About this episode

Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk resigned this week following the collapse of his governing coalition, leaving the nation's military funding and energy security in a state of emergency. The Rada descended into physical altercations as deputies failed to pass critical laws required for an IMF loan, while physical fighting broke out over troop mobilization. This political vacuum arrives as Russia and the West escalate their strategic battle over the European gas market through the South Stream pipeline and Mediterranean reserves.

State Department spokesperson Marie Harf defended the evacuation of the U.S. embassy in Tripoli during a tense exchange with Wolf Blitzer, characterizing the Libyan chaos as a generational transition toward democracy. Meanwhile, General Martin Dempsey warned the Aspen Security Conference that Vladimir Putin is inciting ethnic nationalism that could spiral out of control, noting a significant increase in Russian cruise missile proficiency. In the United States, President Obama introduced the concept of economic patriotism to target corporate tax inversions, while TSA Administrator John Pistole faced criticism for his cavalier tone regarding the 2009 underwear bomber incident.

Sir Serendipity and Sir John of Stratford received formal knighthoods during a ceremony featuring Portuguese olive oil and a discussion on the display limits of Google Voice. The technical crew addressed the challenges of cooling a casita studio where an air conditioning technician’s repetitive use of the phrase pinch a loaf caused unexpected discomfort. The show concludes with a look at Motorola digital tattoos and the growing presence of tent cities in Austin and Berkeley.

Transmission Failure, Texas Towing, and Extended Warranty Frustrations

A vehicle's transmission failed during a trip to a local farmers market, forcing a return home in reverse. A tow truck driver named Red from Texas Towing transported the vehicle to a Ford garage, where disputes arose regarding the coverage of an extended warranty. The experience is contrasted with the service provided by Lexus, which typically offers loaner vehicles for repairs.

00:00 I have tech news. You have tech news, John? I actually have tech news...I have a clip! Adam Curry, John C. DeVora It's Sunday July 27th 2014 it's time for your GetMonation Media Assassination episode 638 This is no agenda We're all waiting for beers here in the South Austin safe house and FEMA region 6 capital of the drone star state. In the morning everybody, I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where it's supposed to be 99 degrees today but it's about 50. I'm John C. DeVoreis It's crackpot and buzzkill! Now is that just climate change playing tricks on you or is it going to warm up? Or is that a hundred...and it feels like fifty

00:41 Well, it was said this is according to the when we did the last show which was on Thursday They predicted that Friday was gonna be like 90 and then Saturday it's gonna be 99 and Sunday was gonna Be 99 so I was gonna be hot right? Right. So Saturday so Friday turned out to be the hottest day yesterday was windy and kind of mild and Today, it's basically cold Okay, well it finally hit here the past two days have been a hundred plus in good in Texas. Well not so good Oh yeah, I know that's good for the weather no Yeah, I didn't talk about it but on Thursday Just before the show like five minutes before the show Miss Mickey calls me and it was raining It was one of those crazy morning rain storms kind of here

01:32 And she's like, I just pulled off the highway. I was driving and hit the accelerator and it didn't move. It didn't accelerate! When you're in a big truck or when people drive like morons... It's a little scary. Well, because California they do the same thing of course and I said well you know did you just get gas? No two days ago it could be that you know the gas was crappy or something like that and she couldn't really figure out but it was hard for me to diagnose what the problem was anyway so she asked her call the garage yeah and they should all well we don't have a replacement car coming Monday so anyway Mickey finally gets this car home

02:12 She's actually driven it on Friday, and she says something wrong doesn't feel right and then yesterday with you know now It's a hundred two degrees like oh Let's let's go to the farmers market I get in the car And we drive reverse out of the driveway put it in gear and we go like three feet and then Like okay. Let me try like this sound So the transmissions dropped out it only goes in Reverse I'm reversing around the farmers market. Anyway, exactly So I'm reversing around the block to get back and but you know now this is where it starts Where you know now? I have to figure out how many I can't drive to the to the Ford garage in reverse so I gotta call them Yeah, like I'll call them like yeah We'll send over Texas towing which is red that you gotta imagine

03:06 Red is about 300 pounds. He's he's got a complete bright orange short cropped hair and beard You know three teeth in his face Huge belly, and he's good. Hey I'm red! I'm here to take you And of course after ride with him to the Ford garage and now it was much of a conversationalist Oh yeah? He loved talking is hot in the truck. Yeah that air-conditioned don't work. That's okay. I mean it was big sweaty red in the truck It's all just horrible. And then, you know I bought that extended warranty because when you buy a second-hand car like this and I get there and say oh yeah we'll see if all the parts are covered under your warranty... What? What do you mean all the parts?! That is exactly what you said to me! Like please don't don't do this to me

03:52 and they say well we're going to double check you know because of course we've moved I don't have i can't find any paperwork here. Well, if you can rent the car and then you know if it turns out that's covered under your extended warranty then you'll get a voucher and will charge... It's like ah this is gonna be horrible It was funny when you have a Lexus and my car is what 20 plus years old. Yeah, old Lexus nothing nothing wrong with it Well know that's well yeah well there's that but the other thing is interesting Is that they will always loan you a car? That's why I was like What's the problem? You know he's like come on. I bought the car here nine months ago Yeah

04:35 It was one of those things, you know. When you have all the extra expenses and moving and then your tranny drops out... And boy do I hate it when the tranny drops out! Yeah, bet ya do! So now all this takes place in a hundred... You just bought the car few months ago. Yeah, nine months ago. It should be covering this without the extended anything! No you have to know you had I think it's 60-day lemon law or something and Well, the lemon laws got nothing to do with the thing falling apart. Well look i'm not a very sophisticated buyer of automobiles I guess Oh maybe? I'm sorry

Studio Cooling Challenges, "Pinch-a-Loaf" Air Conditioning Technician

A new studio located in a casita struggled to maintain cool temperatures due to the heat generated by multiple routers, computers, and screens. An air conditioning technician inspected the unit but repeatedly used the phrase "pinch a loaf" during his technical explanation. The terminology caused significant discomfort and confusion during the service call.

air conditioning· casita· computer heat· texas heat· technician· slang

05:16 But anyway, so this is all taking place in this heat. And then you have this new studio which was... it's a little casita which is on the other side of the house which was built for your grandmother to be here half dead and then not be here during the day and certainly not have computers and screens and cable boxes and routers and so the air conditioning can't handle it Really? Yes. I've got all the shades down. It can handle a normal Texas 105 degree day but it can't handle a couple of routers? No, it can handle the 105 day but not with you know 7 foot 6 foot person and you know I got tons of computers here How hot are you? 98.6. Come on there is softball. 98.6 hey come on Softball

06:04 Yeah, and so the air co guy comes over he says nah man I'm measuring it but Scott you know you got it's all cold everything works. He didn't go and he keeps...it's very strange Because there's a bathroom here and he's trying to explain, and every single time in his explanation of why the air conditioning can't handle it. He saying no you know you got the computers and you got them screens even if you're going pinch a loaf... And he kept saying this pinch-a-loaf thing I was little creeped out by it! That is pretty creepy that guy keeps saying it like three or four times. Maybe just once for effect thats fine. You pinching a loaf? Dude all right I don't pinch a loaf....I poop

Top Fuel Dragsters, NHRA High-Tech Racing Mechanics

Top Fuel dragsters and funny cars now compete on a 1,000-foot track rather than a traditional quarter-mile due to safety concerns regarding 10,000 horsepower engines. These machines reach speeds of 300 miles per hour in under four seconds, requiring a complete engine rebuild every 45 minutes between runs. The sensory experience at the starting line includes intense vibrations and the distinct scent of nitromethane fuel.

06:41 I don't pinch a loaf. Welcome to Texas You're in new neighborhood my friend yeah, oh yeah No We know that we've gone a little down in in neighborhoods But maybe at least my car won't get broken into here no pretty good be a fight over that better here Yeah anyway so I went to the drag races yesterday Wow RuPaul's Drag Race And I have to say, I haven't been to a drag race for so long that I apparently don't know what the hell's going on. Has it changed? Isn't the essence just a lot of noise and then it's over in three seconds?

07:19 That is still the basic end point, but it's not done. It's like the way it's done now with so high-tech Oh they got compute they got sensors on everything Here's an example of what goes two things I learned that I didn't know about one Is that the quarter of a mile for the top fuel dragsters and the money? Yeah funny and the funny cars which these are Machines that develop 10 thousand horsepower yeah, we're not a quarter mile anymore. It's only 1,000 feet Well, how long feet is a quarter mile? Well 5200 feet is like 1200 feet. No it's more than that actually It's 13 14 1500 feet That's what I got to do the math But it's not and we have to throw out the grease lightning song now Whatever the case is they things are too dangerous these cars So the car makes over you have to imagine this you have this car

08:14 It makes this quick run, it's three and a half seconds or four seconds at the most to get down to the end of 1,000 feet doing 300 miles an hour in 1,000 feet. They bring the car back into the pits? And they rebuild the thing from scratch. They take everything off of it- Oh no that has always been the case! They always take it apart after a run I thought Well when I was kid they didn't But they take it apart, they take the clutch, they take everything. They gut the car and then they rebuild it and all do this within 45 minutes because they got another run. Well there's not much to it its just engine and these guys chairs... There is quite a bit actually but its built to be taken apart that's the point

09:00 And I mean the body comes off, the engine's very easy to get to at that point. So it doesn't take a genius to take it apart but... Any good crashes? Anything explosive? No, I didn't see any crashes. It was just very educational and I found it very entertaining. And when, if you go for the first time the two things you notice are one how incredibly loud this is. If you don't have ear protection yeah your hurting yourself and the smell is a smell that it's quite delicious. I agree! You never forget the smell of this nitro stuff so its like pfff very nice very refreshing Well I ended up with a starting line pass

09:50 Which is a little different, as loud and crazy as it is normally. If you're on the starting line area which is where all these guys are that wipe off the tires and all this right there where the car is when it takes off It's the most...and I would recommend anyone can get one of these passes just to experience this. Well if you have breasts its never a problem You get to the start, you can get on the track where the cars are taking off. It is the most astonishing series of low notes and solar plexus shake-up that you have ever experienced! I mean there's absolutely nothing like it.

10:35 It's like an earthquake. It is, it is. It's just astonishing! It's also a very American thing. You know? Just...an American thing Yeah, the audience reflects that it's actually pretty. Actually the audience isn't just rednecks is a broad based group of people and it's very fan friendly because the pits are you can get pit passing hang out with the drivers? You know So on we'll get off the topic I do want to mention in the PR section of The Show Notes for today six three eight dot no agenda notes calm two videos actually one full video and then pictures and video page of the official No Agenda battery car

No Agenda Battery Car, Tesla S Track Performance

A custom electric vehicle designated as the official No Agenda battery car achieved speeds of 187 miles per hour on a test track. Video footage shows the vehicle passing a Tesla Model S during trials. The project aims to demonstrate superior performance compared to commercial electric vehicles in a non-competitive track environment.

tesla· battery car· electric vehicle· racing· youtube

11:16 Did you see the video that these guys put together and sent to us? Yeah, we talked about it. I didn't have it in the show notes and I uploaded to YouTube and tweeted it... This thing is great! It goes fast. 187 miles per hour on a battery or something. We'll promote this thing as long as you beat the crap out of Tesla Do we just have to be faster than Tesla all the time? He had a tesla s on this track and he passed it good But he mentions in the video that you apparently these are like trials of some sort and so use not real race And you can't just pass anybody unless they, unless your right behind them and then they give you the go ahead. Yeah so there's no competitive passing where you know you could bump bump offenders anyway as we move into to this show for today happy belated sysadmin day I feel kind of bad that we didn't pre promote that on Thursdays show because we are pretty much the only media outlet in the universe that actually

System Administrator Appreciation Day, Media Recognition

System Administrator Appreciation Day passed without significant recognition from mainstream media outlets or late-night hosts like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. The role of network and systems administrators is highlighted as essential for global infrastructure. The lack of public awareness regarding the importance of these technical professionals remains a point of contention.

sysadmin day· network administrators· john stewart· colbert· technology

12:16 admires, respects and honors systems administrators network administrators the guys who make the whole thing tick. Is that true you think? I never hear... please did you see John Stewart say happy sysadmin day no No Colbert? Well they don't know what a sysadmin is or the importance of a sysadmin so and we have lots of female sysadmins Yeah, so it makes sense. We're always very very happy there around I guess a couple of people There's a lot of email coming in a lot Of course is a lot of weird things happening in the world and I I realized that I certainly maybe we have overlooked or maybe miss misestimated or misjudged

CHAPTER 06 / 46 Discussion

Globalist Interests, Atlanticist and Pacificist Geopolitics

Geopolitical analysis suggests that high-level officials like John Kerry represent globalist factions rather than specific national interests. Terms such as Atlanticist and Pacificist are used to describe those focused on regional power blocs like the U.S.-Europe alliance. This perspective views international conflicts through the lens of resource ownership rather than traditional geographic borders.

globalism· john kerry· atlanticist· new world order· trilateral commission

13:14 The people who are kind of running the world when we talk about Kerry or you know, no chin monster. I don't think we misjudged any of them! Well here's the misjudging that I feel like done where...I'm often talking about you know Kerry and on behalf of America Here is what America is doing against Russia and Russia is doing against the EU And the mistake that I'm making, I think is these people aren't actually for any country. The geographic stuff of...I represent this part of the world? I think that is where I've gone wrong and have to look at it on much more like a globalist scale of people you know. The people who really run things they're globalists! They don't give a crap which country does it for them they really just care about owning more of

14:02 And when you start to look at things a little more in that perspective, and particularly Kerry who represents a faction of globalists. Things become a little clearer when you think he's not just there trying to make things work for America In fact very little is being done for America I believe No well these guys from that school the school that Kerry comes from where actually would be termed by By the communists or the Marxist as an internationalist Or I heard a new term Atlanticist Atlanticist and Pacificist, Pacificist it would be? Pacificist. I've never heard those terms. But Atlanticists who's purely for the Atlantic Ocean so the United States and Europe... No, I think there is something to it! All that stuff about New World Order and Trilateral Commission It's kind of happening People say we're going to have World War III And I look around and say how much of the world has to be at war for it to qualify as World War III

Arseniy Yatsenyuk Resignation, Ukraine Parliamentary Crisis

Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk resigned following a parliamentary collapse and the failure of laws regarding military funding and energy independence. The resignation leaves the payment of teacher salaries and gas storage projects in limbo ahead of autumn elections. Physical altercations occurred within the Rada as deputies debated military mobilization and relations with Russia.

ukraine· arseniy yatsenyuk· kiev· parliament· energy crisis· russia

15:03 Well, so which brings us to a point which I have a clip of. What is the deal with this? With the bookkeeper of the Ukraine that guy who was a... Oh he resigned! Yeah here's the clip of it. Yes i have a couple things on that. Expected to continue Friday morning our international affairs editor Armin Georgian joins me on set now. Now, we were just seeing in that report what is it exactly that Yatsenyuk's resignation means for the crisis in Ukraine? Well firstly concerning the laws that he was condemning Parliament for not passing those pertain to paying salaries. So he said he could no longer pay doctors teachers He couldn't pay for new rifles or fuels

