About this episode

Andrew Breitbart died at age 43 of natural causes just weeks after promising to release damaging footage of Barack Obama at CPAC. The sudden collapse of the media mogul in Brentwood has sparked intense skepticism regarding the official narrative, especially given his family ties to Orson Bean and his recent aggressive stance against the institutional left. Mainstream outlets like CNN and the New York Times are already labeling Breitbart a mere conservative blogger to minimize his impact as a researcher and cultural force.

Russian politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky claims the Kremlin possesses orbital weapons capable of destroying continents in fifteen minutes, a statement coinciding with the activation of U.S. anti-missile radar in Turkey. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the Senate on the Syrian conflict and the TAPI pipeline, while the Pentagon admitted to disposing of 9/11 victim remains in a landfill. In North Korea, the United States is substituting traditional grain aid with soy-based energy bars as Gazprom moves to secure a natural gas pipeline through Vladivostok to reach the Japanese market.

Billy Crystal hosted an Academy Awards ceremony that largely ignored the Ron Paul media blackout while mocking the Republican primary field. The segment features a deep dive into the verbal tics of Hillary Clinton and a bizarre archival discovery of Newt Gingrich acting in the 1984 HBO film Countdown to the Looking Glass. Producers Alan Mock and Sean Paulson contribute to the value-for-value model as the show examines the strange reality of bear bile farming and the latest Facebook marketing logout experiments.

Andrew Breitbart Death, Hillary Clinton Drone Claims

Andrew Breitbart died at age 43 of what officials termed natural causes, though claims of foul play circulate due to his recent CPAC appearance. Speculation suggests Breitbart possessed damaging videotapes of Barack Obama that he intended to release. The discussion references Hillary Clinton's perceived ruthlessness regarding political enemies and the suspicious timing of the media figure's sudden collapse.

00:00 You need a very expensive blasting cap. Adam Curry, John C. DeVore. It's Thursday, March 1st, 2012. Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination Episode 387. This is no agenda. I have no videotapes of Obama here at Camp MoFo. In the capital of the drone star state known as Austin, Texas. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry. And from Northern Silicon Whistle, I'm John C. WEEKU! It's crackpot and buzzkill in the morning! Hey, hey, I don't know what you're gonna do there. You gotta let me say Dvorak is the cue, not John C. Whistle. Well, do you want to do over or... Nah, it's okay. John C. Whistle. Well, now that David Letterman has stolen your gig.

00:48 Which is just ridiculous. I'm gonna have to get another instrument. Yeah. Like it, but make it... I don't, there's not that many good instruments like the slide whistle. I mean I could play the piccolo, but it's not as funny. I like the, um, what's that thing you spin? The ratchet? Oh yeah, I got one of those. You got one of those? Handy? Uh, well if you can wait one second. One... Squirrel! Hey citizen. Two... That really wasn't worth it. Really, it's not worth it. Hello? Oh God. Alright. I swear to have one of them. I don't know where it went, but I do have this. I found this over there. Okay. It's not good. Only but a goodie. That's gonna replace the slide whistle. Screw it. Stick with the slide whistle. I like the slide whistle better. Hey man, so you saw the news, huh? Yeah, they're, I guess, Santorum has a donor named Foster Freeze. No, they're killing people. Did you know that? They're killing people.

CHAPTER 02 / 42 Discussion

Blogger Labeling, Media Narrative, Orson Bean Connection

Mainstream media outlets are labeling Andrew Breitbart as a "conservative blogger" to diminish his influence as a pundit and researcher. Breitbart was the son-in-law of comic Orson Bean, who outlived his grandson. The narrative surrounding his death is viewed as a warning to other bloggers and independent media creators to remain silent on sensitive political topics.

01:53 You think that Breitbart was killed? Are you kidding me? Of course he was killed. Wait a minute, don't... isn't dying... drop... wait, wait, wait, let me get this straight. Isn't walking down the street... la da da da da da da... and then dropping dead... Yes. ...a natural cause? Well that is... you know, you can... dying of curare is a natural cause. You just poisoned. So everything is a natural cause if you think about it. Yeah, well I know why he was killed. It wasn't because of Wiener? Well, I thought of that first. I'm like, oh man, he never should have gotten onto Hillary's ass. Yeah. You know, that's bad. Hillary will drone you in a second. No, this is what he said at the most recent CPAC. Did you catch this?

02:36 Okay, here we go. Dude. That's why I have no videos. By the way, moon bases are great. If you're gonna do anything, you don't announce it, then do it. You do it. I'm telling you, the guy's 43 natural causes. Look, now they're actually killing people like us.

03:24 This is- You don't have any videos. No, but listen, I'm buying some more guns today. And the guns aren't gonna help. And booby traps. Booby traps, do that. That's a good idea. Booby traps. Booby trap the house. I got booby traps. Just stay away from me. No, this is- Dude, I am telling you. Dude! Dude. They look- they kill anybody. You know that these people kill. You know they killed their biggest Democratic supporter because he figured out that something was weird with Obama. Killed him. They would have killed fun. He had some videotape. Where's the videotape now? Well, now we'll never see the videotape. I'm sure... Look, if I had the videotape, I'd be like burning it right now. I'd be like, John, I'll be right there. Hold on a second. I got to burn the videotape.

04:14 No, no, no. Remember they were preparing for this? They were preparing for some news to come out. They were talking about, oh, well, you know. We talked about that a couple episodes ago. Yeah, I don't know what it is though. I have no idea. Well, it's just one of those things. Besides the two Obamas or the, or the maybe, maybe a robot. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. You know, a guy like Andrew Breitbart, it's just highly suspicious. You know, he did a lot of damage with Acorn. I mean, he really understood where the bodies were buried. So, to me that was just... You know he was the son-in-law of Orson Bean, the comic? I do not know Orson Bean, the comic. Yeah, very famous cowboy. Orson Bean, the comic is old now. He's like 86 or something like that. He outlived his grandson. You would know he's the son-in-law. Whatever. And yeah, by... doubled his age, I guess. And yeah, he was quoted in one of the news reports and they said Orson Bean. They said, well how many people named Orson Bean? But notice what they're saying. They're saying

05:17 The the the the horror media is saying blogger Andrew Breitbart okay, the guy was like you know he was a if anything you could call him pundit or Researcher or anything, but it's a very clear message. Hey bloggers. Hey bloggers Hey bloggers citizen you got any videos better shut up Yeah, I'm actually looking at the Twitter and I see here conservative blogger.

CHAPTER 03 / 42 Discussion

Oscar Awards, 2012 Presidential Race, Ron Paul Media Blackout

Billy Crystal hosted the Academy Awards where he joked about the Republican primary field, mentioning a "charismatic crack addict" in reference to the candidates. Media coverage by figures like Zbigniew Brzezinski and John King continues to exclude Ron Paul from serious discussion despite his delegate count. CNN's election maps and graphics consistently place Paul at the bottom of lists regardless of his actual performance in various states.

07:15 Unless you want to start with something because I got a lot of stuff By the way, I see I just looking at your clips on you you're you're loaded. I have a I have too many clips. Yeah But people will get funny ones. Oh, let's let's tell you what you want to do the quick Oscar rundown quickly because we're not much about it. Oh, why do I want to talk about the Oscars? Well, because there was one little thing in there that I think was interesting because it was one of the memes we picked up on the, or I picked up on the last show and then you immediately saw what was going on. But tell me what you think is peculiar about the Billy Crystal being funny at the Oscars clip. A dark knight, an American psycho, a charismatic crack addict. You'll get to choose one on Super Tuesday.

08:09 But right now ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Academy Award winner and be careful you're in his eyeline Christian Bale. All right. Well, did you hear that the interesting little aspect of that? You listed three. Yeah, of course. This is not new. It's like I'm already over it. It's like there's only three. The big new Brzezinski was interviewed on Fareed Zakaria. On his GPS show the audio is too crappy to play someone sent it to me same thing He's like, oh, we got a guy who's trying to hide his money. We got another guy who's a whack job Religious nut and then we got another guy who used to be speaker of the house and is insane. I

08:57 And that's it. Now it's just like Ron Paul doesn't even exist. Well, what's new about that? Yeah, and then I see... It's just the way they're doing it now is like, wait a minute... Well, I love John King's little map. He has this new system where he taps on a state and he says, okay, now this state. And so, and the line... And this state, and if we do this and that... He's like a maniac. Yeah, he's just coked out. But then at the bottom you see Ron Paul should consistently be the second on the list with the delegates. But he's at the bottom of the list. It's Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, Paul. And Paul's number is like 180, which would be above Santorum when he clicks on a state. But it's... It's what it is. Either people will come out and vote for the liberty they deserve or not. Oh, they're not going to vote for it? Maybe not.

CHAPTER 04 / 42 Discussion

North Korea Food Aid, Energy Bars, Vladivostok Pipeline

The United States is sending "nutritional assistance" in the form of energy bars and biscuits to North Korea rather than traditional grains. This diplomatic move coincides with Russian efforts to build a natural gas pipeline from Vladivostok through North Korea to South Korea and Japan. Russia's Gazprom seeks to capture the Japanese market following the shutdown of Japan's nuclear facilities after the Fukushima disaster.

kim jong-un· gazprom· vladivostok· south korea· japan· natural gas

09:50 So this thing, North Korea cracked me up. This really, really cracked me up and I was following the pipes on this one. So Lucifer comes out, her département d'estat, and, hey, hold the presses! We got good news! We're working with Kim Jong-un and we're gonna send him food! And the crazy thing is, if you actually read the stories, we're not going to send them grain or wheat. No, no, we're sending them biscuits. And energy bars. Yes. Literally. No, that's what it says. Energy bars. Every story, energy bars. Really? I guess we're overloaded with energy bars. We got too many energy bars. Send us a five-hour, buddy.

10:38 So I'm like, okay, what happened that all of a sudden now we've got We've got this thing cooking. You know, what's happening? And this is this is it'll go in a little crazy direction, but I'm not that crazy. I don't think so the Russians In November they had actually done a deal with the wounds daddy. Oh Kim jong-il to Run the Vladivostok pipeline and people please get your maps out Take a look at where Russia is where Vladivostok is in relation to North Korea so the idea is to run the pipeline, which is what this has always been about because South Korea needs gas they need natural gas so Kim Jong-il had set the deal for

11:27 Pipeline from Vladivostok to North Korea North Korea to South Korea and then from South Korea It's just a hop skip and a jump to a brand new market that has come out You know what the market this is John. No, I don't this is Japan. It's not a brand new market It is now because of the nukes exactly we need to pump some gas over they need gas big-time because the the nuclear facilities are all offline and they need electricity and So this is a real problem. So Kim Jong-il, Un's daddy-o, he cut the deal with Dmitry Medvedev, who I didn't, I don't know if you knew this, but he used to be the CEO of Gazprom. I didn't know that actually. Yeah, so, but it's just to put it in context is interesting to note. So he cuts the deal and then Kim Jong-il dies. Inconvenient, of course, but you got to think, you know, who doesn't want the Russians

12:23 to really succeed at anything. Well that would be us. Yeah, Lucifer of course is the United States. We don't want them taking over North Korea. This is what North Korea has always been this whole problem about China and Russia. So we don't want that. So then Un who just is a dope with a bad haircut he's like oh okay that's good I'll take that. So he says yeah this is a good and I have all these stories here let's see Gazprom meeting with officials to push forward Vladivostok's liquefied natural gas project. This is from... this is all just two months ago. So of course this is heating up and then we got to stop that. So what do we do? We block it and we say, no that's not happening because we're giving them food and so we're going to get back to the nuclear talks. Like, oh this is really important, the nuclear talks.

CHAPTER 05 / 42 Discussion

Donald Gregg, North Korea Nuclear Capabilities, Bobby Ray Inman

Former Ambassador Donald Gregg appeared on PBS NewsHour to discuss North Korea's nuclear program, noting that their existing weapons are plutonium-based rather than uranium-based. Plutonium weapons are characterized as less stable and less powerful than uranium alternatives. Gregg's personal connections in Austin, Texas, include Admiral Bobby Ray Inman, a former high-ranking official at the CIA and NSA.

donald gregg· plutonium· uranium· bobby ray inman· cia· nsa

13:19 So Uncle Don is on PBS last night. He's on what show? News Hour. Oh. Yeah, so Uncle Don's on News Hour. This is my Uncle Don, former security advisor. For the government. No, we could say it. Uncle Don. You can look him up on the Wikipedia and find everything you need to know about him. A lot of pages on Uncle Don. And so he's on the news hour and I think, you know, Uncle Don is now 86. Same age as Orson Bean. That's right. And I'm not dead yet. Well, you're not 43. No, I think I have protection. I'll tell you why in a minute. So Uncle Don's on the news hour and they have, so he's in New York in the studio.

14:03 And they had this woman from Georgetown University and I swear to God she must be a Russian asset because everything Uncle Don says, she's like, no, no, this is, this is nothing. This ain't no good. This is a step backwards. I missed this. I needed to see that. Did you tape any of it? It's a, it's online. It's in the show notes. 387.na show notes.com. Then Uncle Don let something slip, which I was like, huh? He's any and he fumbled for words. I'm like, maybe he wasn't supposed to say that or I don't know not what was it? Well, I'm gonna play it for you. So the so the clue here is that you know, everyone's saying Oh, this is great because we have the six-party talks. The six-party talks are Russia North Korea, South Korea Japan the United States and the Chinas and they're all saying it's about nuclear weapons and

14:53 Well, this is very interesting when you listen to what Uncle Don says about North Korea's nukes. North Korean statement. This is that woman, by the way, who I got hurt just because my Uncle Don, I'm like, stop. No, no, go away. You I don't like you. Uncle Don is good, which is quite different from the U.S. statement issued today on whether or not that even brings us back to where the six party talks stalled in October 2008. It does not specifically state plutonium which is the problem with the actual nuclear weapons they have today. And in fact Ambassador Gregg as we understand it the North Korean statement did mention uranium it didn't mention plutonium what's the significance of that? Well that's very significant because the nuclear weapons they have produced have been produced through plutonium not uranium. Oh! I'm like really that's significant why?

