Poison Wheat

00:00 But will it make the collapse easier? Oh yeah! Wearing nowhere near as much makeup as Bill Clinton. Right here in the capital of the drone star state, Austin Tejas. In the morning everybody I am Adam Curry and from northern Silicon Valley where i'm not wearing any makeup at all, in fact they just got up! I'm John C. Dvorak. And I think we've entirely forgot to send the bat signal, the tweet. Let everybody know that were on the air and we wonder why donations are down. We can do well as donations are off because it was a holiday week every time you have a holiday is like kills us. Why? Why do even bother showing up? That's what I say because we enjoy it so much. It's weird because it wasn't sure it wasn't weird short week because my birthday was on Labor Day

01:04 Oh, that's right. Happy birthday! Thank you My mother was in labor on Labor Day How about them apples? Wow Yeah It was like... Hello Mrs. Curry You tweeted I see it right here I just tweeted now yeah? Very tweet Looks like it's a boy Mrs. Curry Keep grinding there with the... This is sound effects Looks like its'a boy Mrs. Curry Yes Hold on a second He's a healthy boy That was an actual drill sound effect from a drill

01:40 That's how we roll here. I just want more gadgets around, more gadgets that are real and do real stuff Hey straight to it John big breaking news It could not be more coincidental Okay? I hope you heard about it Philadelphia to Dallas flight US Airway returns to airport because why because FBI received an anonymous tip An anonymous tip that someone had liquid explosives on board. Liquid? Now this is very specific, the liquid explosives because for the past week there's been a lot of talk and in fact I think BloggerPob over there at the TSA blog has responded about it that the TSA is now at the gate

02:34 uh, dipping litmus paper into your drinks to make sure it's not going to explode on the plane. Have you seen any- You can't bring drinks on the plane in the first place! No no no it's after security... Okay? Oh. You are sitting at the gate Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait You've purchased your coffee from Starbucks I kid you NOT! Wait a minute how am I...? Okay So you're sitting there with your bottled water which you purchase after security Okay at the store, you know that eight bottle a dollar bottle of water or maybe your Starbucks or maybe a milkshake and To and this video of this to TSA team members will come up to you and say hey You know we're testing though. We need to test your drink I

03:18 And they'll stick a little stick in there and see if it changes color, see if your drink is going to explode. And now of course... They should do a test for acidity on those Starbucks coffees! Holy crap you're gonna ruin your gut drinking this stuff buddy! Unfortunately people started to see this and complain about it and became a story and then today all of the sudden Oh, listen we have oh boy big scare liquid explosives. Oh my goodness find someone with liquid explosives on that plane I'm sorry what it was a hoax? A hoax yeah apparently the well, i'm reading anyone could call up any you know so now Yeah, okay. So they're encouraging hoaxes is what you're telling me by making this a news story. I'm telling ya! I'm going to find the uh... This is from hold on.. I shall tell you exactly where breaking news and specifically The Hoaxer here's liquid explosive yes which coincidentally was what they've been testing

04:16 I mean this is a hoax so the hoaxter works for TSA that's the only thing I can say. I think not! You think? Here Fishlawn Philadelphia security scare colon all indications this was hoax pretty nasty trick played on passenger mm-hmm sure sure as from NBC Philadelphia Who are saying it's apparently a hoax. We have no idea of course what's true or not, what's not true But the timing of this is uncanny I had in my list and like oh you're gonna talk about these TSA boneheads who were caught You know um...I was uh

04:56 Oh yeah, here's... So while you're looking at that let me just give my anecdote because I flew from Oakland to Burbank last week or the week whenever it was. Right oh you were in Los Angeles right? Los Angeles for the hookers and blow convention It was a huge convention. Lines around the block i tell ya Yeah lines lots of lines so I got it, at Oakland they warned you said that you're standing in the line. You know the cattle line with a number A1 through 15 1 through 30 whatever it says. Oh your doing JetBlue

05:34 No, I'm sorry. Southwest. Yeah my favorite airline. And by the way you know in the olden days before they had this thing where they have A1 through 30 B1 through 30 whatever They used to have just a big kind of gate that said A and one said B and one said C and people would line up on the thing You know I like the southwest system much better That's what i'm talking about. Southwest is the only one that does it No, but originally before they came up with this numbering thing. They have colors on Southwest like you had a red or no No There was an A and B in a seat And they had three separate little opening holes that said a b & c on him and people would line up on the on the a they'd Lineup there be hours before yeah like she's ready for the slaughter so they would line up and stand there for like an hour because you wanted to get a better scene

06:24 There's no way of doing it any other way. If you would clog up the aisles, it was a disaster for them. And this is the most sophisticated... It's sophisticated! Yeah Now here's the thing that gets me now they have a thing where it's A1 through 3 you had to stand You just be supposedly make your own or you stand in order of the ticket that you got, you know boarding pass Yeah Which is kind of so why do some old timers still go up about an hour ahead of time and stand there like idiots? And you know if I were you I wouldn't question it because you're only five years away from doing that yourself bro. Oh you remember when I had to stay

07:00 Is it my turn yet? We're on the topic. Well, I'm the top of that guy so I go to Monterey foods and there was some woman comes in with a you know pile of Trader Joe bags because she can't use the paper bag so those want to ruin the environment I Know you that's LA is over these dirty old bags are just Filthy and there's stuff in shit in them and tomatoes at the bottom are leaking out the bottom of the bag And it's they're dripping, and she's looking for a pennies at the bottom or this was in the airport Or this was any change in subject. Now you're okay, but yours is Los Angeles? Back to the airport story So I go there and so they have an announcement Ladies and gentlemen, TSA will be doing random spot checks on all passengers Ladies and gentlemen just let you know for your security TSA will be doing some random spot checks at the gate You recognize them by their uniform which of course means they have not taken an oath before the constitution Please nothing to fear carry on

08:02 That's exactly it. So, uh so they're pulling- so what you do is of course you try to zoom by without making eye contact. No eye contact! Don't look at him don't look at the TSA guy. Baboons... Do not look a baboon in the eyes in The Wild. So this is same thing just assume the TSA has a bunch of baboons. Wait a minute I just want to get this straight when I'm in the jungle if I see a baboon Do not look him in the eye. That's what you're telling me I'm telling you yes, that is a handy tip It is a handy tip. So anyway, same thing with TSA so you don't look them in the eyes and zoom by I got by but they stopped a bunch of people at random mostly Mexicans it seemed to me. But I don't know what the deal is You know this just let's hire more people Well I have to say that because of course this hasn't happened to me yet and I did speak to someone Sunday she says since came up in conversation we were hanging out somewhere

08:58 And you know, it's a nice middle-aged woman. You know she was kind of cute looking She says you know I'm not it's happened to me so many times because she flies a lot I met the at the gate TSA comes up they want to look at my bag and she says they put like a gun in My bag It looks like a gun and if they zap it and it's like a light flash or something Which I've never heard of I said well, then you didn't ask what that was no no no Jesus now I got to tell her not to look the baboon in the eye What? Yeah, I've never heard of this. She says it happened a couple of times they come up they say open up your handbag or your hand luggage They stick what she calls is like a gun so i guess you know can be like uh... I guess has a grip maybe its like a supermarket scanner I don't know what it is and they stick in the bag and flashes and then that's it they look at something and they looked some meter and that's it I've never heard of this You gotta find out with this is Never heard of this either

09:57 I've never seen this process. Yeah, neither have I but it wouldn't surprise me that they just have maybe it is just some TSA with a supermarket scanner just like watch this Watch these idiots go for this one This is really funny Beep beep beep beep beep beep Oh you got to beep beep beep alert Beep beep beep beep beep Anyway so yeah so but you know I'm not quite sure what to do You know we're an opt-out family And so now if I just bought a coffee and someone comes up and wants to stick something in it, I don't think I'm going to be very cooperative. Especially depending on whether they want to stick in it? Yeah but I'm just gonna throw it in the trash and say stick it in there! I'm not gonna cooperate with that... That's bull crap Well here is the problem I have Just at the top of my head I do no know what these little testing strips have in them But could be toxic Could be all kinds of crap yeah

10:55 Are you poisoning my coffee for a reason? Let me just see... Blogger Bob TSA drink test. I saw there was a, here we go, TSA blogger Bob random testing of liquids at departure gates okay here we go this is blogger bob So they're assuming that somehow someone's gonna smuggle some liquids into one of the restaurants and then you're gonna take that liquid in a very complex scheme. Yeah, smuggling it in exactly And you're going to smuggle this liquid explosive whatever that might be onto the plane and blow it up

11:38 Oh, damn these. Yeah that's the idea! Well they brought a whole... here it is. Oh no, they simply.. okay As far as testing of liquids at the gate this is just one of many options we have to choose from when deciding what additional tactics to use each day like you know grabbing your penis or putting you know testing your drink We started using test strips back in the summer of 2007 and continue to do so. Wow, never heard of this! The test involves a test strip and dropper containing non-toxic solution In case you're wondering our officers don't place the test strips in your beverage or liquids they simply have the passenger remove cap or lid They hold the strip over opening container

12:22 What? What?! Oh, I see what they're trying to go for. Okay that's a possibility that could work. Procedures call for moving the test strip to the side and applying the solution from the dropper to the test strip. Oh, I see what they're saying okay so you can't accuse them of poisoning you So uh...what are they doing with the dropper They're sticking the drop- oh, they could be pointing. Oh so they just get to see if there's any vapor that comes off and then they drop? This is stupid! You know I'm gonna pour it on their feet here you stick your stick your litmus paper in there do you trust your drop ooh iIm sorry Sorry that's what i'm gonna do

13:01 You could freak out and then yeah, freak out and do one of those things where you jump when they come up to you. And the coffee goes flying into the air! You scared me! You scared me lady! And then I just do a... Nothing wrong with me lady. Jump, jump. I'm sorry, I have Tourette's You gave me an immediate Tourette's attack. Yeah, you actually do have Tourette's. It is possible you can get away with this. They'd probably only have you locked up for a day or two. Well I tell ya we gotta... Did you see that note from our doctor friend about the Hell doll that were talking about? Which apparently I can get for my Tourettes. It's FOR Tourettes! Yeah. So instead of... Hell would make for an interesting show. Well this is what I was talking to him about

14:01 I was thinking instead of you know instead of first of all instead of Tourettes, I can have my tongue You know wiggling it out and wiggling around a small worm like which. I think is quite an improvement over over my normal twitches So dr.. Jeff check it out doctor did you see this that he sent this to you? Dr.? Jeff I am Remember guys in reference to your how doll drug reference on the last show I thought you would like to know a common medical term for medical restraint is known as B-52 it is a combination presumably in reference to the b-52 bomber It is a combination of how doll? Ativan and Benadryl, and it's he actually sent me a link to the chemical restraint

14:48 I use Geodon. Geodon, maybe you've heard of that? Which is a similar medication that possesses a less bad side effect profile. Haldol can be found in long acting or short acting form many of the egregious side effects are in the long-acting form I enjoyed John's reading of the list of side effects hilarious what a great drug come to think of it That sounds like a new segment for you guys and I wrote him back. I said I have a better idea Why don't

15:30 Each time we talk about one of these drugs, why don't I try it and then we'll discuss it on the show. I won't try it on the show! I mean... I already tried the Adderall case so now we know what that is you know? And I think we should try each of these drugs and see if I have any of these great side effects Now that I'm not smoking I'm looking for some thrill I'm looking for an adventure here. I want to see the tongue hanging out. That's my favorite Can someone there small worm like? Please send me some Apparently in the south I was told this by some woman who used to live in Georgia She answered but she was from someplace else and she says apparently the way She's always driving around as some guy in his pickup truck would hit on her by staring at her out The window and wiggling his tongue around that's so sexy

16:24 and the thing that reminded me of the scene which is the same theory that was in Scarface with Al Pacino. You're right, you're right. Say hello to my little friend! He said that's how you pick up women he told his buddy that at the early part of the movie yeah I've tried that one it works real great All right, should we thank our producers before we move on? We were like the thought. We were a little late I'm thanking them on Sunday. Yeah, I think we dragged dragged along yeah Executive producer yeah, we've got

17:01 Kobe Hung who came in at $441 and becomes the executive producer. I've been a longtime boner, it's about time I cough up some contributions to you guys. I'm donating to become an executive producer for show 441 which is what the show is. And he'll be 441 club member exclusive Yep, exclusive member of the 441 which is a good number. Although I do not subscribe to Adam's out-of-this world views on issues like the moon landing and Stargate... ...I'm a huge fan of both your analysis on the pipelines and the Arab Spring among many other media assassination analyses but say what you will about Adam in his crackpot theories they're usually the most entertaining parts at this show

17:43 Really? I think so. I can fully relate to Adam's point about how people have sunken so low that any discussion will ultimately result in a name-calling match, I've been branded a Republican for pointing out flaws in Obama's policies and received similar treatment by the way and the Democrats are always complaining about this and receive similar treatments from both ends of the political spectrum mind you when discussing local politics in Hong Kong the discussion or the decision of whether I can keep my job will be made over the coming weekend so I could... Oh, my goodness. ...have to come to beg for some much-needed... From Huntsman and not a great question karma. Oh wow the formula Not a great question Okay, okay?