15:48 to carry out the military operation in eastern Ukraine. And the second main issue was energy, that's to say he said Parliament's failure to pass these laws meant that yes, the country could no longer fill its gas storages in order to quote free ourselves from our dependence on Russian gas." Presumably what this means is that on both of those issues, on salaries being paid and on the energy issue there's going to be limbo until at least until those elections are held this autumn. Now, elections were a key demand of the pro-European activists, the so called Euromaidan movement they really wanted elections to happen that was one of their demands last year when

16:35 The old regime was still in power, but of course things have changed radically since then. Now the country's wracked by this insurgency in the east and I suppose the larger question has to be what effect do new elections have in terms of bringing that conflict any closer to a conclusion or indeed in resolving this gas dispute with Russia? The way I understand it is, basically the parliament fell. They had a parliamentary crisis when the right-wing party I think the boxer guy was leading a faction and he pulled out and then they didn't have the majority and that's when the whole thing came crumbling down And here's something that i only saw on Euronews...I did not see this it didn't see this on CNN or any you know Washington possibly controlled media outlet

17:27 Ukraine's Parliament descended into chaos after a politician took issue with criticism of Russia and accused Kiev of waging war on Ukrainian people. A member of former President Viktor Yanukovych party, he was pushed off the rostrum by far-right MP and the melee ensued. The elected deputies did manage to approve a presidential decree calling up more military reserves to serve in the East where fighting has continued. So they're putting it mildly but there are guys punching each other in parliament! Yeah... Uh-huh, this is great and isn't this the and by the way accountant I think he also looks a little bit more like a bass player from a 70's disco band Yeah, yeah, we still think that they count. I think it because yeah He could look a little bit like a base player. You know what? I mean was introvert guys

18:16 So this was the guy who's like, oh we're going to hold everyone to account these bastards. Bastards and then he resigns! Yeah, he was the original kind of stand-in president Right yeah until they got that boney baloney election that put the other guy in and he became prime minister...and now he quits This is not working out the way Newland Noodleman wanted it to work out. He was one of the guys who had the nickname Yaz or something like that? Yes, Yatz. So what's your analysis? What do you think happened specifically with him? It could also be that he has messed it up so bad or that he had to get out and they may be bringing some new person in

CHAPTER 08 / 46 Discussion

Jen Psaki Absence, Russian Media Satire

State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki has been absent from recent briefings, leading to speculation about her standing with Secretary of State John Kerry following a trip to Turkey. Russian media outlets, including Russia Today, have turned Psaki into a comedic figure, using animations and sound effects to mock her press performances. Marie Harf has taken over the majority of briefing duties in her absence.

jen psaki· state department· russia today· john kerry· turkey

19:03 That's because everyone is very quiet about this. It's not even really being brought up in the State Department briefings No, which is very peculiar. I've been looking for some info on Psaki You had a clip on Thursday's show Yeah you know i was looking for info on her too and I found...I almost found something but then I just couldn't believe what I was running into was going to account for the her being sent to Siberia Well so backing up of it is Explain to people who don't know we're talking about Apparently, John Kerry had gone to Turkey and then said some disparaging things about Jen Psaki the spokesperson for the State Department. And that's why Marie Harf has been doing all the press conferences and Psaki has been absent without missing an action now we wonder why? Yeah so I talked to our Russian producers

19:57 And although no one could say specifically what might have happened, apparently in Russia Jen Psaki is some kind of running joke. They have... Yeah I saw that! Russia Today has a whole webpage on it. Yeah and they've got videos where they make funny cartoon sounds when she's talking and shit like boink boink boing boing boing boing boing boing boing boing. They think she's more well there you go But she must have said more than just whatever. Well, I looked at all those tips and saw nothing that was... Me neither! It was just what are you guys making a fuss about? So there's got to be something else and there may have been something to trigger it or maybe just the smear campaign

CHAPTER 09 / 46 Discussion

Marie Harf, Matt Lee State Department Briefing Clash

Marie Harf and Associated Press reporter Matt Lee engaged in a heated exchange regarding allegations of Russian artillery fire into Ukraine. Lee challenged Harf to provide evidence beyond "intelligence information," mockingly asking for a YouTube video to verify the claims. Harf maintained that the information was based on classified sources and methods that could not be publicly disclosed.

marie harf· matt lee· state department· intelligence· russia· artillery

20:39 Yeah, why I mean what the what but why exactly does that make? Even though this is not even important to anything that we do generally. I think will still figure it out I think it's because there's something weird about it could also be that The Russians just like you and I enjoy The Matt and Marie show which I think they should take on the road man from a baton I got a clue at Maria clip. I got look I got the clip Let me see, what do you have? Did you get the one where she just starts to- Here it is. Mollie, will you tell if this is the one? I do have a couple of new pieces of information about arms continuing to flow across the border since the shoot down. We have new evidence that the Russians intended deliver heavier and more powerful multiple rocket launchers to the separatist forces in Ukraine and have evidence that Russia is firing artillery from within Russia to attack Ukrainian military positions. This are some pieces of info I've been able to get

21:38 from our intelligence friends for you. I can't tell you what the information is based on, I know that's disappointing to you Matt but was able to get just some of the data points we've seen about... He has the best line coming up here. The continuing arms flow across the border Right but it's not me who you need to convince It's the rest of the world. I don't understand- The rest of the world who has seen these separatists shoot down a dozen planes, who is now seeing a separatist leader come out and say they had this missile and appear to at least take credit for something similar to this? So I think there's a preponderance of evidence we went through yesterday. I'm happy to continue going through it. No no no. No, I don't think we need to go through all what you guys presented as in lieu of evidence but ...

22:19 But I would like to know what you're basing this new evidence that the Russians intend to send any heavier equipment. It's based on some intelligence information, and I can't get into the sources and methods behind it but i was able be able tell you that Is there a YouTube video or something that you could point us too? Do have a YouTube video I could look at perhaps as evidence At what point? uh... as you see turns away versus are any other questions of the north and we have all the questions to him in any sense something else denied and then she turns to the audience and nobody will raise their hands because everyone defers to this guy so he jumps back in takes over the conversation and pretty much did does this commonly and i suspect that it did with your son seniority system within i don't know how it works but its offices is seniority says because he has that based chair

23:21 right in the front. He's a pole position and he is Always miked. Well, they all have Mike Brady all of them have mics Yeah But he's really my I mean he's got the loudest voice and it seems to me They don't they probably do all that well in cases Everyone seems that when he's asking questions everyone else shuts up yeah because entertaining well If it was a seniority thing or associated press, I mean that's pretty high position That's for sure let's uh actually I tweeted him after I saw this um Said dude if you're ever in Austin, I'm buying you a beer hashtag. Is there a YouTube video we can see? Just wondering if what it is. I just said I wasn't going to give you the underlying source for it Don't give me more information and just say nothing I love that you would join me to say nothing to you Would you rather have no information

24:15 I can't give you the source. No, actually asking a question here If i can't give you the source and method would you prefer? I not give me the information Yeah because it would be uh unprovable bullshit How about that that's but of course matt he's a little more um polite Marie, I think that it would be best for all concerned here... Are there any other questions? Shut up, Slade! When you make an allegation like that you're able to back it up with something more than just because I say so. It's not what I said, it's based on intelligence information. Not because I said so. You just see, it's not because I said so. It's based on intelligence Matt! Delegations though...I mean you guys get up and at the UN Security Council make these allegations Secretary gets on the Sunday shows to make these allegations and then when you present your evidence to back-up those allegations it has appeared too, at least for some fall short of definitive proof Do you? I would strongly disagree with that So okay, so you're saying that they're moving in

25:14 True and heavier weaponry. Can you say what kind? I said multiple rocket launchers. Multiple rocket launchers of the Bukh kind or of the same- I can check in here on this one. Multiple orgasms, she could say anything she wants and I just love listening to it. One, and I can't remember now if the rest is ... They're firing artillery from within Russia to attack Ukrainian military. Do you believe that rockets, missiles, artillery whatever fired from Russian territory took down these two Ukrainian planes or do you not even have confirmation yet that that happened? We're still looking into exactly what brought them. So, you're sure that they did? I said we are still looking into it You're sure the planes went down Oh! That's my understanding Okay But you don't know...I mean the Ukrainians have said The Ukrainians have claimed that they were shot down from one of their planes Why is it

26:05 that they don't see that this is such a farce. Or maybe it's just everyone so dumbed down, of course this never gets on the air I guess. This never really presented to the public. No it never gets on the air these things. It's never presented to the public now. Tettetettes. And they... But oh isn't shouldn't it just be... As entertaining as it is now, they did take this clip and they highlighted it on C-SPAN As a standalone clip on C-SPAN no less Wow well I mean at least they somebody did This is the only time I've ever seen Marie with that bun that hairdo Actually she was on with broth It was to have two clips one is about Carrie specifically this is more about Israel and Palestine

John Kerry Diplomatic Phone Calls, Marie Harf Commentary

Secretary of State John Kerry conducted numerous diplomatic phone calls from his aircraft while traveling between Paris, Washington, and the Middle East. Marie Harf praised Kerry's deep engagement with Israeli and regional partners during the ongoing crisis. Critics characterized the State Department's commentary as overly promotional of Kerry's work ethic.

john kerry· middle east· paris· diplomacy· state department

26:58 But when you listen to her and Brof, and she's basically just saying my boss is so awesome John Kerry is just fucking awesome. He's awesome he's great all right So the secretary is gonna stay in Paris what are his plans? He's gonna come back here to the Middle East Do you know it does he know this well if the Secretary is currently on his way back to Washington Yeah has left Paris He is also I would note making a number of phone calls from the plane to Israelis and other partners as well And you know, no matter where he is whether it's Jerusalem or Paris or Cairo or Washington. He is so deeply engaged in these issues. He has made dozens and dozen of phone calls over the past few days and will absolutely continue to be going forward

27:41 We're here on official business. He's just making phone calls everywhere from the plane, he's calling everybody, he's in charge, and when you see... Boy is that a kiss ass commentary! When you see the video of Carrie... She wants to get Saki out of there. Oh well Saki is nowhere to be found. Yeah. And it's kind of jumping actually this is Libya, do I say kinda long clip but its her and Brolf and so funny This is, it is every lie you can imagine right down to of course Gaddafi for years he was a brutal dictator killing people. Absolutely not true!

Libya Embassy Evacuation, Marie Harf Wolf Blitzer Interview

The United States evacuated its embassy in Tripoli, Libya, due to intense militia fighting near the diplomatic compound. During a CNN interview with Wolf Blitzer, Marie Harf defended the $1.65 billion spent on the 2011 intervention, describing the current chaos as a difficult generational transition toward democracy. Harf rejected the idea of a specific threat, citing the general security environment as the reason for the suspension of operations.

He was not some horrible brutal dictator all the time no more or less than any other leader of any country But when you hear her talk about Libya and covering up the fact that it's completely out of control, we don't give a crap. The only thing we care about is that the oil is flowing which is the only reason all this happened and of course we never saw any video really of the destruction of the Tomahawk missiles and everything. We just blew the place up, and went in took over! And so now things are heating up... All they have is people running oil rigs and then the embassy. Get the people out

29:11 And he and she is just lying. Let me quickly get your thoughts on Libya and the decision by the US to leave the U.S. embassy, evacuate U.S. diplomatic and military personnel from Libya. This has turned out what's going on in Libya of the last couple years or so since the overthrow of Gaddafi as a real disaster hasn't it? Since the okay since the overthrow of Gaddafi when you overthrow of that we killed him We went and we killed the guy, and took over his country. Well look Wolf- Ha ha ha! Well look Wolf I'm Marie Harff. We know that these kind of large transitions from decades and decades of dictatorship trying to move towards democracy...we know those transitions take a long time in many cases It's just not easy can you believe this John?

30:03 This is crazy. Decades and decades of dictatorship. They're often quite difficult, they certainly don't happen overnight and they really are generational challenges that we need to work on it's only been three years since the Libyans rose up in and tried to pick a better future Wait a minute! The Libyans rose up and tried to pick a better future? The Libyans didn't say, hey come and take over. This is bullshit! We know there will be challenges along the way. The reason we have temporarily suspended operations at our embassy is because there was just so much severe fighting literally in the vicinity of the embassy that we believed we needed to pull our folks out for now but I want to be clear Ambassador Jones... And I want to be clear because this is how I'm taught to talk

30:51 We'll be heavily engaged in the meantime, but we'll also get back on the ground as soon as they possibly can. It is critical that we remain engaged here. Was there a credible and specific threat to US diplomats working in Tripoli? No, Wolf. That's not why we took this step and I want to be clear about that Obviously we know it is a difficult operating environment but we really did this because the embassy itself it physically located pretty much in the middle of where so much of this very heavy militia fighting has been taking place So were just in the middle of a very tough security situation As you showed earlier at the airport in Tripoli also

31:29 Has come under intense fighting so we believe that this makes sense shut down. Yeah wise to do this But look we operate in many dangerous places around the world Oh because with State Department, We operate in dangerous places when did we replace our are? The person who speaks for the United States of America with my kindergarten teacher This is just, this is nuts. Because we believe that there's a role for American leadership to play there We certainly believe that's the case in Libya We will continue working with them and we'll get our folks back in there as soon as we possibly can To lead them! All right, Brawley. One final question Marie before I let you go. I did some checking before this show the US government spent US taxpayers 1.65 billion dollars with a B 1.65 billion dollars those Tomahawk cruise missiles the other military expenditures The humanitarian aid the economic aid to Libya it to get rid of Qaddafi in effect was that money well-spent now before we let her answer first So I think that's lowballing it don't you?

