Happy Countries

00:00 And I've got a prediction for the Red Book you watch. Injecting your inoculation of Gizmo information and broadcasting live from the capital, The Grown Star State here in FEMA Region 6 where it's still South by Southwest. In the morning everybody I'm Adam Curry And from Northern Silicon Valley where apparently is going to be a scorcher today Wow! John C. Dvorak Really now scorcher yeah, what's a scorcher in northern Silicon I have it kind of a temperature gauge. It was gonna be hot but I think it's gonna be like 80 crazy Scorch for the midwinter We had 91 yesterday Yeah, hers pretty hot no and that's not it wasn't hot is just beautiful

00:54 90, well you're finally getting climatized. It's not so much... 91! It's beautiful out. It's a dry heat John it's a dry heat. It's a dry heat I bet it is. It's very easy to handle. Oh man how are ya? I'm good I went to-I finally went to go see the Warriors play a basketball game this year oh okay So they set another record yeah 50th home win in a row they don't lose at home so you go you're never gonna get disappointed But I have to say, everyone talks about your namesake, Stephen Curry. Yeah! Is it Stephan or Steven? Stephan. Stephan... okay. Yeah number 30. He's number 30. Or Steph yes, or Steph. Or just Curry

01:36 Curry yeah, but then they can be confusing him with you I have to say and I've said this to my wife and the other Piazza one who wants to listen as Good as that guy is on television. Yeah if you see him in person it's like ridiculous It's unbelievable Why is that? That's all I've got to say well Is he tiny no he's not tiny six three which is kind of tiny but he is so fast And on a shot, he takes it through and he shoots these three pointers from everywhere. 90% of them go in especially if he's under distress. Not 90%, he's shooting at about 50% three-pointers. It brings the house down!

02:23 He'll be in the corner and some guy's just about to kill him, you know punch him in the gut. He's trying to shoot And it goes in and they audience which is very interesting as a it's gotta be about 1 3 Hispanic Mm-hmm, and they're all they all see the game It's kind of like soccer so every time there's a score. It's like one guy was sitting next to his Is a Hispanic guy with this kid his little girl and he would yell goal Okay, well it's culture The audience is Outrageous I can see what or where he's like to play there if anything is just a little bit off and they score Or the other team screws up. They go nuts they literally go nuts It's a fantastic experience. I'm glad you got out of the house that too expensive Happy you got out of the house very good my wife she should go more

03:22 I, while you were at the ballgame. I was reading the executive order no one heard about unless you did. Uh, that's your beat? Yeah it is my beat. I just await the surprises. My beat yes The president came out with a rather harsh executive order blocking property of the government of North Korea and the Workers Party of Korea and prohibiting certain transactions with respect to North Korea I don't have to read the whole thing. It's it reads... Why? Why don't i have to read it no why oh well this is rationale we would be interested in that you always have to have a rationale, I will read that by authority vested in me the national the North Korea sanctioned policy and

04:07 Here we go. I, Barack Obama president United States of America find that the government of North Korea is continuing pursuits Of its nuclear and missile programs as evidenced most recently by its February 7 2016 launch using ballistic missile technology And this January 6, 2016 nuclear test in violation of its obligations pursuant to the numerous UNSCRs and in contravention of it's commitments under the September 9th... But to address these actions and take additional steps... They're dangerous! That's the idea. North Korea obviously presents a clear and present danger to the United States. So we've put in place sanctions very, very similar to what Iran had. All money is blocked, anything that's in any possession here is blocked... The bank accounts are frozen it's the full Monty. How is that not an act of war? Okay you're with my thinking here

05:07 And I didn't realize why they did this until... ...I did what we always do here at the Best Podcast in the Universe. When we have a question about something that we don't know about, what do we do? We add the word oil to it! By pipeline! Pipeline! No, I shot off an email to Uncle Don Oh, there's the... oh yes. There's also that method. Yeah. Uncle Don formerly ambassador of... Well let me just get I was gonna guess the reason for this was because the kid who stole a no smoking sign and got 15 years in hard labor? Well that's okay let me so i'll uh let me read the correspondence it was short but I love uncle don because he took like a day and a half to get back to me so he's always thinking about what he's writing It's what the agency guys do they don't just write willy-nilly

05:55 So I said, hey Don timing of this executive order is interesting. Of course will go largely unreported also looks pretty severe in scope always interested in your thoughts on the matter but here we go Adam, it sounds severe and limiting but I'm not sure it is. People are trying to figure out what they can and cannot do with North Koreans in terms of talking. I've been invited to a March 22nd lunch by the National Committee on North Korea and intend to go unless it's called off I will report back." Abnewed? How about that huh? Where is the uh meeting? I think it's DC national committee on north korea. Huh. Think it is

06:33 The new factor is needed. Kim Jong-un needs better advice than he's receiving from people within North Korea I've urged them to release the American college student they have sentenced to 15 years of hard labor They have sent me and others a proposal for development of a peace regime for the region So they're doing two things at once, threatening and offering to talk And here it comes Tensions are always high when we are engaged in massive training exercises Ugh! Forgot all about that We have 30,000 troops doing a training exercise on their border. Tensions are always high when we are engaged in massive training exercises and this is a tense difficult time where mistakes can escalate." You know you wonder why these guys are always gearing themselves up thinking that were going to attack them every minute? We do this sort of thing...we do the executive order then we do a bunch of training nearby it looks if I was an outsider that was somewhat isolated and i just saw all this going on I would be very- This is like people misinterpreting everything

07:31 You don't get enough information in the first place because you can't take a chance on the public finding anything out. And so, you get freaky! Yes. This closing line... So not as bad as it reads I guess? I'm sure its' just bad as it reads to the North Koreans Well, you know Don is on his I mean, I won't say he's on their side but he wants nothing but peace. Yes Yeah, he's definitely yeah He is on there so he understands he understands Their culture I was reading something about some other capture sometime ago it wasn an analyst that was going on about it and said the North Koreans do this and they like the college kid that they just arrested for stealing those smoking sign or whatever it was and

08:27 The guy's analysis was the North Koreans do this on a consistent basis so they can have people come to visit them. Well, that is the big problem here in this executive order and damn I should've asked Don. No more...you cannot invest you can't do anything. So if your thing...you cannot even...the way I read it and I read the whole thing You cannot even have a tour operator going in and operating in North Korea. That, from the United States that would be forbidden so that stops their main driver as you've pointed out many years ago of tourism. Yeah they'd been trying to do the tour forever. Well they're doing it poorly I think the North Korean Tourism Bureau and I'm sure there is one has got their heads up their ass

09:17 Think I would try to contact them. Well, would you like me to get your a real contact? Yeah Sure, I can get the I can get the person was really in charge. Yeah well since I couldn't get into country and then I'm sure we can go that's it I Just want to see the big show. I mean that's what I really no kidding No kidding just staying overseas for a moment an interesting move tactical move by Vladimir Putin regarding Syria and I have a clip that describes. I'll say I have a setup clip which is probably Vapid compared to yours, but it's it's a nice piece of propaganda from your own news So I figured I'd play that well mines as short clip from News hour and I think it pretty much wraps it up so what are we doing?

10:08 I think we should play your clip than mine in a one-two punch. Okay, and what is the name of your clip so i can really punch it? Russia leaves Syria Makes total sense okay here we go Welcome home as heroes and decorated by their military chiefs Fighter jets are landing at an Air Force base near Voronezh in the southwest of Russia. After the Kremlin made the surprise decision to partially withdraw its forces from Syria. I gotta say, they really need to... Putin needs up his game on the parade and militaristic look how great we are this was pathetic

10:44 It was really pathetic looking on the tarmac. They're trying to do a whole... Where did you get that clip? Euronews Moscow says the withdrawal is possible as Russia has achieved its goals with the start of peace talks in Geneva However, Russia will continue to maintain a military presence in Syria with bases and Latakia and Tartus The Russian army also says its S-400 surface to air missile defense system in Syria will remain in place. This is an order to effectively provide security, including from the air says this senior official. The most modern defense systems are needed he says. The Russian Air Force also says it's jets will continue to strike ISIL targets and Syria and what it calls other terrorist groups

11:34 Very nice. There we go. So, to me it sounds like nothing really changed? Well that's a lot different than the clip that NewsHour played. In a surprise announcement Russian President Vladimir Putin— Oh sorry, is this Democracy Now!, my mistake! No problem, I'll start over again… In a surprise announcement Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Russia will withdraw the bulk of its forces from Syria. Putin made the announcement Monday saying the Russian campaign in Syria had largely fulfilled its objective I believe that the goal set out to the Ministry of Defense and the armed forces has in large part been fulfilled, and that's why I ordered the Ministry of Defense as of tomorrow to start the pullout of the main part of our military grouping from the Syrian Arab Republic.

12:20 Alright, now I have two analysts that we should listen to before we do our own deconstruction. The first one kind of typical the second one is spot on. One Iran based analyst maintains removing Assad would result in chaos and pose a danger to the entire region If the Geneva talks fail he says Russia will go back to Syria If a ceasefire is not maintained and is violated by different political groups in Syria, then military intervention would be Syria's only option. And Russia will definitely play a key role in that option." Another Gulf-based analyst says Moscow's ability to make Assad negotiate as part of the Kremlin wanting to appear as a Middle East peace negotiator. I think this move is significant for the future of Assad

13:10 his associates because it makes them part of the negotiating process. It's as if Big Brother has taken Little Brother by the ears and has told him what to do." I agree with that! To me, Putin played a hard hand and said okay we're in charge now we're gonna back off we got everything still there what you want to do? Let's talk That's a possibility. I'm thinking differently, okay? This came is so abruptly that I'm I mean very abruptly yeah And we know one thing the Russians went in there pretty much to bolster They have a you know their big base there So they went in and blew up a bunch of stuff with her. I think this idea was just to protect their own

14:00 military base, the port. Well that's what initially sure but now I hear rumblings that even the Russians are talking about well maybe we can find another guy instead of Assad. That's all part of the...I think that we made that happen Well, it's been I think we put a carrot in front of Russia said look at you know If you play ball with this We got to get this this situation resolved and just get the hell out of here or at least make it look like he did because that's where The American reports need to look and will maybe back off a little bit on these Sanctions which are falling apart. The sanctions against russia there that are the european people are just bitching about? The germans in particular And we have to back off on those things eventually and I think this I betcha This is

14:42 backroom deal as a quid pro quo that had something to do with us. Well, there's something else I found... I don't see any reason why the other thesis that you know they went in there to slap Osada around it was they could do that anytime they want. There is too abrupt for my taste Okay, there is an meeting set for April which will be OPEC and Russia Iran will not be included And its going to take place in Doha And from what I understand, the idea is and Russia may already be doing this to freeze oil output. Now we know the Saudis have been burned in the past by doing things with their oil particularly just going all the way down zero and then they got screwed

15:29 But it would make a lot of sense for Putin to say, hey wait a minute. You know let's back off for a second We need our oil prices up and now maybe that we're working with Saudi Arabia certainly this Qatar meeting on April 17th I'm thinking that its they're trying to fix production so the price goes up Well, we have the one problem which is and it's a 36 for anyone who wants to know what the price That's the price as were doing this show. What's the price $36? Yeah, so it was a reasonable price It went up a bit and we've seen gas prices here in Texas go up 10 20 cents I mean still 170 175 but yeah 175 you're complaining I'm playing

16:20 The problem is that it's already been discussed with Iran. A number of people have taken a run at Iran because Iran has a huge amount of oil that they can pump and the Iranians have said that they're not going to Be involved with any of this stuff the way they and I think the way they see we talked about this on the DHM plug show The way, they see things is that? This is a this little moment in history where everybody's getting along with each other And we're gonna have to try to normalize a few things with them and the United States into Iran You know when they still hate us from the 50s. Mm-hmm when we overturn their democratically elected government turned into a run in the Shah

17:08 And they said no, it's been discussed with them. They said no you can do oh yeah sure go ahead and stop production jack up the price we don't care were going to pump as much as we can and they're gonna keep the inventories high this is not gonna fail unless they get the Iranians on board that way they see it this is just an opportunity to get rid of some other oil before they figure out everyone's gonna shut him down sanction them again. They figured this is a short-term phenomenon, they only have the little time to pump as much oil as they can and $36 bucks is fine with them. They were getting nothing! Still doesn't explain Russia's pullout or so called pull out That's what I'm saying that doesn't explain Russia's pull out. I am thinking Russia's pull out is a backroom deal done with United States

18:03 And what would that... Well, okay. So- Get Russia to say look we're gonna ease the sanctions on you guys or we'll let things go just if you'd just give us a break here on this Syrian thing. Okay and that's why I'm reading rumblings of the Russians saying yeah we're okay if we find another guy for Assad. That is, I think that's always been the bottom line is who will replace him? What kind of guy will it be? Nick Maybe that new Supreme Court justice that Obama nominated would be good. She would actually do something, get to work! Anyway that's what I'm thinking because I just don't see any of all these other analysts and what they've said just doesn't... Again it's this abruptness when I see something like that. Yeah okay bye! That'll be in my follow-up email to Don today

18:57 Because I haven't replied to him yet about the North Korea. So, i'll reply and i'll slip in a little question if you want to transition to discussing this this supreme court character Oh not really but okay? I'm good. You want to say something about it? I have something to say i've no clips But I do have something to say I do have a clip all right what's he got supreme court and the biden rule You said before that he belongs on the court. Why not at least consider him now? I didn't say that he belongs on the Supreme Court, I said he belonged on the DC Circuit Court. Why not have hearings and consider what has changed since then? I think the Supreme Court's been politicized enough... But late today signs the Republican wall

19:34 may be cracking. Mitch McConnell, who won't meet with Garland taking his phone call wishing him well and now other Republicans say they will talk to him by phone including the powerful committee chairman what are you looking to hear from him? I don't know he has to talk to me And Mary Bruce with us live tonight from Washington getting answers from Republicans. But Republicans have an argument too, Mary pointing to something Vice President Joe Biden once said about Supreme Court vacancies during an election year? Yes David they call it the Biden rule referring to the vice president's comments back in 1992 saying that Supreme Court vacancies should be treated differently during an election year but today Biden tweeting he only followed one rule when he was in the Senate that every Supreme Court nominee get a hearing and a vote period David

