00:00 Adam Curry, John C. Dvorak. It's Thursday, August 4th, 2011, time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 327. This is no agenda. Reporting from the front lines of Gitmo Nation from the Four Winds 5000 crackpot command center in the home of country music Nashville in the great state of Tennessee in the morning, I'm Adam Curry. And it's fog and cold here in northern Silicon Valley, I'm John C. Dvorak. Hey, finally connected in the morning to you John. Yeah, sorry about that. That's alright. Sorry about that and hello to all ships at sea. And the boots on the ground, ankles in the straps and all of the human resources in the chat room. NoagendaStream.com, NoagendaChat.net charged up ready to go depreciating your 9.2 million dollar lifetime value. How you doing everybody in the morning?

00:56 So I've got a new musical instrument. Yeah, I heard it during the opening there. Want to give that another whirl? Nice. Very nice. Also known as a Vibra-Slapper or a Donkey-Call. Is that what that is? A Vibra-Slapper? It's a Vibra-Slapper, yeah. Very nice. The Vibra-Slapper. You slap it and it makes that noise. Well, John, I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed Season 1 of Government in Crisis. Great reality show. and i have to got low ratings by the way i got low ratings but and it didn't test well not in the demos it didn't do well in the demos but i have to say i i was highly appreciative of the producers of the show uh... who came in with two minutes to go and they really tried to to pull up a donald trump ratings bonanza i gotcha a cliffhanger as they brought in

02:00 Giffords at the very last moment onto the house floor with two minutes to go. Yeah, that was outstanding I mean of all the things that you and I could have done on producing this show We could have come up with that I think if we if we actually had a meeting about it It's like hey, man How can we put some more drama into this thing and and actually it was on my favorite channel where I watch the government in crisis season one reality show on C-SPAN with a tweet and just about halfway through the vote, this from Gabrielle Giffords office that read this, the Capitol looks beautiful, am I an honor to be at work tonight. She said I'm here, in another tweet she said I'm here to vote on the debt reduction bill, turn on C-SPAN now. Shortly after that tweet came out, Gabrielle Giffords made her way to the House floor and cast her vote in favor. It was a promo, it was great. Yeah, they had a promo on Twitter. The producers went, hey, tweet this, we gotta do this, we gotta tweet this, this is great.

02:58 and then that's pretty amazing yeah and then they should get a standing ovation so the whole thing finished with a bang yeah and apparently the ovation went on for hours it didn't actually because i watched the c-span coverage i i had a lot of time yesterday here at the uh uh two rivers campground which uh is a misnomer it should be uh it should be called in between two highways campground because there's literally a highway on one side and a highway in the other in a triangular fashion river of metal, river of, cars aren't made of metal anymore, river of plastic and batteries. Anyway, so I had a chance to look at it. It did not go on that long at all. In fact, right after she came out on the floor, I was under the impression it went on for a long time. I was bamboozled. No, no, no. It was maybe 45 seconds and then what do you expect? The first speech

03:54 right after someone like that comes onto the floor in your head all doll broken up in her hair all short and stuff which is keeping short purpose on purpose of i think for obvious programming reasons uh... cuz you know you can you have you got to see it and here's uh... the first uh... congressperson or senator i guess to speak Kids who are at the back that you can't see because you're standing in front of them. It's the first time that we've ever had pages here not in two small groups, but one summer group. See? What do you do? Do you thank the fact that Gabby Giffords is on the floor? No, we've got to thank the pages. These pages are going home this week and they have had a chance of being here to see history in the making on several different fronts. I wish you'd give them... Before you do that,

04:51 The page board consists of Representative Fox, North Carolina, myself, Representative Gidget, Representative Kildee, I yield to the gentlelady from Colorado. Okay, so he thanks the pages. Now someone should recognize Ms. Giffords. Thank you, the gentleman for yielding. I want to thank all of the wonderful pages who are in the back of the room. Let's thank the pages. You have really seen history the last six weeks in this Congress and we're so honored and proud to have all of you here with us. And I'm sure This may not be my place, but we all want to welcome back our wonderful colleague, Congresswoman Giffords. Thank you. There it is. Thank you. There it is.

05:35 i found that to be extremely weird that she walks on the floor and uh... the television version was like exactly what you think you saw was all everyone was like amazing now they were thanking pages in g you guys have had such a great opportunity to see douchebags at work so is reprogrammed all the way for the reality show totally reprogrammed for the reality show and what they didn't put in was a fantastic speech by uh... representative more from wisconsin who really followed on the American Dream speech of our president. She really wants

06:11 the ultimate American dream for her grandchildren. Thank you so much for yielding. So many of my colleagues have said that it was necessary to storm the White House and take the country hostage in the name of their grandchildren. So I wanted to go on record talking about what I want for my grandchildren. I want Head Start for my grandchildren. I want WIC programs and early childhood education for my programs. I want my my kids to go to a school where they can participate in the science fair. I want immunizations for them. I want research done for food safety to make sure the chicken nuggets are safe.

06:51 I thought I fell down when I heard that. I want to make sure the chicken McNuggets are safe that they're eating that's like it's food. It's food isn't it? I want clean air and clean water for them. I want jobs where they invent things like new energy sources, and yes, I want them to be contributing citizens and pay taxes. That's right, pay taxes slaves! And I want a safety net for them in case they're disabled and when they become elderly and if they get cold in the cold winters of Wisconsin that they'll have some energy assistance. I want my grandchildren to get the American Dream. That's right. And I yield back. That's it. There it is ladies and gentlemen, the American Dream. The American Dream welfare. We want welfare, we want vaccines, we want chicken McNuggets, and we want heat. They want some heat. There's your American Dream. What is wrong with these people?

07:47 Of course, Joe Biden was a little pissy and he messed it up because he didn't get this on video. At least I couldn't find it anywhere. He did get an honorable mention of his lines. He had a couple lines in the reality show. Yeah, here they come. Hold on a second. Misfire? No? I don't know if the real news, let's huddle up around the water cooler. By the way, hello, it's time for the real news. We find Joe Biden commiserating with Gabby Giffords about craniotomies and Gabby Giffords, the talk of the morning, she's on the front page of every newspaper in the United States of America and well she should be making that surprise visit to vote.

08:29 for the bill yesterday in Washington, her first vote since she was shot less than seven months ago in Tucson. Now after the House vote, Vice President Joe Biden spoke to reporters telling them he was there because of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. He went on to recount their conversation saying, quote, When I went up she said, Joe, I said, now we're both members of the cracked head club. You know, I had two craniotomies for real. They literally took the top of my head off twice. Biden had two surgeries in 1980. Wait a minute, did you know this little nugget? They took the top of his head off twice?

09:09 No, I did not know that. And what did they put in there while they were opening it up? You know they implanted something. You're now a member of the Cracked Head Club. Are you kidding me? This guy has like, he has the sensitivity of a doorknob. Hey, that's good man, now we're both members of the Cracked Head Club. Little different, Joe, when they're taking the top of your head off to urinate in it, versus getting it shot. So then of course I spent some time watching the spin-off reality show known as the Carney show with the man with the Napoleon complex Jake Carney spokeshole for the White House actually one of the journalists are getting pretty funny in In his show and I don't think he likes it

10:01 So I think they're irked at him because he's been so arrogant. Oh, very glib. So they're starting to throw one-liners at him. Yeah, here's the first one-liner. On the debt legislation, when does the President plan to sign it? I assume as soon as possible. How do you plan to let us know? You don't think he should just wait for a few days? Yes, as soon as possible. I'm sure we will let you know the process by which legislation, having passed both houses, makes its way down here. So it has to make its way down here. I guess they put it in a limo and the legislation has to come down from the hill above. And here's the question. Down Pennsylvania Avenue and lands on his desk and we will let you know when it's signed. By hand or auto pen?

10:48 I believe it will be by hand. So the guy says, by hand or by auto pen? And Carney actually says, oh I believe it'll be by hand. I don't know, we do so much with the auto pen apparently. And then in the same... Funny he fell into that. Yeah, oh yeah. And then in the same, like, I don't know, like ten minutes later... We should not sit on our hands and say there's nothing we can do. In fact, that would be irresponsible. And there are many things this president believes that we can continue to do to ensure that the economy grows. Yes. Let me just say, if I could, the note that Jamie just handed me is to let you know that the president has signed the bill and... By himself. Yes. Yeah, exactly. By himself. It wasn't, it was auto-pen. I think that's exactly why, all of a sudden. So first the guy says, oh, should we, when's it going to be signed? And then Carney makes a really funny joke saying, don't you think we should wait a few days?

11:46 And then the guy says, will it be signed by his hand or by auto pen? I think it's by hand. Oh wait, it's signed. Auto pen. Clearly auto pen. Well, they showed him signing it, so I'm not so sure about that. Well, they had a picture of him with a pen in his hand at his desk. Well, it was a video. Oh really? Well, what was he signing? He was signing probably an excuse letter for his daughter missing school. Obama 2008? He's signing checks. He's signing checks. So then... My God, that's all I do all day is sign checks. Now, so to wind up Season 1, and then we have to move on to Season 2, because yes, they had a great lead in, they thought, with the ratings, so they pulled out Season 2 of the government in crisis reality show. But here's the one thing that I think we spoke about one or two shows ago that is irksome, and I'm not quite sure I like what they've done with this bill.

12:40 Jay, yesterday you were talking about how the President's going to have a role in the super committee as we're calling it now. If it's a bipartisan, bicameral thing and the President retaking the bully pulpit today, what's the President's role going to be? How is he going to affect that, the committee? Well, he is the, as I think Senator McConnell said at some point in the last few days, the one person out of 300 plus million in America, the only one who can sign bills and make them laws. So he obviously has a crucial role in this process and he has a crucial role in persuading both members and the public about what he believes is the right path to take. And you've seen him play that role

13:25 in recent weeks and months and I'm sure he will going forward. Now the authority to name the members obviously rests with the leaders. But as I said, I think in answer to an earlier question, there is ample product to provide to that committee once it is formed. And the President is the author of uh... one such product and he thinks that uh... that it's real framework for how you go about a balanced approach to dealing with issues like entitlements and revenues so the way i see this is uh... is it's it's a perfect setup the president as we've just heard reiterate is the only one who can sign a bill into law so he's the boss the boss of all of us

14:02 And we're going to put together this super committee which at one point was being called the super congress. So why doesn't congress just stay on vacation? They don't need to come home, they don't need to come back to work, we don't need them anymore. We got, what is it, six people? Is it six or twelve, this super committee? It's six and six as far as I know. Six and six? and uh... and by the way i there's a somewhat disingenuous that you have to be the president doesn't sign a bill can be overrated which is a veto essentially yeah and one form or another it can be overridden without his signing it and going to law so yes bull crap but we've got people are supposed to know the law anymore how the constitution works so i can't we'll just have this is super committee and they'll take care of everything don't worry about it and where i mean i'm sure it's easy enough to pick six shills from each side

14:50 And everyone else can just go pound sand. This sounds like it's an unconstitutional move to me, John. Yeah, well someone has to sue over it before he become unconstitutional. They're looking for anything they can do to do less work. So then we get into, and I made a little montage. So of course here's what happened. Yeah, oh yeah, I did some work here in the rig. So that was over and literally everyone ran to the airports and flew home for vacation. They all jumped on their planes, Pelosi jumped on her Air Force jet, actually she didn't. I think she might have hung around.

15:30 but they needed to so this is the the the new way of tricking these stupid slaves of america into believing that the president is great and republicans are stupid and actually they're both extremely evil with this f a a thing have you been following this i have to have a slight i have a clip kind of discussing it but it's not necessarily playable okay then but let me play my montage because we had Reed, we had Chuck Schumer, we had Steny Hoyer, and we had Rockefeller of course, and then some other woman from California.

16:15 And they got up, and this is a montage of a 45 minute press conference, but it's pretty clear what the message is and what the talking points are. House Republicans playing games with FAA. We've had 20 plus extensions of this to get some of the other issues worked out. But that wasn't good enough for them this time. They had to try to hold a number of issues hostage as they have done with more than 300 million Americans in recent days. We now have safety inspectors, safety inspectors, paying for their own hotel bills. The hostages they tried to hold, they picked a number of democratic senators. They come back and want some more hostages. Some 70,000 workers for contractors around this country.

