About this episode

Oakland police deployed tear gas, beanbags, and a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) sound cannon to disperse a crowd of 1,000 Occupy protesters, resulting in over 100 arrests and a critical injury to an Iraq War veteran. While local media suppressed reports of the sound weapon’s use, police officials simultaneously denied using flashbang grenades, claiming explosions were merely firecrackers. This domestic escalation mirrors international tactics seen during the Arab Spring, marking a shift in how municipal authorities manage civil unrest.

European leaders in Brussels finalized a debt deal introducing the Special Purpose Investment Vehicle (SPIV) to leverage the European Stability Fund to one trillion euros. The agreement forces a 50% haircut on Greek debt and mandates that Italy raise its retirement age to 67. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice proposed a Freedom of Information Act rule change allowing federal agencies to claim records do not exist even when they do. This move contradicts President Obama’s 2009 transparency pledge and signals a tightening of government secrecy. In the tech sector, Blue Coat Systems faces scrutiny for providing internet-blocking equipment to the Syrian government, while the American Academy of Pediatrics revised guidelines to allow ADHD medication for preschoolers.

President Obama’s rehearsed appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno avoided the controversial drone-strike killing of 16-year-old Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki in Yemen. The BBC launched a Human Resource Number Calculator based on UN data, assigning every individual a specific place in the 7-billion-person global population. Listeners Sir Joe, Sir Simon, and Sir Peter joined the No Agenda Roundtable as newly inducted knights, supporting the show's independent analysis of global governance and the emerging pilot-free aviation research in the UK.

CHAPTER 01 / 55 Discussion

Oakland Police Deploy Sound Cannons and Beanbags Against Protesters

Oakland Police utilized tear gas, beanbags, and a sound cannon to disperse a crowd of approximately 1,000 protesters, resulting in over 100 arrests. An Iraq War veteran is in critical condition with a fractured skull following the confrontation. Reports indicate the use of sound weapons, which can cause permanent hearing loss and concussions, has been suppressed in local media.

00:00 killed in a shark attack. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore. It's Thursday October 27th 2011 time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination episode 351! This is no agenda It's your personal SPIV here at the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center in the People's Republic of Southern California. In the morning everybody! It's Adam Curry here and from Northern Silicon Valley where we celebrate the salvation of the EU I'm John C. Dvorak. They also apparently cracked a few skulls finally in Oakland yeah about time

00:40 Yeah, yeah. And they used the... it was pretty uh... They also beat the crap out of an Iraq vet who's now been hospitalized in critical condition Well it was kind of interesting I was looking at some of the reporting Do I sound over modulated to you? No you sound great! Okay well that's good as my ears undermodulating And so here's a quick report from the local news. Police used tear gas and fired beanbags to disperse what they say were crowds of up to 1,000 protesters more than 100 were arrested the number of injured is not known but we do know two officers were injured at least one protester an Iraq war veteran suffered a fractured skull sounds so much nicer when you say being bag instead of rubber bullets doesn't it? Beanbag

01:34 I didn't mention the sound cannon. Oh, I didn't know about the sound cannon they use one of those oh Yeah That is that's such a vile weapon man the night it was be used against civilian population especially our own people But first it came out with all the reports about using this sound cannon my even here that security oh wow yeah Then they suppressed it Interesting. Information has been suppressed because there are apparently a lot of kids at the protests and these sound cannons, if you people can look up sound weapon... It's right it's a weapon! It's an actual weapon. It hurts yeah. You know it'll burst your eardrums, it'll make you permanently deaf or hard-of-hearing for the rest of your life. It also causes brain damage that can give you a concussion. It has all these problems and of course they the Oakland Police decided to pull one of

02:23 I think on the G20 riots, it's been used here and there against our own people. Philadelphia? It is really inexcusable and so now it has been...now whatever information was released to the public at first seems to be pulled and I don't know if they are denying they ever used it or what but this evidence says that probably did but also had a bunch of uh... those flash flash bang so you know that that's what's very interesting because here is the denial of the flash bangs andy shahida denied it see it doesn't well its interest in because it's not actually this spokes all for the cops who denies but the report this is from a pbf yet pbs action on models as they were going back into our garbage can to retrieve more bottles

CHAPTER 02 / 55 Discussion

Occupy Wall Street Tactics and Flashbang Denials

Police officials denied the use of flashbang grenades during Occupy Wall Street protests, claiming explosions heard were firecrackers thrown by demonstrators. Critics compare the domestic police response to the Arab Spring in Egypt, noting the use of rubber bullets and nighttime raids. The discussion highlights the lack of a singular clear message from the Occupy movement compared to international regime change efforts.

occupy wall street· flashbangs· andy shahida· arab spring· police policy

03:09 And by policy, we are allowed to use less lethal rounds to neutralize that person and take him into custody. Police also denied using flashbang grenades as demonstrators had charged They said the explosions came from firecrackers thrown by protesters Some of them firecrackers they rocked those are great firecrackers You know what this is this isn't outrage and I was talking to an author yesterday interviewing this author for the big book show And once you say to someone, she's like I wish the Occupy Wall Street people and the Occupy movement had a clear message. And once you say it should be the same as the Arab Spring. Remove regime change, remove the dictator and implement a no-fly zone people go huh?

04:01 Yeah, you know that's actually not so bad because is the footage not identical to what we saw first in Taghiyyih Square with Egypt? With rubber bullets tear gas it's the same thing. Well we're missing the guys on camels with baseball bats. A bunch of cops on camels. Well they'll do something different like donkeys or something They'll have some version of it, you know it's coming. And of course as predicted on this show weeks ago... It happened in the dead of night. They haven't got the guts to do this during the daytime. No! and by the way the flash bangs wouldn't show up so obviously during the day if they were using them

04:44 And those are flashbangs. I mean, I've seen flashbangs. Those are flashbangs. Oh they had a chopper overhead and they were shooting pictures and you could see it was yeah! It was way firecrackers Hey, are you up to speed on the Occupy hand signals? pretty much. I know a few of them, are there new ones coming out? Is there a book? Well there's a link in the show notes at 351.nashownotes.com which is um uh a video i think it's Occupy Seattle where they go through that's a general assembly so this is people you know the by the way this is total mind control when this repeating this is not about

CHAPTER 03 / 55 Discussion

Occupy Seattle Hand Signals and Illuminati Symbolism

Protesters at Occupy Seattle are utilizing specific hand signals during general assemblies to communicate process points and requests for clarification. One particular signal, involving holding hands in a pyramid shape, is noted for its resemblance to the Illuminati sign or branding used by rapper Jay-Z. These methods are characterized by some observers as a form of "dronery" or mind control.

occupy seattle· hand signals· illuminati· jay-z· mind control

05:29 uh... everyone has a voice or mega phone this is mind control this is dronery to sit there and like and the hand signal is and the hand signal is you can't see the hand signal but I want you to listen to the description then I'll tell what the hand signal is ears! I can hear what's being said! Wrap it up This is taking too much time. I get your point, please finish! Process points. Processes not being followed.

06:16 So do you know the hand signal for process point? Why are they using a term like process point? Is this some sort of seminar we're in? Let me give you the hand signal and then maybe you can help me. It is the Illuminati signal where you hold your hand in a pyramid with your thumbs together, like Jay-Z does in his videos it's the Illuminati hand signal It's not funny I saw this and was like wow! That is funny. Its the Illuminati hand signal. The Illuminati says you're not on process point, please clarify. I was like wow are you kidding me? They're throwing illuminati signs now either that or it's a Jay Z commercial for his new CD. If you think about it

07:17 Oh, you're just a phone. I know hold on It's that thing again That wonderful being while we're doing that all entertain the audience Okay, alright, yeah, that was good that was little okay They can't hear you when I'm doing that okay? I think it's fixed now Okay, one of the thesis of our shows everything doesn't go back to show business and movie Why wouldn't it be the Jay-z sign? Maybe they slip that in just for that purpose. That's awesome That day reminds me I should buy this Hey house Beyonce's baby actually I was just thinking about that dude It's still cutting out piece of crap

BBC Human Resource Number Calculator and UN Population Data

The BBC released a "Human Resource Number Calculator" based on United Nations Population Fund data to coincide with the global population reaching 7 billion. Users input their birth dates to receive a specific number representing their place in human history. The tool includes a "hockey stick" growth graph, which some interpret as a pessimistic view of global population sustainability.

CHAPTER 05 / 55 Discussion

European Union Debt Deal and the SPIV Acronym

European leaders in Brussels finalized a debt deal to address the Eurozone crisis, introducing the "Special Purpose Investment Vehicle" or SPIV. The acronym is noted for being British slang for a black-market swindler, highlighting a perceived lack of cultural awareness by EU officials. Herman Van Rompuy delivered a victory speech emphasizing that markets will grant the EU time if a clear direction is established.

angela merkel· brussels· spiv· european union· herman van rompuy

12:07 Yeah, people should definitely look at this up. Look at this So there's this word that cropped up over the past couple days and of course I know you've been following the actual news along with me for uh... For the actual news media in the United States of Gitmo Nations totally- Don't look over here! Nothing to see here! Ooh, look at that! Please don't look what is happening in Europe Please go look at Herman Cade smoking ad or smiling ad please don't look at what's happening A new word SPIV! Spiv? Spiv! Spiv stands for special purpose investment vehicle. Unfortunately, the idiots in Brussels don't realize this is also slang British slang for a person who makes a living by underhand dealings or swindling Such idiots does no one have and no one has no one have the urban dictionary in Brussels do they not see the irony or is it just throwing it in my face

13:12 I think the latter. Yeah, i think the former they're too dumb to throw that in your face like hey man i got a great idea hey Herman look we call it spiv we are like black marketeers That's angela that's my angula Angela Merkel no, that's That's your same old what's-his-name Brzezinski. No Brzezinski is very much like this. No, no This is Angela so the United States of Gitmo nation Europe United States of Europe which now truly is becoming the United States of Europe only The states have no say in the matter They decided late

13:58 last night for early in the morning for the Europeans that they have a deal and markets respond accordingly everyone's vibing on it, everyone's groovy. I have Haiku Herman's victory speech here if you'd like to listen to that just so we can set the stage a little bit Oh, is he gonna do some poetry while we're at it? No haiku unfortunately. Just his little victory speech about how great they are! Good morning as I said to the journalists... Two ducks walked into a bar. Good morning as i said to the journalists only a few hours ago last night was a- What a non sequitur

14:47 What is the point? Good morning, as I said to a journalist only a few seconds ago. Thanks douche! There is some truth in it. But I am deeply convinced the markets will give us the time we need when they see a clear direction and a clear determination. I've worked hard with all the European Council's members, and in particular the President of the European Commission to achieve this result." Yeah, I rock!

CHAPTER 06 / 55 Discussion

Global Governance and the Politician's Cement

Herman Van Rompuy described "time" as the "politician's cement" while advocating for new economic governance and emergency procedures within the EU. The purposeful failing of the Euro is viewed by some as a catalyst for deeper political integration and the creation of a United States of Europe. These new rules aim to anticipate future financial problems and enable rapid reactions beyond traditional political speeds.

global governance· euro· integration· emergency procedures· herman van rompuy

15:31 All along we had a double duty. Dealing with the current crisis and preventing a new one from arising. Taking emergency actions like setting up rescue funds but also putting together step by step, a new economic governance to help avoid future problems. Hello that would be uh one you can cross off in the red book I predicted this i predicted there'd be new global governance As the integration of the United States of Gitmo Nation Europe is now closer than ever because of the purposeful failing of the euro. European Union is often charged with coming up with too little and to late

16:15 The markets have the luxury of moving at the speed of a click of a mouse. Political processes are working at their most rapid, cannot deliver so speedily. In politics one needs time to bring everybody on board Time is the politician's cement. You remember that one? This is, this is... Time is the politicians' cement! This is gonna be one of his new haikus. Cement. Vet. Politicians dry Yet it is crucial that we put in place rules and procedures that will anticipate problems in the future and prevent them from arising. And it's also crucial that we develop emergency procedures enabling a more speedy and flexible reaction, improving Europe's capacity to act as the best sign of mutual trust

17:15 we can give to the public, to the markets and to ourselves. Thank you. Thank you very much. In politics, one needs time to bring everybody on board. Time is the politician's cement. Yet it is crucial that we put in place rules and procedures that will anticipate problems in the future and prevent them from arising. And it is also crucial that we develop emergency procedures enabling a more speedy and flexible reaction." Yeah you're right

CHAPTER 07 / 55 Discussion

Greek Debt Haircuts and Italian Labor Reforms

The EU debt agreement includes a 50% "haircut" for private investors in Greek debt and the leveraging of the European Stability Fund (EFSF) up to one trillion euros. Italy has committed to structural reforms, including raising the retirement age to 67 and liberalizing local public services. These measures are intended to increase competitiveness and consolidate fiscal policy across the Eurozone.

greece· italy· haircut· efsf· retirement age

18:04 The emergency procedures. So they released a 15 page document, now of course all you're going to hear about in the media I think is the three main things that private investors in Greece and other failing states of Europe such as Spain and Italy that they are taking a 50% haircut and I have some information on that. The second one is the leveraging, please listen carefully, the leveraging of the European Stability Fund, ESFS or ESFSF whatever it is, Starship Enterprise

