About this episode

The State Department faces intense scrutiny after Rear Admiral John Kirby admitted to the deliberate removal of a three-minute segment from a 2013 press briefing video regarding secret Iran nuclear negotiations. This excision from the DVIDS repository has sparked a debate over government transparency and the potential manipulation of public records to evade search algorithms. The incident coincides with new legal revelations from Judge Andrew Napolitano regarding Hillary Clinton’s use of an inoperable BlackBerry to bypass the Freedom of Information Act.

In Texas, Plano Senior High School administrators banned National Honor Society members from wearing graduation stoles to ensure no students felt excluded, a move critics compare to the dystopian equality of Kurt Vonnegut’s Harrison Bergeron. Meanwhile, British commentator Milo Yiannopoulos sparked massive protests at UCLA during his controversial college tour, leading to a heavy police response and student lockdowns. The FDA has also drawn fire for approving candy-flavored amphetamines for children with ADHD, while the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation demonstrated the release of genetically modified mosquitoes at the Recode Conference to combat the Zika virus.

President Barack Obama’s use of the slang term okie-doke during a recent speech is analyzed alongside a musical remix of his signature stammers. The episode also features a report on the Austin Bug-Eating Festival where crickets are served as the protein of the future. Dame Elise provides a batch of homemade limoncello from Alaska, sparking a debate on the texture of wild versus farmed salmon.

A strict personal policy is shared regarding hanging up on callers who ask "Is this Adam Curry?" without first introducing themselves. The segment highlights a perceived decline in professional phone manners among modern callers.

British commentator Milo Yiannopoulos is currently on a controversial college tour titled "The Dangerous Faggot Tour," drawing significant protests at campuses like UCLA. Protesters reportedly blocked doors to prevent his speech, leading to high-tension confrontations. Audio is played of a protester at UCLA having a vocal "tantrum" during the event.

05:27 You saw this, the UCLA...we had two events. We had a... I have the long full report from ABC News on the UCLA thing because I do we have commentary Okay my UCLA thing is something else that was going on at the same time but i want to listen to your... That's probably more interesting hit it Well Milo! The guy that you can never remember The blonde gay guy from Britain who's all for Trump and right now he is on the, what is the name of his college tour? It's like the hostile... Have you seen that guy that Kimmel has? Which guy? For Trump. The Trump Guy

06:04 Oh, to impersonate him? No. No no he's a guy who shows up at all the Trump rallies and starts going crazy. I haven't seen that. Yay Trump! He interrupts conversations. Yeah isn't that what Trump should... It's just funny. No it didn't see that. Didn't see that. It's very funny has this guy on every so often Well so this Milo guy i'm a big fan of his. I think is The Dangerous Faggot Tour or something yeah The Dangerous Faggot Tour He's going around colleges, and he's just you know. He's frying everybody's brain because he's gay And so how can you ever be for Trump or how can you ever be against social justice warriors? You got to see this guy, John. But I got a lot of reports from producers who wanted to go do his speech at the UCLA campus and there were just protesters blocking the doors locking the doors. Really? Yes! On a college campus? No no they don't want him to speak. So here's just it's 10 seconds but you can get the idea as a girl standing in front

07:04 She's so beside herself with just rage and I don't know trigger. She's throwing a garbage can, she's bending everything you hear in this 10 seconds is bending over and screaming just listen. Man, like she'd been shot or something. Wow that's a good scream if you just had it little more fidelity to it. Yeah unfortunately I know what... It was actually sent to me as perhaps a replacement for our scream is its one of those this is a tantrum this is a tantrum though. It's the tantrum and parents recognize this. Psycho Tantrum. Yeah parents recognized us let do it again.

Plano Senior High School Graduation Gown Controversy

Plano Senior High School in Texas reportedly banned National Honor Society members from wearing special stoles at graduation to avoid making other students feel excluded. This event is compared to the Kurt Vonnegut short story "Harrison Bergeron," which depicts a dystopian future where the government enforces total equality by handicapping the talented and beautiful.

plano senior high school· national honor society· graduation· kurt vonnegut· harrison bergeron

07:57 Now, before we get to the UCLA event I just wanted to stop about this for one minute. Yeah, I think you responded on Twitter to this news that Plano Senior High School graduates will not be allowed to wear their National Honor Society gowns or were not allowed during graduation because that would make the other children who were not on the honor roll feel bad. You saw this? You know, the funny thing was I was actually a National Honor Society. Why does this not surprise me? And we had...we didn't get our different gown and we had a little button, a little pin it was actually a little gold pin but nobody felt bad about it and if anything else they'd you know some guy been you'll get on his hands and knees behind you some other guy push ya

08:52 And you go flying. That's the kind of reaction that our school had to us. It's more normal, seems to me! And it's a funny gag!" Yeah yeah well anyway this goes right back to the other story we had a couple shows ago about parents discussing probably better not to read bedtime stories to your children because that puts them at a disadvantage for children who... It's a good one too. And I think it was Sir Jim of Jamaica Plains, our baron there in Massachusetts he said, uh...I know you guys talked about on the show but this is Harrison Bergeron all over again. Well remind me what we're talking about? Harrison Bergeron was this- I believe this is written by Kurt Vonnegut

09:47 It's about an intelligent, athletic kid. Teenager he is taken away from his parents and what happened was his parents were... His dad was too strong and his mom was too pretty so the government prescribes handicaps for people so everyone is equal So the dad has to walk around with 20 pound weights on his arms, or 50 pound weights. A handicap bag around his neck which is just weights and this mom had to wear you know bag over her head to look ugly I never read this story Really? There's even a...I think there's a movie version of it

10:30 Really? You've never heard about... we've talked about it on the show. I'm sorry, but just don't know where you know haven't read everything. I only actually read...I don't even know if i've read a full Vonnegut book. Something about his writing style that was really always had trouble getting through Well so from the Book of Knowledge in the year 2081 not that far off amendments to the Constitution dictate that all Americans are fully equal and not allowed to be smarter better-looking or more physically able than anyone else That would be ableism The Handicapper General's agent...the Handicapper General. The Handicapper General's agents enforce the equality laws, forcing citizens to wear handicaps masks for those too beautiful radios inside of the ears for intelligent people and heavy weights for the strong or athletic." I'm so sure well- Okay? Well, I like this story already! I'll put the video version in the show notes at 830.noagendanotes.com But that is where we're headed! Sounds like it

University Tuition Fees and Safe Space Culture

The rise of "safe space" culture in university systems is attributed to the high cost of tuition fees. It is argued that because students pay significant amounts for their education, administrations feel pressured to knuckle under to student demands to protect their financial interests.

11:27 It's ludicrous. I'll say and maybe just stay... I have yet to understand, and expect to fully understand fully the genesis of this and how easy it has been taking over the thought process or what you want to call it, collective unconscious of university systems Well, there's a lot of... I think it has to do with the amount of money. The tuition fees? How about that? Yeah! Yeah, yeah. I think you pay this... I'm paying this much for school and the school wants my safe space and the school wants the money so they just knuckle under

Harambe the Gorilla Shooting and Social Media Reactions

The killing of Harambe the gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo to protect a child who fell into the enclosure has sparked intense social media debate. Various tweets are read that frame the incident through the lens of white privilege and racial politics, with some users claiming the animal's life was devalued because of the child's race.

harambe· cincinnati zoo· gorilla· social justice· twitter reactions

12:14 That's what I'm guessing. But that side, it's kind of a one-dimensional analysis. And then we might as well go straight into this guerrilla story just because... What about the... We're still talking about the shooting in New Salem? Yeah but we're kinda on social justice warriors. You wanna come back to that? You wanna go into the shooting now? I want to keep with the shooting. Okay let's go to the shooting What do you got? In fact, I think you could have had a little more for me on that. On the social justice world besides that screaming woman. Well, I had this...I just wanted to give you a whole nother Social Justice Warrior thing about the guerrillas. That's kind of staying in the social justice world. Okay well go on with show...I'll hear this out. Okay then of course i'm not going to play you clip of anything because we all saw whatever it was. We didn't see the killing of the guerilla which I thought to be very unfortunate. That surprises me! That's what I want to see

13:06 You want to freak people out? Show that, show that. The funny thing was face bag and tweets because of course in today's social justice warrior world SJWW, SJW squared but obviously the life of an animal is much more important than the life of a human being even though I'm pretty sure the laws of primacy on this planet dictate otherwise But okay here we go some chosen tweets That gorilla was taken from its homeland, put in captivity and then killed to preserve white life. That sounds familiar? Number two... Killing an- I like the little snide remark at the end Oh wait... Killing an endangered gorilla at a zoo for a white boy's safety is white privilege! If the boy was black they would have found a tranquilizer Okay...? Wow... The goril- that gorilla was black unarmed and 17

14:08 I said last night the gorilla was protecting the child. Them crackers just killed him cuz he was black! RIP to the gorilla who is just trying to be a gorilla, but white people captured him and then other white people wanted to touch him now He dead this is great wait a minute Wait a minute there's one problem. There's one problem. There's one problem The kid is black was the kid black yes? Why didn't I couldn't tell the kids black oh This is what do you expect? Oh my goodness. I'd like to know where did you get the I mean face back It's not like yeah, I know you got him from face bag But were they were they in your feet oh, oh yeah? Oh Yeah How did they get near feed from people who are friends with or their friends that these people are your friend or They have friends who they've reshared their things with like a retweet and

Child Safety Leashes and GPS Geofencing Technology

A personal anecdote about using a physical leash for a toddler in airports leads to a discussion on modern technological alternatives. The concept of using GPS-enabled necklaces and smartphone apps to create "geofences" for children is explored. The hosts joke about the potential for "shock collars" to train children for a future of societal compliance.

15:07 And those people are your friends? No, they're acquaintances of my friends. Who are not really friends most of them They're just face bag friends Bag friends Face friends Yeah I didn't follow it that closely that i would even look at the tweets but well The main thing is now of course and I'm going to change My viewpoint on this if I had a quite a long discussion last night with Tina the Keeper about it And, uh... Well you know me I'm a sucker anyway so. She is all in with you! About what? Tina is all in with you Okay You were way ahead of your time Putting your toddler on a leash Yeah She's good She had five different stories He has common sense She has five different stories like this happened and that happened Hey slap a leash on that kid Was that Buzzkill Jr who had the leash

16:07 Yeah, he would always like to take off. He'd just shoot off like it is fast If we went to an airport he would we never find him And I'm from what age to what age was he liked this? I don't know two three something like that for maybe so he was from like two no one before That's too old so like two years who is 2 & 3 and a full year on the leash Now, did you have a... No he wasn't on the leash. Yeah, a full year as if we spent a year at the airport! But can I suggest a more modern version of this? You drug him. No no no parents have an app and you have a geofence

16:51 And the kid has a necklace on and the minute the kid walks outside of the geofence, bzzz bzzz. Shotcaller! It's Joel! Shotcaller! Yeah! Teach him for dealing with cops. You have to buy those shot callers for kids. Yeah I'm telling you this is great GeoFence with an app and uh... He's had one of those Star Trek episodes very familiar when he was older. I'm telling ya' I'm telling ya'. You can just wait for it You can wait for it. It's going to happen, Gio. Maybe it'll be a light shock but it'll be a little... You just have to give him one, a good jolt Yeah but it will happen automatically and it will teach the kid you know for a life full of tasing in school and work and on the streets Better instruction than the leash, you're probably right I think it will work much better because with the leash you are in constant battle straining against the leash And by the way I think a combo deal would be pretty good We could give the kids some drugs AND the shock collar

UCLA Murder-Suicide and Massive Police Response

A murder-suicide involving a professor at UCLA triggered a massive police and SWAT response, placing the campus on lockdown for two hours. ABC News footage describes students barricading themselves in classrooms while police searched backpacks and ordered students to their knees. The response is criticized as an over-militarized exercise that terrorized students long after the threat had ended.

17:50 You see, then I think it'll stick better. The Pavlovian response... Well the drugs will probably definitely put him in a mood to be in modern society Yes well I'm all for it All right so let's go back to UCLA which was a good example of this sort of thing you're talking about because all the kids This is all I saw when I watched this report were I would say they say hundreds of cops and SWAT uniforms Don't forget if anyone doesn't know about what happened at UCLA Some there was a I don't know some sort of a lover's tiff or who knows what it was two guys, right? Yeah Two guys one guy shot. The other was a professor and then he shot himself and they left a note saying you know I love you forever. I don't know what well you they won't really addict dramatic They won't release the note so To the tuition is to I would buy no how about you just use stupid social justice warrior here take that

18:49 So that's what happened, and it was just bang-bang over in a second. But no! So the cops come barreling in thousands of them from the looks of it as far as I can tell and armored vehicles are all geared up with their protective gear SWAT stuff Yes is not right here. They got all the kids on their knees with arms hands on their heads It was hilarious to watch because here's the UCLA, I went to Cal Berkeley and so we have little respect except for the cheerleaders at UCLA. And there they are all on their hands and knees or on their knees with their hands in their heads...and after they found the two dead people which happened in a second and all this was just ridiculous. Hey man! Hey man! I'm gonna give you a trigger warning for real man

19:43 So they found the two guys, but they still had to clear all the students. So they went and rifled through all their backpacks... Of course! ...and everybody of course has a backpack. And I should go on one of my bitches about that. Yeah we know the plane, we know. They have there-they all had their backpacks, rifling through the backpacks to make sure there's no weapons And so, okay you can go. Two guys are dead already there's nothing going on! There's no more shooting... But they don't know what's going on? They had a few shots and then it was over. There was no more shooting there was nothing going on but they kept it and the kids were like acting like a bunch of squirrely grammar school kids

20:27 It was unbelievable to me the way this went down. They've trained the youth of America, the college youth to be the same, so cowering... horrible you know afraid of their own shadow but let's shake the fist at the man kind of thing. And here is a report this is long report two minutes but you have to imagine the scene cops in big groups running around like the Keystone Cops just ridiculous and buncha kids are scouring on there knees. With David Muir