15:44 Well, because plutonium nuclear weapons, from what I've been able to, and I am not a nuclear physicist, they're lame. Plutonium nukes are instable, they're great for dirty bombs, but they're not really, they're like ladyfingers compared to a uranium-based nuclear weapon. Do you have any expertise in this field, John? No, not necessarily, but I've never heard this particular analysis before. I'll have to look into it. Well for him to say, hey, this is very significant because it's plutonium. It's not uranium. It's plutonium. And I guess a plutonium explosion is an implosion and it's very hard to... This is what I think the fat boy was. Was that Hiroshima? Fat boy or was that Nagasaki? One of the two. Yeah, okay.

16:37 And you know, it's very difficult and you can only basically blow up, you know, one city. You can't like nuke out a whole country. It's just not a good bomb from everything I can read. That's the gist of it. And so it's clear from what Ambassador Davies said that our goal is to get at denuclearization of North Korea. But these steps are in the right direction and I would suggest to Balbina and others who are so deeply skeptical that we stop looking backward to where we have been but let's look forward to where we can go. And what has been agreed to in Beijing sets a very clear path toward preliminary steps

17:18 that can lay the basis for significant negotiations on denuclearization in the future. But that's going to take time. It isn't going to happen immediately because there are decades of mistrust between our two countries that we have to overcome. So now Uncle Don was ambassador to South Korea amongst many other things. So he knows the region and I'm convinced he's obviously still, if not in the agencies, he's in the loop. So I send him an email. I say, Uncle Don, man, first of all, you look great. He looks like 60 and he doesn't look 86 at all. And I say, you know, I was great seeing what you had to say, but what up with that woman? I'm saying, you know, knowing what Gazprom's plans are with the pipeline, what was she, a Russian asset? So this morning I got an email back. Thanks, Adam.

18:07 Gee, I often think of you and Mickey there in Austin and how my Aunt Leah was on the faculty at UT. By the way, one of my best friends, Bobby Inman, what's his name? Inman? Yeah. Bobby Inman is in Austin. I'm like, Bobby Inman? Who's that? Hello, Bobby Ray Inman? Yeah, he's very famous. This guy was like deputy director of the CIA, NSA. So I don't know if Uncle Don's sending me a message or not. Like, you know, I think the message is find him, see cover. I don't know what it is, but he is like completely to go have a beer with the guy, which is exactly what I emailed back. Send me Bobby Ray's number. I'm going to go have a beer with him for sure. And so Bobby, Bobby Ray Inman, I mean, this guy is he's huge. I mean, when you look at his resume,

18:59 So he completely ignored my question, which I think means go talk to Bobby Ray and you might get some answers. Cool though, right? Yeah, well, you definitely can go have a little chat with Bobby Ray. Oh yeah, me and Bobby Ray are going to be best buds. So then I come across this YouTube video from Russia. And there's a... Well, you know, Inman was born in Texas. He's from Ronesboro. Oh yeah, and I think... So it makes sense that he moved back there. Oh yeah, yeah. And he ran a whole bunch of big companies later. He was an admiral in the Navy first. And then he retired. It's interesting. He started off as director of naval intelligence and he went to the DIA. Right. And then he became director of the National Security Agency. And then he went to the CIA. So this guy knows everything. He has massive credits. He's gonna be my drinking buddy.

CHAPTER 06 / 42 Discussion

Vladimir Zhirinovsky, Russian Orbital Weapons, Global Gas Competition

Russian politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky claimed on television that Russia possesses "quiet and peaceful" orbital weapons capable of destroying continents within 15 minutes. This rhetoric surfaces as the U.S. activates anti-missile radar in Turkey, potentially blocking Russian gas pipelines. Global competition for natural gas markets involves the Israeli Leviathan field and efforts to bypass Russian energy dominance in Europe and Asia.

vladimir zhirinovsky· duma· gazprom· leviathan field· turkey· georgia

19:50 Bobby Ray you hope oh yeah, oh yeah, it's gonna be my I'm sorry Matt. I didn't know you were uncle Don's kid so So now so there's so the Russians are really pushing back and you know There's all you know Putin here Putin warned against putting too much pressure on North Korea saying that its nuclear status is unacceptable for Russia But that efforts to test the strength of the new leader are impermissible in other words back off Lucifer you Clinton guy get out of my way you got to stop that so

20:29 Here's where it gets a little crazy, but I find this, and this is, I'm going to presume that the translation is correct. Vladimir Volkovich Zahirinovsky, who is now a politician, but was colonel of the Russian army, founder and leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia, vice chairman of the State Duma, and member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. And he's being interviewed on Russian television. I will play his audio in the background. And here's the translation. What remains is Russia possessing orbital launch capability space power. Russia with lots of money, resources and weapons that no one knows about them yet. With them we will destroy any part of the planet within 15 minutes. Not an explosion, not a ray burst, not some kind of laser, not a lightning, no, but a quiet and peaceful weapon.

21:24 Whole continents will be put to sleep forever and that's all you will have to dig in the wreckage and debris of your buildings and all of you 120 million will die if you will ever demand the Curlies from us Corrals from us so goes for the rest of world everyone should be thinking about the future about the future of everyone You should start thinking about that And then he goes to yell about the Georgian dude Shaka's Vili and he says hey Do you remember what happened to Fukushima remember that? Be careful of Shaka's Vili so he's talking to the Titan guy from Georgia or there might be another tsunami on the other side of the planet in the Caucasus that would be for you and

22:06 That's what this guy is saying. I'm just listening to the audio. It sounds like the translation is fair. So how about this for a setup? Russia needs to start exporting. They need to sell gas other places than to Europe and they're slowly getting closed off. You know, of course we have the Leviathan field now in Israel and it looks like we've got the US obviously coming in to help the Cypriots and again move everything with the Israeli gas, move it through Greece, through Italy, and they're really trying to block all these Russian gas prompt pipelines. Coincidentally, the US all of a sudden turns on the anti-missile radar facility in Turkey

22:51 Which is exactly where all the Russian pipelines run through. So I think there's a lot of posturing going on. Maybe the Russians used this phenomenal weapon to create the new market in Japan. Is this the second half of the show? No, it's not the second half of the show. Normally that is the second half of the show, but to have this guy saying it like that, and to have all these things heating up at the very same time... Oh, did I lose you? I don't know, did you? Yeah, for a second. You said it was pretty suspicious is what you were gonna say? Hello? No, it depends on this, the credibility of this character. Well, one thing's for sure, there's a fight going on and it's, uh...

23:43 And North Korea is very important and the Russians only want to just complete that pipeline to get their gas down to South Korea and to Japan. That's an obvious given and you just go back and you see all this was heating up two months ago. Then all of a sudden we're going to send them energy bars? Yeah, maybe Kim Jong-un is just such an idiot that he likes energy bars. He's like no No, I think that they're just screwing up screwing with him with the energy bars They don't want to really make it look like they're doing anything I don't know what the point of the energy bars thing is I think Oon is pretty Cosmopolitan to be honest about you spend most of his time in Paris hmm, so he knows which way that you know what's wrong So I'm not completely buying the fact is because he's kind of chubby that he's an idiot

CHAPTER 07 / 42 Discussion

North Korea Food Rations, Nutritional Assistance, Soy Side Effects

Reports indicate North Korea is loosening restrictions on citizens bringing food back from China, though the specific amounts remain questionable. U.S. officials justify sending energy bars instead of rice and beans to prevent the aid from being diverted to government banquets. Concerns are raised regarding the health effects of soy-heavy energy bars, including claims they impact brain function.

bbc· npr· luna bars· soy· nutritional assistance· north korea

24:29 uh... there was one interesting tidbit i picked up on the bbc had some guidance singapore that was just a weirdo i don't know how he's picking a lot of weird stories including the bear bile farming story which i never heard of but he had a day did bring out one story on uh... on north korea that i thought was a little odd cribber played crazy bbc story about north korea and lucy there are reports that the north korea is uh... loosening it's uh... on the

25:30 they were asked to bring back two and a half tons of food. Now, if these reports are true and that amount has gone down to one ton, that does indicate that North Korea is perhaps very keen indeed to get more food into the country. Why is less clear? Because Kim Jong-un wants his energy bars. Let me get this straight. It's obvious. So I take a permit out, I go to see my, you know, my uncle in somewhere in China. And then I have to come back with energy bars. A ton. Two tons. Two thousand or two or four thousand pounds. Five thousand pounds of food. How do I get this five thousand? Do I have to bring a truck?

26:13 How do I move the 5,000 pounds of food? With your U-Haul. That story is weird. Yeah. So the food thing to me is just bogus. There's no... No, no, I think you're right. I think if there's a pipeline involved, which seems to be the theme for the last month, it's probably what it is. And it makes nothing but sense because the Japanese are hard at first, and you can gouge them. They're in a position to be gouged. Well, they don't seem to care about it. Here's the report that kind of tipped me off. This is when Kim Jong-il and Medvedev met when he was still alive, just before he got killed on the train. Agreed in principle to lay a gas pipeline through North Korea to South Korea. According to insiders, the project is a tactical move by Russia, which finds itself in fierce competition with China.

27:10 Russia has bickered with China over the export price of Siberian gas since 2008. Remember, that's when the talks stalled in 2008 and they reached a stalemate due to Chinese demands for a dramatic price cut. So Russia could now be attempting to pressure China by tapping South Korea and Japan as alternative markets for its natural gas. And if we know right at a higher price, yeah, Japanese will pay anything and we got a jack up the price exactly the Japanese by the way as a culture are not known for negotiating No, they're they will negotiate but they're not known for being cheap. You know, like some cultures are India like the Chinas cheat the cheap Chinas the Chinas are always into making things is inexpensively as possible best prices their motto and

28:01 So they if you can have the Japanese as a market because they pay taught they're they're actually known for paying top dollar top bucks There's a big difference between top dollar and best price Yes, and so that's a great market if the Russians can pull that off I can see where the and the Chinese will get you know get shorted on the on the deal Just think about they're against it. Well of course they're against it In America, I think that we're just like, you know, we don't give a crap as long as we're in on the deal. Here, have an energy bar. I know what we got. We got them backed up at the warehouse. Send them to North Korea. Send in the, what are those bars called? What are they called? Luna bars. Cliff bar. Now, Luna bar is better. A Luna bar. A Luna bar.

28:48 Some of those bars by the way, yeah Luna bar are some of the worst tasting things imaginable Yeah, and they're filled with soy they make your brain shrink Yeah, probably soy and acid make you make your stomach hurt and make your brain shrink so to me You know we got to keep a sharp eye on this because it one thing's for sure the food thing is bullcrap energy bars really And it's like, well, we didn't want to send them healthy food because we were afraid. NPR actually had this report. Hold on a second. It really irks me. Well, now I actually am happy because now I feel much happier knowing that it's all bullcrap. Listen to this piece of the NPR report about

29:34 In the transcript they say energy bars. They don't say it in the report, but listen to why they weren't sending healthy food North Koreans wanted to have rice and grains, but US officials feared that could just end up on banquet tables So instead they're giving what they call nutritional assistance like energy bars Banquet tables banquet tables.

Value for Value Model, Domain Name Forwarding

The show promotes its "value for value" funding model, encouraging listeners to donate based on the utility they receive. Producers have forwarded various domain names to the show's website, including cheatingpoliticians.com and insincerevoiceovers.com. One producer, an employee at Old Navy, suggested the host's voiceovers would be suitable for internal corporate training videos.

value for value· cheatingpoliticians.com· karmarize.com· insincerevoiceovers.com· old navy

38:42 He, uh, anyway, that will be our two executive producers and the associate executive producer for show 387. We'd like to have other people do this for the Sunday show. We'd like to do better on the Sunday show. Better on the Sunday show as possible. I'm tired. I'm working hard here. Dvorak.org slash NA channel Dvorak.com slash NA noagendashow.com and noagendanation.com and you can find donate buttons there and Look in your email box and find one of the letters that we've written you. Yeah, please. devorak.org slash n-a. Of course, we've always had some people trying to help us out. So a lot of reminders about Saturday being the 3rd of the 3rd so you can do your 333 donation. That'd be very helpful towards the program. So we can continue to follow the pipes and other douchebaggery that is happening around because it will actually make you feel better when you know what's happening.

39:38 And so you can... I mean, seriously, if we do anything social this weekend, I can't wait to lay the energy bar thing on people. Yeah, yeah, really, yeah, we're sending them energy bars because they're afraid the rice and beans will end up on the banquet table. Rice and beans. I guarantee you people will go like, what? What? It'll make you look smart. When I go to a banquet, I'm always looking forward to rice and beans. Thank you to some producers who are forwarding some interesting domain names to our noagendashow.com website as an example cheatingpoliticians.com which I like it's pretty good. Karmarize.com that's another good one and here's my favorite actually coming from our producer Andrew who works at Old Navy.

40:30 As a wage slave, he says, oh Adam, I just, please, I can't hear the voiceovers you're doing for auditions anymore. Although he says you'd be great for our internal training videos. And he is forwarding insincerevoiceovers.com to the show. Which I think insincere is a good description. Yeah, I think so too. Everyone else out there, if you don't have a cruddy, you can always try and help us out by propagating our formula. Our formula is this. We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Order! We know you're one, so you might as well yell it out loud. Shut up, slave. So without going too far into it, John, I would just like to say that the most recent Wikileaks release

CHAPTER 12 / 42 Discussion

WikiLeaks Stratfor Emails, Israeli Intelligence, NSA Headquarters

The recent release of 5.5 million Stratfor emails by WikiLeaks is characterized as a move to bolster the organization's waning credibility. Speculation suggests Israeli intelligence may be behind the leaks, noting historical instances where Israel accessed U.S. satellite data. Julian Assange's current living situation in a UK mansion is contrasted with the legal troubles of Bradley Manning.

wikileaks· stratfor· julian assange· bradley manning· israel· nsa

41:31 of Stratfor emails is, I mean, it's so obvious that whoever is behind WikiLeaks, and I'm thinking now it's probably Israeli intelligence, is only doing this to make WikiLeaks look credible. There's just, the whole thing is so bogative. I mean, have you, I mean, you know, it's like, oh, 25 million emails! So I download the 7Z zip file. Did you get the, you got the big file? No, there's no big file. They only have like 2,500. They had a big file up for a while or something. No, bullcrap. Bullcrap. And the whole thing is filled with, you know, well, WikiLeaks this, WikiLeaks, it's only to make WikiLeaks look credible.