18:41 leveraging by up to five times. So they have about 250 billion euros in the fund and they're going to leverage it, which explain that. That's how they get to the trillion. That's how they get to the trillion. They're going to leverage it which means basically borrow against it from China and other countries who are very interested now The third one is the recapitalization of the banks this is an important one I believe that means we take money from the slaves and give it to bankers. Is that a correct assessment? Well, that seems to be your model. Okay! However, the 15-page document which i would like to go through just briefly here and read a couple of highlighted passages... Of course you'll find in the show notes linked under the assets section 351.nashownotes.com The wordage is very interesting

19:34 I want to go through that for a second. I'm all ears All member states of the your area are fully determined to continue their policy of fiscal consolidation and structural reforms Cross it off in the red book fiscal consolidation, which means tax Consolidation coming to you from Brussels A particular effort will be required of those member states who are experiencing tensions in sovereign debt markets ie You're screwed Actions should include enhancing labor market changes to increase flexibility at firm level and employability of the labor force and other reforms to improve competitiveness, especially extending the reforms in the service sector. I read that as lower minimum wage how do you read it? Well i don't read it uh... You're reading it. What are you- Yeah It could be

20:27 Italy will now implement the proposed structural reforms to increase competitiveness by cutting red tape, abolishing minimum tariffs in professional services and further liberalizing local public services and utilities i.e., we're selling off your crap We take note of the plan to increase the retirement age to 67 years. Oh yeah, this has gotten everybody in and out! Keep working Italian slaves good job on you Especially the Greeks who retire at 55 or something like that... Yeah we support Italy's intention to review structural fund programs by re-prioritizing projects and focusing on education employment digital agenda and railways networks with the aim of improving the conditions to enhance growth and tackle the regional divide

CHAPTER 08 / 55 Discussion

Troika Oversight and Project Helios Solar Initiative

The "Troika," consisting of the European Central Bank, the IMF, and the European Commission, will monitor the implementation of Greek reforms. Greece has committed future cash flows from "Project Helios," a massive 10-gigawatt solar plant project, to reduce its national debt. This level of external surveillance and asset privatization marks a significant shift in Greek sovereignty.

troika· imf· ecb· project helios· greece

21:11 uh... now here's the views the first mention of some other words to become interesting we invite the commission that starfleet command in brussels provided detailed assessment of the majors and to monitor their implementation those the first time they using the word monitor but gets a little bit better further on um... in context of the new program the commission cooperation with the other troika partners now the troika is just to explain first of all when was this used in history the troika wasn't it used like a bad term? Wasn't it something in the Russian... It was mostly used by for various forms of government where nobody could agree on who's running that thing so they created Troika and I believe its a Russian term because I think the Russians, communists did this every so often. Well the Troika in this case is the European Central Bank

22:02 The IMF and the Starfleet command in Brussels. So, you know there's basically two financial parties one of which is certainly external to the EU the IMF Did they use the word Troika? Oh yeah! Troika! The troika partners This is like a classic communist term People are just telling it like it is Absolutely We've taken over. Including with the involvement of national experts to work in close and continuous cooperation with the Greek government, and the Troika! To advise and offer assistance in order to ensure the timely and full implementation of reforms." Now about the haircut... "...to this end we invite Greece private investors and all parties concerned to develop a voluntary bond exchange with a nominal discount of 50%." Yeah it's involuntary!

22:54 Now here's something I didn't know about. Greece commits future cash flows from Project Helios or other privatization revenue in excess of those already included in the adjustment program to further reduce indebtedness of the Hellenic Republic by up to 15 billion euros Did you know about project Helios? No. Project Helios basically turns Greece into one big solar panel It is a... Now I'm reading from 2000, from a couple months ago. It's a mammoth according to International Herald Tribune 10 gigawatt solar plant that encompasses 200 square kilometers of public land so essentially they're taking all that money that comes from selling that energy if they sell it i guess and uh... they have to give it back

23:54 So this goes on, this crap goes on and on and here's the SPIV. We agree on two basic options... This is the agreement they signed basically. Two basic options to leverage resources so that is how they are going to take that $250 billion and turn it into a trillion maximizing the funding arrangements of the EFSF with a combination of resources from private and public financial institutions and investors which can be arranged through special purpose investment vehicles, SPIV. IE black marketeers! The leverage effect of each option will vary depending on their specific features so essentially there's... it says right here but could be up to four to five they're going to leverage that money to come up with more now

CHAPTER 09 / 55 Discussion

Lisbon Treaty Protocols and Financial Surveillance

The EU is moving toward "fiscal harmonization," which may include standardized value-added taxes determined by Brussels. Reference is made to Protocol 14 of the Lisbon Treaty regarding the election of a president for the Eurogroup working group. Critics argue that the term "surveillance" in EU documents signals an intrusive level of financial oversight over member states.

lisbon treaty· protocol 14· surveillance· brussels· value-added tax

24:44 When we started this podcast in, was it 2008? I think it was 2008 right. Yeah I thought it was in the 40's Might as well have been with just repeating it. Uh...I had just started to become very interested in the Lisbon Treaty which essentially for those of you who are forgotten or too young Was the Constitution of the United States of Europe which was voted down and then they pulled it apart, split it into all these different pieces and called it the Lisbon Treaty. And of course France and the Netherlands voted against it Ireland voted against it do over A was voted in we're done but I specifically remember discussing the protocols which is something that is rarely referred to

25:28 The protocols are these documents that sit somewhere else, that essentially tell you how it's going to be done which includes the right to arrest anyone who has a contagious disease such as swine flu, the flu AIDS whatever you got and the right to kill human resources if they run away from the police. And this is first time I've seen a document that references one of the protocols openly namely protocol number 14 and this will be for the Euro... what is it? The Euro-Boar, the euro group working group they get to elect a president and looks like an elect this Finnish guy who's been a shill from day one. And this is the guy who's gonna oversee all of this stuff. Here's how they're going to do it and this is where gets into the crazy language. Hold on second I just need to find the word sorry such

26:31 such a crazy document. The word surveillance keeps cropping up and I don't know if there's a legal definition for the word surveillance other than exactly what i think it sounds like, John? Well you know let me throw in a couple of things here before we get too much on track First of all, I think this whole thing is bullcrap. I think they're just stalling the whole system is about to collapse and they don't want to...

27:07 They just do anything they can to keep it from happening and I've got some clips that are interesting to kind of back up my thesis. And so this is just a bunch of, you know arm waving and bull crap that they did just to keep the stock market going in fact is really triggered the US stock market. Yeah we're like 300 points or something. We're fantastic! They fixed it didn't fix anything And they didn't agree on anything and as you point out most of the stuff that they did kind of agree on even though it's vague is all you know, it's leverage and a bunch of other bullcrap. The Germans in fact Merkel on todays front page of the New York Times looks dour and doesn't look like she is happy camper about anything. She didn't eat her Wheaties that for sure. One if she looked otherwise. Ever since George Bush grabbed her so I'm not convinced that any this really anything more than panic And I will say to defend the use of the word surveillance

28:07 that it refers to financial oversight. Well let me read it and then we can move on from this the legislative package on economic governance strengthens economic and fiscal policy coordination and surveillance After it enters into force, it will be strictly implemented as part of the European semester. We call for rigorous surveillance by the Commission and the Council including through peer pressure and active use of existing instruments available So essentially what this means is you are now going to have taxes determined by Brussels and I predict the main one will be a harmonization, one of their favorite words of the value-added tax. This is what's gonna happen that's a part that's actually that's a good one to put in the book let me put it in there. Harmonisation... Let's back up and see how this all began play my clip The EU did not follow its own rules yeah

CHAPTER 10 / 55 Discussion

Maastricht Treaty Violations and the Euro's Original Sin

A former IMF director stated that the "original sin" of the EU was entering a currency union without a political union. Many countries, starting with Germany, flouted the Maastricht Treaty rules by running budget deficits exceeding 3% of GDP. Some analysts suggest these violations were permitted on purpose to eventually force a consolidated political and fiscal union during a crisis.

maastricht treaty· gdp· germany· imf· currency union

29:07 done a while ago. I would agree that initially the mistake was to get into a currency union without having the political union. right there to start to support it. That was the original sin but then they spent 10 years flouting their own internal rules, they had a Maastricht Treaty that required countries not to run budget deficits in excess of 3% of GDP that didn't stop Greece having a budget deficit of 15% of GDP, Ireland 14% of GDP,

30:04 Portugal and Spain close to 10% of GDP. Once you build up those imbalances in a fixed exchange rate system, it's too late to be talking about we should have more political union and the better structure. You've really got to address those imbalances and it is very difficult to do that without having the benefit devalued currency that promotes export growth as an offset to the kind of fiscal adjustment. These countries are having to do four or five percentage points a fiscal adjustment in a year right in the middle of a recession this just doesn't work so this guy is an ex-IMF director back in the 90's who seems to think IMF is telling everybody the wrong things to do and he said contrarian, there's a congressional hearing

30:59 And I think what the surveillance, this kind of points out with the surveillances in other words these guys were violating all their own basic... What they signed up for. Because there was no surveillance in terms of making sure these people were following the rules According to this guy and if you want to listen to some more of his material uh... he is got the would be easy as a great in terms of uh... there's no happy outcome and that you can play no happy outcome for the year-long i actually i saw this now one was released clips i saw this on c span i followed it with their great interest uh... i assert however

31:36 that these policies were set in place and purposely violated. It started with Germany actually, Germany was the first one to go over the 3% debt versus GDP ratio they're the first ones you know these are the most fiscally sound guys in the nation I think it was done on purpose to get to this point, to get to the political union. To get to the fiscal harmonization that's what i think went on here... I like the way you're thinking if I'm going to listen to the IMF guy or their former guy I am going to have to conclude that that is possible what you're saying

CHAPTER 11 / 55 Discussion

Potential European Conflict and IMF Pessimism

Economists at the International Monetary Fund express doubt regarding a "happy outcome" for the Eurozone due to deep political divisions between France and Germany. There is speculation that the crisis could lead to a massive depression or even conflict between EU members and non-Euro countries like the UK and Sweden. The US Congress is advised to base policy on realistic assumptions rather than expecting an easy European solution.

uk· sweden· switzerland· depression· imf

32:18 But it may be that they've screwed it up so badly that they can't get there without having a massive depression. By the way, that could be too if you're going to go just take your theory to the complete limit You have to have the massive depression which then they that's when you can consolidate power a lot easier than with everyone's happy Ah well I think that what might happen is we might see a war and the war will come between the eurozone EU members and Eurozone EU members so you'll get the UK and Sweden and what's the other one Switzerland

32:59 No, Switzerland is not in the EU at all. Who uses the Frank? Oh they're not in the EU I'm sorry you're right so Switzerland interesting never trusted those guys The Swiss are not in the EU and neither is Norway But you may see the UK bond with other countries who don't use the euro and maybe not even in the EU at all That's a possibility because Sweden I don't know what Finland if they use the EU. I think they do. Yeah, no they do. They do. I don't know it's a possibility England is always on the... It seems to be part of a war against Germany trying to save the French Well let's listen to what this guy says about the outcome for the euro

33:44 But they've just got to... What can we do here in the United States? What can the administration do in order to try and help facilitate that. It's really limited, it's like watching a family member who is about to marry somebody they really shouldn't marry You could provide advice There are not alot more you could do Let me take that another step further Dr Lachman or Mr Oshishi please chime if you'd like but what can we do in the United States recognizing issues over in Europe right now and how potentially disastrous they could be. What can we be doing here in Congress to try to help insulate that crisis for the American taxpayer?

34:22 I think that what one can do is base one's policy on realistic assumptions. I would agree with Mr. Elliott that there is not much one can do about a dysfunctional political union where the problems, the political problems are huge and I don't think it is a question of dithering leadership. I think that it is a question you have got electorates who really donג€™t have their heart in wanting to bail out countries. You've got very, very deep divisions how the burden should be shared politically that the Germans have got a different view of the world

35:04 than the French do. These are very deep differences that I'm not sure that there's a whole lot that we can do to resolve. The point is they got themselves into a currency arrangement that made very little sense, they didn't play by the rules for ten years. I don't think you can expect a very easy solution. These problems have been building for a long time and in my career at the International Monetary Fund I've never seen such huge public financing balances and external imbalances in a fixed currency arrangement than we've got in Europe, you know which doesn't give me much hope that this is going to have happy outcome. Yeah well it's not for the slaves but will have very happy outcome for the elites John this has been going since 1958

CHAPTER 12 / 55 Discussion

US Economic Insulation and Thomas Friedman's Globalism

Author Thomas Friedman is promoting a "one world" agenda in his new book, advocating for a carbon tax and an end to the filibuster to shock the political system. While some argue the US economy is somewhat armored against the European downturn, others fear the US is being dragged into a global governance system. The American public is generally viewed as resistant to these internationalist policies.

thomas friedman· obama· cnn· globalism· carbon tax

35:56 since they started with the first European atomic treaty. It's just been going on and on and on, and they've been planning this! They... it's planned! This is absolute plan, and the Germans are mainly behind it which is why they popped the 3% rule in the first place I like it, I know what you're saying. Yeah but you shouldn't like it! You should be outraged by it don't like it? Well it is outrageous well that's kind of interesting to observe...I think there's a book in it so uh yeah yeah It's called Process Point Violated We are all screwed when these guys go down we've you know there may be some thinking like that on our side of the Atlantic because we and these guys kind of they don't ever say that you know this is a great thing for the United States

36:41 But we seem to be and I we've discussed this on the show before that We seem because of the nature of our economy in the way. We've handled it. We seem to be we're not going to Avoid a massive downturn, I mean that's not gonna happen but but we seem to be somewhat armored against what could really happen That's incredibly bad in Europe Which I think is as a foregone conclusion now Why do you think were somewhat armored against that? I think we're sad, because our economy is not tied to those guys. In fact a lot of the when they talk when there was actually good discussion on CNN or CNBC World about the fact that you know we don't have...

