About this episode

Senator Dianne Feinstein and Secretary of State John Kerry are signaling a permanent shift in American foreign policy, advocating for an open-ended Authorization for Use of Military Force against ISIS. While Feinstein criticizes Benjamin Netanyahu’s congressional address as arrogant, the Obama administration is quietly positioning Iran as a necessary regional stabilizer to facilitate the removal of Bashar al-Assad in Syria. This geopolitical pivot suggests the nuclear deal’s centrifuge limits are intentionally calibrated to allow for a breakout capacity that serves broader Western interests.

Domestic narratives are increasingly dominated by FBI sting operations, such as the arrest of Christopher Cornell, which critics argue are manufactured cycles designed to justify surveillance spending. In the education sector, student walkouts in New Jersey are challenging the Common Core and PARCC testing infrastructure funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Meanwhile, the Lumina Foundation is operating as a billion-dollar investment vehicle for elites under the guise of increasing college graduation rates. Financial data reveals executive compensation at these non-profits reaching $700,000 annually while students are funneled into a lifelong debt cycle through the new Student Aid Bill of Rights.

Technical discrepancies in ISIS execution videos suggest professional studio production rather than organic battlefield footage, with ballistics experts noting a lack of recoil in Glock 21 demonstrations. Adam Curry reports from Rotterdam on the breakdown of social order in the Netherlands as train conductors face increasing assaults. The show also explores the health risks of the Apple Watch launch and the bizarre trend of McDonald’s adding kale to its menu to capture the superfood market.

Adam Curry Rotterdam Report, Lex and Iranian Marriage Anecdote

Adam Curry reports from Rotterdam, Netherlands, discussing his transition back to the region and his stay at the country house of his friend Lex. He mentions a report in The Telegraph regarding his personal life before detailing an anecdote about Lex's marriage to an Iranian woman. The couple reportedly underwent an Islamic marriage ceremony in the Netherlands to facilitate travel to Iran, where they would otherwise be prohibited from sharing a hotel room.

00:00 They don't know anything. They're idiots! From Rotterdam, the Netherlands in the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry and from old northern Silicon Valley here. Here I stand I am John C. Dvorak You stand there my friend you stand it here you stand there John I hate to say it well I don't hate to say but I have been here for a few days now

00:43 I'm still not over the jet lag entirely, but I have reports and I have feedback and information from the lowlands here in the trenches. The trenches of the Cold War... So you're enjoying it now? You finally beginning to groove, get your Dutch back to full tilt and all they're yacking away with locals? Yeah! It's been okay.

Yeah but i visited his land house. Used to stay at his place. Yeah right yeah but now I stayed overnight in his place in the country Oh he has a place in the country?! I had never seen the Liechtenstein collection Is that a walking distance place in the country? No no no Joke about size of the country never mind Hey yo hey yo I hear ya

01:37 But I also spent a nice evening, didn't sleep overnight but I spent the nice evening at dinner with my first wife. Oh, you did now? Yeah. Of course I did! Well the word is you're getting back together Not just that...I've already sent my stuff it's on our way and said you better make room And the woodpaper had that report It was uh...the weekend The telegraph They were the only ones to get this stuff right Yay Telegraph Hey did you tweet man? Did you tweet? Did you retweet? No I didn't You should do that Void Zero is like hey man we got a turn out not high enough on the live stream John didn't tweet

02:13 Anyway, that was actually nice. I said hey you know what? I've got an idea how about you... That would definitely get the tongues wagging! I said how about you don't talk to the press about us anymore What do you think? She must have looked quizzical when you said that. Really? What, her head went back and forth? No, her head cocked to the left like really what? But she's alright but that was actually good yeah it was good Yeah okay well great I'm glad you guys are getting back together And apparently i'm moving here because I don't know how to make any money yet which is true of course You're like oh poor guy podcasting in a damn shack

02:56 he has to come back and you know be a DJ on the radio again. Yeah that makes sense. What would you do there? That's a big question. Kill myself, yeah I got another week to go but it's nice because i'm seeing all kinds of people haven't seen in a long while so it's kind of and i'm getting lots of information so you remember Lex is well...I think actually they are married because they got married an Islam marriage because... Your wife and Lex? No, not my wife. His girlfriend they went to Iran but they couldn't stay in the same hotel room or even be anywhere near each other if they weren't married so he went to one of the mullahs in The Netherlands got married so that could do that So his wife I'll say But she's Iranian And you know We've talked about her before when I was in Bonaire She's got all the inside dirt

US-Iran Nuclear Negotiations, Mike Morrell Centrifuge Analysis

A source from Iran suggests that the United States may actually want Iran to possess a nuclear weapon to assist with regional stability in Syria. Former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morrell is cited regarding the irony of limiting Iran to 5,000 centrifuges, a number sufficient for a weapons program but insufficient for a power program. This analysis suggests the nuclear deal's parameters may be intentionally designed to allow for a breakout capacity.

iran· nuclear deal· mike morrell· centrifuges· syria· nuke· geopolitics

03:51 Because she goes there four times a year, visits her mom. Oh so she's keeping up with the gossip? Hell yeah! First of all, the Iranian people actually no longer know what the hell is going on. She says it's weird They, you know...they always knew that the US and Iran were playing a game and playing together to do stuff. And now the word is from Iran is- The word on the street? The word on the street is that- Which you'll never get in any other show I want to remind everyone listening. Correct. This comes mainly from a source Al Hassan, and I'm not quite sure of his...you know, I'm just saying it's kind anyone could help me out at finding out if this is reliable or not

04:33 is that the US actually wants Iran to build a nuke. to help them with the Syrian problem. Yeah, yeah this is good well it fits in with what Mike Morrell said that this 5 000 centrifuges or whatever the measure was actually more than enough to make a bomb not do much good right we had that clip and that clip was something of an anomaly if you think about it he was baffled by it so why are you going to do this leaving him enough centrifuges just to build a bomb and not doing much else Well that's an interesting twist. I could probably find that clip if you wanted to play it

05:12 That's maybe not a big deal. Yeah, if you could fight it. Let's come back to the deal right? So I don't think the focus should be on the number of centrifuges in fact there is great irony here 5 thousand centrifuges is... If your just going to have nuclear weapons program five thousand centrifuges pretty much the number you need. If your gonna have power program you'll need alot more centrifuge so by limiting them to a small number of centrifuges, we're kind of limiting them to the number you need for a weapon. Great irony here right? Why don't we recognize that? I dunno... He's like why don't we recognize it? Because apparently is the whole point! And that clip now makes sense. Huh okay

CHAPTER 03 / 50 Discussion

Iranian New Year, Ta'idik Rice Cooking Technique

The discussion shifts to the Iranian New Year, Noorooz, occurring on March 31, 1393, in the Persian calendar. A detailed description of Ta'idik is provided, which is a traditional Iranian cooking method where basmati rice and saffron are prepared so the bottom layer becomes crispy and slightly burnt. The hosts compare this to their own methods of preparing rice.

iran· noorooz· ta'idik· basmati rice· saffron· cooking· new year

05:59 So one other just sideline 31st of March is the Iranian New Year, which will be 1393 Just thought I'd throw that out there. Yeah, I can hear that 1393 yep 1393 let's see wait hold on a second it is the then they call Noorooz this the new year noodles noodles? I've been practicing me She's fantastic for rebates she's she's so much fun Jean 93 and when was it the 31st of March yeah Okay This isn't a little aside And, and of course the most important thing she cooked for me. Holy crap! There's this... Crap? She cooked crap? No she did not cook crap I say holy crap she cooked chicken and rice in yeah and there's this she made Tideak

06:46 And ta'idik is a process where they have the rice with saffron and everything, you know just all those nice spices. And they let it...the bottom burn. It's not really burnt. Yeah this is classic Iranian rice Yes and its ta'idik. They sell that separately apparently in Iran. Just the burned part yeah. The cracked bottom. Oh man! That was nice That was way... Yeah, actually that's the way I cook my rice. This is the basmati rice recipe i was talking to you about. Well we need... It's how you cook it. You should have had her show you the entire process! Unfortunately uh..I was in of course in traffic getting there and it was all fucked up and so by time I got there it was almost ready but she showed me had been on the stove for an extra 20 minutes or something and was sticking up almost like um like a science project you know? The rice was really just... I have no idea how she did it

CHAPTER 04 / 50 Discussion

Dianne Feinstein, Perpetual War and Military Authorization

Senator Dianne Feinstein appeared on Meet the Press, expressing a pessimistic view that the fight against ISIS and Al-Qaeda will continue for generations. She advocated for a new resolution to authorize the use of military force without a time limit, removing "weasel words" that constrain the executive branch. This stance is characterized as a green light for the military-industrial complex.

dianne feinstein· meet the press· isis· al-qaeda· military industrial complex· aumf

07:38 I can ask her. I can ask her, I can ask her." No you have to have her show you. Yeah right okay so i wasn't going to go in this direction but since we had Mike Morell might as well speaking of Iran listen to Dianne Feinstein on Meet the Press. I was blown away by she actually...I kind of got a little respect for her for just saying it uh just coming out and saying it very clearly and like wow and she actually kind of looked good I think I'm turned on about Dianne Feinstein now this is sick This is sick. Mike Morrell was at a New York police terrorism conference and here's what he said about this current situation of sort of terrorism going forward, He said this, this is long term my children's generation and my grandchildren's generation will still be fighting this fight referring to ISIS and Al Qaeda And perhaps it's gonna have another name in 10 years Are you as pessimistic as he is?

08:28 I am. I think this is going to go on and on and on." I love that! Thank you, hello military industrial complex good to go all systems go lights are green we're go we're go we're go so she's the head of the intelligence committee i believe? No longer But that's just saying, oh it's going to go on and on forever and ever. Until the new generations who are the would-be fighters come to the conclusion that the cruelty, brutality and savagery of this group does not befit their participation then I think the situation begins to change

09:10 I think the United States should pass a resolution to authorize the use of force without a time limit, clear up the enduring operation — no enduring operation language that's in the present meaning. Remember that was our favorite? Of No Great Duration. What was the word they had in there? Yeah, some term weasel words. They said yeah, we didn't mean easel words. Weasel don't constrain the executive branch on the number of troops you might use? Well on special operations counterintelligence on

09:46 Logistics on a number of different things where the United States... You don't worry that becomes a blank check? Well, not necessarily. No no don't go spending our money just yet! What we see is of course the Iranian military taking a major role now. Ah right okay

CHAPTER 05 / 50 Discussion

Iranian Military Role in Syria, Assad Regime Removal

The Iranian military is taking a major leadership role in regional conflicts, led by a high-profile general. Secretary of State John Kerry and Senator Dianne Feinstein suggest that cooperation from Russia and Iran is essential to removing Bashar al-Assad from power in Syria. The nuclear agreement is framed as a diplomatic tool to facilitate this broader geopolitical shift and protect against a nuclear breakout.

iran· syria· bashar al-assad· russia· nuclear agreement· diplomacy· middle east

10:35 Taking a major role now. I'm surprised we don't make more of a fuss about this There's been report after report the Iranians especially with this one superstar general, I can't remember his name Yeah, but there's one superstar generals over there Direct killing people yeah, he's directing the movie And and they're just they've taken over the place and I think I was thinking about this because no would nobody think McCain But one of these blowhards would be up there shaking their fist about this happening because they do bring up the fear that the Shiites from Iran will kick a few heads in, of the Sunnis after this is over.

11:19 There's generally speaking not a lot of complaining, which would be logical to me that they'd be complaining. They just complain all the time I think it's just to sell more crap to them Well listen to the second Feinstein clip That we need Russia and Iran's help in moving Assad out Ah, there it is. So we're negotiating with Iran for them to help us move Assad out of course because that is partially Iranian territory but it's also the territory of the Russians they own the port so... That has to come you cannot settle Syria and leave Assad in power

11:59 I love how you cannot settle Syria. Apparently overthrowing an entire country and regime is called settling now. That has to come, you cannot settle Syria and leave Assad in power The degree to which we can work this out diplomatically is important. And of course that's where the nuclear agreement comes in. Oh, I thought it was just about nuclear! Nooo... It's about nuclear and nuking Assad? Because as i look at it the nuclear agreement could be a real sea change for Iran Do you think we have to do a nuclear agreement in order to get their cooperation in Syria? I think we have to do a nuclear agreement to protect from a breakout

CHAPTER 06 / 50 Discussion

Benjamin Netanyahu Congress Speech, Logan Act Controversy

Senator Dianne Feinstein criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress, calling his attempt to trash the nuclear agreement before its completion "humiliating" and "arrogant." The discussion touches on whether Republican senators violated the Logan Act by sending a letter to Iranian leadership. It is noted that the Logan Act is rarely applied and its relevance to this diplomatic friction is debated.

benjamin netanyahu· dianne feinstein· israel· logan act· republicans· congress

12:42 And I think that, you know what Prime Minister Netanyahu did here was something that no ally of the United States would have done. Now this is a big one here's Dianne Feinstein Born Goldman, who is now going to speak on behalf I believe of a large faction of Jews in Congress and the Senate saying hey we represent people and screw you BB net and Yahoo douche. I find it humiliating embarrassing and very arrogant because this agreement is not yet finished right to trash it

13:19 before you have the final period on it, before you know what it is I think is a huge error in judgment for our number one ally in that area. Yeah! You know I've noticed this too...I think that she's making a good point and they're uh... And I think they're making a statement about this guy's future in Israel to but there is some of these things have been trapped for Netanyahu. Well, Netanyahu less so than the renegade Republicans in Congress to make them all look like morons and they all have their signature

14:03 There's a you know who that you know exactly who they are and I think it's for and as I understand Somehow they violated the Logan Act by sending this. Yeah, the Logan Act doesn't apply to Israel is very clear Okay But it does to Iran really sure that they did have violate the Logan Act up. I'm just telling you what? I'm reading yeah No, I heard this too already Amen And it does Thank you, and then it doesn't apply to Israel for slide which is baffling to me now check this out He then and then I have a couple other things but this is really this is unbelievable This is Kerry But he's still trying to get this authorized use of military force everyone's trying to get that and he's uh. He is up on the hill He's answering questions And what he says right here

CHAPTER 07 / 50 Discussion

John Kerry, ISIS Recruitment and Kinetic Activities

Secretary of State John Kerry claims the U.S. could "knock out" ISIS quickly but argues that aggressive military action serves as a recruitment tool for the group. He emphasizes the importance of a 62-nation coalition, including five Arab countries, engaged in "kinetic activities." The narrative suggests that ISIS desires a direct confrontation with the U.S. to bolster its growth.

john kerry· isis· recruitment· kinetic activity· coalition· social media

14:51 I don't know why this isn't like the headline news continuous soundbite. For Kerry, it's even short. Hold on... Did you hear what he just said? Yeah, this is a good clip by the way. A good series of clips too This clip what he says is we could knock them out at any minute We could do that which is bullcrap of course but the way he presents it Is for some purpose yes well here I'm not sure what it is yeah? I have the purpose I had this coming right up okay so tell me what it first of all just for him to say that I think is That's news and we can go and kick their ass

15:47 Well, he's done a couple of things recently. One was that we're not under threat remember that which got everybody all upset mostly the talk show hosts on the right side of the spectrum. We're all gonna die these guys are gonna come over here and they're gonna kill us! And Kerry says we've got nothing going on here were fine what are you kidding? So he does that and now he says this which is probably true I'm thinking because these guys were just a bunch of jokers in Toyotas. Probably true there isn't need for rescue mission When the world is threatened, when the world needs help it calls on America. And that's the story. Alright let's listen to his reasoning behind this Because I think they understand that the implications of that would be actually to aid in recruitment So his rationale if you go and kill those guys then their recruiting will be better than ever