32:32 Oh, absolutely. That's maybe a week's worth. I mean just the fuel alone for jets. And of course any money we put in went directly into the American economy really you know, in oil profits and the military-industrial complex. I mean it's just a round robin but i think we can probably say hey what price do you put on democracy for people? As Americans we need to make sure there's a democratic life and a decent retirement for all human beings. It's your human right Well look, Wolf. We are helping a country come out of the brutal dictatorship. Brutal! We are helping the people of Libya get a better future. We believe this is incredibly important to do even despite the amount of money that you mentioned because we believe this is not just a security issue but also an issue of American leadership and helping democracies flourish if they can in places where they hadn't before so look this is a tough challenge and people who expect

33:31 democracy to just spring up from dictatorship overnight. You're crazy! I think you probably aren't familiar with the history of how difficult it is because we believe it's a long-term priority, it's a long term challenge and we will keep working with the Libyans because again we really do believe that its critical to help give them a chance at a better future thats why so many Libyans rose and indeed gave their lives for it. Yes, the Libyans rose up they said we want a better future please please Hillary Clinton I mean please help us! Unconfirmed yes we came... We saw... He died. Thank you for your democracy do that sad thing is i think she believes it

CHAPTER 12 / 46 Discussion

European Gas Market, South Stream Pipeline Geopolitics

Russia and the West are engaged in a strategic battle over the European energy market, with Vladimir Putin promoting the South Stream pipeline as a bypass through Bulgaria and Serbia. Recent developments include shale gas equipment installation in eastern Ukraine and oil exploration deals in Ethiopia and Iraq. The conflict is framed as a competition to secure the European Union as a primary natural gas customer.

gazprom· south stream· putin· bulgaria· shale gas· european union

34:14 I think she really thinks that we're breeding some kind of... Yeah, she seems pretty sincere in a kind of glib way. In a disturbing glib way! So back to... If you're gonna be doing this job, you have to drink the Kool-Aid it seems to me. Yeah, so just back to Russia, Ukraine and obviously the fight, the war for the customer being Europe I have a collection of other gas related news stories that came out just in the couple days between this Thursday show and today

34:52 Ukrainian army helps install shale gas production equipment near Slavyansk, which is eastern Ukraine. Putin visit to Serbia to focus on gas, battle for Syria gas field after jihadists execute hundreds. Erdogan purchases $35 million oil tanker Bulgarian energy holding puts off Gazprom loan on South Stream Bulgaria's Prime Minister resigns with bank crisis unresolved. The South Stream pipeline is Putin's backup And, you know all these countries are like well what are you going to do for me? and then the EU bankrupts these countries if they don't play along Hungary's Prime Minister not intending to give up on South Stream

35:32 Russia's Gazprom Neft started oil production from Badra Oil Field in Iraq. Oil and gas Russian company signs exploration deal with Ethiopia, South Stream not a priority says Croatian official they're backing off little Serbia says South Stream pipeline crucial Bulgarian government approved South Stream loan from Gazprom in its last days So there's, you know... Putin is all over the place. Also lent 18 billion dollars to a... Oh no that was the Chinese. Putin is working on Argentina now he wants to get his hands on that oil and I guess help them pay off the bondholders in the US this isn't this is really a very interesting war that's going on and it's kind of like

36:15 You know, you're either with America and the UK. I'll just say UK because they're talking about getting out of the Union...out of the European Union and even there kind of like, no, I don't know what do you guys want to do? Germany who side do you want to be on? And it's really if you look at the division of the landmass We are documenting one of the biggest messes in the history of the United States on this show. Absolutely, absolutely! If you look and... Of course people never look at maps anymore but if you take a look and see Iran Syria Georgia Chechnya You can see all these divisions right where the lines are being drawn And again funny thing is currently it's really about the customer we're fighting over one customer The EU

37:02 That's what the fight is about. We want to bring gas to the customer from Qatar, and Israel-Palestine thing has a little bit to do with this as well I believe... So we want to bring gas up through Turkey and then gas up through Israel And we want to cut off the gas from Iran and Russia It's just fighting over the customer Stink customer. Yeah, it's a very big customer. It's a big one hell yeah and it gets cold Yeah, that's a very big one but all the people see is just the periphery you know and I didn't look at the Dutch and I love him man But we even here in Austin We went to a birthday party last night And when someone turns around and says to me

CHAPTER 13 / 46 Discussion

ISIS Terror Threats, Eli Roth Media Memes

Public discourse has been influenced by claims that ISIS is planning terrorist attacks in Norway, which some analysts view as a distraction. References are made to media projects by Eli Roth that incorporate current geopolitical memes into scripts. The discussion highlights how entertainment and news often overlap to shape public perception of international threats.

isis· norway· eli roth· media memes· pop culture

37:48 Wow, on your show you're probably going to be talking about how ISIS is gonna cause terrorist attacks in Norway. I'm like... People are so dumb and stupid They don't care they're not paying attention to anything Well, they are paying attention but they're being guided to pay the wrong attention. Exactly! Entertainment... here's an example this is um what does that show that Eli Roth is doing Hell Shriber or something it's some kind of a chat we'll probably I don't know anything about this ah it's some kind of actually just get a little bit of heat people are talking about it guess

38:30 Episodic show I'm gonna see if someone in the chat room knows what it is. We have like a 10-second delay Hell Helen fiber Helen Scriber, I'm not quite sure what it is And and they carry on all these memes in there that we always talk about which are kind of bullcrap certainly this one as It was just part of the script theory would have published research paper But department chairman was discovered homosexual which in Russia is not permitted to get to the point In Russia, but I missed it in Russia homosexual is not permitted Get to the point get to the point that is the point yeah obviously and then we have David Letterman you watch David Letterman don't you?

CHAPTER 14 / 46 Discussion

David Letterman, Norah O'Donnell Putin Discussion

During an appearance on David Letterman's show, CBS News anchor Norah O'Donnell discussed the escalating tensions with Vladimir Putin. Letterman joked about sending SEAL Team 6 to "kill the guy," reflecting a trend in popular culture toward aggressive rhetoric regarding the Russian leader. The segment is cited as an example of how complex international relations are simplified for television audiences.

david letterman· norah o'donnell· vladimir putin· seal team 6· cbs news

39:13 I occasionally do. Did you see he had the CBS News woman on, Nora? What's her name? No, I don't didn't watch that one. Here is Nora what's-her-name on The Letterman Show We really got ourselves in a box here now don't we? I think we have a huge...he's in a huge box right now it's also a test for this president but What's he going to do in the Middle East at the same time? But I think something is going to happen in the next week. I really do, there's a turning point here and Putin is going to decide to thumb his nose at the international community or he will pull back. He won't apologize. We've just come through 12 years of war that the United States has been committed to this smells like war but we're not gonna have another war This is a job for SEAL Team 6

40:02 kill the guy. Call him and kill the guy, that's all. Not advocating violence but he just... He is a psychopath! There you go. He doesn't care, just couldn't care less and sanctioned what does he care? He has got all of them. Yeah exactly. Seal team six yeah we'd like to schedule could we schedule a party We'd like you to deliver a pizza to Vladimir Putin. That's your popular culture, that's how it is being delivered! Oh yeah very well done. You want to control the public just give them bull crap like that? I'm a little disappointed in Letterman. Letterman always finishes those with, ya know, I don't really know anything anyway, so he does the disclaimer but of course nobody pays attention to that. Of course not. Meanwhile the IMF is making some noise

CHAPTER 15 / 46 Discussion

IMF Loan Conditions, Christine Lagarde Russian Bank Sanctions

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is pressuring Ukraine to pass new tax laws and implement austerity measures to maintain its $16 billion loan agreement. Simultaneously, international efforts led by figures like Christine Lagarde are targeting Russian banks with sanctions. These financial maneuvers are described as a "meta-mess" that most people only observe from a limited perspective.

imf· christine lagarde· russia· sanctions· banking· taxes

40:59 This is kind of funny. Well, you know things aren't really playing out the way we expected them to and you had all these things you were going to do and these sanctions and your spending more on military and your not really holding to the terms of that agreement there on that $16 billion loan so I think were gonna have to sell off some more stuff confiscate some stuff You need to pass some new laws on taxes The poor people I'm so bad. I don't understand how anyone can do business with them, but they do anyway because the guy gets a really big got some good salespeople in that and that IMF operation. Can you imagine if Christine Lagarde walked up to you? You'd be like, I think I think you'd be used to start taking off your clothes and wearing a barrel exactly

41:52 So they're attacking the Russian banks. This is another story on France 24, about this all... you know now they're going after the... They are only going after them... I haven't thought on this. Before we do that what are we going to say? You said something really important that we are documenting what did you say right now we're documenting the biggest I don't know. It was so prophetic! It was, i know what i said but i don't remember the exact that one word you're looking for We're documenting something very big here and yeah yeah you're right and we are somehow or as if we are seeing the meta mess we're seeing the mess from a large distance which most people are just seeing a little street angle they're just saying that they would there you know it's like most people are not given the opportunity

CHAPTER 16 / 46 Discussion

ISIS Female Mutilation Claims, Congressional War Powers Debate

An Illinois Republican congressman argued against restricting presidential war powers, citing reports of ISIS ordering female genital mutilation in Mosul. While some of these reports have been labeled as debunked propaganda, they are used to justify increased American air support for the Iraqi military. The debate centers on whether Congress should take responsibility for military intervention or allow the executive branch to lead.

isis· mosul· war powers· congress· iraq· propaganda

42:41 to and we go to the donation segment is a couple notes about this too that most people are not given the opportunity to take or to look at this whole world scene, the world seen from a different perspective. They have they're given their official perspective which is what's needed to control the public otherwise people would be voting out all there congressmen and all the rest of them have this one guy I gotta skip around. Sorry about that, you got to play this bonehead his name is from Illinois he wrote his name downstairs but they're coming up with some the Congress is trying to get back its powers to declare war and control these situations rather than the president being just making a decision and so this Republican douchebag actually arguing against the idea

43:34 thinking that it's better that Congress not get, have anything to do with this even though its important in the Constitution because then we'll get blamed. He says, really? Listen to this guy he's got all for one thing starts off with the female mutilation nonsense that supposedly ISIS has declared two things supposedly that's been reported This is just to rile up the American public. One, all Christians must convert! Ha ha ha... Okay I want to hear this. Or be killed. Oh nice. They're very conservative Islamic regimes you don't have to convert you just have to pay a huge tax to be any other religion Yeah it's in the Quran there was special little tax that you pay for and you don't get killed No no you must convert and if not then you'll be killed

44:26 And then the other one is now we demand female circumcision, which is a... Another meme that's out there. I love that! Which showed up and it has been debunked to everybody except this Republican but listen to this guy There was a march of jihadism and extremism that makes Al-Qaeda look like puppy dogs That's happening in Iraq A president who is indecisive on what to do We have genital mutilations ordered in Mosul just the other day by ISIS. And we're here in Washington, D.C., debating what we need to do to hamstring the president who's already indecisive enough about this. You know when American military, American Marines and Army get themselves into sustained combat they often call on strong air support to help them win the fight and that's why as well as a strong Marines and Army we have that's why were so good at what we do

45:22 We're asking the Iraqi military to take back their country and take land, but yet not providing them substantial air power that's needed to destroy this very evil cancer that is growing in the Middle East. That's what we ought to be here discussing today, is how to stop this cancer of jihadism and ISIS that's growing in the Middle East. How to stop that from growing and ultimately prevent it from coming here to the United States of America... What? ...and potentially to our allies. So I again strongly respect and fully understand what my chairman is doing here and appreciate his hard work

45:57 I think instead of giving the president an ability to blame Congress for his indecisiveness, I think it's time that we stand up and say we have to defend our interests. And defend people that want to defend themselves. With that, I yield back." Yes! Well playing right into that...I have two clips one is from former Department Homeland Security Deputy Director KT McFarland And she was doing some... She is all over the place by the way. I don't know why, she's a... All of sudden boom! Katy McFarlane is everywhere

CHAPTER 17 / 46 Discussion

KT McFarland, Southern Border Terrorist Infiltration Claims

Former Deputy Homeland Security Director KT McFarland warned that experienced fighters from Pakistan, Somalia, and Afghanistan are crossing the U.S. southern border. She suggested these individuals could coordinate with American passport holders to launch simultaneous "small-scale" attacks on shopping malls. This narrative is compared to a satirical Saturday Night Live sketch involving suburban jihadists.

kt mcfarland· homeland security· southern border· terrorism· jihadists

46:33 And she has a, the name is good. The branding's good. She's a good speaker. I mean, I don't know what she's doing but she's out there and this is her message. We now have indications that there are in the groups that are coming across the southern border, there are populations that come from very dangerous places Pakistan Afghanistan Somalia That's my concern In that porous southern border, what comes across is not just people who say well I want to take down the World Trade Center but it's numbers of people who could come across the United States. They're experienced fighters they know what they're doing and they could marry up with American passport holders and then you can see five years from now three years from now eight years from now you can see sustained

47:17 Bull crap! And continuous terrorist attacks in the United States. Not big ones, but little ones. Little ones is more dangerous than big ones. If you had the sense that there were 10 simultaneous attacks on American shopping centers across the country we all stay home and hide under the bed Oh really? That's it... There ya go So we have jihadists marrying up with Americans, with our dumb American chicks I guess. What a hot jihadist! Go marry him and then they integrate and then five years later we got 10 simultaneous attacks in the malls and we'd all be hiding at home under our beds. Why yes? What kind of insanity leads to this sort of thinking? There is freedom

48:01 That's what she does is that from I was Katie McFarland on the Thrones Then we know that did you see any of the way I just interrupted because of that last clip mm-hmm There was a I think this is about five or six years ago there was this and I don't like Saturday Night Live Because the bits are too long, and they don't know when to end them But there was a bit on Saturday night live where this scenario that she described was taking place in

48:40 These guys had married into these hot women, two of them. They marry these hot women and all living in the suburbs and they got good white collar jobs and they're driving SUVs and get the call And the guy is going, wait Abdullah are you sure? They were just fighting against this idea. I can't hear you! The line's busy! Hello Abdullah! Sign for Jihad! I've got the Sunday school to go to. Well, so the Aspen Security Conference was on and I have been watching as much as possible their servers were overloaded...I couldn't even get out tried to get the Dempsey stuff and luckily some people had downloaded it and got it to me but there was so much going on every single douchebag in the world then what is this Aspen security conference for anyway?

CHAPTER 18 / 46 Discussion

Aspen Security Conference, TSA Administrator Underwear Bomber Joke

At the Aspen Security Conference, TSA Administrator John Pistole discussed the 2009 "underwear bomber" incident with a cavalier tone. Pistole suggested the device failed because it had been worn for two weeks and its "efficacy was degraded" by poor hygiene. Critics found the joking manner of the discussion offensive given the invasive security measures implemented nationwide as a result of the attempt.

aspen security conference· john pistola· tsa· underwear bomber· security

49:34 I mean, do you know what this is about? Well it's not for skiing this time of year. No no but everyone's there. Some fishing...what do you think fish- there's a lot of good fishing up there. It must be a sales job of some sort and everybody is there and Dempsey he does an hour long and he's sitting back he's almost like leaning back in his chair like yo bitches! I'm Dempsey Look at my uniform, look at my Bakelite name tag. I got a bakelite name tag that says Dempsey! So i have tons of Dempsey clips but... ...I want to start with John Pistola the guy who runs our TSA

50:14 And there's this little bit which, from a perspective of we're all supposed to be incredibly afraid of this and but we now have all these extra security measures in place because of this. We have slave scanners, we have just incredible burden and violation of our dignity by the department this guy is running... For him to say the following about the underwear bomber really bothered me and someone needs to call him out on it. Hereby I call him out What is your understanding happened with the underwear bomber? Why did this, why did the plane not explode in a fiery ball of flames and crash to the ground killing everyone over United American skies John. What happens? The guy was fighting his crotch on fire and some of the passengers saw this and doused the fire and started to beat it then essentially captured the guy Oh really! That is not true John that's not what happened No?!