37:22 taxed when every time somebody screws up in Europe, and we're not part of that system. I mean you can see that we're trying to be dragged into it with this one world government nonsense but except for people like Obama perhaps and some of the Democrats the American public's not going for it. Well I'll tell ya The way Obama is going. I'm a little disappointed that unfortunately the clip failed, oh no i do have the clip it's to play the Thomas Friedman here's an American three time Pulitzer winner and listen to the blather he has a new book out and see if you can catch kind of one world notion that he's pushing because he's an agendaist.

CHAPTER 13 / 55 Discussion

Obama's Executive Orders and Student Loan Waivers

President Obama is increasingly using executive orders to bypass Congressional gridlock, recently issuing waivers for "No Child Left Behind" and altering student loan repayment terms. Critics characterize this as legislating from the Oval Office and moving toward a "dictatorship" model. The history of executive orders is traced back to George Washington, though the frequency and scope of their use have expanded significantly in the modern era.

barack obama· executive order· student loans· no child left behind· george washington

38:06 The basic point we're making in the book is that we believe that the political system is completely stuck right now, okay? And between the two parties. That the system needs a shock and we need to open up the discussion In certain group of areas Bill... What are things I'd love to see on the table that aren't on the table right now? Carbon tax There's whole set of issues okay That are just like off the table right now And I would love to see a presidential debate, okay? With the Republican and Democrat. And an independent candidate who brought up all these other things. Let's end the filibuster let's have a carbon tax." Well this is going to happen and i'll tell you why as the president announced when he talked about his American Jobs Act He said if Congress won't do it I will! And he's doing it This went kind of unnoticed by the media and us

38:54 uh... the first thing he did without congressional approval vote or even discussion was removing the uh... we're giving out waivers for no child left behind And in the past week, it's completely unreported. All of a sudden Congress goes whoa whoa whoa hold on a second what did he just do? And now they're debating it The next thing is you know I'm gonna give all the students and you can just cross it off out of the red book He's going to help you on your belly out of your student loans And he's done this without congressional oversight, approval or even discussion. He is now acting like a dictator and he's doing it by executive order! Well you know one thing that's interesting because I... This has been kind of... It has been mentioned it hasn't been reported in much detail but he did make the threat. He stood at the Oval Office and did it again. Congress isn't going to agree with what I want so I'm just gonna do it. And he basically said that two or three times now

39:55 and which is essentially taking the executive order power and upping the ante. I have been wondering for years how far this executive order idea, which has been abused by a lot of the presidents...I don't know when it began we should probably do a little research because I bet you there's an interesting curve but from what i could tell because I know Clinton did a bunch of weird ones or just basically executive orders for his buddies when it was going to be the executive order could just take care of legislation. Just legislate from the Oval Office, make it an executive order! Take that whole jobs jobs jobs bill and make it an executive order why even give it to Congress? If you can do any executive orders why can't you do that?! The first executive order issued by George Washington

40:47 Damn, that would be the first guy. But no one's abused it like did the potential for abuse is there it seems to me? I think Dwight Eisenhower used it to organize the intelligence agencies at the beginning of his term and then Roosevelt kicked in with a lot of them again for the creation of agencies this is when the surveillance state really started so was really around the Eisenhower era and George Washington's executive order was instructing the heads of departments to make a clear account of matters in their departments like alright that's not such a huge one it's kind of like hey. That's an internal thing for his own group yeah I asked the boss here you go clean up your crap show me your spreadsheets, i get that well there's a couple things that are very worrying

CHAPTER 14 / 55 Discussion

Barack Obama's Rehearsed Interview on The Tonight Show

President Obama appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in an interview described by observers as highly rehearsed and scripted. During the segment, Obama praised the Navy SEALs for their precision in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden but did not address the subsequent deaths of several team members. The interview avoided controversial topics, such as the authorized killing of American citizens via drone strikes.

jay leno· barack obama· navy seals· osama bin laden· tonight show

41:43 And let me go through the PR portions and let me go through the really bad portion, and I'm just going to make another prediction. It's just gonna keep going So first of all this executive order stuff that...I really do believe that as you point out we're moving towards dictatorship because that's really what it is! I mean its a...just hey shut up and then do as I say so Obama shows up here in California President Obama I would like to say and he goes on the Tonight Show. Did you see this by any chance? Oh yeah! So I had to pull a couple of clues... By the way, before you go on because i know your going to say it so im gonna say it first This was the most rehearsed interview that I have ever seen in my life No kidding It was like why doesn't Leno just hold up a sheet and read from it as y'know it was obvious that the questions were prepared by Obama

42:40 He never could, he didn't ask anything off topic or even an ad lib question. They were structured in such a way that this was not even Leno's voice It was. Leno talks a certain way and he has a certain patter, this was structured in someway that was obviously done by the press office. It's ridiculous! And there were no obvious questions you know? No obvious ones... This is the closest he got to something that was kind of interesting. You know obviously- This is about droning people and laughing about it essentially. That's not something I think we should

43:17 Relish and you know there was a reason after bin Laden was killed for example. We didn't release the photograph You know I think that there's a Certain decorum with which you treat the dead even if it's somebody who? Has done terrible things yeah like good Hillary Clinton did have we all forgotten what she did I mean is that all of a sudden? We just don't remember that anymore. We came we saw he died Yeah, so that's respecting the dead. That's respecting the dead So then let's uh let's try this one out for size How hard was it to make that decision to send in those Navy SEALs because that could have been Could have been a disaster I mean but The reason i was able to do It was He finished the question Leno didn't finish by the way Of course because he just reading along you knew what to say When you meet these seals and You talk to them they are the best of the best

44:16 They are professional, they're precise. They practice, they train, they understand what exactly that they intend to do. They're prepared for the worst in almost every circumstance so even though it was 50-50 that bin Laden would be there I was a hundred percent confident in them And I could not have made that decision were it not for the fact that our men and women in uniform are the best there is. Now, what are we missing from this? What are we missing from this? Besides the applause sign? Yeah, what are we missing from what he's saying? It's too bad they're all dead!

44:59 Well, yeah. He missed that accidental death of these guys I mean he's just saying they rocked their awesome It could have been like so tragic it said anything we have to honor people Yeah We got to honor dictators who get killed but not the seals who kill the dictators blatantly rude One that Leno really you know again is rehearsed and he was reading from a script But the one that was really bad was when they talked about a Lockheed and he never mentioned, did you know there's a controversy over you putting out an order to kill an American citizen? That's the obvious question. Yeah not for a second. Not for a second! Let me just finish these up then Obama runs off off the rails and he screws up the language

CHAPTER 15 / 55 Discussion

Libya Intervention Costs and Leading From the Front

President Obama defended the US intervention in Libya, rejecting the "leading from behind" label and asserting that the US "led from the front." He highlighted that the operation cost $1 billion—significantly less than the Iraq war—and resulted in no US boots on the ground. The mission relied on a UN mandate and cooperation with Arab countries to take out Muammar Gaddafi's air defenses.

libya· nato· gaddafi· barack obama· un mandate

45:50 We have gone through the worst financial crisis, the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. People are hurting out there and they've been hurting out there for a while and people were having a tough time even before the crisis. You know incomes wages were all flat costs of everything from college to... Incomes wages we're all flat... ...to health care You know, uh oh crap he's thinking. Oh crap I just screwed it up gas to food all of it was going up Yeah What happened since he got in did what did it go down John? Did the insurance go down? Did gas go down or did it double

46:29 He really screwed it up here. And so people were feeling a lot of pressure even before this crisis and so... Yeah, he's blaming on everybody else you got this clip the Libya thing? Well now the one I see that clip that I've tried to eat in pick up on this when i thought the most interesting clip was the one I have on Libya where he all of a sudden out of the blue Mean I thought this was unbelievable. I'm when the Europeans hear this especially the Canadian guy Who's they had a NATO the NATO forces that took this thing? This is project on and all end of French in the rest of out of the blue He took Obama takes credit for the whole thing so nobody else did anything now You took some heat for the whole leading from behind tactic here with Libya explain that well The truth was we

47:12 You know this was a phrase that the media picked up on but it's not one that I ever used. We led from the front, we introduced the resolution in the United Nations that allowed us to protect civilians in Libya when Gaddafi was threatening to slaughter them It was our extraordinary men and women in uniform Our pilots who took out their air defense systems set up an no-fly zone It was our folks in NATO who were helping to coordinate the NATO operation there. And the difference here is we were able to organize the international community

47:54 We were able to get the UN mandate for the operation. We were able to get Arab countries involved and so there was never this sense that somehow we were unilaterally making a decision to take out somebody, rather it was the world community and thats part of the reason why this whole thing only cost us $1 billion as opposed to a trillion dollars not a single US troop was on the ground, not a single US... Stand by applause sign in 5 4 3 2 1 Good job everybody let's go to commercial. I'm sorry directing the show. So yeah there was a little offbeat. I think that guy leaned on the button too soon to be honest about it but this is bullcrap! All of his sudden he comes out and starts thumping pounding his chest

48:46 So bragging about how cheap it was oh, yeah. It was cheap so he's cheep cheese Cheaper a grudge it was cheap man. It was cheap not a problem all right, so days not months Let's get off of this with let's give we need to give our credit Let me just do the last clip because this is my prediction part Here's the meme that you're gonna be hearing for the next Eight weeks you ready for it see if you can catch the meme Johnny boy oops I just ran all that loud when you do the big buildup. You always do it always screw It's like I'm stopping like choking, but I also think that policymakers and future presidents need to understand

CHAPTER 16 / 55 Discussion

Home for the Holidays Meme and Predator Drones

A new media meme titled "Home for the Holidays" is expected to be the dominant theme for the US military presence over the next eight weeks. Reports from White House insiders suggest President Obama has a personal fascination with predator drones, viewing them as a primary tool of power. The use of folksy language like "folks" and "look" is noted as a rhetorical strategy to make complex military discussions seem more accessible.

predator drones· white house· holidays· military· propaganda

49:31 what it is that we're getting ourselves into when we make some of these decisions and uh... you know there might have been other ways for us to accomplish those same goals but the main thing right now here comes is to celebrate uh... the extraordinary work that are men and women did in uh... having them home for the holidays dad that's it home for the holidays bring out the carpools no place like home for the holidays They're gonna reissue this. This will be the theme song. Yeah, now you watch Perry Cuomo did the original but I think they'll reissue The Carpenters because more money to be made That's a good one. Everything is about making money Did you notice that Obama by the way people listen for Obama every time he says look yeah

50:24 He said it five times I believe during this thing and then folks. Everything is folks. Look, folks... Our folk in the thing are our folks in NATO are our folks you know the military are our folks There's got to be a reason for that? And I know there's a reason for that but I just don't exactly what it is But he keeps saying it so bring it down I think its to bring the discussion into kind of a homie style since hes really kinda dilettante Well I do know whenever someone says we instead of I thats like Lying and pushing possible blame away from you, and he says we all the time all the time Yeah No He's a he doesn't take the blame for anything but takes the credit apparently for everything so if you have a If you have a moment it's in the show notes three five one that any shown us calm look at the Ultraman report. He has another interview with The White House insider which I think Really is is a real insider in fact

51:18 Two weeks ago this insider predicted this home for the holidays meme. And in addition to that... So, this is not your prediction? No I predicted it- I'm taking it off! What do you mean?! You ripped it off from the other guy! No, okay well whichever way you want to do it. You think I ripped it off? I said the Carpenters' Home For The Holidays is going to be released! Oh so you're predicting that the Wrecker's gonna come out again? Yeah yeah. Okay. What he, the title of the most recent interview is that Obama gets off on the drones. That he loves it! I think he does, he seems preoccupied with them He totally gets off on the drones and i'm like you know...I think that's actually right. He's like totally into it and then when you listen to that White House press corps speech I have two words for ya

Patriot Act Tenth Anniversary and Dylan Ratigan's Critique

MSNBC host Dylan Ratigan marked the tenth anniversary of the USA Patriot Act, criticizing the broad counter-terrorism powers granted to the FBI. He argued that the ability to invade privacy and issue gag orders under the cloak of national security resembles the tactics of a third-world country. The discussion notes that these powers lack sufficient visibility and integrity enforcement mechanisms.

patriot act· dylan ratigan· msnbc· fbi· privacy

1:02:11 We go out we hit people in the mouth now and you're sexy cut I Forgot to congratulate you. Thank you on 10 years of the Patriot Act oh great yeah Dylan Rattigan celebrated this this guy

1:02:48 Yeah, he can't be long for the world. I agree! Listen to what he said about it... Well then again you gotta remember since Cable Town bought MSNBC or NBC yeah maybe they could be and they're conservative maybe conservative family oriented it's possible that Rattigan is actually on just the opposite in fact I'll make this prediction He's on the fast track to primetime Let's listen 10 years ago today that President Bush signed the USA Patriot Act into law designed to give the FBI more counter-terrorism power in an era of extraordinary fear immediately following 9 11 and the invasions of Afghanistan, and of course Iraq. Noble intentions perhaps but power as we know when it is allocated to a few without any visibility and without any enforcement mechanism for integrity can be a complicated thing at best

1:03:39 an exquisitely dangerous one at worst. And under the cloak of quote national security right now, the FBI is able to invade our privacy yours and mine withhold its reasoning behind that invasion searching you or me and issue letters that prohibit you or me from letting anyone know that you are being investigated sounds like a third world country doesn't it? Yeah, overthrow the regime remove the evil dictator and implement a no-fly zone. It's not that hard people we really need to get on this

Freedom of Information Act Policy Changes

The Department of Justice is proposing a rule change to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) that would allow federal agencies to claim records do not exist even when they do. The ACLU and other government openness organizations have criticized the move as a policy of explicit lying. This change contradicts previous administration promises regarding government transparency and accountability.