20:19 Okay, so let's let me get this straight and we have a lot of Republicans who listen to the show Let me get this straight. So the Republicans are now adopting the rules of Joe Biden as their standard? Also, the rule of Harry Reid who determined several years ago when they had how the rules of the House work that only one person can bring something to the floor that was a Democrat rule and now it's working against them Well, all this is as a publicity or as an image. I think this makes the Republicans look like idiots especially if they have a guy that's probably okay to be a Supreme Court justice and might be a better choice than whatever Hillary is going to pick? Well, I have a question for you how do you find this guy to be okay? I have very specific reason why he's not okay and should be nowhere near the Supreme Court of the United States. Well then if you have us...I can change my mind

21:19 He was the lead on Oklahoma City. And, um... Wait a minute there was another one he was involved in but that I mean he is a Clinton insider! He worked for the Clinton White House inside and he was really the buffer keeping all this bull crap away you know trying to have a little uh... Well he's also a prosecutor which is always sketchy okay? Okay, he's no good That doesn't mean they shouldn't have a hearing and just say you're no good kicking. Oh, I agree. I agree I don't know why they're not doing that. That's dumb. They're dumb. I think It is dumb but it's also possible And I know this is this is a stretch maybe there's some other rule that they are worried about now. I'm gonna say It's possible that there's just lazy these hearings are pain in the ass hmm

22:13 Let's go, let's get out of this year and maybe not get reelected. Those hearings are a pain in the ass they go on forever and maybe the real reason is can we not do these hearings at least until you know for awhile it isn't terrible well lazy probably they would like to deflect all negativity of the Republican Party towards Donald Trump because everything is negative make it his Yeah, they're definitely focused on Trump. That's what it seems to be. And here is the thing about them being focused... The Republicans I don't know what is wrong with these people but they

22:54 Now they're all talking, there's clips and there was a lot of discussions last week about well if Trump gets the nomination we're gonna go... I'm not going to vote for him. And a bunch of people have come out and said that. I'm not gonna vote for him or would you vote for Hillary? I might have to so we have a situation where Republicans instead of voting for Donald Trump are gonna vote for Hillary after they went through this huge rigmarole with Rance Priebus and the rest to get Trump to agree Vote for whoever, support. Support whoever yeah to support the Republican and they made a big stink about it but now they're not gonna do it? You put something in the newsletter and I'm just looking at your list real quick and of course I have no idea what your clips are you don't know what mine are as per our agreement working on nine years. Yeah so our agreement

23:42 Not an agreement. It's just something that happens to be the easiest way to do the show no the agreement is I don't care Let's find out when you're a man so you don't see you don't spy on my clips Oh, yeah because I'm such a horrible man yes You pointed towards an article and there was some video slash audio to go with the article from one of the GOP insiders this guy is That's his name again, Hurley or something. He is a... I looked him up he is a banker. Was it Moe or Curly? I don't remember. Exactly! Okay, I understand that these are the rules and there are all kinds of crazy arcane rules that could be voted on between now and then but Curly let me ask you if Donald Trump heads into the nomination maybe short at 1237 required

24:25 If you give it to someone who has a much lesser percentage of the voters who have actually turned out for these primaries, don't you worry that you are going to just send chaos and anger into the Trump supporters and into people who feel like their votes don't matter? No I don't think that's the case. Once its... You know if would just be understood. Now wait for it! It gets even better. We have a problem with the media unfortunately. We have a problem with the media. With the media, unfortunately the cable networks are trying to determine... I don't think this is a problem with the media. I've heard from a lot of voters who say if they feel like their votes got stolen that they would be very unhappy and very angry. I think you're looking at a different situation. I realize these have been the rules but the last time these rules were put in place was 1976 it's been a long time since then Yeah, they're still there yeah that's a problem Listen listen to what he says He just comes out and says it John

25:19 Yeah, that's a problem. The media has created the perception that the voters will decide the nomination and that's the conflict here. We feel like we live in a democratic society what you're telling me is it's not a democratic society and your votes don't necessarily matter because its a democratic representation correct? No thats not what I'm trying to tell you What im trying to say is there are just one of the political parties There are many political parties but political parties choose their nominee Not the general public contrary to popular belief. Then why are they holding the primaries? That's a very good question That's a very good question. Why do we even go through that rigmarole? That's great, and it's really people don't understand that this is one big show. It doesn't...it's the same for the Democrats. Yeah. This is not- As we'll go to a Warriors game. You know this is a club. The little club is called the Republican Party you have another club over there called the Democrats and they have uh..you know they just do this little show because

26:22 run, control roll whatever the media ad spending and buys they determine what goes on. It's just it's all marketing it's not even real. Well they definitely screwed up with this one yeah they did and I think yep they don't want Trump now this of course when we've stood when this whole thing began I will not to pat myself on the back said this would happen No matter what Trump does, they're going to try to screw him. And I think they're going to...I'm not changing my approach. I think he's still gonna get screwed out of the nomination and they are going down in flames A lot of this reminds me of 2000 The Netherlands where there was a populist guy running for leadership role in the country He was outspoken loudmouthed Now he had some very big differences with Trump He was bald He drank Smoked cigars He was gay

27:21 And two weeks before the election he was assassinated by a crazy animal rights activist. I'm very concerned about that, yes very very concerned about that. Well and they're also doing you know before you want to do something as radical like that Which is not beyond the possibility. It's not hard to get someone of these kids who are jacked on SSRIs, look we can get kids to go be ISIS apparently all it would take is a little bit social media let me think hmm yeah there's lot of social media about Trump being Hitler. Facebangers. And the way you do it if your going set this up first you have that guy rushing the stage Yes I actually have a clip of his

28:10 You know what this is called? It's something else before you get into that. This reminded me of Two Minutes Hate, do you remember Two Minutes Hate? No! This is from the book 1984 George Orwell and every day there were two days in which the Society Of Oceania had to turn on their telescreens and watch the film depicting the party's enemies and it was just you know... Everyone went completely nuts and crazy. I think that's what is happening, except Trump is the two minutes of hate that is being shown and everyone supposed to hate against. Maybe there was something like that going on but when they charged this podium then they had to cancel the thing... I had this guy... The event in Chicago Just listen to mind control on this John This is a kid who turns out he is acting major

29:02 I hate it when that happens. Theater major. Geez, we haven't heard that before! How annoying now that he's an actor? Oh well... And CNN went down to talk with him and you know Martin O'Malley no what's his name uh Dan or something one of these guys who's never allowed into the studio at CNN He also has to go to these godforsaken places so he's out there talking to this kid. I was thinking that Donald Trump is a bully and he is nothing more than that He is somebody who is just saying a lot of bold things. He's making bold claims, but I can see right through that and I can see that he's truly just a coward

29:42 And he's opportunistic. And he is willing to destroy this country for power, for himself." Alright well that's your motivation but what were you thinking at that moment? Why did you do what you did?" I was thinking that i could get up on stage and take his podium away from him and take his mic away from him, and send a message to all people out in the country who wouldn't consider themselves racist. Who wouldn't consider themselves approving of what type of violence Donald Trump is allowing at his rallies and send them a message that we can be strong, we can find our strength and we can stand up against Donald Trump. And against this new wave he's ushering in of truly just violent white supremacist ideas. Were you if you admitted to that stage were you going to attack him? No not at all there would have been no point. I wasn't expecting there to be as much Secret Service as there was there that day from what i had sort of seen

30:42 hadn't been that much or hadn't been that much in a contained area, so I thought my chances of getting up on stage and getting to the podium would have been better. But again it was more important for me to show that there are people out there who aren't afraid of Donald Trump He says scary things. He lets his people do scary things, he's threatened Mexico Islam you name it and yet I'm unafraid And if i can be unafraid enough to go take this podium away from him then we all can be afraid enough not let this man walk into the White House The programming is severe John Wow That guy By the way that was borderline clip of the day I'll take a border line from ya thank you

31:23 And, you know we've had a total of maybe 10 emails that... I thought a lot about this. We had this conversation on Sunday like oh you're pro-Trump your shields you have an agenda. Why do white people keep saying that? Well i figured it out It's the virus And the virus is... you and I spend all day, all day watching stuff. Original source material a lot of stuff from C-SPAN so we see everything within context but for the past was it now three days? Three and a half days i am watching sound bites

32:04 And Trump speaks very simplistically. That is his downside to the way he speaks, people like simplistic language I believe and he says things very clearly in beautiful staccato type bits you can chop it out and then you can just say whatever you want. Very clippable. He's very clippable and it has worked! It has really worked so if...if..you're coming to our show and you're saying You're not being fair. You're going easy on Donald Trump, you are missing the point of our show and the virus has already set in with you and you need to help yourself." We do- we're not here to provide fair coverage! If you want to see people saying Donald Trump says crazy stuff just turn on the television if you want to hear deconstruction of the media doing this which as far as I can tell is pretty unprecedented this

32:55 election cycle by itself is unprecedented. Barack Obama, the interactive internet president he didn't do shit! Donald Trump has been using social media Twitter that really created his campaign and I think we're seeing this turn now where he's confusing everybody in changing his demeanor changing his tone a bit and he's even ready to admit that he was loudmouthed and brash because he had a fight on his hands But again, what we're doing is deconstructing the media and when you have people calling people Mussolini and Hitler and white supremacists it warrants deconstruction. Does that take up time from saying oh Donald Trump is an idiot? Well maybe in your idea your reality but that's what it is! We're a nation divided by different realities depending on what you've been programmed through the television

33:48 You just see these clips one after another. As witnessed by that guy you just played the clip of? Yes. Who's obviously, this is by the way... This is your... To people out there who are critical like that you're complaining about This is where you end up You end up being that guy. Yes, the deluded maniac that rushes the stage Oh I didn't think there were any Secret Service around I just had to show people and then you have to be a talk about being an egomaniac You're going to go up on the stage grab the mic and tell people and tell them what's what are you kidding me right?

34:30 You're insane. Most of the people that I've gotten notes from, and it's not that many—I've only gotten a couple—but they... They are already in they are borderline that guy. They're gonna they're insane Yes, and it's been jacked up this objectively But also I understand if this is the programming that you're receiving and you love your life your family or community Your country I have nothing against people who are saying holy crap we got to stop this guy but i'm pretty sure That uh they're misguided Trump was on Bill O'Reilly last night. Very long interview, I pulled two clips from it and one I want to play now. And before you play that just to add onto what you just said

35:18 It's so bad to the point that Republicans who were elected to office are on the same insane bandwagon, to the point where they will vote for what is apparently a felon. Insofar as Hillary Clinton is concerned they will vote for her who should be in jail and I'm kind of joking but not all completely Rather than Trump and the reason for that is why because he's a cuz he says bad things about women He doesn't because he's just because he's a white supremacist. I don't know if he is, I doubt it And the rest of this stuff that is all made up by the media Well let me look okay now I'm gonna back into it in reverse Because you brought up that Now there were two and this first time I've seen it There were to anti-Trump ads That I caught In the past 2 days

36:10 airing on television here, and I think it was a CNN national spot which was interesting and expensive. And this is one of the first that i've seen from the pack that's against Donald Trump The first one just to show those sound bites... Now I don't know if you've seen this commercial yet John? Is the one about women? It's women yeah You see the whole thing Probably probably I saw an excerpt so just imagine every woman you hear speaking a black background full-screen black and white Stylized, and here is what they're saying bimbo dog fat pig real quotes from Donald Trump about women A person who is very flat chested it's very hard to be a 10

36:56 I'd look her right in that fat ugly face of hers. Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? She had the height, she had the beauty... she was crazy but these are minor details. I like kids. I mean i won't do anything to take care of them. I'll supply funds and she'll take care of the kids You know it really doesn't matter what they write as long as you've got a young and beautiful piece of **** That must be a pretty picture you drop into your knees There was blood coming out of her eyes blood coming out of her wherever now what's interesting about this particular phrase and this of course is referring to Megyn Kelly which now is Universally accepted as he said she was on her period and therefore crabby when this young girl says this she also editorializes with like a Like a smirk face that it's just okay coming out of her eyes blood coming out of her wherever

37:50 Women, you have to treat them like s***. This is how Donald Trump talks about our mothers, our sisters... Our daughters If you believe America deserves better vote against Donald Trump! Our Principals PAC is responsible for the content of this advertising. Yeah, our Principals PAC so everything taken out of context and very very effective Very effective. There's another one, there is one more. These guys are spending the money. Donald Trump campaign violence. I'd like to punch him in the face and knock the crap out of him. They would be carried out on a stretcher folks!

