About this episode

Senators John McCain and Carl Levin have introduced Senate Bill 1867, a provision within the National Defense Authorization Act that would permit the U.S. military to detain American citizens indefinitely. The legislation targets individuals suspected of supporting Al-Qaeda or the Taliban, potentially bypassing the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878. Under this framework, military judges would designate suspects as unprivileged enemy belligerents, effectively stripping them of Miranda rights and traditional domestic legal protections.

Global instability looms as IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde warns of social unrest stemming from a stalled economic recovery. In the Middle East, tensions escalate as the USS George H.W. Bush positions itself near the Syrian coast while the Free Syrian Army demands a no-fly zone. Meanwhile, Senator Joe Lieberman is pressuring Google CEO Larry Page to implement a terrorist flag on the Blogger platform following the arrest of Jose Pimentel. Domestically, the U.S. military is expanding its recruitment of drone pilots through high-tech Warrior Zones at Fort Riley, targeting candidates with high spatial awareness regardless of physical fitness. In the corporate sector, the Freedom Group has consolidated the American gun industry, mirroring the aggressive portfolio management of spirits giant Diageo.

The human cost of the current era is felt from the UC Davis campus, where EPA-regulated pesticide-grade pepper spray was deployed on students, to the living rooms of Austin where residents are shielding chili plants from a Texas frost. Between critiques of Fareed Zakaria’s commercialized segments and the clippity-clop of Hillary Clinton’s shoes, the reality of the American Dream is being redefined as a mere safety net. The show concludes with a scathing inquiry from Judge Andrew Napolitano regarding the erosion of the free market and the manipulation of the Occupy Wall Street movement.

CHAPTER 01 / 40 Discussion

Austin Weather, Northern Silicon Valley Comedown, Chili Plant Care

The hosts compare weather conditions between Austin, Texas, and Northern Silicon Valley following the Thanksgiving holiday. Discussion covers the "comedown" from Black Friday, local temperature drops, and the necessity of bringing chili pepper plants and bougainvillea indoors to survive an overnight frost in Texas.

00:00 But I just was looking. I was just looking. I don't know. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore. It's Sunday, November 27th, 2011. Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 360. This is no agenda. From a chilly and windy Camp Mofo in Austin, the capital of the Lone Star State, in the morning I am the underprivileged belligerent known as Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley where it's just another Sunday after Thanksgiving and it's miserable, I'm John C. DeVore actually. Miserable up there? Is it really bad? It's not too bad, it's the comedown from Black Friday. Did you get pepper sprayed at the mall?

00:43 No. No. I was like, that could have happened to John easily. He'd just be walking around in his Crocs. What the heck, Gatorade? Hey man, hey don't pepper spray me bro. That's not okay man. Don't do that man. My soundproofing is not as good as I thought it was. I still have echo in here. You have echo? Yeah. And I got like a whole bunch of those foam things everywhere and I still got echo. You should use egg cartons. No, the foam is really good. It's just I don't think I have enough of them. It doesn't add that low rent look of egg cartons. True. It doesn't have that Gitmo look to it. Is that what you have in the Buzzkill bunker? You got egg cartons? I've got a collection of them. I haven't put them up yet. I kind of like the ambience. I got the window open, the fans going.

01:32 Is it walls are painted with a with a gloss finish so it echoes nicely is it warm is it warm up there? It's not it's not warm. No, I think it's Like 60 where they're predicting an overnight frost in In Austin tonight. Oh you get to experience one of your early frosts in Austin Yes, it gets colder down there than it does in the San Francisco Bay Area. Oh man. Yeah, and that's no sense to me Well, it's the desert I guess. Last night we had a 40 mile an hour wind gust. We had a huge... the gutters are rattling. It's like what? Mickey keeps saying, you gypped me man. I thought we were going to like some warm place. This is her new word. What are we doing in this hellhole? She loves it. She loves to say I gypped her.

02:19 Okay, yeah, I guess I'd jip myself too. Like holy moly, it gets cold here. Should I bring the chili pepper plant in? Because that'll freeze to death, won't it? Or can that survive? I don't know. I've never managed to grow a chili plant because they're just so prevalent around here that I never thought of growing one myself. Oh, wow. I would think that they probably could handle it, but it's in a pot, isn't it? Oh, yeah, of course you bring it in. Yeah, that's what I thought. I just bring it in. And the bougainvillea, I'll bring that in too. That'll freeze, I think. I don't know, maybe.

CHAPTER 02 / 40 Discussion

Senate Bill 1867, National Defense Authorization Act, Detainee Matters

Senate Bill 1867, sponsored by Senators John McCain and Carl Levin, contains provisions allowing the military to detain American citizens suspected of supporting Al-Qaeda or the Taliban. The legislation potentially bypasses the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which historically prohibits the use of the military for domestic law enforcement. A military judge would determine the status of individuals as "unprivileged enemy belligerents" without traditional Miranda rights.

02:58 Anyway in in the morning to you there Jean-Claude. And in the morning to you Adam and in the morning to all the ships at sea and boots on the ground that listen to the No Agenda show on a bi-weekly basis. Also the feet in the air that probably never listen. And in the morning to all of our human resources those who have shown up today in the chat room at noagendastream.com, noagendachat.net. Actually we seem to have a reasonable quorum who have gathered round to talk turkey with us post this turkey holiday and I think we both were working on the same News item which of course is a perfect time to slip this in Not only into the news stream to basically keep it out of the news stream because everyone's too busy with Black Friday Cyber Monday get your pepper spray at the mall

03:50 that no one is paying attention to what's going to happen Monday in the Senate. And I think both you and I were both working on this bill that is going to be voted on apparently Monday. Senate Bill 112, I believe it is. This is the bill and this has been passed around the interwebs here and there. that essentially will do exactly what Newt Gingrich was talking about at the opening of the previous presidential debate, is create a separate system in these United States of Gitmo Nation, where a military judge will determine if you are, if you deserve the status of an unprivileged enemy belligerent,

04:41 If so, then they can pick you up and troops will come to your home and knock on your door and take you away and lock you up. Now which bill are you talking about? What number? I believe it's Senate Bill 112. I can double check. It's going along, it's been parallel with the Senate Bill 1867. I'm sorry, 1867. You are correct. 1867. And so I'm looking at this, go ahead. I like the fact that it's McCain. Douchebag McCain, our friend. Let's hit him right now. Douchebag! A total dork. With Levin, who is a Democrat. It's funny, they always bicker about all these different kinds of things.

05:29 But when it comes down to cracking down on the American public, Democrats and Republicans are in lockstep. We agree. This is great. We agree on something. Finally, we agree on locking up American citizens. Is this not exactly the same type of legislation they had when they locked up the Japanese Americans? Isn't this exactly the same thing? No, this is much more onerous. It's worse? That was something else. That was illegal too, but it was a different stuff. This basically allows the military, first you gotta change a bunch of laws. Posse comitatus, you know, we essentially in our country, we cannot allow the military to police the public. It's a law since like 1880, isn't it? That this posse comitatus means the American military may not be used against the American citizens like in Egypt and stuff.

06:19 Right, and by the way, you wonder why people want to support the second... Maybe the liberals out there who are against gun ownership should follow this a little more closely and understand the reasons for the Second Amendment. The judge is coming. I got the judge. This is why I moved to Texas, man, for this very reason. To teach your last stance. That's right. That's the Alamo here. Camp Alamo Mofo. Not too far away from San Antonio as a matter of fact. Davey Curry here. While you're down there you should take a drive and go look at the Alamo. It's very funny. I'm sure there's going to be border patrol there. I don't want to go there. I was like this is bad news here.

06:58 Yeah, that's where they set it up. So subtitle D detainee matters. Now I, of course, what I usually do is I go through these bills and see what they, what other things they refer to is how did this happen? Because you know, you, they are not actually changing the posse comitatus act. I figured out how this worked. Section 131031, affirmation of authority of the armed forces of the United States to detain covered persons pursuant to the authorization for use of military force. So this is the portion of the bill that says a person who was a part of or substantially supported Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, or associated forces, which I think is the no agenda audience. I think we can be deemed as associated forces.

07:48 If you are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners, including any person, any person who has committed a belligerent act. What does that mean, belligerent act? Well, let's look up the definition of belligerent first. Let's just do what we always do. Belligerent here we go adjective hostile and aggressive a bull-necked belligerent old man Hey, you better lock your window Hostile That's the belligerent right there that is the definition under arrest bull-necked belligerent old man It's that's the first definition

08:34 engaged in a war of conflict as recognized by international law. Noun, a nation or person engaged in war or conflict as recognized by international law. Then we have derivatives belligerently, origin late 16th century from Latin belligerant, waging war from the verb belligerare from bellum, which is war. So basically if you're just doing war talk, Or if you have directly supported such hostilities in aid of such enemy forces and what is I guess they imply support being money, but it could just be holding up a foam finger saying go go. You're good. Yeah, it could be a go for go for go for do things that that's what it will be. This is what I want to arrest. I have a different take on this whole thing when you're finished with your little elaboration here. I want to. Okay, let me just go through how this actually came to be and how it can actually happen.

09:30 So here, detention under the law of war without trial until the end of the hostilities authorized by the authorization for use of military force. So what they're doing is they're referring back to a previous document, which I shall grab for you now. Hold on a second. We have to go back to Public Law 107-40 from September 18th, 2001. This is just one week after 9-11. Authorization for the use of United States Armed Forces. So this has been on the books and renewed by every single, by both Presidents Bush and

10:07 And of course, Obama, the president is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11th or harbored such organizations or persons in order to prevent any future acts, blah, blah, blah. A specific statutory authorization consistent with Section 8A1 of the War Powers Resolution The Congress declares this section is intended to constitute specific statutory authorization within the meaning of Section 5B of the War Powers Resolution. So, and this is all in the show notes, by the way, 360.nashownotes.com.

10:45 Then we go to the US War Powers Resolution 50 U.S. Code 1541-1548, and here I have highlighted, well this is basically telling you how Congress and the Senate, it has special rules for how new executive powers are to be passed, which of course is exactly what's taking place. And which happens is they've had these closed door Senate committees and House committees, which not publicized, not on C-SPAN. No one's talked about it. And then all of a sudden there's a vote on Monday. Of course, everyone's still drunk. And it's Cyber Monday. We get no time. We're going to be shopping. The whole world is going to be in front of their computer shopping, not watching C-SPAN. Yeah, the nerve of these guys to do this on our shopping day. Yeah, that is, that's belligerent right there. That's un-American. It's abhorrent, I tell you. So then specifically,

11:38 Section 1036, procedures for status determinations. This is what's important. This is from the bill that will be voted on on Cyber Monday. How do we determine if you are to receive your Miranda rights and essentially be prosecuted the way the law of the land is supposed to work in the United States or how this will take place if Newt Gingrich is president and he says, you know what? I think you're a bad guy. I'm going to go take care of you. Here's how it works. One, a military judge shall preside at the proceedings for the determination of status of an unprivileged enemy belligerent. So some judge from the military is going to sit there and say, you know, you seem to be a bullnecked old man.

12:25 You are now an unprivileged enemy belligerent. Well, let's assume it'd be some hippie protest or some unreconstructed hippie protest or probably my age Shaking his fist at the good at everything, you know You're supporting terrorism. There you go. Well, there's birds on a wire to an unprivileged enemy belligerent may at the election of the belligerent be represented by military council at proceed so jag Because we get that guy from Jag to show up at proceedings for the maybe I could get Demi Moore She was hot in wasn't that officer and gentleman wasn't she? Wasn't she in that continue be represented by military council proceedings for the determination of status of belligerent

13:10 The Secretary of Defense shall submit to the appropriate committees of Congress a report on any modification of the procedures submitted under this section. The report on any such modification shall be so submitted not later than 60 days before the date on which this modification goes into effect." So essentially if they want to change these rules, they just send a little note to Congress, hey we're changing the rules and My take is set up. This has been going on since 9-11 with the War Powers Resolution.

CHAPTER 03 / 40 Discussion

Christine Lagarde, IMF Economic Outlook, Potential Social Unrest

IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde appeared on 60 Minutes to discuss the ongoing global economic crisis as a continuum of the 2008 collapse. She warned of stalled growth, high unemployment, and potential social unrest. Analysis suggests that restrictive new laws are being passed in anticipation of a complete financial meltdown and subsequent civil instability.

christine lagarde· imf· 60 minutes· social unrest· economic cycles

13:46 With and using the war powers resolution to create these executive powers and our Constitutional scholar president Barack Obama is happy about it. Oh, yeah He doesn't care and of course we can use drones to prosecute you. Well, the drones will be legalized so your take. I want to take this in a slide. I think this is somewhat different. Okay? Christine Lagarde, your buddy, was on 60 Minutes, not this Sunday, last Sunday. And she was interesting. By the way, I want to put in the book of predictions that she will be France's first female prime minister or president. How about queen? Can we just make her queen? That would be better. She's already a queen. So anyway. Hey, bada bing everybody.

14:40 on yakking with that woman that was beaten up in Egypt. Play Lagarde on worst case scenario. It is a very serious situation, unprecedented in many ways. What's the worst case scenario? Stole growth, high unemployment, potential social unrest as a result and financial markets in disarray. For many people around the world, for many Americans It feels like they've been here before. Is this worse than 2008, the current crisis? You know, it's a continuum of 2008, let's face it. It's the same process that is unfolding before our eyes. With the potential to be worse? I'm reasonably optimistic and sometimes desperately optimistic. And I want to be desperately optimistic and I want to believe that countries will understand that they can actually change the course of things. And if you look at the US, what are you most worried about here?