17:03 are being held captive. We need to get this done and we should get it done today. And hostage taking, holding 315 million Americans and the entire country hostage to the threats of taking us over the precipice. 75,000 people are now over the precipice because of Republican hostage taken. Before themselves, before the petty politics that they are pursuing. We need to act on this issue now. 75,000 Americans demand it. Our country demands it and is irresponsible to hold hostage these people and our country and the safety of our airways pending some petty political gain. So they made up this crisis because they want to get their way on a number of issues. Primarily, I think, an attack

17:55 on working men and women. This is government by hostage taking, followed by holding the full faith and credit of this government hostage. Government by hostage taking. Are holding the livelihoods of Americans hostage until they get everything they want. There you go. Hostage, hostage! These horrible people are holding people hostage! so so then they roll out uh... and i and i know what this is by the way it has nothing to do with hostage taking but the back story uh... or what i'm sorry the front story is there's an f a a for funding the federal aviation ministration and this has been uh... it's one of those kick the can down the road things they've been uh... holding this up uh... they haven't really done the real negotiation just been renewing it twenty times over and over and over again

18:47 And apparently there's some little bit of unimportant legislation in there that is petty politics and that's why, which the Republicans put into the bill, and that's why Rockefeller actually has said we won't agree to this and we can't sign it. And the Republicans went, oh okay, then we won't do that. so without that funding couple things happen a hundred and fifty six million dollars doesn't go to uh... i think it's twenty regional airports so they can't build anything that's a woman from uh... palm springs who is like oh our new towers not being finished and then there's seventy thousand contract workers who uh... effectively their companies are getting paid so uh... there uh... no longer on the job so then they roll out uh... rayla hood the gangster

19:33 in Carney's show and he is the one that's supposed to sell it but he does a really bad job and I have to say reporters in the room on the ball very very smart So what they're saying is, if this bill doesn't pass, no money for the FAA, therefore, keeping the American people hostage like they just did, hostages, pushing 70,000 people over the precipice, they're killing people and babies and they're stomping on puppies. Mr. Secretary, you said, you noted you were a Republican member of Congress and Speaker Boehner's office, one of your former colleagues, said today They're ready for a deal, but it's a Democrat. It's Jay Rockefeller in the Senate who's blocking this. So why hasn't the president got on the phone to him and figured this out? A good question, right? Why hasn't- so if it's Rockefeller, a Democrat, why hasn't the president just said, hey, you know, Rockefeller, just get this bill done so we get these people back to work because we're pushing them over the precipice. We're killing them! I'll let Jake talk about what the president does or does not do. I'll tell you what I've been doing. I've been talking to members of Congress. I've been talking to them for the last

20:33 two weeks since this started. And one of the things I've told them, which they know, this is the thing that really makes the public mad. Congress can't do their job. This is, please pay attention, you're supposed to be really mad about Congress and bad Republicans. Pay attention. When ordinary citizens around the country hear that their friends and neighbors ought to be working on a construction site at an airport and they're not because Congress couldn't do their work, This is what infuriates the American people. Congress should have passed a clean bill, could have passed a clean bill, I urged them to pass a clean bill. They can still do it. Congress can still do it.

21:16 The adjournment resolutions that they have passed allows them to come back every four days in the house and pass legislation. They could do it. I'm asking Congress to come back and do for the American people what they've been talking about. Put 75,000 people back to work. It's very clear. This is all about the horrible Republicans taking people out of work. And then all of a sudden, someone smart asks a very good question. Let me see if I have the right one here. Yes. but is there anything that the president can do? Is there any executive action that the president can do? Any emergency action? You'll have to ask Jay about that. You know what, I'm... You've got to talk to Jay about anything the president does. I'm just here to sell you the message that the Republicans are evil. I'm working hard right now. Do you know, as secretary, of any emergency action that can be taken to

22:08 uh... this situation or to help all these people who are out of work in the interim. I'll let Jay answer that. So you hear he's setting him up right? This guy is, I don't know who it is but he's asking a really good question. Is there not any emergency action the president can take to put these people back to work? I love Jay will talk about that. I'm Ray LaHood. I'm here to sell you that the Republicans evil. I follow up my question. Let me take the question from Mike and then I'll come back. that the president can grant you, the secretary, the authority to shift funds and that would help out the FAA. Is that something that you would do or would consider doing? What I want done is what Congress has done on 20 other occasions. So he's faltering. So the guy clearly has

22:59 uh... the information that the president has the power to choke gap so then so for the this goes on and on and on and finally carney's back on the stand and the guy says look The president has the power, we've had our analysts look at it. He can tell the secretary of transportation to switch some funds around and put these people back on the job. Isn't that what you want? Isn't what this whole thing is you're telling us Republicans are evil, they haven't passed a clean bill, they haven't given us a clean bill? The president can do that with one stroke of the pen. At the risk of appearing cynical. Bill, if not you, surely not after all these years.

23:39 if the president is really so interested in getting those 74,000 people back to work, then why did you stop bashing congress and switch the funds over so they can go to work? Bill, this is a fascinating process where the party with the responsibility, the party that created this problem is out of town and the reporters here are blaming the party that wants the problem fixed. fact of the matter is that look we are obviously looking at the different look you know i guess i guess better it gets better options that we have options yes yes we're looking but the simple reality is that because of a political dispute this is exactly what just a political dispute but he no one's talking about what the political dispute is which i'll get to in a second americans loathe about the process here justifiably and understandably uh... because of an ideological we driven

24:35 decision made, there is a stalemate over a measure that has never been a problem in the past. They can resolve, we need to and we can have fights over these issues that divide us, but we should not have these fights in a way that throw 74,000 people out of, in ways that throw 74,000 people out of work innocently. This is not their fight. And so, as Secretary LaHood made clear, it is wholly inappropriate for members of Congress to go on recess, go on vacation,

25:12 and leave this issue hanging and take away from these hardworking Americans their paychecks for at least another four, five, six weeks when they could resolve this issue right away. Now, go. If your goal is to get them back to work, then get them back to work. It's within the President's power, apparently. Apparently based on your hearing from some other reporter who's hearing it from another I think maybe a little is that a little reporting on everybody's part would be efficacious Shut up slave is what he's saying so I start to look yes efficacious So what do you so that this guy bill whoever his name is whatever his name is he's saying you know what? We've checked it out, and I'm sorry

26:01 But the president has the authority and has the power to actually shift the funds and bring these people back to work. So why doesn't he do that? Well, just because some reporter said they're reporting on reporting, you need to report better. You know what you're talking about. So I look into it. This is about EFCA, John. I looked into the bill and what happened was when the president came into office, Obama, there are three members on the National Mediation Board. This is all about the airlines and the merger of Delta Airlines with, I think, is it Northwest they merged with? I believe so. And of course Delta has no union.

26:46 and they want the unions want to have this huge extra union in fact it is payback it is payback for them getting obama into office we've almost forgotten the s c i u and the other also take all the workers union and all of us remember go right so here's uh... jerald mckinty uh... the huge union boss literally saying it's payback Well, the payback would be the Employee Free Choice Act. That would be a vehicle to strengthen and build the American labor movement and the middle class. Our people are suffering harshly with the condition of the economy, the condition of the country, states and local governments and schools and places like that. We would expect

27:46 with obama's leadership and democrats in the house and senate uh... to be helpful so what this is about is thirty eight billion dollars in new union dues that the unions want and part of the f car the employee free choice act which we spoke about in two thousand seven i think john uh... some also unknown as the employee forced choice act Where it changes, it used to be, or the way it still is today, if there's a union vote and people who don't vote, their votes are counted as no. And the National Mediation Board wants to change this rule, in fact they changed the rule and said, you know what, what it's going to be is a majority vote. So you have to show up. So now instead of secret ballots, which is the way I think voting should happen,

28:38 is now people have to sign a card in public whether they're for or against which of course creates a huge super union and the last time we had an election the president got half a billion dollars from the unions so all of this fear-mongering government crisis show which you will hear about for the next two months is about the democrats wanting their next half billion dollar check because the union is saying hey Hey Obama, it's time for payback son. You gotta give us that union, you gotta give us that EFCA, you promised that. That's what you said you would do when you got into office. You want some money for re-election? You want that money son? You gotta play to our tunes son. And so of course the Republicans are doing, we don't want that guy to get half a billion dollars, screw him! So over the back of 70,000 people, both parties are disingenuous and it's really about the super union.

29:34 it's disgusting but it's the new show and then and the show and the show will be all about how the the republicans are destroying people off the cliff and uh... off the precipice and it's also horrible but it's by the end i have uh... forty people at six links in the show notes three two seven dot any show notes dot com uh... this has been written about uh... what what the you can read the actual language of the bill This is all about the unionization of Delta Airlines and getting the Employee Free Choice Act in and creating super unions, which of course actually I'm not against unions, but even when you see this Gerald McEntee, what a douchebag! Jimmy Hoffa all over again. I mean tell people about the power of the unions in this country, John, and what they've done.

30:22 They have actually not done much recently because people are onto their game. But as a former union organizer myself, I think they've outlived their usefulness in most instances. It's the mob! Yeah, well there's that. And they elect presidents. What do unions do? Is it like $400 or $500 a year? It depends on this individual union, but it can be that much easy. So it's just despicable that no one mentions what the actual problem is. Well, they're never going to mention it. So I've been watching MSNBC and you know what their take on this is. No, I bet it's good. It's a beauty. It's about these little airports in rural areas. Yeah, that's the $163 million that is part of the stopgap measure.

31:14 Yeah, well there's a good like there's been any blame they say was that the Republicans are out to screw the governors of these little states including Rockefeller and Harry Reid. They're really gonna stick it to Harry Reid by shutting down a rural airports in Nevada. Yeah, it turns out to be one airport in Elko. Yeah. I don't know if anyone's ever been there, but the taxpayers are paying for an airport in Elko, which is in the middle of nowhere. And it's just a total scam. I have a couple of interesting clips because MSNBC is going out of their way to crank it up with... Well, they need ratings. They need ratings. Disingenuous bullcrap. And once you get off this FAA thing, I want to switch over to a Chris Matthews clip.

32:04 Which confounded me to the point where I had to go into C-SPAN archives to get the real clip to see what was going on here and what a bunch of bullcrap we're getting from these TV stations. Yeah, I'm good for it because I'm done with this whole FAA thing. I just want people to know right from the outset, your government in crisis, season two. has already started and it's really about unionization as nothing to do the president with one stroke of the auto pen but put these people back to work the money is there ray la hood the gangster can pay them but they're not doing it because they need a half a billion dollars from the unions and in fact the unions are pressuring

32:44 the administration because it was a promise it was a promise that he has to make good on right now and without doing it and there's no way it has to happen and they'll do anything they roll out all the big guns just to make this uh... happen under the guise of who were pushing people over the precipice so i was looking at the contracts are that are using the in advance right now because of this this Whatever you want to call this dispute. No guys. There's some reality here. It's reality There's some beauties in here blocky Martin is sitting on three point five billion Dollar con 3.5 billion dollar contract for replacement of air traffic controller displays Yeah, because they need 3d. It's a new thing. I don't know work

33:36 You know ITT systems manager wherever they are. Yeah, they have a 1.4 billion dollar contract for next-generation air traffic control systems Which I think would include new displays. I don't know what no no the next gen thing that's 11 billion dollars and This is about planes. It's something that no aviator in his right mind wants is that the planes will be talking to each other and you can remove the controllers. It's a horrible thing. I don't want that. I want to talk to a guy who has his eyes on the screen on the ground, not some computer talking to another plane. There's a lot of billions that sitting around waiting to be spent. It's unbelievable how much money we spend so what do you got? I'm watching Chris Matthews and and he comes up with this unbelievable accusation that the Republicans want to tax the poor Yeah, I'm sure they do he has he has this clip

34:32 Orrin Hatch kind of rambling and he and and so I went and got the original clip and they did I can't even express how much they have Butchered this clip but what got my attention was the way the clip ends because you are you and I both have the same ear for this sort of thing this was truncated in a very awkward way In other words, it was chopped for some reason a little too close to or during the... it wasn't like chopped during a pause. Yeah, we actually... our ears perk up just like when we hear that. It's like, oh, hold on a second. That was chopped. They cut it out of context. Yeah, and this is so obvious, but then he wraps around this basic theory, and then he gets some, and here's what really bothers me, because I've done these kinds of shows, and he brought two people on to discuss his thesis, but they were, they're like everybody else who comes on to these shows, they're called up the same day, they come in, they sit down, they put an earpiece in their ear, and they're basically cold, it's cold reeds, it's almost, you're in there, and so you have to respond, so it makes it sound like you're,

35:35 But if these people actually heard the original clip, one of them would have said, hey, this is bullcrap. So this latest Chris, Chris Matthews making things up. Yeah. And for shared sacrifice. This is something new. Adding to this class warfare we're hearing from the right. They started it. Here's proof. Orrin Hatch saying we got to tax the poor more. Let's listen. I get a little tired of hearing the Obama approach towards shared sacrifice. The top 1% of the so-called wealthy pay 38% of all income taxes. The other side just spends and spends and spends and they want to tax and tax and tax so they can spend some more. My gosh, when are we going to wake up in this country and realize they're spending us into Bolivia? And I hear how they're so caring for the poor and so forth. The poor need jobs.

36:27 They also need to share some of the responsibility. They need to share some responsibility. Tax the poor, Joan. That is a new anthem. I've never heard that in politics. Not never, but in a long time, I've heard the Republican Party be restrained about, let's go sock it to the poor. This is a new one. Alright, so they faded it out really quick, but not quick enough. It was a poor hack job, that's for sure. Hack, it was a hack job. And not only that, but what preceded what he said about the poor and what follows, which I have the clip of, in the case that this was just really a miserable job and let me give a couple I didn't want to play the whole clip so let me give a couple backgrounders. One he talks about 51% of the country

37:07 does not pay any taxes and they're people that are working. And then he makes the assertion which should have been in the clip he had, because right before he talks about the poor, he talks about how people making $80,000 a year are being subsidized. And he kind of implies that what he's talking about when he says poor, he's talking about people who are making $80,000 a year aren't paying any taxes and getting subsidized for Obamacare. And then when he says about making the poor contribute more he immediately goes in right after that where they clipped it he says I'm not talking about people in poverty I'm not talking about real poor people. Of course they cut that out. So let's listen to the real clip. A family of four earning over $80,000 a year gets subsidies. Think about that. And that's what we call the poor? They wonder why the money don't go far enough? When are we going to wake up and realize that

37:59 The other side just spends and spends and spends and they want to tax and tax and tax so they can spend some more. My gosh, when are we going to wake up in this country and realize they're spending us into Bolivia? And I hear how they're so caring for the poor and so forth. The poor need jobs. They also need to share some of the responsibility. Now we don't want the really poor people who are in poverty to have to pay income taxes, but 51% of all households... Wow! Good find! What an unbelievable, disingenuous bull crap! $80,000 is considered poor?

38:46 Well, that's by the definition in Obamacare it is because there's a subsidy involved in some sort. And that's what he's talking about. And he made it very clear right at that where they truncated his clip to try to bamboozle the idiots who actually listen to MSNBC. to bamboozle them into thinking that the republicans are now out to tax the poor and that's bull... I mean so I... you could see what triggered my interest was that bad clip. And they cut it off where he says we don't want to get the really poor eighty thousand dollars poor. Hey, you know what? I think we're just... Mickey, we're on the poverty line. We're skating it. That's amazing. She's like tell me about it. She's buying thirty four dollar dresses.