21:04 He's picking up on the really important stuff. The New York Times does not like Paul Ryan bad cover photo These are good things, these are all good things Seal team book about Osama capture the guy who killed bin Laden had already died in a helicopter crash I mean this is actually basically the cliff notes of the show Yeah that's good Adam and hot water for denying moon landing You have to have an approved opinion when society turns fascist, I mean this is good stuff. So anyway that's dailyskew.com and again we thank our executive producers Coben Alexander and our associate executive producer Andrew Wilson We can name them all by name That's how it went for this episode For supporting the best podcast in the universe

21:54 Slash N-A. Of course, even though there is a holiday weekend you probably were out there propagating our formula right? Our formula is this... We go out we hit people in the mouth. Shut up! And I would just like to say In the morning to you, John C. Dvorak! Producers who are in the chat room know agenda stream calm no agenda chat net all charged up ready to go Vacation holiday or not. They're here isn't this a whole summer thing almost over isn't it time that everyone starts back to school It's true is done yeah, okay? Yeah We got one lousy hot pockets tour out of the whole thing and yes money on the deal you're gonna have to Unplug your mic yeah, you went kind of I'm kind of helium on me

23:09 So while you're doing that, hello? Testing 1 2 3 4 5. Yeah there you go. Testing 1 2 3 4 5. Testing 1 2 3 4 5 took that hello. Yeah I hear you! Hello? Yeah hello?! Hello I hear you! Hello? Hello can you You almost... Hello? Yeah, hello. I hear you! How come you don't hear me?! You must have screwed something up. Ah Jesus. No, okay, you were breaking up. Oh okay well i've been hearing you the whole time. Also i'm just going hello hello? Rather annoyingly so yes Well that's better than saying CQCQ I guess. You should do that next time Security X security x anyone out there any anyone have their ears oh hold on

24:07 Hey, here's what I learned from NOAgenda since Sunday. A disproportionate amount of our listeners either likes, brews or certainly drinks beer Yeah, we got a lot of beer information and the information goes is that us let me summarize yeah Go back to where the whole conversation came. The White House said something about you know Obama's a beer drinker no No, I'm sorry It was a we the people, you know when we're asking about legalizing marijuana or why the TSA is doing all these horrible things that gets taken down off of whitehouse.gov but when people ask about the beer recipe then of course we get an answer

24:58 So they give us a recipe for crap beer, essentially. And the White House is drinking this junk and so we condemned it and also brought this notion about the use of the word corn sugar which apparently it's kosher And so a bunch of our beer brewers out there say, you know it's pretty good. I mean it is a real formula for making beer for amateurs or starting out. Yeah exactly. But I thought we had a brewmeister in the White House? Was he starting out was he just a phony like everybody else at that White House? Have you seen the video? No! Oh there's a whole video its like five minutes this guy has no brewmeister

25:39 He's like the guy who is flipping burgers in the back. Yeah, he gets a bucket and then takes it down to the closet puts it into some closet God! In a big pail and then brings it back No, you've got to see this video It was in last episode show notes no good By the way so many people sent me all kinds of interesting stuff There's a website here, ffbeers.com which gives you measurements of how much fluoride is in your beer. Yeah! Perfect for you. This is the perfect thing for you. Send it and add more links like that. Well, you'd be amazed. What is your favorite beer John?

26:28 I would say that if i was going to pick a beer, you know at a bar I'd probably pick Lagunitas IPA. Lagunitas is probably the best brewer in the west coast. How do you spell that? Lagunitas L-a-g-u-n-i-t-a-s. I didn't test out one. Crap! I didn't test out one. I got Budweiser I bet you do. Bell's Pale Ale, but all of them have... Is 9.9 parts per million? Is that a lot? It depends on the... There are some chemicals that'll kill you. Well fluoride is fluoride. I don't know what to... Let me get the Merck book out where is it? Where's the Merck? So there's here it is in actually that's Summit Brewery Company Great Northern Porter has 0.9 parts

27:27 Lots of people drink that. Let me see, oh Pabst Blue Ribbon. Pabst! 0.4 parts per million That is the hipster's beer of choice Exactly And I usually drink a Bud because I'm superstitious You're from Texas you should be drinking Buds Nooo Shiner Bock Shiner Bock exactly and what did i have the other day? I had like Fire Engine Brewing Company but that's like a local beer That's not going to be on this list Like fire engine number five or something. So one of our listeners wanted us to talk about the Quebec situation Yeah, but I want you to find out what's dangerous Do you have the Merc thing? No, no, I don't have it handy. I'd have to go scrounging around the house for it Doesn't sound good to me Stop drinking beer drink wine Okay, yeah the Quebec situation mean the false flag is that we were talking about I don't think was a false flag False like for what

28:28 I don't know to accomplish what's the what is the false flag implies that there are some policy that needs to be implemented. What needs to be implemented? It was not obvious That this nut was actually shooting an actual gun Well, they did show the gun in one of the reports. I saw it. It's a rifle actually Yeah But look like an air rifle could have been did you know I have the somebody said they heard the loud boom Somebody said they did I got a couple of reports here we can play that we get this out of the way Isolated nutcase now the most interesting. I have is Quebec by Russia today They had their own little look at it mm-hmm and Russia today has become a really good point of information from a propagandistic perspective Yeah, you think?

29:19 Now, at the time that shots were heard Pauline Marois was telling a crowd of supporters that Quebec needs to become a sovereign country. Independent journalist Robert Harnais says the rift between English and French Canada it's only growing wider It would be nice to believe that the man's just a lunatic. It is pretty clear he may be a lunatic, but it is motivated by the divisions in Canada and one has to remember that division go both ways because of English Canadians under British Empire always ruled the roost French Canadians began to become very bitter about this and inevitably over time that has caused many problems they want autonomy

30:03 I think that it is going to revive passions, if that's the right way to put it. That's putting perhaps a little bit emotionally but obviously it will and some English Canadians feel very strongly about this, I know as of course do some French Canadians Well I don't think the... So with false flag? I mean I think that this was meant to spark some kind of revolt between in the English and French speakers who really do hate each other it appears Well, this is exaggerated the RT report. Now if you listen to the French station, French 24 I have a clip of 24 on French separatism and there's a little more realistic look at things. Polls have suggested most Quebec residents show little interest in separating from the rest of Canada

30:54 Is this election likely to change things? Well, if you're talking about sovereignty separatism don't hold your breath Annette because let's just go by past precedent. You're absolutely right party Québécois on the record as a separatist for a sovereign Quebec separate from the rest of Canada that said even the new premier of Quebec Pauline Marois is on the record saying she will only hold a referendum when so-called she would do it tomorrow morning but only if the conditions are right Okay, so now they go on and on about how this has been going forever. But there's one angle that they had on French 24 which nobody else had which is the student angle. Also the economy I'm sure is playing a large part in all of this and we remember those disruptive student protests that rocked Quebec earlier this year where have they all gone? Yeah well they haven't been on the streets you're absolutely right although the students surprisingly are sort of claiming victory right now

31:49 as a result of these elections. They are saying they are effectively the ones that brought down the liberals of Charest and why did they do it? Because Charest had been actually pressing to raise tuition fees, he called these elections in a sense calling students bluff saying I bet most public opinion will be behind me on this issue because public education is publicly financed. He ended up losing that bet, but Padi Quebecois the winner in this election has said they would not raise the fees now remains to be seen whether they'll be able to carry out that promise for now the students are standing by watching waiting warily you're right there not on the streets for now Annette but I wouldn't rule it out could heat up again in the future depending where this tuition issue goes

32:30 Hmm. I think that what happened is this is a distraction from the fact that the students in Canada, especially in Quebec Actually have some power and nobody wants to talk about it as a possibility Nobody wants admitted good. That's a very good point Because they were, I mean it was big and of course that was not covered anywhere but it was really really big. The world does not want the students especially since most are unemployed and got nothing better to do They don't want them figuring out that they have some impact And if this is what happened in Canada where they actually got an election To go their way This is not something you wanna publicize In fact I'm surprised I even ran into this little tidbit as soon as they said it

33:11 I'm buying that. We'd have to know how the student turnout was in voting, I presume they were pretty high. You can get them to come out for Obama in 2008 big time. That of course is the austerity in In Quebec, charging the students more tuition. Nothing like what they've announced in Greece! Have you heard this? No go. The Troika that would be the EU High Starfleet Command, the European Central Bank and the IMF

33:55 have, they've said look we think everyone should go to a six-day work week in Greece. That's a good one. You know the Greeks... It is true! When this began didn't we already find that the Greeks have the highest productivity already in most of Europe? They work approximately 750 hours more than any per year than They worked, they had the highest...they worked the most hours. And for some reason that just and that meme was slipped in there and I'm not quite sure how it got in there other than just to stir up some crap but Haiku Herman he we haven't heard from him in a while He is the unelected president of the entire shebang there and he came out and he had a little speech

34:49 And I as I was listening to it, I'm like wow. It's a complex crisis we are talking about fiscal crises competitiveness crisis banking crisis that overlap and sometimes mutually reinforce each other sounds pretty F to me IQ unsurprisingly This creates divergent readings of the root causes of the crisis. Oh, okay! So do you want to have a little gander here what the root cause of the crisis is and what he's going to say? Isn't it him?! Yes, you are correct John C. de Waarak It is him, it is only him If we can only get rid of that president everything will be fine Among political leaders

35:33 and public opinions. Some blame reckless government spending, others careless lending by banks or failing supervision, others still point at systemic flaws within the economic and monetary union. There is no single answer. Aha, there is so maybe the whole plan was just bad to start with hmm. Just as there is no easy fix Okay now here it comes and I want to see if you've ever heard this To quote Einstein the only thing I understand from Einstein by the way for every Well, I gotta roll it back we stepped on his great quote okay here We go and by the way