15:39 political bickering. So, uh... Well, the way I heard that is we're gonna be locking people up in FEMA camps. What I'm hearing, and I got to this point from, got back on my cycles book, and I'm not the only person that looks at these cycles. In fact, a lot of people do. I'm sure government people do too. They have to have looked at what happened in the 30s. I believe that they are anticipating a complete meltdown and these laws are being passed for the purposes of trying to control what's going to be a huge mess. John,

16:18 We've been talking, I've been saying this since 2008 on this show. So have I, I mean I've got it in the book. Hello, this is why. But I'm saying that this thing is not, has got nothing to do with anything other than just controlling what's going to be a huge mess and it'll be in the next two years. That's why they got to pass these laws under the darkness of night. Will you then agree with me that this FEMA camp stuff, which has been talk of conspiracy theories forever... The FEMA camp thing I'm a little skeptical about, although I will say that they would be handy. It's convenient. It would be convenient. I'm not on board with the FEMA camp thing because I think that this is bogus, but if somebody can actually document some of these camps, and I know you say they do, but every time I've seen the last time I saw documentation for a FEMA camp where they actually had pictures, I happened to have seen that facility in Slovenia. So it's bull crap. And, but I think that there's a, um,

17:18 Mean it doesn't you know there's a lot of weird stuff going on and a lot of it has to do with these Border Patrol guys up in the state of Washington that are you know it's all practicing and by the way it's in these Border Patrols look at the states that they're in it's in Texas free state it's in Washington State free state and You know what I think what will happen just look at look at what happened with with Black Friday people when they can shop Or not shop, because someone's in the way, they go nuts. So what if the ATM system doesn't work, or the banking system just closes down for a bank holiday for four days and no one can get any money, you can't buy anything. I think that's when, what? I can't shop? What's next, football's gonna be off? This is probably why they resolved the NBA lockout. We gotta give these people something to do.

18:18 That's a good one. Put basketball back on the air. Yeah. Well, I think that's just basically to get Obama back out of the office. He's bored. He's like, I'm so bored, man. He's got the jitters. He doesn't have his basket, his b-ball. I'll throw my b-ball back on the tube, boys. I gotta watch me some basketball. No, I think that they're getting ready for... It's all set. The terrorism thing is a complete hoax. Really? Well, I'm sorry I'm saying that again, but maybe I got a new listener out there, but we know that it's a hoax as per se, but as an excuse for this, it's a real hoax because this is about corralling the public when all hell breaks loose and they can't control anything anymore and they got to bring the military in. And the National Guard's all overseas, they can't use them. No, they're all occupied.

19:12 being used. Which is another thing, mixing the National Guard with the military, which should be illegal, is also part of this whole scheme. This is a well thought out situation. That's why you got insiders like McCain involved. The guy's always involved in these inside deals. He's in, like in Libya, Syria, Egypt, he's always there. Usually it's with Lieberman. It's interesting that he's now with, what is it, Levin? Yeah, well it's because Lieberman's an independent. They needed a Democrat. Oh, they needed a Democrat, right, needed a Democrat, of course. Of course, what am I thinking? Yeah, well, I think we're both on the... kind of thinking the same way. Yeah, and what disturbs me is that only Ron Paul appears to be against any of this kind of thing.

CHAPTER 04 / 40 Discussion

Ron Paul, Iowa Caucus, Pim Fortuyn Assassination Parallel

Ron Paul faces significant media scrutiny and dismissal from networks like Fox News despite strong polling in the Iowa Caucus. A comparison is drawn to the 2002 assassination of Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn, expressing concern for Paul's safety as an anti-establishment candidate. Media pundits continue to claim Paul's foreign policy makes him an unsustainable candidate for the Republican nomination.

ron paul· iowa caucus· pim fortuyn· fox news· republican nomination

19:58 And of course he's been completely shoved aside, kicked to the curb. Should I tell you something about Ron Paul? Last night, for some reason here, I sleep very lightly, or I'm still sleeping lightly, and lots of things come to mind. Still do, man. I can feel it, dude. And I remember when you're in LA, you're always rolled up into a ball, sucking your thumb scared to death. And it's the one on one fumes that are knocking me out. Fumes of carbon monoxide. It's like I'm dead. Actually, technically, clinically, I'm dead at night there. I remember in 2000, I was a tooth. I think it was 1999, 2000. The Dutch elections were about to be swept by a guy named Tim Fortan.

20:45 And this was this, you know, six foot three, six foot four tall, bald guy, highly intellectual gay man. And he was basically saying, uh, we've got to stop the Islam, Islamification of the Netherlands. We've got to turn all this crap back. This is out of control. And the whole country was behind him. He was, everyone's like, yeah, you know, this guy is right. And he was the only one and all the elites were going around like, Oh man, And literally a week before the election, some crazy animal activists shot him five times with two different types of bullets. And his party actually won posthumously. They still won the election. I am, I fear for Ron Paul's life right now. And I don't want, please don't, don't put this in the book. I fear for his life. No, don't put that in the book because that's,

21:41 Here, listen to, listen to, you know, I've now I'm in the studio and I've got the cable box that I can rewind. This was Fox this weekend talk with some douchebag talking about Iowa, which Ron Paul, the Iowa caucus, Ron Paul stands a large chance of sweeping that. And here's how this is the so-called Republican network. The right-wing network run by Democrats, obviously. Here's what they had to say about him. He continues to do very well in some of the polling. How would you handicap his chances in Iowa? Ron Paul has a very passionate base of support probably the most passionate of any candidate he certainly is popular with a certain constituency and if... Which he means idiots. There's certain constituent nut cases. The field is split in Iowa who knows what could happen he could do very well there he is well organized however... However let me be clear let's be very very

22:38 clear because you have to understand one thing, stupid people listening to me. I think it needs to be clear that even if Ron Paul does well in Iowa, even wins Iowa, more scrutiny will be applied to his foreign policy, which I think is completely unsustainable in a Republican field. There's no way in my mind he could possibly win the nomination. No way, no way possibly. Never ever could not happen. It's just impossible to even fathom that because he doesn't want to kill people as an American. He's got also a, as we talked about in the last show, he has a attitude about Iran which is more logical. I have a couple of clips, kind of segues into this, that I just want to get out of the way. I should have run them when I ran the Ron Paul clips on Thursday.

CHAPTER 05 / 40 Discussion

Seymour Hersh, Iranian Nuclear Program, Intelligence Reports

Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh reports that senior Israeli and American intelligence officials believe Iran does not currently possess a nuclear bomb. Former Mossad head Meir Dagan has reportedly criticized the push for military action, noting that Iran is far from weaponization. Reports suggest Iran halted its nuclear weapons research in 2003 following the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

seymour hersh· iran· mossad· meir dagan· nuclear weapons

23:28 But can you play, there's two of them, if you like the first, well, let's play the second one first, which is Iran has no bomb. This is Seymour Hersh, the famous investigative journalist who's always floating around and he's got very good contacts in the intelligence community. His whole MO is just basically, he's a conduit for Mossad, CIA, MI6, mostly guys who'd like to you need to talk at the bar and he he's on the democracy now discussing Iranian the red that ran has no bomb and and how the fact that this tolerating and things is is is nuts and that's a worrisome because again it's a political issue there everybody the country is moving quickly to the right Israel is obviously and I I can just tell you that I've also talked

24:25 Unfortunately, the ground rules are so lousy in Israel, I can't write it. But I've talked to very senior intelligence people in Iran, in Israel rather. If you notice, you don't hear that much about it, but the former head of Mossad, Meir Dagan, who was the guy that orchestrated the attempted assassinations in Dubai, etc. no dove, has been vehement about the foolishness of attempting to go after Iran on the grounds that it's not clear what they have. They're certainly far away from a bomb. Israel's been saying for 20 years they're six months away from making a bomb. But I can tell you that I've talked to senior Israeli officers in Israel who

25:02 who have told me, A, they know that Iran, as the American intelligence community reported, I think it was in 07, there was a national intelligence estimate that became public that said essentially Iran did look at the bomb. They had an eight year war with Iraq. a terrible war, 1980 to 1988. We, by the way, the United States sided with Iraq, Saddam Hussein at that time. Iran then, and then years after that, they began to worry about Iraq's talk about building a nuclear weapon. So they did look in that period, let's say 87 to 2000, 97 to 2003, no question, the American NIE said in 07, it was augmented in 2011, I wrote about it a year ago in the New Yorker. It said, yes, they did look

25:50 at a bomb, but not to, they knew that they couldn't, there's no way they could make a bomb to deter America or Israel. They're not fools. Persian society's been around for a couple thousand years. They can't deter us. We have too many bombs. They thought maybe they could deter Iraq. After we went in and took down Iraq in 03, they stopped. So they had done some studies. We're talking about computer modeling. Yeah, well, we know this, except that's not the way the report came back. The report came back saying, well, we got all these secret documents from some country that shall go unnamed and they say they've got a bomb. So they've got a bomb. And now they've got a bomb. No one takes the time to read the reports. We read the report here on the show. No bomb. Right. But meanwhile, we've got the Newt Gingrich's and all these other guys who... Gingrich is the worst of this group, by the way. He's an a-hole.

CHAPTER 06 / 40 Discussion

Newt Gingrich, Bill Clinton Endorsement, Political Alliances

Former President Bill Clinton praised Newt Gingrich's debate performance and intellectual approach to policy, fueling speculation of a bipartisan alliance. Gingrich's resurgence in the GOP polls is attributed to his "thoughtful" stances on immigration and his ability to secure media attention. Some analysts suggest Gingrich has struck a deal with the Clinton camp to maintain the political status quo.

newt gingrich· bill clinton· newsmax· gop nomination· immigration policy

26:41 He has been pounding the drum for this and that in that glib style that he has but you know I think you know what I think John I think he has made a deal with the Clintons and He's got the backing of the Clintons, and I know it sounds weird them being Democrats and all but I think that That's that's the deal that he struck. He's got a huge backing and I believe the Clintons are behind him and That's just all you just came up with that just now. No, I've been thinking about this. I've been studying that's funny because that's this let me get this right I have to look this up now because I recall listening to Gingrich recently talking about something he did with the Clintons or with Bill and

27:24 Uh, Gingrich Clinton. Well, I know that he did that. He did the global warming commercial with Nancy Pelosi, which was for Al Gore's reality show. Yeah. So he's on board with the Gore camp, which is, you know, and Gore's just a little sucker pussy boy for Clinton. Yeah. Bill Clinton praises Newt Gingrich over his immigration, thoughtful immigration policies. There you go. There you go. He's got a deal with him. We're in the polls Bill Clinton praises old foe Newt Gingrich on Newsmax. There you go. There you go. This is good. Listen to this. This is just this is new. This is broke by the way. 17 hours ago.

28:10 Former President Bill Clinton praised his erstwhile nemesis, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, crediting his strong debate performance with propelling him into the front-runner status for the GOP presidential nomination. Quote, it's not any traditional charisma, said Clinton, who discussed his new bestseller, this book. He says Clinton believes Gingrich is emergent because, quote, he thinks about this stuff all the time. Yeah, this is all he does when he's shopping at Tiffany's. I gotta be thinking about that. In September interview with Newsmax, Clinton had predicted that Gingrich, who at the time was polling in the single digits, would make a comeback.

28:49 That's interesting. So the way this works in the United States of Gitmo nation is you need money because if you don't have money, you don't have commercials. If you don't have commercials, then the networks aren't interested in you. And that's why Ron Paul is getting all this airtime is because he's running commercials on the network. He's got the money now to run commercials. They're being very smart about it. And Gingrich, his campaign was blown up. It was dead in the water. And then he did a deal with the Clintons. Because it doesn't matter if it's Democrats or Republicans who win, it's the same people. So this to me sounds like an endorsement from Bill Clinton. Yeah, totally. Now let's just take this a little further.

Rahm Emanuel, Gabrielle Giffords, Democratic Candidate Speculation

Speculation arises regarding potential replacements for Barack Obama in the 2012 election, highlighting Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Representative Gabrielle Giffords. Emanuel's recent appearance at the Jackson Dinner in Iowa and a high-profile NBC profile are viewed as strategic positioning. Giffords' public appearance serving Thanksgiving dinner is also noted as a potential campaigning milestone.

rahm emanuel· gabrielle giffords· barack obama· chicago· jackson dinner

29:31 Because there's some more study that I've been doing so if let's say Obama Let me just get this off my chair. Well, what would happen if Gingrich somehow? Got the nomination and to be bipartisan he had Hillary as the vice president. Oh Man, that's like a Clydesdale Clippity-clop Clippity-clop So we need Let's say Obama doesn't quit because at the end of the day that's going to be up to Valerie Jarrett, you know, the Senior advisor to the president the slumlord from Chicago. So my prediction to date has been they're gonna have to either replace They got to put a candidate in or it's also possible that they are going to have someone pop up and run against him and

30:27 to weaken the vote because he has to go he cannot become the president for a second term so this is what happened over the thanksgiving two things happened over the thanksgiving holiday one have a short clip for the other just have some backup documentation uh... here's what happened over the thanksgiving holiday i love it i thought that was one of the most wonderful was dana perino of course on the the five things that made me feel like i should not have been at the diner but uh... where she was um... serving people and One of the people quoted in the article that she served said, you're an incredible inspiration. So that was a nice story. It was so nice to see her out, up on her feet, back in action. It really was heartwarming. Because a lot of people, you know, you don't get to see her very often. But it's so remarkable. When we were watching it, my sister looked at the camera. She goes, wow. Wow.

31:13 her. Yes, what a hero and the American hero Gabrielle Giffords serving turkey dinners at Thanksgiving. That is a campaigning moment. No doubt about it. No matter what she's campaigning for. It's a campaigning moment, but even more interesting and it was interesting that it happened, but I tried to pull a clip and it was just absolutely Nothing available because the guy is so incredibly boring Rahm Emanuel mayor of Chicago former chief of staff to President Barack Obama Did something very interesting he was in Iowa and he was at the at the Jackson dinner which traditionally is the the the Democratic candidate will go there and

31:58 To you know, it's like between a hundred and ten thousand dollars a pop for for this dinner and he did a whole speech supporting Supporting Obama, but what was interesting is that two days after that there was this huge interview on NBC a whole profile and this is very very typical PR you have someone do something and then you do the big big big network interview. I think they're positioning Rahm Emanuel to possibly be the guy who would all of a sudden pop up and say, you know what? I know how this works. I've been there from day one. The president is just tired. I'm going to have to run for president. Oh, no, that's a lot. That is that's out there. It's either him or Gabriel Giffords. But so if he doesn't quit, if Obama doesn't quit, which is our original prediction,

32:55 Then I think it's going to be one of those two who are going to step in. Well, for one thing, the fact that Rahm won Chicago is one thing because it's a machine's election. It doesn't really have to do with you actually having to be liked by the public. No, no, it's polling machines, right? There's a lot of corruption in Chicago, it's a known fact. You don't say! So I would think that they are scrambling to find somebody. But they got nothing. I mean, because it looks like they're either going to have to keep Obama in, even though I don't think he wants to run for re-election. I think he's just as soon take his, you know, because he's going to make more money and he's going to have all the amenities of having been a previous president. So he keeps the security, free security guards and all the rest of it. And then the retirement package and all kinds of expenses. And his terrarium to keep nice and hot before his lizardness.