21:05 Good evening and we begin tonight with those two hours of terror at UCLA in Los Angeles. Authorities say a shooter taking deadly aim and then killing himself, triggering a massive lockdown. Heavily armed police flooding the hallways in the buildings on campus searching from room to room for the gunman. Students trapped inside and you can see them setting up makeshift barricades with whatever they could find The students who were outside were told to get down and put their hands up as their backpacks, where then searched one by one this afternoon. Tonight authorities have not released the name of the suspect but there is word of a note possibly left behind at ABC's Kane and Whitworth is on the scene for us

21:44 Gunfire erupting on campus. Around 10 o'clock this morning a report of a shooting occurred here on the UCLA campus. Police flooded with calls after shots ring out in an engineering building at UCLA. Hundreds of officers swarm the area, rifles drawn. Fears of a possible gunman on campus. Thousands of students in classes taking final exams now told to shelter in place. Dozens trapped inside the building I heard somebody yell, everybody run. Escape! Run! There's a... and then I heard commotion in the crowd people were saying they saw an assault rifle Some barricading themselves inside propping tables against doors tying printer cords to door handles using belts anything they could find to stay safe We just bolted out of there And ran up to the 7th floor of one of the buildings and then hid in the bathroom for like an hour and half Two straight major incident in facility division The city is on technical alert status

22:41 Other area schools on lockdown while the UCLA campus is searched. SWAT teams seen inside the hallway of this building on surveillance cameras going door to door Officers finding two male victims with gunshot wounds, a gun and note found nearby. After two hours of chaos police announcing that shooting is murder-suicide each student is cleared one by one told to drop to their knees with their hands up Wow did they have to spread their cheeks? Final search by police And Kena Whitworth is with us live tonight Kena what are investigators telling you

23:21 Well, David I just was able to speak with them and they're telling me their next step here is to figure out who this shooter is. They will be searching their apartment and scrubbing their social media accounts And in the meantime this engineering building behind me remains a crime scene Wait a minute Why do they have to scrub their social media accounts? Is that now standard operating procedure I have no idea what she said. She may misspoke, I think she may have meant they're gonna go over it and find the evidence but maybe they are going to erase it. It's possible that you mentioned...I didn't pick that up but could be operating you know there is get this guy out there contentious anybody else tries to do something like this we don't give him any impetus

24:06 I have an ISO by the way, he's having an ISO from the thing. Which i think is useful. Let me try it out. So here we have a pathetic situation created by the modern environment. How about zeitgeist? Zeitgeist, a bunch of cowering get on your knees put up with the crap you know and this is unbelievable unbelievable Speaking of... And just the visuals were just like, and the number of police. This is somebody should you know if you can find some way to rob a bank during one of these things Oh that's time to do it yeah I'm sure There's every cop in the country is did and they had to stay there for two hours They couldn't add 2-in-2 there was never no shooting there was nothing going on

24:59 So they had to terrorize the kids. What I think happened was they found two dead guys and then they said, you know we might as well turn this into an exercise. Yeah since were here Since were here. Since were here. Terrorized the kids. Oh there's one hiding in the bathroom for an hour-and-a-half cowering in the bathroom sheltering in place Unbelievable Well speaking of scrubbing It seems the thing I would do, by the way. I know these campuses—I've been to UCLA—you leave the building and you just take off! You go... You leave get in your car and go? Yeah, just get out of there it's not that hard to do. People are terrorized John particularly the kids have just been terrorized hello this is known fact okay State Department speaking of scrubbing

State Department Video Editing and Transparency Issues

Rear Admiral John Kirby addressed the deliberate removal of a three-minute segment from a 2013 State Department press briefing video regarding Iran nuclear negotiations. While Kirby admitted an editor received a request to excise the footage, he stated no formal investigation would be pursued because no rules against such edits existed at the time. The incident has raised significant questions about government transparency and the archiving of public records.

state department· john kirby· iran negotiations· jen psaki· video editing· transparency

25:51 I know you probably saw this, but the little ditty we talked about a month ago? About a missing 3 minute video from the State Department. Oh right! Yes this is hilarious. This was regarding... what's her name.. Not V- not Newland, because Newland was the one that had lied. And then... what was it? Was it Jen? Jen Psaki? I thought it was Newland No but there was Jen Psaki who lied about her and then that was removed from the videotape although it was at the time Then we're gonna listen to that in a second It was deemed a glitch! It was just a glitch! Just a glitch! And you recall Matt Lee who is not here for the unfolding of the truth

26:37 was really hounding, it was Elizabeth Kennedy Trudeau actually who was covering up. No no just a glitch just a glitch anyway Mr Kirby Admiral Rear Admiral Kirby comes out. Can I say something before? Of course! You don't have to ask. Kirby... well you have to interrupt somehow Kirby, I saw him doing some... there was some other event with him. Have you seen that binder? You know the binder they always have a binder? Yes! It actually comes up in one of these clips it's huge The thing is the size is unbelievably big It is the biggest binder I have never seen a binder this big He has to use two hands to turn to another topic

27:18 It's unbelievable. And this topic was so big he actually has to stop to use two hands to turn the page and gets interrupted because I thought it was done So again recalling that this was a cover-up of a lie And this came to a head as Kirby just... He did receive a question about this, but I'm going to presume that was a setup question. Oh yes! Thank you for asking me that. I almost forgot. Well he didn't here's his... It was a long segment but i'm gonna give you just a couple pieces of it Here is the statement. As many of you know and I want be specific on this one so I am gonna refer my notes a little bit. As many of you know and some have brought to our attention

28:00 A portion of the State Department's December 2nd, 2013 press briefing was missing from the video that we posted on our YouTube account and on our website. That missing portion covered a series of questions about U.S. negotiations with Iran When alerted to this, I immediately directed the video to be restored in its entirety with a full and complete copy that exists – and had existed since the day of the briefing on the Defense Video and Imagery Distribution System website otherwise known as DVIDS. I also verified that the full transcript of the briefing which we also post on our website was intact and had been so since the date of the briefing. I asked the Office of the Legal Advisor to look at this including

28:45 a look at any rules that we had in place. In so doing, they learned that a specific request was made to excise that portion of the briefing We do not know who made the request to edit the video or why it was made To my surprise, the Bureau of Public Affairs did not have in place any rules governing this type of action. Therefore we are taking immediate steps to craft appropriate protocols on this issue as we believe that deliberately removing a portion of the video was not and is not in keeping with the State Department's commitment to transparency and public accountability." No shit! I'm not, let me just finish. Sorry, sorry. I got a little bit more? No? It was a dramatic pause. I was just turning the page! See there it is his huge binder

29:31 Specifically, we are going to make clear that all video and transcripts from daily press briefings will be immediately and permanently archived in their entirety. And that in the unlikely event that narrow compelling circumstances require edits to be made such as the inadvertent release of privacy protected information they will only be made with express permission of the Assistant Secretary of State for Public Affairs and with an appropriate level of annotation and disclosure I have communicated this new policy my staff it takes effect immediately Okay, so I'm to the glitch. Well we'll get into that in a moment it was it wasn't a glitch that was a lie but the what Kirby is saying Is someone called up now? This is the pub the PA the public affairs department It's not that big in the State Department. I'm sure there's 40 50 people But it's not that big So he's gonna go into little more detail here to explain exactly what happened, but I'll set it up for you somebody called to the

30:30 somebody who was responsible for the videos and said, we need somebody else in public affairs who is of authority says you have to edit this to their out. Which by the way if you remember the little skit we did at that time it was exactly that way Hey, so-and-so wants a cutout. Yeah no problem what do we do? It's a jump cut I just put a flash in which is exactly what happened. Exactly what happened of course the question is who did this? Who did the edit now they've talked to the person who did the edit who was unnamed We don't even know if the person was inside the public affairs agency but I presume he was or she was

31:10 We do not know who asked for the element. They call them over at the grammar school They got a hold of him the grammar school exactly they Do not know who asked nor the person who was mentioned as the authority? For which it should be done and No need to investigate because and this is a beautiful line I Strangely, we have no rules about this stuff. Can't believe it! How about falsifying government documentation? Wouldn't you say that adheres here?" I would say no. I don't think this is falsifying anything. This is just taking something out. Okay. If they put something in that was bullcrapped, then I'd say that would be falsified but there's not falsehood if you just remove excise something

32:01 really falsifying anything. Well, it's certainly not transparent but he sees no reason for an investigation I think it'd be worthwhile to investigate that Oh no! No, you know he says it is NOT worthwhile Because HE'S the one Yeah Do you know when the edit or cut occurred? Cut. Was it some point afterwards? Or was it the same day? To the best of our knowledge, the edit was done on the same day And how do you know that it was deliberately removed as you said As I understand that request was made again back in 2013 over the phone The recipient of the call who is one of the editors does not remember They have editors interesting What did editor's do

32:52 Edit. The edit, so this doesn't seem like an isolated incident as far as I'm concerned but okay that's just me maybe reading too much into it. The editor does not remember anything other than the caller was passing on a request from somewhere else in the bureau and are you doing any... Well hold on a second stop there's an implication here Yeah, that this situation must happen more often than not if you can't recall. Oh yeah, it was a one-off oh yeah this comes up don't worry the press was asking questions in fact someone asked questions they never just never reported why bother? In the bureau and are you doing any

33:30 I mean, as you said there was no rules about this but are you nevertheless investigating further to figure out who did this and why? The short answer is no. As I said there were no rules in place at the time to govern this sort of action so while i believe it was an inappropriate step to take... I'll say! ...I see little foundation for pressing forward with a formal investigation. Oh wow bro- Why bother?! Why bother now!? Luckily, the girl from CNN was in the room and just a little bit because she got pretty excited. And I liked it. It's a little strange somebody said the person you spoke to admitted cutting it from the tape and said somebody they can't remember told them to do that

34:09 They didn't know their position, how senior they were. Have any indication of their authority to ask them that? And then they just said well I did it but somebody I can't remember told me to do it. That seems a little fishy right? The recipient doesn't remember anything other than that the caller was passing on a request from somewhere else in the Bureau and That's, that is the most information we were able to gain. Wait wait wait you said I'm sorry i don't remember if you've said this before but you said a request was made from someone in the Bureau so it was made from someone in PA? Was, the recipient of the call doesn't remember anything other than

34:50 The caller, the individual who called this technician was passing on a request from someone else in the Public Affairs Bureau. a one-of-a kind request and would the editor forget of one of a kind? There's your question. I mean, as I understand you're saying you are not aware if any other occasions... All I can do is tell what the individual... Humming a humming a humming. ...could remember. I mean, I can't do more than that again this happened three years ago. Did the legal advisor ask other than top officials in PA whether they made that request

35:26 I'm not going to get into the specific details. But it does go to how thorough the investigation on this was. This wasn't an investigation, remember at least there were no rules governing this. Just because- John, John just because there were no rules governing taking out a public briefing and editing it doesn't mean that it was the right thing to do so I'm sorry that there were no rules but I don't really think that you know just because there's no rules on certain things And you've said from this podium there was no rule on Secretary Clinton not using emails, but it was the wrong thing to do. So I don't think that... And as I said, I don't find this to be the appropriate step to have taken either. No! But I asked the Office of the Legal Advisor to look into this and they did? What the hell is the Office of the Legal Advisor? Is that like a secretary who just says nah, no investigation needed? What's the office of the legal advisor

36:19 The office of the legal advisors obviously the cover your ass go yeah, that's what it is So you go in there where you go into the legal? Office of the legal advisor which means there's a legal advisor inside somewhere so you don't actually go knock and talk to the door You actually go in and talk to the legal adviser not the office of legal adviser well Maybe just talked to the office. You don't know I gotta take this guy's word nobody does anybody here No, I'm asking a question to the office. There you go! I think that's pretty much it You gotta take these people at their word Emails but it was the wrong thing to do so...I don't think that And as I said I don't find this to be the appropriate step to have taken either

36:58 But I asked the office of the legal advisor to look into this. They did, they pursued it for me and we got about as far as we can go. The individual who took the call doesn't remember anything more than that it was being passed on from somebody else in the Public Affairs Bureau. I don't...I cannot be any more specific than that right now. Well at the time he wasn't there but I'm pretty sure it was either Psaki or Newland But maybe they sent little, uh... flute girl out. You never know Bandcamp girl Maybe? Then maybe they made her do it Now what I did last night is that went and found the clip we played originally Let me see if i have a date on this when we actually played this Hold on Although I edited it may not have the original date No, I don't have the original date Anyway Oh yes! May 11th Yeah so that's three weeks ago

CHAPTER 10 / 47 Discussion

DVIDS Repository and Hillary Clinton's Secret Negotiations

The State Department's use of the DVIDS repository for video archiving is scrutinized following the "glitch" that removed sensitive Iran negotiation footage. It is suggested the edit was made to prevent the footage from being indexed by search algorithms. Speculation is raised regarding a potential link between these secret negotiations and a rumored helicopter crash involving Hillary Clinton.

dvids· hillary clinton· iran· search algorithms· john kirby· state department

37:55 In hindsight, it's very interesting to hear this bit from the substitute spokeshole which is Elizabeth Kennedy Trudeau. Because it sheds a little bit of light on I think there are some clues in here one is who did the actual edit? And two, why the edit was done. I believe we can deduce this from her words from May 11th. The transcript of that daily press briefing and video was always available. Transcript was on state.gov. The video was available on other sites. There was a glitch in the State Department video when Fox flagged it for us. We actually replaced it with a video from Divvids which is the military repository where a lot of news media gets...