16:44 Which fits in with their stupid-ass story that we're all being recruited by social media. It's in with the doping narrative, you're right Oh my goodness to create a bigger problem today and an answer the question was asked earlier Why does why do these guys like taking us on to some degree because if it's just us? That's how they grow. Oh, and that's what they want and we're not getting suckered into that That's why we built the 62 coalition. That's why we worked so hard to get these five Arab countries engaged in the kinetic activities with us. Yeah kinetic activities Kinetic activity. Oh yeah kinetic baby. Well kinetic kinetic Did you see the most recent video

CHAPTER 08 / 50 Discussion

ISIS Execution Videos, Glock 21 Technical Discrepancies

An analysis of recent ISIS execution videos, including one featuring a young boy, suggests high production values and potential staging. A technical review by a producer identifies the weapon used as a Glock 21 chambered in .45 ACP, noting that the lack of exit debris and the child's lack of recoil response are inconsistent with actual ballistics. The videos are compared to professional studio productions rather than organic battlefield footage.

isis· glock 21· video production· ballistics· propaganda· search.nashownotes.com

17:35 No, I stopped watching these videos. From team... By the way it was funny yesterday said to Lex who's turning 70 this year not that that means that much but i said yeah I was just talking about stuff he loves hearing my stories he doesn't give a shit and he doesn't read any more but wants to know what's happening. And all those videos are fake really? So I'm sure you're a proper guy you know my typical spiel you don't want to watch me says yeah do I try to find them can't find damn videos So I whip up search.nashownotes.com and show him the Burning Man video. Now Lex has been in television all his life, and radio but TV for sure. He's like wow this is great! This is totally fun what a great production he saw everything right off the bat completely clean well this is bullshit I say uh-huh so then we look at the new one which

18:27 So we have, it's similar not like the Burning Man but like the Beheading videos. That that's the team to put this one together and they have again guy in a pristine brand new uniform and a kid who is probably you know 13 14 15 And they have this supposed Israeli spy and The whole bunch of Alawak bar and all this stuff and then the kid The guys kneeling with his face toward the kid He points the gun which I want to talk about in a minute, and then it's all slow-mo etc. And you see a blast of air blowing the guys face Then you see all of us and you see little bullet hole and then he falls forward He's dead that's repeated several times with all this You know crazy effects that they put in there A couple things if you really look at this video...and this happens to be a Glock 21

19:20 Which, that's not that I would recognize that but this comes from one of our producers. Actually I think... Hold on a second, let me bring this up This is from Sir DH Slammer And he says I ran the money shot frame by frame found many problems with the video which you're probably already aware of yes for instance this being a 45 caliber there was no The back of his head was not blowing off also. Yeah, the whole looks a little small yeah The hole looked a little small I mean when you shoot someone point-blank in the forehead with a 45 the back your head is coming off and

19:56 And so you don't see that and they show it twice. But here's what he says, it's a Glock 21 as far as he can say, says that chamber is 45 ACP which would be pretty difficult to obtain certainly to get ammo for brown person in the middle of the sand this is not a traditional weapon And I implore all of our experts who know about this stuff to see if they can figure out why this particular weapon was used. When they had there at the studio, that's right! Hey what do we got left over there? Probably but the lack of exit debris... That gun would have a nice kick too how'd the kid handle it no problem

CHAPTER 09 / 50 Discussion

ISIS Anthem Music, All Quiet on the Western Front

The ISIS anthem, "Dawlat al-Islam Qamat," is described as having a catchy, "Lion King" vibe that appeals to impressionable youth. This leads to a discussion of the film "All Quiet on the Western Front," which depicts the disillusionment of a German student recruited for World War I. The comparison highlights how music and propaganda are used to radicalize and recruit young people into military conflicts.

isis· anthem· lion king· recruitment· all quiet on the western front· propaganda

20:39 Yeah, and there you know was really interesting and the hit me for the first time really the song they have The they have a little song that they play hold on a second This one yeah this is this is all this could have been in The Lion King it's it's a good song. It is catchy I And I have to say, I'm starting to get into it. Do we have anybody that can identify this song? Yeah, I'll tell you exactly what it is... This is Daulat Al-Islam Qamat and if you try to find on YouTube its been removed everywhere

21:21 But I have the, uh... And why? Yeah. Because-I don't know because you know it's a good song! That is why. Hold on. I want you to hear-get into the hook a little bit It's kind of good man. And they have a little marching in it hold on Backing up a bit around here where it starts to get kinda cool I'm telling ya this thing is a hit we should do a remix or something Maybe I'm being recruited. He made himself radicalizing, alright? You're self-radicalizing yourself. Put your pants back on!

22:03 Someone needs a remix that thing and put it in the show notes so you can check it out. It's a good song I recognize anywhere. Yes, you're right. It is catchy. Got a good hook. What's the lyrics? Do you have anything of any further information but you know what they pulled off Spotify because ISIS felt that they weren't getting enough royalties who sings this song Is there an artist yeah There is an artist hold on That's also all on the show notes. Sure. There's a guy let me see here we go It's the ISIS anthem. Is that what they're calling it? That is, well it's called Dawlat al-Islam Karmat and it is done by... Who sang this thing now listen I don't know who was saying it but funny I tried to do Shazam it no luck. No thats funny So that thing doesn't work

23:12 Okay, so the translation of the song is my Uma Dawn. And I think it has... oh there's some lyrics. Are there some lyrics maybe here? No. We'll work on it! I just wanted to identify that I thought it was a damn catchy tune. Well there you have it It has-it has a real Lion King vibe too The kids love that stuff So y'know maybe uh Yeah they're dumb kids Maybe well that's for sure Now, yeah. Well anybody who joined that operation considering nuts now when you're talking about we're going to have this at home and but you know people should go if you ever get a chance he happens watch the movie all is quiet on the Western front in old black and white film I would recommend it one I think a bunch of awards and it synopsis of the movie

23:59 It's about a kid being recruited with the same sort of gung-ho bullcrap. This is German, it's about Germany. A kid being recruited out of high school for all practical purposes or whatever that level schools called in Germany and going to World War I to the Western Front where he has just witness all this mess and comes back ruined And then he tries to tell the kids, because he runs into a bunch of kids that are being recruited to go die for their country. And he starts to lecture them and then they turn on him and damn near kill him more or less at the end for being a crumb bomb, not being all gung ho. It's a very good movie in you can sense that these kids are impressionable

CHAPTER 10 / 50 Discussion

Christopher Cornell FBI Sting, Local News Interview

Christopher Cornell, an Ohio man arrested for a plot to attack the U.S. Capitol, gave an exclusive phone interview to a local TV station from jail. The interview is criticized as a poorly scripted "package" where Cornell appears to read lines provided by the FBI. Cornell admits the plot was a "mix" of his ideas and those of the FBI, fueling theories that the case was a manufactured sting operation.

christopher cornell· fbi· ohio· terrorism· entrapment· pipe bombs

24:52 at certain ages and if you really turn on the pressure, you can get them to pretty much do what you want. Indeed! And you can do it from a distance I guess... Well you could do it with catchy tunes Well, this catchy tune doesn't hurt. Well... So let's take an example. This is the guy from in Ohio or this was the last what we thought it was probably a six-week cycle for the FBI they got... You are very weak when you're new FBI guy who doesn't have a sense of drama? Right so completely messed it up no one really cares they caught some kid and he was gonna pipe bomb the Capitol or something like that. And then shoot all the FBI guys as they came running out waving their arms in the air

25:33 I have a feeling maybe this was a package because it was sent to me from an Ohio local station. But, I don't know if it has legs or not but apparently the guy who is now in jail pending his trial etc., called the local TV station from the phone in his room in his cell Are you with me? I mean, are you on the floor yet? They have a telecommunications system in the prison now. Apparently this guy... Well of course we know what's going on! The FBI is making him call the station that's what's going on And the station is like they're freaking out so this woman there you they're going if I'm in the station and I get this call. I'm in a newsroom You know my other people that have been articles from The New York Times, yeah making them our own Yeah, go crazy. Yeah well, but I'll start to clip it then I'll interrupt him We'll talk a bit more about it because it's it's really fascinating

26:28 that this happened. Good evening, tonight we bring you that exclusive interview that Trisha did yesterday with a suspected terror suspect Chris Cornell You know this is really odd We found it very odd Yeah But he called us three times on Wednesday evening the third time of which if you're watching the 10 o'clock news This is typical right when you are accused or trying to blow up The Capitol Hey have a phone Right? Makes total sense to me. Call him as you'd like! You don't have one phone call, you get three! And we suggest this number. I kind of disappeared in the middle of the show because he has a phone in his room See, so she's saying she disappeared in the middle of the newscast because this guy was calling So you just like you said they were freaking out and he wanted to get his story out Yeah His words are chilling In fact their words no one wants to hear but the truth is We all need too and that's why we fought a court battle to bring it to you

27:24 They even give them the script, I believe to read as the intro. Now when you hear this thing... This is edited so you see the newswoman she's sitting in a sound booth like an editing booth where little corners they can do voiceover shit for-I'm sorry stuff for their packages and she has a phone and there's a microphone clearly recording her voice but they cut back and forth between his voice on the phone and then her in the studio There's one point where it overlaps But even that I'm not so sure is to me it sounds like one we talked about this before you got the big vinyl. Here's the answers, you insert your own questions right? It feels like a damn package job. Tri-state terror suspect Chris Cornell who goes by his Muslim name Raheel Maroos Ubaidah talked exclusively to me revealing his plan to attack our president our capital and our embassy and refer to you and me as potential collateral damage but that's not all in

28:21 an hour long conversation. He talked about other possible terror cells in the U.S and here in Ohio, and what motivates him? Now we want to show you with the feds. You don't want to hear it? No no I do want to hear but I just wanted to throw an interjection here. Please please be my guest This guy is going to tell us as if he knows anything thing about other terror cells. Oh yeah, oh and the fact that he used the words collateral damage... Wait until you hear him reading his side of the script! He's reading a script too! You're getting me irked here, you better get to it. Get to what? The whole thing is just beautiful. This guy... this is beauteous man, this is- the whole thing is beautiful. What happened where are you huh

29:05 and our capital and our embassy, and referred to you and me as potential collateral damage. But that's not all in an hour-long conversation he talked about other possible terror cells in the US and here in Ohio and what motivates him? Now be quiet! This is so bad! You're gonna talk over it listen. Sorry sorry Jesus you almost talked at the same point

29:46 Now we want to show you what the feds want to see and what his attorneys don't want you to see. I'm sorry, did she not just literally say that you're about to hear what the feds want you to know? Play that again! That's exactly what she said. Plan to attack our president... Huh?! I'm thinking before you play it again, that can't be right What do you mean? It can't be right. She couldn't have possibly said this the way she's... Yeah, I've played it three times and we'll do it again. President our capital and our embassy and referred to you and me as potential collateral damage but that's not all in an hour-long conversation he talked about other possible terror cells in the US and here in Ohio and what motivates him

30:35 Now we want to show you what the feds want to see and what his attorneys don't want you to see. What did you hear? What the feds want to see but she didn't say what the feds want us to see which is okay sounds more. Okay, but then he's right and still bad yeah we also wanna warn you some of this is disturbing no what you just did was disturbing lady should have warned me earlier in which I planned on Tuesday September 20th in Washington DC would have been a great attack against America Even with my capture do you hear the description is reading this of course he's reading it. This is great percussions will not stop

31:20 Although it would have been a major attack against America, events that will follow are dangerous and more enormous. And with the Islamic State I have connections with many brothers over there even corresponding for quite some time now actually. The FBI finally caught on these past years... Was it their? Did you hear what he said? The FBI finally caught on FBI finally caught on this past year. Was it their idea for you to plant pipe bombs at the Capitol and have people running outside to shoot them? It was a mix of both of our ideas. What?!

32:01 As a mix you know we're hanging out drinking and we've been yeah wait a minute this part of the narrative was never Revealed that they were actually involved with this guy. Yeah, it was part another one of these cons Yeah the six-week cycle oh my god There's a lot more I mean don't play when did you first come in contact with him? Oh I won't say that in specific either. Oh, he's not gonna tell us. He missed it- I'm gonna kill the president but i'm not going to tell you when I got in contact with him because that would implicate the FBI as being setting up a honey trap...I think why else wouldn't he tell why was when he got involved? Because it was really a long time ago yeah there you go You have to give me some insight on how somebody would go about contacting someone how would I do that how did you do that do you do that through

CHAPTER 11 / 50 Discussion

Media Reporting Failures, FBI Counter-Intelligence Shifts

The reporting on the Christopher Cornell case is cited as an example of the media's failure to ask basic technical questions about "encrypted messaging" and FBI involvement. There is speculation that personnel shifts within the FBI and CIA have led to less sophisticated counter-intelligence operations. The current "catch and release" or "sting" cycles are described as amateurish attempts to influence public perception.

32:53 Um, you know YouTube videos? Great question lady. Do you get in contact through YouTube videos yes I encode secret messages in my YouTube videos that's how I do it Yeah YouTube videos? Do you use encrypted messaging Oh encrypt- let's throw the encrypted messaging in there Were you to carry out this plan to wage jihad What what what Okay I'm a reporter and somebody says that to me Especially a dumb fuck like this guy and I use the word you don't use that word lightly And I don't use that word lightly a dumb guy like this moron Says to me. I using crypted messaging the first thing I say is really what program? Yeah exactly What kind of program would he do what program are used, and I'm curious well listen Chris I have some pet peeve about reporting in general about these things is

33:50 Is I have a couple reports? 2015. This is crazy when we don't ask these simple things By the way, I have a topper for you then later are you gonna top me yeah I'm so dedicated that risk my life You know, that should say a whole lot. If you weren't arrested that day when you were at a gun store buying two guns and 600 rounds of ammunition what would have done? What have I done?! I would've took my gun...I would put it to Obama's head! I would pull the trigger then i would unleash more bullets on the Senate and House of Representative members then I would attack the Israeli Embassy and various other buildings full of Kufar

34:45 and when the wage war against those Muslims. Can you give me an idea of other things that you would write on encrypted messages? Talking about how we used to raise jihad in America Yeah, yeah what do you think dummy We used to form our own groups in alliance with Islamic State When I say groups...I mean ummm What would you call uh sleeper cells? I love how he laughs, what did you call her? Sleeper cells! To bring this upon yourself so that it awakens the sleeper cells so speak I don't know, you might have to stick around and watch. Ooh! Them's fighting words man from cell with three phone calls. Call me! What? Get it, I want our boy Fletcher to get us a call-me because this is an amateur hour compared to what was going on with the last guy in charge It's pretty damn sad ain't it

35:39 This doesn't compare, hold a candle to anything that's gone on before in terms of the setup and then you know catch and release as it were. Well he's...you'll hear him say in a moment he has some messaging as well because the media didn't get it right this is so amateurish Oh! This is terrible off-the charts They must have shifted some people around in the agency Well we know they're doing that We know they're doing that. We know CIA, FBI everybody's moving around. They're all moving around and so the FBI guys that were in charge of this counter COINTELPRO or whatever you want to call it yeah advertising I was essentially said I'm using the word that's okay essentially