42:16 And I think that probably, now that I think about it, that it probably is Israeli intelligence. And actually, as I was reading about Bobby Ray, Bobby Ray started his career by finding out that they had given the Israelis access to our satellites to view certain areas of the world as it pertained to Israeli security. This is just from what I found online, a little bit of research this morning. But it turns out the Israelis had jacked into more areas of the database and they were looking at Iraq, Iran, all those other places that they had no business looking. So, you know, it's a very precarious relationship we have with the Israelis. And the more I think about it, you know, Bradley Manning might very well just be an Israeli spy. And this is probably why Obama even said, the guy's guilty, you know, lock him up. And Julian Assange probably too.

43:11 I think that's much more likely now in hindsight that this is Israeli intelligence messing around with stuff. Stratfor, please. What a joke. I like this idea. Well let's keep our eye on it because the whole idea whoever's behind it it's so obvious with all these oh Wikileaks, Wikileaks, Wikileaks. That's all your top stories is Wikileaks? It's just to make them look credible. I can't see any other reason. Who gives a crap? There's no other organization behind WikiLeaks anymore. And by the way, if I am to be extradited or if I'm arrested or you know whatever, I'm in big trouble like Julian Assange, whose mansion am I going to be staying at? The guy's sitting in a mansion. That's a good point. Come on. I mean, whose mansion is that? He's living it up. He's definitely living it up. He's doing speeches at the London School of Economics. He's hanging out.

44:12 So don't fall for any of that and Stratfor even Bobby Ray was quoted about Stratfor too. He's like, yeah, yeah, what he says. Yeah, it's bad for them because their competition is going to get their business. That's all he had to say, which makes sense. Yeah, and it's true. Who is their competition? I get Stratfor emails all the time. They go to spam. There is a. They have a lot of competition. I mean, there's like something like five to ten thousand of these little operations in the United States. They all get paid by the apparently bottomless pit of money that these, that the major intelligence agencies have and they can't hire all these people. They're already loaded to the gills. I mean, apparently the NSA

44:58 They got like 30,000 people or something in that building outside of, you know, wherever they are in the middle of Virginia. Yeah, like... I don't know, it's some huge... it's one of the world's biggest office complexes. Yeah. In the world. Maybe we should start a little... What are these people doing? They're in the marketing department? I always wonder, some of these companies, they have so many people. It's like, what are they doing? Oh, they're in the marketing department. What the hell is the marketing department doing with all these people? Doing sales. Doing sales. Oh man. Did you see I watched some of that Facebook? Marketing conference that they held in New York to and they talked to the biggest advertisers in the world I'm talking American Express. I'm talking at Johnson & Johnson I'm talking PepsiCo and this was the big the big show. Did you see any of that? No, I missed the whole thing. Mr. C-Span now they were streaming it live and

CHAPTER 13 / 42 Discussion

Facebook Marketing Conference, Logout Advertisements, Peter Guber

Facebook held a marketing conference in New York to pitch new advertising products to major brands like American Express and PepsiCo. The company is introducing "logout experiences" and turning user stories into paid advertisements in the newsfeed. This strategy aligns with Peter Guber's theories on the power of storytelling in business and marketing.

facebook· sheryl sandberg· peter guber· macy's· advertising· logout

45:54 And it was actually the internet's yeah, I had the audio mix I was watching C-SPAN and that at the same time and they did have one hot chick who came out she like but she's only was there to introduce Sarah Sandberg I'm like Cheryl whatever her name is but they're their big thing, you know, you know, and you were so spot-on that you know Google this was basically Google's parades and we're really good We can really snoop on everything so advertise with us Facebook's big ploy Stories are now advertisements Don't think ads, think stories. Like what? This comes right out of the Peter Guber book that came out this year and Guber went on the road to discuss this book everywhere and I think even went to you know discuss it with the Facebook folks that and that's the theme of the book. Really? Well that's their whole magic ploy and the big kicker

46:51 when you log out of Facebook turns out that 70 million people log out of Facebook daily this you know the and they had this douchebag sales guy with brown shoes who talked a bit like William Shatner like you know now we're going to show an ad when you log out who's cool they've hit the home run with that one out of the park there was not a single mention of You know, we know everything, we've got all the data, we know what people are pooping, we know what they're drinking, none of that. Just like when people... Well I think, to be honest about it, I think the company is essentially naive, especially when dealing with some sharp operators like the guys at Google, who are, you know, essentially, Sergei's a, you know, Ukrainian. Hello! Hello!

47:46 And so they probably saw that all that negative, or what appeared to be negative publicity for Google. you know that they can do all the stuff they probably I'm sure they had a meeting with some of these we don't have a hell or it they fell for it yeah they've they fell for it that shows you that they were where the company's at they do not have that you know the guy who know understands of shark government you know shark marketing you just listen to the now listen to them just just listen to the I have a billion dollars to spend and I'm in the audience at the Museum of Natural History or whatever beautiful arena, big screens, everything, and I'm listening to this idiot. Those first three placements, the right-hand side, the newsfeed and desktop and mobile, they're available as of today. Woo! Woo! Oh, I'm sorry. I thought it was the new iPod, the new iPhone 3. It's available as of today? And the fourth optional placement, the logout experience will come online. Woo! Logout experience! In April.

48:45 So, let's take a look. Hopefully... He's studied Steve Jobs and he's trying to pull the same thing out. Oh, everybody wants to be Steve Jobs. Premium on Facebook is pretty useful for a variety of objectives. Whether it's direct response or brand. Brand! Let's go back to our fun new story that we're introducing today offers. Here's Macy's page. There we go. Mission control, mission control. Oh, with their page is now mission control, publishing that offer as a story and then investing in the distribution, which means you're going to pay, pay us. You invest in the distribution and it shows up on the

49:21 right hand side in the best places of fish there you see it on the right hand side of the homepage and for Macy's 4.5 million US fans and they're over 200 million friends opportunity to be in the news feed in both desktop amazing and mobile in the news feed the opportunity in the news feed this is gonna suck this is going to suck You're just gonna have nothing but Macy's and JC Penney's and 1-800-Flowers. 1-800-Flowers actually makes sense. That's a company that I think knows how to use an idiot platform like Facebook to their advantage four times a year. Mother's Day, Valentine's Day. But otherwise, who gives a crap? You got friends. You got 200 million friends. It's gotta be a lot of trannies in Brazil loving you.

50:22 They're not all Americans. Anyway, that's how it- so, uh, I like our starvation model better. In fact, send us rice and beans so we can lay out our banquet. You know, if somebody could get us some of that special rice out of Iran... We'll take it. I'll be definitely banqueting around that stuff. We'll take it. Oh boy. I told you my Iranian rice is delicious. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it made me sick. I have more from Lucifer. It just doesn't quit if you're interested. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I'll attend. I'm I'm in. Well, so Lucifer and this was why I was watching a lot of C-SPAN. Everyone's presenting their budgets and there's a lot of little ditties and do-ha hickeys in

CHAPTER 14 / 42 Discussion

Hillary Clinton Senate Testimony, Iran Nuclear Debate

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the Senate, stating that U.S. intelligence believes Iran has not yet decided to produce a nuclear weapon. She described an internal power struggle and "static" in intelligence reporting regarding the Iranian regime. While acknowledging Iran's right to peaceful nuclear power under the NPT, she noted that IAEA findings point toward weaponization.

hillary clinton· james clapper· david petraeus· iran· iaea· nuclear weapons

51:11 in these budgets and these are very long sessions. I think she did two, two and a half hour sessions. And so I know that with the amount she's traveling, she's got the 5 a.m. feeding for Huma Abedin's baby. And that's why she looks so haggard. She's tired. So I know she's going to slip up and say stupid stuff and say things that she really shouldn't be saying. And of course, like all Evil elite she's thinking and no one's watching this crap anyway, and honestly she's pretty much right. Yes She's totally right and said she so she can do this and so at the end of the day she can say hey I told I told you so I wasn't keeping anything from you, so let's listen first to her basically telling the truth about Iran and

51:53 not having any nuclear weapon or any plans for nuclear weapon. Quite astounding. Well, thank you Senator. Look, I know that last week... Okay, hold on. Stop, stop, stop. Stopping. This is going to be... I just did it. And I want to just change the topic just for a second. Yes, sure. I have a Hillary clip that I wanted to use to ridicule her. Good. Because ever since that you Caught me on the fact of the matter. I've been hearing it constantly other people the whole family goes. Oh there it is again Yeah, and I noticed it took me a while to get over it. I've now provided I've provided your family with more fun now. Do you stop scrabbling with the family and when you hear that and everyone just says oh! I'm gonna say the fact of the matter, I say the fact is

52:45 is which is just as bad and you could probably call me on that too but I noticed that when I called you on I do believe which is something that's always galloping when people say it you stopped doing it without any I couldn't catch you again no you stopped instantly this is because let me explain why for a second is because I have a father complex and when you know and you of course are my surrogate dad and when you say that I listen to you you and your do believe So anyway, so I still have an uh problem. I say uh, but nothing like Hillary. So I have a complete, I have a collection of Hillary stuff too from the same, this is the hearing before the Senate. From an edit. You did some work. I didn't do an edit. I just have it, there's so many uhs there's no reason to edit it. Although maybe I will now. But I have the ringer.

53:36 Okay, or they for the us and I'm gonna let you play your clip, but I've got the ringer out dude Are we gonna play your Hillary clip first? No you play your clip, and then we'll see if you need to play mine. Okay well Thank you senator look I I know that last week the Director of National Intelligence, former General Clapper, the Director of the CIA, former General Petraeus, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dempsey, plus Secretary Panetta, all testified in front of other committees here in the Senate that it is the conclusion of our Intelligence Committee that the Iranians have not yet made the decision to produce a nuclear weapon. Oh, wait a minute!

54:23 The Iranians have not yet made the decision. I thought that they were making a nuclear weapon. They're on their way. Any minute it was going to be ready to drop. Yeah, three days, 72 hours, they could have it ready to go. But she continues. Now. Now, the explanation that I think came from those very credible sources, Patriots All. Patriots All. So even though they're a-holes, you a-holes for blowing it, you're a patriot. Is that there's a continuing debate going on inside the Iranian regime and it's

54:58 An especially complicated debate. Oh, so there's a debate they're having like a debate about microphones in the room or what? She knows well, she's incredibly what she's Lucifer for anybody on the outside and I dare say some people who are on the inside to understand because there is a a lot of power struggle going on there are personality clashes, the Supreme Leader who is the head of the clerical presence institutionally within Iran, the Revolutionary Guard and the Quds Force, the Parliament and the President. There's a mess over there! They don't know what's going on. They can't make a decision. She's filibustering. She can't make a decision.

55:45 We just get a lot of static static. Wait a minute. I thought it was clear You had all the information the intelligence now Hillary. It's static in intelligence reporting and analysis from not just our own sources, but International sources. Oh, you mean the people who have a bone to pick so I think there is a debate There's no doubt they're pursuing nuclear power. Oh, they have well Wait a minute. There's no doubt they're pursuing nuclear power, which I guess is okay, right? They have a right under the NPT. Okay, that's the whole point. As a signatory to pursue peaceful, civil nuclear power. And there is no doubt that a lot of what has been discovered by the IAEA points in the direction of a nuclear weapons. No, no, no, no, not points in the direction. It was a fact. It was a fact, John. Am I nuts?

Hillary Clinton Speech Patterns, Father Complex Tangent

A brief aside examines the verbal tics of Hillary Clinton, specifically her frequent use of "uh" and "the fact of the matter." One host admits to having a "father complex" regarding the other's linguistic critiques, leading to a change in his own speaking habits. The segment contrasts Clinton's polished public persona with her repetitive phrasing during long Senate hearings.

CHAPTER 16 / 42 Discussion

Pakistan Fertilizer Restrictions, IED Strategy, Oklahoma City Comparison

Hillary Clinton discussed efforts to restrict fertilizer imports in Pakistan to combat the production of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). She claimed Pakistani officials were confused about how common farm fertilizer could be used for bombs, leading her to cite the Oklahoma City bombing as a reference. The discussion notes that the chemistry of ANFO (ammonium nitrate fuel oil) bombs has been common knowledge for decades.

pakistan· ammonium nitrate· ied· hillary clinton· oklahoma city bombing· anfo

56:41 Is she backpedaling on this whole thing? Well, she's testifying before the Senate, so she has to be honest. Well, let me ask you this. So I'm going to move on. So then we're going to talk about Pakistan. As we know, Pakistan is very important for the Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India pipeline, known as TAPI, the TAPI, which is the New Silk Road. Which is yeah, don't laugh a lot of silk from that all that I got a clip on that too. So Now she's gonna talk about Pakistan Pakistan if I am not mistaken They have technology to make nuclear weapons in fact I believe they have nuclear weapons and they dropped a couple of them and they so they know how to blow up a

57:29 nuclear devices right so that's right now it must be a plutonium bomb based on what we've understood earlier since it is North Korean technology well Lucifer Clinton is now going to tell us that Pakistan is so stupid that they don't even know the basics of bomb making so she's gonna tell you a story I'm gonna turn the ringer off by the way. Yeah, please just says it too often listen to the story So she's talking about Pakistan and this is about IEDs Improvised explosive devices and the question came for one of her Democratic buddies saying well What are we gonna do about all the IEDs which are killing our troops? Well, how about removing the troops from the general area of the IED that would be my suggestion but now well, we've got to get that pipeline built very important and

58:19 So listen to this. They have an implementation plan in the works. We've had several expert meetings with them on their national counter IED strategy that they approved in June 2011. They're working actually with their Afghan counterparts to improve coordination on the border. Okay, this is big. To restrict fertilizer imports.