1:04:21 We did discuss this, the FBI letter. Because we had some clips from the guy who actually got one of the letters and then he went to his lawyer who wasn't supposed too and that whole thing He ended up writing a book about it but this is continuing And its like ridiculous and there's nobody doing anything about it They're just submissive, they don't care. This is like the Rome default during the fall of Rome was the Senate they'd just stop dealing with anything except that having a good time partying It's actually worse there's an a bill now that changes the rules of the Freedom of Information Act FOIA have you heard about this rule change? No, but I'm sure it's not a positive change.

1:05:25 send a request to Washington, to the particular agency. Give me the records." They have a certain amount of days you pay and get the records now by rule change that the Department Justice says we want the capacity to say that records don't exist when they do in fact exists. Now there are certain exemptions under law right law enforcement foreign policy personnel records personal records involving particular people. And so that's exemptions built in, but the ACLU and other organizations even middling and right-centered organizations for openness in government are saying listen this is going too far don't explicitly say that it's gonna be a policy of the federal government to say we're gonna lie So this is fascinating when you read the text of this bill Wait a minute stop the presses

Obama's 2009 Transparency Pledge vs. Current Secrecy

In 2009, President Obama pledged that his administration would be the most transparent in history, stating that the "era of secrecy" was over. He claimed that information would only be withheld if a separate authority found the request grounded in the Constitution. Critics contrast these early "touchstone" promises with current efforts to restrict FOIA access and hide government records.

barack obama· transparency· attorney general· rule of law· touchstones

1:06:17 I thought this was going to be the most transparent administration in the history of the United States and this is going on? This makes no sense to me. Well, you fell right into my trap because i pulled the exact words from President Obama about The Freedom Of Information Act. This is from 2009. And the way to make government accountable is make it transparent so that the American people can know exactly what decisions are being made, how they're being made and whether their interests are being well served. The directives I am giving my administration today on how to interpret the Freedom of Information Act will do just that. For a long time now there's been too much secrecy in this city. The old rules said if there was a defensible argument for not disclosing something to the American people then it should not be disclosed

1:07:11 that era is now over. Starting today, every agency and department should know that this administration stands on the side not of those who seek to withhold information but those who seek to make it known To be sure issues like personal privacy and national security must be treated with the care they demand The mere fact you have legal power to keep something secret does no mean you should always use it Freedom of Information Act is perhaps the most powerful instrument we have for making our government honest and transparent, and of holding it accountable. And I expect members of my administration not simply to live up to the letter but also the spirit of this law

1:07:53 I will also hold myself as president to a new standard of openness. Going forward, anytime the American people want to know something that I or a former president wants to withhold we will have to consult with the Attorney General and the White House Counsel whose business it is to ensure compliance with the rule of law Information will not be withheld just because i say so It will be withheld because a separate authority believes my request is well grounded in the Constitution. Let me say it as simply as I can, transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency." Did you hear what he said at the end there?

1:08:36 But it's gonna be the rule of law and transparency will be the touchstones. I think he said touch tones No, I said touch stone no. I don't think so yeah, no no. I don't think so I think I think you said touched homes Seriously well play the touch stones of this president. He says touch that touch tones You're right. He's saying toughness the hell's a touch. Let me say it as simply as I can oh transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this president. I know what touchtones are here's touch stones all right everybody it's time to take caller 100 all right we'll take you now on the C100 freedom lines just listen for the touch tones he was doing a radio promotion

Green Energy Loan Scandals and Tesla Investor Events

The $35 billion federal loan program for green energy is under scrutiny following the failures of Solyndra and Fisker. Many of the loans allegedly went to companies backed by major political donors and investment firms like Kleiner Perkins. A host recounts attending an elitist Tesla investor event where wealthy individuals used private jets to fly in and test-drive prototype electric vehicles.

solyndra· fisker· tesla· kleiner perkins· jason calacanis

1:09:20 So, uh... I mean, it's just- Justify this guy saying this one thing and then the other thing happening and not being completely out- completely beside themselves in the media in particular over something like this. Yeah, you heard him. What he said? Yeah! It was a promise But I know why this is being done This is being done because now they're getting into Fast and Furious And they're getting into Solyndra and Fisker and Husker Du And all of these different uh... You know it's 30... They got their tit in the ringer 35 billion dollars that this loan program consisted up And people are figuring out That this went to people who bundled donations Stooges Yeah, and by the way Kleiner Perkins upfront

1:10:06 They're investors in Fisker Husker do half a billion dollars and no matter which way you put it fisker Tesla These are high-end automobiles. These are elitist mobiles Jason Calacanis drives one of these things $80,000 car is not hello was over 120 wasn't it? I think it's gone down a bit Oh It's gone down. I think they came out at 125 the little dinky little Lotus Maybe the maybe let's see price Tesla original test that was 125 I'm sure of it let me see the price of the Tesla mmm it's not really giving me that course no before you get the battery doesn't say what the prices I thought it was 80 maybe the Fisker is eighty eighty grand but that's all it said that's twice the Oh Wow base price of the 2013 Tesla $49.99

1:11:09 They dropped it quite a bit. Oh wait a minute, that's the car they haven't produced yet! That's the cheap one, just a prototype. It's the one made of clay. It's a nice car, I think Oracle had some photos but never posted them But I went over to Oracle World. Yeah, and they take over the city of San Francisco And they had one of those that car because I think Ellison's deep into the investing in it is dude I remember They're gonna hate me for saying this but I don't care I remember being invited and accepting the invite on Ray Lane's G5 jet The fly from San Francisco too. I think it was Burbank It was Burbanke or

1:11:52 No, it was the Long Beach and they had the Tesla's. It was like a huge elitist thing. It was like lined up there is that eat the eBay guys playing like everyone's plane was there And they had, seriously and they had Teslas and you would wait in line. They'd have drinks an everything and then you get in almost like a... Have a few drinks first Yeah like a carnival ride! You get in line and step off the little podium into the car then you wait for the next one to come along it was your turn and then you ride around the tarmac. They had top gear. They had a whole part of track. This is this was the investor scam and this also got them money. It's hugely this thing

1:12:31 Did you go? I told you of course i went! You crazy?! So, you drove the Tesla. No no get in one. I did not get in one Why? I don't stand in line for anything uh...I did however fly it. So are you telling me there's a buncha guys flying with their private jets standing in line to ride a tesla and then they were putting up on the board who had bought one On a big LED board. That's like something you'd find out in Alabama! Yeah, we got our pigs for sale, we got the pig right here, big fat pig now anybody wants to buy this pig? Put your name on the list Like the Mechams auto auction they do that too We gotta buy it over here!

Ray Lane's Private Jet Incident and Valerie Jarrett

An anecdote describes a rough landing on investor Ray Lane's G5 private jet, which resulted in Lane being tossed through the cabin. In political news, Valerie Jarrett remains one of the few original staffers in the Obama White House. There is speculation that the administration may utilize a "false flag" event or racial tension to bolster the President's standing before the 2012 election.

ray lane· g5 jet· valerie jarrett· white house· scotch

1:13:15 So who was there that bought one? Oh, everyone was there. Bezos... Everybody bought one?! Yeah! But you couldn't- I don't think you could fit in on of these things it's a lotus... No, no, i dont' fit into lotus bodies. It's dinky. Yeah but I wasn't interested The reason why when is... You just wanted to ride free riding and usually more interested in the G5. I sat up front in the g5 and this so hilarious And it was with Bloom and Marta. There were like four people in a G5 which holds 20 people That how disgusting it is I like Ray Lane by the way, he's a good guy. And you know and I'll ride in your jet so I flew jump seat in the cockpit this is brand new and these pilots are all cocky

1:13:54 And Ray Lane's in the back, and I didn't see this but he'd know they're drinking scotch and stuff. And it was like, oh, I'm not...I don't need to wear my seatbelt on my own plane! And they land, and for some reason uh...the brakes were on lock when they landed so the rear wheels hit the tarmac and BOOM!!! The nose wheel slams down apparently Ray Lane went flying through the entire cabin with a Scotch all over himself. Rolling down the aisle. Yeah yeah And those guys are like it was the whole thing was embarrassing as I yeah, they're like showing off cuz you know I got my license like yeah Yeah, we'd you know you propeller boy. You helicopter boy watch us boom I almost broke the nose the nose gear off

1:14:35 That was a funny little bit. Yeah, anyway so that's why I think this Freedom of Information Act change bill has been implemented. To cut as part of a government massive government cover-up is what you're accusing this? Yes! Of course it's massive now the other thing that's happening is remember we talked about possible race race wars, the race card being used particularly by the Obama administration to incite violence. As a last ditch effort to win something? Yeah I think we're getting there and... We have to make a decision whether he's going run or not for one thing Well I have kind of a double whammy it might be possible that you know I think Valerie Jarrett is the only original person left in the White House and she so desperate

Alan Grayson's Rhetoric and NATO's Libya Extension

Former Congressman Alan Grayson accused Republicans of being "killers" and using racist tactics against President Obama. Meanwhile, NATO has decided to extend its mission in Libya despite the death of Muammar Gaddafi, citing requests from transitional leaders. Although the US claims no "boots on the ground," video evidence suggests NATO troops are active in the region.

alan grayson· nato· libya· paul ryan· racism

1:15:31 She may actually try some kind of false flag event where the president is at least threatened under a racial attack. and that will either, that can swing it either way. Either that will make him incredibly strong and everyone will want to support him or it will be a reason for him to quit I do think its starting here Alan Grayson who is democrat isn't he? Yep And hes on board with the program Here's what he was saying on MSNBC For Paul Ryan or any Republican to talk about this To talk about the president inciting politics of division is much like OJ saying that he's gonna devote his life to finding the real killer. They're the real killers." That's a...that's uh, them fighting words! He's saying Republicans are racist and they're killers! Yeah, that's probably one of the reasons- you know Grayson was a hot item for awhile and then uh... No, no it went on, then it was like boop who cares? Then finally people figured out that he's just a troublemaker and they got rid of him. Yeah yeah he's quite a trouble maker

1:16:38 But I think we might see that as the pivotal moment. And of course, this whole bailout of the student loans is an obvious attempt at... and it doesn't start until 2012...an obvious attempt to get young voters. Vote for me! I'll give you cash!" I don't see it any other way. It's a bribe, it is a total bribe! Vote for me and I'll give you cash. Why would you have to push this off until 2012? And then by the way when 2012 comes around forget it! Yeah sorry we tried yeah good luck there suckers why not what else would you do of course well they always do this just like did you hear about the football is where really is so just like NATO did you read about the what NATO said

1:17:27 We've made a decision, we're going to stay in Libya. Very important... Really? Huh! Oh huh?! I would have thunk it somehow. I didn't expect that why would that have ever happened let me see i have the NATO's the NAC will meet with partners on Friday is tomorrow to discuss our Libya mission and take and take a formal decision It's an ongoing process in the UN Security Council. U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Tuesday morning during a visit to Japan that some of Libya's leaders had called for NATO to continue its mission during this interim as they try to establish some new governance." So it looks like, here we go... NATO official who could not be identified understanding rules? What the hell does that mean?!