36:22 For every problem there is a solution that is clear and simple and wrong. Now I looked this up, everywhere I looked that quote was attributed to HL Mencken That sounds like a Mencken-esque quote. Yeah, it doesn't sound anything like Einstein. Einstein wasn't like Yogi Berra you know coming out with these one liners these zingers So who was HL Mencken? HL Mencken was a very famous journalist in the, I want to say the 30s maybe the 20's. Whatever the case he wrote also but he was a book writer and did some fantastic books on American language and he was very notorious for being a curmudgeon. I think it is a huge difference between quoting something from Einstein as Haiku said there or HL Mencken particularly if you're attributing the quote to Einstein

37:23 I mean, I gave you 10 points on this one. I almost gave you Cliff of the Day but it seems premature It's uh...I was just like wow! In our case there are several such clear simple and wrong solutions Let's hear some of your wrong solutions For instance just let Greece go from the eurozone or just pump money unconditionally into the system Or magically create a US style Federal State. I think we should try them all, what do you think John? I think it is go for all of the above They should do US style federal state There's also a problem The obvious complexity Of our own institutional setup 17 or sometimes 27 Sometimes 25

38:19 Governments have to agree. The whole, I mean... I can't believe it goes on for that long. Is he doing stand-up? What is the deal?! He's basically saying you're screwed we have no idea how we're gonna fix it That's what he's saying! Literally this is.. It goes on for 20 more seconds And to convince their own often lukewarm public opinions and parliaments as a result The speed of our decision making is not always up to expectations. We have no decisions to make! We are not a state, we are a union and from the start we have worked on two fronts

38:57 Combating the immediate crisis and ensuring it never happens again. Okay, well good luck with that Heiko Hermann So it seems like this is the week where we're you know for some reason Maybe he felt felt like there's too much attention on American politics You know let's do something messed up over here I have such a list of bad things in Euro land right now Well, first of all the current decommissioned Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte you know they have their elections on the 12th because the cabinet fell and it looks like this socialist party is going to win big in this one which is quite a swing. And of course that's not gonna work for the pedophiles of the Christian Democrats who run the justice system so something's gotta happen there we can't have

39:50 the Socialist Party winning. But he said, if I am reelected and we're back in power and I am a reelected prime minister, we will not give any more aid to Greece now is just causing trouble. And that's that's a pretty big statement to say for someone who potentially could or could not be back in power in one of the kind of important sideline important to eurozone countries. Yeah, no funny thing is there's a bunch of people saying that Greece will be kicked out It seems almost I mean with this you know this because they want two extra

40:35 two extra years to pay off the debt, which is of course not really debt. It's money that's fake debt they've been set up. Yeah that's going to the banks and they know it yeah so you know That's why the troika literally the elites IMF and the world in the European Central Bank They say well if you guys work for a six day a week we'll consider it That's just crazy. Well the funny, the next step in this of course is the Spanish who are smart enough as a people and of course when I was back there if you remember yeah in Madrid hanging out with Garcia and the boys they robbed you they already were on their way to taking all their money out of these banks they don't trust the bank so they essentially unbeknownst

41:18 World news media the Spanish banks have been essentially drained of all their there were no money There's been a virtual run on the bank. Yeah, and they've They're completely that all the banks are Dave as far as I can tell there's no money in any you're in any Spanish Bank Except you know fake money so it was no real. There's no real money So today? There's a big meeting at the European Central Bank And today was the day when the ECB is supposed to say what they're going to do. So that's why Haiku Herman was out there, oh it's really hard! The choices are buying up Spain and Italy's government bonds short term which is basically monetizing your debt isn't that kind of what we do? Do I have the patent on that

42:11 We've gotten it down. Yeah, the fine art But that's something that the ECB was never supposed to do right and they said they would never would do I think it's in the charter but of course is They have they can employ something called exceptional measures if there's some kind of horrible problem So you know but if they have to do Spain and Italy There's no way there's not enough money in the bank so to speak I don't think to actually do that And then France, meanwhile is being real quiet over there in the corner. But Dexia was it not Dexia? The what's the name of their mortgage lender? CIF, Crédit Immobilier de France they were nationalized. Yeah. Whoops! That's isn't that something like the same as kind of like a bailout

43:04 Well, we actually yeah. We do that to our banks too. We nationalize banks constantly when we take them over Usually we read to leave the actual eyes and I mean it's not as a process you mean through the FDIC is that? Yeah, we grabbed the bank We grab the bank its assets and then we reorganized the bank then put it back into business Essentially, I think that's what they're doing right but I can prove that Armageddon is upon us I hate to say it Is it raining frogs Oh No almost as bad So I'm watching CNBC. You know, I watch three stations all the time. CNN because they get the script and no one else gives a crap and you can pull great clips no one's heard because no one watches

43:47 I'm always watching C-SPAN, one two or three depending on what's going on and CNBC until they start rerunning you know how to make money with marijuana or whatever. Right the marijuana special! It's either hookers of marijuana at night on CNBC. How many times are we gonna watch this marijuana special? Drug Nation or whatever it's called and there's Maria Bartiromo who of course is the original Money Honey and yeah she setting up to intro her next guest And when her next guest came on, I knew that Armageddon. is upon us. A major shareholder in a public company, John!

44:47 Kim Kardashian. Oh, I turn it off called Boldface which is a celebrity beauty licensing company Yeah Please go look at the bold face which i think its pink slip Its trading for 37 cents This is she's major shareholder in public company What's the name of this again? Bold Face Hold on ill give you You have the symbol yeah yeah yeah It's BLBK It's over-the counter Let's see what down is again. It was actually down today, I looked this morning it was down upon yes its 36 cents down 10% on the great news that Kim Kardashian is now a major shareholder. Kim joins me now along with Boldface CEO Nicole Astoria and Kim it's good to have you on the program thank you so much for joining us. Thank you for having me.

45:35 We should tell our audience that normally... Wait a minute, hold on a second. It's not only just over the counter it's OTCBB What does that mean? That's bulletin board The BB is like... Hey you got any of this stock I don't know some guy posted he wants to sell 10 shares for three bucks You want to buy it out or do you have to call him So you can't even trade it for like real? Yeah, yeah. No you could trade it but you have to go through the B Bulletin Board system which is like one of the lowest of the lowest... It's almost a laughable stock exchange. It's really uh..it's hard doing it. Here's what exactly like this I come up to you and hey Adam Can you break a 20? Sure what do you need

46:26 I need a couple tens or ten and bunch of ones. And that's our trade? We've just done it, that was it? Yeah yeah there is... That's the bulletin board trade! I'm looking for...I'm looking financials they have no financial they reported nothing this total bullcrap this is like a Kanye what does who did that pump-and-dump scheme Oh Kanye West? It's amazing to me so all faces on Pico Boulevard suite A in Santa Monica Have they filed anything? I don't see any filing. Yeah, I got some stuff here You got a filing you gotta file looking for us in AK or so if you go to their website This is they're real serious They've got Mario Lopez as well Money money in the bank okay Here's what they here's what their business is so far Their revenue appears to be okay. They've lost

47:16 But they lost money? They've lost $78,000. Oh my gosh! On no sales. At what is it 443 in the afternoon we do not see this kind of a crowd here at the New York Stock Exchange but for some reason a lot of traders stuck around so thank you everyone. Thank you Amy man So that was bad. I'm like, wow there's nothing to talk about? What Maria Bartiromo should have done is and here's Adam Curry you've probably heard of him he was once the man from Headbangers Ball He now has a co-host The Best Podcast in the Universe with John C. Dworak and he accurately predicted

48:01 Facebook would be a $17 stock within five months. Welcome, Adam Curry." And we could have had a conversation and no instead she has Kim Kardashian and then she asked him the following... And you know it's interesting because retail has been so hot on Wall Street actually so as a burgeoning businesswoman that you are what's your take on what people want? What is your take on the economy right now? What is your take on Kim Kardashian? Are you kidding me?! She's asking her... A woman promoting a company that doesn't even sell anything and they have $78,000 in general administrative expenses and that's their operating loss. I guess they're taking some investments so their net income is minus 2.1 million on no sales. And so she asked... I'm looking at this. Yes yes and she asks this burgeoning businesswoman about what she feels about the state of the economy? The state of the... She asked Kim Kardashian about the state of the economy

48:59 All I can think about is the state of her boutee. This is crazy! This is why Armageddon is upon us. This is Maria Bartiromo, she talks to major CEOs She's usually kind of tough, I have to say. You know she knows her business...I like her How does he get wrangled into this crap? He got wrangled into it by the way, but by the same suits at General Electric who know what they're kind of know what they're doing because they just you know besides having a buddy in the White House Obama apparently the Pentagon just gave General Electric one of the biggest contracts in the history of the world and its like

49:36 No one's saying, hey where is the conflict of interest here? This is a scam. Oh because Jeffrey Immelt was on the President's advisory board He's beer drinking buddies with Obama and golfing. He's drinking that crap crab beer they throw some honey in Of course well that how it works By the way this what I heard, we have to eventually get to the Democratic National Convention This is what I heard consistently as the message Is government and business working together? That is what we're all about. I'm like government and business working together isn't that fascism It's exactly this is fascism Isn't that exactly not what you're supposed to have is is I mean To me it's like wow, I can't believe what I'm hearing a lot of weird stuff By the way, a lot of weird stuff happened Like what well in the afternoon

50:39 Because you know, this is the Democratic Party's like their big get-together and they have a platform. You know the platform is here's what we stand for and everyone has to vote on it and sign off on doesn't matter because you have the people who think that they're part of the party are just you know peons until they had to add an amendment at the very last minute because there was no reference to God Yeah, well they took... it was a reference to Guy... I know this story too because actually they discussed it ad nauseum on some of these talk shows but

51:17 God was referred to in the 2008 platform and it was just pulled out for some unknown reason. And they wouldn't say why, and the other thing of course is that Jerusalem as the capital of Israel was also in the 2008 platform I don't know why that's even in the platform but it was...and they pulled that out because Obama doesn't think that's true or shouldn't be true or its a... Well no! Here's here's the interesting thing because it was put back in specifically at the request of the president. Yeah, that's what they say even though we know that we've been following this when this has come up in in in the Daily Press conference and and no one will answer the question now all of a sudden it's really important That I guess we have to get the Jewish vote but the thing that was just funny is that

52:10 There was no clear majority and it was like, it was so embarrassing. I'm sure you've seen the video by now of this vote if not, I'd love to play you the audio because It's even better when you cannot hear the difference between the yeas and the nays As a chair, I come before you today to discuss two important matters related to our party's national platform an ordained United Methodist minister by the way you and I could have done this as ordained a universal life church ministers yes, yeah. I am here to attest and affirm that our faith in belief in God is central to the American story and informs the values we've expressed in our parties platform in addition

52:54 President Obama recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and our party's platform should as well. Mr Chairman, I have submitted my amendment in writing and i believe it is being projected on this screen... Yeah for like three milliseconds And by the way there were a lot of Arab American Democrats they were holding up signs proud American Arab American Democrat And they were voting against Israel, Jerusalem being recognized as the capital of Israel. I presume this is because of the Palestine issue? Yeah Right So but now listen to the vote For the delegates to see... ...I move adoption of the amendment as submitted and shown to the delegates A motion has been made! Is there a second?! Is there any further discussion!?

