About this episode

Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination with a seventy-five-minute address that major networks CBS, ABC, and NBC immediately branded as a dark, vengeful vision of America. The speech, which intentionally ran into the primetime news hour to maximize television exposure, drew sharp rebukes from Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza and MSNBC host Rachel Maddow. Critics focused on the apocalyptic tone and the America First messaging that garnered praise from former KKK leader David Duke.

Leaked DNC emails have forced the resignation of Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz just as Hillary Clinton selects Senator Tim Kaine as her running mate. The WikiLeaks dump reveals internal efforts to undermine the Bernie Sanders campaign and a cozy relationship between party officials and reporters at The Washington Post. Meanwhile, a mass shooting in Munich carried out by an eighteen-year-old of Iranian descent has reignited debates over European migration and the efficacy of shelter-in-place orders. In the United States, Edward Snowden and Andrew Huang have unveiled a new anti-surveillance phone case designed to detect unauthorized RF transmissions.

Jon Stewart returned to the late-night stage to challenge Sean Hannity and the concept of exclusive patriotism while Senator Elizabeth Warren labeled Trump a thin-skinned bully on Stephen Colbert's program. The episode features the knighting of Sir Christoph the Cantankerous and Sir Kyle Clanny as the show analyzes the forty-year economic cycle and the predatory lending practices of Goldman Sachs in Puerto Rico. State Department spokesperson John Kirby also made headlines after catching a reporter playing Pokemon Go during a briefing on the coalition to defeat ISIS.

CHAPTER 02 / 52 Discussion

Media Reaction to Trump's Dark Convention Speech

Major news networks including CBS, ABC, and NBC characterized Donald Trump's convention speech as "dark" and "vengeful." Reporters Scott Pelley and Martha Raddatz described the rhetoric as focused on death, destruction, and terrorism rather than hope. Critics argued the speech was designed to make Americans feel unsafe while positioning Trump as a demagogic figure offering sanctuary.

01:01 I don't. I do watching TV! Hey baby, come on over and we'll watch TV. C-SPAN. Wow. Riveting stuff. Well there's a lot going on in the world because it is just one after another now?

01:53 Well, wait a minute. You had it on your paper on the rundown to talk about it? Yes. Yes very good. Well couple things one It was long and I and even though there's a lot of clapping I mean, I think that was a great bit.

He did an hour and 15 minutes. So he went at least 15 minutes over what they expect to have the start bumping stuff. And I just thought that was genius

02:37 Why whoa, whoa? Whoa. Why'd you think it was genius? He was genius because he knows how to get free publicity any any moved into the into the 10 o'clock hour For news yeah, no that's good So that's what I thought was another speech itself You know I thought it was a good speech and seemed to get the job done. I think everybody's an analysis of it was completely Bullcrap they said well you know Let me start this off before we got all the dark stuff and I have some of that too Oh, it's dark the first response. I saw was

03:12 Was I'm sorry. No, let's do it this way here. I have three quickies. I have See I have the CBS right after the speech a see this is ABC and then NBC just quick quick how they actually you're done with that? I would like to run to Amy Goodman at ya It was allowed more vengeful than hopeful, more hyperbole than detailed. Okay that was uh let's see who was that? That was CBS. That was Scott Pelley. Here is ABC. Said Martha Reddis a pretty dark speech labeled Hillary Clinton the candidate of death destruction terrorism weakness and mass lawlessness. Dark yeah if Americans are not scared for their safety before tonight

04:04 They are tonight. Oh, we're all afraid for our safety a second he said that he labeled Hillary the Candidate of death yeah listen to it again We can Said Martha read us a pretty dark speech Labeled Hillary Clinton the candidate of death destruction terrorism weakness and mass Lady MacDuff hear that in his speech Yeah if Americans are not scared for their safety before tonight they are And then NBC. People in this hall see him as a man on a white horse who will lead them to some kind of sanctuary and then pull the drawbridge up behind them. Others looking in are going to see someone they'll only think of as a demagogue sometime. Okay, I'm gonna hold onto my favorite one because we're gonna play your Amy Goodman first which is... But first I do want to make couple observations before I forget One of them is that people say well

CHAPTER 03 / 52 Discussion

Amy Goodman and Alicia Garza Critique Trump Rhetoric

Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! reported on Washington Post analysis claiming Donald Trump's speech contained multiple factual inaccuracies and apocalyptic themes. Black Lives Matter co-founder Alicia Garza compared the speech to rhetoric used by Adolf Hitler. The segment notes that former KKK leader David Duke praised the speech on Twitter, specifically highlighting its "America First" and anti-elite messaging.

amy goodness· alicia garza· black lives matter· washington post· hitler comparison

04:58 Well, no I'll do it after. You better play the Goodman stuff. It's a part two. This is the Trump speech rundown from Amy? Yeah. Why is not loading? There we go and the violence, and to stop the drugs from pouring into our communities. Donald Trump's speech included multiple factual inaccuracies according to Washington Post this speech was quote a compendium of doomsday stats that fall apart upon close scrutiny numbers are taken out of context data is manipulated and sometimes the facts are wrong they wrote Many criticized Trump's speech, saying it had undertones of fear-mongering and demagoguery. In a piece entitled Donald Trump the candidate of the apocalypse The Washington Post editorial board said Trump's speech embodied a wishful demagogic

05:49 brand, writing quote Mr. Trump took real challenges and recast them in terms that were not only exaggerated but also apocalyptic co-founder of Black Lives Matter Alicia Garza tweeted quote I don't know what i'm watching right now but I imagine this is the kind of speech Hitler would make hashtag freedom now This is what I imagined Hitler would do. I thought the Hitler thing was bad enough she throws that in. Why is this Black Lives Matter woman used as a source? But okay, let's just get down to it... Well, I'll tell you why because the Black Lives Matter people are apparently on the payroll!

06:28 They are, according to the others. So I thought that was taking it to the limit but now let's just add a little icing on the cake But Trump speech did receive praise from former head of the Ku Klux Klan David Duke who tweeted quote great Trump speech America first stop wars defeat the corrupt elites protect our borders fair trade couldn't have said it better Okay, now if you listen to what Duke wrote. Yeah How would Amy disagree with any of that? Stop war! You know, shut down the elites. All this stuff that the left-wing progressives are supposed to be all for but because it came from David Duke she derides it mockingly. It just... Well just... This is what? Is the Democrat, Democratic Party all of a sudden the war party when did that happen? So just like the

CHAPTER 04 / 52 Discussion

Rachel Maddow, David Duke, and the Gateway Drug Claim

Rachel Maddow discussed David Duke's endorsement of Donald Trump's speech on MSNBC, suggesting the rhetoric serves as a "gateway drug" to extremist ideologies. During the broadcast, Maddow accidentally referred to the former Klan leader as "Donald Duke," inadvertently linking his name with Trump's. The commentary focused on the potential transformation of the Republican Party into a more radical entity.

rachel maddow· david duke· msnbc· republican party· kkk

07:22 And this is a meme going around, you probably saw it. Every single news outlet used the word dark to describe Trump's speech. There was actually a poster somebody made up. Yes and so this David Duke thing also popped up which of course makes you immediately wonder if hey someone said, Hey Duke man would you do this right after the speech? Could you just post this we'll hook ya up Rachel Maddow had her comment on it. One thing that's getting a lot of traction on social media, response to Donald Trump speech from David Duke the former Klan leader who is running for Congress again or running for some elected office again he says great Trump speech America first stop wars defeat the corrupt elites protect our borders fair trade couldn't have said it better meaning couldn't have said it better myself

08:08 And a lot of people who I think are critical of Donald Trump generally look at praise like that from somebody like Donald Duke and wonder if he is- Did you hear it? No, you didn't hear it. No, I'll tell you why I didn't hear it because I'm thinking as she rattles this off that I'm just kind of in a loop about this. What does she the grammar police all of a sudden? Well listen to what... If she's the grammar police, she makes a huge boo boo listen. Look at praise like that from somebody like Donald Duke and- Praise like that from somebody like Donald, Donald Duke. Yeah it's David Duke but all of a sudden this is good! In her head she's already connected David Duke to Donald Trump It's completely in there. Praise like that from somebody like Donald Duke and wonder if he is a gateway drug. That's a great catch I'll give you a borderline clip for the day for that No I'l take it The clips not even over yet

09:06 Beyond Donald Trump himself that means a much greater transformation of the Republican Party into something that is going to be New to mainstream politics. Look David Duke is a disgusting figure he's a racist and bigot He's a cancer on the body politic. Okay, we don't need you hear the rest this guy I like what she's saying it's a gateway drug to the KKK Trump speech a gateway drugs Oh yeah, so what Duke said? That's just Instead of character assess let's assume. We don't even know who this guy is okay gotcha no Okay, that's a point you if you did know who this guy was and let's just for argument sake we'll just say John Could you read that tweet that Adam Curry sent out about the speech?

CHAPTER 05 / 52 Discussion

Van Jones and the Mad Max America Narrative

CNN commentator Van Jones described Donald Trump's speech as a "relentlessly dark" depiction of a "Mad Max America." Jones expressed personal terror at the rising authoritarian movement he perceived in the address. He argued the speech was a calculated attempt to dismantle the Obama coalition by dividing the country into those who are inspired and those who are terrified.

09:48 Okay, and then I read exactly that. I don't have in front of me Good work Well, I mean you're throwing this at me. I don't have that Dook thing in front of me? Oh, I thought yeah it is whole tweet okay No, I'm just saying that what he said was which was anti-war war anti-elite bad bad bad all bad How's that bad? I mean this is coming from Rachel Maddow I thought these guys were supposed to be anti-war, but no. Apparently they're all pro war and Hillary's a war candidate we know that much. Everybody had the Duke thing so everybody was on that. Ku Klux Klan! But my favorite response

10:29 Right after was on CNN from Van Jones. It was just a relentlessly dark speech, he was describing some Mad Max America I work in some of the toughest neighborhoods and some of the toughest communities in this country And I don't know what he's talking about when he describes the country He's talking about and there was some schizophrenic psychopathic attempt to pull apart the Obama coalition I am, actually...I've never felt this way in my life. I have read in history being in moments where there's some big authoritarian movement and some leader that is rising up and I felt that way tonight and it was terrifying for me This piece divided the country You're either inspired by this or you're terrified by it I'm terrified by it What? He's terrified That's why I'm terrifying him more

11:26 That's right, he is a dictator. I'm afraid you're either inspired or terrified is what you are saying Van Jones And starting right off with the dark mean Yeah well he's an old pro So I ran into the one analysis that was good. And it was more objective, and it involved a guy who's just... you've probably seen him before, he used to be on Beck when Beck was on Fox. The guy's name is Pat Kadell

CHAPTER 06 / 52 Discussion

Pat Caddell and the New Paradigm Election

Political strategist Pat Caddell analyzed the 2016 election as a "new paradigm" where Donald Trump successfully positioned himself as a "blue-collar billionaire" on the side of the average citizen. Caddell contrasted Trump's populist appeal with Mitt Romney's perceived lack of empathy in 2012. The discussion also touched on Ted Cruz's "vote your conscience" remark and the negative reaction it garnered from the convention crowd.

pat caddell· fox news· jimmy carter· ronald reagan· ted cruz

12:04 And Pat Caddell was the campaign guy for, he's one of these campaign guys a high-level campaign guy who did the Jimmy Carter campaign when he lost against Reagan. Uh huh? and then he switched over to kind of Republican strategist He's noteworthy because he wears one of the cheapest wigs anyone... Oh now I know who you're talking about, yeah of course. There ya go! Got him got him. This cheap wig so he I thought he actually analyzed this thing absolutely perfectly and I think that I've always liked this guy when even when he was with Becky

12:40 He was outstanding. And by the way, the Beck people are so beside themselves and before playing Pat Caddell can we just play Dana? Dana is a good looking brunette who comes on but she's all in with Beck hating on Trump. Certain individuals particularly those that focus on trade and that's something that we will be recapping when we are back with you on Monday but the media for now is still focusing on what Ted Cruz didn't say last night But let's take a look at what he did say though He came out and he congratulated the nominee. He urged everyone to go to the polls, specifically said do not stay home this November

13:17 He said we have to beat Hillary Clinton, and then he encouraged people to vote your conscience I don't know why anybody would do if someone says if something in your consciousness And imploring you to boo when someone says vote what you're thinking but what's in your heart? Then I'm wondering kind of what's in your head and heart Darkness John dark. This is the most disingenuous thing for one thing this is Hillary Clinton's gag I saw Hillary deliver it It was quite funny when she did it. Even Hillary knew this was bogus People were not booing because he said, vote your conscience! Which is what she implies She's a liar I have to then before you go into Pat This was really outrageous lie

Ivanka Trump Speech and Fashion Line Controversy

Ivanka Trump addressed the Republican National Convention, speaking on the gender wage gap and the need for affordable childcare. Following the speech, she used Twitter to promote a $138 dress from her own fashion line, which she wore during the event. While critics accused her of using the convention for native advertising, the dress quickly sold out at Macy's.

ivanka trump· wage gap· macy's· twitter· fashion line

14:03 that I just wanted to... there were two things really, but this was CBS of course we know who's CBS' side what side they're on. Yes And this was about Ivanka speech which i liked very much I mean come on, it says... I thought it was outstanding Yeah Okay This is CBS on Ivanka speech There we go. So their CBS took a piece from Ivanka's speech where she said, we have to have equal pay for women and they said wow it's just like Hillary speech is exactly what Hillary saying

14:54 But that is a big, big lie. And I just want to play what she actually said. Women represent 46% of the total US labor force and 40 percent of American households have female primary breadwinners in 2014 women made 83 cents for every dollar earned by a man Single women without children earn 94 cents for each dollar earned by a man, whereas married mothers made only 77 cents. As researchers have noted gender is no longer the factor creating the greatest wage discrepancy in this country motherhood is Now she goes on to explain.

15:55 She her real point, which you play because she did go on. Oh she went on and on about how and what Trump is going to do is create affordable child care so that women with children can get to work like they want to do that as that is his solution. Well that makes a lot of sense just on Ivanka briefly we move on the face bag because of course this was I mean I had to get my hazmat suit on everything to go into this. Women are posting Whoa, well yeah with an $820,000 plastic surgery. I mean that's seriously a comment 820 thousand dollars worth of plastic surgery and then What? Oh she's horrible She was shilling her dress when the girl is wearing 135 dollar dress from her own clothing line

16:45 $135 dress and she looks dynamite. And she's very inspirational with her clothing line and all that, but oh no! Oh no, she is horrible She is trying to sell her dresses during the convention But the hate of how she looks it's Sarah Palin all over again Now Ivanka didn't really say anything dumb or come across stupid but doesn't matter you're pretty fuck yo Can't have that. Unbelievable. All right, next ABC. But since you went on to that topic I have this clip, Ivanka follow-up sells dress. ABC actually took that and ran with it in almost a native advertising way and gave her props. I thought of the ABC by the way believe is on the Trump's campaign. Tom Yamas joined us live tonight to tell me you and I were both in that convention hall last night A lot of high marks also for Ivanka Trump for effort to reach out to women in particular but ever the businesswoman she had another pitch after

17:47 That's right, David. This morning Ivanka Trump sending out a tweet selling a dress almost identical to the one she wore last night at the Republican convention it's from her own fashion line it cost $138 and apparently it's a big hit we checked tonight it's already sold out at Macy's. Alright selling her father and selling a few dresses at the same time Tom thank you that's right How dare you? How very dare you.