39:34 but they look good on you. You can get a great dress for that. H&M, I love H&M. Those guys rock. Let's thank a few executive producers and then I want to ask how you're doing on the tour. Sure, sure, sure. Did we receive any help, any support for this program? Yeah, we did. We actually have a new night and we have one, two, unfortunately the machine doesn't have the huge giant screen. Don't worry, the FAA will replace it. Yeah, for a billion dollars. I got, well let's just go over these guys. We got our new executive producer Yaz.

Double shots are a little complicated. I have to kind of talk over the end there in order to get it going. There we go.

Anyway, in fact, for those of you who are new to the program... Adios, mofo. That's Rick Perry. Then I want to make a quick mention, the Noah Generation Shill Placement Service is now up and running.

45:38 The first step in any vast conspiracy is to infiltrate various organizations with your shills and puppets. So, No Agenda Nation's shill placement service will help you find a job. What this does, it's a backdoor into Craigslist. You sign up for a free account at noagendanation.com. And it will then troll Craigslist for a job for you, and this is Eric the shill who was set this up Which I think is Craigslist all over the country all over the country right now. You may have a Shitty commute, but you might have a job well You might want to move some people are gonna have to move now And then finally as someone pointed this out to me, and I do not know who did this But whoever got it into the urban dictionary we highly appreciate it the term in the morning

46:27 Definition this is the urban dictionary, which is like it's cool right the urban dictionary a friend a friendly morning greeting used all over the world Same as top of the morning, but it's just in the morning usually around 9 or 10 a.m. And it has examples of usage John in the morning Adam Adam in the morning John That is cool. That is so whoever did that good job on you. I really appreciate that. That's fantastic. I And then I want to thank Hot Pockets produced funny if that actually became like a hundred years from now That's what people said. Well, it's in the Urban Dictionary is within a good morning. They start saying in the morning In the morning daddy. Why do we stay in the morning? Well, son, let me tell you no one knows over 100 years ago in a little RV

47:20 Big big thanks to Rhino the Bearded whose noagendacovers.com came in with $30. That's $19.98 from his art cut and then we had the Noagendacovers.com is actually pretty cool. It's t-shirts of some of the best covers of the No Agenda album art which Rhino the Bearded has set up. And the two producers whose album arts were most popular and used have donated their proceeds from the project into the pot. That's how we come up with $30. Sir DSC in Oregon, $6.66, and Jesse Anderson $3.33. We highly appreciate that type of support as well.

48:01 and uh... well let me just uh... do this uh... before we go on and talk about uh... the hot pockets two thousand eight or so thanking rhino the bearded of course all of our p r associates uh... are exact uh... so executive producers he has chad marbots uh... sir black knight eric did arian and Shane Pascoe and our associate executive producer Frank Agenstadt from Melbourne, Australia. We appreciate the support. It's what keeps the show on the air. It's what keeps the RV rolling. It's what keeps us just above that poverty line. Everybody else out there who has not done so, you can always help us out by propagating the formula. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth.

48:51 Please say it like you mean it. Shut up, slave. So John, last we spoke we were in, where were we? We were in Austin, Texas. And we were, it was hard to leave Austin, Texas I will tell you, seeing as we were in a mansion with our own wing, air conditioned, our own bathroom, nice shower with a real shower head. And I wanted to stay an extra night. I didn't want to start rolling until Monday. And Miss Mickey, slave driver that she is, it's like, no, we've got to get to Mississippi. We've got to get to Rhino the Bearded. So we rolled out and we drove up north to Rhino the Bearded, who lives just outside of BFE, which we actually passed. This is, pardon the language, bumfuck Egypt.

49:52 Which is, which the etymology of bumfucked Egypt, BFE, is Egypt Mississippi. And this is just shy of Tupelo, that's about 30 miles- I didn't know it was in Egypt Mississippi until I read your post. Uh, well this is what the people in uh, Mississippi believe. So I'll let them have that. And so we were just about 30 miles south of Tupelo, Mississippi, home of the birthplace of Elvis Presley. But I gotta tell you, we rolled up around 630. It was amazing. It could not have been more authentic Mississippi, John. It was, you know, A, it was 100 degrees, no wind. We parked the Duchess on the

50:36 In the in the yard, there's 11 cars in this yard. It's great It's like a car on blocks and then there's some four-wheeler car on block. Yeah Yeah, there's a four with a couple of four-wheelers some jet skis and it's Rhino who lives there with his dad who actually reminds me a lot of Kelsey Grammer's dad in Frazier Crane. Oh, yeah, except you know, not without the cane. I the guys funny and we had it we had an awesome time uh... rhino pulled out is uh... is rubens to be overseen one of these things in action uh... so i guess i got into some of the accents which is not uh... is not meant to be degrading is just the question on my mind was that you go shooting now we didn't go shooting we did not know what now we have we didn't go shooting but ryan so this is a rubens to

51:27 is a tube with holes in it and you hook up the propane tank to it and you light it and then you put a speaker in front of it and then the flames dance all across this tube. There's a video of it on YouTube and also Miss Mickey put it on the Facebook page, itm.im.com slash 208. Yeah, and it's great! But of course we couldn't fire up the grill because you know the Because the propane tank was attached to the Rubens tube So we're making fire in the backyard and it's funny and we're drinking beers And I think Mickey had four Coronas unbelievable. She's just great. She's pounding him down Then Rhino comes out and he makes the most amazing hot wings now Let me tell you about the hot wings John is the secret is all in the sauce which he gets from Arkansas

52:16 My goodness. My ass was a flamethrower. It was unbelievably hot. It was just burning but it was so good. And then he made onions. You know how to make the onions? Alright, so the onions, you gotta put them in some aluminium foil. And you throw your onions in there. You throw some salt and pepper and a stick of butter. And you let that simmer for like 40 minutes. Now that's after the charcoal is hot. See, because the charcoal, you know the charcoal's ready after you've had two beers. Then the charcoal is just right. I mean, this is literally how they were talking to me. It was fantastic. Captain Negative, his neighbor, was there, who's a Ford salesman. Captain Negative, yeah. And then we played pool.

53:00 It was great. We played, they have a games room and we played pool in the games room and we drank whiskey and we were singing country songs. It was absolutely highlight of the trip. It was a great time. Next day, of course we slept in a little bit and by the way I went online to, you know, Mechanics Bank has that online system just, you know, I just wanted to see how we're doing on cash and I'm like what the heck is this? Nine times someone used a cloned version of my debit card and took out $400 all across LA. Oh, is it in LA? Yep. And this is the crazy thing, because I called them, I called the bank, I said, look, we're going on the road, so just so you know, don't cut off my card, because you may see like Alabama, Mississippi, Kentucky, you know, Texas. So, okay, you know, they made a note. So they know I'm gone, and then they see like Venice Beach, really? Pasadena, really? Sacramento, really? That's where I'm not. Sacramento? Yes.

53:57 So the guy, I wonder... And it gets worse! So the guy's on the run, popping $400, because you can only get $400 out of the day. No, you can get $500 out of Chase or Bank of America. Bank of America. But they were doing... No, it was Bank of America, $400, Chase you can get $500. But they were doing $400 at a time. So of course I didn't notice this, because we have a daily limit on the card. And you don't notice that. And then they got greedy, then they took three in one day. It's a big pain in the ass, because of course my card has to be shut off. I gotta sign all this paperwork before I can get a new card, so if Miss Mickey leaves me, I'm screwed. You'll be walking home. I will be. So she's the only one with a card left. It was disheartening. Disheartening? Yeah, disheartening. And of course I don't get the money back for three weeks either. It's like $4,000.

54:53 Wow. Yeah, it's a big pain in the ass. Anyway, I wonder where you went in LA where somebody made either an extra copy of your thing or they got your pin number. Yeah, I looked at this because I'm trying to figure it out. I think, you know those, you know at a gas station they have that kind of that thing they just plop down on the corner and they say it has an ATM sign on it? Think it had to be one of those I think those are the dodgy ones because basically that you know they get those ATM machines They plug it into a phone line and into the power, and that's it, but they actually use one of those portable ATM machines Yeah, I did. I think that was that was my mistake, so I won't be doing that again, but it's upsetting as pain in the ass anyway

55:36 Then, Rino took us driving and five minutes from his house is Smithville. And Smithville, you'll recall, had this huge tornado come through April 27th. And it was like five minutes from his house. I'm like, well what did you guys do? He said, oh there were tornado warnings going off everywhere and everyone was over at our house because we had the generator. We were watching the TV. But they have no basements, no cellars, no place to hide. They just, you know, just hold on is what we do down here. We just hold on. Yeah, most of those areas that part of the country there's a lot of water table issues. So a lot of people don't build cellars. Yeah, it's hard to build a cellar. So they just held on and they got lucky. And, but a lot of people didn't. Miss Mickey took some great pictures. I think she'll be uploading those partially to Facebook and mickeysees.com as well.

56:28 I was nice to see everyone rebuilding though, that was kind of cool. And then he took us up to the birthplace of Elvis Presley, which I think is a much better deal than Graceland. If you want to tour his house, which is a two bedroom thing, no, just a two room structure, it's $4. If you want to visit the museum and church, it's $12 per person. So, that was good. And then we started driving towards Nashville. And then we actually drove up the Natchez Trace Parkway. You familiar with this? No. Alright, well if anyone ever says take the Natchez Trace Parkway, don't do it.

57:14 This is supposed to be like the this is like a beautiful road And you do go past some amazing things like beautiful waterfalls and Indian mounds, which is like wow It's like Indians made this mound of dirt cool. Yeah, it's a mine's a mound of dirt all right now i get a raise a bunch of indians inside but because the way this parkway is is what you can go over fifty fifty mile an hour speed limit and it's strictly in force and everyone says don't speak as you get nailed is apparently cops hiding behind them behind the mounds uh... you uh... the the way it's built is there's trees on both sides you get tunnel vision and we're on this thing for a hundred miles i was freaking out

57:56 It's very hard to drive on that. You don't want to do that. But I did pick up the local Amory, Mississippi newspaper if you're interested in a couple of local stories from what's going on around town. Are you? Yeah, everybody is. Okay. Let's see, this is actually from Aberdeen. A motion was passed a few months ago to continue the furlough program for teachers. $210,000. Teachers were furloughed throughout the school district. Three days spared the district from paying them for a day and a half's pay. That's continued. The Aberdeen School Board has approved a network administrator position. $45,000 to run the entire Aberdeen school system.

58:39 That's in there. And then, there were local elections. So the whole paper is filled with election ads. Boy, they take their election seriously. Are there any interesting or entertaining stories that you can give us? Well, the entertaining... There's two. The entertaining story that... What is his name? Hood is up for re-election as sheriff. I forget his first name. And Rhino told us that this Hood guy ran on a family values ticket, but he got caught with his Mintret mistress just like 30 miles down the road in a motel. But he's still going to win. That's never happened before. Yeah, really. And there's an editorial from Beth Boswell Jacks about planking and owling. See, this has just hit Mississippi. Planking and owling.

59:26 and uh... you know what planking is but what's owling? Owling is you sit, you perch on a uh... on a rooftop like an owl and uh... here she says once more the object is to pose somewhere weird this time in an owl position so your picture can be made and posted online causing you to be recognized as an outstanding player of the game there are actually pages set up in the cyber world for people to share these photos I have seen a few of these pages and okay I admit it I howled with laughter, tears running down my face. Do I recommend planking and owling? Most definitely! No equipment necessary, all ages can play, just bring your funny bone, don't sit on the dog and stay off the rooftops and banisters. Have fun! And that to me is the epitome of the South.

1:00:14 Where everyone else is like, oh, planking is so dangerous people are dying and howling. Don't sit on the roof. Don't do it. But in Mississippi it's like go do it. No equipment necessary. How much does it cost? There's planking nothing good, son. Go. Plank. Go howl. Get out there. Well, you see that's sociology. I see something different. What's that? During the Great Depression, pole sitting and these sorts of activities... They were huge! It was cheap! ...were extremely popular and all I'm seeing is, whoop, there's the cycle! We're right in the Depression. You're right, we're in the Depression. Oh, very good. Nice assessment. I like it a lot. I like it. So it's just gonna get worse.

1:00:57 Because it bottoms out in a year and a half, two years. Oh man, so what do you mean, 2014 is when... No, 2013 will be rock bottom, we'll be dragging our ass on the bottom of the bay right there, boing, boing, boing. And so if you think things are bad now, wait. Just wait. So whether Obama gets re-elected or not doesn't make any difference. So I do want to thank RINO and his dad once again for showing us a real good time. I make a little bit of fun of them, but they make more fun of themselves than I do. And we had great food, really appreciated that. By the way, so we're in Nashville, we roll in late Tuesday night. Yesterday, Miss Mickey went into town. It's 110 degrees, it's crazy here.

1:01:44 And she needed a day of beauty. It's not easy living in a box. And I stayed in the RV and I literally prepped for almost eight hours straight. She got back. It's still 101 degrees at 7 p.m. We decide to go out to eat. What is it now? Well, it's overcast today so it's probably about 93. Ah, good. Yeah. We went to a place called Watermark. Wow, John, what a great restaurant. They've got food in this town. I had antelope. Nice. Yeah, and I thought antelope was only from Africa. No. Yeah, well, what do I know?