53:50 Hearing none the matter requires a two-thirds vote in the affirmative now, so 2 thirds votes So the affirmative would have to be significantly 30% loud 33 percent I might point out thirty three percent louder all those delegates in favor say aye All those delegates opposed Say no What do you think? No to me. In opinion of the... Oops! Let me do that again I think it has to be twice as loud not 33% because you have... It's two-thirds. It has to be two thirds? If you think about the... Yeah, that's a 2 thirds to one third. So two third is twice as loud! So i'm measuring this on my DB meters actually let me get the actual DB meter hold on we can have this no it had to be twice as loud it's not twice as loud in fact it's not even as loud the nose have it

54:49 But it has to be twice as loud. So the nose, I don't think that the nose had it on the twice as loud... No! To pass it has to be twice as loud In other words, it didn't pass Ohhhh! I see what you're saying Okay well I'm going to get the VU meters here so we can listen again and I am going to measure it because they do it again All of those delegates in favor say aye All those delegates opposed say no So not only is it louder The nose are louder on my VU meters And now the dude's like, Dude what am I doing? We're supposed to pass this crap. And now some official with a badge and you know like a star and an armband comes on stage. I guess... You just let them do what they gotta do. Let them do it they're gonna fight it out! Because we don't give a crap

55:54 One more time. I'll do that one more time all right, then I'm gonna measure all those delegates in favor By the way here like come on say yeah And he's gonna and so no you know it was like you know kind of steering the crowd there All those delegates opposed say no In the opinion of the chair two-thirds have voted in the affirmative The motion is adopted And the platform has been amended as shown on the screen. It's rigged! Thank you very much. You should be ashamed of yourselves. The thing was Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who is the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee she immediately

56:38 Has been she was on every single show and I don't know. I mean who decided to do her hair and makeup for the convention should literally be knifed She looks like a raccoon Her hair looks like a bird's nest is horrible, I mean it and particularly in the light last night The light was coming from above she looked like freaking Frankenstein It was really, anyway. So she's out there this is a non-issue and she has to play it down as very embarrassing that the and this is basically just an anti-Israeli probably anti-Semitic party I don't know what's going on but

57:21 big elephant in the room so to speak. It was a disaster that whole episode and by the way it reminds me of something I heard later at the on, i guess it was last night which I clipped as the summary of the Democratic Convention but for some reason it harkens back to this moment let me guess I can't hear you! So I guess that is the summary of the convention. That's probably it, I can't hear you! Vote until you vote right slaves? You're not doing it right and then there was um and this is with the whole thing just very very interesting did you see him taking down the flag no I didn't see there was a moment I was watching just the C-SPAN feeds so it's a live feed in by the way I told us to JC as we were watching this last night

58:13 That the director of the pool you know that people have to realize this is very good because I've been wondering about this myself Yeah, go ahead. I think the director because they use pool cameras and pull mics and everything You know all the other people just grab that feed Because they can't allow it have everyone have their own cameras there like they used to back well Well, they do have their own spot And then you know so they get they have a spot but they take from the pool in the pools. I'm convinced that the pool feed guy, whoever they hired is a Republican because he is shooting the ugliest people. I don't care what kind of crowd you've got there are some beautiful women and great looking people in any audience not at the DNC no they have got people with one tooth they have got people who are drooling and old ladies shaking

59:04 Quake? It's unbelievable. But enough about Bill and the O'Bidens, let's just... So here's the video though that also like, I just like when I heard this. I was like hmm and and and i'm getting to a point with this whole thing because there was some really interesting stuff that happened uh when I saw that when I heard this video I'm like this is... When people hear this and agree with this yeah there's a fundamental difference in how we think about The United States. We are committed We do believe you can use government in a good way. Government is the only thing that we all belong to. Okay, government is the only thing that we all belong to?

59:48 Now you can interpret that in multiple ways Yeah, I didn't like that either. When i heard that was like really actually and different churches different clubs But we're together as a part of our city or our county or our state And our nation yeah nation. I just don't like the We all belong to the government. It just it didn't sound didn't sit right with me but here here was the interesting thing so Bill Clinton And I'm watching this with Ms. Mickey, by the way. Bill Clinton comes out wearing So much makeup. That's the fruit we're like Mickey's like oh my god, they pancake the man There's an inch of makeup on his face because we know he's not looking good so and they've sprayed him They've literally also did they had to pump them up with something to get him out there? I that's very possible I think as he was he was it was he will he was up you analyze it as he was doing a Adderall cuz we actually JC And I have been studying black preacher

1:00:50 techniques and he is the first black president because this was a black Church sermon it was set up like it was structured like a black church sermon It was it was in its persuasive like a black church sermon you can watch these some of these sermon isers on On the dish network and elsewhere, and I'll tell you this. It was as good as it gets in that regard And the blacks were all eating it up because they've heard this before They liked the style of talking and the whites who were like In the camera guy showed us They were like completely blown away by this crazy man going on about this and that It was the guy, I thought he performed quite well.

1:01:40 I don't know if you got any clips. Did you think by the way he did use call and response a lot which is a classic like there were you explain calling response all in response to where you essentially in the church it's always you dadada amen right they all yell Amen and then they you know you do have them yet something involved with the process and Clinton was doing this something about former I forgot what the response was but he had two or three of those several times several times yeah um and I caught him lying Like a really, really big one. Oh I listened to that speech and didn't research any of the bull crap but there was stuff that just didn't make any sense Do you want to hear the biggest lie that i heard during the entire? I clipped it Alright But I wanna say one thing To the American people I want you to listen to me Im gonna say this again I did not have sexual relations with that woman Miss Lewinsky

1:02:34 I never told anybody to lie, not a single time. Never! These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people." I just want to make sure everyone heard that because, I'm looking at the guy and I can't stop thinking about that! I just can't... Yeah! That's all i'm thinking about is he stood there and lied really really really really lied not about world war not about killing people not about stealing your money but where he put his penis He couldn't even be truthful about THAT That's what so sad about his life, and you know and all the other stuff. So anyway before we get into the I have one little We're still talking about Clinton. I want to mention this one. I thought I don't know if this was a Freudian slip or what but as a gaffe And it's on my listers Captain Medicare yeah, so if he's elected and if he does what he promised to do

1:03:37 Medicare will now grow broke in 2016. He said, grow broke! That's what I heard too Pelosi also, they're like robots up there. You think you'd hear yourself make that gaffe because you know as well I do when you're reading something and you make a gaffe like sometimes correct it because you do hear yourself when you talk. Yeah yeah. Well Pelosi was very scary. Oh so this one from Pelosi? She got the Pelosi one where she says...she says..well you'll here it now but I emphasize by replaying it and this is what she said and she's just completely...she's almost senile right now

1:04:19 And our democracy is on the ballot. Democrats believe we must curb the influence of special interest on our political institutions. Democrats believe we must create jobs, not protect the special interests We must build the economy from the middle out Not top down From the middle out I probably more conservative leaning in general than liberal. Although you recall that we fell in love because I told her she was a nutball thinking Obama was going to change everything and she called me jaded, and then it was... We lived happily ever after so she's is so she watched Romney and everything and she watched Anne Romney. She watched Michelle Obama. She watched Bill Clinton and after that

1:05:31 It may be my socialist upbringing in the Netherlands, but when I hear that how we can all have an equal shot and we're going to be a nation. We're going to pull together because it really feels really good to me. It feels like the right way to go." And of course I said, well that's why you're not allowed to vote because you're a freaking foreigner. So shut up, slut! She appreciated that as a joke too by the way. But I was trying to think...I was trying to come up with it with the appropriate response and i think maybe the fallacy is if

1:06:11 If everyone literally were equal, which it's impossible. I have an advantage for a number of reasons because I'm healthy because I have longer legs or whatever it is or I do have inherently three points higher IQ you can't have everyone they can all have the exact same equal shot and opportunity And I think when that happens, then 99% of the people are going to take advantage of having the fair shot and a late kickback and drink some beer. I mean help me explain why that system has not worked in America ergo has not really been implemented to that degree? Do you understand what i'm trying to say? No, I have no clue what you're talking about. Just kind of babbling. Oh come on!

1:07:05 I don't know what you, you know the idea that we're...I mean this the basic idea is that you have a equal opportunity not that your equal. I mean, that's what the theory is with the system. Everyone has the same shot but some people obviously you can't dunk a basketball if your not tall enough But you could try! So what does that even mean? Getting the same shot What does that mean? That means somebody doesn't look at you and say Oh... Which by the way which is the irony of what im going to explain The irony of this whole thing from the same-shot perspective Someone looks at you with your long legs And someone who looks short says

1:07:45 this person with the short legs is a disadvantage to you so I'm gonna give them an advantage by giving them more money or i'm gonna oh you know these people are that this whole group of people they're really dumb. So, uh... I am going to give them the jobs isn't it worth hiring people in the justice department we read on one of those shows recently? Yeah yeah! They have a marked handicap to you, so I'm going to give them the job instead of you. Thank You! That's the way this system works yes but that's unfairness of it is exactly that because is not my fault that my legs are taller or shorter what do I don't think but I should be given the same opportunity well you can't you know okay got an opportunity to dunk a basketball can't do it so you don't get that job right we don't get that job there's other things to do

1:08:37 But you have an opportunity to dunk the basketball if you want. Well anyway, so then I figured out of course there's only one correct response and with her it would actually work So say you know why that? You know why that's not the way it's supposed to go? And said all we have to do is go back and read Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand Then get back to me And tell me how that's gonna work out. That is a great way to kill the conversation and by the way, so I'm watching this convention... I didn't realize that Ayn Rand is running the Republican Party! I am going through the roll call and the guy from Kansas, which is I couldn't watch much of it so you're not gonna get more than two clips on him. In fact they have two roll call clips and why was there even a roll call?

1:09:27 And in this great state of California they had Pelosi and Feinstein and that idiot Senator Barbara Boxer up there yakking away about the golden state. And we give our 700 votes to Obama! So they had two that were interesting to me, which I'll get through because you brought it up with Atlas Shrugged Uh, one is... let's see where is it? It's the uh... SimRand? Is that the one? No no. That one's the second one. Okay The first one is... First roll call! How about that? Yeah roll call play it okay 80 votes! Oh wait stop hold on a second I want to set this up

1:10:06 This woman comes on and talks about Barry Goldwater. She literally gets cut off, anyway go on. Oh But Barry Goldwater failed right? He did not... He was a Republican for starters but this is the one of it Both parties always have some turncoat that they get from the other party and they bring him out And this girl was just she was wasted or stoned or something I don't know what her problem is 80 votes Madam Secretary, Arizona is the Grand Canyon State and has produced some fabulous politicians on both parties. One includes my grandfather Barry Goldwater I'm Cece Goldwater My grandfather was recognized for a political party at today

1:11:07 Really? Oh, there's someone like making the cut-cut sign. That's why she's laughing. You gotta listen to the end. Take a penny! On behalf of the Arizona delegation I want to cast 77 votes for Arizona, for Barack Obama the next president. Did you do that fade on that clip? That's interesting

1:11:48 You've been working hard, man. I'm impressed. So now this is the guy from Kansas and he goes on about a bunch of other Republicans that were so great before in the day... And then he throws this blockbuster out there! ...and Bob Dole whose moderation and common sense wisdom have been repudiated by the Republican Party by the extremism of Ayn Rand, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck Sam Brownback. Alcomords List! And the Koch Brothers

1:12:26 Because we're not Republicans. That's... No, of course not! But that's... Well neither was Ayn Rand. I know! When did Ayn Rand... When is Ayn Rand running the Republic? She's dead you idiot! Come on throw a podcaster a bone man. I mean come on You know it should be like let's try that again. And Bob Dole whose moderation and common sense wisdom have been repudiated by the Republican Party and replaced by the extremism of Ayn Rand, the best podcast in the universe! Sam Brownback and The Koch Brothers. Perfect, perfect that's better. People would have been like hey what I gotta check out that best you know what you know what's wrong with these people there's too much fluoride in their beer that's what's going on there it's really really really really sad