58:58 We've had several productive meetings between the government of Pakistan, the government of Afghanistan and ISAF. Okay, so let me just review. The problem is that they need to be careful because fertilizer is being transported all over the country and of course fertilizer, which I've known since I was 10, Fertilizer can be used to create very rapid incinerary devices ie a bomb or an IED correct John well yeah if it generally speaking you want ammonium nitrate which is a fertilizer you don't want one of these no you don't want to compound stuff now you don't want poop

59:41 Right. Yeah, yeah, ammonium nitrate. In fact, when most of the, instead of using dynamite, most facilities that are trying to blow up a side of a hill to get to do some mining nowadays tend to use what's called an ANFO bomb, which is ammonium nitrate fuel oil. It's ammonium nitrate. pure ammonium nitrate which is available. Do you think that... And then you mix it with the heavy bunker crew the crappiest oil you can find or actually fuel oil it's like a kerosene and then you stuff it in a container like a pipe which would be like a pipe bomb and then you then you need the kicker because this thing what you can't light it or anything it's never even put a fuse on it's not gonna do anything you need a very expensive blasting cap

1:00:28 So you'd think that there would be, with the technology Pakistan has, they would know that fertilizer can be used to create a bomb? I would, everybody knows this. Over the past year. And so we're making progress. And I just have to say, Senator, that when I raised it directly with the very highest levels of the military and civilian governance in Pakistan, there was a lot of confusion. I mean, you know, they did not understand how fertilizer that they, many of them told me they use on their own farms, was such a problem.

1:01:11 The highest level of government and the army. What are you telling me Hillary? This can be used to make a bomb? I put that to grow my tomatoes. This is completely... Hillary! This cannot be correct! How is this possible? So I explained to them, you know, after the Oklahoma City bombing, we had to reach the same conclusion. Oh! We didn't know that until then either! Oh, okay. Really? How insulting is this? And we've got our government, John, the guys, you and I, and the people within the sound of our voices in the United States of Gibbon Nation listening, sitting there going, oh yeah. Yeah, that makes total sense. Never heard of such... never heard... what? A fertilizer and a bomb addict? How can that be? Yeah, man, I'm so glad we got that Oklahoma City thing, because otherwise we wouldn't have known you can do that. It's called chemistry. How stupid is that? The anfo bomb is so old it's not even funny. But I mean, that's just... that's an insult.

CHAPTER 17 / 42 Discussion

Syria Conflict, Bashar al-Assad, Foreign Intervention

Secretary Clinton addressed the situation in Syria, suggesting Bashar al-Assad could be classified as a war criminal. She acknowledged the presence of Al-Qaeda and Hamas among those claiming to support the Syrian opposition. The U.S. strategy involves providing humanitarian aid and supporting the opposition to facilitate a democratic transition similar to the process in Yemen.

syria· bashar al-assad· al-qaeda· hamas· bbc· humanitarian aid

1:02:08 And more insulting is that the panel of losers, which consists of Kerry and Lugar, are like, oh yeah, well we appreciate your service. You've done a great job, Lutheran. Very good. Alright, so is Assad a war criminal? Let's shift to Syria for a second. Is he a war criminal? Syria right quick. Do you believe that Assad should be viewed by the international community as a war criminal? I think that based on definitions of war criminal and crimes against humanity there would be an argument to be made that he would fit into that category. Yay! They do. Go ahead, just call people a war criminal. Wouldn't Bush and Cheney and Obama also fit into the category by her definition? Exactly. Actually, she is a war criminal. I'm gonna say it. I'm gonna say it. Okay, so...

1:03:02 We'll stay on Syria for a second. Here she misspeaks. This is actually from an interview. Let me see what this is. Yeah, this is an interview she did with the BBC and she messes up. See if you can catch the mess up here. She's tired remember and she's just ragged still have a very strong Opposition to foreign intervention from inside Syria from outside Syria We don't have the United Nations Security Council Approval legitimacy credibility that comes with the international community making a decision and

1:03:42 We have a very dangerous set of actors in the region, Al-Qaeda, Hamas, and those who are on our terrorist list to be sure, claiming to support the opposition. I'm sorry, claiming to be supporting? Oh yeah. Now come on, come on, that's blatantly obvious, that's a slip. To support, I mean claiming to support? Yeah, it is a slip. Not sure what it means. Well, because we are paying those people there along with French military who are now being caught in Homs.

1:04:24 Yeah, yeah, French, French military. It was a botch. It was a botch. Now, now, now, let's just listen to her laugh about people dying. This is always my favorite when she does this. This is my favorite part of Lucifer. As you try to play out every possible scenario, there are a lot of bad ones that we are trying to assess. while keeping our eye on the need to get humanitarian aid in to try to do everything we possibly can to support the Syrian opposition, to make it credible, to have it be both inside the country and outside the country. I mean, she's really just laying it out. It's like we're doing everything we can to make them credible, make them sound good, arm them, get everything rocking and rolling, because that belongs to me, bitches. Speaking on behalf of the Syrian people, inclusive, representative,

1:05:10 And, you know, we're trying to help push a democratic transition. It took more than a year in Yemen, but finally there was a new president inaugurated. People kept being killed. It finally took a while. People kept getting killed. I keep saying, hey, how many more people do I have to kill before you finally listen to what I have to say? All the time. So people getting killed. I hate you. So what is the reason that you think that so many liberal women in the United States are so enamored with this person? Power. Power. Power. I'd vote for Hillary if she ran. She ran?

CHAPTER 18 / 42 Discussion

Bureau of Energy Resources, African Trade Missions, China Competition

The State Department's newly constituted Energy Bureau is sending trade missions to Africa to promote American energy firms. Secretary Clinton emphasized the need for "sustainable development" of African resources, which is interpreted as a move to counter Chinese influence in the region. The U.S. is also utilizing drone bases in Djibouti to secure areas for these economic interests.

hillary clinton· johnny carson· africa· energy resources· china· sustainable development

1:05:57 If she ran, if Hillary ran, they'd vote for her for president. I thought you were making a play on words. I ran, she ran. I kind of liked it actually. And then so of course we have Somalia playing out and just to tie it all together for you as to how the State Department is actually managing all of these wars and so-called fights against terrorism to actually help American energy companies. So she presented her budget, $8.6 billion for all these Loser countries that we're sending our money to our taxpayer or printed money and it's in her budget and she's justifying this and the way it works is then we send over a delegation of This is the economic hitman It's the story then we send over a delegation of all of our gas and oil executives and we say here you go You're gonna take this eight point six billion dollars and you're not actually gonna get it cuz we're giving it to these guys who are gonna come in and gonna take your shit and we're gonna and we're gonna steal it and

1:07:00 That's how it works, and here's proof with a new agency that was just created. Our approach combines several different tools. First, trade missions to Africa. Trade missions, I'm sorry. It's called a trade mission. Assistant Secretary Johnny Carson just took a large delegation of American... Here's Johnny! energy firms to africa uh... to meet with government officials to meet with utility companies and businesses to talk about uh... how the products and expertise of american energy companies uh... could really enhance development uh... of the energy sector in the mean really it's rich johnny kane mission yet johnny carson where's the trading going to use it just to stay tickets fuel johnny carson is uh...

1:08:01 He used to be on the National Intelligence Council as national intelligence officer, and he is now part of the Bureau of Energy Resources in Africa Secondly we're doing a lot of other energy work through our newly constituted Energy Bureau because Energy Bureau Africa is so blessed with energy resources. I tell you it's so blessed We're gonna take it all that are either not developed or underdeveloped and stupid spear chuckers don't know how to do it Hillary just say it we know how to do it it's not not not developed they don't know how to do it we know how to do that our companies know how to do that and underutilized or being developed in ways that are not good for sustainable development yeah what what did she just say

1:08:50 In other words, they're not good for us. Listen to that again. That's hilarious. Sustainable developments. Wait, hold on. I gotta back that up. That's so funny. That's one of the best ones she's done yet. or being developed in ways that are not good for sustainable development. So, you know, we are interacting... It means the Chinese will be getting the oil, not us. ...at the highest levels of government to try to work on that. So the... So wait a minute, let me get this straight. All these years have gone by and the Chinese have been sneaking in and out of Africa, taking over the place. Yeah. And just now, what this really tells me is that we're so far behind

1:09:32 Because, you know, the oil's been in Africa here and there. It's always been there. It's nothing new. We've done a lot of deals there. And it's been very sustainable. But all of a sudden, things have changed. She does, I guess, in this whole thing, I don't recall her mentioning, I watch this too, mentioning China. As somebody going into Africa stealing everything. And so this is really about China. Yes. Getting them out, the Chiners. So we gotta send our hitmen in there saying, look, you guys have been doing these deals with the Chinese and they've been screwing you if you haven't noticed. It's a little worse than that, John. We open up a drone base in Djibouti and we just drone everyone who, you know, in particular al-Shabaab, the guys who are trying to protect their sovereign country. And like, oh, now you're a terrorist, you Shabaabite. I'm going to drone you. Get out of our way because we got a trade mission coming through here. The manager

Balochistan Pipeline Attacks, Jundallah Terrorist Group, Rawalpindi

Three gas pipelines were blown up in Balochistan, an area critical to the competing IP (Iran-Pakistan) and TAPI (Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India) pipeline projects. The terrorist group Jundallah, which reportedly receives some U.S. support against Iran, claimed responsibility for an execution-style attack on a bus in the region. The victims were identified as pipeline workers, highlighting the violent struggle over energy transit routes.

balochistan· jundallah· pakistan· iran· tapi pipeline· rawalpindi

1:10:29 of the Energy Bureau, one of Lucifer's flying monkeys, is a guy named Carlos Pasqual. Ring a bell? It does ring a bell. He was the first victim of the WikiLeaks diplomatic cables, because he was the guy that criticized the Mexican military's ability and willingness to fight the drug cartels. So, poop, he gets hired to run this outfit. Guy's a total shill. So it's just horrible. Well, you know, it's just like there's must be there's just so much money in this part of the economy. It's ridiculous. I don't even know why we're doing this show. We should just start a little energy company. Yeah. A little consulting company. Yeah. We'd be making crap loads of money because it's just free money. Tons of it. So I was right about Balochistan. Oh yeah. Remember I said keep your eye on Balochistan. So what happens? Three gas pipelines were blown up.

1:11:33 In the Perco area of Dharabukhti on Saturday, disrupting gas supply to purification plants. Now, for those of you new to the program, there's a competing pipeline. There is the IP known as the peace line, which is supposed to go from Iran down south there into Pakistan through the Balochistan area and then into India. And that has been basically barred by Lucifer. And this of course started off when George Bush and Dick Cheney and Halliburton, they wanted the TAPI pipeline, which is Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, the northern part of Pakistan, into India.

1:12:19 And so now all of a sudden we have a new terrorist group, John. The Jundala. Oh, this is a new one. Yeah, that's how it works. The Jundala, J-U-N-D-A-L-L-A-H. The Jundala, who are based in Balochistan. It's crazy. Who would have thought? Coincidence. And they just killed 18 people execution style on a bus. the Jundala, the bunch of evil, evil terrorists. So you watch now and already this Dana Rohrabacher from 46th district of California, congressman, he put in his, he wanted a resolution that, well, you know, we have to protect the Balochistani people. In other words, we've got to block the Iranian pipeline

1:13:12 You know that's an eight billion dollar project the tappy pipeline is the eight billion dollar project This is what this group. I'm familiar with this group. This is yeah, it's it's suspect. Did you play? With him how do you know Dala you know it means soldiers of God also knows the people's resistance movement of Iran uh-huh uh-huh Not to be confused with the people's Mujahideen of Iran. This is a this is a counter-revolutionary group That's been in and out of Iran. Yeah to screw over the Iranian somehow and like to block their pipeline Thank you, and so now they move now It's like the organization is now based in Balochistan claims to be fighting for the rights of Sunni Muslims in Iran Which is this is a front organization for someone I wonder who?

1:13:59 I'm telling you, it's Lucifer's flying monkeys. The problem is it's been designated a terrorist organization by the United States and Iran. How does that work? Both Iran and the... So I think that our... And if I'm not mistaken, I've heard reports of these guys being slightly upset by being called a terrorist organization by us. You think? Yeah, yeah. But I think it's good that we can... So literally... Some sources, like the Daily Telegraph, Seymour Hersh, have reported that the Jundala have received support from the United States against the government of Iran, although the US denies any involvement. So here's what they want to do. They want to set up a base

1:14:42 Balochistan to fight the evil Joondala terrorists. You can you can just count on it. This is what's happening right now The resolutions are getting written up because we have to block the pipeline. How do you block the pipeline? Well, we can't count on those Joondala dudes and we can count on them as a patsy though. They're terrorists Oh, they just killed 18 people on the bus. We need a base. Yeah, we should set up a base there. So that's now all in negotiation. Let's go look back at that 18 people on a bus story. I can, I have it right here. Where is it? US backed Jundala terrorist group claims Pakistan bus attack. Somewhat skewed the reporting. At least 18 people were killed execution style on Tuesday. What are these guys doing in Pakistan? Well, let's see. The bus carrying passengers from Rawalpindi

1:15:35 to the northern town of Gilgit came under attack in the mountainous regions of Khoistan. I'll bet you if we Google this word Rawalpindi that that's where the pipeline is. That's how easy it's become now. Let's see, Rawalpindi pipeline. This is all I... I just do John C. Dvorak pipeline. That's all I have to do. There's one running through my house. There you go. Pipeline jobs in Rawalpindi. There you go. These were pipeline workers, John. Pipeline equipments in Rawalpindi. Just Google Rawalpindi. How do you spell that? Romeo, Alpha, Whiskey, Alpha, Lima, Papa, India, November, Delta, India. I'm gonna take off the word pipeline and see what I get. We got some tourism. Add pipeline.

