Choking the Puffin

00:00 Oh, the boys at the club won't believe me, I keep taking the second question first! Adam Curry, John C. DeVore Act. It's Sunday, April 10th, 2011, it's time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 2, Niner Four. This is no agenda. And from Northern Silicon Valley where I'll bet that the connection is come and go, I'm John C. Dvorak.

00:48 We got here hey in the morning there Johnny boy in the morning to you and in the morning all ships at sea and boots on the ground all over the world especially in the areas that were just about to invade We're coming your way bitches just so you know we're America And in the morning to all the human resources who are charged up and ready to go just the way their government loves them especially the What is it? 700 people now in the chat room or on the stream at knowage industry calm Nice to see y'all in the morning for your early back service. So the big news, of course John

01:24 The big, big, big, big, big, big news. Well, we have a budget. That's the real big news. No, that's not the big news. What are you talking about? Do you actually live with your feet on the street, my friend? I don't think so. Is something to do with Justin Bieber? No. No, the big news and I'll have you know that uh Miss Mickey took me walking yesterday. She took me for a walk She took you for a walk. I have a leash on you. Oh, yeah She took yeah, absolutely. She took me for a walk. I'd run in Canyon, which is kind of this famous walking path named after Damon Runyon Could be was he famous? Yeah. Yeah, what did he do?

02:06 He wrote, Damon, he wrote Rummian-esque stories. Oh, his brother wrote Rubin-esque stories. So we're in the Runyon Canyon and what's nice about this is all of Los Angeles that is health conscious, that and of course other men being walked and single dads with their children on the weekends go walking in Runyon Canyon and what I like is you know we just kind of you know we don't really speak to each other when we're walking mainly because I'm out of breath And because it's a pretty steep incline, but you hear all these conversations walking past you and the number one topic of conversation John the news and this is why I can say I have my boots on the ground. Well, you probably nailed it. What is it? Pia got kicked off of American Idol. This was uh, This is the news who? Pia, who's Pia? Pia? Well, she was a contender. Pia?

03:00 Pia Zadora. Yeah, she was a contender for the hiatus and everyone's upset Steven Tyler Randy Jackson J Lo all upset that Pia got kicked off. This is impossible. How could this be? Of course? She has a record contract now, but detail wait a minute. Those are the judges that you you're complaining. Why would they complain? Because though she kicked off because the audience voted her off. Oh the audience. Yeah. Yeah. No, they don't get to vote the judges You see this is American Idol if you follow it, right? I don't care anymore. All it shows to me is that there's a million people in this country that apparently can sing very well and cannot make a living doing it. She got a record contract though, that's why she left. Yeah, some of the better ones always do. Having a record contract doesn't mean you're a success. No. But I was very happy for the news channels and the nightly news because they needed the ratings.

03:56 So the budget showdown was exactly what they wanted and was perfect for them the budget showdown was the worst piece of theater I've seen for years yeah, but they you know they use all the promos and they had all the the guys on you know the The satellite trucks everywhere and they had the little news leakages and it was the best they could do they needed that though They really needed it. They even preempt peers got preempted and Well, that's a plus. That would boost the ratings right there. Yeah, he got preempted. Wolf, whoa. But Wolf had to say, Wolf Blitzer in for Piers Morgan. That must have hurt him, right? He was like, I'm gonna say this crap. I'm Wolf Blitzer, damn it. I was in the first Gulf War. What are you talking about? Bobbing and weaving.

04:43 So, yeah, now of course as predicted over a week ago on this program, now the real conversation starts which is about raising the debt limit. This is what all the Sunday talk shows are talking about because that's really what this was all about. It's not about Planned Parenthood. Please. In fact, a couple of things about these debates I want to just at least put, I like to know how dumb they think the public is. Oh, wait a minute. They're right. Well, except for the people listening to this show, they're pretty dumb, John. So it goes like this. So they have the big Planned Parenthood debate, which is bullcrap. I mean, it's bullcrap on so many levels. It's like one, why are we funding Planned Parenthood in the first place? And if we are funding them, so what do they do with the money? It has to be.

05:26 they say well uh... the republicans say well they're giving money for public funded abortions and the democrats say no we're giving it's a million dollars a day by the way which contrasts nicely with a hundred and eighty million dollars a day we spend in afghanistan we can take a nickel away from that yes unless to go back to that it did democracy no doubt the million dollars a day goes to plant parenthood specifically not for abortions how do you do that kind of bookkeeping Well, yeah. So anyway, so that's so it's bullcrap. And then the other bullcrap thing is the is all the EPA. The Democrats say, oh, the Republicans want to go back to the days of air pollution. But the whole EPA debate is only about the carbon credit tax bullcrap, which the EPA is trying to employ. And the Republicans don't want to see it. But the Democrats now call carbon credit, the whole carbon credit scam, clean air, clean air and air pollution. Clean air.

06:20 There is clean. How can you be a John? How can you be against clean air? You just can't be that and that horrible a person But then when we go meta and take a look at the whole but that the perspective from a distance Yeah, these are like minor debates over niggling amount of amounts of money when we have the the entire military budget untouched in fact, I'm listening has skyrocketed since the days of Reagan in fact, I believe that the the national debt in the week that they talked about this 25 or 30 billion dollars that the whole thing was about cutting in this theater, the national debt actually went up by 50 billion in that week. It's like because of the delay it went up more. It's ridiculous. It's total, total theater. Total theater. And then the one last aspect of this is the

07:14 Well, you know, I actually have a clip. Let's see where it is. What you got? I got the clip about... let me... I have to look at the clips. But it's the one that refers to the budget that's in your list. Let's see. I got too many. Carbon as air pollution? No. Oh, actually, why don't you play that one anyway? Okay, let's have a listen. What is the Democratic argument and the Republican argument in each case? Well, the Democratic argument is that if the Republicans wouldn't keep insisting on introducing ideology in the form of abortion restrictions and clean air regulations, then this wouldn't even really be a problem. But the Republican position is, look, we had an election in November. It showed that people want huge cuts in government spending. The Democrats are refusing to go along with that, and that's the problem. And again, the Democrats say it's the Republicans who are being reckless and want to slash government in all kinds of terrible ways.

08:11 Okay, that's just an example of NPR's, or actually not NPR, but News Hour, that's PBS's slanting it kind of toward the Democrats in a very subtle way by bringing in the air pollution thing when we're really talking about carbon tax. I just wanted to point that out. But here's the one I was looking for. It says, well, what it says is no shut down blather. That's not quite what it says. I misspelled a word. No wonder I glossed over it, trying to keep the show clean. The deal means hundreds of thousands of government employees will get their checks. This military wife won't have to fight creditors while her husband's fighting the war.

08:47 I have two kids who have medical conditions and appointments to go to. I have to go to Duke with them and there's just so many things. It was a relief of knowing that I don't have to make a ton of phone calls to financing companies. Washington's annual cherry blossom parade didn't have to shut down or scale down. Thousands of tourists in town to see the monuments and museums got an unexpected civics lesson. Yeah. So, okay, let's get this straight. By the way, I want to remind everybody out there, 15 years ago, and I think just a year or two before that, the government had shut down completely. It's happened several times in history. Yeah, it happens all the time. So it's not a big deal, but okay, why would they have to shut down a parade in Washington State, the Cherry Blossom Festival, because of a government shutdown? What's the connection? Just to make you aware of it. Just to piss you off.

09:37 Why can't people, they're showing these people taking pictures of the Washington Monument. The government shuts down so you can't take photos anymore? I mean this is bullcrap! Duh! That's why we exist John, to bring people the real news that's being covered up while this charade is taking place. It's unbelievable. I mean it's just galling and they play it on the news like it's oh you people can now go back to Washington and take photos. Yeah but this I'm telling you this was all about ratings for the news organizations. It was funny I was of course there's nothing on the on the Sunday talk shows I get to see like half an hour uh when I'm having my pancakes which I have once a week

10:17 And, um, and you know, whenever, and I like the guy because I've had dinner with him. He's an okay guy, but whenever, uh, Tim Shriver is on meet the press, like they got nothing. It's like, it's literally like, uh, we have no guests. Who can we call? Tim Shriver. Oh. And then we've also got a, what's his name? The mad money guy. What's his name? Kramer. Kramer. What's he doing? No guests or someone canceled or whatever. So I'm like, ah, okay. Well, but you know, it's like, You know that there's just absolutely nothing going on. Nothing. There's just nothing. I think they're all on a break right now. They're already ramping up for the next thing. We've got the pathetic story of the week here in Oakland.

11:03 Yeah, you live in Oak Town, John? No, but I mean, Oakland's right next to us and so I can say that, you know, we have a pathetic story here in Oakland, and I think my reference point's okay. I think it's legal to make the comment in such a way. Right. All right. Play this free health care in Oakland thing. So tell me if you think this is kind of weird. There's a in the Oakland Coliseum parking lot waiting for a chance to see a doctor for free. The free clinic is hosted by Tennessee based remote area health care. And the group organizes medical, dental and vision professionals to provide services for free. People began lining up last night for a chance to get free glasses, major dental care and other essential medical services.

11:47 I got out here about 9.30, 10 o'clock and I've been out here all morning standing in line and you know I think it's worth it. The clinic will run for three more days. People are advised to get to the Coliseum at midnight to make sure they can get that appointment. Vouchers are then handed out about 3.30 in the morning for the day's screenings which start at 5.30 a.m. So was this that organization that does this for free or that goes around the world? Yeah, it's an organization that does it up in the Appalachian Hills. Yeah, but they do this in like third world countries, right? Yes. Yeah. Well, that's Oakland for you. I found it to be disturbing. Well, we had this before. They were at the LA Coliseum. They had one of these days and I remember us discussing it on the show and we found it disturbing then too. Well, it's still disturbing. Yeah, it's terribly disturbing.

12:40 Hey, but there's great news, John. I'm so happy. Remember I had a minor meltdown about a week and a half ago when we went to war against Libya and I deemed that pretty much unconstitutional since no approval was sought from Congress and it didn't seem like it fit under the War Powers Act since there was no imminent threat. Against the United States. Well, my fears have been allayed Allayed? Yeah, is that the right term? Allayed? I don't know if there's but but how? Well, I've come across a memo from Oh, yeah a memo a presidential memo from principal deputy assistant attorney general Caroline D Krass and we just say that name again Caroline D Krass because her mama should be so proud of her and

13:29 She's a lawyer, go figure. And she sent a memo about the constitutionality of this war in Libya. And it's 13 pages. And of course, you know me, I went through it all. It's doable, but it references a whole bunch of other documents as usual, so I spent some time on it. You know how John, you've been in court and I know you've been an expert witness but I've actually been in court and I've had other parties who were against me. Have you ever been arrested? No, never been arrested. Somebody wanted to know. I know, I know. And if I had that's where we would have met, in jail. But if you've ever been in court and you hear the opposing attorney speak, I have to say several times that this happened to me, I'll sit there and go like, well, yeah, if you put it that way, it sounds like I'm a dick. You know, they can really make it sound good, right? They're good at this. So principal deputy. Sorry. So what they do. Yeah. Principal deputy attorney, assistant attorney general Caroline D. Kras, who is either on the way for a promotion or will soon be found in a dumpster.

14:31 Concludes that, quote, the president has had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force in Libya because, He could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest. See, what she does is she references Article 2 of the Constitution, which states the President bears the quote, vast share of responsibility for the conduct of our foreign relations and independent authority in the areas of foreign policy and national security. So what they do is they folded Article 1 into the War Powers Act and said it's legal.

15:07 So there you have it. The science is in and it's legal. Now the funny thing about this memo, date it was sent, April 1st, 2011. I thought that was just beautiful. That is good. Yeah. So we're all set. We're all good. It's legal and power to them. Well, I think that's what they've been going on since the Vietnam War, the Korean War. In fact, the document references that exactly. Now, that also means we're not at war. no no no technically we're not so they can't do a lot of you know war stuff well what's interesting is itself like you know force people to save the aluminum foil or the pantyhose you can't wear pantyhose we need the night I mean it so you can't

15:57 You can't treat the citizenry as if we're at war, so you can't start censoring things and doing stuff like that. Well, I don't know, because they're not really calling it under the War Powers Act. This is something new. This is like, hey, you know, we just got to go and do it. And later on in the show, I spent, oh my God, I spent two hours and 44 minutes Watching I wanted to find out who Susan Rice really is since we talk about this woman all the time She's the ambassador to the United Nations. Well. I have a new woman to hate in my life by the way. It's her oh What an elitist bitch and that she's basically she was at the at a congressional hearing and there's some weird stuff going on We'll get to it later because some of the clips when you had there's a couple clips, and I want your opinion on it

16:43 There's something weird going on there, but she essentially was there to ask for 3.54 billion dollars to fund the United Nations our part our little contribution there and Yeah, and it was where yeah, oh a congressional hearing okay congressional hearing but more important And this is not work that I've done, but I figured I'd play a little bit of just the pertinent piece of this clip at the beginning of the show, and then I'd like to play the whole thing as a show closing clip. So it's a double shot of the good stuff. And this is Max Keiser, who I think we both like in general. He has some funny stuff. But actually it's not Max, it's his researcher. What's her name? Shelly Shelby something or other.