33:57 and uh... but it but they get you know they did both part of the other party except for ron paul and then nobody wants him to be elected so everybody's against him i mean the republicans hate him the democrats They're amused by him, but they got nothing to do with it. And the networks and the news media hate him, or they've been told to, and they think they do because they're so dumb. I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen. This thing is getting funnier by the minute. That's why I think Gingrich has somehow snuck into the action again, even though he's got a lot of luggage, baggage. He's got luggage, too, under his eyes.

Reggie Love, White House Departure, Controversial College Photos

Reggie Love, President Obama's longtime personal aide and "body man," resigned from his position officially to finish his MBA. However, the departure coincides with the resurfacing of controversial photos from his college years. Speculation suggests Senior Advisor Valerie Jarrett may have pushed for the resignation to avoid political liability for the administration.

reggie love· barack obama· valerie jarrett· college photos· resignation

34:37 The president is unloading his baggage. Remember we talked about on the last show, uh, the first buddy, body man, uh, Reggie, uh, love that he loves all the I Reggie, the president calls him. I Reggie that he all of a sudden quit cause you know, he had important school work to do. Like, Let me think, job as the best, the first buddy or getting my degree. Now, well, that's an easy choice as far as I'm concerned. Or you could at least wait a year. The pictures of Reggie Love in college are now resurfacing everywhere. And I have these pictures, they're linked in the show notes, no agenda show, 360.nashownotes.com of him passed out drunk at college and guys teabagging him.

35:28 No, yeah, oh God. It's pretty rough So warning when you look at the pictures in the show notes be warned So I think there's some hanky-panky going on they didn't want you know Valerie Jarrett's like okay look We got to be real careful here. They're out for us and get out you're gone Just leave your stuff. Don't worry about it. We'll send it later. We'll send we'll send someone over Yeah, go leave Yeah, yeah disgusting well it went you know when what's that douchebag on HBO when Bill Maher is always talking about the tea baggers You know you should show a picture of what it really is It's not it's not really a nice thing to say to someone you're a tea bagger because it means when someone's drunk You're sticking your penis in there in their mouth. It's not really nice

36:20 So, although it could be quite tasty. Reggie loves. Yeah, and of course no one, the mainstream media doesn't do anything with this. No, they can't. They don't know what to do, how to do it. They don't know what to, how to deal with it. I mean, what are they supposed to do? Show the pictures I could just imagine being one of these editorial meetings can we talk about this boss? I got this picture I don't think our readers would appreciate this is it's introducing too many variables to the conversation I got this picture of this guy teabagging Reggie love you know can we run that?

36:57 A salon could run it, or the Drudge Report, or any of these other... The Sentinel? Anyone could run it. The Advocate? No one's... Gay USA could run it. No one's running it. No one's running it. Except the No Agenda Show. And for that we received some alms. Yeah, not much. Because nobody listens to the Thursday show. Nobody listens to this show. We can talk about tea-bagging all we want. It's not going to make a difference because nobody's listening. Except the chat room. But we did have a couple, we do have two producers for this show. One executive producer came in late but I want to read... He came in drunk is what he did. He came in drunk. We've been asking for guys to come in drunk and this guy didn't. This will lead into, by the way, I think people want to talk a little bit about wine and food. I do want to discuss the scotch he's drinking and so I can give some people some ideas about what's going on in the world.

Donor D at MIT, Western Australia, Scotch and Adultery

A donor from Western Australia, identified as D at MIT, contributed $300 while consuming Johnnie Walker Blue Label scotch. The donor's note addresses previous humorous accusations of adultery made by the hosts and requests a birthday shout-out for his son, Xander. The segment highlights the personal and often humorous relationship between the show and its financial supporters.

Johnnie Walker Scotch, Diageo Spirits, Connoisseur Tips

An analysis of the Johnnie Walker brand reveals that the Blue Label is often considered overpriced by experts compared to the Gold or Green labels. Diageo, the parent company, manages a vast portfolio of single malt distilleries, often blending leftovers into the Green Label. Connoisseurs recommend the Gold Label for its 15-to-18-year aging and superior flavor profile relative to the more expensive Blue Label.

johnnie walker· diageo· scotch· single malt· blended whiskey

40:25 Okay, so I encourage more of these this is good. This is the kind of note we we like readings Because we like to feel that you kind of reveal the real you know our real listeners So he's drinking apparently as Johnny Walker blue now You're gonna tell us that this is bullcrap this blue stuff by the way quite well the Asians love it the Japanese love this stuff and Well, the blue is the expensive... Yeah, hell yeah. Johnny Walker is a blended scotch and the company's owned by Diageo who owns half the world of spirits and they're going broke half the time. They bought out Seagrams and they bought out the distribution of Chateau and Estates and then they bought all these expensive wines and it was about a year and a half ago, two years ago when they said we can't do this anymore, we can't handle this, too much work and they dumped

41:14 all these unbelievably expensive wines on the market at half price. I picked up a bunch of burgundies and everything else next to nothing. Nice. And, but these guys are incompetent basically. So they, they take the Johnny Walker brand and they've, they've been messing with it. So the experts out there, there's a couple of interesting Johnny Walkers. If you're going to, if Scott's drinkers out there, you should know this. Johnny Walker's generally the red, the black, the blue are generally blended scotches. That means they have neutral spirits mixed in with the single malts and so it's a little smoother. The blue is the best of the group. It's very expensive and many experts think it's the most overpriced and they were smart money.

41:53 By either the green or the gold now the Johnny Walker green now I think they've changed this They're what they what they used to be able to because I was told years ago when I was tasting at the International wines and spirits competition by these which has the best tasters they get these experts and by somebody that the good that the at the time and this is about I don't know six seven years ago that the Johnny Walker green was the was the stuff you wanted to buy because it was all the leftover single malls from this tonnage and you can look this up on Wikipedia that tonnage of single malt distilleries that Diageo owns. I think it's Diageo by the way. They bring in all these single malts and they throw them into the green label and the smart money just by that it was a kind of a mix of single malts, no neutral spirits.

42:42 I now, if I look on their wiki page it says that the green is a blend of four single malts from the different corners, the four different styles of Scotches in the bottle and it has stopped winning awards and the awards are now going to the gold label which is what I was told the green was which is a mixture of 15 or 20 different single malts and then aged for 15 to 18 years. That is the what this what the real connoisseurs think is the Johnny Walker to drink if you're gonna drink Johnny Walker And most people think that the blue is set is good But it's probably cost twice as much as it should and that is your information regarding Johnny Walker that you'd all the By the gold that's all I can go for the gold Anyway, so this is what happens when you drink too much of this stuff at once well apparently it's good stuff. I

43:41 Well, yeah, he seems to like it. I can't afford it. We drink Jack here Jack is good. We drink it in that big bottle like the gallon bottle the big giant bottle Mickey's so price-conscious. I love her for that. He's like, you know, we like our scotch. Oh, yeah Here it is. It's like this huge bottle. I think it has a handle on it, too. I It's a huge bottle yeah, yeah, that's we buy it in bulk. That's the best way. This has always been a Very if you if you were in Europe

Chili Pepper Vinegar, Habanero Sauce, Culinary Tips

A culinary tip involves steeping cut chili peppers in apple cider vinegar to create a versatile condiment for meats and sauces. For those making habanero sauce, letting the mixture sit in the refrigerator for several days reportedly reduces the extreme heat by up to 60% while preserving the distinctive smoky flavor.

habanero· capsicum· vinegar· hot sauce· cooking

44:18 It's an expensive it's like a treat. It's like oh, yeah, it's special. Yeah, it's special And I used it, you know, I made your special sweet potato recipe for Thanksgiving the bogative holiday and instead of bourbon which I couldn't afford I use the Jack Daniels it actually worked quite well and No, anything that's got that flavor, Jack Danish is fine for that. And I added a little bit, you know what I'm using all the time now? You told me after, I think it was one of our post-show deconstruction sessions, you told me that I should cut up the chili peppers and put them into vinegar and just mix it up and let it sit for a while. And I've done that, I use apple cider or cider vinegar actually.

45:00 This stuff is amazing and I put it on everything. I make sauces with it, I put it on just... It'll go nice on some lamb, anything you're cooking. Just... And it gives that little extra kick and it has a nice little flavor to it. It's phenomenal. It really is great. Yeah, it is good. I'm just saying it's a food tip. In fact, I was made the other day. I got a couple of I got four of these habaneros, the big ones, big red ones. I saw red habaneros, which are very hard to come by. And they're so hot. I mean, I have them. I have them. You have some habaneros? Yeah, yeah, I'm growing them. So I mix some habaneros with, I took a couple of them and mix them with some regular fresnos and some other red chili so it's gonna be a red sauce and then I put in some tomatillos which help balance off the acidity and then ground the whole thing up in a blender with some vinegar, salt and pepper. But then it would be, it's like extremely excruciatingly hot

46:03 But curiously, and I don't know why this is and I've never read about it, but I can tell you that if you take and make a habanero sauce. You let it set for like two or three days in the refrigerator. It's fantastic it drops the heat down by at least 30 40 50 60 percent drops way down Yeah, and then you can now eat it you still get that smoky habanero flavor Which is very distinctive, and you don't hit you're not blowing your head off. Well. You know we're getting abject agony and by the way that I think one quarter of the concentration of capsicum that they have in that pepper spray. Speaking of the capsicum, just briefly, because I did some research on that. So the capsicum

Pepper Spray Concentration, UC Davis Incident, EPA Regulation

Research into the pepper spray used during the UC Davis Occupy protests reveals it is regulated by the EPA as a pesticide rather than a food product. The concentration of capsaicin in the spray used on students was reportedly 10% to 30%, significantly higher than the 1% to 2% concentration found in standard bear spray.

pepper spray· capsicum· uc davis· epa· occupy wall street

46:47 Is it called capsicum or cas-i-cum? I can't remember now. I pronounce it capsicum, that's what everybody said. I don't know how to look at the word. Do you know that it is not, you know, Megan Fox was saying that it's a food product? Oh, it's a food! It's not Megan Fox. It was Megan, uh... Her name is Megan Fox. Megan Fox. That's her name. Megan Kelly. We are gonna call her Megan Fox. I'm the Kelly Network. So, actually it's not regulated by the FDA. It's regulated by the EPA because it is deemed a pesticide. Oh, well that's what I said. They were spraying them like it was a bug spray. Exactly. The concentration of capsicin in bear spray is 1-2%. In the pepper spray, they spray, and on the

47:40 the pesticide they used on the Occupy Wall Streeters at Davis, UC Davis, 10 to 30 percent. So it's like a multiple and strength to bear spray. Bear spray, which should stop a bear. It's unconscionable. It is. All right. Do we have another? That guy should be imprisoned. And I think there's some laws that apply to his use of that stuff. That guy actually should be in jail, that cop. Yeah. in the general population too. Yeah. So we got one more associate that we haven't- So we can poop on him.

48:21 Associate executive producer is anonymous. Oh. From Bridgewater, New Jersey, $200. Anonymous of Bridgewater says, greetings and in the morning slaves is a targeted donation. No hookers, no blow, no rent boys, no cabernet. How boring. This is seed money to finance the building of the new home of the Ministry of Bogativity. I would highly recommend this building be constructed of drone proof materials utilizing the best cloaking technologies for which the science is currently in. Since I'm sure I'll be too full of tryptophan to propagate the formula today, I'll just send my cash. Happy thanks- thanks-stalking day. That's thanks-taking day, I think. Thanks-taking, sorry. Well, stalking's even funnier. Well, you know that they're building that Europa building in Brussels, which is going to cost 400 million euros. Have you seen this thing?

49:17 Yeah, I have. It's ridiculous. Made of glass and metal and I think cloaked and drone proof materials. So we're on our way, John. That's what that's what it'll take about 400 million euros and anonymous is helping us on our way to our very own building for the Ministry of Bogativity. That's great. Yeah, the Ministry of Bogativity would be ideal. So we appreciate these these two supporters who have shown up. We'll have a very short segment later on as well. To be expected, we know how it works and still Here we are doing the show for you on the day when no one gives a crap about us. Nobody will listen to this show. No, no. And I sent it, I sent Adam an email, I said, why don't we do this show on Sunday? And Adam says, you know, after Thanksgiving, because every year it's the same thing. Nobody comes in, nobody listens.

I could watch face the nation It was the shows were all pre-taped and completely boring. There was nothing. Yeah, and everything is a rerun I know the shows are all bull crap.

I predate you. Hmm. It wasn't as big as the first class phone which is a huge certificate. No, this is a size.

And just before we leave the topic of scotches, if anybody wants to know what my favorite scotch is, and I would recommend getting this if you want to blow somebody's mind, 30-year-old LaFroigue. Oh, LaFroigue is... You know, we used to... One of my first clients when I first started my company in 93 or 94 was Scheffler & Somerset. You know them?

53:50 No. They import all the single malts. So I had bar backs in my office with all the single malts, with Lafroig, with Oban. I mean, it was just a total bonanza. We were just drinking all the time. Great client. Schifflin & Somerset. Yeah, well I think they're gone. They're all gone. But anyway, the Freud 30 is very expensive but it's worth it and it's not, and believe me, the Freud, people say the Freud is terrible because if you buy this stuff from Costco it's 10 years old, it's almost undrinkable, it's like drinking or just biting into a wine car. It's like Windex, you can clean windows with it. It's just ridiculous, but 30 is just like wow. It's the ultimate scotch.