1:02:25 But they actually make it in uh... or they shoot it in most of the local zoos. Yeah, it was from the Jackson Mississippi Zoo is where this antelope came from. And then we had ice cream and uh... this it was chocolate ice cream with harissa on it. Do you know what harissa is? I should know but I don't. Yeah, harissa is apparently, it's like the Tunisian, Tunisia they use it like ketchup. They put it on everything. It's essentially, it's like a paste made from red chili peppers, salt covered in olive oil, they throw in some kind of hot peppers in that and the taste on the chocolate was, it's like you eat this chocolate like, whoa what is that? Like you know, like you got a snake bite in the back of your throat.

1:03:13 harissa h a r i s a fancy and i think i'm actually had it yeah i know what it is yes in northern african thing the this their version of what kind of a what kind of a ice cream shops gives you this now this was at the watermark restaurant and they gave us the uh... the chocolate trio for two which sounded very sexual which is why we took it And so it had white chocolate with olives in it, which was another fantastic combination. Little chocolate truffles, and then it had this chocolate kind of souffle, where the chocolate oozed out, and it had that harissa in it. It was great. It was really, really... And we had watermelon margaritas. Wow. Yeah. And boy, we deserved it. It was the most expensive meal we've had on the trip, but it was really, really good.

1:04:01 and uh... then tonight's uh... the big uh... nashville meetup at the big bang uh... jeff smith's crazy piano bar here in nashville that'll start around seven o'clock finger food at the bar unfortunately twenty one over only that's uh... the only kind of downside you can bring the kids we can just say it's a man's on the states and it's really annoying there's a number of states and i think in canada where if you uh... you deserve food you can bring a bit anyone in the twenty one if you deserve there's alcohol served anywhere nearby yeah so they'll they'll be known as a bar technically a bar yeah so it is a bar it's not just technically it's a bar and we're looking forward to seeing a lot of the human resources tonight and then tomorrow we call him jeff smith that's the search search f smith jill i keep thinking he's in florida no no he's here in nashville baby

1:04:50 And, uh, then tomorrow we haul ass, we're driving for eight hours tomorrow to Chicago. Mmm. Yeah. She's a slave driver, man. It's like, I'm like, eh, let's just hang. No. No! We gotta move! We gotta keep going! Rrr! Rrr! Rrr! No sex for you! Drive! Let's take a look at the weather in Chicago. Yeah. Please let it not be 110 with 70% humidity. Please. No, it's usually more like 90 with 100% humidity, which is actually worse. Unbelievable. It's actually, right now it's 80 degrees. It's not bad. Oh, that's good. That's nice. That's a plus. That's nice. Yeah.

1:05:38 So, I just have one, I want to let you go on for a bit, but I have, you know, it's so typical. We have this big crisis, Government in Crisis Season 1 and the finale, and of course all the media is focused on that, so it takes a couple days for any news reporting or anything to come through or any good videos or clips or anything. And so now of course it's all hitting and I just found so much amazing stuff. There was a, I always watch the State Department's website. And they had this guy on, this shill, who is the State Department's representative in Libya. So of course we know that, I guess we're still bombing Libya, I don't know, it's days not weeks. It's now been, what has it been John, four months?

1:06:23 We're moving into our fifth month? Headed toward the fifth month. Headed toward the fifth month. That's a lot of days. Yes. We know that, well it's technically days. We know that the European Union has opened up an office. We know that they have their flag flying in Benghazi. I couldn't believe this guy. How long do you think the State Department guy has been in Benghazi? A week or a year. Well let's have a listen to his little report here. Come on, shill. What the hell is this? I hate it when this happens. Come on, play. I set up this whole thing just for this douchebag. Hello, good afternoon. I'm Chris Stevens. I got in from Benghazi a couple of days ago. I'm in town for consultations in the department. Just briefly, I'll say a few words at the top. I've been in Benghazi for about four months now. We got there April 5th.

1:07:27 It was difficult to get in there at the time. There weren't any... Now wait a minute, how does this work? We didn't even start bombing until March 25th? Yeah, he got there right away. He was... it was... it's his boots on the ground from day one almost! And he's just like, yeah, I've been in Benghazi for four months, you know, no big deal. I've been around. ...flights, so we came in by a Greek cargo ship and unloaded our gear and our cars and set up our office there. So, we've been on the ground since then. My mandate was to go out and meet as many of the leadership as I could in the TNC. They've got their council which is sort of their legislature and they've got a sort of a cabinet. So, I've met just about everybody in those two institutions and then I've gone around

1:08:20 with our small team and tried to get to know other people in the society there. Of course we operate in eastern Libya, not the part that Qaddafi controls. The immediate concern when we got there was that Qaddafi's forces had almost infiltrated and taken over Benghazi but were pushed out by NATO. So there you go. I think these guys, we are so spot on with this. They really thought it'd be like we shoot a couple of hellfires at this guy. You know, we just get, hey, set up the office, it'll be over in a couple of days, don't worry about it, we'll take care of you. The TNC, the transnational, which everyone's confusing with transitional. This guy even does it later. It's the transnational council.

1:09:13 You know, those guys got all the oil there, they got the central bank set up. It was a takeover from day one. It had nothing to do with raping people, killing people, anything like that. The whole thing is a total bogus scam and this guy's just saying it like it's the most normal thing in the world. Yeah, we've just been there, yeah. He actually goes on to talk about... That's because nobody's covering any of this. They don't... The government people, that's what's great about our show. Everybody can just say it, tell it like it is, except for us and maybe a few other people. Nobody covers it. Nobody cares. France just gave the Libyan rebels $259 million of the frozen Qaddafi funds. This is what they're after, of course, and the guy talks about it. I don't want to play... You can get the clip at 327.na.shownotes.com. They're just waiting for the funds to be unfrozen.

1:10:01 in the US and they'll send him a billion dollars just one billion you know we gotta keep the other 32 of the 33 we stole it's just it's I'm just blown away I'm blown away by how cavalier these guys are and a guy looks like a dick you're not really yeah no I'm not you're not really blown away I'm not really blown away what else is new just crazy well you can do uh If you want to be blown away, you can play the clip I have here. I hate to play it, but I'm going to do it anyway. The breaking news for Adam. Oh my goodness. Do I need a jingle to set that up? Or is it a real news? No. Okay, hold on a second. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time now for breaking news for Adam. Thank you very much, John. Good evening, everybody. Breaking news tonight. The ratings agency Moody's tonight confirming the triple A rating of U.S. Treasury bonds.

1:10:52 and in so doing confirming what we've reported here for weeks that the United States did not have to default and Moody's and S&P would not downgrade US debt despite those agencies posturing and Treasury Secretary Geithner's fear-mongering. That's right everybody, it's breaking news now we go over to China. Guan heads up Dagong, China's only independent international credit rating agency. While the big three, Moody's, Fitch, Standard & Poor's, Watch and Wait Doug Gong has already downgraded the US once last November and now on the back of the debt crisis one says he's marking America down again. There you go. Yeah, I know. That's an agent by the way nobody pays any attention to that. Of course not. As a matter of fact if you play the PBS gets befuddled by the interest rates you can see what really the real reason and actually what's really going on which is that our Treasury bonds are in huge demand.

1:11:51 has actually dropped. So you mean that while there was all this terror about the bond vigilantes demanding a higher interest rate in order to lend us money, the interest rate kept going down? A lot of that was completely removed from the reality of what actually happened in the market. The market essentially said, excuse my French, but you're full of it. In fact, ever since the Ratings Agency Standard and Poor's first signaled it might downgrade U.S. debt back in the spring, interest rates have been doing anything but follow the script. Going back to April 19, when those rating threat announcements came out, as you can see,

1:12:41 the interest rate just went lower and lower and lower and lower. And so, what explains a plummeting of interest rates when everybody, almost everybody, including, I remember, the Financial Times, certainly the New York Times, was warning that the interest rate was going to go in exactly the opposite direction? So, John, help me understand. First of all, so far, I am wrong. But standards and poor still reserve the right to downgrade. Now you say they never will unless they want to do the head. So I'm willing to accept defeat. I'd like to understand a little better because I'm reading Bloomberg right now. Stocks tumble, there's a big drop on the Dow today, as two-year treasury yield drops to low.

1:11:51 has actually dropped. So you mean that while there was all this terror about the bond vigilantes demanding a higher interest rate in order to lend us money, the interest rate kept going down? A lot of that was completely removed from the reality of what actually happened in the market. The market essentially said, excuse my French, but you're full of it. In fact, ever since the Ratings Agency Standard and Poor's first signaled it might downgrade U.S. debt back in the spring, interest rates have been doing anything but follow the script.

So, John, help me understand. First of all, so far, I am wrong. But standards and poor still reserve the right to downgrade. Now you say they never will unless they want to do the head. So I'm willing to accept defeat. I'd like to understand a little better because I'm reading Bloomberg right now. Stocks tumble, there's a big drop on the Dow today, as two-year treasury yield drops to low.

1:13:27 So, just so I understand, the way it works is when people want, and this is what I don't understand the supply and demand part, when people really want our bonds, then the interest rates drop on those? Is that how it works? Well, it's only because the bond is a fixed interest rate for a certain dollar amount. So, the bond says it's a hundred dollar bond and say, I'm just going to throw some numbers out. A hundred dollar bond say gives off a 10% interest, which is not what it does, but I'm just going to explain it. And so, if demand for this bond goes up because people want a safe haven and it starts trading because it's like a stock, it starts trading at $110, then the interest rate, since it's still a fixed amount of $10,

1:14:10 The $10 on $110 is less. So when the thing goes to $200, then the interest rate would be effectively 5%. So as demand goes up, interest goes down on those bonds. But why is this happening? Well, they said, I didn't want to play through the whole clip, but that guy from this trader that was on PBS explained that he believes that the debt crisis in the EU, which I have a funny clip about, which is causing nothing but hand-wringing and the potential for the EU to fall apart, to collapse, and the Middle Eastern, all the activity in the Middle East which is causing dislocations. All this, you know, the kind of craziness that's going on around the world makes people very conservative

1:15:00 And so then they start putting their money in what they look around and say what is the safest thing we can invest in and they still believe it's the US Treasury. And, and... Gold. Today. Yes, and gold. Actually gold is the other one. But there's both of them. $1,656, John. You gave a sell indicator I believe around $1,000. No, I don't think so. Yeah, it was certainly twelve hundred maybe eleven. Whatever it was I think it's a now's the time but anyway No, it's good. It's gonna go to two thousand you watch I'm gonna be keeling over from wealth from my one gold coin. Hey, I gave you a gold coin Yeah, it's almost doubled in value and it certainly has

1:15:42 So I'm going to dump it soon. Hey, what's this coin I see for sale on eBay? What's that? Yeah, that was a present. You go to gold traders for these things. So anyway, so that's kind of what's going on and I think this guy's probably correct, which is by creating a bunch of craziness around the world, I think that we have a lot to do with. I think it just encourages people to invest in our bonds because they know they're going to get their money back. They're going to lose their assets. Investing in the Greek bonds, which will give you like a 10% return as opposed to the 3 or 4% you get from the US bond or 2%, I don't know what it is right now, is always a risk because if the Greeks go bankrupt, which can happen any minute, then you lose all your money and nobody wants to do that. Let me ask you another question.

1:16:29 So, because the interest rates didn't follow the script, as we heard in that clip, and of course all of this is scripted, what was the scam? Who was running the scam and who wins? Who was running the scam that would get people to think they were going to lower? I think personally it was an attempt, because I always believe that this goes on a lot in the market where, you know, you have a whole bunch of money you want to put into something. You don't want to move the market by taking it like if you have like, if it's, if it's got like the float is really low, you don't have a lot of stocks out, a lot of shares outstanding. And if you put too much money into it, you're going to push the price up. It's going to draw attention to itself. People are going to see what you're up to or whatever. So one of the ways you go about trying to sneak your money in is to try to try to push the price down through

1:17:17 through misinformation or rumors or gossip or whatever you can do. I think that the rating agencies did a saber-rattling thing to stabilize the demand in such a way that big money, because the people who invest in bonds, you don't, I don't, but people who invest in bonds might be investing for you all you know billions of dollars and they can't afford to run the price up but you know if there's downward pressure it could it will stabilize as they buy in at low right it did that actually has raised the price but it wouldn't it didn't raise the price the way it could have which would have sunk the interest rate down to next to nothing that's my guess I mean I don't know you never know who's behind half of these scams but it's a scape there's an obvious scam because it was a script

1:18:06 So, you said something on the previous show which I'm starting to agree with and it falls under our heading of... So I'm looking at the magic number reports that came in for this week. John, stock tip alerts! Here we go, 33. The first one is the report, Wall Street averts worst slide in 33 years. according to the national business review and then the LA Times has an op-ed by ex-Obama aide Lawrence Summers who I actually kind of respect he says there's a 33 percent chance of a new recession

1:18:51 Now if these aren't stock tips, then I don't know what is. I'm not quite sure what to do with the information, but there's... I don't either, I haven't yet to figure out. You know, it's like, you gotta see the movie, I mentioned it before, which is the Ghost Rider. Yeah, I still haven't seen it. Either that or you should, people should go rant, and I've said this, we've said this before, we haven't mentioned it for a while. Go rant the TV series that was on for one small season, I think there was like 10 episodes or 12 episodes. Oh, Rubicon? Of Rubicon. Rubicon, right. Rubicon and actually the Ghostwriter too, they show how these codes work because if you have a bunch of people that are, you can't be calling, you can't be, say you're giving a stock tip out.