1:18:16 What kind of rule is that? Is that like a freedom of information rule? I don't know. Said the alliance has not received any formal request from the Libya's transitional government to prolong its air and naval patrols past the end of the month, so someone's lying go figure but meanwhile they are not halting their uh no-fly zone and i guess drone attacks i don't know and of course obvious NATO troops on the ground was now popping up in YouTube videos everywhere. I mean, it makes no sense to use any of that on the show because of the audio nature of it but just Google NATO troops and Libya and you'll see all kinds of guys moving out of the shot in the background. According to Obama since we're running a whole thing as NATO... Not a single boot on the ground! How could that be? It doesn't make sense

Hillary Clinton's Response to Gaddafi's Death

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton faced questions from Chris Wallace regarding her "we came, we saw, he died" comment about Muammar Gaddafi. Clinton refused to express regret, instead calling for a UN investigation into the circumstances of his death to establish the rule of law. She emphasized the need for the new Libyan government to be inclusive and seek reconciliation.

hillary clinton· gaddafi· fox news· chris wallace· investigation

1:19:06 Somebody's lying to us. You think? Well, how about Lucifer I think she may be lying as she was asked on Fox News by the guy who used to be it was that guy who used to be like on CBS or NBC Or something Chris Wallace is that his name uh... what could be a man's issue you talk about it he asked her about her or her quote which i'm calling the fainty feety killy we can't we saw and died question that did do you regret what you said secretary and if i may do you regret what you said and do you feel qaddafi was wronged where they got what was coming to now one is set up he basically

1:19:54 gave her an opening to completely skirt around the entire issue, which she does ad nauseam. Luckily Chris comes back in the end. Well let's have an investigation. I fully support United Nations investigation and I fully support the transitional National Councils own call for independent investigation. I supported on the merits of because it's important to find the facts and I support it as part of what will be a challenging transition process. You know, the Transitional National Council today is going to declare the liberation of Libya they are then going to announce a new government

1:20:33 They need to make it clear that it will be a government to unify the country, to seek reconciliation. To make everyone who supported the former regime as long they don't have blood on their hands feel safe and included in a new Libya. And so from my perspective I think such an investigation would be very important to establish accountability, rule of law and pave the way for the inclusive answer the question democratic future that the Libyans tell me they want. Secretary do you regret what you said? Well I'm not going comment on that we didn't even know what was happening at that time because it was an unconfirmed report

1:21:15 What? What kind of an answer is that?! I'm not even sure- who do you think you are, i'm not even going to comment on that because it was an unconfirmed rumor at the time. A democratic future... Unconfirmed rumor at the time so i'm not gonna comment on what you said Well, uh, y'know, i'm not gonna comment on that We didn't even know what was happening at that time because it was an unconfirmed report What does that mean!? I don't know if it was confirmed then she would have commented. What does it make? Whether this is confirmed or not, did you regret saying it is the question and she won't say! And Bollas says... She obviously doesn't regret it No of course not But she hasn't got the guts to say that There's only one thing I've heard Hillary Clinton Lucifer herself Lady MacDuff Say that is the truth and thats this

Blue Coat Systems and Syrian Internet Censorship

California-based Blue Coat Systems is allegedly providing equipment to the Syrian government to block internet access and track dissidents. While the State Department claims to be investigating, Blue Coat's client list includes numerous US agencies such as the CIA and DHS. The company, based in Sunnyvale, denies making direct sales to Syrian censors.

1:21:59 But now, you know I want to try some other things. I wanna get back to writing and maybe some teaching working on women and girls around the world That's the only thing that is truth She wants to work on some women and girls Around the World! Around The World! Try to catch up with Bill who has a huge bunch of scalps Yeah like in competition who gets the most babes She was on BBC We've talked about hubris before About the techno experts about our own State Department training Twitterers twitterers And I mean she I was blown away by this now you have there's one little side note to this You might have seen the article The article that came out was from. I think it was actually

1:22:56 I think the State Department might have released this. The equipment developed by California-based Blue Coat Systems is allegedly being used by Syria's autocratic government to block access to the internet and crack down on dissidents who've been protesting against President Assad for nearly eight months Are you familiar with blue coat systems? No, but I just want to throw in as an aside when we're talking about the Oakland riots earlier and there was a thousand people. And then yesterday after they cracked heads there were three thousand. And then as the night fell Twitter went down. Oh this happens all the time!

1:23:35 So I believe this is a, you know the State Department's like yeah we're gonna look into this deal. We can't have American companies selling stuff to countries to black the internet and then i look at bluecoat dot com Blue Coat Systems a list of their clients Air National Guard, Army Internet Cafe, Army Operations Center, CENTCOM, Central Intelligence Agency, Defense Commissary, Defense Information Systems Agency Department of Defense Dependent Schools, Department of Energy, Department of Homeland Security. Of course they're doing it! These guys are... these are the guys

Hillary Clinton on Electronic Curtains and Iran

Hillary Clinton described the Iranian regime's internet jamming as a "21st-century equivalent of the barbed wire and fences" of the Soviet era. She told the BBC that the US is training people in Iran to circumvent these "electronic curtains" and provide communication freedom. Clinton admitted that the US is experimenting with various technologies, some of which are more effective than others.

hillary clinton· iran· bbc· electronic curtain· jamming

1:24:12 They sell the boxes and then Hillary goes on the BBC, and I think she's tired And I think she'd like man no one gives a crap these damn Brits who cares no one in America is watching this we're doing a lot of work to try to Come up with technologies that can circumvent the jamming in the interjamming don't be jamming the inner webs eruptions and the tracking that the regime are engaged in right now. We are providing technology, some of which is more effective than others we are certainly training people... What country do you think she's talking about?

1:24:53 A lot of countries, Iran. But we have also seen the regime in Iran impose what amounts to an electronic curtain. It's the 21st century equivalent of the barbed wire and the fences, and the dogs...

1:25:30 The fences and the dogs, and the pits... This is her analogy to the jamming. And the moats, and fences, barking cats, boiling people! And the boiling oil, and the spears, and arrows that the old Soviet Union used because They come at it from the same mentality. They want totalitarian control over what you learn and what you say, even what you think and how you worship and all the things that go to the heart of human dignity and human freedom. So yes we are doing everything we can now I will quickly add that we're experimenting. Sometimes we think something will work, it turns out not to work. Like make everyone's icon green? Sometimes we get maybe a year ahead of the regime's efforts and then they catch up and then we have to go back to the drawing boards but I want to assure your

1:26:21 viewers here in this third world country known as Britain your viewers that we are committed to doing everything we can to provide as much communication freedom inside and outside of Iran two people trying to speak out for their rights as possible How unbelievable. Just an aside here, I think there's some irony in the name blue code because let me just read from the Blue Code of Silence entry in the Book of Knowledge. The blue code and when you hear it, you realize what is a blue code of silence also known as the blue shield is an unwritten rule among police officers United States not to report on another colleague's errors misconducts or crimes! It's blue coat

CHAPTER 30 / 55 Discussion

Blue Code of Silence and Media Messaging

The "Blue Code of Silence" refers to an unwritten rule among police officers to protect colleagues from reports of misconduct. This concept is linked to the name of Blue Coat Systems, which produces web proxy software. The discussion shifts to the power of media messaging and the importance of "reasonable deconstruction" to avoid being swayed by government propaganda.

blue code of silence· police misconduct· media messaging· sunnyvale· proxy

1:27:07 But that has other implications. Who were the blue coats? Well, let's find out. Yeah... I'm going to the Book of Knowledge! The blue coats. So, uh... I think blue coat would have been better Yeah no i agree it's just like I tried to stop you before you put your foot in the mouth That's okay I can go off the deep end this make any difference? I wonder who invested in them Let's see Here is Blue Coat Systems and they curiously have a police badge as their logo Curiously! Maybe I'm not too far off Let's see who was in management Board of Directors You're out of Sunnyvale that's just a good thing

1:27:49 It used to be called Cash Flow. I guess they gave up on whatever that was, some sort of a... Whatever business- They make a canine web proxy, that's what they do. Canine dog. Hey look! They're public. We should invest in these guys. NASDAQ BCSI Yeah 16 bucks 71 cents So you go look them up and see who the bosses are? Uh yeah i'd like to know who uh Who their investors are That would be kind of cool Well the public is No, but these guys have angels or A-round. That's been long... that was when they were cash flow and I think that's long over It would be nice to know. I don't think their investors are meaningful. Well the area using American software to censor internet experts say blue coat denies sale to Syrian censors We didn't do it! Blue Coat Systems acquires S7

1:28:40 Hmm blue coat competes acquisition of packeteer. These guys are grabbing things up left and right yeah Are you kidding me ash? They're rocking it band with police helps corporate net keeps corporate networks humming Bluecoat systems corporations, this might be a good investment Anyway I just love how she just says we're training they were training people in Iran don't worry about it We're training them as nothing don't worry about it Don't worry about it Yeah, we've got all kinds of systems. We're badass that way. Huh... interesting. Well anyway that's uh we're gonna be censored here it was just a foregone conclusion before they turn on the and you see all you can if you're not going to the amazon dot com site to buy some refill ink cartridges you're not gonna get on the net

1:29:35 definitely is going to push us out of business at some point. I want to remind people that one of the reasons you listen to this show so you can make sure that everybody who likes the show thinks along a certain line, reasonable deconstruction when they...so they're not believing all the bull crap But I honestly believe, and between you and me if it was a lot of the times i'll go off the track very easily but you have your attitude about stuff. And I'll be return to the more sensible view. And I think working together...I think what's one of the reasons that show where he just have one guy blathering never works because he can be just as easily swayed It is extremely powerful The media messaging and everything that goes on outside this show

Pre-Crime Themes in Dexter and The Mentalist

Recent episodes of popular television shows "Dexter" and "The Mentalist" are noted for propagating police state themes. "Dexter" featured a "see something, say something" message with unusual audio cadence, while "The Mentalist" explored the concept of "pre-crime" and arresting individuals before they offend. These instances are viewed as examples of media being used to normalize surveillance and preventative policing.

dexter· the mentalist· pre-crime· see something say something· mind control

1:30:24 Oh, it's very very powerful. Much more powerful than what we do all we can do is kind of you know slap people around a little bit to try to keep them noticing that Obama keeps saying look and folks for some unknown reason but Well on that note I have two clips normally this is your gig I have two clips from higher highly rated dramatized series That propagate the means of memes of the police state The first one is Dexter. This is from the most recent episode Actually, yes We believe that's our killer signature so if you see something say something and now that I listen to that clip It is so weird the cadence of this actresses voice it's almost like it was dubbed in later So if you see it's like said so clearly did you notice that? Yeah, it's like it was looped actually Yes we believe that's our killer signature

1:31:23 So if you see something, say something. It's a whole different audio background too. Yeah so if you see something say something. But it's like... The ambience is different but it's almost like she's mind controlling me. So if you see something say something. I believe that's our killer signature. Repeat after me! If you see something say something. Now that was bad but man the whammy came from the mentalist. Before it's a crime, it's pre-crime! I thought I saw something in Tim's eyes yesterday but I wanted to make sure so last night I did What'd you see? He's a man on autopilot Set to kill If we weren't there to stop him yesterday... ...I'm confident he would have pulled the trigger You got all that from his eyes? Pretty much I'm not doubting you

1:32:23 Fascinated. Well, there was the tension in his body as well and... The overcoat but uh... Those were enough. The trouble is I mean even if you are right we can't arrest an offender before he's offended It's better than after don't you think? Oh! Yeah, I saw that episode. Better than after. I was thinking of that clip. Better than after don't ya think?! Don't you think? Yeah, no I was kind of put off by that too. It was definitely a pre-crime message And you liked The Mentalist That's one of your favorite shows Yeah, it's probably why he didn't pull that quote, that clip Maybe the guy is some joker writer who isn't getting it

Movie Contagion and Vaccine Propaganda

The movie "Contagion" is identified as a vehicle for vaccine promotion, with a consultant from Doctors Without Borders admitting they intentionally made the "blogger" character the villain. The film aims to counter "misinformation" spread on the internet regarding vaccine safety. The discussion references the controversy surrounding Andrew Wakefield's withdrawn paper on immunizations.

contagion· jude law· vaccines· cdc· andrew wakefield

1:33:04 convinced that, or maybe was I don't know. I didn't look...I was very upset by that myself yeah There was a very interesting discussion one of our producers uh i think posted this on noagendanewsnetwork.com and he said you know with his specific instructions what the clip this was a conversation about the CDC and vaccines I think it was from C-SPAN And this goes right into how mainstream media of all forms, not just television, not just news but also movies are being manipulated to propagate an agenda regardless of what the agenda is and whether we agree with it or not which we don't I think. I can safely say. I'd like you to listen to this bit about the movie Contagion now we discussed this movie being basically a whole vaccine

1:33:55 You know, get your vaccine and get your flu shots. But I didn't know that it went to this level. This is a two minute clip but well worth listening to. It's interesting we had a discussion before this started and one of the real problems today that didn't exist 25 years ago is the Internet. And it's a great thing problem because once you're on the internet you're there and I was saying to somebody, you can go and search on vaccines. Some of the sites that will pop up have names like the National Center for Immunization which turns out to be an anti-vaccine site. It sounds like it's – so unless you know you're at the Center for Disease Control or World Health Organization or GAVI or something else

1:34:38 ministry of truth a lot of misinformation spreads and so even though the the andrew wakefield actually filled with steve uh... paper was um... withdrawn on that information continues to circulate in ten people still talk about i'm sorry this is a good way up stop stop stop yet you have to back it up as he said something then he had like a little subliminal thing that he threw in like andrew wakefield not steve does that what it was Wonder what that was about who Steve Wakefield. I don't know Now look him up in the book of knowledge where you said, I'm sorry This is actually the inside CFR podcast this is a so it wasn't C-SPAN But this is the podcast version of The Council on Foreign Relations one of my favorites all your buddies Yeah And now you're about to hear Sophie Delaunay Sophie Delaunay who's executive director

CHAPTER 33 / 55 Discussion

Doctors Without Borders and Global Vaccine Campaigns

Sophie Delaunay of Doctors Without Borders discussed the challenges of vaccine campaigns in Nigeria and Pakistan, where religious and political concerns have led to anti-vaccine movements. She noted a "risky compact" in Pakistan where the military used immunization programs to gather DNA samples from Osama bin Laden's family. This breach of trust is cited as a major hurdle for global health initiatives.

doctors without borders· nigeria· pakistan· polio· bin laden

1:35:35 of the US section of Doctors Without Borders, which we have lauded in the past and I'm about to change my entire opinion. So what we need is an information campaign unfortunately governments are at all time low in terms of their own you know confidence levels and so it's hard to get the message out but we have to keep going at it And by the way it isn't only... We talked about it in Marin County The reason polio broke out in northern Nigeria was because of problems with an anti-vaccine movement there related to concerns, you know religious leaders had on what was being done. We've had the same thing happen recently in Pakistan we had a situation where the military used immunization as a potential way to try and get into and get samples of bin Laden's family so this is a risky compact

1:36:24 If you think about it, you go into people's houses and say hopefully the female vaccinator says I'm here. You have to trust me it is safe because we tell you it is safe and any of these breaks in confidence are huge problems. in when we I was an advisor on the movie contagion we made Jude Law's character the blogger, The Bad Guy. And what's been very interesting since is that the blogging community that deals with health related stuff on a very active basis has largely supported um... the portrayal of Jude Law's character. Wow! Wait a minute she says

1:37:08 The blogging community, okay so the bad guy is the blogger and the blogging community to insult and injury let's put it that way. She says that blogging community I guess she knows who if there's a spokesperson I don't know who is yeah it was supports the bad guy at the bloggers of bad guy? Even worse she says when I was a consultant that's why we made Jude Law That's what, because they fund I guess they funded the movie. That's why we made Jude Law and this is she's from Doctors Without Borders which frightens me you listen to her again. Yes so I should just know that's one of the reasons that in when we were an advisor on the movie Contagion we made Jude Law's character The Blogger the bad guy. That's pretty heavy! That's one of the reasons we did it...to mind-control you So bloggers are bad guys?