1:13:20 So yeah, but you know the whole the whole show is it's understandable that and by the way so tonight The president here. Here's you want to talk about okay now are we? Arguably some of the smartest television programming consultants in the world you and I arguably do we have the experience? I don't even think it's arguable. I mean go ahead We have we have power tools for the job. We know how to do everything tonight the President who was going for reelection is speaking to the nation now. I'll tell you that the The ratings were in as like 30 million people watch this it's not bad You know, it's across all all channels So it's an aggregate 30 million people watching this and of course when the president speaks tonight? I think he'll he could hit 40 50 million people watching easy It's gonna be a big deal

1:14:16 I think by the way it's interesting they pulled him out of the Bank of America Center. Yeah So they're gonna make me speak in The same hall because it might rain and that would be hilarious if we did and by the way Did you notice during Clinton speech that they kept shooting? They began to pool guy from the feed yeah kept shooting Michelle Glowery She does not like Bill Clinton no so if you were too If you were to choose, if you had like a big award show. What would the day be that you would not program it? I'll just give you a hint Do you think he would have it on the same night that the president is addressing the nation? No, I wouldn't do that! Well they are tonight is video music awards Wait wait... Are you telling me that youth will be watching MTV instead of their hero Obama

1:15:17 I don't know. I don't think MTV has done a very smart move with this, but they're trying to put some alternative programming up there? Last night they had Clinton up against the football game. Actually, I think they delayed the game didn't they? No, I don't think so. Whatever the case... I would not have recommended that as a strategy No. I don't think that's a good idea. Well, you know Putin is doing something or was doing something similar...I want to talk about this later but But I do track down Hillary which I promised I'd do in the newsletter and found out where she went It was very difficult to find her schedule. I don't know if you know where she has been or where she is now Of course I do! She was in China

1:16:01 And she was in China, in particular being very disappointed. I got a clip of her being disappointed if you want to hear that? Well, I've got a bunch of different clips of her. It depends on what news source you're dealing with. Russia Today casts her in a very negative light. Before you play her being disappointed, play the Russia Today Hillary just a little intro and see what they are thinking. The Russians do not like this administration and they are reflecting it in their news coverage Now it's a warning not to meddle in regional affairs. That was the greeting in Beijing for Washington's top diplomat ahead of our visit Secretary of State Hillary Clinton urged Southeast Asian nations to work together to resolve territorial disputes in the South China Sea while Zia Wei Cheng from the Renmin University of China says US involvement is only spawning tensions

1:16:51 Right, so then and by the way her hair looked fabulous. She was flipping it as she's walking around It was very nicely brushed it was all shiny now she had you know someone did something while she was over there? It is no secret that we have been disappointed by Russia and China's actions blocking tougher UN Security Council resolutions We hope to continue to unite behind a real path forward, to end the violence in Syria. Yeah, blahdy-blahdy-blah. Here's the funny thing... So they I guess the Republican consultants

1:17:42 And if it could be a number of people, but here's here Here was the breaking news this morning that trending on Twitter during Bill Clinton speech was Hillary 2016 That that was the trending hashtag and they left it up Of course instead of pulling it down like they do stuff. They don't like in Twitter If you look at the people who are it so hijacked It's such a PR move But it's a brilliant one and I and I don't know if it was the Republicans or if it was you know, the Clintons and I could have... is there a difference actually? But i think it was brilliant to really move it away from everything and say oh everyone wants Hillary in 2016 that's what Bill speech was about. Look at it! Hillary 2016 hashtag pound number sign brilliant PR hijack brilliant whoever did that when they're trying to make that the big headline news but I don't know if

1:18:44 It was kind of the, this morning was kind of the big news for a while. Well since we're on the topic so you your assertion is Hillary's trip was to China? She was in China, then she was in East Timor. Are you telling me that she went through a quantum leap and was not there? No, she's all over the place... no, she was there but apparently bouncing all over the places and got more places to go than anything else to stay out of the convention fray But last show we mentioned that we did have a clip again from a foreign broadcast about that she is headed to Vladivostok Oh right! Right, right because yep

1:19:25 uh... love ross yeah i know what the fact is she's going to the big the giant a pick for him this is the biggest news that not does not mean covering this country but let's get the land which i'll get you have trade take a look at hillary's schedule korea tv actually had her whole schedule lined up play plays it as part of clinton six nation tour that started on august thirtieth and has so far taken her to the cook islands and indonesia She's due to leave Beijing tonight for East Timor and will follow that with visits to Brunei and Russia. I knew she was in the Cook Islands, because on the particular island where she was staying there were no cars. All of the locals said that she can't be driving her car around. We're not going to have that! So I knew about East Timor but didn't know she'd do a six-nation tour

1:20:19 Yeah, and she's also I think she got her hair done in the Cook Islands because that's a tourist place with has a lot of fancy Dynamite have to say it was you know nice and shiny so what's APEC? Okay, so play the Korean news that you will not hear in the United States even though there is coverage but it's way downplayed. APEC...but play this clip and then I'll explain. Well APEC foreign and trade ministers have been meeting in Vladivostok in Russia's Far East ahead of the APEC summit that will take place this weekend Key discussion topics proposed by Russia included removing trade barriers, deeper regional integration and improvements to transport infrastructure and food security. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said ahead of the APEC summit that cooperation with Asia-Pacific countries will be important for the development of Russia's Siberia and the Far East

1:21:11 Russia hosts the APEC meeting in the Pacific port of Vladivostok and has pumped 21 billion US dollars into the city of 600,000 people ahead of the event. Wow okay. 21 billion so this is a big show? This is a big show it's essentially Screw you USA for not letting Russia or China in on the Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership plan. So they've decided to start if they've been doing this a peck every so often. This is the Asia Pacific economic cooperation Forum, this is their own club is what this is This is a huge and it's big and everyone you like every leader is gonna be there This is that makes you know these places like Davos look ridiculous especially all the money They're throwing at it And I mean the guild

1:22:08 Gilroy, what's her name from Australia? I mean all the... everyone is going to be there except Obama. Except Obama right because he has got some other little thing he is doing Yeah but he could still show up on the weekend if he doesn't show it will be amazing They are snubbing each other and this a major thing so they are sending Hillary and that's what the debt reference to uh... felt a lot of us talk was last week on the democracy now even though nobody explained what's really going on this ridiculous event which is just a apparently a real i'd popper they built the bridge to know where to do this on an islanded pumped up but in addition to this is like their own their own united nations thing and look at it as what you know this is like

1:22:53 This is like one of those G20 things or some, you know, one of these major economic things that we throw together and then we control. The Russians are finally fed up with it and so they're doing this thing and their whole idea is to set Vladivostok as their East or West I'm sorry east Asian outpost so it's gonna be like a separate country and it's going to be doing all that It's gonna organize all the just gonna compete with Shanghai. So here's in Hong Kong Here's the members Australia Brunei Canada Chile People's Republic of China, Hong Kong China Indonesia Japan Republic of Korea Malaysia Mexico New Zealand Mexico really how did they get in the Asia Pacific?

1:23:39 They're the ones who they're setting up, you know we are people are setting up these large ports in Mexico. Well we are a member here it's yeah We're not sending our you know we're sending Hillary so I mean that she she's pretty powerful yes well She might be the next president for all you know but whatever the case is she's gonna Be there to try this just if this isn't this is about The Russians get irked by us snubbing them left and right. But the Russians are not trustworthy, that's why they get snubbed! Hey man did you see Putin? Did you see what he was doing man? Did you see him? The most awesome president in the universe? I forget there was something with his shirt off again... Vladimir Putin with his new best friend, the Siberian crane

1:24:25 Preparing to go where no president has gone before. For his latest action man stunt, he'd stopped off at the remote Yamal Peninsula in Russia's far north on his way to the APEC summit in Vladivostok The leader of a nation of 140 million people, he was trying to persuade five rather reluctant cranes to fly south for the winter. The Siberian crane is close to extinction and this group had been born in captivity Despite his carefully cultivated all-Russian hero image the president did not fly the microlight aircraft by himself An expert pilot sat just behind him at all times during the flight

1:25:11 Among other things the Russian public have seen Vladimir Putin boxing, swimming in a Siberian river and riding bare-chested on a horse. And despite the waning opinion polls and the fact that he is 60 next month He clearly still believes these television picture opportunities are important part of his enduring popularity I say take that Obama Let's see Hillary bear chested riding a horse. Okay, take that! The guy I mean he is not flying the micro light it is very obvious that the guy behind him was flying but he is in white suit and on his way to APEC let me just grab some geese while I am on my way to APEC come on man That's an awesome dude That's a man right there Don't you feel like he should be your president? He can do anything to prove he isn't gay

1:26:05 And there's that of course. I mean he was like talking to birds, I don't know By the way that is a video in the show notes 441.nashownotes.com It is fantastic He has got the camera mounted on front of micro light and he is real serious Like Zorro Yeah, he definitely is uh I'm impressed. What did what he's must be really on the testosterone? Way up. I'm impressed. I really really really wasn't proud thought it was funny my god God the guy is good guys Good can you say he is good one more before we get to break this was a Now this was very interesting over if you've been watching this

1:26:55 You've actually brought my attention to it about the organics guys and what they're you know that the organics guys are behind a lot of the Labeling stuff and because really right we have a proposition coming up in the election Yeah, I think it's 37 or 32 37 anyway They're trying to there. They're going after organic food in all kinds of different ways And this is just to try to get people used to the fact they won't be able to... I think it's because these same people that are selling organic food, yes. Are gonna have to get used to the fact that they're not going to just casually use the label anymore so they're gonna try to smear organic food by saying various things now one of the things their most recent event of course is this all these news stories about how you know a study from Dartmouth Let me play the report cuz i have the report and then we can discuss

1:27:47 Since 1997, US sales of organic foods have increased from $3.6 billion to $26.7 billion dollars Although prices vary consumers can pay up to twice as much for organic than conventional foods But when it comes to nutrition are organics worth it? The answer is no according to a study published in the annals of internal medicine In our study we did not find substantial differences nutritional content of organic compared to conventional foods. In the study, the authors reviewed 237 previously published studies comparing organic and conventional food and its effects The study also examined pesticide exposure from both foods In our study we found that organic produce was about 30 percent less likely to be contaminated by pesticide residues

1:28:36 However, we found differences in risks of exceeding maximum allowed limits between the groups were small. The study examined the risk for bacterial contamination between conventional and organic foods We did not find significant differences in bacterial contamination between the two groups For example bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella I'd like to give my view on this before you jump in because you know a lot more about it So you already kind of set it up by saying, the latest is this news report where they're trying to smear organics. And there's a lot of people saying oh, this was Stanford and they're paid for by Cargill and Monsanto. I think...I see it a little differently. I believe that this study is correct and my personal belief is that the stuff that is being sold as organic to you sheep is crap

1:29:29 That's why I think this report is correct. I think that what Whole Foods has and Trader Joe's it's crap That's what I think What do you think John? Well, I don't know if that's my first of all I think the whole reports based on a false premise that people buy organic food And by the way, I think is non-existent This premise is bogus premise People are buying organic food because its health because more nutritious Do you buy when you buy an organic? tomato as opposed to an inorganic. I don't buy organic, I buy my tomatoes from the farmer. Let's say if you're a buyer of organic food are you buying it because it is more nutritious? No I'm buying it because its more expensive that why... I know what's better for me. General this is bogus your just throwing stuff out there

1:30:15 The point, the people are buying organic food generally speaking. If I have a choice and sometimes i'll buy organic, it means sometimes its too expensive but sometimes ill buy because I know its gonna taste better Its just a matter of quality Some of these heirloom tomatoes are just going to be better than the crap tomatoes you get at Safeway But that said So in other words the whole thing is based on a false premise which is that people are buying for nutritional reasons. I don't see that but let's take a look at the actual report that was done. They did a... They took 200 existing reports and compared those. Right, and they made another report out of that which is kind of weird. It's bogative! That's what I do. It's bogative but they have an executive summary with a conclusion Yes okay Now it seems to me the conclusion is only two sentences It's really not much Is not a news story No