1:16:31 But Raul Appendi. Yeah, I got a pipeline on there. Pipeline equipment and Raul Appendi. It's in the yellow pages of Pakistan, Punjab. This is... This is the pipeline. Yeah, it's a pipeline. They went and killed a bunch of pipeline workers. Exactly. This is unbelievable. This is ridiculous. We need more money. Yeah, we do. Come on man, it's just unbelievable. So now, you know, now you can... So this is the news coverage we're getting, no one is just making the simple combination of A plus B. Google, Google. Raul P. and D. Pipeline, how hard can it be? Well they never think that Google Pipeline, because no one's onto the pipeline scam.

CHAPTER 20 / 42 Discussion

Afghanistan War Strategy, Jay Carney, TAPI Pipeline

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney referred to the war in Afghanistan as the "original war" that was neglected during the focus on Iraq. The underlying strategy in Afghanistan is identified as securing the TAPI pipeline route for companies like Unocal (now Chevron). This energy-centric view of the conflict suggests that regional stability is secondary to the transit of Turkmenistan gas.

jay carney· afghanistan· iraq· tapi pipeline· unocal· chevron

1:17:15 Well, so this is by the way, you know, they would be unical before the whole before 9 11. There was all you know, there's a big belief that unical is you're trying to get some pipeline through Pakistan and that's the tappy pipeline. That's the tappy pipeline. That is the unical pipeline that you that unical now Chevron was wanted to put in and that's why 9 11 was used to go into Afghanistan and right and and and Iraq to block Iraq. In fact, And I think in fact I can say, it's different from the fact of the matter is, in fact, if we listen to spokeshole Carney,

1:17:53 from this past week listen to what he says about the iraq war this you mentioned that the troops are coming home that transition is going to happen through 2014 so obviously there's still a significant period of time between now and then does the white house worry about diminishing public support for the war given events like this is the question the last one irrelevant i think the president made clear when he was a candidate for this office and has made clear since he took this office that unfortunately prior to his taking office Because of the focus on Iraq and the US efforts there that the original war if you will What the original war if you will? Referring to Afghanistan no Iraq the original war no that's not what he no yes That's what he said I thought he was gonna now for he was gonna say the original war if you were the one in Afghanistan was gonna be his next sentence no listen there that the original war if you will

1:18:55 in Afghanistan had been... I'm sorry, you're right. You're right, I'm sorry. I mistook it. So what was the original war here, Carney? Let's just get the answer. What was the original war? In Afghanistan had been neglected, that the strategy there was unclear. Yeah, the strategy was very clear, dude. It was to get the Turkmenistan gas through Afghanistan to Pakistan to India. That's what it's always been about. That's why we've got the puppet Karzai, That's why we're blocking everything in Balochistan. And that's why... And there's some poppy cultivation while we're at it. Wow. So the poppies, the United Nations just came out. Warning, warning, warning, warning. Opium production set to rise according to the International Narcotics Board. Check this out. How does that work? It's worse. According to the International Narcotic Board's figures,

CHAPTER 21 / 42 Discussion

Tajikistan Military Aid, Operation Flashpoint, Hydrocarbon Complex

President Obama requested increased military financing for Tajikistan as U.S. Transportation Command officials visited the country. This military interest coincides with Iranian plans to build an industrial city in Tajikistan. The video game "Operation Flashpoint: Red River" is cited as a tool for familiarizing the American public with military intervention in Tajikistan under the guise of fighting terrorism.

tajikistan· ustranscom· operation flashpoint· marines· hydrocarbons· iran

1:19:49 Production is now reaching industrial scale. I mean, can you believe this crap? Wow. Industrial. Industrial scale? An industrial scale. In the show notes, 387.nashownotes.com. Industrial scale. But I think, John, that this is, this setup is going on, it's been going on for a long time. Remember I talked about Tajikistan? Yes, okay, so you know get your maps people you know where Tajikistan is yeah, it's up right in the middle of all that crap Yeah, what's in Tajikistan? Probably natural gas or something like that submitted to US Congress February 13th under the foreign military financing program President Obama requesting more money for Tajikistan. Oh my goodness really we need more money for Tajikistan. Oh the new us strands calm commander

1:20:45 On February 13th, same day, General William M. Fraser III, commander of U.S. Transportation Command, USTRANSCOM, made his first visit to Tajikistan. Really? I wonder what's going on in Tajikistan. Oh, I see. Iran plans to build an industrial city with 50 companies in Tajikistan. Oh, well we can't have that. But we've trained our children. You see, we've trained our children for two years. We've trained them to get ready for Tajikistan with Operation Flashpoint Red River. This is the game, I'm gonna play you a little bit of the trailer, where we're going into Tajikistan, not to block the Iranians from building an industrial city with 50 companies to take natural gas, no, to go fight terrorists.

1:21:45 Yeah. So this is how it works. We train our kids early on. What game was that? That was uh... That's Operation Flashpoint Red River Entry into Tajikistan is the name of the game. Oh, I thought there was, I thought it was part of a game series. Could be. I'm not a gamer. So you get your kids ready. They're familiar with the landscape. They know first of all the name, Tajikistan. Oh yeah, Tajikistan. Yeah, a bunch of terrorists over there, man. But the Marines are ready. The big Marines logo flying by.

1:22:45 So now you're ready, son. We're gonna go fight some terrorists. It's better than giving him a real education in a high school. Yeah, but let's go fight some terrorists in Tajikistan, son. Yeah, terrorists. You're fighting Iranians. Iranians and Russians. It makes me sick. Oh, the Russians. If the Russians don't want that to go on, they're going to put a stop to some of this. Well, the Russians... I mean, I think that's... I still am trying to associate the deal that Putin himself did with ExxonMobil. Because there's got to be something to do with Tajikistan or something. Well, so please don't forget or let's say please remember this is not about countries. This is about oil companies. It's competing companies. Except whoever's the boss of me gets to use the military. And this is what Eisenhower was really warning us about, I think, John, when he talked about the military industrial complex. It was really the military industrial hypo carbon complex.

CHAPTER 22 / 42 Discussion

Peak Oil Theory, Global Energy Corporations, Greek Asset Sales

The "Peak Oil" narrative is characterized as a manufactured illusion of scarcity designed to maintain high energy prices despite abundant resources in places like North Dakota. Global energy competition is viewed as a battle between corporations like Gazprom and Chevron rather than sovereign nations. In Greece, the government is selling off its natural gas grid (DEPA and DESFA) to raise 19 billion euros, attracting interest from international bidders.

peak oil· gazprom· chevron· greece· israel· hydrocarbons

1:23:45 That's the danger because this is all of this every single thing North Korea Syria Tajikistan Balochistan Pakistan Libya Egypt it's all about hydrocarbons which sounds like water, but it's not it's gas and oil But everyone says hydrocarbon. Oh must be water power. You know how stupid we are So do you what choice do we have in the matter you have Russia? with all its oligarchs and those guys want to make as much money as we make. You have China who would love to build a factory system that uses cheap energy so they want all the energy they can get so they're sneaking around grabbing what they can. And then you have us trying to protect our interests and everybody's playing dirty. What would you propose? Energy bars.

1:24:45 You know, so there is no answer other than exposing this to people and hoping that some people will catch on and you know we can... I think knowledge is a good thing but I just don't see this whole thing being derailed and I still believe and I think it's part of our general thesis about all this crap. that we want to make sure that we do have enough I believe they'll go so well we only got so we used you know where we only have two percent of the energy resources and we use 90% of the product or whatever people always mow Democrats are always complaining about this right

1:25:21 But there's a lot of untapped resources like the entire state of North Dakota has got the biggest oil field. No, but you're missing the point. We have all this product that we can tap. I think you're missing the point. But we don't want to. This is not about we need natural gas. We got our natural gas. This is about Big companies run by the Bush Clinton cabal who are gonna sell it to India We're gonna sell it to the Chinas. It's about money and power. This has nothing to do with the stupid All we are is dumb. No. No, I'm just saying and fodder. I do Think that one of the things that we're doing is trying to drain the world's resources So we we'd be the last man standing. I know just no no no underneath at all Let me do let me I've come up with a new theory. I

1:26:08 When you do you know here's what I think you know why we started all this peak oil bullcrap. You know why? Because we weren't running out of oil. We were running into too much of it. And so we had to create this illusion of scarcity of resources to keep the prices up. There is no real evidence that we're running out of oil. We're striking oil and gas left and right. That is actually more ludicrous now than ever. But if they're finding oil and gas in Tajikistan, which was during the Soviet Union era, the poorest. It was the Yemen of the Soviet Socialist Republic of the USSR. It was the Yemen, it was the poorest. But now there's a bunch of oil and other resources there. Apparently, you can, there's probably some under my house. Yes! Yeah!

1:27:02 That's what I think took place. I think that we actually, oh my goodness, we've got to do something about it. Let's make up this peak oil thing and let's create some, oh, the world is dying thing. And then that'll give us cover to go and say, oh, we're protecting our natural resources. Bull crap. It's just big companies and they're out of control. It's like New Gingrich, you know, who is completely insane. You know, these people are insane. All they can do is have sex, drink, do drugs, and kill people. As long as they don't have to do the killing themselves. They're just insane. Now here's what's even crazier, just to prove my point. Senior executives from Gazprom have been in Israel the past few days trying to do a deal with the Israelis. It's not about countries. It's about companies.

1:28:00 It's Gazprom versus Chevron. Well that would make sense in the bigger picture where you're trying to eliminate countries because they're a problem. Correct. So you want to create a one world government or push toward that because then the corporation can actually take over. Voila. So all the internationalists, all these guys, the UN type people, they want to take away our sovereignty. would be these large corporations above all. Yes. And Greece has now finally put their DEPA, the natural gas grid and the natural gas company and DESFA on the block. They plan to raise 19 billion for the combined sale of the asset. So all eyes are now on

1:28:55 this And it and I think that it's gonna have to be a co-deal somehow That's probably why Gazprom is in Israel and they're gonna go in it together, you know at the end of the day They don't mind killing a few stupid people, but you know, they both they all want to make money So they'll go have these if they have to so we'll see who winds up buying that we'll see. I But that's not now the prices are known and now the bidding's in and we'll see We'll see you actually comes out on top, but the whole thing it's uh, where the money is Yeah, it's yeah, it's totally just a couple of guys with a bb gun Did you shoot that sparrow adam No, I winged it Meanwhile, we just get drones. We've got all the gas and they're all here have a drone

TVNZ Advertising Restrictions, Dutch Email Lottery Scam

Reporters at New Zealand's TVNZ were reportedly instructed not to produce content that would offend advertisers, highlighting the conflict between commercial interests and journalism. Separately, a fraudulent "Uni Lotto" email scam originating from the Netherlands claims to pick winners randomly by email address. The scam promises payouts of 750,000 euros to lure victims into providing personal information.

1:29:50 And get your kids used to it with this nice toy drone. How cool is it? I've never seen so many drone YouTube videos in my life. We got got a bunch of training people to be drone operators. There's nothing else to do in the future. Well, at least I have a chance a shot at a job because I have a license so I can I can do that. I'd much rather do this. I mean, it's a lot more fun, actually. It could get depressing. Yeah, it actually could. You're right. I'm gonna show my support by donating to no agenda. Imagine all the people who could do that. Oh, yeah, that'd be fab Before you get started John there was someone pointed this out to me in the New Zealand Herald News There's a very popular, you know, they have a public television down there which I'm sure is just as awesome as ours is and

1:30:50 But in this case is probably more public. However, they do just like Gitmo Nation Lowlands, I do run commercials. So they have a long-running consumer affairs show called Fair Go. Okay? And so this is kind of like, you know, you know how like Top Gear works where they really kind of, I guess it seems like they're pretty fair about the reviews. So reporters and staff At TVNZ's long-running consumer affair show, Fairgo, were recently instructed not to produce items that would offend advertisers. Ooh, nice. This is the entire reason why we could- why we cannot do this program commercially. It is- Brought to you by Chevron. Well, if we did that- We'd be making more money. That's the final- you may be-

1:31:42 Maybe we just give up on it. I did get she got call Chevron up and say look we're tired of Bashing you guys I'm sure Bobby Ray can point me in the right direction if I ask her he could now I could also give up because I just got a letter this morning From the Netherlands not to mention the Netherlands.

The Uni Lotto satellite software email lottery in which email addresses are picked randomly. My goodness, this is outrageously cool.

1:32:24 Now, so it's, you know, most people when they do a lottery like in the United States, you know, they, it's essentially a ripoff. The payouts are one half of what they'd be in Vegas. But you have to buy, you have to actually give them money. You have to buy a ticket. But apparently, this is why the economy of these countries isn't working out. They just randomly pull somebody's email address out and then damn near a billion euros. That is John I'm saying hookers and blow and we're moving in with you. Almost a million euros. That's cool that's a cool million bucks right there. Yeah yeah so I'm gonna be following up on that. Yeah make sure you go to the internet department of money and make sure you get there.

Listener Donations, Relationship Karma, Swine Flu Minute

Ivo Welton from the Netherlands and Philip Welch from Nashville provided donations, with Welch requesting "relationship karma" after a recent breakup. The segment includes birthday shout-outs and a mention of the "Swine Flu Minute," a recurring feature on the show.

South by Southwest, Portland Relocation, Podcast Licenses

Molly Wood is scheduled to visit Austin for the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival. Donors from Egg Harbor, New Jersey, and Columbus, Ohio, contributed to the show, with some signing up for podcast licenses. One listener noted that the show is a preferable alternative to Alex Jones due to the lack of commercials and focus on food and wine tips.