17:36 and yeah we have a point of conflict we do yeah what's the point of conflict well I had an end of show clip I wanted to play which I think it's got to be funnier which is but let me hear what this is and then maybe I'll just I'll just relent well she she does I mean I could have just explained it but it's cool how she does it Of course, we talked about the $378 billion that Wachovia Bank laundered from Mexican drug cartels, and of course, Wachovia Bank is now Wells Fargo.

18:11 and she connects two dots here which are absolutely astounding and worth listening to. A big US bank laundered billions from Mexico's murderous drug gangs. So this is the Guardian news and they've done a deep investigation into the story that we've covered before which is Wachovia Bank and they were found to have laundered $378 billion or 30% of Mexico's GDP in this time of drug money. The cocaine. Of cocaine, yes. $378 billion. $378 billion laundered through Wachovia, which of course now is owned by Warren Buffett's company Berkshire Hathaway. And of course he's never talked about that either. And it's a huge part of the Mexican GDP. And the bank paid a fine. Well, it's $378 billion in money laundering through the Casas de Cambio.

19:06 And they paid a $110 million fine, or less than 2% of one year's profit. I got interrupted. The Casas de Cambio, I think it's not just where you go change your money? The Casas de Cambio? Isn't that just the exchange place where you go and take your dollars and turn them into pesos or vice versa? Well, I think that's what it is. Well, you look that up while we continue because this is really good. that relates to this whole financial catastrophe. First of all, Wachovia started really getting involved in this Casa de Cambio in 2004, just when the violence really started getting extreme in the Mexican drug wars. In April and May of 2007, three years later, Wachovia, as a result of increasing interest and pressure from the U.S. Attorney General's office,

20:06 began to close its relationship with some of the Casas de Cambio. And then in July of 2007, all of Wachovia's remaining 10 Mexican Casas de Cambio clients operating through London suddenly stopped. July 2007. What happened in August of 2007? The world credit crunch. So there you go. So they go on to further extrapolate that once Mexico once the Mexican drug cartel said no, you know what screw it We're not gonna launder our money through you anymore. That was the only liquid assets that were coming into the banks and then right after that Wachovia and all these other banks started borrowing money from the Federal Reserve because there was no money. It's all drug money The whole thing is drug money everything

20:54 Legalized drugs. Yes, no because then the whole thing melts down you can't already melt it down now that it's melted down legalized drugs and we want to deal with this anymore no because then the okay all right and then you and I will stop doing this show and go into growing and I bet you know is the time you want to go into growing I bet you'd be really good you know we don't you know think now think about it why don't we just do that we would be really good together growing? Yeah, I think we've got enough for organicness in us. We could grow some really good stuff, man. That's probably true. It'd be better than what we're doing here. Oh, is it that bad? I was hearing, I can't listen to PBS anymore, our national treasure. No, we're ruining it for everybody, hopefully. Yeah, but and listen to it in your district if you're in the United States of Gitmo Nation.

21:48 And and please tell me are they now breaking four times an hour for? Breaking I'm telling you they're breaking four times an hour for sponsored messages. What's up with this? This is this is not this is commercial radio, and it's just as bad and we've got a carbonate code right here use the code PBS It's just it's it's disgusting and I mean, not only are they liars because they are a commercial organization, but now they're acting like one with these breaks. PBS, okay, it's your ministry of truth. I consider, by the way, we model ourselves and our way of asking for funding a little bit on the way PBS does, a little bit on the way churches do it. But we do it, honestly, we don't take anything but donor money.

22:38 PBS, I have to say, is probably the most adept organization at getting money from every which way. They get it from, I mean, NBC can't do this. PBS has, literally has commercials, they have underwriters, which are advertisers. they have government money coming in, why? And then they still beg for money from the public. It's as though you're watching NCIS and the next thing you know they take a commercial. We're taking a pledge break on CBS and then they stop the show and beg you for money with, we'll give you a free disc of NCIS for a hundred and fifty dollars for your pledge. Now I just want to say one thing to people who say PBS is not commercial.

23:20 Is and there's and I will tell you why because at the end of the day You the audience are their product towards their sponsors. That is what commercial Media is about on this show. We're not selling you You are not the product that we're passing off to somebody else at all then the end the show is the product that's the difference that is the difference between commercial and non-commercial and Well, I think these people have their nerve and I but but but because they're so they research this so well I have to assume that those four breaks that you're hearing now have been Researched and I think the meeting would go like this the guys are sitting around. What do you think we're gonna do? We need more money. Well, we only got a two billion dollars coming in. We need more. Well, let's do something We can do these carbonite ads. Okay, we'll study it see if the public will put up with it if the public just puts up with it Let's just do it

24:15 And they put up with it, the public, nobody says it, people defend them. That is exactly how the guy sounded in the meeting. And here's the sales weasel. We got no more inventory boss. We got no more inventory. We need more inventory. We're all sold out of inventory boss. Boss, we need some more inventory. What are we gonna do? We need some inventory. I can sell this stuff all the time, we need some inventory. The guy has a hair lip or what totally all these sales guys do it radio. Yeah, they're all they're all XD radio sales DJs who like yeah, they get kicked off the air and like I'm in sales now Okay, and they come up with those great wacky promotions That's that's why that's why radio promotions are so whack because I got it's ex DJs with hair lips who are selling it nothing against hair lips by the way

25:04 So let's thank our two executive producers for this show. We ran up a little short. Although actually, I think there... You know, let's put it off. Why don't you play a long clip because I have... What? Well, I just... We got to do it now, boy. Well, no, because there's one... I just realized I have another executive producer, I believe, stuck in the drawer downstairs who sent in a check Needs credit. Well, can we do him on the next show then it'll be okay. I don't I don't want to stop the show. Okay, okay. You want me to stop? Take a break. Hey, let's take a break everybody. Let's take a break for a commercial announcement. Let's thank who we have. We got Bruce Kaufman, Tempe, Arizona, 33333. He's donated 33333 to become a member of the 300 Club plus 3333 to finish his knighthood. Nice. So we'll be knighting him today. He sold some silver today. So I have a little extra cash. Originally bought 200 ounces for nine bucks today. Sold

26:01 67 of the ounces for 40 bucks. I would probably continue to go up but I figured I'd hedge it a little. Now you're playing with house money. Plus I need the cash to finish out the semester. He's a law school student, has no income. This is my point. Here's a student, he He studies what's going on. He makes money. He's with house money. You're absolutely right. He makes money because he believes in what's truly valuable and he's giving to something valuable. And he is. I'm just going to give him a little special extra. You've been. he do student everybody he also was a student he also wants us to play the gitmo national anthem of who play after i think our next black knight who had donated three hundred dollars become a member of the three hundred club and i want to invite people to the three hundred club we only have a few shows left and this is a big deal as a three hundredth show and i mean so we're not here you know uh... we're not here in a passing fancy

26:59 uh... you know i'm not going to have a good area in the tribune co canyon california hi guys is my donation jones rena club you guys are the best show on the internet which is absolutely the case uh... maybe he says is tied with another thing about hd t v in home theater they really enjoys anyway i hope you can send some carmen's daughter's way she's studying biomedical engineering uc riverside promise that she'll use your degree in a way that is approved by no agenda the major is kicking her but and she can use all the car machine get keep up to date You've got karma. Absolutely. You know, and it warms my heart to hear what our knights and dames are doing with their kids. It really does. And I hear it the other way around too. I think I have a note later on in the donation segment. You know, another young kid says, hey I turned my mom onto your show. And she's pissed off that it's not every day. Which I kind of like. Yeah, you would. So we need to play the national anthem.

28:03 Ladies and gentlemen, please rise for your Gitmo Nation National Anthem. I think I'm gonna sing along. In the morning, Gitmo Nation, we are all charged up to be. Human resources and servants in all lands and all ships at sea. From the east to west, down under to the lowlands and beyond. We are happy and distracted slaves in our hypno-nation song. In the morning

28:49 That's right everybody we are happy and distracted slaves there you go all right couple PR mentions to domain name forwards which are nice 33 dot me which I think is a good one considering our my obsession and with the 33 coded messages in the media and Carmen is ation.com which I think is something we actually mentioned on the show and before you know it there's a domain name that's registered and I want to thank all of the producers who are Working diligently at the no agenda news network no agenda news network.com We could use a couple different domain name forged for that as well and if you want to be a contributing producer

29:29 And this means work, this is not a donation thing, this is actual work to noagendanewsnetwork.com, just shoot me an email, adamcurry.com and let me know. Put noagendanewsnetwork in the title there. And it's growing, it's good. I mean you can look at this thing 24 hours a day and there's something on there. And it's all the kind of news we use. It's like real news. And there's some real news on there too. Which is how I found out about American Idol. And if you'd like to support the show, we highly appreciate it. We're not gonna stop for any breaks. Devorak.org slash N-A. Everybody else out there, you do have one very clear mission is to go out and propagate our formula. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Order! Say it loud and proud if you can. Shut up, slave! Speaking of shut up, slave, there was this amazing article

30:33 that just shows you how bad it's gotten. Kane County, which is where is that? That's probably like Georgia or something. There's now a new law in Kane County. I'll tell you where Kane County is in a second. You have to pay forty dollars per year for a dog walking license if you want to walk your dog. What? Yeah. No, no, this is for professional dog walkers. This is obviously for people who are running a business where they're, you know, the guy with the forty dogs and walking down the street. No, no, no. No, no, no. Yeah. No, it's not. Officials announced plans Thursday to charge Kane County residents forty dollars per dog per year for a permit

31:19 to walk dogs in any of the three off-leash dog park facilities in the preserves. Now, here's the kicker. A dog park or off-leash is not the same as walking your dog. It's like letting your dog run around and have some fun. That's not walking a dog. Walking a dog is putting the dog on a leash, walking down the street. I don't... I just reported, John. Don't shoot the messenger here. I think that you're getting this wrong. There's no... no county, no public officials are this stupid to do something like you're describing. I'm not believing it. Well, let me ask you who's really stupid because the deal is that if you purchase such a license, such a $40 per dog per year license, you as dog owner have to wear a tag around your neck while you're walking the dog. Check the date on this, April 1st, that's my guess. Really? No. No, April 7th. You sure that 7th is not a 1? Is that a line through the middle? No, no. I've gotten this from several people.

32:21 This is real. This is real. And you have to wear it around your neck. Hey slave, wear this tag. I love it. This can't be true. Why wouldn't it be true? It's so insane. The public should have a bunch of pitchforks and burning things and burn down City Hall. What is the public doing? Is this one of those things? Let's see what these guys will put up with. Well, they're putting up with it, believe me. Where is this again? It's from the Daily Herald, Kane County. I don't know where Kane County is. Let me see. This is great. I got a little picture of the person walking a dog with a tag around their neck. That's funny. I'm an official dog walker. I have a dog tag on me. Honey, I'm going to go walk the dog. Oh, honey, take your tag. Put your tag around your neck. Put your tag on.

33:22 Uh... What is this? Some dog haters. Yeah, well yeah, definitely. I don't know where that... Let me... It doesn't say. I don't know what this... Who's the mayor? Michael Vick? I would give you a little... Hot pockets! Big picture, local focus. I don't know where this... This is funny. I can't seem to find... Somebody in the chat room would dig it up. Where? Illinois. Illinois. Yeah, well, there you go. I just thought that was groovy. This is where we're going. This is where we're headed. And I think it's you. Why stop there? If you want to have your kid on a leash in the airport, we got to wear a tag. Yeah, well, too late now. My kids are grown up. Yeah, but you, but we still have plenty of other slaves we can dupe into this stupid practice.

34:08 It's a good idea to busy airport. No not about the leash thing That's funny, but that is to have a tag on It's like this is the reverse world in my day kids the dog had a tag That's the way I remember it But oh no no these days you have to wear the tag unbelievable so we celebrated a an anniversary Okay, not you and I unfortunately well. We got one coming up is the 300th show We'd like to get more members of the 300 Club Please we only we only have about fun. I know 20 and we're these all these all will be executive producers for the 300 Club and yes, and they're the executive producers like for the show they give the 300 and again twice double you get two credits on your bio It's a double shot here. I know agenda everybody

35:02 Yeah, no, it was the one year anniversary of the two to the head action by the Russians as they killed all of Poland's government. Remember that? You just went dead. No offense. You gave the two to the head and then you dropped about 5-10 db's. Sorry. This is the one year anniversary of the... the small enske Accident oh this Molensk. Yeah, that kills us killed all of those killed all of Poland basically all the 95 or 96 people the president his wife all the you know a whole bunch of government officials It was like so nice and clean and

35:42 So tidy and then Russia today, of course, you know, they're a great ministry of truth propaganda And by the way, they're trying the Fox thing now with hot chicks hot Russian chicks But they're not really and and they can't you know and They're doing it all wrong because they're speaking English, these Russian chicks, but they're not doing it like in a sexy spy voice. You know, they're doing it like in bad English. Which is a shame. Yeah, no, they have a couple. They gotta get their act together. One thing you gotta realize... Hey, hey, get your act together. We can teach you how to do this Russia today.