1:31:11 And I will read the conclusion as provided by the people who actually wrote the report and put it out there. We can read it together. The published literature lacks strong evidence that organic foods are significantly more nutritious than conventional foods. Consumption of organic foods may reduce exposure to pesticide residues and antibiotic resistant bacteria That's it! Big story!! So there's no story here. Breaking news, breaking news! Alert Alex Jones! I get more hate mail from the Alex Jones fans... so this is bogative to say the least and you know i even traced a whole movement back to a report that was done on uh they tried it but think about all right but think about this so why

1:32:04 Because it literally exploded. And yes, it was the Ranger Joes and Alex Jones and the natural new net news work daily everyone's like this is outrageous. Organic or shmorganic. You know, it's just a branding. It's you know in I think I said it before In the Netherlands they call it biological which I think is even funnier because everything's biological and you pay more for it! It is bull crap To me this organic thing is big organic. It's now become just another industry and they got pesticides... That's what Michael Pollan calls it, it's big organic. Whole Foods is responsible for a good part of it

1:32:51 And you go to Whole Foods and I, you know they're organic. I mean look, I would never buy vegetables there right? They all look like they're just manufactured...they look the same stuff but get it safe way of these big Publix. Only more expensive and therefore must be great! And I go to the farmers market. They can't put organic labels on anything there because they don't go through the paperwork and that stuff is all fantastic, and you can ask them if they use pesticides and they'll say well we have too because there's worms in the field or we don't. You know what? It's even better We visit some of our farmers and they say hey why don't you come take a look at how we do our chickens Yeah! And we go out and take a look and you know what? Chickens look freaking happy

1:33:33 Chicken going like, bop-bop-bop walking around. And I go, that chicken looks happy man! And then you see the processing and everything... ...and THAT is how you know what your eating is good Unfortunately, you know it's not gonna work that way for all the slaves. Well not only that but the government doesn't like the idea and neither do these big companies they don't like to... For one thing they don't like these guys You can't sell eggs in California anymore unless you go through a huge bureaucracy to get approval for an egg Really? Yes! It is very hard to get good yard eggs. You have to have your own chickens Hmm and at the farmers market you can get eggs or you can't do that? It's you can with the guys of who are licensed to sell eggs I mean we had, I went over to there. We have a winery in the middle of Martinez California that for once in awhile visit

1:34:23 And I was over there the other day because they have a lot of fruit from their trees and they sell some reasonably tasty inexpensive wines because they won some huge settlement against Shell Oil some years earlier. They own all the land outright, so they lowball everybody. So I said to her, are you having any eggs? And, because they always sell eggs. They used to anyway years ago and she says no we can't sell eggs anymore because there's a new health code deal and we have to go this it's too much trouble even though they have all these eggs It's too much trouble To sell eggs because of the paperwork You know what this is John? Yeah cause if you're going after the eggs you know what your really going after don't ya The chickens! It's the war on chicken my friend that's why... The War On Chicken

1:35:14 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! I would start off with an anonymous donation from someone which is we can say that every day. I suppose $100. Steven Woolard from Victoria BC also comes with a hundred dollars and don't see a comment here Alan Cavito or Cavito or Cavato or Cavito in Virginia another hundred dollars there heard Adam on Twitter was so impressed that it felt compared to donate Compelled not compared, but compelled I said compared yes But you meant elf. I meant I meant growth

1:36:00 Leo even named the twit episode after Adam zombie gun and I sounded so much more knowledgeable and authoritative than he does on no agenda No $100 why is that? Why was that made because he was interacting with a lawyer a publisher a podcast empresario And other big shots oh it seems that kind of that kind of crowd brings out the best in Adam hmm But what made me go to the computer to kick out some cash was that Adam managed to get a slide flute blow into the proceedings. So I sounded really intelligent but because i got a slide whistle in my head, that's why he is donating? Yeah uh-huh well thats our listeners Well guess what it ain't gonna happen anymore I don't think so Franklin Kaczynski and Racine Wisconsin 89 81

Most of the guests that would be me or know-nothing bloggers from California That would be me Thank you very much. Adam on twit sounds like a seasoned businessman talking to a bunch of naive college kids I don't think they ribbed Adam too bad on the show But then I read an article that showed a bunch of tweets that made Leo made afterwards, and sad to say I'm done

1:39:02 I remember blah, blah, blah. Adam is not about the Twitch show in these notes okay? Adam seemed like a real down to earth person and Leo didn't. I have an excellent pork verde burrito at a little place in Petaluma Okay. That's enough.

1:47:47 Okay, if you can There's a man because of your layaway plan you have made it to the finish line in time To get yourself the official no agenda night ring that is before the end of 2012 Thank you so much for supporting. The best podcast in the universe and I hereby pronounce the night of the new agenda roundtable Hookers and blow for you my friend or rent boys in Chardonnay whatever you prefer it's here because you are a knight. I'm sorry, that is what we get for jumping all over Clinton yeah well yes the devil himself It is! That's karma that's negative karma We totally deserve all that Since we're doing this I got one last Clinton clip I'll bring up Oh really?

1:48:41 Clinton on jobs. I just wanted you talked about him being a liar this is a lie, okay? But they're already more than 3 million jobs open and unfilled in America mostly because The people who apply for them don't yet have the required skills to do them now. I think it's cuz they're overqualified isn't it No, no. It's because there are jobs that require a PhD and they want you to work for four bucks an hour Yeah And the people who are going to apply for those jobs are four buck-an-hour workers not somebody who really has the skills needed to do the job Not only that but we had this thing about six months ago This is what triggered my taking this clip Fortunately I did see it was a letter that came in where a guy explained he was head of HR at some big company He says that they normally

1:49:31 keep a bunch of bogus jobs posted that they never intend to fulfill. And why is that? They're either collecting just dossiers or they just look like they're more active than they are, sometimes it's to confuse the competition Just to look busy perhaps Yeah So there's a lot of bogus jobs uh...that are posted and probably the three million he's talking about aren't really jobs I mean this is just You know, he's either naive which seems unlikely or he doesn't care. Here's what I don't understand... I don't get it So what i understood is there were three million jobs saved or created right?

1:50:16 Well, he never said save. He never uses saved or created. Oh I'm sorry he started his speech off by saying saved or created that's what we started oh yeah okay well you got me on that because i have to admit I did not see very much and now I saw the whole thing so we started off and but everyone is talking about saved or created but then somewhere somehow along the line it's like we created four million jobs...the president created four million jobs in 29 months no To me, it sounds like we went from saved and created this three million number to created. And I hear three, three and a half or four to mean this is like all very wishy washy. We know that a million jobs were auto worker jobs and they were saved not created so we know there's a million right there but I thought all the other ones were saved or created

1:51:11 Not just created. Am I missing something? Do you think... I don't know, let's face it they're playing a game of three card Monty as far as i'm concerned or hide the net So let's get down to brass tacks then John so the issue is the way that I see it and Europe has we can talk about Europe at different times because clearly even Einstein can figure that out and he's running the joint but here The main problem is we have all these people. And we have all of them went to, you know got huge student loans and we all became lawyers. And there's no money left in that. There are no jobs as a lawyer and soon there is... No one is going to be want... Going to want to be a doctor either. Doctors are leaving their profession they're trying to find jobs with hospitals. It will not longer will it be profitable to have your own private practice because of the change in the insurance scam

1:52:12 We have no factory production. We're not making things other than war machines, which I think we do pretty well. Yeah, stuff that kills people in deserts and we've still got some wars going so were able to sell some stuff But I think, you know if what do we really need to do to actually can with these two but this same these two parties and this one money thing behind it. They're not offering any real solutions now if I were to ask anyone what we need to do? I would be asking you okay

1:52:52 Are you asking me? I am asking you. What do we need to do, to fix it? Yeah, we need to pump in about 10 trillion dollars of phony baloney printed money into the system and probably another ten in about two or three more years and then we're still gonna have an economic collapse in 2017 but that's what we need to do! We need to print more money...I'm telling ya, yeah I mean I'm the only guy on the block saying this but there are other economists who'll say I'm with Bernanke. Print more money! It's not causing inflation? We don't have this out of control situation like Germany in the 30s, that is everybody's fear Who is the money going to then? It has got to go to the public That's the problem you can't give it to bankers they will just put it into their pocket and buy a bigger boat They have essentially start forgiving housing loans and do everything they can Not fake it, not say they are doing it, not do anything which is what they are doing now its bull crap

1:53:47 But they got to get, they gotta prime the pump. They gotta get the public give them a bunch of free money so they have to buy stuff that creates a demand and cranks the system back up again although we have to do something I think here's another one I'll just go completely off the deep end with my ideas We've got to put up trade barriers and stop trading with China screw em! We don't need the public to get a bunch of money then just buy more crap from China Nuts! We should put up tariffs The old-fashioned way So I just want to... This is all bad though. This is all bad thinking! This is not globalist enough, I'm trying-I've been isolationists by even suggesting such a thing No, no, I'm with you on this but I'm just trying to understand the couple of things Umm.. I don't have a mortgage Can I still get some money?

1:54:34 Yeah, no I think it should just be free money. But if everyone gets free money then doesn't that like... They'll spend it! Doesn't equalize everything? It's called priming the pump Don't prices go up if everyone gets a whole bunch of monies? That's the idea you gotta get prices to start to go up Otherwise people aren't going to spend anything. They're gonna just sit on their money or do nothing. So let me look I'm with you on this okay so but we're gonna have the economic collapse anyway that's your basic premise so why not live it up for the next, that's what you're saying right? To live it up for four five years yeah

1:55:10 Right so if it's a ten trillion ten. What's the truth? That's a thousand million right one two three one two three four five six billion It's a billion it's a 1 2 3 4 5 6 oh my calculator isn't quite doing all right divided by 300 in the calculator that's the problem with the trillion yeah, then my calculator you can So it looks like everybody gets One, two three. One two... So everyone gets like 30 million dollars in your plan? No that's not even close More?! We get more?? No, you get not... that's not what the number comes out to be. Well then what is the number? How much does everybody get? Look I'm... Yeah we don't want you sitting here doing mathematical models Just give me a ballpark number! I have to put the calculator up. I can't divide stuff into trillion off of top my head You sure can print it Biatch If i had the opportunity I would By the way people do not counterfeit money on your printers

1:56:10 No, very few people realize there's a code on every piece of paper. Yeah don't be doing that There's a code on every piece of paper you okay? So let me just follow through with you for a second okay guy I'm intrigued so everyone gets 30 thousand Okay, there's 300 million people in the country mm-hmm so if everybody got three if there was three hundred million dollars distributed everyone would get $1 Right? So if there was 3 billion distributed, everyone would get $10. So you'd get 10... It sounds like about I think you'd get three grand or 30 grand let me take a look. I think it's thirty. I think its thirty grand is what your talking about. That could be

1:56:48 That sounds about right. But that's the first tranche, so we get 30 grand and then we get another because you're going to do two 10 trillion twice. Yes. We start off with thirty grand is that gonna help enough people? Do you think it's enough John? You think its gonna be... I won't be kicking myself for getting thirty grand out of the blue from a government check Yeah now does that just take taxes out or is this tax-free money cash cash maybe cash? I think should be tax free money personally yeah Okay and then uh so then I know what I'm going to spend on so we spent spend that money And then you're gonna do it again. So we get another 30 grand, a man... At this point I'm stoned out of my mind is where I am. I'm snorting. I'm hammered