CHAPTER 08 / 52 Discussion

Trump Corruption Narrative and Vocal Delivery

Donald Trump emphasized government corruption during his speech, specifically citing Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server and the deletion of 33,000 emails. Observers noted a divide in how the speech was received: supporters viewed his loud delivery as "passionate," while detractors characterized it as "screaming." This divergence is framed as a manifestation of different psychological "dimensions" in the American electorate.

corruption· private server· hillary clinton· fbi· quantum theory

18:25 I think he largely succeeded. Pat, you faced as Jimmy Carter's pollster in 1980, you face Ronald Reagan did you tonight hear Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump or Barry Goldwater? It's... You know what we keep trying to go back to elections that don't fit this is a new paradigm election when i hear people when Doug says and I heard the other commentators of the other networks talking about But which is true that 67% think the country's on the wrong track. The same percentage don't think they're not only on the wrong track, that the country is in decline. What he did tonight was speak truth to the vast majority Democrats, Republicans and Independents believe about a rigged system?

19:06 the idea that the country's going backwards, the concern and anxiety. The larger questions at the same time trying to satisfy his base and I thought he pulled it off really well then i think the other thing he did if you think of some of the arguments He is the first American politician I can think up to stand as a nominee and use the word corruption which is what giant percentage Americans believe Washington is about about the powerless. He talked about he was reaching to themes that and I'll tell you, you could see it in the other response networks. These people are panicked. The people who do not understand they have not understood this election or why he's standing on that podium or what is going on this year? If if you want, I have the ISO of Trump about the corruption which is kind of fun. And I don't think a lot of people heard all the whole speech

19:57 You want to play that? Just about. Yeah, play the little ISO. And when a secretary of state illegally stores her emails on a private server deletes 33 000 of them so the authorities can't see her crime puts our country at risk, lies about it in every different form and faces no consequence. I know that corruption has reached a level like never ever before in our country." That I thought was really well structured

20:39 That was well put together. Yeah, I thought that was well done too uh he's...I don't like the fact that he's screaming at the top of his lungs in the whole speech. Then i need to say something because when I watch this speech and I'm getting pretty good at it you know I'm more than ever convinced in quantum theory, there's multiple dimensions. And probably half of America is in a different dimension and they see the same speech I saw and they receive it really differently but here's the main thing...and this is why it's interesting you brought it up People who say they felt that Trump was screaming usually do not agree with what he said or are against him. People who said he was passionate, uh... Or even angry but the screaming thing is very specific when people say I don't like he was screaming then you probably received it in a different way than other people which would mean you. That's a possibility that he was screaming though now

CHAPTER 09 / 52 Discussion

Trump Body Language and Mussolini Comparisons

Analysis of Donald Trump's physical mannerisms during his convention speech revealed similarities to Benito Mussolini, specifically his habit of lifting his chin while in profile. Trump also utilized specific hand gestures, such as the "OK" sign and a raised forefinger, to accentuate key points. These moves are contrasted with Bill Clinton's signature "thumb-over-fist" gesture, suggesting a different psychological signaling strategy.

benito mussolini· body language· scott adams· hand gestures· bill clinton

21:39 Now, one of the things I've noticed and this came up out of the Hitler-esque thing. And I have to say...and I'm wondering what kind of appeal this has because I do know that Mussolini was extremely popular in Italy. Very! People loved him. And Mussolini did a rather good job of straightening out a lot of problems Italians had including besides making trains run on time it was when he got hooked with Hitler Yeah that's when everything started to decline Now, Trump he made so many Mussolini moves. He profiled himself but he put himself in profile during the speech and did it over and over again mostly turning to the left And then putting himself in profile and then very slightly lifting his chin That is a complete Mussolini move Yes! You're right!

22:38 You're right. I saw that, I saw it! Now Mussolini way... he took his chin way up Yeah He brought his head waaayyy up so he's looking almost 45 degrees up Trump did not do that. He did not go that much, but I'm waiting...I was waiting! He just never did it. But you know what? It was a Mussolini thing and he did it a number of times and I don't know whether is he doing on purpose the way he did it I believe it was done on purpose to elicit some sort of something this guy has more of a manipulator than I mean I think that's what Scott Adams kind of claims too You know who paid attention to and I've watched probably four times now I spent one time watching most of the speech just paying attention to his right arm.

23:21 and he has... it looks like three, but he really has two moves. The right hand goes up and he's-has his finger in the air and is-and his thumb back almost like you'd be shooting a toy gun in the air Yeah And then..but then he will change it and put his forefinger to his thumb and then other three fingers come up and they does an okay sign which sometimes when he takes arm down completely horizontally It's like he's crooking his index finger back So it's really, it's the okay sign except it's held horizontally. And he uses this to accentuate things he wants you to remember and I don't...I'm not a body language study student or professor. You know, I wish they'd bring that body language. O'Reilly had this body language one time. Yeah she's always good! She on recently? I think they've nixed her because she's too good Because they're run by the Democrats that's why

24:19 Well, anyway she's not on anymore but he does that I know exactly what you're talking about and he does that finger thing. And it is a big major...and i think it's almost like if you look at him as a magician A conductor! I looked more of me like a conductor Okay, I can dig that Groovy man can you dig that John? It's uh... I grok it too baby Oh wow I said that I think of him as a magician, so he's doing sleight-of-hand and he's distracting you because...I'm always looking at that hand. Maybe he could be doing something else with his other hand? There is someone out in our intelligence network who knows about this stuff

25:01 I'm sure someone will get back to us. It's a huge contrast to Hillary, Hillary's main move is that you have her palm facing inwards and their hand horizontal and she makes a chopping move with their hand Hey! I just realized something You know how for a lot of, Bill Clinton does. That's how I just thought of it. Bill Clinton when he is talking and a lot of politicians do this they will hold their fist closed with their thumb over the top of their forefinger and will be kind You know, going up and down like Trump would do but with their thumb pointing towards you. With the thumb on top of the... Yes. Clinton's main move is that thumb thing so if you... And then he'll bite his lip once in a while Right now if you were to put your hand down and you put the thumb over your finger and then you switch to the Trump move which is the three fingers out and the one finger crossed over held by the thumb it is almost the antithesis

26:00 What the other politicians are doing it is a completely different signal you know what I mean? Yeah, absolutely God. I wish had gone to college yeah well i'm glad you didn't So let's go on with the Cadel. This is the follow-up, this is clip one and this is actually John Boutelier who was a real Republican hack who was sitting there discussing this with Cadel and a representative Democrat strategist And unlike—and I will give Fox credit for this Unlike the other networks especially CNN they do not beat up

CHAPTER 10 / 52 Discussion

Fox News Strategy and the Podesta Emails

Fox News provided a platform for strategists like Pat Caddell to argue that Donald Trump's "outsider" status threatens a failing political order. This coverage is contrasted with CNN, where host Don Lemon was criticized for his treatment of Kellyanne Conway. Leaked emails from John Podesta suggest the Democratic strategy will focus on portraying Trump as "temperamentally unsuited" for the presidency.

fox news· don lemon· kellyanne conway· john podesta· wikileaks

26:42 the Democrat. CNN beats up any Republican that comes out, they do and what they...what that prick Don Lemon did to Kelly Conway or Kellyanne Conway was unbelievable when I watched it. Wait a minute, well I don't think I saw that Yeah we discussed it at couple of shows back Anyway, Pat Cadell. All right here we go. John you're an old line Republican what do you think? You know if you look back in the last hundred years we've had three presidents who were rich and therefore independent Teddy and Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy And each one of them got on the side of a little guy

27:26 And when you're rich and the little guy embraces you, you can't be beaten because none of the normal stuff applies. You can't say he's corrupt, you can't say he's going to be bought off he's on our side. Trump is getting on the side of 40 some odd percent, he needs more tonight was an I think a good step to get more of him. He's like a blue collar billionaire. By the way Romney who was rich never got on the other side he was seen as prissy yeah and he talked down to people with no empathy whatsoever right? He talked down to them in that 47% thing killed him

28:08 I thought that was good. Yeah, it is good. I like that What was the what network versus on again? This is on Fox Okay gotcha and it wasn't but it was a special team. I've never seen these guys before Hmm, uh-huh, but I think there's gonna be a lot of team six There's gonna be a lot yeah, there's gonna be a lot of changes at Fox so let's play the end of this and this is It's Pat Cadell's final kind of Wrap up. It's a devastating thing what happened to her with the emails in the FBI it is really hurting but they have no more understanding of America and as I said before Donald Trump threatens the political order that is failing the country, that's how voters view it and that's why this speech was a success. And he almost got where we've wanted him Pat and close. To this argument which has

29:00 The country, the system is corrupt. The government and the economy is... he did say it's rigged. Corrupt is the key word Do you want to put a corrupt person in charge of a corrupt system? Or do you want to send me an outsider to come clean it up?" And he almost used those words tonight. The message was there If he does say that and sticks with it He will win the election. And what you will see from Secretary Clinton next week is a different view of the world, but attacks on Donald Trump saying he is unqualified, unprepared with a view of the world that is out-of-step with our global challenges. It was in the Podesta thing that Eric read or Heather when Podesta said Trump is temperamentally unsuited to be president all week next week in Philadelphia

29:51 All they're going to do is try to say he's a whack job who can't be trusted. And that's what you'll hear. Who is unqualified and is a risk to our well-being and stability. That's what you'll hear. Well, they let us say it in a lot tougher terms than the Republicans who are more closer to accurate about lock her up, lock her up. Yep, I'm glad we addressed that issue tonight Now, just one follow-up clip. It follows up to what they are predicting for the Democratic Convention which I agree with because all I've heard from Hillary is pretty much the same thing and those are all outlined in the WikiLeaks material Yeah we'll get to that next but let's listen to the idealistic off of the PBS News our Mark Shields

CHAPTER 11 / 52 Discussion

Mark Shields and Democratic Convention Predictions

PBS NewsHour analyst Mark Shields predicted that the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia would focus on "love and light" rather than the negativity seen in Cleveland. Shields suggested the Democrats would utilize self-deprecating humor and avoid a "Trump-bashing" theme. Skeptics noted that this prediction likely contradicts the actual strategy revealed in leaked documents.

mark shields· pbs newshour· democratic national convention· philadelphia· cleveland

30:39 who's going to predict what's going to happen. He saw the Republican convention as a bunch of negative stuff all slamming Hillary and the Democrats, will never do anything like that and I'm keeping this clip because I'd like to see Shields say the same thing in a week but this is Mark Shields talking about What the Democrats will do, it's all going to be love and light. Yeah, Democrats if they're smart and they're not brain dead are doing two things right now that we have a self-deprecating humor written for them so there was no humor in Cleveland and they're not making this Donald Trump punch. Bashing convention.

31:21 Yeah, that's a good one to keep around evergreen. I'm keeping down one He's full of it But want to bring something up which ties into stuff? I've learned from you this was the post Speech discussion on the today show think he broadened his appeal here a little bit It was a very I don't know how many people, I think there are some people that wake up and say wow the country is deteriorating. But i think a lot of people didn't recognize that country that he described either so it's very polarizing to me. On your point this wasn't the shining city on the hill this wasn't more morning in America, he sounded like a wartime president last night. It's just very dark. Dark. Now the wartime president but really this was no morning in America speech is continuously rolled out to show that whatever Donald Trump wants he can never be like Ronald Reagan but when I went to look at this and I did put the Morning In America speech YouTube you can watch it find it in the show notes 845.noagendinotes.com

CHAPTER 12 / 52 Discussion

Presidential Cycles and the 40-Year Cusp

Historical analysis suggests that "great" presidents like Ronald Reagan and Franklin D. Roosevelt often fall on a specific 40-year cycle cusp. While Jimmy Carter was caught in a 10-year downturn starting in 1969, Reagan benefited from the subsequent upcycle. The theory posits that whoever wins the 2016 election will face a significant economic downturn or collapse unless they can navigate the cycle's transition.

ronald reagan· franklin d. roosevelt· jimmy carter· economic cycles· 40-year cycle

32:21 The Morning in America speech was his re-election speech. That was his second time around, not his initial go vote for me and of course we had prosperity the second...for a second term and what I've learned from your cycle book which i have a copy up here is that we should have had the Ronald Reagan like president in four years from now But I think Donald Trump is so enamored by Reagan that he thinks he's going to do the same, really the same trajectory. Because when Reagan first came in it was not great we had problems in the country. It was the end of a cycle and Jimmy Carter who wasn't really as bad as they'd like everyone to believe, just incompetent during that era

33:13 He ended the 10-year downturn which began in 1969. It actually got rolling in 70, and there was a decade and Nixon was in there then nobody could fix anything because you can't really fix anything during the cycle's downturn You can't do anything! You can fool around I mean that's what Obama has done he's fooled around hasn't fixed anything There is no unemployment so we're terrible just take a look at shadow stats So, what can happen is that if you can get the cusp of greatness and you look at every president who was great or considered great and you will find that they're all on this 40-year cusp.

34:00 Ronald Reagan and 40 years earlier in 1940 it was Roosevelt. And 40 years earlier I forgot, it was...I think the other one was Teddy Roosevelt Anyway you'll find these guys those are the guys who were all great presidents usually the guy's who fall short of getting elected that year like the year before like Jimmy Carter they consider some of the worst president so whoever gets elected in this cycle Can gets the down round you should get the down run but this has happened and this happened with Roosevelt Always an exception to the cycle that's Actually not an exception It's just a way through the way the cycle works if you're lucky enough to be Roosevelt when you could be reelected for a third And a fourth term eventually You can see you can jump over

34:50 the barrier that would be 1939 and then now you're the president in 1940, in that cycle. That means you're automatically a great president because that's part of the 40-year cycle so what Trump has to do If he wins, if Hillary wins I don't think she has the wherewithal to get past it and she's gonna get... because people want her to fail. They hate her nobody likes the woman so if she gets elected we're gonna have a downturn We're gonna have a collapse of some sort It could be really bad or could be..it's going to be bad And I would like to say that I had dinner at the former New York Bankers House

CHAPTER 13 / 52 Discussion

Austin Real Estate Market and Economic Warning Signs

Local economic indicators in Austin, Texas, show signs of a potential bubble, with high-rise condos being sold primarily to investors looking to flip properties rather than residents. Reports indicate that restaurants in the area are beginning to go out of business, which some interpret as a precursor to a broader national downturn. The discussion links these local trends to the larger 40-year economic cycle theory.

austin texas· real estate· condos· investment· economic collapse

35:27 And there's unanimous agreement, certainly in the city of Austin that it's going to be very bad here. We have these condos up everywhere completely sold out but these are all people who want to flip it. These are not people who want to live in it they're investors and they're gonna get screwed we have a...we have restaurants going out of business now Yeah, you can see in some parts of the country you always see a beginning. How does a Mexican restaurant go out of business in Texas? I don't know, they must have lousy food. So what can happen with like what would happen with Roosevelt he got over and he got elected for the up cycle and so he is now considered a great president if he was not if he did not win that last election or the third election where it got into so he's there in 1940 and somebody I don't know who ran against him then window work will get to look but somebody if that other guy would have beat him

36:26 He'd have become, he would be the superstar and Roosevelt would've been seen as a flop. And because he really didn't do anything during the depression, he created some sort of civilian conservation corps and things like that which I think is still will be a good idea now when it's done So what Trump, so what happens if Hillary gets in she won't get us past it because she just doesn't nobody's rooting for her and they'll just vote somebody else in for the 2020. But Trump is a business guy and he can and he does hyperbole well and he said he has a demagogue which means he appeals to the popular taste that's all that means. Yeah it's not a bad thing as we're demagogues, we're demagogues we just fail at it that's all

37:08 And so you, so he might be able to push himself into a re-election campaign that would get him re-elected. Then he would be considered this great guy. Right right right well I think that he thinks that far ahead and he sees the cycle and he must know the cycle or some of it's like... A lot of people know this cycle is not something I invented. Well come on let's let's be easy with it we have a book to sell here I'd like to play, but think of three or four short clips from Trump's speech which i thought were just to me were highlights that speak to people and who are in...like him for this.