36:18 look the teacher hot is good and I like that is fine but it should be blonde generally because that's a show business look then you then you don't want the dumb you don't want a bunch of dummies I mean the mistake everybody makes is they don't realize that these most of these Fox women are multiple they have multiple degrees oh yeah they're extremely lawyers they have to run a couple doctors of jurisprudence they're not dumb and they're and they're trained media people and and the fact of the matter is if you go to a law school And you look across the student body, you'll find that there's probably about five or six beautiful women in there that are getting law degrees. You find them, ask them if they want to be in show business. Exactly! And the next thing you know, they're on Fox. I mean, that's what, they're just not some, they're more than just a dumb talking head. Right. Well, so Russia today hasn't figured that out yet. And they get like the brunettes

37:09 and they put thigh-high boots on them with jeans, which is hot, no doubt about it, but then they just don't have the... they don't talk right, you know, they have to talk like... and they should have names like Natasha. Yeah, no, it should all be these Russians fighting. Oh yeah, but okay, anyway, so... And they should be flirtatious. Yes, they're not. One of the keys to success is you look at the camera and you kind of flirt with an invisible audience. You flirt, you bat your eyes. John, you and I could do this. We have trained many, many talent. We have trained many women. We could double your ratings overnight. Hire us now! It's Crackpot and Buzzkill for all your news training.

37:47 That's right, and we'll do everything we'll do the hair the makeup. You know clothes bring in some hot full-series superstars some superstar makeup people and then you bring in some interns and you have the superstar makeup people's do the job and the interns can pick it up because they're not you can't keep paying Stop giving away the company secrets anyway, I'm forming the LLC later today. Oh Okay, so but they are of course propagandizing this in the most disgusting way. There was however a twist of irony. It was this new catastrophe that healed many of the wounds of the past. This symbolic hug was just the beginning. A year of unprecedented joint work to find the cause of the crash followed. So before he continues now you get a bunch of experts who are saying bullcrap this was murder only they don't say it exactly that way.

38:39 But what she's saying is exactly what they wanted. Well, you know, it's like we killed all the Polish government, but the whole idea was so we could get closer together, so we could become more friendly. and has been a success. My experience with the Russian investigators has been very good. They're a very high quality organization. There is no question about it. What guy got paid to say that? The Russian investigators are a high quality organization. What does it mean? It's just like a generic comment. You can say that about anyone. The commander, the captain of the Polish aircraft is to blame for this tragedy. Sure.

39:16 The facts though were hard to take for some. The investigation was beginning to take on political overtones with attempts in Poland to push the blame onto Russia. This report is a joke for Poland, exploiting the submissive attitude of the government of Donald Tusk. My claim... This guy by the way, he was the opposition and he didn't take the flight. He's like, oh I got the sniffles or something and he didn't get on the plane. When you see him talking here, his eyes are all shifty like, oh crap, I know these people know what happened here. He's like completely shifty looking. My claim, my accusation and I would personally ask that question to the air traffic controllers why they were not so hard to press the crew

40:03 The transcript of the pilot's last words show... By the way, transcript, key word. There were multiple warnings from the Russian air traffic controllers not to land in thick fog and to head to a reserve airfield. They couldn't forbid the plane from landing because that would have been against international aviation law. Poland disputes Russia's findings and is holding its own investigation. Diplomacy and politics should not hamper the investigation of facts. For us, facts are the most important. What is this music? This is a bad piece of propaganda. The Russians have got to come to the 21st century. Yeah, really. And this is terrible. This is so transparently crummy. Yeah. And meant to indoctrinate and propagate. Yeah, it probably would have worked in 1933. Well, and this is my whole point. We can fix this. We can fix the whole channel.

41:20 We could fix the channel quick. Yeah, yeah, I agree. So anyway, so of course my My feet my thesis my what's the word I'm looking for? Yes, my assertion assertions better assertion is these poor people were killed and the ones that didn't die in the crash were shot in the head in the woods this video of it yeah, just like oh, that's a guy Hey, what are you doing? You're still alive? No, we're gonna kill you So, anyway, so the pipeline is now running nicely in front of Poland, which was the whole point. All about the pipeline that the Polish president, who was against everything, the IMF against the Euro. Yeah, well, you know, it's like economic hitmen. That's the Russian version of the economic hitmen. They have them too. Maybe we got the idea from them for all we know. They gotta dress it up a little though. Get it together, people. Get it together. Yeah, they're doing it, yeah, right. We do a much better job. Ah, there's hope.

42:16 We have the United Nations on our side. Oh stop, stop with the United Nations. Now okay let's do this now. I have a couple questions about the United Nations because there's something going on that is really weird. So you've got this congressional panel and Susan Rice who is my age Who is it you know she she's got her glasses on the point of her nose. She's wearing the red outfit. So we're a pince-nez Oh Real it's just like and and of course the minute the good stuff happened I'm watching this it's two hours and 44 minutes about an hour and 54 minutes into it the sound craps out yeah Really, and then this is just when everyone's getting really pissed off. I think

43:01 I think not! Oh, I'm so sorry the sound is off and they couldn't hear each other and it's like someone literally- Pull the plug! It's getting hot in here! Pull the plug! So anyway, so she's in there to ask for three and a half billion dollars of financing of which 1.9 billion is towards peacekeeping mission. Peacekeeping! I.e. warshit war to go and buy some tanks and stuff and paint it blue. But a couple of, so they do these opening statements and first you have Representative Gerald Connolly and he sets the stage. This is before we get into question and answer session with the elitist war mongering woman known as Susan Rice.

43:47 my age to do your embarrassment Susan Rice and uh... so here's what he says about the United Nations all up your sleeves and make it better that's the answer and thirdly the idea that the UN is part of some global conspiracy to make a to create a global government is rehashed right wing claptrap we've been hearing for over sixty years ain't true and also unworthy of a great party even express Okay, I got it clap trap shut up slave. It's not global government And you should have seen all these guys like all these who is that guy Gerald Connolly. He's a Congressman from somewhere and you see all these other guys on the panel like high-fiving him literally John like That was a good one It's crazy now

44:44 Here's what, so then we have Representative Sherman and in his opening statement which I'll forego, he basically says, by the way, the way you're calculating this budget, this is bull crap because you're only doing like the cost of the tank, not the cost of the people running the tank. He went into it. So it's really more like, you know, eight billion dollars that she needs but she it's a whole lot He says you're not accounting properly and you're in fact You're breaking all rules of general accounting principles because you're only counting the hardware and not with not the people that it takes to fly them the people to support them we know it's cost a million dollars per per per soldier

45:24 to support them. This is a big lie. But then the whole thing starts to go crazy and then I understand now all of a sudden what this whole hearing is really about. It's not about the money, it's about something else and I need to ask you some questions about that because you might have some historical insight. I ask you to respond for the record to the accounting issue I brought up in my opening statement. I hope that the administration will use full-cost accounting, which is the legitimate system of accounting. and live with the political disadvantage of truthfully telling the American people how expensive it is for us to provide military assets to these UNN authorized activities. Peacekeeping missions! Because then you'll gain for our country the diplomatic advantage of telling the world

46:16 the enormous burden that the american taxpayer absorbs uh... in order to make available to such actions as libya are unique uh... military capacity unique uh... as to libya that issue is a reason as to what does the president have the power to do in the absence of a statutory authorization passed by both houses of congress Now you know I did that's actually not interesting because of course she says oh, it's written in the Constitution But all of a sudden he brings up This constant meme which is and I'll just quote it and then I'll play the clip from Ross Latina and letin and latina, what's his name? I don't know that he's though. He was the guy who was high-fiving the other guys old crumply up-looking guy and

47:09 It's all about they're so angry that the United Nations uses Israel, our partner, as a punching bag. The whole thing is and they're outraged like we're not gonna give you any money And this of course is the whole blow-up happened when the audio coincidentally quit We're not gonna give you any money if you don't stop all this punching Israel's a punching bag Israel's a punching bag Israel's a punching bag and here's an example of that since the UN continues to be used to propagate anti-israel bias and It's important for the United States to show leadership and stand publicly and unequivocally with the Jewish state. So accordingly, I respectfully request

47:52 Yeah. Because of course what happens in Durban is when all of the UN countries get together and they talk about human rights. Israel. Yeah, they talk about, they bitch about Israel. Israel's like throwing depleted uranium on people and it's like oh, but she immediately, she's the chairwoman of the hearing. It's the hate fest. And that the US will withhold funding from it.

48:34 Secondly that the US will push for the UN General Assembly to repudiate the Goldstone report just as it revoked the old Zionism is racism resolution in 91. I don't remember that one but yeah so this is the Goldstone report which we talked about and here's what happened. The Goldstone report was Professor Goldstone and he said well you know what it was pretty bad there that what everything that happened During the recent when was that like a year ago two years ago when they when? When Israel went in and kicked everybody's ass Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, so he said well, you know they had phosphor bombs that the burn civilians when they had their rockets on one side and the phosphorus right right and

49:20 And this was like a UN report and everyone's like, well, there you go. This is not okay. He retracted the report in an op-ed in the New York Times. He said, yeah, I know this has been going over the last few days. It's a big deal. Yeah. He's like, oh, you know, maybe I didn't quite see it right. Yeah. Like maybe someone held a gun to your head, dude, and said that you better pull that back, Goldstone. This is not going to happen. And so he's done that, but it's not enough. Or is the US going to push for a correction in the record to accurately reflect the retraction of Judge Goldstone on his report? And lastly, and if that resolution or statement or anything else is brought to the UN that would recognize a Palestinian state

50:05 or upgrade the status of the Palestinian Observer Mission that the US will do everything it can to oppose and stop such measures and will veto them at the Security Council before they get to the General Assembly. So this is what's so amazing to me. On the one hand we have President Obama saying we need a two-state solution, you know, we can all play kumbaya. I mean, gosh, it's been going back to Carter. How long has this been going on? Camp David talks. Kumbaya, Mallorca. Since World War II actually. Right, we're all gonna hold hands, it's gonna be great. But actually what everyone is saying is it'll never happen, it's not gonna happen, and we're gonna veto it through the Security Council in which we have veto power. It's like, okay, got your message. But then let's not waste any more time on it. Let's just say we're not gonna let it happen and move on and not pay three and a half billion dollars for the privilege. It's crazy.

51:01 And what is the deal then, John? Is the UN... Are we part of the UN? Are we like the ass-kicking UN that goes in and saves people by killing others in Libya? Or is there some kind of anger thing going on because they're anti-Semitic? I'm really confused. Yeah, you and me both. No, well I thought you could give me some historical insight. How silly of me. Yes, why you're crazy. Anyway, she did that there is one little coded message that I think is good. Let me get attention, attention. What? I was just gonna say the UN is just basically a kind of a quasi money laundering operation and it's something, it's useless. Yeah.

51:42 But they've really been out of shape about this. Everyone's like, Israel's a punching bag for the UN. Israel's a punching bag for the UN. Anyway, so here's Susan Rice with a message for George Clooney. In post-Sudan, the UN is in the process of... Nice little oops, Freudian slip there. Post-Sudan, I mean, oops! I didn't mean post-Sudan, I meant post-referendum in Sudan. In post-Sudan, the UN is in the process of assessing and talking to southern authorities about what would be the optimal follow-on configuration for a UN mission. We expect there to be one, but

52:23 uh... we wanted to uh... it with its composition will depend in part on how far the two parties get in negotiating some of the remaining issues right so war in sudan on the way tap and including stay right where you are it's coming it's coming up and you can do your benefit so on its way we got to just said that mission coming yeah it's what it sounds like to me and mission come of course with a pipeline is going to go through their man The pipeline! So we got to like, we know the mission's gonna be there to protect the peace, uh, the pipe, uh, the peace. This is a UN pipeline mission? I mean, peace mission? It's totally for the pipeline, just like, uh, Kosovo. You know, are we crazy? Nah, probably are. Nah, there's more to it than that. Anyway, uh, Susan Rice is a horrible human being. She scares me.

53:15 She's the one largely responsible, at least it's been revealed in many documents, that between her and Powers, whatever her first name is, I can't remember. Stephanie. Powers, the woman, this cast sun stream, cast sun stream, steam, sun screen's wife. Cast sun screen's wife. You know the no agenda BS filter is doing all that. Thank you. It's sunscreen and I read and it's hard to read all of a sudden you read like the unelected United Nations like what is that in that doc? Oh, it's the BS filter. The thing never ceases to amaze. Cast sunscreen, right. Yeah, well cast sunscreen is right. It has a lot to do with the Libya deal. No kidding. And the infiltration of all kinds of like our chat room.