1:19:31 and your look as you're deep in the government have a bunch of bodies that have to get in on this deal you can't be calling them up and then they all by the stock and then somebody traces the phone calls the sdc bust you and everybody else so you gotta find some mechanism to get the word out to you know you secret code right this gets kinda childish like i like i like white smoke for at the vatican for the pope Yeah, it's not that secret, but it's something like that. But anyway, you say 33 and then you have like 33 words into an article or you have the 33rd something. You look on there and it says General Motors or it says Ford or it says something. It means that maybe this is something you should buy or sell. We don't know. We have no idea, but we have been spotting this 33

1:20:15 code for I don't know over two or three years now we have yet to figure out what what it leads to. Well one day we'll figure it out when we have absolutely no money to invest. It'll be too late! You'll be still moved on to some other code. Right now it's definitely still 33 though there's no doubt about it I love it. You want to do your EU thing since I have it queued up? Well which one was that? A chit-chat about the EU? Oh yeah, this was just a little confirmation of some of the beliefs we have on this show that I thought was funny. It was Stuart Varney who's kind of an idiot, but this is pretty funny. Time to get out your pencil, sharpen your list and go shopping, even if we haven't hit the bottom. Okay, now that's interesting because a lot of our viewers will be doing exactly that, but I've got one last wild prediction for you. Yes, yes. That Europe crashes. That the Euro system completely breaks up. What do you think?

1:21:09 I actually said the very same thing when this crisis began way back in 2007 and people thought that I had completely lost my mind. I still believe that we are potentially looking at the breakup of the EU. Don't forget that's a political union, not a financial one and they're finding out that the finances work more effectively than the politics. Keith Fitzgerald. Right. That's not true. The whole thing started as a financial union and then it became political. That's exactly the opposite Yeah, but it's still under pressure. Yeah now just show you how varney is such a bonehead You've got to play this this happened this I was that got up early this morning and I was just I know I know I know I your clips came in at like eight o'clock. I'm like, oh you fall out of bed Did the bolts loosen but so I picked up

1:21:59 I picked up this breaking news today and it's just an eye roller and you have to especially since you're floating around Texas and Mississippi. You have to really think this is very funny how panicked they are but this is a British guy reporting this breaking news and then he goes back to a story about Alex Rodriguez the baseball player and then of course he doesn't remember his name. He thinks is mr A rod and he just falls apart at the end of this little report But he interrupts with breaking news and just tell me that this isn't making cringe for one second We'll get your response in one second. I've got breaking news. I can't serious stuff down at Virginia Tech

1:22:34 A person with a gun has been reported on campus. Remember that 2007? There was a mass shooting at precisely that location, Virginia Tech. Alright, a person with a gun has been reported on campus, Virginia Tech, lockdown. Everyone's been told to stay inside, please. that's happening now uh... i broke into a furious discussion care about the legitimacy of suspending and mister able to use the alexa ronald riggs okay suspending him yeah that is kind of funny a gun a individual a guy i think i'm richmond high which is down the road for me and i can't they took all the kids out of that school i could find at least five kids with a gun man

1:23:22 You know what Miss Mickey said? She said if we move to Austin, Texas, then she wants matching guns for our wedding. You know, the gold-plated guns. I love the Dutch. This is typical. Some European comes over here and they have all this anti-gun stuff and then they move to Texas and immediately they get armed to the teeth. She's not anti-gun at all. No, she's not anti-gun. No, she wants the gold-plated, you know, the two in a box. Yeah, honey, I'll get you that no problem with a pearl handle with a pearl handle mother of pearl handle and a laser sight All right. Meanwhile funny report from Israel where the slaves are revolting Because they're starving to death there in the desert and this has kind of been on the radar for a while but now finally a couple hundred thousand people took to the streets and they're camping out in tents very much like Spain and

1:24:18 But listen to this report, and it's very funny because this of course happened, the Arab Spring Movement, which we know is completely created by techno-experts primarily working for the State Department, which Hillary Clinton comes right out and says, we're just training them in social networking. It's the Arab Spring. So that's the fake movement. This one is real. As you hear in this clip, which is pretty funny. of childcare, they're basically saying that in this very expensive country they can no longer afford to live. Some people have compared the protests, more than a hundred thousand people here in Israel, of course to the Arab Spring and that isn't really true. It is... That isn't really true as we know because I'm well informed that that's all fake!

1:25:17 So why isn't that true? Why isn't it inspired by Arab Spring, you douche? Perhaps true that many Israelis have taken inspiration from what can be achieved when people go out onto the streets, but the demands of Israelis in Tel Aviv, Netanya and Jerusalem and other cities are very different of course to those demands from people in Egypt and Libya and Syria. these are middle-class Israelis complaining vociferously about the disparities in incomes. Those many few Israelis on very high salaries compared to the vast majority of Israelis who earn actually very low salaries but have middle-class Western aspirations. And I think the government has only now started to respond to some of those demands. So I think this whole thing is backfiring on them. Because of course people in Israel are going, hey, our neighbors over there, they got something done.

1:26:05 Why don't we try that? And of course this is not in the script. Yeah, I never thought of the backfiring concept, but I think you're probably right. Because this whole thing was phonied up in the other places. And of course when it happened in places they didn't want it to happen, like where was it, Bahrain or wherever, they put the kibosh on it real quick, but they can't do that in Israel. You can't, you know, the US can't bring in the Saudi troops. No, no, no. In Israel to stop these people. Hey, send a couple of drones over there, Obama. Yeah, wait until they start clobbering these people. Do you think that we'll have Anderson Cooper standing there and saying, oh, the Israeli government is killing people, people just want democracy? No, it's not going to happen. This story's actually been suppressed. Oh, totally. Because we can't have like civilized people, air quotes, rioting on TV.

1:27:01 And they're quiet, but you gotta be careful. I mean, I think if you really start a ruckus in Israel, I think they kick your ass real quick. Well, if you got that many people, you can get away with it. But you're talking about suppressed stories, by the way. There's one happening up in Port Angeles. You know, the US has loaded up all our borders with Canada, with all these extra people, and they're putting an 8-lane thing in Vermont, which is kind of scandalous in some places. It used to be a one-lane road that went from some town in Vermont to Canada, building a big 8-lane superhighway there. But the trucks, the trucks...

1:27:37 So they could, well it's not actually, they're never getting, no, they're still not, they're getting two people a day going through this one border stop. It's just a government boondoggle. It's just a bunch of money to hire more people for the secret police, for TSA. So some kid that works for the border patrol up under Homeland Security up in Port Angeles spilled the beans. He says, it's a local story in the Port Angeles Peninsula Daily News. You won't find it anyplace else. AP refuses to pick it up. Nobody picks it up. You can go to peninsula daily news.com and you can probably trace the story. The kid comes out. He says, look, we've got nothing to do. We sit around in these new offices they built for us. There's nothing going on. They phony up overtime.

1:28:20 to make it look like we're doing something but we take the overtime and then we don't do anything we just sit around on overtime on the government dole and so he blows the lid off this by the way which is to me I've never seen a government very rarely is a government employee turn his nose at free money. Yeah free cash we don't. We don't. When I worked for the guy, you know, it's the way it is. When you were a union organizer. Exactly. So they finally fire the guy and then there's a little local stink so they reinstate him and now it's kind of a scandal but luckily they're keeping a lid on it because they don't want this to get out of control. So the government... Ixnay on the Amskay, dude.

1:29:00 So everybody is shutting up, is starting to shut down now and it's just like the whole thing is like why isn't the media, you know, anybody in the big mainstream media can have a field day with this guy. But nah, forget it. Nah. I mean it's ridiculous how little... We don't get, we get nothing. No, we get zero. In fact, I'm surprised the local paper even picked it up. Well, it's something that was really big and that as an aviator it just tickled me, tickled me pink. was this story from Nicholas Schmidl. Now, and I defy anyone to find an actual biography of Nicholas Schmidl beyond

1:29:41 uh... this which is he speaks for doing persian as work throughout south and central asia as well as africa in europe mister schmidl has appeared on npr cnn bbc and a bc to discuss terrorism al-qaeda and the taliban he's a resident of washington dc and a graduate of james madison university and american university so this guy is obviously spook he writes in new yorker magazine a tom clancy novel about how they got the allotted I mean, I s- oh, did you read this thing? No, but I'm gonna go read it immediately. Oh, you have to read it. Here's a little audio of a video report and then I want to pull apart a couple pieces of this writing. Well, if a real page turner, this account- A real page turner. Right there it says a real page turner. Of course we have to put into your mind that this was a real operation, that we got the real Osama, Osama, whatever his name is.

1:30:34 advertising is based on interviews with officers who are intimately familiar with the mission we're getting new information about how the seals fought their way through that compound and about the critical moment when they entered Osama bin Laden's bedroom Less than 18 minutes into the 38 minute raid came the crucial moment. Navy SEALs had fought their way through Osama Bin Laden's compound, killed his courier, the courier's brother and Bin Laden's son. They blasted through cage-like metal gates on the stairways. As a small team of SEALs reached the third floor, one of them turned to his right. individual poking his head out of the door. Tall individual with a fist-length beard. The seal, says Nicholas Schmidl, instantly sensed that was Bin Laden. Kill it! Schmidl's article in the New Yorker magazine presents nuanced, riveting new details of the Bin Laden raid. He bases his reporting on sourced conversations with special operations officers who had intimate knowledge of the raid. It's great! Hold on, this is great!

1:31:31 Schmidl says he did not speak directly with SEALs who carried out the mission. The SEALs' identities are classified. Some of this detail had already been reported by CNN. Schmidl writes that when the seals rushed down the hall and into that room, two of Bin Laden's wives had placed themselves between the seals and Bin Laden. Newly reported by Schmidl, an account of how the first seal into the room had to act in a split second when he encountered Bin Laden's youngest wife, Amal. Amal is yelling hysterically. This is Schmidl. He begins to approach the first seal. And the concern is that they're wearing suicide explosive vests. And so he shoots Amal once in the calf to disable her, and then proceeds to grab Amal and the other woman, wrap them in a bear hug, and turn his back to the seals and sort of push them off to the side. And he holds them? Why does he do that? He holds them so that if they explode and they blow up, that he'll soak up the impact of that blast and sort of the mission can then go on behind him. He knows he'll die.

1:32:24 in the process. Die! There were no suicide vests on the women. Then a second SEAL moved into the room, according to Schmidl, raised his M4 rifle, trained an infrared laser on Osama Bin Laden's chest. Is there anything said at that moment? There's nothing said. I asked and asked and asked. I kind of wondered whether there was some sort of dirty, hairy moment and there just simply wasn't. It was all split second. Shoots Bin Laden once in the chest and then Bin Laden begins falling back and shoots him once above the left eye. Bin Laden falls down and he He says on the radio, you know for God and country Geronimo Geronimo Geronimo Geronimo the code word for the Geronimo Geronimo Geronimo, so I read this thing I'm John so well, here's what happened. Okay. I asked you to stop for a second. Mm-hmm

1:33:09 this took place after midnight right? Yeah. And they were actually thinking, I think this is bogus by the way, they're actually thinking that somebody's gonna be wearing a suicide vest to bed. Hey honey can you scratch my back? Baloom! Come on! Let me set the alarm. That's not the alarm! This whole article, so he, this guy, this Nicholas Schmidl, who I cannot find, he has no history, none. You can't, find it please. I looked for an hour. Google not helpful. So he's been scrubbed from Google, his wiki page has nothing on it except the same bio he has on his nicholashmidl.com website. But from his, so he got hired to write this.

1:33:57 Because of course we have to you know, we have to dramatize it and make it great for the stupid slaves who believe this stuff Here it is. He's taught so of course my interest is is peaked when they talk about the chopper pilot So here it is. He wore a noise-canceling headset Which blocked out nearly everything besides his heartbeat now I've been in military helicopters What does it have like a Bose headset? No. Alright, alright, okay. But as the pilot passed over the compound, pulled into a high hover and began lowering the aircraft, he felt the Blackhawk getting away from him. He sensed they were going to crash. And it goes on a little bit. And here's this, my favorite.

1:34:41 Secretary of State Hillary Clinton followed him, as did everyone else who could fit into the office. On the office's modestly sized LCD screen, Kilo One, grainy in black and white, appeared above the compound, then promptly ran into trouble. Now wait a minute! They're landing two, they got two helicopters, they want to fast repel the SEALs down them. But somehow they have a camera on the ground which is, I guess they got a crew, a camera crew on the ground shooting pictures of Hilo 1. Yeah, a B-roll. Yeah, a B-roll, exactly! When the helicopter began getting away from the pilot, he pulled back on the cyclic, which controls the pitch of the rotor blades, only to find the craft unresponsive. The high walls of the compound and the warm temperatures had caused the Black Hawk to descend inside its own rotor wash, a hazardous aerodynamic situation known as settling with power. Now, stop, lie, bullcrap, get out of here!

1:35:43 Settling with power is often misused as a term for vortex ring state. And without getting into all of the details of it, if he indeed got into vortex ring state, it was not necessarily caused by high temperature and by an enclosed compound. The way you get into vortex ring state is you descend too quickly for your forward airspeed. I know because it's an essential part of the training how not to die when learning how to fly a helicopter. So, the only thing I can think that happened is he either had an engine failure or he was too loaded up because apparently this Blackhawk had skins on it. This is something new. Skins that made it stealthy.

1:36:31 And there was just too much crap hanging off of this thing. He didn't have enough power and the thing just started to float down so he decided to crash it into the wall. But it just shows you that this whole thing, and by the way this is almost lifted directly from other reports, this Nicholas Schmidl guy is a total shill, a douche nozzle, and it's despicable how they've hired this guy with no history Other than more articles like this to write a Tom Clancy novel. And you have to read it. He wore a noise-canceling headset which blocked out nearly everything besides his heartbeat. What a crock. That's a good one. And Hillary is watching on the grainy, modestly sized LCD screen, grainy black and white, as the Helo One appeared above the compound. This is... that makes no sense.