CHAPTER 14 / 52 Discussion

NATO Obsolescence and Trump Foreign Policy

Donald Trump reiterated his stance that NATO is "obsolete" because it has not sufficiently focused on terrorism and many member nations fail to pay their fair share of costs. He claimed that following his initial criticisms, NATO announced a new program to combat terror. This narrative counters media reports suggesting Trump intends to abandon the alliance entirely.

nato· terrorism· foreign policy· gdp· balkans

37:51 And the first thing he did now, of course all these speeches come out like a half hour before they're going to be delivered and it's under embargo. But right away all news media was we have a leaked copy! We have a leaked copy! It wasn't a leaked copy. They gave the copy away? It wasn't leaked?! Of course it wasn't leaked that's what I'm saying but Trump did put a number of things into his speech which he did not give in his pre-embargoed pre-speech copy two things and the first... He did wander off every so often. I know you could tell when he did it because his voice changed

38:28 Well, this was in the prompter because I went back and watched. It was not in the script and the original script that everyone had at that many news ads are still saying here's the full transcript but I couldn't fit...I'm looking for a particular word I can't find say what this must not be the right transcript so this was not an ad lib but it was something that was put in to me it was almost like a binary you know where you have something you put something in people's head early on and then you're gonna pay it off And it was also maybe a bit out of frustration, but this was completely unknown and it wasn't really discussed in the context of this inserted piece in the speech. Recently I have said that NATO was obsolete because it did not properly cover terror and also that many of the member countries were not paying their fair share

39:30 As usual, the United States has been picking up the cost. Shortly thereafter it was announced that NATO will be setting up a new program in order to combat terrorism – a true step in the right direction. The overall meme, which is repeated everywhere and was like it was actually it was kind of it was a little I didn't feel good about it. It was having dinner with Tina and one of her daughters And you know she's um She's majoring in political science it goes back and forth But she had done a paper and said out of the blue. She says well You know Trump says warning we're gonna Abandon NATO I said no No That's not true yet, and then she got

40:23 upset because she, you know had done a paper on this and she had all these sources. And I'm sure her professor corroborated it but even if you go back to Trump's original foreign policy speech which of course didn't get the same amount of attention as he wanted He speaks of the obsolescence which now that's the binary part Huh right after i did my foreign policy speech they said we should really start to look at terror so Not only is this continually being lied about, because I cannot find anywhere where he said we're going to pull out of NATO. It's been very consistent and Obama went to the Balkans and said hey you guys need to pay up!

CHAPTER 15 / 52 Discussion

LGBTQ Protection and Evangelical Support

In a departure from traditional Republican rhetoric, Donald Trump pledged to protect LGBTQ citizens from "hateful foreign ideologies," a reference to the Pulse nightclub shooting. The inclusion of the "Q" in the acronym was noted as a late addition to the script. Trump also expressed contrition and gratitude for the support he received from the evangelical community during his address.

lgbtq· orlando shooting· evangelicals· ad-lib· convention speech

41:03 But he was there for days. You remember the big stage and hey you need to pay up your 2% GDP because of course we have gun sales, we have weapon sales to do So I thought that was very good that he put that in there And then the other part which was most definitely not in this speech wasn't an ad lib Most definitely? Most definitely most completely definitely for sure not in the speech As your president...I will do everything in my power To protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology. Now, when I looked at all the transcripts it said LGBT so obviously someone very smart said add the Q and what i like so much about Trump is you can tell he's in his head... The guy's 70

41:55 I know people who are in this age bracket and they're all fine, love and light but yeah don't care too much. And this LGBT or as we see LGBTQQIAP it borders on ridiculous and you can see him going whatever this means LGBTQ? Q? Which in this case means questioning Although you could that's up for debate because often LGBTQ is equated to queer But I believe it's questioning and and I like just seeing him go. I don't know what the fuck is up with these people But I'll protect you whatever I know whatever letter of the alphabet You want I'll protect you all take care, but they carry yeah, I like that a lot And that made me laugh that really did

42:46 And that it was put in later someone probably one of his kids. He did he also did this thing about I'm glad the evangelicals like me because and then he does this thing puts his hand over his heart. Like, I didn't really deserve your support? Yeah, he didn't deserve it's very contrite yeah and I thought that was good and I was convinced that that was ad-libbed I think it was. It was not in the scripts that i saw, so i believe that it is yeah uh he had a few things on there to keep the thing smooth i have another one and to keep and he had to do this i was actually surprised his speech wasn't as good as it was i know because you thought it was going to be boring it wasn't all that bad i thought it was going to be a complete dud it was gonna be like that other speech that he read from a prompter but no no no he had the great he had a good mix this time yes he had he had the mix down which i think he knew we could do all along probably

CHAPTER 16 / 52 Discussion

Economic Statistics and the Forgotten Man

Donald Trump cited specific economic data during his speech, noting that 58% of African-American youth are not employed and two million more Latinos are in poverty than eight years ago. He addressed the "forgotten men and women" of the country, particularly those in "flyover states" affected by unfair trade deals. These statistics were used to challenge the mainstream narrative of economic recovery.

unemployment· poverty· latino· african-american· trade deals

43:37 Well, here's another... He just wondered if he was going to. Yes Here is another highlight which of course stuff we talk about all the time on the show regarding what you mentioned about 10 minutes ago the real unemployment numbers What about our economy? Again I will tell you The plain facts that have been edited out of your nightly news and your morning newspaper Nearly 4 in 10 African-American children are living in poverty, while 58% of African American youth are now not employed. Two million more Latinos are in poverty today than when President Obama took his oath of office less than eight years ago. Another 14 million people have left the workforce entirely

44:36 Household incomes are down more than $4,000 since the year 2000. That's 16 years ago! If someone is poor and they heard this part of the speech which is doubtful... Very doubtful. Although it was on primetime Yeah but... The amount of people that I saw in the face bag whether they're lying or not saying I'm not even gonna watch But maybe some poor people saw it. And Hillary said she wasn't going to watch, which makes zero sense but okay she wants to be that way This was now this of course is I think this is what scared people like Van Jones and this is where I realized yes you could interpret this completely differently and that is only based upon your programming that's in your head and it doesn't make it invalid for anybody who sees this as scary dictator talk In this race for the White House

45:32 I am the law and order candidate. Yeah, yeah, totally agree with that people oh my god he's gonna be horrible. He is going to be a Mussolini now the last here's the last little bit which i think was good every day determined to deliver a better life for the people all across this nation. That was one of the few times he said, This Nation instead of Our Nation or our country it was pretty consistent I thought he said it quite a few times This instead of our? No, It was consistently our but he did a couple of different things. That's what I meant that have been ignored neglected and abandoned

46:18 I have visited the laid off factory workers and the communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten men and women of our country, and they are forgotten but they're not going to be forgotten long. Even though grammatically it didn't come out well? I don't like that. He dropped a lot of stuff grammatically. People who feel forgotten which are in the so-called flyover states. I live in one they understand this language They really understand this language now if you want his final his final pitch kind of the wind up, which is two minutes? I chopped out a lot of the applause You want to hear that just so we can get the final pitch piece and or do you feel that we've done enough there? I don't know if we've done enough for you might play it then we can kill it I

CHAPTER 17 / 52 Discussion

Trump's Final Pitch and "I Am Your Voice"

Donald Trump concluded his convention speech by framing his mission as an exclusive service to the American people, promising to break free from "petty politics." He attacked the media and political establishment as "censors, critics, and cynics" who maintain a rigged system. The climax of the pitch featured the phrase "I am your voice," which drew significant criticism from political opponents.

history· censors· critics· cynics· rigged system

47:17 A truly great life and business. But now, my sole and exclusive mission is to go to work for our country To go to work for you! It's time to deliver a victory For the American people We don't win anymore but we are going to start winning again But to do that, we must break free from the petty politics of the past. America is a nation of believers, dreamers and strivers! I love that. It's been so long since i heard someone say that And how was that dark? Yeah it's been a long time since I heard that That has being led by a group of censors critics and cynics Also very good Remember

48:15 All of the people telling you, you can't have the country you want are the same people that wouldn't stand. I mean they said Trump doesn't have a chance of being here tonight! Not a chance! The same people! Always good to make a comparison to the people who guessed it wrong Oh we love defeating those people don't we? Don't we love defeating them? No longer Can we rely on those same people in the media and politics who will say anything to keep our rigged system in place? Instead, we must choose to believe in America. History is watching us now." This was interesting I had never really... Is this a common phrase history is watching us

49:11 I've heard it before. Well, what it's typically is we want to be on the right side of history. Oh, that's a variation of that? Yeah but it's a better one I think because the right side of history... I don't like the right side of history commentary It just... you know maybe its better for that but.. Its okay. Alright. I thought he did a good job with History Is Watching We dont have much time No time But History Is Watching It's waiting to see if we will rise to the occasion. History waits for no man! Yes, history is sitting there going dude you guys are aft And if we will show the whole world that America is still free and independent and strong Another thing I haven't heard in ages How's that dark? That's well laid-down I am your voice

50:10 So that's big. That's really good there, I am your... That was what all the critics hated when he said that because it's like... They hated it? And by the way, I can understand where they're coming from when you said something like that because again, I don't think half these guys who were critical of this speech noticed a Mussolini thing that he did and they never brought it up. Hitler is nothing like Hitler! I think they just did a crappy job. More are you...I'm kind of done with this, what i would like to play though is two more responses one now this was uh the people were so happy hey we're so happy John Stewart came on Stephen Colbert because if you look at the face bags throughout the convention

CHAPTER 18 / 52 Discussion

Jon Stewart's Appearance on The Late Show

Jon Stewart made a guest appearance on Stephen Colbert's show, adopting a "dressed-down" look compared to George Clooney. Stewart's segment focused heavily on criticizing Fox News host Sean Hannity, whom he referred to as "Lumpy." The appearance was highly anticipated by social media users seeking Stewart's perspective on the Republican convention.

jon stewart· stephen colbert· sean hannity· george clooney· late show

51:04 There was a consistent cry for, oh if only we had Jon Stewart. We need Jon Stewart to make sense of it! Where's John? Every Obama bot I know including the artist Oh boy, this is a time when we need Jon Stewart. I saw this by the way and if you witnessed it... Of course i did! Okay yeah well so we have... I have a clip from that's why This was Thursday night after this was the second show they did on Thursday Colbert does what Letterman used to do which is due two shows on Thursday around the second one on Friday So he'd take the day off and get three-day weekend And Letterman used to do this because he liked to fly out to Montana his ranch and gave him extra days

51:45 So they did this show and so when Stewart, so they're yakking away about it was a very lax lackluster show generally speaking but Stewart crops up from under the desk. And I'm when I saw him I said this guy looks like a bum off the streets how does anybody take him seriously? He's doing wearing a T-shirt he's doing a Clooney! This is a Clooney He's got the beard, he's dressed down. He's all for America and he's superior and he's here to save the day like Clooney does! Clooney saves everybody except for the people in the... I've never seen Clooney in a T-shirt No well you've seen Clooney when he started doing the beard yeah Clooney has T-shirts on all the time It's a dressed down Clooney look I am a follower of fashion So now as I watch this... A follower of fashion Yes me and Ray Davies

52:37 But as I'm watching this, pretty much the whole bit is about Sean Hannity who Jon Stewart calls Lumpy. Which you know no one cares about Sean Hannity in fact Sean Hannity cares so little about Sean Hannity that seanhannity.com directs to noagendershow.com So no one cares about Sean Hannity. But he's all pissed off about the people he has on and things he is saying, you know. It just not...it just completely...but! He was really- You're right, he was obsessed...He's obsessive about Sean Hannity and you're right who cares? And then to wrap it up, he revealed his true reason for being there which is actually quite honorable but

53:26 completely the wrong message for this audience, for his audience who just want to hear him say Donald Trump sucks and is not going to win and here's why. And that's all they wanted but he did not do a good job. Listen last minute... Let me just say it for real here's where we are now remember the things Trump said about America were dreamers we aspire to things you know what we try to get things done were free and independent Either Lumpi and his friends are lying about being bothered by thin-skinned, authoritarian less than Christian readers of Prompter being president. Which he just read off the prompter which is kind of interesting Or they don't care as long it's their thin skinned prompter authoritarian tyrant narcissist

54:07 You just want that person to give you your country back because you feel that you're this country's rightful owners. There is only one problem with that, this country isn't yours! You don't own it! It never was! There is no real America! And people are cheering? You don't own it. I mean, he's insinuating racism, I believe saying you white people... No! You know, I saw that baffled. I never came to any conclusion whatsoever and never thought the clip it. I think you did a good job there because now I listen to it yeah should have been clipped but But listen- I was just, what is he talking about?! Well, he wraps it up with He was really there Play that thing from scratch again Scratch it is

CHAPTER 19 / 52 Discussion

Jon Stewart on Patriotism and First Responders

During his Late Show appearance, Jon Stewart argued that no single group "owns" America, patriotism, or Christianity. He criticized those who use "Blue Lives Matter" rhetoric but failed to support the 9-11 First Responders Bill reauthorization. While Stewart has been a long-time advocate for first responders, critics felt his focus on Sean Hannity distracted from his core message.

9-11 first responders bill· patriotism· christianity· blue lives matter· stephen colbert

54:54 So let's just say it for real. Here is where we are. For real? For real! Either Lumpy and his friends are lying about being bothered by thin-skinned, authoritarian less than Christian readers of Prompter being president or they don't care as long as it's their... Hold on a second stop stop stop. Lumpy isn't bothered by him becoming president he wants him to become president. Did you notice that little twist? Yeah oh yeah but the funny thing is He, so first what he does is he says there's and then he does that and then says there's no real American. You don't you know one can own it? There's no real American. It's very disturbing but just listen to his book The One. ... readers of Prompter being president or they don't care as long as it's their thin-skinned prompter authoritarian tyrant narcissist. You just want that person to give your country back because you feel that your this country's rightful owners. There's only one problem... Is it not true John

55:52 I've always felt ownership of America. Not like, I own it but...I take ownership for my country. I've always been proud in my country even when we do dumb shit you know? But ownership, isn't that kind of the core of any citizen in any country? You have ownership. I mean, I finance part of the country... Yeah you fina- yeah we pay into this. Yeah we pay into this deal, yeah. Big time! There's only one problem with that. This country isn't yours. You don't own it. It never was. There is no real America. You do not own it You don't own patriotism, you don't own Christianity. You sure as hell do not own respect for the bravery and sacrifice of military police and firefighters. Trust me!

56:38 I saw a lot of people, on the convention floor in Cleveland with their Blue Lives Matter rhetoric who either remained silent or actively fought against the 9-11 First Responders Bill reauthorization. Now that was his real message and then after that he wound up and Colbert came back, and air horns and whatever. But he has been lobbying for a couple years now for the reauthorization of the First Responders Act to continue to pay medical costs etc., for people who have become very ill after 9-11 And I really appreciate that he's doing that but that was his only message He came there to do that...I think he missed the mark

57:22 By, you know by criticizing Sean Hannity. I mean he criticized Trump that's what i think he was there for but he did this whole Sean Hannity thing and the payoff was you don't care about our police like I do which is what he's saying and he does care about them in our first responders so I think he completely missed the mark I think he screwed up He's lost his touch. Yeah, yeah that's probably true now on I think it was you know as a guy at the desk there instead of Colbert I think he did a little... Colbert just still to me I think he's got good material but he just seems like a phony. His personality is... No no he has an identity crisis. He has a professional identity crisis because he doesn't want to be the guy that he was

58:14 But he is on the exactly. He's still that same that same phony guy that he was on this original show kind of a you know, it's got that dumb smile and it just The ill-fitting suits are very, they make him look like he's like Brooks Brothers. He looks like a banker more than he does anything else that is not funny It was great for that other show where he could play that character and played it to the hilt but he can't seem to get out of that character as far as I can tell. I watch this show all the time Yeah! I still have my personal ratings. I think Kimmel shows the best. I think Fallon shows maybe the most creative by just

CHAPTER 20 / 52 Discussion

Elizabeth Warren on Stephen Colbert

Senator Elizabeth Warren appeared on Stephen Colbert's program, labeling Donald Trump a "dangerous man" and a "thin-skinned bully." She dismissed Trump's economic policies and claimed his convention speech was designed to make Americans afraid of one another. Warren's appearance aligned with the Democratic "Dangerous Donald" messaging strategy.

elizabeth warren· stephen colbert· dangerous donald· bullying· middle class

58:52 I think it's tedious because of all the games. He likes to play games with the guests, you know beer pong and whatever it is. It just kind of annoying gets old fast but I think he attracts a much younger audience like that Fallon is probably the best produced show Kimmel's I think the best show. I agree. I watch Kimmel more often and Colbert just falls through the cracks. I think he's a good interviewer now picked up from the other show Colbert had Elizabeth Warren on And she said something, well a couple of things. This woman is odd. She does odd things and you know she reminds me so much of the Obot artist it's not funny. Oh she even looks like her!