36:25 But they've been moved out of that position to be replaced by other people who think they can do it better, and they have shown that they can't do it better. This is terrible! It's very very bad We're going to try and fool the American public Well... Don't insult our intelligence That is kind of gonna work If you just take little sound bites from this and they only had eight minutes, I've chopped it down. And she said she had a whole hour. This guy's no good he's a crappy actor He can't even read his lines Yeah well It was just poorly done Obviously we would have passed on him I mean I would have said to his agent don't you ever send that guy to me again But are you insane? Ever Again give me the guy like a guy like does BB-9 Netanyahu Give me one of those guys Those are actors Think is coming What i think its coming

CHAPTER 12 / 50 Discussion

ISIS Domestic Threat Narrative, James Comey Criticism

The narrative of ISIS "sleeper cells" in every U.S. state, including Ohio, is presented as an "epic fail" in terms of propaganda execution. FBI Director James Comey is criticized for the handling of these domestic terror narratives. The hosts argue that the government is intentionally shifting the focus to "self-radicalized" homegrown threats to justify ongoing surveillance and military spending.

isis· james comey· fbi· terrorism· ohio· propaganda· domestic threat

37:13 Um, many things. There will be indeed many attacks. Oh! There will be you know... Oh please! No wait for it! We'll raise the ban on Tlahide over the capital. I'm not gonna give away too much Were you up until January in contact with people overseas? I won't give you that information. Well, how do they tell you? I'm in contact with many How organized is the Islamic State to the thing is did you hear this but this chopping back and forth is horribly edited We are indeed here in America when each and every state oh we're here in Ohio Yeah, yeah, hi over in every state all right more organized than you think how strong are you in Ohio

37:59 Ohio strong? Wait and watch. Wait and watch! Whoa, ha-ha! Wait... change my flight! Finally human beings to shoot at! Come on! Come on Ohio bring it on Texas is ready for y'all What a dick who says that who would ever say we're gonna we're gonna commit terrorism in Texas this is dumb in texas. Ohio or New York City, Washington DC or every single state you can name just about how come no one else in ohio is running for president? Yeah like you being so vocal and trying to carry out their plan because we are waiting for the perfect moment I'm one of those americans yeah and I'm trying to understand what would you say to these Americans there's a lot

39:01 innocent people here. Don't you believe that, you know I'm an innocent person? Your father your family they're innocent people and do you want to bring them down as well? Understand we don't kill innocent people We kill those who fight us Planting pipe bombs This editing is atrocious It's not even I know that on television audio is you know like a an ugly stepsister But this this is really poor at the Capitol to get people to run out So that you could pick them off with your 600 rounds of ammo leading the witness Okay, but how those people some of which were innocent employees somebody that works in a Capitol building. They're not passing laws They're not picking up a gun so therefore it's a job and

39:49 They're sending people out with guns, I'd say. Well not the person that's answering the phone Not the receptionist that is going to get panicked because... Nice color commentary Now it's just getting inane Just wait for him but he is almost over He's gonna do his big promo Pipe bombs are going out and she's gonna be running across the... Yeah! Kill her Like America says there's collateral damage It happens, its inevitable But that's not who I was targeting. Like I said, I was targeting President Obama the Senate and the House of Representative members What the media also failed to mention was the planned attack against Israel, planning on attacking the Israeli embassy Bro! Excuse me media you failed to copy the script Please we need some Jew stuff in here. Jew stuff, Jew stuff We're gonna attack the Israeli Embassy

40:44 How come you didn't people put the Jew stuff in? Arab-Jew, Jew-Arab, Arab-Jew. Fuck you Comey! I hate this. Directly it's just wow. They're gonna have to they must be having meetings about this This is a epic fail Yeah whoa wait a minute You said it I thought and here it is Epic Fail Exactly Of epic proportions Yeah, no. And this is actually laughable! Then we have this guy reading apparently reading whatever he's reading that was given to him and calling three times and all the rest of it just... It's insulting you can say it again. Find the other guys who were doing this before

41:32 They're probably working for Universal Pictures now, or they're screenwriters. I don't know what they are up to that's why what they are doing but find those guys and put them back in charge of this. It was a creative idea i think it was well I think well-intentioned as a six week scaram cycle. It was well intentioned, but the execution is shit. Who is doing PR and marketing there? That's really the problem that you and I could have written this better and just in one press release from from the FBI it would have been a better story if this we never would have done this

42:11 At least not like this. No, I've been a lot different and you try to cover up it You do in such a way that you're covering up the information That you want out? Yeah, see precisely The embassy thing is it you make it show we weren't supposed to say anything Oh my god, this is terrible that this got out. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly yeah, yes an easier approach to take and totally botching the whole thing like this Call again. Hey, she wouldn't answer the phone man! Call her again! Okay okay hello how do I get to the control room? Ask for what's-her-name...okay what's her name you there now she's not here click She wouldn't...call again

42:51 I mean, this is terrible. Yeah it really is bad if the guy had made like a secret tape or something that would work anything anything yeah we have him we had was one phone call and he called to his handler so maybe we could've done so many different things yeah right there's a lot of oh well not just gonna continue I think every day another six weeks you see that was the They're gonna want to do over for sure. Well, they will they do in six weeks or that may be a problem Oh at tax time But here's what's interesting because we have this shift now We know that but we can't do is go and kill everybody Because I would just make the recruiting worse if this has to go on and on and on And our children are children's children about children's children's children They're going to be dealing with this terrorism homegrown self radicalized So now we need to shifted and Comey needs to step up

CHAPTER 13 / 50 Discussion

Tax Day News Cycles, John Kerry Protester Response

The hosts discuss the tendency for major news events to occur around April 15th (Tax Day), citing the Boston Marathon bombing as a past example. During a recent testimony, Secretary of State John Kerry responded directly to a Code Pink protester, which is described as a "rookie mistake." Kerry used the opportunity to pivot to a narrative about beheaded journalists and "freedom fighters" in Jordan.

tax day· boston bombing· john kerry· code pink· protest· propaganda

43:41 the F up. He really needs to get a better handle on what he's doing... Interviewer 2 It is an idealist of some sort and he's a banker. John Ligato Well, from HSBC which is frightening. He's powerful this man but he just doesn't know what to do. I can be on the compensation committee it's whatever you think it is anyway Just to illustrate... Please, after you. I don't know why we're doing this. We don't usually have this issue. I was gonna reiterate that because the next cycle hits on April 15th, I think there's opportunities here because it's tax day. Interesting and we had...

44:26 We like to do things on tax day, around tax day. Boston bombing wasn't that... No was it? Was that around tax day? There was something on the tax day couple years ago. Okay so just to illustrate how the fake narrative which is fake for instance beheading videos etc well really the beheading videos and the burning man video and then there's the other videos with the cages with the lock still on them with the key in it holy moly Here is... That video with the key and lock is a classic. Classic! So this is... That was just a botch. Now we're going back to Kerry for a minute, at the end of his testimony—no I think as he was starting his testimony—at the end of the introduction there's a protester, code pink but a guy stands up and then he's yelling Heming and Hawking actually in kind of a civilized way

45:20 And he says something, he says you're killing...the American people don't want anymore. You're killing innocent civilians." Then Kerry makes a fundamental mistake as he actually pays attention and responds to the protester which is rookie mistake as far as I'm concerned. But you do not respond to a heckler when he's in handcuffs. It does not necessary. Not if it was planned? It could be planned, but it sounds like it's not. And he's thinking on his feet and he rolls out the narrative to a tee. When I came here last time, I mentioned that... American people are speaking now of Secretary Kerry We're tired of an endless war. We don't want to go into this war with no country. The committee will be in order. Look, we appreciate... Another endless wars killing of innocent peoples

46:13 Okay, if this happens again I would ask the police to escort immediately people out of the room. Why leave him there now? Well hold on... Killing more innocent people. I wonder how our journalists were beheaded And a pilot who is fighting for freedom, who was burned alive. Fighting for freedom! What they would have to say to their efforts to protect innocent people Now he could've said you know Christians on the mountain children He could come up with a million examples of ISIS atrocities

CHAPTER 14 / 50 Discussion

Religious War Narrative, ISIS and Nazi Comparisons

Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) testified that the conflict with ISIS is a "war within a religion." During the testimony, a comparison was made between ISIS and the Nazis, which the hosts reject as a systematic exaggeration. They argue that the "systematic approach" of the Holocaust is being inappropriately used to frame the current conflict with Islamic extremism.

isis· islam· nazi germany· holocaust· jay sekulow· aclj

46:51 No, it's journalists and a pilot fighting for freedom. In Jordan that is your free state we're talking about here? Freedom fighter! Freedom fighter! Jordan I don't think so... Yeah then we had this guy was a total massive shill Sekulo I think he is from the ACLJ which is the American Center of Law and justice, do you know anything about that org? No. Okay well he's in there testifying because of course he has the message it's another part of the message which we hear over and over again And I think the Islamic State is a perfect example of this ISIS now called ISIL now just called the Islamic state or advertising has a view that if you are a Muslim that disagrees with them you are an infidel In fact in one sense they're worse

47:40 than other religious groups. So that's why you're seeing this kind of mass destruction within the Muslim community I was talking with a friend of mine, Canon Andrew White who is the vicar of Baghdad for the Anglican Church That's the guy who said the kids were being beheaded remember that? They cut off their heads! In England he is now in Jordan and he said if you look at the indiscriminate nature of ISIS they have very narrow view on their version of Sunni Islam But you now have this pledging of allegiance by these other groups. You are what we don't want to call it, you know No one likes to say you're in a war with in a religion war but we are senators as you said no one wants To say were in war with Islam well tell that to Khalif Ibrahim It may not be the Islam that most of the people support and here comes granted but it is this version And then this version is toxic as the Nazis Yeah, and I lost a lot of family members in Nazi Germany so I'll bring on the Holocaust

48:35 I'm sorry, this is in no way like the Nazis and Hitler. I don't see the similarities unless you mean Jews Arabs Jews Arabs hate Jews. This isn't there's no similarity with No, no, it's not none whatsoever except here whole side of my family was wiped out a Nazi Germany so yeah but it said same kind of systematic approach systematic approach know there's this is not a systematic approach to killing Jews but that's what has been turned into sadly Sadly, that was a b-b-boom. Again, I'm seeing this idea which may be a bigger notion than we think of it on the show. Okay? Which is the idea of setting up something or other shop and they've got you know like the guy from who in South Sudan or wherever was said that this whole thing was set up by CIA and then Mossad Oh, you mean the president

CHAPTER 15 / 50 Discussion

Geopolitical Honeypots, President of Sudan CIA Claims

The "honeypot theory" suggests that conflicts are sometimes manufactured to draw in and contain radical fighters. President Omar al-Bashir of Sudan is quoted claiming that the CIA and Mossad are behind groups like Boko Haram and ISIS. This strategy is compared to an "ant trap" designed to isolate and eliminate threats in a controlled environment.

sudan· omar al-bashir· cia· mossad· boko haram· isis· honeypot

49:38 Sudan? Mali, was it Mali or Somalia somewhere. You know what this should have by now this should have been an evergreen clip we've called for this so many times here it is go ahead continue I'll find it while you're talking that you set these things up because the idea was actually a kind of a I guess a chrysalis of an idea during the Bush administration which was let's start this war This was, you know after we there was no weapons of mass destruction. But let's continue this war in Iraq because it draws in fighters from all around into a group some into an area where we can contain them and then kill him in this never-ending battle just keep killing them It's like an ant trap

50:21 You put this thing out there and all the ants go into it, they go, oh this is delicious. And they stay there and then they die. I suggest that's because of the letter that was...because we pulled a...I believe we've now pulled that same stunt on the Republican Party at least the conservatives in the Republican Party who like suckers wrote that letter and put their names on it. which is again a way of isolating people, finding out exactly who they are. And I would... here's what my prediction would be on this Find out the guys who came up with the idea for the letter, and they will be Republicans. Look into them and see what happens in the long term to them as opposed to the other people who signed the letter because I believe those guys are the phonies. And I'm reminded of a situation that happened at University of California during the rioting years that took place

51:16 where this guy, he was a very famous politician. I think he's still alive and is still around his name Peter Kameho. He incited the students to run into Sproul Hall and occupy the administration of the university so that...and then knowing they would get arrested. He snuck out the back door And I think the Republicans who created this letter will be one or two guys, maybe just one. Who'll sneak out the back door on this deal and he'll come out smelling like a rose while everybody else is now isolated and condemned So this may be a giant policy that's going on

51:57 And it all is honeypots, the honeypot theory of politics. It just seems that that is what we're looking at Just briefly, for archival purposes here's the president of Sudan. The President of Sudan has warned that the fight against jihadist extremism must engage militants on an ideological level and not solely concentrate on military action against them Omar al-Bashir warned that simply using violence against young radicals who fight with organizations like ISIL and Al Qaeda could lead to even more extremism He says the CIA and Mossad are behind Boko Haram and ISIL. There you go! I haven't heard from the guy in a while... I just thought about one other thing, when they're talking about all in the UK news services and American news service they talk about X number of Americans we kind of know who they are who've left the country to go fight with these guys Yeah, they know the exact number

CHAPTER 16 / 50 Discussion

Republican Letter to Iran, Tom Cotton Leadership

A group of 47 Republican senators, led by Tom Cotton, sent a letter to the Iranian leadership explaining U.S. constitutional law regarding treaty approval. The letter is analyzed as a potential "honeypot" within domestic politics to isolate certain conservative factions. The hosts discuss whether this move was intended to undermine the Obama administration or if it was a coordinated effort involving establishment Republicans like John McCain.

tom cotton· iran· republican party· logan act· tea party· senate

52:55 They know who they are and they let them do it. And then they also seem to have methodologies put in place so they can do it easily. So explain one more time the letter, because I like this meta approach... Explain exactly what the letter was because I don't think that we made that clear. There were, I believe it's 47. I could look it up and get the exact number but there was a letter written by a subsegment of the Republican Party in the House of Representatives. Do you have any names who were on that? Rand Paul, was he on it? No. I don't think Rand...I don't know. I can do that. Go ahead. I'll look while you talk. The Republican letter written to Iran and the letters said, Look whatever this president does we still have to approve. They made the excuse that this was a lesson in government

53:46 that was sent to the Iranians so they would understand that even if the president does what he's gonna do, whatever it is to some agreement. They still has to go through us and so don't get too cocky you guys." And it was just a kind of crazy thing I've never seen before in my life and it came out of the blue. Well let's see what Voice Of America writes about it because we know they are a direct propaganda arm certainly of this administration Let me see if they name names or if they put anything big. The names are there, but I'm talking about if they promote certain names to make it look oh yeah that's yes you what? Yeah don't say anything off the bat but...I like it! I like it! Yeah we'll look into that further and get the names. Keep on this track keep on this track is good. Cotton I think is the guy who was leading at Tom Cotton But I do not know of the rest of them and cotton what has he known for have we ever had any dealings with him

54:47 You're hearing, by the way how the show goes in real time when we're actually coming up with ideas. I'm going to look at this search on nashownotes.com and see what i come up with if we've had this guy before. Okay there's...I guess this is a mixture of senators and congressmen because Cotton's a senator Yeah but it was just Republicans Well, it's all conservative Republicans. Tea Party guys are trying to do what they do and they're trying to screw the very conservative Republicans who aren't playing ball. So the Republicans could be in on it too by the way? Oh definitely! No I think it's a Republican idea. Okay, so McCain is running it that would be the guy well I don't know if McCain's that...well maybe

CHAPTER 17 / 50 Discussion

ISIS Translator Interview, Mock Executions Explained

Sky News interviewed a purported ISIS translator who explained why hostages appear calm in execution videos. According to the source, hostages are subjected to numerous "mock executions" until the process becomes normalized, leading them to believe they are only being filmed for a video rather than being killed. This is presented as a psychological manipulation tactic used by the group.