1:37:27 And by the way, why don't you release that B-roll? That would be great. So they had a camera crew on the ground apparently. Yes, well it sounds like to me. Or a guy with a helmet cam who's just looking up. Come on in, you know what? It's total bullcrap. Planning and executing the mission to get Bin Laden, courtesy of the New Yorker. Unbelievable. And there's all stuff in there like, they talk about how they chucked his body overboard. It literally says in the article. Who says, you know, they gave him his Muslim rights and threw him overboard. They didn't like let him slide off a plane. One, two, three. They sail like a drunken sailor. They get two guys holding arms and legs and swinging back and forth. That's what it reads like. They just chucked him overboard. Hey, there you go, good riddance to ya. Hilarious. Here it is. I'll read it to you. I'll read it to you.

1:38:25 All along, the SEALs had planned to dump Bin Laden's corpse into the sea, a blunt way of ending the Bin Laden myth. Wow, thank you. They had successfully pulled off a similar scheme before during a DevGru helicopter raid inside Somalia in September 2009. SEALs had killed Saleh Ali Saleh Naban, one of East Africa's top Al Qaeda leaders. Naban's corpse was then flown to a ship in the Indian Ocean, given proper Muslim rights and thrown overboard. Ha ha! Fantastic. Ministry of Truth, you stunned me. Well the problem is if they just shut up. Yeah, we had forgotten about it. Yeah. And now they're back on it, idiots. Yeah, very poorly done. Poorly executed. Yeah, but a good read. It's a real page turner. Please. Now wait, let's go back to my question. Where did you get this clip? CNN. Oh, brother. Yeah, of course, CNN. They have exclusive access to the guy.

1:39:26 But please find me a history. Is CNN the same CNN that fell for that hoax about Microsoft Internet Explorer users are dumb? Well they are. See that one that took place last week? This is a big deal. I don't think I, I think I was... You missed this one. Okay let me just explain it real quickly. Okay. Somebody, some phony baloney research company, by the way I thought you'd pick up on this because this is a bit where you can say... I actually saw it and I was like, ugh, really? Yeah, we could have used it to show how PR companies make the news, but go ahead. Yeah, but this was just a hoax. It turned out to be a complete hoax.

1:40:02 There was no report. There was no study. There was nothing but they said it out there and then CNN and a bunch of British newspapers picked it up right away because everybody wants to believe that anything's got any do they hate Microsoft? It's just wishful thinking. Yeah, and so they all ran with the story and it turned out to be a bunch of bullcrap that you know people with it that use ie have a lower IQ It's funny But it's like, you know, these kinds of things that just that CNN was one of the people that bought it hook line and sinker idiots No wonder their ratings are down. They don't have any they don't do the right thing. They don't play along with the right script They're dumb. They're dumb people who are on CNN are dumb Don Lemon. You're dumb. Yeah, they're dumb I got something here for you. Meanwhile on the British the British media because I took this clip by the way from Jon Stewart. You took a quick trip to London while we were driving?

1:41:00 I wish. I lifted this clip from Jon Stewart who was burnt by the fact that the British cut out one of his bits when they took the show into Europe. Yeah, because it disparages somebody or something like that? No, it's because apparently it's against the law in England to use any footage from Parliament on a comedy show or as a satire. What's the clip? So the clip is the poo clip. So he's ridiculing them. It's all I have is just a clip. There's nothing no nothing with Stewart in it But I just thought this was hilarious because this

1:41:35 kind of represents what you get on British TV. Having opened up her heart to Gillian, I'm afraid it's Laura's bowels that are next on the list. She needs a poo sample. If you switch to fresh fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, seeds, nuts, legumes, seaweeds, you will produce a completely different poo. One that is aromatic. Wait a minute. I thought all poo was aromatic. But it's completely differently aromatic. You know the phrase, his shit don't stink. Well there you go. So do the British use the word poo a lot? Yeah they do. Poo. Poo. Poo. Poo. Well what is it? How can we change the smell of my poo?

1:42:23 You have you she gives you the list of things to eat. Oh like what something good? Well legumes nuts All the good stuff and seaweed and you smell like what? aromatic whatever like a whale Ed Sullivan from the New York Times cracked me up. The federal government has suspended a wildlife biologist whose sighting of dead polar bears in Arctic waters became a rallying point for campaigners of global warming, seeking to blunt the impact. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Regulation and Enforcement notified Charles Munnett

1:43:06 I guess it's Monnet. On July 18th, he'd been placed on administrative leave pending an internal investigation into quote integrity issues according to a copy of a letter posted online by public employees for environmental responsibility. So I guess this guy was out there saying the polar bears are dying! They're dying! And it wasn't true. Well we know for a fact that the polar bear population is actually increased growing yeah since the global warming scandal began. So there you go. Of course this is not... I mean, it should be... Anderson Pooper should be all over this. Keepin' him honest!

1:43:44 Oh, no. Oh, no. No, we shan't do that. That would be a really so I was watching the Japanese news And they're actually keeping up with in the nuke, you know the thing it is, you know This is the net talk about under under reported Did you know that the amount of radiation coming off that thing today is worse than ever? I've heard that Yeah, I don't know if it's a clip and you can catch up to the what's going on. I You got to help me. The newest news about Japanese nuke facility. Yeah, it's like if you walk there you die in like three seconds or something. The operator of the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power plant says it has detected 10,000 millisieverts of radioactivity per hour at the site. It's the highest level since a nuclear accident in March.

1:44:33 Workers of Tokyo Electric Power Company or TEPCO measured the amount on Monday near the pipes at the bottom of a duct between the number one and the neighboring number two reactor buildings. TEPCO has restricted access to the site and the surrounding area. It says the workers who took the reading were exposed to a maximum of four millisieverts. The utility says the high level is because the pipes were used to vent air containing radioactive substances from the crippled No. 1 reactor on March 12th. It also detected a maximum of 1,000 millisieverts per hour outside in the debris as well as a maximum of 4,000 millisieverts per hour inside one of the reactor buildings. According to the science ministry, a human exposed to 10,000 millisieverts would likely die within a week or two. Now, TEPCO also says

1:45:22 also says that it has discovered about 700 tons of highly radioactive water on Saturday in the basement of an on-site building near the storage facility for contaminated water. It says the water contained 19,000 becquerels of radioactive cesium-134 per cubic centimeter and 22,000 becquerels of cesium-137, both very high levels. The utility is investigating how the leak happened, but it says that there is no danger of the contaminated water leaking out of the building. So you know what I think? No, these guys. I love them. I think these guys have been exposed.

1:46:01 I bet you their poop smells good. Yeah, I bet it smells... yeah, they glow too, which is really cool. Yeah, they glow in the dark. We do have a few donors for this week's episode. Michael Miller, Sir Michael Miller of Tiburon, Hot Pockets Tour Gas Money, good for 33, 330 miles, and swimming the Dutchess gets 7 miles to the gallon. What are you getting by the way? 9.

Christopher Lawton in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, nuts. $50. John and Adam, I've been listening to the show about a year or so, I thought I'd celebrate the anniversary with a donation, hopefully with more to come. In return, I'd appreciate some karma for my second interview for a new job on Monday. You've got karma. It's been working for a six form college readers and can't wait to get the hell out of there. What is a six form college? I don't know.

1:51:37 Joseph Costello, 50 bucks from Pittston, Pennsylvania. Couldn't make the big bash in Chicago, so I'm sending a birthday shout out to President Obama and my ticket money. Yeah. Hey, we'll get Barack Obama on the list. No, he's on the list. Trust me. Somebody paid. And my ticket money and some karma to Adam and Mickey so the black helicopters don't find the Hot Pockets mobile and finally Robert Dearden. uh... the whole book in new jersey another fifty dollars on a thank everybody who donated this uh... weekend that we hope to continue this with the mission of the agenda show dot com to work dot org slash any channel of or act dot com slash any and no agenda nation dot com and help us out for the next show which is coming up on sunday we've been on the line on the sun's ash and i'm sorry i stepped on you what you say we've been kind of what the mccann light on sundays and the united people are this weird it's weird yes and is not uh...

1:52:30 Not so good. But we do this program with great love. Miss Mickey and I, still together, I think. Yep, we're still together. And that's part of our service to you is this No Agenda Hot Pockets 2008 tour around the United States. I have to say, We're gonna have to do a 2009 tour. There's no way we can hit anywhere we wanted to I mean that we're basically doing about 45% of the US and you know what the problem is you already miscalculated is the show prep days I need a full day stationary

1:53:11 In a spot with connectivity in order to prep for the next day. So it's a problem. It's a huge problem So we basically it's like Nashville. We got here Tuesday night all day Wednesday to think about how it eats into the schedule all day Wednesday, I'm prepping we have the show which of course, you know by the time I'm done It'll be two o'clock after everything has been uploaded. What time is it now? It's already it's already one Yeah, so it'll be two thirty three o'clock Then we have the meetup tonight, and then tomorrow morning we get up the crack of dawn, hungover, and then we drive for eight hours to get up north. It is no way. If it was just us driving by and waving at everybody, yeah, we could do a lot.

1:53:51 But the show who yourself to pull over to do the show that's the problem. That's the problem Yeah, the problem. So yeah, no, it's a grind and I'm sure that you're suffering for it I would encourage people to you know, encourage this because it personally I would and I want to say this to the audience I'd like to get the donations up a little bit because I would like to just see Adam on the road constantly all year No, this is not a good idea. This is not a good idea. I think it'd be great for the people out there. I'd love to see you. By the way, I want to mention something when people think about the donation model we have.

1:54:27 pbs i don't know if you've noticed this but pbs tv they have decided and they've done is on a couple shows already experimenting they interrupt the show in the middle now and start running ads here every fifteen minutes middle of the show every fifteen minutes i don't like the you know i think the right just like real ministry of truth stuff i know it's it's despicable and we we don't interrupt the show for ads can you imagine right in the middle of something so i go hold on a second We'll tell you how you can change the smell of your poop right after this. I mean, think about how disruptive that would be.

1:55:04 Yeah, I mean we do it is we do a donation break, but we but do we make it entertaining we talk about other things like you know the fact that you know you look you just love being on the road and That kind of thing Anyway, I just love it John. It's so great. I've worked out or where you look happy You got a smile on your face and all the pictures Mickey takes yeah, well she got over the coat hanger in your mouth I'm not sure yeah, that's the pictures Mickey selects is what you mean? I By the way, can you wear something other than... Do you wear anything but a grey t-shirt? That same grey t-shirt? Wash that thing! It must stink to high heaven by now. So let me... Excuse me. Let me tell you about RV life with a woman. So here's how it works. We have no storage space. The storage space in the RV is for hoses and wires and stuff to connect. You know, poop tubes, all that stuff.

1:55:57 Then we have inside, we have two closets. Little mini, like a cabinet. It's where you store your dishware, your flatware. That's where our clothes hang. And then there's a spot where I have the gear. So, Miss Mickey has three dresses and I have a t-shirt! Oh, come on! I have a lot of great t-shirts. Did you see my Katy Perry bath towel though? That was kind of hot, wasn't it? You were, I thought you were wearing a dress. so i'm looking at the pictures and there's a picture of you wearing a dress sitting at the uh... i'm thinking this guy is flipped well here's what happened is like joshua's uh... and his girlfriend or wife fiancee whatever advertising they came over to take this picture but it was right after the show in austin i was so hot and i i i ran back to and by the way burn my feet because i had no shoes on just trying to keep cool in the rv with no air conditioning because uh... you know the because the the power wasn't sufficient

1:56:56 So I'm burning my feet, running to the back of the house, I jump into the pool, then he shows up, hey time to take a picture. So I'm like, okay what am I going to do? I've got this really wet bathing suit and my hair is all flat so I put on the hat and I wrap a towel around me which happened to be Katy Perry. Which I thought was actually one of the better pictures ever taken. The guy took it by the way with a hustle blood. A digital Hasselblad. Oh those things cost a... who is this? Yeah, this is Jeff... well this is what's living in Austin. Our producer. He's got a $40,000 camera. That is one of the most expensive cameras you can even imagine. It costs money to look at one. Yeah, in fact that's where my card got stolen I think.

1:57:40 Anyway, some makeup karma for Phil Flick. I guess we missed that. Phil has a job interview, could really use a little bit of karma, so here comes my friend Phil looking at you. You've got karma. And let me see... Yes, we have... Well, we got a couple of birthdays, so let's roll those out. So I want to say happy 27th birthday to Audrey, that is Black Knight Sir George Vanderhorse's lovely MILF.

1:58:15 She celebrated this past week and she'll remain 27 forever, he says. Then we have Erydderian saying happy birthday to Alina Dederian and Erydderian saying happy birthday to Stephanie Dederian. Scott Respeca, his birthday is 26, is on the 5th, that'll be tomorrow. Sebastian Nilsson congratulates Anna Sustavovskaya, uh... system of the day i know and uh... joseph is still says hello so uh... that's our uh... birthdays

1:59:02 And then we have, uh, we got some, uh, nightings, John, if you, uh, wouldn't be so kind as to put down that rattle you've got. That baby rattle. Let me see if I can... I don't... Oh, there it is, yeah. I thought I didn't hear it for a second there. Lina Dendarian, please step forward and Yaz, who wanted me to call his buddy Tommy out as a douchebag, we just did that in case we hadn't done it earlier. Both of you have now reached the requirements of a knighthood in the No Agenda Roundtable, $1,000 or more. That means extending your ring finger will get you a No Agenda Knight Ring and I hereby pronounce the Sir Yaz and Dame Lina Dendarian, Knight and Dame of the No Agenda

1:59:44 round table please have a seat enjoy your hookers and blow your rent boys and chardonnay and remember you too can become a knight or a dame. Dvorak.org slash N A and we really need that support keep that coming summer months are slow excuse me it's very nice to see New people coming in, couple new donors, that's great. But if you're still enjoying this show on your ever increasing commute as people are driving more and more these days, consider helping us out because this is what we do. Nothing else. I got nothing else going on. It's really what I've noticed. I'm driving around, I'm driving on the road, I'm like...