51:17 No, not according to the TSA guy. The guy who actually should be held responsible for... For the guy being on a plane in the first place? Here he is! How close was that 2009 bombing and why did it fail? It was very close. The Abdulmatal, you know the bomber had had the device with him for over two weeks and... Had he been wearing it for over two weeks? He had it with him for over two weeks Is that what I'm supposed to use? How do they know this?! It was damp is that the right word to use? I don't know like the fuse was bad Let's say it degraded It was degraded okay

51:56 Well, thank goodness for bad hygiene. Right? That's true. Let's just say its efficacy was degraded. How's that? You put that very well. Thank you. Smooth, okay! Alright I'll move on now from there... thank you! You're welcome! Okay! Alright so what? I wish hellfire on all these people sitting there laughing about this an entire nation has been put under duress because of this one instance and now the guy's saying he crapped his pants and was peeing in his pants and that's why it didn't go off really It's kinda what he said. Without saying it! Well, he makes jokes about it and she is in on the gag and ha-ha-ha... He was wearing for two weeks I find this so cavalier that its... That is disgusting. Well you know thats what they have to do I guess keep their jobs

CHAPTER 19 / 46 Discussion

General Martin Dempsey, NATO Eastern Flank Strategy

General Martin Dempsey addressed the Aspen Security Conference regarding the changing relationship between NATO and Russia. He emphasized that Europe should be concerned about both its eastern and southern flanks due to rising instability. Dempsey also touched on the historical debate regarding whether the U.S. promised Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand eastward, asserting no such formal promise was made.

martin dempsey· nato· russia· europe· military· gorbachev

52:53 You want to...shall we do a couple of Dempsey things? I think it's really good listening. Yeah, but I didn't hear any of the stuff so i would be interested in what Dempsey has to say Okay um first let me see..I think this is Dempsey If words alone could stem the tide Oh no! I'm sorry that's something else That's not Dempsey No that's not Dempsey I will put that into a different folder where it belongs okay Let's see Dempsey The first thing he does very interesting in looking at the EU as the customer. Are you going to be a customer of Russia and those guys? You're gonna be our customer?" He speaks about the EU in very specific terms, which we'll see if you catch it. It seems pretty obvious to me. And at this point given all the dire warnings about ISIS isn't Assad the lesser of the two evils and does it make sense to join up with him to defeat this enemy of ours now

53:48 Well, I mean look that's a policy question but given the fact that in my role as chairman. I actually participate in fora where policy decisions are made. I just don't think that I'm just some kind of you know dickhead here. Some schmuck Yeah, I do participate. I'm actually running the show have you seen my name played? Made a bag light? Look at my medals! You want to kiss my medals? Certainly wouldn't be one that would suggest that we find the lesser of two evils here. I think there's enough credible partners in the region, in Europe... I mean look Europe ought to be excited about as excited about this as we are

54:25 because... Yeah, but they're not. Well no but they should be and you know you're gonna ask me a question in a moment I think about their eastern flank But they ought to be concerned about their southern flank as much of the effect of this instability and violence is making its way into Europe's southern flank. I just believe that with the right effort we can find enough partners both in the region and outside of it who are credible In order to put the kind of pressure when need to on this organization So when you're talking about eastern flank, southern flank those are very specific military terms. Yeah And he's essentially saying you're surrounded and we're help where should be delighted that we're helping ya. Delighted you should be!

55:10 Or do I misread that? I don't know. The NATO thing is really what's supposed to be protecting them and they're expanding, the NATO is getting bigger which is not... Well not yet. Not really. You know the meme that goes around especially amongst the right that we promised that we weren't going to move eastward to the Russians at some point in part of a quid pro quo that was done with Gorbachev. Well, there has of course been a change in the relationship John! Well I found it turns out that we never made that promise. Oh really? Did we have our fingers crossed behind your back

CHAPTER 20 / 46 Discussion

Russian Military Proficiency, Putin and Ethnic Nationalism

General Martin Dempsey noted that since 2008, the Russian military has significantly increased its proficiency in long-range aviation and cruise missile testing. He expressed concern that Vladimir Putin may be inciting ethnic nationalism that could eventually spiral out of his control. The shift in Russian activity is seen as a move to assert power differently across Europe and toward the United States.

vladimir putin· russian military· nationalism· crimea· aviation

55:48 No, no. We never said anything but it was the Germans that did it on their own. Oh yeah damn and some day see how much Schmidt I believe one of them Cole said or could have been okay? I don't have in front of me But whatever was he say yeah now I'll tell you here's the deal we won't do And so are you speaking for NATO know not really but I'm pretty sure didn't get this to work It was nonsense. We never made that promise So um and it was that's why it's not in writing because it was never done Well, here is the top military guy essentially showing us that there's been a change in the relationship obviously but he's going to document it for us now. Dempsey. Dempsey in this forum Our concerns are not just about eastern Ukraine I mean this was a change in the relationship of Europe

56:41 and Russia, and the change in relationship of the United States and Russia. I can't define for you today as I sit here what that change means but i can certainly tell you that there is a change...there must be now a change in that relationship look since 2008 the Russian military has increased its capability it's increased its proficiency and it has increased the level of its activities, long-range aviation air launch cruise missile testing. They clearly are on a path to assert themselves differently not just in Eastern Europe but in Europe, in the main and toward the United States now I don't know where that takes us right now but if you're asking me do I think there's been a change in their relationship? I would have to say absolutely

57:38 Okay, and there's always something that we need to put in as a fear. We need to make people very afraid of things My fear is actually... you know if I have a fear about this it's that Putin may actually light a fire that he loses control over In other words these ethnic enclaves There is a rising tide of nationalism And nationalism can be a very dangerous instinct and impulse. But we also, I think probably should recognize that our concerns are not just about Eastern Ukraine... I mean this is a change in the relationship of Europe and... Oh hold on second, that's f**k! That goes into the other clip. Damn!

58:28 I want to hear the rest of that. I think it's what i just played before Russia and a change in the relationship of The United States, yeah that's what I play Russian. I can't define... He had this thing about the apocalyptic thinking of them- I'm sorry man that pisses me off! I don't know what happened. Just get tell us you yeah boy he essentially said there's this apocalyptic thinking uh all around and it's not just it's basically everybody else You know, in the Middle East everyone on the Russian side you're either with them or you're with the enemy. It was this weird thing that it doesn't work without me getting the clip for ya I'll get it for Thursday there's so much more from this conference...I'm sorry that clip somehow just messed up and what happened there. Well let me bring something then that has a clip to confirms one couple of your memes that you like.

CHAPTER 21 / 46 Discussion

Bill Ayers Megyn Kelly Interview, US Foreign Policy Clients

Megyn Kelly interviewed former Weather Underground member Bill Ayers, who criticized President Obama's drone warfare and foreign policy. Ayers argued that the U.S. historically blames its "brown" clients, such as Nouri al-Maliki or Ngo Dinh Diem, when interventions fail. The interview was criticized for its aggressive editing and the inclusion of Dinesh D'Souza to counter Ayers' claims.

bill ayers· megyn kelly· fox news· dinesh d'souza· al-maliki· vietnam

59:24 So there was a very strange show on Fox. Megyn Kelly kind of bumped her own show for an exclusive interview with, of all people Bill Ayers This is the guy who influenced our president? Well yeah but he was also the guy that was the weather underground bombed the Pentagon He did...He was you know American terrorist! He was a radical in his day Yeah and still is But not so much that's gonna bomb anybody it seems So she did a half-hour interview and then you realize that Megyn Kelly, as pretty as she is and all the rest of it Is really a crappy interviewer. Instead of bringing the guy out She just attacked him the whole half hour. Oh okay I hate that

1:00:07 And it's just attack, attack, attack. He said stuff like Obama is one of the worst presidents he has got these droning people running these crazy wars essentially taking a Fox News anti-Obama side that she couldn't even deal with that Because it was like wait a minute. He's he would be saying this is probably good stuff I should be agreeing with him here, but no she just continues her attack in Iraq because for example Wait wait wait wait. I'm sorry that's not the clip and Debbie that's the clip of this time you haven't done now even halfway there Oh, I'm sorry so she goes on attacking and attacking and And then they bring in then they finish the interview off and yet neb lichen the guy a little bit cuz he's pretty honest

1:00:53 She accuses him of stuff he didn't do and all the rest. Then they bring in Denise D'Souza, who's really is the go-to guy for the intellectuals who want to just be pro right wing. And they get into this little argument—him and D'Souza—and Ayers brings up about two points that you're commonly making about brown people. She of course doesn't take any, she jumps over them as some sort of a racist for bringing this up and he makes a very interesting assertion about our relationship to some of these people we put in place specifically Maliki and I suggest it might happen to the Turkish guy assassination

1:01:39 I didn't think about this and you can play the clip and you'll see what i'm talking about. Because the moment we got to- We kicked out, which is incidentally the entire history of the last 50 years of American foreign policy is that we go in under the guise of being beneficent and benign. And then we get booted out and what do we do? We blame the brown guy so it's al Maliki. I hope Al Maliki has read his History Of Vietnam and sees what happened at DiEM. Do you think we're blaming Al Maliki for the mess in Iraq because he's brown? Is that what you think?

1:02:28 I think that we always blame our clients. That's what i'm saying. So the United States... That's a generalization, do you think we're blaming Al-Maliki for the mess in Iraq because he is brown? Absolutely! I think we blame our clients and our clients happen to be brown so Diem, I hope Malikis read about Vietnam Diem got a bullet in the head from Kennedy and that was because he had failed in Vietnam We hadn't failed, we were perfect Wow Yeah. She's oblivious to any of this analysis and she is just attacking him, it's just a... I love this! It's just terrible at this interview and she was so proud of herself. She did interstitials where they said next day I call him out for being a bastard

1:03:13 and then they go back to the interview, and then she- they throw her in again. You know doing an interstitial standing doing a stand up saying... And then in the next part after this break we're going to talk to him about this and she's just beating Beaming at your... Well, that is the hallmark of a crappy interview that didn't go your way where you're going to chop it up and do your little voiceover thingies. Your little interstitials to make it look good for you. That's an old television trick. Didn't work! Yeah well that is borderline clip of the day I love the we like to kill our clients. That was great. I found the Dempsey clip I was looking for Okay we can go back to that

CHAPTER 22 / 46 Discussion

ISIS Caliphate Aspirations, Sunni Moderate Rejection Strategy

General Martin Dempsey explained that ISIS leaders view themselves as the heirs to a caliphate stretching from Lebanon to Kuwait. He argued that the group relies on continuous success to maintain religious legitimacy and must be defeated from within by moderate Sunni populations. The analysis suggests that while the U.S. can assist, the ultimate rejection of the group's apocalyptic narrative must be regional.

isis· caliphate· sunni· martin dempsey· sharia law· al-sham

1:03:50 I think it's important for us to understand that as we look at these groups, whether we call them Salafist, Jihadists or religious extremists or violent extremists It's important to both recognize the differences among them, because they are different. Some of them are opportunistic some of them seek to establish a sense of political Islam and theocracies under Sharia law and some of them are apocalyptic actually meaning that have such a world view that it becomes of a magnitude that makes them, I think especially dangerous. And ISIS and as you know the S, the last S is the Islamic State of Iraq and Al-Sham. The ancient kingdom of Al-Sham stretched from Lebanon to the current state of Israel to Syria to Jordan to Iraq into Kuwait so this is a group that has aspirations

1:04:52 and seeks a sense of religious legitimacy. And that sense of legitimate, of religious legitimacy is as the heir to the caliphate they actually at least the senior leaders of ISIS believe themselves to be the heir to the caliphate They can only sustain that religious legitimacy if they continue to succeed. So this is not a group that can go halfway, it has to keep moving toward its ultimate end of days apocalyptic narrative or it will lose support because it loses religious legitimacy. They're extraordinarily exclusive you are not part of them unless you believe exactly what they believe. Now when I heard that

1:05:38 It reminded me of something else. We said you are not part of them, what did he say exactly? You're not part of them unless you believe exactly what they believe. Legitimacy! They're extraordinarily exclusive...you are NOT part of them unless you believe EXACTLY what they believe. Either you were with us or you were with the terrorists. I just want to make sure exactly the same thing, exactly the same George Bush brutality in a way that's quite remarkable even in the realm of terrorist organizations. I love that meme You mean they kill people in other ways? What is so bad... They kill people, everybody else kills people. And they get away with it because they're succeeding! They have to be at the very least initially contained and then disrupted and then ultimately defeated. An what makes it very hard is that ultimate defeat has to come from within the Sunni population

1:06:34 It can't come from us. Well, it can be enabled and assisted by us but at the point when we will be able to consider them defeated it'll be because the moderate Sunnis of the world and the region reject them." And I thought that was a pretty good spiel. I'm not buying that! Of course not but I thought is a good spiel for the way he needs to project to the world. Could be... Yeah, these are businessmen they really are They're doing deals, they've got Turkey's embassy. They've rented that and you know they've got a long-term lease. Mark, it was the Kurds who rented that? You are correct but didn't ISIS set the Kurds up? Yeah they said the Kurds up but they're not part of their... The Kurds are not part of that group well just there just the guys do in oil. They're bulldozers or whatever yeah these guys do the oil we make it all happen for ya

CHAPTER 23 / 46 Discussion

ISIS as Geopolitical Proxy, Resource Extraction Units

Speculation exists that ISIS may be acting as a proxy for globalist interests to facilitate resource extraction in the Middle East. By centralizing power into a definable "state," the group makes it easier for international forces to eventually target them or use them to block Russian and Iranian influence. The movement of the group into strategic oil regions like Kirkuk and Homs supports this theory of managed conflict.

isis· cia· pentagon· syria· kurds· oil

1:07:30 So it's... I would wonder whether or not ISIS is a proxy for some CIA scam. It seems, that seems so obvious to me and more Pentagon, I would say it's the part of the resource extraction unit go ahead and break everything open and get us this and you know they're now back in Syria Because for one thing we question that never comes up I brought it up on a show right away And I think you would agree with this. Why aren't, you know to encourage the formation of a new caliphate and that's going to be flowing onto our shores any minute for some reason? They're gonna come right over here because they're in the middle of nowhere and they're gonna come right over here somehow on rowboats... Because we got so much to gain over here! Yeah, they're gonna turn this into the Caliphate II

1:08:19 But it seems to me if they're gonna have a centralized government that's going to take over as huge part of an area That's going and then it's gonna be centralized because it's gonna beat the caliphate. It would be better than all these asymmetric battles that we keep taking with these little into you know These lone wolves and all these other a-holes that are just floating around doing God knows what You can't keep but keep track them this group being kept track of once it would be easier to attack a nation or than it is to attack an amorphous group that you can't put your finger on. And so we, why isn't somebody asked the question in one of these press conferences? Isn't this better as ISIS group because they're going to become a country or some sort of phony country that we can find would be easier to knock them out because they have an army that's very definable and that's what we're good at. We can take out that army. It seems to me that they are working on our behalf

1:09:12 Yeah, they've set up... It's not fishy about this whole system. No no, we got to Kirkuk and the Kurds have set it all up and the oil is flowing and now they're back in Homs in Syria so if they're gonna open that up for us and block Iran and Russia? But it's clear that they're working for us I say for the globalists who run in place in Washington Now that will actually lead us into Hamas but I think we should take a little break here first We've been... it's so much fun as we document the mega, the meta mass. The Meta Mess

CHAPTER 24 / 46 Discussion

No Agenda Knighting Ceremony, Sir Serendipity and Sir John

A formal knighthood ceremony was held for producers Pedro Vaz (Sir Serendipity) and John Adams (Sir John of Stratford). Pedro, a resident of the Netherlands originally from Portugal, shared his history of listening to Adam Curry since the 1980s. The ceremony included traditional "No Agenda" gifts such as Port wine and Portuguese olive oil, alongside a plug for rental apartments in The Hague.