38:30 pay for the legal fees. Now Trump's campaign manager faces criminal charges for allegedly assaulting a female reporter. Today, Michelle Fields, the reporter for the conservative website Breitbart said earlier this week Trump's campaign manager grabbed me tightly by the arm and yanked me down. Fields showed us the bruise where she says Trump's campaign manager grabbed her They're not telling the truth there are videos, there are pictures There is an eyewitness of Washington Post reporter Another supporter arrested for assault. A Trump supporter is under arrest tonight after punching a protester at a rally. The latest in what some believe is the growing hostile atmosphere at Trump events. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him! Donald Trump's too reckless and dangerous to be president Our Principles Pack is responsible for the content of this advertising Very effective very very good I don't know I think that was counter-effective Well just as an entremont

39:26 Donald Trump had a pretty funny story about these. I'd like to share because it made me laugh. It's been an interesting experience last week Adam Scott won at Trump National Doral, won the big tournament the World Championship of Golf and Adam who is a great guy, guess a lot of you folks saw that but I'm watching, we have television screens all over and we're down at this gorgeous green at Doral and everything's working beautifully. And then a commercial comes on the worst commercial and I'm with these wonderful people from Cadillac and all these top executives. And I'm saying look over there look don't watch it go you know want to watch it? Isn't the grass beautiful? Look! Don't watch! And they came in waves one after another after another

40:09 And it was brutal. And then Adam comes in, is this handsome kid from Australia? One of the greatest golfers in the world made an unbelievable shot on the 18th hole to win the tournament. He's a great champion and we're giving him the award. And just before we break for a commercial will be right back with our great champion from Australia Adams got it here's the commercial I said no. It was two of them. Two of them. Oh, what a day that was. What a disaster! One of the most effective ways of denouncing an attack ad... Now on this same interview Bill O'Reilly brought up something that he disagreed with Trump and this flows into how context is very important I disagree with you vehemently about George Bush the younger lying on purpose to get us into war with Iraq

41:03 As somebody who covered that situation, I talked with Colin Powell. I talked with the CIA director They all said the same thing The New York Times are reporting it on the front page That Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction And indeed told his own generals that he did and the generals disseminated that information So to me all the evidence says President Bush the Younger did not lie Maybe made a mistake Did not lie You want to backtrack on that statement? No, I don't want to backtrack. I didn't say lie. I said he may have lied. Did he really believe there were weapons of mass destruction? I think that when his father went in and actually did something pretty good because he pulled back He didn't get into the trap

41:48 But I know that Saddam Hussein was taunting the father. They, you know the Americans they were not You know they were cowards he was saying all sorts of things because of the fact intelligently they pulled back And I know that you know and you know also that the son So Trump brings up something that just kind of universally agreed to that no it Was a lie But this is brought up by the next guest. I forget the guy's name, you may know who he is when he comes on He's on O'Reilly a lot and he Is now using this what Trump just said to show how Trump lies And then just does it as a bold face lie? I think there's a little more nuance Yeah, I thought you asked a very important question and we saw Donald Trump What's his name

42:39 Bernie's last name is a role ABC correspondents old hat. Bernie Goldberg, Bernie Goldberg, Bernie Goldberg. Yeah. Modus operandi in the answer you said I disagree with you You shouldn't have said... you said this way so that I disagree with you Trump did George Bush didn't lie to get us into a war. He may have made a mistake which he did but he didn't lie Okay, that's a good question it needed to be asked and Donald Trump said I didn't say he lied either I said, maybe he lied. Who knows? He could have lied. No! I heard it. He said they lied They knew there were no weapons of mass destruction and they still went into war Now let's just take what he said and listen to the video that he is talking about...he is correct

43:29 But I think there's nuance. Five days he went back. It was a mistake, it wasn't a mistake. Took him five days before his people told him what to say and he ultimately said it was a mistake The war in Iraq we spent two trillion dollars thousands of lives We don't even have it Iran is taking over Iraq with the second largest oil reserves in the world Obviously it was a mistake so George Bush made a mistake So we can make mistakes but that one was a beauty

44:11 been in Iraq. We have destabilized the Middle East, but so you so I'm going to see it's still think he should be impeached. It's my turn and here is my place do whatever you want? I want to tell you they lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction. There was none and they knew there were none. There were no weapons of mass. Okay. All right. So, it's nuanced. Well not only that but he said they lied. They lied well... Not George Bush did. But in the context of his clip when he said they- He actually said George Bush made a mistake! Right so he said they lied and they did this is but I mean otherwise you wouldn't have that yellow cake incident You wouldn't have had the Valerie Plame outing She got outed because of this situation

44:58 As a CIA operative and this is so similar to things that we've witnessed in our own lives It's a nuance, but it makes a difference and then when you put things into an ad then it's programming. It's called programming Content program that calls programming and it works and just to show you The other side Trump released his own attack ad of course he didn't buy any media time for it He put it on Instagram And this was played widely. It's a lot of people suspect... Excellent, excellent product A lot of people suspected no gender producer created this I've just blasted through the audio because you know it doesn't work in just audio You have to see the video Yeah its very funny So when you hear the Donald Trump ad every single piece taken out of its original context The first three women were all talking about one or two comments about Rosie O'Donnell

45:56 MSNBC, of course when you have an attack on Hillary you have to deconstruct it. You see here's Matthews anyway Trump today attacked Hillary Clinton whatever a quarter would looks like these days he attacked Hillary Clinton with a new Instagram which causes that uses a clip out of context our former secretary barking like a dog this may be new low-grade Trump but let's watch Well that clip of Secretary Clinton was pulled from a story she told in Nevada last month about a radio ad in Arkansas. Here's what Clinton actually said, in the actual context. Whether it was true or not? Well we've trained this dog and the dog...

46:51 Okay, Robert that was pretty low. Treating her like a dog let's face it what they're up to there. What? In the world of sexism that would be pretty high up I would say just because they took that out and cruelly made her look like that well to quote Carly Fiorina from 1,000 years ago in other words a few weeks ago she said every woman in America knows what he meant. Oh there you go so... It went from dog- That is pathetic! He went from dog to misogynist To bitch, I guess. I guess that's... every woman understands So you know just to wind up my personal- Listen, I saw the thing actually had to watch it a couple times because it was so well done

47:31 And it was trying to accomplish one thing. It was funny, yeah? It was a very funny ad. Everybody laughed! Yeah, silly. Yeah, it was out of context huh really I didn't know that but she always walked around barking all the time. That's actually insulting...to deconstruct that ad insulting because it's nothing to deconstruct. It's just a silly little ditty put on Instagram." Wow! Well, let me say a couple of things about some of these clips before you continue. First of all the anti-Trump stuff. The second one I believe was actually questioned the intelligence of the audience. The first one was just mean and the other thing is how when have we ever seen in American political life

48:20 Anti- ads to this extreme don't vote for. Now, this is interesting I'm sorry too but it fits perfectly I think, let me see is this it? This may be it. About the amount of money being spent on attack ads... And this man became very angry and you know what again I don't condone violence but the kid shouldn't have had the finger up in the air either okay if that's what he did so I'm gonna take a look at the tape and all I'll let you know So, is that the threshold? It's just the wrong gesture and it's okay to clock them. Well I think that's a terrible gesture if you want to know the truth we can say oh it doesn't matter but I think its a terrible gesture and you know what's interesting

49:02 These people are disruptors. They're not protesters that just I'm sorry this is this may not be the right clip, but I'll just play it anyway ruptures They're professional disrupters in some cases But that's all they do they stand up and they disrupt And if somebody did that at a Bernie a Bernie rally many of these people come from Bernie and you know? I have tremendous young people also we have a whole level of young people. I can't even believe it how young my audience is, but if they ever went to Bernie's rallies and did the same thing? I want to tell you would be so angry with me nobody talks about it but you would be so against me It's a whole different standard when it comes to Republican conservative versus a liberal If people went to their rallies and disrupted their rallies like my rallies are disrupted The press would stick up for them and make all sorts excuses

49:51 how terrible it is. So, you know we have two standards in this country it's very unfortunate the press is extremely dishonest. Yeah that was not the right clip I wanted to play unfortunately and I had-I had the one I want to play 30 seconds sorry How about John F Kennedy? Did you admire John F Kennedy I respected him. We never really got to see, you know it's a thousand days we never really got to see what the end result was going to be with John F Kennedy but he certainly had a style that was good and i think it was good for the country He was a cheerleader You know to a certain extent being the president you have to make lots of good decisions but you have to be a little bit of a cheerleader for the country and I think that's where President Obama really lets us down. I thought he would've been a great ch- I wish i had found... Two great clips had nothing to do with what you were saying, I'm sorry Let me finish my point Yeah move on, I'm sorry It couldn't do your follow up which is unfortunate I'm sorry it was a winner Now.. I'll get back to my winner I wanna just take an aside from that one clip we already deconstructed that phony incident with the Breitbart girl

50:52 Oh, who was in the commercial. Who was in the commercial saying that he assaulted her and... Yeah which is a- That's the lie! There has been way too much evidence to the contrary including they keep talking about there's a Washington Post reporter witnessed it They keep saying that It's like a meme Exactly There's a Washington Post reporter that witnessed it We've never heard from this person He witnessed it but what did he witness? He witnessed her being pushed aside to get out of the way. That's all that happened, there is now video that kind of confirms that and you already played the clip where she is just talking about... And seeing as she and her editor both resigned

51:30 Well, this is where I'm going. Alrighty Okay Ben Shapiro who I've had clips of on the show and you refuse to play him You think he's a total dick? He's that fast-talking kid who was I think a conservative like I refused to blame. I don't know about that Yeah, okay. Yeah, you really get irked by listening some about this guy really Let's see if you can do it again blame me. Let's see if you can do it again. Do you have a clip? I don't know which one darling well, I Don't have one I don't have a clip of him. As an aside, that you don't like him as a clip source because he's a fast talker, real fast talker and he just spews cliches.

52:15 He's good. I think he is a great talker, but you don't believe me? I'm just telling you your own information. Yeah okay... You know..I've seen him. He is fast talking guy and he's like a punk. He's like a punk. You just do not like him. And he has been on the conservative side. He kind of competes with Ann Coulter to write books about this and that. Anyway, he is one of these characters. He quit with her and then couple other staffers quit And this is as if they're making a protest. I've actually orchestrated one of these at a publication once, where everyone quits for some reason just to embarrass the company. You are union organizer John? I'm shocked! So one of the things that I immediately spotted and I got this prediction from The Red Book you watch...

53:06 Ben Shapiro and a couple of other people who quit. I quit, I quit in protest! Where are they gonna go? Not backing the guy They're all going to start their own publication And Pierre Omidar who hates Trump Oh my god If anybody wants to see some...I sent you a link to his tweets Yeah it's crazy What does he talk about in 99% of his tweets? Trump hate Trump Trump Trump horrible Trump Trump Well bring it up, bring it up You're great at reading tweet Read his tweets. You sent that link to me and I was like, whatever. Holy crap! It's just but like 15 a minute? Oh yeah every second he is completely obsessed. Doesn't he have climate movies to make or something? How do you spell his last name? Drive my car Pierre Omidar Dramacar. There he is. By the way congratulations

54:03 Pierre Omidyar, Drive My Car is has doesn't have the little uh... Oh he's not verified. Yeah. Very good trouble maker. And he's got 528 thousand followers Well there you go Maybe it's not the real guy maybe you've got the wrong account No i see him Uh okay here I'm just gonna read right from the top This years biggest superhero movies are all about Americas descent into fascism Why doesn't the real Donald Trump do what every nominee has done since 1976? Win the delegates needed before the convention. Why is he whining?" That was a retweet from somebody else, but Pierre re-tweeted it He's also retweeted this... Trump on his foreign policy advisors I'm speaking with myself! I like that one

54:52 Now he retweets this. He tweets a Paul Graham, This is beyond left versus right the economist rates of Trump presidency among the top 10 global risks. That's great that was great endorsing Donald this is like every minute it is all in the same 22 hour period endorsing Donald Trump immediately disqualifies you from any position of public trust Is there a rule, is that another Biden thing? I guess. Anyway he goes on and on and also then he retweets the intercept which has been tasked with going after Trump but they don't do it very well No they're not doing a good job at all i agree Because its almost as though Glenn Greenwald

55:40 Just that guy, I think he likes Trump in some funny way because he thinks it makes for more news and better news cycle. But he's not at the forefront of any of the Trump noise? No no he is not but he has retweeted a few things And here's the intercept. Pierre again retweeting, he is obsessed with Trump it's wild! Here he is re-tweeting the intercept where he says Donald Trump warns of riots at convention if he has denied nomination Now this an interesting thing because I've got the clip and that... I'm just gonna say you caught it too That is not exactly and its all over the news this morning Donald Trump says there will be riot

56:22 It's they say it as it is an implication. They imply that he's calling for riots yes Now, the best thing...the closest he comes is ABC does a...which hates Trump. They're still irked by they can't get Bush in. ABC is still on the anti-Trump bandwagon and in a very subtle way and very well I think they do one of the best jobs of it. And here's to wrap up on ABC of Trump on the riots and how it kind of what he said that they do have him quoted and they do have clips of him and what he says is you know I think he's doing more of a warning. He is not doing it as, they're portraying it as a threat but its not a threat. Here's the clip. Donald Trump fresh off major victories overnight now warning of riots if the Republicans try to stop him at a contested convention

57:15 Trump winning several states, those in bright red on the map but not winning Ohio which makes it much harder for him to reach that magic number. The total delegates he needs to clinch the nomination before the convention. Trump now calling on the party to embrace him saying you can't ignore the tens of thousands who've turned out for him ABC's Tom Yamas with Trump's warning tonight Tonight, Donald Trump warning if the Republican establishment tries to block his nomination there will be chaos at the convention. I think you'd have riots. You know we have...I'm representing a tremendous many many millions of people! I think you would have problems like you've never seen before

57:53 I think it would, bad things would happen. I really do believe that. I wouldn't lead it but I think bad things will happen." Trump's words come in with these images still fresh to American minds. Anger and violence at his campaign rallies. Trump now saying its time for quote a natural healing process. We have a great opportunity and the people that are voting Democrats are coming in, independents are coming in and very very importantly people that never voted before. It's an incredible thing. Not of Trump's origin. When you are... Oh, sorry Yeah I just want to say this is to me a classic Hillary commentary When you are inciting mob violence which is what Trump is doing in those clips There's a lot of memories that people have You know they're in the DNA People remember mob violence that led to lynching Oh!

59:01 Yeah, yeah. It's in the DNA I remember lynching. Used to have lynching over here at the telephone pole! Oh hey you think ABC did a good job? CBS went all the way down they went as low as they could go if you want to make someone look bad There's one television trick that always works. The 2016 election cycle has been tough for some adults to watch, these students feel the same way Now these are grade school kids Oh no! Yeah oh yeah Are you tired of them being mean to each other? Yes Leading the witnesses! Tired of them talking over each other? Yes Are you tired of making fun of each other? Yes Where do you think all that started

59:49 Donald Trump. They pay close attention to a range of issues immigration gun control terrorism Donald Trump has said that one way you deal with terrorism is just keep all Muslims out of the country You believe this? Can you believe this?! out of the country from coming into the country for now. Not all Muslims are bad. Say that again Max? Not all Muslims are bad. Some Muslims are probably super nice You look forward to being able to vote someday Yes Do you think people your age should be able to vote? Yes

1:00:27 We're very, very bright and really paying attention. Yeah I think that's terrific anytime they can be involved in the process. It made me wish i had like four of them you know every day at breakfast their authenticity and their truth-telling Their authenticity! They're so authentic. I'm gonna give you a clip of the day for that. Oh yes! I knew it! BAM! BAM! Let's just go on a little side here for a second and I just thought of this as I was listening to these kids. Isn't that child abuse what they just did there? Oh, it's total child abuse. Now knowing the neurolinguistic programming tricks is it possible that these guys, the liberals in particular, the people who are promoting the not all Muslims are bad. Are using the brain trick that... The brain does not recognize the word nots! Yes very good point which is why we always say remember instead of do not forget you want to say remember and the brain doesn't parse negatives So the brain parses is

1:01:23 And this is being promoted as the major meme in the mainstream media and especially in the liberal side. Not all Muslims are bad, which is saying all Muslims are bad on a programmatic basis. So people are literally being brainwashed to think all Muslims are bad in kind of 1984 mechanism. Exactly Which is if you think, if anybody wants to thinks about that for a minute. You now should donate to the show because... You just got your money's worth.