59:37 She does. And a lot of people have the Rachel Maddow cadence, but she says something really interesting in this bid on Colbert. The Democrats Hillary Clinton has to be fighting Donald Trump for the presidency do you think the Democrats are underestimating Donald Trump? Yes I think everyone is underestimating Donald Trump he is one dangerous man and we need to take him really seriously Did you hear that? Take him out now. Shoot him I guess, what else could it mean take him out now he's the Republican nominee take him out now how do you take about now the elections not till November That's odd. Good catch Yeah yeah here is her strategy I think this secret service should have a talk with her I agree listen they've talked to other people saying weird stuff Here is their strategy

1:00:32 Now Trump, you're nothing but a thin-skinned bully. Are you a bull? He's asked based upon all the tweets that she's been and I thought Colbert was good in this interview because he pushed back But whenever he made a little counterpoint it was drowned out by applause but I appreciated what he was doing And so we said hey your sent you're tweeting all this stuff to Trump are you a bully? You're nothing but a thin skinned bully. Are you a bully? Are you bullying him here? Aren't you stooping his level I mean, Marco Rubio. Oh that poor little billionaire! Did i hurt his feelings? Apparently if you have money then bullying doesn't matter and just pointing that out to you. If your a billionaire then bullying is not an issue. Boo hoo. Yeah than it's not an issue

1:01:24 By talking about his policies that he doesn't have? Well, clearly she's never looked at his website. That's just a lie! You may not agree... Well that's a great lie I like that lie. ...you may not agree with this policy but you certainly has him They like to do that one all the time Hillary pushes that the most and Hillary I've never heard her have a solution for anything Oh, come on give me break here This is a guy who just went on national television and said basically to all of America be afraid of each other. And you listen, I didn't hear that. Be afraid of each other? I heard united unified were dreamers we can do it of each other and

1:02:07 And you listen to a speech like that, and I don't know how there's anybody left in America who isn't afraid of Donald Trump. And this is the big thing it's dangerous be afraid of him. That was also that's also in the WikiLeaks Yes oh yeah Dangerous Donald which never took off that was trying to counter Crooked Hillary with Dangerous Donald Yeah, that did take off. Quick one here this was uh oh this is CNBC Joe Kernan and he was talking to the Clinton Cash author of the book which as you saw Breitbart Breitbart was actually interesting how this worked. You had anonymous promoting this 19-minute Clinton crimes, which was a setup to the WikiLeaks release. Then we have the WikiLeaks release, Breitbart in complete concert.

Clinton Cash Documentary and Media Silence

The documentary "Clinton Cash," based on Peter Schweizer's book, was released for free on Breitbart, detailing alleged quid pro quo arrangements involving the Clinton Foundation. The film covers topics such as the transfer of US uranium interests to Russia. Critics noted that despite front-page investigative reports in major newspapers, Hillary Clinton has rarely been questioned about these specific allegations in debates.

1:02:07 And you listen to a speech like that, and I don't know how there's anybody left in America who isn't afraid of Donald Trump. And this is the big thing it's dangerous be afraid of him.

1:03:42 uh... television channel but he does say something interesting so here's what happens laureate education out hires bill clinton as the honorary chancellor he gets sixteen million dollars the head of laurier education and i mean douglas becker also runs a non-profit called international youth foundation which is less than a mile away in terms of where the laureate offices are uh... the state department sends fifty five million dollars to international youth foundation which then does joint projects with laureate education. That to me is something that warrants serious investigation well maybe there is something going on did you see laura ingram's speech at the convention? At the end she pointed

1:04:29 up to all the media booths at the very top and said, when do you finally go and look at phonies and hypocrites? And when do you do your job? When will that happen? Where is Woodward and Bernstein on any of this. Is that you? It's a great question. I mean, you know, I have to say the investigative units of The New York Times Washington Post... I heard you ramping up for it but i had already set it up ABC News have done very good work in this area the most shocking thing to me is all this stuff has come out last year from page story New York Times Washington Post and all

1:05:11 All the debates and all the interviews that Hillary Clinton has done with the mainstream media, she has not been asked one question by the media on these topics. Which to me is shocking! I think any other political figure in America with a 4,000 word front page investigative piece in The New York Times alleging money from the Russian government, the transfer of uranium would at least warrant one question from the mainstream media in terms of a political debate and it's never happened. It's really shocking to me." Yeah, I agree. Oh it's so shocking! It's never seen...I'm shocked! Shocked! Someone sent me a clip from i think a month ago from Daryl

1:05:51 uh... congressman daryl isa and this of course must have been on fox but i hadn't heard this before. I might point something out that has nothing to do with today but it's everything to do with tomorrow there was an ongoing investigation of the clinton foundation another cash flowed in from sources in russia around the world that ongoing investigation includes a president states essentially recruit this money and Hillary Clinton would do things that were beneficial to these companies, these countries in some case. That is still ongoing and so that may be as troubling as why was he on the airplane when in fact he may have been guilty of wrongdoing himself in another investigation going on that the FBI director has not been willing to talk about? There is definitely something going on still. The Clinton Foundation isn't you know it

Darrell Issa on Clinton Foundation Investigations

Congressman Darrell Issa stated that investigations into the Clinton Foundation regarding foreign donations from Russia and other nations are ongoing. Issa suggested that Bill Clinton's meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch on a private plane may be linked to these broader investigations. The FBI's willingness to discuss these matters remains a point of political contention.

There is definitely something going on still. The Clinton Foundation isn't you know it

1:06:41 know, it meant something meant nothing may come of it. But there's investigations going on for sure. Maybe just I think we should probably take a break and then move on to the next topic. Tim Kaine, I think we should talk about that. Yeah, Tim Kaine. I'll just end it with Chris Matthews who of course did not at all like the Republican convention everybody was pretty tired you know but i was listening to a number of the serious channels because they were all live The POTUS channel and of course which I just call the gay channel is crazy this progressive channel has no straight voices on anymore feel alienated

Chris Matthews and the Democratic Convention Preview

MSNBC host Chris Matthews previewed the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, predicting a high presence of Hollywood celebrities and "bold print" names. Matthews characterized the upcoming event as the "city of brotherly love and sisterly affection," which some interpreted as a nod to the party's focus on LGBTQ identity.

No Agenda Art and Donor Recognition

The show recognized various artists for their contributions, including a Pokemon Go-themed piece by Jay Young. Sir David Rose donated $800.85, requesting a remix of Barack Obama and a Peyton Manning clip. The hosts discussed the process of selecting "evergreen" art versus pieces specific to current events.

1:09:06 The Pokemon Go artwork, I like the most of what we even like most is how he had done the no agenda font in the in the pokemon font. I don't know if that's existing you can probably get that out there I guess. The fonts are probably available but it was very good. It was not easy to find The art we wanted. There was multiple good pieces. There was a lot of good pieces and we had the couple debates, and then we always have this thing people should know this that's why you shouldn't give up there is number of piece I think at least two in that batch that were...the conversation goes like this well we can use because it is very specific to what we talked about This is kind of specific to what we talked about but when we talk about again It might be a good evergreen piece

1:09:50 And so then we push it off. So some pieces that are...so then we go for what we consider the best art per se. Yeah And it's just we spend a good 20 or 22 minutes on this 20 minutes sometimes Say well actually something has drag on but and then when we have to go to the evergreen says oh my yeah We just keep plowing through them But but the appreciation, we have for the artists doing. This is very very high That's why we always talk about the artist even before we thank people who've donated funds so we do appreciate it

1:10:25 Yes, yes. It adds a dimensionality to the podcast that no other show has. Yes.

Podcast Production and Global News Updates

The hosts discussed the physical toll of producing long-form episodes during a heavy news cycle, including the coup in Turkey and the terror attack in Nice. Recent reports from Germany detailed a machete attack in Reutlingen near Stuttgart. A donor working at a Facebook data center in North Carolina requested more three-hour shows, despite the hosts' concerns about "running out of steam."

1:12:34 Beautiful town for a city. I Duke Nussbaum here Working away at the Facebook data center, please more three-hour shows no jingles required Yeah, so he lives in Virginia Beach, Virginia But he's working actually sent me He's working at the data center enough said we'll never mention that again because it's good for us now What he's referring to is the mailing I sent out on Saturday, where because we had very little money coming in on the PayPal account. I bitched about it. I think you hate our show and it's too long and I do complain with you know this shows supposed to be two hours of 45 minutes. Let me say that the number one thing we talk about after the show was was it too long?

1:13:25 Yes, this is true. We always talk about it and I'm mostly and i'm grousing more than he did Adam does well And you're grousing because you don't It's just technically not possible for you to really have control over that and I try to have control but I am out of control So it's always my fault yes This is true because you are the producer so with the show goes long yeah? It's because you let it go along so when I when I see your newsletter Of course, I feel personally responsible and I agree. I totally agree with you. I mean...I have not- I don't think I've worked as many hours in a day for these shows the past...really the past month than ever in the entire history of this show." We've gone long! We've gone 309 on one of these shows and then this one which I tried to put the kibosh on by bitching about it during the show

1:14:18 We went three or two, we're still over three. And I like it if it was under three at least it's okay well this is under three because less is more and this is just programming This is how you program your show Yeah we don't... here's the end what that's right less is more and here's one of the things that we want to avoid which is running out of steam yeah At the end in a show when people say well okay instead of what you really want to do when you do these shows as you want people to want more I mean, that's just an old way of doing things. And that's why when... Oh! I wish the show was longer Exactly so when you see donations support for the show low then we know we failed one way or the other there was clearly not enough demand at the end of the show for more show i get it and i feel more responsible than you should actually well you can feel responsible but this is beside the point it just happens yeah now uh We've been doing this for a while we know how this works

1:15:16 Now we have a bunch of people that donated because I sent this thing in complaining and you know it gets to people, okay well donate finally. A lot of people first timers but they all say no I like it long! There's not one person says your right John Yeah I did Yes, except Adam. So you know... It has been quarter to three almost every night that I get to bed and 730 awake it's insane! And we had one see if we had the if we hired a producer then it wouldn't work because we can't afford to hire a producer so we do it ourselves right which is also a big benefit because you're doing it yourself it's you get to do exactly what you want to do you don't have to explain go back and say oh this is no good

1:16:04 But I'm just saying physically tiring. That's all, I'm just saying physically tiring right now. Well these conventions are rough and it chews up a lot of the show... Yeah but its not just conventions John! No screw that we had a coup in Turkey We had a shooting in Nice There was two more people killed today in Germany with the guy with the machete Another machete? Yes! You sure it's not the same old machete? No, this is in Roedlingen which is right near Stuttgart. Let me see... yeah, how many people... oh man killed one person woman wounded two others

1:16:41 Yeah, I mean so you know. I can't leave that alone after the show! I gotta go look into that my phone is already blowing up...I get pictures everything i'm the media you can't trust them you can't rely on them they don't have to have anything for you because well we have to vet it first yeah well I don't need to vet the guy bleeding on the street that comes from our intelligence network I get it Kevin Rosenberg comes in with $337 and 23 cents He's in Albuquerque, New Mexico. 33723 and all he says is his note is Kevin Rosenberg, Albuquerque, New Mexico Hello! Kevin Rosenberg thank you for your courage And maybe he has got something I didn't see any email but maybe there was something I'll check while we move on Okay and we will give him some karma whatever the case Yeah I'l do it right now

Travel Anecdotes and Macon Georgia

A discussion about Macon, Georgia, highlighted the town's old-fashioned atmosphere but noted a significant bug problem at local gas stations. The hosts compared Macon to more picturesque Southern cities like Savannah and Charleston. The segment included a brief mention of the Zika virus in relation to the insect population.

1:17:31 You've got karma. No, I got nothing on Rosenberg. Another this has no known...I did look in the email to find something Jason Lewis came in from Macon Georgia 333 33 making Georgia by the way have been through I find this to be one of them other fascinating towns and Georgia it is so old-fashioned It's still alive. It's not like a dead town I it's a very I liked that Jamaican Georgia. I think was really great as driving through him hanging out I think I spent the night there and I Think I've been in Macon do they have the the trolleys still driving to their seat mainly for tourists now But it's trolleys, and you have died over

1:18:13 remember. Tree-lined streets and it's very... Well, this is not that picturesque but there was one thing I said this is a town I think a lot of people could easily live in its very comfortable the people are very nice until then I went to get gas and I was kind of nixed on the town as any sort of place you want to live because at the gas station on every pillar there was one of these electric bug zappers And there was piles of bugs that was at least three feet high. That's it all you heard with millions of bugs yeah but there's no Zika in Macon yet you're right I was thinking of Savannah I'm mistaken oh so that is dynamite yeah thank you Anna is one of the Savannah and Charleston for people who want to travel the United States two are the most picturesque towns uh in the world

1:19:06 Yeah, anyways. Thank you at any but anyway, Macon's got a lot of bugs DJ the millennial came in 333 3333 from Cambridge Massachusetts nuts I'm so grateful to you for you both for what you do I often listen to each show multiple times and have hit several my friends and My boss in the mouth over the last few years after reading the newsletter I realize it is time to step up and start my path to knighthood.

Christoph, a former resident of Switzerland who moved to the US in 2013, was knighted as "Sir Christoph the Cantankerous." He cited the show's coverage of the 2013 Ukraine crisis as a turning point in his media consumption.

1:19:57 He says like I want you to continue to be awesome. Mm-hmm do what you do best deconstruct the news and protest reality protect reality One of this just briefly Thank You DJ the millennial but how about Ivanka saying? I'm a millennial because they put a different face on Millennials for me Yes, she did say that. I thought that was very interesting. I liked it a lot of course its to appeal to the Bernie voters...I get it but It was well done and also like yeah if all Millennials were like her what a wonderful world this would be If there's not too much to ask and no one else is entitled I'd like to request the title Sir Valance Be Saved For My Eventual Knighthood Love And Light DJ The Millennial from Massachusetts he got no requests for sound so we'll give him a Karma and

1:20:51 moved to the associate execs. You've got karma, John Hyten Folsom California up here by the prison 250 bucks I visited that prison once during the era when it was Johnny Cash Johnny Cash who is a maximum security place Folsom's Prison Blues and it had Manson in it they send some lower their security rating He says one thing the shows are not too long. I enjoy three plus hour shows We should have an intermission maybe But also just record the intermission. Just have, you know for like 10 minutes and I can go to the bathroom... Music? Yeah music!