54:07 Cast sunscreens infiltrating our chat room everybody. Yeah, let's be a little more Vigilant in the chat room and kick those people out. Yeah, anyone who shows up as the real Dvorak kick that guy off Because you know what that is That's right new jingles every day what was that one shill alert yeah, she'll alert Use that in the show more often actually it was brand new we have one from you know they might be Giants Yeah, yeah, they got it. This is from an actual song from them I love these guys Your calls connected through the NSA like ending your rights for the duration of the permanent war

55:04 Those guys are funny. He's got a vamp going too. Okay. Yeah, so Let's see what else we got. Well. I got tons of stuff. Are you kidding me the the world is on fire John? It's on fire. I Have a thing I just said something on your on your clip Let's just a sound effect that you can add to your collection of you know these kind of It's not us. You know it's just a little thing you can use shoot. Oh nice. You know if I do like that one Yeah, I do like it We just need to play that from time to time just as you know as we're talking like they do on Yeah, like we're talking away. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right exactly. Just it's got to keep that going it keeps you awake. Oh, yeah, whoa whoa? They wake up something important happening here

55:50 So let's play with Joe. So Canada's having a big, you know, we lost a couple Canadian listeners over the last few days. Really? Yeah, one tweeted me saying, you suck, I hate your show now. Why? What did we do? You can't tell with Twitter because they don't have enough time to express themselves. Oh, I ran out of characters, sorry. But what do we suck? So I clicked on him and I found he's a Canadian guy and so I said, oh, of course then I immediately banned him. This is a policy John when people say you suck you just block them is that what you do? Yeah, well then no because I don't use Twitter for that kind of thing I use my email So you block them there too. You block everything and everybody. I don't need it. I already know I suck

56:33 so uh... it's redundant so uh... so i checked the guy out he's from canada so i decided to i noticed a c-span on the uh... sometimes on saturday night and uh... they have the canadian house of lords they'll play the national which is the canadian national news i don't understand why somebody on cable or on the dish network or on any of these guys don't have a station that just plays the cbc because the CBC's got some great programming. Great shows, yeah. Well it's because they all make fun of us up there, that's why. Well they make fun of themselves too. Yeah. And probably even more so, but the fact is the National's a pretty good news broadcast. So there was a couple interesting things.

57:11 There's a big you know they're having a big election they're trying to reestablish a government up there yeah and and there's a couple of interesting things I caught that I thought even though it's a little typical Canadian they're a little chatty about this but play these the social media stuff that I picked up on play start with the vote mob surprise rally and there's two buzzwords in here and then actually a trend of what's going on. It all started on Monday One day, when Guelph University students showed up outside a Tory event, they weren't allowed inside with their message directed to all politicians and to their fellow students. The message to young people is to get out there and vote. Like the last event, Today's was organized on Facebook in a couple of days. 285 say they're participating. A meeting place set up and it was off to the rallies.

57:59 The idea of a vote mob or surprise rally is new but seems to be gaining momentum. Okay, vote mob. So we have a vote mob. Right. I haven't heard that before. Have you heard that? No, no it's new. Vote mob, surprise rally and so there's a later in one of the other shows are going on and somebody brings up some very interesting aspects of social media that I thought was actually I thought it meant something and it was And it's the clip social media screwing things up. This is a round table. If you give a big policy speech, if you're a politician and no one covers it because it's deemed to be either too complex or too boring to interest the audience, then it doesn't take very long before you stop giving big complicated policy speeches. And so we are in a vicious kind of cycle right now where the population's appetite for certain things

58:48 is dictating and structuring our political classes behavior and the political classes behavior is driving further cynicism among the population. I in part blame the social media to tell you the truth because I think there was always a danger and it's happening now. The media that covers the politicians, the politicians who are covered and the junkies all get this sense of... Did she say the junkies? She means social media junkies. Oh, all right. The politicians, the politicians who are covered and the junkies all get this sense of engagement from the very instant gratification of Twitter, Facebook, and etc.

59:28 and it's an illusion. It's a bubble versus what is happening on the ground and so while they think there's a lot of engagement because this is happening really quickly, they are talking amongst themselves and I think people are dropping off because of it rather than becoming more engaged because of the social media. I think there's an interesting point that Chantal is making is that the immediacy of social media, the immediacy of media, the acceleration of the debate, one effect of that is it greatly enlarges, at least in our own minds, the significance of incredibly trivial moment-to-moment events. And I think that's what Chantal is saying, I certainly agree. I absolutely agree with this woman, she's completely right. And the only thing she forgot to mention is when we change our Twitter icon to green, we all feel we're participating in something good. Exactly. And it's just a complete circle jerk. She's absolutely right. She's from the French-Canadian side, I think.

1:00:18 I would think yeah. No absolutely and this is rampant this is exactly what the whole NPR Andy Carbon thing is about it's a big circle jerk and it's useless it gives people a drug thinking that you're participating by yelling amongst a crowd of ten and it means nothing. It helps you get it out of your system. True. Which is probably not good. I don't know, I think just getting it out of your head. This is like the crazy old man at home who sits there yelling at the television set thinking that it's accomplishing something. Enough about me. Stop. Of course I do this too. This guy is an idiot.

1:01:02 By the way, this is not a good thing when you live with people you need to like calm down on that for those of you who find yourself in this position You probably just want to go to the Twitters and just say this guy's an idiot for no reason whatsoever Just do it. It'll make you feel better and then your relationship will last longer This is a very dangerous precedent. Sitting there shaking your fist at the television set. Or that panel in a modern society. No, but she makes a very valid point. You know, I saw this. Here you go. So yesterday, disaster struck Gitmo Nation Lowlands. Did you hear about, you must have heard about this. No. No, she didn't. No. Lone Wolf, gunman.

1:01:44 Goes into a shopping center with a machine gun starts shooting Apparently two clips to full clip rounds. I didn't know machine guns were legal in that I'll get to all the good stuff Killing a minimum of five could be more wounding several others for severely wounded so the death count will rise and and and this is completely apparently a 24 year old kid and Who and by the way when you're 24, you're a kid. Okay, you're like a moron Okay, 20 or 24 year old these are the same kids like the moron who wants Doesn't want noodles to tell him how to cook the noodles. All right, and he was a member of a gun club, of course and and and but what happens is because I immediately took to the Twitter's to see you need the of course in there and

1:02:37 Well, I'll tell you why you need the of course in there. So I took to the Twitters immediately to see What people were doing and the and they were doing exactly this they were all venting their frustration Which means absolutely nothing, you know If you really want to change something slaves of Gitmo nation lowlands You got to get out on the street and change something and not be yelling at your TV and not be yelling at your Twitters because that does nothing now Let me say something about what happened because of course this has never happened in the Netherlands. This is like Columbine, this is like America. Why is this happening here? Well since no one has given you an explanation and since none will be given because this is a known pattern I will give you one explanation. I'm not saying it's the explanation but one.

1:03:28 It was time. It was your time to have this type of an event. These are MKUltra slaves and they get turned on and then they and then it's perfectly set up. Of course, you know, we need we might as well grab some gun stuff in there as well. How could he have been a member of a gun club? Didn't they check in? Isn't it? We need psychology, psychological research and everybody. The police state is about to clamp down on you and you will get no explanation. They're not allowed to read the so-called note, the suicide note, the note he left for his mom, the note he left about all the bombs he was going to place everywhere.

1:04:05 It's just one explanation. I'd love to hear another one. But this has happened around the world where we get young people just cool, coolly walking in with submachine guns, machine guns, shooting everybody up for no reason. Give me another reason, I'm happy to believe it, but I think it was your time, false flag. They're bringing it. Now the curtain drops on Gitmo Nation Lowlands. Just one and drop it's been dropping. Yeah, well it probably is false flag every you know There's a lot of these things and you're right that oh, that's why they had to have the gun club of course. Yes part of the script Yes, thank you 24 year old schmuck and by the way his name Tristan hello Hello, is this thing on who was it who was the Columbine shooter was that also? I think that was also a Tristan wasn't it I don't know maybe I don't know remember the Columbine guys I

1:04:59 Let's call Michael Moore. We'll look it up. We can't be just throwing stuff out. By the way, I got the quote of the day from Eric DeShill. Yeah. Which is quote, I updated my Facebook status in protest. Great. It was Tristan and Who's the other guy? Wait, you're telling me that this guy's name is the same so you have a call back, a subconscious call back to Columbine? Sure, sure. It's not a Dutch name I don't think, Tristan. I, it doesn't, it doesn't strike me as Dutch. I'm just saying, I'm just saying. It's one explanation, okay? I'm happy to hear another one. Happy to.

1:05:43 But, uh, no. This is not good. Update it. I'm protesting gun clubs. I'm updating my Facebook status now. Everybody change- That'll show ya! Change your Facebook status to an anti-gun club! Tristan Matthews, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And, you know, hello! This is how that stuff works. This is how that stuff works, man! So it's just one, I'm not saying it's the, and of course it's a tragedy, and you know my mom used to live near there, she could have been shopping there easily. Yeah. Well no she couldn't have because she's not with us anymore. But I'm just saying. It'd be hard for her. I'm just saying. She probably would have gone to total. Tristan is a Celtic.

1:06:29 Right, so it's not not very not very Dutch coincidence. I think not so much in CNBC And of course, what's oil now John? One like the the real the Brent stuff. There's like 110 nobody goes that you went to regular oil, which is about 107 I think still I'll look at it. I'll look at why you just go on and I'll check it out You check that so knew we got some of the sweet stuff. That's like 120 But the I think the the crude I think it's the Brent is like one. I think it's around 110. I

1:07:05 Now, so there's a little morning show, CNBC, you know I gotta watch this stuff from time to time. Basic crude oil is $113. More than you said, $113. I was wrong! Now remember we've been promised $200 oil. Yeah, which is bullcrap. That's never gonna happen. Okay, and gold's not going higher either. I never said that yes, you did you said they said they're gonna manipulate it down They are but not right this minute Okay, right and pigs will fly out of my ass one day one day so that's always a possibility It could happen at any moment, but one day it will take place now Now listen to what he says about this. It's very interesting.

1:07:59 David, in terms of demand destruction, the key here is when you hit 110, when Brent hits over 120, at what point, what's the magic number here where oil is too high? Well, I think we really see it in the gas prices now. People are filling up at 4.25 on the East Coast. Go out West, go to Hawaii, you can see even higher numbers. And I think we're at the point now where, I mean, the speculators have just taken control of this market and it's just out of control. Hey David, it's Joe. I mean, really drill down on that. You've got electronic trading basically driving the price of oil right now. It's above 110. How much do you really believe of the move is attributed to speculation? And is there anything that can be done about it?

1:08:43 Well, Joe, you and I go back a few Gulf Wars ago. And throughout all the Gulf Wars and through all the instances that we were through, when the floor was open, you never saw a spike like this. And basically what's happening, if you go back in time, you really have to think about how electronic trading happened, why, and for the real reasons why it happened with oil. And what's happening now is that with the amount of money that is in this market, the market's too small to handle it. So it's very easy for any fund that needs a position to go one way or another to slam it with the algorithms. And that's what's moving this market right now. I kind of like that.

1:09:21 So it makes sense to me. It's just a whole bunch of electronic trading going on and the market is only a certain size so anyone can influence it now. And guess what? It's probably not going to be in our favor. Well, it will be when it turns around because speculators go both ways. They're not bulls. They'll run it up as high as they can and then when they see the moment where it's opportunity knocking, they'll pull the rug out from under it and speculate their way down where they can make money even twice as fast. It goes down twice as fast as it goes up. Right. And so, we're not even, it's not in our favor or out of our favor, we're just pawns that they have to put up with this bull crap. I'll give you one guarantee.

1:10:07 If it goes down to like 80, which it probably should be more like 50. Let's say it's going down, well the dollar is weak, so let's say 60 or 70. If it goes down to about that price, somehow I don't think the pump is going to go below $4. I mean, I think we've kind of got that covered now. It's like, heh heh. Yeah, I think we'll see $3 301 gas before... The end of the year? I don't know about the end of the year. You can't be so vague man. It's like this is like the pig flying out of my butt. Okay, I'll give it 18 months we'll be back to $3.20. 18 months. As we say in Holland, we done laifed.