1:04:20 Thank you. Okay on to Barry Sutton who gave us the st Patrick's Day donation at three hundred seventeen dollars That's right happy st. Patrick's day sixty yes, and here we are working on st. Patrick's day Everybody has a national holiday right? I think this that post office in banks Tina's working, but she didn't even realize. She said last night, she said wow a lot of people are out tomorrow at the office Yeah hello St.. Patrick's Day Well they should be drinking on st.. Patrick's day now and be out tomorrow Oh yes correct That's the way to go shouldn't either right way to know we're here working We're working we were always working on holidays 3 17 16 st.. Patrick's Day donation from Lynn Sutton

1:05:03 Actually, it's from Lynn not Barry. No it is. Yeah exactly, it's from Lynn. Okay hi Lynn this donation comes for two reasons firstly I would like this donation to push my husband Barry over to the line tonight who it easy on the list I think so yeah can now be known as Sir Baz. Please make him the executive producer for this donation. Secondly, and most importantly I need to get some factual support on an unexpected argument that arose this evening." Yes it's a funny story. We're here! Here we go... While having dinner with my sister who was home from living abroad the conversation

1:05:40 unexpectedly turned to climate change. Where myself and my husband Baz started or stated that we didn't believe that the rate of climate change that was being attributed to human means was as high this was being reported My sister absolutely freaked out! Calm down! That was her. We have a recording. She freaked out to the point where she told us that we were Trump supporters! There you go, oh man... Remember we live in Ireland

1:06:19 And that she didn't know if she could return home to visit if we continued to maintain this position. Oh yeah, it makes sense We went back and forth in our argument She is a scientist told us of course humans were destroying the planet She's a little, yeah okay. Shut up already! Science! They feel that the humans are destroying their planet they're the same people that want zero population growth and or actually global cooling same deal or global cooling we encounter told her that there was There was more propaganda around how climate change was the man-made issue rather than being cyclical, which it is. And cited how we regularly hear things like 2015 was the hottest year on record with little proof or at least manipulated statistics to back this up which we actually produced on this show.

1:07:13 This is a problem again with listening to this show. Well, the pro... Yeah. You get real deconstructed information that probably gets you into family arguments because they're just going by what they hear on television. So she asked for some links specifically about NASA and NOAA changing their data I actually sent that to her Oh good for you And also sent here all of the articles in the 70s when it was global cooling we're all gonna die but i would recommend Not doing that your sister. I agree with you your sister will never ever Agree certainly not by sending articles No, it's just not going to happen So this is so this meme is so well beaten into people that You can't really get them out of it

1:08:04 You can give them all the articles in the world and you can see all the reports that come through. There's a pretty balanced number of reports that go either way, but they only read the ones that confirm we're ruining the planet. And they think the other ones are just bullcrap, even though you have plenty of them. Or the 30 thousand scientists... Other scientists... Or 97% or 98%. Or 99! The 97% bogus thing which we should probably replay one of these days, the explanation for it. So yeah I agree. Just find harmony. Pretend she's like your younger

1:08:42 kind of below the IQ level of a normal person, young sister who really has to be treated with kid gloves. The bottom line for me... And treat her that way! ...is again we are separated by the realities that we have. Your sister's reality? That's really her reality you cannot blame her for feeling that way and being extremely angry at you because this is exactly what she's been programmed with. Yeah, and I think the interesting thing about these climate change fanatics are...is the anger that they possess because the skeptics don't have any of this! I would recommend you ask your sister to read Michael Crichton State Of Fear just ask her to read that book

1:09:28 Yeah, that's a good example. That's about all you can do even that is sketchy But I think that's that's a good thing to read this book tell me Michael Crichton died He'd commented on the mentality of actually put that in the show notes again It's uh he had a whole prelude to his two and I think it was a speech as part of its Well we have a clip it was on Charlie Rose when I'll dig the clip up and We can play part of it but he said he was she's never seen anything like it they sure anger from these people and how they get so worked up. And in the case of your sister, yelling at you about you being a Trump supporter? What's Trump got to do with this? He doesn't even touch on global warming! So okay... I would have taken that as an affront. And you're in Ireland?! That's the joke of it. Well even funnier, The current president Obama

1:10:26 Denied. What's the name from Sin Fenn? Gary, Irish guy... Oh that's Northern Ireland I'm sorry different. I'll back away sorry got my politics mixed up. The north then the the guy from North you know as Gary was his name. Glenn Ross? No a Sin Fenn guy anyway he went he was turned away from the White House St Patrick's Day Celebrations. He was turned away because of something wrong with his passport that didn't let him in the Irish guy

1:11:03 It doesn't matter Claudia Gerber who I must have sent an email or something because they don't have a note from her 314 16, I'll look it up and see if we can catch her for this while you're talking. I'll check you never know 314 16 And she's in Lisbon Ohio If that she's the last associate executive producer for show 808 then we go to John done F 234 dollars and 56 cents from Arvada Colorado And he will be the one and only associate executive producer for show 808. And his note says, keep up the great work I know your preference is not to receive a bunch of emails but I compel to write after hearing the overboard listener you discussed on episode 807

1:11:46 I want to emphasize the point that all KnowAgenda listeners out there, the show isn't about who Adam or John supports for president but about the media deconstruction and thoughtful discourse that deconstruction produces. I've enjoyed the show's coverage of the United States election cycle and find the discourse thoughtful and productive. I have been trying to promote open discussion to my ultra-liberal Boulder, Colorado colleagues at my work! I actually seem to be getting through! Oh careful now Thank you so much for helping cleanse my mind twice a week. And if it goes any further...I don't think so. Oh no it does sorry

1:12:28 Blah blah blah twice a week I lost track. Okay, and give me a healthier outlook on the world Please keep doing what you do best? I haven't donated in awhile so I stepped up to help out for show 808 Thanks again You've got karma Alrighty, and that concludes our executive producers and associate executive producers in the value for value model where we don't take any advertising. We are completely free of all shackles I'm freer here than i am on the street yeah especially in Austin during a shot south by southwest where you have to have a badge oh yeah you gotta have a badge and a lanyard and uh... and a beard I had the vape! I have the vape! Oh tons of beards oh yeah they're like cookie cutter man cookie cutter

1:13:15 Um... I have, yeah. Yeah, I guess? I don't know Thank you very much for supporting the program We'll be thanking everyone else $50 and above later on in the show And remember these credits are absolutely authentic If anyone calls that into doubt we will gladly vouch for you Remember got a show coming up on Sunday Devorak dot org slash N A And whether your'e on the streets of South by Southwest here at Austin wherever you are in Gitmo Nation Please go out there and propagate The Formula Our formula is this We go out, we hit people in the mouth. Now I caught something which reminded me of something that we discussed at the beginning of our run as show back in end of 2007-2008

1:14:18 And it popped up on CNN. And it was funny, you'll hear this news model just her head go blblblll she receives information from our guest who is I think he's with the Kasich campaign definitely with the Republican Party and he re-explained something that We know, but I honestly had really forgotten about it. Your candidate said today regarding this violence that broke out in Chicago last night ahead of the Trump rally here's what your candidate said today Donald Trump has created a toxic environment and the toxic environment is allowed his supporters and those who sometimes see confrontation To come together in violence there is no place for this

1:15:04 There is no place for a national leader to prey on the fears of people who live in our great country. But what about those who argue, where was Kasich? Where were the other members of the GOP establishment during the past few years as some in the party attacked the president President Obama with false claims talking about where he was born his citizenship and many of them just stood by. Where was he then Well, John Kasich has been running a positive campaign throughout this entire effort in his run for president and I don't think anyone would ever argue anything otherwise. All those things that you brought up were actually created by the Democrats, were created by Hillary Clinton in 2008... And some of the wild things that Donald Trump says- Wait wait! We just don't think are representative of our party What do you mean?

1:15:54 What do you mean when you say those were created by Hillary Clinton? I mean the birther movement, the notion that somehow Barack Obama was a secret muslim. You're saying Hillary Clinton is to blame for the birther movement? Those things came out of the 2008 very ugly Democratic primary that went on their side, that lasted until June. And then of course Barack Obama became their nominee and ended up winning the presidency. Can you clarify for me how your pointing to Hillary Clinton for starting a birther movement against the current president? Now I like this happened because i'm like oh yeah remember this! If you go back and look even on the coveted politifact

1:16:40 which is coveted by the Democrats. Coveted, I tell you! They say that this started as a rumor in the... and then i went back and we even have it on our show notes to put it again It was an email that was circulating the Clinton campaign about Barack Obama when Hillary was against him in the primary about him being in having been born in Kenya and not in United States And thats where it started but of course This is no longer known. I think it's well documented that that was in fact where this all came from the 2008 primary That the Clinton campaign started these rumors about Barack Obama And they were still able to come together as a republican family for the Democratic Party our party will heal now She's still confused listen Hillary Clinton just we're gonna move on but Hillary Clinton never asked for the president's

1:17:27 in a then-Senator Barack Obama's birth certificate. Donald Trump led a lot of it and a lot of people are... And Mitt Romney wanted Donald Trump's endorsement, he got it at the time when he was... But Trump, Romney... What is? Who is this? What would the woman or the guy a woman one of the CNN girls? I don't remember who she is. She's a mess She's no good. She but she was flummoxed because this it's fact It's proof as Donald Trump with this goes back to 2008. She probably can't remember back more than a month But I had even forgotten it so I Actually haven't forgotten that hmm, I remember the memo mm-hmm

1:18:09 I mean, yeah the girl was right because she doesn't remember Hillary asking for the birth certificate but that was just a gimmick. Right That came later The idea that Hillary tried to put doubt in their minds She was very ineffective campaigner then and she still is And you know, she's jacked up on all kinds of drugs to keep her standing Oh, she's totally jacked up That's why she screams so much She's 70 years old. I mean, you were electing and...I don't want to say this because that why am not going to get any younger neither are you? They're all seventy. Bernie, Trump, Hillary. But Trump has got a lot of life to him she says seventy-year-old woman that does like an old lady And i hate to say that but it is just the way it is in bernie being almost eighty years old he's got a lot more energy than hillary hillary's tired

1:19:01 And I don't think she's taken enough drugs. She needs to up the dosage a little bit. Yeah, she needs to go and up the ante. Here are a couple of Clinton things that I want to play... My favorite one, which was a news item this week, was Clinton going on. Clinton really makes stuff up as she goes along to an extreme I don't know how she's gonna do as president if she gets in which i think is still good possibility. I think it's very good possibility and I don't know what how she's gonna handle things because you make stuff up The classic one is Clinton lies about AIDS and her role. Hillary Clinton has been forced to walk back statements on President Ronald and Nancy Reagan Notice how it's called walking back when it's Hillary, not lying but walking back

1:19:46 Speaking on MSNBC, Clinton praised the Reagans' low-key advocacy about HIV AIDS back in the 1980s. And because of both President and Mrs. Reagan—in particular Mrs. Reagan—we started a national conversation when before nobody would talk about it, nobody wanted to do anything about it. I It penetrated the public conscience, and people began to say— Look at this actually happened. Penetrated? She's insane! It's kind of like we were under sniper fire. —conscience and people began to say, hey, we have to do something about this too. After critics noted that President Reagan did not even mention AIDS until the seventh year of his presidency, Clinton apologized for the remarks saying she misspoke about their record

1:20:53 Yeah, then I'll give her the same leniency that I gave to the other candidates. Sometimes you believe something went that way and you made up a story back then and it's just cemented in your mind and forget it happens to everybody. You convinced yourself this actually happened? It happens to everybody! I want to make a couple of comments on this. Because I was very cognizant in the San Francisco Bay Area, very cognizant of the AIDS situation. And what seems to be overlooked in all this especially with the Reagans... The timeline!

1:21:29 Now, there's two interesting pieces of information involved here. One, AIDS didn't become publicly even an issue or known about until around 1983-1984 when Reagan was going into his second term so no one is gonna be talking about it It didn't get to the point where there were even as many deaths as are car accidents till after the Reagans were out of office and you can say that Clinton did much better This was the beginning of it. So you can't expect Nancy Reagan to be talking about AIDS at all! It wasn't really an issue, and here's the kicker I remember very specifically reading about AIDS, and if you remember reading about it in University California In the library in the newspaper room because I was doing some research on something else And I'm reading these current events newspapers

1:22:20 I think in the 80s, let's say 84 when that thing really started catching or 83. 83, 84 and 85 the commentary was always the same It is going to, we're going to have a vaccination for it. And it's gonna take at most seven years and we will cure it so don't worry about it! Something will cure in 7 years and this was the litany, this was the meme. It was curable as soon as we get the vaccine any minute now In seven years that'll be will have the cure by then maybe sooner maybe next year maybe next week And that was that. And that stayed in play for a very long time.