isis· sky news· mock execution· propaganda· hostages· translator

55:39 Just to wrap up this portion that I have And we have been talking, and I have an email that I want to read in a second which pertains to helping people who come into the No Agenda family later on. A lot of catching up is not always easy but I think sometimes we also take for granted that everybody knows what were talking about because... Six week cycle would be one of them! Yeah as an example Now from day 1 called these beheading videos fake And we have plenty of experts, even the Burning Man video of the Jordanian...the Freedom Fighter. The Jordanian pilot all that totally fake now about I want to We did have one guy coming in from with with creds and said it was real that burning video

56:26 And he said, why would they go through all this trouble of faking this when it would just be easier to burn some guy? I didn't answer him correctly. The answer to that is because maybe they didn't want to burn a guy. It's like a studio in London someplace. They're not going to burn somebody. So here we go. Sky News got ahold of an ISIS translator And this is pretty much a guy who speaks decent English with... and he has the haqib, so he's just got the letterbox, you know, the mailbox in front of his eyes. Whether that's a disguise or whether he's a woman I don't know because we didn't even know if it was really his voice or not because you can't see anything moving and they ask—the question is posed—why

57:13 Are all these beheading victims so incredibly calm? Which is kind of the first irksome thing about these videos. This guy's just sitting there, same with the guy in the cage he's like yeah whatever you know I'll walk in slow motion over here look at everybody up there on the hill and... I'll be in there and I'm jump cut then I'll just stand while the fire engulfs me I won't try to roll over the cage So why is that? Islamic State's ability to manipulate social media, to promote jihad with professionally produced films is well documented. Although you are more than 8500 km away from the Islamic state... But it's the treatment and graphic murder of their hostages that's most shocking. Why are they always so calm? Saleh is nominally a translator but he was used to do a different job

58:05 He was employed by a Turkish man to convince the hostages they were safe. Every single one of the murdered was subjected to mock executions many, many times until it became normal and then they met John. He said to me say to them no problem we only video you We don't kill you. We want from your government stop attack Syria We don't have any problem with you. You are only our guest." And what he said there was, you're our guests or visitors So the way that they're now being explained that these videos... The first fake thing you see is that everyone's so calm because they've rehearsed it a thousand times There's no life in the scene people! You cannot over-rehearse things

CHAPTER 18 / 50 Discussion

European Army Proposal, Lisbon Treaty Article 28

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker called for the creation of a European army, a move Nigel Farage claims was previously dismissed as a "dangerous fantasy." The proposal relies on Articles 27 and 28 of the Lisbon Treaty, which provide for a common defense policy and the use of military assets for peacekeeping and counter-terrorism. Farage argues this is a project about power rather than peace.

jean-claude juncker· european union· lisbon treaty· nigel farage· eu army

59:09 I wonder about any of this. Well, hello that guy well You know what you're gonna put some guy on and you're gonna do alter his voice go with the higher Frequencies if you're going to do instead having the guys voice so deep he can't understand a word He's saying you can twist it the other way, you know Yeah Of course, but sky and some Murdoch outfit this leads right into Junker the drunker big Juana there at the European Union calling for something that was promised would never ever, ever happen. This will not... No this is not going to happen we're gonna have a common currency don't worry about it's not gonna happen. No, Beery is directing or referring directly to article 27 and 28 of the Lisbon Treaty which some of you well if you've been around the show for awhile this actually what got me interested in deconstructing media at all when I read the Lisbon Treaty

1:00:04 and saw that what was being portrayed in the media had really nothing to do with it. You could be legally killed by police forces, all kinds of stuff in there. And now we have our friend Faraj responding to Junker The Drunker's call for a European army! An EU force, everybody. They promised it wouldn't happen but here it is... I've been wondering why David Cameron's been slashing our armed forces won't commit to 2% he's happy for us not to be able to defend our island islands. I think Mr Juncker has given us the answer, we're going to do it at an EU level and we are going to have a European army now when i raised this last year with the Deputy Prime Minister Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg he said that was a dangerous fantasy to even talk about any you army I hope every liberal democrat voter has heard mr behofstadt today the leader of the european liberals crying out for militarisation at an EU level

1:01:01 Of course the truth is, it's already happening. We already have a European Defense Agency. We already have EU battle groups on active service all over the world, we already have an EU Navy active against the Somali pirates and who can forget Eurocorps here in Strasbourg last year virtually goose-stepping that ghastly flag around the courtyard outside. And of course the Lisbon Treaty Article 28 provides for all this. Yeah it does! I looked it up The common security and defense policy shall be an integral part of the common foreign and security policy. It shall provide the Union with an operational capacity drawing on civil and military assets, the Union may use them on missions outside the Union for peacekeeping conflict prevention and strengthening international security in accordance with the principles of the United Nations Charter." And this is all according to Article 28

1:02:00 The task referred to in Article 27.1, actually it's the other way around this is the one that says you can do it but you can use it for terrorism. Here it is a joint disarmament operations humanitarian rescue tasks military advice assistant tasks conflict prevention peacekeeping tasks tasks of combat forces and crisis management including peacemaking and peacemaking and post-conflict stabilization and counterterrorism! Yes So your whole little thesis here, the whole beginning of this show is...this is the punchline. It's kind of a shaggy dog story by the way. But the punch line comes in that now and I want to say that you...I'm going to go all-in with you on this but I'm gonna back off again and look at it. See how I winded up? No well first of all I'm gonna throw my opinion about The American's perspective on this. Very good

A breakdown of global military spending shows the U.S. budget at $640 billion, exceeding the combined spending of the next eight countries. The discussion explores the potential for a European army to reduce the U.S. burden as an international policeman. There is also a focus on German management within the EU and the historical context of German military expansionism.

1:02:49 We have been sick and tired as a nation in a subconscious way, of course. Nobody expresses this but it's the way everyone thinks at least who knows or would have any influence on any of it the elites of getting involved in these European fracas. World War I was crappy, World War II put us in the position we're in as an international policeman because we are apparently the only country that can spend so much money on all this stuff and if you don't have a clip on this... Every time I forget to bring the clip in, I had it on last show which is the rundown of the amount of money everybody spends

1:03:27 on military. And ours, our number 600 million billion, 600 billions plus 660 something like that is the entire budget... Military spending rundown? I have the clip. Yeah play that. Okay hold on let me just grab it and i think i can hold I'm sorry it didn't mean to- fuck, crazy shit. I had to cut. I'm sorry but i get mad because it should just work and I'm so proud that I got it and then okay here we go. I'm sorry, it was Tourette's. It is worth noting that China's military budget pales in comparison to the United States. In 2014, the Pentagon's budget was a staggering $640 billion dollars China comes in second with 188 billion followed by Russia with 87.8 billion Saudi Arabia spends 67 billion

1:04:19 France allocates 61.1 billion for military spending, the United Kingdom 57.9 and Germany 48.8 billion. Rounding out the top nine countries is Japan at 48.6 and India at 47.4 combined those eight countries spend 607 billion a year on their militaries 40 billion less than the U.S So, we have to be thinking at some point even though the military industrial complex doesn't like it that maybe it would be kind of cool if we didn't get involved in like a third fracas. Just a thought perhaps because I don't think this would be a good idea especially with all the nukes and things flying around and maybe it's a good thing if you had a...yeah let's face it this is a German takeover but

1:05:13 The Germans have been at it and at it and at it since the Franco-Prussian War or before. In 1700s, they've been battling...actually if you go back to the Greek historian Tacitus, they talk about these Germans. Anyway, they're good managers. They're kind of pushy about certain things. Nobody really likes working for them. They're good managers but they could run... Light the oven Hans! They would find a reasonably good, I think maybe...I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the Brits should do it with somebody could have a joint management structure, I'm sure but if they had one army the likelihood of the civil war that would be between Germany and France once again within the EU would lessen, I think and that's been always my fear. And so I think we'd be behind this and encourage it

1:06:03 I think it would be a benefit to the United States of this. And we could also pass, you know... Hey! You guys should go down to the Middle East and do some work. Yeah kick some ass. Remember Rommel? I'm just trying to begin again like you said, we ad libbed the show. I am enjoying this thing because this is actually the kind of thinking that i'm not always able to get out of you Yeah, well it's just... Go on and finish up your... Okay I'll just finish up with Farage because he gets interrupted by the douchebag from Brussels, from Belgium. Tony Blair was right! He said the European Union is not a project about peace It's a project about power And I think Mr Juncker is trying to seize an opportunity We ourselves in the European Union provoked the conflict through our territorial expansionism in Ukraine

CHAPTER 20 / 50 Discussion

NATO Baltic War Games, Russia Border Tensions

NATO has tripled its air missions in the Baltic states in response to Russian warplanes testing borders. U.S. troops from the 2nd Cavalry Regiment are participating in war games in Lithuania to simulate conflict with Russia. These actions are intended to show a collective defense against potential Russian aggression and prevent the alliance from being split.

nato· baltic states· lithuania· russia· vladimir putin· war games

1:06:57 we poked the Russian bear with a stick and unsurprisingly Putin reacted. But this now is to be used as an opportunity to build a European army and when? I know that by heckling you increase your hits on YouTube because otherwise nobody in Europe wants to listen to you. So now we go into translation mode so it's just a little bit heated the guy is like what kind of babies are they in there he was like who was that guy that was Verhofstraten from Belgium

1:07:36 The Honorable Gentleman from Belgium. Just a moment, please just a moment. And this is of course the German guy with it was his name that guy Mr. Farage just a moment please um just a moment please just a moment mr. For Hofstadt I turn to you I have to ask you Please to calm down You may not like this speech But we are Democrats and we listen to you too. So please do not interrupt." Well, we certainly are Democrats and we've never shouted you down but you always try and shout us down The point I was making is this the opportunity is being seized And Mr Juncker said that we must convey to Russia that we're serious Who do you think you're kidding? Mr Junker

1:08:23 We do not want any part of an EU army and I doubt the rest of the peoples of Europe do either. Exactly, thank you very much. You know another interesting little possibility here? Especially considering our recent abilities as a nation to rubble eyes other countries yes that if you could pass off, get that EU to put some big army together. You know the armies want to do one thing and they want to do one thing only they wanna fight and you push them over toward the Soviet or Soviets toward the Russians and Putin just have these guys rebelize each other. You would wipe out probably everything between

1:09:08 Berlin and halfway to Moscow in make it which is you know, rubble izing results in rebuilding Rebuilding results and profits. Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. This is a potential money man Well check this out what's happening in the Baltic States? It's an image from the Cold War, a Russian warplane flying along a NATO border testing the West. But this fully armed Russian fighter jet was filmed just weeks ago above three nervous NATO countries. The Baltics. NATO planes are busy they scramble and attack the Russians. Their missions have tripled in a year from their base in Lithuania which fears it could be the next target of Russian aggression

1:09:54 NATO is taking no chances. US troops from the 2nd Cavalry Regiment are not based in Lithuania, this a war game with local soldiers simulating conflict with hostile neighbour. This show of force is aimed squarely at Russia. a red line here with Moscow if you try to cause trouble the guys in the tank do another firing all around him by doing his stand up here or try to invade this is what you'll get question is is Russia listening? You're ready for any threat yeah we are trying to train and be ready for any threat

1:10:37 Many in NATO believe Russia's real aim is not just to test the alliance but to split and destroy it Oh, this shows that the US is willing to stand with this It's just an American soldier who just happens to be there all of its NATO Alliance partners Shows that we're strong Europe is strong. And there's a collective defense ready to defend against any foreign aggression Yeah goes on so yeah So this is because if course But what is happening, and now this is the end of the shaggy dog story. I am seeing an actual breakdown of society here in The Netherlands. Ah! Finally you got to the point. Here I am yes. Good. The number one story in past couple days a national story

CHAPTER 21 / 50 Discussion

Dutch Train Conductor Assaults, Societal Breakdown

Adam Curry reports on a trend in the Netherlands where train conductors are being physically assaulted by frustrated passengers. He notes a disturbing lack of intervention from other passengers during these incidents, characterizing it as a sign of societal breakdown. The conductors have considered striking due to the increasing violence and lack of public support.

netherlands· rotterdam· trains· assaults· societal breakdown· strikes

1:11:27 was train conductors. Now, the Netherlands a lot of trains people use a lot of trains there's a lot of issues with the trains to get frustrated on the trains because you know people oh There's a lot of suicides every day this two suicides committed in front of trains and there's code for that for those of you in the Netherlands when you hear the traffic reports And they say no the Train isn't Isn't ride isn't What it's a train rider drive train right train ride? The train isn't riding. It doesn't sound right now and be right, it's rolling because of a problem with the overhead wires that is code for someone jumped in front of the train and then stops everything this small country messes all the traffic is horrible message that it does yeah but people become so frustrated angry by society and what their lives are here. They're very good at you know keeping up appearances

1:12:23 that multiple times per day, train conductors the people who take the tickets not the machinist but the people who are checking your you know if you have a ticket they're beating them up Because people get mad and they just start yelling at them, kicking them in the shins. They want to go on strike now! They can't handle it anymore but worse... The way that passengers are beating up the conductors? Yes but worse not a single passenger is getting up and saying hey stop that That my friends is a complete societal breakdown Yeah well

CHAPTER 22 / 50 Discussion

Coping with Misinformation, Humor as a Shield

In response to a listener email about the stress of recognizing global manipulation, the hosts advocate for using humor as a psychological shield. They perform a role-play exercise regarding "pre-crime" and government overreach to demonstrate how to subversively challenge mainstream narratives. The "No Agenda" show is framed as a necessary tool for maintaining a balanced news diet amidst constant propaganda.

misinformation· humor· pre-crime· propaganda· no agenda· philosophy

1:13:04 Hmm interesting I doubt I cannot imagine that by the way. There's a dog story was one hour and 20 minutes I admire you if you kept my interest the whole time Well, I did want to I didn't want to wrap it up with one quick email which is important from Andrew Sawyer Adam I'm so thankful for you and John have been given a view of the world that I cannot stop looking at black as white And white is black I know that the world is manipulated so strongly in terms of what people see and hear. I've long since turned off my television, but my friends have not! They are SO convinced that terrorism is real... IT'S REAL!! that brown people are out to kill us. I just got shit on so badly in a group text for standing up and effectively saying, pre-crime is horseshit and i often find myself holding back in conversations where i know it's bullshit. I'm so burned out by this Adam! I sometimes wish i was an ignorant slave would be easier to just buy into the system. I really need some words of wisdom here man being not even 30 and knowing how fucked the world is... It's not helping. Please help

1:14:05 Yeah, well the difference is that you if you have I don't want you to go around. I don't think people should go around with that glib smirk of knowing and just shutting up about everything which so boy these guys are idiots. And the key to this of course is a sense of humor. This is all yes, yes, yes point in your life where if you look from above down on this action it's funny And if you can see it that way, and if you could see your friends being all upset about everything. You can't really discuss these things with them because... It doesn't work that way. ...You don't but you can put little, little uh, you can be subversive and put little creative comments like a little oh really? You think that would end up in the high degree must think this. Let's take just have a little play time here. The no agenda players

1:15:01 I'm all in on ISIS beheading videos. Okay? And then are you going to be in this conversation, John? You're gonna slip something in? Is this a good enough example for you? It's not the best example but it's an example I can use. Man, I can't believe those guys man. They like they burnt this guy alive man It was like his face was melting these guys are gonna come and kill us man there already in Ohio and Texas geez You really believe that? Yeah, man! I saw the video with my own eyes man So so what you're telling me is that your instead of being like to them your the cowardly lion you're afraid of these guys What kind of an American are you anyway? The rule follower

1:15:47 That was a very good example, actually. That was that was a strong example that was not just a little comment but that was really approaching it from a different angle saying who are you man? Thank you! We're Americans! Merica! We don't take crap from people! Don't tread on me!" I'm sorry, that flag is now racist. There's one approach but there are other approaches. There is commentary you can make but it always has to be from a perspective of the guy's crazy he's obviously astute... Let's use his example of pre-crime so... This one kind of bothers me because I don't even know where that comes in the conversation who believes in pre crime? The same people who believe in precancerous

1:16:28 All right, well dude I'll take that on. Okay what would a good example of pre-crime be? They arrested this guy because he was posting on Twitter that he was thinking about doing something So what? Well you know... Did he do anything? Well he could be self radicalized man it could be like ready to go shoot somebody shoot up the school or the mall don't you ever watch TV Well, I don't believe that TV is true. These are fictional stories. Wait a minute! You're telling me... Let's go back to your thinking about pre-crime. Do you think it's okay to arrest somebody before they actually do something even though there's no indication? Well yeah, the first job of the president is protect people

1:17:11 Well, then you can get a restraining order. What's wrong with that? That has been working for at least as well as it works. But not if the guy is crazy! If he is a crazy Muslim... You can get a restraining order. Hey- Oh wait a minute or do you take this first- He wants to kill Jews I'm a Jew! He wants to kill me! Maybe we should get you to give your DNA and then we could take a look for some genes and see what you might do 20 years from now And now pick you up take you out and shoot you in the head because of something somebody says you might do in twenty years So you're all in on that Well, good. Why don't you go volunteer right now? Go put your DNA in the system and see if you're like predisposed to do something. You think that's cool? Go do it! Volunteer!" You're a conspiratard man.