1:09:51 The Metamysm of the 21st century. Yeah, which no one else is really seeing that way I guess... Nobody cares! They got advertisers! I'd like to say in the morning to you John C. Dvorak In the morning to you Adam Curry and in the morning to all ships and sea boots on the ground feeding their subs in the water And all the dames and knights out there. And in the morning to everyone in the chat room. Chat rooms weird today. I don't know what's going on there I think we have, uh... I think we have disruptors coming in. NoahJennerStream.com We gotta get some way of eliminating these phonies Yeah no people- I saw some kicking going on it's fine It's just not very helpful for the show In the morning to all our artists Thank you very much Patrick Buisch who brought us the artwork for episode 637 which was

1:10:41 how quickly we forget. By the way, I love it when you send us pictures of the show playing in your car on your in-car stereo with the artwork yeah this was the...I like this piece of art actually It was the big hand on the big turning knob to have the gas being connected between the EU and Russia Oh right that one actually is very symbolic good piece Very nice piece You can find all the art submitted at NoahArtGenerator.com We use a lot of that for newsletters and of course you can just use it for...it's pretty printed out hanging up around the house at school. I recommend it! Key posters Now as John said we don't have advertisers which is why we can talk as long as they want do whatever we want as long as there are no hard breaks

1:11:31 Which also means we can't really... there's no bathroom breaks. Well, that is the determinant factor for the length of the show often. Correct. The older we get, the shorter the show. There you go! So we do have people who keep the show running, donors, people who give whatever they feel is appropriate for the value they receive from the show It's a very small percentage, but the people who do donate help us out tremendously. And just like Hollywood we have credits at the beginning of every show more or less these are opening credits We had a long teaser for the show well into the first hour and these are executive producers and associate executive producers and we of course highly appreciate what they do for us and We're giving them their credits right up front and we read their entire notes since we don't have cool things like Hollywood has like you know

1:12:23 Drugs and actresses you can hang out with and cool rap parties. This is the best we can do Well, let's thank a few people please from Coimbra Portugal Pedro Vaz Is our instant night Wow this is our guy Pedro or is this different guy? No, there's not our guy Pedro. There's another guy he is now yeah He's now the man wow Apparently, Queen Bra is famous for its university founded in 1290. That's what you call having a history. Yeah for real he lives in the Netherlands though and he's married to a Dutch babe. Hey now! In general the weather of food and socialist mentality around here are pretty bad. Yeah the food... Not necessarily that order yeah the food needs work

1:13:20 But having lived in Elzo, I don't know. I went to all the...I went with Ailman to all these fancy restaurants up and down the whole country And if you go to expensive cool restaurants, the food's pretty good Anyway but it's not cheap Yeah and Ailman But I lived in nine different countries so far, including three years in the United States. So I can say the country does work with an above average efficiency more details in future donations. I first heard about no agenda on Twitter three years ago and never cared to listen. Just irksome. The recurring now twice a week joke made it happen a year ago." You know isn't it crazy how that the lamest things always work? Yeah

1:14:07 Yeah, I know. And that's about as lame as anything ever done because you know we become so jaded by doing things over and over again for a very long time and you think oh man really? That'll never be a hit record! That's so hokey... You know like Justin Bieber crap and it works When I heard Adam Curry's name on the show, I couldn't believe it was the same guy from Countdown that I used to religiously watch back in 86 on the short-lived Europa TV. That's right! I was a celebrity in Portugal. I loved your show Adam! Aww... I learned English because of you man! Obrigado

1:14:46 Anyway, following No Agenda for the first time was hard. You were dissecting news with strange jingles and you had producer donation segments where people would ask for two to the head! I was about to give up when a producer asked for The Noodle Guy clip Then this reverse MKUltra deprogrammed and released me from the systematic mass media indoctrination. It worked! I have been trying to hit people in the mouth, but even with your mind-blowing analysis of the resource and weather wars it has been hard really hard

1:15:24 People in general drones just regurgitate whatever they hear in the media. They simply don't care as a recognition for your hard work Here's my late donation sorry it took so long I would like to be a no, I would like to be known as sir and dipity cute serendipity oh Hey, yo nice And if you have a stock and if you have it If you haven't in stock bathed me with port in my knighthood ceremony What? Port. Port wine. Oh, that would have to be port and what do we put...what can we hand out along with port? Port and olive oil Yeah thats not quite the same as hookers and blow but you know I could add it But its good olive oil in Portugal In fact i recommend people when they go looking for good quality extra virgin olive oil look for the Portuguese stuff if they have it at a specialty shop I shall make it cheap! Port and Portuguese Olive Oil

1:16:22 Yeah, that would be good. I mean it's very inexpensive everything coming out of Portugal is very inexpensive as they underprice everything they've never figured out pricing so... When i was a celebrity in Portugal the restaurants would and this is when it was the third world country essentially in 86 It was even before that, I think 85. And you know restaurants would send what they considered a limo to come and please have dinner at our restaurant! And the guy...I think we talked about this years ago and they gave me a bottle of port wine which was bottled on my birthday September 3rd 1964. And i think when I turned 40 I opened it and drank

1:17:08 And? Total crap! Well, 64 was not a good year. Yes and I think that's what you said when we discussed it previously. 63 if you were born a year earlier in 63 that was one of the greatest port vintages ever. There ya go. 63 66 was good 70 was really good too and then 77 was a stunner but uh... 64 no there is no way that one is going to be any good. It wasn't anybody's fault. It's a dud year Not necessarily. 64 Chateau Petrus out of Bordeaux, you'd have one of the great experiences of your life. Anyway sorry it is not important. Anyways, sorry it took so long today as our daughter Sarah's second birthday we're expecting our second human resource make sure she's on the list

Christine Lagarde Numerology, Siri Hades Prediction

Listeners analyzed a speech by Christine Lagarde through the lens of numerology, linking the number seven to the date July 27th. A viral claim suggests that asking Apple's Siri "what happens on July 27th" results in the answer "opening the gates of Hades." This coincidence is discussed alongside the inversion of numbers to reach "666."

Oh, yeah great Chris the Viking says hey Adam I wanted to chime in on the number string from Christine Lagarde and

1:30:14 Oh yeah, we actually had a lot of people chime in on this. He has a very interesting calculation but I'm kind of going to paraphrase and the clip you played on YouTube a few times...I got July 27th from it which is today First she refers to 7 as a standalone number then she stated the odd G7 or g20 since the seven was established the second seven should be used with the 20 making 27 which is 9. The twenty-seventh is no it is The thing that really caught my attention is, if you ask Siri... I don't have an iPhone. If you ask Siri what happens on July 27th? Siri answers opening the gates of Hades. H-A-D-E-S. Hades or Hades? Hades! So apparently if you asked Siri that's the iPhone fake woman what happens on July 27 and I encourage people to do that

1:31:12 Siri answers, opening the gates of Hades. Wow! And then he goes on... That's today? Yes! In numerology the symbols or numbers can be inverted or mirror imaged and even reduced so if you reduce 27 to its root of three nines and invert them six six six...

And in one of the shows you asked about how Americans could take knighthoods from the Queen of England given that we are prohibited from having any royal titles?

1:32:00 The fact of the matter is that Americans can't legally receive knighthoods. Instead, they are given as honorary knighthoods with a medal and no real legal status. Basically that means your knighthoods are as legit as those from the Queen and she doesn't even make people executive producers! Exactly you got to benefit We got a better, yes we're better.

Honorary Knighthoods, Rolling Coal in Texas

A discussion on the legality of knighthoods for Americans noted that titles from the Queen of England are merely honorary with no legal status. Separately, the trend of "rolling coal"—modifying diesel trucks to emit thick black smoke at hybrid cars and cyclists—is criticized as a toxic "redneck" practice prevalent in parts of Texas and the Midwest.

I don't know why he condemned you, you got nothing to do with the liberals in Austin. But here is what...I've seen some YouTube videos now and I guess this started with the battery cars and of course I'm all against battery cars that you modify your truck and then you...

Pim Ohm Email Dispute, Anthony Bourdain "Layover" Theory

A long-time correspondent named Pim Ohm sent an aggressive email criticizing one of the hosts as an "arrogant elitist" and questioning their pilot's license. In a separate media critique, Anthony Bourdain's show "Layover" is cited for his observation that celebrities often have "freakishly skinny" bodies and disproportionately large heads to look better on camera.

1:33:32 But I saw videos of guys doing it to bicyclists and assholes. I don't like... Yeah, the guy's biking on the road like ha-ha-ha! Fuck those bikers we're gonna get black smoke in their face It's really irritating it's a real redneck shit thing to do Well it's a really bad thing to do because the particulate that comes out is just a lot of carbon but there are other particulates Yeah its poisonous Its actually toxic And that's not good. I haven't gotten one of these emails in a long time, but this comes from someone I've answered emails from and sent e-mails to for a couple years and this email was so out of the blue when i wanted to find out if you could help me decipher what happened is from Pim Ohm O H M. I don't know if he donated or not... The title is uh I'm out dot dot dot

1:34:24 Well, I gave it a try but you are by far the biggest arrogant elitist cocksucker around. And I wouldn't pound my chest as much over being an aviator You're a hobby pilot with a bot license which probably isn't valid anymore anyway! I wouldn't trust you taxiing a Cessna on a clear day Good luck What? Yeah! Why?! Well, and I asked him why. And then he didn't respond for a day and I said well as expected no reply just that chicken shit accusation low-life that's me right because I'm into this am i trying to understand what does this come from his response sorry for not responding right away like you always do unfortunately I'm surprised it is not the guy with the gruffer voice

1:35:07 Sorry for... let me try him. Sorry for not responding right away like you always do, unfortunately! I think the other voice sounds more realistic. Sorry for responding right away like YOU always do Unfortunately, I have to work for a living Implying we don't But you hit the nail on the head Low life If this conversation in German You would've called me an untermensch So i guess.. I said something on the show that somehow referred to maybe a Nazi or something? Is he from Germany? No, I don't think so. I don't know! He's like... This went on for a while and I got bored of it because well tell me- You can find the IP addresses in your head or you figure out what country is in. Yeah but that would be too much work. Yeah, I guess. Why don't you just tell me what you're pissed off about? Maybe something about Ukraine or the neo Nazis whatever. No no. He says, I'm surprised John didn't call you out on it. On what?! Whatever it is

1:36:06 Whatever and you ever once a while. You say something I'm tempted to call you out on but it's it's usually some passing thing You will say occasional things that are kind of funny mm-hmm, and its humor yeah If just anything is important, I'll call you out on it But as this obviously wasn't well he's really pissed off some hate him off something you said It happens to me too once in a while I get a letter like this. Some little thing that was just in his craw and you just pushed it in deeper somehow." And that's why I responded because I've had correspondence with him for several years, and I figured maybe his wife left him he ran over his dog... This happens! And then people go, oh sorry man. Yeah yeah that happens

1:36:51 But no, he's like riddle me this if you can figure it out. I'll donate $33 a month. You know what? I'm done with you. What is that wasn't on there yeah Yeah, oh yeah it kept going thats stupid okay we don't know whatever im sorry Okay whatever Im sorry you had to read that note Well I felt I should read it because maybe someone could help me out I don't think it's possible. Okay, I've done something for our show today. First of all you need to play some clips. I need to be entertained Oh okay Let's see, I got the Barbara Boxer. You want an entertaining one? Here we go! Just to make you feel better, Anthony Bourdain has a new show where he has like a stopover. He had an hour in some city that was supposed to be like a stopover so he rents a car and goes all over the place which is impossible. This is The Cooking Guy on CNN? Yeah, The Cooking Guy but he's got a new show called Stop Over Lay Over I think it's the name of it And this is on CNN? Can I ask you a question before you lead into this

CHAPTER 30 / 46 Discussion

General Michael Hayden, CNN Technical Glitch

Former CIA Director Michael Hayden appeared on CNN with Erin Burnett to discuss Vladimir Putin's actions in Crimea and Odessa. During the interview, Hayden stated, "this part now Aaron I'm making up a bit," immediately after which the satellite feed was cut. The timing of the technical failure led to speculation about whether the control room intentionally pulled the plug on his unscripted remarks.

michael hayden· cnn· erin burnett· putin· crimea· odessa

1:37:51 Why is it that on the news channel CNN we don't have news, on MTV the music channel we do not have music, on The History Channel we don't have history. There's no discoveries on The Discovery Channel When did this memo go out? Yeah, it's called ratings. Ah yes okay now so Bourdain is going on about something that's confirming one of your basic theories of the entertainment business he's got a little different than you have it but the main thesis is exactly what you're always saying. Nope hit it I'm trying to think what I'm always saying. You'll get it

1:38:37 13 hours until my plane and uncharacteristically for me, I'm heading to Hollywood Boulevard. The very heart of the desperate touristy moronic inferno You know what's really amazing about celebrities? They're not just short But they're really tiny. They're really, really skinny because the camera adds 10 pounds. Believe me! So they are all freakishly skinny and tiny short with huge heads. Yeah! Big head equals success direct proportion tiny body big Exactly. This is it, the bigger the head the more success! That's what he said? I was stunned! He is obviously a very intelligent entertainment executive... I'm always looking for a big head your heads pretty big you're good you look good on TV yeah it's not massive but its big enough Yeah I think it's just big enough that it's okay and I knew that this was really true when I met Pat Sajak and Vanna White

1:39:40 Vanna White is a teeny little girl, but her head is so big. You'd imagine she would tip over. That's exactly what he said! Yeah you imagine she would tip over and go like... It's just the head is... You know how like a baby can't hold his head up? Yeah. That's when you look at Vanna White in person It's like, hey girl do you want me to hold that head or something? She could have rolled over on your shoulder and snap. So I got a clip of this is the by one of my favorite clips of this show This is General Hayden with Aaron on CNN. Hey, you know the ex-CIA guy guys should be indicted The pro torture guy

1:40:19 Who keeps showing up to make he's now an aspen it that that is oh, yeah event you're at and he and then And he's also he does he doesn't know how those moderation I guess that's a part of it. He can do like moderate panels Yeah So he decides he's gonna start talking with Aaron about some of these issues that are going on in the world But yeah, I think it's Ukraine mainly but he he's decided he's gonna tell her he's gonna actually go off script and start making things up. He says, I'm going to make some stuff up! This is he's imagining what was really going on. Is gonna express that on CNN? And here's what happens. Here are either Vladimir Putin is positive Europe's gonna do nothing to stop him in the United States is going to be a bit of a eunuch about this or the Vladimir Putin is actually losing power himself and this situation may be beyond his control and that could be much much scarier which do you think it is

1:41:10 Well, there's a sequence here Aaron. You saw what he did in the Crimea. Illegal but quite masterful and then I think he began to fear that he was losing control of his proxies in the Ukraine Remember the big riots in Odessa where 40 people were killed? He went a little quiet then reduced the number of troops on the border even said a few positive things about the Ukrainian government And then in late June, early July the Ukrainians got their military act together. They began to push against the separatists they had very good military success and this part now Aaron I'm making up a bit. Alright looks like we just lost the general again at least he was able to answer those questions and i'm sorry that you had to have lost him there wait a minute

1:42:03 So you're telling me that he's on CNN, he says I'm gonna make some crap up right now and then the control room goes oh no pull the plug? You can listen to it this is what it looks like to me. Wow yeah and why not why not I wonder what he was going to make up. I don't know, but it was probably... They didn't want it! Whatever it was. I like how he kind of skips over this part of the... And by the way did he say THE Crimea? The Crimea and THE Ukraine? Really this is the guy who's in charge of stuff?! Well I can say

CHAPTER 31 / 46 Discussion

Hillary Clinton 2011 Al Jazeera Praise, Health Speculation

A 2011 clip of Hillary Clinton praising Al Jazeera for providing "real news" compared to American media is contrasted with her more recent public appearances. Observers noted a significant change in her energy levels and vocal "liveliness" between 2011 and 2014. This shift has fueled ongoing speculation regarding her physical health and potential neurological issues.