Pythode? Pythode? Python. That's P-Y-T-H-O-U-D in Sun City, Arizona. 23456 one of my favorite donations since donations are low he says I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get my first associate executive producer ship and claim my place in the no agenda roundtable so he'd become a knight apparently

1:22:24 Uh, is he on the list? I think yes. He's seen he is on the list you guys saved my life or at least my sanity. I moved to the U S in 2013 from Switzerland get Monation cheese question mark no that would be Holland does give monation cheese thats lowlands nah its lowlands and banks as a result of marrying the love of my life uh give monations fondue Oh, I like it. That's what it'll be. Invonation fondue. Probably high cuisine As I settled down wanting to be informed about what was going on in my new country... ...I started exposing myself to the mainstream media and put it mildly It felt very wrong from the outset

1:23:12 Like it would slowly but surely render me insane or stupid. This is the transition from one dimension to the other, where you hear the same information... process it differently. You know, like you have a broadcast programming top of the hour of the news. Then we got to like easy programming top 40 radio first of all it really starts at 46 past the hour because that's when you come out of commercials you want to be first out of commercials with a huge hit then you're going to play two more top forties then get top of the hour then you get a recurrent thing you get a golden old then go to the top 10 hit that's programming but programming of course is also and it's this

1:24:10 two sides of the same coin. It's like code, you know? You can have code that runs a computer or you can have code that runs your brain and makes you feel good about certain things—the order of songs! So that's why I came up with it." I'm sorry i asked. But you'll be even more sorry later then. Uh-oh Fortunately, I'm a long-time fan of John's since the golden days when PC Magazine was a five pound paper publication. It was! Yeah it was and even those were the good old days And even the ads were interesting yes yes that is true. And i would always read John's column first so I decided to check out No Agenda Show

1:24:51 Boy, do I regret not doing that sooner. The first podcast I listened to opened my eyes on what was really going on in Ukraine late 2013 and shattered my worldview. Also became an instant fan of the smart and authentic Adam McCurry since then I've been hooked, hooked! I tell you... And converted all my subscriptions to dishonest publications like Newsweek or converting it means he cancelled The Washington Post, Economist, Wired etc. into donations to always convert it into donations of the show I wish every free rolling douchebag out there would do the same so that you guys could go on for a very long time Very nice So he will be knighted as Sir Christoph the Cantankerous A name suggested by his beloved Gitmo Nation fondue Lady Christine

1:25:44 And that's supposedly, supposedly that reflects his personality. No jingle request to compensate for the long note just some home-building and startup karma. Of course we can give that to you. Happy to do it. Oh John I forgot to clip it Did you notice Ivanka how she would have this slight little Giggle when she was in between Sentences no oh Crap I'm now a man. I didn't clip it she had this cutest thing to you You're like call me has that book that kind of gutterally mumbles. She hasn't I'll dig it up for Thursday very cute anyway onward yeah, she's everybody's

Ivanka Trump Plastic Surgery Rumors and Donor Credits

The hosts discussed social media rumors regarding Ivanka Trump's alleged plastic surgery costs, which some users claimed reached $820,000.

CHAPTER 29 / 52 Discussion

Peter Thiel's RNC Speech and Coming Out

Billionaire Peter Thiel's speech at the Republican National Convention was noted for his public declaration of being "proud to be gay." The hosts suggested this was Thiel's first explicit public "coming out," despite his previous legal battles with Gawker Media over his privacy. Thiel argued that "culture wars" distract from the nation's economic decline.

peter thiel· gawker· silicon valley· republican platform· coming out

1:32:59 Shut up! Before we get into heavy clips or anything, I think we should... I want to say that i also read both platforms. Now of course the party platform Republican or Democrat doesn't necessarily mean that's what their nominee is going to fight for but it should be The thing that I heard most often about the Republican platform was pretty much went as following

1:33:37 Most LGBT unfriendly in history. Well then you want to play my clip of Peter Thiel? Here we go, Peter Thiel! I am proud to be gay. I am proud to be a Republican but most of all proud to be an American Lock him up!

1:34:21 I don't pretend to agree with every plank in our party's platform, but fake culture wars only distract us from our economic decline. And nobody in this race is being honest about it except Donald Trump. Now the thing, and I didn't get this clip for a whole bunch of reasons but most response from the media who wanted to really rip him to shreds and he was pretty short speech and you know most of course say this is the asshole the billionaire who's trying to kill free speech by suing Gawker out of existence...I want to point out that that the reason why Peter Thiel is angry is because they outed him and I believe this is actually his real coming out. I don't think he has ever said anywhere, ''I'm gay.'' Did he actually come out anywhere even after Gawker did that? So there's a place to come out at the Republican National Convention! And I thought that was genius no one picked up on it or they didn't want to. You have standing ovation for them Yeah now I'm talking media I don't care about people their media media media everyone

1:35:25 just, you know, pounding...sorry bad word. But yeah I think he came out at the Republican National Convention that needs to be commended. You know these guys are..I thought most of the speakers like their religious...the preacher was great and there's a lot of these people who gave speeches I thought it was a good group of people. Now what we need to talk about as we move into the WikiLeaks DNC hashtag is two things, one well we have you know Twitter it's hard to see but I could say arguably they were definitely downplaying trending of these Wikileaks

CHAPTER 30 / 52 Discussion

Facebook and Twitter Censorship of WikiLeaks

Facebook and Twitter were accused of suppressing links to the leaked DNC emails from WikiLeaks. Users reported receiving warnings that the links contained "malicious code" or were "unsafe," preventing them from being posted or shared. This action was characterized as a dangerous escalation of social media censorship.

facebook· twitter· wikileaks· dnc emails· malicious code

1:36:08 But Facebook really did something quite extraordinary. Oh yeah, and even if you wanted to post a link in a post that contained the link to... I don't know if it's just Wikileaks.org or if its the full URL to the DNC hacked emails but you get a warning that says sorry this could possibly contain malicious code this is not safe you can't post this That is now this is so crazy that Facebook is doing this. One thing you should note, I want to just make this point they put the link there in the warning. Yes

1:36:53 So they said you cannot post this link and then they put the link. So if somebody wanted to cut and paste it, just see what the hell they're talking about. Yeah true but no I'm sorry first it was when you tried to click on a link from a post that would say warning but then when you wanted to post onto Facebook he would not allow you to post if had those links. You see the difference? I do see the difference, but the one i saw was the one that... Yes. I understand but you don't know.. You're not on Facebook so if you go onto Facebook which you're not and you want to make a post hi friends look at this great link and you post a wing to the link to the WikiLeaks DNC you get a warning saying we can't post this because it has dangerous content That's the morning when that I retweeted that somebody posted on Twitter

1:37:42 And it does have the link in there. Oh my god, you're not understanding... Not the link! They don't have a link they have the- John I understand what your saying but I- It's not true. Okay so People had posted this link. Then Facebook said, hey this link is dangerous and it has the link you can copy and paste it but after that if you wanted to make a post about the wiki leaks It would not let you make the post so there was two levels of escalation Okay now what Facebook and Twitter are doing is not only dumb Is incredibly dangerous? And let me just explain it briefly And this of course is from my mind influenced by the great work of Professor Theodore.

CHAPTER 31 / 52 Discussion

Social Media as a Societal Venting Mechanism

A theory was proposed that social media serves as a vital "venting" mechanism for societal frustrations. By allowing people to argue online, these platforms may prevent physical aggression from spilling onto the streets. The hosts argued that removing this outlet through censorship could lead to increased civil unrest and riots.

programming· advertising· social media· riots· venting

1:38:25 So we talked earlier about programming, you know the media term. It's also the action of putting instructions into something so these really come together particularly in TV for as long as we've had television and we don't bring it up enough anymore I think on this show. TV programming is solely meant to sell you advertising. I don't care what anyone else says it used to be different with news. It used to be different with news right? He was a lost leader. I think with pure news, yes. It used to be that way but now news is also a profit center. Drug companies own it. Yes and okay so drug companies then we'll say all programming on television ultimately is meant for you to see ads and buy products and enough of you to come in so that they can tell the advertisers your increase in products is because of our advertising

1:39:17 But what this does is it creates a cycle. It's a fear cycle, and we've talked about this too. You don't buy this car you'll never get laid. You don't have this beer...you're certainly never going to get laid! If you don't take this medication your family is gonna fall apart and wind up in a depression hole where you'll have anal leakage. All of that stuff. So we have this cycle And, of course now you're in this, oh I have to buy this. You can't afford it so you get into debt and the frustration happens and I think the frustration was really growing to a pretty big proportion and then we got social media. What I think now I'm really understanding is that social media was so great because the unheard people... not everyone has the voice, everyone wants to be heard

1:40:03 and this is what comments are about, etc. You just want to say no I believe in this and someone comes in you argue and it's quite safe to do this back-and-forth. You can call each other names, you can do whatever you want but it's a way to vent your frustrations And of course some of its an echo chamber but really what you want is... and I can show you example after example post something someone from the counterpoint comes in 15 pages of argument ensues but people are getting some of their aggression out If you remove that, if you remove the opposition there will be no one left to argue with and to be angry about. And this is going to make it spill onto the streets

1:40:45 it is the most dangerous thing for them to do. I think that we would have had riots and problems certainly in the United States years ago if it were not for social media, of course it started with blogs and then comments and from comments who went to you know the shorter form and the Facebook form which is really interactive but you can't even paste In in by in line links and stuff. I mean Facebook is meant to keep you there, but it's all about the discourse You take that away The trouble is going to come and it's because there's no more outlet And then by the way All you need is one guy to say this I am your voice and that's all you need It's genius But I think it's very very dangerous what's happening and Facebook

1:41:34 They need and and and Twitter they need to be aware of this. Okay, couple things I like this theory And I think you're correct and in fact since I'm the cycle guy we have missed somehow a cycle of Black riots besides the one in Ferguson right where their towns burnt to the ground well Ferguson pretty much was it but you didn't see any much more than that like you did in the 60s. Detroit was burned to the ground and Los Angeles, Watts riots, those sorts of things are major major things right? And there wasn't a kind of triggering mechanism it was just frustration here's the only thing I would take issue with these guys

CHAPTER 32 / 52 Discussion

The "Bozo Filter" and Social Media Moderation

The "Bozo Filter," a moderation tool used in early online forums, was discussed as a potential alternative to outright banning users. The filter allows a disruptive user to continue posting, but their messages are only visible to themselves, effectively "shunning" them without their knowledge. The hosts suggested this would be more effective for platforms like Twitter than the current block or mute functions.

mark zuckerberg· jack dorsey· bozo filter· irc· shunning

1:42:19 are true believers. Zuckerberg and Dorsey, they are Democrats like every other billionaire which these guys are both every other billionaire in the country they're Democrats people have to get we talk about this a lot the rich our Democrats they're not Republicans the Republicans typically or upper middle class maybe some some upper-class but not as much as the Democrats Buffett's a Democrat Gates is a Democrat Ballmer is a Democrat all these guys are Democrats And Peter Thiel is one of the few Republicans in the group. Milo, Milo. Milo! So what you have is these guys think they're doing the party a favor... They don't give a hoot about what you just said? No I know they don't. Of course they don't give a hoot about it

1:43:09 And in fact, I expect... and here's another throwback. I expect Facebook soon to be using a new version of the Bozo filter. I think that's where they're gonna go. The Bozo filter is a fabulous idea! And I'm sad that the Bozo filter went away. Perhaps you should explain the Bozo filter for our younger listeners. We actually used to use the Bozo filter on early PC Magazine online forums And what it is, and I call for it every once in a while. What a Bozo filter is that it creates a piece of code that you are identified as Bozo Eric B., and you're making trouble into forums. You're just making a fuss and nobody likes you. So they- Excuse me by the way VoidZero Mountain Vortex listen up thank you

1:44:05 So you are a jerk in the forums and you got to be controlled, but you can't just bounce all the time or end up like there's certain... Podcasts that have the keep bouncing people and they get ridiculed for it. And the guys come in with different names They do all these different things they become subversive The bozo filter just is like a flag on your name so you keep posting There's no evidence that you're gonna be bounced or you look like you're still there and here So you're posting but nobody sees it, but you do so you look at this red and you see your post think right

1:44:41 But no one's responding. You see the rest of the forum, everything looks normal except your posts are actually not going on the big forum it just goes on a kind of fake version of the form that you're seeing so to see your own oh I posted well i don't understand why nobody is saying anything to me and you go on and then pretty soon you realize you're a bozo in fact I would recommend certainly to Twitter if you want to block somebody instead The block function, the way it works now is when you block you don't see anything. That person doesn't know they're blocked because they continue to see you but no one who is mentioned in the tweets will know except you will see your response to it and so you just keep thinking that you're a part of it. They did add the mute filter.

1:45:33 Right, but it's a mute filters kind of like a bozo filter because you're not you don't appear to be blocked even though You're you're blocked. Yeah But it's funnier if your then muted your your Bozo for the whole network not just for one person It's funnier If you just posting and posting and you'll eventually oh man this thing sucks Go away. No, that is true It's better if you're the bozo for them So we should have that in the chat room no more banning or kicking just someone put them in the Bozo filter so they think They're making all these funny comments But no one sees it but then why does this not exist in our chat room already? It's called shun actually Thank You Mountain Vortex yeah put that in man That's cool I like that well bozos funnier than Shun Well, that's just what its called an IRC land, but we'll call it bozo

CHAPTER 33 / 52 Discussion

Republican vs. Democratic Party Platforms

A comparison of the 2016 party platforms revealed that the Republican document does not explicitly mention "LGBT" but emphasizes parental rights in choosing therapy for children. In contrast, the Democratic platform specifically lists rights for various identity groups, including women, people with disabilities, and the LGBTQ community. The hosts analyzed how these documents are framed by the media.

party platform· lgbt· conversion therapy· systemic racism· criminal justice

1:46:19 All right, well I guess that's enough. Okay where were you? Oh okay so now back to the...I think we should talk about oh actually about the um uh the platforms i read both platforms and this this idea that the most LGBT or it actually the quote is most anti-LGBT platform in history and what and you remember I told you about the conversion therapy I said this is... We all know about that. Yeah, but it's not in the platform. In fact the word LGBT, the acronym LGBT is not even on the platform now they do talk about interesting very tricky language uh children are best suited by two parents they don't necessarily say to of the same parents which I thought was interesting

1:47:06 They don't say, you know opposite sex parents. And there is no... the conversion therapy has come from a portion about medical care where and of course it could be used for this no doubt where the platform says parents should have the right to determine what kind of therapy their children get That's it? That's it. So that's what everyone is interpreting as conversion therapy, a big promotion I was under the impression not having read this knowing you would I was under the impression that there's in there... You can do conversion therapy on these crazy gays! It's just not in there The acronym is not even in there So LGBT whatever is not in there at all

1:47:58 No, the platform talks about all people universally which I think is why Trump didn't have any other mention really of you know racism etc because their idea is and I don't know if that's playing yet but their idea is we don't care. And I think Trump kind has tried to say that but I don't give a shit what acronym you have you know one protect you yeah it's not gonna fly with you. I know I know There is nothing in here. Now you can construe it that way and maybe it was put in with that language to do that, and even so I have to agree...I don't agree with the practice but if you want to put your kid into some kind of therapy for whatever reason

1:48:38 versus necessarily drugging them up, which is the preferred method. You should have that right so I'm not quite sure if that's in there as a code but there is nothing, nothing in here The only reason why it can be called the most anti-LGBT platform in history Is because it doesn't specifically say what they're going to do for LGBT And if you look at the Democrat party platform They have a very different approach Even if you just read the table of contents, you can almost look at this and say okay let me see. Raise incomes and restore economic security for the middle class. That's not me I don't care. Create good paying jobs? I might read that. Fight for economic fairness yeah okay ah bring Americans together and remove barriers to opportunity so