PayPal Account Issues, Wisconsin Donors, Order of Knighthood

A donor from Murphys, California, returned to the show after PayPal limited his account, which had interrupted his subscription. Several donors from Wisconsin were recognized, with the host receiving "karma" for correctly pronouncing Wisconsin city names. The "Order of Knighthood" remains a primary way for high-level donors to be recognized for their financial support.

I think karma. Back February 2, 11, I mailed in a donation, asked for some karma for a new human resource in my small business. The business, when I sent the donation, I hadn't had an order in three weeks. The day I mailed my donation, orders started piling up. I had about five times more business than I expected over the summer. Awesome. Little human resource number three, my awesome MILF wife had no major issues during pregnancy and in August she gave birth to a healthy, happy Maximus. Excellent. Maximus. So with this donation, I'd like to send out a huge shot of shut up slave karma to my BFF Justin Corrizza and a MILF call. So he needs a MILF

1:44:20 I think so. Jason Hoffman, yeah, it's Sir Hoffman to you. Well, it's not on here as a Sir Hoffman. Well, that's Buzzkill Jr. disgracing the order of the knighthood. The knighthood is a hell of a present to have. Please de-douche him and as I call him out in episode 370, please give a huge karma shout out to the entire Hoffman clan and a karma shot to Dvorak for consistently pronouncing the various cities in Wisconsin correctly the first time when he mentions the donors from the Dairyland. So he needs a... D-Douche and Karma double shot. Yeah. You've been D-Douche'd. You've got Karma. And he says the drone operators are pansies.

Job Interview Success, Speedy Recovery Karma, Value for Value

Jeffrey Anderson from Philadelphia reported getting a job while his donation was still in transit, crediting "No Agenda karma." A special request for "speedy recovery karma" was made for Bryce, a 14-year-old fan suffering from a brain injury. The hosts reiterate that the value-for-value model is the only way they can remain independent and provide deep-dive analysis.

Newt Gingrich, Countdown to the Looking Glass, 1984 Movie

Newt Gingrich appeared as an actor in the 1984 HBO movie "Countdown to the Looking Glass," playing himself in a fictional crisis. In the film, he uses the same rhetorical techniques and arguments about the Straits of Hormuz that he employs in 2012 political debates. The only significant difference is the substitution of the Soviet Union for Iran as the primary antagonist.

1:49:40 And no knighthoods that just goes to show that we're light Light on the night. Come on knights. Hey, I got an ask John thing here for you. Um, I'm Okay. Yeah. Thanks love You were talking the other day about Newt Gingrich and I think we both agree that the guy is phenomenally good at saying things like you're asking the wrong question and It's great at it. To watch Gingrich at these debates is like watching a master. And I put a link in the show notes, 387.nashownotes.com, which you really should read this. It's a

1:50:29 Where is it here? It's a rundown of just how insane this guy really is. I mean, Newt Gingrich is absolutely insane. If you see all the tricks and the things and, you know, every wife gets sick, he leaves him. The guy is a total a-hole. I mean, really. But he's a talker! And he does it so well and so slickly. And I'm going to play you a clip. And I want you to tell me where this clip is from. Okay? It's of Newt Gingrich in an interview. You ready? And I want you to tell me, because he does it again. It's him just like you saw him last night. We're going to go live to Washington and Congressman Newt Gingrich and Senator Eugene McCarthy. Congressman Gingrich, is there anything

1:51:16 That's worth blowing away the world, worth the risk of a nuclear confrontation that could be set off by the convergence of these two great naval task forces out there in the Middle East. Don, tragically you've asked the right question. There is no thing worth nuclear war. But Winston Churchill said it brilliantly when he said that war is horrible, slavery is worse. If we stand by and allow the Soviet Union in international waters to block the United States from acting on behalf of our friends and allies with our friends and allies. If we stand by and allow a Soviet backed puppet state in Oman to block the Straits of Hormuz and strangle both Japan, the second largest economy in the world and Western Europe, then freedom will die. All right. So that sounds like he just said it last night.

1:52:17 Of course some of the players were different. So this is from some years ago I assume. 1981, the movie Countdown to the Looking Glass. He is an actor in this and this movie is a link to it. It's, I'm sorry, 84. There's a link to it on Google Video. You can watch the whole thing. It basically was playing out right now except the bad guy is Iran and not Russia. And Newt Gingrich is saying the exact same things he says today, just replace Russia with Iran. It's hilarious. Isn't it? That's a good catch. Who sent you that one? Did that come through the network? Producer Art Larson got that and he sent that to me. And I was just like, wow. And he's in it a couple of times. With dark hair. He's a brunette. Yeah, it's not as presidential. Black hair is good. The guy is insane, I'm telling you. He's absolutely insane.

Don Lemon Field Reporting, CNN Career Trajectory

CNN's Don Lemon is frequently being sent into the field for disaster and celebrity death coverage, which is interpreted as a potential demotion or shift in his career. His reporting on the Whitney Houston funeral and recent tornadoes is described as overly emotional and "leeching" off the tragedies of others. The hosts suggest that once a studio anchor is sent on location frequently, they rarely return to their previous status.

don lemon· cnn· whitney houston· tornado coverage· journalism

1:53:21 He is a liar, a cheat. Like Romney's not, or Santorum. They're all insane. I can't even watch this race anymore. It just makes me want to throw up. Well, it's too repetitive. Yeah, that's why it's boring. Oh, well thank God we killed Andrew Breitbart. Oh, we got something to talk about. I mean, it's very repetitive. I was getting pretty bored of the whole tornado thing. They got sold out O'Brien on the ground. They got Don Lemon on the ground. By the way, Don Lemon, you'll never see him back in the studio again. He made a big mistake going on location for the Whitney Houston stuff. Just as a I'm telling you how exited to stand up. He was doing it while he was doing the stand ups for for Whitney Houston. And now I know exactly how this goes. You know, he's great.

1:54:08 Yeah, that's fantastic. Don, you gotta stay on the road. So he's there like, here's this guy and here's all this stuff in his pickup truck and it's devastating and oh wait, here's someone who's gonna cry. Hold on a second. It's okay, you can cry. You don't cry on my shoulder. I'm Don Lemon. It's disgusting. Just leeching off. We're gonna come back to you three times this hour, Don Lemon. Yeah, because I'm gonna show you more shit that's broken. People's lives destroyed. I'm Don Lemon. I'm Don Lemon. Yeah, you might be right. They may be pushing him out into the field. He's in the field. I've seen this happen before. It happens. So the thing big news this week, of course, is the little town and you might want to play it the Cherin, whatever the name of this town is, near Cleveland as it's introduced by the ABC Stooges.

School Lockdowns, Chardon Shooting, Autocorrect Gunman Scare

Following a school shooting in Chardon, Ohio, schools across the country are on high alert, leading to several false alarms. In Livermore, California, a middle school was locked down for two hours after a parent mistakenly reported seeing a man with a rifle. In Georgia, a technical college went into lockdown after a student's text message about "West Hall" was autocorrected to "gunman."

1:54:57 From ABC News, this is ABC World News with Diane Sawyer. Good evening tonight we add another name to that searing list that begins with Columbine and Virginia Tech. It is the small town of Chardon, Ohio. 5,000 people who live right outside Cleveland known for their serenity and maple syrup until today. I'm Dan Sawyer, I'm hammered. Here's the maple syrup. It's serenity. Are you kidding me?

1:55:33 Was that something are you kidding me? So they have this shooting now everywhere you look of course these schools are just factories or crap They're lousy we talked about this. They practice lockdowns apparently so now there's lockdowns left and right so play this one This is the local when we had our local version plagues the one at the bottom school shut down over imaginary gunmen Oh, yeah, I heard about this to the East Bay now police locked down East Avenue Middle School in Livermore for more than two hours after a parent reported seeing a man with a gun on campus. ABC 7's John Alston got a first-hand account from that mother and he joins us now live from Livermore. John. Carol, this was a rough day for more than two dozen students and faculty, especially coming so soon after the fatal school shooting in Ohio. Students here were scared but unhurt and tonight there is still no sign of the man with a rifle.

1:56:23 The all-clear came shortly before 7 p.m. when students were allowed to finally leave their locked classroom after more than two frightening hours. Very scary actually, a lot of pressure. And that's, you know, she's just having a hard time right now. Yeah. Just before 430, she was with her mother who first reported seeing a man in the hallway wearing jeans, a hoodie and a black beanie and carrying a rifle under his arm. It was a long one. I don't know much about weapons, but I could just say it was long. It was like a rifle, like, I don't know what kind of weapon it was, but I saw it. Oh, stop. Long gun.

1:57:01 We know that's code. It was a long one. Long gun, remember that's the code for AR-15s or their assault weapons. Maybe. Whatever the case was, this woman was imagining this whole thing. And because they showed the over... They brought in police from everywhere. The whole town was locked down and there was nobody ever to be found. And so this is just like somebody imagining something and then getting completely out of control, scaring the crap out of the kids. And then the more interesting one, which I don't have a clip for, which also took place in, I guess this was in North Georgia, in Gainesville, Georgia. The Gainesville Time reports that a student at Lanier Technical College sent a text message which was supposed to say, gonna be at the West Hall this afternoon. And the autocorrect changed the name Gunman.

1:57:49 Yeah, gunmen at the West Hall this afternoon all hell breaks loose. Shut down, we're going to lockdown. Lockdown, they went to lockdown. This is ridiculous. Yeah, we're so jumpy. I mean it's there's nothing going on that one crazy kid shoots a couple of kids Which is if you just go by the just statistics is actually the number of kids that are shot in schools is probably lower than it should be Lower than it should it should be higher John C. Devorah John C. Devorah This is wrong. There should be more kids shot in school by statistics

Extra TV Show Changes, Oscar Sound Awards, French Winners

The entertainment news program "Extra" has changed its iconic intro and tone, becoming more like a "lame version of Entertainment Tonight." During the Academy Awards, the distinction between "sound editing" and "sound mixing" was criticized as unnecessary for the television broadcast. Observations were made regarding French winners, such as Jean Dujardin, who reportedly lacked the traditional humility of American nominees.

1:58:30 Uh-huh. That was funny. I like that. I like that. That was good. Just by statistics, it should be more. I have nothing to say about this. Yeah, it sucks. Whatever. It sucks. I'm sorry. It sucks. So, yeah, it does suck. So, changing the topic, I'm very disappointed in what's happened to the show Extra. Oh, no. No, really. And now, back to real news. And so they've dropped the extra, extra person screaming. They do show it, play it once in a while very low. They don't have that long lead in, you know that jet engine starting up. Yeah, I like that. That really got me going. Yeah. Extra, extra, extra, extra. Gone.

They totally broke it.

2:00:15 It used to be pretty exciting. You could, I mean it was very compelling. You could actually get through the whole thing. Yeah, you get into it. It's just a bunch of like, it's like a lame version of Entertainment Tonight or whatever. It's not the old, you know, it was nasty, it was loud, it had extra, extra, extra constantly being thrown in your face, it had flashing lights. Now it's boring. What happened? Suits. Yeah, suits. They always come in and mess it up, don't they? Yep. Yeah. I'll say the Oscars were pretty good though. It was a good show. I found it to be very slow moving. I didn't care for it. You know what I like this now. What's the deal with hey? Let's give it right at the beginning You know at the beginning of they give these lame awards out and then the guys get to talk forever then at the end They can't talk when they give good awards out But why they give a sound editing and then you know like Hugo on sound Editing and same guy some sound geek goes up again, then the next award was sound mixing. Yeah, what is the difference? Well, there's a difference

2:01:14 Well then why don't you take it off stage, do it someplace else. We don't really want to see the sound editor. I thought it was kind of interesting that you know whenever an American wins an award they get up there they thank their fellow nominees and the French guys go, hey I'm great, fuck you. Exactly. They don't thank anybody. No they don't thank anybody. You're standing there and you just beat out like some of the best actors in the business. I'm not going to acknowledge you, I'm French. Thanks for the... thanks for the award. Bye! Speaking of some good acting, I'm sure you've seen the Gordon Gekko acting gig. We need to get one of these. Michael Douglas. Yeah? He's uh... well the FBI has hired him for an infomercial. Oh, I didn't know that! That greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right.

Michael Douglas FBI Ad, Death of Broadcasting, House Ads

Actor Michael Douglas filmed a public service announcement for the FBI regarding securities fraud and insider trading, reprising his Gordon Gekko persona. Meanwhile, local television stations like KSPW are running "house ads" for their own programming due to a lack of commercial advertisers. This trend is cited as evidence of the "death of broadcasting" as traditional revenue models fail.

2:02:08 Is this the FBI in Mexico? No, shh, listen. Hello, I'm Michael Douglas. In the movie Wall Street, I play Gordon Gekko, a greedy corporate executive who cheated the profits while innocent investors lost their savings. The movie was fiction, but the problem is real. Our economy is increasingly dependent on the success and integrity of the financial markets. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is. For more information on how you can help identify securities fraud, or to report insider trading, contact your local FBI office. Or, submit a tip online at www.fbi.gov. Thank you. Hey listen, if you got an insider trading, call me. Don't be giving no tips to the FBI. No, I've gone online to the FBI sites where they put stuff in there. It's a joke.

2:03:05 I don't doubt if they ever look at it. Unless you have a contact in the FBI, I really seriously doubt any of this stuff they pay attention to. They just think everyone's a crackpot. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. If you got a serious tip for insider trading, call me. I'll call John. Yeah, and then we'll get some money out of this thing. Yeah, finally. So there was... Well, go ahead. Go ahead. Well, I got another clip here that I want to play because I forgot what it is. But it's the death of broadcasting. You just want to play it so you can remember what it is. All right. Two candidates in the race are making a... Local stories that affect where you live, reaching a milestone... Okay, here it is. So, the local station in the Salina station, that's ABC, between

2:03:49 one show and another, they got no advertising. You can play this whole clip and you can see what we're dealing with. They've got no advertising so they run nothing but house ads. And I'm wondering... What's a house ad? Explain to everybody what a house ad is. A house ad is like if we had advertising on this show, a house ad would be, hey by the way next Thursday we're gonna have a special guest on the next No Agenda. So tune in to the next No Agenda. So it's something, it's more like this. Hey, you're listening to the NOAJENDER show. Don't forget to always listen to Lee Brown's Dirty Boxers on the NOAJENDER stream in the morning, everybody. Yeah, that would be it too. You can either publicize the network, you publicize yourself, or you publicize something else on the network. Right. And it's a house ad. There's no income to be derived from these. So this is like what this poor station is playing. Just play the death of broadcasting in its entirety and hear one house ad after another. It's pathetic.