1:17:57 I don't think everyone should be obnoxious, to work this system. But you can take an approach that's... No no, after that last one you're the loneliest guy in school let me tell ya that! You have zero friends now. But I just think our conversation doesn't show up in school? Yeah, of course it's just showing up in school and colleges everywhere. Of course this is happening But the main point that you made is you have to see the humor That's why I'm always bummed that we're never nominated in the comedy category. I've no people laugh at least once during our show And it's not like a haha because you felt the punchline coming, the punch line was good. It is because something unexpected was said or an angle just approached from a humorous angle and it's funny! That's how you have to live through life because there's no other way to combat... Well, you put in the newsletter I liked that a lot and wrote down You are being bombarded by misinformation disinformation false information harmful information No agenda is a valuable shield against the damage

1:19:01 That was some frickin' poetry right there. Frickin' poetry! I love that, that was nice. Yeah it's a good one. Yeah but its absolutely true and we even have...it so true that we have a jingle for it. There's one thing you must remember, no agenda in the morning. For a healthy balanced news diet try NoAgendaShow.com And with that I'd like to thank you for your courage and say in the morning to you John C. Dvorak! Well in the morning to you Adam Curry In the morning all ships at sea boots on the ground feet in the air subs in the water and all the dames and knights out there Hey babes

Show Production, Facebook Fat Emoji Controversy

The hosts discuss show logistics, including artwork by Nick the Rat and the importance of scalable graphics for the website. They also critique Facebook's decision to remove the "feeling fat" emoji following a digital petition. This is cited as an example of "cultural Marxism" and the enforcement of political correctness in digital spaces.

Yeah, I did. Did you write down what it was? I wanted to say no

1:20:29 Well, I just want to remind the artists a couple of things one You do get it the art into the newsletter too So he's checked that out But make sure that the lettering inside within the art can shrink down to Adam size and I call Adams us because Adam humongous Adam shrinks his art down quite a bit for the no agenda show calm website which he is He does that he puts that one page together for the show with the artwork and the artwork is on that One page it's a multi-tabbed environment my friend. No I'm talking about there was no agenda showed okay, not one page Yes Yeah all the other pages the artwork changes sizes It's bigger and smaller is all over the place right but the minimum size that ever gets is on that particular page But also visual gags if it's if that's the main visual gag That's also hard sometimes

1:21:22 Yeah. So make sure that you can read it and sometimes you can't, but there was something else I wanted to say and I forgot what it was. That's okay But you wrote it down to remind me And I thought you'd write down a key word that would remind me what exactly I wanted to say Well now I know that I'm your secretary. I'll do that from now on Yes thank you very much Secretary Alright let's thank some people this is This is part of why it all works, and why we can speak freely and openly here. We can say things on this program that can't even be said at universities! The nucleus where learning ideas in free flow thought should be possible

1:22:03 Well, universities nowadays are so sponsored by large corporations that they have vested interest in political correctness is designed cultural Marxism to be To maintain a status quo. Did you hear that just quickly? Facebook has removed the feeling fat emoji because people get Digital petition and people are hurt by this Yeah, sad. So somebody would write... I don't know why don't use Facebook but there's emojis on Facebook i assume and then you can click one and it will go on your page to show what you're feeling at the moment and when you could click would be feeling fat and this hurt somebody else is feelings who doesn't even know you actually

1:22:50 Yeah, I guess just by you. Well no you know it's a friend is it have to be a friend Okay, well be somebody okay? But by you Using this emoji you have hurt somebody else's feelings because you are expressing yourself yeah but it's also of course bad for children to Express themselves as fat Because you know we're all equal We're just you know Is chubby okay? No. No, you can't say chubby that's that would be a huge insult I don't know Oh i do Rotund how is that? I like...I prefer Rubenesque myself Okay well there ya go Feeling rubinesque Use that It's artistic

A donor who works as an ER pharmacist expresses agreement with the hosts' assessment of the U.S. healthcare system. He raises concerns about the number of vaccines administered to children at once, specifically mentioning Gardasil and MMR.

Hillary Rosen, RIAA History and Media Strategy

Democratic strategist Hillary Rosen is criticized for her past role as the head of the RIAA, where she oversaw aggressive copyright enforcement against individuals. Her current role as a media consultant for the Clinton family is discussed in the context of a PBS NewsHour segment. The hosts recall her history of "putting old ladies in prison" over file-sharing.

1:44:44 if you need us to. Not a problem. I have absolutely too much content for today's program. Yeah, you got Sunday But I'm telling you this so that you can because you know what? I do is then I try to shoehorn it all in if you've got to stop me So we're not doing this for the next five hours Well, I didn't say I you know the first thing he did which took up forever I Didn't have any complaints about it was a shaggy dog story really wasn't a shady dog sir cuz there wasn't that funny and

1:45:43 But it was an interesting exposition of what's going on and I now we know new things like it's possible that the US you know in our Conniving ways were great at this may actually want a nuke in Iran because This is some really good. It's all right. This are some good. I think so yeah, and it's kind of you know I don't want to say no certainly creepy But it would definitely, and what difference does it make in the scheme of things when Pakistan's got a bunch of them? Hold on one second John. Hey Siri play Never Gonna Give You Up! I just wanted to add that to Rick Roll everybody

1:46:31 Now let's listen to some Hillary Clinton. He responds not, it works by the way. It works really does now that's terrible and works we're going to talk this is about the emails I presume but i have a lot of there's a couple of things here and I have a lot in his way this is again at gripe you you this is the top row was discussing a gripe about the media yeah now they are There's there we're listening to NewsHour with PBS and some guy can't remember his name Some independent, but he's a consultant for the Republican Party as a strategist kind of guys And and he and then Hillary's top dog apparently who was I don't know if this name rings a bell with anyone Hillary it was a Hilary. Yeah, Hillary Rosen Oh yeah? Yes her okay gotcha Can she separate up until you were done with this setup oh

1:47:26 No, I'm so sorry. If you remember Hillary Rosen give me a... You don't remember? Yes she's the Democratic strategist and she's a douchebag get. A douche bag former head of the RIAA who... Ah, yes. Thank you. Yeah yeah yeah. The record industry. That's what you're missing out on. Of course. You gotta remember that she's the one who put old ladies in prison! No seriously. She did I know. She's broke broken family she is a horrible person. She shouldn't be she should be booed off the stage. Broken family? What does that mean? Broken families. You got an old lady that all of a sudden has a $250 000 debt because she's broke.

CHAPTER 30 / 50 Discussion

Clinton Foundation, Saudi Arabian Donations Controversy

The Clinton Foundation's acceptance of large donations from countries with poor women's rights records, such as Saudi Arabia, is analyzed as an "extortion racket." Hillary Rosen's defense—that the foundation is transparent and that Hillary Clinton issued a scathing report on Saudi Arabia while Secretary of State—is dismissed as a "scam" where the public report serves as cover for deeper financial ties.

clinton foundation· saudi arabia· hillary clinton· extortion· transparency· women's rights

1:48:53 Rosen comes up with some bull crap and I want to talk about that when we're done with this clip. Can she separate real legitimate questions from reporters or from the public, from what is clearly going to continue to be a Republican witch hunt for her? Just very quickly Matthew Dowd one of the things that came up today was the question about money that The Clinton Foundation has taken from foreign countries that have treated women badly in some cases abused women, countries like Saudi Arabia. Secretary Clinton answered by saying she the foundation have been very open about what they do where do you see that issue? Well I wanted to clarify i actually think that issue Judy that you're bringing up now was actually a bigger issues than email issue as one I'm an independent so this isn't a Republican witch hunt first secondly The New York Times no Republican newspaper was the one that broke this story about this whole process and about the whole emails

1:49:44 But this idea that she walks around the world and claims that she says, I'm all for women's empowerment. I want women's rights and I'm doing that—and I shouldn't say just claims—she is doing a lot. But simultaneously, countries with the worst records on women's rights are giving large contributions to a foundation that she and her husband are part of is a huge problem. Hillary Rosen, final comment. One quick thing first of all the only reason we can even judge these countries is because of the total transparency of The Clinton Foundation unlike other foundations they've listed all of their data Secondly you know Saudi Arabia's a good example when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State she issued the most scathing report on Saudi Arabia's treatment of women that has ever been issued by the United States government ever and Saudi Arabia contributor to The Clinton Foundation what she said today was

1:50:31 They know where I stand. It's not going to change me, it never has and never will if they want to give money to save people's lives in Africa or in Haiti that is okay with me. Alright so let us start with a little understanding of how the extortion racket works Just for one slight interjection The question that they just discussed was asked by Andrea Mitchell You know, who was married to Greenspan? Yes. Just pointing that out and I have the clip if you want it if you call for it Yeah, play the clip and answer. Andrea thank you Andrea Thank You Andrea oh thank you Hillary Madam Secretary can you explain how you decided which of the personal emails to get rid off? This is the part that I like she's asking a very good question How did you decide which of the 30 thousand emails do you wanted to delete Which of course this is well the worst thing in the world

1:51:30 Well, before you go there because we did get to the other point. I actually have a... She asked it out of sequence so I'll shut up you go ahead i'll shut up well i'm just saying that I thought she was going to ask him about the Saudis yeah but that's the next yes she has two-part question oh the first part is my second part Yeah, exactly. It's the reverse in the actual question and answer. All right well let's hold off on that then. Okay I'll hold off, I got it. I just want to talk about what Clinton said to her regarding this Saudi Arabian thing and then they response from Rosen which was that this is a transparent operation and they stole all of his money from Saudi Arabia and I wanted to explain that the extortion racket doesn't work that way

1:52:15 The extortion racket works. I mean, there's an extortion going on here." She wrote a scathing report. Okay so what? It goes like this... Here's if you're the Saudi guys and said we need some money from you. We're not getting enough money from you guys. And she well you know you're going to say you know you wrote this horrible report about us but we still want more money from ya. Well that is a horrible thing. You know the report is at tip of an iceberg. It's exactly like what they did with North Korea You want the iceberg or do you want the report? The report makes me look good and it looks like we're on the up-and-up. So, do you want to report or do you want the iceberg? Give us some more money!

1:52:59 Okay, okay. You get some money." That's the way it goes! It doesn't go the way Hillary Rose is going to do it. So it was actually playing right into this moron's analysis where she says but she wrote such a scathing report about how horrible they are by saying that's how she was defending and on the up-and-up with these donors...it's really that IS THE SCAM Yeah. That's great! That is a scam, look what I can do...I got the Scathen Report but there's an iceberg underneath it you want the iceberg? No! But I don't want no iceberg Then give us some money How much?! Here take Uma- 150 million bucks for starters Here take my daughter Uma Abedin presidential model So to throw this at the public is nonsense Oh look she gave her the Scathen Report and then she still got the money huh how does that happen? Are people are is the press just dumb

CHAPTER 31 / 50 Discussion

Hillary Clinton Email Server, Media Technical Ignorance

Hillary Clinton's explanation for using a private email server is criticized for its technical inaccuracies. The hosts argue that the mainstream media is too "idiotic" to ask basic questions about server backups and NSA archiving. Clinton's claim that federal employees are solely responsible for deciding what to archive is presented as a deceptive narrative that ignores how government systems actually function.

hillary clinton· email server· nsa· archives· journalism· technology

1:53:52 Well, that's the part of my second part. Ah! There we go. This is Hillary nonsense regarding email. Andrea Mitchell asks a question this is one I don't know how often this question was asked or even this is the answer to Andrea's question but I want to play the Hillary nonsense regarding email they played Hilary then they go to this guy and then they go to Hillary Rose and they go back and forth and I wanna clear something up here listen to one other excerpt from Secretary Clinton this was in answer to a question about She said, you know how can the public trust they asked that she didn't delete emails that were professional but unflattering to her. Here's how she answered that You would have to ask that question to every single federal employee because the way the system works The federal employee the individual whether they have one device two devices three devices How many addresses? They make

1:54:46 the decision. So even if you have a work-related device with a work related dot gov account, you choose what goes on that. That is the way our system works and so we trust and count on the judgment of thousands maybe millions of people to make those decisions. Matthew Dowd, what about that? Well, I think she's right in that federal employees have to be held to a certain standard on how they conduct personal and that. But thousands of federal employees aren't the heir apparent for the Democratic Party to be the nominee as president and aren't ahead to be the likely president if the election were held today Hillary Clinton would be elected President United States so i'm hoping that she sees herself is holding herself through higher standards in the midst of this No no no This is not the way this should've gone

1:55:38 Somebody in the audience or somebody should have suggested, aren't all the emails that go through the federal system archived as such by the NSA and put on... Well no not even the NSA. As far as I know this is what happened during the era when Reagan was an office and you had Ollie North and Poindexter and all these guys They dug up their old emails that were on archives. Yeah, they've been erased and All in North would erase his emails People do that to get your box cleared out but that doesn't mean the mail is gone forever No, okay Hillary was indicating that well we're responsible for our own boxes and we just erase what we erase

1:56:17 Nobody called her out on this as bull crap. Well, that is another one of these technical issues that we deal with more and more in this technological society that the mainstream media, the press in general, is not prepared to address because they don't know fuck all! They don't know anything. They're idiots I'm looking at these guys, you know. There's like this Hillary thing there was like...I'm actually adding up the value of the cameras they're running these 5D Mark IIIs, $2-$3k camera. They know how stuff works! With a $2000 white lens at the end of it to get all this gear and they can't ask a question that

1:57:01 So obvious is aren't these backed up at the initial point where they're actually sent? And that's the problem with you having your own email server because you can do whatever you want with this stuff. But no, nobody says that. She goes on with it and if you played that clip again...actually don't play the clip again but that clip is this is a deceptive bullcrap answer and then nobody on the news hour says anything about it! The one guy says well she should keep herself to her higher level give me a break Here is a question about the server itself, which again shows just the poor knowledge base or at least quality of questions. Well the system we used was set up for President Clinton's office and it had numerous safeguards It was on property guarded by the Secret Service and there were no security breaches so I think that