38:41 I believe that this happened to Divvids. And, I've been subscribed to Divvids for many years. That's where I get most of my Pentagon videos from but they also do State Department videos and i'm thinking...I have not looked at it yet. I didn't have time to look into all the work they do but everyone keeps saying Divvids who gives a shit where you got the original fund from? Who cares! But they keep saying divids, divids. Yeah they keep saying that when you start hearing stuff something like that it's a red flag There is a reason for it I'm pretty sure of that happened at Divids and maybe someone one of our producers can help us with that but I think thats probably service they offer and I am pretty sure they got the call A repository where a lot of news media gets its video The whole video was there And we also annotated on our YouTube channel

39:30 Notice she's saying annotated it. Is there any indication that you've since you'd since this was brought to your attention, I guess yesterday Yeah Have you discovered that the it was? Altered at all is not to my knowledge and there was a missing portion of it We pulled it from another online source that I'm trying to figure out how exactly the portion I you know what It's something we're looking into It is. We've changed our procedures and this is so technical. Remember, remember when she said it's just so technical? We've changed our procedures. This is so technical but here comes the next clue. Changed our procedures and this is so technical and forgive me for this we've changed our procedures on that but we are taking a look at it you know certainly transparency and getting information to you guys not only here in the briefing room but on the web and searchable is a priority for us

40:23 Searchable is a priority for us. That's what's going on They annotate all these videos Then they did not want this particular piece searchable and maybe they were even maybe they're even talking about you know some of the video searchable algorithms that go out there look at Closed caption and use that for search results Yeah, it could be now I'm pretty sure that's what it is That's why they did it They did not want someone to be able to Google this and get that piece of video. That was the idea, because they have the hits! They get the hits as State Department you know it's the primary source they get all the top hits now we have the video again yes the video is back and just comes back to one point that we keep looking at why was this so important? Why did they not want this being turning up in search results why do they ask presumably Divids to edit that piece out

41:25 It's a trail to the Hillary Clinton plane crash during these secret Iran negotiations. At least that's one theory. Yeah, do we have it to play again? The missing piece... No you don't have to play it no but all that is apparent is there were secret negotiations Around the time that the timeline that we've received right. That's where Hillary conked her head Yes, that now it now by the way I've got another source of this its claims It was a helicopter crash ooh That would make sense that seems a lot more survivable for one or two and getting rattled Yeah Wow, that's a good source yeah the helicopter guy

42:12 He says was a helicopter was a digger sort of puddle jumping from place to place and something happened, huh? Well that's interesting okay now. I'll have to go well producers get on the stick get on the stick people We need to figure this one out Okay, well that was good. I like that yeah Yeah, well it I'm also just a style anything with Kirby This guy is so unsuited for this job truly is you know tip of the classic? I can't imagine what an admiral Knowing the way that the Navy operates and the kind of egos that are involved in captaining and admiraling in the Navy, to take this sort of demeaning job... And I'm sure he sees it as a girl's job.

43:03 He has to yeah, he seems like one of those dudes and he looks like that kind of a dude dude And then he has got to be beside himself with this job. That's why he's got that big binder because it's so insecure I am they have all their written. I mean he was reading everything I mean if you see when Saki or one of the one of the women know what they're doing in that job When they had come out with their binder They just have like a little binders like about two 1-inch three ring binders. He's got this thing of his is about six, seven inches thick. Yeah it is. People should look at that because its the dangerous thing to say. Well while we're on that then we might as well talk about people having problems with public speaking and this is probably the worst I've ever heard it our very own president who was trying

CHAPTER 11 / 47 Discussion

Barack Obama's Speech Stammer and "Okie-Doke" Reference

President Barack Obama's recent speech patterns are analyzed, with the hosts suggesting his long pauses are a technique to manage a latent stutter. During a speech criticizing Donald Trump, Obama used the term "okie-doke," which is identified as slang for a trick or a fake-out. The segment includes a musical remix of the President's stammering.

barack obama· stuttering· okie-doke· speech patterns· donald trump

43:57 Well, what the news media would say is SLAM! Donald Trump. But he did it without the teleprompter. Oh man that did not work out well Have you seen this? I've heard it Yeah So we'll play it again and this... I think our record producers out there who like to give us little ditties will get something out of this Oh gee wouldn't be funny if they already had something Oh Okay that surprised me Just a little ditty Now, this is the first time I've really understood the president is a stammerer or stutter. That's not like we didn't know that. He's a stutterer yes and then he... And all of a sudden I saw dealt with. I've been in contact with a lot of stutterers in my life because it's very akin to Tourette's as a whole bunch of overlap

44:50 Then I know a lot of the training, which is mainly breathing exercises that people go through to alleviate that in speech. And for the first time it really hit me... Oh my God! The president is doing exercises to stop stuttering? That's what the long pauses are for. They're really long pause he has to do an exercise- He has to compose himself. Yes or prepare himself for the next utterance and this is probably why he always has been on teleprompter He has an issue. It's like walking and chewing gum, I think it is difficult for him Anyway just listen to this it was the worst I've ever heard If we turn against each other based on divisions of race or religion if we fall for a bunch

45:43 Breathe. Okie doke? Okie doke! Just because it, you know... Oh man he can't do it. Breathe. It sounds funny or the tweets are provocative then we're not gonna build on the progress that we started It seems to be certain it seems to be certain words too that are difficult for him. Well, it seems to me one of them Man oh man that is so that's I mean poor guy that's out of control That's that's pretty bad If we fall for

46:27 Now you consider yourself to be a stutterer, or stammer. I've never been a stutterer. No, stammer but it's breathing that is really breath control or at least that's what I've always learned but man this is so bad. Well we had a bad stutterer on the Oaken Raiders who was a cornerback. For some reason his name's not coming to me immediately, but he was horrible and they would occasionally get on the air and it was like... He couldn't say anything! You just couldn't get anything out of him. And so we went to some local vocal guy who dealt with stutterers and with feedback training

47:12 And this guy's theory was that stutterers, the real problem that they have is- They don't hear themselves. No their brain is going ahead of it too fast. They're thinking too fast so they can't slow down. Oh that's possible! That would make sense Well I would say with this cornerback Lester Hayes because he was just a fast... you know jumpy these guys are... Wired! position. So he was a horrible stutterer, but the guy claims that the brain goes so fast they can't catch up to their thoughts or too slow and so they had constantly trying to back up and that's what his theory was And with feedback training where they put him you know with headphones and then made them listen to themselves and this changed when thing came across it's like listening

48:07 Now you don't think this could be induced by some amphetamines, maybe Adderall or something else? You could be a little wired. More wireline perhaps... I dunno! What is an okey-doke? Is that the reference i'm missing? An okey-doke? I think what it refers to is a It refers to, I think it's an old southern term and it refers to like... Okie doke. Must be Hawaiian John. Yeah could be. Making a move on somebody you're kind of like faked out You're faked out! I think its like a fake-out. Hmmmm. Doing the okie doke. Like hey im over here Im over there. I see. Okie doke. I just have too uhhhh... Book of Knowledge!

48:57 Definition of okey-doke. Hmm, yeah okay I'm not sure what you meant by that question. Yeah i know You're an idiot. Useless! You're an idiot She is useless Hey urban dictionary okey doke Let's see Someone oh okay someone who has been tricked or duped Yeah okey doke a trick alright Alright Okey doke if we fall Okie doke, just because it sounds funny or provocative. The tweets are a bunch of okie doke. Thanks Obama! I know it was put together hastily from J Moon but I like that we have something topical good we need more It's beautiful piece and I'll put the ISO in the show notes for

49:58 for those who need it if we fall for poor guy feel bad for him well so we have a bunch of since we're talking about trump and oh should we take a break if we're going to go into election news will be way late with the segment okay well I can take a break. I'm all in, Well with that I'd like to thank you for your courage then and say in the morning to you John C with us he where the C stands for Kokedoke Dvorak. Well, in the morning to you Mr Adam Curry also in the morning all ships and sea boots on the ground subs in the water feet in the air and all the dames and knights out there In the morning to our producers everyone checking in on the live stream in the chat room that would be noagendastream.com thank you very much for your courage this morning And thank you once again to Mark G

CHAPTER 12 / 47 Discussion

Podcast Album Art Standards and Apple's Implementation

The importance of attractive, symbolic album art for podcast episodes is discussed, highlighting the work of producer Mark G. The technical side of podcasting is addressed, specifically how Apple often fails to support its own patented standards for per-episode album art within its podcasting app.

album art· rss· apple podcasts· podcasting standards· mark g

50:51 Mark G brought us the album art for episode 829. It was one of the most beautiful pieces and so well received Yeah, mark g also said he sent he did he sent a note He wanted some karma I believe a job karma So here's a guy who is this good? And people went out of their way to specifically tweet send emails etc how much they like this art And I was reading his, he posted on the Bag Group or somewhere else maybe on the tweeters. He said that he likes the challenge of coming up with artwork before the end of the show it keeps his skills sharp and this guy's a pro! Yeah and what we like about it when we go over this art

51:40 And what we like about his stuff, and there's other people that do the same thing but he does a very good job of symbolic representation. That is dimensionality as corny as that sounds. That's exactly what we talk about this sort of thing and for sure we had two or three levels in there that were interesting and it had a lot of meaning And it's attractive. That's one of the main things. It also, it just jumps off of the page when I tweeted that link and always put the album art in the tweet. They just jumped right off the page is so good! So good! And I should mention that I want to reiterate the attractiveness of certain art and

52:22 Because we reject, there's a lot of good art that is funny. It's got dimensionality it's got all these things that we look for but its unattractive you know something gruesome its got like blood or some big tongue coming out of a spit spittled mouth Its just not attractive and something that would put off putting and there's alot of artists some of the artists not alot but theres enough to produce that sort of thing And then somebody by the way is going to put in a joke piece in this today I can tell already. Of course A devil or something Hello Nick the Rat, good morning

53:00 There's no way we're gonna pick those pieces because it deters. They are supposed to be attractive. It is supposed to be advertising! Yes, this is a form of advertising and its gotta be attractive. Its gotta attract people And maybe one of these days all the podcatcher apps out there will actually support the standardized per episode album art. It is a standard people What? Yes, you might as well implement it. Are you telling me that the standardized art... The protocol that you use which is a standard is not picked up by all these podcatch things? I will say that now most fields in RSS

53:43 are optional. You only need four fields, I believe for it to be a valid RSS but the podcast extensions is added by Apple and patented as such. I'm actually mentioning the patents not that i get any money They added all of these capabilities interestingly enough the largest offender of not showing episode album art...is Apple! Yeah. Their own tags! It's pretty funny. No, no it's sad is what it is. Well that's pretty funny as far as I'm concerned. Anyway he wants a Jobs Karma and uh...

CHAPTER 13 / 47 Discussion

Dame Elise's Limoncello and Farmed Salmon Quality

Dame Elise, a producer from Alaska, sent the hosts a batch of homemade limoncello. The conversation shifts to the fishing season in Bristol Bay and the difference between wild-caught and farmed salmon. Farmed salmon is criticized for its "white goo" discharge and squeaky texture compared to the mild flavor of real salmon.

54:25 These things typically do work out so let us know how that goes and for you mark G And we appreciate you for your courage jobs Jobs jobs and jobs. Let's vote for jobs You've got karma nice Can I do one more one more thing is to Dame Elise the hot Our hot fisher chick up there in Alaska? Oh, our fisher chick. Yeah! Did you get your new bottle? No. Oh... She sent a- I just got my copy of the Hillary book from uh... Sir D.H. Slammer

55:05 I actually got two. Somebody else sent me one too and I couldn't figure out who, and they sent me...I don't know if DH...I couldn't tell who was who because they just unmarked boxes from Amazon but one of them...so I got three of these books now One of them incorporated a toy Hillary doll Oh no! You had a bonus? Sweet Now, but anyway Dame Elise Garling sent myself and Tina a bottle of her coveted homemade limoncello. And I have to admit I had a little sip. Oh man! It's probably the best batch she's ever made Wow it's really that good Really that good Let me see if she said anything else on her note Packing up to leave Washington State for another fishing season in Bristol Bay

55:56 I'll try and save you some smoked salmon this year. Yeah, you always promise that Damelies. Smoked Salmon? You wind up scarfing it yourself. Yeah... She makes pretty good money catching salmon! Well, salmon's a good business. Especially up there and people like salmon and the real salmon that we're talking about that she gets compared to the crap that most people eat called Salmon which is really farmed salmon You can tell here's their little tip for people out there with color pellets There are two things it was farmed salmon you besides of things artificially colored It when you cook it a bunch of white goo comes The most disgusting thing! You've seen that right?

56:37 It's been a while since I don't eat that. This white goo comes out and it tastes like, I don't know what it is... And then when you chew the salmon, it has this kind of an overly...it's like a turkey flavor. It's over-the-top salmony which is not attractive. Good salmon is mild. It's not like salmony. and stinks. It stinks, it's got this white goo and when you chew it makes a squeaking sound in your mouth when it squeaks when you try to bite it. Squeak, squeak, squeak... It's a horrible product So you have real salmon, which you have to catch. It's a delightful product. Can I just say that now thank you for that? Now we need to put a trigger warning on this podcast there are a lot of children today who cannot handle that description of salmon you just gave they will not be able to handle that content warning. They won't eat the salmon either no that's good news. That is disgusting so we thank Dame Elise for that

57:37 And we'll see. She'll keep us in touch with how the fishing is going anyway Thank you. All right, we have a few people to thank including Sir Richard Moffett in Milwaukee Wisconsin who came in with his birthday 5-31-31 Kershlam and that is his birthday he was born in 1931 so he is what? 85 yeah just getting started He's 85 and he's listening there's this big show listening did send him the note handwritten Hold on a second how can this guy not be a ham radio operator He's perfect.

Memorial Day Misconceptions and Media Coverage

The hosts criticize the general public and media for confusing Memorial Day with Veterans Day. They argue that the holiday should focus exclusively on honoring those who died in military service, rather than living veterans, and criticize the Google Doodle and news anchors for missing this distinction.

Google their little doodle on the front was all about saluting servicemen and women but it's egregious That is egregious. If anything, you'd have a picture of Arlington Cemetery or something that would be more appropriate... No no!

Polling Industry Pre-Excusing Election Prediction Failures

An article from The Hill suggests that pollsters are already expressing doubt about their ability to accurately predict the Trump-Clinton election due to high unfavorable ratings. The hosts interpret this as the polling industry "pre-excusing" future failures or potential fraud, following their failure to predict the rise of Donald Trump.

1:06:53 Devorak.org slash N-A Hey, you can always be helping us out simple thing just go out there propagate our formula Our formula is this we go out We hit people in the mouth Shut up So when I started the computer for the show, it brings up the MSN News and there's a story that cropped right up immediately. Which i have to mention because its one of our thematic things And the headline is from The Hill Doubts creep into Trump Clinton polls Oh no! Now listen to this, this is hilarious

1:07:43 And this obviously comes from the pollsters. Doubts are creeping in among opinion pollsters over how accurately they'll be able to predict a presidential election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. This sounds like Nate Silver from FiveThirtyEight who's backtracking on all his horrible predictions... The two prospective nominees' high unfavorable ratings and their fame means pollsters are facing one of their most... Wait, now I want you to give me the logic of this. Okay! The two prospective nominees' high unfavorable ratings and their fame means pollsters are facing one of the most difficult tasks in conducting polls that correctly model who will vote in November's election. Why?