1:23:02 She just tries to make it sound I mean because when they make her walk this back this bullshit back This is all made up which is bullcrap to say the least that they kind of imply all these news all the news people imply that That Nancy was actually a bitch because she didn't want to talk about AIDS and the gays hated her John the gays hated her but I were then hated Ronald Reagan. I was in The Netherlands and So I get a different perspective at the time. But the Netherlands was, you know... all kinds of social issues like that were at the time very upfront and very open people really working on things and it was consistent. Ronald Reagan? Asshole! Nancy Reagan even worse. And then add to that just say no which is kind of like a big deal in Holland. For years the gay community was outraged by the lack of communication The lack of speaking out what i recall

1:23:56 Well, you know the funny thing is they have a son or Ronald Reagan Jr.'s gay out. So there's some sympathy in that level and both of them are actors from Hollywood so they probably have a lot of friends and apparently Rock Hudson was a good friend to Nancy's. Yeah. So that's all bull crap! And of course... The whole thing is bull crap! Anyway just pointing all the realities out I got a few things. Well, wait and wait on one more thing to say we're talking about Hillary being full of crap here let's play one more Hillary this is Hillary just lying but this in this case uh this again as democracy now who are big pro Bernie people but this was one of the funnier little episodes of Hillary lying that reminded me of a couple of different things but the mainstream media had nothing to do with this story

1:24:54 I always get a little chuckle when i hear my opponent talking about doing it. Well, I don't know where he was when I was trying to get health care in 93 and 94. Sanders supporters were kicked to highlight archival footage showing Sanders standing right behind Clinton during an address on healthcare reform in 1993. Standing! Standing right behind her. Well, I don't know where he was turn around that was pretty funny And I'm not gonna say- I'm gonna give her one. This was, uh... let me see Yeah, this was touted by right-wing media as a big lie. But I'm going to put it into context and say that she wasn't really lying because it's...I'll play the clip the way it was played. Is Libya perfect? It isn't but did they have two elections that were free and fair where they voted for moderates yes they did. Libya was a different kind of calculation and we didn't lose a single person We didn't have a you know problem in supporting our

1:25:52 our European and Arab allies in working with NATO. So that of course is, oh what about the ambassador? What about all the three other people? In context, he's talking about the NATO bombing of Libya which lasted for six months with zero television coverage in the United States. You could not see any of it we followed that very closely It was a United Nations Security Council... what was it? 1973 I think we remember the number even So she's referring to that and not to what happened after that Benghazi. Oh, they're calling her out because of Stevens? Yeah! They're saying oh you lie...you did lose...no That's taken out of context You're right It's taken out of context That's not a lie In context what she said is true We didn't lose anybody because we didn't send anybody The right-wingers at the time by the way were all during that era I remember this

1:26:46 Oh, we're not sending people. We should be sending people! We can't be leading from behind. We're leading from behind. We can't lead from behind. We should be leading from the front." Now they are actually advocating us sending people and getting them killed. And now they are bitching? Yeah... There's no doubt that she actually did say this. We came, we saw, he died I don't know why no one uses that. Why doesn't anyone use that clip? I have no idea why, that should be used against her like nothing else It's so bloodthirsty Yeah...I picked up a Bernie clip which um...disturbed me Should he become president Not very likely but uh-huh just wanted to play it We can do incredible things with energy efficiency Making our buildings more energy efficient! We can create a state of the art

1:27:36 rail system which takes trucks off the road. Now, why are the kids screaming about taking trucks off the road? Well trucks are annoying. But trucks is the backbone of the United States you can't just take trucks off the roads! No trucks we would have nothing if we go down to tubes. That's crazy... The calculations show that trucks are probably more efficient than any other way transport for goods and services but listen to the kids! I think these kids would be cheering and we're going to turn grass the it to read Oh Man Trump has a cruise

1:28:27 is not I'll take Kasich. It needs to be taken out by sick, is it? Well if Kasich doesn't go he should quit well if Kasich doesn't go Cruz has no chance and the end I've already seen you know some of the anger that Kasich isn't quitting like the I don't have a clip but Glenn Beck is just freaking out about that so Cruz had to come up with A new gambit. He has a new gambit and he's repeated it a couple times, here is his new strategy. But I suspect Donald will continue running and hiding and basking in the protection from the network media that is trying to do everything they can to make him the nominee because they know he's the one candidate on the face of the planet that Hillary Clinton can beat in the general election. Explain this! Now this is an interesting theory he has so Cruz is out there selling

1:29:18 that the mainstream media is giving Donald Trump as much attention as possible because they know that if he becomes the nominee and runs against Hillary Clinton, uh...that they know Hillary Clinton will beat him. So it's very interesting what he's saying. How has the media done that? Well, the media has given him about 2 billion dollars This is a number that did show up. It's a meme, I've heard it. I've seen it calculated and I have seen little charts, meme like charts that come up and say this number has gotten 2 billion dollars of free publicity. No, free media! Free media! Well let us listen to the rest of his gambit...

1:30:01 The media has given him the equivalent of about $2 billion in free media. If you turn on the television at any given moment, it is a wall-to-wall infomercial. You know when there were protests and speeches in Chicago? The media ran every station just hour after hour after hour a telethon for Donald Trump I kept expecting Jerry Lewis to come out and make an ask for money And they do it constantly Every network...and the point I make This is not an accident and it's not the host. Listen, I don't hold it against the hosts It's the network execs, it's the suits in the suites who are almost all liberal partisan Democrats They're ready for Hillary And they do everything they can to saturate the airways Donald Trump practically goes to the bathroom and gets carried live on network television Every speech he gives

1:30:53 He does a press conference that's like watching the shopping channel. He is up there selling steaks and steak knives and wine, the media desperately wants him to be the nominee as a result they don't cover anything about his record about... Yeah yeah whatever, whatever Cruz Fine. Meanwhile he is giving more publicity. I do have another Les Moonves clip who has done it again Unless it's in seventh heaven apparently. Oh, so this is the CEO of CBS? Vibram? And the first time we heard him in an investor conference, he was talking about how great it's going to be. It's going to be fantastic for all of the advertising money. Here is a guy who does not give a crap about Merck I'll tell you that but... He actually does because he cares about money which is what we are all about! Is it too early to know whether or not will see a new high watermark for political advertising revenue? I'd be surprised if we don't see a new high-water mark this is uh this is a pretty

1:31:51 interesting year. I'm going to be careful what i said because i got in trouble last week for something that got misconstrued about Mr Trump all i said is he's very good for ratings yeah, misconstrued you were pooping your pants you were so happy put it that way our ratings are way up in the debates and that means extra money and political advertising if you notice there's a whole new batch of advertising being spent right now The political situation is very strong. I think it will remain so the rest of the year, and obviously helps our local stations a lot."

1:32:26 We have a lot of stations in key markets and so we are looking forward to this year as to be a year that delivers a lot of political advertising. What becomes interesting, depending on who the candidates are there may be some Republican candidates that local senators and governors are going to have to spend more money because let's put it this way they may not be absolutely in sync with the national ticket So there may be more money spent that way from going that way. So put it this way, we're anticipating a record-breaking year everything we've seen everything we've heard our analysts tell us it's gonna be a very good year. Well I guess now brings another point there was

1:33:14 And I think the people that are new to the show, we may have some new listeners. We do have...have to know that the thinking- Wait raise your hand if you're a new listener? Okay. ...and pledge that you will listen again. There were never going to be campaign finance reform as long as these money, the profits and all of it goes through the media because then because the media would have to convince the public this was a good idea And this may actually account for the fact that the one candidate who is sincere about campaign finance reform, Bernie Sanders has gotten the least amount of coverage. Now in fact there's a very funny clip that I have here from Democracy now from yesterday

1:34:01 Sanders snubbed again. Last night, the major news networks played every candidate's speech but one. Now the Congress may not talk about it much. The media may not talk about it much, but it is unacceptable to me and the American people when the top 1 tenth of one percent now own owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90%. You got it. MSNBC, CNN and Fox all

1:34:40 Paul did not play Bernie Sanders speech. We'll go to Illinois, Ohio North Carolina and Florida." I love the funky music they got going on there. Yeah that's what it does for me. So i've been listening as you know during the day I have all three television networks on. I've got C-SPAN on then I have Sirius XM 127 progressive to get an idea. Thumb Michelangelo Signorelli What's The Woman In The Morning whatever her name is They all hate Bernie. They're all for Hillary. What? Yes, and they're taking- This is a progressive station! Yes sir and they are taking calls and it'd be like okay we want to hear who you voted for not who's bad... And there was enough seat on the face bag now people are at the Democrats are getting pretty heated with each other Hillary, Bernie, Bernie, Hilary and it's getting ugly so there's a lot of infighting going on there

1:35:37 No clip. I'd like to contrast that with this, the show i like to watch for this sort of thing is C-SPAN when they have the call ins and they have the girl there who's very just very attractive kind of talker she's there and she takes one from The Independent line and she goes on...I'll have to clip this because it's really well done She says who did you vote for? Why did you vote for him? Why do you think that What you know she really draws these people out so the general public that listens to C-SPAN which isn't anything but the general public That and they she gets them to say who they voted for why they voted for him what they think about him It's it's outstanding little product. Yeah, it's really a good show

1:36:26 I'll get some clips. Did you see the anonymous announcement? No, what now they're gonna get- Dear citizens of the world we are anonymous let's get one thing perfectly clear to my subscribers and supporters You may remember me as the one who organized the complete shutdown of Anonymous Operations A branch of anonymous that successfully waged cyber war against Turkey, Hungary Cloudflare and Donald Trump. You may think I silenced these hackers as a Donald Trump supporter but that is far from the truth In fact OpTrump was the only thing they ever accomplished that we admired So it just goes on and on and what are we gonna do? On April 1st We need to DDoS all the Donald Trump websites Oh god Okay Pathetic

1:37:20 A bunch of these anonymous boys, the sink pissers. Well what? Sink pissers! They walk in and piss in the sink that's... don't you know this kind of person? Yeah yeah as long there are no dishes in there it's not that big a deal I caught... The Bill Maher show has been fantastic recently for this show to get clear It has been and I have to say Maher is Mars, I don't know what he's contrite about a number of different things. He normally wouldn't be happy about except for the he stole you know The global warming thing is still too much on that Yeah, um I picked up now there were it looked like they were think Bill Kristol was on and this This woman from Seventh Capital She had managing printed though which is an investment bank? I think seventh capital Monica meta

1:38:13 And she really just, I was listening to it because I was expecting to have some kind of Obama bot jumping up and down. She laid in about government waste and spending. We're seeing this outrage because there's an exceptional frustration at the fact that the government accountability office by 2029, that's 67 billion dollars. Donald Trump wants to save? This is 400 billion dollars that we could get if we actually just audited this. McCarran-Ferguson Act 1945 insurance companies are exempt from antitrust regulations they can collude together to set prices and share information how many Democrats how many Republicans have been in office since then why is this still here I looked at health care

1:39:15 healthcare company shares from 2009 to today, health care company insurance stocks are up 400% while the S&P is up 200%. This is a bull market. Why is this happening? If you're reforming... You're saying since Obamacare yeah this is what's going on. I'm just saying why do they have that special treatment They have to cut a deal with insurance companies. Exactly! Because one party would not even consider the idea that we cut the profit motive out of people sick and dying, which is what every other civilized country in the world does. So we cut the profit motive and they became more valuable

1:39:59 She sounds like a little firebrand. I liked her, but she's a Trump shill for sure because she's actually giving the backstory to Trump's fraud waste and abuse in what do you call it? In the Pentagon military Yeah that's the new Pentagon military that hasn't been audited forever And i didn't know that the insurance companies were not susceptible to collusion That's what she said. Buy each other up, that's kind of when it's one of the reasons they got rid of Glass-Steagall so they could let the banks do the same thing and let the banks become insurance companies, which was prohibited during the Glass-Steagall era that Bill Clinton kicked through to the curb. So we have Dodd-Frank which is this huge monster... The difference in size of these two bills is ridiculous especially when you compare their effectiveness but the size of Dodd-Frank nobody can read it! It's just like a giant book. It is rather complicated

1:41:02 All right, onward. Yes yes yes oh yeah let's dive into the migrants and Turkey in the EU deal Well I have an entremont then. Okay. This is we don't normally do much of this and i'm only going to take many clips from comedy shows because we don't normally do anything like that. But I did have to get the one thing you've done already and i'm gonna do it again this is a small clip of piece of lie witness news on The Kimmel Show where they go out on the street and ask people questions as if

1:41:40 with the questions are all bogus and that but the people because you're a special in los angeles where one wants to be in television or movies they take they just pretend that they know the answer and here's it is my favorite one things that people are for people are against it depends on who actually is for or against. What is the premise? What is the question, what does it say? This question will go from then the one is are you happy with the fact that Obama has put so and so up for this Supreme Court nomination? Things that people are for people are against it just depends on who actually is for or against in the society. I think, I mean it...I don't have a problem with it." What did you think when you heard that President Obama nominated L Ron Hubbard to the Supreme Court? Are you excited?" Yeah! I am. I thought it was good choice because he's more Republican and I guess uh.. I identify myself as a Republican so I was pretty um...content with that choice." Do you think replacing swearing on the Bible with an e-meter in the Supreme Court is a good idea to read people's statements before they testify?"

1:42:44 I would say yes, just so that it's a thing as a national one. Not everyone swears on the Bible and believes in that so its more of a thing to keep it one. This was a gorgeous girl by the way! A smart looking intelligent UCLA kind of sorority woman with her sunglasses on she looked just adult. Hello world. Sad, okay so things are falling apart in Turkey well in Europe yeah in Europe and so again the deal that is on the table which is not what all of Europe wanted this is the deal being driven by Germany who are bringing Greece in their wake to create a deal with Turkey

1:43:44 that would at least solve or alleviate some of the issues with the migrants who now they cannot get out of Greece. The Macedonian border is locked up and we've had many clips, you can go online and see it's getting pretty damn drastic particularly with the weather. And every weekend they're doing new meetings at the Starfleet command there in Brussels trying to figure out exactly how How we can fix this. So first, we'll go to I think this is Greece. Here we go. A ferry load of people disembarks at Piraeus the thousands here are now being housed in makeshift accommodation at the port of Athens tens of thousands are stranded across Greece after border restrictions blocked through the Balkans to Western Europe

1:44:33 Here in Piraeus, volunteers are donating food, clothes blankets and medicine. For Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi the situation is hard to understand Europe can organize expeditions to Mars he says but in Idomeni we have women washing their newborn babies with bottled water in so-called refugee camps This is happening in Greece, in Europe on our continent Any agreement with Turkey must respect our values. A number of things. The most interesting one to me is the visa free travel from Turkey to the EU, and this would mean they come under the EU quote safe countries of origin list and I actually have that document in the show notes 808.noagenthenotes.com

1:45:28 On the list are 12 countries, I'm reading from this document. 12 EU countries already have national lists of safe countries of origin... ...the Commission is proposing one common EU list designated as safe and this is supposed to go into effect four or five months from now And Turkey is asking to accelerate that, to do it now. And under Turkey according to the EU 23.1% of all visa applications so far were well founded in 2014 I guess that means 77 percent were bogus One member state already designates Turkey as a safe country of origin and they are an EU candidate country So there's this exchange they're working on which...I have Schultz here who is head muckety-muck there at the council

1:46:12 who will explain a little bit more about this, the deal of repatriate... sending them back, bringing them back in. It's a nutty job. Repatriation is nutty when you hear about it but the real question for me as we listen to this clip is why do they want to accelerate this safe country visa before it goes into effect in four or five months? So get to that first here is Schultz regarding the Turkey-EU deal I think it was quite clear and here in the Parliament debate also in negotiations without full agreement sticking to the rules of the United Nations High Commission of Refugees and the Geneva Convention. No conclusion, no treaty between the European and agreement between the European Union Turkey is possible therefore Giveraufstadt, leader of the Liberals raised it in the morning in Parliament we have to check if this is compatible with the rules on the Geneva Convention but he also said this was more... Now just explain what he's talking about because

1:47:16 The idea is if someone comes to your country and they're a refugee, and they're not a refugee of the United States. They're not a citizen of Turkey. You can't just send them back That's like you just lobbing people back and forth because they're not a citizen of that country either That's why they need to look at the United Nations, the Geneva Convention rules Oh very it's great for these bureaucrats or what would you call them? The technocrats who are trying to work all this out. Prevention But he also said this was moral bankruptcy, the whole deal Yeah that wasn't me who said it I disagree Those people

1:47:52 who with boats by smugglers are brought to an island in Greece, with an unknown future and are retransferred to Turkey. And in Turkey identified and then resettled from Turkey to a member state of the European Union." Do you hear what's happening? So you come over on the boat and then we'll send them back to Turkey or Greece will send them back to Turkey where they get registered and then... They have the right to come back into the EU registered and I guess then they'll just get a plane ticket or something. I'm not sure exactly how that works, just in the last seconds here.