CHAPTER 32 / 50 Discussion

State Department Email Hack, Cybersecurity Probes

The State Department's email system was reportedly hacked and subsequently shut down, a situation Hillary Clinton used to suggest her private server was more secure. Reporter Matt Lee questioned State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki about the extent of the breach. The hosts criticize the lack of technical specificity in the briefing, noting that "thousands of attacks" is a vague term used to avoid transparency.

state department· hacking· russia· cybersecurity· matt lee· jen psaki

1:57:59 The use of that server, which started with my husband certainly proved to be effective and secure. Now with respect to any sort of future issues I trust the American people to make their decisions about political and public matters, and I feel that i've taken unprecedented steps to provide these script related emails. They're going to be in the public domain uh... and uh...I think that uh... Americans will find that interesting and I look forward to having a discussion about that. Now there are so many questions that should have been asked about this you know just to say

1:58:51 there was no never an intrusion and was guarded by the Secret Service. You need some, they're more what kind of server? What was the line that was connected to it maybe not for this press conference but nobody seems to be asking that really something else took place which is between Matt and Jen which has been a little bit of reporting on but you know the State Department's email has been hacked and has subsequently been shut down Which really plays into Hillary's cards, I think. Yeah no i think it may actually be a setup to make Hillary look like... Thank you. A setup that would be like uh well look never happened to me! It just seems to me a little bit unusual where we're in every position

1:59:39 Hackers from Russia or wherever they are have more access to the State Department records and archives than the American public in Congress. So this is, he's asking a good question why do hackers have more access to your email than the American public and congress? Does that not strike you as being odd? In what capacity Matt? Well they hack your email system. Okay now this is where as much I love Matt... Matt you need to call me! Because you could shine here my friend. You could shine by first not saying well, it's been hacked Let's use some real adult word shall we did they penetrate a firewall the board was it an SSH issue? Was it maybe just someone who had a password or an administrator let's ask some real grown-up questions Yes Presuma and They're still in there apparently they're still in there Matt

2:00:31 No, no. There are no little green men running around... I don't make it out of the computer! And by the way let me stop you before you go on if he asked those questions that you just suggested what do you think Psaki would do? She'd fall over if she can answer those questions in a million years or she doesn't even know what you're talking about. I know but we have to start somebody has to start somewhere and she'd have to refer her to some other expert but then Matt Lee yeah I think is a guy who will follow through he might write up on What an opportunity, but just to say they're still in there? Come on. That's crap or whatever it is So they're seeing stuff that the rest of us can't see what are they seeing just don't use stuff right well Right I don't think you have an assessment unless there's something I don't know about your email capacity Of what actually they had access to we take precautions We fight thousands of attacks every single day stop

2:01:26 Could you please, is there a list of these thousands of attacks every single day? You are the most transparent administration in history. Are these DDoS attacks? Is it probing? What is it? Right but that's still an issue as far as you know As we've said it's it continues to be an issue obviously cyber security remains a no but from this one from this one From this one the one attack that caused the whole system because you just shut down the hole open well I'm just not gonna get that specific there are thousands of attacks. We deal with every day continue to come back why don't we start there? Someone has to start doing this This is necessary, this is know and

2:02:03 Instead, things are going with the media. They're gonna sacrifice me I know it's not gonna happen What do you think? Well it gets worse But here we have Hillary, throughout this entire press conference which was after the United Nations Women of the World We Are The World thing in which she answered these questions and made her statement. I watched the whole thing then because like oh i should have used two devices you know boy how dumb am I? I should have had a work device and I should have had a private device! You know that was just not smart not smart why didn't I do that?! And then our journalists in the tech media recode Kara Swisher

CHAPTER 33 / 50 Discussion

Hillary Clinton Device Usage, New York Times Reporting

Despite claiming she used a private server for "convenience" to carry only one device, Hillary Clinton admitted to Kara Swisher that she uses an iPhone, a BlackBerry, and two iPads. The hosts discuss the "kid gloves" treatment Clinton receives from the New York Times and other media outlets. They suggest that even some "Obama-bot" supporters are not "ready for Hillary" due to these ongoing controversies.

2:01:26 Could you please, is there a list of these thousands of attacks every single day? You are the most transparent administration in history. Are these DDoS attacks? Is it probing? What is it? Right but that's still an issue as far as you know As we've said it's it continues to be an issue obviously cyber security remains a no but from this one from this one From this one the one attack that caused the whole system because you just shut down the hole open well I'm just not gonna get that specific there are thousands of attacks.

You know that was just not smart not smart why didn't I do that?! And then our journalists in the tech media recode Kara Swisher

2:02:40 Gets this out of her. I have a you know an iPad, a mini iPad and iPhone in the Blackberry Oh seems like she has plenty of stuff all of a sudden please huh? BlackBerry Yeah, iPad Mini iPad went on an iPhone Diane Feinstein She said iPhone just my phone as she said it. She's had iPhone iPad iPad mini iPhone blackberry And a sidekick. You said iPhone and Blackberry? Yeah, yeah because... Play that again I gotta hear it again Okay sorry what was it called again? Recode yeah here we go I have uh you know an iPad a mini-iPad an iPhone in a blackberry She said iPhone and a blackberry that's two devices Hello! The same thing Why am I playing the clip

2:03:43 Well, that's why I wanted to confirm it because they didn't hear that iPhone Blackberry combo. Huh? Yeah All right And of course she's been called out on that right but not that I know of oh okay never mind what was I thinking Dianne Feinstein ran interference for her though, which was quite endearing. Do you see a problem with how this was done perception-wise? No not yet I don't because as i understand it the regulations were unclear and there's no specific law In November of last year, four months ago, the president in fact signed a law. And that law said that if you use your personal email and there's government material on it — that government material must be transferred within 20 days — that in itself said the situation isn't clear. Right. And I think what has to happen is it has to be cleared up. Oh! Diane running cover for Hillary there?

2:04:46 It's quite interesting. Well, I think we've talked about this in the last show and the show before or the last show not to show before but Hillary's idea to do this was wise. Yeah always yes it is much better than these... And still people got their questions in about the donations about the scam So the questions are there, but it's really all about the emails and the server and two devices of unprecedented. And she's going to go above and beyond a big...it just everyone buys into it. Let us remember that The New York Times broke this story and we're really soft on at all

2:05:29 on, you know being very careful because they were asked to come in and write the story. And the source of the story, the Grisilla guy or whoever it was, the hacker who discovered it in the first place and yeah, it was very soft. Yeah there are kids that got wearing kid gloves here There's a group large group with American media and the public that want Hillary to be president and then there's some larger groups that doesn't Yeah, and of course we'll see who wins that fight. Around Austin I hear the typical Obama-bot women like Hillary... They're not really happy with her anymore they're not ready for Hillary. They are NOT ready for Hillary! Doesn't sound like they're ready. That's what you mean, NOT ready for Hillary. Oh man man man You want to do something on Common Core which i just wanted to remind you? Yes

CHAPTER 34 / 50 Discussion

Common Core Protests, New Jersey Student Walkouts

A growing rebellion against Common Core testing is manifesting in student walkouts and occupations of superintendent offices in New Jersey. The protests, organized under hashtags like #OccupyNPS, target the rigorous and time-consuming national tests. The hosts link the testing infrastructure to Pearson Publishing and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

2:06:27 Wait, I'm sorry. I am remiss. I can't what well? I can't just do that without doing this in the I was looking up a bunch of stuff and, you know again the whole common core thing. Now their children are revolting! The children themselves they're doing walkouts or doing all this stuff that it was reminiscent when i was a kid when the kids actually did protest. When I was in high school I was involved in a walkout. Oh? Yeah What was it about? It was pretty... Actually what was it about? There's an error I'll tell you the story said there were some teacher that everybody loved

2:07:11 And they were going to fire him for some reason and they thought it was unjustified. Fiddling? Sorry? No, no I'm listening... And the students decided to do a walkout until this was resolved properly So, we did this huge walkout. Everybody left their classrooms and just got up and walked...I don't even know who came up with the idea or why it was done but everybody was involved. And back in the day you weren't beaten down like little slavelets and drugged up on Adderall, Ritalin or Adderall? I guess that must have been it. Whatever the case was, it was exciting. This is a high school so we all walked out of class and stood around outside. Then there was an announcement that whatever the situation was, and I wish I could remember

2:07:54 It was resolved and they're gonna do this and that, so everyone went back in. And so I guess the news media got wind of this or something... ...and they came over and some douchebag reporter pulled a fire alarm to get the kids to come back outside- So they could reshoot it? Yeah! So they could shoot some pictures! Oh man how- The walkout! Wow I think that may have been part of the genesis of my way of thinking. Funny how they did it at Newtown as well, it's funny. Yeah ring-ring and so they come out and you know what to say some guys in a newspaper they just want to take our pictures and so we went back into class oh man So the kids are going completely ballistic about this mainly because what? It's crap! Well its nine hour test

2:08:48 And they know it's crap. The funny thing is, I've got some interesting clips here and let's play the intro to it which is clip one which introduces us to the issue as its now evolving. Testing for the Common Core Learning Standards in US public schools began earlier this month And just as a rebellion is brewing against the Common Core, there are now protests building against the national tests associated with them. Reports of students refusing to take the test are coming in daily and if those numbers keep building it could endanger the goals of the standards themselves Our special correspondent for education John Merrow has the story from New Jersey

2:09:30 Something big is happening in New Jersey and it's being broadcast on YouTube. If you're like following us on Twitter or Instagram make sure you use the hashtags, hashtag OccupyNPS In Newark high school students occupied the superintendent's office for three days one of their issues? The Common Core test This is a pretty big deal we're taking back our district Politicians actually get very nervous when they see how many people are against one thing. They have money power, they have political power but we have people power It's happening in Montclair where a protest group released this video That's my old hood I'm trying to push back against the test because i'm not just a number and i'm not a dollar sign We are refusing the test, refuse the test Wait a minute, Montclair New Jersey is...I know people in the school system now Did they say Kimberly Academy?

2:10:22 I don't know. I didn't hear that, oh okay well the... I'll get on that. So all hell's breaking loose with this test and people are bailing out the test is a joke you can go i recommend people like was going to add this as long as Montclair state by the way yeah I know people there did you could go online google uh the common core tests, sample tests and you can go take some of these tests. And the worst ones are from this operation which is funded by Bill & Melinda Gates. Oh, of course! And that is what? What does it call? It's one that Pearson owns Pearson which is a new which has begun by this operation called achieve. Ah, yes achieve we've talked about it a lot where chief as a Has a colon powers and there's all these all these elites Greg Barrett ex-ceo of Intel It's got Lou Gerstner the chairman emeritus IBM the guys to run IBM I mean the whole thing go to search dot na show notes calm you'll find all of the top Yeah anyways a a a r grade P.

PARCC Testing Criticism, 12-Year-Old Activist

A 12-year-old girl's testimony against PARCC (Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers) testing has gained national attention. She argues that the tests are confusing, lack single correct answers for interpretive text, and are prohibitively expensive for school districts. The hosts highlight the "computer-intensive" nature of the tests as a financial burden that benefits technology vendors.

2:11:26 Oh, by the way this one guy that's ahead of it now is also the head of the Freedom or one of the top guys in The Freedom Project. And that's... Whatever that is? Apparently a PAC, a political PAC owned by Boehner, John Boehner. So the Republicans are involved in the money-making aspect to this but let's go on with these couple of clips. Now the second clip introduces I think who's the star of the show It's a little 12 year old girl who is now testifying, she in this clip she's testifying before the state senate or the state assembly and then she comes on later with an explanation of what she doesn't like about it. You can tell that she is like a very sharp charming girl that is

2:12:08 She understands what's wrong with this test and even though she could probably pass it quite easily, but play clip to. Bandits happening in the state capitol In conclusion The Park High Stakes standardized test will hurt our students teachers and school That is why I am refusing the park test this spring And i heard about what happened in New York how like 60 000 people opted out And I thought wow that's something we can't do about it Wait a minute that kid's a shill The kid is a shill. That kids a shill. She's definitely a shill and she's fantastic. Excellent.

2:12:55 The Common Core and the tests have their defenders. I think the Common Core state standards have upped the ante for everybody, that it is indeed more rigorous so we needed a more rigorous assessment All right, so this is one of the apologists. The testing company's Park P-A-R-C-C. Yes yes yes They're the ones owned by Pearson Publishing and there was all this Gates Foundation money and all this other stuff going on So they because I didn't realize it at the time but most of these tests are incredibly computer intensive What does that mean? And...and so they need all in this new gear

2:13:34 And in fact the little girl bitches about this. iPads or no, Dell laptops and stuff. Well they're actually Windows based. They're not cheap whatever the case is there's a short point to be made I think in clip three we can play that Julia Rubin is one of the founders of Save Our Schools New Jersey Nobody really cares about It's the ideology of the group. It's about saving our schools, it's about protecting those children. Strange bedfellows is what they say. And it's so much fun! One message many voices and that is a winning strategy The message? Tests take away from teaching and learning They're impacting the kind of education kids are getting because they're eating up a lot of instruction time with test preparation and test drilling If what you're measuring is English in math then all

2:14:20 And all these unimportant subjects like art and music and science, social studies languages you know that gets put aside. So how was your day? Now, this is an interesting point. There's only these two tests once for English and once for math what happened to stem? That's like bumping right into the other meme Right we got one meme the common core mean bumping into the stem meme And I think that's kind of interesting but let's listen again to the little 12 year old how good explain with some logic What's wrong with these tests her twelve-year-old daughter Raissa singles out a park test Have you taken it

2:14:58 I've taken some sample tests. What'd you think? It was very confusing You're supposed to pick one right answer, which is hard for a lot of people But the test must have a right answer They did have A RIGHT ANSWER like they had a defined right answer NINE! but they asked what- Dude dude dude this kid John this kid is...this is we need her This is good gives a gold mine. I mean she's 12 years when i was 12, it was like uh look I have a pubic hair. I couldn't talk like this kid this kids amazing oh no this kids fantastic Each of these is not a main idea all of them kind of tied in to the ideas so everybody had a different answer because everybody interpreted text differently

2:15:40 differently. There's never going to be one right way to solve a problem so why should there be one right answer? Left and Right MKUltra, John. MKUltra this kid for sure. Object to the cost of the tests They're saying New Jersey needs at least 575 million dollars I've heard of schools that are have a shortfall of 1 half-million and 3 quarters of a million So it is something This is costly Wow wow wow ok I'm liking this. Okay, play five. It must be in there. Students will spend up to 11 hours taking the test over nine days Most will take them on computers and everyone's expecting glitches I don't know what the computer thing is going to be like A lot of them There are all these different problems like dragging and dropping And a lot of students don't know how to do this kind of stuff on the computer I think that only people who benefit from this would be those who are selling the tests

CHAPTER 36 / 50 Discussion

Common Core Accountability, "Loser" Status Identification

The "accountability" measures of Common Core are criticized for failing to improve educational outcomes while increasing inequality. The hosts argue that the tests are designed to identify "losers" early in their academic careers. They suggest that the complex, two-hour sample tests for third graders are inappropriate and serve a broader agenda of social stratification.

common core· accountability· education· propaganda· third grade· testing

2:16:43 Wow, wow. Not quite clip of the day but borderline border line. Yeah yeah we have the ComiCorps last and kicker which you know is the finale. We have six do we need to do six? Oh it's six yeah this oh yes six has got one of the average counter advertisements they're starting to bring out that get people back on board. Occasion establishment has gone on the offensive. The old standardized test merely evaluated Tommy's ability to memorize basic facts. The new assessments measure deep understanding of the types of problems he will encounter in the real world." Oh yeah, critical thinking! Okay let me bring something out there for you. Critical thinking John! Here is an advisement go to Google and type common core sample tests and get school on some of these sites where they have actual sample tests and go to the third grade one

2:17:39 and take it, and tell me that this is appropriate testing for a third grader A. And whether this is appropriate testing for anybody." It's got propaganda... You read this piece of propaganda about something or other, and then you have to analyze it based on some structural aspect including I looked at some of these questions as if this is advanced thinking. This is crazy! It's completely nuts and So let's finish off the whole thing here with it, with the common core lasting kicker. And then we'll talk maybe about this. There is absolutely no data to show that imposing this quote unquote accountability has improved educational outcomes in fact just the opposite inequalities increased when they test primarily measure is the wealth of their families. Whoa! The wealth of their families? That's what it comes down to. Are you kidding me?!