1:49:26 Ending systemic racism, closing the racial wealth gap, reforming our criminal justice system. Guaranteeing civil rights, guaranteeing women's rights, guaranteeing lesbian gay bisanxial and transgender rights, guaranteeing rights for people with disabilities... So what you do is go, what are they gonna do for me? Let me go to women's rights let me go to civil rights They break it down specifically by every individual group which I think might be a mistake Just, you know because that's all... I don't know. It just doesn't really matter that much but i did want to say that absolutely. Okay well glad you didn't because I didn't know. Absolutely and yeah well I read these things you know? I like that now the um the WikiLeaks this has been a lot of fun! Um I think we both picked up some uh some stuff. The most egregious ones were paying people that Democratic National Committee paying people to protest

CHAPTER 34 / 52 Discussion

DNC WikiLeaks and Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Leaked DNC emails revealed internal efforts to undermine Bernie Sanders' campaign, including discussions about questioning his faith. As a result, DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz was pressured to resign and was removed from her speaking slot at the convention. The emails also showed a close relationship between the DNC and journalists at The Washington Post and The New York Times.

debbie wasserman schultz· bernie sanders· dnc· wikileaks· jeff weaver

1:50:21 Yeah, and if you can't get enough people send out the interns. Send the interns! I don't want to go out there!! Now the one that i thought was we already kind of knew some of this but the fundraiser by The Washington Post for Hillary Clinton? Are you kidding me?! The Washington Post hosted a fundraiser It's unbelievable. I said this, if you remember a number of weeks ago... I said the Washington Post cannot be trusted and i only came to that conclusion based on the way they were acting now. Now, I didn't know any of these details but that's outrageous! But not a surprise

1:51:03 No, not a surprise. So what is great about this is just there's tons of stuff and I'm sure that if you hacked into the RNC server are you going to get the same stuff in the other direction? There's no doubt about it but they have framed the talking points, the dangerous Donald meme Let's see, the journalist from The New York Times offering to spin coverage for the DNC in exchange for a Hillary quote. I mean this is paying-for-access quid pro quo... Which you're not supposed to do! If you're a journalist, you might want to consider not doing it. That's what they criticize The National Enquirer for doing all of time and that to me sounds like just a version of the same thing

1:51:45 Debbie Wasserman Schultz, of course. Now she is not going to be speaking at the convention Which is a big deal. I mean, you might as well just be fired, I guess. You know they can't deal with that They're trying to do whatever they can for the fallout. Isn't she gonna come out at least gavel the thing? She may gavel but she won't apparently speak and this of course was going to be a very important speech for her. She is so corrupt which is the perfect word Most of these leaked memos or emails are about how to screw over Bernie Yeah And that is now and so we had the hashtag Bernie must what is it denounce devolve? What does the hashtag started started last night. Someone someone else, so what they all want is Bernie to run as an independent

1:52:39 Which of course is the funniest thing because I believe the numbers will show that if anyone, particularly Bernie Sanders tries to run for as an independent that would split the vote and Trump would win. Oh yeah easily So he's damned if he does damned if he doesn't which is just an amazing place to be Particularly when it's so obvious how screwed how he got screwed Yeah, let's call him a Jew. Let's call him an atheist that'll play well in Kentucky one of the members goes all West Virginia and Kentucky they'll be susceptible if we Jew him out I have a clip about Debbie Washington I think the buzz in Washington is that this is not the way Democrats wanted to get started no shit party continues to make concessions to the Bernie Sanders camp hoping to keep the peace

1:53:34 The rules committee, we know agreed on what sounds like a task force or whatever to try to reduce the number of convention superdelegates. That's something Sanders has been pushing for sources in the party leadership widely acknowledging though how awkward this situation is right now thanks to WikiLeaks The decision not to have Debbie Wasserman Schultz speak is more than just the chair of the party sacrificing herself for the good of the process. DNC Chair was criticized by the Bernie Sanders campaign as showing favoritism toward Hillary Clinton, and though she and other top Democrats denied it, the leaked emails are evidence of the bad blood that was boiling behind-the-scenes

1:54:12 So, you have that email from May. Debbie Wasserman Schultz appearing to be very upset with public statements by Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver criticizing the Nevada Democratic Party after protests. She writes, damn liar particularly scummy that he barely acknowledges the violent and threatening behavior that occurred." And then you have that email quoting Weaver as saying I think we should go to the convention with Wasserman Schultz saying He's an ass. So, I mean it is very tough language and very frank language the kind of language you hear in politics all the time that these are Democrats talking about each other just sort of plays into the narrative that Bernie Sanders people have been pushing for some time Christy

CHAPTER 35 / 52 Discussion

Protests and "Summer of Chaos" at the DNC

Protest groups like Code Pink and Black Lives Matter prepared for significant demonstrations at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia. Performance artist Vermin Supreme was noted for his presence at the RNC, where he used humor to de-escalate tensions between protesters and police. The "Summer of Chaos" narrative was discussed in the context of these ongoing demonstrations.

code pink· vermin supreme· black lives matter· philadelphia· protests

1:54:58 The thing to note is that the Republicans and the Democrats, even though the Republican had... The Republicans had a bunch of protesters. They were all obviously bought and sold by the DNC which was going on during the Trump campaign too. The Democrats have real protesters because the youth of the Democrat Party can... Which tends to be you know a little more liberal than the mainstream of the party they're progressive if not communists They are they can be incredibly violent and this part. This is not a rigged thing I mean the Republicans aren't buying people to go to protest this could be a Get out of hand kind of a mess. Yeah, yeah, I agree I agree And I think it will be and we know that the summer of chaos was also targeting the DNC not just the RNC

1:55:50 But we have the new term from Code Pink. It was so fun to see, what's her name? Medina is that the lady from code pink who was a who was the protester during Trump speech? The lone protester yeah So that's code pink and it's medina you can tell by the hairdo immediately But they are calling it the, but they go raising a ruckus is their slogan. We're going to raise a ruckus but they're going to raise quite a ruckus at the DNC as well. They have a list of protests that they're scheduling About 15 different venues where they're going to show up and protest. So, there's gonna be a lot of protests and I think also man what happened to the summer of chaos? What happened to all the death and destruction with the crazy Republicans in the KKK and the white supremacists and the cops and everybody killing each other no do you know who actually did a lot of the blocking and calming down of the crowd if you're not gonna believe this vermin supreme

1:56:51 You know the guy with a boot on his head? Yeah, what about him? So Vermin Supreme. Now if you've never seen him and this is... I vote independent so that we can keep our country from being a two-party system so you can run as an independent. Yeah, you could be a kook with a boot on your head! And he's the guy that says every American when I'm president everyone gets a pony which i think is a great campaign slogan. So he was out there at And he, and the minute there was like a couple people and start to get angry. He'd start walking in front of them in between them and the cops with his megaphone just saying crazy shit but funny! And people started to laugh, the cops started to laugh it's I can't play clip because too much noise going on is just not audible enough

1:57:33 But even Black Lives Matter, you know people say hey these people are crazy narcissistic a-holes. You know they're drunk there they're nuts and Vermont Supreme comes in... I need to see one clip of this yeah right. And Vermont Supreme comes in saying hey these are my voters the crazy drunk people come on over here it was beautiful to see! Also there just weren't enough people and as I said before I believe that the fire ran out when lot of people started getting killed cops getting killed I think people just said screw that noise. I'm not going and probably a lot of the Bernie people are not voting, Not doing anything staying home done they don't care they switched off Pokemon Go! Yeah

CHAPTER 36 / 52 Discussion

State Department Press Pool and Pokemon Go

During a State Department briefing, spokesperson John Kirby caught a reporter playing Pokemon Go. The incident was cited as an example of the lack of focus within the modern press corps. Kirby interrupted his statement on the coalition to defeat ISIS to acknowledge the reporter's gaming.

john kirby· state department· pokemon go· press corps· mobile games

1:58:15 Which, I'm sure you saw this but i'll just play it. This is the State Department John Kirby interrupts his reading of a tab. Working group renewed its commitment to launching innovative international campaigns and expanding regional and global networks and accelerating global efforts to confront them in the information space as the secretary said earlier today though and I think it's important reminder You're playing the Pokemon thing right there, aren't you? I'm just kicking him out of it. It's an important reminder we know this- So the guy is playing Pokemon during- Yeah one of the reporters Part of this State Department press pool and he says well i'm just checking out the room seeing if there's anything here and then Don't be easy We recognize that its a challenge And were clear eyed about the work we still have to do This why we convene this important ministerial and will continue to work with our coalition partners To defeat Dash Did you get one No, the signal isn't very good

1:59:10 I'm sorry about that. Did you get one? He says, no the signal's not strong enough here That's your press corps right there, ladies and gentlemen. Playing Pokemon! Pokemon... That's pathetic. So play this uh we should talk a little bit about Tim Kaine I got a couple clips i want you to listen to okay but let's start with the Kane Saunders in the DNC WikiLeaks clip Latinos! Kane also proving he has what it takes to be The Attack Dog Do you want a trash-talking president or a bridge building president? Trump lashing out on Twitter. The Bernie Sanders supporters are furious with the choice of Tim Kaine, who represents the opposite of what Bernie stands for that dig a reference to some Democrats who argue Kane isn't a true progressive. Tim also has a backbone of steel just ask the NRA

CHAPTER 37 / 52 Discussion

Tim Kaine as Hillary Clinton's Running Mate

Hillary Clinton selected Senator Tim Kaine as her vice-presidential running mate. Kaine, a former Governor of Virginia, emphasized his Catholic faith and fluency in Spanish during his introductory speeches. Critics within the progressive wing of the Democratic Party expressed dissatisfaction with Kaine, viewing him as too centrist.

tim kaine· vice president· catholic· spanish· nra

1:59:59 So, here's how Hillary and I are going to continue that work with a strong progressive agenda. But today another potential hurdle... A trove of emails hacked from the Democratic National Committee and posted on WikiLeaks last night has created fresh scrutiny about whether the DNC was pushing for Clinton, including this one dated May 5th in which one party official seems to raise questions about Sanders' faith writing to the DNC communications director does he believe in a God? I think I read that he is an atheist. Sanders supporters speaking out tonight. I'm outraged as a Democrat because the DNC is supposed to be a neutral arbiter

2:00:41 Now, now there's just a kind of establishing clip but the beginning of that clip is interesting because this was a classic mainstream media report where they use it's the words they use. She says Trump just did some you know tweet it was like yeah this not what Bernie would want that's pretty much what he said but she prefaces with Trump lashing out! How is this lashing out? I didn't catch that. And then she says, then she uses the word dig as in... A slam a pounding. It's a slam, a pounding but lashes out so i got only one, I think Kane just a dud. A lot of people have identified that he probably had

2:01:32 Vasectomy he's got that look. Oh, I hadn't even considered that he does have that kind of shiny Look doesn't it? He's got that look yeah I also and I wouldn't know this is a good example what we can do on the show But you can't do any place else. He seems gay to me and I would like one of our gay producers didn't Do a gay dar thing because I ever sell the guy in person but he just seems gay to me But he did this he gave his speeches as opening speech and he He went, he did a lot of Spanish. But in the middle of this little chat here, he throws in what sounds like Latin? I think it's either talking in tongues or he...or I would like somebody to chat room is my opportunity as the chatroom for some help. Hold on we have some feedback Sam Hyde says, I'm a fag and he is a fag okay So that's a good start We have confirmation

2:02:28 race or economic status regardless of their religion or gender, regardless of their sexual orientation where they're from. We've got this beautiful country that should be a country of welcome that should be a country of inclusion and I know that is a fundamental value that Hillary Clinton shares I'm Catholic. I'm a Catholic. And Hillary is a Methodist, but her creed is the same as mine... Do all the good you can!

2:03:17 Soy Catolicum. Soy Catolicum. Yeah? Soy Catolicum, soy catolicum I'm a catholic Is that Latin? I don't know it sounds like Latin. Soy catolicum no the soy would be Spanish It doesn't sound Spanish because when he speaks Spanish, he speaks very fluently. He says soy católico, soy católico I am Catholic. Soy Católico, soy Católico, I'm a Catholic. Soy Católico, I'm a Catholic. Oh okay that's what you're saying right? I'm a Catholic. I'm a Catholic. Um... Okay fine Hey know what I think they should the slogan for this campaign You know I like alliteration

But its not as deep no as cane and unable that is dynamite Just this just in

CHAPTER 38 / 52 Discussion

Munich Shooting and European Migration Tensions

A shooting in Munich, Germany, carried out by an 18-year-old of Iranian descent, sparked renewed debate over European migration policies. NBC's Richard Engel linked the violence to "Brexit anger" and fears regarding Middle Eastern immigration. The discussion noted the media's tendency to frame these events as part of a broader "war" narrative.

munich· germany· brexit· syrian refugees· richard engel

2:04:38 the knifing in or machete or knifing near Stuttgart, a German citizen stopped this guy who was a Syrian refugee apparently who did this by running over him in his BMW. So there you go. Deutschlandübung! Good work I think that's great Who needs guns? You can knife people and we'll take care of you will protect you with our cover our BMWs fantastic We can make a little transition here, which has already helped. We were helped very much by the mainstream we would like to go from and you would talk a little bit about terrorism with what's been going on here is Richard Engel the documented liar filled with kudos and awards from the journalistic industry but we have uncovered his reporting as really really false

2:05:26 And listen what he does. It's also Brexit is part of this. No, I was just going to say Richard... This is about the Munich attack. Do you draw a straight line? I mean do you draw a straight line from basically the Syrian refugee crisis to Brexit to what we're seeing in Germany France I think you can draw a straight line. A lot of the Brexit anger was actually about internal European migration, the people in the UK were famously angry at the Poles because they were taking so many of the blue-collar jobs So there was that anger that things had already changed, the British society had already changed because of immigration. And then there was the fear somewhat unrealistic but there was this fear now all the Syrians and all the Middle Easterners are coming we've had the polls first and now what more is on its way? It's fundamentally un-British were losing our identity and these people went for you know went for that option

2:06:25 I do think it's having a major impact and there is talk of other countries following suit. Fences are going up. Okay, so it's because of Brexit and because the hate of the polls? Well that's very simplistic what you're saying there sir But MSNBC, the same organization. They took it to where it needs to go You know I think Brian one of the things that people need to keep in mind about this is we listen again and again and We talk again and again This guy sounds like Henry McCracken doesn't he? you know...I think that sometimes You hear that? I'm gonna crack it. Keep in mind about this as we listen again and again, we talk again and again about terrorism, about mass killings, about all these horrible things that are happening is how few people actually are involved in carrying them out because what we're looking at now in Europe and to some extent at the Republican Convention and in the discourse of the United States there's a lot of talk about war

2:07:22 As if we're talking about a massive operation, huge fifth columns enormous numbers of people. Even when we're talking about countries that have had a number of people go to Syria and train with ISIS and perhaps come back We are talking about a few hundred here in there Yet we're often talking as if we're going to go to war with a billion Muslims. And I think that we need to be very, very careful about that and you are very careful and NBC is very careful about that but the broader discourse is really kind of hysterical because the reaction that we all feel is that we want a simple solution. We want to be safe again. We don't want this to happen anymore."

CHAPTER 39 / 52 Discussion

Media as the Creator of "Monster" Donald Trump

Using the film "Forbidden Planet" as an analogy, the hosts argued that the media has created a "monster" in Donald Trump through constant fear-mongering and amplification. The theory suggests that the media's own "brain power" and obsession with Trump have manifested the very candidate they now claim to fear.

forbidden planet· media narrative· fear mongering· id monster· psychology

2:08:00 And so of course it is all about Brexit, which equals Republicans equals Trump and you just don't want all this bullshit in your country. Don't vote for Trump whatever you do. I find the biggest irony to this whole thing in terms of the Trump popularity Is that he only's doing his playing on the memes and imagery and fear mongering and fear porn Of the media who sides with Hillary Yes And it's just, you know, oh things aren't that bad. Well you're the one who just told us it was! Oh the whole country is racist and all these things are going on. Where'd that come from? Okay I mean they've created a... this is reminding me though this whole election cycle is reminding me of the movie Forbidden Planet

2:08:54 What was that again? The guy, he was there with his pretty daughter. Ivanka, the same looking woman and so this scientist is stuck on this planet and he says you guys can go away we can live fine without your help And he had discovered there was some sort of a civilization there before that had magnified its brain ability to such an extent that they could literally create a monster just by thinking about it. And so everybody amplified their brains with this huge machine that was buried in the ground, and everyone dreamed up these monsters! They killed each other—there wasn't anybody left!