1:10:44 What does that mean? Whoever lives then. 18 months? It's not like I'm predicting something about 25 years. May 21st is when we're all gonna die. We have continuing growth. I thought that was 2012. No, man. This is the... God, you should... I walk on... I don't mean... Hey, wait a minute. Why don't we use this as a plea for getting... A donation drive. Yeah, yeah, look at what difference is it? What is your money gonna do? What good is your money gonna do? Yeah. Yeah, so alright, so here's the deal, okay? So we've got hundreds of people now crowding the streets of Los Angeles Mickey went downtown LA She started to get into her passion which I'm so happy about she's she's a great Shopping No

1:11:34 With what? I looked at some rings yesterday. So that's great. She said there were a couple of options. I said no there weren't. Zero options. And anyway, so she went, she's nuts. She likes to photograph architecture and I think she's pretty good at it. In fact, I think she's damn good at it. There's not a lot of people who do it well. So downtown LA is actually quite beautiful. Of course, it's falling apart but it's really it's old it's old-school and it's not fake and this is nice buildings and There's just tons of guys. Well, I said you got to take some pictures of these guys from we they're all walking with sandwich boards You know the end is nigh and it's May 20. Oh, yeah. I get some shots of that. I need those pictures Okay, May 20. I think it's May 21st and that's when this is what they're all saying is May 21st is when the world ends and

1:12:24 Now it's a judgment day actually and it's the... let's look at... let's consult the book of knowledge for a moment to find out exactly what this is about. May 21st is the 141st day of the year in the Gregorian calendar blah blah blah all right where's the death part? Geez Louise, the book of knowledge doesn't do very good. Judgment... Huffington Post. Okay, it's the other book of knowledge. Huffington Post should have the information about the end of the world. Don't you think Ariana would have it? I would think. We'll mark the second coming of Christ or at least that's what some Christian groups believe. I thought it was Judgment Day. I thought that's when we're all supposed to die. Well, I guess not. What is... where we... maybe better to Google it. The book of knowledge may not have this information. The book of knowledge is not up to speed on this. No, it's apparently Judgment Day

1:13:26 The leader of the... blah blah blah blah. Well anyway, everyone's walking around Judgment Day. So but I guess when he, I think we all have to die before he comes or something like that? The rapture. The rapture? Yeah that means all the believers go up to heaven that literally they get pulled up like a from an alien spaceship sucking them straight up. Oh is this when we have to have the the pink, the purple shoes and tracksuits on? And the rest of the people sit around and they have to go through the tribulations or so I began I wrong the tribulations something else but everyone else has to be hanging around and they have to deal with the Antichrist and they had a lot of fistfights and things like that. So then perhaps we should say if we don't all so either we can go two ways either if we don't all die on the 22nd you should be anting up because apparently we helped save the world by enlightening a portion

1:14:22 Or, if you're, well it's a double whammy, or if you just think it's all gonna end, just send us your cash now. I think that would be a good idea. And I want to remind people what we do on this show, because we're going to take a break in a second to talk about it. But I thought a very interesting thing happened this last week or so. I didn't realize that one of the reasons Glenn Beck is being thrown off Fox is because a bunch of presser groups got together, organized by who knows who, to get his advertisers to pull out, because he still has huge ratings. and I so I got this clip here and I wanna play it which is sharp 10 and this is this came on the edge show on MSNBC and ed Schwartz is a just a a real eyes and person as a douche is a total douche hateful person but he had he had the information was on here that I thought was

1:15:13 was interesting people out there listening to this show supporting our show should pay careful attention to it this is one not yet another reason we refuse to deal even deal with the idea of turning our audience into a product and selling it to advertisers play that and of course the economics of all of this never really worked out bunch advertisers fell off bunch of lists got a put together. People didn't want anything to do with Fox or his program when it came to advertising. Joining me now is Reverend Al Sharpton, president of the National Action Network. Reverend, good to have you with us tonight. Good to be with you. What is happening here? Is it the economics? Is it

1:15:48 beyond the point of diminishing returns is this a mission accomplished how do you view Becks departure I think all of the above I think it's a mission accomplished he was there to say the most absurd and outrageous things what they didn't count on is the effective use of some groups in terms of going after his advertisers And there you have it. I'm gonna show my support by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. So so that's exactly it that's why we can't even have advertisers because a you would be the product who are listening and be the show gets stopped it's simple if that's the true reason it's certainly one of the reasons I mean I think the whole thing is more of a theater I think that I don't think he was ever put there to be there forever

1:16:43 But but it if it's not the true reason it is a reason and it's a reason that people are looking at is giving advertisers The feeling that they can do this and I think advertisers do this all the time by the way, of course they do Why do you think they advertise on NPR to influence the programming? look at your email look at your email Mickey Mickey just I afforded you Mickey just emailed a picture this is great these guys got it down so this is cool-looking dude the you went to me look at that Mickey email no it's from me I just forwarded maybe I sent you I think it's a woman it's a woman yeah with it with it with it

1:17:21 She's got the... Mickey, Mickey, Mickey, tweet that, will ya? Tweet that picture, man, it's too funny. This is a picture of a woman carrying a sign, the edge, the end is near. Judgment day 100% biblical May 21st 61 days, and then she's got it. She's listening to an iPod Yeah, I love the hundred percent biblical I Like the hundred percent biblical, but it's the iPod thing that really does it that really does it yeah, it's fantastic No, we're all gonna die so before we do let's blow some cash on hookers and blow oh Well, actually we have bills to pay so we'll probably do that instead. Daniel Hutner, Murphys, California, $166.21, did the math and damn it, Adam's right. Here's $111 for my birthday hat on Friday, another $55 to get me closer to knighthood.

1:29:38 DeVarric also got it. Theater of the mind. Noahjendashow.com there's a link there also Noahjendanation.com slash NA or slash donate. There's a link there and also I think there's still one at channeldevaric.com slash NA. Hey big up to Gitmo Nation. What's Iceland? What is the Gitmo Nation volcano? That's what it is. Glacier, how about glacier? No, the BS filter has it as volcano. So big up to the people of Gitmo Nation Volcano who yesterday had a referendum vote. Now if you'll recall they had the whole country melted down because Icelandbankski

1:30:22 Something like that had lent all this had had the savings accounts for citizens of Gitmo Nation East the United Kingdom and Gitmo Gitmo Nation lowlands which of course was a total scam and People had these internet savings accounts with really high interest Yeah, like you know hello if it's too good to be true. It sounds too good to be true it probably is so the bank fell apart and And then what the international bankers said is, well, listen slaves, they're in Iceland, you're going to have to pay it back. You'll just have to have austerity measures and all kinds of, you'll have to pay it back. And they went, we don't think so.

1:31:00 And so then, you know, they brought in some new shills of the government and everyone's too afraid to sign off on it because they know if anyone in government would say, all right, let the human resources work for 30 years to pay it back, they will get killed. So they were too chicken shit to do it. Excuse the language. So they held a referendum and big ups to the human resources there. They all they voted no. Like, no, we're not going to pay that back. Screw you. And now, of course, everyone's freaking out. So, because the governments of the Netherlands and the United Kingdom already paid back the money to the people who invested. Which I don't understand. Yeah, this is like getting, you know, to me this is like those scams that took place some years back during the modem era where you would call up a website, because that's the way you did it directly, and it would be a scam and it would redirect a call to Romania which is a per minute call

1:31:57 of a hundred dollars a minute. Yeah, we're caught and you get a huge phone bill. You get a huge bill for thirty thousand dollars and then the phone company says, hey there's nothing we can do about it, international tariffs, it's an agreement, we can't do anything about it. So you basically, they're all part and parcel of a scam to take your money and it's like, you know, when it's bull crap. Yes, the whole thing was illegal. It's unconscionable that they would still try to... Well, let's see if we can jerk them around some more. I'm glad they did that. Right. Well, of course... Just say no. You will recall that when this thing first came down, what was the first thing that Gitmo Nation East, Gordon Brown at the time, what did he say? You remember? As I recall, he said they were terrorists.

1:32:42 Don't you remember that? He called them... Yeah, yeah, he said they're terrorists and therefore they have to be locked out of everything. You can't do trade with them. I'm invoking the terrorism law. That's the first thing he did. He called Iceland the terrorist state. That was his way of kicking their ass temporarily. This is the problem that we have with this whole terrorism crap. Terrorism. It's terrorism. Squirrel! Terrorism. yeah so it could just by the way Eric DeShill suggests that I think this is a good name which would be Gitmo Nation Puffin. Puffin? Yeah but if you go to Iceland I don't know if you ever been there but all they eat is puffin they have puffin burgers and they have roast puffin and then there's puffin steaks and all right let's have a referendum shall we

1:33:31 Fried puffin what is puffin puffin is the cutest look it up look it up in the book of knowledge Puffin is the cutest bird in the world, but it's like it's like the pigeon of ice I'm not gonna eat a puffin. It doesn't sound beautiful. It's a beautiful bird They grab them and they choke them they choke them and then they rip it They choke the puffin and then they they they grind it in the meat. Hey, these guys are terrorists Wait a minute. We can't you just like kill the puffin humanely you have to choke him. Well, I don't know that Hey John, hey John. Hey John after the show. I'm gonna go choke the puffin Go choke the puffin on your own time Get more nation choke the puffin change the BS filter. We have a new name. All right, but of course

1:34:22 This will be very interesting to see what happens because it's like now we have Jan Kees de Jager who was the Minister of Finance in the Netherlands who I know who used to be the Secretary of Finance. The guy is a Microsoft IT guy. He's a total douche and he's like one of these typical, isn't it worse? He's an IT sales guy and he's now the Minister of Finance. He's been totally assimilated. Oh, I'll do whatever I have to. You know these you know these guys is I did like who sell for Oracle or something you know yeah, they're good sales guys Yeah, right, so he's a little himself into the government. Yeah, exactly we're gonna have to go do something about that I don't know what we're gonna do so meanwhile of course Is that the way he talks totally? We gotta go figure some more Keep on Asian Brussels sprouts now known for a number of things one of their many accomplishments in Belgium

1:35:17 is they now hold the Guinness World Record for longest period of time without a government. Which is just great! And these guys should be celebrating. Has it made a difference? Well, it's about to make a difference according to the IMF. Oh, the IMF is cracking down. IMF is cracking down. Here's a report. The country that holds the world record for not having a government, Belgium, has just received a fresh warning from the International Monetary Fund. In a newly released report, the IMF warns that the 10-month post-election stalemate threatens Belgium's economy because it hampers policymaking. Belgium has a huge sovereign debt, 94% of the country's GDP. The IMF says... I know, I was like, really? What? 94%? Well, they make nothing in Brussels.

1:36:05 But french fries yeah, they make nothing so we're about to hear from this really really cute girl And she sounds like Doug. No. No this is this isn't her I This is the report now, we're hearing a really cute girl. The interim government cannot take sufficient measures to tackle the problem because it has limited powers. Local experts agree this is a problem. And if we don't have a government right now, we also face the risk of being downgraded by Sanders and Poll that have said in December that if we don't have a government by the June, we won't, they will cut down our waiting from AA plus to AA.

1:36:49 In case you don't understand it. Standards and poors? Yeah, so the irony is she has like double C's and she's talking about double A and I was just like, ah, the whole thing was just meant to entice me, I'm sure. Oh yeah, you don't, yeah, that's all done on purpose. She's really, really cute and she goes from AA plus to double A and I'm looking at her C's and I'm like, ah. Yeah, you would. So yeah, so standards and poors, which is a commercial ratings agency, is gonna screw them. Yeah, well, so? No, I'm just saying. It sounds like they're already screwed if they have that kind of debt ratio. Yeah, that's pretty bad. Bad? It's unbelievable. It's up there with bad. It's up there with pretty damn bad. So I have a thing for the No Agenda movie club, whatever it is. There's a film that, or it's actually a documentary, it's actually quite interesting, called Bigger, Faster, Stronger.

1:37:48 which is a movie that documents the use of steroids by athletes and also by the public in general in the United States and the fact that it was made illegal by George H.W. Bush and it never was before and apparently this is not as harmful as they'd like you to believe and apparently every athlete in the world is on it. But I was watching this thing and there was a clip that I pulled from it Which is that if you want drugs clip, which I just thought had the punchline. This is like a clip about this guy who's doing the documentary. But it has a punchline that I just thought was hilarious. I was always against steroids and when I found out that all my heroes used them, I'd like to say it didn't bother me, but it really did. I can't imagine how my mom would feel if she found out that both of my brothers are on steroids right now.

1:38:36 My older brother started using steroids when he went to play Division 1 football at the University of Cincinnati. When I got to Cincinnati, I mean, the practices were so grueling. I mean, much more than what I expected. Coaches would say, you gotta get bigger, you gotta get stronger, you gotta get faster. Was it intimidating? Oh, man, no different than I thought it was gonna be. He called me from Cincinnati and asked me for money for steroids. And I said, what do you need that for? He says, because I can't compete here. So I'm like, Well, I don't know what that is. It sounds like drugs. He goes, it is drugs. And I say, well, I'm not going to send you money for drugs. If you want drugs, go get a job. So anyway, I just think that should be a motto. If you want drugs, go get a job. Yeah, so but I was, this whole thing is kind of interesting, but it reminds me of when I used to be a factory worker during my college days. And I realize at this point, and I think this is true, even though I believe the two of us are clean and sober to say the least,

1:39:27 generally. And, but there, well I was working this international harvester for a while and I worked one whole summer and I was working, I could never keep up with the demands of this simple job of, there was a sub-assembly that I was responsible for making. and I had to make this thing. As in submarine or a? No, a sub-assembly. This was part of the brake system and it was like a little, there was a device that had a couple of hoses on it and they had to put a thing here and a thing there. You had to drill out this, you had to put a cap on it. It's about eight, nine step process and I had to make these things all day. That's the point at which I learned that if you want to work in factories in the United States and I always advise this to people or factories anywhere, learn to become either a receiving clerk

1:40:12 or an inspector. And the inspector is the best job there is and it doesn't take much and it's just a good job anyway. So I'm doing this thing. Were you high? No, I wasn't high. Turns out that later it turns out there was a big drug bust in both the General Motors plant and also at the International Harvester place where these guys were strung out on amphetamines that's the only and because I was never I could never keep up with it with the quota the guy was always being trained away behind you're thousands of units you're not done yeah that's why you gotta take the cokes so these guys were all it was manphetamines beans and so these guys what did you call them beans beans beans man Benny's so they used apparently these guys are down in these things all day they were just completely wasted on drugs and they could get that they could get

1:41:01 their production numbers up. And I think that this is, and if we look at it, they always, the United States is laced with cocaine and all kinds of other performance enhancing drugs because there's so many demands on the workers. That's why our productivity is so high. But at the same time, let's face reality about this stuff. If this is the way it is, legalize drugs for God's sake. All right. Yeah. Done. Right. Cool. I should try some of that. Why? I've never done coke in my life, ever. Yeah, I would avoid it. Is it with your personality? Might be funny. I haven't done E, I haven't done coke. I weed, that's the only thing I've ever done. I think in college I snorted a diet pill.