1:57:31 And then what? But then how do we still get the economic collapse, what happens? Your system doesn't complete. It's unavoidable is that the idea? It's a cycle that's you did that's the great thing about cycle is that it's like you know the sun is like what can we do this I'm gonna come up at seven in the morning Is there any way of getting around that well if you can run and in the other direction maybe even put off for awhile but its going to come up eventually And that's essentially what's going to happen. This just puts off the collapse that we should have next year But will it make the collapse easier? Oh, yeah 60 grand sure Makes a lot easier

1:58:16 Very very interesting, but they're give it to the bankers that you know. They just already know this This is the thing that pisses me off can we okay in your system? Can we take it from the bankers and that would be more fun? I think that would be that will be fine right It's like you just take the bankers sell the yachts and then give them money to people That's kind of cool. That'll be cool. Don't be cool hmm But then again you know that sound you sound like Stalin doing that but yeah sometimes Well, anyway in the Netherlands where of course they have a problem. They have debates now and it's great because you've got eight parties which by the way we have lots of parties here in America too but of course you never see any debate between anything but the Republicans or Democrats

1:58:59 So they have a whole bunch of parties. Ask yourself, where's Gary Johnson when they have the big presidential debates? Where is he? Well in fact Ron Paul was on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the only reason Jay has him on is because if Ron Paul equals ratings and here was as a quick conversation about why Ron Paul would not go off to do a third-party run Big question any chance you will run as a third party Oh no, not much. I have to take a rest and prepare for 2016. Why not give it a shot? On third parties? Sure! The system is very biased we talk about democracy, send our troops overseas, want to spread democracy

1:59:53 Democracy isn't all that healthy in this country because if you're in a third party, an oligarchic party... ...you don't get into debates. The truth is that I would have tried the last several years to do exactly what I had done in a third party I probably wouldn't have gotten, wouldn't have made it to your show. But there is something about it that... And if you ever come to a conclusion heaven forbid that the two parties aren't all that different then what's left? At least someone cares. It was nice to hear that at least someone is saying it on national television Yeah, it was amazing they had him on yeah well its ratings That's what it is rating Jimeno would not have him on unless it equals ratings So right and their audience is all jacked up It's perfect so here's the Prime Minister of the Netherlands who is now going around after decommissioned? So he still in the job But it's not really in the job and in the debates

2:00:58 What are the three most important things, Mr. Prime Minister that you're going to do for The Netherlands if you are re-elected and your party is reinstated? Bamen, bamen and bamen. Now could you guess what that translates to? Jobs jobs jobs! Yes! Arbeit arbeit arbeit Jobs jobs jobs jobs Jobs jobs jobs and jobs let's vote for jobs And he pulls a classic out of the hat A classic Um... Idiot

2:01:38 I mean come on that meme is dead. We were playing that in 2008 and now he's like, Bane, Bane and Bane. Geez. At least he caught up four years behind the times you got to set your clock back four years when they go to the Netherlands so i found a great interview There's this guy, what is his name? He's on Fox 19 in Cincinnati. He does the fact check... Ben Swan is his name I really like this guy and by the way he so good that he has not long for this world So he gets to interview the president when he was in Cincinnati The President was in Ohio

2:02:24 And he and it's a stand-up interview. So the president kind of did his thing, whatever... And he gets time with him and he does six minutes stand up interview with the president The president towers over this guy is like a kind looks like Ryan Seacrest little munchkin just brass balls and he lays into the NDAA, which Obama is about to lie about and droning American citizens. And I was just blown away that this made it that the guy that the Ministry of Truth allowed this to go out maybe they thought that bull crap Cincinnati who cares no one's gonna watch that sorry best podcast in the universe is all over it

2:03:06 When you signed the National Defense Authorization Act into law, you issued a signing statement at that time saying that you would not use that power for indefinite detention on Americans. You understood the concerns people had. A judge earlier this year issued that the administration couldn't use those powers because it's unconstitutional So why are the government's own lawyers fighting that judge's order, the injunction in particular? Well look at the basic principle here is number one my first job is to keep the American people safe. Right! Number two we've got to do it in a way that respects our values Yeah like droning people waterboarding them I'm sorry enhanced interrogation

2:03:45 and our traditions of rule of law. Our traditions? Our tradition of torturing you! That's why I ban torture, that's why...I've argued that we should actually close Guantanamo but i've also said that... What?! I know don't ya love it? He argued!? Indeed he would, he didn't argue it! Thats right You can take that to the bank Let's listen again. We've got some bad guys who are down there. We got some bad guys who are down there He sounds like George Bush now, we got some bad guys who are down there you know down there You know bad guys at Folsom and bad guys in San Quentin

2:04:31 He sounds like Bush. I'm sorry, he just sounds like Bush. They pledged Do they pledge to try? They pledged to try. That's even better! I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of Al Qaeda, to try to hurt Americans up there I mean, where's this pledge? And so that's something that we inherited. That we're dealing with... We inherited that by the way! Oh yeah okay it was not our fault. Try to hurt Americans and So that's something that we inherited That were dealing with and its complicated on the other hand It's complicated little man from the press I can't explain its too complicated Im a lawyer What I also said was A US citizen can never

2:05:29 be subject to that kind of detention. Am I remembering this wrong, John? I vaguely remember somebody bitching about it on the floor. Congress disagreed with me and I didn't want us to not be able to finance our military and pay our soldiers or troops so i signed the bill So whoa! He's saying that congress wanted that congress wanted to have that you know we can indefinitely detain black bag even American citizens

2:06:13 But I'm the president and I didn't want to hold up progress for paying our troops, so I signed it anyway. Is this the constitutional professor that i'm hearing? by actually violating the constitution of the united states of america to which you have pledged an oath taken in those to uphold it because he would be a great if i try to uphold and tried to hold your record also said was what uh... but i'm never going to use this power on that promise promised dot com never used his power to take back for the fact promised like i promised to close get my own ever use their power and suspect is that

2:06:57 The courts are going to agree with us over the long term that is not something you can use when it comes to US citizens. Now, our friend from... Wait a minute hold on a second He says the courts are gonna agree with us? That you can't use it to... Isn't that exactly what he's fighting against Didn't he self-contradict there in that little last comment? Well, let me hear it again. I'm not quite sure... The courts will agree with us! The courts are already not agreeing with what you want to do which is hold American citizens. No, I think what he's saying is that HE didn't agree with it and I think what he's implying is ultimately the court will agree that doesn't. Well then why his administration fighting the courts right now?! Let's listen to it again. That my friend is a great question.

2:07:52 that i'm never going to use this power and what I would suspect is that the courts are gonna agree with us over the long term, but that's not something you can use when it comes to US citizens. Interesting. was there, I mean this is what I've been... Hey dude let me ask about your kill list Tuesdays for a second if you don't mind? You know like where you assassinate people with drones in other countries and they're usually brown. They live in the sand. Good! I'm liking this guy." And on that list have been US citizens who have not been afforded trial including Anwar al-Awlaki

2:08:40 How do you as president, or any president for that matter regardless of party or person utilize that power to assassinate even US citizens? Well first of all your basing this on reports in the news that have never been confirmed by me. Until I say it happened, it did not happen. So you're basing that on conjecture? Rumor and clearly you have no fact checked your sources son! And I don't talk about our national security Because I don't talk about national securitay

2:09:23 I don't know why they would have to kill you with a drone. here about kind of leadership has been taken off the field just you know they're not but did you see do you see that big the feel that have to i'm not going to be and uh... that's part of what has allowed us to now begin transition out of afghanistan again to bring our troops on in ten years we're gonna get vigilant for the foreseeable future when it comes to terrorist but we have to ensure a way that is consistent with the laws or with international law

2:10:14 international law? Wait a minute, how about just getting permission from the people from Congress. How about that law? That's something we've always abided by but beyond that I probably can't comment on it. It is not something that is specific to this country. We've always abided by that! That ladies and gentlemen is the man you will be seeing speaking this evening who does not remember droning Anwar al-Awlaki but somehow did take out the entire tier Top tier of every player on the Al Qaeda field a good on that guy from Cincinnati. Yeah, he's done He's so toast Ben. He's done that guys been swan with you start going after Monsanto was tough on your career. Holy mackerel Okay took it to a new level and at one point

2:11:09 I didn't, you gotta watch the clip. At one point you can actually see someone going like hey your time is up and he just goes yeah hold on am i done? I mean, hey thank you. There's a journalist in Cincinnati ladies and gentlemen. Soon to be on WKRP in Cincinnati. Six feet under. Keep track on that guy! He does the thing called... he does a segment called Fact Check and it I have to say I'm very impressed by the guy. I like him. Well enjoy him while you can that's what I said

2:11:45 Enjoy them while you can I give little faith so Was a good one right? Sorry that was good one, right. That was excellent Yeah, that was it you want to clip of the day no bigger for now It was good, but it would not clip of the day is different No, okay, so I'm watching I got a couple things wait let's kill you to give me clip with a day No, never mind. I got a clip of the day later go ahead. Yeah, we'll see we'll see So I got this guy Morsey Morsi yeah more see the guy running Egypt Some total ass do you know that? We're doing military exercise right now with with Egypt what that's all about oh

2:12:37 Nothing, nothing to see here. Just an exercise I know the Indians and the Chinese are now doing military exercise together too Oh yeah And by the way there was some hilarious stuff with the Chinese head of defense ministry in India The Indian Defense Minister guy wearing a white shirt he's about 4 foot 8 And the Chinese guy's six foot, and the little guy is just kind of drooling on himself constantly. It's unbelievable! But anyway... enough about the Indians. So I do know that Morsi, that the rules changed And he now by himself without any of the military guys, he can now say time to go to war. That I did read that's about all i know that is up too Well he's up to something big with the Arab League that is not being reported at all except on Al Jazeera and here you'll hear it on this clip Egypt taking lead in Syria fix Oh wait a minute Is this right one? Sorry

2:13:39 Egypt was not exporting its own revolution, but that there needed to be an Arab solution and very much ruling out any kind of international military intervention. I have to say he also mentioned something very interesting And that is an impending meeting of this new quartet on Syria which Egypt hopes to create a quartet that would bring together Saudi Arabia Egypt and Iran and Turkey, key regional, key neighbouring countries. Not necessarily a very comfortable group of countries to come together but again recognition by Egypt that you can't for example ignore Iran if you're hoping to find some kind of solution in Syria

2:14:19 So they've taken the bull by the horns and said look this is bull crap we're not gonna put up with this anymore. We need an Arab solution here's what we're gonna do, we're gonna put together this coalition that we haven't heard about in American media American media no one's talking about it Iran Iran I'm sorry Iran Turkey Saudi Arabia and Egypt And well can't we get Qatar in there? No, that's it. That's the deal and we're gonna stop this right now So wait a minute so who are the players again Egypt Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia Turkey and Iran Huh you heard this no I had the whole bringing the Iran thing in is new

2:15:04 Yeah, well they're always talking about it because it doesn't fit into scripts that we've been writing so maybe those will go away. So I thought that was kind of unique. Maybe if we don't look at one actually happen you don't look him in the eye Don't look the Shah in the eye, man. That's when he'll strike! Wow... So there is another thing that was reported today I believe it was either in Bangkad or Russia today The refugee camps from Syria are becoming a problem which is worth noting There's a clip here

2:15:41 I was looking at 24 RT. Oh that the head of the International Committee for the Red Cross is in Damascus They are meeting with Syrian officials who are trying to find together Some kind of way of assisting these refugees and resolving a situation I spent quite some time in those camps talking to some of these refugees and I can back up from first-hand experience what? what they as well as humanitarian organizations are saying. What the refugees told me is that sanitation is far from satisfactory, very often they're standing in queues for hours waiting for food there's not enough tents to go around people are sleeping on the streets I spoke with a number of women who were complaining about sexual harassment

2:16:23 One person perhaps put it the best, he told me that him and his family had fled Syria to escape death. But here in the refugee camps they were dying a slow death At the same time there are concerns that you just need a spark to erupt into a flame There are concerns particularly from Jordanian authorities that there could be rioting There were also concerns that there could be further clashes So the main concern at the moment is that the situation is so volatile You could lead to an even further bigger humanitarian catastrophe. Yeah, yeah this is not going to end well No but of course this is Russia today who are exaggerating everything that's problematic obviously now my favorite report then this is by the way Russia today now has a complete channel on the Dish Network so you get to watch all their kind of crazy reports and they get to see their news anchors and all these different people Is that what they replaced AMC with?