1:08:26 Why? I don't know. Why? I don't know! As many people are likely to come into the polls this fall, they vote against the candidate they dislike as to vote for the candidate they support something that makes polling difficult Really?! What does that make polling difficult? Why does it make it difficult? All they need is... I'll tell you what this is This whole article is about pre-excusing the screw ups that will come during this season because the polling is bullcrap. Well, hold on, no I disagree it's pre-excusing themselves a form of moral self licensing

1:09:03 It's pre-excusing themselves for the fraud they are going to commit. That's what it is. Yeah, well that's kind of what I'm saying... That's different now because we just got through the media soul searching how could we have not seen Trump coming? How oh! We didn't do our job. We didn't ask tough questions and And now they said, you know screw it. We're just punting on this because the whole past three days was just Trump University Donald Trump's not rich Donald Trump's a fraud he's a freaking fraud that's so they are apologizing for the non-news they are once again about to spew onto us Yeah yeah That is what its gonna happen Yeah It's nuts I have good news though

Austin Bug-Eating Festival and Cricket Flour

The 9th annual Austin Bug-Eating Festival is taking place, promoting the consumption of insects as a future food source. One of the hosts plans to attend and sample various bugs, including crickets and potentially cockroaches, to report back on the experience.

Artificial Intelligence Skepticism and B12 Supplements

A discussion about a dinner with an "Obot" (Obama supporter) leads to a critique of the hype surrounding Artificial Intelligence, which the hosts argue is mostly just APIs. Concerns are raised about a host's recent forgetfulness, which is jokingly attributed to a lack of B12 supplements.

artificial intelligence· api· b12· memory loss· futurism

1:11:28 But we went to fix so it was also not a home-cooked meal, so was it the setting wasn't right and you were that was just a dinner. No that was right but I Will say that the belief by the obot That artificial intelligence is not only going to save our lives but is around the corner is pretty unbelievable How'd that get there? That's her new thing You know, there's this futurist... But anybody that works in technology and is serious and actually takes it seriously knows this is a crock of crap. Yeah well I'm just a Nazi about the definition you know artificial intelligence It's just.. In fact I have a new term There's no such thing as AI only API I think we coined that on the last show And yeah then that's the difference Alright well I am disappointed So am I John so am I

1:12:27 I have to say it was a very enjoyable evening. We just had a good time No, well i'm sorry to hear that You should never ask i'll set it up if i got something ah no sometimes you forget you forget things Let's go to this hold on what do you mean? I forget things stop stop the show all right All right, I gotta talk about this now okay talk all right For about six weeks I've been receiving emails, noticed myself and have heard from other people in my surrounding concerned that you are forgetting things. And I brought this up after the show on Thursday

1:13:12 And I, you know it's horrible to have to say to someone hey man you're getting kind of forgetful what's going on. In fact uh...I thought to myself well i can just tell ask him and he won't remember anyway so it's not a problem but I said what's been going on this is the past six weeks? You know but I'm afraid that the B12 is actually working the-is doing harm! To which you replied I haven't been taking it for the last six weeks So I think it's proof. Did you find did you go back and find your bottle no? I'll find out where it is. I've sent you a bottle now through Amazon.

Child Calls 911 on Father for Traffic Violation

A six-year-old boy in Quincy, Massachusetts, called 911 to report his father for running a red light. The hosts find the story distressing, viewing it as a sign of a society where children are encouraged to "rat out" their parents to authorities, comparing it to environmental reporting programs.

911· quincy massachusetts· traffic violation· family betrayal· parenting

1:14:11 Yeah, I think it does work. Let's see... Well! It is time to- Well, I got an entremet I was going to play before you rudely interrupted me with this commentary. That's not r- I didn't rudely interrupt you? I want to play this little thing. Alright This is a- I think an indictment of society But nobody played it that way. Everybody played it soft. Oh, this is so funny! This is so funny oh ho ho and maybe the little kid should become a cop because he's on top of things. This is the clip Little Boy Fink calls 911 on dad. Finally tonight here The Little Boy who might have a future in law enforcement He called 9-1-1 about a driver who ran a red light His dad Here's Clayton Sandell

1:15:01 This is a story of family betrayal. Um, dad he went past a red light. Yeah? That is six-year old Robbie Richardson of Quincy Massachusetts calling police to rat out his own dad! A traffic scofflaw! And then what happened? And then we just... and you had to go through the car wash and then he went past the red light He did?! Mmhmm Is he home right now? Yeah Can I talk to him? Yeah Hello? Hi Quincy Police Oh no, I am just here to apologize that my son I'm about to show you man in red light. Oh no, I apologize. No problem, just get this all set." The investigation complete the cops decide to let Robbie's dad off the hook. Clearly Robbie's parents taught him well maybe a little too well Clayton Sandel ABC News. This is fine you know what's next? You know what's coming my parents are hurting the earth

1:16:05 They're only making global warming happen. They're leaving all the lights on, they leave the air conditioner on report then we'll have special numbers you can call and report to your parents." I like the idea yeah! Yeah well a special number. Now this kid learned at six...at age of six he called 911 now by the way the real problem is gonna call 9-1-1 constantly or unless it gets punched out by the dad. Lots of kids are going do that now and they will be reporting all kinds of interesting things Hello, and my daddy's kissing some other lady. Exactly. Oops! That is where the end of this goes. None of this is good. I just found this to be distressing yeah and I brought it up a few I don't know maybe three or four shows ago I mentioned how when you go through airport security you always tell the kids not to say anything right because of this sort of thing now you gotta shut up just shut up

FDA Approval of Candy-Flavored ADHD Medication

The FDA has approved candy-flavored amphetamines, specifically gummy bear-style medication, for children with ADHD. The hosts criticize this move as a way for the pharmaceutical industry to make powerful drugs more appealing to children and their parents.

fda· adhd· amphetamines· gummy bears· pharmaceutical industry

1:16:58 Is it okay for my daddy to have a bunch of art prints that aren't antiques? He's got them in the suitcase. Well, there is good news for parents with children like this We now have the FDA approving candy flavored amphetamines for kids so their ADHD medication comes in the form of a gummy bear And this has been approved. This has been approved by the FDA! Ah, yes... That's our FDA. They're just doing- they're looking out for number one. Them. Themselves and their buddies in the pharmaceutical industry Yeah absolutely. Absolutely. That's creepy though man yeah I thought it was the creepiest clip i have. Well let's talk about uh let's do a little oh yes

CHAPTER 22 / 47 Discussion

Hillary Clinton's Robotic Media Responses and FBI Inquiry

Hillary Clinton's responses to questions about the FBI's email investigation are analyzed. By overlaying audio from two different interviews on MSNBC and CNN, the hosts demonstrate that Clinton uses identical, word-for-word scripts to pivot from the investigation to attacking Donald Trump, describing her performance as "robotic."

hillary clinton· fbi· msnbc· cnn· media spin· word-for-word

1:17:54 Okay, here's something. Now we know that the Democratic Party...the elites inside the Democratic Party will take Hillary Clinton's brain in a jar in the Oval Office. That's all they want ultimately and I was listening to a couple of clips. I'm going to play the first one and well you know I'll explain it after I play this first one this is uh Clinton And she's answering some questions. Oh yes, this is about the FBI contacting her because now of course we've had all kinds... Oh yeah she's good at this hanging around Well she uses a little word trick and so I need to ask you if you have been contacted by the FBI about an interview regarding the email situation No, we do not have an interview scheduled

1:18:41 Oops, oops. Yeah the question was have you been contacted by the FBI and she's so beautiful instead of saying no we have not been contacted by the FBI she has but the interview is not scheduled yet So then you can say know that we do not have an interview scheduled yet Oh that was very good Oh, she's dynamite at it but she is also a robot and I'm going to have to prove that And the rules were not clarified until after I had left. But as I said many times, Chris it was still a mistake if I could go back I would do it differently and I understand people who have concerns about it but I hope voters look at the full picture of everything I've done in my career and actually the full threat posed by a Donald Trump presidency because if they do I have faith in the American people that they will make the right choice

1:19:46 Okay, so that is Hillary Clinton in under one minute taking a question about being contacted by the FBI and lying about it or not really lying just futzing her way out of it. And then spinning into Donald Trump as evil and you got to vote for me She did two calls. Here's the second one, and this is where I started to catch on to the cadence which you've alerted us too many times USA Today called this quote a threat to national security One that she repeatedly ignored despite multiple warnings And they added that you are now quote going to have to convince voters That she can put the national security of the United States above her own short-term Self interest do you see? This is a challenge that you have to face to convince voters You'll put national security ahead of your own interests

1:20:32 Well, I think that is obvious. I always have and the report just to go back to the actual report makes it clear that personal email use was a practice under other secretaries of state and at the rules they are now referencing were not clarified until after i had left But look, I said many times it was still a mistake and if i could go back I would do it differently. And I understand people may have concerns about this but I hope voters look at the full picture of everything I've done in my career and the full threat posed by a Donald Trump presidency and if they do I have faith in the American people that they will make the right choice here. Okay so besides the obvious lying which we'll get into in a moment with Judge Andrew Napolitano

1:21:24 When I heard this, and she only made two calls. One to MSNBC, I think and one to CNN. And when I hear the pitch into voting for her be careful about Donald Trump...and my god this woman is a robot! It is exactly the same word-for-word And so I put them together. And I understand people who have been hurt by voters looking at the full picture of everything that I've done in my career, and actually the full threat posed by a Donald Trump presidency. Because if they do, I have faith in the American people that they will make the right choice here." And that was just laid next to each other! Wow! That is the tin pointer for the day!

1:22:23 How good is that, huh? That was dynamite. Especially the last bit. I'd give you a clip of the day but it's not really a clip of an analysis. Listen to the last end again. I am a robot! I am a robot. That's dynamite. Did you hear how it shifted? It went back and forth, but it was pretty much exactly the same Yeah And then it just nailed its first version like an echo then it did kind of drifted and they came right back together it converged yeah Yeah, well glad you liked that III whipped out my pro tools last night like holy crap actually put some work into it Then you produced it. I got what can I say oh

CHAPTER 23 / 47 Discussion

Judge Napolitano on Hillary Clinton's Email Deposition

Judge Andrew Napolitano breaks down the legal implications of Cheryl Mills' recent deposition. Key revelations include Clinton's use of a BlackBerry that was inoperable in the State Department, forcing her to leave her secure office to communicate. Napolitano argues this was a deliberate attempt to bypass the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and hide "shakedowns" related to the Clinton Foundation.

andrew napolitano· cheryl mills· brian pagliano· blackberry· foia· clinton foundation

1:23:04 I'm surprised some of these big boys didn't do that. Oh, please! Oh please... Alright here's Judge Napolitano with the real deal. It really helped it was going from the Cheryl Mills testimony that she gave a couple days ago right? That was put forward a couple days ago where she arrived with seven lawyers to make sure if she didn't say anything they would cause- Well they wouldn't let her answer half the questions that were put to her and the questions they wouldn't let her answer had to do with Brian Pagliano that a government issued BlackBerry because it was not government issues, it was blocked on the seventh floor of the State Department where her office is. What does that mean? That means that when she was in our office she did not have the means to communicate electronically to her people all around the world for the entire time she was there how did you do it take your security team go from the 7th floor to 6th floor were her blackberry so she had

1:24:12 get up and physically leave her office to go communicate, whether it's small or big story. Or she would have one of her aides come in and use you'll like this because your historian 19th century technology read the document to me Wow! Read it aloud so when people are saying she was incompetent as the Secretary of State they're absolutely correct and right on the mark because of this alone She has ambassadors all around the world trying to communicate with her and she's cut herself off. Alright, here are the four big things that you wanted us to go through that stood out with you because you did the hard work of reading all those pages. Hillary's emails got this only used a private server period never used a system from servers. Correct 100% of our emails were taken away from the government server and run through the private. The email is read on a Blackberry just went over that right? A blackberry inoperable in the State Department office he went through that emails not available

1:25:07 for the freedom of information. all of my emails. Cheryl Mills revealed in the deposition earlier this week it was not searchable, that they couldn't find this stuff because it had gone through Mrs. Clinton's private server. What does this mean? All of this means that she frustrated the ordinary operations of the State Department which she was in charge of because she was terrified of the President and the rest of the State Department

1:25:48 the media and the public knowing what she was doing. No, I don't think so. Judge she says this, Colin Powell did the same thing and they didn't really firm up these policies and procedures until after she left. That argument is directly rejected by the Inspector General of the State Department whose report came out a week ago today Secretary Powell you answered of

1:26:37 Obama. Yes, because his secretary of state was offline doing her own thing. You're exactly right it is crystal clear that the motivation for all of this was her incredible desire to avoid the Freedom of Information Act to keep from the president and rest of the State Department and public what she was doing as Secretary of State which is a violation of the law! There you go There you go. Yeah, she was shaking down companies to get them to cough up money to push over to the Clinton Foundation. Hell yeah! She was shaking down people left and right that's why she took so long to declare for the presidency because after she did that then she was gonna be under some scrutiny she couldn't do it a shakedown anymore

1:27:19 Look, I'm going to be president. I want some money! This is not a brand new idea or concept they had during the... who was it? The vice-president, that Greek guy. Yeah, Dukakis. No no no the guy who is actually the vice president he got kicked out of office under Nixon Spiro Agnew. Hey a spiro agnew was the vice president and he was taking cash bribes in his office from various corporations What's the problem? They just come in with a bag of money here! What's the problem I don't understand the issue

1:27:59 It's how it always worked. And so, well... I like the bag of cash. Nixon apparently had a briefcase with $1 million in it at one point. You know these guys are all corrupt but she is outrageous! Yeah and also explains why she couldn't do anything when Benghazi was hitting because she was not in communication Yeah, that's there is a fact. Let's listen to this clip This is from the intercept. This is the guy Leading this is the 250 million dollar wordpress blog from Pierre Oman Yadar drive my car It's got good stuff in it now okay? Don't kid yourself I wouldn't this is the dev Debbie was just what's going on with Clinton and Debbie Wasserman Schultz