1:38:01 Yes, well no not according to the spokesperson of bloggers. We all agree you know it's obvious the science is in interesting Well that's depressing Council on foreign relations and doctors without borders That's that that depressed we have to find a new new charity yeah, we do there was more vaccine news a government advisory panel recommended today that in addition to young girls boys Good idea.

ADHD Medication for Preschoolers and Pediatric Guidelines

The American Academy of Pediatrics has revised its guidelines to allow doctors to prescribe ADHD medication, such as Ritalin, to preschoolers. Critics argue this is a growth strategy for the pharmaceutical industry that dopes up children to make them more submissive in class. Additionally, there is a push to expand the use of the Gardasil HPV vaccine to young boys.

1:38:49 That's a dead-ass vaccine. Even the military guys don't want to use it! No, of course not you don't be shot up with some test vaccine and what's happening now in the United States of Europe they are now working on legislation that makes children's medical files when they're 15 private. So parents, it literally says this, parents will not be allowed to access their child's medical file once they turn 15 And this of course is all to, you know the same thing that happened in California once you're 12. You can go get a flu shot or an HPV shot without telling your parents This is the biggest growth market for the pharmaceutical industry Is children and shooting them up with stuff that they may not need They've already doped them up with stuff I mean essentially every kid who's hyperactive which seems like a natural thing

1:39:51 You know, they give Ritalin and everything else they can to keep them so they're passive and submissive in class. And it's less of a hassle for the teacher so you keep the kids on drugs if you claim that have all kinds of ailments when they don't or just kid. Last week The American Academy of Pediatrics revised its ADHD treatment guidelines giving doctors a green light to prescribe drugs even to preschoolers Oh god. Really? Yes! Preschoolers have to have ADHD Preschoolers are supposed to be morons. You're supposed to go... What, are they supposed to be Albert Einstein who by the way never spoke until he was like in some later years? Which means he had been doped up and we never would have had an Albert Einstein because they would've given him some drugs This is The American Academy of Pediatrics who has revised their treatment guidelines saying- There are drug companies that bought and sold these people it's a scandal

1:40:51 It goes beyond scandal. In my book, John this is a complete outrage! It's an outrage! Drug up kids with Ritalin when they're in preschool... How old is the preschooler? Two? Three? Four?! Well it would be any age before you know kindergarten so could be like one Or just out of the woods, just born. Mrs Smith we're so sorry your brand new baby is crying I think it's got ADHD. It's crying too much. We're going to give your baby some Ritalin. Oh thank you doctor. Thank you doctor that's so nice! Whatever the doctor says...I'll do

Insurance Fraud and the HPV Vaccine Scam

Young women are reportedly being subjected to frequent biopsies and pap smears following "pre-cancerous" cell findings, which some claim is a form of insurance fraud. These procedures are often used to pressure patients into receiving the Gardasil vaccine. The medical establishment is criticized for using fear tactics to drive up insurance billings and pharmaceutical sales.

hpv· gardasil· insurance fraud· pap smear· biopsy

1:41:35 There's another scam which I'm very upset about that i have now tracked in four different cases here in California. Here's how it goes, a woman goes to get a pap smear they call you on Monday early say oh you might have pre-cancerous cells we have to do a biopsy then they do the biopsy and then it's like well you know we gotta keep an eye on it you gotta have a biopsy a Pap smear test every month and a biopsy every three months And this is all part of this HPV scam and it's insurance fraud. These are young women under 30, and it's well known that... This why insurance rates are so high! Yeah, pap smears- It's just everything's an insurance fraud basically. It's well known that pap smear in women under thirty can vary wildly because there're all kinds of hormones going on there

1:42:33 You know, and then biopsies like... Disgusting. It scares the crap out of them. Well it just scares the crap out of them that's for sure And this is going on all the time and it's the same thing and at the end of that you really should get the Gardasil vaccine, you know? By the way your boyfriend he should probably have it too in case there's oral sex going on or something Yeah, well. Great medical establishment. Self-policing. Just makes me nuts! Any more good news? I got tons of good news. This was kind of cute if you want something cute... Want something cute? No. Okay then.. I did get a clip that i lost and I'm going to explain it to people and unfortunately erased it. It really irks me but

1:43:38 but I got somebody's gotta get this clip cuz it was its Rick Perry saying Constitutional she could can't say the word constitution constant time to see the constitute you should trip to have some I can even do it so so ridiculous but anyway I'm sorry and it's interesting because there's a lot of talk now about the debates and that Rick Perry is probably not going to show up in a couple other near this they're doing 30 debates until his numbers will go up if he doesn't show up Yeah, but what's happening is the Hollywood industry is freaking out because if they don't have Perry to paré Romney they got no show. This is why people are tuning in so I think that Perry is holding out saying you know what? You want me to do all your damn shows? It's like every channel gets a shot and this is such a bull crap thing. There was even one on Bloomberg!

Rick Perry's Debate Strategy and China's Blogger Crackdown

Rick Perry is reportedly considering skipping future Republican debates, a move that could impact television ratings for networks like Bloomberg. Meanwhile, China has begun a crackdown on "freewheeling microblogs" and popular entertainment to maintain absolute political censorship. In the US, Herman Cain is facing increased scrutiny as his poll numbers rise, with predictions of a "lobbyist" scandal emerging.

1:44:30 That's the next one, right? I think the one on Tuesday. No no they already did the Bloomberg one Yeah it got... nobody watched it Well they probably got better ratings than they usually get Oh yeah But now Perry is saying you know uh I'm not going to participate in this and of course he's not gonna do it until He gets some like a special You know some kind of uh you know like On The Road To The White House thing This is so obvious this manipulation that's going on And so the Hollywood guys are flipping out. They're like, what are we going to do? We got to have our main star in there! Yeah he is the star So that's why they're pulling Herman Cain You watch and Herman Cain is going to get busted for being a lobbyist That's coming...they've gotta spike it It's like we've seen it now

So front page of New York Times, I should have brought this up a few minutes ago China reigns in entertainment and bloggers So they're going after the bloggers, I guess. They've got... They're also political censorship in this authoritarian state remains absolute but for years the Communist Party has a tolerant creeping liberalism and popular culture tacitly allowing everything from popular knockoffs of American Idol style talent shows to freewheeling micro blogs. Now that's enough they said Enough! Enough of those freewheeling microblogs We'll not have any of that

Google Chrome Tracking and the Vagina Advertising Meme

Google Chrome is criticized for its tracking capabilities, while Facebook is noted for using cookies to follow users across the internet. A "vagina meme" is observed in recent television programming and advertisements, such as the "My V" diary ad. A montage of clips from various shows demonstrates a significant increase in the use of the words "vagina" and "penis" on network TV.

google chrome· facebook cookies· vagina· penis· advertising

1:46:18 And apparently there's some sort of a menace of noisy birds in Terre Haute, Indiana. Front page news. Now you're really stretching it? No! It's front page news on the New York Times and angry... I think it's just a plug for Angry Birds So I got to..I went to the Chrome browser Yeah Have you ever used it? Uh once They have apps Yeah yeah I know and they have Angry Birds Yeah You can play it on Chrome I know Why can't you just play it on any browser? I mean, what's the deal. It isn't just a flash animation and i don't get it. No, no...I think you've said that its a deal Its a Google Deal to get you use the Chrome Browser which calls back home base on everything your doing. I finally used Firefox and I just blocked all Facebook cookies because I was tired Every page you land on has a like button but you get the Facebook Cookies. Im just blocking them now. You know, I cant log into Facebook but BOOHOO

1:47:18 Boo-hoo. What are they cooking you for constantly? To track you across all sites to sell you, Biosh! Sell you what?! I don't know... ads They don't need the track you to do that No, just saying. I was wrong though. Uh..I thought that the uh... outburst of vagina The use of the word vagina on network television Was to prepare us for the coming of vagina based ads Now i was wrong because we're also going to have... Go back to the book and find it in here. No, don't cross it out let me finish I think were going to have not only the use of the word vagina and advertising but also use of the word penis

1:48:06 Because under the wire, which totally discredits the entire New York Times article that said oh you know women are now producing shows they're empowered and we have to use the vagina word I'd say it's kind of a toss-up between vagina and penis as this montage proves. Penis Vaginas A penis A vagina Penis Vagina? Penis Vagina Penis Penis Penis Penis. Penis. Vagina. Penises. Penises. Penises. Vagina. Penises. Penises. Penises. Vaginas, penises... Vaginas. Penis.

The last guy I dated never liked going to new places

1:48:55 Sounds like a guy with a really big penis. One thing's for sure, it's hilarious! Yeah I'm laughing like there is no tomorrow That's A LOT of penis So October 13th you made the prediction that the vagina meme would be within 6 weeks would appear in advertisements We already had an ad couple shows ago which was My V Which was a diary written by a vagina Now we're just waiting for actual use of word so what do i have 3 more weeks? Yeah, it looks like it. And this is just to prove that there IS a red book I know people have been promising to take a picture of it But they haven't the red book this red book is almost full by the way Well one thing's for sure we ain't getting any money from the vagina industry I'm gonna show my support by donating to no agenda imagine all the people who could do that oh yeah, that'd be fab

Camp MoFo and International Birthday Donations

A listener in Austin, Texas, who is also a landlord, surprised a show producer by using the "in the morning" greeting. This occurred at the site of "Camp MoFo," a new operating base for the show's community. International donations arrived from Australia, including a $144 gift from Danny Haynes, who calculated the amount based on his birth year and age.

1:49:51 We do have some people to thank this week for helping us keep the show going and actually helping themselves because this is essentially the twice weekly reminder that we're inundated with bullcrap. And, we need to be constantly slapped in the face to not fall... Anyone could backslide into thinking pre-no agenda thoughts? Oh, it's very easy. Yeah I could happen to me and i just said earlier so what like the show helps me as a matter of fact but also helps did that people who are supporting us. I'd like to mention an on-the-spot personal donation at the start of our segment here John you got cash from somebody came up to you? I did not miss Mickey she was in Austin for two days doing is he has setting up before operating base for Camp MoFo

1:50:49 And she hung out with a couple of our producers who we also met on the Hot Pockets Tour, Mike and Jane. And they donated $111.11 on the spot tour and we are very appreciative of that. Put you ahead of me again! Although there was something weird so you were leasing this place obviously...and the owner came by while Nikki because where do we want the walls painted in different color So she's organizing that and there is a bookcase that has to be put in. And the owner comes by, and you know what he says to Mickey? In the morning? Exactly! He says, in the morning, and Mickey's like what?! In the morning!? Really Camp MoFo really??

1:51:36 Camp MoFo. He's like, it's Casa Di Tarantula! Okay we'll stick with that. I know which isn't bad either if you think about it. Well I might stick with the original but he was like really? Camp Mofo really so the guy is a listener how cool is that now no I just doing due diligence you he's he's listening to be probably works for NSA for all you know So, in the morning John and Adam this is Danny Haynes and Grace Staines.

That's the breakfast of champions

Precision Agriculture and LightSquared Interference

A grain farmer from Illinois donated to the show and highlighted the importance of GPS precision in modern agriculture. He expressed concern that the LightSquared network could interfere with GPS guidance systems used to minimize "inputs" like seed and fertilizer. Precision ag tech is essential for farmers to remain profitable while dealing with high costs from companies like Monsanto.

1:54:35 Illinois 5555 in the morning gentlemen just want to tip my hat to John for sticking up for the farmers in the fields on episode 348 being a grain farmer myself using precision ag tech I wouldn't appreciate having light square effect of performance of our costly machinery slash tech besides helping stop driver fatigue throughout our long days in the field GPS guidance also helps us generate yield maps how many bushels per acre we're producing and minimize excess costs from overlaps since big companies like Monsanto are giving us the shaft with the peak prices of seed, fertilizer and other inputs. Interesting that's a term they use. Inputs. We need to use precision egg to minimize our inputs while maximizing our outputs aka just getting by

1:55:25 It says it's not used by all farmers. Its use is growing every year as it becomes more accurate and affordable I'd like to give some karma shout out to all the farmers in the fields during the harvest season We could use some here that for field fires and three road accidents so far Thanks for your ever awesome show makes auto steering in our fields 14 hours a day More entertaining given a little car. All right, here's for the farmers in the fields everybody you've got karma. Because I thought it was only the GNSS that was affected by light square and it turns out that And even based on a clip you played this is the problem. Is that these? I didn't know as that sophisticated shows you what I know But it's a problem for the farmers doing, you know They won't be able to essentially plow in straight rows anymore all over the place They'll be doing crop circles before you know

Atlas Shrugged Critique and Job Search Karma

A listener from Ontario donated to the show after finishing "Atlas Shrugged," characterizing author Ayn Rand as a "douchebag."