2:00:25 I got nothing else to do but drive and do the show. How does that work? This is my life. I think it should be your life. I think it'd be fantastic. And we're down to the landing gear of the plane. A lot of people don't know this, but Mickey and I have been eating the plane. We sold it. Yeah, we sold it for, you know, not a lot of money. It's not a good time to be selling boats and planes. So yeah, we're down to the landing gear. Already ate the prop. And we're running out, we're running low, we're living that American dream though of just getting by and I'm quite proud of that. Yeah, just getting by. Just getting by. So time to talk about crop circles, John. Oh no. Oh yes. So this little... Hold on a second. I got another sound effect device I was saving.

2:01:14 This is a very famous device called a vibratone. Musicians know about it. And I think it'd be perfect to be playing in the background. That's very good. That's cool. You're whacking that thing. Nice. Alright, can you shut up? So this little diddy appeared on TV. And there's a couple of things in here that just proved to me now for sure the science is in crop circles are definitely made by aliens. No doubt about it. As this, this, I forget his name, they'll say it in the clip. This scientist, it's the Japanese guy, he does the, he has another book out and he's saying crop circles are made by microwave ovens.

2:02:13 What? This is a new run? Yeah, yeah. He's so... So what's gonna happen is a bunch of scientists are gonna go out and prove not that they can make crop circles with microwave ovens, but they can replicate crop circles. Therefore proving the thesis that crop circles are real. Have a listen to this. The author of Physics of the Future, how science will shape human destiny and our daily lives by the year 2100 I guess. That's right. Mitchell, John's already taken responsibility for a few of these crop circles out there. But what are... He's not talking about you in that case actually. What are the theories? What are the actual theories behind this? Well if you have a stake, rope and a wooden plank and you simply rotate the rope around you can actually create your own crop circle in one hour.

2:03:03 Really? In 1978 that was the first recorded crop circle and two pranksters admitted that they did it and they duplicated for the press in one hour. So this of course is where you're still at John, you're still at the plank and the rope and they show these pictures of these really crappy crop circles nothing like the beautiful geometric shapes. Just be quiet. Okay, just be quiet. This is my moment of proof that crop circles are made by aliens. Now with GPS, lasers, and also with microwave ovens, you can create intricate patterns as detailed as any that you see in science fiction movies. Why would you want to do that?

2:03:41 Well, you know for years UFO buffs have been saying no way can a human create these intricate circles up to 2,000 component prop circle these are these are pretty good. We'll show that video again. I mean, they're complicated Yeah, that's right. And that's why we physicists see this as a challenge It's a challenge. Here comes the challenge, but listen to the words he uses, because words matter. Okay. So, in a few weeks, artists and physicists will be converging near Stonehenge in southern England, and we will try to duplicate exactly what we see in other crop circle patterns. Duplicate. duplicate because they're made by aliens to prove that humans can indeed duplicate these things humans can duplicate humans can duplicate aliens wait a minute you mentioned GPS you also mentioned

2:04:29 A microwave oven? Are you telling me that people are bringing microwave ovens into a corn field? That's right. You get a portable generator. That's right. Hook it up to an extension cord. Take apart your microwave oven and you can actually use that to soften the corn stalks. That's a bad idea. The corn stalks will then bend over very rapidly. And remember, you have to do it overnight. You have to do the whole thing within just a few hours and you have to create these beautiful patterns very rapidly and microwave ovens could be the trick. I have no idea. Michio, are you getting in on this? You're going to Southern England, getting in on the competition? No, I have to teach, right? You have to teach. All right, well, we'll see how that competition goes. Bring you back for maybe some analysis. There you go. So this guy is so stupid.

2:05:11 He's just had to sell his book of course. He's so stupid he's actually suggesting that scientists, smart people are going to go into a cornfield at night with a generator and an exposed microwave oven to make these crop circles. I can't wait. So this is it. This will be the proof. When they make these crop circles that replicate these fantastic geometric shapes made by aliens, when they do this then I'll shut up forever. With a microwave oven. I want nothing in the dark. A generator and a microwave oven. You make that, I'll shut up forever. But it ain't gonna happen. They're real. Okay. Are you done? Yeah. Yeah, of course I'm done. So, uh, well let's see. I'm not gonna argue about this anymore. I've given up. Yeah, you should. Because they're real. Well, they are real. They're real. Their origin is at issue. Have you heard about Prop 19?

2:06:14 Not a recent Prop 19. What is Prop 19? They're bringing it back. The Regulate Control and Tax Cannabis Act. Oh, Prop 19, the Dope Act. Yeah, the Dope Act. They get enough signatures, they're gonna run it again? Yep, they're gonna run it again. Good. Here's what gets me. Let me just say this. It's actually not good, but I'll listen to your pet peeve. Okay, why is it not good? Because Monsanto is now sponsoring the act. What we don't want is Monsanto creating genetically modified seeds of this magical plant. Yeah, that wouldn't be good. I agree with that. And by the way, and that's why I think it'll pass because Monsanto's in on the game now. Well, at least it'll pass. That's a start. Right, but if you read the new act, and I have parts of it, it's talking about, it's regulate and control. So you'll only be able to buy your seeds from Monsanto. No. Yeah.

2:07:16 That's no good. No, of course it's no good. And the marijuana, the hemp plant is a magic. You can burn it, you can put that in your car. You can make clothes. You can smoke it too, which is also nice. I'm reliably informed. Well, he gets me about the first go-round. Here we are at the state of California, the most liberal state in the country with Democrat senators and Democrat-run legislature. Rarely you get a Republican who sneaks in once in a while like a Schwarzenegger. You know, super liberal, and a bunch of Berkleyites talking about legalization. They get the opportunity to legalize marijuana and they vote no. What is wrong with these people? That's my pet peeve of the day. Oh, you want a pet peeve jingle? We can do that here. Bastards. Total bastards, I tell ya. So I have some real news if you want to play the Access Hollywood clip.

2:08:20 And now, back to Real News. John, we have some real news! And it's coming to you from the Grove in California! That's right, in Los Angeles. There we have Gino, whatever his name is. I'm trying to get the clip. That's the extra guy. Yeah, I know. What's his name? His name is Gino, isn't it? Lopez, Mario Lopez. Yeah, Gino Lopez, right. Gino- Oh, my fingers are getting greasy again. Let me try that one again. I didn't feel good about it. And now back to real life. That's right everybody, thank you very much John as we go over to the Grove in Hollywood for Gina Lopez.

2:09:00 Here we go, here we go. Extra, extra. I'm just so devastated and so sad. Gaga's Winehouse emotion. You know, I just think the most unfortunate thing about it all is... As she mourns the loss of Amy, now Lady Gaga reveals who scared her straight. Well, I was so embarrassed. Plus, was Winehouse planning to adopt this child? Aloha, Amiston. Jennifer's Hawaiian getaway with Justin. And where did Angie get very emotional with Brad? Another royal wedding, this one featuring Prince William's Bon Jovi moment. And do you notice something familiar about Kate's look? Did the space invaders really think they stood a chance against Indiana Jones and James Bond? I'm Maria Medunos with the Cowboys and Aliens heroes. We'll be right back. Wow! Who needs gravity? I'm Sean Robinson, and I'm head over heels for a new summer shape-up workout.

2:10:00 Wow, where's Gino? No, that's that's extra. This is access Hollywood. Oh, I messed it up Mario Lopez Gino so the This is this show is this isn't as lively as a tease because they don't have enough that extra extra And this is the royal this show they always have something about the British monarchy on this show. Well, yeah That's who's paying for him They need to keep that up. I find it distressing. I don't think the British monarchy is that interesting and I don't care about these weddings. Well, Pippa is kind of hot. She's got a nice butt. Pippa. So there was some actual news that was interesting. This is McAfee, the guys who infect your computer to then go and disinfect it. You install a virus to detect other viruses.

2:10:55 And McAfee came out with a report, the report called Shady Rat. Did you see the report John? Shady Rat? No, tell me all about it. Shady Rat! Oh, I happen to have a clip. About Shady Rat. It's worth pointing out that Shady Rat, the R-A-T actually stands for Remote Access Tool, but it's a pretty convenient title as well. The attacks go back at least five years and they span the globe and McAfee suggests a state actor could be behind the hacking, but it seems you guys are reticent to point a public finger. Do you know who the state actor is? Well, we're not in the business of attributions, so we're not going to point fingers publicly, but we do believe based on some of the institutions that were impacted, such as the United Nations, such as the Olympic committees, that this had clearly a political as well as an economic purpose, and we believe that one nation state is behind it. And do you know who the nation state is, what you're just unwilling to say?

2:11:54 We're just not in the business of attributions, so while we have our suspicions, we're not going to publicly point fingers. So McAfee apparently gets reports from your computer, I guess. How else do they know? And there was break-ins everywhere, at banks, at companies, the International Olympic Committee, governments, and they say, well it's a state actor. Well yeah, it's Hillary Clinton and her techno-experts who are doing it, that's why he's not saying it. Why doesn't he just come out and say China? No, he's not going to say China, because it's not China, it's the State Department.

2:12:32 But we're not in the business of attribution. That's what he's hinting at when he says state actor. State. State. State. State. State. Because state is... China's not a state. No, they're a country. Yeah. Why didn't he say a country actor? Yeah. Why didn't he say a Hollywood actor? Or a government. He could have said a government. A government. No, he didn't say that. State. State. State. State. It's a little bit of a stretch, but I like it. I'm buying it. Yeah, well, we're not in the business of attribution. Yeah, why doesn't he... We're not in the business of attribution. What the hell is that? I mean, why... Someone should force him to say it. They should. Waterboard McAfee today! Courtesy of no agenda.

2:13:20 Here's something funny I found from Wolf Blitzer. You know how Wolf Blitzer is always talking about his blog? Go read my blog, it's on my blog! Do you think he writes his blog? No That's correct until September 7th. The house is now in recess Senate now is going to go into recess until September 7th So there's gonna be a five-week break go walk that they ran to the airports Reagan National Dulles Baltimore Washington International Airport as quickly as they could get out of died right about this on my blog today at our Situation Room blog. I want you to read it. Let me know what an idiot What a stupid idiot I read this on my blog

2:14:00 he didn't say i'd like to get you can say i blog this today says i read about it on my blog on his blog i was so surprised as they could get out of that i read about this on my blog today i was so amazed it was on my blog that's hilarious i gotta do that i told you is that that is the good that i thought it was a larry is that the fact that i don't know my i thought i i i i like really i mean how stupid can you be to say this I mean seriously. Hey, since we've had a number of sponsors and donors and advertisers, whatever you want to call it, from Down Under, I think it's time once again. Get Monation Down Under. Things are getting rough. Get Monation Down Under. Crikey! I think we're stuffed.

2:14:52 If you think security at international airports is already a hassle, this is what the future looks like. I should probably set this up and say the naked body scanners have come to get my nation down under and they're using the exact same scripts to sell it to the Aussies. The federal transport minister was among the first to give the new full body scanners a try. By the way, he didn't go through either just like janet napolitano he didn't go through he's standing next to it and they have nothing but hot chicks going through this thing i swear to god the whole package the whole news package is good-looking girls

2:15:31 We make no apologies for doing what we can to make security our number one priority. Recently, body scanners in the US were modified so they were no longer able to capture images of passengers' genitals. Anthony Albanese says people here have nothing to worry about. nothing to worry about we're not looking at your junk. The person and any of the features which they may have. Like his huge schlong. Cannot be identified. Except Adam Curry because that man has an elbow on that thing. Either way privacy groups don't like it. These scanners are going to create at some point before you get to a stick figure a genuine naked image of a person.

2:16:16 There's also been concern the scanners could be a health risk. Oh wait, John, what do you think they say about the health risk? What do you think? Oh, it's got the same radiation as your cell phone. It's better than that. Because they expose passengers to radiation. 10,000 times through this system is equivalent to one mobile phone call. Wow. 10,000 times through the system. You thought one time. So does this great news report that you're playing us, does it mention the fact that our own Congress has publicly said that these things have been studied and they don't work? A. And B. Have they ever mentioned that no independent operation has ever looked at these things? Or did they mention any of that in this report? Or that they have to reinforce the floors because otherwise they'll drop down to the basement?

2:17:04 Did they mention any of that? Let's listen. During the trial stages, they'll only be used when passengers set off metal detectors. They'll then be given the option of a scan or a pat-down by security staff. But once fully rolled out, some passengers could be forced into taking a scan. Well, I think it would be less invasive than, like, a full-body pat-down. Totally heart this check. For sure. It may be an inconvenience, but I think it's a good idea. The scanners will be trialled at the Sydney airport. Safety. Yeah, safety. Better to be safe than sorry. Then it's Melbourne's turn next month before a planned national rollout. The trial will cost taxpayers $6 million.

2:17:43 The government says it's a small price to pay to increase passenger safety. Simon Cowan, ABC News. Hey, good job. Wait a second. Wait, wait, I got another question. Yeah. Have planes been dropping out of the sky left and right in Australia and they're being from of terrorists because they're increasing passenger safety? How many, this must be terrible over there what's going on. It's really bad. We've got Taliban, Al Qaeda, Al Shabaab, everything going. It's a big mess. Hmm. Yeah, better be safe than sorry But again, nothing but hot chicks in that video and the one who got the pat down she like moving around her boobs It was like total girl on girl porn this it was great great loved it great get more nation down Things are getting rough get more nation down I think we're stopped

2:18:41 Right on so I caught the end of the rollout of just play the most disgusting show on television. Oh I can only guess what it is. Let me guess do I do I do I say it? Go ahead. Toddlers and tiaras? Yeah, here. This is classic. We can't forget the goodies. Next time I want to be a queen. Oh, thank you. I'm going to put my crown in the cabinet. That's from Miss Serenity. If Serenity says she wants it and until God just tells me, hey, this is just a horrible, bad thing, then I guess we could still do the glitz pageant again. I want a spider crown. I know.