1:48:30 We have to check if this is in the frame of the Geneva Convention possible. I think yes, and even it's possible that there is a harsh strike against the trade model of traffickers because even they spread amongst the refugees that it is more meaningful to be registered directly regularly instead to deliver yourself into hands of smuggler then we destroy the model of the smugglers. Yeah blame on the smugglers Fantastic. I believe that Erdogan, and Erdogan is off his rocker right now that he wants to change the constitution it's just insane what is going on with Erdogan. I believe he really wants to use this to destroy the EU as quickly as he can! To send this many people over all visa-free go go go go go go there's no other reason for it. It's a possibility

1:49:31 It's very subversive if that's even close to true. Well, you know that Turkey is now...you know the talks with Russia are coming back online about what used to be the North Stream pipeline is now going to be the Turkish pipeline I think Angela Merkel who has completely lost her mind she's out of her depth The German people are getting really angry I think she also wants to somehow, and this is what the US would be worried about, to cozy up to Russia. To get back to that they're not gonna... Germany is fucking it up! She was better off when they were tight Yeah! Nice really really really messing it up BUT

1:50:13 If you're a refugee, you've been on this horrendous trip. You've just... I'm talking about that this is Greece. You've been in the shitty rubber boat everyone's sick and dying and horrible and now you're in the mud and you have no future but what does United Nations do to make you feel better? We know how to make you feel better. Sorghum Angelina Jolie is no stranger to the spotlight, but the Hollywood actress received a riotous welcome on her trip to Piraeus Port near Athens to highlight the plight of refugees and migrants. As United Nations Special Envoy, Jolie's mission was to boost efforts by the UN's refugee agency

1:50:55 and the Greek government to deal with the humanitarian crisis, she said. We're very pleased that Angelina came to visit we thank Greece and its people said this Syrian. Jolie was later received by Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras in Athens and from there is eventually expected to travel north to the Idomeni camp on the Macedonian border. Angelina Jolie's visit to the Piraeus port gave hope to the roughly 4 000 people hosted here how sad is this oh Oh, I've seen a movie star. I have hope now! It's true the West is paved with money on the streets and movie stars in my tent In the whole Attica region we have almost 12 thousand refugees and migrants while there are around 45 thousand in the whole of Greece. In Idoumeni over 11 thousand people have been registered while the Greek government is preparing measures for an imminent evacuation of the area A request also made by local authorities furthermore

1:51:51 Thursday's summit in Brussels, Athens is going to put financial demands on the table. Erdogan's idea, I just don't think he has any good plans for Europe. Turkey historically has had pretty evil plans for the rest of the world and Erdogan seems to be bringing back a little mini Ottoman Empire that seems to be his general idea. It could also be that he wants to completely destroy Schengen which is you know this is the zone of countries which does not include the UK who have the border free travel

1:52:32 If all of a sudden we have one EU country saying, oh come on in no problem. Or the EU in general saying come on in no problem It will only create more strife with the Schengen countries Everyone is a bad dude! There you go that's my best Trump He's a bad dude and this came up in a... Hold on a second before you go on That's part of our thing No I mean Just so we can understand when you listen to this clip, what is the end game? What is the benefit? What is the win? I think both. The end game of Schengen going away... If you have a country

1:53:16 that does not agree on its borders internally. What if all of a sudden the United States, we had some people might think it's a good idea, we had to fence around Texas and a border? If you break down... That's not a union anymore. The borders and money are the most important things Okay, that doesn't answer the question. Oh! The ultimate goal? Why does Erdogan give a crap one way or the other that he would be trying to break down the Schengen? To break down EU and to expand the Ottoman Empire and just have all of his people everyone from his Ottoman Empire flow in wherever they can

1:54:02 He's been pretty clear about what he wants to do John. I mean if you want to talk about a real dictator Everyone's going Heil Trump this guy is the problem Yeah, the guy is a problem even though it doesn't technically have any power but he's changing this now. He's calling for his trying He hasn't done it yet He's also saying these he's I think and then if you watch any of the international news shows are all those riots Going all over the place in Turkey they have not calmed down the public yet So he is campaigning for here It Is He plans to kick off a campaign to widen the powers of his office in April as he seeks public support for possible referendum later this year, which would... And also he's talking about the press if you condone or if you hate speech. It's all these things that are going on and by coincidence quickie clip this came up in a separate conversation with our buddy Wes Clark who of course has always done The Seven Countries in five years

1:54:59 And he brought up something that we've been discussing on this show for years. Well, so far it looks okay the real losers of course are the people of Syria who suffered hundreds and thousands of dead and the people in Europe who are struggling through this immigration crisis and especially Turkey who has some 2 million refugees. Now there's active risk, there are bombings in Turkey they've got problems at home and we're even part of that because one of the most wanted people in Turkey is a man named Gulen, former ally President Erdogan who's in the United States running a network of charter schools subsidized by the United States. Yeah, somewhere in Pennsylvania I believe it's a really crazy story. It's a really crazy story haven't heard about it at all! Really nutty story my god woman that's on CNN

1:55:49 That was CNN, I believe. Yeah? Yeah well that's their head chief correspondent is that clip i had like about three or four shows ago when they asked him it was on he was on c-span talking about his book or something and what about gulag the guy never heard of him and he's like their number one senior correspondent Was that about The Extradition? No, I don't remember what it was Yeah, I mean they have no knowledge and i want to plug our producer... It's stunning that CNN is that naive about this. Oh yeah oh I'm shocked! I want to plug killing ed... Shocked! KillingEdFilm.com That's one of our producers Mark Hall is about these schools and there are 50 of them in Texas alone it's crazy good movie to see when it comes out This flows into another hearing on the hill

1:56:38 And of course we're now talking about our broken immigration system. Because we have to fix our immigration system, it's broken and I've dealt with the immigration system extensively... ...I know exactly how it works and there is one part that's broken which gets addressed in this clip although it takes these senators on this panel two hours to figure out what the problem is because it's not that bad besides and this goes back to the problems with with Mickey, you recall that for the mistake of my own she over wound up overstaying her visitors visa by two days even though we had the application in for her green card and she got sent back. She came into the airport and they put on a plane and they sent her back. It's gotta be disturbing. Well it's disturbing when you go through all the work it's a lot of work its forms but also too much money

1:57:36 It's $420 to DHS, and this is the point. The visas are ultimately issued by the State Department but it all goes through Department of Homeland Security so you can see and you'll recall when that happened with Miki I called Uncle Don he said Adam I can't do anything get a lawyer Because ever since DHS took over this, over visas etc., it's been a mess. These people are trained to say no they're horrible they don't know what they're doing so they had a person in from state on this conversation and a person from DHS and there were some other people on the dais and they're talking about well... The first question was how many how many people are overstaying? And what kind of visas are they overstaying on

1:58:23 And the easiest... so they didn't have an answer. They just, oh we don't know. We don't really know that's a good question but I don't know and then the woman from state I think she says well is that most visas are H1, B1 and B2 which is business or leisure travel and people just overstay those in this day and if they want to go through the process So it takes them all this time to figure out the following. But it's not like you have ready information. Oh yeah, there is also a guy who we'll hear speaking in a moment and he is from the Inspector General's office so he has oversight and he's disturbed by the whole thing In terms of no this is exactly how many people had granted a visa haven't checked out on time There's an overstay that should be potentially subject to enforcement Now if any...if you've ever traveled outside of the country You already heard his mistake

1:59:33 Oh, I missed it. Okay. Great how many people had you know were granted a visa haven't checked out in time? What's the mistake he's making? I don't know i can't... We have no exit process in the United States. In every other country I've been to when you leave you show your passport and say okay you're good to go we have no exit process which doesn't seem like a hard thing to do except That would mean you have the visa database, which has had all kinds of problems. It's been down for weeks and we've got all kinds of issues worldwide that has to be integrated with the DHS and Border Patrol was a part... We do not have an exit process in America. And this guy... Well they check your passport? Not on their way out they don't! Who does?!

2:00:29 Well, the airlines and there's a spot you have to check the passport. You have to have a passport to get on the plane No! But that's not... Okay That's to confirm that you're the right person but there is no...you do not show your passport There is no border control leaving the country John. You tell me where? It's not here in America When you leave the country, sure. Well now is it the airline is responsible for our visas? No there is no border leaving. Entry to visa haven't checked out in time you know there's an overstay that should be potentially subject to enforcement General Ross can you speak to this here's the guy who does oversight

2:01:10 What you're referring to really is a biometric system for exits so you can understand who it is who's left the country. So, you're able to compare those two stats. I like what that guy said because that's where it's going obviously. For exits...so you can understand who it is whose left the country. So, you are able to compare those two stats. It's just numbers but its actually easier than that again unless unless I'm missing something in terms of people coming in with a passport and a visa, that's numerical information easily loaded into database with the set time that a visa expires. We don't have record of this person leaving To me that is an incredibly simple database to manage Why don't we do it?

2:01:55 Well, as my most recent report shows I mean the challenges in the federal government and building these kinds of information systems are very very difficult. And i think there has been some effort to try to get an exit system that has not been successful. Everybody else does it! Hold on let me just finish up... Some effort to try to get an exit system that has not been successful so I think As a federal government, we are aware of the problem but we have not been able to do a solution. Would you agree with me in the private sector this would almost be like falling off a log? Yes. In terms of developing database like this?

2:02:33 So this guy, the senator still doesn't understand we just don't have an exit. I know what they're trying to do for some reason we don't want to have an exit system i don't know why and the thinking is well we have the visas we know how long they last we have the entry we have the passport we put that we combine all these systems which of course will never work with that see healthcare.gov, we combine all these backend legacy systems which does not have government works they want to build new and a new cloud and let's create a new thing let's not just integrate where really the only problem is just have an exit system that is the only thing that's broken And I think...I have standing in this I've done..I've been through this but why don't we have that? I don't understand other than the integration between two departments that apparently can be done

2:03:28 Yeah, well that's laughable of course. Well let's see what kind of an exit system would be the one I mean in many countries you have to like buy a ticket to get out Yeah, you can't come to the United States without a return ticket. That's for sure. No I'm talking about when in Japan for example when you're leaving and have to buy this coupon from a machine as it's like a tax that is 10 bucks or 20 bucks and if you don't have this thing they won't let you out of the country which it kind of like just a scam and lot of countries do that You have to figure out which ones they are because if you get lying next thing you know we got

2:04:05 whatever it is. I think what the guy was saying, the oversight guy and when he kicked off about biometric system...I think that's what's probably in the works so that's probably where they're like oh yeah a biometric system! Oh yeah this would be great! Yeah we'd give people chips in their arms! I don't know what he's thinking. Eyeballs or fingerprints? Well maybe but it would just be simple to say hey show me your passport on the way out. It looks like you have a visa here and looks like you've overstayed. You know I don't know why they Yeah, you're right. You just get on do you go on the plane? They want to have a passport not just for ID Because you could use your driver's license and they won't let you on the plane. They don't want to deal with taking you back if you're Denied entry to the country that you're going so that's there Just this is a greedy rationale yeah for good reason you know when I'm wasting money And so you get on the plane then you're over there and then they check you in To the then that's when you go through passport control mm-hmm, and then they stamp and do all this other stuff

2:05:05 When you come back, that's when I guess I got mixed up because when you come back, you do go through a process. Right? So there may be someone who is listening in the audience who knows...the only thing I can garner from this hearing is that they don't want to create a standard exit process, they want to integrate all these systems and then I think it has been an ongoing fight. It was never gonna happen. No. I think they use the integration thing as an excuse not to do work I'll make that my theme for the show. The government people, I worked in the government...the idea of not doing a lot of work is very appealing." Hell yeah!

2:05:42 And who wants to go through the agony? Because especially when you're doing something that what you're talking about, integrating two discrepant databases...and there's plenty of people that can do that effortlessly. But the problem is it's the mid-level bureaucrats that say, well why don't you make it so it does this and add this feature." It's worse than that. They're probably fighting over who gets the contract. That'll take longer than doing the actual work. Well, there's that too. Now, so I was diving into the immigration thing and...I don't have a clip but I heard again someone say oh Trump with his wall bullcrap how's he gonna build it?

