Theories

New research suggests that the rise in myopia is linked to lifestyle factors such as close-up work and screen time rather than purely genetics. A study from the Berkeley School of Optometry found that bifocal contact lenses can significantly reduce the progression of nearsightedness in children. The hosts discuss alternative "crackpot" theories involving eye exercises to reshape the eyeball and maintain 20/20 vision without corrective lenses.

myopia· nearsightedness· eye exercises· bifocals· genetics

1:59:07 UK the science may be in but your volume just dropped by about 50% really I'm still here though you hear me yeah yeah I can't turn up the volume the sciences in according to Metro in the UK Scientists prove the chicken came first not the egg. Well my comment on the chicken coming before the egg is that the chicken, the first chicken that laid an egg must have been in for a big shock. It's like holy crap what the hell? I don't feel too good Anyway, I will say that even though it's a setup and we're being prompted to bash the president. I feel really good certainly about Gitmo Nation West in particular but all over the United States people are very unhappy They are starting to say hey wait a minute this is messed up you're lying This BP thing is horse crap You're all corrupt

2:00:04 i like it feels good does feel like people are are starting to get and see and i think that this nation of complainers does have a chance of turning around doing something about it the only thing we gotta watch out for forces that you know we don't uh... c hillary clinton is our savior because she apparently will be put forward as the saving grace the nation Then I think there's something to that that she might resign her Secretary of State status But I feel it It feels good everywhere except get more nation lowlands where they're still celebrating their second place in the World Cup And they still don't have a government. I might point out it's amazing So as you think is the last thing we're wrapping up right so let me die There was one clip I'd like to play because it's just one of these things that bugs me to no end Is that?

2:00:51 All these years you think something is true because from just empirical observation, like how South America and Africa kind of look like they fit together like pieces of a puzzle. And until 1957 that was considered to be bogus no way! Then after 1957 they found the tectonic plates and said oh huh interesting. Well here's another one that, it galls me by the way I am taught misinformation in this report on glasses and vision is just a capper, it's just the cherry on top of the bogus ice cream we're served by the education and science community. Question for you are you wearing glasses or contact lenses to actually watch this newscast? Well Lindy tells us it may no longer have to do with your genes actually your lifestyle could be leading to your short-sightedness

2:01:44 belief Asians are more myopic or nearsighted than other races. Chinese children get nearsighted sooner at a younger age they get worse more quickly and they end up more nearsighted as an adult One theory, the strong emphasis on academics in the Asian culture In Singapore for example they start school early at age three 80% of the college-age population there are nearsighted We were reading a lot in the dark too. In the dark? Yeah, at night. Ten-year old Robert Huang and his twin Sarah started wearing glasses at a younger age. In the classroom I had to kind of squint to see the words but recent studies show Asian children are no longer the only ones who can't see well

2:02:32 The increasing use of video games, computers texting any close-up work has resulted in a 20% rise in myopia among all races and people who cannot see far also find their eyes are getting worse every year. San Bruno optometrist Dr. Thomas Oller says he knows why if you put glasses on they focus in the center they don't focus in the periphery the eye grows you become more nearsighted and every year that keeps ongoing So we're correcting it wrong? Yes, I think we are. So you're able to wear the contacts all day... Dr. Ahler says the solution by focal contact lenses even for his youngest patients like Robert who has seen his eyes worsen dramatically in one year

2:03:14 In a clinical trial at Berkeley School of Optometry, Dr. Aller tested them on children He found those wearing them had a 90% reduction in their near-sighted eyes getting worse It just turns out that bifocal contacts have this ring of power that brings the focus in...in the periphery and it solves that problem somewhat accidentally And its worked extremely well Alright thats enough Wait a minute So did I just hear an Asian kid say we're squinting? Yeah, that was cute. What the hell? But that's the reason so I was always told oh yeah you got this in college and high school no no no You're not near study because you're reading books all day

2:03:56 You're near-sighted because of your genetics and now it turns out, and of course all the people all these years and you've noticed them out there. The so called crackpots who are out there saying no if you do this eye exercises and you do on a daily basis stretch your eyeball this way that way to get the eyeballs more round you'll always have 20-20 vision I know a guy who had lousy vision he's in the england and he talked to me about this years ago and he's now twenty twenties fine you can see beautiful or give us a address i'd like to know there are some exercises so that i actually was a simple exercise you do essentially move your eyeball to the corners of four corners and u you push it as far as they can to get those muscles so the muscles what happens with them near-sightedness of support according to divide exercise guys is it starts unity with certain muscles get overworked on the eyeball and they start to stretch did the shape of the high

2:04:45 and you have to get all these muscles so they're working together. It's just an exercise, but anyway I'm always... That's bull! But it always made logical sense and now okay now it happens to be the case because I guess the Asian kids are all gotten nearsighted cause of all the reading they do this is a reason I stay away from the monitor by the way when I do computing on my way back and use a special keyboard that has a pad on or something so don't have to be hunched over. And then makes a lot of racket You know it does. But anyway, the point is that this is just another example of who were just fed misinformation and not for any nefarious purpose but the fact that continues to be resolved over time and you keep hearing the new facts oh well old facts are wrong and new facts are right I mean this is annoying That's just annoyance sorry John C.