CHAPTER 24 / 47 Discussion

Debbie Wasserman Schultz and DNC Lobbyist Rules

Debbie Wasserman Schultz is under fire for quietly repealing DNC ethics rules that previously prevented federal lobbyists from donating to the party. Reports suggest she provided lobbyists with a "menu of options" for influence at the upcoming convention, deepening the rift between the DNC and the Bernie Sanders campaign.

debbie wasserman schultz· dnc· lobbyists· bernie sanders· campaign finance

1:28:49 Right. There's been a lot of controversy about the leadership of Debbie Wasserman Schultz over the Democratic National Committee. One kind of contrast here is that, just as Obama pushed to reform the DNC—and when he became the nominee in 2008, he implemented ethics rules that prevented federal lobbyists from donating the DNC or to the party convention. Debbie Wasserman Schultz has quietly repealed those ethics rules, and now lobbyists can again donate to the party. And last fall, Debbie Wasserman Schultz actually convened a meeting with a number of lobbyists and reportedly

1:29:33 handed out a menu of options saying that if you give varying amounts of money, lobbyists can win certain types of influence at the convention. So the role of money in politics which has been a big campaign theme in the presidential primaries we're seeing that now come into focus with this tension between Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the Bernie Sanders campaign. And they haven't kicked her out yet? They're working on it, but I can just imagine her bringing all these lobbyists in and you do the same thing you'd do at these trade shows and conventions that are borderline corrupt. You have a menu set—you want to be a gold-platinum sponsor? You get this, this, this, and this, and this! And you get a banner, and you get this and that, and you want to be a silver— And you get a speaking slot. Yeah, right, then you got a couple of speaking slots. Slots. The whole thing is just massively corrupt

1:30:25 And of course, you know this is a Hillary. So okay and Debbie Wasserman Schultz should have been drummed out by now... I'm surprised that she's still in there's strife! Strife yeah and it's coming to a head i mean you know i listened to the Sirius 127 progressive channel the Hillary versus Bernie civil war inside the Democratic Party is harsh really getting pretty crazy Uh, this is kind of interesting. This was I caught this on MSNBC you'll like this. This is about the love of Bernie. He seemed far more open to this than most. Look he's a realist and understands what the numbers are. He knows what's going on. On the other hand it's very hard to describe unless you're there when it's like day after day after day to go to these events there's thousands of people screaming just massive if people had said to me six months ago that

Bernie Sanders Movement and Paul McCartney Comparison

An MSNBC commentator compared the emotional intensity of Bernie Sanders' supporters to Paul McCartney in 1964. The hosts mock the dated cultural reference and the suggestion that young women are reacting to Sanders with the same fervor as fans during the British Invasion.

bernie sanders· msnbc· paul mccartney· beatlemania· youth vote

1:31:23 would see 22 year old women in tears right after meeting a candidate I would have said Hillary Clinton, right? The possibility of the first woman president has so overwhelmed them and moved them. No! who I thought honestly was gonna pass out and she was crying in pain. I touched Bernie Sanders, so this is... You talk about a movement? It's like Paul McCartney in 1964 when he walks out there. Wow, hello! MSNBC cultural reference, 51 years ago doesn't cut it anymore. And I don't think Paul McCartney anyway would be the Beatles they were all getting that attention. Yeah why not just say Justin Bieber you know? Or Drake or Bianchi anything but that! I had to look it up and said yeah 64 was the height of the British invasion

1:32:19 But, no come on. What about a movement? It's like Paul McCartney in 1964! Yeah and you're right it would have been the Beatles Maybe it's not Paul McCartney. And by the way, that wasn't even the original guy at the time he was already dead then. When he walks out there and I don't know how... He was dead later No! I think it happened before they came to the States no it was-no come on man don't ruin my Mandela effect You talk about a movement? It's like Paul McCartney in 1964 when he walks out there and I don't know how you walk away from that maybe that is why she only mentioned Paul McCartney I'm sorry? That's why she only mentioned you. Oh, because he's only... He would say a wink-wink nudge-nudge to guys like you! Yeah that by the way is not the real Bernie Sanders

1:33:07 You can tell when his wife Jane was walking bare feet that was a signal. Movement? It's like Paul McCartney in 1964 when he walks out there and I don't know how you walk away from that, he is not ready to walk away from that and he doesn't think he has too His supporters don't think he has too they know the numbers too. Have a couple back-to-back clips that are kind of play in the can I mention one thing about your clips? You're doing something different with your clipping and you're leaving about 75 point, you know seventy five point seventy five seconds of White space and then there's a little little warble in it all your clips start that way. That's new Are you clipping differently no? Do it I don't know It could be the I had a funny issue with my recorder

CHAPTER 26 / 47 Discussion

Hillary Clinton and Obama Administration Fracking Promotion

Despite their environmental rhetoric, the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton have been aggressive proponents of fracking. Leaked emails show Clinton's aides discussed using Poland as a "laboratory" for fracking in Europe, while federal agencies recently cleared the way for offshore fracking in California despite earthquake risks.

fracking· california· poland· hillary clinton· environmental review· fossil fuels

1:34:00 Might have something to do with it. Yeah tighten up them clips man Tighten your shit up, bro broseph so let's play this these two clips back-to-back or less by one and talked in the other one This is a clip People out there, oh you know Obama's global warming we got to do this we gotta that everybody is all upset about these horrible Republicans how they're gonna wreck everything but let's play fracking in California for starters. On Sunday Sanders visited the original Delano headquarters of the United Farm Workers Union where he reiterated his call for a national ban on fracking when asked

1:34:37 Asked what he would do about poor water quality in the San Joaquin Valley, this comes as environmental groups are criticizing the Obama administration after two federal agencies finalized reports claiming fracking off the coast of California would pose no significant risk to the environment. The announcement of the reports by the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement ends a court-ordered moratorium on offshore fracking, which was put into place earlier this year after the Center for Biological Diversity challenged the administration's practice of rubber stamping offshore drilling without an environmental review. My name is Aby Goodman I'm a drone I am just reading whatever i have to read that the president said i have to read

1:35:20 Well, besides that. So then we get the Obama administration pushing fracking and then pushing it off the coast of Cali... Now we know fracking causes these earthquakes. Yes! The last place you want to cause earthquakes is off the coast of California. This is not a little earthquake zone like Oklahoma. You know you have a drill coming up don't you? The 7th of June, there's a drill. Yeah I think on the West Coast an earthquake drill big large-scale drill yeah just letting you know it's coming up. 7th? The seventh here that's today that's the voting day. It'll be perfect interesting That's how I do it so as we go on and with these great environmentalists like Obama and Hillary let's play the Hillary in fracking clip

1:36:09 This is interesting. Yeah, we conducted a FOIA. I worked with another reporter named Steve Horn and we received dozens of new emails showing a new layer of how aggressive this initiative was that Hillary Clinton not just traveled the world to promote fracking

1:36:48 She, according to these emails her aides discussed using Poland as a laboratory to show that fracking could be successful in Europe and then take that model and spread fracking all across both Eastern and Western Europe where we've seen a lot of of opposition to fracking. The emails also show a very close bond with industry that Hillary Clinton's aides work closely with large fossil fuel companies to pressure foreign governments around the world to adopt American-style fracking." Hmmmm, that doesn't get reported much! No...no. Well I was buried

Obama's Hurricane Season Warnings and Climate Change

President Obama visited FEMA to receive updates on the 2016 hurricane season, warning that climate change will make storms more powerful and devastating. The hosts point out that there has been a 127-month "drought" of major hurricanes hitting the U.S. mainland, contradicting previous dire predictions.

barack obama· fema· hurricane season· climate change· noaa

1:37:25 That's totally buried. It's buried who gives a crap? Nobody wants to bring any of this stuff up. This woman is a corrupt being! Now, if we end up with Trump you're gonna end up... There are some benefits Wait wait wait before let me just stick on this for a second The president was out there doing his own little agenda 2030 climate change bit And we've already been through the 127 months of no hurricanes straight. And by the way, yeah you don't have to send me the Wikipedia page those are hurricanes that never hit land as a hurricane. People would be like what's your source? No there were nothing ever hit land it was 127 months and of course as we heard from Noah

1:38:15 We are expecting, what is it? I think eight major storms. Hurricanes this season which of course starts today And it's all because of global cooling now, or the oceans are cooling despite them saying the oceans are warming. Very confusing but here is the president pile jumping. Well... My most important responsibility as President of United States is to keep our people safe. Damnit! No! No! You play your oath to defend and uphold the Constitution?

1:39:03 Our FEMA Director, Craig Fugate here at FEMA's National Response Coordination Center. And Craig and his team gave us updates on preparations for the 2016 hurricane season which starts tomorrow. All of us have seen the heartbreak the damage and in some case, the loss of life that hurricanes can cause. And as climate continues to change, hurricanes are only going to become more powerful and more devastating." Yeah he might as well say anything he wants because he'll be gone then no one will remember. More powerful and more devastating this is what they said 10 years ago! And it hasn't happened in ten years I don't know what to tell you

CHAPTER 28 / 47 Discussion

Vets vs. Hate Movement and Soros Funding

The "Vets vs. Hate" movement, led by Perry O'Brien, has been protesting Donald Trump's veteran fundraising efforts. An investigation into the group's leadership reveals connections to the Wildfire Project and the Center for Story-Based Strategy, organizations with documented financial ties to George Soros.

1:39:49 But he will keep us safe. It's an easy call to make, I'll keep you safe but nothing happens and no, I'll keep you safe from hurricanes." Okay thanks Obama then no hurricanes? I'm not wishing for hurricanes obviously. No nobody likes hurricanes we have friends in Florida We sure do And that is where they always end up So there was a big another one of the and this probably leading into what you have this Vets Against Trump did you look at any of this No. So two things, I noticed two things one and this was actually a face bag post from the head mofo in charge he of course is a knight of the no agenda roundtable The head mofo in charge posted something on to the face bag which did give me pause Two pictures one is of Trump protesters One is of Trump supporters What is the main difference in the photo?

1:40:45 One's more white and the other one is more ethnic. No? Okay, let me guess again... Mm-hmm One of them have printed t-shirts and one of them Oh I get it! What? One of them has all the same signage. Oh no no nope nope nope Alright give up Trump supporters American flags Everywhere. Trump protesters, Mexican flags, Canadian flags all kinds of other... I mean does it this is you get this makes you think? Yeah this also makes me think that this really seems like some sort of planned dirty trick that did a false flag. Yes yes I do have another one so we had a lot of like a group of veterans coming out

1:41:33 I'm led by one guy. One guy, I saw this guy. Yeah Perry O'Brien here he is thank you to both of you for your service with Don Lemon and of course Don Lemon this happens on the Veterans Day what is he gonna say? Thank you for your service Dooshbag! Well, let me just doosh him for a second. DOOSHBAG! Wrong Thank you to both of you for your service I really do appreciate it Keeping you safe Don I want to get your response to Donald Trump's press conference today and his donations To veterans You first Barry Sure well as you mentioned I was there as part of the Vets vs Hate movement We were there for the second time So they show up with a hashtag

1:42:14 Vets versus hate hashtag vets against Donald that's against Trump to hashtag so he says he's we just get his exact wording here as you mentioned, is part of the Vets vs. Hate movement. The Vets vs. Hate movement? Hmm... we'll come back to that. We're there for the second time in a week in front of Trump Tower trying to hold Donald Trump accountable for his attempt to defraud the veteran community and uh..we are trying to call attention to his ongoing use of veterans as political props to support an agenda of bigotry and hate Okay so how this happened is all of a sudden this movement

1:42:51 started saying, hey where's the $6 million? You lie. You fraud you using Vets as props and Trump was mad and you probably saw that comes down reads the amounts who it came from granted is not 6 million but it's 5.6 and there's a lot of things that he could have done better as always And it's possible He didn't have anything doled out yet All of that's possible But let's look at this Perry O'Ryan guy. He is with the Veterans Progressive Leadership Institute, follow me down the rabbit hole... which in turn is connected to Beyond The Choir. Now they appear to only have a face-bag group I hear it on reading from Beyond The Choir partners with social justice organizations to craft resonant messaging plan strategic campaigns and mobilize larger bases of support

1:43:48 Our name captures the core of our mission. In order to build movements capable of winning real change, we need to do more than just preach to the choir." The director of Beyond The Choir is Jonathan Matthew Smucker he has a book coming out entitled Hegemony How To A Roadmap for Radicals and he is connected... he's part of the Wildfire Project and the Center for Story-Based Strategy. I guess, I don't have to tell you who's funding all of these do i? Soros! Yes sir yes sir direct connections and it so is not hard to find out in fact that this is everywhere on the internet now on the internet So its just more organized protest And Don Lemon putting these people on TV without even saying hey where are you from

CHAPTER 29 / 47 Discussion

Donald Trump Calls ABC Reporter Tom Yamas a "Sleaze"

During a heated press conference regarding veteran donations, Donald Trump singled out ABC News reporter Tom Yamas, calling him a "sleaze." Trump defended his aggressive stance toward the media, stating that this is how he would conduct White House press briefings if elected.

donald trump· tom yamas· abc news· sleaze· press conference

1:44:49 What is that movement? Who's a part of it? I would CNN ask a question like that. Well, they're all in! Of course...of course. Well from this little event That's good, by the way. From this little event there was a press conference with Trump going nuts about this and the little comment that is made in this report... This is Amy Goodman again. Everyone says well there's a string of good stuff. This is how would Trump hold a news conference? He calls out Yamas from ABC