2:04:41 Two candidates in the race are making a... Local stories that affect where you live. Reaching a milestone tonight. Your complete local forecast. Fog moving down the coast. The latest in Central Coast sports. Palm High taking on Salinas. KSPW Action News 8. The most watched news team on the Central Coast. It's coverage you can count on. Get to know the all-new Central Coast ABC. Weekdays at 7 a.m., watch Good Morning America with Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos. Then, get real with America's favorite doctor. Watch Dr. Phil at 9 a.m. on Central Coast ABC. And don't miss the morning chat fest with all the ladies from The View at 10 a.m. Plus, make an appointment. The Doctors are in at 11 a.m. on Central Coast ABC. Your new home for ABC on the Central Coast. Yeah, I got it.

2:05:28 It goes on and on. There's about seven of them. And the question in my mind is always, why don't you put some content? You got no nothing going on. Put a no agenda shot in there or something. Put some content or put a little tip or something that people can use instead of one. Some insider trading tips. But that's the death of broadcasting. You've witnessed it. That was it right there. So there's more and I'm connecting these dots with the Penn State pedo bear. You know, of course this has now died off, fallen off the radar. About the second mile and all the elites getting kids to hump Sandusky and all these guys, a bunch of pedophiles in Pennsylvania. And I'm glad I caught this little ditty because you're not going to hear about it for much longer on the real news.

Catholic Church Abuse Memo, Cardinal Bevilacqua, Redwood City Scandal

A confidential memo suggests the late Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua ordered the destruction of evidence regarding 35 priests accused of sexual abuse. In California, six employees at Roosevelt Elementary School face disciplinary action for failing to report the abuse of an autistic student. Media coverage of these scandals is criticized for being vague about the specific nature of the abuse.

cardinal bevilacqua· philadelphia· catholic church· penn state· redwood city· child abuse

2:06:19 A newly discovered memo stamped confidential and labeled secret archives is stunning. Now part of court documents, it suggests Philadelphia's Roman Catholic Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua wanted to destroy possible evidence of 35 priests sexually abusing children. On the memo is a note handwritten by a bishop implicating his boss, the Cardinal. I shredded four copies of these lists from the secret archives. This action was taken on the basis of a directive I received from Cardinal Bevilacqua at the directives meeting of 3-15-94. If this claim proves to be true, it's a shocking indictment of one of the highest ranking people in the Roman Catholic Church in the United States. Court documents show one of those files was secretly kept in a safe, put there by a bishop who was supposed to shred the papers. The file was discovered after the bishop died.

2:07:16 Cardinal Bevilacqua died last month. Oh how convenient. Oh poor poor Cardinal Bevilacqua. A lot of people a lot of people there dying all of a sudden huh? Well you gotta do something. Who else died? Who else died? Who else died in the cover-up? From Penn State right? Yeah the old man died. Old man dies. If you don't think people are not being killed just to cover this stuff up you're crazy. You're crazy. So, uh... Talking about you say the mainstream media is not going to do its job. Here's a report, you can stop this when you feel like it, but this is the What is Child Abuse clip. There is a school, local school, where apparently some teacher was abusing the child. I want you to listen to this and tell me what was actually going on because you can listen to all these reports and read all these stories and there's never any mention of what it is that was going on.

2:08:14 Just banish like I'm Carolyn Johnson new developments tonight in a shocking abuse scandal at a Bay Area school Yeah, we have learned tonight that more adults at the school are in serious trouble ABC 7's Ama dates is in the newsroom with more on a story that you will see only on seven tonight Redwood City School District has completed its review in the alleged child abuse scandal that has a teacher facing charges new tonight We've learned six other employees will now face disciplinary action How could this have ever been allowed to happen? And why did six people stand idly by? why a child was being abused. Christopher Dolan is the attorney for the family of this five-year-old autistic boy who was enrolled in a special education preschool class at Roosevelt Elementary School. His teacher, Alexia Bogdiss, is accused of abusing him and another four-year-old boy. The abuse reportedly happened in December and January. Let me tell you something. This whole shooting thing, it's a cover-up.

2:09:15 Please, please be really afraid of guns. I think if I had a kid in school, I'd send them with a gun to shoot these abusing teachers. Yeah, but the question in my mind is what are we talking about? Is it verbal abuse? No, I understand what... Was it sexual abuse? Was it they beating the crap out of the kid? They can't tell you. It's never said. They can't tell you. Why? Because they don't want you to be really horrified. Or? Because you'd go in and you'd ship me there's a whole school in California everyone got replaced Yeah, I know that was made very clear. What was going on with this case. Yes, so they eat semen Are you crazy? Oh? I'm going nuts here

2:09:59 You don't know what's going on. It could be something horrible. They're not gonna tell you. It could be something horrible or not. But the thing is, I think we need to be told. They gotta report on this. They just can't have vague... If it is something horrible, then they're soft peddling the story. Well, it's only on 7. If it's so bad, why is it only one channel have the story? It's only on 7. The whole thing is sketchy. I don't like this kind of reporting. I don't know if you can find it fine. No! I think it stinks. No, call channel 7. It's only on 7. They must know, either they're covering it up or they don't know. It's gotta be one or the other. Let me try it again then. Better? It's a little distorted on the front end. Yeah, and Skype is so reliable. No, no, I'm telling you it was the same when you played first. Yeah. Maybe it's going into Skype and it hits Skype and goes oh my god and it screws it up because it's fine at the end. Okay, well it's leveled.

CDC Bat Flu Study, Contagion Movie, Vaccine Funding

The CDC co-authored a study finding flu viruses in bats, a scenario mirrored in the movie "Contagion," which the agency consulted on. The Immunization Action Coalition (IAC), which provides vaccine information to the public, receives significant funding from major pharmaceutical companies including Pfizer, Merck, and Baxter. This partnership between government agencies and Big Pharma is viewed as a conflict of interest in public health policy.

cdc· contagion· bats· influenza· baxter· pfizer· glaxo-smith-kline

2:11:08 Hmm. Uh, CDC, the Centers for Disease Control, uh... Co-authored a new study, and, uh, it's unbelievable. The same people who consulted on the movie Contagion now can tell you, but for the very first time, scientists have found evidence of flu in bats, reporting never-before-seen viruses whose risk to humans is unclear. It's so brazen. So they do the they find this is a wag the dog scenario completely they finance an entire movie. They have experts working on it at the end of the movie you see that you know the bat pooped in the and then the the pig ate it and then the person ate the bacon and then the whole world died and it literally says in this AP report

2:12:02 It could still pose a threat to humans. For example, if it mingled with more common forms of influenza, it could also swap genes and mutate into something more dangerous. A scenario at the heart of the global flu pandemic movie Contagion. I mean, really? It's just propaganda for vaccines, for flu vaccines and of the like. And one of my producers, our producers, was at his doctor's office and there was a pamphlet And he sent me a scan of this pamphlet. It was vaccine information. And on the pamphlet, there was a website, vaccineinformation.org. And vaccineinformation.org literally has what they call cell sheets. It's literally called cell sheets if you download the PDF, about what you need to give your patients to get them to take vaccines.

2:13:04 all kinds of you know question and answer scenarios and then so I look at that and I do a who is and its own the owners of the vaccine information org website So which is called for the immunization action coalition for the public and health professionals? so this is a professional website and then you go to immunize org, which is the IAC and And there they've really got, you know, it's like vaccine information statements, ask the experts, handouts for patients and staff. I mean all the cell sheets. I'm like, okay, well who's running this thing? And so I go to about, the IAC, and let's see, I click on funding, always interesting. This is very simple to do by the way.

2:13:49 The Immunization Action Coalition receives funding from a variety of sources. Who do you think they get it from, John? The Information Action Coalition? Well, I would think they're getting it from some drug companies for sure. Well, let's start with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It's a partnership with the CDC. The National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the CDC, the Mark and Muriel Wexler Foundation, Anonymous, apparently the hackers, the hacktivists are contributing, and then we have Baxter Healthcare Corp, CSL Biotherapies, GlaxoSmithKline, MedImmune Inc, Merck, Sharp and DoHume Corp, Novartis Vaccines, OrthoClinical Diagnostics Inc, Pfizer Inc, Sanofi Pasteur,

2:14:35 Our government is in bed with Big Pharma and they don't they just put it right there on the website. There's our 2012 funding and then they have the gall to say donate. The gall. They have a donate button. They have a donate button where they got companies like Baxter and these other big guys there with nothing but deep pockets. No, but that's to make it look... The nerve of these guys. That's to make it look legit. This is like the PBS donate button. And we are so stupid. We are so stupid. Remember that diet pill you were telling me about? And we figured out it was the combination of like two other pills? Yeah. So the FDA... And we should have jumped on that stock. The FDA approved it, stock doubled. Yeah, mine's still going up. Oh, you've been following... Did you get in on that action?

TJ Lane Facebook Poem, Bullying, Height Enhancement Ads

TJ Lane, the suspect in the Chardon school shooting, reportedly posted an ominous poem on Facebook ending with "die, all of you." The media coverage is criticized for focusing on the tragedy's emotional impact rather than the underlying issue of bullying. A commercial for height-enhancing shoes is mocked for its use of double entendres and appeal to insecure men.

Tell me what gas is up there. I'm surprised you didn't. You know the kid who shot up the place in Sharon, Ohio. I'm surprised you didn't get on this particular Note that he apparently had posted something on Facebook No, John because I think it's much more important to know why we're sending energy bars to North Korea I got to play this because this is just quite funny. Well. What is the closest bull crap die die die? I got it

2:16:22 Really? ...shooter are just now emerging. Classmates described Lane as an outcast who'd been bullied. It's unclear why he allegedly opened fire, but in late December, he posted a poem on his Facebook page that read, he longed for one thing, the world to bow at his feet, and ended ominously, die, all of you. No, I'm torn. Because on the one hand, I think if you're being bullied, probably go and shoot a couple people. That'll teach them. Definitely. Don't bully. You never know who you're going to bully. This is actually a very good lesson. You'd be bullying a psycho and you'd end up with a bullet in your head. Yes, it's a very good lesson. Instead of what the mainstream media was telling us,

2:17:06 Oh, this is so horrible. Do you want to kiss your kid tomorrow before he goes to school? Because it could be the last day you ever see him. That's all I heard Don Lemon saying. Kiss your kid. It might be the last time you see him. Instead of, hey, don't bully kids because you know you might shoot you. Smart. Don't bully people. So if you watch Fox. No. So there's a lot, apparently a lot of people, actually I'm not going to play this clip because I want to clip this one down, it's too funny. Oh actually you can, no. Screw it man, if it's good, if it's funny I'll go for it. No, no, it's funny if it was clipped down because it sounds, it's got double entendres all throughout it. I'm going to play it at max height, this is a commercial. Guys, pay attention. How would you like to have an extra two inches if your height makes you feel overlooked at work or embarrassed because... Why don't you just go work for the Jon Stewart show?

Bear Bile Farming, Bin Laden Compound Bibles

Animal welfare groups in China are campaigning against the legal practice of extracting bile from living bears for traditional medicine. In Abbottabad, Pakistan, workers tearing down the compound where Osama bin Laden was reportedly killed discovered two Bibles. The discovery adds to the skepticism surrounding the official narrative of bin Laden's life and death in Pakistan.

2:18:03 Okay, well just admit it. You just go work for David Letterman. You couldn't be his slide whistle bitch. I could. Yeah, clip it down. It'll be funnier. I get it. But it's like, you know, you're not really helping me. What am I supposed to be helping you for? I don't know. I'm not working for you. I'm not helping you. Plate, bear, bile, farming. Here's a story that you need to bust open. Oh, what? I'm not working for you. I'm not your story, bitch. Come on. Animal welfare groups in China have stepped up their campaign to stop bears being farmed for their bile. Bear bile is used as an ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine. It's supposed to cleanse the liver and improve eyesight. It's extracted from living bears without anesthetic and the practice is legal in China. But the campaigners say it is cruel and are calling for it to be stopped. Now though, the industry is fighting back. Michael Bristow, reports from Beijing.

2:19:01 What is a bear bile? They drill a hole, apparently all the zoo bears in China this is being done to. Who knew? Panda bears or regular bears? Essentially they drill a hole in the bear's stomach. Yeah, and then they just take the juice out and that's called bear bile and you drink it or what do you do? I just disgusting to look at I have no idea what you do. I guess you drink it I guess you mix it. So maybe it's a mixed drink. Maybe they mix it in stir-fry. I have no idea Stir-fry

2:19:38 If I see a bear around here, I'm shooting it and I'm gonna put his bile in my stir-fry. You should. I will. Some interesting news came through which you probably didn't hear about. You know they tore down the set. Bin Laden's compound there, that set in Abbottabad. Yeah, they gotta put something new up. Yeah. Guess what they found when they were tearing down the set? Corpse? Two Bibles. Well, they didn't burn them. No, but I mean how how whacked is that so bin Laden was there and he was reading the Bible well I think the guy was a phony. Yeah, and then the best cover-up of all We find out that the remains of passengers killed in the the Shanksville, Pennsylvania crash and the so-called airplane that crashed into the Pentagon and

9/11 Remains Landfill, Pentagon Report, Biomedical Waste

A Pentagon report revealed that partial remains of victims from the 9/11 crashes in Shanksville and the Pentagon were sent to a landfill. The remains were handled by a biomedical waste contractor after being processed at Dover Air Force Base. This disclosure comes years after the events, at a time when public attention on the details of the 9/11 investigations has largely faded.