2:19:25 Right now Chloe is definitely on a winning streak. Hopefully we can keep it up. She won cash last weekend and then this weekend she turns around and wins cash in the highest title. So far we're doing pretty good, you know. Thank you! I wanted this crown. Go! If you touch it, it'll bite you. Oh god. Touch it! this is peter bears dream show his horrible well my goodness if you touch it it will buy you a shit-tastic and they have to have to show it and they do a close-up on it so horrible it's the worst and while we're on that in the united kingdom of get my nation east church child protection chief caught with four thousand child porn pictures on his computer his work laptop

2:20:16 He admitted to- Why else would you be in that game? Yeah, he admitted to 12 counts of actually making images when he appeared before magistrates in Plymouth and is likely to face jail when he returns to court. You think? Oh man, it's unbelievable. This is like, who's watching the Watchers? Yeah, well that's your problem. Yeah, it is a huge problem and it's not fun. About a month ago we spoke about, we gotta wrap this up, we spoke about agenda 21 on the show. Yes. And we did this when a small executive order slipped under the radar. Oops, hold on, who could be calling me tonight? Who is calling me? I can't talk to you right now. Tell him to hang up. Yeah, well I just hung up on him. Someone who doesn't care about the show.

2:21:06 Uh, agenda... Seriously. That's your daughter. No, it's Super Agent Matthew Lesher calling about getting more Playboy bunnies on the app show. Let's see what I have, let's see the sacrifices I make for this show. That thing is nuts. I like the slide whistle better honestly even though these other things are very random Yeah, but the slide whistle as a little more a little more. Yeah, I'm getting good at it I'm getting me. I'm gonna be able to play a little tune. Yeah, the last show was really good You put some emotion into it. I think I think you might be able to win a Grammy It was

2:21:45 Okay, so Agenda 21 is a United Nations initiative, very much like the Codex Alimentarius. And the President, by executive order, formed this Agricultural and Agricultural Community Committee, which consisted of Department of Homeland Security and little Timmy Geithner and every douchebag is on it. And this, of course, is to kill small towns, farmers, etc. And I have the proof here from another local Texas report. This is just the first step. Now, John, you've been a lot of things. When I was a youngster, before we moved to Amsterdam, we lived in a small farming village south of Amsterdam. And by the way, the line is when I was a kid. Yeah, when I was... I like youngster. Yeah, you can't say when I was a kid. No, when I was a youngster.

2:22:37 We'd go out and we'd help out, right? We'd get paid and we'd do stuff like drive the tractor. Now isn't this kind of like the most American thing you can do? John, you'll agree with me. Why do you have kids? Why? Yeah, why do we have kids? So they help us around the house. Yeah, so they can help out, exactly. So they can work. Yeah, you want to put them to work as soon as you can. That's right. And if you're on a farm, you have kids and what do you make the kids do? Work! Drive the tractor. Oh no, oh no, that's not gonna happen. Ray LaHood is also on this committee. He's stopping this. What? Oh yeah. This will... You know, a farm is what the kids do. No. So they learn...

2:23:24 Not anymore! For as long as most can remember, it's been the first step, the initiation, into working the family farm. But it could one day be a thing of the past. Discussions are underway in Washington to require operators of farm equipment to have a commercial driver's license. What? Many worry such a step would put the family farm in peril. The vast majority of our farms are family farms. Operators of equipment are usually family members. And if that were to take place, that would eliminate some of the family participation in the farm operation. On his farm just outside the town of McGregor, Rodney Smallreedy grew up helping his dad. His son has grown up the same way. And with farmers facing tougher times than ever, Smallreedy is glad for the help. Right now I've got my young son, he's 11 years old, he can drive that tractor like a pro.

2:24:21 and my dad who will be 80 this year. Well, my dad's not going to get a CDL to drive a tractor. That's not going to happen. And my 11-year-old son, well I'm going to have to wait, what, 10 years before he will be old enough to qualify to get a CDL. And I've got to have their help. Concerned with the amount of farm equipment making short hops between fields, the new requirements would subject farmers to the same rules governing truck drivers, requiring them to keep long. This is on private property. When did the government take over the farms? When this executive order got signed! Listen again to this last bit. Same rules governing truck drivers, requiring them to keep laws and limit their hours, and the prospect of replacing family help with expensive professional drivers, an idea that for many is just absurd. So can you believe that? What? Are you kidding me? This should have been at the beginning of the show. No man, I like to end strong.

2:25:23 That is unbelievable. This is all up in the day. This is all Agenda 21. This is how it starts. You can't have your kids drive your tractor. They gotta keep logs. This is a scandal. Where did you get that clip? It's a local Texas clip. One of the... where did I find it? I know, no one sent it to me, I found it somewhere. That should be on the nightly news and they should be hounding the government about this. No, the government is telling you to shut up, slave. We've got crisis in the government. Crisis, crisis, crisis, crisis, terror, al-Qaeda, ugh, eugh, eugh. Meanwhile, get off that tractor, kid! Show me your commercial driver's license! Oh, you don't have one? Ugh. Why don't we shut down your farm?!

2:26:12 Well that's a depressing show buzzkill. Oh no, let me buzzkill you one more. Uh oh. I can buzzkill you twice. Janet Napolitano came out with a new initiative. A new initiative, an 8 page memo about how private enterprise and schools can get involved in the If you see something, say something campaign. Trademark. here's how it works the strategy has a very clunky name empowering local partners to prevent violent extremism in the united states it's supposed to be a strategy that will help the obama administration tackle violent extremism in this country the white house's answer to al-qaeda's efforts to recruit americans and the title says it all the white house has decided to move the fight against radicalization downstream to the local level

2:27:10 where the White House wants community engagement, better local training, and compelling narratives to convince at-risk youth that violent extremism is a dead end. So how does violent extremism and self-radicalization start with these youngsters, John? How does it start, huh? At mosques outside of the Yemeni's, you know, downtown. You couldn't be more wrong. In departments and agencies that typically don't do this kind of counterterrorism work. Consider the Department of Education and its links to local schools. Here's an example. Truancy is an early indicator of gang affiliation in the U.S. It also happens to be an indicator of violent extremism. There you go. Remember when it used to be called playing hooky? You played hooky just to go goof off? Now, now you're becoming a violent extremist if you miss school. That's right. Lone Wolf, baby!

2:28:10 Along these very same lines, Luci Napolitano has decided that we need a new regulation on fertilizer. This is a great one because it fits into both the Agenda 21 of screwing farmers and into the lone wolf radicalization. uh... sector of homeland security loosen the pilot on a today announced the publication of the department of homeland security's notice of proposed rule-making that's an nprm on the federal register the creation of the ammonium nitrate security program part of the department's ongoing efforts to secure potentially dangerous chemicals and ensure those chemicals are not fall into the hands of those who could cause harm so you'll need a license to get your fertilizer now that's nice

2:29:01 Now I do want to say one thing, a lot of people sent me this news report that Nasser Abdo, that's the guy who was arrested because they thought he was going to attack Fort Hood, but they arrested him on a gun charge. But they arrested him and reportedly found enough material in his motel room for two bombs including gunpowder, shotgun shells, 18 pounds of sugar and Christmas lights. They didn't mention the pressure cooker in there. I do want to say one thing about ammonium nitrate and sugar. When I was a youngster, living in the same rural community, we would make flash paper. And the way you make flash paper is you take ammonium nitrate, equal parts ammonium nitrate, sugar, and water, then you soak paper in it overnight, you let it dry, and then when you light that it's like a magician's flash paper.

2:30:00 It gives like a huge fireball for a second the paper's gone. This is what we do on the farm. We make things like Rhino, man. We make stuff with propane tubes and fire and speakers. The American way, but yeah. We make stuff burn. It's what we do. It's fun. Well, you can't even buy a chemistry set nowadays. When I was a kid, I had a chemistry set. You can't buy a kid. The kind of chemistry set they used to sell when I was a kid, they're illegal. Really? Really? You can't put kids in any chemistry. You had like a... Oh yeah, absolutely. Totally illegal. I remember I had a chemistry kit. It was fun. You make little change colors and stuff that would smoke. I had a big one, a big giant chemistry set. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no can do. Just sit down and go to education and get, you know,

2:31:01 Propagandize about one thing or another and then just get by what is the current value of the tweeter John right now? What is the monetary value of the company tweeter? I think is a billion eight point four billion. Did you hear about the deal? Yeah, they got some money. Yeah from who I forgot. Oh, it's kind of important. Oh Digital Sky Technologies, these are the Russian guys. Yeah, the Russians Russians. Yeah, so they now have They got a big chunk of tweeter. They got a chunk of Facebook You think it's important somehow? Yeah, it probably is. I think it should be cracked down. If we actually have the Library of Congress archiving every single tweet, which I think is ridiculous that we're spending that money on archiving the tweeter. So, you know, apparently it's really important. Shouldn't we have a look at who's invested in these companies and maybe this is not such a good idea? Nah. Nah. Nah.

2:32:04 All right, one last one then. This is Senator Wyden. Yeah, I gotta do it to you. This is Senator Wyden. Remember, he's the guy who said, hey, does the government have the right to track human resources and citizens of the United States through cell phone data? And the douchebag from the NSA, Olson, wouldn't answer the question because, of course, they're doing it. So he's now all over Section 215. Of course, we have section215.org of the Patriot Act. and it's uh... scary as he is now can this is a democrat he is now confirming but we've been saying all along that there are two interpretations one is what the public is told about the patriot act the second one is the legal interpretation of the patriot act as interpreted by lawyers the new uh... soon to be uh... sir uh... certified aki mess network up confirmed uh... chief of counter

2:33:04 terrorism intelligence formerly of the NSA Olson mark you'd all and I he's also a member of the intelligence committee have sought to address two concerns in the reauthorization the first is we believe it ought to be possible to see how many innocent Americans innocent law-abiding Americans are having their communications swept up under the FISA law and we offered an amendment to have an audit in effect done. We lost it narrowly, but we're going to continue to press our case. The other deals with this question of secret law, and we're very troubled about the fact that there really are repercussions about this gap

2:33:47 between what is done in terms of the interpretations and secret as compared to the law that's on the books. It's going to undermine public confidence in these laws because when people find out all the facts, they're going to walk away and say their government isn't straight with us. Yeah. Screwing you is what you wanted to say. Well, I'm glad this guy's out there. I'm glad he's doing that with Udall. Is that Bobby? Bobby Udall? Yeah, well, no one's picking it up. Unfortunately. You know, the Patriot Act is gonna get us kicked off the air eventually. Oh yeah. So, uh, please double your donation because we'll need some time to coast before, uh... Yeah, between gigs. Between gigs! What am I gonna do? I don't know. What are you gonna do? I'm a writer. I can go back and rewrite now. I can write. I can write. Yeah, actually, your writing is very readable on those blog posts, but it does seem like you're straining. What do you mean?

2:34:48 Well, there's a certain thing where I mean you just it's not free-flowing. It's almost like you're writing like, you know, just let it rip It's not it's like as if you're actually you can actually hear yourself huffing and puffing by the time you get to the end of it Well, it's a hundred and ten degrees when I write these things It's just telling you it's huffing and puffing. So what should I do to change it? Nothing. Just keep writing. I think those little posts are interesting. Okay. Well, thank you That's a huge compliment coming from you Yeah, it is a compliment. I'm stunned actually. Oh, well thank you. Oh, that's nice. So we're having a big wrap party on what day, Mickey? 23rd. The 23rd? Is that the wrap party? Yep. 23rd. Are you coming, John?

2:37:27 lovely donations and Showing of support coming please Dvorak org slash na so we do the noodles kid is the end of show clip Yeah, play it does somebody requested this the great noodles getting by clip. Yeah, and I know the dictator's the kid who goes who do this is a classic X-Gen millennial or whoever he is bitching about his job that because he's not the boss I guess I'm not sure what he's thinking this kid. It's a dictatorship. I It's a dictatorship. Noodles or noodles is a dictatorship the noodles kid. Hey John good talking to you, man So we'll talk again on Sunday. I don't know what I'll be able to get done because we're going to be doing so much driving But I'll once again turn we're gonna drive eight hours tomorrow Just so I can have some time on Saturday to recuperate and to research for the show. Yeah, good luck Yeah, thanks. Thanks for the encouragement

2:38:24 Hey, I said you should be on the road, 20. I think this is great. Coming to you from Music City, USA, everybody! In Tennessee, the great state of Tennessee here in Nashville. Tonight, the big beat up at the Big Bang with Sir Jeff Smith. Thank y'all. I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley... I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll talk again on Sunday right here on No Agenda. Well, like I described earlier, there are two fundamental classes that are just a plain fact in society. You either work for someone else or you work for yourself. And most people work for someone else in a way that they aren't free. You don't really get to decide your work. For example, I work at Noodles, a restaurant.

2:39:07 And basically it's a dictatorship there. We're told exactly what we're going to cook, how we're going to cook it, what time we're going to get there. And basically if they don't like what they're doing, they try to tell us what to do. If we don't listen, they get rid of us. And so we're not able to actually cooperate in a way that we make decisions together. I try to convince my fellow employees that we should have a union at Noodles. So it's a source of power to start with. And then I think in terms of the bigger picture, when you look at revolutions, the way that you actually get rid of any sort of dictatorship is by having workers take control of the place where they work. Would your plan, your vision for noodles, would it include the owner? What capacity would he be granted? If the owner wanted to cooperate with us as an equal,

2:39:59 and provide his skills that he had, we would definitely cooperate with him. We'd have to abdicate his position as being an owner and controller of us, and he would have to recognize that we run noodles together, and basically, if he doesn't want to cooperate with us, he's against us. Adios, mofo. Dvorak.org slash N-A