Tensions escalate in Syria as the Free Syrian Army calls for a no-fly zone and the Arab League imposes deadlines for monitors. The USS George H.W. Bush aircraft carrier is positioned off the coast, while Russia maintains its own naval presence. A prediction is made that a "false flag" event in Turkey will be used as the impetus for international military intervention in Syria.

syria· turkey· arab league· false flag· george bush aircraft carrier

56:42 While we're on the the squirrel tip. Oh actually let's talk about what's happening I have a little theory here about what's going on in Syria because they're rolling out the script so we have the rebel army in Syria the free Syrian army and Calling for air strikes on strategic targets. So basically a no-fly zone. That's that's what that means That was in the news in the past two days. Yeah, we're not fighting yet. Not yet. Not yet We have the George Bush Aircraft carrier right off the the coast there the Russians also have their aircraft carrier then we have the International Crisis Group writing about all the things we have to do

57:32 particularly when it comes to the Central Bank of Syria. So the script is rolling out, but the best one is from the United Nations. A United Nations human rights panel expressed alarm Friday at reports it has received a Syrian security forces torturing children. Oh brother. Yeah, this is the rape. Well, no, that didn't work. The rape thing no one bought. So they want to do it somewhere in between the dumping kids out of incubators and raping women with Viagra. So they came up with this one secure Syrian security forces torturing children, torturing children really. But I know what's going to happen because we know that we made a deal with the Russians.

58:19 And that's like we're not going to go in there unless, and here it comes, unless, and this is such a such a fractal I think you'll love it, unless Syria would attack Turkey. I have and this is where I have a little news clip. Listen to this now listen from Euronews. This is them, well just listen to this and I'll explain, I'll expand on the theory. It's crackdown on protesters continues Syria has until the end of the day to sign an Arab deal letting monitors into the country. Same script as Libya, Arab deal, the Arab League. Or it could incur sanctions. The Arab League deadline has officially expired. But a source said the door would be left open to Damascus for a few extra hours.

59:06 The day after dozens were reported killed amid an overall death toll of three and a half thousand according to the UN this latest amateur footage appears to show... By the way, the whole thing is amateur footage. There's not a single professional camera shot in the piece. So no let up in the onslaught. Russia opposes sanctions and says it needs more information about a French idea for a humanitarian corridor. A humanitarian corridor! This is a new one, I love this! The humanitarian corridor. Russians! To poop on you! Bring medicine or other supplies to civilians. Russia, as a matter of principle, proceeds from the premise that at this stage what's needed is not resolutions, not sanctions, not pressure, but internal Syrian dialogue. But meeting his Italian counterpart today, Turkey's foreign minister said his country was ready to act in unison with the Arab League over Syria. So here's what's going to happen. I'm calling a false flag in Turkey.

1:00:09 Because we have the setup, right? We have everyone's in place, everyone's ready, but we need a reason. And this is exactly like Desert Storm 1 where Iraq jumped into Kuwait. That was the impetus. Like, okay, now we got to go. This is not okay. You're in someone else's turf. We're friends with them. We've been setting up friendships with Turkey. We've had Clippity Clop, Lucifer. Everyone's been in Turkey. We're going to have a false flag event that's going to be blamed on Syria in Turkey and that's when we go. Yeah, no chance because we don't go. I'm looking at the New York Times and here's the Sunday paper which is the mouthpiece of the CIA.

CHAPTER 17 / 40 Discussion

Bahrain Protests, New York Times Coverage, Hillary Clinton Photo

The New York Times is criticized for its lack of coverage regarding the crackdown in Bahrain, where the monarchy is investigating its own actions with Saudi support. A specific photo of Hillary Clinton walking past "techno experts" in a Scott Shane article is highlighted as a significant media artifact. The hosts argue that Bahrain receives less scrutiny than Syria due to its strategic importance and Formula One ties.

bahrain· new york times· hillary clinton· saudi arabia· scott shane

1:00:48 There is zero zero coverage of anything including it's not even like mentioned in the entire front section there's not one single Syrian story if we're gonna go along the lines of you what you're thinking which is just because something's happening that we're gonna do something play the Bahrain still having issues which is reported on Democracy Now which gets no coverage from either the spokes paper of record, the New York Times or your conduits of information, whatever they might be, play this little thing. Clashes have erupted in Bahrain ahead of today's release of a report investigating the crackdown on the pro-democracy uprising earlier this year. The Bahraini monarchy commissioned the supposed independent probe after crushing protests with the help of Saudi troops.

1:01:39 At least 26 people were killed, over 1,500 people were arrested, thousands lost their jobs after protests erupted in February. Bahraini activists have questioned the report's credibility. The Bahraini monarchy is funding the probe and footing the bill for commission members to stay at the lavish Ritz-Carlton hotel and spa. So you have to understand of course we're not gonna do anything with Bahrain because it has the Formula One races there Are you nuts and we're not gonna do anything with with Syria? Yes, we are because they've already done the deal with X the Russians have already done a deal a quid pro quo with Exxon to for whatever oil is gonna be found here in there between Cyprus and Syria and that so this is all put on murder. I'm this is an

1:02:24 MI6 BP oil thing that you're being suckered into believing is actually going to happen. No, no, no. First of all, may I please point out that the New York Times posted a story about Syria two hours ago. You're reading the, what is that thing, that ancient thing called? It's called the paper that people actually read. Nobody goes to the website. Now this will be, this will be in tomorrow's times. It's the Sunday and Saturday paper that makes the difference. Okay, well we can we can agree to disagree, but I think you're wrong. I think we will have a false saying that they're not trying to do something But I'm not by the way. There's a picture of Hillary on the front page of this paper. That is enough. It's a collector's item

1:03:03 Look for the article by Scott Shane It's called the cross party lines lobbying for Iranian exiles on terrorist list and it has Hillary walking past these three douchebags I'm telling you this picture is I've got to find a wait a minute when is this the three douchebags from? from Egypt Is that the it's her techno experts? Oh Yes, guys are say Deutschmeyer whatever it says on their yellow t-shirts. Oh, I'm trying to find I don't have this picture on my front page You're gonna have to dig for it. What's uh? Who's the article by thank you love Scott Shane? Sha ne what's that? Oh? Eggnog yay hey, thank you. That's nice Scott Shane. Yeah, sh a any any hold on oh

1:03:59 I mean this picture is great. And what's it called? What's the article called? Across Party Lines Lobbying for Iranian Exiles on Terrorist List. That's weird. It's not in here. I can't find it at all. That's too bad. Somebody must have called from the White House. Well, hit that picture off. We don't want people downloading it. Hillary definitely had her techno experts at work in Egypt. Here's the news clip. You probably saw this.

CHAPTER 18 / 40 Discussion

Egypt Protests, American Student Arrests, Mohamed ElBaradei

Three American students from Philadelphia were arrested in Cairo for allegedly throwing firebombs during protests in Tahrir Square but were quickly released and returned to the U.S. The Egyptian military continues to hold power while Mohamed ElBaradei, a member of the International Crisis Group, positions himself for leadership. The unrest is characterized as a struggle between the military and Western-backed "techno experts" attempting to influence the transition.

egypt· tahrir square· mohamed elbaradei· philadelphia· american university cairo

1:04:42 Hello, why are you not playing? This is weird. Oh, that's your Bahrain clip. I'm sorry. Hold on a second. Where's my techno experts clip? Here we go. Techno experts. With a smile on his face, one of the three American students jailed during protests in Egypt arrived back home tonight in Philadelphia. Philadelphia. What's in Philadelphia, John? Egyptians. Spies, dude, spies. My parents, my mom and my dad for the support. Gregory Porter just wanted a hometown meal after his long trip from Cairo.

1:05:23 Police arrested the 19-year-old and two of his friends during deadly riots in Cairo's Tahrir Square Sunday. Authorities accused the three of throwing firebombs at Egyptian security forces clashing with protesters. The U.S. government helped bring the college students back to America when prosecutors decided not to press charges. I'd like to thank the embassy in Cairo for all the things they did for us. Of course. As well as the administration at the American University in Cairo. Of course. For all their help and support. And Hillary! Tahrir Square remained relatively peaceful. So here's what's going on in Egypt. This is, it's exactly upside down. The army took over.

1:06:05 And they're saying like, well, we don't think we should do elections right now because everyone that wants to get in, in particular, Al-Baradai, who is this guy from the International Crisis Group. He's on the board there. This is the guy that we've been tracking for. And I should mention that the two of us have pointed, predicted the Egyptian military would take over after this thing began because they're all trained here. Right. And, and, and, but what's happening now is that, um, Clippity Club Lucifer said, okay, it's time to get our boys in and the, and the, and the army, the military is going like, no, we don't think so. And so, oh no, okay. We're going to bring our techno experts out. In fact, we've sent a couple over from Philadelphia.

1:06:45 And they're going to chuck some bombs at you and make it all look like a horrible thing on television because exactly what do you see on TV? You see the Egyptian riots. What do you not see on TV? You don't see Bahrain. Because this is important. This is what it's all about. This is not about another uprising. This is yet again the techno experts going in and trying to overthrow by popular vote or whatever or popular action to overthrow and get al-Baradai in. Al-Baradai is the guy who even said in a statement he is willing to not run for president if they'll make him the leader of the Transitional National Council. I mean, does it get any funnier than that? It's hilarious. Yeah, just like Libya. So then McCain can go in with the Exxon and McDonald's and everybody else. It's a total takeover.

CHAPTER 19 / 40 Discussion

Joe Lieberman, Google Terrorist Flag, Jose Pimentel Case

Senator Joe Lieberman sent a letter to Google CEO Larry Page demanding a "terrorist flag" feature for the Blogger platform following the arrest of Jose Pimentel in New York. Pimentel allegedly used Google-hosted sites to share bomb-making instructions. Lieberman argues that while YouTube has standards for removing extremist content, Blogger lacks consistent enforcement against "homegrown terrorists."

joe lieberman· google· blogger· jose pimentel· terrorist content

1:07:40 Well, yeah, I don't think they're doing a very good job of it. Well, Hillary's too busy getting ready for the birth of her baby. So you have to see this picture then. Anyway, all right, go on. Well, no, that's basically what I had to say about it. I mean, isn't that enough? Yeah, I guess. We had that, you know, our buddy there who did trueislam1.com. Who got arrested in New York where we made we we made a bomb that would have done what looked like he was drilling holes in a pipe for that guy. Yeah, that guy. So what's his name Lieberman comes out and He says let me see he sent a letter and I have the letter here somewhere. Hold on a second He sent a letter to Google and this is actually something you should you should report on this and

1:08:43 Hold on, let me just find the Lieberman letter. Yeah, he sent a letter to Google. Here it is. He says, to Larry Page actually, I'm sorry, not just to Google. On Saturday, New York Police Department arrested Jose Pimentel for constructing a pipe bomb to be used against US military service members, allegedly used the internet to access instructions, blah blah blah. Pimentel's internet activity, both his spreading of bomb-making instruction links and his hate-filled writings were hosted by Google. By the way, that's not true, because I looked at trueslam1.com and his pipe bomb making instructions and links are not on that site. It's a very boring site.

1:09:26 On his site www.trueislam1.com, Pimentel stated, quote, people have to understand that America and its policies are all legitimate targets in warfare, blahdy blahdy blahdy blah. As demonstrated by this recent case, Google's web hosting site, Blogger, is being used by violent Islamist extremists to broadcast terrorist content. Pimentel's site is just one of the many examples of homegrown terrorists and lone wolves on the dangerous blogger using Google hosted sites to propagate their violent ideology

1:10:02 In September 2008, in response to a previous request that YouTube not allow terrorist content on its servers, Google changed its YouTube community guidelines to expressly ban terrorist content. In November 2010, Google introduced a flag button for terrorist content on YouTube. Have you ever seen the terrorist flag? They put that on a lot of sites that I think are terrorist sites. I'm glad we have 700 domain names. I continue to appreciate and commend these important first steps, but I am disappointed that Google has not developed a consistent standard throughout its many platforms. Unlike YouTube's community standards, bloggers' content policy does not expressly ban terrorist content, nor does it provide a flag feature for such content." So he's basically asking for a flag, a terrorist flag.

CHAPTER 20 / 40 Discussion

Internet Kill Switch Bill, Joe Lieberman, Cyber Security

Senator Joe Lieberman defends the "Internet Kill Switch" bill, which would grant the President authority to disconnect portions of the U.S. internet during a national security crisis. Lieberman compares the proposed powers to China's ability to disconnect its internet during war. Critics argue the bill grants absolute power to suppress free speech, while Lieberman insists it is a necessary measure to protect financial and transportation grids from cyber warfare.

joe lieberman· kill switch· cyber attack· china· national security

1:10:54 I think it's the Al-Qaeda flag isn't it? Terrorist flag. A terrorist flag. Lieberman, and I pulled up an old clip of Lieberman. This is the guy who just said this. Give you an idea of how well he understands the internet. Where's my mouse? Here we go. This guy is such an idiot. He's telling us, here's how the internet works according to Joe Lieberman. You have an internet bill, it's been called the kill switch bill that would allow the president to seize control or shut down portions of the internet if the US was under some sort of cyber attack. I don't know if you've seen the internet lately.

1:11:29 There's a lot of people out there who think that what you are granting the president is absolute power to shut down freedom of speech. I mean, this is just over the top. No way. And total misinformation. No way, man. I don't know why people are intentionally peddling the misinformation. Here's the fact. fact that nation-states by some terrorist groups by or ask your question why put the the transportation grid on the internet at all that's not necessary baffling you know why I know why I have to see we did this we talked about this on the x3 show you should people's out there should check it out once well x3 show dot me vo comm we talked about this is because everybody's so

1:12:24 Lazy that they just assume put everything on the internet so some fat guy can sit at home scratching his gut while he's like Let's see what the conditions are at the plant You know without having to go in the core I need to know the temperature of the core And I just want to do it on my iPhone with my eyes That's the only reason. Why would you put any of this stuff connected to the internet? Of course, that is bull crap. Organized criminal gangs. Gangs. And we need this capacity in a time of war. We need the capacity for the president to say, internet service provider, we've got to disconnect the American internet from all traffic coming in from another foreign country. This guy clearly does not understand the internet.