2:17:17 Probably. I don't know, that's funny. It's probably yeah. Hey Rooskies we got a whole channel over now no one cares about breaking bad. Screw AMC! No one cares about breaking bad you know so this is the one I never I got some clip bunch of clips including one that i'm going to use as a competition to your clip of the day which is later which is the useless exchange of the day clip, which you know as a new theme of mine. But I do have this one clip that i just thought really nailed it again It's a very biased report on Russia today on false Syrian reports and what they think of them. We talked to a German journalist who has witnessed the conflict in Syria firsthand he tells us why Western media coverage of the civil war is deliberately misleading

2:18:03 The main media coverage claimed that Damascus was at the time when this so-called battle of Damascus. They were saying that whole Damascus is on fire, there are heavy fighting and they were saying that now the rebels are so close to the city center they are about to conquer now the city, the government will fall I was inside the city and there was no war in the city Of course there were some suburbs of interest groups who benefit from such a politics, the big interest group of the western governments who want to have the regime change there and who are supporting that the information you get from these countries are very much one-sided or manipulated. I spoke to a lot of people

2:18:47 Anyway, well but the big news to no agenda listeners. Yeah right Like really that's like that and like they're like the any clip of the day there's not a clipper today That's like duh like yeah We know But what I'm noticing in all these Russia today clips, where are the women hosting this? There's no women here anymore. Do they have any women still on the show They have these women that come on well in fact they do how it's all give a shot at my clip of the day Okay but is like useless exchange of the day and this is The end this theme of these clips Is that this is just something stupid that the came an air time And it doesn't you know but play it okay

2:19:32 Alright, it's time for Katie Pilbeam standing by the RT Business desk. How are you today Katie? I'm super! No, no that's not clip of the day. That is not clip of the day! I'm super. She doesn't even have a Russian accent she has a British accent. All these girls on Russia Today now have British accents as they do on the fancats. That is NOT clip of the day. No, I am sorry that is NOT clip of the day Wow, I can't believe you threw that at me.

2:20:18 Oh yeah, this is a great story. I'm surprised that didn't follow up on it. Well so here's my take on it So I have not downloaded the file Why don't you explain to people who don't know the story because I don't know if its generally It has been discussed in major media but... So from what I understand Anonymous hacked or had an FBI Wasn't it that other group Synanon? Or some other Yeah whatever Some hacker group I don't like the name hacker group. They have, they say they have three terabytes of FBI data and as a part of that they have 12 million unique device IDs in this case from Apple iPhones. Pretty sure Android has it as well every mobile phone has a UDID but associated in this database name address all kinds of personal details

2:21:15 And so this, I'm not quite sure where the story is going but the way it's being presented is that the FBI is tracking your phone. And I'm going to say that, I don't know if they got this. I don't think they got this from the FBI at all. I think they just got it from one app and one app only and thats Facebook! And Facebook is the FBI. The director of the FBI is roaming around the hallway saying hi to Mark in a Time Magazine article that the Facebook, they just came out with a new upgraded app you'll remember. The new Facebook app this is the device, the app that is stealing all of your information so it's not really for like some big leak at the FBI You could be right I mean I'm not gonna deny the possibility and you have to admit that the timeline thing which has everybody bent out of shape is pretty much you know it looks like a dossier to me then It looks like anything you'd be proud to have up Exactly

2:22:17 So, but I'm saying it's Facebook. It's in fact they even say... It's-I think they even say in their pastebin note or whatever They're saying you know all this data came from one app You know and we're not gonna say what it is But yeah of course because it can only be Facebook That's the only one And they have your real name! Huh surprise surprise! So and where's the outrage? If its Facebook it's like oh okay Oh man, it's the FBI tracking me. Ah! Outrage! Outrage! Alert Alex Jones!" It's the second time you mention him. Because it's funny but only when I do like this... Hello? Alert Info Rewards. It's only funny when I do it like that

2:23:03 Because I'm sick and tired of all the fake outrage, and the real things. The real bullcrap that is taking place. This is like a double whammy we're being put to sleep by people who are supposed to be waking up does that make any sense? I like that little phrase, you're being put to sleep by people who are supposed to be waking you up. That's a catchphrase! Yeah well... I'll use it in the newsletter. Good one but that's exactly the way it feels with a lot of yelling and in your face and just all over the place but there is no real thought going into it then things really really blatant just like who gives a shit? Just flows right on by

2:23:51 No, that would be Facebook. I'm pretty sure. So by the way Gazprom is being investigated coincidentally by the Europeans now for gouging Anyway just a little note seems to be falling in line with all other crap going on so I took the leap and I watched they why couldn't actually watch a whole episode? I watched a couple of beginnings and I shook my head and said wow what are you talking about? What did what did you watch man honey boo-boo What? Yeah. This is the top... this is the show that's kicking ratings butt on cable, the new reality show Honey Boo-Boo Wait a minute, honey I've not heard of this! Yeah, huh, got ya Well yeah, uh, I'm too busy watching CNBC where they have Tim Kardashian Here play the Honey Boo-Boo roadkill clip We got a connection with deer because

2:24:50 We love to get roadkill and we like to clean it, grind it up process it put in the freezer and then on weekends grill out have a good time. Okay so this is what you all laugh at but in 2017 they'll be knocking on this idiot's door saying dude you got any road kill for me because I'm hungry Is that what this show was about? Oh how stupid is this No, the show's not about that. The show is about this little girl who is a pageant It's just like it's taken tiaras and toddlers Oh God focusing on one of the little girls who has this huge Fat mother and a bunch of fat sisters And they're all bunch of white trash and obviously Republicans there's some implication in that regard and they're all centered around this little pageant girl Who was a whose? It's just you he watches me go oh

2:25:43 JC said that he says he's now convinced at all reality TV shows are just to make people feel better about themselves because they're They do not show it. There's nothing uplifting about any of this But but just to hear what the soundtrack looks like play HBB and the pig is a lot more work than we thought Hopefully it gets easier I think which is really part of the family Oh Wait, wait. Are you saying something? I'm sorry that was Nancy Pelosi giving her speech Wow! Wow...I mean I know Smash is coming back We'll hold a candle to Honey Boo Boo And it's gonna be better than ever and by the way the opening sequence has them all standing out in front of the house and it incorporates a fart

2:26:47 Oh, really? Yeah. That's how bad it is! Wow... Okay. However I am going to have and you know we are equal partners on this show and i feel that at least once a year each partner can forbid something And so I'm calling my veto card on the show just like the Security Council and I'm vetoing any further clips from Honey Boo Boo Is that fair enough? Can I... is that okay, do you mind? Let's... Okay. Okay yeah you want to play that game? Two can play that game! We'll see what you ban for me. Alright um ok then here's my contender for the clip of the day So this was a CBS morning show and i think it was Labor Day when they had like The B Team in

2:27:49 And they had this doctor, or scientist or whatever the hell he was and he's written a book about wheat. Did you know that wheat is poison? I've heard this guy before... Yeah, I think I've seen this... Go on play the clip Yes! I know wheat is poison Why in your estimation is wheat so bad It's not wheat. It is an 18-inch tall plant created by genetics research in the 60s and 70s This thing has many new features nobody told you about such as there is a new protein called gliadin

2:28:24 We're not talking about gluten, so I'm not addressing the people who have gluten sensitivities and celiac disease. I'm talking about everybody else because everybody else is susceptible for instance to the gliadin protein that is an opiate this thing binds of the opiate receptors in your brain And most people stimulates appetite such that you and I consume on average 440 more calories per day 365 days per year. I love this! Now the genetically modified wheat is a drug and it works with the neuroreceptors in your brain and makes you want to be a honey- That's why you like to eat that bread. Or shredded wheat or any of, I mean yeah!

2:29:06 But the bread, yeah. I mean this was news to me! I bet you're hungry right now Would it be possible to turn back the clock and go back to old wheat? Is that scientifically possible at this point in time It's very possible but economically unfeasible probably because this thing yields about tenfold more per acre And so we have to ask farmers to take a loss in effect We'd have to ask agribusiness to revert back to old seeds they can do it, they probably won't do it. Now we have sparked a movement and we are having a lot of people there having record drops in sales because of this because so many people I think what's driving this is the tidal wave of change if three people lost eight pounds well big deal this thing just dies and fizzles right but we're seeing hundreds of thousands of people losing thirty

2:29:51 80, 150 pounds. Diabetes becoming no longer diabetic people with arthritis having dramatic relief People losing their legs swelling acid reflux ear bowel syndrome depression on and on and on Wow So to me I was like wow if we just stop eating wheat, we'll be okay. I mean wheat isn't a lot of things though it shows up in a lot of stuff doesn't it? Yeah especially American wheat now the Europeans still grow old kinds of wheat especially the bread makers have their own wheat sources but we just cranked this

2:30:28 Just weed out, just white woot. Just weed. I'm not giving you clip of the day No i don't need clip of the day Oh by the way Mr Oil who speaks Russian He has a response from Gazprom about the inquiry Yeah? Do you want me to do it with a russian accent? Yeah EU has no rule over us So please keep your comments to your tabloids That's Gazprom Shut up slave That's basically what they say. Wow, okay thanks Mr. Oil. Just some late stuff before we get out of here got a nice note one of our producers was because people have gotten interested in the books that we discuss on this show and Pete a lot in droves now there seems to be a run on It Can Happen Here from Sinclair Lewis right 1935 and so there is a Wikipedia

2:31:29 About this and let me just find the relevant article because this is very funny Here it is inspired by the book director producer Kenneth Johnson wrote an adaptation titled storm warnings in 1982 The script was presented to NBC for production as a television miniseries But the empty empty the NBC executives rejected the initial version claiming It was too cerebral for the average American viewer like shut up slave. We don't want them to know what's going on To make the script more marketable, The American Fascists were recast as man-eating extraterrestrials taking the story into the realm of science fiction. This new recast story then aired in 1983 and was premiered as a miniseries by John

2:32:22 V. Did you know that? Yeah, did you know that it was based on It Can't Happen Here Well I knew it as of a week ago when somebody sent me an email mentioning it Don't be a douche I didn't know if when I was watching v I know but and it's funny because yeah in some regards it is kind of the um...I think the book is better Yeah well hope There something dreamed up by a buncha suits at NBC I like it though. That's what it turned out to be. Alright, so... I think we can play the summary of the convention again if you want to at least deserves a second play. I would like to do that and well It's gonna be hard once again. There we go! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!

2:33:22 our timber. What was that? That's what was on there, I don't know. No it's your Yip-Yip clip, I don't know what it is. Yip-yip this a clip you know of where...I remember there were a bunch of complaining about mocking the sounds Indians make and uh... because it's racist or whatever. But I saw, actually there was this really cool sound that Indians some Indians make There was an indian woman standing closely you can't hear the clip very well but if you listen hard she goes whoo! And then she goes yip-yip in some very melodic way which is she's an Indian like a princess looking Indian