2:20:38 You know, these real events that happened, John, these real things that, you know, the plane in Shanksville, of course, it left a little hole and there was no luggage, no nothing, it was just like a hole in the ground. And of course, there was no luggage or anything or, you know, nothing we found at the Pentagon for these planes, airplanes, aircraft, big airplanes. The remains were, it's unbelievable, they were thrown into a landfill. and chemically treated so that there's no we can't go back and find the evidence. Isn't that crazy how that happens? What remains? The remains, here it is I'll read it to you. It's from the Pentagon. Remains of the passengers killed in 9-11 crashes, Shanksville, Pennsylvania and the jet that struck the Pentagon in Northern Virginia were sent to Dover then to a landfill

2:21:36 And handled by, I'll give you the name of the company, it's a chemical treatment company. Because what they do is they basically pour chemicals on the landfill so that you can't find any more evidence. This just happened? Yeah, this report came out of the Pentagon. How long have these bodies been laying around? No, no, no, this didn't, the report just came out that that's what happened with the remains. Oh, right off the bat. Yeah, they took them away, threw them in the landfill and treated them, here it is.

2:22:15 The report adds the mortuary officials first believed that after final incineration nothing remained of the victims. Reviewing the report, the Washington Post reveals that residual material from the 9-11 victims did exist. However, they were handed to a biomedical waste disposal contractor hired by the Pentagon that then approved for the remains to go to the landfill and be treated. They just throw it in your face, don't they? Well, I'm surprised they didn't do this earlier. Well, I think they did it, but they only just now are coming out with a report now that no one cares anymore. It's been a long time. I don't give a crap. Yeah, it's true. Nobody gives a crap. Yep. More than two in five former House staffers who registered as lobbyists went to one of Washington's main lobbying firms.

In the renewable energy sector, Abound Solar is cutting 70% of its staff despite receiving a $400 million federal loan guarantee. The failures are attributed to an inability to compete with low-cost solar panel production from China.

2:23:21 50 of those were legislative assistants 32 were chiefs of staff 26 legislative directors and 22 were staff assistants I thought we were promised this would be not happen this revolving door didn't the president promises that I Think so I think he says he was gonna take care of it that and getting a closing getmo Getting us out of Iraq immediately and some other take that to the bank commentary. Yeah, yeah, there's that story is obviously false and Now clearly it can't be true. Someone can't count. Well then while we just wind up here with the Obama campaign, the CEO of Light Squared has resigned, Sanjeev Ahuja. Of course we talked about how the president had invested in the company before it became Light Squared, then Senator Barack Obama put $90,000 into the, I think it was Skynet or Skytel or something like that.

2:24:15 And then of course they were going to get walked through FCC approval and that backfired, particularly when the CEO of Light Squared called up his buddy Anish Chopra, then CTO for President Obama, and said, hey, I happen to be donating a lot of money today. Can I get a meeting? So he's now out. So it's kind of a shame because I thought it would be cool to have that wireless broadband everywhere. So we're getting screwed on the deal. I'm sure there were some big players in the background on that. I'm sure Verizon wasn't too happy with it. And solar, I guess, how's solar? Is solar just like over? I guess we figured out that solar doesn't really work.

2:25:00 No, what we figured out was that the Chinese can produce solar panels so cheap that there's no way even a breakthrough in technology can compete with them. That's what we figured out. A Bound Solar, who received a $400 million federal loan guarantee, is cutting 70% of their staff. They're about to go out of business. Another Obama-friendly deal there. Insane, ladies and gentlemen. Insane. And what do we hear on the news? Oh man, your pickup truck's got your last, you know, like just a piece of paper from your house. I feel bad, but that's not news people. Bear bile farming is.

NDAA Indefinite Detention, Eric Holder Testimony, Fast and Furious

President Obama issued a directive regarding the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that allows the Attorney General to waive certain protections for "covered persons." Attorney General Eric Holder testified before Congress, defending his record and blaming the Bush administration for the "Fast and Furious" gun-walking scandal. Holder claimed he stopped the program as soon as he became aware of its flawed nature.

ndaa· eric holder· barack obama· indefinite detention· fast and furious· bush administration

2:25:51 Two days ago, I think, how was it two days ago? Let me double check. The president came out with a presidential policy directive. Yes, this came out yesterday, February 28th. Now, if you remember the NDAA, the National Defense Authorization Act, had a provision in there regarding section 1022, which is, there's two portions to that, 1021, 1022. 1022 is that you can detain a terrorist, an enemy combatant indefinitely. 1021 is that you can basically call anyone a covered person.

2:26:34 an enemy combatant. Therefore you can be black bagged, droned, whatever. Fair game, I guess is what we call it. And this had to be, the president had to make some decisions on this as to the guidance of how a covered person would be determined within 60 days of the signing of the bill. Well, lo and behold, 59 days later, he comes out with the Presidential Policy Directive requirements of the National Defense Authorization Act. There's been a lot of dissemination of this online. It's a very long legal document, but at the end, I'll just read to you section E. You know, this is my hobby. I like reading these things. Effect of National Security Waiver.

2:27:16 As provided in Section 2E of this directive, nothing in this directive precludes the Attorney General, that's Eric Holder, the guy who kills people, in consultation with other senior national security officials, whoever that is, from issuing a national security waiver at any time. Once such a waiver is issued, the covered person determination process for an individual covered by that waiver shall cease and no further action shall be required under Section 102.2 of this directive. In other words, blahdy blahdy blah, blahdy blahdy blah, if we say you're bad, screw you, we're picking you up. This is worse than the NDAA itself.

2:28:00 What are you doing? This is a surprise to you? No, but I have to report on it. Where else are you going to get this news? You didn't know about it. I did actually. No. No, I was looking at just wanted to summarize one big one thing just kind of like a finish my contribution here. But you weren't listening to me. You don't care. Okay. No, I was listening to you. They said that they can just arrest you even more easily than they could before and without trial. Yeah, if Eric Holder decides so. The general. I thought they were trying to get rid of that guy. Yeah, they are. He got really angry. Did you hear that? He was pounding the desk. About what? About Fast and Furious. Oh, he's still denying it or what's the deal? I got the clip for you. I didn't see it. Did you have a clip? I didn't see any. This is new? Yeah, this is new. He's pounding the desk and blaming the Bush administration. Attorney General, just an hour or so ago.

2:28:56 That was a fundamentally flawed program, fundamentally flawed. And I think that I can actually agree with some of my harshest critics that there are legitimate issues that need to be explored with regard to the way in which Fast and Furious was carried out. But I think one thing that also has to be understood is that once this was brought to my attention, I stopped. I stopped it. I stopped it. In spite of what other attorneys general might have done with briefings that they got, I stopped it. When this attorney general heard about these practices, I said to the men and women of the United States Department of Justice, to the field, to people at Maine Justice, this ain't going to be the way we conduct business. So do you think he actually went to the entire department and said, brothers and sisters, this ain't the way we're going to be doing business?

2:29:48 He actually- This sounds like a bogus story. He actually said- This doesn't follow the timeline. This ain't gonna be the way we do- No, of course not. The guy is lying through his teeth and no one's covering this. But he actually says, this ain't gonna be the way we do in Bidneth. What are you? Yeah, sure. What are you? Were you from South Central LA all of a sudden? What are you? I- It's a gangster. Oh yeah, I'm sorry. What are you, Snoop Dogg all of a sudden? Eric, Eric Snoop Dogg Holder. This ain't gonna be the way we do Bidneth. Roll me another blunt. Well, you're up to date now. Yeah, great. I have a holder thing. It's just annoying.

The contrast between the high-end advertisers and the news content highlights the socioeconomic divide in media consumption.

CHAPTER 41 / 42 Discussion

Herman Van Rompuy, European Integration, Outro

European Council President Herman Van Rompuy discussed the need for deeper European integration and "social cohesion" during the ongoing financial crisis. He used the term "infuse" to describe the process of integrating member states, which is interpreted as a plan to dissolve national sovereignty. The show concludes with a sign-off from Austin, Texas, and Northern California.

2:32:26 and asked a question on our behalf, which I think might be fun to play as an end of show clip. It's about a minute 45. Yeah, I'm always game for Maynard. Yeah, Maynard. I think it would be a miss though if we didn't talk about Euroland just briefly. I know you and Horowitz are always all over this on the Unplugged show. But Haiku Herman, who we really don't mind ridiculing for his horrible pronunciation and his awkward way of speaking, He's really laying down the gauntlet on Europe. Why can't we do both? It can't be a long clip. No, I want to play those just now just to wind it up if you're okay with it. I think we should just... Oh, you want to play before the... You don't want to play in the show clip? No, we have to laugh at him and... All right, play Haiku first. Haiku Herman, the President of the United States of Europe who has just been reinstated for another two and a half year term because he had no contenders. We are seeing clear signs of stabilization in the financial markets.

2:33:28 Is that true John? I'm just checking with you. Well, it depends on whether you believe the lies or not. Okay. Interest rates decreased dramatically. Is that true? Well, they were pretty high so it didn't take much. Yeah, probably. They've decreased dramatically what for the banks? No, the bonds, the bonds from country to country. They've gone down a little bit. But not for you and me. It's not like if I want to go borrow money for a house. No, no, you can't get money for that. In a lot of countries. A lot of countries. But we are not complacent and remain vigilant and ready to act. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm very much aware.

2:34:08 that this crisis and some remedies put social cohesion at stake. Now let's analyze that, social cohesion at stake. In other words, slaves get an uppity? Is that what he means? Like people are not so cohesive? We're not obeying the law? It can also damage the European idea itself. And that's why we have to tackle inequalities and poverty. That's why we need results of our policies in terms of growth and job. Growth and job. Can I have some growth and job with my bare bile, please? The European social model is not that. Is not that. I repeat, is not that. You slaves who are starving, it is not that. You will be dead, but it is not that.

2:35:01 early involvement of all relevant stakeholders in particularly the social partners is necessary for the adjustment measures to be successful. The adjustment... I think we've heard enough of this guy. I don't think so. Why, has he got something good to say? Yeah, he's got something good to say here. Listen for the word. As an outsider I sometimes have the impression that the European Parliament and the national parliaments live in different worlds. Really? The one always pushing for more integration and the others focusing on domestic issues and pulling the brakes. Wait for it. This is why it is important to understand each other's perspective. Sixty years of integration has taught us that Europe is not built by dissolving member states.

2:35:53 but by infusing them ever more deeply. What do you mean by outsider? Well, he's an outsider. How is he an outsider? He's running the place. No, he's in Starfleet command. It's like the president saying he's an outsider. Yeah, well, there you go. And first of all, you got to pull the brake. You don't step on the brake. With Haiku, you're pulling the brake, pulling the brake of the clutch car. But infuse. What is the definition of infuse? You know what it is? I don't know. It's incorporated. It's like you infuse. It's like you infuse some lemon juice in some water, you know. It's like making a tea. It's infused. You boil a tea bag and you infuse the essence of the tea into the water. I think it's a highly offensive word. They're saying we're not going to kick you out. We're going to infuse you.

2:36:50 Infuse. Let me just look it up. I don't like your definition. T. Her work is in...uh...to fill. Her work is infused with an anger born of pain and oppression. Well, that's a proper use right there. Yeah, to soak. Soak in liquid to extract the flavor. Soak. I think you're right. You were right. Soak. Yeah, they're gonna soak the government. They're gonna soak the public. That's what it means exactly. They're going to soak you. There you go. He's not lying this time. We're gonna soak you, Biatch. I had no idea what that clip was about. Well, I think it's important our Europeans don't get any news either, John. How else are they gonna find out about what's going on with their president? The guy's a... The guy... How is he an outsider? If you're in Europe and you appreciate that, give us some value for value, please.

2:37:55 Bear crawling live every Thursday night 9 30 p.m. 11 30 p.m. Eastern time on the no agenda stream hosted by Charles McFall For those of you checking us out on the stream.

CHAPTER 42 / 42 Discussion

LGBTQI Acronym, Sydney Mardi Gras, Sam Interview

An interview at a Sydney event explores the evolution of the LGBTQI acronym and the push for marriage equality in Australia. The subject, Sam, explains that the long acronym is necessary to represent the disparate experiences of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transgender people, intersex individuals, and those who identify as queer. The segment addresses the difficulty of finding a single inclusive term for the community.

2:38:54 On behalf of the No Agenda Show here, I'm actually in a small corridor with Sam right now with some people wandering past. Now Sam, what were you doing here tonight and where were you? I was here to talk about the upcoming Mardi Gras and the push for gay and lesbian rights here in Sydney and how it's evolved over the last 30 years, particularly looking at the issue of marriage equality and same-sex families. For the No Agenda Show, the two hosts, Adam Currie who identifies as queer and questioning and John C. Dvorak who identifies as just generally discontent with things. What they would like to ask, and it's basically an American issue, whenever there's the gay and lesbian and transgender, there's all these initials afterwards and I think that's a great thing but is there a way we can say that the gay and fellow travelers that keeps everyone happy without anyone feel disenfranchised because there's now a lot of letters there. Look there is, there are a lot of letters but I don't think it's particularly hard. I mean I say LGBTIQ like it rolls off the tongue, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer

2:39:49 And I think it's really difficult because there is it is a disparate community and I think when you start just Labeling everyone as gay for example you eclipse the fact that you know trans people have very different experiences intersex people are very different experiences bisexual people and queer people who aren't gay and and lesbians also have very different experiences, so I mean I think Yes, it is an acronym, but it's not a really difficult acronym to say and I mean I think as well It's also about the context you're in people often just use the acronym as try and be inclusive But then all they do when they talk is talk about gay men or lesbian women and then forget about intersex people or trans people or bisexual people So I think it's all dependent on your context Is there possibly one word that can describe such a disparate community that we could use that doesn't offend anyone look do