1:13:12 Disconnected from all incoming traffic. It's only an American internet. It's a big firewall like yeah like those Chiners have or we got to put a patch on this part of it a patch We need a patch A band-aid, give me a little patch. The president will never take over, the government should never take over the internet. And listen, we've consulted, Senator Collins and I are proposing this bill with civil liberties and privacy experts. This is a matter of national security. Security! A cyber attack on America can do as much or more damage today by incapacitating our banks, our communications, our

1:13:50 our finance, our transportation as a conventional war attack and the president in catastrophic cases is not going to do it every day, not gonna... No, not every day, maybe every Sunday. He makes it sound like he's going to be doing it all the time. But not every day. We're gonna have an internet free Sunday everybody so not today not today tomorrow tomorrow We're gonna pull up a patch it take over so I say to my friends on the internet relax Hey friends on the internet all my friends out there relax chillax, bro The president not gonna do it. It's not gonna do it any day every day, man No way, chillax. Take a look at the bill. And this is something that we need to protect our country. Right now, China, the government, can disconnect parts of its internet in the case of war. We need to have that. We need to have the same thing. Whatever China does, we should get. Whatever China got, we gotta get. Idiot. And then right here, we need a flag on blogger. A blogger? Who are those dangerous bloggers? This tells you how great Google Plus is gonna be.

1:14:54 You'll have a special circle, the terrorist circle. You can put your terrorist friends in there. Come on Larry, do it. Read the bill, Larry. We want consistent guidelines. Bloggers gotta do it. You got the terrorist content out there. Like bomb making stuff. Get it off. So you sound a little bit like halfway between Larry King and Beavis. Or butthead, one of the two, I can never mix them. I can't do... You were doing Larry King and then you also had a little Beavis Butthead action in there with the laughing. We'll take it. We'll take it. Can you do it on call though? That's the problem. What, that one? Yeah, you drop into it. Yeah. Larry King. Hi, my suspenders are a little bit tight today. I'm off the air. That idiot, Piers Morgan. Stupid idiot. Fucking Brit.

CHAPTER 21 / 40 Discussion

Great Question Pet Peeve, White House Briefings, Among the Truthers

A critique of the common phrase "that's a great question" used in public forums and White House briefings suggests it is a stalling tactic or a learned social tic rather than a genuine compliment. The hosts discuss an interview with Jonathan Kay, author of "Among the Truthers," noting that even intellectual authors fall into the trap of using the phrase when confronted with challenging observations about their own biases.

c-span· white house· jonathan kay· among the truthers· pet peeve

1:15:51 Hey! You're generating into a kind of a George Bush after he's about 90. Anyway. It's all good. It's all good. Okay, where were we? Oh, well, here's one. This is what this is. Actually, I have a pet peeve. Oh, I'll be ready for the jingle. It's not a long pet peeve, but it's a pet peeve. Play pet peeve. Wait, wait, let me set it up. All right. So this woman... Wait, let me ask you a question. A production note. You're gonna set it up, I'm gonna play the pet peeve, and then you wanna come back before I play the jingle, right? Yeah, I'm gonna say something and then you play the jingle. Because everyone loves it when you go crazy. I'm not gonna go that crazy, but you'll have heard this peeve before, it's a pet peeve of mine. So this woman is some idiot from the White House who's a representative of

1:16:40 at some meeting, one of those C-SPAN things. I have her name downstairs on an envelope, I forgot to bring it up. But it's beside the point. The point is that you hear people doing this constantly and it just drives me nuts. Somebody's gonna ask her a question. Take one more, the gentleman in the back there. David Yaskin, Starfish Retention Solutions. So you're talking about resources for consumers, that's really good. I work with colleges every day who are looking for best practices of how they can improve college completion. What's the U.S. government doing for the administrators of these colleges to help them? That's a great question. How is that a great question? It's a stupid question. Why is, why do people say that's a great question when it's not a great question? It's just a question. More, more.

1:17:31 It's that, have you ever noticed this? And I've seen in meetings all the time, you know, somebody has asked some stupid question and instead of just answering the question, you say, that's a great question. Where do you learn this? Is there a seminar that tells you to say that's a great question when it's clearly not a great question? If I hear a great question, I'll know it. These, I've never heard one. I've never heard in my life a great question. They're all just questions. There's not a great question. Why is she saying it's a great question? It's not. I published that interview with the guy who wrote Among the Truthers yesterday that I remember we talked about him yeah and he actually did that in the interview he said that's a great question now in this case it actually was a great question so I didn't go off on him

1:18:22 When people say that around, if I ask a question something, I usually don't show up for things like this, but if I did and I ask a question, somebody says that to me, I always come back to them. I would say, I don't think it's a great question, it's just a question. Or what I'd like to say is, are you an idiot? That's not a great question. Right, well I didn't want to be confrontational with the guy because I just wanted to hear what he had to say. And he was going on about, you know, the internet is a place where it confirms stuff. So if you're researching things, you're only going to find sites that confirm your belief and confirm what you're already thinking. And I said, well, when you're researching this book, didn't you do exactly the same? Didn't you wind up in that trap where you just finding stuff that confirmed that all conspiracy theorists are tinfoil hat wearing loonies? And he said, that's a great question. And I think it was a great question.

CHAPTER 22 / 40 Discussion

Redefining the American Dream, Barack Obama, Pat Buchanan

President Barack Obama's definition of the American Dream—working hard to "just get by" and provide for family—is analyzed alongside a discussion from The McLaughlin Group. Pat Buchanan argues the dream is being "postponed" or "canceled" for millions of Americans. The shift from a dream of upward mobility to one of basic financial security reflects the current economic climate.

american dream· barack obama· pat buchanan· mclaughlin group· financial security

1:19:13 Well, I think it was an interesting observation. Okay, it wasn't a question. You're right. It wasn't the question. Here's a question for you. A question for you is kind of an ask John question. And in fact, I would like to set it up Because this is what the American president thinks is the American dream in the end The folks I hear from in letters or meet when I travel across the country. They aren't asking for much not much They're just looking for a job that covers their bills. They're looking for a little financial security They want to know that if they work hard and live within their means everything will be alright They'll be able to get ahead and give their kids a better life. I

1:19:57 That's the dream each of us has for ourselves and our family. Just getting by. That's the American dream according to the president. That's the American dream. Just getting by. So the McLaughlin group, which as we know is a scripted show, a scripted talk show, strictly scripted, yeah. The same question was posed. What is the American dream? And before I play the clip, because they went around the table and you can already kind of guess that Eleanor is the stupidest. Isn't that her name, Eleanor? She's an idiot. She reminds me of like someone's mom I wouldn't like. You know what I mean? Yeah, she's like the mom, someone's mom you don't like. That's a good observation. What is the American dream, John?

1:20:49 Just getting by? Or you want me to tell you what the American Dream is supposed to be? I would love to hear what the American Dream is supposed to be according to Jean-Claude de Barrac. That you have, you're in an environment where there's so much freedom that you can make anything out of your life that you want to and you can be as successful as you have a desire to be to the point where you could be Bill Gates and a billionaire. Here's the McLaughlin Group. What is the American Dream today? Has it been redefined as a result of the financial slowdown? The American Dream is the belief of each and every American growing up that if he studies and he works hard and he gets a job and he stays out of trouble, he can just get by. He will be able to build a good life for himself, his wife, his family. That life will get better and better gradually. There may be some bumps.

1:21:38 But at the end of it his children will have even a better life John is that the definition of the American dream John? So basically not to buy any standards. I've ever heard. That's just that's like just getting by Play by the rules and you know read a lot read a lot of books of bugs, do what you're told, and then at the end of it, at the end of your human resourcefulness, then you die and your kids have it a little bit better. Of course, adjusted for inflation, it's exactly the same. So that's incorrect. That is not the American Dream. That was Buchanan. Yes, that was Pat Buchanan. Another douchebag, apparently. Yes, total douchebag. The American Dream is not being redefined, but what is happening is it is being postponed for tens of millions of Americans for the last three years. Hold the

1:22:23 the phone the American dream is being postponed and for some Americans I think it has been canceled You might not have an American dream! We've cancelled your American dream. Go home! American dream, Nazi. Yeah, that's him. Okay, now, the mom everyone hates. ...redefined in the sense that it's less materialistic and that's not necessarily a bad thing. I think people are looking for... What? It's been redefined as less materialistic. It's not necessarily... Redefined by who? By Eleanor. No, by Obama.

CHAPTER 23 / 40 Discussion

Alternative Lifestyles, Individualism, The American Dream Debate

Panelists on The McLaughlin Group, including Eleanor Clift, suggest the American Dream is being redefined as "less materialistic" and more focused on "meaning" and "individualism." Host John McLaughlin introduces the concept of "alternative lifestyles" into the definition, which the podcast hosts interpret as a coded reference to the LGBTQ community. The segment concludes that the traditional dream of success is being replaced by a "safety net" mentality.

mclaughlin group· eleanor clift· alternative lifestyle· individualism· socialism

1:23:02 More meaning and I think there's more individuality and this notion that you have to do better than your parents and I think that's fallen by the wayside. Yeah, because we're getting crushed. And I think a lot of young people may feel liberated. They don't necessarily have to follow their father's path and earn more and they can find their own way. So, I mean, I don't think it's all that depressing and I think the numbers you put on the screen show that people are redefining the American dream in a way that they feel comfortable with and they're optimistic. I think that This is not a pessimistic society that we live in. Okay, let's just check with our panel of experts. Jean-Claude Duac. Eleanor says the American dream has been redefined to just getting by. That's not a bad thing. Is that correct or... Now let's move to the new chick who could be hot if she lost 20 pounds. Beth, welcome. Thank you.

1:24:03 What do you think about this? Well the dream has been redefined. It's no longer this singular, collective vision. It's much more personal and the traditional milestones of the recent past like a nuclear family, you have to be married, have children. Excuse me, John, do you have a nuclear family? They're not irradiated yet. What does that mean, the nuclear family? It means a husband, a wife, and two kids. Where does the term come from? Where does the term come from? I've heard it all my life but I don't know where it came from.

1:24:52 Um, here, can I have a loaf of bread and I'll give you two ounces of meaning for that. Instead of finding a bunch of meaning for the bread. Here's the meaning. Success. It's about having a financial safety net and instead of a nuclear. Socialism. Yeah. It's not about success. It's about having a safety net. Family. It's about broader social relationships. So I think also it's Facebook a new do-it-yourself American dream. It's the new do-it-yourself American dream Well, you don't have to ask our panel of experts. I'm just gonna say no you're wrong now the black guy Who's the black guy in the panel? I like him. He's a round-faced guy. Wait a minute. Let me guess. Is it is he the token Republican? Is that the idea?

1:25:33 You know, no, he's not that he's kind of a he's a independent Democrat a little liberal on the liberal side if I'm not mistaken Paige you agree Jack can't remember his name. All right, listen to him. Let's listen to him. But it is an American dream. Oh, it is. It's alive and well and it's important to Americans of all ages. I'm sorry. The American dream of socialism and Facebook is alive and well according to Beth. What do you think of Beth's answer? Well, I think that's fascinating and I agree with it 100%. It's interesting, I think it's become a cliche to talk about the Internet era, but you know the Internet era has brought about more individualism and more individual abilities. To me, the American dream in one word is opportunity. Now that I like! That's the American, would you not say, John? That's a good definition of the American dream, opportunity.

1:26:15 Yeah, okay, we're gonna give him a little very good there. That's what has kept more people coming wanting to get into this country than wanting to leave and like Pat said it's not a question of you having guaranteed results but you have the opportunity to succeed if you work hard and get a hit. Okay so now in the script John, so now we have the last guy in the table making some sense. What do we do as the Curry-Dvorak Consulting Group? What do we have to do if we have to propagate the message of just getting by? Well, we have to give it back to the host who will somehow summarize it in a way that the powers that be want it. We summarize the message in such a way that it nails down the answer. But do we need a transition? Was somebody going to interrupt? Of course! I wonder who that would be. Give it a shot. Well, if I was setting Page Jack in a way,

1:27:13 Buchanan likes to interrupt on he's like the interrupting guy but since he's I'm looking at this layout in my head and I would assume that he's sitting next to to the golfing and Eleanor sitting next to him so Eleanor might bud in no no Buchanan is one removed from McGlaughlin. Yeah, but Ken is on the right hand side at the bottom. Yes. Eleanor is across from him and then Paige would be sitting next to, what's his name, and then the pretty, almost pretty girl is always sitting next to McGlaughlin on his left. It's funny how that works. That's kind of the way your shows work. I always set things up a certain way. Yeah, all right. It's Buchanan of course. Yeah, of course Buchanan is the interrupter. Yes. How much of our politics is shaped by whether or not that dream is really alive for people or not that you know if you don't have equal education can you have equal opportunity for example? Issues like that.