1:45:28 And in fact, let's listen to the last report. I got a Tom Yamas report here. This is Tom Yamas in California. This is the last thing he did on ABC And I think this was after Trump called him out as a sleazeball. But let's just listen to Yamas and then we'll play the sleazeball clip, which is funny. Tom Yamas with us live from California tonight. Tom, Trump University isn't the only concern for Donald Trump tonight he's also learned that the PGA Tour is moving the World Golf Championship from Trump's Miami resort to Mexico now? David, for months Trump has railed against American companies leaving the US for Mexico and tonight he's feeling it personally. The PGA says this had nothing to do with politics It's because they could not secure a sponsor at the Trump Resort Tonight Trump calling this sad day from Miami the U.S., and the game of golf And saying quote on Mexico City I hope they have kidnapping insurance Tom Yamas live in California Tom thank you Yeah no one wanted put their name under a trump hotel anymore They're all afraid

1:46:27 Yeah, yeah Wow That sucks. That's bad, but whatever let's listen to Trump going off on Yamas who happened to be at this press conference and I guess he was calling him out on some of his reports about the probably about Trump University or perhaps the veterans thing. At a news conference Tuesday Trump lambasted the media calling CNN's Jim Acosta quote a real beauty and ABC News reporter Tom Yamas a sleaze I'm not looking for credit, but what i don't want is when i raise millions of dollars have people say like this sleazy guy right over here from ABC. Hold on a second did she say lambasted? Yeah isn't it lambasted? I always said lambasted hmm

1:47:17 I think you might be able to pronounce it both ways. Okay, say like this sleazy guy right over here from ABC he's a sleaze my book your sleeves because you know the facts and you know the facts well when a reporter asked if this is how Trump would conduct a White House news conference of elected president said quote yes it is yeah and that's a benefit yes finally how good would that be? It would be hilarious oh It's interesting you say that because when I, of course I heard this. And I thought to myself, wow. Yeah he could probably do that just but i don't think you can do it every day But yeah why wouldn't he just come out and say here's what im doing? Man that would remove a layer of bull crap Wouldn't it? Well definitely wouldn't need a binder No I think that'd be fantastic That would be a big plus A big plus but of course whats happening

CHAPTER 30 / 47 Discussion

Media Industry Decline and Low Public Trust

The news media is facing a crisis of credibility, with public trust ratings lower than those of Congress. The hosts argue that the industry's reliance on pharmaceutical advertising prevents honest reporting on drug pricing, while "elites" like Bill Kristol remain delusional about their ability to control the political narrative.

bill kristol· media trust· pharmaceutical ads· news ratings· journalism

1:48:14 Everyone's in the media particularly, they're in irons. You know, they're in irons. They don't know what to do and not just the media the elites that run them and try pretty much successfully control it you know the it's like the uh you know the curtains falling away we see the man behind the curtain we see the elites who rigged the primaries we see where the power structures are and then you get a guy like Bill Crystal who is running around saying that we're gonna have a viable write-in candidate or third party independent. He's deluded! Yes, this is delusional behavior. This is really... There's a lot of delusional behavior going on and the media brought this on themselves

1:48:59 They did it by, for one thing the network news shows they've never tried to... I mean they never even stopped doing it. It just continues! They've never even attempted to free themselves from the chains of drug companies which means they also couldn't get a younger demographic because there's so much There's so much money to be made from these drug companies and of course you don't want to report on any of this bullcrap that the pharmaceuticals are pulling on the American public by jacking up the prices and just scamming their whole insurance system. Of course, with help of the insurance system, the whole thing is ridiculous

1:49:35 And so they have put themselves in a horrible position. Nobody believes half the stuff they say anymore, in fact everything is so segmented now because it causes divisiveness all over the place that people who are supporting Trump, they don't... you know there's low information voters or that as the student body president. How about the guy with the vermin supreme, with a boot on his hat? I'm still looking at him! Yeah

1:50:22 But I tell you, there's a huge rejection and the target... And if you look at what people respect the most. The news media is at the bottom of the list! Yes they have worse ratings than the president. And they don't even know well the president has 51% currently but yeah it's congress but right it's that don't they don't even understand that they've created this for themselves and they can't seem to... Oh, it's worse. It's worse than what? You know one of the things I always like to say was when blogging and all this stuff began in all these changes in the media landscape people newspapers were going out business magazines were folding all this stuff was happening I always like to say that here is a newspaper industry which is having nothing but trouble ever since Craigslist pretty much brought them to their knees

CHAPTER 31 / 47 Discussion

Gary Johnson's Libertarian Campaign and Immigration Stance

Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson and his running mate Bill Weld are criticizing Donald Trump's immigration policies, with Weld comparing them to Nazi Germany. Johnson argues that Trump's deportation plans are "incendiary" and racist, particularly in a border state like New Mexico.

gary johnson· libertarian party· immigration· bill weld· new mexico

1:51:12 Here's a group of people that are supposed to be giving us the news, giving us some analysis, giving us some insight. They couldn't even insight themselves to see what was happening to them! That's how bad they've gotten and now this is a big shock to them." Well I had an interesting email conversation with the crisis manager who I met, the guy from DC? Yeah Who is friends with Gary Johnson And then after seeing the most recent Gary Johnson clips from the Libertarian Convention, first of all I think it's sad that he joined a po- whoa are you okay?

1:51:52 What? Oh, did you hit your mic or what happened. Oh no there's a piece of paper I guess it nicked the mic. Um i'm sad to see that he joined the party because I don't vote for people who are in parties because they're just parties assholes and by the way from one of our producers sir skit skits box sent me a long report lot of hookers at that convention Maybe just so they see that you see the guy was stripped down. Yeah, he saw it too Now I said it was a lot of weed smoking going on in the corner Including Gary Johnson, but that's okay. It was fine. I got nothing against that But it seemed a little disorganized and That's a joke yeah And and so the email I had with my buddy there the crisis manager will just call him Dan to make it easy

1:52:39 I said, this is your boy. What the hell is he doing? You obviously as we just heard take issue with Trump's immigration policies Your running mate Bill Weld has compared Trump's deportation plan to Nazis policies against Jews Do you agree with that I do. You know, coming from New Mexico a border state what he's saying is just incendiary! New Mexico is one of the four minority majority states 50% of the population in new mexico's hispanic so what does that mean when we're going to deport 11 million illegal immigrants? Well arguably half the state of new mexico is gonna be subject to door knocking and house searches and paper checking. And you really see it as

1:53:23 inherently racist? I do. I think that first of all he calls them murderers and rapists look statistically they commit far less crime than US citizens they're the cream of a crop when it comes to workers they're not taking jobs that U.S. citizens want we should make it as easy as possible for somebody who wants to come into this country to work, be able to get a work visa and a work visa should entail background check and a social security card so that taxes get paid. Okay, so couple things first of all there's your great green hope the Gary Johnson being I don't know this is not a winning campaign idea to go after Trump as libertarian candidate this is not the right idea in fact Dan wrote me back he said several of us wish we could get inside his body

1:54:12 And because he's doing everything wrong, everything he is doing is wrong as witnessed by the clip from the convention itself. Last night in that debate you said you didn't want to comment on Trump but then went on to list a number of things about his policies that are just wrong How can we or what can we expect from you in terms of taking him on? Well, taking him on the fact that he wants to deport 11 million illegal immigrants. Taking him on wanting to build a fence across the border? That's nuts! Taking him on when he says that Mexicans are murderers and rapists... I mean it is incendiary as a border state governor. It is incendiary to 50% of the population of New Mexico that he's talking about Hispanics-Mexicans this way when they absolutely

1:54:55 opposite is true. Absolutely call him out on what is really racist it's just racist racist I tell you racist alright Gary Johnson good work that's not the way to do it no I mean he's you know spending a lot of time defending New Mexico let me show you how you do it, you want to discredit your opponent then follow John McCain's lead oh yeah You know, John McCain is up for re-election which is why he's very silent on Trump now.

CHAPTER 32 / 47 Discussion

John McCain's "Chemtrail Kelly" Attack Ad

Senator John McCain has released a targeted attack ad against his primary opponent, Kelly Ward, labeling her "Chemtrail Kelly." The ad uses Ward's past willingness to listen to constituents' concerns about chemtrails to frame her as a conspiracy theorist unfit for office.

john mccain· kelly ward· chemtrails· arizona· political ads

1:55:35 Because, you know God forbid that Trump is probably partially in control of the money. Certainly raising the money which goes to re-election campaigns for the Republican Party Senators and Congressmen So if you want to get your opponent out of the way here's how you do it We know chemtrail Kelly Ward spent taxpayer dollars To entertain chemtrail conspiracy theories I'd do it again Of course I would do it again But Ward's bad judgment keeps dangerous company plan to black out the sun. I know all of this, i know they're spraying my family only aliens would want to do something like that. Chemtrail Kelly Ward fuels the conspiracy using your tax dollars. I'm open! I introduce legislation all the time. I'm willing to continue this conversation. I'd do it again. Of course I'll do it again. Kelly ward you're amazing I'm gonna pray get into the Senate chemtrail kelly lay bad judgment too dangerous for Arizona

1:56:31 Okay, you get clip of the day for that fine And you know what I'm like in Arizona I'd vote for Kim to Kim trail Kelly Sounds like a winner and he did it Follow the Trump plan that Scott Adams discussed, which is to give a nickname that sticks. And it's a great nickname. Keb Trail Kelly Alliteration Everything everything's in there. I'm surprised these other idiots haven't come up with any way of adding some nicknames to Trump Well while you brought that up since you have the seed guy in there Here's a story that kind of hit the news and then the UCLA thing bumped it

CHAPTER 33 / 47 Discussion

Houston Shooting Rampage and PTSD Narrative

Dionisio Garza III, an Army veteran, went on a deadly shooting rampage in Houston, firing over 200 rounds. Media reports emphasized his struggle with PTSD and his supposed obsession with "conspiracies" regarding the collapse of the dollar, a narrative the hosts suggest was used to quickly bury the story.

dionisio garza· houston· ptsd· conspiracy theories· army veteran

1:57:17 And it's as if we want to get this story, this is the day before I believe. We want to get this story... This is the Garza shooting. Garza? Yeah, yeah, I got a misspelled. I got a G-E-A-T. So the Garza shooting took place and this was huge stories top of the news right at the beginning of the show with David Muir and there's some very interesting stories about how it rolls out. And its like oh that's interesting and lets play this. Okay, I'm ready! There are also major developments tonight after authorities say a young veteran went on a deadly shooting rampage in Houston. Late today, police revealing that the young army sergeant fired more than 200 rounds killing one person wounding six others before being taken down by police and we're now hearing from the gunman's father and his stepmother ABC's Lindsay Davis on what the family says it saw and heard from their own son beforehand

1:58:14 Tonight police say it appears 25 year old Dionisio Garza the third, the young army veteran they say was behind that deadly rampage was in the throes of a mental health crisis. His family indicated that he wasn't feeling right and he left to come here to hang out with his friends, try to find work here. The shooting spree began Sunday at 10 15 a.m., when the gunman shot and killed a customer this auto shop leaving the gas station in front in flames. He fired 212 rounds even taking aim at a police helicopter hitting it several times

1:58:51 Two officers were wounded, four others shot. Investigators now say they blew up this bag left at the scene with bullets earplugs and papers inside including his military discharge papers and birth certificate Garza was honorably discharged from the army two years ago his father a missionary tells if they blowed up the package with everything in it how'd they know what was in it? Apparently they didn't do a very good job of blowing it up. Garza was honorably discharged from the army two years ago his father, a missionary tells the local station that his son had PTSD and snapped he describes a downward spiral in recent weeks saying his son was consumed with conspiracies that the dollar was collapsing and the world was about to end. His stepmother tells us after 2 tours in Afghanistan he was never the same

1:59:41 I think he was haunted by everything that he saw there and experienced there. And, I think it changes you. Police say he drove from California to Texas and arrived on Saturday He was killed by a sniper within one hour of the shooting David? Lindsay Davis with us tonight. Lindsay thank you My God for 25 years they've been growing babies in cows! There ya go The world's coming to an end, the dollar is collapsing. All the same bullcrap you hear on these other shows... We've never ever approached that sort of thing. The world is not coming to and end. No, but the dollar is extremely strong sadly for it's actually- It's a little too strong. Yeah, too strong. It's not good for us

2:00:28 I don't know. They just found that the story was rolled out and then they were just, I think the PTSD and all the rest of it, they ended up pulling this story and nobody talked about it since. Hmm... Well there's a lot of things we haven't talked about. We still are you know just almost totally silent about flight 804 Yeah, we got some pinks in the black box but with no live shots. No nothing barely even b-roll We're actually it's old old B roll inside the cockpit you know that you know Like a thousand feet But there's nothing else as odd yeah this very strange control of the news is sightsighted some symphony conductor Do you bring it up bringing up bringing up? Yeah then we talk about do you see LA thing let's do that

CHAPTER 34 / 47 Discussion

Gotthard Base Tunnel Opening in Switzerland

The world's longest rail tunnel, the 57-kilometer Gotthard Base Tunnel, has officially opened in Switzerland after 17 years of construction. While celebrated as a feat of European unity, the project was funded entirely by Swiss taxpayers. German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted that Germany is behind schedule on the connecting infrastructure needed to fully utilize the route.

gotthard base tunnel· switzerland· angela merkel· european union· engineering

2:01:24 What do you mean? Or the UCLA thing. No, I mean it just seems like this...I mean the news media is so ultra-controlled it's ridiculous Here's a story for example. We don't get this story at all This is a big deal story out of Europe. I mean this is a huge story that I don't think has been reported on by anyone! I could be wrong because I've been watching NBC but I know that I haven't seen it on any of the main shows when this came out when it happened This is a good story too. This is the giant tunnel which has an interesting punchline because this was a story that ran on Deutsche Welle.

2:02:04 There's a giant, you know about the tunnel right? The giant tunnel that... Honestly I remember reading the headline last night and thinking something to be looked at but i didn't. Tell me about the Giant Tunnel Well here just play Giant Tunnel part one The world longest rail tunnel officially opened on Wednesday it is hoped that the trailblazing route under the Swiss Alps will cut travel times road traffic and pollution It cost 10 billion euros and took 17 years to build The Guttard-based tunnel runs between the German speaking Swiss town of Erstfeld in central Switzerland and the Italian speaking Bodio in the south.