NPR Underwriting and Fast-Moving Consumer Goods

A host attempted to obtain a "rate card" from NPR affiliate KPCC by posing as a representative for a consumer products group. The goal is to prove that NPR "underwriting" is functionally identical to commercial advertising. While NPR claims underwriting is for the public good, critics argue it is a targeted marketing product sold to reach specific demographics.

If you'd like to audit it's six hundred thousand by the way right but it was basically it was a whole like, you know advertise with us advertise with us and then they said send an email to underwriter underwriting at KPCC dot org so I sent him an email then I said hey you know client of mine with a fast moving consumer products group yeah I faked up a little bit I was very interested in advertising, specifically in the Southern California area. Could you please send me your rate card? I haven't received anything back." You'll get one! I want to get one because that would prove... unless they say hey just so you know it's not advertising its underwriting but they're gonna I believe that they would send me... Do we really need to prove this anymore

2:00:46 I think it's important to have it on paper that just says, okay we're not about underwriting. Underwriting implies that you are sponsoring good programming they're actually out there saying do you want to reach people? Are cool people who listen to us? You are the product of that! Yeah no, underwriting implies that you are paying for something for the public good not to promote yourself That's what they're doing though. Well? Did we do Dan Manning, uh I have a...

Bank Payment Plans and Whistleblower Risks

Listeners are increasingly using automated bank bill-pay systems to send donation checks to the show, which often includes free postage. The conversation shifts to the risks faced by whistleblowers, mentioning George Thomas Wainwright, a remote operator who spoke out against BP. Wainwright recently moved to Australia to avoid potential retaliation from corporate or government entities.

2:04:36 Right? Yeah, we got new rings and we may change the color of the ring. We may be finalizing the silver-coated ring, the gold plate, a silver over model has always been you know don't do product but we felt like when someone's sponsoring the show and you know for a thousand dollars and it would be cool to have a nightclub but it really is uh... if really is a big hassle and to be quite honest about it yeah but its you know it did the funny thing I got a note who was that? I dont have the thing in front of me actually ill plug it next show, one of the knights sent in a check and sealed

2:05:34 Oh cool! I'm liking this idea of checks more and more. I think that's really a good idea on the Dvorak.org slash NA page you'll find out where you can send your check to yeah and it turns out one of our producers sent a note in saying that there, I didn't realize this because I thought there was some sort of its charge for this but he says at his bank they can set up an installment plan where something I don't know what the amount is in this case but he says the bank paid the postage which makes no sense to me. Huh good was that Campy Bank of America? No it would be any bad bank but there yeah, but they yeah apparently those thing has picked up and they just put you on some plan they did you have a big I guess if you have a minimum in your checking account day

2:06:27 They figure that 44 cents a month is not that big of deal. And the rest of it's automated, these are machine cranked out checks they don't even have a signature to signature on file and it comes in a... It's obviously done mechanically and so just probably doesn't cost the bank anything except for the forty four cents Do you remember who George Thomas Wainwright was? Name rings a bell. Yeah, he was one of the whistleblowers against BP He was the remote operator Why funny you mentioned that? so you'll note that BP Just got a new license to drill offshore right So this Thomas George Thomas Wainwright key six months ago.

George Wainwright's Death and BP Drilling Approval

Whistleblower George Wainwright was reportedly killed in a shark attack in Australia just one week before BP received new offshore drilling approvals. Critics find the timing highly suspicious, suggesting the "accident" may have been a way to eliminate a legal loose end. The incident highlights the extreme dangers faced by individuals who challenge powerful energy corporations.

I don't see how it could get any more creative than suicide. I mean yeah I think they've run out of good ideas on how to kill people No! They came up with a great one Oh really? Killed in a shark attack. He was eaten by a great white shark apparently, yeah and then one week later boom approval for BP okay. Coincidence I think not! Poor guy...I mean what are the likelihood of getting eaten by a shark? Shark victim George Wainwright here's the classic from Aja Stiles in The Sydney Morning Herald

2:08:18 Into the headline says it all shark victim George Wainwright was living the dream. Yeah After just getting by he was living the dream Unbelievable 32 years old now, do you think that worked? Huh I wonder if they can train sharks to do that Now they probably kill them first and throw into this yeah, just fed him to the Sharks Yeah because of course there's no evidence right because it's in the Sharks belly Poor guy. There you go, that's why whistleblowers have extra protection with the Obama administration Remember that? Whistleblower is important Very very important So we haven't... We didn't actually do this episode of our little mini sub show But since it was so eloquently described on some news show That I picked it up from I felt that we could once again play Win!

CHAPTER 45 / 55 Discussion

The Killing of Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki in Yemen

Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki, the 16-year-old son of Al Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki, was killed in a US drone strike in Yemen two weeks after his father's death. While the US suggests he may have been a militant, his family denies these claims. Some theorists suggest the elder Al-Awlaki was a CIA asset who was extracted, and the son was a "loose end" that had to be eliminated to close the story.

We didn't actually do this episode of our little mini sub show But since it was so eloquently described on some news show That I picked it up from I felt that we could once again play Win! Lose or Drone! That's right, now we have the junior category

2:09:18 According to a Facebook tribute page, he liked watching The Simpsons, reading Harry Potter and listening to Snoop Dogg. He was a US citizen born in Colorado. 16-year old Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki was like so many other kids his age But he happened to be the son of Anwar al-Awlaki, the Al Qaeda leader seen by US intelligence as a key operative in Yemen. Two weeks after his father was killed in an US drone strike in Yemen... ...the younger al-Awlaki was also killed there along with a teenage cousin and several others. The same strike may have killed a prominent Al Qaeda militant

2:10:03 It's not clear why al-Awlaki son was with that man. Was the teenager a militant? There is no evidence from anything he wrote, anything he said or anything that family have said that he was a militant By the same token He could have decided to embark on the path of jihad after his father death Such honor and duty goes deep in Yemeni society I've two words for you Predator drones! I'm telling ya I mean there's a couple of things here i want to mention. First of all, I did a little research on this son and it begins with that because what I was looking into was Yamini culture on an article that was written in the New York Times some months before Alaki died or was killed uh... and it talked about his wife

2:10:55 that he was married and that none of his friends in Yemen knew about this wife. And so I, and then it said in the New York Times, I don't have the specific quote but is something like, It's Yemeni culture not to mention your wife! And so a woman who was the hookers or just in general in general you never mentioned her and supposedly, and it's so I one of the somebody contacted on Twitter of all places. It was an Middle Easterner Described the situation and then then she did more research because she was a little baffled by this story in The New York Times herself for some reason and

2:11:36 and finds that the only mention of his wife was in this New York Times article, that he had a wife. That would create a son and she says that it's true that you don't introduce your wife to the males because as you don't do that in Arab culture at all but if you had friends at all you would mention it apparently he never mentioned it She said that was the odd part So she thinks the whole thing is... And I was trying to get to the following theory And I never completely got there, but I think you know. I'm close enough from stopping which is that he never had a son He was never married. He was always a CIA guy He was extracted But there was a loose end and that was and that was the kid it was the kid it was the kid who's either fake or

2:12:21 pretending to be a son so he could be part of the team, he could have been a handler or it could have been...he could've been the kid's handler we don't know. But his son was obviously part of the whole scheme and had to be extracted also And so they had to kill him, if they did. And close this book on the story because otherwise I'd got be left hanging out to dry if it ever got out So that's what kind of what I was trying to figure out If that might be a plausible analysis and I think it is. I'm totally buying that It was loose end and he had couple buddies with him and they get rid them too Right Cleaned up

Greece's Potential Exit from the Eurozone

Economists suggest that the most logical path for Greece is to exit the Eurozone and return to the drachma. This would allow the country to devalue its currency and grow its economy through exports and tourism, rather than enduring a decade of "savage fiscal austerity." Staying in the fixed exchange rate system is predicted to drive the Greek economy into a total depression.

greece· euro· drachma· imf· recession

2:13:07 So we're done, we're out. Yeah so we know Obama gets off on it. Lockheed can get his nose job and shave his beard and he'll be teaching at Columbia some other guy And you can go live in Australia Oh my goodness You want to roll something out before we close up? I still have a couple of lagging clips which are still part of the EU fiasco which is the again the guy from the IMF discussing what really has to happen in Greece. Namely they do have

2:13:44 go bankrupt and get out of the euro. And I think this is part one, I've got two clips one is a little more explanatory but the first one I think it's the most logical thing ever heard and of course if this happens we can expect to stock market not to go past 12 thousand like its currently doing but to reverse course. And this is Greece must exit the euro just to be sure? Leave Euro Part 2. Maybe in the past year there were talks or at least thoughts that Greece would get out of the eurozone and go back to the drachma, and I would like your thoughts on that. I mean i don't think that's going to happen but I think that they could pinpoint some of the problems that are going on

2:14:26 and alternative, but whoever would like to handle that question. Maybe none of you would like to? I should mention that I wrote a Financial Times piece two years ago indicating the reasons why Greece would exit the Euro and sadly events have really borne that out. Basically, the problem is that Greece having as large a public sector deficit problem as they've got, you can't reduce that in a fixed exchange rate system without promoting an enormous recession. Greece's economy has already contracted by 12%. They've still got a budget deficit that is 10% of GDP if they persist in the IMF approach of not

2:15:15 devaluing their currency, not writing down the debt but simply engaging in savage fiscal austerity. They are going to drive that economy totally into the ground creating political unrest and making it very difficult for them to meet their budget targets. The logical thing for Greece to do would be to write down its debt by 50%, 60% but they would also well advised exit the Euro that would at least give the economy a chance to grow through exports, through improving the tourist sector. Otherwise I'm afraid that Greece is condemned

2:15:58 a decade of not only deep recession but this is more like a depression. Anybody else? Yeah, if I may and uh... i'm a financial act sector expert more than an economist so let me just say doctor lockman isn't a minority among the economists have spoken with because i think he would that he would admit there doesn't mean it's wrong it's gonna rock it's going to be awesome is is now raw Wow. And the second clip, which you don't have to play I'll just explain he there's another debate that continues about how bad it would be and how things would fall apart if they switched out of the euro and Lachman the IMF guy former IMF guy says uh he's heard this before and then he gives example after example after example of where this has happened without all this dislocation that everyone else is worried sick about

CHAPTER 47 / 55 Discussion

Euro Value Fluctuations and Repatriation Theory

The Euro has risen to $1.42, a move some analysts attribute to "repatriation" during a financial disaster. While a high Euro is bad for exports—making products like Mercedes-Benz more expensive—it increases the value of the currency for use in international bailouts. The hosts encourage listeners in the EU to donate while their currency's value remains high against the dollar.

euro· exchange rate· repatriation· bailouts· exports

2:16:54 So, it's an interesting... this is not going away anytime soon and I... It's gonna be fun to watch. Well i think the Euro... As long as donations keep coming in, it'll be fun to watch! No kidding! And by the way, I want to remind people out there that are in the EU your money's worth a lot of you know so it doesn't take much to get You know if you like I think if you contribute 10 euros it's like 500 bucks to us. Well check it out the euro right now and this is Thursday the 27th of October, that is at $1.42 cents that's up It's way up. In fact, the fact that it is up so high of course is again you have to listen to Dvorak Horowitz show because Horowitz has this theory that this is part of repatriation during a financial disaster. What is a repatriation? I mean he gets the money back into the country as in other words buy-up, get euros

2:17:47 So they can use them to pass around, essentially. So you gotta get all the money back because they need every dime they can get so they have to raise the value of the euro so when they spend it on bailouts and all the rest of it has a lot of value Oh, okay. Right right right I mean it's not to help any because it's not good for their economy to have a euro so high because they can't export anything. I mean in Mercedes-Benz instead of costing $20,000 at this rate would be like 28 thousand or almost 30 thousand. Yeah just went up 3% today Wow. Yeah, it's ridiculously high and so this is actually a bad sign that the Euros are... because when things do get fixed and if they get fixed at all or if they collapses that Euro was dropping like a rock So now's the time to donate to The Node Jam? Please help us through the cold winter with no gas Exactly! That was yeah that's a very good point

The Root Publication and Henry Louis Gates Jr.