1:28:05 everybody's making sort of the same point what I've described that's how you do it it was making the same point the point is that is good that is good it's nice isn't it that's the writers yeah that's a good job good job whatever anybody says you you normalize it with the interrupter comes and normalizes everything and then if it's going to be wrapped up then then McLaughlin would have a summary here it goes but part of the American dream is freedom It's the same thing that Clarence means when he says opportunity. The freedom to live the kind of life, the alternative lifestyle. Alternative lifestyle. If you're gay, isn't that what he's saying? What is alternative lifestyle? Where did that come from all of a sudden? No one talked about it. When he says it, it means gay. Yeah. That you described and all the rest of it. Those have always been there, but there's no doubt more and more tens of millions

1:28:52 are rejecting the traditional American dream for what they see as their own personal dream. If Americans are remaining, and I think you indicated this, Beth, personally confident, notwithstanding the circumstance, personally confident, how does this translate? And then he moves on. So a nice wrap up. I think McLaughlin could have done a go to break wrap up, but they didn't have a break scheduled there. Then they just pulled that into how does Mitt Romney translate to that, which was useless. But there you go ladies and gentlemen, that is the American dream as has been redefined by the president. you know, they if you noticed it. Yeah, that's why he brought up that's why I even stopped the clip of the alternative lifestyle. Yeah, the gays ruined it all. So somehow the gays are ruining it for everybody. Damn, damn. I don't know how he managed to pull that off. But it's what that's the message I got. Yeah, well, I think it was intended to to project that way. And he's absolutely right. The gays are to blame for everything. In the end, the folks I hear from in letters or meet when I travel across the country,

1:30:02 They aren't asking for much. They're just looking for a job that covers their bills. They're looking for a little financial security. They want to know that if they work hard and live within their means, everything will be alright. They'll be able to get ahead and give their kids a better life. That's the dream each of us has for ourselves and our families. That's right. Every single night I go to sleep and that's the dream I have of just a little security net I just want to work really, really hard. Hey, wait a minute. I'm actually living the American dream, aren't I? Well, you're just getting by. Yeah. They're in Austin. Had to move to Texas. Had to. Well, I'm liking it here. I got a lot of, there's a lot of interesting people in Texas. Oh yeah. No, Texas is loaded with characters. And no one talks like,

Austin Food Trucks, 6th Street Enclaves, Texas Malls

The culture of Austin, Texas, is described through its "hippie enclaves" and the prevalence of food trailers near 6th Street. Despite the city's cosmopolitan vibe, the surrounding areas are dominated by "monster malls" like Rock Creek Mall. The hosts discuss the unique social experience of buying food from trucks and eating at nearby outdoor terraces.

austin· food trucks· 6th street· malls· rock creek mall

1:30:54 No one talks with a Texas drawl here by the way. Not so much. Austin is pretty much the most cosmopolitan of all the cities. Actually, the most cosmopolitan technically is Dallas. But in terms of being a kind of a liberal college town cosmopolitan, that style, Austin has it and it's so internationalized that there's very little, especially if a Texan is actually going to talk through their teeth. Not too much of that there. You get that in Fort Worth. Nope. And there's a lot of interesting technology companies, start-ups. Have you been to any of the bars in the downtown area? Now, Mickey is going to take me, because she's been bar hopping. She's been bar hopping. There's actually this one little area where people go to eat and I forget the name of it, but it's this little kind of enclave, like a little hippie enclave right off of, I think it's off of 6th Street actually. And so there's these little bars where you kind of sit outside on the terrace and they have all the food trailers, the food trucks

1:31:51 Oh, this is different. I haven't been there since that began. Yeah, it's very cool. So you you know you you select your cuisine and Then you basically cuisine from the food truck. No, it's good. Anyway, this is does somebody somebody doesn't look back on this as a depression item You know, well, I know we had to live we had to eat off the food truck select our cuisine years But the price was good. It was excellent. Oh It was no it was it's really nice. She drove me through the area although it was you know no one was there because it was like 11 a.m.. And As you select your cuisine and then you walk back and you sit down and the bars there are basically bars and so you get the food from the food truck and then These terraces, and it's like you know wooden like buildings and that shacks was kind of a little hippie enclave and

1:32:42 It's just a very small street. I can't remember the name of it. Maybe someone in the chat room will know And it's really cool and and and it's it's a good vibe very good vibe and everything else is a cook in Texas everything else is a mall here There's a lot of malls and Mickey can't handle the mall She is not a mall person is it one of the big do they have one of the big giant monster malls? One one what do you mean one? It's like that's what it is everything is a monster mall. Oh, it's frightening you go Christina wanted to she came for a couple days she wanted to go to forever 21 which is like a

Used Pickup Trucks, Dodge Ram, Range Rover Maintenance

A search for a used pickup truck in Austin leads to a 2001 Dodge Ram with 174,000 miles, though the $6,500 asking price was deemed too high. The discussion covers the high resale value of trucks in Texas and the logistical benefits of owning a "beater" vehicle for errands. Additionally, the challenges of maintaining a Range Rover's air suspension are discussed, including the idea of keeping a second vehicle for parts.

dodge ram· range rover· pickup trucks· austin· car maintenance

1:33:28 You know, really cheap clothing shop, which is really cheap here in Austin. The prices are unbelievable. And so we went to the, what was the name of it? Like the Rock Creek Mall or something. Oh, they got, we got us an Apple store here. So you'd be very, you seem like the type of person to be very uncomfortable in a mall, let alone, but even though you're blaming it on Mickey. I'm okay with malls. I'm alright with that. I find it very handy, you know, you just go and just do stuff. I almost bought a pickup truck by the way. Oh, I was so close. Oh yeah, you have to have a pickup truck if you live in Texas. Actually, you have to have a pickup truck no matter where you live. So there was a 2001 Dodge Ram with the big block with the extended cab and it had like, you know, fat tires, was jacked up a little bit, the dual exhaust.

1:34:21 It was black, which is not that good necessarily, because it gets really hot here. Tinted windows, but it was high miles, 174,000 miles. And I'm like, that's a lot of miles. I'll tell you, for pickup trucks, we had one, we bought it at about 175,000 miles and took it to 380. Yeah, I'm sure you can do that, but the guy wanted... He wanted... First he said it was seven. Yeah, it's too much. I'm telling you the weird thing about... I thought five and a half. They hold their value. Yeah. They grind out tons of miles. I thought five and a half was a reasonable price for that. Yeah, that sounds right. But he wouldn't go lower than six and a half. I'm like, okay, brother. I just walked away. But it looked the part. It looks so awesome.

1:35:10 Oh my God. It had a... You know that sound? Yeah, nine miles to the gallon. Just getting by, brother. How much am I driving? I mean, I'm sitting watching C-SPAN all day. It's just in case I have to go run an errand. You know, and I want to feel... Maybe get some two by fours. Yeah. Throw them in my... What do you call it? Throw them in the bed. In the bed. In the bed. And I need to put a gun rack in. Oh yeah, definitely. Gotta get me a gun rack. Just a couple wooden guns. So you're saying, so 174,000 miles is not too much. The only thing is the price was just too much. I felt the price was too high.

1:35:51 Well, you know, you're gonna get a feel for it after a while. I mean, our pickup truck is a wreck, so we gotta just get rid of it and get a new one. But they're just amazing at holding their value. Everybody has... You know, pickup trucks are just a different animal than cars. And generally speaking, if they're well-maintained, you can put a lot of miles on them, because they never really put a high-performance engine in them. They put a kind of a clunky, you know, grinding engine that just runs forever. Right. I'll find something. This week I'll find something. What do you need a pickup truck for? You're going to sell the Range Rover and the... No, the Saab is sold. Oh, it is? Yeah, the Saab is sold. And the Range Rover we drove out here.

1:36:40 Right, you're gonna sell it or you're gonna keep it? No, I mean I just put another two grand into it for the suspension, remember? Oh, right. Yeah, no, no, no. Are you kidding me? No, I mean my budget is... Did you find a guy that can work on those things? Yes, yes. We got a guy who can work on it. So we're good there. Well, the good thing about Austin is it's international enough that they have probably, you know, specialists for almost every car. They do have a specialist. Except they don't have a lot, unless the car is so unpopular that they can't support the guy. So what I also could do is I saw a 2001 Range Rover identical to the one we bought for five and a half thousand dollars, much higher miles, 104,000 miles, but it still has the air suspension. So I know that's going to break. But I'm thinking if I get two of them, then if the apocalypse hit, when the apocalypse hits, I can always have one running all the time with the parts from the other.

NPR Air Force Recruitment, Drone Pilots, Major General James Poss

NPR aired a segment that functioned as a recruitment advertisement for Air Force drone pilots. Major General James Poss explained that the Air Force now recruits more unmanned aircraft pilots than traditional fighter and bomber pilots combined. The segment emphasized that candidates with poor vision or those prone to airsickness are eligible for drone careers, highlighting "spatial awareness" as a key requirement.

npr· air force· drones· predator· james poss

1:37:32 That's a good idea. Yeah, that's the way to go. Don't you think that's an idea? All right, I wanted to get a bicycle. Wait until you see the hill the truck couldn't get up. I ain't gonna be driving no bicycle on that brother. NPR, our national treasure as we get closer to business models here, just like CNN where they're rolling out the vacuum cleaner sales guy, they apparently felt it was necessary to run ads for our military, particularly for the Air Force. And did a whole piece about, well, can you guess what it is? No, I have no idea. Oh, come on.

1:38:22 A military ad? Yeah, and they're recruiting a specific type of person. Uh, computer junkies. Yeah, and why would they be recruiting computer junkies? For to drive drones. Yes, indeed, John. Win, lose, or drone! That's right, if you have glasses, if you just like playing computer games, you are perfect, so come on down and play with us, kids! Win, lose, or drone! So here's the NPR piece. Titan 1-4, hold your position. That's literally the tagline for this Air Force recruiting ad. Unmanned aircraft is identifying enemy sniper. It shows a robotic aircraft scanning a desert landscape with a camera that looks like a bright red eye, alerting troops on the ground of a nearby sniper. Thanks Reaper 1-1, we got it from here. The message on the screen, it's not science fiction, it's what we do every day.

1:39:28 Back at the Air and Space Museum, there's an exhibit featuring planes a lot like the one in the Air Force ad. You've heard them called drones, though the Air Force doesn't like that term much. They call them remotely piloted aircraft. So they have this whole piece, and that was the entire commercial by the way. I have the commercial as well. It's 30 seconds. She just told you what was on the screen. So they played the commercial, and then they bring in the recruiter. What does come next? Singer says not a single Western aerospace company has a manned combat aircraft in research and development. The Air Force says it now recruits more pilots for unmanned planes than fighter and bomber pilots combined. The MQ-1 Predator is the military's main workhorse. In September 2001, the Air Force had one.

1:40:13 Today, they have 57 predators flying 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We wanted to know what these changes mean for the men and women in uniform. Yeah, we were so curious about that. Gee, that's the investigative reporting NPR does. Wow. You know, what does this mean for recruiting, you know, your main business? Could you please tell us in this free commercial? I am Major General James Posse. I'm the deputy chief of intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance for the United States Air Posse helps oversee the Air Force's surveillance programs, which mostly revolve around drones. It's a program that's grown dramatically in just the last few years. Take this story from a couple years ago. Posse was speaking to a group of new Air Force officers in Alabama, trying to get the crowd fired up. I asked how many folks were going to fly transport aircraft. Big cheer.

1:41:02 How many folks wanted to fly fighter aircraft? Huge chance. Then I asked them, well, who wants to fly the single most effective weapon system in the global war on terror in the United States Air Force? Who wants to fly the single most effective weapon against the war on terror in the United States Air Force? What a line. Who wants to fly that? It's like written. Yeah, he practiced that one. not only was there silence, there was a couple boos. But this was about... Posse knew how they felt. He joined the Air Force in May of 1992 for the same reason. Now let's humanize it. He wanted to be a fighter pilot, but it wasn't long before he found out he needed glasses. So son, if you can't be a fighter pilot, don't worry about it because if you wear glasses, we're looking for you. You got those Coke bottle bottom glasses, son? You're good to fly our Predator drones. So I had to go with

1:42:08 Plan B would Plan B was to be an intelligence officer. That has been almost as much fun as being a fighter pilot. But an Air Force recruit today might not need a Plan B. That's right, you don't need a Plan B if you're a recruit, son. Remote aircraft pilots don't need perfect vision. They don't have to worry about getting airsick. The job has become more popular with recruits. This is great! This is me! You don't have to worry about getting airsick. You don't have to worry if you can't see. This is fantastic. In fact, the Air Force now has a career path specifically for drone pilots. There's a career path! They're still looking for the same qualities. Spatial awareness, quick critical thinking skills. Yes. Still, flying drones is different. Yes, this is fantastic. John, how much do you think that ad was worth to NPR? No, I don't know. That whole... That's got to be...

1:43:00 That placement for something that long has to be about a couple hundred grand it seems to me. I think they did really really well on it. Played the commercial, had the guy, had the recruiting message, had everything in there. Yeah, it was like Mark Bunting should have done that piece. Today on Bunting's Windows we talk to, yeah I want to tell you son about the Predator drones, you don't need a plan B anymore, all you need is to is to just, hey, come on, but you got spatial awareness? You know what's around you? Look over left. Yeah, you got spatial awareness. This brings up something. I didn't get a clip from it because I just was just too boring, but it does bring up this point. I was watching the, you know, you were watching C-SPAN. I was watching the Pentagon Channel. Yeah. I have that somewhere on my box. I haven't found it yet. Yeah, the Pentagon Channel's on there. It's actually quite good.

The Warrior Zone, Fort Riley, Military Video Game Centers

The U.S. military has opened "Warrior Zones" at bases like Fort Riley, which are high-tech recreation centers where soldiers play networked war games. These facilities, resembling upscale nightclubs or "Dave & Buster's," are seen as a way to identify top-tier talent for drone operation. The concept is compared to the film "The Last Starfighter," where video game proficiency is used as a recruitment tool for actual combat.

fort riley· warrior zone· video games· recruitment· last starfighter

1:43:47 uh... confirmed in the desert military channel which is a commercial issue but you still by hitler but the pentagon's actual government-funded channel is what is called the hitler hitler channel uh... so i'm watching this special on the warriors zone oh yes the first one was opened up at fort riley it was a big deal just opened up in september and uh... the and they're gonna open ten more according to the guy who's putting these things up and i think it's some private company i haven't I got their names, some, just a bunch of initials. And what they've done is at the various military facilities, they've set up this huge, basically Dave and Busters.

1:44:27 What's a Dave and Buster's Dave and Buster's or DMV the Dave and Buster's or you should check one out once in a while when you see you drive by them all the time on the freeway Dave and Buster's are is essentially the the next generation of Chuckie cheese Yeah, which is what this warrior zone is kind of like and essentially it's a huge spacious nightclub filled with computers. Video games. Video games, computers, but these are all networked so they can play network games which is the big deal nowadays. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I know about this. This started in Florida, didn't it? Isn't that where Dave & Buster's started out? I think Dave & Buster's, well Dave & Buster's, I don't know if they have the network stuff. Well the Warrior Zone, that started in Florida. Warrior Zone, wherever Fort Riley is in Kansas, so that's the first one.