1:41:45 You were so strung out on weed for so long that if I were you I would stay away from everything. Wait a minute, you saw me on weed, I wasn't like strung out, that's not a good characterization. I function perfectly fine. No, I wouldn't say strung out insofar as that you were wasted. You were fine, you were noticeably normal on weed. I didn't, like I told somebody recently, I said When he stopped using weed, I couldn't tell. Who were you talking to about my situation? My wife. Oh, okay. That's cool. I couldn't tell he changed. It looks like the same guy to me. So you were obviously... I don't know, I guess the word strung out's the wrong one, but you were apparently so into it that it was part of your life and it really didn't change your personality much, but you couldn't get off of it that easy. If you brush past me on the street, you get a contact high. You would. You know, I gotta tell this story. We used to walk around San Francisco discussing things when he was working out. With me trailing behind like a Muslim housewife. No, when we got to, I would always look behind him and there was two or three dopers going like...

1:42:42 Really real hard. They're always following him. No, no. I always say get out of here. I always had to chase him. There's always this group. I always had to chase him away. We want to scrape his hair man. All right enough of that. Hey, first interview is now out with Sweet Mickey Martelli. Yeah, Sweet Mickey Martelli. He is the new... Still alive, that's a plus. Well, you know what? I'm going to revise my statement. About sweet Mickey Martelli. What was your statement? Well, then you know, it's just another shill. Yeah, he's just a dumb guy is my he's not my statement So I think the guy actually has not smart enough to be a shill. Is that what you're saying? He's not And I'm listening to you. Let me decide here. Okay. Well now I mean I think as hard as in the right place and So first of all, there's two bits. I want to play here

1:43:38 This is from I think a Canadian interview and which is completely chopped up. You know the woman's asking questions and then it's like snip and then you hear his room noise. It wasn't it's edited. The questions are done later probably. I don't know. But the first thing is about the consultants that he used, which of course we know actually they were Spanish consultants. I didn't know this. These election consultants who also ran the McCain campaign for Senator McCain. Not successfully, I might add, but these are professionals and their headquarters is in Gitmo Nation Castanets, which I find rather peculiar.

1:44:19 I haven't delved into them very far. But anyway, so the interviewer asked the question about how he came up with, you know, why did he decide to go with consultants? Duh! His answer is rather surprising. I want to ask you about your history as an... There was the clue that's Canadian. I want to ask you about... ...entertainer and how you've moved on to the political stage. You hired an international consultancy, the same one that helped elect Felipe Calderon in Mexico and that worked on John McCain's... No, right. Calderon, isn't he the drug lord? No, he's the head of Mexico. No, you're thinking of the Calderon drug cartel out of Colombia. I'm sorry, I'm not related. Alright, so let's get back to the question and answer. 2008 presidential campaign. Why did you feel you had to do that? Well, to be honest with you, I planned on doing, on campaigning on my own.

1:45:17 It's a group of friends. They felt that it would be good for them to offer this to the campaign and they did. My buddy said, hey, check these guys out. I can just see this guy is like smoking a joint. I'm gonna run man, I'm gonna do it. Hey, yeah, great. Hey Mickey, sweet Mickey dude. Let me introduce you to some cool dudes. Oh, all right man, that's good. And I really appreciate their donation. But myself, I believe that we would have

1:45:53 still done good, although I'm so much satisfied and so happy that I was able to use the experience of that firm to the point where they're still advising me today. But somehow, Yeah, I never felt the need I was probably immature then or not a politician enough to understand that I needed them But as they came along I I greatly appreciated their work So do you already feel kind of where this is going with this guy? He's like he's dumb He's like oh, you know I thought I could do well. You know I guess it's a good idea. Yeah, these guys helped me Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. He's kind of like that dumb guy who is in

1:46:36 South Carolina wherever it was he ran and opposed in some election. Oh, yeah Kind of a sweet, but dumb guy exactly and he's just like I thought you know the people don't I thought they really love me Didn't they elect me no dude that was fraud your votes got bought dude. Please don't he's like totally believe in it now Here's the tip-off And I'm listening, I had to play it back four times. I had to research like ten websites to make sure that the guy actually, he's got it all wrong. And I'll stop it at the point where he does this. He doesn't even know the name of the organization that is withholding the money. So this is about housing for the slaves, who by the way are going to be turned into slaves to

1:47:24 Besides the tourism part which is John's favorite. They're going to have to make mangoes now grow mangoes to export mangoes and They're you know, they're creating jobs. I read all the documents by the way, this this Haiti hack job They're creating 18,000 jobs in the garment industry Yeah, exactly and and in addition to that there are There's all kinds of help groups for young women 15 to 24 to help them get on their feet and not be hookers but be in the... Call girls. Yeah, exactly. We're gonna upgrade you. This is what we're all about. Clinton leading the charge. So, and I listen, so this is about housing for 5,000, for tents, to get people out of tents and into houses and it's unbelievable. Listen to this.

1:48:14 Right now I just finished a meeting with a land owner. He has about 5,000 acres of land and is willing to partner with the state. Now it's a matter of finding the finance, financing this project. Now okay, so he has a guy who wants to partner with the state, of course we don't know who that is, Bill Clinton. and who's got like 5,000 acres and well where are we gonna get the money? Because you know we... Who has the money John? Where's all the money? Remember all that money? Yeah the money people were texting. Well let's go find out. Mickey where are you gonna get the money from? The Haitians need a dissent.

1:48:54 Life, it's imperative that we take them out of the tent. So we will either through the CIRH, which is the International Commission for the Reconstruction of Haiti. Okay, so this is where I'm like, CIRH? I'm like, what? What he's saying is CIRH, which is actually the domain name for the IHRC. And IHRC is not the International Haiti Recovery Commission. It's the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission. Who of course is the president of that organization is John. What? Bill Clinton. No. Yes. So not only does this Martelly not know the actual name of the organization that has stolen the money or doesn't even have it but is supposed to be the funnel

1:49:53 which is the IHRC, the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission. He's got the initials wrong and he even thinks it stands for International Haiti Recovery Commission. It does not. It stands for Interim Haiti Recovery Commission. Which is the International Commission for the Reconstruction of Haiti. It's not even reconstruction, it's recovery. Recovery of what? Of Clinton's crap, recovering land that he thinks he owns, Martelly. We will identify funds or again in the new budget for the next year fiscal year we will make sure that we Put money in this budget for the people because we have to know how nice really isn't that what all the money is meant for?

1:50:42 I think we got a dummy. The way they're living right now under the tents is unacceptable as much as the education system that needs to be rebuilt. And here it comes. And in case of, in case the CEO Ashwood wouldn't allow us to get funds for that, we have also identified other places where we can generate money. So, to summarize, in case Bill Clinton decides not to give money for the people to have houses instead of tents, which it sounds like Martelly has no control over, because, you know, hey, it might not happen, you know, in case they don't allow it, you know, my overlords, we have other places we can get the money. You know, like hookers and blow. It's like, it's so obvious.

1:51:35 The guy, oh my god, sorry Haiti. Oh and this is something unexpected from the Haitis. It's not unexpected, it's just not reported. And you look at all the, if you look at, and it is actually, I have to give them that, the website is CIRH.ht Maybe everything's backwards because it's supposed to be French, but it's not the International Haiti Reconstruction Commission. It's the interim Haiti Recovery Commission and recovery I guess the only thing they're recovering is just whatever they think belonged to them in the first place And you just go look at the recovery plan. It's like 11 million dollars here

1:52:15 Where's all the billions? Where did the billions go? All the people that texted $10 on their phone. The Red Cross has the majority of it. By the way, Japan's Red Cross, which has collected over a billion dollars in the first three weeks because of the earthquake and the tsunami, says we have not yet distributed any of the funds. Any? Wait a minute, why? Well, Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano has been urging that this take place. Let me just see. Japan's Red Cross collected more than 1 billion dollars. Meanwhile the operator... No explanation. Shut up! Why are you asking questions? Just shut up. We just hadn't... No donations are dispersed through local governments that rely on independent commit... They have no answer. No one's asking the question apparently. But the statement is Japan's... A five-year-old can say why? Yeah, well...

1:53:16 It's the media hasn't got any five hands Red Cross has collected more than 1 billion by the way everyone who bought the album on iTunes that went to the Red Cross That's your money. How do you feel now stupid idiot? You fell for it again more than 1 billion dollars in the first three weeks after the massive earthquake and tsunami But has yet to distribute any funds directly to victims. Well, no, of course not. It's got to go to corporations When will we finally understand this? Never. Never? And why don't any of these Hollywood elites just say I'm not participating in the Red Cross because they steal the money. They don't think for themselves. The funny thing is I was watching this thing about it was on one of the

1:53:59 I think it was Entertainment Tonight or something, I didn't take any clips but for good reason. But there was about, what's her name, the actress who's getting married, it's a big deal. Oh, Reese Witherspoon. Reese Witherspoon. Why do I even know this? Yes, there you go, now you're right in. So they have a clip of her when she's 15 on some talk show and she's giggling, she says, I don't know, I'm only 15, they just tell me what to do and I do it. Whatever they tell me to do, I do it. God, I don't know anything anyway, I'm only 15. And she goes on like that. I'm thinking this is the way all these actors are. They don't know what they're doing, they're told what to do. In the case of George Clooney and all this Sudan and the rest of it, you never see him by himself. He's always got some guy with him. The whole thing is just ridiculous theater. Handler.

1:54:46 Yeah, he's got a handler always. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, that's that's bad. So anyway, I've got a couple of things I want to get to before we we because we didn't talk about Libya at all. I got I got some Libya stuff. Well, I got a couple interesting things because I have two clips and I want you because I have a question for you. This will be an ask Adam. Is that up first or not? No, no. Up first is is the NATO press conference with this foppish guy who is the I saw this yeah He's a operation unified protector deputy commander. Yes, I mean my rear Admiral And the whole I love that press conference it starts off with this woman on the speakerphone Like half an hour saying how awesome it all is It's taking place in Naples, but let's play a clip here. Oh

1:55:41 I would like to know if it's possible to confirm how many proven casualties, civilian casualties, there have been due to NATO attacks that you can be sure and you can confirm? And what is NATO doing to improve communication and coordination with the rebel forces? Thank you. I'm going to get a reputation for this because I'm going to take the second question first. Oh, the boys at the club won't believe me, I keep taking the second question first! Someone's going to catch up with me quite soon and then start asking the questions round the wrong way. And then I said, soon they're going to catch up to me and I'll start taking the questions first! Bertie, Bertie, pause another one! Your second question was, what are we doing to improve the communications with the rebel forces?

1:56:45 I have to be frank and say it is not for us trying to protect civilians of whatever persuasion to improve communications. The homosexual persuasion. With those rebel forces. I can see what your point is of how do you avoid knocking out TNC tanks that we hadn't previously seen in that respect. But I think I'm secure in that in saying it's not for us to improve the communications. What we have to do is we have to see very clearly where civilians or civilian population areas are being attacked and then make sure that we can either take action or if we can't take action it's because we might cause collateral damage in that respect. So that's my answer to that question I think of we need to make sure where there is action we know where it is

1:57:30 that we can protect the civilians. And then I said, nothing! I just talked to Duke Abelie Gook about tanks and they bought it. The second half of the first question which he took second is actually worse. Your first question on civilian casualties, I think the best answer to that in trying to be very precise is to ask NATO HQ to come back up with an answer to that and follow up that because there is a danger that any answer I give now could be out of date by the time I gave it. What? Hold on a second, now here's what he said. I can't give you an answer because there's gonna be a lot more dead people in five minutes. What is he talking about? How many people are they killing? They must be killing people left and right for him to give that answer. Right? Let's listen to it again. That was pretty damn good, John. Hold on a second. Because there is a danger that any answer I give now

1:58:24 could be out of date by the time I gave it. That's not even five minutes, it's like five seconds. Yeah. Wow. That's astonishing. What he's saying is that we're killing people left and right. That's what the subtext is. Yeah, you know the people in Libya apparently now painting their houses, the roof of their houses pink. So don't throw the bomb here, which of course immediately turns into a target. They must be hiding their human shields this one's crop all up. They're using people as human shields in that respect So what I'd like to do is hand over back to NATO or not pan the question back to NATO HQ But to say that's something we'll come back to you on that. Thank you

1:59:06 And then I told him we're killing lots of people and I told him I'll get back to them later. There's another thing to note, there was no reason for him to reverse order the answer to that question. There was no connection between the two. Well I guess there was, because by taking the second question first and the first question second, in that time that he answered the second question first, he could kill more people. So he was on the mission. I need to kill some more people. So I'm listening to this thing, it goes on and on and there's apparently in two places and one of them is coming over the phone or something. There's a woman in the other area and she decides to chime in on something. Oh, I missed that one. I tuned out after the whole Bertie thing. Well anyway, so this woman chimes in about... Now I'm gonna add, this is an Ask Adam. Play the clip. Play it now. You got one that's cued up. Ask Adam.