"The Root," an online publication partially owned by the Washington Post, was founded by Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. Gates is famously known for having a "beer summit" with President Obama following a controversial arrest. Some suggest the publication's close relationship with the White House is a form of political "quid pro quo" for Gates' support.

the root· henry louis gates jr· barack obama· washington post· harvard

2:18:53 We need it. We need your help. Let me see if I had a couple of things here... Oh, yes! Remember we were talking about the root? The Root. Oh, the Root! Yeah the root and we were wondering what the route is doing now Doing like televised things with the White House and so you know The Root...The Root is like this publication which is part owned by the Washington Post I got on on the Twitter After the show someone told me What the connection is? And why it's so weird okay? The Root was founded

2:19:36 By Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. of Harvard University Do you remember him? Yep He was the guy that had a beer with President Obama after he got arrested Right So I'm thinking quid pro quo Hey man, look Have a beer So listen dude Don't make such a big deal about this and... I'll get ya in the White House I'll get ya like reporting and do some televised stuff How's that sound to you Yeah, I think you're right. It's a good one good catch well wasn't my catch one of our one of our producers Well you took credit for it you and Obama. I just said one of my producers sent that to us Here is I've been waiting for it cross it off the list Johnny boy oh

Pilot-Free Planes and Global Central Bank Calls

The Institution of Mechanical Engineers in the UK is advocating for research into pilot-free planes to boost R&D spending. These aircraft would likely be operated via remote control, similar to military drones. Simultaneously, the Vatican has called for the creation of a global public authority and a Central World Bank to manage the international economy.

pilot-free planes· drones· vatican· central bank· solar planes

2:20:30 UK, UK from the BBC News. UK urged to research pilot free planes! Cross it off the list come on cross it off the list I like it still, okay. I love it! The Institution of Mechanical Engineers said the country's research and development spending has flatlined so we should be researching pilot-free planes yeah that's great pilot free and solar planes oh that is an investment right there how's the weather not too good well maybe we shouldn't fly will have no energy

2:21:11 So I'm thinking that they're going to get people in the pilot-free planes. The first thing besides making the flights dirt cheap, which will encourage most people to try take a chance and I think that planes will be operated remote control like drones They won't be fully private pilot free initially No no no yeah, I agree Oh, Nevada oh no I agree. I think you're spot on about that I just have a couple things. I just want to jam in we got a couple minutes left for drones We don't have barely no drone has ever crashed no, no drones rock although they've crashed a lot yeah on board with the program dude the Vatican called for a global public authority and Central World Bank this week You know they don't understand subtlety do they?

John McCain's Stance on Syria and Libya

Senator John McCain, speaking at the World Economic Forum, stated that the days of the Assad regime in Syria are numbered. He argued there is no moral distinction between the situations in Libya and Syria, suggesting that foreign military intervention may be necessary to protect civilians. McCain's rhetoric is viewed as a signal that the "Obama doctrine" of drone-based regime change may soon target Syria.

john mccain· syria· libya· assad· gaddafi

2:22:08 Like hey, come on man. It's like we're working on this here shut up Vatican. This is our deal then we have This was a great little note defense secretary Philip Hammond of Gitmo nation east in the UK urged companies to pack their suitcases and head over to Libya To secure your reconstruction contracts I wish had audio that pack your suitcases. Oh, yeah a good one Jackals Pack your suitcases pack him pack him. I say it's great. No pack him well the last time I was watching one of the News shows they were there was John McCain yakking away about bitching about something he's in Tripoli well he was at the World Economic Forum

2:23:02 and uh... you know of course we know that mccain and was the other dishes name uh... lieberman there are the guys who our problem basically dot the resolution started in the United Nations against Libya. Of course, John McCain is the guy who then subsequently goes with Coke and Exxon and all these companies that go on a junket. They pack their suitcases and they're off to Libya the day after Gaddafi's killed. Who was there? McCain like hee-hee! Whoop it up everybody! And he was talking about Syria in regards to... I mean basically just saying Syria you're next

2:23:42 The Assad regime has spilled too much blood to stay in power. Its days are numbered, but it will use those days to murder more of its own people In this way there is no moral distinction whatsoever between the case of Syria and that of Libya The question is what can be done about it? The Syrian revolution may now be entering a new phase The opposition has formed the Syrian National Council and it's seeking to better organize itself. There are increasing reports of defections from the army, more Syrians appear to be taking up arms against the regime there are even growing calls among the opposition for some kind of foreign military intervention." Doesn't that sound like he is reading The Night Before Christmas?

2:24:34 Some some people I'm looking for taking up. Oh, there's more There's more to his clip you look it up we hear these pleas for assistance We hear ya we are listening to and engaging with the National Council were engaging and now that military operations in Libya are ending There will be renewed. Let's go there yeah on what practical military options might Be considered to protect civilian lives in Syria bring at home the Assad regime is should not assume that it can get away with mass murder. Give me a zinger! Gaddafi made that mistake and it cost him everything In other words, the Obama doctrine do as I say or I drone your ass mofo The guy is just basically... I'm still not seeing the go ahead in the New York Times Okay well there's a lot going on

CHAPTER 51 / 55 Discussion

Russian Interests in Syria and Army Defections

The primary obstacle to military intervention in Syria is Russia's naval base and its existing oil deals, such as those with Exxon. Reports of Syrian army defectors taking up arms against the regime are increasing, mirroring the early stages of the Libyan conflict. Some analysts believe the West is using the threat of intervention to pressure Russia into a new oil or political agreement.

russia· syria· exxon· naval base· defectors

2:25:26 I think this is just a holding pattern. I think it's obvious that McCain is, you know because the Russians are part of this deal we can't get around that fact and McCain has either got something he wants to hold over the head of the Russian or he's asking for trouble. I don't know Well he's the guy who set up last one and he's basically... The BBC is also on his bandwagon as noted in the last show And a couple of these guys, these are renegade policies as far as I can tell. Well the whole... it's an exact duplication of the script so the only thing is standing in the way are the Russians with their naval base there and who knows?

2:26:06 But there's still the possibility that we'll have home for the holidays. We know that Turkey is blowing stuff up in northern Iraq, Kurdistan. The possibility for a huge false flag maybe against our embassy there that will finally give us the impetus to go and attack Iran where of course we already have the techno experts trained and ready sitting there so it's a toss-up Syria, Iran... And don't discount Morocco I have a weird feeling about Morocco. You see anything in the Times about Morocco? No, no nothing. I'm looking and looking and not seeing anything. Let's see what we look at here... Moroccans are also demonstrating they've got to occupy Morocco. The Iranians are too! Everybody is but we selectively pick one for whatever political reasons. So maybe... Syria hints of it this is only hears a Syrian tidbit this is a minor below-the-fold thing that they'll read

2:27:06 And it's on A12, so it's buried. In Syria hints of army unrest Syrian Army defectors claim responsibility for an attack This is what McCain's talking about. That's what he just said yeah So let me just see how they handle that here. It's the World Economic Forum which is all about money He's preaching to the choir there They're like can I pack my suitcase? They got some nice naval ships there Well, maybe there's trouble in paradise with the Russkies. I don't know it's completely possible well they did a deal with Exxon so unless that deal falls apart or maybe there is another deal afoot that needs to be done the Russians have to attend some other oil deal and this is just holding a sword over their head I don't know its a scam of some sort We're keeping our eye on everything as usual and just one more note

2:28:04 I find it highly interesting that the Occupy Wall Street livestream now has helicopter shots. They're cutting live to a helicopter cam Please tell me how that works. How does that work? I don't know but it is very interesting, very suspicious. These are the subtleties we notice here on the No Agenda Show sometimes coined the best podcast in the universe and people should go to PodcastAwards.com and vote for us often if we have all these techno experts maybe one or two of them can create a bot

Student Protests in London and Police Kettling

A 15-year-old student described being "kettled" by police during protests in London, where thousands of school children huddled around fires for warmth. The experience radicalized a generation that previously viewed the police as helpful and the media as balanced. Protesters claim the police intentionally left a van in the street to be vandalized for a negative media narrative.

london· students· kettling· g20· police uniforms

2:29:24 And from Northern Silicon Valley where we're celebrating, I don't know. I forgot since the show began it was so depressing that i can't remember. I'm John C. Dvorak Happy World Vegan Day coming up on the first! Alright! And we'll talk to you again on Sunday right here on No Agenda For the American people I've got one question You smell bullshit! We know bullshit dot com. Right now, 75% of Americans ages 17 to 24 years of old are not qualified Let me repeat... We don't know you we don't want you and the sooner your put out to grass the better Now they're racing to find out if the suspect was mentally unstable or a lone wolf terrorist

2:30:15 They were now quote hunkered down close quotes. You know, it's pre-crap! This was meant to be the first post ideological generation right? This was meant to be the generation that never thought of anything bigger than our Facebook profiles and our TV screens this is meant to be the generation where the only thing that Saturday night meant was x factor I think now that claim is quite ridiculous. Now we've shown that we are as ideological as ever before, now we've shown that solidarity and comradeship and all those things that used to be associated with students are as relevant now as they have ever been You know the most incredible thing that happened on Wednesday I went down, and thought i was going to go down in lunch break and then get back for lessons. Perhaps I should have known they'd put the guy in charge of the G20 in charge perhaps I should have been more concerned for my life than whether or not I was gonna get down for lessons but when I tried to get out and I was told it was a sterile area by police officers standing and no letting anyone out I thought well thats why we need university education if we don't get one we end up in police uniforms

2:31:19 When I was kettled in there, I was with thousands and thousands of school students who'd come down with their ties around their heads in their school uniforms. And yeah they were cold! Who had never been on a protest before, who had never joined a political party or been involved in a political movement before... No agenda! ...who didn't have any economic knowledge or political degrees but they were there because they believed in something bigger and they knew that either You know, there weren't a million choices. There were two choices either they lay down and took whatever the government threw at them or they stood up and fought back And so those school students who'd never been involved in anything before stood up and they fought back! And when they were in that kettle being kettled by police you know that word went round as we was sitting huddling around fires sharing out what little food We had on the word went round people said we don't want their up to we know that They don't think we're a danger to the public

2:32:10 I'm 15 years old, people there were as young as 13. We know they don't think we're going to run riot through the streets of London We know what they're up to. They think that if they kettle us now, we're not going to come on a demonstration ever again Well let the word go out from today people say Let the word go out about next Tuesday Let the word go out about next week and next month and next year That they can't stop us demonstrating They can't stop us fighting back And however much they try to imprison us in the streets of London Those are our streets! And we will always be there to demonstrate We will always be there to fight People who had... Who had always thought that the police were just those people at the other end of the telephone line if there was a burglary. People who'd always thought that the media were just those friendly newspaper men who were there to give them that unbalanced picture of the facts people learned a lot last Wednesday, people learned a lot as they huddled round fires and then emerged from that kettle to see headlines like vandals on The Evening Standard that afternoon. People learnt a lot when a police van was left in the middle of the road so the police could tow it away and show the whole public look what vandal these people are!

2:33:08 So the message that goes out from last Wednesday is very clear. We are no longer that post-ideological generation, we are no longer that generation that doesn't care, we are no longer that generation that's prepared to sit back and take whatever they give us. We are now the generation at the heart of the fightback. We are now the generation that will stand with everyone who is fighting back The most inspiring thing I think was just after Wednesday Hundreds of people joined a Facebook group, school students joined a Facebook group in solidarity with RMT members on strike. Those are the people who previously thought tube strikes were something annoying because they stopped getting into school now they think they've got to link arms and fight back with everyone so we want to show solidarity with everyone who's fighting back We hope you'll show solidarity with us and send a strong message to this government that they can't throw their cuts at us! We're going to stand up and we're gonna fight back

CHAPTER 54 / 55 Discussion

The Tea Party, Occupy Movement, and Show Model

The Tea Party and Occupy movements are characterized as waves of energy rejecting political unfairness, though both are susceptible to being co-opted by established interests. A host at MSNBC noted that 94% of the time, the candidate with the most money wins, suggesting the US is an "auction" rather than a democracy. The "No Agenda" show reiterates its value-for-value funding model as an alternative to this corrupt system.

tea party· occupy movement· msnbc· democracy· funding

2:33:59 If you get video of Sarah Palin or get a sound bite from her, bring that back to us. You can hold the Ron Paul stuff." Now the Tea Party, that energy, that upwelling of energy, that rejection about unfairness rapidly became a political vehicle for all sorts of interests that had nothing to do with what The Tea Party started on and you don't have to look any further than The Tea Party's refusal to actually engage the banks I'm sitting here as an anchor at MSNBC like oh man when the bank reform comes The Tea Party is going to be on their throats there is no way they are going to able to get away with this Don't look over here. Nowhere! And so you get this first rejection of a Tea Party, then you also have the Obama wave... Hello everybody Which is, Obama's gonna fix it President Obama will fix this Senator Obama will become president and he will fix that I think that didn't happen I believe the occupation is like the third wave Think about sets of waves of energy or hands at a blackjack table The origins of the occupation which I don't know if anybody would ultimately know Problem reaction solution I think are less

2:34:56 For me, are less relevant than the energy of the rejection of unfairness that is being continued to be expressed either through the support of President Obama and his candidacy which was a perception that would get fixed. Bullshit! The emergence of the Tea Party before it was co-opted. Shush! the Occupy Movement, which honestly that... if history is any indication the Occupy Movement won't go anywhere either by the way. But you will continue to see waves of rejection and unfairness because the world is so transparent now that everybody can see it. Everybody knows the problem The problem is our government has bought The Democratic Party is bought. We just need cash! The Republican Party is bought, Just send your cash That's not an opinion Remember 94% of the time this is a fact 94 percent of the time the candidate who raises the most money wins that is not a democracy that is an auction Look I you know when I was a kid

2:35:52 Let me be clear. I inhaled, uh frequently That was the point These guys these sleazeballs in the chatroom just kicked me off Hey that's right John C. Rourke was kicked No service for you!