1:45:11 They may have had to others kind of the test testing facilities in Florida, but this is not these are not arcades These are recruiting off. No. No this is for the soldiers. This is on base There's no recruiting involved. This. This is a this is a rec center and they have a cafe selling a you know good food yogurt and and they have all these good food these things and these guys go in there and they play basically war games they're playing you know because they're showing it I think that this is one of the ways that they're going to be recruit because I think at some point the army is going to be just like the rest of these guys and they're gonna say look everyone had look is what they're gonna say look let me be clear every all these you know every one of these branches of the military have got these drones

1:46:02 You know, the Air Force, the CIA, which is the fifth branch of the military, I guess. Remotely piloted vehicles, John. And these drones... Remotely piloted vehicles. By having these different advance and having tournaments and all this sort of thing in the warrior zone, you probably identify one or two thrillingly good video game players that you can pull out just like the only reason the movie The Last Starfighter has never come out a second time like every other movie in the world The Last Starfighter was a movie about, you should, if you've never seen it, you should watch it. This should be on our list of movies to watch. You're, uh, it was a kid that was playing some video game that nobody could beat and he beat the game and the next thing you know the aliens grabbed him and said, you're our new general. Took him into outer space because they were in some battle with some other alien force. You win! This kid was so good at the video game. I think that that is the model for the Warrior Zone. There you have it.

1:47:03 Meanwhile, while our next- A little crackpotty, it should have been after the donation segment. No, no, no. I figured we had done by now. No, I put it into the donation segment because I want to show that we, if we, what we just did, what we were just discussing, and if we'd had that, that monotone guy on, we could have made a hundred grand. Two hundred, maybe. Yeah, instead... I'm gonna show my smould by donating to No Agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh yeah, that'd be fab. Yeah, on No Agenda. Enhanced.

Windows Phone Tiles, Microsoft Marketing, Smartphone Design

The Windows Phone user interface is criticized for its use of "tiles" rather than traditional icons, which the hosts find difficult to navigate. Despite the hardware being "snappy," Microsoft's failure to seed the phones to influencers and bloggers is noted as a marketing blunder. The hosts joke about being willing to praise the phone if Microsoft provided a significant financial incentive.

windows phone· microsoft· smartphone· tiles· user interface

1:49:33 I think the problem with the Windows phone, you have to read my column about how I believe it's the tiles that are the issue. Tiles are very difficult to navigate as opposed to icons. When you take your phone and you start looking for icons and colors and all this as opposed to big square tiles, you'll find the phone easier to use. Insofar as the phone itself is concerned, the Windows phone is very slick. And snappy. and very slick and very snappy. One problem they seem to have is for one thing, they have not seeded these phones. Yeah, they haven't like given them to people like us. Yeah. Yeah. Like normally these companies, I'm going to tell people, this is just a fact, they throw these phones into the ether, say here, use one of these phones and try it for a while and see what you think. And because the phones are only, you know, they go out of inventory so quickly, it's not really costing them anything. So they generally speaking, the smart money,

1:50:25 Peppers the phones all over the place where everyone who's writing or blogging and they all get a free phone Which is one of the reasons you want to do this kind of thing and then you get the phone and you like it you may Say something good or if there's a debate on that phone stinks. Oh, I've used that phone It's not that bad right just like Adam just did why I just held but but these people at Mo at Microsoft are idiots You know, there's another way we could make money. They could give us a phone and I don't know $10,000 we could say hey John, what do you think? Let's just try this out. Wow. This phone is so cool Adam. These tiles man. I've never seen anything like it. You were so wrong about the tiles. I find them so easy to navigate. I was wrong. Check please.

A donor from Tokyo reports that "No Agenda Karma" helped him in his personal life, leading to a discussion on the specific $124.07 donation amount. Another donor from Canada, Candace Blaney, contributes $133 Canadian, while the hosts riff on the "clippity-clop" sound of Hillary Clinton's shoes, likening her to a stern school principal.

1:51:12 We can do it. We can do it. Carl Meriden, Malmo, No Agenda Karma is powerful stuff. My last dose got me laid. Whoa, I gotta be careful with that button then. By the way, I want to mention Jose gave us 142.56, 142.56, Marty gave us 127.36, and Carl, the guy who just got laid, gave us 124.07. The most uninteresting number in the universe. Which is the most uninteresting number in the universe, and we're going to put a special link to people who... because look, apparently you can only get laid from the karma. Give the 124.07 and then... Wait, it's the 124.07 get laid karma.

1:51:48 As it supposedly only lasts a week, here's to another week of good karma. Greetings from Tokyo, which has recently been neglected by the earthquake machine. You can give him another karma and see what happens. All right, pull down your pants, buddy. Here it comes. You've got karma. Send pictures! And we hope for another one, two, four. It's going to cost you $124.07 from now on. It's a lot cheaper than a hooker. Using karma to get laid is a bit of an abuse. It's a lot cheaper than a hooker. Candice Blaney in Toronto, Ontario, 12345, howdy John and Adam, been listening to the show for about a year and it's high time I stop being an undouched boner. And stop being a thoroughly cleansed donor. In addition to the 12345 slash $133 Canadian. Really, I thought we were still on the other side of that. I will also dutifully maintain the $5 a month from here on out. My sister Caroline, who introduced me to the show, remains a large boner.

1:52:51 Give her a douchebag. The clives they'll give her a karma. Yeah, of course. Whoa! Holy moly, that was a hard one. You've got karma. Sorry, uh, my karma levels are off. Apparently, her, uh, when she was younger, I guess, the principal's office in her elementary school was near the classrooms and when you heard the clip clopping coming down the hall, you knew somebody was in trouble. Thanks for making my time at the gym both hilarious and informative. I'm telling you that that's what Hillary Clinton, she's like the principal. She comes clippity-clop, clippity-clop, clippity-clop. Then you know you're in trouble. Then you know you're gonna get droned. We came, we saw, he died! Clippity-clop. Mount Pleasant, Illinois is anonymous. Happy holidays from IT Ninja.

Listeners suggest the hosts appear on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, noting Rogan's support for Ron Paul. Other donations include a contribution from Damascus (likely Syria) and a humorous request from a donor in Illinois for "serious karma" to help his relationship with a "hot Mexican MILF." The segment also plugs an Etsy store for a 24-year-old supporter.

Another anonymous donor from Middletown, Rhode Island, $99.99. You missed Eric Brown, you missed Eric Brown. Eric Brown, Felton California 10550. Hey Eric. I'd like to hand out some carpentry bananas to bananas from the Rogan board and request that John and Adam appear on the Joe Rogan experience podcast. Joe Rogan is a Ron Paul supporter and overall cool human being with a comedy podcast that's constantly number one on iTunes. It'd be a great boost for the NOAA agenda show if that happened.

1:54:39 You know, people keep saying this, and I was like, yeah, I'll go on the Joe Rogan show. I like his podcast. I'd be happy to, but he doesn't invite me. Yeah, you can't just go on it. It's not like you, hey, you're doing a podcast, I want to be on today. No, we have the annual podcast meeting. Hey, this is the podcast meeting. I'm supposed to be on your show this week.

Yeah, I would, but I think it's because the way the PayPal operates, I think that's why it came out, I think. I don't know. It seems like he's in Syria. He's got a website or something about hookahs in Syria. I don't know. I don't know what he's saying here. I do know that 3923, which he sent us in pounds, is thank you, brother, in Japanese somehow.

CHAPTER 32 / 40 Discussion

Wild Turkey Thanksgiving, Oven Calibration, No Agenda Merchandise

A report on cooking a wild turkey for Thanksgiving notes its pheasant-like flavor and lack of typical "turkey stench." The host praises a double Kenmore oven at "Camp Mofo" but is advised to calibrate the temperature with a thermometer. The segment concludes with a mention of No Agenda merchandise, including "sexy slave" t-shirts and lanyards sold by Eric the Shill.

Which was something to you know and it just like is not nothing that you'd expect if for one thing it had no it had a real strong pheasant flavor had none of that turkey stench

1:59:52 Yeah, turkey can smell. I agree. It can smell bad. The cheaper the turkey, the cheaper the Safeway turkeys, those big butter balls and all the rest, those things stink. It's like cheap, you know, farmed salmon. Farmed salmon stinks and it oozes a white milk when you cook it. It's just a disgusting product and so are these turkeys. This turkey didn't stink and it had a... and even though it was a long skinny bird with legs that are about three feet long. It was a milf turkey. It had... A tilf. There you go. It had a large long... it was a long but it was a pretty good sized breast. It was a bigger breast than you'd think. A tilf with a big breast. But it wasn't a big fat breast, it was a long thin breast. With a big nipple.

2:00:34 and uh... you okay? It was actually and it cooks a regular turkey more or less or we cooked it breast side down which you could do easily with this type of turkey and uh... I always cook my turkey upside down. Twenty to twenty-five minutes a pound. They're ten pounds, they're not big. This was stuffed and it worked out fine. It was actually a really good bird. Twenty-five minutes a pound, ten pounds so you did 250 minutes? Actually I did three hours. Another list is if you got a 10-pound wild turkey, it's three hours. So I had 325 so at the Camp Mofo We're renting we have a double oven setup, which is outstanding I have to it's a Kenmore which is like Sears brand like how good can this be? This oven is outstanding it is so incredibly good and The day after Thanksgiving fake holiday bogativeness. I did lamb with the broiler Wow

2:01:34 This oven is great. Well, it could be. What's the... did you... have you normalized the temperature with an oven thermometer to make sure the thing is on the money? No, I haven't done that but I will but it's brand new so I guess is I guess Is there like an adjustment I'll rate them properly there an adjustment You want to calibrate it to make sure that your oven is at the right time so when you're doing I don't like to do you know these recipes But there's when you do baking you where you has to be really rigid with everything you do You need to make sure those temperatures are accurate mm-hmm Anyway, Jim for the day. That's right. That's your tip everybody and thank you so much for those of you who did donate it is of course highly appreciated good to see some Knights and dames in there they always come through on the tough days they know what it's like when we're just trying to get by org slash and a remember everybody does no agenda nation calm we have the slash jobs for a human resource locator and we also have the hot sexy slave t-shirts

I got an... do we ever get any money from Eric or is he just selling that stuff and is he like hoarding the money? I never see like a donation from the shill saying here's your money. No actually he's donated a couple of times and he says he wants to do it semi-anonymously he just doesn't think it contributes anything to the show to You know, to mention it so he doesn't. Okay, well good. Good. And now John's time to hit our reality show! That's right! The We Can't Wait Show! Now has a jingle so- Yes we can! We have a...

CHAPTER 33 / 40 Discussion

We Can't Wait Show, Moody's Downgrade, Estée Lauder Tax Strategy

The "We Can't Wait" segment covers Moody's threat to downgrade U.S. credit following the Super Committee's failure to reach a deficit deal. A New York Times front-page story about the Estée Lauder family's tax-sheltering strategies is analyzed as a dual message: inciting public anger against the wealthy while reassuring elites that tax hikes will be superficial and easily bypassed.

moody's· debt ceiling· estee lauder· ronald lauder· new york times

2:03:27 Here's what's going on Moody's has now threatened a downgrade. It's a repeat of last season You remember last season on the we can't wait show We had the we couldn't agree on raising the debt ceiling and of course at the very last minute the very last hour we came in and that what we got the downgrade anyway, but the show was good, it was very exciting. And now the rating agency has issued a statement saying that the Congressional Super Committee's failure to come to a compromise on the U.S. dilemma, deficit dilemma, could trigger a downgrade. So we have about 37 days left and we're just waiting for the president to come out and say, we can't wait. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to continue to cut payroll taxes. That's pretty good sound effect, by the way.

2:04:17 And I'm gonna raise taxes on the millionaires and billionaires. And that's what's coming next on We Can't Wait! Do you remember that jingle? It's from the 70s. Yeah, vaguely. So I have to go back to the New York Times again. Oh, well then you might need the jingle. Do you need the jingle? Go ahead, play it. I think you need the jingle, man. John's gonna haunt the Sunday Times. There's a lot of memes in this paper.

2:05:00 Today the top one is which includes a photo of the guy looking off in fact is the photo the guy's head is over Ronald louder of ST louders. He's looking off. He's not looking off the paper. It's a very That's not you're supposed to be looking into the paper. He's looking off the paper That's interesting family And this is the big this is the big headline and photo at the top above the fold on Sunday And I think there's I think the message here is that it's either a message to the elites or Or it's a message to the... I think it's a combination message, but here's what the headline... you can figure it out. A family's billions artfully sheltered. S.D. Lauder airs tax strategy typify advantages for the wealthy. So what they're saying... there's two messages. One to the slaves.

2:05:49 These bastards, we have to jack up their taxes on these guys because they're cheating us. One. The second message, which is to the elites, is look, this guy's getting away with it, you'll get away with it, just let us raise the taxes, it'll look good on paper. Yeah, we'll figure it all out, it's all going to be good. And then we'll just let, we'll just, you know, don't worry about it, it's not going to really bring in any more money or anything, it's just going to look good, it'll It'll quench the bloodthirst of the masses to tax the rich when you won't really get any more taxes at all. So it's a scam. You know I had in the show notes a couple shows ago, we didn't get to it, I have the number, the amount that people have donated by checking the box on their tax return where you can just donate to reduce the deficit. How much money do you think it is?

Pakistan-China Military Exercises, Gun Industry Consolidation, Diageo Headquarters

Pakistan and China are conducting joint military exercises, signaling a shift away from Washington. In the corporate world, the "Freedom Group" has quietly acquired most major American gun manufacturers, mirroring the consolidation seen in the spirits industry with Diageo. A correction is made regarding Diageo's headquarters, which moved from London to the Netherlands.

2:06:37 $20,000 max. Not quite that bad. No, like $3 million. Oh. $3 million. $3 million. That'll make a big dent in that $15 trillion or whatever it is we owe. It's getting there. Alright was that date for the times is that now there's a couple of things let me just say what's on here's I'll just give you the whole front page all right the post-uprising a new battle this is about Egypt and with the Arab world well how's reshaping itself without mentioning Syria Elvera dies coming in yep NATO Strike kills Pakistani forces raising tensions isn't big bold face 25 soldiers die. They're gonna make you know we're gonna have a we have a beef coming up with Pakistan You know why you know why because they?

2:07:22 They're not doing business with China. Did you read that? No, what? Hold on a second. I'll find it for you. I filed it away under... Here we go. Drone Nation actually. Pakistan and China are staging joint military exercises showcasing their relationship as Islamabad's ties with Washington suffer. So they're doing war games with China. Oh yeah, that's not good. I don't know why these countries don't get a clue. Stay away from China countries. Really? Or are you going to get bombed? When we start the show we should say, in the morning, to all countries listening.