1:59:57 Ask Adam. Ask Adam. Ask Adam. Ask Adam. Ask Adam. Make it stop! That's terrible. That's a D. Too long. You gotta make... People doing these things, you gotta make them snappy. Okay. Alright. So what's the clip? Who is Baroness Ashton? Do I play the clip or answer the question? Well, play the clip then answer the question, because I'd like to know. I can answer the question. Why is she involved in the war in Libya? Well, Baroness Ashton is of course a member of the British elite. That's why she's a Baroness. She's a total douche bucket.

2:00:40 And she is the United States of Europe, well it's actually, the technical name eludes me but it's something like Ambassador to the World at Large, anything that is not on the moon bases. But really she's like the foreign minister and she's a total nincompoop. And now we'll play the clip. In terms of the humanitarian mission, as you know, NATO has completed its plans for a humanitarian mission and stands ready if requested to put that mission in place. At the moment we are making sure, as the Rear Admiral said,

2:01:16 that we are de-conflicting, as the term goes here, making sure that there is no conflict, no confusion between our operations to enforce the arms embargo and humanitarian operations ongoing for the people of Libya. And also in terms of our regular contact with the European Union that is ongoing, that is clear, that is transparent. I can tell you that the Secretary General will be meeting the European Union High Representative Baroness Cathy Ashton next Monday and we have also invited Baroness Ashton to the NATO Foreign Ministers Meeting next week in Berlin to discuss

2:02:01 situation in Libya. Yeah, the high priestess. What did they call her? They said she was high. Well, she is high. Now she's a total douche bucket. This is the... Nigel Farage rags about her all the time. Baroness Ashton. Yeah, she has a staff of like 50. She makes half a million euros a year. It's unelected, just appointed. She's a horrible, horrible woman. And she's ugly. And the portions are so small! Exactly. No, this is, you know, it's crazy. It's just crazy. But you gotta laugh about it. You know, we've got Haiku Herman, you know, walking around saying, yes, it is all our, we are good. We have made it all happen. I'm watching this carnival.

2:02:55 circus I guess is a better word. And I'm wondering about, you know, I wrote down this note, are we actually, maybe we don't know this, but the United States is secretly, what we're really up to here, is secretly re-militarizing Europe so they can kill each other again? Oh, I hope so. So they can kill each other again and we, you know, we're gonna get a few dead but we're gonna reap the rewards in the lolly hole. It's really interesting you say that because if you look at the fractal of it all You know, look at who's all ganging up together. And look at who's opposing stuff. You know, Germany is kind of like opposing the French. And we got Italy with like a Mussolini guy in there. It is kind of a fractal of another World War thing. World War I and World War II. Yeah.

2:03:45 Then we'll divvy it all up again. We'll have another Paris 1919. I'll have another divvying up of the world and California will be the Middle East or something. I don't know what it's gonna. It's it's it's nutty. It's not good Meanwhile, let's just stick with Libya for a second. So I was flabbergasted literally flabbergasted by what crossed my television set earlier this week and I watched the Wolf Blitzers during the day and with the situation wrong. So Wolf Blitzer is just a pretty gray-haired fox, isn't he? Isn't that pretty, man?

2:04:21 And he, so you know they have, even though there's this huge war and everything, they've got Nick Robertson in Tripoli. Yeah, they just open communication all the time. They got, I'm just standing here. Nick Robertson by the way who used to be a satellite engineer. That's how he got started. Did you know that? No. Yeah, he got started as a satellite engineer during the first Gulf War working with Peter Arnett. He was probably the guy that set up some of those fake satellite things. He seems like it would be. For all I know, Nick Robertson is in the Bahamas. They never have an establishing shot. It's always just like with some like palm pine trees actually in the background. Have you noticed this?

2:05:02 No, but I'm gonna start looking and then sometimes you'd be like oh well We're speaking we just hear some gunfire you hear like nothing and then Wolf will always go yeah Turn up the microphone so we can hear the gunfire and like well. It's really heavy artillery fire You don't hear nothing so I am a man just bite shitty mics there at CNN anyway That's nothing to do with this clip so he has another like a guy on who's in Libya, and this is former congressman What's his name here? Kurt Weldon and I forgot to mention this on the last show, but Kurt Weldon went over to Libya He's like I'm gonna go over there. I'm gonna go fix everything like what so all of a sudden the former congressman

2:05:50 just decides to hop on over to Libya, which by the way is really easy to do apparently. John, you and I could go vacation there I think. Yeah, you want to go? I'd love to. Everyone seems to be just walking in and out, you know, in and out of the press compound, no problem whatsoever. You know, I'd love to see it. And he says the most astonishing things and Wolf Blitzer's actually questioning him. And it just blew me away listening to this. When was the last time you spoke with someone from the Obama administration about your mission? Well, I don't want to get into the details of what I did before I came, but... Right there, I'm like, my head whips around. CIA! My head whips around, like, what? I don't want to get into the de- And this is video, it sounds like audio, but it's video. ...is to say, as you've seen acknowledged in the press, I did reach out in an ongoing way with friends who have ties to both the State Department

2:06:42 and the White House and I did... CIA, yes? ...interact with friends in the Congress from both parties. Friends! I did not seek any endorsement for this trip. In fact, the first letter I received to invite me here was from the Deputy Foreign Minister and I said no, I'm not going to accept that. I said if I get a letter inviting me as a private citizen by someone like Bashir Saleh, then I would consider coming. I received that letter in both English Alright, so at this point I'm like, wait a minute. Why is he there?

2:07:32 Yeah, that's the first question I'd ask. Yeah, I'd say, what are you doing there? Is he there for the baths? The mud bath? Or is he there for the healthy waters? Is he there for some enema? I support President Obama in this effort. I support Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. And O'Biden. I think they are taking the right course. Hillary's statements yesterday. And notice that! Hillary's statements. What? You know, first he's talking about Secretary of State, then it's like, you know, hey Hillary, what Hillary said the other day. Like, that was a slip.

2:08:10 that is a big slip to say uh... hillary you know whatever hillary someone like bush or sala then i would consider coming i received that letter in both english and arabic in fact i've made available up to your network and that's why i'm here uh... i plan to provide that information when i get back as they being appropriate if they don't want my information fine i'm not here to make policy i'm not here uh... to disdain from the president's agenda i support President Obama in this effort. I support Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. I think they are taking the right course. Hillary's statements yesterday about what needs to be done here by Colonel Qaddafi, I support 100%.

2:08:52 I just want to clarify your specific role because some questions have come up about if you're involved in any business deals, have been involved in business deals with Libya over the years. You say you've had no financial relationship with Libya in any of your capacity since leaving the Congress. Is that right? Absolutely. I have not made one dime or I should say one dinar from Libya. I'm doing this because I know that no one's paying me as I did for 20 years as the vice chairman of the Armed Services Committee. Wired Magazine is has reported that your company defel defense solutions, a company you work for, did it one time here starts to unravel. I'm like, this is interesting. OK, defense solution. So Wolf was actually like he's like, but he's quoting Wired like deep into like deep journalism. Yes, the best they can do. Point proposed selling arms to Libya under Qaddafi. Is that right?

2:09:55 No, first of all I have no ties to Defense Solutions. I did some consulting work with that company as did General Barry McCaffrey and a couple of retired ambassadors. That company has not been in existence for Wired Magazine ought to become up to date because it's been basically non-existent for I think three or four years. did some brief consulting for them never did I ever offer to sell any weapons to Libya because as you know our State Department requirements have never allowed arms to be sold to this country unlike the Brits and perhaps some of the other European countries we have a mandate that that's not been permitted. Alright, so at this point I'm like alright, whatever. But then it takes another interesting turn. And just to be precise, you never encouraged, you never worked to lift that embargo on selling arms to Libya?

2:10:43 No, no. I've worked to try to normalize relations. I put together a comprehensive series of initiatives that could bring our people together in health care, in education, in housing, in the environment, in energy. I put together ideas to create a relationship between the Jama Horea and the Congress as I've done in nine other countries. This guy must be a saint, he's just there to go make it all good and get housing and education for children. No, thank God Wolf starts to ask again. I'm proud of what I've done and I'm sad that our efforts haven't paid off and now we're in the midst of another war that's cost the American taxpayers almost

2:11:21 Almost a billion dollars money. We don't have and who's paying for your current trip now remember like no one paying for it Didn't he just say that no one's paying for it. No one's paying I'm here my own my own free goodwill together with your delegation to Libya now. Yeah, it's the delegation is three people I brought over an attorney friend of mine from Houston because there are some things are working on that I will not discuss tonight, but He's working on some things that I'm not going to discuss. Tomorrow you can talk to your own people about that, your station, your network's been in the lead on that. The only thing that was covered was my airfare over here. And that's it. I'm not asking for any money. That's not why I'm here. Who paid for the airfare? The airfare was paid for by the team of Steve Payne and Brian Ettinger. There we go. Steve Payne and Brian Ettinger. Finally. Takes him four minutes, but Wolf gets out of him.

2:12:15 These guys are total oil weapons consultants. worldwide strategic partners who have some amazing little brochures out there hanging out with George Bush, you know, at his ranch and shooting skeet with Dick Cheney. It's like the jackals are in, the jackals are already in and they're being protected on all sides. So it's over. We're already in... Is this a shock to any of us? No, but the fact that Wolf Blitzer actually uncovered... Actually got it out of somebody, that he named a name, but then there did no follow-up whatsoever. Nothing. There's another 30 seconds. Oh, those two guys? Oh, okay, great, bye. Yeah, and I went to Korea with him. You know, it's like the whole thing... And this is a former congressman. This is the problem.

2:13:11 This is the entire problem. They're all elitist pricks, every single one of them. And what they need is... a shoe! That's what they need. Anyway, I just thought it was funny. Yeah, and of course Wolf says nothing. Nothing. Idiot. Alright. And what else do we have? Yeah, the... That Nick Robertson thing, I delved into that, but that was kind of dumb. You know, there's a whole false flag rape victim. Which reminded me so much of that woman who talked about the, remember in Iraq? The Kuwait woman that was from Hilton and Nolton that talked before Congress about the mess that was going on. Yeah, with the premature babies in the incubators.

2:13:55 Yeah, I don't remember that part. No, she was talking about the Iraqis, the soldiers coming in and tipping over the incubators with the babies in them. There's one push it over, dead baby. Yeah, and so this woman who was allegedly raped, Nick Robertson interviews her and she's like, yeah, you know, it's like I got tied up and beaten and raped and then you can't see it anymore but as soon as I upload the videos to YouTube, I'll get them to you. Literally. This is like, what? Yeah, it's just the whole thing is crazy. And then Dana Perino. Remember her? Yeah, well she's on Fox all the time. She's actually... She's hot. She's very pretty but then when you see her seated with a bunch of other people she's apparently like four foot one and I think she's got a really big butt.

2:14:45 Oh really? I'm just saying I never seen her standing but I mean from the looks of it there was some presentation recently and there was a whole slew of people and there's like person person person person midget person person person person and I said who's the midget? And I look and look and it's Dana Perino. Remember she had a black eye after George Bush beat her up for saying something wrong? No I don't remember that. She had a black eye. She probably walked into a doorknob. So she's on with Sean Hannity.com and uh... she has to get who she's with which is the most bizarre thing about his time interested in cutting spending here in washington dc and joining our reaction the fox business network the host of our name company steward barney and former white house press secretary fox's contributor gain a pre-number we say about uh... mister marty's time nothing it's not only that's not what you said it has an interesting and a lot of that not that anything's on the other the white let's compare

2:15:42 It looks like an... Did you ever work for the Al Jazeera networks? He's wearing a tie that has Al Jazeera logos on it. And I'm like, yeah of course, this is total subliminal stuff. But if you really paid attention, you'd see a lot of pins and stuff. You know, symbolism is big with the elites. And I bet you... And literally, the guy has a tie that looks like the Al Jazeera logo. And she called him on it. But she wasn't supposed to because like, hey, Dana, X-Nay on the Jazeera emblemay. Alright, we all know we're trying to promote that She was when she was the press secretary. She did she would they you know, they rolled out to head and you know Generally some men and then they bring out this pretty girl. She's very pretty as no question about it pretty and they put her on and she and I think she's the one who said didn't know anything about the Vietnam War that it existed It was something really dumb that she did during that era that they said gave her crap about or that there was a civil war in the United States. She just didn't know any history and

2:16:42 But she's actually become fairly decent as a commentator on Fox. But she's tiny and has a big butt. I don't know about the butt, I'm just guessing from the looks of when I saw this one thing there was person, person, person, person, person, midget, person, person, person. It looked like the midget had a big butt. That's all I can say. Susan Rice has a big butt too. Well, you know, that's the Hillary. Yeah, she's got those straight pant legs underneath the red jacket. It's like a uniform. It's like a coat. Yeah, I know. It's like a... it's horrible looking. It's like Napolitano has this kind of outfit. Yeah, it's like, don't do that. You know what? We could not only advise Russia today.