2:18:39 This one supervising woman who is all in on this. I was asked the question, doesn't this just show to these kids that they're failures because they can't pass this test? Because the test is just a piece of crap and you're just not going to pass it if you're not really sitting there thinking about it very difficult. In fact, the questions that you take sample tests, they give you two hours to do them because it takes forever to figure out what they're trying to get you to answer like the little girl said. Yeah, there is a right answer but to get it pointless And the woman says, yeah well that may be true but they're gonna find that out anyway. This way they find out... this is what she basically said They're gonna find out that there are losers earlier and then we can deal with that before they get outta high school. Damn It was very harsh and if you look into this it's all big money The kind of money that's mostly technical That's where I wanted to go You sent me off on a research hunt and I diligently complied

Lumina Foundation, College Graduation Goals

The Lumina Foundation is identified as a major private organization committed to increasing the percentage of Americans with college degrees to 60% by 2025. Their promotional materials claim a shortage of 16 million graduates in the U.S. economy. The hosts analyze the foundation's mission as a push to scale up "innovations" in public universities.

lumina foundation· education· college degrees· 2025· workforce· philanthropy

2:19:39 And this is the Lumina Foundation. The Lumina Foundation, I was interested because the Lumina Foundation is part of the group that promotes the... what's this other organization? Yeah go ahead They give money and guidance to this other organization which gives money and guidance to another organization which gives money and guidance to the guys who put this common core together there's a good really good site you can look this up eras own ins against common core they got some very interesting things that indicate that Most of these ideas stem back to Tony Blair where they were stolen, but that's another discussion. But the Lumina Foundation which got me triggered on that at the bottom of this guy's lecture or essay in the Stanford Social Innovation Review it says the Lumina Foundation is the largest private foundation

2:20:36 in the United States or one of them committed solely, well it's the largest committed solely to enrollings and graduating more students from college. Right and they have a billion dollars And they have a billion dollars. And would you like me to take over for second with some analysis of that billion dollars? Yes, it's all yours now! I got my point out of the way that there is little 12 year old out there we have to be leery of... First off yeah no we need to employ this twelve year old Oh yeah Not quite sure what for but just imagine those beheading videos are completely bogative I heard on The Noah Jenner Show she'd be fantastic

2:21:12 So the Lumina Foundation, they have a little promo video. I figured it's always nice to first listen to the way they market themselves and what their mission is and then go over to the Form 990 which is a legal document that they file with the IRS which of course tells us exactly what they do not just in words but also the numbers are quite obvious about this all about Oh yeah, it's a nice little background music. Come on everybody! America's success in an increasingly competitive world economy depends upon our ability to solve two major problems First Our educational system is not producing the results our country needs The United States' economy faces a shortage of 16 million college graduates by the year 2025

2:21:56 For the first time in U.S. history, younger adults are less well-educated than their parents We know talent and drive are well distributed across our population But high income students are seven times more likely to get a college degree than our low income students Our universities have to do better at nurturing that talent because we cannot meet our educational goals until we find ways for all students to succeed The second problem is that universities exist in a competitive environment. This can work against us by keeping valuable ideas and strategies from spreading We have hot spots of innovative student success initiatives around the country Too often, these good ideas are staying where they're born There are nearly 700 public universities in the U.S., enrolling almost 7 million undergraduate students

2:22:44 to spread proven innovations and scale them up from place to place. Only then can we graduate a higher number of students, including low-income students with quality degrees. Solving these two major problems was the motivation for our 11 large public... I want to shoot myself! You get the idea blah blah blah Yeah, and there's also a couple of interesting things in there. She kind of says we have all these potential college students...I think she kinda says that there are a lot of wealthy kids that aren't going to college and we gotta get those kids back on that track. Okay now let's switch over to Form 990. The mission of Lumina Foundation is to expand access and success in education beyond high school

Lumina Foundation Financials, Executive Compensation

An analysis of the Lumina Foundation's Form 990 reveals it is a billion-dollar investment vehicle funded by corporate stocks and bonds. The foundation's executives receive high salaries, with the CEO making $700,000 and some directors earning $15,000 per hour of reported work. The hosts characterize the organization as a "drinking club" for elites rather than a purely philanthropic endeavor.

lumina foundation· form 990· irs· investments· executive pay· philanthropy

2:23:33 Particularly among adults, first-generation college students low income students and students of color. The mission is directed toward a single overarching goal this is it to increase the percentage of Americans with high quality degrees certificates and other credentials to 60% by the year 2025." Nice but a billion dollars? A billion dollars! And they... most of this money, where do you think it comes from? This billion dollars. I'm sorry let me ask the question differently so their gross income for 2013 was I think 92 million dollars Where do you think most of that income comes from because it's right here the numbers are right here

2:24:29 I don't know. From investments in corporate stocks, investments in bonds they have half a billion dollars in corporate stock and well actually 441 million and 552 million half a billion in other investments and they have a schedule attached to that you see it's mainly bonds they really don't spend a lot of money Well, actually I can tell you what they spend it on. They spend it on themselves obviously but they spent at conferences $3 million dollars research and publications $2 million dollars philanthropy's $7 million dollars so that this is an investment vehicle as what this is a tax-free because it's a 513 C could be four

2:25:09 tax-free, you just hand them their money. You get to deduct all that and then they have this huge beautiful drinking club as you would call it John and I'll tell you some of the salaries of the executives who are trying to help our children. Hold on a second let me scroll down...I have it all marked up in the show notes for you can find it at 703.noagendanotes.com Oops. This thing is 200 pages, by the way which is kind of nutty. Wow! Yeah basically they have... They got one guy dedicated to writing that thing So first of all all the directors are being paid you don't see this too often on a 990 at least not the kind of outfits we look at it's not abnormal for a director of a publicly traded company to make money but these people some of them have here zero hours

2:26:00 And that's a Gerald Bepko and he still got $5,000. So let's see we have... That's per week then we have... Yeah No, his total compensation was 5,000 but he worked zero hours. So Jay... Jay Famiglietti $5,000 for a year? Right. But then if you take Laura Palmer-Noon she made 30 thousand dollars for two hours of work. Oh so in other words you make 15 thousand dollars an hour if you actually work. Yeah and well that's not entirely true I think it's two per week

2:26:36 But it's not, is that bullshit? You know just a couple meetings didn't do anything. But this is a philanthropic organization isn't it I mean why do you need any don't just join the board and say I'm on the board and leave the money in there to help kids no um chief executive is making seven hundred thousand dollars nice uh the vice president and treasurer and cfo probably a lot of free expenses flights oh yeah all that's in there he's making half a million now it just goes on these people are making bank Big money being made here. And of course the you know, they have huge expenses that goes towards The stockbrokers so all this thing is is a write-off for all probably presumably Because they don't disclose who's putting money in or you know They just don't disclose that or where their money came from You know all these rich people are putting their money into this vehicle This thing spends me out ten twenty million a year doing some conferences and whatever traveling somewhere hanging out

Charter Schools and the Prison Pipeline

The push for charter schools is linked to a broader agenda of marginalizing students and routing them toward the privatized prison system. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is noted as an investor in the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA). The hosts argue that early identification of "failing" students through Common Core leads to a "fast track to prison" and a return to 19th-century-style slave labor.

2:27:36 There's another clip that I don't have. Yeah, I'm sure they're doing all of the above. There's another clip that I don't have because it came in late and was just showing up there apparently there is a lot of money going in from...I'll make this get this clip ready for Sunday. Money coming in from hedge funds into the Cuomo campaign and other campaigns in New York to promote the idea more and more Charter schools. Yeah, well yeah of course that's where the business is That's what the businesses and where the money is to be made this whole thing and random number theory Random number theory John that little that little girl who made the comment that you know some of these kids can't even don't even know a drag-and-drop is And when using your computer because they don't you know the poorer kids which she didn't say? Yeah But a lot of the kids can't do these things on the computer cuz they're not just could just not you know the third graders

2:28:34 for starters and so the idea is to wash them out as fast as you can get this charter schools up take the kids that have some chops, even the ones that don't have any money but somehow are really bright and puts them in the charter schools. Marginalize everybody else. This is what I'm believing is going on. Marginalize everybody else to get them into loser status as quickly as you can and then back it up with Corrections Corporation of America or Correction Corporation CCI or CCA that Bill and Melinda Gates...I don't know what this has to do with public health

2:29:11 anything or education, but they're big investors in the privatized prison system. Now let's just build up the prisons get these kids on a fast track to prison would spot them early that's what that woman said well you know these testos find these kids these dummies find dumbest kids we can and we'll find them early. And then you know what to do." She uses the word intervention, and that's what she is going to do. They're just going to route those kids right to jail where they are going to be used by the federal operation that that uses prisoners to do work. They build furniture, they do all these sorts of things for no money because it's a prison system of slave labor and we're back in business! We're back in the 1850s and nobody seems to give a crap

Student Loan Reform, Government as Middleman

President Obama's speech in Georgia regarding student loan reform is analyzed as a move to "enslave" students directly to the government. By cutting out big banks as middlemen, the government has become the primary creditor. The hosts question why the government "fights" to keep interest rates at 6% when it provides 0% interest loans to banks.

2:29:59 Democrat, black folks in the United States as to have this happening right under their noses and they don't seem to... well yeah I know my brother's in jail. I believe there is another part to this which is what I'll call the population enslavement complex. You know originally in the speech it was not just the military industrial complex but Educational military industrial complex. Academic. Academics, thank you I'm going to add banking and education to this Random number theory coincidence who knows here's President Obama in Georgia And i'm going to play his opening jokes first because it's always funny to hear them This was very gay by the way he did a pretty gay joke That is pretty good looking crowd here Thank You! I wasn't directing specifically at you but

2:30:57 But you do look pretty good. What do ya think? I may not be the best gage. The what?! I may not be the best gage? Gage! Ah, okay... Right here- now this is what is happening to our children who are now being encouraged by outfits like Lumina to eventually go to college. We need to enslave you from the get-go before you even go in, and here's the president who is going to run down the incredible list of improvements we've made for your convenience and really listen to this—this is just frightening." And that's why we've acted again and again to make college more affordable

2:31:46 five years ago this month. By the way, it's not more affordable It's just to make your payment plan less obvious. It's hardly more affordable It's not even close to being more affordable. It is still going up." Well, but he is changing the definition of affordable! The definition of affordable is how much you're going to have to pay each month based upon your...the slave job you received. We enacted the largest reforms to the student loan program in history. Yeah, Elizabeth Warren I believe was a part of that let's make sure we remember that. We cut out the big banks that were taking taxpayer dollars and serving as middlemen in the student loan game. And we thought, hey! We can screw these kids, we're the government! And we said well let's just give them money directly to students... ...and enslave them! Like you! So- Give the money? You hear these words? Just GIVE THE MONEY TO THESE STUDENTS?! Hey where is my Obama cash?? So..we saved-

2:32:44 As a result of that change, we saved billions of dollars. We were able to expand tax credits and Pell Grants and put college within reach for millions more middle class and low income students across the country. Then we fought to keep interest rates on student loans low." Wait a minute... What do you mean you've had to fight to keep interest? If you're the government and your handing out free money like you did with banks where you charge 0% But you had to fight with somebody about the 6% you're charging the kids? Did you hear of said fight, John? Yeah I heard him say fight. Do you remember a fight about this? I don't remember a fight Isn't the government supposed to give us a good deal? Well... not that i know of And capped how high those rates can rise Here check this out As a result the typical undergrad is saving $1500

Student Aid Bill of Rights, Debt Enslavement

President Obama introduced a "Student Aid Bill of Rights," which the hosts describe as a propaganda tool using "sacred" language to market debt. The plan allows the government to cap loan payments at 10% of a graduate's income, which is characterized as lifelong financial enslavement. The shift in terminology from "student" to "borrower" is highlighted as a key psychological tactic.

barack obama· bill of rights· student debt· goebbels· propaganda· borrower

2:33:40 We also acted to let millions of graduates cap their loan payments at 10% of their incomes. This is it, this is the one that bothers me! That's enslavement! You come in here and when you come in... Here's what we're gonna do When your done, were going to take ten percent of whatever you earn until you pay it off That's a scary deal man That's that truly is enslavement. And here comes the just atrocious this bothers me as a American so in order to spur more of a conversation to get more folks engaged, okay? We know that's that's coming a conversation we're gonna try something new yo help do this we're gonna we're gonna steal something sacred and make it marketing It's not a fancy new

2:34:28 Write that down John, a simple organizing principle. He doesn't say that stuff without reason A declaration of values. Notice how we're now putting words like Declaration of Values, Declaration of Independence, Declaration of Values... I find that sketchy but then! What i'm calling a student aid bills of rights. This is not okay what is this you can't be using bill of rights in this manner

2:35:14 It's this trickery, making it like you get some kind of great deal on affordable college and it's your right. And it's a declaration! This is stuff Goebbels would be going like, ah, das ist gut! Good stuff! Sehr gut mein Herr Obama! And it says every student deserves access to a quality affordable education Deserves, deserves! Every student should be able to access the resources to pay for college. Like money from the government? Every borrower has a right to an affordable repayment plan And now you're a borrower Notice that you were a student a minute ago Now your'e a borrower Oh boy, yeah Sehr gut Herr Obama Every borrower has the right to quality customer service Reliable information What?! and fair treatment even if they struggle to repay their loans Now I'll tell ya

2:36:02 I would rather be dealing with commercial banks than with the government if i want customer service or fair treatment. Wow! This is beyond me It's a simple set of principles that, If everybody signed on to Republicans Democrats State legislators University presidents Members of Congress it can focus our attention all these different things that we're doing into one simple basic idea, which is make sure that when you're doing the right thing that your society has got your back. And it's looking out for you. They are looking out for ya! Here's what gonna happen... Hey kid, you didn't pay your 10%. Let's go to jail! Wow That's a great catch I'm giving you clip of the day for that

2:36:57 That's very kind of you and it's a good add-on to what I was just talking about well that's why I said it was like random not random number theory so I Gladly gladly share my award with you sir. You're great stuff I welcome being the setup guy for some reason Yeah, what bull crap? Yeah, I know Bullcrap do you have anything else that's the only kids. You know they don't have a clue They're clueless and then with the words that are being used is like lion sinker we got your money I'm gonna give you money first day goes from the giving you money to you being a borrower borrow

2:37:35 Somehow a student in between. With great customer service? Yeah, it's going to be the same guy who sat next to you in lecture hall who will be giving you the customer service for your loan borrower. Hey borrower! 10% Wow yeah are we done with that well not just gonna continue just the scam angle just a little bit more I want to play this clip... I really have to get something to drink so Okay, we'll play this clip. This is a little clip because it's a good length of clip you can get some to drink This is about drug prices going up and went up again every year they're going out We know it's a scam that has to do with the insurance companies and the rest of it But there's one little tidbit in here from some new drug and what it costs It is a gem

Rising Drug Prices, Hepatitis C Treatment Costs

Prescription drug spending in the U.S. rose 13% last year, driven by "specialty drugs" like the Hepatitis C treatment Sovaldi, which costs $80,000 for 12 weeks. The hosts argue that Obamacare has removed price sensitivity by shifting costs to insurance companies, allowing drug manufacturers to gouge the system. This "rigged" system ensures that high prices are funneled directly from insurers to pharmaceutical coffers.