hillary clinton· al jazeera· media· brain damage· 2011

1:42:53 I do have this clip from 2011. This is Hillary's commentary where Al Jazeera is great to watch, remember when she said that? Two things about this clip that are interesting to me. This was done in 2011, one is that she says Al Jazeera is a good news source compared to the American media which is bull crap but it's the life in her voice which seems to have disappeared She is lively in 2011! This is 2014 she is now sounding like I think the brain damage thing may have some validity Listen to her Viewership of Al Jazeera going up in the United States because its real news

1:43:39 You may not agree with it, but you feel like you're getting real news around the clock instead of a million commercials and arguments between talking heads and the kind of stuff that we do on our news which is not particularly informative to us let alone foreigners. Well she was amped up! I think when you're doing all the travel, look at Kerry. He's now doing the same job essentially he's amped up He's running around yeah i think they were also amped up for more reasons than just running around drugs absolutely Absolutely that gotta have there's no way you can survive this as a human being it's like being on tour You have to get your guys are all but yes sleeping pills

CHAPTER 32 / 46 Discussion

Gaza Conflict Analysis, Mediterranean Gas Reserves

The conflict between Israel and Hamas is analyzed through the lens of a June 2nd Palestinian unity government and the blockade of supply tunnels by Egypt's Sisi administration. Beyond the immediate violence, a major factor is the "Levant" gas reserves off the coast of Gaza, Israel, and Lebanon. Companies like Noble Energy and British Gas are involved in the exploitation of these fields, which are valued as a strategic alternative for the European market.

hamas· gaza· israel· egypt· levant· natural gas· noble energy

1:44:22 What do you call it? Amphetamines. Adderall. Maybe adderall, yeah. Well it's just amphetamines! Yes and that's the only ingredient in adderall isn't it?! Yeah I know, it's a joke! Amphetamine right!? It says it right there on the bottle. Um...I took a little time because we've kind of been avoiding it and I don't think we can anymore to just evaluate and do a quick analysis of the most recent Israel-Palestine thing, Hamas. Because basically all we're seeing on television is just a whole bunch of people yelling and it's confusing to me because this essentially ruins one of the main conspiracy theories of the media age which is that Jews control the media and that clearly cannot be the case

1:45:14 Because the media is essentially calling Israel out as, you know killers. Baby killers! And to the huge chagrin of the leaders of Israel and As I kind of hunted around I see people say oh this started with the three teenagers who were kidnapped It turns out there was something else that happened just last month that...I think we just have not tuned into it And I find the whole situation annoying and all my life, I've seen this bullcrap going on there. But there is something very specific that's happened. I just wanted to lay it out as... It was not really...I have no answer or anything but it's a little bit of analysis because we have this Israeli Defense Forces and the Palestinians which could be Hamas so by the way I love pronouncing Hamas because that's how you...it's almost like Dutch. Hamas? And I can do that? Can you say Hamas?

1:46:12 Hamas. So this happened in 2012, 2009 the joke is it's time to mow the grass again but it's always kind of the same result massive civilian casualties and Gaza infrastructure losses and big international image problems for Israel This time though it seems a little bit worse and I wanted to understand what all the pieces were, and why Kerry was in Egypt. And now I understand much better also you do have to...I hate to say it but people you got to get the map You've got to look at Gaza where it is and you see that borders on Egypt But which you know? You don't really think of that if you don't look at it. You'll never know you're not being told by your media

1:46:56 So Israel has always wanted to keep kind of the status quo and this goes back to what you said about it's better to have ISIS kind of as a Managed entity so that, you know You don't have a whole bunch of crazy groups running around and Hamas in a way is bit like that Because you have all you know lots of crazy groups and they're kind of keeping them in check And Palestine and the Gaza region, they do have an actual kind of form of government. They have civil servants and there's a payroll which is all part of this most recent problem but up until last month there has always been this kind of division on the governance of Palestine you had Abbas with his Fatah political party and you had the fundamentalist Hamas

1:47:41 And, you know this is... they've always kind of been split. They've always been I think 2007 they have been at odds which is advantageous to Israel because there was never really one big strong governmental front coming out of this region small part of the region but something changed and that is on June 2nd the Palestinians formed a unity government. And we didn't discuss this, and I quite honestly can remember the word unity government but i didn't really look at it or think about it did you hear about this? Yeah of course! This is when Hamas got their head in the tent. Yeah but I didn't understand that this had happened so

1:48:25 Before this unity government, you had the two separate governments. The Fatah mainly in the West Bank and Hamas in the Gaza Strip And so of course no one likes this. The Israeli government obviously condemned the unity government because it says how Hamas is a terrorist organization and This kind of started around 2011 Arab Spring etc etc now at the time We had Morsi in Egypt from the Muslim Brotherhood good pals of Hamas And they have all these tunnels going from Egypt supplying everything into Gaza, money weapons food medicine lions I'm doing research like two lions coming through a tunnel. This is crazy What? Yeah smuggling lions in and who knows pets i don't know uh and then of course this has to be looked into yeah i linked in the show notes Then the power in egypt changed Sisi came into power

1:49:23 And the Muslim Brotherhood was categorized as a terrorist group. And then all the supply tunnels that went underneath the border were blocked, so there's nothing going in! You recall there was I think it was a Dutch politician or ambassador and he was trying to get the payroll for Hamas and the unity government paid by Qatar through some end around...and that was blocked of course Qatar you know everyone is big supporters of Hamas So what's happening now? Now i finally understand is there's this standoff where you have, and I think that's what Kerry is trying to do. You have nothing coming in so these people are maybe even starving for all I know. There's nothing coming in they're shooting off as many rockets as they can and that's really the part where the media picks it up oh they're shooting rockets but you know there's 1.7 million people with nothing coming in you can't do this very long So either you have to let them have something

1:50:20 or kill them all, or they're going to run out and it will be an intifada essentially. which would be the most horrific thing in the world. And I think that is what the real crisis is right now, and no one's really explaining it that way because all you continuously see is just rockets this rockets that dead babies... So now at least you understand where you have this region that has been blocked off by Egypt and I think something has to happen there But there's a secondary problem which I didn't really buy into until i started to research it a little bit more and this ties into a much larger scenario about the gas off the Israeli...off that entire region, really of the Mediterranean. And I'll just call it the Levant if you don't mind just using ISIS-ISIL term So we have this gas and what I found out is

CHAPTER 33 / 46 Discussion

Friends of Syria, Tony Blair Gas Negotiations

In 2012, the "Friends of Syria" group met in the UAE to discuss the economic reconstruction of Syria, specifically targeting its massive gas reserves. Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair previously negotiated agreements to exploit gas fields off Gaza, with royalties intended for the Palestinian Authority. The regional instability is framed as a struggle to control these Mediterranean resources and bypass Russian energy dominance.

tony blair· syria· assad· qatar· gas fields· noble energy

1:51:23 prevalent off the coast of Egypt, but also goes underneath these countries. It's not just in the water. Egypt Israel Palestine Lebanon Syria Turkey A Norwegian company called Ansys and another one called Sajex in 2003 there was an interesting year for you when we went into Iraq discovered these reserves particularly the Syrian reserves which apparently are larger than Qatar's gas reserves Ansys was then acquired by Veritas, which is a French-American company based in London. And this is when they started the group and you'll remember this Friends of Syria! Remember that? Yep. And they had the working group on economic reconstruction and development

1:52:06 And they really started getting serious around May of 2012 and they did these meetings in the United Arab Emirates. Essentially what they were doing is they were carving it all up, The only thing that had to happen was we just had to get that irritating Assad out Now you back up a little bit In 2007 in July The new special envoy of what was then known as the Quartet-the UN, EU, Russia and USA Tony Blair negotiated an agreement between the Palestinians and the Israelis to exploit the Marine 1 and Marine 2 fields off of Gaza. And the Fayyad, Salam Fayyad, the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority at that time agreed that British gas would pay royalties due to the Palestinian authority...and I guess it was going to be in bank accounts in London and DC..to guarantee that money wouldn't be used you know to kill Israelis but for economic development

1:53:01 But then Israel discovered noble energy, the Texas company Clinton helping them discover the Leviathan which is off the coast of Israel but it's also off the coasts of Lebanon and also goes further into Syrian waters. And this is a big part What is also going on, is to grab all of this. To have that entire coast of the Mediterranean and I think this is why Israel's a big swinging dick because they want to take it all and we know that Wes Clark has said Lebanon is definitely on the list of the West Clark seven to take over And essentially sell this to Europe! To become a player

1:53:50 But somehow, when the regime changed in Egypt and I guess we had nothing to do with that. Somehow someone screwed up there and probably Tony Blair... That's when everything changed and now everything is helter-skelter and all askew because no one's really living up to their agreements And this whole setup is kind of falling apart that we, the United States globalists, the Atlantis' may have a hand in doing this on purpose. That's a possibility I mean there is definitely something else going on besides these idiotic missiles going back and forth yeah and uh... i mean that's all the news about just it very super- this coverage of the situation which why we haven't discussed it yes because the coverage no matter where you go for it so superficial

1:54:50 that we can't even get, you know...we can't drill down. There's not a resource for us to drill down into unless you're gonna start hitting, starting to do some deeper online read well that that's what I started to do online research because there's nothing the media is giving us not they're giving zero foot hold at all it's horrible 0 which is what I bitched about in the last newsletter and this so this Is a deep online research as deep as I can go yeah, and he's probably still superficial Relatively speaking to some of the stuff that we've been able to uncover. But I did get one clip

CHAPTER 34 / 46 Discussion

Bill Maher, Jewish Cultural Superiority and Science

Comedian Bill Maher argued that Israel's military success is rooted in a cultural commitment to science and education. Maher pointed to the disparity in Nobel Prizes between Jewish and Muslim populations as evidence of this advantage. Critics of this view argue that science has become a "new religion" and that historical contributions from the Arab world are often overlooked in such comparisons.

bill maher· religion· science· nobel prize· atheism· islam

1:55:27 Because of course, the thing that we can never understand because just like we can't understand Russians. Russians can't understand us. We can't really understand the Brits. We certainly can't understand brown people living in the sand. This is not our culture! We'll never truly understand...We're different Chinese and we're all different And we all have, you know Japanese everything just everyone has a different culture and you can't just say oh We're all people. Yeah, it doesn't work that way and raw people man Get along dude. Can't we just get long dude?

1:56:07 And then of course there's the religion thing, which I don't buy in any case. You know but just don't buy it that this is all about religion and the Jews and the Arabs and the Muslims. Yeah sure it may be something you can control a population with. It was like his book says this and even though the Muslims are fighting because he's supposed to be Muhammad now he's gonna be Muhammad He has the Caliphate and what we're going to kill each other over? This yeah fine But I heard Bill Maher explain, I would say he's explaining the difference between Jews and Muslims. And essentially why Jews are better and Bill Maher is a Jew. And I was really blown away by this explanation. Right let's make sure to describe it right. He said he's a Jewish culturally atheist religion hating Jew? Yes

1:57:06 I mean, like hating. He doesn't... he hates. Well, yeah, you have your religion Yeah, he did a movie about it But he actually brings in a new religion which is the is the interesting part of his explanation Can we ask why Israel wins all the time because they've won every war They have to if they hadn't won every war they wouldn't exist I mean that you can't go eight and one and be Israel You kind of have to go 8-0 every year so I think it has something to do with the fact that they believe in science and education. I mean Jews...

1:57:44 I think 155 Nobel prizes and Muslims have two. Now maybe it's who you know, but that seems like kind of a big advantage for Team Hebrew and most scientists are atheists you know? I don't think you can be an atheist scientist in the Arab world! I think that has something to do with the fact they're always having this incredible advantage in war and then having to apologize...I'm sorry we're winning so bad I am flabbergasted. I am speechless by this analysis from Mr. Marr. Unbelievable! I would like to point out that many of the best doctors come from Iraq, many very highly educated researchers scientists but of course you know a Nobel Prize is...I guess that's proves everything

1:58:49 Yeah, and I would kind of say a lot of civilization was invented there. But you know if you believe in God then... but if you believe in science which is the new religion yeah, no, right? But we brought this up before that science as a religion. Yeah, but it's always good to stay on the stick even though as such real science is not because there's no faith involved It's just experimentation confirmation and more questioning than just taking everything, you know the science is in 97% agree that's when you say ninety seven percent agree that is the most unscientific thing you could say this a denial. Yeah it seems actually contrary to science yeah because its not possible I have a clip then

CHAPTER 35 / 46 Discussion

Obama Economic Patriotism, Corporate Tax Inversions

President Obama introduced the concept of "economic patriotism" to criticize American corporations that use tax inversions to move their headquarters abroad. The "Irish-Dutch sandwich" technique allows companies like Apple and Google to achieve corporate tax rates as low as 1%. Obama's rhetoric is characterized as "propaganda" for failing to name specific companies while calling their legal tax strategies unpatriotic.

barack obama· tax inversion· ireland· netherlands· corporate tax· apple

1:59:35 I thought this was kind of nutty sounding. This is a short clip, very short clip of Obama that...you know we're having this thing called this reversal of income flow to foreign... Oh, I saw this! I have this clip too yes i saw this you may have a longer version that's all right well let's the longer version is too long We're having business in the United States It's up for grabs from foreign entities because you can buy an American company and then pull the company out of the country, headquartered someplace else. And the amount of money you save on taxes damn near pays for the acquisition. Let's be very specific about it. It is the Irish-Dutch sandwich

2:00:16 and this is what the Russians are taking advantage of, but you have a... your main money flows into a company in Ireland. The profits are then shuttled to holding a Dutch BV because there's no holding tax literally on Dutch BV so you can have the money there but don't pay tax on it Then you shuttle it back to Ireland and you effectively wind up with about a tax rate of about 1%. a corporate tax rate and is, and what the president said by the way I like the entire speech but he's a pussy

2:00:55 Because he should just call the people out who are doing this. I didn't understand that well, there's a couple of things going on when i didn't like what he said because I don't like the idea...I do not like the concept that he outlines with economic patriotism. That is the part that I think is genius! He's calling people unpatriotic this is fantastic! Yeah it's very yeah it's it's I don't know what perspective its genius in? What world is genius and it seems to me to be chicken shit. In the world of propaganda but Yeah, but these companies you think that anyone's gonna pay attention to this because it's got a cool propagandistic sound what he should do if he wants To play the game solidly is go with the corporations or people if you're a person and you're doing this with your money overseas when you owe it to the federal Income Treasury Treasury the Treasury Department You have to write your checks out two people about United States Treasury. You write it right to the government And I'll send them a check Janet Yellen

2:01:50 And it's like Cohen, you pull an interview. So if you have money floating around outside, do you pull it in? Why don't they use what the corporation says are people but that's that's the way I see it. But let's go with this with what he has to say. This is a short version and I'm not interested in punishing these companies, but I am interested in economic patriotism Instead of doubling down on top-down economics, I want an economic patriotism that says we rise or fall together as one nation and as one people. Ah okay so i have a different clip this was him on the road

2:02:28 Yeah, this was him on the road and what galls me is that while he's talking a big game about economic patriotism we have a State Department that doesn't give a crap about the United States as you mentioned at the beginning of this show. Globalists because they're globalists. They're globalist and everything has got to be one world government We are going to defer to the United Nations, take away our sovereignty and all the rest of it Meanwhile these corporations who are just trying to do us a favor Because it's a scam rip off even though many get around in all kinds of different tricky ways But just at the base level, it's a scam ripoff to pay so much taxes as a corporation. All your profits go to the government! I mean 33% is high anyway... And then people in the corporation get taxed and they get taxed and then when double taxation you have to buy the goods with your tax dollars pre-it's already taxed So i make $1 to buy a product for $1 only have 70 cents left