2:02:41 At 57 kilometers, it is 7 kilometers longer than the Channel Tunnel that connects Britain with France and runs through the base of the Guttard Mountain Range avoiding steep slopes and allowing high-speed travel. Freight trains will pass through the tunnel at up to 100 km per hour. Passenger trains meanwhile will eventually reach 250 km per hour Besides being hailed as a historic engineering feat, the tunnel is also a symbol of European unity. I remember this. I was living in Holland at the time when they first started it. I do remember this yeah. Astonishing work and but where how is it a feat of European unity? It starts in Switzerland... And ends in Switzerland!

2:03:27 Maybe it's because they forced all these countries... No, no. It has nothing to do with Switzerland! They paid for it themselves. Switzerland is not even in the European Union. They didn't use any European Union money. They just paid for and said we're going to build this tunnel so they did as a killer now as I know they used EU slave labor. I think that's what they did polls Oh, well that's a possibility. Now play part two because what it turns out this is actually if you listen between the lines in part two there is when Merkel starts to speak or talk It turns out that this tunnel is a huge embarrassment to both Italy and Germany because there was these huge promises made that they were going to put some high-speed action that would come into Switzerland and go through the tunnel down to Italy, and it was gonna... And now they didn't do anything. They just sat on their asses! And so all of them are like, oh well we were behind! Very funny

2:04:27 At the opening ceremony, dancers provided a hint of the hardships endured by workers on the Gotthard Bay. Now everything in Europe every ceremony it's always with dancers Like their dancers they do with streamers. You know, but like kids and streamers always dancing like that It's so old to so lame. Yes it's so old-school elite you know I have a good idea They use dances tiny chances by workers on the got our place tunnel They burrowed for 17 years over two kilometers below ground in temperatures of up to 46 degrees centigrade

2:05:04 Inaugurating the tunnel, Swiss President Johann Schneider-Ahmann honored their achievements. It's an important step for Switzerland but also for our neighbors and the rest of the continent. Cities like Stuttgart, Zurich, Lugano or Milano are linked much better. The Gotthard Base Tunnel brings together peoples' and national economies. And with a construction of the century we build on the pioneering achievement The first passenger trains to enter the tunnel were carrying 1,000 lucky Swiss citizens who'd won their tickets in a lottery. The gesture was a recognition of the Swiss taxpayers who funded the entire 10 billion euro venture. Then it was the turn of the VIP's German Chancellor Angela Merkel French President Francois Hollande and Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi wasted no time taking their seats for the second train to leave for the south

2:05:59 Chancellor Merkel acknowledged that an important gap in Germany still exists in the link between the ports of Rotterdam, in the Netherlands and Genoa, in Italy. We know we're late. We know the Gotthard tunnel's been described as the heart of the network, but the Aorta is still missing and that's why our transport minister is working intensively on completing the Rhine link as fast as possible." The high-speed trains will whisk passengers in 20 minutes through the tunnel shafts. Rail cargo on the north south route through Switzerland is now expected to double to two billion tons a year by 2030

2:06:39 and daily rail passenger numbers are expected to grow from 9,000 now to 15,000 by 2020. Ah nice! So they took the 17 years they dug a hole uh 57 kilometers long and the Germans... They're just dealing with flat they couldn't even do that so what's going on with these Germans? Big talkers that's the way I see it Yeah, well you know what? As far as our State Department is concerned we shouldn't be there anyway. We're now learning that the US State Department has issued a warning for American tourists not to travel or reconsider their travel plans to Europe specifically... To Europe in general this summer and to the European Union How about that huh how about that take that EU! You know why

CHAPTER 35 / 47 Discussion

State Department Travel Warning for Europe and Euro 2016

The U.S. State Department has issued a travel warning for Americans visiting Europe this summer, citing potential terrorist targets like the Euro 2016 soccer tournament in France and World Youth Day in Poland. The warning comes amid widespread labor strikes in France that have disrupted transportation and fuel supplies.

state department· travel warning· euro 2016· france· terrorism· isis

2:07:32 Okay, terrorism 2016 oh yeah. No I know that was the reason it's gonna be a terrorist Yeah, but right now we've got a little extra real reason Haha well uh-huh? I think France is not playing along they've got They've got the big UEFA football cup coming up and they have no gasoline, and Americans are being told not to come at all. Specifically which kickstarts here on June 10th and is going to attract 2.5 million people from all over the world and continue until July 10th they're saying that This tournament could be a potential target for terrorism activities. So the State Department has issued this warning that they have said on their website is going to be extended until August 31st 2016, of course making it obvious that its directly going to affect potential tourists coming here to France

2:08:22 France for this European Championship. And this is something that the European officials here, particularly in France of course have been concerned about considering this latest wave of strikes that we're seeing unraveling in France with railway stations metro and towards the end of the week potentially for Terror alert is certainly something that is going to be bothering French officials here on the ground. We can take a listen to what was said by the French and German intelligence services on this, let's take a listen." We know that ISIS has the European Championships in its sights. They will try hit as soon as possible and achieve the greatest possible impact

2:09:12 Of course all of this comes on the heels of France preparing for this European tournament with concerns very high that the strikes and now this latest terror alert is going to be something that's going to be affecting those who are planning to come here. Earlier we spoke to European security expert Ricardo Boretsky, he believes that the terror threat is real. It's real! before the terror attacks, six months before the terror attacks began. The US also issued a warning and that warning in the report was actually bluntly ignored by most of the countries in Europe so this comes as no surprise you know that they made this announcement and of course they are concerned

2:09:49 that the security forces as a whole is not paying attention to the growing threat of ISIL. It's real! It's real! Not mentioned in that report is the other event taking place, there are only two mentions of terror in the EU from the State Department's briefing or the State Department's travel warnings of the European Soccer Championships, June 10th to July 11. And then the Catholic Churches World Youth Day event... Right Which is expected to draw two and a half million visitors to Krakow Poland between July 26 and July 31st Here it is US citizens should be aware that local infrastructure may be strained due to large number visitors Poland will impose border controls at all its national borders from July 4 to August 2

CHAPTER 36 / 47 Discussion

French Railway Strikes and ISIS Soccer Threats

French railway workers (SNCF) are continuing indefinite strikes against labor reforms, threatening to disrupt the European Championship. While intelligence agencies warn of ISIS targeting the matches, the hosts express skepticism, suggesting the terror warnings might be a "bogus" distraction or tied to undisclosed trade deals.

sncf· france· strikes· isis· soccer· terrorism

2:10:37 Wow, that's quite a time. And visitors to Poland during this period will be prepared to should be prepared to show their passport and undergo stricter security screening throughout Poland." Yeah we're used to it... Here's the follow-up on where were at with the strikes and specifically the SNCF, train operation that's state-run in France. French National Railway workers are continuing their indefinite demonstration and protest against the government's labor reform laws, the new bill will allow employers more freedom to lay off staff and extend working hours State rail company SNCF says the protests led to the cancellation of about 40% of high speed trains

2:11:24 and more than half of regional trains. Protesters are threatening to stay off the job through the start of the European Championship football tournament next week. Trains will be crucial in getting the expected two-and-a-half million visitors and spectators to matches across France during the month long events. They're very good timing. They know what they're doing now as I have this thought about the ISIS threat targeting the guy said in your clip Yeah, they're targeting these these soccer matches Yes yes if they kill one famous soccer player The entire world will go ballistic and go after these guys like there's no tomorrow And their soccer fans too

2:12:05 Yeah, that's even crazier. They're not gonna do anything no no they like the game They liked again although there was that attempt at Was that where was a that that attempt were they? That was in France. It was in Paris, yeah it was in Paris as well. Yeah but that was an outside explosion they were testing something They didn't do anything they just didn't even interrupt the match Right...yeah You can do a lot but you don't want to kill off any soccer player or for that reason ANY Kardashian I mean anyone of those deaths would be... They'd get toast Forget about it We will pound you we will flatten you That would create some outrage wouldn't it?

2:12:48 So, I think this is a bogus report by these so-called intelligence agencies. Yeah but it's our State Department and i think its quite rude unless they are in cahoots with the French on this as if I was in the French government like hey we need all the help that we can get don't tell people not to come That what makes me think there something else going on What do you think? It's not gonna be a false flag, I don't think that. No no no, and I don't think so either but there is something...I think it is some trade deal with the French or the EU, I have no idea! It has got to be a weapons thing They are probably doing something here. Could be, could be yeah, I have no idea. Oops, wrong one. I'm going to show my support by donating to KnowAgenda Imagine all of people who can do this Oh yeah that would be fab On KnowAgenda

Scientific Reproducibility Crisis and Chatham House Rules

The medical journal The Lancet has highlighted a crisis in scientific research, noting that a significant portion of published studies are unreproducible due to data manipulation and a broken peer review process. The hosts discuss how these issues are being debated under "Chatham House Rules," which allow for the use of information while protecting the identity of the speakers.

the lancet· reproducibility· peer review· chatham house rules· science crisis

2:24:16 Although I it does remind me of a story Okay, when I asked you one time. What's that was four years ago? I said hey what's what your grandson's name and you were like I don't know he's new like forgot. I remember that oh You don't remember that okay? Hey, we need to talk about something that is just there's no clips It can't be done But it's something really important and never so knightings zero nightings We're aching for an insta-night. Alright, go on! Ever since the professor...the official brain professor of The No Agenda Show... Turned on us? Well, but you'll recall the last dinner we had he said science is in crisis my field is in crisis and now The Lancet came out with...The Lancet's a very well respected publication Yep

2:25:19 And I'll just read a little bit here. A lot of what is published is incorrect, I'm not allowed to say who made this remark because we were asked to observe Chatham House rules We were also asked not to take photographs or slides This was someone who was at a conference that dealt specifically with the unreproducibility of most scientific studies, the massaging and outright manipulation of data to fit hypotheses and the manipulation of hypotheses to fit data. The completely broken peer review process — broken! — the use of p-values

2:26:03 Right. This is really the big one, and they're all very aware of it! Everyone is aware in the scientific field...and this is all kinds of research medical biotechnology biological services sciences sorry and of course the elephant in the room is climate science There's nothing to reproduce, actually. These are all models and predictions and fairly confident...pretty sure we're kind of confident with one foot in the air and two hands behind our backs it'll happen but this is... Howard Glassman Yeah resulting in commentary like it's never going to snow in England or gonna have the worst hurricanes ever. David Morgan Right now I think it would be better

2:26:53 to focus just on all the other fields of broken science before taking it into climate science, because that's the third rail of climate science. You cannot dispute that but all scientists... The brain professor? He is getting belligerent on the face bag! He is saying this makes me want to puke or quit or puke then quit This is a Stanford Professor saying this about his own field publicly kind Facebook. Why don't you get off Facebook immediately? Who, the professor? Yeah! No no no this is my way in So this is a very big issue there are there is caucusing going on about it The main problem is really all studies and of course this is mainly in the pharmaceutical field

2:27:48 have a reproducibility rate below 20%. That's what science is about. We started, if you remember we started noticing this some years back when we were doing more drug stuff on the show and we talked about that smoking product anti-smoking product? Yes that made you crazy shantix. And when you play the commercial, they say it's only a few points higher than a placebo. Oh that's right! Shantix Yeah you can have placebo take a placebo and you'll stop smoking or take shantics you'll stop smoking and then you also go crazy yeah there's people what your pick

2:28:34 Anyway, so science is of course not a belief system although it's being pushed in our way. And of course if it's the belief system the way it looks now then this makes nothing but sense but there's a whole bunch...you know like all religions there's a lot of hocus-pocus going on in the story and a lot of its not reproducible you know we can't reproduce baby Jesus coming back So that becomes a belief system Science is a methodology It is a practice And the practice is to reproduce and be able to reproduce findings. And have correct statistical factoring. So they're doing all these meetings under Chatham rules... What is actually the Chatham rule? I've never heard of Chatham rules! Oh, I've heard this a lot! Book Of Knowledge. Definition of Chatham Rules. The word rules has numerous meanings. Now you are just a big-ass loser

2:29:34 Chatham rule. I'm not sure what you meant by that question No, well i do chatham rules let's see it seems as though that device is getting worse It can't do any of the things that we need for the show it can turn the lights on and off set timers You can tell me the weather that does this stuff That's important but for the show its completely useless chatham house rule here We go i could probably if i asked her to look up wikipedia she would have given it to me Hold on. Hello book of knowledge. She's freaking out book of knowledge Wikipedia Chatham House rule the Chatham house rule is a system for holding debates and discussion panels on controversial issues Named after the headquarters of the UK Royal Institute of International Affairs based in Chatham House London where the rule originated in June 1927 tell me if you'd like me to read more Yes, read more

2:30:34 Oh my goodness. At a meeting held under the Chatham House rule, anyone who comes to the meeting is free to use information from the discussion but is not allowed to reveal who made any comment That is the Chatham House rule Man that thing is a big ass fail A BIG FAIL And there's your artificial intelligence everybody Alright fine Um Well, I don't see anybody discussing this topic on any show ever anywhere. Right now neither of us are scientists but we have a lot of producers in the field and would like to hear more about what is being discussed in this regard around science your field of scientific research Of course it's all about the money We all know why its happening

Sausage-Wielding Extremists Attack Vegan Cafe in Tbilisi

A group of "sausage-wielding extremists" reportedly attacked a vegan cafe in Tbilisi, Georgia, by throwing meat at patrons. The hosts suggest this bizarre event is being used to create a media association between meat-eating and Nazi ideology, further polarizing dietary choices.

tbilisi· georgia· vegan cafe· nazis· meat-eating

2:31:30 And tell me, you wrote...you did another tease in the newsletter about the sausage-wielding extremists attacking the vegan cafe in Tbilisi. Yeah there was a shop a vegan cafe in Poland or no and Georgia yeah to be seen as called I don't have the name what's top of my head didn't do is mostly vegan delight look it up now with snow was some something like that me but Cafe yourself Kiwi Cafe Kiwi Cafe and apparently these so-called Nazis

2:32:08 wore a chain around, they wore necklace of sausages and came running into the cafe and they threw meat at the patrons. And then they ran off I guess we got into a scuffle Now, to me this whole thing... I don't know that they were... I don't want anyone proves there were Nazis. What kind of Nazis they were? I think this is a prelude to what we're going to start to see. This reason I mentioned in the newsletter. I think this is a prelude to trying to do this associative thing where the vegans are good people and the Nazis are the ones who eat meat. Oh my God! Yeah, I'm giving you point