2:09:37 Sounds like the media's been doing sounds like a feel-good movie and so the guy this one last guy went down He said what the hell is good. What the hell's with this thing puts it on his head now he has the power Now there's a monster roaming around and when they interlopers come in and one of them falls in love with the daughter The monster shows up and the monsters trying to kill him all they had in eventually they had to sacrifice himself To kill the monster because it was really his brain creating this again This is what the media has done. The media itself has created a monster called Donald Trump Yeah, yeah, they got nobody to blame but themselves

CHAPTER 40 / 52 Discussion

Andrea Mitchell and Comcast Corporate Interests

Andrea Mitchell's coverage of the Mike Pence rollout was criticized as being overtly biased in favor of Hillary Clinton. The hosts questioned why a corporation like Comcast would allow such one-sided reporting, suggesting it could invite federal scrutiny or shareholder backlash. The segment explored the "virus of the mind" that affects media professionals working in partisan environments.

andrea mitchell· alan greenspan· comcast· msnbc· objectivity

2:10:17 In fact, let's listen to a little more of this hate by this Andrea Mitchell. Got it. Andrea Mitchell the elite extraordinaire MSNBC and she is of course married too Alan Greenspan, former elitist chair of the Federal Reserve. Dog and also validator of Hillary Clinton that he spoke so much about her that she spoke so much about him and it was so different than the rollout of the Mike Pence vice presidential ticket just a week ago with Donald Trump walking off stage and not talking about Mike Pence but talking about himself they think this is really a home run This is a lie

2:11:04 It was just a lie because when he actually was with Pence, which is recently. He's standing on the stage the whole time. He doesn't have a problem talking about himself and walking off the stage that what they're talking about is when it was at the convention, Pence was giving his speech. What is Trump supposed to be up there? Like stand up? But you know how dumb it looks see Chris Christie. And he knows not to do that of course. Yeah but that's not the way Andrea Mitchell sees it. I want to say mention one thing here that you were talking about risks on Twitter and Facebook because of their attitude. I think there's a huge risk

2:11:42 And I must know that whether Trump holds a grudge or not, but if I was Comcast and I had this bull crap at MSNBC and NBC keeps rolling out just pounding tub thumping for Hillary. And not even trying to be objective like it's just shown with this Andrea Mitchell clip there are even trying if you listen to MNBC the nightly news is just one sided I don't see how a corporation that is under pretty much federal rules like Comcast... Are they though? Are they under federal broadcast rules? Some. FTC rules, FTC. Some some yes and Cable kind of doesn't have its rules that way i don't think well there are FTC issues

2:12:29 There's monopoly issues. There's all sorts of things that you if you wanted to harass the company make their lives miserable I think it's very doable and I don't know why they're inviting it They are inviting It and I would mention anybody as a shareholder in Comcast or maybe bring this up As a topic of conversation at a shareholders meeting, I just think is a bad idea And what's the different? Why don't you just be objective that you know what again These people believe their objective. They truly, no they don't! They truly believe it just like people who... everyone receives and processes information based upon their own programming and filters and how they were raised and really what you've been indoctrinated with It's a virus of the mind but I can't invalidate how someone else feels about something they see Who am i?

2:13:26 So I understand. I'm more interested in what is it exactly that makes you feel that way? And i think it's very superficial things, its imagery... like the Mussolini strut, the chin strut, its perception of shouting there are a lot of different things and once thats triggered I don't think you can even change it. You go pfff! so I dont think these people are stupid I don't think... on both sides. It's just how it is, but today we can share that quicker so it's easier to see it. But I don't think the media is necessarily lying they're in a milieu of complete you walk down the hallway hey there's Rachel Maddow boy Trump's a dick yeah what are you gonna say?

2:14:14 That's your programming. That's how it goes, that's how it works." I'm sorry! Which is why people always talk about feeling so healthful... healthy when they listen to our show because they get different viewpoints. They get analysis that makes sense but I still think Comcast was making a mistake So let's talk a little bit about the Munich thing because I just have one little thing. I want to do, I want to play him a clip from one of the mainstream media things that has a little kicker on it then I want to read this story about a terror attack in San Francisco

CHAPTER 41 / 52 Discussion

Munich Shooting Details and "Shelter in Place"

The Munich shooter utilized a Glock 17 with an extended magazine, firing approximately 16 shots. During the event, authorities and media advised millions of residents to "shelter in place," a tactic the hosts criticized as promoting unnecessary fear. Residents were also told not to post information on social media to avoid helping the perpetrator.

munich· glock 17· shelter in place· social media· gun control

2:14:54 And what is this clip? The clip would be ABC Munich. Americans should shelter in place! In the meantime, to the other breaking headline at this hour... The terrifying moments overseas There had been an urgent manhunt for the gunman and now word coming in at this hour of the suspect found dead Authorities say he killed himself An 18 year old Iranian It comes amid that warning for Americans in Munich to shelter in place and to contact loved ones. Several dead, and the number growing all afternoon in these shootings." Okay now I think it's about time we called out the media for this our government And then you're talking about Trump and his gloom and doom and whatever it is they dark when you have reports like this so I'm in Munich which has got millions of people

2:15:43 And some part of town, some maniac pulls out a... turns out it'd be a Glock 17. Yeah extended mag. I had to find out what the gun was because i heard 16 shots. Interesting you say that. I was like 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 like wow that was 16 shots and that must be an extended mag or there's multiple shooters. Glock 17 holds 17 shots yeah and he was on the roof and took a shot I think that was bullet number one then he went through the clip Yeah, it's a magazine John. Yeah, please. Please. Anyway so let's all shelter in place and sit around like scared little animals. In Munich! Shelter in place and call your relatives And please don't post anything on social media you're only helping the perpetrators plural Alright so here we go here's the headline this is from 100 years ago 100 years ago

1916 San Francisco Preparedness Day Bombing

A historical review of the 1916 Preparedness Day bombing in San Francisco highlighted a different societal response to terrorism. Despite a suitcase bomb killing 10 people and injuring 40 on Market Street, the parade continued over the "broken bloody ground." The hosts contrasted this "onward" attitude with modern "shelter in place" protocols.

san francisco· preparedness day· 1916· terror attack· market street

2:16:42 And this is what publication? This is in the San Francisco Chronicle. They revisited the story, the deadliest terror attack in San Francisco happened a hundred years ago today As members of the Grand Army, The Republic assembled at the Ferry Building awaiting the start of the San Francisco Lavish Preparedness Day Parade getting ready for World War I. One elderly veteran fainted... We used to have parades before going to war? Yeah. Damn man we need to bring that back!

2:17:20 Just as an elderly veteran fainted, just as an ambulance reached the fallen man and explosion shook Market Street. When the dust settled a bloody scene painted the street. The sidewalks ran red and all around bodies of men and women almost stripped of their clothes." By the way when you have these explosions which was just another bomb. It rips people's clothes off, that is something we haven't seen yet. Yes compression yeah it's a shockwave they lay in the horrible grotesque heaps wrote The Chronicle it remains the only terrorist attack in San Francisco history the day began as a great celebration but was not without controversy the parade is the biggest and his the parade was the biggest in city history at over 51 thousand marchers

2:18:08 This meant to celebrate the city's preparedness for World War I. The city was already at war with itself, however labor unions were locked in an all-out fight with business owners. Anarchists and antiwar demonstrators joined the voices against World War I and the nationalistic Prop Preparedness Day Parade. Days before the parade hundreds of businesses and individuals received a strange postcard in the mail that was written in pencil with many of the words underlined boldly And it goes on and the letters are saying you guys were gonna bomb the place. Despite the shocking blast, now this is the thing that compare this to cover and hold yourself at the corner like a little rabbit. Despite the shocking blast, the parade went on as scheduled. Bodies were still on the street when the parade continued over the broken bloody ground." Wow!

2:19:05 Among the rubble, police found the bomb and stored in market a suitcase packed with bullets and shrapnel set off by a timed explosion. Without a scrap of evidence they knew who was to blame then they framed some poor bastard for the thingy and it turned out that when investigations were done precursor to the FBI. Turned out that it was, the guy was framed and he had to be pardoned like 25 years later and it's just a crazy story! How many people died in this? 10 with 40 injured

2:19:45 I think it was interesting, it was packed with bullets. It's something we haven't heard this... Well no! Everyone said screw it parade onward with the parade No scout power in place just go! Yeah, a pair marching over the dead guys after the explosion taking their whole thing well there you go the anarchists were doing this stuff all the time They never did find the real bomber by the way, and they just march over yet. Marty We got to get this parade going you know hell with it now Okay Get those bodies out of here right well part of that Of course is because we've been promised eternal life almost and I was watching some George Carlin for inspiration am yo euphemisms

CHAPTER 43 / 52 Discussion

Obama on Terrorism and National Values

President Obama, interviewed by John Dickerson, argued that the best way to prevent terrorism is to avoid dividing the country or succumbing to fear. He criticized proposals for "religious tests" for immigrants, suggesting such measures betray American values. Critics pointed to the administration's use of predator drones as a contradiction to these stated values.

barack obama· john dickerson· predator drones· religious tests· newt gingrich

2:20:24 and how we've softened everything. We went from shell-shocked in the first world war to battle fatigue, right? I remember this bit... Yeah to eventually what we have today which is post traumatic stress disorder which removes the human element and actually the violence from it just removes everything so we've become desensitized and think that that we also just can live forever it's part of the promise you know we can send your kids to school retire with dignity that's the American dream according to President Obama Just kidding. Bye who did say something funny after the? coup in Turkey and obviously we can't discount how scary and shaken not just the Turkish government is but

2:21:13 Turkish society is. Imagine if you had some rump group of military officials here in the United States who started flying off with F-16s or other artillery and were taking shots at government buildings, and people were killed and injured? People would be scared! And rightfully so." I don't know we might be on the side of the military i'm not too sure about that That's an odd thing to say. Yeah, that was very strange he was also interviewed by John Dickerson who I've kind of admired as a CBS guy for working for the Central Intelligence Agency Broadcasting System and because Dickerson goes...I think he goes a little bit off script

2:21:59 Or he's got some other agenda, other than the normal agenda of CBS. Because there is a good clip of him talking about this taking place on Today, Face The Nation. But this is an excerpt from it and he actually follows up No, when somebody says something stupid and in this case he's talking to Obama who I really doubt will talk to him again In the future. Mr.. President when Donald Trump spoke to his convention He talked about the security threats how you talked that he painted a very dark picture now There's been a dark attack in Germany still have respect for him when he just did the whole dark thing Now there's been a terrorist CBS not true tag in Germany

2:22:40 Doesn't that suggest he's right about the darkness? No, it doesn't. Terrorism is a real threat and nobody knows that better than me One of the best ways of preventing is making sure we don't divide our own country That we don't succumb to fear Stop stop! One of the best ways to prevent terrorism Is to make sure we don't divide our own country What?! Yeah... What does that got to do with anything All right. Well, you know because he I guess he considers terrorism only if it's lone wolf domestic white guys I don't know what somebody is thinking with that one of the best ways Of preventing it Is making sure that we don't divide our own country That we don't succumb to fear that we don't sacrifice our values and That We send a very strong signal To

2:23:36 the world and to every American citizen that we're in this together. Explain how we would sacrifice our values specifically by being divided? Well, look if... Look! We start engaging in the kinds of proposals that we've heard from Mr Trump or some of his surrogates like Mr Gingrich where we start suggesting that we would apply religious tests to who could come in here that we are screening Muslim Americans differently than we would others, then we are betraying that very thing that makes America exceptional. I have two words for you predator drones. There ya go! Yeah of course Jimmy Carter did that when the Iranians took hostages they prevented Muslims from coming in exactly the same way. Of course That's okay just don't bother with history

CHAPTER 44 / 52 Discussion

Munich Shooter Profile and Left-Handedness

The Munich shooter was reportedly obsessed with Anders Breivik and targeted individuals of Turkish descent. An obscure detail noted from video footage was that the shooter appeared to be left-handed, which the hosts discussed in the context of cultural stigmas regarding the left hand in some Muslim societies.

munich· anders breivik· left-handed· mcdonald's· turkey

2:24:32 Don't just may add living. I think the guy's on his knees on his and talk to school he is Coasting, he's coasting his way out. He's given up Just a couple things on Munich. Now I read German, we have people in Germany getting a lot of good information and there's a lot of conflicting reports The one thing that is interesting is not a peep anywhere about guns here in the United States about these...about a guy shooting Not a peep! Not a peep about guns which you can buy guns- There was..oh hold on Oh there was? There was one peep Do you have a peep clip?

2:25:10 No, I don't. It was but it's a peep that in Germany where they have these very strict rules You know that are just onerous they said they should make him stricter Wow yes, it's not easy to To get yeah you can get weapons in Germany But of course the glock that he had had the serial number filed down according to reports so some report service doesn't make at this point So some reports say was his teenager who? who was being pestered and bullied by Turks. Some say he was inspired by the far-right terrorist Anders Breivik, who of course five years ago to the date went off and killed all those children, who would be the next generation of socialists... And I just want you to know... And by the way, the next generation of socialists is obviously hanging out at McDonald's!

2:26:01 at the mall. So it must be Breivik! And uh, and the media is all about you know, BREIVIK HAD A MANIFESTO?! No he had a compendium which is something very different than I read the whole thing and we even discussed that we talked about his compendium which is a collection not it's not a manifesto...at all The only thing I felt odd is or that was odd if this guy was a Muslim which I guess now he is but were still not really sure The one thing I found of note is that he's left-handed. And depending on what kind of Muslim you are and where you were raised, and your parents... You may not be encouraged to use your left hand for a lot of things because we've discussed this There's issues with left and right hands particularly in Muslim nations So this guy was a Lefty the shooter at least it was shooting with left

2:26:58 I'll also say he was a bad shot. Man, the people at McDonald's? He just missed half of them if not all of them but he was a lefty and it's pointless throwing that out there Well that's one of those little obscure tidbits we get on The No Agenda Show and nowhere else I'm gonna show my support by donating to NO AGENDA Imagine all the people who could do that Oh yeah! That'd be fab! On NO AGENDA And I'm going to ruin it by saying what you just heard is two professionals who know how to cue each other. You do this all the time! I can't help it, instead of relaxing on your laurels... I need to deconstruct myself. You nail it and then you have to stand there with your Mussolini look How good was that?