2:03:20 And so I have to make two bucks to get by this thing and then, anyway go on with your clip. Sorry. No that's okay it's interesting we both caught this because i thought the idea of calling out companies is unpatriotic because of the way they get around the taxes and this is his podcast Which as you know, I subscribe to the podcast with the podcast app. Yeah, it's up to 300 subscribers now. No sometimes he gets 2,000 views It's poorly produced it's really shit written shittily You know Valerie Jarrett is sitting there next to the prompter and we always start off with a hefty Heil everybody! Hi everybody our businesses have now added nearly 10 million new jobs over the past 52 months

CHAPTER 36 / 46 Discussion

Obamaville Tent Cities, Berkeley and Austin Homelessness

The rise of "tent cities" under freeways in Berkeley, California, and Austin, Texas, is highlighted as a sign of economic distress. These settlements, sometimes referred to as "Obamavilles," have grown significantly over the past year. The contrast between official reports of economic recovery and the visible increase in homelessness is noted as a major societal disconnect.

homelessness· tent cities· berkeley· austin· obamaville· poverty

2:04:07 The unemployment rate is at its lowest point since September 2008. Oh! The fastest one-year drop in nearly 30 years. With a low participation, so what? Because every... Hey hey hey hey you want to rewrite the script? You wanna do what do you want him to say? Hey we're sucking over here everything blows We got people holding up signs on the highway begging for money Oh, talking about that by the way not to get off the subject but underneath our roads around here in Berkeley there are more tent cities. In Austin I've seen the difference in two and a half almost three years we've been here it's significant Yeah tent cities We have one under the freeway over here I gotta give somebody drive me by so I can take a movie of it So you can exploit them good

2:04:57 I think it should be, yeah well i think you should at least point it out to people. Then over there by the University Avenue exit on Halpha Highway 80 there's a tent city that's just cropped up How big? How many how many tents do you estimate? Well over in Berkeley is probably about nine but under the freeway over here and uh on Gilman Street It's both sides of the underpass filled probably 30 tents Yeah, so we have this at the old house which was right near I-35 in the classier neighborhood. Which don't get me wrong... We got motorcycle gangs living down the street who are nice

2:05:35 You know, it's like we got all these just 15-20 people hanging out there and they're all you have the same sign and they're walking up and down collecting money at a big trash dump. And they're living in the woods in the corner of their...and then breaking into houses and cars! Where is this? In your new neighborhood? Old neighborhood Oh yeah This neighborhood, this is very spotty So everyone here if like hey where are the neighbors Hey Manuel I take care of yous Yeah, if every neighbor knows each other and then they keep track of each other it's a bunch of buds safer even though it seems less high-end. We got Matt and Mary in the back and they gotta dog with their training so you can't come into our yard without going past their dog

2:06:22 beautiful thing. But yeah, it's a problem. 401ks are growing, your homes are underwater and for the first time in more than a decade business leaders around the world have declared that the world's number one place to invest is not China it's the United States of America! Really? Is that true? Yeah because they can buy our companies move these headquarters overseas and save a fortune! Hey now! And our lead is growing. None of this is an accident It's all my planning. Careful planning, I'm awesome! What channel is this guy watching?

2:07:04 Seriously! It's the resilience of you living in the tent. Good work! No, these tents are all...you're right I'm stunned at the number of tents that are cropping up on a day-to-day basis. It's pathetic And this was yeah, you're right A year ago there was none of these tent cities Here's what I want to do. I wanted to get some signage made, and I've got my big printer so that I can make some vinyl stuff and bring it over there and have these guys hold it up and say Obamaville! That has been done though? It has? Oh yeah many times you can Google it there are lots of Obamavilles around the country. Oh I didn't know that. Well then forget it But you could have them hold a no agenda sign This is what No Agenda go me There's another trend that threatens to undermine the progress you helped to make

CHAPTER 37 / 46 Discussion

Corporate Citizenship, Tax Reform Debate

President Obama's budget proposal includes measures to close tax loopholes that allow corporations to renounce their U.S. citizenship for financial gain. The debate centers on whether companies have a patriotic duty to pay higher taxes or a fiduciary responsibility to shareholders to minimize costs. Critics argue that if the tax code allows these maneuvers, corporations are merely following the rules of the system.

corporate tax· citizenship· tax loopholes· budget· patriotism

2:07:56 Even as corporate profits are as high as ever a small but growing group of big corporations. Now this is the chicken shit thing Why don't you just call them out Google Apple? Why'd you call them out are fleeing the country to get out of paying taxes They're keeping most of their business inside the United States But they're basically renouncing their citizenship and declaring that base someplace else just to avoid paying their fair share Yeah Love it. I want to be clear there's only a few big corporations so far yeah, Apple Google Yeah, Yahoo does that too don't they? Probably think so but why chicken smart money Does it am Amazon at the Amazon must be doing it no? I don't know if Amazon can do it all right now different structure yeah

2:08:42 But yeah, Apple and Google main thing main guy unpatriotic douchebags vast majority of American businesses pay their taxes right here in the United States I do but when some companies cherry-pick their taxes it damages the country's finances It adds to the deficit. It makes it harder To invest in the things that will keep America strong and it sticks you with the tab for what they stash offshore. The best way to level the playing field is through tax reform that lowers the corporate rate, closes wasteful loopholes and simplifies the tax code for everybody But stopping companies from renouncing their citizenship just to get out of paying their fair share of taxes is something that cannot wait. That's why in my budget earlier this year, I proposed closing this unpatriotic tax loophole for good." Unpatriotic it is! So I think we should all boycott these companies but no... It's every company

2:09:45 I think any company that can do it does do it for the shareholders benefit. I don't see that as anything you would condemn them for, but look what we can do! We have more money and if we make more money then we just have to do this way and yeah okay doesn't go here but when you get a dividend price of the value of the company goes up so we can do more things It's just a... I think it said you'd be malfeasance if you did not do it and you could. That's what is always overlooked in these big debates, that if you can do this why aren't you doing it? Right! Oh we're not doing because were patriotic well your losing money okay well we better do it then

2:10:32 Anyway, it's just this dumb. I think it's superficial crap that he even brings this up. I just thought the unpatriotic was a new way of discussing and I guess that's maybe supposed to get people all riled up but... Who is he kidding? Yeah why-I thought he was gonna call people out remember that? Remember? Yeah! That's right He used to say he wasn't going to call people out. Call them out! He's not calling out Apple No or Google So I was watching Meet The Press with Chip Yeah, Chip Grigory. He's the meat depressed guy right? Yeah that's him. You see the face of the nation I think is meat depressed. So what's her name...Chip. So she uh Goldfarb's wife whatever her name is. Goldfarb's wife. Andrea Mitchell? Yeah Andrea Mitchell. Nailed it! Goldfarbs' wife.

CHAPTER 38 / 46 Discussion

Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton 2016 Speculation

Political analysts are monitoring Elizabeth Warren as a potential alternative to Hillary Clinton for the 2016 Democratic nomination. Clinton's recent "unforced errors" regarding her personal wealth during a book tour are seen as vulnerabilities. Questions remain about the millions of dollars collected by the "Ready for Hillary" PAC and how those funds will be managed if she chooses not to run.

elizabeth warren· hillary clinton· 2016 election· ready for hillary· wealth

2:11:30 She goes on and this is her talking about Elizabeth Warren. Oh boy, okay but I do think that Elizabeth Warren is a real issue here she was greeted as such a celebrity at this conference this past week. She was all but a candidate she can say what she wants about not running but if there were a slip or if there were any reason where Hillary Clinton has to take a step back And if the foreign policy becomes an issue, which she has to own part of... I think there have been slips on the book tour talking about her personal wealth. Those are unforced errors and I think the Elizabeth Warren folks see- Who's this hysterical gay?

2:12:13 I think there have been slips. Alright, now a couple of things that keep coming up at the dinner table here. Hillary's gonna have a hard time of it anyway. What happens to all the money that Ready for Hillary, she collected millions and millions and millions of dollars through this ready for Hillary operation which I'm a subscriber too. And you get mailing every day send us five bucks send us 10 bucks. It's always three, it's always three bucks No no there is not always three anymore They do use that $3 gimmick but generally speaking its like it was 20 dollars and 11 cents recently or something down due 2011

2:13:14 and they're taking a hint from the experts. The point is that what happens to all that money? And even if Hillary runs, she gets pot loads of money she'll get a billion dollars, she'll collect a billion dollars to run and decides not to spend it all... What happens with all that money? I believe legally there are rules about it but is Ready for Hillary under those rules because Ready for Hillary's not a campaign Oh! I know what happens this easy You know, she looks at every check every donation and says okay I won't kill you. Thanks for your money! Yo you want it back? You sure yeah this is a money grab speaking of leadership in that clip there was again the Dutch about this Israel Palestine thing and looking on Facebook i'm sorry I was evaluating social media when I swear to God I see people posting the following

2:14:20 A popular... People cannot be responsible for the actions of their government. What? Yeah, yes! People say- What is the point of this meme?! It's bullcrap by the way because they are responsible Yes, of course but that is the European mentality That's the thinking Well we can't be responsible for what the stupid government does it has come to this This is where we're at now and I think its pretty close here I don't know man but im not responsible for the government And then yeah All right. Yeah, I know depressing. I know let's take a little break John 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

CHAPTER 39 / 46 Discussion

Listener Feedback, Ham Radio, Global Donations

The show concludes with a final round of donor thank-yous and listener feedback. A host shared an experience using a ham radio repeater in Napa while driving to the drag races. Producers from Belgium and Missouri sent in donations, with one listener comparing the value of "No Agenda" favorably against Leo Laporte's TWiT network.

ham radio· napa· belgium· springfield· leo laporte· donations

2:15:17 These are the donors who came in with $50 or more. Mainly people donate less than that if they want to remain anonymous, or if they're on a monthly program or some kind of subscription which we highly appreciate and do want to remind you that if you receive a note, you may wanna check And a lot of people got unsubscribed from their subscriptions when their cards were compromised at Target and Neiman Marcus, etc. And then you get note that says no agenda doesn't want your support essentially. No we don't want your money! We've unsubscribed you contact them as not true and why do you think that this... here's the thought I had about that John

2:15:53 There was a guy who programmed this long time ago, but he wrote the code. Maybe it was Pierre Drive My Car put the code in there Elon Musk for all I know and they forgot about it and its just in there no one complains. I complain all the time! I never get any note back from them It's like it's so buried in there, I believe. There is only reason that never says anything. I should write a column about it and point out even more but then looks like you know... I don't know, conflict of interest or something Whatever the case is nobody ever responds. I think its so deep and probably some sort of binary or something they can find it. They burned into EEPROM

2:16:40 Something like that. It's it's that bad. Bless you. Yeah, makes me sneeze when I think about it Let's thank some people Yes let's thank Michael Voss in Evergreen Colorado over there with having these meetings and Aspen and elsewhere under $33.33 He's also a 3333 monthly donor, but he thought that the helpings of value have been extra large lately and he wants to know if the latest jingles are posted anywhere. No I don't do that anymore because i got a little tired of hearing podcasts playing our jingles and not attributing them it just like part their show now

2:17:17 So no, I don't do that. But if you want to have one of the jingles you can A cut it out of the show B You can email me and be happy to email you whatever clip you want It just got too easy people like hey Hey, I'm gonna do a podcast they're posting on G plus podcast group where'd I get some jingles?

But yeah but then you never came back No because it disappeared. Oh good. I mean, you know, I do for every once a day at least if I give you a call out see if you're around so well, I was keying up so you should have gotten a uh...

CHAPTER 41 / 46 Discussion

Jim Willie, Germany Secretly Joining BRICS

Financial newsletter writer Jim Willie claims that Germany is secretly planning to join the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa). This move would involve participating in an alternative payment system to bypass SWIFT, which Russia has been partially excluded from. While some see this as a potential collapse of the EU, others view it as a strategic maneuver by globalist factions within Germany.

jim willie· brics· germany· russia· swift· globalism

2:27:28 I've heard of Willie. Financial newsletter writer, Jim Willie no less! No...no....I have not. So he came in this is very interesting this is one of these things that there was an interview that he did with some podcast and it was clipped and cut and translated and I've received it from all over the world oh my god this is what's happening and of course you know I'd already seen it and I'm looking at it but what Jim Willie is saying And this is the big news, Germany is secretly planning on joining the BRICS. Where does this idea come from? The BRICS wouldn't let him in for a while actually I see what the connection is between Germany and Russia

2:28:19 You know, the BRICS have this new... I guess they're setting up a form of payment system with this hundred billion dollar bank etc. And it will be like Swift which Russia has now effectively been kicked out of I don't think they can use SWIFT anymore, can they? A number of the banks can but some of the private banks in Russia can. So i do see a possibility where Germany, Deutschland might participate in that system not necessarily leaving any other system... Would be bad! Now the other thing that could happen and this kind of brings me back to Neumann

2:28:58 There is a possibility, and this is where I think we're overlooking this again. Globalists not people who represent countries... there is a possibility the EU could run into trouble like you know fall apart if England leaves. That would be our prediction. Sorry? That would be our that would be our prediction! Yeah but it absolutely can can fall apart and I will remind you, this is the current thinking from the globalists. That's Noodleman who is a globalist...I think that they mean it! You think what? I think they mean like screw the EU Oh yeah no yeah So have Germany is- I think Germany IS the EU if you really look at it

2:29:50 And the UK with their financial centre, but they're not even in the monetary unit. It's possible that they would leave and I think it would fall apart! Who knows what will happen with Scotland? That brings its own complications... the south of Europe, Spain. They might as well just join the caliphate." I can see that happening! Yeah well they might as well have done it before... I can see it happening. Yeah, isn't that something they know about? Haven't they done some of this stuff? Well most of the south of Spain is very... The Moors which were the Muslims took over the place and ran it for a while then they got rousted and that was the end of it but they left behind a lot of art you know design ideas and whatever

2:30:49 I had an article about that. Let me see... In June, Spanish monarch Juan Carlos abdicated in favor of son Felipe. Something is changing! It could actually be being set up now the caliphate. Well if any place thinks Germany's gonna do this they don't give the United States a lot of credit for being able to prevent these sorts of things You mean the BRICS, joining the BRICS? Yeah. I don't see that happening at all. That makes no sense but there is... It makes sense yeah you made it make a little sense right there but it's... Joining the system not saying we're not going to participate with any other system. I think the Germans are your fair weather friends. Not the Germans, the globalists who run German faction of the Globalist Empire probably

2:31:41 That's good that we keep an eye on this. I really liked it, i enjoyed listening to the guy he is very enthusiastic uh... but don't have enough money to subscribe to his financial newsletter um... But yeah, I thought that was interesting. Probably what is going to be all determining is the TTIP and thats kind of falling off the radar but the transatlantic Yeah, we were talking about that is a dinner incessantly no not at dinner Incessant us you and me and then we stopped talking about it well It was supposed to happen before the election And now the election has been pretty good because everyone's kind of staying in place and The radical parties couldn't really get it all together because here builders didn't want to know they didn't want to be with UKIP