2:06:22 to the wall. And by the way, Mexico is going to pay for it? Yes! Do you know how Mexico's gonna pay for it? I think he was gonna add some sort of tax or something. Yeah... Mexico wasn't actually gonna pay for but Mexican things going across the border were gonna Well how many times have you heard Donald Trump being mocked for saying Mexico will pay for continuously? They had a Mexican former president saying no I'm not gonna pay for it yeah so I did something really crazy Yes. I went to DonaldJTrump.com Oh no! I know, I'm insane because of you know Donald has a... Donald Trump has no platform he has no No, I didn't know either He's just randomly mouthing off And uh..he has a piece on immigration and how and I'm like okay How exactly is this going to be paid for? An it's quite extensive actually Umm....and here we go I'm going to bring it up here Mexico will pay for the wall

2:07:23 Where am I? Oh, that's a preamble. Preamble here. Mexico must pay for the wall until they do the United States will among other things Impound all remittance payments derived from illegal wages. Increase fees on all temporary visas issued to Mexico's Mexican CEOs and diplomats, and if necessary cancel them. Increase fees on all border crossing cards of which we issue about 1 million to Mexican nationals each year a major source of visa overstays. Increase fees on all NAFTA worker visas for Mexico another major source of overstays and increased fees at ports of entry to the United States from Mexico. Tariffs and foreign aid cuts also options we will not be taken advantage of anymore." And he's correct! If you do that, Mexico is indeed paying for it. And what-and what he's saying is, oh, you pay for or we just hike all these fees and you'll pay forward eventually. Yeah same thing... What I don't understand is why he doesn't ever say that? Why does

2:08:26 I think there's a couple of things going on with why he doesn't say that, because i didn't know it either. Well you guessed properly! You had a good guess, that was right. I'm thinking that nobody is demanding that he explain it He pretty much nailed it early in the show when he said he talks in simple terms Yeah, doesn't say a lot. You know he's just simple stuff one or two syllables very little syllables Converses with the with the his audience and he does is you know? He's 35 minutes and then does him again to get this hour out of the way and It's just conversation I think one of these big appeals And you went to we wanted the events to check it out, and it was it's nothing You know it's just a guy up there chatting away with some good ideas in general

2:09:16 I don't notice that Bernie Sanders has got, you know they always bitch about it. Oh Trump's got no specifics? I don't see Bernie Sanders having specifics about how we're going to be able to get free tuition for the kids. Well... No! I did. Everybody's website actually, I caught myself saying hey wait a minute. I should look at all of it and Sanders he's kind of saying... He's not saying free college tuition-free which is there's a slight difference in there for public schools but let's be honest the message has been concatenated down to free college, free university for everybody and the way he wants to pay for it and see says its 70 billion dollars a year what would cost

2:09:56 And he's going to get that from the Wall Street speculation tax that he... Okay, so he is gonna tax more. Yeah So everyone does have a version of Trumps' tax plan but I just spent some time looking at everybody's plans it was quite refreshing because they do have- But thats never talked about None of these were debate questions This big shit show which doesn't matter at all because The party chooses who their nominee is not the people Idiot that's what they always used to talk about whose turn it is yeah pay your dues you get you know your turn my turn before we Alright, thanks some people switch new topic

2:10:42 You want to go new topic? New topic. Well, let's catch up with Brazil at least and get that out of the way I love catching up with Brazil because Brazil is fabulous! You know, one of the things that De Silva was the previous guy running the place is they're calling him out for being corrupt in some way. Of course a lot of this had to do with Petrobras and all the mid-level managers that were... The whole company was on a bribe system and there's hundreds of millions of dollars changed hands with different kinds of you know this guy bribing that guy, this guy bribing that guy but I look at De Silva

2:11:36 Where's the money? The guy looks like a bum off the street. He's unshaven, he doesn't have a place in Switzerland that I know of...I don't know that he is living in a mansion it's not like that guy was running Ukraine you know with his fancy house It just like there something very screwy about Brazil. Brazil is just never an ever-ending screwed up place but its country of future Beautiful to visit though yeah Its great place to visit And the people in Brazil are the world's greatest people. The world's greatest are in Brazil? I think so far as just being friendly, yeah. Dame Angela from Nevada just sent me a note about the federal programs for biometrics which you can find at biometrics dot gov who knew! I wouldn't have guessed it. So part of that is the real ID and then we have the Office of Biometric Identity Management

2:12:34 which supports Department of Homeland Security responsibilities. We have the transportation worker identification credential, my goodness! Registered traveler and we know that I'm going to look into this and look into this see what's going on thanks Dame Angela um now what do I have lined up here for ah yes 60 minutes on Sunday um I was kind of uh blown away because we've talked about this very specific application on the show, they were talking about the apple crack and about terror. And sat down with the guy in France and the French government who's responsible for anti-terrorism. And of course for finding terrorists and all the Charlie Hebdo as well as what do they call it? They say the kosher deli. I love that in the report

2:13:27 That was a kosher grocery. I've never heard anyone say kosher deli. It's in this report. The terrorists are able to communicate with total impunity. François Molan is the head prosecutor of Paris, he has investigated all the big acts of terrorism here including Charlie Hebdo, the Kosher supermarket and now the November 13 attacks where 130 people were killed, more than 350 wounded. Do you have phones in terrorist attacks that you have not been able to get into because of encryption? Yes yes With all these encryption software programs we can't penetrate into certain conversations and we're dealing with this gigantic black hole a dark zone where there are just so many dangerous things going on

2:14:19 It's not just phones. One of the things he is looking into is a texting app favored by ISIS called Telegram, which like the new Apple iPhone offers advanced encryption How often have you run in all your investigations into Telegram? Yes very often. Telegram we can't penetrate We can't get into it Well I'd say honeypot! Telegram is known to be insecure You know, the funny thing is ever since we played with Telegram the two of us about I don't know 2 years ago when it first came out and then we nixed it as a secure method of communication. And um...I still have it on my phone because I have the same phone that I've had for the last 5 or 6 years because this fantastic product and everybody I know because every time somebody joins that puts me on some list or something they get a message

2:15:19 And so my telegram message box is filled with everybody, everybody I know that I communicate with is on Telegram too. And it keeps happening people keep joining it. Well witness this kind of propaganda for it they're promoting an insecure app! I thought that most people in the tech business in particular all know that this thing is a compromise or sketchy Well, that's what I thought but they're not tourists terrorists need to need to be using this app or anyone who saw the 60 minutes piece Oh, I can communicate securely. That's great And they actually had a whole piece on the Russian kid who created it was now has no country or whatever No, yeah, yeah Yeah

2:16:21 I know where this are yucking this up. Did you see that there's a tweet going around? That wasn't it, I guess it was from some it was cut and pasted from some what people thought of the no agenda show no and The one that I think was on number two everyone gave us five stars said just one guy gave us One star as his comment was oh yeah with the review of the app Yeah Yeah, two idiots laughing or sniggling. Two idiots sniggling through the national... what was it? National tragedies! Two idiots sniggling through national tragedy. Amen. Fist bump. That's right that's right the two of us snuggling pretty much as we sniggle through sniggling I'm sniggling I'm sniggling I'm sniggling anyway What a douche yeah

2:17:15 Let me see, um... Since you're talking about Brussels let's play a more formal Brussels terrorist clip that came out. I think it was on NewsHour. A manhunt is underway in Brussels for two suspects with possible ties to last year's Paris attacks they fled last night after police-a police raid turned into a shootout an Algerian man was killed and investigators uncovered a trove of weapons and ammunition. They also found an Islamic State flag the November shootings in Paris left 130 people dead, and today French police arrested four people suspected of planning a new attack I have the I think the Euronews report of the same

2:17:59 I'm just saying, if this was happening in any US city where there were terrorists and gunfights... This is Brussels! This is Brussels. This is the home of the EU! It's Brussels! And I'll bet you there's more. It's almost as though they're building up armory in Brussels so they can attack the EU. That would be, I think would be a proper thing to do. Police in Brussels searched buildings in a city suburb well into the evening hours after a French Belgian raid linked to November's Islamist attacks in Paris ended in death and injury The authorities say police were fired on as they carried out a routine search Four officers were wounded in a subsequent shootout Hours later police stormed the building and killed an individual armed with an assault rifle

2:18:46 Police haven't confirmed reports saying two suspects are still being hunted. The events kept the southern district of Foray in a state of lockdown They asked us to evacuate the bus because the police had blocked the street We got out and walked, then I heard gunshots near the church I also heard 2 women were involved so I walked away and stood at the stop over there Brussels has witnessed many raids and security scares since being identified as the base from where the Paris attacks were planned and coordinated Tuesday's ordeal lasted for hours for many parents only able to collect their children from schools and kindergartens after dark. I'm just surprised by the lack of...

2:19:23 Overblown big story. Oh my god, you know what I mean? If that happened here it would be so oh, it'd be explosive It'd be fantastic Never get any news about anything else and wanted to thank our producer Christopher who sent me a product which I've been trying Adam I hope these pinhole glasses help you as much of they have helped me I work in an office where i spend eight plus hours a day reading medical record documents from a computer screen before getting a pair of these. I would often leave the office at the end of they were tired eyes and fuzzy long-distance vision since using these, I no longer experience fatigue eyes are thought to be perfect to you." I remember hearing in recent show that you were experiencing some vision problems yes so my near sightedness...the focal distance changes from day today depending on how I woke up Are you familiar with the pinhole glasses? Absolutely

2:20:20 These are fantastic product like it. That's the mechanism is exactly the way a pinhole camera works Well, you can take out You can take filming make a pinhole camera which is just a pin hole and that way the light goes through that little hole It actually comes into some sort of you could focus that well according to the brochure that I received with it This is a closely guarded secret how work how it works Oh, yeah, right. A closely guarded secret going back to like the 10th century. 1934 is actually when the patent was filed. Yeah well it's an older idea than that... It's an interesting you put it on for like half an hour and you do kind of get used to stuff and then the whole idea is to retrain your I guess your muscles to adjust your focal distance

2:21:09 I'm thinking it would be a perfect product for us to sell. Yeah, yeah that what you're right i think you're onto something. Yeah perfect absolutely. You know class. I've always told the truth. That's not my understanding. I'm gonna show myself by donating to no agenda imagine all the people who could do that oh yeah they'd be fab Well, we do have a bunch of people to thank for show 808. And I want to also say 808 is very important number in the musical industry music industry. 808 did the famous Roland 808 who doesn't know it? Also It is the area code for Hawaii

2:22:06 Which I get a number of people tweet me that, oh you missed the gimmick. And so we're not over with it. I guess we can get the two Hawaii listeners to come on board. Let's thank a few people who contributed to this show today. Show 808 starting with Jason Daniels from Dallas at $173 and 16 cents and then we have William Granger in Marion. What is that number for? Odd number. 173 16 1 7 I have no idea and he doesn't send a note or anything so we don't know let us know this is obviously a meaningful number

2:22:46 Somebody in the chat room might know it's probably recognizable 169 69 and Marion, Indiana is William Granger And he said yeah actually sent a card. He sent us into a very nice card We love cards and he and in the card he wrote handwrote a note and then did what a lot of producers do type to note separately As a something that was actually readable stop is nobody can do longhand any stop one seven three sixteen is of course today's date 17 316 okay, thanks gummy nerds obviously paying zero attention to anything

2:23:26 From Sir William the Red Knight, thanks to the best podcasts in the universe for keeping us informed in these obfuscating times. It's impossible to put a real value on this show but I hope my meager $169 and 69 cents can at least garner me some much needed love karma have a happy daylight savings that will put a karma end for you. You betcha thank you so much Thanks with the card by the way Richard Russo in Glendale Arizona 160 16 Loves the media deconstruction sir Mark Tanner actually gave two donations He gave a 50 and then he gave 100 in the same pack nice So I combined him to have 150, but I thought I'd mentioned that as you once in a way every once in awhile He donates twice a month. That's great And every once in a while he ups the donations usually fifty bucks twice twice a month any puts a hundred in he's the best

2:24:20 He's in Whittier. Matthew Kilgore in Oklahoma City, one two three four five and we also had a note from him now Matthew I recently read you do read some of these notes that are actually handwritten and sent in Matthew Han wrote this note, and I think he's a millennial but he can do kind of longhand. I'll just read part of it. He said okay see? I have been a longtime listener then he scribbled something out of no agenda and if am finally in a position to where I can de-doosh myself. Something scratched out started off, he's got lots of stuff scratched out too you guys while I was living

2:25:02 Something in China something scratched out here to us a mess the very first show I listened to back in 2010 was Adam loosing losing his mind is my yes on John due to questions regarding His something. Okay? Oh, yeah know what that is oh So he got off to a rocky start. Thank you for your tireless investigations, okay? Our pleasure! Onward! Master Kilgore... David Kepler... Daniel Kepler. I said David. Yeah but it's Daniel

2:25:47 Yes, it's Daniel. Every time I see the name you want to say David in Phoenix Arizona and Troy Sprague and Ron Block Michigan who also sent in a hand they said that or actually he sent the card in okay He sent the card Thanks for your deep thanks for the card. Thanks for the card man This is another one of these complaints. You did two idiots reading donations. Sneagling Sniggling. Thanks for your deconstruction of the media, you have definitely opened my eyes to the corruption of the mainstream media! Keep up the good work. You can mention below on this show if you wish I work for a hexagon dot com No Illuminati connection as far as i know We're Swiss based company that sells precision measurement equipment Okay, don't think we need to know that But hexagons are in the news So is 1111 also in the news For the millennials

2:26:47 1111 is in the news? Yeah, everyone's talking about it. Oh I looked at the clock and it said 1111! Hmm... yeah that's a new number If we do 1111, it's a donation It says it's a subscription The 1111 subscription is very famous That's correct But now I have it too whenever I look at the clock Ugh, 1111 again You see 1111 on the clock? Yes, you're supposed to make a wish when you see 1111. Oh god! Your guardian angel is sending a message to you and then... You see 1111? Yeah it also means that your on the right path for your destiny I've looked all this up Really?!