CHAPTER 45 / 52 Discussion

Marijuana Legalization and "Healthy Surprise" Edibles

The hosts discussed the evolution of marijuana legalization in Washington and Colorado, noting that initial "panic" and long lines have been replaced by a more relaxed retail environment. A donor associated with "Healthy Surprise" sent a box of items, leading to a discussion about the growing market for CBD and THC edibles.

marijuana· seattle· washington· colorado· cbd

2:27:53 I just want to point out to people how it works and i'm sorry. You should be sorry because they can understand how it works when they have it happen, they go oh it's too subtle! It's not too subtle okay well let's thank a few people for helping us starting with Jared Meisner in Bellevue Washington Seeing that there's a lack of producers, he gave us a small donation. He says and hopefully the donations will pick up some steam soon now we're hoping for that too. Joe Ulmer in this is a good name for a town Dingmans Ferry Dingmans Ferry Dingmans Ferry 100 bucks you can take it look at his notes if he's got anything in there It's a lot of writing

2:28:42 He's turned on to the show by my best friend and started listing around show 800 I have yet to donate but feel compelled to do so now. Yes, she says finances may be are tight as I'm in the field of social work She's a social worker helping us out, but honestly he says there's no price that can be put on sanity. Thank you very much Joe. There is another sanity successful sanity saving sanity guy yeah John Ananda in Santa Rosa California $100 now okay I have to stop this is the healthy surprise guy Wow Well, I don't remember this being his name. That's not his name No but he has the healthy surprise...I got a box with some stuff in it and he has the healthy surprise logo written on the healthy surprise letter You know what? I think his name was Joe actually Maybe J-O-H-G No, no, Joseph Winky But i think he sold it Ok well then he sold to this guy

2:29:45 Now the guy is making edibles. That's what Joe is doing? Well, there's probably... I don't know what's going on. Yeah okay. They do have a note on healthy surprise letterhead Did you get edible from him? I got some stuff from him that's interesting Oh man! Alright Thank you for your persevering so long with... Okay, let me try to read this. This is written in a printed handwriting that's not the best probably for good reason thank you for it that's a joke that he'll get thank you for perservering so long with no agenda I've come to take almost for granted of this show with this last spate

2:30:28 horrible news violence. I don't want to go near reddit.com, let alone MSM and be bombarded with death news porn no agenda is a way to stay up-to-date which is true and sane thank you! I listened to a recent show when you discussed CBD and THD and he said it talks about the what we discussed on those show about the benefits of medical marijuana right He says, and he goes on with more interesting stuff which I'll send you a copy. Now he wants us to call out some people. Okay just one guy. He wants to call Jeff Marcy as an institution. Anyway i think he's part of the scene that is going on there's alot of stuff happening

2:31:23 I'm going to go up to Washington in like next couple of days or next week, I guess. And um...I'm gonna start visiting some of these places that sell all this stuff because when they first opened- and i will say this little story Seattle had a marijuana- Washington took longer to put their law into effect than Colorado did and when they did there was a bunch of these shops one in Seattle I remember it took pictures with a line, a mile long. And all those little shops in Port Angeles were only open for like a couple hours a day where all got the huge lines to go forever

CHAPTER 46 / 52 Discussion

Republican Platform on Online Pornography

The 2016 Republican platform labeled online pornography a "public health crisis," a stance that was widely mocked by mainstream media. The hosts discussed the potential societal impacts of easily obtainable pornography, including changes in interpersonal behavior among millennials.

pornography· public health· republican platform· millennials· social trends

2:32:03 And I think it was just panic. There was like, oh God this is not going to last now that everyone's relaxed into it and nobody's really propagandizing the way they were or let me they're still doing it but it's not as bad Mimi says the shops are you know? You just walk in there's a few old ladies in there and everyone's looking around and she says everything's overpriced but it's like there's no line you Just go in right so things are changing This is a major deal I agree I totally agree Okay, onward. Just one thing he mentioned about the... He said porn? I just needed to bring it up so you can pay attention to it The Republican platform says online pornography is a public health crisis and this is being universally laughed at not scorned not disproved laughed at by the media Laughed at! And I tend to agree Oh, I totally agree This is a public health crisis

2:32:59 That's for another show. I just wanted to throw that in so people can pick up clips of this meme going on because Democrats are all for, really it's and i'm just telling you from women I know who at later stage in life have divorced separated and they date younger people, more millennials. And to the T every single one says when did sex get so rough? It's a little rougher than it used to be. It's a little more aggressive but the change is real and it's not necessarily good I would have to...I wouldn't argue with you different topic for different time Not that we...you know porn is amusing No they're not saying that at all But yeah I agree if we didn't have it wouldn't be missed as far as I'm concerned

CHAPTER 47 / 52 Discussion

Final Donor Acknowledgments and Global Reach

The show concluded with a long list of donations from listeners in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Finland, and the United States. Many donors contributed "boobs" amounts ($80.08) in response to a newsletter image. The hosts thanked the "Gitmo Nation" for their continued support under the value-for-value model.

The landline and the phone should be made out of Bakelite Everybody is time with a tech horny to move out of the way as we bring in the true Tech News John I think you have something I do. In fact, that was a thought hey you got a brand name your names Ed Snowden everybody knows who you are worldwide. Do a product. An NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden has helped design a mobile phone case he says will alert a user when their phone is potentially being surveilled speaking

CHAPTER 49 / 52 Discussion

Edward Snowden's Anti-Surveillance Phone Case

Edward Snowden, collaborating with designer Andrew "Bunny" Huang, unveiled a mobile phone case designed to alert users to electronic surveillance. The device is intended to detect RF signals that indicate a phone is transmitting data even in airplane mode. The project was presented via video link at an MIT event, sparking debate over the ethics of working with the whistleblower.

edward snowden· mit· stingray· rf· andrew huang

2:43:03 Speaking via video link to an event at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Snowden and his co-designer Andrew Bunny Huang showed how the external device could automatically shut a phone down if electronic eavesdropping is detected. Snowden also said while most people assume it's impossible for phones to be listened to while in airplane mode, governments possess the technology to eavesdrop even when people think they're safe. You know, when Obama was in town we've talked about this on the show. My son was in the vicinity of the hotel he was staying at. Viper? Well actually it wasn't there was something beyond vi... uh... Was it Viper and it's not Viper? It's mosquito or something. Stingray! Killer Orca killer whale stingray We got it And he says that all the phones were surveilled and they were drained There was no battery life left Here here's my question

2:44:00 How can you... that MIT work with a felon or a suspected felon, or an alleged felon. But someone who was on the... Is this? I mean you're not allowed to even send PayPal and put the word Alu Akbar in the description How can you be involved in selling phone cases with a guy who is arguably one of the most wanted guys to return to United States for prosecution? Is that legal? Can you do it? Is it ethical? I think, well as far as i'm concerned it's fine but whether it's legal probably there's probably some thing he's been on a lot of video links with a lot of different people over the years so i don't see that anyone is being prosecuted and ethical? Well they want to sell a product. I don't know and how is it unethical

2:44:56 And what if you agree with the guy, you know? He's a patriot not a traitor. Wait a minute we have everyone saying... well we have lots of people in government saying he's a traitor and people who want him prosecuted should they then not say hey MIT not while he's not been prosecuted or not or they just let it go because it's cool and it's a limited hangout and whatever we talk about but it's just bullshit Well, I think everything you said is part of the plausible. But yeah, The Washington Post actually did this whole article about Bran Snowden which we have talked about since the minute we... I think it's coincidence they did that article and then this thing comes out

2:45:43 No, this article was about this thing coming out. Oh I didn't know that because i never read the article Edward Snowden comma The Brand I don't trust the Washington Post, I've said it before It's hard to but you know like wow who gives a crap? It's like its phone case that when it detects RF it will light up Well, it has to... I don't know. It has to detect a certain kind of RF. Like this has to be within our frequency range. Yeah that's because RF is we're being in and we're being bombarded by RF. Yeah, I agree it would have yes true. It would have to be very close proximity low power and maybe they can filter in some frequency ranges yeah you could do a band pass filter and just pick out specific signals that shouldn't be a problem my god why do I even know this crap

2:46:38 Because I studied that's why because you're a ham. Ham, that's right You're gonna save the world one day gonna save the world my friend Thank you, that was it for tech news for today there's nothing else you need to know I have really two quick packages I wouldn't mind getting one out of the way. I'll let you choose black lives matter or a for killing Syrians, Americans killing Syrians. Oh! Americans killing Syrians? Americans killing Syrians I'm glad you chose that because this is a report packaged up and i've put little pieces together here of the RT Hadi her name is Chaya I believe Chaya yeah Chaya Chaya um and she is the nemesis the arch-nemesis of John Kirby who cannot handle this woman

CHAPTER 50 / 52 Discussion

US Civilian Casualties in Syrian Air Strikes

State Department spokesperson John Kirby faced intense questioning from RT reporter Gayane Chichakyan regarding US air strikes in Manbij, Syria, that reportedly killed dozens of civilians. Kirby defended the military's efforts to minimize collateral damage while acknowledging that the US makes a "calculus" regarding potential civilian risks before strikes.

john kirby· syria· civilian casualties· manbij· state department

2:47:29 And it shows, and this is very unprofessional what he's doing. I think it makes him and the State Department look bad... ...and makes you look suspicious and like a douche! We now have the report which started back in January that the US targeted certain targets in Syria... ...and they had to make a calculus about the possibility of civilians also being killed And it turns out that this strike they did killed about 50 civilians. And so Shaya brought this up with Kirby. The US strike that reportedly killed around 20 civilians in the ISIL-held city of Monbeach in Syria, was it a mistake? On Monday

2:48:19 That's another great accusatory question you've asked here. No other military works as hard as ours, none! No other military in the world to prevent civilian casualties and when they happen again I'll say it again because apparently didn't sink in the first time when it happens we investigate fully and completely and then were transparent about it and then we take the lessons learned and try to prevent from happening again. Oh okay well she's pushing... By the way By the way, this guy must... I don't know who this guy's wife is. And again, this is a typical Navy type guy who would say something like well, I guess it didn't sink in the first time! This guy has got to be the worst husband in the world. I want those little women out there listening to this guy and you know men like this? Oh, I guess it didn't sink in the first time, you idiot! He totally mansplained her

2:49:10 Yeah, totally. He mansplained her! It was rude... The guy is a horrible douchebag why is he representing our country? Here's part two Just to be clear one Is one too many and we take each and every single instance seriously so it's not It's not about the number. And don't for a minute think that we take any particular number more seriously than any other." Now, I'm going to go back in time with you for a moment—man, I should have had my little harp sound that always makes it so much more authentic—we're going back in time to January of 2016, to Barbara Starr of CNN reporting on this calculus risk. One official telling CNN the U.S. was willing to risk up

2:49:56 up to 50 civilian casualties in this area, to get the building- to destroy the building. That was the report and that's significant not just for the fact of what it is like yeah we did a calculation we want this particular piece here we may kill 50 civilians it turns out according to Chaya was 20. Yeah! We can do that sounds like a good plan And of course she is not relenting, but she gets shut down. The policy is not zero tolerance for civilian casualties. This is true the policy is not... She's telling the truth! The policy is we make a calculus how many civilians which what do we call them collateral damage or actually we categorize them as hostile

2:50:42 people, something. It's all kinds of little names." She is right! The policy is we'll calculate how many of them will kill. She is right. The policy is not zero tolerance for civilian casualties at this point? I've already explained to you our policy and our approach to civilian casualties. I don't think I need to explain it any further. Just the day after the mass strike yesterday... Yes sir, go ahead please. Yes sir yes sir yes sir yes sir Go ahead please Hold on a second. DOOSHBAG What a dick. That guy's the worst. Unbelievable I don't know why he even got that job, he was an admiral in the navy this is- this job is so beneath him Well he was the spokeshole for uh DOD and for the pentagon So this is what he was doing

CHAPTER 51 / 52 Discussion

Puerto Rico Debt Crisis and Predatory Lending

A report from the Refund America Project detailed "predatory" lending practices in Puerto Rico, where the island borrowed $4.3 billion but faces $33.5 billion in interest payments. These "capital appreciation bonds" function similarly to payday loans, with some deals deferring principal and interest for 47 years. Major banks including Goldman Sachs and Citigroup were named as lead underwriters for these deals.

2:51:30 Except he was doing it for defense and he got kicked out, you remember? When Asgard... When Asgard... It's a sucker state to take him that's for sure. He is no good! No, you're right. Put the women back in this job! Anything you want to wind up with, sir? Yes I do. I want to get this out of the way once and for all we've talked about this the way the post office was treated and that fact that they've been screwed over and everyone thinks are a bunch of lazy A-holes when in fact...and they can't..they're going broke when in fact none of this is true as we've discussed Puerto Rico! We've talked about this a little bit yeah but I want to get this out of the way Puerto Rico is a target of the

2:52:12 The banks, IMF? The banks. No the hitmen, the economic hitman yes and I think it's a test to see if we can do this to other states to screw them, to screw the states or in this case a territory with an onerous banking Tricks. Start with the Puerto Rico payday loans. By Sakib Bhatti, director of the Refund America Project and a fellow at the Roosevelt Institute. He's co-author of the new report, Puerto Rico's Pay Day Loans. Carlos Gaisa and Sakib Bhatti we welcome you both to Democracy Now! And Sakib I'd like to start with you in your report if you could lay out for us some of the main findings of your study? a

2:53:11 The island borrowed $4.3 billion and will pay back 33 1⁄2 billion dollars in interest, that's an effective interest rate of 785%. And what we're finding is that this is actually just the tip of the iceberg there's actually a lot of debt Puerto Rico has entered into that is either legally or morally illegitimate And so my organization, the Re-Affine America Project, we're actually going to be releasing a series of reports over the next couple of months that will look at the different ways in which Wall Street banks really targeted Puerto Rico with predatory deals and really calling on the permits control

2:53:50 board to be put in the interests of the people of Puerto Rico first, to cancel the illegitimate debt so that we can properly fund services. So keep name names. What are the banks and what's actually—how are they responsible for this debt? Yeah, so basically there were a series of banks including Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, now Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, UBS, Banco Santander. There were the lead underwriters on these deals that really targeted Puerto Rico for these immense interest rates So the way so these these payday loans are called capital appreciation bonds and the way these funds work is very much like a payday loan where because you're not allowed to pay back the principal or the interest for many years and Over time, the interest keeps compounding. You end up with astronomical interest rates And so what happened over there was because you had the situation where?

2:54:41 You know, Puerto Rico is a colonial economy and not in charge of its own finances at the end of the day. There's so much pressure coming from the outside because those issues couldn't be resolved in the same way that a cash-strapped family trying to put food on the table might go to a payday lender because they have to make ends meet. You had Puerto Rico trying to put food on the table—you Run they provide basic services needing to find ways to make ends meet and banks whooped in Banks succeeded group Goldman Sachs and said hey here's a deal even though They knew that these deals would be really bad and Puerto Rico never we ought to pay them in the long run. Well Wow I'm gonna give you borderline for that one

2:55:22 I had no idea. This is great, good stuff and listen then part two of kind of wrap it up and it's one of the end you look at this and you realize that this was I think a test run for what they're going to try to do with all day loans all station yeah exactly holy moly I think that's the point that they had to know the underwriters had to know that there was no way that Puerto Rico would be able to pay these loans back I want to put if we can on the screen for the television viewers. And for radio listeners, by the way you can go to democracynow.org Oh Jesus! Why throw that in there? You doofus... That's dumb. Anyway sorry. I'd like to put on these are some of the names of the companies that you see their Goldman Sachs AG Edwards Bear Stearns JP Morgan Morgan Stanley UBS investment

2:56:16 Lehman Brothers, Santander Securities—popular securities. But I want to show also the chart of one of the bonds that were issued. This is a 2007 sales tax bond where it shows for instance that in—Puerto Rico borrowed several tranches of bonds, but one was for $98 million dollars that was supposed to be paid back I'm sorry, $97 million that was supposed to be paid back in 2054. That means for 47 years the banks agreed you don't pay us any principal and you don't pay us any interest for 47 years! And at the end of the 47 years that $97 million becomes one billion dollars that Puerto Rico has to pay back.

2:57:08 a thousand times what the original loan was. So, the banks had to know that there was no way that Puerto Rico could pay this back but yet they continued to issue these bonds. Fantastic! Capital appreciation loans has got to be my favorite quote It's unbelievable. Loan sharking has now become capital appreciation loans Yeah, and this is the banks that we're gonna end up having to deal with more and more with the bankers that are trying you know taking all their efforts to push into Hillary And if they don't get a Hillary and they get Trump The banks gonna pull the plug on the economy They're gonna try to sink this guy yeah these bankers are out of control