CHAPTER 42 / 46 Discussion

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkish Presidential Election

Turkey faces a presidential election with Recep Tayyip Erdogan as the frontrunner, despite international criticism labeling him a "Jew-hater." Geopolitical discussions include "Greek prophecies" suggesting a future conflict where Russia attempts to take Turkey. Meanwhile, the EU and U.S. are focusing sanctions on state-owned Russian banks to pressure the economy following the MH17 downing.

erdogan· turkey· election· ottomania· greek prophecy· sanctions

2:32:29 It didn't work out, you know. So the power is kind of the same, the same douchebags are running the show but clearly there is strife amongst the different pieces and Germany... I'd say all eyes on Germany all eyes on Turkey. Turkey which I have under the heading of Ottomania we have a presidential election coming up in a couple of weeks so we can kill them before that if we want to Erdogan Or we can just make sure he loses. But there's... I don't see how he is going to lose? Well, here are some headlines He is being called a Jew-hater. That hurts him in Turkey! How?! No on the global scale it hurts. Oh yeah well on the global scale someone could be like oh you Jew-hater that would be good reason for getting assassinated by someone because of that maybe

2:33:33 Hmm, but he's got to be a goner. They can't let this guy continue doing what he's doing He's just out of control We know I have the Greek prophecies People keep sending me that like everything is going according to the Greek prophecies. I'm glad they're sending him to you I know you'd have no patience for this Zero, you would just be what get out of town and the prophecy is That there will be war between Russia, will try to take Turkey. That is essentially what the prophecy says and then it's the Greek guys right? And of course Greece never comes out good in the prophecy for some reason but it always ends bad for them so that part is working

2:34:22 But apparently Russia will break all the way through to Turkey, but then they will hold off and they will essentially give it back to the West which would be the UK and...and United States. That's in a nutshell. Yeah that makes nothing but sense! I'm just saying that's in a nutshell and then we all become friends again somehow. And that does make-I've always said that makes the most sense you know Putin isn't just Russia Putin is a globalist He doesn't hate what's going on. He just wants to, you know... he's maneuvering! Maneuvering! Everybody needs their bits of turf and that's the falsehoods. This all began when they essentially nationalized Gazprom and kicked the Russian oligarchs out of the place that were running these very profitable oil companies And Putin and his boys said this is not right

2:35:15 And they, it's just never been the same since. In fact if you look at the list and I have the list of that you can play the clip over the banks are going after their only going after Russian banks talking about the United States in the EU. They're only going after Russian banks that are state controlled There's really a strong movement internationally, and I think this has got something to do with the anti-Putin stuff to privatize larger pieces of Russia. And i don't know who's behind it maybe these rich Russian guys are they've hired the top PR people around the world but it's got something to do with it

2:35:54 play that. based on the events that have happened in Ukraine since the downing of MH17. Now, talks are still ongoing behind the scenes but more details about what's on the cards have been emerging. Officials say Russian state-owned banks could become targets and analysts warned sanctioning those banks would be a serious blow for the wider Russian economy. This would make it more difficult for lenders who provide loans to consumers and businesses as Solange Mougin now reports

2:36:37 targeting Russian banks, in particular banks owned by more than 50% by the Russian government. European diplomats said the sanctions being discussed would ban state-owned banks from issuing new bonds or purchasing new shares in the European Union In Russia state-owned banks dominate the sector which means the ban could have serious effects on the Russian economy. EU diplomats say that nearly half of the bonds issued by the Russian public financial institutions last year were issued in the EU, simply put some Russian banks could soon struggle to get loans which in turn

2:37:14 could have a negative effect on Russian businesses in need of funds. The largest banks with state ownership of over 50% are Shurbank VTB, Russian Agricultural Bank and VEB." You know really this is all just one big technology play I mean these... A bank is nothing more than an private internet work that connects with other private internet works and sends bogative numbers back-and-forth pretending to be money I mean it really is meaningless. And this has been going on so long, this propaganda... This is a clip from 1950, a little bit before my time and you were probably too young John to remember this but I've heard nothing but this bullcrap my entire life! This is a real spot on television from 1950. If words alone could stem the tide of rampaging communism It'll be fine for talk is cheap

A 1950s television spot promoting U.S. Defense Bonds is used to illustrate long-standing patterns of anti-Russian rhetoric. The discussion shifts to the "illusion" of modern digital currency, where banks move numbers across networks rather than physical species. Controlled inflation is described as a tool for governments to cheapen their debt, while true deflation is the primary fear of modern economists.

2:36:37 targeting Russian banks, in particular banks owned by more than 50% by the Russian government. European diplomats said the sanctions being discussed would ban state-owned banks from issuing new bonds or purchasing new shares in the European Union In Russia state-owned banks dominate the sector which means the ban could have serious effects on the Russian economy. EU diplomats say that nearly half of the bonds issued by the Russian public financial institutions last year were issued in the EU, simply put some Russian banks could soon struggle to get loans which in turn

2:37:14 could have a negative effect on Russian businesses in need of funds. The largest banks with state ownership of over 50% are Shurbank VTB, Russian Agricultural Bank and VEB." You know really this is all just one big technology play I mean these... A bank is nothing more than an private internet work that connects with other private internet works and sends bogative numbers back-and-forth pretending to be money I mean it really is meaningless. And this has been going on so long, this propaganda... This is a clip from 1950, a little bit before my time and you were probably too young John to remember this but I've heard nothing but this bullcrap my entire life! This is a real spot on television from 1950. If words alone could stem the tide of rampaging communism It'll be fine for talk is cheap

2:38:11 But no amount of sidewalk gossip, intellectual discussion or silver-tongued oratory has any effect on the ever surging threat of red aggression. Bu there are things a communist does respect He respects atom bombs. He respects wide winged globe circling bombers Yeah! He respects steel girded ships of the line Yeah... He respect well conditioned well equipped fighting men Yes, this makes sense to him. So let's make him respect us by providing these things in great numbers To do this takes money and we can help provide that money by buying United States defense bonds And he goes on and on and on the ruski he respects our guns Let's give them what he respects

2:38:59 And that's just moved along, we didn't have the networking capabilities and really have computers. And we had to ask you to take your paper and go exchange it for some paper or actually your coins and exchange it for some paper... ...and that's how we stole your money first now we just take it directly from you! We steal the digits, we give you the assumption in the illusion that you have money on a piece of plastic And we just take everything from you and nobody gives a crap if this supposedly illusionary money can buy me the groceries I want at the store. And it does, so what's wrong with that? Okay yeah

2:39:37 I don't really have a problem with species, which is what this is called. Species? Yeah but it's a substitute for anything real and I know what the game is and how you can make money by running inflation up an down and scoring There's ways of taking pennies out of the system and also by making the money worth less technically so you can pay off your bills with cheaper money, which is the key to getting out of debt. You're cheaping them money with high inflation rates that money is worthless but it still says that if I owe you $100

2:40:18 And I have $100, and I could pay you now or say I'll pay you later. And then money, the deflation takes place and now my hundred dollars is effectively 75. It's more of 10 cents! That's a real deflation yeah? So the 100 bucks is ten cents...I still owe you $100 and I give you $100 which is now the equivalent of ten cents and my debt's over. I've got it made! We haven't seen that because we're in a depression and then during the depression you actually have deflationary issues that push it the other way, where the money actually becomes worth more. That's what they were always fearful of because the worst case scenario is true deflation and economists worry sick about this during depression there's always opportunity for things for products to sell cheaper

Motorola Digital Tattoo, Mark of the Beast

Motorola has introduced a "digital tattoo" sticker that lasts five days and allows users to unlock their Moto X phones with a tap. The technology is marketed as a way to save time compared to traditional passwords. Critics link this development to "Mark of the Beast" theories, especially when combined with Google Voice's 666 message limit and the potential for permanent biometric tracking.

2:41:12 and your money's worth more. In other words, my $100 is not worth 110 bucks and if I still owe you with 100 bucks and now my hundred dollars is worth 200 in real money, I'm giving you $200 to pay... That's no good! You can't do that so that's why you always want controlled inflation. And then if you really wanna let it go out of control then you can take care of a lot of problems real fast. Not so much for the public suffers but they can deal with it. Of course do I play the clip yes? Looks like Motorola has invented a new way for us to unlock our phone. This is something you may like Well yes, Motorola has come out and said no more tricky passwords or scanning your fingertips The moto X will now unlock with a tattoo sticker made from plastic that's around

2:42:25 the size of a nickel. The material lasts on human skin for five days and is meant to withstand sweat and even shower users will simply need to tap the back of the phone with the digital tattoo to unlock the device, the company says it wanted to reduce the amount of time users take to unlock their phones which is currently at around 2.3 seconds so they're they want to cut that in Well, I don't know how much time you take to unlock your phone but i don't know if i'm good. I needed it to go that fast all right thank you so much Delano D'Souza reporting the day's business news there is that is that the guy from The New York Times? No no this some guy never seen before just happens to have the name D'Souza well he got a big scoop on the on the on the phone tattoo

2:43:11 I had never heard this before. And I only picked it up because I thought they were talking about unlocking the phone! Yeah, like to be able to use any SIM card But no it meant people put passwords in front of their... you know, I don't even bother Well this is great Oh, somebody's gonna steal your phone and they're gonna have what? My point where I stopped Angry Birds You know they can pick up the game from there I mean who cares No they're gonna have your address Hold on hold on hold on In your address book some time You play Angry Birds? Yeah. Really? Angry Birds in Space 2! I think if you have this tattoo...

2:43:54 It would be worth chopping your hand off for your address book. Mark of the beast! Of course it's the mark of the beast, hello Google voice 666? It's all coming true we knew what was happening no one would believe us yes and of course you'd... The next step is actually have a real tattoo which is going to be barcode I mean so simple to see Mark of the Beast Some actual tech news. Tech! Tech news... But I have to be a woman, you can't do tech news unless you're a girl. That's true. And preferably- You could talk about this maybe get away with it Preferably have some Asian blood in ya

Net Neutrality, Mayors' Letter to FCC

The mayors of New York, San Francisco, and Portland sent a letter to FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler urging the reclassification of broadband as a common carrier. The letter emphasizes the need for "lawful content" to be accessible without delays. Analysts point out that the focus on "lawful content" implies a level of government censorship and control over the internet that is often ignored in the net neutrality debate.

2:44:36 I don't know. I'm just saying what I see. That comes another note from that guy, Just saying what I see we read the mayor's agreement from the was it? The congregation of mayors or that big document about all the crap they were going to do and one of them was net neutrality right? I mean packet equality here it is and the first ones are out of the gate a letter from the mayors of Portland New York and San Francisco. And I have this letter for you in PDF format which you can find in the show notes, sent to the Honorable Tom Wheeler Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission Dear Chairman Wheeler we the undersigned mayors of New York City, San Francisco, Portland Oregon blah blah submit this letter ensuring that the internet remains free an open

2:45:35 We, as the elected representatives of some 9.8 million citizens... we urge the FCC to issue the strongest possible rules to guarantee net neutrality! Ah! He made another rhyme and here we go. This is just stuff I've highlighted. We believe that the most effective way to truly protect the open internet is for the FCC to break with its previous approach and reclassify broadband internet as a telecommunications service subject to regulation as a common carrier. And here's my favorite, it is critically important that our residents among them many students parents educators and prostitutes Does anybody note that this is just...this is not good

2:46:31 That's why you're no agenda shift. A very censored internet with the government in charge I'll read this paragraph again, and we'll finish it and you will throw up in your mouth It is critically important that our residents among them many students parents educators and prostitutes who are only able to connect to broadband at schools or libraries are able to freely access Lawful content. Oh, there we go without being confronted with delays that threaten adoption Sincerely bill de Blasio Charlie Haley notice why are we the only? Why does this show that you know agenda show that people help keep on the air by? Contributing to Devorah org slash na why are we the only ones that keep bringing up this lawful content issue because We only

2:47:23 When we talk about tech news, we spend very little time on the phones. If there's an important release... I mean obviously it is our headline. When has that ever been? We just did it! It was our headline news! The Motorola phone... You did with the tattoo thing? Yes, that was the headlines and if we had a panel we could talk about it for a bit I'll get talk and talk and talk about it. So, oh! And then we have the tattoo what would you wear one billy? Yeah yeah be kind of cool but i don't like the looks of this tattoo is not pretty enough i think it was a prettier tattoo maybe a square or barcode something as he can

2:48:02 It might look a little better. I don't like it because it doesn't only last five days, and I think it should be on there for a month or maybe you should even have permanently attached to me that five days is not long enough yet to keep where do you get the next tattoo? You have to buy from them. Do you have to pay five bucks? How do you get it and what if the phone does this all of us and doesn't recognize attached to just scratch yourself or maybe they're bug bite again maybe a flea biter something in now other thing doesn't work anymore how did he got on your phone you can be locked out completely you have to go to the factory I don't know Bill what do you think Well, I could go on like this. I like that. That's kind of turning me on. I think...I would like my tattoo to interact with the Internet of Things. Oh God! There is another topic. So my nest will recognize my tattoo. Your nest? Yes and I want to- Hello slave welcome back to your home And i want to start my Tesla with my tattoo it'll in fact we can call it a TT

I've been sitting on this clip This is the-I just think it's a disgusting story This is The Problem With China And this is a report about... Only one problem? Well, this is a major problem with China which is the food supply. Although I can't believe that we're much better than this. Listen to this! Some of the biggest restaurant chains in the world are caught up in a food safety scare in China Yeah, this is big story you'll want to be aware of They say they've removed products that came from a factory accused of mishandling and selling expired meat. But Lisa Vasilova has more

2:49:58 This is Shanghai Husi Food Company, an American-owned meat factory operating in China. Among its clients are fast food chains in China including McDonald's, Starbucks, KFC and Pizza Hut. And behind this door is something Shanghai Husi never wanted you to see CNN cannot independently verify the authenticity of these disturbing images filmed and broadcast on Shanghai-based Dragon TV. Raw meat being scooped from the floor in heaps, and thrown into a metal tub on the production line. This sign says substandard. The bin of substandard chicken nuggets is dumped into another bin mixed with raw chicken for reprocessing

2:50:42 These beef patties used in Big Macs and other products, old patties tossed back in with raw beef. Also in the mix expired meat. The parent company of Shanghai Hussie Illinois based OSI group says it is appalled by the media report and is investigating McDonald's and Yum! Brands have apologized to customers and halted orders from the company And other restaurants have pulled all products that came from Shanghai Hussie The factory's operations have been suspended, but China's struggle against food quality scandals continues. Relitsa Vassilova CNN I think our plan was working perfectly to kill all the Chinese until they found us out

2:51:26 Well, it didn't get very far. And if anybody doesn't think the company in the United States is doing exactly the same thing does and the way you stop this is with inspectors they would have an inspector American inspector at the Chinese plant You can hire one doesn't have to be a you know Chinese a Chinese guy speaks Chinese and he's over there right I mean There's no if there's no inspection at this level that gets up take a movie of the thing I mean This is just this is just this beyond carelessness They don't care And they're doing this on purpose. They're doing it on purpose, whatever we would look at all this used patties apparently there are hamburgers that never you know Nobody picked them up or whatever cooked and they mix them in with the old with the new meat and then these grind everything together They don't care because it saves money It's everythings got to be cheap and now this is not this is uh This is all meant to be I'm happy though.