2:32:52 Absolutely. We've already seen this, you do anything out of the ordinary be either Hitler or a Nazi or your Hitler and your friends are Nazis Yeah So meat-eating will now become a Nazi activity And they'll start to sneak that into the meme fest that we're living under You watch It makes nothing but sense How did they come up with that? I think I had... I believe the global warming thing is because of the vegans I think they're behind the whole damn thing. Just to keep people from eating, it's all about the meat-eating. Don't want to eat meat? No no no no! Global warming is caused by cows! That was the one that gave us a what?! Now here's how its explained in the press

2:33:45 that they were shouting Georgia for Georgians, which our Thai eating guy Sakashvili had declared was a poisonous nationalistic slogan. So... How does that work? How is that a nationalistic...? Well I can see it as just nationalistic of course but why is it poisonous? Well, let me see. Since 2013 when violent threats against gay activists in Tbilisi forced them to cancel a Gay Pride parade in the Georgian capital the slogan appeared as spray-painted graffiti near Heroes Square in the city center alongside Nazi swastikas and racist slogans Yeah but it's more like American flags Bad? Trump! American flags bad. Trump Mexican flags good Dump trump Mexican flags good It's the same thing

Brexit Polling and Fundraising Exercises

Recent polls show 52% of UK voters favor leaving the European Union (Brexit). The hosts argue that these polls are often "fundraising exercises" for the media and that the "stay" side, which has more money, will likely prevail despite the current numbers.

brexit· polling· uk· fundraising· media income

2:34:35 The world is turned upside down, man. There's actually a book of that title out there What's it called? Everything Is Upside Down or something I have to get the exact name It was done by one British intellectual female who was very aggressive Very interesting person to listen to. I used to have clips...I think I had clips of her years ago Let me see also well the polling done in Gitmo Nation East Brexit, 52% apparently now wanting to leave according to the polling. And now obviously the polling is being questioned can't be right. Well that's because the side with the money

2:35:18 is the stay side, and the polling will generate more income for the media from them group that has the most money which is... Yes. ...is to say yes, stay. So these polls are bull crap? No it's a fundraising exercise. Well that too yeah. It's sales call Yeah, we'll see. It's not gonna happen they're gonna stay in. I'd be stunned! I'll be stunned yeah i'll eat my words. Well I spoke to Michelle... I don't know if I told you but yeah I think I did tell you that My buddy In the UK and he's selling everything. He's packing it all up, selling... He says it's gonna happen! Brexit is going to happen! Come on man they're spending so much money on frightening everybody. I said yeah but.. And he's a man of the people you know? Michel can't even- he's barely literate. I've seen him write stuff like oh my god this is horrible You know those guys very successful in business and he runs nightclubs cannot write. He can't

Zika Virus Funding and the First U.S. Case

The first baby with Zika-related microcephaly was born in New Jersey to a mother from Honduras. The hosts analyze the suspicious timing and details of the case, noting that a Fox News doctor was in the delivery room and the CDC had been tracking the mother for months. They suggest the case is being used to secure $1.9 billion in government funding.

2:36:18 It's I'm gonna ask a bit. I don't have to read some of his stuff to you once it was crazy. Yeah, it's crazy so He's gonna pack and go where? But he doesn't know but I told him Austin We need more than just the yellow rose. That's what I'm saying, all we got is the yellow rose! There are tons of them but not Austin Well yeah outside of the city there should be one in the city In the building maybe Downstairs! Downstairs! May i have your attention please? Oh Zika Oh, Zika. Zika zika zika zika! Little baby with a little bitty head With a baby with a small head They're gonna have to make a little head You watch Zika zika zika zika zika yeah Where's the money? 1.9 billion dollars Zika zika zika zika zika yeah Where's the money Let's have it now Zika zika zika zika zika yeah Where's the money Small heads are coming They're gonna do it you watch We're gonna have a problem here

2:37:17 There you go, Zika, Zika, Zika. Where's the money? That's right! We have a jingle now for this segment It's here to stay...Zika Well I have the long clip The complete clip from ABC If you want just as background Sure Let's listen to it Now to that alarming health headline involving Zika here in the US Alarming! The first baby born in the continental U.S with microcephaly The baby was born in New Jersey to a mother who had contracted the virus in her native Honduras before coming to the US. And tonight, as we learn more about the baby another development... A Major League Baseball player who came down with Zika is now revealing his symptoms Here's ABC's Gio Benitez Tonight doctors in New Jersey are revealing new details about that first Zika affected baby born in the continental U.S and her mother She is trying her best

2:38:13 to cope with this emotionally. Doctors saying today the mother was infected in Honduras and came to the US just last week for better care, The baby born premature and has microcephaly, an underdeveloped brain and head, and eye abnormalities We continue to evaluate the extent of the effects of the virus on her as well as her ability to do common childhood things. In the U.S., there are now more than 300 women who were infected by travel-related Zika during their pregnancy, and tonight a major league pitcher is also sounding the alarm on Zika. Francisco Rodriguez is warning athletes traveling to the Olympics

2:38:52 to do their homework after he was sickened with Zika during an off-season trip home to Venezuela, telling ESPN that he suffered severe body aches joint pain and headaches. And that it took two months to feel like himself again. This guy is really doing an important kind of little report because every single thing he says is very urgent and he breathes in like he can barely talk. You know what I'm saying? Talk to ABC. Do you get to micro penis with microcephaly I've never heard this. No, I'm asking it! I don't know, I've never heard this. Maybe you do? All i know is that this is a very screwy story for one thing the woman's in Honduras she has an attendant surgeon with her

2:39:39 at all times. Oh, my report actually explains this and then she rushes to the United States to have the baby so she's not a woman without means Ah well yeah listen Okay go and give me what you got because I'm interested in this whole thing is like concocted it was forced let's just find somebody we know is going to have a Zika baby so when you have one born here get some money get this damn thing you get that 1.9 billion It's even worse than that John Uh oh A newborn in New York has been diagnosed with a Zika-related illness or the New York area I should say. The mother gave birth at New Jersey's Hackensack Medical Center, the University Medical Center there David Lee Miller live from there this morning so David what do we know about this case? How did the mother contract Zika do we believe

2:40:28 Martha, we know that the mother is a 31-year old woman. We do not know anything more about her identity and that she was exposed to the Zika virus and this is important She was exposed to the Zika virus while living in her native Honduras The child was born yesterday at 3 p.m. At Hackensack University Medical Center The woman was in the United States visiting extended family. The chief of obstetrics, Dr. Manny Alvarez who is the senior managing editor for FoxNews.com was among those on the delivery team he said that child was crying and when he looked at his mother he could see pain in her heart

2:41:05 One other thing worth noting here is that the child's grandmother is a microbiologist and that she noticed a rash on her daughter's arm, and she sent her daughter's blood to the CDC. And tests number of months ago did then confirm exposure to the Zika virus this child now the second child in the United States... So there it is! The CDC knew of her they knew of her months ago Totally, totally. Hold on a second if you listen to the ABC report they said that she came to the United States and have them get better care and this report which it sounds like it's from Fox perhaps say that she came to the United States to visit some relative yeah which is it well its both

2:41:53 Well, she certainly was visiting her grandmother. Then it's her grandmother who is a, I guess, microbiologist with some pull sees a rash sends it to the CDC. Yeah that's what I do! No! Doctor clinic you know faith healer whatever it is doctor not CDC Is that your first line? How about this for an idea? The CDA...CDC put the word out that they're looking for someone that's gonna, it has a bonanza. We're looking for somebody who's got Zika virus and possibly will have a microencephalitic whatever you want to call it baby let us know if you are doctor or anyone who has a clue about this stuff and we'll rush her over here because we need to get somebody to give birth so we can get that 1.9 billion. And how about the Fox News doctor being in the delivery room?

Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Mosquito Release Demo

At the Recode Conference, the CEO of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation demonstrated a "citizen science" project involving the release of genetically modified mosquitoes to combat Zika. The hosts criticize the cavalier attitude toward releasing modified insects into the environment and the lack of public oversight.

bill gates· mosquitoes· zika· recode conference· wolbachia

2:42:53 It's ridiculous. And they have the exclusive! Mm-hmm, mm-hmm... Well nothing is as stupid—no, no one is as stupid—complete retarded moronically stupid than Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher Does Mossberg even write anymore? Not that I know of. Does he have a keyboard? He's kind of retired, what? So they do the Recode Conference which is where they really make their money on that whole recode thing and for Walt Mossberg... Okay so here's the deal The CEO of Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Susan Desmond

2:43:34 She shows up and she does this extremely childish demonstration of something that the Gates Foundation is doing, which is in Australia but they're going to do it in Africa of course. Distributing what looks like Chinese takeout containers Open and you know the ones that fold in from all four corners, and you put your rice in there That's what it looks like except. It says gates found a styrofoam one no Chinese one look cardboard cardboard cardboard actually and the idea is they have eggs Mosquito eggs that have been modified so they were female egg So they will no longer be

2:44:19 spreading the Zika virus. They will be incapable of it, and of course then they mate with other mosquitoes So this is the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation This is what they're doing They're doing genetically modification of mosquitoes And its so cavalier and she's demo-ing this She brings in a carton for each of them I mean...this is either incredibly insulting because their not that stupid Their just playing along with the game Or they're just stupid. female 80's mosquitoes will be born to fly out of your backyard right out of this. They will fly that kind of mosquito in particular have will back yet in the eggs. Those females, you know as we'll meet with a mate while they be the 80's mosquitoes that's what's in the red thing that so there's some play they do you are actually growing

2:45:28 50 female mosquitoes in your backyard. And all of their offspring will be infected with Olbachia and unable to transmit Zika. So you're using sexually transmitted diseases to solve... That's exactly right! Okay, that's the citizen science. Citizen Science! Wooo, citizen science! Mmmmm yeah that's what we're doing. Using science! Yes, citizen science

2:46:09 How can this be okay? Has she checked, is it okay to do this?" Well I know that there's legal issues about releasing mosquitoes. Hell yeah! And Gates has done this before. Gates himself has actually released a bunch of mosquitoes. ASTEC and I went back and forth on this. He released a bunch of mosquitoes at a conference for some reason. Yeah, and he let them go in the... It was a TED talk I think it was a TED talk yeah may have been a TED talk whatever the case nobody's did anything nobody cares this guy can do whatever he wants right and i guess this is I don't know I don't like that these mosquitoes aren't normally in this area so who knows what's going on here there maybe planting these mosquitoes for all we know I mean its possible that we don't have these mosquito... I'm not gonna go into paranoid thing but

Facebook Messenger Microphone Eavesdropping Claims

Facebook has admitted that its Messenger app can turn on a user's microphone to listen to their environment. While the company claims this is to provide "helpful" features, many users report receiving highly specific targeted ads immediately after having private, offline conversations about those products.

The damn thing it just doesn't make sense and so cavalier And they're so funny Walt and Kyra so funny Yeah well so funny I tweeted a link to the story yesterday that Facebook admits that if you use Facebook Messenger, they turn the microphone on from time to time and listen. They say it's only for helping give you things you need based upon the environment you are in

2:47:50 I tweet this link, and I must have 20 different emails with people of stories where they were talking about something completely innocuous. And then all of a sudden they get ads for it in their timeline." Could be coincidental but i've always said this would happen. I doubt it! Yeah, I doubt it too. I've always said what happened and people laughed at me because I said it was Google so watch how Google's going to do this you watch And now it was Facebook, and they're not ashamed.

The legal battle between Peter Thiel and Gawker is discussed, with the hosts noting that wealthy individuals have historically used their resources to challenge media outlets. Meanwhile, major tech companies like Facebook and Google have pledged to the European Union to remove "hate speech" within 24 hours, a move that effectively criminalizes certain speech across their global platforms.

2:48:48 I think there are people that think that way. Yes, and another Facebook story is this and this is more egregious now we haven't talked about the Peter Thiel thing in Gawker. I really don't care. And you know the seems to be this big push to, you know, this is horrible. You know this shows that money can buy...you could put news organizations out of work? I'm like oh news organizations are doing just fine putting themselves out at work thank you very much. Hold on a second! Are you telling me that some rich guy It's trying to put some news operation out of business? Why yes. Because that has never happened before? No, this is new! Newspapers don't try to put each other out of business?! No, that never happens!

2:49:36 That's never happened before. Oh my God, this is a shocker! Peter Thiel is using his money to try to put somebody he doesn't like out of business because that has never happened before in the history of the United States. You can ask people at The New York Herald about that or The New York American. What about... oh they're out of business? They were put out of business by the firsts Well, then they themselves are put out of business. Well there is likening and comparisons to the families like the Hursts saying this is nothing different than the Hurst's and yeah it happens all the time maybe you should look at the legal system as a issue here

2:50:16 Instead of, uh, and he had the Sheryl Sandberg have to kick him off the board of Facebook which of course they're not doing. So now everyone's saying oh Facebook there is no more free speech well hello McFly! You want to hear one goodie? A little side bit? Sure. Sheryl Sandberg Council of Foreign Relations. Of course, makes nothing but sense and now US Internet giants Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc., Google Alphabet Inc. and Microsoft Corporation Inc. pledge to tackle online hate speech in less than 24 hours as part of a joint commitment by the European Union to combat the use of social media by terrorists So...the plan here

2:51:05 Now, you know hate speech is actually criminalized in the EU. Yes it is now in the United States speeches speech and so as hate speech although we have hate crimes than several states Hate speech will now... so the way it works is very much like takedown requests for DCMA or through the DCMA, then in fact they're sheltering themselves behind this same provision. Hey we're just a conduit for everybody else's content that's all we are and I think anyway

2:51:45 So they're doing that now in Europe. And will they block, if they remove something? Does it remove just for Europe or is it removed for all countries? I'm going to guess it's removed for all countries...for all continents, for all communities, all cultures. Yeah! It could be. You know what? They're listening to you and they're removing your hate speech when will anyone get a clue Which and hate speech can be pretty much anything. Yeah, I hate you. I don't like I don't like hostess cupcakes. I hate you All right, hey you your a-hole just an a-hole. I hate you. No yeah no so good all right, I think we should See what it lands on