This is a little clip because it's a good length of clip you can get some to drink This is about drug prices going up and went up again every year they're going out We know it's a scam that has to do with the insurance companies and the rest of it But there's one little tidbit in here from some new drug and what it costs It is a gem

2:38:22 Okay, well I'll be listening while i get the drink. I think I can hear it You've no doubt heard before drug prices are rising today a new report from Express Scripts confirms that overall spending on prescriptions in the United States up 13% last year That is the most since 2003 Meg Turrell now on what's behind the rise in drug prices and what's being done about it How fast are drug prices rising? Pharmacy benefits manager Express Scripts says the increases are setting records. Express Scripts negotiates drug prices on behalf of insurers it says the gains were driven by a 31% increase in the cost of so-called specialty drugs like those for rheumatoid arthritis, cancer multiple sclerosis and especially hepatitis C

2:39:10 It's just not sustainable pricing. And so we have to do something to both bring the products in the marketplace, but also make it affordable for patients." The drug price wars came to a head last year over Gilead Sciences' revolutionary new pills for hepatitis C. Its Sovaldi and Harvoni cost upwards of $80,000 dollars for 12 weeks of treatment. Meanwhile, there's this report purports to show what's behind and what's being done. What's behind the drug price increase? It was being done. They never mentioned what's behind it except they hint at it which is the drug companies just decide to raise the prices because they can't. Yeah if you got hepatitis C You have to take this drug. You have no other choice There's another solution and in today's world

2:40:01 which includes gouging as part of the culture ever since they took the Ursa reader laws and threw them away. It used to be you couldn't charge so much money for interest on a credit card or anything else for that matter because it was against the law, and that's when the loan sharks came around again. They broke the law by charging too much interest. That was their real law breaking that they were doing but now that's all gone there is no more loan shark. You just go into the payday place or some local little operation and you can get as much money as you want paying a huge interest rate because they can get away with it, because nobody cares. And these drugs are just jack up the price... What can we get for this drug? I don't know. Remember about $80,000. John remember on the last show you were talking about how the domain registrars are being hounded by that what was the name of the outfit and the company that is saying hey, you know this uh you can't do this if this is in Canada we got to get rid of it because everyone's has

2:40:57 You know, the Canadian online pharmacies have cheap...very much cheaper drugs and so they're going after the domain names and trying to bring them down. And... Yeah it's all part of the same scam. But by the way they had this one guy out from Regeneron who was a CEO... Hold on one second! So I just want you do a question from the chat room. It is not a bad question what nonsense if they can raise the price why didn't they rise them before Opera Dinar? Well, I don't know. It's like is that your no agenda thinking cap you have on? That's a crazy question because it's like...

2:41:35 Perhaps you didn't know that you could do, or the government had some...there was some oversight. Or maybe there's some regulations, or there was a lot of different things in play. Obamacare wasn't in play and then the whole country hasn't been taken over by insurance which Obamacare is all about insurance it's not about anything else. This entire scam has not been completely before like 10 years ago this scam wasn't in place for this to work Now it is everything in place. Yes, that's an insurance company of you everything goes through insurance now So you're not really paying anything 10 years from now, you would have probably had to pick up a huge part of that $80,000. I'm gonna die! I don't care! But I can't afford it." Now you don't pay anything. You pay a co-pay of $1,000 that say, well, I get $80,000 worth of pills for $1000. Meanwhile the $80,000 paid by the insurance company goes straight into the coffers at the drug companies. This whole thing is rigged.

CHAPTER 43 / 50 Discussion

Single Payer Debate, Producer Credits

The hosts briefly touch on the "single payer" healthcare debate before transitioning to a long list of producer credits and donations. They acknowledge contributors from Northern Ireland, Canada, and various U.S. states. The segment reinforces the show's reliance on listener support to maintain its independent analysis.

CHAPTER 46 / 50 Discussion

Apple Watch Launch, Wearable Technology Risks

Tim Cook's presentation of the Apple Watch is met with skepticism, with the hosts calling the device a "dog." While discussing the future of wearables, they cite a report from a UC Berkeley professor warning that devices emitting microwave radiation close to the body could cause "electro smog" and tumors. The lack of mainstream reporting on these health risks is attributed to the influence of big tech advertisers.

apple watch· tim cook· haptic feedback· intel· microwave radiation· tumors

2:53:46 Oh, we have so much to talk about on Sunday. We have to talk about GigaOM on Sunday. I think this is important Why? Because it's tech press meltdowns you're gonna see stuff melting down! I think the money is running out on venture-backed news organizations. Well yeah they think they've peaked Peaked... all right And, oh. Well yeah I do have one tech news clip. It's funny you mention that. I was just about to say where is the Tech Grouch?

2:54:24 Now, open the cage. My phone's my phone! The way I see it the only good phones a landline and the phone should be made out of Bakelite. There you go everybody, time for tech news here on No Agenda Show. I have the-my clip of the day is this one which is...I think that this is the peak Apple has got to peek out with this with this particular clip and Tim Cook telling it like it is about the new iWa-or the new Apple Watch With the built-in speaker and microphone you can receive calls on your watch I've been wanting to do this since i was five years old It's not clip for the day because, I laughed the first time heard it when? When i when i watched the whole thing oh man what a dog What a dog hold on what a dog is a dog

2:55:19 What's a dog? This whole watch thing is a dog. It is! You know the only thing that's cool, when I saw this...I'm really trying like- I want to find something to like in this watch and yeah it's not going to be you know measuring my b- I don't have a ban for measuring stuff about my health or tracking my steps right now. I'm not interested in that but then there's haptic feedback where you can tap and then your friend feels this tap. I'm like yeah Re-enter Morse code is perfect. Well, Morse code could make it come back in any moment But there's no I mean I think that the future if you want to have a wearable that I would actually be interested in Something that just vibrates on my wrist in certain ways That's all has to do and it's not a watch It's just a band or something or whatever You know, it's just something that vibrates based upon someone else doing something there I think there's something interesting There doesn't have to be connected to your phone or any of that

2:56:11 I don't know, maybe just me. Well then the Canada counter story is this one which i think it's worth listening to and this is the tumors tech news Hmm, okay. This is interesting wearable technology grows in importance with each and every new technology Whether it's wildly successful like the shirt or pants pocket iPhone Or a bit too early for its time like Google Glass undergoing a serious reworking Tech giant Intel is pushing it as far as the imagination will allow Wearables are a major thrust of consumer electronics makers.

2:57:00 and I wear them every day just to listen to music. A lot of this stuff is going to be more and more hands-free, it's gonna be a lot easier for the average person like you or me to use but yeah i'm really excited about what's to come Coming soon solar powered clothing to keep all your wearables fully charged but there may be a heavy cost. Exposed to what some people are calling electro smog Professor Joel Moskowitz of UC Berkeley's School of Public Health says the devices emit differing amounts of microwave radiation that in their totality may cause some users to get everything from electromagnetic sensitivity, to tumors. Putting a transmitter on your body... A transmitter that emits microwave radiation is potentially harmful. Microwave he says. Tumors!

Internet of Things, Smart Refrigerator Spying

Visa and a consortium of banks are reportedly developing technology to place ads on smart refrigerators and monitor their usage. The data collected would be used by banks to determine a consumer's creditworthiness based on their eating and shopping habits. The hosts describe this as a move to keep the public "stupefied" while increasing corporate surveillance.

internet of things· visa· refrigerator· advertising· spying· banking

2:57:52 That's pretty good. Tumors? Yeah, tumors. Once they make this connection by the way of having radio to your head constantly and brain cancer on that side of the immune system... Well I think that connection has been made it just is not reported widely because you know these are big advertisers I'm gonna piss on Sam's lunch. Very few people would talk about this if there is advertising involved. But, I actually saw some in- some advertising stuff that is what you've always said we talked about the internet of things bull crap and that includes your finally our refrigerator going to be connected and yeah so we have two stories one from Visa who say yeah you can pay for stuff and get ads which is what you've always asserted

2:58:39 You get ads on your refrigerator and Visa is the company that's going to bring it to you. And then a consortium of banks is saying, well we're very interested in having the refrigerator communicate back to us how it's being used so we can determine if you know...if you're good person to lend money too. I mean, and if our investment...and if our investment is being treated properly Yeah, this is all about spying and selling us crap and keeping us stupefied in a daze of smog of crap. Information overload... There'll be ads that will do the movie here's the big money made we can quit this job right now We go make some money adds on the Apple watch No not that anybody's gonna buy an Apple watch but they'll buy the company that puts ads on it

2:59:36 Yeah, you know a little advertising company. They turn over quickly give one year 12 months for people figure out that these watches are You take at least that long before the final verdict comes in by the way the one thing that I think is negative I'm gonna write about this and somewhere is Kevin Rose wrote in some publication that That he considers the end their headline was reflected this that the gold Apple watch is a douchebag alert And then this guy became a semi meme on Twitter Amongst women. Oh, yeah, that'd be do anyone has that watch? Oh, that's not good. Oh, that's not good This is not good. This is all bad although I've heard real watch collectors You don't think twice about dropping 10 grand on a watch now if they really want to have it

Siri Security Holes, Oracle America's Cup Seizure

A listener reports that the "Hey Siri" feature on iPhones is frequently triggered by the word "Syria" during the podcast. This is used to illustrate the security vulnerabilities of voice-activated systems. Additionally, a catamaran belonging to the Oracle America's Cup team was reportedly seized by federal marshals following a lawsuit by a sailor.

siri· syria· security· oracle· americas cup· catamaran

3:00:29 And it's not because of the money, actually they think oh that's cool I want to have that. They like it. Well that's funny because Rose considers himself a watch collector and he says no to that. Why are we talking about him? I'm just saying that tech news, it's tech news. Earlier, I rig rolled all iPhone and iPad users. But I'm really getting into this whole idea of the incredible security hole as voice activated systems become more prevalent so of course I don't want anyone to feel left out okay Google Play never going to give you up I got an email from Cade Clunan, one of our listeners producers. Short time listener to the No Agenda show here. The Hey Siri feature on my phone... Sorry activated again ...on my iPhone has been activated twice by audio from the best podcast in the universe! In both instances the trigger word was Syria." How about that? Hey Syria! Yeah she went on yeah hold on that's fantastic all right before you close Tech News Out...

3:01:35 Hey Syria, hey Syria you're gonna get nuked Oracle tech news just I think it's tech news. Yeah You are cranking it out today my friend is great a lawsuit filed by a sailor with the America's Cup champion team Oracle has led to the seizure of one of the teams catamarans federal marshals say they seized haul Cheap bastards.

MH370 Disappearance, Putin Conspiracy Theory

A New Yorker article by Jeff Wise proposes a theory that flight MH370 was hijacked by Russian special ops and flown to Kazakhstan. The hosts note that while many technical theories are labeled "crackpot," this one is treated as acceptable by the media because it blames Vladimir Putin. They mock the idea that Russian agents accessed the plane's computers through a "locked hatch."

mh370· jeff wise· vladimir putin· kazakhstan· russia· aviation

3:02:20 Exactly seems like tech news All right, I got one wrap-up clip just one one one one. I think that should take us out Do you have a last one or do? I have a topper okay? Should I do mine then your top mind you just topping me all day hit it alright. We'll have to set it up This is, in the New Yorker...we may have discussed this but in the New Yorker there was an article which was a theory about MH370. The aircraft that has still not been found but disappeared and you know I'm often called a conspiracy theorist lots of people are called conspiracy theories particularly when you just come out with something that is technically feasible but kind of crackpot

3:03:10 Just crackpot. So I could say, even if I came up with a theory about what happened and we've discussed this about the radar spoofing etc., you know, I get emails like, you're nut job, you're crackpot just because it's technically possible doesn't mean... You get the idea? But this guy Jeff Wise who wrote this article If you just, no matter what your conspiracy theory is as long as it ends up with Putin did it. It's okay apparently! Locked hatch in the passenger compartment Up at the front of the first class cabin You can get in there access the computers that control the plane Control the communications and indeed that generate the signals That the mathematicians use to determine if a plane went south So at least in principle its possible to alter

3:03:57 these signals. So do you believe there was a hack by Russian special ops and Putin was behind it? Well what's interesting is that if you assume that part of the data was spoofed, part of it can't be spoofed. It's just too difficult and with that remaining data you can still derive a flight path and that flight path indicates that it went north Across India along the border between China and Pakistan and you wind up in Kazakhstan As long as you blame it on Putin then everything's okay. The Russian had the Russian special ops stupidest thing I've heard for a while Yeah, but yeah, it's okay. Yes, okay as long as long as you blame Putin

CHAPTER 50 / 50 Discussion

CIA Apple Infiltration, Show Sign-off

The show concludes with a report on the CIA's decade-long attempt to infiltrate Apple's "Xcode" development tools, based on documents from Edward Snowden. The hosts point out a chronological error in the reporting, noting that the CIA supposedly started the project in 2006, a year before the iPhone was released. The episode ends with the "Shapeshifting Jew" jingle and a sign-off from Rotterdam and Silicon Valley.

cia· apple· xcode· edward snowden· glenn greenwald· shapeshifting jews

3:04:37 Okay, now I have this good. I was gonna put in tech news by the side take it out We're finished that won't tell you anything else to say but this is the report about the CIA's It's more of a security story Break it trying to break into Apple. I don't know what the point of this is You're going to think about it just something Something amiss with the story why they're even telling us and of course them The simple fact is that this story has a big hole in it. But let's play the bogus, it says bogus, break into Apple story. And there was word today that the Central Intelligence Agency spent nearly a decade trying to crack the coding in Apple iPhones and iPads. The Intercept, an investigative news site, cites documents obtained by Edward Snowden at the National Security Agency. They indicate that the CIA tried to break into Apple products as early as 2006. It is unclear if the agency was ever successful in its attempts

3:05:32 Okay, two things. One 2006 is not a decade to the Apple iPhone came out in 2007 How are they trying to crack into it in 2006? Are they time travelers Of all the things I thought you were gonna ask yes of course at time travelers We have to read let's read this I believe I do have an answer What I understand, actually have a 20 second clip from CNBC about it. What I understand is they were trying to infiltrate into Xcode which is the development tool that you use for all kinds of development for the Mac OS 10 but also now iOS

3:06:19 here. That, uh... Is that what Glenn Greenwald said? I have not read it. But apparently- You know these intercept pieces man you start and go like oh i'll read this intercept This is why you have journalists no editors It's too long! Like this damn show! IT'S TOO LONG! Yeah so the show is over! It's too long I tell ya! Alrighty then. Okay

3:07:11 We have lots of, lots of stuff for our Sunday show for sure. Yeah we're only going 245 on Sunday?