And there it is mutton and mead go to no agenda dot com slash ring rings and Eric will get one out to you as fast as possible. Whoa. All right. Somebody tweeted me saying that they sent a note which is what I'm still looking for but their tweet name and is like

2:36:47 You know, it's not a real name and doesn't have an email address attached to it. I don't know if I heard from him... I get very disturbed by these things By what? Why anyone tweets me about this is beyond me About what? Well when somebody says that we missed them Oh! And they send notes to you and Adam and their tweet name is like Troll 30 or something crazy Oh that guy Yeah Troll30 We'll send it again, we'll figure it out Hound us, hound us You actually jumped in on my beat and you sent me this video. I'd already seen it, and I figured I'd pull at least one clip from it from my Beat The View And this is just a call back to Melissa Harris Perry Yeah who pretty much called MSNBC racist for not dealing with her appropriately

2:37:39 And she's obviously a, she was like a professor or lecturer. Yeah, she still is... She's a professor and I think she's almost full-time. And she never worked in the business. Except for this one time. So they went on hiatus and she's all bent out of shape because she's the center of the universe! And she actually used racial tones, let's call it that racial words and comparisons to her then employer now former employer And I just loved her backpedaling on this on the view when she was asked exactly what did you mean? This is what you wrote quote our show was taken without comments or discussion or notice in the midst of an election season. I will not be used as a tool for their purposes by the way but I walked under the set of MTV one day and then

2:38:29 And then there was Ricky Rackman with Axl Rose. Oh, Adam you're not hosting Headbangers Ball anymore because you know hey Ricky brought in Axel that's how it works! That's television! You win some, you lose some...You're not in control deal with it This is what you wrote quote our show was taken without comments or discussion or notice In the midst of an election season I will not be used as a tool for their purposes I am NOT a token mammy or little brown bobblehead So is the implication that there's some racism in there? Yeah, what do you think well so you gotta remember this was an email I wrote internally to my team. I didn't have any intention or we're only racist behind-the-scenes Or it have any expectation that would ever be public and so part of it is me writing into my team I'm a african-american politics scholar so when I say mammy I mean something very particular oh okay

2:39:19 Because she's a scholar, she gets to use words in her own context. And it's basically the history of Mammy is that Mammy is the black woman who cares more about the Masters family than about her own and so what I'm saying is I don't care more about MSNBC's reputation that I do about the Nerdland family Okay couple things first of all The Nerdland family get a grip on your team She even made it worse She thinks she made it okay, but I say oh no. I just mean this as uh...I'm not working for you know iIm working for the family not for the the evil white corporation. What's a nerdland family? What is she talking about? This is how it works, I've seen this a million times so you're assigned to producer and then that producer keeps working on your show this producer probably does other things and the camera guys some weekend shows they have your particular team and they became really tight the nerd land family she's delusional! Delusional is what she thinks that somehow has some right to her show or whatever it is and then she goes on to say

2:40:23 The way I mean it is, oh we stay with the black family not with the white masses. My brain is frying over it. Sounds to me like she just called them racist, that's all. She's not backtracking very well... Not called out of course. Cover? He had a crap show, she's a terrible host. Let's start with that premise by the way. She stinks! Let's finish the last 30 seconds you'll have more to comment on. It was racialized not in the sense of like they're coming after Melissa for being black... She even leaves a little bit of room that

2:41:14 Is that really racial? There still could be evil whities. Do I think it has racial implications, 100% and here's how i know it Oh! It has racial implications Our show had the most diverse guests on cable news period. It just is an empirical reality An empirical reality John John, she must have the data to back it up. Is a professor speaking? I want to remind you empirical reality that the downtrodden and the lame of society could only appear on her show nowhere else. It just is an empirical reality taking this show off the air even if you put me individually back on as a host meant that the folks who sat at our table whether they were transgender women of color whether they were

2:41:57 Latino Republicans, they just weren't going to be there anymore because we were the folks who put them on air each and every week. We got some guy with a limp and you know... Hey you've gotta hump back! You're on our show! She comes on this show and she's wearing one of those old terms for that she's probably 1 8th black maybe She's a very white looking person. And she is wearing whitish makeup, she is wearing makeup that lightens her skin so if you just saw the show you think she might be Latino...she could be French! That level of black and whoopie

2:42:40 Just didn't engage. There was nothing I could pull from Whoopi's response? She didn't say anything, she just sat there steaming! I don't think she likes this woman at all with good reason But she should have said something This is...I can't believe no one is saying hey hold on a second you're making it even worse Yeah well she's a racist And let's point out one thing 100 thousand viewers if that on the weekend please I think that would provide a high. Zero ratings, zero ratings! We're talking about an asterisk or one... An ass tick? Yeah Well i didn't know you were going to clip from it because uh..I just thought you'd get a kick out of it but- I did but I felt that was necessary Just to... Maybe not Piling on this woman But I thought she was just horrendous person As a person I didn't like her at all I though she was incredibly racist Racist and bigoted She's so bigoted

2:43:38 I enjoyed watching the show. There was always something funny, there's always somebody saying something crazy... I could not get through that show! Let's get back to more of a down-to-earth show that everyone can understand with a theme it always has a theme Let me guess. This is a democracy now, and the theme in this case is—you start with this clip—global warming getting worse as usual? A new study shows the number of people who could be displaced by sea level rise this century due to global warming is much higher than previously thought, with more than 13 million people at risk, nearly half of them in Florida.

2:44:19 Those numbers are about three times higher than previous estimates for displacement. Deepak Mishra elaborated on the findings. I think, you know, there are certain layered approach that can be—that can come from stem from this research. So nobody can have... what is he saying? A layered approach that can stem from this issue. As soon as I heard that, which is trigger words for a bullshit artist from India who this guy apparently is, I said oh my god he's making no sense! He's just throwing words with a layered approach What does that mean?! so I have the second part of him going on there It's a comprehensive reform John it's the same thing Layered Approach Comprehensive Immigration Reform

2:45:06 So this will be the mumbo-jumbo clip and I want everyone who listens to this guy, who's the expert of the day I guess. Listen to what his sentences sound... listen to each sentence and listen to his words and piece them together like they should be a sentence that tell me if anything he says is coherent or makes any sense whatsoever. For example, you know if you tell people that okay 85 years down the road 13 million people will be affected if we take the most extreme projection which is 1.8 meter sea level rise by 2100 but I think we need to take this study forward by doing another study of

2:45:52 What is the impact of sea level rise right now in terms of frequent coastal flooding? Nice to have Omalek on the show. Okay, you're dealing with that guy! He's just talking... But John seriously if we're going to talk about sea level rise and and the state of the climate then there's only one thing we can do Because what's happening in Greenland right now The maps of the world will have to be redrawn Alright, here we go once again. This is what would happen to San Francisco Bay. I'm looking at the San Francisco Bay from here and got this window next to the studio and the mud flats are there in full...there must be low tide..there's not a drop of water that it's all muddy And haven't moved? Has nothing changed? Nothing changed! Just so you know everybody

2:46:51 So I'm looking out there, and seeing no change. I don't see any sea level rise but let's go... of course i'm just looking at the reality so I could be wrong. How crazy! So let's play one more these clips this is another one on democracy now because she can stop talking about it This is another hot month Oh yes! This was great New data from NASA shows global temperatures last month smashed previous monthly records, making February the warmest seasonally adjusted month in more than a century of record keeping. Meteorologists Jeff Masters and Bob Henson called the report a quote bombshell, a true shocker they said. It was a shocker! Shocker? What does it season... Bombshell! What does seasonally adjusted mean? Means it's fake as they fudge the numbers Seasonally adjusted

2:47:45 It's a new fudge. They got fudges all over the place and we know this from years ago, they've been doing this What do we have to do to make these numbers good? And now I got an idea let's call it a bombshell of a shocker Bombshell report! Bombshell! The bombshell! And its because of this with just, you know...they don't explain seasonal adjustment or anything. And all of a sudden weather is now climate I guess month to month? Is that how we're gonna roll? Month to month now? Yeah, month-to-month. Shocker! It's it's a total shocker I tell ya. We're so surprised

2:48:26 Okay, my last clip and we should go well you may have the last one But I just have to pour some depressing stuff and then you can bring us back up. I got one yeah There was a there was a lot going on in Washington this was about I think it was the judicial oversight committee and The converse the conversation the topic at a certain point was because there's a bill on the table a bill about partial or full birth, full partial, uh, partial live or full live abortions. So apparently when you're going in at 22 or 23 weeks it happens that the abortion happens that the child is aborted but it's alive when it comes out and this isn't more frequent than you'd think. And it's ghoulish. It's well and this is why I wanted to play

2:49:23 So the question that the senator has is if there's an abortion that takes place and the child comes out alive, should that child then receive medical care or not? Now I think we're really getting to the crux of something interesting. It's no longer an aborted fetus now we're talking about a human was come out and then what is, what should you be doing? Should you whisk that child off does the child have the right to have all care necessary to keep it alive or not. Very interesting to hear the feedback from the people who are questioned uh... You'll first here um let's see I think it's an abortion researcher scientist there is luckily someone who disagrees with that at the end but the topic itself on how its discussed was ghoulish

2:50:19 kind of medieval the way they're talking about it. Do any of you, I said specifically including the minority witnesses disagree that a child born alive whether it's after a failed abortion or not should get all available medical care for survival. Dr. Foster? I think that the problem with this bill is that it treats all pregnancies the same and there are pregnancies where... I didn't ask about the bill, I just asked about that statement. I do disagree that I can imagine situations where the doctors and nurses have decided that there's not a point in medical intervention and by whisking the baby away you've taken away a woman's chance to hold her child and say goodbye

2:51:01 So this is, yes. Yes! This is what caught my attention so what they want is if the child is alive after a failed abortion you should give the child to the mother so she can have it die in her arms instead of giving it life. Oh my god! There's more or whisk it away this is almost as though they're saying which shows you can say goodbye and then you take out club and knock the kid down well the whisk it away thing which is refuted later on by the other person Oh, it's aborted. Here you go hold on to the kid while it dies or whisk it away and try and save its life And what this researcher said as well I mean not all abortions are the same You should be able just have the mother hold a child while it dies in her arms And by whisking the baby away? You've taken away a woman's chance to hold her child and say goodbye Okay so if there is care available towards survival do you think that in some cases that care should be denied

2:51:56 I think that the law says that all, that the child has to be taken away and receive medical care if there are signs of life. Which doesn't allow for the physician or nurse or more importantly the wishes of the family to say that they don't think that care is going to help in this case and that they want to hold their child And if the care could lead to survival, do you think that should be able to be denied? I think that doctors and nurses and women themselves know best whether care would lead to survival. This bill doesn't allow that judgment to be made. I just disagree with what you're saying

2:52:36 The worst complication for an abortionist is to have the baby born alive. And I do not feel that, um...the abortionist has the best interests of that child at stake and the mother may not either. Um..The bill is not saying you must give that baby extraordinary care. They're just saying you have to give them the same care, you would give any other baby at that gestation and then and then at that gestational age they do need to be where they can get the best help and the mother can go with him." And this just went on and on it was disturbing to me...disturbing. Yeah I could kind of see what they're trying

2:53:23 Yeah, I think there's a lot of agendas. There are a lot of agendas in this topic and this bill personally. I think we should have an amendment to the bill that if you have an aborted baby and it is alive and let it die then you could mount it with taxidermy. I think that would be kind of cool just having... There ya go! You can collect a full set No less ghoulish than the stuff they're talking about I'll tell you Nope Very very ghoulish Even though were sniggling through tragedy Yeah, that's it. We're just sniggling away. Okay I've got one last clip and this happens every year...I don't know we don't cover it all the time but we covered it every so often and this is the happiness report that the UN produces every year Can I guess? Oh actually I'm going to have you guess a bunch of things but let me let you guess number 1 and then I'll give you the last one too, the 270 or whatever it is but yes! Guess! Denmark Right

2:54:21 You read it, you heard it someplace. It was all over the news. Yeah of course. Apologies to Disneyland Denmark is now officially the happiest place on earth The United Nations says so in a new survey of countries based on health data job security rates and other social and political factors The United States ranked 13th Burundi came in last. The happiness index, I've always wondered how they come up with this happiness index? Well it's just some of this vague but...I've got a couple things one thing to say is that you know I've been to Denver and now Denmark same thing very close very similar Denmark and they complain a lot for happy people

2:55:05 I think they're, they're, they're, they're Kvetchers. They constantly... Well do you have a question? Because i have something to say about this. I have a question. Your question? I want you to guess who came in number two Number 2! Of course I don't know this. And is it.. well give me a hint Is it European country? Yep So let me give you real hint It's right in the middle of Europe Turkey? Trick Question Switzerland is number 2 Switzerland Number 3 You'll never guess Ireland Iceland Okay Okay, I'm gonna just give you now. I'm gonna stop giving you any more because right now here's the quiz It's a little quiz a little ask Adam kind of action United States came in 13th mm-hmm. I'm gonna name a country I'm going to do this Just I'm not gonna bore people stick with this budget and I have to say higher or lower without it I'm gonna name a country And you're gonna say if it's higher than the United States or lower ie happier or unhappier Happier are less happy than we are in our happy country okay?

2:56:07 Costa Rica. Unhappy? Lower. Yeah, so I was correct lower right yeah that's you'd lower not unhappy well less happy less happy Belgium oh completely unhappy number 18 you're right costa rica by the way is only number 14 so they're pretty much the same as we are all right let's try something else this is the united kingdom uh i'll put them above the u.s Wrong! 23. Oh my goodness, they're right there They're just above Chile and below another country Let me try another one Netherlands I would put Netherlands Probably at 11 7 oh yeah higher than I thought so yes higher than Israel? I don't know Happy Yeah, I think they're happy higher than the US

2:57:08 Well, you're right. They're number 11 as a matter of fact. All right let's try Austria Very unhappy Nope they are happier than the United States by one Those happy people! Yep they are happy Okay last... I'll do two more and then we can kill the show Canada Oh very happy Much happier than we are Yes number 6 as a matter of fact Now They've done well for themselves I looked at the number 1 Denmark because i did of course see this report And then I also looked at the percentage of the adult population, male and female on this scale. What country has the number one prescriptions of SSRI medication prescribed to them? Well, I hope it's United States. No! It's... Percentage-wise it's Denmark

2:58:00 And 38% of the male, of the adult population is on SSRIs. Antidepressants In Denmark? Yes! Oh they're so happy! Of course they're happy! One last one I'll give you two more Two more...one Ireland Didn't we already do Ireland? We did sorry yeah they're unhappy Okay let's try this one Luxembourg Oh super-happy They're rich Twenty, they're way down. Maybe the riches are wilting... Oh no I think you've nailed it! It's SSRIs You need the drugs man you're not happy without the drugs So that depressed Danish are taking SSRIs and so this is the United Nations encouraging usage of drugs Well I didn't say they were encouraging that That's what it sounds like to me

2:58:54 But yeah, 38% of the adult population is on SSRIs in Denmark. Yeah no wonder you're happy and it doesn't surprise me the Dutch are pretty happy all stoned Although I'm very worried about... Let me read off to list Denmark Switzerland Iceland Norway and by the way people say Icelanders or not that happy nor but they do know they have a good life Norway I Finland Canada Netherlands New Zealand which I could have maybe tricked you with. Australia is number nine, Sweden's number 10 Israel's number 11 12 is Austria and then the United States followed by Costa Rica Puerto Rico Germany Brazil Belgium Ireland Luxembourg and Mexico. And then it starts to deteriorate well the evidence is clear

2:59:45 In order to be happy we need more drugs. Yeah, and I was gonna say the Netherlands have a bad feeling about some terrorist shit happening there in The Netherlands yeah, I think they're prime. They'll be next great country to do something Maybe real or not real. Yeah, I got it. I'm at Paris bad vibes bad vibes alright everybody Thank you for joining us here for our little deconstruction if get mo nation We will of course be returning on Sunday with another program for you, so please remember us at Dvorak.org slash NA and yeah I was saying what else has happened?