2:08:00 The whole country's staying in China. NBA reaches a deal that's below the fold. Well, that's necessary. Next to that, TV attack ads aim at Obama. Cross party line, this picture of Hillary, which is priceless. I can't wait to see it. And then the little blurbs at the bottom, which lead you inside, or you always have a message in here. Perils of commerce in China, coincidentally in the exact same opposite kitty corner to that article about Pakistan. Apparently if you do business in China, they'll kill you. So that's basically what it says. Some poor guy went over there and it's just miserable for him. Bomb kills 11 in Iraq, then they talk about the California railroad fiasco. Oh yeah, they're gonna do it anyway though, right? Yeah, they don't care. California's so screwed up they don't give a crap. We got no money so let's go spend some.

2:08:48 And then the stealth giant of the gun industry, a whole story about some company, the Freedom Group, which apparently has bought most of the gun manufacturers, the way this works, you know, we have these companies like that. We talked about Diageo earlier. And they bought, if you go to the web, go to the wiki page and see what they own and you'll go, the Diageo company, you go, holy crap, everything is owned by these guys. Yeah, they're big. The holding companies are all over. You know where their headquarters are? London? No. No, hold on a second. Headquarters in the Netherlands. I think they moved to London. No, I think they moved from London to the Netherlands. Oh, well, that's possible. I think I would know about the Netherlands. Not necessarily. Remember my guy Eric, Taxi Eric? Did you ever, did he ever transport you while you were over there? Yeah, he almost got us killed. Yeah. So his account is Diageo.

European Obesity Statistics, UK Women, Malta

Eurostat data reveals that the UK has the highest obesity rates for women in Europe at 24%, followed closely by Malta. The rise in obesity is attributed to the decline of home cooking and the prevalence of processed foods from retailers like Tesco. UK men rank second in obesity, trailing only Malta.

Yeah, it's a classic and then they were saying this is just sexual assault, him kissing her, and then the photographer, I guess who was still alive, came out and said, hey, this was staged three days earlier, you idiot.

Six-Year-Old Sexual Assault Charge, Playing Doctor, Time Magazine Covers

A six-year-old boy in Grant County, Wisconsin, faces felony sexual assault charges for "playing doctor" with five-year-old friends. The hosts criticize the prosecutor, Lisa Rineker, for criminalizing childhood curiosity. This is linked to a broader media theme of "anxiety," as seen on the U.S. cover of Time Magazine, which replaced a revolutionary Egyptian cover with a story on why anxiety is beneficial.

I don't know my name, but do you? Attorneys for the parents of the six-year-old who's being referred to as D said the prosecutor Lisa Lisa Rineker has gone too far by bringing a felony sex charge against a first grader for touching a five-year-old girl inappropriately while playing doctor last fall Wow What is wrong with these assholes? Really?

2:14:17 They're taking all the fun out of being a kid. That's how you learn about it. One of the articles said that the boy if found guilty would be put on the sex offender list when he turns 18. But how crazy is it that in prime time television we have people talking about vagina and penis all the time, but then when kids go to inspect it, you're sex fiend. That's six. First grader, you're just looking around. You don't know anything. This woman should be arrested and thrown in jail. For? In the general population. For being an asshole.

Bird Flu Research, H5N1, Al-Qaeda Poison Plots

Dutch scientists at Erasmus University created a highly infectious version of the H5N1 bird flu virus, sparking fears of bioterrorism if the research is published. Meanwhile, reports suggest Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is collaborating with Boko Haram to develop lethal poisons or "vaccines" to be used by suicide attackers in West Africa.

2:16:13 Have you seen this? Oh yeah, this went all over the place. Yeah, so we have Europe, Asia and South Pacific. Time Magazine has a clearly a protester. It says Revolution Redux, of course this is about Egypt. And it's a guy with a gas mask and glasses, like dark glasses and looking pretty, you know, holding up his fist, you know, in the old Arab Spring fist there with a, looks like he has an iron fist, like he has one of those Nintendo gloves on. And in the United States, we have a sweet little drawing of a little dude with glasses and it says, why anxiety is good for you?

2:16:52 And I was wondering what your take was on this. About what? Why we have a different cover instead of Revolution Redux. Why do we get the little, why anxiety is good for you? Because they're obviously targeting the different audiences based on something such, you know, they get the memo comes down first from the intelligence agency. Says, look, we don't want these people worked up about this. We got to do this. We got to, we had, this has to be pushed loose. Like it's like a conductor of a symphony. Trying to keep the horns, you know, without the... Don't play that so loud. I think it's keeping us calm is what it's meant to do, right? Yeah. Yeah, just keeping us nice and calm and take your time. Don't worry about it. It's okay to have a little bit of anxiety. It's all fine. It's all groovy. Don't worry. Everything is fine. Don't look over there. Don't look at brown people with their fist up in the air, please. Don't get any ideas. Just be calm. Take your meds. All will be good.

2:17:54 Still no form IRS form 990 from the Clinton Foundation. Oh, yeah. Well, I'm sure it'll be out any minute Yeah coming any day now There were a couple of interesting little science things, let me see if we have the science is in Apparently in Gitmo nation lowlands at the Erasmus University in I think that's Rotterdam they have created a bird flu virus And people are rather worried about it. Dutch scientists have created a flu virus which is so deadly there's no doubt whether the research should be published. According to the Volkskrant, which is considered to be a reputable newspaper, although of course completely controlled by the elites, the paper says American experts are worried detailed information could fall into the wrong hands and that terrorists could recreate the virus as a weapon.

2:18:59 The fears are notable because the work was carried out on behalf of the National Institute of Health in the US. Why? Because it's safe to do it over there. If it leaks out, it's only 17 million people. Not like here. You know, we don't want the virus being built here. Yeah, and it'll take out half of Europe. Yeah, well, so what? They're going to get over here eventually. The research team... But by then, we'd have the vaccine. Yeah. Well, of course. This is what it's all about. The research team led by Ron Fouchier who sounds like not a Dutch guy, Professor of Virology at Erasmus Teaching Hospital was able to create a highly infectious variant of the bird flu virus H5N1. Good on you, Holland. Thanks. And here's another interesting, the Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is apparently collaborating with Boko Haram. Have you heard? Have we talked about Boko Haram on the show? Yep.

2:20:00 They're a, they're a, what are they, another terrorist group? It's a made up thing, whatever it is. Isn't that Proco Harum? Yes, they're new, it's the new spin-off group. They couldn't get the trademark because the one guy won't give it up. Yeah, so they're the Proco Harum. Proco Harum. A water shade of file. Well apparently Procol Haram and Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula have developed a horrible virus that is so lethal it is twice as deadly as cobra venom and is meant to be deployed by suicide attackers on some high target operations.

2:20:42 So what would happen is a vet this is a poison or a virus. What is well it's a sounds like a poison. Well actually they call it a vaccine in this story. So I think what they mean is it's it's in a syringe. And the idea is you get if you're at a Proko harem concert and all of a sudden the guy might jump off the stage and stick you right in the neck or maybe it's like curare we can dip some blow blow darts in it or something. sources further conform the, uh, that what they call vaccines are due to first be launched in West Africa and that the dreaded Nigerian base group Proko Haram is the source of deployment. So be on the lookout for that. I'd say, uh, Hey countries don't go to Nigeria. Don't do business with China. Don't go to Nigeria. And then, and then we have the, uh, what did the, uh, that large Hadron collider cost? Was that like 5 billion? It was more than that, wasn't it?

CHAPTER 38 / 40 Discussion

Higgs Boson Particle, CERN, Large Hadron Collider

Physicists at CERN suggest that the Higgs Boson particle, which the $10 billion Large Hadron Collider was built to find, may not actually exist. Researchers are now referring to the particle as a potential "chimera." The hosts express skepticism over the project's cost and the shifting scientific theories used to justify continued funding.

higgs boson· cern· large hadron collider· physics· chimera

2:21:45 It was a huge amount of money. And the whole point was to find... Let me look it up in the book of knowledge. So this thing was intended to find the Higgs boson molecule. I think you call it a molecule or particle. Particle. Well, I'm not quite sure what it cost. John's looking that up and of course this thing runs all under Switzerland and into parts of, I don't know, the whole thing is underground. It's like a very expensive operation. Now CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Family Research, physicists have raised the possibility that Higgs boson, the particle that some believe gave the universe its form after the Big Bang, just might not exist.

2:22:37 Hey, you know, thanks for letting us build this really big thing, but it might be Bogative. Higgs Bogative. Ten billion dollars. Ten billion dollars for the Higgs Bogative particle. Higgs Bogative. And here's what will interest you. Researchers said it might soon be clear whether the Higgs Bogative is a chimera. Wasn't that your thing to look out for? Well, chimeras, their people are chimeras. That's one of the things that you... There's a lot of... there's some studies that... which I think helps explain two or three phenomenons. Phenomena. Chimera is a human. It tends to be a...

2:23:18 Twins in the womb where one of the twins literally absorbs the other twin and becomes a single Person when they're born eats it, but they have two completely separate sets of DNA within them So why are they calling the Higgs bogatyr a chimera? That means it may be so much part of another, not an organism, but another particle that actually doesn't really exist. It was just theorized. It's like you can't say that a person that's a chimera that has the two sets of genes

2:23:54 is two people and you can't separate the one out. There's no way. You can't chop them out of there. I mean, I think this accounts for a lot of transsexual operations where people just can't get over the fact that they're not the sex they were supposed to be. Because when you see Sonny Bonos, whatever his name is. And Colter. When you see anybody that is, you know, they're naturally that sex and it just so happens to be because they're chimeras. But I think it also might explain some DNA anomalies where people do a DNA test on somebody and they get who's did something and but the DNA doesn't match so you let him go. I think there's an issue there that he's addressing. Well anyway, don't worry about it. Get your checkbook out.

2:24:36 If Higgs bogatyr is not found, the researchers say we need to move on to explore the next set of possibilities. This sounds so like bull crap to me. I've always thought this thing was highly suspicious, this whole operation. And now it's like, oh, sorry, $10 billion later, sorry, might not exist. Whatever. We tried. Yeah, we'll do what it doesn't. We tried. That's what really counts. So I think it's back to my theory that this is to create a stargate. Anything I have a as a final clip. We don't have to play it Judge Napolitano did a great rant like a four minute rant

The show concludes with a sign-off from Camp Mofo in Austin and Northern Silicon Valley.

The hosts announce a producer update following the stream.

2:30:40 Alright everybody, those of you who donated, thank you for not being boners and supporting us on the worst day in history for the No Agenda show. Eric the Shill is just- he's in the back channel going, huh? He smells revenue. Pencil, I promise. No Agenda producer update coming up on the stream right after the show. Those guys are like, They think it's great to have no audience for the No Agenda show, they want an even lower audience for the producer update. Perfect, perfect. This is production, I tell you. Gitmo Slave and Mr. Oil Run Industry are very happy that they're doing that. Coming to you from Camp Mofo, where it's chilly and windy here in the center of the Lone Star State, my name's Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Valley, where

2:31:27 It's not the best I've seen. I'm John C. Dvorak. We'll talk to you again on Thursday, right here on No Agenda. What if a country that began with a free market has been transformed into a system of private ownership and government control? What if we went from an imperfect form of capitalism to an abominable form of corporatism? What if the government decided whom to enrich and whom to keep poor? What if individual economic interests didn't match the interests of the government? What if the government viewed a free market economy as a threat to its own interests? What if the government benefited most when it controlled the economy? What if we were living in an age of de Tocqueville's grim warning that a republic will crumble when the government learns to bribe the people with their own money?

2:32:12 What if our economy were being suffocated not only by excess regulations, but also by an active attempt by the government to take over the economy, sector by sector? What if government bureaucrats grew stronger as the private sector grew weaker? What if the load-bearing walls of the entitlement state were buckling under the pressure of excess spending? What if the pillars of free enterprise were buckling under the pressure of excess taxation? What if the occupied Wall Street protesters were being manipulated and pushed and prodded into expressing the basest feelings of greed, class envy and jealousy? What if they were being infiltrated by agents of the government in order to drive demonstrators towards increasingly radical, anti-capitalist and even violent rhetoric? What if the same government that was pretending to prosecute them really supported them?

2:33:00 What if the government uses the angst these people have brought about to ratchet up the nationalization of our economy? What if the government could take any private property it wanted, so long as it paid a fair price? What if the government found ways to take any private property it wanted without paying any price? What if the government produced misleading reports so the economy appeared to grow when it really was shrinking? What if the government made the economy look good, like it was growing, by stealing money from people's earnings and savings, just to fund more government spending? What if some of America's largest corporations were no longer profitable, except when they received money from the government? What if government regulators were really bought and paid for, and the regulatory scheme was really a facade to empower the regulators and enrich the people being regulated?

2:33:50 What if regulations never really even protected you? What if they always served to advance the interests of companies rich enough to capture regulators, but not innovative enough to compete in the free market? What if the centralization of power in the hands of government never served to protect the people? What if regulations stole freedom and simply made it easier for those who didn't want to compete in a free market to use government force to maintain their dominance? What if we didn't need the government in order to have a healthy economy? What if we could have an economy based on a free market, where the voluntary exchanges of goods and services drives all economic activity? What if we were free from government fiat and manipulation? What if free people could shun the government's economy in favor of a free market they cultivate outside the purview of government? What if our money had real value?

2:34:41 What if the federal government decided what time of day it is? What if the federal government made it a law that you had to change every clock in your house whenever it told you to do so? What if the bureaucrats forced you to change your clock so that your children had to walk home from school in the dark? What if we were a nation of sheep who just accepted all this? What if Democrats weren't the only ones who thought they could manage the economy? What if Republicans claimed that they could manage it too? What if almost all Republicans and all Democrats really believed in big government? What if all the major Republican presidential candidates have indicated they believe that they can best manage the economy, except for one of them?

2:35:23 What if that one says that if he were elected, he wouldn't manage the economy at all? He'd turn it over to the free choices of free people. What if the elites in banking and government and in both political parties feared this candidate and didn't want you to hear from him? What if he were actually elected president? What if we were free again? What if the whole purpose of government was to negate freedom? What if freedom was a myth? What if the Constitution meant nothing to the government? What if everything the government has, or owns, or controls has been stolen? What if I'm right? What if the government is wrong? What if it's dangerous to be right when the government is wrong?