2:17:22 we could advise all of these war mongering women to do a much better job because they just have presenting themselves there just not there are presentable yeah big bud me there goes there and there goes there goes the female audience yeah well we're those guys are a couple of sexist pricks no I'll tell you something I'll tell you something we actually love women we appreciate women as total equals and peers But when you get these women, and by the way we call out men just the same. You know, didn't I just talk about some ugly old shrumpled up dude just today? We talk about it all the time. It's just you get called out on the women thing. Right. Well, generally speaking people who do these kinds of news analysis shows don't resort to personal attacks on people's appearance. Yeah, but it's fun. We just do it because I think that is needed. Yeah, it is needed. Thank you. It is needed.

2:18:19 I think a lot of people say that they say oh my god this woman looks like look she looks like crap. Well let's let me put it to you a different way. We say it we should be saying it. Politics is show business for ugly people. We are oh so critical critical about Kim Kardashian's butt and we talk about that all the time shamelessly by the way. We make fun of anyone who's on crack or drugs and get some mugshot taken. We love it. We pass it around to each other. So I think you're right. I think it's fair game for the show business, for ugly people politics, for them to be called out on their appearance as well. They want to be in it. They all get high on it. They're all horny for camera time. They all love it. They all get their hair done. Look at Hillary. She goes to a press conference in France just to get her hair done. That would be my theory.

2:19:08 Alright time for the end of show clip now. We have a conflict here. What is your what is your? I have a couple I wanted to discuss a little bit about the Donald Trump and the fact that he's an interesting red herring and I have two clips from Trump and one including most of the crap that he said on the today show yeah, which is hilarious as far as I'm concerned because he's essentially bringing out a topics he's talking about. By the way, the birth certificate thing, he keeps bringing it up and there's a new theory going around that you don't hear too much about in the mainstream media but as soon as it came up I said oh that's an interesting theory. which is that he has a certificate of live birth but he won't bring out his real birth certificate and Trump doesn't even mention this but there's apparently the movement about, oh show me the birth certificate, show me the birth certificate, show me the birth certificate is based on the fact that yes he has one but in there there's a section that says religion Muslim. So that would be a bad thing so he doesn't want to show his birth certificate. Now

2:20:07 So I'm gonna pass on the Trump clips because I think they're funny and universal enough that we can put them on the next show. Okay. And you can run your clips. Oh really? Are you sure? Yeah, I think they're good enough that we can... it's a humor. Yeah, I have been following the Trump thing and of course, you know, who's making the most money from this right now is NBC because the ratings are up for... And golly gee whiz, he was on the Today Show. What network's that on? Oh wait, and golly gee whiz, he was all over MSNBC. They were criticizing him but they played the whole thing. Of course, because it's great for the ratings of The Apprentice which is on right now.

2:20:45 And I think you are right that it is just a setup for Mitt Romney. Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention Susan Rice married to an ABC News producer. Forgot to mention that. The compromised ABC News. Yeah, so Trump's, yeah, it's annoying. At this point it's just annoying. And it's like another topic of discussion that just distracts from everything else. Oh, it's a total distraction, but I personally find it quite funny because everybody gets so worked up about it. Now, just at the end here, I want to A, curse you and B, thank you. Curse you because you noticed that there was a promotion going on for the Kennedys.

2:21:31 So this thing is a I guess they wanted to run it on the history channel, but the history channel said well This is not really historically correct, so they sold it to reels the and by the way the history channel said that I know so We watch this thing and it's running every single night. There's an episode. It's the biggest piece of crap ever the acting is horrible. Is this the thing with Katie Holmes? Yeah and Greg Kinnear. Katie Holmes by the way I kind of you know Mickey disagrees but I think she's probably the best actor in the bunch and she plays Jackie O but the sets are poor piss poor quality the acting is so atrocious and the whole thing is Kennedy saved the world Kennedy saved the world I'm like oh my god it's so unbelievably stupid now

2:22:23 Because thank you. I won't have to watch it now. No, you don't however because of that I was watching television You know the entertainment TV's like all the kids do these days and I wound up catching the premiere episode Which aired last Sunday and still being repeated of course tonight, but tonight is the second episode of the Borgia Oh, yeah, you have to watch this. This is great. This is 1492 The Cardinal Borgia takes over the papal seat. It's Jeremy Irons who plays Pope Alexander Sextus.

2:23:05 And it's subtitled The Original Crime Family. And this is the type of show that could only have been made by Jews, I swear to God. Because it like rips apart the entire Catholic religion. And not that I care about either one either way. But it's amazing. Now the quality of... And this is Showtime. Man, these guys, they put some money in this stuff. It looks beautiful. It's really, really good. And the story is probably a lot more believable than that Kennedy crap. is really good and I would advise everyone watching because if you just want some really good entertainment that happens to come over television this is it if you got showtime or get it on torrent for all I care

2:23:47 It's really, really, really good. Just outstanding. So they're playing the episode 1 and 2 tonight? Of course, they always repeat it an hour before. Okay, I'll put it out. I'll DVR it and I'll start watching it. Absolutely outstanding. Oh, you know what? Before we go, it'll be too bad if I miss this. One of our producers did some excellent work on TV film promotion. Let me just see if I have this. So he was watching... Where is this guy? If I don't have it, then I'll skip it. Screw it. I'll keep it for next week. It'll be good next week. Don't worry about it anyway, so watch that and by the way I also want to mention I have some people that didn't get thanked for today's donations And I'm gonna push them off to Thursday. I pushed off to Sunday, then I screwed up my mistake

2:24:37 Well, it's all you really have to do for the show. So yeah, I do all the production and everything. Yeah. Yeah. I know Mr. Martyr. I was gonna go downstairs and get the material. Yeah, but you told me no. Erica's just sent me a note and she is a midget, but no big butt I have to say. Okay. Well, he's probably he would be he would know. She's not wearing a bra in this picture either. So just whatever she was wearing when she was in the midget shot, she just looked like she had it. No, no, no, no, she looks cute. She's a cute little thing. Okay. If only she had a flat head. All right, so here we go. There goes our female listenership.

2:25:18 Exactly the work that org slash any of everybody and thank you so much for tuning in we are way over time But we enjoy doing it for you leaving you now with a Max Kaiser and his sidekick there who deconstruct the entire financial crisis right down to the bone and We'll talk to you again. We haven't done our this is kind of weird I totally screwed that up. We haven't done our... It's all you have to do like you just said, the production and this is what we get. I know. For those of you questioning this by the way, it is the Marriott Jazz Quintet. The title of the song is On the Seventh Day. I get a lot of questions about this music that we play at the end of the show. And it's pod safe. Now, the most important question, are you doing twit today?

2:26:09 Yeah, I'm gonna do it from the, uh, from the, uh, Crackpot Commands. Oh no, from the... Hello? From the Buzzkill Bunker. Cool. I'm not going anywhere. I'll tune in then, cool. It's always fun to watch you. Alrighty. I have to comb my hair apparently. Yes. And, uh, the president will be speaking, I think, on Monday or Tuesday, so we'll have an analysis of that on Thursday's show. Coming to you from Gitmo Nation West in the actual Crackpot Command Center here on the Hilltop Watchtower. In the People's Republic of Southern California, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley in the Buzzkill bunker, where it's sunny and pleasant, but the office needs cleaning, I'm John C. DeVore. And your hair needs combing. My hair needs combing. We'll talk to you again on Thursday, right here on No Agenda.

2:27:06 A big US bank laundered billions from Mexico's murderous drug gangs. So this is the Guardian news and they've done a deep investigation into the story that we've covered before which is Wachovia Bank and they were found to have laundered $378 billion or 30% of Mexico's GDP in this time of drug money. The cocaine. Of cocaine, yes. $378 billion. $378 billion laundered through Wachovia, which of course now is owned by Warren Buffett's company Berkshire Hathaway. And of course he's never talked about that either. And it's a huge part of the Mexican GDP. And the bank paid a fine. Well, it's $378 billion in money laundering through the Casas de Cambio.

2:27:56 And they paid a $110 million fine, or less than 2% of one year's profits from Wachovia. Wachovia is now owned by Wells Fargo. Warren Buffett owns 6.5% of it. But from this article there's a very interesting point that I want to note. that relates to this whole financial catastrophe. First of all, Wachovia started really getting involved in this Casa de Cambio in 2004, just when the violence really started getting extreme in the Mexican drug wars. In April and May of 2007, three years later, Wachovia, as a result of increasing interest and pressure from the U.S. Attorney General's office,

2:28:38 began to close its relationship with some of the casas de cambio. And then in July of 2007, all of Wachovia's remaining 10 Mexican Casa de Cambio clients operating through London suddenly stopped. July 2007. What happened in August of 2007? The world credit crunch. The world credit crunch began. So what we see here is that the global banking liquidity is funded from the Mexican cocaine drug cartels. When somebody decided to go after them, they withdrew their liquid cash, because remember in the global economy it's all credit and paper money, there's actually no cash except for the drug money. They took the drug money off the market and they crashed

2:29:29 the global economy. The reason Bear Stearns went bankrupt, the reason Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, is because the Mexican drug cartel withdrew their cash from the market as a protest against against the investigation. In other words, so, while Covia, if I'm following this correctly, they had to pay a fine, no further investigation was pursued, presumably because if they went after this story deeper, the Mexican drug cartel would threaten to withdraw the money again and throw the global economy back into A total standstill? Well, I think they learned their lesson, because let's go on to the next headline. The bank run we knew so little about. This is from the New York Times' Gretchen Morgeson. And she looked at the Federal Reserve Freedom of Information documents that were released only last week. This is based on the Bloomberg News efforts to force the Fed to release information that who they were loaning money to at the Fed's discount window.

2:30:28 And it turns out, according to Gretchen Morgenson, in August 2007, as world financial markets were seizing up, domestic and foreign banks began lining up for for cash from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. That August 20th, Commerzbank of Germany borrowed $350 million at the Fed's discount window. Two days later, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Wachovia each received $500 million. Now, banks only go to the discount window when they're in serious crisis and they're facing a liquidity crunch. Thus began, Gretchen Morgenson says, the bank run that set off the financial crisis of 2008. So, in retrospect, it was set off by Mexican drug gangs. The ending of the money laundering via the banks. Without that access to liquid cash, they froze the economy.

2:31:18 they froze up because it turns out, it appears that drug money was the only cash in the system. Americans don't have jobs, we only have debt, Brits only have debt, there is no cash, there's no liquidity, there's only crime. Alright, so we covered this story at the time and we've said it, we've talked about this and we said that... We suspected it, yeah. And we said that the crash of 2008 The only way that the wheels of global banking systems started turning again was that the money was released by the Mexican drug lords. But what we're saying today is that the reason why the crisis happened to begin with, was that with the withholding of the cash... I remember, let me tell you something Stacey, I remember just very vividly when I was working on Wall Street in the 1980s,

2:32:07 Every Friday we should have cocktails on Park Avenue and watch this parade of limousines. Travel down Park Avenue into the basement of Citibank. Everyone knew this was money that was being laundered by Citibank from drug money. This was an open secret. Nobody doubted this. So I'm glad to see now, at least 20, 25 years later, people are beginning to understand that the global finance community, the global banking system runs entirely on cocaine money. So when they say, well, why is the war on drugs failing? Because they need the cash to run the banks. Why is the drug problem so rampant around the world? Because bankers need that money to pay their bonuses.

2:32:44 The bankers, when we say bankers are terrorists and they kill people and they have the moral equivalency of a Mexican drug lord lopping the head off a baby to support their crime syndicate, that's what we mean. They're the same, they're the same two faces of the same coin. They're terrorists. Blankfein, Diamond, Jose, whomever, drug lord, they're all terrorists. They all revolve around cocaine and money laundering and now we know it unequivocally based on the Gretchen Morgenson's report and others, Wachovia Bank of course, Warren Buffett's now involved with that, who knows what Charlie Munger's habit is, the guy must be a horse! At the time, up until July 2007, when money was

2:33:26 circulating through the banking system from the class A drug dealing. Those CDOs backed by Wachovia Bank, JP Morgan, Bank of America, all these other banks that went the following month to the Fed. Prior to that, their CDOs may have been A-rated. Following that, all the downgrades happened. Now we first reported on this in 2008 when Antonio Maria Costa, then head of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, said he had evidence to suggest that proceeds from drugs and crime were the only liquid investment capital available to banks on the brink of collapse.

2:34:04 He said, quote, interbank loans were funded by money that originated from the drugs trade. There were signs that some banks were rescued that way. Right. And again, here's another aspect to it. Why do analysts give these CDOs a rating of triple A? Why does Moody's S&P Fitch give what is obviously garbage a triple A rating? Isn't it clear they're high on cocaine? Is it clear that people at Moody's, the executives at Moody's, Fitch and S&P need to be in rehab immediately because they're taking massive quantities of cocaine to support their delusions? That's what it's suggesting now. That Wachovia has not been put in trouble. There's no criminal sentence. There's nothing but a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, minute little fine, like pocket change. They're saying it's AAA rated now because Class A drugs are once again backing up the collateral that we're offering, the assets we're selling. I guess this is again why the Federal Reserve doesn't want an audit.

2:35:02 Because if you open up the vaults there at the Fed, whether it's the Fed in New York or the one in Washington, you're going to find Pablo Escobar sniffing 20 tons of blow. Yes. Dvorak.org slash N-A-W-R-A-K.
